Darkrai and the Midnight Patrol: The Nightmare Wars

Darkrai and the Midnight Patrol: The Nightmare Wars is a fanmade crossover that features the Midnight Patrol from Midnight Patrol: Adventures in the Dream Zone (known as Potsworth and Co. in the UK) as the main protagonists, Darkrai from the Pokémon franchise as the main antagonist, the Nightmare Prince as a secondary antagonist, and four Mavericks from the Mega Man X franchise: Commander Yammark, Rainy Turtloid, Blaze Heatnix, and Blizzard Wolfang from Mega Man X6 as Darkrai's henchmen. It is a sequel to Darkrai and the Midnight Patrol.
== Plot ==
(The story starts in the Nightmare Prince's castle. He's currently on the phone with his mother)
Nightmare Prince: Yes, mom, I'm trying to think of a way to ruin people's dreams. I know I'll think of something.
(The Nightmare Prince's mom speaks gibberish to him on the phone)
Nightmare Prince: Yes, mom! I'll be quick about it! I promise!
(The Nightmare Prince notices a big hole opening in the floor of his castle. Numerous objects fall in and burn in a pit of fire below)
Nightmare Prince: I'll have to call you back, mom.
(The prince walks forward to see what's going on. He is shocked as he gazes into the fiery pit. Nightmarish creatures fly out. Darkrai appears)
Nightmare Prince: I have no idea what you're trying to do, but this my castle and no one tampers with it!
Darkrai: Say what you will. You'll be terrified when I spread my nightmares toward the Dream Zone.
Nightmare Prince: You're not supposed to be destroying MY things! IGOR... IRVING... SHORTY... help me out!
(The Nightmare Prince's henchmen arrive)
Shorty: What is it, Your Nastiness?
Nightmare Prince: This guy's ruining my castle. DO SOMETHING!!!!
(As Igor, Irving and Shorty face Darkrai, they immediately become scared of him)
Irving: Th... th... that's Darkrai, isn't it?
Igor: I heard he makes nightmares that are even worse than the ones the boss cooks up.
Nightmare Prince: That's ridiculous! Everyone knows I'm the baddest villain in the Dream Zone!
(Darkrai transforms into a giant translucent version of himself, with his face up close to the Nightmare Prince and his minions. Terrified, the Nightmare Prince runs away screaming)
Shorty: Wait for us, Your Evilness!
(Igor, Irving and Shorty follow the Nightmare Prince. Darkrai reverts back to his original form. He then forms a swirling ball of darkness in his hands. As he moves his hands apart, the ball of darkness floats away from him a little and separates into four balls of darkness. They then grow and transform into Commander Yammark, Rainy Turtloid, Blaze Heatnix, and Blizzard Wolfang. They all face Darkrai)
Darkrai: I am Darkrai, your creator and master. I created you to help me spread my nightmares throughout the Dream Zone.
(In the Midnight Patrol's home, the team is in the bedroom and making wishes. Suddenly, the alarm goes off)
Nick: Aww...
Rosie: I hate getting interrupted by one of Darkrai's nightmares when we're in the middle of something.
Keiko: I'm sure we'll have time to try again sometime. Come on, gang.
(The Midnight Patrol rushes to the mission room. The computer shows Darkrai's nightmares spreading from the Nightmare Prince's castle, slowly making their way to the Dream Zone)
Keiko: Let's roll, Midnight Patrol!
(The doors open, and the team heads down a road of silver sparkles. They come up to a dream which is bigger than all the others in the Dream World combined. As they go through, they enter the Dream Zone)
Carter: Wow! I've never seen a dream like this before.
Potsworth: You're certainly not the only one, Carter.
Nick: Let's go see who's in charge here. Maybe they'll know what we have to do.
Keiko: Good idea, Nick! Alright, gang, follow me!
(The team heads off, but Potsworth stays behind for just a moment)
Potsworth: I have a feeling we'll be dealing with a lot of problems later.
(Potsworth catches up with his friends. The team arrives at Dream Central)
Potsworth: Any suggestions on where we should go to find whoever is in charge?
Keiko: That castle looks like a good place to start.
(The Midnight Patrol heads inside the castle. They spot the Grand Dozer sleeping on a hundred mattresses)
Rosie: Him? He's the king of this castle?
