2nd Edition

(there’s something hidden in this picture :3)

Info

You’re probably going like “WTEH WOMAN Y ANOTHER WORLD DANGERS THINGY”. Well, woman, I thought about World Dangers, and how I wanted to revive it somehow. So I came up with the idea of making a series (similar to TV Shows) instead of a full on out movie like what World Dangers, World Dangers 2, and The Sandbox was going for.

        The differences between World Dangers and World Dangers The Series is like the contrast between movies and TV serieses; a TV Series plot moves slower, and has some filler things, but is generally longer lasting, while movies don’t get a lot of time to explain the plot and sometimes has some plot holes in them that don’t get explained until the sequel. I came up with the idea of World Dangers being a series by obviously the greatest cartoon show ever, and would like to see how this goes.

FAQ

Q: Is the plot of World Dangers and its sequels going to continue in this World Dangers?

A: Yes in some ways. All I’ll say is that Kitten is alive and that the mysterious woman from World Dangers 2 is still a major character.

Q: How do I write along?

A: Well, think about how a TV Series moves the story. It progressively adds detail to characters, showing their backgrounds, and having the characters change or learn in new ways. TV series don’t just throw in a bunch of characters and expect you to know them and not have them change throughout the entire show. Have your fictional characters come in at one time, and introduce them with a unique background or make them reveal something about themselves as they get more comfortable with the gang. And remember, I don’t care what you write, as long as it holds relevance and that you don’t delete other people’s writings and cause a major conflict.

Q: Are there going to be more FAQs?

A: Yes. Just ask me, and I’ll put it here if it clarifies things that a lot of people may get confused about.

Q: How do you fit all that in them jeans?
A: very carefully

Q: Whenever you write stories, do you stay up all night to work on them?

A: Yes.

Q: What is the difference between the 1st edition and the 2nd edition?

A: Here is a list of most of the changes:

Here is a list of things that are not going to be fixed:


Prologue

[The sun comes up and through the horizon line as the sky begins to light up half of the world again.]

Videm: I stayed up all night, working on my story, and I’ve finally finished it!

Vince: Ooh, I love stories!

Spicy: What story?

Videm: The story of our origins as a group. I don’t know what to call it, though.

Zeke: I’m guessing I’m not in it?

Videm: You’re not really part of the main gang, yet. I’m also too lazy to write another character :D

Zeke: Meh, I don’t care.

Videm: You sure don’t care about a lot of things. Anyway, a man in shady glasses gave me a little pamphlet that talks about a vacation place!

Catalina: A vacation place!?  I’ve been working my butt off, so that’d be nice!

Videm: Alright, so who wants to go? Counting Catalina?

Vince: ME!

Spicy: Where is it?

Videm: In a place near the seas, where the water rises and falls, and near it is a forest. We’re going to stay in a big mansion, apparently.

Catalina: Mansion!?  Of course!  I’m going!

Spicy: I’ll go!

Vince: Too much detail, why can’t you just say a big mansion?

Videm: Because I’m Videm.

Zeke: I guess I’ll go, it’s not like I had anything else to do…

Vince: Woooooot! Let’s go! :D

Videm: Where are the others? We need the other peepz like Jeffrey, Sam, Minami, Abby, and other people I probably forgot.

Spicy: I dunno…

Vince: They’re lazy.

Videm: Oh well, they can come whenever. Let’s just go!

Vince: Do they even know where it is?

Videm: The pamphlet doesn’t mention a location. The shady guy just said to meet them at the Patrolion Forests, and they will give us a ride to said location.

[They ride the plane to the vacation place.]

Vince: Yaaaay! I love planes! Spicy, are you okay? You are claustrophobic after all.

Spicy: Yeah, I’m fine.  Zeke, though…

[Zeke looks like he’s about to throw up.]

Videm: Zeke, do you need another paper bag? I’ve got plenty here… Don’t ask me why I have paper bags, though…

Zeke: I—I’m… fine…

Vince: Ooh, he has ‘plenty’ of them. Teehee.

Videm: Darnit Vince.

Vince: Don’t darnit me.

Catalina: There’s no need for fighting!  We’re going on a vacation!!

Videm: I agree with Catalina, even though Vince started it.

Vince: Oh wooooooow.

[Videm looks out the window.]

Videm: The ocean is very interesting. I wonder what it would feel like to be a wave.

Spicy: I hate the ocean…

Videm: I only hate the ocean because of its mysteriousness, and creepiness. There’s too many weird creatures.

Vince: Why do you always talk about the mysterious and creepy stuff, Videm?

Videm: I’m a pretty mysterious guy. I know many things.

Vince: Well then just don’t.

Videm: I still have strange thoughts about Kitten, y’know?

Vince: You mean that Kitten? Oh god, not him/her.

Videm: Sometimes I wish she didn’t exist, but at the same time, I want her to exist.

Vince: Well, he considers him/herself a transgender.

Videm: And I consider your gender unknown, but that doesn’t mean I don’t use the proper pronoun for Kitten.

Zeke: I wonder how you two don’t piss off the people behind us by referring to this person as “a” transgender.

Videm: Well, Vince said it first.

Catalina: What is a “transgender”?

Spicy: Uh… sorry, I don’t know the Spanish word for it…

Videm: It’s basically a person who likes being a girl but not a boy or the other way around.

Vince: Um… that’s one way to put it.

Catalina: Oh, so “transgénero” in Spanish, of course…

[A few hours later.]

Videm: Ugh, how long is this plane ride going to take?

Vince: Where’s the food? I hate plane food, but I’m so hungry.

Flight Attendant: I heard “I hate plane food”!

Vince: Um, just give me steak and some cheesecake and I’ll pretend I never said that.

Flight Attendant: We don’t have steak or cheesecake, but what we do have is excellent quality plane food to serve you!

Vince: Well then make someone make it!

Spicy: We’re in the sky, Vince.  Resources are limited.

Vince: … plane food is normally just normal food, but made to be served on a plane. I’m literally supposed to pay you for the food.

Flight Attendant: We have high quality cheese, some high quality salad, some high quality pudding, and some high quality macaroni.

Vince: Um… everything here is horrible except the macaroni and cheese… Spicy… shoot me now…

Spicy: I like cheese.  :D

[Vince hits Spicy in the head.]

Spicy: Ow. D:<

Videm (way in the back): ANSWER IS NOT THE VIOLENCE!

Catalina: I would like a salad, please!

Flight Attendant: Coming right up, ma’am.

[The Flight Attendant walks away, and into the room.]

Flight Attendant: One person down, four more to go.

[The Flight Attendant pours liquid from a container into the packaged salad, then goes back to the people.]

Videm: Oh, um. Flight Attendant, I need your assistance, please.

Flight Attendant: I’m too bu- I mean, sure! I’ll just… set aside this salad and help you… *curses under her breath*

[The Flight Attendant and Videm go to the bathroom.]

Videm: So, uh… I have this issu-

[The Flight Attendant instantly grabs Videm and slams him against the wall.]

Videm: OW! What the heck are you doing!?

Flight Attendant: Making sure you don’t mess with my plans!

[The Flight Attendant quickly goes out of the bathroom and locks it from the outside.]

Vince: What’s going on in there?

Flight Attendant: Oh, uh… Videm needed some serious help.

Vince: Whatever. Just give me some macaroni and don’t forget the cheese. Non-processed, and make sure you put in some bread flakes and make sure it’s creamy and cooked on a stove and make sure that it looks appetizing and please, no ketchup, it ruins macaroni and cheese for me. Also, if you can please make it within ten minutes. Thank you.

Flight Attendant: Ugh… I mean, coming right up!

[The Flight Attendant walks away, as the scene focuses on Vince and the others.]

Vince: So, what did you order, Zeke?

Zeke: Nothing.  I’m not hungry.

Vince: Oh. Spicy, what did you order?

Spicy: Cheese.

Vince: Oh… that’s… well okay then.

Vince: Flight attendant lady! *calls her over and reads her nametag*

Flight Attendant: What is it?

Vince: Cheryl, can I have a glass of water. This plane is very stuffy and hot.

Cheryl: I’m sorry, but our water supplies are limited, and we can’t serve glass water right now.

Vince: Well then get whatever water you have, and give it to me.

Cheryl: We have sink water, but the bathroom is occupied right now.

Vince: Well then, I will break down that door and take that sink water if I have to.

Cheryl: Don’t! You’ll rev- I mean damage the plane! We can fine charges, you know!

[Vince gets up and breaks down the bathroom door.]

Spicy: Critical hit…

Vince: Oops. Too late.

[Vince gets bombarded by Videm’s fall, having fallen asleep.]

Vince: Um… is he dead or something?

Videm: AH! IT’S A SPIRIT!

[Videm flails around, getting up from his dream.]

Catalina: Are you alright, Videm?

Videm: Oh, uh… I guess I’m fine. Where’d that Flight Attendant go? I need to show her a little thing called revenge, and no, not that one presentation I had to do in school.
Vince: She ran off that way *points in a random direction while getting water from the bathroom sink*

Videm: You pointed at the wall…

Vince: Well then head in that direction, but, be careful, there’s a wall there.

Videm: I’m not stupid! Where is she!?
Cheryl: Did someone say ‘stupi- I mean ‘Where is she!?’

[Then Cheryl comes out, and sees Videm and the others. She frowned, putting her hands on her hips.]

Cheryl: Oh, it’s you…

Vince: Cheryl, where’s my macaroni and cheese?

Videm: Cheryl here locked me in the bathroom, and knocked me out!

Catalina: Why would you do that!?  That’s inhuman!
Cheryl: I wasn’t planning on revealing myself now, but I might as well… Then again…

[Cheryl places her feminine hands on the lever.]

Cheryl: I could just evacuate the plane…

Vince: That is just… no girl.

Videm: We’ve stopped many more dangers than a little, malevolent woman like you!

Vince: *snrrrk* He called her a little woman.

Cheryl: One…

[Cheryl’s fingers firmly wrapped around the lever.]

Videm: Spicy, do something!

Spicy: Catalina!  Your whip!

Catalina: My whip?

Cheryl: Two…

Catalina: Right!  My whip!  I take it everywhere!

Videm: Well then make use of it!

[Catalina pulls out her whip and whips Cheryl’s fingers whilst Cheryl yells three and pulls the lever, making the doors of the plane open, and the glasses of the plane shattered in almost a perfect unison.]

Vince: Ha, your plan isn’t so perfect now, is it?

Videm: Hold onto a chair!

[Spicy holds onto Zeke, who holds onto a chair.]

Vince: Ooh, romance.

[Vince quickly grabs onto a chair.]

[Videm grabs onto two chairs nearby, then kicks Cheryl when he jumps.]

Cheryl: GRAH!

[Cheryl falls down onto the ground, trying to hold onto the ground, as her hat flew away and her hair flew all around, she looked up at Videm.]

Cheryl: You’ll regret going back!

Videm: What?!

[Cheryl suddenly disappears, while the plane starts making beep noises. The captain of the plane runs out of the front door.]

Captain: AHHH! RUN FOR YOUR LIVES!

[The Captain shakes his arms in the air, then accidently trips and falls out of the plane.]

Videm: We have no choice! We have to jump off, except not tripping like he did!

Zeke: I… I’m an acrophobe!  I’m afraid of heights!

Vince: Me too!

Videm: Do you want to live, or do you want to die? Because living through fears is better than grasping those fears for the entirety of your remembered life!

Vince: Are you trying to be poetic?

Spicy: Don’t worry, I’ll make you jump off, Zeke.

[Spicy holds onto Zeke, and starts to jump off the plane.]

Videm: Catalina, we’ll jump off together!

Catalina: Alright.

Videm: You’re not afraid?

Catalina: This is nothing, as a thief I had to jump out of much worse circumstances.

[Videm and Catalina also jump off.]

Vince: Rude! That leaves me all alone!

[Vince jumps off the plane, screaming at the top of his lungs while flailing in the air.]

Announcer: AND NOW WE’RE BACK TO WORLD DANGERS!

[The five all scream as they endlessly fall, and fall, and fall, and fall.]

Videm: Wait… why is it all white around it? And why are we still falling? And how did you guys line up perfectly with our fall?

Zeke: I don’t know, I just want to be on the ground again…

Videm: Weird…

Vince: Technically we should be dead because we gain more speed as we fall, and if we continue falling for too long we’ll die from the altitude.

???: D’ve,, …’’v’’eee rr’’ee…v tt’’’eee…

Videm: What was that? Who said that!?

[Videm’s question was interrupted by a bright flash and all of them waking up on a beach.]

Zeke: Finally… ground beneath my feet…

Vince: Oh my god I hated that soooo much.

[Spicy still has their arm around Zeke.]

Zeke: You can let go now…

Spicy: Oh, yeah.  Right.

[Spicy lets go of Zeke.]

Catalina: Where are we…?

[They all look around the beach. Videm gets up from the sandy ground, scratching his head. He smiles at the sight of the building ahead.]

Videm: That’s it! That’s the mansion we’re headed to!

Catalina: It looks much nicer than I imagined!

Videm: Let’s go!

[The gang head towards the mansion, the camera pans out, and outro music starts playing.]


Episode 1 - Trips and Turns

[The mansion is shown on a rainy night. The waves of the water splashes and splashes until they become tired, and take a break.]

[The gang walks up and onto the porch of the mansion.]

Videm: Wow, pretty ominous and creepy…

Spicy: *in creepy voice* Don’t get scared, Vince…

Vince: Says you.

Spicy: Says me?  *in creepy voice* I’m not scared at all, little boy…

Zeke: *hits Spicy* Cut it out.

[Videm pulls out the pamphlet, and reads some sections of the mansion part.]
Videm: It says here there’s a but-

Vince: A butt? *laughs*

Butler: Are you referring to me?

[The gang turns around, facing the giant stairs that intersected the middle of the room. On the top of the stairs stands a man with dark, almost crimson hair, which matches his little mustache. He is quite skinny, yet small. His arms are behind him.]

Vince: Oh god you startled me.

Butler: I apologize.

Videm: Hello, sir, what’s your name?

Morris: Morris, at your service.

Videm: I like how that kinda rhymed. This is the best butler ever :D

Morris: I appreciate your compliment.

Videm: Can you give us a tour of the mansion?

Morris: Of course.  It’s only correct that I give future guests of this place a tour.

Videm: Sweet! I’m gonna call all of our friends to come

Vince: Yay! Full-on tour! *tummy rumbles* Do you have any food to spare?

Morris: The refectory is right this way.  Please, follow.

Vince: Ooooooooh!

[Morris takes the group to the refectory. The platinum chandelier hangs from the detailed ceiling. The architecture is also detailed, having many cultural things carved into it. The wallpapers have interesting patterns, and the table is all tidy and neat; the plates are sparkling, and the arrangements of the eating utensils are in such a smart position. The chairs are bright red, having their fancy outlines and pattern lines be orange, almost as if every chair is a king’s chair.]

Morris: This is the refectory, or dining hall.

Videm: Fancy!

Morris: Please, take a seat.

Vince: Food! :D

Morris: I will have the chefs bring out a feast, I’m sure you’re all hungry from your trip here.

Vince: Yes, now please hurry and bring the food. I’m starving.

[Chefs bring out several serving platters, covered by lids.  They lay the food on the table, and everyone is given a plate, silverware, and napkins.  The food under the lids range from rare seafood to extravagant dessert items: from crepes to beautifully crafted pudding.]

Vince: So much food… Must devour…

Videm: This is… this is what heaven is like…

Spicy: I’ve never seen this much food in my life…

Catalina: How was this much food made in so little time?

Morris: The food was prepared the day before, the chefs cooked in advance anticipating you all.

Videm: Where are the chefs? I’d like to give them a great big hug :D

Morris: The chefs are currently working on tomorrow’s breakfast, they must not be disturbed.

Videm: Okay :D

[The gang run to their chairs and eat their meals.]

Vince: Food! I shall eat you like I’ve never eaten food before!

Videm: Wow, this banana pudding is really, really good!

Vince: This food is sooooooo good ^3^

Zeke: This lobster puts all other lobsters to shame…

Catalina: I’m not sure if I’ll be able to eat more than one plate…

~3 hours later~

Videm: *BURRRRP* Unghh… I’m so FULL!

Vince: I think, I’m going to die *falls onto floor*

Zeke: I’m too skinny for this…

Spicy: Same, though…

Catalina: Two plates… one over my prediction…

Morris: Are you all finished?

Videm: Y…yes.

Morris: It’s time to continue our tour, unless you’d rather go to your rooms at this time?

Vince: I need to go to my room and unpack my invisible suitcases.

Videm: Wait, you have an invisible suitcase?!

Vince: Well, we don’t have any since we forgot to take them while we were on the plane.

Videm: Oh… stop giving me false sense of hope D:<

Morris: Alright, your rooms are this way, please follow me.

[Morris leads Videm to his room, then Videm enters it. The wallpaper is quite bubbly, and the color is shaded green. The bed is quite huge, with the bed’s back having nice, fine wood texture and quality. The wooden floor is also quite rich, and the lights are almost like a miniature version of the dining hall’s chandelier. Videm walks up to the dresser, opens it, and finds nothing.]

Videm: Hm… I would put clothes in here if I had any…

[Spicy and Zeke enter the room that was assigned to them.  The walls are a dark shade of blue, with a gradient of a lighter blue on the top of the wall.  The bed is king-size, and there is a walk-in closet with an assortment of clothes that are already there, organized perfectly by color.]

Zeke: Why do we have to share a room?

Spicy: Maybe they thought we were a couple?

Zeke: Who would think that?

Spicy: Anyone who meets us, probably…

[Catalina enters her assigned room, which has red walls and a small bed, meant for one person.  In compensation for this, there is a set of weights in the corner, and plenty of room, with a tan colored carpet as flooring, which stands out horribly against the red of the room.  There is a dresser shoved lazily against the wall left of the door.]

Catalina: This is quite an… ugly… room, but I suppose I’ll deal with it…

[Vince enters his assigned room, which is made up of two colors, blue and pink.  A twin-sized bed is neatly arranged between the wall and a bedside table, and a desk is against the wall opposite the bed.  An empty walk-in closet is in the empty space between the wall with the door, and the bed.]

Vince: Interesting…

Vince: It’s so neat.

[Vince runs to the bed, collapses, and falls asleep.]

[Zeke lays on the bed, and Spicy lays beside him.]

Spicy: G’night.

Zeke: Yeah…

[Zeke turns off the lamp and the two fall asleep.]

[Catalina lays on the twin-sized bed all alone and falls asleep.]

[Videm also lays down on his bed, being alone, falling asleep.]

Weird Intermission Thing

[Morris rushes down the stairs, uncharacteristically running with his arms going back and forth. He runs over to the little hidden door, opening it. He walks into it with his brows slanting down, then he peeks out from behind the door, looking left and right, then closes it quietly.]

[Morning rises and a random rooster that is somehow on a random island wakes up the five guests.]

 Zeke: *yawns* That was the best sleep I’ve had in… years.

[Videm opens the door, rushing in to find Zeke and Spicy.]

Videm: Guys, guys! Come look what I found!

[Zeke and Spicy, confused, stands.]

Spicy: What did you find?

Videm: Come quick! I found a piece of a strange artifact!

Zeke: Huh…?

[The five (five because Videm tagged Catalina and Vince on the way) go over to the room that is two rooms across Videm’s.]

Vince: Where are we going?

Videm: I found this room as I was exploring around the mansion.

[Videm explains to them as he opens the door, revealing a room similar to Videm’s, except the wallpaper is light orange with strange, stripe patterns. The bed is pink-orange, and the drapes of the bed are almost crystal-like. On the bed lies a strange thick-shaped L piece of rock. It has strange patterns written on it.]

Videm: I found this on the bed, I don’t know what it means or says. Is it Spanish? Here read this, Catalina.

Catalina: No, it’s not Spanish.

Videm: Hm… I should’ve taken Spanish class. Oh well, at least I know how to sign.

[Suddenly, a slam is heard from behind them, the five turn around to see Morris. Videm quickly puts the artifact in his pocket.]

Morris: You all shouldn’t be in this room, it’s against the mansion’s policy to pry in the somewhat hidden places of this mansion.

Announcer: WE’LL BE BACK AFTER THIS COMMERCIAL BREAK

Announcer: AND NOW WE’RE BACK TO WORLD DANGERS

Videm: I swear, it wasn’t my idea! I blame Spicy!

Spicy: Me!?  It was you who dragged us down here!

Vince: It was Videm.

Morris: Whose idea it was doesn’t matter; I only care about the safety of the guests.

Videm: *sigh* Alright, I confess. I was exploring the mansion without your permission, and I stumbled upon this room.

Morris: I respect your honesty under quite embarrassing circumstances.  Now, please give me the rock piece.

Videm: W… wh… what rock piece are you talking about?… heh…

Morris: The rock piece that was sitting on that bed.

Videm: Ugh… fine. Why are you so defensive about it anyway?

[Videm says this as he picks up the rock and hands it to Morris, who then puts it in his pockets.]

Morris: I came to inform you all that breakfast is ready in the refectory whenever you are ready.

[All of them walk downstairs, the last being Morris, who sits there and whispers to himself.]

Morris: That was close…

[Down in the dining hall, there are stacks of pancakes drizzled with syrup, croissants stuffed with chocolate filling, rolls with honey topping them perfectly, and an assortment of other breakfast items filling the table.]

Vince: Food!!!!

Catalina: There are torrijas, too!?  Don’t mind me!

Videm: PANCAKES! SYRUP! YUUUSS!

[Videm literally jumps onto his chair and grabs 5 pancakes, pouring more syrup onto it.]

[Vince heads to his seat, grabs one of everything and pours nearly the whole bottle of syrup all over his plate.]

Vince: Teehee.

[Zeke puts a big spoonful of scrambled eggs on his plate, and puts a handful of bacon next to it.]

[They all eat their meals, some of them heading upstairs and into their rooms.]

Zeke: I’m going to go change.

[Zeke and Spicy both go to their room.  Zeke starts undressing, and changes into black skinny jeans and a black and white checkered sweater.  Spicy is on a laptop, sitting on the bed.]

Zeke: Where did you get that laptop?

Spicy: I found it under the bed.

Zeke: Seriously?… is there an extra one?

Spicy: Yeah, there are two.

[Zeke looks under the bed and finds a laptop.]

Zeke: Oh, hey.

Spicy: Surprisingly, this place has wifi…

Zeke: Hey, do you remember how we met?

Spicy: It’s not like you to get nostalgic, what’s up?

Zeke: I dunno… there’s just this weird thing in my stomach…

Spicy: Was it something you ate?

Zeke: No, I think it’s more like… anxiety?

Spicy: Anxiety?  Why would you have anxiety?

Zeke: Something about this place just… sets me off balance…

Spicy: Hey, we’ve been friends for a year, we’re both gay, and we’ve never once mentioned the idea of being a couple…

Zeke: Yes we have…

Spicy: Well, not in a serious way.

Zeke: Well, don’t you think it’d be kinda weird if we dated?

Spicy: You’re not denying the idea.

Zeke: Oh, go eat a sock.

[Spicy smiles as Zeke gets up and leaves the room.]

[Videm knocks on Catalina’s door, then she opens it.]

Catalina: Hey, Videm!

Videm: Hi, Catalina! What’re you doing?

Catalina: I was just working out.  My room had these dumbbells in it…

Videm: Hm… you work out a lot?

Catalina: Not really, but I’m not much of a reader so it passes the time.

Videm: Interesting. It’s strange how these rooms were almost perfect for us. Though, maybe it’s just my mind.

Catalina: Hm, maybe.  I dunno.

Videm: May I come in?

Catalina: Sure.

Videm: It feels warm in here.

Catalina: Really?  I thought it was kinda cold…

Videm: Did you have any clothes in your dresser? Mine was empty.

Catalina: It had some perfume and makeup in it, but no clothes.

Videm: Do you care about what you wear? Or…

Catalina: I don’t really bother with what I’m wearing.

[Videm puts his fingers on his lips, then hums.]

Videm: Interesting. I also have no interest in clothing whatsoever, so my dresser was vacant.

Catalina: What else was in your room?  Just curious.

Videm: Nothing else much, honestly. There was a computer, but it was broken, so I have to fix it. I’m a simple man.

Catalina: Sometimes being simple is a good thing.

Videm: Really? I don’t care a lot about things and people, and I just don’t see myself fitting in with others except this group.

Catalina: Same, even before all of this, I just worked in my father’s cafe, never having friends, just working and studying.

Videm: I work and study a lot as well.

[The bell rings, indicating it is time for lunch.]

Catalina: Oh, hey, let’s go.

Videm: Alright, well, nice meeting you.

Catalina: Same to you.

[The five people head out to the dining room once again, then consume their meals.]

Morris: Good afternoon, everyone.  I have an announcement to make.

[Everyone in their chairs turn to Morris, who is standing in front of the exit/entrance of the dining hall.]

Morris: We will be having four newcomers.

Videm: Yes, that actually shows that my phone works! Except my phone died.

Vince: RIP Videm’s phone.

Videm: Now how am I supposed to make myself look busy in awkward situations? Read a book?!

Zeke: I always just pretend, even if it’s dead.

Morris: As I was saying, the newcomers will be joining us in a few minutes.

Videm: I wonder who it will be!

[The five stand up, heading outside on the front porch.]

Videm: I see one person! No, two! No, six- actually scratch that. Four people!

Catalina: Newcomers?  Finally, some new faces…

Vince: I can’t wait to meet these new people!

[The four people come closer, and are revealed to be a doctor, a boy with brown hair, another boy with black hair, and the final person being a lady in blonde hair, wearing a blue and white dress with a skirt.]

Videm: Omar and Jeffrey! I have no idea who the other two are, though.

Vince: Alice!

Videm: Who are you?

[Videm points to the doctor.]

Dr. Marv: I’m Dr. Marv, one of the past workers of both Aperture Laboratories and Black Mesa. Yes, it’s possible to work at both places.

Videm: Interesting… Omar, have you anything to say?

Omar: Nope.

Videm: Well, fine then. Hi Jeffrey!

Jeffrey: Hai all the gurls.

Zeke: Oh, you’re the Jeffrey Spicy talks about sometimes.

Videm: Hm… Dr. Marv, how about you be my roommate? Jeffrey can be roommates with Vince, Alice can be roommates with Catalina, and Omar can be… alone.

Omar: Rude.

Zeke: I’m going to head back to my room.

Spicy: Okay, I’m coming with you.

Videm: Yeah, I think we should all head back.

[Night falls and all of them go to bed.]

Outro

[Morris inspects the rock piece closely under the microscope in his secret, underground laboratory. He takes his eyes off the microscope, standing up straight, then hums with deep resonance.]

Morris: How was it that I missed such a simple object in such an obvious room? Of course, of course! I am such an idiot…

[Morris looks at the picture frame of a smiling man.]

Morris: Don’t worry, though… I’m not the only idiot out there…


Episode 2 - The Mighty Yin-Yang

Videm: BINGO!

[Videm raises up his cards with excitement, while most of the other people are bored out of their minds.]

Zeke: Tell me again why we’re playing Bingo?

Videm: Because I said so. I won three games in a row! I am so good.

Dr. Marv: Bingo requires no skill, only luck.

Videm: Alright, then, what else should we play?

Spicy: We should play Truth or Dare!

Jeffrey: Bingo is more old ladies though.

Videm: Excuse you! Bingo takes patience, pressure, and pure hope!

[The eight, except Vince and Alice, go over to the fireplace to sit and play Truth or Dare.]

Videm: Alright, who goes first?

Jeffrey: MEEE!

Videm: Mkay. Truth or Dare?

Jeffrey: DARE!

Videm: I dare you to jump into the sea and come back

Jeffrey: How far into the ocean?

Videm: As far as you can.

Jeffrey: Kk gurl

[Jeffrey goes outside, as the others watch him from the front porch, sitting down and continuing the game while Jeffrey does his thing.]

Spicy: Omar, truth or dare?

Omar: Dare.

Spicy: I dare you to… go in and kiss Alice with no explanation.

[Omar re-enters the mansion, walks over to Alice, and quickly kisses her on the lips. She gasps in surprise, but Omar rushes out of the mansion as fast as he could.]

Omar: There I deed it. Truth or Dare, Zeke?

Zeke: Truth…

Omar: Do you love someone?!

Zeke: I… uh… *muffled* yes.

Dr. Marv: Ah, crushes. I remember them from High School. I’ve yet to talk to a woman.

Zeke: Anyway… Videm, truth or dare?

Videm: Truth. Always truth.

Zeke: Have you ever, uh, accidently hit someone in the crotch area, or in the boob?

Videm: Not really. I’ve punched myself in the crotch area by accident many times, but I don’t interact with many females in order to accidently hit… boobs.

Zeke: … fair enough.

[Jeffrey comes out of the water, shivering from the coldness.]

Videm: Well, then you can go, Jeffrey.

Jeffrey: Truth or dare, Spicy.

Spicy: Dare!

Jeffrey: I… dare… you… to… take your shirt off.

Spicy: Okay.

[Spicy takes off their shirt.]

Videm: Wow, those two nipples are small!

Spicy: A-anyway, Catalina, truth or dare?

Catalina: Truth.

Spicy: Alright, do you have a crush on anyone in this room?

Catalina: *is unfazed by question* Yes, I do.

Catalina: Um, Dr., Marv, was it?  Truth or dare?

Dr. Marv: Truth. I prefer not to be commanded by other people.

Catalina: Do you know any other languages, aside from English?
Dr. Marv: I know C, C#
, Lua, and some Perl. I got bored of trying to learn PHP, and it’s just too unbearable in my opinion.

Catalina: Interesting…

Videm: Ooh, I know Lua! That’s what powers The Sandbox!

Dr. Marv: Truth or Dare, Videm.

Videm: I choose truth.

Dr. Marv: Ah, let’s see… I don’t know much about you, so I guess this is better than any other times I could know about you.

[Dr. Marv looks at Videm, thinking to himself.]

Dr. Marv: Let’s see… do you think you’re truly happy?

Videm: W—What?

Dr. Marv: Are you really happy?

[Alice and Vince join the people on the front porch.]

Vince: Hi!

Videm: Do I look like a walking zombie!? That sometimes happens, but if it does, make sure to stay away from my donuts. Things get real if you decide to touch my donut when I’m a walking zombie.

Vince: What?

[Videm chuckles, then frowns.]

Videm: Sometimes I miss my childhood, not caring about other people’s thoughts, not caring about how I feel and think. My child self was the best thing about myself. I think too much, and I feel like there’s nothing I could do about it.

[Videm sighs.]

Videm: I know growing old is mandatory, but growing old is optional, but I feel like there’s nothing I could do to stop me from being the person I wanted to be rather than the person I already was.

Dr. Marv: Marvelous speech, but, who is that behind you?

[They look behind Videm, seeing a little figure that quickly scatters back into the forest.]

Videm: Wait, what?!

[Videm looks back, but he is too late to sight the mysterious person.]

Videm: Are you guys pranking me or something?

[Dr. Marv stands up from his chair, running down the porch and into the forest.]

Spicy: Huh?

[Spicy and Zeke stand up and follow Dr. Marv.]

Alice: Where are they going?

Videm: God dangit guys, don’t leave me!

[Videm quickly stands up and follows Catalina, Jeffrey, Alice, Omar, and Vince.]

[Morris comes outside on the front porch, looking confused.]

Morris: Where did they go?
[The gang runs along the forest path, shouting to Dr. Marv.]

Videm: It was probably a bear or something!

Dr. Marv: Trust me, I know a bear when I see one, I was part of the Biolab in Black Mesa.

Catalina: Just curious, but, how old are you?

Dr. Marv: I’m no less than 40.

Vince: So, sixty?

Dr. Marv: Close enough.

Vince: So, one hundred?

Videm: Be quiet Vince D:<

[Dr. Marv stops, which causes the others to also stop.]

Videm: What are we stopping for?

Dr. Marv: I hear crunching of the leaves.

[The gang listens closely, the crunching is getting louder and louder, and suddenly the figure is revealed to be Kitten.]

Announcer: AND NOW BACK TO WORLD DANGERS

Kitten: Well, hello there, father.

Videm: Kitten, w… how did you get here!?

Dr. Marv: This is your daughter?

Zeke: Wait, Videm has a daughter…?

Vince: Well, it’s really confusing. Videm, explain.

Kitten: I came for revenge, for wrath. I still envy you and Abby.

Vince: Well fine then Kitten. *snaps*

Alice: Is it really her again?

[Kitten glares at Alice.]

Kitten: Yes, it’s me! You act like you’ve never seen me before!

Dr. Marv: I’m confused, what exactly is the story between you and Kitten, Videm?

[Videm sighs.]

Videm: I’ll explain it later.

[Videm looks back at Kitten.]

Videm: You’re not welcome here, Kitten. You’ve caused enough trouble.

Kitten: I’ve caused enough trouble?! That’s pathetic, and so are you!

[Videm grunts, turning and walking back to the mansion.]

Spicy: Come on, Zeke.  Let’s go.

Zeke: Yeah.

[Zeke and Spicy go back to the mansion.]

Vince: Come on Alice, let’s follow everyone else.

Alice: Alright.

[Vince and Alice head back to the mansion along with everyone else.]

Catalina: I should be heading back to my room.

[Catalina heads back to her room.]

Omar: Whatever.

[Omar follows the group, as well as Jeffrey, leaving Dr. Marv and Kitten alone.]

Dr. Marv: Do tell me the past, and you may have an ally.

[Dr. Marv turns away, taking a deep breath, then heads back to the mansion.]

[Videm sighs as he picks at his food.]

Dr. Marv: So… I’ve researched many things for a possibly new invention.

Videm: That’s… interesting…

[Dr. Marv looks concerned about Videm.]

Dr. Marv: Just what is the backstory of you and your daughter?

Videm: I don’t want to talk about it.

[The group awkwardly eats their food, with the exception of Vince usually gobbling down on his meal. Once they are done, they all go back to their rooms.]

[Spicy sits on the bed while Zeke undresses to his boxers.]

Spicy: What are you doing?

Zeke: I always sleep in my boxers…

Spicy: No you don’t…

Zeke: Well, now I do.

Spicy: Okay, then…

Zeke: Wait, that girl… Kitten… was she who they were talking about on the plane?

Spicy: The transgendered person they were talking about?

Zeke: Yeah.

Spicy: Yeah.

Zeke: Oh, okay…

Spicy: Oh, yeah…

[Spicy stands, then walks to the closet.]

Spicy: What should I wear tomorrow?

Zeke: Wear a white shirt with something under it, and then wear whatever pants.

Spicy: Okay, thanks.

[Spicy takes out a white t-shirt and a gray shirt that goes to the knees, and a pair of black pants.]

Zeke: Cute.

Spicy: Cute?

Zeke: The outfit, not you.

Spicy: Excuse you.

Zeke: Go to bed, it’s late.

Spicy: You go to bed.

[Spicy turns out the light, and the two go to bed.]

[In Catalina and Alice’s room, the two are getting ready for bed.]

Catalina: Do you have any toothpaste?  For some reason, this room didn’t come with any…

Alice: I always come prepared!

[Alice brings out a huge bag and takes out a tube of toothpaste.]

Catalina: Thank you!

[Catalina leaves the room and goes to the bathroom to brush her teeth.  She returns.]

Alice: That costs $500.

Catalina: Huh?

Alice: Just kidding. *smiles*

Catalina: Oh. *chuckles*

Alice: Anyway, what would you like to do?

Catalina: I dunno, I’m probably just going to go to sleep.

Alice: Well, then I shall go brush my teeth and head to bed as well.

[Catalina lays on the bed and falls asleep.]

Alice: Good night.

[Videm and Dr. Marv are both on their computers, working on their own thing.]

Dr. Marv: Are you still sensitive about the subject of you and your daughter?

[Videm responds with a murmur.]

Dr. Marv: I didn’t quite catch that-

Videm: Look, I know. As a scientist, you want to observe and collect information, but the story between me and Kitten should only be kept between the family.

Dr. Marv: Right, I’m sorry…

[Videm bites his lip, turning to Dr. Marv, then sighing.]

Videm: N…no, I’m sorry. I shouldn’t have been so mean to you. I just wanted to have this vacation to be away from her, but I feel further away from her the closer she tries to get to me.

Dr. Marv: What do you mean?

Videm: Her desire for revenge is stronger than my intellectuality.

[Videm yawns.]

Videm: Well, I’m tired. Good night.

Dr. Marv: Night.

[Videm begins to sleep in the bed, while Dr. Marv is still typing on the computer. He hums, looking back at Videm, then back to the computer, typing “Fishtrought Mansion” into Google. He scrolls, then clicks, quietly observing the text on the screen. Dr. Marv yawns, then logs out of his computer.]

Outro

[Kitten is sitting back against the stiff trunk, looking up at the glimmering stars. She sighs, picking up and examining rocks. She throws it at the path through which the group had come to see her. She gets up, then walks along the pathway, with her hair swaying around, then reaches the mansion’s front porch. She stands there with her eyes squinted, and her brows putting the final piece of showing her angry face. She sneakily walks into the mansion, then the camera pans over the mansion that had its final lights turned off.]


Episode 3 - The Past of Pure Darkness

Dr. Marv: Get up everyone! Rise and shine!

[Dr. Marv flicks his remote which turns on all the lights in the rooms.]

Spicy: Huh?  Who turned the lights on…?

[Zeke is still sleeping.]

Spicy: Zeke, wake up…

[Spicy rocks Zeke’s body back and forth, making him come alive.]

Zeke: Huh…?

Spicy: Get dressed, I think it’s morning…

[Videm walks out of his room.]

Videm: Dr. Marv? What’s the meaning of this? I’m trying to go to sleep!

Dr. Marv: A newcomer.

Videm: Already? How is that possible?

[The group eventually meets in the main hall of the mansion, looking at the front door where there stands the new person.]

Vince: Hi Sam! :D

Zeke: Who is he?

Sam: I’m a train.

Videm: And I’m an airplane. Good to see you, Sam.

Spicy: His name is Sam, he was a friend who helped us before.

Catalina: Hi, Sam!  Long time no see!

Sam: Oh hi Catalina!

Vince: So, Sam, how are you?

Sam: Good, I guess. Totally wasn’t involved in a train wreck.

Morris: A newcomer?  How curious.

Videm: Alright, well, I guess we should introduce him to the heavenly meals.

Catalina: That sounds like a wonderful idea!

Sam: TRAIN SHAPED PANCAKES, I mean what.

Morris: Alright, head to the refectory and breakfast shall be served.

[All of them head to the dining room, where Sam is surprised by the quality of the meal, when all of a sudden, one of the chef came out of the kitchen, screaming with terror, which startles everyone.]

Videm: Whoa, whoa. What’s going on!?

Chef: I saw it! I SAW IT!

Dr. Marv: Saw what?
Sam: ARE THE PANCAKES GONE?

Chef: Worse! MUCH worse! I saw the book!

Vince: What book?

[The Chef turns to Vince with big eyes.]

Chef: Long ago, a book with dark magic came into this mansion, and almost demolished it!

Dr. Marv: That’s quite intriguing.

Sam: I knew Harry Potter was real!

Vince: This shit is bananas, b-a-n-a-n-a-s.

Videm: Mmm… Potassium.

Dr. Marv: K.

Chef: You have to come. The only way to destroy this book is by a person of pure darkness.

Sam: B-b-ut the pancake- wait did you say darkness? Yep, Omar has this in the bag.

Zeke: Pure darkness?

Dr. Marv: Does killing test subjects count as darkness?

Catalina: Does stealing from the rich count as darkness?

[Another chef brings out the book, holding it with tongs.]

Chef: You’re a mad man, Dave! Why did you bring it out here!?

[Dave backs away slowly with the book.]

Dave: Sorry, Dale…

Dale: Anyways, darkness is not greed or envy, darkness is having passion for denying the light.

Sam: What about making a train wreck and then making 5 more wreck- I mean what?

Spicy: Do we know anyone with pure darkness, though?

Dr. Marv: Would Kitten count?

Videm: He said denying the light, not envy.

Dale: You guys are the only ones who can do something about this, and if you don’t, this whole mansion will CRUMBLE upon all of us!… No pressure!

Videm: Oh yeah, I can already feel no pressure :l

Sam: Don’t worry, I can’t feel pressure anymore.

[Dale runs back into the kitchen, yelling a few words to the other chefs.]

Catalina: Just when I thought this was going to be a normal vacation…

Videm: So, uh… I’m gonna be in my room, because I have to do something…

Dr. Marv: I’ll follow…

[Videm and Dr. Marv walk back to their rooms, leaving Spicy, Zeke, Omar, Vince, Alice, Catalina, and Sam.]

Catalina: What now, guys?

Alice: I’m just as confused as you are.

Spicy: Someone with pure darkness, huh?

Vince: It’s obviously Gwen Stefani. Her sh is bananas.

Zeke: Huh?

Sam: I got this, um, ADAM LEVINE!

Vince: Pharrell Williams! He must be saying that he’s happy to cover-up his dark background.

Zeke: Are you guys actually trying to contribute?

Spicy: Maybe we could find someone in our past who fits the bill?

Sam: Joe the chicken! Right?!

Spicy: I don’t think so…

Catalina: What about… that one guy that we met in New York?  That guy who kidnapped Alice and I?

Alice: Oh I hated him.

Catalina: Yeah, I know.  But, I’d say he’s pretty evil…

Spicy: What happened to him?  I can’t remember.

Vince: I don’t know. We saw him again, and then he disappeared again.

Sam: Maybe he became a train driver and he ran into me which ended in his death.

Catalina: Wait, I think I remember.  He was slapped by that Chinese girl, and… he disappeared after we were distracted by something.

Sam: What were we distracted by?

Vince: It doesn’t really matter, Sam.

Spicy: So, are we deciding that guy has the purest darkness?

Catalina: I believe so.

Spicy: Okay, how are we going to get into contact with him?  He mysteriously disappeared.

Sam: Track him down with the power of the INTERNET!

Spicy: I don’t think we’re just going to find him randomly on the internet…

[Sam pops open his laptop and starts searching for that random guy.]
Sam: Oo what about his face?
Spicy: I can’t remember what he looked like.

Zeke: Does anyone have photographic memory or something?

Sam: I have a question, where am I putting all my junk?

Spicy: What do you mean?

Sam: Totally didn’t bring like 500000 bags full of random things

Zeke: Okay, I guess I’m being ignored…

Vince: Like what?

Sam: Mysterious things.

Zeke: I guess we’ve gotten off topic, then…

Catalina: Everyone!  Focus!

Zeke: Right, so does anyone who has seen this guy remember his face?

Vince: I have, it’s like Howie Mandel!

Sam: Who’s that? Wait, is that that guy from that one show?

Vince: Yeah, from Deal or No Deal and America’s Got Talent.

Catalina: I remember it now!

Sam: Oh yay!

Spicy: John!  That was his name!  I remember it now!

[Sam types “John” into his laptop.]

Vince: You’re not going to get any results.

Sam: Oh really? Because now we are down to about 5,800,000 people.

Vince: Hmm… search up his company, Broadway Stars.

[Sam types in “Broadway Stars”.]

Sam: Uh, what the heck is this?

Omar: Your mom!

Spicy: Click on the “Contact us” tab thing…

[Sam clicks the tab and a phone number pops up with an email following it.]

Catalina: Let’s call the number and see if we get an answer, maybe?

Alice: We should try that.

Sam: What if he recognizes our voices? Maybe an email will be better?

Zeke: He wouldn’t recognize my voice.

Sam: That’s true. Plus, the internet is useless when it comes to emails. No one ever responds.

Vince: To you.

Jeffrey: *in whisper* Ohh burnnnn…

[Zeke gets out his phone, and puts in the number.]

Zeke: Should I put it on speaker?

Sam: Uh, sure.

[Zeke presses the call button, and puts it on speaker.]

Front-desk lady: Hello? Who is this currently?

Zeke: Is this Broadway Stars?

Front-desk lady: No, this is Starbucks.

Zeke: Oh, okay, I’d like a vanilla frappuccino, please.

Front-desk lady: Please tell us your address so that we may deliver the coffee.

Zeke: Okay, it’s 567 I’m Not An Idiot Drive.

Front-desk lady: Your vanilla frappuccino will be ready in a few moments.

Zeke: Could you please put your boss on the phone?

Front-desk lady: Sorry. My boss is currently out right now.

Zeke: Where is your location?

Front-desk lady: 765 I’m Dead Lane.

Zeke: Alright.

[Zeke hangs up.]

Spicy: I say we go to New York and get to the bottom of this.

Vince: Aw, I wanted a hot chocolate! D:

Jeffrey: And I need a frap!

Sam: It wasn’t really Starbucks. She was kidding around.

Jeffrey: Do you think I don’t know that? We live on 567 I'm Not An Idiot Drive for a reason.

[Morris enters the room.]

Morris: I apologize for the inconvenience, but you can not leave the island.

Catalina: Why not!?

Morris: It’s difficult to explain.

Sam: It’s okay guys, I got this.
[Sam calls his train company.]
Mr. Train: Hello? Sir, is that you?

Sam: Can we get a train over here?
Mr. Train: No, the tracks aren’t finished yet stupid.
Sam: RUDE!
[Sam hangs up on Mr. Train.]

Spicy: Well, what now?

Zeke: I’m out of ideas.

Sam: I’ll be right back, I need to fire someone.
[Sam leaves the room and contacts Mr. Train again.]
Catalina: I suggest we take a break.

Spicy: Alright, let’s all go back to our rooms for now.

Vince: Agreed.

[Everyone goes back to their rooms.]

ON THE NEXT EPISODE OF CONFUSION, AFTER WORLD DANGERS!

Announcer: AND NOW WE’RE BACK TO WORLD DANGERS

[Videm lies on the bed, whilst Dr. Marv is typing like a maniac on his computer. Videm throws a ball up in the air, then catches it, then throws it again.]

Videm: You know, I was being quite rude when I didn’t want to talk about my backstory. I should’ve been more respectful of you as a roommate.

[Dr. Marv suddenly stops typing, then looks down on his keyboard with his hands on his laps.]

Dr. Marv: I… I’m glad you apologized. I’m sorry for being invasive of your personal life as well.

Videm: Ah, I got used to it when I got to be friends with Spicy.

[They both chuckle.]

Videm: Well, a good friend of mine, Abigail Williamson, and I were very close. Infact, we were so close that we managed to make a baby, and so we first named her Tabby. However, the real Kitten got in the way of our family, and managed to break the seal of another dimension. Well, he was arguing with me, and got really mad at me. This caused all of the group to go into that dimension, except Abby, me, and the baby. Abby and I didn’t know what to do, but then the wind forced us to fall into the dimension, all except the baby.

Dr. Marv: This is interesting, but really confusing…

Videm: It’s confusing to me as well. Anyway, somehow only me and Abby were the only ones who remembered going into this dimension and everything that had happened in the other dimension, and Kitten had somehow become our baby. Abby and I agreed to keep the other dimension a secret, and as for Kitten, we took care of her until she was a pre-teen. One day, we were walking in the park, when suddenly a rift to the other dimension appeared. The only thing I could think of to save Kitten was to kill her, so I tried to kill her, but I failed, and she escaped. I’m not sure where she went off to, but wherever she went, she managed to get more corrupt than she already was.

Dr. Marv: Wow, so that explains her hatred for you…

[Videm sighs, out of both relief and sadness.]

Videm: Yeah, there was nothing I could do other than to fight back. She never believed I tried to save her…

[Kitten suddenly comes out of the door, having heard everything, standing there shocked. Videm and Dr. Marv are startled by her appearance.]

Kitten: W… what!?

Videm: Kitten! W… how… how did you get in here!?

[Kitten bites her lips as she shakes her head.]

Kitten: All this time, you were only trying to protect me?

Videm: That’s true, and all this time I was trying to tell you…

Kitten: I was so ignorant…

[Kitten looks down, but then looks up in realization of something.]

Kitten: Do we want to escape this dimension?

Videm: I don’t think we can, and I don’t think we should, because the old dimension is now full of evil things.

Kitten: Well, this sucks…

Dr. Marv: How do you know the old dimension is corrupted?

Videm: I saw someone in all crimson, with strange words filling my ears like water, and she casted a spell that made the world full of darkness and fire.

Dr. Marv: Interesting…

[Kitten stares at Videm.]

Kitten: So, where do I stay?

Videm: You can go into the orange room, the room at the very end of the hall to the left, for now. Morris, our butler, doesn’t know you’re here, so make sure to make very little noise. I’ll bring you the meals from the dining hall, but I won’t guarantee it, as Morris is very aware of things.

Kitten: Sounds like a great plan.

Dr. Marv: How long do we have until we leave this mansion?

Videm: I remember the pamphlet saying we could stay all summer, and we had nothing to do at the start of the summer, so I guess we should stay all summer.

[Spicy and Zeke enter their room.  Spicy collapses on the bed.]

Zeke: Spicy, you okay?

Spicy: To be honest, no, I’m not okay.

Zeke: You were fine earlier…

Spicy: I didn’t want to show my stress in front of everyone…

Zeke: But you’re okay with showing your stress in front of me?

Spicy: Of course, you’re my best friend…

[Zeke awkwardly sits beside Spicy.]

Zeke: I’m not good at being conversational…

Spicy: It’s okay. *chuckles softly*

[The two sit in awkward silence.]

Spicy: Thanks for being a, uh, friend…

Zeke: Y-yeah, right…

[Spicy’s mood suddenly changes.]

Spicy: You don’t have to be all awkward about it, dumbo.

Zeke: Why are you calling me a dumbo!?

Spicy: I dunno…

[Spicy laughs, and Zeke sits awkwardly.]

[There’s a knock on the door.]

Zeke: I’ll get it.

[Zeke opens the door, to find Omar.]

Omar: I found something.

Zeke: Oh?  I’ll call everyone.

Omar: Oh, no, don’t.

Zeke: Huh?

Omar: I found a secret door in the guy’s shower.

Spicy: Why don’t you want to call everyone?

Omar: I don’t know if it’s serious.

Zeke: Okay, lead us to it.

[The three go into the men’s bathroom and go to the farthest shower in the bathroom.]

Omar: This is the one.

[Zeke walks in and inspects the walls.]

Spicy: Did you find anything?

Zeke: Yeah, there’s a loose wall segment here…

[Zeke takes the loose wall segment off, and looks inside.]

Zeke: There’s a room in here…

Omar: Let’s go in.

Spicy: It doesn’t seem safe…

Zeke: Come on, I won’t let you get hurt.

Omar: GAY

[The three go into the room.]

Spicy: It’s so dark in here

Zeke: Someone just touched my crotch…

Spicy: That was probably me, sorry.

[A light is turned on by Omar.  In the room is a desk pushed against the farthest wall, and on it were a messy pile of photos, on these photos were two strange men but Omar ignores these photos and decides to wipe them off the desk.]

Spicy: So, it’s nothing but an abandoned room?  No secrets?

Zeke: It looks like it.

Omar: Yes.

Spicy: Oh well, let’s just go back to our rooms.  We can continue our investigations sometime later.

[The three go back to their rooms.]

[At dinner, the Book of Pure Darkness is in the fireplace, as an attempt to burn it.]

Dale: Dammit! What the hell is this book made of?

Videm: Dark magic, obviously.

Dale: Have you guys even found the person with pure darkness, yet?

Spicy: We believe we have an idea, but it’d be impossible to get to him, so we’ve basically made no progress.

Morris: Are you referring to John?

Spicy: Yes.

Dale: John? I recall hearing a John.

Catalina: You have?

Dale: Yes… yes. I think he’s one of the builders of this mansion.

Spicy: A builder of this mansion?  How is that possible?

Dale: He was a good friend of the mansion owner, and was one of the sons of Morris.

All at once: WHAT!?

[Videm does a spit take, and so does Dr. Marv.]

Dr. Marv: Just a hypothesis, so if John built this mansion, and he was your enemy, then he could kick us out at any time, right?

Videm: That’s a good hypothesis, but does he know we’re here?

Dr. Marv: That’s the point, we don’t know if he’s watching us at this very moment.

Zeke: It would explain why that lady who picked up the phone was acting so strangely…

Dale: I doubt John has the power to boot you guys out, I wouldn’t worry too much about John.

Videm: Ah, what a relief.

Morris: I believe you all should go to bed at this time, then.

Videm: Wait, I have a question, Morris. Do you know where your son is?

Morris: I apologize, but I am not permitted to share the knowledge I know.

Dr. Marv: Understandable, in some ways.

Videm: *yawn* Well, I’ll be going to bed now, but I wanna finish my meal in my bedroom.

Morris: You barely touched anything on your plate, though…

Videm: Well… I’m not that hungry…

[Videm excuses himself, Morris looking at him strangely, but quickly disregards it as the Book of Pure Darkness grows a purple aura around it.]

Zeke: Huh?  Hey guys, the book…

Dale: Oh lordy…

[The room suddenly starts shaking, getting violent as it goes on.]

Dale: WE’VE GOT TO EVACUATE EVERYONE!

[Everybody all panicked as they ran, screaming their heads off, and going to the exit, but before they went through the exit, Catalina interrupted them.]

Catalina: Wait!  Where’s Videm!?

Videm: Don’t worry! I’m here!

[Videm says this as he runs downstairs with Kitten, holding her hand.]

Kitten: What’s going on!?

Dale: Who the hell are you!?

Videm: I’ll explain it later, just go!

[They all run through the exit, but suddenly everything turns black, and they all start falling indefinitely.]

Videm: Not again!

Announcer: AND NOW BACK TO WORLD DANGERS

Videm: So, now what?

[Dr. Marv observes all around the area, but sees only the group in their falling position.]

Dr. Marv: I just realized, where’s Morris?

Catalina: He was with us, wasn’t he?

Kitten: I just hope he hasn’t seen me.

Videm: Wait, I see light below us!

[The group screams as the light grows bigger, and eventually sucks them out of the endless void, and puts them into a strange cave.]

Videm: Ugh… where are we?

[Around the circular, rocky cave lie a few discharged portals that face towards the center of the cave, where a strange symbol is carved into. On the strange symbol stands Morris, looking taller and sleeker than ever. He stares down at them with his lips raised a little, and his hands behind his back.]

Morris: So, you’ve finally found it…

Videm: What is this place?!

Morris: Welcome to the Cavern of the Pure.

Dale: What the hell?…

Dr. Marv: You took those words right out of my mouth…

[The group observes the place.]

Dale: Jesus Christ! Is this a portal to Hell?

Morris: Welcome to the last part of the tour…

Videm: No wonder you were so secretive and acted strange.

Morris: That’s correct…

Catalina: Why?  Why are you doing this?

Morris: You see, you’re not really here for a vacation.  You’re here to fulfill something of a great magnitude that you may never realize.

Videm: What, are we gonna be superheroes? Are we gonna have costumes!? :D

Morris: No, you are going to be beneficial to this world, but you aren’t exactly what one would call “superheroes”.

Dr. Marv: What do each of these portals lead to?

[Dr. Marv says this as he feels and observes the portal made out of metal.]

Morris: Each portal leads to a dimension where an antagonist of great threat will reside.  Your job is to stop each and every one of them.

Videm: You expect us to save the world?—actually… we already have done that, haven’t we?

Spicy: Yeah!

Morris: However, there’s a catch.  Once you defeat the villain as a group, one of you that is somehow linked to the villain will be sent to a special arena to fight them in.

Dr. Marv: How will we be able to come here again?

Morris: In the mansion, there is a secret room with a portal.  It’s in the playroom behind the fireplace.  The portal will lead you here again, and the portal here will lead you back to the mansion, by way of the front porch.

Dale: This would be crazier than the second coming of Jesus!

Videm: Should we head back, then?

Morris: That would be a great idea, as it is past the usual time of when you’ll be in your rooms sleeping.

[The group heads back to the mansion and into their rooms.]

[Videm and Dr. Marv are tired, so they go to sleep right away. So do Omar, Jeffrey, Vince, Alice, and Catalina.]

[Spicy immediately goes to sleep, but Zeke is on his laptop, contemplating what had just happened while staring at the Google search page.  After five minutes of this, he gives up and goes to sleep.]

Outro

[The Book of Pure Darkness still holds a purple aura around it. A strange voice comes out of it.]

???: A’ff…  v’’ee, UUU’,,…


Episode 4 - Fifty Depths of Dark

[The group is standing on the front porch, waiting for the newcomers. In the meantime, Kitten is drawing something, Dr. Marv is writing down things, Videm is pondering, Zeke and Spicy are awkwardly talking, Catalina is silently looking at her whip and her knife collection, and the others are playing Go Fish.]

Videm: I see them! They’re here!

[Two people are in the distance, walking towards the mansion.]

Videm: Minami and some other person I don’t know!

[Minami does the up-nod signaling that he acknowledges his friends.]

Strange Robot: Hello.

Morris: Greetings, new guests.  I will take your suitcases and bring them to your room.

[Morris picks up Minami’s case, but struggles to carry the robot’s suitcase.]

Morris: It’s none of my business, but this is quite a heavy case!

Strange Robot: I appreciate your classiness.

[Minami and the Strange Robot are escorted to their rooms.]

Videm: Alright, who stole my donut?!

Dr. Marv: I don’t eat donuts.

Videm: Spicy, did you do it!?

Spicy: No, I’m on a strict no-donut diet, put in place by Zeke.

Videm: Zeke, you took it for Spicy’s protection, didn’t you?

Zeke: No, I did not.

Videm: Omar!

[Omar sits there with a donut in his hands.]

Omar: Uh… I didn’t do it, I swear!

Videm: Give it back!

Omar: I didn’t do it! How do you know I have a donut!?

Dr. Marv: Videm’s not an idiot, he can see it right in your hands.

Omar: Fine…

[Omar hands the donut back to Videm, but it is all moldy and looks like a cat ate it.]

Videm: Uh… you can have it back, I think I’ll go get a donut myself.

[Videm gets up from his chair, then leaves for the kitchen. Kitten is laughing at Omar.]

Omar: What!? Why are you laughing at me?

Kitten: You’re so funny, That’s why!

Omar: Really? Do you think so?

Kitten: Why would I be laughing if I didn’t say so?

[Morris comes out of the doorway, running like a butler to chase down a random creature with 9 legs. Dr. Marv is the only one not startled by this.]

Dr. Marv: Pfft, I’ve seen worse.

Zeke: What the hell is that thing!?

Morris: I’m not sure!  The cursed thing randomly came out of the fireplace while I was reading!

Dr. Marv: Don’t worry, I can catch this thing.

[Dr. Marv pulls out a portal gun, then pulls out a container with white gel. He puts the white gel onto a gravity gun, shooting it out in front of the creature, then shooting a blue portal at the spilled gel, then another portal on the wall of the mansion.]

Dr. Marv: I’m surprised this gun works with the walls of the mansion. Oh well, I’m sure the scientist that made it possible was probably fired by Cave Johnson.

[Dr. Marv jumps through the portal, catching the creature with the portal gun.]

Catalina: Ooh, where can I get one of those?

Dr. Marv: Well, this Aperture Science Handheld Device is an invention by Cave Johnson, so I believe this is the only copy left. You can use mine for now, however. Just be careful.

[Dr. Marv hands the portal gun to Catalina.]

Catalina: Sweet!

Morris: I have utmost gratitude for your assistance.  Now, we must discover where this… thing… came from.

Dr. Marv: You can borrow my life analyzer, I’m too busy with all this paperwork.

[Dr. Marv gives Morris the life analyzer. Morris analyzes the thing while it is still being gravitated by the portal gun. Catalina stretches her arm away from the creature, as she allows Morris to analyze it.]

Morris: Oh my, it came from there!?

Zeke: Came from where?

Morris: The DEEP DARK!

[Videm comes in right when Morris says that. He stares at the Portal gun and Catalina, then at Morris analyzing the creature.]

Videm: Uh… what’d I miss?

[Videm, Spicy, Dr. Marv, Morris, Zeke, Catalina, Vince, Alice, Jeffrey and Minami venture into the Deep Dark together. They are walking all around the place, not knowing where they are going. They had flashlights, but even that didn’t help.]

Videm: It’s so dark, I got mixed up with a rock and my donut! Two very different things, I’m gonna say at the very least… my teeth still hurt from that :(

Dr. Marv: I don’t hear anything in particular. Are you sure it came from here?

Morris: I’m absolutely positive.  Unless Black Mesa screwed up again, which would not be surprising by a long shot.

[Dr. Marv chuckles, but then stands still in shock.]

Dr. Marv: Did you hear something?

Videm: I think that was a rock again, dangit!

Dr. Marv: No, no! I mean I heard crawling!

Zeke: Spicy, did you touch my crotch again?

Spicy: I swear it wasn’t me this time!

Zeke: Then… who was it?

Morris: Look, behind you!

[Zeke turns around, and is shocked by the bigger version of the creature captured by Dr. Marv. Videm drops his donut in surprise, Minami gasps, and Dr. Marv and Catalina don't react at all.]

Videm: RUN!

[The group runs from the giant beast that dashes towards them like a boulder.]

Videm: I’ve got this! I’ve played enough Geometry Dash to calculate each ju-

[Videm trips over a small rock.]

Videm: OW! Well… I tried.

[The beast stops on top of Videm, Videm tries crawling back, but the beast gets closer. Catalina then jumps to Videm, saving him from his ultimate doom, and they begin to run again.]

Videm: Oh, thank you for saving me from my stupidity!

Catalina: Don’t mention it!

[They suddenly stop at a dead end, looking back at the beast that had to be half the size of the mansion.]

Morris: Oh dear, does anyone have a plan?

Dr. Marv: Hold on, I’ve got a cheap way out!

[Dr. Marv shoots his portal gun behind the creature, and then on the cave wall. The group follows him right as the beast rammed into the dead end.]

Videm: Haha! See ya later whatever the hell you are!

Minami: It sure was lucky that there was a portal surface down in that cave.

Dr. Marv: Yeah, it’s strange how there was a portal surface in the cave, but oh well, I’m certainly not complaining.

[The group runs to the exit of the cave, then climbs up the ladder.]

ON THE NEXT EPISODE OF CONFUSION, AFTER WORLD DANGERS!

Announcer: AND NOW WE’RE BACK TO WORLD DANGERS

[Meanwhile Kitten, Omar, and the Strange Robot are exploring around the mansion.]

Kitten: This is an odd mansion, I mean, look at this painting!

[Kitten points at a painting displaying two faces with no eyes that are stuck together.]

Omar: Yes, strange.

Strange Robot: Indeed.

[Kitten leads the way, as they enter through a strange door that leads downstairs.]

Kitten: I bet you that this is the dungeon, where all the dead bodies are!

Omar: Oh god no!

Strange Robot: That seems horribly inaccurate.

Kitten: Mansions are ancient, so they should have some medieval aspects, right?

Strange Robot: Are you thinking of castles?

Kitten: Oh, right… anyway, let’s go!

[The group goes down the stairs slowly, looking all around. The Strange Robot switches his flashlight on, looking directly at the metal door. Kitten grasps her hands onto the cold, rusty doorknob, turns it, then carefully pushes it. Inside is a big, spherical room full of many things ranging from an ancient globe, to a grand clock. On the ceiling hangs a few letters and documents, and in the middle of the ceiling a light shines down through a window and onto a strange symbol on the floor. It is a big mess.]

Kitten: Wow, this place is HUGE, but disgusting… what is that smell?

Omar: It’s not me!

Strange Robot: I believe she was talking about the room, not you.

Omar: Oh.

[Kitten looks at one of the ancient documents, as if she were trying to get something out of it.]

Strange Robot: I recall these documents having aged 500 years back.
Kitten: If only I knew how to read… whatever language this document is in.

[The Strange Robot takes the document from Kitten’s hands, then scans it.]

Strange Robot: It is a diary of a young man who had a day where he had his minions to get more than 500 coconuts.

Omar: Yes… juicy coconuts.

Kitten: That’s weird… to both Omar and the document.

[The Strange Robot looks around, examining every single document he could uncover.]

Strange Robot: I’ve pieced most of the puzzle of the mansion’s backstory.

Kitten: Well… what are you waiting for?

Strange Robot: There are too many to tell, go into my directory to find information by each section.

Kitten: Uh… how?
[The Strange Robot’s screen, originally displaying his face, switches to a new screen where there are sections reading “Family”, to “War”.]

Kitten: Wow, you’re really useful!

[Kitten then touches “War”, which switches the screen to another directory. She then touches “Mr. Kollingsburg”, and it displays a new screen full of text and pictures of an old man with blue eyes.]

Kitten: Mr. Kollingsburg… good friend… destroyed core…

Omar: That’s BORING!

Strange Robot: Are you satisfied with the amount of information you have?

Kitten: Yeah… there’s nothing interesting at all. Come on, let’s go.

[The Strange Robot switches the screen back to his face, then walks along with Kitten and Omar. Suddenly, however, the ground rumbles beneath them.]

Kitten: What’s going on!? HURRY, TO THE EXIT!

[The three run as fast as they can, but the exit is blocked by debris that falls out of nowhere.]

Kitten: Dammit! Unblock this fucking door!

Strange Robot: Ammunition Storage is currently at 0%, restocking essential for action.

[Kitten slams at the debris, but it doesn't budge. The ground slowly ripples, as the beast that was in the caves comes up from the ground.]

Omar: Holy SHIT!

Strange Robot: Species unknown, found update. Would you like to—

Kitten: SHUT UP! We’re about to get eaten alive and you’re asking for an update?!

[The beast gets closer and closer to them, glaring with black eyes, and it snarls malevolently, putting its legs up onto the walls of the basement. They all scream in panic, except the Strange Robot.]

Kitten: Robot guy, break down the doors with your mechanical fists!

Strange Robot: Unknown command, please connect to the internet to use /help.

Kitten: GAH! Omar, do something!

Omar: I don’t know what to do!

[The beast suddenly swipes its arms towards the three. Kitten and Omar duck, while the Strange Robot pushes against the arm.]

Kitten: Where’s that damn robot!?

Strange Robot: The debris has been abolished, evacuate yourselves.

Kitten: What about you!?

Strange Robot: I am a robot. I am able to defeat this beast by myself.

[The Kitten looks at the Strange Robot, then at the exit. She takes Omar’s hands and runs towards the exit, running up the stairs and out of the basement.]

Videm: KITTEN! KITTEN! Where are you!?

Kitten: Videm! Look, you might not believe us, but a huge beast just fucked up the basement!

Dr. Marv: It must’ve been the beast that attacked us back in the Deep Dark.

[Vince and Alice enter the room.]

Vince: Gwen Stefani is bae. Her sh is bananas, B-A-N-A-N-A-S!

Videm: Where’d you come from!?

Vince: I haven’t had screen time all episode. About time I appear. *snaps*

[Catalina enters the room.]

Catalina: Huh?  What’s going on?

Alice: Hi, Catalina.

Kitten: There was a beast that literally ripped through the ground of the basement, and now the robot that came here is still down there fighting it!

[Suddenly, the Strange Robot opens the door, wiping off the dust that was on his metal chest, then closes the door from behind. He then holds a rock piece similar to the one Videm found in the orange room.]

Strange Robot: The creature has been terminated, and I have found a ciphered rock piece.

Videm: That looks like the rock piece I found from before.

Morris: That’s interesting…
Dr. Marv: Uh… yeah… interesting…

[The bell rings, indicating lunch time.]

Videm: Oh, I’m not hungry…

Dr. Marv: Neither am I. Don’t worry about me, I’ve stayed long enough in the Aperture Science hotels to resist food.

Vince: Lunch!

Sam: I’m not hungry either. Well, except for that infinite craving for train pancakes.

Vince: You haven’t even done anything, Sam, and neither have I :D

[Several people go to lunch while the others head back to their rooms.]

~Refectory~

Sam: Mmm train pancakes, why must I always eat them.

Zeke: Why do you like train shaped pancakes so much?

Sam: Who doesn’t love pancakes and trains?

Zeke: A lot of people.
Sam: Do you have proof of that?

Zeke: Well, not with me, but I know it’s true.

Sam: Hmm, good enough for me.

Catalina: I wonder when we’re going to start going into those portals.

[Morris enters the room.]

Morris: Your first task shall be appointed tomorrow.

Catalina: Oh, how convenient.

Sam: What portals?

Vince: Oh wow, now you ask that.

Zeke: Y’know, those portals that Morris talked about when we were in that cave?  Or were you not there?

Sam: Uh, I might have been playing Rocket League in my room, so more than likely I wasn’t there.

Catalina: Well, I’m sure you’ll figure it out tomorrow.

Sam: When is tomorrow?

Zeke: Tomorrow is tomorrow, the day after today, y’know?

[Later that night, after they finish dinner, they go back to their rooms to get ready for bed.]

[As Spicy gets ready for bed, Zeke is on his laptop.  Spicy throws a pair of underwear at Zeke.]

Zeke: Why… did you…?

Spicy: You seemed like an easy target, and that was the only ammo that I had.

Zeke: Take your dirty underwear back.

[Zeke throws the underwear back at them.]

Spicy: They’re not dirty… I had Catalina do our laundry.

Zeke: Why didn’t you just do it yourself?

Spicy: I’m lazy…

[Zeke shakes his head in disapproval, going back to his laptop.]

Spicy: What are you doing, anyway?

Zeke: Tumblr.

Spicy: Seriously?

Zeke: Why not?

Spicy: Oh, whatever.

[Spicy watches as Zeke scrolls down his Tumblr feed.]

Spicy: Oh, hey, look at that…

Zeke: Huh? *Zeke looks at the post*

Zeke: “Sometimes love is right next to you…”

Zeke: Okay, and?

[Spicy kisses Zeke, and the screen fades to black.]

[Omar goes to visit Vince, who is staring at a poster of Gwen Stefani.]

Omar: *knocks*

[Vince takes down the Gwen Stefani poster and runs to the door and opens it.]

Vince: Hi, Omar.

Omar: Hi, Vince.

Vince: So, um… you decided to visit me?

Omar: Yes.

Vince: Oh, you can come in if you want.

[Omar walks into Vince’s room.]

Vince: Hey, Jeffrey, we have company.

Jeffrey: Gurllll. I'm doing my thing right now.

Vince: Okay, so, Omar, what did you want to talk about?

Omar: I don’t even know.

Vince: Um… okay then?

Omar: I came for the booty.

Vince: Uh… okay then.

Omar: Is there something we can talk about?

Vince: Hm… isn’t it getting late?

Omar: It’s ten o’clock.

Vince: Well, I want some sleep, so, good night.

Omar: Good night.

[Omar leaves the room and Vince goes back to staring at his poster of Gwen Stefani.]

 [Dr. Marv is alone in his room, doing his usual work on the computer, while Videm goes to visit Catalina in the laundry room.]

Videm: Hi.

Catalina: Hi!

Videm: So, are you doing laundry?

Catalina: Yeah, I’ve decided to start doing laundry for people who want me to, since I have no clothes in my room except for Alice’s clothes.

Videm: Hey, uh… why exactly did Morris make us go down there?

Catalina: I’m not sure, but I found an aqua colored, heart-shaped crystal.

Videm: Interesting, can I see?

Catalina: Sure.

[Catalina fishes the crystal out of her pocket and hands it to Videm, who observes it carefully.]

Videm: I… I think I see something in there.

Catalina: You see something in there?

Videm: Yes, yes… I see a place full of stars and planets, I see the true beauty of space…

Catalina: Huh!?

Videm: But I also see a black hole… 

Catalina: Strange…

Videm: Well, that was interesting.

[Videm hands the heart crystal back to Catalina, who puts it back into her pocket.]

Videm: So… tomorrow’s the day, as I’ve heard.

