Lord of the Cartoons
Prologue
"Look guys!" Cosmo said excitedly, floating above the bow of the S.S. Cartoons. "I'm king of the world!"
"Oh yeah!" Timmy challenged. The 10 year old boy stood on the bow with his godfather. He was trying to catch his balance.
"Well I'm prince of the world!"
"Oh yeah well…" Cosmo looked at his son, Poof.
"Poof is princess of the world!"
"Cosmo, Poof is a boy!" Timmy told him. "Princes are boys, princesses are girls! There's a big difference in the two!"
"What's the big difference?" Cosmo asked.
"It all depends on gender sweetie!" Wanda told her husband.
"Ok then, how about Poof is queen then!" Cosmo decided.
"Nope!" Timmy said stepping on the floor. "Poof has to be a girl, and a princess's mom for that to happen!"
"You may have a crown Cosmo." Timmy said. "But you still have no clue what royalty is!"
"I have more than that!" Cosmo explained. "I have a wand and wings too!" He showed Timmy his wand and his wings. Then he sighed.
"Gosh," he began. "All this royalty stuff is confusing me Timmy!" Wanda giggled a little, and then leaned on her husband.
"How about this then?" she suggested. "Timmy and Poof are princes, I am the queen, and you…:" She tickled her hubby's chin. "You are my brave and noble king."
"Ok, I'm good with that!" Cosmo said.
That's the sprit Cosmo!" Timmy encourged him.
"Poof, poof!" Poof added wiggleling his arms and legs.
"Can't you believe we're actually on a ship Patrick?" SpongeBob asked the chubby pink sea star.
"Nope!" Patrick answered. "I can not believe it SpongeBob!"
"This is soooo exciting!" SpongeBob said. "We can play sports, we can eat fancy meals, we can swim, and we can watch shows/movies,"
"And we can sleep!" Patrick added proudly.
"You can already sleep Patrick." Squidward reminded the starfish.
"Yeah I know!" he admitted. "But I never slept on a fancy ship before!"
"Well I'm gonna hit the hay a wile!" Sandy said. She ran towards the lawn chairs. "You boys have fun!"
"Bye Sandy!" SpongeBob and Patrick both waved goodbye to their descending friend.
"I'm going to go paint something!" Squidward heading towards the art center.
"Meanwhile I'm going to beg the captain to make this trip free. Wish me luck!" Mr. Krabs headed toward the captain quarters. After they wished him luck, SpongeBob turned to Patrick.
"What do you want to do Pat?" SpongeBob asked. "Play tennis?"
"Ok!" Patrick declared.
"Then, let's go!"
"Meow!" Gary slithered to watch them play. They passed by Grimer and Charmander who was playing table tennis.
"Now Stitch, this is a cruise ship!" Lilo told the alien. "So you have to behave!"
"Oga toga!" Stitch saluted.
"Good boy!"
"Ooh, this ship knows fashion!" With that, Pleakly put away his magazine, and then put on his shopping hat. "Well, I'm off to the shops!"
"Aloha Pleakly!" Lilo waved goodbye. Jumba and Stitch did the same. When Pleakly was gone, Jumba turned to Lilo.
"Come on, let's ditch the one eyed noodle!" Jumba told Lilo.
"Well ok! She agreed. She fallowed Jumba. "Come on Stitch!" Stitch went after them. "I sure hope Pleakly knows where we are!"
On the top deck, one of a toad was keeping watch. He looked into his binoculars. The sky up ahead didn't look too prominseing. The sky was all dark and gloomy looking, it began to rain a little, there was going to be a major storm soon!
"Oh my gosh!!" Toad said in shock. He quickly put away his binoculars, and ran to the captain's quarters.
"I got to tell the captain!"
When he got there, he knocked on Toadsworth door rapidly. When Toad was about to give up hope, the door opened, and Toad fell in.
Are you ok?" Waddle Doo asked, holding the door open.
""Yeah I'm ok!" Toad said on the floor, rubbing his cheek. "I just fell on my…" then Toad saw Toadsworth. Some Waddle Doos were in the middle of watching Toadsworth take his bath. A waddle Dee was trying to steel the ship with his short stubby hands. Toad stood up.
"Toadsworth!" He said. "You got to help! A storm is coming; we'll all parish if we don't do something!" Toadsworth looked at Toad like he was crazy, and burst out laughing.
"I'm serious!" Toad jumped and shouted. "The ship can't handle a storm, and we'll all die!"
"That's nonsense!" Toadsworth stopped laughing. A storm's not coming, besides this ship is unsinkable!"
"That's exactly what they said about the Titanic, and what happened? It hit an iceberg and sank, we'll all gonna die!!"
Yeah but unlike the Titanic, this is 2008, not 1959!"
"The ship sank in 1912 you crazy captain, we'll all gonna die!!" Toad was jumping madly and shouting.
"Don't lose your diapers!" Toad looked down at himself and gasped.
"This is not a diaper!" Toad shouted reputedly.
