Crossover legends.
The moon Rose High as the sounds of the Amazon jungle filled the night air, Creatures made their noises in the night as a light began to show in the trees, The sound of Men marching along the path was audible as well as that of Horseback, In the Trees and Vines, Aztec warriors marched through the Night as they followed their leader to the edge of the Jungle, Where to Figures stood waiting at the shore.
The Warriors leader dismounted and met the two Men.
Frollo: Ah good, you received my message.
Cortez: I did so a month ago Sir.
Frollo: How has your mission in this region fared? Have you obtained what I asked?
Cortez: We could not find Eldorado, But we obtained something more… Suitable to your liking.
Ratcliff: No witchcraft I hope.
Cortez: Not quite, But it may be of some interest.
Two of Cortez's men staggered forward carrying a chest, They plopped it down in front of Frollo, and Ratcliff and a third man opened the chest with a key.
Frollo knelt down in front of the chest and examined the contents.
Frollo: Ah, So it's true… The fabled treasure of Rangos Al Cur.
Cortez: Plucked from his dark tomb, The Trove he kept in these very jungles.
Ratcliff: So it is witchcraft?
Cortez: There may have been a curse or Two, I perhaps lost a few Men to them But we managed to get it anyway.
Frollo: Regardless, You did very well Cortez, And now that these so-called curses are lifted, This reassurance can be used as a Powerful source of Income for our Alliance, We may even be able to Procure New Allies.
Cortez: Have you any in mind?
Frollo: I have heard of two, But perhaps we'll see for ourselves what they're capable of.
Frollo turned to the Horizon with his hands clasped behind his back.
Meanwhile.
Mabel: Oh come on! I almost had that!
Dipper, Mabel, and Wendy were in the Living room playing Video games, It was a Saturday morning just after Breakfast.
Dipper: Mabel we've been playing Star Wars Battlefront 2 a hundred times already.
Wendy: If you wanna actually win in Heroes vs Villains try playing as a different character, Besides Jango Fett.
Mabel: Screw that, Jango Fett's Practically the Best character in the game! He can fly for Christ's sake!
Dipper: So can Boba Fett.
Wendy: Why are we playing on an old system anyway?
Mabel: Uh… I have no idea.
Just then the doorbell rang.
Wendy: I'll get it.
Wendy went to the door and opened it to find Stan there.
Stan: Hey Wendy.
Wendy: Oh Hi Stan, I wasn't expecting you, Uh your dad didn't follow you this time right?
Stan: Nope, I locked him in the Car.
Meanwhile.
Randy scratched the windows desperately!
Randy: I'M GONNA PEA!
Meanwhile.
Wendy: Oh wow.
Stan: So can I come in?
Wendy: Of course.
Stan entered the room as Wendy closed the door behind him, Suddenly there was another knock on the door.
Wendy: Stan you said No one followed you!
Stan: I swear I left my Dad in the Car.
Wendy opened the door again, But it wasn't Randy, It was Ashley Johnson.
Ashley: Oh Hello, Is Dipper there?
Wendy: Oh god, Not her…
Dipper and Mabel had been mostly listening to Stan and Wendy's conversation, But weren't really interested, Dipper, however, perked up when Ashley's voice was heard.
Dipper: Oh uh, Hey Ashley.
Mabel: Uh oh.
Ashley came over to Dipper.
Ashley: Hey Dipper, Just wanted to stop by, see how you were doing.
Dipper: I'm… Doing fine, Just fine, How are you?
Ashley giggled.
Ashley: Just fine, I heard Trader Mags was in town today, Wanna come with and see her?
Dipper hesitated for a moment.
Dipper: I guess.
Mabel: You guess?
Ashley: Okay then, let's go.
And Ashley took his hand and led him out of the House, Leaving Mabel, Wendy, and Stan behind.
Wendy: God, Why does he go along with that girl?
Mabel: I know, Ever since she drugged him they've practically just… Well normally I'd be into match-making but I just don't like this…
Stan: Trader Mags is coming?
Meanwhile.
Trader Mags was a traveling magpie, who sold her Wares, Particularly artifacts and goods of all kinds across the lands, Crossover town was a frequent stop in her Travels, Second only the great tree of Ga'hoole, Everyone that could have gathered in the market place, Dipper and Ashley passed through the crowd to get a good view.
Ashley: So, you looking to find something off Trader Mags?
