Fidget and Team Rocket to the Rescue/Crash's Group’s Return

*(Outside on top of a building later, Meowth's group, no longer with tears in their eyes, frowned sadly as they sat down looking out at the city)*

Meowth: Man, it seemed like yesterday wasn't it?

Jessie: One minute we were in power with Merlock's group and their goons, but now....

Fidget: (Sighs) We're thankfully not.

James: I guess we did, in fact, felt a bunch of remorse for the actions we caused before.

Jessie: Especially considering that Merlock's group lied about giving us treasure as our reward.

James: And we, unfortunately, have no home to go to ever since.... *(He sighs sadly)* Our families....

*(They looked at the palace in the distance nearby)*

James: Looks like the only place left to go is the palace.

Fidget: Yep.

Meowth: And we got to find a way to get back into that, and try to convince everyone there *and* in this city that we have repented.

Jessie: So what's a bunch of people like us to do in order to do that?

Fidget: And besides, they won't believe us or take us in even if we begged in remorse.

*(They became lost in thought. Meanwhile Ash, Matt, and Tombo, wearing their prince outfits, along with Ash's gang, with Megavolt all cleaned up, Crunch, Aku-Aku, Stellaluna, Meowzie, and Darkwing and Tai's groups headed out of the palace)*

Ash: So guys, before dinner, how about we see what the common folks are doing today?

Launchpad: That's a good idea!

Izzy: (Agreeing) And besides, this'll be our first duties as guards.

Quackerjack: (Jokingly) After you, old chap!

Megavolt: (Chuckles a bit) Good one, Quackie.

Joe: Or better yet....

*(He and the rest of the males politely gestured to the females)*

Darkwing: Ladies first.

TK: After you.

Female members of Ash's group: (Flattered) Aw, thank you.

*(Then as they walked off, Meowth's group snapped out of their thoughts and, upon looking down, unknowingly spotted them. Then they took a double take and looked down again, seeing them fully this time)*

Jessie: So those boys and their gang who were once street rats are living in the palace now?

James: (Flatly) Okay, it's official. This place is getting crazy.

*(Then Fidget and Meowth noticed Stellaluna and Meowzie and gave calm amazed looks, the same looks Ash's group gave when they first saw Serena's group on the day they first met)*

Fidget and Meowth: Wow....

*(Noticing Fidget and Meowth's lovestruck reaction, Jessie and James spoke up)*

James: Fidget, Meowth?

Jessie: Earth to Fidget and Meowth?

*(Jessie snapped her fingers in Fidget and Meowth's faces, snapping them out of it)*

Fidget and Meowth: What?

Jessie: You both seem to like that girl bat and girl cat Pokemon suddenly.

Fidget and Meowth: (Hesitantly) "Like them?"

Fidget: (Nervously) Oh, no, no, no! I don't have a crush on the girl bat.

Meowth: (Nervously) Let alone the girl cat Pokemon.

Jessie: (Teasingly) Sure you don't.

*(Fidget and Meowth, hearing her tone, gave in)*

Meowth: Okay, Fidget and I like those gals.

Fidget: They're so beautiful.

*(Then Meowth perked up excitedly)*

Meowth: Wait. this is perfect! Maybe if we can earn sympathy from the girl bat and girl cat Pokemon, then maybe, just maybe, those two can convince everyone that we *are* reformed!

*(He laughs joyfully a bit, making his group think about it and perk up in agreement)*

James: (Hopefully) And hopefully, we can have a home at last.

Fidget: Not a bad idea! And maybe you and me, Meowth, can start dating those girls.

Meowth: (Happily agreeing) I like that idea as well! And besides, they're cute.

*(Meowth's group, while hidden, climbed down to the street on some crates)*

Jessie: Now, to get ourselves dirty.

*(Meowth's group then messed up their fur and hair, then throws some dirt and sand all over themselves)*

Jessie: Messy, but it works.

James: I hope we win them over, especially that girl bat and girl cat Pokemon of Fidget and Meowth's respective dreams.

*(Fidget and Meowth blushed a bit. Then Fidget and Meowth snapped out of their blush and gave a playful look along with Meowth's group. Ash's group came around a corner as they looked around some more. Then Meowth's group, still with playful looks, purposely knocked an empty crate nearby down, getting Ash's group's attention)*

Patamon: Huh, why did a crate fall down?

Kaya: Who's there?

*(Eevee chirps a bit in suspicion. Then, discarding their playful looks, Meowth's group crawled out of hiding with sad, yet exhausted, looks on their faces. Ash's group noticed them and got suspicious and angry while Stellaluna, Meowzie, and Tai's group got confused, yet suspicious)*

Ash: (Angrily) Fidget and Team Rocket?

Matt: (Angrily) What are you doing here?!

Darkwing: (Angrily) Why are you here?!

Pikachu: (Angrily) Pikachu?!

Meowth's group: (Weakly) Hello? Is someone here?

Meowth: (Weakly) Help us up….

Fidget: (Weakly) Please....

*(Quackerjack roughly help them up and then spun them around with his jumprope, making the dirt and sand fly off of them, cleaning them. After they finished spinning from that, Meowth's group recovered in annoyance)*

Fidget: Hey, hey!

Meowth: We didn’t mean help us up roughly!

Tombo: Why should we treat you nicely now?

Kaya: Yeah?

Bushroot: Especially after what you did to us in the past?

Gatomon: So they’re Jessie, James, and Meowth of Team Rocket and Fidget?

