Hordes of Tomato Mutants
Crunch: So what's the battle plan?
Aku Aku: Here's the battle plan. So first of all, you would break out of here obviously. When some tomato mutants come, you would take them down but if they do just turn around and use your back as a wall barrier.
Crunch: That's exactly what I did earlier.
Aku Aku: Use your robotic hand to shoot the tomato mutants. I mean like turn around but face your robotic hand backwards. Then you shoot rockets that way.
Crunch: You know what? I didn't even think of that!
Aku Aku: So you think that plan is so easy?
Crunch: Easier than I thought it would be!
Aku Aku: Are you ready?
Crunch: I was always ready!
Aku Aku: Good luck Crunch! I'm going back to the hut to check on Crash and Coco.
Crunch: Okay!
Aku Aku disappeared in some more green dusts and Crunch flexed his muscles and clenched his teeth.
Crunch: Time for a Crunch time!
Crunch bended the bars with his hands and then smashed his way and he took out two tomato mutants coming his way so he swiped out his robotic arm. He shot four crunch rockets at both of the mutants and they disappeared into more tomato juice.
Crunch: YEAH!
Crunch regret his voice tone when he said that because then he saw five tomato mutants coming his way. Crunch ran out and started to jeer and mock them.
Crunch: YUM! I like tomatoes! Give me some! Oh wait, you are tomatoes!
The five tomato mutants started squirting Crunch with some tomato juice and Crunch did exactly what Aku Aku told him to do. He faced backwards and then shot randomly at the mutants. Crunch wasn't sure how long he was supposed to be doing this but when he thinks that he was there for a long time, he turned around. He saw tomato splatters all over the place.
Crunch: Yeah!
Crunch ran past the spatters and turned the next corner of the castle.
AT CRASH'S HOUSE
Crash was feeling really energetic now. Crash calmly got out of bed and stretched.
Crash: (Yawn) Ahhh!
Crash opened his bedroom door and saw Aku Aku.
Crash: Hello Aku. I'm finally healed!
Aku Aku: Great job Crash! Let's check on Coco.
Crash and Aku Aku went to Coco's room and luckily, they saw her awake a feeling good.
Coco: Hi Crash. Hi Aku.
Aku Aku: Hello Coco. Are you feeling okay?
Coco: Yeah I'm feeling fine.
Aku Aku: Good! So right now, Crunch is at Cortex Castle and he is trying to fight off a large quality of the tomato mutants!
Coco: Really? That's great!
Aku Aku: Yes it is.
Crash: Then can we help as well?
Aku Aku: (Sigh) that's the tough part I will have to tell you. I can't risk you and Coco out there and getting sprayed with more tomato juice! You have to find a way to take out some of the tomato mutants. Of course, I knew what's the best and most effective way to defeat those mutants!
Crash: And what is it?
Aku Aku: You need projectiles you can throw.
Crash: Then that's easy! I and Coco can just-
Coco: Jack a mutant!
Aku Aku: Good idea!
Crash: I don't think a Grimly is too effective because though it slows time, it moves kind of slow, and it can't shoot.
Coco: Then I guess we can get some Snipes!
Crash: Wait I got it!
Crash smirked when he said that.
Crash: I'll get a Snipe, and Coco will get a Stench.
Coco was too enthusiastic about this plan, that it took a couple of seconds for her to realize, and her face from an excited face to a traumatized face.
Coco: (Hollering) that's a great idea Crash! Our plan is great- wait a second, WHAT?!
Crash: You heard it right Coco! (Laughing) You get the stench!
Coco: (Shooking her head) No way! There's no way I'm gonna jack a mutant that smells way worser than Crash!
Crash laughed harder and fell on the floor. Aku Aku just smiled.
Aku Aku: Well to be honest with you Coco, you'll have to go with what Crash is saying!
Coco: WHAT?! Why can't I just get another Snipe!?
Aku Aku: (Calmly) because Snipe's aren't good when enemies get to close. But Stenches are good!
Coco: (Sigh) Fine. I'll just have get a nose clip when I get that chance!
AT CORTEX CASTLE
Cortex was in his room throwing more darts at the picture of Crash on the wall. Whenever Cortex decided not to do something, well there you have it! Something that Cortex has! Cortex heard the sound of footsteps and decided to walk out his room and see what it was. Cortex to his surprise saw Crunch standing there just a couple yards away from him staring at him.
Cortex: Well Crunch! Looks like you are one tough bandicoot!
Ten more tomato mutants rushed to Cortex's side.
Crunch: I got to say, I'm way faster than these ten tomato mutants!
Crunch shot rockets as fast as he could and closing his eyes. He charged up six mega rockets along with that.
25 SECONDS LATER
Crunch opened his eyes. After he saw the smoke disappeared, he noticed that there were more tomato spatters all over the place. Cortex had escaped however, and Crunch noticed that because right before he shot his rockets, he saw Cortex run away.
Crunch: NOOOOO!
Crunch was glad that he has destroyed the next line of tomato hordes but got furious that Cortex fled again. Cortex rushed inside N. Brio's lab and then dispensed another row of mutants.
N. Brio: Well Cortex! Those bandicoots are giving those mutants a really difficult time. We now only have one half the capacity of tomato mutants left!
Cortex: And what does that mean?
N. Brio: It means that we only have fifty mutants left!
Cortex: Whoa! Didn't expect that to come!
N. Brio: Ah don't worry! When there are no more mutants left, I have a really special plan for those wretched bandicoots!
Cortex: Nice! Can't wait to see what's that going to be!
Cortex and the ten new tomato mutants walked out. Crunch saw them almost instantly and knew this was his chance.
Crunch: CRUNCH ROCKET TIME!
Crunch shot more rockets as fast as he could but Cortex wasn't going to fall into that kind of trap again. Cortex and the tomato mutants fled a bit backwards and then the tomato mutants made some kind of blocking arrow formation in front of Cortex to protect him.
Cortex: Didn't expect that to happen but I'll go with it!
The lead tomato mutant who was in the very middle and at the front charged up tomatoes while the others squirted tomato juice. Each time the lead tomato mutant threw a tomato, the tomato mutants would squirt tomato juice at the tomato to make it go further. Almost all of them missed but one actually hit Crunch in the face.
Crunch: YARGGG!
Crunch propelled backwards but then heard two more bandicoots that sounded like they were outside.
OUTSIDE CORTEX CASTLE
Crash, Coco, and Aku Aku were nearly just a couple meters away from the drawbridge. Cortex eventually saw them and sended out one Ratcicle, one Snipe, and one Stench to take out all of them. As they rushed outside, Crash and Coco talked quietly of some kind of plan. Then they put their plan into action.
Crash: Let's do this!
Coco: Get ready!
Crash ran to the left and Coco ran to the right. A Snipe ran to Crash while a Stench ran to Coco. Coco quickly put on a nose clip and then as the Snipe and Stench started shooting. Crash and Coco spined furiously deflect all the shots. They jacked the mutants and with a coincidence, the Ratcicle was in the middle of both of Crash and Coco. Crash and Coco shot furiously at the Ratcicle and the Ratcicle disappeared into more purple particles.
Aku Aku: Good job! Now let's help Crunch!
Then Crash and Coco controlled their mutants and rushed inside the Castle ready to give a beating to the tomato mutants!