Catalina: Yep.

Videm: So, the day after tomorrow, there’s a party that’s going to be thrown in the forest. I was wondering if you could come.

Catalina: A party in the forest?  I guess so, I have nothing better to do.

Videm: Nice. It’s going to be the last day of newcomers, so on that day the rest of our friends are going to come.

Catalina: Oh, cool!

Videm: Well, I guess I’ll be going to bed then. We’ve got a big day tomorrow, wait did I already say that? Hehe…

Catalina: Okay, I’ll be going to bed after this load is finished.

Videm: Goodbye.

Catalina: Bye-bye!

[Videm leaves.]

Outro

[Kitten is in her room, lying on the bed, thinking about things, when all of a sudden she hears a whisper.]

???: F’’w…  v’’ee… ‘ee,t ‘,v…

Kitten: What was that!? Why do you want me to do that!?

???: ‘e,,t v,’… p’ee!

Kitten: I can’t do anything like that! It would break this world…

???: ‘e…, F,’dee ‘,eev ,e’vf

Kitten: ‘eev, d’ee ‘ep,d ‘ee…

???: ‘ee,v… ‘,eev, ‘,vof

Kitten: Yes they are… they’re my friends…

[Kitten turns over, looking at a portrait of Videm and Abby she kept. Suddenly, a candle ignites in front of the portrait, burning it in the process.]


Episode 5 - The Great Space Race

Dr. Marv: Now I just gotta press this button, and…

[Suddenly, loud alarms blare all around the mansion, startling many people awake. Videm literally jumps out of his bed.]

Videm: AH! NOT THE WASPS—I mean… what's going on?

[Videm turns to Dr. Marv, who is standing in front of the bed.]

Dr. Marv (over the speaker): Rise and shine, ladies and gentlemen, and Kitten… it’s time to start a long day!

Vince: Morning already?

Videm: It’s not even 7:00 AM, I doubt the chefs are even up!

[Everybody goes into the dining hall to eat breakfast.]

Vince: Food…

Catalina: I can’t reach the biscuits and gravy, could someone pass down the platter?

Videm: I got it.

[Videm holds the biscuits and gravy, then attempts to throw it in front of her, but it misses, hitting the wall.]

Videm: Uh… oops, sorry…

Catalina: Oh… that’s okay!  I’ll just get some blueberry muffins!

Sam: The last train pancake o-o
[Sam tries to jump over the table, but fails and hurts his leg.]
Sam: Sweet taco sauce!

Vince: Here you go. *gives Sam sweet taco sauce*

Sam: Oh thanks :D

Zeke: Could, uh, someone hand me the sour cream?

[Spicy hands Zeke the sour cream, but neither of them exchange words.]

Vince: No thank you?

Morris: Well, this is quite a mess, isn’t it?

Videm: Sorry, Morris.

Morris: It’s fine, no need to worry.  We would’ve gotten a maid, but I suppose a lot of people have trust issues…

Videm: What?

Morris: Oh, it was nothing.
Dr. Marv: Excuse me, but where’s Kitten?

Videm: I don’t know, I haven’t seen her since yesterday’s dinner.

[Kitten suddenly opens the door. Her hair is all messy, and her eyes look very tired.]

Sam: OH GOD IT’S HIDEOUS!

Vince: Sam… that’s rude…

Kitten: Says you… I stayed up all night…

Dr. Marv: Why would you do that? A human needs at least an hour of sleep…

Kitten: I… I don’t want to talk about it.

[Kitten sits in the chair, eating her breakfast.]

Videm: Which portal are we going through first?

Morris: Time will tell, do not worry.

Sam: I don’t like time, because I tried to become a Time Lord from Doctor Who and failed. Biggest waste of 1 million dollars.

Catalina: I love Dr. Who!  I participated in a Spanish fandub of it!

Sam: Really?! I was the leading sponsor of a project to make a TARDIS. I think that failed too…

Catalina: Oh, I’m sorry…

Sam: Well, at least the Doctor Who fan community tried.

Catalina: Yeah…

Morris: Sorry to interrupt your riveting conversation, but the time has come to begin the first task.

[In the huge cave, Morris is standing next to a portal with a black, sparkly frame. It has a star symbol on it.]

Morris: In order to progress through each portal, you must collect a special object needed to activate the portal.

[Morris walks in front of the portal.]

Morris: For this portal, I have the needed object.

[Morris puts the object into the symbol slot, and a few weird noises are heard, and suddenly the rift opens. The rift appears to lead into outer space.]

Videm: Hey! That’s the same image I saw in the heart crystal Catalina had!

Catalina: Oh, right!

Morris: Of course—I mean, you have?  Interesting… anyway, shall we head through the portal?

[The group all say yes, and so Morris directs them through the portal, leading them into a metal room.]

Videm: This reminds me of something…

Catalina: Hm?

Dr. Marv: Have you recognized it, Videm?

Sam: It’s cold in here D: <

Videm: Kitten! I remember, this was the room Kitten held us captive in!

Vince: Oh I remember that.

Spicy: I remember it too…

Catalina: Yeah, same…

Alice: Oh, that room…

Kitten: Sorry for, uh… kidnapping you guys, hehe…

Sam: All is forgiven because now I can take over the world with trains—I mean what.

Videm: Where are we supposed to go anyway? I don’t see anything but metal in this room.

Dr. Marv: Well, you’re blind. I see a little window.

Videm: You do? I don’t see any—

[Dr. Marv turns Videm around.]

Videm: Ohh… now I see…

Dr. Marv: It’s only the same image from the rift, unless it actually leads into space, which also means do NOT open that window!

Kitten: Well, how else are we supposed to progress through here? There’s literally nothing here!

Vince: Don’t worry. I got this. *Puts Christina Aguilera poster over window*

Dr. Marv: Smart idea, Vince.

Sam: Isn’t she that one woman that coached in The Voice?

Vince: Oh, yeah… I also have a poster of Gwen Stefani :D

Kitten: Wait, I see a little globe that has a purple aura around it!

[Kitten picks it up, and suddenly she disappears, leaving the globe on the ground.]

Videm: What the hell? What happened to her?

Vince: Dang it Kitten.

Morris: I believe she was transported to somewhere else, perhaps where the villain may actually live.
Videm: Alright, then I guess we should all hold the globe.

[Everybody goes to hold the globe, but suddenly a little creature burps behind them. They all turn around, seeing a small, green-skinned creature with a little antenna above its head.]

Videm: It’s an alien!

Vince: It’s Christina Aguilera, I say burn her.

Sam: May I suggest running or something instead?

Vince: Smart decision, but no.

Dr. Marv: Don’t worry, it’s harmless. I know this creature.

Catalina: What is this creature?

Vince: It’s Gwen Aguilera obviously.

Sam: Oh god. That’s hideous too.

[Dr. Marv picks up the little creature, who is smiling with its little buck-teeth. He carries it on his back, while the little creature flails its arms with ecstasy.]

Catalina: It’s kinda cute in a weird sorta sense.

Dr. Marv: Indeed so, but you do not want to see their parents. Those things will actually hurt.

Videm: Well… are we going?

Dr. Marv: Oh, right!

[One by one, everybody touches the orb, and is transported to where Kitten was transported.]

Kitten: Oh, hey guys! Was wondering when you’d come :|

Videm: Sorry, we were just stopped by the alien.

Kitten: You mean, that thing right there?
[Kitten points at the little alien, which sits on the back of Dr. Marv.]

Kitten: It looks cute!

Dr. Marv: Anyway, where are we?

[The room they are in is still made of metal, but bigger than the last one, almost as big as a deluxe movie theater. It has many decorations, both in the wall and as futuristic furniture. There stands a mysterious man in a black cloak. He sees the group, then hums.]

Mysterious Man: Go away!

Kitten: Look, we don’t have much time, bad guy, so cough it up and let’s get it over with.

Mysterious Man: What are you talking about?

Videm: Oh, heh… that’s just Kitten being Kitten… we come in peace.

Mysterious Man: So, what? Now you’re talking to me like I’m an alien?

Dr. Marv: None of us mean it that way. It’s a long story, and the only simple version I can give to you is that we need to find a villain.

Mysterious Man: Ah, that makes sense. However, the only crime I’ve committed was stealing a bathtub full of chocolate rubber duckies… don’t ask…

Jeffrey: Why did you steal it? *laughter*

[Mysterious Man ignores him.]

Dr. Marv: Do you know anyone who may possibly be a threat to your dimension?

[The Mysterious Man thinks for a second, looking into blank space, literally.]

Mysterious Man: I do know a fellow that goes by the name the Intrinity, make sure to pronounce his name as “In-try-nity”, he doesn’t like how his nickname is always mispronounced. Anyway, he usually causes trouble by summoning black holes and he likes causing gamma rays.

Videm: Holy crap! You say that like it’s normal!

Mysterious Man: Well, of course. Time travel is in the past, and just messing around is today's thing. Once everybody knew the past, they just decided not to do anything about it in fear of the ultimate destruction of the whole universe.

Dr. Marv: Quite marvelous. So, somehow we time traveled as well as traveled through dimensions?

Strange Robot: I believe the only thing we have actually done is travel through dimensions; this dimension is alternate to our dimension.

Mysterious Man: You guys are dimension hoppers? That’s forbidden at this time of age!

Kitten: Awesome! We’re rebels! I feel the rebel power surging inside of me!

Catalina: If only Stephen were here, he would think this is really cool…

Alice: Who is Stephen?

Catalina: He was my buddy when I was a thief.  He was British.  He helped me with my English.

Dr. Marv: Do you know where Intrinity is?

Mysterious Man: Last I saw him was in Asteroid Lane #51542

Videm: Uh… where exactly would that be?
[The Strange Robot suddenly summons a blue, transparent sphere around the group.]

Dr. Marv: What the!?…

Strange Robot: Activating teleportation in 3…

Videm: Wait, what are you doi-

Strange Robot: 2…

Kitten: Brace yourselves!

Strange Robot: 1…

Omar: NOO—

Strange Robot: Teleportation in process…

[The group is then teleported on top of a huge asteroid, in space.]

Videm: Oh, god! I can’t breathe, again!—wait, no. That’s just me, again.

Catalina: What’s happening!?  Are we going to die!?

Alice: I hope not!

Strange Robot: Oxygen level detected to be 99%

Dr. Marv: Impossible, and how are we traveling at this speed!?

[The asteroid is suddenly bumped into by another one.]

Alien: HEY! WATCH WHERE YOU’RE GOING!

Spicy: AHH ALIEN—wait, it speaks English?

Vince: Oh god…

[The asteroid they are on keeps going regardless of the bump, they are headed towards a very bright star.]

Videm: Oh god, I can’t see!

Dr. Marv: Somehow we’re not being burned to pieces, this is good news!

Zeke: Yeah, that is nice…

Vince: *snrrk*

Kitten: If we’re going to die right now, I just want to say that I don’t like Vince!

Spicy: Wait, there’s a possibility of dying?  Darn it, why didn’t I realize that!?

Vince: *snrrk*

Zeke: What’s so freakin’ funny!?

Vince: Nothing, nothing…

Zeke: Then why do you keep laughing!?

Vince: *snrrk*

[Spicy slips, and Zeke helps them up.]

Spicy: Th-thanks…

[Zeke says nothing, looking ahead.]

Videm: Wait a minute, there he is!

[The supposed villain is riding a shooting star towards them.]

Intrinity: AHAHA! It feels so good to cause asteroid crashes!

Catalina: Is that him?  That… Intrinity *mispronounced* person?

Spicy: I think it’s pronounced In-TRY-nity, not TRIH, Catalina.

[Suddenly, the shooting star crashes right into the asteroid, causing a big explosion on impact. Luckily, the asteroid is large enough to resist most of the explosion and has enough space on the surface for everybody to not fall off.]

Intrinity: Ah, victims today!- wait, what exactly IS your fashion taste!? You all look hideous!

Spicy: Excuse you!  This is the most expensive thing I own!

Vince: *laughs* Ahh… that’s a good one Spicy *continues laughing*

Intrinity: How much’d it cost? One star?! What a worthless piece of silicon!

Spicy: If I knew how to convert stars to dollars, I’d come up with a good comeback!

Vince: I don’t get it…

[Intrinity laughs at Spicy.]

Kitten: Alright, jigs up, Intrickery, whatever the fuck your name is supposed to be, we know you’re the villain we’re supposed to defeat!

Vince: Don’t swear!

Intrinity: Oh… it’s you!

[Intrinity suddenly changes his mood and personality.]

Videm: What do you mean it’s us? Did you expect some sort of stupid alien that you’d be able to attack?

[All the aliens suddenly stop and glare at Videm.]

Videm: Uh, I mean… uh, I love aliens! I have a best friend that’s an alien!

[Videm points at Vince.]

Vince: A jelly bean just fell in my shoe, meh *eats anyways* Oh right, my hips just do not lie. *randomly starts dancing*

Kitten: Classic Vince.

[The aliens then start to get off their asteroids and jump over to the group’s asteroid. They then start charging towards the group.]

Catalina: Oh, great, what now?

Strange Robot: If my calculations are the most up to date, the approximate percent of us living an alien attack is 0.00000000000000000-

Dr. Marv: We don’t have time for this! I’ve got the perfect plan!

[Dr. Marv tries shooting a blue portal on one of the asteroids, but it fails.]

Dr. Marv: What!? Impossible, what a rip-off this cheap thing is!

Vince: Let me see that…

[Vince snatches the portal gun from Dr. Marv.]

Vince: Ooh, fancy…

Dr. Marv: Careful, it has a miniature black hole in the th-

[Vince points it at an alien, pressing the trigger, and once the alien was hit by the bullet, it was pushed by so much force that it exploded.]

Kitten: Holy shit, Vince! You’re a genius!

Vince: *eats jelly beans* wat.

Videm: Uh-huh, come on! Let’s kick some aliens, uh… whatever they use to remove waste from their system!

Strange Robot: The average alien uses their-

[Suddenly, an alien jumps onto the Strange Robot, who immediately claws the alien away with his forceful, robotic arms. Videm runs and jumps onto a few aliens, getting 1-ups every tenth alien kill.  Catalina manages to fend against some attacking aliens using her whip, as Zeke and Spicy provide help from behind her. The rest does some usual action stuffness.]

Morris: This is going to be quite easy.

[Once all of the aliens are defeated, Intrinity stands there with clear rage in his eyes.]

Intrinity: FOOLS! I shall not be stopped now!

[Intrinity, with his staff, smashes the asteroid surface, causing it to break into pieces. Luckily, everybody is on at least one asteroid piece. Intrinity then casts a spell using a staff that summons a monster that is almost as big as the star. It starts swinging its arms all around the asteroids, bumping and spreading out many of the group.]

Catalina: EEK!

Dr. Marv: Everybody, stay on your asteroid, and try to deal as much damage to the big guy, I’ll take on Intrinity!

Videm: Sounds like a good plan!

[Videm jumps from asteroid to asteroid, and when the monster swings at Videm, Videm jumps onto its arms, striking his fist at it. The monster roars in pain, as Kitten also jumps and kicks the monster’s legs.  Catalina, propelled by Zeke, strikes the monster’s left eye with her whip.  Spicy makes their way up the body, and stabs the monster’s right eye with a knife Catalina provided them with.  After, they are knocked off by the monster’s flailing, and are caught by Zeke.  The monster swings at Vince.]

Vince: Eeek D:

[Vince is caught by Alice, who hands him to Zeke.  Alice then brings out dual guns and shoots at the monster.]

Catalina: It’s almost down!  Just a bit more!  Everyone!

[Everyone uses their weapons to bring down the monster once and for all.  The monster drifts away into the distance, never to be seen again.]

Dr. Marv: Looks like it’s just me and you, Intrinity.

Intrinity: You’re not the hero I’m looking for!

Dr. Marv: My theory is that you’re going to die one way or the other, and my hypothesis is my gravity gun!

[Dr. Marv holds a big asteroid piece with his gravity gun, then charges it up. Intrinity grins, striking his staff at the ground, causing the asteroid underneath Dr. Marv to shake. Dr. Marv begins to lose his balance, but before he falls, he shoots the asteroid right at Intrinity, causing him to fly off screaming at the top of his lungs.]

Videm: Looks like we’ve defeated him!

[All of them are suddenly transported to the cave, where the portal’s rift is still open, but it has a stronger aura than from before.]

Videm: So, who is going to fight this guy?

Morris: Whoever obtained the object for the next portal is the one to fight Intrinity.

[Everybody looks around for the object.]

Strange Robot: I believe I have found the object in my possession. Do you want me to scan it?

Morris: Nevermind scanning it, you now must go into the portal and face Intrinity.
[Everybody wishes the Strange Robot luck.]

Vince: Good luck. This sh is bananas, B-A-N-A-N-A-S

Catalina: We believe in you.  Do your best!

[Kitten goes over to pat the Strange Robot on his shoulder.]

Kitten: Break a leg, or two. However many you think he should have left.

Strange Robot: Changing objective to… terminate Intrinity. Setup process now complete.
[The Strange Robot walks through the portal, and the camera fades to white.]

ON THE NEXT EPISODE OF CONFUSION, AFTER WORLD DANGERS!

Announcer: AND NOW WE’RE BACK TO WORLD DANGERS

~Battle~

[On the other side of the portal is the inside of a huge clockwork tower. The gears in the tower are not moving. The Strange Robot is on top of a huge gear piece, however he is not alone. Intrinity stands in front, grinning like a maniac. The gang watches this fight through the portal, and are cheering the Strange Robot on.]

Intrinity: Hehe, this should be easy…

[Intrinity summons an aura of water with his staff, which he is able to control with his staff. The Strange Robot dodges the bolts of water coming at him, he then shoots a few homing rockets at Intrinity. However, Intrinity blocks it with a summoned forcefield. Intrinity quickly shoots out an electrical bolt at the Strange Robot, and he is hit hard.]

Strange Robot: Core has been compromised… Repairing with backup files.

[The Strange Robot then boosts up with his jetpack, and flies straight at Intrinity, who is hit hard, and flies to the ground.]

Intrinity: GAH! GET OFF ME YOU RUSTY METAL!

[Intrinity gets up by kicking the Strange Robot. Intrinity then grips his staff with pure rage.]

Intrinity: When your creator made you, he wanted you to be only a stupid servant for his idiotic needs!

[Intrinity shoots out a miniature, but fast, black hole at the Strange Robot, who dodges it swiftly by jumping.]

Intrinity: You're a weak, decrypted version of any other robot he had. He was a fool, he made you because he was lonely, and guess who also turned out lonely!

Strange Robot: I… don’t quite understand these emotions…

[The Strange Robot is shaking, looking at Intrinity with glaring eyes. He then runs at him with a mechanical claw. Intrinity laughs, throwing his staff at the Strange Robot. The Strange Robot is struck so hard, sparks flying from his head.]

Intrinity: This is an easy fight. Soon, the only RAM you’ll need is the ones in the junkyard.

[Intrinity holds up his staff with two hands above the Strange Robot, but suddenly, the Strange Robot interrupts him.]

Strange Robot: You can’t bring me down, you idiotic galactical robber.

Intrinity: Huh!?

[The Strange Robot swiftly kicks Intrinity while getting up. Intrinity trips, and now the tables are turned. The Strange Robot holds both his mechanical claws over Intrinity.]

Strange Robot: I… I know who I am now, I remember the lost data…

Intrinity: The only thing you don’t remember is me BEING your creator, VVZ!

VVZ: What!?

[It is too late, however. VVZ had already stuck his claw into Intrinity. Everything suddenly goes bright, and a big explosion happens, throwing VVZ right into the portal, and Intrinity off the edge. Before their separation, VVZ looks at Intrinity for one last time, seeing the eyes closed, and the body already turning white. The blood from his chest is floating in the air, all while he gets further and further. The camera turns to white after this image.]

~Dinnertime~

[Zeke and Spicy eat in silence.]

Catalina: Well, today was interesting…

Alice: Indeed…

Morris: It’s going to be like this all of the time until you all defeat your respective villains.

Videm: Well, that sucks. However, at least we’re making progress!

Dr. Marv: How exactly was Intrinity VVZ’s creator?

VVZ: I believe he originally created me in his own laboratory, but when Dr. Roberto had stolen me, he built a time machine to go back into the past to save me. However, I believed he reversed his formula by accident, and instead of putting him in the past, it put him way into the future. There was no way back, so he began living his life as a destructive individual, hoping to find an escape from his own demise.

Videm: Wow, that’s quite a story…

Kitten: Geez, I feel bad for you now that you had to kill him…

Catalina: How unfortunate that all of this has had to happen to you and your creator…

VVZ: Today was the day I got to feel actual emotions now…

Dr. Marv: Just don’t get any ideas about neurotoxin gas…

[Dr. Marv is the only one to chuckle.]

Dr. Marv: What? No response?

Videm: I think it’s best if you keep jokes away from serious situations like these, Dr. Marv.

Dr. Marv: I’m sincerely sorry about that.

VVZ: No hard feelings.

Kitten: Well, I’m tired… I should go to bed by now.

 [Kitten excuses herself from the dining table, going up to her room.]

Videm: Wow, she barely ate her plate…

[After dinner, all of them head to their bedrooms.]

[Zeke and Spicy sit on opposite sides of their bed, looking at the wall of their side.  They sit in awkward silence, until Spicy begins to speak.]

Spicy: You’ve been ignoring me all day…

[Zeke says nothing, and Spicy stands.]

Spicy: I’m sorry for the kiss, okay?

Spicy: I didn’t know it would make things weird like that, but I guess I should’ve…

Zeke: It’s not the kiss…

Spicy: Huh?

[Zeke stands, and faces Spicy.  Both are still on opposite sides of the bed.]

Zeke: I just… didn’t know how to respond… so I didn’t.

Spicy: Well, you could’ve just punched me in the face…

[Zeke accidently lets out a laugh.]

Zeke: I’m sorry.  I shouldn’t have been so weird about it…

Spicy: Hey, I was the one who kissed you.  I shouldn’t’ve done it so randomly.

[The two sit in silence for a few more minutes, until Zeke speaks up.]

Zeke: What if… we dated?

Spicy: I don’t see an issue with the idea…

Zeke: But… wouldn’t it be weird for the others?

Spicy: Ah, who cares about them?  Most of them already thought we were dating anyway.  It’s not going to change anything.

[The two walk around the bed and hug each other.]

Zeke: Is that a yes?

Spicy: Yeah, it is.

[The screen fades to black.]

[Videm goes over to visit Kitten, but the door is locked, so Videm knocks.]

Videm: Hello?

[Videm hears a few rustling noises behind the door, and then Kitten opens the door.]

Kitten: What is it?

Videm: I just came to visit… sheesh…

Kitten: S… sorry, I’m just not used to being so nice.

Videm: So, can I come in? Or, what?…

Kitten: Oh, yeah, sure!

[Videm is invited into the new room Kitten had, since Morris still forbids going into the orange room. Her room is made up of red and pink wallpapers, and the texture is log-like. Many of her furniture look fancy, but there is still a mess of clothes.]

Videm: So, why’d you leave so early at dinner?

Kitten: I… I don’t want to explain it…

Videm: Come on, I’m still technically your father, you can tell me anything.

[The two sit on the bed.]

Kitten: I’m afraid of losing you and everybody if I told anybody.

Videm: Why would we break apart? It’s not possible, nothing is stronger than us.

Kitten: She’s a bigger threa-

[Kitten covers her mouth, and gasps. Videm looks at her strangely.]

Videm: Who exactly is “she”?

Kitten: N… nothing! It’s… me getting mixed up with my words…

[Videm sighs after a few seconds of silence.]

Kitten: Now, why are you sad?

Videm: Your mother is coming tomorrow, and I don’t know what’s going to happen…

Kitten: Oh… Abby…

Videm: Well, it’s past your bedtime… take care of yourself.

[Videm gets up, but before he could leave, Kitten stops him.]

Kitten: Wait!

Videm: Yes?

Kitten: Look… why are you nervous about the coming events? There’s nothing to be nervous about. Like you said, there’s nothing stronger than us. Don’t be like him.

Videm: Who?

Kitten: My real father…

Videm: You remember him?

Kitten: Just barely, I only remember him saying to me that courage is the only correct answer to fear, and that fear is the only question to your unknown answers.

Videm: Wow, your father must’ve been a wise man.

[Kitten looks at Videm with her wide eyes.]

Kitten: Well, at least he’s not the only wise man.

[Videm smiles.]

Videm: I appreciate that, Kitten, and I appreciate you.

[Videm kisses Kitten on the forehead, then walks back to his room.]


Episode 6 - Dawn of the Loving Death

[The rustling leaves of the forest sound almost like the unsettled waves that clashed together. The morning light is seen in the distance, the little birds fly over the skies, their flaps almost in unison with the waves. The bird eye’s view of the mansion is spectacular, the sunshine making it look shiny, and very godly. Inside the mansion’s playroom, people playing Go Fish are; Dr. Marv, Videm, Catalina, Zeke, Spicy, Vince, Alice, and VVZ.]

Dr. Marv: How about a 7?

VVZ: 7 is not in my catalog.

Videm: You’re supposed to say Go Fish, and then pull out a new card.

Vince: Geez guys, get it right!

[VVZ pulls out a new card.]

Dr. Marv: … Well, aren’t you gonna pick someone?

VVZ: Sorry, I was thinking about something.

Videm: Still not over your creator’s death?

VVZ: Catalina, do you possess a King?

Catalina: A king… un rey… go fish.

Alice: Hm…

Videm: So, uh… today’s the big day, isn’t it?

Spicy: Yeah.

VVZ: I don’t believe I’ve been informed of this big news?

Videm: Oh, right! I forgot to mention this to you, VVZ. We’re having a big forest party for the last batch of newcomers.

VVZ: Sounds… what’s that word?

Catalina: Fun?

VVZ: Yes! That is the correct term.

Dr. Marv: How did you not know how to use ‘fun’?

VVZ: I’m just getting used to these human-like emotions.

Catalina: Alice, do you have una reina, a queen?

Alice: Go Barry Fisherman.

Videm: Hah, Barry. I remember that guy.

[Catalina draws a card.]

Alice: Hmm… Zeke, do you have trois, a three?

[Morris opens the door.]

Morris: Be prepared for breakfast, as the newcomers will have arrived by then.
Videm: Well, I guess we should end this game.

Vince: Aww… I never had a turn ;c

VVZ: Fun Fact: I’ve never obtained a queen of spades during this session.

Catalina: Can I tell you all a secret?

Videm: You can tell us anything.

Catalina: I don’t actually know how to play Go Fish.

Dr. Marv: Don’t worry, I myself don’t know how to play poker.

Videm: I can teach you sometime, but for now I’m starving.

Spicy: Same.

[The group goes over to the front porch again, and this time, there are a total of six newcomers.]

Videm: Abby!

Abby: Videm!

[Abby runs over to hug Videm.]

Omar: Scarlett?

Scarlett: HI THERE :D

Jeffrey: Madison! I thought I would never see ya again.

Madison: Jeffrey! I heard you were on vacation out here.

Dr. Marv: Two unidentified females remain. Introduce yourselves.

Syrz: I am Syrz.  I come from a realm unknown to all of you.  I’m not sure how I got here, but I’m assuming I’ll figure it out.

Sara: My name is Sara! Ew! You guys are disgusting, go away now.

Jeffrey: Rudeeee!

Morris: This is quite the reunion, is it not?

VVZ: It would have seemed so, I am starting to recognize many of these people.

Morris: Anyway, breakfast is served.  Come into the refectory for breakfast.

[They all go into the refectory for breakfast.]

[Kitten sits in between Abby and Videm, Omar next to Vince and Dr. Marv.  Zeke is between Catalina and Spicy, Jeffrey next to Syrz, and Madison next to Videm. Alice is next to VVZ, and Syrz, Sara, and Scarlett all sit in a row.]

[Videm and Abby are conversing among each other.]

Videm: So… um…

Abby: Yes? What is it?

[Kitten just looks at her plate.]

Videm: How was it back there in your visit to Hawaii?

Abby: It was great, a few odd hotels, but it was fine.

[Videm tries to avoid looking at Catalina, now that Abby is here.]

Videm: That’s nice…

Abby: Why are you acting strange? It’s just not like you to be this way.

Videm: I’m just a little tired, that’s all.

[Syrz takes a bite of her food.]

Syrz: This food is disgusting.  What realm are we in?

Sara: Like, Ew! Like duhhhhh, we’re on the planet Earth, geez.

Syrz: I am from the realm of Ordera, a realm filled with order.  I was a princess there.

Scarlett: You were a princess!?  That’s, like, awesome sauce!

Spicy: By the way, why are you wearing heavy white makeup?  You kinda look like a Japanese geisha…

Syrz: I’m not sure what that is, but it’s customary of Orderan royalty to wear this makeup.

Spicy: And those heavy robes?

Syrz: Yes, that is also customary.

Scarlett: Doesn’t it get hot wearing all of those!?

Syrz: The realm that I am from is basically a desert.  I am quite used to heat.

[Catalina, Spicy, and Zeke are talking quietly.]

Zeke: So, what’s up with you and Videm?

Catalina: Quiet!  Not so loud…

Spicy: Huh?  Oh… Abby, that’s right…

Catalina: Abby and Videm are basically a couple, I shouldn’t get in their way…

Spicy: That’s rough…

[Jeffrey digs into the food.]

Jeffrey: This food is uh… different.

Madison: It’s better than most things I’ve had before.

[Videm, Kitten, and Abby are conversing.]

Abby: So, how did Kitten get here, and how is she not angry at you?

Videm: Well… I kind of…

Kitten: I know about the dimension rift.

[Abby stops eating in shock of what Kitten said.]

Videm: Shh…!

Abby: You told her!?

[Abby says this so loud, everybody looks at her.]

Videm: Quiet! Not so loud…

Abby: You told her?…

Videm: Well, not just her- I mean, darnit, why would I—

Abby: I thought we promised to keep it a secret, Videm…

Kitten: Shit…

Videm: Look, this secret had to have gone out one way or the other.

Abby: We could’ve kept it a secret until we went through the portal.

[Abby looks a little stressed, and Videm is even more nervous.]

Videm: W… why should we have kept it a secret? If I did, Kitten would’ve hated me even more!

Kitten: Please, stop fighting!

Abby: I just… I can’t believe you would’ve done something like this… I trusted you, and now that you did this, I won’t be able to trust you anymore… I’m breaking up with you.

[Abby gets up from her table, then leaves.]

Kitten: This rift is breaking us apart…

[After breakfast is over, they all head back to their rooms, except Omar, Vince, Alice, and Sara, who are in the playroom playing Chess.]

Omar: Checkmate!

Vince: This sh is bananas, B-A-N-A-N-A-S!

Sara: Ew, why do you always sing that?

Vince: Because I can.

Alice: *snrrk*

~Syrz’s Bedroom~

[Syrz looks around her bedroom.  The walls and the ceiling are made of tan limestone, and the floor is made of sand.  The bed is made of expensive sheepskins, and the bed frame itself is made of wood.  A large mirror sits on top of a dresser made of the same material as the bed.  Syrz takes off her crow headdress, and lets her long black hair fall against her red robes.  She then takes off her heavy red robes.  Underneath, she has a worn gray tunic and a pair of white tights.  There is a knock on the door.  Syrz answers the door and sees Omar.]

Syrz: Oh?  You were…?

Omar: Omar.

Syrz: Right.

Omar: Can I be your roommate?

Syrz: Why do you wish to be my roommate?

Omar: Because I want to.

Syrz: That’s an interesting reason… I’m not much of a good roommate, but this could work.  Bring your stuff.

Omar: Yay, thank you!

[Omar leaves to go fetch his stuff.]

Syrz: That was weird… this is going to be interesting.


~Sam’s Bedroom~

[Sam sits down on his bed and looks at his laptop.]
Sam: Hm, I wonder…
[Before Sam is able to do what he wanted to do, he hears a knock on his door.]
Sam: Hello? Who’s there?
[Sam opens the door to find Sara standing there.]
Sam: Oh, hi there. What do you want?

Sara: What do you want?!
Sam: What do
YOU want, this is my room!
Sara: What do
YOU want?!

Sam: I want to know what you want.

Sara: Ew.
Sam: So…?

Sara: So, what? Do you want me to say something, do you?!

Sam: Yes, I want to know why you are standing here.
Sara: Ew. I’m out of here. *snaps*
Sam: Did you want to be roommates or something? Because I didn’t knock on your door. You knocked on mine.

Sara: What? Oh, right. Wanna be roommates, because, I’m bored out of my mind, like, ew.

[Sam facepalms.]
Sam: Sure. Why not? Just don’t touch my stuff.

Sara: You mean this? *touches train and knocks it over*

Sam: NOOO, that was a classic 1895 gold-plated locomotive model from the transcontinental railroad set! Now there are only 2 left .-.

Sara: Ew, a train-freak.

Sam: What can I say, it’s a good industry.

Sara: Ew, industries.

Sam: Are you always like this?

Sara: Maybe, maybe not. Ew! Is that a poster of a train?!

Sam: No, that’s a poster of a video game with trains in it.

Sara: Ew! I love video games!
Sam: Well, I guess we can agree on something then. Also, don’t you have bags or something?

Sara: Ew! What bags?

Sam: Like, for clothes and everything?

Sara: Oh, right, bags, ew, they’re already in the closet.

Sam: In my closet? What did you do, sneak in here and shove them in there?

Sara: No, there’s a hole in your closet that I totally didn’t make. Ew!

Sam: Okay then. I’m going out. Get yourself situated or whatever.

Sara: Ew, don’t leave me with these Thomas trains!

Sam: I don’t have any Thomas trains…

Sara: Then what’s that at the window? *points to window*

[Sam turns around to see a blue toy train in the window.]
Sam: What the… I’ve never seen this before.

Sara: Ew! Whatever, just leave. I’ll get rid of it.

[Sam leaves the room to go out for a walk.]

Sara: Ew! *grabs Thomas train and throws out the window*

~Zeke and Spicy’s Bedroom~

[Zeke and Spicy are browsing Tumblr on the same laptop.]

Spicy: Reblog that post.

Zeke: Yeah, it’s not bad.

[Zeke clicks the Reblog button on a post.]

Spicy: So, who do you think would be a cute couple in this mansion?

Zeke: Besides us?

Spicy: Yeah.

Zeke: Uh…

[Zeke turns to the laptop, and ponders.]

Zeke: I saw Omar going to that weird makeup chick’s room earlier.  I wonder if there’s anything there.

Spicy: He probably just needed something from her.

Zeke: True…

Spicy: I still ship Catalina and Videm.  I hope it works out…

Zeke: Yeah…

~Catalina and Alice’s Bedroom~

[Catalina is on her phone, texting Zeke.  She looks away from her phone.]

Catalina: Alice, what are you doing?

Alice: Oh, I’m just counting beans.

Catalina: Why are you counting beans?

Alice: Because I have to make sure I eat fifty beans a day or I’ll explode.

Catalina: That’s a sad existence.

Alice: Just kidding. *smiles*

Catalina: Oh… *awkwardly chuckles*

Alice: I’m bored, when will we get back to the action?

Catalina: I’m not sure.

Alice: I’m going to brush my teeth, if you’ll excuse me.

Catalina: Okay.

~Videm and Dr. Marv’s Bedroom~

Dr. Marv: I couldn’t help but overhear your conversation…

Videm: I think everyone heard it, especially Catalina.

[Videm sighs, laying in his bed.]

Videm: I really hope Abby won’t be mad at me all night.

[Dr. Marv walks over to Videm, sitting on the bed next to him.]

Dr. Marv: Look… as someone who was confined in an underground laboratory with women, and I can say at the very least that they will always hold grudges, no matter what.

Videm: Catalina wouldn’t do that.

[Dr. Marv sighs, looking around the room, then back to Videm.]

Dr. Marv: Videm, true love is never forever, there will always be fights, and possibly break-ups. There’s no escaping the fact, no matter how hard you try.

Videm: Thanks for that, I guess. I have to ask, how was it back in the laboratory?

Dr. Marv: Ah, yes, the good ol’ Aperture Science and Black Mesa. They were my life for about 10 years. It was always my dream as a teenager to major in physics and be a worker of Aperture Science. However, when I finally graduated college, my parents stuck with the offer Black Mesa over the expensive Aperture Science offer they gave me, and so I became a janitor in Black Mesa. I was desperate, so I agreed to go after being stubborn for so long.

[Videm nods his head and “uh-hums”.]

Dr. Marv: Working in Black Mesa as a janitor was tough, let me tell you that now. The scientists there are so irresponsible, especially after the infection outbreak…

Videm: How’d you survive the infection outbreak anyway?

Dr. Marv: I stole a gravity gun when it happened, and I managed to use the rifts of each dimension to get back to the surface. Coincidentally, I managed to get myself in Michigan, so I looked around and found myself a place to live in. I then somehow managed to get interviewed by Aperture Science, which was a really odd interview, but I got to be a scientist at least. I was bestfriends with this one woman, she was gorgeous, and very funny. She raised my chin up when I was down, but when Cave Johnson was sick, I was fired for talking to my best friend, I don’t know why, but all I know is that she still worked there afterwards. When news got around that GLaDOS had killed every living thing in the facility, I prayed she wasn’t one of those that got killed.

Videm: Wow, that’s quite sad…

Dr. Marv: I tried looking for the perfect love, but every time I mentioned the laboratory and backstory, the relationship would end soon afterwards. So, once I got over trying to find the perfect mate, I set out on an adventure, flying all over the world, seeing new creatures and things that have never been found before. I wrote a few journals that were scattered across the world, and so when I found a pamphlet involving this mansion, I decided to stay here, writing all of my found things and proof into one big book.

[Dr. Marv points to his computer.]

Videm: Oh, so that’s why you’ve been typing furiously at night.

Dr. Marv: And it explains my inactive interaction with the group.

Videm: Trust me, you’re pretty active compared to everyone else here.

[Videm picks up a portrait of Abby and Videm, looking at it with sorrow in his eyes.]

Videm: I should apologize to her.

Dr. Marv: I think it’s best if you should.

[Videm leaves the room.]

[5 minutes earlier, in Abby’s room, where it is all pink and purple with circles on the wall, and the furniture is ordinary girl furniture, the clothes in the closet are neatly stacked and hung. A knock is heard on the door.]

Abby: Who is it?

Kitten: Abby, it’s me, Kitten.

[Abby hesitates opening the door at first, but then goes up and opens it.]

Kitten: Hi…

Abby: Hello.

[Abby smiles at Kitten.]

Abby: Come in!

[Kitten goes in, then Abby closes the door behind. They both sit on the big bed.]

Kitten: Abby, or mom… I came in because I want to thank you.

Abby: Huh?…

Kitten:  I wanted to thank you for everything you gave me as a daughter, even though you knew I was not really your child.

[Kitten looks at Abby, then hugs her. Abby is shocked.]

Abby: Oh… well, very welcome.

Kitten: Remember the time when you still supported me even when I gave up trying to make my video game? Even though you wanted me to do gymnastics?

Abby: Hehe, yeah… you were trying your hardest to finish your first boss battle.

Kitten: Yeah, good times.

[Suddenly there is a knock on the door.]

Abby: Who is it?!

Videm: It’s… me.

Kitten: I’ll go get it.

[Kitten goes up to open the door, and when she does, Videm is there.]

Videm: Hello Kitten.

Kitten: Hi Videm. Come in, come in.

[Videm walks in the room, meeting eye contact with Abby. She sees the sorrow in his eyes.]

Abby: Do you need something?

Videm: Yes, I want to apologize for the things I’ve done, to you and to Kitten. I shouldn’t have kept the secret and I should have kept the secret at the same time. I’m sorry for trying to kill you, and I’m sorry for being so irresponsible of my father and boyfriend status.

[Abby smiles, and so does Kitten. Videm still looks at Abby with gloomy eyes.]

Videm: So, do you forgive me?

Abby: I do :)

[Abby and Videm hug it out, then kiss.]

Kitten: Ew…

[Videm and Abby look at Kitten, then laugh. They all hug it out.]

Kitten: It feels so good that you guys are back together.

[Kitten is looking behind Abby, and sees a portrait of Videm, Abby, and Kitten. She smiles  at the sight of it. Spontaneously, the portrait quickly ignites, burning into a pile of ash.]

~Lunchtime~

Sam: Food! :D

Videm: Ah, yes, the perfect meal! Fresh, steamy hot dogs with the side of fried chicken.

Kitten: If you’re not gonna finish that fried chicken, then can I have some? :3
Dr. Marv: Nothing beats eating a professionally hand-crafted Mac & Cheese after a long day of work.

Sam: Who only eats Mac & Cheese? Are you insane in the head? You need steak and everything good too.

Vince: Who are you, Chie?

Videm: He’s been a scientist in Aperture Science, of course he’s insane :P

Sam: Eh, good point.

Alice: I shall eat as much as I can manage.

Omar: You’re going to get fat.

[Kitten chuckles.]

Kitten: Good one, Omar!

Omar: Thank you.

Alice: Just be warned, you two may die in about two days. *laughs*

Omar: That’s creepy.

[Alice glares at Omar, then smiles.]

Sam: Hm, I think I don’t want to have train pancakes for once.

Vince: What? Sam doesn’t want train pancakes?

Sam: I feel like the craving for them has just disappeared.

Videm: Who are you and what have you done with the real Sam!?

Sam: No I’m me, I just don’t feel like eating them anymore. They seem to have lost their interesting qualities for some reason.

Kitten: Hey, uh… What’s that book in the fire, and why is it turning the fire to purple?

Dr. Marv: What!? It’s the Book of Pure Darkness! I thought it was destroyed!

Sam: Isn’t only supposed to be destroyed by someone who is purely dark or whatever?

Videm: Oh yeah… we forgot about that…

[Dr. Marv swiftly moves out of his chair, running to the fire, and putting it out with the water from his drinking glass. However, the fire only grows bigger from this, so Dr. Marv backs away quickly when the flames reach to the outside.]

Kitten: Holy shit!

Sam: GET TO THE CHOPPER!!

[Morris walks into the dining hall, seeing the book.]

Morris: What’s the meaning of this?

Videm: What do you mean? I thought you were able to control it?!

Morris: The previous times I have, but oddly it couldn’t have been me this time.

Abby: Then who did it?

[The book suddenly erupts its pages, which flies everywhere in the dining hall like a tornado.]

Omar: AAAAAHHHH!

Videm: Everyone, hold on to the table or a chair!

[Everybody tries their hardest holding onto their chairs, until suddenly everything stops. Everyone falls down to the ground, grunting in pain. Suddenly, Dale opens the door.]

Dale: I HEARD JESUS CHRIST CALL ME! WHAT’D I MISS?!

[Everyone gets up from the ground.]

VVZ: It wasn’t Jesus Christ, it was—

[The camera pans to the foggy area around the fireplace, the smoke slowly clearing out, revealing a person who is on the floor, looking unconscious.]

Jeffrey: Who is that!?

Dr. Marv: No… it couldn’t be…

Videm: Who is it!?

Dr. Marv: It’s… Isabelle, my best friend from Aperture Science…

[Isabelle coughs, as Dr. Marv helps her up.]

Isabelle: Where… where am I?

Dr. Marv: It’s me, Isabelle: Dr. Marv!

Isabelle: Dr. Marv? Is it actually you?! W… where are we?

Kitten: You’re inside a mansion with a lot of cool stuff!

[Kitten looks at Vince, then points at him.]

Kitten: Except that thing.

Vince: I hate you too, ol’ buddy ol’ pal!

Isabelle: All I recall seeing was running through the laboratory halls, then slowly dying as I heard GLaDOS’ voice… I can’t, for the life of me, remember what she said.

Dr. Marv: All that matters is you being actually alive and here!

[Dr. Marv and Isabelle hug.]

Abby: Aww, they look so cute!

Videm: I don’t understand how this happened, how did the book summon you?

Morris: I wonder that as well…

Isabelle: I’m not sure… I can’t remember anything between my quote on quote “death” to now.

Morris: Well, I suppose I should escort you to your room.

[Morris walks Isabelle over to her new room, then Dave walks in.]

Dave: What th—

Dale: Just what in the devil are you doing out here!? Get back in the kitchen, Dave!

Dave: But…  but…

[Dave kneels down, picking up his mashed potatoes.]

Dave: Mah potatoes!

Dale: I said get back in there, boy!

[Dale drags Dave back into the kitchen.]

[Everyone, except Videm, Dr. Marv, and VVZ, who are setting up the party in the forest, head back to their rooms after the little incident.]

~Syrz and Omar’s Room~

[Syrz is fixing her heavy makeup as Omar sits on the bed.]

Syrz: Would you mind helping me with my robes?

Omar: Sure.

Syrz: Alright, please tie this part in the back.

[Omar ties the part.]

Syrz: There are three layers I must worry about.  It’s very customary of an Orderan princess to wear several layers and conceal herself well.

Omar: Uhh… okay then.

Syrz: I wouldn’t expect you to understand.
Syrz: I don’t believe I gave you my name.  I’m
Syrz lav Kukaras ni Tokuol.

[Syrz goes back to her makeup.]

Syrz: Is English the only language that exists in this realm?

Omar: No.

Syrz: Oh, really?  Orderan is the only language that exists in Ordera.  Is English the only language you speak?

Omar: No.

Syrz: Would you mind speaking in the other languages you know?

Omar: انت مثيرة [an-tee-kah mee-lah.]

Syrz: Oh, that sounds like a beautiful language!

Syrz: Ern bukuol gastal, kur ari nona bukuol gastal.  That’s a bit of Orderan.

Omar: That’s nice.

Syrz: Indeed it is.  Now, if you’ll excuse me, I’m going to go talk with the others and learn about this place.

[Syrz leaves the room.]

~Catalina and Alice’s Room~

[Syrz knocks on the door.]

Catalina: Who is it?

Syrz: It is I, Syrz.

Catalina: Okay, come in!

Alice: *whispers* Who is Syrz?

Catalina: *whispers* She was that girl with the weird makeup and those heavy robes.

Alice: *whispers* Oh… okay.

[Syrz walks in.]

Syrz: I apologize for the interruption, but I was wondering who in this mansion knows the most about fashion here?

Catalina: Zeke and Spicy are gay, so they’re pretty good at fashion.

Syrz: Zeke and Spicy… alright.

[Syrz leaves the room.]

~Zeke and Spicy’s Room~

[Syrz knocks on the door.  Zeke stands up.]

Zeke: I’ll get it.

[Zeke opens the door.]

Syrz: Hello.  Someone told me you two were something called “gay” and you knew a lot about fashion.

Zeke: That’s true, and?

Syrz: I would like to know the common fashion of this place.

Spicy: It doesn’t really matter what you wear.

Zeke: That’s kind of overly-formal for here, though.  For now, your robe and heavy makeup will be fine, but we show a lot of skin here.

Syrz: Show a lot of skin?

Zeke: Yeah.

Syrz: That will be difficult for me, but I will do my best.

Zeke: Yeah, just stop by whenever you need something.

Syrz: Right…

[Syrz leaves.]

Spicy: Wow, you were surprisingly conversational with her.

Zeke: Huh?  I guess I didn’t notice…

Spicy: Usually you’re so shy around other people…

Zeke: I guess I kinda just relate to her in some ways, y’know?

Spicy: Oh, yeah, you’re right…
Zeke: Well, the party is coming up soon, try to look formal.

Spicy: It’s a casual party…

Zeke: Well, everyone expects us to be the best dressed.

[Spicy sighs.]

Spicy: Being gay is so frustrating…

Zeke: Well, deal with it.

[Spicy starts to undress and changes into a suit.]

~Sam and Sara’s Room~
[Sam reaches under the bed and grabs a candy bar from a random box.]
Sam: Mmm, ever had a
 Cadbury Curly Wurly Bar?
Sara: EW! I love Cadbury Curly Wurly Bars!
Sam: Really?
Sara: Yeah! It’s, like, totally ew!
Sam: Want half of this one? I’ve got a whole one.
[Sam holds out the Cadbury Curly Wurly Bar.]
Sara: Ew! Just give me the whole box!

 Sam: No, this is my last box! It’s half of this bar or none!

Sara: Ew! You, like, touched the whole bar though, I want another one…

Sam: Ughhhhh, fine. I’ll give you 3 bars.
[Sam reaches for the box again and hands Sara three bars.]

Sara: Ew! I love these bars!
Sam: If I find out you stole any of them, I will… uh… hmm… get a new box and find a hiding place for them.

Sara: Ew! What is that Thomas train doing here, I thought I got rid of it!

Sam: Someone must’ve thought it was mine and brought it back up here.
Sara: But who has access to our room?

Sam: Probably everyone as long as we don’t lock the door.

Sara: Ew! Why wouldn’t we lock our door?!
Sam: Maybe we just walk out when we aren’t paying attention and think that we locked the door…
Sara: I was in our room all day and made sure our door was locked when I left for meals…
Sam: Maybe it was Morris…

Sara: Or maybe… this room is haunted…
Sam: Yep, you’ve officially gone insane.

[In the forest, where Videm, Dr. Marv, and VVZ are setting up the party, there are many decorations and tables that were set up.]

Dr. Marv: Hammer.

[VVZ holds up a hammer, giving it to him. Dr. Marv hits the hammer on the nail.]

Dr. Marv: Time.

[VVZ switches his display to the time, which is 2:15 PM, when all of sudden the nails on the board fall down.]

Dr. Marv: Nailed it!

[Videm is carrying a few plates and eating utensils, and places them down on each of the tables. Videm spots the broken board and Dr. Marv on the ladder with VVZ below him.]

Videm: Dr. Marv, how’d you break it already?!

Dr. Marv: This is probably why the scientists didn’t allow me to design the test chambers.

Videm: Oh, well, I’m gonna take a break, these plates are so heavy!

[VVZ picks up a plate.]

VVZ: The approximate mass of this plate is 5 kilograms. The average mass a man can carry is estimated to be at least 40 kilograms.

Videm: Pfft… That's… wrong, obviously. You need to get updated-

VVZ: My drivers and information is the most up to-

Videm: Yeah, yeah. I'm weak, I know!

[Videm walks through the forest, spotting a large rock, then laying on it with his arms and legs spread out. He sighs, taking a look at the bright, blue afternoon sky. After a few minutes, he hears a little rustle below him. He looks around the forest, but when he sees nothing, he just lies back down. The rustle grows louder, and when he looks this time, he sees a little grasshopper walking on top of a few leaves. He gets up from the rock and heads over to the little grasshopper, he inspected it.]

Videm: What a little thing you are compared to the world.

[The grasshopper then scatters and hops through a pile of leaves, revealing a little hatch.]

Videm: Huh? What’s this?

[Videm carefully opens the metallic hatch, lifting it, and revealing a thin, rectangular device with a black screen on it. He picks it up carefully, then blows the dust off of it. He tries turning it on, but it does not respond.]

Videm: Sweet, a free tablet. I wonder why someone would hide it, though…

[Videm hears Dr. Marv calls his name, so Videm quickly gets up and walks back to the party's setting.]

Dr. Marv: What do you have there, Videm?

Videm: I don’t know, some strange device that won’t turn on.

VVZ: I’ll try scanning it, and see if I can turn it on.

[VVZ picks it up from Videm’s hands, scanning it carefully.]

VVZ: Error 404: Data unsuccessfully scanned, self-destructing in 3…

Videm: Wait, WHAT!?

[Videm snatches the tablet from VVZ’s robotic claws.]

VVZ: Videm detected to have no humor.

Dr. Marv: Well, he’s not wrong.

[They all go back to working on the party.]

~Pre-Dinner, 5:41 PM~

[Abby is walking down the hallways of the mansion, getting ready for the party, when suddenly she hears Morris’ voice from Isabelle’s room.]

Morris: You can’t be serious, I would not do something stupid like that!

(Insert playroom thingies here)

[Abby walks down the hallway, with her arms crossed. She looks around the area, observing it. She then stops when she hears Morris and Isabelle. Abby eavesdrops next to the door.]

Morris: … expecting me to do that? No, that's just stupid.

~Party~

Videm: Hey, I wanna show you a tablet I found. I was hoping you could know what some of these symbols on the frames mean.

[Videm shows Catalina the tablet. It has a frame full of symbols ranging from a full hourglass to the sun and moon looking like the yin-yang symbol.]

Catalina: I’m not sure… none of these pop out at me…

Videm: Hm… maybe I can decipher it later, for now, we’ve got a party to go to.

[Videm puts the tablet in his pocket, and they continue onwards, until they reach the party, where there is a huge stage with a screen behind it. The karaoke is set up, and the tables are circular, on top of which are little papers. It is a pretty big plot in the forest where there are no trees in the way, so the starry night is clear in the sky.]

Videm: Wow, the sky is so beautiful! Is this what the rural night sky looks like everytime?

Morris: That is true.

Videm: AHH!

[Morris stands behind them, hands folded behind him.]

Videm: Why do you keep suddenly popping out of nowhere!?

[They all go to their tables to eat delicious food.]

[Vince, Spicy, Jeffrey, Sam, Omar, and Zeke are all on a table, discussing their plans for karaoke.]

Spicy: I’m so hyped!  I can’t wait.

Vince: I know right!

Zeke: I haven’t sang in front of people before…

Jeffrey: You just gotta let your heart out and sing. You could also dance and it would distract you from the people.

Vince: Oh, you finally talk after a long period of time.

Omar: My booty is ready.

[Abby, Sara, Syrz, Alice, Catalina, Scarlett, Madison, and Isabelle all sit on two separate tables since they are a packed group.]

Catalina: I’m so excited for the show that those guys are putting on.

Abby: I am too! I just wish Ed Sheeran was performing, though…

Sara: Oh my god! I’m going to sing Ho—wait. It’s a surprise.

Syrz: I’ve never been to a performance so informal before.

[Videm, VVZ, and Morris are at one table, discussing things. Morris was drinking some wine, Videm was drinking Capri Sun, whilst VVZ was drinking oil.]

Videm: Oh man, this Capri Sun is so strong.

VVZ: I like my oil concentrated.

Morris: You guys are quite something.

[Videm burps, going in for another slurp on the Capri Sun, but realizes it is out.]

Videm: Darnit! Stupid Capri Suns not having enough juice!

VVZ: Would you like me to assist with your juicy needs?

Videm: Uh… sure!

[The show is about to begin. Everybody hushes. Spicy peeks outside the curtains, but is then pulled back by Zeke.]

Omar (announcing): And now… Spicy, Vince, That one guy with the Z in his name, Jeffrey, and Sam!

[They all come out, the crowd cheering.]

Omar (announcing): NO, YOU’RE NOT SUPPOSED TO CHEER YET!

[The crowd stops cheering, then the first person begins their singing.]

Jeffrey: I will now sing Wildest Dreams.

[Jeffrey sings Wildest Dreams.]

[The crowd cheers, Madison in particular cheering more.]

Vince: I’m going to sing True Colours!

[Vince sings True Colors.]

[The crowd is crying from the beauty.]

Omar: I’m going to sing Can I Have It Like That by Pharrell.

[Omar sings Can I Have It Like That by Pharrell.]

[The crowd cries and cheers.]

Sara: Like, oh my god, I will now sing Hollaback Girl.

[Sara sings Hollaback Girl.]

[The crowd cheers.]

Sam: Hi there. I’m going to sing Can’t Sleep Love!

[Sam sings Can’t Sleep Love by Pentatonix.]

[The crowd cheers.]

Zeke: Uh, I’ll be singing… Blackbird…

[Zeke sings Blackbird by the Beatles.]

[The crowd cheers.]

Spicy: Hello, everyone.  I’ll be singing a special song, so if you have someone to dance with, grab them and throw them on the dance floor for a dance.  Zeke, just find someone to dance with.  I’ll deal with you later.  The song I’ll be singing is Only You by Yazoo.

[Spicy begins singing.]

[The crowd gets up, either getting their pair or going alone, and begins to dance in front of the stage.]

[Syrz walks over to Omar.]

Syrz: Will you, uh, share this dance with me?

Omar: Okay.

[VVZ walks over to Isabelle.]

VVZ: Would you like to dance with me?

Isabelle: I dunno, last time I danced with a robot, I died from neurotoxin gas, but okay!

[Vince goes over to Alice.]

Vince: Hey Alice, want to dance?

Alice: I would love to.

Vince: Thanks.

Alice: Now, let’s dance!

[Catalina walks to Zeke.]

Catalina: While your boyfriend is singing his heart out, wanna share this dance with me?

Zeke: Uh… okay.

Announcer: AND NOW WE’RE BACK TO WORLD DANGERS

Kitten: Dave, over here!

[The two are walking around in the corridors of the ancient place. The walls in the foreign place are crimson red, as it gets darker and darker as the moon rises in the sky.]

Dave: Uh… gee, Kitten. I… I don’t think we’re supposed to b… be here.

Kitten: Oh come on! Why should someone tell you what to do?

Dave: B… but you’re telling me what to do!

Kitten: Come on! Don’t you want to know the secrets of thi-

[Kitten is backing up when she is saying this, and accidentally bumps into the table behind her, dropping a vase.]

Kitten: Oops.

Dave: I’m g… glad I’m not a maid…

[Kitten laughs at his joke, which makes Dave more awkward than before.]

Kitten: Wait, what’s this?

[Kitten looks behind, where the vase is dropped, and sees a little note card.]

Dave: Wh… what is it?

Kitten: I don’t know, it just says “VKH ZLOO GLH[a]

Dave: What… what does that mean?

Kitten: I don’t know… oh well, let’s go check out the library!

Dave: Th… there’s a library?

Kitten: Well, of course, silly! Every mansion always has to have a library! Come on, you’ve been here longer than I have, didn’t you take the chances of exploration?

Dave: D… D… Dale and M… Morris disallows me to explore…

Kitten: Then stop following their orders, and start exploring!

[Kitten is cheerful, running around the entire place with Dave following behind shyly.]

Kitten: Found it!

[Kitten looks into the library: it is humongous, full of books and papers are scattered all over the place.]

Kitten: I’m getting some deja vu… oh well!

[Kitten explores the books, throwing all of them away and saying “Boring!”. Dave picks up some of the mess behind her.]
Kitten: Ah, well. I guess we should—

[Dave suddenly accidentally flicks a switch when picking up a book, revealing a secret passage.]

Kitten: Yes! I knew there just had to be a secret passage in the library!

[Dave walks in, opening the door for Kitten, then going in himself. They slowly walk down the stairs, the steps of which are hard and cold. The moonlight starts fading away, being replaced by an artificial, golden light emitted from copious candles. The room they stumble upon is dark in the front, where none of the light reaches.]

Dave: I… I’m scared…

[Dave holds onto Kitten’s arm.]

Kitten: Hey!—Get off me!

[Kitten shrugs Dave off, continuing onwards.]

Kitten: This place gives me the chills…

[They stop at the front of the room, where they spot a glowing, green heart-shaped crystal. Kitten turns to Dave, who is still petrified and staring at the artifact. Kitten rolls her eyes, looking at the crystal. She carefully sneaks forward to grab it, but when she touches it, it begins to luminesce a blinding white light.]

Kitten: GAH! Ow!

Dave: My eyes!

[Suddenly, a rumble begins, and the candles on the sides start lighting up crimson one by one, and soon, crimson curtains hiding a painting are dropped. However, the painting has a big, red X on it.]

Dave: W… who is that!?

Kitten: It’s… no… it’s Catalina!?

???: A’’f,v v’e,, p’eff,,

Kitten: Oh, no… it’s her…

Dave: W… what!? What’d she s—say!?

Kitten: She said “THERE’S NO ESCAPING THE EVIL WITHIN”

Dave: What!?

[Spicy starts singing “Only You by Yazoo”.]

[Videm and Abby walk up to each other.]

Videm: Would you like to, you know, dance with me?

Abby: I would love to.

[Videm and Abby hold hands, dancing together.]

Spicy: Looking from a window above ♫

[Jeffrey grabs Madison’s hips as Madison grabs his hips.]

Spicy: ♫ It’s like a story of love ♫

[Catalina and Zeke sway back and forth in each other’s arms.]

Spicy: ♫ Can you hear me? ♫

[Spicy’s singing continues in the background.]

[Syrz and Omar are dancing calmly, when suddenly Omar steps on Syrz’s toe.]

Syrz: Ow!

Omar: Sorry…

Syrz: Hasn’t anyone ever taught you how to dance with a lady?

Omar: Sorry…

Syrz: It’s fine.  Just don’t make it happen again.

[Zeke and Catalina talk softly while dancing.]

Zeke: You look, uh, nice.

Catalina: You don’t have to act like we’re a couple, I know you’re probably uncomfortable.

Zeke: It’s fine…

Catalina: You both are such good singers.

Zeke: Oh, I guess… I’m a better artist than I am a singer.

Catalina: Then you must be a really good artist…

Zeke: Eh, I guess…

Spicy: ♫ Only you… ♫

[Jeffrey and Madison talk while dancing.]

Jeffrey: This is a beautiful night.

Madison: It sure is, and you had pretty singing.

Jeffrey: Aw, thanks.

Madison: Spicy is pretty good too.

Jeffrey: Yeah, they are.

[VVZ and Isabelle are doing the Scientific Slow Dance.]

Isabelle: I remember when I did this with Dr. Marv.

VVZ: Is Dr. Marv your acquaintance?

Isabelle: No… not really…

VVZ: Are you best friends?

Isabelle: Yes, we’re close, but he never asked me out, and I’m too afraid of him rejecting me…

VVZ: Would you like me to search up “Confidence”?

[Isabelle chuckles.]

Isabelle: Smart and sarcastic, just like Dr. Marv.

Spicy: ♫ All I needed was the love you gave ♫

[Vince and Alice are dancing together.]

Vince: Wow, Alice, you’re great at dancing.

Alice: I know I am. *smiles and spins*

[Kitten and Dave are in the secret room, freaking out.]

Kitten: What do we do about this!? How do we stop this!?

Dave: I… I… I…

Kitten: JUST SPEAK YOUR WORDS!

Dave: I CAN’T SPEAK WHEN I’M FREAKING OUT!

[Kitten stares at the painting.]

???: A’’ffv, ,’ffv de’’v,

Dave: WHAT DID SHE SAY!?

Kitten: SHE SAID “MEND THE RIFT NOW!”

Dave: WHAT DOES THAT MEEEEAAAAAN!?

Kitten: I DON’T KNOW! I’M PANICKING TOO MUCH!

???: P’vee, E’,,vv,,,’ ‘ee,va’’’ dee’’’’,,,,

Dave: WHAT DID SHE SAY THIS TIME!?

Kitten: UHH… I’M NOT ALLOWED TO SAY THOSE WORDS!

???: V’ee ,dd’e va’’, e,v’’

Kitten: RUN!

[Kitten and Dave run across from the burning painting, smoke filling the room. The pillars in the room fall down, causing Kitten and Dave to separate. Kitten screams and falls towards the stairs, while Dave is stuck behind the pillar. Kitten gets back up and sprints towards Dave.]

Kitten: DAVE!-

Dave: JUST GO! GO WITHOUT ME, PLEASE!

Kitten: NO, I HAVE TO SAVE YOU-

Dave: SHH… I’LL BE OKAY…

[Kitten quickly hugs Dave to the best of her efforts, sobbing, but slowly goes back and up the stairs.]

Dave: GO! GO FOR ME!

[Kitten runs up the stairs, gasping for air, while the crimson fire is crawling all around her. She quickly runs through the corridors, eventually ending up in the main hall. There, she sees a crimson spirit.]

Kitten: STAY AWAY!

???: T’v,ee,, ,’errv,, ‘ee,…

[Kitten stands shocked.]

Kitten: P… PLEASE, NO!

[The crimson fire then strikes upon Kitten, and the crimson spirit laughs, going into the crimson fire with her.]

Spicy: ♫ All I needed was the love you gave

[Abby and Videm have their noses close to each other, smiling.]

Videm: You know, the first time I laid my eyes on you, and the first time I heard your sweet voice, I knew this was love.

[Abby laughs.]

Abby: I love you too…

Spicy: ♫ And all I ever knew, only you ♫

[Abby and Videm kiss passionately, when all of a sudden, the ground rumbles from beneath them, and the whole mansion starts glowing.]

Isabelle: What’s going on in there!?

Madison: EEK!

[The tables and the stage start breaking a little.]

VVZ: I’m, I’m feeling this new emotion… of… of my heart beating fast, and MY URGE TO SHOUT!

[They all run around panicking.]

Jeffrey: We gotta get out of here!

[They run over to the mansion, avoiding the trees as much as they can. The sky begins to darken, and the clouds begin to turn crimson red. They all stood in front of the mansion.]

Videm: Kitten is in there, I have to save her!

Isabelle: Dr. Marv!—I’m coming with you too, Videm!

[They both burst into the mansion, which is on fire. They both run over to their rooms. Isabelle runs into Dr. Marv’s room, and Videm into Kitten’s room.]

Isabelle: Dr. Marv?! Dr. Marv! Are you conscious!?

[Dr. Marv does not reply, so she carries him with his best efforts.]

Videm: Kitten!? Kitten!

[Videm does not see Kitten.]

Videm: Oh no, I hope you didn’t go exploring again!

[Videm runs down the stairs very quickly, and suddenly, he sees Kitten on the ground.]

Videm: Kitten!

[He dashes over to her, then bends over her.]

Videm: Kitten, talk to me!

[The flames are getting stronger, so Videm tries grabbing her, but is hit back with a mysterious force.]

Videm: GAH!

[Videm runs over to Kitten again, successfully taking her and leading her out of the mansion. Isabelle follows behind.]

Abby: Kitten! Oh no!

[Everybody is shocked, looking up at the blazed mansion. Morris then runs over to them, then sees the fire.]

Morris: Oh no, oh no no no!

[Morris kneels down at the front porch, seeing destruction.]

Morris: This is a mess…

~Morning~

[Videm gets up from the sandy ground, seeing only the sunshine that is peeking in the early morning. He looks up at the mansion. It is fully intact.]

Videm: Wait… what?! But… how?

[Videm turns around to see the group all sleeping.]

Videm: Guys, get up! Everyone, get up! The mansion isn’t broken at all!

[Everyone gets up, except Kitten, who is still unconscious. After a few minutes, they all go back to their rooms, not questioning anything since they are all exhausted from the party.]

[Videm carefully puts Kitten in her bed, sighing, then kissing her on the forehead.]

Abby: Sh… she’ll be awake in no time…

Videm: I hope so, I really do hope so…

[Kitten’s door is closed, and the camera pans over to Kitten’s face. Suddenly her eyes open, but it is crimson and black, instead of brown. She smiles, then laughs malevolently.]

Outro

Dave: Uh… uh… hello?! Anybody?!

[Silence]

Dave: Somebody, I need help getting out of this… this pillar stuck on top of me!

[Silence]

Dave: Kitten?! Dale?! Please?… I need to go to the bathroom really badly…

[Silence]

Dave: I… I have a feeling I’m going to be here for a while…


Episode 7 - The Flight of the Bronzed Temple

Videm: 2-2!

[They are playing volleyball out on the beach. They’d set up two nets for two games. Videm, Sam, Omar, and Jeffrey are up against Abby, Syrz, Scarlett, and Madison. Spicy, Vince, and Zeke are up against Catalina, Alice, and Sara.]

[Syrz is serving.]

Syrz: I do not believe I am doing this right.

Catalina: Just put your back into it!

Syrz: I’m guessing you know how to play this game?

Catalina: No, I have no idea how to play this game.  Now, hit it over that… uh, net thing!

[Syrz hits the ball, which hits Videm in the head.]

Videm: OW! I think you just broke my brain!

Sam: You mean your skull?

Videm: No, I think my brain literally snapped in half?

Spicy: My turn!  4 serving 3~!

[Spicy hits the ball over the net, and Alice hits the ball over.  Vince sends it back, and it flies past Syrz.]

Syrz: Oh, were you expecting me to get that?  I could’ve gotten my dress dirty.

Vince: Yay! A point!

Spicy: 5 serving 3!

[Spicy serves again.  Sara sends it over with a ‘Ew’, Zeke hits it, but it doesn’t make it over.]

Spicy: That’s okay.

[Abby loses the ball.]

Omar: Yeah!

Videm: 17-8!

[Videm serves the ball.  Madison hits it over, then Sam loses it.]
Madison: Who’s laughing now!?

Videm: Darnit, Sam!

Sam: I didn’t quite do that right o-o.

Videm: I’ll serve this time.

[Videm serves the ball, but it bounces against the pole, then hits Videm back in the face.]

Videm: OW! Man, I suck at sports.

[Omar picks up the ball, then serves it perfectly, causing the ball to hit in their square and Jeffrey’s team to win a point.]

Sam: Did we win yet?
Vince: No, Sam. Just no.

Videm: Nice, Omar!

Omar: Thank you.

[VVZ, Dr. Marv, Isabelle, and Minami are sitting at the table on the front porch and discussing a few topics.]

Dr. Marv: I want to thank you, again, for saving me.

Isabelle: No problem, well, except for the giant amount of fire that was in the mansion.

Dr. Marv: I wonder… what caused the fire, and how did the mansion become intact after we woke up?

Minami: I have no idea.

Isabelle: I’m… not entirely sure either. I’m certainly not complaining, however.

[Dr. Marv lets out a little chuckle, which makes Isabelle smile.]

VVZ: Videm’s daughter, Dr. Marv, and Dave were inside the mansion at the time.

Isabelle: It must’ve been Dave cooking on his own, perhaps.

Dr. Marv: No… no kitchen fire would combust that quickly, neither should it have caused the ground to shake so violently.

Isabelle: Good point, Doctor.

Dr. Marv: My theory is it must’ve been Kitten exploring around the area, somehow causing weird magic.

Isabelle: And… now you have a weak point.

Dr. Marv: Well, how else could there have been an earthquake?

Isabelle: Pure coincidence.

Dr. Marv: That coincidence would be so low, that it would’ve never just been a coincidence.

[Dr. Marv ponders for a second.]

Dr. Marv: And as for the mystery rebirth of the mansion, that must’ve been related to Kitten as well.

Isabelle: How could Kitten be so damaging? She’s only a girl.

Dr. Marv: Somehow, these events have, I mean, she was transformed into Abby’s daughter in the process.

Isabelle: I still think this is all just pure coincidence…

[Videm and Abby visit Kitten’s room. Videm slowly opens the door, then sighs in relief seeing Kitten still in the bed.]

Abby: Is she still alive?
Kitten: *cough* Yes… mom?

Abby: Kitten? Oh thank god.

[Abby rushes to her, hugging her.]

Kitten: Ow, *cough* you’re hurting me.

[Abby lets go, then both Videm and Abby sit on the bed next to her.]

Abby: Oops, sorry…

Videm: Kitten, do you know what caused the fire?

Kitten: I… I don’t remember too much, *cough* all I remember was… was that lady…

Abby: Who?

Kitten: I don’t… I don’t remember… *cough*

Videm: Well, I hope you get better.

[Videm and Abby walk away.]

[The group eats lunch, then Morris announces their next adventure.]

Morris: Once you have finished eating, you shall begin your next adventure.

Omar: Yes! Finally!

Vince: Yay!

Abby: I wonder where we’re going.

[The group quickly finishes their meals, and heads into the portal room.]

Morris: Alright, VVZ, have you kept your object?

VVZ: Correct.

[VVZ opens his trunk, picking out a shimmering diamond.]

Morris: Spectacular job. Now you may insert it.

[Morris steps aside, revealing the bronze portal. VVZ walks over to the portal, and on the top (where the slot was), he puts the shimmering diamond in. VVZ backs away slowly, as the portal begins to shake, and swirling things start appearing in the frame. The portal’s rift slowly starts appearing, and once it does, it is green and brown.]

