Chapter Text

Hi there Jo! I can call you Jo right? Well anyway you were initially intended to be where I write my creatures and caverns campaign ideas and maybe the occasional fanfic. But why I don't tell who I am...My name is Marcy Wu! I'm 15 years old and I live in LA (Or at least I used to)  And I was a totally normal kid for the most part until one day after a...Event I ran off to a playground to...THINK YEAH! Think really hard but then A FREAKING ALIEN GUY SHOWED UP! And he gave me an alien device called the Omnitrix and it can transform me into different aliens! And after that things are going great! My friends and I got transported to another world filled with talking Frogs , Newts and Toads! I got taken in by a family of farming frogs , I got a four armed alien girlfriend! And I uh fought my....(teardrops begin to appear on different parts of the page) 

Marcy (closes her Journal and wipes her tears): "Maybe I should stop writing about that like you know think happy thoughts!" 

Sprig (Bursts the door and jumps around the room): "MARCY! MARCY! MARCY! MARCY!!!! IT'S TIME!!!" 

Marcy (laughs and picks Sprig up): "Haha okay you little goober just give me a few minutes and I'll be out there." 

Sprig: "Okay. SO EXITED WOOOOOOO!!!!" 

Sprig leaves the room and Marcy begins to pack her things. Marcy picks up the picture of Marcy and her friends. Marcy brings the pen she is holding close to Sasha's face but she lowers the pen and puts the picture in her pocket 

Marcy (Sighs): "Let it go Marcy just do what Grandma would tell you just leave it out of side and out of mind." 

Marcy leaves her room and walks upstairs and walks outside the house to find Hop-pop and the Plantars packing their things on the flwagon 

Oxalia (Walks out from behind the flwagon): "Marcy!...A word?"

Marcy: "Oh uh yeah sure!" 

Marcy and Oxalia walk to the forest with Marcy looking around at the wilderness around her until the two stop at a waterfall 

Marcy: "Hey Ox. This wouldn't have anything to do with that ship does it?" 

Oxalia: "It does." 

Marcy: "Oh..." 

Oxalia: "The more I think about it that ship IF WE FLY IT! It will cause lots of unwanted attention and no doubt attract Villgax to us." 

Marcy: "So your saying that using the ship is a bad idea?" 

Oxalia: "Pretty much." 

Oxalia: "Besides I know your not in a personal major rush to leave." 

Marcy (Weakly chuckles): "Guilty as charged." 

Loud booms can be heard as ripples can be seen in the pond below them. Oxalia grabs her battle axe and Marcy primes the Omnitrix 

Oxalia: "What was that?" 

Marcy: "Probably nothing good!" 

All of a sudden a Tyrannopede emerges from the forest and roars at Marcy and Oxalia 

Marcy (Deactivating the Omnitrix): "Phew! It's just Toga." 

Oxalia: "If this was any other Tyrannopede we would be a hundred percent dead!" 

Marcy (Petting Toga's snout while Toga makes a cooing noise): "I know it's only been a little less than a month but damn...TOGA GOT BIG!" 

Oxalia: "Tyrannopedes rapidly mature after a month or so of being born. I would say she's only slightly taller than the snail the plantars own." 

Marcy (Now rubbing Toga's belly): "And she's still one of the cutest things alive!" 

Oxalia (Curious): "Then who's the cutest?" 

Marcy (Turning to look at Oxalia): "Well the goober standing next to me that's who!" 

Oxalia (Blushing): "Oh you..." 

Marcy , Oxalia and Toga leave the forest and arrive outside the plantar house

Sprig: "You guys ready?" 

Marcy: "Yup!" 

Everyone gets inside the flwagon except Toga who remains outside 

Oxalia (Bumps her head on the roof): "Ouch could you have made the roof taller!?" 

Hop-pop (Hops up to bessies saddle): "WELL I TRIED I GUESS IT'S JUST NOT GOOD ENOUGH!!!" 

Oxalia: "And I thought I had a temper!"

Hop-pop: "Is everything ok Bessie?" 

Marcy (Peaking from below the saddle trapdoor): "Is everything ok Hop-pop?" 

Hop-pop: "Well we have so much weight inside the flwagon I think Bessie is struggling to move the flwagon." 

Oxalia (Notices that Sprig and Polly are looking at her): "Just so you know if you were all on Khoros I would put your heads on a pike." 

Hop-pop: "The point is we aren't going anywhere until we loose some weight." 

Hop-pop: "Welp! it's hopeless." 

Toga walks over to Bessie and communicates with her 

Toga (Translated from roars): "Excuse me kind madam but it appears you are having difficulty with pulling your carriage?" 

Bessie (Translated from Bessise's meows): "Oh howdy partner I would really appreciate it you helping me with this here carriage." 

Toga (Grabbing the reigns and putting near Hop-pop and roars which translates to): "Could you please attach me to your carriage kind sir?" 

The kids who were peaking outside of the flwagon windows 

Polly: "Did your pet monster just talk to our pet snail?" 

Marcy: "I think so?" 

Hop-pop: "I think she wants to help Bessie with the flwagon?" 

Toga (Translation and snorts): "You don't say!?" 

Marcy: "I guess we should help attach her to the flwagon?"

Oxalia: "I'll help you with that!"

Everyone sits on a couch inside the flwagon 

Hop-pop: "Ok gang here is the plan!" 

Hop-pop (Pulling out a book from a drawer): "Everyone please read this book and follow every rule." 

Oxalia (Grabs the book and reads through it super quickly): "This is by far one of the most insane and borderline pretentious in the way it's written only a control freak with deep seated survivors guilt! would write this!?" 

Everyone turns to look at Hop-pop with him now profusely sweating 

Hop-pop: "I....I....I uh I'm just going to get us going!" 

Hop-pop (Yelling down into the flwagon): "Most of those rules don't apply to Marcy and Oxalia!" 

Marcy and Oxalia celebrate quietly

Sprig: "WHAT!? Why do we have to follow the rules and they don't!?" 

Hop-pop (Yelling): "I'm pretty sure you and Polly do not have superpowers!" 

Sprig and Polly: "UGH!!!" 

Hop-pop begins to drive the flwagon and so the long journey begins...

After many days and Marcy and Oxalia having a few misadventures along the way. The plantars sat in the flwagon with Sprig and Polly being bored out of their minds 

Sprig (Bored): "I literally want to die." 

Polly: "Same."

Marcy (Noticing something outside): "Wow! Hey guys look over there!" 

Hop-pop: "That is the ruins of despair...Legends say it was made before written history. No one knows how it was made or who built it but...." 

Hop-pop (Stops the Flwagon): "DANGIT! The wheels gave out." 

Everyone leaves the flwagon

Hop-pop (Examines the flwagon): "Hmmmmmm...." 

Marcy: "How bad is it?" 

Hop-op: "Bad but not too bad I'm sure I could get it fixed in a few hours." 

Marcy: "Do you want me and Oxy to help?" 

Hop-pop: "Sure." 

Sprig grabs Polly and moves somewhere out of sight from the rest of the group 

Polly: "Sprig!? Have you lost your min-" 

Sprig (Putting his hand on Polly's mouth): "Polly the ruins of despair are right next to us everybody else is busy with the flwagon and they don't know where we are sooooo you thinking what I'm thinking?" 

Polly (Sprig removes his hand and Polly whispers): "Sprig what you are suggesting is so stupid it could get us killed...LETS DO IT!" 

Sprig and Polly move stealthily inside the ruins quietly giggling 

Sprig and Polly enter into a room covered in darkness 

Polly: "You know this place is pretty underwhelming." 

Sprig: "You wanna head back?" 

Polly: "Yup." 

Before they can leave the door behind them closes and the room now glows a bright blue 

Sprig: "Whoah..." 

Polly (Whispers): "You wanna touch everything?" 

Sprig (Yells): "YEAH!!!" 

Sprig and Polly explore the facility and of course press everything.

Marcy , Oxalia and Hop-pop finally fix the flwagon 

Marcy: "Phew! We're finished!" 

Oxalia: "Back on Khoros tasks like this are normally performed by servants." 

Hop-pop: "The part I don't understand is why you didn't use any of your monsters to help?" 

Marcy: "In my opinion using the watch just is an easy way out I need to be able to what's right...At least I try." 

Hop-pop: "Appreciate the sentiment kiddo." 

Oxalia: "Where did the other two get off to?" 

Marcy (Looking at the ruins before coming to a realization): "Oh no..." 

Hop-pop: "Your thinking what I'm thinking right?"

Marcy: "Yup." 

The trio run to the door of the ruins only to find it locked 

Oxalia: "Now what will we do?" 

Marcy (Switching through holograms of her alien forms): "I don't know we can't use Humungo she could easily cave them in."

Hop-pop: "Well then what do we do then?" 

Marcy (Stopping at one of her aliens): "I haven't used this one before but I've had her since I got the watch." 

Marcy slams the Omnitrix and transforms into the alien Upgrade 

Upgrade: "UPGRADE!!!!!" 

Upgrade: "AND! My voice didn't change." 

Hop-pop: "You know that was really underwhelming." 

Oxalia: "Same here I was really expecting something more impressive." 

Upgrade (Walks close to the door): "Hope this works..." 

Upgrade transforms into a flat puddle and slips through the crack under the door 

Upgrade (Reforms): "Ok I guess I can do that?" 

Upgrade (Noticing Sprig and Polly messing with the machinery and pressing buttons): "Uh guys what are you doing?" 

Sprig (Turns to look at Upgrade): "Oh hey Marcy cool new monster!" 

Upgrade: "She's not new I just never needed to use her up until now!" 

Polly: "Up until now?" 

Upgrade: "Hop-pop has been worried sick about you two! You need to come back with me now!" 

Sprig: "Heck no! This is our first chance at fun since we left the valley because Hop-pop has been such a control freak!" 

Upgrade: "Look I get it! Hop-pop is super controlling but at least I know he loves us and is trying to protect you!" 

Upgrade (Attempting to convince Sprig and Polly): "I can tell him that you two should accompany us when...SPRIG WHAT ARE YOU DOING!?" 

Sprig (Throwing Hop-pops rules of the roads into a console): "VIVA DE LA RESISTANCE!" 

The facility blares to life even more and machinery begins to be built 

Sprig: "Uh oh..." 

Upgrade: "This can't be good..." 

The Machines begin to build what appear to be frog like robots 

Sprig: "Whoa cool."  

Turrets begin to activate and target Sprig 

Sprig: "Uh oh." 

Facility Ai: "Traitor detected please stand by for termination." 

Upgrade: "SPRIG!!!" 

Upgrade forms a blaster from her hands and fires it at a turret destroying it 

Upgrade (looking at the blaster): "I can do that!?"  

Polly (Noticing more turrets emerging): "WE HAVE COMPANY!" 

The three run towards the control panel with Upgrade firing her blaster at the turrets

Polly: "NOW WHAT SHOULD WE DO!?" 

SPRIG: "PRESS A BUTTON PRESS ANY BUTTON!" 

Upgrade: "I think I have an idea!" 

Sprig: "WHAT'S THAT THEN!?" 

Upgrade (Merges with the control panel): "This!" 

Sprig: "OK BUT WHAT DO WE DO NOW!?" 

Upgrade: "Insert any kind of foreign object into the terminal!" 

Sprig (Looks around before finding Hop-pops book): "I've got something!" 

Polly: "WELL USE IT THEN!?" 

Sprig inserts Hop-pops book into the control panel causing it to crash 

Facility AI: "Error Error! System error. Error code...WHAT THE HECK WHAT THE HECK WHAT THE HECK!?" 

Upgrade (Unmerges from the panel): "OK GUYS! LETS GET OUT OF HERE!" 

The trio run towards the door but they struggle to open it

Sprig: "DANGIT! WERE STUCK IN HERE!" 

Oxalia (Punches the door creating a hole in the middle): "COME ON EVERYONE TAKE MY HAND!" 

The trio grabs Oxalia's hand and leave the facility right before it explodes 

Sprig (Pants and lying down): "We...We made it!" 

Polly (lying down): "On the one hand that was AWESOME! On the other hand that was terrifying!" 

Hop-pop (Scowling Sprig and Polly): "WHAT IN FROGS NAME WERE YOU THINKING! YOU COULD'VE GOTTEN YOURSELVES KILLED AND DON'T EVEN GET ME STARTED ON HOW MANY RULES YOU HAVE BROKEN!!!" 

Marcy (Now in human form): "Now hold on a second! The only reason they did that was because of how crazy your rules were!" 

Hop-pop: "Oh come on Marcy. I think your overreacting just a bit." 

Marcy: "I've read the book there is literally a rule where you can't strike a pose because apparently that invites disaster!" 

Hop-pop: "WELL IT DOES!" 

Marcy: "Besides I've seen what Sprig can do! The kid helped me save the town from those wasps I owe him one for that day." 

Hop-pop (Sighs): "Look Marcy I get where your coming from but you have to understand our family as never been outside the valley before and I just want to keep my family safe anyway I can and I thought I could do that with the book but it's clear that it didn't work!" 

Marcy: "HEY! What if whenever Sprig and Polly want to do something outside the flwagon myself and Oxalia go with them." 

Hop-pop: "You would do that?" 

Marcy: "Of course I'm basically their big sister at this point I would do anything to keep them safe!" 

Sprig and Polly: "Please Hop-pop!?" 

Hop-pop (Sighs): "Ok then."  

Sprig and Polly (Hugging Hop-pop): "Thank you THANK YOU THANK YOU!!!" 

Hop-pop (laughs): "OKAY OKAY! Tell you what there is a diner not far from here who wants go eat out?" 

Everyone: "WE DO!" 

Everyone returns to the flwagon and they begin to leave the ruins 

Hop-pop: "Say...You guys wouldn't know what happened to my book would you?"

Marcy: "Oh Sprig had to shove it inside the facility to destroy the facility so uh your book is kind of destroyed." 

Hop-pop: "SAY WHAT!!!????"

Epilogue...

The Enforcer: "Did they come here?"

Alvin (Taking samples from remnants of the ruins of despair): "They were here scans indicate a Tetramand and a Galvanic Mechamorph were in this location." 

The Enforcer: "Can you track it?" 

Alvin: "Of course I can!" 

The Enforcer: "Then we will track them down and either they join us!" 

The Enforcer (Grabs a rock and crushes it): "Or they fall to out might!"

To be continued!

Chapter Text

A young Newt Boy wanders the halls of the hotel with a lit candle which he holds while trembly 

Newt Boy: "Hel...Hello!? Mom! Dad! Where are you!?" 

A monster unseen by the boy stalks him 

Newt Boy: "Tiff is that you! Because if this is you! then you are in so much trouble!" 

The monster emerges from the shadows and roars but he remains unseen by us but it is seen by the Newt Boy 

The Newt Boy: "No! NO! WAIT PLEASE NO!" 

The Monster roars and pounces at the newt boy 

The Newt Boy: "AGGHHHHHH!!!" 

Marcy: "AGGGHHHH DAMN IT!" 

Marcy (Playing a video game on her gaming console): "I died again!" 

Oxalia: "I've never seen you play this game before?" 

Marcy: "Oh its a game called Doom. It's basically about where demons from hell attack Mars and you are the only one who can stop it!" 

Oxalia (Eating a snack): "Oh Doom? Isn't that game in 8-bit?" 

Marcy: "Wait you know what doom is!?" 

Oxalia: "Of course most species just tend to port and translate human media its why a lot of us know English." 

Marcy: "Don't you guys make your own stuff?" 

Oxalia: "We do but everyone is so focussed on trying to surpass each other entertainment and media is just kind of...ignored." 

Marcy: "Yeesh what a terrible world you live in." 

Sprig and Polly jump down into flwagon and Sprig shakes himself off due to his clothes being soaking wet from the rain outside 

Marcy: "So how bad is it out there?" 

Sprig: "It's pouring out there!" 

Polly: "Heh I only wear a bowtie. "I AM ABOVE YOU ALL!!!" 

Sprig (Jumps onto Marcy's shoulder): "OOOH! What 'cha ya playing?" 

Marcy: "Doom." 

Sprig: "OOOH! I have no idea what that is but can you play it for me!?" 

Marcy: "I don't know this game is a bit much you could get nightmares." 

Sprig: "PLEASE!!!!!!!!!?????" 

Marcy: "Okay fine but just so you know I tried to warn you." 

Sprig: "Warn me of what?" 

Marcy unpauses her game and Sprig watches in shock and horror as the Doomslayer rips and tears through a horde of demons and kills them in brutal fashion 

Sprig (Whispers): "I need to go." 

Sprig enters the bathroom and begins to throw up 

Sprig: "I was a fool! A FOOL!!! I'M NOW TRAUMATISED FOR LIFE!!!" 

Polly (Observing the gameplay): "Mmmm Polly likey." 

Hop-pop (Jumping down inside the flwagon): "Bad news this storm probably won't be ending anytime soon." 

Polly: "Hop-pop we can't sleep through that!"

Hop-pop: "Well why not!? Back in my day we didn't even have beds!" 

Thunder claps and startles Hop-pop 

Hop-pop: "GAHHHH!!! Okay you may have a point." 

Oxalia (Looking out the window): "Uh guys? Is that a place we could stay the night?" 

Hop-pop: "Where not staying anywhere other than the flwagon!" 

Marcy: "I don't mind sleeping in the flwagon but I'm just worried about Bessie and Toga while I don't know if they behave the same way Earth animals do I do know that most animals are spooked during storms." 

Hop-pop: "Bessie isn't afraid of anything!" 

Hop-pop (Heading up to Bessie): "Ain't that right Bessie?" 

Bessie and Toga look freaked out and on the verge of loosing it 

Hop-pop (Back inside the flwagon): "Fine hotel it is." 

The flwagon begins to move towards the hotel on a dark and stormy night 

The group enter the hotel with Marcy observing and getting slightly freaked out at the tall gothic architecture 

Hotel clerk (Almost robotic in tone): "Welcome to the Mystique hotel how can we help you?" 

Hop-pop: "A room for five please?" 

Hotel clerk: "I'm sorry sir but we have no room in the hotel big enough for five people." 

Hop-pop: "Well can we get separate rooms?" 

Hotel clerk: "Of course you and your family can get a shared room and your pets can also share a room." 

Oxalia (Pulling out her axe and shouting): "YOU DARE CALL ME A PET!? I WILL PERSONALLY SKIN YOU ALIVE AND FEED YOUR BONES TO YOUR FAMILY!!!!" 

Marcy (Grabbing Oxalia's shoulder): "WHOAH OXY!? Chill she didn't mean to insult you! She just didn't know any better." 

Oxalia (Lowering her axe and looking at Marcy before turning to the clerk): "Oh...I'm terribly sorry about that." 

Hotel clerk: "Oh I've delt with worse this is nothing new." 

Hotel clerk (Handing Hop-pop and Marcy the keys): "Anyhoo here are your room keys and we hope you enjoy your stay!" 

As everyone begins to head towards their rooms Marcy saw eyes staring at her from the darkness 

Marcy (Turning to look at Oxalia): "Hey Oxy did you see that!?" 

Oxalia (Looking at Marcy): "See what?" 

Marcy (Turning to point at where the eyes were): "That!" 

Oxalia (Looks but doesn't see anything): "I don't see anything." 

Marcy (looks at the direction of the eyes but they are not there): "Never mind just...Must be tired." 

Oxalia: "Lets get moving Hop-pop and the other two are probably already at their room." 

Marcy: "Heh yeah."

The gang arrive at the 10th floor of the hotel 

Hop-pop (Turning to look at Marcy and Oxalia): "Myself Sprig and Polly will be just down the hall so if you need anything just give us a shout!" 

Marcy: "Okie dokie Hop-pop." 

Hop-pop: "Oh and somebody left a note on the elevator saying that there aren't any bathrooms in the rooms but there is one in the lobby area of the hotel." 

The Plantars leave to head to their rooms 

Marcy: "That's weird." 

Oxalia: "What's weird?" 

Marcy: "Every hotel has some kind of a bathroom in each room." 

Oxalia: "I think your just being paranoid." 

Marcy: "Maybe your right but you at least think its weird too right?" 

Oxalia: "It's weird but all species are pretty weird when you stop and think about it."

Oxalia: "I mean on Khoros we don't wash our hands." 

Marcy: "YOU DON'T!?" 

Oxalia (Chuckles): "Yup instead of washing our hands we put them in a weak acid." 

Marcy: "That's messed up!" 

Oxalia: "Not really once you actually do it. Its actually pretty normal in fact some species would react the same way you did to the concept of washing ones hands at all!" 

Marcy (Walking with Oxalia to their room): "The galaxy is so cool! I wish I could see it someday!" 

Oxalia: "Maybe when we leave this plave...Maybe you can." 

Marcy: "I'd love that." 

Oxalia (Marcy and Oxalia arrive at the door and Oxalia opens it): "Well were here." 

Oxalia and Marcy enter the room and Oxalia closes the door. The two begin to wander the room and observe room 

Marcy: "Well at least it looks nice-" 

Oxalia (beginning to kiss Marcy): "I can name other things in the room that look nice." 

Marcy (Also kissing Oxalia): "OH YOU!" 

Marcy pulls away for a second and grabs her phone 

Marcy: "Wanna watch a movie?" 

Oxalia: "What movie?" 

Marcy (Shows Oxalia an Image of the movie): "Invasion of the mind snatchers!" 

Oxalia: "What's it about?" 

Marcy (Says in a creepy tone): "Its about an alien species that invades Earth and takes over peoples minds bending them to their will!" 

Oxalia (Trying to make a bad joke): "Sure and the alien species wouldn't be called the HIGHBREED!? WOULD THEY HA!" 

Marcy: "Uh no and they are called the Snatchers and what's a Highbreed?"

Oxalia: "Never mind lets just get watching." 

Marcy starts playing the movie and Oxalia and Marcy get comfy on the couch 

After the movie ends Marcy and Oxalia hear a knock at the door. Oxalia opens the door and finds Hop-pop looking worried 

Hop-pop: "Sorry to bother you two but you wouldn't know where Sprig and Polly went would you?" 

Marcy: "No they never came in to us." 

Hop-pop (Freaking out): "Oh Frog this bad. THIS IS REALLY BAD!!!" 

Marcy: "WOAH! DUDE CALM DOWN! Oxalia and I will help you find them." 

Hop-pop: "Really!?" 

Oxalia: "Of course them and Marcy are basically siblings it would be cruel not to help!" 

Oxalia: "Why don't myself and Hop-pop stay here on this floor and you check the lobby." 

Marcy (Gulps): "By myself?" 

Oxalia: "You aren't scared are you?"

Marcy (Insistent): "NO I'M NOT!" 

Oxalia: "Then it's settled and we all meet back here if any one of us get lost." 

Everyone parts their separate ways and begins the search 

Marcy is down at the lobby of the hotel and uses her phone as a flashlight 

Marcy (Trembling): "I'm not scared I'm fine I'm doing great actually!" 

Marcy hears a footstep and gets spooked but the light shines on a frog wearing pieces of cardboard 

Cardboard Frog: "Yes I'm a frog wearing cardboard we exist." 

Marcy: "Uh...." 

Cardboard Frog: "I'm just...I'm just going to go."  

Marcy (backs away from the frogs former position slowly): "PHEW! I'm just glad it was just a frog and not some kind of-" 

Marcy bumps into a monster behind her the monster has a raspy breath and growls quitley 

Marcy (Whimpering): "Monster..." 

The monster roars as Marcy uses her phone to illuminate the beast. The monster has sickly brownish yellow skim sharp teeth a long tail and claws and 3 eyes with the being green with a red pupil 

Marcy (Screams at the top of her lungs): "AGGGGHHGGHHGGHGHGH!!!!!" 

The monster swings its claws at her and Marcy dodges and activates the Omnitrix and slams it 

Humungosaur: "HUMUNGOSAUR!!!" 

Humungosaur begins to punch the monster and the monster slashes its claws at Humungosaur but Humungosaur grabs its arm and tries to throw it but the monster coils itself on Humungosaurs arm and bits down and proceeds to pin Humungosaur to the ground 

Humungosaur: "OWWWW! THAT HURT!" 

The monster attempts to finish Humungosaur off until a hand grabs the monster and throws it away from Humungosaur 

Humungosaur: "What the-" 

???: "Come with me or your dead in the next ten seconds vermin!" 

The Stranger throws a grenade of some kind at the monster which emitted a loud noise spooking it off 

Humungosaur: "Thanks for the assist." 

???: "You will not thank me vermin! Now we must move it will not distract it for long 

The Humungosaur follows the Stranger to a staff room and the stranger closes the door and Humungosaur reverts back to Marcy

Marcy: "Man I owe you one for that." 

???: "As I said you will not thank me vermin!" 

Marcy: "Whoa jeez dude uncalled for!" 

Marcy: "Can you at least tell me who you are and what the hell that monster was!?" 

Reinrassig: "I am Reinrassig III a former admiral of the Highbreed empire and that thing that attacked you is a Timormorph." 

Marcy: "A WHAT!?" 

Reinrassig: "A Timormorph. It was a weapon...One of many that my people created during the third galactic war."  

Marcy: "Whoah an alien bioweapon very and not very cool." 

The door opens and Oxalia enters the room 

Oxalia: "Marcy are you alright!? I heard you scream!" 

Oxalia notices Reinrassig and pulls out her battle axe 

Oxalia (Angry): "HIGHBREED!!!" 

Reinrassig (Also Angry): "TETRAMAND!!!" 

Marcy gets between them 

Marcy: "OXY!!! STOP! He saved my life he's not here to hurt us!" 

Oxalia (Angry): "THEN WHY IS HE HERE!?" 

Marcy: "He says he is here for the monster I fought something called a Timormorph." 

Oxalia: "A Timormorph......A TIMORMORPH IS HERE!!!!???" 

Marcy: "You know what they are!?" 

Reinrassig: "Of course she knows what they are! After all your kind fought mine in the last war." 

Marcy: "What war!?" 

Reinrassig: "Enough questions vermin!" 

Oxalia: "Agreed we don't have long before it finds us." 

Marcy , Oxalia , Reinrassig leave the room with both Reinrassig and Oxalia pulling out their weapons. They walk upstairs with Reinrassig looking at some kind of tracker 

Marcy: "OK! YOU NEED TO ANSWER MY QUESTIONS!!!" 

Reinrassig: "No I do not." 

Oxalia: "I think you do." 

Reinrassig: "Very well..."  

Reinrassig: "Our people the Highbreed empire were once the most powerful species in our galaxy in part because we were the first life in the universe." 

Oxalia: "Which in terms of you being the first is very dubious." 

Reinrassig: "If you wish for answers then do not interrupt me." 

Reinrassig: "Anyways our people were so advanced our technology looked like magic to lower lifeforms. But our despite all our accomplishments were not gods." 

Reinrassig: "As the first species of the cosmos we believed that we were...We are superior to other forms of life and they should see our existence as a gift they do not deserve." 

Reinrassig: "But as I said our people were not gods hundreds of thousands of years if not millions of years of selective breeding came at a cost..." 

Oxalia: "You mean eugenics?" 

Reinrassig: "As I said do not interrupt!"

Reinrassig: "Our people were dying. And if we were the first life in the Universe so too shall we be the last." 

Marcy: "Does that mean what I think it means?" 

Oxalia: "Galaxy wide genocide of all life before they go extinct? Yup." 

Reinrassig: "Our galaxy was just the start we planned to wipe out all life in the universe but we made a discovery that threw a...Wrench into our plans." 

Marcy: "What was it?" 

Reinrassig: "Our scientists discovered that alternate realties exist and our plans had to go beyond our current scope and so we made plans to make our conquest multiversal in scope."

Reinrassig: "But before we could stage this one massive counter attack was staged against our homeworld lead by the Galvan first thinker Azmuth." 

Reinrassig: "Stories claim that no one died on that day because with a flash of light...Our people were cured of our sickness." 

Reinrassig: "The machine that saved our kind was the very device you wear on your wrist." 

Marcy: "Wait the watch can do that!?" 

Reinrassig: "Yes and much more." 

Marcy: "Well that does explain why didn't you react to the Omnitrix."

Reinrassig: "Although I don't understand why he gave the watch to another human I thought he learned his lesson from that?" 

Marcy: "Wait I'm not the first? I thought the Omnitrix was given to me because only I was worthy enough to wield it?" 

Reinrassig: "The first thinker is known for being secretive I'm sure there is much he didn't tell you." 

A loud bang is heard from the halls and Marcy's uses her phone as a light to illuminate the hall

Marcy: "What the heck was that!?" 

Reinrassig: "I'm too late...The hive is beginning to spread." 

A humanoid monster emerges from the shadows and charges towards Marcy , Reinrassig and Oxalia. Marcy activates the Omnitrix and slams it and transforms 

Big Chill: "BIG CHILL!!!!" 

Big Chill: "Lets put you on ice!" 

