Animal Crossing In Action: Duo Of Justice

Chapter 25: Good Old Fishing

It was a very good day for the fishing tourney to begin, the gray beaver named Chip was in charge of this tourney. Everyone, in town, participated the fishing tourney and started to catch a fish. Robert has no idea of where to start in order to catch a fish. Then, he immediately saw Vicki by the river where she was waiting for the fish to take a bait.

"Hey Vicki!" Robert called.

"Hey Robert!" Vicki called back. "Did you catch a fish yet?"

"No, not yet. I am looking for an area to catch one though..."

"Then, why not catching one in the river?"

"Sounds like a good idea to me!"

Robert started to cast his fishing rod and waited for the fish to take a bait. While he was waiting, Vicki felt her fishing rod moving and started to reel it in. She caught the black bass from the river and brought it to Chip right away. Few seconds later, Robert quickly reeled his fishing rod and caught the koi. So, he took it to Chip and checked out the results. After the beaver measured Vicki's fish, he measured Robert's fish and was very impressed.

"Ooh, this is excellent!" said Chip excitedly. "Your fish is forty-two inches tall, and you're now in the first place!"

"Wow, really?" said Robert surprisingly. "I wasn't expecting that at all, but it's amazing though!"

"Oh my, that's a very good fish you caught there, Robert!" said Vicki. "Way to go!"

"Ha, thanks!"

Sammy and Jimmy were behind the town tree and overheard the results. They were so pissed off because neither of them caught a single fish at all. So, they quietly walked away and looked around to see if nobody was present at that time.

"Did you hear that, Sammy?" Jimmy asked. "Goldenrod got the big fish, and all we have right now are empty-handed!"

"I know, but we will catch a big fish for sure!" said Sammy. "So that way, we will win the trophy! That's for sure!"

"Then, where do we begin?"

"Let's begin fishing at the river!"

Sammy and Jimmy were starting to fish at the river. When one of their rods got the bite, Sammy started reeling it in. But all he caught was the trash, and he was starting to get annoyed. The next location was the lake, so they casted their fishing rods and waited for the fishes to take a bait. As soon as one of them took a bait, Jimmy reeled his fishing rod and caught a crucian carp, which it wasn't big enough for him. Finally, they were heading to the beach and starting to cast their rods. All of the sudden, they spotted Vicki and Robert who were also fishing there as well.

"Hey, what's up, Silverwing, Goldenrod?" Sammy asked.

"Goldstein!" said Robert, correcting his last name to Sammy. "We're trying to catch a bigger fish as we can."

"That's right!" Vicki agreed. "So, how did it go for both of you?"

"We didn't catch a fish yet, so we're still searching..." Jimmy answered. But Sammy elbowed him and gave him a glare for telling Vicki and Robert.

"Well, good luck to both of you," said Robert. "I hope you guys will catch one soon."

"Oh, we will alright!" said Sammy.

Suddenly, Sammy started reeling his fishing rod and caught the boot, instead of the fish. Vicki and Robert started to chuckle very lightly. Then, Jimmy reeled his fishing rod, but he caught an empty can instead. Vicki and Robert couldn't help but to laugh. The twins were very frustrated that they started to cast their fishing rods together. But they didn't notice that their hooks were hooking up their pants and lured themselves into the ocean waves. Vicki and Robert began to laugh so hard that it was really funny than the last ones.

Meanwhile, Chip was measuring the fish that Serenity caught from the lake before telling her the results. Then, he measured Nick's fish that he caught from the river and told him the results. After they thanked him and left right away, Chip checked the clock to see what time it was right now. So, he quickly went to his tent and prepared the announcement of the winners before the fishing tourney would end soon. Until suddenly, someone knocked him down and made him fell unconscious.

