Chapter 13: Tame the Sea
When the group came across Rio, he said, "what's shakin', my bacon?" "Aren't you the guy we saw before," said Musasha. "What an educated guess, babe! So tell me—we havin' soosh for din-dins again tonight?" "It's sushi, not "soosh". Use its proper name," said Jinrai, tries to take Rio, but is held back Ara-o, Kyatten, and Pyonten. "Uh… Check THIS idea out instead-you, and Y.T play a gameroo! This'll only take a Minnie!" "Don't dodge the issue! LISTEN!" "After we battle him, someone is going to die," said Celia. "Celia," said Musashi. "Sorry, but I hate the guy!"
After the battle, Rio said, "zing-a-rama! You deserve a prezzo for that!" Rio tosses Musashi, Musasha, Archie and Celia; each a Searing Torch. "So…who are you, anyway? You're not with the Empire, right," said Musashi. "Cause if you are, you'll die," said Celia. "Come one! This loonatic can't be in the Empire," said Ara-o. "Even the Empire holds sushi sacred enough not to stoop to calling it "soosh"," said Kyatten. "The wise sushi sprite had spoken. This nimrod can't be what we're up against," said Pyonten. "You wanna be on a first-name basis, huh? Then go ahead and call me Rio," said Rio. "Seriously? That's your name?! How pathetic. Especially for me," said Jinrai. "And I don't limit myself to the Empire! I got my fingers in a lot of sushi pies!" "Sushi…pies? Eww," said Musashi. "That's disgusting," said Musasha. "Hey! I'll add that to my restaurant," said Archie. "Archie," said the Heroic Twins, annoyed from what they heard. "Sorry…"
"You've probably seen me in pictures. Like the one I took way back with a big-timer," said Rio. "A big-timer? With you? That's rich," said Jinrai. "Hey, I'm not all talk! Watch me back it up! I don't like to drop names, but… Here's a photo of me with the legendary soosh striker Jubay!" When the group sees the picture, Musasha said, "O my sushi! That's- Tha- He's- That guy! Dear brother! Are you seeing this?!" "I am, dear sister! That's our DAD," said Musashi. "What," said Archie and Celia, in shock. "Is this true, Twins," said Jinrai. "I heard about him," said Pyonten. "Me too," said Ara-o. "OH! I knew that face looked familiar," said Kyatten. "You're the li'l Twin Jubays then, huh? Jubay Juniors? Far out," said Rio. "What are you saying," said Celia. "Do you actually know this man," said Archie. "Jubay? Sure! I know him like the small of my back! No! All wrong! CUT! To Giroppon, and step on it! Catch and release ya later," said Rio, leaving group. "Hey! You can't leave NOW! Come back," said Musasha. "Where is he? Do you know our Mom too," said Musashi. "It's no point! He got away," said Celia.
"My friends and I heard of this Jubay, but we had no inkling that the Twins were related to him," said Jinrai. "Yeah… us either. So our dad was a legendary sushi striker, huh," said Musashi. "That explains why we're so good at our striker job," said Musasha. "Jinrai…you said you heard of him! What do you know? What was he like?" "Indeed. We don't remember him much. We were really little…and he never said why he left…" "Well… I'll tell you what my friends and I recall," said Jinrai. "Jubay was the Republic's ace striker in the Sushi Struggles. "Legendary" is an apt term," said Ara-o. "He loved sushi with a fierce passion. He was known as a man who'd give his life for sushi," said Kyatten. "His… His life," said Musashi, confused. "That's all we remember. After a certain point, we didn't hear much about him anymore," said Jinrai. "Then the war…he must've…," said Musasha, cries, and hugs her brother for comfort. "Twins! Contain yourself! If all we've heard of the man is true, I don't doubt he's alive somewhere in this world. Those who appreciate sushi find that sushi repays the favor." "Actually, while Celia and I were in the Empire, we heard rumors that he's still alive," said Pyonten. "It's true… we believe he is alive. That means you and your sister still have a chance, Musashi," said Celia. "O-ok," said Musashi, stops his crying with his sister.
When the group ran into Ausprey's soldiers, Musashi and Archie blushed a bit until Ausprey appeared out of nowhere. "What's this I hear about you feeding kids sushi without wasabi? It's not the same at all without wasabi. You're gonna stunt their growth," said Ausprey. "Funny, I was gonna say the same to-," said Musashi. "Foooound you! Now it's your turn to seek, Golden Boy," said the Captain. "Hoo boy! Here we go again! Looks like I'm about to have my hands full! Does someone wanna finish up here," said Ausprey, as he leaves. "We'll do it, hot stuff," said imperial soldiers. "I've really had it with this guy… Take a rest Archie and dear brother! We'll take them down. Right Celia," said Musasha. "Yeah! Time to arrow these hags," said Celia.
After battling them, Cpt. Eagel said from her defeat, "Oh well… You got the better of me. Well done, Sushi Striker Twins. Maybe you're the ones who can make General Ausprey see reason." "What you did she mean by that," said Archie. "When he was younger, General Ausprey loved sushi with all his heart. But he grew…eccentric and now cares more about seasoning than sushi. He gets crabby when people don't get it, making him push wasabi even harder." "Hrrh. Ironic that a man would love sushi so much that he became blind to its potential," said Jinrai. "You said it," said Ara-o. "Do something, Twins! Find a way to bring back the OLD old man," said Cpt. Eagel. "Alright. Getting rid of enemy forever is to make them your friend anyway," said Musasha. "I'll see what we can do," said Musashi. "Good luck, Twins," said Cpt. Eagel. "Just don't get near Musashi, lady," said Celia, defends Musashi. "Um…..ok?"
When the group found Ausprey, he said, "I'm surprised you packed enough of a punch without wasabi to make it here!" "Look, wasabi isn't all there is to sushi! Sushi is great even without it," said Musasha. Look at these kids who think they know everything! I'll show you a thing or two!" "So much for talking to the guy! Guess we have to fight," said Celia. "Stooooop," said Kojiro, goes in between the group and Ausprey. "Another tyke? I'm drowning in 'em here…," said Ausprey. "Save your breath, gramps. I'll beat this two-bit striker; Musashi for you. And I'll take his sister to be mine forever more as a girlfriend." "Never gonna happen," said Musasha annoyed and angry. "You will, huh? Didn't you already take your lumps once before," said Ausprey. "One more chance! You gotta give me one more chance! I'll clobber him! And I'll make Musasha one of us," said Kojiro. "Still… never gonna happen," said Musasha. "Ehehheh. Well, fine. But if you lose, don't come crawling back to me. You're out," said Ausprey. "For real?! That's it, Musashi. You're all that stands between me and the good life & your sister's heart," said Kojiro.
After the battle, Kojiro said, "Argh! AAAARRRRRGGGHH! So you got a cheap win, Musashi! SO what?! I know your tricks now! Next time, your sister will be mine after I beat you! Waaaaah!" "AGAIN… Never going to happen," said Musasha. "How many times have you ran into this guy," said Celia. "Possibly seven to nine times today," said Archie. ""Cheap win"? If that's what makes him feel better," said Musashi. "Let's keep going to defeat the General of Area," said Musasha. "The sister is right! Move out!"
