Direct-to-video sequel: Dream Team: Demolishing the Fourth Wall

Trip the Fantasy Man of Wacky-Jacky Land, a dimension where "Anything, and I do mean anything, goes." A world filled with the maddest and wackiest phenomena manifested from the craziness of the minds of the human race. All the surrealness of Monty Python and Bobobo combined.

Discover "The Fourth Wall", a barrier that separates their world from the real world. They accidentally break it and get sucked into a movie theater. They look around and realize that everyone is live action but they are the only ones animated. What they discover gives them the same traumatizing shock they felt last time, they along with their world are nothing but a cartoon made by DreamWorks Animation, coincidently the maker of Cameron’s favorite shows but he never thought their own lives would be made by them. They decide to search for their creator (AKA me) to ask him how to get back to their world and also make him answer a ton of complaints. But they are in Florida and he lives in DreamWorks animation studios in California. So they are on a road trip across America. They hitchhike, stow away, and bus from state to state, while getting out of scrapes in between. Cameron has a scathingly brilliant idea to pass the time while they roam, he decides to play one of America’s greatest road trip

songs. “Not 99 bottles of wine,” Razor complains. “Nope, better. Life is a Highway by Rascal Flats.” Cameron starts with the first verses.

Cameron: Life's like a road that you travel onWhen there's one day here and the next day goneSometimes you bend, sometimes you standSometimes you turn your back to the windThere's a world outside ev'ry darkened doorWhere blues won't haunt you anymoreWhere the brave are free and the lovers soarCome ride with me to the distant shoreWe won't hesitateTo break down the garden gateThere's not much time left today

Life is a highwayI wanna ride it all night longIf you're going my wayI wanna drive it all night long

Then Gina joins alongside him.Cameron: Through all these cities and all these townsIt's in my blood and it's all aroundGina: I love you now like I loved you thenThis is the road and these are the handsCameron: From Mozambique to those Memphis nightsGina: The Khyber Pass to Vancouver's lightsKnock me down get back up againCameron: You're in my blood I'm not a lonely manThere's no load I can't holdThe road’s so rough this I knowGina: I'll be there when the light comes inBoth: Just tell 'em we're survivors

Cameron: Life is a highwayI wanna ride it all night longGina: If you're going my wayI wanna drive it all night long

They urge Razor to join but he isn’t interested. Cameron: Gimme gimme gimme gimme yeah Both: Life is a highwayI wanna ride it all night longIf you're going my wayI wanna drive it all night long

Cameron: There was a distance between you and I Gina: (Between you and I) A misunderstanding once But now we look it in the eye Both: Ooooo...Yeah!

When they reach the last stanza, Razor decides to step in by playing the guitar solo.Razor: There ain't no load that I can't holdThe road’s so rough this I knowCameron: I'll be there when the light comes inBoth: Just tell 'em we're survivors

Razor: Life is a highwayI wanna ride it all night longBoth: If you're going my wayI wanna drive it all night longCameron: Gimme gimme gimme gimme yeah

All: Life is a highwayI wanna ride it all night long If you're going my wayI wanna drive it all night long

They all sing along while passing through many American landmarks. The bus they’re on stops suddenly because the bus driver can’t take any more of their singing. They get dumped at an unlikely town: Branson, Missouri, which is coincidently their creator’s hometown. There, they all realize that this world is not that different from their own, only without the sinister Yinari causing destruction and terror. None of them could afford a motel room so they are forced to sleep outside in a meadow. They decide to hit the sack separately.

Cameron was lying by himself trying to catch some shut-eye while ignoring the cold weather. Then Gina appeared next to him. The two of them have a chat discussing that this world is better than their own and because of that why can’t they stay here? Gina replies that their family and friends will miss them and they made an oath to the Yangari that they will defend their world no matter what. Cameron admits she’s right, but is distressed by the fact that they’ll have to leave this peaceful world forever. She then comforts him by resting his head on her chest and says they’ll just have to do their best to make their own world exactly like this one, Cameron agrees definitely. The two of them kiss while rolling around in the grass. Cameron then complains that he’s still cold. Gina obliges to fix that, suddenly she inflates her belly launching Cameron into the sky and falls down bouncing on her large gut. She has provided him with herself as a makeshift mattress. Cameron laughs and thanks her. He then uses her soft, warm, huge belly as a bed to sleep on. Before they went to sleep, Cameron calls to Razor that there’s room for one more. Razor calls back, “I’ll pass.” He mumbles to himself, “Lovebird doofuses.” He overheard the whole thing and thought he’d die from sappiness exposure.

They finally reach California and head towards Glendale to the DreamWorks Animation Studios. When they meet up with their creator, they complain about themselves. He warns them that they can't exist in this world and have to get back to theirs. But they complain that if the viewers stop watching them, the ratings will slump, their show will be cancelled, and they'll cease to be. He tells them that's why it's their job to entertain them so they'll keep on living. The team, with the help of their creator, finds a way back into their own world. Before they left WJ Land, Trip warns them that they are the only ones who know this secret that they and their world are all fictional and mustn’t tell it to anyone, not even their masters.

First there was Wonderland, then Wackyland, now Wacky-Jacky Land, a demented dimension filled with insane, wacky, kooky, nonsense, nonsense that beckons unsuspecting people into its madness, especially if they’re rational thinkers. They can only survive if they have special passes that keeps them safe, as long as the craziness sees those passes, they ignore the owners. These passes are only in the possession of the emissary of the land, The Fantasy Man, or Trip for short.

Razor eventually got lost in Wacky-Jacky land without a pass. If he thought Cameron’s humor was annoying, wait till he meets the full absurdity fury of WJ Land. He was brought in by what looked like a salesman selling rapping yo-yo’s on a licorice tightrope, then one crazy thing led to another and the next thing he knew he was surfing on an ocean of baklava with an army of Cheshire camels selling paper clip straighteners and cannons mounted by Cannon cameras shooting door-to-door salesmen begging him to shave 50% off shaving cream insurance. The team tried to find him but the crazy inhabitants wouldn’t speak to them because the passes they have made them ignore them completely. When they finally found Razor, he looked like his brain was nuked by a stampede of stupidity.

The creatures that inhabit Wacky-Jacky Land are a variety of nutty, bonkers, loony-tune, freakos. There are Bezabinwoofers, Schmongendorgens, and Heebledeebles, to name a few. The most annoying of all the wildlife is the inane, stupid, and most impractical Yickity-Yackity-Flibber-Flabber. They are always found in herds and stampede around willy-nilly constantly repeating their name over and over because apparently they all share a one-track memory so they are doomed to keep on repeating their name for the rest of their lives. “Yickety. Yackety. Flibber. Flabber. Yickety. Yackety. Flibber. Flabber.” The most dangerous and scariest of the wildlife is the deadly, bloodthirsty, vicious, Whatevertheheckitis. They hunt in packs called Whateverthehecktheyares.

There are other dimensions besides this one but are just as crazy: Noodle-Doodle Land, which is filled with noodles, Turky-Lurky Land- turkeys, Bonker-Wonkers Land- bonking, Nutty-Buddy Land- nuts, Wonky-Donkey Land- donkeys, Dizzy-Lizzy Land- dizziness, Loopy-Doopy Land- loops.

Throughout the show, the team sometimes leads their foes into WJ Land and does many crazy, wacky, surreal stuff to drive them mad. They do crazy stuff related to Monty Python’s weird comedy styles, Bobobo’s random techniques, and shticks based on Looney Tunes, Woody Woodpecker, and Tex Avery. All of the crazy rules that they follow are found in “Count Wackyshire’s Insanitium Codex”. This one time they lead a Yinari monster into what looks like a classroom, they were all teachers welcoming him to math class, the Yinari was easily duped into thinking that he’s late for class. First they ask him a math problem, but weirdly, this math problem was told in the style and rhythm of a popular 80s song,

“If kid A walks 500 miles and kid B walks 500 more, at what point will they’ve walked a thousand miles to reach the yoyo store? I need the answer! Need the answer! Need the answer! Need the answer! Need the ans- ans- ans- ans- -swer -swer!”

12 days of Christmas

All: On the twelve days of Christmas, the teamsters gave to you,Cyber: Twelve cyber blasters!G: Eleven giant squashers!Black: Ten blazing burners!Cyber: Nine particle busters!G: Eight muscle mashers!Black: Seven shadow shaders!Cyber: Six circuit breakers!All: Five extreme freak-outs!G: Four sumo slammers!Black: Three slashed butts!Mech & Tech: Two sidekick prankers!All: And a big honkin’ Dream Team Beam!!!

Instruments the team plays:

Cyber-guitar, ukulele, violin, piano, synthesizer. G-keyboard, tambourine, guitar, harp. Black-electric guitar, organ, drums.

(Season 1): The team fights a monster of the week brought from different Yinari lords. Whenever they defeat them, some of them go berserk and mutate into giant homunculi, that’s when the team goes giga.

Throughout the show, the team comes up with their own slang terms:

Oh my yang! What the yin! Yin-for-brains yang-forsaken yin-hole.

Darxus, lord of hate and the Yinari hates the Dream Team, but mostly Cameron because he led his team to actually defeat him in battle, plus his happiness and awful jokes set his ire on fire. He vows to break that stupid grin off his face. Zylpheeza the twisted, lustful empress of vanity believes she is beauty and there is no one else more beautiful than her, until she notices Gina. Her beauty fills Zylpheeza with jealousy and vows to shut her down, permanently. So every day, he and the lords head to the “nursery” and create the most diabolical, nasty creation known to not-man. Their bodies are made from the dirty, filthy soil of their dirty, filthy planet and their mad, maniacal souls are given to from pieces of their mad, maniacal lord’s own souls. Whenever the team defeats these monsters, their souls are dispersed and their bodies crumble into their previous state. “That’s the way the creature crumbles!”

Cameron invents for the team communicators. He also invents for Gina a device that stores her costume on a digital file so her clothes and suit switch places whenever it’s go time.

Magic words: 6


Cyber-tize! G-tastic! Whatever. And when they become The Extreme Dream Team,

EEEEEEEEEEEEEEXTREEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEME!!!!!!!!!

In extreme mode, the team becomes devastatingly TO’ed. Normally they can change their environment to their choice of battleground. The team roars their earth-shaking mind-blowing tempest-raging yells up into the sky. “AAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAUUUUUUUUUUGGGGGGGGGGGGGGGGGHHHHHHHHHHHHH!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!” They’re so devastating that the sky begins to crack and suddenly shatter. The clear blue skies transform to red stormy and ominous. They have total mastery of their own battlefield. Cyber summons massive thunderbolts from the sky, he uses his fingers as a lightning rod and points towards his opponents striking them. Black summons lava and fire from inside the earth, he gestures his hands controlling them, he grasps his opponents with the lava crushing them. And G smashes against the earth causing tremors and quakes, she can even delve her fists in the ground and lift up the whole ground with her opponents and flip it over crushing them. Later whenever they do it again, the screen becomes blurry and static from their wrath. They’re so devastating that the show starts to become unstable. Whenever they walk, the whole earth shakes which causes the screen to flicker.

Custom styles. Upgrade chips that Cyber installs for the team. Ex. flame, blizzard, hydro, thunder, earth, light, and dark customs for Cyber and G. When Cyber installs any one of these, he undergoes a color change while possessing all these abilities. “CUSTOM STYLE INSTALL: FLAME. INSTALLING. INSTALLATION COMPLETE: FLAME CUSTOM.” For G, because her suit is digital and linked to her device, her device is also connected to Cyber in which she gets a new bikini style while possessing those powers too. Black at first isn’t interested in them but gets talked into using them for himself too.

Cyber-tize! is the word he uses to infuse himself or other objects with his powers. Cyber-shift! is the word he uses to scan the properties of any object or vehicle and can change

himself into a replica of it. Cyber-link! is the word he uses to link up to anything or anyone.

Cyber’s new techniques:

the Loop-Hoops: two hoops which are really dimensional portals that Cyber tosses in which one enters through one hoop and comes out the other hoop. For example, he could toss one hoop in front of an oncoming train and it could enter through it, and when he tosses the other hoop and places it in front of the first one, the train comes through the second hoop and continues passing through the first. So he’s trapped the train in a two-way dimensional loop.

“Circuit Breaker”: a finishing attack in which Cyber’s body charges up and his whole body shoots right towards the enemy while he disappears. The enemy’s body gets coated in a grid-like covering and gets electrocuted. Finally, Cyber reappears behind him and the enemy’s body collapses. What really happens is Cyber divides himself into many microscopic versions and destroys every molecule in the enemy’s body.

Another new gadget he has is the Dimension Jumper, a device in which the team uses to cross other dimensions and teleport to anywhere. There are some glitches that occur like them coming out of a closet, under a bed or out of a toilet.

The reason why Cameron and Gina survived the huge fireball a while back was they were protected by a love barrier. Whenever two Yangari lovers are in grave danger and would use themselves to protect each other, a force field that can repel anything, brought from their hearts, is formed around them.

Although Cameron and Gina are in love with each other, it wouldn’t be practical if they told their parents that. So they decide to do it the old fashioned step-by-step way, they tell them that they’re dating and like each other.

They even call each other lovey-dovey names:

cyberkins heavy G mecharoonie stretchy-cakes roby-pie big momma iron heart inflata-babe cyber baby rubber curves sugar circuits love cushion digi-bear honey titan giga-bunny hot muscles laugh-o-matic sumo sweetie love machine pretty puffer sillytron my big, bouncy, balloonist baby my strong, steel-chested, cybernetic sweetums Cyber- “Your soft, smooth, scented, supersized bod is like a field of warm, fluffy daisies.” G- “The sound of your motorized mechanical heart and sizzling circuits is an electro-synthe-

magnetic orchestra.”

The love song the two of them share is Richard Marx’s “Right Here Waiting.” That’s also the same lullaby Gina sings to her little brother.

Throughout the show, Cyber and the team devise brand-new Dream Schemes

Besides inflating to 20 feet, G can inflate her body to look fat which enables her to repel incoming missiles, cushion her falls, and roll and bounce like a ball. She can also enhance her muscles to give herself increased strength. All she does is flex her arms while thinking herself big and strong and her muscles bulk up from her biceps, triceps, deltoids, abs and pectorals. “Booyah! Ripped and ready, baby!” Sometimes her physique goes to her head. When she does it, she looks like a normal-sized bodybuilder but when she gets angry, she takes it to extreme proportions making her look like a hulk. She only uses her ability to shrink or deflate to the size of a mouse whenever she’s on a mission that requires a very small hero. Another trick she does is whenever they’re falling, she inflates her butt cushioning their fall.

Quotes:

“No wait, don’t smash me! I smash you!!!” “Here I grow again.” “Well I’m all puffed out.”

Her inflatability is also limitless, there was this one time when she got imprisoned in a jail cell. That didn’t stop her. “It’s time to get pumping.” She gives a deep inhale, and holds her breath puffing out her cheeks. She stood with her arms and feet across while thinking big thoughts, imagining herself like a huge, fat balloon. Then came a hissing sound when suddenly her feet start getting pudgy while her legs and thighs swell and become rounder. Her behind then starts to pump up into the size of a beach ball. Her arms were next to fill out which made them stubbier along with her hands as her fingers and toes pop out like tiny mini balloons. Her belly and bust grew farther than the rest of her. Her gut bloats like an expanding mound of dough and her breasts inflate like two balloons. Last but not least, her neck expands giving her multiple chins. Her whole entire body has blown up like she’s an inflatable doll. She looks at herself huge, fat and round like a 700-pound sumo wrestler, but surprisingly she didn’t stop there. She puffs her cheeks harder making her blow herself up even more. She continues inflating herself while her rubbery skin stretches out farther with all the air in her blimp-like body. Her belly, butt and everything keeps on ballooning, blowing, swelling, bloating and growing bigger, fatter, larger and massiver like a never ending expanding mass. She eventually fills up the whole entire room. Her enormous girth squeezes against the cell bars as she struggles trying to push herself to the limits. Her ballooning bod finally manages to burst through the bars of the cell. That’s when she stops growing and wriggles her massive flesh out of the tiny cell. She looks at herself as a monstrously huge and fat blob. “Whoa, there goes a whole year of dieting.” She then opens her mouth and a huge gust of air blows out which makes her body shrink and deflate down. But she decides to stop at her old sumo form. “Like I always say, bigger is always better,” she says while posing and showing off her fat physique. She stomps away.

Gina realizes she has a problem when she sleeps, it’s not bedwetting or snoring but bed-blowing. Due to her powers, she has a tendency to inflate while she sleeps. That’s why she says she dreams she’s The Hindenburg.

Cyber always enjoys watching G grow and inflate. That’s why she always poses, flirts and shows off her bod in front of him. They always hug each other as he relaxes on her warm thick plush large body while she snuggles him close to her.

One day the team learns there’s a new fitness center in town. Gina always wanted to be a member of one. But what they don’t know is that it’s secretly being run by a Yinari monster made by Zylpheeza of Vanity to give Gina a taste of her own medicine. The monster disguises himself as the owner and welcomes the team but mostly Gina because he says she has the most perfect poise and sleekest body he’s ever seen. He asks her to become an official member of the club. She’s delighted. The rest of the gang congratulates her. What the monster plans to do is put Gina through the most terrible and harshest workout of her life. But when she did the workouts, she did them all without breaking a sweat. Cameron and Razor wanted to know how Gina was doing. When they tried to call her, she wouldn’t answer her phone. After doing a 1000 yd. dash, Gina decided to stop for today. But the owner wouldn’t let her go. He says now that she’s a member of their club, nobody stops exercising. They strive for perfection, even if it kills them. Gina was shocked. While she tries to escape, she discovers the club’s horrible secret, this was a trap set up by the Yinari capturing obese people and forcing them into torturous nonstop workouts. The owner appears and reveals himself to be Zylpheeza’s creation sent to bring Gina out to pasture. “G-tastic!” she says as she dukes it out with him. But she was getting beat by herself, that’s when the rest of the gang arrives. The monster then captures Cyber and Black and G was all by herself. The monster says that this world is filled with imperfection that needs to be perfected, like these fat and lazy pigs. G then tells him he’s wrong, just because people are obese doesn’t mean they’re imperfect; it’s what’s going on in their hearts and minds that matters. She then realizes she doesn’t need to be a part of a fitness club to be perfect either, as long as people think she and everyone else is perfect, that’s all that matters. The monster then says, “Why should you care about them anyway? You ain’t fat.” “Or am I?” she says. She calls upon her powers of melody to change the scene. All the obese prisoners stepped in beside her dressed in street clothes. G looks towards her opponents and raises her fist in the sky. Suddenly she inflates her body looking like a huge, fat girl dancer. She dance-steps first, followed by her backup dancers. She then does her rendition of Weird Al Yankovic’s “Fat”. She sings the first stanzas while advancing towards her opponent. He strikes first but she uses her thick skin to block him. When her song reaches the chorus, she fights the monster and soldiers while singing and dancing at the same time. She squashes, rolls over, crushes, and even sit’s on all the soldiers. Cyber and Black can’t believe what they’re seeing. The monster was all by himself now, but has decided to finish her once and for all. He reveals his strongest attack and beats back G. She was really steamed now; she then inflates herself to 30 feet high becoming a walking parade balloon. She then jumps up high and dive-bombs down towards him, completely obliterating him. She reaches the last stanza of her song. She then deflates herself. Cyber and Black were amazed by her. “That was something else, you were so, so.” “Don’t say it. Tell anyone about this and you’re dead,” she orders them.

A Yinari was created to challenge G’s beauty and style. The Yinari challenges her to a pose-off in which they bust out their sexiest, mind-numbing, jaw-dropping poses to see which one is ranked the hottest babe on earth. They each pose in front of an audience, G shows off her many face poses along with her best positions, while the Yinari shows off more lucrative, obscene poses which has the audience

10


hypnotized by her dark, corrupted beauty. G becomes a little worried, “How about I take this to the next level.” She grows up high and gains the upper hand. But unfortunately the Yinari actually copies her and reaches taller than her. The audience becomes even more nulled by her. G becomes so angry, “See if you can top this.” She beefs up into muscle mode and flexes her best bodybuilder poses. The Yinari surprisingly does the same, although her muscular physique is grotesquely oversized and hideous, the audience is still entranced. G was really in a pickle, but then she had a scathingly brilliant idea, “If anything I can do you can do better, can you do this?” She then balloons to fat mode. The Yinari reluctantly copies her, she busts a huge, fat, disgusting, pig-like pose which deactivates her hypnotic spell. Suddenly the audience breaks out of their trance and utterly retches at the Yinari for how disgusting and hideous she is. Some vomit and faint while the rest turn away and applaud for G, although she is less terrifying than her. So G tricked the Yinari into copying her every move which showed the people what she really is. G wins the pose-off.

Black Death still fears the dark chaotic dragon-man beast inside him. It’s not anger that awakens him but hate. That’s why whenever he hears someone call him “blackie”, he hates that person so much that the beast within him is unleashed. Cyber and G try to contain him but have a hard time. He eventually learns to partially control it.

Razor abuses his show-stopping powers. He used it to skip school, steal all the food, and graffiti the teachers. The rest of the team wouldn’t stand for it, but Razor convinces them that this way they can defeat the Yinari the quick and easy way. The team kind of agrees with him. With this ability, the team freezes the Yinari monsters and destroys them without them moving. They begin to like this until Mech and Tech receive a call from the show’s creator. He tells them their show’s ratings have slumped. People have stopped watching them because the team has taken all the action out of the show by relying on show-stop to do everything. The team was horrified that their show will be canceled and they’ll cease to be unless they do it the old fashioned way.

Razor vows to one day overthrow Darxus and turn from the prince of darkness into the king.

If there’s one thing Razor so utterly hates more than Yinari goons, it’s Cameron’s cheap, awful jokes, wisecracks and clichés. He always conks him on the head to show rejection. When he told him to quit his obsessive singing, Cameron asked, “Do you expect me to talk?” and he responded, “No mister doofus I expect you to SHUT UP.”

A Yinari monster was sent to break the team’s hearts on Valentine’s day. She arranges everyone to avoid Cameron making him believe no one loves him not even Gina. He sings a mournful song, “Me and my broken heart.” She also disguises herself as a girl to seduce Razor on Valentine’s Day while the rest of the Yinari provide fake mates for the rest of the high school students in order to break their hearts and receive large amounts of sorrow. She was everything Razor imagined to be the perfect girl. But she soon tricks him which caused him to feel heartbroken but later shook it off for he has no remorse at all. Later he contemplates on what love really is by singing Haddaway’s “What is love.”

The team has their own favorite psych-up words,

Cameron- Zap! Gina- Pow!

11


Razor-Boom! Boom goes the Black!

Razor’s words of wisdom:

Black- “I think therefore you suck.” Cyber- “That doesn’t make any sense.” Black- “Who’s askin’?”

“If I had a dollar for every time I heard that, I’d buy my own spin-off TV show!”, “My conscience died 10 years ago, what’s your excuse?” Cameron- “Hey amigo, whatcha doin’ up there?” Razor- “Practicing a new yoga technique,

what’s it look like!?” Cameron- “Looks to me like you’re stuck in a tree.” Razor- “Bingo, we have a winner. Your grand prize is, GET ME DOWN FROM HERE, NOW!”

Cameron- “Why is he called a king?” Razor- “’Cause he likes bananas with ketchup.” CONK! “Whaddya think!?”

Cameron- “I’m having a zip-a-dee-doo-dah day, how about you?” Razor- “I got your zip-a-dee-doo-dah day right here!”

Black- “Cyber?” Cyber- “Yes?” Black- “Shut up.” Cyber- “You’re gonna have to help those people, Black.” Black- “Like I have a choice?” “That makes about as much sense as a shipwreck in Central Park.” Darxus- “You really care about these weak, pathetic humans you call friends?” Black- “They’re

not my friends, they’re my amigos!”

Cameron teaches Razor how easy it is to be good by singing, “Put one foot in front of the other.”

The gang also has the opportunity to impersonate The Three Stooges. Cameron is Curly, Gina’s Larry, and Razor’s Moe.

All the team’s heads can rotate 360 degrees. Cyber because he’s a robot, G because she’s flexible, and Black because he’s just creepy.

Sometimes Cyber’s head gets disconnected, knocked off or blown off his neck and he has to guide his body to put it back on.

One time they face a water Yinari, they say, “Talk about pure evil, he’s dripping with it!”

They even face advanced Yinari creatures who can multiply themselves. “Uh oh gang, looks like these creeps have taken multiplication class.”

