Greetings from SeekerMeeker.
Spoilers in effect for anyone who has yet to watch the episode "True Colors."
I had to write this. I had to.
It will be revised for quality, but this is just pure fan passion.

Chapter 1: Welcome Home
An hour later...
"Home," Anne said.
"Home?!" three frogs gasped, as they looked around.
To the residents of Los Angeles, it was another day as usual. A traffic jam crowded a highway, with cars honking and sirens blaring in the background.
"Umm," the family in the car stammered.
Anne looked. She realized that when they got teleported, they ended up on the hood of a random family's car.
"Oops," Anne said. "Hi there, I am sorry to...teleport here?"
"Well," the man, who appeared to be the dad, replied. "Might if you get off our car?"
"Sorry!" Anne suddenly yelled, grabbing all three Plantars, including Frobo's remains in her backpack, and ran.
"Where are we going?!" Sprig shouted, as Anne ran between the cars, honking at not her, but at each other.
"Home!" Anne replied.
10 minutes later...
"I am sorry if you all are shocked," Anne said.
Now that they were able to finally take a break, the realization sank in. Anne sat under a bridge, letting the frogs speak up.
"Anne!" Sprig yelled, looking around the place. "This is your home! Oh boy! So many huge buildings! I have never seen anything like this, not even in Newtopia!"
"Sprig!" Polly spoke up, standing a little wobbly on her new legs, which she got only a few minutes ago. "You should know that we're NOT in Amphibia anymore!"
Sprig then looked at his sister, then gasped.
"What?!" he cried. "But what happened to..."
All four people were silent, as they finally had time to muse on what had transpired:
King Andrias showing his true nature, as a monster bent on world domination.
Sasha and Grime finally fighting with Anne and the Plantars.
And Marcy, who opened the portal and...
"The Calamity Box?" Polly inferred. "The only way back home? Wait, where is it?"
"Anne?" Sprig asked.
Anne sat down, and wept.
An hour later...
"Sorry guys," Anne said.
"No worries," Hop Pop said, as the Plantars hugged her.
It was too much to bear, but Anne finally managed to get her emotions out. Although she stopped crying, she was still very sad.
The Plantars did not need to say anything, because they all knew:
First, Sasha and Grime betrayed them, then King Andrias betrayed them. And then, nobody, not even Anne or Sprig, expected Marcy to reveal her deep, dark secret.
"So," Sprig said. "You know, speaking of-"
Grrr...
Sprig looked down at his stomach.
"Oh frog," Polly said. "After all that crazy drama, you being dropped from the floating palace, you're hungry?"
"Don't blame me!" Sprig said. "That was...really bad to think about."
Grrr...
Grrr...
"Uh oh," Polly gasped.
"Well," Hop Pop said. "I think we're ALL hungry."
Anne suddenly laughed.
"You know," she said. "That's what happened when I first met Sprig. My stomach growled."
"Well," Hop Pop said. "Now that we're done at least crying out eyes out, what's next?"
Ring...
A musical tone suddenly interrupted the somber mood.
"Wow!" the Plantars gasped, jumping away.
"The phone's alive!" Sprig declared.
"It's making music?!" Hop Pop noted.
"It must be going crazy!" Polly yelled. "Or it's one of those magic-things on Earth?!"
"It is," Anne said, shaking.
On it, a single word echoed:
SWEET HOME.
Her fingers shook, as she managed to put her thumb to the green button.
Click.
Anne slowly put the phone to her ear.
"H-h-hello?" she gasped.
"Hon-hon?!" two voices boomed from the phone. To the Plantars, it was shocking, but to Anne, it was music to her ears.
"Where are you?!" the female voice gasped. "We've been looking for you!"
"We're waiting for you!" the male voice declared. "We've been waiting for your birthday party! You're SIX hours late!"
The Plantars' jaws dropped.
"Six hours?" Anne gasped.
"You're in big trouble now," the female voice started to shout. "We've planned this for...honey? Sweetheart? You OK?"
Anne sobbed, sobbed for the first time in a long time. Sobbing not because she lost someone, as she thought she did with Sprig, but it was happy sobbing.
"No hard feelings," the male voice spoke. "Please come home, and explain for what happened."
"Be safe home," the female voice spoke. "And you're welcome."
Click.
Anne sat down again, and wept.
I just had to. I just had to write this.
It's basically my interpretation of the first few seconds of the Season 3 Intro.
Therefore, this is intentionally designed to be used by other fan writers. Just like "Agony of a New Revolt" and "Young Revolt, Old Magic," this fanfic is designed to allow for others to use it.
However, this fanfic will be a collection of short stories, using the Season 3 Intro as a major source of inspiration.
Good luck out there, and happy reading.