Videm: Alright, guys, let’s go!

[The group walks into the portal, eventually ending up in the daytime jungle, where there are many huge leaves and giant trees that cover some of the daylight.]

Madison: We’re in a jungle?…

Dr. Marv: It appears to be so.
[The group looks around, sticking together.]

Omar: Oooo, what is this animal?

[Omar pokes Syrz.]

Syrz: Hm?  Why are you poking me?

[Suddenly, a loud roar is heard, and the ground rumbles in sync.]

Dr. Marv: This is fine.

Videm: What was that!?

[All of a sudden, a giant ape comes out of nowhere, then starts inspecting the people.]

Isabelle: *whispers*Whatever you do… don’t make any sound…

Jeffrey: *whispers* Don’t cha worry child, I’ll be quiet

Madison: Shhh.

[The ape looks at Isabelle, then Catalina, then Zeke, then Omar, then stops at Madison. It roars again, taking Madison away.]

Jeffrey: MADISON!

Vince: My god this sh is bananas, B-A-N-A-N-A-S!

Videm: Holy crap, we have to save her!

Madison: *in a distance*OH MY GOD! SAVE ME!

Dr. Marv: Don’t worry, if we can stop a time bandit, we can stop a giant ape.

[Dr. Marv runs towards the direction of the ape, and the group follows behind.]

Sara: Ew! I hate running! It gets my hair all messy!

Alice: Your hair looks fine, Sara.

Videm: GAH! Stupid bugs that float in the air for no reason and get stuck on your face!

[Suddenly, they stop as they see the ape go into a huge bronze temple. Most of them are in awe at the sight.]

Dr. Marv: What a magnificent view.

VVZ: These temples were created during the Negative age, as a way to prevent Zeryx’s forces from destroying the beings of this very jungle.

Jeffrey: Negative…? Whatever, let’s get Madison

[They walk over to the temple, entering it.]

Videm: I’m getting some deja vu… Oh well!

[The temple is dark and murky. Vines had grown on most of the walls. Luckily, there are torches that are still lit up, but there are a few traps that surround the area.]

[Videm accidentally steps on a pressure plate, and a rock is pushed against his side, making him fall.]

Videm: OW! What the heck!?

Catalina: Watch out for traps!

Abby: What is this?

[Abby looks at a chest, then opens it. A little tune played, revealing a little, yellow heart crystal.]

Jeffrey: Where’s Madison? Darn it.

Dr. Marv: I’ll follow you to aid you on the journey to find Madison.

[Jeffrey and Dr. Marv walk forward, whilst the rest look around the temple.]

Dr. Marv: This place is quite spooky…

[Suddenly, a buff man appears in front of them as a torch lights up. The man roars, then laughs.]

Man: Lookee ‘ere, a couple of for’ners!

Jeffrey: Who are you?! Where’s Madison?

Man: Who’s Mad-i-son?—Hey! Ain'tcha got some of ‘em valuables?

Dr. Marv: What are you, a bandit?!

Man: Exactly, this sm’rt man!

Dr. Marv: Let us through!

[The man stares at them fiercely.]

Man: You ain’t goin’ through so easily!

Jeffrey: *directed at Dr. Marv* I don’t think we can get past him

[Dr. Marv nods.]

Man: Eenie meenie miney mo, who’s that great big man that’s going to RIP OFF YOUR TOES!?

Dr. Marv: Not you!

[Dr. Marv takes out a blue gel container, carefully gripping it into his hands. The Man begins running towards Jeffrey and Dr. Marv; Jeffrey is screaming, whilst Dr. Marv is readying for his assault.]

Dr. Marv: Taste this, blubbering fool!

[Dr. Marv swiftly opens the container, then throws the blue gel at the man, who is splattered with slimy, bouncy gel. He is bounced back due to this, and his back hits the wall. He groans in pain.]

Jeffrey: Whoa, that was cool.

Dr. Marv: I sometimes did that to test subjects, they were thrilled, in some ways.

[Dr. Marv and Jeffrey head further into the temple, as the amount of lit torches start dwindling. It gets colder, but it also gets warmer at the same time.]

Announcer: WE’LL BE BACK RIGHT AFTER THE COMMERCIAL BREAK

Here at Bird on a Tree Cookie Co. we’re happy to announce our new cookie! Now, you may be wondering, what new flavor could top all the other ones like chocolate chip, rainbow, dark chocolate, or ultimate lemon creme? Well, it probably won’t top the other flavors, but we’re giving it a try because we’re desperate for money! I mean what…

Anyway, introducing our new cookie flavor! Chocolate Barf Banana Creme Pie! It’s still being tested, but don’t worry, it’ll tickle your palate, tongue, and belly (and maybe even your pickle if you know what I mean *wink wink*) once you take your first bite! Look, I’ll give someone this cookie, and see how they react!

[Screen flips to a reactor taking a bite out of the cookie.]

Random Person: OH god! This cookie is disgusting! *spits out*

[The reactor then runs to a garbage can, barfing.]

See, he loves it so much that he wants more! Let’s give him some more.

Random Person: Wait, what?!

[A worker runs up to the reactor and shoves five cookies in his mouth then the screen flips back to the spokesman.]

See, what did I tell you? People will love this new flavor! Satisfactory guaranteed. This product is also made from real barf, creme pie, and chocolate powder I received from my mother’s toilet!

Order now!

Announcer: AND NOW WE’RE BACK TO WORLD DANGERS

[Videm and Minami enter a strange room.]

Videm: How long are they going to take?

Minami: I don’t know, to be honest…

[Videm looks around, seeing a few puzzle pieces.]

Videm: Wait a minute… these look exactly like…

[Videm shoves his hands in his pocket, then quickly brings out the tablet. With two hands, he holds it up in the air to align the tablet with the puzzle piece, and it does indeed have one of the shapes on the tablet. Minami looks at Videm’s inspection, gazing curiously.]

Minami: Huh?…

[Videm puts down the tablet. He goes over to the strange puzzle piece, then pushes it. It glows as it is pushed into the wall, and suddenly a rumbling noise occurs around them.]

Minami: What the…

[They look around. Crumbling, tiny rocks drop from the ceiling, and the rumbling only grows louder. Videm looks behind Minami, seeing a boulder dashing at him.]

Videm: M—Minami! Look out!

[Minami turns around, gasping at the humongous boulder. Videm swiftly grabs Minami’s shoulder, then they bolt from the boulder.]

Minami: God damn that’s one huge boulder!

Videm: Focus on running from the boulder instead of observing it!

[They run faster, as the boulder rolls faster. They see the doorway that led them out. They run and run, eventually jumping through the doorway, falling onto the floor, as the boulder simply evaporates before it could crash through the doorway.]

Videm: AM I DEAD YET!?

Minami: I’M PRETTY SURE WE’RE BOTH DEAD, BECAUSE I CAN HEAR YOU TOO-

Catalina: What are you two doing on the floor?…

[Videm and Minami look up at Catalina, quickly scrambling up.]

Videm: Catalina! Do you remember that strange symbol on this—

[Videm searches around for the tablet, patting his pocket and all, but to no avail.]

Videm: Where is it!? Oh god, where is it!?

Catalina: What are you talking about?

Videm: The tablet! The wall had the same strange symbol as the one on the tablet, and so I pressed it. Next thing we know, we’re jumping from a boulder, possibly fracturing a few bones in the process…

[Videm limps over to the nearest furniture.]

Minami: Ugh… my head hurts from getting smashed by Videm’s body…

Videm: Hey, I saved your life! You should thank me.

Minami: That’s true. Sorry, and thanks mate.

Videm: Apology accepted.

[Abby walks in.]

Abby: Guys!?

Videm: Abby! What is it?

[Shouting and screams are heard from below.]

Abby: That must be Jeffrey and Dr. Marv! We have to save them!

Videm: Dr. Marv is fine on his own, didn’t you see him beat up that fashion guy?

Minami: I… I think it’s a good idea to make sure they’re in one piece.

Catalina: I agree, I hope no one is hurt.

Videm: Alright, alright. But how are we supposed to find them?

[The group walks over to where they last saw them.]

Catalina: It’s the only way…

[They start walking into the path of Dr. Marv and Jeffrey.]

[Down underneath, Dr. Marv and Jeffrey open a door, walking into a really dark room with no torches. Dr. Marv gets out his no-battery flashlight, then looks around with Jeffrey behind him.]

Dr. Marv: Strange… it looks to be another empty room.

Jeffrey: This is hopeless, I hope Madison is okay…

Dr. Marv: Wait! What was that!?

[Dr. Marv quickly points his flashlight somewhere, but he only spots a shadow flicker for a second.]

Dr. Marv: Something is here…

[Laughing echoes around in the temple, followed by a cackle. When Dr. Marv points the flashlight towards the end center of the room, revealing a strange figure wearing a golden robe and sparkly shoes. His chest is nothing but a rib cage, and his hands are fitted into white gloves. His head is that of a turtle, but his skin is as dry and colorless as the desert. He has a pointy nose and mouth, wearing a strange looking hat.]

Jeffrey: Who is THAT!?

???: AHAHAA!? VISITORS, I SEE!?

Dr. Marv: Reveal your identity!

???: SUCH RUDE VISITORS! MY NAME SHALL BE UNSPOKEN OF!

Jeffrey: Do you have Madison!? Where is she?!

???: OH! YOU MEAN THE WEAK BEING THAT RESIDES IN MY FEEDING CAGE TEMPORARILY? OF COURSE I DON’T!
Dr. Marv: We’re not idiots, you blubbering fool! I’ve got something up my sleeves, and it might just zip you up!

???: FINE! IF YOU TRULY WANT TO SEE YOUR WEAK HUMAN, THEN YOU’RE GONNA HAVE TO SEE HER GET EATEN. ALIVE!

[??? flips a lever, and suddenly, the lights turn on. A cage lowers from the ceiling, still hanging too high to reach from below. Inside the cage stands Madison.]

Jeffrey: Madison!

Madison: Jeffrey!

[Dr. Marv looks up, pulling out a grappling hook and aiming for the cage.]

???: AH, AH, AH! I DON’T THINK SO!

[??? shoots a beam, with his right hand, which has an eye in the middle of it, towards Dr. Marv. Dr. Marv is shot back, falling to the ground.]

Dr. Marv: GAH!

Jeffrey: RUDE!

[Jeffrey runs towards ???, but instantly holds back when ??? releases his pet chain-chomp.]

Jeffrey: EEK! What is that thing!?

[The pet glares at Jeffrey, sprinting towards him.]

Jeffrey: AHHH!-

[Just before the pet hits Jeffrey, Dr. Marv intervenes, punching the chain chomp in the face. It falls to the ground.]

???: GRR! THAT’S IT, IT’S TIME FOR BREAKFAST!

[??? pushes a button, which starts pulling the ground away from many directions, leaving pillars and ultimately blocking the exit from reach. Jeffrey and Dr. Marv are in the back, ??? in the very front, and the cage hangs in the middle of the room. Dr. Marv quickly parkours his way to each pillar, reaching higher and higher, whilst the cage lowers and lowers towards the deep dark, where nothing is seen, and only deep growling is heard.]

Dr. Marv: Jeffrey! Shoot an orange portal behind me when I say GO!

[Dr. Marv shoots a blue portal up on the wall behind Jeffrey. Dr. Marv throws the portal gun to Jeffrey, who catches it just barely. Dr. Marv then pulls out a big container of blue gel, throwing it to the wall beside him. Dr. Marv bounces against this blue gel, which propels him towards the opposite wall.]

Dr. Marv: GO!

[Jeffrey shoots an orange portal on the opposite wall, while Dr. Marv braces himself. He flies into the portal, and momentum carries him onto the cage.]

???: WHAT!? WHY… I! I, OKAY! THAT WAS PRETTY BADASS, I’LL ADMIT!

[Dr. Marv holds onto the roof of the cage, pulling out a device with magma displays on it. He shoots magma at the cage’s roof, which causes the top to melt, allowing Dr. Marv to pull Madison out. However, the cage had already reached too deep to easily get up to any pillar. The beast below them roars, as Dr. Marv and Madison cover their ears.]

Madison: Oh no… we can’t get up!

Jeffrey: D… don’t worry! I can save you!

[Jeffrey looks around for any tools.]

???: YOUR FRIENDS ARE DESCENDING INTO THEIR DESERVED DOOM! GOOD LUCK, MUAHAHAHA—AHCK ACKKK *COUGH* *HACK*

[Jeffrey then spots an emergency stop button, but there is quite a gap between him and the pillar next to the button.]

Jeffrey: If I die, uh… well, then I die, The End!

[Jeffrey walks close to the edge of the pillar. He looks down as a few rocks crumble into the deep pit. The monster roars again. Jeffrey takes a deep breath, looking at the pillar, walking back a little, then sprints and jumps off onto the pillar. He lands, almost falling off forward, but getting himself balanced. He then reaches for the stop button.]

???: NO WAIT! L—LET’S MAKE A DEAL! HOW ABOUT I GIVE YOU A HEART CRYSTAL, IN EXCHANGE FOR YOUR FRIENDS!

Jeffrey: Why would I ever want a heart crystal!?

Dr. Marv: Get the heart crystal!

Jeffrey: WHAT!? Don’t you want to be saved?!

Dr. Marv: Getting that heart crystal is more important than our lives! Trust me!

Madison: I didn’t agree to this, I don’t want to be food!

Dr. Marv: *whisper* Don’t worry, Madison. I’ve got a plan.

[Dr. Marv nods. Madison hesitates, but then nods. Dr. Marv looks up.]

Jeffrey: I… I don’t want to leave you, Madison!

Madison: Do it! Trust me, Jeffrey!

Dr. Marv: It’s the only way to save the world!

[Jeffrey bites his lips in the nerve racking situation, looks at the button, then backs away from it.]

???: GOOD! HERE YOU GO!

[??? throws the purple heart crystal down onto the cage.]

Jeffrey: WHAT!?

???: YOU GOT IT! NOW THE QUESTION IS, HOW!? AHAHAHAHACKCACNONFSOFHI

Dr. Marv: NOW!

[Dr. Marv shoots his grappling hook up onto Jeffrey’s pillar, grabbing Madison and the heart crystal, making his way up.]

???: NO!!! STUPID STUPID STUPID—

[??? hits his foot against the wall, injuring his foot.]

???: OWEE!

[Dr. Marv and Madison get up onto the pillar.]

Dr. Marv: Let’s get out of here! Jeffrey, go!

[Jeffrey shoots two portals, one on the wall next to them, and one onto the exit wall. They get through, exiting the room.]

???: NOOOOOOOOOOO!—

[The door is shut by Dr. Marv, then the three run up the stairs and towards the exit. Suddenly, they bump into the others.]

Videm: There you are! Oh, Madison! You saved her!

Minami: What took you guys so long?!

Dr. Marv: We were too busy trying not to die to the villain.

Catalina: You found the villain?

Dr. Marv: Yes, and you guys are going to see him pretty soon if we don’t leave this damned temple!

[They run towards the exit, eventually getting out of the temple. They rustled through the luscious leaves of the now sleeping jungle. Moonlight shines through the gaps above. All of them pant heavily. Eventually, they reach the portal, exiting the dimension.]

Morris: Ah, I see you have returned in one piece.

Videm: Geez! That was exhilarating!

Jeffrey: You’re telling us! We just had a near-death situation!

Madison: Guys, aren’t we supposed to fight him again?

Minami: Who, though?

???: Isabelle.

[They turned around, seeing the villain through the portal.]

Isabelle: What!? No… it can’t be…

Minami: You know this guy!?

Isabelle: It—he was one of the aliens we experimented upon in Aperture Science… Ikoni…

Ikoni: All these times, I thought I’d never see you again! AHAHAHAA!

Videm: I’m so confused…

[Isabelle walks towards the portal.]

Isabelle: You leave the group alone!

Ikoni: Oh, I don’t care about your stupid, puny gang! All I care about is getting revenge!

[Ikoni clenches his fist, glaring furiously. He runs towards the portal, shouting. Isabelle runs faster towards him. When they come into contact, she knocks him back onto the ground before he could get through the portal. They are in a huge, circular room, much like the bronzed temple. Groaning, Ikoni gets up, then quickly throws a punch at Isabelle, who is knocked back against the wall.]

Isabelle: AHH!

[Isabelle lies on the floor, with blood running down her nose. She looks at Ikoni, who is laughing maniacally.]

Ikoni: Look who’s getting punished now!

Isabelle: We… we said we were sorry! We compensated you!

Ikoni: Taking no responsibility for your actions, I see, director. ‘Sorry’ isn’t going to fulfill the debt! You’re in my lab now!

[Ikoni charges up a beam with both his hands, aiming towards Isabelle.]

Isabelle: Please! I… I’ll do anything!

Ikoni: Hehe, weak fool. You’ve always been that way. You’re a coward, too shy to know who you even really are. You’re just like Dr. Marv, blind to the sins you’ve committed. You tried nothing to stop my torture!

Isabelle: I… I didn’t want to betray—

[Ikoni shoots a painful beam at Isabelle, who impacts against the wall, leaving a large crack.]

Isabelle: G… god damnit! Just let me speak!

Ikoni: You should’ve used those words to break free of evil.

[Isabelle lies there, seriously injured, barely able to utter a response.]

[On the other side of the portal, the group watches Isabelle get attacked.]

Abby: Oh my god…

Minami: Shit, dude…

Dr. Marv: Isabelle…

Videm: Can’t we help her?!

[Videm starts running for the portal, but is stopped by Morris grabbing his arm.]

Morris: This is her fight. You cannot interrupt the process.

Videm: Then can’t you just explain why we’re here?! What’s our purpose!? Who are these villains?!

Morris: I understand your concerns, however, that is something I cannot reveal.

Videm: You can’t keep secrets forever, Morris.

[Videm lets go, glaring at him as he walks away from the portal.]

[Dr. Marv picks up a little note that contained her information. He smiles as he looks at it. He recalled back to the time he and Isabelle met.]

~Flashback~

Cave Johnson: … and that’s why your being isn’t allowed anywhere near here! Last thing I want is to feed and allow a Black Mesa worker to be able to mess with my stuff!

Dr. Marv: But, sir!—It’d… it’d be truly an honor to work here. This was my dream, to be a scientist in this laboratory! I even still have an Aperture Science curtain that my grandpa, who served in the army, gifted me!

Cave Johnson: Boy, I don’t care about your story. We’re slowly rising in numbers, and I don’t want to have to fall again just because of some Black Mesa workers!

Dr. Marv: You can trust me, I swear!

Cave Johnson: And why exactly should I!?

Dr. Marv: Mr… Mr. Johnson, please!

Cave Johnson: Listen here, boy, I either argue and fire, or I order and hir-

[Suddenly, the door knocked.]

Cave Johnson: Caroline, is that you!?

Person on other side: N… no sir Mr. Johnson.

Cave Johnson: Who is it!?

Isabelle: It’s me, Isabelle. Th—the director for the biology department.

Cave Johnson: Ah, yes, the person below Caroline. What do you want right now, I’m busy arguing with a smelly Black Mesa worker!

[Isabelle entered. Immediately, Dr. Marv widened his eyes. He remembered brown hair, with sharp hazel eyes, her perfect red lips and nose.]

Isabelle: It’s… it’s about the Port—I mean, Aperture Science Handheld Portal Device… It is now functional with biological life.

Cave Johnson: Ah! Just the news I wanted to hear!

[Isabelle looked at Dr. Marv, raised her brows, then looked back at Cave Johnson.]

Cave Johnson: Roger Marv Bolothen, get out of my office.

Dr. Marv: What? You didn’t even tell me a valid reason for the rejection!

Cave Johnson: Here’s my reason. Get out, Black Mesa worker, before you take my newly made Portal Gun.

Isabelle: Mr. Johnson, sir… I don’t mean to disrupt your conversation, but I… I can watch over this gentleman.

Cave Johnson: Hm…

[Cave Johnson thought for a minute, then stood up.]

Cave Johnson: Alright, boy, you’re lucky Isabelle is a hard worker. You’ve got a job.

Dr. Marv: Wh- really?!- I mean… Thank you, sir. It’s such an honor to-

Cave Johnson: I’ve heard that a million times, I know how you feel, boy. Just get to work now!

Dr. Marv: Yessir!

[Dr. Marv walked out, glancing at Isabelle, stopping, then going back to walking out.]

Cave Johnson: Well, what are you waiting for?! Lemons to come out of the sky? I directed that order to you too!

Isabelle: Yessir!

[Isabelle walked out.]

[Dr. Marv feels his heart warm at the thought of the scene. He looks up, glaring at Ikoni.]

Dr. Marv: You can’t stop me from saving her!

Morris: What?

[Dr. Marv runs through the portal before Morris could catch him, quickly throwing a punch at Ikoni. Morris bangs against the portal door, yelling at Dr. Marv to come back.]

Ikoni: GAH, FUCKING OW—What are you doing here!? Stay on your side of the portal!

Isabelle: Dr… Dr. Marv…

Dr. Marv: Isabelle!

[Dr. Marv swiftly slides on his knees over to Isabelle, looking over at her. He pulls out an aid-kit, when suddenly he is knocked sideways when Ikoni shoots a beam at him. He grunts in pain, getting up and aiming his Gravity Gun towards Ikoni.]

Ikoni: Ah, I see… a Gravity Gun from Black Mesa! Hehehe, I remember when they experimented on me.

[Dr. Marv shoots a blast of wind from his Gravity Gun, knocking back Ikoni, who hits the wall. Dr. Marv quickly goes back to aiding Isabelle. He applies a bandage to Isabelle’s shoulder, where it bled the most.]

Isabelle: Dr. Marv, you saved me…

Dr. Marv: Of course, I would do anything for you after you gave me the job…

Isabelle: I… I have something I’ve always wanted to tell you…

Dr. Marv: Yes?

Isabelle: I gave you that job out of love. I always adored your confidence, and your determination, you were the only less sweaty scientist who could speak properly to me… I wanted to ask you these words…

[She takes a deep breath.]

Isabelle: Will you go out with me?

[Dr. Marv looked surprised, but smiled at the same time.]

Dr. Marv: Sure, I can go out into the park with you.

[They both chuckle.]

Isabelle: There’s the Dr. Marv I know and love.

[Their eyes meet, but is quickly interrupted by Ikoni getting up. The couple gets up, staring at Ikoni.]

Ikoni: Aw, such chemistry! Too bad there can be a bad reaction!

[Ikoni charges up his final beam.]

Ikoni: If I die, you’re going down with me!

[The couple stands back, looking at each other. They nod, grabbing out their portal guns, then shoot directly at Ikoni. Ikoni shoots a beam before they shoot, but the beam is quickly stopped by the Portal gun’s bullet, which pierces through the beam and hits Ikoni’s ribcage, quickly shattering his whole body. Everyone spectating the fight cheers, except Morris, whose expression is stern. Dr. Marv and Isabelle high-five, then kiss each other.]

Isabelle: We should go back to the mansion. It’s been quite a day.

[They all agree, going back.]

Outro

Morris: Dr. Marv.

[Dr. Marv turns around to face Morris, whose brows are scrunched together.]

Morris: Do you understand how much you risked going into that portal?

Dr. Marv: What does it matter to you? If you’re on our side, why wouldn’t you want me to save Isabelle? Didn’t you see her? She was helpless!

[Morris closes his eyes, sighing.]
Morris: This is for everyone’s sake. These portals are much more than fighting evil. They’re for strengthening everyone for what may come later.

[Dr. Marv raises one of his eyebrows, then shakes his head.]

Dr. Marv: We can discuss this later, but for now, I need to tend to Isabelle.

[Dr. Marv walks away, leaving Morris standing in the hallway illuminated by one light. Suddenly, the light turns off on its own. Two crimson circles glow in the darkness, as the camera fades to black.]


Episode 8 - Trouble in Terror Town

[The group sits around the fireplace. Videm sits back with his hat on his face, Vince is on the floor, Spicy and Zeke are sitting together, Dr. Marv and Isabelle are cuddling, and Morris is sitting in front of the fire. The rest of the group are doing stuff.]

Spicy: Hey, Morris?  Do you have any scary stories?

Vince: S-scary stories?

Morris: I have a few stories that come to mind, why do you ask?

Spicy: I think a scary story would be fitting.

[Morris sits and thinks for a second, then stares at the group in front of the fireplace, looking scary.]

Morris: I suppose I have one, it is known as “Trouble in Terror Town”.

Omar: You mean the gamemode in Gmod?

Videm: I don’t think he means Trouble in Terror Town…

Alice: I am very excited to hear this story.

Morris: This story begins with two knights, named “Spice” and “Minarmi” who sought out for a vampire after a murder in the town.

Dr. Marv: Sounds spooky.

Vince: Spooky, scary skeletons.

Morris: Do you wish for me to tell the story?

Zeke: Yeah, it’s interesting.

Morris: Very well then.  The story begins in the town of Henselburg.

[The camera switched to Henselburg, where there were a few screams and shrieks. Many of the townspeople were running to the church, yelling to the Pope named “Dale the 1st”.]

Dale: Calm thyselves! The angels of the heavens will come down and answer thy—

Random Lady: The angels of our heavens could not have been involved with this commit!

Random Man: Murder! Bloody murder!

Dale: And thee?

Random Lady: The queen! She hath been brutally stabbed in the neck!

[Dale thought for a moment, then yelled.]

Dale: Thou shalt calm to seek heaven! Good, good. Now, the queen hath been bitten—no, stabbed in the neck. Correct?

Random Man: You are correct.

Dale: Good. Then it hath been frothed that this murder is indeed a vampire!

[The crowd of peasants gasped.]

Random Lady: You… you do perhaps mean Vincent!?

Random Man: Nobody dares visit that satan’s house!

Dale: Bring the knights!

[Suddenly, two brave knights, Spice and Minarmi, bolt into the church.]

Minarmi: Wherefore doth the lord call?

Spice: We, your mighty knights, cometh forth to serve you, sire!

Dale: Thou hast been called upon the lord, it has seemed, upon a committed murder!

Minarmi: A murder? Perhaps a fool shall call us down for that?

Dale: The lord is not a fool if he calleth for a murder done by a vampire!

Spice: A vampire?  There’s no such thing.

Random Man: The man up the hill, named Vincent, hath not visited the sun of the heavens before!

Spice: He is simply not a man of open air.  One shouldn’t assume what we aren’t sure of!

Minarmi: Hold on, my lord. Let us aside in privacy.

[Minarmi pulled Spice in the corner of the church, whispering to him.]

Minarmi: What demon hath possessed thee? We can be rich from this silly claim!

Spice: Thou hast a point, indeed.  Very well.  I shall play along.

[Minarmi and Spice walked to the front of the church, raising their voices.]

Minarmi: We shall commend this vampire’s body!

Dale: Praise the lord! Ye have been blessed to the purest! Now, ye shall go, now!

[Minarmi and Spice hopped on their horses, riding over to the hill of the mansion, but they were met by a gate guarded by two people.]

Vasilli: Halt, who shows up to Vincent’s residence?!

Minarmi: Let us breach, the lord hath awakened our slumber for our riches!

Vasilli: Where ye seek? Such foolery!

Spice: How about a deal?

[Vasilli whispered to Jeff, and he whispered back. They then both stare at Minarmi and Spice.]

Vasilli: Very well, then. Pay up 5 coins, and let thee through we shall!

Spice: Five coins?  What a great amount!  This will surely put me in great trouble, but I shall give you what you ask.

[Spice handed them the five coins, then the guards looked both ways, then back at them, then unlocked the gate.]

Vasilli: Quickly, quickly!

[Spice and Minarmi, on their horses, rode up onto the hill, which strangely had a lot of fog, and so it looked very spooky in the area. There were a few graves, so they both slowed down on their horses.]

Minarmi: Such a devastation! Who payeth for lands like these?

[They both made it through the mysterious fog, seeing strange things like a skeleton wearing a suit singing about love, and a few strange voodoo dolls. They were creeped out by this, so they hurried a little, eventually making it to the front door, which was huge. Minarmi and Spice looked at each other, then back at the door, knocking on it with power. They heard loud, yet slow footsteps, and the massive door creaked open.  On the other side stood a column of a man, with a black cloak.]

Vincent: Hello.  Wherefore have ye arrived at my doorstep?

Spice: We are… tax collectors.

Vincent: Tax collectors?  At this time of the year?

Minarmi: King’s orders.  Would you mind if we enter?

Vincent: I…

[Vincent hesitated.]

Vincent: Alright.

[Spice and Minarmi entered Vincent’s manor.  The first room they entered was beautifully decorated, with a beautiful fireplace at the front.]

Spice: Do you mind if we look around?

Vincent: Are you not supposed to be tax collectors?

Minarmi: You would not just throw us out, would you?

Vincent: Alright, look around.

[Spice and Minarmi walked into the kitchen, where they found three witches boiling a potion in a giant pot.]

Spice: Huh?  Who are ye?

Scarletta: We are the cooks!

Syraz: We make the special treats…

Sarah: …made of our cat’s feets!

Minarmi: Uh…

Scarletta: She’s joking, we don’t actually cook cat feet.

Spice: Right…

Minarmi: We should be going.

Sarah: Don’t die!

Scarletta: Sh—she meanteth “Goodbye”!

[Spice and Minarmi left the room, walking into the library to find two young men, both reading.]

Spice: Hello?  Are ye relatives of Vincent?

[Zoke looked up from his book, and his eyes locked with Spice’s.  He snapped out of it quickly, and answered hesitantly.]

Zoke: No, we’re just guests of the c—of Vincent.

[Dr. Monk looked up.]

Dr. Monk: What business do ye have here?

Spice: We cannot tell you.  It is a secret, and we can’t trust you.

Zoke: I think I know why ye are here.  All I can say is, just don’t trust him.

[Vincent entered the room.]

Vincent: There ye are.  I’ve decided to prepare a dinner for ye, where we can discuss those aforementioned… taxes.

[Zoke gave Spice a look, but Spice disregarded it and the three left the room.  The three travel up a tower, and at the top they find two giant crucifixes.]

Minarmi: What is the meaning of this!?

[The two suddenly blacked out.  An hour later, they awakened, tied to the crucifixes.]

Minarmi: That blasted…

Spice: Something is off about him… but I still refuse to believe he’s a vampire.

Spice: Maybe a mentally ill man?

Minarmi: We don’t need to worry about what he is right now, we just have to get down.

[The screen faded to black.]

Announcer: AND NOW WE’RE BACK TO WORLD DANGERS

[The screen showed the town that Spice and Minarmi came from.  Vincent was attacking the town, creating a huge massacre.  The three witches from the manor’s kitchen were using magic to create destruction as well.  Vincent crashed through the windows of the abbey Dale the 1st resided.]

Dale: Begone, foul beast!  Guards!

[The guards of the abbey ran toward Vincent, with halberds and giant shields, but were immediately knocked down by Vincent’s great force.]

Dale: P—please!  Almighty one!  Give me strength!

Vincent: Thine almighty one can’t save thee.  Hast thou not noticed?  I was able to enter a building of God with ease.

Dale: N—no!  Someone!

[Vincent impaled Dale’s stomach with one of the guards’ halberds.]

Dale: Oh, God no…

Vincent: Where are thine almighty heroes, now?

[The camera switched to the room the two heroes were trapped in.  Spice and Minarmi broke free of the crucifixes, then started running for the entrance.  They met Dr. Monk.]

Dr. Monk: He is at the town.  If thou hurries, thou mayest be able to save them.

Spice: Th—thank you…

Minarmi: Come on, Spice.  We’re running out of time.

[The two ran out of the manor, meeting Vasilli and Jeff, who pointed their weapons at the two heroes.]

Vasilli: Aye! To where do ye think ye are headed!?

Spice: I’m sorry for this…

[Spice and Minarmi attacked the two guards.]

Vasilli: GAH! YOU WILL PAY FOR YOUR SINS!

Minarmi: Come on, Spice.

[The two ran past the guards, heading for the town.  They arrived at the town, which was burning.  They started running for the abbey, but were stopped by the three witches.]

Scarletta: To where do ye think ye are headed?

Syraz: Our magic is stronger than thy puny weapons!

Sarah: Ew!  A bug!

[Sarah used a fireball to destroy a bug.]

Minarmi: Witches… of course.

[Spice and Minarmi faced off against the three witches.  Sarah threw a fireball at Minarmi, who barely dodged it, and the fireball hit a hay bale behind him.  Spice stabbed Syraz, who screamed in pain.]

Syraz: Oh!  The pain!  Have mercy!

Sarah: Or I’ll take thy little purse-y!

Syraz: Now isn’t the time, my dear sister!  I feel as though I’m about to… die!

[Syraz broke free of the sword, then pushed Spice away from her.  Sarah threw more fireballs at the two, and Scarletta and Syraz started using water and earth magic, respectively.]

Spice: They’re all using different types of magic…

Minarmi: Dost thou think they have weaknesses based on their elements?

Spice: Even if they did, we can’t use magic…

Minarmi: Maybe not, but we can trick them into using their own magic against them…

Spice: Huh?

Minarmi: Follow my lead.

[Spice took on Sarah, and Minarmi took on Scarletta.  Spice dodged Sarah’s fireballs, then made her face Scarletta.  Minarmi stood behind Spice, and the two fired their attacks.  The two got out of the way, and the projectiles of each witch met, causing an explosion knocking the two back.]

Spice: Now!

[The two stabbed their witch with their weapons, causing them to fade into darkness.]

Syraz: My sisters…

Syraz: You will pay for this!

Spice: You are the villain here, not us.  Tell Vincent to stop terrorizing this town, or we’ll kill ye.

Syraz: I wouldn’t be able to!  I don’t have any control over him!  My sisters and I were cursed so we’d have to…

[She was cut off by Vincent, who appeared behind her and slit her throat with a piece of broken glass.]

Syraz: Gh…

[Syraz faded into darkness.  The heroes faced Vincent.]

Vincent: Oh… what is this?  Are ye getting a sense of false bravery?

Spice: I don’t know what you are, and I don’t care… but you are going to pay for this!

Vincent: Right…

[Vincent disappeared and appeared behind Minarmi, hitting him in the back of the head.]

Minarmi: Gah!

Spice: Minarmi!

[Vincent attempted to stab Spice, but Spice grabbed Vincent’s wrist, and used force to break his wrist.]

Vincent: Gah!  Thou art a strong mortal, I’ll give thee that much…

Spice: Thanks.  Thou art a strong… whatever the fuck thou art.

Vincent: Why use such strong language?  Dost thou not know it’s rude?

[Vincent broke free of Spice, attempting to stab Minarmi, but Minarmi dodged the stab, and hit Vincent in the back with his sword.]

Vincent: Gah!  How… darest… thou!

[Minarmi ran toward a random bar in the distance.]

Minarmi: I’ll be back!  Just keep holding him off!

Spice: The fucking drunk…

[Spice and Vincent continued to battle, and Minarmi appeared behind Vincent, this time with a barrel.  He threw the barrel at Vincent’s head, making him fall to the ground.]

Spice: Thou… brought a barrel?

Minarmi: It seemed like a good idea.  Whatever, just attack him now!

[The two stabbed Vincent while he was down.]

Vincent: GAHHHHH!

[Vincent disappeared, and reappeared with a woman in a beautiful pink dress, wearing a crown of sorts.]

Vincent: Lowly guards, I’m sure ye have seen this woman, or heard of her.  This is Princess Isabelle.  If ye do not give me what I want, then this princess will forever be banished to my dungeon, with two bite marks on her neck.

Spice: You’ll turn her into a vampire!?

Vincent: Yes, that’s one way of putting it.

Minarmi: Wherefore?

Vincent: Destruction.  I want power, I want several things.  Things that thou peasants can’t give me.

Spice: Then…

[Spice whispered to Minarmi.]

Spice: What are we going to do?

Minarmi: I… don’t know…

Spice: …

[The two looked back at Vincent.]

Vincent: Do ye have nothing to say?

[The two looked at each other, almost in defeat.]

Vincent: (laughs) Alright, then…

[Vincent brought his face to Princess Isabelle’s throat, as she struggled to break free.  Suddenly, Vincent screamed out in pain.  He fell to the ground, along with Princess Isabelle, and Zoke could be seen with a bloodied wooden stake.]

Spice: Zoke!

Zoke: You seriously recalled my name?  I mean, yeah, I saved you guys.  Congratulations to me!  Okay, I’m going to go now.

Spice: Wait!

Zoke: Huh?

Minarmi: Thou seriously just saved the princess…

Princess Isabelle: I can speak for myself. I give my greatest gratitude to ye.

Zoke: Uh…

Princess Isabelle: Ye three are heroes.  Please, come meet with my father.  He will giveth ye the promised reward that the Pope is unable to giveth ye.

Spice: The Pope?  Why canst he not… oh, I understand.

Minarmi: At least he’s with the one he wouldn’t shut up about… God.

Princess Isabelle: Anyway, please come to the castle whenever ye three can.

[The princess walked off.]
Spice: Did we just allow the princess to walk off on her own?

Minarmi: The threat’s gone, so there’s nothing to worry about.

Zoke: Anyway, I should be off.

Spice: What about thine award?  ‘Tis thanks to thee we’re alive.

Zoke: I don’t need any award.  I only did what I thought was right.

 Spice: Please…?

Zoke: I’m going to go…

Spice: Well… if thou refuseth to take the king’s reward… then take this one.

[Spice grabbed Zoke, as if they were about to kiss him.  Then, they bit his neck.]

Minarmi: What the—!?

[Zoke fell to the ground.  Spice began to laugh maniacally, with blood trickling down their chin.]

Minarmi: What are you doing!?

[Spice laughed maniacally, and Minarmi’s scream could be heard as the screen faded to black and switched back to the group.]

Morris: Thus ends my story.

[Videm is holding on Morris' leg, shaking.]

Videm: T…th… that was nice…

Vince: Okay then…

[Abby laughs at Videm, who blushes.]

Zeke: Woah… that ending wasn’t what I expected… I thought Spice and Zoke were going to passionately mak-

[Zeke realizes that he’s saying this out loud, and shuts up immediately, his face red.]

[The clock rings as it strikes 12 AM.]

Morris: Perhaps you should return to your bedrooms.

[The group agrees, and heads back, all except Morris, who stands up, looking around the room, then sneaks into the secret hatch underneath him, climbing down the ladder. As he holds the latch above him, he glances around once more, his right eyebrow rising high, then he closes the latch above him, and the fireplace goes out.]

Outro

[The leaves begin to swiftly move to the wind’s tune, and the clouds over the horizon are rushing in. The storm grows closer, and so does the clashing waves that wash away the volleyballs from two days ago. In Kitten’s room, Kitten eyes are shut as she rolls around in her bed, while the storm gets closer and closer. Suddenly, thunder roars, and she gets up in sync. Her heart is pounding fast. The voice in her head echoes louder. Gulping, she gets up from her bed, then walks down to the main hall and into the dining hall. She tries fighting it, but has no choice but to go over to the fireplace in the dining hall. She picks up the Book of Pure Darkness. Her heart beats faster and faster, whilst the book shines brightly, but darkness surrounds the light at the same time. She exclaims, but her words fade into the void that is summoned. She lets go of the book, falling to the ground, gasping for her breath. Silence. She has control again, so she quickly gets up, and runs back to her room.]


Episode 9 - The Phantom Dungeon

Sharky: It’s such a wonderful world! Too bad it’s full of dangers!

[The TV displays a show called Survival. The whole group is sitting around in the living room, some looking at the TV, some doing other stuff, and some just sitting around and looking bored.]

Ark: Don’t worry, Sharky! We’ll catch him!

Jeffrey: This is soo boring.

Videm: Shush! This is an important episode of Survival!

Vince: *yawns*

[Omar stands up.]

Omar: Who wants to play?!

Sam: Does it have trains?!

Videm: Meh, I’m tired from last night.

Vince: Me too. That story was creepy.

[Omar looks around, spotting a few board games.]

Omar: How about we play this!?

[Omar picks up a board game called Monopoly. Nobody reacts. He groans.]

Omar: Come on! Nobody wants to play?!

Dr. Marv: Don’t we have a portal to go through?

Omar: Uh, rude!

Vince: *snrrk*

Videm: Oh yeah! Morris, do we have a villain to catch today?

Morris: Indeed, it would seem so.

[Everyone follows Morris, leaving Omar behind.]

Omar: Come on!

[In the giant cave, Morris’ voice echoes.]

Morris: So, who holds the key for the next portal?

[Isabelle pulls out a literal key from her lab coat pocket.]

Isabelle: Wow, this is abnormally big for a key, and rusty too.

Vince: That’s what she said.

[Morris allows Isabelle to put in the key, and when she does, the rift opens. The rift has several bone shapes and spikes.]

VVZ: Is this, perhaps, a dungeon of some sort?

Videm: A dungeon? YES! Minecraft has prepared me for this type of thing!

[Videm runs into the portal, followed by the others. They look around, and they are indeed in a dungeon. Several cells, some containing alive creatures, and some containing dead bones, are scattered across the walls. The ceiling is low, and the ground is made of hard rocks. The group looks around.]

Videm: Wow, look at this slime!

[The blue slime, although not having a face, looks up at Videm, then attacks him.]

Videm: OW! HELP ME!

[Videm runs around with a slime on his face, eventually hitting the wall, killing the slime and knocking Videm to the floor. Videm groans in pain.]

Omar: Lol.

Vince: *hits Omar* Don’t use slang in real life.

[Abby walks over to one of the cells, looking at a creature.]

Abby: Hi there! Do you know where the… jail owner… is?

[The creature looks at her, then looks back and crosses its arms.]

Abby: Oh, don’t look away, please! If we can find the big bad guy, we might be able to free you!

[The creature slowly turns, raising its eyebrows.]

Abby: Do you speak English?

Creature: The big bad guy’s o’er ther’ in the office.

[The creature points at a pink, sparkly door.]

Abby: That’s… interesting…

[Abby signals the others towards the door, and the group follows, entering the room. The room is very bright and pink, and the floor is carpet matching the walls. The room itself is huge, containing some couches along the sides. At the end is a bed and a throne, on which sits a princess.]

Princess: GET ME FOOD COWARDS!!!!

[The group is shocked by the yelling, taking a step back.]

Dr. Marv: What an improper princess.

Vince: *snrrk*

[The Princess glares at the group.]

Princess: Who do you think you are!?

Videm: We are the power rangers!—no wait, do we even have a group name?

VVZ: I do not believe so.

Videm: OOoo I know, we should be called The BAR!

Dr. Marv: That’s a stupid name.

Princess: SILENCE!

[The Princess waves her arms angrily at them.]

Princess: What do you fools want?!

Dr. Marv: We’re here to defeat you, and you know what we’re talking about.

Princess: Oh… the time has already come?…

[The Princess walks down the room and towards them slowly.]

Princess: I… need to calm down with food, first. How about we talk this out with a little dinner?

Videm: YES! I’m starving, we haven’t even had breakfast yet.

VVZ: I don’t think we should…

Omar: Yeah, me too!

Vince: Dinner? With this crazy lady?

[The Princess ignores Vince.]

Princess: Very well, then. My name is Princess Giffany. Follow me, or else…

[Princess Giffany gives a quick glare at the group before exiting the room. The group follows her.]

Vince: She’s weird.

Dr. Marv: There’s definitely something fishy going on, we’ve gotta find her secrets… Vince and Omar, come follow.

Omar: Okay.

Vince: Okay! :D *starts humming Little Einsteins*

[The group heads to dinner, while Vince, Omar, and Dr. Marv head back into her room.]

Servant: Halt! Who passes into Princess Giffany’s room without her presence?

Vince: Um… look over there, is that a narwhal? *points in a random direction*

Servant: Where!?

[The servant looks to where Vince is pointing.]

Dr. Marv: Now!

[Omar sprints towards the servant, smacking him in the face. Dr. Marv shoves on mechanical gloves, taking the servant by the neck, then throwing him against one of the couches, breaking it in the process.]

Vince: Um… you know guys, we could’ve just ran in instead of killing the poor guy…

Servant: O… ow… I don’t feel my face anymore…

Vince: Be quiet, random guard! *smacks*

[The final smack kills the servant.]

Vince: Um… let’s just go…

Omar: Okay then…

Dr. Marv: There may be more guards, so keep an eye out from behind us. You never know, there could be ninjas.

Vince: You mean like those guards? *Points to a bunch of guards running towards us*

Omar: Oh god no!

[The trio jumps at the guards, smacking and punching them. Most of the guards hold back due to fear, some wetting their pants.]

Dr. Marv: Alright, guys, try and find something in this room.

[They look around for any documents or diaries. Omar walks towards the bed that is surrounded by pink, semi-translucent drapes. He reveals behind the drapes a large, brown book, titled: “NOT A DIARY, IGNORE THIS PLEASE”.]

Omar: I found something!

Dr. Marv: Marvelous, you found it!

[Omar hands Dr. Marv the book, who reads through it.]

Dr. Marv: “Dear Diary, today I”—okay that is really… odd, I’m not reading this out loud.

[Dr. Marv skims through each page, stopping on one.]

Dr. Marv: Ah! “Dear Diary, the time has come where I have to prepare for the day of vengeance… The day where I shall finish off the dangerous group she was talking about…”

Omar: Boring!

Vince: *snrrk*

Dr. Marv: This is confusing… I thought we already knew this, but who is this “she” Giffany is talking about?

Omar: I don’t know…

Dr. Marv: This is truly strange. Have you found anything yet, Vince?

Vince: Nope! :D

Dr. Marv: Well, then, perhaps we shall then go to dinner. We should be able to figure out the strange thoughts of Giffany…

[The three walk to the dinner table, where the rest are eating butter-drenched lobsters and the rarest steak. Suddenly, Princess Giffany slams the table and stands up with a vicious glare.]

Princess Giffany: WHERE HAVE YOU HOOLIGANS BEEN?

[Everyone is startled, looking at Princess Giffany and then three. Dr. Marv raises one of his brow, humming.]

Dr. Marv: We were just… preparing ourselves.

Omar: Yeah.

Princess Giffany: For supper?—whatever, just take a seat, and we will… discuss.

Vince: *whispers to Omar* She’s weird…

[The three sit down, still skeptical, and begin eating. She sits back down on her comically enormous throne for a dining chair.]

Princess Giffany: Enjoying your meal, so far?

Scarlett: *with mouth full* IT’S SO GOOOOOD!!

Princess Giffany: Excellent. Now…

[Princess Giffany takes a deep breath, motioning her hands over herself as if adjusting her mood. She smiles.]

Princess Giffany: Please excuse my disgusting behavior. I had a bad day.

Abby: What about your day made it bad?

Princess Giffany: Well, I woke up with super messy hair, and when I went to brush and wash it, the water in the well was strangely empty. I ripped one of my favorite dresses by accident when beat—I mean… helping a prisoner, in some ways…

Scarlett: Ugh, I always have those days. I hate my life.

Dr. Marv: Why exactly is your throne room down here in the dungeons?

Princess Giffany: My parents found me annoying, so they stuck my throne room down here in the dungeon. Let’s just say, it’s toughened me up a lot.

[Princess Giffany glances around the dinner table, glaring at some people.]

Princess Giffany: So…

[Princess Giffany taps her fingers in sequence, from thumb to pinky, on the armchair.]

Princess Giffany: How about a deal?

Dr. Marv: What deal?…

Princess Giffany: If you don’t banish me from life, I shall grant you all one wish. No loopholes, no tricks, and no button eyes either.

Dr. Marv: I’m not sure—

Scarlett: Ooo, ooo, can I have a new umbrella?

Vince: You already have one.

Scarlett: I want a new one! Besides, nobody asked you, Vince!
Vince: Well fine then.

Princess Giffany: Only if you keep me—

Minami: May I have unlimited wish—

Princess Giffany: No! I said—

Omar: I WANT PUSS—

[Princess Giffany slams the table.]

Princess Giffany: SHUT U—I… I mean, please be quiet. Thank you. Now, if you let me leave through the portal, and let me into your dimension, then I shall grant each and every one of you a wish.

Dr. Marv: I decline.

Videm: I decline to your decline!

Dr. Marv: How do you trust the villain we’re supposed to defeat?

Videm: Well, maybe she’s not the villain we’re looking for.

Princess Giffany: That is correct, I am not the villain for which you seek. You are, perhaps, mistaking me for my evil twin sister.

Minami: Who else would be the villain?

[Princess Giffany grins as she stares at Minami.]

Princess Giffany: I’m not sure. Regardless, may I just enter the portal now?

[Dr. Marv pulls out his portal gun, and everybody stands shocked, including Princess Giffany.]

Princess Giffany: What do you think you’re doing?!

Dr. Marv: You can’t trick us. Give up your evil-doings.

[Princess Giffany, grinning even more, raises both her hands.]

Princess Giffany: GUARDS!

[Suddenly, her eyes flash a bright crimson, and suddenly ten buff guards spawn. They begin running towards the group, who runs away.]

Omar: AHHHH!

[Dr. Marv still stands there. As a guard rushes towards him, he swiftly shoots a portal below him then another onto the high ceiling, which causes the guard to fall down. Another guard tries grabbing him, but he shoots the portal gun at the guard’s chest, causing a black hole to spawn in his chest, and everything inside explodes outside. The final guard stands there, bewildered. Dr. Marv grabs a plate from the dining table, then frisbees it at the guard, which loudly bangs against his metal helmet, causing him to fall. Dr. Marv then faces Princess Giffany, pointing the portal gun directly at her.]

Princess Giffany: You wouldn’t kill a woman, now would you?

Dr. Marv: I would kill any woman, including GLaDOS.

Princess Giffany: You’re such a fool, Dr. Marv. You can’t stop me from mending that rift with the heart crystals!

[Dr. Marv lowers his gun, looking perplexed.]

Dr. Marv: What?!—

[All of a sudden, Princess Giffany magically shoots a pink, but deadly, beam at Dr. Marv, who is shot back and knocked unconscious. Princess Giffany grins once again, cackling.]

[The group runs all around the dungeon, dodging the seven guards that are sprinting towards them. Catalina runs, but comes across a dead end. She looks back, but a guard is blocking her way. However, she does not stop running; she instead jumps onto the wall, flips, grabs her knife in mid-air, then slashes at the guard several times, effectively killing him. Vince slaps and kicks all of the guards, also providing support to everyone else.]

Videm: Wait—where’s Dr. Marv?

Dr. Marv: RIGHT HERE!

[The group turns around, seeing Dr. Marv whose eyes are now solidly pink with a malicious grin.]

Minami: What the hell!?

Dr. Marv: HELL IS THE RIGHT TERM FOR YOUR FATE! You should’ve gotten rid of this fool a long time ago, but I GUESS I’LL HAVE TO DO THAT MYSELF!

[Dr. Marv, controlled by Princess Giffany, holds up a toxic gel container, slowly opening it.]

Isabelle: No! Stop it!

Princess Giffany: Tell me where the portal is, and you get to keep your stupid scientist. Otherwise, IT’S SWEET DREAMS TO HIM!

[Princess Giffany slowly raises up a gel container to Dr. Marv’s lips.]

Abby: I know where the portal is!

[Princess Giffany stops and makes Dr. Marv grin.]

Princess Giffany: Oh really? Why don’t you just tell me!?

Isabelle: Let go of Dr. Marv first!

Princess Giffany: I don’t abide by changes in deals, little lady! Let me through the portal first, THEN I’ll let go of him!

Abby: Fine! It’s next to the black, furry creature’s cell that’s diagonal from your room’s door.

[Princess Giffany, still controlling Dr. Marv, walks over to the location, touching the area on the wall where the portal once was. It opens once again. The wind blowing from the portal waves Dr. Marv’s messy hair.]

Princess Giffany: AHAHAHAHAHA!

[Princess Giffany walks into the portal.]

Videm: Uh, we should’ve probably thought about her tricking us…

Scarlett: We are so stupid.

Minami: Let’s get him!… Or her!

[The group follows Minami through the portal, as they stop to see Morris walking backwards, looking at Princess Giffany with an angry face.]

Morris: Dr. Marv—what’s gotten into you!?

Princess Giffany: I’ve got BIG plans for you too, old man!

Morris: What are you talking about!?

[Princess Giffany throws a punch at Morris, but Dr. Marv’s fist is caught by Morris’ hand. Morris then kicks Dr. Marv and throws a punch back at him, successfully knocking him onto the floor. Morris notices the group watching him.]

Morris: What is the meaning of this!?

Videm: Hehe, uh, well, you see… Vince can explain!

[Videm pushes Vince towards Morris.]

Vince: Well you see, Princess Giffany possessed Dr. Marv. The End.

Morris: What!? You mean the villain is right here, in Dr. Marv’s body!?

[Morris looks at Dr. Marv, who is grinning as he is getting back up.]

Princess Giffany: HAND ME THE HEART CRYSTAL NOW!

Videm: Wait, how does she know—

Morris: Don’t listen to her! She’s evil—I mean—she’s—AGH!

[Morris throws a forceful punch at Dr. Marv’s body, which flings away to the wall. Princess Giffany warps out of Dr. Marv’s body.]

Princess Giffany: FINALLY! I AM FREE FROM MY DIMENSION! AHHAAHAHAHAHA!

[Princess Giffany smiles at the group.]

Princess Giffany: You do NOT know what’s about to come your way, fools!

[Princess Giffany slowly transforms into her true form, her now white dress forming into something longer, more extravagant. Her tiara forms into a golden crown, and her body is now ghost-like.]

Morris: Q—Queen Phantom?!

Queen Phantom: YOU DO NOT KNOW HOW LONG I’VE SAVORED FOR THIS MOMENT!

[Queen Phantom floats everywhere in the room, trapping the way out with a glowing, white barrier.]

Minami: Oh shit!

Scarlett: Oh god, what do we do!?

Videm: I don’t know…

Jeffrey: I’m blue, dabahdeabeadah

Announcer: AND NOW WE’RE BACK TO WORLD DANGERS

Queen Phantom: AHAHAHAHAHA!

Jeffrey: You have a laughing problem, gurl.

[Queen Phantom ponders, then grins.]

Queen Phantom: WHAT TO DO FIRST!? OH! HOW ABOUT I REPAY YOU FOR THAT LITTLE DEAL!

[Queen Phantom glares at Morris.]

Morris: What—oh… no, I mean, you don’t have to—

Abby: What deal is she talking about?

Queen Phantom: YOU HAVEN’T TOLD THEM? BOY, YOU’RE SLACKING OFF!

Morris: Go away, now!

[Queen Phantom ignores his commands.]

Queen Phantom: HERE YOU GO!

[Queen Phantom gets out a tablet, then throws it to Morris, who frantically dives to catch it.]

Morris: Careful! It’s fragile.

Videm: What!? A tablet? That looks just like…

[Videm pulls out a tablet.]

Queen Phantom: WELL WELL WELL! WHAT DO WE HAVE HERE?! ANOTHER TABLET, YOU’RE GETTING MUCH CLOSER THAN YOU THINK!

Videm: What?

[Dr. Marv suddenly wakes up from his unconsciousness.]

Dr. Marv: Ugh… can anyone tell me what’s happening? All I remember is strange, sparkly pink beams shooting through my bones…

Queen Phantom: LOOK WHO AWOKE FROM HIS BEAUTY SLEEP, ROGER MARV BOLOTHEN!

Dr. Marv: H—How do you know my full name!?

Queen Phantom: I KNOW EVERY LITTLE THING ABOUT YOU, DOLLY!

Dr. Marv: How!?

Morris: Don’t trust her, Dr. Marv! She’s going to bite hard!

Queen Phantom: DON’T LISTEN TO HIM! NOW, LEND ME THAT heart crystal OF YOURS, AND I WILL LEAVE YOU ALONE!

Dr. Marv: I’ve never trusted you since I stepped foot into that dungeon, why should I begin to trust you now!?

Queen Phantom: OH, I DON’T KNOW, THE WORLD KIND OF SEEMS IN DANGER. YOU KNOW ALL ABOUT THAT, DON’T YOU?!

Dr. Marv: I—who are you, really!?

Queen Phantom: ME!? WELL, I AM THE QUEEN OF THE PHANTOMS, BUT I GUESS MORRIS CAN EXPLAIN TO ALL OF YOU ABOUT THAT!

Morris: N—No! This is all wrong, you’re supposed to have been dead by now!

Queen Phantom: DEAD? HAHAHAHAHAHAHAHA

[Queen Phantom twirls and rolls in the air.]

Queen Phantom: A PHANTOM! DEAD?! YOU’RE SUCH AN IDIOT, JUST LIKE—

Morris: Shut up!

Videm: Morris, what is she talking about? Have you been lying!?

Morris: Omar! Attack her!

Omar: What?!

Morris: You’re the one who was supposed to kill her! Kill her before it’s too late!

Queen Phantom: WHAT? THIS WEAK FOOL? PFFT AHAHAHAHA! PATHETIC, MONTROG MORRIS PATROLION, YOU REALLY THINK THIS…

[Queen Phantom picks up Omar with ease, while Omar struggles to let go.]

Queen Phantom: THIS LITTLE CREATURE CAN EVEN SCRATCH ME!? YOU’RE THE BEST JOKER! LIKE SON LIKE FATHER!

Morris: Ignore her, she’s a liar! How can you trust something trying to kill you!?

Jeffrey: She’s got like a major yelling problem though.

Dr. Marv: I agree with Morris, she may just be another entity in the void!

[Queen Phantom drops Omar with ease, glaring back at Dr. Marv.]

Queen Phantom: THAT’S A LOT COMING FROM SOMEONE WHO GOT FIRED TWICE!

Dr. Marv: Grr…

Queen Phantom: WHAT AM I EVEN DOING, TALKING TO WEAKLINGS!? I HAVE A DIMENSION TO HEAD TO! AHAHAHAHAA!

[Queen Phantom flies all over the place again, creating a storm, blinding everyone, then she disappears. Everyone is panting for breath.]

Videm: Morris, explain this!

Morris: I—I’m afraid I cannot do something like that.

Videm: You’re our butler! What do you mean!?

Dr. Marv: I’m sorry to interrupt, but where did she go!?

Morris: She may have gone upstairs, all of you should be able to kill her.

Videm: Why?—

Morris: Please, Videm, trust me! We are saving the world, I am not trying to destroy it!

Videm: I…

[Abby puts her hand on Videm’s shoulder.]

Abby: The bigger threat is Queen Phantom right now.

[Videm looks down, then finally stares into Morris’ eyes and nods.]

Videm: Let’s do this.

[Upstairs, Queen Phantom is wrecking everything, searching for something. She is floating on the stairs, then she runs around randomly in the mansion. The group comes out of the fireplace, looking for Queen Phantom.]

Minami: We should split up, it seems like the best strategy right now.

[Everyone agrees and splits up.]

~Videm and Vince~

Videm: Are you sure she’d be in my room, Vince?

Vince: Well, obviously! Your room stinks, and ghosts like to clean up!

Videm: You just made that up!

Vince: I know, I’m just kidding, Videm!

Videm: This is no time to kid around.

[Videm picks up a vacuum.]

Videm: Why would Dr. Marv have this lying around?

Vince: Ooh! We can be ghostbusters!

[Videm throws the vacuum at Vince.]

Videm: Here, then. You can handle it, Luigi.

[Vince doesn’t react fast enough, so the vacuum hits his head.]

Vince: OW! RUDE! :c

Videm: Hehe, sorry. Let’s keep looking.

~Zeke and Spicy~

[Zeke and Spicy are in one of the bathrooms.]

Zeke: Why are we here?

Spicy: I have to use the restroom.

[Spicy steps up to one of the toilets.]

Zeke: Seriously!?  There’s a huge creepy ghost thing out there, and you’re focused on peeing!?

Spicy: Well… I was holding it in for a while…

[Zeke facepalms and walks back and forth, waiting for Spicy.]

Spicy: Hey, Zeke?

Zeke: I don’t want to talk to you while you’re peeing.

Spicy: What do you think of orange chicken?

Zeke: I’ve never had it.

Spicy: You’ve never had orange chicken!?

Zeke: No, I haven’t.  Are you still peeing or what?

[Spicy zips up their pants and flushes the toilet.]

Spicy: Remind me and I’m going to fix orange chicken for you someday.

Zeke: Uh… okay.  Are we going to leave now?

[Spicy washes their hands.]

Spicy: Wait, one second.

[Spicy walks up to Zeke, and gives him a hug.]

Zeke: What are you doing…?

Spicy: Sometimes a hug speaks louder than words.

Zeke: You’re so lovey dovey…

Spicy: I love you, though~

[Zeke laughs, and the two kiss before leaving the bathroom.]

~Jeffrey and whoever he wants go with probably Madison :)~

~Dr. Marv and Isabelle~

Isabelle: I’m so glad you’re still alive…

Dr. Marv: Speaking of, what happened while I was unconscious?

Isabelle: Well… Princess Giff—err… Queen Phantom, kind of took over your body.

Dr. Marv: Possession? Wow… this is a bigger threat than I’d thought.

[The two walk around the hallways, looking for any clues.]

Isabelle: There’s a… 1.0251% chance of her roaming around the halls, give or take a few decimals.

Dr. Marv: This is why I love you.

[Dr. Marv and Isabelle smile.]

~Syrz and Omar~

Syrz: Where could she be?

Omar: Idk…

Syrz: We’ve never been here before…

[Syrz and Omar look around, seeing the strange room filled with torn-up dolls and cobwebs.]

Omar: This place is creepy.

Syrz: It’s dark… do you have any torches?

Omar: No.

[Syrz and Omar walk further into the room, when all of a sudden the door slams behind them. They turn around to see a strange, purple aura around the door.]

Syrz: What was that!?

[They see Queen Phantom rise out of the ground, creepily grinning at them.]

Queen Phantom: WHO WANTS TO PLAY A GAME CALLED THE PROTAGONIST WILL DIE IN AGONY!?

[They look around for an escape, but to no avail. Their bodies shake as they hold each other in fear.]

Syrz: D—Do something Omar!

Omar: I don’t know what to do!

[Queen Phantom slowly floats towards them, holding a huge ice sickle.]

Queen Phantom: TAG, YOU’RE IT!

[Queen Phantom slashes at the two, but before she could, it stops in mid-air, then flings back at her, piercing into her forehead.]

Queen Phantom: ACK! STUPID PIECE OF—

Syrz: Whoa!—what happened?

Omar: I—I did something, but I don’t know what I did!

Syrz: We have to call the others—

[Queen Phantom interrupts Syrz with an evil laugh. Queen Phantom shows her ghostly face, which has blood trickling down both her cheeks and dripping off her chin. The crimson blood stains her white dress.]

Queen Phantom: YOU CAN’T EVEN BEGIN TO COMPREHEND HOW FURIOUS I AM!

[Queen Phantom shakes the room with her powers, causing the two to fall down. As the room shakes more violently, the walls are torn down, leaving only the ground. The sky around them, however, is not the rest of the mansion; instead, the sky around them is pitch-white, with only gray clouds scattered about that are forming loud thunders. Queen Phantom grabs Syrz, then shoves Syrz into her stomach. Syrz floats within Queen Phantom’s body, as her futile attempts to move her body slowly stops.]

Syrz: Help me, Omar!

Queen Phantom: IT’S JUST YOU AND ME, YOU DIRTY… DIRTY… MURDERER!

[Queen Phantom glares at Omar, and Omar shakes as he tries to not look up at Queen Phantom.]

Queen Phantom: AAHAHAHAHA, TOO SCARED? YOU COWARD!

[Queen Phantom raises both her arms with an axe in her grips, she was about to hit Omar.]

Syrz: Omar! Look out!

[Omar turns around, and right before Queen Phantom drops the axe on Omar, blue flames start fuming out of his left eye, then he runs up to her and punches her in the stomach, knocking her back into the air. Syrz is also knocked back and unconscious in the process.]

[Queen Phantom growls in anger, glaring back at Omar. Her face is slowly deforming itself and her hands start cracking as the nails transfigure into wolf-like claws. Omar widens his eyes and slowly backs away.]

Queen Phantom: YOUR MIND IS AS WEAK AS YOUR BODY!

[Queen Phantom floats closer and closer to Omar, hovering over him. Omar looks up in shock, petrified.]

Queen Phantom: SAY YOUR FINAL WORDS YOU MURDERER PIECE OF SHIT!

Omar: I…

Queen Phantom: TIME’S UP!

[Queen Phantom quickly lets herself go, and falls hard onto Omar. Only silence fills the room. A faint, blue flame wisps into the air.]

[The light is fading in, as the blurriness begins to fade away. Omar gets up, seeing that he is back in the room without Queen Phantom or Syrz in sight. He hears key-like rustling emanating from his pocket, but ignores it.]

Omar: What…

[The door in the room suddenly opens, and the light finally begins to flood the room. On the other side of the door is Syrz, who is bearing no injuries.]

Syrz: There you are!

Omar: What do you mean?

Syrz: I was looking in the mansion for you, we haven’t found the villain, yet.

Omar: I—I thought I died.

Syrz: You must’ve been dreaming. Come on, let’s go.

[Omar follows Syrz into the main hall with the whole group.]

Dr. Marv: Any luck finding her?

Syrz: Sadly, no.

Videm: Where were you, Omar?

Omar: I saw her, I thought.

Minami: You did?! Where!?

Omar: Syrz and I fought her, but…

Syrz: We did? I don’t remember that.

Omar: You were there! You were trapped in her, I hit her a lot, and she was kinda hot? But I was also scared?

Videm: Come on, don’t lie.

Omar: I swear, I’m not joking!

Dr. Marv: Could Syrz have been unconscious the whole time?

Omar: I think she was.

Syrz: Actually… I do remember me and Omar going into a room… but then I lost Omar.

Isabelle: It is possible that Omar has been telling the truth.

Minami: So does that mean Omar just killed her?

Dr. Marv: I think so. Though, there’s a slight chance it could’ve been a dream.

[Doors suddenly slam as Morris walks into the main hall from the playroom. He looks at the group nonchalantly, with his arms crossed behind his back.]

Morris: She is gone. I do not sense her presence anymore.

Jeffrey: That’s a relief. Does that mean we’re safe and done?

[Morris looks at Jeffrey for a second, before nodding his head.]
Morris: Just be careful next time. Do
not trust anyone, no less the villains in the portals.

[Videm opens his mouth to say something, but retracts, only staring at Morris.]

Morris: You are all dismissed. Make sure to get some rest.

~Videm and Dr. Marv~

Videm: So, how are you and Isabelle?

Dr. Marv: We’ve been doing great, why do you ask?

Videm: I don’t know… it just seems that you’ve been focused on her a lot lately.

Dr. Marv: Well, yes. She was my biggest crush in my life. Now that I get to see her, I want to cherish every moment.

Videm: I remember when Abby and I did that…

Dr. Marv: What happened?

Videm: It’s not that we don’t like each other, it’s just that… we’ve kind of grown out of love, you know?

Dr. Marv: I’ve never been in a long relationship like you to know what you’re talking about.

Videm: That’s the point, I mean, I’m glad to have a long relationship, but it seems… odd.

Dr. Marv: How so?

Videm: I’m not sure, I’m just way too tired to explain right now.

Dr. Marv: Alright…

[The two go silent. Videm stares at the ceiling in the bed, while Dr. Marv types on the computer furiously.]

Outro

[The mansion’s final light turns off, as the moonlight begins to fill in for the lights. The waves slowly clash and clash, reaching up towards the volleyball left on the sand, and grabbing it into the ocean. The winds are building up, and the trees sway along with it. All of a sudden, a purple aura emits from the mansion roof, and it slowly begins to reveal Queen Phantom, grinning. She zooms into the sky, which causes the wind to blow even harder.]


Episode 10 - The Cold Winter

[The group sits around the fireplace in the dark playroom.  The group, all except Dr. Marv and Morris, are sitting around with copious blankets around them, except Syrz, who is dressed in the blue dress that Catalina allowed her to have for the party. Mists of breaths are cast around the room, as the windows are covered in fog, concealing everything behind them.]

Videm: Ugh… I don’t know what to do without power or the internet… I need to know when the next Geometry Dash update is coming out!

Abby: Videm, you’ve been checking your phone for that at least every 2 minutes. You’ll be fine.

[Videm grabs Abby and shakes her hysterically.]

Videm: I’M CLEARLY NOT!

Isabelle: Don’t worry, I believe Dr. Marv and Morris will be able to get the power back up in no time.

[Meanwhile, Zeke looks at Syrz.]

Zeke: Why are you wearing that dress?

Syrz: Why shouldn’t I?  It looks nice, does it not?

Zeke: I guess…

[The group sits in silence again, until the silence is broken by Spicy.]

Spicy: We could play another round of Truth or Dare!

Syrz: “Truth or Dare”?  What is that?

Omar: A game.

Syrz: What kind of game?

Vince: It’s a game where someone asks someone, “Truth or Dare?” and the person picks one or the other. If you pick truth, the person can ask you a personal question or just a random question, and if you pick dare, the person can make you do something like lick the bottom of your shoe.

Syrz: That sounds interesting.  I would like to try this game out.

Spicy: Awesome!  Who’s playing?

Videm: Meh, I’m kind of bored of Truth or Dare.
Vince: I will! *raises hand*

Catalina: I shall.

Alice: I shall play too.

Sara: Like, ew! I should play!

Zeke: I’ll play too.

Syrz: Of course, I will as well.

Omar: Me!  I wanna play!

Spicy: Is that all?

[No one says anything, so the group starts to play.]

Spicy: I’ll go first.  Truth or dare, Omar?

Omar: Dare.

Spicy: I dare you to imitate Shia LaBeouf’s “Just do it”, with the motions.

[Omar yells “Just do it”, doing the motions with his hands.  Catalina stifles a laugh.]

Vince: *snrrk*

Omar: Truth or dare, Zeke?

Zeke: Dare.

Omar: I dare you to kiss Spicy.

Zeke: Uh… okay.

[Zeke kisses Spicy.]

Zeke: Truth or dare, Vince?

Vince: Truth.

Zeke: Do you have a crush on anyone in this room?

Vince: No. At least not right now ^~^

Zeke: Okay.

Vince: Truth or dare… Catalina?

Catalina: Truth.

Vince: Okay, Catalina… do you have a crush on Videm? :3

Catalina: I… he’s in a relationship, so it wouldn’t matter if I had a crush on him…

[Videm and Catalina sit awkwardly.]

Vince: M’kay…

Catalina: Truth or dare, Sara?

Sara: Ew! Dare, obviously!

Catalina: I dare you to go make something in the kitchen and bring it back for us to eat.

Sara: Okay. *runs off to the kitchen*

Vince: We’ll be right back after these commercial breaks.

[The room crickets in silence.]

Spicy: Let’s just go on without her.

Alice: Spicy, truth or dare?

Spicy: Dare.

Alice: I dare you to give me a foot massage for the rest of the day. Please keep in mind my feet are very delicate.

Spicy: Okay…

[Spicy begins massaging Alice’s feet as Sara returns with food.]

Sara: Ew! Okay, so I made chocolate cupcakes with sprinkles and put pictures of Adam Levine attached to the cupcakes! Enjoy!—wait… why is Spicy giving Alice a foot-rub?

Spicy: Okay, you can go next Sara.

Sara: Okay, hmm… Syrz! Like, ew, truth or dare?!

Syrz: Truth, I suppose.

Sara: Ew! Truths are like so ew!

Vince: Just go already!

Sara: Fine… out of Spicy, Omar, and Zeke, who would you kill, marry, and give a handjob to?

Syrz: A handjob?  I’m unfamiliar with this term.  Would you care explaining?

