Episode 47: Ink-dependence

FEBRUARY 6th, 2019

~Goldenrod City from Pokémon: Gold/ Silver starts to play~

The cafeteria at the Smasher's Palace was fairly full, for it was time for breakfast. While Master Hand and Chef Kawasaki were busy making lots of food and other inhabitants of the palace were eating, Shadow the hedgehog, Rouge the Bat, and E-123 Omega were eating at the table closest to the counter, with Shadow holding his new adopted Dark Chao, Terios.

"Here comes the train," Shadow cooed to his little Chao, slowly bringing a spoon full of cereal towards Terios's mouth. When Terios took a bite, he not only swallowed all of the cereal pieces, but even bit off part of the spoon and munched on that as well. Shadow and Rouge stared at Terios in shock, while Omega just gave a usual blank stare.

"SO LITTLE TERIOS CAN EAT METAL. THIS INFORMATION COULD PROVE USEFUL IN DEFEATING EGGMAN," Omega said before writing his observations down in a notebook.

~Goldenrod City stops~

"What do you mean I can't have this "beer" stuff?!" a certain voice complained. The Team Dark trio turned towards the counter, where Agent Four was standing at one end, and Master Hand at the other.

~Goomba Village from Paper Mario starts to play~

"Agent Four, you're not old enough to have alcohol!" Master Hand informed the blue boy Inkling.

"I'm nineteen, darn it!" Agent Four cursed. That's when Wario, Waluigi, and Anna poked their heads into the cafeteria from the connecting hallway.

"You need to be twenty-one to drink alcohol."

"Oh," Agent Four uttered. "B-but still! I can handle it! I'm still mature enough, even if I'm not old enough!"

"Agent Four, you need to understand. Alcohol is very danger-"

"Let me handle this," Chef Kawasaki said to Master Hand. The maniacal orange chef placed a martini glass filled with a purple alcohol in front of the Inkling's face. "Here. You can have the most potent wine we have." Agent Four smiled, but before he could grab the glass, Master Hand swiped it and crushed it.

"KAWASAKI! Are you out of your mind?! Do you realize how berserk Agent Four could get while drunk on that stuff?!" Master Hand demanded to know.

"Yes," Kawasaki simply answered.

~Goomba Village stops as Final Boss - Part 2 from Sonic Colors starts~

Suddenly, the world around Chef Kawasaki seemed to transform into nothing but a pitch black void filled with flames. Even his eyes seemingly became nothing but flames. Yet he still smiled, and if anything, his smile only grew larger at the sight of the flames around him.

~Final Boss - Part 2 stops~

But the dark void, as well as the flames within the void and his eyes, were just Kawasaki's imagination. Master Hand glared at the mad chef the best glare of confusion a hand could give while Agent Four angrily walked away.

"I'm sick and tired of not being treated as the adult I am," the blue Inkling groaned.

"I think you get treated like that because you aren't capable of many things adults are," Shadow calmly replied while Agent Four passed by.

"I am too capable of adult things!" Agent Four argued. "Such as... such as... uh..."

"Such as thinking for yourself!" Wario stated, standing next to his Inkling friend alongside Waluigi and Anna.

"Yeah, thinking for myself! I can do that!" Shadow, Rouge, Omega, and Terios gave Agent Four a blank stare before continuing their breakfast. "Oh, who am I kidding... they're right. I can't do so many adult things."

"Waa! Nonsense! Tell me just how many adult things you're incapable of!" Wario said.

"Cooking, cleaning, paying taxes, managing money..." Agent Four rambled.

"And romance," Anna added.

"Hey! I'm actually capable of that one!"

"Waa, if you're really not able to do a lot of adult things, then we'll have to teach you how to do them," Waluigi suggested.

~Greenhorn Forest from Wario World starts to play~

"Really?! You guy's would do that for me?!" Agent Four squealed with joy.

"Of course we will! And since we're friends, we'll teach you for free!" Wario responded.

