Chapter Thirteen: The Problem Referred To In The Previous Chapter

"There's a problem?" Techno leapt to his feet energetically. "GO GO GO GO!"

And with that, he jumped off of the roof, landing perfectly on the ground outside of the entrance.

"Sonic in a maid dress?" I exclaimed, climbing awkwardly to my feet. "GO GO GO GO!"

And with that, I jumped off of the roof, immediately remembering that I'm not nearly as swag as Technoblade, and that I will mess up the landing and harm myself. Before I could break my legs, however, Techno caught me, holding me bridal-style. Romantic music began playing loudly from the restaurant. The beautiful moment only lasted for a few seconds before Techno dropped me and ran into the building. I picked myself off of the ground and followed him, Glitch in the rear.

As I entered, a strange sight caught my eye. It was Sonic, the hedgehog that had kicked Ennard out of his apartment, and Shrek the waiter, passionately making out in the corner of the restaurant. Sonic was, indeed, in a maid dress, and I had to admit, it looked pretty good on him. I tore my eyes from the distraction and ran back to the table, where Ennard was sitting.

"What seems to be the problem?" Techno asked.

"We have no money to pay for our food," Ennard explained.

"What?!" I shouted incredulously. "But I thought we had money!"

"We did," Ennard said. "I may or may not have gambled a little bit at the casino-"

Me, Glitch, and Techno groaned. "Seriously, dude?"

"I'm sorry, okay?" Ennard apologized angrily. "I was doing good for a while!"

"If I may interject," a voice said nearby. We all turned to see a large, green man standing nearby, a pair of glasses framing his kind eyes.

"I do apologize for my misdemeanors, yet I couldn't help but unintentionally eavesdrop upon your pitiful circumstances," he said, in a rather formal manner. "If it would be pleasing to yourselves, I could trade my own currency in place of yours, in order to form transactions for your nourishment."

"Oh wow, thank you for do-" Glitch tried to speak, but I interrupted them.

"Thank you so much, kind sir, but I'm sure we'll manage." I smiled. "We have to have some money here somewhere."

"No we don't." Ennard told us. "I gambled it all."

"Prithee," the man intervened. "Allow me to assist you."

I sighed and nodded. "I can't thank you enough, sir."

"It is of no bother to me," he said, smiling, pulling out a few bills and setting them on the table. "I feel it necessary to inform you that I go by the denomination of Smart Hulk."

"Nice to meet you!" I extended a hand quickly, which he shook.

"Thank you again, sir, for your services," Techno said, nodding. "By any chance, do you know Quackity? From Las Nevadas?"

"Do I?" Smart Hulk repeated, a look of anger on his face. "Ah yes, my friends, I have known the name 'Quackity' for what seems like eons of time. That nefarious gentleman has bilked me of my casino. I was previously in possession of one, in a time that was not that long ago, but once that erection known as Las Nevadas was established, I was squandered of it. I'd give aught to envision him taken down before my orbs."

"Well, lucky for you, we're trying to take him down." Glitch told him. "He needs to pay for his crimes."

"Would you be interested in joining our merry band of companions?" I offered. "My name is Wonder, and I am the main character- I mean the leader of the group. This is Glitch, my best friend, Technoblade, the warrior, and Ennard, the- wait, where's Ennard?"

We all looked around the restaurant, but Ennard was nowhere to be found.

"Where is he?" Glitch wondered.

"Maybe he went outside?" Techno offered. "We were shouting at him quite a bit for gambling all of our money."

"Or maybe he's gone to Quackity." I interjected.

"What?" Glitch asked.

"Purple Guy...he's Ennard's father." I reminded them. "He might have gone to him!"

I quickly ran out of the restaurant, earning a few disapproving looks from the diners. I shoved open the doors and looked around.

"His car's gone..." I said nervously.

I heard Glitch, Techno, and Smart Hulk run up to me.

"What happened?" Glitch asked. I turned to them, a worried expression on my face.

"I think that Ennard betrayed us."
