In other words, there’s so much madness, this series is rated 13+ just to weed out the REALLY picky parents and people who'd like to keep the brain cells they have now.
------------------------------
EPISODE 00: NO NEED FOR TEAM MUYO
[A night sky. Pan down to a mansion in the middle of a forest, then fade in to the upper left window. A dark figure shaped like a large armadillo is struggling to open the window before letting his arms hang and gasping for breath.]
ARMADILLO: Sheesh! Did she put a lock on this thing?
[Another shadow belonging to a girl with a tuft of her hair resembling a chicken’s comb and tail feathers sighs in disgust. She knocks on the window a few times as the scene switches and pans towards to another girl, this one having red hair, asleep in her bed. After a few more knocks, she gets up, revealing that she is wearing a purple gown. After seeing who is knocking on the window, she groans and heads to the window to unlock and raise it.]
RED-HAIRED GIRL: Do you idiots have a clue what time it is?
[The girl with tail feathers and the armadillo leap into the bedroom as the red-haired girl heads to a lamp on her nightstand and turns it on. The girl with tail feathers is revealed to have pink hair, dark skin, and is wearing a pink tank top and shorts. The armadillo is black and has a tail forked at the tip.]
CHICKEN GIRL: [Putting her hand behind her head.] Sorry to wake you up, but I just wanted to let you know that Chirubi’s given Digger and me the okay to get started with the plan.
[The armadillo, Digger, nods.]
RED-HAIRED GIRL: Plan? [Pauses.] Well, I hope this isn’t another failure of yours. You know, like the one with the zombies… and the one involving that Pretty Cure convention…
CHICKEN GIRL: Uh… yeah. Those weren’t our best works.
RED-HAIRED GIRL: Neither was the one where our bodies got switched with those guys!
DIGGER: Hey! You’re the one who wanted to try out your warp powers! You should’ve known there’d be risks like that! Although… [Blushes and smiles.] It was pretty spiffy to be in a girl’s body.
CHICKEN GIRL [Coughing]: Pervert!
DIGGER: [X-shaped vein appears on the side of his forehead.] I heard that!
RED-HAIRED GIRL: Ahem!
[The chicken girl and Digger come to attention.]
RED-HAIRED GIRL: Back on the subject with “the plan”, please.
DIGGER: Oh, right. We just need to make a few more preparations before we’re ready to flatten those guys to the ground.
RED-HAIRED GIRL: All right then. Mind if I go with you?
DIGGER: Not at all.
RED-HAIRED GIRL: Good, because the last thing I need is another stupid failure. Let me change first.
CHICKEN GIRL: Okay then. [Grabs Digger by the neck.] Better take you with me so you won’t get tempted to watch.
DIGGER: Hey!
[The chicken girl jumps out of the window with Digger in tow. Cut to the chicken girl landing on the ground and dropping Digger, who does not appear to have enjoyed that. A few seconds later, a vague figure appeared in front of the chicken girl and Digger before eventually materializing into the red-haired girl in a new outfit: a gold tiara, a chest plate, shoulder plates, and a gold outfit with a reddish-purple skirt and gold sandals.]
RED-HAIRED GIRL: Squawky, Digger… let’s go.
CHICKEN GIRL (SQUAWKY): [Salutes.] Okay!
DIGGER: You’re the boss, Maid Valentine!
[Fade to black as Maid Valentine, the red-haired girl; Squawky, and Digger run off.]
***
NARRATOR: It’s my turn to talk, right? Okay.
[Fade to a hilly area in the daytime.]
NARRATOR: All right. Here we are at Kanto Hills.
[Pan down to an orange mouse with a backpack walking along the path.]
NARRATOR: And there’s Raichu the Mouse coming home from school. You see, she goes to the Monster Ball Boarding School, which is practically the only school on Satojiri Island. [Pauses.] Well, not the only one. There is another one, but it’s pretty obscure. [Raichu walks off the path and lies on the grass.] Anyway, back to Raichu. Like I said, she’s coming home from school and— [Raichu smiles as she suddenly gets starry eyed.] Huh? What’s up with her?
RAICHU: Unreal! [Cut to a billboard with a picture of a swallow with hair down to her knees, a red sleeveless top with matching skirt and red sandals along with text reading “Want to get up close and personal with me, Heaven’s Tornado? Get free tickets and backstage passes to my upcoming concert!”.] Free concert tickets?! Backstage passes?! I’m so there! Huh? [Switch to Raichu looking confused and then to the smaller text on the billboard reading “First come, first serve!” in an arrow pointing left under the picture.] Aw, man! I’ve gotta hurry before someone else gets the tickets! [Runs off on all fours.]
***
[Raichu arrives in a grassy area where she spots a basket with two tickets and two laminated slips of paper with the words “BACKSTAGE PASS” written on them. Without a second thought, Raichu runs on all fours and gets starry eyed again once she gets to the basket.]
NARRATOR: Uh… I don’t mean to ruin the moment, but why would someone leave concert tickets and backstage passes out on the open? And in a basket, no less?
RAICHU: Who cares? [Takes the basket and giggles.] Wait till Kirlia and Sandslash hear about this!
SQUAWKY’S VOICE [Whispering]: I can’t believe she took the bait!
RAICHU: Huh?
DIGGER’S VOICE [Whispering]: What a twit!
[Short pause.]
RAICHU: Whoever’s there, come out now! I know you’re there!
SQUAWKY’S VOICE [Whispering]: Darn it! She heard us!
DIGGER’S VOICE [Whispering]: Doesn’t matter!
UNKNOWN VOICE [Whispering]: Looks like it’s time for me to attack, right?
SQUAWKY’S VOICE [Whispering]: Go on! But remember the plan, okay? We’ll head back while you take care of her!
RAICHU: [Puts her paws on her hips and tapping her foot impatiently.] I’m waaaaaiting…
UNKNOWN VOICE: That joke was annoying when the blue guy said it eons ago!
[A large monster appearing to be a crossbreed of a shrimp and a scorpion leaps toward Raichu and attempts to grab her with his claws, but Raichu jumps out of the way. The monster tries to grab Raichu again, but she dodges like last time. While Raichu was in midair, her cheeks spark with electricity before she fires it off as a massive bolt of lightning that strikes the monster. After the attack, Raichu lands on the ground and the monster is still moaning as electricity crackles around it.]
RAICHU: I guess that did it.
[Unfortunately, the electricity starts to go away as the monster gets up and roars.]
RAICHU: [Looking at the revitalized monster in an anime wild take.] Totally unreal! Can’t you take a hit and go away?!
NARRATOR: Uh… that’ll be kinda pointless.
