“Alright, places, places, places!” yapped a middle-aged Caucasian. The man was naturally loud, so the red megaphone made his words boom out; the base so deep that it rattled their ears; every cast and crew member in the proximity of the outdoor set.
The leading star of the film could just about tolerate the director’s irritating tone. That was not his main issue though. It was closing scene of the ‘third act’ about to transpire, which left the teenager looking glum.
Many would call it a cliché; ‘the kiss scene’.
“Why does there always have to be a kiss scene?” was what the renowned martial artist, Kirano Jr wanted to ask the director, however, held his tongue; knowing it was merely a rhetorical question. It was like asking why the sky was blue; pointless; a waste of time.
Kirano Jr had no answers; the reason for being summoned to this verse; his purpose; his destiny; unclear. He already had a great reputation on Planet Earth; furthermore, had just topped Forbe’s list as the ‘Most Influential Teenager in the World’.
Even more unsettling was the setting; his surroundings; naught but white.
Kirano Jr removed his eyes from the ground, peered upwards, capturing the colour of the sky, and then lowered his head to the ground again; this time, shaking his head in disbelieve.
The earthling instantly concluded that he had never seen anything like it; not even close in resemblance to the ‘Omniverse’.
