"Is everything satisfactory sire?" Treela asked, standing excitedly in anticipation.
Taline lifted her fork and took a bite off her plate…she chewed for a moment with a smile, then she suddenly frown.
"It's…it's uh…really good!" said Taline, turning around and spitting it into her napkin – she hoped Treela wouldn't notice…she didn't.
"Great! So glad it's to your liking! I worked all day on it! Isn't that grand? All day! I was just cooking and I noticed the sun going down and I was WHOA! That took all day!" Treela giggled.
"Uh-huh…right." Said Kuzco, putting a piece of slop in his mouth. Kuzco promptly spit it out; it flew into the assistant's face.
"WHAT IS THIS? IT'S HORRIBLE!" said Kuzco, wiping his tongue with his napkin.
"It's my own special recipe! It's cream of llama stew!" Treela explained excitedly.
"Where is KRONK? HE'S THE HEAD CHEF, NOT YOU! NOW I CAN SEE WHY!"
"Well, Kronk told me he had a previous engagement, that was why you haven't had a wedding feast."
"Well, you better find him Treela! And if you DON'T…well…let's just say, you'll be able to feel what it's like to 'fly'"
"Fly? That sounds like soooo much fun!"
"Let me make it easy for you Treela…I'll have you thrown out the window."
"Oh…well then…" said Treela, backing away, "Enjoy your meal…and uh…I'll just uh…go find Kronk."
Treela backed out the door of the dining room.
"I can't believe she works in the kitchen! Who hired her?"
"Well…" said Taline, twirling her hair.
"YOU DID?" Kuzco asked.
"She looked so…sad…I just had to hire her." Said Taline.
"Well…soon we'll have Kronk back…. and…"
"YOUR HIGHNESS!" called a voice from outside the room.
The doors flew open and the assistant ran in.
"There better be a good reason for interrupting our meal…"
"There is sire! There is!" said the assistant, "The peasants from the main village! They're attacking the palace!"
"WHAT?" Exclaimed Kuzco.
"You must come immediately sire!"
"They better leave! I'm still hungry! Taline, you wait right here."
"But Kuzco…" said Taline sadly.
"I don't want you to get hurt." And with that, Kuzco and the assistant ran out of the room.
Taline gave an evil grin, "But Kuzco" she mocked, "I don't want you to get hurt."
Taline stood up from the table and walked to the door of the dining room, opened it, then walked out.
"This is my moment of glory! KUZCO! YOU'RE FINISHED!" she screamed angrily in the empty hall. Outside, trees in the terrace were set on fire, people were attacking the guards – it was a war zone.
---------------------------------------------------------------------------- ------------
"Just CALM DOWN PEOPLE!" Kuzco shouted from the window above the gates outside.
"WE WANT PACHA! KATINKA IS A HORRIBLE LEADER!" the crowd cried, whacking the palace walls.
"Well that's TOO BAD! You aren't going to get him! He tried to ruin my life!" he called down, and then he pulled his head back into the room.
"What are we going to do?" Kuzco asked nervously.
"P-p-perhaps, sire, we could give Pacha control of the village again? There were no problems when he was leader…" said the assistant.
"WHAT? ARE YOU CRAZY? HE WANTS TO COME BEWTWEEN ME AND MY BEAUTIUFL WIFE!"
"Well, sire…perhaps I shouldn't tell you this, but she only asks nice around you…"
"OF COURSE! She's MY wife, not yours!" Kuzco said, slumping down on his thrown. The whole palace was dark – it was a windy night and all the lanterns had been blown out.
---------------------------------------------------------------------------- -------------
Treela slipped out a side door from the secondary kitchen. She walked along the ledge till she got to the end of the palace. She peered around the corner and saw all the villagers fighting guards and whacking the gate in. She quickly ran back into the kitchen, bringing her lantern with her. Light filled the room and standing there, in the kitchen was Kronk.
"Kronk?" Treela asked surprised, "what are you doing back here?"
"Well, you know…Yzma and Katinka are planning on luring Kuzco into a trap and killing him…so, we're back here to do that." Kronk's face turned pale, "uh-oh…I don't think I was supposed to tell…you…that."
"Kronk! I thought you had resigned from being a villain's helper."
