Inky: “Hey Nico.” (Tired/Casual, as if she didn’t just push a random girl onto the floor) Scruffbag: (Groan) Narrator: “Nico, still with a smile on his face, looked down, puzzled at Scruffbag, and then with hope in his eyes at Inky.” Nico: “So…as I asked before, is that another friend?” (Joyous/Optimistic) Inky: “(sigh) No Nico, it’s another rat. Only this time the rat has a gift and IS NOT HERE TO STAY.” (Annoyed/Castual THEN Yelling for the ALL CAPS lines) Narrator: “Inky seemed to yell towards the ceiling, while Scruffbag sat up, her head (quite literally) buzzing with questions and dazed. But before she could be mad at Inky a voice echoed from the ceiling.” Coin: “Hey! I’m not a rat!” (Slightly offended) Nico: “Hi Coin!” (Greeting/Happy) Inky: “(An annoyed/angry sound) What doesn’t make you a rat?! You live in our walls, steal our food, and somehow still manage to get away with it! (Furious/Getting more and more annoyed as she goes on) Narrator: “As Inky continued to list more wrong doings on her fingers than Scruffbag could count, Scruffbag observed her surroundings. The blonde haired boy who kept smiling, and sitting on the crate was Nico, the annoying girl with a temper who pushed her into this “house” was “Inky”, and the rat inside the walls was Coin?? At this point Scruffbag’s head was spinning, but she leaped up anyway and placed both hands on Inky’s shoulders.” Scruffbag: “Okay, WHAT IS GOING ON?! YOU said that I would have a place to stay if I gave you food! And now you’re saying it’s TEMPORARY?! Who’s inside your walls? HOW is he in the walls? Why is that guy sitting on my crate? Oh, and there’s NO WAY your name is “Inky”!” (However you feel she would say it) Coin: “My names not Coin.” (Casual) Inky: “SHUT UP RAT!” (Angry/Annoyed) Coin: “Hey…” Narrator: “Nico looked to Inky, who’s blood appeared to be boiling, with an expression of about as mad as his smiling face could go.” Nico: “Inky that wasn’t very nice…” (Mad, not truly angry, just mad) Scruffbag: “IS ANYONE GONNA ANSWER MY QUESTIONS?!?” (Confused/A little bit crazy) Narrator: “Inky was fuming at this point and snatched the bag of food out of Scruffbag’s hand. Then proceeded to angrily answer Scruffbag’s questions.” Inky: “You only provided enough for a day, so you STAY for a day! A rat is inside our walls, I don’t know how he got there. Nico is the guy sitting on “your crate” and no, my name is not Inky but that is what I will be called.” (However, please make it match the situation!) Narrator: “Scruffbag’s expression was more confused than shocked, but both Nico and Coin became dead silent.” Narrator: “Inky opened a white, metal cabinet, proceeded to shove the food inside, and slam the door. She then proceeded to walk over to a wall, opposite to the one where she and Scruffbag emerged, and proceeded to draw a new symbol, only this time in the shape of an infinity sign.” Scruffbag: “Wait…where are you going now?” (Confused slightly mad) Inky: “Away from all this chaos. YOU can stay here.” (Calmer than before, but still mad) Nico: “...Inky…” (Sad)
Narrator: “Inky sighed but continued her art. Scruffbag, now met with the blonde boy’s sad expression, and the silence of the rat in the walls, found that Inky’s temper was a common occurrence. Then a realization hit her.” Scruffbag: It hasn’t even been five minutes since I got here! That girl has yelled at me and is already leaving! Narrator: “Inky’s spray can dropped to the floor and just as she was about to place her hand on the wall somebody slapped it away.” Narrator: “Inky didn’t flinch. She stared at her hand, then turned with a cold glare to the person who slapped it. A street girl rat stood before her.” Inky: “You have some nerve to slap me in the place I’m letting you stay. Rat.” (Cold & angry) Scruffbag: “Yeah. You had some nerve to slap me back in the overpass. MY place. And look, I told you I’m not one for “manners”, but I think that yelling at your roommates and then leaving your guests is over-the-top rude!” (I trust you’ll make this work ;) Narrator: “Inky began to boil again.” Inky: “I don’t have to let you stay you know! You're lucky you're even here!” Scruffbag: “Don’t change the topic! You're lucky I haven’t slapped you again yet!” Narrator: “In a fit of absolute rage, Inky shoved Scruffbag into the infinity symbol on the wall. Scruffbag caught herself, hands pressed against Inky’s graffiti, which began to glow…” Narrator: “Inky stepped back in shock, Nico’s mouth hung partially open in confusion and awe, Coin observed from an open vent in the wall, smiling. And Scruffbag, who didn’t realize that the infinity sign had begun to glow, pulled Inky’s arm just as the portal opened.” Scruffbag & Inky: “Huh….” (Confused…then) Inky and Scruffbag; “AHHHHH!” (As if your falling) Nico: “Inky! New friend!” Narrator: “Nico then proceeded to dive straight into the portal that the infinity sign created.” Coin: (sigh) Narrator: “Coin then jumped out of the open vent, took the bag of food the other rat had provided and jumped into the portal just as it was about to close.” Narrator: “The group landed in a pile (well besides Coin who somehow managed to land on his feet) on a hard concrete surface.” Nico, Inky, Scruffbag: “Owww…” Narrator: “As the group laid on the floor a familiar voice rang out….” Police #1: “CAN’T CATCH ME SLOWPOKES!!!” (Just like Scruffbag)
