Time Fixers: Nicktoons of the Future
Episode 13: The New Nicktoons
Plot: Things are getting busy, especially for our fellow Nicktoons. Darry has to take afterschool classes with Coach Baxter in order to pass gym, Tammy's busy debating in her fan-club, Tommy's in detention for planting a stink bomb in school, and SpongeTron's literally falling apart due to an incident earlier. With the Nicktoons away, Jimmy has no choice but to recruit the Cadets as the current Nicktoons, but will the town survive with them in charge while evil is afoot?
Part 2
Somewhere in another part of town, the Nicktoon Cadets were walking around patrolling the city with their new leader. "This is so great!" Junior said excitedly, "Our first Nicktoon job with me as leader. This gonna be so much fun!"
Crash frowned bitterly as he muttered, "It should've been me."
"Or me." Kida whispered back to him.
"Youmeanme." Twitchy whispered at fast speed.
"Nah ah ah." Junior said as he wagged his finger. "As leader, my first rule is no more fighting. And my next rule is that we should get new uniforms to wear while we're Nicktoons!"
Everyone was baffled by his 'rule' that Yuki spoke up, "Um, Junior? The Nicktoons don't need uniforms. They've never worn uniforms."
"Well, Jimmy made me leader and says you guys can do WHATEVER I say," Junior reminded, "So I say as Nicktoons, we wear uniforms!"
"Well, dressing up can be fun." Kida mentioned. "How bad can it be?"
The Nicktoon Cadets soon went to a costume store to buy new uniforms for them to wear. However, Junior didn't really know exactly what uniforms were supposed to be. The younger sponge came out of the store wearing a long cape, oversized gloves, a Mermaid Man belt, and an Ultralord mask. "Now I REALLY feel like a Nicktoon!" he cheered. "Right guys?"
Yuki walked out of the store next, wearing a sailor girl outfit with fairy wings and wand. "This has got to be the most embarrassing moment of my life." she groaned dully.
Crash came out wearing a plaid shirt, blue shorts, and cowboy boots, he still had his helmet on, but it had a top hat on top. "I think that skirt looks slimmin' on you." he told Yuki until she glared at him.
Then Kida comes out wearing a cheerleader uniform, her pigtails twisted into buns on the sides of her head, wearing slippers with kitten heads, and a vampire cape. Twitchy came out last wearing bunny ears on his head, a gas mask on his face, and a pirate outfit on. "Junior, is this really necessary?" Kida asked uncomfortably.
"Of course." Junior explained. "Now no one will figure out our secret identities when we fight bad guys."
"Junior, you're a sponge." Yuki pointed out. "You don't have a secret identity."
However, Junior started tearing up. "But...But Jimmy said I was leader." then he started sobbing, "Do you mean you don't like me as leader?!"
"No! No! No! Of course not!" the three kids said waving their hands.
"You're a great leader," Yuki excused, "And these costumes, they rock!"
Junior began to calm down. "Really?"
"Yeah," Kida replied with a fake smile. "We were wondering what your next orders were."
"Great!" Junior cheered happily. "I got something else fun for us to do as Nicktoons!"
Soon, somewhere in an unknown location the Cadets were inside a large cardboard box. "See? Now we have a secret hideout where no one can find us!" Junior said and giggled, "Cuz it's a secret."
Unfortunately, the box wasn't big enough to fit all the kids together. "Yuki, watch your foot!" Kida yelled, not enjoying the cramp space.
"Who's touching me there?" Yuki snapped angrily.
"Careful!" Crash cried out. "I bruised my ribs in that spot last week!"
Twitchy yelped, "Okay, who stepped on my tail?!"
"Whoever's not here, say present," Junior asked. No one responded since everyone was here already, so Junior says, "Okay, the next thing we do is..." He places some crayons and coloring books out, "Coloring! Cuz that's I see Tammy do with the others when they're Nicktoons."
"Actually, Junior, I think she's drawing a plan," Kida corrected.
