STORYBOARD, MIRAGE ARENA

ACT 2, things go wrong (working title obviously)

*As Dash, Twilight, and AJ fight bands of heartless on the arena floor, Laguna watches from teh command tower, leaning back in his chair, Pinkie is not in the room*

Laguna: These girls are kicking some serious hindquarters down there! Maybe we ought to...turn it up a notch?

*He leans forward and twists a knob on the panel, only for it to get stuck.*

Laguna: Huh? Aw, man, I knew I shouldn't have spilt soda on this thing.

*fiddles with the knob, before it suddenly snaps off*

Laguna: *staring at it, as alarms start to go off* Uh oh...

*Pinkie sudden comes in through the door behind them, holding a back of popcorn. As the door bursts open, Laguna jumps and faces her, blocking the broken panel*

Laguna: U-Um, everything's fine! Yep, nothing wrong here!

Pinkie: Hey, what's with all the loud noises and flashing lights? You didn't tell me you were throwing a party!

*Heartless start gathering in the hall behind her.*

Laguna: Oh crap...

Pinkie: *turns around* OHMIGOSH! Heartless?! But, I thought those things wer-

(Laguna grabs his gun off the panel and rushes towards the door as she speaks, Man with the Machine Gun starts)

Laguna: Don't worry, I can fix this! It's all under control!

(Laguna tries to spin and slide into a combat position facing the heartless, but skids on a rug instead and crashes into the wall. He quickly climbs to his feet as Pinkie rushes to his side, keyblade in mouth.)

Laguna: Uhhh, I meant to do that.

(The two take their combat stances facing the heartless, and battle begins.)

(Battle Information: Defeat the heartless and reach the Arena Floor!)

(Heartless defeated, Laguna and Pinkie approach a turn)

Laguna: Haha, we beat those guys, no problem!

(They turn the corner to find a very large heartless blocking the corridor, and stop in their tracks, looking up at it.)

Laguna: Aww, man, that's just not fair!

(Suddenly, AJ cuts down the heartless from behind as she, Dash, and Twilight meet up with the duo.)

AJ: What in the hay's goin' on, Laguna?! If this's yer idea of a challenge, you-

Laguna: (Interrupting) Hey, hey, in my defence...I didn't know the knob would break off.

Twilight: Knob? *shakes head* Whatever! We've got trouble! There are heartless running all over the place now!

Laguna: Yeah...bummer. Guess the tournament's gonna have to be called off, huh?

Dash: Doesn't matter, I was winning anyways.

AJ: Like hay you were! I was the one wh-

Twilight: Focus, you two! Laguna, is there some way to stop all these heartless?

Laguna: *thinks* Hmm...

(Twilight, AJ, Dash, and Pinkie all look at him expectantly for several seconds.)

Laguna: *scratches the back of his head* ...I have no idea.

(The ponies groan)

Twilight: Well, Fluttershy and Rarity and trying to lock down the doors to the arena, maybe that will at least slow them down. Come on, let's go help!

Laguna: Alright, sounds like a plan! *points heroically* ONWARD!

Dash: Hey, don't go acting all heroic, you're the one who did all this in the first place!

Laguna: *scratches head again* Yeah, yeah, I get it already, now can we stop pointing fingers...er, hooves...whatever! And go beat up these heartless already?

(AJ, Twilight, and Dash join the group. Player resumes control on the field.) Next Chapter: a pinkie centered project part 1 Estimated time remaining: 51 Minutes