Gomamon: The losers you told us about?

Darkwing: Yep, yep, yep.

Morgana: They caused trouble for us before like we said.

Launchpad: Troublemakers who work for Merlock's group and their goons.

Meowth's group: Not anymore.

Fearsome Four: (Goes up to their faces) Liars!

Meowth: We swear, we mean it!

Fidget: Not anymore!

James: (Hanging his head in sadness) It's just that we were forced to work for them after some people dear to us were killed mysteriously. *(Tears up)* Even always treated us like yesterday’s trash like we don’t even exist.

*(Jessie then sobs with James)*

Jessie: (Crying) You don’t know what it’s like to be alone and abused like that.

James: (Crying) That's right.

*(The two broke down sobbing while the group, except Stellaluna and Meowzie, gave flat looks)*

Darkwing: (Crossing his arms angrily) There is no way we're falling for those crocodile tears you're shedding now.

*(Jessie and James sniffled as they wiped their own tears away and stopped crying slowly)*

Jessie: What we’re saying is the honest-to-Allah truth.

James: We mean it, no tricks.

Meowth: No scams.

Jessie: We promise.

Meowth: So, what do you say, pals?

*(Meowth's group held their hands out to Ash's group to take them. A short pause, then Ash's group, except Meowzie and Stellaluna, glared and crossed their arms)*

Ash: Bet that’s a new scam you’re making right now.

Aku-Aku: And we are not pals!

Crunch: That's right!

Pikachu: (Agreeing with a huff in agreement) Pika!

Darkwing: And we bet you're making all of this up.

Liquidator: Especially involving you losing your "Dear ones."

Launchpad: That must be a plan you concocted with Merlock's group.

Mimi: Something to make us morons.

Jessie: Look, it's bad enough Merlock's group lied to us about our "Reward," but....

Megavolt: (Skeptically) "Bad enough?" Well, it's *good* enough Ash's gang and I quit our thieving ways finally,

Quackerjack: (Sarcastically) But if you claim that you're "Reformed," then I'm the King of Siam.

Gizmoduck: So, I'm gonna have to suggest....

*(Suddenly, Stellaluna and Meowzie spoke up)*

Meowzie: Actually.... It might sound crazy, but....

Stellaluna: I honestly believe them.

Meowzie: So do I.

*(Meowth and Ash's groups got surprised upon hearing the two say that)*

Meowzie: Stellaluna and I could sense the honesty.

Stellaluna: Even though they are somewhat overexaggerating a bit on the sympathy part.

*(Silence, then just before Meowth's group could speak up, Megavolt butted in)*

Megavolt: Oh, what do you know about them?

Neptunia: Why would you believe *them*?

Gabumon: That doesn't mean....

Meowzie: But how can you tell?

Stellaluna: And for the record on why Meowzie and I believe them is because we were both abandoned too.

Meowzie: Even though we were never abused like them, we were just little girls when we were abandoned.

*(A short pause, then Tank and Megavolt spoke up)*

Tank: Are you being crazy like Megavolt is or are we?

Megavolt: They're losers, for crying out loud!

*(Eevee chirps angrily a bit in agreement)*

James: But we really didn't want any part of Merlock's group's takeover plot.

Gosalyn: Then prove it, if you have evidence.

James: We don't have any evidence.

Gosalyn: Then you're liars.

Megavolt: So, take what we say, or leave it.

Jessie: Come on, find it in you and the others' hearts to believe us like those two girls do, Mr. Sparky.

*(Shocked on what Jessie called him, Megavolt turned to her slowly, fuming red with anger, concerning the group)*

Tombo: Uh-oh. You shouldn't have called him that.

Quackerjack: You gone and hurt his feelings.

*(Even Eevees chirps a bit in concern)*

Megavolt: (To Jessie, fuming) What did you call me, you redheaded she-punk?

Jessie: I’m not insulting you like you just did to me, I just said….

*(Megavolt blasted an electric blast at Jessie in anger, but she dodged in a panic, causing her and Meowth's group to retreat in a panic and Ash’s group to give chase)*

Jessie: (Panicked) Don't hurt us!

Megavolt: You better run!

Ash: Come back here, you troublemakers!

Pikachu: (Calling out in anger) Pika, chu pika pika!

Meowth: (Calling back in shock and concern) Hey, again, leave our mothers out of this!

*(The groups ran across a corner and run into something that knocked them all back. When they came to it, they see that they rammed into the first thief with Ruggedo, Bulba, Myotismon, Hunter J, Splatter Phoenix, Demidevimon, Makuramon, and their gang with them)*

Ruggedo and Demidevimon: (Noticing the group with his gang) You again?!

Stellaluna and Meowzie: We could say the same thing about you!

Bulba: We knew we'd find you!

Splatter Phoenix: Get them, Stellaluna, and Meowzie!

Hunter J: Especially their new dumb guys!

Myotismon: You heard them!

Makuramon: Like they said!

*(The thieves, after Myotismon turned into Malomyotismon, advance on the groups who backed away. The villains attacked but the heroes, and Meowth's group got away in the nick of time. Darkwing and Gizmoduck ducked some of the thieves' attacks as they used Darkwing's sword and Gizmoduck's armor knives on his gauntlets to knock a bunch of barrels onto and the second thief knocking them down. The third thief tries to hit Tai's group and the rest of Darkwing's group, but they dodged and Morgana, along with Stellaluna, Meowzie, and the Digimon, fires a fireball and/or magic attacks at him. The third thief dodged which results in the attack knocking down the first thief. He got up, and then smirks evilly at the concerned Stellaluna and Meowzie and grabs them both before they ran)*

First thief: (Getting out a sword) Gotcha!

