As the day was starting to wind down, Crunch was seriously starting to wonder. The super bandicoot was still living on the island with his girlfriend, Liz.
Liz walked over to him and asked, "Crunch, honey, what's wrong?"
Crunch looked at her and answered, "Just thinking about what happened years ago before I became an island hero."
Liz perked up and questioned, "And what might that be?"
Crunch sighed and answered, "When Crash and Cortex were fighting when I was still on his side; I saw the Elementals in their power crystals. I never thought they would return during the war."
Liz stated, "Well, apparently they did but you never had to fight them."
Crunch replied, "I know but I wanted to."
Liz gasped, "Crunch, you couldn't! They are all too powerful."
Crunch stated, "They might have given me my life but I do not owe them a thing. I want to give them a proper pounding!"
Liz was about to say something to her boyfriend when...
"You're not the only one," said a voice.
Liz and Crunch both spun around and saw that Coral was standing right there.
She added, "The power of the elements run through me too in a way and I want to pound them into the ground for sure!"

Back in Dimmsdale, Wanda asked, "Okay, even if Velma Dinkley does know, Scooby would've mentioned it. Right?"
Timmy answered, "No, the timing for that would be off a bit. Even if Scooby knew, he wouldn't have told us in the first place. He doesn't like scary things like that, especially if it deals with the end of the world or anything like that."
Tootie perked up at this and asked, "What do you mean Timmy?"
Timmy answered, "Scooby told me that Scrappy once tried to take over the world. After solving the Lunar Ghost mystery, constant arguments among the members of Mystery, Inc. cause the gang to go their separate ways. Two years later, Shaggy and Scooby were approached to solve the mystery of the popular horror resort Spooky Island, reuniting with Freddy, Daphne, and Velma. To make a long story short, Scrappy got a hold of something called the Daemon Ritus."
A.J. crossed his arms in front of his chest and asked, "Something to control demons with, last I checked. Right?"
Timmy answered, "Yeah and it corrupted Scrappy. He wanted Scooby's soul to complete the ritual to get revenge. He turned into a giant demon to destroy the gang and rule the world using the tourists' souls he absorbed. But the gang managed to get Scrappy to his original self."
Everyone was in awe about this.
Remy asked, still in shock, "Scooby Doo once saved the world...?"
Winston started to add, "Then why wasn't he a..."
"Chosen One," a voice asked.
Everyone saw Paradox there, the creator of this new timeline.
"Paradox," Timmy asked, "What are you doing here?"
Paradox answered, "I did tell your great uncle about the possible coming of Nibiru but there is a reason I did."
A.J. raised an eyebrow and asked, "And that is…?" Paradox answered, "To see what Adrian would do."
"Adrian," Trixie repeated.
Tootie started to ask, "Isn't that also the code name of…"
"Anti-Timothy," Chester finished.
Winston started to freak out as he asked, "What is he up to?!"
Remy shrugged and answered, "Not sure."
Iris stated, "But I can practically guess that the trouble is just beginning."
"That would probably be a good home run," Roger replied.
Lionel nodded in agreement as did Wanda, Cosmo, Poof, and Binky.
Paradox stated, "Oh, the trouble is indeed starting so be prepared. You need to stop him and clear the name of the crew."
With that, Paradox disappeared...

"Ability activate," a voice yelled, "Dragon Force Striker!"
A mighty roar was heard as a bright red light enveloped an old abandoned stadium. The red light was coming from no other than Drago. With him was his human brawler and best friend, Dan. Dan and Drago were training like this for some time after the war. Dan wanted to make sure that Drago was in tip top shape.
"Looking great, pal," Dan complimented Drago.
Drago responded, "It felt great, Dan. I feel stronger than ever."
Dan smiled and responded, "I do too. I think it was because I was finally able to learn that Ash was alright. That alone has improved and maybe even up our game!"
"I agree with you on that one hundred percent," Drago commented as he returned to ball form.
Dan caught Drago in his right hand just as his Baku-meter started to ring. He looked at it and saw that his mom, Miyoko, was calling.
"Hey, mom," Dan greeted.
"Daniel Preston Kusco," Miyoko nagged, "Do you know what time it is?"
Dan answered, putting his hand behind his head, "Uh, not really. The Baku-meters don't have clocks in them."
Miyoko sighed and told her only son, "Well, it is almost dinner time and I want you and Drago to get back home as soon as you can!"
"Yes, mom," both Dan and Drago said at the same time.
Dan quickly dashed out of Bakugan Interspace and started to head for home. Unknown to him, someone was watching him and Drago train. It was a person that looked like Spectra and Shadow Prove….

Johnny Test and Dukey were busy as well…busy hanging with Sissy and Missy. After the war, Sissy and Johnny had gotten together. Oddly enough, so did Susan and Eugene aka "Bling-Bling Boy". Mary and Gil also had gotten together and Hugh and Lila were more than happy for their children. Things around the Test house had changed a lot but that didn't mean that once in a while, the Test kids did something stupid and they had to correct it with Agent Black, Agent White, and the General.
Things couldn't have been better. Johnny was walking with Sissy back to her house, hand-in-hand. Their dogs were walking alongside them. In fact, if one didn't know any better, it seemed like they were actually talking in a human language rather than their own animal language. But, that was a story for another time.
Johnny told Sissy, "You know, I'm kind of glad that Anti-Cosmo went after my key. Otherwise, we would've never gotten together."
Sissy responded, "I'm not sure, Johnny. I think this was going to happen either way. It just happened sooner." She paused and asked, "And what about Janet? Do you miss her?"
Johnny winced. Janet Nelson Jr. was Johnny's other crush. She was a lot like Trixie Tang but Johnny could never love someone as snobby as Janet. Besides, she had moved away from Porkbelly a long time ago.
"Nah," Johnny answered, "I don't miss her. In fact, it was because of her that those weird pants attacked town."
Johnny was referencing the time where he had asked Susan and Mary to make him smart, to impress Janet. They were called Super Smarty Pants. Naturally, Johnny defeated them by shredding them. Then his sisters put them into a container and dropped them off at the North Pole. Sissy snuggled into her boyfriend, affectionately which Johnny didn't mind.
"You've got a point, Johnny," Sissy said, "I just hope that those things don't come back."
"Me too, Sissy," Johnny responded, "Me too."
Unknown to Johnny, someone had arrived at the North Pole. Someone took out a small round container that was shoved underneath the ice. Inside were these white jeans with a low flare draggy bottom that was once described as 'adds style'….
