《Alexander Creed: Re-Life》Chapter 272: Music, Animation and a Show!
Advertisement
As awkward as it is to have to shift from what was originally planned at the last minute... these were the kinds of things that come in life.
Not everything goes as planned and everyone had to adapt and compromise so that everyone benefits.
This was what led this current scenario to be what it is. With the Creed host re-prepping and the guest being understanding.
Soon enough, the team setting up the stage was finally able to finish their job and when they gave the 'emcee' a signal... things finally fell into place.
"Sorry to cut my CREED HQ story short... but it looks like we're finally ready to play what you guys are so patient about." 'Emcee' gestured to the crowd. "Thank you for that by the way."
This time, no rowdy replies were given to him. Since things were ready, they were more attracted to having the mystery revealed.
How could they still be in other things when they are finally at the precipice of it?
'Emcee' understood their plight but the spirit of showmanship got to him, so he teased. "Are you guys wondering what it's about?"
There was still no answer though as the crowd had themselves preoccupied with their theories as to what it is.
The TV mystery had been lingering in people's minds for a while and there were even nerds hedging bets as to what it is.
Was it a video of Alexander Creed finally revealing who he is? This was probably going to be a big surprise.
Was it another publicity video for Back to the Future? Even though BttF has been a prevalent blockbuster already, it still couldn't be discounted that they'd do something like this.
Was it another teaser for a new feature film that Creed is producing? If so, was this the rumored BttF 2 or something else?
Nevertheless, the BttF theories seem far off. Given that the TVs were previously at TMNT and Dragonball... does this mean that the Turtles and Goku would have their big screen debut?!
Collectively, the most obvious guess that people turn to are teasers and trailers.
Star Wars has been known to rally support from Comic-Con and it wouldn't be a stretch for Creed Pictures to follow that strategy.
Hyping up this quietly pondering crowd seems to be a lost cause and when 'emcee' spotted the little boss tapping his wrist, the schedule was coming close.

"Not to let you guys wait further, why don't we just find out together." 'Emcee' kicked things off and the technician pushed a tape on the VHS player.
The TV-speaker system churned and music and motion were kicking off!
Sure enough. The crowd's eyes and ears readied themselves for what was coming!
-----
A strum from an electric guitar suddenly echoed from the speakers...
An image of space appeared on the screens...
As the strums get methodic and fast, the picture zoomed back to the point where the familiar moon was shown.
As the picture continued to backtrack, the moon became a backdrop as a certain city alleyway was whizzed by.
[Teenage Mutant Ninja Turtles!]
A voice sang that line with pep and a manhole cover oozed with green.
[Teenage Mutant Ninja Turtles!
Teenage Mutant Ninja Turtles!]
The song repeated that catchy line and on screen, cute little turtles sat atop a green spill.
[Heroes in a Half-Shell!]
Every line uttered, timed itself with how those cute little turtles morphed into something new.
[Turtle Power!]
As the verse ended with that... a familiar turtle-man silhouette was shown to everybody. A definite throwback to how the mysterious turtles were introduced to the comic book community.
That mystery was finally revealed as rawly transformed little turtle-men were shown and as a rat man handed them their mask... they became the ninjas.
[Here we go, it's the lean green ninja team
On the scene, cool teens doing Ninja things.]
[So extreme, out the sewer like laser beams
Get rocked with the Shell Shock Pizza Kings!]
With that catchy rap-like rhythm and rhyme, the Ninja Turtles showcase what they're about.
A blue-masked turtle sliced, an orange-masked turtle nun-chucked, a purple-masked turtle staffed, and a red-masked turtle diced!
[Can't stop these radical dudes
The secret of the ooze made thе Chosen Few]
[Emergе from the shadows to make their move
The Good Guys win and the Bad Guys lose!]
True to the meaning of those verses, it would seem that the shadowy sewers weren't that bad... compared to the even darker infestation that envelops the city above it.
The Foot ninja and its mark and then the darkened visages of what would become known as the Turtle's Rogues Gallery.
[Leonardo's the leader in Blue
Does anything it takes to get his Ninjas through.]
Parallel to the song, Leo showcases who he is.

[Donatello is the fellow
Has a way with machines.]
