Through the Box

Episode 1
(Reeze and his friends Darkhorse and Chill are in the lighthouse looking for the mysterious '20th buoy'.)
 * Reeze: (Waves hand and coughs. Dust flies everywhere) What are we doing here again?!
 * Darkhorse: I don't want to be here either, but I want that 20 dollars!
 * Chill: Yeah, me too. Why does Brook want that mysterious '20th buoy' so much anyways? Couldn't he find it himself?
 * Darkhorse: I know, right?
 * Reeze: Whoa, look! A box portal from the April Fools' party!
 * Chill: Awesome! I wonder if anyone goes to the Box Dimension anymore XD
 * Darkhorse: Let's see if it still works...
 * Reeze: (Puts his flipper through) I don't feel a bottom! I guess it does!
 * Chill: Sweet! Let's go through!
 * (Suddenly the lights go out and a deep voice starts speaking)
 * Voice: DON'T GO THROUGH THE BOX!
 * (Darkhorse screams. Suddenly the lights flash back on and the friends look around in fright.)
 * Chill: Wow, that was stupid. It's obviously Brook! :) See, um, they probably used this light switch over here! (goes to a light switch that is covered in dust)
 * Reeze: Chill, that's not the light switch!
 * Darkhorse: Don't! What if it electrocutes you?
 * Chill: Don't be stupid. What's the worst it can do? (he flicks the light switch and suddenly the lights go out)
 * Reeze: What did you do?!
 * Chill: Um... See? It's only the 'off' switch! Heh heh...
 * Darkhorse: Guys?... Come take a look at this! (she's staring at the box portal)
 * Reeze: Uh... Is it supposed to be glowing red?!
 * (dramatic music starts playing and everyone looks off in the distance as wind blows through their hair)

Episode 2

 * Chill: Uh... I hope so?
 * Darkhorse: Chill, you broke it!
 * Reeze: If you broke it, it wouldn't be glowing.
 * Chill: Yeah. Uh.. Yeah. I agree.
 * Darkhorse: Why would it be glowing red and not purple-
 * (BOOMMMMMMMMMMMMMMM!!!)
 * Reeze: WHAT WAS THAT?!
 * Darkhorse: I DON'T KNOW! WHY'D THE LIGHTS GO OUT?! :(
 * (lights suddenly turn on)
 * Reeze: Oh my gosh. My heart's like pounding a million miles an hour.
 * Darkhorse: Where's Chill?
 * Reeze: Come on! This is your typical horror story! Boom! The lights go out! When they come back on, somebody's gone.
 * Darkhorse: Chill? CHILL! THIS ISN'T FUNNY-
 * (a raspy voice cuts her off)
 * VOICE: WHOEVER TOUCHES THE LEVER WILL DIE!!
 * Reeze: What the heck?! Where did that come from? :(
 * Darkhorse: I don't know but I'm scared!!! :(
 * Reeze: The lever? What lever? Where did that voice even come from?!
 * Darkhorse: Whoa. Look! The box...
 * Reeze: What about it? It's still red.
 * Darkhorse: No... It's a darker red.
 * Reeze: You think this has to do with the box?
 * Darkhorse: What else? Chill runs out the door randomly during a power outage and then a mysterious voice warns us about 'the lever'? What if it means the light switch?
 * VOICE: YOU WILL HAVE A SECOND CHANCE. AT THE TWELFTH GONG, YOU WILL DIE. UNLESS...
 * Reeze: Just stop it! You're scaring us too much! Unless what?!
 * VOICE: UNLESS...
 * BONGGGGG
 * Darkhorse: What was that?!
 * Reeze: I don't know. At least the voice is gone...
 * BONGGGGG
 * Darkhorse: Oh my gosh! The twelve gongs!
 * BONGGGGG
 * Reeze: WE HAVE TO GET OUT OF HERE!! CHECK THE DOOR! I'LL SEE ABOUT THE BEACON!
 * BONGGGGG
 * Darkhorse: THE DOOR'S LOCKED!
 * Reeze: TRY HARDER!!!
 * Darkhorse: IT'S LOCKED!!!!
 * Reeze: THERE'S A CRATE COVERING THE BEACON ENTRANCE!! IT WON'T MOVE!!
 * BONGGGGG
 * Darkhorse: That was the fifth one! COME HELP ME WITH THE DOOR!! NOW!!!!
 * (Reeze runs over to the door)
 * Reeze: IT WON'T OPEN!!
 * BONGGGGG
 * Darkhorse: I told you!!
 * BONGGGGG
 * Reeze: THAT WAS SEVEN!!! HOW DO WE GET OUT?!
 * BONGGGGG
 * Darkhorse: TRY THE WINDOWS!!
 * BONGGGGG
 * Reeze: IT'S NO USE! THEY'RE ALL STRENGTH-O-GLASS!
 * BONGGGGG
 * Darkhorse: WHAT DO WE DO?!? THAT WAS TEN!!!
 * BONGGGGG
 * Reeze: OH MY GOSH JUST TRY THE BOX!!!
 * Darkhorse: BUT IT'S RED!
 * Reeze: JUST DO IT!!!
 * BONGGGGG
 * (Reeze and Darkhorse jump through the box portal just as the last gong fades away)


