Flip, Yuffie, Wes, Megavolt, and Quackerjack's Sad Past/Meeting Ray and Going to the Monkey Temple

(Sheeta’s group, having themselves and Yuffie, Wes, Flip, and the Fearsome Four already introducing each other and learning of their dreams already, continued to trek along down the Yellow Brick Road through the forest, but then they noticed a huge trench with a huge center island with a huge temple in the center in the way with the other side very far away)
Pazu: What’s that trench with a center island, along with that temple in the center?
(Nemo, Icarus, and even Kiki, Jiji, and Tombo realized what it is)
Nemo: That’s King Louie and his Bander-Log’s lair right there.
Jiji: (While Icarus chirps a bit in agreement) Without a doubt.
Sheeta's Kansas group: (Confused) King Louie and his Bander-Log?
Nemo: A group of music and fun-loving primates.
Kiki: Louie, himself, is really hip for anything that interests him when it comes to having fun and wanting to sing and dance.
Yuffie: (Agreeing) Even his army like to cause mischief for the fun of it.
Popple: (Agreeing) Oh, yeah.
Wes: (Agreeing) Without a doubt.
Rika: Hold on! You said this King Louie and his Band, uh...?
Flip: Bander-Log.
Rika: Yeah, them. You said they're primates?
Sheeta's Oz group: Yes.
Flip: And King Louie is, well, an orangutan, a species of ape.
Tombo: While his Bander-Log are mostly a bunch of monkeys.
Sheeta: Well, is there a way to cross it?
Nemo: (Nods) There is.
(He points at a bridge leading to the island)
Nemo: And on the other side of this large center island, is another bridge, leading to the other side of this trench. And the only way to get there, is to go past that temple.
Tiger: (Uneasily at first) Oh, boy. (Then he got determined) Well, primates or no primates, we'll show them not to bother us!
(Sheeta's group got surprised)
Liquidator: That’s very brave of you, Tiger.
Wes: And I thought you were afraid.
James: So did I, Tiger.
Quackerjack: But shouldn’t it be fair to try and ask them to let us pass?
(A short pause, then Sheeta's group disagreed on the asking this Louie and his Bander-Log first idea with a shrug)
Sheeta’s group: Nah.
(Then they proceed to go get ready to cross the bridge. Suddenly, something moved above Sheeta's group in the trees' branches quietly, snuck up from behind Yuffie, Wes, Flip, Megavolt, and Quackerjack upon noticing something about them, and then they secretly pushed them down)
Yuffie, Wes, Flip, Megavolt, and Quackerjack: Hey!
(They recovered while looking behind them, to find nothing there, when upon patting themselves from the dirt….)
Megavolt: What the…? Where is it?
Wes: Where is it?
Yuffie: Where did I...?
Flip: Why is it...?
Quackerjack: Where is he?
(Sheeta's group got confused, even after seeing them recover from being knocked down)
B.E.N.: Where’s what?
Jiji: Your marbles?
Megavolt: No, my lucky charm!
Yuffie: Along with my lucky charm!
Wes and Flip: And mine!
Quackerjack: And my Mr. Banana Brain doll!
(Noticing four gold locket-like charms and the Mr. Banana Brain doll on the ground, Sheeta picked them up. Yuffie, Wes, Flip, Megavolt, and Quackerjack noticed them and sighed in relief as Quackerjack accepted his Mr. Banana Brain doll back)
Quackerjack: Thanks!
Yuffie, Wes, Flip, and Megavolt: You found them!
Sheeta: No problem, but what are the charms and doll about?
(Yuffie, Wes, Flip, and Megavolt quickly snatched their charms back in embarrassment while Quackerjack got embarrassed)
Yuffie, Wes, Flip, Megavolt, and Quackerjack: None of your business!
Quackerjack: (In high-pitched voice with Mr. Banana Brain) Don't ever ask that, mat.
(Suddenly, just when they were gonna resume walking to the bridge, a group of monkeys appeared from behind Yuffie, Wes, Flip, Megavolt, and Quackerjack again, and just when they did something to them again, the five busted them time, grabbing them and knocking them on the ground)
Yuffie, Wes, Flip, Megavolt, and Quackerjack: Caught ya!
(Noticing this upon hearing it and turning around, Sheeta's group went to the five's assistance. Then the monkeys mischievously recovered in an acrobatic way like the monkeys they are and jumped on Yuffie, Wes, Flip, Megavolt, and Quackerjack)
Yuffie and Flip: Hey!
Megavolt: Get your hands off us, you darn dirty apes!
