(They enter the theatre. Yes, I spell it theatre. Anyway, the enter the theatre and sit down.)
Mike:
All right, let's see what it is this time.
Bob: It's strange Megabyte didn't tell us what
fic it was.
Servo: Yes. How odd. Moving on...
Crow: You guys are acting weird.
Mike: Hey, you always act weird. We're
getting even.
Crow: Oh. Well.
Trouble Has Come v. 4.1.1
Bob:
Huh?
Mike: Deja vu.
Crow: I thought we already did this!
Mike: Well this is unexpected.
Mike:
So, wanna make the same jokes?
Crow: Nah. Let's make new ones.
Mike: Okay, whatever.
Synopsis: All is well in Mainframe.
Servo: I am so happy.
Megabyte is somewhere in the Web, Silicon Tor has been deleted, Hexadecimal good, etc.
Servo: I am happy, etc.
Hack and Slash (being the nosy things they are)
Crow:
Saaaayyy.... this isn't the same on we MiSTed before!
Mike: What?
Crow: This must be the un-revised edition!
All: Ohhhhhh!
look around the P. O. at all the buttons.
Crow:
(Hack) Look. It's a button.
Servo: (Slash) Hey, it's another button!
Crow: (Hack) AND ANOTHER!
Servo: (Slash) This is so cool! ANOTHER ONE!
Hack (the red one) finds a button that says, "Portal".
Bob: Uh-oh.
They do their usual griping
Crow:
(Hack) Button.
Servo: (Slash) Button!
Crow: (Hack) BUTTON!
('You push it!' 'No you push it' Every time I push something something bad happens)
Bob: That's not true.
until Hack presses it, creating a Portal in the P. O.
Servo: What is important about that?
Unfortunately, Hack and Slash twiddle some dials and end up sucking all the Sprites that were in the P.O. into the Portal.
Bob: All the sprites in the P.O? Uh-oh.
But almost all of the Sprites were in the P.O. anyway.
Bob: Hey, it wouldn't have mattered anyway. There are always a lot of sprites in the P.O.
Hex was in Lost Angles,
Crow: Yay!
but hears of the news and hurries before it's too late.
Crow: Boo!
She goes in, it closes, and then something bad happens...
Servo:
Gee, I wonder what.
Mike: Was that sarcasm? I couldn't tell.
Servo: Uh... I'm not sure myself!
Bob: All right, let's see the difference between
the stories.
Bob:
Was that line there before? I think not.
Mike: Bob?
It was a beautiful day in Floating Point Park.
Bob:
Ah ha! It's never beautiful!
Mike: Bob?
Bob was there with Dot just sitting on a bench, thinking of past times.
Bob:
I would never do that! HA HA HA HA!
(Mike cuffs Bob. Bob slumps over)
Mike: He should be fine when he wakes up.
Crow: Ok then.
"Well, Dot. I have to congratulate you." Bob said.
Mike:
(Bob) I think you are the most illustrious buisness worker in the
history of all computer data systems
Crow: (Dot) Aw shucks.
Mike: Crow, Dot would never say "Aw
shucks". I don't think anyone ever says that.
Crow: Well... I DON'T CARE!
"On what?" Dot said.
Mike: (Bob) I already told you.
"Being the sucessful business woman you are! I don't think anyone could store all the things you own in their memory!"
Servo: I bet I could.
Dot blushed. "Thanks. How about we go get an energy shake from the diner?"
Crow: Awww... how sweet.
"Okay."
Crow:
Yet you just go "okay" and leave it at that. Thank you
Bob!
Bob: What? Ow my head...
Crow: AAAA! He awakes!
Meanwhile, Matrix and AndrAIa were at the diner with little Enzo.
Crow: Uh-oh.
"Man this is so alphanumeric! Megabyte is gone, and Hexadecimal is non-viral!" Enzo said.
Mike: Yeah, woo woo.
"Yeah, but still random." AndrAIa said.
Crow: So? That's what makes her her.
"Some things never change." Matrix said.
Crow: Hey! You wanna mess with me?
Bob and Dot came in.
Bob:
I'm in the story!
Mike: You've been in the story, Bob.
Bob: REALLY?
Enzo bowled him over, of course.
Bob: Dang! Why can't the kid forget or something?
Mouse and Ray were just zipping around town just looking.
Crow:
Just looking? How boring.
Mike: I think this was changed...
Meanwhile in the P.O., Phong was looking through the files in the Read-Only Room.
Mike: (Phong) My glasses are here somewhere...
"Hmm. Ah yes. Access Viral History Information." Phong said. The screen showed him the history of Megabyte and Hex. Suddenly Phong gasped. "Oh dear! I must get everyone!"
Servo: (Phong) Everyone! Here!
5 nanoseconds later...
Servo: (Phong) That was quick.
Phong spread the news to everyone. They quickly sped to the P.O.
