Sam's Story

* 2020-
* Animatic

***Sam's Story*** consists of Episodes 5 through 10 of Wii Deleted You, and follows Samantha Coleman approximately 10 years after the events of the original trilogy. It was the final set of episodes to be written entirely by IceyPie, and is the longest series within WDY canon in terms of both episode number (with six episodes) and total length (at ~88 minutes, narrowly beating *Corrupted Data: Revived* at ~86 minutes).

The 6-episode series focused primarily on Sam, who discovered and acquired the Wii containing Eteled at a thrift store, with the pair slowly forming a bond of sorts. Throughout, Sam confronts multiple "antagonists", including her school bully, the Wii's former owner, and a second soul within the Wii, who turns out to be Eteled's long-time nemesis.

## Transcript

### Episode 1

Alright, first off. My name is Samantha though people usually just refer to me as Sam.

I’m not really into what other girls are into. Most other girls are into shopping, clothes and makeup or gossip. I'm more into skateboarding, technology and movies. Most of all, video games.

I have game consoles like the XBOX one and the Playstation 4, but one game console has always fascinated me.

The Nintendo Wii.

For some reason, I love the idea of motion based gaming. Sure, motion controls now and days are just pushed off as gimmicky but I didn’t care what people thought. I really wanted a Wii.

Sadly, the Wii is hard to comeby since it’s discontinuation in 2013. With it now being 2016, the only places where you could find them are places like eBay.

For a while, I thought I’d never be able to get a Wii– until I finally found one.

My mother absolutely loves thrift stores and would usually drag me along with her when she went to them. Me, on the other hand… I hate them. All the stuff there is just gross and weird.

Until one day my mom forced me to come with her to a thrift store. I naturally gravitated to the electronics section.

And there it was.

My eyes widened as the Wii caught my eye. The instant I saw it I called my mother over and begged her to buy it. Since it was a thrift store, the prices were way lower than they would normally be in a retail store. She said yes, mostly because this Wii was only 20$.

When we got home I immediately set the Wii up in my bedroom. Once it was done, I turned it on.

Usually, video game consoles would have a setup process where you setup stuff like the time and date, the country you live in, that sorta stuff. For some reason, this Wii I got didn’t have that. Honestly though, I didn’t mind much.

The game that came with the Wii was Wii sports so I decided to play that. I forgot something, though. I had to make my own Mii first for the game. I could just use the guest players that were programmed in but I just didn’t really want to. I closed it out and went into the Mii Channel.

When I got to the Mii Channel I found something… odd.

I saw a Mii already there with its back facing me. It was cowering while repeating itself over and over.

"Please don’t delete me… Please don’t delete me.”

I just stood there for a moment, not saying a word.

The Mii turned around to face me. It looked kinda weird. He was bald and his eyes were huge. He had a small nose and a big smiling mouth.

I hovered over the Mii with my cursor. His name read ‘Eteled.’ What did that name mean? I couldn’t figure it out.

As he stood there, he began to repeat himself again. “Please, don’t delete me.”

I always had a belief that AI had feelings– like they had souls. So, I simply replied with “I’m not going to delete you. Don’t worry.”

Eteled’s expression then changed from a creepy smile to a rather confused look. “What…? You’re not going to delete me? Everyone deletes me.”

I stared at the screen in confusion. “No…? Why don’t you want to be deleted?”

Eteled began to explain that this Wii was previously owned by a kid named Kyle. He said when a Mii is deleted they are sent to a place that he refuses to speak of. I tried to get it out of him but he wouldn’t budge. I’m guessing it’s pretty bad.

I then decided to play Wii Sports without making my own Mii. I just decided to play as Eteled.

Wii sports had a total of five sports packed into it. Tennis, baseball, bowling, golf and boxing. I really liked boxing so I played that. I chose Eteled as my Mii and the game booted up.