When really in trouble, with Cameron's knowledge of computers, Gina's knowledge of science, and Razor's knowledge of machines, the team builds a hero themselves to the beat of Daft Punk’s “Harder Better Faster Stronger”, Cameron provides the mind, Gina the heart, and Razor the body to create the perfect backup hero for the team. They each name him the “(Razor) Megalomashin’ (Gina) Artificial-intelligent (Cameron) Xtremeotron", or M.A.X. Has three different personalities, imitates

12


famous comedians, famous actresses and pop stars, and famous tough guys. Probably because he has a little bit of each of the team’s personalities built into him. His abilities include possessing all the team’s powers combined. He has three different modes based on each of the team. Can separate into various vehicle/animal components. Final secret: can change into armor for each of the team. He later becomes the team’s family’s personal housekeeper and protector.

For some reason, Razor’s parents, Butch and Gladys dislike The Black Death because he reminds them of something terrible from their past. They believe he’s pure evil and wants to destroy everything in his sights.

The team discovers a whole new world inside Cameron’s computer. A digital electronic cybernetic dimension that is identical to Tron. The skies are rainbow colored with silicon-like flora and digital fauna. Since they discovered it, they claim to be the founders of this new frontier. Razor calls it cyberland, but Gina says it’s too small, more like cyberworld. But Cameron says those names are too cliché, since he and this world are alike, he should have the right to rule it. So by the powers vested in him, he dubs this cybernetic paradise, Cybernaria. In Cybernaria, they can play video games where they are the players, cruise along the information super highway to other computers, and battle life size computer viruses. In addition, Cameron writes a book that holds every information about himself and this new world entitled, “Encyclopedia Cybernetica”.

Switch powers: At some point, the team discovers they can lend each of their powers to one another.

CyberSquad: Cyberman (white colored), Cybergirl (Gina, platinum colored), Cyberpunk (Razor, grey colored). Gina and Razor can each share Cyber’s giant robot body; they both can turn into a C and link up with it which causes their own heads to appear on top. There was this one time the three of them wanted the body for themselves, all three of them accidentally link up to the robot all at once. This caused a major malfunction to the robot, when they came to, they were all dizzy but asked why they can hear each other so close. “AAAAAAAAAAAAAAHHHHHHHHH!!!!” they screamed as they looked and saw all three of their heads on the robot! “That’s what you get when you can’t share,” Tech commented.

Generation G: G-Girl (pink colored), G-Hunk (Cameron, gold colored), G-Dude (Razor, silver colored) They say, “We are Generation G, und ve gonna pump, you up!

The Black Pack: The Black Death (resembles dragon), The Black Fang (Cameron, resembles wolf), The Black Diva (Gina, resembles tiger). Unfortunately, Cameron and Gina developed side effects, they both became rude, mean, and adopted words, whatev, jerkbag and tch, bug off. Razor didn’t just lend them his powers but his own personality. They became even more tetchy when Cameron wanted to be the boss of The Black Pack. Later when battling, they became so hateful that Cameron turned into a wolf man and Gina into a she-tiger and went on a wild rampage. They’ve been overcome by Razor’s overwhelming darkness. Black went after Cameron while Mech, Tech, and M.A.X. went after Gina. The whole city was almost totally destroyed afterwards, which made the two vow never to use Razor’s powers again. Razor realizes that this is his curse to bear and no one should ever suffer from its corruption.

When all of their parents meet each other, some of them get along quite well, except for Lawrence and Butch. Lawrence is an average, straight, working man while Butch is a rough, tough, brawler. The two of them despise with each other but Cameron and Razor try to keep them from fighting. The two of them soon tell each other that they’re terrible fathers failing to get through to their sons. Lawrence has trouble understanding Cameron because he has no idea what’s going on in his head and Butch feels like

it’s his fault Razor is what he is now because he failed him as a father. So they do have something in common.

Leland, Gina’s little brother is amazed by the Dream Team, especially G-Girl because he loves her style, her beauty, and her inflatability. He wishes that she was his big sister; Gina asks him what’s wrong with herself being his sister. He says nothing, just that she’s more super than Gina is. She then tells him that she may be closer than you think. One time when the team stops by Leland’s school, every kid hurries towards them to crawl all over them. When Leland steps in, G notices him and says hello and what’s your name. He responds bashfully and tells her he really, really, likes her and G says isn’t he the cutest little sweetums she’s ever seen. She is also pleased to wow him with her many size-changing feats. He becomes so awed that he hugs her tight. While he was hugging her, he felt something very familiar about her. The way she hugged him, her perfume, and her calling him sweetums reminded him very much about his own sister, but he doesn’t think they’re the same.

Trip the Fantasy Man arrives unexpectedly to the team and warns them that there are tears from Wacky-Jacky Land that’s leaking its craziness into their world. That’s why there are reports of acts of absurd, unnatural craziness in town. The team tries to round up all the WJ land inhabitants and return them home while they patch up the tears. Among the people, some have been infected with “Nope”, a crazy disease that causes random behavior in people. For example, there were these two lovers and one of them asks, “Honey, will you marry me?” and the other stares at him and says, “Nope,” and slaps a pie in his face instead.

The one power that Trip restricts the team from using is the power to control the very events that go on in their world including future outcomes. It can only be possible through their creator’s very own computer that holds his master script containing all the details of their world and adventures, even their fates. This one time they actually get a hold of the computer and mess around with it by adding in new material and controlling their own speech. This soon gets out of hand and their world is filled with crazy junk brought by their foolish imaginations.

Cameo Knock-out: Throughout the show, sometimes the team gets beaten so hard that whenever they get hurled, Cyber’s Dimension Jumper gadget malfunctions and the team suddenly gets knocked right out of the TV and into the real world! They land in a live-action living room setting inhabited by a cameo guest star. They are surprised to see the team in their own living room. Before the team gets back in, they contemplate about the problems they are facing and the guest always gives good advice to the team. They remember it when returning to their world, the team says goodbye and wishes the guest luck with whatever they’re doing before they dropped in. They both give their salute.

Grobstopher, the Yinari lord of Greed challenges the team to a card game. While they play, he plans on cheating. But the team turns out to be the one’s cheating him into playing by the rules which turns the tables on him and make him lose. He then creates a Yinari made of trash spawned by human greed and carelessness. “This is a first, looks like the trash is taking us out instead. Stupid irony.”

G faces off against Zylpheeza. Since she’s the empress of vanity, she has the ability to take on the form of every person who she thinks is better than her. She says to G, “So you think you’re so hot? But are you hot enough to face…yourself?” She disguises herself as her. G battles against herself. They’re an even match. When the team arrives, they can’t tell them apart. “Cyber, that’s not me. It’s Queen sicko face,” they both say in unison. “Oh boy, it’s another who’s who scenario. Okay I’ve seen this on TV a bazillion times. We gotta ask some questions the Gina we know would know. What year were you born?” “2002,” they both say. “Too obvious. What’s your favorite color?” “Pink, duh,” they said again. “Yeah, duh,” Black says. “Okay then, I know, what’s the name of your little sister?” “I don’t have a little sister, I have a little brother named Leland,” they said again. “Dang it!” “Oh come on! Isn’t there anything you don’t know!? Stop copying me!! GRR!!!” the two squabble. “It’s no use, Cyber baby,” one of the G’s said. “It seems the queen has the power to copy the memories of the person she impersonates. So we’re wasting time.” The team looks stumped. “Looks like I’ll have to find out my own way,” Black says as he fires up his fist while Cyber stops him. One of the G’s has an idea. “Wait! Wait. Let me tell you this. If I were the queen, I would know I had the ability to copy the memories of other people. But in this case, I had no idea I could do that at all!” “If she says you’re the queen and you don’t know your own abilities, how would G know?” The team looks suspiciously at the other G, but she remains calm. “Oh, come now, Cyberkins. You can tell I’m your one and only honey titan.” She then sashays towards him and kisses him on the lips while the other G gets angered. Cyber then looks at her and says, “You know, the G I know and love has the same fresh scented perfume, and her skin feels like a field of warm fluffy daisies. But you, you feel like lumps of old spiky alligator skin, and you smell of dank murky grime and muck.” “YOU DARE INSULT THE QUEEN OF ALL EVIL!!!!!!?” She gave herself away again because due to her extreme vanity she never lets anyone talk to her like that. G then bashes her in the face. “That’s for laying your sick, filthy, icky lips on MY Cyber baby, you horrid materialistic space hag!!!”

Final battle: Darxus looks upon his council with great disgust at what they’ve been reduced to thanks to the team. A bunch of weak, sniveling, pathetic cowards. They’ve beaten every single monster each of the lords have produced and they’ve even managed to turn the whole council into shells of their former selves. Even Darxus himself is developing a twinge of fear at the sight of them. He decides he’s finally had enough. All the Yinari members merge into one monstrosity (a many-headed hydra), Dream Team gets beaten so hard they power down which reveals their identities to everyone in their town and

15


gets captured by TV cameras broadcasting to the whole world. When they come to, their families look at them in shame that they’ve been hiding this secret the whole time. The team feels like they failed big time now that their secret’s busted. Everyone else encourages them to fight back. That gave the team reason enough to carry on no matter what the cost. The team has shown so much that they’ve inspired the Yangari lords to combine with them to get back in the ring. Rianus merged with Cyber and Cressinda to G. The reason why Darxus and the Yinari are immortal is the Yinari's hearts absorb negativity that prevents them from dying, strong enough to withstand ten atom bombs. But with the combined might of the team and all the Yangari lords, they manage to create a major blow that causes the hearts to crack. Darxus suddenly feels a sharp painful heart attack for the first time. “GASP!!! I-impossible, our black hearts are virtually impregnable. First you defeat me in battle, annihilate my whole creations, now this!? WHAT ARE YOU!!!!?” “We’ve been telling you, we’re just three ordinary teens,” Cyber says. “With huge dreams,” G continues. “And awesome powers,” Black concludes. Suddenly Darxus’ right hand begins trembling in fear before them. “No, stay back, don’t do it!” “AND WE’RE GONNA CHANGE…THE…WORLD!!!” They create another major blast that shatters The Yinari’s hearts which causes the whole Yinari race to disparate into nothing. Darxus for the first time in his eon-long life feels the fear of death. “No…it…it can’t be. We…I…cannot…die. Evil…is…eternal. Endless eons of terror and chaos only to be eradicated by mere humans? You…You did this…You have actually given me death…Dream team…Dream Team……… DREEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAM TEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAM!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!” His famous last words. The team had finally successfully defeated The Yinari once and for all but they all collapse due to the overdose of power from the Yangari lords. Cyber shuts down, G deflates into a small, flat, pancake, and Black reverts in a puff of smoke all singed and battered. The next day, the team gets nursed back to health with them as the world’s saviors. Everyone including their families thanks them for being their protectors even when they know their identities. Rianus and the Yangari couldn’t congratulate them enough for their most splendid work. It appears that they can sense no trace of the Yinari anywhere. Cameron thinks that because they completed their mission, there’ll be no reason for them to keep their powers and will have to give them back to the lords. Cameron refused to accept that and tells the lords that their powers are theirs alone because they helped them and the whole world withstand the Yinari’s wrath so they would never give them up. Rianus agrees with him because he wanted him to make that decision. So the Dream Team is here to stay now and forever. The team celebrates with a song, “That’s what friends are for.”

It’s revealed that Razor’s real name is Gabriel. The team takes it well and doesn’t make fun of it, except for Mech.

Halloween special: Halloween marks the Yinari’s annual fear harvest and Mesdrenon of fear devises a scheme to gather all the fears of the team’s hometown and bring them to life which will lead the Dream Team to their doom. He builds a haunted house made to look like an attraction. But when people enter inside, the house brings people’s fears to life, which collects all their screams containing their fears. Has a legion of Phobiavores, fear-eaters. “Admit that you fear us,” Cyber says to Mesdrenon.

Christmas special: learn the truth about Santa Claus. Santa Claus was originally a Yangari warrior created by Shalua of Happiness to spark happiness in children’s hearts with toys and merry and his spirit was the one who influenced kid’s parents to always make their Christmas’s a holly jolly one every year with perfect gifts and warm loving. However, Grobstopher of Greed was the one who invented commercialism Christmas, Christmas in July and getting toys and whatnot to plant seeds of cold, hard greed and selfishness into children in order to spread misery throughout Christmas while raising lots of

16


money. Christmas is revealed to be a battle between cheer and commercialism. “All of Christmas shall be mine!”

(Season 2): The team is trying to adjust to their new lives now that the whole world knows their identities. School time is filled with crowds of student fans including the teachers. Everyone in their town was singing “Good morning Dream Team.” Ever since they defeated the Yinari, they can’t even have quiet time. Their parents keep getting fan calls. Then Rianus appeared and informed the team that he feels the Yinari’s presence. It’s very faint but it won’t be very long. The team was really aggravated that they’ll have to do last season all over again. But Rianus suggests a different approach; he sends them on a quest to search for fragments of an ancient Yangari artifact. With it they can bring the Yinari to an end by banishing them to another dimension far away from their own. The Yangari were first constructing it in the past but it was destroyed in an attack and presumed gone forever, but there have been reports of fragments appearing all over the world. Cameron and Gina are delighted that they get to go on a world tour, but Razor says he hates traveling, especially on a mega-long and mega-boring airplane. But Rianus provides the team with a new mode of transportation, The Dream Team Omnicarrier, their own personal travel plane. Their mission is to travel to each major country and meet up with the rulers and ask them about their most ancient artifacts they have so they can find out which of them could be one of the fragments. Unbeknownst to them, Darxus and the Yinari aren't totally gone, but in a crippled state. Although their hearts have been shattered, all the fragments have been collected and reconstructed together using Cyber's technology. The Yinari have stolen Cyberman’s technology along with his powers to upgrade their race to a whole new level. Have been re-dubbed as “Cyber-Yinari”. “If you can’t beat ‘em, join ‘em,” Darxus says. Evil just got upgraded, yin 2.0.

Their first stop is China, where both the Yangari and Yinari first made contact with the humans. The Yangari were the first to reveal themselves to the humans. They wanted to introduce their teachings to them because they thought that would make the humans more bonded with them. Unfortunately, The Yinari also appeared to the humans and gathered some followers of their own teachings. The humans under their influence launched an attack against the Yangari and their followers. The two human factions fought a terrible battle that wiped themselves out. The Yangari were most saddened by this outcome that they declared that the human race must never know about their existence. And so the memory of the Yangari and Yinari passed into the obscurity of Chinese legend. When the team lands in Beijing, the capital, they greet with the president and ask him for China’s most ancient artifacts. He suggests they go to one of China’s oldest archaeological sites.

Darxus, now a cyborg with deadly cybernetic features tracks the team in China. He guesses they are searching for the fragments. He decides to pay his respects to an old “friend” of his. He appears by an ancient forgotten grave with the seal of the Yangari on it. He performs a spell that breaks the seal. From within the grave comes a huge blaze of fire and within it comes a dark figure. The figure is revealed to be a dark armored knight just like Black except a female. She awakens and snarls while looking at her surroundings. When she spots Darxus, she calms down and kneels before him. “My lord,” she says. Darxus addresses her as The Shu-Yi, the very first Yinari warrior and the one who lead their armies against their sappy opponents. She responds to him in reverence that she has been sealed away for many, many years but has not given up her loyalty towards him and the forces he commands. She asks him about his appearance and he responds he has gotten in touch with the times. He tells her that the war has still raged on after her defeat but is about to end now. He informs her that there is a new team of Yangari warriors waiting to be crushed by her undying wrath. She agrees and sets out to locate the team.

The team was busy studying the ancient sites. Cameron and Gina spot ancient pictures on the stone slabs and guessed that they’re Rianus and Darxus at war with each other. “Was Darxus always that

17


crazy-looking?” Cameron asked. Razor is immediately bored, then something caught his eye, he spotted a dark, evil looking figure in one of the pictures leading an army of dark, evil looking soldiers. He thought could that be himself? “Hey,” he called to his friends. They all take a look at the person. They were all wondering why that figure looks so familiar. “Because that could be the Black Death’s ancestor?” Tech asked. “No, because he’s standing right behind us!” Mech replied. “Really, Mech you need a little…” They all turn around and see the exact figure from the slab right behind them. She says, “So you are the Yangari warriors of this present, I expected an elite troop of fine masters of light and truth but lo, I find a bunch of scrawny adolescents.” “Why do they always call us that?” Razor asks. “I think what we got here is a female Black Death,” Cameron said. “What? She looks nothing like me!” Razor exclaimed. “The little filthy one is right,” the Yinari said. “I am the crown princess of the dark, the mistress of chaos; fear me for I am, The Shu-Yi.” “Shooie?” Razor said. “What kind of stupid, lame-o name is that?” “It seems I have encountered a bunch of dimwitted, scrawny adolescents as well.” “Them’s fightin’ words,” Mech said. “You took the words right out of my mouth,” Cameron agreed. “I’ll have you know that you aren’t dealing with any Yangaris, for we have been carefully chosen to defend the world from you sick, sulking, psychopaths. Our name is known throughout the four corners of the world which is The Dream Team!” The Shu-Yi laughs at their name. “In all my encounters I have never faced a bunch of dimwitted, scrawny adolescents with a childish fantasy complex.” “That’s it, it’s go time,” Razor said. “Hold up there,” Cameron said. “I’m the leader; it ain’t go time til I say it’s go time…okay now it’s go time.” The team recites their magic words, “Cyber-tize!” “G-tastic!” “Whatever.” In a flash of light, three ordinary teens are transformed into the world famous Dream Team. The Shu-Yi looks at them still unimpressed. “You may look adequate, but let us see how you fare against my unmatched fighting style.” She starts the fight and the team tries to dodge her while striking her but their punches have no effect on her. “Ow, she’s like a brick wall,” Cyber said. Black decides to face her by himself. “Hey spikes, this planet ain’t big enough for two heavily armored dark warriors.” She spots Black and looks confused. “You bear the mark and abilities of our kind, why are you with these weaklings?” Shu-Yi asked. “Let’s just say your boss and I had some disagreements with our partnership,” Black answers. “It is not possible for a Yinari such as yourself to betray his birthright. Return to our side where you belong.” “Nah, I’ve been there, it sucked.” “I am warning you, you are committing high treason to the whole race.” “Your whole race can bite themselves while dancing the hokey pokey in a boiling volcano!” “So be it, any friend of the yang is an enemy of the yin.” “You sound like you’ve been holed up for a bazillion years.” Black’s sword appears in his hand and fends her off, but in her hand appears a Chinese changdao. They both clash their swords against each other, but Shu-Yi is more cunning and swift and knocks Black’s sword out of his grip. Black was shocked that he was actually beaten by a warrior like himself. Shu-Yi holds the tip of her blade in front of Black’s face, then retracts it and says, “What a waste of my valuable time, it seems the Yangari really have grown old and weak. You are not even worth being crushed into oblivion by my undying wrath.” “Hey, I’m still standing here! Get back here and fight!” But she ignores him. This made Black so steamed that he went after her but she knocks him into the ground. Black lays face-first in the ground all totaled and clobbered. Before she leaves, she says, “Don’t ever try to challenge me again if you value your worthless lives. For we, The Yinari shall finish what we started a millennia ago, and if anyone else tries to hinder us, they will not be as fortunate as you.” She then disappears in a cloud of black fire. The team was astounded by her power. Cameron picks Razor up but he pushes him away still ticked off by her. “Well guys,” Cameron announced. “We got a new rival on our turf, the Shu-Yi.” “It’s like fighting Black, only with an iron bra,” Gina comments. “If I may, sir,” Tech asked. “I am fluent in many languages including Chinese and I happen to know what Shu-Yi means translated. Coincidently, Shu-Yi indeed means Black Death in Chinese.” “Nothing’s a coincidence,” responds Cameron. “Yeah, well this ain’t the end,” Razor says. “Just because she’s related to me changes nothing. I’m the one and only Black Death in this whole universe, and I’ll be back in action, and when I do, I’m gonna kick her metal tush all across The Great Wall.”

Afterwards, the Shu-Yi returns to Darxus. “How’d it go?” he asks. “They were mere infants compared to me.” “Yes, well don’t underestimate them now. Whenever they fall down, they always rebound back at us with new powers and attacks. So this time, I have devised a brand new scheme to bring those goody-two-shoes under my thumb.” Darxus tells her that the Dream Team is a bunch of happy-go-lucky nuts that never suspect anything with a smiling face, so he orders her to beat them at their own game. She then has an idea, she plans to disguise herself as a Chinese girl to befriend the team, listen in on their plans and learn their weaknesses so she’ll strike when they least expect it. The team was still bewildered by their first encounter with the Shu-Yi. They soon decide to continue their search for the first fragment, but there are a million ancient relics and any one of them could be it. “How are we gonna find it through all this junk?” Suddenly a girl appears next to them. “I know how! I am an expert in ancient Chinese archaeology. I can point you in the right direction absolutely.” “And you are?” “Oh, my name is Xion. I have been watching you and have decided that you might need someone as resourceful as me.” She smiles again and again to gain their trust. “Ooookay, we could use a helping hand, won’t we?” The team had no comment. “Good. I knew you would be reasonable.” Cameron says Xion’s a weird name for her. She mentions that it’s a name that hasn’t been used in a thousand years; nobody else has a name like that. Razor was staring at her in awe like he just got hit by Cupid’s love bomb. He goes up to her and says she has the most beautiful ebony hair he’s ever seen. She didn’t respond, she just smiled and said, “Right, so do you,” then walks away. Razor thought she responded to his pick-up line. Everything was going according to Shu-Yi’s scheme but what she didn’t expect was Razor being attracted to her.

So later on, the team continues investigating with Xion’s “help”, but what they don’t know is the Shu-Yi is leading them nowhere while trying to pry information from them. Meanwhile, Razor continues to fawn over Xion but while she tries to resist him, she suddenly starts to fall for him too. She made a vow to abandon all love when she first became a Yinari a thousand years ago. About a millennia ago, during the time of the first Yin/Yang War, she remembers her old life living with mean, strict parents. Her own village was under the allegiance of the Yinari but Xion was the only one who disagreed with them because she didn’t like their teachings. That caused everybody to disrespect and shun her. She ran to a stream crying, while she cried she began having thoughts of hatred towards everyone. Darxus heard her thoughts and appeared to her. He tells her he can grant her heart’s desire if she swears to be his sole warrior. She agrees. He then held out his hand urging her to shake it. When she touched it he gripped her hand infusing all his dark powers into her, which made her his first warrior. “That puny village seems like a perfect target to try out the new you,” he told her. She took her revenge on her village and parents and afterwards led Darxus’ armies against the Yangari. But in the end, she was sealed away by the group of original Yangari warriors.

Razor hates the Shu-Yi all the while not knowing that she’s Xion. He curses the Shu-Yi and calls her names, but Xion tells Razor not to antagonize her, secretly because she was listening to him and was getting ticked.

The team tries to uncover the Shu-Yi’s origin. What they can learn so far from the ancient records of the ruins of the thousand-year-old village is a thousand years ago, there was a girl who was an outcast that disappeared from this village and after that the Shu-Yi appeared and destroyed the same village. Cameron couldn’t think that was purely coincidental, unless the girl and the Shu-Yi are one of the same. Xion was overlooking their investigation and refused to let them find out who she is, so while they weren’t looking, she destroys the part on the ancient records that tell about her own name and life. Since the team realizes none of the records tell more about this girl, Cameron decides to call Rianus for guidance. Rianus tells them that he remembers the chaos and destruction the Shu-Yi brought a thousand

19


years ago. But he never could figure out her identity before she was sealed. He tells the team to search for an ancient, hidden site called The Cavern of Souls, which is said to house the souls of the victims of both the Yangari and Yinari; maybe there they’ll find the answers they seek. Mech wasn’t really hip about finding a cave filled with ghosts. Cameron and Gina agree to search for the cavern themselves while Razor stays behind and faces off against Shu-Yi for a final showdown. Darxus appears to Xion and asks her why she’s developing passionate feelings towards Razor. She deliberately denies it. Darxus decides that to make sure she isn’t, he wants her to put the Black Death out of his misery, forever, she obeys.

When Cameron and Gina discover the cavern, they come face to face with a small Chinese terra cotta warrior in front of the entrance. When they try to pass it, it suddenly sticks out its sword and trips Cameron. The warrior came to life! He says he is the guardian of the Cavern of Souls which is sacred to all outsiders who should keep out. The two try to convince him that they’re Yangari warriors who need to enter the cavern to speak with the souls of the dead, but the guardian says, “Yeah right, and my mother’s Mao Zedong’s great, great, great, great, great, auntie.” “Really?” “No, you nitwit! And I’m not letting anybody through anyhow.” Cameron insists on passing but the idol says that he’ll have to defeat him in battle. Cameron doesn’t want to fight, the idol asks him, “Why, because you’re too weak and wimpy?” He replies, “No because your shoe’s untied.” The idol looks down at his feet and before he realizes he has no shoes, Cameron and Gina sneak past him. “Wha- hey! You cheated!” He is now so upset that he spent thousands of years guarding the entrance to the stupid cave only to be duped by two kids. He explains that Rianus created him for that one purpose and now that he failed, he has nothing to exist for. He breaks into a song that explains a guardian’s life is a lonely and meaningless life. Cameron feels sorry for the little idol that he asks him that he could tag along with them. He asks why he should because he doesn’t believe they’re what they say they are. They both show him the seal of the Yangari, he is quickly convinced and kowtows before them. Cameron then asks what his name is, he replies Rianus never gave him a name, he thinks Rianus is so busy with his own problems that he doesn’t even care about him. Cameron then decides to call him Mosaic, since he’s an artistic Chinese sculpture.