"Well…I did, but then my shoulder angel told me to go…so did my devil, so…"
"Come on Kronk! We have to save the emperor!" she said, grabbing her lantern of the hook, "where are they going?"
"They're going to the dungeon…" Kronk replied.
"Why?" Treela asked.
"I don't know…its part of Taline's plan…"
"TALINE? SHE'S TRYING TO KILL KUZCO?" Treela asked nervously, "I think we better go, QUICK!"
---------------------------------------------------------------------------- ----------------
"Alright kids…are you ready?" Chica whispered to her kids, among the mob. Tipo and Chaca nodded. "Follow me" Chica said, sliding unnoticeably away from the mob.
Chica and her children walked along, through the mob until they reached the front, where they were whacking open the door. Chica ran to the left quickly as she could and slid along the side of the palace. They slipped into the Secondary Kitchen side door and Chica lit her lantern.
"Do you know where we are?" Chica asked.
Chaca pulled out a big book and studied it, "well, according to 'the big book of Kuzco, twelfth edition – we go, up those stairs." Chaca pointed to the stairwell leading up.
"Right!" Tipo said, then they all ran up the stairs.
MEANWHILE
"KRONK! I THOUGHT YOU KNEW THE WAY!" Treela said, hands on her hips.
They were standing in a dark hallway, nowhere near the dungeon.
"I thought I did." Said Kronk.
"WELL, if you had've just stopped and asked for DIRECTIONS…" said Treela.
"NO! I can get us there…just give me a minute." Kronk stood there, rubbing his chin and inspecting the map.
Treela looked at the map over Kronk's shoulder, "KRONK! IT'S UPSIDE DOWN!"
"OH! I was wondering why it said OCZUK on it." Kronk's smile faded into a look of confusion.
"GRRRR! THAT DOES IT KRONK! I'm getting directions!" and with that Treela walked over to the small stand in the middle of the hallway, marked INFORMATION KIOSK.
"Excuse me, where is the dungeon?" Treela asked.
The man behind the counter pointed left.
"Thanks you – Come one Kronk, let's go."
--------------------------------------------------------------------
Chica, Tipo and Chaca ran down the staircase into the pitch-black room.
"Is this it?" Chica whispered.
"Y-yes." Chaca replied.
Chica put her lantern out in front of her, casting a dim light. Chica waved it around.
"I-I don't SEE anything." Said Chica.
"Keep looking." Said a sinister voice.
Chica nervously waved her lantern in the direction of the voice – it was Katinka, holding Yzma in her arms.
"YOU! What are you two doing here?" Chica demanded angrily.
"The same thing as you…we've come to pay a visit to your dear husband."
"MY HUSBAND?" Chica asked nervously.
"Don't worry…apparently visiting hours ended at six…perhaps you'd like to talk with US instead" Katinka said evilly.
"I don't know WHAT you're up to, but when the emperor finds out you two are here…"
"He would be quite mad, wouldn't he?" Katinka asked, "too bad there won't be anyone around to tell him."
A flash of thunder made Katinka's evil grin even more threatening.
Yzma grinned and produced a knife from under her fur. Katinka grabbed it and walked slowly towards Chica, Tipo and Chaca. Just then, Kronk and Treela burst in down the stairs.
"Great! We got here and Kuzco is even here yet!" Treela said angrily.
"Yeah…us secondary characters never can get a break." Kronk said, rubbing the back of his neck.
"KRONK? WHAT ARE YOU DOING HERE?" Yzma screamed.
"I'm here to stop you from…uh…whatever you're doing."
"Me too!" said Treela, getting a karate pose.
Katinka rolled her eyes, "this is pathetic."
Kronk and Treela carefully approached Katinka and Yzma.
"Give up now?" Treela asked sternly.
"Hmmmm…no" Katinka said sarcastically.
"Alright then! Come on Kronk! Let's show her how it's done!"
"Right!" replied Kronk.
They went up on either side of Katinka. Katinka put Yzma down on the ground. Treela and Kronk both went for a punch at the same time, Katinka ducked, Kronk and Treela whacked each other onto the floor, knocked out.
"Hm, good punch." Katinka said casually, then she put her evil grin back on her face.
Just then, Taline ran down the stairs.
"WAIT!" she called.
Katinka rolled her eyes, "WHAT NOW?"
