(All of a sudden, Megamind's brain bots swarm out of a cupboard beside me, and I almost drop the camera. Megamind couldn't be more of a coward. I duck out of the way and they latch onto Bernard, dragging him away in the air. As they fly past, they knock over a metal cabinet.)

Roxanne: Bernard!

(I see a yellow-glowing gun on the floor in front of me. It has to be useful for something. I pick it up and run after him.)

Roxanne: I'm coming Bernard!

(As I speed around the corner, I gasp when I see Megamind piled on the ground.)

Roxanne: Megamind! What have you done with Bernard?!

Megamind, standing up: Oh, Bernard? Oh, yes. I'm doing horrible things to that man. I don't wanna get into it, but lasers, spikes...

(He swings open a basement door and I hear Bernard's yells coming out of it.)

Bernard: Please no! Not the lasers and the spikes!

Megamind: You know the drill.

This is all my fault. Another one of my stupid mistakes. Now Bernard's going through everything I went through for the first time.

Bernard: Oh no! Not the drill!

Roxanne: Let him go! Or...

Megamind: Or what?

Roxanne, activating the gun and pointing it at him: Or I'm gonna find out what this wierd-looking gun does.

Megamind, jumping away from the basement entrance and waving his hands around: No! Don't shoot! Don't shoot that gun! I'll just go get him.

Thank god for that. That went easier than I thought it would-he's really scared of this gun.

Bernard: Unhand me, you fiend!

Megamind: Never!

What is he doing?

Bernard, coming out of the basement doors: His strength is too much!

Megamind, coming out of the basement doors: I work out!

Bernard, coming out of the basement doors, and struggling with Megamind: It's really paying off! You're so fit! And strangely charismatic!

(They continue to fight and I decide to handle this myself. Literally. I go to open the handles, but Bernard flies out, slamming against the wall and pushing me out of the way.)

Roxanne: Are you okay?

Bernard: I did my best...but he's too fantastic!

(I sigh, and look back to the doors.)

Bernard: Here, let me carry that heavy gun for you.

Roxanne: I got us covered.

(I take the lead, trying to find a way out of here, when Megamind suddenly leaps out of no-where.)

Megamind, grabbing the gun and wrestling it off me: Let go, it's mine!

Roxanne: Bernard, run!

(We wrestle around the room, pulling the gun back and forth. Whatever it is, I'm not going to let him have it.)

Hal, from outside: Roxanne?

Megamind: You're going to break it!

Roxanne: Give it to me!

(A glowing pellet shoots out from the gun and we both step back as it bounces around the place.)

Megamind: Oh no!

(While he's distracted, I run back to the place labelled 'Exit', and swing the doors open. Turns out it's actually an alligator pen and I almost fall to my gruesome death.)

Bernard, grabbing my hand: Roxanne!

Roxanne, breathing heavily: Bernard! You were right about that door being exciting.

(Another load of Brainbots appear behind us.)

Bernard: This way!

(We keep running, until I see a shelf of dynamite sticks.)

Roxanne, lighting it on one of the brainbots: Ha!

Bernard: What are you doing?!

Roxanne: This will stop them! (Throwing it to him) Here!

Bernard, balancing it in his hands: Seems a bit extreme, doesn't it?!

Roxanne: Just throw it!

(It explodes from behind us and the blast leaps us out of the secret entrance. We crouch on the ground, coughing and breathing heavily.)

Roxanne: Wow. That was really...exciting!

Bernard, dazed: Yeah.

Roxanne: You were very strong in there.

Bernard: I know.

Roxanne: I've never seen anyone but Metroman stand up to him like that.

Hal: What's going on?!

Oops, I forgot he was here.

Roxanne, standing up: Hal, what happened?

Hal: I think a bee flew up my nose.

Gross.

Hal, pressing his nose: I was just about to make my frontal assault to rescue you, but, like, fifty ninjas tried to attack me.

Of course..

Hal: So I had to beat them all up, and I did and they were all, like crying and stuff.

Bernard, stepping towards us: Wow, a brave one isn't he?

Hal: Who are you?

Roxanne, pointing to him: Oh this, this is Bernard. He's my partner.

Hal: Partner?

Bernard: Yes...yes, partner.

Hal: Well, look, 'partner', I'm her partner. She doesn't know what she's saying, she's been through a traumatic experience.

Yeah, right.

Roxanne, to Bernard: I'd better take him home. (I sigh) Thanks again, Bernard.

(I hug him tightly. He saved my life.)

Roxanne, breaking away from him, grinning: I'll call you tommorow (playfully punching him) ...partner.

Bernard, a bit stunned: Yeah. Ok. I'd like that.

Hal: That was wierd for everybody. (I keep looking at Bernard, but push Hal towards the van) 'Cause you accidently hugged him because of me.

(I get into the van and Hal sits in the other front seat, stuffing tissue up his nose until we reach his apartment.)

Hal, jumping out: Goodbye!

Roxanne: See you tommorow, Hal.

(As soon as he shuts the door, I drive away, unsure of what he was trying to say. It probably doesn't matter.)

(When I get to my room, I jump onto my bed, sighing. I can't wait to call Bernard tommorow.)
