IN MEMORY OF MICHAEL JETER
In the middle of the city we were fighting a monster called Chumba Bagingi.
Nico: (to Chumba Bagingi) Bagingi, just come quietly. It'll save you a whole lot of pain.
Chumba Bagingi: And leave the spotlight? Never! It was generously given to me by that hooded fellow.
Eddy: That hooded guy was a Death Eater!
Me: Yeah and they were out to destroy the entirety of the human race!
Nico: Yeah! They were completely out of their fucking minds!
Me: And they all got banished to the Warp for their crimes.
Nico: Yeah!
We punched and smashed and pulverized the monster all over.
Zick fired a blast of energy dom and it hit the monster all over and then he caught the monster in his catcher.
Catcher Computer: Chumba Bagingi, Threat Level: Mild.
Zick: There. One down and many more to go.
Me: Yep. But we can catch them all like Pokemon.
Nico: Yep.
Lincoln: But that was cool how you got all that done Zick.
Zick: Thanks guys.
Me: You're welcome.
Later back at the estate, I was doing research on all of the enemies that Dan Kuso and his friends all faced throughout their journeys when they got their Bakugan.
Naga
Naga is the main antagonist of Bakugan Battle Brawlers . He is the creator and leader of the Doom Beings as well as Wavern's twin brother.
He was voiced by Hideyuki Umezu in Japanese and John Stocker in English. Stocker also voiced King Zenoheld in season 2.
Past
Naga and his twin sister Wavern were born during the Great Revolution (the conflict between Drago's ancestor Genesis Dragonoid and Dharaks ancestor Dharaknoid), as they became trapped in the empty space between dimensions and were outcasts due were not aligned with any of the six regions of Vestroia, so they were known as the White Ones. Over the years, Naga grew bitter and cold due to being treated like an outcast for so long.
Bakugan Battle Brawlers
Naga and Wavern meet Drago when he was able to get across from his Pyrus Space, Drago greets them both, but Naga only cared about himself and was angry for being born powerless. He tried to go to the center of Vestroia to get the power of both cores, despite Drago's warning, but failed and accidentally created the shockwave that caused a strange phenomenon on Earth where cards fall from the sky and the Bakugan transporting themselves to the human world. After Dr. Michael went to Vestroia by accident, they met each other for the first time. Michael explained to him about the Dimensional Transporter, unaware about his true motives. At last, Naga expelled Michael back to Earth and used a Dimensional Transporter Card he got from him to succesfully enter the center of Vestroia.
After transporting himself to the center, Naga attempted to capture the powers of the Silent Core and Infinity Core, sources of negative and positive energy respectively of Vestroia, by going to them directly and absorbing them to fulfill what he believed to be his destiny. He failed, however, and was unable to control the power of the Silent Core, only being able to absorb the Silent Core after it trapped him inside; after that, catastrophic energy surge was caused due to the huge amount of negative energy was released and the Infinity Core became bonded to his twin sister, Wavern, who was sucked into a portal to the human world.
This disaster caused the negative energy to spill all over Vestroia and the Earth, including the Bakugan on Earth, and he created Hal-G and Masquerade from the unsuspecting Dr. Michael and Alice, who were exposed to excessive negative energy when Naga absorbed the Silent Core. Naga used them both to hunt for the Infinity Core from Wavern and also supplied them powerful abilities like Doom Cards to send fallen Bakugan to the Doom Dimension.
Near the end Naga fought with Wavern until Drago destroyed her, on her request and sent her back to Vestroia as Naga said. Ultimate Dragonoid then took the Infinity Core and became Infinity Dragonoid fighting Naga to the very end. He was eventually destroyed by Drago, being sent to the Doom Dimension for his failures.
King Zenoheld
King Zenoheld is the main antagonist of Bakugan Battle Brawlers: New Vestroia, but he makes an official appearance in the second arc. He was the former King of Vestal, but did not seem to bond very well with Hydron, his son and servant. He was one of the adult-brawlers in the series (aside from Spectra Phantom Klaus von Hertzon, Julio Santana and some of the Twelve Orders). He uses a Mechanical Bakugan called Pyrus Farbros, made by Professor Clay. Out of all the Vexos he was shown to be the cruelest among them as he is willing to kill his opponents rather than just simply defeating them.