Keiko: He's just sleeping, Rosie.
(Sebastian walks in)
Sebastian: Well, hello! Welcome to the Dream Zone.
Carter: Who are you?
Sebastian: I'm Sebastian, and this is His Drowsiness the Grand Dozer, king of the Dream Zone.
Keiko: Nice to meet you, Sebastian. We're the Midnight Patrol. I'm Keiko, and this is Rosie, Nick, Murphy, Potsworth and Carter.
Sebastian: It's nice to meet you, too. And the Dozer is pleased, too.
(The Grand Dozer snores as he sleeps)
Sebastian: That is, he would be if he were awake.
Rosie: Well, what are you waiting for? Wake him up!
Sebastian: Oh, I'm afraid that's completely out of the question. His Sleepiness needs to stay sleeping, otherwise, the Dream Zone would cease to exist! That's why he's so important and why he's king around here.
Carter: Woah. That's not good.
Sebastian: I know. Anyway, allow me to give you a tour of Dream Central.
(The Midnight Patrol follows Sebastian around Dream Central)
Sebastian: The Snooze Patrol's job is to make sure everyone in the Dream Zone has happy dreams and to help them out in any way.
(The Chief of the Snooze Patrol is seen handing out a stack of papers to a Snooze Patrol officer)
Chief: Get these orders to the Giant's cave.
Officer: Got it, chief!
(The officer leaves. The Chief turns to see Sebastian and the Midnight Patrol)
Chief: Hello, Sebastian.
Sebastian: Hello, chief. Kids, this is the Chief of the Snooze Patrol. Chief, this is the Midnight Patrol.
Chief: The Midnight Patrol? I've heard of those kids! They're always protecting everyone's dreams!
Sebastian: Really? I had no idea.
Chief: I'm appointing you kids as the official defenders of the Dream Zone. And I have an important assignment for you.
Nick: What is it?
Chief: I need you to go over to the Greystone Giant's cave and see if you can help him with his orders.
Rosie: Who's the Greystone Giant, anyway?
Chief: He makes sure everyone has everything they need for their dreams. (To a Snooze Patrol officer) You there.
Officer: Yes, Chief?
Chief: We need to take these kids to the Giant's cave.
Officer: Sure thing, Chief.
Sebastian: Good luck, Midnight Patrol.
Keiko: Thanks, Sebastian.
(The gang follows the officer and the Chief to the cave of the Greystone Giant)
Rosie: This is it?
(Keiko knocks on the door. The Greystone Giant opens it and looks down at the team)
Greystone Giant: What do you want?
Keiko: Uh... are you the Greystone Giant?
Greystone Giant: Who wants to know?
Carter: We do.
Greystone Giant: Oh. What do you want?
Rosie: What a grouch.
Chief: You'll have to excuse the Giant. He is good-natured but tends to be a bit grouchy in his job from time to time. (To the Giant) This is the Midnight Patrol. They're here to help you with your orders.
Greystone Giant: Ah, fine, whatever. Come on in.
(The Midnight Patrol follows the Giant inside. The Chief and the officer leave. The Midnight Patrol helps the Giant with his orders. In no time, he gets all caught up)
Greystone Giant: Thanks for your help. Now I can keep up with the rest of my orders.
Carter: No problem.
(The team leaves and goes to explore the rest of the Dream Zone. Along the way, the Nosey Bird arrives and meets them)
Nosey Bird: Hi, kids!
Rosie: Who are you?
Nosey Bird: Oh, me? Everyone calls me the Nosey Bird. I just saw some robot animals in the Dream Zone. Isn't that amazing?
Nick: Wow! Robot animals? That is cool!
Rosie: Oh, brother. Why don't you go annoy someone else with your gossip?
(The Nosey Bird flies away. After they're finished exploring the Dream Zone, the Midnight Patrol returns to Dream Central)
Sebastian: You kids did a wonderful job in helping the Greystone Giant.
Keiko: It was nothing, Sebastian.
(The Grand Dozer yawns and sits up)
Grand Dozer: Ah, yes. You've all done wonderfully. I hereby declare you the official protectors of the (yawns) Dream Zone.
