Hey, guys, welcome to the next chapter of 'Amphibia 13!'. I hope that you guys enjoy the new chapter...anyway, I don't own anything except for my OCs, and the OC Blaze Simmons-Ackermann belongs entirely to my good author friend 9655
NOW LET'S GET ON WITH THE STORY!
{Amphibia 13!-Season 1, Episode 16: Alien Dating Season!}
"Why do we always hang out in the woods? You have a perfectly good and safe living room." An annoyed Anne says as we see her, Dereck, and Sprig strolling through the Wartwood Woods early in the morning as the Poisonous Pink Frog easily leaped over a large log while the Male Omnitrix Wielder climbed over it and reached out his hand as the Female Omnitrix Wielder raised her hand to grab it and Dereck pulled Anne up to the log with both of them still holding hands as they blushed a bit before getting down from the log as they followed after Sprig.
"Where's the fun in that? This place is full of nature." Sprig says with a smile as the Omnitrix Wielders turned their heads and spotted a ladybug flying over to land on a tree bark and it swiftly gets eaten by a large spider as Dereck grimaces while a pale-faced Anne hugged him for comfort as she shivered.
"Yeah, exactly..." Anne says nervously.
"Honestly? I'm with Anne on this one. Back on Earth, I would've loved going on nature walks and being one with nature and whatnot, but after staying in Amphibia for a while and nearly getting eaten or killed by the fauna and plantlife on an alarming daily basis, my love for nature had gone from a ten to a negative five." Dereck stated blankly as Sprig ignores what they said and hummed joyfully as he continues his stroll before hearing something in the bushes as he flinched and held out his arm.
"Stay back, guys! It could be a bloodsucking predator!" A glaring Sprig says while bending down to pick up a stick as Anne gave him a flat look.
"You are really not selling me on this place," Anne says before she and Dereck held up their Omnitrix Arms as the Trio walked over to the bush with Sprig tentatively reaching over to place his hand on the bush as he lowered it down and Anne and Dereck were bewildered to see a large gourd with a drawn smiley face and small branches placed on top while Sprig gasped in shock as he looked around urgently.
"Oh, no. It's an-,
"Ambush!" A Female Frog suddenly screamed while standing on top of a tree as the Trio glanced up just as she jumps down and catches Sprig in a tussle as she then hides in another bush, and a gasping Sprig started playing dead.
The Mysterious Frog is a 2'6-feet-tall, 10-year-old Anthropomorphic Female Frog with black pupils and pale blue scleras, a large mass of wild hair that was hidden by her hat and only allowed two visible tufts of orange hair to be visible, large elongated pale blue tongue, four short limbs with four-fingered hands, yellow skin with a paler shaded yellow-colored underbelly and dark orange spots on her cheeks, a significantly small and portly build, and her outfit consists of a turquoise hat with ragged patches, and frayed overalls with a short-sleeved light green shirt underneath. Her name is Ivy Hibiscus Matcha Sundew, Felicia's Daughter and Sprig's Acquaintance and Sparring Partner.
"I'm hit! Sprig down! Sprig down!" Sprig screamed overdramatically while closing his eyes and sticks out his tongue with Anne and Dereck awkwardly lowering their Omnitrix Arms with big sweatdrops on their heads as a giggling Ivy emerged from the bush. "Hey, Ivy. Nice ambush. Gourd in a wig? Classic."
"Ha, ha, can't take all the credit. You're really easy to trick." Ivy says with a chuckle as Sprig shrugged playfully while getting up from the floor.
"Well, guilty as charged." Sprig says with a cheeky grin as he and Ivy laughed before getting interrupted by Anne's forceful coughing to notice her and Dereck, with the former looking a bit embarrassed, as he elbowed her sides to make her stop. "Oh, Ivy, meet Anne and Dereck. Alien Shapeshifting Human Monsters from another world. Anne and Dereck? Meet Ivy. Childhood Acquaintance and occasional Sparring Partner." Sprig says before glaring in determination as he throws a punch at Ivy, who had calmly placed her arms behind her back and jumped up to not only avoid his punch but gave him a swift kick on the face, causing him to grunt as Sprig recovers and laughs.
"Oh, so that's why you are so good at fighting. Makes sense." Dereck says with a surprised hum and a nod as he just now realized how odd it is that Sprig is able to keep up with him and Anne while other Frogs can't as the Male Omnitrix Wielder then pauses a bit. "Wait a minute, I thought you said that you didn't have any friends at all?"
"What?" A bewildered Sprig asked while turning to Dereck, who placed his hands on his hips as he nodded with a small raised eyebrow.
"Yeah, don't you remember? When we first went to Fang's Pond, you said that the Kids around here didn't get you and that's why you didn't have any friends," Dereck says as a clueless Sprig blinks at him slowly while tilting his head.
"Really? I said that?"
"Yeah, you did. Roll the clip." Dereck says while turning to me with a glare.
[Flashback: Amphibia 13!- Season 1, Episode 2: Best Alien Fronds]
"Ah, this is great. Three pals beatin' the odds to have some fun and flying through the dangerous terrain of Amphibia." Ghostfreak says gleefully as she and the others were flying through the woods with Dereck sitting on her back and Sprig resting on her arms as Ghostfreak was still using her alien ghostly powers to keep themselves invisible from outside view. "Here," Ghostfreak says while pulling her phone from out of nowhere with the help of her telekinesis as her phone glowed with a faint green aura. "Smile," Ghostfreak said while turning herself and the boys briefly visible to take a quick photo of a smirking Ghostfreak, a smiling Dereck, and a confused Sprig as Anne inspects the photo through a narrow eye. "Whoa. Hey, that turned out great!"
"Awesome," Dereck says with a little smile on his face as he was so used to Anne taking quick group photos of him and the others that he was able to pose and smile in record time.
"I don't know what's crazier, that you two can transform into alien monsters, Anne just stole my soul in a tiny box, or that we look so incredible!" Sprig exclaimed with a big smile on his face as he took a quick look at the photo and nodded in satisfaction as he beamed up at the Omnitrix Wielders. "I gotta say, this friend business is amazing!"
"Didn't you have friends before we showed up?" Ghostfreak asked with a raised eyebrow...even though she doesn't have eyebrows, but whatever.
"Uh...well, you see, the kids around here..." Sprig trails off as he had a small flashback of the time that he tried to play a 'playful' prank and scare a couple of kids his age, but it ended up with them getting traumatized and running away as Hop Pop gave him a stern talking to about scaring the neighborhood kids. "...don't really get me." Sprig says with a sad, lonely look on his face as Dereck and Ghostfreak shared sympathetic looks before the young teen boy reaches down to pat Sprig on the head as he gave him a reassuring look.
[Flashback Over]
"Hmmm...nope, don't remember that event at all." Sprig says with an oblivious smile as Dereck facepalmed with a groan.
"Hey, Ivy," Anne says while waving at Ivy, who waved back as the Girls ignored the Boys' odd conversation.
"Hey, I've seen you and your Friend around," Ivy says while walking over to hold out her hand as Anne gave her a brief handshake. "Nice to officially meet you guys. Do you and your Friend like being randomly attacked?"
"Not at all," Anne says with a cheerful tone as Ivy shrugged playfully and walks away to face Sprig.
