The Loonatics found themselves inside a cave, there were three tunnels with glowing lights, yellow, orange, and blue.
"So, uh, which one's the lucky tunnel, huh?" Ace asked.
"Any clues, Tweetums?" Lexi added.
"Sir Duck and Sir Akito are supposed to guess," Clone Tweetums replied. "That's what makes it fun!"
"Well, go ahead, guys, guess." Estelle said.
"I'm through havin' robot stuff fun!" Duck snarled, gripping the clone, then forced it onto the ground. "Which one?"
"It's number three!" Clone Tweetums replied.
Duck teleported to the tunnels while Akito rushed over by his side.
"Or is it number one?" Clone Tweetums then pondered.
"I can already tell that Duck will be feeling a whole lot of pain while Akito will feel like it tickled, but not literally." Estelle said.
"Mm-hmm..." Eloise agreed as Ditto rested on her head.
Duck came to one tunnel which had a trap door and a bunch of rocks fell on top of him and Akito.
"I got this." Akito said, barely even hurt.
"You're despicable..." Duck grumbled.
"Yeah, yeah." Akito smirked.
They then tried another tunnel that they could walk through.
"Ooh~" Clone Tweetums replied in awe. "This is it, Sir Duck and Sir Akito! The rendezvous point. Isn't it wonderful?"
"Oh, sure, it sure is wonderful." Akito said sarcastically.
"So where's the doorbell?" Duck added as they came up to double doors.
"You have to figure out which wever to pull." Clone Tweetums replied, gesturing to the four levers by the door.
"I'll do it." Akito said.
"Oh, no, you don't, I ain't fallin' for that one again." Duck declined however.
"Don't worry, Duck, this time, I'll do this one by myself." Akito told him.
"Good luck, kiddo," Sylth Vester advised. "Choose wisely."
Akito began to think of which lever to choose so he wouldn't set off anymore traps. However, the room shook. Sylth Vester and Duck laughed at Akito, thinking that was wrong, but rocks fell on top of them instead of Akito.
"Way to go, Akito!" Ace praised as the doors opened for them instantly.
"Good guessing." Estelle agreed.
"It helps when you're the son of an ace detective." Akito smiled.
"Very funny..." Duck mumbled as he emerged from the rocks.
"I know how you feel..." Sylth Vester added.
"Hey, guys, get a load of this." Lexi said once she found a room.
"What you find, Lexi?" Estelle asked.
"Check this out." Lexi said.
The others came over and looked into the room to see a very high throne with a few egg robots wheeling around, there was also a large framed portrait of Princess Ixta at a younger age, holding a golden container that had an unhatched egg on the inside.
"So... Exactly where is the Bird of the Hour?" Akito asked.
"I'm Sweet Tweetums hiding on Pwanet Bwanc." the throne turned around to show the bird prince in his royal robes as a couple of egg bots came to his sides to serve him.
Ditto saw the bird prince and came right up to him, happy to know he was alright.
"That's it!" Sylth Vester stormed over. "Kiss your royal butt goodbye!" Suddenly, the floor opened up around him and he fell right through it and a splash sound was heard.
"Hope he can swim." Felicity whispered.
"So this is where you've been hiding." Akito said, flying over the trapdoor.
"You and Mr. Duck sure took your sweet time comin' here." Tweetums looked up at him.
"All right, I gotta do one check first." Akito said, activating his X-Ray vision to see if this was a decoy or the real Tweetums.
And where to his relief, this Tweetums really was the real Tweetums.
"Yep, you're the real Tweetums." Akito smiled.
"In the feathers." Tweetums smiled proudly. "I knew this would be the place where the bad, bad men would never find me and I kept the royal scepter. In the wrong hands, the royal scepter can be very, very dangerous... The scepter is the key to Wormhole Central."
"Loonatics..." a hauntingly familiar voice came up. "Thanks for leading the way... Too bad you wont' be staying..." Optimatus came up as Vincent carried Sylth Vester and then flung him forward.
"Optimatus, Vincent." Akito glared.
"We aren't alone." Vincent folded his arms with a sick smile.
"He's right," Optimatus added. "Deuce?"
"I hope you don't mind, but I brought along a few guests." Deuce stepped over, then summoned his robots to attack the Loonatics.
"Yeah, luckily, we got them without any trouble at all." Captain Pollution said.
"Sufferin' Succotash!" Sylth Vester backed up with the good guy heroes.
More and more robots swarmed in and ran for them.
"Wow, that's a lot of robots." Eloise said.
"Looks like this party's gettin' a little lop-sighted," Ace said as he took out his sword. "Guardian Strike Sword, it's showtime!"
Akito also drew out his sword, activating it with Ace.
"You can do it, guys!" Estelle cheered.
"Robo Soldiers!" Duece called. "Obliterate them!"
The robot army then summoned their cannon arms and shot laser blasts towards the Loonatics.
