Q&A With Max! Interview 2

[Max452]

Einar stares uncomfortably at the audience.

Random Audience Member: Well? Is it true? Is she the one in the tabloid?
Another RAM: Oooo you guys are soo cute together.

Einar: That's nice...um...
Einar turns towards Dove for some help, but didn't realize he was having trouble too.
Einar whispers to Dove: What is with everyone and romance scenes?

R.A.M: Excuse me! We're still wondering about you and Gianna! Oh, and now that Horton's here. Is it true that you guys are dating!? *Squeal
Einar: Listen, I'm happy and all that you guys care so much about our characters, but please, let's keep our questions geared towards Backabuth and Cara.
R.A.M: But they're gone. So...answer the question!

Loud mutterings of agreement begin and they begin to shout random things about various couples.

Einar tries desperately to placate them without revealing anything about his private life.

Backstage:

Max seethes upon hearing Firestar's commentary about her office and keys. Max: Its not my fault! I DO keep my office door locked! And I thought I had all the keys! Let's go guys!

Max pushes the elevator floor number and waits impatiently as they go up. Max: No, I never knew Selene liked Jatel...but then again, it does explain the blushing whenever we're not filming...Come on...stupid elevator...go faster.
Max taps her foot as a calming tune is being played in the elevator.

Max's Office:

Selene: Jatel!
Arya: Ooo here comes the boyfriend!
Tara: LOL
Selene: Shut up!
Selene snatches back her diary. Selene: No...there's nothing going on here! Nothing!
Selene flushes, embarrassed.

Tristan peeks over the broken door. Tristan: Huh, I never knew you liked him that way...and to think...all that flirty with the DJ...Tyr...Dove...Galbatorix....Eragon...
Tristan practically lists all the male cast members.

Selene: SHUT UP!

Arya and Tara giggle in the background.

Onstage:

The audience is turning into an angry mob, trying to get Einar and Dove to confess their feelings about their co-stars or force them to date/marry them.

Einar groans, praying for a miracle.

(Dove squirms a little uncomfortably at the questions, glancing over at Einar for help and finding he's just as helpless.)
Dove: (whispering back to Einar) I have no idea. People are just obsessed with all of this--
RAM: Hey, Horton! How long will it be before your character finally realizes he's in love with Cara and starts talking to her and marries her and you have a ton of kids?!
Dove: Never if you keep this up...
RAM: I just love Firestar/Backabuth romances! Remember Jeriah and Lathem? That one was to die for! It was epic! It was...(rants on and on about Jeriah and Lathem for a few minutes)

(Marola enters into the chaos. The instant Firestar notices her, she strikes up dramatic "Gone with the Wind" music) Firestar: Ladies and Gentlemen! Now comes the heroine of the story! The great, the wonderful, the all-powerfull and all-beautiful Marola! (SFX: thunderous applause. Marola stares around at all the random chaos)
Marola: I'm outta here! (tries to leave.)
Firestar: Marola, get back here! Or else I'll reveal all your plans for what's going to happen in Yin and Yang!
Marola: (very angry) NO!!!!!!! You've revealed too much already! I wanted to keep everything all secretive...
RAM: Who are you goin to fall in love with next, Marola?!
Marola: No one!
RAM: Yes you are! Firestar said she was going to give you the happy ending you deserve! That can only mean romance!!!
Marola: (turns red, combination anger and embarrassment) You'll have to wait and see!
RAM: I know who it is! It's going to be Marc--(Firestar turns up musci really loud and drowns out the rest of the comment)

Backstage:

Selene is completely embarrassed and flustered. She runs out of Max's office, hiding her face from Jatel as she shoves Tristan out of the way.

Arya and Tara laugh harder and follow Selene out the door.

Tristan stares, completely lost and speechless.

*Elevator dings*
Max and the gang find themselves on the corporate floor, only to be shoved aside by a panicking Selene. Max notices the diary and notices Arya and Tara coming around the corner in a rush.

Arya: Come on, Selene! We were only joking!
Tara: It's all in good fun!
They snicker.

Max feels bad for Selene and heads over to her office to view the carnage. Max tries to radio Einar, but he can't hear her over the large rampaging crowd. Max radios Tyr.

Tyr:Where are YOU!?
Max: What's going on down there?!
Tyr: Umm...are you sure you want to know?
Max: Yes!
Tyr: MAYHEM! Einar and Horton are being harassed by the audience! Firestar has taken over the sound studio! Marola is being blackmailed by Firestar! And Stigandr ate my cake! AGAIN! YOU NEED TO GET DOWN HERE!!!
Max: All right, all right! I'm on my way...we need to close soon too! I don't want the network to yell at me for going over our time slot!

Max rushes back to the elevator.

Onstage:

Einar is holding off an obsessed fan with a chair. Einar: I'm sorry, ma'am, but I'm just not interested in you...I'm really faltered...but please stop calling my cell phone! Stop coming to my house!

Tyr runs onto the stage to help fend off some fans that are coming towards Horton and Einar. Tyr: SECURITY!!!

Five men in suits rush in onto the set and manage to pry off the crazed fans and form a link chain in front of the actors.

Tyr: All right! I think that we'll call it a day! Thanks to our audience and guests, Backabuth and Cara! and thanks to those who watch the show! Now! Don't forget to tune in next time when we have Blodhgarm, Kaylayn, and a few other surprise guests! So GOOD BYE EVERYBODY!

Einar: BYE!!! THANKS!!!
Einar looks pale as another fan tries to jump over security.

[Tismri]

(Somewhere in the studio, someone flicks a switch in the circuit breaker. The entire place goes pitch black)

[Max452]

Max gives out a frustrated sigh as she and the others are all stuck in the elevator!

Max pouts: I want to scream...

Tyr: OOo! well! that's the cue to leave!!! BYE BYE!
Tyr manages to yell over the screaming audience as Security tries to stop them from rampaging onto the stage.
Einar manages to escape as more security is brought in.
Einar: I am not getting paid enough...

And end thread!!! lol
