Animeland, part 3
"Try not to make it too boring, Ritsuko."
Asuka's voice was there and then the image came.
"Hmph. I'm the factual person of the
tour. Go run along and play or something." Ritsuko shooed Asuka away. "Don't
listen to her. She's mentally unstable. Let's go to the garage." After
what seemed like walking through a maze of paths, they arrive at The Garage.
"This is a pretty big garage if you
ask me. I didn't think there were cars 10 stories tall." Someone commented
on the size.
"There aren't." Ritsuko replied. They
walked in and realized why is was so tall. "The garage keeps everything
from cars to mecha and everything in between. Each 'vehicle' is kept in
its own area which are separated by a thick wall. The area that it is in
is customized by the owner of the 'vehicle.' The same rule applies here
as it does to their own personal rooms." She gives a brief smile.
"Hey, you need any help?" Technicians
from every anime came over to see. "Oh, hey Ritsuko. What are these
people doing here?"
"It's a tour. We're leaving now, don't
worry about it." Ritsuko seemed to share their distaste but it wasn't as
strong.
"Who allowed them in here?" He seemed
to mean more than The Garage. You could hear some disagreements in the
back with the way they were acting.
"Fen-chan let us in here!" Someone from
the back screamed out.
"How dare you say her name like that!
It's Fen-SAMA to you!" One technician screamed back. "She's much better
than the lot of you in every way, which includes manners!"
Somewhere out there…
Fen is on a line to pay for something,
probably clothes. "Damn! I've been standing here for SO long! How slow
are they?!" Just then, a snotty younger girl almost cuts her. "Hey! What
the hell do you think you're doing?! Get in back of the line like the rest
of the world!"
"Who the hell do you think you're talking
to, bitch?!" The girl retaliated.
"YOU! Bitch!" Fen yelled back. 'I
hate standing and waiting on lines! And here is this girl cutting me like
she owns the freaking place!'
"You better take that back or else!"
"Or else what?!"
"Or else I'll kick your ass so fast--"
"Are you having a problem, Fen-chan?"
Van came up behind them with his sword by his side. (Fen decided it would
be fun to go shopping with Van, so she pulled him out of his humiliation
*cough*training*cough* and brought him with her.)
"Yes." The other girl eyed her up and
down while she did the same.
"Well, since it's your problem, you
should solve it for yourself. If you need me, I'll be over there." He pointed
somewhere but no one was paying attention. He started to walk away when
he noticed.
"Van, you jerk!." Fen called back before
she got a slap across the face. She thought it would be fun to punch the
girl, so she did. Before you know it, a fight was starting and everyone
was crowding around yelling "fight, fight." (conclusion of the fight at
the end of the STORY! Not chapter, story!)
Back at The Garage…
Everyone was heading out of The Garage
with bruises and scrapes from the fight they just had, except Ritsuko.
"Okay, now that that's over, we can
head over to The Portal." They ended back in the house through a side door
or back door, no one could tell. They headed to Basement 4.
"But I thought you only had 2 basements.
That's what Shinji said." Someone noted.
Ritsuko sighed. "We have six floors
and four basements. I don't know what's wrong with Shinji. He's mentally
unstable too." They walked down an endless hall almost. The farther they
walked down, the more plain everything looked. By the time they got to
the end, it was a stone floor with stone walls and metal doors and light
fixtures from a prison.
"Where are we now?"
"We are now in front of the door to
The Portal room." There was a door labeled 'Portal Room.'
"What's the portal room?"
"It's a room with a portal."
"Where does the portal go to?"
"It leads to the other 'anime' world.
It is the American cartoons, or any other cartoon but anime." They walked
into the room but it wasn't a room. It was like stepping into space, when
the door closed, they were in space, but with air. And in front of them
was a miniature spiral galaxy, which was the portal. It was followed by
ooo's and aahh's.
"This is so freaky!" A few screamed
out.
"How does it work?" A sensible person
asked.
"You have to think about the world you
want to go to and then you just step through. Not many do it, but some
have and didn't like it. They don't like to speak of the other worlds most
of the time." Ritsuko opened the door that looked misplaced in the
'room.'
"Wow, that was nice." A few said.
"Okay, well, that's the end of my part."
Ritsuko put her hands in her lab coat pockets.
"What? That was shorter than the other
two."
"Well, I only wanted to do a part that
required information, since I'm the only one good at it. I wasn't even
supposed to take you to the Garage, but Gendo caught the flu." Ritsuko
seemed tired and that she also had the flu. "So, off you go now. Turn that
camera off."
