Opening song: Arabian Nights (Aladdin the Series)

The Big Switcheroo

*(The next morning in the palace, Tails and Cosmo have just finished making breakfast in the form of breakfast sandwiches. As soon as they finished, the residents came in, all awake now)*

Tails and Cosmo: Good morning, guys.

Residents: Morning, Tails, Princess.

*(They see the sandwiches and the non-serious members got excited)*

Launchpad: Oh, boy!

Vector: Chow time!

*(They seat and begin eating. Later, as everyone is cleaning up after themselves, Megavolt puts his sandwich, which is almost completely eaten, down on the table and helps Bushroot clean Spike's jaws with toothpaste-like fertilizer)*

Megavolt: Are you sure fertilizer is the perfect toothpaste for your pet flytrap?

Bushroot: Positive. It keeps his teeth clean and healthy. For a plant.

*(Spike pants happily in agreement like a dog. Noticing Megavolt's sandwich on the table, Quackerjack gave an interested hungry look. After looking around to see if anybody's watching, he then snuck over to the sandwich, planning on eating it. Suddenly, just when Megavolt was about to turn around to where his sandwich is upon finishing helping Bushroot clean Spike's teeth, Quackerjack, quickly thinking upon seeing him do that, shouted to distracted him)*

Quackerjack: You forgot your gloves!

*(Megavolt realized he's seemingly right, and went to find them. Quickly, Quackerjack grabbed the sandwich and gobbled it down. Unfortunately, everyone else, except Megavolt, saw him do it, and they shouted)*

Residents: Quackerjack!

*(Hearing them, Megavolt turned around after finishing putting his found gloves on and gasped in shock to find his sandwich gone, and Quackerjack shocked that he got busted, but Megavolt doesn't know it yet)*

Megavolt: (Frantically) My sandwich! Where is it?!

Doom: (Flatly pointing at Quackerjack) Ask him.

*(Hearing that tone from Doom, Megavolt looked at Quackerjack, who then tried to act innocent and play dumb)*

Quackerjack: I didn't know that was your sandwich.

*(He smiles sheepishly. Getting slowly angry, Megavolt stormed up to Quackerjack, much to his nervousness)*

Bugs: Uh-oh, busted.

Daffy: You got that right, long ears.

*(Once up to Quackerjack, Megavolt, calmly fuming with anger, seemingly eased down and then smiled smugly)*

Megavolt: (Smugly) Tell me, Quackie. Do you find it amusing to prank your own buddy?

Quackerjack: (Nervously) Prank?

Megavolt: (Smugly) You know, tell him something to distract him, so you can do something wrong behind his back?

Quackerjack: (Nervously) What distraction?

Megavolt: (Smugly) Oh, come on. You know what I mean.

*(Thinking Megavolt is seemingly forgiving, Quackerjack casted aside his nervousness and confessed. But the others, on the other hand, knew what Megavolt's up to and nervously didn't say a word, lest they would also provoke Megavolt)*

Quackerjack: Okay, yes, I did. It was just a simple prank.

*(A short pause, then Megavolt spoke up, looking smugly happy at first)*

Megavolt: Okay. A simple prank, indeed. And for the record....

*(He gets livid and zaps Quackerjack's rear roughly, knocking him down and screams at him)*

Megavolt: THAT IS THE LAST STRAW!!

*(Recovering, Quackerjack rubbed his rear)*

Quackerjack: (Winces) Can't you take a joke?

Megavolt: Those jokes aren't that funny! That's mean!

Quackerjack: I wasn't doing it to be mean, Sparky!

Megavolt: Call me "Sparky" one more time! I dare you!

Quackerjack: Oh, you dare! Sparky, Sparky, Sparky, Sparky, Sparky, Sparky!

*(Megavolt lunges at him and they broke into a fist fight until Sonic and Sally and even Launchpad broke the fight up, separating them)*

Sonic: Easy there!

Sally: Stop it!

Launchpad: Can't we just get along please?

Megavolt: (Struggling) Wait'll I get my hands on you!

Quackerjack: (Struggling) I like to see you try!

*(He snaps his toy chattering teeth at Megavolt's nose, ending the fight and making Sonic, Sally, and Launchpad release them. Megavolt yanks the chattering teeth off his nose, more livid that ever)*

Megavolt: I bet you would understand how *I* feel whenever you prank me, if *you* were in *my* shoes!

Quackerjack: Your shoes?! I would never wear your shoes if they were the last shoes on this earth!

Megavolt: It wouldn't hurt to try!

Quackerjack: Yeah, well...! Maybe you should know how I feel when you hurt someone's feelings, if *you* were in *my* shoes!

Megavolt: Oh, grow up! I would never wear your clown shoes!

