A/N: Last time, Bloo and Sheldon's new tabloid blog rocketed them to school stardom, but has alienated their friends from them in the process? What will become of their friendships? And what will be done about Bubbles and Lilo and their CloudStore addiction?
Embarrassin' Bloggin': Part 2
The next day at lunch, the gang was eating in the cafeteria with Jenny, the Carbunkles, and several other students. They were all still very frustrated and angry at both Bloo and Sheldon for their actions.
"I really hate Bloo right now. And Sheldon," June said. "I feel that everyone's staring at my pimple now!"
"Everyone is," Buttercup said bluntly.
"Well how do you think I feel?," Jake said. "That fool caught me on tape shedding my old dragon skin! It was humiliatin', yo! Now everyone's calling me all kinds of shedding names!"
"You think you guys got it bad?," Ben Tennyson asked. "They caught us on tape running that disastrous 'super' race in the halls, you know the one between Princess and Charity?"
"Yeah. Thanks to them, Prickley gave Ben and me two weeks' detention!," Dash Parr said.
"Well you think you got it bad? Darrell and I had nine people ask us about our chocolate addiction today," Tony groaned.
"Yeah and one even called us 'the Choco-Mateys'," Darrell agreed.
"Yeah, and it's your fault, Tony and June," Tuck said.
"What how is it our faults?!," Tony protested.
"Sheldon was about to be kicked off the ToonZone, and then you advised him to report on our personal lives, while June gave him and Bloo ideas by catching you and Jenny playing with your pimple!"
"Hey, come on, guys. There's no use playing the blame game here," Daryl said.
"That's right," Jimmy agreed. "What we need to do is find out how to put a stop to all this."
"Hey Tony, Darrell. Thought you might need this. Be sure to save some for dessert," Sperg said as he and some of the school bullies walked up and placed a giant industrial-sized bottle of chocolate syrup in front of the two, before walking away laughing.
"WE DO NOT HAVE A CHOCOLATE ADDICTION!," Tony shouted. Just then a bunch of young photographers, ran up and started snapping pictures, causing the gang and others to shoo them off.
"Who were those guys?!," Darrell asked.
"The ToonZone Padawans," Tommy said. "The junior members of the site."
"Yeah, I heard they're helping out Sheldon and Bloo on their webshow too," Ash said.
"Great now, those two sellouts have pic off us with this a giant industrial-sized bottle of chocolate syrup. Something's gotta be done about this," Darrell said.
"Well thanks for the summation, Captain Obvious," Bart snapped, still very annoyed about the rumors about him and Dionne's relationship going around.
"I think we just have to show Sheldon and Bloo that we're not gonna be their friends anymore until they stop exploiting us," Jenny suggested.
"I agree!," Mac said. Everyone then noticed Bubbles and Lilo ogling over a new gadget.
"Let me guess: from CloudStore?," Danny asked.
"You got it," Bubbles replied.
"What is it?," Timmy asked.
"It's the Juice-X2GO, the world most powerful portable juicer, for juicing on the go," Lilo said.
"It can juice any food you put in it. Watch," Bubbles said as she grabbed Mac's burrito, put it into the opening and then pressed into the machine with the top. Seconds later, a brownish-like liquid poured out of a slot into a cup. The students present all looked perplexed at this.
"You juiced my burrito," Mac said staring at the cup of liquid Mexican delicacy.
"Duh, why chew what you can drink?," Lilo said. "It's the future in the making!"
She and Bubbles hi-fived each other as everyone looked on.
"Well, one thing Sheldon and Bloo did get right: you two are seriously addicted to CloudStore," Dionne said.
"And speak of the devils themselves," Dionne said as she pointed to the two walking towards the gang's table with their lunch and backpacks in hand.
"Hey guys, how've you all been?" Sheldon said as he and Bloo sat down, only to be met with angry glares from everyone. Bloo then noticed the industrial-sized bottle of chocolate syrup near Tony and Darrell.
"Dudes, you really need all that chocolate?," he said as he and Sheldon chuckled. This peeved Tony and Darrell so much, however, that they angrily grabbed the duo's backpacks and threw them to another point of the room.
"Hey!," the two both snipped, standing in protest. But just as they were about to sit back down, Dash Parr grabbed their chairs right from under them, causing them to fall to the floor. As they tried to get up, Buttercup unwrapped their lunches and tossed them to the ground before they could stop her.
"Geez, what's wrong with you guys," Sheldon protested.
"What's wrong is you guys and you embarrassing us on your stupid blog show! We've had enough!," Tony snapped.
"Seriously guys, it's not funny anymore, okay?," Daryl agreed, with the others all voicing their displeasure as well.
"Hey, hold on! You guys embarrass yourselves," Bloo shouted in protest. "Sheldon and me just catch the moments on tape and show them to the world."