(Then the monkeys happily jumped off of them suddenly, running up to the trees' vines. Recovering, Yuffie, Wes, Flip, Megavolt, and Quackerjack got annoyed)
Quackerjack: Stupid little...!
(Then Rika noticed some objects in the monkeys' hands)
Rika: Uh, guys...?
(They looked and saw, to their shock, the monkeys had successfully stolen the four charms and Mr. Banana Brain doll from them)
Yuffie, Wes, Flip, Megavolt, and Quackerjack: Hey!
Wes: Give those back, you banana-eating thieves!
(But too late, as Yuffie jumped at the monkeys after climbing up a nearby tree with her ninja skills, she missed and fell on the ground. Then the monkeys swung on the vines with the charms and Mr. Banana Brain doll in tow, deep into the deeper part of the center island's forest, apparently heading to the temple, already gone. Yuffie, Wes, Flip, Megavolt, and Quackerjack, after Yuffie recovered, stared in disbelief and got sad as they collapsed on their knees while Yuffie seated up onto her knees)
Megavolt: (Sadly) My charm was the only thing I had to remember her by….
Quackerjack: (Sadly) Same with Mr. Banana Brain for her....
Wes: (Sadly) Even my charm for her....
Flip: (Sadly) And her....
Yuffie: (Sadly) And them....
(Sheeta's group got concerned for Yuffie, Wes, Flip, Megavolt, and Quackerjack and went up to them and sat next to them)
Noibat: Who’s her and them?
(Yuffie, Wes, Flip, Megavolt, and Quackerjack just stayed quiet. Bushroot and Liquidator then tried to cheer them up)
Liquidator: It’s alright, Yuffie, fellas.
Bushroot: We’ll find you a new….
(But they noticed Yuffie, Wes, Flip, Megavolt, and Quackerjack getting sadder)
Liquidator: Sorry.
Bushroot: We're just trying to help.
(Pinocchio suddenly brightened up and tried to tickle them)
Pinocchio: Here comes Mr. Tickle Monster to brighten up your day!
(But that didn’t work either)
Pinocchio: (Confused) That usually works.
(He tried again)
Pinocchio: Hey, Yuffie, boys!
(He makes goofy faces with his fingers, but then stopped slowly when Yuffie, Wes, Flip, Megavolt, and Quackerjack still remained depressed)
Jiminy: Pinocchio, something has to be bothering Yuffie, Wes, Flip, Megavolt, and Quackerjack.
Renamon: That's without a doubt.
Jiji: (Nonchalantly) All of this over four charms and a doll?
Kiki: (In a gentle stern tone) Jiji, be nice!
(Sheeta, Rika, and Camille then spoke up)
Rika: Sorry about your charms.
Camille: And your Mr. Banana Brain doll.
Sheeta: I bet they were really precious to you five, huh?
Yuffie, Wes, Flip, Megavolt, and Quackerjack: (Sadly) Yes, they were.
(Wanting to cheer them up, Sheeta, Rika, and Camille then tried to speak up)
Sheeta: Just what’s going on?
Rika: What have the doll and charms done for you?
(Yuffie, Wes, Flip, Megavolt, and Quackerjack remained quiet and uneasy)
Rika: Yuffie, Wes, Flip, Quackerjack, Sparky, why can't...?
(Yuffie, Wes, Flip, Megavolt, and Quackerjack finally snapped in anger, shocking Sheeta’s group while Bushroot and Liquidator remained calm, as if they knew Yuffie, Wes, Flip, Megavolt, and Quackerjack’s problems)
Megavolt: Don't call me "Sparky!"
Yuffie: And you have no idea what it’s like to lose someone when you’re little!
Quackerjack: That's right!
Wes and Flip: So drop it!
(The five crossed their arms in anger. Sheeta’s group remained silent and confused)
Camille: (Confused) "Lose someone?" Is something scarring you five in the past?
(Yuffie, Wes, Flip, Megavolt, and Quackerjack scoffed, turning away from Camille while Flip pulled a cigar out, and Camille then got stern)
Camille: Something has to be bothering you. Why not talk about it? (Points at Flip's cigar) And no smoking required.
Yuffie, Wes, Flip, Megavolt, and Quackerjack: (While Flip lit his cigar) We don't wanna.
Camille: Surely, your other two friends would agree with us.
(Yuffie, Wes, Flip, Megavolt, and Quackerjack, with Flip smoking his cigar, looked at Bushroot and Liquidator upon hearing Camille say that and got agitated when the two even gave the five an annoyed “I insist you tell them” look)
Quackerjack: What's with those looks?!
Megavolt: Don’t give us those looks!
Yuffie: So stop that!
Wes: It's nobody's business but ours!
