'...and it looked like it was the end for us!'

'Pikachu!' ('Oh my!')

'That's horrible'

'Then I placed Fallapart's head back in its place and he said "That's much better. Thank you"'

Night had fallen on the Piquel house, and Bonkers was telling both Marylin and Pikatwo of his cases with Lucky.

'And that did it. A "thank you" was all Pops needed. He renewed Toon Henge to its true beauty and returned all the toons to their normal selves, never to fade away again. He reminded us that a "Thank you" is very important and should always be used for everything friends do'

Pikatwo couldn't help but realise this "End of Toon Time" story reminded him so much of Mewtwo. This "Pops Clock" had tried wiping out all the toons because he never felt appreciated by them just like had Mewtwo tried wiping out all the humans because they had used him.

But his thoughts were interrupted by Bonkers.

'How bout I tell you about the time we helped that giant toon louse?'

'It's bedtime, little missy'

Lucky had walked into the room.

'Aww Dad!' Marylin gave a playful whine. 'Bonkers was telling us stories'

'Come on sweetheart. It's 11:30'

'Woah! Lucky's right, lil puddin!' Bonkers looked at his watch.

Lucky came over to tuck his daughter in bed while Bonkers sat on his sleeping bag with Pikatwo next to his side.

'Goodnight Dad'

'Goodnight honey' He kissed his daughter.

Bonkers ruffled Bonkers hair playfully.

'G'night Bonkers. And you too, Pikatwo'

'Pika' '(G'night')

'Goodnight Lucky'

As soon as Lucky exited the room, Bonkers gave a light kiss on Marylin's forehead.

Pikatwo giggled at them.

'Pikachu pi pika chu chu' ('You two make great friends')

'Cute ain't it?' Bonkers turned to Pikatwo.

'Pikatwo headed to the little bed set up for him in the corner of the room. It felt comfortable enough. He laid down and let his eyes close...

A loud rumble woke the little clone.

The alarm clock on Marylin's desk read 1:30. Pikatwo had obviously been asleep for a while.

A thunderstorm had brewed outside.

Normally Pikatwo was used to these storms. They happened all the time back at Mount Quena. Usually typhoons were very common. But he always had Meowthtwo to cuddle up to whenever they happened.

Unfortunatly Meowthtwo wasn't with him.

But then again there was Bonkers.

So Pikatwo climbed out of his bed and made his way towards Bonkers' sleeping bag.

BOOM!

Pikatwo covered his head for a second. Then shaking, he continued.

'Pika'? ('Bonkers?')

He nudged the sleeping bobcat.

'Pika? Pikachu pi?' ('Bonkers? Are you awake?')

BOOM!

Pikatwo scurried under Bonkers' arm. This caused him to wake up.

'Pikatwo?' He sat up and rubbed his eyes.

'Pikachu pi pi pika?' (You're not afraid of this?')

Bonkers noticed the sound of rain.

'You're afraid of a little storm? Awwww...it won't hurt y-'

BOOM!

Bonkers made a cat screech and clutched Pikatwo to his chest.

'Hehehehe! It's just a little storm...'

Pikatwo whimpered. 'Pika pi...' ('I'm afraid')

'Awwwwww...' Bonkers cradled the little clone.

'Bonkie will take care of ya, little guy'

'Pika? ('Really?')

Bonkers understood.

'Yeah...' He held him closer.

Pikatwo's heart melted.

BOOM!

He snuggled further into his friend's hold.

'It's ok' whispered Bonkers. And he began to hum a lullaby while rocking him tenderly.

Pikatwo giggled a bit. And yawned.

'Gosh this bobcat is so nice to me' thought Pikatwo as he closed his eyes. 'He knows I'm a clone, but he doesn't care. He's more interested in making me feel at home'

The thunderstorm outside was settling a little. Once every now and then there would be a loud kaboom, but Pikatwo had ignored those and fallen asleep to Bonkers' gentle humming.

Bonkers was about to carry the little mouse back to his bed. But stopped. Pikatwo looked too peaceful and felt so cuddly in his arms.

So Bonkers laid him down next to him in his sleeping bag and put his arms around the clone.

Pikatwo stirred a little and smiled in his sleep.

'Sweet dreams' Bonkers whispered before he too went to sleep.
