Chapter 3:

Enter The Chaos

Blood Sugar Rush!


"Aw, come on, come on, COME ON! I need to find them as quick as possible! Their evil pawns are already inside the town!"

The talking bee, about double the size of a normal one, keeps dashing forward, zig-zagging in a panic doing so. A honeycomb-like tablet as big as a human palm keeps floating in front of it, adorned with five honeycomb cell symbols atop of it. The middle one is in a golden yellow color, surrounded by four other ones in dark blue, dark pink, white and green.

A green monster of sour candy strings, with nothingness as a face and red glowing dots as eyes sneaks up on Evelyn from behind. Upon seeing the beast she inches back in fear.

Evelyn: What... what on earth is that thing?! Is it after me?
Candy spaghetti monster: Hehehe. Fear not, old lady. I am not after you. Well... not right now. I want that cake over there. Give it to me. GIVE IT TO ME...
Evelyn: You want the cake? But that cake is...

"Hold it right there!"

Something small flits past Evelyn, coming to a halt between her and whatever that other thing is supposed to be. It turns out to be the slightly taller bee, with the honeycomb‐themed tablet still hovering beside it.

Bee: Why is there still a person left?! This magical artifact was supposed to bring everyone near them to safety! Gah, nothing ever works like it should! Hey, you! Get outta here and let me handle the rest!
Evelyn: ...Now not only the pile of candy talks, but this oversized bee, too?!
Bee(thought): I just said that, but... I don't hold the power to defeat it. The only thing I can do is try to keep it distracted from that woman. If only at least one of the legendary heroes were here...
Bee: Move it! Get away from here as long as you can!

A drop of sweat forms on the bee's head, showing openly it is out of its depth. The insect raises its front leg, desperately placing it on the mysterious plate. It lights up for a second, then emits a shining pulse that throws back the weird creature by a few meters. A bit puzzled, it gets back up to its "feet", growling angrily.

Candy spaghetti monster: Oh, one of the Queen Bee's lackeys, huh? That only tickled a little, you don't stand a chance against me, small fry.

Offended, the bee shoots back in its cute high voice.

Bee: Me, a small fry?! Small fry my stingy butt, I am Bee, The Chosen Scout!
Candy spaghetti monster: Whatever you say. I, for my part, am going to snatch away this cake now!

Catching Bee off-guard, the monster - faster than expected ‐ darts past it and rushes straight at Evelyn. However, she still doesn't move from the spot.

Candy spaghetti monster: Be obedient and hand over this piece of cake!
Evelyn: ...No.
Candy spaghetti monster: What?
Evelyn: I said no! Do you filthy monster get that?
Candy spaghetti monster: Me, filthy?! Know your place, woman!
Evelyn: Right back at you! This is not how to talk to an adult! And you ARE filthy. These candy spaghetti turn sticky whenever they get wet and gather all kinds of dirt! Once you had kids at home who ate them you know!

Surprised, Bee looks at her in absolute disbelief.

Bee(thought): Whoah, that old lady just talked back to it! ...Wait a second. This cake... it bears strong emotional power.
Candy spaghetti monster: Enough of that! Don't defy me!

Then Evelyn just snags her slice of cake and takes a big bite.

Evelyn: I spent an immense amount of time on saving every penny I possess, and I will certainly not just stand there and watch you take away what I bought with my hard-earned money.

She keeps wolfing it down until the pastry has completely disappeared inside her fully stuffed cheeks, making the green creature freak out while Evelyn delightfully gulps it down bit by bit.

Candy spaghetti monster: Gah! Not the cake, I wanted that!
Evelyn: That is too bad. I don't have one single clue what is going on here, but I will never let you have this precious symbol of our mutual love!

Just then the tablet hovering next to Bee begins to shine, and the yellow honeycomb cell in the middle flashes as it creates a beam of light, which goes straight to Evelyn's blood sugar testing device. Due to its brightness everyone quickly covers their eyes, rendering them unable to take action. After the light dissipates, the device has changed its appearance, now turned into a slightly heart-shaped form and covered in a golden yellow comb pattern. Confused by its different look, Evelyn picks it up.

Evelyn: What happened to my blood sugar meter? It changed tremendously!
Bee: ...I can't believe it. The legendary transformation device. She is one of the heroes?!

Excited, the striped insect rushes to Evelyn's side and stops in front of her.

Bee: You, Lady! What's your name?
Evelyn: Eh? M-my name is Evelyn.
Bee: Okay, now listen, Evelyn. Just do as I say, then we can send this fiend away!
Evelyn: But why would I trust you?
Bee: You don't have to trust me. Just hold that device close to you and speak the words that come from your heart.
Evelyn: ...And that vague procedure needed an extra explanation?! Well... I guess it does not hurt to try it out.

She takes the freshly redesigned trinket and holds it close to her chest, eyes closed. As they open again, she looks up with a determined expression while she takes a testing strip and inserts it. Afterwards, she presses the finger she pricked before to force some blood out of it and holds it to the sensor strip, which then absorbs a part of the blood.

Evelyn: Blood Sugar Rush, go!
