When a mysterious new threat puts the safety of the Tamagotchi planet and its inhabitants in danger, only Mametchi, Lovelitchi and the rest of their Tama-Friends can figure out what's going on and stop it before it's too late!

4. Chapter 2: Mysteries Of The Past

CHAPTER TWO: Mysteries Of The Past

In a mysterious house…

Mametchi: *Slowly waking up before looking around* W…where am I? And…*Yawn* …and who are you?

Mamemametchi: You can call me Mamemametchi, I found you unconscious in a nearby forest and brought you home for some rest—just thought you could use it.

Mametchi: …thanks…my…*Yawn*…my name's Mametchi…but I still need some time to rest…

Mamemametchi: …you just not a morning person?

Mametchi: …guess not…*Snaps awake upon remembering about his friends* Wait! I gotta ask you something! Have you seen my friends anywhere by any chance?

Mamemametchi: Hmm…I don't know who you're talking about…could you narrow it down a bit?

Mametchi: Well, one's orange and has one strand of curly hair, another is green and somewhat chubby, and there's also a white rabbit thing with clothes…

Mamemametchi: *Writing in notepad* Go on…

Mametchi: …as well as one that wears a black beret and has pastel purple overalls, one that looks like a giant apple but with a palish face, a yellow one with pink pom-poms on her head, one that wears fluffy clothing and has a Tama Pet on her head, and finally one with an orange skirt and mushroom hat…I think it's a hat?

Mamemametchi: (Jeez that's a lot…)…well…I'm sorry but…I haven't.

Mametchi: (Dang…)

Mamemametchi: …but I did find this playful cutie just outside my door when I brought you in! So I thought I'd let her stay too!

*The camera pans to show Nuritchi in a nearby bed*

Nuritchi: Hi!

Mametchi: …

Nuritchi: What?

Mametchi: Um…just…just…uh…just please stay close to me, ok? *Walks over to her*

Nuritchi: Okay! But why?

Mametchi: Well…it's, uh…kinda dangerous out there sometimes…and I want you to be safe…

Nuritchi: Dangerous? What's so dangerous outside?

Mametchi: Look…just…just don't run too far off!

Nuritchi: Ok…

Mamemametchi: Well…I assume you're going to head outside and look for your friends, right?

Mametchi: Yes, I can't let anything happen to them!

Mamemametchi: Wow…you're pretty selfless! I'm surprised to see that in people these days…especially after the economic collapse…

Mametchi: W-what?

Mamemametchi: Ever since the government rose our taxes in an effort to reduce their national debt, inflation has been on the rise…in fact, the situation has gotten so bad that they've begun to resort to slavery just to save a few bucks. It's been going on like this for a few months now, and we're almost out of the necessary tools to live ideally without resorting to illegal methods.

Mametchi: (What?! T-this doesn't make any sense!) B…but why would they do that?! I-I've never even seen that with our leaders…! Though maybe it's because I don't watch the news, but still…

Mamemametchi: What's a "news"?

Mametchi: A television network that displays worldwide coverage of recent events to keep people across the world updated on happenings. I've always been told to never actually put in on since they have a negativity bias though…

Mamemametchi: What's a television network?

Mametchi: (What?) An interconnected series of channels that can be broadcast on one's TV at home. Although I used it earlier to describe a live stream broadcast, I still think you'll probably understand what I'm getting at. If you're confused, you can always look it up on the internet!

Mamemametchi: (What the heck is any of that stuff?!) But what even is an internet?

Mametchi: (Slavery? Not even knowing what the internet is? Our leaders suddenly becoming jerks?! This can't be a coincidence…) Um…what year is it right now?

Mamemametchi: Oh, it's 1909. But still, what is an internet?

Mametchi: WHAT?! B-but I thought it was 2009…?!

Mamemametchi: Wait…are you from the future?

Mametchi: Well…apparently…but I gotta get going now, my friends may be in danger!

Mamemametchi: Don't you want something to eat first? I know we're running out of food and can't hold up much longer, but still…

Mametchi: No, you need it more than I do! And don't worry—I WILL find a way to help you somehow! Me and Nuritchi should be back soon and we'll think of a plan once that happens!

Mamemametchi: Ok! See you later! *Mametchi closes the door* (Man…I sure hope they'll be alright…those forests…if only I wasn't so stupid…) *Sniff*

Back in the present…

Violetchi: …yeah, that's basically how the adventure went.

Makiko: Did it include any moments where Memetchi's curl came undone?

Violetchi: …no. But even if it did, I not going to mention it.

Makiko: W-why not?!

Violetchi: You know, you're kind of a bully to her sometimes.

Makiko: Wh-what are you talking about?!

Violetchi: Well…don't you think Memetchi would be a little more friendly to you if you weren't constantly making fun of her hair? Don't you know how sensitive she is with that?

Makiko: B-but it's funny! S-she sounds hilarious when she's tickled off!

Violetchi: *Slaps her*

Makiko: OW! What the heck is wrong with you?!

Violetchi: How would you like it if you were the one being annoyed?

Makiko: Why did you hit me?!

Violetchi: To prove my point—even speech can be more harmful than you might expect. You know that saying "Sticks and stones may break my bones, but words will never hurt me"? I don't think whoever came up with that quote was really an expert in mental health academics.

Makiko: But…but what this have to do with a "motivational" quote?

Violetchi: Look, all I'm asking is to just…please, be a little nicer to her.

Makiko: (Great…)…okay…fine…I'll try…

Violetchi: I know you can do it!

Makiko: Oh? Yes! I can! Thanks for the reminder! I just know for a fact that I'll be so much better at being the nicest girl to ever exist than dweebs like you! Ciao! *Singing and skipping away*

Violetchi: (Never mind…)

Back in the past…

Mametchi: *Calling the names of his friends repeatedly* Say here if you can hear me!

Nuritchi: Here!

Mametchi: Huh? Where are you? I can hear you on top of me but I don't see anyone!

Nuritchi: It's Nuritchi!

Mametchi: …I meant someone that isn't near us…

Nuritchi: Oh…hey! Maybe if we split up, we'll be able to find your friends more easily!

Mametchi: Look…t-this place isn't safe! I can't just leave you alone here in the middle of nowhere!

Nuritchi: *Climbing one of the "trees"* Or maybe we'll get a better view up there!

Mametchi: P-please stop! Heaven knows what that thing's gonna do!

Nuritchi: WAH!

Mametchi: (Shoot…I forgot about her filters…) S-sorry…I meant "who knows"…

Nuritchi: Nuritchi's sure it's only a plant! Also, she loves climbing things! Because it makes her feel tiny and being tiny means the world is bigger! And a bigger world means more adventure!

Mametchi: (Maybe I'm being too careful after the near-drowning incident…?)…ok…fine, I'll join you…*Jumps on "tree"* Just don't stray too far, okay?

Nuritchi: Got it! *Climbs up rather quickly without stumbling*

Mametchi: (How is she so fast?!) *Stumbles a bit but regains grip* Jeez!…uh, I mean Jimmys…How often do you do this?

Nuritchi: Every day! In fact, it seems to get easier with every instance!

Mametchi: (So it's practice…does that mean I'm not terrible?)

Nuritchi: Look! Nuritchi sees something over there!

Mametchi: Huh?

Nuritchi: It looks like a pink cell phone! Nuritchi hopes we can return it to its owner…right? Mr. Yellow?

Mametchi: (Is that my new nickname…?) Ok.

Near the phone…

Nuritchi: *Dialing random numbers* Nuritchi can't get any reception.

Mametchi: (Didn't we get warped back 100 years in the past? Cell phones couldn't have existed yet…)…hey, can I borrow this?

Nuritchi: Sure! But why?

Mametchi: I have this feeling that it belongs to one of my friends…

Nuritchi: Okay! You know your friends better than Nuritchi does!

Phone: No! Telelin doesn't want to go back yet!

Mametchi: AHH! *Drops phone before Nuritchi catches it* T-talking phone?! How hard did I hit my head back at that chase…?

Telelin: You're okay, Mametchi! Telelin's always been able to talk! Well, uh…or at least today she is…

Mametchi: But I don't under—w-w-wait hold on—how do you know my name?!

Telelin: Telelin's a phone! And anything Lovelin puts in her database is stuff she remembers! Like all of your friends and your current quest! Telelin's been out here trying to help you out in whatever way she can but doesn't know how to find Tama-Hearts…

Mametchi: Well…we could use some help right now, actually…

Telelin: What is it?

Mametchi: You see…I…well I met this guy in a vacant house somewhere around here and he said he was running out of food and money to survive…

Nuritchi: Nuritchi also noticed that he kept subconsciously looking outdoors at the tree thingies…like he seemed guilty about them being there…

Mametchi: Wow…you spot stuff I completely miss…anyway, he says that this happened because this timeline's economy has fallen apart. He also notes that this crisis has been going for a few months and that it's caused by the government trying to reduce their national debt by raising taxes and resorting to slavery. All of this has led to hyperinflation in this time period; causing the economic crisis in the long run…

Nuritchi: Wait…what do you mean by "this time period"?

Telelin: Telelin's confused…

Mametchi: I don't know how, but back at the Shinjitsu Shrine we somehow got warped 100 years in the past. I know this because when I asked him about things such as the news and internet, he was confused.

Nuritchi: Nuritchi's parents always had parental locks on those things, but she never understood why…

Mametchi: …but we need to regroup before we can try and tackle that. Have you by any chance at least seen the chosen ones?

Telelin: Well, she did wake up next to them! Only problem is she doesn't know where they actually are at the moment or which way she came…

Mametchi: GAH!

Nuritchi: It's ok! Remember the technique we did to find Ms. Phone, Mr. Yellow?

Telelin: Those aren't our real names…

Mametchi: I think she prefers to refer to us as nicknames, actually…

Telelin: (Crud…)

Back in the present…

Chamametchi: Man…Ha…Hapihapitchi?

Hapihapitchi: What-awo?