"Well, we don't want our most embarrassing moments shown to the world. If we did, we'd have sent them to America's Funniest Home Videos or something," Timmy said. Sheldon and Bloo smirked as they "started to ponder" the idea. "Don't even think about it you two!"
"And we've all decided that we're not gonna be your friends anymore until you two stop," Brad Carbunkle said.
"Naga pigoni!," Stitch snapped in agreement.
"Fine, if that's the way you want it. Doesn't bother us," Bloo shrugged.
"Yeah, lots of other kids want to be our friends now! Smart and attractive kids!," Sheldon said. "Come on, Bloo. Let's beat it!"
"See ya on the web, nitpicks!"
With that, the two got up and left in a huff, leaving the gang and the others still upset.
"You want us to juice your calzone, Danny?," Bubbles asked.
"I really do not, Bubbles," Danny replied.
Later on, Bubbles and Lilo were in Spongebob's classroom, placing dirty golf balls into a new CloudStore gadget and washing them clean, when Spongebob entered the room.
"Hey Bubbles, Lilo," he said as he noticed the gadget. "You know you're both supposed to be in your Paranormal Physics class right–Is that from the CloudStore?"
"Yep! It's the Ball Washer!," Bubbles said as she placed another ball inside.
"Do you guys even play golf?"
"We do now," Lilo said. "Thanks to CloudStore."
"Yeah, about that…some of the other teachers and students think you're buying too much stuff from CloudStore," Spongebob said with concern. "I heard you've been borrowing money from people too."
"Not since we started using the emergency credit cards that the Professor and Nani gave us," Bubbles said.
"But still…"
"And thanks to this Ball Washer, any golf, tennis, base, and softball, will be clean in a jiffy. Watch."
The two girls then worked the machine's magic on a dirty baseball, making it as fresh as it was when it cam out of the box. Still Spongebob remained very concerned.
"Okay you two, we have got to talk, because it's obvious that–," he started to say.
"And look what we got with it: the World's Lightest Set of Golf Clubs," Lilo cut him off as she brought over a golf bag with clubs inside. "Here pick it up."
"Well, come on does a person really need a set of clubs th–Wow, these are so light!," Spongebob said in amazement.
Back at Krusty Towers, in Apartment 7K, Tony and Daryl were doing their homework, when suddenly Tony's phone rang.
"Tony Clark aka Yo-Yo Boy speaking," he answered it. He immediately recognized the frantic voice on the other line. "Isabella? What is it? What's wrong? ... They did what?! How?! Okay, I'm gonna go check on it right now."
He hung up as Daryl asked, "What is it? Who was that?"
"Isabella. Sheldon and Bloo got to her, I think. She said to look at the ToonZone," Tony said as he logged onto ToonSchool's website and clicked the Toonarazzi blog.
"Welcome to Toonarazzi! Starring Sheldon O. Lee…"
"And Blooregard Q. Kazoo!"
The two groaned at the web-show's intro as footage of Sheldon and Bloo meeting in the show's room with the ToonZone Padawans.
"Wait, wait…you've got what?!," Sheldon asked with a chuckle.
"I got Isabella, with those other Fireside Girls and some other girls together in their troop HQ and…well you've got to see this!," one Padawan
Bloo then pressed a button on his remote, and the TV inside the room cut to the said footage, which was then broadcast on the web-show:
The Padawan's camera shows inside the Fireside Girls troop HQ, where Isabella, the other members of her troop, and several other non-Fireside female students had gathered. Apparently, Isabella is in the middle of another you-know-who related crisis.
"Come on, just tell him how you feel already!," Ginger Hirano says.
"Yeah, stop being so scared," Brianna Buttowski agrees.
"No, I can't," Isabella whines.
"Why not?," Gretchen asks.
"Come on, what do you have to lose?," Jessica Wright adds.
"Well what if he doesn't return my feelings in the way I feel for him? Then our friendship will be ruined! I don't what to do," Isabella whines.
"Come on, Isa. If you don't stop think about the bad, how are you ev–," Gwen Tennyson starts to say, before she glances over and sees the Padawan with the camera in the window. "Hey, there's a dud with a camera in your window!"
Everyone's attention turns to the Padawan, who quickly cuts and runs off.
"Hey, this is private Fireside property!," Adyson Sweetwater snaps.
"Yeah, you'd better run, I'm gonna kill you!," Jessica shouts.
"I can't believe this!," Isabella gasps. "Did he get what I just said?!"
As the footage ended, Tony closed his laptop as he and Daryl growled in frustration.
Just then, there was a knock at the door. Tony opened it and Ash and his mother Delia entered the Clark's apartment carrying some bags.
"Hey, Ash, Mrs. K," Tony greeted them.
"Hey, guys," Ash said. "Mom and I brought some food over."
