1st Quarter Alert [Action/Video]
[When Calhoun awakes, she finds herself facedown on a table in what must be Tapper's. The wood is slightly sticky under her cheek and smells of root beer, although when she moves a hand around stiffly, there's no mug anywhere to go with it. Which is strange.
What's also strange is that she's in Tapper's when she's supposed to be leaving Sugar Rush. That was the last thing that happened, right? Wreck-It had finally gotten his butt moving and they were going back to where they belonged before...
Stiffly, Calhoun sits up and looks around. And her eyes narrow. This isn't Tapper's. Wherever this is, it isn't the familiar watering hole filled with other arcade citizens. There isn't a single familiar face anywhere. And her gun is nowhere to be found.
For that matter, her armor isn't anywhere to be found. This is a plain white dress. What in the seven levels is this dress.
Calhoun is not amused. With a low growl, she gets to her feet - hits her head on the low-hanging light over the table - and takes another glaring look around the bar. Definitely not in Sugar Rush anymore. This isn't saccharine pink enough. There is, however, a thick journal with her name on it. She knows better than to leave a key item like that behind. After flipping through it quickly and deciding it's infinitely TL;DR, she takes the impatient route and just pokes at the transmission options a few times before she finds the video function.]
Anybody care to share what the flying fairydust is going on around here? Short version. I don't have the time to go through this whole cheat guide here.
[Aaand end transmission.
Alright. Now. First things first. She has to find her scanner, then her gun, then her armor. Then she can figure out what happened.
And somebody is going to get smacked for this.
Calhoun can be spotted slowly making her way through the main part of the village, looking almost like a lioness on the hunt at first as she tries to sniff out any kind of threat. Once she's made her stops into all the stores and found what she's looking for, she'll be a little more at ease, but no less irritated-looking. She's still got this place to scope out and figure out.]

What, did he hit his head on something harder than usual and forget?
no subject
It's worse than that! He doesn't even remember savin' everyone! Last thing he remembers is falling into Diet Cola Mountain. [Scowling because it was a lame thing.]
no subject
Like he's from the last checkpoint or something? How did that happen?

This is kind of making her head hurt. She sighs.]
All week, kid? The last thing I remember is heading out of your game before the arcade opened.
no subject
You don't come over to Sugar Rush often, Sarge. Or if ya do, it isn't like you stay 'til the arcade's 'bout to open!

Guess that means I know stuff you dunno yet, huh!
no subject
Unless the Cy-Bugs get loose into Burger Time, I think I'll live without knowing everything that's coming up.

I'm pretty sure, kid. Promise.

Oh, fudge biscuits. That's no fun!

Life isn't always candycanes and gumdrops, munchkin. At least outside of your game.