"Jimmy says I'm leader," Junior reminded, "And I say it's coloring..." he continues to scribble on the coloring book.
Crash scoffs, "If I was leader, we all would be hangin' in the industrial park…"
"What was that?" Junior glared.
"I-I-I said that a good leader would take us to the park." Crash quickly said, "Like you, cuz I think you're a good leader and that's what y'all should do."
Junior smiled and said, "That's a great idea. SpongeTron goes to the park all the time too."
"But that's only cuz he's takin' care of Max." Twitchy pointed out.
"Nicktoons, let's go go go!" Junior called out as he hopped out of the box.
In HQ, SpongeTron was bored outta his mind though Max was enjoying himself, by banging his rattle on his head and sometimes drooling on it. "What's taking so long?" SpongeTron complained. "I need my parts back before I go crazy." Then, Max grabs ahold of his nose and yanks it off. He giggles and chews on it with his gums. SpongeTron gets a disgusted look as he asks, "Ew, Max, did you have puree squash again for lunch?" The sliding doors open as Buster, Marie, and the triplet enter holding a bunch of SpongeTron's parts. SpongeTron asks, "Please tell me you found them all."
"We found the last one," Marie said, holding up his lower torso, "But I don't think you wanna know where it's been."
But SpongeTron's head jumped up and down impatiently and shouted, "Quick! You gotta put them back together! Right away!"
"Right!" Allie said as she grabs all the parts and scrambles them all together to SpongeTron's head. "There, all done!"
"Uh, Allie?" Sally pointed. The kids look down and realize they placed his legs where his arms are, arms where his legs should be, his lower torso on top of his head and the antenna on his nose.
"I thought he looked different." Allie mentioned sheepishly.
"Oh! Oh! I wanna try! I wanna try!" Dolly said and rearranged SpongeTron's parts. This time, his lower torso is placed under his head but one leg was underneath, the other leg and arm was on the right side, and an arm was on top of his head. "I call it: 'SpongeTron Picasso'."
"I'll show you how it's done." Marie said as she began to rearrange SpongeTron's parts next. Now his arms were below his torso, his feet on the top of his head, his nose on his forehead, and his antenna in his mouth. "Now he looks like the man-eating alien from the planet Glarg."
SpongeTron had enough and claims, "Now that you're finished, can you put my parts EXACTLY where they belong?!" Max giggled on the table as the five try to fix the robot. They did not notice that Max was being taken by Junior who exits through the sliding doors.
Soon, Max was being pushed in a stroller by Junior as he and his friends were going into the park. "Now we're real Nicktoons." Junior said as he pushed Max. "We're on a real mission and we're having lots of fun!"
"I can't believe SpongeTron let us babysit him for today," Kida said surprised.
Junior's eyes pop open when he admitted, "Well, I didn't ask SpongeTron cuz he seemed so busy."
"What about the Commander?" Yuki asked.
"He...wasn't really around." Junior admitted. "Neither was Mrs. Neutron."
"You took Max without permission?!"
"Well, I am the leader of the Nicktoons now." Junior pointed out. "Besides, Max loves to hang out with the Nicktoons. Don't you, Max?"
Max just giggled in response and hiccupped. However, Yuki says, "Junior, I have a feeling that you're abusing your leadership."
"Ah...boosing?" Junior questioned in bafflement. "I don't know what that means, but it gives me an idea." he said with a smile. "As leader, I should come up with our own theme song for the new Nicktoon team!"
"No, no, no, no!" everyone pleaded as they waved their hands.
"Hey!" Junior yelled out, "I'm leader and I say theme song!"
Yuki crossed her arms, "Junior, you're becoming a terrible leader!"
"Nah uh!" Junior pouted, "Everyone LOVES what I'm doing! Right guys?"
Kida, Twitchy, and Crash look at each other uneasily and rambled, "Well...uh...you see..."
"No, they don't!" Yuki yelled out, "You're doing everything wrong as leader! You're supposed to draw out good plans, patrol for any danger afoot, encourage your teammates, and treat them as your own team equally by considering their own opinions!"
