Nursing Granite the Earth Giant Back to Health/Parents and Sons Bond

*(After following Kocoum and Namotak, everyone soon arrived with the two to the very spot they found this Earth Giant, and sure enough, as Kocoum and Namotak pointed out in the last chapter, he is injured badly on his right forearm, with a big cracked gash-like wound and only mud was spilling a bit from the wound, representing his blood. And around the Earth Giant, are his other Earth Giant brethren and even some of the animals, Air Spirits, who are obviously brethren to Gale, Light Fairies, who are also obviously brethren to Iridsella, and Fire Salamanders, who are also obviously brethren to Bruni. Everyone soon got shocked, although the Team Rocket Thieves and Fat Tony’s gang stood back with calm concerned looks)*

Female Powhatan 1: My goodness….

Male Powhatan 1: He *is* injured….

*(Fluttershy then noticed the Earth Giant’s cut and winced in discomfort)*

Fluttershy: Ooh! That is bleeding mud instead of blood terribly!

*(Hearing her, the Earth Giant noticed her and the expedition, and got calmly angry as he gave a low gravely growl. Upon seeing him do that, Popple immediately realized who that Earth Giant is)*

Popple: (Nervously) Uh, that must be the same Earth Giant that separated us earlier.

*(Chief Powhatan then reassured Popple)*

Chief Powhatan: It’ll be fine.

*(He then turned to Stellaluna)*

Chief Powhatan: Stellaluna, you have healing magic, right?

Stellaluna: (Nods in an understanding way) Yes.

*(Then she approached the Earth Giant cautiously as the Earth Giant growled softly. Then after Stellaluna arrived up to the Earth Giant’s injured arm, Pocahontas, Rikku, San, Therru, and Celebi approached as well. Seeing the five coming up, the Earth Giant eased down calmly)*

Therru: (Soothingly) It’ll be fine.

*(Stellaluna then gently placed her hands on the Earth Giant’s cut, but upon her touching it, the Earth Giant reacted in pain and roared in pain, surprising everyone, even scaring the animals, Air Spirits, Fire Salamanders, Light Fairies, and non-serious people that they immediately backed off a bit. Then the Earth Giant roared angrily in Stellaluna’s face, literally blowing wind from his loud roar in her face. Then as soon as that’s done, Stellaluna started scolding him, apparently understanding his Earth Giant language since she has magic powers from Shirabad)*

Stellaluna: (Scoldingly) Well, if you’d just stay still and stop screaming, it won’t hurt much!

*(The Earth Giant loudly growled a bit)*

Stellaluna: Relax!

*(The Earth Giant suddenly got surprised, that his anger immediately turned to surprise due to Stellaluna actually ordering him around, giving a graveled groan of confusion. Even the other Earth Giants, other Air Spirits, other Light Fairies, and other Fire Salamanders, got surprised. Then they look at Bruni, Gale, and Iridsella, who then nods with calm smug smiles, as if saying “Stellaluna knows what’s she’s doing right now.” Getting those looks from the three, they calmed down and watched Stellaluna, Pocahontas, Therru, San, Rikku, and Celebi carefully cleaning the Earth Giant’s wound with some water from Figment’s magic. Stellaluna then gently places her hands on the wound again, and this time, she then sang her incantation)*

Stellaluna: **Flower, gleam and glow**

**Let your power shine**

**Make the clock….**

*(Then she noticed the wound not glowing by her glow, much to her and everyone else’s, except the Shirabad civilians, confusion. Then on cue as she stopped singing upon noticing this, Stellaluna stopped glowing)*

Party Favor: Why isn’t your healing magic working here?

Stellaluna: I don’t know. I’m singing the right incantation, but….

*(Then San took a closer look as the wound and realized)*

San: I think you need to do another incantation.

Stellaluna: (Curiously) Another incantation?

San: (Nods) Yes.

Celebi: That incantation can heal these kind of wounds with my power.

Zorua: But if someone is dying and far from saving, then my powers will help that incantation ease the dying one out of his or her pain.

Therru: In fact, Pocahontas sang that song for you, Stellaluna, as a lullaby.

*(Stellaluna turned to Pocahontas in interest)*

Stellaluna: Really?

Pocahontas: (Nods) Yes.

