Numbah 2 moved slowly through Stuffed Animal Cemetery, keeping a sharp eye out for his opponents. Suddenly a shadowy darted by, frightening the pilot. "Jimmy? You really should just give up now." Numbah 2 said in a scared voice. "I signaled the tree house before I came in after you. My team will be here any second!"
Meanwhile, back at the tree house, the alert siren was blaring through the building. Numbah 4 walked out of his room, shot the alarm with a M.U.S.K.E.T., then went back to bed.
Numbah 2 continued to move through the graveyard, scared witless. Suddenly, something came flying towards him! He rolled away just in time, then returned fire in the general direction of the attack. Although he didn't hit his attacker, he did blast a tree branch will fell onto his enemies head, stunning him.
Seizing the opportunity, Numbah 2 charged forward and tackled his foe, letting him see that his assailant was his former partner, Joe Balooka. Judging from the Water Balloon Launcher he'd been carrying, it was obvious he had tried shooting him with a (probably Pinkeye laced) water balloon.
"JOE! You're working for Jimmy?" Numbah 2 asked his former friend.
"Not for, Gilligan, with!" Joe replied with a sneer. "We're working on something so big, even I don't know who's in charge!"
"Well, as soon as we get back, I'm sure we can convince you to give up some of your new friends." Numbah 2 threatened back.
Joe just smirked at this. "I'm only gonna say three words Gilligan: look behind you." he said. Numbah 2 glanced back, and saw an oncoming hoard of Stuffed Animal Zombies headed his way. He shrieked in terror and began running. Joe just faded into the darkness.
The chubby pilot rushed past the headstones, but everywhere he looked, there were more zombies! Rainbow Monkeys, Sassycat dolls, Pretty Princess Unicorns, they were everywhere!
Meanwhile, Joe was heading towards the exit. The zombies were supposidly on his side, but he'd been messed with by an undead plush toy before...
Suddenly his face hit the dirt. Joe looked behind him and saw that he had tripped over a tree root. He was on the verge of flipping out when a the faint sound of helicopter blades entered his ears.
He looked up to see Mushi Sanban floating towards him. Her yellow Rainbow Monkey backpack had a pair of three bladed helicopter rotors attached to poles that rose from inside the backpack. When she touched down, the blades folded down and the entire assembly retracted into the backpack.
"It's about time you got here Sanban. I did what you wanted, so get me outta here!" Joe shouted. Mushi just rolled her eyes at the dramatic outburst and held out her hand. Joe grabbed on, and Mushi activated her heli-pack. The two co-conspirators flew into the dark of the night.
Meanwhile, the zombies got closer and closer to Hoagie, who had been backed up against a large concrete mausoleum. Just when he seemed to be doomed, all the zombies suddenly turned to dust, and were then scattered by the wind. Numbah 2 blinked in confusion, then ran screaming all the way back to the tree house.
Twenty minutes later, Mushi and Joe arrived at the Sand Castle of Mushi's boyfriend, "King" Sandy. The two entered the castle and traveled through the sand corridors until they finally reached a massive conference room, where a massive round table made of sand stood before a huge television screen. Seated at the table where Jimmy, Anna, and Sandy.
"At last my beautiful Queen, and the lowly sheriff, have returned!" Sandy exclaimed as Mushi took an seat next to him, making her blush. Joe opted to sit closer to Jimmy.
"Well all-righty then. Since no one is absent, I guess now is a good time to report to the boss. Anna my dear, if you would be so kind...?" the former president spoke up. Anna nodded, then pressed a button on a remote control. The screen flickered to life, but the only image that came across was a possibly female child, who had all their features covered by blackness, like on those crime shows where they protect the informants identity.
"Make it fast." when the unknown figure spoke, their voice was deepened artificially.
"We recovered the disk just as you instructed. The Mainframe no longer holds any secrets." Jimmy spoke while tossing the disk into a slot on the massive screen, allowing its contents to be downloaded by their mysterious boss.
"Excellent. I'll put this data to good use. In the meantime, initiate Stage Two!" they ordered. "AND NO SCREW UPS!" The screen went blank after that last statement.
All of the conspirators were visually unnerved by their boss's demand not to fail. Even Mushi seemed intimidated by her mysterious boss. "Well, you heard the man... or, lady. Let's move to Stage Two!"
Transmission interupted...
Author's Notes: What is stage two? Who is this sinister new presence? What data was stolen from the KND Mainframe? What was up with those zombies earlier? Why am I asking you all these questions? Stay tuned and review to find out!
