Rugrats in Japan: Grown Up Arc: Chapter 1: Masuyo Reikokuna and The Snake Princess!
Kuki and San Torameiyo entered the hotel lobby to meet up with everyone. Next to the two are an elderly man who is in his late 50s and has a ninja uniform on, a Japanese girl who is about Alisa Carmichael's height with brown hair, a man with a Kyudo uniform, and a woman with black hair and a Kenjutsu uniform. Stu approached San
"You said you and Kuki want to discuss something with us" Stu said.
"Indeed we do" San said.
"First, we would like to introduce some friends of ours " Kuki said. She gestured to the bearded man. "Everyone, meet Hayate Kyomi" "He is the sensei of a ninjutsu dojo down the street from here".
"Hello, everyone" Hayate said. "It is a delight to meet you in person".
"Pretty much a delight to meet you, too" Grandpa Lou said happily.
Kuki then gestured to the girl with brown hair. "And this girl's name is-"
"Rinya Senshi" Alisa Carmichael cut in happily.
"I see you know her" Kuki said, smiling.
"She's my penpal from this country" Alisa said. She went to Rinya Senshi. Rinya smiled.
"It's good to see you again, Alisa" Rinya said, hugging Alisa.
"The same to you, my friend" Alisa said, hugging Rinya.
"How's your brother doing" Alisa asked Rinya?
"He's doing pretty fine" Rinya said.
Kuki then gestured to the man with the Kyudo uniform on. "This is Hondo Sanji" She said.
"He's my son's Kyudo teacher". Lunsford said happily.
"And what a fine student Jimmy is" Hondo said happily.
Kuki then gestured to the woman with black hair and the kenjutsu uniform on. "This is Nico Hana". "She is the sensei of a kenjutsu class down the street from here".
"Konnichiwa". "Hajimemashite" Nico asked?
"We're doing pretty good" Kira Finster said. "And you"?
"I'm doing fine" Nico said, smiling.
Chaz looked at San. "So what do you want to talk to us about" Chaz asked San?
"Is it about the Chihiro Daycare Center" Howard DeVille asked? "the daycare center where the babies are in slavery"?
"I still don't know why people are allowing that accursed center to exist" Didi Pickles said with worry in her voice.
"It's more than that" San said. "But we need to discuss it in one of the hotel rooms, or else, we will be put in danger".
"What kind of danger" Betty DeVille asked?
"We'll explain that to you once we get to one of the rooms" Lunsford answered.
Once everybody went upstairs to the hotel room, room 978, at the very top, Kuki Torameiyo gathered everyone in a circle in the room.
"So why is there slavery inside that daycare center" Drew Pickles asked? Then he thought to himself "And why did I even bother taking Angelica to such a dangerous place"?
"To answer that, we must tell you a story about a certain man: a crime lord named Masuyo Reikokuna" Kuki said.
"Masuyo Reikokuna" Lucy Carmichael asked? "I've heard of him".
"Even in the United States, his treachery is known" Randy said.
"What else is there to know about this crime lord aside from the fact that the Japanese Police Department keeps failing to catch him" Betty DeVille asked, annoyed?
"For one thing, His entire clan is evil" Lunsford said. "And that evil is being spread in multiple parts of the world".
"That includes the Chihiro Daycare Center where two of his four daughters are at" Francesca DeVille said.
"Really" Howard asked, afraid?
"And that's not all" San said. "Our clan, the Torameiyo clan, is currently at war with Masuyo's clan".
"And how are you doing on that, so far" Didi asked?
"We're doing okay, so far" Kuki said. "But Lunsford's clan might be joining us in this war".
"LUNSFORD'S clan" Betty exclaimed, shocked!? "Howie and I are in Lunsford's clan". She turned her head towards Lunsford and Francesca in worry. "Lunsford, Francesca, what are you doing to be joining them in this war"?
"We are simply helping them uncover Masuyo's recent wrong doings" Lunsford said.
"We made an oath to Kuki and San that we would help them out, even if it costs us our lives" Francesca said.
"You are CRAZY" Betty said. "Not only are you putting yourselves in danger, you also might be putting me, Howie, Phil, Lil, and even my relatives in danger".
"We know it may seem crazy, but we have to do what we can to help our friends" Lunsford said. "And we need to be there for them".
Betty just sighed in defeat.
"What has Masuyo done to you people, so far" Stu asked Hayate, Nico, Rinya, Kuki, San, and Hondo?
"For one thing, Masuyo once killed the parents of one of my students" Hayate said.
"And another thing is that he killed my aikido sensei not so long ago" Kuki said angrilly.
"But one of the worst things he has done was give his daughter poisonous snakes as her armor" Hondo said.
"Poisonous snakes" Didi asked shocked?
Hondo nodded. "One time, Jimmy DeVille called me and told me that one of his playmates at the daycare center got bitten by a rattlesnake. "By the time I got to the center, it was to late for the playmate". "She died a painful death when I got to her". "Jimmy then told me that the snake came from Masuyo's daughter, Mudana's clothing". "I asked the daughter named Mudana to take off her clothes, but I saw no snakes on her". "After I got out of the daycare center, I heard a couple of kids talking about Mudana's snake armor and they even went so far as to call her a snake princess".
"A snake princess, huh" Chaz asked? "That sounds pretty terrifying".
"All right". "Enough about snakes" Drew said. "Anyone else want to tell us what Masuyo did".
"I'll tell you" Rinya said, with a hint of anger in her voice. Everyone looked at Rinya.
"Masuyo... ordered my father to kill my mother" Rinya said, with tears coming out of her angry eyes.