When the three reach the inner sanctum of the cavern, they suddenly become surrounded with ghosts and spirits trying to frighten them away. The two try to be brave and say that they are Yangari who have come to seek truth about a Yinari known as the Shu-Yi. All the spirits stop and cower in fear at the sound of the name because most of them are victims of her. They all disappear but two souls remain and ask how they know about her. The two teens tell them how and why it’s important to know the truth. The two souls then reveal that they’re the parents of the outcast girl. After the team listens to their story about their death, the mother mentions she is so sorry for their little Xion. “Yeah, I hope she’s… WHOA, WHOA, WHOA, HOLD THE PHONE!!!” Cameron shouted in surprise. “Xion, as in, our Xion!?” He remembers that Xion is a thousand-year old name and no one else has it today. He puts an equation in his head, “Xion = outcast girl = SHU-YI!” The team is shocked to discover that Xion and the Shu-Yi are the same.

Meanwhile Black Death and Shu-Yi duke it out with each other. “Well if it isn’t the black failure filling in for those two idiotic saps.” “Eat it, iron hag! You won’t be so high and mighty once I mail your big mouth to your foot!” “You always talk tough whenever you’re afraid. That’s right, I know all about you, I know the one thing you fear more than all of the Yinari is yourself. There is a creature trapped within you that only comes out whenever your hatred towards every living thing is unleashed. And when he appears, he won’t rest until he’s killed all in his sights, including his loved ones, his best friends and loving family.” Black was getting so ticked at listening to her that his armor started breaking and the skies were getting dark. “So you see, no matter how many friends you make, how hard you try to act nice

20


and pure, you’ll always be a bloodthirsty, murderous, psychotic tool of destruction. And then you’ll get mean too…blackie.” “RAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAUUUUUUUUUUUUUGGGGGGGGGGGHHHHHHHHHRRRRR!!!!!” At the mere mention of that word, The Black Death erupts in a blast of hate and rage and in his place stands the man-dragon behemoth that is he. “Nice reaction,” the Shu-Yi said unflinched by him. “However, the main difference between me and you is that while you fear your inner hatred and fury,” Her body then radiates with dark energy. “I embrace my own.” Suddenly, her armor breaks apart and in a blast of dark fire, the Shu-Yi reveals she has a beast underneath her armor too, a Chinese dragon. The two dragons rumbled ferociously. Black swings his massive fist at her while Shu-Yi evades him and lashes her tail. They both have massive fiery breath in which they shot at each other. At the very moment when Black was about to deal a fatal strike, Cameron and Gina arrive and beg him to stop.

Black was aggravated at them bugging him in the middle of a fight. He tries to keep in his anger and reverts back. “Guys, what have I told you about bothering me while I’m rampaging?” “But you don’t know who exactly you’re fighting.” “I know dang well who, this creepy, stinkin’ Black Death copycat, the one who wants to chop off our heads and stick ‘em over her door.” “This may come as a shock to you, but The Shu-Yi, our toughest foe yet, is none other than our new friend, Xion.” “Say what!” Black shouted in alarm. Then he chuckles and says, “You know guys, sometimes your jokes are a little morbid and weird.” “We’re not kidding, that’s our amigo you’re beating up.” “Now cut that out! There’s a big difference between those two, Xion’s kind, beautiful, and hot, and The Shu-Yi’s cruel, stupid, and psycho!” Shu-Yi then said, “Oh get over it already, you couldn’t possibly think that we’re the same?” She reverts to Xion and Razor was shocked that he was fighting his own girlfriend. “It’s a nightmare! PUNCH! Gotta be a nightmare! PUNCH” he says while punching himself. “Well done figuring it out, you may be stupid but it looks like you’re not dumb.” “No, no, no, please no.” Razor asks her how she could even think about destroying her own friends and lover, she replies who could ever love a stupid demon reject like him. For the first time in a while, Razor was heartbroken. “Don’t think our friendship together has changed anything, I always hated your lame, awful jokes,” she said to Cameron. “And you,” she said to Gina. “Red hair and pink bikinis makes you look colorblind.”

She then continues attacking them. But Cameron tries to convince her that this isn’t what she is. She says she is a natural-born Yinari created to serve under lord Darxus. He tells her they met the spirits of her parents and they told them everything. She then says they couldn’t stay dead after she killed them a thousand years ago. But Cameron tells her she’s wrong, she never did kill them. She then stops and says she distinctly remembers doing it herself. He then reveals to her that they learned from Xion’s parents that in the past, when she was about to strike her parents, they apologized to her for all the harshness they did to her. Xion’s hate and rage then disappeared and realized they were sorry. She changed back and was about to apologize herself, but Darxus appeared and ordered her to continue her rampage. She refused which caused him to kill her parents. Xion was traumatized but Darxus altered her memory making her think she did that, which brought her under his complete influence. Shu-Yi was shocked at the story but as she was about to realize the truth, her mind counteracted the realization due to her being under Darxus’ influence and refused to believe any it, so she continued fighting them. Cyber tries to figure out why she’s not listening to reason. He then realized it must be Darxus’ influence.

The team was getting pummeled by her. Razor still couldn’t get over the idea that his own lover is their greatest enemy. After defeating them twice over, Shu-Yi stops and looks at them in disgust. “No wonder why you nice guys finish last, you’re always so dimwitted and easy to dupe.” Then Cyber gets up says, “You’re wrong, heroes are never stupid or weak. No matter how hard you beat us, how much pain you inflict on us, as long as we have our reason to keep on living, we always rise up from the ashes of defeat and bring evil a signed, sealed, and delivered avalanche of justice! Our souls of truth will always

shine through the darkest night and the roughest storm.” “Hmph,” she said unimpressed. “See if your souls can shine through this!” She then launches a dark fireball towards them when suddenly Mosaic steps in and shields them. He then falls damaged by the blast. He explains that Cyber’s speech has shown him the purpose of his existence he has longed to find out. He is slowly dying in Cyber’s arms but Cyber tells him not to die. He asks, “Why, because I am what you call your best friend?” He replies, “No because you haven’t told me the secret of your awesome moves.” He laughs sickly. Cyber holds on to him praying for him to live. Then suddenly there’s a beep on Cyber’s upgrade screen. “Oh, not now.” He opens it and sees a new upgrade. It says “RR&R: Resurrection, Revival, and Renewal.” Cyber realizes his prayers have been answered and presses it. From Cyber’s screen comes a beam of light that shone on Mosaic. While it covered him light, his cracked stone body transforms into circuits and machinery and ends with shiny cybernetic armor with Cyber’s insignia. He opens his eyes and says, “I have been reborn, I, Mosaic, am now and forever known as…” “Mozayech!!” Cyber interrupts. "Gah, you ruined my big revival speech!” he said annoyed. “Well I had to give you the right name before you called yourself something lame.” “But Mozayech isn’t even a word.” “It matches my other sidekicks.” “Anyway, your technology has given me the will to continue carrying out my purpose: to defend all that is right and pure and to drive the forces of darkness back to whence they came. Dream Team, you will no longer bear the weight of defeat any longer, for I bring to you a new gift, a gift that will bring your might and power to the next level.” He then gives each of the team three new devices. “With these devices, you only need to call upon special capes of unimaginable power, with them there is nothing you cannot hope to exceed.” Cyber and the team look at each other and agree to do it. They all press the buttons on their new devices and then three capes appear in front of them. They each grab them and tie them on their backs, which causes their bodies to change. Cyber looks like a completely new and upgraded version of himself, so does G and Black. Mozayech has granted the team the power to become “The Supreme Dream Team,” advanced versions of themselves with capes.

The team was doing their usual oohs and ahhs whenever they get new powers but Shu-Yi says, “The fancy new bed sheets won’t help you.” She strikes back with more dark flames but Cyber blocked them like ping pong balls. She continues but the team blocks her every move. With their new powers, they manage to deal some damage to her. The team pools all their energy into one final strike which pulverizes her to the ground. “Xion, you will no longer be a slave to the dark side any longer,” Cyber exclaims. Defeated and exhausted, she reverts back to Xion but still refuses to believe what they said. She was so aggravated at them. “I discarded that idiotic, useless name ages ago. No matter how powerful you become, how hard you beat me, I am hatred and chaos unlimited!” “Oh give it a rest already.” Darxus then appears to her and is disappointed in her failing him, twice. He admits the truth that he killed her parents and forced her to be his puppet. “What? But master…” Xion was shocked at this discovery which causes all her memories to flood back. Darxus tosses her aside. “You’re just old hat.” The team is startled at Darxus’ new look. “What happened to him?” Mech asked. “He just got a major mechanical makeover.” He explains that he is now part-Yinari, part-machine, all same old evil. He decides to introduce the first of his new line of Cyber-Yinari. It was similar to the normal homunculi they usually face except it’s made of robotic junk.

The team decides it’s time to go giga. Cyber wondered what new surprises await once the Supreme Dream Team goes giga. GigaMech and GigaTech combine with Cyber to make Cyberman Giga Mode. And after that, shiny new armor along with a giant version of his cape appeared on him. The same happened to Giga G and Black as well. The Team once again oohed and ahhed. They attack the cyber-homunculi with advanced, light speed quick moves. The team decides to finish it off with a new and improved finale, “The Supreme Dream Team Beam.” Later when they caught up with Xion, she breaks

22


down not knowing anything anymore. Razor comes to her and tells her that she’s just like him and the only way she can find her purpose is to join their band of dreamers. But she says she murdered thousands of lives and is nothing but a twisted, corrupted, sinner. Razor says that’s exactly what he said then Cyber came to him and brought him in to his gang, so Razor has decided to do the same. He then picks her up and kisses her, she tries to resist but then embraces her arms around him. Razor asks her if she loves him totally and will follow him wherever he goes. She says yes. “You know something else? Aside from all those beatings I took from you, you really make one wicked, flame-totin’, dark-bending, bad-to-the-bone momma. I like that in a gal.” So for the first time, The Dream Team has now become four. “We’re gonna need a bigger title sequence,” says Cameron. But they remember that they still haven’t found the first fragment. Mozayech says that they’re standing next to one, himself. He also says that he’s built in with a detector that can locate other fragments. “I knew you had a purpose somewhere,” Cameron said. When they were about to leave China, the team calls back to their parents at home and tells them they found more than just the first fragment, they found a new friend but Razor says he found his match. He mentions that Xion’s his fiancé. Gina is a little disappointed that they’re betrothed before she and Cameron are. “Hey, what about me!?” Mozayech exclaimed. “It’s like they don’t even notice me.” “Welcome to our world,” Mech and Tech said.

Gina and Razor get sidekicks of their own. Gina-fairies. Razor-little demons.

The love song Razor and Xion share is Timbaland’s “The Way I are.” “Livin’ on a prayer.”

Razor and Xion together are like two dragons intertwined with each other. Xion is shy, insecure and loves Razor so much she worships him like a real prince calling him master, your darkness-ness, and my prince, and Razor tells her, “Hail to the prince.” Since she has been imprisoned for a thousand years, she is a living fossil who’s very antique minded and curious and doesn’t understand today’s technologies and cultures. She’s very terrified of technology. She’s never even heard of other countries or that the world is round.

Meet their predecessors

The team lands in London, England. Xion is overwhelmed by all the tall buildings and traffic filled with cars. The team heads towards parliament and meet the prime minister to ask what ancient doohickeys they got. They mention that they left all the exclusive artifacts locked up in the basement underneath parliament. But when they reach the restricted section, they find that the spot where the most ancient artifact is supposed to be kept is empty. The chairmen remember that they gave it away as a gift to one of England’s greatest heroes ever a long time ago. They have no idea where he is now but they do know that he and the queen were very close, maybe the team should ask her. So the team heads to Buckingham Palace to consult her majesty the queen herself. When they ask her about England’s greatest hero and the artifact, her face fills with depression and sorrow. But she snaps out of it and tells them that he did a great service to their country during the Second World War that he was awarded the highest honor in the British army, a trophy with a very rare ancient mineral embedded in it. But after the war, he grew more apart from the army and parliament after he retired. So the last time she saw him, he mentioned about moving far away to the outskirts of any civilized city in England. The team asks Mozayech to track down the fragment, if they find the fragment, they might find this particular hero. He found a trace of its signature leading far away from London. The team tries to figure out how to get all the way over there since cabs and buses don’t run that far. Cameron reminds everyone that he’s an all-purpose vehicle. He changes into Cyber and scans a motorbike with a sidecar then cyber-shifts into a copy of it, only with two sidecars. He urges everyone to get onboard while the gettin’s good. Gina climbs

23


onto Cyber while Razor and Xion step in the two sidecars. The team drives for miles and miles far away from London, Cardiff, and Liverpool.

When they finally reach where the beacon is taking them, they find themselves by a broken down old shack in the middle of the southern English forest. They asked Mosaech where he’d taken them, he said it’s the tracker not him. “This doesn’t look like a home where a war hero would retire to,” Cameron says. From the old shack, a person watches the team outside on the lawn. Cameron knocks on the door, but the door opens by itself and they step inside. The inside of the house looked messy and filthy like the master of the house doesn’t do any cleaning. On the walls were rusty, broken clocks dating back many years. “This war hero lives like a pig,” Xion comments. “Maybe because he is one,” Razor adds. “I HEARD THAT, YA SCURVEY TRESSPASSIN’ LITTLE YOUTH YOBBOS!!!” They shockingly turn around and see a crotchety old man somewhere in his 80’s staring at them angrily. Cameron tries to apologize. “Oh, you startled us…” “Aye, an’ that’s not all I’ll do unless ya git offa me property ‘afore I give y’all a whippin’ with me iron stick!!” He swings his iron walking stick at them. “Whoa, steady on. We were just looking for some famous war veteran around these parts. You wouldn’t happen to know anything about that?” “Veteran!? There be nothin’ o’ the likes o’ that anywhere and never were! Now be off with ye!” The team was backing off when Cameron caught a glimpse of his stick. When they were kicked out, Razor wanted to give that cranky old geezer a piece of his mind and his fists. But Cameron tells them that he’s no ordinary old man, he saw on his stick decorative markings that looked like it belonged to the British army. “I think we found our man.” Cameron walks back into his shack which irritates the old man even more. Cameron tells him that they are Yangari searching for the fragments. “I have no idea what ye be blabberin’ about,” he said. Cameron asks him that the whole world knows about the team but why not him. He replies he doesn’t own a TV so he never listens to the news. Cameron knows he’s the retired hero but the old man still denies what he’s saying. Cameron then asks him about the bronze trophy he was awarded with and that they need it. “It wasn’t bronze, it was gilded, ya great ninny!” “Aha! So you are him.” “Aw, fiddleflossers!” Cameron asks him why he was lying; he replies he put all of his past way behind him. Cameron wanted to know why he retired and hid himself away from the world. “That be none of your business, ya little nosy aardvark. Now leave an old decrepit codger be.” “All right, fine. Maybe we all heard wrong, maybe England’s greatest hero ever never did exist, as it turns out he’s really just a lazy, grumpy, filthy, old fart who can’t afford cable TV.” Darxus spots the team and sends down a squadron of cyber-yinari soldiers. Cameron then hears noises outside. Yinaris have found them. “If you don’t believe us, allow us to rectify your skepticism.” The team transforms and combats the soldiers. The old man couldn’t believe his eyes, it’s as if he felt something deep down himself that hasn’t been felt for 70 years. When the team stopped, they turn to the old man and he says, “Jumpin’ jiminy jehosephat! You are still around!” “So you do know us.” “Aye, I thought your lot and the other lot destroyed each other 70 years ago.” “How do you know about them?” The old man looks at the team with regret.

“I think it be best if I told you all about me teenage years.” He decides to tell them all he knows. “First of all, me name’s Alistair Devonshire. The reason why I know about your lot is because I used to work for one of ‘em. Donkey’s years ago ‘afore the cursed dreaded war, I was a spry, happy young sot just about yer age. Back then I never liked fightin’, I spent all me life workin’ in me parents clock shop greasin’ the gears, sweepin’ the signs. Aye I loved them intricate little marvels what with them many little cogs and mechanized dolls that dance every hour. I hoped one day I would make the bestest most indefatigable clockwork masterpiece our family could devise. At times when I wasn’t workin’, I had a

24


barrel o’ laughs that I used to make me mates spew rum outta their noses by ticklin’ their funny bones. Outta all the beautiful veritable lasses in me flat, not one of ‘em compared to the brightest, most regal English flower in all London town, Miss Elizabeth Alexandra Mary. ‘Afore her coronation, I used to sneak into her exclusive quarters in Buckingham, I showed her all me wacky antics and prodigious charm. I vowed to make her mine despite the royal heritage fencin’ me out. She just smiled every time I go on about what I’d do if I were the king o’ England and how I’d turn the whole UK topsy turvy.

But ‘afore I could send her away with me, war broke out. The Germans were upon us blitzin’ the dickens outta our nation. Me darlin’ was so distressed about the mayhem that she was too busy with her family’s safety an’ wouldna’ let me in. Her folks soon escorted her to safer grounds far away from me. I tell ya, I was gettin’ a mighty bit panicked. Them British generals were pluckin’ out men left and right to draft ‘em into the army. I kept meself ‘idden from ‘em because I dinna want to waste me life in a dirty battlefield. But I also didn’t want me darlin’ to live in a desolate, maniacal state run by them German heathens either. I thought to meself I’d do anythin’ to save her an’ me ‘omeland but I just dinna know what. Then right after I thought that thought, a bloomin’ flash o’ light whooshed right in front o’ me. T’was the hallowed father of the ancient eternal Yangari race, Rianus the first, well the only actually. He came to me an’ said he has heard me vow and offered me a draft into his own little private army. At first I thought he was pullin’ me leg, but one look at the magic he conjured up right before me eyes made me realize I wasn’t hittin’ the bottle hard. He knew I wanted the power to save me country but mostly me Elizabeth from the dark forces of the Axis Powers, so he decided to grant me a magical gift. Because of me love for clocks, I had the power to become one meself, a mechanical, clockwork knight automated by thousands o’ gears, fueled by steam an’ coal, and with the strength of Big Ben himself. I have become Gyroman, the king o’ carefully crafted clockwork contraptions.

Me first assignment he gave me was to enter the British army and say that I’m an expert truck driver. While I was in, I stuck with every major mission the army was set out to do. I drove the squad to our destinations and while they left me by the truck, I secretly changed into me special self and gave them Germans a major beat down so sudden that they dinna know what hit ‘em. The army witnessed me and wanted me to join their cause, but I told ‘em I’m already part o’ their cause but I only assist whenever the odds are against ‘em. So over the war years, whenever our nation’s soldiers were fallin’ in battle, I stepped in and evened the odds. When we went deeper into enemy territory, I began to realize somethin’ terribly odd. While the deranged dictator of Germany, Der Fuhrer himself, was rantin’ an’ ravin’, I felt a thumpin’ dark an’ devilish presence emanatin’ from him. The good king Rianus told me he was bein’ manipulated by the most scurviest, peachiest, uncouthiest lord that goes beyond any dictator, Darxus the Terrible himself. Due to me foolhardy nature, I saw this as me chance to end the whole war once and for all by takin’ out the monster behind the man. Rianus warned me not to, but I didn’t listen. I headed towards Berlin and snuck into the capital building. Once inside, I tried to track down where the lord o’ hate was hidin’. When suddenly, Der Fuhrer and a massive fleet o’ German soldiers stormed in right in front o’ me. I demanded to see the head but the fuhrer said I’m lookin’ at him. He apparently had no idea he was bein’ used. After I insisted on seein’ the real mastermind, a huge blaze o’ flames burst in front o’ me.

Next thing I knew, I found meself on the surface of a horrid, distorted world totally unlike earth. Darxus himself brought me there at me request to have an audience with him. I challenged him to a showdown but he warned me to reconsider. But also due to me plumb haughty foolhardy nature, I decided to bash first, reconsider later. Unfortunately, me power punches weren’t so powerful towards him as he tossed me like a highland games caber. I tried a different approach, I gathered all the firepower deep within me an’ unleashed a flame brigade unto him but he simply swallowed it whole like a figgy pudding flambé. I was naught but a mere miniscule meat pie towards him. Was there nuthin’ that

25


could dent this cold, hard devil? That’s when I remembered what Rianus told me, “What makes a true hero doesn’t depend on his mighty strength but his devotion and will to defend all that he cares and loves.” So what I did was announce to him that I will not rest until me ‘ome is safe from your maniacal, murderin’ minions an’ me darlin’ won’t have to cower in fear at your ugly mugs. Once I finished me monologue, I felt a great, thumpin’ deep inside meself. Because of me devotion, I had just enough strength for a high-charged flamin’ rapier thrust. I focused all me might, heart, an’ soul into me blade, and lunged meself towards the blackguard’s black heart. With one final blow, I slashed the lord of the dark in two, in which he dissolved into a whiff o’ smoke and a pile o’ parrot droppings.

I made me way back to me troop and reported that Gyroman has turned the tide to our side. But Rianus soon spoiled me excitement by warning me that Darxus had literally pulled himself together after me finest hour. That was why Rianus tried to stop me. I fell into a slump depressed that it’s impossible to end this war what with his rottenness usin’ his bonkersness and runnin’ the whole show. Rianus then told me the one way to bring a decisive victory for our country, he told me to encourage me squad to write a letter and send it to the war office via carrier pigeon, so I did. What happened was the whole army set out for Normandy and clobbered them Germans like tenpin bowlin’ pins. That battle became known as D-Day which led to Germany’s surrender.

With me country saved, I finally came home to me family, but mostly to be reunited with me darlin’ Elizabeth. I was goin’ to sneak in as usual but I was told that me regiment including meself was granted an audience with the royal family. We all gathered to be greeted by ‘em. When Elizabeth appeared, she spotted me in the troop. Our commander told them that the true hero of the whole war was the enigmatic Gyroman. He also said that if only he were here now, he would be given the highest honor in the army. Afterwards, I met up with Elizabeth, she had no idea I went to war. I told her now that all our troubles are over, we can finally escape together. But she told me that I didn’t do anythin’ to help win the war since I was just a driver, she was only interested in Gyroman, the real hero. I was appalled, just because he’s a hero makes me a piece o’ lint? I decided to tell her me secret; I said that me and Gyroman were never together at the same time, I asked her why. She wasn’t interested in a response, but when she turned around, I changed in a blaze o’ flames into the other me. She was so shocked she almost fainted. She felt like she just saw magic, and was right. I explained to her about how I got me gift, how I was the one helpin’ our army, and how I single-handedly led our country to victory. She saw me in a different light. She knew how much I cared for her and our home. We embraced and right before we kissed for the first time, she stopped and said there’s another reason why we can’t be together. I thought there was another she loves, but she said she has just been betrothed to the crown itself. She is to be crowned queen born of England at a future date. I was severely devastated for if she becomes the once and future queen, she would be sworn to it forever, and I would be naught but one of the common surplus population. She asked if we could still be friends but I was too disappointed to answer. Later, I reluctantly showed meself to everyone as Gyroman to earn the “highest honor” in the army, a wretched trophy with a filthy old rainbow-colored gem stuck on it. It was nothin’ but a worthless consolation prize to me.

So in the end, all me efforts, me hopes an’ dreams, were all wasted. The only lass I ever did love betrayed me, her duty outweighed our love. At that point, all me happiness and mirth died instantly. The last time I saw her, she secretly came to me clock shop, our shop got blitzed during the blitz and our whole family had to go their separate ways earnin’ livin’s. She tried to apologize about everythin’ but I backed her off tellin’ her she can enjoy her reign o’ rubbish without me. For I’m goin’ away, far away from everythin’, London, the war, people, the whole lot. The last thing she told me was the only thing I’m

26


tryin’ to run away from is meself. But as usual, me nature prevented me from listenin’ to reason. So I walked, and I walked, past the cities, past the towns, past the villages, past everythin’. And here I be, 70 years later.”

