0008 (OASIS: Trials of BL00DSHED)

**0008** is the eighth episode of the first season of the Average Films limited series OASIS: Trials of BL00DSHED. It is 1 hour and 19 minutes long and it is written and directed by ProGamerDude543.

## Plot

Martin Sorrento jerks awake, looking frantically around. He is in a strange, almost serene new land, with trees, grass, and birds chirping. He looks around the area and stops dead in his tracks when he sees his father, Nolan, standing nearby. He rushes in joy to go greet him, only for Nolan to deliver a swift punch to his face. Martin staggers and looks at his father in disbelief. Nolan tells Martin that he is utterly disappointed in him about what he has done, and that the actions he committed cannot be forgiven. Martin breaks down and yells at his dad that he did all this for him. Nolan replies that Martin is failing him and that he needs to do a better job. Martin continues to scream at his father until he slaps Martin in the face. Martin abruptly wakes up and realizes that it was a dream. He vows revenge on BL00DSHED for attempting to mess up his plans.

Meanwhile, BL00D and the gang desperately search for a way to access the OASIS Codebase and undo everything Martin has done. Ultroid suggests the gang to head towards Castle Anorak as it might have answers because that was where James Halliday, now Wade Watts, keeps most of the OASIS' hidden access programming. They decide to head there but are caught in a skirmish in Sector 10. They dogfight their way out of it only for Enclaive to be shot down and having to land on Utopius, a fantasy planet, only to find that Martin had intercepted them there and he was getting read to zero them all out. Before he does so, Martin says that he understands why the team is trying to stop him, but also mocks them for thinking that they could best him and The Left Hand of God. Walker in turn retorts by saying that he is just trying to be a knockoff of his father, which strikes a nerve in Martin. Martin goes on an intense swear filled tirade about how Parzival killed his father and robbed him of the company and the OASIS, which he rightfully deserved. He then aims his gun at Enclaive, but 9inety9ine, thinking quickly, rescues them all by chanting “Dea Pro Mihi, Audite Meus Dico... Patepacio Prodigium Pro Nos Totus!" and grabbing all 4 others, effectively teleporting them away while Martin yells in rage.