*(Shocked with everyone else on what Megavolt snapped, Quackerjack gasps. Megavolt then almost walked away with Quackerjack threw a basketball at him, hitting the back of his head)*

Vector: (Imitating a basketball coach) Foul ball!

*(He blows a whistle)*

Quackerjack: (Ignoring Vector) Never make fun of my shoes, you loon!

*(Slowly turning around with his fists clenched, livid and fuming, Megavolt grabbed the basketball and threw it squarely into Quackerjack's face, hitting his beak where his nose is)*

Vector: (Imitating a basketball coach, blows whistle again) Foul ball again!

*(Recovering while rubbing his nose's location on his beak, Quackerjack glared at Megavolt, waiting to see what happens next)*

Megavolt: I may be a loon, but I'm proud of it! So laugh at this, I'm never talking to you again!

Quackerjack: (Agreeing sarcastically in anger) Oh, wouldn't dream about it more, Sparky!

*(Then they both got calmly shocked on what they just said to each other, while everyone else is watching this in calm shock. Then Megavolt and Quackerjack, calmly full of guilt, were just gonna storm off in separate directions to their rooms, when Cloud and Aerith came in, looking worried, ending the argument between Megavolt and Quackerjack)*

Cloud: Emergency! Break up the fight because Merlock's group is at a nearby underground laboratory.

Aerith: We need you to go see what they stole this time. All we know is that it's a new invention.

Lola: Are you sure?

Aerith: Definitely.

Cloud: You must go and stop whatever they're planning with that invention.

Darkwing: You can count on us, you're majesties!

Liquidator: (To Megavolt and Quackerjack) Well, we got a new mission. Come on!

Megavolt: (To Liquidator) Yeah. *(Gives a narrow bitter glare at Quackerjack)* If a certain toy-making bucktoothed jester doesn't sit next to me.

Quackerjack: (Agreeing with a narrow bitter glare at Megavolt) Perish the thought.

James: Now, now, you two! This is no time for fighting each other.

*(Realizing he's right, Megavolt and Quackerjack, still angry at each other, despite feeling guilty again, joined Sonic's group and their friends to find Merlock's group. Sure enough at the underground cavern, the heroes, except Doom and the Toon Patrol who stayed outside to wait for them, found the rest of Bugs' group hidden above a hanging hallway, watching Merlock's group preparing a machine of some kind, resembling a giant energy laser gun, apparently the stolen invention. They then prepare themselves)*

Panchito: (Whispering) Okay, guys. Get ready.

Donald: (Whispering) I was born ready.

Wile: (Whispering sarcastically) Sure you are.

Donald: (Whispering) I am!

*(Down on ground level, Merlock and Negaduck are rushing their goons into completing the construction lead by Electro)*

Merlock: Hurry up, you dolts.

*(Dijon and the Komodo Brothers try to lift the last piece of the machine with Drake's help, due to it being heavy)*

Joe: (Struggling) This thing is heavy, Boss!

Moe: (Struggling) I can't lift this!

Dijon: (Struggling) Even my frail little arms can't hold on much longer!

Electro: (Impatiently) Oh, quit your excuses! Either you push that last piece into the control system, or so help me, if you break it, I am gonna shock you so hard, you'll be coming up with another lame excuse for why you got shocked!

*(Then Dijon and the Komodo Brothers' strength gave out and accidentally dropped the piece onto Drake's foot)*

Drake: Ow!

*(He hops on his other foot as he held his hurt foot)*

Drake: (Angrily through gritted teeth) Why, you...!

*(The heroes snickered quietly at this. Then noticing each other snickering together, Megavolt and Quackerjack stopped and then after a brief staring contest with looks of contemplating guilt for their fight earlier, snapped out of it and resumed still being angry at each other. After their quiet snickering died down, Meowth whispered)*

Meowth: (Whispering) I bet he could be good at hopscotch.

*(Jessie and James quietly snickered a bit in agreement. Suddenly, Xandra accidentally knocks over a rock, and as soon as it landed on the ground, Merlock's group, with Drake recovering, heard it and turned around)*

Electro: (Hearing the rock) What was that?

*(They see the heroes)*

Negaduck: That blasted hedgehog and his team!

Merlock: (To his group) Get them!

*(The henchmen charged at the heroes)*

Penelope: Uh-oh. Trouble.

Daffy: (Sarcastically) Love how you grasp the situation.

*(Then the henchmen climbed towards them on both ladders on each side of the hallway platform)*

Tails: This is not working out the way we planned.

Sonic: (Shrugs) Oh well.

*(The heroes arm themselves as soon as the henchmen arrived)*

Puppetmon: (Giggles crazily a bit) Nowhere to run.