Big Chill fires a beam of ice at the monster freezing it solid 

Reinrassig: "Foolish choice vermin! DNALIENS prefer colder environments you could have just given it power boost for all we know!?" 

Oxalia: "Didn't you create the DNALIENS? surely you know that's not how it works?" 

Reinrassig: "DNALIENS rely upon a foreign species as a host for all we know these creatures could melt through that ice like a Pyronite!?" 

The Omnitrix begins to beep and the logo on Big Chill's chest begins to blink 

Omnitrix: "Genetic damage detected in range." 

Big Chill (Looking down at the Omnitrix): "Wait Omnitrix was that you?" 

Omnitrix: "Genetic damage detected in range authorize genetic repair?" 

Big Chill: "Uh...authorize?" 

Omnitrix: "Voice authorization confirmed please make contact with target to initiate repair." 

Big Chil (Breaks the ice and places her hand on the DNALIENS forhead): "Hope this works!" 

Omnitrix: "Initiating genetic repair." 

The Omnitrix with a flash of green light cures the DNALIEN cured with the Xenocyte falling to the floor and Marcy is back in human form however a Newt in unusual clothing stands in place where the DNALIEN once stood 

???: "What happened?" 

Reinrassig: "A Xenocyte infected your mind it transformed you." 

??? (Backing away from them): "GAH WHAT THE HECK ARE YOU!? WHO THE HECK ARE YOU!?" 

Marcy: "That story might be at least a twenty episode series." 

???: "But still what are you!?" 

Reinrassig: "We are superior lifeforms Salamander bask in our presence or die!" 

Oxalia: "Classic Highbreed even in peace times you still desire genocide!" 

Reinrassig: "SILENCE TETRAMAND!"  

Marcy (getting between them): "GUYS STOP! Your scaring her!" 

They turn to look and find the Newt cowering away from them 

Marcy: "I'm sorry that they're scaring you but I want to know who you are? I've never seen a Newt like you before!" 

Charlie: "I'm Charlie...Charlie Ginastein." 

Marcy: "Well it's nice to meet you Charlie! I'm Marcy! Marcy Wu." 

Charlie: "But what exactly are you?" 

Oxalia: "In short we are alien beings from another dimension." 

Reinrassig: "Do you have any memories from before your infection?" 

Charlie: "The last thing I remember was that monster fleeing below ground but beyond that nothing else." 

Reinrassig: "I should have known...It's hiding in the basement." 

Oxalia: "And this is where the classic Highbreed treachery kicks in. Leaving out valuable information until it's too late!" 

Reinrassig: "Timormorphs seek out the darkest place in any area often a attic or basement."  

Marcy: "Then we need to head to the basement." 

Reinrassig: "Agreed." 

Marcy helps Charlie to her feat and the group begins to make their way down to the basement. 

Sprig wakes up and finds himself strapped to a organic looking wall 

Sprig: "Uhhh...Where am I?" 

Timormorph: "Good you are finally awake." 

Sprig (Screaming): "What the heck are you!?" 

Timormorph (Slowly grabbing Sprig): "I am the cleansing fire of this world , The endless storm , The incurable disease , I AM THE TIMORMORPH!" 

Sprig (Recoiling): "Yeesh your breath smells bad." 

Timormorph: "Quite vermin! You shall be made pure." 

Sprig (Kicks the Timormorph): "Eat feat!  

The Timormorph stunned by Sprig's attack accidently drops Sprig allowing him to flee 

Sprig (Pants): "Phew! Glad I got away from him! But what even was that thing? You know what! Not the best time to think about that!" 

Sprig begins to search for his family and Oxalia 

Marcy , Charlie , Oxalia and Reinrassig search the basement but Marcy and Charlie look tired because of Reinrassig and Oxalia's constant bickering 

Charlie: "Do they always argue like this?" 

Marcy: "We only met Reinrassig a few hours ago and I guess they bicker like this." 

The group hear a loud boom from the top vent and the Timormorph emerges from it and attacks 

Charlie: "EEP THE MONSTER!!!" 

Marcy activates the Omnitrix and transfoms into an alien  

Chromastone: "CHROMASTONE!!!" 

The Timormorph slashes it's claws at Chromastone but Chromastone doesn't even react 

Chromastone: "Newsflash buddy! I'm made of diamond! You can't break diamond!" 

Timormorph (Makes a sickly sounding laugh): "Fool my kind have slain you rockborn before." 

Oxalia: "It speaks?" 

Chromastone (Worried): "Are they supposed to do that!?" 

Reinrassig: "No." 

The Timormorph jumps at Reinrassig but with the struggling against each other 

Timormorph (Muffled due to biting down on Reinrassigs arm): "Hello father!" 

Reinrassig (Struggling): "Hello specimen CN2008-10." 

Timormorph: "Do you like my efforts here? Do I please you father?" 

Reinrassig (Throws the Timormorph): "No you do not." 

Oxalia jumps on top of the Timormorph's back and tries to strangle it 

Oxalia: "How did you track us abomination!?" 

Timormorph (Struggles while laughing): "The vibration of discordance is my favourite thing to listen to Tetramand!" 

The Timormorph throws and then restrains Oxalia and attempts to finish Oxalia off but Chromastone shoots a laser bean at the Timormorph 

Chromastone: "If your cronies love the cold so much I'm assuming you guys aren't fans of heat especially lasers." 

The Timormorph roars in pain and retreats up the vent 

Marcy (reverts to human form): "Now with that taken care of did anybody else hear that thing call Reinrassig father?" 

Oxalia (Angrily): "Yes I also couldn't help but notice that as well?" 

Reinrassig (Sighs): "Yes it did call me that and it's for a good reason." 

Marcy: "Then why!?" 

Reinrassig: "Because I created the Timormorphs and not just that one but the entire species." 

Reinrassig: "For the longest time our species used the DNALIENS as foot soldiers and when the highbreed war as you call it started they were very effective at first. But over time they proved to be no longer as effective, We needed a way to conquer planets more effectively and so I authorized the Timormorph programme, And when we tested them on a planet with a tech level of 16 ,And the Timormorphs exceeded our expectations but despite their effectiveness they did not win us the war." 

Marcy: "But that doesn't explain why that thing can talk?" 

Reinrassig: "Timormorphs are connected to High Command and are mindless beasts but High command can not give orders from that far and remote so we created one specimen to send to the nearest universe,  But in order for it to function we gave it sentience and hoped it would transform this world into a barren waste land." 

Oxalia: "Now I know why you disgust me so! You are THE ADMIRAL REINRASSIG III of Augstaka the butcher of Encephalonus IV the scourge of Petropia and yet...The great betrayer of the Highbreed Imperium." 

Marcy: "Wait so this guy is a big deal!?" 

Reinrassig: "Yes I am a big deal. But over the course of the war I realised how much damage we were causing and if we were truly above these vermin! Then why were we fighting them at all? And so after the battle of Poiana Lüncas and a new front was opened in the Andromeda galaxy, I faked my own death and told the Galvan and their allies all they needed to know to stop the Highbreed. It spared me the fate of the other admiralty , but I was still punished and so now I hunt Timormorphs wherever they are as this is both my damnation and my penance." 

Oxalia (Laughing): "You think a Highbreed like yourself can just seek forgiveness after all that bloodshed!? Like hell you'll get forgiveness from us!" 

Marcy (gets between them): "Stop! You guys need to stop arguing! That thing found us in the first place by you two arguing!" 

Oxalia: "Do you have any idea how much these demons cost us!?" 

Marcy (Angrily): "NO! Then educate me!" 

Oxalia (Sighs): "Unlike humans Tetramands have larger families and so I had many brothers and sisters, When the Empire of Khoros joined the war against the Highbreed it was seen as a war greater and more important than all the others and almost all my older siblings enlisted along with so many others. There was so much hope at the time but as time went on and people started coming home we knew this war was not about fighting for glory but for the survival of life itself. Some of them came home in body bags others came home alive but with lost limbs along with other serious injuries. And those who avoided physical injuries would have to live with the horrors of war." 

Reinrassig: "As much as you hate us Highbreed suffered too, Many of our troops thought that we were fighting for the glory of our great empire but they were unaware how much blood will be on their hands, And...My own children fought in that war." 

Oxalia: "You say that as if you actually care about them." 

Reinrassig: "Because I do... All 72 of my children fought...Most of them went missing or died on the front and at the wars end only my youngest daughter and son survived and they blamed me for that war and have refused to speak to me." 

Oxalia (Shouts anrgily): "Your kind are nothing but monsters heartless , And cruel!" 

Reinrassig (Grabs Oxalia): "And you Tetramands are honourbond savage fools!" 

Marcy (gets between them): "STOP!" 

Marcy: "I don't know how bad that war was but on Earth we have a saying..." 

Marcy (Gets Dramatic): "That War...War never changes. But people do." 

Marcy: "Oxy, Reinrassig isn't perfect but if he was truly the evil monster you made him out to be then I'm fairly certain he would kill us all on the spot. But yet he hasn't!" 

Reinrassig: "You are not wrong to hate my people Tetramand...I hate them too but we cannot let the past claim us because in the end we have all suffered from that war." 

Reinrassig: "And I'm still growing and I'm learning to be better." 

Oxalia: "You really mean that?" 

Reinrassig: "I do." 

Marcy: "Well I'm glad we are starting to reconcile and all. But we need to get moving who knows where that Timormorph got off to!" 

Reinrassig and Oxalia: "RIGHT!" 

The group go deeper into the basement and continue searching for the Timormorph

Sprig wanders around the Timormorph hive 

Sprig: "Hello?" 

Sprig: "HELLO!?" 

Sprig hears inhuman noises and a DNALIEN emerges from the shadows  

Sprig: "AHHHHHHHH!!!!!" 

Sprig runs and tries to use his slingshot to slow down the DNALIEN but Sprig gets cornered  

Sprig: "Oh man." 

Sprig winces but Sprig feels a flash of heat pass him and the DNALIEN is gone. As soon as he opens his eyes he feels somebody hugging him 

Swampfire: "You have no idea how glad I am to see you." 

Sprig: "Same here." 

Reinrassig: "Did we really have to rescue this vermin?" 

Swampfire (Lets go of Sprig and stands up): "He's basically family it's why I was helping you in the first place." 

Reinrassig: "With your mission complete do you intend to leave this place?" 

Swampfire: "If this thing is going to cause as much damage as you say it will then I have to help!" 

Oxalia: "As do I." 

Reinrassig: "Then lets get moving." 

Marcy (Now back to human): "Agreed." 

The Timormorph tries to use a machine with DNALIENS guarding him 

Timormorph: "When we release the Xenocyte eggs into the atmosphere this entire planet will belong to the Highbreed Imperium!" 

The DNALIENS cheer for the master. A blaster bolt is fired at the Timormorph which it dodges and growls and Reinrassig emerges 

Timormorph (Gets up and snarls): "Why are trying to stop me father!? The war isn't over!" 

Reinrassig: "We lost CN2008-10 and the galaxy is better for it." 

Timormorph: "You betrayed us?" 

Reinrassig: "There was too much blood on our hands I had to stop it for a better future." 

Timormorph: "THEN DIE!" 

The Timormorph lunges at Reinrassig but Oxalia jumps out and begins beating the Timormorph with her bare hands 

Oxalia (First punch): "This is for Abdon VI!" 

Oxalia (Second punch): "This is for Javalon II!" 

Oxalia (Final punch that sends the Timormorph flying): "AND THIS IS FOR KHOROS!" 

The Timormorph gets knocked into a wall and when it gets up Marcy is standing before it 

Timormorph: "Do you believe I fear you shapeshifter!?" 

Marcy (Primes the Omnitrix): "No but this might!" 

Marcy slams the Omnitrix and transforms into a small robotic alien 

Echo-Echo: "ECHO-ECHO!!!" 

Timormorph: "A Sonarosian!?" 

Reinrassig: "You didn't think I would forget the vulnerability to sonic frequencies your kind have would you?" 

Echo Echo duplicates herself 

Echo-Echo: "WALL OF SOUND!!!!" 

Echo-Echo screams causing the Timormorph to disintegrate into nothing more but a pile of bones 

Echo-Echo (Merging back together with the duplicates): "That's it?" 

Reinrassig: "The Timormorph was designed to be vulnerable to certain frequencies as a failsafe if they ever got out of control." 

Oxalia notices a DNALIEN is about to attack Reinrassig 

Oxalia (Pushes Reinrassig out of the way): "WATCH OUT!!!" 

Oxalia punches the DNALIEN sending it flying 

Reinrassig: "You saved me...Why?"  

Oxalia: "If we are to save this world then we must bury the scars of the past." 

Reinrassig: "The sentiment is shared Tetramand." 

Marcy (Screams): "Not to be a party pooper but...CAN SOMEBODY HELP TURN THIS THING OFF!!!" 

Reinrassig (runs over and uses voice authentication to override the bomb): "Voice authentication! Admiral Reinrassig III override code! EPSILON VI - CETI III!" 

Xenocyte bomb: "Override code accepted." 

Marcy looks out at the knocked out bodies of the DNALIENS 

Marcy: "What about them?" 

Reinrassig (hands Marcy a small grenade like object): "Throw this. The gas should kill the Xenocytes and free the others." 

Reinrassig activates a device on his wrist that creates a portal but Oxalia stops him before he leaves. 

Oxalia: "Before you go I want you to know something." 

Reinrassig: "And what's that?" 

Oxalia: "I will never forgive you and your people for all the suffering you inflicted. But I can't keep hating you." 

Reinrassig (Pauses for a awhile): "The sentiment is shared Tetramand." 

Reinrassig (Holds out his hand): "Till we meet again Oxalia of Khoros." 

Oxalia (Shakes his hand): "To you as well Reinrassig of Augstaka." 

Reinrassig walks through the portal and it quickly closes behind him. Oxalia turns to find the DNALIENS now returned to normal with Charlie hugging her family, And Marcy helping Hop-pop to his feat and Sprig

Hop-pop: "What happened? 

Marcy: "It's a long time." 

Marcy checks her phone to see the time 

Marcy: "It's only two in the morning why don't we get back to bed?" 

Hop-pop: "Agreed I feel like I've been stepped on by a Tarantula." 

Marcy: "Why don't you guys so ahead of me I'll catch up." 

The plantars begin to head upstairs Marcy walks towards Oxalia and kisses her on the lips 

Marcy: "I'm proud of you today, You know that?"

Oxalia: "There is nothing to be proud of I just did my duty as a soldier." 

Marcy: "It's more than that you we're willing to risk your life to saves his and that takes a lot of power and lot of courage...More than I would ever have." 

Oxalia: "Mar-" 

Marcy: "Lets talk more tomorrow because if I don't get some rest I'm going to collapse in the next thirty seconds." 

The two walk to the room holding hands 

Epilogue 

Enforcer: "Were they here?" 

Alvin: "They were." 

Javi: "Did you figure out where they are going?" 

Alvin: "I'm a Galvan not a drone but it appears that they are on course to Newtopia." 

Enforcer: "Send the word to Andrias...We have visitors coming." 

TO BE CONTINUED!

Chapter Text

We open with the flwagon arriving in a large town with merchants and markets everywhere everywhere 

Sprig (Exited): "Are we already in Newtopia!?" 

Hop-pop: "Nope! We are actually in the town of Stonegi one of the biggest trading towns in all of Amphibia." 

Oxalia: "Now that reminds of me Aranhascimmia." 

Marcy: "Aranhascimmia?"   

Oxalia: "It's the homeworld of the Arachnichimps essentially one of the largest trading hubs in the milky way galaxy it's only just behind Petropia in terms of wealth." 

Oxalia (Reclines on her bed): "Of course everybody knows that Arachnichimps are nothing but backstabbing con-artists." 

Marcy: "Sounds kind of racist?" 

Oxalia: "No really my parents bought a Petro sapien necklace off an Arachnichimp once...I'm not sure they have paid back their debts yet." 

Marcy: "Yeesh never mind." 

The flwagon stops at the marketplace and everybody gets out of the flwagon 

Hop-pop: "Okay everyone I think after yesterday night's...Shenanigans we all need a little break so I'm going to look what they have for sale. You kids have fun." 

Sprig: "YAAAAAYYYYYY!!!!"

Polly: "YOUR THE BEST HOP-POP!" 

Hop-pop (grabs Spig and Polly before they run off): "NOW HOLD IT! Marcy and Oxalia will be watching you." 

Sprig and Polly: "AWWWW MAN!!!" 

Sprig and Polly grumble as Oxalia and Marcy walks with them. Marcy activates the Omnitrix and transforms into her Newt self 

Oxalia (Looking around at the available products): "Yeesh this place really is like Aranhascimmia." 

Marcy: "I don't see what's so bad about this?" 

Oxalia (Picking up some kind daggar): "This daggar costs 800 coppers that's just nuts!" 

Marcy: "Yeesh! That is expensive!" 

Oxalia: "I'm just glad Hop-pop kept his wallet on him. Who knows what Sprig and Polly might buy with it!" 

Marcy: "That reminds me of the time Sasha stole her Dads credit card! Man he was not happy with Sasha about that." 

Oxalia: "I still can't believe you were even friends with her in the first place! She has no honour and no respect and now she's even a thief!" 

Marcy: "HEY! Sash made some mistakes but she isn't a horrible person!" 

Oxalia: "You wouldn't happen to have forgotten toad tower would you!?" 

Marcy: "NO! But...I do try to." 

Oxalia: "Don't, It's best to remember the past to learn from it. But we should never let it consume us."

Marcy: "Thanks Oxy." 

Oxalia (Hearing Sprig and Polly getting into trouble): "Your-HEY SPRIG PUT THAT BACK NOW!" 

Sprig: "You have to catch me first!" 

Polly: "ME TOO!!!"

Oxalia: "I'll get Sprig and Polly why don't you look around you need a break." 

Marcy (With a tired expression): "Yeah that's fine." 

Oxalia chases Sprig and Polly and Marcy begins to look around the store

Marcy (Holds the dagger): "Man thing's in this store can't be that expensive!" 

Marcy accidently drops the dagger 

Marcy: "Aw man." 

???: "Need some help there?" 

Marcy: "OH! Um...uh thank you." 

???: "Never seen you before, You out of town?" 

Marcy (Sweats profusely): "Uh I'm from..uh...WARTWOOD!" 

???: "You ok? You seem nervous? Eh you know, I'm used to it." 

Marcy: "Why are you used to it?" 

???: "Eh most people who know who I am tend to react like that." 

Marcy: "Not to be rude but I've never heard of you?" 

???: "Well that's a surprise." 

Ragnar (Striking a pose): "I AM RAGNAR THE WRETCHED! GREAT KHAN OF THE DESERTS AND THE RIVAL OF THE GREAT GENERAL YUANAN!" 

Marcy: "SOUNDS SO COOL!" 

Marcy: "But still never heard of you." 

Ragnar: "Huh that's...Interesting." 

Ragnar (Walking away): "Well it was nice meeting you kid hope we see each other again real soon!" 

Marcy (Waving Goodbye): "GOODBYE MR RAGNAR!" 

Marcy: "What a nice guy."  

Oxalia runs back panting 

Oxalia: "MARCY!" 

Marcy (Panicked): "What's wrong!?" 

Oxalia: "I need your help! Hop-pop is freaking out! And he needs somebody to calm him down!" 

Marcy: "Well where is he? Is Sprig and Polly with him?" 

Oxalia: "They are and aren't doing very well in chilling him out!" 

Marcy (Reverting back to human): "Ok but do you know where they are!?" 

Oxalia: "The centre of the market it looks like some kind of auction." 

Marcy: "Then lets help him!" 

Marcy and Oxalia begin running to the centre of the market 

Marcy and Oxalia arrive at the markets centre with Hop-pop screaming at the top of his lungs 

Hop-pop: "DO YOU PEOPLE EVEN KNOW WHAT THAT THING IS!?" 

Marcy: "Hop-pop!? What's wrong!?" 

Hop-pop: "THESE THEIVES!!! HAVE OUR FAMILY CREST!!!" 

Marcy looks at the crest. It's a beautiful family crest being made of some kind of bright bronze metal and a leaf being in the middle. 

Marcy: "I'm very sorry for my found grandfathers outburst." 

Hop-pop: "HEY!?" 

Marcy: "But this is very important to him so could we please purchase it?" 

Ringleader: "HA! NO! You don't buy it...YOU WIN IT!!!" 

Marcy: "How?" 

Ringleader: "THROUGH THE TOURNEY OF THE BOG OF COURSE!!!" 

Oxalia: "What is the tourney of the bog?" 

Ringleader (Pointing to the family crest): "It's a massive tournament of all of Amphibia's various gladiators and the winner gets a prize which happens to be this doohickie." 

Hop-pop: "WHICH IS OUR FAMIY CREST THEIF!" 

Marcy: "If I enter the tourney then can I win that crest?" 

Ringleader: "Sure kid if you CAN even win it at all!" 

The crowd laughs and it causes Marcy to go red in face 

Marcy (Signing the entry list): "OH YOUR GONNA BE LIKE THAT!? FINE! I'LL FIGHT!" 

Oxalia (Slaps her forehead and whispers): "Oh god damnit." 

The other competitors begin to surround Marcy 

Ragnar: "THAT'S ENOUGH!" 

Ragnar (Looks at Marcy before coming to a realisation): "Leave the kid alone she's just new to this." 

The competitors all grumble as Ragnar extends a hand to Marcy 

Marcy: "Uh thank you." 

Marcy , Ragnar and Oxalia sit down in a quite area and Ragnar process's the information he's been given. 

Ragnar: "So your from a another world and are trying to get back home and that weird bracelet thing can turn you into different monsters?" 

Marcy: "Pretty much." 

Ragnar: "I don't know if your brave or stupid kid but that's gotta take a lot of guts." 

Marcy: "Uh thanks?" 

Ragnar: "Your welcome. I look to forward to seeing you in the ring!" 

Marcy: "I'm not even sure if I'll even get past the first round." 

Oxalia: "Of course you will." 

Marcy (Somber): "I'm not much of fighter and sure I can fight an animal and mindless monsters but I can't fight somebody with skill. That was always Sasha's thing..." 

Oxalia: "Then I shall train you." 

Marcy: "What?" 

Oxalia: "I'm a warrior at my core training you will be my greatest achievement." 

Ragnar: "Well I best be going. GOOD LUCK KID!" 

Marcy (Waving goodbye to Ragnar): "GOODBYE RAGNAR!" 

Marcy (Turning to Ragnar): "He's nice!" 

Later that night Marcy yawns as she walks out to see Oxalia finishing building something 

Marcy: "What are you doing it's-" 

Marcy (looking at the Omnitrix): "Two in the morning." 

Oxalia: "I apologise but if you are to win this tourney you must train for it." 

Oxalia: "So I built you an obstacle course along with all the necessary equipment for training." 

Marcy: "Wow that looks fun and all but I need some shut eye." 

Oxalia (Grabbing Marcy's shoulder): "Oh no on Khoros we train first sleep later so your training starts now." 

Marcy: "Ah man." 

Marcy (Showing off the Omnitrix): "Well it's a good thing I have this thing haha!"  

Oxalia (Grabs the Omnitrix blocking Marcy from using it): "Oh no you must master your own body before you can master another." 

Marcy: "AH MAAAAAAN!!!" 

Marcy (sighs): "Can we at least do a montage?" 

Oxalia: "What's a montage?" 

Marcy: "It's a film making technique where they have a character do serious of repetitive actions in which using catchy background music it can take something that would normally take hours into only a few seconds." 

Oxalia: "Uh ok sure." 

Marcy begins to train and she struggles with Oxalia slapping her own head in frustration but Marcy progressively improves over the course of the session with Oxalia cheering her on

After hours of training Marcy collapses to the floor in exhaustion 

Marcy: "Are we done?" 

Oxalia: "Yes we are so you can rest now." 

Marcy: "Oh thank frog!" 

Oxalia: "But you won't have long to rest because in only a few hours you have your first match." 

Marcy: "Noooo....." 

Marcy (Raises her head): "Wait how long did I train for?" 

Oxalia (Pulling out her datapad): "According to the datapad you've been training for the past eight hours." 

Marcy (getting up to her feet): "EIGHT HOURS!?" 

Oxalia: "Oh please! For a Tetramand that's barely a workout session more of a warmup really." 

Marcy: "I'm not a Tetramand Oxy, I'm human and unless I use the watch I stay that way." 

Oxalia: "I've seen Galvan train as long as Tetramands the issue is merely that you need more training! The more your used to it the less tired you'll be!" 

Marcy (sighs): "Sure Oxy." 

Marcy walks inside the flwagon to get some rest 

Marcy (Mumbles): "Sweet relief." 

Marcy feels Oxalia touching her shoulder with Marcy being jolted awake 

Marcy: "I WAS JUST CLOSING MY EYES!" 

Polly: "Dude you spent the whole day asleep." 

Sprig: "And now you have to fight in the ring." 

Sprig: "AND I'M SO EXITED!!!" 

Sprig (getting in Marcy's face and holding her phone): "I'VE BEEN WATCHING SOMETHING CALLED WRESTLING ON YOUR PHONE AND I'M SO EXITED!"

Marcy (Grabs her phone): "Hey give that back!" 

Marcy: "Sprig I'm very certain that this tourney isn't the same as wrestling."  

Oxalia: "Marcy is probably right wrestling is an Earth thing and while I know other species do similar sports they're pretty different from wrestling."

Marcy , Oxalia and the Plantars enter the audience stand watching the opening match 

Marcy (Shocked): "IT'S LITTERALLY JUST WRESTLING!!!" 

Sprig: "YAAAAAAAAAAAAY!" 

Polly (Looking around): "Polly likey." 

The ringleader steps into the ring 

Ringleader: "Welcome everybody to our first night of this season of TOURNEY OF THE BOG!" 

The crowd cheers but they stop when the ringleader speaks again 

Ringleader: "Now our first match of the night is between our reigning champion the great khan RAGNAR THE WRETCHED!" 

The crowd cheers as Ragnar the wretched waves at the crowd 

Ringleader: "And the actor turned wrestler...THE STONE!" 

The Stone waves at the crowd and flexes his muscles 

The Stone: "WHAT'S SHAKIN BACON!?" 

The crowd cheers as the ringleader gets between the two wrestlers 

Ringleader: "Now...WHO'S READY TO RUMBLE!!!!!?" 

The crowd cheers as the ringleader leaves the ring

Sprig (Noticing a worried looking Marcy): "Hey don't worry I'm sure your going to do great." 

Marcy (Weakly smiles): "Thanks Sprig." 

Ragnar then effortlessly beats The Stone 

Ringleader: "ONE , TWO , THREE OUT!" 

Sprig: "Never mind your going to lose." 

Marcy (Gulps): "Aw man."  

Marcy sits right outside the arena and while she twiddles her fingers and Ragnar who just won his first match of the tourney notices Marcy 

Ragnar: "You ok kid?" 

Marcy shakes her head 

Ragnar: "Hey don't worry about it." 

Marcy: "Do you have any tips you can give me?" 

Ragnar: "Well the crowd loves a somebody who's loud , boisterous and  incredibly arrogant." 

Marcy (Looking at the Omnitrix): "Hmmmm...I think I know a guy."

Marcy steps into the arena and the ringleader begins to speak to the crowd

Ringleader: "And now for our second match of the night! In this corner we have the greatest butler in all of Amphibia...ROBERT BOXINGTON!" 

The crowd cheers as Robert bows 

Ringleader: "AND in the other corner...The beast from another world one of our newest competitors THE HUMAN!" 

Marcy awkwardly waves in front of the crowd but the crowd stays silent all except the Plantars and Oxalia who loudly cheer her on 

Robert: "Not much of a crowd huh?" 

Marcy: "It'll get bigger-" 

Marcy (Activates the Omnitrix): "Right after this!" 

Marcy slams the Omnitrix and transforms into Rath 

Rath: "RATH!!!!!"  

Rath garbs the microphone from the ringleader 

Rath: "LEME TELL YA SOMETHIN LADIES AND GENTLEFROGS OFF ALL AGES! RATH KNOWS YOU'RE HERE FOR A SHOW SO RATH IS GONNA GIVE YOU ONE!" 

The crowd cheers even louder than they did for Robert which annoys him a little 

Ringleader: "Now who...WHO'S READY TO RUMBLE!!!!????" 

The crowd cheers and the ringleader leaves the ring and Rath and Robert get in eachother faces

Robert: "You don't belong here girl." 

Rath: "LEME TELL YA SOMETHIN WEIRD BUTLER GUY I DIDN'T BOTHER TO REMEBER THE NAME OF! RATH WAS GONNA GIVE YOU THE FIRST PUNCH BUT SINCE YOU SAID THAT!" 

Rath right hooks Robert staggering him and Robert tries to kick Rath in the gut but Rath grabs his leg and throws him to the ring ropes, But Robert gets up and charges at Rath 

Rath (Uppercutting Robert): "TALPAEDAN UPPERCUT!" 