He was voiced by John Stocker, who also voiced Naga in the first season, and Defacely Marmeister in Hammerman.
In the first arc of Bakugan Battle Brawlers: New Vestroia, Zenoheld had little interaction with the Resistance or the Vexos.
He first appears in a flashback, where Mira Fermin tells Dan and Marucho how the Vexos took over vestial.
The only time he appeared was when he nagged Hydron for not taking better care of the Dimension Controllers. He seems to be impatient with him due to his constant failure. He will also check in with him and make sure that he is still on the right track, although Hydron shrugs his warnings and discipline off, as he thinks he is doing fine without his father's constant nagging. Zenoheld is also mentioned when the Vexos prepare to retreat, as Hydron worried that blame would be shifted onto him by his father.
In the second arc of Bakugan Battle Brawlers: New Vestroia, he flees Vestal after the Bakugan Battle Brawlers Resistance told all of Vestal that they were lied to and resides in his palace on the outer skirts of the galaxy that is remote from civilization. He is revealed to be a brawler and he sends a message to the Six Ancient Warriors to surrender their Attribute Energies to him so that Professor Clay can power up the Bakugan Termination System. They decline his offer at first, but then they decide to battle him. When they arrive, Zenoheld reveals that he owns a Mechanical Bakugan, Pyrus Farbros. After a tough battle, Zenoheld comes out victorious, but the Ancients escaped and entrusted their Attribute Energies to the Resistance.
After hearing the news of the Attribute Energies being dispersed throughout New Vestroia and Earth, he entrusts Mylene Farrow with the duty of picking another Subterra Brawler to replace Gus in the Vexos. She chooses Hydron, and he says that he "couldn't have picked better himself". After Hydron gains the Haos Energy after he defeats Baron in a brawl he says "I knew I could count on you...Hydron", revealing that he now trusts him with responsibility more than he did in the first season.
Soon after Volt Luster come back from brawling, he sees a transmission from Spectra, saying that the Vexos, Hydron and Zenoheld himself were responsible for the mess in the previous season. This causes him to send Shadow Prove to seek out Dan and the others so that he'll get the Attribute Energies first. But when he does, he realizes Spectra jammed the transporting system, making it impossible to travel to Vestal and back. This infuriates him, knowing that he is up to something. Eventually, though, Shadow Prove goes to Earth and brawls Chan Lee and Alice (who don't have any Attribute Energies). He wins and proves himself to Zenoheld. He is later shown confronting Spectra and Gus Grav when they infultrate the palce demanding they leave the bralwers alone. Gus however reenters and challenges the King to a brawl which he accepts. Zenoheld won with the Farbros-Assail formation, and destroyed Blast Elico, and his Bakugan Trap Hexados. However, Gus and Vulcan survived the final blow and were imprisoned.
When the Resistance and Spectra attack the mother Palace He and Hyrdon Brawl Dan Mira and Spectra. However, he does not brawl until Hydron beats Mira but loses to Dan and Spectra. Zenoheld beats Spectra and Dan after a long fight. but Farbros was destroyed due to Twin Destructor, and he takes the Pyrus energy from Cross Dragonoid.
In Episode 42, he almost launched the Bakugan Termination System, and then Cross Dragonoid and Helios MK2 try to destroy it, but fail. When Cross Dragonoid brings the B.T. System into the atmosphere and absorbed all the Attribute Energies from it Zenoheld was furious and was eventually going do something about it.
In episode 45, he takes his frustration out on Hydron demanding to know whose fault it was for the destruction of the BT System and being forced to flee to another dimension. After Professor Clay told him about how he could rule over all dimensions he had Clay create the Alternative Weapon to destroy Earth and Vestal.