[Before Raichu can say something, she sees the monster’s pointed tail heading towards her and narrowly avoids it by running to her left. Raichu’s cheeks spark again before she fires off another electric attack at the monster, but this time, the attack is a little less effective than the last one. After a few more electric attacks from Raichu, the monster is able to shake them off. The monster growls maliciously while Raichu is trying to catch her breath.]
RAICHU: Now… what…? [Dodges another tail sting.] My electric attacks don’t seem to work anymore, and I— [Gets grabbed by the monster’s claw.] AAAAAAAH! [Tries to get out.]
NARRATOR: I’m just going to take a wild guess here, but I think now would be the time to show off your latest psychic attack.
RAICHU: [Struggling to get out of the claw but without avail.] Oh, right! I forgot about that! [Pauses.] Uh… it’s Topaz Gamma, right? [Notices the monster trying to sting her with his tail and dodges by moving sideways with each hit.]
NARRATOR: Uh, yeah. That’s it.
RAICHU: Just… [Leans to the right to dodge the tail.] checking. [Closes her eyes and glows a bright yellow before she raised her paw at the monster.] PK Topaz Gamma!
[An orb appears at the tip of Raichu’s paw and begins to shoot bubbles at the monster. Eventually, all the bubbles merge into one big enough to encase the monster as well as Raichu.]
NARRATOR: Okay… that was pretty sloppy.
RAICHU: You don’t have to rub it in… [Closes eyes again and glows yellow. She holds up her paw, but this time, she aimed for the monster’s eyes.] PK Topaz Alpha!
[A jet of water shoots from her paw and into the monster’s eyes, forcing him to let go of Raichu so she can escape out of the bubble.]
RAICHU: That was close.
[A loud shattering noise is heard, and Raichu turns around to see the monster has broken free of the bubble. However, instead of attacking again, the monster just growls.]
MONSTER: You win, rodent… for now. However, I was just going easy on you. Next time, though, you won’t be so lucky. [Walks off.]
RAICHU: [Sweatdrop.] Uh… okay.
***
[A girl with long pink ponytails is sitting at her desk in an office and appears to be bored as she talks to someone.]
GIRL: ‘Kay. So, what’s been going on?
[Cut to a brown-haired girl in a green dress sitting in front of the other girl in ponytails.]
GIRL 2: You see, Miss Lovrina, Elias and Neris have their usual shifts by now, but they haven’t been seen since—
[The scene remains the same, but the second girl is now replaced with two waitresses sitting in the spot the previous girl was. While both of them are wearing gray uniforms, one waitress has brownish-orange hair with dice barrettes in them while the other has dark blue hair and a domino bracelet.]
WAITRESS 1: —this morning. Cure Domino and I needed the fish and the other seafood to be thawed out.
WAITRESS 2 (CURE DOMINO): We’re supposed to prepare the weekly Seafood Platter Screw special today, but when we checked the ice box, they were—
[The two waitresses are now replaced with another girl wearing cloth covering her chest and waist and a shoulder plate on her left shoulder.]
GIRL 3: —gone! All of them! The goldfish, the catfish, the seals… my aquatic animals be gone from my pet store! I told my boss about this, but she—
[The third girl is replaced with the brown-haired girl.]
GIRL 2: —told me to ask you where they might be, so—
[Cut to the waitresses.]
CURE DOMINO: —here we are. Can you please help me and Cure Dice out?
[The two girls and waitresses are now in a four-way split screen.]
GIRL 2, GIRL 3, WAITRESS 1 (CURE DICE), & CURE DOMINO: Please help us out! You just have to!
[The scene switches back to the first girl, Lovrina. After a long pause, she looks up and sighs.]
LOVRINA: I’ll so have to get back to you on that, ‘kay?
[The brown-haired girl hits the ground in an anime wild take before getting back up just as quickly as she fell. She grits her teeth for a few seconds, then leaves the office. The girl who works at the pet store and the waitresses are waiting outside.]
GIRL 3: So? What she say?
GIRL 2: She said that she’ll get back to us, but knowing her… she probably won’t.
CURE DICE: [Hangs head as blue lines appear over it.] Figures.
GIRL 3: Still, why would my aquatic animals disappear like that?
CURE DOMINO: And all of our fish and seafood?
GIRL 2: And Elias and Neris would’ve said something if they were leaving. What in the world is going on?
***
[Pan across a beach until we see Squawky and Digger. Squawky appears to be bored and irritated while Digger seems to be at home as he sleeps on the sand. A few seconds later, we see a young girl dragging a large bag. Her outfit, which consists a panda-faced hat, a brownish-black dress covered by a white sheet, tights with gray flowers, and Mary Janes; is currently wet and filthy along with the bag. As soon as the girl meets up with Squawky and Digger, she falls on her knees in exhaustion.]
SQUAWKY: You’re late, Piyoko.
[The girl, Piyoko, grits her teeth as an X-shaped vein appears above her head.]
PIYOKO: Well, I had to go to all the places you’ve mentioned, and I’m a mess-pyo! Look at my clothes-pyo!
[Squawky shrugs.]
PIYOKO: You wouldn’t be doing that if a seal thought that you were a toilet-pyo!
SQUAWKY: As low as you are, you probably should’ve seen that coming. Besides, you know that kidnapping is best left to pros like me and Digger. [Slight pause.] Then again, beggars can’t be choosers.
PIYOKO: You shouldn’t be talking-pyo! You’re in a higher demon rank than me, but you’re really second lowest-pyo!
[At that point, Squawky and Piyoko start to get into a cartoon-style fight with them yelling at each other and the dust covering most of the clawing, hitting, and kicking. Digger cringes in his sleep as the fight went on. Just then, he gets a rude awakening when a blue streak zips by him and knocks him on his back.]
DIGGER: [Rocking on his back to get on his feet.] Hey! What was…?!
[Squawky and Piyoko stop fighting and spot a blue hedgehog with red shoes standing between them and Digger.]
HEDGEHOG: Hey, guys.
SQUAWKY: You?!
DIGGER: Here?!
PIYOKO: Now?!
SQUAWKY [Under her breath]: Well, this sucks! He’s not ready, and Sonic’s already here!
HEDGEHOG (SONIC) [Overhearing Squawky]: What’s not ready?
[Squawky eyes Sonic before she gets out an egg-shaped bazooka, cocks it, and aims it at him.]
SQUAWKY: [To Digger and Piyoko, although not facing them]: Make the final preparations. I’ll take care of Sonic.
[Sonic smiles smugly while Digger and Piyoko leave. As soon as the two were no longer in view, Squawky pulls the trigger, and the bazooka fires a brown egg with angry eyes. Sonic dashes out of the way, dodging the egg before it even came close to him. The egg splatters on the sand and sizzles as it turns black. Squawky, irritated by this, begins firing the eggs rapidly, but all of them are dodged by Sonic. He heads straight for Squawky while still dodging the barrage of eggs.]