Carter: Thank, Your Sleepiness.
Nick: Yeah, thanks.
Potsworth: We're deeply honored.
Grand Dozer: And it will be your sworn duty to protect the Dream Zone from any nightmares.
Keiko: That's what we do best.
(Suddenly, the sky begins to thunder. Darkrai emerges from the shadows)
Rosie: Darkrai!
(Sebastian and the Chief cower in fear upon seeing Darkrai)
Keiko: I don't know what kind of nightmares you brought here, but you'll never get away with it!
Carter: When are you going to lean that you can never beat us?
Darkrai: You will not defeat me so easily this time, Midnight Patrol. Soon, the Dream Zone will perish, my nightmares will spread, and the shadows will devour all.
Nick: Oh, yeah!?
(Nick flies at Darkrai. But before he can punch him, Darkrai disappears into the shadows and reappears by the Grand Dozer)
Sebastian: Oh, no!
Darkrai: Dark Void!
(Using Dark Void, Darkrai sends the Dozer into a deep slumber. And in no time, he starts having terrible dreams)
Chief: SNOOZE PATROL!!!!!
(Every member of the Snooze Patrol arrives and confronts Darkrai. Darkrai blows them away with his Dark Pulse attack)
Chief: (speaking through a megaphone) Everyone, evacuate Dream Central immediately! This is not a drill!
(The Chief, the Snooze Patrol and Sebastian leave Dream Central as quickly as possible. Other people in Dream Central who happen to be dreamers from Earth run away as well. But the Midnight Patrol stays behind to battle with Darkrai. Nick flies at Darkrai and delivers another punch. Darkrai recovers before hitting the ground. Carter draws a sword and swings it at Darkrai. Darkrai disappears into the shadows)
Rosie: I hate it when he does that!
(Darkrai reappears out of the darkness)
Darkrai: You cannot win, Midnight Patrol. You may have thwarted me in the past, but the nightmares I have unleashed in this dream world are beyond even that which you could stop before. They are also beyond even that which the Nightmare Prince could create.
Carter: The Nightmare Prince?
Nick: Who's that?
Darkrai: He is the bringer of nightmares who lives here in the Dream Zone. He is now trapped in a never-ending nightmare. And as we speak, my four newly-created henchmen are in four separate places in the Dream Zone, spreading my nightmares and aiding me in its destruction. As long as they exist, my powers will continue to grow.
Rosie: You're just trying to scare us into giving up, Darkrai! But it's not going to work! In fact, that nightmare you gave us when you kidnapped our parents didn't scare us into giving up either!
Potsworth: She's right, you know.
(Darkrai once again vanishes into the shadows. He then remerges as a giant, with numerous horrific nightmare creatures emerging from the shadows with him. The Midnight Patrol becomes terrified as there are too many to battle)
Rosie: (gulps) Maybe we should go find Darkrai's henchmen.
Potsworth: That sounds like a very good idea.
(The Midnight Patrol retreats and meets Sebastian and the Chief on the outskirts of Dream Central. The skies over Dream Central are now completely black and it's spreading to the rest of the Dream Zone. The Grand Dozer is still asleep and suffering from Darkrai's nightmares, adding fuel to the spreading darkness)
Carter: So... where are we supposed to find Darkrai's henchmen?
Keiko: I don't know. They could be anywhere!
(A Snooze Patrol officer arrives)
Officer: Chief! There's a strange robot that looks kind of like a dragonfly in the jungle! He's leading an army of monsters, and the jungle is turning dark!
Nick: Hey, didn't the Nosey Bird say there were robots in the Dream Zone?
Potsworth: That boy certainly has a good head on his shoulders.
(Three more officers arrive)
Officer #1: Chief! There's a big mean-looking robot who looks like a turtle on a mountain, and there are lots of thunderstorms going on there!
Officer #2: I saw a flaming bird-looking robot at a pizzeria in Superland!
Officer #3: I was patrolling the ice caves and saw a robot wolf!
Keiko: We've gotta find those robots and take them down, or the whole Dream Zone will be ruined! Follow me, gang!
Sebastian: Good luck, Midnight Patrol!
Chief: We're counting on you!
(The Midnight Patrol heads to the jungle first. Once they arrive, they look around)
Nick: Hello? Anybody here?
