(The next morning, 7 am)
The alarm in Madisons house rang, waking her up. Madison was still very tired, reading Lucy's books all night was not a good idea. She wanted to just stay home and sleep, but she wanted to make a good impression with Lucy's husband. She quickly got dressed and stumbled out the door to head back to sugar rush
(Gummy's farm)
"I'll be surprised if she shows up at all" said Gummy
"What makes you say that dad?" asked Molly
"I don't know, i just have that feeling" said Gummy
"Here she comes" said Molly
Madison stumbled towards the entrance to the farm, looking very tired
"Hey, you ok? Did you get enough sleep last night?" asked Gummy
"I don't know" said Madison
"Here eat this, will instantly wake you up" said Gummy as he shoved some taffy in her mouth
Madison started to shake, her head turned into a smiling red balloon and she blasted off into the sky and back to the ground, instantly jolting her awake
"What was that?" asked Madison
"Airheads, perfect for situations like these. Welcome to my farm" said Gummy
Gummy and Molly showed her around the farm. Gummy talked to her about what he grew and how he was the number one supplier of gummy worms in the game. He grew and raised gummy worms, airheads, gushers, and could make delicious snacks out of all of the things he grew.
"Now my daughter will teach you everything you need to know if you're going to work for me. I have to go pick up my wifes kart from the castle. My wife is busy finding a new job for when she graduates her law school thing, and my son is still sleeping, they're both in the house, don't bother them, and don't bother my wife unless you really need her for something. If i come back to see you doing a good job, i'll hire you full time and, you can enjoy a piece of my wife's delicious gummy worm cake when the time comes." said Gummy
"I was told she was a terrible cook" said Madison
"She is" said both Molly and Gummy
"She is a terrible cook, but she does know how to bake, she can make the most delicious desserts you ever tasted. The gummy worms are almost ready to be harvested so she can make her gummy worm cake. I gotta go, see you in an hour" said Gummy before running off
"Bye dad" said Molly
"So, what do i do first?" asked Madison
"Guess you can treat the gummy worms. 2 more days til harvest" said Molly
"How do you know they're done?" asked Madison
"When they stop moving. Now i gotta go pick some gushers, you go spray the gummy worm fields, there's a can of their special food right over there, there's 2 cans, be sure to pick the can with the 1 on it, the other is full of pesticides that'll kill them. Put the can with the 1 on it in that machine over there and just drive over the field simple as that. If you need be i'll be in the gusher fields" said Molly before running off
Madison walked over to the gummy worm fields, a fence surrounded the fields so the gummy worms wouldn't escape and get hurt. The ground was full of gummy worms moving around and digging into the ground, they disgusted madison, but she needed a job so she went to work. She looked at the 2 cans, both had a number 1 on them, she looked really hard at the cans to determine which one was safe, both were different sizes. She took the biggest one figuring gummy worms needed a lot of food to grow, plus it was obviously worn and used, which means it must've been used to feed them a lot, so she took the can and placed it on the vehicle molly recommended.
"Time to get this over with" said Madison
Madison started the vehicle and drove over the gummy worms, spraying them with their special food. Madison thought this was easy, nothing too it really. She had sprayed half the field when she noticed something that was either really good or really bad. The gummy worms stopped moving, but their color was turning black. Scared, Madison jumped off the vehicle and went to find Molly
(Gusher fields)
Molly was picking gushers from the ground and bushes while singing to herself
"If you want to view paradise, simply look around and view it. Anything you want to, do it. Wanta change the world?" Molly sang to herself
"MOLLY"
She turned around to see Madison covered in gusher juice on her eyes and clothes
"Madison, what happened to you? Did you run through the gusher bushes?" asked Molly
"First off, you got a lovely singing voice you know that?" asked Madison
"Oh you heard that? Oh that's noth- what do you want? Did you finish already?" asked Molly
"I either did something really good or really bad. What does it mean when a gummy worm turns black?" asked Madison
"Oh no"
Molly dropped her basket of gushers, some splattering more juice onto Maddie. Molly ran to the field and looked at the worms, they were dead, half the worms were dead, her father wasn't gonna like this
"You killed them" said Molly
"But i used the can with the 1 on it" said Madison
Molly went to the vehicle Madison was using and looked at the can, she wiped off some paint on the can to reveal it said 10 on it
"Uh oh, this isn't good" said Molly
"Maybe your dad will realize someone painted the can?" asked Madison
"MY GUMMY WORMS! What did you do to my gummy worm crop?" asked Gummy as he ran onto the fields
"Mr Fluggerbutter, you're back so soon" said Madison
"Yes i am, you killed half my crop, i'm not gonna get that back. You just killed some of my profits" said Gummy starting to get angry
"I'm sorry, someone painted the cans and-
"You should've noticed if one was painted, i didn't become successful without noticing things like these"
"But dad it's not her fault, she's new, she'll get used to-
"Not now Molly. You, get off my farm, i don't even want to look at you right now" said Gummy
"But-
"Didn't you hear me? Get out, get the hell off my property" said Gummy
Gummy grabbed a weapon hidden on the vehicle and pointed it at Maddie
"Daddy, please" said Molly
"Stay out of this Molly. I'm not going to ask again" said Gummy angrily
With that, Madison ran off.
"You didn't have to threaten her daddy" said Molly angrily
"It's who i am" said Gummy
Lucy walked by with her son Chris
"Everything alright out here?" asked Lucy
"I don't want to talk about it Lucy" said Gummy as he walked away
Lucy looked at the field
"What happened to our gummy worms?" asked Lucy
"Don't ask" said Molly
Unknown to them, a video camera was filming them from behind the fence. The person filming them, Luke's friend Wakko from Game land. Next to him was a can of paint and a brush. He put them in his hat, laughed silently to himself and ran off without being seen.
"Luke's gonna love this footage" said Wakko
(Later, Kevin's house)
Luke was showing his dad the footage
"So she's a little rusty, so what?" asked Kevin
"She killed their gummy worms" said Luke
"It was an accident" said Kevin "She's not used to this kind of stuff yet"
"Why're you defending her?" asked Luke
"Why're you against her?" asked Kevin
"I don't like her, i think you're in love with her. You're trying to replace mom" said Luke angrily
"Ella's dead, she's not coming back. You wanted me to move on" said Kevin
"Not like this. Don't you love mom anymore?" asked Luke angrily
"Of course i love her, but she's gone now, she'd want me to be happy, she'd want me to find someone else" said Kevin
Luke angrily went to his room and slammed the door