Rath (Left Hooking Robert): "APPOPLAXIAN LEFT HOOK!" 

Rath (Headbutting Robert Knocking him to the floor): "VULPAMANCER KNOCK DOWN!" 

Robert is knocked down on the floor and Just as Robert is about to get up Rath was had climbed on to the ring rope jumped off it 

Rath (body slams Robert): "ARBURIAN BODY SLAM!" 

Robert is worn out and the referee begins to count down 

Referee (Slamming the ring floor): "1...2....3 OUT!" 

Ringleader: "It's over the winner is...THE HUMAN!" 

The crowd cheers and Rath celebrates 

Rath (Flexing): "YEAH! THAT'S WHAT'S UP!" 

Rath and Robert leaves the ring and Rath reverts back to human 

Marcy: "I AM SO SORRY ABOUT ALL THAT!" 

Robert: "Huh?"

Marcy: "When I turn into Rath I just loose all self control but I thought you did great!" 

Marcy (Raises her hand): "Good game?" 

Robert (Pushes Marcy and walks away): "Whatever." 

Marcy (Confused): "HEY WEREN'T YOU BRITISH JUST A SECOND AGO!?" 

Ragnar walks in but is ignored by Robert 

Marcy: "What was that all about!?" 

Ragnar: "Most of us are really sore losers but that guy will get over it." 

Ragnar: "BUT DUDE! THAT PERFORMANCE WAS AMAZING WHERE DID YOU LEARN THOSE MOVES!?"  

Marcy: "They kinda just came into my head BUT!-" 

Marcy (Looking at where Oxalia is seated): "But I had a good teacher." 

Ragnar (walking away): "Well good luck kiddo I got faith in you!" 

A montage ensues with Marcy struggling during her training sessions and doing well in her fights with the montage ending with Humungosaur being punched in the face by a wrestler and Marcy waking up in the flwagon.

Marcy (groggy): "What happened? Did I win?" 

Hop-pop: "You did." 

Polly: "But you fell unconscious shortly after you won." 

Marcy: "I feel like I was hit by a truck." 

Oxalia (giving Marcy a peck on the cheek): "You look like you were hit by a truck." 

Sprig: "What's a truck?" 

Hop-pop: "Beats me?" 

Marcy gets up and almost falls but Oxalia grabs her and closes the door 

Oxalia: "You do not look good." 

Marcy: "Ya think!?" 

Oxalia: "Hopefully you still feel up to some training!" 

Marcy (Walking with Oxalia): "Oxy...I can't train today." 

Oxalia: "What why not?" 

Marcy: "LOOK AT ME DUDE!!" 

Marcy: "I look like I just got run over and I feel like it too!" 

Oxalia: "I don't understand? Everyone can train no matter the condition! Why on Khoros!-" 

Marcy (Snapping): "WE AREN'T ON KHOROS OXY!" 

Marcy: "And I'm not a Tetramand! And even if I could transform into one I can't stay as one!" 

Oxalia: "Of course I know that it's just- "

Marcy: "Then stop acting like it!" 

Oxalia: "I'M SCARED!!!" 

Marcy (Confused): "Scared of what?"  

Oxalia: "Of losing you!"

Marcy (Comforts Oxalia): "How could you lose me?" 

Oxalia: "There is something hunting us Marcy." 

Marcy: "Yeah I know Villgax." 

Oxalia: "No, Not Villgax something or someone else." 

Marcy: "Who?" 

Oxalia: "Native Amphibians." 

Marcy: "Why would they be hunting us?" 

Oxalia: "I do not know but...I fear the worst." 

Oxalia: "That's why I've been training you so hard. I'm preparing you so you can protect yourself." 

Oxalia (Looking at the Flwagons direction): "And them." 

Marcy: "What about you?" 

Oxalia: "Tetramands do not retreat we either win or we die and If I am to prove myself worthy of calling myself a true Tetramand...I must die in battle." 

Marcy: "Look, I haven't met any other Tetramands other than you but I know this for certain. Ever since I met you, You have never let me down once! And real warriors always stick by their friends first!" 

Oxalia: "Thank you Marcy." 

Marcy: "You're welcome but don't go thinking this going to make me want to train again." 

Oxalia (Chuckles): "Oh I know how to change your mind!" 

Marcy (Chuckles): "How will you do that?"

Oxalia (Grabbing Marcy's shirt): "This!" 

Marcy: "Wait what are you?-" 

Oxalia pushes Marcy's shirt up exposing to Marcy's surprise abs! 

Marcy: "I HAVE ABS!?" 

Oxalia: "Yes you were so busy training and fighting in the ring you never noticed so I wanted to surprise you!" 

Marcy (admiring her abs): "Ok! Maybe training isn't such a bad thing." 

Oxalia: "Perhaps we can adjust your schedule so that way it's more suitable for your human body?" 

Marcy: "Yeah that's perfect!" 

The two kiss and walk back to the flwagon  

It's the end of the semi finals and after this there is one more fight left after this. Humungosaur flexs in front of the crowd celebrating his most recent victory in the tourney

Journalist: "First of all I just want to congratulate you to getting to the finals!" 

Humungosaur: "Thanks!" 

Journalist: "But what are your thoughts on facing Ragnar the wretched!?"

Humungosaur: "Honestly I'm not sure I want to fight Ragnar! He has been nothing but good to me since we met!" 

Journalist: "Are you saying that you will forfeit the championship to Ragnar!?" 

Humungosaur: "Hey! I didn't say that!" 

Ragnar walks in  and grabs Humungosaur's shoulder 

Ragnar: "OK PEOPLE! I'll take thing's over from here!" 

Ragnar (Whispers to Marcy): "Meet me backstage!" 

Humungosaur nods and walks backstage. Ragnar arrives backstage after finishing his interview

Marcy (reverted back to human): "Everything ok Ragnar?" 

Ragnar: "Oh I'm fine! You just looked a little freaked out there so figured I would be you're knight in shining armour." 

Marcy: "Well thank you!" 

Ragnar: "Your welcome." 

Marcy: "I just don't understand! Why would that journalist say I didn't want to fight you?" 

Ragnar: "That's what journalists do! They often stretch the truth nobody is going to read an article where "One guy said something nice to someone else" That's not how they work. They love drama and will do anything to get it!" 

Marcy: "Yeah it's like that where I'm from but...SO MUCH WORSE!" 

Ragnar: "Anyways I wanted to wish you luck in our fight tomorrow." 

Marcy: "So do I dude!" 

Ragnar: "But I also need you to know something." 

Marcy: "What?" 

Ragnar: "That emblem is very important to me so..." 

Ragnar: "I can't let you win." 

Marcy (hesitates): "I....If your sure." 

It's the day of the fight and the ringleader enters the arena 

Ringleader: "Ladies and Gentlefrogs this is our last match of the Tourney and we have our reigning champion...RAGNAR THE WRETCHED!"

The crowd cheers and claps for Ragnar 

Ringleader: "And our first potential true challenger for the championship the shapeshifter...THE HUMAN!!!" 

The crowd cheers once more with Marcy looking at Oxalia and the plantars with a smile on her face 

Ragnar: "I've studied your forms Marcy I know how you fight and how to overcome you." 

Marcy: "Well then if there is one that Japanese trading cards have taught me it's to always have a wildcard!" 

Marcy activates the Omnitrix and transforms into a new alien 

Four arms: "FOUR ARMS!!!" 

Oxalia faints upon seeing Marcy transforming into the same species as her and almost falls on some of the audience 

Audience member 1: "What the heck!?" 

Audience member 2: "Come on dude!" 

Ringleader (turning to the crowd): "Now...LET'S GET READY TO RUMBLE!!!" 

The crowd cheers and the two begin to fight. Ragnar gets a heads start and seemingly beats four arms to a pulp almost knocking her to the floor 

Ragnar: "I told you I would win." 

Four arms (gets up and dusts herself): "You know on my world we have a saying." 

Ragnar: "What's that?"

Four arms (Punching and Kicking Ragnar as hard as she could): "THE BIGGER THEY ARE! 

Four arms (Knocking down Ragnar): "THE HARDER THEY FALL!" 

Four arms proceeds to jump really high in the air and when she lands the ground shakes once again knocking down Ragnar 

Referee: "ONE! TWO! THREE! OUT!"   

Ringleader: "IT'S OVER THE HUMAN IS THE CHAMPION!!!" 

the crowd cheers and Four arms grabs the family crest and waves it around in triumph 

Journalist 3: "Excuse me human can I ask you a question." 

Four arms (leaving the ring): "Ask away dude." 

Journalist 3: "How do you feel about defeating Ragnar the wretched?" 

Four arms: "I feel bad for him. Because I really wanted him to win too!" 

Journalist 3 (Confused): "Why are you being so humble? YOU BEAT RAGNAR THE WRETCHED!"

Marcy (reverting back to human): "He's been nothing but nice to me ever since I met him! I'm sure he would do the same for me." 

Ragnar watched the whole exchange with a weak smile on his face. 

Marcy , The Plantars and Oxalia begin to leave the stadium and notice Ragnar was seemingly waiting for them 

Marcy: "Oh hey Ragnar!" 

Ragnar: "Hey there Marcy! Congratulations on winning the tourney!" 

Marcy: "Thanks but there's something I need to ask you something?" 

Ragnar: "Ask away!"

Marcy (holding the plantars family crest): "You seemed to really want this. Why?" 

Ragnar (sighs): "My Great Grandmother was adopted by a kindly old frog family she was part of some small village. Anyway after she moved out to start her own life the family crest that the her adopters had owned went missing. She searched for it everywhere but after nearly ten years of work...She couldn't find it but she made all her children and their children and their children promise to find the crest and give it back to the family who raised her." 

Ragnar: "So I'm not doing ok! Generational guilt and all!" 

Hop-pop: "WAIT! What was your great grandmothers name?" 

Ragnar: "Emma?" 

Hop-pop (Laughing very had): "HAHAHAHAAHAHAHAH!" 

Ragnar (Confused): "Why are you laughing?" 

Hop-pop: "Because we are the family that lost our crest!" 

Ragnar (Also laughs): "That's hilarious! In the end-" 

Ragnar (Turning to Marcy): "So in the end they did get it back in the end." 

Marcy: "Because of us!" 

Marcy (gets exited): "Wait if your great grandmother was a plantar does that mean-" 

Marcy: "We're related? Because the Plantars took me in." 

Ragnar: "I guess it does and you know what!" 

Ragnar: "I would gladly call you my grand niece!" 

Marcy and Ragnar hug 

Marcy: "I hope I see you again!" 

Ragnar (Waves as the plantar family walks away): "Me too kid...Me too." 

Epilogue 

Ragnar sits alone in his mancave until he hears a knock on the door 

Ragnar: "Who is it?" 

The Enforcer kicks the door open and herself and her taskforce enter the mancave

The Enforcer: "Hello I take it you must be Ragnar." 

Ragnar: "I recognise that armour..." 

Ragnar: "You're from Newtopia aren't you?" 

The Enforcer: "Observant. Good I should expect no less for the great khan of the sand wars." 

Ragnar: "That's not who I am anymore. I've moved on and so should you." 

The Enforcer: "I'm not here to bring up old wounds I need to ask you something." 

Ragnar: "What do you want?" 

The Enforcer: "It is my understanding that you have come into contact with a threat to Newtopian security." 

Ragnar: "What threat?" 

The Enforcer: "A shapeshifter able to take the form of various monsters our spies believe you came into contact with it." 

Ragnar: "Her. You mean her not it." 

Alvin: "You mean the bearer is female?" 

Ragnar: "Yes but that's all you're going to get our of me!" 

The Enforcer (Throws a dagger at a glass cup): "I'm not asking." 

Ragnar (Scared): "OK FINE!" 

Ragnar: "I didn't see her in her true form very much but when I did see her, She had spindly limbs , a face bump and jet black hair." 

The Enforcer (mutters): "That sounds...Familiar." 

Ragnar: "Hope you're happy you made me sell out my friend for you." 

The Enforcer: "I did what needed to be done. You of all people should understand Ragnar." 

The Enforcer and her taskforce leave the mancave except Tasha who stays behind for a moment 

Tasha: "I'm sorry about them." 

Ragnar: "Why would you be?" 

Tasha: "I know who and what exactly their after it's just-" 

Ragnar: "Just what?" 

Tasha: "I know what it's like to be left behind and to be seen as a criminal for fighting for you're beliefs." 

Ragnar: "Yeah my war against the Newtopians was a long and bloody one. In the end when Newtopia got...Her on their side she was the only one other than the shapeshifter that could defeat me." 

Tasha: "Don't worry I'll make sure those Imperialists get what's coming to them." 

Ragnar: "Good luck weird monster girl." 

Tasha: "You too Ragnar the wretched." 

To be continued!

Chapter Text

When Marcy begins to wake up she feels like she's falling only to realise that she is falling through some kind of portal 

Marcy: "What the!?" 

Marcy (Panicking): "OXY! OXALIA WHERE ARE YOU!?" 

Oxalia (Shouts): "I'M OVER HERE!" 

Marcy (Shouts back): "WHAT'S GOING ON!?" 

Oxalia: "I DON'T KNOW!" 

The two embrace and fall through the portal and land on the ground creating a loud thud. 

Marcy: "What happened? Are you hurt Oxy?" 

Oxalia (getting up and dusting herself): "I'm alright just dazed how about you?" 

Marcy: "Same as you." 

Oxalia (Helping Marcy to her feet): "Where exactly are we?" 

Marcy (looking around): "It looks like we are in Amphibia still but it feels-" 

Oxalia: "Different." 

Marcy: "What should we do?" 

Oxalia: "Well we find a place to set up camp." 

Marcy: "Where should we set up camp?" 

Oxalia: "I was thinking where we found that alien ship in our own world." 

Marcy: "You already think this is a parallel world?" 

Oxalia: "I mean what else could it be? This isn't the first time we've travelled to a parallel world." 

Marcy: "Yeah you're right." 

The two begin to move towards where they remember the alien ship was

When they arrive they find no alien ship but a clearing instead

Marcy: "Well no ship for us I guess."

Oxalia: "Well it's not like we are helpless." 

Marcy: "Huh?" 

Oxalia tosses a small device which forms into a small campsite 

Marcy: "YOU HAD THAT THE WHOLE TIME!?" 

Oxalia: "I did but it has a limited amount of charges. How did you think I survived this long before meeting you and the plantars." 

Marcy: "Yeah you're right! Why did I never think of that!?" 

Marcy: "But what should we do now?" 

Oxalia: "Do you seriously have no survival instincts?" 

Marcy: "Not really I mean before Amphibia I was more worried about beating the next level in a game I like more than anything else, Or getting through another school day." 

Oxalia: "Marcy I love you but by the Khan you are so sheltered." 

Oxalia: "Well regardless we need to get food and I know exactly where to get it." 

Marcy (gets a little annoyed): "I'm not stealing from the plantars of this world. I already did that back in our own Amphibia and I got caught." 

Oxalia: "I didn't say steal from them." 

Oxalia (Hands Marcy a small blue square): "This should pay for our food." 

Marcy (Examines it): "What is it?" 

Oxalia: "It's a Taydenite credit, it's standard galactic currency." 

Marcy: "We're in Amphibia Oxy. I don't know how this will pay for it, Because the local currency of Amphibia is copper." 

Oxalia: "Tayden is a rare mineral and it's nearly identical to diamond so if you give it to them it could set them for life." 

Marcy: "Is there anything you want me to keep an eye out for?" 

Oxalia: "Maybe buy me some of Hop-pop's eggplant I swear I don't know how he does it but it's delicious!" 

Marcy (Beginning to walk towards Wartwood): "Alright then I'll tell you anything interesting I find when I get back." 

Oxalia: "Looking forward to it." 

Marcy looks down at Wartwood and she smiles weakly. Marcy thought back to her first few days in Amphibia and how she stole from the plantars she could remember the guilt so clearly in her mind for trying to steal from that poor frog family, Which it turns out to have been one of the best decisions she ever made. But now she has a chance to change things to make thing's better and maybe just maybe...Find ANNE! Of this world at least

Marcy (Activates the Omnitrix and transforms into a Newt): "Alright then looks like it's TIME TO UH-You know what! I'll figure out a catchphrase later." 

Marcy begins to walk down to Wartwood. As she arrives into the centre of town. It didn't seem any different to her version of Wartwood. But as she admires the town she trips and fall on accident 

Marcy: "WUAAHGAH!" 

As Marcy lays there she hears a familiar voice speaking to her 

Anne: "Are you ok there?" 

Marcy recognised the voice immediately it was Anne but when she looked up she realized it was...A FROG! 

Marcy: "ANNE!?" 

Anne: "How do you know my name?" 

Marcy (Struggles to come up with a lie): " UMMM YOU'RE UH...REPUTATION PRECEDES YOU!" 

Anne (Groans): "Great even out of towners know about us." 

Marcy: "Yeah I've heard the stories about all the wacky Hijinx you and you're folks get up to." 

Omnitrix (glows and blinks): "Genetic damage detected in range." 

Anne (Startled): "Did your chest thingy just talk?" 

Marcy (Still struggling): "Old family relic of course! It occasionally says nonsensical stuff here and there." 

Anne: "I'm pretty sure you're lying but I have no idea how to explain that so I'm just gonna take your word for it."

Marcy: "Anyway you wouldn't happen to know where the plantar family stand is?" 

Anne: "Sure thing!" 

The two begin to walk to the plantars family stand 

Anne: "Say how did you know about my family's stand?" 

Marcy (Surprised): "Wait your family's stand?" 

Anne (Shrugs and sighs): "Yup my folks took me in when I was a tadpole." 

Marcy: "So you've never met your birth parents?" 

Anne: "No but if I did see them again I wouldn't blame them, Because Hop-pop always said to me that my birth parents were probably eaten since they found me in the forest, And if they are alive they probably think I'm the one that got eaten." 

Marcy: "Well you seem to be pretty happy being a part of their family." 

Anne: "Couldn't be happier! Because they will always be my family no matter what!" 

The two arrive at the plantars stand 

Hop-pop: "Hey there Anne, have you found Sprig and Polly yet?" 

Anne: "No I searched everywhere, I didn't find them." 

Hop-pop (sighs): "Well they have to be somewhere!" 

Just as Sprig and Polly were mentioned Sprig runs out of the forest holding Polly's bucket 

Sprig (Pants): "That was close!" 

Polly: "Same I'm just glad Hop-pop and Anne didn't catch us." 

Hop-pop (Who was ominously glaring at the two along with Anne): "And where have you two been?" 

Sprig: "GAH!" 

Polly: "DANG IT SPRIG!" 

Hop-pop walks back to the stand to speak with Marcy 

Hop-pop: "Before I give my two younger grandkids an earful is there anything I can get you?" 

Marcy (Handing Hop-pop a shopping list): "Everything we need is on this list." 

Hop-pop (looks at the list): "Awful lot of stuff you're buying you must have deep pockets!" 

Marcy (handing Hop-pop the Taydenite credit): "Hopefully this covers the cost." 

Hop-pop: "What is that?" 

Marcy (lying): "It's a square made of pure diamond. My girlfriend told me I could sell it for food." 

Hop-pop (A huge grin on his face): "Hehehehehehe we're gonna be rich!" 

As Marcy holds the bag of food she watches the Anne of this world interacting with the plantars. It was obviously Anne; her bushy brown hair made it obvious but Marcy hadn't seen Anne so happy. Marcy teared up but she couldn't hold it in so she ran off as fast as her Newt legs could carry her 

Anne (Looking at Marcy's direction): "Hey Hop-pop?" 

Hop-pop: "Yeah?" 

Anne: "That girl was weird." 

Hop-pop: "Just because somebody is weird or different doesn't make them a bad person." 

Anne: "I hope your right Hop-pop." 

Oxalia sits getting more of the campsite set up and wondering when Marcy arrives. All of a sudden Marcy emerges from the forest now back in her human form looking visibly upset. 

Oxalia (Runs over to comfort her girlfriend): "Marcy are you alright!?" 

Marcy (Barely holding it together): "No!" 

Oxalia (Kisses her on the cheek): "Tell me what happened?" 

Marcy (Managing to gain a little composure): "I found Anne, Oxy." 

Oxalia: "You did?" 

Marcy: "I did but she wasn't my Anne."  

Oxalia: "How did you know?" 

Marcy: "She was a frog, Oxy." 

Oxalia: "I mean that isn't too surprising." 

Marcy (Confused): "What?" 

Oxalia: "If there is a world where more than one human finds themselves trapped in Amphibia it wouldn't surprise me if a version of you or your friends were born here as Amphibians." 

Marcy: "Which leads to the obvious conclusion." 

Oxalia: "You exist here as a Newt? I would be certain that assumption is true." 

Oxalia picks up Marcy causing Marcy to blush. 

Oxalia: "And scoop!" 

Oxalia: "Why don't we spare you the existential crisis and have some dinner?" 

Marcy (yawns): "I could sure do with something in my belly right now." 

Oxalia: "That's the spirit!" 

The two sit at the campfire and begin to get dinner ready 

Later that night inside their tent Oxalia snores and Marcy tosses and turns in bed...Marcy can't sleep with the ramifications of her discovery, Could other realities be an offshoot of her own was hers an offshoot too? If so , that's a terrifying thought. And her being a Newt in this world was also a little disturbing but she had to make sure 

Marcy (Activating the Omnitrix): "I'm sorry Oxy." 

Marcy slams the Omnitrix and transforms into Big Chill 

Big Chill: "I just need to see this through." 

Big Chill leaves the tent and begins to fly high in the air. This wasn't the first time they've flown high in the sky to clear their head. They started doing this after the toad tower incident and it helped with calming down. The wind blowing through their face and the lights from the houses below was an almost euphoric feeling no one could ever forget . The truth was Big Chill could have gone to Newtopia at any time as by flying you could get there in a few hours at most. When they began to enter the city nobody even noticed they were there. Their blueish skin in this form made it hard for anyone to see her not to mention her cruising height was way too high up for anyone to spot her and it was not like she couldn't disappear. Big Chill can go invisible after all. When she arrived at the castle they circled it searching, Until they found an open balcony they knew herself all too well, This is where their counterpart is, it has to be! Big Chill lands on the balcony and enters the room it's connected to. As Big Chill walked around the room they found paintings all around the room. The pink Newt they didn't recognise and large Newt in the picture was likely the king, But the green Newt? It's her counterpart it had to be! All the paintings depicted the girl doing something quirky and odd but always happy, Not to mention her short black hair made it obvious that it was her. As Big Chill turned to the right side of the room she found the newt girl sleeping although she was much older as the paintings would have been painted when the girl couldn't have been no older than 6 or whenever tadpoles turn into Newts. Big Chill walks close to the bed but turns invisible to avoid waking up the princess 

Big Chill (Whispers as not to wake her up): "So you're me? I have to say on the flight here I didn't know what to say to you. Should I be happy? You get a world where you are loved and accepted and treated as an equal. You have the king of Amphibia himself as your father and you have what I'm guessing is your big sister. You have a life here, a life where you can be happy. Or should I be Jealous? You get the perfect life, a loving father and a world full of mysteries to feed your urge for discovery and adventure and what did I get? A world where I am hated for simply existing! A family who forgets I even exist, A world where everything has an answer and there is no mystery but mainly...No magic. Where the wonder of discovery and imagination is forgotten, A world where we're taught to act like everyone else, A world where I am isolated for my differences , Scorned for my quirks and maligned for my interests. But the thing I came to see you for was...Did you make the same choices I did? Did you make the same mistakes I made or have you made entirely new ones all your own? Did you choose to live everyday without a care? Or do you worry? Do you fear the same thing I do? Or do you fear horrors I can't imagine?" 

Big Chill (After a long pause speaks again): "I think that's enough of my ramblings I think I should leave you alone. Sleep well Marcy and sweet dreams because unlike me...Your dreams never have to end." 

Before Big Chill jumps off the balcony but before they leave they notice a small piece of paper covered under a lot of pillows with it being very crumpled and damaged as if somebody wanted to forget about it. Or never wanted it in the first place

Big Chill (Reaching for it and picks it up): "What's this?" 

The paper was actually the cover of some kind of Magazine with a monstrous humanoid being on the cover. On top of the page the magazine read. 

Big Chill (Reads the title aloud but quietly): "Terror of The Newtopian Book Beast!!!"  

Big Chill: "Probably some punk got this to scare my counterpart, But I think I might like to read this." 

Big Chill flies high into the sky. Medicated Marcy wakes up for a moment and stretches

Medicated Marcy: "Was somebody saying something to me?" 

Medicated Marcy shrugs and curls up in her blankets and goes back to sleep. 

As the dawn rises both Marcy and Oxalia awaken and begin to get ready for the day ahead

Marcy (Drinking a bottle of water): "Do you want me to head into town today?" 

Oxalia (Eating an eggplant): "I don't think so." 

As the two eat they hear they all of a sudden hear an argument coming from nearby 

Oxalia: "Uh should we help?" 

Marcy: "Uh duh!" 

The two run over to the sound of the commotion but remain at the edge of the forest to avoid being spotted by the toads  

Toad soldier 1: "I'm sorry ma'am but your entering into a restricted area, I'm afraid we're going to have to ask you to leave." 

Valeriana: "You can't do this! I'm carrying valuable medical supplies for a frog family who need it urgently!" 

Toad soldier 2: "Well tell them they can wait!" 

Toad soldier 3: "Say! If there are medical supplies in there I reckon the captain would be very pleased if we took it for ourselves." 

Toad soldier 1(Sinisterly): "Good Idea." 

As the toads begin to make a move and Valeriana prepares herself for a fight, Marcy transforms into Humungosaur and jumps from the forest to help 

Humungosaur: "HUMUNGOSAUR!!!!" 

The toad soldiers turn around and find Humungosaur standing right behind them 

Humungosaur: "You boys wouldn't be trying to steal medical supplies from this poor old lady would you?" 

Toad Soldiers: "Uh NO!" 

Valeriana (Smugly): "Yes they were!" 

The toad soldiers turn to Valeriana with a look of terror in their eyes 

Oxalia (Jumps down to join the fray): "Good enough for us." 

The toads fearing the captains wrath far more than these monsters charge at Humungosaur and Oxalia, Oxalia punches two of the soldiers before throwing them into a nearby ditch, Two of the soldiers try to knock down Humungosaur by hitting her legs but Humungosaur simply stomps the ground creating a shock wave sending the toad soldiers into the same ditch their comrade's we're thrown to 

Humungosaur (Walking over to the toads): "If I ever see you three bother this poor old lady again." 

Humungosaur snaps a large tree with her bare hands 

Humungosaur: "That's what happens to you." 

Humungosaur (Angrily shouts): "NOW SCRAM!" 

The toad soldiers run away screaming 

Valeriana: "Thank you for your assistance, monsters you potentially saved somebody's life today." 

Oxalia: "It was the least we could do." 

Marcy (reverted to human form): "How are you not terrified of us?" 

Valeriana (Shrugs): "Well I live in the snow, I'm missing an arm and I make potions so I'm used to weird stuff." 

Marcy: "Oh." 

Valeriana: "Anyways I believe you should have something for your efforts, So go ahead take whatever you want." 

Oxalia: "A kind offer but we don't need any-" 

Oxalia notices a gold coloured liquid inside a bottle covered with leaves in one of the boxes which contains rows of identical bottles 

Oxalia (Grabs and holds one of the bottles): "Could we take this potion?" 

Valeriana: "Of course. Anything you desire." 

Marcy (Takes the liquid from Oxalia): "What does it do?" 

Valeriana: "It helps folks who have trouble with producing slime."  

Oxalia (Suspicious): "I see." 

Valeriana waves goodbye and continues into Wartwood. Oxalia grabs the liquid back from Marcy and the two begin walking back to camp 

Marcy: "Is something wrong Oxy?" 

Oxalia: "Do you not find it suspicious that a substance used to help Amphibians with producing slime is somehow supposed to save someone's life?" 

Marcy: "Amphibia is a lot hotter than Earth so without their slime Amphibians would just dry up and die." 

Oxalia: "Ok but we lived in the household of an entire family of Amphibians and it kept us cool." 

Marcy: "I mean it felt a little hot to me but still." 

Oxalia: "You're probably right, I just have a hunch there's something more going on here." 

Marcy: "Well having a hunch isn't a bad thing and besides! I always wondered what went into Amphibia brews." 

Oxalia: "I'll have the analyser scan the potion, why don't you do some aerial reconnaissance while it's being scanned." 

Marcy: "I'm more than happy to do that Oxy but this is a campsite it doesn't have any real scientific equipment." 

Oxalia: "The camp was designed as a personal military base so it has the tech." 

Marcy (About to activate and slam the Omnitrix): "Ok hope you find something!" 

Marcy transforms into Big Chill and flies high in the sky

Oxalia (Watching Big Chill fly off): "Me too." 