Chamametchi: I just…I…I really miss big brother…

Hapihapitchi: So does Hapihapitchi-awo…

Chamametchi: *Pulls out pink gemstones*…I mean…he's really brave to take on whatever he's currently up against…and bloodthirsty pirates…but I can't stop worrying about him! What if *Sniff* he's up against something that he can't fight back against?! What if he's stranded out there…alone and *Sniff* hungry with no one to help him?! What if something happens to him?! *Sobbing*

Hapihapitchi: Hapihapitchi understands…but it's Mametchi-awo! He…um…*Flashbacks of moments where Mametchi and/or his friends are in danger*…well…Hapihapitchi's sure that he can handle anything-awo! (She'll only get more upset if Hapihapitchi's too honest with her-awo…)…what are you doing-awo?

Chamametchi: *Painting on some old pillows* I can't take this anymore—I will find him or get myself killed trying!

Hapihapitchi: Are you sure this is a good idea-awo?!

Chamametchi: As long as we return by tomorrow morning they shouldn't notice that we've left!

Hapihapitchi: But—*Notices Chamametchi dialing up Imotchi's house*…oh no-awo…

Chamametchi: Hello?

Imotchi: Chamametchi…*Yawn*…it's getting late out…shouldn't we be asleep by now?

Chamametchi: But what about big brother? Mametchi?

Imotchi: I'm sure they'll be fine! The only person I'm really worried about is my sister Memetchi, which is odd considering I usually don't like her…

Chamametchi: B-but I can't *Sniff* leave big brother out there! I'm going to look for him!

Imotchi: Please don't! Your parents are going to kill you considering that it's 20:30!

Chamametchi: Maybe, but I've already prepared for that by painting over some old pillows! Could you please do the same and join me?

Imotchi: NO. We are waiting until tomorrow.

Chamametchi: Well, I'm going! I don't care what you say! Bye! *Hangs up*

Imotchi: For Pete's sake…*Grabs old pillow and draws over it before using a bedsheet as a rope* (I have to find and stop her!)

*The camera pans to a lawn with the Spacy Brothers*

Akaspetchi: Um…big brother…can we go home and back to bed now?

Spacytchi: No one goes home tonight! Because today is the day we pull out the big guns and do something truly evil to gain everyone's attention! How else will we complete our quest for world domination?

Akaspetchi: But…how exactly are we going to make any progress if this supposed "plan" is doing nothing but stand on this guy's lawn literally just because there's a sign telling us not to? *Camera pans to show a nearby sign saying "Please keep off the grass"*

Spacytchi: It'll be all worth it in the end! People will be so scared of us that they'll have no choice but to call us the Lawn-standers and obey our every request!

Akaspetchi: Oh! Lawn-standers? I get chills up my spine just thinking about it!

Spacytchi: Yeah, I spent a total of 2 seconds coming up with that fearsome name!

Akaspetchi: Boss, you're a genius! Hey, have you seen two aliens running around here lately?

Spacytchi: No, and I don't think I ever will see any.

Akaspetchi: Why not?

Spacytchi: Aliens don't exist, that entire rumor is likely just a government conspiracy to cover up planned unspeakable actions in the future.

Akaspetchi and Pipospetchi: *Stare*

Akaspetchi: …what the heck are you talking about?

Spacytchi: It's all a lie. This "optimism" stuff is just mindless propaganda to politically manipulate naive fools into contributing to—

Akaspetchi: *Covers Spacytchi's mouth* Ok seriously, tone the nihilism down a notch. Whatever's on your mind is not as common as you think. You've just been looking on the wrong side of everything!

Spacytchi: That's what they want you to think…*Sees couple innocently holding hands* I know what's really going on behind closed doors because I do my research on the internet.

Akaspetchi: (Someone's been spending too much time on Twitter…)

Back in the past…

Melodytchi: Nani?! You lost your phone?!

Lovelitchi: Yeah…but the thing is I thought I had it with me…

Melodytchi: Well…I just hope you can find it…but I have an idea that involves process elimination if you're interested!

Lovelitchi: Hm?

Melodytchi: Well, the phone couldn't have just gotten up and walked away, right?

*Brief cut to Mametchi's group*

Mametchi: Y-you can also walk?

Telelin: Well, duh! It's how Telelin got separated—she got up and walked away hoping to find something!

Lovelitchi: …yeah you're probably right…

Melodytchi: This idea may also be helpful in escaping this place and regrouping with everyone! Wanna see it?

Lovelitchi: Sure! If it helps us, I'll take anything!

Melodytchi: Tah-dah! *Pulls out paint bucket and brush*

Lovelitchi: …um…uh…

Melodytchi: Huh? What's wrong?

Lovelitchi: …a-are you sure that is even legal?

Melodytchi: The ground is different from someone's house, so I think it should be!

Lovelitchi: I'm really sorry, but I can't afford to take any risks…

Melodytchi: Then how about another idea? *Pulls out Melody Violin* There's no way our friends won't recognize us with this!

Lovelitchi: Wow—you have the best of ideas, Melodytchi!

Melodytchi: …I…I do?

Lovelitchi: Yeah! It's not gonna attract my phone but I prefer to lose that over my friends!

Melodytchi: …I…a…ari…*Sniffs a bit before crying out of happiness* ARIGATO!

Lovelitchi: (How is one complement enough to bring her tears of joy? Should I…maybe try this with other people? It makes me so happy to see them happy…!)

Someplace else…

Uwasatchi: Oh my head is spinning-dawasa…*Gets up and notices that her friends are missing* HUH?! WHERE'D MY FRIENDS GO-DAWASA?!

Pompomtchi: I'm not sure, but I know we can find them!

Uwasatchi: Thank goodness…I'm so glad that at least one of us are still—*Realizes who was talking to her*…oh no-dawasa…

Pompomtchi: Let's go! Let's go! Let's find our friends!

Uwasatchi: Please! Please stop-dawasa!

Pompomtchi: I-I'm only trying to encourage you…

Uwasatchi: Then please stop—it's getting on my nerves-dawasa!

Pompomtchi: …are you sure you don't want any support?

Uwasatchi: For the last time, YES-DAWASA!

Pompomtchi: …ok…*Puts pom-poms away*

Uwasatchi: (Oh no…I don't even like this girl yet for some reason I can't stand seeing her look so upset-dawasa…)

Memetchi: *Trying to solve a Rubix Cube before pausing to talk to Kuchipatchi* Kuchipatchi…we've been in the same spot for about 4 hours now…I don't think you'll be biting into that large plant anytime soon.

Kuchipatchi: *Attempting to bite into one of the "trees"* It's only a few more seconds-datchi!

Memetchi: You've used that response at least a dozen times in those past 4 hours!

Kuchipatchi: I'm sure I'll get it eventually-datchi!

Memetchi: Jeez…*Goes back to tinkering with the Rubix Cube*

Ringotchi: I still don't understand where the heck we are…or why the chosen ones seem to have betrayed us!

Watawatatchi: W-what? T-t-they wouldn't do that…! A…aren't they…like…o-our friends?

Ringotchi: What friends? I don't see anyone around here but us!

Watawatatchi: …p…please…please calm down…I…I'm sure we can find them…

Ringotchi: (Wait…tell me I'm not making her upset…)…ok! I…I'm sorry if what I said upset you earlier…

*Quick cut to Mamemametchi's house*

Mamemametchi: *Looking out the window* (It's getting dark out…and Mametchi and Nuritchi still haven't returned…darn it me…*Camera pans on an axe*…why did you have to forget to at least give them this? The WeedKiller…?)

Mametchi: Uh…It's getting kinda dark out…don't you think we should hurry?

Nuritchi: What's so bad about the dark? It's a great opportunity for hide and seek with friends! *Looks around a bit* Oh! There you are! Nuritchi just thought she lost you for a second—hey! That demonstrates her point perfectly!

Mametchi: U-um…everyone…

Nuritchi and Telelin: Huh?

Mametchi: You might wanna look at this…*Camera pans to show a skeleton near where Mametchi and his friends are standing*…we really need to find our friends and get out of here while we still can.

Telelin: S-skeletons?! T-Telelin knew it…t-t-this forest is haunted…

Nuritchi: What's so scary? It's only a skeleton! *Turns to skeleton* Hello! This is Nuritchi and she wants to be your friend! What's your name?…why aren't you answering?

Mametchi: U-uh…I don't know maybe he's just sleeping? (Nuritchi wouldn't understand the truth…)

Nuritchi: Huh…oh well, everyone needs their beauty sleep eventually!…wait, what's that music?

Mametchi: …music? *Listens for a bit* (It faintly sounds like…Every Lovely?)…I think I know who's playing that! Follow me! *Follows the music along with Nuritchi*

Telelin: W-wait! Telelin's legs aren't as long as yours!

Mametchi: *Rushes back and scoops her up*

*The 3 run through the forest until they hear screaming noises*

Mametchi: W-what happened?!

Nuritchi: Those screams didn't sound happy…and why'd the music stop?

Mametchi: (Oh dear…)

Telelin: AHH! W-WHAT HAPPENED?! *Pointing towards 2 nearby skeletons*

Mametchi: NO! *Rushes towards them* No no no…this isn't real…!

Nuritchi: Nuritchi's starting to get worried…what's going on?!

Mametchi: *In tears*…no…this can't be happening…! *Suddenly stops*…wait…hold on a second…

Nuritchi and Telelin: W-what?

Mametchi: They're not wearing any Kizuna clothing! *Feels skeletons*…and on top of that, these bodies have rotted away in skeletons…ones that are cold to the touch…no, these can't be our friends—they haven't been deceased long enough to be like this!

Nuritchi: B-b…but then where are they?

Telelin: Probably taken away by the forest ghosts and put into one of their slaughterhouses for feasting!

Nuritchi: A what house?

*Nearby vines begin to move in the background as the group is talking*

Mametchi: N-n-no—I-it's possible that they might still be alive! And I really hope they are…oh no…

Nuritchi and Telelin: What?

Mametchi: I just remembered—there were plenty more of us than just me, Lovelitchi and Melodytchi!

Nuritchi: Who are those two?

Mametchi: Those are the names of the chosen ones, actually!

Telelin: Telelin has photos of all of Lovelitchi's friends if you need to get caught up! Also, Lovelitchi and Lovelin are actually the same person!