Soon after Zenoheld announces to the Vexos of his plan to destroy Vestal and Earth with the Alternative Weapons System but becomes angry when Volt questions him about the mission. When Volt leaves the Vexos, he becomes even more enraged and tells Hydron to take care of him. He was later pleased when Volt was finally taken care of and warned the other Vexos that they would suffer the same fate should they betray him.
The next day Zenoheld asks Professor Clay if he needs help with the Alternative Weapon System. After hearing that Spectra joined the brawlers, and the brawlers have the same data as the Vexos, Zenoheld orders the remaining Vexos to seize the data that the brawlers posses. Later, Mylene reports to him that Lync Volan headed to Earth with a copy of the Alternative data with him. He orders Hydron to take care of Lync. After Hydron disposes of Lync, he returns to Zenoheld expecting to be praised, but Zenoheld roughly dismisses him.
In episode 49, it is revealed that Zenoheld took his anger against Hydron for another time due to his failure to destroy the unauthorized copy of the Alternative's data and the loss of Mylene and Shadow Prove. He battled against Hydron to see who would have the throne, and won. Hydron was then jailed, along with Gus Grav. Zenoheld stated that they were never destined to be father and son and said in battle that he was never happy with Hydron since he was born, seeing him as a disgrace to the Royal Family's name.
In episode 50, he battled Spectra, who rammed into his palace. During the entire battle he was losing, even with Assail Farbros, due to the fact that later Gus joined Spectra. However, when Farbros combined with the Alternative, he overpowered both of them.
In episodes 51 and 52, he uses the Alternative against the brawlers, but when the Alternative was destroyed Farbros was destroyed by Dryoid by stabbing Farbros in the back, causing it to shut down. Hydron then used Dryoid to trap Zenoheld until the Alternative explodes, killing all three.
He is mentioned by Dan in the introduction of Season 3 and Season 4 (first fourteen episodes and one episode of Arc 2).
Barodius
Emperor Barodius (possibly known as Koutei Barodius in the Japanese version), later known as Mag Mel is the main antagonist of Bakugan: Gundalian Invaders, and later the main antagonist of the first arc in Bakugan: Mechtanium Surge. His Bakugan partner is Dharak.
Later, he and Dharak were imprisoned by Code Eve when they refused to accept defeat and were transformed into the beings called Mag Mel and Razenoid. Barodius is the arch-nemesis of Dan Kuso.
He was voiced by Shawn Meunier.
Bakugan: Gundalian Invaders
Barodius first appeared in Dan Kuso's vision, ordering the rest of the Twelve Orders Bakugan to destroy the Neathian Bakugan. Later, Barodius is seen on Gundalia asking the other Twelve Order members what they found out about the powerful Bakugan on Earth. Hearing about the unknown Bakugan's strength and power, he ordered Gill to make sure they came to their side instead of their enemies', the Neathians. It was then that he sent Sid Arkale and Lena Isis to learn more by visiting (and ultimately brawling) in Bakugan Interspace.
The next day, Barodius spoke to Gill briefly about how the recruitment of human battlers was coming along, and told Dharak that his services are not yet required. He watched the progress of the human recruits with the rest of the Twelve Orders. While Dharak noted that they weren't too bad, Barodius wasn't satisfied, ordering Ren Krawler to gather more brawlers by any means, having become more eager to obtain ultimate power and something he referred to only as "The Element."
Later, Barodius, Gill and Kazarina demanded to know why Ren had failed to bring the Battle Brawlers over to their side. Kazarina mentions a rumor going around that Ren has come to sympathize with their enemies to which Barodius warns Ren that if he finds out he has betrayed him, he will be punished severely. He also appeared in a flashback about Ren's past when Barodius chose him to lead his team to Earth. When Sid returns after failing to defeat Dan Kuso and losing the Element, Barodius was furious and punishes Sid and Rubanoid for their failure. He gave Ren one last chance to set things right, and warned him not to mess it up.
