The Story
|
|
~~~~~~~~~
|
|
|
|
Tonight sees the premiere screening of core designs new epic
|
|
production. Working into the early hours of the morning, Clutch
|
|
Gable the companies editor was busy with the last minute editing.
|
|
Fighting a losing battle with exhaustion; three nights had passed
|
|
since his last sleep. Cutting and splicing each scene together he
|
|
laboured over the movie.
|
|
|
|
Soon, the mesmeric ticking of the editing machine had sent him
|
|
into a deep sleep, where he dreamed of Hawaiian dancers and cold
|
|
cold beer, the sun beating down on his well tanned chest as naked
|
|
(this has nothing to do with the story so will skip an hour
|
|
or so ... !).
|
|
|
|
As Clutch slept peacefully, there was the faint sound of
|
|
footsteps approaching the office door, it slowly opened and
|
|
a shadowy figure crept in. Silently the theif picked up the
|
|
canisters containing the final edit of the movie, and stole
|
|
away into the night.
|
|
|
|
The following morning, the constant ringing of the telephone
|
|
dragged Clutch out of his slumber. With great effort he lifted
|
|
the reciever.
|
|
|
|
"Hello" he mumbled. On the other end of the line, the all too
|
|
familiar voice of "Buster" Smith, head of Core pictures greeted him.
|
|
|
|
"Good morning Clutch, how are you doing with the editing? Its only
|
|
a few hours to the premiere and i cant stress how important this
|
|
picture is to us."
|
|
|
|
"Oh, Ive just finished the last scene sir" replied clutch, turning
|
|
to admire his night's work. Suddenly a sick chill filled his whole
|
|
body as he stared at the space where the canisters should have been.
|
|
"I'll...I'll bring them to your office shortly sir" he stammered,
|
|
dropping the receiver back into place as he tried to clear the
|
|
cobwebs from his head in the hope of recalling where hed put the
|
|
canisters and began frantically searching the office, praying that
|
|
hed find the finished reels somewhere.
|
|
|
|
After a few minutes he realised that his search was in vain and the
|
|
canisters had finally gone. Deep down he realised that there was only
|
|
one possible answer - their biggest rival, Grumbling Pictures had
|
|
taken the cannisters as he was sleeping.
|
|
|
|
He ran from the building, and hailing a taxi he headed to where he
|
|
hoped to find the movie. Upon arrival at Grumbling Pictures he
|
|
entered through a side door into a studio where he found himself
|
|
amongst the stage set of a Western in the midst of production.
|
|
|
|
And this is where his quest begins. Will clutch find the missing
|
|
movies before this afternoon's premiere??