*(Pocahontas then began singing the other incantation)*

Pocahontas: ***A naoidhean bhig*, *cluinn mo ghuth* (Little baby, hear my voice)**

***Mise ri d’ thaobh*, *Ó mhaighdean bhàn* (I’m beside you, O maiden fair)**

***Ar rìbhinn òg*, *fàs a’s faic* (Our young lady, grow and see)**

***Do thìr*, *dìleas fhéin* (Your land, your own faithful land)**

***A ghrian a’s a ghealach*, *stiùir sinn* (Sun and moon, guide us)**

***Gu uair ar cliù ‘s ar glòir* (To the hour of our glory and honor)**

***Naoidhean bhig*, *ar rìbhinn òg* (Little baby, our young lady)**

***Mhaighdean uasal bhàn* (Noble maiden fair)**

*(As she sang this, she glowed and this time, the wound slowly glowed with her. Then as she finished singing, she then sang again, this time with Stellaluna, now getting it, San, Therru, Rikku, and Celebi joining in)*

Stellaluna, Rikku, Pocahontas, San, Therru, and Celebi: ***A naoidhean bhig*, *cluinn mo ghuth* (Little baby, hear my voice)**

***Mise ri d’ thaobh*, *Ó mhaighdean bhàn* (I’m beside you, O maiden fair)**

***Ar rìbhinn òg*, *fàs a’s faic* (Our young lady, grow and see)**

***Do thìr*, *dìleas fhéin* (Your land, your own faithful land)**

***A ghrian a’s a ghealach*, *stiùir sinn* (Sun and moon, guide us)**

***Gu uair ar cliù ‘s ar glòir* (To the hour of our glory and honor)**

***Naoidhean bhig*, *ar rìbhinn òg* (Little baby, our young lady)**

***Mhaighdean uasal bhàn* (Noble maiden fair)**

*(Then as they sang together, the wound got enveloped in the glow even more as everyone watched in calm amazement and silence. Then as soon as the six finished their song, the glow died down, and surprise, surprise, the wound is now gone, for the other incantation has healed it. Even everyone else was calmly and silently amazed by what they saw. Soon enough, Pazu figured it out)*

Pazu: So, the day Stellaluna was born…. You, Mom, were the former thief who, along with Pocahontas, was bestowed the same healing magic as Stellaluna, Latios, and the goddesses….

Zack: (Nods in agreement) Hence why she helped Stellaluna heal your wound earlier.

Rikku: Yep.

*(The Earth Giant then looked at his healed arm, and softly groaned a bit as he looked at Stellaluna in gratitude)*

Stellaluna: You’re welcome.

*(Iridsella then flew up to Stellaluna)*

Iridsella: Stellaluna….

*(She points at Stellaluna’s ring, and as soon as Stellaluna looked at it, she then noticed that the green crystal is now bright. She then smiled softly)*

Stellaluna: One more element left to tame, and that’s water.

*(Then the Earth Giant gently stroked Stellaluna with his finger to get her attention, much to everyone’s notice)*

Fidget: (To the Earth Giant) What?

*(The Earth Giant then picked up a nearby thick stick and wrote his name on the ground, and it reads….)*

Lavagirl: “Granite.”

Bunny: You wrote that because you’re telling the newcomers your name.

*(Interested, the expedition turned to the Earth Giant, now revealed to be Granite)*

Ace: Wow, so Granite’s your name.

*(Granite nods with a calm soft smile. Later, back at the village, everyone is hanging around while Granite is sitting nearby the village, on guard with Bruni, Iridsella, Latios, and the goddesses, but Gale is nowhere to be seen. Nearby the river, Pazu, Sheeta, Leatherhead, and Zack’s groups, Figment, Popple, Yoshi, Fidget, Raksha, Pocahontas, John, Stellaluna, and even Hook, Smee, Jessie, James, and Meowth are hanging out together, eating some dry meat, and Tooth is the only one up on a nearby tree canopy above them, on the lookout for something)*

Spike: (Trying to chew his dry meat) Sheesh, even though this dry meat is crunchy, it’s hard to chew it.

*(He takes his piece out of his mouth)*

Spike: Like rubber.

San: (Her mouth full) Well…. *(Swallows her chewed piece)* You just gotta munch on it really hard.

*(She then bites another part of her dry meat really hard and with one powerful tug with her hand and her head, she breaks a chunk off and chews on it really hard. Spike tried it again on his piece, and surprisingly, he succeeded this time. Then he swallowed his chewed piece)*

Spike: You were right. That worked.

San: See?

Arren: Well, it’s like they always say; Practice makes perfect.

*(He bites his chunk and eats it. Jessie, James, and Meowth then turned to Stellaluna)*

Jessie: Well, I gotta say, what you did for that Earth Giant….

Meowth: We’re impressed.

James: And besides, he is lucky that wound isn’t mortal, otherwise Zorua using her magic with that incantation would’ve whacked him instead.

Pinkie Pie: (Confused) “Whacked?”

Hook: He meant “Whacked” as in….

*(He then makes a throat slit gesture, making Pinkie Pie realize)*

Pinkie Pie: (To Hook) Oh, *killed* him. *(To James)* Sorry, I didn’t know what you meant before.

Applejack: It’s just that some of us don’t understand mafia language like you do easily. It’s just confusing to those who don’t know it.

James: It’s alright.

Meowth: (Shrugs casually) Not everyone could understand.

