Disclaimer: This is the section of chapter 2 deemed a waste of your time. I
really see no point to typing it again, but just to make those uptight
people happy, here it is. I do not own Metal Gear or any characters
associated with the game. I trust we're all happy now?
Author's Note: No reviews yet huh? I guess I'm not loved. ::sniffle:: …or maybe you're all just lazy. Either way, reviews would be nice. I don't write this for myself, I enjoy writing for others.
Chapter 2: Technicians and Tankers
::We rejoin the cast and crew of Metal Gear 2 on their second day of shooting on the tanker. The first thing on today's agenda is the visual effects for the first day of shooting. A simple cloaking visual. In theory, Snake should disappear and be replaced by a slight distortion in the air……in theory.::
Snake: So…uh…how does all this technical junk make me invisible?
Technician(A/N: Henceforth known as "Bob"): Well, it's quite simple really. First I open this horribly complicated program on my $5,000 dollar notebook computer. Second, I enter a 20 digit sequence to……Snake?
Snake: Brain no function cigarettes well without…::thud::
::20 minutes later…::
???: Hey, Snake?! Snake, answer me! SNAAAAAAAAAAAAKE!!!!!!
Snake: Unnn…whoever the hell is yelling in my ear, shut up now!
Otacon: Oh sorry, I was just practicing my lines, and you were out cold, so it really helped the mood.
Snake: Say..Otacon…did you steal my smokes earlier?
Otacon: Uh…I see you've got a modified M9. Let me just explain to you how that works!
Snake: Quit changing the subject!
Otacon: You quit it!
Snake: You're such a baby! Baby!
::Snake squints his eyes and sticks his tongue out at Otacon as Raiden walks up to the group wearing some fancy $200 dollar sunglasses, and eating a bagel.::
Raiden: I'm really getting into this director bit.
::Raiden studies the awkward scene before him, then is heard to proclaim…::
Raiden: I see by your face you've met Olga already, Snake?
Snake: No. I was just…ah nevermind. A VR junkie like you wouldn't understand.
Raiden: You mean I wouldn't understand how sticking your tongue out at Otacon could be so horribly complicated that I wouldn't understand it in the first place, leading up to this conversation where I explain the concept of how I wouldn't understand the immediate concept.
Otacon&Snake: …Riiiiiiight.
Bob: Hey everyone! I'm done the visuals for the bridge scene. Would you like to see?
Snake: Let's take a look.
::Bob enters another horribly complicated sequence of letters and numbers, causing Snake to feel a bit dizzy and lean on Otacon for support. Otacon gives Snake an odd smile, and Solid bolts upright, then inches away from his partner. Meanwhile, last day's scene started rolling on the computer monitor. When Snake was set to disappear, he instead, turned into a rather grisly looking marathon runner.::
Snake: What the…??
Bob: Heh heh heh…
Raiden: Need I remind you we have a busy schedule to keep today, Bob?
Bob: Yeah, yeah, I know. That's just a blooper. I did a real one awhile ago.
Raiden: Good. Now, Snake. For the next scene, we'll have you appear to be jumping from the bridge, onto the tanker. You'll need a device to act as the cloak, of course.
::Raiden hands Snake a small device which he hooks up to his belt, and the crew take their places on the set. Snake gets up on top of some boxes, which he will jump off, giving the appearace of his bridge jump. And three men acting as marines take their places on the tanker (which is shot on location, of course).::
Snake: Ready when you are, Raiden.
Raiden: Great. Annnnnd ACTION!
::Snake jumps off the boxes, landing on deck with a thud. Just then bolts of lightning emmited from the cloak, which are supposed to be a mere visual effect created by sparklers. However, Snake started to convulse, and his eyes rolled into the back of his head as he collapsed on the tankers deck.::
Raiden: ::sighs:: Cut….that one was my bad. I must have handed him a tazer instead of the sparkler gimmick.
Bob: Yeah, you really screwed up this time…
Otacon: SNAAAAAAAAAAAKE!!
Raiden: WOULD YOU PLEASE NOT DO THAT NEXT TO MY EAR?!?!
Otacon: Oh…sorry.
Raiden: And somebody wake Snake up and give him the proper gimmick!
::Otacon does as Raiden ordered, and the scene is done from the start, flawlessly this time. Next on the agenda, is Otacon's basic walkthrough of Snake's weapons and control. The crew set up for the next scene when Otacon pipes up.::
Otacon: Ahem…I am a fish! THE DEEPS FISH!!
Raiden: …Maybe we should shoot that scene tommorow. Let's pack it up boys.
Otacon: REMEMBER THE DEEPS FISH!!
Author's Note: Wow, this is fun! I hope the empty space which fills this fic is enjoying it as much as I am. REVIEW BEFORE I DIE A SLOW AND AGONIZING DEATH! I mean..if you have time, that is. Thanks!