Dipper: Well, I was hoping to find a few books on the Paranormal, Maybe if she has a few new pens, I kinda bit down the last few for my Journal.
Just then a Wobbling sound was heard in the sky.
Mole: It's the carol!
And a cheer went up. Mags was approaching and her caroling threaded through the streets. The warble of magpies was known as a carol and was like no other birdsong in the world. He heard the townsfolk now, swooping down through to the street corner where Mags would set up her wares. She came with several assistants, carrying baskets of her latest "collection," as she called them.
Mags looked nothing like Dipper had expected. Her feathers were mostly black and the sleekest, blackest black he had ever seen, but she did have some streaks of white feathers. Her tail was immensely long and, And from what he heard, her black tail feathers had a greenish gloss in the Moonlight. She wore a jaunty bandanna on her head. At once a line quickly formed for Mags, Pip pirrup was the first in line.
Pip: Oh jolly well dandy! A new pair of shoes for my cold little feet.
The shoes actually were kinda crappy.
Trader Mags: More where these came from, my dears!
Her squawk almost knocked Pip off his feet, As Pip moved along, Ashley and Dipper made their way to the front of the line, They found themselves right behind Mr. Garrison.
Trader Mags: I told you before Garrison, We don't have any Poontang!
Mr. Garrison: But how is Mr. Hatt gonna get off tonight?
Mr. Hatt: Yeah, I need to get my jack off!
Trader Mags: Oh for heaven's sake, If you're not looking for anything move along!
Mr. Garrison huffed and sauntered off, Allowing Ashley and Dipper to the front.
Trader Mags: Aw, what a lovely pair, And what can I do for you my dears?
Ashley: Just lookin for anything you might have.
Trader Mags: Hmm, Depends on what you want really.
Dipper: I'm looking for maybe… a few new penns for my Journal.
Trader Mags: Aw Penns, We have plenty of those, Bubbles? Bubbles!
A smaller Magpie fluttered up at Mags command.
Bubbles: Yes, Ma'am.
Trader Mags: Where are them Penns we keeps around?
Bubbles: Right ere Marm.
Trader Mags took the Penns and Handed them to Dipper.
Trader Mags: And what are ye lookin for lass?
Ashley: Just a little something for myself, Perhaps a few artifacts from Ancient times.
Trader Mags: Ah, Lookin into the past are we now?
Ashley: You could say that.
Trader Mags: Penny for a bit more details?
Ashley seemed to look like she was thinking for a moment then spoke.
Ashley: Maybe I'll save it for later, When I next come around.
Trader Mags: Oh will you? I won't be around long lass, A day or two at the most before I'm off, You might have to make it soon.
Ashley: Okay, I'll remember quickly.
And soon Dipper and Ashley headed off.
Dipper: Ashley what were you asking Mags for?
Ashley: Don't worry about it, It's just a little something for myself.
Later.
A few hours later, the line had subsided and Mags was in her tent, searching through her wares when Ashley came in.
Trader mags: Ah, So there you are, And just in time.
Ashley: Yeah, I wanted to catch you before tomorrow.
Trader Mags: So you say your lookin for… Artifacts?
Ashley smiled.
Ashley: Just a little something, I'm interested in looking for, Provided you have it.
Mags looked inquisitive at the girl.
Trader mags: Hmm, Something secret, you don't want your boyfriend knowing.
Ashley: You could say that.
Trader Mags: What is it?
Ashley paced the room.
Ashley: I'm looking for something from the ancient days, Say pre-world war 1.
Trager mags: Pre… world war 1?
Ashley: Yeah, something from the Dark nation.
Mags gasped.
Trader Mags: I… Well, I can't be too certain I have that sort of thing.
Ashley: You sure? I would have thought a world-known collector like yourself would have picked up a thing or two.
Trader Mags: Well… Perhaps I have… What's it to you?
Ashley: I'm just looking for something that can allow me to… handle things.
Trader Mags: I'm afraid you're not being exactly clear.
Ashley: Okay, look I was just wondering you know, If you knew did have any treasures from the Dark nation.
Mags looked cautiously back at one of her packs, then she hobbled over to one and pulled out a small rust-covered coin, Encased in a small plastic bag.
Trader Mags: I found this on the shores off of India, It was taken from a treasure trove belonging to one of the old dark nation kings not too long ago, Whoever tried to steal from it managed to get only this coin, God knows how.
Ashley took up the coin and examined it.