Vince: Okay, so basically… um… Spicy, you explain…

Spicy: Uh… a handjob is when someone, like, massages a guy’s, uh… you know…

Syrz: Hm?  I don’t know.

Spicy: A guy’s penis, like in stroking motions…

Syrz: What is a penis?

Spicy: Darn it…

Zeke: Just guess.

Syrz: Well, I would marry Omar, kill Spicy, and give Zeke whatever a handjob is.

[Everyone stares at her, surprised.]

Vince: Um… let’s just forget this ever happened.

[The electricity comes back on, and the group cheers. Shortly after, Morris and Dr. Marv walk in.]

Morris: Let there be light!

Spicy: Now what?

Morris: It is time for the next portal.  Come to the cave.

[Everyone heads into the cave.  They stand in front of a portal made of an ice-like substance.]

Morris: Would whoever got the key in the last portal please use the key on this portal?

[Omar uses the key, and the portal opens.  Everyone steps inside.  They find themselves in a temple of sorts, frozen over and snow entering from windows in the temple.]

Videm: Darn it, I knew I wasn’t safe from Frozen.

Syrz: This place seems familiar…

Zeke: How so?

Syrz: This seems like Ordera.

Omar: What is Ordera?

Syrz: The realm I came from.  This is a little strange, however… when I left Ordera, it was like a desert.  This is almost like…

[Syrz realizes something.]

Syrz: Please follow me, everyone.  If guards show up, grab a torch and point it at one of the guards.

Spicy: Huh?  Why?

Syrz: If I’m right, then the guards are afraid of fire.

[The group walks into a hallway.  Bricks made of some sort of ice surrounded them, but they are unable to see through the ice.  Torches with fires illuminate the halls, but do not affect the ice bricks.  The floor, which also seems to be made of ice, does not keep the slippery property of normal ice.  Eventually, the group enters a room with three doors on the farthest wall.]

Spicy: Three doors?  Now what?

Syrz: This is likely a trap, don’t touch anything.

Catalina: But… what door should we pick?

Syrz: If everything is as I believe it to be…

[Syrz knocks on the third door, and the wall to the right of the three doors opens, revealing a staircase leading downwards.]

Omar: Woah…

[The group goes into the secret passage.  As they are heading down the stairs, they hear voices.]

Male Voice: Arin terlopax tekial.

[The group stops, and listens.]

Female Voice: Ninka!?  Ninka ato onto fafal!?

Male Voice: Zonton tekial!  Onto…

Vince: Does anyone know what they’re saying?

Syrz: I do… they’re talking about us.

Alice: What are they saying?

Syrz: The man is talking about us intruding, and the woman is scolding him… the woman must be one of the generals.

Sara: Ew! Do you know these people?

Syrz: I can’t say I do…

[The voices seem to move farther away, and Syrz gives a signal that it’s safe.  The group continues walking down the hallway, and they hear a male voice from behind them.  They turn around, and see a man with a heavily torn tunic.]

Man: Syrz?  Mak ern fafal?

Syrz: Huh?

Catalina: He said your name, didn’t he?

Syrz: Yes, he did… give me a moment…

[Syrz steps forward.]

Syrz: Xyo?  Noi ern kiln fafal?

Vince: Xyo? like EXO, or Xylophone?

[Syrz and the man named Xyo ignore him.]

Xyo: Ninka ern atla xavial?

Syrz: Ern… ern mutia fafal…

Xyo: Kur… ari fafal…

Syrz: Ari onital… ka zenri uritaln.

Alice: *whispers to Catalina* Do you know what they’re saying by their facial expressions?

Catalina: Uh… no…

Videm: Ooo, ooo, let me try! *ahem* DO. YOU. SPEAK. JAPANESE!?

Vince: *facepalm* No Videm. Just no. Does that sound like Japanese?

Syrz: I’m sorry, guys.  This person was my childhood friend, but…

Sara: But what?

Syrz: The thing is, he died during a war before I turned eighteen…

Dr. Marv: Quite a marvelous backstory…

Xyo: Syrz.

Syrz: Huh?

Xyo: Ern xavial mak mik ato vica fafal?

Syrz: Ari…

[Syrz’s face shows a mix of emotions.  Surprise, horror, among others.]

VVZ: Unable to translate, VVZ needs to connect to WiFi in order to translate. Possible update protocol failures.

Spicy: Syrz?  What did he… uh, say?

Syrz: He gave the possibility that we may be in the past, before I was crowned princess of Ordera, back when my mother was still in control…

Vince: Princess? Please don’t tell me you’re like that other princess…

Omar: Oh god, yeah, no.

Syrz: The worst part is… if my mother’s still in control, that means she’s still alive, and that means that we’re in grave danger…

Sara: Ew! I don’t like graves, they’re disgusting…

Videm: Looks like it's… *puts on glasses* a World Danger.

Vince: *takes out knife* What did you just say?

[Videm shrieks and throws the glasses at Vince.]

Vince: *snrrk* It’s just a butter knife. *grabs butter and spreads it on bread* Man, do I love butter and bread. *eats*

Xyo: Syrz, ari ier tekial.

Syrz: Hican…

[Xyo runs away, with a slight limp in his step.]

Syrz: He said he had to go…

Videm: Sounds like Vince every second.

Vince: I say Away from Keyboard, not I have to go.

Spicy: Okay, so now what?

Syrz: We must travel to the core of the temple, to face against my mother…

Syrz: Queen Winter.

Announcer: AND NOW WE’RE BACK TO WORLD DANGERS

[The group continues to navigate the seemingly endless labyrinth.]

Videm: Ugh… Spicy’s maze was better than this.

Catalina: Is it just me, or is it getting colder?

Syrz: That’s not a good sign…

Spicy: Why is it not a good sign?

Syrz: My mother, as her name suggests, can control the temperature, and make it colder.  If she knows we’re here, then she’s probably trying to torture us.

Vince: I’m bored. Dx

Spicy: Wanna play a game?

Vince: I do!

Dr. Marv: We should be fighting a villain, not playing games.

Spicy: Fine…

Vince: Rude…

[Three guards appear out of nowhere, their armors glazed with an ice substance.  Each has a shield and a sword, both seemingly made of ice.]

Syrz: Oh no… everyone, get a torch, and scare the guards off… there’s no point in fighting them.

[The group members grab torches, and push the guards away from them with the fires.]

Syrz: Hak surial…[b]

[The guards run away.]

Syrz: Fire does the trick.  If only it were that simple for my mother, but that’s besides the point.

[The group continues walking, eventually running into a new staircase.]

Syrz: This isn’t safe… I think it’d be best if I only went.

Zeke: Is your villain up there?

Syrz: She may not be directly up there, but it’s her throne room.  I’m sure it’s filled with traps.

Vince: Wait, if your mother is a winter person whatever, and you’re her daughter, how are you okay with fire?

Syrz: Every person of royalty who has the capability of becoming queen has a different element of the four elements, in the order of Ice, Earth, Fire, and Air.  My mother’s element is Ice, and mine is Earth.

Vince: Oh, that makes sense.

Syrz: The way it’s made is a daughter has an element that cannot surpass the mother’s element, so they can’t kill their mother to ascend.

Vince: So, this is like Avatar?

Syrz: What is that?

Vince: Er… nevermind.

Videm: What do blue guys have to do with this? :3

Jeffrey: I’m blue, dabahdeabeadah.

Alice: *claps*

Syrz: Alright, I should really be going up these stairs… please wish me luck.

Alice: Good luck. I believe in you. May the heart of the cards be with you.

[Abby walks over to Syrz, putting a hand on her shoulder.]

Abby: You’ll do fine, I promise.

Syrz: If you are attacked, just use your torches to scare them off.  If that doesn’t work, then try to find a weakness.  All Orderans have a weakness of some sort.

Madison: Are you sure we’re capable of this…?

Syrz: Of course.  I’ve heard many stories about your strength.  You all are capable of taking on any threats.

Vince: Oh my god, Madison finally talks.

Madison: Thanks, and shut up, Vince.

Vince: Rude…

[Syrz walks up the stairs, not looking behind her.]

Alice: I hope she makes it out okay. If not, I shall destroy her mother for her. *smiles and skips in a circle*

[Syrz walks into the empty throne room.]

Syrz: Maral!?

[A female voice rings around the throne room.]

Winter: You needn’t speak in Orderan here.

Syrz: For how long have you known English?

Winter: I know every language, and I know that you’ve gotten used to speaking in English over the past week in that world.

Syrz: You’ve been watching me?

Winter: Of course.

Syrz: But, why!?  Why are you doing this!?

Winter: I purposely sent you here, so I could finish something that I should’ve done on that day before your eighteenth birthday… today.

Syrz: Huh!?

[A younger version of Syrz walks into the throne room, dressed in ceremonial robes and makeup.]

Syrz: What is this!?

Winter: I’m going to kill the younger you, before you have a chance to banish me to that accursed realm…

Syrz: I won’t let you!

[Syrz tries to use magic, but nothing happens.]

Winter: You silly girl, such ignorance… while you are here, you cannot use magic, because you technically haven’t gained magic yet…

Syrz: You…

Winter: Don’t even.  It’s impolite of a lady to use such language.

Syrz: How did you know!?

Winter: You’ve been around humans for too long.  Have you forgotten?

Syrz: Huh?

[A crystal ball magically appears, showing Syrz before she was teleported to the mansion.  In it, Syrz is torturing a group of slaves.]

Winter: You were a tyrant.  You stopped at nothing to get your way, you were nothing but a villain…

Syrz: I don’t want to be a villain any longer…

[Winter’s voice laughs.]
Syrz: What’s so funny, mother?

Winter: I’m sending you to where I am.  I’d rather talk to you face to face.

[Syrz blinks, and suddenly she is on top of the temple, high in the sky.  Around her, snow is heavily falling.  Winter, dressed in a blue robe and wearing the same makeup Syrz wore before.]

Winter: What in Nethera are you wearing!?

Syrz: It’s called a dress.

Winter: I’m aware of what it’s called.  Why aren’t you wearing your robes?  You can’t call yourself royalty without them!

Syrz: I thought you said you were watching me…

Winter: I was lying, I can only listen to the conversations you have.

Syrz: So, why are you here?  If you were banished, you wouldn’t be able to even use magic.

Winter: Let’s just say I had some help from an old friend of yours…

[The crystal ball from before shows Xyo being hanged.]

Winter: I decided I no longer needed him…

Syrz: You monster…

Winter: I’m no monster, I’m what you should be.

Syrz: Like I said, I won’t go back to—

Winter: Alright, alright, you already said that, there’s no reason to repeat yourself.

Syrz: Then what do you want?

Winter: Your death, what else?

Syrz: But… why!?

Winter: Are you an idiot?  I told you.  It’s because of you I was banished to the forbidden realm.  That part doesn’t irk me as much as you going soft.  Now, you’re either going to become evil, or I’m going to kill you right here and continue my ruthless rule over this place.

[Winter summons water out of the air, and throws it at Syrz.  Syrz attempts to use magic to block the attack, but the water hits her and freezes on impact, leaving her stuck in the ice.]

Winter: Children are a lot easier to control when they can’t expend energy.

Syrz: I…

[Winter slaps Syrz with several pounds of force, causing Syrz to scream out in pain.]

Winter: When you die, Ordera will be fine without you.  This realm thrives off of pain and misery… when you take away those elements, the realm slowly falls apart.

Syrz: That’s… not… true…

[Blood trails down Syrz’s face.]

Winter: You know better than anyone that you can’t defeat me.  You said it yourself, to your friends down there.  Orderan Princesses can never surpass their mothers…

Syrz: I… you…

Winter: What’s the matter?  Cat got your tongue?

[Winter melts some of the ice to reveal Syrz’s feet, which have gold stilettos on them.  Winter takes off the stilettos, and throws them off the temple.]

Winter: Or are you having… cold feet?

Syrz: Those were… a gift…

Winter: Huh?  What did you say?  I didn’t hear you.

Syrz: I was given those… by a person very dear to me…

Winter: Aw, how cute…

[Winter rears her hand back, about to slap Syrz again.  Before the hand reaches Syrz, Syrz suddenly breaks out of the ice and grabs Winter’s hand.  The scene suddenly switches to the others.]

[Meanwhile, in the hallways below, Vince and Dr. Marv are scaring the guards off, while Alice, Catalina, Abby, Isabelle, and a few others sit in a circle.]

Alice: How about a game of go-fish? *takes out a deck of cards*

Abby: In the middle of an icy cavern that has a bunch of icy guards?

Scarlett: Why not!?

Alice: Okay, I shall shuffle the cards. *throws the box away and shuffles the deck*

Isabelle: So, how’s Kitten doing?

Abby: She’s still sick, she says. I know she’s hiding something, but she just refuses to reveal it.

Alice: Okay, I’ll hand out the cards. *hands out cards* Catalina, do you have a ten?

Catalina: I still don’t know how to play this game, but… I do have it.

[Alice takes her ten, but Catalina sits there, as if she were waiting for something.]

Vince: Can you guys help us?! *smacks a guard into the wall*

Alice: Hmm… very well.

[The ladies get up, throwing torches at the guards. However, even more guards flood in, surrounding the group.]

Alice: *grabs fan and laughs* Ahaha, what fun. *smacks guards with fan*

Scarlett: *grabs umbrella, and slashes at the guards, but more guards dashed in front of her* MY UMBRELLA GOES BOOM! *she activates her umbrella right when the guards reached her, causing the guards to fly back against the wall with so much force that it breaks behind them*

Sara: Ew! *smacks random guards*

Madison: *grabs a torch from nearby, and run towards the guards, scaring them back* Stay back! I don’t want to harm you. *one of the guards runs at her, she shrieks, and throws the torch at the guard in panic, burning said guard*

Vince: Time for… Vince’s useless knowledge! Did you know, burning is one of the most painful ways to die in the world?

[Everyone groans at Vince.]

Vince: Teehee.

[The scene switches back to Syrz and Winter.  Winter pulls her arm back, and Syrz continues to break out of the ice.]

Syrz: You may be stronger than me in every way… but I have something you don’t…

[Winter stares at her, confused.]

Syrz: I have a reason to fight.

[Syrz suddenly summons a large wall of earth from the ground, and lifts it into the air.]

Winter: How!?  How can you use magic!?

Syrz: I… finally believe…

Winter: What is this!?  Some sort of sappy cliched movie!?

[Syrz ignores her and holds the earth above Winter.  Winter teleports in front of Syrz, and uses her magic to tie the two together.  Syrz struggles to get away from her mother, but can’t.  Her free hand is still holding the large block of earth above the two.]

Winter: You might as well get rid of it.  I know you.  You’re not going to kill both of us.

Syrz: That was how I was…

[Syrz inches the block closer to them.]

Syrz: But now, I realize something…

[The block continues to fall slowly.]

Syrz: I am willing to die, if it means my… friends… will be safe.

Winter: Friends!?  You’re calling them friends!?  They don’t care about you!  You’re just another member of their team.  Just another name they have to remember, and it’s not exactly an easy name to remember!

Syrz: You… you shouldn’t say that while your death is just around the corner…

Winter: I’m not concerned.  Because you won’t kill yourself just to get your way.

[The block is directly above the two.  Syrz wiggles a single finger, her pinkie, and suddenly the group has been teleported to the roof, but are unable to approach the two due to an invisible wall Syrz created.]

Videm: Darn invisible walls! They always kill me in Super Mario 64!

Vince: *smacks Videm in the head* Shh…

Syrz: Everyone… I brought you here to say goodbye…

[Winter stares at her in wild confusion, for the first time truly fearing that she might die.]

Omar: No! I don’t want you to die!

[Syrz begins to cry.]

Syrz: Omar, I just want you to know… that you’re the one I’m fighting for… I love you.

[Syrz lets go of the block, crushing the two.  The invisible wall disappears, and the group is able to enter.  The block disintegrates, and both of their bodies can be seen, in a horrid state. Omar then runs to Syrz’ body as tears run down his face.]

Madison: Oh my god!

[Dr. Marv glares at Morris, then sighs.]

Omar: Give me one last moment with her…

[The camera switches to Omar hugging Syrz’s limp body.  Omar’s tears fall onto Syrz’s face, and Omar kisses her.  Suddenly, it stops snowing, and the sun can be seen rising.  Syrz’s lifeless face suddenly springs back to life, and Syrz stares into Omar’s eyes.]

Syrz: Your determination… brought me back to life…

Omar: I…

Abby: Aw…

[Omar suddenly blushes and lets go of Syrz, making her fall.]

Syrz: Oomph…

Omar: Sorry.

[Syrz smiles like it’s nothing.]

Syrz: It’s alright, I forgive you.

[Syrz gets up, looking down at the ruined dress.]

Syrz: Catalina, your dress is ruined…

Catalina: It’s understandable.

Syrz: Oh?

[Syrz sees a shining object in Winter’s pocket.  She takes out the object, and it’s a strange object shaped like a snowflake.]

Syrz: I’m guessing this is for the next portal.

[The group heads back to the portal after the destruction of Winter.]

[Syrz and Omar enter their room.  They awkwardly get ready for bed, when Syrz begins to speak.]

Syrz: I meant exactly what I said.  My reason for fighting… is you, Omar.

[Omar blushes, embarrassed, and looks away.]

Syrz: I’m not well-versed in your culture, but I know there exists such things as a “boyfriend” and a “girlfriend”, and it is the norm to be this before pronouncing a prince or princess.

[Omar looks at Syrz.]

Syrz: For this reason, I’d like to ask you…

Syrz: … will you be my boyfriend?

Omar: Yes.

Syrz: Really!?

[Syrz unexpectedly changes to a more childish version of herself, hugging Omar.  They both go to bed.]

[Videm and Dr. Marv are on their computers when all of a sudden a knock on the door is heard. Videm opens it, revealing a smiling Isabelle.]

Isabelle: Hi! Uh, where’s Dr. Marv?

Dr. Marv: I’m here, Isabelle.

[Dr. Marv gets up from his chair, then the two hug and kiss, holding it for a few seconds before Videm interrupts.]

Videm: Sheesh, you two are really goin’ at it!

[The couple laughs.]

Isabelle: So, Roger, do you want to go for a walk before the sun sets?

Dr. Marv: Su… sure! I have no plans.

Videm: But you said you’d help me with my project…

Dr. Marv: Don’t worry, Videm. We worry about that later.

Isabelle: I don’t want to get in your guys’ way—

Videm: No, no. You guys go right ahead, I’ll just… be here.

[Dr. Marv and Isabelle head outside, walking on the beach and leaving Videm by himself.]

[Abby is sitting beside Kitten, who is still tired. Videm enters the room and joins Abby, sighing.]

Videm: You’re still sick?

Kitten: Yeah… *cough*

Abby: Kitten, honey, why don’t you want to talk about what happened a few days ago?

[Kitten bites her lips, then sighs.]

Kitten: Because of her…

Videm: Who?

Kitten: I don’t know who, but she’s coming, I can feel it.

[Abby and Videm look concerned and perplexed.]

Kitten: When Dave and I went down into the secret room in the library… *cough*, we found a sort of demonic ritual room. At the end of the room, there was a painting showing Catalina with a big red X on it. And when we… *cough* touched a heart-shaped crystal, the whole mansion began to combust. When I reached the main halls of the mansion, she was there, and she summoned fire onto me. I don’t know the rest, though… *cough*

Videm: W… well then… I’m just glad you finally let it out. Get well soon.

[Videm and Abby kiss Kitten on the forehead, leaving Kitten alone.]

Outro

[The camera shows the ice castle in the distance, while the cold winds blow the snow like a mini blizzard.]


Episode 11 - Pawn of the Players

[The group are in the playroom, some playing checkers, others are playing Monopoly. A group of people are playing Chess, including Scarlett, who is winning against everyone.]

Scarlett: CHECKMATE, MATE!

[VVZ stands, and Syrz sits across from Scarlett.]

Syrz: I’m not sure I know how to play this game, but I’ll try my best.

[Scarlett and Syrz play for a few minutes, before Scarlett ultimately beats Syrz.]

Scarlett: Yeah!  Another one bites the dust!

Syrz: Why would one bite the dust?

Scarlett: It’s just an expression…

Syrz: Oh, I see.  I’ll be sure to remember this expression.

[Syrz stands, and Spicy sits down.  During their game, Spicy is beaten quickly.]

Scarlett: Hah!  I’m the ultimate Chess player!

[The door slams open.  Omar walks in.]

Omar: That’s not true!  I’m the better Chess player!

[Omar flexes ;).]

Scarlett: Huh!?  You think you’re better than me?

Omar: I don’t think I’m better than you, I am better than you!

[The group gasps, looking from a corner of the playroom.]

Vince: And here’s cocky Omar.

[The two ignore him, locked in their own world.]

Scarlett: Oh yeah!?

Omar: Yeah!

[The two stare each other down menacingly.]

Scarlett: If you think you’re so good, then let’s play a game.  Whoever wins gets the title of Ultimate Chess Player of the Mansion!

Omar: Okay, how does tomorrow at noon sound?

Scarlett: Sounds perfect.

[The two angrily leave the room, leaving everyone in silence.  Some go back to playing Monopoly, and some others decide to amuse themselves in other ways.]

VVZ: I should try and upgrade my referee skills, so I shall narrate this match!

Videm: I remember when I tried to be a referee. I don’t remember the match though, I think it was something along the lines of octopuses and underwater battles…

[Syrz and Zeke decide to go have lunch together, since Omar is busy preparing for the match.  They sit on the porch, eating chicken nuggets.]

Syrz: This is my first time having this… what was it called?

Zeke: They’re called chicken nuggets.

Syrz: Are they made from chicken?

Zeke: Most aren’t actually made of chicken, it’s just some processed stuff, but a lot of people just eat them anyway.

Syrz: Processed?  Like, fake chicken?

Zeke: Exactly.

Syrz: In Ordera, only the best was prepared for me, but I can’t say I knew how those of a lower class ate.

Zeke: Hey, I was wondering something…

Syrz: Yes?

Zeke: How do you know English?

Syrz: I’m not sure.  When I came here, I somehow knew it automatically.

Zeke: That’s weird…

[Syrz dips the chicken nugget into a miniature plastic cup filled with ketchup.]

Syrz: This whole condiment culture is strange…

Zeke: I don’t understand it either, but someone thought it was a good idea to dip food in condiments to make them taste better.

Syrz: It would seem that person had a little bit too much spare time on their hands.

Zeke: Isn’t today a beautiful day?

Syrz: Any day would look nice compared to how Ordera usually looks

Zeke: Oh yeah, what is the government like in Ordera?  Just, uh, curious.

Syrz: We have a… I believe it’s called a monarchy?

Zeke: Oh, yeah?

Syrz: The female is the leader, there is rarely a king.  Nor is there a need for a king, since the queen is given supreme power and magic.

Zeke: I see…

[Syrz stands.]

Syrz: If you don’t mind, Catalina asked to see me.

Zeke: It’s fine.  I’ll go see what Spicy is doing.

[Both head into the mansion.]

[Videm enters Kitten’s room, surprised by her actually standing up. She is brushing her hair.]

Videm: Kitten? You’re… you’re standing!

[Kitten looks back at Videm, smiling.]

Kitten: Duh, I learned how to stand when I was like 2 or 3.

[Videm chuckles.]

Videm: How did you manage to recover?

Kitten: I don’t really know. One day, I just woke up with a lot of energy, and so I decided to prepare for the day.

Videm: Well, I hope you stay this way. Don’t explore without permission, alright?

Kitten: Okay!

[Videm tousles Kitten’s hair, then walks out of the room. He glances at Kitten, who is looking in the mirror and putting on makeup, then he walks away.]

[Zeke enters the room, looking for Spicy.  There is a note on the bed, saying “Dear Zeke, this is an impromptu game of hide & seek.  If you find me, you’ll get an award. ;)  Your first hint is: where we met…”.]

Zeke: Huh?  “Where we met”?  I can’t get there from here… what do they mean?

[Zeke looks outside, then back at the note.]

Zeke: Wait… they lectured me about ellipses the other day…

Zeke: Maybe they cut off the rest…

Zeke: And if that’s true… they could be talking about…

Zeke: Where we met the newcomers!  In the forest!

[Zeke walks into the forest, and sees a note pinned to a tree.  The note says “Good job.  You remember what I told you about ellipses.  The next hint is, my greatest fear.”.]

Zeke: Their greatest fear?  That’d be… water.

[Zeke walks into the mansion.]

Zeke: The only place there’d be water where they could put a note without it getting wet…

[Zeke walks into the male bathroom.  Vince is taking a shower, and singing Hollaback Girl.  Zeke mentally facepalms, then looks around the showers for a note.  He calls out to Vince.]

Zeke: Vince!

Vince: What?! I was getting to the chorus…

Zeke: Have you seen a piece of paper in here?

Vince: Um… yeah, I did, but I ate it. Sorry.

Zeke: You ate it!?

Vince: Just kidding, it’s near the sink, but someone could’ve taken it, because I don’t really see who comes in and out…

Zeke: Hm…

[Zeke looks around the sink, and sees a piece of tape on the mirror, but no note.  Zeke exits the male bathroom.]

Vince: Rude, no goodbye or anything?

[Once he’s outside, he looks around.  He sees Minami, and confronts him.]

Zeke: Hey, uh, Minami.  Have you seen anyone enter the bathroom?

Minami: Yeah, I saw Sam.

Zeke: Sam?  Okay…

[Zeke knocks on Sam’s door and Sam opens the door.]
Sam: Hi.

Zeke: Hi, did you take anything from the bathroom?

Sam: Yeah, I saw this weird note that didn’t have a signature on it, so I brought it here.

Zeke: You just… took the note!?  Not even knowing whose it was?

Sam: Yeah, of course.  Was it your note?

Zeke: It was for me, yeah.

Sam: Okay, it’s right here…

[Sam looks for the note, but it’s nowhere to be found.]

Sam: It’s not here… Sara must have taken it!

Zeke: Okay, where would she be?

Sam: She’d be… in the basement.

Zeke: Why would she be in the basement?

Sam: I dunno… she’s weird, that’s why.

Zeke: But how do you know she’d be in the basement?

Sam: I don’t know… she just goes there sometimes.

[Zeke goes down into the basement, and sees Sara.]

Zeke: Sara…?

Sara: Ew! So, like, mom, you have to give me Adam Levine for my birthday!-

[Sara turns around to see Zeke.]

Sara: You saw nothing…

Zeke: I… I don’t really care.  I just, did you take the note from Sam’s room?

Sara: Ew! Like totally, I was gonna play Ew with it!

Zeke: Well, the note is mine.  Can I have it?

Sara: Oh well it’s currently in that trash over there.

Zeke: Uh… okay…

[Zeke goes to the trash can, and sees nothing.  He looks back up at Sara.]

Sara: Oh, oops, I was sitting on it the whole time… now let me go back to talking to my mom and talking to the people! *points to random camera that tips over and falls* It works…

Zeke: What do I have to do to get that note?

Sara: Ew! You have to join me in my MeTube video!

Zeke: Is that all?  Okay.

Sara: Ew!!! I’m so excited!!!

Zeke: Why are you excited?

Sara: Because I’ve had no special guests other than my uncle!

Zeke: Oh, uh… okay.

Sara: Also, you may be viewed by five million people. Okay now go fix that camera!

[Zeke walks over to the camera, and fixes it.]

Zeke: Is that good?

Sara: Ew! It’s perfect! It gets an amazing view of meh (me).

Zeke: Uh… okay.

Sara: Okay, I’ll start recording.

[Sara presses the record button on the camera.]

Sara: Ew! Hi MeTube and welcome to another vlog! Today we have a special guest, Zeke umm… Able!

Zeke: Hi.

Sara: Ew! So, Zeke, what do you think is the most ew?

Zeke: Carhops who trip over the side of the sidewalk when they bring you your food.

Sara: Um… is that even ew? Anyway MeTube, so guess what I’m getting for my birthday? Adam Levene (Levine)! At least I hope I do…

Zeke: I see…

Sara: Does it look like I’m talking to you Zeke?!

Zeke: Yes, it does.

Sara: Well, I said MeTube, so I was talking to the people watching MeTube!

Zeke: You sound like an idiot, can I have what I asked for?

Sara: Ew! Whatever, just take this stupid note!

[Sara hands Zeke a note.]

Zeke: Thank you…

Sara: Ew! Anyway MeTube, back on the subject of Adam Levine. I have him as my next guest-star!

[Sara walks to the closet, opens it, and a tied up Adam Levine tumbles out.]

Adam: Help me…

Sara: Be quiet or I slit your throat and wrists!

[Zeke looks at the note, which says “Good job!  You figured it out!  Your final hint in this game is… check my browsing history.”.]

Zeke: Their browsing history…?  Oh god…

[Zeke enters his and Spicy’s room, then opens Spicy’s computer.  A password is prompted, and he types MidJulOct18ily.]

Zeke: They have the weirdest passwords…

[The screen opens.  Zeke goes to their browsing history, then sees one page appear.  It’s labeled as Do You Trust Me?.  Zeke looks confused, and looks around the room.  He’s the only one in the room.  He clicks the link, and the Google search page opens.]

Zeke: Huh…?

[Zeke looks confused, and notices that his laptop was on the bed.  Zeke opens the laptop, and enters his password.  The screen turns on, and he goes into Google Chrome.  He checks the history, and he sees something that he doesn’t remember looking at.  He clicks on it, and a Google Document opens.  In a huge font size, the text shows “Good job!  You figured out that, when I said ‘my browsing history’, I didn’t mean the browsing history on my computer, I just meant my browsing history in general, even on your computer.  You’ve won.  Now, check the walk-in closet.”.]

Zeke: Seriously…?

[Zeke walks over to the closet, then opens it.  Spicy pops out, causing Zeke to scream.  There’s a knock on the door.  Zeke awkwardly walks over to the door, to find Catalina and Syrz on the other side.]

Catalina: Is everything okay in there?

[Spicy pokes their head out of the closet.]

Spicy: We’re fine, thank you!

Syrz: Uh…

Catalina: Well, we’ll be going.  See you later!

[Zeke closes the door, then grabs a pillow.  He throws the pillow at Spicy, who is laughing hysterically.]

Zeke: How long were you in there?

Spicy: I dunno.  I kind of just lost track of time.

Zeke: …

[Zeke falls onto the bed, head first.]

Spicy: Hey, what’s the big deal?

Zeke: I had to deal with Vince’s singing, being led on a goose chase all the way to Sam’s room, where I eventually ended up in the basement with that psycho Sara.  THIS WASN’T FUN FOR ME!

Spicy: …sorry.

[Spicy suddenly starts laughing again, then jumps onto the bed, hugging Zeke.]

[Syrz and Catalina part ways, and Syrz heads to her and Omar’s room, where Omar is practicing for the match.]

Syrz: Oh, hello, Omar.

Omar: Hello!

Syrz: Are you practicing?

Omar: Yeah.

Syrz: Everyone expects Scarlett to win, but I have faith that you can beat her brunette… er, cho.  I don’t know how to say it in English.  That’s one word that didn’t cross over with me.

Omar: Her ass?

Syrz: I guess.

[Omar continues practicing, and Syrz looks over her makeup.]

Syrz: I wonder if I’ll ever need this stuff again…

Omar: I don’t think so…

Syrz: Maybe not, but I’ll keep it… just in case…

Syrz: So, Catalina introduced me to these magical things called “Instant Noodles”.  You just put them in a machine called a “microwave” and they provide a quick lunch.

Omar: Yeah…

Syrz: Hey, it’s almost 6 o'clock, do you want to hang out before it gets dark?

Omar: Sure.

[The two walk down the hallway, going to the kitchen.  They run into Alice.]

Syrz: Hello!

Alice: Hello there.

Syrz: Where are you going?

Alice: Nowhere in particularly.

Syrz: Oh, well Omar and I were going to the kitchen to have a private little date.

Alice: Well that sounds wonderful. You two have fun.

Syrz: Okay!  I’ll see you later!

[Alice walks off.  The two continue walking, then see Jeffrey.]

Jeffrey: Hey gurlz!

Syrz: Hello!  Have you seen Catalina around?  She kind of disappeared after our walk.

Jeffrey: No, I haven’t seen her.

Syrz: Okay, thank you.

[Jeffrey leaves the two.  They continue walking, then stumble upon Spicy and Zeke both wearing towels and obviously wet, almost as if they had just gotten back from the shower.]

Syrz: Uh, hello…

Zeke: Hi.  Someone thought it was a good idea for us to take a shower at the same time, and then that same person forgot to bring our clothes to the bathroom.

Spicy: It’s not my fault, okay?  I blame you for not reminding me.

Zeke: For not reminding you!?  You were—

Syrz: Okay, you two, we have to get to the kitchen.

[Syrz and Omar hurriedly go past them, arriving in front of the kitchen door.  On the door is a sign that says “EW!”.]

Omar: Huh?  What even is this!?

Syrz: The doors are locked… we have to get to the bottom of this.

[Syrz, Omar, Jeffrey, Alice, Sara, Spicy and Zeke stand around, Spicy and Zeke still in the towels.]

Syrz: Who locked the door and put the note!?

Zeke: It was obviously Sara, it says “Ew”.

Sara: Ew! I didn’t do it, I just came here then continued to record my MeTube show.

Alice: It obviously wasn’t me, I was just about to head back to my room.

Jeffrey: I was, like, going to the sauna.

Syrz: Then why are you still dry!?

Jeffrey: You grabbed me to do this before I could even change…

Spicy: Well, it wasn’t Zeke or me.  We have an alibi.  We were taking a shower.

Syrz: Then who was it!?

[Morris enters the room.]

Morris: I can explain this.

Morris: There are two culprits…

[Morris walks over to the locked door, then takes off the note.  He flips it over, revealing the signature of Sara.]

Sara: What?!

Morris: However, she had nothing to do with the locked door, she only put the note in annoyance of not being able to enter.

Syrz: Then… who locked the door?

Omar: It was someone who eluded all of us.  Someone who knew how to lock a door… someone, like a thief…

Omar: That’s why… the culprit was…

[The camera switches to Catalina, who had been dragged to the scene.]

Catalina: What do you need me for?

Syrz: Why did you lock the door?

Catalina: Oh, Dale asked me to.

Syrz: …

Catalina: Why?  What did you need in there?

Syrz: No… it’s fine…

[Syrz goes back to Omar’s and her room, confused and disappointed.  Spicy and Zeke sadly look at each other, and Jeffrey and Alice investigate the door more.]

Zeke: I have a confession to make.  I made that note.

[Everyone gasps.]

Spicy: And… I made Dale ask her to lock the door.

[Everyone gasps.]

Jeffrey: And I had no part in this.

[Everyone starts to gasp, then realizes it isn’t that important.]

Zeke: Now I feel bad, though… let’s make it up to her.

[The group sets up a clothed table in the middle of the hallway.  They prepare Instant Noodles, and light candles.  Spicy and Zeke, now clothed, bring a blindfolded Syrz to the table.  When the blindfold is taken off, she sees Omar wearing a tuxedo.  Syrz, smiling, sits down at the table.]

Syrz: You did this for me?

Omar: Yeah.  Sorry for it being Instant Noodles, but that seemed easy to make.

Syrz: It’s fine… no, it’s perfect…

[Omar stands, and holds out his hand.]

Omar: Shall we dance?

[Jeffrey plays ballroom music from his phone.  The two dance calmly yet passionately.  The onlooking group look on, in love with the dancing couple.]

Syrz: This is the second time I’ve danced with another person… and I’m the happiest person in the world to say that the dance I shared with you was the first.

[Syrz lays her head on Omar’s shoulder, and the screen changes to the next scene.]

[Abby walks into the playroom, where she finds Videm playing Geometry Dash; Dr. Marv and VVZ playing poker; and Scarlett playing Chess against nobody.]

Abby: Videm?!

[Videm rages at the game, throwing his phone across the room.]

Videm: Oh, oops…

[Videm looks at Abby, who stares awkwardly at him.]

Videm: Ah, yes! I’ve been meaning to tell you that Kitten is well and alive!

Abby: Really? Where is she?

Videm: I’m not sure, she should be here any-

[Kitten bursts in, filled with excitement. She runs around the room, shouting incomprehensible words.]

Kitten: OMG! OMG! OMG!

Videm: Kitten, honey, what is it!?

Kitten: My favorite video game, “Ultimate Chess: The Game 2”, just came out!

Abby: What’s… that?

Videm: Sounds boring, like Chess!

Kitten: Hey, Chess is not boring! It has a lot of skill and thinking involved. Something you don’t have.

Videm: Hey! I have lots of skills which involve jumping and sprinting, but that’s about it.

Abby: Last time I saw you jump was off of a 2 ft high wall, and you somehow managed to injure yourself doing so.

[Kitten looks at her tablet, beginning to play the game.]

~Dr. Marv and VVZ~

Dr. Marv: And since I’ve got two aces, I win against your two 7’s.

VVZ: Ah, this is starting to make sense.

[Dr. Marv takes his cards, reshuffling the deck.]

VVZ: I have to ask, Dr. Marv, how old are you?

Dr. Marv: I’m 40 something years old, why do you ask?

VVZ: Wow, you look quite young for a human that has been alive for 40 years!

Dr. Marv: I get that a lot, must be because I was working down in the labs.

VVZ: Speaking of, I’ve heard many things about Aperture Laboratories. I wanted to ask you, can you teach me all about Aperture and Black Mesa?

Dr. Marv: Why, I’d do anything to spread the works of me and Aperture Science. There’s quite a lot of things to teach you. I haven’t heard of your name, what was it?

VVZ: I identify as VVZ, but some people like to nickname me as Vinny.

Dr. Marv: Ah, well, Vinny, how about we start next week, huh?

Vinny: Okay, but what about Isabelle?

Dr. Marv: Oh, her? No need to worry about me and her, we’re just starting to become a couple.

[Over at the chess table, Scarlett is all alone, playing with the chess pieces.]

Scarlett: *sigh* This is boring.

[Scarlett looks at the umbrella next to her.]

Scarlett: Umbrellee, do you know how to play Chess?

[The umbrella does not respond back.]

Scarlett: Oh, right, I forgot I had to use my imagination to talk to things.

[Kitten plops on the couch across from Scarlett’s table. When Kitten loses in her game, she looks up at Scarlett, who is still sighing and all alone. Kitten puts her tablet away, then walks up to Scarlett.]

Kitten: You look like a miserable sack of shit.

Scarlett: That’s because nobody wants to play Chess with me.

Kitten: Well, I know a gal who can play Chess!

Scarlett: Really, who!?

[Kitten holds out two fingers then points at herself.]

Kitten: This one!

[Kitten sits in the chair across from her, looking at the chess pieces. They begin their match.]

Scarlett: So how are you and Videm related?

Kitten: What do you mean?

Scarlett: I heard you guys were somewhat father and daughter, but I’ve also heard you weren’t.

Kitten: It’s… complicated, to say the least. Let’s just say in this dimension, he is my father, but in another dimension, he’s my arch-nemesis. What about your father?

Scarlett: Oh, god. Don’t even mention him. Let alone my mother.

Kitten: Bad relationship?

Scarlett: My mother just doesn’t care about me, and I hate her for that, and she hates me for hating her. My father, well, luckily he died.

Kitten: Luckily?

Scarlett: He tried to fucking drown me when I was a child…

Kitten: I—I’m so sorry…

Scarlett: No, I’m sorry. I just got a little out of hand. Sometimes I hate myself for that.

Kitten: Why do you hate yourself for that type of thing?

Scarlett: That’s just how I think. I’m lonely, I’m depressed, and I’m insane. Have you seen me talk to my umbrella?

Kitten: Hey, you’re not the only one. I felt the exact same way as you did with your parents; my father tried to kill me, and my mother’s been hiding secrets from me the whole time.

Scarlett: Yeah… wow, you are really good at chess!

Kitten: Thank you, and so are you.

Scarlett: But your kingdom’s being invaded, check, mate!

[They both laugh, then the scene fades away.]

[In her room, Kitten yawns and sits on her bed. She stares at the clock.]

Kitten: *thinking* Ugh… just a quick nap. I’m so tired.

[She lies down in the bed and pulls the blanket over her.]

[The day after, most people in the gang walk over to the playroom, getting snacks, and preparing for the ultimate chess showdown. The camera switches over to Kitten, who is sleeping.]

Vinny: Get ready, ladies and gentlemen, to the ULTIMATE FISHTROUGHT CHESS MATCH!

Vince: Shhh, the Voice is on… #TEAMGWEN!

Videm: Wait, what’s Fishtrought?

Vinny: Two opponents! One young lady with an umbrella! SSSScarlettttt!!!

[The crowd cheers from the TV screen, then loud cheers roar the playroom.]

Vince: Yaaay, go Gwen!

Minami: Eh, why not. I go for Scarlett!

Vinny: And facing Scarlett is the chess player of the decade, the mastermind of all things, give it up for OOOOmmaaaarrrr!!!

[Syrz is the only one cheering.]

Syrz: Go Omar!

Videm: Wave your flag, Morris!

[Morris, raises his flag with one hand, while his other is holding a platter on top of which snacks are stacked. He waves it slowly.]

Videm: Go Omar and Scarlett!… what, I can’t go for two people at once?

Abby: Go Ed Sheeran!—oh, I mean, go Scarlett! You can do it!

Vinny: Uh… anyway! The chess match shall begin once the opponents step up to the table of fatality, and say when they’re ready!

Vince: What is this, a boxing match? The intro is so tacky and the cheering is only made by like three people. Anyways, go Gwen! *cheers*

Videm: You’re so tacky!

[Scarlett and Omar walk up the little stairs on the opposite side of each other. They sit in their respective chairs, glaring at each other furiously.]

Scarlett: You’re about to go down, little boy!

Omar: Says the dumb girl with her stupid umbrella!

Scarlett: What did you just say, mate!?

Omar: Yeah, that’s right, I SAID YOUR UMBRELLA IS STUPID!

Scarlett: YOU WANNA GO, MATE!? COME AT ME!!!

[Scarlett lunges at Omar, but Vinny swiftly intervenes between the two, who are clawing to get their way to each other.]

Scarlett: Grr… I will beat you up, Omar!

[Omar and Scarlett quietly sit down, still glaring at each other.]

Vinny: The game shall begin in 3

[Omar’s mouth frowns in a more intense way.]

Vinny: 2…

[Scarlett clenches her fists.]

Vinny: 1… BEGIN!

[Suddenly, the board vibrates, as the chess pieces move around, which had begun floating upwards with a mystical aura around it. Everyone gasps, and suddenly a blast of smoke surrounds the playroom. As it clears, it reveals a figure that is dressed up as a giant chess piece, specifically the King.]

King: WHO DARES START A CHESS CHALLENGE WITHOUT ME!?

Scarlett: W—What!?

[The King looks at Scarlett, closely inspecting her.]

King: You there, what shall be your name!?

Scarlett: S—Scarlett…

King: Ahaha! I’ve met a woman named Scarlett, she was quite a woman! Ah! And you, little chubby boy, who may you be?

Omar: Omar!

King: Wow, quite a confident one!

Vinny: What are you doing, interfering with the match?

King: I am the King of Chess! The spirit that has haunted every ultimate chess game, the one who determined the ones who have won!

[The King floats up in the air, with his hands behind his back.]

King: Now, you shall ponder against these rules and settings. Ponder no more, there is none! Thou thinketh of their rules, ergo begineth with the regular chess board. The big twist? Well, it sure is! Because thy board is quite titanic!

[The King snaps his fingers, and in an instant, the whole playroom is transformed into a bigger version of the chess board. On the thrones that sit opposite of the chess board, sit Scarlett and Omar. The crowd is then distributed into each side.]

King: BEGIN!

[The King brings up a floating throne, sitting on it.]

Scarlett: What are we supposed to do!?

Videm: I don’t know, but I sure didn’t agree to be on your side!

Omar: Go! ATTACK!

[Omar’s side charges towards Scarlett, who is shocked by this. Many of the pieces Scarlett has are knocked off.]

Vince: Whoa, this is a strange game of chess.

[Vince holds his cup, taking a sip of his cup of Folger’s coffee and watching the TV.]

Minami: Tell us what to do, Scarlett!

Scarlett: I—I don’t know!

Dr. Marv: He said no rules, so just think of something—

[Suddenly, Dr. Marv is knocked out by Sara.]

Sara: Ew!

Videm: They’re coming in closer! We have to do something!

Omar: You’re dead now! HAHAHA!

[Scarlett tries to think at that moment, frantically looking left and right.]

Scarlett: Uh… ATTACK!

[Scarlett’s side begins to fight back. However, they are still being captured more compared to Omar’s side.]

Minami: This isn’t going well for us…

Videm: Don’t worry, don’t panic. We’re gonna live, right!?

[Suddenly, Syrz comes dashing towards Videm, who screams, but successfully jumps over her. However, Syrz is quick, kicking Videm in the back.]

Videm: AVENGE MEEEeeee…

[Videm’s hand reaches out to Minami, as Videm’s body disintegrates, teleporting into a cage on Omar’s side. Minami drops his jaw, then looks at Syrz, who is grinning. Minami runs away as fast as he can.]

Abby: Someone protect me, I’m the Queen!

[Over on Omar’s side, Zeke is looking at the king outfit he is dressed in.]

Zeke: Why am I the king?

Catalina: Why am I the king?!

Sam: Dangit, I’m just a pawn!

Minami: Guys, look out!

[Sara is about to run into Abby and Sam, but luckily, Spicy comes in quick, slapping Sara out of the board.]

Sam: Whoa! Watch where you’re going, you almost hit my train!

Spicy: We’re being attacked by Omar’s pieces, and all you think about is trains!?

Isabelle: Where’s Dr. Marv?

Sam: Hey wait a minute, you’re on—

[Isabelle shoots a grappling hook towards Sam, who, fortunately, is sacrificed by Minami.]

Minami: GO ON AND WIN THIS! FOR SCARLETT!

[Minami disintegrates.]

Abby: Oh no, what do we do!?

Sam: I know, we should have trains come wreck the board!

Abby: Where are you going to get a train!?

Sam: I don’t know, I just like plans involving trains.

Omar: Give up, Scarlett! You’re so weak!

[In the mansion, Vinny watches the match on one of the TV’s.]

Vinny: I’ve got to find someone to help me stop this match…

Vince: Yay! Team Gwen! WOOOOOOT! Steal that worthless guy and not save it for people more deserving of a steal!

[Vinny glances at Vince, who is watching something else. Vinny rolls his eyes, heading back into the mansion’s main hall, where he sees Kitten sliding down the stair handrail.]

Kitten: VVZ? What are you doing here? I thought you were narrating the match?

Vinny: Kitten, there has been a series of unfortunate events!

Kitten: Speaking of, I just woke up, and realized I was late for the match. Is Scarlett winning?

Vinny: Well… not exactly—

Kitten: Then what are we doing here? Let’s cheer her on!

[Kitten and Vinny run over to the playroom. Kitten stops, watching the TV.]

Kitten: Where’s the match, and what is that? Is that… Abby and Catalina?

Vinny: That’s what I was trying to inform you, everyone was transferred into a giant, ultimate chess match, hosted by this King!

[The TV then shows the King, who is laughing on his throne as he spectates the match.]

Kitten: Wait a second, that looks like…

[Kitten stares at her tablet, which shows the same King inside “Ultimate Chess: The Game 2”.]

Kitten: That’s the King from my game!

Announcer: AND NOW WE’RE BACK TO WORLD DANGERS

~On Omar’s side~

Jeffrey: I guess we’re winning.

Isabelle: At this point, we may as well just sit back and watch them try to attack us.

~On Scarlett’s side~

Scarlett: What do I do, what do I do!?

Abby: Think of something, and quick! There’s only so much of us left.

Sam: Where’s a train when you need one!?

Scarlett: Shut up! I’m trying to think…

[Suddenly, Kitten and Vinny fall from the sky and onto the middle of the board.]

Kitten: Ow… ugh…

Vinny: Hurry and get up! We have no time to waste—

King: Well, well. Look who decided to show up to the game!

Kitten: Wow, it’s like we’re actually in the real game!

[Kitten and Vinny get up, seeing all around the board.]

Kitten: Scarlett?

Scarlett: Kitten!?

[Kitten sees Scarlett on her throne. Kitten and Vinny run over to her.]

Kitten: I’m sorry I’m late, I just had a few problems.

Scarlett: That’s okay, except I’m dying in this chess match!

[Kitten looks around, seeing that Scarlett has only a king, two pawns, a rook, and a bishop, while Omar has his king, and one pawn, bishop, knight, and rook.]

Kitten: You can still win this! Here, I have a plan.

[Kitten and Scarlett huddle, while Vinny looks around, trying to think of a way for them to get out.]

Scarlett: That… sounds stupid.

Kitten: You have no choice. It’s the only way, Scarlett.

[She hesitates, then nods. She yells at her chess pieces the plan.]

Sam: What!? I don’t even play Chess, and that sounds stupid to me!

Scarlett: Shut up! We have to win this, and if we don’t, well, I’ll probably murder all of you.

Abby: Wait wh—

Scarlett: NOW GO!

[They are all forced to go according to the plan. They all run toward the middle. Omar’s chess pieces look at them strangely.]

Jeffrey: What are they doing?

Isabelle: I think they surrender. Might as well finish the job.

[Omar’s chess pieces walk over to them.]

Isabelle: You’ve given up, haven’t you?

Sam: No, you gave up!

Isabelle: What do you mean?

Sam: It was a joke!

Abby: Let’s do this!

[Scarlett’s side begins stacking vertically, forming into a big pawn. Jeffrey looks up at them in awe.]

Jeffrey: Holy crap!

Omar: THAT’S CHEATING!

[The big pawn moves forward towards them, slowly but surely.]

Scarlett: Yes, yes! It’s working!

[Omar’s pieces do not know what to do. Omar is too shocked by the giant pawn.]

Omar: What the fuck is that thing!?

Kitten: Only the greatest power up in Ultimate Chess… the Ultimate Pawn!
Isabelle: RUN!

[Omar’s side of the game runs off in separate directions, while the Ultimate Pawn just runs straight for the others.]

Jeffrey: How do we defeat that thing?!

Omar: I—I don’t know! Do something!

Madison: Take this!

[Madison abruptly runs towards the Ultimate Pawn, kicking it to no avail. The Ultimate Pawn looks down at Madison, whose eyes are angry with bitter cockiness. Then, the pawn grabs Madison, throwing her right into Scarlett’s cage.]

Omar: Holy shit!

Jeffrey: There’s no way to stop it! We’re doomed!—ACK! NOOOO—

[The Ultimate Pawn has already kicked Jeffrey off, and only three pieces remain: Zeke, the king; Isabelle, the knight; and Syrz, the rook, remain.]

Omar: You two, do something, or else!-

Isabelle: Or else what!? We’re on your side. You should be thankful you still have players alive!

Omar: I’ll just deal with it myself, then!

[Omar gets up from his throne, running towards the Ultimate Pawn.]

King: Whoa—ho! Things just got a little more interesting!

Kitten: This is violating the rules!-

King: There are no rules, hah!

[Omar roars a battle cry, leaping up onto the Ultimate Pawn, who struggles to get Omar off.]

Omar: That’s right you stupid monster! Take that!

[The Ultimate Pawn roars as it is punched by Omar. It finally drops down, and unfused all of Scarlett’s side.]

Isabelle: We—we did it—

Omar: I did it!

[Isabelle and Syrz cheer, while Scarlett’s side dissipates from the board.]

Scarlett: *sigh*…

Kitten: You’re not angry?…

Scarlett: No, I’m just… disappointed…

[Scarlett climbs down from her throne, looking at Kitten for a moment, then walking off with her head down. Kitten looks at her, then the King, who is clapping with joy.]

King: Well, looks like we have a winner!

Kitten: Not just yet! Omar needs to checkmate her king!

[She points to Catalina.]

Omar: Yeah, right! No way Umbrella Girl can do that!

[Kitten steps up onto the board.]

Kitten: I shall join the match!

King: What!? You can’t do that!

Kitten: You said there were no rules, correct? Then, I can join Scarlett’s side!

King: I—alright, fine!

[The King waves his hands, as Kitten spawns over on Scarlett’s side of the board, dressed in pawn clothing.]

King: But what are you, a mere pawn, going to do against a bishop and a pawn?

Kitten: You’ll see… stay back, Catalina!

[Catalina steps back, as she watches Kitten run towards the two players with a fierce expression, who are laughing their heads off.]

Kitten: For SCARLETT!
[Kitten kicks Syrz off, and Isabelle gasps, but then they get ready to fight.]

Kitten: It’s just you and me, old lady!

Isabelle: I’m not old, I’m practically 35, for your information!

Kitten: Who cares, prepare to lose!

[Kitten and Isabelle run towards each other, yelling and kicking each other.]

Isabelle: Gah!

[Isabelle is shoved to the floor by Kitten, who is grinning with anticipation.]

Isabelle: You won’t defeat us!

Kitten: Oh, but I already HAVE!

[And with that, Kitten runs over to Omar’s side, while Isabelle tries to catch up. She successfully makes it, turning into a queen, and everyone is shocked silent.]

Omar: ZEKE! HEAD FOR CATALINA!

[Zeke obeys, running towards Catalina. However, Kitten is faster, catching up just in time to defend Catalina. He backs away, as she approaches him into a corner.]

Omar: ZEKE, DO SOMETHING!

[When Kitten steps on the tile that prevents Zeke from proceeding any further, horns suddenly blare and confetti starts falling out of the sky.]

King: W—Well, then! We have a winner! Scarlett has won the Ultimate Chess game!

Omar: NOOOOOOO!

[Omar kicks his throne, which suddenly disappears, along with the board, and everyone is transported back to reality. The gang who were stuck in cages are standing, looking at the TV with awe.]

Videm: That… just happened!

Minami: Holy crap that was quite the twist!

[The people on Scarlett’s side cheered and clapped, but Kitten was frowning.]

Dr. Marv: What’s with the frown? You won.

Kitten: Something’s missing… where’s Scarlett?

[Out on top of the roof, Scarlett is sitting down, looking at the sunset.]

Scarlett: How did the chess game go on for this long…

[Scarlett looks down at the shiny, reflective ocean, which bears a lot of waves that drift onto the beach, then back. All of a sudden, the trapdoor rustles and opens, revealing Kitten. Scarlett looks behind, then back at the ocean.]

Kitten: What are you doing up here?

Scarlett: Well, I was contemplating whether life is trying to stab me in the face or not.

Kitten: You won.

Scarlett: No, I didn’t…

Kitten: No, I’m not joking. You actually won!

Scarlett: Really? How?

[Kitten sits down beside Scarlett.]

Kitten: Well, once everyone else died, I went up to fight Isabelle and Syrz. They got wrecked!

Scarlett: Wow! I can’t believe you would do something like that!

Kitten: Yeah, well, I didn’t want you to lose.

Scarlett: Thanks for saving my game.

Kitten: No problem.

[They look up at the sunset, but something is off.]

Scarlett: Wait a second… do you see that?!

[Scarlett points towards a little line up in the sky: it is dark and crimson-ish.]

Kitten: Whoa, what is that!?

[Kitten shields her eye while trying to get a clearer look at the line.]

Kitten: It looks like a rift! But why would there be a rift?

Scarlett: I don’t know…  Maybe it’s just a helicopter.

Kitten: Hm, maybe you’re right. We should get inside before it gets cold.

[Kitten and Scarlett go inside, as the whole mansion sleeps through the night.]

Outro

Morris: It doesn’t make any sense! I did what I was supposed to do!

[Morris looks at the portrait of the same man he looked at last time.]

Morris: What did you do! How’d you do it!?

[The portrait does not respond.]

Morris: Grr… I’m going insane just like you did!

[Morris walks back to his chair, sitting down. He looks back at the portrait once again.]

Morris: I guess that’s just what’s called being related.


Episode 12 - Overburdening, Overthinking, Overwhelming

[The group enters the portal room as Morris leads them to the next adventure.]

Morris: Who has the rock for this portal?

Syrz: I have it.

[Syrz walks forward and puts the snowflake-shaped rock into the snowflake-shaped space. Jeffrey takes a step forward, looking at all the group members then looks at Madison.]

Jeffrey: Well, shall we go?

Madison: Yes we shall!

[Jeffrey and Madison, giggling, lead the group into the portal.]

[They enter onto a square platform covered with grass, but the grass appears to have a low resolution. A fog cover and what seemed like a void surround this platform.]

Vince: Uhhh…

Spicy: The grass seems… familiar.

[Everyone looks around for some signs of life or anything besides grass.]

Madison: What is that up there?

[Everyone looks up in the sky to see a black box. It slowly fades to different shades of gray, until it shows a silhouette of a person.]

Dr. Marv: It looks like we’re in some sort of cyber-generated space.

Jeffrey: Hmm.

[Suddenly, mouse clicking is heard as a wall surrounds the group and a roof pops on.]

Zeke: Whoa.

Vince: *snrrk*— EEEEEK!

[Jeffrey eyes the walls as a wallpaper shows up on the walls out of thin air.]

Jeffrey: Wait, this is that video game, The Sims!

Spicy: That’s why the grass looks familiar.

Madison: Is that guy the villain then?

[A floor appears beneath their feet as a door and windows appear with it. They walk outside and find the room expanded into a decent sized house and a whole front lawn had been constructed.]

Alice: Where did that guy go?

[The group looks up to see that the silhouette disappeared. The edges of the box are glowing green.]

Jeffrey: That green…

Madison: Where did he go?

Vinny: Does anyone know where we are?

???: I think I do.

[The group turns around to see another guy, with a green plumbob above his head.]

Syrz: What is that?

Jeffrey: A plumbob.

???: My name is Pablo Baisel. This my house you ended up in.

Minami: Heyo m8!

Pablo: You are more than welcome to stay in my house until you get one of your own. Thinking about that, I should change a setting

[A clicking sound is heard and suddenly, the fog surrounding the plot of grass fades away, revealing a whole neighborhood.]

Madison: Whoa.

Sam: This guy is some Level 99 Wizard crap!

Jeffrey: Well, thanks for the offer. I guess we can stay for a little while.

Pablo: Cool!

[The group walks in to see new paintings on the walls of the Plumbob. A lot of other green accents have been added to the furniture and rooms.]

Pablo: I hope you get comfortable. I’ll go make some food.

[Pablo goes into the kitchen, while everybody else congregates in groups.]

~Jeffrey and Madison~

Madison: Why did you accept his offer to stay here?

Jeffrey: Well, I was being nice, but I am very suspicious of this place.

Madison: If you say so.

Jeffrey: We should just explore this house and see if there’s anything weird.

Madison: Alright.

~Videm and Dr. Marv~

Dr. Marv: This place is… marvelous.

Videm: Yeah, I like the green color.

Dr. Marv: I’m going to investigate the rest of the house.

Videm: Alright.

~Vince, Sam, Alice, and Sara~

Sara: Ew! This room needs more class.

Alice: I think it looks kind of nice.

Sam: It needs more trains.

Vince: Needs more blue here and there.

Sara: Ew! Your room decorating skills need improvement.

~Spicy and Zeke~

Zeke: So you played The Sims?

Spicy: Yeah, for a lot of my childhood.

Zeke: That’s cool.

Spicy: What do you think of this house and world?

Zeke: It’s hideous.

       

[Pablo walks into the living room.]

Pablo: I made cookies!

[The group goes over to see the cookies. They are regular round chocolate chip cookies, but have a glowing green diamond center.]

Isabelle: Are those safe?

Pablo: Of course!

Jeffrey: Ok…

[Everyone takes a cookie and they sit in the living room. All of a sudden, the cookies start glowing brighter and the living room lights up as Pablo collapses onto the ground.]

Deep Voice: You have fallen into my trap!

Madison: The villain!

Dr. Marv: Not on my watch!

[Dr. Marv shoots his gravity gun at the big windows and they break. Then using the gun, it pushes them out the windows.]

The Deep Voice: Nooo!  You darned scientist!

[The group starts running down the street, as they realize the quality of the looks of the  neighborhood increases and the colors become more saturated.]

Isabelle: What was that?

Jeffrey: I believe the game is upgrading. This is The Sims 3 graphics. I’m worried about what might happen when we reach the fourth game.

[The group starts jogging to the next house.]

Madison: Well, we know the villain has to be somewhere around here.

Catalina: Yeah, hopefully.

Videm: Well, we can hide at this house!

Jeffrey: Maybe.

[They go up to the door, knock and a lady greets the group. She has a plumbob above her head.]

???: Hi. My name is Penelope Beil.

Kitten: Great, another person.

Sam: Ooh, are you an evil person!?

Madison: Really, Sam? I’m sorry about his question.

Penelope: It’s ok. People can have bad emotions.

[Penelope twitches after saying ‘emotions’, and some of the group back away in horror.]

Jeffrey: Okay. Um. Well, we must be going, bye.

[The group starts walking away, when they realize the plumbob disappeared and Penelope falls to the ground.]

Penelope: Ru…n… before… he… GETS YOU!

Sara: Ew!

Videm: What the hell?!

Dr. Marv: The plumbob must be the controlling factor.

Madison: It has to be the player of this game!

[The group starts running away as the grass starts turning a more neon green.]

Jeffrey: The game is upgrading again! We gotta run!

[The group starts running again towards the street. The sky becomes a bright blue and the colors become extremely saturated. Some of them look behind to see Penelope, who has a more cartoon-ish look. She stands up and looks at the group from afar.]

Sam: Oh god…

Syrz: Maybe there’s a place we can go to for shelter?

Zeke: There’s a grocery store ahead!

Spicy: We can go in there.

[The group walks into the supermarket, filing between the aisles.]

Sara: Ew! Like where is there a good hiding spot?

[The group looks around.]

Videm: I know!

[Videm points to a cardboard box.]

Videm: We could all hide in here!

Scarlett: How the hell would all of us fit in there!?

Videm: Good point…

Dr. Marv: Over here!

[Dr. Marv motions to a shelving unit, which has space between the wall and a lot of empty boxes. Most of the group hide in the shelving unit, while a few others hide in cardboard boxes. After hiding for a few minutes, a green light glows across the supermarket.]

Pablo and Penelope: Come out, come out, wherever you are. I—we can make a lovely house for you!

Madison:*whisper* That’s the people from earlier!

Jeffrey:*whisper* Wait. Pablo Baisel. Penelope Beil. PB.

Vince:*whisper* Peanut butter?

Sara:*whisper* Ew! Peanut butter.

Jeffrey:*whisper* No. Plumbob. The plumbob took over those innocent people and now it wants to control us.

Zeke: Whoa.

Spicy:*whisper* Shhh.

[The green glow comes right where the group is and a deep voice comes from it.]

Plumbob: You know I have more control now.

[The boxes slide away, showing the group. Everyone can now see a pretty big plumbob with a bright neon green light shining in their faces.]

Sam: AHH!!

Vince: Can you turn the brightness lower?

Plumbob: No. Are you ready to be in my control!?

Jeffrey: Run!

[The group scatters across the supermarket, some even making it outside before Pablo and Penelope run and stand in front of the back and front doors. Jeffrey, Madison, Spicy, Zeke, Dr. Marv, and Videm are stuck inside.]

[Videm and Dr. Marv run up to the freezers.]

Videm: Mmm… Assorted meats.

Dr. Marv: Where’s that plumbob?

Videm: I don’t know… should we hide?

Dr. Marv: Yeah, but I don’t know where.

[Dr. Marv is looking over the freezer weirdly.]

Videm: Something wrong?

Dr. Marv: We could hide in the meats, but I'd be too cold.

Videm: You seem off.

Dr. Marv: It’s just meat.

Videm: Whatever, that one guy is gone, let’s go.

[Videm and Dr. Marv run out the door.]

[Zeke and Spicy have stayed where they were hiding.]

Spicy: This is crazy.

Zeke: We can’t stay here forever. That diamond thing is sure to find us.

Spicy: We should stay here for a while.

[They hear Jeffrey yelling “Noo”.]

Spicy: Ok. Maybe we should go…

[They hear Jeffrey running by and then they jump up.]

[Jeffrey and Madison run up to Pablo.]

Jeffrey: Pablo! You can resist its control, right? You have to. Just let us out!

Madison: I don’t think he can…

Jeffrey: That plumbob is too strong, we need to get out of here.

[They start to run in the opposite direction to see the floating plumbob right there.]

Plumbob: Hello, Jeffrey.

Jeffrey: How do you know my name!?

Plumbob: I am connected to all Sims games. I can see your saved games. I could say them right—

Jeffrey: Don’t! I mean—uh, no worries…

Madison: What’s wrong with your saved games?

Jeffrey: Um, nothing.

Plumbob: Embarrassed huh? Well, let’s see what your saved games are.

Let’s start with Sims 3.

Jeffrey: No!

[Jeffrey runs and jumps to punch the plumbob, but an invisible force pushes him away.]

Madison: Jeffrey!

Plumbob: Hmm… The Southworth family. Composed of Jennifer and Henry. They look just like you and Madison.

Madison: You know my name too…

Jeffrey: Please stop!

Plumbob: and in Sims 4. The Anderson Family. Comprising of Jeffrey and Madison, and they’re married.

[Jeffrey runs to the other side of the store, leaving Madison.]

Madison: Jeffrey!

Plumbob: Well since you’re here… Pablo!

[Pablo, who is behind Madison, grabs Madison’s arms.]

Madison: No! Let me go!

[The Plumbob got closer to Madison and then took control of her.]

Plumbob[Through Madison]: Well, this body will be perfect.

[Madison walks to the other side of the store and she runs into Spicy and Zeke.]

Spicy: Oh hello Madison.

Zeke: Where’s Jeffrey?

Madison: I don’t know, but I think he’s fine.

Spicy: That’s Good.

Zeke: Are you fine?

Madison: I don’t know, are you?

[Madison then trips Zeke, and kicks Spicy, making them fall down.]

[The Plumbob comes out of Madison, leaving a confused Madison on the floor.]

Plumbob: Ah. Spicy. Your saved games have been interesting to see.

Spicy: Uh… thanks?

Plumbob: And that guy… I don’t know you.

Zeke: Yeah… Sims wasn’t my game.

Plumbob: Well, I hope I can make it your game.

Spicy: Oh no.

[Spicy and Zeke get up and start running. They find Jeffrey, who is covering his face in a corner.]

Jeffrey: Just go away!

Spicy: It’s me Spicy.

Jeffrey: Did I ask who’s there? No I didn’t.

Spicy: Sorry…

Zeke: Look Madison got possessed and we need to get out of here.

Jeffrey: Just leave me to die.

Spicy: Jeffrey. I know you get angry and sad. But please, you can’t just die.

[Dr. Marv and Videm run up to them.]

Dr. Marv: No need to be a bother, but that plumbob is starting to change the whole store.

[They look over to see walls, pools, and random furniture appearing all over the place. A hole in the wall behind Dr. Marv and Videm explain their appearance.]

Spicy: Madison is still in there.

[Jeffrey suddenly gets up and starts running toward the plumbob.]

Zeke: Good luck!

Plumbob: Ha. Jeffrey. You decided to come on back.

Jeffrey: Where’s Madison!?

[Madison walks up with Pablo and Penelope.]

Jeffrey: She’s another one of your servants!

Plumbob: Maybe. Madison! Attack him!

[Madison runs at Jeffrey and starts punching and shooting her hand forward at great speed.]

Jeffrey: I don’t want to fight you Madison! Please, I know you’re in there.

[Jeffrey holds Madison back and then twirls her around to make her dizzy. Then Jeffrey runs at Plumbob to punch him but the invisible force gets him again.]

Jeffrey: Darn it. What am I supposed to do… Wait! I know his weakness.

[Jeffrey finds a pool nearby and pushes Pablo and Penelope in. He pushes shelves to block a way out of the pool.]

Plumbob: Ahh! My servants! Madison!

[Madison runs at Jeffrey again, but he gets a rope and pulls it taut in front of her. This trips her and then he ties her up. Jeffrey runs to the front counter and puts Madison in front of the cash register.]

Jeffrey: Plumbobs can’t control people at work.

Plumbob: No! You have gotten rid of all my servants. I don’t have a body to possess. You will pay!

 [Plumbob builds more walls and rooms making a tower.]

[Jeffrey starts climbing up the tower, over random furniture and he sees a figure at the top. He looks closer to see Madison.]

Madison: Jeffrey, it’s me!

Jeffrey: How did you get up here?

[Madison pulls Jeffrey up onto a platform at the top and then pushes him to the floor.]

Jeffrey: What the—

Madison: Language.

Jeffrey: Why are you—

[Madison slaps him.]

Jeffrey: Is the plumbob still possessing you!?

Madison: Yeah, like I’d let him control me.

Jeffrey: What?

[Madison’s face starts deforming, and then her whole body becomes someone brand new. An older lady now stands in front of Jeffrey.]

Older lady: Hello sweetie, I know you’re so worried about me. I smoke and my health scares you.

Jeffrey: Grandma Hart…? What are you?

Grandma Hart: I’m your grandma, silly.

Jeffrey: Just… go away!

[Jeffrey gets up and tries to run as his grandma becomes Madison again and runs in front of him.]

Madison: Where do you think you’re going?

Jeffrey: Away from you…

Madison: Don’t you want to tell me something? Don’t you want me to pleasure you?

Jeffrey: Ew no!

[Madison starts deforming once again and becomes a tall guy.]

Jeffrey: Griffin…?

Griffin: Hey Jeff. I know you want me to pleasure you more than anybody. You don’t have the courage to have love for anybody else except for me…

Jeffrey: Go away!

Griffin: You don’t even express being bisexual. Maybe you’re just gay…

Jeffrey: No!

[Jeffrey tries to run away but Griffin grabs him back.]

Jeffrey: Just stop!

[Jeffrey pushes Griffin back and he falls onto the ground. Griffin starts deforming and spreading out as more than just one person is created. The plumbob appears, Griffin, Madison, his grandma, and a bunch of other people.]

Jeffrey: What’s going on…?

Griffin: Don’t you see, you’re jealous or worried about all these people. You have to be more courageous and true to yourself.

Madison: Don’t you want me?

Jeffrey: Yes! No! I don’t know!

Jeffrey’s Grandma: You’re so indecisive! You make me have to make so many different meals and decide what you want for dinner every time!

Jeffrey: I’m… sorry!

[Plumbob holds up a picture of a Skype call with people’s faces.]

Plumbob: You’re always envious of your friend’s webcams and what games they have and play. You want all the money in the world. But you don’t get anything!

[Jeffrey looks down and holds his head, but then grins and he looks up].

Jeffrey: I understand…

Madison: What?

Jeffrey: Madison… I love you.

[Madison disappears.]

Jeffrey: I don’t want anything to do with you, Griffin.

[Griffin disappears.]

Jeffrey: I am worried for you. I miss you and I love you so much, Grandma.

[Grandma Hart disappears.]

Jeffrey: I hate all of you. And I am jealous of all of you for your popularity, accessibility to things, your technology, and your not-so-protective parents.

[The other people disappear.]

Jeffrey: It’s done.

Plumbob: You think so, little boy?

Jeffrey: I am not a little boy. I’m sorry for never playing The Sims anymore, but I still love it. I love the things I love and I hate the things I hate, and I can admit that.

Plumbob: You think you can get rid of me so easily? I just made sims to look like your family and friends to mock you, and I can make so many more.

Jeffrey: If you know how much I overthink, how much I overburden, and how much I am overwhelmed, then you know all my wraths. I wanted to kill all those bullies for so long, but I wasn’t up to it. However, I can let all my anger out by killing you.

