Metalmanager and the Shooting Star

Metalmanager and the Shooting Star is a story written by Metalmanager.

Chapter 1: Sunset Sky
My story..starts with a sunset sky.

This sky plays a big part in this story, more than any other characters.

It'll be appearing now and then.

''Here goes the story. It starts with the aforementioned sunset sky.''

Metalmanager, one day, was taking a stroll outside. He thought to himself he has no action anymore, and that he wanted to go around the world. He pondered about and ended up sitting on a small hill, a lump even. Staring at the sunset sky. "Is this really my life?" "Is this really all I have to show for it?" A shooting star passes by, while a couple other ones follow. "Look at that. 6 billion people to give luck to. Do you ever give good luck to me?" he said once again, staring at the unstationary beams of light. One of the shooting stars began to grow larger, or come closer to the ground. "What the.." exclaimed Metal, now standing and staring. He couldn't keep his eyes off of this star as is slowly contiued to travel through clouds until finally reaching the ground. After making a large puff of smoke and a star shaped hole in the ground, Metalmanager went to investigate. "I said good luck, not the star itself." he said, pointing at the sky with anger.

Chapter 2: Gary the Gadget Guy
He waddled back inside his igloo, sat down and began to phone Gary. He knew he'd have a reason for this phenomenon, or at least to confirm it as non-serious. "Hello?" he asked, sounding frightened. "Hello! What is it, Metalmanager?" asked Gary, now concered. "There's a shoo-, something outsi- there's something you need to see. Get over here." said a baffled Metalmanager. After about 13 minutes, Gary appeared knocking at the door, being followed by several photograph-taking penguins, who seem to be annoying Gary. Metalmanager quickly waddled to the door to see Gary burst in abrubtly, shutting the door on the camera-penguins' beaks. "Okay...I'm here" said Gary, panting. "Okay, follow me outside." replied Metal. "Oh dear. I'm afraid I'll need a sit down first." said a tired Gary. "No, really, you won't believe this!" said Metalmanager, who proceeded to grab Gary and run to the door. After getting past many penguins, desperate to meet the brainy penguin, Metalmanager returned to the hill, underneath a now dim and light-indigo coloured sky. "So you can see what I meant." said Metalmanager, pointing at the hole. "But...where does it end?" asked Gary. "I'm not sure. We'll need to start digging." replied Metal.

Chapter 3: Super Laser 3000
"No no, no need. I have something right here." said Gary, who quickly pressed a red button, placed on a small box with an anntenna on the end. Then, suddenly, a very large, dangerous looking weapon drove in, slowly with squeeking wheels. "What is....I'm not even gonna bother asking..." asked a confused and shocked Metalmanager, staring at the odd invention. "It's my Super Laser 3000!" replied an excited Gary. "So, how's it gonna help us?" asked Metal. "Oh, it's fairly simple. I just press this again *presses button* and it fires a very large laser that'll make a hole big enough to find the culprit of this hole!" replied Gary, as the laser shot a large, blue laser out of the front, creating an even bigger hole. "But uh, what do you mean by culprit? A shooting star shot down and went through this hole! Thus, creating said hole!" explained Metalmanager. "Well, I'm afraid that'd be highly impossible. Probably the summer air. In fact it could be the radiation of the laser. Are you okay? How many..flippers......am I holding up?" asked a now concered Gary. "You're holding up four and I definetly saw a shooting star, shoot down here and make this hole! Or what this hole used to be." replied Metalmanager. "Well, looks like we'll need our best penguins on the case. Probably Herbert up to something again." said a hasty Gary, waddling off, taking out a folder and lifting his glasses to write "NEW MISSION" on a coffee ring-stained piece of lined paper.
