Here we go! This is the last chapter of the year people, so enjoy and review!
At the party, Nazz scolds Rolf: "It's your fault the fight even happened. You should be ashamed."
"My bad..." Rolf apologizes.
Jenna calls her father on her cellphone for advice (in Spanish), then goes to break up the crowd that's still talking about the Eddy vs. Lee fight.
"Alright people, break it up! Vamos!!!" she shouts.
"You heard her, the fight's over!" Paul says, helping Jenna with the crowd.
"Just continue with the party, everyone." Jenna says. The crowd breaks up and the party resumes, though it's nowhere near its previous intensity.
Ed and Double-D sit with the recuperating Eddy at a table. Nazz comes to see Eddy.
"Need anything, Eddy?" she asks.
"Hmmm..." Eddy thinks..."Anybody got cigarettes?!"
"........ Got gum!" offers Ed.
Eddy declines, wondering about the jawbreaker promise Kubat made. "Man, what the hell's takin Kubat so long with those jawbreakers? It's already 11 PM!!!"
Double-D tires of Eddy's jawbreaker obsession and walks away.
"Wait." Nazz stops Double-D. "What's wrong with what Eddy said?"
"Eddy paid Mr. Kubat some cash in the hopes of obtaining 'practically infinite jawbreakers'." Double-D answers.
"Practically infinite jawbreakers!? Ooooooooh!!!" Nazz says at the thought of 'practically infinite' jawbreakers. "But as tempting as 'practically infinite' is, it almost sounds too good to be true."
"My point exactly, Nazz!" Double-D says.
Meanwhile, May reaches her trailer, screaming as Eddybot chases her close behind.
"GO AWAY!!!" May screams as she slams the front door on Eddybot's arm.
"YAH, YAH, YAH, YAH, YAH!!!" Eddybot fires several shots in an attempt to make May release the door. One shot blows out the lamp, alerting Marie who's in the kitchen. May closes the door on Eddybot as Marie comes in.
"What was that!?" Marie asks, baffled and seeing Plank in May's hands. "And why you got wierd party boy's board?"
"A robot's outside." May says, turning off the TV frantically. "Marie, we gotta go warn everyone about Kubat. He's gonna brainwash us all!!!"
"Ok, now you're just being silly." Marie says. "And whoever you slammed the door on probably wasn't even a robot."
"I'M SERIOUS, LISTEN!!!" May yells desperately. She explains everything to Marie about Kubat, his cult and plans, and the Robo-Eds. As they talk, Eddybot quietly slinks in through the ceiling door upstairs. He heads downstairs and disguises himself as the phone (breaking the real one).
Marie doesn't believe May: "Did you eat Rolf's mushrooms or somethin, May? That's ridiculous!!! I'm callin Mom to deal with you." She reaches for the "phone', then sees the real phone broken on the floor. Then Eddybot reveals himself, laughing maniacally.
"AAAAAAAAAAH!!!!!" May and Marie scream as Eddybot attacks. He jumps on Marie, and his tail tip turns into a claw to pin May to the wall, thus she drops Plank. Marie struggles with Eddybot on the sofa as he extends his hand blades. Marie grabs his wrists...
"YAAAH!!!" Marie kicks Eddybot out through a window, releasing May who takes Plank. "YOU'RE RIGHT, MAY!!! LET'S GO!!!"
Mr. Kubat enters the room with the Brainwash Machine to operate the controls.
"Power: On!!!" he switches the power on. This causes all the screens in town to go static.
In Kyle's living room, he, Sarah, Jimmy and Zoe were playing DDR when the TV went static.
"The TV's out!..." Jimmy complains.
"What gives?..." Sarah asks.
"Eh, who cares!? I was dominating anyway!!!" boasts Zoe.
"I'll see what's wrong." Kyle tries to fix the TV.
The big plasma TV screen at the party has gone static. Everyone watches in confusion. Even the DJ stops to see it.
"What's happening?" Jenna asks, worried about her party.
Behind the club and at several other places, squads of Kubat's henchmen gather.
Lee is walking home, discarding a cigarette butt she smoked. She sees several police cars speeding through the streets.
"Somebody musta committed murder." she thinks. Then Marie and May come from around a corner and crash into Lee, knocking them to the ground.
