Hello "Kombatants"! Ozzy-Zike Fan 10.57 again, dropping the first commentary for Mortal Kartoons 3—the final installment of the Mortal Kartoons stories I've created so long ago. But first, I want to make a shout-out once again to my co-writer danielhakkim054 for helping me along. Thanks again, dude. :)

With that said, let's roll on out!

(Also, as of the time writing this, I hope you're all staying healthy and safe during these hard times.)

Roster

(Same as the combined rosters from the first two Mortal Kartoons stories, along with the following new names for MK3):

Valerie Gray as Cetrion
Dr. Droid as Geras
Rumpelstiltskin (Shrek franchise) as Kollector
Eris as Kronika
Grim Reaper (from Darkwing Duck) as Kharon

After everyone got their designs back to normal, Jimmy Neutron thought of something.

"Brain blast!" exclaimed the boy genius. "Guys, I know how to solve our dilemmas."

"Awesome!" Sara Possible smiled. "What do you have in mind, Jimmy?"

"I'll tell you after I pick up a couple things from my lab. Wait just a moment guys, and I'll be right back."

As Jimmy left the studio, the other cartoon characters looked beside themselves.

"So . . . what do we do now?" Po inquired.

"Don't ask us to practice our lines," Valerie shrugged, "since we've already done that a thousand times over."

From off-screen, Danny Fenton (temporarily in his half-ghost form) floated by and set down a heavy-looking chest. "Not to worry guys—I think we're covered."

As Danny opened the chest, everyone looked inside and found it laden with board games, a couple decks of cards, a handheld video game, a portable TV, an old paperback book of crossword puzzles, and many other indoor activities.

"Well," Timmy Turner shrugged, "that seems . . . kind of convenient."

Foghorn Leghorn scratched his head in confusion. "I'd question—I say, I'd question the convenience of these items."

Boog reached in and pulled out a box with the word "chess" written on it, before coolly smiling at the others. "Hey, I don't ask questions—I just have fun."

Tork sighed almost in a nonchalant sort of way. "Well, something is better than nothing."

A FEW HOURS LATER . . .

Everyone present was busy with their activities (if doing anything at all). Notable scenes included the following:

Raimundo Pedrosa, Kim Possible, Ron Stoppable, Danny, Omi, Kimiko Tohomiko, and Cornelius Fillmore played a random card game.

Sara, Tork, Samurai Jack, and Po participated in a game of Hangman, with Dash the Sloth marking the board . . . very slowly.

T-Bone and Razor were currently going against Wreck-It Ralph and Vanellope Von Schweetz in a game of checkers.

Timmy, Boog, and Julie Bruin watched the small TV with a tired look in their eyes.

Foghorn and Barnyard Dawg were playing a round of chess.

Foghorn made his move before announcing, "Check—I say, checkmate."

Barnyard Dawg, in response, angrily smacked the board and pieces between them to the side, scattering them.

Just then, Jimmy came in through a portal, with two remotes strapped to his arms and wheeling in something covered with a sheet.

"Hey guys, I'm back!" Jimmy called out.

"Oh, goody!" said Steelbeak sarcastically.

Walter Wolf huffed. "It took you long enough."

"What have you got there, Jimmy?" Tork Tiger inquired.

"What I have here," smiled the boy genius, "are the answers to our problems. For starters, behold!"

As Jimmy pulled off the sheet, he revealed what looked to be a complete replica of Aku in human form.

Samurai Jack unsheathed his sword slowly, with unease. "What matter of—"

"Don't worry, Samurai Jack," Jimmy rest-assured, "what I have here is just a robotic suit for someone to control. As the wearer speaks through it, they'll sound just like Aku. What do you think, guys—pretty neat, huh?"

Shere Khan nonchalantly shrugged his shoulders, his hands behind his back. "I suppose 'impressive' could be the correct term."

"Yeah," said Randy Cunningham, "I was convinced that was the real deal."

"Precisely—" Jimmy pointed out—"what I hoped to accomplish. Now all we need is someone to operate it. Actually, we'll need more than one person."

Vicky cocked an eyebrow before asking curtly. "What do mean 'more than one person'?"

"I was about to answer that. Omi, Timmy—could you two stand side-by-side for a moment?"

"I am confused," stated the Xiaolin monk of water, "but if you insist, Jimmy."

"How's that?" Timmy asked after he and Omi followed the boy genius' request.

Jimmy pulled out one of the remotes. "That's perfect, guys. Now watch closely everyone." He then concentrated on Timmy and blasted him with a beam of energy.

Suddenly, the cap-wearing boy faded into a copy of the Xiaolin monk of water (while still wearing his signature clothes), causing practically everyone to gasp.

"What? What just happened?" asked the recently-transformed Timmy through Omi's voice, before covering his mouth momentarily. "Hey, why do I sound like Omi all of a sudden?"

Jimmy walked over to Timmy with a mirror before handing it to him. "That's because, well technically speaking, you are Omi. What do you think?"

"Whoa, that's actually incredible! I look exactly like him! Well, except for the clothes of course."

"Is that what one may consider 'looking into a mirror,' or something?" inquired Omi.

Jimmy winked. "That's the idea. Don't worry guys—I can turn Timmy back to normal real quick."

Blasted with the energy beam again, Timmy faded back to his regular self.

"A neat gadget and all, but how's it going to solve our dilemma, really?" queried Kimiko.

"Remember when I said someone will operate the Aku suit?" responded the boy genius. "It'll be the same basic principle. We'll ask some of the actors who served as extras in the background to play our doubles for the third film. However, there is a catch: In order for it to work, we'll need people who match our height, size, and whatnot. Fortunately, there are extras who have us covered."

"What about those of us who won't be in the same shot?" Sara asked.

"Sorry?"

"I mean, for example, some of us, while playing our respective roles, aren't going to interact with our 'past selves' in the movie."

"Oh, of course. Well, I guess some of us will play double roles for once we cross that bridge."

"Again," said Foghorn, "I would question—I say, I would question everything here, but—I say, but it looks like ya'll got everything covered—covered, that is."

"Much appreciated, Foghorn."

"So does that mean we're set?" Ron asked.

Kim answered. "It seems as though we are."

"Then what are we waiting for?" Raimundo shrugged. "Let's get going."

Fillmore nodded once. "Agreed."

"In that case," responded Tork, "we better tell the director and have our 'doubles' accounted for."

"My apologies, Jimmy, but are you certain that is not the real Aku?" Samurai Jack inquired.

Jimmy pressed the button of another remote, opening the robotic suit, revealing basically the same controls as what was in that UltraLord robotic suit he once used. "Absolutely. I can assure you of that."
