Chapter 16: The Tentacle Massager of Doom

The Toonateers are running through the island, trying to catch up with the three Generals.

"This time, I'll get that present back. BlotToon Mickey will pay," said Mickey.

The Toonateers then reach a massage area and see the three Generals on massage tables as they get back massages from giant Blot tentacles.

"You…came…," said BlotToon Oswald.

"You got some nerve to relax since we want to hunt you down," said Oswald.

"Relax…a bit… Conversation requirement…"

"You are fun…Best toys ever…," said BlotToon Mickey.

"We're nobodies' toys!" Mickey shouted.

"Are you sure?"

The Toonateers felt silence before he continued, "Cartoons…Music…Movies…Games…Books…They're all toys…Items of entertainment… You must be…tired of being…bossed and pushed…around all the…time during work…Mickey… Toons are made…for people in…the Real World…to play with… Pity, you can't…make your own…choices and decisions…"

This put the three Toonateers and Gus in thought until Pete Pan came flying along with his Sprite to say, "Alright, Generals! Break time is over! I'm ready to have fun."

"Yes, sir," said BlotToons Mickey and Oswald while BlotToon Ortensia nodded.

"Pete Pan!?" said the three Toonateers and Gus.

"That's the Pete I don't like the most. He's so brutal to everyone. He even taught the BlotToons how to fight like savages," said Tintley, holding Turpley's hand for comfort.

"And worst of all, he nearly tried to harm us while we went through tests during our capture," said Turpley.

"I prefer rough play in a civilized manner. Anyway, if you're looking for Ariel's prison, she's the headpiece for the right BlotToon that will bring your doom," said Pete Pan before he flew away with his Sprite.

The BlotToon Tentacles disappeared when the three Generals got out of their tables.

"What a shame…It's a great place…," BlotToon Oswald said.

"BlotToon Ursula…Turn your tentacles…from massagers into weapons…Be free…," BlotToon Mickey continued. "By the way, Mickey…Your gift is tasty…."

"Hey!" Mickey shouted while the three Generals ran off.

But then the tentacles appeared again to block the Toonateers' path to follow the Generals. They look up at the Jug and see a tentacle from where the water should come. More tentacles begin to burst out of the Jug.

"Oh no. Quickly! We must return to the riverboat, or we'll drown!" Gus said, leading the way back.

"But those three!" Mickey said.

But Oswald grabs his hand while Ortensia takes the other to make him run with him.

"Oswald…Your present…," Mickey said.

"I want to know what it is, but I don't want to spoil the surprise," Oswald continued. "Every present you have given to me, Mickey, is important. I may hide it well, but I wish to snatch the present out of BlotToon Mickey's guts."

When the Toonateers reach the docks, Animatronic Donald sees them and says, "That was fast. But where's the Disney Princess?"

"Start the boat, quick!" Oswald called out.

Quickly, the Toonateers get on the riverboat as soon as the Jug busts to reveal giant BlotToon Ursula with a headpiece that has Ariel mirror prison on top. Her red Heart is shaped like the trident. What was left from the Jug shows a beautiful geyser like Old Faithful from a pretty crystal blue lake. The three Generals are seen on their speedboat.

"Grant us the Heart," said BlotToon Mickey.

"Waaah! She's huge!" Animatronic Donald yelled in fear.

"That's not all. Look at her head!" Gus said.

Ariel soon appears within her prison and shouts, "Mickey Mouse? Is that you down there? Help me!"

"Disney Princess Ariel, we're coming," said Ortensia.

When BlotToon Ursula began to stir up the waves around the island, it rocked the boat and made the passengers scurry.

"We're going to have to beat her like in the movie. Who's got a harpoon?" said Mickey.

"A harpoon? On a riverboat? We don't hunt whales," Animatronic Donald said.

"I got one on me," said Ghost Ian, showing his harpoon.

"Great, but why?" Oswald asks.

"I like to fish with it instead of fishing poles."

"Right?"

Soon, the tentacles grabbed Mickey and made a girly scream.

"Mickers!" Oswald yelled in worry.

"She shouldn't have done that," said Ortensia.

When brought up to her face, Mickey's Heart begins to pound like crazy. She roared at him, which made his ears blow backward.

"Eew, BlotToon breathe! The real Ursula is always aware of her dental hygiene and always pops a mint, too," said Mickey.

But she shows her teeth and lifts him to open her mouth while holding onto his leg. BlotToon Mickey grinned, looking eager for Mickey to get eaten. BlotToon Oswald looked surprised, while BlotToon Ortensia had his arm while holding her green fan up to her mouth. The two looked at BlotToon Mickey in shock and hurried away.

"Eat him! Eat him! Eat him!" BlotToon Mickey shouts in excitement.

"Sheesh, harsh," BlotToon Oswald commented while BlotToon Ortensia agreed.

"THAT'S IT! YOU ASKED FOR IT!" Oswald yelled in anger.

He grabs Ghost Ian's harpoon to aim at BlotToon Ursula's Heart. After puffing up his chest, he threw with all of his strength.

Once it pierced her Heart, Turpley covered Tintley's eyes while he said, "Your innocence would be broken if you saw that. But awesome aiming, Oswald."

The pain made BlotToon Ursula drop Mickey on top of her head as she held her chest and screamed in agony. She begins to sink into the ocean while a Guardian swarm emerges from her Heart. But the Guardians could pick up Mickey and Ariel's prison to gently put them on the riverboat's deck. But BlotToon Ursula's Trident Heart turns black and floats in the water.

"Mickey, thank goodness, you're safe," said Oswald, running over to hug Mickey.

"I'm good, Ozzie-san. But that was the coolest Heart pierce I've ever seen you do," Mickey responds after the hug.

"Oh, you."

Then the Guardians circle Ariel's prison, magically making it disappear and freeing her. She lies on the deck, asleep while in mermaid form.

"Ariel looks alright. But we're going to need a fishbowl. Aquarium size," said Ortensia while Mickey picked Ariel up.

"Got ya covered, Ortensia," Animatronic Donald pushed a big water-filled fish tank on wheels that's just Ariel's size.

"That'll work," said Mickey before tossing Ariel into it.

This wakes her up to say, "Hey! What happened?!"

"Ariel, you're awake."

"Mickey Mouse, it's nice to see you. But where are we, and who are these people? Is that Oswald the Lucky Rabbit and Ortensia?"

Oswald then said, "Nice to meet you, Mrs. Ariel. There's no need to worry. Once we bring you to Dark Beauty Castle, you'll be safe with the other Princesses."

"Look at the island," said Tintley.

Everyone was amazed by the beauty of the Jug, which was replaced with a lake geyser.

"It's even more beautiful than before," said Ortensia.

"I really got to take Minnie here," said Mickey.

"I guess we will have to call it Geyser Pump, right?" Turpley asks.

"It would appear so," said Gus as the riverboat leaves.

But as they left, the three Generals found BlotToon Ursula's Trident Black Heart. BlotToon Mickey fished it out with a fishing net. With it in his hand, BlotToon Ortensia takes out her suitcase so that he can put it in its space.

"They're too good...to be great pawns…and playthings for us…," said BlotToon Mickey.

"But they're all we…got to turn the…tables on the Petes…Right, my BlotToon Ortensia?" said BlotToon Oswald.

After closing the suitcase, BlotToon Ortensia coughed out, "…Yes…..Indeed….."
