Mkay. So. Apparently me & my family were taking a trip, and we decided to stop at this nasty rundown strip mall. On the sign, rather falling down, I see a dull orange sign that reads "Phantom and Alien".

"Sweet!" I say.

"Ugh," my sister says, but I drag her in anyway.

The place is very tiny, very dark, and very crowded. There's some non-Downer minding the counter, who informs me that Hookbill is not in this day. I peer into the back*, but there's no-one there. I am crushed.

Then, a young lady named Wilwarin6538 rushes in, late for her shift.

Me and my sister buy some Alien-shaped chocolates, which hopefully do not contain wasps. As we are leaving, we hear news of dictator-for-life Kath's illness.



*Ugh, typical customer behavior.