"Incoming!" Estelle shouted.
Ace and Akito then used their swords to deflect the blasts and shoot back against the robots. Sylth Vester used his armor to deflect and protect himself against the lasers. The robots then came for the other members. Eloise screamed as she ran one way, but a robot came to her, and she turned the other way, and another robot was in her way, and she was nearly trapped.
"Hey, stay away from our cousin!" Estelle glared at the robots.
The robots turned to her, allowing Eloise to get out of their way. Estelle then began to run and then used her brain blasts on them. The robots seemed to destroy from the blasts. Eloise then continued to run as the robots were distracted.
"Where are you going?" Duck asked.
"Away!" Eloise said. "I don't know what to do... I don't have powers like you guys."
"Yes, you do! Don't you remember the Silver Crystal?!" Duck reminded her before covering his mouth, hoping Optimuatus, Deuce, or Captain Pollution heard that.
"So... The city brat has powers of her own that she's found out?" Vincent grinned evilly to his little cousin.
"Eloise, quick, fight back with the Power of the Silver Crystal!" Estelle told her.
"Um... I'll try..." Eloise shivered.
A bunch of robots tracked down the blonde girl and ran to her. Eloise squeezed her eyes shut as she tried to use the powers that she just discovered that she had. The robots were almost about to hurt her, but then a blast of white light came out of the little girl's hands.
Eloise opened one eye and saw that the robots were blasted to bits. "Hm," she then looked down at the palms of her hands with a small smile. "I must be getting the hang of this."
"Yep, just think of your loved ones." Estelle smiled.
"Hmm..." Eloise hummed in thought, then sighed a little. "I wish Mommy and Daddy could be together... And my mother were home more..."
A brighter light began to shine.
"Keep thinking of nice and happy thoughts." Estelle smiled.
"Uhh..." Eloise pouted.
"Think about your mother..." Estelle coached. "This about when she's in Paris, but then, she comes to the hotel and you see her..."
Eloise tried to think back. She saw herself coming down a hallway, then looked to her room door to see suitcases sticking out and she ran up to them and saw an adult blonde woman in the room, expecting someone. She saw herself running into her mother's open arms and they catch up on what had been happening in each other's lives away from each other. And where this made her smile.
Eloise could feel herself hugging her mother's warm and tender arms that she only gets to feel on special occasions. Robots ran over and tried to ambush her, but suddenly, a glossy pink bubble like shield came up over the blonde girl and repelled them off and they smashed into the walls.
"Oh, for the love of peat, will one of you just grab the royal scepter already?!" Captain Pollution exclaimed.
"I'll get it..." Vincent volunteered, going for the royal canary.
"Someone stop him!" Felicity called out.
"As one of your trusted protectors, I suggest you stay up here where it's safe and watch Danger Duck in action." Duck said as he placed the Royal Tweetums on a flight.
Optimatus snarled and zapped Duck with energy blasts from his hands. Duck yelled out and accidentally knocked the royal scepter out of the canary's hand.
"The royal scepter!" Tweetums cried out.
"Finder's Keepers~" Vincent smirked, picking it up.
"Put that down, Bro!" Estelle told him while trying to get out out of Vincents hands.
"Wouldn't you like to make me, Shorty?" Vincent stuck his tongue out at her as he held it high out of her reach.
"Oh, come on! Bro!" Estelle cried.
Akito flew right at him and grabbed the royal scepter.
"Hey!" Vincent glared at his younger brother.
Akito chuckled slightly. "Loser's Weepers."
"Give us the scepter or else the bird brain gets fried." Captain Pollution threatened while Optimatus held the canary in front of the evil clone of Captain Planet.
"You are a very, very bad man!" Tweetums glared at his enemies.
Deuce held his gun in front of the canary. "Hand over the royal scepter!" he then demanded.
"No, don't do it!" Tweetums urged, despite his life being on the line.
Akito was going to agree with Tweetums, but sighed and gave the scepter back to Vincent.
"Thank you kindly, little bro." Vincent mocked as he swiped the scepter out of his hand.
"Now, let Tweetums go." Akito glared at Optimatus.
Optimatus glared back, then let go of the bird. Akito carried Tweetums in his hands gently.
'At least they didn't take any hostages with them.' Estelle thought to herself.
Duck then took Tweetums and threw him to Ace and tried to take the royal scepter and teleport with it to trick the bad guys, but he couldn't successfully teleport. "Heeey!"
"Just a little insurance policy," Deuce smirked to him. "In case your friends try anything."
"I think Deuce's robots should look after you." Optimatus said, summoning more robots to dispose of Duck.
"Couldn't have said it better myself." Vincent said.
"Hurry, we must get to Wormhole Central at once!" Optimatus commanded.
A robot zapped the ceiling to ambush the Loonatics with avalanching rocks.
"See ya around." Vincent smirked evilly.
