Chapter 71:

Halloween insanity

Spice of Life


As the weeks went by, Halloween arrived in no time flat. The restaurant ended up hosting a big Halloween bash.

"Well we sure got some scary customers. Especially that dark dragon guy- huh? Guess I was just seeing things," Rika thought as she gazed at the crowd.

Rika was naturally clad in a seductive devil costume to arouse Masaru. Everyone else was clad in various costumes. Mimi wore her old Danablu spy uniform, Waki wore a long white shirt dress though didn't bother to change her hair or wear a wig, Zuina dressed as a scarecrow, Benihime as a geisha ghost, Itsuki as a mummy, and Matcha as a punk rocker.

"Can't believe I did something so dumb," Matcha mumbled in embarrassment as Waki gawked at her spiked up hair.

"Trick or treat, gimme some crepes!" Madoka smiled as she arrived dressed like a witch.

Suddenly, two men in hats and overalls leaped next to Madoka.

"Marco and Leo? Not bad, so who are they?" Rika asked.

"Huh? They aren't with me. Guess-MMPH!"

The man dressed as Leo suddenly grabbed Madoka and quickly tied her up before leaping to stage with the man dressed as Marco. The man dressed as Marco then smiled maliciously and lifted up his hat.

"WAHOO! IT'S A ME! JESTER! BUWAHAHAHAHA!"

It was Jester. The other man tilted up his hat to reveal his mustachioed face. He really did look just like Leo from the super Marco bros supershow.

"Oh great, we got Warco and Waleo instead," Rika groaned.

"Now everyone! Allow me to introduce Vincenzo-er Leo, my younger brother from another mother!" Jester declared.

"Vincenzo!? He's a really strong underworld hitman," Waki whispered nervously to Rika.

"I've seen him a few times. Unlike the clown, he's a threat," Rika glared.

"[Hey brother, why are we publicly announcing ourselves?]" Vincenzo asked.

Since Vincenzo  spoke English and sounded exactly like Leo from the Super show, patrons quickly began to think the whole thing was an act.

"Wah! When's Warco a gonna get to Wah!?" a large fat man with a jagged beard, clad in a cap and overalls growled as he hopped on stage.

"Hon, Hon! Er- Wah Wah!" a tall skinny mustachioed man in overalls and a beret growled as he hopped on stage.

"Well what do you know, seems P. Lafleur escaped the banquet and he buddied up with his greedy half brother Stromboli. If I'm not mistaken, Stromboli's one of the 12 councilors with Illumous. Guess this means P.Lafleur ended up getting full membership to Illumous," Rika thought.

Rika's hypothesis was spot on. P. Lafleur had indeed snuck out of the banquet, though unbeknownst to everyone, he had been informed beforehand of the event's true purpose. After escaping, he was granted full Illumous membership status.

The four plumbers stood on stage as Jester took the mic.

"And now, time for a super special song marathon! Hit it!"

The band took the que and began playing the themesong from the super Marco bros game as Jester began rapping.

“YOYOI! We’re super Jester brothers though we’re from other mothers. We go around the world and make your head swirl. When you’re on the brink of death, we throw ya in the hearth. We stronger then the others now you’ll fear the super brothers. Uh! Da da da -“

“[No brother! That jingle is copyrighted!]” Vincenzo groaned.

"Who cares, Wah," Stromboli grumbled.

"I steal ze recipes, I steal ze jingles," Lafleaur scoffed.

“[Aiyaiyai we’re gonna get sued.]”

“YOYOI! Get ready to bleat cause you're gonna get beat. Get ready for a spicy meatball of a death. I’ll cover ya in pasta, bake ya in a pizza, hang ya up high while ya fear the super brothers and you scream! Da da da- "

"[Don’t get mad if those ninjas show up.]”

“I said feeeear da Jester brothers!"

“[I’m telling ya, they’re gonnna sue us.]"

Not with me around, Stromboli bragged as he began singing his verse

"Wah Wah Warco makes a number 2  and a numba 1wah. Wah- er Kooper did a dookie in a clogged drain pipe, er Wah. Wah Wah back to you Marco I forgot the lyrics."

