Happy birthday! Here's a birthday cake and a phoenix:
~Sewers~ Going into the sewers of Tokyo (known to be one of the best looking and cleanest in the world) while carrying a bag that contained the unconscious body of Kuzco, Kronk reached a stream that flowed to a big drop. Below that drop was nothing but an endless abyss, a perfect place to get rid of Kuzco's body, Kronk thought. Dropping the bag into the stream, Kronk commented, "Mission accomplished." As Kronk walked away, the following happened... Spoiler: Actual HSD Footage As Kronk kept thinking and thinking, he decided to eventually do the right thing. Rushing to Kuzco, Kronk grabbed the bag that contained him right before falling into the abyss, saving the member of parliament. Now Kronk was trying to figure out what to do next... ------------------------------------------------------ ~Crystal Order HQ: Rassilon's Office~ "Perfect," Rassilon replied to Astral as he went back to his seat. A few seconds later, Javert came in to report to Rassilon... "Master Rassilon," Javert greeted the Crystal Order's No. 3 in command before bowing down. "Ah Javert... Tell me, how has Discord been today with his mission?" Rassilon asked. "Doing what he's been ordered, as usual. However... I noticed him speaking to thin air for while. It was as though there was someone conversing with him." Javert replied. Rassilon pondered for a bit, wondering why Discord was acting like that. "This... is rather troubling," Rassilon commented, "First Mewtwo telling me about his visions... and now Discord is speaking to thin air... those two may need to be monitored more closely... I'll most likely modify Discord's mission within the next few days. Good work Javert. You're dismissed for the day." Javert nodded and left the room. -------------------------------------------------------- ~Crystal Order HQ: Mewtwo's Chamber~ Mewtwo was alone in his chamber, meditating while listening to the music from the star locket he found on the moon. Suddenly, Discord just burst into Mewtwo's room as though he were attending a party, breaking Mewtwo's meditation... "Mewtwo! Looking good today!" Discord said as he came in. "Good to see you too Discord," Mewtwo replied, feeling a bit annoyed that Discord broke his meditation. "So, whatcha doin'?" Discord asked. "I was meditating until you arrived. Needed to think about something that happened in my mission today," Mewtwo replied. "Oh, you mean the moon?" Discord asked, "I heard you went to get umm, I think it was... Rida and Zett, to ally with us. How'd that go?" "The mission itself was rather simple," Mewtwo answered, "But what happened after... frightened me." "What happened?" Discord asked, starting to feel worried about his friend. "Pain... suffering... death," Mewtwo replied, "When I completed my mission, I felt a disturbance coming from the dark side of the moon. When I went there, I found actual ruins. I believe they are of the Moon Kingdom legend many on Earth tell their children about, and that there may be a truth to these legends after all. But while there, I heard many voices in my head. I then had a vision of destruction all over me. All those wars and atrocities throughout history that I've read about, I believe I now know what it feels like to be in one. However, after I had my vision, I found this locket. I'm not sure who it belonged to, but it plays a musical tone that is rather soothing. Listening to it brings me a peace of mind I have never known." "Wow, sounds like you've been through a lot," Discord said as he patted Mewtwo on his back. Nodding, Mewtwo grabbed the locket, and started playing the music on the locket once more. "You're right, that certainly is soothing," Mewtwo commented, "Hey... I think I could sing something from that tone... Fighting evil by moonlight... Winning love by daylight.... Never running from a real fight... She is the one named Sailor Moon... sorry, I don't know where that came from. Guess I might've been focusing a lot on that article on Time magazine about the Sailor Scouts." ----------------------------------------------- Spoiler ~Tokyo Streets: Starbucks Coffee~ A few minutes passed by after Darien left, leaving May feeling tense that he may need help. Sighing, Melinda got up and said, "I can't believe I'm doing this." "You sure about this?" Fitz asked. May simply shrugged in response, and left to look for Darien, wondering if he got himself into any trouble. After May left, Osgood, Fitz, and Simmons noticed Rosalina and Luigi arrive. Noticing Luigi, Simmons whispered to the other two, "Guys... isn't that Luigi?" "It is..." Osgood replied, "But... where's Mario?" "No