"This wasn't part of the plan…killing Kuzco, maybe, but killing someone else?"
"You have to do what you've got to do…we're evil geniuses." Yzma said, Katinka nodded in agreement.
"But THIS?" Taline said.
"GET OUT OF OUR WAY GIRL!" Yzma yelled.
Just then the whole palace shook.
"W-what was that?" Katinka asked.
"They've gotten in! They broke through the doors!" Taline cried, "they'll be down here any minute!"
"We have to get out of here, NOW!" Yzma cried, jumping into Katinka's arms.
Katinka and Yzma ran out the other door to the room, leaving Chica, Tipo, Chaca and Taline.
Voices could be heard up stairs…they would be here soon.
Taline ran out the door opposite the one Katinka and Yzma took.
------------------------------------------------------------------------
"Your highness! The villagers have reached the dungeon!" bumbled the assistant.
"WHAT? HOW DID THIS HAPPEN?" Kuzco asked angrily.
"They were too numerous for our guards."
"I'll take care of them later, FIRST I have to go and get Taline! We must bring her out of the palace." Kuzco said.
"B-but sire…" said the assistant as Kuzco ran down the darkened hall out of the throne room.
Kuzco walked through the open door to the pitch-black dining room.
"TALINE?" He called, walking further into the darkness.
"TALINE!!!" He called.
Just then, the door shut. Kuzco looked behind him and saw Taline; she was behind the door and had shut it.
"Taline! There you are! We've got to get out of here! The villagers have taken control of the palace! "
"I'm afraid that's not possible Kuzco…" said Taline in a patronizing tone as she walked closer to Kuzco.
"W-why not?" Kuzco asked nervously.
"It's much to late for that…KUZCO DEAREST." She said through gritted teeth.
"What?" he asked.
Taline pulled out a knife and walked closer to Kuzco.
"What are you doing?" Kuzco asked, backing away.
"Just what you deserve honey…" she said evilly.
Kuzco ran to the door behind him, but when he opened it, four guards walked in with knives.
"What are you guys doing? I'm the EMPEROR!"
"Yes, well…it would seem Yzma's potion book has a potion for everything…even brainwashing."
"Taline…I can't believe your doing this."
"It's a little late for regrets NOW Kuzco…isn't it?"
Just then, the door behind Taline flew open to reveal Yzma and Katinka.
"You starting it without us?" Yzma asked sadly.
"It's never too late…in fact, you're just in time…"
The door behind Taline opened again to revel more brainwashed guards.
"What is this? HE'S THE ENEMY! NOT US!" Cried Katinka.
"You didn't actually think I'd trust YOU…even if YOU are bumbling idiots…" Taline said evilly.
"Katinka! I can't believe you're in on this." Kuzco cried.
"I'm NOT in on it anymore…" Katinka replied.
"ENOUGH! You can all fight all you want in the afterlife! Now is MY TURN! I will kill you all! The empire will be mine! ALL mine!" Taline shouted.
"Taline…why?" Kuzco asked.
"First of all, I think you are a pompous, arrogant jerk…then there's the power…it will all be mine! And lastly, you are my brother."
"BROTHER? I MARRIED MY SISTER? EWWWWW!" Kuzco yelled.
"Shut-up Kuzco! It isn't true!" Yzma yelled.
"That's EMPEROR KUZCO fur ball." Kuzco replied.
"How could YOU be my sister anyway?"
"Simple…Our Father, Emperor Kreggitus had me with my mother…when I was young, my mother ran away from the palace, taking me with her…"
"WAIT! Why would she leave the palace?" Kuzco asked annoyed.
"I WAS GETTING TO THAT!" Taline replied angrily, "She ran away because our father was too self centered and demanding…like you. She died when I was twelve and I promised her I would come back to the palace."
"But did she tell you to KILL me?"
"No…that was mine…she just wanted me to meet my brother – our mother knew she couldn't bring us both or their would be no heir to the throne and…back then the law was only a man could be emperor."
"Very touching." Said Katinka sarcastically, "now, let us work together and kill Kuzco."
"Now, now…I didn't go to all this trouble just so I could share my glory with you two…" said Taline evilly.
"Alright men! KILL HIM!" Taline pointed at Kuzco.
