Chapters
AN: I strongly recommend you to watch before continuing the chapter. SPOILER ALERT.__________________________Christmas and New Year passed by quickly, along with my tenth birthday. I got some pretty good video games including Pokemon, Fallout 2, and Super Mario 64 with my own Nintendo 64. I knew of these games when I heard their names, especially Pokemon with their massive franchise beginning from the games and moving into anime. But for some reason, I have no memory of playing them in my past life.…- 930.1 K • Ongoing
- Standing at the entrance of the fighting gym, I felt like a tiny ant next to the heavy steel doors. The sounds of fists striking pads and rhythmic shouts of fighters seeped through the walls, making me a little nervous. The receptionist had made it very clear that parents were not allowed inside the gym proper because many parents get a little squeamish seeing their kids fight or hit or something similar, so here I was all alone. It was a little daunting task when I have had Steve and Kathy’s support…

- Finally, it was December 16.The day of the table read for . Luckily for us, it was here in LA and not in Philly or it would be very uncomfortable for us to move to Philly for a couple of days, only to come back for holidays, and then go back for shooting again.“Ready, champ?” Steve asked from the driver’s seat where he had just parked the car in the Disney parking lot.“Yeah,” I answered in my now almost real American accent, “Just a little nervous I guess. Haven’t met anyone famous…

- Steve drove over to the school with Kathy as fast as he could as soon as he received the call from Troy’s school.“Troy!” Kathy rushed over to her son and hugged him for dear life, only for him to groan in pain. She reluctantly separated from her son, only to see that Troy was holding his ribs painfully. His right eye was swollen shut, and despite his attempt to smile at her, He looked to be in a lot of pain. His right cheek was also slowly turning a darker shade.“Who did this?” Steve turned…

- “Do you agree to these conditions as laid out by this contract and the remuneration of $250,000?” A judge asked me with an almost incredulous expression on his face. Asshole. He didn’t have to state my compensation for the Sixth Sense out loud. He was probably jealous that I, a 9-year-old, was earning from this movie more than what he probably earned for an entire year. Steve and Kathy took quite some time negotiating my remuneration with the producers. At first, they were offering me only…

- Mum was driving me to the school when we saw that a few men were lurking around the front gate. That’s odd. Just then I caught sight of something black in one of the man’s hands and I could hazard a very good guess who they were. “Mum, reporters are here. Oh yes, I almost forgot. Drive around, the principal gave me permission to use the back entrance.” I ducked my head to avoid getting caught by the sight of any of the reporters. “I know about that. I didn’t think they’d be here…

- Barry took another copy of the page, “I’ll read it with you.” “Yes, Cole?” He asked me, indicating that he had begun the audition. “They used to hang people here.” I kept my voice low as if a little hesitant to answer the question. “That’s not correct. Where’d you hear that?” "They'd pull the people in crying and kissing their families bye... People watching would spit at them." I answered in a somber tone. "Cole, this was a legal courthouse. Laws were passed here. Some…

- It was in the evening that I got some very good news. News, that immediately made me forget about the troubles of the school day, be it my best friend, my classmates, or the media problem. All paled in comparison to what Steve told me. “Is it true? You aren’t joking, right?” I asked again excitedly. Steve chuckled at my enthusiasm, “You remember my friend Barry Mendel? We met at Sundance in January?” I nodded enthusiastically, “Yes. He was the one who is around your age but has those…

- I woke up Monday morning with a huge yawn and stretched my body lazily getting out all the kinks. That weekend was a crazy one. After spending Saturday at Universal Studios with Evan's family, my parents came home on Sunday and decided to have a dinner outing. They invited the Spaders as well, as a thank you for taking care of me during the weekend. Together we went out to this amazing Indian restaurant. The music and the ambiance were great and they played a very upbeat tune in Hindi and encouraged the…

- “Maintain your note for ten seconds, then give a pause for five then continue with next. Start with C, then C-sharp, D, D-sharp, and so on till you reach F-sharp.” Mr. Tanner instructed. I cleared my throat for good measure and began my practice. Practicing vocals with a coach was so much different from working alone. My previous coach didn’t have much experience with singing herself. She covered the basics of notes and voice pitch well enough but after that, even I with my limited experience…
