Bamboozle-Man and the Library of the Secret City

(We open Annie's Antique shop in Fiction City. Unlike the last time Bamboozle-Man was there, it had a few people in it this time. On the far side of the store was a clearly patched wall. One that had to have been made after Bubbles was released from his prison a month prior. There we also see the familiar trio of Bamboozle-Man, Lazy Jim, and Detective Chuck, all looking around the store in curiosity)

Chuck: Wow. I've been in here dozens of times before and I never could have guessed it was apart of an underground-

BM: Shhh! They call it the Secret City for a reason. Listen. Annie said she'll be here with Maddie in a bit, we just need to hold down the fort and make sure none of these customers accidentally-

Chuck: Unleash an interdimensional bunny rabbit that threatens to kill your friends?

BM: It was the one time!

Chuck: This Secret City better be worth it. I can't believe I agreed to not tell the feds about Maddie's whereabouts as long as she took us to see it. She's still technically an accomplice to Pagliacci's crime syndicate.

BM: The guy has like six hundred life sentences. What's her testimony gonna do, send him to even more prison?

LJ: *grunts*

BM: See, even he agrees with me!

Chuck: He's only saying that because Maddie made him brownies. Which are for all of us, by the way! Brownie hog.

LJ: *grunts angrily*

BM: That's a fight you're gonna lose, bud.

(Soon, Annie and Maddie came into the store, laughing with each other while remembering an adventure from their youth)

Annie: Hey, guys. How's the store?

Maddie: It's not on fire so that's a good sign.

Chuck: Please. Compared to what these two get up to, that'd be a blessing.

BM: Where were you guys? It can't take that long to get groceries.

Maddie: We gotta a little switched up on the directions.

BM: Yeah whatever. So are we ready? You get all the stuff you need for the abra kadabra?

Annie: Never heard it be called that before but yes. And pipe down, will you? We don't need the whole city knowing about this.

Chuck: We just helped a speedster stop an alien energy source from getting put in our sodas last week, I don't think anyone would be all that surprised.

LJ: *grunts*

Chuck: No I don't have any left.

Maddie: Why would he even want to drink that?

BM: He put "drink mysterious fluids more often" on his bucket list.

Annie: Let's get started. Ladies and gentleman, we're closing so please make your purchases now.

(The customers bought their stuff and filtered out accordingly, leaving the group alone. Maddie locked up while Annie began to put together the ritual that would allow them to see the Secret City)

Chuck: So how does all of this work anyway?

Annie: Once I get the ingredients together in the right amount and enchant them, we will paint an eye sigil on your heads.

BM: Oh can I use more of it to make myself look like the guys from Kiss?

Maddie: Not unless you want to see into different realities and go insane.