Just then, the door flew open to reveal Pacha, in front of the rest of the mob.
"STOP!" Pacha yelled.
"PACHA!" Kuzco yelled happily.
"PACHA?" Taline asked, puzzled.
"PACHA?" Yzma exclaimed.
"IS THIS REALLY LOW FAT?" Katinka exclaimed, taking another bite of her brownie.
"You can't kill my buddy Kuzco! Not with a thousand evil plans." Pacha exclaimed.
"CHARGE!" Pacha pointed in the room, the mob fled in and got the knives away from the guards.
"This…this is all wrong!" Katinka exclaimed, staring dumbfounded at the mob, "How could this have happened? Everything was so perfect!"
"You fool! This is YOUR entire fault! If you hadn't of convinced me we needed a girl, this never would have happened!"
"WHAT?" exclaimed Katinka, "MY FAULT?"
Just then the mob started to approach them threateningly. The two women stopped arguing and looked nervously at the mob.
"Uh-oh." They said in unison.
A portion of the mob took them away out of the room.
"What?" exclaimed Taline, "I had everything planned perfectly! How could this have happened?"
"Sure…you had everything planned alright…too bad you tried to mess with the king of the world! BOO YA!" Kuzco exclaimed.
"B-but, Kuzco! I'm your wife! Your sister!" said Taline, the guards took hold of her arms.
"HEY! YOU FOOLS! ATTACK!" Taline pointed at Kuzco and Pacha.
"Sorry Taline…these guards are on OUR side." Said Pacha.
"WHAT? YOU'LL PAY FOR THIS KUZCO! YOU'LL PAY!" screamed Taline as the guards dragged her away.
Kuzco and Pacha laughed happily.
"Listen, Pacha…maybe I overreacted just a little so…"
Pacha put up his hand signaling Kuzco to stop.
"Friends?" asked Pacha, holding out his hand.
Kuzco grabbed Pacha's hand and said, "Friends."
"Come here!" said Pacha happily, pulling Kuzco into a big bear hug.
"NOT….SO…TIGHT." Kuzco said breathlessly.
Chica, Tipo and Chaca hugged Kuzco and Pacha too, making one big group hug.
--------------------------------------------------------------------------
Kuzco and Pacha sat in swim trunks on folding lounge chairs in the sun. They were on a grassy hill by Kuzco's smaller version of 'Kuzcotopia' in the village, all the Katinka statues were being taken down – by Katinka and Yzma!
Kuzco took a sip of lemonade from his cup and called, "Hey Katinka, Yzma! Can you work a little faster? That statue is blocking the sun!"
Katinka grumbled angrily as she took another whack at the base of the statue with the hammer.
"I can't believe you messed this up!" Yzma said angrily to Katinka, whacking her tiny mallet against the base of the statue.
"I am so sick of you! It was YOUR fault and that is FINAL!" Katinka yelled.
"Hey Katinka! Keep it down over there!" Kuzco called.
Katinka smiled and waved, in an attempt to suck up…she gave the hammer a whack to the base and the statue crumbled, on top of her.
Yzma smiled and laughed evilly. Just then, Kara ran up to the crumbled remains.
"Oh Kitty! I finally have you back from that nasty woman! Yes I do!" said Kara, picking up the kitten.
"don't touch me." Said Yzma quietly through her teeth.
"Oh yes! I can't wait to try that bonnet on you! You'll look so precious! Yes you will!" said Kara, running off with Yzma.
"AAAHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHH!" Yzma screamed as Kara ran off down the hill with her.
Katinka stood up weakly from under the remains and said, "it was YOUR fault." Then she fell to the ground.
"Hey Katinka! Enough playing around! Get back to work!" Kuzco called, laughing.
---------------------------------------------------------------------------- -
Kronk and Treela stood up in the dungeon, rubbing their heads in pain.
"Do you think we missed anything?" Treela asked.
"We must have scared Yzma and Katinka into giving up!" Kronk said excitedly.
"I knew they wouldn't last! I'm as touch as a rock!"
Just then, Bucky ran down the staircase.
"Bucky?" Kronk said, shocked.
Bucky spoke in squirrel.
"Uh-huh…REALLY? All that, huh? A Party? Let's go!"
Kronk pulled Treela by the arm and ran off to the village.