SQUAWKY: Will you hold still?!
[Squawky continues to fire at Sonic, who runs left and starts to run around her a few times. This goes on for a while until Squawky’s bazooka starts to click, signifying that she is out of ammo. She frustratingly pulls the trigger a few more times in hopes of getting even a mediocre shot, and then she throws the gun on the ground, not noticing that Sonic zips up behind her.]
SQUAWKY: And I just upgraded that stupid thing too!
[A whistle is heard, and Squawky turns around to see Sonic standing behind her. Before Squawky could react, Sonic charges up electricity in his quills and shocks her with it. Squawky, charred, falls on the ground while Sonic moans in pain while he sparks a little.]
SONIC: [Cringing.] Sheesh… Paralysis again. Should’ve gone with Alpha…
NARRATOR: Doesn’t look as serious as usual, though.
***
[At another area of the beach, a girl with light blue hair and a long white dress looks cautiously outside a shed before quickly going back into it and getting out a green-haired mermaid in a large bowl full of water. As the girl tries to catch her breath, the mermaid appears to be worried as she leans over in the bowl with one of her arms out.]
MERMAID: What are we gonna do, Elias? I’m sure Seren’s wondering where we are.
GIRL (ELIAS): [Shielding her eyes as she looks around until she is facing in the opposite direction as the mermaid.] I think I see the hotel! [Faces the mermaid.] Now if there was a way for both of us to get there.
[A blackish-purple ball heads toward Elias and hits her on the back. She suddenly collapses on the ground, and a black aura surrounds her as she struggles to get back up in vain.]
MERMAID: Elias!
ELIAS: [Collapses on the ground after another effort to get back up.] It… hurts…
DIGGER’S VOICE: Thought you could get away, did you, ladies?
[Digger walks up to Elias as she slowly faces him. Switch to the mermaid, who is obviously concerned about Elias.]
NARRATOR: Ah, yes. Digger’s oh-so-painful “Devil’s Weight” attack, a.k.a. “the cheap sneak attack”.
MERMAID: What are you doing to Elias? Leave her alone!
PIYOKO: [Stepping up next to Digger.] Now, why would we do that-pyo? We need you and your little friend here to help out Shrimp Scorpi-pyo. After we get done with you, we’ll have everything we need to get rid of Team Muyo-pyo. And after that—
DIGGER: [Rapidly scratching Piyoko with his claws.] You’re giving everything away, so shut up!
PIYOKO: [Knocking Digger off of her.] You’re the one to talk-pyo! You took your sweet time kidnapping them-pyo! Were you trying to steal a kiss from them or something-pyo?
[Digger does a wide-eyed anime wild take and turns red with embarrassment. After a pause, he and Piyoko begin yelling at each other. Meanwhile, the aura surrounding Elias starts to fade until she is able to stand up again. Elias sighs in relief and, seeing an opportunity to get away, leans toward the mermaid.]
ELIAS [Whispering to the mermaid]: Let’s get into the sea, Neris. We’ll head to the other side of the beach.
[The mermaid, Neris, nods and dives from her bowl to the sea. Elias got into the water right after her, and both of them swim off as Digger and Piyoko continue arguing.]
***
[Elias and Neris are swimming toward a large building that is slowly becoming visible in the distance.]
ELIAS: There’s the hotel!
NERIS: What a relief.
NARRATOR: You know, the two of you should’ve pulled that escape stunt a lot earlier…
[Elias, annoyed, looks at the screen.]
NARRATOR: Hey, I’m not trying to rub it in! At least… not on purpose.
NERIS: At least there’s no sign of that girl and the armadillo.
[A blue streak zips by the shore. Elias and Neris are surprised at first but then they are relieved when they finally saw that the blue streak is actually Sonic.]
ELIAS: [Stops swimming and waves her arms.] Hey, Sonic! Over here! [Neris stops swimming as well.] We need to have a quick word with you!
SONIC’S VOICE: I’m right here.
[Question marks appear above Elias and Neris’s heads. A second later, they turn around to see Sonic is in a shallow area next to where Elias and Neris are. Sweatdrops appear on Elias and Neris.]
SONIC: What’s up?
ELIAS: Well, Neris and I were kidnapped by an armadillo. He put us in a shed, but we got away. However, the armadillo attacked me, and there was this little girl—
SONIC: Armadillo? Little girl? [Turns away from Elias and Neris.] Heh. Sounds like Digger and Piyoko don’t know when to give up.
NERIS: That’s not all. [Sonic faces Neris and Elias again.] The girl said something about us being involved with this Shrimp Scorpi thing.
ELIAS: It’s a good thing we ran into you, though, Sonic. We could sure use your and Tails’s help.
SONIC: Tails? [Pause.] Oh, yeah. He told me that he was staying at the Panel de Inn for a few days.
NERIS: We really need to hurry and get there.
SONIC: No problem. Neris, you come with me.
ELIAS: Uh… Sonic? You know that Neris can’t—
SONIC: Don’t worry. [Gets Neris out of the water.] I have everything under control. [To Neris]: Hang on!
NERIS: “Hang on”? Sonic, I’m not su…
[Sonic, while carrying Neris, dashes off at full speed.]
NERIS [From distance]: Waaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaah!
ELIAS: [Sweatdrop.] How does he do it? [Resumes swimming toward the hotel.]
NARRATOR: I’m wondering the same thing, sister.
***
[An orange two-tailed fox and a red-haired girl in a purplish pink dress and red boots are playing a game. The fox was playing as a purple-haired girl with cat ears riding on a pencil, and his opponent was playing as a girl riding on a dragon. The dragon rider shoots several fireballs at smiling cloud creatures that explode. Almost immediately after that happens, fireballs are sent flying to the left side of the screen and hit the pencil rider. As the now charred pencil rider falls off the screen, the words “NORMAL ATTACK KO” appear on the screen.]
VOICE IN GAME: K.O.!
[Larger sprites of the characters appear. The word “WON” in large red letters circle around the dragon rider, who appears to be happy as well as her dragon, and assemble underneath her as fireworks explode around her and a star appears in a second box, signifying that she is the winner of the game overall. Meanwhile, the word "LOST" in large blue letters fall in a waterfall fashion under the saddened pencil rider with a bandage on her head, now accompanied with a pink-haired girl with rabbit ears who is in tears. After the score tallies up on the winning side, the words and score vanish and then a star within a circle on a blue background appears with the game's name, "Twinklestar Sprites", inside the star. Switch back to the fox, who moans out of being less than happy with his loss, and the red-haired girl, who appears to be ready to play a solo game.]
FOX: I can’t believe I’ve lost again. I’m somewhat good at Puyo Puyo, but I can’t say the same about my skills at Twinkle Star Sprites.
