"Ugh! I'm starving!" laughed Lord. "Hey, Anna! Should we eat somewhere?""Yeah. But we need to eat somewhere cheap because the hotel's dinner hour doesn't open until 7 pm."Gerard sighs. "Oh! What about that place?"Happy's eyes quiver upon seeing what Gerard is pointing at."Oh! Ain't that somethin'? Happy Hornet's Spaghetteria..." said Fred."Filipinos love their spag..." smiled Lord."Uh... This place look abandoned..." said Anna."But there are lights!" smiled Lord. "Tried Italian and Monopolian Spag. Never tried Pinoy Spag before.""My God! You'll LOVE it! Its sauce is made of banana ketchup instead of tomuhtoes. It's AMAZING!!!""You mean, tomaytos?" asked Gerard."Yeah. That's what I said. Tomuhtoes," said Lord. "Let's get in there!""Uh... I'm not very comfortable eating there. I was killed in a restaurant just like this, y'see?""It's alright, Haps! It's gonna be alright!" Lord patted his back. "C'mon!"The group walks into the restaurant. The doors open by themselves."By the way. How DID ya die?" asked Fred."Dude!" yelled Anna."Oh... Uh... I was supposed to inherit the restaurant, ye? Name's Happy Tomas Jr. Y'know... Hired as a security guard then they just *POP!!!* Raped me, killed me, placed me in this suit, gave me cybernetics, and *POP!!!* prayed to Satan to make me a demonic monstrosity. I was supposed to serve 'im 'til Mr. Reaper reprogrammed me!""Wait..." said Anna. "Serve 'who?'"Fred smiles. *DING!!!*He rang the bell.No response.*DING, DING, DING!!!*Suddenly, a strange clown with spring-like limbs walks in."Top of the evnin' to ya..." he spoke in a thick Irish accent. "I am the robot cashier. May I take yer order?"Happy is horrified."Hello!" smiled Lord. "Five Happy Chickens, Five Happy Spags (Pinoy style...), Five Happy Cheeseburgers, Five Hap Dogs, Five Happy Wings, Five Happy Bagnets, Five Happy Q's, Five Happy Burger Steaks, Two Happy Pizzas, ALL THE DRINKS (Five each), AND ALL KNOWN DESSERTS (Also Five Each)...""Very well. Is that all?" asked the robot cashier."MacJovial!" roared Happy. "I knew I could smell you from somewhere.""I simply do not understand what you speak of, my good sir. Would you want a pill with that, sir?""Don't play COY with me!""What are you talking about?" asked Anna."HIM!!! HE'S MACJOVIAL!!! HE'S THE ONE WHO MOLESTED ME AND PUT ME IN THIS DAMNED ETERNAL PRISON!!!"Lord prepares his stone armor, Gerard takes out his katana, and Fred prepares his teeth."Please... Gentlemen. I am not who you think I am.""There's only ONE MacJovial!" yelled Happy."But didn't Dillon McAldritch die 20 years ago? Didn't Mr. Reaper kill him?""Wait, really?" asked Lord, as everyone else lays down their weapons."How'd you know?" asked Fred."I listen to his history lessons..." said Anna. "He's our teacher?""So, apparently, all MacJovials are Irish?""Ah, beggin' your pardon for any mix-up. As you can see, I'm an animatronic mascot. The original MacJovial was a fuckin' bloke c*** donned in a deadly clown get-up, believe it or not.""But they didn't make MacJovial mascots..." said Anna."Yes. But Mr. McAldritch created me like he did you... In other words... Howiya, me sibling...?" said the MacJovial. "This is so... fucked..." said Happy.Later... the group eats at the table...They eat a lot of the meals they bought while Happy ate the offerings.Happy, however, continued staring at MacJovial, who stood next to the cash register, staring back."I'm absolutely bloody certain, a hundred and twelve percent, that it's him. I can feel his spirit. It's bloody him, no doubt about it.""But Mr. Reaper killed him twenty years ago..." said Anna. She shows him an image of three suits from her holo-watch."See the first era? When he made that suit, he became the deadliest Superhero in Metro San Diego and was infamous for having his first kill being Mr. McAldritch right after he escaped prison he was put in that same year. He then proceeded to hunt and kill other supernatural beings.""Just sayin'. His first suit makes 'im look like a fuckin' fruit," said Fred."Dude. Offensive," said Anna."Nah. Like an actual fruit. Like an orange, or somethin'...""Do I look like a pineapple?" asked Gerard."Nah! Wait a minute..." said Fred."I think you're more of a grapefruit..." said Lord."Lord. You're a Goddamned fucking grapefruit," sad Fred. "Gerard is clearly a mango..."Happy stares at the clown man.He blinks as the clown man is suddenly at their table."Ah!" yelled Happy."Top of the evenin' to ya," said MacJovial."Hello..." said Happy. "Yer Happy's kid, right?""Ye. Happy Jr. Born 1947. Killed 1967. Me father was half-Brit an' half Pinoy and me mother was an American.""Ah. Ain't that interestin'?" asked MacJovial. "HAHAHAHAHAHAHAHAHAHAHHAHAHA!!! HYAHYAHYAHYAHAYHYAHAYHAYAHYAHYAHYAHYA!!!"The others are creeped out by his sudden laugh."The fuck's your deal? You on drugs or what?" asked Fred."Ah, sure, apologies. Just me old habits kickin' in, ya know?" asked MacJovial. "Have ya ever given Seven Nights at Happy's a go? It's like a proper hit in the gamin' world, so they say."Everyone stares at him with sus."Bet," smiled Lord.Later... They hook up their Funtendo Switch to the TV and play the game..."Holy SHIT!!! He survived Night Five! I could never GET PAST Night Five!" smiled Anna."YOHOHOHO!!!" smiled Lord.Happy just stares at MacJovial. He stomps toward the checkout counter, looking inside the backrooms."I beg yer pardon," said Mac Jovial, whose spirit is next to Happy's body. "What do ya reckon ya at, me bloke?"Happy turns to him. He ignores him and stomps inside.Happy walks inside the doors. He sees nothing but darkness, so her turns on his flashlight to look around.He sees the mascots..."Hm..." said Happy.He looks around the maze-like corridor and finally sees a journal. He reads it."'10:23 PM. I can't believe he's here. I've done it! The son of me old partner! I heard he has connections with the Reaper and Prometheus. Oh, what a wonderful day for me. I can finally have my revenge and update Aurora about Prometheus' plans.'