"Including my region-famous curry," Delia said, as she and Ash placed the bags down on the table.
"Well thanks, we could use a good meal tonight," Daryl groaned as he shifted through the bags of food, and took out a small mug of curry.
"Something wrong, boys?," Delia asked, noticing their upset looks.
"You could say that. You know our friend Sheldon?," Tony asked.
"That lanky kid with the obsession with the robot girl?"
"Yeah, you see he and Bloo –"
Just then, there was another knock at the door.
"You expecting anyone else?," Ash asked.
"No," Daryl said as he walked over and turned the knob. Before he could open the door however, it burst open, causing him to spill the curry all over the front of his clothing. Timmy then dashed into the room, frantic and panicked.
"Aw, geez!," Daryl squealed looking at his now-stained clothes.
"Hold on," Delia said grabbing a towel, wetting it, and trying to wipe down the curry off Daryl's clothing.
"Timmy, calm down, what's wrong?," Tony said to Timmy who was speaking really fast
"Guyspleaseyougottahidemethepadawansarecomingforme!," Timmy babbled.
"What did you say?," Ash asked.
Before Timmy could say anything, a group of ToonZone Padawans appeared in the doorway and began snapping pictures of everyone in the apartment, focusing especially on Daryl.
"Hey, what are you doing/Get out of here/Beat it!," everyone screamed at the Padawans, who eventually retreated from the doorway when Daryl used his shadow-powers to create a giant fist.
"Okay, this HAS to stop!," Tony said as he stormed off.
"What has to stop? Who are those people and why do they want photos of you?," Delia asked, still oblivious to what was up.
The next day, the pictures from the Clark's apartment appeared on Toonarazzi, with Bloo saying in a video, "Man, Daryl Lente has turned into quite a slob, don't ya think?"
"Yeah, so much that he needs somebody else's mom to clean up for him," Sheldon chuckled. Tony, Daryl, Timmy and Ash watched this on the former's laptop, and were angrier than ever.
"Of course, you realize this means war," Daryl said sinisterly.
"Not to worry my brother, because I have an idea!," Tony chuckled.
Later in the halls, most of the TS gang, and many other fellow students were gathered with video and picture cameras in hand waiting on something.
"Shouldn't they be here by now?," Buttercup asked.
"Yeah, what's taking them all so long?," Tuck added. "Gym class/Free period ended eight minutes"
"Patience. It takes time to get from the gym and the Chill Room to here you know," Daryl said.
"Yeah, and these guys are pros, man. The best of the best," Bart added. "I know, 'cause I'm one of them."
"Yeah, and my troop isn't the top Fireside Girls troop in the Tri-State Area for nothing!," Isabella said.
"Hey, at least I'm not the one who had someone else's mom trying to clean me, or almost blabbed my secret crush to the world!," Tuck said.
"Never speak of it!," Daryl and Isabella said.
"Hey, everyone, they're coming!," Phineas, the lookout, called.
"Quick, cameras on and ready!," Tony said as everyone turned on and readied their cameras. Moments later, Dash Parr and Ben Tennyson as XLR8, zoomed up stopping in front of the cameras.
"We got them," Dash said.
"Got all of his clothes before he even knew what hit him," XLR8 said. just then Ginger, Adyson, Gretchen, and Brianna came running up with make-up kits in their hands.
"We did it!," Brianna exclaimed. "He looks…'FABULOUS!'"
Moments later, Sheldon and Bloo came running down the hall angrily; the former was dripping wet and wearing nothing but a towel, while the latter had make-up and lipstick all over his face.
"Hey, this isn't funny, get this stuff of my face!," Bloo yelled.
"And you guys better give me back my clothes before I-," Sheldon snapped as they turned the corner only to be met by many recording cameras and picture flashes. "AAHHH! Turn those cameras off!"
"Aw, why Sheldon? You look so cute!," Jenny laughed as she aimed her video camera at them.
"Dance for us boys!," Buttercup said, snapping more pics of them.
"Guys, give me back my clothes," Sheldon protested.
"And get this make-up off my face," Bloo echoed.
"Should we?," Tony asked. Everyone paused for a second, then shook their heads and said, "Nah/No way!"
"No I think we need to put these videos online," Blossom said.
"And the pictures too," Brad Carbunkle said.
"Wha-NO!," Bloo screamed in terror.
"You can't do that!," Sheldon yelled, frantically.
"Sorry, guys. Like you said, the people what to see what they want to see," Timmy said.
"And right now they want to see you: wearing make-up and almost in the buff," Danny said.
"I mean it, you can not put these videos or these pictures online!"
Everyone thought for a second, and then Daryl said, "Okay, we'll kill the videos…"
"And the pictures…" Jake added.
"After YOU two kill Toonarazzi!," June finished.
