At Studio 25, the students were learning about oceanography. "And that's what we know about dolphins" Mrs. Guidi said, "That's lunch everyone, Chef Pablo is fixing up some recipes from the Chez Badger cookbook."
"Chez Badger" asked Nadine as she raised her hand, "Isn't that the cookbook from Canada."
"You know my cranky father-in-law," replied Mrs. Guidi, "He loves Canadian imports. Food, paper, even those actors for that new skateboarding show featuring Tony Hawk."
In the hallway, three Canadian skaters were shredding down the hallways. One was male with braces, one was an Indigenous Canadian, and one was female with pink spiky hair, "Yo, Zion" shouted the Canadian with braces, "Care to join us after dance rehearsal, eh?"
"Sure, man," answered Zion, "But you might want to have to shred outside, cause Big G hates it when kids skateboard in the building."
"Sorry, eh" answered another.
During lunch, The Boys noticed that the Canadian skaters were being left out. It only got worse when Lewis deliberately tripped and laughed at them. Remembering the pool parties they went to, Kevin smiled, "I know what we're gonna do today" said Kevin, "We'll welcome those Canadian skaters with a pool party after dance rehearsal."
After lunch, the boys were in one of the marketing room using the copy machine for their pool party. Beatbox was in the room, because Cristian let them pet-sit while he interviews a reporter from Teeth TV. By the door, Dorothy could watch them work, "Watcha Doin" asked Dorothy as Nick showed her the flier for their party.
Ultimate Mega Pool Party
Backstreet's Boys Beach house
Orlando Florida
"Can we help?" asked Dorothy, "Uncle Max really wants to cater for a pool party for newcomers."
"With pleasure" Nick answered.
With one blush, Dorothy decided to go back to class to tell the others.
As Howie D turned around, he saw that something was wrong, "Hey" he asked, "Where's Beatbox?"
Funny he should ask, Beatbox, Kehlani, and The Penguins were arriving towards the storage room where our heroes usually do Cyber Crusaders meeting. In the room, they met Princess Zanell, "Good afternoon, Beatbox, Kehlani, and The Penguins of Madagascar" she greeted, 'The evil Dr. Zora has stolen all the bubble soap in Orlando. As Cristian told me from children's toy knowledge, is that there a good children's activity on warm weather days. We tracked her down at the abandoned soap factory."
"The same one where Zaria and her hippie goons kept the kidnapped hippie, "Matteo"" recalled Skipper.
"Exactly" replied Zanell, "Now get out there Cyber Crusader Animals, we're counting on you."
On their rocket-powered hang glider, they took off to save the day, "Gee" Kehlani exclaimed, "I can't believe I get to be with you guys on a mission!"
"It's not going to be easy Kehlani" replied Kowalski, "Remember, you can't fly yet."
"I know" Kehlani replied back, "But I can still hop."
At one of the dance studios, Jalen was practicing his salsa dance routine. Little did he know, is that Nadine was watching him through the door, "Jalen can dance" Nadine thought to herself, "Why didn't he tell me"
Later at the Backstreet Boys Beach House, everyone was getting ready for the party while in their swimsuits. Kevin and Howie D placed out the food, Nick and B-Rok set up the decor, and AJ got out all the pool toys. After he placed the last pool toy out, the door rang.
At the front door, Mr. and Mrs. Booth were there with a giant catering order, "I can't believe I get to cater for a pool party hosted by The Backstreet Boys" exclaimed Mr. Booth.
"Max," Mrs. Booth replied, "This catering order is important for the summer charity fund. We're raising money to help protect the wildlife in Hawaii."
"It's okay Alayna," A. J replied with a smile, "Your welcome to stay if you want."
"I think it'll be smashing for our new worker, "Annika" to get to know you guys" explained "She's been a fond of you ever since 1995. Even though she's 29."
"Coming, Alayna" shouted a Pacific Islander girl,
"That's, Annika" explained Mrs. Booth, "She's going to flip once she sees you, Howard, Brian, Kevin, and Nicholas."