The team was amazed and saddened by his tale. “But what happened to Gyroman?” Cameron asked. “Ach, he died ages ago. After the army noticed he disappeared, he soon became a forgotten memory. When I got as far away from those blitherin’ eejits, Rianus came to me and told me to reconsider but I told him to git and never show his or any of his lot’s faces near me again. Besides, Gyroman was just a wasted dream anyway.” “Dreams are never wasted,” Cameron responded. “Don’t you see guys? We’re not the first Yangari warriors after all. I just met my own predecessor.” “You’re missin’ the point,” Alistair said. “The reason why I’m tellin’ ya me tale is because I’m savin’ ya from a wasted life. I had high hopes that with me powers I could do anythin’, even marry the queen’s daughter, but I never did. So Rianus took me for a fool. That’s why I thought he and Darxus destroyed themselves along with their lots. So now I’m warnin’ ya, turn back while ya still can. You’re all better off livin’ normal, non-special lives.” “You got all wrong,” Cameron argued. “It wasn’t their fault you didn’t get want you wanted, you just gave up yourself.” But he still wouldn’t listen.

Cameron then asks him if he knows where the trophy he earned is, he doesn’t know or care. The team used Mozayech to track it through all his junk and underneath a pile was the trophy with the rainbow gem which was the fragment, but for some reason it wouldn’t shine and join with the rest of the fragments. The reason why is it’s went through a lifetime of misery and rejection that it’s lost its radiance of truth. They figure that it can only be reactivated by its owner, Alistair, but he’s in a cantankerous and miserable mood. Cameron decides to help him back on his feet by begging him to train him to be as awesome as he once was. Even if he wanted to, his gyro-tizing days are way behind him. He tries and in a blaze of fire but a puff of boiler smog, he changes into a shell of his former self. The once mighty Gyroman has gone to pot, his shining metal armor was aged with grit and rust, his gears were rusted shut, his fire core was weak, and his flame pipes were clogged with boiler sludge. But Cameron didn’t mind, so the two of them went through all of what Alistair knows. And soon enough, Alistair or Al as Cameron calls him was feeling 70 years younger.

Darxus oversees the team and recognizes his old foe. “Ah, I remember you, that puny British flame-throwing wind-up tin soldier.” He decides to order a fleet of Cyber-Yinari to attack London. The team arrives and finds they’ve invaded Buckingham Palace and are holding the royal family hostage. Darxus has a score to settle with Gyroman. The team tussles with the creeps when Darxus was about to threaten the queen’s life. Suddenly a hard steel steampunk automaton arrives. Darxus meets Gyroman after all these years. “I’m still chafing from those scorch marks you gave me,” he says. The two battle it out but Gyroman is still fatigued. But with Cyber’s help, he becomes restored to his former glory. His age withered away as the two of them face off against the latest Cyber-Yinari, a monstrosity based on old German war machinery from the war. “Achtung!” it said. “Alle begrüßen die dunkle, korrupt, ewig Yinari rennen!” “What he say?” Cyber asks. “Somethin’ about feedin’ sauerkraut to his mother’s yodelin’ zeppelin.” Gyro responds. “I flunked outta German.”

After Darxus retreats the team figures the one way to revive the fragment is to give Al the one thing he never earned. The team takes him before the queen, she recognizes her age old flame. When Al asks her if she never forgot about him, she shows him a picture frame holding the very rose he gave to her many years ago. He realizes she’s been thinking about him for years. Even though they’re both aged old codgers, she gives him the one thing he never earned from her, a kiss. After that, it’s as if all those lost years of happiness finally caught up with him. When Al touched his trophy, the fragment came back to life. By order of her majesty, she dubs Gyroman, the forgotten hero of the war, captain of her royal

27


guard. He thanks the team for reuniting him with his long lost love but he’s most grateful to Cameron for bringing him back on the path of hope and happiness. Before they left, Al bids everyone good luck on their quest around the world, and to never forget him and what makes him a true hero. Cameron and a young Al sing together a song comparing America and Britain, “Collision of worlds.”

The team’s next stop is Africa, largest continent in the world and home to many natural wonders. The team land in Kenya, there they head over to the capital Nairobi to scour over the many relics and treasures. Mozayech locates the fragment, it looks like an elephant model made out of ivory. But like the last one, it wouldn’t activate. The team figures that all the fragments in the world have been left dormant for so long they need to be reactivated in some way. They ask about the elephant, the museum curator mentions that 30 years ago, it is said to have belonged in the possession of Africa’s most greatest and mysterious vigilante. The team was curious about this person. They wanted to know more but he said she is just an African folk legend and isn’t interested in knowing about her. The team knew that that legendary figure could be their only lead to reactivating the fragment. “I beg to differ,” said a woman who suddenly appears and says that vigilante has a name, Mombasa Mirembe and is more than just a myth, she was a magnificent hero. The curator recognizes her and tells her she’s not getting her hands on that elephant idol this time no matter how many times she’s been asking for it. She introduces herself to the team as Dr. Adilah Adin, a wildlife reserve animal doctor who takes care of and keeps a close watch on all the animals of the savannah. She welcomes them to their beautiful continent and has heard all about the team and their greatest triumph over The Yinari. She couldn’t help overhearing them about wondering who this mysterious person is, she was a story that’s been told throughout many native African tribes and since Dr. Adin’s a native born, she’s an expert on the legend. The team decides to listen to her.

She tells them all about this legendary hero, the amazing feats she performed and the heroic deeds she committed. “Back in the mid-1980s, Africa was facing a major food crisis that spread through all of Ethiopia and threatened to spread through the entire continent. Because of it, people became so desperate for food that they resorted to poaching innocent animals. Then one night when a group of hunters were hunting down a herd of elephants, a baby elephant managed to escape from their clutches. The hunters noticed and tracked him down. They managed to corner the baby but at the very moment when they were inches away from him, they heard a cry from the distance. They looked and saw a mysterious figure in the distance staff in hand standing in the savannah in the moonlight. It was Mombasa Mirembe, the queen of the savannah, the wild avenger. She suddenly disappeared into the tall grass, the hunters were baffled then she suddenly attacked the poachers with quick hand and feet combat moves disabling their weapons. But they weren’t through yet, once they managed to corner her, she did the most unbelievable thing, she focused all of her might and before the hunters eyes her body grew up high into the sky. She became taller than a giraffe’s neck as her long shadow loomed over the frightened hunters. She stomped towards them as they tried to escape but she swung her massive hand and grabbed each one of them. She gazes upon her opponents as they cower in her grasp then swings her arm around and round then throws the hunters far far away like a baseball pitcher. The baby elephant was most grateful for saving his life that he and Mirembe became good friends ever since. She named him little Safi. And since then, Mombasa Mirembe continued to defend the African savannahs from greedy mercenaries and voracious creatures. Other daring deeds she accomplished were when a local Swahili village was being threatened by wild animals from lions to elephants and other predators. She challenged them all to a man to beast brawl. All the lions were rough, jagged and ravenous compared to her. But that didn’t intimidate her in the least, little did the beasts of the wild know she was no ordinary hero, she possessed a very extraordinary ability to enlarge herself to incredible sizes. She increased her muscular physique ten-fold to give herself the strength of ten lions. With it she managed to give the king of beasts a taste of his own raw meat. As for the elephants, she gained more than five tons of fat to her body to out-

28


wrestle all of the grey giants. The animals were all stunned by her strength that they became tame and followed her every command when needed. The Swahili tribes were also awed by her magnificence that they honored her as their greatest protector, although they never learned who she really was, they can only say that she was a spiritual hero sent to them in their hour of need. Thanks to Mirembe’s heroic efforts to preserve the wildlife peace, all of Africa’s tribes endured through the famine until the year when food was parachuted to them. After that she mysteriously vanished never to be seen again. Up til now, her heroic deeds and valor became the stuff of Swahili legend. And some say at night when the moon is full and the grasslands are still, you can see the silhouette of the legendary female warrior and hear her call of the wild, AAA-AI-AI-AI-AI-YI-YI-YI-YI!!!!”

The team was astonished by her tale, but mostly Gina. “Whoa, a real jungle girl huh?” asked Razor. “Actually a savannah girl,” Cameron corrected. “You know something, guys?” Gina asked. “Doesn’t she remind you of someone familiar?” “My great aunt Sally?” answered Mech. “No, me! Her powers and abilities are not that different from mine. You think she could be my predecessor?” “Who knows? But we’re gonna have to track her down if we’re gonna get this fragment working again. What can you tell us about that elephant idol?” Dr. Adin examines it. “Oh, this is a very special item mentioned in the legend. It is said that it was a gift from Mirembe’s best friend, Safi which signified the strong friendship the two shared. When they used to hold it up in the night sky together, it gleamed in the light of the moon. But one day, explorers searching for her whereabouts came across it, took it away and became acquired in this museum. Because of that, without her precious gift, Mirembe and her friend were torn apart. Little Safi thought she didn’t like him anymore that she threw it away. Heartbroken over her best friend’s rejection, Mirembe lost the strength to defend the wildlife and simply faded into obscurity.” The team notices the doctor looking at the idol in deep sorrow. “Hey, you okay doc?” She wakes up. “Oh, uh, sorry, I was just thinking how devastated she was.” Gina is saddened too at that tale. “I know! We could borrow this idol and once we find her and her friend, they’ll finally be reunited.” Razor doesn’t fully believe in her since she’s a legend but Cameron firmly agrees with Gina. The team asks permission to borrow the idol and sets out to find the elusive Mombasa Mirembe. Dr. Adin looks upon the team with intrigue and hope.

They figure the first step to finding her would be one of the native Kenya tribes. They arrive and try to ask for any info but all the villagers were very senile and couldn’t understand a word they’re saying. The team appears to be at a dead end. But Gina remembers what the legend said, at night during a full moon and calm grassland, her silhouette appears along with her cry. So they decide to wait until nightfall. At night they waited and watched for anything unusual. They then saw something in the grass. They also heard a loud cry. The team runs closer but when they uncovered the grass, it was just Mech and Tech fighting over the toothbrush. Disappointed, they keep on watching, hours pass and still nothing. They nod off to sleep when suddenly a strange cry echoes across the grassland. Gina wakes up and before her eyes she sees a faint shadowy figure in the distance, she thought could that be her? She wakes up everyone and urges them to chase after her. Once they do, the figure runs away into the savannah. They chase after her for miles but when they lose track of her they find themselves in the middle of nowhere.

The team seems lost but Gina decides to search for her using only her ears. She calms down and tries to locate her in the grass. She suddenly hears a noise and heads over to it but to everyone’s shock it was a Cyber-Yinari ambush! They’re all based on African creatures who’ve been sent to ambush the team. The team gets in gear and combats them. Once they defeat them they hear massive footsteps, then a giant-sized elephant based Cyber-Yinari appears. The team tries to dent him but no effect. G tries to tussle with him but gets pummeled in the dirt. The giant wrecking machine raises his oversized foot to crush her when that same loud cry echoes across their surroundings. A nimble, shrouded figure leaps out from the shrubs onto the giant. The creature thrashes about as she thrusts her staff into the heart of the

29


creature disabling it. The figure lands in the moonlight revealing herself. The team looks upon her in surprise to be the very fictitious vigilante they’re searching for, Mombasa Mirembe herself. She appears as a sleek, agile female Swahili tribe warrior clad in traditional African bra and undies, her body decorated in markings painted in ochre, her hair tied in a traditional hairstyle, and holding a long staff made from savanna tree wood. She gazes upon her guests in a solid revered stare. “Habari za jioni, welcome to my wild kingdom. It has been many a moon since I had visitors in my quiet, vast, grassy domain, especially loud, rambunctious fighters causing chaos and unrest to my children!” The team looks startled. “You chose a poor place to create destruction and bedlam, for you have invoked the most legendary defender of these lands. I am the guardian of all creatures wild and free, over-seeker of the land of countless races and endless boundaries, I am known only as Mombasa Mirembe!” The team is astonished by her when suddenly the giant elephant Yinari reactivates and starts attacking again. True to the legend, she wasn’t frightened of anything. “To those who doubt me, gaze upon me as I use my special gift to expand my majestic might to new heights!” Then without hesitation, she grows up larger than the creature. To everyone’s surprise including G’s, she is over 50 feet high! She begins to have a giant-sized brawl. She grabs the creature’s whole body and lifts him up and tosses him to the ground. She then enlarges her fists dealing intense punches creating dents in his hard metal. The beast is really steamed now, he produces large mounted cannons shooting deadly beams. Mirembe becomes irritated, she flexes her arms which her muscles enhanced and uses her jacked arms to rip the guns right off him along with his entire metal skin. The creature is on his last legs, literally since she ripped them off. Mirembe looks upon him. “Allow me to end your pain by giving you my signature Kilimanjaro boulder crush.” Her body then bloats up making her an overweight African sumo. She recoils her arms and legs and starts rolling towards the sitting duck creature like a giant boulder. The creature couldn’t move out of the way, she then crushes the beast with her rolling massive weight. The team applauds for her, but mostly G because she has her same exact fighting style.

Mirembe shrinks back down and eyes her other guests. The team stands nervous in her presence. “As for you, what punishment shall I bestow upon you four?” The team becomes frightened. She then breaks into laughter. “Only a joke. You were the ones who bravely defended my homeland from those vile heathens, me and my children are most grateful.” Cyber decides to speak out. “Um, ahem, we should be the ones thanking you for saving us from being elephant chow. Allow us to introduce ourselves, we are a band of famous, in-your-face, out-of-this-world teenage earth defenders, TEAM SOUND OFF! Cyberman! The digital king!” “The Black Death! The soon-to-be king of the dark!” “And his soon-to-be queen The Shu-Yi!” “And I’m the G to the G to the I-R-L, and ain’t nobody’s gonna top me far as I can tell, I’m G-licious!” The team looks at her weirdly. “Uh, I mean, I’m G-Girl.” “And together we are-” “The Dream Team,” Mirembe interrupted. “Doh! You blew our signature roll call! Wait, you know us?” “Mombasa Mirembe knows all who transpires in her domain.” “Great ‘cause we’ve been searching for you. You see we’re on a particular quest gathering certain fragments around the world to bring an end to the Yinari once and for all and we came across an elephant idol which according to legend belongs to you, so with your cooperation we can reactivate it, here let me show you.” But when Cyber checks his pockets he finds it’s gone. Suddenly Mirembe holds out the idol in her hand. “You mean this?” “Wha? How’d you get that?” “Oh I have much needed assistance from my children.” “There’s that word again, what do you mean by children?” Suddenly a parade of wild animals appears from the grass from lions to antelopes to monkeys etc. and joins by her side. “Yikes. To coin a phrase, that’s one wild tough mother,” Black said. “My prodigious strength and unearthly gift has enabled me to tame the many beasts of the wild. They all follow me as a mother and I treat them as my children. I thank you for returning that which is rightfully mine. I have been scouring these lands for ages for my long lost symbol of friendship. Now that I have found it, I can finally mend a promise broken many years ago.” The team was shocked that that wasn’t what they were going for at all. “Bu- but, wait a minute! You don’t understand.” “The

30


night is growing old, I must now take my leave. Young rowdy adolescent warriors, I bid you all usiku mwema.” She then disappears in the grass. The team is stupefied. “Give us back our elephant!” The team tries to chase after her. They can barely see her through the dense grass but when they finally pass through it she’s nowhere to be found. The team feels utterly duped. “She just took it right under our noses!” Cyber said. “That’s the last time I listen to any backwoods legend,” Black groans. “But you know how much that idol means to her,” G comments. “She needs it to reunite with her old friend.” “But we need it for a much bigger cause. Every last fragment counts if we’re gonna kick our foe’s booties outta here forever.” “I say first thing in the morning we go on a safari of our own, to hunt down the elusive, two-timing, wild woman of this mud hole,” suggests Black. Everyone else agrees then decides to head back. G looks back thinking about how wowed she was by her and how they’re going to convince her to give back the fragment. Meanwhile in a secluded cave with decorative markings on the wall, African pottery and relics lying around a campfire, Mombasa Mirembe arrives and enters inside. This is apparently her secret cave. She sets the elephant idol down. According to her shadow on the wall she unravels her hair as it flows down revealing it to be long and luxurious, which looks very familiar. “Oh Mirembe, 30 years and you still haven’t lost your touch,” she said in a familiar voice. “I feel kind of bad for taking it from those kids. They actually are quite a righteous bunch of teenage earth defenders. But they don’t understand the pain I’ve felt all these years. No one does.” She walks towards a photograph. “Safi my old friend, it won’t be long until I’ll bring everything back to when it once was.” The photograph contained a baby elephant alongside a teenage African girl with long hair.

The next day, the team gears up for a hunt across the savannah. They try to track their target’s feet tracks, her scent, anything, but they were getting nowhere fast. Later, Gina was distracted thinking about Mirembe again. Suddenly a monkey appears and eats all her lipstick which blows her fuse and chases after him. She chases him away from the team to across the grass and over the hills. She soon loses him but finds herself in a hidden gorge. Beside the rock face is a cave which she decides to investigate. Inside the cave she spots African relics and markings on the cave walls. She suddenly sees the elephant idol that was taken from them. After she picks it up, she begins to wonder if this place is actually her secret hideout. She also spots a photo, she eyes the baby elephant and once she spots the young African girl, she becomes stunned. She recognizes that hair and face before, but suddenly she hears a noise, she peers outside the cave and round the back was to her surprise a perfectly pristine oasis with a large tree and waterfall pouring into a lake. Within the waterfall is someone bathing underneath while singing a song in Swahili. Gina eyes her in surprise that that must be her, suddenly the same monkey whom Gina was chasing reappears and bugs her which causes Mirembe to notice her presence. She quickly springs from the waterfall and Gina quickly hides. Mirembe grabs her staff and searches her cave, Gina hides behind a stalactite, then that same monkey appears and gives away her hiding. Mirembe pokes her staff at her which she reveals herself. Mirembe stares at her grimly while Gina becomes petrified. “Who dares to enter the hallowed sanctum of the great, elusive Mombasa Mirembe?” “Um, uh, well actually it wasn’t my fault, that stupid monkey just ate all my makeup, thrashed my hair and-” “Silence! No one has ever discovered my secret grounds and lived.” “But wait, wait! I know you won’t ice me, because I know you’re not that type of person, Dr. Adin.” She becomes surprised then shakes it off. “I know not of whom you speak of. I would not dare to be a part of you civilized people.” “Oh come on, you know me, when you told me and my friends about how awesome you were and how you saved your baby elephant friend, what’s his name? Sophie?” “Safi! It’s Safi! Why does everybody get that wrong?” she corrected. “Ha! Gotcha!” Gina duped her. “Oh panyas, my identity’s been kept secret from every living soul for 30 years and a teenage girl comes along and busts it. I was wrong, I have completely lost my touch.” “That’s not true. You’re the most swiftest, hottest, strongest, largest, wildest guardian of this frontier, and I could learn a lot from your tricks.” “Hmph, I’m no guardian, I’m nothing but a failure. I broke a promise I kept to a dear friend along with a whole race of creatures.” “Just because you lost some idol?” “This isn’t

31


just some idol, this is a most precious and sacred symbol to all elephant-kind. Without it, I was branded a traitor to their race.” “I take it there’s a whole exclusive story behind it? This I gotta hear. Why don’t you start at the beginning, from the day of your origin?” “What do you care?” “We’re The Dream Team, we always care. Tell me anyway.”

She begins to reminisce back when she was young. “I was born a young girl part of a prosperous tribe in Ethiopia, since I was young I discovered I had a gift of bonding with the animals of the wild. I always befriended and took great care of many creatures in need of medical service. My personal favorites were the mighty, strong, and large elephants. I dreamed to be as big and strong as them so I could become one with their herd and defend my homeland. Then the great famine struck our home. Our crops withered away, our cattle decreased and our people began succumbing to starvation. Even the wildlife was facing hunger and worse, being threatened by poachers for their meat. I just couldn’t bear to see my children in agony, night after night I prayed and prayed for a miracle to stop this madness, that’s when I saw a star shining brighter than the rest in the sky. To my surprise it was coming towards me, the bright star turned out to be an all-powerful cosmic being, Queen Cressinda of The Yangari. She has heard my prayers and has come to me in my tribe’s darkest hour. She knew that this was no ordinary famine our land was facing, this was a dark, demonic, otherworldly curse brought upon by a villainous, corrupting scourge, The Yinari. They planned to spawn dark feelings of greed and insanity from our people to feed on. She also noted that they alone cannot stop them, only one who truly cares for the many people and countless wildlife of all Africa can be its true protector. To my major surprise, that person was me. She granted me a great power based on my dreams, to be the ultimate defender of this land with the miraculous ability to turn myself from a small feeble mortal to an enormous vigorous titan, and the psychic gift to form an unbreakable bond with all the creatures of the wild. All I needed was a title, I chose to name myself Mirembe meaning peace, but I also wanted it to sound more catchier, so I thought Mombasa Mirembe. So for the following weeks, I underwent hours of training with the queen, she taught me how to expand my body taller, fatter, and buffer past the limits. She also taught me the most advanced African martial arts techniques, she took a piece of bark from a savannah tree and fashioned it into a staff for me to wield in combat. But in order for me to bond with the animals, I had to make them trust me first. I knew that once I have, I will have become a true warrior. Suddenly, a group of starving people from my own tribe secretly formed a hunting party and planned to go out into the wilderness to hunt down innocent animals for food. This was my chance to prove myself, I successfully subdued those traitors with one swift throw. That’s when I met my friend for life, the small helpless elephant they were chasing was terrified at the sight of humans but I showed him my complete compassion. My ability made me communicate with him by speaking his language, he was shocked to see a human understanding his speech that he told me that he has never seen a human caring for his kind before. I told him I am the savannah’s sole protector who watches over all its inhabitants including them. The elephant gave me his complete trust. I asked for his name but when he told me, it was very impossible to pronounce so I decided to name him little Safi. Since that day, I continued to defend my country. When I heard about an animal outbreak threatening my village, I saw this as my chance to introduce myself to everyone. I pummeled the lions and squashed the elephants which made all the other wild creatures drop dead in my presence. I spoke to their leaders in which they told me that man has threatened their sanctuary with hunters wishing to devour them all. They have responded by declaring all-out war. I began to realize both sides were being driven by hunger to the phrase “eat or be eaten.” I tried to explain that they are all being manipulated by the famine. I proposed a truce between them and the humans, judging by my strength they just witnessed, the leaders of both lions and elephants chose to contemplate on that decision. After they all left, the people from my tribe congratulated me for saving them, they asked about me and all I told them was I am the legendary guardian of the wild who defends its inhabitants from all evil who threatens my kingdom. I became famous all over the tribes of Africa. As I continued to fend off

32


malicious hunters, the animals began trusting me more and more that they agreed to assist me in battle. Both the animals and humans were so awed by me that they agreed not to threaten each other anymore, but that didn’t mean they made peace together. All of a sudden, my biggest challenge arrived, the two dark lords of The Yinari, Darxus and Zylpheeza have had enough of my meddling that they themselves came down to earth to eliminate me once and for all. They used their dark magic to create a horrifying behemoth based on the dead souls of animals. Both the humans and animals were in grave danger and it was all up to me to save them all. I arrived and tried to squash the monster to pieces but my maximum size was just about as tall as the beast’s hangnail. He thrashed me like a deforestator. But at the moment when I was just about to give up, all the animals rushed to me and shielded me from the behemoth. They were willing to protect me after all I’ve done for them. Their courage rekindled my own, I vowed that no matter how hard the darkness drags me down, I still have my children to pull me right back up and will never give up bringing peace to both man and beast alike. Suddenly I felt something deep inside me, it was my true inner strength awakened. As I rose up to face the behemoth, my whole body grew up towards him. For the first time, I had reached a size no other living creature has gone to before, 100 feet. With my newfound size, I engaged the spawn to a fight to the death. He was swift but I was swifter, I managed to withstand his claws with my rock hard skin and unleashed a swarm of punches and kicks. I focused all my might in one final blow which shattered the devastator’s corpse-like body to pieces. The giant undead abomination was no more. My animal brethren couldn’t congratulate me enough for saving all of Africa. Even the elephants were most indebted to my glorious deeds, so indebted that they decided to accept me as an honorary member of their proud and mighty herd. I felt my dream finally came true. But they told me that if I do, I must cast away all my ties to the human world. That was not part of my dream at all. That’s when the chief presented me with their most treasured, sacred relic never seen before by human eyes, an elephant idol made from pure ivory. They told me to let this idol determine my trust towards them all and never to lose it. Safi was overjoyed that I get to be a part of his family, but deep down I was confused that I have to abandon my old life, my tribe, my family, and my career as a medical doctor. Safi cheered me up by showing me a trick with the idol, we both held it up towards the moon which made the ivory glimmer in the moonlight, it was beautiful. Later, I tried to choose which side I belonged in, civilization or the wild. Why couldn’t I just belong to both? I was so distracted that I forgot all about the sacred idol. I don’t actually know how I lost it but I can only guess that somehow I must’ve dropped it out in the savannah and some safari trekker found it and thought it’d be worth a fortune so he brought it to the Nairobi natural history museum and it became a part of its collection. Soon to my horror, I discovered that the idol was gone, I searched long and hard for it but couldn’t find it anywhere. The elephants were awaiting my answer but I shuddered of what they’ll think when they hear I don’t have their precious artifact. I was brought in before the elephant tribe to convey my choice, when I was asked to present the elephant idol to them, I was so very sorry to say that I lost it. The elephants were so outraged, they thought I must have thrown it away in rejection to joining them. I tried to explain but they refused to hear any more of my treacherous words. They said they were foolish to trust a human like me and have declared that they despise all of man and want nothing to do with them. Even little Safi was heartbroken for my betrayal, I tried to explain to him but he decided he didn’t want to be my friend anymore. At that point, my dream was broken, my one chance at bringing peace between the animals and humans and me living among the giants of the savannah and I blew it. Soon in my saddest hour, the queen of The Yangari returned to me and told me she knows where the idol is, I arrived at the museum and saw the missing idol on display. I was told by the curator that that is their personal property. I thought of stealing it back but then that would make Mirembe a thief to the humans. I begged the curator that I would do anything to earn it, I even promised that I would pay full price for it. He agreed that’s possible but doubted I could do it. Finally, the food crisis came to an end when food was distributed to my village, after that I decided to move from my tribe to the big city to make my fortune as an animal doctor for the wild, since I can communicate with all creatures. For the past 30 years I’ve been

33


saving up enough money to buy back the missing piece to my dreams. Since then, illegal poaching in Africa declined, which meant I hardly needed to protect my children anymore. Because of that, Mombasa Mirembe soon became a forgotten myth. But the one thing that never changed was the painful memory I’ve lived with throughout all those years.”