*(Then they, along with Tooth, see Fat Tony’s gang approach them upon hearing them walk up to them)*

Jessie: Oh, hey, Boss, guys.

Snake: What are you doingssss here?

*(Fat Tony shrugs casually)*

Fat Tony: Just checkin’ on ya, mostly Jessie, James, and Meowth.

Legs: Is that a crime?

Hook: (Nonchalantly) Not really.

Johnny: Well, mind if we hang out for a bit?

Hook: (Objecting politely) We’re perfectly….

Rest of group: (At the same time Hook said the above line) Yes!

Leatherhead: Even though you threatened my sultan and sultaness yesterday, ol’ Leatherhead and the others don’t see why you can’t, considering you let your three capos *(Gestures to Jessie, James, and Meowth)* hang out with us.

*(Fat Tony’s gang then sat down with them, with Fat Tony and Johnny pulling their respective cigar and cigarette out and lit them with their lighters)*

Twilight Sparkle: Um, Fat Tony…?

Fat Tony: We know….

*(Fat Tony and Johnny closed up their lighters and puts them away. Then Fat Tony puffs on his cigar a bit and blew some smoke out into the air)*

Fat Tony: (Nods) Smoking is bad.

Johnny: (Puts his cigarette onto his lips) We *are* honestly trying to quit.

*(He puffs his cigarette a bit and blew some smoke as well)*

Popple: Want my advice? The best way to quit quickly, is to find something healthy to be addicted to do instead.

Ember: Like Popple, for example, he used to have a huge total obsession with treasure.

Popple: But eventually, I overcame it, a little. I eventually came to be obsessed and addicted to….

*(He pulls out a celery stick)*

Popple: Vegetables.

*(He bites and eats the celery stick. Legs then turned to Louie)*

Legs: Told ya vegetables are good for you.

Louie: I’d rather eat fruit and certain vegetables I like than vegetables I don’t like.

*(Then Johnny took his cigarette off his lips and squished it on the ground with his foot after dropping it)*

North: So…. What other things do you do besides your criminal activities?

Fat Tony: (Shrugs) The usual, like most other people do.

North: Such as?

Fat Tony: Cooking, skeet shooting, reading…. Heck, we even enjoy listening and singing great music.

*(The group, while Fat Tony dropped his cigar on the ground and squished it with his foot, then got calmly impressed, even Hook is somewhat impressed, despite not completely trusting towards Fat Tony’s gang)*

Hook: (Flatly) Huh.

Raksha: I guess even mobsters *can* have normal hobbies and lives besides their usual crime activities.

Jessie: Exactly.

*(Fat Tony’s gang then noticed Tooth on the tree canopy above them, who waved back at them)*

Louie: (To the group) What’s Tooth doin’ up there, on patrol?

Jack: Yeah, we asked her to send Gale and some of her Mini Tooth Fairies to go check on Charlie and Sasha, see how they are in their daughters and nieces and their friends’ absence.

Adagio: It was our request.

Itchy: No shame in checking up on them.

*(Then Gale and some Mini Tooth Fairies, one of them Baby Tooth, arrived to Tooth)*

Tooth: So, how are Charlie and Sasha?

*(Back with the group, they are watching Tooth conversing with Gale, Baby Tooth, and the Mini Tooth Fairies in the canopy, and then, Tooth, Gale, Baby Tooth, and the Mini Tooth Fairies slowly flew down to them, looking concerned, much to their notice as the group, except Fat Tony's gang, stood up)*

Billy: How are Charlie and Sasha?

Tooth: Well, Gale and the fairies have both good news and bad news.

*(The group got confused, while Fat Tony’s gang just stood back, still seated, listening)*

Arturo: What happened?

*(Grubber blew a raspberry in question)*

Tooth: Well, the good news is they, along with the people of Agrabah, are doing fine.

*(The group got relieved)*

Sonata: Wonderful.

*(Then the group got confused)*

Aria: And the bad news?

*(Yoshi chirps in question. Tooth, Gale, Baby Tooth, and the Mini Tooth Fairies got calmly grim, that Baby Tooth even squeaked a bit to Tooth, as if saying “Tell them.” Tooth then proceeded to tell them in a calm grim way)*

Tooth: The bad news….

*(She looked at Sheeta’s group)*

Tooth: Sheeta’s group….

*(Sheeta’s group got calmly concerned)*

Sheeta’s group: What?

Tooth: (Sighs) Your parents informed Gale and the fairies that…. Your grandmother has just passed away from natural causes….

*(Hearing those words, the group got calmly shocked. Even Sheeta’s group, upon hearing her say that, calmly felt shocked that their calm reaction resembled that they’ve been run over by a running train repeatedly. Watching this, Fat Tony’s gang was even calmly shocked at the news. The group looked at Sheeta’s group in calm concern)*

Itchy: Princesses….