Mametchi: Don't—*Sigh*…it's already been spilled…

Telelin: S-sorry! Telelin unfortunately forgot…

Nuritchi: Huh…Nuritchi always wondered why those two looked the same to one another…

Mametchi: It's fine…just…just try not to tell anyone else about it, alright? There's a reason why she's keeping it a secret…

*Birds and various other animals begin moving across the screen looking panicked in the background as the vines are now even closer and something enormous rises and begins to surround them*

Telelin: Telelin understands! *Turns to Nuritchi* Now, welcome to the party! Here are all our friends: Lovelitchi, Melodytchi, Mametchi, Memetchi, Kuchipatchi, Pompomtchi, Uwasatchi, Ringotchi and Watawatatchi! Oh, and that's only the ones who came with us! Not including you and Telelin!

Nuritchi: My beans, you have a lot! And they all look adorable and kind too! Hey, when we get back, could Nuritchi show you her friend circle? She's got a lot and would love new additions!

Mametchi: Well we are in a bit of a hurry but sure! I don't mind! But shouldn't we get back to what we were doing and look for our friends first?

Telelin: Telelin was just about to say that!

Nuritchi: Oh…whoops! Maybe it could be Nuritchi's energy…? It does distract her from what she's supposed to be doing sometimes…hey, have you noticed that the ground around us seems to be of a higher elevation?

Mametchi: It is? *Looks at it* That's strange…it wasn't like that when we first got here…and the slope also seems to be getting higher!…not to mention the air feels really heavy all of a sudden…*Finally notices the enormous thing closing above them while the nearby "trees" begin to act like teeth* What the—?! MOVE! *Grabs Telelin and Nuritchi's arm but they quickly fall due to the entire environment falling apart before getting sucked in along with several random animals*

Back in the present…

Chamametchi: *Walking down the streets with Hapihapitchi while repeatedly calling Mametchi's name*

Imotchi: What are you doing?!

Hapihapitchi: Uh…it was her idea-awo!

Chamametchi: Then why did you—

Imotchi: Put a pin in it! J-just…are you two insane?! You can't just sneak out of your house in the middle of the night and scream someone's name over and over again!

Chamametchi: B-but we had no choice! What—*Sniff*…what about big brother?!

Imotchi: What about our parents?! If they catch us out here, we're dead!

Chamametchi: *Sniff* But…but I want big brother back!

Imotchi: I do too, but now's not the time to be running off to who knows where! That goes for you too, Hapihapitchi! Coming up with an idea and running through with it are two completely different things!

Hapihapitchi: Wha—?! *Sigh*…Chamametchi…as much as Hapihapitchi hates to admit it, we should probably turn around-awo…

Chamametchi: NO! I'M NOT GOING HOME UNTIL WE FIND BIG BROTHER! *Jumping up and down repeatedly* I'M NOT I'M NOT I'M NOT I'M NOT I'M—

Angry voice: GO TO BED!

*The trio are startled and briefly glance at each other*

Imotchi: S-seriously, you two, please, let's go!

Chamametchi: I said no! I'm not going home until we finish what we started, and there's nothing out there that would make me! *Gets tapped on before the camera pans out to reveal Mamametchi and Papamametchi standing behind them looking angry* U-uh…hello…?…n-nice weather we're having…right?

Hapihapitchi: (Here it comes-awo…)

Imotchi: *Sigh*…this is exactly what I tried to warn you about, but of course you didn't listen…

Meanwhile back at the lawn…

Akaspetchi: Hey boss, I forgot to tell you this earlier but I think a 4 year-old girl in pajamas climbed out of Mametchi's house a few minutes ago!

Spacytchi: So?

Akaspetchi: We could try and raid her drawer if we're really feeling—

Spacytchi: NO. We are NOT doing that. Ever.

Pipospetchi: #*$%+ *Runs up and starts beating up Akaspetchi in a cartoon cloud of violence*

Akaspetchi: GAH!

Spacytchi: Huh, a fight on the streets. FINALLY some entertainment! *Realizes who is fighting after a few seconds* Wait wait wait stop!

Akaspetchi: I-I'm sorry! I didn't know she was your Tama-Friend! Or…uh…whatever it is that you said!

Spacytchi: …huh? What are you talking about? I don't know her.

Akaspetchi: Not your friend, Pipo's!

Pipospetchi: #)$"#

Spacytchi: Well, I suppose four is better than three. So if you want to make some allies for our mission then by all means do—why are you guys all red?

*Both Akaspetchi and Pipospetchi are covered in rashes*

Akaspetchi: Um, hello? It's my skin color, boss. Pipospetchi on the other hand though…I'm…I'm not…why am I so itchy all of a sudden?! *Scratching in random locations while saying ow repeatedly*

Spacytchi: Huh…you know, now that I think about my legs feel really itchy too…*Scratching them while saying ow repeatedly*…wait, what's that?

Akaspetchi: What's what?

Spacytchi: There's tiny print under this sign…"Please keep off the grass…*Pans to tiny print layer*…because it has recently been exposed to high amounts of plant fertilizer. Contact with fertilizer, especially large quantities, can lead to skin rashes, burning sensations, itchiness, and other forms of skin damage. If you show any signs of these symptoms, contact your local doctor and get assistance. And most important of all, stay calm and do not panic." Uh…don't worry! Just…just remain calm and we'll be fine.

*The Spacy brothers a few seconds later then proceed to scream and run around in circles*

Back in the past…

*Mametchi and Telelin are screaming while falling as they look for something to grab onto as Nuritchi is having fun*

Nuritchi: Wow! How far does this hole go?

Mametchi: Do you see anything to grab onto?!

*The trio then briefly yelp in pain upon landing on something*

Mametchi: Ow…this thing feels slimy…

Telelin: How do we get back up there?

Mametchi: Hmm…

*The platform they're standing on begins to shake and easily knock them off as Mametchi notices a large uvula near one end*

Mametchi: It was a tongue…

*The group then fall down more until eventually ending up in an area surrounded by debris and acid*

Mametchi: Again…ow…

Nuritchi: What's this stuff? *Lifts her foot near the acid*

Mametchi: Don't touch that! I'm pretty sure that's stomach acids…

Lovelitchi: So you've been eaten too?

Mametchi: Girls! *Hugs* I'm so glad you're safe…well, at least sort of anyway…

Nuritchi: Uh…why are they wearing different clothes than in their pictures?

Mametchi: Oh…well they're chosen heroes but that's not important right now…

Telelin: LOVELITCHI! MELODYTCHI!

Lovelitchi: Wait…is my phone…talking?!

Telelin: Yep! Don't ask how, but Telelin can now speak!

Lovelitchi: Well…I'm happy to see you again! *Hugs Telelin and puts her away* Even if you're now somehow sentient…but…wh…what do we do now that monsters this ginormous exist?! What's gonna happen to our friends and families?!

Melodytchi: We tried clinging onto the uvula in a desperate attempt to save ourselves but that thing was too gigantic…so much so that even getting a grip on it was impossible! *Brief flashback footage shows Lovelitchi and Melodytchi falling onto the creature's uvula in an attempt to escape but the uvula's sheer size makes the duo look microscopic by comparison* In fact, we were so tiny compared to that thing that I don't even think the monster felt it!

Mametchi: Well…I do have good news and bad news…

Lovelitchi and Melodytchi: Hm?

Mametchi: The good news is that we've been warped 100 years in the past; meaning monsters like these should be extinct in our timeline!

Lovelitchi: That's both good and bad news…

Mametchi: Yeah…the bad news is that we've been warped 100 years in the past; meaning that we're stuck in the wrong time period until we can find a way back home…

Melodytchi: Kuso…

Mametchi: By the way, were you with anyone else when this happened?

Lovelitchi: No…we tried to regroup with everyone else by playing Every Lovely earlier but it didn't work…

Mametchi: (Crud…)…well either way, I don't want to get separated again. So I want everyone to stick together for a while and never separate unless we have to. Okay?

Lovelitchi: That's probably for the best honestly…

Back in the present…

*Chamametchi and the others are being driven home by Mamametchi and Papamametchi*

Papamametchi: Kids, we are very disappointed by your decision.

Chamametchi: *Sniff* I know…

Mamametchi: Don't you know it's dangerous out there? Especially this late at night? Even worse, you put Imotchi in danger!

Imotchi: I-I was only trying to stop them! B-but they wouldn't listen!

Papamametchi: Then let us handle it—we're the parents here, not you.

Chamametchi: *Sniff* I…*Sniff*…I…I'M SORRY! I JUST WANTED MY BROTHER BACK BECAUSE HE WAS GONE FOR SUCH A LONG TIME AND I DON'T KNOW WHERE HE IS! I…I snuck out because…BECAUSE I DIDN'T KNOW WHAT TO DO AND NOW I BROKE YOUR TRUST AND IT'S ALL MY FAULT! I'M SORRY! *Begins sobbing as the parents glance at each other with concerned looks* Please…g-go ahead and spank me already…that's what a worthless poophead like me deserves after this…

Papamametchi: You are NOT a poophead.

Mamametchi: It's not that big of a deal! We just don't want anything bad happening to you!…look…Mametchi is older and has more experience, not to mention a larger friend circle that he went with. If you were worried about his safety, why didn't you come and ask us for help?

Chamametchi: …

Mamametchi: There's nothing wrong with that—in fact, I doubt your brother would be able to do the things he could just on his own.

Chamametchi: B-but daddy said that he never needed help when he went adventuring in his days!

Papamametchi: (Oh crud…what've I done?!) Well…maybe, but that doesn't mean you should go alone or at night. No matter how hard we try, we can't be 100% perfect role models—we are people too and there are some things we probably did that shouldn't be mimicked by future generations.

Mamametchi: Your dad's right—we make mistakes all the time and despite our best efforts, there are still moments that slip through the cracks and we can only hope that they aren't too detrimental…but tell you what—how about we go and search for your brother tomorrow morning together? It's much safer that way.

Chamametchi: O…ok…WAIT DADDY STOP THE CAR!

Papamametchi: *Slams the brakes* What?

Chamametchi: Phew…there were some guys running in circles across the street. Hey! They also look similar to my classmates! See?

*The camera pans out to show that the Spacy brothers are still screaming and running in circles in the exact same spot*

Back in the past…

Mametchi: …and that's why we need to stay here and help them before we can return to our timeline!

Lovelitchi: Yeah…but first we need to get out of here…how do we do that?

Kizunatchi: Don't you have any weapons to fight back with-nanoja?

