Meanwhile, Mike, June, and Dee Dee were wandering around town with Maya, Chrissy, and Maggie until a yellow dog with brown ears, wearing a red collar came over and barked at Mike, growling at her.

"Whoa! Easy, girl." Mike told the dog.

"Why do dogs always do that around you?" June asked her best friend.

"It's normal because I'm a you-know-what." Mike reminded.

"Makes sense." June shrugged.

"Whoa!" A young girl in pink rushed over to stop her dog. "Martha, knock it off! You know better than that."

"Oh, I'm sorry, Helen, but I couldn't help it." The dog actually talked to the girl.

"Whoa, you can talk?!" Mike asked the dog.

"You can understand me?!" Martha asked back.

"Martha, you know that everyone can talk to you." Helen reminded.

"Oh, sorry, I guess I got caught up in the moment." Martha smiled bashfully.

"Uh, is that dog actually talking?" Dee Dee asked.

"Yeah, Martha can talk because she ate some alphabet soup once." Chrissy explained.

"Dexter had a talking dog before," Dee Dee spoke up. "He thought that I was a stick."

"I'm surprised you remember that..." June commented.

"So, Martha ate alphabet soup and now she's a talking dog?" Mike asked.

"I know it sounds weird, but it's true," Helen replied. "I'm sorry Martha barked at you, she's usually pretty friendly, unless she meets a cat like my friend Alice's cat, Nelson."

"It's okay, no harm done." Mike replied.

"Say, how would you like to come over for tonight so we can get to know each other better?" Helen suggested.

"Okay." Mike replied.

June, Dee Dee, Maya, Maggie, and Chrissy all nodded in agreement.

"Let me call my friends first." Mike then said.

At the hotel, Justin, Justine, and Jo were there. Justin was flipping the channels, Jo was reading a comic book, and Justine was looking outside, looking worried.

"Justine?" Jo looked over as she could sense there was something wrong.

"Huh? What?" Justine blinked.

"Something the matter, Babe?" Jo asked.

"Oh, it's nothing." Justine replied.

"I know something's wrong," Jo said. "I've been with you long enough to know when something's eating you."

"The others haven't come back," Justine replied. "I'm getting worried."

"If it bothers you that much, we can call them." Justin suggested to his twin sister.

Jo's cell phone then rang and she answered it. "What?"

"Hey, Jo, can you tell the others that me, June, and Dee Dee won't be back tonight?" Mike replied. "We're spending the night at Helen's house with Maya, Maggie, and Chrissy."

"Sure, Boss." Jo replied.

"Thanks, Jo," Mike replied. "I'm not sure about the others, but I'm sure they're fine since nothing dangerous really happens in this town, I mean, they have seven monsters running around like nobody's business and a family of lions run a library."

"You have fun." Jo said to her.

"I will, see ya tomorrow." Mike said before hanging up.

Jo then hung up before she looked over to her worried looking girlfriend.

"Nobody is answering," Justine said. "Not even Double D or Cindy."

"I'm sure they're okay," Justin said. "They're probably just hanging out with some new friends."

Justine didn't say anything, but soon went to go out the door. "You two are welcome to join me." She then said as she decided to go and look for the others.

Jo and Justin looked over. Justin sighed as he felt like he didn't have a choice and decided to go with his sister.

"I'm coming too, just in case there's any danger," Jo said. "I gotta protect you."

"I doubt there'll be a whole of danger in this town, but glad to have you on board, Jo," Justin said. "I mean, we're gonna be family someday, because I know how much Justine means to you."

"Yeah, like you and Jayna," Jo replied. "I'm glad you stopped dragging your feet and committed to her already."

"Yeah, let's go." Justin blushed.

They went out to find the others.

Meanwhile, Duncan took Abby, Ed, Double D, Alexandra, and Cindy to a secret cavern since he heard people talking about it and unfortunately, they didn't know how to get out.

"Duncan, admit it, we're lost!" Cindy complained.

"We're not lost," Duncan replied. "I know the way out."