*(Fidget and Meowth ran in between them, forcing the first thief to release his grip on Stellaluna and Meowzie)*

Meowth: Hey, hey, whoa!

Fidget: Back off from them!

Jessie and James: (Joining up with Meowth and Fidget) Leave them alone!

*(Noticing this, Ash's group got calmly surprised)*

Gizmoduck: (Surprised) Fidget and Team Rocket?

Crunch: (Surprised) Are they helping them?

Aku-Aku: (Surprised, answering Crunch's question) Looks like it.

*(Then the first thief punches Meowth's group aside, knocking them into a watermelon stand, causing a broken wood shard to cut both Fidget's right hand and Meowth's left shoulder)*

First thief: (To Meowth's group) This is none of your business! *(To Sora's group)* And you are dead meat!

Splatter Phoenix: (Grabbing Meowzie) And you *are* coming with us again!

Hunter J: (Grabbing Stellaluna) Whether you like it or not!

Malomyotismon: (Agreeing) Come!

Meowzie: Let go of us!

Stellaluna: HELP!!

*(Meowth's group recovered and Fidget pulled a watermelon off of his head and removes the seeds. Meowth's group got shocked upon seeing Stellaluna and Meowzie in danger and Sora's group cornered by the thieves sword point, as well as Bulba aiming his flamethrower's nozzle at them. Then Meowth and Fidget got angrily determined)*

Meowth: Okay!

Fidget: This is the last straw!

Meowth and Fidget: They messed with the wrong, SCRATCHING CAT POKEMON AND BAT!!!!

*(Meowth screams a battle cry as he and Fidget charged and respectively scratched and kicked at Ruggedo, Malomyotismon, Demidevimon, Makuramon, Hunter J, and Splatter Phoenix, making the two latters release Stellaluna and Meowzie. Then the non-powered members of Meowth's group snatched the thieves' swords away and aimed them at the recovering Ruggedo, Malomyotismon, Hunter J, Splatter Phoenix, Demidevimon, and Makuramon, who got surprised. Then they, except Malomyotismon who just prepared his claws, pulled their swords and Demi Dart out)*

Ruggedo: You really think you're gonna mess with us?

Splatter Phoenix: Then fine.

Hunter J: It's your funeral.

Malomyotismon, Demidevimon, and Makuramon: What do you think of that?!

Meowth's group: We'll see about that!

*(Then they dueled while the powered members of Meowth's group used their magic techniques. Calmly surprised at first at Meowth's group's brave fighting skills, Ash's group and even Stellaluna and Meowzie softened up a bit towards Meowth's group. Then as Meowth's group locked blades with Demidevimon and the five evil leaders, the villains were pushing Meowth's group down as they struggled to push them away. Then, to their surprise, Ash's group used their Keyblades and swords to help Meowth's group push the swords' blades back. Then working together upon Meowth's group snapping out of their surprised looks, Meowth and Ash's groups shoved a powerful gust blast from the Keyblades at Ruggedo, Malomyotismon, Hunter J, Splatter Phoenix, Demidevimon, Makuramon, and the thieves, knocking them back. They suddenly noticed Bulba's absent)*

Palmon: Wait a minute!

Patamon: Where's Bulba?

Bulba: (Voice-over) Looking for me?

*(They turned and saw Bulba aiming his flamethrower at them, preparing to blast them with some flames)*

Bulba: Would you all, except Stellaluna and Meowzie, like to be original recipe or extra crispy?

*(Noticing the flamethrower pack hanging on Bulba's back like a backpack, Ash and Meowth's group smiled smugly)*

Ash's group: (Smugly) Well....

Meowth, Meowzie, and Megavolt: (Smugly) How about both?

Pikachu: (Smugly agreeing) Pikachu.

Quackerjack: (Picking Meowth and Meowzie up, which they let him) It's playtime!

*(Then Meowth and Meowzie, with Quackerjack's acrobatic catapult skills' help, lunged at Bulba's face, catching him by surprise, and with their Fury Swipes, scratched over Bulba's right eye, making him scream a bit in pain. With that distraction for Bulba after Meowth and Meowzie jumped back to Ash and Meowth's groups, Pikachu, Megavolt, and Tentomon then used their electric abilities and Super Shocker attack to shock Bulba, right on his flamethrower pack)*

Pikachu and Tentomon: (While shocking Bulba with Megavolt's help) Chu! (Super Shocker!)

*(Then the electric shock and Super Shocker attacks ended when the flamethrower exploded on Bulba, injuring him in the process by badly burning his arms underneath his half damaged sleeves and his right side bull horn broken off. Shocked at Bulba being injured, Ruggedo's gang got really livid along with even Bulba, who recovered in anger and pain)*

Bulba: (In pain) You little pests...!

*(He groans a bit in pain when Ruggedo's group rushed up to his aid. Suddenly, Quackerjack and Palmon both lassoed Ruggedo's group with Quackerjack's jumprope and Palmon's Poison Ivy attack, much to Bulba's pain)*

Quackerjack: Playtime's over!

Palmon: (Agreeing) Yeah! Poison Ivy!