"Then I better get out of the way and help B-Rok put out some of the games."
"Games!" shouted Mr. Booth.
"Dear" Mrs. Booth said as she grabbed her husband, "Catering order?
"Sorry" Mr. Booth replied.
As they got inside, Annika started looking around the party decorations and was thrilled by the interior. "Be careful," Howie D advised, "Those are rare antiques from India."
Annika was surprised, because she was in the beach house of The Backstreet Boys, "Aren't you a little too old to be a boy band" she asked.
"Yes" Howie D answered, "Yes we are."
Dr. Zora's Abandoned Soap Factory
In the abandoned factory, Kehlani, Beatbox, and The Penguins saw a large set of bobby traps. Skipper made a decision, "Kehlani," he ordered, "Get through those with your little hopping skills."
"Okay" Kehlani replied.
Very carefully, Kehlani avoided the booby traps and made it safely, "Wait to go, Kehlani" exclaimed Private.
Then Beatbox and The Penguins did the same technique as Kehlani.
When they arrived to the same room Zaria kidnapped Matteo before, robotic arms trapped the six animals. In the shadows, Dr. Zora emerges with an evil grin and places a muzzle on Beatbox's mouth, "Hoover Dam you mad scientist" Skipper shouted, "With that muzzle on him, Beatbox can't do his anti-gravity beat boxing!"
"Exactly" smiled Dr. Zora evilly, "The Backstreet Pets, this is unexpected. And by that, I mean completely expected. I knew you rabid monsters would get through my bobby traps. I'm a mad scientist."
"Birds hardly have rabies" Private explained as Dr. Zora stuffed a Zallegrean popover in him.
Dr. Zora explained to the pets that she stole all the bubble soap to distract the humans while The Zallegrean Army plans to invade and destroy the Earth, In order to get the equipment she needed, she turned to two animated villains from the Toon World, Pinky and The Brain, from the show of the same name, "It's a pleasure to meet you Arctic birds." Brain greeted.
"Me too" replied Pinky, "I just love their music. One time, Brain tricked them into think making him leader. Of course I accidentally messed up by requesting to be backup singer. Plus there was one missing."
"Backstreet Tower Takeover" Kowalski recalled, "AJ was out of the picture thanks to three Animaniacs and their anvil motivations."
"Enough chattering" shouted Skipper, "What is Dr. Zorastein building anyway?"
"Let me present to you" Dr. Zora answered as she unveiled a giant bubble wand with an assembly of bubble-like robots, "The Bubblewand-inator, guaranteed to sting human eyes. I also made an army of robotic bubble blowers, program to target human eye-sight."
Remembering their training in NSA Robotics, Robots work in assembly lines and needed commands.
Meanwhile at the beach house, the party was getting started. Everyone was relaxing, having fun and splashing around.
"Guys" Zion shouted, "These are Cayden, Benson, and Oaklyn, these are the skaters I told you about."
"Right on" B-Rok answered as he high fived the three skaters.
"We're huge fans of your music, Eh" Oaklyn explained in a Canadian accent.
"And we'd even saw you on your Millennium Tour at the SkyDome in 1999." continued Benson in a Canadian accent.
"Wanna know what we did to audition for The Elephant Ramp with Tony Hawk?" asked Cayden.
"Sure" B-Rok answered as he stood up, "Attention everyone, this is Cayden, Benson, and Oaklyn. Their going to be on The Elephant Ramp with Tony Hawk this summer and they want to do the same stunt they pulled to get in."
For their stunt, Cayden, Benson and Oaklyn skated around the edges of the pool without getting one spec of water on them. Everyone was impressed by his or her act, including Annika who was a roller-skating champion in her teenage years. "Plus this pool party is amazing", commented Annika.
"That reminds me" Faith recalled, "I have to tell the boys on villainous deceptions.'
"No need" answered Nick, "We did our homework. The New Leaf Trick, someone pretends to call a truce to gain their trust."