Anne sits on the couch comfortably reading a book. The book itself was all about a frog who got transported to another world full witches and magic 

Anne: "Man what I would give to be something cool! Like a witch or ooh! A shapeshifter!" 

Sprig (Walks in the room): "Hey Anne!" 

Anne: "Oh hey Sprig what's up!?"  

Sprig: "You remember when Polly and I ran off to the forest yesterday?" 

Anne: "Yeah what about it?" 

Sprig: "Polly and I were running for our lives from some weird bug thing and obviously we escaped, but!" 

Anne: "And it's what comes after that but that scares me." 

Sprig: "I dropped my slingshot in the forest and I need your help to get it back." 

Anne: "SPRIG! You know how Hop-pop gets when anyone leaves the house at night." 

Sprig: "PLEASE ANNE!" 

Anne: "And don't you have a bunch of slingshots in your room?" 

Sprig (Doing a cutesy face): "PLEASE!!!" 

Anne (Sighs): "The thing's I do for family." 

Anne: "Fine I'll get it back but on one condition!" 

Sprig: "ANYTHING!" 

Anne: "You have to do my chores for a year!" 

Sprig: "A YEAR!?!?!?!!?!?" 

Anne: "That's the deal." 

Sprig (sighs): "Fine." 

Sprig walks out of the room and Anne sighs 

Anne: "I thought that would turn him away!" 

Anne sighs and grumbles to herself about always taking the fall for Sprig and she climbs out a nearby window and begins to head towards the forest. This wasn't the first time she's snuck out although Sprig and Polly were always with her when something like this happens. Anne always knew she was adopted because she didn't look like anybody from the Plantar family both past and present, and they don't have blue skin like she does and lacked her brown hair. As she wanders she thinks of all the places where Sprig could have dropped it much to her annoyance it wasn't where he and Polly emerged from yesterday 

Anne (grumbles): "I guess luck is not on my side." 

As Anne walks she is completely unaware that someone is watching her 

Big chill (Whispers in a confused tone): "What are you doing out here?" 

Before Big Chill can ponder the question she notices a large branch is about to fall on top an unaware Anne 

Big Chill: "HEY ANNE LOOKOUT!" 

Anne (Looks up and sees the log): "Huh!?" 

Anne jumps but Big Chill jumps down and covers Anne with her wings before the branch can hit her. Anne doesn't know what happened and for a moment she thinks she's dead 

Anne (Scared): "Is this the black nothingness that Hop-pop says he sees when he sleeps!? Please don't take me! I don't wanna die!!!" 

Big Chill (Grabs Anne and holds her close to their face): "No Anne your not dead, Besides you've faced worse haven't you?" 

Anne (Screams at the top of her lungs): "MONSTER!!!!!!" 

Big Chill (Confused): "Monster?" 

Anne kicks Big Chill in the face staggering her and causing her to drop Anne allowing her a chance to escape 

Anne: "If you want to eat me, beast! You'll have to catch me!" 

Big Chill (quickly catches up to Anne and flies over her): "You know I could catch up to you easily right?" 

Anne (Screams): "AHHHHHHH!!!!!" 

Big Chill freezes Annes legs so she can't move and Big Chill gets into their face but Anne is still screaming at the top of her lungs

Big Chill (Annoyed): "Are you done?" 

Anne (Still screaming): "NO!!!!" 

Big Chill (Sighs): "Dude I'm not going to eat you." 

Anne (Stops screaming): "You're not going to eat me?" 

Big Chill: "DUDE!? THAT'S ALL KINDS OF MESSED UP NO!!!" 

Anne: "PHEW!" 

Big Chill: "You mind telling me what you're doing out this late?" 

Anne: "Sprig lost his slingshot in the forest and he needs me to get it." 

Big Chill: "Can't imagine Hop-pop will be too pleased with you for sneaking out?" 

Anne: "You're right he won't." 

Big Chill: "Then would you like my help?" 

Anne: "Only if you tell me-" 

Anne: "WHAT THE HECK ARE YOU!?" 

Big Chill: "It's...Complicated." 

Omnitrix (Blinks and Beeps): "Genetic damage detected in range." 

Big Chill (Annoyed): "ARE YOU KIDDING ME! You work fine up until this exact moment!?" 

Anne (Realization): "HEY YOU'RE THAT WEIRD NEWT FROM YESTERDAY AREN'T YOU!?" 

Big Chill "AWWWWW SHOOT!" 

Big Chill (Frustrated sigh): "Yes I am that Newt from yesterday!" 

Anne: "I KNEW THERE WAS SOMETHING OFF ABOUT YOU!" 

Anne: "But how did you go from a Newt to...This thing!?" 

Big Chill: "It's really complicated but here is the simplest way to explain it, it's a magic bracelet." 

Anne: "Whoah cool!" 

Big Chill: "How long do we have until Hop-pop begins to suspect you're gone?" 

Anne (pointing at the moon): "He probably already knows but we have to be back by the full moon." 

Big Chill: "Why the full moon specifically?" 

Anne: "I have a disability and I have to take medicine it helps remedy it, My medicine could wear off by the full moon." 

Big Chill: "Does it have anything to do with your slime?" 

Anne: "It does actually!" 

Big Chill: "Huh that's a nice surprise!" 

Anne: "What?" 

Big Chill: "My girlfriend and I helped an old lady with some medicine she was bringing into Wartwood! It apparently helps frogs produce slime!" 

Anne: "You're right! That is a nice surprise!" 

Anne (Shakes her head): "No time! We need to find that stupid slingshot!" 

Big Chill: "Agreed!" 

The two begin to search the forest for the slingshot

After hours of searching the duo have failed to find the slingshot 

Anne (Annoyed): "UGH We've spent hours looking! And we've found nothing!" 

Big Chill: "Yeah I would've thought that I can find it fast since I can fly!" 

Anne (Looking up at the moon): "We don't have long the moon is almost full!" 

Big Chill: "Then perhaps we try something different?" 

Anne (Sighs): "What did you have in mind?" 

Big Chill (Looks at the Omnitrix symbol on their chest): "Hope this works!" 

Big Chill slams the Omnitrix logo on their chest chest covering her in a blinding green light transforms her into Blitzwolfer 

Blitzwolfer: "BLITZWOLFER!!!" 

Blitzwolfer (Looks down at the Omnitrix now forming as a collar on her neck): "HA IT WORKED!" 

Anne: "What worked?" 

Blitzwolfer: "Normally I have to go back to my normal form to transform into a different monster!" 

Blitzwolfer: "GLAD I DON'T HAVE TO DO THAT ANYMORE!" 

Anne: "Happy for you and all but can we please get back to the task at hand!?" 

Blitzwolfer: "Right!" 

Blitzwolfer tries to smell the air for Sprig's scent and it didn't take her very long before finding it 

Blitzwolfer (Turns her head in the direction of Sprigs scent): "This way!" 

Blitzwolfer runs and Anne follows, When they arrive at the end of the trail they find what seems to be a nest with the bones of dead Frogs and potentially Toads everywhere 

Anne: "What could have done this?" 

Blitzwolfer: "I don't know but probably nothing or no one good." 

Anne looks around until she finds Sprigs slingshot 

Anne (Picks up the slingshot): "I found-" 

Anne (Hears a monster right behind you): "IT!" 

Anne turns around and finds a monster roaring at her and Blitzwolfer gets between the two 

Blitzwolfer: "WHAT THE FROG IS THAT THING!?" 

Blitzwolfer: "It looks like some kind of Cat, Moth thing!?" 

Anne (Cowering behind Big Chill): "That's a Kill-a-moth! A dangerous Amphibivore!" 

Blitzwolfer: "So bad news for you, not so much for me, GOT IT!" 

Anne (Confused): "Huh!?" 

Blitzwolfer: "I'm a mammal in this form and in my normal one it's not going to hunt me so I'll distract it! You get out of here!" 

Blitzwolfer: "NOW!" 

Anne hops out of sight and hides behind some trees but Blitzwolfer thinks she's run back home 

Blitzwolfer: "Alright ugly if your gonna go after my best friend...YOU GOTTA ANOTHER THING COMING!" 

Blitzwolfer pounces on the Kill-a-moth and the two begin to maul each other, With Blitzwolfer slashing on different parts of the Kill-a-moth's body and the Kill-a-moth bites down on Blitzwolfer's arm. Blitzwolfer produces a sonic howl sending the beast flying back. 

Blitzwolfer: "You didn't think I would make it easy on you would I?" 

The Kill-a-moth roars and pins Blitzwolfer making it impossible for her to escape 

Blitzwolfer: "Ok I guess it is easy for you then." 

Anne who has been hiding in the cover of trees realizes that Blitzwolfer might not survive the Kill-a-moth 

Anne: "I have to do something but what!?" 

Anne looks around until she finds the long dead skeleton of a toad holding a sword 

Anne: "That'll work!" 

Anne runs over and grabs the sword and runs over to the Kill-a-moth and a pinned Blitzwolfer 

Anne: "Hey ugly!" 

The Kill-a-moth turns around only to feel a searing pain in its gut as Anne impales it. The Kill-a-moth roars in pain and flies off with a gaping wound in it's gut

Blitzwolfer (Gets up and grabs Anne and spins her around in celebration): "HA I KNEW IT! NO MATTER THE WORLD YOU'RE ALWAYS GONNA HAVE MY BACK!" 

Anne: "HA YEAH! Wait what?" 

Blitzwolfer (Puts Anne back down): "Never mind that last part, I'm just glad you stepped in when you did. I would've been a total goner!" 

Blitzwolfer (Looks at the full moon): "I guess we're a little late though." 

Anne (Notices the full moon): "Ah frog HOP-POP IS GONNA-" 

Before Anne could finish her sentence she realised she couldn't move her whole body had stiffened she realized she couldn't move or speak, Her whole body began to heat up at first it pretty hot but nothing she couldn't handle...Until she couldn't handle it anymore she felt like she was inside a furnace but that said furnace was inside of her, The pain was too much and Anne collapsed 

Blitzwolfer (Panicking): "ANNE!? WHAT'S HAPPENING!?" 

Anne wanted to say something but realized she couldn't the pain made it impossible 

Blitzwolfer: "ANNE JUST HANG ON MY GIRLFRIEND MIGHT BE ABLE TO HELP!"  

Blitzwolfer slams the Omnitrix and transforms her into XLR8 

XLR8 (Grabs Anne): "DON'T WORRY ANNE YOU'RE GONNA BE OKAY!" 

XLR8 ran has fast as she could the breeze from XLR8s speed made it slightly more bearable but not by much, In only a few seconds the two had arrived at the campsite with Oxalia there to greet them 

Oxalia (Unaware of what's going on): "Welcome back I did some tests on that medicine AND!" 

XLR8 (Freaking out): "NO TIME!" 

Oxalia: "What do you mean NO TIME!?" 

Oxalia notices XLR8 holding Anne who looked to be in serious pain 

Oxalia (Serious): "Follow me!" 

The two run inside a medical ward and XLR8 places Anne on a hospital bed 

Oxalia: What's happening to her!?" 

XLR8: "I don't know what happened!? Anne just collapsed in lots of pain!" 

Anne couldn't quite comprehend where she was in part do to the insane pain she felt, a new sensation followed as Anne felt like she was being gagged as her tongue felt like it was shrinking, Oxalia activates an advanced medical bay which displays Anne's skeleton and vital signs. 

Oxalia: "Her heart rate is through the roof! And...That can't be right!" 

XLR8: "What's happening to her!?" 

Oxalia: "Her organs are shifting and it appears so are her bones and muscles." 

As soon as Oxalia said that Anne felt her limbs jerk and move unnaturally as her muscles and bones feel like they are rearranging themselves, XLR8 looks on in horror as her best friend is writhing in pain 

XLR8: "WHAT'S HAPPENING TO HER!?" 

Oxalia: "She's..." 

XLR8 (Freaking out): "She's what Oxy!?" 

Oxalia: "She's transforming!" 

As soon as Oxalia said that Anne could feel her eyes burn as they seemed to be moving closer together and she felt her skin become drier by the second 

XLR8 (Crying): "ANNE! Oh god I...I lost you once already! I'm not losing you again!" 

XLR8 notices Anne's skin getting darker and her face no longer looking like an Amphibian but that of a Human 

XLR8 (Still crying): "Not again! NEVER AGAIN!" 

After what felt like hours the pain had finally subsided and Anne opened her eyes 

Anne: "What happened?" 

XLR8 (Hugs Anne): "ANNE! YOU'RE OKAY!" 

Oxalia picks up XLR8 and allows her to cry into her shoulder. Anne looks around the room for some reason it felt smaller 

Anne: "This room feels a whole lot smaller than I thought it was?" 

Oxalia: "Well you're not exactly a frog anymore Human." 

Anne: "Hey what do you mean I'm not a frog!? Of course I am!" 

Oxalia (Holds out a mirror): "Not anymore." 

Anne looks at the mirror and sees a hideous beast with forward facing eyes her jaws now filled with teeth and a awful looking face bump, The monstrous face moved when Anne moved and it meant only one thing...The four armed beast is right she isn't a frog anymore

Anne (Crying): "What...WHAT HAPPENED TO ME!?" 

XLR8: "You've transformed into a human Anne." 

Anne: "Is that what I am now! A human?" 

XLR8: "Yup!" 

Anne: "I need to get back to normal! How am I going to explain this to my family!" 

Oxalia: "Actually Anne this is your normal form." 

Anne: "What!?" 

Oxalia: "Marcy, you remember when we took some of that medicine from that old lady earlier today?" 

XLR8: "Of course I do!"

Oxalia: "My suspicion was correct, the lady lied to us about what the medicine does. What the medicine actually does is that it alters the consumer on the genetic level transforming you into the selected species which in this case is frogs. The potion wasn't stopping you from turning into a human, it was transforming you into a frog and the continued dosage kept you transformed into a frog." 

Anne: "If this is what...I really am then why did it hurt so much to transform back!?" 

Oxalia: "Well there are a few explanations. One of them being that the potion is magical and contains an anastetic agent that makes the pain more dull however when you transform back into your normal form the magic has left your system and the body contorts itself back to normal which is incredibly painful but the more you transform it should hurt you less and less." 

Anne: "How did you know this was my normal form?" 

Oxalia: "While you 're still a frog there was still a trace amount of human DNA which made sure you were still you."

Anne: "This is doing my brain in!" 

XLR8: "It's ok Anne being human can be really difficult but it has a lot of pros too." 

Anne: "I know your a shapeshifter Marcy but what would you know about-" 

Anne (Gestures at herself): "THIS!" 

XLR8: "I know a lot about humans because..." 

Marcy (Reverts back to human): "I AM! Human." 

Anne: "WHAT THE HECK!?" 

Marcy: "So I know exactly what we are." 

Marcy: "We come from a world called Earth, another universe independent of Amphibia."  

Anne: "What's a universe?" 

Marcy "It's! You know what! I'll tell you another time." 

Oxalia: "Get some rest in an hour or so, we will take you back to the plantars when you're ready."  

Anne (Smiles weakly): "Thanks." 

Marcy and Oxalia nod and the two leave Anne alone giving her some time to rest 

Later that night Anne who has finally worked up the courage to step outside find Oxalia and Marcy outside waiting for her 

Anne: "I'm ready to go." 

Marcy: "Alright then." 

Marcy activates the Omnitrix and transforms into Big Chill 

Big Chill: "BIG CHILL!" 

Anne (Confused): "Why do you always shout the name of your monsters?" 

Big Chill: "I dunno it's kind of like an urge." 

Oxalia: "I'm coming with you two." 

Big Chill: "I can't carry you Ox, Big Chill isn't strong enough for that."  

Oxalia: "You're not going to carry me." 

Oxalia puts on some kind of jetpack

Big Chill (Confused): "Since when did you get a jetpack!?" 

Oxalia: "What do you mean I've always had one, it's standard issue in the Tetramand army!?" 

Big Chill: "Sorry, I've just never seen you use it before!"  

Oxalia: "It's alright my love you'll see me you use it more and more later on." 

The two fly high in the sky as Anne clutches onto Big Chill so she doesn't fall 

Anne: "Hey Marcy?"

Big Chill: "Yeah what is it?" 

Anne: "If you're from another world then how did you get to Amphibia?" 

Big Chill: "It's a long story." 

Anne: "But you also immediately recognised who I am even though I was still a frog!" 

Big Chill: "That's because we are best friends Anne, well not you specifically but an alternate you." 

Anne: "An alternate me?" 

Big Chill: "Yeah a version of you who was still on Earth or at least she was..." 

Anne: "Was?"  

Big Chill: "When we arrived in Amphibia we were separated. I arrived in Wartwood and the Plantars took me in." 

Anne: "Huh so you're also a Plantar then?" 

Big Chill: "On my world yes."

The three were now flying above the Plantar house. Anne clutched to Big Chill tighter whimpering slightly 

Big Chill (Worried): "What is it Anne?"  

Anne: "What if they are scared of me? Or worse?" 

Big Chill: "When the plantars first took me in they thought I was just some kind of Newt that was until Sprig saw me transform. Sure they were scared and didn't quite understand what I was but at the end of the day I helped them out and proved that while my form was a lie my actions were and still are true." 

Anne: "So what you're saying is that even if I look different they won't think of me any differently?" 

Big Chill: "That's exactly what I'm saying!" 

Big Chill (Looking down at the plantar house): "Are you ready?" 

Anne (Nods): "I am." 

Anne: "But could I get on your back? I don't want them to freak out immediately." 

Big Chill: "Sure just be careful alright?" 

The three begin to land at the plantar house 

Both Polly and Hop-pop glare at Sprig 

Polly (Sarcastically): "Way to go bro." 

Sprig: "I DIDN'T THINK SHE WOULD ACTUALLY DO IT!" 

Hop-pop: "Just be quite Sprig!" 

Hop-pop: "If you had just waited until tomorrow we all would've helped you in getting it back!" 

Sprig (Sighs): "I know Hop-pop." 

Polly (Notices something flying in the sky): "Hey guys! Look up!" 

Hop-pop: "It's just a moth Polly." 

Big Chill lands right in front of the Plantars with Oxalia standing right next to her 

Polly: "Or not." 

Hop-pop (serious): "Where is my granddaughter!?" 

Big Chill: "Relax Hop-pop I have her." 

Hop-pop: "If you put even just one finger on her! Don't expect me to pay any ransom!" 

Big Chill: "DUDE WHAT!? No! I didn't capture her or anything! Jeez that's just wrong!"  

Big Chill: "In fact she is right here with me!" 

Hop-pop: "Then where is she!?" 

Big Chill: "She's right behind me. BUT FAIR WARNING! She's a...Little different than when she left the house." 

Hop-pop: "I don't care how different she is whether it be by a little or a lot! She's my granddaughter and I love her no matter what!" 

Sprig: "SO DO I!" 

Polly: "Yeah sure me too." 

Anne begins to sob at her family's kind words  

Anne (Peeks over Big Chills wing): "You guys really mean that!?" 

Sprig (runs over to Anne): "ANNE!" 

Big Chill steps aside to allow Sprig to hug her sister 

Sprig (On the verge of tears): "Oh Anne...I'm sorry!"

Anne (Comforts Sprig): "It's ok Sprig everything is ok." 

Sprig finally notices that Anne isn't a frog anymore 

Sprig (Touches Anne's face): "Anne...What happened to you!?" 

Anne: "It's complicated." 

Polly: "Oh you just noticed that now!?" 

Sprig (Turning to Big Chill): "WHAT DID YOU DO TO HER!?!?!!?" 

Big Chill: "Whoa dude! I didn't do anything to her!" 

Hop-pop: "Anne...You didn't take your medicine did you?" 

Anne (Sighs): "You're right I didn't take it." 

Hop-pop: "I'VE TOLD YOU HOW IMPORTANT IT IS THAT YOU TAKE IT!" 

Anne: "WELL YOU NEVER GAVE ME A GOOD REASON AS TO WHY!?" 

Anne: "I just didn't find the whole slime excuse to be very believable." 

Big Chill: "I think you knew the whole time about what Anne really is didn't you?" 

Hop-pop: "That's crazy talk!" 

Anne: "Is it though!? You've always been pretty nutso about taking my medicine!" 

Hop-pop: "FINE! I did know." 

Anne: "Then why didn't you tell me!?"

Hop-pop (Sighs): "Your parents." 

Anne: "This has to do with my parents?" 

Hop-pop: "The story I've told you about finding you in the forest is true but I didn't tell you everything, You weren't a tadpole but something else entirely. Your parents realized that you would be treated as an outsider because of the fact you weren't an Amphibian, So your parent convinced me to help and I turned to a sorcerer and I begged her for help and so she gave us your medicine and from that day on we raised you as an Amphibian, But we knew we couldn't keep the secret forever your parents and I wanted to tell you after your 13th birthday, But-" 

Anne: "The Herons..." 

Big Chill: "The Herons? I didn't know about this." 

Hop-pop: "Yes and while you, Sprig and Polly survived...Your parents didn't make it." 

Hop-pop: "Unlike Sprig and Polly you were old enough to remember them and I didn't want to cause you anymore pain and I knew you were always bothered about being adopted so I thought that if you learned that you weren't really a frog it would crush you so I decided to never tell you so you would never be hurt again, But in the end I just hurt you even more instead, And I'm sorry Anne." 

Hop-pop (Quietly sobs): "I'm just so sorry Anne." 

Anne (Hugs Hop-pop): "It's okay Hop-pop...I forgive you." 

Big Chill (Cries into Oxalias shoulder again): "THAT WAS! BEAUTIFUL WAAAHAHAHAAHAH!" 

Oxalia (Unphased): "That was...Interesting." 

Hop-pop (Turning to look at Big Chill and Oxalia): "I don't know who or what you two are but the fact you accepted her for what she really is when no one else likely would gives me a good feeling about you two! Thank you for that, Truly." 

Big Chill: "Thank you Hop-pop that means a lot coming from you, Because Oxy and I know a thing or two about being different ain't that right Oxy!?" 

Oxalia: "Correct observation my love." 

Oxalia: "Well we should get going." 

Big Chill: "WAIT OXY I NEED TO TELL ANNE SOMETHING VERY IMPORTANT!" 

Oxalia (Confused): "Uh okay?" 

Big Chill: "Anne, whenever you start to feel any pain below your belly or feel really sick and moody, Then drink that medicine AND STAY AS A FROG AS LONG AS POSSIBLE!" 

Anne (Confused): "What are you talking about!?" 

Big Chill: "It's a human thing and it's one of the worst parts about being human!" 

Anne: "Well what is it?" 

Big Chill: "Look if I told you what I'm talking then you would freak! Just do what I say ok!?" 

Anne: "UH OK!" 

With that Big Chill and Oxalia wave goodbye to the planters and the two fly high in the sky 

Oxalia: "Did you have to tell her that?" 

Big Chill: "Well it's an important thing that a lot of humans go through. I was just giving her advanced warning!" 

Oxalia: "But why didn't you tell her other important stuff such as the fact there are more humans here!?" 

Big Chill: "I'm a science nerd at my core! And in my opinion it's always better to learn something on your own than have it be told to you."

Oxalia: "Well what should our plan be? We can't just sit around and do nothing!?" 

Big Chill: "Well I was thinking about visiting my counterpart again! If she's anything like me she might either know a way to get us home or at least she'll help us figure it out." 

Oxalia: "Perhaps we should organize a proper meeting. We can't just barge in and take her completely by surprise. Could you imagine the panic that might cause!?" 

Big Chill: "Good point, What should we do until we can schedule it?"

Oxalia: "I think I've figured out how to brew the potion but we need some ingredients. I was thinking we could acquire it tomorrow?" 

Big Chill: "Cool! Let's do it!" 

The two land and begin to head inside the camp

The Enforcer , Tasha and Alvin all awake in the middle of a forest 

The Enforcer: "Where are we?" 

Tasha (Shrugs): "Beats me." 

Alvin: "OH SWEET GALVAN PRIME PLEASE TELL ME I HAVE AWAKENED ON YOUR SOIL!"  

Alvin (Looks around and realizes it's still Amphibia): "Oh god damnit. We're still stuck on this dump!"  

Tasha: "I can't be the only one who thinks this place feels different?" 

The Enforcer: "You're right I feel it too." 

The Enforcer: "Is the bearer is here too?" 

Alvin (Looking at his datapad): "I'm detecting Omnitrix energies not too far from here." 

The Enforcer: "Then our mission isn't over just yet." 

TO BE CONTINUED! 

Chapter Text

Marcy sits in her room waiting patiently for her friend to finally arrive. It had been months since they last hung out but now her friend finally had the time to hang out. Marcy hears a knock at her door and she ran as fast as she could to open it , Once she did her best friend General Yunan was there waiting for her with a big toothy grin 

Yunan: "MARCY!" 

Marcy: "YUNAN!" 

The two hug although Marcy finds is a little harder to breathe 

Marcy: "You're choking me a little dude." 

Yunan (Letting go): "Heh sorry." 

Yunan: "Well how are you doing princess?" 

Marcy: "I'm doing GREAT! How about you general?" 

Yunan: "Well I am the GREAT GENERAL YUNAN SCOURGE OF THE SANDWARS , DEFEATER OF RAGNAR THE WRETCHED AND THE YOUNGEST NEWT EVER TO ACHIEVE THE RANK OF GENERAL IN THE GRAND NEWTOPIAN ARMY!" 

Marcy: "So you're doing great then?" 

Yunan: "Pretty much, Can I come in now?" 

Marcy: "Sure!"  

Yunan enters Marcy's room, Yunan wondered how many times she's been in this room? It would have to be a few 1000 times now? She would proceed to sit down at Marcy's desk and get comfortable

Yunan: "So what's the plan for today?" 

Marcy (Inhales): "WELL!" 

Marcy: "I was thinking about a day of exploration! Every time we hang out we always just kinda sit around but I thought we could do something fun!" 

Yunan: "Well what did you have in mind?" 

Marcy: "I thought we could explore a little beyond the castle! Don't worry! We won't go far! And I always bring a bottle of my medicine with me wherever I go!" 

Yunan: "Ok that's a bit different from what we normally do. What changed? Did something happen?" 

Marcy: "Yeah and for once it's a bit serious." 

Yunan: "What happened?" 

Marcy: "I received a report that Toad separatists have blockaded a vital trade route which happens to transport my medicine. And while we do have a large supply of it at the castle, who knows how long the blockade will last for! So I need to be prepared for the worst." 

Yunan: "So you need my help in ending the blockade? That's an issue for the army to solve, not the night guard." 

Marcy: "Oh I didn't say that! What I've been doing for the past few days was figuring out the ingredients for my medicine and I think I figured it out! Most of the ingredients are already available within the castle, Except two that being the Opin flower and the Dragon fruit which are critical to its creation! Thankfully both are pretty close by so...WHAT DO YOU SAY!?"  

Yunan (Ponders for a moment): "So you want me to help you find some ingredients for medicine that you have plenty of which could result in us losing a limb or our lives?" 

Yunan: "THEN LET'S DO IT!!!" 

The two leave Marcy's room and run towards the stables to begin their adventure 

As the two fly high in the sky as they were both riding Joe Sparrow Marcy notices that Yunan looked deep in thought 

Marcy: "Is everything alright Yunan?" 

Yunan (Gets startled a little): "Oh it's nothing just thinking." 

Marcy: "About what?" 

Yunan: "Have you ever thought about studying it?" 

Marcy: "Study what?" 

Yunan: "The Book Beast." 

Yunan immediately sees Marcy recoil at the sentence with her tail which was wagging before now fall limp and curling itself around Marcy's legs 

Marcy: "You know why I can't." 

Yunan: "You've always had the desire to understand the unexplainable and there is something unexplainable right in our backyard and yet this is the only mystery you don't want to explain." 

Marcy: "Look I don't like to talk about it very much if at all! It just...Hurts that's all to remember that horrible day." 

Yunan: "I'm sorry to bring it up, I've just been thinking about it a lot recently." 

Marcy: "It's alright besides we're friends. If something was on my mind I would tell you so you should have the same right as I do." 

Marcy lands Joe Sparrow near a forest 

Marcy: "I think this is it." 

Yunan: "Well what are we waiting for! Let's get that flower!" 

Marcy: "And fruit!" 

Yunan: "Yeah that too." 

The two hop off Joe Sparrow but Marcy trips and falls and Yunan recoils and looks over and checks Marcy

Marcy: "OOF! I'm ok!" 

Yunan: "Phew." 

Meanwhile in the forest Swampfire and Oxalia are searching for the ingredients 

Oxalia (Observing a datapad): "If scans are to be believed we should be near our remaining ingredients now." 

Swampfire: "If that thing can track our ingredients then why did you have me turn into Swampfire?"

Oxalia: "Methanosians come from a planet full of dangerous living plants not including Methanosians themselves but to track their prey more effectively they have adapted to smell a plants scent from  long distances and can even recognise it down to the finest detail plus my datapad isn't exact on their location." 