*(Seeing that the way down is by jumping over the railing, Marahute quickly scooped the heroes onto her back, dove down, and swept at the invention, letting the heroes off her back)*

Amy: Thanks, Marahute!

Milo: (To Merlock's group, mockingly) Come and get us!

Meowth: (To Merlock's group, agreeing) Unless you're too chicken! *(To Foghorn)* No offense.

Foghorn: (To Meowth) None taken.

*(Then the henchmen got their laser guns ready)*

Brer Fox: Y'all should've kept your mouths closed.

*(Then the henchmen proceeded to shoot at the heroes, but the heroes and even Merlock's group dodged)*

Felldrake: Watch where you’re shooting, you *idiotas*!

Poison Ivy: (To the henchmen, agreeing) Yeah, watch it!

*(Then Puppetmon, Hunch, Negaduck, and the Komodo Brothers aimed their laser guns at Lola)*

Puppetmon: Say "Bye-bye!"

Hunch: Annihilation time!

Komodo Brothers: Any last words?

*(Lola did some backward cartwheel flips, kicking Puppetmon, Hunch, and the Komodo Brothers down, not realizing she is heading for the invention)*

Negaduck: (Shocked) Oh no! She's heading for the device! *(Determined)* I must stop her!

*(Negaduck chased after Lola, not realizing he is heading for the invention as well. Quackerjack kicks Brer Fox down)*

Quackerjack: Playtime's over!

*(Suddenly, Brer Bear whacks Quackerjack right into Megavolt and the two tumbled over dizzied, near the invention)*

Brer Bear: Nobody messes with Brer Fox!

*(Once underneath the invention, Lola stopped her backward cartwheel flips and then noticed Negaduck approach her, his knife readied. Then she pulled her knife out and parried the swipes)*

Negaduck: Getting tired, doll?

Lola: "Doll?"

*(She punches him down)*

Lola: Don't ever call me "Doll!"

*(Noticing a lever nearby upon snapping out of his dizziness, Megavolt prepared to shoot his electric blast at it. Noticing, along with a recovered Negaduck, upon snapping out of his dizziness, Quackerjack tried to shout to Megavolt)*

Quackerjack: Wait, stop!

*(But too late; Megavolt blasted his electric blast, hitting the lever. Suddenly, the invention activated, and a powerful beam hits both Megavolt and Quackerjack, much to the heroes' shock. Then Megavolt and Quackerjack lost consciousness)*

Heroes: Megavolt, Quackerjack!

*(Then Brer Bear attempted to whack Knuckles down)*

Brer Bear: Your turn to have your head clean off!

*(But Knuckles outmaneuvered the attack and punched him right into the same lever, and the invention activated again, and this time, its beam hits both Lola and Negaduck, knocking them out as well, this time, much to the heroes and the villains' shock)*

Hunch: Negaduckie!

Heroes: Lola!

Brer Fox: (To Brer Bear) Good going, numskull! *(To Negaduck in concern while running up to him)* Negaduck!

Hydro Man: Let's get out of here!

*(The henchmen shot some debris down with their laser guns and jumped back to ground level safely on them. After that, they met up with Merlock and Dijon carried Negaduck’s unconscious body as they got away)*

Toby: Merlock’s group’s getting away.

Vanilla: Never mind Merlock’s group for now.

Jessie: We’ve gotta help Lola and the boys.

Milo: Aunt Jessie’s right.

*(Then they ran up to Lola, Megavolt, and Quackerjack’s unconscious bodies and Bugs, Darkwing, and Sonic picked Lola, Megavolt, and Quackerjack up respectively)*

Launchpad: Easy now.

*(Then both sides looked at each other with calm glares, then retreated in separate directions. With Merlock's group, they exited the cavern through the other side, arrived at their ship, and Brer Fox piloted it. The rest of the villains checked on Negaduck)*

Puppetmon: Wakey-wakey, Negaduckie.

*(He gently slaps Negaduck's face, making him groan a bit, slowly waking up)*

Puppetmon: (To Poison Ivy) Told ya a couple gentle slaps in the face can wake somebody.

Poison Ivy: Whatever.

*(Slowly awake now, Negaduck groaned a bit, rubbing his head. As soon as he finished, he spoke, as if he were Lola instead)*

Negaduck: (Talking like Lola) Wh-What happened? How did I arrive here?

Duke: Relax, Negs.

Merlock: We got away from Sonic's group and their foolish friends.

Dijon: Yeah. You lost consciousness, but we got you out with me carrying you.

*(Then Negaduck got confused and calmly shocked like Lola would)*

Negaduck: (Talking like Lola) “Negs?” What...?

