It had been about two weeks since Slushy and the others began their island-warming scheme, and business at Slushy's shop had been doing much better. Each day the heat experiments went to their spots in the underground cave and warmed up the island. As the days passed, more and more people showed up to the shop. The plan was working and helping to provide a steady income for everyone. "Looks like things are finally turning around, eh cousin?" Dupe said as he handed a snow cone to another customer. Slushy, who was tidying things up around the shop, looked at him with a smile "Yep, that cold weather fluke must have finally ended. All that heat we should've gotten must be hitting now". It wasn't that he didn't trust Dupe, Slushy had a great relationship with all his cousins, but he wanted to keep things low and didn't want anyone unnecessary to the plan to know about it. "Well, hopefully this heat wave continues for a good while." Dupe said, putting more money in the cash register "Good for business and its really good beach weather."

The day went on as usual and eventually it was time to close the shop. Slushy, Dupe, and the owner of the shop said their goodbyes and headed home. Except for Slushy who made his way to the underground caves entrance. As he got closer, he could hear someone shouting. As he turned the corner, he saw Heat and Melty off to the side of the entrance while Splody and Yang were being yelled at by someone. They were rather large, wore sunglasses and had obvious tan lines all over their body. Slushy immediately recognized him. It was the ice cream man! Although, Slushy was surprised to hear him yelling. He'd never heard him speak before and always assumed he was mute. He was ranting about heating up the island and losing his ice cream. He must've found out what they were doing. The ice cream man noticed Slushy out of the corner of his eye.

"Hey! You were the one who sold me my ice cream earlier! It melted in minutes thanks to these creatures. I don't know how they do it, but somehow, they've been making the island hotter". The ice cream man gestured to the heat experiments. Slushy and the rest were at a loss for words. Suddenly the ice cream man looked back at Slushy, realizing what their silence meant "Wait a minute, what are you doing here? Unless… you're all working together, aren't you?! Heating up the place just so we all go to your shop" the man said pointing at Slushy. Slushy, still shocked by the events, and the fact the ice cream man was yelling let alone speaking, remained silent. The ice cream man started storming off "Well, your little operation is over. I'm reporting you to the Kokaua Town police". After the ice cream man was out of sight, there was a good silence for close to a minute as they all tried to process what had happened. "Well," Melty said, finally breaking the silence, "Guess that's done and over with". "Yeah, sorry man" Heat said before everyone started walking home.

"Wait!" Slushy said causing everyone to turn around. "There is one thing we can do". Slushy pulled out his communicator, dialed a number, and put the device up to the side of his head. There was an audible call tone before a click could be heard. "Hey" Slushy said. "I need your help with something". The other experiments watched as Slushy paused before speaking again. "Yeah, me and some of the cousins were caught doing something that people will probably be mad about if word gets out". There was another pause. "Yeah, it was the ice cream man, he's heading to the police station now. Can you take care of him?". Another pause. "Great! Thanks man, I really appreciate it". Slushy hung up his communicator and turned to the heat experiments. "Well, we've got nothing to worry about fellas, someone's on it. Nobody's going to hear about our plan". The heat experiments look at each other in confusion before Splody spoke up. "Ok, but who did you call?". Slushy only smirked before heading home.

The ice cream man was still storming to the police station furious with what he had uncovered. "Stupid things… making me waste yet ANOTHER ice cream". Suddenly the ice cream man heard something that almost sounded like fluttering. He looked around but couldn't see anything. Blaming stupid mosquitos, he continued on his march. Off to the side and closer to the road, a figure stood leaning against a small beach umbrella, staring at the ice cream man. "Hey, what's got you so riled up?" they yelled out. The ice cream man looked around before seeing the small figure wearing sunglasses under the umbrella.

"I just saw these creatures making the island hotter for some money profit scheme!" the man explained. "Just going to report them now to the police. I'm not letting anyone ruin my vacation". The figure tipped their sunglasses "You don't say? Well, you know, you could always just move on and forget about it, don't let it ruin your vacation and waste your time". The ice cream man stopped and turned toward the figure "What?! No way! They're ruining the island for everyone! Who knows what impact they are having on nature. They need to be taken care of. Now I'm going to the police station and that's that".

The figure stepped out from under the umbrella and took of his sunglasses looking the ice cream man straight in the eyes "No… you aren't". The ice cream got a better look at the figure noticing they were a small, round creature with small wings on their back. The man looked into the figure's big black eyes and suddenly, before he could say anything else, there was a bright flash of red and he became disoriented. The figure put back on his sunglasses before flying out of sight.

The ice cream man stood there for a minute before shaking his head "What the? When did I get here?". The ice cream man looked around confused for a moment before shrugging and heading to his hotel. The figure from the beach watched the ice cream man walk away before pulling out his communicator and calling Slushy. "Hey Slushy, it's done. He's been taken care of. Shouldn't cause any more problems". Slushy's voice could be heard over the communicator. "Thanks, Amnesio. Things could've gotten messy without you". Amnesio smirked to himself "No problem. Although, the man mentioned a money scheme you and some of the heat experiments must be involved in. Care to count me in? I'd be glad to help in making sure your plan goes undisturbed".

Slushy debated it, they were making enough money from this they could include another cousin. "Sure thing buddy. Stop by my place tomorrow and I'll fill you in. Welcome to the team". "Thanks Slush, can't wait" Amnesio said before hanging up and flying home, looking forward to the next day.