Ashley: And you're sure it's from the dark nation.
Trader Mags: I wouldn't be keeping this in a bag if it weren't.
Ashley looked at the coin again.
Ashley: Almost sounds like this thing is still cursed.
Trader Mags: Well you never know I didn't… Exactly feel any curses, But better safe than sorry, I've just kept it in this sack just in case…
Ashley: What would happen if it was cursed?
Trader Mags: Well, there was a specific curse placed on this coin.
Ashley perked up interest.
Ashley: What kind exactly?
Trader Mags: It is a very forbidden magic child.
She took the Coin away from her and put it away.
Trader Mags: And I cannot sell this, Not at any price.
Ashley glared.
Meanwhile.
Back at the Testaburgers house, Wendy sat at her desk ranting while Stan mildly paid attention while playing with his phone.
Wendy: I just don't get it, Stan, Why is he suddenly with this girl? He's barely even interested in her.
Stan: Uh-huh.
Wendy: I mean seriously, He's starting to brainwash him and he barely knows it, Ever since that time with the restaurant, He's been following her like a brain dead puppy, It's ridiculous!
Stan: Yeah like this weird image Kenny sent me.
He held up his phone to show him giving Bunny ears to a Rabbit named Silver.
Wendy: Are you even taking this seriously Stan?
Stan: Wendy, Why is this such a big deal? If Dipper wants to be with her then just let him be happy.
Wendy: But Ashley is clearly untrustworthy, I swear, she had him drugged on a Young love Potion! She's brainwashing him! And my uncle's still going nuts about it! It's pure luck Jack managed to get the Antidote in him when he did.
Stan: So what are you going to do about it?
Wendy turned to the Window and sighed with her hands clasped behind her back.
Wendy: The only thing we can do Stan, We have to keep him from falling in love even further.
Stan: How are we supposed to do that?
Meanwhile.
Frollo, Ratcliff, and Cortez were in the Ships cabin examining the treasure, Frollo bit on one of the coins and examined it.
Frollo: Ah, Black iron Coppers, The old coinage of the Dark nation indeed, Ugh, disgusting deviants.
Ratcliff: What are we to do with it exactly? I doubt this will actually be worth anything.
Cortez: Legend tells this trove contains a secret power to it, Known only to King Ragnos himself, He placed a curse on this trove, A curse that will affect anyone that dared to spend on it or take it, If one could overcome the curse, they could use it to pass a curse on another individual or maybe a whole group of them.
Ratcliff snorted.
Ratcliff: Hmm, And who would believe such superstition?
Frollo: I do not care for the witchcraft, the promise of wealth from it will attract more allies, And that's all I care about.
Cortez: Will we be using it to our advantage sir?
Frollo snarled.
Frollo: Use witchcraft? Never!
Cortez: Because there is more, The curse of the reassure has one weakness, If it touches a body of water for an indefinite period of time the curse will be broken forever, I suggest we toss it into the Sea.
Frollo: No, That will not do Either.
Ratcliff: So are we supposed to exactly do with it if we won't use it? Donate it to a museum?
Frollo: I don't really know at the Moment but perhaps…
Suddenly a loud bang was heard from the outside! A soldier came bursting into the Captain's Quarters.
Soldier: Judge! We're under attack!
Ratcliff: What?! Good god man from who!?
Frollo raced to the outside of the ship and saw a large Red Ship sailing right towards them.
Frollo: Pirates.
Meanwhile.
Wendy peered through the bush she was hiding in, Watching Dipper as he forcefully walked with Ashley though the Park, She cackled to herself as she aimed a blow dart at Ashley, And fired a small pointy stick at her, Somehow it ended up hitting Dipper instead, He let out a yelp, Ashley then took his hand and pulled the Stick out much to Wendy's shock and Charging.
Wendy: What the Hell that was supposed to hit him!
Then the stick ended up hitting her in the arm After Ashley flicked it back at her.
Later.
Stan and Wendy sat in a tree and watch Dipper and Ashley down below them, Wendy whispered something in Stan's ear and pulled out a Spider, It slipped down her hand with its web and made its way towards Dipper and Ashley, Suddenly it stopped and saw a female Spider, Instantly smitten with each other they weaved massive webs together right behind Dipper and Ashley.
Stan: Well that's cute.
Wendy just groaned as she was tangled in giant webs.
Later.
