Meanwhile, the group had returned to the hotel room.
"Okay, Maleficent is probably gonna come after us with a ton of bad guys," replied LJ. "That's why we need to fight fire with fire. Get a sweet training montage and gather our allies as well."
"Gather allies, huh?" Gaz replied. "You mean more than just us?"
"Oh, yeah," replied LJ. "If I know Maleficent, she likes to pull out all the stops. We are gonna be up to our nostrils in Disney villains here."
"Hmm... I guess we could do that," Gaz said. "I guess the question would be on where to start."
"Probably the Fudos," suggested Dil. "They seem to be everywhere."
"I guess that's a good point," Gaz replied. "LJ, Zofia, David. Go get your cousins."
"And I know just how to do it." Zofia said as she brought out a special communicator.
"Huh... Nice." David smirked as Zofia activated the communication device.
Akito and Emi were posing in front of Big Ben together, taking some pictures until Akito felt something go off.
"It's LJ, David, and Zofia," Akito told Emi as he checked his communicator. "This could be an emergency."
"Then we'd better get going," replied Emi. "And maybe bring some friends of our own."
"Right," Akito smiled. "Let's get ready."
Vincent and Jenny sat together by the Louvre as Oliver and Snow White played by their feet until Vincent took out his communicator.
"The Schwartzes need help." Vincent told his beloved.
Jenny nodded. "Let's gather our friends and get on over to help them." she replied.
"Right," Vincent said. "Hmm... I wonder what Estelle and Lee are doing?"
MEANWHILE...
Estelle and Lee were shown to be home in Southdale together, eating lunch until Estelle heard her communicator go off.
"Is it Jerry?" Lee asked.
"No, actually, it's LJ, David, and Zofia," Estelle replied. "And they're in... Paris, France?"
"Looks like we're gonna have our hands full," said Lee. "Especially if we're going all the way there."
"Don't worry," Estelle replied before winking. "I have some 'magical ways' to help out."
Lee smiled from that before hugging her.
"Hey! What's that for?" Estelle giggled from that.
"Just for you being you," Lee chuckled before kissing her cheek. "Let's get going. I'd suggest the W.O.O.H.P jet, but that would arouse too much suspicion, even more than your Wiccan magic."
Estelle nodded to that.
At a local castle, Ash was there was his own girlfriend, Serena, along with two siblings known as Clemont and Bonnie, before they soon heard a communicator going off.
"Emi seems to be in some kind of trouble," Ash told Serena. "I should probably make sure she's okay."
"Good idea," replied Serena. "We'll come with you."
"We?" Ash asked. "Oh, Serena? I don't know..."
"Let's help Emi!" Bonnie beamed. "She's like a big sister to me!"
"She's your sister and our friend." Clemont then told Ash.
"Oh... Well... All right..." Ash then said. "I guess we could all help out Emi."
The group nodded.
"Alright then... Let's get a move on!" Ash decided.
"YEAH!" Everyone else agreed.
Delia and Satoshi smiled as they got comfortable before looking over.
"Mom, Dad, we're going out," Ash told his parents. "You stay here at the castle."
"What's going on?" Delia frowned. "I'm not sure if this is a good idea to let you go alone."
"Aw, Mom, you always let me and Emi go off on our own," Ash told his mother. "It'll be fine. Besides, this is for Emi."
"Well..." Delia replied. "If it's for Emi, then okay."
"Of course, Mom," Ash smiled. "I promise we'll be back again soon."
"All right," Delia replied. "See you soon."
"See you soon." Ash nodded.
And so, the Pokémon group took off to get going to wherever Emi was as she headed to Paris, France with Akito.
"Looks like we might be in for a helluva fight..." LJ remarked. "Hope my Juju powers still work."
"Yeah, your Juju powers, of course, how couldn't you use your Juju powers? Your Juju powers are so helpful!" Raul said before whispering. "What's a Juju power?"
"Eh, I learned how ta use them when I teamed up with this tribal kid named Tak to harness The Power of Juju." LJ explained.