Swampfire: "I'm not sure plants can-" 

Swampfire picks up the scent of what she assumes is from one of the ingredients 

Swampfire: "I think I've got something!" 

Swampfire (Motions to Oxalia): "This way!" 

Oxalia follows Swampfire deeper into the forest. Meanwhile Yunan and Marcy are still wandering through the forest

Marcy (Looking at her book): "If this map is correct then the flower at least should be dead ahead." 

Yunan: "I'll scout it out, you stay behind." 

Marcy (Tries to stop Yunan but she fails): "YUNAN! WAIT!" 

Yunan and Swampfire run towards to the middle of a clearing and emerge at opposite ends but don't notice each other initially 

Swampfire: "HEY OXY! I FOUND IT!" 

Yunan: "HEY MARCY! I FOUND IT!  

The two notice each other 

Swampfire and Yunan: "WHO THE HECK ARE YOU!?" 

Yunan: "WHAT THE HECK ARE YOU!?" 

Swampfire: "WHAT THE HECK ARE YOU DOING HERE!?" 

Yunan: "I AM GENERAL YUNAN! SCOURGE OF THE SANDWARS! DEFEATER OF RAGNAR THE WRETCHED! AND THE YOUNGEST NEWT EVER TO ACHIEVE THE RANK OF GENERAL IN THE GRAND NEWTOPIAN ARMY!" 

Yunan: "And that flower has been requested by the princess of Amphibia herself!" 

Swampfire (Ignites her palms on fire): "Likely story." 

Yunan: "Alright then...LET'S DANCE!" 

Yunan lunges at Swampfire with Swampfire spewing fire at Yunan but Yunan simply dodges and decapitates Swampfire and proceeds to cut Swampfire into little tiny pieces 

Yunan (Breathes in and out): "Ah nothing like burned salad in the morning." 

Yunan much to her surprise and horror Swampfire has begun to reform herself from the ground up  

Swampfire: "DUDE! SO UNCOOL!" 

Swampfire right hooks Yunan sending her back a little but she uses her wrist blades to catch herself 

Yunan: "OH! You just made a big mistake buddy!" 

Meanwhile outside the clearing Oxalia and Marcy try to regroup with their friends 

Oxalia: "MARCY! WHERE ARE YOU!?" 

Marcy: "YUNAN! COME ON DUDE! WE NEED TO STICK TOGETHER!" 

While Marcy's back is turned she feels herself bump into a large shape. Until she turns around and finds a large monster with 4 arms and 4 eyes 

Marcy: "AHHHHHHH!!!!" 

Oxalia picks up Marcy and looks at her for a moment 

Marcy: "PUT ME DOWN!" 

Oxalia: "What would a little thing like you be doing in a forest like this?" 

Marcy: "Searching for some ingredients to make a potion!" 

Oxalia: "What potion?" 

Marcy: "To help with my disability!" 

Oxalia: "What disability!?" 

Marcy: "I'm not telling you that!" 

All of a sudden Yunan comes flying in between them but she is slightly burned with her armor having noticeable burns 

Yunan (Dazed): "Oh hey Marcy!"  

A large pile of vines emerge from the ground and restrain Yunan 

Oxalia (Turning to Swampfire): "What was that all about?" 

Swampfire: "Some weirdo was trying to claim one of our ingredients, Said it was for the Princess! HA what a load of-" 

Swampfire (Notices Oxalia is holding her counterpart): "Ah crud." 

Oxalia: "What?" 

Swampfire: "She's telling the truth, that's the princess you're holding dude!" 

Oxalia (Realizes who she's holding and drops her): "OH! My sincerest apologies  your majesty!" 

Swampfire releases Yunan from her vines allowing Marcy and Yunan to hug 

Marcy: "YUNAN! ARE YOU ALRIGHT!?"  

Yunan: "I'm fine, I'm just more worried about you." 

Swampfire: "Look we are really sorry about earlier, If we had known that you were telling the truth we wouldn't have attacked you." 

Marcy: "Well the fact your friend here didn't crush me is proof alone you're telling the truth." 

Swampfire: "Say! We've got a lot of notes on the potion! We'll share it with you if you agree to help us with something." 

Marcy: "HECK YEAH! WE'LL HELP!" 

Yunan: "I don't know." 

Swampfire: "We will meet back at the castle okay?" 

Marcy: "OK! We'll meet you there!" 

Marcy grabs a worried looking Yunan by the hand and the two run off to find Joe Sparrow. With the Newts gone the aliens begin to discuss what to next 

Swampfire: "Look before you ask how I know she's the princess!?" 

Oxalia: "I know you snuck off two nights ago to visit her." 

Swampfire (Confused): "How did you-" 

Oxalia (Shows CCTV footage): "Don't think I didn't take any precautions when setting up camp." 

Oxalia: "But how do we explain to her about how...You know?" 

Swampfire: "It's best not to say anything unless it's absolutely necessary." 

Oxalia: "A logical choice."  

As Yunan and Marcy wait in Marcy's room Yunan paces around the room  

Yunan: "What even were those creatures?" 

Marcy (Looking at a book): "I've looked at every book on local flora and fauna and there is nothing here that resembles these creatures." 

Yunan: "Besides, how can we trust them!? The plant one nearly turned me into barbecue!" 

Marcy: "Yes but she stopped the moment she realised you were telling the truth." 

Yunan: "Yeah sure but how did she know about your medicine!?" 

Marcy: "She referred to it as a potion not medicine. It's unlikely they know I use it." 

Yunan: "Well they clearly know what it does! They said they have notes they can share with us!" 

Marcy: "Well maybe they don't know anymore than we do!" 

Marcy: "Besides, let's see what they need help with! Maybe it's something really minor."  

All of a sudden Oxalia and a giant moth like creature land on the balcony and entered Marcy's room 

Oxalia (Holding a bag): "Sorry we're late, we needed to collect the ingredients." 

Oxalia throws the bag on Marcy's bed with the bag opening to reveal the four armed beasts honesty 

Marcy: "SAY! What happened to the plant guy?" 

Big Chill (Steps forward): "Actually your majesty, I am the plant guy." 

Marcy: "WHAT THE HECK!? HOW IS THIS POSSIBLE!?" 

Big Chill: "It's a bit hard to explain but in short I'm a shapeshifter." 

Marcy: "A SHAPESHIFTER!? THAT IS ONE OF THE COOLEST THING’S I'VE EVER SEEN!" 

Marcy: "WAIT! IF YOU'RE A SHAPESHIFTER DOES THAT MEAN YOU CAN TURN INTO A NEWT!?" 

Big Chill: "I can but I need to be in stronger forms for the moment." 

Marcy: "THIS SO COOL!" 

Yunan: "Not to be a party pooper but um...What exactly are you and why do you need our help?" 

Oxalia: "To keep things simple, we are from another world." 

Marcy (Floored): "ANOTHER WORLD!!!???" 

Big Chill: "Yes but we don't have a way back to our world and we need your help in getting us back." 

Yunan: "Why our help?" 

Oxalia: "My girlfriend here believes that you have the knowledge required to help us." 

Marcy: "I'm really flattered but how could I...Unless...THAT'S IT!" 

Marcy (Jumps up and down): "I GOT IT!" 

Marcy (Runs out of the room): "BE RIGHT BACK!" 

After only a minute Marcy returns back to her room holding a book reading "LOST LEGENDS" 

Marcy (Sets the book on her bed and flicks through its pages): "COME ON! COME ON!" 

Marcy (Finally stops at a page): "HERE WE GO! Page 487! The legend of the temple of Wyattard!"

Big Chill: "Wyattard?" 

Marcy: "It's a temple dating back to well before written history! Legends say that many have gone to the temple to seek forbidden knowledge but no one has ever returned!" 

Marcy: "Thankfully it's really close by!" 

Big Chill: "THEN WHAT ARE WE WAITING FOR! LET'S GET GOING!" 

Oxalia: "My girlfriend and I will meet you at the temple!" 

Marcy: "Actually I want the shapeshifter to come with us!" 

Oxalia (Through gritted teeth): "Very well then." 

Marcy (Gestures at Big Chill): "COME ON! THIS WAY! YOU'RE GONNA LOVE JOE SPARROW!"  

As Joe Sparrow flies high in the sky Marcy asks Big Chill a bunch of questions which she tries to answer to the best of her ability 

Marcy: "Ok so if you're a shapeshifter then what's your true form look like?" 

Big Chill (Unsure how to answer): "Lets just say...Horrors beyond your comprehension." 

Marcy (Writes in her journal): "Got it! Horrors beyond my comprehension."  

Big Chill: "Actually your majesty I have a question of my own if that's alright?" 

Marcy: "Sure thing! It's only fair if you ask me something!" 

Big Chill (Hands Marcy the Terror of the Newtopian book beast magazine cover): "I wanted to ask you about this?" 

Big Chill could see Marcy recoil from even looking at the page 

Marcy: "Where did you get this?" 

Big Chill (lies): "I found it near a local town. I was wondering if you could tell me about it?" 

Yunan: "I think that question is off limits." 

Marcy: "The shapeshifter answered questions that might have been tough for her, It's only fair I answer her question." 

Marcy (Sighs): "A few years back I was in the library just doing normal things until there was a lot of running and screaming. At first I didn't know what was going on until I saw it...THE NEWTOPIAN BOOK BEAST! Because of the mass confusion I wasn't able to evacuate the library in time and so I was stuck inside with the book beast. I was stuck in there for so long I thought it was for sure gonna get me! But thankfully Olivia and Yunan arrived." 

Yunan: "I fought the Book Beast myself; it fled before I could finish it off." 

Marcy: "Since that day I try to forget about it the best I can and make sure the Book Beast incident never happens again." 

Big Chill (Looks Guilty): "I didn't know about that, I'm sorry for bringing it up." 

Marcy: "It's alright as long as you promise not to tell anyone." 

Big Chill: "I cross my heart and hope to die!" 

Marcy: "WAIT PLEASE DON'T DIE!" 

Big Chill: "It's a figure of speech dude." 

Marcy: "Oh sorry." 

As Joe Sparrow and Oxalia land everyone looks at the temple with awe 

Oxalia: "Amphibians built this place?" 

Marcy: "WE SURE DID!" 

Yunan: "This feels like something from one of your stories, Marcy." 

Big Chill: "This looks like something the Aztecs would build!" 

Marcy: "What's an Aztec?" 

Big Chill: "They're an ancient civilisation from my world! They went extinct a very long time ago though, Actually some of its designs vaguely resemble Mayan or Incan temples as well...Interesting very interesting!" 

The group begin to walk towards the temple and seem to step before some kind of door which opens on its own 

Marcy: "OOOOOOH! Creepy!" 

As they enter they find the temple looks like some kind of waiting lounge 

Marcy: "Okay not what I expected." 

Big Chill: "Kind of underwhelming admittedly."  

The door closes behind them and a hologram of some creature appeared in front of them 

The Keeper: "If you are hearing this message then that means you have found the temple of Wyattard! I would say wish you luck but that would suggest I care! If you wish to pass you must learn to fight as one and confront your innermost demons. And I would say you can do it! But you would be surprised how many idiots mess it all up! So yeah you can try but you will probably die!" 

Yunan: "And I think this is the perfect time to leave." 

The Keeper: "I already know assuming there's more of you that you are trying to leave which...GOOD LUCK WITH THAT! Those doors can't be opened again until you complete the trials." 

Yunan: "Oh you have to be kidding me." 

The Keeper: "Oh and with that goodbye and try not to die! My assistant is still pretty annoyed about the last few guys who tried and died here." 

The hologram disappears and the group are unnerved except Oxalia who seems pretty unphased  

Marcy: WHAT WAS THAT ALL ABOUT!? WAS THAT A SPECTRAL CURSE!?" 

Big Chill: "No it's a hologram, something actually pretty non-magical believe it or not." 

Oxalia: "Oh please! It was just a Galvan in a Biosuit! Trying way too hard at being imposing!" 

Yunan: "None of that made any sense." 

Another door opens and the group hesitantly enters. As they enter the next room they find a bare room with the floor being made of sand and gravel instead of the smooth marble like the lobby 

Big Chill: "What is this place?" 

Marcy: "It looks like a-" 

Oxalia and Yunan: "A SPARRING ROOM!?!?!?!?" 

Oxalia and Yunan look at eachother unaware of the others experiences as soldiers 

Yunan: "I didn't know you served?" 

Oxalia: "I DO! I'm a lieutenant in the Tetramand imperial army!" 

Yunan: "A lieutenant!? Not bad!" 

Yunan: "But I can do you one better! Because I'm a general in the grand Newtopian army!" 

Oxalia: "A general!? Not bad Newt!" 

Before the two can continue talking the door shuts behind them and large circular doors open revealing large cat like creatures emerging from it but they lacked eyes and any noticeable ears instead having what appeared to be gills on their necks. The creatures begin to surround the group 

Marcy: "What are those things!?" 

Oxalia: "Vulpamancers."  

Yunan: "You know what these creatures are?" 

Oxalia: "My family has one as a pet, her name is Blonky."  

Big Chill: "So I take it wild ones are bad news?" 

Oxalia: "Very bad news!" 

Big Chill slams the Omnitrx on her chest and transforms into Humungosaur 

Humungosaur: "HUMUNGOSAUR!!!!" 

The group begin to fight the Vulpamancers with Marcy using her crossbow to send a hole in the horde using various gadgets in her arsenal to distract the horde or distract them, While Humungosaur , Oxalia and Yunan take them on with Humungosaur throwing the Vulpamancers who pounce on her at their comrades and stomps the floor causing it to shake sending any other nearby Vulpamancers flying. Yunan rips and tears through the horde without seemingly breaking a sweat and Oxalia beats some of the Vulpamancers with her bare hands and even throws one across the room. But despite the group's best efforts they find they are being overwhelmed by the Vulpamancers. 

Marcy: "THERE'S TOO MANY OF THEM!" 

Yunan (Struggling): "Not to be a butt my lady buuuuut...PLEASE TELL ME YOU HAVE A PLAN!?" 

Oxalia: "I share the sentiment of the General that we need a new strategy...FAST!" 

Marcy: "LEME THINK!" 

Humungosaur (Notices what looks like a leaver): "Hey guys! I think I have an idea!" 

Yunan (Struggling): "WELL WHAT IS IT!?" 

Humungosaur (Kicks a Vulpamancer): "There's a leaver on the other side of the room. If one of us can pull the leaver, it should close the doors and maybe send the Vulpamancers back somehow!" 

Marcy: "Well it's worth a shot!" 

Humungosaur: "If Yunan can clear a path for us then I can turn into Spidermonkey and have Oxalia throw me it should get the job done!" 

Marcy: "WAIT! That big lizard guy has been holding off a large amount of those monsters! Oxalia and Yunan can barely hold them off!"  

Humungosaur: "Then do you have any other ideas?"

Marcy: "My crossbow doubles as a grappling hook. I should be able to reach it if I get a boost!" 

Humungosaur: "So the fastball special? GOT IT!" 

Marcy: "Fastball what!?" 

Humungosaur grabs Marcy and gets ready to throw her 

Humungosaur: "ON 3!" 

Humungosaur (Gets ready to throw Marcy): "1! 2! 3!" 

Humungosaur (Throws Marcy): "THINK FAST!" 

Marcy opens her eyes to find she is flying very fast and is rapidly arriving at the leaver. Marcy quickly fires her crossbow at the leaver which wraps around the lever allowing Marcy to land safely on top of it. Marcy pulls the lever as fast as she could which causes the door to close and the Vulpamancers to run towards them with most of them making it back inside with any stragglers being beaten by Oxalia and Yunan 

Humungosaur: "We did! YEAH!" 

Oxalia holds out her hand to Yunan 

Oxalia: "It was an honor to fight beside you General Yunan." 

Yunan (Shakes Oxalia's hand): "Likewise Lieutenant Oxalia." 

Humungosaur (Runs over to Marcy): "Are you okay? Sorry about throwing you." 

Marcy (Dusts herself off): "I'm fine." 

Marcy nearly throws up but manages to shake herself off but still retches for a moment 

Marcy: "Okay maybe not." 

Another door in front of them opens revealing a small dual hallway. Humungosaur slams the Omnitrix on her chest and transforms into Chromastone. As they enter the room they find two doors parallel of each other 

Chromastone: "Okay so what do we do now?" 

Ancient Runes appear on the door 

Marcy: "Cool!" 

Marcy walks up to the runes but realizes she can't read them 

Marcy: "Dang it! I've never seen this language before so I can't read it!" 

Oxalia (Realization): "But I can!" 

Oxalia (Reads the runes): "It says. If you wish to pass you must brace the demons of the unfamiliar and the familiar." 

Yunan: "The heck does that mean?" 

Chromastone: "I think it mean we have to face our fears with someone-" 

Before Chromastone can finish her sentence the room shifted causing the group to become separated with Chromastone and Marcy falling through one of the doors 

When Marcy awoke she found herself in an odd room with drab colours and dull decor with a small flag with red and white stripes and a blue square in the top left corner with a bunch of stars on it organized in a square pattern. 

Marcy: "What the heck is this place?" 

Chromastone: "Home." 

Marcy: "This is where you're from?" 

Chromastone: "Well no I don't live in this place..." 

Marcy: "Well duh! You don't live in school! At least in Amphibia we don't." 

Chromastone: "It's the same where I'm from." 

Marcy: "Wait, you remember what your girlfriend said?" 

Chromastone: "Of course I do! And I've already thought I figured out what this trial is all about!" 

Marcy: "My guess was something to do with conquering our fears?" 

Chromastone: "I think so. But I think we have to conquer it with unfamiliar people."  

Chromastone: "Which makes no sense! Because!" 

Chromastone (Stops herself): "Never mind, let's just find a way out of here." 

Marcy nods and begins to follow Chromastone. As they exit the classroom Chromastone twiddles her crystalline fingers in an attempt to fight off her anxieties. She remembered the feeling of isolation she felt walking down these halls even when hordes of people were walking them. She hated it, she hated those people , she hated being seen as less , She hated being seen as the ghost in the system but most of all! She hated her...As they passed the trophy wall Chromastone looked at one of the large trophy's which had the words "Becky Snyde'' etched onto its bottom, She looked at the trophy with nothing but contempt and bitterness 

Chromastone (Touching the glass): "You made me feel like I wasn't worth anything, you made me feel like the one thing I was proud of seem useless, But now I don't have to be afraid of you anymore." 

Chromastone fires a blast of energy at the glass which causes to break and the trophy along with a few other ones nearby were destroyed 

Chromastone (Mumbles): "Never again! Never again!" 

Marcy (Confused): "What was that all about!?" 

Chromastone: "Sorry just..." 

Chromastone: "Got reminded of something I would rather forget." 

Marcy: "Heh yeah know the feeling." 

The two begin walking once again in an attempt to find the exit but when they turn to enter another hallway but find it's blocked by two creatures, Chromastone realized that they were Anne and Sasha but her Anne and Sasha or at least the temples versions of them, Marcy could feel a chill go down her spine these creatures they are the same species as the book beast they had to be, In a moment of fear she hides herself behind Chromastone but much to her surprise Chromastone recognised these creatures 

Chromastone: "Anne...SASHY!" 

Sasha: "Don't you Anne and Sashy us!" 

Anne: "Yeah!" 

Chromastone: "Guys! What are you talking about!?" 

Sasha: "Come on dude! You are a terrible liar and an even worse friend!" 

Chromastone: "Guys! What are you saying!?" 

Sasha: "Come on did you really think we wouldn't figure it out!? Then maybe you aren't as smart as you think you are!" 

Anne: "We know you stranded us here on purpose." 

Chromastone: "You don't understand! Do you have any idea how miserable I was? How every day was a nightmare!" 

Anne: "Typical Marcy! Only caring about yourself!" 

Marcy: "Wait what did they just call you!?" 

Chromastone: "I'll explain later!" 

Anne: "You're even lying to the princess of Amphibia herself MARCY!?" 

Chromastone: "Did you not hear me? I just said I would explain everything later!" 

Sasha: "But will you?"  

Chromastone: "I...I! I-I!" 

Marcy could see the shapeshifter was struggling to get her words out as if the weight of her guilt was going to crush her, Marcy was also now suspect of the shapeshifter herself but as the shapeshifter had said herself "That can wait" Marcy finally worked up the courage to stare down the book beasts and stand up for the shapeshifter. 

Marcy: "I don't know what the shapeshifter did or what exactly happened between you three but you have no right to talk to her like that!" 

Anne: "Oh hey Sash! It looks like the princess developed some backbone!" 

Sasha: "Really? Even in this world you're still a huge coward!" 

Marcy (Worried): "What?" 

Anne: "Heck this ones a liar just like our Marcy!" 

Marcy (Turns to Chromastone): "Wait 'Our Marcy'?" 

Chromastone: "The truth is..." 

Chromastone: "I'm you." 

Marcy (Horrified): "What?" 

Chromastone: "Earlier you asked about my true form. Well!"  

Chromastone transforms into not just the same species as the book beast but THE NEWTOPIAN BOOK BEAST! Marcy could feel her breathing becoming more rapid as the creature came closer towards her. 

Marcy 10: "HERE IT IS!" 

Marcy: "Why didn't you tell me!?" 

Marcy 10: "I didn't want to scare you so I remained in my monster form as long as possible, But these...Fake versions of my friends forced me to reveal the truth." 

Marcy 10 (Turns to her friends and looks ready to punch them): "SO I DID IT! ARE YOU HAPPY NOW!?"  

Anne: "One of you has atoned." 

Sasha: "The other has not." 

Anne and Sasha fade into the floor, With Marcy 10 helping her counterpart to calm down, 

Marcy 10: "Hey it's okay! I'm not going to hurt you." 

Marcy: "I know you're not but...Could you turn into something else please! I physically can't look at you right now, No offense." 

Marcy 10: "None taken!" 

Marcy 10 hoped the watch wasn't too drained from the constant time in alien form. Thankfully for Marcy her counterpart's bracelet seemed to be charged or at least had enough time for use. Marcy 10 slams the Omnitrix and transforms into a green bat-like monster. 

Whampire: "WHAMPIRE!!!" 

Whampire: "Better?" 

Marcy: "Still terrifying but a more acceptable form of terrifying." 

Whampire: "Good enough for me!" 

Whampire notices that the door her fake friends were blocking was now wide open 

Whampire: "You ready?"

Marcy: "OH HECK YEAH!" 

The princess grabs Whampires leg and hops on her back and the two enter the door 

When Marcy opens her eyes she feels like she is falling but finds that Whampire is simply gliding until they can land. 

Whampire: "What is this place?" 

Marcy looks around at her surroundings and realizes to her horror is was the Newtopian public library which could only mean one thing...The Book Beast

Whampire: "Wait is this-?"  

Marcy: "Where I encountered the Book Beast? Yup!" 

Before the conversation can continue a mysterious monster pounces at the duo. The creature looked vaguely human but was covered in hair and sharp teeth along with big green glowing eyes. The princess winced but Whampire clawed at the monster but it sent Whampire and by proxy Marcy falling into one of the bookshelves with one slash of its claws. When Marcy awoke she saw that her counterpart had returned to her book beast form. But there was more to be worried about than the shapeshifter's true form. Marcy 10 appears to have used the books to create a makeshift fort to guard them from the Book Monster. 

Marcy: "How long was I out?" 

Marcy 10: "An hour or two." 

Marcy: "Oh thank frog! I was worried it got us!" 

Marcy 10: "Glad to hear it because I need to ask you something." 

Marcy (Uneasy): "Uh...Sure! What is it?" 

Marcy 10: "Tell me the truth about what really happened during the Newtopian Book Beast incident?" 

Marcy: "I already told you! It came out of nowhere and I was trapped inside with it until Yunan and Olivia rescued me!" 

Marcy 10: "That's a load of bull! You and I both know what really happened!" 

Marcy: "What are you talking about!?" 

Marcy 10: "You forgot to take your medicine that day didn't you?" 

Marcy: "I mean sometimes I forgot here and there BUT SO WHAT!? THAT DOESN'T MEAN ANYTHING!" 

Marcy 10: "BUT IT DOES! I overheard your conversation with Oxy and you refused to tell us what your medicine did. But we really were studying that medicine and we found a way to make its effects...Permanent and we knew the truth about the book beast incident." 

Marcy 10: "We know you are the Newtopian Book Beast." 

Marcy (Crying): "You knew the whole time!" 

Marcy 10: "We did! It was one of the reasons I didn't tell you my true identity, we just...Didn't want to cause you any more pain." 

Marcy: "You said you found a way to make my medicine's effects permanent? Could I take it?" 

Marcy 10 (Disapprovingly): "If you want." 

Marcy: "You don't want me to though? Do you?"

Marcy 10: "No but I'm not a parent so I won't stop you I just...Think you're making a terrible mistake if you go through with it." 

Marcy: "Then let's stop ourselves a book beast!" 

Marcy 10: "Heck yeah!" 

Marcy 10 activates the Omnitrix and transforms into a new alien 

Ghostfreak: "GHOSTFREAK!!!" 

Ghostfreak (Grabs Marcy): "Hold on tight!" 

Ghostfreak flies high right to the ceiling and they begin to hunt down the Book monster 

The Book monster searched for its prey hoping to make this trial quick and over it was in no mood to clean up for Sketchzmuth again but they had a persona to put on and who were they to ruin the show? As they searched the creature heard a quiet cackling around her until something was thrown down from the bookshelves which blinds the Book monster for a short time. Until a ghost-like creature appears right in front of it and scares it with a loud screech. Ghostfreak phases in and out of the bookshelf all the while punching the Book monster and even possesses the monster for a short time causing it to punch itself. When Ghostfreak manages to corner the monster Marcy jumps down and fires an arrow at it causing it to be blinded. 

Marcy: WHOOH! WE GOT EM!" 

Ghostfreak: "Hold on it looks..." 

Marcy (Realizes): "Scared?" 

Ghostfreak (Turns to the Book monster): "Why did you attack us?" 

Book Monster: Snarls and growls in a threatening manner 

Ghostfreak: "It's okay! I'm not here to hurt you neither is my friend! We just want to know why you attacked us?" 

Book Monster (In a raspy tone): "Embrace." 

The Book Monster hands Ghostfreak a berry which kind of looks like a blueberry but with stripes on it 

Marcy: "What is that?" 

Ghostfreak: "I don't know?" 

Omnitrix (Blinks and Bleeps): "Unknown Organic substance detected in range, Insert into matrix core for scan." 

Marcy: "Did your chest thingy just talk?" 

Ghostfreak opens the Omnitrixs matrix core and inserts the berry 

Omnitrix (Ejects the berry back into Ghostfreaks hand) "Scan complete, Substance has a unique compound with the ability to disrupt the transmutations from mana manipulation." 

Marcy: "What exactly did any of that mean?" 

Ghostfreak: "I think it's saying that this berry can reverse the effects of your medicine." 

Marcy (Fearfully): "Oh." 

Ghostfreak: "And I don't think you're getting a choice in this." 

Ghostfreak (Turns to the Book Monster): "But can you at least change the setting of this place? Not exactly the best place to confront trauma!" 

Book Monster (Angrily): "Here." 

Ghostfreak (Menacingly): "Oh Ho! Buddy! I wasn't asking." 

The monster finally breaks character and seems to be pleading with Ghostfreak 

Book Monster: "OK! OK! FINE! Just please don't possess me Ectonurite! I'm too young to die!!!" 

Ghostfreak: "WHOA! I WASN'T GONNA-" 

The monster seems to retreat into the cover of darkness and disappears and the room seems to change into Marcy throne room 

After a few minutes the room had fully shifted into Marcy's room. With Marcy tapping her fingers together to calm herself down. 

Ghostfreak: "You ready?" 

Marcy (On the verge of hyperventilating): "DO I LOOK READY!?" 

Ghostfreak (Hovers over to Marcy who has huddled herself into a ball): "Oh Marcy." 

Ghostfreak: "My therapist does this with me whenever I feel overwhelmed or scared. So just take a deep breath in and out and focus on that and keep doing it until you're ready."  

Marcy takes her counterparts advice and does so for a few minutes until she feels calmed down enough to speak 

Marcy: "I'm scared, very scared!" 

Ghostfreak: "I know you are and...I'm scared too." 

Marcy: "You're a superpowered alternate version of me! How could you be scared of anything?" 

Ghostfreak: "I was scared of letting people down, Being seen as less or being forgotten and left behind, But most of all...I was scared of change! I was so scared of letting go I put the people I care about the most in danger because of my selfishness. And I'm going to do whatever it takes to make it right." 

Marcy: "Oh so...A lot of pressure?" 

Ghostfreak: "It's a lot, sure but you still have a lot on your plate too!" 

Marcy: "Yeah, being the princess of all of Amphibia isn't exactly easy!" 

Ghostfreak: "And that's my point, Sure you may technically not be a Newt but if there is one thing that this journey has taught me it's that, You are who you choose to be and that's ok because I'm sure Yunan won't stop being your friend and Andrias will still be your dad no matter what happens!" 

