Once I step outside, I pop out my wings and kick off the ground. I rocket into the air and hover, taking in the view. Where should I go first? I look down and see an arcade. I don't have any money. I look around and see the large daunting skyscraper. I look down and see a sign saying 'Empire Porky.' How high DOES this thing go up? I ask myself as I rocket farther up. I break through the layer of clouds to see it still going. This is ridiculous. I swoop lower and put my wings back in. I survey my surroundings as I freefall. Right when I am a mile above the city, I take them out again to glide in front of the Empire Porky Building. Right when my feet touch the ground I check the time. 4:40. The automatic doors welcome me as I approach. I step in and go up to the front desk, where a man is sitting.
"Excuse me, do you know where I can find King P?" I ask the man behind the desk.
"He is on the 100th floor." he replies, pointing to an elevator. I go towards the elevator and click the 'up' button. The elevator dings and I step inside. The elevator is really nice, and it looks like it can fit up to thirty people. The whole back wall is glass and you can see the bustling city. A small, shabby pink Pigmask is inside and he looks at me curiously. I ignore him and click the button that says 100th floor. I hear him walk behind me.
"Hey, aren't you the new Commander? My friend told me about a guy with orange hair and an arm cannon. Is that you?" asks the Pigmask. I turn around.
"Yes." I say. He jumps and salutes.
"S-sorry sir!" He says.
"Relax." I tell him. He loosens up. The elevator stops. I look at the monitor. 'Welcome to Floor 15, Burger Shop.'
"It's my stop! Bye!" He says, running out. I chuckle. Everyone is so nervous around me! I didn't even do anything! The elevator stops again. What now? 'Welcome to Floor 29, Disco. Oh god. A bunch of Pigmasks flood in and I am crammed in the back. Dang it. The elevator stops and some get off. There is someone blocking the monitor, so I have no clue what floor I'm on. The elevator stops one more. All the Pigmasks leave on this stop. I look on the monitor and see 'Floor 73, Pigmask Suites.' The elevator starts moving again. I hum the march theme I heard in the backstage room. The elevator doors open. I look at the monitor. 'Floor 100, King's Quarters' I step out of the elevator and into a room with a door. I enter the door and am greeted by a huge robotic pig. It steps aside to let me in the door it's guarding. I open the door and inside is a really long hallway. I sigh. He really wants me to get exercise. I finally reach the end of the hallway to see a boat with a model house on the back. I sit down in the boat and look at all the things set up on display. Cheery music begins to play as the boat starts moving. Once the boat stops at the end, I get off and go into the next door. There is ANOTHER DOOR. I groan and go through.