Leatherhead: Sorry….

*(Sheeta’s group, slowly becoming sad calmly, collapsed on their knees. The group then sat next to them)*

Pazu’s group: Sheeta, girls….

Sharkboy: We know it hurts.

Lavagirl: (In calm sadness) Our grandmother and us were really close.

*(Then Louie piped in in a joking tone, getting their attention)*

Louie: (Laughs a bit, sarcastically) Well, it’s like we always say; Whenever someone gives a good whack, they sleep with fishes harder.

*(He and Fat Tony’s gang laugh a bit. Hearing him say that, Sheeta’s group calmly start to tear up, about to cry. Noticing that in calm concern, the group and even Jessie, James, and Meowth gave flat looks to Fat Tony’s gang that reads “Was that really necessary?” Noticing their looks, Fat Tony’s gang stopped their laughter calmly and got confused)*

Fat Tony’s gang: (Confused) What?

*(Then they heard Sheeta’s group calmly starting to cry softly. Seeing this, the group, mostly Pazu’s group, try to comfort them)*

Ogremon: (Soothingly) Hey, hey….

Lila: (Soothingly) No need to cry, dears.

*(Sheeta’s group, after Sheeta pulls her light blue handkerchief out of her shorts pocket and began fiddling with it calmly, tearfully hugs each member of Pazu’s group for comfort, to which they did)*

Ace: (Soothingly) It’ll be fine.

*(Grubber blew some soft raspberries, and Ace translated)*

Ace: Grubber said “Even if your grandmother is gone, she’s there within you.”

*(Sheeta’s group sobbed softly)*

Sonata: (Crying) We know.

Trixie: (Crying) That’s very sweet of you to say that, but it’s just….

*(She sobs)*

Starlight: (Crying) We were so close since we were little girls.

Lavagirl: (Crying) And just when we thought we were gonna visit her during our honeymoon.

*(Zack’s group, Jessie, James, and Meowth got confused along with Fat Tony’s gang, who is watching this in silence)*

Pedro: What do you mean?

Isa: Did you make plans?

Agrabah group, except Sheeta’s group: Yeah.

Cynder: We were, under Charlie and Sasha’s idea, gonna take Pazu and Sheeta’s groups to visit Sheeta’s group’s grandmother in another town near Agrabah.

Spyro: As part of their honeymoon, after our mission to bring peace between Agrabah and Shirabad.

Sparx: But now, hearing these devastating news, I guess it was all for nothing now.

*(Sheeta’s group then finished their tearful hug with Pazu’s group and Sheeta started to explain away while crying calmly and using her handkerchief to wipe her tears away)*

Sheeta: (Crying) It’s good enough that Pazu’s group and us are going to other places for our upcoming honeymoon, but this terrible turn of events….

*(She starts going on the verge of crying her eyes)*

Sheeta: (Starting to cry hysterically in a calm way) If we’d known, we never got to even see Grandma and say goodbye to her one last time!

*(She then broke down crying hysterically in her handkerchief while the group watched in calm silence and sympathy, with Popple and even Jessie, James, and Meowth starting to tear up calmly, and Popple pulling out his light purple handkerchief from his pants pocket. Fat Tony’s gang, on the other hand, hearing this, were calmly speechless with a hint of sympathy, unsure what to do on the situation)*

Popple: (Starting to cry) Oh, gosh…! Please stop your crying, girls…!

Jessie: (Starting to cry) It’s just heartbreaking to us…!

James: (Starting to cry) You’re even making the four of us…!

Meowth: (Starting to cry) Now look what you did…!

*(Then Popple, Jessie, James, and Meowth broke down crying calmly, with Popple blowing his nose on his handkerchief. Seeing this in calm silence, Fat Tony’s gang then got calmly determined, got up, sat beside Pazu and Sheeta’s groups, and Fat Tony then gently placed his hand on Sheeta’s shoulder, calmly making her stop crying for a moment, unbury her face, and look at Fat Tony’s gang with her tearstained eyes and cheeks. Even Popple, Jessie, James, and Meowth calmly stopped crying and listened and watched)*

Fat Tony: Hey.

Legs: You really think it’s over just because you lost someone?

Johnny: Well, it’s all part of the whole circle of life thing, know what we mean?

Louie: Just because your grandma’s gone, doesn’t mean she’s gone forever.

*(To the group’s calm surprise and amazement, Sheeta’s group then started to calmly ease down their sadness. Realizing Fat Tony’s gang is comforting Sheeta’s group, Pazu’s group then joined in)*

Snake: They havessss a point.

Arturo: Sure, your *abuela’s* dead, but she’s there within you.

Billy: In your udder.

*(He gently lays his hand on Sonata’s chest where her heart is)*

Ace: It’s called a heart, Billy.

Billy: (Realizing, chuckles sheepishly a bit) Oh, yeah. Sorry.