A few days later, Barodius and the rest of the Twelve Orders were furious with Ren's Team for their constant failures and ordered a preemptive strike on the Neathians. He and the other Twelve Orders fought the Battle Brawlers on Neathia in order to get the Sacred Orb. Barodius formed Dharak Colossus and used him to break down the Neathian's Second Shield. He then met Dan and Drago for the first time and battled against them. In the middle of Dharak and Drago's fight, the Sacred Orb sent Dharak and Barodius, along with all the other Gundalians, back to Gundalia. He wondered what powerful object could send all the Gundalians off of Neathia, and later suspected that the Element was responsible.
In a flashback, when Nurzak comes to visit Barodius and warns him again about why his father refused to possess the power of the Sacred Orb, but he responds by cruelly insulting his late father by calling him a "superstitious old fool" and they should embrace the Sacred Orb and gain the ultimate power for himself. Nurzak secretly gets disgusted by Barodius of always speaking ill of his late father and insulting his memory.
Barodius tortures Kazarina as punishment for letting Mason Brown escape and then failing to get him back, seemingly turning her against him. Gill informs Barodius of Nurzak and Kazarina's rebellion and he managed to stop Nurzak before he could make a peace treaty with Neathia and attempt to overthrow him. They argue over the views of Barodius' father who respected and feared the Sacred Orb's power, as does Nurzak, who offers Barodius one last chance to call off the war on Neathia or face the consequences, but he selfishly refuses, once again calling his father nothing more than a superstitious old fool. Nurzak has finally had enough of Barodius' tyranny and the way he always treated his father and not caring about him at all. However, Nurzak knew Barodius would refuse to stand down and orders Kazarina and the soldiers to capture Barodius, but they refuse. It was then revealed that Barodius sent Kazarina to spy on Nurzak to prevent his betrayal. Barodius battles Nurzak and defeated him with Dharak's AirKor (while killing the soldiers in the process) but he was thought to have killed Nurzak, but he was simply banished to the space in between dimensions. Afterwards, Barodius cruelly laughs at the destruction of his father's portrait.
Barodius reveals to Ren that he was only keeping him around because of the Forbidden Power that Linehalt possesses. He promised Ren that he would have the life in the sun he always dreamed of after they defeated the Neathians. He then launches a campaign to permanently destroy the renewed Second Shield. He easily defeats Dan and Drago and then pierces a hole in the Second Shield. After ordering Ren to finish Dan and Drago off, by promising to reveal the secrets of Linehalt's Forbidden Power, Ren decides to switch sides and betrays Barodius.
He fights Ren and was winning until he taunted Ren for not being worthy enough to posses a Bakugan as powerful as Linehalt and admitting that he never intended to give them true freedom, causing Linehalt to unleash his Forbidden Power, which briefly takes out Dharak and threatens to destroy the planet. The Sacred Orb then summons it's last line of defence, Dragonoid Colossus, which defeated Linehalt and disappeared in Dan's BakuMeter. After seeing this, Barodius decided to retreat but swore to get his hands on Dragonoid Colossus.
Later back in Gundalia, Barodius sees that Dan is the one in possession of Dragonoid Colossus and ordered Gill and Airzel to separate him from the others so that he could battle him and take it personally. He later tells the hypnotised Jake Vallory that he is going to help him destroy the Battle Brawlers. Barodius later confronts Dan when he stumbles across the throne room.
Barodius challenges Dan for the power of Dragonoid Colossus, saying that Dharak was the only one worthy of possessing it's powers, and called Dan pathetic for putting his friends before himself. They then battled, but despite Drago's new powers, Dharak easily overpowered him. Just as he was about to win, Dan restored Drago's confidence and a brand new ability was unlocked which he used to defeat Barodius. Dan demanded Jake to be returned, to which he complied, but Jake is still under the effect of Gundalian hypnosis and he knocked Dan out. Barodius enjoys Dan's suffering and orders Jake to take Dan and Drago to Kazarina's lab.
In Kazarina's lab, Barodius watches Dharak evolve into Phantom Dharak alongside Kazarina and Gill and when Kazarina asked Barodius if he wanted to rename Dharak and he renamed him Phantom Dharak. After Dharak evolves, Barodius says to Kazarina that he is going to Neathia and promotes her as his new second-in-command and leaves her charge of Gundalia while he is gone, much to Gill's jealously and dismay.
