Try to be best
'cause you're only a man
and a man's gotta' learn to take it
try to believe
when the going gets rough
that you gotta hang tough to make it
History repeats itself
try and you'll succeed
never doubt that you're the one
and you can have your dreams!
You're the Best Around: The Karate Kid
"My Friends..." Said Burma "We will soon be landing in First Earth...Or...Maybe Third Earth...I'm not qite sure at this point...If your ears start to feel funny I can provide chewing gum."
"Thanks Burma." Marzipan said "But I think we're good."
"Rest assured my Herd and Crew..." Matoaka said "...I will provide you another story of the Great Humanimals of the Past but...Later...At the moment I want you to remember Thomas Lupine's Tale...And the lesson it provided."
"Just so we know for sure..." Ichabod said "...Thomas Lupine is a Wolf isn't he? I know his last name literally means 'Of relating to wolves' but I also know Lupine is also the name of a pretty flower."
"Oh!" Matoaka said "I didn't mention he was a Wolf-Man? I guess it is exactly because he was one of those Humanimals whose surname directly relates to his species it felt redundant to mention he was a Wolf-Man."
"We figured he probobly was..." Ichabod said "...However he could have the slight possibility of being a wolf spider."
Matoaka laughed a neighing laugh "Of course, of course!" She giggled "You are as much a naturalist as me, Ichabod! Oh! That reminds me!"
Matoaka turned to Edward Green. "One of the Humanimal Spirits I spoke to was one who knew your ancestor the founding King of Viola Strierra, Alan Green."
"You mean..." Edward said "...His own personal slave?"
"Not his slave..." Matoaka said "...A free wild Humanimal who was Alan Green's Friend."
Edward blinked unsure if what he just heard was real.
"Four thousand years ago..." Matoaka said "...During the the Great Rush for Humanity to claim as many Planets as possible...Sometimes circumstances in those wild times caused individaul Humans and Humanimals to become friends...Even during Slavery's Heyday...Alan Green a fugitive from a Poltical Coup...And David Buckthorn...A Brown Rat Humanimal who had been captured after venturing from his underground territory...It is much more complicated than that..."
She pulled something from her bag.
"Many years ago...David wrote down his adventures with Alan Green and the book was collected by the Angels and placed in the Fabuland Library...David requested I check out this book and give it to you Edward." She handed the book to the former Wrangler Prince "David said he has been watching you from Heaven...And you remind him so much of Alan."
As Edward clasped the book in his hands...He felt his eyes start to get a bit misty "I had no idea..." He said
"Of course Alan could never admit to any Human he had been friends with a Rat." Matoaka said "But during those Wild days he managed to make sure he never got brain scrubbed...Keeping himself too busy taming the wild planet of Viola Strierra."
Edward quickly wiped his eyes "Thanks Captain!" He quickly said
When the Flying Boat landed Marzipan turned to Burma. "You know...Earth is pretty much safe these days...Would you like to come over sometime?"
"Oh wow! Really?" The Black Cat-Girl mewed "I haven't taken a vaccation because I didn't know any place that would be safe...I mean Fabuland is beautiful but I've been longing to be somewhere more...Lively..."
Come to greet them was Rory. "I've come to guide you safely to our current hangout."
Matoaka simply smiled and touched noses with the young Deer-Man
"Lead us Prince Rory..." Maoaka "You no longer need be King."
Leonardo took this as a sign to hand her back her crown
Matoaka's triumphant Return she had more then merely her herd waiting for her...While she had been meditating...She had contacted Superman...Actually during her time in Fabuland she had learned to meditate specifically to communicate with Superman...As you can't call or email anyone from Fabuland and can only send letters by Flying Boat which is a bit of a hassel. Anyway the Justice League arrived at Kayla's House before Matoaka arrived...Mikey was struggling to keep his drool in his mouth.
Bob ran out and nuzzled his Beloved Captain "Captain! I had this vistion last night!"
"Can it wait five minutes?" Matoaka asked quietly "For a believe Superman has an announcment..."
Superman smiled "I've been comunicating telepathically with Matoaka these past few days...And we've 'spokan' about many things...The Justace League had a meeting with the Concil of Elder Mages and we came to an agreement...Our Dimenstion can no longer remain isloated! Isolating ourselves in the first place was a grave error! It was a sign of both our Leaders' hubris and cowardance!"
Superman turned to Belladonna "Belladonna Starchild." He said "You have truly found your Soulmate in another Dimenstion...And while we can't issue either of you a band of Fairy Gold...We also can't keep you apart for the rest of your lives...You can marry...But...This is gonna be a complex comprimise...You still have to remain residents of your home dimenstion but you are both free to visit each other as much as you are able...And I know both Turtles and Dragons live for a very long time..."
"Oh...My..." Belladonna gasped "...You mean it? Really?"
Superman nodded.
Quick as lightning, Belladonna grabbed Don and clutching him tightly to her chest, she rocketed into the sky! As she clutched him while loop-de-looping in the sky she sang this to him
"Two lives have begun now
Two hearts become one now
One passion, one dream
One thing forever true
I love you!"
And with that she kissed his mouth passionatly...As Belladonna's frosty breath flowed through him...In that near orgasmic moment...Don had a moment ofpure clarity...And realized something he had not realized before...
As Belladonna slowly floated back down to Earth. She placed Donatello down...However...Don was still spinning from the loop-de-loops...
"Don..." Leo approached his brother slowly
Don was incredibly dizzy...Wobbling from foot to foot and giggling "Dizzy...Centrifugal..." Don finally fell tumbling into the grass, he didn't mind though...He simply lay in the cool grass and giggled.
"I think she broke Donny." Mikey said to Leo
Fight 'til you drop
never stop
can't give up
Til you reach the top (FIGHT!)
you're the best in town (FIGHT!)
Listen to that sound
A little bit of all you got
Can never bring you down