As Dipper and Ashley walked down the path in the woods, Stan and Wendy ran up and threw a beehive at Ashley, Unfortunately, the Bee's didn't go with it and they didn't realize it until they heard the buzzing behind them, Than they screamed and ran as the Bee's chased after them.
Later… For the fourth time.
Wendy, Still covered in bee stings, Gave a thumbs up to Stan as she held an end of the Rope, Stan gave a thumbs-up back as they waited for Dipper and Ashley to come, As they passed they suddenly tripped on the rope and went tumbling down the hill, This dragged Stan and Wendy along with them as they went flying straight into a Treehouse.
Owl: Well I'll say, Someone's pasted the Marsh and Testaburgers children on my door.
Stan and Wendy slid down the door with a Groan.
Meanwhile.
The Red ship drew up alongside Frollo's ship, Casting boarding hooks across the way that hooked onto the deck and Prevented the ship from escaping, Cortez and Ratcliff emerged from the Cabin and saw this.
Cortez: Prepare for Battle men!
Troops scrambled together, Arming themselves and taking Battle Positions in defense against the Pirates, Frollo and Ratcliff were escorted back to the Cabin but stayed outside, Soon a rowdy mob of Pirates suddenly emerged from the Ship, Armed with Swords, Cutlasses, Knives, and Pistols, chief among them, Their Captain, He had long black thick mullet like hair that reached his shoulders, Eyebrows that matched his hair, A thin handlebar mustache (With the Angles upward sharply.) He wore a Red coat trimmed with yellow, And orange band around her left shoulder to his waist, and where his left hand should have been was a Silver Hook.
Captain Hook: Avast ye Bilge Rats! We're comin aboard!
At Hooks' order, The pirates lept aboard, waving their weapons and bellowing war cries, Cortex drew his sword and bellowed to his men. "Battle Positions!"
Cortez's troops drew out their weapons and clashed with the Pirates, A furious row went up as Troops and Pirates hacked, slashed, and shot at each other, Inside the Cabin, Frollo And Ratcliff quickly stored away the treasure.
Ratcliff: God save us, What do we do?!
Frollo: Shut up, fool! I will not sit here sniveling like a coward!
He drew a sword and marched to the door, Only to find it burst Open by Captain Hook, who had his own sword drawn.
Captain Hook: Ah, Stepping up to fight are ya, Ye Cringing swab?
Frollo: You dare to lay siege to my vessel?!
Ratcliff: Well technically this isn't really your vessel-
Frollo: Shut up, You sir, dare to come against justice! Who do you think you are?
Captain hook: Who am I? Why I'm Captain James Hook!
Frollo: Captain Hook? Hmm, The name fits.
Captain Hook: Why thank you, Wait, was that slander?
Frollo: What do you want?
Captain Hook: What do you think? I'm a pirate! I'm robbing your ship of all it's valuables! It's what we do!
Frollo: If you imagine you can just rob a vessel from Judge Claude Frollo, You are-
Suddenly the ship was rocked by a crashing sound.
Ratcliff: What was that?
Cortez then burst in.
Cortez: We've got more trouble!
Frollo, Ratcliff, Cortez and Hook rushed out to find the fighting had stopped and something was rising out of the water below.
Meanwhile.
Stan groaned as Valerie put an Icepack on his head, Wendy lay on the bed with him, groaning as she was warped in bandages, Had a black eye, and had her left arm in a salve, Harrold and Mark stood nearby.
Valerie: Geez, You kids took something out there.
Stan: More lumps, please?
Stan was a little woozy, Okay scratch that completely woozy.
Harold: What exactly happened to you kids?
Wendy: You wouldn't understand… Okay, we were trying to break up Dipper and his Girlfriend.
Mark: Did they work?
Harrold: Mark!
Wendy: No…
Marl: Well fuck.
Valerie: Language!
Harrold: Mark Seriously, The boy just found some love in his life, Why would you wanna ruin that?
Wendy: Why would…? She's brainwashing him guys, How can you call that love?!
Valerie: Brainwashing? Oh yeah, You mean that whole young love poison incident from about a month ago?
Mark: Yes!
Harrold: Well if he's being brainwashed why haven't you done anything to stop it?
Mark: I've tried too, But I haven't been able to speak with him, but every time I do she shows up and weasels off with him!
Flashback #1.
(Dipper is writing down an essay in his room when Mark comes in.)