Flip: (Grabbing his cigar, letting smoke puff out of his mouth into the air) That's right!
(They still stared with that look. Even Camille is sternly insistent)
Camille: (Sternly) Yuffie, boys....
(Yuffie, Wes, Flip, Megavolt, and Quackerjack, hearing her tone, then slowly melted their anger away and finally, seeing that she insists along with everyone else, sighed sadly. Just when Camille was about to speak again, Megavolt breaks the silence finally, confessing with Yuffie, Wes, Flip, and Quackerjack)
Megavolt: Those charms and that doll were a dedication for our late mothers.
Yuffie: And my parents.
Quackerjack: They died on separate days.
Wes and Flip: (While Flip drops his cigar and crushes it with his foot after briefly getting up) Yeah.
(Yuffie, Wes, Flip, Megavolt, and Quackerjack went glum immediately while Flip sat down again upon finishing crushing his cigar)
Camille: How did your mothers and Yuffie's parents die?
(Yuffie, Wes, Flip, Megavolt, and Quackerjack sighed sadly)
Megavolt: Mine died from tuberculosis.
Yuffie: My parents died from pneumonia.
Wes, Flip, and Quackerjack: And mine from cancer.
(Sheeta's group looked at Bushroot and Liquidator)
Fievel: Tuberculosis?
Noibat: Cancer?
Renamon: And even pneumonia?
Pinocchio: (Dumbfounded) I know what cancer and pneumonia are, but what's tuberculosis?
(Bushroot and Liquidator nodded in agreement)
Bushroot: Yeah, that's what their parents and mothers had.
Liquidator: And a little education, Pinocchio, tuberculosis is a deadly lung disease that makes you cough up blood from your lungs from too much drug addiction.
Bushroot: Megavolt's mother really did try to quit. But the consequences.... She got it.
Liquidator: And surely, you know what pneumonia is, right?
Sheeta's group except Yuffie, Wes, Flip, Megavolt, and Quackerjack: (Nods) Yes.
(Megavolt nodded sadly in agreement)
Megavolt: Wes, Flip, Quackerjack, Yuffie, and I were children then. The last thing she said to me was to get a chocolate cream pie for her, because she and I loved chocolate.
(Sheeta and Rika got surprised)
Sheeta and Rika: Chocolate cream pie?
Renamon: Did you get it for her?
Megavolt: Yes. But by the time I got back….
(He sighed sadly)
Megavolt: She was gone already.
Camille: When did that happen when you were little?
Megavolt: Around the middle of June, a week after my sixth birthday.
(They looked at Yuffie, Wes, Flip, and Quackerjack, and they explained their sides as well)
Quackerjack: My mother died from stage four cancer in her throat. When I was eight years old. And as she died, she gave me Mr. Banana Brain as my belated eighth birthday gift. And just when she died, we shared a chocolate cream pie of our own as well.
Wes: My mother died from a stage four cancer in her leg when I was a tyke. And she, too, ate a chocolate cream pie with me before she died.
Flip: Same with my mother for Megavolt's case, except she died from stage four lung cancer due to....
(He sighs sadly, staring bitterly at the crushed cigar)
Flip: Smoking a lot.
Yuffie: Well, not mine. My mother, along with my father, both died from pneumonia saving my life from the harsh cold wintery lake that I nearly froze and drowned to death in.
Rika: So, basically, Yuffie, your parents gave their lives to save yours.
Yuffie: (Nods sadly) Yes. I miss them terribly.
(She tears up a bit)
Yuffie: (Calmly crying) I was really happy and blessed to be alive because of them, but another part of me wished that they could've just lived upon being saved instead like I was.
(Feeling calmly sorry with her group as Yuffie sobbed softly, Sheeta then spoke up, comfortingly patting her back gently)
Sheeta: Sorry to hear that.
Rika: And regarding about Wes, Flip, Megavolt, and Quackerjack's confession, it’s just that we were planning on having a bite to eat when we rest upon reaching the other side.
(Wes, Flip, Megavolt, Quackerjack, and even Yuffie, who calmly finished her crying and wiped her tears away, got confused)
Yuffie: (Sniffles, calmly finishes her crying) Really?
Megavolt: What kind of food?
Quackerjack: Something delicious?
Wes and Flip: Name them.
Sheeta: Apples, chocolate chip cookies, potato chips, sandwiches, and yes, four slices of chocolate cream pie.
(Wes, Flip, Megavolt, and Quackerjack didn’t react to that)
Sheeta: Bet you don’t want the slices, huh?
Yuffie: (Eyeing Wes, Flip, Megavolt, and Quackerjack) Actually, about that....