"Yeah," Kida agreed. "Like Darry and Jimmy do."
"So, what are you saying?" Junior asked; his small mind unable to comprehend.
Yuki smacks her head and calmly says, "What I'm saying is, YOU'RE JUST BEING BOSSY!"
"I think you're jellzous that I'm being a better leader than you are," Junior pointed out.
Kida, Crash, and Twitchy stare at the two, especially Junior who's letting his leadership go to his head. But the three notice a strange cloud hovering over them. "Um…guys?" Kida was saying.
But Junior just continued, oblivious to what's going on. "You guys just can't admit that I'm the best leader ever and I got us all pretty costumes and I'm working on a theme song for all of us."
"Dudes,yougottaseethis!" Twitchy kept pointing upward.
"Nobody even likes your ideas in the first place!" Yuki screamed out loud.
The two didn't even notice the cloud casting a large shadow over them. Crash backs away, "Guys, I think we should get goin' now…"
"Well, Jimmy made ME leader!" Junior shouted angrily. "So he knows that I make a good leader and I'm the bestest one ever!"
"GUYS!" Kida screamed at the top of her lungs.
"What?!" Junior and Yuki yelled when they notice something looming over them. They look up to the strange cloud when a burst of bright light hits the Cadets. Suddenly, they start to hover upward as the light drags them into the cloud. After the Nicktoon Cadets disappeared, Max was the only one left, sitting in the stroller by himself. He manages to unbuckle himself and crawl out of the seat before making his way back home.
At Nicktoon HQ, Buster, Marie, and his sisters were still trying to put SpongeTron back together, after many failed attempts, it would seem they managed to succeed. "There." Sally said with a smile. "That should do it."
"Yeah." Allie added with a smile as well. "Everything looks like it's in place."
"I liked it better the other way, but I guess that's fine." Marie mentioned.
SpongeTron looked down at himself to see his arms, legs, and body all in the right places this time. "Hey, you're right. I do look like me again." But after he took one step, his whole body suddenly fell back into pieces.
Everyone gasped, "Wha...What in tarnation happened?" Dolly asked in surprise.
"I'm sure we placed every part in the right spot." Sally recalled.
"Oh no." SpongeTron groaned. "You guys didn't forget my stabilizer bolt, did you?"
"Stabilizing what?" Allie repeated.
"It's the final piece that actually holds me together," SpongeTron explained. Everyone looked at each other while Buster just shrugged in response. "You mean you guys didn't find it?" SpongeTron cried out frantically. "Now I'm gonna be stuck like this!"
"Don't worry, SpongeTron." Sally assured. "We'll just go back out and look for it."
"Oh please," Marie scoffed. "That thing can be anywhere. How are we supposed to find one little bolt."
Meanwhile, in a dark location, the Nicktoon Cadets were just waking up after having been beamed aboard a large ship. "Where are we?" Yuki wondered. A pink light almost blinded her when she suddenly, realized they were behind pink energy bars and in the ship's brig.
She looks around and finds she's the last one to wake up, as Junior whimpered at a corner, Twitchy and Kida were sitting down, and Crash was screaming, "Get us outta here! Y'all here me! Get us out, or else-" He slams both his fists onto the pink bars which zap him and hurls him backward. Yuki rushed over to him and helped him up.
"What is going on here?" Yuki demanded to know. "Who's done this to us?"
"That would be me," a familiar voice said from a large figure. The figure seems in so the Cadets can get a closer view and discover…it was the Junkman.
"You?!" Crash asked in anger. "I thought we beat your butt."
"Yes, you did," the Junkman explained, "So now I want payback! I was humiliated to be beaten by the likes of you! Especially him!" he pointed at Junior who yelped and pulled his hat down to cover his face.
"And just what are you planning to do?" Yuki asked with a glare. "Kill us with your rancid breath?"
"Actually, I was thinking that kidnapping you would pay off and make me a fortune."
