I love my job.
Chapter 2: Reala Gets Pwned (typo on purpose)
NiGHTS burst through the doors of the filming room at SEGA Studios. "GUYS, GUYS, GUYS!"
"WHAT, WHAT, WHAT?" everyone asked loudly in the same manner.
The purple Nightmaren giggled, like she had a really big secret and she was about to reveal it. "I have something to tell you."
"What is it, NiGHTS?" Helen asked.
But NiGHTS looked around at everyone first, a huge grin on her face.
Reala became impatient and he crossed his arms. "Out with it, woman!"
Will gave Reala a quizzical look, then looked back at NiGHTS expectantly.
Finally, NiGHTS blurted out, "I MADE IT!!"
"WOO! Yeah! All right!" Helen and Will whooped. Their cheering subsided, then they asked. "Made what?"
Just then, Jackle burst through the door. "NiGHTS made something? Is it cake??" he asked excitedly. "Is the cake for me???"
NiGHTS shook her head, "It's not--"
"AWWWW! Why would you make cake but not give me any?" Jackle whined.
"No, I mean--"
"WAAAAAAAAAAAAAA!!!!!" Jackle started bawling. "You don't love me!!!!!!"
Reala smacked him. "That's right, she doesn't. Now get out."
Jackle sniffed. "Fine." And he left the room sadly.
NiGHTS then continued, "As I was saying, I'm gonna be in Brawl!" She jumped up and down and clapped her hands happily. "Isn't it great?"
Jackle came through the door again, his sadness replaced by new joy. "Hey, if you're gonna be in Brawl, can I be an assist trophy??"
"No." NiGHTS said immediately.
"Aww..." Jackle thought for a second, then asked, "What about a regular trophy?"
"No." NiGHTS replied again, more annoyed.
"...A sticker?"
"NO!" they all shouted.
"Aww!" he left again, and everyone's attention was on NiGHTS.
"Wow, congratulations, NiGHTS!" Takashi Iizuka smiled. "This is going to be a great opportunity to expand your career. When do you start working?"
"Tomorrow from 9-6." NiGHTS answered eagerly.
Will frowned. "But that means you won't have very much time left here. And we still have lots to film."
"Not to mention you're in most of the scenes." Owl added. "How will you find time for two games?"
NiGHTS shrugged. "By doing what I always do best."
"Doing everything wrong?" Reala muttered.
"What did you say?"
Reala glanced up nervously. "Uh, I said I wanna play 'Pong'."
Everyone looked at the red jester strangely.
"What? It's Retro Day!" Reala lied, slightly embaressed that he came up with something that stupid. He turned his back to everyone. "Stop staring at me."
All eyes turned back to NiGHTS, who said, "Anyway, I'm sure I can come by for an hour during lunch."
"Sounds good," started Takashi. "Well, now that you're here, we can finish filming Helen's intro scene. Places, everyone!"
The actors got in their respective places and waited for the camera crew to get set up. Finally, they gave the signal and Takashi announced, "Action!"
After NiGHTS un-Dualized with Helen, Owl noticed a door appear. "The door to Nightopia has appeared!" To Helen, he said, "You must have an Ideya!"
"What's an Ideya? And what's Nightopia?" Helen asked.
Owl explained. (I don't think you wanna hear his explaination again, and I don't think I wanna write it. That would be boring.)
"Oh, enough with the explainations! Let's check it out, Helen!" NiGHTS said. She turned around just as Reala was flying right at her. But something happened in NiGHTS' brain and she got the sudden urge to fight. Instead of letting Reala tackle her into the door, she dodged her co-star.
"Urg!" Reala grunted his trademark hurt noise as he collided with the door.
NiGHTS immediately barraged Reala with attacks she would only use in Brawl.
"Ow! Yurg! Hey! What the--? HEY!" Reala spoke in between punches and kicks. He tried to block NiGHTS' attacks, but she was too good.
"NiGHTS, stop!" the others cried.
But NiGHTS ignored them, or didn't hear them. "Time for a FINAL SMASH ATTACK!" she declared, holding up high her Dragon Persona. But before she could do anything else, Takashi snatched the Persona and yelled, "CUT!" Everyone who wasn't involved in the fight grabbed NiGHTS and pulled her away from Reala.
"NiGHTS, what's wrong with you?" Takashi asked, concerned.
NiGHTS came back to her senses and blinked. "What...what just happened?"
Will laughed. "You just beat the crap outta Reala! It was hilarious!"
Helen looked frightened. "Are you feeling ok, NiGHTS?"
NiGHTS looked at Reala, who was holding one eye, and realized what she had done. "Oh...Oops. I thought I was in Brawl for a minute..."
Reala managed to stand up. He glared at NiGHTS with his good eye. "What were you trying to do, kill me?"
"Reala, I'm sorry..." NiGHTS apologized sincerely. "I didn't know what I was thinking." She reached out to comfort him. "We can start over..."
But Reala quickly flew away. "No way! You're crazier than Jackle!" Before he left the room, he said to everyone, "I'll be in my trailer."
NiGHTS sighed. "Oh dear. I hope I didn't upset him..."
Will rolled his eyes and Helen shook her head.
The director/producer then sighed too. "We'll try again tomorrow." he told everyone.
NiGHTS looked down and rubbed her arm. She couldn't believe she had attacked Reala like that. She would never do that, especially not to him. So what made her do it?
Jackle opened the door. "Ok, can I at least make a cameo in the "Subspace Emissary"?"
"NO!!!!!"
As you can probably tell, NiGHTS is getting a dark mind...sorta. Please review.