Mark: Dipper we need to-
(Suddenly gets launched through the roof by a Hidden springboard just as Ashley shows up.)
Dipper: Huh?
Ashley: Hi Dipper.
Flashback #2.
(Dipper is walking through the park writing in his journal, When Mark comes running up to him.)
Mark: Dipper we need to-
(Mark then gets stampeded by a herd of Rhinos just as Ashley shows up.)
Dipper: Huh?
Ashley: Hi Dipper.
Flashback #3.
(Dipper is at the Library, When a beaten and bruised Mark drags himself up to him and is about to say something when he closes his mouth and makes sure nothing back happens to him, He is then wacked away by a random wrecking ball! Just as Ashley appears.)
Dipper: Huh?
Ashley: Hi Dipper.
Flashback ends.
Mark: It took two weeks for all my jones to heal properly.
Harrold: So you've been letting this little girl take advantage of him?
Mark: Of course not! We just had three flashbacks about it!
Harrold: Then what else are we supposed to do?
Mark: I don't know!
Valerie: Look she hasn't really done anything horrible to him yet maybe we should just talk to her parents and work this out.
Mark thought for a moment with consideration.
Mark: Well… I suppose we could...
Just then there was a knock at the door.
Mark: Hang on I'll get that.
He went over to the door and opened it, Revealing Trader Mags standing there.
Mark: Traders Mags?
Trader Mags: Lieutenant Testaburger, I was looking for you.
She hobbled inside as Mark shut the door.
Mark: What are you doing here?
Trader Mags: I've needed to speak to you Mark, It's urgent! Where's Jack?
Valerie: What is it?
Trader Mags: One of my wares, Aware I've been keeping to myself for safekeeping, Has been stolen!
Wendy: What?
Harrold: By who?
Trader Mags: I… I don't know, They knocked me out when I wasn't looking and took something, Something extremely dangerous!
Mark: Mags, what could possibly- UGK!
Mark suddenly clutched his chest as he staggered back shaking.
Harrold: Mark!
Valerie: Oh my god!
Wendy: Uncle Mark!
Mark toppled over as he writhed on the floor, Contorting this way and that as he croaked frantically, Harrold was at his side instantly, Than Mabel came in a box.
Mabel: Hey guys check it out I-WHAT THE HECK!?
Harrold: Call 911!
Valerie ran to the Kitchen to do just that, Mark's skin started to a low shade of green as she did.
Wendy: What's Happening to him?!
Meanwhile.
Both sides, Pirates and Soldiers stared completely thunderstruck by the large tentacles that rose from the sea.
Ratcliff: What is that thang?!
Captain Hook: Swoggle me Eyes, Cetus! I've faced this Demon before! And I'll-
Frollo suddenly stopped him.
Frollo: No wait!
A tentacle suddenly slammed down on the deck with a crash, Caught several men and threw them off the ship, A large splintered dent was left on the ship.
Frollo: Prepare to fire Cannons!
Several troops rushed below deck and prepared to Arm the Cannons, Loading the Cannonballs into them and aiming them right at Cetus exposed Center, One by one they lit the fuses to the Canons at they fired causing minimal damage to Ceuts as he back off for a bit before mustering up the strength to attack again, This time going straight for the Hull.
Cetus rammed himself into it rupturing the Hull and flooding the whole bottom deck with several of Frollo and Cortezs men, those that survived rushed to the Surface as the ship began to sink, On the Top deck everyone shook as the
Soldier: The Hull's flooded! We can't salvage it!
Ratcliff: We must abandon ship!
Cortez: We can't! We don't have enough lifeboats!
Captain Hook spoke up.
Captain Hook: Well, I may have a lifeboat.
He casually gestured to his ship.
Meanwhile.
Mark writhed in the hospital bed, his wrists were handcuffed to prevent his arms from flailing everywhere as Harrold, Valorie, Mabel, Wendy, Stan, Mags, Jack, and Mac stood over him, Dr. Doctor came into the room with a clipboard
Mac: What in god's name happened to him?
Dr. Doctor: We're not entirely sure, His condition just seems to be growing exponentially worse by the minute.
Mark jolted up suddenly and let out a withered yell as his skin got more greener, His teeth seemed to be changing with him, Growing a tad bit more sharper than normal human teeth, Mabel quickly hid behind Valorie while Wendy clutched Stan, Jack stared at Mark in fear.
Harrold: He'll be alright… Right?
