It's the Gardenview 30th anniversary! Me and all the mains are preparing the party with our besties. I see Bobette wrapping presents, Bassie decorating the place with flowers, and Gourdy- well, he was just running around excitedly. At about 12:00, everybody's here and partying. It's nice- the place is closed, so no kids are here, and we all get time to ourselves. I feel someone tap my shoulder. I wheel around and- ugh, Astro. I don't know why he'd want MY attention. "What do you want, idiot." "I- I need you to come with me, it's important." Why would he want me for something important? Whatever. I follow him to a back room. When we're inside, he pulls out some weird branch. Where did he get this from? "Uh- what on earth is that. This doesn't seem important." "It's a magical thing. I like it." Wait. Magical? The hell does that mean? But he likes it. And I'm familiar with what I do to things he likes. I take it out of his hands and break all the sticks off. When I look back up at him, I expect to see his poor little devastated face- the one he always has when I destroy his stuff- but he's all of a sudden glowing white, on the floor. What the hell?? He gets- no, FLOATS back up- HOW IS HE DOING THAT?? He looks directly into my eyes- he's changed. I have never been so afraid in my life. I run out of the room, but when I'm out back into the diner, everything is chaos. What were previously my friends- the mains- were wreaking havoc on everyone, destroying everything that they had set up just a few hours ago. The handlers are evacuating everyone. I'm trying to think of what to do when Astro- whatever he is- comes floating back out of the room. I immediately start running after the others, as we are all chased out of the building. We're on all the bottom of the small hill Gardenview was built on, and when we turn around, we see the silhouettes of the mains standing on the top.