"The Breakup Dreamteam trick" recalled Howie D, "A scheme where the villains tricks the teammates into breaking up.
"The Fightfire WFire Trick" recalled Kevin, "Where they defeat the enemy with the same stuff."
"The Howtheylikeit Trick" recalled A. J, "A scheme where the villain gets a taste of his/her own medicine."
"And The Lovehurts Gambit" B-Rok finished, "Where the villain tricks the hero into thinking their love interest hates them."
"Good call boys." commented Faith
Little did they know, is that Lewis was watching them from his private yacht. On his yacht, his chauffer, "Nixon", "Lewis" he asked, "Are you sure stalking The Backstreet Boys is such a good idea?"
"Quiet, Nixon" he growled, "Those Backstreet Bums, think they could throw a party without me, their wrong."
"I've got to quit and become a juice bartender," Nixon said to himself.
Meanwhile at the abandoned soap factory, Dr. Zora was putting up the final adjustments to her The Bubblewand-inator when Kowalski remembered something, "You know how Pinky is super dumb" he whispered, "I got a plan."
By a telescope, Pinky was observing Mr. Slushyburger, craving for a cheeseburger, "Excuse me, Pinky" Kowalski asked, "Do you know how you could get this muzzle off?"
Wanting to explain how it works, Pinky walked off. Fortunately, Dr. Zora and Brain were too busy with The Bubblewand-inator to notice, "All you got to do to remove the muzzle is to input the password," explained Pinky, "Which is 664321."
Password accepted
And just like that, our heroes were free and ready to fight, "Go on, Beatbox" shouted Kehlani, "Do your beatboxing!"
Using his powerful beatboxing, he made everything lift up. Dr. Zora and Brain were surprised because Pinky's idiocy freed them. With one swim, they pushed Dr. Zora and unintentionally activated the bubble.
At the front of the Backstreet Boys' house, Lewis met up with Mr. and Mrs. Lyndon, Mr. and Mrs. Gomez, and Miss. Chirohiro, "Parents and legal guardians of Ginger, Nadine, and Jessie" he said, "Your children have been helping The Backstreet Bums throw a massive pool party without me. If you don't believe me, come to the pool now."
Back at the pool party, the patrons were suddenly caught in bubbles, "Funny" asked Howie D, "I don't remember this being part of the party."
"Who cares" Nick replied, "This is radical."
"I remember blowing bubbles as a little girl" Annika explained, "And the five you really know how to welcome a new worker at a Hawaiian-themed restaurant and three Canadian skateboarders."
By the pool, the partygoers, pool toys, and decor were nowhere to be seen. Lewis turned his head and was petrified by the disappearance, "I'm telling you guys" he exclaimed in horror, "The Backstreet Bums did throw a party without me."
"Another attempt to steal the spotlight and distract us from our work" growled Miss. Chirohiro, "I have to grade those science finals."
"Plus we have to cater for a Memorial Day banquet" explained Mr. Gomez.
"And we have to finish up that animation reel for that castaway cartoon, "Full Moon Lagoon" explained Mrs. Lyndon, "Good day, Mr. Hightower.
Back at the abandoned soap factory Skipper and Kowalski used the 10-mile grabbling hook to tie up Pinky and Brain, "Look at here Brain" shouted Pinky, "A grabbling hook tied up towards us."
"I know Pinky," cringed Brain, "Don't rub it in."
"You know the phase, "Fight Fire With Fire"" asked Skipper, "Rico!"
As he was coughing his mouth, he got out the bubble ray gun from The NSA. He fired the gun and aimed it at Pinky and Brain, "Curse you, Backstreet Pets!" shouted Brain as they floated away.
During their way back to the Toon World, Pinky wondered something, "What do you want to do when we get back to The Toon World" he asked.
"The same thing we do since they cancelled us in 1998" answered Brain, "Try to take over the world."
Not wanting to get trapped in a bubble, Dr. Zora teleported away back to Zalgea. Then Rico blew a bubble so big, it trapped The Bubblewand-Inator.