Sharkboy: (Gently wipes Lavagirl’s tear away with his thumb) So, you don’t have to be sad forever.

Pazu: (Agreeing) You still have us.

*(Fat Tony’s gang nods in agreement)*

Fat Tony: Even your fiancés agree.

*(Sheeta then sniffled. Noticing, Johnny groans a bit)*

Johnny: Your nose is stuffy.

*(Sheeta, realizing, then blew her nose on her handkerchief and then wiped her tears away)*

Sheeta: (Feeling a bit better upon finishing) Thanks.

Lavagirl and Dazzlings: (Agreeing, feeling a bit better) Yeah….

*(Fat Tony’s gang then proceeded to continue on)*

Fat Tony: Now, you and everyone else listen to me and my men, Princesses.

Louie: You got the makings of greatness in ya, along with your family and friends.

Legs: But you gotta take the stand and chart your own path.

Johnny: And to do so, stick to it, no matter the obstacles, and when the time comes….

Fat Tony: (Finishing, which Johnny lets him) You’ll get the chance to really test your skills and show everyone what you’re made of.

Legs: And to also do so, it’s alright to know when to move on from any tragedy you’ll come upon.

*(Feeling better calmly upon hearing this along with a now cheered up Popple, Jessie, James, and Meowth, Sheeta’s group smiled softly as they blinked the last of their tears away and then, to Fat Tony’s gang’s calm surprise along with everyone else, Sheeta’s group immediately happily hugged them in gratitude, with Sheeta still holding her handkerchief. Even Pazu’s group, in gratitude, joined in the hug. Still calmly surprised along with everyone by Pazu and Sheeta’s groups suddenly hugging them in gratitude, Fat Tony’s gang then composed themselves by clearing their throats a bit and then got calmly tough, despite remaining soft and softly smiling a little bit)*

Fat Tony: Wow. Yesterday, we threatened the parents of the princesses, then today, we tried to kill you earlier due to Swackhammer’s group blackmailing us, but….

Louie: Uh, I think you’re suffocating us.

Legs and Johnny: Really tightly.

*(Realizing, Pazu and Sheeta’s groups got sheepish and stopped hugging them)*

Pazu and Sheeta’s groups: (Sheepishly apologetic) Sorry.

*(Sheeta then puts her handkerchief away in her shorts pocket while Popple puts his handkerchief back in his pants pocket. Then everyone stood up)*

Zack: Well, shall we head back then?

Everyone: Yeah.

*(Then they head back to the village. Unknown to any of them, Demidevimon and Joanna secretly saw the whole thing with calm bitter looks within a bush. Then they left. With the group, once back at the village, Fat Tony’s gang then headed off somewhere)*

Tempest Shadow/Fizzlepop Berrytwist: Going to bed or on patrol?

*(Fat Tony’s gang turned to them)*

Fat Tony: Bed.

Louie: Even mobsters need a good night’s sleep.

Sparx: (Shrugs in agreement) Who wouldn’t?

Figment: (Transforming into Rip Van Winkle) Rip Van Winkle wouldn’t.

*(Then he changed back. Then Fat Tony’s gang turned to Jessie, James, and Meowth)*

Fat Tony: You gonna sleep with them?

Jessie, James, and Meowth: (Nods) Yep.

James: And we don’t mean with the fishes.

*(They, along with the group, chuckled a bit. Even Fat Tony’s gang smiled a bit at the joke. Then with that, Fat Tony’s gang left. After that’s done, Ashitaka turned to San)*

Ashitaka: Hey, San?

San: Yes?

Ashitaka: Remember earlier when I said I made something for you with Kaya’s help?

San: (Realizing) Oh, yes. Where is it?

Kaya: Ashitaka has it.

Ashitaka: Right here.

*(He then pulled out something from his red bag pouch, revealing to be a medium blue obsidian crystal dagger tied to a red string like a necklace. The group, even San, got calmly amazed)*

San: That’s for me?

Ashitaka: (Nods) Your mother and brothers also helped in its creation.

*(San then accepted the obsidian crystal dagger necklace from Ashitaka and held it up, smiling softly at her gift)*

San: It’s pretty….

*(She then looked at Ashitaka, smiling softly still)*

San: Thank you.

*(She then puts the obsidian crystal dagger necklace on around her neck underneath her fang necklace)*

San: I’ll treasure it along with our love, always.

*(The group then realized what that means in calm happiness)*

Twilight Sparkle: I, along with everyone else here, read about this. In Shirabad tradition when it comes to love between lovers, a lover must bestow a gift to his or her lover.

Sheeta: (To Twilight Sparkle in agreement) That’s right. *(To San in curiosity)* What did you give to Ashitaka for a gift?

San: (Gladly answering) I gave him a special jeweled armband.