"You're gonna sell us?" Kida asked, "Um FYI, we're not junk or even made of metal."
"Crashhasametalplateinhisnogginafteranaccidentwhenhewasseven," Twitchy pointed out.
The Junkman chuckled, "I'll give you two options. One: you will be sold as gladiators to fight to the death in the Aresian Empire..."
"Oh! Oh!" Crash raised his hand, "Fight as gladiators! I wanna be a gladiator!"
"Two: sold as slaves where you will do lifelong labor for the Eurysthen Race."
"Uh no," Crash frowned, "We don't want that."
"And if you refuse either choice, I'll place you in the airlock to be blasted into space!"
"Oh! Oh!" Crash said excited, "Blasted into space! It's WAY better than bein' gladiators!"
"You do realize that if we get blasted into space, we'll suffocate and die." Yuki pointed out in a dull tone.
"Oh," Crash said, looked nervous. "But the 'blastin' into space' part did sound cool."
"So, what's it gonna be, you small waste of life-forms." the Junkman asked, waiting for their answer.
Kida turned to the cowering Junior and pushed him forward. "You're the leader, Junior. Tell the Junkman that we won't stand for this."
As Junior stood in front of the group, his knees tremble as he shivers in fright, "Um...we don't really like those choices, Mr. Junkman, sir. Maybe if you can...let us go home."
The Junkman just laughed. "Nice leader you have there. You all would've been better off with flushmogs from the planet Mexolac."
As Junior slumped over while the others frowned in disappointment, the Junkman added, "Anyway, your time's up. As much as I would've liked selling the rat's fur coat and the sponges as cleaning products, I'm just gonna dump you all into space so you won't bother me again."
When the Junkman left, Crash sat on the ground in disappointment. "Aw dang it. I wanted to be a gladiator."
"Will you forget about being a gladiator?" Yuki snapped. "We're all gonna be floating lifelessly in space any minute if we don't think of a way out of here."
"Well, leader, have any plans?" Twitchy asked Junior.
"My plan is to...sit and cry until it's all over!" Junior cried out as he held his knees and lied on the floor in a fetal position.
Everyone stared at him until Kida pointed out, "That's a horrible plan."
"That ain't how a leader should talk." Crash mentioned. "Jimmy and Darry would never come up with that kind of plan."
Junior became frantic as he stammered, "Uh...Uh...I DON'T WANNA BE LEADER ANYMORE!" he bellowed out. "IT'S TOO SCARY!"
"But I thought you liked bein' leader since Jimmy knew you would be good." Twitchy reminded.
"Jimmy never said anything about fighting scary bad guys." Junior pointed out as he cried. "Being leader is too hard and scary."
"But someone has to be leader," Crash mentioned and smiled, "And since I figured that out and Junior stepped down, guess I'm gonna be leader!"
But he was suddenly shoved by Kida. "Who said you get to be leader? If anyone deserves to be leader next, it should be me."
Then Twitchy shoves Kida aside, "Ishouldbeleadernext! Ishouldbeleadernext!"
Yuki groans as she rubs her forehead. Junior wipes the tears from his eyes and looks at the three fighting again. He realizes something as he stands up and yells, "QUIET!" The three froze and turn to Junior. "I'm still leader and I think Jimmy mentioned that the leader should pick who will be the nextest, so I get to decide!"
"Got it!" Crash saluted and whispered, "He's gonna pick me..."
"No, he's gonna pick me!" Kida yelled.
"He'sgonnapickmemeME!" Twitchy yelled as the three continued fighting once more.
"Hey! Hey! HEY!" Junior shouted, stopping their arguing again. "The one who I pick as the next leader is...Yuki!"
Yuki turned to him in surprise. "Me?! Wait, this is a mistake. I can't be leader again."
"Sure you can." Junior said with a positive smile.
"I thought you guys didn't like me being leader cuz you accused me of being bossy."
"But you are bossy!" Twitchy said until Kida smacks his head.