"Even if it hurts us a little to do it for free," Anna remarked, wincing a little bit while smiling.

"You're gonna be the most independent Inkling that's ever lived!" Waluigi claimed.

"You'll be able to live by yourself once this tournament's over!" Wario added.

"And nothing will be able to stop you!" Crazy Hand claimed as he and Falco appeared.

~Greenhorn Forest stops~

"Crazy! Did you make that large hole in the wall?!" Master Hand questioned as some rubble fell out of the hole that was behind Falco and Crazy.

"No," Crazy claimed.

"Yes," Shadow honestly answered.

"Darn it!" the giant hand of craziness cursed.

~Title Screen (Big Brain Academy) from Super Smash Bros. Brawl starts to play~

Wario, Waluigi, Falco, Crazy, Anna, and Agent Four were in the Smasher's Palace's basement, where they had set up several kitchen appliances.

"Waa! First, we're gonna teach you had to cook your own food!" Wario exclaimed.

"Cool! What do I need to do first?" Agent Four asked.

"You're gonna need to get the pizza out of the freezer," Waluigi answered. Agent Four walked over towards the fridge of the basement, but realized just how high up the freezer part of the fridge really was. Agent Four walked away from the fridge and marched up the stairs to leave the basement.

XxXx

~Title Screen (Big Brain Academy) stops as Cat from Minecraft starts~

Steve was sitting out in the snowy Smash Grounds, hosting his free item stand there again. Agent Four approached the stand, and the blocky human handed over several Minecraft ladders without either of the two saying a word. Agent Four started flopping on the ground while constantly switching between his squid and humanoid forms, and Steve responded by constantly bending over and standing straight.

XxXx

~Cat stops as Title Screen (Big Brain Academy) starts again~

Agent Four came back down into the basement, where Wario was oddly missing. However, neither him nor his other friends acknowledged Wario's disappearance, so Agent Four just slapped some of the Minecraft ladders onto the lower half of the basement fridge. Agent Four then climbed up, swung the freezer door open, and snagged the pizza. The blue Inkling slammed the freezer door shut, causing the icicles that formed on the freezer's ceiling to fall down, piercing through all of the food and the frozen Goomba, the latter splitting into numerous pieces upon impalement, trapped in the mechanical winter wonderland.

"Alright! Now you need to put the pizza down and get the oven started by setting it to four-hundred and twenty degrees!" Anna happily informed her friend.

"Got it!" Agent Four responded. He placed the frozen pizza down on the basement table and then set the oven to the right temperature.

"Waa, have any of you guys seen Wario?" Waluigi finally asked.

"Yeah, he was just here a minute ago..." Anna added.

"I haven't seen him," Falco answered, merely looking right up at the ceiling.

~Title Screen (Big Brain Academy) stops again~

"Oooh! I think we went in the oven to warm himself up until Agent Four came back!" Crazy excitedly stated.

~On Fire by Gregor Narholz starts~

"WAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAA!" Wario screeched from within the oven. The yellow plumber flew out of the oven, surrounded by flames, and started flying around the single light bulb that hang from the ceiling.

"OH GODS! WARIO, STOP, DROP, AND ROLL!" Anna cried out. Wario divebombed into the sink, which was already filled with water. The water evaporated, but the water still stuck around long enough to put Wario out.

~On Fire stops~

"Ehhhhh... note to self... never try to stuff yourself into an oven..." Wario groaned. While everyone else got Wario out of the sink, Agent Four frowned, feeling upset at himself for what happened.

XxXx

~Heat by The Blue Hawaiians starts to play~

The gang of six, as well as Ariados, were in Wario, Waluigi, and Anna's bedroom. The bedroom was messier than usual, with stains all over the walls, trash on the floor, and Barney Gumble on Wario's bed, who let out a single large burp.

"Waa! We'll get you to be a good cleaner for sure!" Wario claimed.