When Barodius arrives on Neathia, he uses Phantom Dharak to destroy the 3rd Shield and he was successful. Barodius unleashes his massive army of Gundalian Soldiers and a brainwashed Lena, Jesse Glenn and Zenet Surrow to attack Neathia after Phantom Dharak destroyed the 3rd Shield. Barodius enjoys watching the Neathians suffer and many Castle Knights dying in his onslaught.
However, Dan and the other Battle Brawlers arrive just in time to help the Castle Knights. Dan warns Barodius it's the end for him. Stoica and Airzel arrive to help Barodius, but note the absence of Gill and Kazarina. Stoica reports that Kazarina is still brawling Princess Fabia, and that Gill's ship was damaged by the Brawlers and needs repair. Later after Kazarina's death, Barodius overhears Airzel and Stoica's conversation that Gill really stayed behind to get revenge on Kazarina and killed her out of jealously. Lena, Zenet and Jesse are free from Kazarina's mind control and join the Brawlers and Castle Knights in battling Barodius, Airzel and Stoica. When Dan tells Barodius to surrender as he is outnumbered, he and Dharak are not bothered by this threat and with one attack, they defeat all of the Castle Knights and their Bakugans.
Fabia, Nurzak and Mason return to help, but Barodius easily defeats them and the rest of the Brawlers one by one; leaving only Dan and Drago. Just before entering the castle, Gill arrives to help Barodius in the battlefield, and claims Kazarina was taken down by Fabia in their battle. But Barodius reveals he had been listening to Stoica and Airzel's conversation and knows that Gill killed Kazarina. Barodius and Dharak attack Gill's ship and killed him along with Krakix, Airzel and Strikeflier in cold blood. Next Dharak sacrifices both Stoica and Lythirus to destroy Dragonoid Colossus. When Barodius reaches the castle, he wipes out the Neathian guards and goes to confront Queen Serena personally. In the throne room, when Dan is about to tackle Barodius and stop him from killing Queen Serena, the Sacred Orb teleports them (along with Drago and Dharak) to the space in between dimensions for them to face off in their final battle. The four of them are greeted by Code Eve, who is the Sacred Orb and the source of all Bakugan DNA.
Barodius and Dharak face Dan and Drago in their final battle for control over the Sacred Orb and the fate of the universe. At first, Barodius has the upper hand and plans to kill Dan and Drago while they are down, but Drago regains consciousness and defeats them and Code Eve returns back to Neathia. After Barodius loses his battle against Dan, he refuses to surrender and summons Dharak again to steal the Sacred Orb and take all of it's power for themselves. But they are both seemingly destroyed by an overload of vast energy and power from taking too much from Sacred Orb. Everyone celebrates Barodius' defeat and presumed death and peace is restored to both Neathia and Gundalia. Plus Gundalia is finally free from Barodius' tyrannical rule.
Bakugan: Mechtanium Surge
In Bakugan: Mechtanium Surge, it is revealed that Barodius and Dharak are not destroyed but mutated into Mag Mel and Razenoid and imprisoned into the dark reverse dimension of Bakugan Interspace by Code Eve. They are restrained by some webbing that causes them to share their pain. Mag Mel creates Anubias and Sellon and send them to Bakugan Interspace to make generate amounts of Chaos Energy which would make him and Razenoid stronger. he also uses the Tri-Twisters and the Bash Brothers to give him more power. After he is freed from his prison, Mag Mel tries to conquer Gundalia by killing all Gundalians but Dan shun Raife Paige and Marucho defeat him and his mechtogon Braxion, Smasheon, Rockfist, Deezall, Venexus, and Miserak with help from Spectra Phantom and Helios. Once they outlived their usefullness Mag Mel kills Sellon and soon after Anubias when he do not need them after they give him the Key and the Gate's powers, and when him and Razenoid resurrect, he send out 96 Dreadeon Titan clones to the five corners of the Earth to destroy it and its destruction will destroy Vestal, Gundalia, Neathia and New Vestroia, (9 Titans Dreadeon in the first wave and 87 in the second wave). Whereas his mechtogan Dreadeon and Dreadeon Titan are killed along with Zenthon and Zenthon Titan, Razenoid is killed once and for all by Drago evolved as Fusion Dragonoid thanks to the gate and the key's power. Mag Mel dies soon after and tries to kill Dan with him but fails.

