At the cafe, the boys waved goodbye to Zoey and the mice after they got done eating.
"Take care, little guy." Justin smiled down to Nibbles.
Nibbles smiled back and waved to Justin.
"What a sweet little mouse." Justin said about Nibbles.
"All right, let's get going." Duncan told the others.
"Duncan, remember, we are going to take the car back over to Jo's place." Double D reminded.
"Yeah, we are, right after we go to the arcade." Duncan said.
"You said after lunch!" Double D glared.
"No, I said we're gonna get lunch, go to the arcade, and then return Jo's car." Duncan smirked.
"But Duncan, you promised!" Double D glared.
"Oh, come on, let's go play a few games and then we can take it back." Duncan shrugged.
"BUT YOU SAID-" Double D was about to say.
"RELAX, WILL YOU?!" Duncan scolded. "Everything is going to be fine! Sheesh! Take a vacation once in a while."
Double D just sighed as they were heading to the arcade. As they were driving, Trent noticed something going on at Jellystone Park.
"Stop for a minute," The cool guy told Duncan. "Something is going on at Jellystone Park."
"We're going to the arcade and returning Jo's car, Trent, we can't get distracted." Duncan told him.
Trent rolled his eyes before he soon leaned over and made the car stop.
"Hey!" Duncan glared.
"You guys, there's something going on at the park, we should check it out." Trent told them.
"But why should we stop to see a bunch of stupid animals?" Eddy asked.
"Hey!" Sledgehammer glared.
"Because it's the right thing to do, I thought we were heroes, guys, not selfish people who're using a car that's not even ours." Trent glared at his friends.
"Yeah!" Justin added.
Double D also nodded in agreement.
"Ah, you guys are no fun, acting like a bunch of girls," Duncan scoffed. "Fine, we'll go check it out, but if it's nothing important, we're not helping."
The others just glared at Duncan and Eddy's behavior. The car soon stopped and they went to see what was going on in Jellystone Park.
"This is bad... Really bad..." Ranger Smith frowned. "I can't believe this."
"What's going on, Ranger Smith?" Trent asked as he came up to the park ranger.
"Oh, hello, boys," Ranger Smith replied. "Sorry, but I'm worried because some of the animals have gone missing."
"Oh, dear." Double D frowned.
"And that's not all," Ranger Smith continued. "There were two people who want to buy this park and turn it into a parking lot."
"It's not Dr. Fear, so, who could it be?" Trent wondered.
"I think they said that their names were Dr. Blight and Looter Plunder." Ranger Smith replied.
"Them?!" Justin's eyes widened.
"You know those two?" Eddy asked.
"Uh, duh, they're Captain Planet's enemies." Justin said.
"What does that have to do with anything?" Eddy asked almost like he forgot something.
"Weren't you listening?" Justin rolled his eyes. "They are the ones who kidnapped the animals and want the park for their own greedy selves!"
"Oh, why didn't you say so?" Eddy shrugged.
"Do you know where they are now?" Trent asked Ranger Smith.
"No, I don't, I'm sorry." Ranger Smith replied.
"We'll keep an eye out." Double D said.
"Thank you, boys." Ranger Smith smiled.
"Okay, we got to the park, can we go to the arcade now?" Duncan asked.
"Duncan, if you wanna go to the arcade so bad, why don't you just go and we try to help and be good people if you don't wanna do anything helpful for a change?" Trent glared.
"Who put you in charge?" Duncan deadpanned.
"Mike did." Trent said.
"Mike isn't here, Elvis, so ha." Duncan retorted.
"Friends, please don't fight!" Ed cried out. "I don't like it when my friends fight!"
"Oh, don't give me that look, big guy." Duncan glared at Ed who gave puppy dog eyes like he was going to cry.
"ED HATES IT WHEN FRIENDS TURN ON FRIENDS!" Ed cried out suddenly.
Double D just patted him on the back in comfort.
"FINE! I'LL HELP!" Duncan gave in. "Just get off my case already..."
"Yay, Duncan!" Ed beamed.
"Yay, me." Duncan rolled his eyes.
"That wasn't so bad, now was it?" Double D asked.
"Shut it, Wonder Woman." Duncan mumbled.
"Some friend." Double D glared.
"Justin has the first watch tonight, so it's no problem." Duncan shrugged.
"Can we go to the arcade now?" Eddy asked.
"I guess we can go for a little bit." Trent said.