idea," Fitz added quietly. ------------------------------------------------------------- ~Triskelion (aka J.I.A. Headquarters)~ After gathering all the information he can get on the Apollo 11 mission, Nick Fury started listening to a classified interview from 1969 taken with Neil Armstrong, Buzz Aldrin, and an unnamed interviewer... INTERVIEWER: "First of all, I would like to congratulate the two of you on your successful mission to the moon. Now that relations with other planets have been happening for a few years now, it was Earth's turn to show the other worlds that we are capable of achieving a successful space flight. Tell me, what was your favorite memory of going to the moon?" ARMSTRONG: "Uh, you know, everything... being a big part of Earth's history. It was incredible... you know, placing the Japanese flag on the Moon's surface, showing how much we as a nation have come. It's incredible." ALDRIN: "I agree. The whole experience has been astounding. Many years from now, the people of Earth will look at us and see that anything is possible. That we don't need aliens to take us from one place to another with their ships. We, the people of Earth are very capable of that." INTERVIEWER: "And I guess we might as well also celebrate the fact that we beat those damn Russian Commies in the space race, right?" *laugh* ARMSTRONG: *laugh* ALDRIN: *laugh* INTERVIEWER: "But anyway, back to business. Now, I'm sure we've all grown up with the Moon Kingdom fairy tale our parents would tell us before our bedtime when we were kids. The sad story of the Moon princess and her subjects, the handsome prince from Earth she was going to marry, and how they all lost their lives at the hands of an evil witch. The death of the Earth prince eventually caused a sort of power vacuum on Earth, with many different power-hungry rulers wishing to take over, causing a worldwide war that destroyed almost everything in our planet. In the end, when it seemed all hope was lost, a light appeared, and guided the citizens of Earth back to a peace that would last till today. Or at least, that's how we were told as kids, and we always believed it was made up. But, after your trip to the moon, there seems to be some evidence that adds truth to this fairy tale?" ARMSTRONG: "That's right. After the loss of transmission when we landed, Buzz and myself had a small walk, and went to the dark side of the moon. As you can see, the photographs taken there reveal surprising secrets. Actual ruins. Like the ones you find in Italy and Greece. But on the moon." ALDRIN: "And what struck us the most was that there were actual remains of people. This was a bona fide ancient civilization. And I bet that what we saw was THE Moon civilization we've known as since we were kids." INTERVIEWER: "That's very interesting. Now, you mentioned finding remains there. Any belonging to the Moon princess?" ARMSTRONG: "Not exactly, and that's what's strange. While we found remains for many people who lived there, none belonged to the Moon princess herself." ALDRIN: "Same thing with the princess's subjects or the Earth prince. Nothing. No traces of any remains at all. And we searched very thoroughly." As the interview continued playing, Nick Fury was looking at the pictures Neil Armstrong and Buzz Aldrin took, observing the ruins that the two astronauts took pictures of. ------------------------------------------------------------- ~Sora's and Roxas's Home~ After inserting the Call of Duty: Clack Ops disc to their PS3, Sora and Roxas considered a Deathmatch to be best for this type of stuation. "Alright Kairi, hope you're ready for a Deathmatch!" Sora said. "And may the best gamer win!" Roxas added as the online Deathmatch was about to begin. --------------------------------------------------------------- ~Minato Disrict: Jack Sparrow's Home~ "Muppets eh? Sounds interesting," Jack Sparrow commented after Pipsqueak told him about what happened today, "Though, that oil baron wanting to destroy a building just for diamonds sounds very suspicious to me. As though he had a bigger plan... though, I can't think of why." "So, can I still help them out?" Pipsqueak asked. "Sure, as long as you do your schoolwork like that green frog said," Sparrow replied. "Yes! Thank you Mr. Sparrow!" Pipsqueak happily said as he went to his room. -------------------------------------------------------------- Spoiler ~Alleyway~ Spoiler After getting the information Cadence(?) needed from Shining Armor with her magic, the general collapsed to the ground. "Thank you so much dear. You've been of great help to me," Cadence(?) told the unconscious Shining Armor. Suddenly, Cadence(?) felt