[The plumbob turns red as Jeffrey starts running at it. The plumbob tries using its invisible force it used before but Jeffrey pushes through it. Jeffrey punches the plumbob, pushing it onto the ground. He finds a TV on the ground as it starts to rain. He throws the TV onto the plumbob which electrocutes him.]

Plumbob: Ow you bi—

Jeffrey: Language.

[Jeffrey grabs a piece of concrete off the tower and quickly builds a slingshot. He launches the concrete and it hits a power button by the black box in the “sky”.]

Plumbob: Nooo! What have you done!?

[Plumbob disappears as Madison climbs up the tower. Jeffrey notices her immediately and runs over to her while the tower is falling apart.]

Jeffrey: Madison, look. I have loved you for a long time… and I always meant to ask you out after high school.

Madison: Yeah…

Jeffrey: I’m sorry about everything and I want to know… will you love me?

[Jeffrey pulled Madison all the way up and Madison kissed him on the lips.]

Jeffrey: What…?

Madison: Take that as your answer.

[The tower starts falling apart as they start falling to their doom. They hold each other's hands as they fall. Madison looks up at Jeffrey.]

Madison: You fought your villain up here didn’t you?

Jeffrey: Yeah…

[The world completely disappears except for the original grass plot and they both hit the ground and the screen fades to black.]

[In the mansion, Jeffrey and Madison are laying on beds in a room, just waking up.]

Jeffrey: What… what happened?

Spicy: You’re awake!

Zeke: You guys fell from the sky and you guys took a hard landing. We brought you guys back here as soon as we could.

Madison: You did it then.

Jeffrey: Did what?

Madison: Defeated the villain.

Jeffrey: Oh yeah.

[Jeffrey turns to lay on his side, and something is in his pocket.]

Jeffrey: Ow! What is that?

[Jeffrey takes out a green plumbob rock from his pocket.]

Madison: For the next portal…

[An awkward silence settles in.]

Spicy: Well, you should get some rest.

Zeke: Yeah. Get well soon.

[Spicy and Zeke leave the room.]

Jeffrey: Well… I’m sorry that I made us in the Sims and was pretty creepy.

Madison: It’s ok. It’s not the creepiest thing in the world. And I also kind of heard part of you talking to the plumbob and the versions of me and your friends…

Jeffrey: Oh…

Madison: But at least you got it all out.

Jeffrey: Yeah, those feelings were trapped inside for a long time. It felt really good to release them after so long.

Madison: I’m glad.

[They sit for a little while in silence.]

Jeffrey: I—I love you…

Madison: I… love you too.

[The camera pans away from them, out the window and showing the blue sky, which then fades to black.]


Episode 13 - Welcome Back

???: Who do you want? I—I’ll do it, all for the plan.

???: I’’f,, E’,v,e’

???: Shh… don’t say that!… He’s right here.

[The camera showed a silhouette of a child.]

???: ‘ee,v t’ee, ,fee’

???: It’s risky, sure, but I will do anything to stop him.

???: F’ee, ve’e, p’ov’fee, ,ee’

???: W—What about her?

???: ‘eee ,vf’ ‘ee,fee’ ‘ee,

???: No! I—I didn’t agree to… *sigh* I—I know, you’re right…

[The unknown man looked at his child, who was vacantly staring at the unknown woman.]

???: This is it… you be good

[The woman hastily grabbed the child, who refused to go away from the man. He only looked down with his hat in his hands and on his chest. He looked up at the child once more, who was crying for him. Tears ran down his cheeks, but he looked away to wipe them.]

[He never saw his child. Not for a long, long time.]

[The alarm around the mansion rings. In the rooms, people are sluggishly waking up. In the kitchen, Dale is startled, as he falls off the cutting table, and lands on top of a sleeping Dave.]

Dave: OW!

Dale: OOF!

[People head out of their rooms, seeing Dr. Marv near the stairs at the start of the hallway.]

Dr. Marv: Up and at ‘em boys and girls! We have a very special day today!

Minami: What’s up with today?

Dr. Marv: Today, I have finally finished my project I’ve been working on for many days, months, and years!

Isabelle: What is it?

Dr. Marv: Come, come, I’ll show you!

[Everyone walks down the main stairs, seeing a big machine in the middle of the main hall.]

Videm: What’s that supposed to be?

Dr. Marv: I have no ‘official’ name, yet, but what I do know is what it does! Ladies and gentlemen, I present to you, the dimension machine!

[Dr. Marv flicks one of the levers, and suddenly, a sphere forms underneath the huge, mechanical pedestal.]

Minami: Oh shit! That’s looks fucking epic!

Jeffrey: How does it look like me?

Isabelle: What are its functions?

Dr. Marv: I’ve thought, what is the greatest problem we’re having with coming up with new ideas?

Videm: Your face?

Dr. Marv: Yes!—wait, what? No! The greatest problem is our minds! Ever heard of the phrase “Only your imagination is the limit”? Well, this fixes that problem! If the minimum options have been selected, and the power lever has been flicked, then a sphere will open up into a random, alternate dimension!

Scarlett: Cool, I don’t care.

Sara: Ew! Me neither.

Isabelle: This is the greatest invention yet! We could solve many problems by using it as a time machine as well as a dimension hopper!

Videm: So this is why you’ve been typing and writing a lot!

Dr. Marv: Indeed it is! Now, shall we do a test run!?

Minami: What is it already set to?

Dr. Marv: Let’s see, it’s been set to Frequency 2.51/5*, X = 5.123 ^ 10^6, Y = 9.001 ^ 10^3, and some other unimportant stuff that may or may not allow dimensions where Earth has been decimated! Let’s go!

Videm: Yay!—wait what?!

[Dr. Marv jumps in and disappears. Isabelle follows.]

Sam: Hopefully Fallout 4 came out in this dimension!

[Sam jumps in.]

Vince: When we get back, I’m going to totally not snap Sam’s neck and cut his body into a million bits and pieces burying them in a whole and then taking out all of that dirt and putting it into someone’s mouth, for they will soon be called cannibals for eating Sam’s rotten flesh.

Minami: Might as well, I’m just curious.

[Everyone eventually jumps in.]

[They are warping through time, falling through a wormhole. Most of them scream, while Dr. Marv is looking forward, observing the tunnel.]

Dr. Marv: Magnificent! It looks prettier in person!

Sam: Whoa! This looks like Doctor Who going through space, time, and trains!

Catalina: I don’t think that last part was in Doctor Who…

[The camera flashes white, as the group is finally transferred into the specified dimension, which is a city covered in chrome and futuristic materials. They land on the metallic bench in front of a futuristic water.]

Videm: Whoa, what is this?

Dr. Marv: It’s October 23rd, 20015 on the moon Titan!

Isabelle: How do you know we’re on Titan?

Vince: Also, how are we breathing?

Dr. Marv: They must have installed some sort of futuristic oxygen distribution system on the moon. Also, I have memorized each and every one of the moon’s atmosphere patterns. Astronomy is quite amazing. Go ahead, go explore!

[The group splits up, exploring the place.]

Videm: Oooo, what’s this water made of?

Minami: Uh… water?

Videm: Maybe it’s like some sort of mutant water people find yummy!

Minami: I wouldn’t—

[Videm swiftly drinks the water in the fountain, but right as his tongue meets with the disgusting water, he does a spit take at Minami.]

Minami: Why do people always accidently aim at others when they do a spit take!

Videm: Yeah, accidently…

Minami: So, how was the water?

Videm: It tastes just like regular water! With a little pint of feces or coins…

Minami: You’ve tasted coins before? Nevermind the coins, you’ve tasted feces before!?

Videm: I… I’ve been through some stuff…

[Dr. Marv and Isabelle are walking along the sidewalk, looking around and seeing futuristic people.]

Dr. Marv: So strange, these people. They’re looking at us like we just bit off a cobra’s face.

Isabelle: It’s probably because we’re dressed like we’re in 2015…

Dr. Marv: You make quite a good point.

Random Citizen: Hah, nice clothing, gontrigo people!

Dr. Marv: Why, thank you!

[The Random Citizen looks at him oddly.]

Isabelle: I think that was supposed to be an insult…

Dr. Marv: What does gontrigo mean!?

Random Citizen: Pssh, yondoks.

[The Random Citizen walks away.]

Isabelle: Looks like humans haven’t changed their… personalities…

[The two stop at a shop, which reads “The Time Guys”. They enter, seeing several, floating devices that look like automated security doors. They see a huge hologram in a huge building.]

Dr. Marv: This looked smaller from the outside…

Isabelle: The future has actual paradoxes!

[Zeke and Spicy are looking around, and Spicy sees a cave.]

Spicy: Hm?  Look at this cave!

Zeke: A cave?

Spicy: Yeah, let’s go in!

Zeke: Uh… okay.

[There is a guard blocking the entrance, but Spicy and Zeke find a side gate entrance with the sign “DO NOT ENTER!” The two enter the cave.]

Zeke: It’s so dark…

Spicy: Did you bring some sort of flashlight?

Zeke: No, I didn’t.

Spicy: Do you have your phone?

Zeke: Oh, right.

[Zeke brings out his phone and activates a flashlight app.  The cave is filled with drawings on the walls.]

Zeke: Oh, my god… these works are beautiful…

Spicy: Uh… Zeke, shine the light here.

[There is a giant painting of a woman with a noose around her neck, her long dress flowing in the wind.]

Zeke: I…

Spicy: Oh, my… god…

[Zeke remains silent, and shines the light at the ground near his feet.]

Spicy: Zeke… I’m so sorry…

Zeke: It’s not your fault, it’s just a random painting, it means nothing.

Spicy: We can leave if you want to.

Zeke: Spicy, what was your childhood like?

Spicy: Where is that coming from?

Zeke: I… I’m sorry.

Spicy: It’s okay.  My childhood was amazing.

Zeke: When my mom committed suicide, I was so conflicted… I constantly blamed myself.  I was the one who ran away.
Spicy: Well, you know it’s not your fault, right?  She was mentally ill.

Zeke: But I left her.

Spicy: She kicked you out, and so did your father.  If anything, it’s your dad’s fault for not helping her.

Zeke: I guess…

Spicy: Come on, let’s go farther into the cave and see what we can find.

[The two continue walking, and the screen switches to the next scene.]

[The group meets up. Then, a loud explosion booms from the fountain. There, a tall man with strange, wacky clothing stands.]

Tall Man: Everybody! This is your president speaking, President George the Fifth to the First Exponent! I’ve come up here to announce that WE’RE UNDER ATTACK AND YOU SHOULD BE IN YOUR BUNKERS RIGHT NOW! WHAT ARE YOU DOING OUT HERE!? RUN FOR IT!

[Everyone walks casually into their bunkers, while some of the group freaks out, but stare at the people strangely when they walk in an orderly fashion.]

Sam: Whoa, that’s so weird.

Videm: They’re not panicking?!

Vince: Well, of course not by the looks of it.

[The President looks at the group.]

President: You citizens, yes you! Who else would I be talking to? Your great papa!? You’re supposed to get inside the bunkers, now!

Minami: D—Did he just say “great papa”?

Videm: I think that was supposed to be a yo mama joke.

President: What’s a “yo mama” joke?

Omar: Yo mama! OOOoohhhhh… no? No one? Okay :(

Minami: Let’s move away from that cringe and ask the President why everyone isn’t panicking about a futuristic war?

President: Kid, I’m right here. And, nobody panics anymore. That’s so 10523.

Dr. Marv: That’s peculiar, I would’ve expected a more formal president.

President: What the hell is “formal”?!

Isabelle: Nevermind that, look!

[Isabelle points towards the sky. The group looks up in awe, seeing the darting missiles heading straight towards them.]

President: It looks like a Keplontrochnolo Type-5124 Missile! Those damn Iapeties, always going big for territory! Well guess what, Iapeties, my son’s going to beat your asses!

Abby: What are you doing out here? Shouldn’t you be inside the bunkers for protection? You are the president after all—

President: Little kids, oh little kids. You just don’t understand! As the president, I shall sacrifice myself through the wars, and my son will take over!

Scarlett: Well, that’s depressing. Have fun dying, then!

Videm: Scarlett!… I totally agree.

Abby: That’s so sad and heroic, yet a little cliche.

President: What’s “cliche”?

Minami: Nevermind that, dude, we’ve gotta save you before the missiles hit us!

[The group evacuates, but Minami, Abby, and Isabelle try to drag the President into the bunker. The President is holding onto the fountain with his hands, while the trio grips onto his legs.]

Minami: Come on, old man! The missiles are getting closer!

Isabelle: We haven’t got all day!

President: I refuse to let go of the feces fountain! It is by order that I shall sacrifice myself!

Abby: You don’t need to! Every life is worth living to the fullest!

President: You don’t under—

[They gaze up at the sky in awe, as the missiles are gorgeously falling like a shooting star. The President screams and gets up, then runs to the bunker.]

President: Screw that, screw that! As president, I am officially declaring that WE RUN!

[The three follow him into the bunker, right before the missile impacts. Everything explodes, and the camera fades to black.]

Announcer: WE’LL BE BACK AFTER THE COMMERCIAL BREAK!

Sick and tired of the Gwen Stefani toothpaste? Well then you’re dumb—I mean, well then it’s time for some change! Introducing… the Christina Aguilera toothpaste! And no this is not just cheap advertising for cheap products based off of the Voice coaches. They even come in different flavors, like: Beautiful Mint, Folgers Coffee flavor, and more! So, buy a tube of Christina Aguilera toothpaste, today!

Announcer: An all new World Dangers!

[SPOILER. WILL MAKE AFTER EPISODE 13 IS FINISHED.]

Announcer: AND NOW WE’RE BACK TO WORLD DANGERS

[The camera pans over the mansion in the starry night. A few owls hoo, as the mammals rustle through the trees. The mansion’s lights are all off. Morris is walking down the halls of the mansion ever so slowly. He carefully examines around him, making sure no one is watching. He heads into the room with the dolls and cobwebs. He sees, at the end of the hall, a little doll that looks like Queen Phantom. He picks it up, grinning, and presses at the doll’s heart. Queen Phantom suddenly jumps out of the doll, laughing maniacally.]

Queen Phantom: Ah, what a pleasant surprise! I’ve been patiently expecting you to come begging for help!

Morris: Queen—Queen Phantom. The group—you know who I’m talking about, right?

Queen Phantom: Does my face grin to the beating of your heart?

[Morris looks up at Queen Phantom, who is grinning with a malevolent passion.]

Morris: They’re getting closer to finishing the task, but they’re also getting closer to finding out the plan.

[Morris lowers his eyebrows.]

Morris: Which, speaking of, you almost revealed!

Queen Phantom: Calm your body, Morris. You already knew from the beginning that this was going to be a hard task.

Morris: I—whatever! There’s no time for talking. Just give me what I requested!

Queen Phantom: Ah, alright!

[Queen Phantom grins even more, lowering down to Morris’s level, and reaching out her hand.]

Morris: What are you doing?

Queen Phantom: Grab my hand, then you shall have yourself a deal.

Morris: I…

[Morris looks nervously at the open hand.]

Queen Phantom: Come on, Morris, you would do it for her… wouldn’t you?

Morris: A—Alright… Deal.

[Morris takes a deep breath, gripping onto Queen Phantom’s hand. Queen Phantom then swoops into the sky, pulling Morris along with her.]

Morris: What the—!

Queen Phantom: AHAHAHAAHAHAHA!

[They are high above the mansion, and in the distance is the little rift that had been opened in the sky. Suddenly, a group of unconscious people fall out onto the roof.]

Queen Phantom: WELCOME BACK!

[The group of people are unconscious,[c][d][e][f] and the rift is then closed, along with Queen Phantom disappearing. Morris falls onto the roof hard, rubbing his head. He gets up, eyeing the group of people.]

Morris: It… it has been done…

[Back in the year 20015, the group is in the bunker.]

Videm: So, is there anything fun we can do down here?

Sam: We can build trains!

Videm: Where are you going to get train parts?

[Sam quickly shuffles through his pocket, getting out a few toy train parts.]

Videm: You carry around toy train parts?!

Sam: Trains are life, Videm. TRAINS ARE LIFE.

Abby: Why does the government enforce the sacrifice?

President: It is to prevent people from getting annoyed by bad presidents, but also to refresh when a good president has done his job.

Minami: I—well, it does make sense.

President: Ever since Earth had been overpopulated, we decided it was best to move to any planet. The first Mars population was a huge success, so everyone was in a rush to move to each planet, but then that ended up in a disastrous traffic of desperate people…

Minami: Damn, I guess the future is still the present and the past combined.

President: I’ve noticed… you guys are all dressed up strangely. I don’t know if it’s your idiotic sense of fashion, or if you guys are from the future…

Abby: Actually, we come from the past.

Minami: Yeah, the year 2015.

President: What!? Outrageous! That’s like… Dededede years back!

Abby: De what!?

President: What? Did the past have a different system of mathematics?

Minami: Well, from 2015 to 20015 that’d be… 18,000 years from our knowledge of mathematics.

President: Interesting, quite interesting! But, you do know time travel is outlawed, and that I will have to arrest you?

Minami: Hey, man. You broke a few laws yourself.

President: You forced me into the bunker!

Minami: True, true…

President: I’m afraid once this war is over, I will have to hide in the bunker until my death.

Abby: But… wouldn’t you be lonely?

President: Oh, I’ve been lonely for De years!

Abby: Oh…  That’s sad, I guess…

[All of a sudden, an outside bell rings loudly. People begin to casually head out of their bunkers.]

President: Please, go on without me children… I’m afraid that time has come.

Dr. Marv: What time?

President: Well, isn't there a time limit on time travel?

Dr. Marv: A wh—

[Suddenly, a rift opens, and the group is sucked back in.]

Videm: OH GOD- WHAT THE—EEEEEE—

[The group falls out of the machine, bumping into each other. Then, when they fall out, some stack on top of each other like a dog pile.]

Videm: OW! WHY DID I HAVE TO BE ON THE BOTTOM!

Vince: Yay, I’m on the top!

[Everyone gets up as the machine turns off.]

Minami: Was that intended?

Dr. Marv: I never knew there was a time limit. Let’s just hope the quantum momentum hasn’t run out.

[Dr. Marv runs over to the machine, flipping switches frantically, when all of a sudden, Morris appears on the stairs.]

Morris: Ah, salutations, dear guests of Fishtrought Mansion!

[The group looks back, except Dr. Marv, who is still flipping switches.]

Videm: Morris? I thought you went into the portal.

Minami: Ayy Morris, what’s up man?

Morris: I’m sorry, but what language are you speaking in?

Minami: It’s slang for “Greetings”!

Morris: Interesting… anyway, Dr. Marv. Have you finished configuring the portal?

Dr. Marv: Yup, just got done! This time, we’ll be able to go into the old dimension!

Kitten: Wait—what!?

Videm: Hold on, slow down. The old dimension?

Dr. Marv: You guys wanted to go back, didn’t you?

Videm: Well, not really…

Dr. Marv: So, you don’t want to go back?

Videm: It’s a complicated situation. I mean, what would we say to our old selves?

Dr. Marv: Probably nothing because it would most likely erupt a black hole if you came into contact with your old selves, but that doesn’t matter!

Morris: Perfect…

Dr. Marv: What do you mean perfect? A black hole is nothing to play with.

Morris: Ah, but, that’s where you’re wrong, Dr. Marv…

[Morris steps forward, grinning.]

Sam: Whoa, you look creepy, just like Vince!

Vince: Says you. Before we went into the portal, I said I would do something, so come on, let’s go. *winks*

Morris: I’m sincerely sorry for this.

Isabelle: Sorry for wh—

[Suddenly, Morris raises his hands, which causes the group to float.]

Omar: AAAAHHHHHHHHH!

Dr. Marv: I knew something was up with this butler—if that’s who you really are!

Morris: Oh, I am a butler. But this time, it’s time you serve me!

[Morris motions a throw, which causes switches to flip by themselves, causing the portal to open. The group flies into the portal, then Morris swiftly runs to the machine, flicking a switch off, preventing the group from going back.]

Outro

[The group of people on the roof of Fishtrought Mansion get up, looking around.]

Person: Where are we?

Another Person: I don’t know… That lady must’ve captured us into her dimension!

Another Another Person: Darnit that lady, she’s too powerful!

Person: We can’t give up. Wherever we are, we must still fight on.

[Person gets up, and takes off their hood, as the camera switches to the person’s face, revealing a younger version of Spicy.]


Episode 14 - Two Disconnected Souls

[The sunny skies reflect the shiny windows on the mansion. The trees glimmer after the stormy night, and the sand sparkles like a Utopia. The group of young people walk up to the mansion porch after climbing down from the roof.]

Past Videm: Let’s knock on it!

Past Vince: Yay!

[Past Videm knocks on the door eagerly, and suddenly Morris opens it, grinning with joy.]

Morris: Ah, I’m glad to see all of you!

Past Kitten: You know all of us? That’s creepy.

Past Videm: Um… do you know why we suddenly woke up on the roof?

Morris: It’s a complicated story, but it would be best if you come inside, and be quick about it.

Past Minami: This guy is strange… I like him!

[Morris lets them in, and they all look all around in awe, noticing the great architectural thought put into the mansion.]

Epic: Wow, the architects must have put a lot of thought into it, just like artists, which I want to be by the way.

Past Spicy: You want to be an artist?  Cool.  I know, like, no artists.

Past Videm: Who are you, anyway? Are you the owner or something?

Morris: I exist to be your butler in the duration of this stay.

Past Kitten: That’s epic.

Epic: No it’s not, I’m not an old man.

[Morris slightly grunts at the comment.]

Morris: Anyway, allow me to escort you to your rooms and then I will prepare dinner.

[Morris takes the group to their respective rooms. However, new characters take new rooms, like Tiny, Smile, and Thefyo.]

[In the Dimension Warp Hole, the original group is indefinitely falling.]

Videm: Where are we heading!?

Dr. Marv: I don’t know, but it doesn’t look too good for us!

Videm: I told you all we should’ve never trusted him!

Kitten: I believed he was suspicious too!

Videm: Well, I don’t like being wrong!

Sam: As suspicious as a hobo on a train.

Vince: Hobos on trains are typical.

Jeffrey: Wait! I see light, guys!

Omar: AAAAAAHHHHH!

[The group quickly falls into that light, and wakes up hazily on the ground.  They look around, finding themselves in a beautifully decorated room.  Zeke immediately recognizes his surroundings.]

Zeke: Wh—Why are we here?

Jeffrey: What do you mean “why are we here”?

Spicy: Is it… your portal?

Zeke: This is… the mansion I lived in, I was raised in…

Videm: You were raised in a mansion? Man, I was raised in a home with 20 people living in it.

Zeke: Yeah, my father was a surgeon at the top of his job and my mother was an anaesthesiologist.

Sam: An ananagloist—what now.

Zeke: She’s the one who puts people to sleep before their surgery.

Omar: I bet she can put me to sleep.

Zeke: Uh…

Videm: Omar, you are so weird and perverted. Just like us :D

Zeke: C’mon, let’s explore.  Maybe there’s someone in here.

Isabelle: Interesting… but why would your villain be here?

Zeke: I have an idea… but I’m not sure.

[The group walks into another room, a living room.  A huge flat screen TV is mounted on a fireplace.  Couches are positioned to fit perfectly into the floor plan.  The room is barren of life, however.]

Catalina: This room is beautiful!

Syrz: What is that?

[Syrz points to the TV.]

Omar: It’s a TV.

Syrz: What does it do?

[Omar turns on the TV, and it suddenly comes to life with a news program.]

News Anchor: In darker news, there has been a murder in paradise.  A 15-year-old male whose family would prefer to keep his identity a secret has been murdered.  More info on this coming soon.

Zeke: Huh?  That sounds familiar…

Videm: A murder?…

Vince: A murder? This is like Persona 4 :D

Spicy: Hm… it sounds familiar?  What do you mean?

Zeke: I think this is in the past- well, the dimension is based on the past.  This news show, what is the date it says on it?

Omar: It says November 23rd, but it doesn’t have a year…

Zeke: That’s right!  This was the night that…

[Spicy widens their eyes.]

Spicy: But why…?

Zeke: Come on.  We have to… we have to keep moving.

[Zeke leads the group through various rooms.  He finally reaches a door at the end of a hallway that is locked.]

Zeke: It’s locked… of course…

Alice: Catalina!  You can pick locks, can’t you?

Catalina: Oh, right!  Does anyone have a hairpin or something?

[Scarlett gives her a hairpin.]

Catalina: Thanks.

[Catalina gets to work, but her work is interrupted by a sudden voice.]

Male Voice: What are you doing here!?

Zeke: Huh!?

[Everyone looks at the man who had walked up behind the group.  The man is wearing a suit, and has a buzzcut.  He is holding a briefcase.]

Kriev: My name is Kriev.  I don’t expect any of you to know me.

Spicy: What are you doing here?

Kriev: Simple.  I’m here to stop you from learning the truth.

Spicy: The truth!?  What are you talking about!?

Zeke: Spicy, you know what he’s talking about, you don’t have to lie for me.

Spicy: Huh?

Zeke: I already know the truth, you bastard.  I know that this is the date my mother killed herself.

Kriev: Oh, so you only know the premise.

Zeke: What the hell are you talking about!?

Kriev: I don’t share my secrets with teenagers who don’t know their places.  I’m taking my leave, but you’ll find that you cannot enter the room with a petty lock-picking technique.

[Kriev walks away and slowly disappears.]

Zeke: Okay.  We have to get into this room, because it’s probably where my villain is.  Everyone, if you don’t mind, please look around the mansion and see what you can find.

~Videm, Jeffrey, and Sam~

Videm: Damn, these paintings look awesome!

Jeffrey: It’s just a naked lady looking desperately at a couple of men fighting.

Videm: The Renaissance and Baroque times were weird…

Sam: Ew, boring history stuff—OMG! IS THAT THE TOY REPLICA OF A TRAIN FROM 1965!?

[Sam runs up to the desk, but accidently bumps it, causing the train to fall and shatter.]

Jeffrey: Come on guys, we’ve got to keep looking for his villain.

~Syrz and Omar~

Syrz: Look at the delicacy of this… what did you call it?

Omar: A bathtub?

Syrz: Right!

Omar: I want to sit down and poo in this toilet.

Syrz: Oh, my… I do too, now that I think about it…

[The two laugh immaturely.]

Syrz: I am way too honest with you now.  I suppose that’s a good sign.

Omar: Yeah.

Syrz: But, in Ordera, wifes and husbands aren’t allowed to converse as if they were close friends.  Married couples must be very formal with each other at all times.  Of course, the woman is the dominant one in the relationship.

Omar: Weird.

Syrz: Looking at this world, there are so many different things… it’s all so strange.

~Spicy and Zeke~

Spicy: I’m proud of how well you’re doing.

Zeke: Give me more credit.

Spicy: You’re right.

[The two look around, and realize they are in a bedroom.]

Zeke: This was… my bedroom.

Spicy: How can you tell?  It looks like all of the others.

Zeke: That mark on the wall, there.  I drew on the wall when I was a little kid, and my father punished me for it.

Spicy: Your father… what happened to him?

Zeke: He… I don’t know.  Everything was a blur after I saw mother kill herself.

Spicy: Zeke, I, um…

Zeke: Yeah?

Spicy: Am I your, er, first partner?

Zeke: You should know this, of course you are.

Spicy: Oh, okay.

Zeke: Am… I your first?

Spicy: Honestly, er, no.  You’re my first real boyfriend, I should say.

Zeke: I… I want you to be honest with me.  Are you a virgin?

Spicy: Y—Yeah… didn’t we already talk about this once?

Zeke: We did, but… I want to lose my virginity to you.

Spicy: Where is this coming from!?

Zeke: I’m scared, Spicy.  I just… I need…

[Spicy kisses Zeke.  The two start to undress, and they jump on the bed as the screen fades to black.]

[The group meets in the living room.]

Zeke: What did you guys find out?

Syrz: Omar and I found out that the water in this place is indeed top quality.

Jeffrey: Videm found a naked lady on a painting.

Videm: Hey, I don’t care about any naked lady.

Abby: I wouldn’t say that.

Sam: Well, I broke a train. Rest in peace that train :(

Catalina: Alice and I found a dining room.  We couldn’t find anything in it, though.

Dr. Marv: I have a theory everyone.

[The group pays their attention to Dr. Marv, who stands up.]

Dr. Marv: Morris must’ve sent us into some sort of playlist of dimensions, and the dimensions are all of our remaining portals that we were supposed to go through.

Videm: Well, then how would we get out of this mess?

Dr. Marv: We need to find some sort of unpatched rift that may allow us to get back, maybe we should make a deal with a 12 year old.

Jeffrey: If we kill all of our villains, which at this point I’m not even sure if they truly are the villains, then Morris might release his ultimate plan…

Videm: Of what? We don’t know his plans…

[Suddenly, Zeke falls to the ground.]

Spicy: Zeke!

[Spicy goes to Zeke’s side.]

Zeke: I’m fine…

Spicy: No you’re not!

[Spicy puts Zeke on a couch.]

Catalina: What’s wrong!?

Videm: Who here is a doctor?

Dr. Marv: I don’t know.

[Videm blankly stares at Dr. Marv.]

Videm: I’m talking about you!

Dr. Marv: Oh, right! Well, I’m not that kind of doctor you’re thinking of!

Isabelle: Hold my lab coat, I worked as a nurse when I was a teenager.

[Dr. Marv holds Isabelle’s lab coat, while she reaches out to Zeke. She listens for a heartbeat.]

Isabelle: Well, his heart's still beating, and it seems like he’s still breathing… I don’t see anything wrong with him.

Spicy: Then why did he fall?

Isabelle: Maybe he had a tiny stroke?

Videm: No one has a tiny stroke and falls.

Zeke: I’ll be fine, it’s okay…

Spicy: But you still haven’t confronted your villain!  How will you be able to confront them without your strength?

Zeke: I’ll handle it, don’t worry about me.

[Suddenly, everyone hears footsteps.]

Kriev: Guess who?
[Spicy stands.]

Spicy: This is your fault, isn’t it!?

Kriev: I was growing bored of watching you all—especially you two.  Yes, I saw what you did in that bedroom.  Most awkward fifteen minutes of my life.

Spicy: Answer the question!

Kriev: I didn’t do anything to Zeke.  If Zeke would just remember what really happened that night, none of you would even be in this mansion right now.

Zeke: What are you talking about?

Kriev: Zeke and Spicy, please come with me.  I’m going to let you two—and only you two into that room.

Videm: Why just them two? You sound suspicious.

Jeffrey: Yeah, that’s so “group-ist”.

Vince: And Michelle-ist.

[Kriev leads the two into the locked room, Spicy supporting Zeke.]

[Spicy and Zeke enter the room, and Kriev has disappeared.  There is no one in the room, not even the dead body of Zeke’s mother.]

Zeke: Huh?  If this is supposed to be November 23rd… she should be here…

Spicy: What’s going on?  Why did he bring me in here?  This is supposed to be your villain…

[Zeke suddenly falls once again, this time with a scream.]

Spicy: Zeke!  Oh my god, what’s wrong!?

Zeke: I… I remember… I remember everything…

Spicy: Zeke!?  What do you remember!?

Zeke: My mother… didn’t commit suicide…

Spicy: Zeke, you aren’t making any sense, what are you talking about!?

Zeke: My father!  He was the murderer!  My father killed her!

Announcer: We’ll be back after the commercial break!

Announcer: And now we’re back to World Dangers

[While Spicy is still confused, Kriev once again enters the room.]

Kriev: Good job, Zeke.  You finally remember.

Zeke: Yeah, I do… father.

Kriev: Oh, so that wasn’t the only thing you remembered.

Zeke: Yeah, I remember everything…

Kriev: Then maybe you should explain to Spicy here how I’m not the villain of this portal.

Zeke: What do you…?

[Zeke suddenly screams again, falling to the floor.]

Zeke: No… god… fucking… no…

Spicy: What are you—

[Kriev has disappeared.]

Zeke: Spicy… I now know… this isn’t my portal… it’s ours.

Spicy: Wait… what!?  What does this have to do with me!?

Zeke: It has to do with you, probably more than you know…

Spicy: Then… who is our villain?

Zeke: The real question is… “who is your villain?”.

Spicy: I don’t understand, please stop talking in enigmas…

Zeke: Spicy, you remember that news cast, right?  Where the 15-year-old was murdered?

Spicy: Yeah, of course.

Zeke: That 15-year-old was… me.

Spicy: Was… you?  You… that’s not… you’re alive!  What are you…?

Zeke: Spicy, I’m your villain.

Spicy: Huh!?  How are you my villain!?

Zeke: We are the same person.

Spicy: What the fuck is going on here!?  Zeke, please tell me this is all a joke…

Zeke: I am the person you desire to be, and that is the reason I was created.

Spicy: I…

Zeke: However, I was killed.  I am a human, I’m not just a part of your subconscious.

Spicy: Zeke, I…

Zeke: I don’t know why we met, and I don’t care about it.  When we met, I knew we were meant to be together.

Spicy: Zeke, I honestly don’t know what to say…

Zeke: Then don’t say anything.

[Zeke grabs Spicy’s hand and leads them through the mansion.  The two arrive at the dining table.]

Zeke: Here we are.

[Spicy looks around, and sees a platter covered by a silver lid.  Zeke takes off the lid, revealing orange chicken.]

Spicy: You… you did this for me?

Zeke: I found a recipe on Pinterest.  I know you were going to make it for me, but, I mean…

Spicy: Zeke…

Zeke: Let’s try it, okay?

[The two begin to eat the orange chicken.  Once they finish, they stand.]

Spicy: So, we should go back to that room?

Zeke: Wait, one second.

[Zeke walks up to Spicy, and gives them a hug.]

Spicy: What are you doing?

Zeke: Sometimes actions speak louder than words.

Spicy: …

[Zeke lets go of Spicy.]

Zeke: You taught me that.
Spicy: If you’re my villain… am I supposed to defeat you?

Zeke: Yes, but not by fighting me.

Spicy: Then… how?

Zeke: You have to let me die.

Spicy: I have to… let you die?

Zeke: It’s the only way.

Spicy: But I… can’t…

Zeke: You have to, it’s the only way.

Spicy: But…

Zeke: I can give you two choices.  We can be alone or I can bring everyone in.

Spicy: Zeke, I just want to know… what happened that night?

Zeke: Well…

~Flashback~

[The camera panned over to a door. Yelling banged the door, as loud thuds echoed in the hallway.]

Kriev: You little bitch!  Say it again to my face!

Zeke’s Mother: Please…!

Kriev: I’m going to go get the fag.  If you move from this spot, I’ll beat you even harder…

[Kriev leaves the room.  Zeke’s Mother, crying, looks above her.  She is currently sitting in a closet, clothes strewn across the floor.  The camera goes to what she is looking at, and she sees a hanger.  She grabs it with the rest of her strength, and bends it into a circle.  She takes the hanger and puts it around her neck.  She murmurs something, causing blue dust to fly out of her mouth and disappear into the air.  She takes the hanger and the camera switches to her feet before blood splatters to the floor.  Suddenly, Kriev and Zeke enter the room.]

Kriev: The fuck!?  You see what you’ve done!  You made her kill herself!

Zeke: …

[Kriev slaps Zeke, getting a gasp in response.]

Kriev: This is all your fucking fault!

Zeke: Please…

[Kriev grabs a knife that was on the bedside counter, and approaches Zeke.]

Zeke: F… Father…

Kriev: Don’t fucking call me that.  You’re a fag who made her kill herself.

Zeke: I…

Kriev: You’ll fucking rot in Hell…

[Kriev starts stabbing Zeke mercilessly, the camera switching to the wall behind Zeke, where blood splatters.  Zeke falls to the ground, and Kriev leaves the room.  The camera switches once more to Zeke’s dead body.  Suddenly, Zeke’s eyes open.]

Zeke: Huh…?  What is this…?

[Suddenly, a voice echoes through the room.]

Voice: Zeke… rise…

Zeke: What’s going on!?

Voice: It’s me… your mother.

Zeke: Huh?  What’s going on?

Gratiana: I have to confess something.  I’m not truly your mother, nor is Kriev your actual father.  My name is Gratiana, I am a Sage of Restoration…

Zeke: Huh?  Then…?

Gratiana: I’ve been fostering you, protecting you from Kriev, the Sage of Time.

Zeke: What the hell is going on?  This is so weird…

Gratiana: Please just trust me… you are the other half of a person named Spicy.  I need you to find them, and become an important part of their life… and I need you to become one with them once more.

Zeke: What about you?

Gratiana: My time is up.  I used up the last of my strength in restoring your body.

Zeke: Okay, but…

Gratiana: I trust you can handle this task.

Zeke: What if fath—Kriev… comes back?

Gratiana: He might, but you’re just going to have to stop him, one way or another.

~End of Flashback~

Spicy: So… that’s it, then?  You’re going to become one with me, and that’s it?

Zeke: I’m sorry… I wish this was easier…

Spicy: Okay, I’m ready… call everyone in here.

Zeke: Alright.

[Zeke leaves the room, and returns with everyone.]

Videm: So… what happened?

Zeke: Well, you can tell them, Spicy.

Spicy: Okay, so… it turns out Zeke and I are the same person.

Catalina: Huh?

Zeke: It’s really confusing, I know, but, they have to fuse with me for you guys to be able to go forward…

Syrz: But… you’ll be gone!

Zeke: I won’t be gone, I’ll be a part of Spicy.

Jeffrey: That’s weird…

[if you wants to add some’n add it and tell me if you need a response -spicy.]

[Zeke takes Spicy’s hands.]

Spicy: So… this is it?

Zeke: I guess so.  Are you ready?

[Spicy begins to cry.]

Zeke: Damn it, Spicy… don’t cry…

Spicy: I’m sorry…

[Zeke begins to laugh, and starts to cry as well.]

Zeke: Thank you for making my life livable…

Spicy: You’re thanking me?  You’ve done so much for me…

[Zeke shakes his head, as his feet begin to evaporate into blue dust, the same that came out of Gratiana’s mouth.]

Zeke: You’ve done so much more for me, you are me… the me I always wanted to be…

Spicy: Your… legs!

[The evaporation has risen to Zeke’s thighs.]

Zeke: It’s almost over…

Spicy: Zeke…

Zeke: I love you.

[The evaporation reaches Zeke’s neck.]

Spicy: Zeke… Zeke!  ZEKE!

[Zeke’s head completely evaporates, and the blue dust goes into Spicy’s body.  Spicy falls to the ground in tears, screaming Zeke’s name.]

[The other group (the past group) in the Fishtrought Mansion are all preparing for dinner, visiting other people and all.]

[Thefyo walks up to Past Spicy’s room, knocking on the door. Past Spicy shyly opens it, peering out.]

Thefyo: Hey, Spicy! What’s up!?

Past Spicy: Th… Thefyo? What are you doing here?

Thefyo: Well, I just came to pick up my controller you borrowed from me.

Past Spicy: Oh—h, right. Come in.

[Past Spicy widens the door, then Thefyo walks in, looking around.]

Thefyo: Wow, these rooms smell different.

Past Spicy: What’s that supposed to mean?
Thefyo: Oh, nothing! I was just—oh, hey, there it is!

[Thefyo picks up the controller and grins.]

Past Spicy: Well, I suppose you can leave now.

Thefyo: What?… Can I just stick around, maybe play Coblox with you?—

Past Spicy: Oh, not right now. I’m busy working on… something…

Thefyo: Alright, guess I’ll see you later.

[Thefyo walks out, and Past Spicy shuts the door.]

Past Spicy: *sigh*

[The past group goes down for dinner.]

Morris: I do think you shall enjoy your dinner. It is freshly baked by our professional chefs.

[Dale opens the door with a terrifying scream.]

Morris: Dale? What’s the matter?

Dale: We’re out of onions, Morris!

Morris: Oh. Alright, I shall ship some here, later.

Dale: Good, because life without onions is like living in hell!

[Dale goes back into the kitchen, slamming the door.]

Past Videm: That was interesting…

[Dinner is served, and people start talking.]

~Past Videm, Past Minami, and Tiny~

Tiny: Hey, guys. Who do you think is the hottest chick here?

Past Minami: I don’t know, there doesn’t seem to be very many.

[Past Videm stares at Past Abby, but quickly glances away.]

Past Videm: Yeah, I agree.

Tiny: C’mon dudes. How about Kitten?

Past Minami: Oh, god no. I don’t want to think about that.

Tiny: You guys don’t know true love.

Past Videm: But I’m pretty sure true love doesn’t work the way you think it does…

Tiny: Eh, whatever.

~Past Omar, Past Vince, and Thefyo~

Thefyo: Duuude! Stop flicking stuff at me!

Past Omar: But I like doing that, it’s fun!

Past Vince: Omar, stop it already >.<

Past Omar: You can’t stop me!

[Past Omar throws a plate at Past Vince.]

Past Vince: Ow… Omar… I will stab you twenty-seven times so that there will be twenty-seven stab wounds in your chest. I will put your blood in a jar and spread it all over my wall. It contrasts well with blue.

[Past Vince glares at Past Omar, who is grinning and laughing.]

[Add your thingies here.]

[Past Videm and Past Spicy sneak out of the mansion.]

Past Spicy: Uh… why’d you bring me out here? It’s almost 10 o’clock.

Past Videm: There’s something wrong with this place, I can almost feel it.

[The two head around to the forest, walking along the path. The air is cold and misty, and the breaths coming out of the two produce visible smokes. The footsteps on the gravel are harder than usual, as if the gravel had almost been frozen.]

Past Videm: Why is it so cold, isn’t it summer?

Past Spicy: We don’t know. We just got here.

Past Videm: I looked at my room’s computer’s date, and it said it was July 2nd, 2015.

Spicy: Wait—I thought it was 2012, not 2015…

Past Videm: Exactly, there’s something going on. I don’t think we should trust that Morris guy…

[A rustling noise occurs, and Past Spicy pulls back Past Videm.]

Past Spicy: Wait!—do you hear that?…

[They stand silent for a good minute.]

Past Videm: What’s the big deal?

[The same rustling noise occurs, except it seems closer than before.]

Past Spicy: *whispers* We have to run for it…

Past Videm: But, that’s crazy!

Past Spicy: It’s the only way out…

[They slowly ready themselves for the execution of their plan, when all of a sudden a hooded person jumps out and shouts. Past Videm and Past Spicy scream with fear.]

Hooded Person: SURRENDER NOW!

[Past Videm and Past Spicy run for their lives, but are quickly blocked by a barrier that the Hooded Person casts.]

Past Videm: Who are you!?

Hooded Person: DON’T PLAY STUPID!

[The Hooded Person slowly walks towards them, while Spicy and Videm still stands there shaking in terror. The Hooded Person stands there for a second, then pulls over her hood, glaring at the two.]

Cheryl: Did you hit your heads that hard from that fall?

Announcer: WE’LL BE BACK AFTER THE COMMERCIAL BREAK

[A group of people run around, laughing, playing, then the scene is interrupted by Christana Agurara.]

Hey there kids! I’m Christana Agurara, and you know what I love in the morning?

Folgers Coffee! It’s the best coffee in the world. Even Adam Levine loves it!

[Adam Levine walks in, tied with a bunch of ropes, and Folgers Coffee is splattered all over his face.]

Adam: Help me…

Christana: Anyways, as you can see, he loves it so much that he splattered it all over his face to melt his flesh!

~Jingle: The best part of waking up, is Folgers in your cup~

Announcer: AND WE’RE BACK TO WORLD DANGERS

Past Videm: We don't know who you are!

Past Spicy: Y—Yeah!

Cheryl: You brats, how could you have forgotten?!

[Cheryl glares at Past Videm.]

Cheryl: Especially you! I attacked you in the bathroom!

Past Videm: Uh…?

Cheryl: You’re acting, aren’t you?

[Cheryl grins once again.]

Cheryl: You were so afraid you decided to come up with a way to get out!

Past Videm: I’m serious! We don’t know who you are!

Cheryl: We’ll just see about that!

[Cheryl waves her hand at Past Videm and Past Spicy, who are more scared than frustrated. A beam shoots out, and it scans the two.]

Cheryl: Wait—but, you look just like them!

Past Videm: We told you, we don’t know who you are!

Cheryl: Impossible! I was the attendant on your plane ride here!

Past Spicy: We didn’t take a plane here.

Cheryl: Yes, you did! Stop lying. Who are you really, then?

Past Videm: Well, I’m Videm, and this is Spicy.

Cheryl: No, that’s not possible. Unless—

[Cheryl widens her eyes.]

Cheryl: Oh no—no, no, no! He’s gone too far with it!

[Cheryl walks around in circles, panicking.]

Videm: Um… who’s this he?—

[Cheryl grabs Videm, glaring at him with fierce, crimson eyes.]

Cheryl: WHATEVER YOU DO! DON’T TAKE TO HIS PLANS!

Past Videm: Augh!

[Past Videm pushes Cheryl off, who stumbles onto the floor.]

Past Videm: Look, lady. We already know something’s up with this mansion, you don’t have to rattle us like that!

Cheryl: Fools, fools, fools. Then what are you doing out here, hm? Looking for a tablet?

Past Videm: What? No! We just came to investigate!

Cheryl: You’re not one of those twin minions that the villain makes, are you?

Past Spicy: N—No, why would we?

Cheryl: How do I know you’re not lying—

Past Videm: Because you scanned us, apparently, and it doesn’t say so, does it?

[Cheryl looks down at the ground, then backs up with her eyebrows down.]

Cheryl: Just be warned, there’s a chain of events that will occur sooner than you think.

[Cheryl gets up, and disappears, as does the barrier.]

Past Videm: *sigh* That was odd…

Past Spicy: We should head back and tell the others—

[Past Videm grabs Past Spicy by the hand before they could run off.]

Past Videm: No! Don’t. We have to keep this between us.

Past Spicy: But what’s the point? There’s nothing to hide!

Past Videm: Look, if we tell the others, they’re going to start freaking out. Better yet, they’re gonna laugh at us for telling them the “fake” story.

[Past Spicy looks down at Past Videm’s arm, then back at him.]

Past Spicy: Alright, just you and me.


Episode 15 - Happiness Shadowed by Doubt

[Dawn's lights pierces through the shiny window. The mansion is once again in its early morning routine, but it is different, somehow. Past Vince wanders through the mansion, looking at the different portraits. He feels the railings of the stairs. It is warm, almost as if someone were there recently.]

Dave: H… Hello?

Past Vince: Hi! :D

Dave: What are you doing here?

Past Vince: I’m wandering around because I’m bored.

Dave: Yeah, this mansion… it doesn’t offer much. I mean, well, besides its… unusual oddities.

Past Vince: Hmm… what type of oddities? :D

Dave: I shouldn’t tell you, but… I have to get this off my chest.

Past Vince: You have a chest? Does it hold gold and buried treasure?

Dave: N—No, but I bet this mansion does.

[Dave points to the little, hidden hatchet in the ground.]

Dave: Y—You see that? I saw Morris go down in that very bunker late at night… I don’t know what he does in there, but… Dale always tells me not to go there…

Past Vince: What? Morris owns a bunk bed? Wow… he’s so amazing!

Dave: Look, listen, Vince… I fear the day Morris reveals his plans. I guess, though, I picked the right person to talk to since you won’t freak out or get too curious so much.

Past Vince: Oh, okay. Do you want me to tell everyone? :D

Dave: No! That’s the opposite of what I wanted, and probably what Morris had planned. Just keep this between you and me.

Past Vince: Oh, okay. I’ll keep your secret.

[The alarm sounds all around the mansion, waking everyone up from their slumber.]

Dave: I—I’ve gotta go. Just remember, don’t trust Morris.

Past Vince: Why? He has a bunk bed and—

[Dave quickly scatters before he could respond.]

Vince: Rude.

~The present group~

Dr. Marv: The dimension warp hole seems to have gotten smaller than it was the first time we went through…

Videm: What does that mean?

Vince: It means it shrunk, duh.

Jeffrey: Whose portal are we going to next?

Isabelle: Looks like that's our answer!

[Isabelle points to the flashing white light, and they all head through it to find themselves in front of some sort of amusement park.]

Vince: What the heck, where are we? ;o

Sara: Oh my god, it’s an amusement park! Finally, something fun to do!

Vince: Happy Land? ;o

Syrz: What is an amusement park?

Alice: It’s a place where you go on rides, eat food, have fun, and play for prizes.

Videm: Eh, I just ate. I don’t like going on rides.

Syrz: Would someone accompany me on a ride?

Vince: Omar.

Jeffrey: Speaking of, where is he?

Dr. Marv: I noticed Minami was not in sight either… they must’ve somehow escaped.

Videm: They wouldn’t have left without us.

Sara: Like, oh my god! I need to go on the love-ride to find my destined partner! *runs off*

Catalina: Syrz, I’ll go on a ride with you.

Syrz: Thank you, Catalina.

Alice: May I join you two?

Catalina: Of course!

Abby: Videm? Wanna go?

Videm: Huh? Oh, right! Sure.

Kitten: You guys aren’t going without me, right!?

Abby: You can come on the ride with us.

[Abby, Videm, and Kitten go onto the love-ride.]

Jeffrey: Omg! Madison, let’s go to those rides!

[Jeffrey points to some smaller roller coasters and the closest thing to thrill rides.]

Madison: That sounds lovely.

[Jeffrey and Madison head on their way.]

Vince: What am I supposed to do then? I’ll go eat some donuts and go to the go-karts.

[Spicy silently walks over to a funnel cake store and buys some funnel cake.  They sit on a bench and eat the plate of funnel cake.]

~Abby, Videm, and Kitten~

Abby: So…

Videm: So…

[The three sit in silence.]

Abby: So, how are you and Dr. Marv?

Videm: Well… he seems to just not care about me after Isabelle came along.

Abby: O—Oh…

Kitten: Where’s this ride taking us?

[The boat rocks a little while heading down the river. The cave is warm, but the water emits cold fog around them.]

Videm: Abby… I want to confess.

Abby: Hm?

Videm: Before you came along, I… kind of… well…

Abby: Come on, you can tell me. Besides, you don’t care about secrets being revealed.

Videm: I know, but—

[Videm looks down at the water, then back at Abby.]

Videm: Before you came, I had feelings for Catalina…

[Abby widens her eyes, and so does Kitten.]

Abby: I’m… sure you didn’t mean it that way.

Videm: But, of course I did.

Kitten: But why do you like her?

Videm: I don’t know, I don’t feel the way I do with Abby anymore—

Abby: What?

[Suddenly, there is silence.]

Kitten: Well, then…

Videm: There’s just some sort of magnetic force between Catalin—

Abby: Just—be quiet. I don’t want to hear it anymore.

[Videm shuts up as the boat takes them further into the ride, as darkness engulfs them with only crimson-red LED's hanging above. Kitten starts breathing heavily.]

Kitten: Do you feel that?

Abby: Feel what?

Kitten: I feel something in my body, I don’t know how to explain it, but it doesn’t feel right…

Videm: Are you sick?

Kitten: It’s not that, it’s just—something doesn’t feel right…

[Kitten looks around, then down at the water. She glances at her reflection, but it isn't her; instead, it is a lady wearing a crimson red dress with fierce red eyes. Kitten screams, jumping back, which causes the boat to rock and small waves to form around them.]

Videm: Careful! I almost fell to death!

Abby: What is it!?

Kitten: I saw her!

[Videm looks down at where Kitten is pointing, but nothing is there.]

Videm: You’re hallucinating.

Kitten: I swear, she’s real. Look, I hear her in my dreams and nightmares. And—one time I saw the picture of you and Abby being burned!

[Abby and Videm look at Kitten.]

Abby: Kitten, calm down…

Kitten: No!—I’m worried about you guys… I don’t know what I’d do without the both of you…

[Videm sighs, looking down.]

Videm: Kitten… I think you're the only one who's holding Abby and me together… we've always been worried about you too.

[Videm looks up.]

Videm: From now on, we shouldn’t keep secrets from each other…

[Videm looks at Abby, who looks away.]

Videm: Just like back then.

[Abby slowly turns, then sighs.]

Abby: Well, I’m glad you’ve said your misdeeds, but I’m still heartbroken…

[Abby is holding back tears. Videm sighs once again, biting his lips.]

Videm: We’re still friends… right?

Abby: … yes, we will always be friends.

[Videm and Abby hug, as they arrive at the end of the ride.]

~Catalina, Syrz, Alice~

Catalina: We should take Syrz on an extreme ride for her first ride.

Alice: Extreme? Why don’t we go on the merry-go-round?

Catalina: That’s so lame!  She deserves something epic for her first ride.

Alice: Hmm… okay. Let’s go over there, I think there are some extreme rides in that direction.

[After searching the park, to Catalina’s dismay, there is only one semi-extreme ride.]

Catalina: I guess we have to go on this one…

Alice: What’s the point of extreme rides if they just make you want to puke?

Catalina: The thrill of that feeling, that’s the point of them!

Syrz: Let’s go on this one!

[Syrz points to the only semi-extreme ride.]

Catalina: Okay, let’s go.

Alice: I’m both excited and scared…

[The three stand in the queue area for the ride, and then enter the ride.]

~Sara~

Sara: I’m all alone, but I might find my destined partner.

[Sara walks in the direction of the love-ride.]

Sara: Ew! I’m the only one here! Oh well, time to find my destined partner.

[She  gets into the ride and sits in a boat.]

Sara: Ew! It’s so uncomfortable…

[Lights appear and flash, love music plays in the background, and the heart-shaped boat starts to move.]

Sara: Oh gosh, it’s starting!!!!!

[She looks around as TV screens start turning on, showing a huge red heart in the middle, atop of a pink background.]

Sara: Ew, too much red. Needs more pink.

[The TV screen flips and shows Sara in the love boat.]

Sara: Ew! That girl is so ugly, dressing like me! Imposter[g]!—oh wait, that’s me…

[Speakers appear and someone starts talking.]

Announcer: Hello! Today, we will find the destined partner of this fellow young lady!

[Cheering noises blare from the speakers.]

Sara: Ew! Just hurry up and tell me my destined partner!

Announcer: Hush, do not rush it, young lady! Now, I’m going to ask you a series of questions, answer honestly, and we will count up your score to find your destined partner! Question 1!

[The TV screen flips to show Demi Lovato rolling around half-naked in a bed.]

Announcer: Oh god! Wrong screen, change it, change it!!!

[The TV screen flips again and shows a pink screen with a question and answers.]

Announcer: Question 1. What would you want your destined partner to give you as a gift on your anniversary? A. Food, B. A Necklace, C. Flowers, or D. Money.

Sara: I want E. Adam Levine!

Announcer: That is not a valid answer. Please choose A, B, C, or D.

Sara: Fine, I would want C.

Announcer: Very good. Now, Question 2!

[The TV screen flips to another page with a question and four answers.]

Announcer: Onto Question 2. Out of everyone you know in your life, who is the most important to you? A. Your friends, B. Your parents, C. Your grandparents, D. Hobos on the street.

Sara: Um… B.

Announcer: Hmm… okay, okay. Three more questions left. So, onto Question 3!

[The TV screen flips to another page with a question and four answers.]

Announcer: Ready or not, here comes Question 3. How long would you like to know your boyfriend/girlfriend before marriage? A. A few days, B. A few months, C. A few years, D. A few eons.

Sara: Hmm, this one is pretty hard. I would go with B.
Announcer: Seriously?- I mean, perfect answer. Now, onto Question 4.

[The TV screen flips to another page with a question and four answers.]

Announcer: Question 4, here we go! Who would you want to introduce your boyfriend/girlfriend to first? A. Your parents, B. Your friends, C. Your grandparents, D. The housecat.

Sara: I would do B obviously! D would be a close second for me though.- Wait, I’m allergic to cats.

Announcer: Anyways, we have one question left!

[The TV screen flips to another page with a bold FINAL QUESTION and four answers.]

Announcer: Here is your fifth and final question! How would you confess your love to your crush? A. Up-close and personal, B. On the phone, C. In a letter, D. Get someone to confess for you, like a hobo or the housecat.

Sara: What the even heck is D?

Announcer: D? Strange answer but-

Sara: No! That’s not my answer. My answer is A.

Announcer: Z? Sorry, that is not a valid answer.

Sara: I said A! Are you deaf or something?

Announcer: 723423?

Sara: A!!!!!!!!

Announcer: Ohhhhh… A… Antelope?

Sara: *sighs* Just go with B.

Announcer: B? Okay. I will now count up your results.

Sara: Ew, finally!

Announcer: Now, your result will show up on the TV screen. Your destined partner is…

[The TV screens go dark and all of the lights turn off as a drumroll sound is heard.]

Announcer: Your destined partner is…

Sara: Hurry up and stop the stupid drumroll!

[The drumroll stops and the lights start flashing again. On the TV screen, the person Sara sees is….]

Announcer: Graham Oliver!

Sara: What the…

[As Sara stares at the screen, the love-boat drifts into light, and Sara is done with the love-ride.]

~Jeffrey and Madison~

Jeffrey: Ooh, the swinging ship of terror!

Madison: One of my fave rides!

[They get in line and ride it.]

Madison: Omg! The Dark Forest coaster!

Jeffrey: That looks cool.

[They ride it, then continue going around excited about almost every ride.]

Jeffrey: I’m having a lot of fun with you…

Madison: Same.

[They lean in and then kiss each other, and then they continue riding a bunch of rides.]

~Spicy~

[Spicy sits alone, thinking to themselves.  A young adult wearing a dark green jacket, with the hood up so as to obscure his face, walks toward the bench Spicy is sitting on.  He sits next to Spicy.]

Guy: For being in a Happy Land, you sure don’t seem very happy.

Spicy: It’s no big deal.

Guy: Really?  What are you doing here, if you don’t mind me asking?

Spicy: It’s none of your business.

Guy: What?  Can’t a guy flirt around here?

Spicy: That’s what you call flirting?

Guy: What a tough crowd…

Spicy: Why are you bugging me?

[The guy shrugs.]

Guy: You seemed lonely.

Spicy: I’m alone for a reason, so you can go away now.

Guy: Come on a ride with me, please.

Spicy: Why?

Guy: Just come on.  I want to talk to you.

Spicy: Fine, which ride?

Guy: The Tunnel of Wuv.

Spicy: …

Guy: C’mon…

[Spicy reluctantly follows the guy.  The two enter the Tunnel of Wuv.  They take a seat by each other, and the ride shoves off into the tunnel.]

Spicy: So, what do you want from me?

Guy: So assertive…

Spicy: Just answer the question.

Guy: I don’t want much, I just wanted to talk to you in private.

Spicy: You’re avoiding the question.

Guy: Fine, fine… are you Spicy?

Spicy: Yeah, how’d you know my name?

Guy: I know many things about you.

Spicy: Hey, why don’t you tell me who you are?

Guy: Who I am?

Spicy: Yeah… who are you?

[The guy takes off his hood, revealing white hair accompanied by a masquerade mask covering half of his face.  He smiles.]

Mysq: My name is Mysq.  It’s nice to meet you.

Spicy: Mysq?  How do you spell that?

Mysq: M-Y—wait, that’s not important.  I was sent here to kill you, but after seeing what happened at the mansion, I couldn’t bring myself to do it.  Therefore, I’m going to stick with your group until I’m ready to kill you.

Spicy: … and why did you tell me that?

Mysq: Because I trust you can handle the truth.

Spicy: … okay then.

Mysq: So, I want you to introduce me to everyone.

Spicy: We’re not friends, stop acting like we are.

Mysq: Rude.  Fine, I’ll introduce myself to them…

~Vince~

Vince: I’m so bored… I thought eating donuts would take my mind off things, but it doesn’t.

[Vince sits at a table while eating mini-donuts, popcorn, and cotton candy.]

Vince: This food is so good, but it’s too much for me to finish ._.

[Vince stares at the sky and the variety of rides.]

Vince: I wish I could be talking to someone right now…

Vince: I feel like my villain will appear here. This place doesn’t seem to fit with anyone else.

[Vince thinks amongst himself.]

Vince: Hmm… I think I’ll go on a ride and tell the others to meet at the restaurant nearby…

[Vince heads off to go on a ride.]

Announcer: AND NOW WE’RE BACK TO WORLD DANGERS

[The group meets up at the local restaurant.]

Vince: So, what did everyone do?

Catalina: Syrz, Alice and I tried all of the rides.  They were all boring.

Alice: Excuse me? Those rides were amazing. I especially loved Riding Through France.

Syrz: We also tried some of this place’s food… it tastes better than the mansion’s cooking.

Madison: Jeffrey and I went on a bunch of different rides and had so much fun.

Sara: Ew! I went on the love-ride! I found my destined partner. Most awkward five minutes of my life.

Vince: A—A love ride?

Abby: Well, we did the opposite of what a love-ride was supposed to do…

Jeffrey: What’s that supposed to mean?

Kitten: It means they broke up, dumbo.

Jeffrey: Well, sorry.

[Catalina notices Mysq.]

Catalina: Who is this, Spicy?

Videm: He looks like Gelander.

Spicy: …

Mysq: My name is Mysq.  I’m Spicy’s b—

Spicy: Don’t.

Mysq: I’m an old friend of theirs.

Vince: Ooh, romance…

Videm: Really, now? How old is this relationship in terms of years?

Mysq: Ten years.

Jeffrey: What? That’s older than this group, how is that even possible?

Mysq: Spicy doesn’t like to talk about me.  (childish voice) They're a big meanie.

Vince: But, they would’ve been eight when they met you…

Mysq: Yeah, of course.  Are you confused?

Videm: Guys, what’s that over yonder? Hehe, I’ve always wanted to say "over yonder”. Heh.

Vince: I’ll go order everyone something, and maybe after we eat we can go to the bumper-karts. :D

Jeffrey: YAY! I LOVE BUMPER CARS! I’M GONNA KILL YOU ALL.

Vince: Calm down… o_o

Mysq: I’m just warning you, Spicy-poo, I’m pretty good at bumper-karts.

Spicy: I hope you die in a hole.

Vince: Lol, I remember when you said that more often.

Spicy: I remember when you didn’t speak at all, when you were a baby.  Such sweet melancholic times.

[Vince glares at Spicy as he and Videm go to the Cashier and order everyone food.]

Cashier: Hello. What can I get you?

Vince: Oh, hi—you look familiar… do I know you?

Cashier: Oh, no, I just get that often.

Vince: Oh, okay. *orders*

Cashier: That will be $35.00.

Vince: Do you have thirty-five dollars?

Videm: I only have a million dollars, sorry.

Vince: Darn it. Oh well. *pays*

Cashier: Thank you. Here’s your change. *gives one cent* I will bring your food to your table.

Vince: Okay. Thank you.

Videm: Wait a second—you didn’t give us the full change!

Cashier: Oh, sorry. Here you go *gives one more cent*

Videm: Thank you.

[Vince and Videm go back to the table.]

~Meanwhile, back at the mansion~

[Past Videm goes to visit Past Abby, but on his way, he bumps into Past Kitten.]

Past Kitten: Ow—watch where you’re going, idiot.

Past Videm: Hmph.

[Past Videm heads back to walking towards Past Abby's room. He takes a deep breath, then knocks. The door opens, revealing Past Abby.]

Past Abby: Hello?

Past Videm: Um… hi…

Past Abby: Hi Videm. Come in, come in.

[Past Videm walks into the room, meeting eye contact with Past Abby. She sees the nervousness in his eyes.]

Past Abby: Do you need something?

Past Videm: Yes, well… remember the time I gave you that red heart crystal… well, I just wanted to say… I have feelings for you…

[She smiles, and so does he. However, she could still see the nervousness in his eyes.]

Past Videm: So, do you want to, I don’t know…

Past Abby: I do :)

[They hug it out, then kiss.]

~Meanwhile with the present group~

~Spicy and Mysq~

Spicy: Why are you sitting by me…?

Mysq: Why are you such a butt?

Spicy: Why are you so annoying?

Mysq: Why do you keep posing ‘why’ questions?

Spicy: Why are you?

Mysq: Touche.

Spicy: Just eat.

[After Mysq takes a bite.]

Mysq: This is delicious.  What is this, again?  Some kind of burger?

Spicy: I think it’s a guacamole bacon burger.

Mysq: Guacamole, bacon, and the burger essentials!?  The world has finally been unified.

Spicy: People are staring, stop being so weird.

~Vince, Alice, Syrz, and Sara~

Vince: Ooh, I love these burgers and fries :D

Alice: So, when are we going to bumper karts?

Syrz: By the way, what are bumper karts?

Alice: In bumper karts, your goal is to bump into other people. It’s very simple.

Sara: Ew! I hate tomatoes!

Vince: Well, just take the tomatoes out, that’s what I did.

Sara: Ew! The tomato juice will go all over the burger!

Alice: Just eat it…

Sara: Fine.

[Everyone finishes their food and heads to the Bumper karts.]

Vince: Yay! Let’s go!

[The bumper kart game commences, and so the group takes off in their karts.]

[Jeffrey rams his kart into Videm, who immediately flies off his kart and into a nearby bush.]

Jeffrey: AHAHAHA!

Videm: OW! I… think you broke a few of my DNA…

Jeffrey: Who’s NEXT!—

[Suddenly, Scarlett bumps into Jeffrey.]

Scarlett: You’re not the ONLY insane person here! AHAHAHA!

Vince: I’m coming for you, Spicy-poo!

Mysq: So am I, Spicy-poo~!

[Vince and Mysq go toward Spicy, who bumps into Syrz.]

Syrz: AHH THE WORLD IS SHAKING!

[Syrz bumps into Catalina.]

Catalina: Eek~!

[Alice bumps into Syrz and Catalina.]

Alice: Take that!

Syrz: I CAN’T CONTROL!

Alice: Hold down the pedal with your foot.

[She does that and hits Alice.]

Alice: Ow!

[Sara bumps into Syrz.]

Sara: Ha!

[Mysq starts to chase Spicy with his bumper kart, but Spicy turns around and starts to chase Mysq, who turns around and hits Sam.]

Sam: Ow.

[Vince bumps into Sara.]

Sara: Ew! What the heck!

[Meanwhile, Jeffrey and Scarlett are in the corner, bumping into each other.]

Jeffrey: I WILL GET YOU OUT OF THE KART!

Scarlett: NOT IF I KILL YOU FIRST—

Announcer: Time’s up. Everyone please leave your carts.

Jeffrey: Darnit, ugh.

[Jeffrey and Scarlett still glare at each other while walking back to the exit.]

Vince: Well, what now? Wanna go again or do something else?

Videm: Um… anyone else notice that thing in the sky?

[They look up, seeing a little rift.]

Dr. Marv: That’s it! Our escape! Through the unstable dimension rifts.

Videm: But how are we going to get there?

[Suddenly, Dr. Marv pulls out his portal gun, then shoots a blue portal at the rift.]

Jeffrey: Whoa gurl, that’s amazing.

Dr. Marv: Let’s just hope I shot at the rift.

Videm: What?—

[Dr. Marv shoots the orange portal on the ground, but there is just darkness on the other side.]

Isabelle: Wait a s—

[Suddenly, the orange portal starts sucking everything in.]

Isabelle: DR. MARV! YOU SHOT AT THE MOON!

[The group runs, as everything is slowly pulled into the portal. Dr. Marv tries to hold back, but his portal gun is ripped from his hands, falling through the portal.]

Videm: Great, now what!?

Dr. Marv: JUST GO!

[The group obeys and splits up.]

[Videm and Vince head towards the ferris wheel.]

Videm: How’d you end up with me again?!

Vince: Dang it, we always end up together!

Videm: I guess that’s the power of V—LOOK OUT!

[A concrete blockade is rapidly flying towards them, but luckily they duck in time.]

Videm: Whew, that was a cl—[A pot sus[h]

Vince: What the heck?!

Videm: If we can get to the ferris wheel, we might be able to reach the rift.

Vince: But what about the others?

Videm: We’ll get them later… hopefully…

[They run towards the ferris wheel, then hop onto the ride.]

Videm: Wait, who’s going to activate—

[Suddenly, the key to the ride magically clicks, and the ferris wheel starts rolling.]

Videm: Nevermind, then…

[Spicy runs toward the funnel cake stand, Mysq following.]

Spicy: Why are you following me!?

Mysq: Why are you detesting!?

Spicy: Let’s not start this again, just hurry up.

[The two reach the funnel cake stand, and get inside of it.]

Mysq: Why are we in here!?  This isn’t safe.

Spicy: You were the one who tagged along, don’t complain.

Mysq: Meanie…

[The two grab some of the funnel cake lying around.]

Spicy: Why are we doing this?

Mysq: RPG elements.  This is why.

Spicy: …

Mysq: It heals all of our HP, okay?

Spicy: …

Mysq: Stop being silent!

[The two leave the funnel cake stand, and start running for the photo booth.]

Spicy: Why are we running here?

Mysq: I need to take a picture with you!

Spicy: Seriously!?

[The two jump into the booth and they take a quick picture, Mysq smiling and Spicy sitting in discontent.  The photo booth starts to lift off of the ground.  Mysq grabs Spicy and jumps out of the photo booth, Mysq breaking Spicy’s fall.]

Mysq: Ow…

Spicy: What the heck…?  Let go of me.

Mysq: You’re welcome.

[They see the photo booth remnants fly into the portal.]

~Alice, Catalina, and Syrz~

Catalina: Where are we going!?

Alice: I have no idea! Oh hey look, it’s the ride we were on earlier!

Syrz: Let’s get to safety on that ride!

Catalina: Alright!

Alice: Oh, okay…

~Jeffrey and Madison~

Jeffrey: Over here!

Madison: Where?

Jeffrey: We can hide in the swinging ship of terror.

[They both go into it and the ship starts rocking really really fast.]

Jeffrey and Madison: AHHHHH!!

[Jeffrey starts puking, while Madison tries to hold it in, then they both get thrown out, landing on a food truck’s awning, bouncing off.]

Jeffrey: Are you OK!?

Madison: Yeah…we can find shelter inside this truck.

[They run inside the food truck.]

Jeffrey: I think we are safe in here for now.

Madison: I hope…

[Madison hugs Jeffrey tightly, scared.]

~Vince and Videm~

Videm: I can see everyone from up here! Look, there’s that one guy and Spicy! Jeffrey and Madison are hiding in that food truck! Abby and Kitten are running away from the portal, and onto that plushy rollercoaster!

Vince: I have to cook for the princess!

Videm: What!?

Vince: I HAVE TO COOK FOR THE PRINCES—

Videm: SHUSH! Look, we’re getting to the rift!

Vince: I ONLY GOT TWO HAPPY FACES WHAT THE HECK

Videm: VINCE STOP PLAYING ON YOUR THING AND FOCUS ON THIS TASK IN HAND!

Vince: Yay I have to make flowers! <3

[Videm grunts, then heads up onto the roof of their ferris wheel cart. He looks into the rift, which is trippy in all its ways.]

Videm: I’m getting closer, just need to—

[Videm suddenly trips, falling off. He suddenly screams, grasping onto the cart’s roof.]

Vince: Are you okay?!

Videm: AENOSEGNSOOI!

Vince: I’ll take that as a yes. *goes back to playing on DS*

[Videm feels his arms going numb from fear, as he tries not to look down. He does so anyway, gasping and gripping onto the cart even harder. Luckily, he manages to bring himself onto the roof. He gasps for breath.]

Vince: Are you okay?

Videm: Vince, do you feel the ferris wheel going faster?!

[The ferris wheel is indeed going faster than its original speed.]

Vince: Oh god, what’s going on?!

Videm: Wait, who's that lady!?

[A lady with a crimson dress and fierce red eyes is mashing the buttons for the ferris wheel control. She suddenly disappears as the ferris wheel exponentially speeds up.]