----------------------------------------------------------------------------
Kuzco stood facing the door to his hut, shaking his hips as the Theme song guy started to sing.
He's the sovereign lord of the nation, he's the hippest cat in creation, he's the alpha, the omega, A to Z.
Kuzco ran down the hill, giving high fives to Kronk, Pacha, Treela, Chica, Tipo, Chaca and assorted villagers as they all joined in singing happily at the top of the hill.
And his perfect world will spin, around our every little whim, a perfect world begins and ends with US!"
MEANWHILE
"Doesn't she just look PRECISOUS?" Kara exclaimed excitedly, pointing to her baby carriage.
"Oh yes! She's so cute! I think we should play dress up all day long! Don't you agree Kitty?"
there was no answer.
"Kitty?" Kara asked worriedly…she peered into the carriage, there was Yzma, dressed in a pink dress and pink bonnet.
"Come now Kitty…say it." Said Kara.
"Oh fine!" said Yzma angrily, "I'm just the most precious little thing, yes I am."
"Awww! That is so cute! I love when you say that! DO it again! DO it again."
Yzma rolled her eyes.
THE END
-----------------------------------------------------
What did you guys think overall? Was the ending good, or too cheesy? Please let me know!
-EK
"Is everything satisfactory sire?" Treela asked, standing excitedly in anticipation.
Taline lifted her fork and took a bite off her plate…she chewed for a moment with a smile, then she suddenly frown.
"It's…it's uh…really good!" said Taline, turning around and spitting it into her napkin – she hoped Treela wouldn't notice…she didn't.
"Great! So glad it's to your liking! I worked all day on it! Isn't that grand? All day! I was just cooking and I noticed the sun going down and I was WHOA! That took all day!" Treela giggled.
"Uh-huh…right." Said Kuzco, putting a piece of slop in his mouth. Kuzco promptly spit it out; it flew into the assistant's face.
"WHAT IS THIS? IT'S HORRIBLE!" said Kuzco, wiping his tongue with his napkin.
"It's my own special recipe! It's cream of llama stew!" Treela explained excitedly.
"Where is KRONK? HE'S THE HEAD CHEF, NOT YOU! NOW I CAN SEE WHY!"
"Well, Kronk told me he had a previous engagement, that was why you haven't had a wedding feast."
"Well, you better find him Treela! And if you DON'T…well…let's just say, you'll be able to feel what it's like to 'fly'"
"Fly? That sounds like soooo much fun!"
"Let me make it easy for you Treela…I'll have you thrown out the window."
"Oh…well then…" said Treela, backing away, "Enjoy your meal…and uh…I'll just uh…go find Kronk."
Treela backed out the door of the dining room.
"I can't believe she works in the kitchen! Who hired her?"
"Well…" said Taline, twirling her hair.
"YOU DID?" Kuzco asked.
"She looked so…sad…I just had to hire her." Said Taline.
"Well…soon we'll have Kronk back…. and…"

"WE WANT PACHA! KATINKA IS A HORRIBLE LEADER!" the crowd cried, whacking the palace walls.
"Well that's TOO BAD! You aren't going to get him! He tried to ruin my life!" he called down, and then he pulled his head back into the room.
"What are we going to do?" Kuzco asked nervously.
"P-p-perhaps, sire, we could give Pacha control of the village again? There were no problems when he was leader…" said the assistant.
"WHAT? ARE YOU CRAZY? HE WANTS TO COME BEWTWEEN ME AND MY BEAUTIUFL WIFE!"
"Well, sire…perhaps I shouldn't tell you this, but she only asks nice around you…"
"OF COURSE! She's MY wife, not yours!" Kuzco said, slumping down on his thrown. The whole palace was dark – it was a windy night and all the lanterns had been blown out.
---------------------------------------------------------------------------- -------------
Treela slipped out a side door from the secondary kitchen. She walked along the ledge till she got to the end of the palace. She peered around the corner and saw all the villagers fighting guards and whacking the gate in. She quickly ran back into the kitchen, bringing her lantern with her.

Chaca pulled out a big book and studied it, "well, according to 'the big book of Kuzco, twelfth edition – we go, up those stairs." Chaca pointed to the stairwell leading up.
"Right!" Tipo said, then they all ran up the stairs.
