The man in the suit walked up to the group. He had a very well-maintained haircut, and his clothing was extremely clean.
"It seems as if you have defeated the gang that has been ravaging this city." he stated with a smile.
Brazilian Bug Boy walked up to him, holding Sleeping Dude. "Yeah, we did, and this guy was one of them." he replied.
The man in the suit nodded and whistled. From out of the corner a man dressed in all cardboard armor came out of nowhere. "Take him away." the man in the suit commanded.
The man in cardboard saluted, before taking Sleeping Dude. "Yes sir!" he replied, leaving to take Sleeping Dude off to jail.
As the man wearing cardboard armor left, Dinkleflop, who was in the back of the group, felt a sudden breeze. He turned around to see a figuring running away so fast, they were just a blur.
The man in the suit straightened his suit a bit and spoke up saying, "Now you may be wondering who I am. I am the president of this country. You can call me Mr. Suit."
Kookakoo's eyes shimmered with excitement. "We've met a king, a princess, and now a president!" she shouted.
Mr. Suit took a suitcase out of nowhere and opened it, revealing a ton of money. "For defeating such a powerful gang, I will reward you with a bajillion dollars."
Octopus Man and Kookakoo's eyes shined as they looked into the briefcase. Emberlyn scratched her head in confusion and asked, "Wait, you have dollars here too?"
Mr. Suit waved her off and said, "Are you going to take it, or are you going to complain about the writing of this novel?" Emberlyn waved her hands nervously, "No no. I'm sorry." she said.
Octopus Man snatched the briefcase and looked at Kookakoo. They both smiled and simultaneously yelled, "UNLIMITED BISCUITS!"
Brazilian Bug Boy also thought about what he would buy with the money. He imagined a soda. Lusha popped his thought bubble and shook her head. "So basic." she remarked. "Stop reading my mind!" Brazilian Bug Boy shouted.
Floran also thought about what she wanted. She imagined a really comfy couch. She smiled a bit thinking about this. "Oooooh. Floran's smiling." Cutecumber teased. Floran gritted her teeth and punched Cutecumber over the horizon.
Mr. Suit laughed and started walking away. "Enjoy your reward!" he said while leaving.
Cutecumber returned from the other side of the horizon after flying around the planet due to Floran's punch. She got up and brushed the dust off her hoodie and turned to Emberlyn. "So, what are you gonna buy?" she asked as if nothing happened.
Emberlyn looked down shyly and said, "Maybe a new phone or something."
Lusha rolled her eyes. "You guys are thinking too small. A bajillion dollars is so much." she stated. "I for one am going to by a vending machine." she concluded.
Octopus Man gasped in shock. "Now don't go and splurge like that!" he shouted.
The story has been illicitly taken; should you find it on Amazon, report the infringement.
Floran was trying to ignore the absurdity of the conversation but facing the other way. She then came to a sudden realization. "Wait, where's Dinkleflop?" she asked.
They all stopped and looked around, but he was nowhere to be found.
Dinkleflop was running towards the figure wearing the tattered brown cloak. "I FINALLY FOUND YOU!" he shouted. The figure turned a corner and jumped up high, on top of a skyscraper.
Dinkleflop narrowed his eyes in frustration. He grabbed the side of the building and started climbing up it at high speeds. When he made it to the top, he saw the figuring jumping from rooftop to rooftop across the city.
Dinkleflop did the same, once again, gaining in on the figure. He ended up getting so close, he could almost touch the back of the cloak, but the figure jumped down from one of the skyscrapers. Dinkleflop tried to regain his balance so he wouldn't fall. He looked down to see that the figure had landed on the ground without taking any damage.
The figure continued running away. Dinkleflop, who was still on top of a skyscraper, clenched his fists in anger. He was so close, yet he managed to let the criminal get away again.
As the group walked through the city, they bumped into Dinkleflop. "There you are!" Cutecumber exclaimed. Dinkleflop looked down angrily and responded, "Yeah. I was chasing that criminal I mentioned. I was this close to catching them once and for all."
"Why are this criminal so wanted anyway?" Brazilian Boy asked. Dinkleflop turned around and replied, "Well, take a look at this flashback."
In the flashback, Dinkleflop was at the agency he worked for. Suddenly, a figure in a tattered brown cloak broke in and stole some party hats that were hung on a wall. "NOT THE EMERGENCY PARTY HATS!" A co-worker of Dinkleflop yelled.
The figure then ran into the portal that can send someone to the center of reality. The co-worker turned to Dinkleflop and yelled, "GO IN THAT PORTAL AND CHASE THAT PERSON DOWN NOW! THEY ARE OFFICIALLY THE MOST WANTED CRIMINAL EVER!" The co-worker then kicked Dinkleflop into the portal.
"And yeah, that's the flashback." Dinkleflop concluded. Floran sighed and said, "You were at the center of reality just yesterday." Dinkleflop nodded and responded, "Yeah. That person has only been wanted for a day."
"But that doesn't make any sense. How did the criminal get past the Gatekeeper and how did they even make it here?" Floran asked angrily.
Dinkleflop thought to himself for a second before replying, "If I remember correctly, the criminal slapped the Gatekeeper with a singular squishy sock. That's probably how they got passed the Gatekeeper and made it here."
Octopus Man nodded and said, "Yeah, that makes sense."
Cutecumber was on her phone and said, "Hey guys, look at this. I posted about our adventure to defeat the Triune online and it's getting mad views." Octopus Man jumped in the air in excitement. "YES! WE ARE FAMOUS!" he shouted.
Suddenly a ghost in the shape of a notebook came out of the ground. "OoOoOh... I am the ghost of notebooks. I have come to kill you."
Octopus Man shook his head and walked past the ghost. "Sorry. You've been written out of the series." he stated. The ghost turned around and stuttered, "B..but I just got this gig and..." Octopus Man raised his hand and cut him off, saying, "Sorry I don't make the rules." The ghost just looked down, "Awww." it groaned sadly, as the rest of them also walked past it.
Meanwhile, Mr. Suit made it back to his office. He sat on a coach and began speaking to people sitting across from him. "I've given them some money so they'll probably leave soon." he said.
The people across from him were Scratchy, Jinjin, and Mimi. "They killed the boss though!" Scratchy shouted.
"I'm aware. It's a shame. Xanthe was doing very well at killing people so the population of this city wouldn't get too large. I must have paid her at least 50 zillion dollars over the course of her employment."
"Well, what are you going to do now?" Jinjin asked. Mr. Suit shrugged and responded, "As I said, I gave them money so they should be on their way soon."
Mimi suddenly got a notification on her phone which startled her. She took out her phone and said, "Wait what? The guys that killed Xanthe are trending online."
"For what?" Mr. Suit asked, sitting up slightly. Mimi scrolled through her phone and replied, "It says here that they are trying to defeat something called the Triune."
Upon hearing this, Mr. Suit felt his blood boil. He stood up and started walking out of the room. "Where are you going?" Scratchy asked.
Mr. Suit opened the door. "I changed my mind. I'm going to kill them." he said coldly, before slamming the door behind him.