Carter: Wow, I guess finding those robots is going to be harder than we thought.
Rosie: How are we ever going to find a robot in the jungle?
Potsworth: I don't think we need to look any further.
Keiko: Why's that, Potsworth?
Potsworth: (points up) Because the robot appears to have found us.
(Commander Yammark descends down from the air, accompanied by three smaller flying robots)
Rosie: You're one of those robots that Darkrai created to help him destroy the Dream Zone, aren't you?
Commander Yammark: Yes! I'm Commander Yammark. And you must be the Midnight Patrol. My master warned us about you. I won't let you erase me before Darkrai can spread his nightmares throughout the Dream Zone! I'll erase you first!
(The fight begins with Commander Yammark's robots flying up and down, firing green lasers at the Midnight Patrol. The heroes dodge them)
Carter: Woah! Look out!
(Commander Yammark flies at the Midnight Patrol, with the smaller robots still firing their lasers. He flies at Carter who jumps out of the way)
Carter: I've got an idea!
(Carter draws five hand mirrors for himself and his friends)
Carter: Here, use these!
(Carter tosses a hand mirror to each of his friends. Commander Yammark hovers in the air, and his robots take aim. Then, they fire)
Carter: Now!
(Each of the Midnight Patrol members hold up their hand mirrors, reflecting the laser blasts back at Commander Yammark. He then screams and explodes. The darkness in the jungle vanishes)
Carter: Alright! We did it!
Keiko: Way to go, gang!
Rosie: That Commander Yammark was one bad bug bot.
(Keiko inspects the remaining pieces of the now-destroyed Commander Yammark)
Keiko: Hey, maybe we can use these parts to make a machine that will stop Darkrai's nightmares from destroying the Dream Zone!
Carter: Are you sure, Keiko?
Keiko: I'm positive. We just need to take care of the other robots first. Then, we can build the machine.
(Carter draws a bag, and the heroes collect the pieces they need before leaving the jungle. They head to the mountain next. Violent thunderstorms fill the skies)
Carter: I hope we find that turtle robot soon!
(Murphy gets blown off Nick's head and clings onto his cape)
Rosie: The sooner we find him, the better. This wind's messing up my hair!
Keiko: Don't worry! He can't be too far!
(Nick struggles against the wind)
Nick: This is pretty bad weather for flying!
Keiko: (points at the sky) Look!
(The Midnight Patrol sees Rainy Turtloid's shell spinning as it slowly comes down. It stops, and Rainy Turtloid reveals himself)
Rainy Turtloid: I'm Rainy Turtloid. I've heard a lot about you, Midnight Patrol. You have my respect.
Carter: Respect?
Potsworth: Does this mean you'll stop aiding Darkrai in his plot?
Rainy Turtloid: It is my duty to aid my master. It's also my duty to eliminate anyone and anything that stands in my master's way.
(Rainy Turtloid launches missiles from his shell at the Midnight Patrol)
Keiko: Look out!
(The team quickly moves out of the way. Rainy Turtloid retracts into his shell, which then grows spikes and starts spinning at his foes. The Midnight Patrol narrowly evades his attack. Rainy Turtloid stops spinning, the spikes retract, and he comes back out of his shell. He fires more missiles. They miss and end up hitting a mountainside, causing a rockslide. Rosie screams as she gets buried under the falling rocks)
Keiko: Rosie!
Nick: Nobody does that to my sister and gets away with it!
(Rainy Turtloid uses his spin attack against Nick who flies right at him. Nick dodges him. Rainy Turtloid stops spinning and shoots more missiles. Nick evades most of them and grabs two. He tosses them back at Rainy Turtloid, dealing damage to the big robot. He then picks up a big rock and tosses it at Rainy Turtloid, crushing him and destroying him for good. The thunderstorms die down)
Carter: Gret job, Super Nick!
Keiko: You were great!
Potsworth: Very impressive for a human.
Murphy: Uh-huh!
Rosie: (muffled) Nicholas, get me out of these boulders, NOW!
(The others see Rosie struggling to get out from under the boulders. Nick heads over and moves them away. When enough are moved he helps Rosie out. Her ponytail is messed up. She looks at herself in a hand mirror)
Rosie: Oh, great. Thanks to that towering turtle, my ponytail's a mess!