MEANWHILE
"KRONK! I THOUGHT YOU KNEW THE WAY!" Treela said, hands on her hips.
They were standing in a dark hallway, nowhere near the dungeon.
"I thought I did." Said Kronk.
"WELL, if you had've just stopped and asked for DIRECTIONS…" said Treela.
"NO! I can get us there…just give me a minute." Kronk stood there, rubbing his chin and inspecting the map.

Katinka and Yzma ran out the other door to the room, leaving Chica, Tipo, Chaca and Taline.
Voices could be heard up stairs…they would be here soon.

"Your highness! The villagers have reached the dungeon!" bumbled the assistant.

Taline pulled out a knife and walked closer to Kuzco.
"What are you doing?" Kuzco asked, backing away.
"Just what you deserve honey…" she said evilly.
Kuzco ran to the door behind him, but when he opened it, four guards walked in with knives.
"What are you guys doing? I'm the EMPEROR!"
"Yes, well…it would seem Yzma's potion book has a potion for everything…even brainwashing."
"Taline…I can't believe your doing this."
"It's a little late for regrets NOW Kuzco…isn't it?"
Just then, the door behind Taline flew open to reveal Yzma and Katinka.
"You starting it without us?" Yzma asked sadly.
"It's never too late…in fact, you're just in time…"
The door behind Taline opened again to revel more brainwashed guards.
"What is this? HE'S THE ENEMY! NOT US!" Cried Katinka.
"You didn't actually think I'd trust YOU…even if YOU are bumbling idiots…" Taline said evilly.
"Katinka! I can't believe you're in on this." Kuzco cried.
"I'm NOT in on it anymore…" Katinka replied.
"ENOUGH! You can all fight all you want in the afterlife! Now is MY TURN! I will kill you all! The empire will be mine! ALL mine!" Taline shouted.
"Taline…why?" Kuzco asked.
"First of all, I think you are a pompous, arrogant jerk…then there's the power…it will all be mine! And lastly, you are my brother."
"BROTHER? I MARRIED MY SISTER? EWWWWW!" Kuzco yelled.
"Shut-up Kuzco! It isn't true!" Yzma yelled.
"That's EMPEROR KUZCO fur ball." Kuzco replied.
"How could YOU be my sister anyway?"
"Simple…Our Father, Emperor Kreggitus had me with my mother…when I was young, my mother ran away from the palace, taking me with her…"
"WAIT! Why would she leave the palace?" Kuzco asked annoyed.
"I WAS GETTING TO THAT!" Taline replied angrily, "She ran away because our father was too self centered and demanding…like you. She died when I was twelve and I promised her I would come back to the palace."
"But did she tell you to KILL me?"
"No…that was mine…she just wanted me to meet my brother – our mother knew she couldn't bring us both or their would be no heir to the throne and…back then the law was only a man could be emperor."
"Very touching." Said Katinka sarcastically, "now, let us work together and kill Kuzco."
"Now, now…I didn't go to all this trouble just so I could share my glory with you two…" said Taline evilly.
"Alright men! KILL HIM!" Taline pointed at Kuzco.
Just then, the door flew open to reveal Pacha, in front of the rest of the mob.
"STOP!" Pacha yelled.
"PACHA!" Kuzco yelled happily.
"PACHA?" Taline asked, puzzled.
"PACHA?" Yzma exclaimed.
"IS THIS REALLY LOW FAT?" Katinka exclaimed, taking another bite of her brownie.
"You can't kill my buddy Kuzco! Not with a thousand evil plans." Pacha exclaimed.
"CHARGE!" Pacha pointed in the room, the mob fled in and got the knives away from the guards.
"This…this is all wrong!" Katinka exclaimed, staring dumbfounded at the mob, "How could this have happened? Everything was so perfect!"
"You fool! This is YOUR entire fault! If you hadn't of convinced me we needed a girl, this never would have happened!"
"WHAT?" exclaimed Katinka, "MY FAULT?"
Just then the mob started to approach them threateningly. The two women stopped arguing and looked nervously at the mob.
"Uh-oh." They said in unison.
A portion of the mob took them away out of the room.
"What?" exclaimed Taline, "I had everything planned perfectly! How could this have happened?"