Marcy (Wipes her eyes): "Thanks." 

Ghostfreak (Shows Marcy the berry): "Are you ready?" 

Marcy (Embarrassed): "Could you turn into that big lizard guy? I would really like a big hand to hold?" 

Ghostfreak (hands Marcy the berry): "Sure." 

Ghostfreak slams the Omnitrix and transforms into Humungosaur and curls herself around Marcy, Marcy looks at the berry for a moment she was still terrified but knew that wasn't getting out of this and so before she can reconsider she stuffs the berry in her mouth, She chews it for a moment which much to Marcy's surprise tasted a lot like cherry, Almost immediately she could feel an unbearable heat almost immediately at first she was able to tough it out at first but it eventually became impossible to cope with, Humungosaur curls closer to Marcy trying to serve as a large blanket for her as the screaming started. Marcy could see her vision begin to distort as each eye was seeing differently from each other and she could feel her limbs contort and she could feel her spine twist and bend as it reshaped itself. When the pain finally stops she begins to stir and Humungosaur uncurls herself to give Marcy room. In a moment of denial Marcy touches her face to confirm the change happened, She couldn't feel her slime anymore and she didn't feel her tail either. Marcy begins to cry hugging Humungosaur with Humungosaur slowly rubbing her hair to comfort her. 

Humungosaur: "It's ok malady! There is nothing to be afraid of here! It's just us." 

Marcy (Crying): "I know." 

Marcy fought the urge to drink her medicine. She wasn't sure if taking it would fail the trial but it was a hard urge to fight. Humungosaur notices a door next to them has opened and she reverts to her human form 

Marcy 10: "You did it!" 

Marcy (Looks at the door): "YOU'RE RIGHT! I DID!" 

Marcy 10 puts a shoulder on her counterpart and the two begin to walk towards the door 

Marcy 10: "I'm proud of you princess!" 

Marcy: "You know what? I'm proud of myself too. But could you keep holding me? I’m not great at walking without a tail!"  

Marcy 10 (Puts Marcy’s shoulder on her own): "Sure dude!" 

When Marcy 10 and her counterpart exit the room they find themselves at some kind of large altar with Oxalia and Yunan emerging from the door opposite to them 

Oxalia (Pants): "We made it!" 

Yunan (Also Panting): "OH! Thank frog!" 

Marcy 10: "What happened?" 

Oxalia: "It appears the general of Amphibia is afraid of grubhogs!" 

Marcy (Resists the urge to chuckle): "GRUBHOGS!?" 

Yunan: "HEY I HAD A REALLY BAD EXPERIENCE AS A KID! Those monsters nearly took my arm!" 

Yunan (Confused when looking at Marcy and Marcy 10): "Why am I seeing-" 

Yunan (Realization): "DOUBLE!" 

Yunan runs over to the princess to give her a big hug and comfort the princess 

Yunan: "Marcy!? What happened? I thought you took your medicine!? And why are there two of you!" 

Marcy: "It was a part of the trials but the shapeshifter was actually a version of me the whole time!" 

Marcy 10: "It's true!" 

Yunan: "This is a lot to take in!" 

Yunan (Slyly turns to Oxalia): "At least I'm not afraid of literal fairies!" 

Marcy 10: "FAIRIES!?!?!!?!?" 

Marcy 10 (Flirty): "I didn't think the big bad Oxalia was afraid of a cute little fairy!" 

Oxalia (blushes): "Not fairies! Nemuina! They are a dangerous species of aliens capable of forcing you to experience your worst nightmare!" 

Marcy 10: "Okay now a bit more understandable."  

The Keeper (Arrives at the altar): "Ah so you have passed?" 

Oxalia (Looks up at The Keeper): "We have Galvan! And I have had enough of your trickery!" 

The Keeper: "And my trickery is over you have passed! Hold on a second! OPINARD!" 

The Book Monster emerges from the shadows and seems to shapeshift into their normal form into a form resembling sludge 

Opinard: "Is it gone!?" 

The Keeper: "Sorry about them, they got spooked by an Ectonurite." 

Opinard: "SPOOKED!? That thing nearly traumatized me! Oh and her real name is Sketchzmuth." 

Sketchzmuth: "OPINARD!?" 

Marcy 10: "Sketchzmuth? That kind of sounds like Azmuth?" 

Oxalia: "A lot of Galvan are named after Azmuth some Galvan name themselves others have their parents choose the name." 

Oxalia: "I'm also quite surprised a sludge puppy is in your employ Galvan? It's not exactly easy for Sludge puppies to get employment." 

Opinard (Annoyed): "Cool and you're already using slurs to refer to me? Great! the correct term is Lenopan!" 

Marcy 10 (Slaps Oxalia): "OXY! We do not call somebody that!" 

Oxalia: "I'm sorry it's what my folks call them! HECK IT'S WHAT EVERYBODY CALLS LENOPANS!" 

Sketchzmuth: "ENOUGH!" 

Sketchzmuth: "What is it that you seek?" 

Marcy 10: "In short my girlfriend and I are from another universe and we need to get back to our own!" 

Sketchzmuth: "Understood, I've sent the Tetramand the schematics for a portal frame hope this helps!" 

Oxalia (Activates her datapad): "Confirmed I have received the schematics." 

Sketchzmuth: "Good! Now be gone with you! The Omnitrix bearers Vaxasaurian form greatly damaged some of the temple!" 

Opinard: "Which means we have to fix it, SO WAIT A GO GUYS WAIT A GO!" 

As everybody begins to leave Sketchzmuth talks to Oxalia 

Sketchzmuth: "So...Did project rift succeed Tetramand?" 

Oxalia (Hesitantly): "Yes and no." 

Sketchzmuth: "I wonder how your girlfriend will take the news that you arrived because of your nation's cruel empire." 

Oxalia (Walking away): "Is Galvan prime any better? Whatever! Your opinion is irrelevant!" 

Sketchzmuth: "You cannot hide your secrets forever Tetramand." 

Everyone has now returned to the castle and Oxalia has made the permanent medicine and hands it to Marcy 

Marcy: "So with one sip-" 

Oxalia: "You never have to see your human form again!" 

Marcy (Looks at the permanent medicine while looking at Yunan): "You know this whole day out made me realize, Maybe a part of the reason I fear my human form so much is because of where I transformed. Maybe if I had transformed into my room with You, Olivia and my Dad were there to watch and comfort me, Maybe I wouldn't be so fearful of my human form." 

Marcy (Throws the permanent medicine on the floor shattering): "And I REFUSE! To let fear control me all my life!" 

Oxalia: "A brave and wise decision malady but...DID YOU HAVE TO BREAK IT THOUGH!? THAT TOOK ME HOURS!" 

Marcy grabs her normal medicine from her satchel and drinks it with everyone watching as Marcy's body shrinks a tail emerges and her face contorts into a Newt like muzzle with the transformation completing in matter of seconds

Marcy: "But that's something I'm going to work on. Maybe I'll turn into a human in a setting I'm comfortable with and with somebody I trust." 

Marcy 10 (Warmly smiles): "Thanks for making the right decision dude." 

Marcy: "Well...I have great friends to help me through it." 

Oxalia: "Well we must be going, we have a portal to build!" 

Oxalia activates her jetpack and Marcy 10 transforms into Big Chill 

Big Chill: "BIG CHILL!!!" 

Before the two could fly off Marcy stops them for a second 

Marcy: "WAIT! I know you read about the Book Beast incident but you had to know more than just the story to figure me out?" 

Big Chill: "In a village called Wartwood there is a frog girl named Anne Plantar, she's just like you. She was raised as a frog her whole life but it was only yesterday that she learned that they are human!" 

Marcy: "So there are more like me?" 

Big Chill (Giving a thumbs up): "BINGO!" 

Oxalia (Shaking hands with General Yunan): "Till we meet again General Yunan of Amphibia!" 

Yunan: "I say the same to you Lieutenant Oxalia of Khoros!"  

After Yunan and Oxalia shake hands the two aliens fly off into the sunset 

Yunan: "Today was very weird." 

Marcy: "Super weird but a good kind of weird!" 

Marcy: "Well I did get us a reservation at the Mountain top bistro hope they don't mind us being a bit late." 

Yunan (Walking off with Marcy): "Haha! Well said!"

Epilogue 

Marcy enters the royal dining room with her father waiting patiently for her 

Marcy (Sits down): "Hey dad!" 

Andrias: "Hey there kiddo! How was your day with the general?" 

Marcy (Nervously): "Hey dad...I kind of have a big ask?" 

Andrias: "Sure, ask away!" 

Marcy: "It has come to my attention from a...Anonymous source that there is someone else like me in frog valley named Anne Plantar and...I would like to arrange a meeting with her." 

Andrias: "She's a frog Marcy I don't...Oh is she?" 

Marcy (holds her medicine for a second before putting it back): "Yes she is." 

Andrias: "Well then we will establish contact with her at once, On another note you have a visitor." 

Marcy: "I do?" 

Andrias gestures to his right and Marcy turns to find a imposing knight standing in the darkness 

Andrias: "I don't know who she is but they claim to be a member of the Night Guard and claim to be the same rank as you and they call themselves...The Enforcer." 

Marcy: "How can you trust them?" 

Andrias: "The armor is much more advanced than typical night guard armor, only we have access to that kind of tech." 

Marcy looked at the armor for a moment and noticed much of it's technology was similar to the Cores but some of it looked even more advanced but it still resembled the armor of a Newtopian Night guard 

The Enforcer: "Thank you my king. It is an honor to meet the princess of Amphibia herself." 

Marcy (Bows): "Um...The honor is mine." 

The Enforcer: "Now if I'm not mistaken you have an emergency meeting to attend with one of the nobles my king." 

Andrias (Frustrated): "AH DANG IT! I KNEW I WAS FORGETTING SOMETHING!" 

Andrias (Runs off): "This will be really quick kiddo I'll be back in a sec." 

With Andrias now gone The Enforcer closes the door and turns back to the princess 

The Enforcer: "Now that he's gone we can get to business." 

Marcy (Nervously laughs): "Um what business?" 

The Enforcer: "Did you encounter something or...Someone strange today princess? A...Shapeshifter perhaps?" 

Marcy: "I don't know what you're talking about!" 

The Enforcer: "Maybe I didn't make myself clear. WE! Know you encountered a dangerous shapeshifter today, Now tell me where did she go?" 

Marcy: "Who do you mean by...We?" 

Alvin spooks Marcy by emerging under the table 

Alvin (Barely able to contain his excitement): "FASCINATING! SO FASCINATING!" 

The Enforcer: "What did you learn Alvin?" 

Alvin (Hops on The Enforcers shoulder): "The elixir the princess drinks has mutagenic properties capable of altering the drinker on the genetic level!" 

The Enforcer: "Not what I was hoping for but information nonetheless." 

Tasha emerges from the shadows and at first growls but stops when she realizes who she's growling at 

Tasha: "I am not...THREATENING A KID!" 

The Enforcer: "She isn't a kid Tasha." 

Tasha (Gestures at Marcy): "LOOK AT HER!" 

The Enforcer: "Then I will do it myself." 

The Enforcer (Turns to a shivering Marcy): "I must admit there isn't much preventing me from telling the kingdom your...Little secret." 

Marcy (Fearfully): "What secret!?" 

The Enforcer: "Nobody really knows who the princess of Newtopia is! I'm sure the whole kingdom would like to know who will succeed Andrias after his reign is over?" 

Marcy: "I'm not going to say anything to you." 

The Enforcer: "Are you sure? Because I can already imagine the kingdoms disgust when they find out the heir to the throne isn't even a Newt but...A certain Book Beast perhaps?" 

Marcy (Crying): "How did you-" 

The Enforcer: "Know? Our spymasters know much about you, One of the perks of having power hungry nobles all around you." 

Marcy (Crying): " FINE! I don't know where they are! But if I had to take a guess, maybe they are somewhere near Wartwood!" 

The Enforcer: "Good! Now...That wasn't so hard was it?" 

The Enforcer (Gestures at Tasha and Alvin): "We are moving out. I'll send a letter to the local toad lord of our coming arrival in the valley." 

The Enforcer leaves the room with Tasha and Alvin looking at her direction with disgusted expressions 

Tasha (Turns to Marcy): "Hey mate!?" 

Marcy (Sniffles): "Huh?" 

Tasha: "Warn your friend that we're coming and that it's not safe in the valley! And if you happen to see a four armed monster tell her that Tasha was the one who warned you." 

Marcy with tear filled eyes nods and with that Tasha holds a now confused and suspicious Alvin with the two of them leaving the room and Marcy alone. With Marcy breaking down in tears over selling out her new friends...

  TO BE CONTINUED!!!

Chapter Text

The Enforcer , Tasha and Alvin land at Toad tower admittedly riding one of giant scarab beetles wasn't as effective as Joe Sparrow was but that didn't matter. The Enforcer had a mission to complete and who was she to leave it unfinished? When Captain Grime saw the beetle along with what he assumed were soldiers from Newtopia he was surprised to say the least normally he would receive a formal letter from the castle notifying him but he was more worried about his lieutenant, It was hard to admit but he had grown to care about Sasha and if there was thing he couldn't stand was putting Sasha at risk not just because of her utility in combat but also because Sasha is a kindred spirit and what kind of toad would he be to not help light that fire inside her. 

Grime (Turns to one of his soldiers): "Tell the lieutenant to take her medicine...We have visitors." 

As The Enforcer and her companions entered Toad tower they all would agree that it was unnerving to enter a building which in their world was destroyed. Neither of the three had met Captain Grime when Alvin first got a glimpse of him he cowered on Tasha's neck fearing that even one wrong look might get him killed. Tasha had heard of Captain Grime, She had heard he was a War criminal during the Insurgence of Bonfrag and while Tasha may have been a hired gun she was no war criminal and so Tasha looked at him with nothing but contempt in her eyes. Sasha was extremely annoyed that she had plans for beauty rest but instead she had to take her medicine to meet some no good filthy Newt elites, She was surprised that none of them were Newts, Maybe the armored one is a Newt but she lacks any kind of tail but Sasha simply tried not to look. Once this meeting was done she could go back to normal. 

Grime (Annoyed): "What do you want, Newtopian?" 

The Enforcer: "Forgive me Toad lord but we have urgent business to discuss." 

Grime (Losing his patience): "WELL WHAT IS IT!?" 

The Enforcer: "We believe that a dangerous shapeshifter is on the loose in a town within your jurisdiction and I am on a mission to hunt it down." 

Grime: "How dangerous are we talking?" 

The Enforcer: "She is a threat to everyone and everything in all of Amphibia." 

Grime (Worried): "This sounds rather serious for my involvement or my troops involvement."  

The Enforcer (Ominous): "Oh don't worry I have more than enough power to deal with them." 

The Enforcer: "And I'm not requesting your entire army, I am requesting...Your lieutenant." 

Sasha (Shocked and Confused): "ME!?" 

Grime: "My Lieutenant is merely a child! She's only thirteen!" 

The Enforcer: "So what!? I'm only two years older than her." 

Grime: "Besides even if my Lieutenant wanted to go she has a terrible-" 

The Enforcer (Interrupts him) : "I'm not fooled, Toad lord, I'm more than aware of the Lieutenant's little secret." 

Sasha (Nervously): "What secret!?" 

The Enforcer: "That you are a Human in a Toads body? I'm more than aware of your medicine and what it can do."  

Percy: "How did you!?" 

Grime (Angrily): "PERCY!"

The Enforcer: "My spymasters are some of the best in all of Amphibia! And I know every little secret you have. I even have some serious dirt on King Andrias himself." 

Grime (Ponders): "Hmmmmm..." 

Grime (Shrugs): "Very well Newtopian, You can have my lieutenant but on one condition."

The Enforcer: "And what would that be Toad Lord?" 

Grime: "Yesterday during our annual tax on the local towns a beast was spotted attacking our men, Its description is similar to our lieutenant for the most part, I believe it is in our best interests to find this beast." 

The Enforcer: "I am in agreement." 

Grime: "And in case you find either of them...You may take whatever action you deem as necessary." 

The Enforcer: "I had a feeling you would say that." 

Before Sasha could join with The Enforcer, Percy and Braddock block the towers door preventing The Enforcer from leaving 

Grime: "PERCY!? BRADDOCK!? WHAT ARE YOU IDIOTS DOING!?" 

Braddock (Ignoring Grime): "I don't know who you are but I'm not letting you take our daughter!" 

Percy: "YEAH! ME TOO!" 

The Enforcer: "Hm very well." 

Braddock (Surprised): "Huh that went better than I thought it would." 

Percy: "Same here!" 

The Enforcer grabs Braddock and tosses her across the room and Percy is kicked to the floor before being restrained by The Enforcer  

The Enforcer: "Which is what I would say if I was some fool with a bleeding heart. Now do not interfere again or..." 

The Enforcer (Draws her sword and threatens Percy with it): "I might have to cut Grimes army down to size a little." 

Grime: "On the one hand not a fan of you threatening the lives of one or two of my soldiers, On the other hand that was pretty hardcore." 

The Enforcer: "Come along now Lieutenant, we have much to do."  

As Sasha joins up with The Enforcer Tasha and Alvin give a dirty look at The Enforcer with her choosing to ignore them, Tasha helps Percy to his feet and Braddock is being checked on by Alvin 

Tasha: "Sorry about her mate she's been a little-" 

Alvin: "Psychopathic?" 

Tasha: "Yeah that works." 

Percy (Fearful): "I don't know what you creatures are but thanks for helping us." 

Alvin: "If it makes you feel any better The Enforcer will try to prevent any possible harm to-" 

Alvin (Noticing Tasha glaring at him): "I mean we'll make sure nothing bad happens to Sasha." 

Braddock: "Just keep her safe...please" 

Tasha: "You have our word." 

Alvin: "Wait our-" 

Tasha (glaring at Alvin): "Is that a problem?" 

Alvin: "No it's not a problem." 

Tasha and Alvin exit the tower and find Sasha and The Enforcer standing there waiting for them 

The Enforcer: "Good you're here." 

The Enforcer: "Sasha these are our comrade's, Tasha is our muscle and Alvin is our brains." 

Tasha (Rolls her eyes): "Yeah fine, sure nice meeting you." 

Alvin: "Yeah we literally don't care." 

Sasha: "Yeah I already don't like you two..." 

The Enforcer: "Enough!" 

Alvin: "I got to ask but how exactly are we going to lure the Shapeshifter and the Beast to Wartwood?" 

The Enforcer: "If our spymasters are to be believed then the Beast lives within the town." 

Sasha: "Ok but what about your shapeshifter?" 

The Enforcer: "Alvin, Do you have your Prypatosian-A, Neutroide bomb?" 

Alvin: "Yeah of course I-" 

Alvin: "WAIT! You wouldn't!?" 

The Enforcer: "I would." 

Tasha: "ARE YOU SERIOUSLY PLANNING ON DESTROYING A LITTLE FROG VILLAGE JUST TO CAPTURE SOMEBODY WHO MAY NOT EVEN BE HOSTILE!?" 

The Enforcer: "It's a necessary sacrifice to save all of Amphibia." 

Tasha (Sighs): "Anne...What happened to you?  When I first met you, You were the kindest, most compassionate being I've ever met! If there was someone in need you always helped them and If somebody wasn't your friend before they met you? You'd be best mates with them just moments after meeting them. It's just after the Ernst incident you...You changed! You're emotionless , heartless and cruel! And I didn't want to believe it. I had hoped it was just a phase but...You're not the person you used to be and You're far from the same person that I was willing to die for." 

The Enforcer: "That Anne died a long time ago." 

Tasha: "That's not true! I know it's not true!" 

The Enforcer: "Well it is true and the sooner you accept it the better." 

Tasha: "Then I guess...Alvin and I walk." 

The Enforcer: "Then so be it." 

Tasha (Before leaving): "I hope you see just how far you have fallen from the person you used to be." 

Tasha and Alvin storm off with The Enforcer and Sasha watching them leave 

Sasha: "What will we do with them?" 

The Enforcer: "I'll back for them when the shapeshifter is captured, But this act of mutiny will not go unpunished on their part." 

Sasha: "Forgive me for questioning you but...Earlier you called me a human, Is that what I am?" 

The Enforcer (Bends down to touch Sasha's shoulder): "Yes you are human, We are from another world called Earth, And I'm trying to find my friends and a way home." 

Sasha: "Wait...WE!?" 

The Enforcer removes her helmet and much to Sasha's surprise the Enforcer was also human! Although The Enforcer was a little different than Sasha's human form with The Enforcer having brown skin , Brown Bushy hair, The Enforcer also seemed to be taller than Sasha's human form but The Enforcer had a huge scar on her left eye with the scarred eye glowing blue. 

The Enforcer (Putting her helmet back on): "Unlike them I believe you understand why my actions seem so cruel." 

Sasha (Realization): "You're desperate? Aren't you?"

The Enforcer (sighs): "Yes, What Tasha and Alvin have never considered is a really simple question. How far will you go to protect the people most dear to you?" 

Sasha: "I would go as far as possible!" 

The Enforcer: "Good, Now come along! We are going on a monster hunt." 

Humungosaur lifts a part of the portal frame with Oxalia guiding her 

Oxalia: "Ok move that to the left okay a little too far right, No! Now you're going too far left, Wait! Move that a little to the left AND!" 

Oxalia (Humungosaur putting a part of the frame in place): "THERE!" 

Humungosaur (Pants): "Geez babe, since when did you become my foreman?" 

Oxalia: "Well we are building a portal to another dimension. We have to be very careful for all we know one wrong move could create a blackhole." 

Humungosaur (Awkwardly tries to flirt): "Since when did you start sounding smart? Because I'm really Lovin it." 

Oxalia: "Dude I've sounded smart ever since we met! Have you never noticed?" 

Humungosaur (Panics): "NO I DID! I JUST..." 

Oxalia: "It's fine I know you were trying to flirt although it was really bad."  

Humungosaur: "Yeah it was pretty bad." 

Oxalia: "Well it's not like my flirting skills are any better." 

Humungosaur: "DAH! You're just being nice." 

Oxalia (Chuckles): "HA! No! I'm serious! I'm a total dork! At least amongst Tetramands." 

Humungosaur: "You a dork? DUDE! You're like one of the coolest people I've ever met!" 

Oxalia: "I'm not as cool as you think." 

Humungosaur (Picks up Oxalia): "Come here you!" 

Humungosaur begins to kiss Oxalia but before the two can get started Humungosaur notices something flying high in the sky 

Humungosaur (Pulls back): "Hey Oxy! What the heck is that?" 

Oxalia (Looks up): "It looks like a-" 

Humungosaur: "Giant Bird?" 

Joe Sparrow lands with Humungosaur noticing Marcy sitting there 

Humungosaur: "HEY THERE OTHER ME! HOW ARE YA DOIN!?" 

Humungosaur (Notices that Marcy is crying): "Uh is everything-" 

Marcy (Gets off Joe Sparrow and hugs Humungosaurs leg): "I'm sorry! I'm really sorry, I didn't mean to! I swear!" 

Humungosaur: "Hey it's okay! Everything is going to be okay! Just tell us what happened, Did somebody see you transform?" 

Marcy: "No." 

Oxalia: "Then what happened?" 

Marcy: "I don't know who they were but they were after you shapeshifter." 

Humungosaur: "Why would they be after me?" 

Marcy: "They think you're dangerous and they somehow knew I met you, And threatened to expose me if I didn't tell them where you were hiding." 

Oxalia: "So out of fear you sold us out." 

Marcy: "It's not like I wanted to! but one of them told me to warn you specifically...uh." 

Oxalia: "Oxalia, My name is Oxalia." 

Marcy (Turns to Oxalia): "Yeah it was somebody named Tasha who told me to warn you." 

Oxalia: "WAIT TASHA TOLD YOU!?" 

Humumgosaur: "Oxy you know who that is?" 

Oxalia: "I do! She is my best friend. We grew up together!"  

Marcy: "She told me that it was too dangerous for you to remain here." 

Oxalia: "Say! How did you know we were hiding here?" 

Marcy: "I didn't and to be completely honest I just told them what I knew so I flew here hoping that you either left or were set up someplace else." 

Marcy (Cries even harder): "Sadly this was the one time I wanted to be wrong." 

Humungosaur (Allows Marcy to continue crying into her leg): "Hey! Hey! It's alright we know you didn't want to tell them and we have more than enough power to protect ourselves." 

Marcy: "Are you sure?" 

Humungosaur: "I'm more than sure." 

Marcy (Nervously): "Could I crash here for the night? I'm a little scared of going back to the castle right now." 

Humungosaur (Picks up Marcy): "Of course I think we have a spare few beds for you." 

Humungosaur enters into a bedroom with various posters in a alien language which Marcy looks at it curiously

Marcy: "What do those posters say?" 

Humungosaur (Tucking Marcy into bed): "Oh these thing's? There are some posters one of Oxy's colleagues used to own when he left the army he gave them to her as a gift." 

Marcy: "This isn't Oxy's room is it? I don't want to steal her room!?" 

Humungosaur: "No, it was the other guy's old room." 

Marcy: "Could I read those posters?" 

Humungosaur: "Sure, whatever helps you sleep." 

Humungosaur smiles weakly at her counterpart before shutting out the light

Humungosaur reverts back to human and walks over to Oxalia who is calibrating the portal through her datapad 

Oxalia: "So, How's the princess." 

Marcy 10: "She's shaken but she'll be ok." 

Oxalia: "Although I feel sympathy for the princess I unfortunately did not inherit my fathers sense of optimism, The princess has put us in serious danger so finishing the portal should be our top priority." 

Marcy 10: "Ok but what about the campsite? We're building the portal here and we can't exactly move it around." 

Oxalia: "This is a Tetramand portable military base we aren't defenseless." 

Oxalia presses a button on her datapad which causes turrets to sprout from all over the base 

Base AI: "Base defenses online." 

Oxalia (Points at one of the turrets): "See?" 

Marcy 10: "Yeah those are some...Really big guns." 

Oxalia: "Well of course they are! They are designed to shoot down enemy ships during an orbital bombardment." 

Marcy 10 (Blushing): "I wasn't talking about the turrets dude." 

Oxalia (Blushes): "Oh...Um uh." 

Oxalia (Oxalia.exe has stopped working lol): "Well um...I! uh..." 

Marcy 10: "Whoa hey dude! Are you ok?" 

Oxalia (Shakes her head): "I'm fine, that was just...Really freaking smooth dude." 

Marcy 10 (Blushes): "Oh uh! Um uh THANKS!" 

Oxalia: "Good now we're even." 

Marcy 10 (Also shakes her head): "Tomorrow I'm heading into Wartwood, If the people hunting me are really after me they are gonna start at Wartwood and if these people are really after me then they are probably crazy and the town could be in serious danger!" 

Oxalia: "I agree but remain in your Newt form at all times and remain hidden! Only take another form if you are in danger or the Omnitrix is out of charge." 

Marcy 10: "Got it!" 

Tomorrow morning Anne and the Plantars are eating breakfast. Hop-pop begins to sort through letters until he gasps loudly which startles Anne , Sprig and Polly. 

Anne: "Hop-pop! What's going on!?" 

Sprig: "DID SOMEONE JUST DIE!?" 

Polly: "Hehe cool." 

Hop-pop: "No, we just got a letter from the King of Amphibia himself!"

Anne: "I don't know Hop-pop? This sounds like a scam of some kind!" 

Hop-pop: "No this is real! It has the royal seal and everything and-" 

Hop-pop (Confused): "That's odd?" 

Anne: "See, tell you." 

Hop-pop: "No the letter it's...Addressed to you Anne." 

Anne (Gasps): To me?" 

Hop-pop (Hands her the letter): "Seems like it." 

Anne (Opens the letter and reads it aloud): "Dear Anne Plantar, If you are reading this letter then that means it actually got here (Holy frog it actually got here!) I am the princess of Amphibia and it has come to my attention we have something in common, something that only we have shared and no one else, I will be sending a contact of mine to pick you up and take you to Newtopia! Of course I only ask that you keep our meeting confidential because it would be quite the scandal if the princess of all of Amphibia became friends with a mere farm frog (No offense!) I look forward to meeting you! Sincerely ML!" 

Anne (Scoffs): "This is totally a scam! There is no way Princess Marcy wants to meet me!" 

Hop-pop: "I mean it’s not impossible the king might have heard about you standing up to those toads for us."

Hop-pop: "Well the letter said somebody will come pick you up so if it's true then all we have to do is wait." 

Before the conservation can continue the Plantars hear a knock at the door in which Hop-pop opens it and sees a large knight standing imposingly at the door with a pink Toad standing next to her 

Hop-pop (Nervously): "Can...I uh help you?" 

The Enforcer: "Does Anne Plantar live here?" 

Hop-pop (Nervously): "Ummmm YES?" 

The Enforcer: "Good." 

