"Done!" Piper said happily as she threw herself onto the bed. She was finally done with the shooting!
It took one month but it wasn't too bad. After posting more pictures on Instantgram she had gotten 5k more followers.
Piper was seriously tired. It had been such a long time since she last acted so it really tired her out. Especially this action/horror movie where she had to jump around and run away from the monsters. The movie was about a few students who went camping in the forest. Later they stumbled upon a tunnel leading to another realm/world where monsters lived. There they tried their best to survive against the monsters and themselves since only one person could escape from the realm. Thus the name "Last". The movie's survivor was Emma.
"Hehehe, this will get me so many fans" Dollar signs appeared in Piper's eyes. Of course, she loved her fans but money was important too. This Movie would become very popular and earn her quite some cash as well as give her some more exposure. Later she would probably get more movie deals from other companies.
"But what am I going to do now?" The movie's scenes were just finished and now there was only editing and such left. It would probably take a few months and she had absolutely nothing on her Schedule Before that except some minor interviews.
"Sleep?" Piper nodded and dozed off. She had a good nice sleep for once now that she didn't have to wake up early and she happily dreamt about food and Money.

Lately, Chris had been feeling weird. Ever since a few months ago he had started to feel some kind of longing in his heart. Like he had to go quickly find someone. It made him feel confused. Who or what was it that he longed for?
"A new movie? Yeah, that must be it surely. I haven't directed a movie in quite a while so I must be feeling too bored" He muttered quietly. The last movie he had directed was released 2 years ago. It was seriously such a long break and his fans had been missing him very much. The Entertainment industry was also curious about where the Genius director had gone off to.
"Let's prepare something epic for my comeback then" He lightly smiled as he stretched his limbs and opened his laptop and messaged his friend
Chris: [Luke, prepare a story. I want it by the end of the month]
Luke: [Hm? Bro, are you making another movie?!]
Chris:[Mm]
Luke: [Haha don't worry bro. I'll make sure to write the best story ever! Gtg, Linda is calling. Byeeee!]
Chris: [Bye]
Luke was Chris's friend since high school. Luke was an author and had written quite a few movie plots. Most of them were big hits in the industry. Luke's stories coupled with Chris's directing would without a doubt make a big hit.
"Guess I'll have some time before I have to work. Let's rest then" Chris muttered while yawning. He closed his laptop and went to bed to get some sleep.

"Give me information about trending directors," Piper said while face timing her manager, Kara, on her tablet. Her sentence was short and cold as usual.
[Yes, I'll send it right over. Wait a sec]
Piper stood up and went to the cabinet to make some instant ramen while waiting for her manager. She wanted to get to know the film industry's people in this world so she could choose some good movies in the future.
[I sent a file to your tablet. Well, I have to go pick up my niece from kindergarten. See ya]
"Thanks, bye" Piper hung up as she opened the file on her tablet to read. There were quite a few of them like Stefen Spjelberg who directed Indiano Stones and Jurassic Bark or Stanlee Cubrick who directed The Shine.
But the one who caught Piper's eye the most was Chris Jackson. A 27-year-old guy who had directed only two movies. They both became big blockbusters and were nominated for Ascars. The weird thing was that he was still a somewhat relevant subject even when he had been on a hiatus for 2 years. Maybe it was because he was handsome?
"He, this guy gives me some familiar vibes. Have I seen him perhaps?" Piper pondered for a second before continuing to look around. Suddenly she heard her phone ringing. Curious she picked it up. On the screen was the name Lulu.
"What?" It might sound rude but this was just Emma's way of conversing
[Sis, I have something big for you! My bro Chris is going to direct a movie soon! I'll be sure he picks you as the lead actress.]
"Chris?" Piper asked.
[Yeah, my friend. The director guy. He asked me to write a plot for a Movie.]
"Ah" Piper nodded. So that relevant but actually irrelevant guy was Emma's brother's friend.
[So what do you Think? You up for it?]
"Okay," Piper said with a dead voice but on the inside, she was cheering. If her next movie was going to be Chris's Movie she would definitely become famous overnight.
[Ok sis, I'll be sure to force him into making you the lead actress. Don't worry!]
"Mm," Piper hung up and laughed. She hit big this time
"Hehehe" Chuckling, she Went back to eating her noodles.

A few weeks had passed and Luke was done with the story. He dialed Chris on his phone and waited a good few seconds Before he picked up.
[What?]
"Bro I'm done!" Luke said as he proudly looked at the story in his hands. He had put in all his blood, sweat and tears into this story so that his sis could play a lead actress in one of the best movies.
[Hm, good. Send it over email]
"Yess" Luke chuckled and sent the file to Chris. After waiting for an hour he finally heard Chris respond. Yes, he had been sitting waiting for Chris's response for an hour.
[Nice. Thank you]
"Ah, wait!!" Luke hurridly said Before Chris got the chance to hang up
[What now?]
"I have one condition," Luke said with an evil face. Bro don't expect to get the script without having my sister as the lead actress
[?]
"My sis, she will get the lead role or else the deal is off!"
[...No]
"Then go find Another writer! Hmph!"
[I will. ]
"Wait, what? Bro, bro, bro don't go! This story is something you must have! How can any other story be as good as mine? You're going to taint your reputation!" Luke panicked. He had not expected Chris to reject this easily.
[Fine but your sister will have to audition first]
"Hehe, no problem. Even though this is a Little bit more annoying then directly hiring her as the female lead, it still leads to the same result so fine" Luke had no idea he had been played by Chris. Chris had no intention to actually find another writer but he would not accept someone as his female lead without seeing her acting first.
[Bye]
"Muah!" Luke gave a loud smack and heard a small sound of disgust through the phone.
"Bro I love you too" Luke laughed and dialed his sis
[What?]
"Sis you got the audition. Prepare to become a celebrity"
[Okay]
"Eh, what? You hung up?" Luke stared at his phone with a hurt expression. They both were so mean. Leaving without saying thanks for the things he had done for them. He kind of regretted doing this now
Sulking he went to the dinner table to eat some food to comfort himself.