At the end of her tale, Gina was more sad than a heartbroken puppy. “That was awe-inspiring but wasteful. Now I know we just gotta help you and your buddy get back together. But we really, really need that idol for our big quest.” “Your quest is meaningless. You can’t just destroy The Yinari just like that. Every time they die, they always pull themselves back together endlessly.” “But this time’s different. We’ll be able to banish them away from our dimension forever. You just gotta trust us.” Mirembe is still skeptical, suddenly they hear noise coming from outside. They rush out and see a hoard of Cyber-Yinari who’ve discovered her secret hideout. Gina tries to fend them off but they were too much for her, suddenly the rest of her team arrives and joins her. Mirembe becomes so inspired by them, especially by G because she reminds her exactly like herself, that she helps them take down the creeps. The rest of the team begins to interrogate Mirembe about the idol. “There you are. We ain’t happy for what you pulled on us last night,” Black threatened. “You better cough up the goods if you don’t wanna get the dragon mad.” G then explains to everyone that she’s Dr. Adin. Everyone is stunned. “But wait a minute,” Cyber said. “If you, then that means, you used us to get the idol!” She admits she did use the team to steal back the idol but she now realizes how bad both of them need it. G suggests they let her present it to the elephants so she’ll win back their trust and that way the radiance will be restored. But the elephants will never give up their heirloom once they do so the team has to convince them not to base people’s trust over objects. Adilah knew that her words alone aren’t strong enough to convince the tribe because of her betrayal. G then has the most perfect idea, she should train under her so she can learn to be as wild and mighty as she to prove to them that Mirembe has taken a pupil which would show them she’s more than a traitor. Adilah isn’t sure she could handle it but G states that she’s just about the same age as her when she first became a hero.

The team couldn’t stand waiting through a whole month of training so Cyber decides to speed things along with a montage. Mirembe teaches G all about the secrets of her magnificence. Although G can only grow to 30 feet, Mirembe teaches her how to go past the limit, not care about embarrassment and to just let it go. She blows herself past the point and manages to reach forty feet although her suit snaps, luckily no one saw. She also gives her her own staff to use for martial arts, she learns how to use staff coordinated attacks. And last communicating with the animals, G tries to speak to one of Mirembe’s animal children but she can hardly understand a word. She teaches her to connect her mind with the creature’s. She successfully does so. Mirembe notices her distracted by something. She explains that it’s Cameron, her one and only cyber baby. She loves him so much and the last thing she wants is him seeing her as repulsive and ugly. Mirembe then tells her that ugly is a metaphor that only exists if people make it to be and so is beauty so it does not matter what is on the exterior as long as the interior stays beautiful. G heartfelt and teary-eyed gives her a hug as Mirembe hugs her too and kisses her head in comfort feeling she’s like the daughter she never had. In the end, G has become a full-fledged African warrior of the wild. She becomes dressed in animal skin bikini, red ochre markings, her hair tied and holding her own staff. She is ready.

They soon make their way to the herd of the elephants. Two elephant guards bar their entry but Mirembe presents them their sacred artifact, the guards becomes revered in its presence. They are granted an audience with their chief. When they’re taken before the chief, Adilah looks at him in nervousness. “Hello, old friend.” The team realizes that that’s her little Safi all grown up. “You mean he’s grown up to be the leader of the pack?” Mech asked. “Not pack, herd,” Tech corrected. “Herd what?” “Herd of elephants.” “Heck yeah I’ve heard of elephants!” The chief looks upon Adilah in

34


disappointment. Cyber asks Tech to provide them some translation. Tech translates what the two of them are saying. The chief tells Adilah how dare she return to their sanctuary, and bringing along other humans. She responds by presenting their long lost sacred symbol. He eyes it with no recognition because he refuses to accept it from the possession of a liar and a traitor. But Adilah then introduces the team saying she has taken students under her wing to teach them her skills but only G is her star pupil. G shows off her moves she learned in front of the tribe. The elephants are quite shaken except the chief. One of the elephants becomes so jealous that he charges at her, but she uses her new martial arts reflexes to jump over him as he rams into a wall. More elephants advance towards her. She then grows up taller than the grey giants. She picks up each one and juggles them while tossing them aside. The whole tribe feels the same shock they felt when they were defeated by Mirembe. The chief admits that G truly is her mighty disciple. Adilah then explains that she never did discard their idol in rejection to accepting them but lost it to the humans all those years ago and she with the help of her students managed to retrieve it. The chief starts to believe her, then asks her if she really isn’t a traitor, did she never stop caring about their tribe. She says she didn’t just care about the elephants, for 30 years all she never forgot about was him and their unbreakable friendship. She hugs his trunk as he wraps it around her. After all those years, Mirembe and her old not-so-little friend have been reunited once more. All the elephants rejoice. Mirembe becomes so excited that she grows up and hugs her friend in her arms. Chief Safi announces that Mombasa Mirembe has returned to them to finally join their mighty herd. But Adilah then says that that’s another thing they need to discuss. She had trouble deciding which side she belonged to and asks why she can’t belong to both the wild and humanity. The other elephants become outraged at the sound of that word. The chief then silences them and decides to bring her and her group to his private chamber. There, chief Safi explains that the elephants are becoming hostile and warlike towards the humans that they have declared total war against them, just like 30 years ago. Cyber and his gang suspect they’re being manipulated by The Yinari. That also explains why they’ve encountered elephant-like Yinari. The chief is trying to prevent a conflict between the two but can’t hold out for much long, he certainly didn’t expect Mirembe to return to them in their hour of need. Adilah then suggests him to try and keep everything under control while she and the team set out to stop whoever’s causing all this.

The team along with Mirembe tracks down a group of elephants heading to a secret meeting. To their surprise, the meeting is held by Darxus 2.0 who has planned to bring all animals of the wild over to his side so he can amass an army of Cyber-Yinari animal hybrids to bring down those “agonizing hyperactive migraines” the dream twerps. “Comment from the crowd,” Cyber exclaims. “We’re way more agonizing and hyperactive than migraines.” He then spots them and orders his minions to attack. “Dream Team, let’s jungle boogie!!!” The team goes wild with the wild goons. Cyber takes down lions, “The lion weeps tonight!” Black and Shu clobber gorillas, “Hakuna Matata, jerks.” And G squashes elephants, “Hey jumbo, have a taste of my jungle love.” “Any more jungle song related puns?” Tech asks. “Try out some of our bare necessities,” Mech responds. “That story’s not even in Africa.” After the team defeats all of them, a huge fireball comes straight towards them. Then Mirembe appears and moves them out of the way. Darxus eyes his old foe. “Ah, there you are. I was wondering if the team had the fortune of bumping into you and actually bringing you out of retirement too.” “Spare me your twisted jargon. You don’t look much from what I remember of you since I saved my home from your storm of starvation.” “You thought that was easy? Well this time’s different, I have managed to bring evil into the 21st century.” “So what, even your oversized hodge-podge of decaying dark matter was no match for my rock-solid spirit. What’s the worst you got?”

“Funny you should remind me about my once greatest creation yet, ‘cause I’ve had the liberty of bringing him back for his 30 year anniversary!” Suddenly from a dark portal, something giant and monstrous emerges. To everyone’s horror, especially Mirembe’s, it turns out to be the very exact behemoth she defeated all those years ago! But this time, he’s been cybernetically reconstructed! “He’s

35


baaaack,” Mech comments. “But, but, that’s,” Mirembe stutters. “Déjà vu all over again?” Cyber asks. Mirembe tries coming at the beast but his hard metal skin is too tough even for her punches. “You’re all washed up. You spent all that time working at your littlest pet shop thinking how you screwed it up for your wild buddies.” “Shut up! I’ve put my mistake behind me.” “You think? Confidentially between you and me, it was no coincidence you lost your precious idol.” Mirembe becomes shocked. “I was so cheesed off after you clobbered my creation to smithereens. So when you weren’t looking, I managed to sneak into your hideout, steal the idol and make it look like an unexpected coincidence that an elephant idol just became part of the museum’s collection.” After Mirembe heard that, she becomes extremely angered. “All those years of sorrow and torment, and it wasn’t me, it was you!!!” She goes on a rampaging spree but gets beaten more. The team tries to help her, they tell her that she needs help from her students. Then suddenly, a noise is heard from the distance, it’s chief Safi and his elephant army along with all the animals of Africa here to defend their home. Mirembe sees her friend and children defending their home which inspires her to get right back up. The team goes giga and battles alongside Mirembe. Mirembe and G bust out what they trained for as they both give out their call of the wild. They both get wild and simultaneously deal martial arts punches and oversized smashes. They both inflate to giant boulders and start pinballing the robo freak. Cyber calls for the big finale, the team gathers for the Supreme Dream Team Beam which blows the behemoth back to whence it came. Darxus then makes his usual “curses foiled again” gesture and escapes.

The team and Mirembe rejoice while Safi congratulates her. The two of them make up by her saying that it never was her fault she messed up years ago, it was all Darxus who destroyed their friendship. But Safi says no, the idol was the source of their sorrow they both faced for 30 years. Seeing her deep admiration for her home and for the wild, he can tell that she truly is a hero for both the animals and man. He also realizes that man is not so corrupt and evil after all. And so by special decree of his majesty, he declares Mombasa Mirembe an honorary member of the mighty elephants while she continues living among the humans, and also declares to let their tribe finally accept the human’s hospitality. She becomes overjoyed. The team then remembers about their quest, G asks Mirembe to show them their neat trick they used to do for old time’s sake. She and Safi held the idol up to the moon, then it regained its long lost radiance in the moonlight. Cyber asks if they could have it since he has no need for it. Safi agrees. He gives it to Mozayech as it turns into a fragment piece. Mission accomplished! Before the team leaves, Dr. Adin and Safi want to thank the team for all that they’ve done. She mostly wants to thank Gina for becoming her strongest disciple that she has shown her herself. They both give a huge hug and a farewell wild call. To celebrate, the team along with Mirembe sings a jungle classic from her time, Baltimora’s “Tarzan Boy.”

America: The Dark Cruiser (motorcycle rider, Yinari like Black, terrified Razor’s parents when they were young back in the 70’s. Cross between The Wild One and The Ghost Rider. Do their rendition of “Ghost riders in the sky.”)

Europe: Italy, France, Spain, Greece. South America: When they reach the Amazon River, the team wonders how to cross it. Cyber has

an idea, he whispers in G’s ear and she says, “How much more humiliation must I take?” She

37


jumps in the water and inflates herself to look round. She lies on her back in the river and Cyber urges everyone to get on board her. They use her as a raft down the river.

Japan: They learn how to speak Japanese. They call each other their names with Japanese suffixes, Cyber-kun, G-chan, Black-sempai, Xion-san, Razor-sama. Mech and Tech are aniki, call him Cameron-sempai. They call their master, Rianus-sama. The team calls themselves Saikou no Chojin (ultimate superheroes) Dream Team. Since they’re in Japan, they decide to blend in, Cyber becomes a samurai: Cybermaru and calls his sword, Cyberken. G plays the part of a princess, Fukuramu-Hime (Expanding Princess) who can become a daibijin (giant beauty). Razor thought of her being more like a sumo wrestler. She eventually becomes one. Black and Shu become ninjas who use yinjutsu. Their fighting style is called yami-no-ken (dark fist). They become yami-no-ryujin (dark dragon men). In the end, they all sing a Japanese rock song. Camino’s “Story” They sing it in Japanese karaoke style.

Australia- Land down under. Egypt- Walk like an Egyptian. India Russia Iran Korea- Cyber makes a quick stop and bumps into Psy at a concert, they dance Gangnam Style

together. Latin America- The citizens spot the team and shout, “Madre de Dios! Son esos adolescentes

superhéroes, El Dream Team!” And Cameron responds, “Sí, hemos venido a buscar el fragmento que está oculto en algún lugar de su pequeño país. Y también explorar todas las auténticas culturas maravilloso que era.” “Para la bamba.” “Macarena”

Final battle, outer space, the moon, where the final piece lies. Darxus and his minions have built a giant space station that will cyber-tize the entire earth into their dark cybernetic empire. The team becomes captured by their sophisticated security system, except Xion since she’s new. It’s all up to her to save them. Afterwards, The Yinari manage to trick Cyber into becoming the centerpiece to their machine that will drain his power source and be used to cyber-tize the earth. Cyber becomes emotionless with his mind bonded with the machine as he begins to forget all about himself and his friends. “COUNTDOWN TO CYBERTIZATION 0700 HOURS AND COUNTING.” He’s done so much for his team saving them from the clutches of The Yinari but now he’s been captured himself and it’s all up to his amigos to save him this time. Black tries to knock sense into him. “Wake up, buckethead!!! You’re no battery!” He conks him on the head. “ALERT. ALERT. MACHINE CORE PIECE THREATENED BY FOREIGN OBJECT. ACTIVATING SECURITY MEASURES.” He electrocutes them. Not even G could reach out to him. “Please, Cyber baby. You gotta remember me, your one and only G?” She removes his visor and sees his face emotionless with his eyes glowing but that doesn’t stop her from kissing him. But he says, “NAME DESIGNATION: G AND CYBER BABY DOES NOT EXIST.” That’s when Mech and Tech have this idea of inputting one of their minds into Cyber’s mind so that they can free him. G volunteers but Black decides to do it since Cameron was the one who saved him from The Yinari’s corruptive malice so he thinks he should return the favor. The rest look out for them both while they’re connected. They connect wires from Cyber’s head onto Black’s. He then enters inside his mind. Black searches through his massive databanks and finds it all corrupted by The Yinari’s machine. He manages to find Cameron all trapped and helpless. He knocks sense into him by reminding him who he is and who his friends are. But nothing’s working, Black can only think of one thing left and he hates it. “I’m gonna kill myself for doing this.” What he does is for the first time, he actually hugs Cameron. A selfless act made possible by a true amigo. That was the jolt needed to jumpstart his memories. He manages to free him as they return and Cyber becomes disconnected from the machine. Black then says to him, “This did not happen between the two of us,

39


COMPRENDE!!!?” The team encourages the people of earth to give them their dreams. “Darxus, these are probably the last words you’ll ever hear from us. Ever since we first met, since we first laid eyes on your ugly, corrupt mug, since we started listening to your deranged, maniacal rambling, we’ve been dying to say this to you.” “Shut. Up.” The team unleashes their combined supreme powers to shatter the Cyber-Yinaris to pieces exposing their dark reconstructed hearts. They team pulls out the completed banisher made from all the fragments to teleport their hearts away from their dimension. After their defeat, presumed gone forever. The team reflects that besides locating all the artifacts, they discovered all the many different cultures, races, and heroes from every country in the world. They celebrate with Dave Stewart’s “Everybody all over the world.”

Theme park attraction: Interactive show: The team argues about what show it’s going to be. Cyber suggests a stand-up comedy revue, G likes a high-beat pop dancercise-a-thon, while Black demands a rock and roll-a-palooza. They decide to have it all in one show. Guests arrive in a theater with a large wide video screen, which is described as the Fourth Wall in Wacky-Jacky land that separates the two worlds. The team greets the visitors and can interact with the people out there. First Cyber does a stand-up comedy bit where he tells funny tales and gets reactions from the people. Next G gets the people on their feet and dance along with her to some dance beat music while exercising. Last, Black creates his own guitar and brings the house down with really loud rock-and-roll. Suddenly there’s trouble, due to Black’s land-shaking rock and roll, the wall gets broken and the team gets sucked outside onto the stage. They are people in costumes: Cyber-person wearing Cyber’s suit costume, G-Person wearing skin-like cloth costume that inflates, with bikini, animatronic face mask, hand-like gloves and foot-like boots, and Black-person wearing Black Death armor costume. The team urges the audience to help them solve the problem and afterwards, the team congratulates them with wrapping it all up with their theme song. When the guests exit the theater, they are treated with a meet-and-greet of the team. There is a smaller video screen that stretches from the floor to the top, in which the team appears and come out of the screen in costume to greet the guests while giving photo-ops. Similar to “Turtle Talk with Crush” and “Terminator 2 3-D”.

The team becomes hosts of The Nickelodeon Kids Choice Awards. Cyber, G, and Black host the show giving awards and laughs. They also perform awesome feats when presenting the winning envelopes. G stands next to a huge block of concrete. “Hey everybody!” she shouts to the audience. “How’s everybody hangin’? Great. Anyway, as you can see, standing right next to me is a 50 foot, 100 ton block of solid, hard concrete. And deep within the heart is the envelope for Best Leading Actress in a Movie. I know what you’re all thinking, “how’s a frail, puny little girl like me gonna get through this hard rock?” Well if you don’t already know, I actually have the ability to inflate my elastic body to gargantuan proportions giving me the strength of 50 angry mountain gorillas, no kidding. Once I put the G in gigantic, I can smash through that block like cardboard. So who wants to see me in action?” Screams from crowd. “All right. Well actually, there are three ways I can do it, 1. I can grow to 30 ft. tall, the size of an L.A. palm tree and pound that block into instant gravel. 2. I can blow up my body into a

40


huge, round, tubby, bouncy sumo form and bounce up high in the sky and dive bomb down and obliterate that block into last week. Or 3. I can pump up my muscles into a hulking, beefcakey, ripped up bod and lift up that block, toss it up and split it in two. So the choice is up to you. You can vote on Nick.com to decide which way I should pump up.” Kids enter Nick.com to vote on which of the three choices she should perform: tall, fat, or muscles. If the kids voted for no. 1, G says, “Number 1, tall, all right! I’m gonna hit the big time. Elevator going up!” She sticks her thumb in her mouth and grows to 30 feet high. “Ding! 30th floor, wrecking crew. Hey, you all look like little ants. Hello block, this is my fist. Fist, show Mr. block how you say hi.” She starts pounding and smashing the block to dust. “All right! How’d you like that? Large and in charge! Ginormica’s got nothing on this, no offense Susan. Oh look what I found, a kids choice awards envelope.” She then reads the name of the winner. If they chose 2, she says, “Number 2, fat, okey doke! Super-size me! Just need to suck in and…” She holds her breath and her body inflates looking round and fat with a large gut. “Tell me once again who’s fat?” she said while patting her belly. “Don’t be making any fat jokes. All righty, time to give this block a real bouncing.” She starts bouncing on her gut and she bounces up high. “Alley oop!” And she focuses her girth at the block and dives down fast. “Bombs away!” Pulverizing the block. “Cough, cough, whooo! That was a hoot! Who’s the girl with gut? Me that’s who!” she shouted while jiggling. “My powers, like my size, know no bounds. Huh? But where’s the envelope?” She reaches into her bellybutton and pulls it out. “Oh here it is. I hope I can read it through this lint.” If they chose no. 3, she says, “Number 3, muscles, great choice! Time to pump it up a notch! I’m gonna be the buffest, brawniest babe this side of Bel Air.” She flexes her arms and her muscles beef up from her biceps to her abs to her deltoids. “Eat your heart out, Schwarzenegger,” she said in a German accent while posing and flexing. “Und now to show zis girly block mein signature super mega uber wunderbar lift, toss, und pow!” She lifts up the giant block. “Up-a!” She tosses it in the air. “And KER-POW!” She punches the block splitting it in two. “That’s right, baby! It’s all in the guns. Pow! Boom! Check it!” she said as she continued showing off her guns. “There ain’t no physique in the world that can match these solid gold mountains. Oh, I forgot, here’s the Envelope for Best Leading Actress in a Movie.” Afterwards she says, “Well thanks again kids for voting. I think I’m starting to grow on you all. And remember, whenever I’m in a jam, I just have to give a great deep breath and pump it!” she said as she flexes her right arm. “Catch ya on the flipside!”

(Season 3): travel to other DreamWorks's worlds, after the remains of the Yinari have been banished to another dimension, it turns out there are multiple other worlds hidden in those dimensions without anyone knowing. Their madness has resurrected all the past villains from each of those worlds. So the team programs the Omnicarrier to transport them to other dimensions. There, the team lends the main characters of those worlds their powers while borrowing theirs in exchange.

Shrek’s world.