Group: AH!

Melodytchi: W-who said that?!

Kizunatchi: Kizunatchi did-nanoja! Look inside your Profys-nanoja!

Lovelitchi and Melodytchi: H-huh?

Kizunatchi: Kizunatchi's been tasked with helping the chosen ones with their quest! But…*Pops out of one of the Profys*…she's wondering where the heck we currently—

Nuritchi: WAH!

Mametchi: Ok…I hate to admit this Nuritchi, but not everyone speaks under the same vocabulary as you…

Kizunatchi: What did Kizunatchi do-nanoja?

Mametchi: (We're meeting a lot of third-person speakers this chapter…)…you said "heck"…

Nuritchi: Stop!

Kizunatchi: …really-nanoja?

Mametchi: Let's not get too hostile…

Kizunatchi: That's only a G-rated version of something and she still gets upset-nanoja?! Kizunatchi knows and will say real curse words if you—

Mametchi: *Covers Kizunatchi's mouth* No no no! Please, not in front of her…or the audience! Or most importantly the censors…

Kizunatchi: What censors-nanoja?

Mametchi: N-nothing!

Nuritchi: Why are you so mean all of a sudden?

Lovelitchi: O-ok calm down everyone! How about we change the subject…? Because…no, in the case of the weapons department, we lost all of ours…

Kizunatchi: *Facepalms* Oh for the love of…you're the heroes and don't even have a mythical sword of some sort? Or anything-nanoja?!

Lovelitchi: We don't like to use violence unless absolutely necessary…

Mametchi: Oh! Thanks for reminding me—I forgot to make us new ones after the old ones exploded! I guess I just wanted to reach the Shinjitsu Shrine more than anything else…

Kizunatchi: …okay but…y-you didn't try talking to the shrine, right-nanoja?!

Lovelitchi: Um…why?

Kizunatchi: Don't tell Kizunatchi you did…that thing speaks a language only us Kizuna can understand-nanoja! Anyone else it sends back to a random time period-nanoja!

*Everyone stares at her*

Kizunatchi: Kizunatchi doesn't believe it-nanoja…*Digs several small graves and goes inside one* This is the end-nanoja…

Mametchi: N-no it isn't! We can still get out of this! Come on!

*Kizunatchi doesn't leave*

Mametchi: We might be here for a while.

Everyone: GAH!

Uwasatchi: *Looking around at her surroundings* Why…why must creatures this large exist-dawasa…?! Wh…what's gonna happen to my friends?! *Sniff* What's gonna happen to my family?! WHAT'S GONNA HAPPEN TO THIS WORLD-DAWASA?! *Curls into fetal position in tears* This entire planet's too small for this monster-dawasa…pretty soon everyone we know's gonna be trapped inside this thing with no way to break out-dawasa…*Snaps and starts hitting the wall to no avail* COME ON! LET! US! OUT-DAWASA! YOU CAN'T…TAKE…AWAY…MY…*Gives up and falls to the floor sobbing* What do we do-dawasa…can't climb it…can't fight it…can't even tell where we're going because it's so massive-dawasa…

Pompomtchi: *Watching Uwasatchi while also in tears*

Uwasatchi: If…if only we were a little bigger-dawasa…at least enough for it to feel us…but…I just need a little help-dawasa…

Pompomtchi: (No…please…is…is this really the end?! It can't be…!)

*Cut to lungs*

Ringotchi: B-but how?! I-it's so huge that choking it is impossible! L-look at these airways! *Camera pans back to show the duo standing in the creature's airway pipes which are so enormous that Ringotchi and Watawatatchi already look microscopic by comparison before even half of its total width can be displayed* E-every breath it takes is a hurricane waiting to happen at this size!

Watawatatchi: I…I'm sure there's a way…!

Ringotchi: H-how…how…how do we…*Sobbing* I…I don't see what the point of going on is…! W-we've been separated…hopelessly lost and…and eaten by some kind of sand worm too big to fight back against!

*Brief cut to Mametchi's area*

Mametchi: Get out of that self-made grave! We need to go!

Kizunatchi: We're already toast-nanoja…

Mametchi: Well, you're not making our odds of survival any better by sitting there and doing nothing!

*Cut back to Uwasatchi and Pompomtchi*

Pompomtchi: …no!

Uwasatchi: …huh…?

Pompomtchi: No! We can not and WILL NOT go down without a fight! *Grabs pom-poms*

Uwasatchi: Y-you're not gonna start singing aren't you-dawasa?

Pompomtchi: I will if we keep sitting here and doing nothing! What would the Kizuna Heroes have to say about this?! For crying out loud—we stepped up to help Mametchi and the chosen ones when they were injured! We survived obstacles in other places that looked impossible to bypass! And while I'm at it, we still haven't found any of the others! I don't know if they're still alive or not, but I'm still fighting for what we have left and I don't care who or what tries to stop us! Not even monsters from Hell that could destroy the entire planet!

Uwasatchi: B…but then what do we do-dawasa?!

Pompomtchi: If we are microscopic compared to this thing, why don't we try something that only microscopic organisms could do to a larger creature?

Uwasatchi: Like…like what-dawasa?!

*The duo hear Memetchi and Kuchipatchi laughing from the walls before the sound quickly disappears*

Memetchi: *Riding a blood cell* Don't know when we're blowing this joint, but I don't mind the opportunity to kick your butt in this race!

Kuchipatchi: Um, I think you mean ME kicking YOUR butt-datchi!

Pompomtchi: Like there! *Squeezes through small opening with Uwasatchi* We gotta take over the bloodstream and make it sick! Like germs!

Uwasatchi: N-no way-dawasa! There are white blood cells in there that strongly outnumber us-dawasa! Also, we don't even have anything to fight back with-dawasa!

Pompomtchi: Hmm…*More blood cells pass by with the rest of the group onboard*

Lovelitchi: Uwasatchi! And Pompomtchi!

Melodytchi: We have found Memetchi and Kuchipatchi!

Memetchi: And Ringotchi and Watawatatchi!

Mametchi: Follow us to the lungs!

Memetchi: But could we finish our race first please…?

Uwasatchi: They're…they're okay-dawasa?! E-everyone's still alive-dawasa?!

Pompomtchi: I…I knew it! I knew they would find a way! W-what's wrong?

Uwasatchi: *Crying in joy* I…I'm just happy everyone's safe-dawasa…

Pompomtchi: Alright—who's ready to not be lunch?

Uwasatchi: Well…I don't know what we're doing but I'm okay with anything that allows us to live-dawasa!

Mamemametchi: (No…how are they not back yet?! Did they really…no…the beast…the monster lurking under those trees…the thing that spits out skeletons from its prey…no! *Grabs WeedKiller axe* I have to help them! I can't allow that thing to take away any more lives!)

Mametchi: Look—all this Cilia…that stuff serves as a filter for the lungs! If we can remove enough of it, we might just be able to poison this creature's air supply and kill it!

Watawatatchi: Bu…but…

Ringotchi: I'm sorry…but as much as I hate to admit it, communication isn't always the answer…

Mametchi: Yeah…we're not gonna be able to get out of this by asking the monster to spit us out…it doesn't work that way…

Nuritchi: Uh…what's going on here?

Memetchi: Just grab one of these things and pull it!

Nuritchi: W…why?

Memetchi: Just do it!

Nuritchi: Ok…

Uwasatchi: G-got one-dawasa! And…Pompomtchi-dawasa…

Pompomtchi: What?

Uwasatchi: This is going to sound weird coming from me, but…I need you to cheer us on as much as you can-dawasa!

Pompomtchi: W-what?!

Uwasatchi: We need you-dawasa…! Don't hold back-dawasa!

Mamemametchi: LET THEM GO! *Runs and violently swings axe at "tree"* LEAVE MY FRIENDS ALONE! *Hacks at same spot repeatedly*

Pompomtchi: Keep pulling! Keep pulling! Let's bail this joint!

*The group manage to yank out one Cilia with lots of green liquid spilling from the place it was standing in*

Watawatatchi: AH!

Nuritchi: W-what is that?!

Mametchi: J-just don't think about it—we need to escape! *Grabs another piece of Cilia* C-come on! We can do it!

Watawatatchi: (I'm never gonna be able to remove that image from my brain…or the next ones…)

Mamemametchi: DIE! DIE YOU OVERGROWN DISGRACE! *Continues to hack at same spot but with even more force until he eventually reaches a vain and green liquid sprays out with the monster screaming in pain*

Mametchi: Ow…just ignore the loud noises! We already removed 5 Cilia!

Pompomtchi: Don't stop! Don't stop! We can do it!

Kuchipatchi: This is going to slow-datchi…*Munches on one and quickly removes it* Tastes like chicken-datchi!

Memetchi: (A use for Kuchipatchi's insane appetite?!) Kuchipatchi! Eat as much of this as you can! And don't stop!

Kuchipatchi: Finally I can eat it-datchi! *Munches up several Cilia*

Mamemametchi: Almost…there! *Finally chops off one of the "trees" and rushes to the next one while dodging various vines*

Mametchi: Ow! Again…! K-keep it up! It's working!

Kuchipatchi: There's more this way-datchi!

Mametchi: We still got this one to remove! You go and help yourself as much as you can!

Kuchipatchi: Got it-datchi!

Mamemametchi: *Hacking "tree" while more green liquid starts spraying every hit*

Mametchi: Keep going! It's getting weaker!

Memetchi: Come on! Let's clear up those other pipes!

Mamemametchi: *Dodging vines* (Jeez…now I remember why I didn't do this a few months ago…) *Gets grabbed by one and loses the WeedKiller which falls into the monster's mouth* (No!) *Tries to break free but is unable to before the monster randomly screams in pain and drops him* Huh?! Have my friends possibly been…whatever you're doing to that thing, don't stop!

Mametchi: We almost rendered an entire lung unusable! Keep pulling!

Mamemametchi: *As the monster is now no longer able to do anything other than cough and scream* You almost got him! Don't stop!

Mametchi: We're on the second lung! We can do it!

Mamemametchi: You can do it! Keep going!

Mametchi: You're doing great! Don't give up!

Mamemametchi: *As the monster falls over* Just a little more! Don't stop!

Mametchi: We almost removed all of them! Don't stop!