"Sure…you had everything planned alright…too bad you tried to mess with the king of the world! BOO YA!" Kuzco exclaimed.
"B-but, Kuzco! I'm your wife! Your sister!" said Taline, the guards took hold of her arms.
"HEY! YOU FOOLS! ATTACK!" Taline pointed at Kuzco and Pacha.
"Sorry Taline…these guards are on OUR side." Said Pacha.
"WHAT? YOU'LL PAY FOR THIS KUZCO! YOU'LL PAY!" screamed Taline as the guards dragged her away.
Kuzco and Pacha laughed happily.
"Listen, Pacha…maybe I overreacted just a little so…"
Pacha put up his hand signaling Kuzco to stop.
"Friends?" asked Pacha, holding out his hand.
Kuzco grabbed Pacha's hand and said, "Friends."
"Come here!" said Pacha happily, pulling Kuzco into a big bear hug.
"NOT….SO…TIGHT." Kuzco said breathlessly.
Chica, Tipo and Chaca hugged Kuzco and Pacha too, making one big group hug.
--------------------------------------------------------------------------
Kuzco and Pacha sat in swim trunks on folding lounge chairs in the sun. They were on a grassy hill by Kuzco's smaller version of 'Kuzcotopia' in the village, all the Katinka statues were being taken down – by Katinka and Yzma!
Kuzco took a sip of lemonade from his cup and called, "Hey Katinka, Yzma! Can you work a little faster? That statue is blocking the sun!"
Katinka grumbled angrily as she took another whack at the base of the statue with the hammer.
"I can't believe you messed this up!" Yzma said angrily to Katinka, whacking her tiny mallet against the base of the statue.
"I am so sick of you! It was YOUR fault and that is FINAL!" Katinka yelled.
"Hey Katinka! Keep it down over there!" Kuzco called.
Katinka smiled and waved, in an attempt to suck up…she gave the hammer a whack to the base and the statue crumbled, on top of her.
Yzma smiled and laughed evilly. Just then, Kara ran up to the crumbled remains.
"Oh Kitty! I finally have you back from that nasty woman! Yes I do!" said Kara, picking up the kitten.
"don't touch me." Said Yzma quietly through her teeth.
"Oh yes! I can't wait to try that bonnet on you! You'll look so precious! Yes you will!" said Kara, running off with Yzma.
"AAAHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHH!" Yzma screamed as Kara ran off down the hill with her.
Katinka stood up weakly from under the remains and said, "it was YOUR fault." Then she fell to the ground.
"Hey Katinka! Enough playing around! Get back to work!" Kuzco called, laughing.
---------------------------------------------------------------------------- -
Kronk and Treela stood up in the dungeon, rubbing their heads in pain.
"Do you think we missed anything?" Treela asked.
"We must have scared Yzma and Katinka into giving up!" Kronk said excitedly.
"I knew they wouldn't last! I'm as touch as a rock!"
Just then, Bucky ran down the staircase.
"Bucky?" Kronk said, shocked.
Bucky spoke in squirrel.
"Uh-huh…REALLY? All that, huh? A Party? Let's go!"
Kronk pulled Treela by the arm and ran off to the village.
----------------------------------------------------------------------------
Kuzco stood facing the door to his hut, shaking his hips as the Theme song guy started to sing.
He's the sovereign lord of the nation, he's the hippest cat in creation, he's the alpha, the omega, A to Z.
Kuzco ran down the hill, giving high fives to Kronk, Pacha, Treela, Chica, Tipo, Chaca and assorted villagers as they all joined in singing happily at the top of the hill.
And his perfect world will spin, around our every little whim, a perfect world begins and ends with US!"
MEANWHILE
"Doesn't she just look PRECISOUS?" Kara exclaimed excitedly, pointing to her baby carriage.
"Oh yes! She's so cute! I think we should play dress up all day long! Don't you agree Kitty?"
there was no answer.
"Kitty?" Kara asked worriedly…she peered into the carriage, there was Yzma, dressed in a pink dress and pink bonnet.
"Come now Kitty…say it." Said Kara.
"Oh fine!" said Yzma angrily, "I'm just the most precious little thing, yes I am."
"Awww! That is so cute! I love when you say that! DO it again! DO it again."
Yzma rolled her eyes.