Farquad, Fairy Godmother, Charming, and Rumplestiltskin are resurrected. They remember the last thing they thought before their demise, “Sssssssshhhhhhhrrrrrrrrreeeeeeeeeeeeeek,” they whispered in a rasping, undead hiss. The Omnicarrier takes the team to their first destination. They see a green medieval-looking planet. The Omnicarrier silently lands on the world. Their destination looks lush, green and to Cameron’s surprise three-dimensional! “Hey, it’s computer animated!” “It seems the laws of

41


nature have crossed the third dimension in this world,” Tech comments. “Now you remember what our mission is, we track down the remains of The Yinari and destroy them before they manifest into this world.” “All righty, let’s head on out!” The door opens. Suddenly, when Cameron walks out first, his whole body turns three-dimensional! “What? What’s everybody looking at? AHHH!!! My hands! My face! I’m, I’m computer animated too!” “It would also seem that we are also affected by this world’s dimensional overlay as well,” Tech explains. “It’s been ages since we’ve been in 3D. Come on out.” Gina then walks out followed by Razor as they turn 3D too. They both stretch after years of being flat. They wait for Xion but she’s scared because she’s never seen a third dimension before. “Now that you mention it, we’ve never seen Xion in 3D before.” Razor leads her outside and inch by inch her 2D body changes to 3D. Xion is very nervous as she feels her skin and face. Razor comments she looks more beautiful and Goth than ever as they kiss. They suddenly spot some people passing by, they hide and see their clothes are medieval-looking. Tech then remembers that the door of the Omnicarrier comes with a built-in clothing synthesizer that changes their clothes to whatever setting they’re in so they won’t frighten the natives. So the team goes back inside and walks through the synthesizer so their clothes turn medieval. Tech remembers one more thing, the Omnicarrier also comes with a cloaking device so it won’t attract attention. He changes the Omnicarrier into a cottage. With that done and done, the team head’s out into this strange world. “You know something? The landscaping of this place looks strangely familiar to me,” Cameron says. As they continue walking, they begin to realize that they’re in a swamp filled with insects and slugs. “Ew, I always hate swamps,” Gina said. “Oof!” They bump into Cameron as he stopped suddenly. He has a look of shock on his face. Everyone looks where he’s looking at and see to their surprise a hut built in the swamp with an old tree on the roof. “No way,” he said. “It can’t be.” “What?” “I recognize that hut anywhere.” “Looks to me like somebody lives here.” “Not just somebody! Don’t you see? The 3D medieval outlook, the familiar landscape, now this! I know exactly what world we’re in!” Then suddenly the hut’s door opens, the team takes cover as they see the master of the house exit. To everyone’s shock, especially Cameron’s, it turns out to be a great, green ogre smelling the swampy murk. Everyone except Xion is surprised that they recognize him as, “Shrek!!!” they whispered. “This is unbelievable!” Cameron whispered. “I don’t know how but we’ve landed in his own world.” “I thought he’s supposed to be just a fictional cartoon character made by DreamWorks?” Gina asks. “Which we are made by, too. So this is what the new season is about, traveling to other worlds made by DreamWorks Animation and saving them from what’s left of the Yinari.” “Excuse me,” Xion asks. “What is this DreamWorks?” “It’s a long story,” Razor responds. “What’s also unbelievable is that I was born the year of his first movie’s release and since then Shrek has been my very first favorite loveable character. I’ve always wanted to meet him.” “Well who’s stopping you?” Mech asks. “Go on right ahead.” “Hey, hey, I don’t even know what to say.” Then another character appears on the scene. “Gasp, look!” It turns out to be, “Donkey!” “Shrek! My man!” The two of them greet each other. “How you been?” Donkey asks. “Oh, the same, a little baby trouble here and there.” The team watches the two converse as Cameron watches Donkey in awe. “I can’t hold it in. I’m actually twelve feet away from my two all-time favorite characters!” “Ooh, I bet if he sees us, he’ll say that one line, WHAT ARE YOU DOING IN MY SWAMP!!” Mech shouts which gives away their cover. Shrek and Donkey look at the team as they freeze in fear. “Er, hello? May I help you?” Shrek asks. The team stands in nervousness while Cameron has his back turned at them. They turn Cameron around as he very nervously stares at his stars. “Well speak up. You never seen an ogre before?” “Maybe they’re one of them weird silent mime troupes,” Donkey suggests. “Um, uh, er, well, I, uh,” “He’s your biggest fan!” Mech exclaims. Shrek looks at him weird. “Oh yeah? Well I am well known around these parts and the only fans I’ve seen were wild and crazy ones who’ve never stopped bugging me and you don’t look much wild or crazy so that kinda narrows it down.” Cameron is still petrified before him. “Speaking of which, I ain’t never seen you lot around here before. You move here?” “Well you could say we’re wanderers,” Gina answers. “That’s right,” Tech concurs. “We have come here to investigate strange occurrences that have happened recently in your

42


world, er vicinity. You wouldn’t happen to have witnessed any, have you?” “Well nothing that strikes me,” Shrek answers. “If by strange you mean Pinocchio keeping something big and weird locked up in his closet, there’s that,” Donkey comments. “But other than that everything’s just normal,” Shrek continues. The team looks perplexed. “Well we’ll just be on our way to search for more leads, good day,” Tech says as they begin to leave. Then another person comes out of the house, to everyone’s surprise it’s, “Fiona, my dear.” “Ah, there you are, princess.” “Good afternoon, Donkey. Oh, and who are you kids?” As always, they’re speechless. “They say they’re private eyes investigating strange happenings in our neck of the swamp,” Shrek said. “Strange happenings? Like what?” “Just strange stuff.” “Well we haven’t seen any of the sort but feel free to continue searching.” “Quite so, we’ll just be off then,” Tech and everyone begin to leave. “Oh wait, you must be new here. I never let any newcomers go without giving them a proper welcoming committee. Do come inside and I’ll fix you up with my fresh muck mire tea and cockroach crumpets.” The team is more nervous while grossed out, they try to make a break for it but Fiona leads them inside their hut. The team sits at the den while figuring out what to do. “This is bad,” Tech responds. “Our mission strictly forbids us making any contact with other-worlders, especially fictional ones. We cannot let anyone know anything about us, who we are and where we’re from. Or else it’ll completely disrupt the balance of this world.” “If you ask me, I think you worry too much,” Mech says. Shrek and Fiona return with a plate of her cockroach crumpets and mire tea. The team becomes nervous and disgusted at the palate. “So first things first, my name is Fiona and this is my big, strong hunk of green love, Shrek. What’s your names?” “I’m uh, Gina.” “Razor.” “Xion.” “Mech and Tech.” Cameron was still too petrified from speaking in the presence of his biggest stars. Fiona and Shrek look at him weirdly. “He’s Cameron. He’s a little shy,” Mech answers. “I’d hardly say little,” Shrek comments. “So besides investigating, what else can you tell us about yourselves?” Fiona asks. The team looks at each other nervously. “Um, that’s strictly on a need-to-know basis,” Tech said. “Yeah, we wouldn’t be called private eyes if you know all about us, would we?” Mech continues. Fiona and Shrek look at each other strangely. “Well if you’re not gonna tell us who you are and what you’re really doing,” Shrek says. “Then that very well raises a heck of a lot of suspicion, doesn’t it?” “Now dear, they can’t really be looking for trouble in our neighborhood.” “Of course we’re not,” Mech replies. “We’re just a bunch of teenagers scouring your home for any baddies who want to tear up your peace and give them a real beat-down.” Tech shuts his trap. “You mean to say you’re a sort of crime-busting gang?” Shrek asks. The team looks ashamed. “You don’t look much like one, you look more like a bunch of…

Video Game: DreamWorks All Stars.

A big empty mysterious chamber is shown. A strange room with five strange looking rings around the walls. On the floor in the center of the room is a sixth ring. Suddenly one of the rings start to glow and hum, sparks appear and in a blast of energy, a portal opens in the ring. The rest of the rings begin to glow and portals appear on them as well. From within the first portal, a figure comes hurtling closer and closer screaming as he shoots out of the portal and crashes down on the floor in a cloud of smoke. Soon more screaming figures come shooting out of the other portals and land on the floor. Each one of them slowly rises from their rough landing. The first figure said, “Cough, cough. Ach! What kind of crazy witchcraft have I been sucked into?!” When the smoke clears, he’s revealed to be none other than Shrek, the famous green ogre who smells worse than a platoon of putrid pirates. The next figure says, “Whoa. Marty? Melman? Gloria? Penguin dudes? Watch that first step, it’s a real loo-loo.” It’s Alex the lion, King of New York and champion dancer. The next figure says, “Ooh, yes Master Shi-fu, I’ll remember to

45


duck first, then pounce before I skadoosh.” It’s Po, the Kung-fu chopping panda who’s The Dragon Warrior from The Valley of Peace. The fourth figure was taller than the rest and said, “Ow, either I’ve been abducted again or Dr. C’s working on another crazy teleporter.” It’s Susan Murphy, also known by her friends and enemies as Ginormica, the 49 ft. alien stomping giantess of Area Fifty-something. Last, the fifth figure was joined with another larger one alongside him. “Whew buddy, that’s got to be the most insane double spiral spin we’ve ever done in the history of dragon flying.” It’s Hiccup, the boy who brought humans and dragons together, and his dragon Toothless, a Night Fury who he met and together changed the whole of Berk. As Shrek tries to get his thoughts together, he realizes the strange room he’s in. “Hey now, this don’t look like me swamp.” As he walks around he bumps into someone hairy. He looks and sees he bumped into Alex. The two stare at each other and, “AAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAHHHHHHHH!!!!!!!!” the two screamed. Then the rest see each other and, “AAAAAAAHHHHHH!!!!” “AAAAAAAAAAAHHHHH!!!!!” “AAAAAAAAAAAAHHHHHHHH!!!!!!” “AAAAAAAAAAAAAHHHHHHHHHHHH!!!!!!!!!!!” “What’s all this!!!” Shrek shouted. “Am I surrounded by even weirder fairy tale creatures?” “Who you calling fairy tale, green sleeves?” responded Alex. “I’m the greatest, most spectacular lion in the whole big apple not found in any book.” “You’re a talking, naked lion, what’s ordinary about you?” Po responded. “And you’re a talking panda, in pants I might add. Now that’s really unordinary,” Susan said. “Yikes! A giant 50 ft. girl!” Alex cried. “I’ve seen this on the cheesy movies channel, she’s gonna squash us into pasty pancakes and serve us with a side of cow brain milkshakes!” “Who watches that dumb movie anyway?” Susan responded. “And besides, I’m actually 49 ft.” “Okay, okay everyone!” Hiccup said. “Let’s all just calm down and give ourselves a proper introduction while we try to figure out why we’ve been brought here and where “here” actually is.” “Ah, you look like a nice, perfectly normal lad,” Shrek said then spotted Toothless. “Look out! It’s a great pitch black savage dragon with venomous teeth!” He lunges at Toothless wrestling him around while Hiccup tries to make him stop. “Hey! Are you crazy?! That’s my buddy you’re hogtieing!” Shrek then let’s go of Toothless and is confused at what he said. “Your buddy? But that means you’re not a dragon slayer, you’re,” “A dragon trainer, the first one of my kind.” “Dragon training? Poppycock!” “Hey don’t knock it til you try it.” “Look, I’d love to learn all about this, whatever it is you do,” Po interrupted. “But all I wanna know is why I’ve been sucked through a crazy hole and landed with a bunch of freaky dudes.” “You took the words right outta my mouth,” Alex added. “But I’m no freaky than you are.” “What’s that supposed to mean?” “Pandas aren’t that fat where I’m from.” “Ooh, you did not just say that. Well lions don’t run around naked where I’m from either.” While Alex and Po were arguing, Shrek and Hiccup look at each other. “Would ya look at those two? Squabbling over clothing and weight issues.” “Well you’re no prize yourself,” Hiccup responded. “And just what are you implying?” “Oh nothing, just that they don’t go around mindlessly attacking people’s pets.” “How was I to know that that bloodthirsty, black devil was your pet?” Toothless gets angry at Shrek. “See what I mean?” “You’re just jealous that your people are too dumb to come up with training dragons instead of mindlessly slaying them.” “Them’s fightin’ words.” Shrek and Hiccup begin to argue also. Susan says to herself, “Why do I get myself into these situations?” “Could ya move outta me way, your big fat shadow is blocking me vision,” Shrek said to her. “I’m just big boned!” Susan responded. While the five characters were bickering, the sixth ring in the center of the room begins to glow. They all stop and watch it as it opens a portal on the floor. They stare in suspense as another figure comes screaming and shoots out of the portal up in the air and the portal closes before he lands on the ground. The five were frightened at what he could be. He stood up revealing to be a heavily armored figure with lights and neon tubes. He steps out of the smoke and to everyone’s surprise, it’s Cyberman, the leader of The Dream Team who traveled to each of the DreamWorks worlds and together with the inhabitants saved them from the remains of The Yinari. “Wowzers, attention passengers, we’ve arrived at our destination. Thank you for flying freaky, psychedelic airlines. Whoopee,” he rambled blurrily. They all stare at him and shout, “Cyberman!!” since they all know him. “Huh?” they said and looked at each other. He snaps

46


out of his deep funk and sees everyone. “Wha?” he said as his mask unveils. “Shrek? Alex? Po? Ginormica? Hiccup? And Toothless? What are you all doing here? What am I doing here?” “You got sucked here too?” Shrek asked him. “I was with my gang on our way to a party and the next thing I knew I was flying through a sick, funky wormhole.” “Maybe you can help me!” Alex said. “Yeah do what you do best and use your awesome, cybernetic, tripped-out stuff to get me outta this rut,” Po added. Then everyone stops and looks at each other. “Hey, how do you know Cyberman?” they said in unison. “How do I know him? He’s my best friend ever! Yours?!” “Hey everybody!” Cyber interrupted. “You’re all my best buds. I’ll be glad to answer everything you want to know, but could you not argue with each other, you look terrible when you do that.” “Okay first question,” Shrek said. “Why have we been sent through crazy holes and ended up here?” “Good question, this is a rough theory but maybe because we’ve been invited by our mysterious host to host a surprise birthday party for his niece ‘cause she must be a big fan of us?” Everyone snickers at his joke. “I’m serious,” Shrek continued. “No you’re not, you’re Shrek,” Cyber joked. Shrek slaps his hand in his face. “Remind me to rip out your funny switch.” “Sorry couldn’t resist. But seriously, this could be just your average sudden dimensional rip anomaly that takes you to who-knows-where and back again, it’ll settle down any minute. Just wait and it’ll start back up again.” They all waited. “Okay, maybe this could take while. In the meantime, what’s up everybody! Never seen you guys all together.” The game switches control to Cyber. The game tells the player how to change from Cyberman to Cameron. Once the player changes to Cameron, it tells him to walk over to each of the five characters and interact with them.

If the player walks over to Shrek, Cameron says, “Shrek, my mean green swamp machine, how’s your little fairy tale world?” “Just fantastical, the family’s just perfect, me wife’s as darling as always, and me youngling’s just got around spelling their names. Donkey, Puss, and the rest of the fairy tale gang have been giving us laughs every day of every year.” “You haven’t forgotten about us, have you?” “Heck no, since the day you arrived, every one of us hasn’t forgotten your beliefs you taught us and the great battle we triumphed. Me kids never stop jabbering about you. Although me and Donkey’s minds were still filled with digital mumbo-jumbo afterwards, we kept on thinking about deducting differential calculus and speaking technobabble for weeks.” “That’s just the way I think. Please tell me you remember our signature catchphrase.” “Dream on! That’s our favorite line ever.” “Well great to hear it. Give Fiona a kiss for me, would ya?”

When the player walks over to Alex, “Alex! Big Al, his majesty the king, how’s your crazy life in Madagascar?” “Well you’ll be glad to hear we’ve managed to escape that wild funky island but landed in someplace even more authentic, Africa. I got to meet my long lost parents and saved them from a sudden drought. But just when we decided to head back to NY, we decided to start our own crazy, whacked-out circus, how about that?” “I can see my team’s advice has gotten you to places hasn’t it?” “It sure did, we learned from you that great heroes like you never waste their time lyin’ around.” “But you certainly do.” “How’s that?” “Get it? You’re a lion lyin’ around.” “Oh! How could I miss that? Well anyway, we also never forgot your words, “Dream on!”” “Two little words that solve all your problems. Well try and see if you can use all the moves we taught you in your acts.”

The player then goes to Po. “Po! My main DW, Mr. Jelly belly, what’s shakin’ in old China?” “The usual, a few crocodile bandits here and there, various baddies messin’ with our peace, but I’m always around to fix that.” “You been getting into a few screw-ups yourself?” “What’s that supposed to

47


mean?” “Come on, you know that half of the trouble that goes on in your world is caused by you.” “That’s a 14 karat lie.” “Then how do you explain the time you and the five got fired?” “Well,” “Or the time you lost your buddy Mantis in a convention?” “Er,” “Or how about when you tampered with The Yin/Yang Mirror.” “Okay, that one was me.” Cameron gives Po a stern look. “All right, all right, I did all that, but I fixed them all up in the end.” “Did you even learn anything from us to keep you from goofing up?” “Only just the awesome bits about kicking tail with dream power! Dream on!” “That’s just what I wanted to know.” They high-five.

Next the player goes towards Susan. “Well if it isn’t the big one, the supersized Barbie, the queen of the monsters herself, ladies and gentlemen, please give it up for, Giiiiiiiiiiiiiiiiiiinormica!!! Whoo hoo! Bravo! Bravo!” “Hee, hee, no really Cameron, I don’t deserve all those fancy titles.” “Aw, come on, who’s the girl who could carry 50 tons of overweight elephants from Kenya to Zimbabwe? And who took on a whole mess of mutated vegetable products with her bare hands? And do I need to ask who in their right mind has the gall to totally wreck one of America’s largest bridge structures?” “Okay, okay, you got me, I’m the girl.” “Ahem, swagger, swagger.” “I mean, that’s me, the super maxed-out heavyweight titanic mother of mayhem! Whoo!” “Now that’s what I’m talking about. So, how’s life in the ginormous lane, Big G?” “Pretty sweet with me and my monster buds. But what’s not so sweet is me and the team are actually living with aliens in our base. I don’t trust them as far as I can throw them.” “But I bet you can throw them pretty far.” “Yeah I wish. Oh, and I just learned a new trick too. First, I imagine I’m as small as a cute happy butterfly and then, going down!” In a glow of green quantonium, she shrinks down to Cameron’s size. “Jiminy crisscross! You just lost 10 tons in 5 seconds!” “And that’s not all, I can also imagine I’m as massive as a buff towering T-rex and, going up!” In a glow, she grows back up to her previous size. “So you see, I can rampage through whole cities while reliving a normal-sized life in between.” “In other words, you can now go from big time to little time anytime.” “That’s a better way to put it. By the way, how’s G-Girl lately, I miss all the glamorous sassy action we did together.” “She’s just sensational, since now we’ve had over 30 dates.” “If you love her so much, why don’t you, you know, get hitched.” “If only it were that easy. If I even mention about proposing to her, the media will be all over us like warts on a horny toad.” “Well don’t stop trying, whenever you find your soul mate, you go straight to her and wing it.” “Thanks, Susie Q. You always make everyone feel as high as you.” “I always get high with a little help from my friends.” “Ha, ha, Ringo Starr would be suing the pants off you if he heard that. So say hi to Bob for me the next time you see him. And I will find the right time to say the word to my darling.” “Dream on.” “I see you haven’t forgotten our motto, or did you just tell me to get real?” “The first part.” “Oh right.”

He then goes over to Hiccup and his dragon. “And here he is, the boy who discovered the secret life of dragons, the first Viking who touched the skies, and not to mention a darn good tinker.” “You always crack me up with your wisecracks, Cameron.” “And who do we have here? It’s your big black Night Fury amigo, Toothless!” Toothless bowls Cameron over and licks his face. “So what’s the haps in big ol’ Berk?” “Well, our village continues to flourish with our dragon brethren, our training academy is the pride of our unity, and our defeat of Dagur the Deranged and his outcasts have made our island 100% safer.” “You and Toothless have devised any new tricks?” “The question is what haven’t we devised. We have done over 50 different flight styles, 35 attack maneuvers, and cooked 10 dragon cuisines.” “Those are tricks?” “Well no, but we’ve served over 40 million customers so that’s credit for ya.” “I can see you’ve got your work cut out for you. Don’t you ever have time to chill and veg out?” “I think there was this one time we had some fun dragon sledding up on the mountains and dragon surfing at the beach.” “Good, just wanted to make sure you weren’t working yourselves to death. Did anything change since our visit?” “Absolutely, bonding with our dragons gave us a whole new perspective. Since

48


we got to see and feel exactly how they do, we began treating them with all the respect they want. And we got to play some dragon games with them too.” “Well I guess our team’s assistance had monumental results.” “You got that right. Whenever we get stuck in a sticky situation, we remember the two little words spoken by four outsiders, “Dream on”, and presto, we’re back on track.” “You the man, the dragon man. Pound it. Boom.” Then Cameron turns to Toothless. “What about you Toothless? How’s your life on Berk been treating ya?” “Growl, growl, growl, snarl, snarl, grunt, slurp, grunt, bellow, bellow, Raaaaooow!!” Cameron looks at him weirdly. “Ooookay, thank you for your comment.” “What’d he say?” asked Hiccup. “He either said his life has been changed forever since dragons have made peace with the humans or his brain has married his wallet and pineapples are fishing for Labor Days.” Hiccup looks confused. “I’ll give you one guess which one.”

All the main characters of six DreamWorks worlds have been brought together by a mysterious being to compete in a tournament: Shrek, Alex, Po, Ginormica, Hiccup and Toothless, and a surprising sixth member that they all know, Cyberman. They are each equipped with special gladiator suits. The challenges they face are obstacle courses through different locations and combat trials with many vicious opponents. They soon discover that it’s not a tournament and the being brought them together to collect their data and skills because he wants to be a hero himself. Cameron soon lays the secret on everyone that they and their worlds are all fictional created by a company, DreamWorks Animation. They all rally against him and take advantage of the powers they’ve been given. Style of Japanese superheroes. Magic words: aaaaaaAAAAAAAAAAALL STARS!!! All-star suits materialize on the team. Introduction speech:

Capes that enable them to fly. “You expect us to walk?” Shrek asks. “No mister Shrek I expect us to fly,” Cyber responds.

They are almost like The Avengers, Shrek=Hulk, Alex=Black Panther, Captain America, Po=Shang-Chi, Hawkeye, Ginormica=Ant man, Wasp, Black Widow, Hiccup & Toothless=Thor, Falcon, Cyber=Iron man, Spidey.

While Cameron defines the relationship with his own friends as amigos, he defines his relationship with his DreamWorks friends as bros, dudes and homies.

Also has unlockable characters in the game: Oscar (Shark Tale), RJ (Over the Hedge), Barry (Bee Movie), Megamind, Jack Frost (ROTG), Grug (The Croods), Turbo.

Afterwards, the team congratulates themselves. Cameron then says to everyone, “Guys, we make the greatest team in the history of DreamWorks. Ever since I watched all of you, you’ve been my greatest heroes ever. I wouldn’t have been inspired to become Cyberman if it wasn’t for each one of you. Shrek,” he said to him. “You may be a big, smelly, mean ogre sometimes, but you have the heart of a person who cares about his family and friends more than anything. Your kindness has inspired me to be kind to everyone as they do to me. I’m known as the happiest superhero on earth because I always greet and help people with a cheerful face, although people can’t see my smile under my mask. But I continue to express my kindness and gratitude to the whole world like you do.” “Well, now that’s just the way I do things in my home town too.” He then turns towards the player. “If you want to be a true hero, you gotta show kindness to everybody. For it is the path to a sweet, happy life. If you show everyone that you’re the happiest, friendliest guy in town, although it may not get you more stuff, it will get you more friends. Like me and my best furry pal Donkey, he taught me all I need to know about controlling my temper and showing kindness to my family and friends. Yet he still drives me spare sometimes, but other than that I wouldn’t hurt a fly.” He then sees a fly buzzing by. He suddenly grabs it at eats it. “Err, other than eating one. BURP!” He and Cameron laugh as Shrek slaps him on the back.

“And Alex, despite you being full of yourself, you’re braver than a toy boat in a hurricane. Your courage has inspired me to shine through the toughest battles no matter what happens. Whenever my team’s scared, I lift their spirits by showing them the light side of our situation and they spring right back up into action. I learned it all from you.” “You got that right; I’m so brave I make Superman look like a wimp.” “Uh, Alex.” “I can stare a hoard of vicious man-eating giants into the eye and make them run away weeping.” “Alex, you’re doing it again.” “Oops, somebody’s gotta pinch me when I start doing that. Anyway, you’re right, courage is one of the most important aspects of a true hero,” he said to the player. “You’re gonna need it if you want to do the right thing no matter how hard it is. Whenever you’re surrounded by impossible odds or tough situations, always remember that as long as you’re brave enough to know what’s right, you do it. The king of the beasts never cowers before anyone, he just braves through his opponents like butter. If you can do that, you’ll be as brave as a courageous lion like me, roaaar!!” he said as he did his signature pose. The two laugh while they share a fist pound.

50


“Po.” “Yeah?” “Although you kinda are dumb and make others want to bash you in the face, you got the most determination and endurance than all the Kung Fu masters combined. You taught me to follow my destiny wherever it takes me, to carry on through the heaviest storm or the rockiest road. Me and my mates follow towards our destinies to become the greatest heroes ever dreamt up, and are still doing it, thanks to you.” “Hey, you didn’t mention my bodacious, awesome WA-ZAH!! My super mega ultra POW! BOOM! SKADOOSH!!” “You have no idea what I just said.” “Said what? Ha ha ha! Just kidding! You’re right, I do carry on towards my own destiny, and so should you. Heroes never run away from their own stories, you just keep on doing what you think is right no matter how crazy it is. If you have a quest or a certain goal ahead of you, you never stop pushing yourself in the right direction, and if you fail at first, keep on trying until you fulfill your own destiny. In my case, I had a destiny that I would become the legendary Dragon Warrior and defend The Valley with my unbeatable kung-fu, and I fulfilled it too. So if you put your mind and skills to it, you’ll kung-fu chop right through solid buildings! Skadoosh!!” Cameron and Po laugh and give a big, awesome high-five.

“And how could I forget you Ginormica? No monster or alien in the whole universe could match your giant beauty. You have the heart and passion of a true defender who loves her friends, family and planet enough to guard it from all extraterrestrial scum. The way you enlarge yourself and smash, clobber, and kick alien butt made me instantly fall in love with you.” “Oh, Cameron.” She picks him up with her giant hands and hugs him tight. “That’s the most sweetest thing anyone has ever said to me.” She then kisses his whole face with her big mouth. “Uh, hey Susan!” he said as she was squeezing him. “Why, if you were only 50 feet taller I’d carry you away myself and we’d elope to gay Paris where we’d have our own giant house with a thousand yd. garden and-” “Susan!” “Huh? Oops!” She shrinks down and lets him go. “Sorry, I get so carried away I tend to wander into my own romance fantasies. And besides, I don’t think your girlfriend Gina would approve.” “What I mean to say is your love taught me that my love for my family and my best friends give me strength. Like my gal, Gina. Her beauty, smarts, and strength and my super hi-tech technology have gotten us both in head over heels and together our love for each other has made us untouchable.” “You’re absolutely right; all heroes should focus on fighting for the ones they love. No matter how rough or tough you are, you should always remember who you love and care about, for they are your true strength. Even though I got conked by a meteorite and blown up to 49 feet, I continued to love my family and my new friends which gave me the will and strength to keep on living and to protect them all from evil from outer space. You should never stop loving for love conquers all. It’s easy, ‘cause All you need is-” “Don’t even mention it. The budget’s high enough.” “Love can also make you feel like you’re 50 feet tall too!” she said as she grows to 49 feet. She looks at herself. “Darn! Still always one foot short.” They both laugh then the two of them hug and Susan kisses Cameron on the head.