RED-HAIRED GIRL: Don’t worry about it. So you lost your first few games. [Starts playing.] I’m just getting the hang of this myself. If you want some tips, I suggest going to the department store next door. Load Ran can give you some pointers.
FOX: Maybe I should’ve played as Load Ran. Everyone says that she’s good for beginners.
RED-HAIRED GIRL: Tell you what, Tails. After I finish with my game, I’ll let you have a free game so you really can learn the ropes. How does that sound?
FOX (TAILS): Really? Wow! Thanks, Flare!
RED-HAIRED GIRL (FLARE): Hey, you and the rest of Team Muyo help us—as well as the whole planet—out all the time. It’s the least I could do.
[Another girl with dark brown hair, a yellow shirt with a flower on it, and a pink skirt suddenly rushes in the room. Tails and Flare swiftly turn to see her as she tries to catch her breath.]
DARK BROWN-HAIRED GIRL: The buffet…! Something happened at the buffet…!
TAILS: What happened, Lip?
DARK BROWN-HAIRED GIRL (LIP): All of the… the seafood… [Takes deep breath.] All of the seafood is gone from the buffet!
FLARE: Eh…?! [Question mark appears above her head.] Why in the world would anyone want to steal seafood?
LIP: I don’t know, but we should look into this! I’ll call everyone over while you go. [Runs off.]
[Flare and Tails look at each other for a few seconds and nod before leaving.]
***
[Elias arrives in front of a large pink and gold building. She pauses for a moment to catch her breath and looks around for Sonic and Neris. Sure enough, she sees the hedgehog running a bit longer before skidding to a stop. Neris, still carried by Sonic, has swirly eyes and is shaking.]
ELIAS: I was getting worried.
SONIC: I decided to take the long way just for kicks.
NERIS: It really didn’t feel like the long way…
VOICE [Heard from other side of the hotel door.]: What do you mean all the seafood from the buffet has been stolen?
[Sonic, Elias, and Neris (who returns back to normal) face the door.]
LIP’S VOICE [Heard from other side of the hotel door]: I was taking my break, so I was on my way to the penthouse when I heard one of the chefs scream. I went in and I noticed the seafood section of the buffet was completely empty!
NARRATOR: [As the voices fade out.] What is it with the sea-related stuff missing, anyway?
SONIC, ELIAS & NERIS: Huh?
NARRATOR: Oh, nothing. Just… go into the hotel and handle whatever’s bothering Lip, okay?
ELIAS [Whispering to Sonic.]: Is the narrator always this annoying?
SONIC: Pretty much. [Notices he’s still holding Neris.] What should I—
ELIAS: Oh, yeah. I’ve got it covered. [Winks.] There’s something I keep around at the pool for Neris in case I can’t get one of the luggage carts. [Runs off as Sonic looks in confusion.]
NARRATOR: Yeah, I’m wondering about that too.
***
[The lobby of the hotel. At the front desk, a group of guests is complaining to a blond-haired woman with a crescent moon on her forehead and wearing white gloves and a long white dress. After a few more seconds of hearing complaints, the woman slams her hand of the desk.]
WOMAN: Everyone, please calm down! [Silence.] Thank you. Now, I know you’re concerned about the unavailable service, but I will make sure that this will be taken care of.
MAN: I sure hope so! I saw that the buffet was a mess this morning!
WOMAN 2: And room service is awfully slow today!
WOMAN 3: I sat in the restaurant for an hour, and then the waitress said that my order’s unavailable!
[The group begins to complain again, much to the woman’s chagrin. As the complaints continue, she turns around with her fist clenched and her teeth gritted.]
WOMAN: [Under her breath]: For the love of Panel de Pon! If this problem isn’t fixed soon—
ELIAS’S VOICE: Seren!
[The woman, Seren, snaps out of her irritation and turns around to see Sonic, Elias, and Neris, who was in a bowl full of water inside what appears to be a crate with wheels. Sonic heads to the front desk as the crowd backs away a bit. Elias, pulling a rope attached to the cart, takes Neris to the desk as well.]
ELIAS: [Puts her hand behind her head.] Sorry, we’re late.
NERIS: You wouldn’t believe what happened to us. You see—
MAN 2: Never mind that! What about that mess at the buffet?!
GROUP: Yeah!
NERIS: Mess?
MAN: I went into the buffet this morning for breakfast, and it was a pigsty! I just saw that flower girl, the fire girl, the grass girl, and some two-tailed Vulpix taking care of it, though.
MAN 2: They sure are taking their sweet time with it, ‘cause I’m hungry! The restaurant’s closed now and I don’t feel like waiting around for room service!
SONIC: We’ll look into it ourselves. [To Elias, Neris, and Seren]: Let’s go!
***
[Flare and the brown-haired girl that was in Lovrina’s office are mopping the floor while Tails and Lip are arranging newly cleaned plates and pans.]
FLARE: [Dipping her mop in the bucket a few times before continuing to mop.] I still don’t understand why in the world anyone would steal a bunch of seafood.
TAILS: It doesn’t make sense to me either, Flare. I’ll get to the bottom of this after I help you guys clean up.
LIP: I’m really sorry that we’re putting you through a lot of trouble, Tails, since you’re a guest and all.
TAILS: It’s no trouble at all.
[Sonic, Elias, Neris, and Seren appear at the buffet entrance.]
SONIC: Tails!
TAILS: Huh? Hey, Sonic. What are you doing here?
SONIC: Just came by after helping Elias and Neris.
ELIAS: Yeah. Sorry we haven’t been at our shifts, but we had… armadillo problems. [Giggles nervously, then notices the mostly cleaned up mess.] What happened in here?
BROWN-HAIRED GIRL: I don’t know, but it was like this when I was getting ready to open the buffet. Lip came by and I told her to tell Seren and the other fairies, and I ended up having to close the restaurant so I can clean the place up.
SEREN: Well, Thiana, that pretty much brought a lot of unhappy guests to the front desk.
[A sweatdrop appears on Thiana’s, the brown haired girl, face.]
LIP: We’re halfway done cleaning up, though. The rest of the pans and plates are in the dishwasher. We should be done in time to serve dinner.
[The lights suddenly go off, causing gasps and screams. Just as quickly, however, the lights come on with a note in front of Tails.]
TAILS: [Picks up note.] What’s this? “Dear Muyo brats, you might’ve beaten us a few times, but after today, the game is over. The six of you will be up against one of the deadliest demons ever created by Chirubi, and you have to show up at the beach near Summer Resort. You have to show up alone, too, so that means you can’t bring Calumon or those Johto Pokemon kiddies that hang around you all the time. However, if you want to bring a small audience to witness your death, feel free. Sincerely, Squawky, Digger, and Piyoko.”