Keiko: At least he's gone now. But before we go, we still have to get some of Rainy Turtloid's parts for the machine.
(The gang collects the parts they need from Rainy Turtloid's remains and put them in the bag. They head back down the mountain and head for Superland. When they get there, they see the superhero denizens are in a panic)
Keiko: Gee, these superheroes look like they could use some help.
(The Midnight Patrol makes their way through the city and finds the pizzeria, which is in a blazing fire. The fire is also starting to engulf two other buildings next to it)
Nick: This must be the pizzeria! Come on, gang!
(Nick flies into the burning building)
Rosie: Nicholas, wait!
(Nick's friends all follow him inside)
Carter: If we don't find that robot, this whole place will be burned down!
(Blaze Heatnix flies down to face the Midnight Patrol)
Blaze Heatnix: Welcome! I've been waiting for you! My name is Blaze Heatnix. I heard you are very brave and strong. Let's fight to see who's the strongest!
(Blaze Heatnix starts flying, and the pizzeria starts filling with purple lava. Carter, Potsworth, and Rosie quickly get on Keiko's skateboard, and she takes them up with her to safety. Nick flies up too and joins them)
Rosie: Where did all this purple lava come from!?
Potsworth: Good question.
(Blaze Heatnix dives into the lava, disappearing from sight. The Midnight Patrol cautiously looks around for him)
Carter: Careful. He might come out at any time.
(Blaze Heatnix suddenly emerges from below them, surprising them. Rosie falls off, but Carter grabs her hand before she falls into the lava. He gets her back on Keiko's skateboard. Blaze Heatnix dives back in the lava)
Rose: Thanks, Carter.
Carter: No problem, Rosie.
(Nick flies a short distance away from his friends, figuring they'll be safer that way, so Blaze Heatnix won't surprise them all at once. Carter draws a mace. Blaze Heatnix bursts out of the lava again, missing Nick. Keiko flies over so Carter can hit him. Blaze Heatnix shoots a ball of yellow fireball at the team, but they evade it. The fireball splits into three smaller fireballs upon coming into contact with the lava. The Midnight Patrol evades them as well. The purple lava vanishes, and Blaze Heatnix flies down. Suddenly, the lava covers the ceiling. The Midnight Patrol flies down before the lava can touch them. Their foe then launches fire crescents at them. The team narrowly dodges his attacks)
Nick: Carter, I've got an idea!
(Nick takes his friend's hand, and, using his superhero strength, swings him around and tosses him right at Blaze Heatnix. Using his mace, Carter breaks the robot's head right off his body. Blaze Heatnix explodes, the purple lava disappears from the ceiling, and the fire that engulfed the pizzeria goes out)
Carter: Great teamwork, Super Nick.
Nick: You were great too, Carter.
(The Midnight Patrol collects the pieces of Blaze Heatnix's body and leaves the pizzeria. The citizens of Superland cheer for them for saving their city)
Rosie: Now, we just have to beat one more robot, and the Dream Zone will be saved.
(The team makes their way to the ice caves. There's a cold wind blowing out of the entrance)
Nick: Brr... It must be really cold in there.
Carter: Are you sure we should go in there, Keiko?
Keiko: We have to if we want to save the Dream Zone. Come on, Midnight Patrol.
(The Midnight Patrol members gather their courage and enter the cave. They shiver a little upon entering)
Rosie: You were right, Nicholas. It really is cold in here.
Potsworth: The sooner we defeat the robot hiding in this cave, the sooner we can leave.
(The team travels through the cave, doing their very best to brave the cold. Suddenly, the ground begins to rumble. They see an avalanche coming their way)
Keiko: Look out, gang!
(The Midnight Patrol hides in a nearby tunnel. After the avalanche stops, they come out and continue on. As they go into another part of the cave, the ground rumbles again. This time, big sharp icicles come falling down. The team scatters, narrowly avoiding the icicles. They make it to another area inside the cave)
Carter: That was close.
Potsworth: Perhaps a little too close.
Rosie: I think I preferred fighting with Blaze Heatnix.