I gasped in sheer shock and then that shock turned into rage.
Me: (GROWLS) That Barodius!
Nico: I can't believe he is that evil! He would kill his own followers!?
I clenched my fist tight and then I had blood poured out through my knuckles.
Me: Barodius, when we fight in the future, I will kill you 100,000,000 times over! You will face my wrath 100,000,000-fold.
Nico: I hate him too J.D. but calm down.
Me: (Sigh) Yeah you're right. But in the future we might face the other two and we will kill them and Super Hakai them.
Nico: They are ultimate evil.
Lincoln: Yeah they are.
Maria heard the sound of a train.
Maria: Astrotrain, I thought we told you not to use your train mode unless we're near train tracks.
Astrotrain: That wasn't me.
Me: Wait a second. I know that train horn. I haven't heard that horn in 10 years. Lets go guys!

Poromon: This isn't the first time I've met Santa.
Me: No it wasn't. The first time was when we saved him from his evil brother Satan Claus.
Holly: Santa had an evil brother?
Me: He sure did and it was an ugly story.
I told them all about what happened during our battle with Satan Claus on Thanksgiving 2 years ago and it was awesome.
Holly: WHOA!
Chris: Wow! That is amazing!
Shiv: That is amazing.
We were now close to the North Pole as we were on the edge of the Border of Nunavut, Canada.
Robo Blaze: I think we're almost there.
We looked outside and sure enough we were not far from Santa's village.
Me: Yep. This is it.
Nico: Wow!
Lana: Wow! Santa's village!
Chris: So cool!
Nico: By the way J.D. did you beat any bad guys that were known on the Polar Express?
Me: As a matter of fact I did. I beat a puppet that looked a lot like Ebenezer Scrooge. And you know what's interesting? We do the play for A Christmas Carol tomorrow night on Christmas Eve.
Nico: We sure do.
I went over the puppet's history.
The Ebenezer Scrooge Puppet is a minor antagonist in the 2004 Warner Bros. film The Polar Express (which is based on the 1985 children's book of the same name by Chris Van Allsburg), and the main antagonist of the video game.
He was voiced by Tom Hanks in the film, and Jim Hanks in the video game.
FilmWhen the Conductor shows Hero Boy and Hero Girl the toys that were mistreated and thrown away, the Hero Boy is left alone in the abandoned toy car and the Scrooge puppet scares him by calling him a doubter who doesn't believe in Christmas. It is revealed that the Scrooge puppet is actually being controlled by the Hobo from the roof of the car. Hero Boy watches the puppet and, unaware that the Hobo is controlling it, flees and runs back to the main passenger car.
Video GameScrooge is first seen spying on the children while they look out the window at Herpolsheimer's, much to his disgust. He explains that the children won't believe in Santa when he steals their tickets and that they will be thrown off the train if they don't have their tickets. Later, after stealing the tickets, he gets some of his minions to assist him in prevent the children from getting their tickets back. However, with the help of Hero Boy, the children were able to retrieve their tickets.
Hero Boy has a food fight with Scrooge and some of his friends in the dining car while trying to retrieve Know-It-All's ticket. When Billy gets left behind, Scrooge confronts him and taunts him. Scrooge throws soccer balls at Hero Boy, but he manages to defeat him and hit the brakes for Billy to get on.
Hero Boy manages to defeat Scrooge's minions and retrieve all the tickets. Scrooge becomes angry and steals the Hero Girl's ticket, which results in her being put in charge of driving the train. However, the Hero Boy finds the ticket and, with the help of the Hobo, gets to the locomotive by skiing down the mountain.
Later, Hero Boy and Hero Girl encounter the Scrooge puppet one more time while trying to return to the passenger cars. He has become very large and gained an opening in his chest that shows his heart. Hero Boy tries telling him that Christmas is not about toys, but he scoffs. Hero Boy has encouragement from the other children, so he defeats him by throwing snowballs at his heart and he disappears.