"Yeah! All you need to do is suck up all the garbage with this vacuum thing we stole from lousy Luigi!" Waluigi added, handing Agent Four the Poltergust G-00.

"Wow! That sounds super easy to do!" Agent Four happily said. "How have I never done this before?"

"Because your mother never bothered to teach you how, I'm assuming," Anna answered.

"Well, I mean... yes. But who cares?! It's clean up time!" Agent Four held the nozzle of the Poltergust G-00 up into the sky before activating the special vacuum. Lots of garbage got sucked up right from where Agent Four stood, and even more got cleaned up while the blue Inkling started moving around. Agent Four even cleaned up the stains on the wall, although that came at the cost of the wallpaper that was stained getting ripped off, revealing a dark void filled with red, glowing eyes behind the wallpaper. Even demonic whispers crept out of the hole and into everyone's ears. However, the wallpaper regenerated, quickly fixing up the hole and silencing the whispers. The same situation repeated several times until only one stain remained on the wallpaper. Agent Four had the Poltergust rip the stained portion off, but instead of demonic eyes, this time Barney the dinosaur was in the void.

"Clean up, clean up, everybody, everywhere!" the purple dinosaur sang.

"Clean up, clean up, everybody do your share!" Barney Gumble sang along before slipping off of Wario's bed.

"Clean up, clean up, everybody, everywhere!" Agent Four repeated. The boy Inkling then sucked up Barney the dinosaur, though he only managed to get the purple dinosaur's head into the Poltergust. Agent Four raced out of the room and all the way to the rooftop of the Smasher's Palace before he fired the purple dino far away from the Smash Grounds.

XxXx

~Heat stops as Lonely On The Beach by Jan Rap starts~

Isabelle was on a tropical beach far from the Smash Grounds, lounging on a beach chair while looking at her phone. The only others on the beach were Fred Flintstone and Barney Rubble, both of them sunbathing in the hot sun.

"This short vacation's going so well!" Isabelle chirped. "No morons to ruin my day, my popularity's still rising, and I even got to subtly get my Twitter followers to go after people I don't like so I don't have to risk my popularity dropping! This time, there's no way my day can go bad!" That's when Barney the dinosaur fell from the sky and down onto Isabelle.

"Oh dear..." the purple dinosaur groaned, slowly getting off of Isabelle. Speaking of the female dog, she was completely flattened, and her phone was shattered into a million pieces.

XxXx

~Lonely On The Beach stops as Mii Plaza from Super Smash Bros. For 3DS/ Wii U starts~

"Clean up, clean up, everybody do your share!" Agent Four sang upon his return to the room. Right away, Agent Four got to work, sucking up every last piece of garbage in several seconds. The entire room sparkled, and the only thing that remained out of place was the eternally drunk Barney Gumble.

"Waa haa! Nice job!" Wario congratulated the boy Inkling.

"Yeah! This room hasn't been this clean since the first five seconds we've lived in here!" Waluigi added.

"Yep! And now there's only one thing left to take care of!" Agent Four stated.

~Mii Plaza stops~

Agent Four walked over to Wario's bed and managed to suck up Barney Gumble's feet. However, this caused the eternal drunk to drop his beer bottle, which rolled out of the room.

"MY BEER!" Mr. Gumble cried out.

~Outlaw! from Pokémon Mystery Dungeon: Explorers Of Time/ Darkness starts to play~

Barney rapidly crawled after his rolling beer, dragging Agent Four with him.

"WOAH!" Agent Four cried out once he was dragged out into the hall. The beer bottle kept rolling through the hall until it stopped, faced on of the windows leading to the outside world, charged up a Spin Dash, and broke through said window. The bottle safely landed and continued rolling around in the Smash Grounds.

"After him! We need to help him!" Falco heroically yelled, prompting him and the his remaining friends to chase after Agent Four.

"N-no, I can handle this by myself guys!" the blue Inkling claimed before Barney rushed through the broken window. "Wah! Look out below!"