Jack: No, No I've seen this kind of thing before, In the dark wars, And they don't end well, Unless...
He suddenly glared at Mags then suddenly grabbed her by the throat and slammed her against a wall, Much to everyone's shock.
Jack: Where did you get a Dark nation coin!?
Mags: I- I found it off the coast of India, during my travels…
Flashback.
Trader Mags: I had just set off from a nearby village, when I was attacked by a band of Hairbrained chimps on the coast, One of them stepped on something and… changed, Almost like… What Mark has become, It scared the other Monkeys off, with their Comrade chasing them, I looked to see what had caused it and found it lying in the sand, An old Dark nation coin… I don't know how it got there, But I decided to hold onto it for the safety of others.
Flashback.
Jack released her as she finished her story.
Trader Mags: I knew it was the cause of what had just happened, So I decided to keep it for myself, So that no others wouldn't be affected, But now…
Before she could continue, Dipper suddenly came into the room.
Dipper: What happened?
Mabel: Where have you been?
Dipper: I was at the library when I heard-
As Dipper spoke Ashley then came into the room.
Ashley: Is the Leautent alright?
Traders Mags eyes suddenly flared up upon seeing the girl.
Trader Mags: You! This is your doing isn't it?
Ashley: Huh?!
Dipper: What?
Mags pointed an accusing wing at Ashley.
Trader Mags: She did it! She must have the coin! She came into my tent yesterday inquiring about it and the next thing you know it's gone!
Ashley: Whoa, Whoa, Whoa, Wait just a minute! You can't just go around-
Trader Mags: I told you it was not to-
They talked over each other so loudly, That it partially drowned out Mark's shrieks, Dipper and to cut in between them.
Dipper: Enough! Both of you!
Ashley: How and why would I take it and use it on my boyfriend's own Uncle!?
Dipper: Uh… Not sure about that…
Ashley: I'm sorry, What?
Dipper suddenly squirmed
Dipper: W-w-what I meant was-
Mabel suddenly burst right up to her.
Mabel: You stop dragging my Brother into this.
Ashley: Well Sorry If I feel attacked right now.
Mark suddenly yelled louder as the cuffs on his bed strained more and more as he pulled his weight on them, Harrold and Jack quickly came to his side.
Harrold: Mark, Mark! It's all right, You'll be alright.
Mark's Pupils went slit and his Right Gauntlet Transformed into his Red Sword, With a yell he slashed upward, Breaking his right cuff, Everyone jumped back with a yell as he slashed about until he freed himself by slashing the other restraints, They tried to get close but he kept warding them back with constant blade slashes.
Jack: Everyone get back!
Mark ran out of the room, Charing through the Halls, Yelling and screaming as he went knocking aside and scaring others in his path.
Jack: After him!
He, Dipper, Mabel, Ashley, Stan, Wendy, Harold, Valorie, Mac and Trader Mags quickly followed after him, Mark rushed to the end of the Hall and Jumped straight through a window, He plummeted to the ground and landed cat like on all fours than ran off, Screaming and roaring as he went.
The others came to the window and watched him run off helplessly.
Mac: Well great, This just got worse.
Wendy: What the Hell have you done?!
Ashley: I-I didn't do anything! Honest.
Stan: Oh yeah?! Then why is Mark now a Raging green freak!
Ashley: It's not Gamma radiation!
Dipper: Enough! What the hell is going on and why are you guys suddenly blaming Ashley for this?!
Mabel: Didn't you hear what Trader Mgas said?! And plus, Dipper, She tried to-
Ashley: Okay fine! You want the truth fine! I heard about the Coin from someone, And I wanted to see for myself, But I didn't steal it! Or use the Curse! I swear, I left after she denied it to me.
Trader Mags: Then who attacked me last night and stole it?!
Valorie: Who even knew you had a Dark nation coin?
Ashley: I don't know some Guy in a green suit. He mentioned it to me when I was at his shop.
Jack suddenly perked up and stopped her Mid-sentence.
Jack: This… Man in a green suit, What was his hair Color?
Ashley: Red… With a small Mustache, Which was also Red.
Jack: And what was he selling?
Ashley: Puppets.
Jack's eyes went wide.
Dipper: Jack? Are you alright?
Jack went to the Broken window and stared out of it.
Jack: No… And neither will Mark, If we don't get him back now.
Meanwhile.