Mamemametchi: Finish it!

Mametchi: Last one! *Pulls last Cilia out causing the monster to scream and lose consciousness before he and all of his friends emerge from the creature's mouth a few seconds later*

Mamemametchi: Mametchi! Nuritchi! THANK YOU! *Runs up and hugs them* I can't tell you how much I wanted that thing removed…wait, who are all of those people around you?

Mametchi: They're all of my friends! The ones that I was looking for! And frankly…I wasn't sure how we were going to pull this one off…and I don't think we ever would've without them.

Uwasatchi: I…I still can't believe it-dawasa…

Mametchi: Oh yeah…we've been warped 100 years in the past, so you don't have to worry about these types of monsters attacking our families or friends.

Ringotchi: Oh thank goodness…wait, 100 years in the past?!

Uwasatchi: Houston, we have a problem-dawasa…

Mametchi: N-no, I'm sure there's a way back! We just need to help him first!

Mamemametchi: Why? You already helped me out enough by destroying that monster…and who's this "Houston" you just brought up?

Mametchi: Uh…don't worry too much about it! Anyway, we still have a money issue to resolve and like I promised, I will do everything I can to help you out in that regard and there's nothing in the world that will change it! Not even giant plant monsters!

Mamemametchi: *Sniff* You…you really don't have to do that…

Lovelitchi: It's not because we have to…well, ok maybe it kinda is by a little bit but never mind that…it's because we want to!

Mamemametchi: *Starts tearing up in joy*…I…I don't understand…I really appreciate the gesture but…why are you being…just…so nice to me…?

Mametchi: Well…really no special reason…actually…

Mamemametchi: …

Kizunatchi: Look! A Tama Heart-nanoja!

Mamemametchi: A what?

Lovelitchi: Really? You can see Tama Hearts too?

Kizunatchi: Well, duh! Kizunatchi's part of the Kizuna-nanoja!

Lovelitchi: Let's get it! *Pulls out Tama Profy along with Melodytchi*

Mamemametchi: I don't see anything!

Mametchi: Oh…only the chosen ones and members of the Kizuna can. Not sure why though…

Mysterious Voice: *After Lovelitchi and Melodytchi get the Tama Heart* Well done, young ones…

Mametchi: W-what the—?!

Mamemametchi: W-who's saying that?!

Mametchi: I-I don't know but it sounds familiar to me for some reason…

Mysterious Voice: But there still remains a Kizuna Heart around here in that government building up ahead…if you can obtain it, I'll bring each of you back to your correct time and mark the locations of the rest of the Kizuna Hearts with the Shinjitsu Shrine.

Kizunatchi: (Why does it sound so much like Kizunatchi's daddy-nanoja…?)

Mametchi: Well…we've got something to do at that building over there…two things actually…*Turns to Mamemametchi*…so…is this goodbye?

Mamemametchi: Well…even if it is…thank you…for everything you've done…but still…there is something about the government that I need to tell you…remember the huge forest monster you've recently slain? Well…I hate to say this, but…I was the cause of our economic collapse.

Everyone: WHAT?! But how?!

Mamemametchi: You see, a few months ago I was at my desk, trying to see how weeds would react to various types of chemicals…*Flashback clips are shown as he is telling the story*…it wasn't anything out of the ordinary…considering that I would do things like this on an everyday basis and nothing went wrong. Because of that, I assumed that this project wouldn't have anything of the sort that could be potentially bad…well, assumed…*Clip shows Mamemametchi accidentally causing a weed to grow out of control as he attempts to stop it with the WeedKiller but to no avail*…I accidentally made the plant grow out of control and had it take over the entire planet…and even with the WeedKiller, I couldn't do anything to stop it…it was just growing too fast…the plants then quickly evolved into a sand worm-like monster that would eat random passerby and animals at night. The government quickly took action and labeled the monster a public health hazard, sending in entire military squadrons in an attempt to take it down. *Clip shows military squadrons attempting to kill the monster but with most of them only being eaten* However…none of them had the same tools I did…and they were never able to even make a dent in the thing…not helping was the fact that the monster grew 10 times larger every night, making it even tougher to fight or even escape from. The government knew that this beast would destroy the world if it was kept around though, so they didn't give up. However, everything they did cost them huge amounts of money, which eventually led them to financial debt. In a desperate attempt to save themselves, they resorted to hyperinflation and slavery through various measures. However…the economy and those who relied on it couldn't keep up, and after a few short months, this is where we ended up at…and…and I'm really sorry…for all of it…this is all my fault…

Melodytchi: No! Don't blame yourself! I also have things I don't want to remember…but…but could we please not go into details about it…?

Mamemametchi: T…thanks…

Lovelitchi: It's no issue! Wait…shouldn't we get back to the quest?

Mametchi: Oh! I forgot—it's about time we get outta here. Anyway race ya to the building! *Runs off*

Memetchi: Ooh, playing some hardball here, huh? Well, you picked the wrong girl to ask for a race, mister! *Runs off*

Everyone: Wait up!

Back in the present…

Makiko: *On social media looking at an image of herself she just uploaded* Hmm…too far to the right…? Oh whatever, no one's gonna notice if it's me in the picture. What should the title be…oh! Yes! "The soon-to-be nicest girl on Tamagotchi Planet"! Now to save…done! Now we wait…

5 minutes later…

Makiko: *Reaches for cell phone as it beeps* Oh! A comment already! Let's see what they have to say! It's gotta be something good because it's me in the picture, right? *Looks at post and notices the like/dislike ratio has more dislikes* W-what?! What's going on?! "'The soon-to-be nicest girl on Tamagotchi Planet' Yet she still brags about her hair all day on random people's feeds. Narcissists really shouldn't be on the internet." "Considering you constantly bully one of my friends just because of her hair, claiming that you're the nicest girl on the planet is pretty hypocritical if you ask me." "Shut your mouth you—" *Deletes message and blocks user* Why do I get more trolls than real followers? Are they maybe just jealous? *Thinks about what Violetchi said to her earlier*…hmm…or is it something else…?

*Flashback clips of Makiko harassing other users and getting bombarded by hate comments in retaliation briefly play along with discovering wikis and discussion posts centered around exposing her antics*

Makiko: …yeah…I'd be swarmed by imposters and not be on so many peoples' block lists if jealousy was the one pulling the strings…I'm really surprised it isn't but I'll do anything if it means improving my image…*Starts searching on the internet for information on how to be nice to people*

Back in the past…

Mametchi: Uh…we've got a problem…

Lovelitchi: What? What's wrong?

Mametchi: Those guards…they're carrying rifles…*Camera briefly pans to show a bird flying by with one of the guards shooting said bird offscreen*

Memetchi: Yeah, we knew that…

Nuritchi: HEY! Why'd you shoot that bird?! He wasn't doing anything—

Mametchi: *Covers her mouth* L-let's uh…turn back…*Whispering* You should really just wait back at Mamemametchi's house…

Nuritchi: Why are you whispering?

Mametchi: *Still whispering* Don't…question it right now…!

*The group then move behind something away from the guards*

Mametchi: Everyone, we're splitting up.

Ringotchi: W-why?

Mametchi: These guys have rifles…if they spot us within the property for even a moment, we're dead. I want everyone but me and the chosen ones to stay behind—it's too dangerous.

Watawatatchi: C-can't we just…t-talk to them…?

Mametchi: I really wish we could…but these are the types of soldiers that shoot anything on sight!

Lovelitchi: He's right…they're going to view us as enemies until we can gain their trust…

Ringotchi: Gah…I hate it when people act like that…why must we immediately jump to conclusions and view everything in extremes?

Kuchipatchi: *Licking her*

Ringotchi: AHHH! *Punches him* W-WHAT'S YOUR PROBLEM?!

Kuchipatchi: I-I was just hungry-datchi! I forgot that you weren't food and I'm sorry-datchi!

Ringotchi: …like there…I still want you to stay at least 3FT away from me though!

Back in the present…

*Violetchi is growing flowers before Makiko randomly hands her one*

Makiko: Hey, I want you to have this!

Violetchi: Um…ok…but…why?

Makiko: You said you wanted me to be nicer, right? So that's what I'm doing! Oh, and you're the 394th person today to receive one from me!

Violetchi: Um…you don't have to go out of your way like that constantly…

Makiko: But isn't that what nice people do?

Violetchi: Maybe on small occasions…but I still want you to enjoy the same things you used to! You don't have to give up your entire lifestyle to be nice!

Makiko: Please take it! I need to donate to charity! *Drops flower and runs off*

Violetchi: (…what have I done…?)

Back in the past…

Mamemametchi: Wow, that was quick! But where's Mametchi and…uh…the chosen ones? I don't know their names…

Memetchi: They go by Lovelitchi and Melodytchi.

Ringotchi: They ditched us because they considered it too dangerous for all of us to go in…ok, not ditched, but asked us to wait outside.

Mamemametchi: I see…(Oh, I hope those three will be alright…)

Lovelitchi: So…how do we get inside?

Mametchi: Um…maybe we could try the vents again?

Melodytchi: Nani?

Mametchi: We used those to enter your castle in order to find you undetected. It might work the same way here! *Enters vent* Just follow me and we should be okay! *Screams come from the vent as Mametchi then makes a mad dash out and pants*…th…there was a guard…

Lovelitchi: Darn…any other ideas?

Telelin: Telelin has one!

Group: Huh?

Telelin: *Notices guard coming by* Watch this! *Falls to the floor remaining as still as possible*

Lovelitchi: Wha—?! What are you—?!

Telelin: Shhh!

Guard: *Picks her up* Hmm…sir, any idea what this is?

Other Guard: Nope…think we should maybe toss it…just to be safe?

Guard: …yeah, let's put it in the waste basket. *Walking towards the building*

Other Guard: Okay, but I still got a spot to guard so I'll be waiting here.

Lovelitchi: H-how is this a good idea?!

Telelin: *Turns and winks at Lovelitchi when the guards aren't looking*

Lovelitchi: …

Back in the present…

Chamametchi: BIG BROTHER!

Mamametchi: Come over if you can hear us!

Papamametchi: We just need you for one second!

Hapihapitchi: Please! One second-awo!

Imotchi: *After they continue calling for a while* Look, they're not coming back. They've left Tamagotchi Town and we're not gonna find them unless we ourselves leave.

