Moxxie can only say this.
Greed looks no different from Pride.
All right maybe going overboard with the thinking. There were differences besides the color of the sky and no sinners.
You got to the area they are walking through along with the drive this morning to get here.
Then there was Loo Loo Land with the amusement park that was centered in a different part of Greed City. Away from all the industrial stuff.
They started to go farther out to the city area. Business, towers, casinos, entertainment business for stars and hotels. Banks. A lot of banks of different kinds. Could almost tell where the rich lives who have it very good. Then got the schmucks who are working their asses off. Or doing a life of crime.
Let loose a small hum as he looks at the map. That way could work.
The walk took a while but didn't care. It passed the time. Plus, didn't want to know want to know what the taxi cabs were like here. Probably the same as Pride, just extra pricey.
Moxxie walks around the city. Now and then stopping when he sees something in a window of a closed store. Then they continued their walk. It's when he got closer to an area to get a shortcut that he could hear a lot of honking. Turn a corner to stare. Then lift their phone back up.
One of the popular centers.
Popular going overboard as there were lots of cars everywhere in this parking lot. Citizens going inside the place with excitement, grins and even chants about 'Friday'? The mall itself was really big and looked like it was two buildings that were merged together. But the center was very short like an entrance area to rest in.
A small shrug ready to just go past by the place. Until he looks back at their phone.
Son of a rat.
Look straight back out at the shopping mall. Then back on the phone that decided to ding about a notification. The great Green Friday deals, event time, and to bring your wallets to the TOY ZONE!
Well, the number of adults makes sense.
Let out a sigh as they bring their hood up as they start to walk to the building.
At least going inside wasn't too horrible. They see a fountain with lots of restaurants and cafes that seem to be closed. Besides two coffee shops. All the residents seem to have swarmed to a staircase. Right now, it is very blocked off for anyone to go up the second floor. Look like magic of sorts to resemble a gate. Even the second floor has a gate. The TOY ZONE was on the second floor. Bight for everyone to see as you enter the mall, then go up the many steps to reach the destinations.
Just turn to the left to find one of those mall maps. Very easy. Study it while ignoring the crowd in the back.
Okay they were in building A that had this TOY ZONE, a lot of food courts, and even an entertainment park area inside. Everything is usually closed besides the food courts.
Building map B wasn't to focus on as it was just housing many shopping centers around 1,000 something and three different movie theaters.
Study the two-building map and spots where they need to go. The Elevator is not even too far away.
DING!
Look at their phone. Along with many others.
It was now the next day.
Recheck the hours. All right will have no issue still open.
Then the lights went down inside the mall besides the lights from many cellphones.
"Demons from Greed! Far, wide who ready to buy the new trend that all your brats wants and needs?" A familiar robotic voice called out.
Screams all around the place waiting for the store with the sign that says TOY ZONE to be open! Many are already waving their wallets. If you can see in the dark which many can as they are imps. They were two random green lights just swirling around the whole area.
That almost sounded like one those Fizz bot things? Eh maybe got another job.
"To make this day even special and expensive! We have the big man themselves to open up those doors! -"
Extra green lights arrived but were coming down the ceiling flashing when the speaker was talking.
"-You know him! You love him! You probably owe him! You may even owe many merchandises of his! -"
A light warning would have been appreciated. Some demon screaming about 'MY EYES!'
"-Give it up for the King of Money! The one and only top jester! The Rock and Roll clown! -"
Then a figure began to walk up. They had quite a large body with four arms that started to move. Glowing neon green jewels on their body with a neon green crown. A big smile appeared with sharp teeth as their glowing vivid yellow-green eyes look down.
"-KING MAMMON!"
Is that a pine tree for those cars to give it a good smell?
All light stops then all turn to be pointed at the figure in their divine glory.
"Doo-wap
Ba-ba-doo-wap
Ba-ba-doo
Ba-da-ba-da-doo-wap"
The crowd started to snap, then dance to a certain rhythm.
"Welcome to Toyzone
It's world-renowned
The palace for all of your under-grown"
Mammon spread his arms out wide as he grins down below. Just enjoying the amount of demons her. The amount of money.
"It's a pageant for the gallant
Parents who are slightly imbalanced
We're slashing prices"
Open the gate up as he walks down the stairs. A little dance as he moves with the beat.
"'Cause you've got vices
That come in a variety of sizes
You see deal
I see a meal
But only one of us is getting a steal
Did you know if you spend money
Your kids will love you maybe"
Reach the bottom and with a snap of his fingers the barrier left. Demons started to run up the stairs in excrement. Yet, making sure to give the larger sin space.
"We're slashing prices
It's brutality!
Makes me question my morality"
Tap his chin with a thinking look. Then he laughs as he waves it off. Watch everyone going up, even pushing a few to get up faster. At
"'Cause our doors are open
To the public, don't you want it
For us capitalists, we are honest
Come for the scope and grandeur
'Cause our doors are open
Trampling is part of the allure
Yes our doors are open to you
Wap-do
Ba-ba-wap-do"
Mammon eyes watches the crowd. Yes, yes hurry up! You got to come buy it! Until their eyes zero in on someone in the very back.
