"Damien, how do I play this?", Mimi asked as if she was learning to read a book.
"OK so you insert you quarter", Damien instructed using his machine "And once it's registered the coin you pull the lever". The pictures turned and turned they slowly churned to a halt land on an apple, an seven and yet another apple.
"Did you win anything?" Mimi asked
"Not this round", Damien sighed "OK, you try". Mimi inserted the coin and carefully pulled the lever down. The images on the screen spun around, they slowed down landing on another apple, a coin and a diamond.
"I didn't win anything did I?"
"No. But we'll keep trying".

"No, Solio. You pull then lever down".
"Alright, alright. No need to snap".
"JUST PULL THE LEVER DOWN".
"Whoa. Someone's peeved". Solio said trying to push Scar's buttons.
"Look Mister, you know Bonnie said not to attract any attention so don't make me put you over my lap" After Scar's last comment Solio pulled the lever down. The photos slowly came to a stop.
"Oh. Balls". Solio frowned.
"It's okay, pal. You can spend as much as you want, just don't go too crazy". Scar tried to sound empathetic towards Solio.
"You try". Solio told Scar in a little baby voice.
"Okay". Scar inserted his quarter and pulled the lever down. But no money came out. "We'll just have to keep trying".

"Bonnie, I'm not having any luck", Click told me.
"Don't worry, sweetie, it'll happen soon enough". I was warn out and my cash was running low. I decided this would be my last spin and then we would both round up the others and we would all go to bed. I grasped the lever tightly not taking my eyes off the icons. I pulled it down. The icons spun and spun and spun. The seemed to be slowing. I watched as the first column stopped, Seven. The second column also landed on a seven. The third one was no slower then it was at the start. Finally it started to slow. As it took its last spin.
Slowly, Slowly, Slowly.
Please a seven I begged.
SEVEN
"AHHHHH!!!" Click screamed with happiness. "Bonnie, Bonnie, You WON. WE'VE WON THE JACKPOT".
I heard gasps behind us. I turned realizing that all eyes were on us. One pair of eyes I discreetly remember from somewhere. The science labs. "Click. Grab the money quick"
"What why?"
"Click. One of them. One of the scientists. He's here". Next thing I knew I was trapped in a head lock.
"Nudge. Call the others. Quick". Things started to get blurry. I felt as if I was going to pass out. I saw Click panicking. Her arms were flapping around. She was screaming.
"Damien! Scar! Solio! Mimi!" She was scared out of her mind.
"PEACHES"
