Chapter 5: The BEEG News

Tari: P- Pregnant?!

Dr. Toadette: This right here is your Pregnancy test! And, I can confirm that you are pregnant... I'd say as much as 8 weeks.

SMG4: OMG...

Dr. Toadette: So yeah... um... Congratulations?

...

SMG4: T- Tari?

Tari: I- I don't know what to say!

SMG4: Tari... we're gonna be... parents!

Tari: So... is this why I was being sick, every morning?! And, gaining weight?!

SMG4: Looks like it.

Tari: T- This is... um... This is my... best dream coming true!

SMG4: Is it, actually?!

Tari: I never thought I would say this, but... SMG4?

SMG4: Yeah?

Tari: Will you be the father of my baby?

SMG4: Y- Yes!!! We're gonna be parents, Tari!!!

Tari: I LOVE YOU, SMG4!!!

*KISS*

SMG4: I'm gonna be a Dad!!!

Meanwhile...

Auri: You wanted to see me, sir?

Chief: You were supposed to give information about the Blue Toad, to the Fire & Rescue crew! But, no... you were somewhere else! Where were you?!

Auri: I spotted an Inkling that matches the description that one of my friends gave me! He then entered the van with 2 other Inklings!

Chief: Then, what happened?!

Auri: He drove off while I wanted a word with him... I didn't want them to get away, so I rushed to the Area car and did a Vehicle stop at the Industrial Park.

Chief: And, you did this all on your own... against 3 Inklings?!

Auri: Yeah... the Driver got out, and the other 2 got out... as well.

Chief: So, you were surrounded?!

Auri: Yes, sir. And, I think one of them was armed with a Knife.

Chief: I see.

...

Auri: So, am I in trouble or what?

Chief: No... I'm just giving you a warning! But, I just wanted to say... Good work for spotting a suspect that one of your witnesses ID'd.

Auri: Thank you, sir.

Chief: But, next time... I don't want you to ignore a Police request.

Auri: I was just trying to protect some friends of mine.

Chief: I know... but, just do everything by the book... next time.

Auri: Understood...

Chief: You can leave now.

What the Chief Inspector and Police Department didn't realise... Auri actually LIED to him and the whole Department... NONE of the Inklings were carrying a Knife.

LATER, THAT EVENING...

Luigi: Happy 36th Birthday to me, everyone!!!

SMG4: Happy Birthday, Luigi!

Mario: I'm gonna get drunk tonight!!!

Mario and Luigi went away.

SMG4: Wow... we're gonna be parents!

Tari: I know.

SMG4: What do you think our future kid will look like?

Tari: Um... it could have your eyes, my nose... and your moustache.

SMG4: But, what if the baby is a Girl?

Tari: Same thing... but without the moustache.

SMG4: This is gonna be the best chapter of my life.

Tari: You think so?

SMG4: Yep.

Tari: I think so, too.

SMG4: I can't wait to see our future kid.

SMG4 strokes Tari's stomach.

SMG4: I'm thinking of it, right now.

Tari: Me too.

SMG4: I love you, Tari.

Tari: I love you too, SMG4.

*KISS*

SMG4: Do you think the others will find, sooner or later?

Tari: Well... we did sort out a clue.

At the Castle...

SMG3: Hey guys, my Oven broke... can I borrow yours? I wanna warm up my Pie.

Melony: Go ahead.

SMG3: Um... why is there a Bun in the Oven?

Melony: God knows...

Mario: Can I have it?

SMG3: Well, it's your place... so, yeah?

SMG3 threw the Bun to Mario.

Mario: Yummy!

Meggy: Hmm...

Melony: You OK, Meggy?

Meggy: Something sounds familiar about a Bun in the Oven...

Auri arrived.

Auri: Hey, guys...

Meggy: Auri? Why the long face?

Auri: *sigh* Listen... I gotta get something off my chest...

Meggy: What's wrong, buddy?

Auri: Earlier today... I may have spotted the Inkling that you identified as the suspect...

Meggy: Did you?

Auri: Yeah... he had Green hair and all sorts...