*(Ashitaka, with a soft smile, then removed his right side arm cloth gauntlet from his shoulder part by untying it from the other cloth gauntlet from underneath his tunic, then pulling it down to his forearm, and then pulling his tunic’s right sleeve up, revealing a medium blue obsidian crystal armband on his right shoulder)*

Ashitaka: (Nods) It’s true.

*(The group got amazed and impressed)*

Soarin: Cool.

*(Then while Ashitaka pulled up his cloth gauntlet back up, retied it with the other one underneath his tunic again, and then pulled his tunic sleeve down again, Pazu and Zack’s groups then began talking to each other)*

Zack: You know, boys, my group and I, well…. We never saw Fat Tony’s gang comfort someone else like that before.

Pazu: Neither did me and my group, it was just a big surprise to us.

*(Sandy even agreed with his sand image symbols above his head, as if saying “Normally, he and his men would never show sympathy to others due to being tough guys.” Bunny and Discord then agreed with Sandy)*

Bunny: You said it, Sandy.

Discord: Couldn't agree with you more.

*(Gale then fluttered around Pazu and Sheeta’s groups happily, making them chuckle a bit)*

Stellaluna: I guess Gale is saying “Good night” to us.

Pazu and Sheeta’s groups: (Nods with soft smiles) Obviously.

*(They turned to Gale)*

Group: Good night.

*(Gale nods a “Good night” back at them, and then flew off back on patrol with Bruni, Granite, Iridsella, Latios, and the goddesses. Tempest Shadow/Fizzlepop Berrytwist and Party Favor then turned to Spike, Ember, the Mane Seven, and Stallion Seven)*

Party Favor: Hey, guys. You remember how you asked the both of us if we'd like to join your teams?

Mane Seven and Stallion Seven: Yeah.

Spike and Ember: Why?

Party Favor: (Smiles softly) Well....

Tempest Shadow/Fizzlepop Berrytwist: We accept. We will join your teams.

*(Spike, Ember, the Mane Seven, and Stallion Seven immediately got happy upon hearing that)*

Spike, Ember, Mane Seven, and Stallion Seven: Wonderful!

*(Then while the Mane Seven handpiled with Tempest Shadow's/Fizzlepop Berrytwist's hand, the Stallion Seven handpiled with Party Favor's hand)*

Mane Seven and Tempest Shadow/Fizzlepop Berrytwist: And thus, we shall call ourselves.... The Mane Eight.

Stallion Seven and Party Favor: And thus, we shall call ourselves.... The Stallion Eight.

*(Then with that done, the Mane Seven and Stallion Seven are now called the Mane Eight and Stallion Eight as the group watched proudly in a calm way. Zack’s group then turned to Pazu’s group, changing the subject)*

Zack’s group: Listen, Pazu, guys….

Pazu’s group: What?

Lila: I know we haven’t spent much too much time together.

Pedro: You know, due to us unexpectedly abandoning you.

Ace: And like we said already, we forgave you for it.

Snake: But not forgetssss it.

*(Ace socks Snake in the face)*

Ace: Did I ask you to add that in?

Snake: Ssssorry, Acccce.

*(Figment, Popple, and Yoshi then came up Pazu and Zack’s groups)*

Popple: You know…. Figment is an expert when it comes to family quality times.

Figment: That’s right.

Yoshi: (Nods) Mm-hm.

*(The rest of the group, understanding this, nods and decided to leave Pazu and Zack’s groups, Popple, Yoshi, and Figment alone for this. And consisting Zack's group for this are Zack, Rikku, Pedro, Isa, Ogremon, Lila, the Guardians of Childhood, and Discord)*

Fidget: Well, it’s already 8:00 PM.

Stellaluna: You have all the time you need to spend together.

Pocahontas: We’ll meet you at the bonfire when you come back from that.

John: Have fun.

Pazu and Zack’s groups: (Nods) Okay!

*(They turned to Hook and Smee)*

Itchy: Do you mind on wishing them luck?

Hook: (Shrugs in agreement) Meh, best of luck.

Smee: (Cheerfully) Be safe!

*(Then with that, Zack’s group then led Pazu’s group, Figment, Popple, and Yoshi to a nearby bioluminescent crystal clear oasis-like spring in the forest, amazing Pazu’s group, Figment, Popple, and Yoshi)*

Pazu’s group, Figment, Popple, and Yoshi: Wow….

Popple: So beautiful….

Pazu’s group: Is this oasis-like spring your hangout spot?

Zack’s group: Yep.

North: Even Charlie and Sasha, along with the rest of Zack's group, Itchy, Leatherhead, Pocahontas, and John, loved to hang out here with us before.

*(Impressed, Figment then got excited)*

Figment: Now this is the perfect spot for you guys to spend all the quality time you deserved!

Popple: (Excitedly and hopeful to Figment) Courtesy of us?