From his binoculars, Kowalski can see that something was wrong, "Skipper" Kowalski said, "We got a little Backstreet problem."
"Other than those cutie pies throwing that welcoming pool party for those Canadian skateboarders" Skipper asked.
"That's the problem" explained Kowalski as he showed our heroes in bubbles.
"Hoover Dam!" shouted Skipper, "We need to get those teenagers out, pronto."
"Can I help" asked Kehlani, "I may not be able to fly yet, but I can make bubble pop."
Using an empty dart gun, Kowalski shot Kehlahi and she hopped and popped the bubbles. Finally, she ended up landing on Kehlani's shoulder, "Oh, there you are Kehlani."
Suddenly, everyone came crashing down into a pillow truck. "That was fun" shouted Oaklyn, "I'm so glad we auditioned, Eh!"
"Now I know one way we could dry up" suggested Jessie, "A pillow fight!"
Hearing these words, everyone started doing a pillow fight. "Look out Faith," chuckled B-Rok, "Here comes a shooting feather ball!"
After she got hit with a pillow, Faith tossed a pillow at him, "15 points!" she shouted.
Little did they know, is that Beatbox and The Penguins started driving the truck back to the beach house.
At the front door, Rico unlocked the gate by using a recording of the boys' singing, "Singokey 9000" Skipper said, "Latest in musician security.
Once the truck dumped the pillows and the party guessed, Beatbox hopped out of the truck and back to its Earth disguise, "Oh there you are, Beatbox" said Howie D as he got up and petted him.
When everyone got back to the pool, Raquel and Rosalee spotted two bags with their names on the. They opened the bags to find two dolls. One was a blonde doll in a green dress and one was an Italian girl with a red scarf, "Are these rare Mary MaGuffin doll?" asked Raquel.
"Yeah" Rosalee answered, "These have bin discontinued since the mid 90s due to the fact that people are always fighting over it. This is the collectible Family Reunion doll."
"They are Mary Maguffin dolls" answered Vincenzo as he was drying off and putting on his glasses, "Mommy always wanted one when she was a little girl, but our maternal grandma and grandpa were afraid that she'll get to possessive of them. Plus Uncle Alfonso would use it as a model for doll clothes."
"We also got Mary Maguffin's Italian cousin, "Maria MaGuffin"
By the dance floor, DJ Jalen was playing, "Shape Of my Heart". Nadine was staring at him lovingly. She took a deep breath and walked up to him, "Hi Jalen" she greeted, "I say you dancing in the dance studio"
"You did" Jalen gasped, "I've never danced on live TV before, normally I DJ."
With one smile, Nadine got an idea.
On Friday, LADUWS was going on. Cayden, Benson, and Oaklyn and Annika were in the audience, "Can you believe we get to see LADUWS, Eh?" Cayden asked.
"Yeah" Oaklyn answered, "And I hear that there's a surprise between Kevin and Nadine's number, eh?"
"Alright folks" announced Cristian, "Who's ready to shimmy and shake, twist until their ankles break, and jump like pogo sticks. Let's All Dance Until We're Sick. Brought to you by Stiff Beauty hairspray"
During the performance, Jessie and A. J did a jazz dance to Cruisin With A Bruisin, Dorothy and Nick did a crazy jazz to Sugar Rush, Faith and B-Rok did a Tap to Anything You Can Do, Ginger, Vincenzo, and Howie D did a waltz to Unchained Melody. Finally, Nadine and Kevin did a modern to Time Of My Life, "Dirty Dancing is like our favorite movie, Eh?" Benson asked
"Mine too" Annika replied, "I'd even met Patrick Swayze while he was doing a movie in Reno. I was there for a dance convention."
Then all of the sudden, the lights pointed to Jalen, who was surprised. He was also nervous at first, but after looking at Nadine, he smiled, took off his jacket, rushed down to the dance floor and did a salsa duet with Nadine. Nadine was happy, because her plan to get Jalen to dance on TV worked like a charm.
Everyone cheered.
The End.
