a slightly modified little short i made for another forum now with SBC usernames!
The Polite Ghost: An SBC Story
The short begins with the SBC Gang hanging out at SBC Headquarters (JJs, Cha, SOF, and SB&P). All of them look bored.
JJs looks at Cha across the room repeatedly throwing a plastic ball towards the wall then proceeding to catch it
JJs: What're you doing?
Cha: Wall Ball.
JJs: Wall Ball?
Cha responds while her full focus is on the bouncing ball
Cha: Wall Ball.
SOF: You guys wanna go out for ice cream?
SB&P: I just ate
SOF: I was talking to both Cha and JJs, not you.
SB&P: oh...
JJs: i could go for some ice cream. Cha, you comin'?
Cha: cant come. playing. wall ball. [slowly]
She throws the plastic ball a bit too hard, causing the Wall Ball to bounce from the wall towards the window, and thus breaking it.
SOF: you coming now?
Cha: Sure...
She again responds with her focus, not on SOF but on the broken window. She's trying to figure out where the wall-ball might've bounced to.
Cha: i actually do know a really good ice cream place
JJs: Alrighty, then! Let's go!
Cut to them infront of the ice cream place
Everything is going quite normally until Cha walks towards the front door and it opens automatically. She pays no mind to it.
SOF and JJs, who were standing right behind Cha as she went in, are puzzled by what they just witnessed
SOF: How?! What?! That wasn't an automatic door!
They rush inside
JJs: Hey, Cha quick question
Cha: Yeah?
JJs: How did you do that just now
Cha: You want to know how?
JJs: Very much so. yes
Cha Starts to tear up
Cha: I thought you'd never ask. I'm getting a little emotional here, Sniff. Okay here goes: you get a good grip on the ball, and you point it very precisely at the location at which you want the ball to hit, and the-
JJs: What the heck are you talking about?!
Cha: Wall-Ball. isn't that what you wanted to ask about?
JJs: What you just did back there! you made the door open without even touching it
Cha: Yeah, that's how doors work, duh!
SOF: Cha, i can assure you that that is not at all how doors function
Cha: You mean doors don't open for you when you walk past them?
JJs: of course not!! Since when did you have this ability?
Cha: Well, for as long as I can remember, I've had this ''ability''; I just assumed everyone else had it too. I mean, everyone uses it in the mall.
JJs: That's because the mall has automatic doors installed, Cha
Cha: oh. well that explains that
SOF: We still need to figure out why you possess such a strange ability that the entire world's populace does not have.
Cha: hehe! I'm a wizard
While they're busy theorizing, a puff of blue smoke emerges in front of them, revealing a hideous ghost with lots of facial hair and a bulging red eye.
Everyone in the Ice cream store run for their lives
Blue Ghost: Come on, people! I'm actually really nic-....annnnd they're gone.
Cha: Who are you?!
Blue Ghost: It's me, Jacky the ghost man
Cha stares Blankly in silence
Blue Ghost: I helped you pass your elementary school exam!
Cha continues to stare in silence
Blue Ghost: Come on you've got to remember me i was there for your 19th birthday party
Cha: Sorry, not ringing a bell
JJs: JUST TELL US WHO YOU ARE!
Blue Ghost: I'm the person who's been opening doors for Cha this whole time
Cha: but why?
Blue Ghost: Mom always said it isn't polite to make a classy lady open the door herself. and trust me.....you do NOT want to disappoint mother she is NASTY.....but don't TELL HER I SAID THAT! please!
Cha: So all this time, I thought that's how doors functioned; it was actually YOU helping me!
Blue Ghost: Exactly.
Cha: will you keep helping me
Blue Ghost: Well, since my cover's been blown by your friends and seeing as our relationship was meaningless and COMPLETELY one-sided, I think I'm going to take a vacation.
Cha: Goodbye, ghost man. I'm gonna miss you.
Blue Ghost: i highly doubt it [vanishes]
Cha: Gee, it sure is going to be hard getting used to opening doors manually from now on.
JJs: No worries! we'll teach you the ropes
SOF: Yeah!
Cha: thanks guys [they hug]
They leave the Ice cream store and head back home
Cha: BTW, I heard the store right next to the SBC building sells really strong plastic wall-ball balls!
THE END