-Dillon McAldritch.
'Plans?' What 'plans'?"
"AAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAH!!!" Happy hears Anna's scream.He runs outside and sees that MacJovial had strangled all of his friends."Please be a nice bloke let them down, gently," said Happy."MMMMPH!!!"They all yelled.Even Gerard couldn't escape while he tries phasing out of his arm in gaseous form."Ya just couldn't keep it in yer feckin' pants. Fine. Yes. I'm McAldritch. How are ya?""How are you an animatronic?""I did a ritual that in case I was killed, I'd become like one of you! Gave meself some cybernetic enhancements and sort myself out from the hardship of constant broken bones... HAHAYHAYAHYAHYAHYAHAYAHAHAHHAHAHAHHAHAHA!!!I'M GONNA MAKE YE VOMIT ALL YER MOTHERFECKIN' BONES AND PLACE YE ALL IN ME MASCOTS!!!"
"MMPH!!! MMPH!!!" they all shivered.Happy sighs. "You think you're the only one with a level up?"Happy begins activating missiles and blasters from all over his body.Anna pulls her mouth out from the tentacles. "CAN YOU USE ATTACKS THAT WON'T FUCKING MURDER US!?!? MMPH!!!"Happy creates Spirit Gauntlets and teleports in front of him and throws a very slow but heavy punch at MacJovial.Happy punches MacJovial over and over with his Spirit Gauntlets as Mac Jovial tries to suck his soul by opening his mouth, revealing thousands of fangs inside his worm-like jaw that spiral down into his stomach of the unknown.Happy begins to shut down.Anna then manages to break free and use her string to jam the Eldritch creature's gears.MacJovial then screeches, letting go of the others as Happy proceeds to activate his flamethrower and burns the restaurant. "NO!!! NO, NO!!! NO, NO, NO!!!" MacJovial stares at the children.He grabs Lord's throat and pulls him in, beginning to suck his soul out of his mouth as Lord slowly turns pale.They all grab Lord and scream, "HAPPY!!!"Happy slowly reboots.His eyes turn red once more, activating, as he turns to see that Lord's soul is being sucked.Happy then grabs MacJovial's head and crushes it as his brains and skull shatters and leaks out of the mascot armored mask.He lets go of his head, which flops to the ground but slowly regenerates and recombines, as he grabs and carries his friends away as the restaurant explodes.*BOOM!!!*A loud screech could be heard from the inside."KREYYYYEYAY!!! KRYYYYEAH!!! KRYYYYYYYYYYYYYYYYYYYYYYYYYYYYYEAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAH!!!"The group watches as the screech slowly dies down."What the fuck...?" asked Anna. "What the fuck was all... THAT!?!?""That was McAldritch. Apparently, he repaired himself and came back for some reason. Maybe thru Aurora Morningstar.""Who?""Do you not know? Oh my God... He didn't tell you...""What?" asked Anna."Prometheus had been battling Aurora for years for an unknown reason... She tried invading our world around 40 years ago.""Wait... She's the Dictator who tried invading your world!" smiled Anna. "Wait... He was working for her? Wait... Is SHE the great evil Miguel is destined to defeat?""Pretty much..." said Happy. "After all... When you think about it... This entire group has connections with this war... Gerard was made a warrior to defeat the Casinites who sided with Aurora. I was a result of the Aurora sympathizer's creations. Athena was captured and raised by Prometheus to act as his footsoldiers in the war. And the four of you are the most important things to him.""The war's still ongoing!?" asked Anna."Why do you think he's been recruitin' people like us all over the Multiverse, desperately conquering worlds to defeat Aurora?""Why? What's the answer to all this?""That's the thing. At this point... We still have no idea what they're fighting about. But Prometheus states that it all lies with the Splooge and how it's created.""Wait. I thought Splooge was a fungus that grew in our world," said Fred."Ye. But that's only half true. We were never told what made it that way... They say that nation in your world 2,000 years ago manufactured it from some sort of living creature they farmed... native to the Philippines..."Lord and Anna look terrified by this revelation."He actually never told you any of this?" asked Happy."No!?" asked Anna."Hm. Wonder what he hadn't been telling me as well..."