SONIC: Those guys never learn…
[The lights go off again, but this time when they come back on, Elias and Neris are gone. Another letter is on the floor, and Thiana picks it up and reads it.]
THIANA: “P.S. In case you couldn’t tell, we’ve taken your friends again to prove that we’re not kidding. You will die, this world will belong to Chirubi, this show will be cancelled, and the writers will thankfully get lives.”
[Sweatdrops appear on Sonic, Tails, Lip, Thiana, Flare, and Seren. A bird caw is then heard in the background.]
NARRATOR: Was that even necessary?
TAILS: I’m asking myself the same thing.
SONIC: Anyway… it looks like things are getting pretty interesting, if not bizarre like usual. Tails, I’ll head over to Summer Resort while you gather the others. [To Lip]: Lip, you and the others stay here and keep an eye on things.
LIP: [Nods.] Right.
[Sonic dashes off. Lip, Thiana, Flare, and Seren look at each other as Tails leaves. A few seconds later, the four fairies turn to see that the buffet is not clean yet. They all do an anime-style wild take before suddenly grabbing the mops nearest them and getting back to work.]
LIP: I can’t believe that all of this made us forget about cleaning the buffet!
***
[A dark room. Several dead aquatic animals and types of seafood are shown. Pan over an unconscious Elias and then a worried Neris, who is locked in a glass spherical water tank.]
NARRATOR: So, the Elias and Neris are captured again, and this time, they’re in a room full of uncooked seafood and dead sea animals. What kind of sick torture are they in for? [Neris begins knocking on the glass to wake Elias up.] Maybe a demon will suck out their souls, or maybe they’ll be possessed to get rid of Team Muyo... Maybe worse: they'll be forced to cosplay as characters from Tetris Attack! [Brief scene of Elias in a frog costume and Neris dressed as a fish with huge lips.] Oh, the horror!
[Cut to a metal door as it unlocks and opens, making Neris stop knocking on the glass. Digger enters and closes the door before turning his attention to Elias and Neris.]
DIGGER: [Smiles smugly.] Thought you two could get away, did you?
[Cut to Neris, who, annoyed by Digger’s comment, is now trying to break from the water tank by knocking it over. As this continues, Digger heads over to Elias.]
DIGGER: [Eyeing Neris.] Don’t waste your time. No mere creature in the Land of the Heart can break through that. [Laughs, then looks at Elias’s face.] Now, I should sacrifice you and your friend to Shrimp Scorpi so he can be at full strength, but… [Smiles widely as he blushes.] Maybe I’ll take a little something for myself from you pretty girls before I do… starting with this oh-so-sexy water sprite here. [Puckers up to kiss Elias.]
NARRATOR: Oh, no. [Digger leans toward Elias to kiss her.] Don’t you dare. Don't you dare kiss her! Oooh…! I hope Team Muyo, Lip or any of the other fairies will barge into this scene and kick your sorry behind, you pervert!
[A metallic slam startles Digger, making him yelp and turn to see Squawky at the entrance.]
SQUAWKY: What the heck are you doing?!
[Digger zips in front of Squawky.]
DIGGER: I… uh… well… [Nervously laughs.] I was… checking to make sure that—
SQUAWKY: Never mind. Are they ready yet?
DIGGER: I… was just getting to that! The water sprite’s out cold, and I was about to knock out the mermaid as well. However, help yourself to anything else.
SQUAWKY: Good. I was making sure that you weren’t… getting fresh with them. These are our prisoners and not your personal girl toys.
DIGGER: [Blushes as Squawky gets a dead baby seal.] Y… y… you don’t have to make it sound like that!
SQUAWKY: Whatever. Just get it over with. He’s itching to kick Team Muyo’s butts.
DIGGER: Yeah, yeah. Don’t rush me. I’ve got everything covered. [Squawky sighs and leaves with the seal. After a few seconds, Digger heads over to Elias.] Now… where were we?
NARRATOR: Oh, good grief…
***
[Squawky is seen walking across the beach where she fought Sonic.]
SQUAWKY: Everything’s going according to plan. Summer Resort’s beach is closed because of Shrimp Scorpi, he absorbed Raichu’s power for his best attack, Piyoko robbed that restaurant, that department store’s pet store, and that hotel’s buffet; and Digger managed to kidnap that water sprite and the mermaid. Sonic got in the way, but this time, he and Team Muyo will be too late to do anything. [Laughs.] We are so gonna own those guys.
[An explosion is heard, and Squawky looks ahead and sees smoke.]
SQUAWKY: Oh, shoot! [Runs off.]
[Cut to Piyoko shooting beams from her mouth at winged pigs. The pigs successfully dodge the beams and dive straight toward Piyoko. One of them shoots green waves out its nose, and the attack hits Piyoko as she was firing another one of her mouth beams. She falls over as the pigs surround her.]
PIYOKO: You’re not wanted here, so go away-pyo!
[Cut to the person leading the pig attack, who is the green-haired girl who was in Lovrina’s office.]
GREEN-HAIRED GIRL: Tell me what you done with my animals first!
PIYOKO: Like I would-pyo! [Suddenly gets tackled by one of the pigs.] Ow! [Gets tackled by another pig.] Stop it-pyo!
[Suddenly, all the pigs start to tackle and bite Piyoko.]
PIYOKO: Okay, I’ll tell you-pyo! Just make your stupid overgrown pork chops stop-pyo!
[The green-haired girl whistles, and the pigs obediently fly back to her.]
NARRATOR: Wow. Nice going there, Yan Yan.
[The green-haired girl, Yan Yan, giggles as she does a “V” with her fingers.]
PIYOKO: Hello-pyo?!
NARRATOR: Oh, right. Sorry.
[Switch back to Piyoko.]
PIYOKO [To Yan Yan]: Okay-pyo… I’ll tell you-pyo.
SQUAWKY’S VOICE: Or not!
[A barrage of blue eggs with siwrly eyes heads for Yan Yan. While she dodges a few, one of them hit her on the leg, which causes her to fall. The firing stops, and Squawky with her bazooka lands next to Piyoko. The pigs, angry at Squawky, fly toward her only to be shot down by a few shots from Squawky’s bazooka.]
YAN YAN: [Seeing her pigs trying to fly again but unable to.] Pigbird! [Tries to get up but no avail.] Ooh… my body be numb…
SQUAWKY: [Laughs.] Once again, I prove that I, unlike you, your pigs, and Piyoko; don’t suck.
PIYOKO: That’s right-pyo! [Pause, then faces Squawky with an X-shaped vein on her forehead.] Hey!
SQUAWKY: [Ignoring Piyoko and looks around for a few seconds.] Hmmm… Digger seems to be taking his sweet time with those girls.
[Yan Yan and her Pigbirds continue struggling to get on their feet. Seeing this, Squawky shoots more egg-shaped missiles, this time green in color and with crossed eyes. Once the eggs hit Yan Yan and the Pigbirds, they become encased in ice.]