*(Then she and Quackerjack spun Ruggedo's group around with their jumprope and Poison Ivy attack, untying them and sending them flying into the air towards Ruggedo's gang and that gave the villains a big toss, sending them colliding into an egg cart on wheels owned by a shocked eggkeeper, making Malomyotismon change back into Myotismon. Then Meowth's group threw the swords bladepoint at the cart's edge)*

Fidget and Meowth: See how you like that!

*(They, Jessie, James, and even Tai's group, Matt, Gabumon, TK, Patamon, and the Fearsome Four blew raspberries at them)*

Eggkeeper: (Shocked) My eggs! You ruined my eggs! Who's going to pay for them now?!

Ruggedo: Oh why don't you go away?!

Makuramon: Yeah, pipe down!

Bulba: (Angrily in pain) Mind your business...!

Eggkeeper: (Ignoring Ruggedo, Makuramon, and Bulba) Guards! Guards!

*(The villains looked up and got calmly alarmed as Don Karnage, Mad Dog, Dumptruck, Gibber, and Don Karnage's crew themselves approached)*

Don Karnage: What is the trouble here this time?

*(Then he and his crew guards noticed Ruggedo's gang and got determined)*

Thief 2: (Chuckling nervously a bit) Uh, mercy?

Don Karnage: (Getting his sword out) Sorry. My crew and I are not completely stupid and simple-minded like you felons, yes, no?

Mad Dog: Now, are you gonna surrender and come quietly?

Dumptruck: Or do you want to be punished?

Mad Dog: The latter choice ain't gonna be pretty if you choose that.

*(A short pause, then Myotismon, Hunter J, and Splatter Phoenix, who got determined, quickly grabbed the horse's reins to get it going. The horse ran off pulling the cart with Ruggedo, Demidevimon, Makuramon, the injured Bulba, and their gang still in it, making their escape)*

Don Karnage: After them!

*(Don Karnage, his crew, and the eggkeeper chased after them. Once the danger has passed, Ash's group looked at Meowth's group in amazement)*

Ash's group: Incredible....

Tombo: One minute you were our enemy.

Gizmoduck: And the next thing, you helped us.

Darkwing's group: Why?

Meowth: We told you already, we lost our special dear ones when we were little.

Fidget: And then forced to work for Merlock's group in a abusive life kind of way.

Morgana: And what are these "Special ones" you talking about, pray tell?

Palmon: Out of curiosity?

*(Meowth's group hesitated, but didn't explain)*

Meowth's group: Nothing, really.

James: Maybe we'll explain about it later.

*(Stellaluna and Meowzie approached Fidget and Meowth with calm looks of gratitude, making Meowth and Fidget blush)*

Meowth: Oh, um....

Fidget: Hey....

Jessie: (Giggles a bit) Saw your blushes, Casanovas.

Meowth and Fidget: (Through gritted teeth) Ix-nay...!

Meowzie: My sister, new friends, and I are so grateful to you for rescuing us.

Stellaluna: Especially me and my sister here.

*(Meowth and Fidget snapped out of their blushing and smiled bashfully)*

Meowth: Oh, it was nothing to it.

Fidget: Just call it luck.

*(Then they both got confused)*

Meowth and Fidget: Wait, twin sisters?

Stellaluna and Meowzie: (Nods) Yes.

*(Then Meowzie and Stellaluna gasped)*

Meowth and Fidget: What?

Stellaluna: You're both hurt!

Meowzie: Look at yourselves!

Meowth and Fidget: (Confused) Huh?

*(They and the groups then finally noticed what Stellaluna and Meowzie gasped at; Meowth's cut left shoulder and Fidget's cut right hand. They held their own injuries gently)*

Fidget: Meowth and I must've cut ourselves during the ambush.

Meowth: But it's nothing. My group and I've been through worse scrapes and cuts like this.

Meowzie: Don't say things like that in happiness.

James: She has a point.

Stellaluna: Now, hold still.

*(Then she and Meowzie gently removed Fidget's left hand and Meowth's paw-like hand from their own cuts and placed their hands and paw-like hands on those respective wounds gently)*

Meowth: (Confused) What're you...?

Fidget: (Confused) Why are...?

*(Stellaluna and Meowzie gently shushed them. Meowth's group looked at Ash's group in confusion, and they nod calmly with calm smiles, for they obviously could tell that Meowzie and Stellaluna are gonna help. Then sure enough, Stellaluna and Meowzie sang their hearts out)*

Stellaluna and Meowzie: **Flower, gleam and glow**

**Let your power shine**

**Make the clock reverse**

**Bring back what once was mine**

*(They both glowed a golden light from their own bodies from something glowing beneath Meowzie's fur and Stellaluna's shirt's neck rim, surprising Meowth's group, as the two girls continued)*

Stellaluna and Meowzie: **Heal what has been hurt**

**Change the Fates' design**

**Save what has been lost**

**Bring back what once was mine**

**What once was mine**

*(The song over, they both stopped glowing and then removed their hands and paw-like hands from Fidget's right hand and Meowth's left shoulder respectively, revealing that the cuts have been healed, surprising Meowth's group)*

Fidget: (Calmly amazed) Wow....

*(Then a scream began to slowly build up in Meowth as fear slowly enveloped his face. Then just when he screamed....)*

Meowzie: Don't scream!

Stellaluna: Please!

Morgana: It's just a healing spell!

Launchpad: Relax!

*(Catching himself, Meowth tried to make an excuse nervously)*

Meowth: (Nervously) I-I-I wasn't gonna scream! I was gonna say "Wow" loudly!