"You said that hours ago!" Alexandra complained as she sat down and took off her shoes. "Now my feet are aching!"

Double D tried to dial his phone to see if he could get an answer, but nothing. "No service!" he then groaned.

"Oh, great, Duncan," Cindy complained. "We're in this place, no one knows where we are, we have no way out! We might as well be trapped in a hole!"

"Will you guys stop complaining?" Duncan replied. "That's all you, Double D, and Alexandra have been doing ever since we came down here!"

"Did you have to come here?!" Double D glared.

"Yes, I was curious to see what this place was." Duncan defended.

"Well, if you didn't want us to complain, then you should've thought of a way to get us out or at least tell the others where we would be!" Alexandra snapped.

"Ed will never see Dee Dee or Baby Sister ever again!" Ed cried out.

"We'll get out of here, I know we will." Duncan told them.

"I hope so." Cindy replied.

Unknown to them, a figure peaked behind the rock narrowing their eyes.

Meanwhile Jo, Justin, and Justine were looking for their friends in the woods.

"You guys, where are you?" Justine called out. "Ed? Double D? Cindy?"

"No answer... They must be pretty lost..." Justin said. "I'm sure they're fine though, Sis."

Justine didn't say anything as she saw something unsual on the ground. She gasped as she picked it up. "Double D's magnifying glass... But he never goes anywhere without it..." she whispered in shock.

"That is a bit out-of-character for him..." Jo said. "I don't know anyone dangerous in this town, but who do you think took 'em?"

"Maybe it was that old guy?" Justin asked.

"Oh, Justin, Mr. Rogers is a very nice man," Justine replied. "He's like the grandfather we never had."

"...Yeah, that's true." Justin admitted about Mr. Rogers who was very friendly even if Duncan and Abby thought he was creepy.

"Wait a minute... What about WordGirl's villains?" Jo suggested. "They might have them."

"That's a good idea." Justin replied.

"I have some cards on them," Justine said as she took out a trading card book. "We can question them. Let's see..."

They soon looked to the cards to see the various enemies of WordGirl such as Dr. Two-Brains, Birthday Girl, Tobey McCallister III, Victoria Best, The Butcher, Granny May, Lady Redundant Woman, Chuck the Evil Sandwich Making Guy, and many, many more.

"So, who do we start with?" Jo asked.

"Dr. Two-Brains, he's gotta be the one." Justine replied.

"Wait... Before we go... Don't ya think we should use some 'Super Help'?" Jo suggested to the Reid twins with air quotes.

"You think it's a good idea?" Justine asked.

"Don't worry, have I ever let you down before?" Jo replied.

"Well-" Justin replied only to be cut off.

"Don't answer that."

"Well... All right then..." Justin said.

Justin and Justine soon joined hands like the Wonder Twins using their power rings and soon became the Volcano Twins known as Arceus and Kala while Jo soon became Shadow Wolf.

At Dr. Two-Brains' lair, Dr. Two-Brains was having his henchmen move in a new TV.

"Okay, just a little bit to the left." Dr. Two-Brains told them.

"My left or your left, Boss?" Meatloaf asked.

"My left!" Dr. Two-Brains replied.

"You think this way too, Charlie? Okay, I guess we can try it." Meatloaf replied.

The two henchmen tried to help Dr. Two-Brains.

"Ugh... Why did I hire you two again?" Dr. Two-Brains complained.

"You said we were good company?" Meatloaf pouted with Charlie.

"Okay, okay, just a little further back," Dr. Two-Brains told them. "Now, straighten it. I don't like to watch my soaps on a crooked TV. There, now you got it, beautiful!"

"It sure is, Boss," Meatloaf replied. "Say, Boss, can me and Charlie get something to eat? We're hungry."

"Oh, sure thing, but bring me those Cheese Puffs while you're out." Dr. Two-Brains told them.

"Sure, Boss." Meatloaf replied.

"Now to watch some Fetch! with Ruff Ruffman," Dr. Two-Brains said as he turned on the TV to show a game show with kids doing activities with a cartoon dog as the host. He then grabbed a can of root beer and relaxed himself. "Ah, this is nice... Some peace and quiet."

