Vinny jumpped and cheered. He had just won against Wally and Starlight in Super Smash Brothers Meelee. (By using Young Link v.s. Mr. Game and Watch v.s. Mewtwo, in order of person listed in the previous sentence.) Marie looked to the power on her Game Boy Advance and noticed that it was low. She saved the game and turned it off. Irwin had been standing around and singing the alphabet backwards for the past few minutes. Marie, noticing that Vinny was cheering, began to cheer also.

"Yay!" Marie cheered, hugging Vinny as she did so. She paused for a minute. "Wait... What are we cheering for?". She looked to everyone else who in turn stared back at her as if she was a maniac.

Just then, the door opened very dramatically. The lights suddenly went dark and a mysterious fog enveloped the room. And out of the darkness (which Marie has a fear of) came... Tails?

"Hey, guys!" Tails greeted, the lights instantly returning to normal and the fog randomly leaving. "Like the fog and light effects?"

Everyone stared, a bit freaked out by the lights going dark. Marie finally let go of Vinny (due to her fear of dark rooms, she nearly squeezed the life out of him) and ran to hug Tails.

"Hi there, Tails!" the hedgecat greeted hyperly. "Thanks for getting here so quickly! You're the bestest (yes, it's bestest when she says it) special assistant ever! I'm gonna go make you some cupcakes!". And with that, Marie ran to... some place nearby with an oven and cupcake ingrediants.

Tails and the others paused for a moment, then shrugged it off. "So... I'm assuming that you're Marie's 'special assistant'?" Starlight questioned.

"Well... Actually... Her special assistant is Metal Knuckles, but he didn't feel like comming." Tails explained. "Something about Marie being absolutely insane... I dunno. So, what do you need me to do?"

Starlight smiled mischievously. "We need pixi stix." she 'explained'. "We need lots and lots of pixi stix. We must drown in the pixi stix!"

Wally seemed to think for a second and then got hearts in his eyes. "Bring Amy here..." he droned, obviously daydreaming about the pink hedgehog.

Vinny suddenly had one of those portable mini fans. He had it going as fast as it would go. "I need... A colder... costume... Now!" he panted.

Tails was confused (and checking his pockets for money to buy Starlight's pixi stix). Irwin then took it upon himself to step up. "The Metal Harbor set is supposed to be Wacky Workbench from Sonic CD." he explained. "We need your help with the set change."

Tails nodded and went to work on the set. Everyone else just stood there. Midnight the chao began to play the flute out of boredom. (It's so cute to watch chao do that! Although, it looks more like a recorder than a flute.) Everyone, exept for the working Tails of cource, watched the small creature, amazed by it's awesome flute playing skills. Starlight smiled, proud of her chao.Wally and Irwin sat down and watched the chao, obviously entertained by it's flute. And Vinny still had his fan on in a desperate attempt to cool off.

Tails was tearing down the Metal Harbor set with an, "I don't get paid enough", expression on his face. How he was somehow able to tear down a set made mostly from water, we may never know. He looked at a very detailed layout of Wacky Workbench and began to construct it while everyone else still concentrated on the chao (or the fan).

"If you use a cheat device called Action Replay, you can get official character chao." Irwin randomly stated. "Like a Tails chao, or a Knuckles chao, or an Amy chao..."

Wally's ears immediatly pricked up. "Hunh? Amy?" he asked. Irwin nodded. "... I need Action Replay..."

"Is Action Replay cold?" Vinny asked. "Like snow? Or Antarctica? Or Pluto?"

Irwin stared at the ground for a moment, apparently in deep thought. After a minute or two, he looked back to Vinny. "Well, probably. Maybe not Pluto, though." the penguin explained. "Why do you ask?"

Tails then walked up to everybody. His set building skills were unmatched. He had built the entire set for Wacky Workbench in under ten minutes. "Hey guys, I'm done." the fox explained. He then looked to Vinny who seemed as though he would pass out. "Are you okay?"

Suddenly, Vinny's costume was engulfed in flames. Vinny screamed and ran around the room like a maniac, hoping that the fire would just randomly leave. Tails, Starlight, Irwin, and Wally ran to get fire extinguishers to put the fire out. Right after they left the room, Marie came back with a plate of cupcakes. She paused, staring at Vinny.

"Vinny... there's no easy way to say this... but... you're on fire..." Marie explained, pointing out the (painfully) obvious. She grabbed a very conveniently placed bucket of water and doused the flames. Vinny stopped running around.

"Marie... You saved my life!" Vinny exclaimed as he hugged the hedgecat. "Thank you!"

Marie hugged Vinny back (being like me, a girl that likes hugs) and smiled. "You're welcome! Hey, do you know where everyone else went?" she questioned.

Just then, everyone else came back with their fire extinguishers and then stared.

"Well, that was pointless..." Tails muttered as he set his down. "So, will you be needing anything else, Marie?"

"Yeah. Could you stay here and make sure that everything else runs smoothly?" Starlight asked. "That way, we'll have the right sets and there'll be less... spontaneous fire."

Tails nodded in agreement. "Deal."

And so, everyone got prepared to reenact Wacky Workbench while Midnight still played the flute.