Megavolt: I still love to eat a chocolate cream pie slice at times when depressed, especially when I remember my mother.
Quackerjack: So do I.
Flip: Me three.
Wes: Me four.
Yuffie: It's true.
(Realizing Wes, Flip, Megavolt, and Quackerjack aren’t scarred by the chocolate cream pie incident, Sheeta's group calmly got relieved)
Camille: (To Yuffie) How do you cope with your parents' loss?
Yuffie: Calm meditation in the art of ninjitsu.
(A short pause, then....)
Yuffie: I am a ninja from Wutai after all. And yes, I may be a little amateurish, but I am also pretty skilled.
Camille: (To Flip) And my guess; You became a smoker because you were too consumed with grief for your mother's loss.
Flip: (Calmly amazed) That's a good guess.
(Then he got calmly sad again)
Flip: And I was serious when I said I'm trying to quit, because I knew that's what killed her.
Camille: (To Yuffie and Flip) Now we get it.
Sheeta's group except Camille, Yuffie, and Flip: (Agreeing with Camille) Yeah.
Camille: Well, want my advice to quit smoking easily?
Flip: Yes.
Camille: Try eating healthy vegetables as your addiction instead.
(Flip got calmly amazed, and then he pulled a celery stick out)
Flip: That's what I was ironically trying to be addicted to, along with drinking less caffeinated coffee while keeping my teeth white and healthy.
Camille: (To Flip, who puts his celery stick away) That's a good prerogative. (To Wes, Megavolt, and Quackerjack, also still to Flip) And as for you and the other three boys, go ahead and eat those slices.
Yuffie: If you're hungry.
(Wes, Flip, Megavolt, and Quackerjack looked at them in calm surprise)
Wes, Flip, Megavolt, and Quackerjack: Right now?
(Sheeta nods in agreement)
Camille: I’m sure you'll always keep your mothers in your memory.
Yuffie: (Getting it slowly) Like how I do with my parents, mostly my mother....
Sheeta: That's right.
Camille: Nothing to be ashamed of to remember them.
(Then Sheeta, Rika, and Camille sang their hearts out)
Sheeta: It's hard to remember
Summer or winter
Rika: When she hasn't been there for me
Camille: A friend and companion
I can always depend on
My mother
Sheeta, Rika, and Camille: That's who I mean
Camille: I've taken for granted
Seeds that she's planted
She's always behind everything
Rika: A teacher, a seeker
Sheeta: When both arms outreach her
Sheeta, Rika, and Camille: My mother
That's who I mean
Rika: Wish I could slow down the hands of time
Sheeta: Keep things the way they are
Camille: If she said so
I would give her the world
If I could
I would
Sheeta and Rika: My love and my laughter
From here ever after
Is all that she says that she needs
Camille: A friend and companion
(Feeling somewhat better, Yuffie, smiling sadly and softly, then joined in the song with them, which they let her)
Yuffie: I can always depend on
Sheeta, Rika, Camille, and Yuffie: My mother
That's who I mean
My mother
That's who I mean
That's who I mean
(The song over, Wes, Flip, Megavolt, and Quackerjack felt somewhat better with soft sad smiles, when they felt and heard their stomachs growl a bit, making them, Sheeta, Rika, Camille, and Yuffie realize along with everyone else)
Quackerjack: Uh, speaking of our chocolate cream pie memories before....
(Sheeta, hearing him say that, then pulls the four slices of chocolate cream pie out of her backpack and after removing the plastic wraps, held them out to Wes, Flip, Megavolt, and Quackerjack)
Megavolt: That looks delicious.
Flip: Freshly-baked.
Wes: And chocolatey.
Quackerjack: Mouth-watering even.
Sheeta: I wish I shouldn’t mention it, but….
Wes, Flip, Megavolt, and Quackerjack: (Guessing) Your mother made them?
(Sheeta nods sadly with a smile)
Sheeta: Yeah.
Rika: She did.
(Sheeta then changes the subject)
Sheeta: Anyway, go ahead and eat them.
(Wes, Flip, Megavolt, and Quackerack took their own slice gently as Yuffie, Bushroot, and Liquidator looked at Sheeta in confusion, with Yuffie all better by now)
Bushroot: Are you sure giving them a slice of pie of their own will…?
Pazu: That’s what they say cheers them up.
Yuffie: Really?
Bushroot: Bad idea. It might not work.
Liquidator: But what if...?
Noibat, Renamon, Kiki, Jiji, and Tombo: Don't worry.
Rika: (To Yuffie, Bushroot, and Liquidator) Never doubt Sheeta or us. (To Sheeta) Right?
