“Coffee, coffee, where’s the coffee?” Wally looked through everything. “If I was the coffee, where would I be?” Then, Kuki’s scream filled the air. It startled Wally and he fell onto the table. Some plates were moved and the coffee maker was now visible. Wally forgot about the coffee and took off for the trono room.
“WHERE IS SHE? WHERE IS THE DESENDANT OF SOSUKE?” The Happy Man looked under carpets and even under Kacey. Kuki hid behind Hades throne, and Hades acted like nothing was happening. Wally entered the room running, and he ran into the wall. When he got up, he went behind the throne.
“KUKI!” He said. Kuki grabbed his arm and pulled him down before the Happy Man could see them. Wally reached for her hand.
“What are you doing?” Kuki whispered.
“I’m gonna go help the others.” Wally said. “Stay hidden.” He got on his knees. But then Megan was thrown across the room. Everyone got quiet while Megan whimpered in pain from hitting the column.
“WHERE IS SHE?!”
“Wally, I have to reveal myself to help the others.” Kuki said.
“I’ve got an idea…” Wally said. He pulled something out of his backpack. It was the outfit he wore at Numbuh 86’s slumber party. He put it on.
“What are you doing?” Kuki whispered.
“I’m disguising myself as a girl. I need you to put your scent on me so he’ll think I’m you.” Wally said.
“NO! If anyone’s going out there, it’s me.” Kuki said. Wally gave her a sad look.
“I’m going, and that’s final. Now rub against me or lick me or halik me! ANYTHING TO GET YOUR SCENT ON ME!” Wally said. He froze realizing he sinabi ‘kiss’.
“Fine, but as long as you come back.” Kuki said. She was on the edge of tears. Then, there was a scream when the Happy Man lifted up Kacey. Kacey realized something. They were all in Hell. And that meant her kutsilyo would work. Kacey flipped her pocket kutsilyo open and jabbed it in the Happy Man’s arm. Blood poured from his arm. He dropped Kacey and went ballistic.
“NOW!” Wally yelled. Kuki didn’t move. The Happy Man had noticed the two, and now they were in trouble. The Happy Man reached for Kuki. Wally pushed her out of the way. The Happy Man grabbed the bottle of Dead-Away. He stared at it. Then, he accidentally sprayed himself. While the Happy Man was gasping for air, Kacey motioned for Hoagie to see if Megan was OK. He bent down to her side. Megan was alive, and awake, but blood was pouring from her side.
“WALLY, GIMME YOUR SHIRT!” Hoagie yelled. Wally shrugged and tossed his sando over to Hoagie. Hoagie mopped up the blood and sighed.
Meanwhile, Kacey, Kiki, and Abby were taking action.
“Can’t you use your powers on him or something?” Abby asked Hades. Hades sighed.
“I’ve got a confession to make. I’m actually quite afraid of the Happy Man.” Kacey facepalmed.
“You’ve GOT to be kidding me.”
“Guys, look!” Kiki pointed to Kuki and Wally. “Probably giving each other good-bye kisses before Wally leaves forever.”
THWACK!
Abby had smacked Kiki with her hat.
“CUT IT OUT!” Kacey said. “We’ve got to distract him long enough for us to get everyone out.” The girls nodded.
“KUKI! WALLY! GET OVER HERE!” Kiki yelled. Wally grabbed Kuki’s hand and rushed over.
“What?” Wally asked.
“We’re creating our grand escape. Now go distract the Happy Man.” Kacey said. “And put a sando on.” Kacey pulled one of her sleep shirts out of her backpack and handed it to Wally. Kacey pulled something out of her pocket.
It was a whistle tied onto a bracelet.
Kacey blew the whistle for an entire minute. The Happy Man covered his ears. But no one else did.
"What's the whistle do?" Kiki asked. Kacey smiled.
"Only the dead can hear it." She answered. Then, Hoagie screamed.
"Oh, what now?" Abby asked.
"GUYS!" Hoagie yelled. "I THINK MEGAN Nawawala CONSCIOUSNESS!"
"You think she Nawawala consciousness?" Kacey asked. Hoagie blushed.
"YOU TELL ME!" He yelled. Kacey walked over and noticed that all the blood was gone.
"What the-?"
"AHHHHH!!!!!!!"
"KUKI!!!!"
"Oh, this just keeps getting better and better." Kiki said. She and Kacey rushed over to where Kuki and Wally were. Kuki was in the hands of the Happy Man, and Wally was behind him attacking. Wally jabbed a small sword he found on the ground into the Happy Man's back.
The Happy Man turned into dust. Kuki fell to the ground, and whimpered. Wally bent down to help her, and Megan finally got up. Everyone was quiet.
"Thanks, Doug." Kacey said. She went over to Hades and patted him on the back.
"No problem." Hades answered and took off his wig.
"UNLCE DOUG?" Wally yelled. Doug laughed.
"Yup. Your cousin here wanted me to help you get over your fear of clowns. We set this whole thing up. Including the creepy gondolier." Doug said.
Doug was Kacey and Wally's uncle.
"Wally, you were TOO scared of clowns." Kuki said.
"Yeah, so we set up a dummy to turn to dust when stabbed with a sword." Megan said. She removed her dyaket which was full of ketchup packets that were all smashed. It turned out that they were in a Hollywood studio and the whole thing was a set.
"You KILLED a clown. Now tell me, does this image scare you?" Kiki asked. She pulled a picture out of her pocket. It was a picture of a creepy clown. Wally jumped.
"Little bit."
"See? You didn't hide behind Kuki this time." Kacey said. Wally's eyes widened.
"I guess I didn't!"
"Now let's get tahanan before we get caught using this set." Megan said.
