Arcade Ambush (Fantasy High the Musical)

(gunshot) Man, I thought you were cool. I thought you were like me. Huh. Guess not. The walls start vibrating. The floor shakes. An insane fantasmagoria begins to enshroud the arcade. Where the machines end, the lights begin, and endless sound and noise forms this chaotic wonderland. All right, time to throw down, I guess. Uh... hey guys! Uh, Biz is a bad guy! Yeah, no duh! I mean... I thought he was like a "bad guy" but, no, he's like... a REAL bad guy! I've been saying this whole time... Woah!

B-Better luck next time... No, no, no, no, no! Riz's face appears in an empty palimpsest in the wall. (overlapping) Fu- Riz! Ugh! How do we get him out? I don't... I don't know. Danielle downloading... (overlapping) No! God damn it! We've got to stop this. We're running out of time. Download complete. (overlapping) Ugh! S

It's worth a shot (phone ringing) Come on, come on, come on...  please pick up... (Hello?) Mom, I- No! Gorgug disappears, getting sucked into one of the video games. The ghosts close in, surrounding Adaine and Fig. Ooh, I want to pilot that one... (crash) Ugh! No way, b[ __ ]! Move over, let me try.... haha! Invoco et arcanum, invoco- Invoco et arcanum, invoco- I

nvoco et arcana- Invoco et magicu- Invoco- Invoco- Invoco-! Boo! Adaine is overtaken by arcane fear, unable to do anything but run away. Meanwhile, Fabian faces down against a group of ghosts on the other side of the arcade. Bring it on! Ha! Yah! Ha! Oh, no no no no... s[ __ ]! Hey! Antiope Jones here. Antiope! Alright, player. Let's see what your skills are. Time to dance! What? I thought this was a fighting game! One, two, three, four! Nice! Great! Perfect! Perfect! Perfect! Perfect! Per-Per-

There's no escaping our grasp You've walked right into our trap and though you show your disgust, you'll be a loser like us! Nooooo! I don't want to be a loser! Fabian also succumbs to his

fear, unable to do anything but run. Are you terrified? Uh-huh! Cause I'm terrified! Ahhh! Ugh, oh my god... Sam downloading... How many are left? (I don't know... maybe two? Three?)

Go go go go! Download complete. Time is running out for our Intrepid Heroes. We cut to Riz, who is trapped, stuck in infinite crystalline fractals. Hello? Is anyone here? Riz? Penny! Riz is that you? Penny! Yeah, yeah it's me! Uh... I think we're f[ __ ]ed. That's terrible news, but... it's good to see you. It

's good to see you too. People are disappearing, I... it's getting quieter out here, Riz... I know, just hang in there, I'll think  of something I'll- Penny downloading... No. No... No! Time has run out, Riz. I'm so sorry. You need to know, I don't blame you for not saving me (Time is out, Riz...) (Time is out, Riz...) (Time is out, Riz...) (Time is out, Riz...) (It's worse than you think...) No... no no no no! Bye, Riz... Penny! No... Download complete. I've been f[ __ ]ing up this whole fight.

I can't do anything right Think, Riz, think... you still don't know: Where did they download? Where did they go? Couldn't solve the case. Couldn't find Penny... and now it's too late I still don't have any clues any leads and I'm stuck in this palimpsest! Sharpen your claws and your wit. It's time to stress test this fractal prison. Let's take these systems out of commission I'll slash and I'll claw I don't care if I bleed,  I need to stop them I need to succeed! This one's for Penny. I see

them! Is that... is that the...  AV room? At school? What? Back in the arcade, Riz has done some real damage to the machine. What the... Hey! Hey, cut that out, what the f[ __ ]?! At the front of the arcade, the corn pillar is really f[ __ ]ing these ghosts up. (combat noises) Ah! So phallic! Go corn dick, go corn dick, go! Go corn dick, go corn dick, go! A noise from Gorgug's phone catches his attention. (Gorgug are you there?) Mom! I forgot I called you! (What's going on, sweetie?) What is th

e quickest way to shut down your power source, it's an emergency! (Well, the fuse box is in the  front of the store...) Can I just smack it? (Oh, I wouldn't smack it...) My friend's going to die if I don't! (Yeah, I guess... aim for the wires!) (beep) (ghosts plotting and whispering) Woah! Look at this guy, what a freak! Let's leave a permanent streak. Now reach in... and SQUEEZE! A shock of Gorgug's hair turns white. Zelda downloading... No! Zelda! (Time is out) (Time is out) (Time is out) (Ti

me is out) (Time is out) (Time is out) Download complete. No... Guys... Riz is next. We have to get him out! Hey. I got this. O tempus breve est magicae auxilium me De muro tradita me Nice! Thank god... Don't worry. I got you, Riz. Fabian, in his fear, has fled all the way outside the Arcade. Ah, master! Master what are you doing? I can't go back in there- Snap out of it! I can't, I- (crash) Ow, ow! Ow, all right, okay! Good! Come on! Shaken out of his fear, Fabian climbs aboard the Hangman. Th

ey burst through the doors of the arcade. He drives 10 feet and is immediately sucked into one of the games. Oh, no, no, no! Not again! Ugh! Player one, start. Let's race! What? How are we supposed to win? This game looks... nearly  impossible. The odds are twenty to one (twenty to one) There's no escaping this one, but... I'll try it roll the dice (twenty to one) I'll fail once, but not twice (twenty to one) No one can out run (twenty to one) Fabian (twenty to one, twenty to one) No one can o

ut run Fabian! Fabian, hey! Where have you been? Um... there were a bunch of ghosts out front, I confronted and dealt with them  accordingly. Guys, what do we do now? All the girls are gone! I don't know I guess we  just... kill Biz? Where did he go? Over there! Look! Haha! All the girls are downloaded, you LOSE! Game over, you're free to go... Hahaha- (punch) Huh. That was anticlimactic.