SQUAWKY: A combination of my Coddle Shot and my Scramble Shot. Why didn’t I think of it earlier?
[A giant vine grows from the ground and knocks Squawky and Piyoko off their feet.]
PIYOKO: Oh…!
SQUAWKY: What the heck was that?
SONIC’S VOICE: Take a guess!
[Sonic, Tails, and Raichu appear in front of Squawky and Piyoko. Joining Sonic and Tails are a pink hedgehog in a red dress, a green-haired dragon girl in a Chinese dress, and a red echidna with spiked knuckles.]
PIYOKO [Whispering to Squawky]: What are we gonna do-pyo?! Digger isn’t here with the water sprite and the mermaid yet-pyo!
SQUAWKY [Whispering to Piyoko]: Let me handle this. [Out loud]: I knew you’d get my message eventually.
DRAGON GIRL: Never mind that. Where’s Elias and Neris? [Sees Yan Yan and her Pigbirds frozen.] And what have you done to Yan Yan and her Pigbirds?
SQUAWKY: [Snickers.] None of your concern, especially since this is the end of the line for you, Team Muyo. Even though it’s too early for him, I don’t want to draw this out. [Snaps fingers.] Shrimp Scorpi, make a seafood platter out of these guys! Show ‘em how lethal you really are!
[Cut to the sky turning into a dark purple, then cut to the monster Raichu fought earlier rising from the sea.]
SQUAWKY: Oh, before I forget… [Throws the dead seal from earlier toward Shrimp Scorpi, the monster.] …here you go!
[Upon seeing this, Shrimp Scorpi rears back his tail and stung the seal. An orb surrounds the seal and it goes into Shrimp Scorpi’s body. After a few seconds of Shrimp Scorpi’s body glowing, he roars and stares at Team Muyo, who gets ready to fight.]
PINK HEDGEHOG: I can see why Yan Yan closed her shop today.
SQUAWKY: Amusing last words. [To Shrimp Scorpi]: Now… KILL ‘EM!
[Shrimp Scorpi lashes out his claws and shoots large blasts of water from them at Team Muyo. Sonic, Raichu, and the pink hedgehog run out of the way; Tails and the dragon girl fly away, and the echidna uses his knuckles to burrow underground. Shrimp Scorpi, obviously seeing his attack is dodged, aims at the pink hedgehog and shoots several of the water blasts at her.]
DRAGON GIRL: [Seeing Shrimp Scorpi attacking.] Amy!
[The dragon girl dives toward the pink hedgehog, Amy, and carries her in the air before the attack hits her. Meanwhile, the echidna appears from a hole behind Shrimp Scorpi as Sonic and Raichu head toward him. The echidna jumps toward Shrimp Scorpi, rears back his fist, and punches him on the side. Sonic curls himself up into a ball and rams into the other side of Shrimp Scorpi. Raichu runs at a speed to the point where she has a white stream trailing after her. She jumps up and hits Shrimp Scorpi in the face.]
SHRIMP SCORPI: Iyaaaaaaaa!
[Cut to Squawky, who is waving her arms in anger.]
SQUAWKY: Hey! No fair! Shrimp Scorpi is supposed to be owning those guys!
NARRATOR: You should just do it yourself instead of relying on monstrosities like that.
SQUAWKY: Shut up. I’m sure the good part is gonna come.
PIYOKO: You seemed to be riled up about this-pyo.
SQUAWKY: That’s because I’m sure Team Muyo’s gonna get their butts kicked. [Facing the viewers.] And what are you doing listening to me?! Get back to the battle already!
NARRATOR: You are sick.
[Cut back to Shrimp Scorpi attacking by spraying mist from his stinger. The mist surrounds the entire beach as Tails lands. The dragon girl lands after putting Amy on the ground. The three of them look around for Sonic, Raichu, and the echidna; but the dragon girl is suddenly pinned on the ground by Shrimp Scorpi’s front legs.]
SHRIMP SCORPI: Gotcha!
[Before Shrimp Scorpi could attack, the dragon girl breathes fire in his face, forcing him to back off. The dragon girl, seeing her chance, gets away.]
TAILS: PK Garnet Gamma!
[Tails throws some glowing seeds that, upon being planted on the ground, grow into vines that tied Shrimp Scorpi down.]
AMY: Are you okay, Draco?
DRAGON GIRL (DRACO): Yeah.
TAILS: At least we’ve taken care of that guy.
RAICHU: [Appears with Sonic and the red echidna.] He’s as big of a pushover as he was last time. This fight is totally—
[The mist around them swirls at a very high speed. Team Muyo appear confused for a moment until they rose into the air and the mist became a massive tornado. Cut to the outside of the tornado where Shrimp Scorpi, free from the now weakened vines, has a bluish-white aura surrounding him. He faces the sea and moves his claws in a throwing motion. Almost immediately, Team Muyo are shot out of the tornado and into the sea. Just as Team Muyo surfaced, Shrimp Scorpi faces them and sprays bubbles from his tail. All the bubbles merge into six bubbles big enough to encase each of Team Muyo.]
RAICHU: Huh…?! He’s using MY attack! But how…?
[Flashback to Raichu’s last battle with Shrimp Scorpi where she uses PK Topaz Gamma. The flashback ends, and Raichu is in shock. The scene cuts to Squawky, who is smiling widely as she watches Team Muyo floating in the bubbles.]
SQUAWKY: This is sweet. This is so sweet! [Laughs.] Absorbing and copying Raichu’s best psychic attack, growing in power with all that seafood and animals we gave him… Yes! This is just too good! Now, if only Digger can hurry up with the water babe and the mermaid, I’ll just give them to Shrimp Scorpi and I’ll really have it made!
[Piyoko starts to speak, but Squawky slaps her.]
PIYOKO: [Recovering quickly from the slap.] Hey…!
SQUAWKY: Don’t go there. [Goes back to watching the battle.]
[Cut to the echidna trying to punch his way out of the bubble without much luck. Before he can make another hit, he plummets into the sea where, upon being underwater, his bubble popped. Cut to the rest of Team Muyo.]
DRACO: Knuckles! [Suddenly gets pulled into the sea as well.] Wah!
[Sonic, Tails, Amy, and Raichu suffer the same fate as Knuckles, the echidna, and Draco when they are pulled into the sea and their bubbles popping underwater. The sextet notices Shrimp Scorpi swimming toward them at a rapid pace. Team Muyo manages to dodge Shrimp Scorpi the first time, but the monster doubles back and grabs Raichu with his claws. Tails sees this and swims after him.]
TAILS [Telepathically]: Raichu!
[Shrimp Scorpi appears on the shore with Raichu in tow. Tails, with both of his tails spinning like propellers, flies behind Shrimp Scorpi.]
