Chapter 4: Tlaloc Gets the Scythe
As Billy who was brainwashed by Tlaloc's juju powers carried the Grim Reaper's scythe throughout the jungle in search of the dark temple where Tlaloc resided, Tlaloc could sense that his pawn had done what he was ordered to do.
"Excellent" said Tlaloc looking through a telescope from the dark temple, "that big nosed pawn of mine has just handed me over the Grim Reaper's scythe. With its power, I can finally merge juju power with the Reaper's scythe, making myself the ultimate weapon known as the Juju Scythe!"
Tlaloc quickly then heads down the dark temple near the entrance where Billy who was still drooling quite a big all the way toward his temple handed him the scythe.
"You idiot" said Tlaloc as he noticed a trial of drool that leads right toward the temple, "you are going to lead my enemy to my temple, but perhaps this may fit into my plans nicely in spite of your outright idiocy. Once the likes of Tak sees that I have merged my juju staff with the Reaper's scythe, I'll be able to wield the Juju Scythe against him and anyone else who dares stand in my way."
Meanwhile, back at the Pupununu village, Grim was freaking out as his scythe was missing and Billy was gone.
"So where could me scythe have gone to?" asked Grim as he began to freak out in front of everybody.
"Billy must have took the scythe" replied Mandy as she came into the scene with Jimmy and his friends, "hasn't he?"
"How can you tell that the big nosed kid took the scythe?" asked the Chief.
"It's not very hard that Billy's drool is all over the place, even leading directly where Billy may have taken the scythe" replied Mandy.
"Say Jimmy, Mandy seems to be a better detective than you were when you were trying to find my Ultralord" added Sheen.
"Shut it" replied Jimmy in a rude manner.
"I say Tak, it should be your duty to go help these people get the Grim Reaper's scythe back" said the Chief.
"What, me?" asked Tak.
"It was also your duty to watch over this Billy and attempt to cure the juju power that made him drool quite a lot, along with being brainwashed" added the Chief.
"If Billy was brainwashed" said Grim, "then that means the one who has brainwashed him must be the one who took me scythe."
"But who on Earth would want to use juju powers and also combine it with the power of the Grim Reaper's scythe?" asked Cindy.
"Tak, do you have any foes that you have fought before in the past?" asked Jimmy to Tak.
"Well, there's this shaman known as Tlaloc that I have fought before" replied Tak.
"Oh no, that can't be good, if your foe Tlaloc manages to convert juju power with the powers of my scythe, then I think something very bad is likely going to happen" replied Grim.
"You mean that this Tlaloc may end up being the ruler of the world?" asked Mandy.
"Bingo" replied Grim.
"Then I say you people should get going and find the Reaper's scythe" said the Chief, "I think Lok should also join you, but you two priests can stay behind."
"Me, go against Tlaloc?" asked Lok as he began to cower.
"Come on Lok" replied Mandy as she snapped her fingers and ordered Carl and Libby to grab Lok and drag him away.
"Lok doesn't want to fight Tlaloc!" cried Lok as he attempted to pull himself away.
Meanwhile as the group led by Mandy and Grim followed the trial of drool left by Billy, Tlaloc was quite busy trying to conjure up a juju spell that'll convert his juju power staff with the likes of the Grim Reaper's scythe.
"I can't believe that I tried every spell in this spell book" sighed Tlaloc who was just about to give up on combing the powers of the scythe and his juju staff, "even as someone as evil as myself can't be able to come up with something this difficult."
Then Tlaloc had an idea if he were to end his brainwashing control over Billy to make him search for the predicament he was in. So he did so as Billy woke up to find his own drool all over himself.
"Where the heck am I?" asked Billy.
"Billy, I need your help" replied Tlaloc as he gave an evil grin.
"What sort of help do you need, do you need me to be a volunteer for your magic show again?" asked Billy.
"Uh, no" replied Tlaloc, "I need your help to combine the powers of the Grim Reaper's scythe with my juju power staff to make it the Juju Scythe."
"Why do you want to combine the powers of Grim's scythe and your juju staff?" asked Billy.
"Uh, to be a better magician?" replied Tlaloc.
"Wow, sounds great!" replied Billy then he rushes over to Tlaloc's spell book, "Let me see what I can do, I did something like this when I played Pat the Baker."
"I just can't believe that worked" said Tlaloc.
Meanwhile as the group led by Mandy and Grim were following the trial of drool that Billy left, members of the group were being quite grossed out by this experience.
"Does he always do this when he's brainwashed?" asked Libby to Grim.
"Yea, I'm afraid so" replied Grim, "last time Billy drooled like this was when Eris used a bunch of evil toy teddy bears to brainwash the population. That's before I used me scythe to end her scheme."
"A-a-are we getting close?" asked Lok who was quite afraid to face Tlaloc again.
"Shouldn't be too far" replied Mandy, "knowing how dumb Billy is, he'll lead us right to where Tlaloc must be hiding."
"Look, I think I see an opening" said Carl as he noticed a clearing in the distance were the trial of drool could be seen.
"Wow, I must say Tlaloc has an impressive hideout" said Jimmy as he noticed the large dark temple.
"Stay on your guard" said Tak, "Tlaloc is my arch-nemesis and I think it would not be wise to barge in."
"You mean like this?!" shouted Sheen as he raced out in the open.
Before Sheen could go any further, Tak used his juju staff to halt Sheen's movement and then pulled him back where the rest of the group was.
"What do you think you're trying to do?!" cried Lok, "Do you want Tlaloc to know that we're here?"
"I don't know, I just felt like running" replied Sheen.
"We have to at least come up with a trap for Tlaloc" said Jimmy.
"It's about time you put that big brain of yours to work besides using it to meddle into mine affairs" said Grim as everybody huddled up.