Vince: EEK! Who was that lady?!

Videm: I don’t know!

[Videm heads back into the cart, gripping on, as the ferris wheel is nearly going 20 miles per hour.]

Videm: HOLD ON TIGHT! I THINK THIS RIDE IS GOING TO DISMANTLE ITSELF—

[Just as he says that, the ferris wheel throws itself off its base, and begins to roll around.]

Videm: AAAAAAUUUUGGGGGHHHHHHHHH!

Vince: I HAVEN’T FINISHED MAKING FLOWERS FOR THE PRINCESS!!!!! *DS flies off ferris wheel*

Videm: THANK YOU!

~Mysq and Spicy~

Spicy: What the heck!?

Mysq: Get out of the way!

[Mysq pushes Spicy away from the ferris wheel, and he gets hit in the head with a DS.]

Mysq: What the…?  Where did that come from?

DS: BOBBY… CINNAMON

Mysq: AHHHH!

[Mysq steps on the DS in fear, crushing it.]

Videm (in the distance): THANK YOU!

Mysq: Ow… my head hurts…

[Mysq eats the funnel cake.]

Mysq (in an announcer voice): Mysq’s HP has been fully healed!

[Spicy facepalms.]

[Abby and Kitten look at the ferris wheel from a good distance.]

Abby: Oh my…

Kitten: Holy shitting motherfucking hole…

Abby: …

Kitten: What? I don’t think before I speak.

Abby: Yeah, yeah, I know you.

[Jeffrey and Madison look outside the window.]

Madison: Is that the…

Jeffrey: Ferris Wheel…

Madison: Is that Vince and Videm on it!?

Jeffrey: Oh god…

[Jeffrey goes back to the floor.]

Madison: I hope they are alright…

[Madison cowers on the floor along with Jeffrey.]

~Videm and Vince~

Videm: We’re getting there again!

[Videm grabs Vince, then steps onto the cart roof again.]

Videm: Hold on tight, we’re going in!—don’t you dare say that’s what she said.

[Videm and Vince stance, then quickly jump, reaching for the rift. They fail and begin falling to their doom.]

Videm: THIS WAS A HORRIBLE IDEA!—

Announcer: AND NOW WE’RE BACK TO WORLD DANGERS

Videm: AAAAHHH!! WHY DID YOU LET ME DO THIS!?

Vince: YOU DID THIS YOURSELF—

[Suddenly, time freezes, and everything is silent. A figure then appears, hovering over the scene. It is Vince’s friend, Rhys. Everyone but the two are frozen.]

Rhys: Hi!

Vince: Um… Rhys? What are you doing here?

Rhys: Isn’t it clear? I’m your villain.

Vince: Wait… what?! How’d you get here?

Rhys: I’ve been here the whole time. I was secretly watching your group of “online friends” going through this weird place.

Vince: Wait, how were you watching me? Are you a stalker Rhys?

Rhys: Never mind that!

Vince: …

Rhys: You seem to think you know everything, when in reality you don’t know anything. Not even about yourself. You have to ask other people to help you decide something for you because you’re so indecisive.

[Vince stares at Rhys in disbelief.]

Rhys: Hmm… so this is your place… Happy Land?

Vince: Um… yeah I guess…

Rhys: Hmph. Well I guess it’s all because people see you as a happy go-lucky person, but I know secretly that you feel confused, ignored, and you don’t know where to go with your life.

Vince: How would you know that?

Rhys: I know all of this. You tell me all of this.

Vince: Oh… right…

Rhys: You probably feel so confused right now, you don’t know why this is even your place, and you’re also probably thinking of love, and that one special crush you have.

Vince: Please don’t say anything about that here.

Rhys: What? No one’s even listening to us. They won’t care if I tell them just a little small tid-bit.

Vince: Just… don’t say anything.

Rhys: Hmph. Well you’re no fun at all, you little bitch.

Vince: Hey, I’m not a female dog. I am a human being.

[Rhys rolls his eyes as he stares at Vince.]

Rhys: Still. You’re probably so confused about your life. I bet you couldn’t even answer questions about yourself. In all this happiness, there is sadness, confusion, and doubt.

Vince: No doubt.

Rhys: Don’t make Gwen Stefani puns with me.

[Rhys snaps his fingers, then Vince appears in a pitch-black maze with a bunch of mirrors. Rhys stands beside him.]

Vince: Why am I here?

Rhys: Because you feel confused about yourself. You always stare at mirrors thinking, why? You always think about your crush as you stare at yourself.

[Rhys snaps his fingers once again, then Vince widens his eyes at what is in the reflection: his crush.]

Rhys: But who knew, your crush… was a guy?

Vince: …

Rhys: Speechless, huh? You’re probably thinking of your crush and the people who never believed or trusted in you—

[Right at that moment, Vince turns and hits Rhys in the face.]

Rhys: Ow! You bitch!

[Vince stares right into Rhys’ eyes, but the image of Rhys is flickering and changing into someone completely different.]

Jennifer: Ow! That hurt!

Vince: What the—

[Suddenly Vince’s old Piano Teacher hits Vince in the stomach, and he appears on a rollercoaster.]

Vince: Where am I?—what the heck?! Jennifer?!

Jennifer: Hi, Vincent. Or should I call you by the name you prefer, Vince?

Vince: How do you know my nickname?!

Jennifer: *smirks* You always know what to say, but not what to do. You always call it quits on something once it’s quote unquote, ‘boring for you,’ just like how you stopped practicing on the piano, and my lessons never mattered to you anymore. You probably also want to call it quits on these types of roller coasters because they’re too scary for you.

Vince: …

Jennifer: Hmph. You always make me laugh, but that’s all you do. Make people laugh and smile. You always seem to want to feel empathy for others and yourself.

[The roller coaster goes in a loop, then takes a sharp turn, which makes Vince scream and look in pain.]

Jennifer: Oh don’t worry, all your pain and suffering will be over soon, and you’ll just forget all about it, or try to make other people forget about it all.

[Jennifer finishes talking as the roller coaster stops.]

Vince: Phew.

[As Vince sighs, he disappears and reappears in an obstacle course. In front of him is his idol: Gwen Stefani.]

Gwen Stefani: Hi there!

Vince: What the heck is going on?

Gwen Stefani: Can’t you tell? I’m here to race you, but you probably will give up halfway through, because that’s all you do. You give up and you call it quits all the time. You also never seem up for the challenge and you’d rather give up than lose badly.

Vince: I don’t just give up that easily.

Gwen Stefani: Oh is that right? If there’s ever an obstacle in your way, you either try passing it or just leaving it without harm.

Vince: …

Gwen Stefani: Whatever, let’s just do this!

[A whistle blows and Gwen Stefani immediately rushes through the first obstacle, which are huge jumps.]

Vince: Eek!

Gwen Stefani: You’re such a slug! Hurry up, snail!

[He  tries to follow her, but she is far ahead of him.]

Gwen Stefani: Once a snail, always a snail!

Vince: Hey, that’s rude!

Gwen Stefani: *smirks*

[He runs ahead of her in a straight hallway, but she looks furious.]

Gwen Stefani: Hey! No one passes me!

[She grabs onto him, which makes him trip and fall.]

Vince: EEK!

[He kicks her in the face, then she falls from the top of the obstacle course and lands in the ball pit as he watches from afar.]

Vince: Woops. Uh…

[Vince looks down at where Gwen Stefani fell, but instead, he sees his crush.]

Vince’s Crush: Help me!!!

Vince: Should I?…

[Vince looks at his crush who is rolling around in the ball pit and jumps down into the ball pit.]

Vince’s Crush: Thanks Vince. *smiles and pushes Vince into the ball pit*

Vince: Eeek!

[Vince falls into the abyss of plastic balls and suddenly blacks out.]

[Vince wakes up in the love-ride, sitting in the heart-shaped boat.]

Vince: What the… how did I get here?

[He looks around, and suddenly, the lights flashes and turns on.]

Finn: Hi, Vince.

Vince: Finn?

Finn: Yeah, it’s me, who else did you expect to see? Your mother? I know how you feel about me. You have a crush on me. Every conversation we have, you try to feel happy about it. You’re also very envious of Rhys because I always seem to talk with him. You even freaked out when I said goodbye to him, rather than you.

Vince: …

Finn: What? You look so confused, yet scared. Everything is coming out so soon for you, isn’t it? You couldn’t even tell anyone about me other than Spicy, Videm, Rhys, Natasha, and Amanda. You also think I’m not interested in you what so-ever. It’s weird, because you don’t even seem to know your own sexuality.

Vince: Just… stop, please…

Finn: Is this too hard for you to take-in? You seem to just want to be closer to me because you’re afraid of being alone and having no one in your future. You’re a mess.

Vince: Please just stop! What did I do to deserve all of this?

[Finn smirks and disappears as the love-ride is ending. Vince covers his eyes as the light of the outside world comes into view.]

Vince: Why…

[Vince looks down as a tear falls from one eye, dripping onto the shoe.]

???: Hey! Over here!

[He stands up from the love-ride and appears back from where he saw Rhys.]

Vince: What the…

???: Stop crying, you big baby!

[Vince looks up, seeing his old stuffie Smiley: a yellow body with its hands and legs connected to it, and eyes and a huge smile, but something is different: the eyes are glowing red.]

Smiley: Hi, Vince!

Vince: How’d you get here? Where did Finn and all of the others go?

Smiley: Can’t you tell? I’m your true villain. I just took the form of all those other people in your life. The people you either left, gave up on, lied to, or idolized. I was something important to you because you kept me in your bed. You’re such a kid. You still sleep with stuffies? You still play games made for six-year-olds? You still play tag and other games Kindergarteners play?

Vince: Well… those are just things that comfort me.

Smiley: Hmph. All I ever did was just sit on your bed all day smiling at everything. You loved all of your other ones more, but your mom got rid of all of them.

Vince: Well, I still feel like a kid, so I don’t want to just change so suddenly.

Smiley: Oh right, that word. Change. You hate change. You don’t want to be losing your friends for years to come, you dislike moving, and you hate leaving cherished memories behind. That’s why you never left Skype when everyone moved to other uses of calls and chats. You seem to also want to have love, so you have someone to lean on, someone to trust. Well, I never had anyone, so who knows if you’ll have someone who cares for you.

Vince: …

Smiley: Speechless, are ‘ya? Hmph. You probably just want to curl up into a ball and die—

[At that moment, Vince runs to Smiley and hugs him tight.]

Vince: You’re right about all of this. There isn’t one lie you’ve told. This is all me. I just want someone to lean on, someone to trust, I don’t like change, and I’m such a kid.

[Smiley’s smile widens. A spirit leaves Smiley’s body and disappears as Vince hugs his beloved stuffie.]

Vince: I just want all of this to be over now…

[Vince looks up, and everyone is now thawed, looking around confused.]

Videm: —AAAAHH, wait, why are we on the ground? Are we dead and stuck in a landslide? Is this reality?

Mysq: My head still hurts…

Alice: So it’s all over now. We can finally leave, but, what exactly happened?

Videm: All I remember was a really weird stuffed animal and a flashy woman.

Sara: Ew! I’m satisfied, Vince defeated his villain, in a way, and I know my destined partner. We can leave now.

Dr. Marv: But how do we leave?

[But their answers are quickly solved by everything disappearing around them, then reforming into an endless pit of darkness.]

Outro

[Vince lies on a couch in the mansion and watches the Voice.]

Vince: Go Shakira! I’m starting to get really interested in the Voice. Wait- who’s that lady?

[Vince stares at the screen as a strange lady appears on stage, singing a song called, “Hollaback Girl.”.]

Vince: Who is she?

Carson Daly (on TV): That was Gwen Stefani and Pharrell Williams performing Hollaback Girl!

Vince: Who’s Gwen Stefani?


Episode 16 - Past Rivalries

[Two people shuffle against the counter in the pitch black night. Their sounding footsteps do not wake the sleeping people, because their snores are much louder. One person waves a gesture, telling the other person to come over to him.]

Person #1: Come on! We have to leave this place, before it’s too late!

Person #2: But, the others! What about Syrz?

Person #1: Forget it, there’s nothing we can do. They’re probably dead now…

Person #2: No, they can’t be…

Person #1: It doesn’t matter. We gotta go.

[Person #1 grips onto Person #2’s hands, who is resistant while they walk over to the front door. Suddenly, as if he’d been anticipating it, Morris flicks the lights from the top of the stairs, grinning at the two, who turn out to be Minami and Omar.]

Minami: Gah!—

Morris: What are you doing here?

Omar: We saw what you did to the group!

Morris: That does not matter, not until you two get in my way.

Minami: Why are you doing this, what are your plans?!

[Morris gently walks down the steps, still staring at them.]

Morris: My ways will not be revealed until after the effect.

Omar: What effect!?

Past Videm: Who’s there!?

[Past Videm pops out and sees the three.]

Minami: Videm?

Past Videm: Minami?

Omar: Morris!?

Morris: What?

Omar: Oh, nothing. I thought we were calling people’s names.

[Past Videm glances carefully at Minami and Omar.]

Past Videm: M—Morris, explain this! Why are there two Minami and Omar clones in my view?

Morris: They are Minami and Omar.

[Suddenly, the other Minami shows up next to Videm.]

Minami: Holy shit!

Past Minami: What the—

[Minami looks up at Morris.]

Minami: What the hell is all of this? You replaced us?

Morris: Well, not necessarily.

Omar: Explain this, crazy old man!

Morris: Silence!

[Morris’ voice booms throughout the mansion.]

Morris: Just be thankful you two don’t have villains to slay. Now, let’s start from the beginning, shall we?

[Morris claps his hands as the camera goes black.]

[The current group that is warping through dimensions wakes up on the metal floor, looking around them.]

Videm: Ugh, what’s with us getting trapped inside metal rooms?

Jeffrey: Who’s portal is this?

Scarlett: Guys, look!

[Scarlett points toward a mechanical elevator. It has many fancy and technical buttons on it.]

Videm: Guys, pssh, I got this.

[Videm gets up and pushes random buttons, but Isabelle stops him quickly.]

Isabelle: Stop! You don’t even know what you’re doing.

Videm: Shush, I got this!

[Videm shoves Isabelle off, who is shocked.]

Videm: I—uh, nevermind. You got this, Dr. Marv, don’t you?

Dr. Marv: Wait a sec—I’ve seen this elevator before…

[Dr. Marv gets a closer look, and sees a plate with “Aperture Science Innovators” written on it.]

Dr. Marv: Oh no, this is, perhaps, my portal…

Minami: Well, then who’s your villain?

Isabelle: Is it Cave Johnson, perhaps?

Dr. Marv: No, that would be too obvious. Morris obviously has a plan, and can use up any trick in his sleeves. He’ll get us trapped in some sort of ingenious mindset, then poof! We’re dead.

Jeffrey: Uh, does anyone, like, hear that?

[Gears start to roll, and the elevator, as if by magic, opens up. The inside looks cozy and crimson red. They all step in—fortunately the elevator is quite big, so it fits the group nicely.]

Vince: Ooh, a button :D

Scarlett: Stop it you [insert Scarlett-like insult here.]!

Vince: Why?! D:

Scarlett: We don’t even know where it will take us.

Videm: Well, we should probably explore. We have nowhere else to head to, so…

Scarlett: Shush, I’m talking!

[Dr. Marv then interrupts their argument by pushing the rooftop button.]

Videm: A—Alright… guess we’re going up.

Dr. Marv: I have this strange feeling that this is somehow my portal…

Kitten: Well, you are science-y, so I guess it would make sense.

[The elevator door then opens, revealing a huge, spherical room with many portraits of great scientists such as Democritus, Aristotle, Dimitri, etc… However, in the middle stands a pedestal next to two, big portraits. One is Cave Johnson, and the other is Dr. Roberto.]

Jeffrey: Oh my god, it’s Dr. Roberto!

Videm: Obviously, we see that, but why is it in Dr. Marv’s portal?

Dr. Marv: I’m not quite sure…

[Suddenly, a glimmer catches Dr. Marv’s eyes. He looks and sees a white heart crystal sitting on the pedestal.]

Dr. Marv: That’s it! That’s the second to last heart crystal we need!

Abby: What do we even need those for?

Dr. Marv: It’s too long to explain, for now, we shall take it and leave.

[Dr. Marv walks up to the pedestal while the others stand and watch cautiously. He looks in both directions, then quickly snatches the heart crystal, but it suddenly burns his hands, and he shouts in pain.]

Dr. Marv: Augh! What the hell—

[Suddenly, the ground rumbles, causing Dr. Marv to fall and a purple heart crystal to fall out of his pocket. The portraits then start to shine, then come to life. All of the scientists look confused, wondering what had just happened. Dr. Marv stands back up and sees two figures in front of him.]

Dr. Marv: Cave Johnson…

Cave Johnson: Hm? What?

Dr. Marv: And… who are you?

Dr. Roberto: I am Dr. Roberto, and what of it?

Isabelle: So many great, ancient scientists!

Dr. Roberto: I’m sorry, child, are you referring to me as an ‘ancient scientist’?

Isabelle: Well, out of all of these, I’m not exactly sure who you might be…

Kitten: Alright, alright, Dr. Rob—whatever. Let’s get this over with, we don't have much time.

Dr. Roberto: Dr. Roberto, and what are you talking about?

Dr. Marv: We were tasked to eliminate each of our villains, but I…

[Dr. Marv stops mid-way in his sentence, as Cave Johnson looks at him.]

Cave Johnson: But I?… Boy, you better finish the sentence.

Dr. Marv: I’ve always hated your name calling…

Videm: We, or I, come in peace.

Cave Johnson: Who the hell are you? Why are you acting like we’re aliens that just robbed the whole economy—oh wait, that is what I do. Excluding the alien part, of course.

[Dr. Roberto stands up upon the up upon the up upon the up upon the up upon the up upon the pedestal.]

Dr. Roberto: Alright, listen up.  I’m here bringing valuable good news.  I now have possession over this laboratory.  Rejoice, for your savior is here!

Videm: What gives you the right to do so? Do you have a treaty or something?

Dr. Roberto: Well, my confused child, I trapped all of the scientists into the portraits.

Dr. Marv: What good does it do you?

Dr. Roberto: I don’t have time for useless questions, now I’m going to trap all of you in the basement for the rest of your lives, a perfect amount of time for you all to think about what you have done!

Catalina: What have we done!?

Dr. Roberto: Everything!!!!!

Dr. Marv: Well, you won’t be able to execute such a plan with the power of our group!

Dr. Roberto: *laughs* You can’t even comprehend the amount of power contained within my residence of the facility.  I fell into a chasm possessing a longer fall distance than the Eiffel Tower would, and I still survived.  If you think you can beat me, you clearly are lying to yourself.

Mysq: Spicy can’t defeat you, but I’m sure someone in this group can!

Spicy: (irritated) Shut up!

Dr. Roberto: Alright, alright, shut up now.  I’m done talking with you idiots.

[Dr. Roberto pulls the lever, instantly retracting a section of the floor beneath the group, allowing them to free fall into their impending doom, excluding Dr. Marv, Isabelle, and Vinny, who are still right beside Cave Johnson.]

[Dr. Roberto points to Vinny and Isabelle.]

Dr. Roberto: While you. this female, and, this fellow over here, I have other plans for you.

Dr. Marv: You can’t do this!

Dr. Roberto: Don’t throw a temper tantrum, you know arguing is futile.

[The camera transitions into the hole, as the group keeps falling, and falling, and…]

Videm: Where are we headed? We’ve been falling for a good 10 minutes now!

Mysq: It’s a good thing my mask is superglued to my face.

Catalina: Seriously!?

Mysq: Not really, it’s just a heavy duty mask.

Scarlett: How is this umbrella not working? STUPID UMBRELLA WORK!

Alice: Oh my.

Syrz: My dress is going to fly up!

Catalina: Keep holding down, *whispering* we might have perverts here!

[Mysq winks seductively at the two ladies, getting screams in response.]

Mysq: *clearly hurt* What did I do?

[Spicy facepalms.]

Spicy: Why are you all so calm!?  We’re falling and we’re probably going to die when we hit bottom!

Vince: Oh god, what’s going to be down there? Candy? :D

[Mysq pulls Spicy over to the side.]

Spicy: What do you want now?

Mysq: You don’t have to be so mean.  I was just wanting to talk to you.

Spicy: Yeah?  What about?

Mysq: Is Catalina single?

[Spicy slaps Mysq.]

Mysq: Ow!  What was that for?

Spicy: You’re a fucking perv, that’s why!

Mysq: Rude… What about Syrz?

[Spicy slaps Mysq again.]

Spicy: Syrz has a boyfriend.

Mysq: Damn.  What about you?  Are you single?

[Spicy slaps Mysq, and he becomes quiet.  After a minute of silence, he continues talking.]

Mysq: You’re mean.  My cheek hurts now.

Spicy: Suck it up.

Vince: You know we can hear you guys. You’re not even whispering.

Spicy: Does it sound like we were talking to you?  Mind your own business.

Vince: Oh, okay.

Catalina: When are we going to get somewhere?

Sara: Ew! I’m so bored right now, we have to get somewhere, at least!

[They fall for another two minutes before Mysq starts talking. The group looks around; Videm looks at Catalina a few times, Kitten looks at Videm and Abby, and waisoningfoesif stuff here.]

Mysq: So, let’s have a story-time!

Catalina: That sounds fun!  Who’ll go first?

Mysq: I’ll go first, of course.  I suggested it.

Mysq: When I was younger, fifteen years old, I’m twenty now for your information, I got this mask.

~flashback mijagger mckjagger~

[A fifteen year old boy could be seen in green prince attire entering a cabin, the inside containing a store filled with various magical items.  This boy approached an old lady, presumably the store owner, him wielding a sword.  The boy pointed the sword at her.]

Mysq?: Oi, lady!  Gimme yer wares!

Store Owner: You ungrateful rat!  Where did you get that sword?

Mysq?: None o’ ya biz’ness, now gimme or I’ll git it meself!

Store Owner: You’ll regret ever coming here.

[The Store Owner stood and sent magical powder through the air at the boy, causing him to fall.]

Store Owner: This’ll teach you…

[The Store Owner waved her finger and a mask lifted into the air, planting itself on the boy’s face.]

Store Owner: Now, whenever you show your face to the royal family, Prince Mysq, you’ll have to admit you’re nothing but a rotten sinner.

~flashback enddd~

Mysq: Personally I think she overreacted.

Catalina: Oh… so that’s why you have a mask on…

Kitten: Heh, that reminds me of the time when I was developing a game…

[A flashback thing happens, and it shows Kitten sitting on a chair, frustratingly throwing a piece of crumpled paper into the garbage. She looked at the screen with unpleasant eyes. It was most likely midnight.]

Kitten: Why can’t I think of anything!?… and why am I talking to myself? Ugh, I’m weird…

[Kitten looked around, then saw her closet door shuffle. She raised her eyebrows, but went back to looking at her computer. She then saw she had a notification, and clicked on it. A message came up, saying “I see you’re struggling with your work… would you like me to help you with that?” Kitten frowned, disregarding it thinking it was adware. However, after a few minutes of more struggling on coming up with something, she looked at the notification again, hovering her mouse over yes. She checked around her room, then clicked yes. The message changed to “Do you trust me?”.]

Kitten: What the heck…

[She noticed the room closing in, as the computer began to overheat with its rattling fan. The message then changed to “I’ll take that as a yes.” Suddenly, everything began to turn to white. She was standing up, but there was nowhere to go; everything was a void painted with white. A little hexagonal figure then rose up behind Kitten.]

Fritty: Hey there, the name’s Fritty! What’s your name!?

[Kitten yelped, turning around to face Fritty.]

Kitten: W… what are you doing!?

Fritty: Don’t you see? I’m trying to help you! Look, a little oracle told me “Hey, you’ll probably meet this fine lady that may help with your problems!” And I was here faster than a pickle could scream. Oh wait, they can’t scream!

[Fritty hovered around her, inspecting closely.]

Fritty: Strange how the oracle said you were able to help me, as you look like you need lots of help yourself! Here, how about we exchange our problems like a crowd of sweaty women, you go first!

Kitten: Uh… I… um…

Fritty: Oh, haha! You thought I actually meant my smile! I’ll go, then.

[Fritty then shapeshifted into a witch.]

Fritty: There’s this witch back home named Lilyan! I can tell your human instincts of curiosity are triggering. Unfortunately, I’m here to fulfill it! This witch, or rather being, stole my soul! And I intend on taking it back one way or the other!

[Fritty looked up, and so did Kitten.]

Fritty: Hah! Made you look!

[Fritty quickly froze Kitten with a spell, but she didn’t have enough time to look down again.]

Fritty: Now, you can state your issues!

Kitten: I—guh—I… get me out of this!

Fritty: Aw, come on, isn’t it fun in there with your little human body?!

Kitten: I don’t WANT your help, just leave me alone!

Fritty: How about, NO!

[Fritty rumbled the dimension, as he evilly grinned with his hands in the air.]

Fritty: I WILL PUNISH YOU TO THE DEPTHS OF YOUR NIGHTMARE AND MAKE YOU SUFFER UNTIL YOU WILL ENJOY BURNING IN HELL!

[Kitten crouched in fear, as Fritty hovered over her with crimson, piercing eyes.]

Fritty: YOU SHOULDN’T HAVE SAID THAT YOU WASTED SOUL!

[Fritty raised his hands in the air, as he struck lightning. The ground began to turn fiery orange, and its texture changed from nothing to a rocky volcano’s texture. Everything around Kitten turned into a hellish dimension. She looked around, seeing Fritty’s true powers unveiled before her eyes.]

Fritty: Now, I’m going to make myself clearer and louder. STATE YOUR ISSUES AND YOU SHALL NOT BE TORTURED!

Kitten: I… alright, fine! I—I was working on this stupid fucking game, now leave me the fuck alone!

Fritty: Such vulgar language, young woman! Hehe, now that you’ve revealed your problems, let’s keep each other's problems secret, up until we need them. Kapeeshodo?

Kitten: What?…

[Fritty suddenly vanished, as did everything around Kitten.]

Fritty: Oh, and one last thing…

[Fritty punched Kitten behind her, and everything turned to black.]

Kitten: Then I woke up, thinking it was a nightmare.

Videm: Whoa, that sounds freaky. How come you never told us about this nightmare?

Kitten: ‘Cause I thought you’d make fun of me.

Videm: Why would I make fun of you?

Vince: Why would you NOT make fun of anyone?

Videm: True.

Mysq: Seriously, you sound like a loony-bat.  I guess that’s rich coming from someone who has been cursed with a mask on their face.

Kitten: I never saw Fritty again, so I guess it was just a nightmare.

Madison: That’s scary…

[Just then, the group goes out of the other end of the chasm. They fall onto the hard, cold metal floor, yet strangely there is no damage done to them. It is dark and ominous with a low-pitched hum all around. Machines are half-pneumatic, but are still able to warm up the room.]

Videm: Where are we? Why’d we take no damage?

Mysq: I ate the Leftover Funnel Cake Spicy and I picked up!  Fully recovered!

Spicy: Seriously?

Kitten: *whispers to Spicy* What’s with this guy’s acting?

Spicy: *whispers back* I honestly don’t know.

Abby: Um, guys? Come look at what I found.

Vince: Wat.

[Everyone goes towards Abby, making their way through the mess of crates scattered around the room. They see her pointing to an elevator door that has the same design as the other one from the original floor.]

Jeffrey: YAY! FREEDOM!

[Jeffrey goes up to push the elevator button, but it doesn’t do anything.]

Jeffrey: This place is stupid! It doesn’t even work!

[Jeffrey keeps mashing on the button, but alas there is no outcome.]

Madison: Jeffrey! You’re going to break it even more.

Videm: I have a solution!

[Videm stands behind the elevator door, and then runs towards it with a battlecry, and slams right into the elevator door, but he is knocked back and falls onto the ground, grunting in pain.]

Kitten: Oh Jesus, are you okay?

Videm: Ugh… I don’t know if I’m even okay or not… I can’t feel anything.

[Kitten helps Videm up whilst the others figure out how they were going to get out of here. People talk in groups.]

~Mysq and Catalina~

Mysq: Spicy won’t talk to me.

Catalina: …

Mysq: What?  Are you giving me silent treatment too?

Catalina: No, I just have nothing to say to you.

Mysq: Why is everyone here so uptight?  I thought my panties were too tight, but you all…

Catalina: Please go away.

Mysq: Rude… fine, I’ll go pester someone else then.

~Jeffrey and Madison~

Jeffrey: Well how are we going to get back?

Madison: It is Dr. Marv’s portal, he is probably working on it.

Jeffrey: Maybe, I don’t know. I’m just worried.

Madison: Don’t be.

[Madison leans over and kisses Jeffrey]

Jeffrey: Thanks.

[you can discuss here ‘cause idk why not.]

[Meanwhile, Dr. Marv and Isabelle are glaring at Dr. Roberto.]

Dr. Marv: What kind of man has this much wrath to be able to resist temptations of your soul?!

Dr. Roberto: The kind of man who has no heart.

[Isabelle looks over the huge hole the group had fallen into.]

Isabelle: Where are they headed?!

Dr. Roberto: Nowhere you should know, child.

Dr. Marv: What’s with you and calling everyone child?

Dr. Roberto: Because you all are inferior to my achievements. I invented ways to make humans into androids, and I won’t be hesitant to transform you into one if you don’t shut up.

[Dr. Roberto flicks a few levers, and more gears inside the walls start whirling.]

Random Scientist: Hey, what’s going on?

Cave Johnson: Alright, who’s the owner of this facility? I feel the need to speak with my fists if no one speaks up!

[Dr. Roberto slowly turns with a stern face, glaring at Cave Johnson.]

Dr. Roberto: Cave Johnson, I’ve always heard of you. You were the one who decided it was a good idea to implement your wife’s brain into a psychotic robot, but you were never doing it for love. You were doing it for selfish reasons. Your world is revolved around science, and your blood is pure evil, you know not how to love…

Cave Johnson: Why… you!

[Cave Johnson rushes at him, but Dr. Roberto stops him with a punch, and Cave is instantly knocked out. Shouts are heard around the room as the scientists witness Dr. Roberto rising to power.]

Dr. Roberto: Who else wants to tangle with my plans? Hm?

[The majority of the scientists run away in cowardness, but some stand up, facing him.]

Dr. Roberto: Hehe, I knew you’d stand up Mr. Mendeleev, inventor of the Periodic Table of Elements. You’re quite useful, infact…

[Dr. Roberto raises his arms, and claws begin to take Dimitri. He screams for help, but is sucked into the floor. Seconds later, out comes an android just like Dr. Roberto, who chuckles like a maniac.]

Isabelle: Stop doing all of these horrible things to them! Dr. Marv, you have to do something!

[Dr. Marv attempts to grab out his gravity gun, but Dr. Roberto instantly catches him and uses claws from the ceiling to grab him and encase him, along with Isabelle.]

Dr. Roberto: And for you, my fellow machine…

[Dr. Roberto points towards Vinny, who stands up, startled and awoken from his power nap.]

Vinny: Initiating wake up, charging up… power up operation completed successfully.

Dr. Roberto: … As for you, I have something you may want.

Vinny: What are you talking about? What’s going on?

[Vinny looks around, seeing the room: the hole, the cage with Dr. Marv and Isabelle, and Dr. Roberto, who is now standing up on top of a long pillar of wires and metals. Vinny realizes Dr. Roberto is the villain for Dr. Marv.]

Vinny: Seize yourself, Dr. Roberto! Your extermination will be quick if you were to give up now.

Dr. Roberto: Extermination? Extermination? Hehe, you make me laugh with joy, but not just any joy, but the type that will cause a genocide.

[Dr. Roberto stares down at Vinny, who goes into a stance beneath him.]

Dr. Roberto: Come. Join me in my army of robotic superiority, and we shall rule all.

[Dr. Roberto holds out his hands, grinning with a malevolent passion.]

Vinny: I decline your request, villain!

[Dr. Roberto frowns, standing up tall. He grins once again.]

Dr. Roberto: I do have something for you, however…

[Dr. Roberto raises his hands again, clapping it this time, and out comes Intrinity from the chasm. Smiling with joy, he stares at Vinny, who stares back in shock.]

Intrinity: So glad to see you again, son.

Vinny: Intrinity? How—

Dr. Roberto: Remember, science is useful…

Intrinity: Don’t you remember me?

Vinny: B—But…

[Vinny only stares in awe, as Intrinity takes a step closer to him.]

Intrinity: Come join us, and we’ll be together forever…

Vinny: I…

[Suddenly, Dr. Roberto throws a magnetic drive towards Vinny, which knocks him back.]

Dr. Roberto: Too late, you’re wasting my time. You’re being forced anyway.

Isabelle: Oh my god!

[Dr. Roberto presses a button beneath him, then Vinny is electrocuted.]

Vinny: Error… changing internal drive to backup… installing peripherals… installing personality and memories…

[Vinny then gets up, looks at Intrinity, then hugs him.]

Intrinity: I knew you’d always come to me, VVZ.

[Intrinity grins behind him.]

Dr. Roberto: Now it’s time for us to have fun, not that I’ve ever experienced fun.

[Dr. Roberto presses a few buttons, then the floor underneath the scientists are instantly retracted, just like what had happened to the group.]

~Down in the basement of the facility~

Videm: Ugh, how long has it been? 5 hours? 10 days? 50 years? I feel like I’m already dead now.

Mysq: I feel like an old man… or perhaps an old lady.  I still haven’t figured it out.

Scarlett: Well, my umbrella feels like it’s hungry…

[Scarlett stares at everyone.]

Scarlett: Maybe there can be a meal for it…

Kitten: Alright, then. We’re all already going insane.

Vince: No, that’s just naturally how Scarlett is.

Scarlett: SHUT UP VINCE.

Abby: Come on guys, we shouldn’t give up! We’ve got this, right?

Mysq: I vote we eat Vince.  He has the most meat.

Vince: RUDE! We should eat Blake Shelton, just saying.

[Suddenly, a lot of shouting comes from above. First, it is faint, but then it gets louder and louder and louder and lou—]

Scientists: AHHHH!

[They fall onto the crates, being untouched as are the group.]

Videm: Oh my god! It’s Isaac Newton! The guy who I always hated studying in school!

Newton: What is this preposterous, catastrophic event that had come down unto us like savage devils?

Vince: Newton’s alive?

Newton: Perhaps I may be, perhaps I may not be. I philosophize about the world’s reality, is it us that we think it’s reality? Or is it them who think of this world as fantasy?

Vince: I hate riddles. Just cook him up like I did with Humpty-Dumpty.

Mysq: I love riddles!  Say, what does a clock tell a mouse?

Vince: Fry him up as well.

Mysq: Rude!  Spicy, tell them to not!

Spicy: Fry him.

Mysq: Ruuude!

Vince: Dang it, I don’t have my portable deep-fryer with me today—I mean, it’s too bad we can’t actually fry him.

Videm: Guys, stop talking about frying animals. Just think! We have all of these amazing, genius scientists that know machinery.

Mysq: Wait… are you saying I’m an animal!?!?

Vince: Ha. You called him an animal. Wait, technically we’re all animals because our species is part of the Animalia kingdom. So, we’re animals. Also, we did indeed evolve from animals.

Charles Darwin: It’s true; we evolved from the apes!

Kitten: Shut up, Vince. He’s saying they can fix the fucking elevator!

Mysq: Yeah, Vince.  Shut up.

Vince: I will bring my deep-fryer and fry you at 114231243 Degrees fahrenheit.

Mysq: Bring it on, mate.  Challenge accepted.
Vince: Okay. *takes out deep-fryer from nearby box*

[The scientists begin to work on the elevator once they agree to, and they manage to make it functional.]

Videm: Alright, guys. Great job!

[Everyone goes inside of the elevator, but even with the amount of people put inside, there is still enough room.]

Videm: Wow, this elevator’s HUMONGOUS!

Jeffrey: Yay elevator!

[In the corner, two scientists are conversing with each other.]

Scientist 1: Hello, what science field do you expert in?

Scientist 2: Chemistry and Astronomy.

Scientist 1: Really? We should be boron difluoride!

Scientist 2: …

Scientist 1: Don’t you get it?

Scientist 2: I get it. I just don’t appreciate the effort you thought you put into the joke…

Scientist 1: …

Scientist 2: Man, I’m thirsty from that work…

Scientist 1: I’ve got H2O, you want H2O2?! HAH!

Scientist 2: … Can you just, please… not…

~Mysq and Spicy~

Mysq: Hello.

Spicy: Who are you?

Mysq: I’m Mysq, what is your name?

Spicy: Go away.

Mysq: It’s nice to meet you, Go away.  Do you come here often?

Spicy: Yes, because I regularly visit this lab.  What do you think?

Mysq: Not in the mood for jokes, okay…

Spicy: No.

Mysq: Okay, what’s up?  You’ve been treating me like shit all day.

Spicy: It’s none of your business.

Mysq: There it is again.  Why are you doing this?

Spicy: …

Mysq: So now you’re not going to answer me?  Fine.  But this isn’t it.  I’ll keep trying to get you to open up to me.

Spicy: (voice quivering) I recently lost someone close to me.  I don’t want to get close to someone else just to lose them again.

[Spicy walks away.]

~Alice and Abby~

Abby: Hey, Alice!

Alice: Hi.

Abby: You don’t talk a lot, do you?

Alice: Not really, I guess. So, how are you?

Abby: I’m fine… who do you think is cute, out of our group?

Alice: Hmmm… I’m not the type of person that gossips, so I couldn’t say.

Abby: Oh, well. Have you ever heard of Ed Sheeran? He’s so adorable!

Alice: Ed Sheeran? Was he the one who sang Hollaback Girl?—Er, wait, that was Gwen Stefani… wait, was he the one who sang Photography?

Abby: You know Gwen Stefani? You and Vince would be the perfect couple!

[Abby smiles with glee, as Alice stares in confusion. Abby then pushes Alice into Vince.]

Vince: Abby. I will literally murder you and use your bones in my broth.

Abby: That’s nice, now you can conversate :D

[Abby walks away.]

Vince: Whatever ._.

[Vince walks away.]

Alice: Hmm…

~Jeffrey and Madison~

[Jeffrey walks up to Madison and hugs her.]

Jeffrey: Hey Maddie.

Madison: Hi Jeffrey.

[They both smile at each other and cuddle.]

Jeffrey: Well, are you happy with the output of all this?

Madison: I may never play sims again, and some of these places have been creepy, but yeah. I’m glad I'm with you.

Jeffrey: Same.

[The elevator door opens, and it reveals Dr. Roberto sitting on a throne, grinning as if he was anticipating the group.]

Dr. Roberto: Ah, lovely, which is the opposite of your welcoming.

Videm: Look, he’s got Dr. Marv, Vinny, and Isabelle!

[Videm starts running towards Dr. Roberto with a fierce cry.]

Isabelle: I don’t think that’s such a good idea—

[Suddenly, Videm is pushed back by a force. Abby helps him up.]

Abby: You should probably stop running into walls…

Videm: That’s probably why I keep dying in Geometry Dash.

Dr. Roberto: Fools of another dimension, can’t you realize that you're no match against me?

Jeffrey: Yeah we are. We beat all of our villains. That means the heroes are going to win.

Dr. Roberto: Oh, really now? You truly think you’re going to win just because you’re heroes? Pathetic minds with weak bodies, you’re nothing but soulless, plagued rats. Your presence is that of a squashed lemon put into your eyes.

Dr. Marv: You’re bad at insults too.

[Dr. Roberto stops, facing away from Dr. Marv, and tilts his head.]

Dr. Roberto: And, yet, you’re better at managing yourself?

[Dr. Roberto looks up at him, grinning and chuckling.]

Dr. Roberto: Oh Marv, Dr. Marv. A foolish person incapable of keeping friendships and telling the truth. In fact, when you were kicked out by Cave Johnson, you were supposedly stealing and envious of Cave Johnson’s status. You tried taking over the facility, just like I did. You and Isabelle were still strong lovers, but when she saw what you did, she was depressed, and decided to give Cave Johnson the idea of installing cores onto GLaDOS…

[Everyone stands shocked by everything he said, staring at Dr. Marv, some with disgust, and some with sadness. Videm has no expression, only staring at Dr. Marv.]

Isabelle: But… I don’t remember…

Dr. Roberto: That’s because you were created by the Book of Pure Darkness, which was written by Morris with the help of Dr. Marv. Morris said to Dr. Marv that he would be able to get anything he wants, but the catch…

[Dr. Roberto turns to the group.]

Dr. Roberto: Hehe, well, that’s something only we should know.

Abby: Who’s this we?

Dr. Roberto: Again… it’s something I do not feel like revealing. Now, shall you be executed?

Mysq: Battle start!

~Battle~

Mysq: Dr. Roberto draws near!

[Dr. Roberto laughs malevolently.]

Dr. Roberto: You’re gonna have a bad time…

[Videm jumps up towards the pillar of wires, climbing it, but [sic]

Dr. Roberto: Kids like you should be burning in hell.

Mysq: How will you act!?  Fight or Flee?

Catalina: Fight!

[Catalina takes out her whip and strikes Dr. Roberto.]

Mysq: Dr. Roberto is stunned by the beauty of Cat—

[Catalina slaps Mysq.]

Mysq: Ow… critical hit…

[Mysq has fainted.]

Spicy: Finally…

[Dr. Roberto stands up, grinning almost as if he were a wide skeleton.]

Videm: Uh, I’m gonna check Dr. Roberto!

[Dr. Roberto raises one eyebrow, as Videm glares at Dr. Roberto carefully.]

Dr. Roberto: Don’t you have anything else better to do!?

[Dr. Roberto raises his hands, which summons panels to rise off the floor.]

Isabelle: You stole those from Aperture Science!

Dr. Roberto: Shush, child. I invented these on my own… after I modified Aperture Laboratories’ brand panels, of course.

Videm: C’mon guys, we’ve got this!

[Videm jumps from the wall and onto the top of the pillar. He throws a punch at Dr. Roberto, who instantly blocks it. Videm retracts in pain as his hands clank against the metallic hand.]

Videm: HOLY HELL THAT IS NOT SKIN!

Dr. Roberto: What’d you expect it to feel like? A cloud?

[Dr. Roberto kicks Videm off the pillar.]

Vince: Oh no, not the pillar!

Videm: Dammit, Vince!

[Mysq wakes up.]

Mysq: Critical!

[Catalina slaps him again.]

Alice: Nice aim.

Videm: Must. Resist…

 Mysq: Oh, it’s on, sis!

~Sub Battle~

[Mysq stands in front of Catalina in a menacing way.]

Catalina: Bring it on.

Mysq: Mysq uses an item, he uses the Used Underwear!  He gains 10 SP!

Catalina: …What are you doing?

[Mysq puts the used underwear on his head.]

Catalina: …

Mysq: Catalina is confused!

[Abby suddenly interrupts them.]

Abby: Stop! Why are we fighting each other?

Mysq: ‘Cause Catalina is a scrub.

Catalina: You’re a bigger one, doofus with undies on his head.

Dr. Roberto: ENOUGH!

[Everyone stops, and looks at Dr. Roberto.  Mysq takes the underwear off of his head.]

Dr. Roberto: Enough of this, there’s no room for your crippled bodies in this facility except in the rotting incinerator.

Dr. Marv: Just release us, and we won’t do any harm…

Dr. Roberto: That’s a lot coming from a confident warrior. You practically dragged the group, and most of them wouldn’t have been alive without you, especially Videm.

[Videm is recovered, being with the crowd. He stares up in disbelief.]

Dr. Roberto: Dr. Marv, a foolish scientist with no sentimental values other than giving the group everything they don’t deserve…

[Dr. Roberto picks out a heart crystal.]

Dr. Roberto: And now, it’s time to test you!

[He opens the cage, and instantly Dr. Marv runs towards him, kicking him, all while Vinny and Intrinity are put onto the floor, set to fight against the group.]

Intrinity: You won’t be able to get past my fabulousness!

[Intrinity runs towards Vince, smiling with a villainous pride.]

Vince: Oh god! What the heck is going on?! This is more weird than Adele suddenly releasing Hello! o3o

[Intrinity attempts to slap Vince, but Vince holds up his hands, and he stops.]

Vince: Wait, what? o3o

[Vince then waves his hands, and Intrinity flies in the air.]

Vince: OMG! I have my powers back, YAY!

[Vince throws Intrinity up in the air, and then smacks him against the wall repeatedly.]

[Dr. Roberto gets up and throws a hit at Dr. Marv, who tries to block it, but the force is too strong to defend against.]

Dr. Marv: ARGH!

[Dr. Marv recovers, getting up. Dr. Roberto stands there, grinning with anticipation.]

Dr. Roberto: A fool like you, I should’ve expected no less.

Dr. Marv: I’m going to say this one more time, just let us go!

Dr. Roberto: You really want to go that badly?

Dr. Marv: We’re not going to stay here, are we?!

[Dr. Roberto glares at him with a fierce, malevolent passion, the kind Dr. Marv hates getting.]

Dr. Roberto: Very well, then. Let’s begin the game.

[Dr. Roberto raises both his arms, looking up in the air, and the two are suddenly transported inside a Neptune cavern. The wind on the surface is not very inviting, and there is a constant quaking going around in the room.]

Dr. Roberto: Marv, I’ve known you for so long. I’ve watched every one of your moves, observing your behavior.

[Dr. Roberto smiles.]

Dr. Roberto: And you’re just like me, aren’t you?

Dr. Marv: I’m nothing like you! You psychotic freak controller!

Dr. Roberto: Really now?

[Dr. Roberto raises his arms, revealing a huge hologram between the two.]

Dr. Roberto: At the age of 14, you started working on your very own scientific experiment. And what did you use for that experiment, you may ask? Well, I mean, you should know. You did it. You monster.

[The hologram shows a little girl with a little kid.]

Young Dr. Marv: Delecia, don’t touch that, you’re gonna get poisoned.

Delecia: But what if I want to get poisoned!?

Young Dr. Marv: Del—ugh, you make no sense. Just, get out of my room, you’re disturbing me.

Delecia: Can I help, then!?

Young Dr. Marv: No, I don’t want you disturbing me. This experiment means very much to me, and if I don’t win this competition—

[Young Dr. Marv looked up at the Aperture Laboratories poster.]

Young Dr. Marv: I’ll be heartbroken, and you won’t like that, would you?

Delecia: Of course not, I love you brother!

Young Dr. Marv: Yeah, whatever.

[Young Dr. Marv went back to his experimentation. He held up a little, harmless snail and set it down under the microscope. He looked through it, whilst Delecia was behind him, playing with a little doll.]

Delecia: So, what would you like, Nathan? *puts ear next to the doll* What’s that? You want a kiwi? Ew, disgusting!

Young Dr. Marv: Be quiet, back there. I’m trying to work!

Delecia: You’re mean! Why don’t you play with me anymore!?

Young Dr. Marv: Because I’m busy, and I don’t feel like it…

Delecia: When I ask you if you want to do something, you always say no!

[An irritated Young Dr. Marv turned and glared at Delecia. He strode towards her, raising his arm.]

???: Stop! Don’t hurt her!

[He turned his head, confused.]

Delecia: Shh! *whispering* Not now, Nathan!

[He looked at the doll quizzically.]

Young Dr. Marv: The doll… is alive?

[Delecia stared at him for a moment before shaking her head slowly.]

Young Dr. Marv: Delecia… what did mommy say about lying?

[He slowly stepped towards her, as she backed away, clutching the doll.]

Young Dr. Marv: You don’t want to be a bad person, right, Delecia?

[Suddenly, she bolted towards the door, but he managed to grip onto her sleeve, pulling her back. He then rips the doll from her arms as she cries out.]

Delecia: Give Nathan back! Don’t hurt him!

[He quickly sprinted out of the garage through another door and out into the wilderness, clutching Nathan in his hands.]

Nathan: What are you doing?…

Young Dr. Marv: You have something inside of you, something radiating…

[He hid away in the nearby forest, looking around to make sure he was alone. He then set the doll down onto a stump, pulling out a little scalpel.]

Nathan: No, don’t!—

[He started ripping out Nathan's insides, throwing away the cotton off the stump. He then found a pulsing, glowing gemstone-like object, carefully examining it with a smile spread across his face.]

[The hologram then switches to a scene of Delecia, alone, standing in front of Nathan on the stump. Several drops of tears fell onto the cotton that strewn across, and all but the pulsing object remained. She gently rubbed Nathan's head that now lay apart from his body.]

Dr. Roberto: Who’s psychotic now?

[Dr. Marv only stands silent, looking away.]

Dr. Roberto: At age 20, when you were working in Aperture Laboratories. You stole many artifacts and ideas. Infact…

[Dr. Roberto smiles.]

Dr. Roberto: You made the dimension machine from Cave Johnson’s ideas and theories, not yours. You showed the group your hard work, when in reality…

[Dr. Roberto pulls out a handwritten paper with Dr. Marv’s name on it. It did, in fact, not resemble what Dr. Marv had claimed to have written.]

Dr. Roberto: You’re a soulless fool, only hungry for knowledge, but so am I! And that’s why you should join me.

[Dr. Marv looks down, frustrated. He then reaches into his pocket.]

Dr. Roberto: Ah ah ah!

[Dr. Roberto raises his right hand, shooting at Dr. Marv, who is blasted away and slammed against the wall.]

Dr. Marv: AGH!

[Dr. Marv lies there, injured.]

Dr. Roberto: You’re a brat. You’re ignorant and arrogant. You’re full of yourself.

Dr. Marv: I… Gah—I’m not!

Dr. Roberto: Denial is the first step of grief, except this time you're grieving over your first loss at an argument.

Dr. Marv: Just, stop!… What do you want from me!?

Dr. Roberto: I want destruction. Power from you.

[Dr. Marv still sits, not saying a word.]

Dr. Roberto: Well, don’t you have anything to say?

[Dr. Marv frowns, still recovering from the blast.]

Dr. Roberto: Alright, then… hehe…

[Dr. Roberto reaches out his hands once again, and Isabelle suddenly appears in front of him.]

Isabelle: What the—

[Suddenly, the floor underneath Isabelle disappears. Fortunately, and unfortunately, Dr. Roberto uses mysterious magnetic forces to raise her in the air. Below her is a slowly growing black hole. Dr. Marv gets up, raising his eyebrows.]

Dr. Marv: Isabelle, no!

Dr. Roberto: Getting up after love, of course! Your group is filled with pathetic love. False love and greedy love. You’re but tiny specks in the universe, and yet you search for someone to care about, when really, you’re only hurting yourself!?

Isabelle: Dr. Marv, help!

[Dr. Marv goes out to reach, but Dr. Roberto interrupts him.]

Dr. Roberto: I wouldn’t do that if I were you. You see, if I let Isabelle go, you get to have this…

[Dr. Roberto pulls out a white heart crystal, grinning once again. Dr. Marv stops in his tracks.]

Isabelle: W—What!? Help me, don’t take his calls!

Dr. Marv: I—I’m sorry, Isabelle. But this is more important than anything in the world…

[Dr. Roberto laughs, lowering Isabelle.]

Isabelle: What!? Dr. Marv! I thought you were better than this. Don’t do this!

[Dr. Marv raises his arms and closes his eyes.]

Isabelle: You idiot! Look what you’re doing!

Dr. Roberto: AHAHAAHA! I knew you would do this!

[Isabelle is a few meters away from the black hole. Although far away it had seemed, the black hole’s magnetic field is right beneath her feet.]

Dr. Roberto: I can feel the force going away from me! Such wondrous! Such marvel!

Isabelle: Please… Dr. Marv… it’s me, your co-assistant…

[Suddenly, Dr. Marv opens his eyes. He looks around in shock.]

Dr. Marv: Isabelle! No!

Dr. Roberto: Too late, motherfucker!

[Dr. Marv quickly springs to his feet, quickly grabbing his gravity gun. He falls into the hole, then reaches out to grab Isabelle. He uses the gravity gun to raise Isabelle out of the hole in nanoseconds. However, he himself falls into the black hole, and in just a matter of seconds, he disappears with the black hole. Everything had happened so fast, that Dr. Roberto and Isabelle couldn’t react. They just stand in shock.]

Isabelle: I… I…

[Isabelle drops down to her knees, and tears begin to roll down her eyes. The planet they are on is silent for the first time in forever. There is no wind, and there is no shaking. The room is as silent as the deep, dark space. Her crying starts out with just tears, but begins to get louder, as she realizes what she said to get him to snap back to reality.]

Dr. Roberto: No—NO!

[Dr. Roberto is fading away. Isabelle looks up with water in her eyes, and witnesses Dr. Roberto’s struggle against the force.]

Dr. Roberto: NOOOOO!!!!—

[And everything is silent once again. After a few seconds, the room around Isabelle begins to turn black, and she falls into an infinite hole once again.]

~Back at the facility~

Videm: What’s with Vinny? He’s been acting strange lately…

Vince: Help me!

Videm: Eh.

[Vinny dashes towards Videm.]

Videm: Whoa, deja VUUUU—

[Videm is hit in the stomach by Vinny, and they hit the wall. Vinny begins to fly and throw a few sharp things towards Spicy.]

Spicy: Huh!?

[They cover their eyes in fear, then look up, seeing that Mysq had taken the blow.]

Spicy: Huh!?

Mysq: Critical… hit… Mysq… faints…

[Mysq falls to the ground.]

[Jeffrey and Madison run away trying to find a safe spot.]

Jeffrey: Over here!

Madison: Hurry!

[Videm gets up and runs towards Vinny, going onto him.]

Videm: Where’s the hard drive slot!?

[Videm reaches all around Vinny, touching something.]

Videm: Oh god, that’s definitely not a hard drive!

[Videm then finds the slot, and extracts it. He pockets the hard drive.]

Videm: Yes! Wait—uh-oh.

[Vinny begins to fall with Videm, but Videm jumps and rolls off onto the floor.]

Videm: Ta-da! Wait, does anyone hear thAAAHHHH!!!

[Suddenly, similar to Isabelle’s events, the floor disappears underneath the group, and they begin to fall into the warp hole once again.]


Outro

[At the mansion, Minami and Omar of the present times are sent to the secret room.]

Minami: Dude, why did he send us here and not with our clones?

Omar: I don’t even know…

Minami: Wait, isn’t this the same room Videm told me about? The one Morris caught the group in?

[Minami looks around.]

Minami: It’s such a strange room… Oh well.

[Minami goes to bed, while Omar goes to sleep on the floor. The night is usually full of crickets, but no crickets are heard. The camera shows the full room, but something is lurking. A shadow. It grows bigger and bigger, and it gets closer to the camera. Suddenly, it disappears.]


Episode 17 - Dusk of the Loving Death

[The rustling trees of the forest sound almost like the settled waves that synced together. The dawning light is seen in the distance, and the little birds fly into their nests, their flap almost in unison with the waves. The moonlight makes the mansion look shiny, and very godly. Inside the mansion, everyone is getting ready for bed after dinner. Inside the kitchen, Dale and Dave are cleaning up.]

Dale: Jesus Christ would be proud of your work, boy.

Dave: Yeah…

[Dave looks up at Dale from his floor scrubbing task, seeing him cleaning the dishes.]

Dave: Um… Dale?

Dale: Yeah?!

Dave: I—uh… well… was wondering where that Book of Pure Darkness went…

[Dale stops cleaning his dishes, then looks down.]

Dale: That ain’t any of your business, boy.

Dave: But, it has been almost a month ever since the book caused havoc in the mansion.

Dale: It don’t mean anything, boy. It’s gone, just like those atheists’ minds, now go back to cleaning, Dave.

Dave: Y—You never called me by my name, why?

Dale: Because…

[Dale takes a deep breath.]

Dale: Look, I can’t TAKE IT ANYMORE!

[Dale suddenly throws his dishes, and it breaks. Dave gets up quickly and walks back in fear. Dale is nearly hovering over Dave.]

Dale: ESCAPE WHILE YOU CAN, BOY! RUN! MORRIS IS OUT TO GET YOUR SOUL! RUN WHILE—

[Dale suddenly disappears, and the door opens. Morris walks inside with no expression. He stares at Dave.]

Morris: I suppose I can tell you what’s going to happen since I’m about to kill you…

[Dave tries moving, but something is keeping him from doing so.]

Morris: You see, all I really want to do is bring the world to its knees, that’s all. I plan on doing so with a Dimension Corruptor, powered by the souls of the villains each of the group has defeated. And, maybe, just maybe, you might help, perhaps.

[Morris suddenly stabs Dave, who falls onto the ground.]

Morris: It’s almost done.

[The present group is falling, and falling, and—you get it, alright? Alright, now someone seal up this fourth wall, it’s driving me nuts.]

Vince: UGH! When are we going somewhere!?

Spicy: *holding the fallen Mysq, no pun intended* And when is this idiot going to wake up?  He’s heavy, and doesn't bring up the argument that we’re falling so it doesn’t really matter since gravity and stuff but whatever!

Videm: Why are you holding onto him if you hate him?

Spicy: If I dropped him then… I dunno.

Scarlett: I’m SO BORED! And hungry. BUT I’M ALSO BORED!

Videm: God dammit, we need a way out, but with Dr. Marv dead…

[Videm looks at Isabelle, who closes her eyes. She takes a deep breath after Videm mentions his name.]

Catalina: A—Anyway, let’s talk about something else.  Hopefully we can find a way out, somehow…

Videm: Yeah, I agree.

[Mysq wakes up, confused.]

Mysq: Why are you holding onto me?  You’re touching my…

Videm: Oh boy, let’s not get on Omar’s level of excitement.

Jeffrey: Well then.

[Spicy drops Mysq.]

Mysq: Hey!  Rude… I was going to say my ribs… nothing else.

Vince: You sure about that?

Mysq: Yeah, it’s not like they were touching anything else on me.  But I wouldn’t’ve minded if they—

[Spicy slaps Mysq.]

Mysq: Ow… critical hit…

Vince: I still think we should fry him…

Mysq: I think you all are meanies…

Spicy: Hey, you’re getting blood on me.  Here.

[Spicy tears off part of their shirt and uses it as a bandage for Mysq’s bleeding leg.]

Vince: And this is the part when Mysq gets a nosebleed.

Spicy: And this is the part where I slap you.

Vince: Yay :D

Mysq: Thanks for bandaging my leg. <3

Vince: Insert nosebleed here.

Spicy: It’s just because you were getting blood on my nice clothes.

Videm: Wait, guys! I see the mansion below us!

Abby: What!?

[Everyone looks below, and indeed there is an image of the mansion getting closer and closer. Everything suddenly flashes bright white.]

Videm: What the—

???: F’’v,… p’ee,v… ‘peve,…

Kitten: Uh, well that’s not nice…

Abby: Wait, how can you understand her?

Kitten: I dunno, it’s just natural, I guess.

Vince: Natural?

Videm: More like, SUPERNATURAL!

Jeffrey: It’s supernatural, It’s extraterrestrial~!

Vince: No. Just no.

Mysq: Does someone want to explain who that voice is?

Kitten: Well, she was in my dreams and nightmares. I can’t describe her very well… But she wears a red, crimson dress…

Videm: Wait… I saw that same lady when we were riding the ferris wheel while Vince was getting things for the princess.

Vince: What princess?

Videm: I don’t even know, you were playing on your DS.

Vince: What DS?

Mysq: I remember that accursed thing… it hit me in the head and then, possessed by a demon, tried to attack me.  I then defeated it by stomping on it.

Vince: What demon? Bobby Cinnamon? He’s not a demon. It’s actually saying… Excusez-moi, ça ne vous embête pas que je vous observe une minute? Je veux me souvenir de votre visage pour mes rêves.

Alice: Um… why would it say that? Also, why would it want to remember you in its dreams?

Catalina: Mysq, what are you doing?

[Mysq is laying his head on Catalina’s arms while his feet are being propelled by Spicy.]

Mysq: I’m tired.

[The group suddenly wakes up on the beach.]

Videm: Ugh, my head hurts, again.

Mysq: Uh, Spicy… you can let go of me.  Or don’t, I don’t mind.

[Spicy realizes they are holding onto Mysq.  They slap him and get up.]

Scarlett: We need to give that stupid fucking Morris guy a piece of my umbrella!

[Scarlett quickly gets up and runs towards the mansion.]

Madison: Should we follow her or something?

Abby: Probably.

[Everyone follows Scarlett, but stops at the front yard of the mansion, looking up at it. It is different than it was before.]

Videm: That’s weird, I don’t remember the windows being shut…

Kitten: Yeah, this is strange…

[Kitten goes up and knocks on the door. Suddenly, the door is opened, and a young man with crimson red hair is behind it.]

Kitten: It’s Morris! We’ve got him!
Morris: What are you—AAHH!!

[Morris is tackled down by Kitten, but suddenly she stops when he pleads for mercy.]

Morris: Please, I beg of you! Please don’t rob me, I—I’ll give you anything!

Kitten: Huh? False alarm, it’s probably just Morris’ son or something.

[Kitten lets Morris go, and everyone goes to look at him.]

Young Morris: Wh… why are you here?

Videm: This just got A LOT more confusing…

[Abby goes up to him, and smiles.]

Abby: This Morris looks a lot more handsome.

Mysq: *whispering* I know, right?

Young Morris: I—uh… um… please, come in.

[Young Morris lets the group in. They look around, and Jeffrey is the first to notice the changes in the architectural designs.]

Jeffrey: What happened to this place…?

Young Morris: Well, I guess if you guys have nowhere else to go, then you’re welcome to stay here.

Mysq: Really!?  This place is beautiful!  I wonder what my room will look like…

[Everyone goes back to their regular rooms, but it is barely decorated or furnished.]

~Videm’s Room~

Videm: Hm… there’s only one computer and one bed…

[Videm looks around, sighing.]

Videm: If only Dr. Marv was here, he’d probably do something science-y to decorate the room…

[He sighs again, reaching down into his pocket. He picks out a blue gel container Dr. Marv gave to him.]

Videm: If only…

~Spicy and Mysq’s Room~

Spicy: What.  The.  Actual. Fuck.  Why are you here!?

Mysq: That cute guy told me I was your roommate.

Spicy: Why is this happening to me?

Mysq: You don’t have to be so mean… I don’t take up much space.

Spicy: Sleep on the floor.

Mysq: The floor!?  I’ll have you know… I’m basically a prince.

Spicy: Basically?

Mysq: Well… my prince status was revoked after the whole mask incident.

Spicy: Oh, right.  Anyway, this room looks different.  There’s only a bed and no clothes… but there is a single laptop…

Mysq: A laptop?  Can we play video games on it?

Spicy: Not right now, I need to see if…

[Spicy presses enter after entering their password.  A prompt comes onto the screen, saying “This password has expired.  Please reset your password.”  Spicy is visibly upset, but says nothing.  They close the lid to the laptop.]

Mysq: What?  Did you forget your password?

Spicy: I… don’t want to talk about it.

[Spicy lies on the bed, looking up at the ceiling, trying to hold back tears.  Mysq awkwardly starts to lay on the floor.  Spicy stops him.]

Spicy: Please… lay with me.

Mysq: Are you sure?

Spicy: Yeah.

[Mysq lies on the bed next to Spicy, clearly uncomfortable.  He then laughs.]

Spicy: What’s so funny?

Mysq: I see London, I see France, I see Spicy’s under—

[Spicy pushes Mysq off of the bed.]

Spicy: You’re not allowed up here anymore.

Mysq: Ruude…

[Spicy, despite themselves, smiles, but doesn’t let Mysq see.]

~Syrz’s Room~

Syrz: It’s so quiet in here… how strange…

~Abby and Kitten’s Room~

Kitten: So, are you completely over father?

Abby: Y—Yeah. I am. Why do you ask?

Kitten: It’s been almost a month ever since the mansion incident, and when you guys danced together…

Abby: How do you know about the dance between me and Videm? Was it Videm that told you?

Kitten: Well, no… it was the strange lady that kept appearing in my dreams that told me…

Abby: Huh? How… I—I’m just gonna let go of the past. I don’t want to think about it anymore.

Kitten: Okay… mother :)

[Kitten hugs Abby. At first, she is surprised, but she then hugs back.]

~Catalina’s Room~

[Videm knocks on the door.]

Videm: Catalina?

Catalina: Videm?

[Catalina opens the door.]

Catalina: What do you need?

Videm: Remember the facility? And Dr. Marv’s death?

Catalina: Yeah, what about it?

Videm: Well, I may have found the last heart crystal he talked about that we needed.

[Videm holds it up. It is the white heart crystal, the same one Dr. Roberto possessed at the time.]

Videm: I found it falling above us, so I grabbed it and hid it.

Catalina: Wait… I also found the purple one that Dr. Marv dropped!

[She takes out the purple heart crystal.]

Videm: I wonder why Dr. Marv was so determined to collect all of these… He told me to keep all of these heart crystals in my pocket.

[Catalina stows the heart crystal back into her pocket.]

Catalina: Do you think… Isabelle would know?

Videm: Probably, I’m not too sure…
Catalina: Yeah, I doubt it, but…

Videm: This is a strange puzzle we’re dealing with here…

[Videm walks back and forth, holding the many artifacts he keeps in his pocket; the tablet, the heart crystals, Vinny’s hard drive, and a random piece of gum wrapper. He spreads them out onto Catalina’s bed.]

Catalina: Why do you have a gum wrapper in your pocket?

Videm: Oh, I’ve had plenty of my own thieving days, hah.

[Catalina stares blankly at him.]

Videm: A—Anyway… do you have a PC of any kind?

Catalina: Yeah, I have a laptop.

Videm: Great! Let’s just put this in…

[Videm inserts the USB drive, and a prompt comes up, saying, “Are you sure you want help?”.]

Videm: Help? What?

[Videm ignores the prompt, going to the USB drive location. He clicks on it, but it only comes up with, “Come on, don’t you need help?”.]

Videm: What the hell? Stupid message—

[Suddenly, everything turns white, and the laptop disappears. Catalina’s room disappears along with it, and so the two are just in a white abyss. They hear a distant, low laugh from behind. They turn around to see Fritty.]

Fritty: Ah, and you must be the father!

Announcer: AND NOW WE’RE BACK TO WORLD DANGERS

Videm: Oh no, IT’S A TALKING POLYGON! WE’RE DOOMED!

Fritty: AHAHAHA! You make me laugh like a deceased person—oh wait, THEY DON’T LAUGH!

[Fritty zaps at the ground beneath the two, as it turns into human flesh. Videm screams like a girl.]

Videm: AHHH JESUS CHRIST! WHAT DO YOU WANT FROM US?

Catalina: This is Fritty, from Kitten’s story!

Videm: Oh wait—now I remember!

Fritty: And I remember how annoying and stubborn your human descendant was! Such ignorance and bliss makes utter chaos!

Videm: Again, what do you want from us?!

Fritty: Hm…

[Fritty hovers with his hands folded on his back.]

Fritty: So your human baby told all about me? How lovely, now I know she’s a great pawn to play with!

[Fritty turns with his eyes glaring.]

Fritty: Not that she wasn’t the pawn already.

Videm: Just let us go! Stupid polygon!

Fritty: AHAHAHA! Your way of needing to call entities by names is a foolish and funny manner!

Videm: Come on, dude. You’re so hypocritical with your “AHAHAH THIS STUPID PERSON IS ANNOYING!”

Fritty: Ah, I see you’re VERY liking of my mockery behavior!? How about you try and mock me NOW!?

[Fritty zaps at Videm, and he turns into a pile of goo.]

Videm: AHH! WHAT THE HELL!

[Catalina gasps, as she stares at Videm.]

Fritty: Now, female human, try me if you dare!
[Catalina brings out her whip.]

Fritty: Come on, human. JUST TRY TO COME AT ME!

Catalina: *under breath* Ay, caramba…

[Catalina strikes with her whip. However, Fritty blocks it, and it hits Catalina back, making a scar on her arm.]

Fritty: AAHAHAHAHA! Now, it’s time to get to real business.

[Fritty’s eyes turn crimson, and so does the sky. A storm starts brewing.]

Fritty: AA’vv, e…t’…v’ee…’efve

Videm: What’s he saying?

Catalina: I don’t know.

Fritty: Now, your daughter needed help of some sort, and I intend on fixing it myself!

Videm: She only had frustration for coming up with her game!

Fritty: That wasn’t the only thing she needed help with. Besides, don’t you need help!?

Videm: I—well…

Fritty: How about this? I reveal Morris’s true plans, and in return…

[Fritty makes a hand shape of a heart with Catalina and Videm in it.]

Fritty: You two get to have the weird thing called love!

Videm: WHAT!?

Catalina: Huh!?

Fritty: I know you two like each other, there’s no denying it. It’s perfect after the breakup between you and Abby.

Videm: I—I’m still not ready—

Fritty: Oh trust me, Videm. All of your problems will be solved!

Catalina: You’re insane!

Fritty: No, YOU’RE insane for not agreeing! Trust me, Catalina. I know MUCH more than you think!

Catalina: I don’t know what you think, but y—you should die!!

Fritty: TRY ME! HUMAN! YOU WANT ANOTHER SCAR? HOW ABOUT I SHUFFLE EVERY FUNCTIONS OF YOUR FACE, INSTEAD? HUH!?

Catalina: I—I’m not scared of you!  *she raises her whip, and attempts to attack him*

Videm: You can do it, Catalina!

Fritty: I’m bored of your useless attempts. IT’S TIME TO UNLEASH MY ULTIMATE POWER! MUWAHAHAHAHA!

[Fritty then rises into the sky, glaring like a tiger at its prey. He then raises his stick arms, and chants a few foreign words.]

Fritty: A’vee,… v’,ee… v,,.’VEE’

[Videm is brought back to his human form. The heart crystals begin to float around Fritty.]

Fritty: It’s TIME TO CORRUPT YOUR SOULS!

Videm: What does he mean by that?

[Videm’s question is interrupted by a bright white flash, and then everything begins to fade.]

[Back at the original mansion, the past group is eating breakfast.][i][j]

~Past Videm and Past Abby~

Past Videm: So, what do you want to do first?

Past Abby: We should play Bloxx!

Past Videm: Oh my god, yes! We should!

Past Abby: We should do it after we’re finished. I’m starving so much right now.

Past Videm: Same.

[Past Videm eats in a neat fashion, trying to act fancy.]

~Past Spicy and Tiny~

Past Spicy: Are there any donuts here?

Tiny: Yeah, right here.

[Tiny hands Past Spicy two donuts.]

Past Spicy: OMGOMGOMG!  I LOVE DONUTS!!!

[Past Spicy devours the donuts whole.]

~Epic and Past Vince~

Epic: Are there any tacos!?

Past Vince: I don’t think tacos are breakfast foods.

Epic: Too bad! Get me tacos!

Past Vince: Girl, hush puppie.

Epic: I need my tacos or I could die!

Past Vince: I don’t think you will.

Epic: I will find tacos somewhere!

[Epic jumps on the table and looks for tacos while Past Vince just rolls his eyes.]

Morris: Has everyone finished?

Past Videm: I’m finished!

[Past Spicy sits there dazed with donuts digesting in their stomach.]

Past Spicy: Just… one… more…

[Past Spicy tries to fit one more donut into their mouth, before it inevitably comes out of their mouth in projectile form.]

Funk: Okay…

[Everyone sits in silence.]

Morris: This does not prove to be a very active group, I presume?

Past Videm: Hey, Morris. What’s that thing?

[He points to The Book of Pure Darkness, which is lying flat against the counters above the fireplace.]

Morris: What book?

Past Videm: Right there.