Mike: How fast do they get there?
"What Phong?" Bob said.
Bob: ... panting and gasping from running a couple miles.
"I have accessed some very important information from the Read-Only Room. Come! I shall show you!" the old sprite said.
Servo: (Bob) I'm too tired. Let's do it some other time. Night night. ZZZZZZZZ...
Elsewhere in the P.O., Hack and Slash were looking around.
Mike: Uh-oh.
"Wow look at all of these buttons." Slash said.
Crow:
Why are there all
those buttons, anyway?
Bob: Hey, don't ask me.
"Yes! Ooooo, look at this one!" Hack said.
Crow: Red. Shiny.
"What does it do? Hey the label says 'Portal'"
Servo: Yes, what does that mean?
"A portal! Wow!"
Bob: (Hack) I never se- Oh wait. They do never see a Portal.
"Push it to see what happens!"
Mike: Why do you have to push it?
"No you push it!"
"You!"
"You!"
"Everytime I push something something bad happens!"
Crow: Is this almost over?
"Okay, I'll push it."
Crow: Yay!
Hack pushed it, and a
Bob: Portal.
Portal
Bob: It was pretty obvious.
appeared in the Read-Only Room, which Phong and the others had not gotten to yet.
Crow: Oh really?
"What happened?" Slash said.
Mike: You've created a Portal in the Read-Only Room!
"I don't know.
Mike: I just told you!
Maybe if I turn this..."
"And I push this..."
Servo: Something will happen?
At that point the Read-Only Room door was pushed open, and almost at once the sprites got sucked in.
Bob: Wow, that was quick.
In Lost Angles Hexadecimal was on her throne, looking through her looking glass.
Crow: (Hex) I think I'll copy that Lewis Carroll story.
She saw what was happening at the P.O. and gasped.
Servo: (Hex) Gasp!
"Oh dear! I must save them!" she said. She hurried there, but by now Hack and Slash had
Crow:
...been waiting for Hex with open arms.
Bob: Arms as in guns.
Mike: Oh that's nice.
gotten the portal right in front of the door to the P.O. Hex was sucked in.
Crow: Oh well. Now what?
"Should we stop?" Hack said.
All: Duh.
"Yes." Slash said.
Mike: But how?
"Okay! How do we stop?"
Bob: Wow. They're thinking the same as us!
"Let me press this 'Close' button." Slash did and the portal closed.
Servo:
Slash is finally smart! YAY!
Bob: Wait... with no Portal, how the heck will
we (in the story) be able to get back to Mainframe?
Servo: Um.... moving on...
"All done!" But then a tear appeared above the place where the Silicon Tor used to be.
Crow: Uh-oh.
It became a Portal, and something came out of it. The portal closed, and the something yelled out some words. He then opened a Vidwindow. It appeared before Hack and Slash.
Bob: (Hack) Hello person!
"Hey who is that?" Hack said.
"I cannot see. He is covered by something." Slash said.
"Thank you Hack and Slash. Now I can control all the Viral binomes again!" thew cloaked figure siad.
"Uh-oh" Hack and Slash said together.
The cloaked figure began to use some magical powers to bring all the turned-non-viral binomes back to viral state. He quickly called them all to G-Prime.
"Now that I have everyone back, and all the sprites gone, I can rule Mainframe!" the cloaked figure said. The viral binomes cheered. But in the shadows a One and a Zero were watching.
"Oh no! Zee viral binomes have come back to life! Hurry! We must go to the lab!" the One said. They pulled out zipboards and hurried to Level 31.
The pair landed in front of a restaurant next to Al's called The Lab. He went in.
"Ah! Professor Einnome! Good to see you!" the waiter said.
"No time! Zee viral binomes have come back to life! We must stop them!" the Professor said. He went through a locked door to his lab. He rummaged through his inventions. "Ah! Here it is!" He ran out of the lab, giving a gun to his assitant, and sped off.
Back at the P.O. Hack and Slash were arguing.
"You shouldn't have pushed it!" Slash said.
"Me? You were the one who said 'Let's go look around'!" Hack said.
"Well you pushed it!"
"So what?"
"Everything!"
"Wait. We ahould stop this person before Mainframe is doomed."
"Doomed? I do not like that word!"
"Forget it."
The two sped off towards the viral binomes arguing all the way.
The first target of the evil binomes was the Diner, which was quickly diminshed, except for one little part, which Cecil was hanging from.
"This is not good for business!" he cried.
The viral binomes split into groups, taking over a little at a time.
Meanwhile the scientist and his assitant sped towards Taskbar Towers, hoping to save the binomes there.
"Hurry Professor! There are the virals!" his assistant said.
The two hurried inside, unnoticed by the other binomes.
"Here zey come!" the Professor said.
Yeah it was short. But good! Next up: 4.1.2: Under Viral Rule.