Chamametchi: I know! I just wonder if he maybe has returned!

Imotchi: He hasn't, and he won't until we leave town ourselves and find them first.

Mamametchi: Could you maybe be a little less rude?

Imotchi: W-well it's true! I'd go out myself but I'd get busted for it so I can't!

Others: …

Makiko: What's up, peeps? *Gives them flowers*

Chamametchi: Uh…I don't need this…

Makiko: Well, I insist you take it anyway! *Leaves*

Violetchi: She gave me one too—and has been doing that all morning!

Imotchi: My sister always goes on and on about how much of a jerk she is…(At least when she was still in town at least…)…but she was clearly trying to be nice there! Like, what?

Violetchi: Well…I recently told her about her behavior with Memetchi and she seems to have taken my advice on improving herself…a little too much, actually.

Makiko: After you.

Civilian: No, after you.

Makiko: No, I insist!

Violetchi: *As the two are bickering in the background* I'm actually kind of worried for her…as great as being nice is, it's entirely possible to go too far with it! Like, I know this from experience—what if she becomes overwhelmed by the need to please everyone? Speaking of which, I'm still worried that my friends out there are having this anxiety…because I know for a fact that both Mametchi and Lovelitchi can be perfectionists and have a tendency to get upset over flaws no one else notices…hey! Makiko!

Makiko: What?

Violetchi: I have something nice you could do for me…

Makiko: What is it?

Violetchi: These folk over here are Mametchi's family! They're currently on a mission to find their son…could you please join me and help them out?

Makiko: M-Mametchi?! N-no! A member of the Mametchi Fan Club can't just leave him there…! I-I'm coming with you and there's nothing you do to stop me!

*Everyone stares at each other*

Makiko: I take that as a yes, so let's move!

Back in the past…

Telelin: (That was disgusting…Telelin never really knew how messy trash could get…but she's finally found what she was looking for—the weapons department! *Lifts up grenade* Man…Telelin's so sorry she has to do this…and her friends may also get mad at her…but she needs to clear them a path somehow…*Sneaks up on a guard and rolls the grenade to it, which then explodes and hurts Telelin's non-existent ears while also setting off nearby alarms* AHH! W-what's going on?!

Mametchi: I hear a siren going off what happened?!

Lovelitchi: Gah…

Mametchi and Melodytchi: What?

Lovelitchi: DARN IT, TELELIN! *Runs straight for the entrance as a guard aims his rifle at her*

*The guard then shoots but misses due to Kizunatchi swerving the rifle in a different direction*

Kizunatchi: Kizunatchi will hold him off! You're still the chosen ones even if you kinda stink at it-nanoja…!

Lovelitchi: B-b-but what about—

Kizunatchi: Hurry up and save Telelin-nanoja!

*The three then run in while having concerned looks on their faces*

Telelin: T-Telelin's getting out of here! *Runs for the exit but a large door suddenly closes in front of her* WHAT?! *Part of the wall behind her then explodes with several military soldiers* U-u-uh…h-hi…? Look, m-maybe we just came at a bad time but we uh…would appreciate it if…*The soldiers look at each other with confusion as she continues talking in the background*…uh…you maybe tone the taxes down a notch? B-because…we don't…really need them anymore if you look outside…? *The guards aim their rifles at her* O-ok…T-Telelin's sorry if that offended you…just…uh…AHHH! *Runs off as the guards shoot at her before quickly getting cornered under a desk* HELP!

Mametchi: That must be her!

Lovelitchi: We're coming!

Melodytchi: *Suddenly screams and gropes her arm in pain as a gunshot is heard* Ow ow ow ow!

Lovelitchi: A-are you okay?! *Notices guard ahead reloading shotgun* MOVE! *The three barely escape to another hallway before the guard fires again*

Kizunatchi: *Still fighting with the guard while constantly swerving to avoid being shot until she notices hears Telelin screaming from a nearby window* TELELIN! *Gets shot in the chest and falls to the ground injured as the guard holds his rifle up to her while reloading* (N-no…i-is this…really the end?! Are we the Kizuna Heroes already defeated now…?! But…but what about Kizunatchi's friends…the chosen ones…Telelin…*Starts glowing*) NO-NANOJA! *Punches guard and snaps rifle in half*

Guard: W-what the—?! *Kizunatchi grabs him by the leg with one arm and throws him towards the sky while he screams*

Kizunatchi: Wh…what just happened-nanoja?! *Hears Telelin screaming* Gotta think about it later-nanoja! *Flys towards the window*

Telelin: *As a rifle is right by her* P-please! Telelin only wants to help!

Guard: Then give us some money, whoever you are!

Telelin: T-Telelin doesn't have anything! She and her friends just wanted to tell you that—*Covers mouth* Crud…

Guard: There's other trespassers?! Men, scatter and find those other infiltrating scums—I got some business to take—*Kizunatchi breaks through window and kicks him far back* AHHH!

Telelin: What the—?!

Guards: HUH?!

Kizunatchi: *Beats up all the guards while being able to dodge every bullet until they all faint*

Telelin: Wh…wh…what in the…how did you…

Kizunatchi: Kizunatchi doesn't know! But she is going to take advantage of this power while she still can so hold on-nanoja! *Punches hole through the door that locked Telelin in and flys through while holding her*

Telelin: T-there was another ent—WAH!

Mametchi: I-if only there was like…a computer of some sort?! To hack into those security systems?!

Melodytchi: W-what security systems? AH!

*The three run into missile launchers which they barely manage to avoid by turning a nearby corner before encountering other security systems such as mounted machine guns and motion detected bombs before escaping the hall in the nick of time from doors closing in random locations*

Mametchi: *Panting* Like…like those?

Lovelitchi: *Panting* The…the screaming's…stopped…

Melodytchi: *Panting* Tai…taihen…

Mametchi: Let's…let's just…catch our breath for a bit…we should be safe now…

*The lights turn on revealing that the trio is actually surrounded by guards*

Mametchi: I really need to stop saying stuff like that.

Back in the present…

Chamametchi: Ok…that is a lot of space to cover…

Hapihapitchi: Hapihapitchi's been out there before if you want her to guide you-awo!

Papamametchi: It's been a long time…I can only remember a few things about the world out there…and we don't know where our son is in any of that…

Mamametchi: W-we can't just abandon him!

Papamametchi: Yeah, that's the problem!

Makiko: Shouldn't we get started already?!

Violetchi: We're trying to figure out where to start…

Kuromametchi: That forest.

Violetchi: K-Kuromametchi?! W-where have you been?

Kuromametchi: The details aren't important; the only thing that does matter is the fact that Mametchi and his friends should be heading towards or somewhere in that forest. That place holds the Shinjitsu Shrine.

Violetchi: (H…how does he know about their current destination for their quest?!)…okay, Kuromametchi, lead the way!

Kuromametchi: Sorry, I can't—got other things to do. See ya. *Leaves*

Violetchi: W-wait!…never mind…Hapihapitchi, mind leading us the way?

Hapihapitchi: Hapihapitchi will try-awo! Just follow her-awo!

Everyone: Ok!

Violetchi: (That was so out of character for Kuromametchi…what could he possibly be doing during this time?)

Back in the past…

Guard: Put your hands up and your lives may be spared.

Mametchi: P-please! W-we don't mean any harm!

Guard: "Don't mean harm"? Then could you explain why a dozen of our soldiers have been found unconscious in the weapons closet?

Mametchi: …what? W-we never did that!

Lovelitchi: T-that had to be someone else! (I swear to Gotchi, Telelin…)

Guard: "Someone else"?

All: Y-yeah!

Guard: *Holds rifle up to them* Nice try terrorists. *Gets punched by Kizunatchi*

Everyone: WHAT THE—?!

*Kizunatchi is beating up all the guards as Mametchi and the chosen ones watch in shock*

Mametchi: U-um…uh…Kizunatchi…

*Kizunatchi continues to beat up the guards*

Lovelitchi: W-would you please stop…?!

*Kizunatchi has a guard pinned down and continuously hits him in the face*

Melodytchi: THAT'S ENOUGH! YAME!

Kizunatchi: *About to slam a piano in a guard's face* What? Kizunatchi's only trying to protect you-nanoja!

Melodytchi: What are you doing?! You NEVER attack anyone who can't fight back!

Mametchi: Melodytchi's right—haven't they suffered enough?!

Lovelitchi: You're going too far! You should only use violence when you absolutely have to and that was not one of those times!

Kizunatchi: How was it too far-nanoja? *Drops piano which then makes a large impact noise as a guard yells in pain in the background* You were in danger and Kizunatchi wanted to help with her new Super Saiyan powers! Besides, doesn't killing the threat render it unable to attack you again-nanoja?

Mysterious Voice: Kizunatchi…

Everyone: T-that voice again?!

Mysterious Voice: I know the desire to protect one's friends can make you willing to stand up against anything, but you must remember that you are a member of the Kizuna.

Kizunatchi: So what-nanoja?

Mysterious Voice: The Kizuna have the ability to grow in strength as they form friendships with other people. And while you may've felt invincible from that one particular moment, that is only the beginning, and those powers are triggered when one becomes concerned for the safety of their friends.

Kizunatchi: So this isn't even Kizunatchi's final form-nanoja?! Show her every friend you got when we're back home-nanoja!

Mysterious Voice: No, that is not the reason why one should be motivated to find friends. You are still a young Kizuna and don't fully understand how unbelievably powerful you can become or why abuse of that power is dangerous.

Kizunatchi: D-dangerous?! How would Kizunatchi become dangerous-nanoja?!

Mysterious Voice: You just aren't ready yet…I'll see you again.

Kizunatchi: *Grunt* K-Kizunatchi can't move the door-nanoja…!…wait…where's Kizunatchi's powers?! Kizunatchi felt like she could effortlessly take on anything and anyone-nanoja…*Door suddenly opens* HUH?! KIZUNATCHI HAS TELEKINETIC POWERS-NANOJA?!

Mametchi: Sorry…that was actually me hacking a nearby panel to open this door…

Kizunatchi: Darn it-nanoja!

30 minutes later…

Gotchi King: Wow! Those are some excellent trespassers we got!…you know, EGG-cellent trespassers.

