To Insure Success

Five students walked into the area early Saturday morning, none of them appearing to have had a good night's sleep. Despite their individual outfits, they each were wearing a special ankle bracelet.

"Why are we doing this again?" Nathan asked.

"Because it'll help our grades and absences." Damon answered. "Plus it makes us have more than thirteen reviews."

"Oh yeah. " Nathan said.

"My bra's too tight." Laura muttered as she fidgeted with her undergarment. Nathan, Damon, and Marc, the three boys in the group, stared at her. "Can I do this without you three drooling over me. Seriously, go get laid."

"Hello." a middle aged man said appearing seemingly out of nowhere. "You the five students from Degrassi?"

"No. We're the Power Rangers." Laura remarked.

The man clicked his tongue. "Okay… My name is Johnson. Simply Johnson. Got it?" The five nodded. "What we're going to do today is shoot five car insurance commercials with you guys, alright?"

"Wait a minute," Damon said. "So we skip school, fail tests, and the only way to make this up is to do a commercial where we will be paid as well?"

"He-" Laura was shocked painfully before she could get the word out, causing her to shriek. "What the f-" She was shocked again by the ankle bracelet. "Stop that!"

"The ankle bracelets that you wear stops you from using any form of swear words." Johnson said looking at Laura, who was now hopping up and down on one leg as she attempted to rip the ankle bracelet off with her bear hands. "It will only come off when all five commercials are shot, Ms. Reynolds."

"That's stupid." Laura said. "So what do we do?"

"Glad you asked." Johnson said. "I'm going to go over there and call out one of your names at random. After I call for action, the commercial will commence and the others need to step past that red line." Johnson pointed to a red line to the group's left. "Got it?" The five nodded. "Good. We'll begin shortly."

"What about our lines?" Nicole asked.

"Oh don't worry about it. I find that your natural responses will be better." Johnson said walking away.

Nathan looked at Nicole, gaining a smirk from Laura.

"Are you done staring at her?" Laura asked.

"I'm not staring at her. Da-" Nathan was shocked. "I was going to say dang!"

"Nathan Hogart. You're up." Johnson called. "Clear the stage." The other four walked to the line Johnson had told them about. "Actors ready? Action!"

Actor, Mike McGlone walked up to a strange background.

"Could switching to GEICO really save you 15 percent or more on car insurance?" Mike McGlone paused before looking back at the camera. "Is Godzilla really big?"

A random Asian man ran to Nathan.

"Is Godzi… What kind of dumb question is that?" Nathan asked.

"It's Godzilla!" the Asian said while pointing before running away.

"Oh…" Laura began.

"My…" Damon added.

"God! Nate! Look out!" Nicole called before a large dinosaur's foot crushed Nathan.

Laura burst into a fit of laughter while the other three looked on. The large Godzilla recreation walked off of the set. Marc, Damon, and Nicole ran to check on Nathan, whose body was shaking violently.

"He's having a seizure!" Nicole said.

"No. He's cussing up a storm." Mike McGlone said. "As soon as he keeps quiet, he'll be fine. Hope you five learn to stay in class and do your work. Oh. And get GEICO."

As the actor walked away, Damon helped Nathan out of the large footprint.

"I hate this." Nathan said as Damon helped Nathan across the red line. Marc and Nicole followed while Laura attempted to stop laughing. "I hate you."

"I… I know! Oh God you should've seen…! 'It's Godzilla!'" Laura laughed.

"Alright. Next is Laura Reynolds." Johnson called. "Give her the car!" A silver BMW convertible was pulled in front of Laura. The woman that was previously driving it, got out of the car and handed Laura the keys. "Action!"

"F…" Laura paused in her language. "Alright! I got a new car!"

"I don't believe it." Nathan said.

"Do we all get a new car?" Nicole asked.

"Who cares? This is awesome!" Laura said before the car was set ablaze. "What the f- Aah!" Laura screamed as she electrocuted. Nathan snickered. "Whatever. I know what to do." Laura stepped across the red line and sighed. "Like a good neighbor, State Farm is there."

A man appeared with a clipboard. "Hey Laura."

"How the 'heck' does she have an agent!" Nathan called.

"That jingle is good." Laura said.

"My turn!" Nicole said. "Like a good neighbor, State Farm is there-"

"With a table of food!" Marc called before a buffet table of breakfast foods appeared. "Yes!"

"No," Nicole said as Marc and Damon went to get something to eat. "With Laura's secret crush."

"What?" Laura shrieked before Jayden appeared in nothing but a towel, a tooth brush in his mouth.

"Really?" Jayden said to himself.

"Didn't see that one coming." Laura's agent said.

"Cut! That was great!" Johnson said. "Someone get the pedestrian off of the set!"

Jayden was led to the others, clutching his towel around his waist.

"Okay," Jayden said to the other five. "Tell me how I got here."

"That's easy." Nicole said with a smile. "I sang the jingle and asked them to-"

Laura elbowed Nicole, causing the girl to immediately hush.

"What jingle did you sing?" Jayden asked.

"The State Farm jingle." Nicole said.

"You guys do know that you can ask for one more thing." Laura's agent said.

"Please. Get him some clothes." Nathan said before Jayden was now fully clothed.

"What? No! Get me back home!" Jayden said before Laura's agent walked away. "Someone sing the jingle again!"

"Sorry. We're onto the next person." Johnson said. "Marc Milligan, it's your turn."

"Great." Marc said before putting his plate down.

Marc walked to the set while everyone else stood behind the read line, Damon and Nicole eating at the table.