Everyone hurried across the gang planks to the Jolly roger, Pirate and Soldiers alike scrambled aboard, Frollo, Ratcliff, Cortez and Hook the last among them, Ratcliff had the Treasure with him, As Frollo had Ordered.
Captain Hook: Mr Smee! Prepare all battle stations! We'll show that Damn Kraken who truly rules the seas!
A short fat man with a large nose and Glasses scurried out from the Crows nest.
Mr Smee: Eye, Eye Cap'n! All hands on deck!
Pirates scrambled aboard deck, Aiming their Rifles and Guns on Cetus as he emerged from the sinking ship, Below them Canons were aimed right on Cetus and poised to fire on Hooks command.
Captain Hook: Don't fire until you see the white of his… You know what just fire already.
The Cannons fire in Unison all hitting their Mark on Cetus,It apparently hurt his so much that he clung to the ship for support and seemed to go right down with it.
Frollo, Ratcliff, Hook, Smee and Cortez peered over the side.
Frollo: Is it dead?
After a few moments, Nothing Happened.
Then Cetus burst from the Sea, Roaring a deathly cry of wrath.
Ratcliff: Guess not.
Meanwhile.
Mark roared as he shook Toad by the Throat.
Toad: GAHK! WHY ARE YOU DOING THIS! I ONLY SPOKE IN THE SEASON 2 PREMIERE!
Dipper: There he is!
Mark ran off down the Alleyway, Closely Followed by Dipper, Mabel, Stan, Wendy, Ashley, Jack, Harrold, Valorie, Mac and Mags.
He scarpered all around the block, Knocking past several people in a mad dash, With The others following closely behind.
Mabel: Where the heck is he going?
Jack: I don't know, But I think I might know who.
Mark ran until he came to an Unknown Building off of Sixth Avenue, It looked like a shop, With Puppets inside, Surprisingly he entered the Building as the others quickly hid behind some bushes and watched.
Valorie: Wait… The old Puppet shop?
Wendy: But… That's been shut down for years.
Jack: I know… So it really could be him.
Dipper: Jack who are you talking about?
Jack: You'll see… Mac, Get them all weapons.
Mac unpacked several spare blasters and Firearms and handed them to each other Group excluding Mags.
Valorie: Wait, Are you giving Firearms to Children?
Jack: Trust me, They'll need them.
He then drew his sword and walked forward.
Jack: C'mon, We have to hurry.
Soon they entered the Puppet shop, Following Jack's lead, The group quietly made their way inside, The shop was almost completely dark, The only light present was the one coming from the windows, Cobwebs and Dust coated the room, Puppets of Various kinds littered the Shelves, They almost seemed to be staring at them.
Stan: Why would the Lieutenant come here?
Jack: Because whoever placed that curse on him, Must also have the Coin used to curse him, It's drawn him hear.
?: Hmm, Hmm, Hmm, Hmm, Then you must have come to the right place.
Everyone turned and out front the Shadows stepped a man, He wore green Clothes, A yellow bow tie over white shirt and Collar, Complete with a Dark Green cape, his nose was pointy, His hair was Red as well as his Mustache, And right beside him was Mark.
?: I didn't think you would come immediately so soon though.
Jack: Puppetino!
Wendy: You know him?
Puppetino: Oh does he ever, And of course My old Friend Mark testaburger as well, I still remember when you thwarted my tribute in the past, Neither have I forgotten your generosity Trader.
Trader Mags eyes gasped.
Trader Mags: It was you! You knocked me out and took the coin!
Wendy: What? How did this guy know about the coin?
Puppetino: Oh yeah, I have my ways, And now that you're here You can all join your Kinsman and friend in my little tribute.
Jack: Your master will never have us!
Puppetino: We'll see, Get them!
At his Command, The Puppets slowly came to life, Jumped from the Shelves and came right at the gang, Jack immediately slashed the first tow that came near him, While the other fired upon them with their Guns, Puppetino led Mark to a back room away from the fighting.
Dipper fired on a puppet that jumped at him, Before a Second one pulled him down by the legs He kicked it away and rushed after Puppetino and Mark, Mabel whacked a puppet with her gun and Joined him, Leaving the others to deal with the rest.
Jack: Dipper, Mabel Wait!
A gang of Puppets all jumped on Jack nearly holding him down until Mac shit them all off.
Stan: What did that guy mean about "Tribute?"