(Suddenly, the cave becomes completely dark. The Midnight Patrol members see a faint blinking light not too far away from where they are standing)
Blizzard Wolfang: Are you the Midnight Patrol?
Keiko: Uh... yeah.
Blizzard Wolfang: I'm Blizzard Wolfang. Darkrai gave me my mission to spread cold from the caves so the Dream Zone would be destroyed. This is my mission, and I will destroy you, Midnight Patrol!
(The darkness clears away to reveal Blizzard Wolfang. He howls and charges at the team. They move and evade him. He then leaps from wall to wall, lunging at the Midnight Patrol, but he still misses them. Blizzard Wolfang then shoots snowballs from his mouth that go up in an arc. The Midnight Patrol members dodge them with ease)
Rosie: Is that it? You're making this look too easy.
(Blizzard Wolfang stops firing snowballs and tries to pounce on Rosie, but Nick grabs her and moves her out of the way just in time. Rosie notices a part of the cave where the ceiling has deadly sharp icicles dangling down and gets an idea. Blizzard Wolfang shoots more snowballs at the Midnight Patrol. As he does, Rosie makes her own snowball)
Rosie: Hey! Blizzard Wolfang!
(Blizzard Wolfang turns around as Rosie has gotten his attention. Rosie throws the snowball in his face, blinding him)
Rosie: Come and get me!
(Blizzard Wolfang charges at Rosie, but she dodges him, and he hits the wall. The icicles break free from the ceiling and fall down, impaling Blizzard Wolfang and destroying him)
Nick: Way to go, Rosie!
Rosie: That Blizzard Wolfang wasn't so tough.
Potsworth: Well, now that we've taken care of all the robots, I do believe we now have a way of defeating Darkrai.
Carter: That's right, Potsworth.
(The five friends collect all the pieces they need)
Keiko: Come on, gang! Back to Dream Central!
(The Midnight Patrol leaves the ice cave and reunites with Sebastian at the outskirts of Dream Central)
Sebastian: Oh, thank goodness you're back, Midnight Patrol!
Carter: You don't have to worry about those robots anymore, Sebastian. We got 'em.
Sebastian: Splendid! So, what's your plan to defeat Darkrai?
Nick: Oh, that's easy. We're going to make a machine from the parts of the robots we destroyed.
Sebastian: Oh, good. I really hope your plan works.
(Elsewhere, the Nightmare Prince is trapped in a Dark Void, just like the Grand Dozer. His minions share the same fate and are right by his side. He is confronted by Darkrai)
Nightmare Prince: (trembling) N-now... you listen to me, Darkrai... I'm just about as frightening as you, so I should own at least part of the Dream Zone! You can't have it all to yourself!
(Darkrai grows to massive size, with his face directly in front of the Nightmare Prince)
Darkrai: The Dream Zone is not yours to rule! I am the only truly nightmarish one! You are nothing but a fool!
(The Nightmare Prince is intimidated)
Nightmare Prince: (terrified) Igor, Irving, Shorty... any suggestions?
Irving: (scared) S-s-sorry, boss... I'm too scared to think.
Shorty: (also scared) M-m-me, too...
Igor: (frightened as well) And m-me...
(The Midnight Patrol arrives back at the outskirts of Dream Central)
Sebastian: Midnight Patrol! You're back! Did you destroy those terrible robots?
Keiko: Sure, Sebastian.
Sebastian: Oh, splendid!
Nick: We even saved some of the robot parts. Keiko says we can use them to make a machine that will beat Darkrai.
Sebastian: Wonderful idea! You can convert them into a machine that utilizes their powers.
(Later, the Midnight Patrol has built a big ray gun out of all the parts)
Carter: This new machine sure is a work of art.
Rosie: I hope it'll be enough to save the Dream Zone and get rid of Darkrai.
Keiko: I'm sure it will.
Sebastian: Oh, yes. I'm positive that it will, too.
(Murphy climbs onto the ray gun's control panel, fascinated by all the buttons and lights. He accidentally presses a purple-gray button which turns on the machine. The ray gun lights up and fires a purple-gray beam at Rosie. It hits her torso, causing her clothes to become purple-gray)
Rosie: Nicholas! Look what your nosey reptile did to my dress!
Nick: (takes Murphy off the control panel) Sorry, Rosie.