"Well, too bad. See you later, Sprig." Ivy says before leaning over to Sprig's face so that he can see her unnerving expression. "But you won't see me~," Ivy says with a playfully sinister tone as she then jumps back on a log and leaps away out of Sprig's sight as he laughs while Anne and Dereck slowly turned to glance at each other...and grin deviously as they turned back to their Frog Friend.
"Well, well, well. She's kinda cute, huh?" Anne asked Sprig while wiggling her eyebrows as Dereck went over to elbow Sprig's sides.
"I bet you want to try and kiss her, eh? Come on, you can always tell me, man to man and all that." Dereck says with a sly raised eyebrow as Sprig gave them both an annoyed look.
"I don't know what you're talking about." Sprig says with a glare and a huff as he walks on ahead with Anne and Dereck placing their arms behind their back as they followed after him, happy to FINALLY be able to tease someone else for once.
"Well, well, well, well, well, well, well."
"So, Sprig, I have to ask when you and Ivy get married, can Anne and I be your Children's Godparents?"
"Stop being weird, guys!"
~[Amphibia 13!- Season 1: Theme Song]~
A bruised, bleeding, and defeated, Anne Boonchuy and Dereck Wyatt crouched down on the floor of the destroyed park as the injured teenagers panted heavily and glared up at the large robotic space alien-like drone looming over them as they looked down at their Omnitrixes and cursed in unison as they realized that they were time out and unable to transform. Glancing over at the rest of their friends for support, Anne and Dereck were discouraged/dismayed to see an unconscious Sasha Waybright lying on the floor with pieces of brown rocks and fire littering around her as her mineral-armored cousin Johnathon Waybright was desperately trying to wake her up but failed as a trembling and scared Marcy Wu laid on the floor while holding onto the Calamity Box in her arms as her older brother Asashi Wu tried to help her up to the floor so that they can run away with their friends, but Marcy refused to budge as she clutched onto the Musical Box tightly.
Turning back to the huge robot, Anne, Dereck, and the rest of the teens were horrified/shocked to see it lifting its giant hand to aim it towards them as it begins charging up to deliver a mega-sized laser blast that will fry the teens to dust. Sharing a quick look at each other, the teenage friends nodded to each other grimly as they accepted their imminent fates, and Anne grabbed onto Dereck's hand as he gave it a comforting squeeze, and the Omnitrix Wielders both shared one final hug as Johnathon grabbed onto his unconscious cousin and brought her into a tearful hug as Asashi gave one to his sister as well and Marcy hugged him back tightly as she dropped her Calamity Box just as the large drone shot a huge laser at them as the musical box crashed landed onto the ground and it opened up as the group was treated to a bright, colorful flash of light that blinded them momentarily and transported them to the world of Amphibia, alongside the huge drone and its master residing up above in space as he, his ship, and his army were all teleported onto another world.
Groaning in pain, Anne and Dereck woke up as they lifted their heads and blinked a couple of times...before their eyes widened in shock as they realized that they were lying face-first on a puddle and quickly stood up as the teens looked around, and the duo gasped in wonder/awe/fear as Anne and Dereck had quickly deduced that they weren't back on their world anymore since they were residing on a large forest/swamp with hundreds of humanoid talking frogs leaping in front of them. Trembling in fear, Anne and Dereck held hands as they turn around to run away and ventured deep into the woods as they struggled to make sense of what was going on, where their friends are, and why the weird musical box that Anne stole earlier transported them into this weird world, but skids to a stop as they realized that the huge drone from earlier was warped into Amphibia with them as it loomed over them menacingly.
Once its sensors locked onto their Omnitrixes, the large drone hummed loudly as it raises its hand high into the air and aims it at the kids as it started charging his laser cannon, and the still injured Omnitrix Wielders shivered in fear at the sight of it as they were planning to turn around and leave, but once they hear the citizens of Wartwood Swamp running in fright from the giant monster threatening to destroy their home, Anne and Dereck put on fierce, determined looks on their faces as they turned to each other and nodded as they held out their hands and activated their Omnitrixes just as the giant robot opened fire on them as the duo slammed their hands onto their watches and dual flashes of green light covered the area as we pull back to see all of Amphibia, which was a large island that resembled a humongous lilypad as the sounds of fighting, explosions, and frog croaking could be heard in the background.
Now we find ourselves
Into the wild unknown
A week later, we cue to Wartwood Swamp as we see various bug-like creatures and several Frogs enjoying their peaceful day in their fair town as we zoom over to the Plantar House, where we see Anne and Dereck stepping out of the house after ducking under the Plantar's Family House small door and closing the door behind them as the sixteen-year-olds stood up straight and placed their hands on their hips heroically with confident, smirks on their faces as Anne and Dereck then glance down at their Omnitrixes and turned to each other with a couple of excited smirks as they quickly turned on their watches and began scrolling down their alien playlist to see which alien they would like to turn into as they subconsciously lean closer to each other.
With the frogs and toads
And we're far from home
While our teenage heroes were busy messing around with their Omnitrixes, a pair of rather large dragonflies flew past their heads as they flew up towards the roof of the house and zoomed by a window, where an eager and excited Sprig Plantar emerged from it to stare at the flying dragonflies with his telescope in awe/wonder, only to then yelp in surprise as Sprig trips on the windowsill and screams in fear as he begins falling down to his death and zooms by another window, which was actually the window that leads into Hop Pop Plantar's room as the old frog was startled by his grandson's scream and turned away from his research from the Calamity Box and the pair of Omnitrixes that the duo wore as he discretely hid them under his table.
But there's so much here to discover
One leap after another
A screaming Sprig continued falling down for his life as the small pink-skinned frog crashed landed onto a wooden bucket filled with water and, after recovering from the rough landing, a stunned Sprig sits up from the bucket as he looks around, and sighs in relief with a goofy smile on his face, not fazed by his near-death in the slightest before yelping in surprise as he was punched into the air by his little baby sister Polly Plantar and the small tadpole hovered in the air with a vicious look on her face as she then fell down on her bucket and pops out with a cheerful look on her face as she flashed the readers a cute, innocent smile.
Back with the teens, we see them still trying to find the right alien to use for the day, only to come up short as Anne and Dereck couldn't decide which to use yet as they groaned in annoyance and turned over to complain to each other...before realizing how close their faces were as they blushed in embarrassment and shyly pulled away as Dereck looked away and whistled nervously as a blushing Anne awkwardly pulled off the leaves from her hair. Seeing that his friend needed his help, Dereck reached over to gently remove the leaves and twigs from her hair as Anne smiled at him gratefully and returned the favor by removing the leaves and bugs from his outfit as the kids shared a laugh. After calming down, the kids slowly turned to stare into each other eyes as they blushed lightly but smiled as they started leaning closer to each other to share a kiss...only to be interrupted by Sprig as he crash-landed face-first into Anne's hair and was then launched over to Dereck as they crashed landed onto the floor.
Blinking in surprise at what just happened, Anne looks down and saw a groaning Dereck and Sprig lying on the floor below as the human boy rubbed his head, and both he and Anne glances down to glare at their froggy friend for a couple of obvious reasons as Sprig gave his friends a sheepish, awkward shrug as the Omnitrix Wielders continued glaring him for a couple of seconds before the trio shared a laugh as Anne help Dereck up to his feet and Sprig leaped up to stand onto their shoulders as he eagerly pointed ahead. Knowing that their friend clearly wants to go on another adventure, Anne gave her friend an apologetic shrug as Dereck simply closed his eyes and waved it off dismissively as she smiles in relief just as Sprig jumps off to run off into adventure as the teens followed after him while activating their Omnitrixes as two huge flashes of green light occurred and covered the area around them.