"What's got you 2 so freaked out?" Lee asks sharpishly.
"Quick, we gotta warn everybody about Kubat because he has a brainwash thingy that gonna brainwash us all through our TV screens!!!" May says extremely fast, much to Lee's confusion.
"And there's this, no THESE robots that look like our boyfriends and work for Kubat, and they're tryna get us!!!" adds Marie, baffling Lee even more.
Lee throws off her sisters, not believing them: "Did you eat Rolf's mushrooms or somethin, girls? Cuz what you're sayin is all cock and bull!!!"
A bright light shines down on the Kankers. They look up and see Meta-D, in his helicopter form and shining the light from his underside. May thinks it's a rescue chopper (though Meta-D's far smaller than a real chopper).
"HEY, HEY!!! HELP US!!!" May screams.
"There they are! Get them!" Meta-D contacts Edroid and Eddybot to the Kankers' location. Edroid arrives first.
"AAAAAAH!!!!" the Kankers scream. Then Meta-D reverts to his robot form and drops down behind the Kankers. "AAAAAAAAH!!!!" they scream again. A bus is coming by, then the Kankers force the door open and enter it.
"SPEED UP!!!" Marie screams to the driver, who sees Edroid and Meta-D. He screams and drives away at full speed. But before they get far, Edroid rocket-jumps in front of the bus and holds his hand out when it reaches him. This stops the bus in its tracks, smashing the front inwards and sending the Kankers and the bus driver flying through the windshield. They soar 30 feet through the air before finally hitting the ground, then the bus driver runs screaming like a girl. The Kankers get up and hide behind a car, waiting for Edroid to walk by.
"Whew!..." May sighs in relief.
"Come on, let's go while they have their backs turned." Lee says as she turns around. Suddenly, Eddybot pops up. "WHAT THE-"
Eddybot grabs Lee with his tail claw and lifts her off the ground. "Hehehe! I'll kill you nice n slow!" he says, strangling Lee.
"LEE!!!" May and Marie scream. Marie rushes to help, but Meta-D intercepts her. Edroid discovers May behind the car and tosses it aside, then tries to punch her but she frantically ducks.
"GAH!" Marie leaps back from Meta-D, then decides to fight. She pulls a stop sign from the ground and swings at Meta-D, who dodges. "BRING IT, METALHEAD!!!"
"With pleasure!" Meta-D replies. He pulls the helicopter blades off his back, then fuses them with his hands to form rotary saws. This intimidates Marie, but she fights anyway.
May runs from Edroid's blaster shots, then takes out a bottle of Kanker Rubber Cement from under her dress. "GET AWAY FROM ME, HULK!!!" she squirts the rubber cement into Edroid's eyes, blinding him.
"Argh, where are you!?" Edroid groans angrily, trying to pull the sticky cement off his eyes. Meanwhile, Eddybot continues to swing Lee around on his tail as she tries to break free.
"If this doesn't work..." Lee reaches for a water bottle in her pocket. She bites off the cap, and splashes some water on Eddybot's body, but no effect. Then she pours it into the sockets connecting Eddybot's tail segments, making it go static temporarily.
"AH!!!" Eddybot wails as his tail is stunned, dropping Lee who roundhouse kicks him in the face.
Marie tries to get close enough to hit Meta-D with her stop sign without being sliced up herself. But as she guards, Meta-D chops the stop sign in half, disarming Marie. She backs away.
Eddybot regains control of his tail and begins whipping his tail blade at Lee, forcing her to back away. The water flies off Eddybot's tail as he whips it around, and it washes the rubber cement off Edroid's eyes. He approaches May, who was trying to open a fire hydrant (using Plank's nook like a wrench) to spray water at him. May backs away.
The 3 sisters back away from the Robo-Eds and bump up against each other, now trapped. The Robo-Eds surround them, aiming their blasters.
"Say your prayers, females!" Eddybot says with a sinister grin. Then we hear approaching sirens...
... The police have arrived, their cars' headlights shining on the Robo-Eds. "Great..." Eddybot mumbles in annoyance.
"GET OUTTA THE WAY, GIRLS!!!" the police sheriff shouts as they ready their weapons. The Kankers then take the chance to escape while the Robo-Eds are distracted by the police assault. As they race to the party, it begins to rain...
