The store was still open, despite everything. Apu insisted, and Mike had to admit that he'd want the place to be here if any kids from the school needed anything.

The psychotic car-part-wearing maniacs were still across the street, and if anything their numbers had grown. That was going to be a problem. So far they had only approached the store in ones and twos, and were easy enough to take out, but Mike did not want to think about what would happen if they came in force. Especially since he wasn't going to be here for part of the afternoon.

He called the panda up to look out the window with him, and put a friendly arm around the large bear's shoulders. "Do you see those guys? Those are NOT good guys. They are mean, and they are nasty, and they are vicious killers. It is very important that none of them are allowed to enter the store. Do you understand me?"

The panda gave Mike a disinterested look.

Mike sighed tried a somewhat different tack. "I thought you liked hurting people? It is never going to be okay to go after the island's residents, but you have free reign to do whatever you want to these people."

Still no interest.

"You like Apu, right? He's your friend? If they get in, they will hurt him, and he can't defend himself very well."

A little flicker.

"If they get into the store, they will steal your cheese."

The panda snarled and gave Mike a nod. If those psychos tried anything, it would be ready.