Hop into the adventure
Gotta ribbit, ribbit
Jump on in it
A laughing Anne, Dereck, and Sprig could be seen bouncing across a large, mushroom-infested field as the Omnitrix Wielders were currently in their alien forms Grey Matter and Crashhopper as each of them were jumping across multiple huge mushrooms, and, with each step they took, caused the mushrooms to light up with blue luminescent light. A smiling Sprig leaped across the mushroom field like the frog that he is as Grey Matter followed after him while using her intelligence and agility to find the correct and easier way to leap across the giant mushrooms due to her small size as a smirking Crashhopper jumped near them and was easily making bigger leaps high into the air thanks to his strange alien biology as the group whopped in shared excitement/happiness.
Welcome to Amphibia
Life doesn't get much crazier
A panicking Sprig runs across the grassy fields of a nearby forest as an equally panicking Four Arms followed after him while carrying a large dinosaur-shaped egg in her four huge hands as a giant chicken/demon-like creature was chasing after them, clearly angry at them for stealing the egg that he stole from another creature earlier to use for lunch as the giant monster caught up to the duo and was about to breathe fire on them, only to be stopped by a glaring Jetray as he flew in and shot multiple neuroshock blasts at him, causing him to be sent flying a few feet away as Jetray shot a thumbs up at the duo below and his friends did the same as they proceed to continue running away while Jetray stayed behind to distract the huge chicken/demon-like monster.
The Plantar Family, including Anne and Dereck, were having a peaceful day of fishing on a swamp while sitting on a giant lily pad as they sighed contently...before yelping in surprise as the lilypad suddenly started rising high into the air, and the cautious group of humans and frogs looks down as they realized that they were not sitting on top of a lilypad, but instead were using a swamp creature's head as a seat and the huge monster clearly wasn't happy about that as he roared at them loudly. Anne, Dereck, Sprig, Hop Pop, and Polly screamed in fear as the swamp monster tried to shake them off by swimming across the lake at high speeds, but the group won't let go as the Omnitrix Wielders shared a look and nodded as they quickly activated their watches and Anne transformed into Ripjaws while Dereck transformed into Articguanna as both heroes began slashing/blasting the large monster to submission.
When you're a somewhat normal boy and girl
Living in another alien world
Sprig, Hop Pop, and a bored Polly studied the walls of the ancient temple that they were randomly adventuring in as, unknown to them, a giant boulder was heading straight towards them, and they were about to be flattened like pancakes, only for Cannonbolt and Spidermonkey to appear on the scene as Anne grabbed onto Sprig and Polly and rolled them up inside her ball form as she zooms off while Spidermonkey swung in on his webbing as he grabs on to a startled Hop Pop and swung him away to safety as the huge boulder rolled right past them.
The sounds of growling and the stench of death littered the area as a bunch of frog-like zombies appeared and corned our young heroes as Heatblast, Swampfire, and Sprig all stood back-to-back as the alien heroes glared at their adversaries determinedly while Sprig was clearly scared for his life as the menacing zombies loomed over to attack and later eat their brains.
What you gonna do?
You gotta ribbit, ribbit
Jump on in it
An injured, tired, and battered Anne, Dereck, Sprig, Hop Pop, and Polly all shared a victorious high-five as they finished defeating a horde of large evil lizard/dinosaur-like creatures as they smiled and cheered at their successful adventure, only for their excitement to die down as another one of those evil creatures popped out of the bushes and screeches at them as he waddled awkwardly over to attack them. The frog family took a couple of steps back nervously, but Anne and Dereck weren't afraid of this however as they grinned at the evil monster cockily and reaches down to activate their Omnitrixes...only for them to receive two powered-down beeps as the teens slowly looked down and realize that their Omnitrixes powered down to recharge. Blinking at this, the gang all shared an emotionless look before screaming in absolute fear as the group turned around to run away with the lizard/dinosaur-like monster chasing after them as Anne, Dereck, and Plantar Family desperately pleaded at the Omnitrixes to recharge faster.
Welcome to Amphibia
Life doesn't get much crazier
So ribbit, ribbit live it in
Amphibia
An old ripped printed image appears to be stuck in the branch of a lone tree as heavy rain rang out with the wind blowing on the photo harshly as loud lightning rang out, and we peered into the photo to see Anne, Dereck, Sasha, Johnathon, Marcy, and Asashi all sharing a group hug with their smiling faces shining brightly as another flash of lightning occurred, and we see that the image was distorted a bit as it shows a glaring Anne and Dereck reaching out to grab onto their Omnitrixes as they were standing in front of an angry mutated Sasha with her equally angry cousin standing beside as he had his arms morphed into large dual swords. The group growled at each other furiously as a flash of lightning rang out, and we see Marcy and Asashi cooly standing in the background with their backs turned to them as they wore different clothing and held the Calamity Box in their hands as another flash of lightning occurred, and two pair of red alien-like/newt-like eyes could be seen placed at the top of the photo as they were glaring down at the group of kids angrily.
A roaring Wildmutt and a smirking Crystalline could be seen standing in front of a pond located at Wartwood Swamp as they posed heroically before their Omnitrixes symbols started flashing red as they both transformed into their human forms with dual flashes of red light. Once it dies down, we see a yelping Anne waving around wildly as she tripped on a rock and began falling down as she screamed before being caught by Dereck as the young teenage boy smiled down at her cheekily and helped her up to her feet as he held her in his arms and Anne blushed a bit by this as she giggles and Dereck smirked as the kids begin leaning in to share their first kiss, only to deadpanned as the Plantar Family showed up and a happy and oblivious Sprig leaped onto his human friends. Anne and Dereck gave their froggy friend a subtle annoyed look before shrugging as the rest of their Wartwood friends appeared and stood beside them as they turn over to flash at the readers a friendly smile with Anne and Dereck posing heroically as they raised their hands high into the air, and the camera zoomed in onto their glowing Omnitrix Symbols as the title card of the story appeared on the screen.
~[Amphibia 13!- Season 1: Theme Song Over]~
"We're home!" Anne screamed after she, Dereck, and Sprig were able to come back to the Plantar Residence as an annoyed Hop Pop can be seen walking down from upstairs.
"What have you three been doin'? I've been lookin' for you all morning."
"Oh, yeah, we decided to take a morning stroll through the woods today...oh, and we ran into a cute Frog Girl that Sprig loooooooooooooooves." Dereck teases while ruffling Sprig's head as he slapped his hand with an irritated huff as Hop Pop gasps in shock and surprise.
"No kiddin'?"
"Yeah, you should've been there. Sprig was so smitten. It was so adorable." Anne cooed while placing her hands on her blushing cheeks as a blushing Sprig turned to glare at his Friends.
"Guys, it's not like that. Ivy Sundew and I are just friends."
"Wait a minute, Ivy Sundew?! Nobody move, I'm gettin' the courtship kit!" An excited Hop Pop screamed while almost squealing with happiness like a little girl as he turned around to run upstairs.