something whoosh past her, causing a cut on her right cheek. "Oww!" Cadence(?) cried. Looking at the ground, she noticed that what whooshed past her was a rose with a very sharp stem, which was now standing firmly on the ground. "What the..." Cadence(?) said as she turned around and saw who threw the rose... Spoiler: BGM Cadence saw a young man wearing a tuxedo and a mask, and looked like he was ready to fight. "Who do you think you are?" Cadence(?) asked with a threatening tone. Spoiler: BGM "I am Tuxedo Mask of the Japanese Intelligence Agency! General Shining Armor is a very good friend of mine! And by harming him, you have become my enemy!" Tuxedo Mask replied. "Ohoho, looking for a fight are we? Fine by me!" Cadence(?) shouted as she started transforming to her actual appearance... Now revealed to be Queen Chrysalis, the evil queen got in a fighting position, ready to attack Tuxedo Mask. Noticing the Crystal Order logo on her chest, Tuxedo Mask said, "Crystal Order, huh? What do you want with Shining?" Tuxedo Mask asked. "None of your business tuxedo boy!" Chrysalis replied as she rushed towards Tuxedo Mask, ready to take him down. Tuxedo Mask jumped and avoided Chrysalis's attack, sending three of his sharp roses towards Chrysalis. Avoiding getting hit, Chrysalis yelled, "Is that all you got?" Grinning, Tuxedo Mask took out a small cane, and pointed it at Queen Chrysalis. The cane then extended all the way to the evil queen, pinning her to the wall. "I guess not," Tuxedo Mask said, answering Chrysalis's previous question. Just then, Tuxedo Mask was kicked on the side by surprise, falling to the ground. Looking up, Tuxedo Mask saw Rubeus coming to Queen Chrysalis's aid... "I knew you'd need my help," Rubeus told Chrysalis. "I had him beat!" Chrysalis responded. "Suure you did," Rubeus replied, "Now let's teach this piece of J.I.A. trash a lesson to not mess with the Crystal Order!" 'Not good,' Tuxedo Mask thought to himself as he got up, trying to think of how to beat the two of them. "Need some help?" a voice behind Tuxedo Mask asked. Turning around, Tuxedo Mask noticed Melinda May, who looked ready for a big fight... Smiling, Tuxedo Mask said, "Thanks." "Well well well, if it isn't my old friend, Agent Melinda May. Long time no see," Rubeus said as he noticed May, "It's been a while since Bahrain, hasn't it May?" Knowing exactly what Rubeus was trying to do to her, May remained silent, and focused on the fight that was about to happen... ------------------------------------------------- Spoiler ~Vermilion City Gym~ Spoiler Spoiler: BGM As the gym match between Lt. Surge and Anthony was about to begin, Finnick Surge (Lt. Surge's son), acting as a referee for the match, said, "Ok guys, this is gonna be a one-on-one match. Challenger Anthony from California vs. Gym Leader Lt. Surge for the Thunder Badge. Ready... begin!" Adéwalé meanwhile was sitting on the bleachers, wondering how long this match would last. "Aight Anthony, le's make one thing pretty clear. Raichu here doesn't consider losin' as an option. So ya better be prepared for a very tough match," Lt. Surge told Anthony. "RAI!!!" Surge's Raichu added. "Yeah yeah, whatever," an inpatient Anthony said as he took out a Pokeball and threw it, "Charizard, I CHOOSE YOU!" Out of the Pokeball came a Charizard ready for battle... "Aww yeah, I got me a badass Charizard. And what do you have, a cute little Raichu. Ooh, bet you're scarred now, aren't you Surge," Anthony said, taunting his challenger. Not feeling impressed, Lt. Surge ordered Raichu, "Raichu, hit 'im wit ya Thundabolt attack." "RAICHUUU!!!!" Surge's Raichu yelled as it hit Anthony's Charizard with a Thunderbolt attack, instantly causing it to faint. Spoiler: BGM "WHAT THE HELL???!!!" Anthony cried as he saw his Charizard faint instantly, "How's a badass Charizard supposed to lose to a damn Raichu??!! And why the hell is this music playing in the background when I lost???!!!" "I think ya forgot somethin' important about Charizards... Times 2 weakness to electric attacks!" Lt. Surge replied, "Better luck next time pal." "Yeah, well... this was a stupid gym anyway," Anthony said as he summoned his Charizard back to its Pokeball, "If you'll excuse me, I'm gonna go to a gym that's a billion times better than this one." Giving Lt. Surge the finger, Anthony then rushed to the exit, on his way to continue his Pokemon journey. Lt. Surge, Raichu, Finnick, and Adéwalé all sighed and shook their heads.
I second this
Yeah, unfortunately (or those who happen to be in LA on September 6th).
I wish I was in Los Angeles right now ;~; Would've loved to take part in this.