“And last but so not least, Hiccup, when I first saw you I immediately thought you were the type of kid who desperately needed a friend and when you met Toothless, I instantly realized you found one. For friendship goes beyond any boundary, your friendship inspired me to lend a hand to everyone no matter what they are. Like my amigo Razor, just because he’s dark and evil-looking doesn’t mean he doesn’t deserve an amigo. After all, me and my gang’s friendship is what makes us The Dream Team.” “I couldn’t agree more, no true hero can get by anywhere without help from his friends. Friends can make you feel like you can move mountains, fly high in the sky, and knock over a whole army. Without Toothless by my side, I’d be just a sandwich with no meat, a boat with no sail.” “A guy with one leg,” Cameron added. Hiccup glares at Cameron. “Whoops, no offense.” “You can never have too much friends, ‘cause whenever you’re down, friends are always there to pull you right back up. I love my scaly, fiery Night Fury buddy as if he was my own brother.” “Not unless you stand the smell and fire breathing,” Cameron added. Toothless whacks him with his tail. “Joking, joking. Jeez you reptiles can’t

51


take a joke.” Cameron and Hiccup laugh then shake hands while Toothless barges in and licks Cameron’s face.

Cameron looks at everyone all teary-eyed and says, “You guys, my heroes, are the best friends a kid like me could ever have.” “I think you’re missing one more person you should be thanking, yourself,” Shrek said. Everyone else agrees. “You’re our hero too.” “Yeah, who could not notice Cyberman, the digital dude, the robot who rules, the computer who walks?” Alex continued. “You’re the greatest, most powerful hero than all of us put together.” “If it wasn’t for you, we’d all still be fighting amongst ourselves, lost in our own greed, forgetting who we are and what we represent,” said Po. “You were the one who reminded us that we’re already heroes and together we can become something more, something greater,” explained Susan. “We wouldn’t be anything if we didn’t have you as our best friend,” Hiccup continued. “You’re the centerpiece to our unity, the heart of the star keeping the points together, you taught us that with our powers and hearts united, we can become,” “The DreamWorks All Stars, check it!!!” they all shouted and did their cool team pose. Cameron is touched. “I love you guys.” Cameron runs towards Shrek and hugs him. “Hug pile!” shouted Alex and steps in and hugs Cameron, then Po, then Hiccup with Toothless, and Susan picks everyone up and hugs them. “Best friends forever?” Cameron asked. “BFFs,” Alex agreed. “No hard feelings about not getting the ultimate prize?” “You’re the only ultimate prize we got,” Shrek answered. “Let’s hear it for Cyberman! The greatest all-star of us all!!” “CYBERMAN!!! CYBERMAN!!! CYBERMAN!!!” they shouted as they tossed Cameron up and down in the air. Later, Cameron gave to everyone special star-shaped pendants that keep their all-star powers sealed so they won’t be tempted to use them in their own shows. They can also use them to contact each other if they want to get the gang back together. Cameron got the portals that brought them here working to take them all back to their homes. Each one of them stands before their designated portal and before they leave Cameron looks back at everyone and so do they. He gives everyone a wink and a thumbs-up. They all do the same. They all step through the portals and disappear.

At the end credits of the game, they all get together to sing a happy buddy song in traditional Broadway style, “We travel along, singing a song, side by side.”

They are all dressed in tuxedos with top hats and canes. Cyber sings the first three stanzas.

Applause with flowers thrown at them while team bows.

Sequel: DreamWorks’s Legends.

Our game begins on a dismal day at Shrek’s swamp home. “Whew, I’m bored,” narrated Shrek. Shot of Shrek lying back in his chair on his front porch bored out of his skull. “Nuthin’ to do but sit around wastin’ the hours watchin’ the mold grow over the porch and the mosquitos dancing in the murky mists. Ever since me and me family had gotten peace of mind, all the excitement has gone away from me own life. The writers at DreamWorks must be sleeping on the job, which is probably why nothing’s happening to me. I sure wish something unbelievable would just pop up, like another wild and dangerous quest, that’ll sure be something to kill the time. Sigh, but what are the odds? Bored, bored, bored, bored, bored.” Then we switch to the zooster’s circus train strolling through the country. “Man oh man,” narrated Alex. Close up of Alex sitting by himself watching the scenery pass by. “Ten straight weeks of nothing. Our whole franchise must be on hiatus or something. If I go on one more day of total zilchness, I’m gonna grate my brain into shredded parmesan. I sure wish I could do something mind-blowing like save the train from crashing into another train or fighting off crazy rabid bears. Sigh, but we’re in the middle of nowhere. Bored, bored, bored, bored, and bored.” Next we see The Jade Palace overlooking The Valley of Peace in China. “Great, just great,” narrated Po as he sits beside Master Oogway’s peach tree playing with the fallen leaves. “There hasn’t been a break out of baddies for days, or was it weeks? What if my show’s been canceled!? Nah, none of us would still be ticking if it was. I’ve done nothing but sit here watching the sun pass by and eat loads of buns and noodles. All the baddies have been locked up or buzzed off so Master Shi-fu told us we deserve a long break, but not this long! Sigh, why can’t just one villain appear so I can get out of this slump? Some villain, any villain. But nooo, they’re just too lazy to spring any crimes while I waste away bored, bored, bored, and did I mention, BORED!!” Outside of Area fifty-something, Susan (AKA Ginormica) is lying back on the hot desert ground watching the sky. “I can’t take this anymore. We haven’t had a mission involving aliens, monsters, or any extraterrestrial hoo-ha for a whole month. All we’ve been doing is sit, lie, and sleep all day. If what Cameron said is true and we’re all living in a cartoon show, I ought to call the producers and ask them why nothing’s going on, if I knew how to reach them that is. What I wouldn’t give for a power-mad alien conqueror invading this boring rock instead of just lying around playing spot the buzzards. Sigh, if I keep lying here I’ll bake into a giant hotcake for a whole flock of buzzards to chow on. Another same old case of bored, bored, bored, bored-itis.” Last we see Hiccup’s house on Berk with Hiccup and Toothless lying up on the roof. “Day seven of perpetual nothingness. Everyone in our village has had zero problems longer than I can remember. They’re all up to date with their dragon training, all the dragons have been following the rules, and we haven’t had any attacks so much as threats from any neighboring

54


Viking clan. It’s logical that the inactivity of our village is due to the show being off air. The only thing that can break us out of this do-nothing coma is if the whole island was sinking and I had to plug up the leak. Sigh, now I’m thinking crazy thoughts. Just sitting here bored, bored, bored,” We cut to each of the previous characters sulking. “Bored,” “Bored,” “Bored,” “Bored,” “Bored,” “Bored,” “Bored,” And suddenly a ringing sound silences their complaining. “AHHH!!” they shouted in surprise. “That sound,” said Shrek. “Could it be?” asked Alex. “It is!” shouted Po. “He’s back!” cheered Susan. “Just what I need to escape this dull and boring world,” Hiccup said. “Cameron’s getting the gang back together!!” they all shouted. They each pull out their All-Star pendants Cameron gave them and held it in front their faces, then a holographic picture of Cameron’s face appears from the pendant along with the faces of the other all-stars, (similar to Skype.) “Hidey-ho fellow All-Stars!” “Cameron! Just the person I need,” said Shrek. “I thought I was gonna die from boredom,” continued Alex. “Haven’t seen you for like forever,” added Po. “What brings you to our little worlds?” asked Susan. “Is there trouble happening in your world and you need our help to take these creeps down?” asked Hiccup. “No, better, I have called you all because I just got a call from the executive producers of DreamWorks that we are all gonna star in our very own brand new video game sequel!” “A sequel! Awesome!!” Po cheered. “I haven’t gotten over the excitement from the first game but I’ll bet this new one will be twice as righteous,” Alex commented. “Terrific, meet me at our secret clubhouse in the dimensions between our worlds and I’ll tell you all about it. Use your pendants to open up a portal and hop in for one sweet ride.”

The team holds their pendants and a beam emits opening a portal into the dimensions between. They all get ready. “One for the money!” Shrek said. “Two for the show!” Alex said. “Three for the food!” Po said. “Four for the action!” Susan said. “Five for the cool!” Hiccup said. “Six for the fans!” Cameron said. “DreamWorks All-Stars are go!!!” they all shouted as they jump through the portals. Once inside, they find themselves surfing through the vortexes of their worlds along to the song “Blow your speakers out” by Big Time Rush. The vortexes are an amalgamation of all the material from each of their worlds. Shrek surfs through a vortex of swamp trees and medieval castles while passing by fairies, bugs, and knights. Alex surfs through a vortex of Madagascar jungles, African savannahs, and circuses while lemurs and acrobats pounce and leap around him. Po surfs through a vortex of Chinese forests and villages while using his kung-fu to smash through walls in his path. Ginormica surfs through a vortex of secret military bases mixed with alien planets and outer space while dodging UFOs and alien robots. Hiccup surfs while Toothless soars through a vortex of high cliffs and raging seas with Viking ships blasting cannons and lots of dragons flying and spewing fire. And last Cameron surfs through a vortex of city streets, when it changes to cybernetic grids and machinery, he pounds his fists shouting “CYBER-TIZE!!” and in a flash of lighting and lasers, Cyberman is in the house slaloming through the computer vortex. The surfing path twists, turns and loop-de-loops but the gang still hangs ten. Shrek grabs a sword and slices through a row of knights which topples over like dominos creating a huge hole in the wall blocking his way. Alex jumps through circus hoops and swings on trapezes while the crowd applauds. Po surfs along pools lined with blossoms and rings a giant gong just for kicks. Susan sees that there’s a gap in her path so she steps on UFOs and skids on robots and makes it back on the track while the UFOs and robots explode behind her. Hiccup sees trouble ahead, a barricade of heavily armed Viking ships blocking his path. He just smirks and jumps up high and lands on his buddy to evade them but now a horde of vicious dragons are heading towards them. They dodge and miss their fiery breath safely. Cyber electrifies the whole grid with his presence, he lights a path in the shape of his insignia, and lights a huge beacon starting a major lightshow. Each of the six hero’s tracks soon lead towards each other. The tracks begin to spiral down like a funnel. The gang spots each other and is delighted to see each other again, while they spiral down the funnel they all high-five each other passing by. At the end of the funnel the six tracks lead the team to a big final drop-off. They all jump off the ramp and fly in midair in slow-mo. They then dive towards the ground and somersault before landing on the ground to the beat of the song

55


at their destination, their secret clubhouse. Finally they all sing the last verse of the song, “Gotta crank the music loud, baby blow your speakers out, blow your speakers out!” Then the DreamWorks All-Stars logo appears in front of them.

The team cheers and gives each other high-fives, fist pounds and hugs. “Whassup my animated acrobatastic crew!” Cyber said in gangsta lingo. “What it is!” replied Alex. “What it was!” added Po. “What it will be!” added Hiccup. “Haven’t hung out with you dawgs in a few millennia.” “I’ll say, I been so wrapped up in my little village I almost forgot who were the ones who saved the six worlds from total chaos,” Po said. “Yeah, so now that we’re all assembled, what you all been up to? How goes your own franchises?” “Well not much, mine’s been on hiatus for what felt like three dark ages,” Shrek said. “Me too,” added Alex. “Me three,” added Po. “The nearest event that’s happened in my world is Bob accidentally setting the base in lockdown, again,” Susan commented. “You think that’s dismal? My buddy Fishlegs has spent two days alphabetizing all his clothes, including his underwear,” Hiccup commented. “Heh, that’s nothing,” Alex scoffed. “My world’s been so slow, it makes turtles look like racers.” “Oh yeah? Well my world’s so stiff, even the clocks are too lazy to work,” Po boasted. “You’re all a bunch of wee namby-pambies. One day living in my bored stiff town will turn your brains to pond scum,” Shrek boasted. “All right, all right already,” Cyber interrupted. “It seems we’ve all been living in a decline. But I promise you that this new game will rock all our worlds like a mess of ravenous hurricanes.” “But what’s it about?” Susan asked. “Well actually, I have no idea.” Everyone frowns. “The bosses never told me. But all I know is that it’s so revolutionary, so gargantuan, it’s gonna make the first game look like a b-movie.” “Great, so when do we start?” Po asked. “Hold up there, I think you’re forgetting the most important team member of us all.” “Uh no, I’m talking to you,” Alex said. “No, no, no. This person goes beyond all of us. Without him, we’d be total losers.” “I don’t follow,” Susan said. “Him! The guy watching us right now!” “Oh right, the player! How could we forget him?” Shrek said. Cyber walks towards the screen and addresses the player. “Hey fellow video game whiz, you ready to start the biggest most intense gaming of your life? I know we are, aren’t we?” “You got that right, time to show us what you can do,” Shrek said. “If you haven’t forgotten all the lessons we taught you last time, you’re probably a professional firefighter by now right?” Alex joked. “Pay no attention to them, I’m the one you should focus on using to beat up the baddies and win the game,” Po said. “Ahem!” said everyone as they stared at Po. “Hee, hee. Just a tip.” “Well I hope that you’ve been a very good kid this year. You did remember to do your homework before playing this game right?” Susan asked. “All me and my buddy wish for is for you to make us look like the most awesome video game characters ever played with, don’t we boy?” Hiccup asks. Toothless nods. “Well now that we’re all acquainted with our fellow controller, now’s the time where we get started with our adventure,” Cyber said. Everyone agrees. “DreamWorks All-Stars, let’s motor!” “YEAH!!” Then they all stop and look confused. “Er, how do we start anyway?” Hiccup asked. “Oh I forgot, we enter that dimensional portal which takes us to our destination where the story takes place. But before that, the player can have a look around our clubhouse,” Cyber explained. Then control is switched to Cyber. The player can wander around the clubhouse which holds bonus material, system settings, and saved games before entering the portal.

The All Stars are back, this time they’ve been transported to another dimension; medieval-like with knights and castles except with an alien and robot twist. All the inhabitants speak in Shakespeare-type English and the team has to speak like that so they can understand them. The team somehow resembles the legendary ones from this dimension’s prophecy, they were said to have defeated the madness from taking over their world many years ago. The villagers think they have returned once more to save the kingdom from the evil dark knight, Necros the Unnatural. They show the team the cave where the legendary one’s six swords are kept in stone. The team asked if they’re encased in stone because no one had the strength to pull them, but the villagers said no because they’re all dangerous, unsanitary and useless. The first one was so filthy and gross no one dared to touch it, one was so wild and filled with

56


noises of animals no one could pull it out without being driven mad, one was so rambunctious and beat people around no one could withstand it, one was so huge and heavy no one could possibly pull it out, one was so blistering hot no one could pull it out without getting burnt, and the last one was different from the rest because it simply had no blade so it looked useless. In this game, the team gains a new power: Legend, they become like knights in shining armor with their own swords and horses. They soon become brothers-in-arms or in this case, bros-in-arms. Instead of capes they have angel wings to fly. Their special attacks are similar to their old ones but their titles are in different foreign languages.

Sir Shrek the Filthy: Stinkalibur- Shrek was the only one who was as rancid and stinky as the sword so he was the rightful wielder.

They sing a ballad of their battles according to Tenpole Tudor’s “Swords of a Thousand Men” titled “The Ballad of The DreamWorks Legends (Hoorah, hoorah, hoorah, yay.)” They each sing seven stanzas talking about how they showed off their stuff during the battles. Cyber is on the electric guitar, Shrek is on bass guitar, Alex is on keyboard, Po on the drums, Susan on tambourine, and Hiccup on a traditional Berk banjo while Toothless spews out flames for special effects.

Cyber: We art The DreamWorks Legends! Art thou ready to ROCK!!!!

“Hey everybody it’s Cyber and his band, me and my crew pursued daring-do throughout the land, in a long, awesome fight we valiantly prevailed, so sit back and hear all our big, tall tales!”

“Feel our powers! Hear our roar! We’re gonna kick your butts in and so much more! Hoorah, hoorah, hoorah, yay! Over the hill came six cool DreamWorks Legends!”

Cyber: Would you have the honor of starting us off with yours, Shrek? Shrek: The honor is all mine, here we go! “We met the dark soldiers one fateful night, they were itchin’ and naggin’ for a big bad fight, me and my might they decided to usurp, so I screwed up my face and gave a massive loud (BURP)!!!”

“Pew, that reeks worse than 50 yaks! Somebody ought to give that guy a thousand tic tacs! Hoorah, hoorah, hoorah, yay! Over the hill belched one stinky DreamWorks

Legend!”

Alex: You call that awesome? Wait til you hear about how I showed ‘em my business. “I pounced like a vicious cat on steroids, and clawed at those tone-deaf freakazoids, but they kept comin’ at me like flies on taffy, so I let out a ROAR! and they wee, wee, wee’ed!”

“Run, run away! Here comes the king! He’s gonna fill your booties with tons of biting! Hoorah, hoorah, hoorah, yay! Over the hill roared one wild DreamWorks Legend!”

Po: All right! It’s my turn to shine in the spotlight. Listen up! ‘Cause The Dragon Warrior’s in the house! “HI-YAH! said I as I punched their mugs, and WHA-ZAH! went my kicks crushin’ them like stinkbugs, my inner peace fury I did unfurl, there were 50 less creepy soldiers in the world!”

“Wow he’s hot! Man he’s cool! Don’t ever call him fat or he’ll sit on you! Hoorah, hoorah, hoorah, yay! Over the hill skadooshed one awesome DreamWorks Legend!”

Cyber: Get ready, ‘cause here comes the guitar solo!

Cyber, Shrek and Hiccup get crazy with the guitars.

Cyber: Your turn to spill your guts, Big G! Susan: My pleasure, just because I’m a girl doesn’t mean I don’t know how to get

down! “The rest of the soldiers came after me, they thought I

58


was too puny than the other three, but what happened next right before their eyes was this puny girl got GINORMISIZED!!”

“Whoa she’s big! The tallest around! By now those losers are 50 inches in the ground! Hoorah, hoorah, hoorah, yay! Over the hill grew one ginormous DreamWorks Legend!”

Hiccup: All right buddy, we’re up next to rock the stage to pieces. Make me proud. “A bunch of nasty bullies all laughed at me, but little did they know I had a fiery buddy, together we swooped up high above the jerks, and fricasseed them which they burst like fireworks!”

“Terror from the skies! Look out below! Those two make one flame-flyin’ brotherly duo! Hoorah, hoorah, hoorah, yay! Over the hill zoomed two soaring DreamWorks Legends!”

Cyber: And now the moment you’ve all been waiting for, the ballad of the most powerful legend of all! “With my cybernetic strength I electrified, and shone my radiant valor on their sorry hides, but luckily I saved the best part for last, I erased them all with one positronic blast!”

“That’s our leader! Our number 1 friend! With him our glorious unity will never end! Hoorah, hoorah, hoorah, yay! Over the hill shined one mighty DreamWorks Legend!”

Cyber: Whoo!! What a rush! Although we won this battle, the war still rages on. But remember, The DreamWorks Legends will always be there to save the day. Let’s wrap it up, guys!

“Hoorah, hoorah, hoorah, yay! Hoorah, hoorah, hoorah, yay yay!!! Hoorah, hoorah, hoorah, yay! Hoorah, hoorah, hoorah, yay yay!!! Over the hill triumphed six cool DreamWorks Legends!!!”

They all reached the end while Po beats the drums crazy then slows down for a final beat. The crowd goes wild.

They suddenly lose their horses. They ask how they’re going to catch up to Necros now. Cameron says all he’s got are two coconut shells. And so, what they do is Cameron claps the shells together in a horse hoof beat and they all act like they’re riding horses.

They soon set up camp and have a pajama party. Cameron starts a game of Truth or Dare, he dares they all do funny impressions of people they think are so full of themselves. Cameron goes first, he turns his back while preparing. “Grr, I am Darxus, the big dumb ruler of “insert word here”. Look upon my ugly rusty old mug and despair! I’ll get you Cyberstupe and your little techno pets too, mwa ha ha ha ha! Cough! Cough! Haaack!” Everyone guffaws at him. “I got one, I got one,” Shrek said as he turns around. “Shrek, my man!” He’s Donkey. “How’s your wonderful little green family lately? Your kids old enough to catch giant slugs yet? Man oh man, wait til they get a load of my signature donkey-made waffles, mm mm!” Everyone laughs at him too. “Check this out,” Alex said. “Madagascaaaaaaaar let’s move it move it!” He’s King Julian. “Maurice, get me 50 glasses of termite smoothies all on me! Me meaning you, of course. Mort! Off the feet, never touch the king’s feet, how many times must I tell you?!” “You sound like someone who’s chock-full of himself,” Po said. “Okay folks, I’ve got a doozy.” “Panda, listen up to my wisdom.” He’s Master Shifu. “You must extend your discipline to the far planes of the

59


inner chi, let go of your materialism and only then will you become the true Dragon Warrior of legend, understood? Po! Stop munching on my rice cakes!” “Your master really expects you to do all that?” Susan said. “He tries,” Po responded. “Well he’s a softie compared to what I’ve got.” “TEN HUT MONSTERS!!” She’s General Monger. “Stop that lollygaggin’ and get yer horrible dog-ugly rears in gear ‘cause the president needs y’all to save his reelection from a hungry swarm of meteors. Head ‘em up and move ‘em out, YEEHAA!!” “I don’t think he ever said yeeha,” Cameron commented. “Well he was thinking it,” Susan responded. “I guess it all comes down to me last,” Hiccup said. “But this time, it’s a two-man impression act.” Both he and Toothless prepare themselves. “Ha! Did ya see that? I score again big time!” He’s his obnoxious friend, Snotlout and Toothless is his rowdy partner, Hookfang. “Snotlout! Snotlout! Oy! Oy! OW!!” Toothless picks him up by the pants. “Hookfang! Put me down you big dumb snaptrap!” He drops him. “How many times have I told you never grab me by the butt?!” Toothless then sets fire to his shoes. “Ow! Ow! Daddy!!” Everyone laughs and applauds at the two while Hiccup and Toothless bow.

Next Cameron dares that they each tell funny stories about their childhood. Shrek goes first. “Okay, okay. Back when I was a wee lad wearing clothes for the first time, I used to sneak out into the woods and play with the local bugs. And by play I mean using them as action figures and crayons and using their homes as potties. They should’ve known better than to live next to an ogre’s house.” Everyone laughs. “My turn,” said Alex. “I remember when I was a little cub at The Central Park Zoo melting the visitor’s hearts with my cuteness, me and Marty used to sneak into the other animal’s exhibits pulling childish pranks like doing graffiti on the rhino’s horns and the elephant’s butts and mixing the monkey’s bananas with prank bananas, they couldn’t chill out for a whole week!” Everyone guffaws. “You two were both goodie two-shoes compared to me,” Po said. “When I was a chubby little panda cub, I just loved my dad’s cooking. So much that there was no bottom in my stomach to fill it up with all his noodles and buns and other culinary masterpieces. Our shop had to close multiple times because of “unexplained” food shortages.” Everybody laughs. “You’re a real walking black hole, you know that?” Susan said. “And speaking of black holes, this reminds me of the time when I was six years old. Me and my childhood friends just saw an alien movie and they asked me if there were really any aliens out there. I thought they were all just a bunch of baloney. But then we soon bumped into our school bullies, they told us that if we don’t give them our lunch money, giant 50 foot aliens are gonna eat us all. After they mugged us, we decided to get back at them. At their homes, we set up a movie projector and placed it in front of their windows. We turned it on and they thought they saw real giant aliens outside. They ran away scared for miles without getting out of bed! Afterwards my friends asked me if it would be cool to be 50 feet tall, stomping everything in your path and getting to school in less than two steps. Deep down I thought it’d be awesome being that big, but I forgot about it when I was older.” “Well looks like you got your wish,” Hiccup said. “If only they could see me now,” Susan said. “My tale is a real shocker,” Hiccup said. “Back when I was an even scrawnier wimp than I am now, I always wanted to be a real Viking, one that slays countless dragons and doesn’t hide under the bed. During another one of Berk’s many dragon raids, I thought of using my latest but not greatest invention, a catapult that launches yak manure instead of rocks to give those dragons a taste of their own stink. Unfortunately, my aiming skills were as affective as a blind sheep’s and may have accidentally launched the manure at my father instead. He made me swab the floors in Berk for a whole month.” Everyone said ooh. “Right, have I got a topper for all of you,” Cameron said. “When I was around six or seven-ish, back when I was a mischievous little tyke, I used to pull off pranks at my primary school. One of my most infamous was the time when there was a big football game and a ballet recital. So what I did was switch the equipment and instructions from the two. Later that night, the audience almost died laughing because one, the football team was dressed in pink tutus and danced with the ball and two, the ballet dancers were heavily armored and tackled each

60


other to pieces!” After that, everybody laughed louder than a pack of drunken hyenas. “All hail the comedy king!” Shrek said. “Long laugh the king!” everybody shouted.