"Man, we gotta hurry!!!" Lee says.
The Brainwash Machine's loading has reached 100%. "And the password!..." Kubat types the password...
The Kankers finally reach the party, who are still staring at the static plasma TV screen.
"HEY, GUYS!!! LISTEN!!! LOOK THIS WAY!!! OVER HERE!!! EVERYBODY!!!" the Kankers scream over each other to gain the party's attention. They all look. Jonny sees May with Plank, then snatches him from her and rejoins the crowd.
"Well, what is it!?" shouts Kevin.
"LISTEN, WE ALL GOTTA GET OUTTA HERE RIGHT NOW!!!" Lee shouts.
"OR WE'LL ALL GET BRAINWASHED!!!" May warns, but everybody laughs except the Eds, Jonny, Nazz, Rachel and the goths, and Jenna.
"STOP LAUGHING, WE'RE SERIOUS!!!" Marie screams.
"WHAT THE HELL YOU SAYING!!!?" Jenna asks in disbelief. The Eds exchange looks of confusion.
"What, Plank?..." Jonny listens to Plank.......................................................... "EVERYBODY STOP, THE KANKERS ARE TELLING THE TRUTH!!!!!" Everyone looks to Jonny. "PLANK SAW IT, TOO!!! KUBAT'S LEADING AN EVIL CULT, AND THEY GOT A BRAINWASH MACHINE CONNECTED TO ALL OUR SCREENS TO ENSLAVE US!!! IT'S ALL A MATTER OF COUNTDOWN!!!!!"
"Now... let the countdown begin!" Kubat presses a large, red button. A 60-second timer appears on all the screens...
Sarah, Jimmy, Zoe and Kyle stare at the timer in confusion. "Huh?" gasps Kyle.
"NOW WHAT!?" Sarah asks angrily.
"Oooh, it's probably a suprise preview or somethin!!!" Zoe believes, grabbing her 3 friends so they can watch it.
"I don't think it's a preview..." says Jimmy.
The timer appears on the plasma TV screen at the party.....
"AAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAHHHHHHH!!!!!!!!" everyone screams and panics, scrambling about frantically. 50 seconds remain.
"QUICK, THE DOORS!!!" Jenna shouts. Everyone heads to the front doors, but Kubat's henchmen barricade it from outside, trapping them.
"NO, NO, NO, NO!!!!!" Nazz screams, banging on the doors. Kevin, Rolf and Paul try in vain to break them down.
Rachel and the goths climb an unstable ladder leading to a ventilation duct. Rachel and the long-haired goth make it up, then the ladder falls, the other 2 goths falling with it. Rachel and the long-haired goth quickly shrug this off, and they crawl through the ventilation ducts and escape.
30 seconds remain. The Eds search for another way out, but there's none. "CRAP!!!" Eddy screams.
Jonny sees the hole Eddy and Lee made, high up on the wall. "LOOK, UP THERE!!!"
"OUR ESCAPE, GUYS!!!" Double-D shouts at the hole. 15 seconds remain. Ed grabs his fellow Eds and throws them outside through the hole. Then he grabs the ladder and puts it on the hole. He climbs out, followed by the Kankers. Everyone follows, but so many climb the ladder at once that it collapses under their weight before any make it. Then... the timer hits zero...
A swirl appears on the plasma TV screen, and everyone looking at it gets brainwashed, their eyes also swirling...
Kubat uses a microphone-like device connected to the Brainwash Machine and says "All hail Lord Kubat." All the brainwashed people repeat this and start attacking and brainwashing stragglers, including those in the club.
Kubat laughs evilly as everyone in Peach Creek and the rest of town is brainwashed. His brainwashed slaves wander through the rainy streets, seeking out stragglers. The Robo-Eds leave the police, who are jumped from behind and brainwashed by the slaves via eye-contact.
The Eds and Kankers run through the rain, avoiding the slave-infested streets. But as they go, they are spotted from a distance by the Robo-Eds, standing on a rooftop and staring ominously at the real Eds. Meta-D initiates his right eye to record their escape...
End of Chapter 10!!!
As said, this is the final chapter of the year. I will resume submitting chapters on January 4, so until then, take care! I wish you all a merry Christmas and a Happy New Year!!!
