Hi everyone! This is the sequel to YOU SAID I'M WHERE NOW? It will make more sense if you read that one first.
~Chapter One~
~*~Remembering Atlantis~*~
It had been a couple months since I had had an experience that made me forget a month of my life. I still hadn't remembered anything big. I kept having dreams that I could never really recall clearly. It was always like the faces, names and places were on the tip of my tongue, but nothing seemed to come to mind.
One afternoon I got a call from my boyfriend, aka Hannah's boyfriend, Jake Ryan, and he had some exciting news.
"Hey, Miley, guess what!"
"What?"
"I got a part in a new TV show called Wormhole X-Treme: Olympus Edition. It's about these people that travel through a wormhole to other planets and save galaxies. You totally have to come check it out while I'm filming. I play Lt. Colonel Dex Universe, the handsome leader of the group. He's also the coolest character on the show in my opinion. We filmed the trailer for it a month ago and it just aired today. That's why I couldn't tell you about it until now."
"That sounds cool. I'm happy for you! Sounds kinda familiar. I don't know where from though."
"There was a series before that was just called Wormhole X-Treme that you probably heard of. These are the same directors, producers and writer."
"Yeah, you're probably right, where else would I have heard of it?" I laughed uneasily as some memory tried to break free. I focused but I couldn't see anything clearly. Shrugging I began listening to Jake again.
"Yeah, hey, I have to go get ready for filming. Go to Bridge Studios tomorrow morning and I'll have my manager meet you there at 8:00. Oh, and come as Hannah; Martin, the director/writer is kind of weird about having regular people on the set. Okay, bye, Miley." I hung up as Lilly and Oliver walked into the room.
"Hey, have either of you ever heard of the show, Wormhole X-Treme?"
"Yeah, Jackson used to watch it. We always left the room because it was really stupid. The guy said something about having colonel on his uniform, but he didn't. It was really dumb," said Oliver.
I vaguely remembered it, but not many details.
"Do you know where my dad is? I need to ask him if I can hang out on Jake's set in the morning."
"I think he's in the kitchen, you still had some pie left." I left my room and headed downstairs. Sure enough, Dad was standing at the counter putting some pie on a plate.
"Hey, Dad, can I hang out on set with Jake tomorrow? He's in a new show."
"Sure, but you have to be home by 4:00."
"Thanks, you're the best." I gave him a hug and went back to Lilly and Oliver.
"So, what character is Jake going to play?" Oliver asked.
"He's playing the leader of the team of some galactic military group," I replied.
"Does this mean we're going to have to watch it?" Lilly whined.
"You don't have to, but no matter how stupid it is, I will be a supportive girlfriend and I'll watch it and ya'll will be supportive friends and watch it with me."
"You shouldn't say that until you've seen it. I mean, the original show was so stupid I didn't even watch it more than once or twice…" Oliver said.
"Or four," Jackson said as he walked passed my room.
"Only because he made me!" Oliver yelled, but Lilly and I just rolled our eyes.
"Sure he did, Oliver," I told him. Oliver just stopped talking. Lilly and I spent less than one hour that night watching Wormhole X-Treme. We couldn't even get through a full episode. I hoped Jake's would be better. No matter what, I would tell Jake that I liked it. I always liked hanging out on sets, except when Mikayla was there.
~*~o~*~
I woke up early to make myself look awesome. I hurried through breakfast because I didn't want to be late to the set. The drive seemed to take forever. I hadn't seen Jake for over a week because he had been out of state filming a commercial and I had lots of Hannah things to do. I arrived at the studio and went to find Jake. He was talking to one of his fellow cast members.
"Hey, Jake."
"Hey, Mi… Hannah. Yeah… My Hannah…" I rolled my eyes at him. Way to try and blow my secret. "This is my team member, Jenny Smith. She plays Trinity Sparks. She's an alien that joins my team." After shaking her hand, we started walking toward two guys. "These people are Felix Jacobson and Corey Washington. They play my other team members, Max Thomas, the brilliant scientist; and Steel Planet, another alien that joined our team that is great with a laser sword. He was on the run from some life sucking space clowns. Who would believe that?"
"Yeah, who'd believe that?" I mumbled. Again, something was knocking about in my brains. I felt like I could almost hear it banging around trying to get out.