"What Twitch is saying is, you're a natural-born leader than all of us," Kida explained.
"Yeah! And she's got more experience than we all do!" Crash added.
"And you're always so brave and you always know just what to do." Junior pointed out. "That's why I think you're the bestest leader ever!"
Yuki looked at her friends but looked uncertain. "You really think so?"
"Whoever wants Yuki as leader again, say 'Aye'!" Junior raised his hand.
"Aye!" Kida shouted, raising her hand.
"Aye!" Crash cheered, raising his.
"Aye! Aye! Aye!" Twitchy also raised his hand.
Afterwards, Yuki smiled warmly and then gained a determined look. "In that case, my first order of business is to get us out of this cage and beat the Junkman to a pulp."
"So how are we gonna do that leader?" Kida wondered.
Yuki pondered over this and smiles, "I think I have an idea. Here's the plan..."
Soon afterward, the Junkman returns to the brig where the five Cadets stood up in front, having ditched their silly costumes. He turns off the pink energy barrier and bellowed, "So watersacks? Ready to be blasted into space for the rest of your miserable lives?"
"Oh, we're ready, Junkman," Yuki nodded, "But before you kill us, let us present an offering that can be of use to you." She and her friends bowed as Yuki hands out what appears to be a small hand grenade.
"What is this?" The Junkman wondered as he took the device. "Some sort of Earth friendship toy or something?"
"Now!" Yuki peeped to the other as they held their breath and covered their noses. The Junkman wondered what was going on when the grenade lights up and explodes releasing a foul odor even the Junkman could not stand.
The Cadets ran past him and out of the brig. Kida coughed out loud, "What is that stench coming from?"
"Now Twitch!" Yuki commanded Twitchy, "Use your speed to find an escape pod so we can get outta here!" Twitchy nodded and snaps his fingers. Crash takes off his helmet and brings out a fresh soda with 200 percent sugar and caffeine. Crash shakes the can and opens it, releasing the fizz into Twitchy's mouth. Twitchy smacks his lips a bit and waited a moment. Suddenly, Twitchy's pupils dilate and body shook while his right eye began to twitch. He then jumped into the air with a cackle and took off at lightning fast speed.
Crash takes out a rope and lassos Twitchy around the waist so he can catch up with him. "See y'all on the other side!" he called out as he dashes away with Twitchy.
"Good, and we'll take care of him," Yuki said, taking out her Wrist Ray. From the stink bomb, the Junkman gets out of the brig to come across Yuki charging her Ray, Kida holding up her staff, and Junior cracking his knuckles.
"Well...look who finally learned how to be threatening." The Junkman said cynically. "Too bad it's all for nothing since you're still trapped on my ship."
Crash followed Twitchy as he sped all over the ship, looking for an exit. Twitchy comes to a halt to see a dead end. "Nope, that's not it," Crash said as Twitchy dashes toward another path.
They come across another dead end as Twitchy says, "That'snotiteither!"
Twitchy turns and makes another dash. They were passing by a room with a lot of junk when Crash yelled out, "H-Hold it!" Twitchy stops and Crash has him turn into the room. Crash marches over to find a small blue and yellow metallic bolt.
"What'sthat? I'veneverseenthatbefore!" Twitchy yelled at fast speed. "Thatdoesn'tlooklikeanescapepod!"
"I know it ain't." Crash responded. "But it sure looks cool and somethin' in my gut is tellin' me I should bring it along." but he spots something next to the area where he found the bolt. "And lookie here."
They see a large door leading to the inside of a pod that seemed big enough to hold all five of them. "Wefoundit! Wefoundit!" Twitchy cheered as he jumped up and down.
Yuki was firing rays from her weapon while the Junkman held a large plate of metal to deflect it. Kida charged up magic from her staff and charged forward landing a powerful attack that knocked the plate out of the Junkman's hands. "Oh great," the Junkman groaned until Junior grabbed his arm and flipped him over onto his back.