"Now time for the final verse get ready to dance along, I'M THE JESTER!"

"Kick your ass again and again, Cmom an kidnap da Ginkawa princess."

"I'm so bad, the evilest bad, worship da Jester all of yall c'mon!"

"That's a right,  Just like me!"

As soon as Jester finished and did an awkward pose, an army of well dressed men in suits entered the restaurant.

"Hello, we are from Wintendo. We heard you stole our copyrighted jingle to use for nefarious purposes," the leader angrily smiled.

"Copyright!? Fuck zat! I do not care about your-UGH!"

Before LaFleur could finish, he was kneed in the gut by a guy in a suit wearing a racing helmet.

"YES!" the guy said as he struck a pose. Madoka then escaped and quickly got off the stage.

"Look! It's Captain Eagle!" a patron shouted.

Captain Eagle then faced the other three goons.

"C'mon! Put up your dukes!" he taunted.

Vincenzo lunged at Captain Eagle only to be met with an "EAGLE KICK!" to the face and was sent to the ground.

"Wah! I'mma gonna WAH!" Stromboli shouted as he leaped up and ground pounded the stage causing everything to shake. Jester then attempted to attack from above, however, Captain Eagle turned his back and did a short hop into the air.

"EAGLE PAUNCH!" Captain Eagle shouted as he suddenly turned around and unleashed a mighty fiery punch sending all four plumber goons flying out of the restaurant through the roof.

"[HYELLLLLP]!" Vincenzo cried.

"NON! I was cheated!" LaFleur wailed.

"Oh my WAH!" Stromboli cried.

"[FUCK YOU] Captain Eagle!" Jester cried as the four flew into the sky.

Captain Eagle and the men from Wintendo then quickly left. Before anyone could react, a large man dressed like a mummified Jackal appeared on the stage in a cloud of sand.

"Whoa! Act two!" a patron eagerly cheered.

Mimi immediately went pale upon recognizing the figure.

"J- Jackal? Oh, no. Everyone's in danger!" Mimi thought as she prepared for combat.

However, the dark dragon man clad in a dark black top hat, trench coat, and boots that Rika had seen earlier appeared next to Jackal on the stage.

Yes, Halloween was the perfect excuse to come out. Though I could do it any day I wanted.

"[Get fucked]!" I smirked as I flipped off Jackal with my middle finger, sending him blasting out of the hole in the ceiling and straight into the four flying stooges scattering them like billiard balls.

"[FUCK YOU] Muramasa Jouzu!" Jester cried as he flew away even faster than before.

I then took my leave, but not before spawning some of the restaurant's fruit smoothies in my hands and gazing at everyone's surprised faces as I vanished before them.

Rika blinked in shock as her eyes darted from the stage to the hole in the roof.

Suddenly, Gnorville appeared on the roof and waved down before using his alien technology to restore the roof. He then beamed down and walked into the restaurant to take a bow.

"BEST HALLOWEEN SHOW EVER!" the patrons cheered.

Rika and the staff nervously laughed as they had no idea what had just transpired.

Suddenly, a guy dressed as a pizza ghost charged for Madoka. However a chef with a large mustache suddenly appeared, grabbed the man, and suplexed him.

"Nice moves Masaru!" patrons called out.

"Um, I'm right here," Masaru nervously stated as he walked out of the kitchen wearing a chef's hat.

"You a piece of a shit! You'll a pay for a tryin to a destroy my pizzeria!" the chef fumed as he dragged the startled man in the pizza ghost costume away.

"Was that the real chef Pistachio?" Rika trembled.

She quickly decided to take charge before anymore hijinks occurred.

"And... That's the show! Hope you recorded it cause we'll probably never have another one as high tech as this. That "roof repair" and SFX was insanely expensive and phantasmal. But thanks for spending Halloween with us!" Rika nervously smiled.

                                                                              ...

The next morning, everything returned to normal.

"Heh, Halloween sure was something," a tired Mimi nervously chuckled.

"You're telling me. I think the place was haunted," a tired Rika nervously laughed.