"Oh... Well, okay then," Raul replied. "I guess it'll take a lot of that if we're lucky enough since you have some."
"Tak?!" Dib and Gaz asked.
"No, no, not that Tak," LJ then told them. "Totally different guy."
Dib and Gaz then calmed down.
"Do I wanna know?" Chrissy asked.
"Don't worry about it," Zofia replied. "I nearly forgot about that time you met Tak, Brother. I think we should use anything we can against Maleficent when she comes back."
"Okay then, cuz that's exactly my plan." LJ replied.
"Right." The rest of the group replied.
"You always have a plan, don't you?" Kimberly smiled to LJ.
"It pays to." replied LJ.
Angelica was soon singing to herself as she was putting on make-up and was on her way out to meet Jean-Claude. The boy in question was on his way to meet her as well.
"Don't wait up~," Angelica smirked to the others. "I'll be off in paradise."
"Have fun with that then." Kimi replied.
And so Angelica trotted happily out to meet Jean-Claude, unaware of the battle that was brewing on the horizon.
"Have fun, Angelica," Chrissy said. "We'll be here kicking some evil villain butt."
"Sure, whatever," Angelica replied. "I'm gonna have the best date of my life!"
The group then went back to getting ready.
"Ready to go?" Jean-Claude smiled at Angelica.
"I thought you'd never ask~" Angelica beamed as she soon linked arms with him as they left the hotel.
The two of them trotted off into the city as Maleficent and Despara returned. The other adults seemed to be leaving on their own.
"Looks like it's a kiddie hotel after all." Despara smirked at her mother.
"Which will make it easier to find our targets." replied Maleficent.
Despara chuckled. Maleficent and Despara's group soon began to march to the hotel to take down LJ and his friends.
"They're coming, guys," LJ remarked. "Let's hope that help shows up soon..."
"Quickly!" Zofia cried out.
Mandy soon came in front of the villains.
"What do you want now?" Maleficent complained to the blonde girl.
"I'm gonna help you guys." Mandy glared.
"How, by getting your butt kicked AGAIN?" asked Despara. "Yeah, no thanks."
Mandy growled from that. "I can be evil!"
"Sorry, but the position has been filled." Maleficent said before zapping Mandy away with her scepter.
And with the distraction removed, the villains continued their ascent towards the room. Zofia and LJ soon ran around a bit, panicking slightly as help hadn't come yet. Luckily, the others soon made it.
"There you are!" David said to them. "Where have you been?"
"Sorry, but once we realized we were going the same way, we used a bit of magic to come here at the same time." Estelle replied while hugging Zofia back who had run to her to hug her.
"Huh... Convenient," David shrugged. "But I'm not complaining."
"Are they coming then?" Akito asked, looking out the window.
"Yep," Chrissy replied. "They're right on the way."
"Okay, let's all get ready then." Akito then said, taking out his Loonatics bracelet to change.
Estelle and Vincent then decided to do the same to get themselves ready up against the incoming villains.
LJ pulled out a staff and spun it. "Alright... Ready to go!" he exclaimed.
Kimberly conjured two rainbow lassos, ready for combat. Everyone else got themselves ready.
Maleficent kicked the door open with the others behind her.
"Uh, Mademoiselle? You're going to 'ave to pay for zat." The hotel manager spoke up.
Maleficent narrowed her eyes and hit him with her scepter, suddenly turning him into a toad.
"...I suppose I could let it slide..." The transformed manager replied casually.
Maleficent nodded firmly and went to get going with the others.
Clemont took a look out for the others and looked back into the room. "It seems to be those Disney Villains you guys warned us about." she then said.
"Oh, great!" Zofia complained.
"Should we tell Felicity?" David asked.
"She's relaxing with Chip and Honey," Zofia replied. "I don't wanna disturb her."
"Hey, we got this," LJ replied. "We can tell her just in case we get overwhelmed."
The doors soon burst open. Hadie soon appeared with a smirk along with the kids of the Disney Villains.
"They have kids?!" Clemont asked.