"It's waa, not wah," Waluigi informed his falling blue buddy. Barney and Agent Four somehow landed safely and continued moving after the runaway beer bottle. The bottle passed by Steve's stand of Minecraft items, so when Barney dragged Agent Four by the stand, the boy Inkling tossed the Minecraft ladders back over.

"Here's your ladders baaaaaaaAAAACK!" Agent Four shrieked.

"I didn't need them back, but thanks!" Steve replied.

"Waa! Steve! You got anything to get that yellow weirdo dragging our friend around back here?!" Wario asked Steve.

"Absolutely!" The blocky human swiftly handed Wario a Minecraft fishing rod, which the yellow plumber swung so he could hook the back of Barney's shirt from afar. Wario tugged as hard as he could, at least stopping the drunk man from running away any further. Waluigi even hugged Wario from behind for extra strength.

"No! I refuse to let my beer get away!" Barney yelled. The chaotic drunk started foaming at the mouth, his eyes gained red swirls, and his arms started moving so fast that they became a circular blur. Barney rushed ahead, dragging Agent Four again, as well as Wario and Waluigi this time.

"WaaaaaaaAAAAAAAAA!" Both of the Wario Bros. screeched.

"WAAAAAAAAAAAAAAA!" Agent Four repeated.

"Hey, you got it right this time. Nice job," Waluigi calmly said to his Inkling pal.

"Thanks." A green Warp Pipe arose out of the ground near the gates. A drunken Snake leaped out of the Warp Pipe, landing face-first onto the dirt, and then Duck Hunt Dog poked his head out of the green pipe.

"Hic! We're back! A-and I'm ready for a... HIC! An hour long masturbation session!" Snake drunkenly uttered. The legendary soldier didn't even bother trying to get up, opting to drag himself ahead with just his arms instead. Duck Hunt Dog worryingly looked at his drunken friend, though the dog's attention was grabbed by the rolling beer bottle once it rolled onto Snake. Somehow, the bottle rolled up the side of the Warp Pipe and dove right in.

"BEEEEEER! COME BAAAAAACK!" the rabid Barney growled, catching DHD's attention.

"Oh good grief!" Duck Hunt groaned. Barney leaped up and dove into the Warp Pipe, dragging Duck Hunt Dog, Agent Four, Wario, and Waluigi with him.

"Hey! Hic!" Snake growled, quickly getting up. "No one tackles my old, old, old... HIC! Best friend like that!" Snake did two front flips to move back over and into the Warp Pipe.

~Outlaw! stops~

While Falco, Crazy, Anna, and Ariados raced over towards the Warp Pipe, Lucario came out of the Smasher's Palace.

"Did I actually miss something for once?" Lucario asked the nearby Yoshi.

XxXx

~Disco Train from Donkey Kong Country 2: Diddy's Kong-Quest starts to play~

The Raveyard was filled to the brim with party goers as usual. Chibi Naoto was doing her godly dance on stage, with the usual five Gengar mimicking her. A Vigoroth was flying all over the dome, occasionally crashing into the walls, but swiftly going right back to flying around, and Claude was standing upright on the ground, and dizzy from all the alcohol he had drank. Even Weegee was there, sitting at the Raveyard's bar.

"Sure is nice to take a break from plotting how to kill my mortal enemies with drinks that apparently can't even get me drunk," Weegee remarked. "Oi, waiter. I need another martini over here."

"Were all of the other martini's I served you not good enough?" the bartender Dratini asked.

"No," Weegee answered, taking a quick glance at the large pile of martini glasses that sat on the counter. Dratini shook his head and grabbed another martini glass with his tail.

~Disco Train stops as Never Let Up! from Mario & Luigi: Dream Team starts~

Suddenly, the entire building shook, causing Dratini to accidentally fling the martini glass into Weegee's face.