Several minutes later, Lorelei and Darren caught their fishes and sent them to Chip so he could measure them. But something was amiss, the beaver was not here at the moment. They decided to check out the tent to see if he was inside. As soon as they entered, they found Chip got tied up and gagged at the same time. Lorelei and Darren quickly untied him, but they were stopped by someone who knocked them down with the stick.

Vicki and Robert were walking around for a bit and found a spot to catch a fish. All of the sudden, Robert began to sense something very negative and it came from Chip's tent. Vicki glanced at her boyfriend and was curious about his reaction.

"Hey Robert, what's wrong?" Vicki asked.

"Did you sense something very unusual from Chip's tent?" Robert asked, ignoring Vicki's question.

"Chip's tent, huh? Hmm..." Suddenly, Vicki also sensed something very sinister from the beaver's tent. "Oh! Now that you mentioned it, I sensed it, too! You don't suppose...?"

"Yeah, I'm afraid so...Come on, let's quickly transform!"

"Right! Angelic power..."

"Knight power..."

"Action!" the duo shouted altogether, as they began their transformations.

Back at Chip's tent, the henchmen tied Lorelei and Darren up and hooked them along with Chip. Arrowhead and his octopus slave named Octavian were ready to strike them down with the harpoon. Until the Duo of Justice had arrived to stop them, they stopped their plan and glared at the duo.

"Hold it right there!" Phantom Angel exclaimed.

"You'd better let them go or else!" Masked Swordmaster exclaimed.

"Or else what?" Arrowhead asked.

"Or else, you're going to get it big time!"

Arrowhead sighed heavily. "Henchmen, throw those two out of the tent now."

The Duo of Justice fought against Arrowhead's henchmen and lured them out of the tent. Then, they threw Arrowhead and Octavian out of there as well. When they were outside of Chip's tent, the archer shot the arrows at the dynamic duo. They quickly dodged them and Masked Swordmaster used his crystalized sword to slice Arrowhead's bow. He kicked him on the stomach and made him fell to the ground.

"Nice sword you've got there, tough guy," said Arrowhead, as he took out his two crossbows. "But you wouldn't be so tough with this!"

"That's what you think, Arrowhead!" Masked Swordmaster exclaimed, as he unleashed his new attack. "Pure crystal X-slash!"

Masked Swordmaster's crystalized sword cut down Arrowhead's crossbows into little pieces. The archer was very frustrated that he didn't have any other weapons to use. Finally, the white knight unleashed his new ultimate attack as he spun his sword, threw it in the air and caught it, and made a stance.

"Crystal sword strike!" Masked Swordmaster shouted, as his crystalized sword began to shine and struck down Arrowhead.

When the light of pure crystal surrounded Arrowhead, he was eliminated and was never seen again. Not only that he's gone, but the evil curse was removed from Octavian and the octopus was back to normal. As soon as it was over, the Duo of Justice went to the tent to untie Chip, Lorelei, and Darren right away.

It was few minutes before the fishing tourney was over, Vicki and Robert caught their own fishes and went straight to Chip so he could measure them. The beaver was amazed that they caught the same fish, but one of them was a bit bigger than another. As soon as the tourney was over, it's time to wrap things up for Chip as he was ready to make the announcement.

When everybody gathered around inside of the tent to see who the winners were, the three winners were standing on the podium patiently. Nick, Serenity, Lorelei, and Darren were surprised that they found out of who the first winner was.

"Thank you, everyone, for coming!" Chip announced. "Now is the time to announce of who the winners are in the fishing tourney! The third winner who caught fifty-two inch sea bass is Tammi! The second winner who caught one hundred twenty-nine inch tuna is Vicki! And last, but not least, the first winner who caught one hundred thirty inch tuna is Robert! Congratulations to the winners! Let's give them a round of applause!"

After Chip gave the winners the fish trophies, everybody gave them a round of applause. They were so happy that they actually won the fishing tourney. Sammy and Jimmy, on the other hand, were not and were very disappointed because they didn't win the tourney. So, they left the tent and went straight home instead.
