Kara the NPC was standing in a green field, smiling. She held out her hand, "Jumanji is saved from peril once more. Thank you Princess Lightningale, Scimitar Blade, Viper Lazybones and everyone else for your swift arrival," she said, shaking their hands one by one.
The others shook her hand, each ready to be sent back to the real world. But a small part of them would miss the video game...
Before they went however, Rudy decided to open his mouth, "Aru, we love you and all.... But never again do I want to come here, kapish?"
The others nodded in agreement, groaning quietly.
"Yeah... we'll properly destroy Jumanji when we get back," Aru responded sheepishly.
"Yeah. Nobody keep any pieces. Please," Boo grumbled, swatting a fly.
With that, Jumanji faded away as the Museum took its place.
~~
To say the museum was a mess, was an understatement. There was a black bag in the corner, with piles of crushed stone, that didn't come from the Museum itself, but rather... the stone tiles from Boo and Sheela's little quest.
"Oops. I didn't think it would make a mess!" Sheela squirmed, eying the damage.
The pillar that held the motherboard stood strong, however. The others looked at it suspiciously.
"Is that the motherboard?" Rudy asked, pointing at it.
Boo nodded, "Indeed. We have to destroy that. Only then, our game will be properly destroyed."
Then, the others properly got a glimpse of Boo. Sheela giggled loudly at their reactions.
"I- What? I know you said your hair was green... But I still don't think I could've prepared myself for... this!" Rudy exclaimed, gesturing to him.
"GUCCI GLASSES?" Hira screamed in surprise.
"Wow.... you actually kinda look good in that, Boo! Love the Gucci by the way. How much was it?" Nikita asked, glancing at him with a skillful eye.
Boo rubbed his neck nervously, "Uh... they were... Zero dollars, because of an... unknown discount. By that, I mean the owners didn't know I bought them. Because I didn't. And... the store was closed... And I ... er.... Didn't leave the proper currency to pay for it?"
Sheela snorted, "Proper currency. Sure."
The others blinked.
"You mean you stole it?" Mini asked.
Aru's face broke into a grin, "I'd be so proud of you if you weren't a criminal right now."
Nikita's eyes bulged out of her head, "Mind getting me some?"
Sheela glanced at her sister, "NIKITA!"
"Woah...." Rudy said in awe.
Brynne and Hira stared at Boo like a fish out of water, who stomped his foot, "That's not fair! Sheela didn't either! And nobody saw us! The tiles interfere with technology, so the camera's didn't catch us! And I really needed to see, especially since Sheela needs them too now. Besides... It was either steal glasses or let Sheela fly with blurry eyesight."
Aiden narrowed his eyes at the boy, "Now that we're back home, you can use your spare glasses and return those."
Boo shifted, "Pretty sure those broke too. My contacts are goners..."
Aru grinned evilly, "No they didn't! I stole a pair from you just in case you break your spares. Mini taught me to be...useful with my talents. So, yeah. You have a spare pair of glasses."