"Ba-ba-wap
Ba-da-ba-da-dwap-do"
All right. Over here. Moxxie walking across. Until suddenly the back of their scarf was grab. A startled yelp then spun in the air to see the big grinning jester. Then the sin started to dance and jump back to the stair case.
"You could've shopped any day
But you chose today"
Leaps up to get to the second floor. Still holding Moxxie by the back of the scarf. Who very wide eye at what going on.
"It's no wonder
Here's your number"
Place Moxxie somewhat up front with a few other customers. Right in front of the door to Toy Zone. The four Fizz bots that look like employees to keep the door and no one to go inside. The workers that weren't bot look as dead as the fear that's coming in soon.
"Know your place in line
I'll pay to move up!
I never skim off the top
It's also advisable
That we're not liable for anyone who dies"
What?
"We'll gladly give you money"
Customers bringing their money up in the air. Mammon smiles big as he licks his lips and cartoon dollar signs pop out their eyes.
"I'll gladly take your money now
I want the doll with the tummy"
Customers point at the poster selling the doll. It looks like some rip of bear with a punch able stomach!
"Oh, don't we all and here is how you get
The very thing you want"
Open the doors to the Toy Bank. Then close it shut to not let them in yet.
"The highest of holidays
Comes but once a year"
He began to dance around. Shove a few employees out of the way.
"I'm not talking 'bout the fat man and his reindeer
It's the crème brûlée
Following turkey day"
That requires a bottle of pepper spray"
A female imp huffed as she sprays her co-worker eyes when they try to take her wallet.
"Did you know you'll spend money
400 on average, quite seriously
It's a factoid
You can't escape boy"
Mammon points at the imp that trying to get away. Until their block by the grinning bot.
"Remember all your cheques are null and void
When our doors burst open
Your republic is on the market
Your net worth is in my back pocket"
Touch the back of their pants. Too slowly along with a disturbing manner swinging their hips around.
"And it weighs my pants down
As our doors thrust open"
The employees look sick, horrid or look away when they see the king of Greed thrust his hips out.
"I'm you annual entrepreneur
Yes our doors are open
Oh our doors are open
Yes our doors are open"
Pulls a few employees to their side. Then smile big as they start to dance together.
"Give us your fucking money
Give us your fucking cash
Give us your fucking money
It's where it's at oh
I, I, I like to
Touch, touch, touch my money!"
Mammon cackles as he looks at a passing mirror to fix himself up.
"Did you know if you spend money
Your kids will love you maybe
They're slashing prices
IT'S INSANITY
Do we have any morality
When the doors are open"
Mammon snaps his fingers. On cue the doors to the store are wide open. He smiles very big as he spreads his arms out. "Thank you very much for your generosity! Your donations are gladly accepted! Good morning!"
"YEAH!"
DING!
Moxxie gasped as quickly as they were now inside the elevator as the doors closed. Note to self-add notifications like events of these on phone to avoid! It was damn pure luck to not lose their composure and lose their mind. Pull their phone out to look at the time. Then a thought crossed. Yeah, that wouldn't do, along with irritating even with the hoodie up. Open their inventory box.
This one can do.
Now many lottery banks are closed at reasonable times. Just like banks. Even their security system as there are times many do try to rigged it. AKA like Mammon. Just because he rules his ring doesn't mean he should win every lottery ticket game. That includes the other rings. But that's not why we're here to talk about him. There is a lottery office that stays open 24/7. Usually, one closes by like a gas station or a store that sells tickets. But the one in the mall stays open since you never know.
It can be a slow boring job with terrible pay. No, I can't have the money. Many fools try to steal it, plan robbers or do the whole switchbox. Just stop. Bring the real ticket, scratch off over. You'll get your money easily.
Sure easy.
"You're serious?" The hybrid imp and lizard like hellborn stare at the mask. Did they hit their head?
Of the ridiculous request. Well, it was already ridiculous how much money they won from a cheap ass scratch office. Did the usual tests to make sure it legit. Well, it's legit along with in their system and only 1% possibility of winning it.
Lucky bastered
Moxxie knobs wearing a black mask. Hood still up. It does look like they seem to be planning a robbery. Which isn't the case. They just don't want those cameras to see their face. The one below is not much trouble. The raffle ticket on the table.
"Okay look I just can't magically transfer half this to someone bank account! That's not my job! I can call the banks that this much is being transferred offered."
Stare at them as they let out a sigh.
"Let me get the other half and the-You don't trust me to call in a few hours, do you?"
A gun was pointed out at them. Already making themselves comfy on the counter.
"All right! All right um let me see if there any banks open because of today." Grab the phone as they grumble while getting out of the suitcase ready for the other half.
Two hours later.
DING!
Moxxie walk out of the elevator as they arrived on the first floor. Didn't seem to care or notice how TOY ZONE caught on fire. Customers are running out with their purchases. Pull out their phone to relook at everything that needs to be done.
Welp that was done. Now to the next spot.
~ ~ ~ ~ ~ ~ ~
Done!
We got a Mammon moment here! Who agrees that song fitted him?
Don't Own the Song.
Any questions?
Until next time.
Bye, bye!