As he lay on the ground, Yuki ran up to him and pointed her wrist ray at him. However, one of the Junkman's hands grabs her ankle and he hangs her upside-down as he stands up. Yuki screamed as she tried to struggle away, but the Junkman held her tightly. "Alright, you brats." the Junkman yelled to the two remaining Cadets. "Drop your weapons and this girl will live to tell about her life."
Kida and Junior were unsure what to do while Yuki shouted, "Don't give up!" before the Junkman covered her mouth.
"Any last words, worthless piece of life-forms?" the Junkman laughs.
Kida and Junior look down until they look up. "Uh, I'd duck if I were you," the shaman-in-training pointed out.
"What?" the Junkman questioned until something fell on his head, which was actually Crash head-butting him without his helmet on and a strange 'clank' noise was heard.
Crash catches Yuki in his arms as the Junkman stumbled around dizzily from the impact and fell on the ground unconscious. Yuki looked at Crash strangely. "I thought you were a sponge."
"Twitchy wasn't lyin' when he said I have a metal plate in my head." Crash pointed out.
"Uh...Crash? You can put me down now."
Crash blushes and grinned sheepishly as he puts her down. Kida waves her staff as magical pink restraints wrapped around the unconscious Junkman. "That outta hold him down until we get outta here," Kida said.
"No problem," Crash said when the newly discovered escape pod crashed out of the walls and lands roughly beside the Cadets. The door opens, revealing Twitchy at the controls. "After you, leader," Crash offered.
Yuki smiled and walks inside. Crash dreamily was about to enter until Kida pushes him aside, "Ladies first." She hops inside, followed by Junior, and Crash is the last to get in as the escape pod floats up and escapes the Junkman's ship.
At HQ, the SquarePants kids and Marie were trying to stabilize SpongeTron together, where Allie thought gluing his parts and sticking it to the right place would work. Allie glued the last piece, the antenna, and splats it on top of SpongeTron's head. "So how do you feel?"
SpongeTron stood still in place with an uncomfortable look until he replied, "Sticky."
"You guys weren't playing arts and crafts without us were you?" a voice called out. The kids turn to see Tammy back in HQ after her club meeting is finished. "Sorry I was late," Tammy explained, "I had to wait for Tommy's detention to be over."
"My hand feels cramped." Tommy complained walking over as he shook out his right hand. "I had to write 'I will not pull pranks' over and over again fifty times."
As Tommy clasps his hand out and in, Darry comes out still in his gym uniform and still sweaty. "Wow Dar, y'all look beat," Dolly noticed.
"And really sweaty," Marie added, "Were you in a sauna or something?"
Darry panted heavily and explained, "I just finished Coach Baxter's afterschool class. I had to do 50 push-ups, sit-ups, pull-ups... I didn't think it would end!"
Darry then collapsed onto a nearby chair while SpongeTron mentioned, "Well, you guys have no idea what I've been through today."
"Relax, SpongeTron." Allie assured. "We fixed you up, remember?" she pats the robot on the back, only for him to immediately crumble to pieces as soon as she touches him. "Oops."
Suddenly, the Cadets arrive in a hurry as they frantically look all over the room. "Hey, guys," Darry greeted when Junior lifts him up to look under the chair, putting him down and rushing back. "What are you doing?"
Yuki started to sweat when she states, "Y-You haven't seen Max around, have you?"
"No, we just got here." Tammy answered. "Why? Isn't he supposed to be here?"
The Cadets look at each other uneasily when they hear a loud, "Goo!" they look down to see Max smiled as he sits on the floor.
"Maxie!" Junior smiled as he lifts him up, "You're alright! But how did you get here?"
"He came with me," a stern voice says. The kids look up to an angered Jimmy. "I was heading back to HQ when I discovered Max at the park without any parental supervision."
The Cadets bow their heads when Junior gave Max to Jimmy and confessed, "I'm sorry, Jimmy. I took Max without your permission because... I didn't think leaders needed permission to do whatever they want."