"Oh, so now you want to be a dick, huh?!" the evil meme growled while the glass shards and alcohol dripped down from his face. Before Dratini could throw back a rude response of his own, Weegee leaped over the table, and the two started brawling. Meanwhile, Barney's beer bottle popped out of the Warp Pipe that sat in the bark corner of the Raveyard and started rolling towards the center. A curious Shy Guy approached the Warp Pipe before said pipe suddenly shook. The Shy Guy slowly peered into the pipe, only to scream the very instant he peered in.

"OUT OF MY WAY!" Barney Gumble roared, leaping out of the Warp Pipe. Barney's roar caught Weegee's attention, letting him notice Wario, Waluigi, and Agent Four getting dragged along with Mr. Gumble, as well as Duck Hunt Dog clinging to the drunk's head.

"AAAAAAAAAA- Oh hi Weeegee! AAAAAAAAAAAAAA!" Agent Four said.

"Oh for the love of fuck. That's it, I'm out of this hellhole," Weegee groaned. The evil meme teleported away from Raveyard, freeing the Dratini he was just choking. The beer bottle rolled onto the stage and zigzagged into the five Gengar, phasing right through them.

"MOVE! I NEED MY BEER!" Barney roared at the Gengar, who blissfully ignored him. Just like the bottle, Barney zigzagged through the five Gengar and phased through them. When Agent Four and Duck Hunt Dog came out of the last Gengar, the poor duo started coughing from the toxic gases that the Shadow Pokémon were made of, even though Barney and the Wario Bros. came out perfectly fine.

~Never Let Up! stops~

The five Gengar and Chibi Naoto stopped dancing and stared at the insane drunk and his trio of screaming victims once he dragged them offstage.

"Looks like it's that time of the day again..." one of the Gengar groaned.

"Bleh... welp, time to do what we do best when troublemakers like this pop up in our dome..." another Gengar menacingly snarled, somehow cracking his boneless fingers. The five Gengar and Chibi Naoto continued staring where Barney and his screaming victims once were for a few seconds.

~Never Let Up! starts again~

But then the six dancers started dancing again, doing a quicker version of Chibi Naoto's dance this time. Barney's beer bottle rolled through the crowd, with only a few of the Raveyard's patrons noticing the bottle on its merry way. However, many more of the huddled up patrons noticed Barney on his warpath after his beer. The aware ones ran out of Barney's way, while the unaware ones got trampled. An unaware Dry Bones even got their head ripped off by Barney's mouth while Barney trampled over the rest of the dead Koopa's skeleton body. Barney even crushed the Dry Bones's skull with his mouth.

"MMM... CALCIUM! PART OF A BALANCED BREAKFAST!" the crazed drunk screeched while catching up to his beloved beer. Within seconds, he finally caught the bottle with one hand.

~Never Let Up! stops again as Haha! Yes, It Will Take Some Getting Used To! from Fire Emblem: Awakening starts~

"Oh beer!" Barney exclaimed as he reverted to normal. "Never run away from me like that again! I can't think straight without you!" Mr. Gumble started kissing his darling bottle all over, and then gave it a hug.

~Haha! Yes, It Will Take Some Getting Used To! stops~

"Hic! There you are, vile villain!" Snake drunkenly growled at the oblivious Barney. "You... HIC! You must be punished for what you d-d-did to my best friend! Agent... hic! Four! Suck hiiiiiim up!"

"Nyes!" the Inkling replied. Agent Four reactivated the Poltergust G-00, snapping Barney back into reality.

"No! Please, I beg you!" Barney cried out, slowly getting dragged in even further.

"You... y-you don't deserve mercy..." Snake snarled. The soldier and Wario worked together to shove Barney deeper into the Poltergust.

"NOOOOOOO!" Barney struggled, but in the end, he got sucked in all the way into the dark depths of the Poltergust. "Oh hey dad, hey grand dad. Why're you guys stuck in here?"

XxXx

The gang were back in the Smasher's Palace's basement, with all of the kitchen appliances gone.