The Enforcer rips the door off its hinges and barges into the house, Sprig and Polly cower under the table with Anne being to scared to move, The Enforcer layed eyes on her froggy counterpart there was a level of sympathy she felt for the poor frog but if she was the beast that Grime had requested then who was she to disobey orders? The Enforcer focussed and taps into her powers to grab the blue frog with blue energy surrounding the frog as it drags the frog to the Enforcer 

The Enforcer: "Hello Anne." 

Anne: "Who are you!? What do you want!?" 

The Enforcer (With her powers she psychically tosses Anne right outside the Plantar house): "I WILL ASK QUESTIONS HERE! NOT YOU!" 

The Enforcer (Kneels down and threatens Anne with her sword): "Now tell me Anne in the last few days did you encounter or experience anything strange?" 

Anne: "NO! WHAT ARE YOU TALKING ABOUT!?" 

The Enforcer: "Do not play dumb with me! I know that you are not really a frog and that you encountered a shapeshifter." 

Anne: "How do you..." 

The Enforcer: "Know? My spymasters know much farmer." 

Sasha emerges from the plantar house with the Plantars now being tied up  

The Enforcer: "The beast's family didn't give you much trouble did they?" 

Sasha: "No, not really the pink one was just annoying." 

Sasha (Puts a sword near Sprigs throat): "Please let me cut this brat down to size?" 

The Enforcer: "No, despite not being a toad you still think like one, We can't just hit something really hard or threaten someone to get what we want. Interrogation is an art something you toads never really figured out." 

Anne: "HEY GET YOUR HANDS OFF MY BROTHER!" 

The Enforcer: "You are in no position to argue beast." 

Anne: "Please! Let us GO! WE didn't do anything!" 

The Enforcer: "You didn't think your little stunt with the toads would be forgotten so easily." 

The Enforcer (Raises her sword): "And dangerous beasts like you...Must be put down." 

Hop-pop: "NO! PLEASE!" 

Anne winces preparing for the end but she feels a gust of wind and when she opens her eyes she realizes that the shapeshifter just saved her 

Anne: "Shapeshifter!?" 

XLR8: "HEY ANNE!! YA MISSED ME!?" 

Anne: "Not the time!" 

XLR8: "Oh yeah right." 

The Enforcer (Turns to XLR8): "So....We finally meet shapeshifter." 

XLR8: "Ok....Getting a lot of creepy stalker vibes from you dude." 

The Enforcer: "I've spent nearly a month tracking you and all my hard work has led to this moment." 

XLR8: "So you're the creep that's been hunting us!" 

The Enforcer: "That is correct now...Either you come with me willingly or..." 

The Enforcer (Points her sword at XLR8): "I bring you in by force." 

XLR8: "I'd like to see you try." 

XLR8 runs at The Enforcer but with speed XLR8 has never seen before The Enforcer grabs XLR8s leg and tosses her to the Plantar house 

XLR8: "Uggghhh...." 

XLR8; "WAIT HOLD ON! DID YOU JUST THROW ME!? AT THE SPEED I WAS GOING! I WOULD AT LEAST BE 30X FASTER THAN SOUND!" 

The Enforcer: "As I said to the toad lord! I am more than capable of apprehending you." 

XLR8: "Is that so?" 

XLR8 slams the Omnitrix on her chest and transforms into Humungosaur 

Humungosaur: "HUMUNGOSAUR!!!" 

Humungosaur tries to whip The Enforcer with her tail but with superhuman speed she dodges and uppercuts Humungosaur sending Humungosaur backwards with Humungosaur proceeding to stomp the floor creating a small shockwave with The Enforcer jumping at a inhuman height and slams Humungosaur sending her flying until she crashes back down right next to Anne 

The Enforcer: "Are you done?" 

Humungosaur: "We'll pick this up later." 

Humungosaur slams the Omnitrix on her chest and turns back into XLR8, XLR8 grabs Anne and runs into the forest with Anne feeling tears streaming down her face 

Anne: "MY FAMILY! WE HAVE TO GO BACK FOR THEM!" 

XLR8: "And we will! But we need to keep you safe too." 

XLR8 along with Anne runs through the forest to return to the campsite. Meanwhile The Enforcer helps Sasha to her feet 

The Enforcer: "Are you alright?" 

Sasha: "I take it that's the shapeshifter you're hunting?" 

The Enforcer: "It is." 

Sasha: "Well some hunter you are! It got away!" 

The Enforcer: "Yes she did! But..." 

The Enforcer (Menacingly turns to the Plantars): "We still have plan B." 

Tasha and Alvin wander the forest in search of refuge 

Alvin: "TASHY! WE'VE BEEN WANDERING FOREVER!" 

Tasha: "Mate we haven't been wandering for that long." 

Alvin: "Well forgive me for being a bit tired, BUT WE HAVE BEEN WANDERING GOING TO WHO KNOWS WHERE SINCE LAST NIGHT!" 

Tasha: "Alright if I tell you where we are heading then will you stop whining?" 

Alvin: "Maybe." 

Tasha: "We're trying to find Oxalia." 

Alvin: "Wait Oxy? Did you hit your head on a Petro Sapien or something!? Oxy isn't here! Even if she was sucked through she wouldn't've-" 

Tasha: "She's here, And I know she is here because I met her again a while back." 

Alvin (Hurt): "You met her...And you didn't tell me?" 

Tasha: "I wanted to tell you Alvin I did! But she promised me not to." 

Alvin: "Why?" 

Tasha (Sighs): "Alvin...She's with the bearer of the Omnitrix." 

Alvin: "SHE'S WHAT!?" 

Tasha: "Yeah the two of them seemed pretty close when I met them last, I know where she is because I put a tracker on her when we were 6 surprised she still hasn't figured out it's there." 

Alvin: "Well where is she then!?" 

Tasha: "If scans are to be believed then she is somewhere in the forest." 

Tasha: "In fact she's just dead ahead!" 

Tasha uses her long claws to cut through the forest which exposes a large camp with advanced alien tech 

Tasha: "And we found her." 

Alvin: "WAIT!? She's still using that MK4 portable base? They phased that model out before she was even born!" 

Tasha: "You know Oxy, Always picks the classics." 

Alvin: "True." 

Oxalia emerges from her quarters and stretches eventually she turns to find Tasha and standing there with Alvin sitting on her shoulder, Oxalia rubs her eyes to confirm she's not hallucinating 

Oxalia: "Alvin? TASHA!?" 

Tasha: "Heya mate! You miss us!?" 

Oxalia runs over to Tasha and Alvin and hugs them 

Oxalia (Tearing up): "I missed you guys." 

Tasha: "Yeah I missed you too mate." 

Alvin (Jumping onto Oxalia while crying): "OXY!!! I MISSED YOU AND YOUR PRIMITIVE SAVAGERY SO MUCH!!!!"

Oxalia: "ALVIN!? YOU'RE HERE TOO!?" 

Alvin: "YEAH! BUT IT DOESN'T MEAN I WANT TO BE!!! WHAHAHAHHAHAHAWH!!" 

Tasha: (Grabs Alvin and puts him back on her shoulder): "Alright that's enough! The princess! Is she with you?" 

Alvin: "Yes she's recovering in a spare room, Whatever happened at the castle spooked her pretty bad." 

Tasha: "I would imagine so...The Enforcer is going too far this time!" 

Oxalia: "The Enforcer?" 

Tasha: "The creep that's been hunting you and the Omnitrix bearer?" 

Oxalia: "So they are the ones that are hunting us." 

Tasha: "Yup I've not told her anything about the Omnitrix bearer." 

Oxalia: "She has a name." 

Alvin: "I AM PUMPED TO MEET THE BEARER OF THE MOST POWERFUL DEVICE IN THE UNIVERSE!" 

Alvin: "I bet she would have to be a very wise and responsible Galvan." 

Oxalia: "Yeah...About that." 

XLR8 emerges from the forest holding a worried looking blue frog clutching on her back 

XLR8: "Oxy!" 

Oxalia: "Marcy what happened!?" 

XLR8: "The Plantars were attacked. I managed to get Anne out of there but I couldn't save the rest of them." 

Oxalia (Worried): "Are they..."

XLR8: "It doesn't seem like they will hurt them but they likely captured them." 

Oxalia: "Take Anne to one of the spare rooms she likely needs some rest." 

XLR8: "Got it." 

XLR8 runs in and leaves Anne in the spare room, XLR8 runs over to Oxalia 

XLR8 (Points at Tasha and Alvin): "Who's this?" 

Oxalia: "Marcy...This is Alvin and Tasha, my best friends." 

Alvin (Hoping on the Omnitrix): "OH MY! I'VE WAITED FOR THIS MOMENT FOR YEARS! IN FACT I THOUGHT IT WAS JUST A MYTH BUT NOW! YOU ARE ONE LUCKY GALVAN!" 

XLR8: "I love the enthusiasm but...I'm not a Galvan." 

Alvin: "HAHAHAHAHAAH!!!!! Wait what?"  

XLR8 slams the Omnitrix on her chest and reverts back to her human form 

Marcy 10: "Tada!" 

Alvin (Tries to restrain his anger before letting it out): "The bearer of the Omnitrix isn't a Galvan....BUT A FREAKING MONKEY! OH FOR THE THINKERS SAKE WHO'S IDIOTIC IDEA WAS IT TO GIVE THE APE THE MOST POWERFUL DEVICE IN THE UNIVERSE!" 

Marcy 10: "HEY! Its creator gave me the watch." 

Alvin: "Azmuth himself gave you the watch!?" 

Alvin: "You're telling me that the smartest being in 8 galaxies." 

Marcy 10 (Smugly): "5 actually." 

Alvin: "Oh whatever! But you're telling me one of the smartest beings in the universe just up and gives you the Omnitrix." 

Marcy 10: "Pretty much." 

Alvin: "THAT IS ONE OF MOST RIDICULOUS-" 

Alvin collapses to the floor in exhaustion 

Marcy 10: "IS HE OK!?" 

Tasha: "Let's just say it's been a long journey to get here." 

Marcy 10: "Why is he such a jerk?" 

Oxalia: "That's just the way he is and he's been that way since he was a tadpole." 

Marcy 10: "I think building the portal should be put on hold! We need to rescue the plantars!" 

Tasha: "Agreed but uh...Who exactly are the Plantars?" 

Marcy 10: "I'll explain everything." 

Right after XLR8 dropped Anne off at one of the spare rooms, She finds that the room is full of posters in an alien language but she notices that someone else is in the room with her 

Anne: "Hello, is somebody here?" 

All of a sudden a blanket sitting on a bed raises and falls to the floor with a Newt emerging from the fallen blanket 

Marcy: "OOOF!" 

Anne (Runs over to the green newt): "ARE YOU OK!?" 

Marcy: "I'm fine! Believe it or not this is pretty normal for me to fall over like that." 

Anne (Realization): "Say you kind of look like the shapeshifter." 

Marcy: "Yeah I know it's really complicated like we are the same person but we also aren't." 

Marcy: "Well uh what's your name?" 

Anne: "I'm Anne...Anne Plantar." 

Much to Anne's surprise Marcy seems to jump up and down with excitement giddily laughing 

Marcy: "OH MY GOSH! OH MY GOSH! OH MY GOSH! IT'S YOU!" 

Anne: "Huh? You know who I am?" 

Marcy: "Of course I do! I was the one who sent you a letter! You did get it right?" 

Anne: "Wait! You mean-" 

Marcy: "YOU DID GET MY LETTER!" 

Marcy (Bows cordially): "My name is Marcy Leviathan princess of Amphibia! And you and I have a lot in common." 

Anne: "Like what?" 

Anne could observe that Marcy's tone had changed from sheer unadulterated excitement to a kind of quite somber tone 

Marcy (Holding out her medicine): "I think we're related in a way." 

Anne looks at Marcy's medicine for a moment. It did resemble hers a little with the liquid being a lighter shade of yellow than hers with green coral seeming to serve as some kind of decoration on the bottle itself. 

Anne: "So are you..." 

Marcy: "Also a human raised as an Amphibian? Yup. But unlike you when I first transformed it was..." 

Anne could see Marcy seeming to breakdown, Whatever happened to the princess must have really traumatized her 

Marcy (Rubs her eyes): "Sorry, Sorry! It's not an easy thing to talk about for me." 

Anne: "Yeah I can get that." 

All of a sudden the door opens and Marcy 10 peeks her head out 

Marcy 10: "Hey guys! I think we have a plan to rescue the Plantars!" 

Anne: "YAY!" 

Marcy: "Wait! Anne's family got captured!?" 

Anne: "Yeah it's kind of a long story." 

Everybody is now gathered around the campfire discussing their plan to rescue the plantars 

Tasha: "Alright mate, here's the plan."

Tasha: "Oi Omnitrix bearer! You know how to access the Omnitrixs projection feature?" 

Marcy 10: "Uh...No." 

Tasha grabs Marcy 10s arm and turns the Omnitrixs dial until it creates an holographic projection of toad tower 

Marcy 10: "Whoah." 

Tasha: "Here's the plan, Myself and Oxalia will remain outside the tower in case anything goes wrong, the two Marcy's will take out the guards surrounding the dungeons, that is if you two can even be stealthy that is!" 

Marcy: "Well my counterpart can turn into monsters that go invisible and I can climb on walls!" 

Tasha: "Good enough for me." 

Tasha: "Ok now Alvin will establish a surveillance hub within the toad tower which we can use to find which cell the plantars are in, And Anne...I think you should have the honor to free your family." 

Anne: "I would love that." 

Marcy 10: "But hold on a second! What happens if we encounter The Enforcer or Sasha?" 

Tasha: "You can all handle one simple Toad but The Enforcer...Just distract her and run as soon as you get the chance." 

Anne, and the two Marcy's gulp at the thought of encountering the Enforcer again 

Tasha: "Alright are we all in agreement on this plan?" 

Everyone nods in agreement although everybody seems a little nervous in part because of the danger they are putting themselves in 

Oxalia: "It's not a perfect plan but...It's the best one we have." 

Marcy 10 (Walks over and kisses Oxalia): "I agree." 

Alvin: "OK HOLD UP!" 

Alvin: "OXY! DID YOU JUST KISS THE BEARER OF THE OMNITRIX!?" 

Oxalia: "Yes I did! Marcy and I are dating." 

Tasha (Laughs): "HA! GOOD ON YOU OX! I KNEW YOU COULD ASK HER OUT! AND LOOK AT THAT! YOUR NOW DATING THE MOST POWERFUL BEING IN THE UNIVERSE!" 

Oxalia (Blushes): "Hehe thanks guys." 

Oxalia and Tasha are now hiding behind a small hill where they are able to observe the tower.

Tasha (Activating her coms): "Alvin are you in position?" 

Alvin: "I am, I've hidden myself in the sewers. I'm really glad that I use Mechamorph surveillance. They set themselves up so that I can just sit back and do absolutely nothing." 

Alvin: "Well not nothing! I meant that I don't have to..." 

Tasha: "We know. What about the rest of you? Are you in position?" 

Ghostfreak: "We are, But what about Anne?" 

Tasha: "Keep hold of her, Your Ectonurite form should be able to keep her hidden for now." 

Ghostfreak (Shrugs): "Not sure that it works that way but yeah sure whatever." 

Ghostfreak (Whispers to Anne): "Pssst Anne." 

Anne: "Yeah?" 

Ghostfreak (Hands Anne a berry): "In case things go wrong eat this." 

Anne (Whispers): "A berry? How is a berry going to help us?" 

Marcy (Whispers): "The berry removes the effects of our medicine making us human again!" 

Ghostfreak: "Do you want one Marcy?" 

Marcy: "No. Because unlike you two I struggle to move without a tail." 

Ghostfreak: "I get it, It would put you and us at a tactical disadvantage." 

Alvin: "Guys! I found them!" 

Ghostfreak: "Where are they?" 

Alvin: "They are in the basement dungeon! Although I am picking up two other bio-signs in the area."

Ghostfreak: "The Enforcer." 

Anne: "And that toad."

The three of them nod and begin to make their way down to the dungeons. When they arrive they find one Toad guard and one Newt guard standing guard at the door 

Night: "Hey Snoot?" 

Snoot: "Yeah?" 

Night: "When you write a story do you ever struggle to figure out what a character should say in one scene?" 

Snoot: "Yeah all the time! Why do you ask?" 

Night: "Well I'm trying to write a scene and I'm struggling to figure out how I should write this scene of these two guards talking to each other but I'm just really unsure what they should be talking about?" 

Snoot: "It sounds like a really minor scene and kind of unnecessary to be honest, Why don't you just cut it?" 

Night: "Well if I do cut it then I feel like I'm rushing through the story way too fast! And the next scene is going to be really emotionally intense so I want to give the reader time to breathe!" 

Snoot: "Yeah I feel ya." 

Ghostfreak (Hides Anne near a corner while whispering): "Wait here, This will be quick."  

Ghostfreak flies high in the air while intangible and Marcy climbs on the ceiling, The two of them attack the two guards with Marcy firing an arrow at the two laced with a poison to knockout one and Ghostfreak temporarily possess the other guard making her hit themself for a short time until they fall unconscious. Ghostfreak proceeds to grab the keys and hands them to Anne. 

Ghostfreak: "Once you get down there and free the plantars then get out of there as soon as you can." 

Anne: "Got it!" 

Ghostfreak: "Oh and Anne! One more thing!" 

Anne (In the middle of opening the door to the dungeons): "Yeah what?" 

Ghostfreak (Throws Anne a Sword): "You may need this!" 

Anne (Catches the sword and with it looks at her reflection for a moment): "Thanks." 

Ghostfreak: "Good luck Anne!" 

Marcy: "We believe in you!" 

After those words of encouragement she tears up a little before unlocking the door and jumps down to the dungeons 

The Enforcer and Sasha stare down the chained Plantars, Sasha felt a little guilty the beast was just a kid not to mention they are the same species for frogs sake! It wasn't right! not to mention capturing a frog family who clearly saw the beast like family. The Enforcer did not feel the same pity but anger instead, How dare this family lie to her counterpart for years and the absolute nerve to force her to use that awful medicine she had heard her counterpart was drinking. But still a small part of her wondered what that might be like? To be in the body of a creature that isn't you, She shook her head to get that thought out of her head she had more pressing matters to be concerned about. 

Sasha (frustrated): "THIS IS GETTING US NOWHERE! IT'S OBVIOUS THEY DON'T KNOW ANYTHING!" 

The Enforcer: "Patience Sasha." 

Sasha: "I have been! But these stupid farmers aren't worth our time!" 

The Enforcer: "I didn't capture them for information." 

Sasha: "Then why did you capture them?" 

The Enforcer (Catches a frog's tongue): "Hook, Line and Sinker." 

The Enforcer pulls a blue frog inside the dungeon with them 

Sasha: "They were bait!?" 

The Enforcer: "Indeed." 

Grabs Anne by the throat and restrains her against the wall 

The Enforcer: "I will ask this question once and only once." 

The Enforcer: "WHERE IS THE SHAPESHIFTER!?" 

Anne: "Right here!" 

Anne kicks The Enforcer in the face staggering her for a moment allowing Anne to eat the berry. As soon as she gulps it down she feels that familiar heat as she feels her bones and muscles twist and turn and that awful gagging sensation as her tongue shrinks and her teeth grow in. When Anne gets up She finds The Enforcer was not phased by Anne's transformation. 

The Enforcer: "Charming." 

The Enforcer: "But acting like a mindless beast will not fool me." 

The Enforcer grabs Anne and tosses her out of the cage with Anne getting up and pulls out her sword in self defense 

The Enforcer: "Unlike your family I am willing to tell my secrets." 

Anne: "What are you-" 

The Enforcer removes her helmet to reveal that she's...ALSO ANNE!? Although this other Anne looked a little older and a huge scar was on her left eye with said eye glowing blue

Anne: "Your...ME!?" 

The Enforcer: "I am. And since you're me...I'm going to show you the kind of hell I have been through." 

The Enforcer puts her helmet back on and she is surrounded by a blue energy and charges at Anne with inhuman speeds, Anne just barely gets out of the way with Anne jumping up and slashing her sword at The Enforcer with The Enforcer grabbing the blade with her bare hands 

The Enforcer: "You fight like a frog. Unskilled , Undisciplined and relying on agility which is something your human form now lacks." 

The Enforcer with her blue energy tosses Anne to the other side of the room and pins Anne to the wall with her sword 

The Enforcer: "If you think you're going to beat me then you are going to have to try a lot harder than that." 

The Enforcer senses someone is about to attack her and she grabs a sword blade from behind her and turns to find Sasha now in her human form staring her down 

The Enforcer: "So now you betray me?" 

Sasha: "Were all humans here! We shouldn't be trying to kill each other." 

The Enforcer: "She sides with the shapeshifter! She is too dangerous." 

Sasha: "What proof do you have that she's even dangerous!? Heck I think you are much more of a threat than the shapeshifter! She was tossed around like a ragdoll for frogs sake!" 

The Enforcer: "If you knew what I knew! You wouldn't be saying that!" 

During the commotion the Plantars were able to slip out unseen and were able to find Ghostfreak and Marcy 

Ghostfreak: "Are you guys ok!?" 

Hop-pop: "We're fine." 

Sprig: "But what about Anne!?" 

Marcy: "Annes going to be fine, Because she has an awesome little frog family in you guys!" 

Hop-pop: "Thank you kindly stranger." 

Ghostfreak (Activates her communicator): "Alvin it's me. The plantars have been busted out. Is the evac point clear?" 

Alvin: "Yup the top of the tower is clear." 

Ghostfreak: "Copy that." 

Ghostfreak grabs the plantars and they all begin flying towards the top of the tower. The Enforcer can sense that the Plantars have escaped and sensing that the shapeshifter and the princess have taken them 

The Enforcer: "Damnit." 

The Enforcer begins to glow blue and flies towards the top of the tower 

Sasha (Holds out her hand): "Need a hand?" 

Anne (Grabs her hand with Sasha helping her out): "Why are you helping me?" 

Sasha: "We humans shouldn't be fighting each other, we should be finding a way back home." 

Anne: "So...You're going to help us?" 

Sasha: "I'm helping us and our people, not the frogs that you call family." 

Anne: "Fine...But because you obviously don’t care about my family we're not friends." 

Sasha: "Fine by me." 

The two start running upstairs to find the plantars and the shapeshifter 

The Plantars and the two Marcy's are running upstairs and have entered the top of the tower 

Polly: "Ugh finally we can get out of here!" 

Marcy: "Hold on! Something doesn't feel right." 

Sprig: "The heck does that mean!?" 

Marcy: "The Enforcer doesn't seem like the kind of person to just let somebody escape." 

The Enforcer (Appearing behind Marcy): "And right you are." 

The Enforcer appears behind Marcy and grabs her with The Enforcer levitating above them holding Marcy by her tail 

The Enforcer: "Surrender to me shapeshifter or this Newt dies." 

Marcy (struggles): "LET ME GO!" 

Ghostfreak: "OK! FINE JUST LET HER GO!" 

Ghostfreak levitates towards The Enforcer but Ghostfreak slams the Omnitrix on her chest 

Ghostfreak: "SIKE!" 

A bright green light shortly blinds The Enforcer causing her to drop Marcy back to the floor and Echo Echo emerges from the light 

Echo Echo: "ECHO ECHO!" 

Echo Echo duplicates herself and uses her sonic screams to stun The Enforcer 

The Enforcer (Covers her ears): "GAH WHAT IS THAT SOUND!?" 

Echo Echo: "That sound is the noise of your butt being kicked."  

The Enforcer glows blue and charges towards Echo Echo and her clones with most of the clones being destroyed and Echo Echo being held in a chokehold by The Enforcer 

The Enforcer: "You will not win here." 

Echo Echo (Notices Anne and Sasha behind The Enforcer): "Not alone...But together!" 

The Enforcer: "Huh?" 

Anne and Sasha charge towards The Enforcer but The Enforcer uses her blue powers to send them away with a powerful shockwave but the Plantars catch Anne and Marcy catches Sasha 

Marcy: "Are you guys alright!?" 

Sasha: "I'm fine, I totally didn't get thrown around by an alien psycho!" 

Anne: "HEY! COOL IT!" 

The Enforcer charges towards the two humans with both Anne and Sasha blocking The Enforcers blow with their swords blades. The Enforcer fires a blast of blue energy at Anne and Sasha sending them backwards, Echo Echo jumps up and duplicates herself pinning The Enforcer down with her duplicates and Echo Echo jumps on The Enforcers chest and screams at The Enforcer causing a small crater to form beneath The Enforcer but the Enforcer with a powerful burst of blue energy sends everyone flying backwards 

The Enforcer: "ENOUGH!!!"  

The Enforcer with her blue powers and drags Hop-pop into a chokehold before The Enforcer levitates above the tower 

The Enforcer: "I will give you this one chance, Either you all surrender...Or he dies." 

Sprig: "HOP-POP!" 

Polly: "No!" 

Anne (Crying): "PLEASE DON'T!" 

Echo Echo: "Let him go! What makes you think I will want to give up!?" 

The Enforcer: "Because even you know that deep down...You are the monster in this story and I am the hero." 

Echo Echo (Furious): "YOU THINK THAT YOUR THE HERO HERE!? I'M NOT THE ONE THREATENING AN INNOCENT FROG FARMER OVER HERE!" 

The Enforcer: "Being a hero is all about doing what no else has the guts to do." 

Echo Echo: "IF THERE IS ONE THING THAT THIS WORLD HAS TAUGHT ME! IT'S THAT BEING A HERO IS ABOUT HELPING PEOPLE!" 

The Enforcer: "Helping people means you have to trust them! And I do not trust anybody!" 

Echo Echo: "Well I trust people and if some socially awkward loser like me can figure that out then frankly SO CAN YOU!" 

The Enforcer: "That's the thing about trust isn't it? The more you believe them the more it hurts when they betray you." 

The Enforcer lets go of Hop-pop allowing him to plummet to his demise. Causing the Plantar kids to stand there stunned , horrified and with tears streaming down their faces. The Enforcer flies high into the skies feeling her power begin to grow. With The Enforcer now high above them and being out of sight Echo Echo reverts back to human. She collapses to her knees. feeling tears streaming down her face. Sure he wasn't her Hop-pop but he was still Hop-pop. Hop-pop gave Marcy 10 something she felt she never had before...The feeling of being loved and accepted and now The Enforcer THAT MONSTER! Just made 3 orphans, How dare she for doing how dare she for calling her a threat! All of a sudden as the skies seem to turn into that horrible blue colour that The Enforcer seemed to control. The Omnitrix begins to blink and bloop as it seemed to be doing something Marcy had never seen before 

Omnitrix: "Warning humanoid with planet buster abilities detected in range. Cycling through active playlists." 

Omnitrix (Beeps): "Error! No viable transformation in active playlists filtering for viable locked transformation." 

Omnitrix: "Filtering please stand by." 

Omnitrix: "Filtering complete, Viable transformation found...Prypatosian-A now available." 

Marcy 10 wipes her eyes and looks down at the Omnitrix; it displays a large humanoid that looks mechanical in nature with a face resembling a gas mask. Marcy 10 knew that this new transformation was likely very powerful she looked up at everybody with everyone giving her a worried look 

Marcy 10 (Steps back): "Anne...Keep them safe from me ok?" 

Anne nods and steps back herself, Marcy 10 slams the Omnitrix and transforms into a new alien 

Atomix: "ATOMIX!!!" 

Atomix jumps up and flies high in the sky but the shockwave produced causes the tower to become unstable and fall apart, Oxalia jumps up at the top of the tower 

Oxalia: "Ok everybody off, NOW!" 

Oxalia grabs everybody but hesitates when she doesn't see Hop-pop 

Oxalia: "Wait! Where is Hopediah?"  

Marcy (Sombrely): "He's gone." 

Oxalia (Horrified): "No." 

Tasha (Through Oxalia's communicator): "Quit the pity party he's alive I got em." 

Tasha (Looks up at the sky as a green blur is rapidly ascending higher and higher): "But you guys need to get out of here! Because all hell's gonna break lose in a few seconds."  

Atomix flies high in the sky normally with any opponent she thinks of some kind of plan but here? There is no plan she's just going to hit The Enforcer really, REALLY HARD! The Enforcer looks down and notices a green blur below her and was quickly approaching her until the shapeshifter was right in front of her, Atomix punches The Enforcer knocking her back miles away but Atomix appears in front of her 

Atomix (Furious): "YOU THOUGHT I WAS A THREAT!" 

Atomix (Uppercuts The Enforcer): "I WAS NEVER A THREAT YOU'RE THE ONLY THREAT HERE!" 

Atomix (Kicks The Enforcer in the chest): "BUT NOW I AM A THREAT! TO YOU!!!" 

Atomix (Uses nuclear energy to create a thunder clap sending The Enforcer back): "So you can take me if you want! But I ain't going down easy!" 

