SCRIPTS: Bubbles Great Adventure 1.1

 The first of my scripts where I started using the (borrowed from YPJ) methd of using pictures to accompany the story. Continuing with the Character of Bubbles The Ninja from Bubbles In Trubble I decided to do something based off the TV series LOST. I like this and there are some funny moments in it, or at least I like to think so.

Anyway, here it is:-

The Sober Chronicles - Chapter 15 - The Ark In Space

PREVIOUSLY
"Well..." says Noah as he steps aside "welcome aboard then."
AND NOW.....


"I can't believe the idiot didn't stock up on beer!" says Gav angrily as he banged his fist against the wall. "How much longer do I have to go without another beer?"
"Come Gav, there's nothing you can do now. Just accept the situation for what it is. Deal with it when you're in a position to do something about it and stop worrying what might be. Move on and forget about it till that time."
"You're right, thanks Joseph."
"No probs Gav, happy to help"
"Say, I noticed earlier you cringed when Noah said 'there was no room at the Inn', that have anything to do with your problems?"
"You could say that, in a way." Joseph replied. "You see, it all started when my wife got pregnant."
"Isn't that a good thing?"
"Not when you haven't slept with her yet it isn't. Y'see, I had my suspicions she was having an affair with someone in town, but she flat out denied it claiming she was a virgin."
"Well that's one of the lamest excuses I've ever heard."
"I stuck by her, but as the months grew, the lies and betrayal grew too much to bear and I had to find out who was the father so I took Mary with me and searched Bethlehem all over.
"I'm impressed you managed to suppress your anger that long."
"It was hard. Anyway, the night grew long and we needed to find somewhere to stay but everywhere was booked up. Time after time we were told there was no room at the Inn, until one kind gentleman let us shelter in his barn. That's why I cringed; it always reminds me of her betrayal."

The Sober Chronicles - Chapter 14 – Look Who’s Talking

PREVIOUSLY
"....I have a plan that is most cunning in nature"
AND NOW.....


On their way to Noah's ship, the skies darken with thick grey clouds and the rain starts pouring. By the time they get to the ship the rain is very heavy and they can just make out the words NOAH and SARK on the side.
"This must be it" says Joseph "So, how are we going to get on?"
"Just leave all the talking to me" says Gav as he approaches Noah who is standing guard.
"Good evening my fellow man..." starts Gav.
Noah interrupts "I'm sorry but we already have two of every species accompanying us. There's no room at the inn if you like."
Joseph cringes.
"You appear to be pretty strict about this.
"A man's word is his bond"
"May I ask, of the human species, how many are aboard?"
"Why, just the two of us. My wife Sark and myself."
"Forgive me, but did you not say that two of every species would accompany you and your wife?"
"..... yes." Noah says hesitantly.
"Then surely as you said two of every species would accompany you, that logically implies, even taking into account that you yourselves are human, that two humans would accompany you."
"I... ummm....." Noah stammers with a confused expression "I.... guess you're... right"
"Strictly speaking is all I'm saying" Gav hammers home.
"Well..." says Noah as he steps aside "welcome aboard then." and gestures them both towards the ship.

The Sober Chronicles - Chapter 13 - Going Forth

PREVIOUSLY
"All public houses in Jerusalem have completely sold out."
AND NOW.....


Gav says "The situation within which we currently find ourselves occupying is not at all favourable Joseph"
Joseph adds "It is indeed dire. So as a means towards arriving at a resolution, what is currently known about the aforementioned situation?"
"Supplies of beer have been exhausted as a result of the impending climatic situation. I have no beer. I require beer." explained Gav.
"Let it also not be forgotten that all life is expected to expire during this event save for those animals that Noah will be taking with him."
"With, Joseph, the obvious exception of both creatures of the sea and air."
"By extension then, our only course of action would be to secure a place on Noah's vessel."
"It would also be reasonable to assume that being the last of the human race and put in this situation, Noah would have stocked up on beer for the duration."
"As was noted in the report however, salvation is only to be granted to the animal kingdom"
Gav sits back in his chair with a smile and finishes "Fear not Joseph, for I have a plan that is most cunning in nature"

The Sober Chronicles - Chapter 12 - Waterworld

PREVIOUSLY
".....they set off towards the pub."
AND NOW.....


