The 8th part of Bakugan Battle Brawlers: Runo meets Shrek
Shrek angrily walked down the castle steps, with Runo and Tigrerra after him. Shrek walked passed Donkey and Puss.
"Where are you going?" Donkey asked.
"Senorita, what is wrong with Shrek?" Puss asked.
"We met you-know-who back there," said Runo. Donkey and Puss looked at each other and went after Shrek.
At The Poison Apple, Shrek sat at the front of the bar. The ugly stepsister, Doris, came out with a bottle of milk.
"Here you go, guys," said Doris.
"Just leave the bottle," said Runo.
"Why the long faces?" Doris asked.
"It was all a misunderstanding. I should've never rescued Fiona from that tower in the first place," said Shrek.
"I can't believe you, Shrek. You said you'd risk your life for Fiona and now you're walking away from it? I can't believe you," said Runo.
"It's for the best. Her parents approve, and she gets the man she's always dreamt of," said Shrek.
"You love Fiona, Shrek," said Donkey.
"That's why I have to let her go," said Shrek.
Suddenly, behind him, there was a cloaked man. It was King Harold. Shrek looked at his friends curiously.
Inside a room, King Harold met with Fairy Godmother and Prince Charming.
"You better have a good reason for dragging us here, Harold," Fairy Godmother said.
"Well, you see, I'm afraid Fiona isn't exactly warming up to Prince Charming," said King Harold.
"FYI, not my fault," Prince Charming said.
"Of course it isn't, dear," Fairy Godmother said.
"I mean, how long do I have to keep pretending to be that dreadful ogre?" asked Prince Charming.
"I think it's best if we call this whole thing off," said King Harold.
"WHAT?" Fairy Godmother and Prince Charming asked together.
"I mean, you can't force someone to fall in love," said King Harold.
"Oh, please. I do it all the time. Have Fiona drink this, and she'll fall head over heels for the first man she sees, which will be Charming!" Fairy Godmother said, handing the king a love potion.
"No!" King Harold said.
"What was that?" Fairy Godmother asked.
"I won't do it!" said King Harold.
"Oh yes you will. Remember, Harold, I was the one who gave you what you've always wanted, and I can take it away just as easy. Is that what you want?" Fairy Godmother asked, her wand lighting up.
"Uh…no," said King Harold.
"Good boy," said Fairy Godmother.
Outside, Shrek and the others listened to the whole thing. Suddenly, they heard something about Fairy Godmother being Prince Charming's mom.
"Mom?" Donkey asked, which was loud enough for Fairy Godmother to hear. Looking outside, she saw Shrek and Runo.
"Oh, merry! A talking horse!" Shrek said.
"The ogre and the girl!" snapped Fairy Godmother.
Outside, they all tried to escape.
"Way to open your big mouth, Donkey!" snapped Runo.
"Runo, you need to run! I'll take care of Fairy Godmother!" said Shrek. Runo threw Tigrerra and hopped on, escaping just in time before she was caught by the guards.
Meanwhile, back at the swamp, Gingy and the gang were watching the coverage of the Far Far Away ball on the magic mirror. Gingy was getting bored with all these dance shows on.
"I hate these ball shows, they bore me to tears! Flip it to Wheel of Torture," he said.
"I'm not flipping anywhere, sir, until I see Shrek and Fiona!" Pinocchio said.
"Oh, wizards on you guys! Mice, pass me a buffalo wing!" said Gingy. Suddenly, the door quickly opened. Everyone gasped and turned to see Runo standing there.
"Hey! Who are you?" asked Pinocchio.
"Hey, I've seen her before! She's with Shrek. I think her name's like Regina or Reyna," said the Big Bad Wolf.
"It's Runo, and I need your help, you guys! You're Shrek's friends, right?" said Runo.
"What do you mean you need our help?" Gingy asked.
"Well, I'll make this quick. Shrek and Fiona took Donkey and I along to meet Fiona's parents, but everything went awful when this woman named Fairy Godmother showed up. Fairy Godmother wants to get rid of Shrek so she can get her son, Prince Charming, to marry Fiona. So we tried to listen in on her plan, but we were spotted and now knights captured Shrek!" Runo explained.
Gingy and his friends looked at each other with their mouths gaped.
"You mean Shrek's been captured?" asked Gingy.
"Well, yes, but I don't know exactly where they're being held," said Runo.
"Hey. I think I might know where they're at," said Pinocchio.
The others looked at the puppet.
