Chapter 3: M-I-C-K-E-Y-M-O-U-S-E
"Okay, is everyone ready for the big day today?" Minnie asked.
"A-hyuck! You bet!" Goofy said.
"I can't believe today is Mickey's birthday!" Daisy said.
"It's gonna be great!" Donald said.
"All right, now all we need is for the cake to be put in place." Minnie said before she opened the box and saw that the cake was gone.
"OH, NO! THE CAKE'S GONE!" Minnie said.
"Who could have taken it?" Goofy asked.
"Gus was the one who baked it, and even he wouldn't have eaten it, knowing what it was for." Donald said.
"That leaves one suspect. I'll bet Mortimer took it." Minnie said before she marched out onto the stage.
"Mortimer Mouse!" Minnie shouted.
"Right here, sweet Minnie!" Mortimer said.
"Save your flirting! What have you done with Mickey's cake?!" Minnie asked.
Mortimer looked confused, "Cake? What cake?" he asked before Donald jumped and grabbed his collar.
"Save it! We know you took it!" Donald said.
Mortimer shook his head, "I don't have the cake, honest!" he said.
"Fork over the cake or else!" Donald said before Daisy pulled him back.
"Hold it, Donald! You say you're innocent?" Daisy asked.
"Yeah! Sure, I'm not a fan of Mickey, but even I wouldn't sabotage his birthday!" Mortimer said.
"Well, if you didn't take it, who did?" Goofy asked.
"Say, maybe we can figure out who took it through security." Horace said.
Everyone went to the security room and looked at the footage from an hour ago, which is when they saw someone in a black cloak walk into the kitchen and swipe the cake.
"There! It looks like the Phantom Blot was the thief!" Daisy said.
They then saw the current footage, which showed the Blot heading to the exit.
"Initiate lockdown!" Clarabelle said. The club sealed all its doors and windows as the Disney, Pixar, Marvel, and Star Wars characters cornered the Blot.
"Stop!" Honey Lemon said.
"You are completely surrounded!" Minnie said.
"Give up and surrender!" Ms. Marvel said.
The Blot looked nervous, backing up before Elastigirl tripped him with her foot, causing him to fall over and the cake to go flying, which the Jedi caught with the Force.
Everyone sighed in relief before looking at the Blot, whose mask had fallen off. They gasped at seeing it was actually…
"Pete!" the Mickey Mouse Gang said.
"Darn! I almost had that party of yours ruined!" Pete said.
"Well, now it's time for payback." Minnie said before she beat Pete up, kicking him out the unsealed door and sending him flying.
"Now, should we finish setting up the party?" Minnie asked.
Later, Mickey came into the club and saw no one was there.
"Well, that's odd. I thought there was supposed to be a special show tonight." Mickey said.
Suddenly, the lights went off before the spotlights focused on Mickey and the tables to a beat.
Several characters then popped out while saying each of the following letter.

M-I-C-K-E-Y M-O-U-S-E!
Now, who's that dancin' down the street?
Kickin' up fun with happy feet
There's no mistakin' that grace and style
Two big ears and a magic smile
Hey Mickey!
It sure is no surprise
Hey Mickey!
You prove that laughter comes in any ol' size!
Well, it started out just ink and pen
A best-made plan of mice and men
They splashed some color on the scene
Made a golden star for the silver screen
Hey Mickey!
It sure is no surprise
Hey Mickey!
You prove that laughter comes in any ol' size!
M-I-C-K-E-Y!
"HAPPY BIRTHDAY, MICKEY!" everyone shouted as gifts fell on the stage and confetti fell from the ceiling.
Mickey smiled widely, "Aw, shucks, you all had this party for me?" Mickey asked before Minnie and the others came on stage.
"Of course!" Minnie said.
"Why not celebrate your big day with a surprise party?" Daisy asked.
"A-hyuck, sure did!" Goofy said.
"Pretty great, huh?" Donald asked.
"Sure is. Thank you, everyone." Mickey said.
After a bout of food and party games, Minnie brought the cake out.
Happy Birthday To You!
Happy Birthday To You!
Happy Birthday, Dear Mickey!
Happy Birthday To You!
Mickey then blew out the candles, to the cheer of his friends and audience.