(Sheeta nods at Rika in agreement. Wes, Flip, Megavolt, and Quackerjack looked at Sheeta in silence, then they sighed sadly while looking at their own slice they’re holding. Then they both took a bite on their own slice, chewed, and then swallowed. They narrowed at Sheeta sadly)
Megavolt: It is delicious.
Quackerjack: Just like how she made them.
Wes and Flip: Yeah.
(They then took another bite of their own and ate them as well. Then after their own third bite, chewing, and swallowing, tears flooded their eyes and spilled out of their eyes, which made Flip's makeup run on his cheeks, much to Sheeta's group’s calm concern. Despite fighting the urge to cry, they finished their own slices off and swallowed them as more tears streamed down and exposed Flip's makeup-free tear-stained cheeks. Suddenly, Wes, Flip, Megavolt, and Quackerjack started to cry their eyes out, letting their bottled emotions out)
Bushroot: (To Sheeta in concern) That pie trick didn’t work. I told you.
Liquidator: We knew that'll....
Yuffie: Hush up.
(As Wes, Flip, Megavolt, and Quackerjack continued to cry while Bushroot and Liquidator did what Yuffie ordered, Sheeta, Rika, Camille, and even Nemo and Yuffie then hugged them respectively in comfort while Jiji nuzzled them in comfort and Renamon, Mushu, Cri-Kee, Icarus, and even Bushroot and Liquidator patted them on the back, surprising the four, despite that they’re still crying)
Camille: There, there, Wes, Flip, Megavolt, and Quackerjack.
Nemo and Kiki: No need to cry anymore.
Sheeta: We’ll just head on over to the temple on that island instead and get you and Yuffie's charms and Mr. Banana Brain back.
Camille: Yes, just let it all out.
(The rest of Sheeta's group and even a sympathetic Tiger agreed)
Wes, Flip, Megavolt, and Quackerjack: (Crying) Thank you.
Megavolt: (Crying) And actually, Bushroot and Liquidator are wrong. (Sniffles) Wes, Flip, Quackerjack, and I are starting to feel better from those pie slices.
Wes: (Crying) He's right. (Sniffles) It never felt so good, palsies!
Flip: (Crying) Nobody ever sympathized us!
Quackerjack: (Crying) And even if we are crying, (Sniffles) it really brought back happy memories of our mothers!
(They sobbed some more as they hugged Sheeta, Rika, Camille, and Nemo back respectively. After their crying calmed down and they began wiping tears away with their hands, with Flip smearing some more of his makeup around his eyes, while sniffling, Yuffie, Bushroot, and Liquidator suddenly got surprised calmly, seeing Wes, Flip, Megavolt, and Quackerjack starting to feel better. Camille and Sheeta then respectively pulled a mint green handkerchief and light green handkerchief out of their skort pocket and pants pocket and held them out to Quackerjack and Megavolt respectively while Wes and Flip pulled their own handkerchiefs out)
Sheeta: Here.
Camille: Go ahead and blow.
(Megavolt and Quackerjack calmly accepted the handkerchiefs and blew their noses on them while Wes and Flip blew their own noses on their own handkerchiefs. Afterwards, they wiped the last of their tears away from their own eyes with them, while Flip also cleaned the rest of his ruined makeup off and then Megavolt and Quackerjack were about to hand the handkerchiefs they have back to Sheeta and Camille while Wes continued to wipe his tears away and even his nose with his handkerchief while Flip, who finished wiping his ruined makeup up, all composed, then begins repainting his face again after pulling a hand mirror out, but Sheeta and Camille stopped the two politely)
Camille: (Smiles) No, it's alright actually, you keep them. You need them more than us.
Sheeta: (Smiles while giving a nod in agreement) I have one to keep already.
(Megavolt and Quackerjack smiled softly at the offer)
Megavolt: Okay.
Quackerjack: That's very kind of you.
Megavolt and Quackerjack: Thanks.
(Megavolt and Quackerjack then put their newly-acquired handkerchiefs in Megavolt's jumpsuit pocket and Quackerjack's pants pocket. Even Wes, upon finishing wiping the last of his tears away and then finishing wiping his nose clean with a sniffle, then composed himself calmly and puts his handkerchief away in his business suit pocket while Flip finished repainting his face with his makeup and puts both his hand mirror and handkerchief away, good as new again)
Sheeta and Camille: Feel better?
Wes, Flip, Megavolt, and Quackerjack: (Slowly cheering up) Yeah....
(They get up, feeling better already with Yuffie, who is happily cheered up already as well. Bushroot and Liquidator watched in surprise)
Megavolt: I feel better already.
Quackerjack: Me too.
Flip: Me three.
Wes: Me four.