Nico: WHOA! That's rough! Just like the iconic character but worse.
Ronnie Anne: No kidding.
Me: Yep. I got all the tickets back and destroyed the puppet by setting him on fire.
Chris: I remember that! That was awesome!
Holly: Yeah it was!
Lincoln: That is so cool!
Laney: Wow!
Vypra: You are a true hero of Christmas.
Me: Thanks guys.
The train parked and we got off.
Electro: Think we should tell Santa to keep an eye out for the original Morbucks?
Me: Good idea Max.
Nico: Yeah.
Me: But Santa now has a lot of security enhanced ever since what happened with his list a long time ago.
Blossom (Adult): That's right. I remember that.
Lincoln: Good.
We went in and saw Santa.
Manaphy: Hi there, Santa!
Santa Claus: Ho ho ho! Team Loud Phoenix Storm! It's great to see you all again.
Me: You too Santa. We rode the Polar Express.
Nico: How have things been?
Santa Claus: Busy as always. I take off for my flight around the world in the next 2 hours.
Me: Wow.
Laney: It's great to see you Santa.
Me: And just so you know we have Morbucks with us but this is the 2016 version and she is not like the one that you put on the Permanent Naughty Plaque.
Santa Claus: I understand. I appreciate you telling me that.
Me: You're welcome.
Vypra: What is the Permanent Naughty Plaque?
Me: That's a plaque reserved for the most rotten and most despicable and most irredeemable of all children.
I went to show them the plaque and they saw the plaque and it had many more names.
Me: Wow. There were fewer names than this on here the last time we saw it.
Nico: Chandler, Peter Griffin, Glenn Quagmire, Icky Vicky, Roger Klotz, Hawk & Hank, May & Lee Kanker, Mr. Burns, Joe Quimby, Butch & Woim, Billy McLean, Lila Rossi and Brittney Wong. Wow! I didn't know they were added too.
Lincoln: Looks like they are going to the darkness of the Inferno.
Me: Yep.
2016 Morbucks: Wow! So my original self is on here.
Me: Yep and we killed her twice. But she will return on Christmas in 2 days. When we face her she will REALLY come after all of us. But when we defeat her, instead of banishing her to the Warp, I have a worse prison for her.
Nico: What is it?
Me: (Sinister Laughter) It's the Rotten Egg Mine in Azerbaijan.
Nico: A Rotten Egg Mine?
Me: I found it after the Global Super Race was won and it's in the sewers of Baku, Azerbaijan. The smell from such a place can make your stomach turn inside out at the slightest whiff.
Nico: Nice! That's perfect for her.
Lincoln: Yeah it is.
Blossom: Good!
Nico: Yeah!
Me: Yep.
We had an awesome time at the North Pole and we helped load all of the presents and Santa was ready for takeoff.
We helped him get ready and with 30 minutes to spare.
THE END
Another Awesome fanfic complete!
The Polar Express is one of my favorite stories and it was so cool how those kids went on an awesome train to Santa's Village at the North Pole. This chapter was also made as a tribute to the late Michael Jeter who starred in this movie as his last role before he died. He starred in Zelig, Tango & Cash, The Fisher King, Sister Act 2: Back in the Habit, Waterworld, Air Bud, Patch Adams, The Green Mile, Jurassic Park III, Welcome to Collinwood, Open Range, and more.
R.I.P. Michael Jeter: August 26, 1952 – March 30, 2003.
NicoChan11, JediAvatarOfShinobi, Omegahatchiyak12, XP4Universe and ninjakingofhearts all gave me the ideas for this. Thanks guys. Next up for Christmas Eve is a legendary and awesome timeless classic as we all perform a play for the famous play from Charles Dickens A Christmas Carol. Get ready to see Lincoln and his friends on as the legendary and famous Ebenezer Scrooge and see how he changes his ways from hating Christmas. This will be the first ever play we've ever done in a chapter.
See you all tomorrow.