Princess Tamako: Dad! This is no time to be making cruddy egg jokes! Don't you think our military would be better trained if you actually took your job seriously? (Once again, it's always up to me to deal with everything here!) Also, I've been asking you this exact same question for 3 months now, but—don't you think slavery is taking it too far?

Gotchi King: Slavery? How is what I'm doing slavery? All we're doing is rejecting peoples' paychecks so we can fry up some egg-cellent cash!…get it?

Princess Tamako: That's the dictionary definition of slavery…and no, the joke wasn't funny the first time, nor was it funny the second or even the 286th time! *Pulls out chart saying "How many 'eggcellent' jokes Gotchi King made today"*

*The group enters the room with the Gotchi King*

Mametchi: Please! We just want to—oh no…

Lovelitchi: …what?

Mametchi: Th-that guy looks just like our current government leader!

Gotchi King: Well, that's because I AM your government leader! You three crack me up!…you know…because I look like an egg?

Princess Tamako: (How does this lunatic even stay elected?)

Melodytchi: *Starts laughing hysterically along with Kizunatchi and Telelin* Th…this is coming from someone who…who looks like an egg!

Mametchi: Do you really need to point that out?

Lovelitchi: Yeah, could you be a little less insensitive?

Gotchi King: Well I don't know what that word means but yes! I do indeed look like an egg and so I take it as a compliment!

Princess Tamako: Hey, shouldn't we do something?! About the trespassers?

Gotchi King: Oh, right! Wait, what were we supposed to do to trespassers again?

Princess Tamako: GAH! GET RID OF THEM! WAKE UP!

Gotchi Queen: Calm down!

Princess Tamako: But mom—!

Gotchi Queen: Didn't they say that they wanted to help us out? I think we should listen to them for a bit first. I want to stop having to resort to slavery for our debt as much as the people do and maybe they can provide assistance. *Walks over to the group* We apologize if our security guards and systems gave you trouble—they take their jobs especially seriously.

Kizunatchi: It was no biggie-nanoja! Not when Kizunatchi could effortlessly—

Lovelitchi: *Cover Kizunatchi's mouth*…uh…a-ain't she a jokester?

Gotchi Queen: …

Mametchi: We came because that plant monster outside…look!

Gotchi Queen: Hm? *Does so and then tears up a bit* Wha—?!…you…you're saying that you…

Mametchi: Yeah!

Gotchi Queen: …but…but…how?! Y-you mean it's—

Mametchi: Right!

Gotchi Queen: A…and that—

Mametchi: Yep! That monster's no longer a threat to you!

Gotchi Queen: *Sniff*…th…th…thank you! *Hugs all three*

Princess Tamako: Ugh—not again! *Shields eyes and looks away*

Gotchi Queen: …but…look, I'm happy that the threat is taken care of, but please—next time leave tasks like that to the military…it's dangerous!

Mametchi: Well…we kinda got eaten by it and had to force our way out through extreme measures but anything that's mutually beneficial for you is a good thing in my book! Anyway, take these! *Pulls out some treasure loot*

Gotchi Queen: Wha…?

Mametchi: You see, we're actually treasure hunters! Well, it wasn't our plan but that's just what happened…even so, we want you to have some of this! You need it more than we do.

Gotchi Queen: Thank you…*Takes loot*…we've hated everything that we've had to do ever since that day…it may take a little while before things completely settle back to normal, but I'm sure that we can do it now that we have the sufficient resources…*Hugs them again*…and it's all thanks to you…

Group: (Oh boy…)

Kizunatchi: *Interrupts and distracts everyone* W-w-wait hold on—d-did you just say that you're Treasure Hunters-nanoja?! Like, REAL TREASURE HUNTERS?!

Mametchi: U-uh…an…apparently…?

Lovelitchi: I-it wasn't planned but…

Kizunatchi: Why didn't you tell Kizunatchi earlier-nanoja?!

*Nearby Kizuna Plate begins to glow and dispense a Kizuna Heart*

Gotchi Queen: Wh…what happening to our painting?!

Princess Tamako: I don't know…

Gotchi King: It's glowing! Like egg yolk! Get it?

Princess Tamako: Okay, seriously—that one didn't even make sense!

Gotchi King: Who need logic when you have crack-ups! Like how eggs crack up?

Princess Tamako: That's it—I'm out! *Eats her chart and runs off as everyone else looks confused*

Lovelitchi: Uh…your highness?

Gotchi Queen: Hm?

Lovelitchi: Could you please set us down for one second?…we kinda need to get that Kizuna Heart nearby…

Gotchi Queen: …what heart?

Melodytchi: Please, just do it!

Gotchi Queen: *Sets them down*

*Lovelitchi and Melodytchi hit the Melody Charm icon on their Profys in the same way as before until the Kizuna Heart splits and enters both Profys while Kizunatchi is dancing happily*

END OF CHAPTER

Gotchi King: Oh! I forgot to mention—each of you are egg-tremely cute!

Mametchi: *Blushes* N-no I'm not…!

Lovelitchi: (Yes you are now stop it!)

Gotchi King: (Well…particularly the girls and those small walking and flying things next to them…)

Gotchi Queen: Please don't worry about the economic situation…you've given us what we need to keep it under control.

Gotchi King: And who knows? Maybe we can even write an egg-cellent story based off of these events!

Princess Tamako: Or at least until it becomes old and people suddenly decide that it's now boring. *Rushes back in the room* And please—stop with the egg puns!

Gotchi King: Why don't you like them? They crack me up! Because—

Princess Tamako: WE GET THE PUNCHLINE! *Sigh* Look, I don't see how any sane person would—*Notices that the trio is gone*…where the heck did they go?

Princess Tamakoko: Sis, why are all of our soldiers taking naps in random rooms?…sis?

Princess Tamako: *Screams as the scene quickly cuts to the present*

Mametchi: Um…what about all those soldiers…?

Kizunatchi: Pft, they'll be fine! Anyway, let Kizunatchi do the talking with the Shinjitsu Shrine this time-nanoja! *Turns to shrine* Hello! Kizunatchi has finally found the chosen ones-nanoja!

Mysterious Voice: *Unintelligible creepy noises*

Kizunatchi: No, they're not exactly the knights in shining armor Kizunatchi was imagining either…but they've so far found 2 Tama Hearts and 2 Kizuna Hearts, so they might still have a chance-nanoja.

Lovelitchi: What is going on?

Melodytchi: Wakaranai…

Mysterious Voice: *More unintelligible creepy noises*

Kizunatchi: Yes…we've also managed to bring her phone to life…and next is a future friend's camera-nanoja…

Mysterious Voice: *More unintelligible creepy noises*

Kizunatchi: Kizunatchi's repeating so the readers can follow along-nanoja…also, the chosen ones have been given a map of our world to find the remaining Kizuna Hearts…*Pulls map out*…we came here for your assistance and need information-nanoja…please?

*The map is updated as the voice makes more noises*

Kizunatchi: Thank you…we appreciate your help-nanoja!

Mysterious Voice: *More noises*

Kizunatchi: N-no! K-Kizunatchi's not going to abuse her power-nanoja!

Mysterious Voice: *You know by this point*

Kizunatchi: Huh?! You can give the chosen ones Mystical Swords too-nanoja?!

Mysterious Voice: *Yada yada*

Kizunatchi: Oh…you meant Kizuna Swords-nanoja…

Mysterious Voice: *Blah blah blah*

Kizunatchi: Yeah, they should be ready for them! Considering you've been waiting here for ages for them to show up-nanoja…Kizunatchi also thinks they'd look better with them-nanoja!

*The Shinjitsu Shrine opens up to reveal two swords stuck in a stone*

Mametchi: W-w…what the—?!

Lovelitchi: A-are those…?!

Melodytchi: M-masaka!

Mysterious Voice: *Again with the noises*

Kizunatchi: The shrine says take them-nanoja!

Telelin: Lovelin told Telelin that this only happened in fairy tales…

Mametchi: I…I'll get them! *Walks up and struggles to remove one*

Kizunatchi: Kizunatchi doesn't think that it'll work if the one trying to remove them isn't the chosen ones-nanoja!

Mametchi: *Sighs and walks off* (This is a basic fantasy cliche! How did you forget?!)

Lovelitchi and Melodytchi: *Walk up and attempt to remove the swords but are unable to*

Kizunatchi: You're holding the wrong blades-nanoja! They're color-coded if you're unsure which one is yours-nanoja!

Lovelitchi and Melodytchi: Oops…*Swap positions and remove the swords a few seconds later*

Kizunatchi: You did it-nanoja!

Lovelitchi: But…a…a sword?! I…I don't want to hurt anyone…!

Melodytchi: Can we go back to having power fantasy in Shonen anime rather than real life?

Kizunatchi: Kizunatchi's sure that there will be a moment where you might need those-nanoja! Plus, you're the chosen ones so you can't get rid of them-nanoja!

*The group hear some screaming before a pink alien runs by*

Mametchi: Wait! W-who are you?

*The pink alien briefly stares at Mametchi before noticing a blue alien running at her*

Pink Alien: N-never mind me…please! My father…stop him! *Runs off*

Mametchi: F…father?

Kizunatchi: Who was that-nanoja?

Telelin: Yeah, that wasn't in Telelin's memory chip!

*The blue alien finally appears but stops in front of the group*

Blue Alien: Out of my way!

Mametchi: Wait! We just need to ask you something first! Why are you chasing some other pink alien thing around?!

Blue Alien: That "pink alien" is my daughter, Himespetchi! And my name's Kingspetchi! Now MOVE! *Looks around and realizes that he can't find Himespetchi* I…I lost her?! *Pulls out katana* You planet scums are dead.

Mametchi: W-w-we're sorry! P-please calm down!

Kingspetchi: NO ONE takes my daughter away and gets away with it. Die. *Slashes katana at Mametchi but the chosen ones jump in front and block the blow with their swords* Why you…!

Lovelitchi: Mametchi! We'll hold him off! Go!

Mametchi: B-but—

Melodytchi: Hurry!