*(He chuckles nervously a bit, but the groups flatly glared, not buying it. Then Meowth sighed, getting the looks and confessed)*

Meowth: Okay, I was gonna scream. *(Looks at his healed left shoulder)* But honestly, my group and I never saw a healing spell like this before.

Fidget: (Looking at his healed right hand, impressed) I'll say.

*(Meowth's group looked at Stellaluna and Meowzie with curiosity)*

James: Where did you both get that kind of power?

Jessie: It looked like it came from a rare type of magic flower from another land called the Golden Flower.

*(Stellaluna and Meowzie revealed a gold pendant of their own by pulling each of them out of Meowzie's fur's neck rim and Stellaluna's shirt's neck rim)*

Meowzie: Stellaluna and I were born with them.

Stellaluna: And these pendants actually give us the power whenever we sing that incantation.

Meowzie: It even helps us both with other spells we can make.

Stellaluna: Such as blasting elemental blasts like fire, ice, you name them.

Meowth's group: Wow.

Tai: Is that why Myotismon, Hunter J, Splatter Phoenix, and those creeps were after you, like Volteer's group told us?

Stellaluna and Meowzie: Yes.

Meowzie: They consider us Myotismon, Hunter J, and Splatter Phoenix's fountains of youth for selfish reasons.

Stellaluna: Heck, that was why we were kidnapped by them a year ago.

Meowzie: And most recently, yesterday.

Meowth: A year ago?

Meowzie: Uh-huh.

Fidget: You mean...?

Stellaluna: Yes.

James: What happened?

Meowzie: Like Stellaluna and I pointed out before, when we were little, we were abandoned by our parents as a young bat and kitten.

Stellaluna: Yet we never knew why they did that.

*(Meowzie and Stellaluna tucked their own pendants in Meowzie's fur and Stellaluna's shirt's neck rim again)*

Stellaluna: Anyway, a year ago, Meowzie and I were doing fine on our own, taking care of ourselves, hoping to one day solve the mystery of our abandonment and reunite with our parents, which we believe to still be alive.

Meowzie: When Myotismon, Hunter J, Splatter Phoenix, Ruggedo, Makuramon, Bulba, and Demidevimon came and kidnapped us. We were forced to keep Myotismon, Hunter J, and Splatter Phoenix young and beautiful forever with our healing spells.

Stellaluna: And then a week ago, we both escaped and that was why we were hiding in the outskirts of Agrabah, to avoid falling into their hands again.

Meowzie: And then come yesterday, as the Sultan's group told Ash's group already, we were kidnapped again when they found us, but thankfully....

*(They looked at Ash's group with a soft smile, and they understood)*

Ash's group: Got rescued by us.

Stellaluna and Meowzie: (Nods with a smile) Exactly.

*(Impressed by Stellaluna and Meowzie's backstory, Meowth and Fidget smiled with Jessie and James and spoke up)*

Meowth: Wow.

Fidget: And I thought *our* lives were rough.

Launchpad: You told your backstory really well.

Darkwing: And with such spirit, as well.

Stellaluna and Meowzie: Thanks.

*(They then turned to Meowth's group)*

Meowzie: (To Meowth) And your name, again, is...?

Meowth: It's just Meowth. What about you?

Meowzie: Mine's Meowzie.

Meowth: Wow. Meowzie. That's a beautiful name.

*(Meowzie smiled at the compliment. Then Stellaluna turned to Fidget)*

Stellaluna: (To Fidget) And you?

Fidget: It's Fidget.

Stellaluna: (Impressed with a soft smile) Fidget, huh? Not a bad name.

Fidget: Thanks. And what's your name?

Stellaluna: Stellaluna.

Fidget: (Impressed with a soft smile) Stellaluna, eh? Even your beauty matches your name well besides Meowzie's.

*(Stellaluna, like Meowzie, also smiled at the compliment)*

Meowzie: I have to admit, Meowth, that your Fury Swipes on Bulba's was really great besides mine.

Meowth: Ditto on your Fury Swipes and mine.

*(Then they changed the subject)*

Ash: Anyway, you, Meowth's group, said you want to prove yourselves redeemed, right?

Meowth: More than anything in the world.

Fidget: I mean, we just did a moment ago, and....

*(Understanding Meowth's group's decision, Ash's group, Stellaluna, and Meowzie gave in)*

Ash's group: Okay.

Darkwing: We'll let you stay at the palace again.

Gizmoduck: Just like before.

Morgana: It may take a while to get used to you, but....

Meowth's group: But what?

Morgana: You just gotta hide until we tell the others at the right time.

Jessie: What does that mean?

Ash: What Morgana means is that until we tell the others to accept you....

Honker: You just gotta stay hidden in a hidden cage in the garden.

Gosalyn: Until that right time comes.

Meowth's group: (Unaware of what Ash, Honker, and Gosalyn said at first) Oh, that's nice. we can try....

*(Suddenly their eyes widened in shock and realization on what Ash, Honker, and Gosalyn just said)*

Meowth's group: What?!

*(Later, they wind up locked in a revealed hidden cage back at the palace in the garden. They are still horrified on what Ash, Honker, and Gosalyn just said. Ash puts the key in Megavolt's hand as he speaks up)*

Ash: Don't worry, we'll make sure to prove your worthiness.

Tombo: Believe us, we did that by telling the truth that we're not prince brothers, especially saving the kingdom.

Joe: I'm sure Volteer's group will accept you once they cool down if they see you.

Mimi: Especially Serena's group.