"Ehhhhhhhhhhhhh, this is so exciting! I'm gonna go get my dating magazines! BRB!" Anne screamed while running off towards her and Dereck's Shared Basement Room with speeds almost resembling that of XLR8 and Fasttrack as an amused Dereck crossed their arms and leaned against the wall as Sprig stares at Polly for a little while quizzically, wondering why she wasn't making a big deal about this like the others as his Little Baby Sister shrugs lazily.
"I don't actually care," Polly says with a bored tone, answering his unspoken question as a grinning Hop Pop then ran back downstairs while holding a small chest as he walked over to place it down on the Living Room Table and went over sit down on the couch as the Old Frog then opened up the small chest to reveal that it was containing a ceremonial hat, neck ruff, and a bouquet of tall mushrooms.
"Here we go. The Firefly Formal is tonight. It's the perfect opportunity to begin the ritual."
"Ritual?" Dereck and Anne, with the former emerging up the Basement Door and holding onto her magazines, asked confusedly while tilting their heads curiously as Hop Pop nodded with a big smile on his face.
"Uh-huh. Only frogs who have performed the ceremonial dance in the ceremonial garb are allowed to be wed." Hop Pop says while presenting an illustration of Two Frogs in ceremonial garb with the words 'True Love' written on it.
"Huh. Kitschy. I like it." Anne commented with a small smile while she and Dereck went over to sit beside Hop Pop.
"Hmmm, a bit old-fashioned, but I can dig it," Dereck says with a shrug as a worried Sprig ran over to stop this crazy mess.
"Guys! We're just friends!" An annoyed Sprig screamed while waving his hands around in exasperation as he huffed. "Besides, I'm already engaged to Maddie, right? She gave me this nifty ring." Sprig says while holding up his left arm as it showed his wedding ring, which is an eerie skull with glowing eye sockets.
"That's still going on?" An incredulous Anne asked as she didn't think that the whole marriage thing was serious.
"Yep, and she told me that if I removed this ring, my soul will be removed from my body forever, so I haven't taken off this ring in weeks." Sprig says with a nervous laugh and a big sweatdrop on his head as Hop Pop reached over to grab his Grandson by his shoulders and shook him around frantically.
"Forget her! The Sundews have secret proprietary crops! DO YOU HAVE ANY IDEA WHAT THAT MEANS?!"
"Uh..." Sprig says while struggling to answer as money signs appeared in Hop Pop's eyes.
"IF OUR FAMILIES MERGE, WE'LL BE RICH!" An overly greedy Hop Pop screamed with a maniacal laugh as an uninterested and bored Polly gave her Grandfather a blank look.
"Wow, sooo romantic," Polly says dryly as Anne, who had whirled around and laid down on the couch with her head on Dereck's lap, continued reading her magazine and squealed happily.
"Uhh, I love these magazines. Look, Sprig. It says here two-thirds of all soul mates start out as 'Just friends'," Anne says while holding up her magazine as Sprig blinks in surprise.
"Wait, you mean like you and Dereck?" Sprig asked, causing Anne and Dereck to blush heavily as they laughed awkwardly.
"Errr...just read the darn magazine." An embarrassed Anne says while slamming her magazine into Sprig's face as he grabbed it and began reading it properly as, the more the Frog Boy did so, the more unsure he looks.
"Hmmm, hey, maybe you guys are right. This magazine actually looks pretty legit. And you trust these things?"
"Definitely," Anne says with a confident nod while Dereck rolled his eyes and scoffed.
"I don't. Hell, not even Blaze and Asashi like those magazines due to how inaccurate they are."
"Inaccurate? Ah, sweet, naive, adorable Dereck. Magazines never lie. It's where I learned how to create makeshift tampons by using leaves." Anne says with a smug tone as Dereck turned to her curiously.
"And how does that feel?"
"Highly uncomfortable and painful every single day," Anne says with a tight smile, and her left eye twitched madly as she shook her ass around in discomfort.
"Man, I seriously can't believe this, could Ivy be my eternal love, my soul mate?" Sprig asked while placing his hand on his head panickedly as he sweated nervously.
"Well, we're about to find out 'cause I already asked her family." Hop Pop says with a smile while standing near a window as a large mosquito messenger arrives through an open window and hands him a letter as the Old Frog reads it. "Mm-hmm, mm-hmm, mm-hmm. They agreed to a date!" An excited and gleeful Hop Pop yelled while throwing up the letter as he then notices that the mosquito was still present. "What do you want?" Hop Pop asked confusedly as the mosquito buzzes its wings. "Oh, your tip. All right, here you go but don't take too much, though. I have chores to do later." Hop Pop says while pulling back his sleeve to allow the Mosquito to drink his blood as Sprig hums awkwardly while rubbing his chin a bit.
"Well, missing out on eternal love does sound bad. I guess one date couldn't hurt."
"Eyyyyyyyyyyy!/That's my boy!" Anne and Hop Pop shouted in unison with big smiles on their faces as Dereck snorted amusedly and crossed his arms.
"Well, this is doomed to fail."
"What? What do you mean by that?" Anne asked incredulously as Dereck chuckled and shakes his head.
"Sorry, Anne, but we both know that this plan won't work out. You suck at these kinds of things."
"Why are you talking about, crazy boy?" Anne asked while sitting up from Dereck's lap as she turned to glare at him. "I'm not only great at planning romantic stuff, but I'm great at seeing romantic potential. Like, for example, I know for a fact that Blaze has a crush on Marcy." Anne says with an arrogant smirk as she raised her hand to begin counting her fingers. "Like, I noticed that for the past few months they have been hanging out with each other alone a lot, they both cuddled with each other when they thought that we were sleeping, and there was that one time..."
[Flashback: A few months ago]
"Yo, Blaze, ya coming?" Anne asked while walking past Blaze as both teenagers can be seen placed in their school's library with the Thai-American Teenager standing near the exits with Dereck and their friends outside as the Biracial American Boy was sitting on a desk, studying.
"Nah, I'm good." Blaze says boredly as Anne pouted...before grinning slyly as she plays a guaranteed solution to have her friend come with them to the mall as the Thai American decided to pull the 'Marcy Card' on him.
"All righty, then. Shame really, since Marcy's gonna be there."
"...Let's go!" An excited Blaze yelled as, upon hearing Marcy's name, he immediately put away his stuff and stood up from his chair as Blaze runs off with Anne chuckling amusedly, knowing that this trick always works on Blaze whenever they want him to come with them as she followed after him.
[Flashback Over]
"Okay, yeah, Blaze loves Marcy, but anyone can see that. That doesn't make you a romantic expert. Remember when you pitched to me a Date Idea when Sasha and I were dating? It ended in a disaster." Dereck says with a flat look as Anne looked away quietly.
"Yes, that idea was an accident. That was no way me trying to intentionally break you guys up because I was seriously angry at Sasha for stealing you away from me right after I told her that I had a crush on you and the next day, I found out you two were dating and I felt like my soul was crushed into a billion pieces."
"What?"
"I meant, okay, Mr. Doom and Gloom, if you're so sure that our plan will fail, how about we make a bet?" Anne says, changing the subject as she shifted her eyes around nervously.
"Hmm, okay what are the terms?" Dereck asked curiously as Anne leans over to grin at him slyly.
"Whoever's wrong has to sleep in just their underwear for a week."
