- Title : The Hellish Hourglass
- I'll give you 4000.
- Hahahaha! I see! You like a good joke...
- But this is a serious establishment, sir!
- This is 5000 Kamas, not one less!
- Very well, no thanks, then.
- Surely you will allow me to reconsider?
- Just give me a few minutes while I... go to the bathroom!
- What are you looking for, Papycha?
- An hourglass.
- The hourglass of the Tower of Wasted Time.
- Whoa... What is it? Tell me...
- It's a... Later, Joris.
- I need to wind it up and trust me, it's not child's play.
- If you don't tell me I won't stop talking, and you won't be able to focus, and that'll serve you right because if you don't tell me I –
- *Fine!* I'll tell you.
- It was back when Lou and I were the most romantic couple in the World of Twelve.
- Well, until that day...
- It's over. Yes, you heard me well, don't pretend you don't understand, it's over!
- O-ver!
- Over!
- Furball! Kibble bum!
- You'll regret it. I will marry the first man I come across.
- Good riddance!
- I don't need a ranter. It's not my fault I have fans.
- I'm a hero. She doesn't know how lucky she is to have me.
- And if she thinks I'm going to run after her, she...
- Loulou!
- Loulou!
- Loulou had indeed married the first man she had come across.
- She was already on her honeymoon – it took me /days/ to find her.
- Loulou! I'm coming!
- Alas! Her husband was none other than the Mad Xelor, a sadistic monster who trapped his victims within deadly mechanisms!
- Meow?
- This place reeks of traps like spoiled kibbles.
- But dungeons don't impress me.
- It was indeed not much to write home about.
- All the traps were absolutely common.
- Lou! I'm here!
- You! I told you I didn't want to see even one of your whiskers anymore!
- I don't need you, I'm very happy with my husband.
- HELP MEEE!
- Loulou! Listen to me!
- I came to apologize!
- Lou!
- Now, Loulou, be reasonable!
- Don't come near me or I'll scream!
- But don't you see that –
- Noooooooooo!
- Wow! That's horrible!
- No, no, Joris. Wait for the rest.
- Unless you're scared?
- Not even scared!
- Good.
- The world was crumbling under my paws. My beautiful Loulou, my very own puppy-girl... atomized.
- What am I doing here?
- Lou?
- It was my Loulou! She was alive!
- Through what miracle, that I didn't know, but believe you me, I wasn't about to let her be atomized twice!
- Ecaflipping. Everything was the same as before.
- You! I told you I didn't want to see even one of your whiskers anymore!
- Lou! My love! It's really you!
- I thought I'd lost you! It was horrible!
- I beg you, let me tell you –
- In your dreams!
- It was a game!
- The tower was trapped with some curse. Time rewound every five minutes!
- Lucky for me: I love games.
- Challenge accepted, Mad Xelor!
- You! I told you I –
- Yes! I know! And I bet you're very happy with your new husband!
- Go away!
- Get away from me! I didn't allow you to save me!
- I have enough time!
- I'll make it!
- I'm good!
- No slacking off!
- As with all games, it was only a matter a patience and practice.
- Noooo!
- I'm good! I'm good!
- Not good...
- However, patience isn't infinite. And practice gets tiring.
- Alright. There must be something I'm not doing right.
- Let's see...
- Flames, got it. Needles, mastered them. No problem with the slide.
- Disappearing stairs, easy. Iron giant, no sweat.
- Run past the hourglass, and –
- Of course! The hourglass! That's the key!
- You! I told you –
- Yes! I know, Loulou! Just passing through, give me five seconds.
- If I take this thing out...
- There you go.
- Who's the boss? It's me!
- Who's the hero? It's me!
- Who's Loulou's Keke?
- Meow! Critical failure! The trap was completely out of whack!
- I'll never make it!
- Fortunately, when you've tried everything and everything has failed, you can still count on luck.
- Lou?
- You came to save me, my cute Keke?
- Of course!
- I explained the whole story. Enthralled by my courage, she forgave everything.
- A thousand times? I was atomized a thousand times?
- Maybe more! You know me, I never give up!
- That's who I am!
- You let me get atomized a thousand times!?
- This time it's over!
- OVER!
- But Lou!
- Lou! Please!
- Don't bother following me, fleabag.
- Ah, Lou.
- And that's why you want to sell this hourglass? To forget about this story?
- Certainly not!
- But thanks to this, I might get my sale!
- A discount? Haha! You're in luck!
- You are the hundredth customer of the Week of the Tofu, sir!
- Me? Really?
- And I'm not giving you 50, not 100, but...
- 1000 Kamas off! On this 6000-Kama item!
- Oh! Then I'll take it!
- Don't forget, sir, that in Kerub's shop, the customer always gets the last word!
