>Go get cereal




you classy man.

You get in your CAR, which you don't refer to by a ridiculous name, and you drive to the GROCERY STORE. It hasn't been taken over by terrorists or anything; that'd be ridiculous!



You head into the CEREAL AISLE. Most of these cereals are just pure sugar sculpted into various shapes. How incredibly unbusinesslike.



Ah, that's good. There's just one box left. Funny, seeing as this entire section of the shelf is just for DANG! cereal. Oh well, at least you got here in time. You'd hate for someone else to have shown up first.



Naturally.



You are confronted by a RATHER IRATE WIZARD. It seems he wanted the box you just took, and he suggests you hand it over. How are you going to get out of this mess now?

- - - - - - - - - - - - - - - - - - - -

> Dang!

> Offer him one of the many other cereal products available.

You ask if the wizard would rather have some AAUGH! cereal rather than the DANG! he seems very interested in. They're basically the same cereal, except that AAUGH! has nuts in it.



The WIZARD informs you that he really, really hates nuts.



Alright, it looks like this isn't going to go nearly as smoothly as you planned. Guess there's only one logical course of action left.

Account his ass.

- - - - - - - - - - - - - - - - - - - -

>BUSINESSTECH: Negotiate for some of his HP. He doesn't need all of it, does he?

You expend twenty BUSINESS POINTS to execute BUSINESSTECH: NEGOTIATE. If you're successful, you could deal a critical blow to your opponent's HP! Of course, it's a risky move, and doesn't usually work against intelligent foes.



As you suspected, the WIZARD is not intrigued by your offer. You'll have to take a different approach on this guy.



The wizard begins charging his staff with energy...



...and hits you with a FIREBALL. Damn, that one hurt. You're not sure how much more of this you can take. You'd better think of something, quickly!

- - - - - - - - - - - - - - - - - - - -

>Your suit is ruined! Oh noo.

Damn it! That was a new suit, too! You BUSINESSGAUGE drops by 15 points, doubling to a loss of 30 MAXIMUM BUSINESSPOINTS! The values adjust accordingly.

>ACTION: Shower the wizard with AAUGH! cereal, since you know he hates the nuts in it!

Hates nuts, does he? Well, maybe it's about time you...



...went nuts.

The wizard takes 10 points of ALLERGY DAMAGE. He would probably have taken more from your bad pun, but saying it out loud would probably send your BUSINESSGAUGE straight into the negative points.

Only 990 more HP to go!





The wizard hits you with a powerful LIGHTNING ATTACK for a whopping 112 damage! Worst of all, it only cost him 25 BLACKARTS POINTS from his cache of hundreds! This isn't looking good at all. You'd better think of something, quickly!

- - - - - - - - - - - - - - - - - - - -

> Call for help!

Alright, it's obvious that you won't be able to win this fight on your own. It's time to take the logical course of action and call for help.



Hello, you've reached the Irate Wizard Attack Hotline. We apologize for the inconvenience, but all representatives are currently occupied. Please hold.

>Wizard: Do something Wizard-like

Please continue to hold. A representative will be with you shortly.



Your call is very important to us. Please continue to hold.



Please continue to hold. A representative will be with you shortly.



"Hello, this is the Irate Wizard Attack Hotline, Kyle speaking. Can I help you?

...Hello?"

~Chapter One~

You awaken in a dark room. Wait a minute, how long were you out?! You might be late for work!

You also appear to be trapped behind bars of some sort. You feel very lightheaded.

- - - - - - - - - - - - - - - - - - - -

>Politely request an explanation. Angrily demanding to be released wouldn't be businesslike.

That's true. You've got to keep a level head, even though you're trapped in some kind of light-producing cage in a dark laboratory, with no recollection of how you got here. Maybe whoever may or may not be in this room will listen to diplomacy.

But, try as you might, you can't seem to utter a word! This is very strange. You guess you might as well make sure you're not paralyzed or something.

>Wave your hands in front of your face...IF YOU CAN.

You're not paralyzed, but... That is definitely not your hand. That isn't even a hand. You're not exactly sure what's going on here, but you decide you should probably take a glance at the rest of yourself.



You have a feeling you're going to be late for work.