Mametchi: *Stands for a few seconds* P-please just…just stay safe! *Runs off without breaking eye contact*

Kizunatchi: W-wait! It's dangerous to go alone-nanoja! *Chases him*

Telelin: Please stay safe Lovelin! *Follows*

Kingspetchi: Gah…LITTLE BRATS! *Shoves the two out of the bind while pulling out another katana*

Lovelitchi: This is bad…this is bad…

Melodytchi: We can't let him get to Mametchi! Come on! *Charges in*

Lovelitchi: We are so dead…! *Follows*

*A brief Star Wars-eske duel between each of them plays out but Kingspetchi quickly finds a way to disarm and wound both heroes*

Duo: GAH!

Kingspetchi: *Pins both to the ground with a knife*…really? That was the best you could fight back with?

*The duo squirm in an attempt to break free but are unsuccessful*

Kingspetchi: Oh forget it. I don't have time to deal with wannabe enemies. I have to find my daughter and I can't let anyone stand in my way. Now die. *Gets kicked back* GAH! What the—?!

*The mysterious black figure pulls out katana of his own and charges at Kingspetchi as another lightsaber duel-eske battle begins—with the black figure being noticeably more skilled*

Lovelitchi: Huh…?!

Melodytchi: That figure again?!

*The duo grab their weapons and are about to jump back at Kingspetchi but the black figure makes a hand gesture that implies he wants them to stand back*

*The fight between the two continues and is rather intense and prolonged until the black figure slices through one of Kingspetchi's katanas*

Kingspetchi: Wha—?!

*The black figure chops through the other katana while Kingspetchi is distracted*

Kingspetchi: No! *Sigh* Great…just kill me…I've already failed my people and my daughter…

*The black figure looks as if he is going to finish him off but then puts his weapon away and dashes off leaving a note behind*

Kingspetchi: Wait—! *Sighs and reads note* "I do not kill, Exerting more force than necessary goes against my moral code."…hey, you two.

Lovelitchi and Melodytchi: …h-huh…?

Kingspetchi: I have to save my daughter, so I can't afford to waste any more time with you.

Lovelitchi: But…don't you want help?

Kingspetchi: No. And have a good day. *Runs off*

Lovelitchi: W-wait! You don't have to…*Sigh*

Melodytchi: Kuso…

Lovelitchi: Why won't he let us help…?

Melodytchi: Wakaranai…

Lovelitchi: *Sigh*…wait, w-where's the others?!

*The rest of the Kizuna Heroes and those that were with them suddenly teleport on top of and squish them*

Mysterious Voice: Sorry…I forgot that you split up a few hours ago…as well as 100 years.

Later near Tamagotchi Town…

Chamametchi: BIG BROTHER!

Hapihapitchi: There he is-awo!

Mametchi: Huh…? M-my family?! *Runs up and hugs them*

Telelin: You have parents?

Kizunatchi: Uh…doesn't everyone-nanoja?

Telelin: Telelin's only a phone and kinda doesn't…

Kizunatchi: Hmm…then how about we have Lovelin be your new mom-nanoja?

Chamametchi: *As the two continue to talk in the background* I missed you so much…

Mametchi: I…I'm sorry…this quest is just taking longer than I expected…

Hapihapitchi: Don't you want a rest-awo?

Mametchi: But…we still have Kizuna Hearts to find…

Mamametchi: Okay…we don't know what Kizuna Hearts are but we think you and your friends should rest for now…speaking of which, where are they?

Lovelitchi: Sorry…!

Melodytchi: We got hindered by something…!

Mametchi: Yes! You're ok! *Hugs*

Ringotchi: We were worried in the same way about you…!

Memetchi: But…what do we do now?

Mametchi: Well…Kizunatchi was able to extract information on the locations of the remaining Kizuna Hearts. That and the chosen ones have some sorts of fantasy swords now!

Watawatatchi: S-swords…?! But…

Uwasatchi: That sounds awesome-dawasa!…um…W-Watawatatchi-dawasa?

Telelin: No, we can't have Melodytchi be the dad! She's a girl!

Kizunatchi: And…?

Telelin: That's just…weird!

Kizunatchi: Not really to Kizunatchi…who cares if they're the same gender-nanoja?

Telelin: Also Lovelin stated that she has never had any intentions of romance towards Melodytchi, Mametchi, or anybody!

Kizunatchi: …what the heck does any of that mean-nanoja?

Nuritchi: AHH!

Kizunatchi: *As everyone looks at Nuritchi* Not again-nanoja…

Mametchi: L-let's just, uh…maybe stop and take a rest back at our homes for a bit?

Lovelitchi: But…actually you're right…our parents are probably worried about us…

Memetchi: But returning home's gonna take forever! Remember what Mametchi said back in Chapter 1?! I'm waiting until we finish first!

Makiko: Oh! Hi Memetchi! How did we not see each other?

Memetchi: AHH! NEVER MIND I'M OUT! *Runs off*

Makiko: But I didn't even insult you…! *Chases her*

*Everyone stares*

Lovelitchi: Let's…go home…

*Brief montage of each of the main characters returning to their homes (Except Melodytchi) play as they happily reunite and begin a night routine*

Melodytchi: Wait…my home's in a different country…

Lovelitchi: You can stay here as long as you like! I don't mind!

Telelin: Telelin can help you call Joou Sama if you're feeling homesick!

Melodytchi: A…arigato…

Telelin: She's on low battery and needs her charging station though…so please hurry!

Melodytchi: Don't worry—all I'm doing is saying that I'm okay! *Dials up Joou Sama's number* Moshi moshi? Yes…I'm okay, but you wouldn't believe what happened today…!

Manenetchi: *As Melodytchi is talking in the background* Oh! Melodytchi's staying with you?

Lovelitchi: Her home is too far away and we need to make do…hey! Did you know that my phone can talk now?

Manenetchi: R…really?

Lovelitchi: Yeah! I don't know how but…well it happened after we got caught in some sort of time warp but we did somehow manage to find our way back!

Manenetchi: Wow…that's pretty crazy! But…where is Melodytchi going to sleep?

Lovelitchi: Oh, in the same bed as me!

Manenetchi: Are you sure you can both even fit?

Lovelitchi: I'm sure we can! *Lays down and spreads limbs out yet is only able to cover a minimal portion of the bed* I'm pretty sure this thing is too big for us if anything—just look how much space there is up here!

Manenetchi: *Looking around at her surroundings* Hmm…yeah you have a point…though it's more than just your bed that seems that way…but going off-topic—how's the adventure going?

Lovelitchi: We almost got ourselves killed a few times, but that's kind of the norm nowadays…and about my new friends…they haven't backstabbed me or Melodytchi yet—In fact, I'm pretty sure they saved our lives a few times!

Manenetchi: I'm glad to hear that! Just please take a rest and allow yourself to recover from all that you've been through…

Lovelitchi: I will…thank you.

Manenetchi: No problem.

Melodytchi: …and hopefully I'll see you again by the time we're done…bye…*Hangs up and puts Telelin on her charger*

Telelin: *Yawn* We need to rest…

Kizunatchi: Who's that tablet thingy-nanoja?

Telelin: That's one of Lovelin's best friends…Manenetchi…*Yawn* Please…please let us rest for a bit…

*Everyone but Kizunatchi begins to doze off*

Kizunatchi: Wait! Kizunatchi isn't tired yet-nanoja! Please wake up-nanoja! *No one responds*…this is gonna be a long night-nanoja…*Sits in a corner with her arms crossed*

The next day…

Lovelitchi: *Yawn*…morning…! *Grabs Telelin from her charger*

Telelin: It's…it's morning already…?

Lovelitchi: …yes…and we need to head back out for the Kizuna Hearts…*Pulls out map* So…where should we go first?

Telelin: AHH! I-is that a pirate lair?! *Points at the area marked "Kaizoku Ruins"*

Lovelitchi: (Oh no…and there's a Kizuna Heart there…)

Melodytchi: Is it…time to go already?

Lovelitchi: Yes…

Melodytchi: (And I'm still half-asleep…) Wait…where's Kizunatchi?

Lovelitchi: Hmm…*Looks around and notices Kizunatchi still in the same corner while currently asleep* Oh! There! *Walks over* Um…isn't that uncomfortable?

Kizunatchi: *Yawn* Wha…what time is it-nanoja…?

Lovelitchi: 08:00…and aren't you uncomfortable there? You're allowed to sleep in the same bed as us!

Kizunatchi: Kizu…Kizunatchi wasn't tired yet and decided to wait out the night-nanoja…

Lovelitchi: (Oh…)

*They each walk downstairs*

Lovelitchi: Good morning, Mom and Dad!

Melodytchi: Ohayo!

Parents: Morning!

Lovemamalitchi: Wow! Who's that with you?

Melodytchi: My name's Melodytchi, nice to meet you!

Lovemamalitchi: Oh! I'm really happy that you're making new friends!

Lovepapalitchi: Well, we can tell that you and your friends are still in a hurry, want some of my specials to fill you up?

Lovemamalitchi: (Um…)

Lovelitchi: W-we're fine! D-don't worry…!

Melodytchi: You don't have to eat if you don't want to but I'm kind of hungry right now…

Kizunatchi: Kizunatchi wants some breakfast too-nanoja! What about you, Telelin?

Telelin: Telelin can't eat or drink, nor does she need to.

Lovelitchi: U-uh…no! W-we really don't need any—

Lovepapalitchi: *Holding food trays* Done! Help yourself!

Lovemamalitchi: (This isn't gonna end well…)

Lovelitchi: N-no! Don't eat—uh, I mean…

Melodytchi and Kizunatchi: Bon Appetite! *Take bites*

Lovelitchi: (Here it comes…) *Covers "ears"*

Melodytchi: *Slightly gags as everyone stares at her concerned* Th-that's…good! So much so that—*Gags more* I…I don't want to eat all of it right away!

Lovelitchi: Um…

Kizunatchi: *Immediately spits the food out* What is this garbage-nanoja?!

Lovelitchi: Uh…sh-she's just joking!…r-right?

Kizunatchi: How is that a joke in any—

Lovelitchi: Well it was nice seeing you but we need to go so bye! *Runs out* You know…not everyone needs to hear your 100% honest opinions…

Kizunatchi: But how is he gonna improve if the praise he gets is false-nanoja?

Lovelitchi: There's a difference between personal attacks and actual criticism. How about we help him out with his cooking AFTER we finish our quest?

Kizunatchi: Ok-nanoja…