"Oh, we didn't mention that?" Zofia grinned nervously.
"I figured it was common knowledge." David shrugged as he took out some nunchakus.
"Oh, man..." Clemont said.
"I'll help too." Bonnie spoke up.
"You're just a little girl," Chrissy said. "You stay here and watch TV."
Bonnie pouted. "I'm not just a little girl! I can so help too!" she remarked.
"Let's just leave this to the professionals." Chrissy said, walking off.
Bonnie huffed and pouted as she was stuck staying behind.
"All right, guys, let's do this." Chrissy then told the others.
"Right!" The group replied.
"You will surrender, LJ," Maleficent smirked. "King Sombra might've failed in his quest, but I won't in mine."
"I don't do surrender," replied LJ. "It's not in my vocabulary."
"Then your friends will have to suffer in the process." Maleficent replied.
"Especially with what happened with my sister." Ursula told LJ firmly.
"That was her fault." LJ replied.
"And we don't do suffering." added Tommy.
"Y-Yeah..." Chuckie gulped.
"This one's pretty laughable," Yzla smirked to Chuckie. "Little Carrot Top looks like he saw a ghost."
"I am not a Carrot Top!" Chuckie glared.
"Yeah, leave Chuckie alone!" said Phil.
"Nobody makes fun of him when we're around!" added Kimi.
The Disney Villains' descendants soon surrounded the Rugrats gang.
"We'll take you out with ease since you're all powerless, especially with me around." Horatio grinned darkly.
"As long as there is evil... There will always be good to balance it out," LJ replied as David snapped his digits. "Also... You guys have martial arts skills now."
"What does that mean?" Phil asked.
"David just gave you the ability." LJ replied.
"How does that work?" Tommy asked, a bit confused.
"Look, we can discuss how it works, or we can button it and whip some serious tail!" David replied.
The group looked to each other before shrugging as it was time to kick some Disney Villain butt. Despara soon came to sneak up on LJ to drug him, dodging any of his punches or kicks.
"Phoenix Special!" LJ exclaimed as he crossed his arms and unleashed a fiery bird at Despara, head-on.
Despara glared at the firebird. The bird soon called out and began to fly after her.
"OFF WITH YOUR HEADS!" The Princess of Hearts snapped, chasing after Clemont, Martin, Jenny, and Raul with an ax that had a big red heart on it.
"Go play Solitaire or something!" Jenny cried out.
Raul spun his belt buckle and turned into Turbo Tigré, slashing the cards to pieces. The Princess of Hearts growled.
"You're cute, but too bad I could never love someone like you," Turbo Tigre told her. "Just 'deal me out'."
"Oh, that is so lame," The Princess of Hearts rolled her eyes from that. "Like I'd ever love you anyway. You're probably as useful as a club or a spade."
"Nope... I'm just a Jack of all trades!" Turbo Tigre replied.
The Princess of Hearts still snarled as she soon shot out a deck of cards which then came to life.
"Oh! They move now!" Turbo Tigre then said. "Alright, bring it on then!"
Clemont and the Mazinsky twins soon went to hide from Yzla.
"Any ideas?" Clemont asked Martin and Jenny.
"Yep," Jenny replied. "It's time to kick some action."
"Twin style." Martin added.
"Pardon?" Clemont asked out of confusion.
"...Just watch." replied Martin and Jenny as they both spun like cyclones around Yzla.
Clemont blinked as he went to watch. Yzla looked around curiously until she was then met with the Action Twins who then changed their outfits and lunged out at her, not holding back.
"Whatever you want from my brother, just forget it!" Zofia glared at Maleficent. "He's not betraying our family!"
"Yeah," LJ added. "I'm sticking with them, no matter what!"
"Even with this?" Hadie asked, taking out what looked like a gemstone.
"Yeah! Even with... That... Thing..." LJ glared before he seemed to lose his willpower like he was in a trance. "What is...?"
"Never mind what it is," Hadie smirked. "I got it from my father."
"What the hell is that thing?!" asked David.