"Deal," Dereck says with a smirk as he and Anne shared a handshake as we then fast forward in time to nighttime, and we cue at the town's square as Wartwood seems to be celebrating the Firefly Formal and a bunch of Frogs were dancing around with each other as we zoom over to the side of a building and we see Anne and Hop Pop fussing over Sprig as Dereck stood beside them with Polly in his arms.
"Stop strugglin'/Just a little more/All righty, cool/My boy, you look incredible," Hop Pop and Anne said in unison while finishing dressing up Sprig in his Formal Attire, which consists of him wearing a fancy yellow beret-beanie-esque hat with blue feathers arranged next to each other in a pattern, a big white tudor collar wrapped around his neck, a very short green shirt with big-round shaped sleeves embroidered with seed-like shapes, puffy pants with thick vertical stripes with the pattern ranging from the colors of green to yellow, and his face was covered with white makeup with a touch blush on his cheeks.
"Uh... I don't know about this." Sprig says unsurely, clearly uncomfortable by the outfit due to it being much too big for him and gives him limited movement. "Ivy's gonna think I look stupid. I think I look stupid."
"He does look pretty stupid," Dereck says with a nod as an annoyed Anne elbows him and gives Sprig a reassuring smile.
"Great, you'll have something in common. It's fine." Anne says while placing her hands on Sprig's back and began pushing her forward as her head constantly bangs against lanterns as she walks. "Ow. Ow. Ow."
"Anne, for the love of God, just duck." A deadpanned yet amused Dereck says while he and the others followed after the Duo as the Male Omnitrix Wielder made sure to duck underneath the lanterns.
"My little girl's a woman." An Adult Female Frog says while walking into the Firefly Formal with Ivy, who was also wearing an embarrassing outfit like Sprig as she grumbled angrily.
The Woman is a 3'6-feet-tall, 35-year-old Anthropomorphic Female Frog with black pupils and pale green scleras, long braided red hair that reaches down to her feet, pale orange lipstick, large elongated pale green tongue, four short limbs with four-fingered hands, yellow skin with a paler shaded yellow-colored underbelly, a slender hourglass build, and her outfit consists of a crown of green flowers sitting atop her head, and a long puffy-sleeved dark green dress. Her name is Felicia Sundew, Ivy's Mother and the owner of her own tea shop in Wartwood Swamp.
"Mom!" An embarrassed and blushing Ivy yelled while wearing a large poofy white wig, white makeup with a touch of a blush on her cheeks, pale red lipstick, and a long puff-sleeved orange dress with a purple slash that has a large yellow bow.
"All right, boy, go get that lucrative business relationship." Hop Pop says with a sleazy grin on his face while holding a bouquet of tall mushrooms in his hands as Anne coughed at him loudly in the background. "I mean, romantic relationship. He, he, saved it." Hop Pop says while patting himself on the back as he then handed the bouquet over to Sprig, who began awkwardly waddling over to Ivy while making squeaky noises due to his suit as Dereck hummed a bit and turned to Anne.
"Hey, Anne, have you ever noticed that Sprig and Ivy's outfits look almost exactly like Shrek and Fiona's outfits in Shrek the Third?"
"I did, but we agree that there is no, 'Shrek the Third'," Anne says while turning to him with an ominous smile that sends shivers down Dereck's spine just as Sprig made his way over to Ivy as he tried to wave at her as best as he can.
"Hey."
"Hi."
"Uh... these are for you." An anxious Sprig says while handing Ivy the bouquet of tall mushrooms as she grabbed it awkwardly.
"Oh. Thanks."
"...So...you're looking like a... Girl Frog."
"Oh, okay...I like your, uh, collar."
"Cool..." Sprig says quietly as a tense silence rang out between him and Ivy.
"So, it looks like your plan is working, huh?" A grinning Dereck says to Anne, who squealed excitedly as she beamed.
"I know, right?!" Anne shouted, oblivious to Dereck's sarcasm as he and Polly facepalmed.
"Ah, I'm so happy we agreed on this merger, Hopadiah," Felicia says with a warm smile while walking over to Hop Pop as he had a big greedy smile on his face. "That Sprig of yours looks like a hard worker."
"Now, as we agreed, you'll get Sprig to work at your restaurant, and I'll get the seeds to those Sundew vegetables." Hop Pop says with dollar signs in his eyes as Felicia nodded, and they shared a handshake.
"Ah, this is so exciting, Dereck. I wonder what their ship name will be. Ivig? Sprigivy?" Anne asked curiously as Dereck placed his hand on his chin thoughtfully.
"How about, 'Sprivy?',"
"Perfect," Anne says as she and Dereck shared a high-five.
"WHAT ARE YOU TWO EVEN SAYING?!" Poly screamed in confusion and exasperation as Hop Pop rushed over to shush them.
"Shh, let's watch our little love doves fly...love doves are birds that mate for life."
"Yeah, we figured, Old Man," Dereck says as he and Anne rolled their eyes a bit.
"Excuse me, everybody, but I hear we have a couple of love doves here tonight." A Newt named 'Albus Duckweed' says while standing on the stage as everyone turned to him. "Ivy Sundew and Sprig Plantar! Whoo! A big hand for them! Come on, let me hear it!" Albus cheered while pointing at Sprig and Ivy just as the spotlight was shined down at them as everyone turned to cheer and clap their hands at the young 'couple' as both Kids looked incredibly uncomfortable by the attention that they were drawing.
"Hopadiah Plantar says, 'Sprig, don't mess this up for us', and Felicia Sundew would like Ivy to, 'Have a great courtship. Wink,'. It says 'Wink' here." Albus explained to the confused crowd while pointing down the cards containing what Hop Pop and Felica want to say to their Grandson and Daughter. "Anyway, it also says, 'Love, Mom, and p.s., don't get any funny ideas missy. You are too young for that'...okay, ignoring that weird comment, hit it, boys!" Albus yelled with his Frog Band beginning to play their music as Sprig and Ivy chuckled nervously and briefly struggled to reach over to grab each other's hands as they began awkwardly dancing around.
"You know, Sprig, I had no idea you felt this way about me," Ivy says with a tense smile as Sprig anxiously nodded.
"Oh, sure. Didn't you know two-thirds of all mates start with souls? Ah! I mean, two-thirds of all souls start with...okay, I can't do this anymore." Sprig says while shaking his head with a glare as he lets go of Ivy's hand, and they stopped dancing as the Poisonous Pink Frog gave his Childhood Best Friend an apologetic look. "I'm really sorry, Ivy. I-I don't want to date you. Everyone just convinced me this was a good idea."
"Oh, thank goodness!" An extremely happy Ivy screamed in relief while throwing up her arms as she wiped away the sweat from her forehead. "I only went along because I didn't want to hurt you...also 'cause my mom forced me to come."
"Ha, parents, am I right?" An amused Sprig asked as he and Ivy laughed. "What do you say we ditch this thing and go watch some fireflies? They're in season." Sprig says while wiggling his eyebrows playfully as Ivy giggles and nods.
"Ha, ha, after you, friend."
"Why, thank you, friend." Sprig says while he and Ivy bowed to each other before snorting and laughing as they then held hands and turned around to run away with Anne and the others being able to spot this as they were spying on the 'Young Couple' the whole time.