When it was time to hit the sack, Cameron had a question in his head that kept him from sleeping. He rolls over towards Shrek and asks him, “What do you see when you look at the stars?” “The stars?” he asked. “Well whenever I see stars, my dad told me that stars can represent famous characters from myths and stories. Like that one, that looks like my favorite ogre chasing away hundreds of frightened villagers, and that one looks like the mighty flatulent subduing a giant bloodthirsty dragon with his you-know-what.” “Heh, I wonder if there are any young heroes up there.” “Well none that I know of, but for all I know I’m sleeping next to one down here.” They laughed. “Thanks Shrek.” Cameron then decides to ask everyone else what they see. He moves towards Alex. “Hey Al.” “Hmm?” “I was wondering, what do you see when you see stars?” “What do I see? Well, let me think. To most people, they’re just balls of gas burning millions of miles. But to me, I used to think that they’re giant fireflies flying high in the sky illuminating the world with their florescent beauty. I used to see how many I could count. We hardly had any stars back in New York.” “Just helicopters, I remember.” They chuckled. When Cameron asked Po, he said, “Well I asked my dad the same question. He told me that in Chinese legend, each star is a kung-fu fighter shining across the skies watching over the valley. I thought to myself that I’d be a kung-fu master and have my own spot up there.” “Have you found yourself up there yet?” “Well not yet, probably because the sky needed to create more space for my huge gut!” The two laughed hard. Then Cameron asked Susan. “Well my friends told me that any one of those stars could be a UFO silently and maliciously monitoring our unsuspecting planet. Although I didn’t believe in them, I kept a close watch at the skies to see if any of those stars moved.” “You maybe just were looking in the wrong direction.” “20 years later, I never thought a shooting star would fall on me.” “Ouch.” Last he went to Hiccup. “According to our home’s legend, every heroic Viking that dies has his own place in the heavens battling dragons and living an afterlife of revelry and rowdiness which is portrayed in the stars.” “Well maybe by now, the dragons and Vikings might be partying together up there.” “One could only hope.” After hearing their opinions, Cameron tries to sleep but complains that he’s always freezing whenever he sleeps outdoors. Everyone else feels that way too. Susan has an idea, she scoops up everyone with her giant arms and snuggles onto them tight like teddy bears. Susan held Shrek, Alex, Po, and Hiccup with Toothless in her arms while Cameron was in the center of the group lying on her chest. She kisses everyone on the heads goodnight while humming a lullaby. They all snuggled tucked in her arms, resting their heads on her while she nestles onto them. Everyone felt nice and warm together.

When they catch up with the dark knight Necros the Unnatural, the team informs him that his time has come for his downfall at the hands of The DreamWorks’s Legends. “Now tis the winter of your butt-whooping.” He corrects them by telling them that this is their downfall. He decides to bring about his dark spell that curses any living thing into his demonic, evil minions. He turns the full moon into one giant evil eye and it shines its evil moonlight on the team. The team knows that as long as they’re wearing their armor, they’re safe, but Necros makes their armor vanish and the team becomes vulnerable. Each one of them looks at the evil moon and once they do, their eyes turn blood red and creature-like. Cyber feels very woozy. “Anybody else feeling dizzy?” “Am I the only one seeing red?” Po asked. Then glowing markings appear on their bodies and the gang writhes in agony and pain as they clutch their heads. Suddenly each one of them starts growling as their teeth turn to razor sharp fangs and their eyes start glowing a demonic red light. On Shrek, dark wild fur grows on his body as his clothes rip and his nails turn long and sharp. His muscles increased and two horns grew on his head. On Alex, his fur turned

61


dark, messy and spikey. His claws grew and so did his body mass while horns appeared on his head also. For Po, his fur, claws, and body were altered as well with the horns being added. For Ginormica, her clothes tore and her skin grew silver white fur and a tail appeared along with the horns. For Hiccup, his clothes tore revealing his skin being turned into black dragon scales. His legs then merged into Toothless’s body which made them one. Two dark wings grew on Hiccup’s back as well as the horns. Toothless was altered as well with spikes. Last but not least, Cyber’s metallic armor warped and shaped into spikes and claws while his face turned into a horned wolf’s. Necros watches them in enjoyment. Cyber rises from his agony as he gives out a massive roar/howl, revealing himself to be a cybernetic werewolf. Shrek then does the same while he pounds his fists against his chest like a savage ogre. Alex is a demonic lion with a devilish lion’s roar. Po pounds his fists on the ground as he growls like a dark, corrupted panda beast. Ginormica screeches as she’s a silver furry 49 foot she-beast. Hiccup and Toothless both let out a dragon’s bellow as they spread their wings like a dragon with a dragon-man attached to his back. The dark knight applauds at their demonic features declaring that they are now a part of his army of devils. As soon as they finish roaring, they immediately sense each other’s presence. They all pause for a moment and the werewolf Cyber growls then crouches and circles around everyone, they all do the same while snarling and growling at each other. Necros is delighted that this could result in the all-powerful Legends destroying each other in an all-out beast bloodbath. They stop circling and edge closer towards one another until they stand staring at each other. The knight was getting excited about who will give the first strike. But suddenly, they stop growling and turn their heads towards the knight. He is utterly shocked at why they’re looking at him. And then the unthinkable happened, their rage-filled growling faces turn into grinning smiles as they begin to chuckle. “Just kidding,” the werewolf Cyber whispered. They all suddenly laugh loud as they slap each other’s backs in amusement. “Psych!” said the savage Shrek. “We got ya! We got ya good!” exclaimed the dark lion Alex. “Now that was something else! We were all like, rooooaarrrr!! And then he was like, mwa ha ha ha! And now he’s like wahuuuuuh!?” the savage Po chattered. Necros feels extremely confused and can’t make sense of this. “WHAT DEMENTED MANNER OF TRICKERY IS THIS!!!!!?” he shouted in extreme confusion. “Thou art mine slaves of darkness! Thou art supposed to rampage about with chaos and death at thine sides with beastly and devilish delight!” “Yeah, about that,” werewolf Cyber said. “We got the beast and devilish delight part right but we didn’t quite get the mad rampage bit.” “You should know better than to try and place a curse on the dimension famous DreamWorks Legends,” savage Shrek said. “We knew that at some point you’d cast any of your dark spells over us, so we planned ahead and promised to each other that we’d try to resist anything you throw at us, and look at us now,” dark lion Alex explained. “At the moment we were cursed, we began to feel your dark magic injecting into us, twisting our bodies, but after that our hearts and minds stayed the same,” dark Po continued. “Once we realized we haven’t lost our marbles, Cyber gave us the signal and we performed a very convincing display of vicious, savage beasts about to pounce. I thought it was convincing, didn’t you?” Susan the she-beast asked. “So no matter what crazy dark spells you inflict on us, The DreamWorks Legends’ heroic spirits will filter them out like crud and we will always remain as heroic and true as we always have,” dragon Hiccup said. “And always will be!” they all shouted and gave out a big primal roar. “Hey now, did that come outta us?” Cyber asked.

While the team was training the civilians for battle, they seem a little wimpy and scrawny. Cyber tells them they need to be a little bit more “macho”. They have no idea what that means. Cyber and the gang decide to treat them to a little education of the word, through The Village People’s “Macho Man.” They wear workout clothes while singing the main stanzas while flexing their arms and throwing punches. Throughout the song, they put the villagers through the toughest training they’ve ever had before, putting them through weight lifting, jogging, sword fighting, martial arts, and push-ups and sit-ups. In the end the villagers are tougher and swifter and dance with the team in the song’s final verse.

The final battle involves the legends merging into a giant knight known as Zaeon the Waker.

At the end, the team gets together and sings an original song titled, “Welcome to our world.”

“If you’re down with depression, your mind in recession, we’ve got the escape you’re searching for.” “With hours of action, eons of satisfaction, we’ll sure to be friends forevermore.”

Cameron: “Welcome to our world.” “Our world.”

Shrek: “Welcome to our world.” “Our world.”

Alex: “Welcome to our world.” “Our world.”

Po: “Welcome to our world.” “Our world.”

Ginormica: “Welcome to our world.” “Our world.”

Hiccup: “Welcome to our world.”

Cyberman and his DreamWorks buddies get together to put on a show for theme park guests, a show filled with music, action, and laughs. They each sing different numbers from their favorite recording artists, they encourage the audience to stand up for what they believe in. In the end they all sing Katy Perry’s “Firework.”

(Season 4): Time travel- Jidorro of Fate, a powerful being belonging to neither yin nor yang has revealed himself to pass judgment on life on earth. Due to the negativity on earth, he finds humanity guilty for their own sins and is about to erase them from time. The team tries to stop him but he’s too powerful. Then Cyber begs him to give them a chance to show him that man has achieved more than just bad stuff throughout his own history. The team programs the Omnicarrier to travel through time throughout the history of earth while Jidorro watches them. Once they arrive at any destination, they learn that the Yangari and Yinari have been involved in all those historic events and involve themselves in those events

64


without causing any mistakes. Their mission is to prove to Jidorro that man is worth existing by showing him all of his triumphs and achievements.

So the team has to reenact the novel to knock sense into the landlord’s head. Mech and Tech are Marley, Cyber is Ghost of Christmas Past, G is Present, and Black is Yet-to-come.

The future- The team arrives in the far future to see humanity’s outcome. There are two outcomes, one is a beautiful utopian metropolis where the earth has made world peace, perfected medical science, and eliminated all negativity. It was all thanks to The Dream Team who are long gone but always remembered. Another is a dark, terrible dystopian wasteland where the earth is dank with the stench of destruction all around and humanity has gone rotten to the core while standing on the brink of extinction. Everyone has forgotten The Dream Team because it’s declared they died miserably in battle. These two are alternate realities depending on whether the team triumphs or fails so the team has gotten a glimpse of what will happen.

Final battle: As soon as they have completed traveling throughout history, they decide to give Jidorro a complete report. But Jidorro instead of being convinced to let humanity live, becomes jealous of them because they have led better lives and made more happiness than him. So he

declares to wipe them out anyway. This leads to a major battle in the time vortex. The team makes him feel the full force of history. They take him down and prove that no matter what he does, humanity will live on writing history. They prove it in the style of Billy Joel’s “We didn’t start the fire.”

(Season 5): Finale- In the beginning, someone or something has gathered all the remains and essence of The Yinari and revived them. On earth, Cameron and Razor get ready for a big tournament where they finally settle their differences once and for all. The two of them march from their homes towards the stadium along with their friends and families singing a song. The tournament contains the two of them competing against each other through different challenges to see who is better, including sports, combats, even epic rap battles. But at the final round, they are all suddenly interrupted by their old adversaries, Darxus and his creepy crew!

The Yinari are finally back and plotting a final assault. Razor and Xion suddenly break up with the team and their own family. They did that to take on the Yinari themselves and keep everyone safe for once they destroy Darxus, all the Yinari will disappear, including themselves. They knew everyone wouldn’t let them go so they wanted everyone to forget about them. Only Mech, Tech and Mosaech know about this and have promised not to tell Cameron and the rest. At that point, it’s clear that The Dream Team is no more.

Believing that he and his race are no match for the team, Darxus decides to create dark versions of Cameron and Gina: John and Cassie, making them his very own children.

The Wrath of John

John, a dark, devious, cruel counterpart of Cameron hates him because he’s a hindrance to his own existence. Cameron calls him “The me that never was.” While John calls him “loser.” When Cyber punched him, John grabbed his fist and injected a terrible, dark virus into his hand. Cyber looked and saw his hand was turned into a twisted, corrupted robotic claw. When he powered down, his hand stayed the same. John explains that this virus will spread through him twisting and destroying everything that makes him what he is and that he has a hold over him which he’ll haunt his nightmares. Cameron decided to not cyber-tize anymore to keep the virus from spreading because he knew that a virus can’t harm a computer as long as it’s shut down. The virus slowly spreads through his whole arm and his right

68


eye turns dark and corrupted. He also begins to have dark thoughts and delusions that everyone hates him and that he’s all alone. And worse, he loses all his happiness and humor. He holes himself up in his room shutting himself away from everyone while he desperately tries to find a cure. Cassie is a dark, twisted, lustful counterpart of Gina who believes she is prettier than the Universe itself but whenever she gets mad or stressed, she has psychotic, deranged tendencies like Stephen King’s “Carrie.” She torments Gina by humiliating her and taunting that she still and always will be a fat, ugly pig compared to her. Both Cameron and Gina fall into a mental coma when overcome by their humiliation. While under it, they are trapped in an endless nightmare tormented by their counterparts. With the two remaining teamsters out of commission and with John and Cassie calling the shots, all seemed lost, until two old heroes returned, Razor and Xion here to defend their only home. They also provide the answer to Cameron and Gina in their nightmare. The only ones who can defeat two dark, deranged, maniacal wraiths are two even more dark, deranged, maniacal wraiths. All this time they’ve been trying to be better than John and Cassie but the key is they have to be worse than them. That was also the main reason Razor and Xion abandoned the team, to make Cameron and Gina master their darker natures. Once the two understand this, they decide to beat their counterparts at their own game. Razor and Xion reunite with the other two, but instead they decide to reform The Black Pack. Although Cameron and Gina vowed never to use Razor’s dark powers, they saw this as their chance to master it. They return as The Black Fang and Diva. “Look out The Black Pack is back!” says Razor. “Back in Black!” says Cameron. “We’re not sinking to their level, we’re sinking even lower!” They come face to face with the two dark rip-offs and tell them that they’re both sloppy at their jobs and they can do better. They compete at who can do a better job of causing chaos and turmoil. After the two have been beaten by their own game, they become really irritated that they show their true selves, Cassie becomes a slobbering, nasty, bloated pig monster, Gina becomes relieved that she turns out to be more hideous than she is after all. And John becomes a cybernetic junk freak. The team beat them easily with their dark powers. Cassie tries to ask for help from John, but suddenly John tosses her aside saying she’s just an ugly fat pig. Cassie becomes severely devastated. She leaves into deep space, heartbroken and declaring she doesn’t care about anything anymore, she starts inflating herself to catastrophic proportions. She becomes larger than the earth. A chemical reaction begins to take place inside her, if she reaches critical mass she’ll become a galaxy-wide bomb. The team tries to reason with her that life is more important. They eventually make her understand the team and what they care about, she decides to let the team banish her to The Void to save their galaxy. Once they do, the last words she says is “Thank you” before exploding. John after being made the loser himself becomes insanely, maniacally, psychotically jealous of Cameron that he becomes a giant monstrosity made of robotic junk declaring he wishes to destroy Cameron and everything precious to him; his friends, family, and the whole world. “CAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAMROOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOON!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!” The team couldn’t find a way to destroy him. So the team decides to pull off their biggest prank of all. They lead him into space and challenge him to a final showdown. They all attack while taunting him, then suddenly John uses his entire madness to blow the team to smithereens. The team dying dramatically says their last farewells to each other and the audience. “It looks like I’m heading to the last rave party,” says Black. “Just let my parents know one thing, I left the iron on.” John becomes insanely overjoyed that he’s finally destroyed The Dream Team, but later asks “Now what do I do?” He becomes so aggravated that he doesn’t know what to do next. Later after hours of nothing, Mech accidently trips on screen, the rest of the team pull him back revealing themselves to be alive and well. While John wasn’t looking they sent him to The Void and faked their deaths. Days later John is shown to be greeting a large crowd of people like he’s their leader but another look shows he’s in the pitch black void hallucinating. He’s been driven mad with nothing. The team gives him the one thing to quell his madness, oblivion. He’s the king of his own little world now. The team celebrates their mastery over their dark powers by singing a really hard heavy metal rock classic “Party hard” by Andrew WK.

69


The Light Knight

The team hears a prophecy of a fifth member of The Dream Team, the true leader, which isn’t Cyber. They all wonder who he could be. In the end, it’s revealed to be none other than little Leland. He becomes like an opposite of Black Death, The Light Knight. Cameron becomes really jealous because all this time he was just the stand in for him, and he’s only 7 years old. Razor realizes that after all those years of kissing up to Cameron it turns out he’s no better than him. Now that Leland is the team leader it’s up to him to call the shots which makes Cameron even more jealous. Soon the team comes up against big trouble and Leland couldn’t think of anything, he realizes that being leader is a big job for him and can’t handle it. He decides he doesn’t want to be a hero anymore because it’s dangerous and he doesn’t know what to do. But he soon finds the courage to step in and save the gang. Later he decides to give his leadership to someone who truly knows how to lead, Cameron.

The Yinari prepare themselves for the ultimate final battle. They all merge into a towering titan of darkness. While the team and Yangari merge into the ultimate guardian of earth, Gaia. The team along with all the Yangari lords band together to battle against the united Yinari lords. The two titans clash climactically at each other on earth, but unknown to them, their conflict is giving off massive amounts of runoff energy being absorbed by something else. As the battle raged on, neither one of them were winning, they were doing more damage to the earth than to each other. Leland finally uncovers the truth of The Yangari and Yinari and begs the two races to stop. He reveals that The Yangari and Yinari, through all these eons, have been fighting their own half-brothers! Everyone is shocked at this. He also reveals that before their birth, the two races used to be one whole powerful race, but they were betrayed by something dark and sinister which split them into two, yin and yang. Disoriented and confused, the two races learn about themselves based on the emotions they have and had no idea about how they were born. After this controversial outcome, the team and Yangari see themselves in a completely different point of view, even the Yinari. They decide to find this being responsible for separating them because if they unite themselves with their other halves, they’ll finally achieve universal balance. They ask the Yinari to join them, most of them agree to, all except one. Darxus due to his stubborn, hateful nature refuses to believe any of it and refuses to join with his weak, pitiful side. Devastated and confused at that story, he doesn’t know what to know anymore which makes him go on a mad hateful rampage declaring he hates everything. The team tries to make him see reason but reason means nothing to him. Suddenly he fatally wounds Gina and Xion. They are slowly dying which causes Cameron and Razor to give him their final punishment to end his madness once and for all. “It is foolish of you to try to put an end to me. Hate is eternal. It exists in every living thing in the universe. And where there is hate in every heart, there will always be me. Just admit it yourselves that you hate me. After what I did to your lovers you’d be dying to tear me apart. If that’s the case, you’re no better than me!” “We don’t hate you. We pity you.” He becomes confused. “You’re just a lost, confused, misunderstood creature born with no love or friends. We’re The Dream Team, we always lend a hand to everyone, even you. Let us give you the one thing you never received.” “I’ve had enough of your nonsense!!!” Darxus does the same thing he did to their girlfriends, but then Gina and Xion recover and jump in the fray protecting their boyfriends. “Go ahead and kill me just like you always do.” “No. Not this time. This final Dream Team Beam isn’t filled with our destructive burning dreams we normally use to blow you to bits. Instead, it’s filled with our kind, caring compassion along with all our memories containing the bond we all share. We’ve decided to show you how much we care. Consider this our forgiveness.” They fire their last beam at him which causes all the memories of the team to flash before Darxus’s eyes. He sees the complete history of the team and the friendship they all share. Afterwards, he breaks down and cowers at them. “No! Stay back! Stay away!!!” But Razor goes up to him and says that he’s just like him. Darxus is confused that although he’s the ultimate king of evil, they would even forgive him. Razor teaches him it’s easy to change by singing to him what he learned from Cameron, “Put one foot in front of the other.” Even his own half-brother,

70


Rianus forgives him too. Darxus finally agrees to accept his ageless opponents and together with the rest of the united races agree to set forth into the unknown to find the real being responsible for this endless war. For the first time, the yin and yang are working together.

Final Movie.

The movie starts in the real world where millions of kids and fans gather at the cinema to watch the final Dream Team movie with its mind-blowing truth and climax. It is revealed that there is an even bigger evil that goes beyond The Yangari and Yinari, it can only be described as The Enigmatic “N”. No one even knows what N is. For all they know N doesn’t exist and they’re right. The only way to pursue it is to go to the one place where nothing exists, The Void. Cameron becomes focused on a single pencil, one with a lead tip at one end and an eraser on the other. He then figures it out. If the two races are the creators of emotions on earth then this N is the eraser who wipes matter from existence. It’s revealed that N is the one who has manipulated the two all-powerful races since the beginning. “Dial N for nothing,” says Cameron. The team along with the two united races venture deep into the inky blackness of the void to confront this N. The two lords Rianus and Darxus ask the team to promise them that if they ever die, they should take their places as rulers of the yin and yang. They start being attacked by unknown creatures who are neither yin or yang. They soon come face to face with N himself, he’s revealed to be a being with the power of nothing who has pitted the two races against each other to feed off their violent energy for eons so that he will step in and take over the whole universe. Since he is nothing, they figure that the one thing that could destroy him is a paradox. They all attack him and his army of nothings, but suddenly Rianus and Darxus get hurt trying to protect the team. They slowly die while reminding the team of their promise, they lend the last of their powers to the team before they die. Cyber eventually comes face to face with N. He reveals his true identity of what he was eons ago, a happy-go-lucky dreamer, just like Cameron! He was the happiest member of his race which were the Yangari and Yinari’s true selves. He had big dreams for their future, he planned on building a machine that absorbs emotions from lesser creature’s dreams and turn it into power for one’s self while manipulating them to do their bidding. But everyone shunned him saying it is cruel and unlawful to the universe. His dreams were crushed which caused him to go mad and betray his people by using his machine to separate his kind along with their emotions into two separate beings and turn them against each other so that he will feed on their conflict and grow more powerful than anything else. He says he is unliving, unnatural, unfeeling, un-everything and that he cannot die for he is nothing who will soon become everything. Cyber and he clashed endlessly until the rest of the team arrives. Cyber tells N that the one thing N never had were friends which makes him and the team untouchable. They all rally together to deal a united fatal blow to N. After that he seems destroyed but he suddenly reappears for he is nothing and suddenly fatally strikes at the team. The team lies dying for real in a group while remembering the moments they all shared from the time they first became heroes to today. They know that this truly is the end for them but they still keep a grin on their faces and a thumbs up even til the end. They give their final farewells to each other, their friends, and the audience. Cyber, G, Black, Shu, and Leland each hold a thumbs up high and grin at the moment they die. Then their bodies slowly fade away into light. Everyone including their family, friends, and the two races are heartbroken that they’re gone forever. Suddenly N begins to feel sudden pain, cracks of light begin to erupt on him. He stares in horrified confusion at what is happening to him. “AAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAUUUUUUUUUURRRRRRRRGGGGGGHHHHHHHHHHH!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!” He then self-destructs in a quantum paradox eruption taking out his army and empire of nothing. Everyone else realizes that it’s finally over, but at what cost. Everyone on earth mourns the loss of their heroes including their families, and the Yangari and Yinari promise to end their feud once and for all in honor of the team. But suddenly the biggest surprise happened, the camera zooms out into a movie theater in the real world, the whole audience including the kids is extremely upset at the outcome but

71


they notice a group right in front of them saying it’s not that bad. They turn around revealing to be the gang watching the movie! The audience faints that they’re real. They reveal that they had one chance of avoiding death by asking their old buddy Trip to transport them from their fictional world into the real world so that they could survive and make N destroy himself. During the making of this movie, they made a special arrangement with their creator, that they should be the ones who created the Enigmatic N! The team themselves indeed conceptualized, drew, and animated their most powerful enemy that way since he destroys them he destroys himself. Because a law of DreamWorks Animation states that an animated fictionalized character can only exist if its creator still lives to ensure its continuance. So that was the paradox they were going for. They decide to return. On earth, a memorial service is being held to commemorate the team’s death. Suddenly Cyber taps his dad’s shoulder asking how long this is going to take. Everyone is surprised to see them alive. The Yangari and Yinari are surprised too, now that N is no more they can finally reunite with each other and become whole again. But they also say that now that Rianus and Darxus are gone, the team promised they would have to take their places. The gang is confused that they’ll have to sacrifice their humanity. They think about it long and hard and have come to the decision to use their powers to resurrect the two lords. Once they are revived, the team also tells them that it’s not worth it reuniting. Earth has shaped itself over time through their separation and would carry on with them ruling it side by side. With light and dark keeping the universe in balance, they would wish for nothing else. The team and all the characters sing their version of We built this city, “We built this planet on yin and yang.” In the epilogue, the team goes about their average everyday lives by graduating from high school and finally getting married. They have finally accomplished their objective of bringing world peace but if ever there’s trouble from another world, the one and only dream team will now and forever be there. Meanwhile outside earth the two alien beings watch over the world in perfect harmony. Now that they know that earth has finally achieved world peace and harmony, they decide earth has no need for them anymore. So Rianus and Darxus decide to search for another planet in need of their influences. They each head off into the universe to find a new world with new dreamers and new villains to see which side will triumph. A time skip is shown with the team married and having children. Cameron and Gina have baby twins with their parent’s powers. But differently, the daughter has Cyber’s powers and the son has G’s. As for Razor and Xion, Razor wanted a son who’s tough like him but gets a daughter instead. Luckily for him, she has the same darkness abilities and the same grouchy attitude as her father. Their children could very well be the next generation of The Dream Team. The tradition continues!