 * The two friends wake up on a sandy beach. The sky is blood-red and an eerie wind is all that can be heard.
 * Reeze: Is this the other side of the red box portal...?
 * Darkhorse: (groans and sits up) I guess so...
 * Reeze: Whoa. What's that in the water?


 * Three circles are slowly wading in from the ocean. As they move closer...
 * Reeze: Oh man. Are those penguins?
 * Darkhorse: Look! They're getting closer! Yeah, they're penguins. Wait... That one on the left looks like...
 * Reeze: (gasp!) Me!...
 * Darkhorse: And... Chill!
 * Reeze: Oh my gosh, that one's you!


 * Suddenly, two penguins run up to Darkhorse and Reeze, terrified.


 * Penguin 1: RUN! RUN! RUN!!!
 * Reeze: Who are you?
 * Penguin 2: I'm Broseph and this is Brookelas. Seriously, run!!
 * Darkhorse: Why?
 * Brook: You DON'T want to know! Just listen to us and get away from here as fast as you can! We warned the other one. I think he's in the jungle.
 * Broseph: He called himself Chill, I think.
 * Reeze: (gasp!)
 * Brook: You know him?!
 * Darkhorse: Yes! We do!


 * The three penguins in the water slowly step onto the beach. Their clothes are ragged and their eyes are saggy.


 * Reeze: Who are they?
 * Broseph: They're the 7th dimension versions of you. They're brainless and eat penguins. Everyone from the first dimension has one- even we did.
 * Darkhorse: You?
 * Broseph: Yeah, but...
 * Brook: We were in the lighthouse. There was this loud voice that told us that we would die-
 * Reeze: After the twelfth gong?
 * Broseph: Yeah! So we came here... There are a lot of 'firsties' here like us. It turns out this place is evil. There are eight dimensions... Each a different color. Blue is the first dimension. That's where you all come from. Then it's purple- the box dimension. It's more evil that you think. Then there's green, orange, yellow, black, here, and some mystery dimension. That makes 8 total.
 * Brook: Each dimension has alternate versions of the firsties. Some are good, some are bad. The 7th, that's where you are, are extremely bad.
 * Broseph: The bad alternates just want to eat you. And...
 * Reeze: And what?
 * Broseph: replace you in the first dimension.

Episode 3

 * Darkhorse: :O dats scary
 * Reeze: This whole thing is scary. Let's just start running, okay? I don't want to be eaten by my zombie look-alike.
 * (Everyone starts jogging toward the jungle next to the beach.)


 * Broseph: Did one of you flip a switch on the wall that was covered in dust?
 * Reeze: Yeah... Chill did.
 * Broseph: Oh...
 * Darkhorse: What?
 * Brook: So did Ben.
 * Reeze: Ben?
 * Broseph: He's our friend from the first dimension. He flipped the switch and disappeared when the lights went out.
 * Darkhorse: That happened to Chill too!
 * Brook: Look! The treeeeee
 * Reeze: The tree?
 * Broseph: Yeah. It's our hideout. You can talk to Herbert ther-
 * Darkhorse: Herbert?!
 * Brook: The EPF trapped him but he escaped through the box portal and came here. He's actually really nice. The EPF was actually studying him and made up the whole story about him trying to melt the island.