"Waa. Our last few lessons may have... not gone so well," Wario started. The fat plumber's words caused Agent Four to frown in disappointment for himself. "BUT! We still have one last lesson for the time being! The lesson of... how to manage your money!"

"Our expertise!" Anna added.

"Yeah! So get your notebooks out, because this one is very important!" Waluigi stated. Agent Four and even Crazy pulled out notebooks and pencils.

"Wario, you want to do the honors?" Anna asked.

"Of course! Now, the best way to manage your money in your adult life is to..."

~Big Bowser Battle from Mario Party 5 starts to play~

"... HOARD ALL OF YOUR CASH LIKE A DRAGON!" Wario exclaimed. "Spend as little of it as possible!"

"Hide your cash in the dark depths of a uninhabitable cave!" Waluigi added.

"And viciously fend off those who intend you snatch even a single piece of your valuable treasures!" Wario continued.

"Bite them! Strangle them! Keep them pinned down as you deal blow after blow to them!" Waluigi yelled.

"And the most important tool to slay those who dare lay their dirty hands onto your treasures! Your fiery breath!" Wario pulled out the Dinner Blaster and aimed it into his own mouth. He pulled the trigger, and while a burning plate of spaghetti did go into his mouth, he felt no pain from it. Seconds later, the yellow weirdo breathed out flames.

"Cool! Are you writing this stuff down, Crazy?" Agent Four asked.

"Uh..." Crazy uttered. The giant hand stared at his notebook, which was just filled with a drawing of Wario, Waluigi, Falco, Crazy, and Zigzagoon in knight's armor, facing off against a Dragonite.

~Big Bowser Battle stops~

"But, uh, yeah... just keep your money safe and only spend what you need to," Anna stated. "Well, that, and we're gonna have to teach you all of the stuff that you're going to need to pay for as an adult, but we'll get to that eventually.

"Don't worry! I already have a means of protecting my money like a dragon!" Agent Four claimed before running off.

One Minute Later...

Wario, Waluigi, Falco, Crazy, Anna, and Ariados were all just sitting down around the table in the basement when Agent Four returned with a Druddigon right behind him.

"I'll protect my money like a dragon with a literal dragon!" the Inkling exclaimed.

"Drud!" the Druddigon happily roared.

"Waa, where'd you get that thing?" Waluigi asked.

"You know... I actually don't know. But whatever!" Agent Four threw out a bundle of dollars towards one of the corners of the basement. "Alright new dragon buddy of mine! Guard those bucks and make sure no one gets to them!"

"Drud!" Druddigon roared again. The Cave Pokémon rushed over towards the corner where the money laid and turned around, giving everyone a vicious glare.

"Wonderful! Now we can take a break from lessons and go get something to eat!" Wario stated.

"Oh, hold on, I think I'm gonna need a bit of that money if I wanna buy some food," Agent Four replied. The blue Inkling gleefully approached Druddigon and his money.

~Fall Down To The Scream from F-Zero X starts to play~

When Agent Four got close enough, Druddigon used the move Dragon Tail to send the Inkling flying into the wall on the other side of the basement. Once stuck on the wall, Agent Four transformed into his squid form before slowly sliding down the wall.

"Waa! What's the big idea, lizard face?!" Waluigi growled while he, Wario, and Anna got into battle stances.

"Druddigon!" Druddgion growled.

"I think she's saying that she's just doing as she was told," Crazy answered. "Either that, or she's saying that she's just a violent beast."

"Oh yeah?! Well if she wants to be a violent beast, then we'll treat her how a violent beast should be treated!" Wario yelled. The fat maniac rushed ahead while doing his iconic Shoulder Bash. While his attack connected with Druddgion, her Rough Skin ability activated, causing Wario to take damage upon contact. With Wario stunned from the Rough Skin damage, Druddigon used Dragon Tail again to knock him into the exact same spot Agent Four crashed into.