Yuffie: (Casually happy) And me.
(Then they went back to being happy again, with Yuffie back to being her snarky determined happy self)
Megavolt: Let’s brave that temple...!
Flip: Find mine, Megavolt, Yuffie, and Wes' lucky charms and Quackerjack's Mr. Banana Brain...!
Yuffie: Fight any intervening Bander-Log there...!
Wes: And get to the other side!
Quackerjack: That we guarantee!
(They walk away to the bridge. Bushroot and Liquidator then turned to Sheeta's group in confusion)
Bushroot: Wow, one minute they were depressed, and then Wes, Flip, Megavolt, and Quackerjack cried their eyes out.
Liquidator: And now they’re happy again.
(They turned to Sheeta, Rika, and Camille)
Liquidator: How were you able to do that?
Bushroot: Without upsetting them more?
Camille: I read on how to be a therapist in a book back in the tower, and it taught me how to be like that to people in distress like them.
Mushu: She even practiced her therapizing techniques on me when she was coping on being grounded for trying to leave the tower once.
Camille: Yep.
Sheeta: And I also did it with Rika after her father passed away.
(Sheeta's Oz group looked at Rika in surprise)
Liquidator: Is that true?
Bushroot: Cross your heart?
(Rika nods)
Rika: Yeah, she did. And I'm all better from that loss by going through the Five Stages of Grief with her help because of it.
Liquidator: (To Sheeta, Rika, and Camille, impressed) Wow. You three are like professional psychiatrists, cheering them up. And I happen to agree from your experience, mostly Camille's experience, that 8 out of 10 psychologists say that distressed patients come clean to therapists to heal their psychological pain by definitely having a good cry to get off their chests.
Sheeta, Rika, and Camille: (Happily flattered) Thank you.
Noibat, Renamon, Kiki, Jiji, and Tombo: They know how to cheer people up.
(Suddenly, Yuffie, Wes, Flip, Megavolt, and Quackerjack called out to them)
Yuffie, Wes, Flip, Megavolt, and Quackerjack: Hey, guys! (palsies!)
Wes: You coming or not?
(Realizing, Sheeta's group then arrived at the bridge and after crossing it, they entered at the center island. They looked around, avoiding dangerous obstacles and jumped across streams. Suddenly, they see a fly fly by and suddenly it lands on a nearby Venus flytrap, and the flytrap ate it, much to their discomfort)
Tiger: Um, maybe we should’ve not lost Yuffie, Flip, Wes, and Megavolt’s charms and Quackerjack's doll to the Bander-Log instead.
(He chuckles nervously a bit)
Fievel: Don’t be scared, Tiger. We’ll find them and get out of here.
(Realizing Fievel’s right, Tiger then took a deep breath and Sheeta's group continued on. Then they come upon a quiet, safe-looking glen area in amazement, full of bioluminescent lights)
Sheeta's group: (Calmly amazed) Wow....
Kiki: It's so beautiful....
Nemo: (Nods to Sheeta's group while Icarus nods in agreement) And rest assured, these bioluminescent glen areas down here are the safe zones.
(Sheeta's group, still amazed, got relieved calmly)
Pazu: That's good.
Camille: Who would've guessed that this glen area of this part of the forest is beautiful?
(Suddenly, after Nemo stepped on a nearby bioluminescent vine, it sprung to life and entangled him and even Camille up after he bumped into her while getting sprung up and entangled)
Camille: Okay, this is pretty awkward....
(Then the two tried to free themselves with Sheeta's group's help, especially with magic and even their weapons, but nothing seems to break or rip the bioluminescent vine as Nemo and Camille got entangled even more)
Sheeta's group except Nemo and Camille: (Sheepishly) Sorry.
Nemo: It's like this vine's indestructible.
Camille: I'll say.
Bushroot: Even my plant powers can't make it let you go.
(Suddenly, a male flying bug flew in. He is a very small and slender male Cajun firefly with light olive green skin, an olive green chest, stomach, and toes, holes on his clear olive green dragonfly-like wings, short red string-like hair, very few white teeth, a Cajun accent, and a glowing yellow rear end, which is now off)
Male Cajun firefly: Coo, well, lookee here! Hoo, girl, I guess you and your boyfriend got a little carried away, am I right, am I right?
(Nemo and Camille looked at each other, blushing)
Nemo: Oh! Uh, actually, you're mistaken.
Camille: He's not my boyfriend, we're just friends.
B.E.N.: Who are in a tangled up situation.
Sheeta: And we're trying to free them.
Bushroot: We tried to cut it, rip it, burn it, but nothing works.
Kiki: Maybe you could be of assistance?
