Create your own story with WhatIf!
Near: So you're our third member. Welcome to the cardboard palace.
Rudeus: Hello there. I'm Rudeus Greyrat. And the young man in white is Near. Nice to meet you.
Piccolo: *nods* Names Piccolo. I am a Namekian martial artist. {This is humiliating. I train warriors, not... whatever this is.}
Kittysamma: Oh, and Piccolo, you're all going to learn to work together. The Tournament is a team-based competition that requires both teamwork and cooperation.
Near: I already see the team dynamic. I am the planner, Rudeus is the magic caster, and Piccolo is the muscle. {At least Piccolo looks intelligent}
Rudeus: Um... So what do we do? Are we just waiting for the tournament to start, or are there jobs or tasks to do?
Piccolo: I already know this tournament is going to be a mockery of everything I've trained for.
Kittysamma: Dont you three worry. I already have a test for you three to build teamwork and learn to cooperate. Shopping for groceries! You only get 10,000 Yen.
Piccolo: ...
Near: 10,000 for only three people? I already am assuming the prices are going to be high and ridiculous.
Rudeus: Please, Piccolo-sensei! Teach us your ways! I don't want to get hit in the face again!
Piccolo: Fine. But if either of you calls me sensei again, I'll throw you against the wall myself.
Near: Noted. Piccolo-senpai.
Kittysamma: Team-building exercise: fetch dinner from the grocery store. Try not to drown in existential dread.
Piccolo: Namekians don't eat. We survive on water alone.
Near: Okay. So the first order is some grocery shopping. And if Piccolo only needs water, then that should save on yen.
Rudeus: Wait, water alone? How does that even work biologically? Don't you need proteins and—
Near: We need actual food. Last I checked, neither of us photosynthesizes.
Kittysamma: Less talking, more falling. Or would you rather go hungry?
Near: I don't think grocery stores have rows of furniture.
Kittysamma: Oops. Wrong hole. That's definitely the Infinite IKEA. Maybe you can find a new sofa. And dont they have food courts?
Piccolo: Rudeus, hold on, we're retrieving our teammate.
Rudeus: WHY ARE WE JUMPING INTO AN INFINITE FURNITURE STORE?!
Kittysamma: To save your friend Near, of course. Also, Rudeus, I gave you a bell to use when you're ready to return.
Near: Somehow, I am surprised things have already become a mess...
Piccolo: I can fly and scout ahead. Rudeus, use your magic so I can find you.
Rudeus: That should be easy. And there might be a food court? Please tell me there's a food court?
Near: Interesting. The store signs may be a way to find what we need... This juice box does not board well.
Piccolo: We're not finding the exit if we all walk. I will fly up and see if I see any food courts.
Rudeus: I'm going to die in flat-pack furniture hell because a cat pushed us down a hole.
Swedish Voice: Notice to all Customers, the store will be closing soon. Please exit the store.