Jimmy glared at Junior when Crash backed up, "But y'all don't have to worry about him bein' leader anymore! Cuz Yuki's our leader again! And she's doing a bang-up job than Junior."
"No kidding. Yuki has the leadership skills after all," Jimmy mentioned.
The Cadets stood still for a moment when Kida realized, "Wait, so you KNEW Junior would be a terrible leader all this time?!"
"Of course I did." Jimmy easily answered. "Do you really think that I would cast someone of Junior's age and naivety to hold the reigns of command?" he then turned to Junior and added, "No offense."
"None taken," Junior raised his hands, accepting his apology.
However, the rest of the Cadets were still flabbergasted by all this. "But..." Yuki stammered. "Then why did you..."
"I wanted you guys to figure out which one of you have the traits and qualities of becoming a leader to command this team," Jimmy explained, "Which looks like you all just did."
Junior, Twitchy, Crash, and Kida smiled and look toward Yuki. "I guess I was always the leader of the Cadets after all."
"And she has the sass to do it!" Crash pumped a fist in the air until Kida smacks his helmet.
This caused the bolt they found earlier to fall out of his helmet and roll on the ground toward the dismembered robot. "My stabilizer bolt!" the robot's head cried out. "That's it!"
Allie picked up the small bolt and wonders, "So how is this gonna help?" Suddenly, the bolt glowed brightly along with SpongeTron's parts. They swirl around and assembled together back into SpongeTron's original structure.
"I'm me again!" SpongeTron said, hugging himself.
"Guess that problem is solved," Jimmy said proudly and asked the Cadets, "So how was the patrol?"
Yuki shrugs, "It's nothing we can't handle. Right guys?"
"Right," the other Cadets gave a thumbs up.
Yuki sighs and says, "And since the main gang is here, we won't be patrolling for the rest of the day, right Dar? Dar?" she turns to see Darry asleep all of a sudden due to a tired day of gym.
Jimmy walks over and looks at Tommy, who waves his wrist from pain only for it to come back. "I don't think Tommy can use his trigger finger, sir," Tammy noted.
"Hmm...two Nicktoons are out," Jimmy analyzed, "Can you and SpongeTron handle patrol or should we let the Cadets continue?"
"I guess I can go back to my fan-club if the Cadets don't mind patrolling. Is that alright?" Tammy asked the Cadets.
Yuki, Crash, Twitchy, Kida, and Junior stare, look at each other, and grinned. "We'd be honored," Yuki said as they saluted. Tammy smiles and runs out of HQ to go back to her fan-club.
"We're Nicktoons again!" Junior shouted in joy. "Can we dress up again and sing our theme song?"
"I'd have to ask my fellow Cadets first," Yuki said, treating her teammates equally, "What do you think guys?"
"NO!" Crash, Kida, and Twitchy shouted all together. Junior frowned until Crash patted him on the back as the Cadets exit HQ for more patrolling.
As SpongeTron watched them leave, he wondered out loud, "I wonder who among them they have named second-in-command?"
"One thing at a time, SpongeTron." Jimmy assured. "One thing at a time."
Jimmy walks away to put Max down for a nap. SpongeTron shrugs when someone grabs something from his body, causing him to fall apart. As SpongeTron's head tumbles over, Marie holds up the stabilizer bolt and says, "So that's what happens if I pull this out."
Buster and the triplets watch as his parts scatter and SpongeTron helplessly tries to lift his head up, "Um…some help here guys?"
Dolly ignored him having another idea, "Hey! Wanna hide his parts and find 'em all over again?"
"Yeah!" Sally, Allie, and Marie all cheered, while Buster smiled, liking the idea as well.
SpongeTron watched in horror as everyone gathers his parts and runs off, finding places to hide them. "Guys, wait!" he called out as he bounced his head off toward the direction they left it. "I need those! Come on, guys, this isn't funny! Guys! GUYS!"
The End
Now that the Nicktoon Cadets have their teamwork down, are they ready to be real Nicktoons now? Please review what you think and stick around for the next story "The Great Zappy Case".
