Here's another chapter. Can you guess what game I'm in?
I forgot to mention in my previous chapter. If you want to know more about the video games, cartoons, anime and/or movies that I used in this fanfiction; look it up on the internet (Wikipedia, Youtube, Google, etc).
Disclaimer: I don't own anything here... only myself.
I've find myself in a world. The background is black, there're grey platforms everywhere, there're some blue solid pipe like things and some red solid pipe like things. I look around and see… some brown things everywhere, some on the floor, some on the grey platforms and some in the air. I have no idea what they are.
A guy with white hair, wearing a lab coat, is at the top left corner on a platform. He looked like a scientist. He quickly walks toward a red pipe which is closed. I wonder how he was going to get through when all of a sudden, the red pipe lower itself down, allowing the scientist to walk on top of it. The red pipe rises up to the top with the scientist on top of it. It stops at the top platform. The scientist runs onto the top platform, toward the rope and climbs down it. He picks up a plant that was sitting underneath the rope… or is that a vegetable? I'm not sure what it is but he took it with him.
I look to the right and see a weird looking… thing. I'm not sure what it was. It looked like a green and yellow monster… or maybe an animal? Whatever it is, it looks like trouble. The scientist drops the plant and runs to a safe place. The monster walks to the plant and starts to eat it. The scientist sneaks past the monster and carries on collecting the brown things. I watch as the blue pipes and the red pipes open and close whenever the scientist is close by. It looks as if it was moved by magic.
I look around and see a robot overlooking the whole stage. This robot has a square face with two big eyes, slim body, arms that are connected together and a big block for feet. Next to the robot are a red button, a blue button and two spinning tops.
I watch the robot as he takes a spinning top and places it on the blue button. As soon as he did that, all the blue pipes move. The scientist moves past the blue pipe and towards a red pipe. The robot takes another spinning top and places it on the red button. It causes all the red pipes to move. I realize what is happening. Whenever the robot presses the red button, it moves all the red pipes, and whenever he presses the blue button, it moves all the blue pipes. One of the spinning tops fall off the button. The robot tries to find it but is having a difficult time finding it. I run over to him and pick up the fallen top which was hiding behind a big control. I give it back to him. The robot thanks me by nodding his head to me. He carries on helping the scientist through the stages. I watch in amazement as the scientist and the robot work together to get through pipes, collecting brown things, avoiding the monsters and squashing the monsters using the pipes. I just hope that the scientist doesn't get squash by accident. At the end they collected all the brown things and stop the monsters.
After that, I walk around the place in search for a way home. I look around only to see another scientist walking slowly through a stage. He has his eyes closed and is snoring lightly… "HE'S SLEEPWALKING?!" This doesn't look good. He has no idea what is going on. I quickly look around and see the control for the pipes. I quickly run toward it and press the button to open the pipes. The scientist slowly makes his way home. I was relief until I notice that the sleeping scientist has walk out on the other end of the house and into another stage. I open and close the pipes to help the scientist to return home. I had to be extra careful not to squash him by accident.
Just when I through it was over, he sleepwalks out of the house again. This time the stage is even more dangerous. Left over monsters are roaming around the stages. I had to carefully plan it so that the scientist will avoid the monsters. I panicked as I watch the scientist sleepwalks toward a monster. I try to wake him up by shouting at him but he wasn't waking up. I thought he was done for… until he climbs up the rope. He was climbing the rope while sleeping. I'm very glad that he is okay. I help him gets through the stages by opening and closing the pipes while avoiding the monsters as well as squashing the monsters. When he finally safe at home, a portal shows up and sends me back to my home.
And the game is... Gyromite on the Nes (Nintendo). When I first played this, I had no idea how to use the R.O.B. I also had no idea what those things are (and by things I meant everything in the game). It still a fun game to play.
I looked up on Wikipedia and found out about it. The brown things are dynamites. The monsters are bird like creatures called Smicks (I thought they were some kind of germ). The plants is actually a vegetable, turnips. And I found out about the names of the scientists. There's Professor Hector who is player 1 (I used him for the first part) and Professor Vector who is player 2 (I used him for the sleepwalking part).
