"Tails, scrub that spot by the Omega table a little harder," commanded the Chess Master!

"Okay, Boss," said Tails.

While walking to the spot, Tails slipped on the wet floor and fell right on Omega's emergency backup switch.

"I have awakened," said Omega. "I could really go for some Annihilate, Kill, Destroy, right now."

"Aw, I've lost my tourist attraction table," said the Chess Master!

Some female customers came in. "I don't see that famous table in here, but look at that hunk there!" she pointed to Omega.

"I am E-123 Omega, and I.."

"Girls, did you hear his voice?! It's so manly. Quick, we have to alert the women empowerment groups of this new bachelor," they ran out.

"Looks like you have fans," said the Chess Master! "How about you not destroy my restaurant, and instead, work here so we can keep getting a lot of customers?"

"Is that an organic-lifeform attempt at humor? You left me deactivated, and now you want me to work for you? I'm still trying to destroy Dr. Eggman for doing that one."

("He really holds a grudge,") thought the Chess Master!

Omega powered up for a blast.

"Wait!" screamed the Chess Master! "I can get that rabbit meat you need to charge up your battery now. Just don't destroy the place."

Omega stopped charging, "Okay, but this is your last chance."

The Chess Master looked at Tails and whispered, "Hey, go call your friend, Cream, over before he gets angry again."

"I'm not going to call Cream over so she can get eaten by a robot!" screamed Tails.

Omega powered up again.

"Even if you weren't going to get her, you could have just whispered it into my ear and not alerted the killer robot!" screamed the Chess Master!

-Across the street at the Communist Pizza Restaurant-

"There's just too much capitalism in this city," moaned the Communist Pizza.

"Cheer up, Dad," said the Communist Kid. "I'm sure things will get better soon."

"They won't get better as long as that Chess Master's pizza restaurant is still in business." The Communist Pizza looked out the window, "Curse him for having the better ingredients to make a better pizza."

"We just got a call from Papa John's saying they're suing you for copyright infringement, Daddy."

"Darn."

"We got a phone call from a TV show saying they used 'darn' first. You're being sued again, Daddy."

"This is all the fault of that accursed Pizza Bucket! I wish it would blow up."

-Boom-

"It just did, Daddy."

-Back across the street-

"It was nice doing business with you," Omega said, then left.

"My successful business is gone..." said the Chess Master! with sadness.

The Communist Pizza ran across the street, "Finally! With your business gone, mine will pick up momentum and flourish, and my competition won't survive. Long Live Communism!"

"What?" said Tails. "Communism would be having everyone getting paid the same amount. One business wouldn't flourish over another. Having one business flourish more than others is a capitalist thing."

The Communist Pizza's face literally broke and underneath it came a new face.

"You have opened my eyes, young fox. From this day forward, I will be the Capitalist Slice!"

("What is with all these people and their the's and exclamation marks in their names?") thought Tails.

"I think I'll just go get a job at Walgreens," said the Chess Master!