Figment: (Excitedly in agreement) Courtesy of us!

Discord: Then take it away, Figment.

*(Then Figment, doing what Discord said, closed some curtains, changing the scene to a fortune teller’s tent, complete with a zodiac chart and crystal ball. He then appears as Sorcerer Mickey from “Fantasia” and conjures up a telescope. The lens turns toward the camera, showing Pazu and Zack’s groups riding on some stars with the rest of Zack’s group, Popple, and Yoshi happily magically pulling them like sled dogs)*

Figment: **It’s a big, bright, beautiful future**

**Thank your lucky stars you’re together**

*(Figment then changes into Sagittarius)*

Figment: **Y’all got someone special to talk to**

*(Then he changes into Gemini)*

Figment: **Some friends that you can trust for life**

*(A comet whizzes by and changes the scene again. Figment and Zack’s group appeared together, and the former opens up two flaps of his scaly skin, revealing several neckties underneath the right side for the men and several beaded necklaces underneath the left for the women. He then takes one necktie with red and blue stripes and snares the parents of Zack’s group, as well as Pazu’s group, in it with his face on the front)*

Figment: **You’ve been on your own**

Discord: **With no family ties**

North: **But those solo days are done**

Tooth: **You’ll be fourteen of a kind**

Jack: **Spending quality time together**

Bunny: **As parents and sons**

*(Figment conjures up a pirate ship, then he appears with Zack’s group, riding a fish. Then they rode together on the lagoon with Pazu’s group)*

Figment and North: **Buildin’ model ships**

Figment and Jack: **Takin’ fishin’ trips**

Figment and Tooth: **Workin’ hand in hand**

*(Figment’s hands then each conjured up six paint cans and brushes for Zack’s group, and seven lawnmowers for Pazu’s group, who then takes off with them and even an excited Popple and Yoshi)*

Figment: **Paintin’ the palace**

Popple: **Mowin’ the sand**

*(Figment then appears as a referee on a football field)*

Figment: **First and ten to go**

*(Zack and Pazu’s groups run across, with Ogremon carrying a football)*

Rest of Zack’s group, Figment, and Popple: **With your parent-o’s**

*(Figment then hits the field with a hammer, causing it to break like ice, and the twelve fell through a space-like background complete with a gravity-defying waterfall)*

Figment: **Once you break the ice**

*(Then, Figment appears as Albert Einstein in front of a chalkboard)*

Figment: (Imitating Einstein) **You can postulate parental advice**

*(He still appears as Einstein, but with his face on the planet Saturn)*

Figment: (Imitating Einstein) **See, you’re traveling at the speed of light**

**That’s the theory of relatives**

*(He then changes back and catches Pazu and Zack’s groups, Popple, and Yoshi and throws them into a Jetson-esque spaceship with him at the controls as George Jetson)*

Figment: **It’s a fine, fantabulous future**

*(Figment then appears as an apple tree)*

Figment: **I see fruit on the family trees**

*(Figment appears as an old man)*

Figment: (Imitating an old man) **You’ll be great as grumpy grandparents**

*(Figment then appeared as three babies)*

Three Baby Figments: (In high-pitched voices) **Bouncing babies on your knees**

*(Then we see Figment, back in his normal form, lying on a couch and, with the rest of Zack’s group, Popple, and Yoshi’s help, tossing a basketball to Pazu and Zack’s groups)*

Figment: **You can fall asleep on the comfy couch**

Jack: **After playin’ one-on-one**

*(Zack and Pazu’s groups appear on a basketball court playing against Figment as Shaquille O'Neal, as well as the rest of Zack’s group, Popple, and Yoshi)*

Figment: (Imitating Shaq) **Dreamin’ back-to-back**

**That you walloped the Shaq together**

*(Ace scores a basket, and the ball lands on Sandy’s finger, who twirls it like he’s one of the Harlem Globetrotters. Then the rest of Zack’s group, Figment, back in his normal form, Popple, and Yoshi are revealed to be standing on Ogremon’s shoulders)*

Rest of Zack’s group, Figment, and Popple: **As parents and sons**

*(Then Pazu and Zack’s groups are seen riding in bumper cars with Figment’s face on them, having a good time so far)*

Zack’s group: **May be a bumpy ride**

Pazu’s group: **We’ll make it side-by-side**

*(Suddenly, both cars stop, and a safety bar drapes over them. They are now with the rest of Zack’s group, Popple, and Yoshi, sitting in a rollercoaster car on top of a hill. Then Figment appears as a stewardess next to a lever)*

Figment: (Imitating a stewardess) **Good afternoon, I’ll be your travel guide**

*(He pulls the lever, and Pazu and Zack’s groups, Popple, Yoshi, and even Figment are sent careening down the hill, then into Figment’s arms)*

Figment: **Move over, boys**

**Make room for Mommies and Daddies**

*(Then three Figments stood on each of Rikku, Isa, and Lila’s right shoulders)*

Figment: **You got some whole new shoulders to cry on**

*(Then he jumps down and spins a wheel with Pazu’s group’s faces on each wedge)*

Figment: **Take a chance, now give it a spin**

*(He makes paper dolls that look like the Team Rocket Thieves)*

Figment: **You’ve had “Chums” for pallin’ around with**

*(Then he reshapes the papers to look like Pazu’s group)*

Figment: **But you never had some friends like them**

Discord: Exactly.