"Ooh-la-la. The little love doves are sneaking off into the woods. You know what that means~," Anne says to the others with a sly grin...before her face paled in horror and shock as she gripped her head in realization. "Oh, no! You know what that means! I wanted to be a Godmother, but not so soon!"
"Anne, relax, they are ten. At most, they will hold hands or kiss." Dereck stated dryly as Anne sighs in relief and wiped off the sweat from her forehead in relief as Felicia and Hop Pop, however, had panicking and nervous looks on their faces.
"Oh, no! We are in big trouble, kids!" A worried Felicia yelled as Anne, Dereck, and a still-bored Polly turned to her. "If the Kids are leaving, then it means they're abandoning the ritual! If those two don't finish that dance-,"
"Then this courtship will be ruined! Along with my financial security!" A concerned Hop Pop screamed while gripping his head as Anne went wide-eyed at what they said nervously.
"Wait, what?! We cannot let them waste this chance! They say nine out of ten people stay up at night regretting missed romantic opportunities! Nine out of ten!" Anne yelled as a determined Hop Pop slammed his fists together with a glare on his face.
"Come on, gang. Let's get this merger back on track."
"Uh, counterpoint, why don't we just leave them alone?" A blank-faced Polly asked as everyone, sans Dereck, rolled their eyes at what she said and scoffed incredulously.
"Ridiculous."
"Not a chance."
"I'm way too invested right now. Besides, I can't lose my bet against Dereck." Felicia, Hop Pop, and Anne said in unison with Dereck giving Polly a look that reads, 'If you want this mess to end soon, just go along with it for now' as the Frog Baby huffed with an annoyed glare on her face.
"Wow." An amazed Sprig says as we fast forward in time and, after going into two different bushes to strip off their ridiculous clothes and put on their normal attire, we see Sprig and Ivy arriving at a small meadow containing a bunch of fireflies flying around a lake. "Man, this is way better than that stuffy old dance. Right, Ivy?"
"..."
"Ivy?" A confused Sprig asked while turning his head as it was only now that he realized that his friend was missing and grew worried as Sprig was about to and search for her, but then-
"Ambush!" Ivy suddenly screamed while appearing behind Sprig with a stick in her hand as she was able to tackle him into the ground. "Defeated!"
"Oh, I'm not done yet!" A grinning Sprig yelled while reaching over to grab a stick and was able to push her off of him as he then leaped back into his feet and held out his stick as a grinning Ivy was able to do the same, and they began swinging their sticks around, trying to strike at each other, but Sprig was able to block all of Ivy's attacks and bounced around while using his Superhuman Speed to appear behind Ivy and sticks out his tongue to strike her back as she yelped in pain.
"Ow! Sprig! We said no serious attacks!" A glaring Ivy screamed as Sprig winced and gave her an apologetic look.
"Sorry, Ivy, I'm just so used to fighting in real battles that I forget to hold back."
"Heh, I noticed, and I have to say, I think it's cool that you help your friends fight off Beasts and those weird Alien Things." Ivy complimented as Sprig blushed sheepishly.
"He, he, thanks, it's a bit scary sometimes, but I know that Anne and Dereck always have my back, and if you want, you can join in on our battles every once in a while."
"Thanks, I like that," Ivy says with a grateful smile before putting on a determined grin as she struck a battle pose. "Now, enough talking! Let's continue fighting!"
"Ha, ha, ha, yes! You can't beat me this time, Ivy!"
"Oh, yeah? I promise that once I'm done with you, this will be your grave!"
"That's, uh...that's pretty dark!" Sprig says with an awkward smile before he and Ivy rushed over to begin trading stick swings.
"Hmm." A suspicious Hop Pop says while bending down to see Sprig and Ivy's discarded formal clothing lying on the ground as we see him and the others trying to search for the Kids in the woods. "Where are those dang kids?"
"Hey, darlings, don't you have a couple of those Monster Things that can track down the Kids?" Felicia asked Anne and Dereck curiously as they nodded and raised their Omnitrix Arms as the Lovebirds were planning to transform into Wildmutt and Slapback, respectively, but then flinched in surprise as Two Lovedoves soared past them and landed down to land on a tree branch as they nuzzled each other's beaks.
"Huh?"
"Oh, neat."
"They're beautiful."
"Just look at them." Anne, Dereck, Felicia, and Polly said in unison with amazed and awed looks on their faces as Hop Pop looks completely horrified and scared as he held out his arms.
"Love doves. Felicia, Polly? Don't move or we're dead. Anne, Dereck, transform right now and kill them." Hop Pop advises the Group as Anne gave him a bewildered look.
"What? I thought they were all romantic and mate for life?"
"Yeah, and they do that by massacring all living things around them and mating on top of their prey's corpses and blood!" A panicking Hop Pop yelled as both Anne and Dereck's faces pale in shock with aghast frowns on their faces.
"Gotcha, don't worry, Grambs, because it's hero time-AAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHH!" Dereck says with a reassuring smirk before he and the others screamed in surprise as the Love Doves spotted them and screeched loudly as they flew over to grab the group with Anne and Dereck's arms being spread out and preventing them from being able to use their Omnitrixes as they and the others were whisked up into the air.
"Ooh, look, purple ones." Sprig says with a smile as we see him and Ivy lying down on the ground and were watching the Fireflies as their little spar ended in a draw and decided to spend their time enjoying the beauty of nature around them as a few Purple Fireflies flew by.
"Oh, yeah, those are babies. I read that they're purple so the moms can find them if they get lost."
"What? That's adorable." An astonished Sprig says with a smile as Ivy nodded in agreement with a giggle.
"I know, right?" Ivy asked with a beaming smile as Sprig nodded with a chuckle...but couldn't help but stare at her for a bit as a small blush appeared on his face, and his heart beat more rapidly than usual as, before Sprig can wonder what this new strange feeling is, a couple of loud screams rang out. "What the hell?!"
"That sounded like..." Ivy says before trailing off as she and Sprig glanced up at the sky and spotted the Love Doves flying past their heads while holding onto their kidnapped Family and Friends as they screamed for help.
"Our families! We gotta help them!"
"Way ahead of you!" Ivy screamed while pulling out two sticks as she tossed one of them over to Sprig. "Come on, let's go!" Ivy ordered with a determined Sprig nodding as they turned around to chase after their endangered loved ones. Speaking off, we see the Group flying through the air as the Love Doves dropped them down into their very colorful and large nest as, before Anne and Dereck could even activate their Omnitrixes, the Love Doves opened up their mouths and fired a bunch of green goo that completely captured Hop Pop, Felicia, and Polly, except for their heads as Anne and Dereck's arms and legs were captured by the green goo as the Love Doves screeched loudly before flying off.
"Uh, so they're not gonna eat us?" A confused Anne asked as Hop Pop shakes his head.
"Not right away. Love Doves prefer to let their prey marinate in fear first while they do some intense foreplay."
"Ugh, great, now I can't get the image out of my head." A disgusted Dereck says as Felicia turned to give them an annoyed glare.
"Kids, I don't mean to rush you two, but can you please transform into those Monster things and save us already?"
"Okay, in case you couldn't notice, we can only transform by activating our Omnitrixes and slamming down the cores, but we can't do either because both our hands are stuck," Dereck says with an irritated glare while gesturing his head down at his trapped hands as Felicia groaned loudly and turned to scowl at Hop Pop.