TAILS: PK Garnet Beta!
[Tails’s tails begin to glow and a powder spreads from it. Cut to Raichu who, upon seeing the powder, takes a quick but deep breath. The powder drifts around Shrimp Scorpi, who suddenly cringes in pain as he appears poisoned. He roars and waves his claws, dropping Raichu in the process.]
RAICHU: [Breathes out.] Whew… I though I was done for.
TAILS: [Telepathically.] Raichu! Go and save the others! I’ll take care of him!
[Raichu nods at Tails and runs off to the ocean. Tails is seen hovering in front of Shrimp Scorpi.]
TAILS: PK Garnet Gamma!
[Tails lets out his hand, and seeds appear in it. He throws the seeds in front of Shrimp Scorpi, and vines suddenly sprout and tie around Shrimp Scorpi. As Shrimp Scorpi tries to break free, Tails slowly drops to the ground in exhaustion.]
TAILS: [Tries to catch his breath.] That’s the third time… I hope it’ll be enough…
[Cut to Raichu swimming until she sees the remainder of Team Muyo, who appear unable to hold their breath any longer.]
RAICHU: Topaz Veil!
[She puts her paws together, and a bubble forms above her. The bubble starts to grow in size until it was big enough to surround her. She heads over to Sonic, and, immediately after touching him, a bubble forms around him. Raichu does the same to Draco, Amy, and Knuckles.]
DRACO: It’s about time.
SONIC: Where’s Tails?
RAICHU: He’s fighting that scorpion thing, but I doubt he’ll last too long.
DRACO: Well, neither will we unless we figure out how to take it down!
KNUCKLES: I think I have a plan, though. Just follow my lead.
[Cut to Tails, who is shooting energy in the form of leaves to counter a blast of water from Shrimp Scorpi’s tail, which is not tied down by the vines. Squawky watches this in glee as Tails assault is weakening. Eventually, Shrimp Scorpi’s blast hits Tails, sending him flying into the frozen Yan Yan and Pigbirds.]
NARRATOR: Aw, shoot… [Cut to Tails lying on top of Yan Yan barely keeping his eyes open.] Tails…? Tails!
SQUAWKY: Yeah! The fox is down and out! [Smiles widely.] We may not need Shrimp Scorpi to absorb the water sprite and mermaid after all. Of course, I’ve got to get rid of the vines, but…
NARRATOR: You could always kill Tails yourself. And after that, you could break Shrimp Scorpi free. Of course, this is only a suggest—
SQUAWKY: [Pause.] Why didn’t I think of that? [Gets out her Omelet Bazooka.] The Sextet of Miracles will be one member short! [Runs off cackling.]
NARRATOR: Why did I have to say that?
[Cut to Knuckles, Sonic, Amy, Draco, and Raichu getting out of the water and landing on the shore.]
SONIC: [Sees Shrimp Scorpi trying to escape from the vines.] Well, at least Tails made things easy for us… even though that vine attack of his wears him out.
AMY: Yeah, but… where is he?
RAICHU: Uh… [Sees Squawky having Tails at gunpoint.] About to be blown to bits?
KNUCKLES: Okay. No time to lose. [To Amy and Draco]: You two take care of Squawky while Sonic, Raichu, and I take this overgrown bug down.
DRACO: Got it. [Grabs Amy and flies off.]
[Sonic, Knuckles, and Raichu turn their attention to Shrimp Scorpi, who is still struggling to get out of Tails’s vines.]
SONIC: Who’d like to go first?
RAICHU: That would be me. [Raises a paw at Shrimp Scorpi.] PK Topaz Beta!
[A bright yellow orb forms at the tip of Raichu’s paw and sprays bubbles that surround Shrimp Scorpi.]
SONIC: My turn! PK Sapphire Alpha!
[Electricity starts to surround Sonic’s quills before eventually surrounding his whole body. He holds his hands out and shoots small electric orbs at the bubbles created by Raichu. The electricity connects the bubbles with one another and fires several sparks at Shrimp Scorpi.]
RAICHU: Okay, Knuckles! It’s all you!
KNUCKLES: I was waiting for you to say that! [Glides towards Shrimp Scorpi.] PK Ruby Beta!
[Red energy swirls around Knuckles’s fist. He throws a punch, and the energy is shot and homes into Shrimp Scorpi.]
SHRIMP SCORPI: You…! [Roaring in pain from Knuckles, Sonic and Raichu’s attacks.]
[Knuckles lands next to Raichu and Sonic.]
KNUCKLES: [Seeing Shrimp Scorpi is not trying to break free from Tails’s vines as much due to constantly being hit by sparks.] Well, at least we’re making progress.
RAICHU: It looks like it’ll take a little more to bring him down, though.
SONIC: No problem! Let’s go!
[After Sonic, Knuckles, and Raichu head toward Shrimp Scorpi to deliver the final blow, the scene switches to Amy hitting gold, closed-eyed eggs with her hammer. Meanwhile, Draco was with Tails, Yan Yan, and the Pigbirds; the latter two she is trying to thaw with her fire breath. Amy hits another gold egg to Squawky, who is firing the eggs.]
SQUAWKY: [Ducks the egg sent by Amy and laughs.] Give it up, Rosy! Do you really think you’ll win? [Cocks her Omelet Bazooka.] If you do, I only have four words for you: Rest in peace, loser! [Shoots a few more eggs at Amy.]
AMY: PK Pearl Alpha!
[A pink fiery aura surrounds Amy’s hammer. She swings it, and the aura surrounding it becomes a fireball that burns the eggs into ashes.]
SQUAWKY: Okay… minor setback. [Sees Tails and Draco. Draco appears to be almost done with thawing out with Yan Yan.] I’ll move on to your buddies! [Shoots some sad-eyed purple eggs at Draco and Tails.]
AMY: Tails! Draco!
[Tails and Draco see the egg heading toward them. Draco grabs a now thawed out but uconscious Yan Yan and flies out of the way while Tails, using whatever energy he could muster, dives to the side. The egg hits the ground and explodes into sparkling dust.]
SQUAWKY: [Clinches teeth.] I’ll get you yet!
[Amy runs off with Draco flying behind her. Squawky, annoyed, goes after them while Tails watches the three go in the direction toward Shrimp Scorpi, who appears to be getting a beating from Sonic, Raichu, and Knuckles.]
TAILS: Boy… I wish Calumon was here… I could regain my energy, and Draco wouldn’t have to use up most of her energy to thaw out Yan Yan and her Pigbirds. [Looks at the frozen Pigbirds before his eyes start to droop.] Oh… [Falls asleep on the ground.] So tired… these powers are… wearing me out…
[Switch to Shrimp Scorpi finally breaking free from Tails’s vines but looks tired and battered up.]
