Sister: A Venturiantale Story

Chapter 3: A Trip To Columbus

Isaac's P.O.V

I woke up still sitting, leaning against the wall in the hallway. Bethany's head was on my lap, so I rested it on Cierra's body before getting up and heading to the bathroom.

I nearly screamed when I saw myself in the mirror. My already messed up hair was even messier, my face was soaked, and my eye was swollen. I sighed and remembered that Jordan didn't mean to hurt me. I was very worried about him though.

I remember when Bethany had started a YouTube channel years ago to share her artwork. We forced Jordan to give YouTube a chance. He was kind of unsure about things, but he tried it out. Not many people liked him very much, so he took down the channel a few years later.

The rest of us were still determined and decided that we would make the channel together. It would be a more professional channel, and would hopefully bring viewers. Jordan had almost lost all hope, but he had just enough to give it another go. VenturianTale was born. In his very first video with Cierra, every few minutes he would say negative things like, "No one is going to watch this," and, "This is a horrible video." But the world seemed to love him. Jordan started to become a much more out going and peoples person, just like he was meant to be.

I loved it when he was this way, considering that the last time he was himself was when I was 5. I hope yesterday's situation will not affect him much.

Bethany's P.O.V

I was uncomfortable all night. When I went to adjust my pillow, I ended up grabbing Cierra's shirt. Sighing, I walked into the bathroom. Isaac was staring into the mirror.

"Good Morning," I greeted. "Good Morning Beth," he greeted back. His eye was still swollen, but he was able to open it more than he could yesterday.

"Are the other two awake yet?" asked Isaac. "Not yet, but they should be up soon," I responded. "You talking about us?" Cierra said walking in with Jordan. "Yeah. Come on Cierra, let's go to our bathroom," I said taking her out with me.

Jordan's P.O.V

I looked at Isaac through the mirror and he just looked down. I put my hands on his shoulders. "You feeling okay?" I asked. He just nodded. "Isaac," I said. He looked up and said, "Yeah, I feel better." I smiled and he smiled back. "Glad to hear it." After brushing our teeth and washing our faces, we walked out of the bathroom.

Cierra was sitting on the couch struggling with the television. "Jordan, this darn thing won't turn on!" she complained. I sighed. "Hand me the remote," I said. In a few minutes, it was proven that it was not going to start. "Okay, I'm going to call the cable company and see if I can get a new cable box." Bethany walked in from the kitchen and said, "At least stay for breakfast Jordan." I nodded and sat down at the table. Bethany brought a nice, warm stack of waffles.

"Mmm, waffles! My favorite," Cierra said in her Sally voice. I chuckled and started to eat. Two waffles later, I got up. "I'm in my room calling the cable dudes," I told the rest.

Isaac's P.O.V

Cierra was practically swallowing the waffles whole. I watched in horror as she gulped each one down. "I'm stuffed," Cierra said pushing her plate forward. Bethany took a bite of her waffle and then took Cierra's empty plate to the kitchen. I picked up my plate, dropped it into the kitchen sink, and headed upstairs again. Cierra followed me up.

"I'm going to edit today's Gmod video, so you can edit Skyrim if you want to," she said. I nodded and walked to the study room.

We prerecorded next week's videos on Friday, or yesterday, itself. After adding the intro, thumbnails, and outro, I hit save and walked into Jordan's room to let him know I was finished editing.

"So you're saying that we have to come all the way to Columbus just for a cable box? There has to be some other place we can pick it up that's closer to Mount Vernon. Alright, we will come to Columbus. Thanks, you too," Jordan said into the phone. He hit the end button and turned to me.

"Can you believe these idiots want us to drive one hour to Columbus just for a cable box? There are so many other places just 10 minutes away from here where we can get the same box, but no, we 'have to go to the main office in Columbus'," Jordan said imitating the man he was talking to. I laughed and Jordan rubbed his temples. "I swear, some people, jeez."

"The Skyrim episode that's supposed to go up today is edited and ready," I said. He said, "Good," and gave me a thumbs up.

"You know what, I could go to Columbus for you. I am familiar with that area since I went so many times for that other face cam," I suggested. "Really? That would be awesome bro, because I've got a lot to do today," Jordan said looking relieved. "Don't mention it Jordan, I'll go get dressed." I said walking out.

I grabbed my 'Jelly?' troll shirt, jeans, sneakers, and Jordan's Cleveland Browns sweater before walking out the door. An hour later, I finally started to see the buildings of Ohio's capital city, Columbus.

I parked the car right outside of the cable company's building. "Hello there sir, may I have your name please?" the man behind the counter asked. "Isaac Frye. My older brother Jordan Frye had called a little earlier about a cable box," I said to him. The man thought for a few seconds, and then clicked around on his computer. "I'm sorry sir, but the truck with the new boxes is running late. It should arrive within an hour and a half or so," the man finally said. After a short argument, I sighed and walked out.

I grabbed my phone and called Jordan. "Hey Isaac. Did you get the cable box?" he asked. "Not yet," I said crossing the road to get to the sidewalk. "Those jerks said their truck was running late," I said. "Do you know how much longer it should take?" asked Jordan. "One and a half hours," I replied. Jordan sighed. "Okay, there's not much to say other than find somewhere that you can just hang around and wait. Take care Isaac, and call me back if you need anything," he said. "Yup, bye Jordan," I said hanging up.