*(Meowth's group calms down)*

Meowth's group: Okay.

Jessie: We're counting on you, guys.

Fidget: Just don't forget.

*(They looked at Stellaluna and Meowzie)*

Meowth: Listen, Meowzie, if we are gonna win the others over, be sure to prove our worthiness *and* sincerity with your magic.

Fidget: Along with your magic, Stellaluna.

James: As well as explanations.

Stellaluna and Meowzie: (Nods) Of course.

*(Then with that, Ash pushed a button on a nearby pedestal and the cage lowered down beneath the garden's trapdoor. Then the trapdoor closed, completely hiding Meowth's group's cage)*

Ash: Now, we just need to make sure that Serena's group doesn't see Meowth's group until we got them prepared.

Serena's group: (Voice-over) Prepare for what?

*(Ash's group gasped and looked nervous. Then Serena's group arrived, wearing the same clothes they wore at the Harvest Festival and on the day Merlock's group took over and when Ash's group told them the truth about not being prince brothers. And with them are Biyomon, Jiji, Lillipup, Polar, Pura, and Baby T)*

Tombo: Uh.... To notice the stain Matt got on the new shirt you got him.

Matt: Yeah.

Gabumon: That's right.

Pikachu: (Agreeing happily) Pika!

Sora: (Looking) I don't see a stain.

Mimi: See?

Launchpad: No problem!

Tombo: Come on.

Joe: Let's get going to dinner.

*(Serena's group got suspicious and confused)*

Kiki: But it's a little early for dinner now.

Serena: Guys, what's the matter?

Ash: (Nervously) Oh, nothing, nothing! Everything's okay!

Sora: (Playfully) You aren't trying to hide anything from me and my cousins, huh?

Kiki: (Playfully) Anymore secrets?

Biyomon: You remember how...?

Matt: (Chuckling nervously a bit) Secrets? *(Normally)* No way!

Tombo: We almost lost you that way once.

Ash: We're not letting that happened again.

Biyomon: (Relieved) Well, that's a relief.

Jiji: (Agreeing in relief) It's good that you understand *and* remember.

*(Ash and Serena's groups smiled at each other as they lean in to kiss each other. Suddenly the ground begins to shake)*

Group: What?

Joe: (Confused) An earthquake?

*(Then the fountain nearby begins to fire up water which begins to twisted around like a tornado. The others looked as something popped out. It is two familiar male bandicoots and a familiar boy duck riding on a surfboard, happily wearing sandals, blue shorts, Hawaiian flowered shirts, and sunglasses. It's Crash and Sombra Bandicoot and Genie "Gene." And with them are Tawna and Coco Bandicoot, Scrooge McDuck, Huey, Dewey, Louie, Webigail "Webby" Vanderquack, and four familiar bandicoot children. They are Mohawk, Sabrina, Luz, and Lisa Bandicoot, and Crash's group's obviously back from their vacation bringing their luggages)*

Crash: Yee-haw!

*(They jumped off his board and lands in front of the group)*

Crash: He's cool, he's magical, he's back!!!!

Tawna: Along with us!

Mohawk and Luz: Yeah!

Sabrina and Lisa: You got that right!

Ash's group: (Happily) Crash, guys!

Serena's group: You're back home!

*(The group hugs Crash who suddenly begins to turn red and not because of blushing)*

Crash: Yeow! WATCH THE SUNBURN!!

*(The others let go, startled. Crash smiled as he turns back to normal)*

Crash: (Laughs a bit) Kidding! I wore sun lotion mostly.

Scrooge: Aye, and it's great to be home at last!

Sombra: So did anyone here miss us?

Gene: Be honest.

Group: We did.

Mimi: (Looking at Mohawk, Sabrina, Luz, and Lisa) And who are these cuties?

*(Realizing, Crash's group introduced them)*

Crash: These are mine and Tawna and Sombra and Coco's kids.

Tawna: That's right.

Bushroot: You had kids?

Pikachu: (Amazed) Pika?

Crash: Yep.

Sombra: Courtesy of mine and Crash's magic.

Megavolt: That's cool!

Quackerjack: I like kids!

Liquidator: That is true. Anyway, what are their names and which are your own kids?

Crash: Glad you asked, Licky.

Tawna: This is mine and Crash's son and daughter, Mohawk and Sabrina Bandicoot.

Group: Mohawk and Sabrina?

Crash: We came up with those names.

Mohawk: (Nods) Yep!

Sabrina: (Nods with Mohawk) Nothing to be ashamed of of our names.

Sombra: And this is mine and Coco's son and daughter, Luz and Lisa Bandicoot.

Coco: Yep-er-rooney!

Tai: (Confused) Lisa's a good name, but "Luz?"

Luz: My name means "Light" in Spanish.

Sombra: Like my name means "Shadow."

Tai: (Getting it) Oh, I get it!

Izzy: (Agreeing) Light and shadow.

Crash's group: Exactly!

Webby: The name "Lisa" came from my idea.

Huey: And me and my brothers picked "Luz" for him.

Dewey and Louie: Yeah.

Scrooge: That is true, and those four bairns are well-behaved.

Mohawk, Sabrina, Luz, and Lisa: (Proudly) Yep!

Gene: Anyway, take care of these, my fine man.

*(Gene then handed his luggage to Joe, Gomamon, and Patamon. The weight of them was too much for the three who succeed to fall to the ground, their faces covered by some of them)*

Joe, Gomamon, and Patamon: (Muffled) Ouch.