In boxing, I obviously played as Eteled. The Mii I was fighting was named Ryan. I looked at Ryan’s skill level and he was at level 124. Now, that may sound tough, but from what I’ve heard 124 makes Ryan the worst CPU player in boxing. So, this should be easy.

The match started and I threw a punch with my Wii remote. With one single hit, Ryan fell to the ground. I made a slight chuckle. I knew this would be easy.

I ended up winning that match easily. I played a lot more matches after that, all of which I played as Eteled. It wasn’t until about 9:30 that I had to go to bed since it was a Sunday and I had school the next day. I turned off the Wii and went to bed.

I’m not a fan of school. Not because of homework or learning useless crap that I’ll never use in the real world. I don’t like school because there’s always people bullying me. Everyone in my class knows that I believe AI have feelings. They always harass me for it.

There’s this one group of bullies– the leader being called William. He goes by Will. He’s a grade A jerk. He doesn’t just bully me but he bullies all the kids who are either unpopular or different. He and his little group of goons like to refer to me as ‘Sam the Psychopath.’ Mainly due to my belief that AI have feelings.

When we got into our homeroom we sat down and waited for our teacher to arrive. The teacher's name was Mr. Brenner. He’s a pretty laid-back teacher and every Monday he’d ask us how our weekend was.

"Alright class, how was your weekend?”

He was met with silence just like every other day. While he waited for someone to share their experiences over the weekend I slowly raised my hand.

“Sam?” Mr. Brenner called on me.

I just sat there for a second as I was thinking how to explain my experiences with Eteled. “I, um… spoke to a Mii on my Nintendo Wii yesterday.”

I don’t know why I shared my experiences with Eteled. Probably just to make Mr. Brenner feel good. After I shared, my class started laughing while I embarrassingly sat there. When the laughing stopped, we carried on with the morning.

Next period I was walking to my next class when Will and his friends– Cooper and Dan– stopped me. “Hey Sam the Psychopath!” Will yelled, pushing me. “Are you missing your little Mii friend?”

“Shut up, Will.” I quietly said as I tried to get past.

"What?” Will gripped my shoulder and spun me around to face him. “What did you say to me? I dare you to repeat that.”

After a second, he let go of my shoulder when I stood quiet. I walked away.

“Yeah, run! Run to your little Mii friend!” He shouted as I continued to walk away.

I got to my next class and everything went by smoothly until about a few minutes before lunch. We were in history and we were working on an assignment about World War I. As I was working, I could hear talking. I looked up and saw another group of bullies talking about me right in front of me. This group consisted of three girls. They usually sit next to each other in classes and would gossip and talk about other people instead of doing any actual work.

On this day I sat right behind them. I could overhear their conversation.

“Y’know Sam, right?”

"Yeah, she’s so weird!”

I tried to ignore them as I continued working.

"Remember the stupid Wii she’s been talking about? Well maybe she has some mental condition and she’s hallucinating!” They laughed.

I scoffed. “What are you guys talking about me for?”

"Hey, were we talking to you?” One of the girls quietly hissed at me.

They think I’m some stupid idiot and some weird kid with a mental condition! And they think I’m gullible enough to keep working and think I was mistaken!

"I know what I hear, and I know what I see.” I quietly confronted them as I leaned forward.

"Just shut up, Sam.”

I leaned in further with a growl. “Stop. Talking. About. Me.”

They were obviously creeped out. “Okay, okay– Fine! Just go back to work now.” One of them spat in a sassy tone.

I overheard them for a bit more and I was surprised to hear they were just talking about their pathetic TV shows and going shopping. I felt vomit rise in my throat. Get a life.

The day went by normally after that other than some kids giving me weird looks. It was fine.

I always walk home from school mainly because I live so close and the fact my mom is always at work on the weekdays. Today was no different, except Will does take the same route to get to his house which is a bit further down from mine.

Sometimes I look back and see him walking a safe distance behind. I didn’t really care though as he doesn’t do much when his two friends aren’t with him, though.