The Enforcer (Grabs Atomix's fist): "You're too dangerous now to be taken alive so there is only one way this ends...Either you die or I DO!" 

The Enforcer punches Atomix sending her flying back but Atomix shakes it off and punches The Enforcer sending her flying down to the forest with Atomix grabbing The Enforcers head and dragging it through the dirt causing trees to be uprooted and fly high in the sky, The Enforcer manages to create a shockwave sending Atomix all the way to Wartwood causing a few buildings to be damaged and  causing some of the locals to fearfully emerge from their homes 

Atomix: "RUN! GET OUT OF HERE! IT'S NOT SAFE!" 

The Enforcer kicks Atomix in back of the head sending her flying towards the Plantar household destroying it

Atomix (Looking down at the Plantar ruins): "NOOOO!!!!" 

The Enforcer: "Oh please! They are merely pathetic farmers. Who cares what happens to them?" 

Atomix (Furious): "I CARE!!!" 

Atomix (Lunges at The Enforcer): "RAAAHHH!!!!!!" 

Atomix proceeds to uppercut The Enforcer sending her flying high in the sky once more with Atomix throwing a punch so powerful it sends The Enforcer all the way to Newtopia with The Enforcer colliding with the castle making a massive hole in it she emerges from the castle to find Atomix hovering over her menacingly, The Enforcer growls and lunges at Atomix punching her towards the upper atmosphere but Atomix manages to grab a lunging Enforcer and throws her out of the atmosphere with the two beings now staring each other down 

Atomix: "We have to stop this! You can surrender, we can stop this." 

The Enforcer: "I gave you your chance, And you refused. I will not stop until I stop you." 

Atomix (Charging up an energy blast): "As you wish." 

Atomix fire an energy blast at The Enforcer sending her flying back to an asteroid belt destroying many of them but The Enforcer charges again but Atomix blocks her punch and hits her all the way to a barren planet with Atomix charging up a powerful blast of energy and fires it completely destroying the planet with a massive explosion horrifying Atomix as while she knew how to use her abilities she didn't know how powerful they were exactly but this!? This was simply too much 

Atomix (Looks down at her hands): "Holy Frog, Did...I do that?" 

The Enforcer emerges from the destroyed planet seeming to be mostly unharmed but a noticeable hole appeared on her helmet with an imposing blue eye staring directly at her 

The Enforcer (Furious): "YES YOU DID!!!" 

The Enforcer charges at Atomix but Atomix grabs her punch and she drags the Enforcer across a sea of asteroids Atomix holds The Enforcers arm over Amphibia as Atomix glares at The Enforcer 

Atomix: "You know I think I'm going to end this with a bang." 

Atomix throws The Enforcer down to the planet below as she begins to charge up a powerful blast of energy 

Atomix: "THIS LAST ONE GOES OUT TO MY BEST FRIEND IN THIS WORLD AND ANY OTHER! ANNE BOONCHUY!"  

The Enforcer (Shocked): "WAIT! What did you just say!?" 

Atomix (Charging a blast of atomic energy): "HAA-MEE-NA HAA-MEE-NA HAA-MEE-NA-HA! NUCLEAR WINTER!!!" 

Atomix fires a blast of pure energy at The Enforcer with the energy ball being seen from the entire planet when the energy ball lands it creates a huge explosion that makes the Tsar bomb look like a birthday candle by comparison. The Enforcer lies there beaten 

The Enforcer: "Marcy...Sasha, I'm sorry I couldn't save you." 

The Enforcer falls unconscious believing she had failed her mission and her friends 

Atomix lands, panting all that fighting had really tired her out but it was needed she had to save her friends and her girlfriend. Atomix looks around and realizes she is standing in a huge crater; it was bigger than the landmass of both Germany and France combined. 

Atomix (Shocked): "Did I do that?" 

Oxalia ,Tasha and Alvin run down to Atomix with Atomix and Oxalia embracing 

Atomix: "I'm glad you're all ok!" 

Oxalia: "So am I!" 

Atomix (Somber): "Ox...Hop-pop he...Didn't-" 

Tasha: "Make it? No he's fine complaining about his back but I think that's normal for him." 

Alvin: "Can we talk about how...YOU NEARLY DESTROYED THIS ENTIRE PLANET!" 

Atomix: "I already destroyed one when I was fighting The Enforcer but that was because the planet already looked structurally unstable anyway." 

Alvin: "Do you even know what species you turned into!?" 

Atomix: "The Omnitrix called it a Prypatosian-A and that they are really powerful! But aside from that I don't know much." 

Alvin (Sighs): "Prypatosian-As come from the planet Prypatos in the Andromeda galaxy, They are one of the most powerful species in the universe and they became known as..." 

Atomix: "Known as what Alvin!?" 

Alvin: "As a living apocalypse. If a Prypatosian-A isn't careful they could ignite the planet's atmosphere or destroy the planet's core or hell if they're powerful enough they could destroy an entire star system." 

Atomix (Horrified): "I could...Do that!?" 

Alvin: "You could've." 

Atomix: "Oh frog when I fired that blast I could've...Oh no no NOOO!"

Oxalia (Comforts Atomix): "Easy! You didn't know the damage that could be caused." 

Atomix: "Ok somebody's gotta say it." 

Atomix (Points at The Enforcer): "But I can't be the only one who wants to know who's underneath that helmet!?" 

Oxalia: "I concur." 

Tasha: "Look mate before you take off her helmet I just need you to know, You might not like who you see." 

Oxalia: "Tasha, What do you mean?" 

Atomix reaches down and slowly removes The Enforcers helmet as soon as she removes The Enforcers helmet she collapses to her knees she couldn't believe it! The Enforcer is Anne but not some alternate Anne, HER ANNE! Atomix grabs The Enforcer and begins to cradle her in a desperate attempt to awaken The Enforcer 

Atomix: "NO! NO! NO! COME ON ANNE! PLEASE WAKE UP!" 

Oxalia: "Did...You know the time? That the Enforcer was really-" 

Tasha: "I did, I know I should've told you mate but I didn't want your girlfriend to see her best friend like that, Heartless and cruel! It wouldn't be right but I should have said something to you." 

Oxalia: "It's irrelevant now." 

Alvin (Grabs a syringe from his pocket): "This should help." 

Atomix: "What is that?" 

Alvin: "A cellular stimulant, It's designed to inject nanobots into the bloodstream rapidly healing damaged tissue." 

Atomix: "Any side effects?" 

Alvin: "She may hallucinate this stimulant was designed for Galvan not Humans." 

Atomix (Sighs): "Do it." 

Alvin removes the right shoulder pad and injects The Enforcer with the stim causing her body to start shaking slightly 

Atomix (Grabs and slowly rubs The Enforcer's hand): "Anne...I don't know if you can hear me but you have never let me down before." 

Atomix (Winces): "Don't let this one be the time where you do." 

9 years ago, A 7 year old Anne was walking down to the Wu household. She had never been a fan of that house; there was always something off about that house that she didn't like. Although excitement clouded her fear of the house because in just a few days it will be Anne's birthday! They throw a party the week before Anne's birthday for family and friends but Marcy would get pretty overwhelmed by the whole thing, Although she tried her best to hide it but she wasn't exactly good at hiding it. So for Marcy's sake they would arrange a little get together on Anne's birthday after all Marcy was Anne's first and best friend. Anne knocks on the door of Wu household; she waits a few moments before she grows impatient and knocks again but no one answers. Anne gets impatient and simply opens the door she is surprised to realize the door was already open 

Anne: "HELLO!? Mr and Mrs Wu! Where are you!?" 

Anne could hear a sobbing sound coming from the kitchen, Anne recognised the sobbing immediately it was Marcy but what was going on. When Anne entered the kitchen she found Marcy laying down in the fetal position sobbing. Anne runs over to her friend putting her hand on Marcy's shoulder in a comforting manner causing Marcy to raise her head to look at Anne 

Marcy 10: "Anne what are you doing here!?" 

Anne: "I was just going to ask you if you could come over to my house on my birthday." 

Anne: "But that's not important right now! Why are you on the floor crying like that and where is your mom and dad!?" 

Marcy 10: "I don't know! Normally they tell me that they are leaving but they...J..J...Just didn't tell me!" 

Anne: "What about Mr Eiding!? Doesn't he look after you when your parents aren't around!?" 

Marcy 10: "He's visiting his grandkids in New York!" 

Anne: "Well I guess you're coming with me then!" 

Marcy 10: "I don't understand you should just leave me here! I'm just a burden." 

Anne: "Dude you're not a burden and you have never disappointed me not now and not ever." 

Marcy 10: "Really?" 

Anne: " Yup! Now come on! Why don't we talk to my parents! They'll know what to do!" 

Marcy 10 (Wipes her eyes): "Thanks Anne." 

Anne: "Your welcome Marcy."  

The Enforcer awakens seeing Tasha , Alvin , Oxalia and Atomix staring at her with a worried expression on their faces 

The Enforcer: "What happened?" 

Alvin: "In short the Prypatosian-A over here just kicked the living shit out of you." 

Atomix: "HEY! Language!" 

The Enforcer: "I thought you two abandoned me?" 

Tasha: "We walked out, We didn't abandon you." 

Atomix: "You have no idea how good it is to see you ok." 

The Enforcer: "Why should you care? You are a monster! A dangerous shapeshifter who nearly killed me!?" 

Atomix: "Your right Anna Banana...I nearly killed you and I'm so sorry for that." 

The Enforcer: "I'm sorry...What did you just call me?" 

Atomix: "I called you Anna Banana, I gave you that nickname when I was 4 years old. And I am your best friend." 

The Enforcer looks at Atomix for a moment before Atomixs words began to set it. Anne couldn't believe it was she...No it couldn't be true, Could it? 

The Enforcer (Shocked): "Marcy...If that's you in there then..." 

The Enforcer (Crying): "THEN PROVE IT!" 

Atomix winces as she slams the Omnitrix on her waist and with a green flash Atomix transforms back into Marcy 10 

The Enforcer (Hugs Marcy 10 while crying): "Oh Marcy! I'm so sorry, I tried to...Oh god...Oh god I could've-" 

Marcy 10: "It's alright I nearly killed you too soooooo...I'm not exactly free of blame here either." 

The Enforcer (Turns to look at Tasha and Alvin): "Alvin, Tasha, I'm so sorry I treated you and the rest of the team as my subordinates and not my teammates and that wasn't right, I'm so sorry." 

Tasha: "Look mate we forgive you because you are one of our best friends, But our trust? It's our trust you have to earn back." 

The Enforcer (Collapses to the floor and cry's): "I know...I know." 

Marcy 10 hugs The Enforcer as the two comfort each other over a long and rather traumatic day 

Tasha helps finish the portal frame with Alvin connecting it to a power supply 

Tasha: "And there! Done!" 

Oxalia: "Thanks Tasha." 

Tasha: "Don't thank me! Thank your girlfriend! She was the one who got most of the work done." 

Alvin: "Speaking of your girlfriend, where is she?" 

Oxalia: "She said she needed to be alone." 

Marcy: "Why don't I go check on her!?" 

Oxalia: "Why don't I go with you? You wouldn't mind that would you?" 

Marcy: "Not at all!" 

The Enforcer: "Could you tell my Marcy that-" 

Oxalia: "That you're sorry about what happened and it won't happen again? We know you apologized to her for hours." 

The Enforcer (Embarrassed): "Yeah that." 

Oxalia: "We will." 

Oxalia and Marcy begin to search for Marcy 10 until Marcy puts a hand on Oxalia's shoulder 

Marcy: "Hey uh!" 

Oxalia: "Oxalia it's Oxalia." 

Marcy (Holds out the berry): "I think my counterpart would like to see a friendly face." 

Oxalia: "Sure but why don't we get more comfortable shall we?" 

Oxalia and Marcy sit next to a tree as Marcy eats the berry. Marcy feels as her bones twist and turn her spine shifting and her body temperature increasing. When Marcy opens her eyes and finds that Oxalia is now more in focus. 

Oxalia: "You are perhaps the most adorable thing in the universe, you know that?" 

Marcy: "Maybe you should tell that to your Marcy that."  

Oxalia: "True." 

Oxalia and Marcy move a leaf the two see Marcy 10 looking down at the Omnitrix displaying a hologram of Atomix

Oxalia: "I think you two should have some time to yourselves." 

Marcy: "Thanks Oxalia." 

Oxalia: "Your welcome." 

Oxalia leaves the two Marcy's. Marcy walks out of the forest but she trips immediately 

Marcy: "OOOF!  

Marcy 10: "ARE YOU OK!?" 

Marcy: "I'm fine! I'm just not good at walking without my tail." 

Marcy 10 helps Marcy back to her feet and the two sit down on a rock 

Marcy: "Well you can go back to your own world now, Your monster friends just finished building the portal." 

Marcy 10: "Yeah I had a feeling it was going to be finished soon." 

Marcy: "So...Uh cool new monster." 

Marcy 10 (Sombrely): "Oh! Uh...thanks." 

Marcy: "I'm sorry I..." 

Marcy 10: "It's ok! I'm just as bad at reading people as you are." 

Marcy 10: "I'm scared dude." 

Marcy: "Of what?" 

Marcy 10: "My new monster she's...My most powerful monster ever." 

Marcy: "That sounds awesome!" 

Marcy 10 (Sombrely): "On paper." 

Marcy 10: "But If I wasn't careful I could've destroyed...Everything."  

Marcy: "I get it when I first transformed I was terrified, I didn't know what I could do but thanks to you I know I don't have to be afraid any more." 

Marcy: "And maybe you don't have to be afraid of your new monster because you have friends who are here to help you." 

Marcy 10: "But I caused a lot of damage because both Toad tower and The Plantar home were destroyed." 

Marcy: "Well both the Plantars home and Toad tower will be rebuilt, Anne and her family along with the toad lieutenant will be living in a hotel in Newtopia until their homes are rebuilt." 

Marcy 10: "So what are you going to do now?" 

Marcy: "Well everyone is in agreement to find a way to Earth, That portal you guys made will likely be destroyed when you all return to your world so we will have to start from scratch." 

Marcy: "What about you? What are you going to do when you get back to your world?" 

Marcy 10: "Well Alvin reckons we will be returned to our previous positions so, We are going to meet them at our Newtopia and find a way back to our Earth."  

Marcy: "Well the portal is finished and Your friends are waiting for you." 

Marcy 10: "You know if you don't mind I'd like to sit here a little while longer?" 

Marcy: "Could I join you?" 

Marcy 10: "Sure." 

The Marcy's smile as they look up at the night sky as a shooting star passes by the full moon

Chapter Text

Sasha runs through the forest her mind-racing moments of Toad tower flashing in her head , She still couldn't believe that loveable little Mar-Mar had the nerve to tell her that SHE! Was a horrible person! Sasha jumps up and slashes some training dummies with her sword which she does with increasing fury 

Charmcaster: "How long has she been doing that?"

Mad Ben (Sitting on a chair and eating popcorn): "Since this morning." 

Charmcaster: "I guess the tower really affected her." 

Mad Ben: "Yeah mate I'm pretty convinced this isn't healthy." 

Charmcaster: "Shouldn't we help her?" 

Mad Ben: "We aren't...But he will." 

Charmcaster: "Ben, We don't know if he will become active and he's never bonded with an organic being before."

Mad Ben: " Oh he'll activate alright ! I just...Don't know when?" 

Charmcaster: " Ben there's a chance..." 

Mad Ben: "Don't say it."

Charmcaster: "He sacrificed himself to save us, Ben! I think he would like to rest in peace." 

Mad Ben: "I'm not giving up hope on Mal just yet." 

Charmcaster: "I know you won't, I'm just saying it's not realistic ." 

Mad Ben: "Says the girl who can do magic." 

Charmcaster: "Says the guy who can turn himself into different monsters." 

As Sasha continues to slash her sword at one of the training dummies she notices something from the corner of her eye, But it slinked back into the forest before Sasha can get a good look at it. Sasha simply rubs her eyes and turns to notice that the cabin door has swung open and Grime emerges from it  

Grime (Stretches): "Good morning maggots ." 

Grime (Looks over at Sasha): "Is she still training?" 

Mad Ben: "Yup." 

Grime (Coughs to get Sasha's attention): " Well my comrades I have received a letter from high command!" 

Sasha: "Wait really ?"

Grime (Excitedly): "YES! It's been years since I've last received a mission from high command! I'm so amped!" 

Grime (Coughs): "Sorry, I try and keep my composure it's just been a while." 

Grime excitedly opens the letter and reads it, But his face slowly transitions into a frown as he reads it  

Grime: "Oh...Well, this isn't good." 

Charmcaster: "What is it?" 

Grime: "High command thinks that I, I mean we abandoned our post, and until we can prove ourselves we are banished from the Toad separatist movement."

Sasha: "OH COME ON!" 

Mad Ben: "Is there any way we could convince them to pardon us?" 

Grime: "There is..." 

Sasha: "And that is?" 

Grime: "Barrels war hammer." 

Charmcaster: " Leme guess an ancient magical artifact with immense power?" 

Grime: "Yes actually how did you-" 

Charmcaster: "Know? Where I'm from that kind of stuff is everywhere." 

Grime: "Wait where's Percy and Braddock?" 

Sasha: " Beats me." 

Perky and Braddock emerge from the forest in a panicked state  

Sasha: "Percy, Braddock is everything alright!?" 

Braddock: "We got attacked!" 

Percy: "BY A BIG FREAKIN MONSTER!!!" 

Percy breathes in and out rapidly as Braddock comforts him  

Sasha (Turns to Mad Ben): "Did you have anything to do with that?" 

Mad Ben: "Sorry mate, Wasn't me." 

Percy: "It wasn't that Ben guy! I think it was a narwhal worm!" 

Mad Ben: "A narwhal worm? And now...I think I've officially seen everything!" 

Grime: "Narwhal worms are nearly extinct and if the legends are true..."  

Grime: " Well everybody! I think we're going on a worm hunt." 

As everyone wanders the forest in search of the worm. Sasha can't help but feel like she is being watched and aside from the occasional sighting, The mysterious figure rarely shows up but when it does Sasha always feels like it's getting closer. Charmcaster notices Sasha's erratic behaviour and whispers to Mad Ben  

Charmcaster: "Is Sasha ok?" 

Mad Ben: "I reckon she is." 

Charmcaster: "She's been acting pretty erratic all day?"  

Mad Ben: " Yeah so?" 

Charmcaster: "Don't you think that he's-" 

Mad Ben: "I hope so..." 

Sasha somewhat overhears the conversation. Sasha began to wonder what Mad Ben and Charmcaster were talking about but it was best to not say anything , Who knows how they could react? As they walked Sasha pushed past some bushes and she saw what looked to be a giant hammer buried in the dirt  

Sasha: "YO GRIMESY! IS THIS IT?"  

Grime (Peaks from the bushes): "HAHA! IT IS!" 

Grime begins to run over towards the hammer with Mad Ben and Charmcaster running behind him. Sasha notices that Percy and Braddock are cowering behind a tree. Sasha moves the bushes startling Percy and Braddock

Percy: "GAH!" 

Braddock: "Please don't do that!" 

Sasha: "What the heck is up with you guys?" 

Braddock: " Sorry it's just...We're a little shaken up from the whole worm thing is all." 

Percy: "Please don't make us go find the worm!" 

Sasha (Sighs): "Look just...If you get too scared just give me a signal. And we will leave the moment you do that." 

Percy: "What's the signal?"  

Sasha strikes a cutesy pose  

Sasha: "Can you do that?" 

Percy (Braddock simply nods): "Yeah! We can do that!" 

Sasha helps Percy and Braddock to their feet and the two walk toward the hammer 

Everyone tries to pick up the hammer but for some reason, it doesn't budge 

Humungosaur (Gives up and kicks the hammer): "DANGIT! This hammer's cheating." 

Charmcaster: "Could be a hex of some kind but it's not like one I've ever seen." 

Grime: "We've all tried to move this stupid thing yet nothing!" 

Sasha: "I haven't moved it."

Humungosaur: "No offense mate , Your just a normal human! What luck would you have?" 

Sasha (Angrily gestures to Charmcaster and Humungosaur): "So are you!" 

Charmcaster (Creates an orb of pink magic in her hand): "Magical being from another realm." 

Humungosaur (gestures to the Omnitrix on his chest): "Alien space watch." 

Sasha (Angrily): "So!?" 

Sasha walks towards the hammer, The hammer itself looks old but nothing about it suggests any real decay, Sasha grabs the hammer and at first, struggles to lift it but after exerting all her strength she can lift the hammer off the ground with a kind of pink energy seeming to emanate from the hammer  

Grime: "Oh dang." 

Humungosaur (Whispers to Charmcaster): "Hey babe? Maybe we should piss her off more?" 

Charmcaster (Kisses Humungosaur on the cheek): "Definitely." 

Sasha looks at the hammer, She realizes that it doesn't feel heavy anymore in fact it feels as light as paper much to her surprise she could move it as if it were a toy 

Grime: "HAHA! Now with this weapon! The other Toad separatists should surely see that we are not traitors!" 

As Sasha looks at the hammer she notices that it is disintegrating in her hand and the hammer much to everyone's horror turns into dust  

Grime: "NO!" 

Humungosaur: " Well that can't be good."  

Sasha blinked for a moment and now that red monster she had been seeing all day from a distance was right in front of her. Its body was mostly black with red stripes and one circular technological-looking eye 

??? (Grabbing Sasha's wrist): "You are mine now." 

And with that Sasha's vision fades to black as she is now unconscious 

When Sasha awakens she finds that mysterious monster standing before her Sasha gets up ready to fight it but stops when she notices her surroundings, A white void nothing surrounds them just an empty blank plane 

Sasha: "What the hell is this place?" 

???: "Surely you recognize your own mind mammal?" 

Sasha: "OK and who are you supposed to be?" 

Malware: "My name is Malware, I am a Galvanic Mechamorph from the moon of Galvan B." 

Sasha (Rubs her brow): "I am getting so tired of aliens right now." 

Malware: " Technically we are both aliens to this world." 

Sasha: "Dude, not the point!" 

Sasha: "You mind telling me why we are even here right now!?" 

Malware: "Indeed but first! Do you mind telling me your name human ?" 

Sasha (Angrily): "My name is Sasha." 

Malware: " Good, At least you can follow orders." 

Sasha: "Hey! I'm no brown noser!" 

Malware: "Now to business, Do you remember Toad Tower?" 

Sasha: "Yeah but that's none of your business." 

Malware: "You mean when Marcy stood up to you and you nearly died?" 

Sasha (A little scarred): "How did you-" 

Malware: "Know? Well, I'm connected to your nervous system meaning I know every thought you think before you think it, And every action you make before you make it." 

Sasha: "So you can read my mind and crap?" 

Malware: "Exactly and you and I...Are alike in some ways." 

Sasha: "How the hell are we alike!?" 

Malware makes a gesture with his right hand and their surroundings change. Sasha notices that the interior of the building they were in vaguely resembled Malware himself but the red stripes were replaced with green. Sasha turns to look at Malware with similar creatures to Malware and like the building, they also were colored green instead of red  

Malware: "When I was born, I was born wrong...My people can scan technology and become it." 

Sasha sees what appears to be a young Malware emerging from a Pyramid structure, The young Malware had yellow stripes instead of red or green and looks to be writhing on the floor in serious pain 

Malware: "But instead of I become the technology, The technology became me."  

The Scene changes to a series of experiments that looked to be excruciating  

Malware: "My creators, The Galvan tried to find a way to heal my corrupted life code, But they failed each time, The lead scientist Azmuth began to consider me his son and I considered him my father." 

Malware: "But in the end when a cure finally seemed in sight I took it but it only ended up corrupting me further. And so..." 

The scene changes to a destroyed planet  

Malware: "I lashed out." 

Malware: "I thought vengeance would finally rid me of my pain But in the end...I killed the only person who was trying to help me." 

The scene changes to Malware floating around the debris of the planet  

Malware: "So...I spent centuries drifting around the ruins of a world I destroyed. I was hopeless and lost." 

The scene changes to show Mad Ben caring for Malware  

Malware: "Until I met him. Like me he let his anger and hatred get the better of him and he didn't judge for what I did in the past , He would only judge me for what I do now." 

Malware: " And he did something I thought no one would ever give me." 

Sasha: "And what was it?" 

Malware: "A purpose." 

The scene changes to Charmcaster having to restrain Mad Ben as Malware seemingly dies  

Malware: "And when it was time to lay down my life for him, I did not hesitate." 

Sasha: "Wait if you died? Then how the heck are you speaking to me now?" 

Malware: "I am not an organic creature like you, It would take a long time for my body to recover but I would manage." 

Malware: "But then he met you, And he saw the same thing in you that he saw in me." 

Malware: "So he attached me to your body in the hopes you can save me and I you." 

Sasha: "So he fused me with an alien monster? Oh, I am so going to clobber him." 

Malware: "I have to concur, Can't say I agreed to this either." 

Malware: "But we have no time for arguments." 

Malware activates a hologram depicting where Sasha and everyone else are standing  

Malware: "If geologic scans are to be believed we are standing on top of some kind of large Mega Faunal lifeform known to locals as a 'Narwhal Worm'."  

Sasha: "Oh shoot." 

Malware: "I propose immediate action." 

Sasha: "Yeah sure whatever let's just not have our friends become worm chow!" 

Charmcaster is currently using a protection spell to shield the Toads and Sasha meanwhile Humungosaur, Now much larger than before is barely restraining the worm from attacking  

Humungosaur: "Hey babe! I don't how much longer I can hold it off." 

Charmcaster: " Ok can you give me a signal when you can't hold it anymore!?"  

Humungosaur: "Uh! I will uh ...I'll cry like a little girl!" 

Charmcaster: "SERIOUSLY!?" 

Humungosaur: "WHAT DO YOU WANT ME TO DO!?" 

As Humungosaur is about to lose grip on the worm, Sasha wakes up and Malware creates a powerful exoarmour with Malware and flies high in the sky thanks to Malware creating a jetpack, Sasha felt like she was Iron Man armor, the visor obscuring her face and the advanced hud not to mention she can hear Malwares voice in her head. The suit fires a series of missiles at the worm causing it to recoil , The worm lunges at the suit with Sasha hearing Malware's voice as it begins to suggest strategies  

Malware: "Sasha, I've crunched a few simulations, And by that I mean a few 100 of them , We don't have a huge chance of victory I suggest we use stratagem 454-63 Epsilon Alpha." 

Sasha: "The hell does that do!?" 

Malware: "Explaining it will take too long I will install the information directly into your brain." 

Sasha: "Wait what ?"  

Sasha's brain feels like it's on fire for a moment and in an instant Sasha knew how to perform the action. She knew it so well it felt like she knew it down to the finest details  

Malware: "Are you ready?" 

Sasha (Grins): "Born ready." 

The suit fires a series of missiles at the worm staggering it once more , Malware uses the visors hud to highlight Percy and Braddock striking that same cutesy pose Sasha did earlier  

Malware: "What should we do about them?" 

Sasha: " First we take care of the worm then the toads." 

Malware: "Understood." 

Percy and Braddock watch helplessly as the suit flies right over them not even noticing their presence. The suit lands next to Humungosaur who creates a sonic boom causing the worm to recoil  

Humungosaur: "Mal? Is that you?" 

The helmet visor changes from its orangish yellow color to a blood-red color when Malware speaks 

Malware: "It's good to see you, Ben Tennyson." 

Humungosaur: "You have no idea how good it is to hear your evil-sounding robot voice mate ." 

Malware: "The feeling is mutual." 

The suit flies up into the sky and the suit's right hand into a scythe-like hand. The suit lands on top of the worm and the blade begins to glow a pinkish color  

Sasha (Notices the blade): "Cool are you doing this?" 

Malware: "The sword is my doing but no I have no idea why it's glowing?" 

Sasha plunges the sword into the worm's brain , The worm roars in pain, With Sasha forces the worm to turn towards a large boulder and knocks it out. The suit jumps off the worm with everyone looking at it  

Charmcaster: "Sasha? Is that you in there?" 

The visor begins to glow pink  

Sasha: "It's me Charmy ." 

Grime: "On the one hand! That is awesome! On the other hand we kinda sort of...failed our mission." 

The visor glows red as Malware speaks  

Malware: "Incorrect toad." 

The suit forms the hammer from the palms of its hand and gives it to Grime  

Malware: "I was able to make an exact copy of the hammer before it was disintegrated hopefully this makes it worth our troubles." 

Grime (Excited): " Oh this is very much worth it!"

Sasha takes off her helmet as she notices Percy and Braddock giving her a pained yet angered look as they walk off   

Sasha: "Where are they going?" 

Grime: "Not everyone can enjoy the reward of victory and..."

Grime: "Simply can't pay the price." 

Mad Ben: "So...What do we do now?" 

Sasha (Weakly smiles): "We take the fight to Newtopia." 

Grime (Ominously): "I like the way you think lieutenant."