"That's it! Nobody hurts my boyfriend or my friends on my watch!" Anna growled. Druddigon looked down, realizing she was standing on a watch. Anna started firing arrows from her Illusory Yumi while Druddigon was distracted, but the dragon noticed the incoming arrows just in time to evade them. Druddigon charged towards the gang, and while Anna kept slinging arrows, Falco, Crazy, and Ariados charged towards Druddigon in retaliation. Ariados used Lunge to try and slam into Druddigon's face, but the dragon smacked Ariados to the side, whereas both Falco and Crazy's tackles missed Druddigon entirely. Anna managed to land a few arrows onto Druddgion while the Cave Pokémon, but Druddigon shrugged them off. Eventually, Druddigon came face-to-face with Anna, prompting the redhead merchant to to do a flip kick to knock Druddigon away. While Anna successfully landed her kick, it barely even stunned Druddigon, and it caused Rough Skin to activate again, stunning Anna long enough for Druddigon to use the move Power-Up Punch to boost her attack stat while upon dishing out an uppercut onto Anna.

~Fall Down To The Scream stops as Love Is In The Air from Yoshi's Story starts~

Meanwhile, right above the spot in the basement where Anna and Druddigon were dueling was Lucario, sitting in a chair in the palace's giant living room. In Lucario's ears were ear buds, letting him listen to music while blocking out the noises from below.

"Today's been a pretty peaceful day," Lucario said to himself. "And what little chaos did happen so far, I managed to avoid it! I can't believe my luck today! Oh well, I suppose I should head back to my room to find something to read." The Aura Pokémon got off of the chair and happily walked out of the living room and up the stairs leading to the next floor.

~Love Is In The Air stops as Boss: Chaos Ver. 6 from Sonic Adventure starts~

That's when Anna was shot up through the floor of the living room before falling back down, landing on the chair Lucario was just sitting in

"How's one little dragon so strong?!" the redhead merchant groaned. Anna swiftly got back up right as Druddigon leaped out from the hole Anna made. Agent Four leaped into the living room right after and threw a Splat Bomb, which exploded right into the back of Druddigon's head. The Cave Pokémon turned around, allowing the boy Inkling to drench Druddigon's face with blue ink from his Splattershot.

"Druddigon!" Druddigon cried out, blinded from the ink. The dragon ran around the room, flailing her arms, before eventually breaking through the wall, ending up outside.

"Looks like you need a water bucket to wash that gunk off!" Steve said as Druddingon flailed by his stand. The hostile Pokémon nodded and stopped, waiting for the water to drench her. However, she was facing away from Steve. Waluigi arrived and smacked her head with his tennis racket, but aside from very minor damage, all that did was spin Druddigon around to face Steve. The Minecraft man splashed Minecraft water out from a Minecraft bucket, not only cleansing Druddigon's face, but also creating a blocky pool of water that both Druddigon and Waluigi were halfways submerged in.

"Drud!" Druddigon happily roared, giving Steve a thumbs up before chasing after Waluigi... by sluggishly bobbing up and down in the Minecraft water.

"You're going down, ugly dragon! Waa!" Waluigi angrily growled, approaching Druddigon by also bobbing up and down in the blocky pool. While the two take their time getting close to each other despite how small the pool was, Wario, Falco, Crazy, Anna, Agent Four, Zigzagoon, and Ariados stood in place, watching the two approaching each other.

"Alright, that's enough standing in place just to stare at this weird stuff while unfitting music plays," Wario said.

"Yeah! Now answer us this, weird dragon I can't even remember where and how I met you!" Agent Four shouted. "Why are you attacking me?! Why are you so strong?!"

~Boss: Chaos Ver. 6 stops~

"And why is that water so jagged?!" Crazy squealed, spazzing a bit in fear of the Minecraft puddle while Falco stared at the blocky water.

"That's just Minecraft water," Steve answered.