"Whatever!" Toadsworth took a sip from his tea, and looked at the grey clods from the port hole.
"Goodness gravy!" He shouted, spitting tea all over some Waddle Dees. They tried to shake the tea off their faces. "A storm's coming; the ship can't handle such conditions! We're all gonna die!" He looked at the wet Waddle Dees. "Well don't just stand there, the ship's in danger!"
All at once the Waddle Dees burst into life; some of them ran into each other! Toadsworth hopped out, put on a towel around his waist, and then scurried to the loudspeaker to make his speech.
"Attention passengers!" The mike boomed. All the cartoons were listening intently. "A mighty storm is soon approaching. If we don't get off this ship right now, we're all going to die!" The cartoons screamed and scurried to get ready to get on the safety boats. "If you don't make it out alive, then Bon Voyage!"
After Toadsworth's speech, he looked at Toad.
"Now what?" He asked.
"Get the safety boats and make sure everyone put on their life vests!"
"Right! I knew that!" Toadsworth pressed the safety boats button.
"Come on Kirby, the boat's going to sink!!" Tiff told Kirby, running with Kirby and her brother.
"Yeah, you don't want to die do you?" Tuff asked.
"Poyoh!" Kirby madly shook his head.
"Then we better hustle junior!" Tokkori told him, flying.
"Poyoh, poyoh!" They passed by Lilo, Stitch, and Jumba who just grabbed Pleakly and ran for cover.
"AHHHHHHHH!" Charmander screamed, while holding his tail, and running at top speed. "My tail's going to get wet; my tail's going to go out!"
"Look at the bright side Charmander!" Grimer comforted and ran with his friend. "At least we all are getting our exercise!"
"Hurry up Pichu!" Stinger called to Pichu, who had been playing in the bathroom for hours. "The ship is going to sink soon!"
"Just a mimute boss!" Pichu shouted to his boss. "I'll be out normetarlyly!"
"Well hurry up, this ship might go down any minute!"
"I'm hurrying!" Then Kirby and the gang ran past.
"What you waiting for?" Tokkori asked Stinger. "Can't you see this is no time to mess around buster?"
"I'm waiting for Pichu." Stinger said. "He's…"
"Never mind about him!" The bird told the scorpion. "Can't you see this is life or death we're running for? Come on, move it!" Before Stinger had a chance, Tokkori began to push him with his beak.
Pichu got out the bathroom, and looked around. Where was Stinger?
"Boss?" he called out, freighted. "Boss? I hate to be alome!" He wandered around looking for his boss.
"Come on Kirby, this way!" Tiff shouted. Kirby ran behind of Tuff, Tokkori, and Tiff.
"Poyoh?" Kirby stopped and looked around. He jumped up excitedly when he saw the buffet room. He couldn't resist all that food, and ran inside.
"Come on Chibi!" Telly told the running robot. "We got to move if we want to make it out alive!" Then Telly saw Kirby in the buffet.
"Be right back Chibi!" He flew to where Kirby was, who was eating the cake!
"It's ok honey, mommy's got you!" Wanda said as she held onto Poof. "It's just a little storm, so there's nothing to be scared of!"
"Poof?" Poof wondered what those grey clouds in the sky were, he didn't like them one bit.
"Poof!" He quietly slipped out of his mother's grasp when he felt a raindrop on his head. He looked around, and found the closet shelter he could find, with was the buffet. He went inside to get warm.
Pretty soon the buffet was filled with cartoons! Gary went in after he lost SpongeBob and friends, Larry Koopa went in to hide from his brothers and sister from hide and Seek, Odie went in for a nap, Goddard went in for a bone on the floor, Pichu came in to see if his boss was there, and Max came in to tell everybody to get out like Telly was.
"Poof, poof!" Poof was excited when he saw the food. He was so excited that he threw away his rattle!
"Where's Poof?" Wanda asked when they all got in the little boat. "Where's my baby? We can't leave without our baby!" She was about to fly off, when lighting flashed through the sky, Toadsworth lowered the enormous boat into the water, and they all saw the giant ship sink into the blue.
"Poof?" Meanwhile, Poof noticed that his rattle wasn't in his hand. He began to cry loudly.
"Don't cry without your rattle Poof!" Telly flew to cover Poof's mouth. "Remember, when you cry without you rattle; bad things happens! So let's go before we all…" Suddenly they felt a violent shake.
"Earthmaquake!" Pichu cried. Every cartoon went crazy, and ran around the room except Kirby, Telli, Max, and Poof. Kirby knew they were sinking, and began to suck up all the food!
"No Kirby, we might need those!" Max warned, but it was too late! Kirby has already sucked up all the food! Kirby looked and smiled.
"Poyoh!" He said, cheerfully.
Suddenly, water rushed into the buffet! Every cartoon screamed when the water came in. The ceiling began to crack. The boat began to shift, while stuff fell on the cartoons heads!
Then the water carried our heroes out of the room and into the sea!