"So let me get this straight," Jayden said. "Some guy calls all the failing losers up to do a bunch of commercials for car insurance, which none of you have, and in the midst of this, Nathan gets stomped by Godzilla and Laura's BMW goes into flames where I was wished here."

"That basically covers it." Nicole said as a new Chevrolet Tahoe pulled beside Marc. "He gets a car too?"

"Man, I can't wait for my turn!" Damon said.

"Action!" Johnson called.

Marc got into the driver seat. "This is great."

"Drive it around." Johnson said.

Marc began to drive the truck around. A few minutes later, Dean Winters was standing in-between Laura and Nathan.

"I'm a dear frolicking in the woods. I hear that the grass is greener on the other side, so I'm going to go see." Dean Winters then walked across the painted road in front of them.

Marc, who was looking at the features, looked up to see the man.

"Holy sh- Ah!" Marc shouted in agony as he swerved into a telephone pole that, again, appeared out of nowhere. "Godd- Ah!"

"Don't end up like that guy. Switch to Allstate and protect yourself from mayhem like me." Dean said before walking away, leaving Marc in the car, being electrocuted severely for the string of obscenities he wanted to say.

Jayden chuckled a bit. "So every time you guys swear, you get electrocuted?"

"Yeah. It's not that bad if you ask me." Nicole said.

A few crewmen carried Marc over to the others where he lied on the floor.

"You don't look to good." Laura said looking down at him.

"Where'd that guy come from?" Marc asked.

Laura shrugged. "Beats me. Maybe you should've sung the jingle."

"Shut up Laura." Marc said.

"Next, Damon McBride." Johnson said. "Clear the set. Add prompt. Enter Damon. Action!"

Damon walked onto the set to see a bunch of shelves lined with boxes.

"Really? I get a box?" Damon said picking one box up. "Motorcycle insurance? I don't even ride my bike."

"You need help?" actress Stephanie Courtney, alias Flo, said from behind Damon.

"Uh, yeah. All of my friends got cool cars and insurance and all I get is a few boxes." Damon said.

"Well here." Flo said handing Damon a remote. "You can try out our prices and compare them to your friends and see how much you'd save if you chose Progressive."

Damon pressed the button and watched a few numbers appear on a board on the wall. Grinning, he did it again.

"Wow. This is a cool device." Damon said.

"It's called a remote honey." Flo said.

Damon frowned. "I know that you- Ah!"

"And cut! Great work Damon!" Johnson said as Damon limped towards the others, mumbling about dumb cashiers.

"Uh, Nicole, you're going to have to come with us. We kind of ran out of ideas." Johnson said. "We're going to have to give you a wardrobe change."

"Sure." Nicole said. "Be back Jay."

Jayden frowned. "Why is it that every time something happens, I'm somehow involved?"

"No one invited you." Laura said. "So go back home or whatever gay-den."

Jayden sighed. "It's ten o'clock in the morning and you're calling me names. Great." Jayden looked around. "Am I the only sane person in this room? Why are we here in the morning? Where are the teachers that are supposed to be supervising this? How did Godzilla even fit inside here?"

"Look, asking stupid questions is just stupid so just don't." Marc said.

Jayden looked at him questionably. "How in the hell did you manage to get to the tenth grade saying the dumbest things like that?"

"Wow." Nathan said.

Jayden frowned. "Wow? What are you…" Jayden's words died as he, Nathan, Marc, and Damon saw Nicole walking towards them. "Wow."

Nicole now had on tight leather shorts that stopped mid-thigh and a leather jacket. Hoop earrings and red lipstick were also applied to the girl. She also had black heels on that gave her more a bad-girl appearance than a hooker. Though, in the boys' minds, Nicole could role play either at the moment. She then sat down in a chair.

"Like this?" Nicole questioned.

"Great. Action!" Johnson said.

A car pulled beside Nicole before a woman stepped out.

"D-d-d-Danica Patrick." Damon stammered.

Danica Patrick stepped towards Nicole and grabbed the girls jacket before ripping it open, revealing the tight GoDaddy tee-shirt Nicole wore underneath.

"That's hot." Danica Patrick said before her lips neared Nicole's.

"And cut!" Johnson said as Nicole's lips were centimeters away from the older woman's. "That's a wrap."

"NO!" the boys shouted in unison.

"You did well kid." Danica Patrick said before getting into the car and driving off.

"Aw come on!" Jayden said. "I get wished out of my bathroom in a freaking towel, they eat all the good stuff for breakfast, I'm spending another Saturday morning with Laura, and you cut off the only freaking good thing that this morning has to offer!"

"Yep. Besides, they've earned enough credits to pass this year." Johnson said. "Stay in school kids. And drive safely."

"Hey Jay," Nicole said. "Could you give me a ride home?"

Jayden smiled. "Sure Nicky. Let's go."

The two began walking away as the others watched.

"Well, I'm satisfied knowing one thing." Nathan said.

"Oh yeah? What's that?" Laura asked.

"Unquestionably, undoubtedly, and undeniably, you like Jayden McDuelle." Nathan said.

Laura sighed. "Like a good neighbor, State Farm is there with Godzilla."

The large beast appeared again and Nathan took off.

"I hate you Laura!" Nathan shouted/screamed as the monster chased him off.

"No one speaks of this, deal?" Laura said. Damon and Marc nodded. "Good."


Author's Note: Pretty random webisode, I know. All I think about is "Is Godzilla really big?" And what Damon was talking about earlier when he said "Plus it makes us have more than thirteen reviews" comes from two reviews I received from Hey it's me Megan D and mUsIcLoVeRr3 who have both gave the same review and said "only thirteen reviews?" Anyway, I have more reviews now, but more wouldn't hurt. Till next time.