"This is all your fault, Plantar! If you taught your Grandson proper courtship technique-,"
"My fault? It's obviously yours!" Hop Pop snapped with a scowl as Anne lowered her head and shook it around for a bit as her magazine fell out of her hair and landed in front of her.
"Guys, it says here that our relationships define us, and nothing else...nothing else!" A panicking Anne yelled as she, Hop Pop, and Felicia began arguing with each other until a very annoyed Polly had enough as the Baby Frog screamed.
"Enough! It's all your fault!"
"Say what?!/No way!/ Impossible!" Hop Pop, Felicia, and Anne shouted in unison as Polly pointed at all of them with a harsh glare on her face.
"Zip it! The only reason we're here marinating is because you all had to play matchmaker! You two were greedy, plain and simple!"
"...Maybe a little/It's nuanced," A guilty Hop Pop admitted sheepishly while Felicia blushed in embarrassment as an oblivious Anne sighed in relief.
"Nice. Totally innocent for once. You two should be ashamed."
"Uh uh, don't try to take the high road, little Miss, 'I know all about romance because I read some dumb magazine'," Dereck says sassily while glaring at Anne scoldingly as she lowered her head remorsefully and was about to say something, but then-
"Hey, guys, we're here to rescue you." A smiling Sprig says while he and Ivy jumped up to land down on the Love Doves' Nest as they walked over to use their sticks to break apart the green goo trapping Anne and the others, freeing them as they all sighed in relief and thanked the Kids, who glared at them sternly as they crossed their arms.
"We're also here to tell you we don't want to date each other and we never will," Ivy stated firmly as Hop Pop nodded.
"We know. Polly set us straight."
"Look, kids, we-,"
"Sprig, I'm so sorry." Hop Pop, Felicia, and Anne said in unison before getting interrupted by the Love Doves flying back onto the scene as they landed in front of them and screeched loudly.
"I always tell them, 'Save the heartfelt apologies for when we get to safety'," Polly says dryly before being picked up by Hop Pop as he and Felicia quickly ran out of the nest while a determined Anne, Dereck, Sprig, and Ivy stood behind.
"Don't worry, guys, we got this," Anne says confidently as Dereck nodded in agreement as the Lovebirds then raised their Omnitrix Arms and reached down to press the two green buttons on their alien watches, activating them as the cores popped out, and Anne and Dereck swiftly scrolled through their alien playlists before finding the right aliens that they wanted to use as the Thai American Teenage Girl and the American Teenage Boy swiftly lifted up their arms as they proceeded to slam their hands down on the core of their Omnitrixes and dual flashes of green lights covered their bodies.
[Anne 13's Transformation Sequence]
After briefly enjoying the warm sensation of feeling a bright green luminescent light traveling across her young petite body, a smiling Anne held out her Omnitrix arm as the dial twirled around a bit and stopped as it formed a weird small hourglass green shape, and before Anne could react, a ghostly gray spirit flew out of her Omnitrix as it twirls around her young slim teenage body before diving headfirst onto her other arm as it wrapped around it like a piece of cloth and Anne's right arm transformed into a large grey ghostly arm with large sharp claws. Smirking at the readers cockily, Anne begins to let out an evil, sinister, and creepy laugh as multiple large gray tendrils appeared out of nowhere and started slowly wrapping around her body as Anne's eyeballs suddenly popped out, leaving behind two empty black sockets as her hair large poofy hair began receding and dropping down onto the floor as she was left with a bald head, but that wasn't the worst of it as her body began slowly deteriorating and was losing muscle mass fast as her skin started peeling off like a banana. Leaving behind a walking and talking skeleton as Anne stared at the readers with an emotionless look on her face before suddenly letting out a loud shriek and maniacal laugh as Anne then crossed her arms and hangs her head low as the large gray tendrils appeared and wrapped around her head, and upper torso as Anne opened her now single pink eye and flew up into the air as she spread out her arms and struck a heroic pose as another flash of green light occurred.
[Anne 13's Transformation Sequence Over]
"Ghostfreak!" Ghostfreak exclaimed while flying up into the air as she struck a heroic pose.
[Dereck 13's Transformation Sequence]
A flash of green luminescent light travels across the young boy's form as a smirking Dereck Wyatt closed his eyes and raised his Omnitrix arm as it began bulging up, and his arm slowly turned into a dark blue color, and multiple glowing yellow veins started traveling up his arm as it reached his head and the veins went up to his eyes. Lifting up his head and opening her eyes, a grinning Derteck could be seen now possessing two pairs of pupilless green thin eyes as the teenager chuckled amusedly, and his black hair grew longer as it was wrapped up into a low-hanging ponytail as he raised one of his arms and grew muscular and lost one of his fingers as the Transformed Teenage Boy clenched his fists tightly.
With his transformation sequence nearly complete, a grunting Dereck thrusted his other arm, which turned blue, and it grew muscular and lost one of his fingers as two other alien arms popped up beneath his upper arms and grunted as he leaped up into the air and slammed down in front of the readers while fully transformed into his alien form as a growling Tetra-Fist stood up stoically and began punching his four fists together a couple of times while creating small green shockwaves as Dereck then raised her fists into the air and struck a heroic pose as another flash of green light occurred.
[Dereck 13's Transformation Sequence Over]
Once the green light dies down, we see that Dereck had now transformed into a 15-feet-tall Male Tetramand with two pairs of thin green pupilless eyes, long shoulder-length spikey black hair that was pulled back into a low-hanging ponytail, black tattoo-like stripes on his head/chin/back/chest/arms/legs, no nose, a sharp chin, two pairs of four-fingered arms, Dark Blue Skin, a tall humanoid muscular slim build, two-toed feet, and his outfit consists of two pairs of green/black sunglasses, an opened long-sleeved black jacket with no shirt underneath, two light gray sashes wrapped around his chest in an 'X' formation, light gray wrist/ankle bands, a pair of fingerless green gloves, a light gray waistband with the 'Saint James High School' crest embroidered on it, long brown ripped pants, a pair of toeless green socks-shoes, and has the Omnitrix Symbol planted in the middle of his sashes. His name is-
"Tetra-Fist!" The Now-Named Tetra-Fist exclaimed while raising all of his four arms as he flexed his muscles.
"Ha, ha, ha! Wait for us, guys! Sprig and I are ready for combat. Right, Sprig?"
"..."
"Sprig?" A confused Ivy asked while looking around as she was about to call up for his name, but then-,
"Ambush!" Sprig screamed while suddenly jumping down from a tree as he flew over to land on top of Love Dove #1 and started riding around on it like a horse as the Poisonous Pink Frog began whacking his neck with his stick as Tetra-Fist chuckled amusedly and crouched down to then leap after him as an excited Ivy was about to follow after the boys to join in on the fight, but was stopped by Ghostfreak.
"Wait, I have a better idea of how you can help us out on this battle. Standby." Ghostfreak says with a sly grin as her body glowed green and turned herself intangible as she flew over to phase into Ivy's body, causing her to shiver a bit and gasp in shock as her body gained a faint green aura and her eyes turned black with glowing blue pupils as there was also black cracks underneath her eyes.
