| Chapter One |
| Nick: (excited) I can't wait til we get in there! I want lots of tokens too! Kevin! Kevin? Hey, are you listening to me? Kevin: Unfortunately, yes. Nick: Hey! Brian: Don't pay any attention to him Nick. He's in a foul mood because he has to come to kiddieland. Nick: (trying to remain calm): This isn't Kiddieland! This is Chuckie Cheese! I used to come here for all my birthdays! You guys just don;t know how to have fun. AJ: (snorts) Suuurrreee, Nick. Howie: Are we going in or what? Kevin: I guess we are. Lead on, Nick. Nick opens the door and all five boys troop inside. The place is full of kids that are fighting, crying, and screaming.Kevin rolls his eyes and AJ actually puts his hands over his ears. Brian prys them off. Nick: All right! let's go! Kevin goes over to the counter and pays for the package of 200 tokens and three large supreme pizzas.Plus Nick's birthday cake. Nick: Ohh... Playground (pointing to the playground-you know the one with the ball pit and slides and tubes.) Come on Brian! AJ: Aren't you a little young to have developed such a big mouth? Annoying little girl sticks out her tongue. AJ sticks out his tongue. Kevin: (Looking up at the sky) Why me? A siren goes off and about a million kids jump in the ball pit. Kevin: What the he- (Starts to swear) Kids start to stare Kevin: What the heck was that? A boy around ten years old: THere's a silver ball in the pit. Who ever finds it get either a hundred tokens or that really big Chuckie. (pointing to a huge doll of Chuckie Cheese.) AJ: COOL! (Starts to dig, looking for the ball) Kevin: (shrugs) If you can't beat em, might as well join em. (starts to dig) AFTER ABOUT FIVE MINUTES AJ: (pulls the silver ball out of the pit) I FOUND IT! All of the kids turn to AJ and stare...for two seconds. They attack him and wrestle him for the ball. AJ: (gasping for air) Kevin! Help! Kevin: ( prying kids off and threatening them) I'm working on it AJ... stop it.... i'm gonna tell your mom. I mean it. Don't make me have to....OWWWW!!! Annoying little girl: Serves you right! AJ: What happened? Kevin: Some kid jut bit my leg! AJ: Kev, I'm gonna lose it! Kevin: (remembering what's going on) Oh right! (pulling off kids again) AJ: I lost it! Annoying little girl: (climbs out of ball pit) That's cause I have it! AJ: (sits up and points at the girl): Get her! All of the kids dive out of the ball pit and chase the brat around the restaurant.Kevin helps AJ to his feet. Kevin: You okay? AJ: (Staggering) Sort of. I'm sure i'll get the full feeling of my legs back someday. Now lets rewind back to when Nick, Brian, and Howie first left and see what trouble they got into. Nick is in the lead, Brian's in the middle, and Howie's following Brian. Nick: I wanna go down the BIG slide. Brian: ( rolls his eyes) Just go Nick.I don't happen to want to look at your butt all day. Howie: Preach it brother! Nick: Ok, ok, ok, you guys need to take a nap. Brian: ( Whispereing to Howie) I think Nicky's lost it. He's acting like he's five or something. Howie: ( Shrugs) Maybe They round the corner and to the left is a small spaceship like thing. Nick: Awesome! (climbs in) Come on guys, We can squeeze in. Brian: Oh lord. Howie: Just humor him Nick: Let's pretend we're Batman and Robin and Howie you can be...Superman who is our new found friend, I'll be Batman, Brian you're Robin. Brian: Duh Nick: ( humming the Batman theme song) Dun-dun-dun-dun-dun-dundatah-Batman! Quick Robin into the batship! You drive. I'll watch for enemies! Superman! You beat up any kids that who try to take over the ship. Howie: Batman doesn't have a space ship. Nick: It's the year 2173. Besides...(grinning) ...humor me. Brian: (getting into his role) Oh no! There's an asteriod coming right at us! ( pretends to swerve the ship out of harms way) Ahh... nevermind. Problem solved. Batman! We have to land soon. Should i prepare? Nick: Yes Robin, do whatever you have to do. We have to save Batgirl from the Joker! Howie: I, Superman will save her! You two will go and save the world form Catwoman and The Penguin. Are you ready? Nick and Brian: Yeah! Brian pretneds to land the ship and the boys climb out and follow each other up the tubes... until they reach a certain tube.This tube has netting. They are pretty far up ( at least ten feet) and the netting doesn't look particularly stable. Brian: (terrified) Uh uh. no way. Nick: What are you talking about? Brian: What if this stuff breaks? There's no way i'm crossing. Howie: C'mon, Bri... I mean Robin. Cross it. Watch, i'll go across first ( pushes past Brian) Howie gets across without problem. Howie: ( give's Brian a 'I told you so' look) Come on. Try it. Nick: (giggles) And may the force be with you. Brian: (rolls his eyes, but cracks a smile) Ok.. He crawls across slowly and manages to get to the other side. Howie and Nick: Yeah! Brian: (looks up at the sky and folds his hands.) Thank you Next page |
