Schnickelfritz took a chunk out of the block of the Swiss cheese open on his desk, and he chewed thoughtfully. "It's good, but it needs a tiny bit more aging. Jenna, please call the company and tell them that I am disappointed," he commanded his secretary, Jenna. She nodded, picked up her clipboard, and with a flash of a grin twirled out of the room. Schnickelfritz heard a phone dial in the hallway outside, and suddenly his line rang. He picked up the receiver:
"Hello," he said, "you've reached the Chairman of Cheese."
"I am speaking to Schnickelfritz of The Sonic Community," the man on the other end replied. It was more of a statement than a question, but Schnickelfritz agreed nonetheless.
"Well, tell your petty leaders that there's going to be a big problem coming," the man snarled.
"LSB?" Schnickelfritz asked, but the other line had already dropped off.
Ash The Hedgehog grunted, and hoisted her leg over the seat of her bike.
"Of course," she grunted, "we have to live right next to Site News, where I can't even make topics, yet I hang out at the South end of town in the Fan Fiction section. It's just not fair!"
"Ash, where are you going?" TheShadowWalker asked.
"I'm going home," she answered.
"We told Zezima we'd all go out to lunch," SonicFanPS2 said. "Come on. Man, no wonder no one wants to babysit you. It takes two people and you're so stubborn."
Ash turned her bike around and followed the two up to the Random Mall. "I'm bored," she said with a roll of her eyes.
"You're already sitting down," TheShadowWalker said, "so all I have to do now is ask you to shut up. Meow -- oops, I mean, 'there.'"
The video game store was packed with people; it was the Sega Debate day and only on The Sonic Community could people freely express their opinions on upcoming Sonic games.
"'So, Sonic 4: is it going to suck or not?'" one member asked, reading aloud one of the ideas for starting discussions.
"Probably," another member shouted.
"Of course not!" a third countered.
The Administrators poked their way in, after maneuvering the still-growing crowd. The four split up, hunting down the best games they could find. After each found a winning game box, they took them to the counter where they were given the game cartridge where each of the members paid.
"This one is thirty rings," XNinjaRed said, bored at his post.
"Thanks, X," The Freedom Fighter said, swiping his debit card. The rest paid in cash, and decided to sit in for parts of the meeting.
TheShadowWalker, Ash The Hedgehog, and SonicFanPS2 entered at the same time as Schnickelfritz.
"Hey, Schnickelfritz," Ash The Hedgehog said.
"I need to find Zezima," Schnickelfritz said.
"Just call him," TheShadowWalker said.
"Good point," Schnickelfritz responded. "No point looking for him in such a crowded mall." With that, he turned around and headed back to his office, taking out his cell phone and beginning to dial as he walked to the bus stop.
The troll continued to look at the site he was about to attack. "A pity," he said, "that such a great site will fall." He was not new to the troll world, just not very well known. He was Televisor, he was strong! Strong enough to dominate this crazy site. He clicked the register button, and began to fill out the fields.
"It would be stupid to put my name in," he said. "Aha! I shall take a completely different approach."
"Sandra The Cat," he filled out for the username. Televisor set the birth date, and the gender.
Eleven years old.
Female.