Meggy: What happened?

Auri: He was with 2 other Inklings... I confronted the group and they were all... jumpy.

Mario: Did they sexually harass you?

*SMACK*

Mario: Ow...

Auri: The Green Inkling resisted arrest... he pinned me down to the floor and the other Inklings humiliated me, and then... they just drove off.

Meggy: Jesus...

Auri: I feel like I failed both of you, Meggy and Melony...

Meggy: *sigh* Auri... don't be beating yourself up, about that! At least, you tried.

Melony: I didn't realise I was getting sexually harassed, you know.

Auri: Look, it all happened too fast... and I couldn't do anything about it...

Meggy: Were they carrying any weapons? Like, a Gun or a Knife?

Auri: I didn't see any weapons... but, I did tell the whole Police Department that they had a Knife.

Meggy: Wait... what?

Auri: Um... there was no Knife... and, I might have told them that there was.

Meggy: Wait... you lied to the whole Department?!

Auri: Um... I might have done.

Melony: Why would you do that?!

SMG3: HEY... CAN YOU QUIET DOWN?!?!?! I'm watching my Pie getting warm!!!

...

Meggy: You lied... to your Boss, and the whole Department?! Why would you do that?!

Auri: Look, I panicked! Since, Mr. Monitor told me if they were armed... I panicked and said; Yes!!!

Mario: I've never seen a panicking Officer, before.

Auri: If they found out, I was lying... I feel like they're gonna call the Governor of the Mushroom Kingdom Police Department and he's gonna shove something up my ass! 

Mario: Who the hell is that?

Auri: The Governor is none other than... Commissioner M&M.

Mario: Isn't that the M&M when he used to be on SML?

Auri: Yeah... he got transferred due to SML's Lawsuit...

Mario: I see.

Auri started to panic.

Auri: *panting* Jesus... if they find out...

Meggy: Auri, don't panic! You'll just have to tell them that your words kinda... slipped out.

Auri: You think so?!

Melony: Just be positive to yourself, and just tell them the truth.

Auri: Well, the Governor does not like Lies... but, if I tell the Chief Inspector the truth... maybe, he won't tell on the Governor.

Meggy: Just try to do that.

Auri: *sigh* Screw it... I see what I can do...

SMG3: You know... I would really appreciate it, if you didn't talk very loud whilst watching my Pie getting warm!!!

Then...

Saiko: OMG!!! ARE YOU SERIOUS?!?!?!

Boopkins: YOU'RE HAVING A BABY?!?!?!

Meggy: Huh?!

Melony: Wait... did I hear the word; Baby?!

In the main hall...

Tari: Everyone... me and SMG4 are having a Baby!!!

Meggy: OMG... ARE YOU SERIOUS?!?!?!

SMG4: Hell yeah!!!

Mario: Bloody hell, SMG4... since when did you shag Tari?!

SMG4: Why do you want to know?

Mario: Um... I dunno...

...

Auri: Wow... Congrats, you two!

Luigi: Isn't that amazing?!

Melony: OMG, Tari!!!

*HUG*

Tari: Aww... thanks, Melony!

Meggy: OMG, TARI... CONGRATULATIONS!!!

Tari: Thanks, Meggy!!!

Meggy: THAT HAS JUST BRIGHTENED MY DAY!!!

Belle: Same here, Meggy!

SMG4: I saw SMG3 come in here, earlier... where is he?

Mario: He's probably eating his Pie, and watching TV in the Kitchen.

TV: We have an update on the Prisoner that has escaped Prison... we have received a Mug-shot of the Inmate, who is on the run!

The TV showed a Mug-shot.

SMG3: *wheezes* Looks likes he's either a Kid or a Squid... even though, he looks like he's in his 20's...

TV: If you have any information of this Man... please call the Police, immediately!

SMG3: *sigh* The News is boring...

TV: The Inmate's name is--

SMG3 switches the TV off.

SMG3: CONGRATS, SMG4!!!

SMG4: THANKS, SMG3!!!

SMG3: Mmm... this Pie is delicious.