Eddy and Duncan cheered to that before high-fiving each other. Double D just rolled his eyes and shook his head for a little bit. They soon got back into the car and drove off to the arcade.
Meanwhile with the girls...
"I have this strange feeling deep down... I'm not sure what it is though..." Jo said as pixies came over her to give her a relaxing massage with their magic.
"I wouldn't worry about it, Jo, just try to relax." Justine soothed.
"Well, all right, Babe, I'll try." Jo shrugged.
Back with the boys, they played a few games at the arcade and returned Jo's car much to Double D's relief. Later on that night, Justin was getting ready to go out on patrol since the Rowdyruff Boys were at Jaden's grandmother's house, and he was looking at the statues of Manu and Snookie, giving a prayer.
"Don't worry, you guys," Justin prayed. "I promise that you will somehow and someway be returned back to normal."
The teenage boy's cell phone then rang and he answered it.
"Hello?"
"Hey, Justin, old buddy, old pal, how is the patrol coming along?" Eddy asked.
"Does it look like that I'm on patrol right now?" Justin rolled his eyes.
"Well, how would I know?" Eddy shrugged.
"I'm in the middle of something." Justin said before hanging up and went back to what he was doing before only for his cell phone to ring again and he answered it.
"What are you doing anyway?" Eddy's voice asked.
"Eddy, not now!" Justin said before hanging up again. "Don't worry, you guys... I promise that you will return to normal... Volcano Twins powers activate!"
A bright glow came and Justin became Arceus. This would be one of the few times of Arceus patrolling without Kala as he then went into the city to explore while Manu and Snookie were stone statues due to their failed revenge plan.
"So far, so good, no crimes..." Arceus said as he sat on the roof a building to look into the city at night. "Now I know why Jo likes patrolling at night."
Everyone was walking around, not a whole lot going on just yet.
Back in the Spa...
Justine and the other girls smiled as they now had facials and were given foot massages.
"I feel so relaxed and happy... I'm so glad we came here." Justine smiled.
"Me too, I haven't felt this relaxed since I moved away from Gumboot." Cindy added.
"Make the most of it that you can, guys, man, Hilda and Zelda were right, this place is a paradise." Mike said as even she felt relaxed.
"I think you need it the most with leading us and calling a lot of the shots in our team." Justine said to the tomboy.
"If it wasn't for you, Mike, we wouldn't know what to do." June added.
"Thank you, girls, I really appreciate it." Mike replied.
"I think I need a smoothie, anyone else?" Jo asked.
The girls raised their hands as the masseurs got their smoothies.
"I hope the boys are doing okay." Cindy said.
Back at the city, Arceus was still looking around until he heard a scream. He looked down to see a female mink was being chased by two people.
"Aw, come on, Mr. Plunder wants to see you!" The man told her.
"Get away from me!" Minerva glared.
"Another day another random crime..." Arceus rolled his eyes before going to stop the people.
"Man, it's always sickos in this town, I tell ya." Minerva complained as she continued to run.
"I bet Dr. Blight will like this one." The other man said to the first man.
Minerva covered her eyes scared, but she heard screaming noises and thumping. She opened her eyes and she saw the men on the ground, groaning in pain. "How... Who did that...?" she wondered.
"You don't have to worry, no one will hurt you now." Arceus's voice told her.
"Wh-Who said that?" Minerva asked as she looked around.
"I did." Arceus said as he stepped out to see the mink.
Minerva yelped and stepped back. "You scared me for a minute there."
"It's okay, I'm not gonna hurt you like these Eco-villains." Arceus reassured.
"Well, thank you..." Minerva smiled before narrowing her eyes slightly. "You didn't just do this to get a kiss, did you?" she then asked. "Trust me, what some of you guy animals will do just to please Minerva Mink..."
"I would never do that, plus, I'm not an animal." Arceus told her.
"Are you sure?" Minerva asked.
"Uh, I think I would know about my own species." Arceus told Minerva like it was obvious.
"Sorry about that," Minerva said. "I was just being cautious, that's all."
"Understandable," Arceus replied. "But what are you doing out this late at night?"
"My boyfriend Yoink has gone missing," Minerva frowned. "He was supposed to get us breakfast this morning, but he never returned. He hasn't called me or anything."
"Uh, Yoink?" Arceus asked.
"Yes," Minerva sadly sighed. "He's a wolf dog."
"Hm... I feel like that home-schooled kid Ezekiel Farflung said something about that guy." Arceus said to the female mink.