Tombo: Please?
(The male Cajun firefly, seeing that they need help upon looking at Nemo and Camille's entangled bodies closely, happily agreed)
Male Cajun firefly: Uh-huh! Let me shine a little light on the situation.
(He tries to light up his body since he is a firefly. He accidentally breaks a little light wind)
Male Cajun firefly: 'Scuse me. One more time now.
(The Male Cajun firefly tries the second time by shaking his bottom, which successfully lights up like a bulb, but turns off, making him frown in chagrin. He tries rubbing it like a bulb to make it work, which it does, much to his happiness)
Male Cajun firefly: (To himself) Oooh, that's more better, yeah! (To Camille, who flinches back a bit as he flew up to her and Nemo) Oh, it's okay, Cher, I don't explode me. I ain’t no firecracker! I just got my big butt glowin'! That's right! Oh, women like a man with a (Proudly pats his butt a bit) big fat porch!
(The male Cajun firefly then examines the bioluminescent vine entangling Nemo and Camille)
Male Cajun firefly: (Tsks a bit) Lord, you done this up real good, for sure. (Observes the bioluminescent vine's loose end he picked up) Now where this go to at? Hang on, Caps and Chers. I'm just going to give a little twist here. We're getting to know each other now!
(He chuckles a bit and goes in the entanglement of the bioluminescent vine to find the solution by following its loose end, before glowing like a disco ball from within as Sheeta's group watched. The male Cajun firefly then sings a bit)
Male Cajun firefly: Won't ya catch a fish?
Catch one, catch two....
(The male Cajun firefly then comes out with the untwisted bioluminescent vine)
Male Cajun firefly: We're back in the bayou
'Round fishin' time
(He pulled the bioluminescent vine really hard and it got untied, freeing Nemo and Camille, much to their and Sheeta's group's amazement)
Male Cajun firefly: 'Bout time I introduce myself.
(The male Cajun firefly then spelled “Raymond” with his lit rear)
Male Cajun firefly: My name Raymond, but everybody call me "Ray."
(He shortens “Raymond” into “Ray,” thus revealing himself to be named Ray, and then disintegrated “Ray”)
Pazu: Say, uh, Ray, your accent sounds kinda....
Jiji: Well, funny.
Ray: (Shrugs happily) Well, I’m a Cajun, brahs. Born and bred in the Bayou of Oz. (Then he looks at Sheeta's Kansas group) Y’all must be new around here, huh?
Rika: Well, yeah.
Sheeta: (Gestures to her Kansas group and herself) Me, Pazu, Rika, Noibat, and Renamon here are from another world.
Ray: Go to bed! Y'all from Quadling Country?
Pazu: Actually, no. We're literally from another world.
Renamon: From a place called Topeka, Kansas.
Noibat: Which is the real world.
Rika: Very different from Oz here.
Ray: (Interested) Really? And why y'all here anywho?
Sheeta: We're on our way to Emerald City to ask the Wizard of Oz to help....
Ray: Whoa, whoa, whoa. Y'all goin' to Emerald City to see the Wizard of Oz?
Sheeta: Yeah.
Ray: (Guessing) And I'm guessin' that y'all have dreams, right?
Sheeta's group: (Nods happily) Yes!
Jiminy: Good guess.
Ray: Well, y'all ain't the only ones who have dreams. I have a dream myself. And that is to be with my gal named Evangeline again.
(Sheeta's group got confused, yet interested)
Sheeta's group: (Interested) Really?
Pinocchio: Who's Evangeline?
Ray: My lover, the most beautiful firefly that I meet up with at night. (Squeals happily a bit) And I know deep within my heart, (He illuminates a nearby heart-shaped leaf from behind it after calmly flying behind it) We gonna be together forever.
(Sheeta's group smiled softly, liking Ray's dream)
Yuffie: (Smiling softly, feeling calmly touched) Aw, how romantic.
(Even Cri-Kee and Icarus are smiling softly, calmly touched by Ray's dream. Then they changed the subject as Ray flew out from behind the leaf)
Ray: Anywho, onto business.
Sheeta's group: Yeah.
Mushu: First, what we're doing here trying to get to King Louie and the Bander-Log's lair to find (Gestures to Yuffie, Wes, Flip, Megavolt, and Quackerjack) our five friends' stolen items here.
(Realizing what he means, Ray understood)
Ray: (To Mushu) Ah, a little detour to King Louie and the Bander-Log's temple lair. (To Yuffie, Wes, Flip, Megavolt, and Quackerjack) What items did they steal from y'all?
Yuffie, Wes, Flip, and Megavolt: My charms.
Quackerjack: And my Mr. Banana Brain doll.