"Wha-NO WAY!," Sheldon and Bloo both snapped.
"YES WAY!," everyone shouted back.
"My blog is finally a hit after being a bore for so long! Toonarazzi is the only thing keeping it on the ToonZone!," Sheldon snapped.
"Yeah, you can't take that away from us!," Bloo said.
"Okay, then Bloo, if that's how you want it," Mac said as everyone continued filming and snapping pics.
"No, no, no, wait!," the two shouted.
"So you guys gonna stop, or do we have to make you viral?," Jimmy asked.
"Fine, you win. We'll stop, and I'll just go back to being a bore and lose my blog on Toonarazzi," Sheldon sighed sadly. Bloo took notice of this immediately.
"Now see what you've done. You've ruined him. I mean, if we can't do Toonarazzi, what can we do for his blog to keep it popular enough to stay on ToonZone."
Tony and Daryl then glanced at each other and grinned with an idea.
Later on, on the school site, Toonarazzi had been converted into Lockdown: Stories of Detention, a series focusing on the lives of students who were always getting detention: Snobs, bullies, rebels, etc.
"So, Mr. Buttowski, what is your most common way of getting detention?," a Padawan asked Brad Buttowski in Detention Room 1.
"Mostly picking on nerds like you, and dilweeds like my brother Kick," Brad replied. "And sometimes dilweedettes like my sister Brianna."
"You pick on girls too?"
"When it calls for it."
The screen then changed back to the Toonarazzi-turned-Lockdown studio with Sheldon and Bloo still hosting.
"Wow, now that is one everyman bully," Sheldon said. "And that's why he deserves to be on…LOCKDOWN! Starring Sheldon O. Lee!"
"And Blooregard Q. Kazoo!," Bloo added.
The next day, the rest of the gang had finally staged an intervention for Bubbles and Lilo regarding their CloudStore addiction. Professor Utonium and Nani had already taken away the girl's emergency credit cards, but the girls were still reluctant to stop shopping from the place and had tried borrowing money from people again but without success (due to having been told not to by Mickey and Prickly, who'd been notified by Utonium and Nani). The two girls were taking a last look at their CloudStore catalogs, and starting to cry over them.
"Okay, come on, let me have it," Danny said, extending his arm as a signal to give them up.
"But maybe we can convince people to let us borrow money again," Bubbles pleaded.
"Or maybe we can talk Nani and Professor Utonium into giving us our credit cards back," Lilo said.
"Come on Bubbles, Lilo. It's time to say goodbye to CloudStore," Tony said.
"Don't you think that's the right thing to do?," Daryl asked.
Reluctantly, Bubbles and Lilo hugged the catalogs one last time before handing them to Danny. Danny then ripped them in half several times, causing the girls to squeal in despair with each rip. He then gave them to Jake and Ash. Jake transformed his head into dragon form and used his fire breath to incinerate his pieces, while Ash had his Pignite and Charizard incinerate his pieces with Flamethrower. Both continued until the pieces were nothing but ashes.
At this, Bubbles and Lilo were on the verge of breaking down. Blossom and Buttercup quickly went to support their sister, while Mac and Stitch went to comfort Lilo.
"It's over now," Blossom said.
"It's gonna start to get better I promise," Mac added.
"Mega fin, Lilo," Stitch added.
"Why don't you two hang in the Chill Room with us, take your mind off it?," Tony suggested.
"Okay," Bubbles and Lilo said with a sigh. The gang then left for the Chill Room silently. As they did, the Snob Squad came up, with some new gadgets in hand.
"Wow, those two twerps were right, shopping on CloudStore is the best!," Vicky snapped.
"Yeah, all these so-called meaningless gadgets are so wicked cool!," Princess said. "And all we need are our infinite credit cards and our cell phones to get them!"
"But don't you think our parents will get mad from all the crazy spending?," Brad Morton asked.
The Snobs all thought on it, then shock their heads and said, "Nahhh!" before going off to buy more gadgets from CloudStore.
A/N: So, Sheldon and Bloo have learned their lesson about exploiting their frends, and Bubbles and Lilo are now on their road to recovery from their CloudStore addiction. But if you thought that was fun, just wait for the long overdue ToonSchool Season 1 finale! Coming next time!
Also, some sad news from the tween entertainment industry: Producer and writer Chris Thompson, who created and executive produced the Disney Channel dance-driven sitcom Shake It Up!, died June 26th at the age of 63. Thompson, in creating the Disney Channel show, helped launch and boost the careers of stars Bella Thorne, Zendaya, and many others. He was also known for his work on the 70s/80s TV series Laverne & Shirley, and the Whoopi Goldberg film, Jumpin' Jack Flash.

In loving memory of Chris Thompson
(1952 - June 26th, 2015)
Shake it up in heaven, dawg.