"I miss him so much..." Minerva frowned. "I don't know what I'd do if anything happened to him... He's just the perfect boyfriend... Not like those other bozos I dated before he came into my life."
"Isn't Sargent Farsworth Farflung dead or something?" Arceus asked. "I heard about him being dead."
"Actually, no, he went back to Canada for a while to cover for his cousin who broke his leg." Minerva clarified.
"Oh, okay." Arceus said.
"Please, find him, I love him with all my heart!" Minerva begged before wiping her eyes. "I don't know what I'd do... If... If..."
"Please, calm down, don't cry, it's going to be all right," Arceus comforted her before giving her a tissue. "Here... Blow."
Minerva took a deep breath and blew her nose, almost sounding like a foghorn and held out the tissue as it dripped.
"Um... Thanks..." Arceus blinked.
"You will find him, won't you?" Minerva sniffled.
"Of course I will, I'm a hero, it's what I do." Arceus told her.
"Thank you, thank you very much," Minerva said as she came over and hugged him. "Please, bring him home safe."
"I will, now you run along home for now, I'll take care of this." Arceus told her.
"Thank you..." Minerva wiped her eyes. "Oh, Yoink, please be okay."
Arceus gently patted her on the head before he went to find Yoink for Minerva. "Now then, if I were Mike, Jo, or Sky, what would they do?" The male Volcano Twin wondered to himself. "I guess I gotta think like a wolf."
Meanwhile with the others...
"That's it, I'm taking this car back before you get us into trouble." Double D glared as he pushed the mobile away only to accidentally push it against a lamp post.
The lamp post then came loose and knocked down onto the hood of the car and broke the windshield.
"Oh, dear!" Double D yelped.
"Nice going, Sockhead, now you broke Jo's car." Eddy glared.
"Now you've done it." Duncan added.
"Oh, dear, oh, dear, I'M GOING TO DIE!" Double D panicked.
"You know, this wouldn't have happened if we just left Jo's mobile alone." Duncan said.
"I TOLD YOU ALL THAT, BUT YOU WOULDN'T LISTEN!" Double D glared. "If anyone, this is your faults for taking it out in the first place!"
"Relax, Sockhead, my dad is a mechanic, he can fix it." Eddy told him.
"AND YOU'RE JUST NOW TELLING ME THIS?!" Double D snapped.
"I wanted you to calm down first, come on, guys, to my house!" Eddy proclaimed.
They then pushed the mobile to the Sampson household to ask Eddy's dad about fixing the car.
"Glad that Jessica didn't throw this one away." Tony chuckled as he was reading a magazine for adults only.
"Hey, Dad!" Eddy called out.
"Oh, uh, hey, kids!" Tony smiled nervously and hid the magazine behind his back. "What's up?"
"We kinda need a favor." Eddy told his father.
"Sorry, I don't know Mom's code for the V-Chip to block adult programming for you, not even I can figure it out." Tony mumbled.
"Actually, Dad, can you fix Jo's car?" Eddy asked. "The windshield is broken and a lamp post came down on it thanks to ShovelChin."
"Typical Barr," Tony grumbled before smiling to his younger son. "Well, don't worry. All this needs is a new windshield and it should be good to go. It should only take me about an hour or two."
"Awesome!" Eddy smiled. "Thank you, Dad."
"Eh, no problem, kiddo." Tony chuckled as he took the car into the garage to get worked on.
"Yes, thank you, Mr. Sampson." Double D smiled in relief.
"No problem," Tony smiled back. "I'll call you when it gets done, son."
"Thanks, Dad." Eddy nodded.
"So, now what?" Duncan asked the others.
Maxwell soon walked down the street. "Hey, guys."
"Hey, it's Maxwell!" Sledgehammer smiled. "What's up with you, kid?"
"Eh, not a lot, just a little bored..." Maxwell shrugged. "My sister went to the Mall with Ashley and Robin, so video games alone feels kinda dull."
"Well, you're in luck, kid," Duncan said. "How about you hang out with us?"
"Sure, gives me something to do anyway." Maxwell shrugged.
"Come on then, kid..." Eddy said. "We don't know much about you other than that you like Cindy."
"Yeah... I do..." Maxwell admitted. "She's not like other girls."
"Come on, let's talk and get to know you more." Duncan told the blonde boy.
Maxwell nodded and followed after the boys of the Howling Wolves.