Eventually I got back home and locked the door behind me. I went into my room and decided to talk to Eteled again. I turned on my Wii and sat on my bed as I held the Wii remote in my hand.

As the Wii menu booted up, I pointed the cursor at the Mii Channel, pressing start. I saw Eteled standing there.

“Hey, Eteled!” I said excitedly.

Instead of a greeting, Eteled spoke in a rather scared tone. “Sam, I need you to turn off the Wii.”

“Huh? Why?” I could only question. What did he mean?

"Someone’s coming. Turn off the Wii and hide it!” He commanded. I didn’t understand. Who was coming and why was Eteled so afraid?

Before I could say anything else, I heard running. A faint running that seemed to get closer and closer.

"Sam! Turn off the Wii!” Eteled panicked as I staggered to heed his command. As my finger inched to the power button, I stopped as I heard my window open. I whipped around to look and I saw Will.

“Hey psychopath! Having fun with your little Mii?” He climbed in.

What the hell was he doing here? Did he follow me home? Why was he here?

I looked over at the TV screen with the Wii still on. Eteled was shaking.

Will came in and grabbed the Wii remote out of my hand. “Let’s see what the little guy’s name is!” He mocked as he hovered the cursor over him. The speech bubble containing his name appeared over his head and Will analyzed the name.

“That’s backwards for delete.” He huffed.

“Is it?”

“Yeah, stupid. You really didn’t notice that? You’re dumber than I thought.” He spat mockingly. “But– because his name is backwards for delete– Why don’t I delete him?”

He picked up Eteled and dragged him to the delete icon. I jumped up and tried to pull the Wii remote out of his hands but Will was stronger than me and slowly able to manage his way to get him to the delete icon again. The text box appeared confirming if he wanted to delete the Mii and he inched his way to the yes button. He was able to get to the Yes button and pressed A despite my efforts. The little noise played and he was gone.

Will had a smirk on his face while I stared worriedly at the TV screen. Eteled was being sent to that place that he told me about! I couldn’t imagine the pain that he was going through. I laid on my bed in defeat as Will strolled over to my window. “See you later, Sam the Psychopath!” He yelled as he was preparing to jump back out of my window.

Before he could leave, we both heard a voice.

“You just made the biggest mistake of your life.”

The voice sounded like Eteled! I sprang out of my bed to find him back in the Mii Channel. This time he was standing next to another Mii that looked eerily similar to Will.

Will then turned around to face the TV.

"This is you… Right, Will?”

Will was in a state of shock. His Mii looked worried as if something terrible was about to happen. He slowly walked to the back of my room.

"Why are you so frightened, Will? Are you scared? Just like your Mii?”

He didn’t answer.

“Well, one thing’s for sure. You brought this on yourself, Will. I’ll be right back.” Eteled announced as he walked off screen.

A few seconds later, he appeared back on screen with an axe. He kicked Will’s mii over and slammed his foot on him to keep him from squirming.

“Eteled, stop! What are you doing?!” I yelled in fear as Eteled raised the weapon.

“Shut up! I’ve told someone not to delete me this way before, and I’m not afraid to do it this way again!”

Will just stood there, stricken with fear. He was unable to move or speak. I ran to turn off the Wii but I tripped on my bed leg and fell to the ground.

“I’ve gone through the pain of being deleted… And now it’s time for your Mii to suffer!” Eteled shouted. “Say goodbye, you heartless b–”

I turned off the TV before Eteled could finish his sentence. Getting up, I turned to Will. “You need to leave.” I said quietly.

Without hesitation, he ran out my window. I closed it after he left and sat on my bed. Standing there for minutes on end, questions filling my mind. Why did this happen? Why did Eteled do this? What was the result going to be…? What was the resolution intended to be…?

Though, a certain question filled up my mind the most.

Why did I get this Wii...?