Dipper and Mabel quietly snuck into the room where Puppetino and Mark were, The room was bare, Save for only a Table and a lit candle, Together Dipper and Mabel jumped from their hiding spots and aimed their guns at Puppetino.
Dipper: Give us back our Uncle.
Puppetino laughed.
Puppetino: Well, What spirited little tykes, You almost remind me of someone…
Mabel: Our Parents?
Puppetino: Parents… Hm, Well I don't exactly recall them, Do you master?
A rush of wind suddenly blew into the room and the light from the candle went out, And a Reddish glow filled the Room and with a blast of Yellow a large Creature appeared, Dressed in a robe like cloak filled with fire and Darkness, He had four arms, Yellow eyes and Pink skin, His head was demonic looking as he stared down at the Twins with Malice.
Dipper: J-Jargafar.
Emperor of the Night: No, Not Jargafar, I am beyond that one, Call me the Emperor of the Night, And soon you will all be in my Domain.
Dipper: What Domain?
Emperor of the Night: Prepare to find out!
Meanwhile.
Cetus Tentacles began to slowly Wrap themselves around the Jolly Roger as Everyone started to retreat below deck, All Except Frollo, Ratcliff, Cortez, Hook and Smee, Who managed to evade the Tentacles.
Ratcliff: That cursed beast has us! We're doomed!
Captain Hook: Blast it all, I never had a chance to get that Pesky Pan either!
Mr. Smee: There, There Cap'n.
Frollo then saw the Treasure on the ship and looked at the creature.
Frollo: We're not as hopeless as you all might think.
He then grabbed the chest made his way to where Cetus was and threw the chest his him, The Contents inside fell out, Some evan falling into his mouth, Cetus felt a great throbbing from within, And with a great wail he shuddered and plunged back into the sea, Never to rise again.
Meanwhile.
Dipper, Mabel and Mark were raised above the ground by an Unknown Force, Illuminating from the Emperor Of the night as a vortex surrounded them.
Emperor of the Night: Now shall you all become my slaves! HAHAHAHAHAHA!
?: Hey Freakshow!
The Emperor stopped for a moment than saw Ashley holding a cup of Water in her left hand and the Dark Nation coin in her right hand.
Emperor of the Night: What?
Ashley: Let go of my Boyfriend.
She then dropped the coin into the cup and it started to dissolve, Mark slowly but sure began to change, Back to his Normal self.
Emperor of the Night: What?! No!
Ashley then threw the cup and splashed it on the Candle, Which was keeping the Emperor's Physical Presence in this world, He quickly started to fade as the Candle was destroyed, Dipper, Mabel and Mark fell to the ground as this Happened.
Emperor of the Night: NO! NOOO!
And with a burst of light! He was gone.
Puppetino: NO! Why?! I thought we-!
But before he could finish, Mark suddenly punched him in the face, Knocking him out.
Jack and the others then burst into the Room.
Mac: What Happened?
Harrold: Mark!
Harrold went to Support his Brother as he stumbled a bit.
Mark: I'm fine, I'm fine… What Happened.
Mabel: That Puppetino guy cursed you with a Dark nation coin, We came to save you but then he Summoned some… Emperor guy and then.
Dipper: Ashley saved us…
Everyone was surprised.
Wendy: Her?
Ashley: Yeah.
Stan: She saved you guys?
Mabel: Uh…
Mark: Yeah…?
There was an Awkward silence.
Mac: Well uh… Guess we were wrong about you Ashley.
Trader Mags: You have our most Humblest Apologies, Mostly mine.
Ashley: Eh, Water under the bridge, And Dipper…
Dipper: Yeah?
Ashley suddenly graded Dipper and Pulled Him into a kiss, which he eventually sunk into.
Mabel: Aw… I still don't like it.
Mark: Too late for that now…
Meanwhile.

Cortez: We were just cost a valuable Prize Judge.
Frollo: Were we?
Captain Hook then came up to them.
Captain Hook: Well, Now that that business is settled, I suppose…
Cortex Suddenly drew his sword and Pointed it and Hook, Who Flinched, Frollo raised and hand and Spoke to Hook.
Frollo: You had the Audacity to attack my ship, And possibly kill me today.

Frollo: However, I feel we ought to be in your debt after that mess back there, So you may yourself two choices, Face justice for your crimes against my Faction.
Captain Hook: Or…?
Frollo: Or Join it, We could always use a good Admiral like yourself around the Sea's, So what say you? Captain James Hook, will you join us?