Donnie goes mechanic.
[Raphael's got the most attitude on the team.]
Raph goes game rage.
[Michelangelo, he's one of a kind
And you know just where to find when it's party time]
Of course, Mikey's the cool dude that just skates through the sewers.
[Master Splinter taught them every single skill they need.]
Then, we have the teacher and father figure that made them into who they are.
[To be one lean, mean green incredible team.]
[Teenage Mutant Ninja Turtles!
Teenage Mutant Ninja Turtles!
Teenage Mutant Ninja Turtles!]
The main chorus repeated those words with hype and matching it is the Turtles themselves dishing out actions under the moonlit sky and across skyscrapers.
[Heroes in a Half-Shell!
Turtle Power!]
By the end, the ninja quartet made a pose by a building... and they stuck to that while the title sequence finally wrapped up with the comic title font that everyone knows.
Teenage Mutant Ninja Turtles.
-----
As it turns out... they were oh so wrong with their little guesstimates and single-dollar bets.
What was shown was actually just a little animated music video that lasted for exactly one minute.
That single minute of music and animation was more than enough to send their comprehending thoughts flying though!
That catchy-cool mix of rhyme, rhythm, rap, and art was a lot for them to process.
To think that the amazing turtles they read and flipped from the pages of comic books have come this far already!
This may just be the excitement rushing into their passionate brains... but they felt like parents finding out that their babies have grown way too fast!
Comic book to toys was already confounding enough, so comic book to music video was a lot to take in.
-----
Silence ensued in the crowd and it wasn't exactly the cheers of joy and praise that were expected to happen.
Still, 'emcee' and the onlooking Creed representatives were not worried as there were no looks of disappointment to be noted.
Simply put, everyone just looks like they've bottled up too much excitement and they didn't exactly know how to process it.
"Seeing you guys keeping quiet as always... why don't we play another one to help you out?" 'Emcee' took the chance and a new tape replaced the first one.
-----
The Creed crowd may still be reeling from the excitement but their eyes and ears were still following things by instinct.
Music and animation were blending again... and a different treat was what they were going to be in for!
A breezier tone was playing this time around... and straightforward still images of epic Ninja Turtle scenes were spliced over the other.
[Teenage Mutant Ninja Turtles
Teenage Mutant Ninja Turtles
Teenage Mutant Ninja Turtles
Turtle power!]
[They're the world's most fearsome fighting team
They're heroes in a half-shell and they're green
When the evil enemies attacks
The Turtles (Turtles) Fight back!]
[Teenage Mutant Ninja Turtles
Teenage Mutant Ninja Turtles
Teenage Mutant Ninja Turtles
Turtle power!]
It was the same TMNT-themed music but it hits so differently than the other one. That repeating chorus is the same for both songs but is sung uniquely from one another.
The former was hip and escalating with action and freshness... while this latter was more breezy, methodic, and strangely de-escalating.
One was to hype people for what's to come while the other was to cool down from the hype that has been offered.
Of course, both were still hype and hip as can be.
In any case, that bottled-up excitement that the crowd didn't know how to process had finally found a stop-gap to itself.
Still, excitement was excitement... and their silence turned to the rowdiness that they should have been.
""""MORE!!!""""
""Play it one more time!!""
Then, there's a splatter of "Oh my gosh!" here and there for those that weren't able to keep a handle on their feelings of exhilaration.
Music just seems to have a way of touching people's feelings.
Together with animation and lyrics that embody characters or a story that people resonate with... the effect is as full-blown as it is!
-----
Of course, to top everything off... 'emcee' just had a very important detail to add.
"I'm glad you guys liked it. It may not be the teasers and trailer that I know you guys are hedging around... but these two should be enough to introduce you with what's to come."
Everyone was still in excitement but listened with rapt attention.
"Of course, these aren't just music videos. Respectively, they are the opening and closing themes of our Creed Animations' debut project- The Teenage Mutant Ninja Turtles Animated Show!" 'Emcee' just went with it. "In a way, it might just be a teaser trailer, isn't it?"
That stalled the crowd again though!
A mix of music and animation was mind-stalling enough... did Creed just have to spoon-feed them with another extra-mindblowing reveal?!