"Not so fast!" Shadow Wolf glared as she kicked down the door.

"WordGirl, do you have to kick down the door?" Dr. Two-Brains asked before looking over. "Say, you're not WordGirl..."

"Darn right I'm not." Shadow Wolf replied.

"...Who are you?" Dr. Two-Brains asked.

"I am Shadow Wolf, and these are my associates: Kala and Arceus, the Volcano Twins!" Shadow Wolf glared. "Now, where are they?!"

"They who...?" Dr. Two-Brains asked out of confusion.

"The kids!" Shadow Wolf glared.

"What kids?" Dr. Two-Brains shrugged.

"You know who I'm talking about!" Shadow Wolf glared.

"I do not..." Dr. Two-Brains replied before looking to the Volcano Twins. "What is your friend talking about?"

"Uh... Have you seen this bunch?" Kala asked, showing a picture of their missing friends since Shadow Wolf's interrogation wasn't working.

"No, I haven't, it's my day-off," Dr. Two-Brains replied. "I just ordered a new TV today."

"Um... It looks nice?" Arceus replied.

"Isn't it?" Dr. Two-Brains smiled. "Now I can get Netflix and Hulu so I can catch up on my soaps."

"Sorry we wasted your time." Kala said.

"Don't break down the door next time," Dr. Two-Brains replied. "You think doors grow on trees?"

Kala and Arceus blinked.

"Never mind, just get outta here." Dr. Two-Brains told them as he went back to relaxing as they left.

"Well, he's clean, who do you think we can try now?" Shadow Wolf asked the twins.

"Mr. Big!" Kala replied. "He probably hypnotized them into being his slaves!"

"To Mr. Big's office!" Arceus proclaimed.

They soon went there.

Mr. Big's assistant known as Leslie appeared to be watching The Pretty Princess and Magic Pony Power Hour.

"Leslie, cancel my appointments," Mr. Big told his assistant. "I'm going to my office to play the new video game I've created."

"Yes, sir." Leslie replied.

"Heheh... Who says being the boss is difficult?" Mr. Big chuckled to himself. He then went into his office only to notice that his chair was turned around which aggravated him. "Leslie, how many times have I told you that is my chair?!"

"Hello." Kala said.

"Gah! Who are you?" Mr. Big asked.

"That's not important right now, we just wanna ask you a question, then we'll be out of your way." Kala replied.

"What do you want?" Mr. Big asked.

"Have you seen them?" Kala asked as she pulled out a picture of her missing friends.

"I feel like I've seen these kids-" Mr. Big began.

"I KNEW IT!" Shadow Wolf glared.

"But they're not here." Mr. Big then said.

"Seriously?!" Arceus complained.

"Yes, now, can you leave now? You're getting my carpet dirty." Mr. Big replied.

Shadow Wolf and the Volcano Twins then left, much to their frustration over not being able to find their missing friends.

They soon asked all of the villains of WordGirl, but nobody had seen them, so the three of them are now on the roof, looking at the night sky.

"Oh, I miss them." Kala frowned as she hugged the magnifying glass.

"It's okay, Kala, I'm sure we'll find them." Arceus comforted his twin sister.

Kala looked at her twin brother with a sad face and hugged him.

"It's okay... It's okay..." Arceus soothed his twin sister as they hugged each other. "It's gonna be okay."

"It doesn't make any sense," Shadow Wolf said. "If WordGirl's villains don't have them, then who does?"

"Who can say?" Arceus replied. "I just hope they aren't hurt."

"I'm sure Skunk can protect them if they do." Shadow Wolf said, referring to Alexandra.

"Are we still going to find them?" Kala asked.

"Of course we are, Babe." Shadow Wolf reassured.

"Now I feel worse about Duncan..." Kala frowned.'

"Ah, Kala, don't worry about him, he's just such a hard head." Arceus soothed.

"I feel bad about yelling at him today." Kala then pouted.

