Part Two

Toadsworth read out the names.

"Dubba McDerman"

A cheer came from a small part of the crowd as a fat man walked up on stage.

"Hoggsworth Pinkleton"

Several cheers... and grunts as a pig walk- crawled up on the stage.

"Charlie Taylor"

More cheering as a small kind looking man walked up looking nervous.

"Brooke Saunders"

BIG cheering this time. A pretty toadette with blonde hair and pink spots stepped up confidently and smiled to the crowd. There was some hollering and whistling. More names came, each one with suspense, until the final three for the citizens. King Toadsworth hesitated and looked at the ticket with shock for about five seconds then snapped out of it and looked back out at the audience.

"Q-Qu-Queen Sarah Savie, of the Sugar Kingdom"

The audience's constant wispering stopped immediately. A hush fell over the crowd. Queen Sarah, although the queen of the Sugar Kingdom, was technically eligible since she was staying with her uncle Toadsworth for the summer. A smart looking pretty woman with wavy mahogany colored hair and a dress like peach's but with light blue-green and lighter blue instead of pink and light pink. She had a purple stone thing on her dress as well as purple earrings and the jewels on her crown were purple and green. It looked like someone used the program Paint on Peach and just switched some colors around. She looked shocked, but pleased. Looks like her sister would be getting the Sugar Kingdom, not her. She'd be partying in the sky. Toadsworth, bewildered, looked at the next ticket.

"Randy Milton"

A young man who looked to be about 19 walked up looking calm for being one of 10 people to live on a floating city. He had brown hair and dark green eyes. a dark green long sleeve shirt, black cargo pants, a black cap and black shoes. He had a all-knowing kind of evil smile on his face. Toadsworth continued. He looked with shock at the next ticket. He looked back at Randy Milton's ticket, then back at the final ticket.

"Harv-Harvey... Milton"

The crowd broke out in loud whispers. A nervous looking boy who looked about 16 walked on stage. He as well had black cargo pants and black shoes, but his shirt was navy blue and sunglasses on top of his head because it was dark and he didn't need them, and he didn't have a hat. He looked exactly like a younger Randy Milton, except he had blue eyes and a happier face than his dark relative. He stood next to Randy.

Toadsworth ignored the loud crowd, obviously angry that two seemingly brothers had BOTH won. "All winners are free to bring any relative living with them," he said loudly. The crowd wouldn't get any quieter. They were either yelling at Toadsworth, Randy and Harvey Milton, or each other. Toadsworth gave up trying and said, "All winners are to get all their possessions in the trucks that I will be sending out. Three days from now, A royal limousine will come to pick up the lucky winners & all people living with them."

The king was getting angry. "QUUIEEEEEEEETT!" he yelled. The crowd immediately quieted. "And now," he continued in a calmer voice, "To present the businesses." He looked at his podium at the three face-down final tickets, all businesses.

"Troy's Juice Bar."

Cheering.

"The Glitz Pit"

MUCH cheering. This was well-known throughout the Mushroom Kingdom as one of the best ideas for a new, tourist attracting city. It was a fighting tournament where experienced fighters can register and try to win the Champion's Belt. Everyone in the entire Kingdom was happy about this. It took some time for the cheering to die down. Toadsworth hadn't even been paying attention. He was staring at the final ticket, looking from the Miltons back to the ticket.

"M-- Milton's Item Shoppe"

The crowd had had enough of the Miltons by now. They were in riot. The Miltons had quickly fled the scene, the other eight contestants too happy to join the riot, left with their families. Toadsworth gave up and took a car back to the castle, letting security deal with the crowd. He sighed. It was going to be a loooooong three days until the winners move into Glitzville.