Rosie: (embarrassed) This is not my color...
(Potsworth approaches her)
Rosie: Don't say...
Potsworth: I know, I know, (mimics Rosie) "Don't say anything, Potsworth." How did I know the young lady was going to say that?
Keiko: This ray gun shoots colors? Cool! We'd be honored to color Darkrai's nightmare world! Right, gang?
Carter: Sure, Keiko!
Murphy: Uh-huh!
Nick: We have to go find Darkrai and save the Dream Zone!
Potsworth: Quite right.
(a Snooze Patrol officer comes running up quick)
Officer: Darkrai's not in Dream Central anymore!
Midnight Patrol: What!?
Officer: He's gone to an open wasteland!
Keiko: Then that's where we'll find him. Let's roll, Midnight Patrol.
(The gang heads out to the wasteland with their ray gun. Upon getting there, they see how bleak it looks. There are dead trees in certain areas, and the ground is dry and black)
Rosie: Wow... Darkrai's definitely been here.
Potsworth: The young lady seems rather observant.
Carter: I hope Darkrai jump out on us.
Keiko: Don't worry, gang, we'll be ready for him.
(Before they can go any further, Darkrai emerges from the darkness)
Rosie: It's all over, Darkrai! Your robots are gone, and now we're going to get rid of you next!
Keiko: That's right! And after we beat you, you'll never ruin the Dream Zone again!
Darkrai: You have interfered for the last time, Midnight Patrol. You may have destroyed my henchmen, but you will not defeat me so easily this time.
Carter: That's what you think! We made a machine from the parts of those robots you made. And we're gonna use it to save the Dream Zone!
(Rosie prepares to fire the ray gun, but the control panel says it needs time to charge up)
Rosie: Oh, great. It doesn't have enough power yet.
Nick: What are you saying Rosie?
Rosie: It needs time to charge.
Potsworth: Oh, dear...
Darkrai: You will never defeat me with your pitiful weapon.
Keiko: We're not giving up, Darkrai! We never give up! Because we're the Midnight Patrol! No matter what kinds of nightmares you throw at us, we always overcome our fears when we work together as a team!
(The Midnight Patrol and Darkrai engage each other in battle. Carter draws a club, rushes at Darkrai and swings at him. But Darkrai disappears into the shadows. Five of him appear out of the darkness, surrounding the Midnight Patrol. They all use Shock Wave on them. They all stop and fuse back into one. Darkrai prepares to use Dark Pulse, but Nick flies at him and punches him hard, knocking him back. Darkrai uses Double Team, confusing his foes)
Rosie: Not this again!
Nick: I'll get him!
(Without thinking or guessing, Nick flies at one of the illusions of Darkrai but goes right through it)
Potsworth: Why am I not surprised that something like that would happen?
(Darkrai stops using Double Team and blasts the Midnight Patrol with Dark Pulse. The team gets back up and is ready to keep on fighting. Darkrai vanishes into the darkness once again, then the ground starts shaking)
Carter: Whoa! What's happening now?
(Giant Darkrai claws burst out of the ground and grab at the Midnight Patrol. The team members scramble to get out of the way. Carter, Keiko and Nick evade the claws, but Rosie and Potsworth get captured. All the other claws vanish, while the ones holding Potsworth and Rosie remain visible as a giant Darkrai emerges from the ground, still holding Rosie and Potsworth)
Rosie: (struggling) Let me go, Darkrai!
Potsworth: Trust me, you'd better do what she says before her complaining drives you mad.
Nick: You heard them, Darkrai! LET MY SISTER GO!!!!
Carter: And you let my dog go, too!
(Carter, Nick and Keiko rush at Darkrai. Keiko flies at his face, striking him with her skateboard. This causes Darkrai to drop Potsworth. Carter quickly draws a trampoline to save him from hitting the ground. Nick punches Darkrai's face, making him drop Rosie. Nick catches her)
Darkrai: Enough!