"Kala, you can't let your feelings stand in the way," Arceus said. "I know you're sorry, but we'll worry about that when the time comes."

"I feel bad for being a bad friend to Butler and Lumpy." Shadow Wolf added.

"Come on, let's keep going." Arceus said.

Kala and Shadow Wolf followed, though they weren't sure what they could do.

Mike, June, and Dee Dee were soon in the Lorraine house and met Helen's family such as her baby brother named Jake and her parents, David and Mariella, and her other dog who was unable to talk like Martha named Skits.

"Hola and welcome." Mariella smiled.

"Thank you, ma'am, this looks like a nice place." Mike smiled back.

"It really is." David replied in agreement about his home.

"I hope you don't mind if they stay over for the night." Helen said to her parents.

"Not at all, honey, we have plenty of room." Mariella replied.

"Oh, uh, that sounds nice..." Mike said, but she just hoped that would be okay with the others.

June and Dee Dee soon looked to Mike in the same way.

"I hope you guys like chalupas." Mariella beamed.

"Yummy!" Dee Dee beamed.

"Thank you, ma'am." June said.

"But of course." Mariella smiled back to her company.

The kids smiled as they went upstairs to play until dinner was ready.

"This is my room, Martha usually sleeps on the floor next to my bed," Helen said as she sat on the bed while her little brother sat on the floor with the girls. "Jake seems to really like you, Mike."

"I like babies." Mike smiled as she played with Baby Jake who cooed to her.

"He almost looks like Ray-Ray when he was a baby... If only Ray-Ray could've stayed the way he was before he could talk." June commented.

"I love babies!" Dee Dee beamed. "One time, me and Dexter had to take care of Mom and Dad when all of the adults were turned into babies!"

"Uh...?" The other girls, minus Mike and June, asked.

"It's a long story." Mike told them.

"My little brother Dexter is a real genius." Dee Dee smiled.

"He even has a secret laboratory." Mike added.

"Not much if a secret if you tell us, especially Maya." Maggie said.

"Yeah, Maya's not too good with keeping secrets." Chrissy added.

"Hey! I'm good at keeping secrets!" Maya replied.

Maggie and Chrissy just looked at her.

"Well... Most of the time." Maya said.

"Trust us." Maggie told Mike, June, and Dee Dee.

"I'll take your word for it." Mike said.

"Hey, uh, sorry for growling at you before," Martha said to Mike. "No hard feelings, right?"

"Uh, it's all right," Mike told the talking dog. "You're not the first talking dog I've met after all. I'll tell you more later."

"I'm sorry, I'm usually very friendly." Martha reassured.

"Martha really is one of the most friendliest dogs you could ever meet." Helen smiled to Mike.

Martha then smiled to Mike and licked her face.

"Okay, cut it out," Mike chuckled to that. "I like you too."

The girls smiled as they were having a good time.

Meanwhile, the others were still trying to find a way out of the cavern.

"Can we take a break?" Double D asked. "I'm getting tired."

"We can't quit now, we're almost out." Duncan said.

"You said that HOURS AGO!" Cindy replied.

"Duncan, just say we're lost!" Alexandra added.

"Whoa... No need to get angry." Duncan replied.

"Too late." Alexandra replied as her left eye twitched.

"Look, just follow me, and we will b out of this cavern in no time." Duncan said as he backed up.

"I DON'T TRUST YOU!" Alexandra roared.

"Great, now you've done it." Cindy deadpanned.

"Look, you guys, just chill," Duncan said. "All we have to do is turn back, and then we're golden."

"We better be!" Alexandra replied.

Everyone was leaving, but Ed just stood there and looked at the wall.

"Ed?" Double D asked.

"What's that?" Ed asked, pointing to the wall.

On the wall, there was an image. It consisted of three stylized P-Heads, depicted as literally living things, complete with appendages.

"What are those?" Ed asked.

"Uh... Hang on a sec..." Cindy said before taking out her guidebook and began to look around the pages to find an answer since they couldn't use their phones. "Aha! They are the P-Pals."

