Ch. 2

That night. Otto and Reggie's house:

Otto:  Hey why did everyone bail on me today?

Reg:  Because of the way you were acting Otto.

Otto:  Huh?  What did I do?

Reg:  You were whacked!  You totally slammed Twister, and me don't you remember?

Otto:  I can't help if I'm the best.

Reg:  There you go again. You're not THAT great.  And even if you're a LITTLE better than us you don't have to talk about it ALL THE TIME!

Otto:  I don't!

Reg:  Whatever Rocketboy.  Just chill with all the bragging for a while.  I think you really made Twister mad today.

Otto:  Fine.  But I still don't see what the big deal is.

Reg:  I give up!  Goodnight Otto.

Otto:  Night.

The next day at the Shack:

(The gang is eating breakfast)

Otto:  So what are we going to do today?

Twist:  I want to hit madtown and practice for Saturday. 

Otto:  Sure, but I'm still going to….

Reg (interrupting):  Otto, remember?

Otto:  Oh yeah.  I mean…Bro, madtown sounds like an awesome idea.

Twist:  I have an idea for a wicked new move that I want to try.

Otto:  The competition is two days away, there's no way that YOU can master a new move that fast!

Reg:  OTTO!!!

Twist:  Oh YEAH?  We'll see!

Otto:  Fine.  Lets go then.

(They all skate off to madtown)

Raymundo:  What was THAT all about?

Tito:  Looks like a big storms brewing, Brodda.

Ray:  Really?  It doesn't look like rain outside to me.

(Tito sighs)

At Madtown:

(Twister wipes out for about the 50th time trying to do his new move)

Otto:  See, I told you he couldn't do it.

Reg:  He's getting better at it though.

Sam: Yeah, I definitely see some improvement.

Otto:  He will never get it before Saturday though.

(Twister skates up to them)

Twist:  Oh man!  I'm never going to get this move.

Reg:  Just keep trying, Twist.  You're getting a lot better at it.

Twist:  You really think so?

Sam and Reg:  Yeah!!

Otto:  Yeah, maybe you'll get it after all Twist!  (Thinking to himself—in an alternate universe where you can also make straight A's.)

Twist:  Ok, I'll keep trying!
Otto:  I'm bored…lets go play street hockey.

Twist:  You guys go ahead, I'm going to keep practicing.

Otto:  Come on bro!  We need you!  How can we play with three people?

Twist:  Sorry dude I really want to get this move.

Otto.  Fine.  I guess Reg and Sam can play against me.  I'll still win though.

Reg:  In your dreams Rocketboy, lets go!

(Reggie, Otto and Sam skate off.  Twister keeps practicing all day and all of the next day too.)
