Chapter 15:So Much for a Major Motion Picture

By: Heather

Now that the girls had found the perfect person to play the lead in their film, the budget wasn't looking too good- as the BFR insisted on coming at a higher end price. And, since Alison got the negotiating all backwards, he was actually being paid more than what he had initially demanded. Plus, Alison had spit shaked hands with him- which pretty much sealed the deal.

After the negotiation had been completed, the girls were informed of a very insistent purple octopus-like figure waiting for them in the common room, and refused to leave until he was given the opportunity to talk to one of the girls.

So, they decided that it would be best to go down together to investigate the situation. Sure enough, when they entered the common room, there sat the purple octopus, head in his... tentacles whom the girls had just convinced to leave unaware of their entrance.

Heather cleared her throat and in shock he leaped up in his chair spraying ink all over the girls, except Emily who had pushed Susanne in front of herself in order to avoid the spray.

"Oh no-- I... " the octopus was speechless as were the girls.

"... Is that all you wanted? err..." said Emily.

"No- 'ere-" he tossed over a large hankerchief. "...I just..." and with that he unexpectedly burst into tears uncontrollably.

Emily rushed over to comfort him and hesitently patted one of his tentacles in which her hand got stuck, so she tried pushing off with her other hand to remove the first which just ended up getting stuck itself. "um... guys?..." Emily tried motioning to them with her head. It was then that she noticed that Alison, Heather and Susanne were all motionless and ink covered, as if they had become petrified.

In panic, Emily tried pulling away, but it was too late. The octopus wrapped one of his other tentacles around her waist in an almost suffocating grasp. With that a tentacle came before her and everything went black- or purple, if you'd prefer.

When Heather awoke, she found herself in an unfamiliar place, bound tightly in seaweed. She noticed what appeared to be a bubble surrounding her and in front of her, the three remaining members of TGS tied in seaweed and in bubbles of their own- but none of them appeared to be conscious like herself.

She wriggled slightly but there seemed to be no hope of escape- at least on her own. Were the Teen Girls doomed to the bottom of the sea forever? How will they get out of this one?

Da Da Duuun!