"P-Pals?" Ed asked.

"Yes," Cindy replied. "They dance and sing 'This is P-B-S, woo-hoo!'."

"Why?" Ed asked.

"Just because," Cindy replied. "Also, according to this, they used to be a big thing until someone took over from them... Hmm... Now I'm curious of what this could all mean."

"It's gotta mean something." Double D added as he looked through his guidebook as well.

A figure went behind Cindy, grabbing and taking her away.

"What do you think, Cindy?" Double D asked before looking around. "...Cindy?"

"Oh, great, now that cute little girl is gone." Alexandra glared.

"Aw, Cin's always in trouble, but she's fine." Duncan replied.

"We gotta save her!" Alexandra said.

"Now?" Duncan asked.

"Is she your friend?" Alexandra glanced at Duncan seriously.

"Yeah...?" Duncan replied.

"THEN WE'RE GONNA SAVE HER!" Alexandra scowled.

"Okay, okay. Calm down." Duncan told her.

"No, you dragged us out here, you made me come here, and now we're lost and we have no idea what we're doing, if this is anyone's fault, it's yours, SO YOU DO NOT TELL ME TO CALM DOWN, BECAUSE I AM BEYOND PISSED WITH YOU FOR EVERYTHING YOU HAVE EVER DONE!" Alexandra snarled.

"Erm... Is it too late to say I'm sorry?" Duncan asked.

Alexandra simply roared in his face, not fully transforming yet.

"Alexandra sounds like Mom whenever Dad comes home late after working overtime." Ed commented.

Duncan blinked as his hair was blown back.

"Come on, we gotta find Cindy," Double D said. "And I will lead this time."

Alexandra looked to him.

"Uh, if that's okay with you, I mean." Double D smiled nervously.

Alexandra nodded as she allowed Double D to take charge.

"Thank you, now the first thing we gotta figure out is who took Cindy." Double D said.

"But we didn't see anybody, Genius." Abby clarified.

"We might not have seen anyone, but we're clearly not alone if Cindy was taken." Double D replied.

"Okay, you got me there, but who though?" Abby wondered. "The only villains this town has are the ones that WordGirl deals with, but I seriously doubt that they have a motive. And besides, they don't even know Cindy."

"That's just what we have to figure out..." Double D replied. "We have to see who else it could've been... I doubt it was Dash and Dot though, they're very sweet kids."

"What about the Tough Customers Duncan and I met?" Abby suggested. "It's gotta be them!"

"Hm... Were they dangerous?" Double D asked.

"Mostly," Duncan replied. "I still can't get over them being elementary school kids, they look like middle school kids."

"Yeah, Molly and Rattles remind me of us when we were younger." Abby smirked to her brother.

"I suppose that's possible..." Double D said, thinking about the Tough Customers even if he didn't exactly know them.

"It could be those seven little monsters that Mike met the other day?" Alexandra suggested.

"Mike says that they're harmless though mostly like her old friends, Ickis, Krumm, and Oblina." Double D said.

"But we don't know that for sure though." Duncan said.

"I'll put them down as a maybe," Double D replied. "Anyone else?"

"That Francine Frensky girl," Duncan suggested. "She's the one who told us about this cavern."

"Hmm... That's pretty interesting information..." Double D said.

"It's hopeless!" Ed cried. "We'll never see Cindy again!"

"Calm down, big guy, we will-Hello, what do we have here?" Abby replied until she found something and soon picked up a piece of clothing. "What do you guys make of this?"

"Looks like it came from a cloak." Alexandra guessed.

Double D glances through it even if he doesn't have his magnifying glass. "She's right."

"Hmm... It's starting to come together now..." Alexandra said. "We might have a lead to find that kid."

"Okay, Abby, find the scent." Duncan told his sister.

Abby saluted before turning into a dog.

"Good Sis." Duncan chuckled.

"Easy now," Abby warned as she took the scent of the cloak for a moment to identify it. "Got it! Now, follow me."

The group then followed her so that they would get a lead on Cindy.