Ray: Four charms and a Mr. Banana Brain doll?
(The five nods. Then Ray, after he pondered, realized what they mean and explained away)
Ray: You know, come to think of it, I did see some of the Bander-Log monkeys headin' off to their and King Louie's temple lair with five small items that y'all describin' and just when I was gonna go up to them to ask, they vanished and I lost 'em.
Yuffie, Wes, Flip, Megavolt, and Quackerjack: (In annoyance) Oh, great!
Wes: Then we definitely have to go there and get them back from them.
Flip: (To Wes) Exactly.
Sheeta: (To Ray) Could you guide us to this King Louie and his Bander-Log's temple lair?
Ray: (Nods) Oh, yeah. My kin and I can help. Anything to help y'all with your five friends' stolen items predicament.
(Then he whistles to his Cajun firefly brethren and the nearby bioluminescent trees glowed by the Cajun fireflies’ rears, much to Sheeta's group’s amazement)
Ray: Me and my relationals will help show y'all the way.
(Then Ray gathered up to his brethren)
Ray: Hey, Cousin Randy! You ready for a little forested trench Zydeco?
Randy: Ready when you are, Cousin Ray!
(Then Ray ushered the others as the Cajun fireflies started playing music)
Ray: All right, Lulu. Let’s get to it, darlin’.
(He goes up to Sheeta's group, who slowly started to follow)
Ray: Come on, y’all! Just follow the bouncin’ butt!
(Then he starts singing as Sheeta's group followed)
Ray: We gonna take you there
We gonna take you there
We gonna take you all the way there
We gonna take you there
We gonna take you there
We gonna take you all the way
Goin’ down the forest
Goin’ down the forest
Goin’ down the forest
Takin’ you all the way
(Then he introduced some of his family members)
Ray: We got the whole family! There goes Mimi, Cousin Boudreau!
(He noticed an old female Cajun firefly without her light on)
Ray: Oh, Grandmama! Your light off!
(Hearing him in realization, she claps twice and her light came on and then Ray resumed singing)
Ray: We all gonna pull together
Down here, that’s how we do it
Me for them, and them for me
We all be there for you
We gonna take ya
We gonna take ya
We gonna take ya all the way there
We know where you goin’
And we goin’ with you
Takin’ you all the way
Goin’ down the forest
Goin’ down the forest
Goin’ down the forest
Takin’ you allllll….
(Then he exclaimed happily as the song slowly ended)
Ray: Yeah, you know! Come on, y’all! Keep that life flowin’, and the lights a-glowin’!
(Then with that, they continued their way. Then they later arrived at the glen area's exit and Ray flew up to Sheeta's group)
Ray: If it be okay with y'all, may I be assistin' y'all to Emerald City, for my dream?
(Even Ray's family and friends happily clamored in agreement. Sheeta's group thought it over and after giving a happy shrug at each other, they agreed)
Sheeta's group: Sure.
Ray: (Happily) Ooh-whee! I'm goin' to Emerald City for Evangeline!
(Then Sheeta's group, including the newly-recruited Ray, bidded the Cajun fireflies goodbye as the Cajun fireflies left to the forest on the other side of the center island. Then with that, Sheeta's group and Ray got determined happily)
Sheeta: Well, to Oz?
Sheeta's group and Ray: To Oz!
(Then they sang away as they trekked through the path)
Sheeta's group: We’re off to see the Wizard
The Wonderful Wizard of Oz
We’ll find he is a whiz of a wiz
If ever a wiz there was
If ever, oh ever, a wiz there was
The Wizard of Oz is one
Because, because, because, because
Because, because
Because of the wonderful things
He does
We’re off to see the Wizard
The Wonderful Wizard of Oz
(And with that, they continued their way, with Ray leading Sheeta's group to the direction of this Louie's lair)
Coming up: Sheeta’s group, after successfully getting Yuffie, Flip, Wes, and Megavolt's lucky charms and Quackerjack's Mr. Banana Brain doll back by distracting the Bander-Log monkeys, the Bander-Log monkeys after then ordered by this Louie in the shadows of their monkey temple lair to go get Sheeta, Pazu, and Rika, due to being impressed by their clever skills. Then sure enough, while Sheeta's group and Ray were on their way to the other side of the trench on the center island, the Bander-Log monkeys lure the unsuspecting Sheeta, Pazu, Rika, Noibat, Renamon, Tiger, Flip, Megavolt, and Quackerjack with some food and then successfully capture Sheeta, Pazu, and Rika and outwit Noibat, Renamon, Tiger, Flip, Megavolt, and Quackerjack, who tried to rescue the three.