"Whoa!" An amazed Ivy shouted while looking down at her arms in awe as, while Anne was possessing her, the Female Omnitrix Wielder gave her enough consciousness to be aware of her surroundings and control over her body. "What's supposed to happen now?"
"Raise your arm," Ghostfreak instructed while speaking in Ivy's mind as she flinched in surprise.
"Aah! Don't do that! You're freaking me out!"
"Raise your arm," Ghostfreak commanded again as Ivy frowned a bit and raised her arm as she gasped in awe at the sight of her left arm morphing into a huge greenish-white ghostly three-clawed arm.
"Wicked! So, what's the plan?!" A starry-eyed Ivy asked while morphing her arm back to normal.
"You fight, I give you Ghost Powers, we fight, fight, fight, and then win."
"Works for me, Monster Girl," Ivy says with a cocky smirk while crouching down and laughed in joy as she took off into the air and left behind a green energy trail as her lower half morphs into a greenish-white ghostly tail.
Leaping through the air, a roaring Tetra-Fist slammed himself down at Love Dove #1's back just as Sprig jumped off as the Amphibian Monster screeched in pain upon feeling his back break, and Dereck jumped off as he landed on the ground and reached over to grab his wing and lifted him up into the air as Tetra-Fist began slamming Love Dove #1 up and down on the ground with a grinning Sprig jumping over to land on top of the Amphibian Monster's head as he began slamming his stick down at his face, gouging out one of his eyes and bruising his face.
Flying through the air, GhostIvy swiftly turned herself intangible and allowed Love Dove #2 to fly through her body as she then turned herself tangible and reached up to grab the Amphibian Monster's leg as GhostIvy grinned mischievously upon realizing green ghostly electricity that washed over Love Dove #2's body, electrocuting the hell out of her as she screeched in pain and flapped around panickedly as GhostIvy then grunted and used her newly Superhuman Alien Strength to twirl the Amphibian Monster around and sends her flying down to crash down into the nest below.
After letting Sprig has his fun for a bit, Tetra-Fist then commanded him to move out of the way as he nodded and the Poisonous Frog jumped off just as Dereck pulled Love Dove #1 close to him and he grabbed him with his lower arms and raised his upper arms to grab the Amphibian Monster's neck as Tetra-Fist began tying up his neck into a giant knot, choking and hurting the hell out of him as Love Dove #1 gagged loudly before croaking as he died and a smirking Tetra-Fist raised him up into the air as he tossed the dead Amphibian Monster over to land inside of his nest.
Laughing in glee, GhostIvy then flew down straight towards Love Dove #2, who recovered from the electrocution and raised herself up from her nest as she turned over to screech savagely at the Possessed Frog, who was unfazed by this as she grinned cockily and reached over to grab her chest and was able to rip apart her skin to reveal her thick black/green striped tentacles and her ungodly horrifying and decaying real body to Love Dove #2 as the Amphibian's body turned completely white with her eyes turning white as well as she screeched panickedly and flapped her wings rapidly before freezing upon feeling herself getting a fierce heart attack as Love Dove #2 screeched in pain and dropped down into the ground, dead.
"Ha, ha, ha! That was awesome!" An excited GhostIvy cheered just as Ghostfreak phased out of Ivy's body as she turned tangible and stopped glowing green.
"He, he, yeah, it was." Sprig says with a beaming smile as he and Ivy shared a high-five.
"Yeah, and nice ambush earlier, by the way.
"Well, I learned from the best." Sprig says with a wink as Ivy blushed a bit sheepishly.
"Amazing. Even in death, they're majestic." An amazed Hop Pop says while staring over at the dead Love Doves in awe as Felicia awkwardly turned to grab Ivy's hand.
"Come along now, Ivy. Let's get you home so I can apologize safely...and possibly take you to a priest to get rid of any leftover supernatural ghostly energy inside of you." Felicia says while glaring at a smiling Ghostfreak for possessing her daughter as Ivy smiled obliviously and turned to Sprig.
"See ya, Sprig!"
"See ya, Ivy!" Sprig says with a big smile on his face as he waved at Ivy and Felicia goodbye as they walked away.
"Sprig, next time we won't get the courtship kit out until you're good and ready." Hop Pop says while reaching over to place his hand on Sprig's shoulder with a comforting smile on his face. "Now I can focus on finding love for Polly."
"NOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOO!" A horrified and angry Polly screamed as Hop Pop held her tightly and walked off as Tetra-Fist and Ghostfreak walked/floated over to Sprig.
"Well, that's the end of that. Now you and Ivy can go back to being just friends." Ghostfreak says with a warm smile as Sprig flinches and nodded tensely as he blushed sheepishly.
"...Oh, you just totally fell in love with her, didn't you?" A deadpanned Tetra-Fist asked as Sprig nodded in embarrassment and smiled awkwardly as Dereck and Anne facepalmed with a loud groan.
~[Amphibia 13 Post Credit Scene]~
"Ugh, do I really have to do this?" An embarrassed Anne says with a groan as we fast forward in time and we cue back over to the Plantar Residence as we zoom down into Anne/Dereck's Shared Basement/Room, and we see a grinning Dereck resting on their heart-shaped bed while wearing his pajamas as Anne can be seen stripping down her pajamas from behind their changing curtains.
"Hey, you were the one that made the bet and lost, so you have to reap what you sow," Dereck says with an amused laugh just as the curtains were pulled back, and it showed a blushing Anne standing in place while wearing nothing but her pink bra and panties as Dereck whistled playfully and gave her a one over as he blushed but smirked at her tauntingly as Anne growled at him in annoyance with a frown...before perking up as a genius idea popped into her head and grinned devilishly.
"Hmmm, you know what? You are right. I'm the one that lost the best, so I should take the consequences." Anne says as an oblivious Dereck nods and was about to go to sleep, but then flinched in surprise as Anne rushed forward and leaped over to land down on their heart-shaped bed, much to Dereck's shock as he blushed heavily.
"A-Anne, what are you doing?!"
"What? I'm going to bed to sleep in my underwear. Just like what we agreed to on our bet~," Anne says with half-lid eyes and a mischievous smirk while turning to face Dereck as he blushed harder and trembled a bit.
"U-Uh, yeah, but I-I thought y-you would be s-sleeping in o-one our spared b-beds."
"Hey, you didn't say which bed I have to sleep in my underwear in specifically," Anne says with a giggle while wrapping her arm and leg around Dereck's body to pull him close to her with her breasts pressed against his chest and his crotch was smushed against her crotch as Dereck felt his cock slowly grow hard due to being so close to his beautiful crush.
"But-,"
"Goodnight, Dereck~," Anne says while lifting her head to lean in and kiss Dereck's forehead before lying her head on his chest and purred as she pretend to go to sleep.
"Anne? Anne! Come on, Anne! Wake up! This isn't funny!" A worried and annoyed Dereck yelled while reaching up to place his hand on Anne's shoulder and shook her around to try and wake her up, only for her to continue 'sleeping' and buried her face into his chest deeply while lightly thrusting her hips against Dereck's hardening cock as it slowly went to full mast.
"Oh, god! What have I done?!" A horrified and nervous Dereck thought to himself panickedly upon realizing that, even when he won, he still lost because now he will spend a whole week getting constantly blue-balled and waking up with morning wood as a smirking Anne opened one of her eyes and winked at the readers playfully before she went back to cuddling with her crush and started going to sleep for real.