Gene: Sorry. Should've told you that they were heavy. *(Laughing a bit)* But guess what?

Crash: My family, friends, and I brought home souvenirs!

Scrooge: From all over the world!

*(Crash's group then puts a sombrero on Tombo's head, gives a huge teddy bear to Serena's group, and puts a baseball cap on Izzy's head, a little flag in Quackerjack's hand, and a hot dog on a bun in Megavolt's hand. And the others got little action figures, Launchpad got an action figure of a Hawaiian girl doing the hula)*

Launchpad: Thanks, Crash, guys! It even dances.

Meowzie: This is incredible.

Stellaluna: Indeed!

*(Crash's group noticed Stellaluna and Meowzie and Crash and Sombra kissed their hand and paw-like hand politely, making Tawna and Coco giggle a bit, for they both know Crash and Sombra love each of them and they are just being polite to Stellaluna and Meowzie)*

Sombra: *Enchante*, *madame*.

Crash: What're your names?

Stellaluna: Stellaluna.

Meowzie: Meowzie.

Tawna: (To Stellaluna and Meowzie) Pretty names.

Scrooge: (To the group) Where did they come from?

*(Later, all of Stellaluna and Meowzie's backstory was revealed)*

Crash: (Imitating a psychiatrist) I see. Now you're free because of them?

Group: Yep.

Ash: And about you and your group's experience, Crash, you saw the whole world in a week already?

Coco: (To Ash) That's right.

Crash: (To Crash) Right, dear?

*(Crash then splits into five little Crashes, each dressed from a certain Disneyland and Walt Disney World ride)*

Mini Crashes: **It’s a small world after all**

*(Crash then changed back to normal)*

Crash: But there is one thing Agrabah has that nowhere in the world does.

*(The non-serious male bandicoot then turns into an orange rocket, lights himself, and blasted around the whole place)*

Crash: (Happily) You guys!

Tawna, Coco, and Scrooge's group: Care to explain away?

Crash, Sombra, and Gene: Gladly!

*(Crash, Sombra, and Gene then began to sing about their and Crash's group's trip, as we see scenes from the places they visited appeared in the background)*

Sombra: **We parachuted down**

**Into the Taj Mahal**

Crash: (Imitating a Chinese man) **We've rollerbladed**

**Along the great Great Wall**

Gene: (mitating an Italian man) **We even made the famous**

**Leaning Tower fall**

Crash: **But who was with me and my group through it all?**

Crash, Sombra, and Gene: **Nobody**

Sombra: (Imitating a Russian man) **The Moscow Circus**

**Hired us to fly trapeze**

Gene: (Imitating a Greek man) **On Mount Olympus**

**Ran a race with Hercules**

Crash: **It's easy when you're chased by killer bees**

**Who said "Geshundheit" when I sneezed?**

*(He sneezed)*

Crash: **So now we're home**

Gene: **Home again with you**

Sombra: **You chase the clouds away**

Crash, Sombra, and Gene: **Whenever we are blue**

Ash: (Laughing a bit) You're never blue.

Crash: (Imitating an Egyptian man) **Not in the pyramids**

**We highly recommend**

Crash, Sombra, and Gene: **There is nothing in the world**

**Quite like a friend**

Gene: (Imitating an Asian man) **Slept like a babe in Bombay**

**On a bed of nails**

Crash: (Imitating a Moroccan man) **Moroccans set our fairy tales**

**Of seven veils**

Sombra: (Imitating a sailor) **We single-handedly**

**Even saved the whales**

Crash: **Yet no one was there to hear our tales**

*(Crash cries a bit then resumes singing happily with Sombra and Gene)*

Crash: (Imitating a Mexican man) **In Acapulco**

**We joined a Mariachi band**

Gene: (Imitating a crusty sailor) **We rode the ragin' rapids**

**Down the Rio Grande**

Crash: (In a helium voice) **Flew in a air balloon**

**But when we tried to land**

Sombra: **Nobody laughed**

**Or lent a hand**

Gene: (Imitating a river spirit) **Without you, the Amazon is**

**Just a trickle**

Sombra: (Imitating Peter O'Toole as Lawrence of Arabia) **Without you, the Sahara's**

**Not so hot**

Crash: (Imitating a Canadian man) **Without you, Niagara Falls**

**Is just a leaky faucet**

Gene: **And the Huey II**

**Is just some yacht**

Crash: **Now that we're home**

Sombra: **Home again, it's clear**

Gene: **All we ever wanted**

**Seems to be right here**

Crash: **We'd traveled East**

Sombra: **And West**

*(Crash, Sombra, and Gene then turned into a barbershop trio resembling east and west)*

Crash, Sombra, and Gene: **And now, we're back again (Again) (Again)**

*(Then they changed back to normal)*

Crash, Sombra, and Gene: **And there's nothing in the world**

Tawna, Coco, and Scrooge's group: **Quite like a friend....**

Males: **There’s nothing in the world**

Females: **Nothing in the whole wide world**

Group: **There’s nothing in the world**

**Quite like a friend**

*(The group concluded the song as we zoom away from the palace to Earth in space. Then Crash appeared next to Earth and spins it on a fingertip)*

Crash: **Nothing in the whole wide world**

*(The song over, Ash changed the subject, with nighttime now here)*

Ash: So Crash. How is freedom treating you, Sombra, and Gene?

Sombra: To be honest.... WE LOVE IT!!

Gene: Definitely felt good to get out and do things we never could when we were formally genies!

