Fanon:One Shy Celebrity

Chapter 1: Moving Out
Bridgeport; one of the biggest cities in SimNation. It's always bustling with activities during the night, be it at bars, lounges or clubs. It's impossible for an outgoing Sim to stay stuck at home.

However, even though Bridgeport offers many opportunities, sometimes it doesn't fits the lifestyle of other Sims. This is the case of the Paladios household. With their action queue always full with jobs and school, they were unable to keep up with the late-night activities, always returning exhausted and seeking nothing more than sleep. During the Sunday morning, Darren, the well-knwon World-Renowed Surgeon, sat down on the chair and began to use his computer, one computer he barely used. He immediatly opened the internet browser, and began searching for plane tickets for a voyage.

Meanwhile, Zackery had just awakened from his sleep as his alarm clock rang. Sunday, the last day of the precious weekend. He got up, made his bed, and instantly headed for his shower-bathtub hybrid - the Shower of Power.

After taking his exhilarating shower and being squeaky clean, he proceeded to walk downstairs for breakfast. Or brunch. Whatever. He was going to eat the Stuffed Turkey his mother got from job. While it was tasy, he still preferred food she made herself. It was much better. Specially the hamburgers.

He, however, noticed his parents sitting on the hall, the one with a long table and many chairs that they rarely ever used. Curious, he sat on a chair aswell.

"Hey, what's up?" he asked.

"I bought some tickets, for Sunset Valley. We're going to spend some time there." his father answered.

Zackery didn't took the answer too positively. He didn't liked moving; it was too tiresome. And he barely knew anything about Sunset Valley.

"But how are we going to get our stuff there? It's quite far from there; we have to go through both Twinbrook and Riverview!" he replied.

"Two planes are going to Sunset Valley. We will be onboard the first, and the second will be a cargo plane, carrying out furniture." his mother explained. They were interrupted by the sound of a truck honking.

"Oh, the cargo trucks are here. We better get going. We will go to the airport and the trucks will take our furniture to the airport." his father commented. The three got out of their chairs, and proceeded to go to the garage. Darren and Zackery boarded into the orange Bwan Speedster YL, while Lindsay went on her Margaret Vaguester.

Chapter 2: Finding a new home
Zackery opened his Edu-Osmosis laptop, with it's layer customized to have a fiery red look, resembling his favourite color - red. He opened the internet browser, and began searching about Sunset Valley.

"So, it is a town founded by the Goth family, and built by the Landgraabs. So there's where the Landgraabs reside. I remember hearing about the Goths before, but I didn't knew they founded Sunset Valley." he thought. His thoughts were interrupted by a voice comming from the intercom. "The plane is now reaching Sunset Valley. Please keep your seatbelts tight and shut down any eletronic device as we land." it stated. Zackery shut down his laptop, and looked at the window. And he had to admit, the view was very beautiful. Hopefully he would find himself comfortable during his stay.

Quickly, the airplane reached the airport destination, making a soft but quick landing. He and his parents stepped out to find themselves free of the usual industrious ambient from Bridgeport. Shortly after, the cargo plane landed aswell. They were quickly greeted by a woman wearing a business suit, a notepad and glasses.

"Hello, I'm Mrs. Sherril, I'm from the travel services. You're here from Starlight Shores, right?" she asked in a friendly tone.

"Actually, we're from Bridgeport." Darren corrected her.

"Oh, right, sorry." she said as she changed her tone to a more serious tone. Zackery felt curious about that. "So, I'm here to help you find a house here. I assume you want a penthouse, right...?" she asked.

"Uh, no, we want an actual house. There are no penthouses here, if I am right." Darren replied. The travel woman seemed a little surprised, but then shortly recovered.

"Ok, I have a list of houses available for you. Follow me, I'll guide you." she said as she walked towards her car; a black Yomoshoto Evasion.

"She's acting a litle weird." Zackery thought as he and his parents got on the vehicle.

"This house might suit you pretty well." Mrs. Sherril commented as she guided them into the Condor Museum Lofts. "It has 3 floors, and slots for 3 cars. When you have reached that stage in life where suburban living has lost its appeal, it is time to move up to this stunning abode." she described the house as the household explored it. "While I like it's design, it's too expansive for us. We don't exactly need 4 bedrooms, and some of it's rooms are a bit repetitive." Darren commented.

"In that case, I have a better house for you." she replied.

"This one is stylish, and it's features are not too repetitive." Mrs. Sherril said as she stopped her car in front of the Wagner's Repose. "This is the perfect home for the composer seeking inspiration or Sims who just love living among the ocean waves and the redwoods. This is a grand old house with wraparound porches and a fourth-story cupola to take in the best views in town." she described. "It looks nice and all, but we'd like to be closer to the center of the town." Lindsay stated. Again, they went back to the Yomoshoto to find another house.

"Look, this is the last house we have to offer." Mrs. Sherril stated after a long time searching for houses. She then showed the household the Unabridged house. "A traditional cape style house is made modern by bridging a large custom pool. Easy living on this beach front property will make you feel like you are on vacation every day of the week." she described. "This house fits everything I was looking for. Proximity to the beach, fair ammount of bedrooms, actual seperated rooms, a swimming pool and a yard, it is as good as our house back in Bridgeport. I'm buying it." Darren said as he handed her the money.

"Huh, well, that's odd. Nobody ever wanted to move in here as this house is too small for it's price. But anyway, enjoy your stay at Sunset Valley." she said as she recieved the payment, and drove off.

After he made sure she was gone, Zackery turned to his father.

"Hey, didn't you noticed she was acting a bit...weird?" he asked.

"Now that you said it...yeah, she was treating us like we were snobs." he replied. "But it's not that everyone is like this, we can't base our opinions about a town just from a single citizen." he continued. "Now, all we have to wait for is for the cargo truck to-" he said, but was interrupted by the sound of honking again. "Oh, it's here."