Merlock: That’s what Dijon did.

Moe: Sure.

Joe: You’re Negaduck. Ain’t ya?

*(Hearing him as Puppetmon pulled a mirror out, Negaduck saw his reflection and as Lola would do, he calmly reacted in surprise. It turned out the invention back in the cave switched Lola’s mind from her body to Negaduck’s and Negaduck’s mind to Lola’s body, even on Megavolt and Quackerjack, and nobody knows it. Upon realizing, Negaduck/Lola then calmed down)*

Negaduck/Lola: Uh, it would appear that I am.

*(Hunch then hugged Negaduck/Lola happily, much to his/her surprise)*

Hunch: See? You are Negaduckie!

Negaduck/Lola: (Unsure) Oh, yes.

Poison Ivy: (Confused) I thought you hate being called "Negaduckie?"

*(Realizing, Negaduck/Lola got tough like Negaduck would)*

Negaduck/Lola: (Calmly realizing) Oh, yeah. *(Acting tough to Hunch, yanking him off)* Don't push your luck, punk! And don't call me "Negaduckie."

Poison Ivy: (Impressed) Much better.

Hunch: (Recovering casually, giggles a bit) Granted.

*(Once left alone, Negaduck/Lola got calmly worried secretly and got lost in thought)*

Lola: (Thinking, in Negaduck's body) So that invention they stole.... It was a mind-switching machine. But why would they want to steal it? What is their plan? I wonder if Bugs and even Sonic and the others can hopefully find out without me? Or maybe if they learn of Negaduck's mind being in my body from this experience?

*(Back with the heroes, they met up with Doom and the Toon Patrol and are on their way back at the palace on Marahute's back with the unconscious Lola, Megavolt, and Quackerjack in tow. They even just reported the incident to Doom and the Toon Patrol what happened)*

Doom: That electric-freak always does something reckless! Shoot first, ask questions later.

Bushroot: Take it easy, Judge. Megavolt's not always like that.

Liquidator: That would be false advertising rumors.

Doom: False advertising rumors, my foot!

*(Suddenly, they notice Lola slowly waking up, unaware that Negaduck's mind is in her body)*

Bugs: Lola?

Tails: Are you okay, Lola?

*(Once awake, Lola/Negaduck yanked herself/himself free roughly, calmly surprising our heroes)*

Lola/Negaduck: Of course I’m alright, you...!

*(She/He stopped)*

Lola/Negaduck: Wait, what?

Tails: Uh, we asked you if you're alright.

Lola/Negaduck: And why did you call me...?

Bugs: Don’t you remember?

Darkwing: Lola Bunny. That’s your name.

Launchpad: Did you forget?

(Thinking up an idea, Liquidator then pulled a mirror out)

Liquidator: Maybe the reflection test can help you remember.

*(Lola/Negaduck looks into the mirror and got calmly surprised upon finally seeing herself/himself in there)*

Lola/Negaduck: It appears I am Lola.

Heroes except Doom and Toon Patrol: See?

(Lola/Negaduck got nervous calmly)

Lola/Negaduck: Can I have a little privacy?

Knuckles: Sure.

Sonic: Take your time.

*(Lola/Negaduck turned went to a corner near Marahute's rear and became lost in thought)*

Negaduck: (Thinking, in Lola’s body) I’m in that ugly cutesy bunny’s body. The accident at the cave, some kind of neuron mind transfer, just like Merlock said upon stealing the invention.

*(Then Lola/Negaduck secretly smirked evilly)*

Negaduck: (Thinking, in Lola's body) No matter. Until I can find a way back to the invention to get my body back, I guess I'll just have to pretend to fit in.

*(Then she/he acted nice, pretending to be Lola and succeeding in fooling everyone)*

Lola/Negaduck: I’m fine, guys. I was a bit shaken up by the accident.

Sonic: Hey, no problem.

Cream: What matters is that you're alright.

Cheese: (Happily agreeing) Chao, chao.

Xandra: Now, all we have to do is wait for Megavolt and Quackerjack to wake up.

Smart Guy: Once back at the palace.

*(They looked at the unconscious Megavolt and Quackerjack. Seeing them like that, Lola/Negaduck, with no one looking, secretly smirked evilly, realizing immediately)*

Lola/Negaduck: (Whispering) Well....

*(Then she/he became lost in thought)*

Negaduck: (Thinking, in Lola's body) Seems like those two morons have been mind-switched as well. I bet they'll freak out upon waking up seeing themselves like that. But maybe.... I can actually not let those fools know that their minds have switched like mine and the girl bunny.

*(Then they resumed sitting around on Marahute's back, continuing their flight back to the palace)*

Commercial break

More to come soon....

To be continued....
