A.J. VS THE SCRIPTER

 

After uploading his latest episode of Scripter Chronicles: Lores & Legends, A.J. Scripter races to catch the light rail for work. But when the train never comes, he eats a gifted “chocolate bar” to pass the time, only to learn through a frantic phone call that it was actually salvia. 

Reality begins to warp around him. Time folds, vision vibrates, and a flash of white light announces the sudden arrival of the light rail, moving as if it had always been there. From its doors steps a hooded figure who calls himself The Inventor, and who addresses A.J. by a name, The Scripter. 

The Inventor offers A.J. two impossible choices,  stay in his universe and know everything, or enter the Light Speed Light Rail and forget everything while traveling the infinite Scripter Cosmos. Before A.J. can decide, a furious voice interrupts. Another hooded figure storms into view,  The Mad Scripter, claiming he was meant to be the conductor of the Rail and the one destined to “feed the Void.” 

The Inventor panics and rushes aboard the Light Speed Light Rail. The Mad Scripter chases him. A.J., caught in the chaos, jumps in after them. 

Inside, A.J. discovers the train is a cosmic labyrinth, bigger on the inside, filled with beings from countless art styles, universes, and story worlds. The Mad Scripter reveals that he was created to be the very first Scripter until the Inventor replaced him with The DJ Scripter, whose influence brought music and rhythm to every universe. More Scripters followed, each spawning new realities and leaving their creations leaking onto the Rail. 

A.J. and the Mad Scripter meet the Toonworld Scripter, who explains that every Scripter has a place in line to one day become conductor of the Light Speed Light Rail, a line the Mad Scripter refuses to wait in. In a burst of rage, he rips open the train door mid-transit, creating a massive vacuum that sucks passengers and Scripters alike into the Tinker Journey universe below. 

Only A.J. and the Mad Scripter remain in the cart. 

The Mad Scripter darts ahead into the next train car, and A.J. chases him through cart after cart,  each one revealing a new universe and a new version of himself he never knew existed. Along the way, he begins to uncover why he was chosen, what the Scripters truly are, and what lies at the heart of the infinite Rail. 

At last he reaches the front of the train, where The Inventor and The DJ Scripter await him, ready to reveal the truth about A.J.’s identity, the threat of the Void, and the role A.J. must play in the fate of the Scripter Cosmos.