All this was starting to really sound familiar. Life sucking aliens? I'd heard that before, probably in a movie, but it felt like more to me. I remembered saying it to someone, but the face wouldn't come to me.
"Hannah, you really need to meet the guy who came up with the idea for this; he's one for the crazy book," Jake laughed as we started to approach a small group of men.
"Jake Ryan, leader of the Olympus Base Military! Lt. Colonel Dex Universe!" One of them exclaimed.
"Mr. Director!" Jake said back. The names in this show were really weird. "Hannah, these men are the writers, producer, and the director Martin Lloyd. Mr. Martin Lloyd, Hannah Montana."
"It's nice to meet ya'll," I greeted them as I looked at Martin. He was a small man with black framed glasses. He shook my hand and then began waving his arms around.
"Wait, wait, I have a brilliant idea! We'll have Hannah guest star in a two part episode! She was … supposed to… go to camp! Yeah, that's it. But then… there's a… mix up! And she goes to Olympus in the Unicorn Galaxy instead! Yeah, yeah, that's good. And, and she… saves the galaxies! We'll have a little romance; she falls for Dex, but then has to leave for her career as an intergalactic pop-star! Perfect. I will have my people contact your people. You go get on that script and you go call Hannah's people! Why are you still here?" Martin pushed his glasses up the bridge of his nose as he delegated the chores to all those who were standing around him.
"Told you he was a little bit off," Jake whispered to me.
I just smiled, but my head was spinning. This was all so familiar to me, I just didn't know from where.
"Does anyone know when our Military advisor is getting here?" Martin asked. Everyone said no. "We'll have to start without him. Places everyone!" I stood next to Martin Lloyd and watched him mouth along as the characters spoke their lines. Maybe it was their acting or the script, but it was as bad as Oliver had told me the previous one was. My question was, how did the first show get a second series? The plot was good but the script was…not. After filming a few scenes, the actors got a small break.
"So, what did you think of it, Hannah?" Jake was smiling and excited as he bounced over to me.
"It was really… unique and interesting." I smiled at the face he gave me.
"It might not be Emmy worthy but it has an interesting plot though, right?"
"That is does, Jake."
"Well, I better be getting back." He gave me a peck on the cheek and turned to step back into the scene.
"Good luck, Colonel Universe." I waved him away. I think I would have been more jealous of the fact that Jake was kissing an "alien" but the acting just didn't make it seem all that real. Jake was a good actor but the rest, not so much. In the next scene he was fighting this big bad guy. They used Jake's zombie slaying line, except they changed it so they wouldn't be accused of plagiarizing.
"You only temporarily defeated me, Universe!" The pale monster screamed.
"Dude, I killed you once, don't make me kill you again!" Jake shouted his line.
I laughed quietly. Someone walked up to the director and whispered that the Military advisor had arrived.
~*~A Few Days Earlier~*~
"Colonel Sheppard, I want you to go be the Military Advisor for Wormhole X-Treme's new show. To keep an eye out to make sure Martin Lloyd doesn't go too far with this one. Ever since we had to show him Atlantis he's wanted to make a movie or something about it."
"General, you want me to go babysit some show that no one would believe was real?"
"I know you don't want to have to do it; I had to do it for the original. I know how you feel, but I think you would be the best one for the job."
"Why can't we send Lorne? He knows just as much I do about the military."
"Because I picked you and that's final." General O'Neill smiled. He liked the fact that he could order me to be a babysitter.
They called me from Atlantis for this. From the trailer that I had just seen, it was going to be just as bad as the first show. Not that I stayed up watching it every Tuesday night or anything. Saluting the general, I left his office. I had to get on a plane that night if I was going to get there before filming started in the morning.
A/N…I want to thank my sister for helping me come up with this idea. She and I laughed a lot while we wrote this story…it has five chapters and ONE epilogue, not a million like my Mom's story, GUARDING EDWARD.
I don't own Hannah Montana or any of the Stargate franchises. I like to torture the characters, just kidding…mwahahaha…
You can tell that I've seen every episode of HM and Stargate. If you don't get a reference here, just ask and I'll tell you what episode it was from.
I'll upload a chapter a day…hope you hit that review button and let me know what you think.
Thanks so much for reading…and reviewing.
