Hello Puppets AU: The show goes on

The arrival of 2 new helpers Pt. 3

Once the two girls got to the cafeteria, they went to get their food. After that, the girls looked around for a seat. They sat down at one of the seats, that aren't taken by anyone else. Amra sat next to her sister and they both began eating their food. but a few moments later, Adri started up an conversation.

"Uhh... Amra" Her sister called out to Amra which got her attention. Amra looked at her and wondered why she called her. "Do yo think it's weird the the puppets are moving by themselves?" Amra then Nodded her head faster than normal signaling that she definitely agrees. "Like- there is nothing supporting them to stand up or something like that? How do they even do all of these things? do they contain Human substance or maybe they have robotic parts and very good AI?" Adri went on and on asking these kinds of questions while Amra listens.

A boy their age came up to them and asked them if they can sit down with them. the girls allowed him to do so. Once he sat down he introduced himself to the girls. "I'm Matthew, but you can call me Matt for short, and what are your names?" "Hey I'm Adri and that's my little sister, Amra. She doesn't talk to newer people but she'll warm up to it" She introduced herself and her sister to the boy. "So You're both new here, right?" the boy asked "Yep, this is our first day" she replied to the boy as she kept eating her food.

"How was it? Was it good lately?" Matt asked them "It was good" Adri said and Amra nodded her head. "But strange" Adri then added "I mean, what I've noticed is that the puppets move and talk on their own. No puppeteer at all." she explains the reason why she found it strange. Matthew also thought of that to during his first day "But I've heard a rumor about how this happened." he said

Before she took another bite of her food she told him to tell her the rumor. "Ok, so it had began a long time ago. Owen Gubberson, the creator of the show he wanted his puppets to come to life. so he bought a book about voodoo spells or something like that and casted the spell on the puppets and the-" Matthew told her before he got interrupted by someone.

"Well, well, well if it isn't my good friend Matthew." a girl said and and a boy came up next to her "Spreading that rumor about our grandfather again?" the boy asked the other boy who's sitting down. "oh h-hey Olivia and Oliver, yeaahh I told them its a rumor in the studio" the boy said sheepishly. The girl and boy looked at the two sisters

"You must be the new helpers, I'm Olivia, and this is my brother, Oliver" the girl introduced her brother and herself. "And you are?" the boy added. "My name's Adri, and that's my sister, Amra" "Hmm.. Amra? That's a pretty name I'd say" Olivia complimented her younger sister. Amra got a little flustered and signed "Thank you" to her.

"Using sign language I see, Thankfully you're quite lucky that some of us understand" Oliver said as he looks over to Matthew with a smug face. "Hey! at least I understood the basics of it" he called out to the other boy as the Oliver grinned at him." Olivia placed he hand on Amra's shoulder "Hopefully we'll work together, Amra" she said as they both left their table.

"Wait, Did one of them mention that their grandfather is Owen Gubberson or is it just me?" Adri asked the two just to make sure. "Yep, that's Olivia and Oliver Gubberson, they're twins" Amra took out her notepad and pen out of her pocket and wrote down 'I see, they might know how these puppets are alive too' and showed it to both her sister and her new friend. "Definitely, I mean, they're somewhat part of this maybe. but we'll see."

Mean while Riley and Nick were chatting in the lab. "So let me get this straight, my assistance niece is related to your helper!" Riley raised her voice at the artist "Yes, but hear me out on this, she isn't that bad. She might have the same interests as me but I'll assure you that you two could get along too." Nick said as he tries to calm the scientist down.

Riley calms down and then asks another question to Nick. "Well what do you think about the new helper you were with?" "hmm... Well, she's quite shy maybe. I mean she doesn't really talk. heck, I didn't even hear anything from her, Not even a hum. But she could have an insecurity about her voice or she's just shy in general. But other than that she's, well, nice to interact with." He answered while leaning on the wall of the lab.

Nick starts to ask the same question to Riley "She was great I'd say. I could definitely see that she is very interested in science and all of the methodical stuff. Its strange but good in a way cause most teens usually don't like these things."

"So... basically another you?" Nick assumed "Well, You could say that" Riley responds to Nick. "Same thing for me, Same interests but a few differences" Nick Nack commented "Oh you can say that." Riley said as she rolls her eyes to Nick showing signs that what he had said was completely obvious to her. "I'll be in my studio where I'll get ready for the next shoot. Bye bye" Nick Nack said as he left Riley's lab and went back to his studio.

When the three teens were finished with their meals they all head to the filming floor and went to up to help arrange the set ups or maybe even help the puppets to get ready. While Amra was helping Nick with something, Amra felt someone tapped her shoulder.

"Well Amra, we meet again" Olivia unexpectedly greeted her which made her jump a little. Amra waved a her just to say hi to her. "It's delighted to see you again, Olivia" "Thank you Nick so how are you two doing?" Olivia asked the both of them "We're doing really good and I could tell you all about it later on!" Nick said happily as Amra signed 'doing really well' to her. but before she could say another word, someone shouted for her name. "Olivia Can you help your father out?" her father shouted from the distance. "I have to go do something see ya" she said as fast as possible and rushed to help her father.

When Nick and Amra were finished also went out of the set up. They went outside and saw Harold Gubberson, the new CEO with Mortimer Handee in his hand. Mortimer turned around then notices both Nick and Amra. "Ahh yes, it's one of our new volunteers we have here!" Amra Waved and smiled at the both of them "This is Amra, she doesn't talk, at least not yet" Nick provided some context to Mortimer and Harold. "Heh, Don't worry about, that, it's ok, we have people who were like that before." Harold assured the girl as he pat her on the shoulder.

"Well we got to film this now so let's go" Nick reminded them and Amra agreed and nodded her head to the men in front  her. As the left, Nick and Amra followed and they separated. Amra was behind the cameras and Nick was at the side of the set up.

When the job was done for today, The helpers stayed here and cleaned the area. Amra was cleaning the main set up. Adri cleaned up the lab and Matthew cleaned up Daisy's set up. Amra then heard some one say "Hi" it was Olivia again. Olivia then helped Amra with the cleaning. "I saw you were getting along with the one of the puppets very well" Olivia told Amra "Which is a good thing and I like it. So sign to me, how'd you get along well very quick?" Amra then signs out her reply 'Mainly we get along because we have the same interests.

"Hm.. makes sense" she responded" then they kept on cleaning and rearranging things. When it was time for the sisters to leave. Adri said her goodbyes while her sister waved goodbye to the puppets and her friends she and her sister just met. Nick Nack called for Amra before she leaves which caught everyone's attention. "Thank you for helping me, Amra" Nick thanked the girl before she leaves then sha gave an A-Ok sign to signal 'no problem' to him. Then left the floor. Once they were on the lobby they all said goodbye to Robin and went back to their car. 'What a strange but a good first day' Amra thought to herself when she got on the car.