"I must let you know Gav, that I wasn't actually farming for Barley back there." Joseph explained. "The whole crop was diseased and I was cutting it down for compost. I'm afraid this season's been rather poor for crops"
"But, what about the beer?"
"Oh, there should still be plenty of beer left to get through the next few months at least.... wait..."
Joseph turns the radio up.
["...there is expected to be an unprecedented rainstorm that will literally flood everything. All species will be wiped out. There is good news however as local nutcase NOAH, who has been building his "spaceship" for the past three years, has now finished it but apparently something went wrong with the design and now, even though it sounds crazy, it miraculously floats on water. He has now decided to save the planet by saving two of every species. He will be taking his wife SARK with him leaving, quote "the rest of the human scum" unquote to die. Only two of every species will accompany him, no more, no less..."]
"Hey, that sounds pretty serious" remarked Joseph.
"Huh, what was that? I wasn't listening"
"They were saying that..."
Gav interrupts "Hold on, this sounds serious"
["..... shortage of beer following the news about the flooding as many have rushed to the pubs for one final session. All public houses in Jerusalem have completely sold out.]

The Sober Chronicles - Chapter 11 - The Beer Necessities

PREVIOUSLY
".....getting angrier by the second....."
AND NOW


"My straw. My bloody straw!" Joseph says to Gav as he points towards the crash. "That's that bloody Judas with my straw. And now you've just trampled all over my
crops. Why does everything always go wrong? WHY!?"

Joseph drops to his knees with his head in his hands. Gav bends down to him and
puts a hand on his shoulder.

"Cheer up mate, I'll buy you a beer."
"What?" Joseph replies.
"I'll buy you a beer. I noticed you're farming barley here. There must be a pub or something nearby to create this demand. Come on, take me to the pub, I'll buy you a beer, and we can talk about whatever you want."

Joseph stands up.

"Thanks...."
"Gav"
"Thanks Gav, I'm Joseph Brown, my friends call me Downtown. I know just the place."
"Thank Christ...."
"....It's his bloody fault I'm in this mess to start with" Joseph interrupts
"... Who?" asks Gav
"Never mind, I'll tell you later. replies Joseph.
"Well, it's been a good half hour since my last pint. I was getting desperate. Now if you'll be so kind Joseph. To the pub!"
Joseph leads Gav to his car and they set off towards the pub.

The Sober Chronicles - Chapter 10 - The Straw-Shank Redemption

PREVIOUSLY
".... HERE COMES THE RANDOMNESS!....."
AND NOW.....


Jake lies there motionless and scared, the others pointing and jeering at him. He dare not move as the farmer approaches, scythe in hand, swinging with determination. Jake starts trembling.
"I don't want to be B-dweiser. Please Lord, save me."
Before the farmer takes another swing, the swing that would cleave Jake down, he gets a face full of straw from the flatbed and stops....

Gav saw nothing of this till he saw the farmer waving frantically at the incoming cloud of straw which distracted his non-concentration. Seeing the farmer, he decides to go down and ask him about the barley. Hopping over the wall and tramping across the field he sees the farmer now free of the straw staring at him, his gaze switching between his face and the tracks he's leaving in the field. He notices the farmer getting angrier by the second...

The Sober Chronicles - Chapter 9 - Jake 2.0

PREVIOUSLY
".....A field of Hordeum vulgare."
AND NOW.....


He salivates at the thought of Barley being ectracted from the Hordeum vulgare to be used in beer.