*(A screen wipe using a red and white checkered cloth cuts to a table with Figment (Appearing as Marlon Brando as Don Vito Corleone from “The Godfather”) sitting there with a plate of spaghetti and meatballs, next to the rest of Zack’s group, Popple, and Yoshi, dressed as mafia men)*

Figment: (Imitating Don Corleone) **Put your checkered past behind you now**

*(A light shines on Pazu and Zack’s groups)*

Figment: (Imitating Don Corleone) **No more livin’ all alone**

*(Zack’s group then appears with Pazu’s group in a Brady Bunch-styled panel with Figment filling up the rest of the squares, courtesy of the rest of Zack’s group, Popple, and Yoshi)*

Figment: (Imitating the Brady Family) **Face the big, bright, beautiful future**

**Together, together, together, together....**

*(Then the Figments, the rest of Zack’s group, Popple, and Yoshi scrunch the middle row of squares together, and they all reappear on Figment’s hands with Zack’s group giving Pazu’s group playful noogies, much to their delight)*

Figment, rest of Zack’s group, and Popple: **As parents and sons**

Yoshi: Yoshi!

*(The song over, they then return to the oasis-like spring, having had their fun happily, laughing a bit. Then at the village, Pazu and Zack’s groups, Figment, Popple, and Yoshi returned happily. Then they met up with the rest of the group, including a soft smiling Chief Powhatan, at the bonfire)*

Group: (Greeting each other) Hey!

Sheeta: Did you have a fun time?

Stellaluna: Please tell us you had a good time.

Pazu’s group: (Smiling softly at Zack’s group) We sure did.

Zack’s group: (Smiling softly at Pazu’s group) And we loved every minute of it.

Discord: (Nods in agreement) That is true. You should have seen them laughing together, along with us.

Figment: Thanks to me and the others here *(Gestures to the rest of Zack's group, Popple, and Yoshi)* helping out.

*(The group smiled softly, glad to hear that. Then Chief Powhatan went up to Hook, Smee, and the parents members of Zack’s group with a soft smile)*

Chief Powhatan: Guys, if you like, you can sleep in my teepee tonight.

*(The parents members of Zack’s group, Hook, and Smee got curious)*

Hook and Smee: Really?

Zack’s group: Are you sure?

Chief Powhatan: I am positive.

*(Hook, Smee, and the parents members of Zack’s group, after contemplating this, gave in with a nod along with everyone else)*

Group: Okay.

*(Then the group bidded their good nights to each other)*

Group: Good night.

*(Then with that, Hook, Smee, and the parents members of Zack’s group went with Chief Powhatan to his teepee. Once in Pocahontas and John’s teepee, the group, dressed in pajamas, got ready for bed as well)*

Leatherhead: Somethin’ tells me that, for some reason, Chief Powhatan wanted to talk to Hook, Smee, and you and your group’s parents about somethin', Pazu.

Pazu: (Agreeing) But, if that’s the case, the question is why?

*(They shrugged it off)*

Sharkboy: Who cares for now?

Group: (Agreeing) Yeah.

Pocahontas: We’ll find out in the morning, when we ask Father for permission to borrow the map to Aztlán.

John: That’s right.

Group: Okay. Good night.

Pocahontas and John: Good night.

*(Then with that, they went to bed while outside in the village, the bonfire’s flames were put out, the lights were turned off, and even Bruni, Granite, Gale, Iridsella, Latios, and the goddesses went to sleep as well)*

***Coming up: After meeting up with Swackhammer’s group in an empty cavern secretly along with Fat Tony’s gang still at night, McLeach, Vicious, the Team Rocket Thieves, as well as Swackhammer’s group, begins pointing out to Fat Tony’s gang that they’ve gone soft on the heroes from what Demidevimon and Joanna saw earlier, Fat Tony’s gang then claims they have not gotten soft and then McLeach, Vicious, and Swackhammer’s group proceed to encourage Fat Tony’s gang and the Team Rocket Thieves to proceed in making a plan to get their hands on the Golden Hand of Midas. Then the next morning, Pazu’s group will then, much to the heroes’ concern, get into a fallout with their parents involving the map of Aztlán, resulting Zack’s group to leave them alone in shame, which will then lead to the villains to kidnap Pazu’s group’s parents.***