Crash: Like this, for example!

*(Crash jumps up and down happily, but then yelps as he breaks his back before landing back onto the ground)*

Crash: Okay, maybe our powers aren't great as they used to be.

*(Crash shrunk down to small size)*

Crash: (In a high-pitched voice) But don't sell me short.

*(He grew back to his normal size)*

Crash: Sombra, Gene, and I may be out of the lamp, but we still have some magic in us.

Sombra: The only magic we no longer have is granting wishes.

Gene: That's the best part.

*(Crash transformed into a magician with a smile)*

Crash: Yep, the bandicoots and boy duck can still do it.

*(Crash made a shark appear on his hand. The shark, however, grabs his face with his teeth and chomps it off, concerning Sombra, Tawna, Coco, and Scrooge and making Gene, Mohawk, Sabrina, Luz, Lisa, Huey, Dewey, Louie, and Webby giggle at first until Sombra, Tawna, Coco, and Scrooge sternly glared at them, making them stop sheepishly. Crash yelped as he reached into the shark's mouth and puts his face back on before getting rid of the shark)*

Crash: (Sheepishly) Hate to lose a face like that. One more chance!

*(Crash made a box appear in front of them and a saw in his hand)*

Crash: (Hopefully) Who wants to go first? *(Giggles a bit)* I am great at this!

Stegmutt: Well, as much as we wanted to help and all.

Tombo: I'm afraid we got to go now.

Kiki: It's dinnertime.

Crash's group: (Curiously) "Dinnertime?"

Scrooge: (Realizing) Aye, that's right! It's already suppertime.

Crash: (Glumly) Oh, I see. You want a romantic dinner for the three couples.

Gene: (Glumly) I guess you don't need three magical animals and their families and friends around to mess things up.

Crash's group: (Feeling sorry) Crash, Gene.... (Dad, Gene....) (Uncle Crash, Gene....)

Group: (Feeling sorry) Listen....

Gene: (Turning away) No, no. Just go on.

Crash: (Agreeing with his back turned) Three's a crowd after all. You go on and have some fun.

*(The group smiled as Serena approached Crash and Gene, who are still unhappy)*

Serena: Crash, Gene, we would be honored if you and your families and friends joined us for dinner.

Scrooge: Since you, Gene, are, after all, my adoptive nephew.

*(Crash and Gene then smiled happily as they turned back)*

Crash and Gene: (Hopefully) You would?

*(The group nods)*

Tawna: Serena is, after all, my care, alongside Kiki and Sora.

Crash: (Happily) All right! Let's go in there and chow down!

Gene, Huey, Dewey, Louie, Webby, Mohawk, Sabrina, Luz, and Lisa: Yay!

*(Crash hugs the group as he ran to the palace)*

Crash: Cooking's me and my friends' treat!

Sombra: Especially on a good hibachi grill!

*(The whole group headed for the palace. Well, almost. Ash and Tai's groups stop the Fearsome Four, Pikachu, Eevee, Gabumon, and Patamon before the eight could go in)*

Ash: Gabumon, you, along with Pikachu, Eevee, Patamon, and the Fearsome Four, have to stay out here and do your job.

Megavolt: (Annoyed) Aw, geez. What?

Patamon: (Confused) What job, Ash?

Ash: Remember?

Matt: You got to guard Meowth's group.

Tombo: Make sure no one sees them until we tell the others, got it?

Tai's group: Please?

*(Megavolt frowned in annoyance while Gabumon, Patamon, Pikachu, Eevee, Quackerjack, Bushroot, and Liquidator realized and saluted in confidence)*

Quackerjack, Bushroot, Gabumon, and Patamon: (Saluting) Have no fear!

Liquidator: (Saluting) Are you worried about being busted at the wrong timing? Do you give anything to set the motion forward the right way? Then turn to us!

Pikachu: (Happily saluting) Pikachu!

Megavolt: (Saluting flatly) Yeah, count on us while we skip dinner.

Agumon: No worries, my Digimon friends and I can bring some food to you.

Quackerjack: You heard Agumon, so relax, Sparky.

Megavolt: (Angrily) Don't call me "Sparky!"

*(Then he, Quackerjack, Bushroot, Liquidator, Pikachu, Eevee, Gabumon, and Patamon go back to guard Meowth's group's hidden cage. As Ash and Tai's groups turned and headed to the palace, they looked concerned about something. Crash, Sombra, Gene, and Tawna appeared in front of them)*

Crash: Giddy-up, Ash, guys!

Tawna: What's keeping you?

Sombra: Forgot something out here?

Ash: Well, no, it's nothing. *(A short pause)* Maybe something. *(Pushes Crash, Sombra, Gene, and Tawna ahead gently)* Me and Tai's groups and I'll tell you later.

Matt, Tombo, and Tai's group: (Agreeing) Yeah.

*(Then with that, they headed in to have dinner, and await what Volteer's group has to announce about Ash's group)*

***Coming up: Ruggedo, Myotismon, Hunter J, Splatter Phoenix, Demidevimon, Makuramon, and the now half anthro bull, half cyborg-turned Bulba finds Merlock's group's black lamp and unleashed them and their henchmen finally, making Ruggedo Merlock and Vanitas' master. Then realizing they have the same revenge mission against the heroes, they decide to team up. Back in the palace, dinner was going well, until Fidget and Team Rocket are discovered. And will the group who accepted Fidget and Team Rocket convince the others to give them a chance? Only time will tell.***
