“I have a long story to tell, yes?” said Yearyo. “And I may not have very long to tell it.”

  “Then tell it, like, really fast,” said Hoofa.

  “Well, just yesterday, I was sitting at my desk in the Bearship when all of a sudden I got a call. Who was it from? Good question. It was DeBear’s robot clone. Wasn’t he captured by the bears? Yes, but he escaped. Or at least that’s what I thought at first. He came in asking where y’all were. I said I didn’t know, because I didn’t know, and then he just straight up attacked me. I managed to escape him and find an escape pod on the ship. He went on a murderous rampage and I think he took control of the ship!”

  “What??” exclaimed the shocked Mushpuff. “Why would DeBear do this??”

  “I don’t know!” yelled Yearyo. “I think the cows must have hacked him or something, hmmm? So then I didn’t know what to do, so what I did was I came to the Spacebar. I was going to try to find allies or something, yes, but then I saw you guys.”

  “What are we going to do about this, Yo?” asked Bird, unknowingly referring to Yearyo by his nickname.

  “We have two options,” continued Yearyo after taking a bearth of air. No, I didn’t misspell that, it was a bear pun. “We could attempt to fight against DeBear II. Which is a--”

  “That’s a great idea!” said Plagiarize.

  “As I was about to say, it is a terrible idea,” said Yearyo. “He’s even better at fighting when he’s a robot. We only have one other option.”

  “And what option is that?” asked Klumpkrump.

  “Well, that requires yet another story,” explained Yearyo. “But I really think we should get out of here, yes? DeBear may have tracked my escape pod. They all have tracking devices installed, you see.”

  “Then let’s go!” said Klumpkrump, jumping up out of her chair. Mushpuff, Plagiarize, Bird, Hoofa, Qaeron, Yearyo, and Snorter did the same, and they were out of there in no time, having eaten no food at all.

  They all ran out the door of the Spacebar, back into the garage, and made their way to their ship. Everyone boarded it and soon enough they were off.

  Approximately 5 minutes later, the Bearship itself was parked outside the Spacebar. It was far too large to fit in the garage (in fact, it was at least 5 times larger than the entire Spacebar + garage combo). Everyone inside the restaurant had about 3 seconds to even comprehend what was happening before the entire building was blown to smithereens.