"Oh yeah," Crazy replied, instantly ceasing his spasms. Falco dipped his foot into the Minecraft puddle and pulled it back out, revealing that his foot somehow wasn't wet. "OK but then why is the water not getting Falco we-"

"Drud!" Druddigon growled.

"OK, so the dragon thing said that it only attacked us because "that's what it was told to do", but that doesn't answer my quest-" Crazy informed his pals.

"Aw, ya gotta be squidding me..." Agent Four groaned.

"Heh, good one," Sans the skeleton said, appearing in the Minecraft water out of nowhere.

"I meant to guard my money from everyone BUT me," Agent Four informed Druddigon.

~Woe Is Me by Richard Myhill starts to play~

A single tear dripped from Druddigon's eye, even though Druddigon's happy expression remained.

"FAILURE!" the Super Smash Bros. For 3DS/ Wii U announcer's voice boomed from nowhere.

~Woe Is Me stops~

"Well, I guess that solves that," Anna replied.

~Stack Of Leis by Kapono Beamer starts~

"Yeah, but... that just means I failed again..." Agent Four groaned. "It just looks like I'm always doomed to fail at these adult things..."

"Waa, buddy, listen. Yes, none of our lessons went as planned, but that wasn't your fault," Waluigi assured Agent Four.

"Yeah, it was more on outside circumstances than anything else," Anna added.

"Yep, like me deciding to warm myself up in the oven," Wario said.

"Or that weird drunk who couldn't just accept his fate and get vacuumed up," Falco added.

"I'm still in here!" Barney Gumble cried out from within the Poltergust G-00 while Luigi was strolling by, wearing his special vacuum on his back.

"Or that Druddigon weirdo being dumb and not realizing that you were the one person allowed near your money!" Crazy replied. Druddigon, still smiling yet still with the first tear on its face, let out another tear from its other eye.

~Stack Of Leis stops~

"Yeah... I guess those weren't my fault," Agent Four muttered.

"And I'm not going to give up on you just because of a few failures that weren't your fault," Anna responded.

"And neither will we!" Falco cheered.

"Yeah!" Wario, Waluigi, and Crazy added.

"Uh... I don't think you guys should spend as much time helping Agent Four out because... uh... who'll get us lots of money then?!" Anna nervously said.

"Waa! Fair point!" Wario exclaimed. "C'mon guys! Let's go make mountains of dough!"

"Woo! Money mountains to ski down and crash on!" Crazy cheered while spazzing out a bit.

"Phew! As much as I love Wario and all of those guys, they're a little too..." Anna muttered as Wario, Waluigi, Falco, Crazy, Zigzagoon, and Ariados walked away.

"Stupid to help teach me?" Agent Four finished for the redhead.

"Uh... yeah..."

"Dang. Oh well, at least you'll teach me all the things my mother and my schools never bothered too!"

"Yep! Uh... wait, your schools didn't teach you anything either?" Anna worryingly asked.

XxXx

~Crocodile Cacophony from Donkey Kong Country 2: Diddy's Kong-Quest starts to play~

Inkopolis Square, as well as a large amount of the rest of Inkopolis, was up in flames, with many Inkling running around, panicking. Callie, Marie, Pearl, and Marina were trying to put out the flames with an extremely long hose, but the long hose flailed around once it started gushing out water, with the four idols only clinging on to the chaotic hose.

"I NEVER GOT TO LEARN HOW TO COOK FOOD!" one young adult Inkling cried out, standing in front of the remains of the microwave that started the mass fire.

"SCHOOL NEVER TAUGHT ME HOW TO PAY TAXES!" another young adult Inkling yelled.

"I learned how to write in cursive!" yet another young adult Inkling happily said, spraying the words "Marina is my waifu" on the wall. However, the poor Inkling got sprayed by the uncontrollable hose, thus she melted into nothingness. Above most of the chaos, watching down from the rooftops were Abyss, Missile, and Chef Kawasaki.
