*********OH OH OH OH!!! Guess what? For one, I'M 16!!!!! And for two, I'M GETTING A TATTOO!!!! And I'm seriously thinking about getting something related to Kingdom Hearts. Like just the heart symbol or somthin'. Anyhoo, here's the next chapter.
Chapter Two
Bella-Donna stood in her place just blankly looking at the monitor. That piece of paper was really 'there', and it 'was' here…So this is what Auntie Albie had been up to for the past few weeks. B.D. had expected a prototype of a time machine, a virtual reality game, or even another robot of some kind. At that thought her eyes traveled over to were the pile of failed androids were suppose to be. Yep still there. She had expected anything…but not this.
Albie was standing near by, her hand clenched in front of her excitedly and eyes wide behind the coke bottle glasses, waiting for a response. At the moment the girl was so happy, all B.D. wanted to do was to jump up and dance around like a trained monkey. She couldn't hold all of the emotion back and a huge grin spread across her face making the dimple on the on the left side of her face emerge. For a few moments she just kept grinning like an idiot at the screen until that little bit of sense she had left jumped into play.
"Wait, wait, wait, wait." her face was wiped clean of the happiness and was replaced with confusion and a bit of a laugh. "You can't just, just…BRING this whole world to life and not expect anything to happen Albie. I mean…ah, HEARTLESS! Big problem there! Won't messin' with all this 'other dimension' stuff cause a…a…I dunno, somthin' that always ends bad in the movies?!" she yelled and flung her arms around.
"Way ahead of you." the woman stated proudly and walked over to where the Playstation sat. "I've equipped the…uh, equipment so that it will only stay on this stage of the game. That is unless someone comes in and simply, pushes…the start button…" she started to fade out when she saw the look her niece was giving her.
"Okay so maybe it does sound 'very' easy to get the whole thing going. Even if it does start up, all we have to do is shut it off again. That is, unless someone is currently in there of course. But in turn that would wipe out everything that happened while…"
Bella-Donna wasn't listening to her aunt anymore. 'If someone is currently in there.' In there, Kingdom Hearts. Bella was still trying to absorb all of the new possibilities. She, herself, could actually be in that world. It would feel so good to break away from reality, and here her dear Auntie Albie was making it a possibility. Bella came back from her thoughts to catch the last part of her aunts speech.
"…so after the testing you'll be free to go on through my dear." she smiled and turned toward some plastic crates and started rummaging through them.
"Huh, wait, what testing?" Alberta sighed at her nieces short attention span, but answered the question.
"To see if humans can withstand the dematerializing and rematerializing, and the trip there and back again." she explained while continuing her search through the crate.
"And how are you gonna test this, dare I ask."
"Why my dear, with a test subject of course." Albie proclaimed while slamming on an old bicycle helmet with headphones and a microphone…super glued on? She noticed the odd look she was receiving and explained.
"So I can communicate with you while I'm in there, and this," she held up the remote to their old television. "Is so I can get myself back. But if anything does go wrong and the remote malfunctions or something like that, this button right here should bring me back." she finished and motioned to a button on the keypad of the phone booth. Grabbing her usual note taking notebook, Albie stepped into the booth.
"By the way Albie, when I go in…do I have to wear…?" she tapped on her head meaning her aunts helmet. Alberta gave a small laugh.
"Why no Bella. This is only a prototype. I know how you girls are…wouldn't want to look 'dorkish' in front of a 'hot boy' now would we?" she replied doing the best she could to say it in teen language, but failed. B.D.'s eyes went a little wide at her aunt saying that, but before she could say anything Albie started again.
"Just watch the monitor and flip the switch on the radio to talk." she raised her hand to her forehead to salute. "Well, wish me luck Bella-Donna."
The girl opened her mouth again to say something, but the flash of light flooded the room again and Albie disappeared. B.D. blew out a puff of air and looked toward the monitor to find…nothing? The beach of Destiny Island was just as it was the piece of paper and all, but she had expected to see Auntie Albie somewhere one the screen. And to Bella's confusion she was nowhere to be seen. This couldn't be good. Bella was starting to get a bit frantic. She searched and searched the screen, but her aunt wasn't there. Reaching to the radio the woman had pointed out before she left, B.D. flipped the switch and spoke into it.
"Albie?! Auntie Albie, you there?" she paused to listen for a response. Tapping her feet nervously, she continued to listen closely in the radio for any sound of her aunt. When she was about the repeat the call, the static broke from the other side.
"Yes, yes! Hello there deary!" the enthusiastic voice of the woman flowed through the speaker. Letting out a sigh of relief, Bella questioned her aunt about her whereabouts'.
"Where are ya? I can't see you on the monitor." she sat down in the rolling chair nearby and slid over to the screen.
"Oh, hmm. Well, I'm in what seems to be a shack of some sort. You know this place better then I do, what place looks like a small shack and has…what's this over here?" the sound of stumbling came from Albies side of the radio and B.D. rolled her eyes as the woman finished. "Uh, stairs…"
Bella stopped and thought for a moment. Stairs…shack. 'Come on, this is no time for a brain fart' she thought to herself. She sat in silence for a moment before cursing herself for not remembering. Duh.
"Okay, is there a door nearby?" she asked, a smile growing on her face.
"Let's see. Door, door, door, door, door…oh yes here's one!" she called and the sound of a door opening echoed through the radio. The static took over the speaker, and Bella looked toward the monitor with squinted eyes. She didn't have to look long before she spotted her aunt stumbling out of the Seashore Shack and into the bright light of the lush island.
Bella Donna watched as her aunt wadded through the thick sand that covered her old beat up sneakers. If she hadn't stopped herself, she was sure she would have let out a giddy squeal of delight. It all was just so hard to believe. Her thoughts drifted to all the hours she had played the game over and over, unknowingly memorizing every world, every room and every character that the brave keyblade master came across. And now all those things that she could remember on the dot were just a phone booth away. Bella was shaken from her thoughts when Albies voice rang through the radio.
"Bella? Bella are you there? This is the most amazing place I've ever been dear! The fresh salt air, the tropical weather, the green palm trees swaying in the breeze, the…very, large mosquito." she finished and Bella could see her aunt swatting at something as it flew around her head.
For the next half hour or so the 16 year old continued to watch her nutty old relative wander around the beach, and tried to stifle her laughter when the older woman tripped or collided with an object when she wasn't paying attention. All the while Bella was hoping desperately for one of the islanders to show up, but now life besides the occasional bug wandered upon the beach that day.
The day wore on and on until the sun that hung over Bella's home was finally overtaken by the darkness of night. To the girls wonderment, the sun that lit the beach of Destiny Island also set, leaving the whole island as dark and mysterious as the entrance to the Secret Spot. Before Bella knew it, the bright light that signaled the entrance of her aunt filled the basement and the batty old scientist stepped out and walked over to her niece with a big grin on her face. She motioned for B.D. to open and hold out her hands in front of her. When she did as she was told, Albie opened her own hands to let the souvenir she had collected spill into the girls hands. The crisp, glimmering sand that was still warm from the Destiny Islands heat.
*********Ok, this chapter was really boring I know, I'm sorry. But it felt kinda wrong to just throw her into the game right away. So, even though there's not much to review…DO IT ANYWAY!!! Please?