(Darkrai quickly spreads his arms out, causing the ground to crumble away, giving way to a bottomless pit. Carter, Potsworth and Rosie get on Keiko's skateboard, and she carries them to safety, with Nick flying right behind them. They all fly at Darkrai again. Darkrai uses Dark Pulse, but they evade it. Nick delivers another punch to Darkrai's face. Darkrai grabs at him but misses. As Keiko flies close to Darkrai, Carter hits him with his club. Darkrai tries to hit them with Shock Wave, only to miss again. Keiko flies close again, and Potsworth jumps off and bites Darkrai's left claw. Darkrai screams in pain, shaking him off. Nick catches Potsworth and sets him on the ground. Keiko flies at Darkrai once again, slamming into his face with her skateboard again. Enraged, Darkrai uses Dark Pulse, but misses yet again. Keiko flies towards Darkrai one last time. This time Rosie jumps off and kicks Darkrai in the face using both feet. Keiko catches Rosie, and the team heads back to the ray gun)
Keiko: Alright! The ray gun's all charged up!
Potsworth: Good. Now perhaps we can finally end this nightmare.
(Darkrai approaches)
Darkrai: This ends now!
(As Darkrai comes closer, the Midnight Patrol prepares to fire the ray gun. Rosie presses the fire button, and the parts from the defeated Mavericks shine four lasers of different colors: Green for Yammark, violet for Turtloid, orange for Heatnix, and cyan for Wolfang. The ray gun fires all four colored beams. The cyan beam hits Darkrai's face, the green beam hits his right arm, the violet beam hits his left arm, and the orange beam hits his belly. Darkrai groans in pain. The ray gun stops, and Darkrai covers his eyes)
Darkrai: My eyes!
(The Midnight Patrol sees a red spot on Darkrai's belly)
Carter: Go for it, Super Nick!
Nick: You got it!
(Nick flies at Darkrai one last time and hits the red spot with his superhuman punch. The red spot breaks, and Darkrai screams as he loses his powers. He disintegrates into a black cloud of dust. The Grand Dozer awakens from his nightmare, and so does the Nightmare Prince)
Carter: Congratulations, Super Nick! You did it!
Nick: I didn't do it. We did it.
Keiko: You're right Nick. We saved the Dream Zone!
Nightmare Prince: Oh, really? Don't be too proud of yourselves, because now you have to deal with me!
Carter: Are you the Nightmare Prince?
Nightmare Prince: Of course, I am. And I'd like to thank you for getting rid of Darkrai. Now that he's out of the way, I'm now the baddest villain in the Dream Zone again. But before I take over the Dream Zone and start ruining everyone's dreams, I'm going to get rid of you first!
(The Nightmare Prince charges at the Midnight Patrol. Carter paints a seesaw on the ground. As the Nightmare Prince gets closer, Keiko drops a 1-ton weight on the other side, which catapults the Nightmare Prince out of sight... and back into his own castle where he was sucked out of by Darkrai in the first place. His phone rings)
Nightmare Prince: (answering his phone) Hello?
(The Nightmare Prince's mom speaks gibberish to him on the other end)
Nightmare Prince: No, mom. I didn't fail to destroy the Dream Zone. That wasn't even me who did it. It was Darkrai. (puts his phone away) Igor! Irving! Shorty!
(The Nightmare Prince's henchmen arrive)
Irving: Yeah, boss?
Nightmare Prince: Take me to bed. I don't feel so well... (groans)
Igor: Right away, boss!
(Igor, Irving and Shorty carry their master to his bedroom. Back in Dream Central, the Grand Dozer is back on top of the 100 mattresses where he should be. The Midnight Patrol stand before Sebastian and the Chief. Rosie, Nick, Murphy, Carter and Keiko are given various prizes, while Potsworth is given a giant dog bone)
Sebastian: You did it, Midnight Patrol! You saved the Dream Zone from Darkrai!
Keiko: No problem, Sebastian. We were just doing our job.
Murphy: Uh-huh.
Sebastian: From now on, you'll be protecting everyone's dreams in the Dream Zone from the Nightmare Prince.
Chief: Thanks again for helping us and saving the Grand Dozer.
Rosie: At least the Nightmare Prince will be a lot easier than Darkrai.
Nick: And he's not as scary as Darkrai, too.
Keiko: Looks like our work here is done. Come on, gang! Let's go home!
(After one last goodbye, the Midnight Patrol leaves the Dream Zone. But they know that their new adventures are just beginning)