"A special gem," Hadie smirked. "Now he'll be under our control and go along with us easily now and you can't stop it. Don't even bother trying to shatter this gem, it's indestructible."
"It might not be able to be shattered... But what about knocked away?" asked Tommy. "Dil, NOW!"
Quick as a whip, Dil shot out his yo-yo, which knocked the gem out a nearby window. The gem fell, tumbling, down-down-down... Into a sewer grate. The gemstone soon came back for the sake of the plot.
"Nice try," Hadie smirked. "No, really, that was a good effort."
"What the-?!" Tommy asked. "How did you do that?"
LJ seemed to be blacked out for a while, so Maleficent sent him over to her home with a smirk.
"He'll wake up in a couple of hours," Hadie told Maleficent. "He should be more cooperative this time."
"Excellent," Maleficent smirked. "It would appear we've won this fight, so it's time to go."
"Nooo!" The group cried out and the villains soon left.
"Don't worry, he'll probably come back in time for the climax, then we'll have to help him remember who he is." Kimberly told the others.
"Kimberly, you can't break the fourth wall!" Chrissy said. "Only LJ and his dad can do that!"
"Well... You know," Kimberly shrugged. "Besides, somebody has to do it."
"Well... Yeah, I guess," Chrissy said. "We just can't tell his mom what happened."
"Why not tell Aunt Cherry?" Vincent asked.
"Because she'll get scarier than usual," Chrissy shivered. "She was able to scare Mandy on Halloween. I'd hate to imagine what she'd do if anything happened to LJ."
"Maybe she and Dad would actually be able to help us get him back," replied David. "Besides, she was only terrifying cuz Mandy antagonized her."
"You promise your mom won't get mad?" Chrissy asked.
"I don't think so, but she might get mad if you lie to her face." David replied.
"So... Yeah, we gotta tell Father first." said Zofia.
"Tell me what?" asked Lionel as he came in.
Zofia and David looked over before sighing a bit. Lionel looked over to the kids curiously.
"Mr. Schwartz, don't get mad, but LJ was taken." Chuckie spoke up.
"LJ got taken?" asked Lionel. "By who?"
"The Disney Villains." The group replied.
"Maleficent was here?" Lionel guessed.
"Yeah, she seemed pretty insistent on taking him." Lil replied.
"Then I shall look for them... I will find them... And I will kill them," Lionel continued. "For I have skills. A very specific set of skills that I have perfected throughout my life up to this point."
"What if you can't?" Kimberly frowned in concern.
"That's why I'm bringing Cherry with me," replied Lionel. "Come on, kids."
Cherry looked up as she was getting ready to go herself.
"Some vacation." Dil commented.
"Tell me about it." Tommy replied.
"Yeah... Couldn't we have met aliens?" Dil then asked.
This made nearly everyone else anime fall.
"...Whatever," Lionel replied. "Let's go save our son... But we may as well go over the plan so nobody screws up."
"Yes," Cherry said. "These villains are some of the most dangerous I've ever faced about 20 years ago with my friends such as Atticus or Lionel here before we all split up and started our own families."
And so, the group got into a huddle to go over the plan.
Meanwhile, LJ was regaining consciousness as Maleficent and the others returned. "...I-I feel so strange..." he grunted as he got to his feet. "What happened to me...?"
Knuckleheads had surrounded LJ.
"Aw, great, you guys." LJ groaned to them.
"Lady Maleficent wishes to see you." A Knucklehead said, grabbing his hand and walking with him, pulling him to go and follow.
LJ tried to resist, but he found himself following behind obediently. Maleficent was shown to be sitting on her throne, watching a screen that showed a purple-haired girl who smiled and kissed a boy with brown hair who looked quite friendly and happy.
"Lady Maleficent, the prisoner has arrived!" announced the Knucklehead as he arrived with LJ in tow.
"Very good," Maleficent approved. "Bring him forth."
The Knucklehead then pushed LJ in to see the Mistress of Evil.
"You... What do you want with me?" LJ glared a bit.
