A child’s high pitched scream rang out though the diner. “Mommy, I don’t wanna eat broccoli! It’s yucky!”

“You have to eat broccoli, sweetheart. Or else you won’t grow up big and strong!” the mother cooed, trying to lift a forkful of the nastiest looking broccoli in history to her son’s lips. Seriously, that thing looked like a giant plant had diarrhea or something.

“No!” the child screamed, knocking the fork to the ground. The sound of metal hitting a dirt and bug-encrusted floor made Riza’s ears perk up. She pushed away the mountain of lard-covered bacon she was eating and bounded towards the fork on all fours.

Upon reaching it, she picked it off the floor with her teeth, appreciating the feel of the cool metal against her tongue. By this time everyone in the diner had turned around to stare.

“Riza! Potato!” a voice called from behind her, simultaneously with a snap of the fingers. Riza’s right eye began to twitch violently, and then suddenly, she began to talk. “…no way that you can hypnotize me. I don’t believe in that kind of stuff. You think I’m crazy or some"” Riza cut herself off as she noticed that she was on her knees on the floor, surrounded by what seemed to be about 20 staring people.

“What’re you looking at?” she barked, turning to stare at each of them in turn. They all hurriedly turned back to their meals. The little boy from earlier was silent. “Honey, if you don’t eat your broccoli, you’re going to end up like that crazy lady over there,” the mother whispered into her child’s ear. At this, the child began shoveling the pile of liquid green slime into his mouth, not even pausing to take a breath.

* On other side of town *

"Well, here's the truck depot," Zeo exhaled and turned all around, "now where's the convenient store you were talking about."

Hawkeye sucked hard on her lollipop, her third one since they left the truck with the corpse, and shrugged. "This is odd. It's gone!" The hard lady pointed at a small hardware store tugged in the corner. "It used to be there!"

"Maybe the hardware store owner might know where the old shop has move to." Marc replied.

The three musketeers then entered the new hardware store.