[He raises his other index finger to point at it.]

Morris: You are being delusional; there’s nothing there.

Epic: I see it too…

Spicy: Yeah, same.

[Everyone murmurs and stares at Morris. Past Videm then gets up and starts walking towards the book. Morris suddenly starts rushing towards him.]

Morris: No, don’t!

[Past Videm picks up the book, but Morris accidentally bumps into him, which knocks it out of his hands and into the fireplace. Suddenly, the book opens, and a light starts shining.  From the light, a figure appears.]

???: ‘vee,… ,’fee…,vvaa’’

[The figure starts to become visible as the light fades.  Everyone’s gazes fix on a deep crimson color.  The character has long crimson hair and a long dress of crimson.]

Woman: ‘v,…ee’,ee…v’fee,…

Morris: Well… fuck…

[The mansion starts to crumble around them.  Everyone runs towards the entrance.]

Past Videm: Come on, come on! Do we have everybody? Where’s Abby?

Past Abby: I’m right here, don’t worry.

[Past Videm opens the door and everyone runs through. Past Kitten runs through, accidentally shoving Past Videm out of the way.]

Past Videm: W—What the heck! Why do you keep doing that!?

[But Past Kitten does not respond, running away. Past Videm softly curses under his breath, running out along with the group.]

Past Vince: Where are we going exactly?

Past Videm: Uh, well. Anyone have a boat or a raft or something?

Past Vince: I do! *coughs out a blow-up raft* It’s a blow-up raft! Does anyone have a pump?

Epic: Uhm. I don’t think so.

Past Videm: No one has a pump inside of their bodies, Vince.

Past Vince: Well, I didn’t mean in their body…

Tiny: Guys, what about the forest?

Thefyo: Great idea! We should all split up, though.

Past Videm: What—no! That’s a horrible idea, do you realize how much chaos—

[But Tiny and Thefyo are already off into the forest.]

Past Videm: Why does nobody listen!?

[And so the group go off into the forest, splitting up into individual groups.]

[Past Videm and Past Abby are running through the forest.]

Past Videm: I don’t think we should run into the forest!

Past Abby: Why not? It’s the only place that’s safe at this point!

Past Videm: Well—it’s that—I, uh…

Past Abby: Come on, just say it!

Past Videm: Spicy and I were walking in the forest—

Past Abby: Whoa, whoa. I don’t like where this is—

Past Videm: It’s not—that! Spicy and I saw this strange woman with magical spells named Cherrie!—No wait, was it Cherrie or Chara? I can’t remember. Anyway, we met this woman—

[Past Videm and Past Abby run faster as they break the branches in front of them.]

Past Videm: —and she claimed she knew us, and that she tried to kill me in the bathroom!

Past Abby: What?

Past Videm: Crazy. I know, right?

[The two stop in a little area where there sits a rock. It was the same rock the original Videm rested on.]

Past Videm: I think we should be safe here. If we see him coming, we should run…

[The two lie on the rock, looking up at the stars.]

Past Abby: Shouldn’t one of us be on the lookout?

Past Videm: If they come, we’ll hear them. If we come, they’ll hear us louder, and if we run, they’ll be there.

Past Abby: …  O—Okay?

Past Videm: I just—wanted some time to rest and think.

Past Abby: Well, we are alone…

[Past Abby slowly grabs Past Videm’s open hand. She looks at him with sparkling eyes. He still looks up at the stars, and when she gets close, he looks at her.]

Past Videm: Uh…

Past Abby: You know… When I hear your laugh, it reminds me…

[Past Abby’s smile fades a little, but it regains itself.]

Past Abby: Well…

Past Videm: Well… what?

Past Abby: I just love your laugh, that’s all.

[Past Videm is too occupied to ask Abby to finish her sentence; he is looking up, seeing the stars.]

Past Videm: You know, sometimes, I think to myself, does a star ever die?

Past Abby: Well, of course. It’s going to die eventually.

Past Videm: That’s not what I mean. What I meantersay is; do stars ever fully dissipate itself from the universe? Science says its atoms merely convert into something else—even in black holes—but, perhaps, there is something that can cause anything to disappear forever, not leaving any trace of it behind. Boom. It’s gone and done for. Would it not be known or remembered, as its existence was only merely an illusion?

Past Abby: …

[They sit in silence for a few moments, as Past Abby thinks about Past Videm’s philosophy. All of a sudden, a branch is stepped on in the distance, creating a tiny crack sound. Past Videm and Past Abby bolt up, looking around.]

Past Videm: Did you hear that?

Past Abby: Of course I heard it, but what caused it?

[They get up from the rock, searching for any signs of the emitted sound, but none is to be seen. They continue to slowly walk down the path, shaking in fear.]

Past Videm: Guys!?

[No response.]

Past Videm: Hello?! Anyone? Spicy, Tiny, Epic?

[No response.]

Past Abby: I don’t think they’re nearby…

[All of a sudden, they hear a whisper from behind. They turn around in shock, seeing Morris with red, crimson eyes, holding a knife.]

Morris: And just where do you think you’re going?!

Announcer: WE’LL BE BACK AFTER THE COMMERCIAL BREAK

Announcer: AND NOW WE’RE BACK TO WORLD DANGERS

Past Abby: M—Morris!? What’s wrong with you? P—Put that knife away!

Morris: My name’s not Morris…

Past Videm: What’s with his eyes!?

[Morris? smiles gleefully and malevolently, raising his knife, ready to attack.]

Past Videm: Run, Abby! Go, hurry!

[Past Abby obeys, as he follows behind. Morris? sprints towards the two. The only sounds coming from the forest are the chase, branches crunching, and the breath of the three—one of which is hoarse from its determination—making it very clear the forest is far from silent.]

Past Abby: Videm!—

[Past Videm looks back, seeing Past Abby had tripped and that he had somehow surpassed her. He sees Morris?, still grinning, catching up to her. Past Videm dashes towards Past Abby, helping her up, but suddenly Morris? catches up, and slashes at the two. Luckily, thick branches defend them.]

Morris?: I’M COMING FOR YOUR SOULS!

Past Videm: Come on, come on!

[Past Videm and Past Abby successfully get up, just in time as Morris? makes way through the branches. The two run for their lives. However, they are met with a huge forest fire.]

Past Abby: What the—

Past Videm: Why’s the forest on fire!?

[They turn, only to see more fire, and Morris? slowly walking towards them. They look around for an escape, but see none. They hug each other in fear.]

Past Abby: T—This is it?! Is this the e—end?!

Morris?: It would and should seem so, my darlings!

Past Videm: M—My darlings!? What!?

Morris?: Ah, that reminds me. I need to tell you my true identity.

[Morris? grins even more.]

Morris?: I’m not Morris, but rather…

[Morris suddenly falls, as his eyes turn from crimson back to normal. A red mist covers the area, as a figure steps out: a lady with straight, long dark crimson hair. Her skin is that of a harsh winter, and her small, crimson lips cover her sharp fangs. Her dress is long and crimson, with several patterns of black strips. Her sharp pupils are as crimson as the sun at dusk, and her fingernails match it. She steps out of the mist, laughing malevolently. Her voice is that of a devil’s bride.]

???: Do you recognize my appearance?

Past Abby: Wh—Who are you!?

Past Videm: I—I saw her before! She was the same shadow who kept stalking me!

???: Yes… and, perhaps, you should call me by my proper name.

[The lady raises her hand, causing Abby and Videm to lift up in the air. They flail in the air while shouting for help.]

???: Valentia, the leader of the Crimson Mages!

Past Videm: Th—The what!?

Valentia: You heard me, you blabbering prick! You should know your future self is on my list!

Past Abby: Let us go!

Valentia: Not until you two are DEAD!

[Valentia cackled, raising the two higher and higher.]

Past Videm: Where are we going!?

[Valentia is about to slam them down, when someone comes from behind, knocking her down.]

Valentia: AGH! What is the meaning of this!?

Cheryl: Get off them you evil savage!
[The two start punching each other, while Past Abby and Past Videm begin to fall.]

Past Videm: NNNOOOOO!

[Past Videm and Past Abby try to reach each other, but their hands are too far apart, and so they are on their own, falling to their impending doom.]

[The present group are in the past mansion, searching for Videm and Catalina.]

Jeffrey: Videm!? Catalina!? Where could they be?

Madison: I have no idea…

Abby: I checked every bedroom, but I didn’t see any sight of them.

Isabelle: Perhaps maybe we should check on young Morris. We haven’t seen him either.

Young Morris: You called for me?

[Young Morris steps out of the playroom.]

Young Morris: I’m sorry, but I couldn’t find them in the basement.

Kitten: Wait, but I thought the basement was in the left hall, not in the playroom…

Sam: OOO GOT ‘EM!
Kitten: I will viciously slap you in the face.

Young Morris: Well, you must’ve been misinformed. The basement entrance is within the playroom.

Kitten: But—I—there was a huge stairway in the left wall in the present mansion…

Young Morris: Ah, you must’ve found my office.

Kitten: Wait—so that wasn’t the basement?

Young Morris: Definitely not.

[Kitten gives a confused expression, then a curious one.]

Kitten: Can you show us your other basement!?

Young Morris: Oh—well, I don’t know…

Kitten: Come on, please!

Isabelle: Last time you explored the mansion you nearly died.

Kitten: But that was the past, I’m sure nothing bad will happen this time!

Sam: That’s like saying a train has a 0.000009% chance to crash and let everyone on it die.

Madison: What…?

Mysq: The blonde girl is confused!

Abby: We have nothing else to do, so, perhaps we should go!

[Young Morris instantly bolts up.]

Young Morris: Ah—yes! Come this way, then!

[Young Morris guides them through the first basement hall.]
Sam: So what do you think is in the real basement?

Scarlett: Probably his real internet history.

Young Morris: W—What?

Scarlett: Oh, nothing. :3
Sam: I call dibs on any toy train parts if there are any down there.

Young Morris: Good luck, I’ve scrapped many train parts.

Sam: Why would you do that? D’:

Mysq: Indeed, why not simply burn the parts instead?

Isabelle: You can’t just burn train parts just like that.

Mysq: Why not?
Isabelle: There’s a scientific reason behind it.

Sam: *whispering* Science…

Jeffrey: Well… What is the gain of going into the basement?

[Young Morris gently puts his hand on a doorknob, shaking a little.]

Young Morris: This.

[Young Morris opens the door, revealing a huge, spherical room full of many gadgets and machinery.]

Sam: Something tells me I can make a train out of all of this.

Young Morris: This is my laboratory—or as I like to call it, the Labodome.

Vince: Labrador? I love Labradors!

Young Morris: And, in the middle, I have been working on a big project of mine.

Kitten: What is it?

[Young Morris steps up onto the middle stage, taking down a huge sheet that covers the project.]

Young Morris: It’s my dimension attractor. It’s supposed to direct any wormholes into this dimension—I’m planning it to be a sort of stop place for any dimension hoppers.

Sam: You mean like rabbits? I heard they hop dimensions.

Young Morris: Perhaps there shall be rabbits, but we’ll see. Also, it seems as though this machine has already attracted all of you to come here already!

Sam: So you stopped us from hopping dimensions, you monster!

Young Morris: But—I have to ask you. Why exactly were you going through dimensions in the first place?

Isabelle: We were testing out—um… well…

Kitten: Dr. Marv’s?

Isabelle: I—yes… we were pushed into the device by the future you.

Young Morris: Why would I ever commit to such a thing?

Isabelle: Future you was quite a—
Scarlett: FUTURE YOU WAS A BITCH!
Sam: REKT!

Young Morris: O—Okay…

[Kitten observes the machine.]

Kitten: Hey, this looks a lot like Dr. Marv’s machine to access any dimension…

Sam: You’re right…

Abby: That’s odd.

Kitten: How does it function, Young Morris?

Young Morris: You just flick this lever, and a few configurations later, the dimension will interfere with the wormhole. At least, that's how it’s supposed to work.

Kitten: We should try it, see if it works. Isabelle—did you know how Dr. Marv’s machine worked?

Isabelle: I—I do.

Young Morris: Careful—you do not know the results of its functions. Not even I know what will come through the rift.

[Isabelle then flips up a few configurations, then turns on the machine. It begins to build up, making a large humming sound, shaking a little. She stands back, unknowing of what will happen. Suddenly, the rift opens. The group looks at each other.]

Kitten: Are we able to go in?

Abby: Do we have a choice?
Kitten: I’ll go in first.

[Kitten steps up, jumping into the rift.]

Sam: NEXT!

Vince: You are so loud.

[Back at the present mansion.]

Past Videm: Wait—is that?!

[Cheryl suddenly sees the two falling. She widens her eyes, then jumps to save them. She raises her hand, slowing their fall. The two eventually reach the ground safely.]

Cheryl: Get out of here while you can! GO!

Past Abby: But—there’s no escape!

Valentia: Get back here you foolish sinners!

Cheryl: Leave the children alone! You’re the tyrannical fool!

Valentia: You were the first I tried to kill, Cheryl! And ‘twas for a good reason!

Cheryl: Why should I believe you!? You killed my sister!

Valentia: Your whole family’s a bunch of rotten bad apples!

[Cheryl’s fist clenches, as she glares at Valentia, who grins malevolently. Cheryl then runs towards her with all her fury. She fails to throw a punch at Valentia, and so Valentia hits Cheryl into the ground.]

Valentia: Now, if you shall excuse me, I have things to take care of.

[Valentia smiles, walking towards Past Videm and Past Abby.]

Valentia: Ah, two fresh lovers… You two don’t know what you’re getting into.

Past Videm: What?

Valentia: Haven’t you heard? The future you is going to break Abby’s heart!

[Past Videm stares blankly, while Past Abby looks at Past Videm.]

Past Videm: That’s not true! I would never break up with Abby!

Valentia: Ah, but of course you would! Take my words, you brats!

Past Abby: Wh—What do you want from us anyway!?

[Valentia steps closer, glaring at Past Videm.]

Valentia: To finish off what Morris started!

[Valentia raises her hand, ready to strangle Past Videm. However, all of a sudden, a rift appears behind her, and the present group begins to fall out of it.]

Present Kitten: Agh! Where the FUCK are we!?

[Valentia turns around, shocked, then smiles.]

Valentia: I see you’ve decided to join the party.

Mysq: The random people who look like the group have joined the party!  Their EXP will be on reserve!

Valentia: You peasants aren’t capable of surviving my wrath!

[Valentia summons a barrier around the group, and Kitten slams on it, attempting to escape. Suddenly, all of them are teleported inside the mansion, as the windows of the mansion start closing mechanically, and exit doors are locked.]

Present Kitten: Let us out you—

[Suddenly, she realizes who she is talking to. She widens her eyes, backing away, as Valentia’s red lips spread into a grin.]

Valentia: Hehehe… Ah, Kitten. Such brutal language you’re using.

Present Kitten: I—I—It’s you!

Valentia: V’ee…

Present Sam: What? I know I need to pee, stop telling me I have to!
Past Videm: What is Sam doing here!? Wasn’t he running!?

Valentia: Oh, Videm, Videm. You’ve been quite misinformed.

Past Videm: What are you talking about?
Present Abby: Hold on, is that—

Past Abby: Me!?

Present Sam: Oh god this is scary—wait…does that mean there’s another of all of us?

Isabelle: We may have caused a paradox…

Valentia: That’s right. You’re witnessing your alternate, past selves, but unfortunately, for you, there’s not going to be a lot of time for conversing.

[Valentia laughs like a maniac, then looks up at the sky, casting a huge spell. It creates several rifts, and the sky begins to turn into crimson red.]

Valentia: It’s time to fulfill the darkened fate!

[Several foreign creatures and alike fall out of the rift.]

Valentia: WELCOME BACK!
Jeffrey: This is Gravity Falls all over again…

Outro

[Present Videm wakes up with a headache.]

Videm: Ugh… where am I?

???: Videm, do you wish for death? For destruction?

Videm: N—No… who are you?

???: That’s good, because neither do I.

[??? reveals themselves.]

Videm: J—Jay?

[Catalina wakes up in a different dimension.]

Catalina: ¿Dónde estoy? [Where am I?.]

[Catalina stands, looking around her.]

Catalina: Este lugar…


Episode 18 - Los Ladrones de Victory

[Catalina walks down the street, looking around her.  The city she is in is barren of life.  She notices a sign in Spanish saying “La Tienda de Esperanza”.]

Catalina: La Tienda de… ¿padre?  ¡Padre!  ¿Eres aquí? [The store of… father?  Father!  Are you here?.]

[Catalina runs into the store, looking around.  Dusty products and tables fill the store, but no one is to be found.]

Catalina: Oh…

[Catalina goes to the cafe area.  She goes behind the counter, and looks in the cabinets.  Suddenly, she hears voices fill the room.  Looking behind her, she sees the store looking brand new, and full of customers.  At the front of the store is her father, and directly in front of Catalina is a younger version of herself.  A line of customers walks up to the cafe counter.]

Young Catalina: ¡Hola! [Hello!]

Customer 1: ¡Hola señorita!  Un café con leche, por favor. [Hello ma’am! I would like a coffee with milk, please.]

Young Catalina: ¡Sí señor!  ¡Llegando hasta! [Yes sir!  Coming right up!.]

[Young Catalina walks to the back counter with the coffee machine.  She completely ignores the older Catalina as she makes the coffee. After finishing, she places the coffee on the counter.]

Young Catalina: Está 5 Euros. [It’ll be 5 Euros.]

[The customer gives her the money, and takes the coffee.  The next customer walks up to the counter.]

Customer 2: Me pones los tallarines en forma de trene. [I would like train-shaped noodles.]

Young Catalina: Lo siento… No tenemos eso. ¿Quieres los tallarines en forma de… tallarines? [I’m sorry… We don’t have that. Do you want noodles in the shape of… noodles?]

Customer 2: *exasperated* Biiiennnn[Fiiine….]

[Young Catalina makes the noodles and puts them on the counter in front of the customer.]

Young Catalina: Está 6 Euros. [It’ll be 6 Euros.]

[The customer pays and leaves.  A bell rings as Catalina turns around to meet eyes with one last customer. She gasps and jumps, but then the customer simply walks through her and towards the counter.]

Customer 3: Hey, you speak English?

Young Catalina: Very little… what do you… need?

Customer 3: I need you to go on a date with me.

Young Catalina: P—Papá! [D—Dad!]

[Catalina’s father walks over to the man.  He grabs him and throws him out.]

Catalina’s Father: ¿Estás bien? [Are you okay?]

Young Catalina: Sí, papá… gracias. [Yes dad… thanks….]

[Young Catalina’s father leaves the store.  Young Catalina walks out to the center of the now barren store.  The older Catalina looks at her.]

Catalina: ¿Hola?  ¿Me oyes? [Hello?  Can you hear me?]

[Young Catalina doesn’t respond.]

Catalina: Oh… veo… [Oh… I see…]

[The young Catalina leaves the store.  Catalina follows her.  The young Catalina heads home, but is suddenly stopped by the man from before.]

Customer 3: Hey, we should really hang out.

[Young Catalina looks at him in fear, backing up slowly.]

Customer 3: At least let me tell you my name, just in case we meet again.

[Young Catalina doesn’t respond.]

Stephen: My name is Stephen.  That’s all you need to know.

[Stephen winks, and flees into a dark valley.  Nerved incredibly, Young Catalina continues walking forward.]

[Catalina is suddenly in another room.  She sees a heart monitor and an operating bed.  On the bed is her father, and next to him is the young Catalina. The beeps of the heart monitor ring in her ears.]

Young Catalina: Papá… ¿estás bien? [Dad… are you okay?]

[She puts her hands on his hand.]

Catalina’s Father: Catalinda… [Catalina, sweetie…]

[He softly grips her hands, smiling.]

Catalina’s Father: T—Tienes 19 años.  Eres una adulta ahora. [You… you’re 19 years old. You’re an adult now.]

[His coughs overpower the beeping of the heart monitor.]

Catalina’s Father: Ve a un colegio o universidad.  Vive tus sueños.  No te quedes aquí.  Por favor, linda.  Deja Barcelona, ve a Madrid.  Por favor.  [Go to a college or a university.  Live your dreams.  Don’t stay here.  Please, sweetie.  Leave Barcelona, go to Madrid.  Please.]

Young Catalina: Papá… no digas eso. [Dad… don’t say that.]

Catalina’s Father: Ya sabes que no puedes quedar en la tienda para siempre. [You know you can’t stay in the store forever.]

Young Catalina: Encontraré una manera de manténernos… no tienes que hacer esto… [I’ll find a way to support us… you don’t have to do this….]

Catalina’s Father: Estoy seguro de que tú podrías encontrar una manera, pero quiero que ten una buena vida. [I’m sure you could find a way to support us, but I want you to have a good life.]

Young Catalina: Papá… [Dad….]

[The heart monitor starts to beep slower.]

Doctor: Tienes que ir. [You have to go.]

Young Catalina: Papá! [Dad!.]

[Young Catalina is guided out by two nurses.  The older Catalina follows them until they are outside.  The young Catalina assures the two nurses that she can handle herself from there, and she walks home.  On the way, Stephen appears.]

Stephen: Hey, what’s up?

Young Catalina: I want to be… alone…

Stephen: Hey, toots, what’sa matter?

Young Catalina: My dad is—dead…

Stephen: Oh!  I see.  I think it’d be a perfect time for me to tell you what I do.

Young Catalina: Go away.

[The young Catalina starts to walk away, but Stephen stops her, pushing her against a wall by grabbing her wrists.]

Stephen: Y’see, I’m a thief.  Ladron, in Spanish, is it?

Young Catalina: So?

Stephen: I want you to join my gang of bandits.  How about it?

Young Catalina: You want me… to…

Stephen: Okay, okay, I know that your English isn’t fluent.  Just say yes or no, please.

[Stephen’s tone has completely changed.  He lets go of the young Catalina.  She doesn’t run.]

Young Catalina: If… I can… get money… t—to…

Stephen: You can get whatever you desire. I’ll make sure of it.

Young Catalina: Yes.  I… will join.

Stephen: Wait, you will?

[Stephen unexpectedly hugs the young Catalina.  The older Catalina awkwardly stands watching her younger self and this man hug, nonetheless filled with emotion.]

Catalina: *to herself* Stephen…

[Catalina is suddenly in another place, this one having the appearance of some sort of hideout.  Three people are gathered around a small fire: Stephen, the younger Catalina, and a third person Catalina didn’t recognize.]

Stephen: Louvre.  That’s where we have to go.

Young Catalina: Louvre!?  That French museum with the Mona Lisa?

Third Person: What?  How will we get in there?

Catalina: *thinking* [I remember Stephen telling me about going to Louvre, but… who is this third person?]

Stephen: Well, we’re going to get in like we always do—by being awesome!

[The third person sighs, looking over the brochure of Louvre.]

Third Person: Woah, this looks cool…

Stephen: What, the Winged Victory of Samothrace?

Third Person: Yeah…

Stephen: You know who that is based off of, right?

Third Person: Who?

Stephen: Do you know, Catalina?

Young Catalina: Isn’t it Nike, the goddess of… I don’t know the word in English…

Stephen: Victory?

Young Catalina: Right.

Stephen: Then from now on, just so you can learn the word, let’s call ourselves Los Ladrones de Victory, ‘kay?

Young Catalina: Okay.

Third Person: That sounds so weird.

Stephen: C’mon Misaki, what's your deal?

Misaki: Fine, but we need to change it eventually.  That's a really dumb name.

Stephen: Okay, we’re in agreement.  Los Ladrones de Victory.

[Stephen exits the hideout, with Misaki and the young Catalina following behind him.  The older Catalina begins to leave, when she hears a distorted voice call out.]

Voice: Catalina… are you proud of what you've done?

[The older Catalina looks around her.]

Catalina: Who is there?

Voice: Someone you forgot about, you disgusting being.

Catalina: Huh?

[Catalina suddenly appears in a new room, a huge office.  In front of her is the trio of bandits and an older female wearing a blue business suit and glasses.]

Female: What are you three doing here?

Stephen: Get out of our way.

[Young Catalina is holding back tears.]

Female: Or what?

Misaki: We know who you are, and what you’ve done.

[The older Catalina is confused, not recalling this scene in her memory.]

Female: Really?  Who am I, and what have I done?

Misaki: Your name is Merriam, and you kidnapped two of our members.

Announcer: Y AHORA VOLVIMOS A WORLD DANGERS

Merriam: Oh, really?  And who are the members I kidnapped?

Stephen: It doesn’t matter, now get out of our way.

[Stephen begins to punch her, when time suddenly stops in its tracks.  The old Catalina looks around her, and falls to the ground suddenly, as if she were punched by something.]

Catalina: Ah!

[A figure in black approaches the older Catalina.]

Figure: Hello, hola, bonjour, konnichiwa, all of the hellos to you, my dear!

[Catalina pauses suddenly, recognizing that greeting.]

Catalina: Is… that you… Stephen?

[The figure takes off his hood, revealing Stephen.]

Stephen: Catalina.  Catalina, Catalina, Catalina…

Catalina: Why?  Why are you showing me this?  And why can’t I remember those last two scenes?

Stephen: You chose to forget them, that’s why.  What, you don’t remember?

Catalina: Huh?

Stephen: Fine, I’ll show you.

[Suddenly, the two are in a cramped cabin.  Standing in front of them is an old woman, running some sort of store.  Five individuals enter the cabin: Stephen, Catalina, Misaki, a brunette wearing a red jacket, and—darkness.]

[Catalina wakes up in a bus stop.  Next to her is a teenager with bags at his feet.  For the first time, the teenager notices her.]

Teenager: Hey, where did you come from?

Catalina: Oh, uh—

[Catalina looks at the boy.  Suddenly, a rush of memories fill her brain.]

~Flashbacks~

Misaki: Both of my parents died, heh.  I guess it’s okay, they were crappy anyway.

Stephen: Hey, join us.  We could rule this city, practically.

[The trio is running through the Louvre museum holding a statue: the Winged Victory of Samothrace.]

[The scene switches to the hideout.]

Misaki: I can’t believe we lost the statue…

Stephen: At least we’re alive.

Young Catalina: Hey, did you hear something?

[A brunette wearing a red jacket is at the door.]

Brunette: Hey, can I join you guys?

Stephen: How did you find us?

Brunette: Someone told me about you guys.

Misaki: What is your name?

Reina: Reina.  Reina Plume.  I just lost my job, and I really need a place to go.

[The four are in front of a mansion.  They sneak into the mansion, but fall into a window accidently.  There is a teenager sitting on the bed, looking at them blankly.]

Teenager: Hello.

Stephen: You… you saw nothing!

Teenager: Are you guys, like, thieves or something?

Misaki: No!  We are… businessmen—er, women… er… both!

Teenager: Hey, you guys might wanna, like, leave… my dad might be coming.

[There is a knock on the door.]

Reina: Wegottahidewegottahidewegottahide!

Teenager: Hide under my bed.

[The group hides under his bed, and the door is forced open.]

???: You idiot.  When I knock, you open the damn door!

Teenager: Yeah, yeah. What do you need?

???: Someone is here for you.  I think she said her name was… Merriam?

Teenager: Oh, okay.

[Merriam appears in the doorway.]

Merriam: Sorry, this is very urgent.  I need you to come with me.

[The man leaves and Merriam closes the door.]

Merriam: C’mere.

[Merriam grabs the teenager’s wrist, and forces him to the window.]

Merriam: You have been convicted of several crimes.  You have no right to speak against me right now.

Teenager: Let… go of me…

[Reina comes out from under the bed.]

Reina: Let go of him!

[Reina tries to push Merriam out of the window, but Merriam grabs her and sends them both out of the window.  The group hiding under the bed gets up quickly.]

Young Catalina: What are we going to do!?

Stephen: We save them.  No man or woman left behind.

[The scene changes to the trio, who are just now killing Merriam by shooting her with her own gun.  They go into the prison and save the two others.]

Teenager: You actually saved us?

Reina: Of course they saved us.  They’re our friends.

Misaki: By the way, what’s your name?

Teenager: My name…?

Zeke: My name is Zeke Abel.  I’d be happy to join you guys.

~End of Flashbacks~

Catalina: Zeke!

Zeke: Huh?  How do you know my name?

Catalina: I… sorry… I shouldn’t talk to you.

[Catalina stands and starts walking away.  She stumbles as she bumps into a teenager with brown hair and glasses.  She apologizes promptly and continues going forward.  Time suddenly stops once more, and Stephen appears in front of Catalina.]

Stephen: So, Catalina, you remember.

Catalina: Yes, but…

Stephen: You remember that you’re a filthy bitch!

[Stephen summons a fireball and throws it at Catalina.  Catalina barely dodges the fire.]

Catalina: I was younger!  I didn’t know any better!

Stephen: Thanks to you, Misaki and Reina are dead.

[Stephen summons more fire and throws it at Catalina.]

Catalina: Stop!

Stephen: Why should I fucking stop?  You ruined my life, so I’m going to ruin your life!

[Stephen summons more fire.]

~Flashbacks~

Store Owner: What do you all need?

Stephen: We need a packet of wishing powder.

Store Owner: Wishing Powder?  That’s a very unoriginal one.

Misaki: Just give us the powder.

Store Owner: Alright, alright.

[The Store Owner gives Stephen a packet containing wishing powder.  Stephen gives the powder to the young Catalina while he gets out money.  He gives her the money and they leave.]

Stephen: Okay, let’s make the wish, right?

Catalina: What will we wish for?

Stephen: We wish for power.  Agreed?

Reina: What!?  I… I don’t want power.  I thought we were going to wish for peace for all of us.

Stephen: What are you talking about?  I thought we agreed we would wish for power.

Catalina: I kind of agree with Reina…

Stephen: I see… okay then.  Wish for what you want, then.

[Catalina begins to tip the wishing powder packet to make the wish, when Stephen suddenly pushes her down.  Catalina makes the powder come out of the packet and into Stephen’s eyes.  Suddenly, an explosion occurs.  After the explosion, the store owner stands above them.]

Store Owner: Can’t say I didn’t see this happening.

Stephen: What the fuck are you talking about?

Store Owner: Let’s see… according to my knowledge, most of Catalina’s memories will be wiped, Stephen will be trapped in time, and the rest of you… well, only time can tell.  Those are the results of Catalina’s wish.

Reina: Catalina…?  Why…?  What did you wish for?

Catalina: I wished… we would be rid of Stephen.  This is because of Stephen that we are in this mess.

Store Owner: However!  I kind of lied.  That isn’t wishing powder.  It’s just sand.  However, you dirty sinners are going to be punished regardless.  Catalina will keep memories of only Stephen, Stephen will be stuck in this dimension as promised, Zeke will lose all of his memories of this, and Reina and Misaki will die.

Reina: Huh!?

Misaki: Why are we going to die!?

Store Owner: Drama.

[Suddenly, Catalina blacks out.]

~End of Flashbacks~

[Stephen throws the fire at Catalina, who dodges it once more.]

Stephen: Just stand still and let me kill you!

[Stephen summons fire, when suddenly he falls to the ground.]

Voice: Catalina…

Catalina: Huh?  Who… are you…?

Voice: I am an old friend.  If I told you who I was, I don’t think you would be able to handle it.

Catalina: Huh?

Voice: Anyway, it’s time to go home.

Catalina: Home?  What do you mean?

[The area around Catalina starts to fade to white.]

Catalina: What’s going on!?  Please tell me who you are!

Voice: My name… is…

[The screen fades completely to white.]

[Catalina wakes up, and finds herself on the rooftops of Spain.  Teenagers walk by on the streets below, and she sees a younger version of herself talking to them.]

Teenager 1: Oh god, I’ve run out of energy… I gotta lay down…

[Teenager 1 collapses.  A younger Catalina approaches the group.]

Young Catalina: Hola, ¿como estás?

Teenager 2: Hi, that means ‘how are you’ right?  I’m fine, and you?

Young Catalina: Yeah, it means ‘how are you’.  I’m well.

Teenager 2: Let’s be friends!

Young Catalina: Friends?  Uh… okay!

[Teenager 2 goes over to the fallen Teenager 1.]

Teenager 2: Vince, can we keep her?  Please please please?

Past Past Vince: *swipes air signaling to go away and continues to sleep*

Teenager 2: That means yes! :D

Young Catalina: Yay!

Teenager 2: Yay besties!

[Past Past Vince yawns and wakes up.]

Past Past Vince: W—W—What happened? Who’s this random chick? *points to the baby chicken*

Teenager 2: I dunno.

[Young Catalina whispers to Teenager 2.]

Young Catalina: Your friend is really cute ;)

[The future Catalina jumps off of the rooftop, and the scene suddenly changes.]

Outro

[Catalina finds herself in a corridor she doesn’t recognize.]

Catalina: Where… am I?

Voice: Follow my voice… I’ll guide you out of this place.

Catalina: Huh?

[Catalina walks down the corridor as the screen fades.]


Episode 19 - The Waves

Videm: B—But, I thought you died!

Jay: Actually, I haven’t. I just managed to escape to another dimension.

Videm: Which dimension?

Jay: That I cannot tell you, but perhaps we can look over that.

[Jay helps Videm up, then they smile, looking like they had nothing bad to hide.]

Videm: What is this place? It’s so dark and cold…

[He looks around, observing the castle-like walls painted with green vines.]

Jay: This is where I reside—well, temporarily. I’m planning on building the next big thing! The House of the Gemeralds, how’s that sound?

[Videm and Jay enter through a castle-like door, and in it lie a variety of gold reflecting the burning torches of the chandelier. They walk down the crimson red carpet, touring the place.]

Videm: This is an amazing mansion!

Jay: Well, I wouldn’t exactly call it a mansion.

Videm: It looks like a mansion—

Jay: But it’s not.

Videm: Then how come it’s so huge?!

Jay: I—well—okay, fair enough.

[The two walk farther, conversing.]

Jay: How’s Abby?
Videm: Hm?

Jay: Abby—Abigail Williamson.

Videm: O—Oh, yeah. She’s just fine, why?

Jay: I—I was just wondering. You know… the whole situation between us…

Videm: What do you mean?

Jay: Well, she just, never talks to me again.

Videm: Well, she does talk about you a lot—er…

[Jay’s eyes widen with curiosity.]

Videm: Err… never mind. It’s—she doesn’t.

Jay: O—Oh… okay.

[The two end up at a golden, shiny elevator.]

Videm: Is it just the two of us here?

Jay: Yeah, I don’t have many friends—they come and go.

[Jay opens the elevator with the push of a button and enters, but Videm stands there.]

Videm: Where are we going?

Jay: It’s—a place.

Videm: A place? That’s very descriptive…

Jay: The rooftops.

Videm: What—why there?

[Jay ignores his question, as they’d already pressed the rooftop button.]

Videm: Okay, then…

[The two sit awkwardly. Videm looks at Jay strangely, who just smiles back.]

Videm: *thinking* Why are they always happy, even after what’s happened? And why are they taking me to the rooftops—unless…

[Videm looks up, widening his eyes.]

Videm: You’re my villain…

Jay: W—What?

Videm: Of course—it makes sense! You’re trying to trick me!

Jay: I don’t know what you’re talking about…

Videm: Back at the original dimension, we used to be friends, but I always disliked your crude demeanor.

Jay: It doesn’t change the fact that you took everything away from me…

Videm: Huh?

Jay: Don’t you remember Survival?

~Flashback~

[The past past past past group were in a circle, talking to each other, discussing what they should do next.]

Videm: Do you guys know where Jay is?

Spicy: No idea.

Vince: No, I only saw poo.

Videm: What? That makes no sense.

Vince: Exactly :D

Abby: I haven’t seen them, kinda glad I haven’t.

Videm: Hm…

[Videm stood up from the circular table, looking around. He picked up a blue shovel and bucket, looking at the group with confidence.]

Videm: I was hoping we’d do Survival, but since Jay’s not here, I guess I can make it!

Spicy: Sounds fun, I’ll join.

Vince: Ooh, ooh! Can I be the master!?

Videm: The—what?

Vince: Can I control everything!?

Videm: Um, no…

Vince: Why not!? D:

Videm: I don’t trust you with that kind of power. Remember what happened last time?

[The camera switched to another flashback, Vince stood on top of a high, lonely pillar, as Spicy and Videm climbed up the stairs to observe him.]

Vince: Who’s ready to have FUN!? :D

[Vince stretched out his arms, as a wood surface resized everywhere and out of the area the building was in. A few screams echoed in the distance.]

Videm: Vince! What the heck!? Stop using that glitch!

Vince: Oops, hehe. Oh well.

[The camera switched back to the original flashback.]

Vince: I promise I won’t do it again. I pinky promise!

Videm: Ugh, fine.

Vince: YAY! :D

Videm: Anyone else want building privileges?

Spicy: I’m fine.

Videm: Good. Now let’s GO! :D

[Videm raised his shovel in glee, as he attempted to run through the door. However, he hit it instead, realizing it had been shut.]

Videm: OW! Gosh darnit door!

[Videm quickly redeemed himself from embarrassment by going through the door correctly, then the camera quickly fades back to reality.]

Videm: I had a good reason! You didn’t want to do it anymore…

Jay: That’s because I was sick—just like all the things you’ve said about me…

Videm: You… I…

Jay: Look, the reason I was being so nice is because I wanted to look past it all! We can still be friends—

Videm: But—I have to kill you!…

Jay: Videm, you don’t need to kill me. Your feelings—I can sense them. You’re scared, confused, however—

[The elevator door then opens, and Videm looks out on the rooftop, surprised by what he saw.]

Jay: We can look past the past

Videm: I—you—how!?

Jay: Welcome to the project I’ve been working on for days, weeks, years…

[They walk up to the middle of the room, in which stands a huge portal with a rift revealing a verdant, hilly landscape, stretching far beyond.]

Videm: I—It’s the portal back to the original dimension.

Jay: It is, just for you guys.

[Videm looks down at the metal floor, then at Jay, raising his eyebrows.]

Videm: You really wanted to go back, didn’t you?

Jay: After we disbanded—at first I had envy—but I then hoped you guys were alright.

Videm: Even after what happened?

Jay: Yes, but, have you told the others?

Videm: Well—I…

Jay: You what!? Speak more directly.

Videm: I did, but…  I—

Jay: You’re not keeping secrets again, are you?

Videm: N—No! Well, yes. I mean—GAH!

Jay: Videm—what did you tell them?

Videm: I told them we got into a fight and so we were sucked into the portal—then me and Abby had our child switched—

Jay: You WHAT!?

Videm: I lied! I knew they couldn’t handle the truth!

Jay: W—Why!? Why’d you lie to them!?

[Videm could tell Jay’s voice is rising.]

Videm: Kitten—I mean—

Jay: Don’t… call me that.

Videm: I didn’t mean to, it was just a habit…

Jay: Let me guess, you told them about the mansion as well?

Videm: Well—more than that.

Jay: What do you mean?

Videm: We sort of—went to the mansion.

[Jay’s brows raise, then lowers with fiery anger.]

Jay: You risked your lives JUST to help HIM?

Videm: He made a deal with me. If I could take the group, kill all of them, and release the plan, then we’d go back to the original dimension.

Jay: This is a mess—this is—

Videm: I didn’t expect you to show up… not again…

[They hear a voice in the distance, shouting for Videm’s name.]

Jay: Is that…

[They hear more voices, as they become raspier and creepier.]

Videm: It’s my characters!

[An old man with a long, white beard steps out. His skin is shadowy black and his eyes glow yellow.]

Videm: G—Gelander?!

Gelander: WELCOME BACK, VIDEM!

[Gelander uses his wand, shooting out a quick, dark beam. The two duck, as the beam shoots past them, destroying the walls.]

Jay: H—Hey! I just repaired the walls, god fucking dammit!

Videm: Don’t worry about your goddamn walls, my imagination is turning corrupt! RUN!

[Videm grabs Jay’s hand, as they run past the portal, going through a trapdoor. More and more characters akin to the Gelander’s shadowy traits crawl out of the entrance of the room: a woman wearing a black dress, a man with a red scar across his face, and a clone of Jay slowly stepping out and grinning.]

Evil Jay: WHERE ARE YOU PRICKS!?

[Videm and Jay keep running, not looking back.]

Evil Jay: CHASE THEM!

[The three follow Evil Jay’s orders, heading towards the trapdoor that Videm and Jay went through.]

Videm: Hold on!—

Jay: What is it, Videm!?

Videm: I need to catch my breath. I’m not in shape!

[Videm put his hands on his knees, crouching and breathing heavily.]

Jay: Come ON Videm, I don’t care if you’re slow, we need to go!

[Videm turns, widening his eyes as the woman jumps towards him.]

Videm: HOLY—

[Jay quickly grabs Videm, as they run to the end of the hall, then down the stairs. Videm lets go of Jay midway.]

Videm: Is this normal!?

Jay: I wouldn’t call your imagination turning on you exactly ‘normal’.

Videm: That gives “let your imagination run free” a WHOLE new meaning—GAH!

[Videm strifes away from a spear that nearly struck at his arm; the man with a red scar had thrown it from the top. Fortunately, they are at the bottom of the stairs, and are able to run into the next room, which is full of papers and files. Jay and Videm quickly pick up a few boards to barricade the door, successfully blocking it off.]

Videm: I don’t know if magic can break wood…

Jay: We’re probably fine…

[The two turn, as Videm observes the place. He picks up a document, looking at it.]

Videm: What is this place?

[Jay quickly snatches the paper away from him, crumpling it and tossing it behind.]

Jay: I—It’s nothing. We have to find a—… shit…

Videm: Shit? We have to find a shit?

Jay: No! There’s no exit in this room! What idiot created this place?

Videm: Um… you did?

Jay: Oh yeah…

[Videm tries to read some more documents, but Jay picks it up, crumpling more and more.]

Jay: Why do you want to read these anyway? They’re useless.

Videm: Well, I just found out you got suspended in grade school.

Jay: Exactly, that stuff is in the past. Besides, I’m keeping this paper here so I can use it for the bonfire in the holiday I made up. It’s called, “The Day of the Future”.

Videm: Why would you want to destroy all of these good memories? I mean—c’mon, award for the 2008 Tennis Match? Picture of you and me sitting in the blue bucket at The Sandbox?

[Videm shows Jay these photos, who instantly snatches it from Videm, then throws it away.]

Jay: I cringe whenever I see or even think about it…

Videm: What? Cringe?

Jay: No—I don’t mean cringe—I just…

[Jay stares at Videm sternly.]

Jay: I JUST WANT TO FORGET THE PAST, IS THAT SO HARD TO ASK FOR!?

[Videm recoils, his heart instantly stopping, as Jay’s breathing tenses with anger. Jay slowly leans back from Videm, looking around, realizing they’d finally released their rage. Videm swallows, clearing his throat.]

Jay: I just… wanna forget… okay?

[The two sit in silence, as the only sound bouncing in the halls is the echo of Jay’s yelling. The air feels warmer than usual, and the light that was once faint, begins to light up.]

Videm: I—I want to as well. It’s just that—

[Videm walks up to Jay slowly, putting his hand on their shoulder. Jay looks back.]

Videm: Look, Jay. When I found you at my place, following Spicy, I didn’t know what to expect of you. I thought you were just any ordinary person. Abby said they were her best friend, and you agreed as well. I just went along with what they’d said, but—

[Videm raises an eyebrow with sorrow in his eyes.]

Videm: When you finally revealed who you really were, I knew you had the same potential as I did, and yet—we argued like crazy…

Videm: It didn’t stop me from not hating your guts, and I never wanted to forget what had happened between us.

[Jay raises their head, still turned away from Videm.]

Jay: I just want things to end, and get revenge…

Videm: I—I know you want revenge, and so do I. It’s just, we can’t do that without each other… Friends?

[Jay stands there for a few seconds, sighing, then turning and shaking Videm’s hand.]

Jay: Friends.

Videm: It’s good to have you back as yourself.

Jay: Alright, now how the fuck are we getting out of here?

[Videm and Jay begin to search for anything, tearing off the paper that was pasted onto something. Jay then finds something: a vault-like door.]

Jay: I found it! I don’t ever remember building this, but, I guess past me was ingenious!

Videm: Perfect!

[Videm and Jay begin crawling through the secret tunnels, closing the vault door from behind, as the camera is flooded with darkness.]

[Back at the mansion, chaos is rising. The wind orchestrates the sound of the sea, and the trees begin to timber. Inside the mansion, everyone is inside a dome-shaped shield, as Valentia and Morris walk in, arguing.]

Morris: You didn’t have to possess my poor, rigid body. I’m involved with this plan as well!

Valentia: It is none of your business that I executed it my way. You should be filled with joy that this plan even started.

[Inside the shield, they stare at the two figures.]

Past Videm: What are they talking about?

Past Abby: I—I’m not sure…

Vince: They’re probably talking about Gwen Stefani.

Past Vince: No, they’re talking about the latest episode of Porn Stars! :D

Vince: Oh, I remember that. That was weird though. You’re so weird, like, girl.

Past Vince: I’m you!

Vince: Ugh—whatever!

[In the corner; Minami, Omar, Past Minami, and Past Omar are talking.]

Past Omar: your dating a alien?!

Omar: She’s not an alien—

Past Omar: then wat is she

Omar: Not a human.

Minami: Guys, can we focus on how we’re going to escape?

Past Minami: I agree!

Omar: You only agree because that’s you!

Past Minami: No… actually—yeah.

Minami: Any of you have a knife?

Past Omar: WAT?!

Minami: Nonono—I’m not murdering anyone, I’m just gonna see if a knife can cut through this damn barrier.

Past Omar: yeah i have a knife

Past Minami: What the—why do you carry a knife?!

Past Omar: maybe someone try to hit me

Minami: Doesn’t matter—just hand it to me.

[Past Omar obeys, as Minami begins striking at the barrier, but all it does is make a pretty flash animation and block the attempt, which snaps the knife in half in the process.]

Minami: Dammit! What the fuck is this made of!?

[Spicy, Mysq, and Past Spicy are in a group talking.]

Spicy: Oh my god, you’re ugly.

Past Spicy: Hey, that’s mean.

Spicy: Oh wait, are you me?

Past Spicy: Wait—omg!!  You’re me!

Mysq: That’s you when you were younger!?  You were adorable!!

[Mysq pinches Past Spicy’s cheeks.]

Spicy: Why are you pinching my cheeks?

Mysq: ‘Cuz you’re adorable!

Past Spicy: Who is this?

Spicy: This is Mysq.

Mysq: I’m their boyfri

Spicy: N—NO!  He’s not.

Past Spicy: Wait, boyfriend?  Wait… what!?!?!?

Spicy: You’ll learn when you’re older.

Past Spicy: Huh…?

[Spicy pulls Mysq away from Past Spicy.]

[Valentia and Morris stop arguing, as they grin with the same, evil passion. They stare at the group from outside of the barrier. The whole group stares back, some with blank expressions, others with disgust and anger.]

Valentia: Ah, I see this group is doing very well!

Minami: Let us out you freak!

Valentia: Do I respond? Because you already know the answer.

Morris: You all should be thankful for this.

Isabelle: Morris? What’s gotten into you?

Minami: Yeah! You were always so secretive. Acting as if you were hiding something…

Morris: I—I don’t want to reveal anything. I’m afraid it will be too early.

Isabelle: Early for what!?

[Isabelle shouts, her hands trembling with pure anger.]

Isabelle: You killed off the only person I trusted, only to find out he was a fraud! You’re nothing but a coward!

Morris: You are the coward for saying love is a good defense mechanism.

Isabelle: I’m fed up with your secrets, Morris! GAH!

[Isabelle had punched the barrier, but it made no cracks. Isabelle slowly falls, crouching and trembling.]

Valentia: Not even the newfound power can help you from your mess. Now, Morris, shall we begin?

[In the back, Vince hears ‘newfound power’. He looks at his hands, as they begin to glow.]

Morris: L—Let’s wait. Just in case we execute it too early.

Valentia: The early bird gets the blood, Morris.

[Valentia laughs maniacally, as she walks out, followed by Morris. The door slams by itself, and so it falls silent once again.]

[Videm and Jay climb out of the side of the main hall. They grunt as they hit the floor. Picking themselves up, they begin to run towards the exit.]

Videm: Do you know how to get out of here!?

Jay: Trust me, I know what to do.

[When they get to the door, Jay quickly grabs at the handle, pulling it, then going through the door alongside Videm. They enter through, going further down the rocky, cave-like tunnel filled with crystals and gems of different colors. Jay stops Videm when they see yet another portal.]

Jay: This is the portal, I think.

Videm: ‘I think?’ What happened to ‘I know so?’

Jay: I—I saw the mansion one time I went through…

Videm: Then it must be the right portal.

Jay: You’re right. However, I—I don’t think I’m prepared to meet her again.

Videm: Come on, she’ll be glad to meet you. It will take some time to really believe the truth, but…

[Videm smiles at Jay.]

Videm: Kitten’s a great daughter, Jay.

[Jay looks up at Videm, then smiles back.]

Videm: Whatever happens—it’ll be for the best.

Jay: Are you ready?

Videm: Ready as can be.

[They both nod, going through the portal.]

~In the present mansion~

[Inside the barrier, Vince stands there with a white, glowing sphere in his hands. Arches of energy shoot out from the ever growing sphere, then suddenly the sphere explodes into a huge smoke, demolishing the barrier. As the smoke clears, everyone in the group is ducking except Vince, who is holding his hand directly up in the air.]

Vince: EXPLOSION! DEATH! GWEN STEFANI! ALL OF THE ABOVE!

Past Videm: Vince—er, that Vince! Now’s not the time.

Minami: Alright, we broke this barrier, but the mansion is still in lockdown.

Sara: Ew! What do we do then?

Past Minami: Should we have a plan? Or…

Scarlett: I have a plan, we should break through the glass! Any volunteers? Vince?

Spicy: We should use Mysq as a battering ram.

Alice: I agree.

Mysq: I disagree!

Vince: I agree as well.

Isabelle: H—How about checking all the doors first?

Scarlett: Too boring!

[After an exhausting amount of time trying all exits, they gather back together.]

Kitten: Well, that was a big fucking waste of time.

Isabelle: What about the basement? Isn’t the dimension attractor down there?

Kitten: That’s a really good idea, but do we know it’s still there?

Isabelle: I mean, how would all of those rifts in the sky appear? Didn’t Young Morris talk of the dimension hoppers coming here?

Past Kitten: So, does that mean you tarts have a plan?

Minami: Hmph, it’s good to have you back.

Past Kitten: What the fuck do you mean by that?

Minami: Nevermind.

Past Kitten: No, no. Just tell me, tell me what you had to say.

Minami: I just said nevermind…

Past Kitten: That’s what I thought.

[Minami turns to the rest of the group with a stern face.]

Minami: Let’s head down to the basement, then. Shall we?

Jeffrey: At least we sorta have a plan…

[The group sneaks into the playroom, through the secret hatchet, and off into the halls. The halls are much darker and colder than the basement of the past mansion.]

Past Videm: W—Where are we?…

Isabelle: The basement of the mansion. Morris from the past has revealed this to us after we were sent on a dimension expedition by Morris.

Past Videm: Um… what?

Isabelle: It’s too complex of a matter to tell. You must have faith in us and in our plan.

[Past Videm nods, as the group moves forward. They stop at the door, waiting.]

Kitten: Well… what are we waiting for?

Isabelle: I—I don’t know…

[Isabelle slowly reaches for the handle. Feeling the handle, which is cold from the misty air, she grips onto it, and begins to turn it. It makes a slight creak as it rotates. Isabelle then pushes the door, revealing the inside: the inventions and the middle stage, as expected. However, on the middle stage stands the currently operating dimension attractor. Large, resonating hums ooze from it.]

Spicy: What is that thing?

Kitten: Morris’s creation: the Dimension Attractor.

Scarlett: He sure does suck at naming things…

Sam: Get rekt!

Vince: Stop it Sam, just stop it.

[The group enters the room, looking around at the inventions lying on the table.]

Past Videm: This guy’s strange… Why would he have a golden rabbit that looks like it’s on the verge of dying?…

Abby: Aw, poor rabbit.

[Abby observes the golden rabbit, which is shivering in its golden cage. The golden rabbit looks up at Abby with its cute eyes.]

Abby: Look at it, it looks like it hasn’t eaten in days…

[Isabelle, Kitten, and Minami walk onto the middle stage.]

Minami: Did Morris use this to create that apocalypse out there?…

Kitten: But, Past Morris didn’t have any bad intentions with it. Did he?

Isabelle: He claimed this dimension to be the place where all of the dimension hoppers could stay, but…

[Isabelle looks sternly at the running machine.]

Isabelle: He must’ve known about the kinds of dimension hoppers that were going to be released. It didn’t seem like the Past Morris meant any harm.

Minami: Can we go through the machine’s rift?…

[Minami points at the machine’s shiny, white rift. Its texture is that of rocks, but its particles are made up of snow.]

Isabelle: Strange…

[Isabelle walks up to the rift.]

Isabelle: Ever since I saw the rift for the machine, I’ve always wondered what it was for.

Minami: Maybe it would take us back to the past mansion?

Kitten: Even if it does, why would we go back?

Minami: Maybe we can go there to ask the Past Morris about the recent events.

Isabelle: Seems reasonable. Then, should we enter?

Minami: I guess, if it helps us.

Isabelle: I’ll go first, then.

[Minami and Kitten look at Isabelle, nodding. Isabelle looks at the rift, walking towards it, when suddenly the door bursts open, and everyone turns to see Morris.]

Morris: STOP! Don’t—

[Isabelle’s head turns to see Morris, reaching out his arm.]

Morris: Whatever you do, don’t go through the portal…

Kitten: And why the fuck should we listen to you!?

Morris: Because, you don’t understand what’s really happening right now.

Minami: What’s happening right now is that the world is in danger!

Morris: The world has not been affected yet…

Isabelle: Yet? So you’ve been planning to dominate the world? Why do you want to do this!? What do you expect us to do!?

Morris: I said you wouldn’t understand. There’s nothing evil about my work!

Isabelle: Then prove it to us. Reveal your true plans, true work, and true identity!

Morris: I am a butler. My name is Morris, but I lost someone long ago…

[The group stops staring at Morris with anger, and instead, curiosity. Morris sighs deeply, closing his eyes.]

Morris: My… long ago, I had a boy of my own. We built this mansion with its owner, and planned on living there for the rest of our good lives…

[Morris opens his eyes with his brows raised up.]

Morris: But something out of the ordinary happened, something that corrupted me, that forced me to this tyranny…

[The camera switched to a flashback of Young Morris and his son, who was hidden by the shadow of the night, standing at the entrance door. Morris looked back at the entrance from the front steps, with sorrowful eyes.]

Morris: This is absolute madness, why do you want me out!? Nathan, I’ve done nothing but good for the people here!

Nathan: Don’t act like you don’t know what you’ve done…

Morris: I wanted to see what would happen- I was curious, and she—she forced me!

Nathan: Father—if you even deserve such an address, you could’ve killed us all.

Morris: Could have, but I didn’t—

Nathan: It’s not my decision, it’s his decision.

Morris: So that means you side with me, right?

[Nathan looked down at Morris.]

Nathan: Goodbye, Morris…

[Nathan then slammed the door on him, leaving Morris out in the dark, cold night.]

Morris: It was only one spell…

[He looked down at his hands, which were glowing crimson.]

Morris: And if I don’t practice… I—I’m going to be…

[He quickly shoved his hands in his coat’s pockets, quickly running into the forest behind the mansion.]

Morris: Why do you do this to me… why…

[He brushed off the leaves that shuffled in his face. He kept running with tears in his eyes.]

Morris: If only she—she…

[He stopped at a particular rock that was glowing from the bright moonlight. He sighed, then went up onto it, laying down. Looking up at the stars, he thought about what he was going to do. Suddenly, the leaves on the ground rustled, causing him to jolt up.]

Morris: Who’s there!?

[He looked around in paranoia.]

Morris: I—I have a gun!

[He looked around, then, in relief, found out it was only a rabbit that caused the noise.]

Morris: Oh—h…

[He looked down at the rabbit with a curious face.]

Morris: Hm, what is this?…

[He sighted below the scurrying rabbit a little hatch. He reached down, then unlocked it, revealing a little tablet.]

Morris: How curious…

[He then picked it up, looking at it. He reached for the power button, turning it on. It loaded up, revealing a few strange symbols and a woman dressed in a red, crimson dress.]

Morris: Huh? Valentia? What is this?

[The tablet suddenly turned dark, then switched to a screen of a man with dark hair and a rigid chin. He had a stern face on, and quickly adjusted the camera. He grinned, and cleared his throat.]

Man: Experiment #618, I’ve found some strange properties within the bucket. I only hope nothing bad comes out of it. Anyhow, I’ve been working on the shovel more, adding a select few items. Hopefully my partner can—what are you doing with the camera!? Stop it—*the camera goes static*—come on, I—*the camera goes static*—it’s all we have! We’re limited, I—*the camera finally goes static indefinitely*

[The tablet then shut itself off. With eyes and mouth wide open, he dropped it.]

Morris: It’s not—it can’t be. It… they…

[Morris got up, then clenched his fist and teeth.]

Morris: They worked on it without me…

[Unclenching his hands, Morris stared at his palms, it was turning red along with his anger. He clenched them once more, then ran over to the side of the mansion, yelling at the top of his lungs, he punched it, and so the walls went aflame. He recoiled, realizing what he’d done. The crimson flames quickly spread all over the mansion, and soon, the whole mansion began to burn down.]

Morris: I—no!…

[He quickly sprinted to the entrance, attempting to open the door, but it was locked. He shouted in frustration, then attempted to kick it down instead. He was successful in his attempts, as he saw inside being burned as well. He widened his eyes, then ran in.]

Morris: Everyone! Evacuate the mansion—now!

[He looked around, and saw the guests screaming, running towards the door. He looked around for his son, but couldn’t find him. He ran, avoiding the bright flames, towards the playroom. Swiftly, he opened the hatch, and jumped inside. Even the hall of the basement entrance was on fire, but that had not stopped Morris, who made his way through, and into the door.]

Morris: Nathan! Where are you!?

Nathan: Morris? Is that you?

[Nathan, who was on a chair on the stage, turned, looking calmly at Morris.]

Morris: What are you stalling for? You have to get out of the mansion. It’s burning down!

Nathan: Father—I…

[Morris avoided the wood that dropped down next to him, he stared back at Nathan with worrying eyes.]

Morris: Nathan, hurry up!

Nathan: I know you did this… you burned down the mansion on purpose…

Morris: I didn’t—well, not on purpose! Just, please—

Nathan: No father, I’m not getting out. I’m done with this place, done with my work, done with you… you never played with me, you just shoved me aside, and worked on your projects. These days you only travel around the world, and when you come back home— well…

[Nathan glared furiously at Morris.]

Nathan: You never welcomed me back home, and it’s time for you to pay up what you owed me…

[Nathan got up, wielding a silver sword he got from the floor.]

Nathan: Forever.

[Morris stared in shock, slowly walking back, but the debris behind him was blocking the way. Nathan got closer, smiling malevolently.]

Nathan: Of course, you’re too afraid to fight back. Weak coward, never appreciating your guests, and never doing anything to make sure you're loved…

Morris: Nathan—please, I can explain! I was in the forest, and I saw a tablet, and there was a video of you and him working on it without me! Experiment #618!

Nathan: Too fucking late. Your fate has been sealed by envy and hate.

[Nathan suddenly sprinted towards Morris with hatred in his eyes, but suddenly, the rift behind Nathan began to grow, and he began to get sucked into it. He threw his sword, attempting to kill Morris, but he missed.]

Morris: N—Nathan! What’s going on!?

Nathan: I deserve this… and you deserve this…

[Nathan closed his eyes, letting go of his own body, then he slowly faded into the rift.]

Morris: NOO!—Nathan, why did it…

[Morris fell onto his knees, feeling weakness in his body. He began to sob softly.]

Morris: If only… if only Alina was here, to see…

[Morris wiped tears from his face, but the fire had already dried it out.]

Morris: No… she doesn’t deserve that kind of treatment…

[Suddenly, time froze, as the fire began to put itself out, repairing the dimension. He got up off the floor.]

Morris: Huh? What is this? What’s going on?…

[He looked at the middle stage, and saw a little key. Curiously, he walked up to it, and picked it up. He looked up at the portal in front of him, the one that Nathan was sucked into, and back at the key.]

Morris: This key… it looks like it could fit into this…

[He gripped onto the key, ready to reach up and put it in, but once he did, it didn’t do anything.]

Morris: Why… doesn’t it work!?

[He pushed the key in harder, but it didn’t change anything.]

Morris: God dammit! PLEASE, WORK!—

[He tried turning it, but there was no dice. He began to sob more, and fell to the floor, weak with no hope. The air around the room began to turn cold, and silence darkened the room even more. He stopped sobbing after a few minutes.]

Morris: I just…  want to see my son again…

???: I can help…

[Morris opened his eyes, then got up, turning to see a younger version of Valentia.]

Morris: What are you doing here, Valentia?

Valentia: I came down here to see Nathan.

[She smiles cunningly.]

Valentia: I thought he was with you.

Morris: You…

[Morris got up, glaring at her.]

Morris: You caused me to commit to this dark magic. You made me burn this mansion down. You’re a sick, evil fool…

[She frowns.]

Valentia: What are you talking about? You’ve always wanted our powers.

Morris: But you never warned me of its potential dangers.

Valentia: Listen, Morris—

Morris: No, just—don’t talk to me.

[Valentia was taken aback.]

Valentia: I came down here, to tell you… I’m sorry for your ex-wife’s death, and that I loved you, but it seems like you don’t have feelings for anyone…

[Morris widened his eyes, turning to Valentia.]

Morris: Loved me!? Why—I’m flattered, but you’re just not…

Valentia: Morris, you monster… you fool—

[Valentia's eyes began to turn crimson red as she clenched her fists.]

Valentia: How dare you. After all the things I’ve done for the group, I used my magic to help build this goddamn place, and I made this dimension for you, and I resurrected your son for you, but you were never grateful, were you!?

Morris: Valentia, I—

Valentia: No, Morris… I will never forgive you for your loving sins…

[Valentia’s clothes began to turn into a crimson red dress, and she began to look more like her present self. Her face was furious and her eyes glowed.]

Valentia: F’ee,… ‘ee,ve.,’fee,’vee!

[Valentia blasted a shadowy, long crystal shard at Morris, but he dodged it quickly. He began to run from her. She chased him around the room, screaming at the top of her lungs. He sprinted and sprinted, but she finally stopped him by shooting a crystal at his arm. Morris dropped down, and Valentia hovered over him with an evil smile.]

Valentia: You turned me into this monster, Morris… and now… IT’S TIME FOR YOU TO SUFFER!

[Valentia charged up a beam, as Morris widened his eyes. He quickly got up, stabbing her in the heart with the crystal he pulled out of his arm. She suddenly stopped and slowly dropped. Her eyes began to flutter, but Morris only looked at her with wide eyes.]

Morris: I—I… V—Valentia…

[His voice was soft and he felt his heart stop. She laid on the ground, her whispers soft as Morris’s.]

Valentia: M—Morris… y—you… you don’t…

Morris: W—What?

Valentia: …hate me… do you?…

Morris: I…

[Valentia’s breathing began to get slower, and her voice was even quieter than before. Her eyes slowly closed and her hands faded into white. Her body went numb, and she laid there in Morris’s arm, as he kneeled down. He never cried out loud, but only dropped tears as he closed his eyes in denial. He sat there for a few minutes, before getting up and getting out of the basement with the key still in his bloody hands.]

~Back in the present~

Morris: … and I eventually cleaned the mansion to prepare for guests, hiring chefs, all while attempting to fix Nathan’s machine…

Kitten: Wow…

Isabelle: But if you killed her, how is she still alive?

Morris: Her soul never died, and when Videm came around, he made a deal with me, and…

Minami: Wait, Videm? What does he have to do with any of this!?

[Suddenly, rumbling begins to occur on the surface, and so Morris takes his chance while everyone is looking up at the ceiling, running to the machine.]

Isabelle: What are you doing!?

Morris: If you’d gone in, or messed with this, you would’ve disrupted the process! My son is still out there, and I’m not giving up after all my work!

Minami: Then release us from this prison!

Kitten: Yeah! Set us free, jerk!
Morris: No—all of this was to protect the gateway between my
son and me, and I’m never letting go, no matter how much it costs to fulfill the deals!

Isabelle: Stop the machine!

[Kitten quickly runs towards Morris, but he quickly raises his hand, causing Kitten to float in the air.]

Kitten: Ah!—what the fuck!?

Past Videm: He’s using his powers to fight back!

Past Kitten: No shit, sherlock.

Past Videm: Well, then! Look who’s talking, do you have anything better to do other than watch instead of fight!?

Past Kitten: I fight a lot better than you do!

Past Videm: No you don’t, you just curse and make a fool of yourself!

Past Kitten: That’s it! I’m fed up with you, bitch!

Abby: Guys, what are you—

Past Videm: All this time, I’ve always hated your attitude, and you piss me off to no end!

[Past Videm clenches his fist, glaring at Past Kitten.]

Kitten: Guys, you can stop fighting. I’m floating in the goddamn air!

Past Kitten: I don’t care! The only thing I care about is destroying Videm!

[Past Kitten runs over to Past Videm, who begins to throw his fist at her. They clash, but Abby pulls back Past Videm, and Minami pulls back Past Kitten.]

Past Videm: You’re annoying, you stupid prick!

Past Kitten: Ha, too good to swear, bitch!?

Abby: Stop it you guys, you don’t know what’s going to happen if you keep fighting!

Past Kitten: Oh what do you know!? You haven’t changed yourself, Abby!

[Abby only glares at Past Kitten.]

Past Kitten: I just wanna kill you, Videm. You know that!? You always end up one-upping me, getting the better vote in any situation, and you just get on my fucking nerves!

Videm: What did you say?

[Suddenly, everyone turns to see Videm and Jay standing at the doorway.]

Everyone: Videm?!

Minami: Oh, come on! Now there’s three Kittens!?

Past Kitten: Look who finally showed up. I’ve been waiting to diss on future Videm!

Jay: Was I always like this?

Videm: Look—I don’t care about you, Kitten—err, past Kitten. We found a way back to the original dimension!

Isabelle: But what about Morris’s portal!? He’s going to destroy the world!

Morris: Videm! Don’t listen to them, stick to our plan!

Minami: What plan!?

Videm: Okay, maybe… just maybe, I made a deal with Morris, in exchange for anything I had, this group would, uh, get a better future…

Abby: What!? I don’t remember any of this…

Morris: You haven’t told them the truth, have you?

Kitten: What is he talking about!? Videm, did the group actually get sucked into the portal by Kitten?

Jay: None of that ever happened… when Videm and I were fighting, he caused it…

Abby: You lied!? Again!?

Videm: Of course, I had to keep it a secret! I also lied about the vacation…

Morris: It was all a set-up, to get rid of your villains…

Kitten: This is confusing already… tell us the truth already!

Morris: We haven’t got much time for the truth, Valentia’s about to take over the world!

Jay: He speaks the truth.

Abby: But then why would you pair with Valentia if you killed and betrayed her?!

Morris: She would get the world if she gave me my son back, and that was it…

Jay: Wait a minute… Videm. Who is your villain?

Videm: Isn’t it you? You’re my villain, but we already made up, didn’t we?

Morris: Videm, Jay is not your villain…

Videm: Well, then, who is?

[Morris stares at Videm for a few seconds, before sighing.]

Morris: You are.

Videm: Sure I am, very funny…

Morris: I’m being quite serious, Videm.

Videm: Y—You’re kidding…

Morris: When we made the deal, you were greedy enough to do anything for your end of it, and, well, I warned you of the consequences.

Abby: What’s he talking about? What deal did you make!?

Videm: I—I… it’s a long story…

Morris: The portals I’ve created for the group, they held no actual rules, other than you must eliminate the opposing force that caused disruption with Valentia’s powers. Whether it’s an actual antagonist, or just the corrupt side of your self-consciousness. And you’re one of those that cause Valentia’s power to lose itself.

Minami: But how? In what way does Videm stop her?

Morris: She’s the spirit of love… and when Videm broke up with Abby…

[Morris stares at Abby.]

Morris: Well, you should, perhaps, know the rest of it.

Abby: But—I don’t hate Videm, I just…

Videm: No.

Abby: What?

Videm: You deserve to hate me, for all the things I’ve done—I feel guilty…

Abby: What do you mean?

Videm: Abby, just look at the situation right now! I lied to you and this entire group the whole time. I put you into a trap that killed my stupid roommate, and I—I didn’t love you, and I regret it.

Abby: But, Videm—

Videm: No. Nothing can clean up the mess I’ve created, and now the world’s in danger because of me…

Kitten: But you also did good things! You saved me from the mansion’s fire, you confessed the truth when it needed to be told…

Videm: That’s true, but not even a raven with rainbow wings can hide its inner soul.

[Videm looks at Kitten, then Abby.]

Minami: So what?! We should be fighting against Valentia and Morris, even if it means he loses his chance of getting his son back. They’re the ones causing chaos—

Morris: Don’t you understand? If I don’t get my son back, it would cause more chaos!

Minami: I know you’re lying. How could it get more chaotic than this?!

Morris: This mansion is no ordinary mansion. When the owner decided to build it, the owner intended for it to be the core of all dimensions, the one that holds all of the dimensions together…

Minami: So?…

Morris: So if these ‘villains’ do not die, and once this portal runs out, then it would release the true power of Valentia, and no matter how weak she would be, she would still be able to take down this dimension in a split second, and would cause the end of everything, the existence of existence…

Kitten: Damn…

[The group stands around, some looking at Videm, others looking away. Some whisper about the situation, others are silent.]

Videm: I know what I must do.

Abby: What are you going to do?…

[Videm walks up to Abby, handing her a little book. On the title, it reads “Heroes of the World.” She grabs it carefully, examining it.]

Abby: What is this?…

Videm: Our story… the origin of the group… I was going to give it to you guys earlier, but…

[Videm fails to finish his sentence, dropping silent.]

Abby: Why are you giving this to me now?

[Videm does not respond as he goes through the hallway of the basement, running without looking back. Some of the group run to follow him, some curious, some scared. Videm goes through the hatchet and out of the playroom. The sky is purple, as the sun is barely visible. He goes through the mansion’s entrance with ease, ignoring the calls for his name. He steps out onto the beach, face to face with the distant sun. He stands for a moment, then reaches into his pocket, getting out the white heart crystal. Holding it to his chest, he whispers a few words, and suddenly, the sun faints, the winds start blowing, and the waves start crashing louder and louder. The group stands at the entrance of the mansion, observing from a distance.]

[Videm falls to the ground. Silence falls upon the world for a moment. The group runs towards him, but his heart had already stopped beating.]

Abby: Videm…

[Abby stands there, taking his hands. She looks at his eyes, searching for a sign of life. Unable to come up with any words, she begins to sob. Kitten kneels down next to Videm.]

Kitten: I… c—can’t believe… it’s not true!

[Kitten stares at Videm in disbelief.]

Kitten: This isn’t right! Wh—… no, he’s not dead, he can’t be. He—

[Kitten stops, suddenly breaking down into tears right in front of everyone. A few members of the group stare at the seemingly gray sand, remaining silent.]

[Abby looks at Videm once again, sending tears onto his pale face.]

[The full moon had already started rising, only this time, it was brighter than ever. The waves start dancing in response, reaching closer and closer to the group. The group backs up, leaving Videm’s body on the sand. When the wave arrives, it takes him away.]