"I'd like to get even," Maleficent smirked. "I need an heir of my own, and you seem to be perfect for the job. I don't want you to run off any longer, and I would love for you to stay here with me and learn how it's good to be bad."
"Why not Despara then?" LJ asked about the heir thing.
"She's a bit too young... I once had a suitable heir, but that child is no longer my child in my eyes." Maleficent replied mysteriously.
LJ knew who she was talking about... Mal. "Hmph... Fine then..." he then replied. "Just leave my family and friends alone. I'll do whatever you want... Just don't do anything to them."
"Is that your final answer?" Maleficent smirked.
"Yes..." LJ replied sadly.
"Then... So be it!" Maleficent replied as she grabbed her staff.
"Do your worst." LJ bowed a bit.
Maleficent then shot him with her scepter which had glowing green magic with a bit of bright blue which was not from her own, but was "generously" donated from Hades. LJ cried out as he was struck by the magical energy, which seemed to engulf his body.
"No turning back now, I've got you right where I want you." Maleficent grinned.
LJ continued to groan out until the beam stopped.
"Tell me, young man... Who are you?" Maleficent asked.
"I am an empty vessel..." LJ replied with wide green eyes. "Who are you?"
"I am your mother," Maleficent grinned. "You will do what I say and what I ask of you, no matter what it might be. You are the son I've always wanted... The child I've always wanted... I shall name you... 'Azazel'."
Azazel nodded. "Of course, Mother. Your word is law." he replied.
"Perfect!" Maleficent laughed giddily evil from that.
Azazel stood up. "What do you wish of me, Mother?" he asked calmly.
"You must help me gain control so I can rule not just this kingdom, but the entire planet." Maleficent grinned.
"Yes, Mother," vowed Azazel. "Your voice is music to my ears, and I shall follow it without question."
"Excellent, my boy..." Maleficent grinned. "You've already made me so proud."
"It's what I live for." Azazel replied.
"Yes, it's your birthright." Maleficent nodded.
Azazel nodded back as he exited the room, leaving Maleficent to enjoy her victory, while Mandy glared on, still stewing in her own insanity and rage.
"Are you still here?" Maleficent asked Mandy. "You better be doing something useful for once."
"How come you gave him that kind of power?" asked Mandy. "I've been bad since the day I was born. If anyone deserves to have that kind of power, it should be me!"
"Oh, but there's a difference... I'm not very fond of you." Maleficent replied.
"What's that got to do with anything?!" Mandy snapped. "That goody-two-shoes little creep only got the powers cuz he thinks you look hot, while I've been training my entire life to conquer the whole universe! So I should be the one with the powers, and he should be the one kneeling at my feet!"
"You're just petty and think that because everyone in your hometown is dumb enough to be afraid of you that you can control just about everything and everyone." Maleficent rolled her eyes.
"I'LL SHOW YOU!" Mandy glared. "I idolized you as a kid, and you just throw your chance at winning the Earth's conquer in your hands at some poor, shape-shifting sap!"
"Go ahead then," Maleficent said, rolling her eyes. "...Show me."
Mandy narrowed her eyes a bit.
"Well, go on," Maleficent replied. "I'm waiting... Amanda."
"I'll destroy his stupid friends and family," replied Mandy. "How's that?"
"All right, if you think you can do that, I'd like to see it." Maleficent smirked.
"I don't think I can do it; I know I can do it." Mandy scowled.
"Then go ahead and try," replied Maleficent. "If you actually succeed, I'll give you some of my power. If you fail... Then I personally get to kill you."
Mandy narrowed her eyes. "Then will you and the other villains take me seriously?"
"Perhaps... In fact, you could be like my second daughter..." Maleficent replied, subtly crossing her fingers behind her back.
Mandy held out her hand. Maleficent then took Mandy's hand, though the blonde girl seemed to get hit with a jolt of electricity.
Mandy grunted a little at that. "There. It's settled," she replied. "Now I can go and kill those idiots."
"Have fun now," Maleficent smirked. "And don't hurry back."
Mandy nodded and left, as Maleficent chuckled to herself at this.