In this field of wild barley, one particular stalk, Jake was his name, was being teased by the other stalks.
"It's almost harvest time Jake"
"They're coming to take you Jake"
"What do you want to be made into Jake?"
"I want to be in beer"
"You're not good enough for real beer Jake, you'll end up in Budweiser"
"Why must you be so horrible?"
"You're a freak six-row, not like us normal two-rows, you're just animal feed"
"Get ready Jake, it's harvest time"
"HERE COME'S THE RANDOMNESS!!!!"

The Sober Chronicles - Chapter 8 - The Man That Broke The Straw's Back

PREVIOUSLY
".... IT WAS ALL JUST A DREAM"....." AND NOW.....


He watches in wonder as the idiot falls towards a flatbed loaded with straw. MEANWHILE....

Joseph is in his field tending to the crops whilst talking on the phone to Judas. ("Look Joseph, I know I'm late, but there have been some traffic problems. I will have the straw at your door by half past four. Or your money back!")
"But I haven't paid you yet".
("Just a new marketing gimmick I am trying out") Judas hangs up.
"And it should've been delivered last week too."
Joseph sighs.
"I knew Judas couldn't be trusted." Joseph says to himself as he notices a flatbed truck crash in the road next to his field shortly followed by a man crashing into the straw on the back of it which sends it everywhere.

Gav however does not notice this and instead, his attention has become fixed elsewhere. Across the street. On a field. A field of Hordeum Vulgare.

The Sober Chronicles - Chapter 7 - Falling Down

PREVIOUSLY
".....a human body falling through the air."
AND NOW.....

Still slightly blinded from the dancing pattern of reflected light he watches the figure plummet further down. He can see the explosion of glass flying everywhere and thinks to himself 'boy, that run sure was tiring, I could do with a nice cold refreshing beer right now. It has been over thirty minutes since my last drink t...' His thoughts are interrupted by the sound of the falling figure shouting "IT WAS ALL JUST A DREAM"

The Sober Chronicles - Chapter 6 - The Race For Life

PREVIOUSLY
"..... towards the window......"
AND NOW.....

As he speeds up approaching the window, he throws his left leg forwards followed quickly by his right, placing his feet steadily on the floor. He passes a chair and nears a table, almost losing traction with his right foot and begins to skid before correcting it and continues running. He runs straight past the desk and accidentally knocks the table lamp from it with his left arm. Slowing down now as he approaches the window,he puts out his hands to act as bumpers against the wall. Stopping at the far side of the room, he opens the window and looks out. Momentarilly blinded by the falling shards of glass from the next room reflecting sunlight, he can just make out a human body falling through the air.

PREVIOUSLY
"......CRACK....."
AND NOW.....

Gav jumps up startled at the loud noise coming from the next room and says "For Unholy Christ's Knackers, what was that?"
The masseuse - still bewildered by the whole event could only respond with "That's a bit of a mouthfull, maybe you shoud try anacronysing it"
Hearing glass in the next room shatter, he says "step back, I need to see what's happening" He takes a few steps back, steadies himself, and runs towards the window......

"......Would you like a blo...."
AND NOW.....


"Would you like a bloody good massage sir? You look like you need one after that fall outside."
"I'd much rather have an ice cold beer please." came the reply.
"I'm sorry, we're all out of beer, we haven't been able to get any from our suppliers. A shortage or something."
"I suppose I'll have that massage then."
He is led upstairs to a secluded room where he is asked to de-robe and lie down. The masseuse places his hands on his back, applies pressure and ...CRACK!.....

PREVIOUSLY
'...as it said ".....'
AND NOW.....



....."Have you seen what time it is?" Looking at his watch, Gav realises that it's almost closing time. He sets off running as fast as he can but soon falls over after being hit with cramp. Looking up he notices he fell outside a massage parlour. He enters and is approached by a well-built blonde woman who asked "Would you like a blo...."

previously - "MY PINT GLASS IS EMPTY"


Little did he know that it was god himself that had purposely made it rain. Gav watched as the empty glass filled up with what looked, and presumably tasted like Budweiser and threw it away. Just then, a squirrel approached at his feet and tapped on his toes. Looking down at this stupid creature, he listened intently as it said "...
