The Soul Calibur Gang and the Summer Cookout
AN: IMPORTANT this story is a sequel to The Soul Calibur resort. So some relationships and references may not make sense at first. I do not own SCII and I would really appreciate it if you would write reviews for this story. Without reviews I don't know how to improve. Also I just become unmotivated and don't continue to write. Lastly feel free to give out suggestions for later chapters. I don't own any products you read about throughout the story. Okay here it goes…
Nightmare's Bad Day
It had been a little over a year since the gang had all been together for the resort. Nightmare and Sophitia were now married and Sophitia was nine months into her pregnancy. Mitsurugi and Taki were engaged, Voldo and Ivy were dating and Maxi now had his own cooking show on the food network. Life was good for everyone, and now since Sophitia was almost due Nightmare had invited everyone over for a break into summer cookout. They would be over the very next day, so naturally they were getting ready for the big evening.
Nightmare was shopping at the grocery store with a list Sophitia had made. "Okay I've got meat patties, bun, condiments…I just need charcoal." Nightmare looked around for some charcoal. Finally after asking a store attendant he found the charcoal. Nightmare then placed the heavy bag of charcoal onto the bottom of the cart only to have it break it. "Crap!" he yelled at the top of his lungs. A mother who was passing by with her child covered his ears. A security officer walked up to Nightmare. "Sir, please calm down." He said. Nightmare nodded his head and got a new cart.
He had been stressed out lately, with the kid on the way and he had been working hard to get a promotion at work. He went up to the checkout line, but when the cashier rang up the charcoal she sighed. "This doesn't have a price tag." She said plainly. Nightmare sighed exasperated he walked over to get a new bag of charcoal but found they were already sold out. Nightmare rushed back to the cashier to find the original bag missing.
"Excuse me miss what happened to my bag of charcoal?" asked Nightmare politely. "Oh some man came and bought that." She said plainly while chewing gum. "But I was going to buy that and I you told me there was no price tag." Said Nightmare becoming very annoyed. "You never told me to hold it for you, and I never said you couldn't buy it. We have bar codes this day in age." She said chewing her gum loudly. Nightmare's eyes widened with rage. "What the fck is wrong with you!" screamed Nightmare. The whole store got quiet and Nightmare blushed. The very same security guard walked up to Nightmare. "Sir I have warned you once you've got to leave the store now I'm sorry." "Please let me explain!" "I don't want to now go!" "B-But!" "No butts sir just leave the perimeter or I'll have to use force!" "Let me talk penis wrinkle!" Nightmare regretted saying that as soon as it came out of his mouth. The security guard pulled out a stun gun. "Sir I'm sorry it had to come to this!" The guard pulled out the stun gun and aimed it at Nightmare. "Don't worry this will only hurt for a moment." "
"Wait! Two black guys did it!"
"Where did they go?"
"That way!"
Nightmare pointed to his left the security guard thanked him and ran off. Nightmare sighed in relief and drove to work, his lunch break was over. At the office Nightmare went right to work sending files and writing papers. He worked at a big energy corporation now called INCYTE. His just was Publicity Coordinator. He would decide which Ads were good, where to advertise and would pass on notes to the executives about what people were in too and the satisfaction of the customers. However his dream was to be an executive member of INCYTE solving even bigger problems and bringing home bigger bacon.
A call from the phone sent him to the CEO's office Nightmare slowly entered his office. The CEO of INCYTE was the mean and very ugly Mr. Grey. Nightmare had heard Mr. Grey hadn't always been mean he used to be nice until he found out his wife was cheating on him with a college student. Nightmare sat down at the end of a long table. "Yes Mr. Grey?" Mr. Grey couldn't apparently hear from the distance they were apart so he pressed a button that chained Nightmare to the chair and rolled him and the table forward. Nightmare was now only four inches away from Mr. Grey and his bad breath. "You think you're all big and bad? I just got word from a very upset mother and cashier that you said crap and fck in a public place. Is this true?"
"No sir, two black guys did it."
"I may be ugly Mr. Nightmare but I'm not stupid."
"Black people have manners and make some of the best rock music in the world."
"Uh, I don't think black people make rock music really."
"What about Seal?"
"Seal?"
"You are a racist! And I don't employ racists, plus I'm laying off the division you work in anyway so you are out of a job. Have a nice day."
"What you can't lay me off! We need the division I'm in."
"Oh, you mean these crappy commercials?"
Mr. Grey turned on a large plasma screen to show one of Nightmare's commercials. A walking light bulb walked on the screen and into a house. "At INCYTE we work hard to make sure your energy runs hard. Don't you want a hard one? INCYTE is the longest and hardest energy company out there!" Mr. Grey angrily turned off the TV with a remote. "Since you've started passing this trash as a good commercial not only has the FCC responded negatively so have our customers have stopped using our company's energy by 15.
Nightmare was shocked he didn't say anything as left the office, packed up his stuff and drove home. When he entered the house Sophitia greeted him warmly. "How was your day?" she said. Nightmare stared blankly into space. "I got fired."
