You stood next to Tandy as you looked at the two girls standing there. One of which was wearing dishwashing gloves, boots, a blanket as a cape, and a homemade mask.

Tandy: It says a lot that this isn't even in the top five weirdest things I've seen.

Gert: You think we look weird? What's with the slutty get-up, lady? You don't have any respect for yourself.

Y/N: Oh. You're that kind of person.

Tandy just created some daggers.

Tandy: I have plenty of respect for myself. And I also got plenty of these!

Tyrone: The one with the dinosaur is Gertrude Yorkes, yes?

Robbie: One of those brats who kidnapped that Molly girl.

Tandy: And, by the way, I like this outfit!

Tandy threw her daggers but the dinosaur moved to block them. Tandy's daggers seemed not to hurt it, causing some confusion.

Gert: Thanks for the cover, OL.

Molly: Is she okay?

Gert: Yeah. Just hungry.

The dinosaur charged forward and swung it's tail right into Tandy. She flew back, but you caught her. You help her to her knees as she tried to catch her breath.

Gert: Take it easy, Old Lace. She's a skinny little thing. We don't want her to break in two.

You clenched your fists as Tyrone flew up.

Tyrone: If you harm her, then you'll have to face the wrath of...

He suddenly found himself stuck. He looked back to see Molly holding his cloak.

Molly: Stop fighting! Just let our friends go from your ugly cape!

Tyrone tried ro get away, but he couldn't. How was she even holding onto it?

Molly: Come on. I don't want to tear your bed sheets!

Tyrone: This is not a sheet, little girl. It's a cloak. A gateway to to another realm permanently bonded to my being. Not even a God has the power too...

Molly suddenly gave one hard pull which caused the cloak to be ripped off of Tyrone. You and Robbie watched in shock as Tyrone fell to the ground, suddenly in normal clothes.

He was sweating. He was sacred.

Y/N: Ty?!

Tyrone looked at Molly as she held his cloak.

Tyrone: p-p-please. G-g-g-give it b-b-back.

Molly took a step back. A look of panic was on her face as Robbie powered down and Tandy got back to her feet.

Molly: I-I thought you were a monster. I didn't know you were a stutterer.

Tyrone: Y-Y-You reverted m-m-me b-b-back.

Molly walked over to him and placed a hand on his back.

Molly: It's alright. My mommy is a speech therapist. Maybe she can help you!

Gert: Bruiser, your parents are bad guys, remember?

Molly suddenly realized what she said and slowly lowered her head.