[Clouds start rolling in, along with thunders clashing in the distance. An evil laughter emanates from afar. The moon starts turning crimson red and the mansion starts glowing. The group looks up at the mansion, noticing a crimson figure at the rooftop.]

Valentia: How sad! A pathetic hero dies, but only my power recovers!

[Valentia laughs malevolently once more, as she raises her hands in the air.]

Valentia: It’s TIME to release the FINAL PHASE!

[The thunder grows louder as everything transitions into a red hue. The trees sway side to side as the wind pushes them to their limits. The group yelps in fear, as more rifts start appearing. The group quickly runs into the mansion as it starts raining.]

[Angry, Minami punches the wall, leaving a huge dent.]

Minami: HOW COULD WE LET THIS HAPPEN!? Dr. Marv’s death was one thing, but Videm held the key to saving the goddamn world! That fucking crimson lady is going to kill us all!

[Minami glares at Morris.]

Minami: And you too! If you hadn’t been so retarded, none of this would’ve EVER happened!

Madison: Minami, It’s alright.

Isabelle: We can still save the world without Videm, Minami…

Minami: I—…

[Minami slowly calms down, biting his lips in frustration. Sighing, he looks at Isabelle.]

Minami: You’re right… he did it for the best. Besides, if we saved the world once, how hard could it be to do it again!?

[Abby stares outside of the window, staring at the perilous storm and new, destructive dimension creatures.]

Abby: It won’t be as easy as last time…

Outro

Videm: Who do you want? I—I’ll do it, all for the plan.

Valentia: I’’f,, E’,v,e’

Videm: Shh… don’t say that!… He’s right here.

[The camera showed a child with black hair and blue eyes.]

Valentia: ‘ee,v t’ee, ,fee’

Videm: It’s risky, sure, but I will do anything to stop him.

Valentia: F’ee, ve’e, p’ov’fee, ,ee’

Videm: W—What about her?

Valentia: ‘eee ,vf’ ‘ee,fee’ ‘ee,

Videm: No! I—I didn’t agree to… *sigh* I—I know, you’re right…

[Videm looked at his and Abby's true child, who was vacantly staring at the unknown woman.]

Videm: This is it… Be good, now…

[Valentia hastily grabbed the child, who refused to go away from Videm. He only looked down with his hat in his hands and on his chest. He looked up at the child once more, who was crying for him. Tears ran down his cheeks, but he looked away to wipe them.]

[He never saw his child. Not for a long, long time.]


Episode 20 - World Dangers Part I

[The group stands on the front porch of the mansion, looking out at the storm. The rain’s impacts on the metal roof above them rapidly knell, which drown out the sounds of soft sobbing. Though, the roaring of the waves encroaching farther on the coast still overpowers all else.]

Isabelle: So, tell us, Morris. Why do you do the things you do? Knowing you risk everyone’s lives just to save your son?

Morris: I understand that you all are very upset, but this is important to me.

Minami: You and your son aren’t worth more than the world snapping in half.

Morris: You don’t understand; my son is more than just a human being! He has just as much power as Valentia, more power than I should ever sustain in a lifetime! They are the Mages of the Rubillion Falls…

Morris: It’s a very long backstory for the group, but if it’s worth your time—

Minami: We don’t have time! All of the dimensions are in danger right now. We need a plan of some sorts! Like destroying your machine!

Morris: Haven’t I told you? Valentia’s gone crazy. She interpreted my deal as a gateway to destruction! Destroying the machine is meaningless, and so are your arguments!

Minami: Look who’s talking! If you hadn’t been so oblivious of Valentia’s plans, then maybe we wouldn’t even be here in the first place!

Abby: Guys… we should stop argui—

Morris: I was hopeless! I tried everything to fix the machine, but the key wouldn’t work.

Minami: You should have at least acknowledged the fact that Valentia’s a monster…

Abby: We have to get to Valentia.

[The aqueous sounds are almost drowned out by Abby’s determined voice.]

Minami: Obviously, but how?

Vince: Where is she, again?  Sorry, I wasn’t listening…

Isabelle: She’s on the roof of the mansion, perhaps creating more destruction.

Mysq: Mysq equips an umbrella into his right hand slot.  +3 ATK!

Past Kitten: What the fuck?

Mysq: What?  It’s raining.

Vince: Welp, Mysq has turned into Scarlett.

Past Omar: why did you said it like that

Mysq: Because RPG.  That’s why.

Past Minami: Let’s just head after Valentia.

Minami: Morris? How do we get to the rooftop quickly?

Morris: If you wish, but be warned, you’re hopeless against a being such as Valentia, with what you have right now.

Past Kitten: No one fucking cares, we just need to get there quickly!

[Morris leads the group through the mansion. Everyone stops at a ladder.]

Morris: This ladder leads to the roof.  Valentia is just above.

Vince: We should make sure we’re ready, right?

Abby: Yeah, that sounds like a good idea.

~Omar, Past Omar, Spicy, and Syrz~

Omar: Hi, Spicy.

Spicy: Hey…

Syrz: Are you guys ready?  I’m ready to use my earth magic to literally—Catalina taught me that word—bury Valentia.

Spicy: I guess I’ll just support everyone as well as I can.

Past Omar: im going to kill her.

Syrz: Just kill her?  How are you going to kill her?

Past Omar: idk

Syrz: Okay… are you ready, Omar?

Omar: Yeah, I’ll use… uh… I don’t know…

Syrz: I’m sure you’ll know what to do when the time comes.

~Past Spicy and Mysq~

Mysq: Hey, kid.

[Mysq tousles Past Spicy’s hair.]

Past Spicy: Hai.

Mysq: Are you properly equipped?

Past Spicy: I don’t…

Mysq: Don’t worry, I’ll handle it.

[Mysq brings out a knife studded with emeralds of various sizes.]

Mysq: Mysq gives the younger Spicy a Princely Emerald Dagger.  Equip it now?

Past Spicy: Yeah.

Mysq: The younger Spicy equipped the Princely Emerald Dagger.  +45 ATK!

[Mysq brings out a knife for himself, this one having a green blade and hilt.]

Mysq: Mysq equipped the Royal Treasure.  +70 ATK and +100 Max HP!

~Vince, Alice, and Sara~

Vince: Oh god, I’m so scaaaaared Dx

Sara: Ew! You’re such a cat.

Vince: A cat?

Alice: Cats are quite beautiful creatures, and also quite cute.

Vince: Since when was this conversation about cats?!

Sara: We’re only talking about cats because you started it. >.>

Vince: *sighs*

Alice: Let’s just hope no one dies, I can’t stand the sight of blood.

Vince: Me neither, blood is disgusting Dx

Sara: Ew! Blood is like, so gross, like oh my god, G.R.O.S.S, GROSS!

Vince: Okay let’s just stop hanging the subject and prepare for the fight.

[The three nod their heads in agreement.]

~Jeffrey, Epic, and Madison~

Epic: Uh… what are you guys doing?

[Jeffrey and Madison are in a half hug.]

Madison: Um… we’re spending time together.

Epic: That’s weird.

Jeffrey: You’re weird.

Madison: Stop it.

[Jeffrey and Madison stop hugging and walk into a kitchen looking around for weapons while Epic follows them, trying to be noticed.]

~Past Videm, Past Abby, Abby, and Kitten~

Past Abby: I’m… sorry, that it had to be this way.

Abby: You don’t have to be sorry, it’s just…

[Abby looks at Past Videm for a second, then looks away.]

Kitten: I don’t understand… there he was, joyful for a few minutes, and now he’s…

[Kitten sighs deeply, looking at Past Abby.]

Past Videm: It feels weird, knowing that my future self just died…

[Past Abby looks at Past Videm.]

Past Abby: Well, as long as we have each other, it shouldn’t be too bad.

Abby: Are you guys dating?…

Past Videm: Y—Yes, indeed we are.

[Abby smiles.]

[Once everyone is ready, they go up the ladder to the roof.  Before the group is Valentia.]

Valentia: The heroes have arrived, but was it in vain?

[The storm grows stronger as everyone holds on in order to not fall.  Everyone draws their weapons.]

Valentia: Your group is a typo on a god’s machine.

Minami: Guys, we can’t afford to fail!

Vince: Mainly because I didn’t bring my wallet!

[The group charges toward Valentia.]

Valentia: If you fools desire a world without danger, then your fate has been sealed!

[Suddenly, a lightning bolt strikes as the screen fades to white.]

[The screen fades back on a dimensional corridor, and Catalina can be seen.]

Catalina: Huh?  Where are you taking me?

Voice: Your friends need you.  The world is in danger.

Catalina: What?

Voice: I can’t say much, but you will find out soon enough.  Use grief as your determination, and please let Spicy know you met me here.

Catalina: Thank you, Gratiana.  This is where I leave, now.

Gratiana: Goodbye, Catalina.  Just know, your villain wasn’t Stephen.  It was your fear of accepting your past.  But you overcame this villain.

[The screen fades to white, and Catalina appears on a street overrun with cars and people in a hurry.  The sky is a red hue, and a storm is ravaging.  In the distance, various monsters are attacking the city.  From the screams and signs, Catalina recognizes she is in Spain.  Catalina brings out her whip, as a monster confronts her.  It has a form that can’t easily be described, with a lymphatic azure body with a pair of giant bat wings.  Catalina strikes it with her whip, causing it to dissolve into a puddle of slime.]

Catalina: Tú monstruo asqueroso… [You gross monster….]

[Catalina runs through the city, against the crowds, attacking monsters that try to attack her.  Suddenly, she sees a group of people fending off against various monsters.  Catalina recognizes them immediately, and runs over to them.]

Catalina: Guys!  Is that you?

Abby: Catalina!

Catalina: Where’s our Videm?

Abby: He…

Mysq: We’ll inform you later!  Equip your whip and help us!

Catalina: Okay!

~Mysq and Spicy~

Spicy: What did I say?

Mysq: I don’t think you should be having one of your moods while we’re fighting stuff.

[Spicy uses a chair to knock a bat monster away from them, and Mysq strikes a skeleton, causing it to dissolve to ash.]

Mysq: Mysq has leveled up!  INT and AGI have increased!

[Spicy attacks a lion monster with their chair weapon, but is clawed to the ground by the monster.  Mysq stabs the lion and grabs Spicy, holding them.]

Mysq: Are you okay?

Spicy: I’m… fine—

[Spicy yelps and Mysq holds onto Spicy tighter, tending to their wounds.]

Mysq: I’m going to put you down, don’t try to fight.

Spicy: F… F…

[Mysq puts Spicy down, takes off his green hoodie, which reveals a green t-shirt, then puts the hoodie on Spicy.  Mysq then starts fighting the various monsters around the wounded Spicy.]

~Vince and Alice~

Vince: EEEEEK! I hate monsters!

Alice: Oh my, this does not look good. *takes out frying pan*

Vince: What the heck? You have a frying pan?

Alice: And you don’t?

Vince: Touché…

[Alice fights off most of the monsters with her frying pan while Vince slaps and pushes other monsters away.]

Vince: This doesn’t look good…

Alice: There are way too many of them!

[As Alice tries to strike a monster in the head, another monster strikes Alice in the chest, which causes her to get knocked down.]

Vince: Alice! Are you okay?

Alice: I—I’m fine…

Vince: You don’t look fine at all!

Alice: Vince, look out!

[Vince swiftly strikes all of the monsters behind him, trying to ward off the rest as Alice lay on the ground in pain.]

~Jeffrey and Madison~

[Jeffrey is trying to fight off a monster, but trips over a loose tile on the paved street.]

Madison: Jeffrey!

[Madison jumps on top of another monster and pulls it to the ground, stabbing it with a knife. She then jumps off of that monster to the monster fighting Jeffrey and stabs it to death, bumping it out of the way.]

Jeffrey: Thanks.

Madison: You’re welcome.

[Madison pulls him up and kisses him as more monsters come on either side. They work together to kill them.]

Madison: Watch it!

[Madison spins around Jeffrey and shields a spike with a metal cookie sheet she found in the mansion’s kitchen, then Jeffrey stabs the spike shooter with his knife.]

[After they fight most of the monsters in their area, they both are breathing hard.]

Jeffrey: Good job.

Madison: Same to you.

Jeffrey: Ready for more?

Madison: Definitely.

[They both run up the street a little more and fight more monsters.]

~Syrz and Omar~

Syrz: Take this!

[Syrz lifts a chunk of the ground and throws it at a monster running at her.]

Omar: Holy shit, that’s fucking cool!

Syrz: Thank you!

[Omar kicks through a monster door, causing him to get a gash in his leg.]

Omar: Oww!!

Syrz: Your leg!

[Syrz destroys the door with a large piece of earth and tends to Omar’s wounds.]

[Everyone runs around a corner and reaches a park.]

Catalina: Now what?

Isabelle: What is that?

[A figure comes out of a building, and approaches the group.  The figure looks… familiar to everyone.]

Sara: Ew! What the heck is that thing?!

Spicy: Huh!?

Catalina: Videm?  Is that you?

Mysq: Woah… does anyone else see a Spicy with long blonde hair and a sundress?

Spicy: What?

Jeffrey: Uhm what.

Vince: Is that… what the…

Madison: Why are they here??

Alice: Oh my…
Sam: I’m seeing Spicy!
[The person starts to walk forward, cloning itself and approaching each person as a different person.]

Catalina: Wh—What’s going on!?

[add POVs of characters and their fake romantic interest, preferably short plz.]

~Catalina POV~

Catalina: Why are you here?

Videm?: Catalina… I want to be with you…

~Mysq POV~

Mysq: So, uh… guy who looks like Spicy.  Why are you wearing a dress?

Spicy?: (has the voice of Catalina) Mysq, you’re my hero…

~Syrz POV~

Syrz: You can’t be the real Omar… are you?

Omar?: I’m glad I met you, Syrz…

~Jeffrey POV~

Jeffrey: A second Madison?

Madison?: I know you want me, Jeffrey. You can be with me forever.

~Spicy POV~

Spicy: Zeke… that can’t be you… is it?

Zeke?: I came back to be with you.


~Sam POV~
Sam: Sara? Where’s your Adam Levine cut-out?
Sara?: Ew! I don’t need him anymore! I want to be with you!


~Vince POV~

Vince: What the… Finn? What are you doing here? Are you just an illusion?

Finn?: I’m here Vince, I want you to be with me…

~Madison POV~

Madison: Ryan…? I thought you moved across the world…

Ryan?: Hi Maddie, I have found you and we can be together…

~Abby’s POV~

Abby: V… Videm?

[She starts walking forward towards the figure resembling the present Videm, who is beaming at her.]

[Every seen person says the same thing at once.]

The People: Kiss me.

[Abby starts walking forwards, when suddenly Minami pulls her back.]

Minami: Wait, don’t do it!  It’s a trap!

[Minami punches the one in front of him, and it turns into a monster.  Suddenly, every person seen turns into a monster and scurries into a group.  The group transforms into a giant monster.]

Mysq: Oh, god…

Sam: This is scary, but kind of awesome…

Minami: Guys, get ready!

[Everyone draws their weapons and faces off against the giant beast.  It attacks wildly, trying to hit the group.]

Mysq: Mysq attacks!

[Mysq hits the beast with his dagger, causing a small nick in its belly.]

Mysq: It wasn’t very effective…
Sam: I got this!
[Sam takes some sharp toy train parts out of his pocket and starts throwing them like shurikens.]

Sara: Ew, ew, ew, ew, ew!!!!!

[Sara slaps all of the monsters in her way, which surprisingly, is very effective.]
[add people attacking here if u want ;)))]

[Catalina uses her whip to tie the monster’s hands together, and brings it down.  The monster attempts to break free, but is held down by Catalina.]

Catalina: This one is for messing with my home country!

[Catalina sends a knife through the monster’s head, causing it to dissolve to the ground.  Monsters around them begin to dissolve as well.]

Abby: Is it over?

Minami: I think it’s just beginning…

[The group find themselves being surrounded by a light, and the screen fades out.]

Announcer: WE’LL BE BACK AFTER THE COMMERCIAL BREAK

Do you love tacos?
Do you love trains?
Do you love eating tacos on trains?!
Well then come on down to Taco Tracks to get your tasteful tacos on the tracks!

Faster Pax is here to give you more packaging deals and savings! Just gain another million dollars on your debt! We have faster ways of delivering packages like throwing it at the door, getting giant slingshots and dimensional portals that will probably delete part of the package. But that’s ok because with our safety first pax, you can get safer ways to travel like falling out of an airplane.

So get it now!

We are totally not ripping off Dasher Pax :D

Announcer: AND NOW WE’RE BACK TO WORLD DANGERS


[Everyone finds themselves in another city, with the same conditions as Spain.  Alice recognizes the city.]

Alice: This is Paris, isn’t it?

Mysq: Paris?  I heard about this place.

[Monsters start approaching the group.]

Abby: Not this again…

Jeffrey: Thinking about the first time we came here… maybe we should go to the Eiffel Tower?

Vince: Good idea.

[Alice leads the group through the town, attacking monsters as they go.]

[add groups again, fighting monsters n stuff.]

~Mysq and Catalina~

Mysq: I figured it out, dear.

[Catalina stabs a monster and then looks at him.]

Catalina: Figured out what?  And don’t call me dear.

Mysq: So, dear, those people were who we loved romantically, didn’t you see it?

Catalina: Yeah, I kinda figured that out.

Mysq: Who’d you see?

Catalina: None of your business.

Mysq: Well, I saw Spicy, but there was something I didn’t realize until just before I tried to kiss them.

Catalina: And what’s that?

[Catalina stabs an incoming monster.  Mysq does the same before he explains.]

Mysq: Apparently I not only have fallen for Spicy, but I have also fallen for you, which created the monstrosity that was Spicy wearing a dress and having your voice.

Catalina: That’s nice.

[Catalina binds a monster with her whip and Mysq takes its life.]

Mysq: It honestly makes no sense.  Perhaps we could have a polyamorous relation?

Catalina: A what?

Mysq: You don’t know?

Catalina: English isn’t my first language, please explain.

Mysq: Polyamory is having an open relationship where there’s more than two people in the relationship.

Catalina: I think that would just be ‘poliamor’ in Spanish…

Mysq: Oh, look out!

[Mysq kills a monster trying to sneak up on Catalina.]

Catalina: Ugh, thanks.

~Jeffrey and Madison~

Jeffrey: So who was this ‘Ryan’ character?

Madison: Huh?

Jeffrey: I heard you talk to it, you said Ryan. So who is he?

Madison: It’s… a long story.

Jeffrey: You can tell me, you know.

[Jeffrey jumps onto a monster and stabs it.]

Madison: I don’t want to talk about him.

[Jeffrey stabs another monster and lands in front of Madison, who looks into their eyes.]

Jeffrey: I know it shows who you romantically love. I saw you, but you didn’t see me. I wanna know what’s up with that.

Madison:  He’s—uh—I’m—

[Madison just stays silent and Jeffrey stops bothering her. They both continue fighting.]

[The group reaches the eiffel tower.  They enter the elevator, and start rising to the top.  Suddenly, the elevator stops in the middle of rising.]

Abby: What’s going on!?

Isabelle: The elevator stopped!

[Suddenly, a voice starts speaking over an intercom.]

Voice: Hello, contestants!  This is the newest game show, it’s called… Know or Die!

Mysq: *whispering to Spicy* How original…

Voice: Pick five of your smartest people.  If it helps, the five categories you’ll be faced with are science, the Spanish language, the French language, food, and common sense!

Mysq: Who are we going to pick?

Minami: Catalina for the Spanish language, and Alice for the French language, definitely.

Minami: And Isabelle for the science part.

Madison: I can do common sense.

Sam: Vince should do food *snicker*

Syrz: Why don’t you do it Sam?  You seem smart at food.

Vince: Yeah, I agree, Sam should do food.

Sam: Wait what!?

Voice: Alright, is everyone ready?

Sam: No!

Voice: Get ready to play!

[The five contestants are teleported out to platforms outside of the lift.]

Voice: Now, each of you have randomly been given a category.  If you get your question wrong, you’ll fall to the ground below.  If three of you get questions wrong, then the lift your friends are in will fall and they will meet their doom.  Now, you guys have three lifelines that are synonymous between all of you!  You can call a friend from the lift, get a hint, or you could pass the question to another person.  However, once you use a lifeline none of your friends can use it.

[A light coming out of nowhere shines on Isabelle, the first contestant.]

Voice: Contestant #1: Your question is for food.

Isabelle: Oh, no…

Voice: Name three street food items, one from Asia, one from Europe, and one from South and Central America.

Isabelle: Well, erm… Wonton Mee?  I think that’s how you say it… Crepes, and… Empanadas!

Voice: That’s correct!  Good job.

[The light switches to Catalina.]

Voice: Contestant #2: Your question is for science.

Catalina: Oh, god…

Voice: Which branch of biology deals with the study of insects?

Catalina: Uhh…

[Catalina looks at Isabelle, who nods.]

Catalina: I pass the question to Isabelle!

Voice: Alright, Contestant #1, what is the answer?

Isabelle: Entomology!

Voice: Correct.

[The light shines on Alice.]

Voice: Contestant #3: Your question is for common sense.

Alice: Okay…

Voice: If a doctor gave you three pills with instructions to take one every half hour, when will you take the last one?

Alice: Uh… three pills, take one every half hour… I’d take the last one…

Mysq: I know the answer!  Call on me!

Alice: I guess… I call on Mysq.

Voice: Alright, Contestant’s Friend: Answer the question correctly or Contestant #3 will take the fall.

Mysq: The answer is… an hour later!

Voice: Correct!

[Alice sighs in relief.  The light shines on Madison.]

Voice: Contestant #4: Your question is for the Spanish language.

Madison: Okay, I took Spanish in high school…

Voice: Conjugate this into the first-person present plural form: “disculpar”

Madison: First-person present plural…?  Uh… disculpamos?

Voice: Correct!

Madison: Oh, good…

[The light shines on Sam.]

Voice: Contestant #5: Your question is for the French language.

Sam: Oh no, oh no…

Voice: How do you say “How are you” in French?

Sam: Uh… is it… can I have a hint?

Voice: The phrase begins with “comment”.

[Alice brings out her phone, and texts Sam the answer secretly.]

Sam: Comment ca va?

Voice: Wonderful!  …I would say if you weren’t a dirty cheater.

[The platforms beneath Alice and Sam open beneath their feet, causing screams from both them and the group.  Catalina jumps to save Alice, grabbing her and catching onto a part of the tower.  Alice grabs Sam as he’s falling.]

Voice: Stop cheating, or the group gets it.

[The lift starts to fall, shifting slightly.]

Sam: Hey! I didn’t even look at the phone!

Voice: Then you can all blame Contestant #3 for your deaths!

[The lift starts to fall, but Catalina manages to tie Sam and Alice to a beam of the tower. She jumps down onto the lift, then opens a top panel, trying to figure out the wiring.]

Catalina: I don’t understand!!

Isabelle: Cut the red wire!

Catalina: There are two red wires!

Isabelle: Cut them both!

Catalina: What if—

Vince: Just do it!

[Catalina cuts both of the red wires, which causes the door of the lift to come open.]

Catalina: You all have to get out of the lift!  Just climb out!  Trust me, just take my hand, everyone!

[Everyone climbs out, then jumps onto a beam before the lift crashes at the bottom of the tower.]

Voice: NOoOOOOOooOOoOOoO!!!

Sam: GET REKT!!

Catalina: Guys, I think we’re teleporting again!

Alice: Where are we going?!

[Light engulfs the group once more, as they are teleported to a new place.  This new place is a much different city, with Korean text filling street signs and abandoned food stands filling the area.]

Sam: We’re in Vince’s hometown!

Vince: *slaps Sam*

Syrz: Where is this?

Mysq: Seriously, where is this?

Vince: It’s South Korea, where my mom and her six siblings came from :D

Minami: Monsters are coming!  They look… weird…

[The monsters have the form of K-Pop Stars, male and female.]

Sam: It’s Vince’s family, run!

Vince: Oh wow, you’re too kind. No actually, that’s quite flattering.

Mysq: I have no mercy…

[Mysq stabs a female idol in the boob accidently.]

Mysq: Oops…

Sara: Oh my god, it’s Chanyeol from EXO! I love your dance moves and you’re so cute!

Syrz: Cha—what?

Sara: You don’t know who Chanyeol is?! He’s part of EXO and he’s super cute!

Syrz: Well, I’m kind of from another world…

Sara: Oh right…

[As the two are talking, Chanyeol strikes Sara in the back.]

Sara: Ew! Chanyeol, you’re such a bad-boy!

[Syrz uses earth magic to crush Chanyeol’s head.]

Sara: No! Chanyeol! Not Chanyeol! How could you do this to me?!

Minami: Don’t worry!  They’re just fakes!

Sara: Oh, well I could’ve slept with that fake—I mean, hugged that fake!

Mysq: Looks like I’m not the only pervert in this group, Catalina.

Vince: *snrrk*

[Catalina sees a karaoke bar.]

Catalina: We can take refuge in there, and decide our plans!
Vince: Yay! I love Karaoke! Which karaoke bar is it? The princess one? The one that sells alcohol? The one that’s mostly Japanese?
Mysq: I vote for the one that sells alcohol…

Alice: How about the princess one? It must look beautiful.
Vince: People smoke in there and the owner of the bar threatened Spicy once.

Alice: Oh…

Omar: What about the Japanese one?

Spicy: That sounds fun!

Vince: Meh, never went to that one, but it seems weird.

Minami: We’re not going to have fun, we’re going to take refuge!
Vince: But we may as well have fun at a karaoke bar!

Minami: The world is in danger, remember?

Sara: Ew, screw the world, I wanna see my Chanyeol on the TV screen while singing along to EXO songs!

Vince: Oh god, maybe we shouldn’t go to Karaoke…

[Once the group decides on a karaoke bar to go to, they go in the karaoke bar.]

Catalina: Okay, what are our plans?

Vince: How about we have some fun and do some karaoke? :D

[Suddenly, a voice comes on an intercom.]

Voice: Welcome to…

Vince: Oh god what have we done going to karaoke… this better not be another quiz!

Voice: Killer Karaoke!

Sam: Sounds fun!

Vince: Oh god, is that the show with the rating of 5.8/10?

Mr. Host: I’m your host, Mr. Host, and six contestants will be going head to head in singing related challenges!

Sam: I VOTE SPICY GOES IN THERE!

Mysq: I SECOND THAT VOTE

Spicy: If I go, Mysq goes too.

Funk: I guess I’ll go…

Sam: If he’s going, I’m going too!

Syrz: I suppose I’ll go.  I had to put on a few concerts as the Orderan princess.

Abby: I’ll go, I guess.

Mr. Host: Very well, the person going first, is

Vince: I’ll be a cheerleader! Give me a T!
Mr. Host: Anyway, the person going first is Funk!
Vince: Rude…

Funk: Oh great…

Mr. Host: What song will you be doing?

Funk: Gangnam Style!
Mr. Host: Alright, your challenge is…
swamp swing!  You’ll be sitting on that swing while you sing, and you’ll be lifted into the air, and then periodically dipped into this pool of water here.  However, snakes will be added in, starting with smaller snakes, then bigger snakes, and then a python, to top it all off.

Funk: What!?

Mr. Host: Now, remember, don’t stop singing.  Good luck!

[Funk sits on the swing, and is lifted into the air.  He begins singing the song, periodically being dipped into the pool as snakes are put in.  He screams slightly when the snakes touch him, but he mostly sings.]

Mr. Host: Good job!

Funk: That was… so… grh…

Mr. Host: Next up is… Sam!

Sam: What!?

Mr. Host: What is your song?

Sam: Hotline Bling.

Mr. Host: … ok.  Your challenge will be… cactus maze!  You will have to sing while wearing a pair of goggles that will give the effect of blindness, and then you’ll have to traverse a maze of cacti until you get to the end wearing a bunch of balloons on you, where there’s money to collect for you.

Sam: Uhh… okay.

Jeffrey: What! He gets money!?

Vince: Give me an S! Give me an A! Give me a M! What’s that spell? SAM! Wooooot!

Mr. Host: Okay, you can begin!

[Sam has the blind goggles and the balloons on, and he goes through while singing and gasping as sand comes out of each balloon as they pop.  When he gets to the end, he reaches for the money, but there are snakes where he touches, causing him to fall backwards.]

Sam: AHHH

Mr. Host: Oh, so sad, Sam has lost the round.  He received none of the money, either.

Sam: What!?

[The cacti are pushed off into the darkness by an unknown force.]

Mr. Host: The person who will be going next is… Mysq!

Mysq: Oh, me?

Mr. Host: What song will you be singing?

Mysq: I’ll be singing Pompeii, by Bastille.

Mr. Host: Alright!  Your challenge will be… shock therapy!  You will have to bring a randomized person from your group different plates filled with food.  Easy, right?  Well, one of my assistants is going to connect a shock collar to your neck, and one to both of your arms, and two for your legs!  The shock will start out minor, and then will increasingly get worse as you deliver the plates.  Now, the randomized person who you will be delivering to will be… Catalina!

Catalina: What!?

Mysq: What!?

Mr. Host: What?

Catalina: He’s going to purposely throw it in my face!

Mysq: I wouldn’t do a thing like that, madame.

[Catalina is strapped by a belt to a chair with a table-clothed table in front of her.  Mysq starts singing Pompeii while delivering the plates, getting shocked and inevitably throwing food and drinks into Catalina’s face.]

Catalina: Ew…

Mr. Host: That counts as a win!

Omar: Wow, Mysq, you’re actually a really good singer.

Mysq: Thank you.  When I was still a prince, I dreamed of being in a band.  Of course, I was a prince so that dream had no chance of coming true.

Mr. Host: Alright, no one cares. Next up is… Syrz!

Syrz: Oh, my…

Mr. Host: What song will you be singing?

Syrz: I don’t know any Earth songs…

Mr. Host: Then sing whatever song you know!

Syrz: I suppose I could do an Orderan pop song…

Omar: You guys have pop songs?

Syrz: They sound nothing like Earth’s pop songs, but yes, we do.

Mr. Host: Alright!  Please give me the name of your song.

Syrz: Ariun amir.

Mr. Host: Would you mind singing the song a capella?  We don’t have the track for that one, obviously.

Syrz: I don’t mind.

Mr. Host: Alright, your challenge is… puppet master!

[A Spanish man comes out of the shadows.]

Catalina: Alejandro?  What are you doing here?

Abby: You know him?

Catalina: Yeah, he was my mailman.

Alejandro: Mi corazón es para bailar.  [My heart is for dancing.]

Syrz: Yeah, yeah, Romeo, let’s get this over with.

Catalina: Wait, you can understand him?

Syrz: You can’t?

Catalina: That’s not what I meant.

Syrz: Oh—right… I guess I just kind of have the ability… I’m not sure where it came from…

Mr. Host: Anyway, your challenge is, you will be put into a suit with Alejandro here, and you will be put through Alejandro’s dancing routine while you sing.  Now, I know what you’re thinking… and no, Alejandro is not single.  He is a happily married man.

Syrz: I wasn’t thinking that at all!

Mr. Host: That’s what they all say.  Anyway, you may begin!

[Syrz begins singing while Alejandro dances, causing them both to move.  Alejandro pushes a pie into Syrz’s face, among other things.]
Syrz: GRAHHHH

[Syrz continuously screams rather than sing.]

Mr. Host: I’m sorry, but you are not going onto round 2.

[Syrz pants heavily.  Alejandro is pulled into the darkness by an unknown force.]

Mr. Host: Next up we have… Spicy!

Mysq: Woot!  Go Spicy!

Mr. Host: What song will you be singing?

Spicy: I’ll be singing…

[Catalina runs over to Spicy.]

Catalina: Please wait!  I have to tell Spicy something!

Spicy: What is it?

Catalina: I met Gratiana, that sage who took care of Zeke and gave him the power to be with you… I forgot to tell you.

Spicy: I… r—really?

Catalina: And… there’s something I never told you, also…

Spicy: What?

~flashback~

[Episode 6, Catalina and Zeke are in Zeke and Spicy’s room.]

Catalina: Where’s Spicy?

Zeke: They’re getting ready to perform at the karaoke thing.

Catalina: Why aren’t you out there, practicing with them?

Zeke: I’d rather not.  They’re so much more confident than I am.

Catalina: Oh yeah, do you need anything?

Zeke: Er, yeah… this is going to sound weird, but if anything happens to me, tell Spicy…

Catalina: Huh?

Zeke: Tell them to stop acting like such a jackass to everyone they meet.

Catalina: H—Huh!?

Zeke: I should go now.

~flashback end~

Spicy: Zeke… you knew I would just pity myself without you… I’m sorry…

Mr. Host: OKAY OKAY OKAY You all are boring the hell out of me!  STOPITSTOPITSTOPIIT

Catalina: Huh!?

Mr. Host: STOPITSTOPITSTOPIIIT  IF YOU ALL WON’T PLAY MY GAMES, THEN I’LL MAKE YOU GUYS PLAY MY GAMES!!!!

[Suddenly, everyone appears on a merry-go-round-like circular panel.]

Mr. Host: Get ready!  You all must now face the final showdown!

[The circular panel they are standing on begins to spin rapidly.]

Catalina: Guys!  Hold on!  I don’t know what will happen if we fall into the darkness!

[The spinning becomes faster.]

Mysq: I’M GOING TO BARF

Spicy: I’M STANDING NEXT TO YOU PLEASE DON’T

Syrz: OH!  OMAR!  I SAW THIS COMMERCIAL!

Omar: WHAT COMMERCIAL

Syrz: IT WENT… LIKE A GOOD NEIGHBOR, STATEFARM IS THERE!

[Suddenly, a man wearing a State Farm uniform appears next to Syrz and Omar.  Once he realizes what is going on, he holds on.]

State Farm Guy: DON’T WORRY!  YOU’RE COVERED!

[The spinning stops suddenly, causing everyone to fly off of the circular panel.  The State Farm guy disappears, and Mr. Host screams.]

Mr. Host: YOU ALL ARE CHEATING LOSERS!!!!  WAAAAAAAHHHHHH!!!!!

[Suddenly, light engulfs the group.]

[Everyone looks around them.  Cars fly by (not literally you twit).  The city hasn’t been touched by the red hue yet.  Suddenly, Vince realizes where they are.]

Vince: Hey, isn’t this New York?

Spicy: You’re right!

Catalina: Isn’t this the place where John kidnapped Alice and I?

Alice: Oh no, not John… I hope we don’t have to encounter him…

Spicy: I doubt it.

Mysq: Who is this ‘John’?

Spicy: He was this crazed CEO for a place called Broadway Stars.

Vince: Also, Spicy fried his assistant.

Mysq: Interesting.

[Jeffrey looks over to Madison who looks at him back.]

Jeffrey: Remember when we met up here for the first time in almost forever.

Madison: Yeah…

Jeffrey: Something up?

Madison: N—No.

[Suddenly, it begins to rain.]

Catalina: Uh, oh… get ready…

[Monsters start approaching, but suddenly, every monster is struck by lightning, as light engulfs the group.]

Catalina: What’s going on!?

Mysq: I didn’t pack extra healing items!

Spicy: Oh, come off it with the RPG stuff!
Vince: Did we even bring any food or equipment in general?

Scarlett: I brought my umbrella!

Sara: I brought my magazines! And this cardboard cutout of Adam Levine!

Mysq: We all brought weapons!  Well, most of us.

Alice: Does anyone have a fire that I can cook food with? I have a frying pan I want to put to use. I’m also feeling quite hungry.

Syrz: I wish I had fire magic right about now…

Past Omar: y do you wear red if u arent fire

Syrz: I don’t know.

Omar: She can wear what she wants to wear.

Vince: Ooh, sassy fight between the two Omars…

Past Omar: u wanna go m8?

Omar: Yeah, let’s go m8!

[Suddenly, the screen starts to shake.]

Mysq: What’s going on!?  I’m going to barf again…

Spicy: AGAIN!?

[Spicy notices there’s barf on their pants from earlier.]

Spicy: EWWWWW YOU ACTUALLY DID IT!?

Mysq: Sorry… :(

Alice: You know, I’ll just eat some of this salad I packed from earlier. *takes out of pocket*

Catalina: Woah… WHOSE LEG AM I GRABBING

Mysq: Mine ;)

Catalina: AHH

Syrz: Omar!  I would call for the State Farm guy again but I’m worried he’s busy…

Omar: I don’t know what to tell you

Sara: Ew! I wish Adam Levine were here, because all I can do is kiss this cardboard cutout…

Vince: Everyone get ready for what’s to come.

[Screen fades to white suddenly.]

Outro

[A sweat-covered Morris is running through the halls of the mansion. He then stops at a blank spot on the wall, looking left and right. Raising his hands towards the spot, wisps of blood start swirling around, which then shoot towards the spot on the wall and reveal a yellow-and-blue patterned door. He then holds up a glowing crimson tattoo on his right arm towards his mouth.]

Morris: Enact Plan B. I will do what I can do to redirect them there.

[He then rushes into the door, which disintegrates shortly after.]


Episode 21 - World Dangers Part II

[The group ends up outside. They wake up, looking around, finding out that they are located inside a forest. Fortunately, they had landed in the middle of a pathway.]

Past Videm: Urgh… where are we?

Abby: Wait a second… I recognize this place… it’s our—err—my home…

Past Kitten: You live in a weird forest?

Abby: No, look!

[Abby points towards a decent sized home, towards which the gravel path is paved.]

Kitten: No way… but, how? Out of all the places, why here?

Isabelle: I think we should just stay to recover from the madness we’ve been put through…

[The group agrees, following the path and going onto the home’s porch. Abby then reaches for the doorknob carefully, grasping onto it, then turning it. The resulting actions make a click! noise, but she is not able to open it.]

Abby: It’s locked.

Past Kitten: Let me try, weakling.

[Past Kitten shoves Abby out of the way, then begins bashing at the door.]

Minami: What’s up with you? Why are you always pissed off at someone or something?

Past Kitten: Why are you always asking questions?

Abby: Guys—now is not the time to be arguing…

Past Kitten: Shut up, nobody asked you!

[Abby only glares at Past Kitten in response.]

Kitten: Would you just be quiet past me!? You’re kind of rude.

Past Kitten: Says me! I thought you’d be the leader of this group by now, but you’re such a disappointment.

Kitten: Would murdering this Past Kitten cause a paradox?

Past Kitten: Fuck you!

Kitten: You’ve just effectively fucked yourself.

Minami: Cut it out! I agree with Abby, we shouldn’t be arguing anymore.

Omar: Past Kitten should die in a hole, she’s so rude.

Past Kitten: Did I say you could talk!?

Omar: I just did, bitch!

[Past Kitten growls, then she starts slashing at Omar, but the group stops her by grabbing her. She shoves them off. Abby glares at Past Kitten once more, finally releasing her stress.]

Abby: STOP IT! YOU GUYS ARE FIGHTING WHEN EVERYTHING WE LIVED FOR HAS FALLEN APART! MY ONLY LOVER HAS DIED, ISABELLE LOST HERS, AND SPICY HAD LOVED ONLY TO RESULT IN NOTHING! HOW DO YOU THINK WE FEEL!? I HAVE HAD ENOUGH WITH THE DRAMA IN THIS GROUP!

[Everyone stands back, shocked. Past Kitten turns away. The group then stands for a good minute, while the sun begins to rise. Past Minami gets up.]

Past Minami: Does anyone have a plan to get in?

Vince: Nope.

Mysq: Yeah, I got nothin’.

Isabelle: Perhaps, Kitten, you know about any secret keys?

Kitten: Yeah, I do. It’s… just under that vase.

[Kitten points to a velvet-colored vase, the flowers in which had decayed. Isabelle walks over to it, revealing the hidden key. She then swiftly unlocks the door. Inside is a variety of furniture and decorations, just as any normal home would contain. The group walks in, some sitting on the couch, some standing around, just looking at things.]

Mysq: Does this place have wifi?

Sara: Ew! I just remembered that I need to update my Twitter! My five followers must think I’m dead!

Mysq: You would be dead if Spicy wasn’t holding me back.

Vince: Do you even have five followers?

Sara: Er… okay fine I lied, I actually have three, but, whatever!

Minami: Eh, who cares. I haven’t used Twitter in almost six months.

Alice: I don’t even have Twitter.

Sara: You are seriously missing out.

Syrz: What’s a Twitter?

Alice: I’m guessing it’s this type of app/website you use to do something called, ‘Tweet…’

Kitten: We don’t have wifi; the apocalypse is here, so I don’t know how we would.

Mysq: I was thinking of getting a job at one of those wifi provider places as a phone assistant dude, who you call when you have problems with your wifi.

Sara: MYSQ! I HAVE PROBLEMS WITH MY WIFI!!!!!!!!!

Mysq: What seems to be the issue, ma’am?

Sara: I have no bars.

Mysq: Are you near an internet modem or router, or some sort of internet provider?

Sara: Um… Abby, are we near a modem or router or some sort of internet?

Abby: I’m more concerned about people’s lives than the internet at this time.

Vince: Yeah guys, you should do things that don’t waste your time. Ooh, I have a life in Candy Crush :D

Catalina: Mysq, come here.  I have to talk to you about something.

Mysq: Yes ma’am.  I’ll be right back, ma’am, I have to put you on hold.

Sara: You never fixed my wifi! *throws random rocks and pebbles in Mysq’s direction*

[Mysq puts earbuds into Sara’s ears, playing elevator music and saying “You are on hold, I will be right back with you”.]

Sara: This person sounds like a perv.

[Mysq and Catalina are talking.  Catalina brings Spicy over as well.]

Catalina: So, I was thinking about the people we saw.  I want to discuss who we saw.

Mysq: You already know who I saw, I saw Spicy wearing a blonde wig and wearing a sundress.

Spicy: And I saw… well…

Catalina: It’s okay, we know.  Now, at first I saw Videm, which is obvious, but…

Mysq: Heh, butt.

Catalina: …

Mysq: Sorry, continue.

Catalina: After that, for some weird reason, right before the monster morphed, I saw him turn into Mysq…

Mysq: Huh?  Wait… what?

Catalina: It probably means nothing, but… I don’t know.

Mysq: It probably means we’re going to be lovers.

[Catalina slaps Mysq.]

Mysq: OW!

Catalina: You’re a perv!

Mysq: No I’m not…

Catalina: Well, that’s all I needed you guys for.

Mysq: Wait!  I just realized something…

Catalina: What?

Mysq: Catalina, you have blonde hair, and when I first met you… you were wearing a sundress, I think… if I’m thinking straight, I’d think…

Catalina: Okay, I’m walking away now.

Mysq: Wait!

Spicy: So am I.

Mysq: No!

[The three head back to the group.  Mysq takes the earbuds out of Sara’s ears.]

Mysq: Okay, you’re off hold.  Hello, my name is Mysq, what can I help you with?

Sara: Like I said before, I don’t have any bars!

Mysq: Alright, are you near an internet modem or router or other internet provider?

Sara: I don’t know, Abby never answered me.

Mysq: Alright, I’m going to send an engineer to your location.

[Mysq walks away and calls an engineer.  He comes back.]

Mysq: He said “Stop calling. You don’t work here”.  I’m not sure what that means.

Alice: Guys! Stop talking about having bars and the internet, we should find something to do as a group.

Sara: Well, if we get internet, we could contact someone.

Syrz: Isn’t the world in danger?  I’m pretty sure no one would be available to contact.

Sara: Well, we could call the police to shoot Valetine, or whatever her name is.

Catalina: I don’t know if you haven’t noticed, but the police can’t do anything about Valentia.

Vince: Geez Sara, haven’t you learned that Police won’t do anything in fictional things?

Syrz: I’m not sure what police are, but I’m sure they probably just aren’t strong enough to defeat a god-like being without having otherworldly powers, like some of us.

Sara: Ew, all I have to fight is a cardboard cutout of Adam Levine, oh and some fashion magazines.

[While the others are talking, Abby motions for Kitten to go upstairs. Isabelle observes them going upstairs, so she curiously follows. Abby and Kitten enter a bedroom, closing the door. Isabelle puts her ear up to the door, eavesdropping their conversation.]

Kitten: … hopeless situation. I—I never expected him to go.

Abby: I… know, Kitten… but we’re stronger than this.

[There is a slight pause.]

Abby: The sooner we eliminate the bad ones, the sooner our memories of him begin to solidify…

Kitten: You’re just like Videm, philosophizing about depressing things.

Abby: Why must you call him Videm?…

Kitten: H—He’s…

[Kitten goes silent for a moment.]

Kitten: He’s not my father…

Abby: … why do you think that? He’s cared for you, cheered for you, cherished you… loved you more than I did.

Kitten: Can’t you see?… He lied to all of us… Remember the boat ride in the amusement park?

Abby: I—yes.

Kitten: Remember when he said he’d promise to not keep any secrets? He broke it. Broke everything, and now… I don’t have a father.

[Things seem to go silent for a few seconds, when, abruptly, Abby speaks.]

Abby: Kitten… I just wish this group was back to normal, back to the original dimension…

Kitten: How do we know there’s even an original dimension? What if Videm had lied to us even about that?

Abby: I don’t know. We can ask Jay, perhaps.

[Isabelle hears rustling in the room, so she quickly goes to hide in the nearest bedroom, as Abby and Kitten, oblivious of Isabelle’s presence, head downstairs.]

[The group sits around. Some are talking privately, some are just staring into blank space.]

Past Minami: Hey, uh, guys?!

[The group looks at Past Minami, who is searching in his pockets. He pulls out a little hard drive with a USB wire attached to it.]

Past Minami: I found this hard drive on the shore, when—er—Videm passed.

[Some of the group stare perplexed at him.]

Past Videm: You robbed a corpse?

Past Minami: Well…

[Past Videm blankly stares at him.]

Past Minami: A—Anyway, does anyone have access to a computer so we can see what kind of files are on here?

[Spicy brings out a laptop from their satchel.]

Spicy: This laptop was from the mansion.

Past Minami: Neat.

[Spicy hands the laptop to Past Minami, who carefully sets it down on the coffee table in the middle of the living room. He then opens it, turning it on, logging in, then plugging in the hard drive. A prompt pops up, asking if the user wants to view the files of the hard drive. Past Minami accepts it, then a huge library of folders with unique names pops up.]

Past Videm: Whoa, how come there are so many folders?

Minami: Wait a second… isn’t that Vinny’s hard drive?

Past Minami: Who’s Vinny?

Kitten: That robot we fought in Dr. Marv’s dimension.

[Past Minami begins to scroll through the files, looking in random directories. Most of them are information already available on sites like Wikipedia. However, he then finds a folder named: “Fishtrought”.]

Jeffrey: Oh my gosh, Fishtrought is the name of the mansion. We should look through it, maybe we’ll find a weakness or something against Valentia.

Past Minami: Alright, I guess.

[Past Minami enters the folder, revealing a bunch of new folders. All are named dates following “MM/YY”.]

Past Minami: What should we click on first?

Minami: How about the first one? January 1987…

[Past Minami clicks on the folder, revealing a bunch of photos and videos. Some look like they are in a train, and some have a wrecked train in the distant view.]

Sam: Whoa, that’s a lot of trains.

Past Kitten: How the hell would a train relate to the mansion?

Sam: Well, there’s obviously a lot of train parts in the basement.

Kitten: Wait a second, Minami—err… Past Minami. Zoom in on that photo.

[Past Minami zooms in.]

Mysq: The younger Minami casts ENHANCE!

Kitten: Right there! Don’t you see that figure right there?

[Kitten points to a person in the picture close-up. The person has red hair with a facial structure similar to Morris. He is standing on a hill across from the train wreck, with eyes wide open, looking at said disaster.]

Past Minami: That must be Morris from the past, but that still doesn’t answer our question about the train’s relation to the mansion’s past…

Minami: Maybe there was going to be a train station next to the mansion?

Madison: That kind of ruins the mansion’s residents’ sleep, wouldn’t it?

Minami: Fair point you’ve got there.

Past Videm: If only Morris was here to clear up this confusion.

Minami: Wait, so you want Morris here?

Past Videm: No, I’m just saying…

Past Minami: Uh, guys. There’s some videos.

Minami: How would that make any sense? Nobody was there to record the event, right?

Jay: Cameras existed in 1987.

[Everyone suddenly turns to see Jay standing at the front door, arms crossed.]

Minami: Holy shit! Where the fuck did you come from?

Jay: I was behind you guys the whole time.

Past Videm: But why would you stay hidden?

Jay: I don’t know. I just like to.

Minami: You could’ve just warned us before coming in on us like that.

Past Minami: Do you know anything more about this, Jay?

Jay: Of course I do… Morris told me everything about it. The train wreck of 1987. They were headed to Boston from Washington D.C…

~Flashback~

[On a train, painted white with several patterns of blue stripes on the outside, people sat on the inside in their assigned seats, some looking out of the window, some talking about the holidays. The camera panned over to three people: Morris, Valentia, and an unknown blonde. Morris and the blonde were sitting across from Valentia, facing each other.]

Morris: Are we sure this is going to go the way it is? I mean—they haven’t even told us the location of the island.

Valentia: It’s your son. You should be able to have some trust in him, Morris.

Morris: Alina? How about you?

Alina: Listen to Valentia; you’re only worried because of the plane flight.

Morris: It’s not even that, it’s just…

Valentia: Alina here knows more than you, Morris.

Alina: Morris, it’s going to be alright. Once we get there, you’ll see it’s just your mind messing with you.

Morris: I just don’t see how we’re going to be able to build a tropical mansion in the middle of an ocean. It’s preposterous to even think about how we’re going to get resources.

Valentia: Resources aren’t a problem when you’ve got my magic.

Alina: Come on, Morris. Where’s the optimistic you? I know it’s in there somewhere!

Morris: I’m just not… feeling up to it now. I’m getting a bad feeling about this whole plan.

Valentia: At least we have a plan, and we’re not going blind.

[A few train signals were heard in the distance, while the train kept on rolling.]

Alina: It looks like we’re headed towards Delaware.

Valentia: How fun.

Morris: Wait—why aren’t we slowing down? What the hell are the damned crew doing up there?

Alina: Don’t worry so much, Morris. They know what they’re doing.

Morris: B—But…

Alina: Morris, it’s okay. As long as we have each other, we’re safe.

[But Morris’s heart only beated faster, going as fast as the train’s speed. Morris stared intensely out of the window, seeing another train coming towards quickly.]

Morris: We’ve got to take co—

[Suddenly, a huge explosion occurred, and everything flashed white right before Morris’s eyes. Alina’s words, “we’re safe”, echoed in his mind, from there on, and everything went black.]

[Morris groggily woke up, groaning from the train wreck. He heard a few screams and cries, but his ears were still ringing. He finally adjusted his eyes to see Valentia’s face right before him. Her face was filled with fear and tears. She grabbed him swiftly, shaking him.]

Valentia: MORRIS! Please say something! Wake up!

Morris: … I—…

[Valentia sighed, raising her hands onto his chest, which had somehow healed him. He got up, grunting.]

Morris: Valentia? What happened!?

Valentia: The train… it—it crashed.

[Morris’s eyes suddenly went wide-open.]

Morris: Where’s Alina? Is she well?

Valentia: I couldn’t find her!

[Morris and Valentia both turned towards the train wreckage that had happened. There were some people grabbing their children from the cargos, and some were just fleeing for their lives. Morris, without thinking, sprinted towards the train. Valentia followed.]

Valentia: Wait—Morris! It’s too dangerous, what are you doing?

Morris: I’m going to find and save her!

[Valentia then stopped, only observing Morris as he entered one of the train’s cargos. The camera switched inside the cargo of the train, where several bodies were found lying on the ground, some breathing, some weren’t. He quickly made his way through, looking to see if he could find Alina. After searching through two of the cargos, he finally found her.]

Morris: A—Alina?

[No response was heard; only her body laid there on the floor.]

Morris: Alina…

[Morris’s voice began to change to a melancholy tone. He dropped to the floor beside her, covering his mouth with both his hands, holding back a cry. The cracked windows on the outside were reflecting the sunlight as it began to shine like a spotlight on the two. Most of the screaming and shouting had stopped, and nothing else could be heard from inside the train. He hovered over her body, checking for a pulse, but there was none. He observed her, but saw no indications of blood. Morris sighed, then tears began to shed from his eyes right on the spot. He whispered, his voice sore from the disaster.]

Morris: It… shouldn’t have been you…

[Morris closed his eyes, when suddenly he heard footsteps behind him. He saw Valentia walk through.]

Valentia: Morris, I—oh…

[Morris suddenly got up, staring at Valentia.]

Morris: Please, y—you can heal her… right?!

Valentia: Morris—I… you know I can’t heal her…

Morris: Then…

[Morris looked at Alina’s body, which was peacefully laying like a baby deer sleeping in a shining forest.]

Morris: T—Take her… bury h—her… in the mansion…

Valentia: Morris, I—

Morris: P—Please…

[Valentia took a deep breath, as Valentia began to hug Morris, sympathizing for him.]


Jay: And that was it.

Minami: Damn, dude…

Jeffrey: I’m not crying, it’s just raining… a lot… on my face.

Madison: We’re inside…

Jeffrey: DON’T PESTER ME.

Mysq: Catalina, are you crying?

Catalina: I don’t cry.

Syrz: Well, I do… *tears are streaming down face*

Sara: Ew! That was like so sad Dx

Alice: Oh my… *tear streams down face*

Past Kitten: Whoa, wait a second? We were sleeping on top of a dead body this entire time?

Past Videm: That’s what we’re least concerned about, Kitten.

Abby: I… I—

[Abby simply goes up the stairs, turning away from the group.]

Minami: What’s with Abby?

Past Minami: She probably found that story too relatable…

Jay: Shouldn’t we go and make her feel better?

[No one replies, so Past Videm gets up.]

Past Videm: I guess I’ll go.

Minami: Videm—er… Past Videm, I don’t think that’s such a good idea.

Past Videm: Why not?

Minami: I mean—after your future self’s death, Abby’s always had a hard time looking at you. She’s probably still not over her grieving of your future self’s death, you know?

Past Videm: I… I guess you're right. Hey, what about Spicy—er, not you, our Spicy? I bet they could help.

Past Spicy: Okay.

[Past Spicy goes to Abby’s bedroom door and knocks.]

Past Spicy: Abby?  Are you in there?

[Abby goes to the door and opens it a little bit to peek out at Past Spicy. Her eyes are a little puffy, as she wipes her face.]

Past Spicy: Are you okay?

Abby: S—Spicy?

Past Spicy: Yeah, it’s me.

Abby: What are you doing here?…

Past Spicy: I came to check on you.

Abby: Is anyone else there?

Past Spicy: No.

Abby: Come in… please…

[Past Spicy heads in, looking around at the photos and portraits of Videm, Abby, and Kitten.]

Past Spicy: Nice room.

[They stand in silence for a few seconds.]

Past Spicy: So… how are you?

Abby: Not so well… y—you saw what happened…

Past Spicy: Yeah…

Abby: How’s the past group holding up? Any… secrets?…

Past Spicy: Uh…… well……

Abby: Will you, please, promise me something?

Past Spicy: Sure.

Abby: Don’t keep any secrets… for the sake of your relationships, for the sake of your friends…

[Abby stares into Past Spicy’s eyes.]

Abby: For the sake of the group.

[Abby turns away, picking up the book Videm wrote for the group. She sighs. Suddenly, someone calls for Abby’s name, and so the two head out of the room, heading downstairs.]

Jay: Abby! Come on!

Abby: W—What’s going on?

Jay: Some random lady just came in and everyone’s rattled about her for some reason!

Abby: What?

[Abby and Past Spicy run downstairs to see a couple of people crowded, blocking the victim.]

Vince: Yeah! And you still haven’t made me that macaroni and cheese!

Abby: Guys? What’s going on?

[The group turns, and they back away to reveal Cheryl.]

Cheryl: Ah, you must be Abby, Videm’s ex-girlfriend?

Abby: Y—Yes.

Catalina: How do you know she’s Videm’s girlfriend?

Cheryl: I know a lot of things, dear.

Minami: Oh yeah? Then where’s the mansion?

Cheryl: In another dimension.

Minami: That wasn’t very specific.

Cheryl: You wanna go to the mansion? Good luck, because there’s no way, at least to the extent of my knowledge, to get back to the mansion from here.

Spicy: Weren’t you part of the plan? You were the flight attendant on the plane.

Cheryl: Why yes, I do know the plan. But that doesn’t mean I’m part of it.

[Cheryl looks sternly at each and every one of the people in the group.]

Cheryl: And besides… not even I am prepared for Valentia’s powers. She’s fierce, and can strike at any time.

Past Videm: Then why would she just let us go so easily? Does she think we’re that worthless?

[Cheryl turns to Past Videm.]

Cheryl: Oh, trust me. If she leaves you be, that means she definitely has plans for you.

Minami: Wait, how do you guys know this person?

Vince: Well, okay. This rude person came up to us in a plane and went all like “I’M KICKING YOU OUT MUAHAHAHA” and then we jumped out of a plane :D

Spicy: That’s… surprisingly accurate…

Minami: Wait, if you’re trying to get rid of them, then why would you come here of all places?

Cheryl: I didn’t intend on getting rid of you. No, it was in fact more than that. You see, I tried to poison and injure every single one of you so I had time to get to you guys when Morris executed his plans.

Past Videm: How does that make any sense?

Cheryl: Look, I had no other way. I snuck into the plane and acted as a flight attendant. I couldn’t get onto the island since I feared Morris was going to catch me. Plus, I had no way of surviving on that island alone.

Omar: Yeah, because you’re weak!

Sam: REKT!!!!

Cheryl: Shut the hell up, I can snap your neck into three pieces.

Past Minami: You had a past with Valentia, right?

Cheryl: I wish I didn’t.

Past Minami: Can’t you tell us her weakness or something?

Cheryl: Well…

[Cheryl thinks for a moment.]

Cheryl: When Valentia murdered my father, I felt sorrow, hatred, and fear. Yet, when I was near my sister that I loved dearly, there was some strange force that kept Valentia from being able to get to us. That was, until she sneaked up on my sister and recklessly killed her.

Minami: Damn…

Cheryl: And, your poor poor Videm. He had to sacrifice himself, which made Valentia stronger.

Minami: So then why would he do it?

Cheryl: He had no other choice. You see, if each dimension had their villains free willy and nilly, the fabric of the universe would become unstable to the point of a reverse big bang.

Past Vince: The universe is made of fabric? :D

Cheryl: What is this freakishly grown child that’s speaking to me?
Vince: You’re so rude to my past self! Actually, yeah he’s pretty weird.

Cheryl: Alright, any more questions to waste time while this world burns into its fiery fate?

Madison: Um. No ma’am.

Cheryl: Don’t you dare call me ma’am! Goddamn I hate it when people call me that!

Madison: Sorry…

[Madison kinda just looks away, embarrassed.]

Isabelle: How do you know this world’s fate is going to get a bad ending?

[The group turns around, as Isabelle suddenly appears.]

Minami: Fuck man! Stop appearing out of nowhere people!

Isabelle: I have a plan on how we’re going to be able to defeat Valentia.

[Cheryl laughs mockingly.]

Cheryl: Oh yeah, and what’s your ‘genius’ plan!?

Isabelle: This!

[Isabelle holds up the same white heart crystal Videm used to kill himself.]

Abby: W—What!? How’d you get that!?

Isabelle: You put it in Videm’s bedroom…

Cheryl: How’s that thing going to help us?

Isabelle: Remember how Dr. Marv told us these hearts were important for saving the world?

Jeffrey: Yeah…

Isabelle: I think I’ve figured out how these heart crystals can help us. Look, if we can collect enough of these heart crystals, we can release the souls of said villains to finally finish off Valentia.

[Isabelle eyes over the whole group.]

Isabelle: Who else has any of the heart crystals?

Kitten: I do!

[She smiles as she takes out a green heart crystal.]

Abby: I do too.

[Abby takes out a yellow one.]

Catalina: I have two.

[Catalina takes out two heart crystals, one purple and another aqua.]

Kitten: Pssh, show-off.

Isabelle: We’re just missing five: pink, orange, black, blue, and red—though, red hasn’t been found in centuries. However, from Dr. Marv’s and my research, five should be enough anyway.

Past Videm: I think—

[Past Videm slightly raises his arm, about to say something, but lowers it back down.]

Past Videm: N—Nevermind. I forgot.

Minami: Well, then what are we waiting for? We’ve got a plan!

Cheryl: Hah, feeding off of optimism! Pathetic, you think you can just use these “magical” heart crystals to overpower Valentia!?

[Cheryl glares at Isabelle.]

Cheryl: She is much more powerful than you think she is.

Isabelle: And what do you know? Do you have a plan?

Cheryl: Yeah, I have a plan. TO. GIVE. UP. She’s won, we’re done. The end.

Minami: Well if we know we’re going to die, we might as well try…

Cheryl: It’s pointless. I see no glory in trying.

Past Kitten: Hey, shut the fuck up! They actually have a plan unlike you!

[Cheryl only grunts in response to Past Kitten’s comment.]

Isabelle: Well, who’s with me?

[Everyone but Cheryl agrees to the plan, and so they head out of the house, looking at the sky, which is dark and filled with crimson tones. There are already many rifts leaking.]

Minami: Oh man, look how much this place was fucked up!

Kitten: Don’t worry guys, we’ve got this…

Past Minami: Now, how do we get to the mansion dimension?

Isabelle: I looked through Young Morris’s folders, and it seems as though the Dimension Attractor opens a rift from any dimension to it as long as we build a special portal…

Jay: Great. And, uh, how exactly do we build this portal?

Isabelle: We simply need a lot of titanium, some steel, lots of compressed carbon, and—

Minami: Are there any other methods?

Isabelle: Well, we can use these heart crystals to transport to the dimension.

Past Videm: But there are only 5 of them, and there are like 20 of us.

Isabelle: We can just hold hands.

Past Abby: But doesn’t that only happen in the movies?

Isabelle: It’s magic; don’t question its foreign properties. Now, shall we?

[Everyone agrees, holding hands in a circle. Some are holding a heart crystal, and Isabelle holds out the white heart crystal, which causes a huge, white beam to light up, then a bright flash fills the camera.]

~At the mansion~

Past Videm: Oh god, why are we falling in a white void!?

Kitten: Don’t worry, this is normal.

Valentia: Visitors, I hear?

Vince: Oh my god, we can actually understand her now.

Valentia: You truly think you are capable of defeating a being such as me!?

Minami: With what we have, we can only hope.

Past Kitten: He means we’re gonna kick your—

[Suddenly the white void turns dark, and the group wakes up on the mansion’s beach.]

Announcer: AND NOW WE’RE BACK TO WORLD DANGERS

Past Videm: Here we are…

Minami: I guess this is it…

[The group looks up at the stormy skies, which have bright red thunders lighting up the illuminating, bloody moon covered beneath the dark clouds. They look up at the mansion once more, seeing all of the chaos. They swiftly enter and manage to get onto the roof through the hatchet. Valentia turns, grinning in anticipation.]

Valentia: I guess the Grim Reaper really wanted your soul.

Isabelle: *whispers to the group* Alright, distract her while I get these heart crystals ready.

[The group runs to Valentia, who laughs malevolently.]

~Battle~

[Catalina draws her whip and attempts to attack Valentia.  Mysq backs her up by throwing a knife at Valentia. This ultimately fails as Valentia pushes them with force. They both fall to the ground, and so does the knife and the whip, which begins to become animate by Valentia’s magic and starts flying towards them.]

[Minami and Past Minami, who are side by side, sprint towards Valentia. Minami lowers himself while Past Minami hops onto him. Minami boosts him into the air, then Past Minami does a flip right onto Valentia, but misses as wisps of faint, blood-like particles float in her original place, while Valentia stands a few paces from where she originally was.]

Minami: Shit!

[Minami runs towards Valentia, who glares at him with her fiery crimson eyes. Her stare hurts him physically, as he kneels in pain. She grins even more.]

[Scarlett and Kitten also run towards Valentia, holding an umbrella in front of them as a sort of shield. However, when they reach Valentia, she starts raising them up into the air. The two grip onto the umbrella, while Kitten begins to use the umbrella to boost her off from Valentia’s force, successfully kicking her. Unfortunately, it does not do any damage. Scarlett falls, but luckily Kitten breaks her fall by catching her.]

[Vince, Alice, and Sara run toward Valentia. Vince slams his body into Valentia, which catches her by surprise at first, but she retaliates using her magic, which makes Vince fall back. Sara is screaming random things while hitting Valentia with her Adam Levine cardboard cutout.]

Sara: Ew! Ew! Ew!

[Alice takes this as an opportunity and attempts to slam Valentia in the face, but Valentia dodges and strikes both Alice and Sara.]

[Jeffrey and Madison run at different angles towards Valentia. Jeffrey screams a battle cry as he dashes at her, while at the same time Madison runs towards her with her cookie sheet. Valentia teleports away right before they could reach, then the pair crashes into each other.]

[Syrz, Omar, Past Omar, and Spicy run toward Valentia.  Spicy and Past Omar boost Syrz and Omar, respectively, and Syrz boost Omar toward Valentia with her earth magic.  Omar attempts to kick Valentia, and Syrz sends a pillar of earth at Valentia before Omar’s impact.  Valentia dodges both attacks.]

[PutMoreActionHere]

[The others sit back with Isabelle, some holding a heart crystal. Isabelle instructs them on how they are going to be able to use the heart crystals. Eventually, most of the distractors had been injured to a varied extent.]

Valentia: Just GIVE UP! THERE SHALL BE NO END TO YOUR PAIN AND AGONY!

Isabelle: Not if we can help it…

[Isabelle slowly steps forward with 5 people behind her: Abby, Past Abby, Past Videm, Spicy, and Jay, each holding a unique heart crystal. Valentia then frowns, glaring at the white heart crystal in Isabelle’s hands.]

Valentia: WHERE DID YOU GET THOSE?!

Omar: We ain’t telling you, bitch!

[Valentia then chuckles, which turns into cold laughter.]

Valentia: YOU HAVE NO IDEA HOW GRATEFUL I AM.

[Valentia takes a step towards Isabelle, who slightly cowers.]

Valentia: HOW SHALL I KILL YOU? SLOWLY OR INSTANTLY?

Past Vince: Ooh, does that mean you have a slow-cooker?—I mean, neither!

Abby: You…

[Valentia stares at Abby, smiling.]

Abby: You killed Videm to gain power… you monster…

[Abby’s voice gets shaky.]

Abby: And now… it’s time for revenge…

Isabelle: GO!

[Suddenly, the group raises their heart crystals in the air, as it begins to release little specters in the air, which begin to go towards Valentia.]

Valentia: AAAUUUUGGGHHH!!!!!!

[Valentia is pushed back by so much force she falls off of the mansion, leaving a crater on the beach, where she lies there.]

Minami: Holy… holy shit…

Cheryl: You… actually did it…

Abby: Y—Yes! We did it!

[The whole group cheers, as the sky begins to fade back to a night sky. The moon shines brightly on the calming ocean.]

Past Videm: Did we do it?!

Past Kitten: FUCK YES!

[Suddenly, a jet bursts out of a rift and towards the roof.]

Past Minami: Yo, what the hell is that?!

[He points as the group looks at the jet, which lands on the beach. Out of the jet walks a man wearing a pilot uniform. He smiles as he looks up at the group.]

Kitten: Are we… supposed to ride that thing?

Morris: Yes.

[A few scream as they turn around to see Morris standing with hands behind his back.]

Past Videm: Don’t jumpscare me like that!

Morris: Look. I know you have every right not to trust me, but this jet is your only way back to Earth—back to your dimension.

[He looks down, then back up.]

Morris: Thank you… for everything. You helped kill Valentia, but I fear it won’t be long before she’s back.

[Kitten raises a brow.]

Kitten: What do you mean, we literally just killed her.

Morris: She’s far more powerful than you think… but—

[He pauses.]

Morris: She’s not alone, and I think you’ll need rest before the time comes.

[The group starts heading towards the hatchet to make their way to the jet. Abby stays back for a few moments, looking at Morris with tears in her eyes.]

Abby: I…

[She turns away.]

Outro

[On the jet, everyone sits in their seat.]

Minami: Damn, that was one hell of a vacation.

Vince: CHERYL! THIS MACARONI AND CHEESE DOESN’T HAVE ANY BREADCRUMBS, AND THE CONSISTENCY IS WAY TOO THICK, AND THE TEXTURE OVERALL IS BLAND!

Cheryl: I’M NOT EVEN THE FLIGHT ATTENDANT ON THIS JET, YOU DOLT!

~Abby, Kitten, and Scarlett~

[Abby stares at Past Videm, then sighs.]

Scarlett: By the way, I’m sorry… about… you know.

[She puts a hand on Abby’s shoulder.]

~Isabelle, Minami, and Past Minami~

Isabelle: … and it’s back to finding a job, I guess.

Minami: Damn, that sucks.

Past Minami: Why can’t you stay with us?

Isabelle: I have a family to go to, and things to do. Sorry, kids. But, if you’re going on an adventure…

[Isabelle hands Minami a little card containing her contact information.]

Isabelle: … just call me right away.

[Sam randomly pops out from behind.]

Sam: Smoooooth!

Minami: *chuckles* Shut up.

~Vince, Alice, Sara~

Vince: That whole adventure was… chaotic…

Alice: I agree, but luckily, I get to finally relax.

Sara: Ew! So many plane magazines! These will keep me content for at least three days.

[Sara grabs about 13534 magazines and shoves them in plastic bags.]

Vince: Oh god…

Alice: Ahhh… classic Sara.

[Vince and Alice chuckle.]

Sara: Ew! There’s a hole in my bag!

Vince: This mac and cheese is so meh…

Sara: Hmph… well, time to start reading.

Vince: Phew…

Sara: Done one! Who’s this new sexiest man alive? This person is nothing like Adam Levine! In fact, he’s quite ugly.

Alice: *burps a little* Oh my, excuse moi.

[The three laugh together.]

~Spicy, Mysq, and Catalina~

Mysq: So, now that everything’s over, do you guys wanna go on a date?

Catalina: Like, as a threesome?

Mysq: Hey, why not?

Spicy: No.

Mysq: You guys are mean.  Oh, by the way, Catalina…

Catalina: Yeah?

Mysq: Tell me more about how you saw me as that monster.  I knew you guys loved me after all…

Spicy: Hey, don’t get your hopes up… I saw Zeke, not you…

Catalina: Oh, how is that going?  Are you alright?

Spicy: Yeah.  I realized that Zeke is still with me, so I can be without him and not be a douche to everyone.  Just Mysq.

Mysq: Hey!

[Spicy and Catalina laugh.]

*buzzing noise*

Captain: This is your captain speaking, we should be back on Earth in no time.

*buzzing noise*

Sara: Ew! I’m so excited!

Isabelle: Well, I guess this is it. Goodbye guys—

[Suddenly, a strange, high-pitched sound rings out, as the sky begins to flash white.]

Past Omar: ahhhh wat is this

Vince: EEEEEKKKKK!!!!! MY MACARONI SPILLED ON ME!

Catalina: WHOSE LEG AM I TOUCHING NOW!

Mysq: Mine ;)

Catalina: AGAIN!?

Jeffrey: Madison!!!

Madison: I’M RIGHT HERE STOP YELLING IN MY EAR!

[Suddenly, the sky begins to warp many different colors, then everything blacks out.]

[The group wakes up with a ringing noise in their heads.]

Past Videm: Ugh… where are we?…

Minami: Dude, where’s Past Minami!?

Abby: Where are we?…

Kitten: Uh… guys…

[Kitten gets up from the sand floor, looking around and seeing random black baseplates.]

Kitten: We’re back.
