Chapter 100: Déjà vu:
Aku's POV:
It feels like the 100th Day of that samurai interfering.
"That Samurai has been too much of a pest," I said.
"In retrospect, sending him to this time was not the best idea," says Dazrin.
"SILENCE! Mean, Nasty, I need a new idea, now!"
"We could... no wait, we tried that," says Mean.
"Maybe... we tried that too," says Nasty.
"Maybe that's the idea," says Mandy as she enters.
"Yes," I said, "maybe that is."
"Your plan is to use already failed plans," asks Dazrin.
"SILENCE!"
Jack's POV:
I was walking when I entered a strange forest. There was something odd about it, but I wasn't sure what. As I was walking, I was then surrounded, but it was the Galactic Kids Next Door.
"Oh, hello, my young friends..." They then fired their blasters at me. I had to dodge. Strange, it was like when I met them. But I was sure they changed their ways. I had to keep dodging as the Galactic Kids Next Door kept trying to blast me. "What has gotten into you? Is Numbuh Aleph Zero back?"
I then had to run.
. . .
There was something strange, but I wasn't sure what. I then saw something jumping from tree to tree. It was the demented Demencia and her employer, Black Hat! Demencia then jumped at me, but I kicked her. I then remembered Black Hat's weakness, his monocle. I had to grab it and destroy it. As I tried, Demencia kept getting in the way. I then heard the Galactic Kids Next Door were on their way. I had to move.
. . .
Strange, why would the Galactic Kids Next Door return to their old ways and how did Black Hat return? Something was not right. I then looked and saw I was surrounded by the Beetledrones.
Singer: ... Car rides to Malibu
Strawberry ice cream
One spoon for two
And trading jackets
Laughing 'bout how small it looks on you
(Chorus: Ha-ha-ha-ha, ha-ha-ha-ha, ha-ha-ha-ha)
Watching reruns of Glee
Being annoying
Singing in harmony
I bet she's bragging
To all her friends, saying you're so unique, hmm
... So, when you gonna tell her
That we did that, too?
She thinks it's special
But it's all reused
That was our place, I found it first
I made the jokes you tell to her when she's with you
... Do you get déjà vu when she's with you?
Do you get déjà vu? (Chorus: Ah), hmm
Do you get déjà vu, huh?
... Do you call her
Almost say my name?
'Cause let's be honest
We kinda do sound the same
Another actress
I hate to think that I was just your type
... I'll bet that she knows Billy Joel
'Cause you played her "Uptown Girl"
You're singing it together
Now I bet you even tell her
How you love her
In between the chorus and the verse (Chorus: ooh) (Chorus: I love you)
... So, when you gonna tell her
That we did that, too?
She thinks it's special
But it's all reused
That was the show we talked about
Played you the song she's singing now when she's with you
... Do you get déjà vu when she's with you?
Do you get déjà vu? Oh
Do you get déjà vu?
... Strawberry ice cream in Malibu
Don't act like we didn't do that shit, too
You're trading jackets like we used to do
(Chorus: Yeah, everything is all reused)
Play her piano, but she doesn't know (Chorus: oh, oh)
That I was the one who taught you Billy Joel (Chorus: oh)
A different girl now, but there's nothing new
(Chorus: I know you get déjà vu!)
I then moved and then I was faced with Demongo, my evil counterpart, and the Shinobi. Could Demongo have summoned the others? No, I don't think that's it. Demongo then summons his essence warriors and I fought them. My counterpart and the Shinobi, both attack me. I had to run again.
. . .
I ran and then I was faced with the Ultrabots. Robotic warriors with fighting moves based on my teachers from my time. They attacked me and I had to fight them off. I then ran again.
. . .
I was then faced with the Princess and the Bounty Hunters. This is getting out of hand. They then attacked. Strange, I can see the Russian man, but the others are more subtle. The Gentleman's at least more polite. And the Princess is more of a strategist. Something isn't right. I then ran again.
. . .
I was then faced with the zombies. I ended up fight them off. How did they get all the way from the cemetery to here? I had to evade them as well.
. . .
I was then faced with the Minions of Set. Could someone have released them again? The last time I met them, my friends and I were not able to defeat them. This I had to avoid.
. . .
I was then faced with all of them. The Galactic Kids Next Door, Black Hat and Demencia, the Beetle Drones, Demongo, my evil counterpart, the Shinobi, the Ultrabots, the Princess and the Bounty Hunters, the Zombies, the Minions of Set, and even the Daughters of Aku. Wait, two of them have joined our side! Now I know that none of this is real. I then looked at the trees and now I know what is going on. I ended up fighting all of my previous foes. "Enough of this, Aku!"
The trees then all came together. As I thought, the trees were actually Aku, and he was using some sort of illusions.
"I was sure this would work," says Aku.
"Well, it failed," I said, "and now it is just you and me!"
"So be it," says Aku. He then turns into a dragon, and we fought. But as usual, I started slicing at him until he was reduced to a duck. "I will get you next time, Samurai!"
He then leaves. My communicator then started beeping. I answered. It was Jill. "I am fine," I said, "I just walked a path down Memory Lane."
