Last night, you (Kris, they/them) and your Monster friend Susie had been on your couch, watching TV together until the two had fallen asleep... well, until Susie fell asleep, as she usually did. You hadn't watched TV in a while honestly... but that wasn't the same case for what you did next...
...long story short, you both woke up to another world of darkness around you. Being supposed Heroes of Prophecy, you both were getting used to Dark Worlds popping out of mowhere at this point. So, uniting the trio with your Darkner friend Ralsei, you all adventured this new flashy and bright world, that strangely seemed reminiscent of TV... if the tall Darkner guy with a TV as his head acting as a desperate gameshow host, following you all around to get you to play his games, didn't set that feeling already.
Regardless, you cleared all their games and recruited all of the Darkner personnel back to Castle Town, a Dark World acting as a central hub for all Darkners to peacefully hang out!... except, there was one Darkner that you & the others still haven't seen, but you've heard mentioned many times...
Whilst in the TV World, the TV man, Tenna, would constantly be like:
"MIKE, roll the tape!
"MIKE, open up that door!
"MIKE, CUT! CUT!
But you never saw this "Mike." Except now, in a building made for the new TV World Darkners, there was a locked room door, with Mike's name spread across it... and also the passcode right next to it... you couldn't resist.
You entered the passcode, and the doors opened up. With Susie and Ralsei following behind you, as you all made your way through dusty halls & past some microphone statues, you eventually reached a similar set of doors, that seemed locked but didn't have anywhere to enter a passcode...
Susie: How the hell do we open these ones? Ralsei: Umm... a-are you sure we should go further? It doesn't seem we're supposed to be here. Susie: What? You're not curious about who this guy is? Tenna mentioned him all the time!
Susie said that a little loudly... and somehow, it opened up the doors, like they were noise-activated! The room seemed very dark inside...
Ralsei: Oh!- Um... Kris, I suppose you could peek inside.
So, you took a couple steps in... then suddenly, the doors behind you slammed shut!
Susie: HUH?! HEY! banging on the doors Let us in!
You weren't sure if they actually locked, but you were sure could hear a voice in the darkness... a very presentative voice.
Motormouth: Eh?! What the- Ay! Who goes? Didn't ya read the door? Only person allowed here is MIKE! The one and only! So when I turn these lights on, you better be MIKE, or else we're gonna have some BIG trouble!
You could hear multiple slapstick noises as whoever was there headed for a lightswitch. When they turned them on, they were revealed... a short, suited-up Darkner with a microphone, and big smile, as a head.
Motormouth: frowning Huh?! The HECK are you doing here?! We're gonna be on the air soon, you little slime! Are ya trying to be room noise?!
A taller figure walked into view; another suited-up Darkner with a taller mic for a head, boxing gloves and... a cowboy hat?
Cowboy: What da problem, boss?- Oh... uh... hi. My name's Mike. Big mouth Mike, yea.
Motormouth: It's MOTORMOUTH Mike! And I'm supposed to be the one doing the talking! You're just the muscles!
Then, one more figure came into view: a tall black cat with a white belly patch, with a yellow and pink eye, standing on their feet that were microphone heads & having microphones for hands. They showed no sign of talking, just a wide smile that quickly frowned at seeing you, but they had a tag on their red bowtie that said "Cat Mike/Pluey."
Cowboy: And, uh... what does he do again, boss?
Motormouth: He listens! I speak! You brawl! It's all in the Mike Code of Conduct! Because WE'RE Mike! remembering you Oh right. turning So, who are ya, huh?! How'd you get in this PRIVATE room, ay?!