RAICHU: Oh, my gosh… And just when things were looking up, too!
SONIC: No worries! Just after a few hits, he’ll— [Sees a closed eyed golden egg and narrowly dodges it.] Whoa! That was close.
SQUAWKY: [Appearing in front of Sonic, Knuckles, and Raichu.] Ha! It ain’t over yet!
NARRATOR: For crying out loud, this battle is going on forever and a day!
SQUAWKY: Shut up! [To Sonic, Knuckles, and Raichu]: The game is over! [Turns to Shrimp Scorpi to give it an order but suddenly does an anime wild take upon seeing his condition.] What the…?! But how…?!
SONIC: You were saying?
SQUAWKY: I, uh… [Sees Amy arriving and Draco landing next to her] Oh, good grief.
DRACO: If you don’t mind, we’ll finish off Shrimp Scorpi and end this. We’re already over the episode limit anyway.
SQUAWKY: [Turns red with steam coming out of her ears.] Who gives a chicken butt about the episode limit?! [To Shrimp Scorpi.] Kill ‘em! Now!
[Shrimp Scorpi aims his claws at Team Muyo.]
SONIC: [Turns to see Shrimp Scorpi charging his attack.] Oh, no you don’t! PK Sapphire Alpha! [Sonic charges up electricity again before shooting it out of his hands.]
KNUCKLES: PK Ruby Beta! [Red energy swirls around Knuckles’s fist before he throws a punch and shoots out the energy.]
AMY: PK Pearl Alpha! [Amy’s hammer is once again surrounded by a pink fiery aura, which becomes a fireball when Amy swings it.]
DRACO: PK Emerald Beta! [Draco takes a quick breath before firing two green fireballs from her mouth.]
RAICHU: PK Topaz Beta! [A bright yellow orb forms at the tip of Raichu’s paw and sprays bubbles.]
[All five attacks hit Shrimp Scorpi. Shrimp Scorpi roars once more before shaking and exploding into hundreds of sad scorpions, seals, and fish saying “We’ve lost!” whiningly as they scatter all over the beach and bury themselves in the sand.]
NARRATOR: Thank goodness that’s over.
[Squawky is stomping the ground and clucking in anger as a portal opens on the ground. She faces Team Muyo, lets out one last angry cluck, and jumps into the portal just before Piyoko runs up to it.]
PIYOKO: You’ll regret this… even though I’ve barely got screen time in this episode-pyo! [To herself]: I REALLY need to talk to my agent about this-pyo. [Jumps into the portal before it closes.]
DIGGER: [Appearing with an unconscious Neris and Elias.] Whew… it took me three hours to knock out the mermaid and another three to get here, but they’re ready for Shrimp Scorpi! Now… [Notices that Shrimp Scorpi is no longer around and Team Muyo looking at him angrily.] Oooh… this is awkward. I’m guessing I should leave the babes here and go.
[A portal opens up next to Digger. Digger eyes Elias and Neris, and then Amy and Draco.]
DIGGER: Maybe…
AMY: Forget it!
DRACO [Angrily]: Gaooo!
DIGGER: Okay! Okay! [Jumps into the portal before it closes.]
NARRATOR: So… what are you guys going to do with Yan Yan and Tails? And the Pigbirds? Oh, yeah… Elias and Neris don’t look that hot either.
SONIC: I think I got it…
***
[The scene is now in an apartment bedroom. Amy is at a computer. Fade to a closer look at the computer screen where a picture of Sonic is on the desktop and half of his face is covered by an IM window from Midori Yosei. Amy, who is Rosy Rascal, clicks the “Send” button.]
ROSY RASCAL: So… Sonic and Knuckles took over for Elias and Neris and Raichu for Yan Yan. Hope it wasn’t too much trouble for you, Thiana.
[A few seconds after Amy sends her message, a musical chime is heard.]
MIDORI YOSEI: It was nothing. You guys helped us out like usual.
[Amy types for a few seconds before clicking “Send”.]
ROSY RASCAL: I’m glad to hear that Elias and Neris are okay, though. What about Tails?
MIDORI YOSEI: He’s fine. All he needed was a little sleep. [Pause, then chime.] Oh, yeah. Yan Yan’s okay too. Just got an e-mail from Load Ran. Unfortunately, she also mentioned that the police found all of Yan Yan’s aquatic animals dead.
[Amy types again and clicks “Send”.]
ROSY RASCAL: I bet Squawky and Digger were behind it, and their kidnapping of Elias and Neris also had a hand in it.
[Pause, followed by the musical chime.]
MIDORI YOSEI: Oh, and I’ve told you that Dice and Domino couldn’t make the Seafood Platter Screw today because their seafood is gone, right? Wanna go out on a limb and say that was roped in too?
[Amy types and clicks “Send”.]
ROSY RASCAL: Yeah. I’m sure of it.
[Short pause, followed by the chime.]
MIDORI YOSEI: Whew… today was just weird… but then again, it’s nothing different… especially for a show like this.
[Amy giggles a bit as she types and clicks “Send”.]
ROSY RASCAL: Well, I’m getting tired, Thiana. I’ll chat with you tomorrow.
[Pause followed by the chime.]
MIDORI YOSEI: You too, Amy. Good night.
[Amy yawns and closes the IM window. A few seconds later, the computer screen goes black. The scene changes to Amy, now in a red gown, getting into her bed.]
END
[Curtain closes as a pink-haired girl with cat ears and a tail appear on a stage.]
PINK-HAIRED CATGIRL: So, what do you think?
[Scene cuts to Team Muyo sitting in the front row. They are accompanied by a creature with a leaf on her head and green buds resembling a necklace, a closed-eyed echidna with a long snout, a yellow underbelly and bluish-black fur; and a blue crocodile.]
TAILS: Well… aside from the fact that this isn’t the first episode and probably the battle being longer than it should, I really can’t say much.
KNUCKLES: Why are you starting with this episode anyway?
PINK-HAIRED CATGIRL: Well, Haruhi got away with it.
AMY: [Pause.] Oh, no. Please don’t tell me that all of them will be out of order like this.
PINK-HAIRED CATGIRL: [Taps foot for a few seconds.] Nah. The remaining sixty-six episodes will be in order.
LEAF CREATURE: [Does an anime wild take.] Sixty-six episodes?
PINK-HAIRED CATGIRL: Yep! Awesome, huh?
[Team Muyo, the leaf creature, the echidna, and the crocodile all have blank faces.]
PINK-HAIRED CATGIRL: I’m guessing it won’t be. Oh, well! I’ll show ‘em anyway! Team Muyo Forever!
NARRATOR: Oh, brother… [Switch to a blue-haired girl.] Sixty-six episodes to put up with this? Lord, help me…
NOW IT'S OVER
