A/N: In this next chapter, let's just say that things will take a rather 'dark and stormy turn', if you know what I mean.
Close Enough: A Regular Show
Chapter 10: Fuzzy Dice
One day, in Benson's office, Mordecai and Rigby walked in as all the other groundskeepers were sitting down.
"Ugh, finally! Could you close the door, please?", Benson asked.
"Yeah, close the door!", Rigby said, earning a shove from Mordecai.
"Just sit down!", Mordecai said as he then closed the door and went to sit down as Benson began to speak.
"As you guys may or may not know, it's Pops' birthday tomorrow. I was planning on getting him something nice from the arts and crafts fair last Saturday, but, nothing really stood out. Has anybody gotten him anything yet?", Benson asked, flipping a page on the easel to reveal the words, "Pops' Birthday" on it.
"No.", Muscle Man asked.
"Why am I not surprised? Ideas? Anybody?", Benson asked as he pulled the cap off the marker.
"How about one of them Jeff Forgeman grills?", Muscle Man asked.
"That's actually not a bad idea, but Pops has been watching his cholesterol. Doctor's orders. What else?", Benson asked.
"How about we get him some new gardening tools?", Skips asked.
"Oh! Or maybe even some butterfly cages?", Mona added.
"Well, maybe. It's just, he gets new gardening tools all the time. And I'm not sure Pops is the kind that wants to keep butterflies as pets, mainly because he prefers the catch-and-release method.", Benson replied.
"What about a new candlelit dinner set?", Josh asked.
"Oh, and maybe even some new cutlery!", Emily added.
"Why not a doll?", Candice asked.
"I'll give you two reasons. 1, both the new dinner set and the silverware are expensive. And 2, the Percival doll incident proved that they're creepy.", Benson replied.
"What about some horseback riding lessons?", Mordecai asked.
"Please tell me you're joking.", Benson retorted.
"Well, no. Isn't he into that?", Mordecai asked.
"Don't you remember? That's the exact same gift we got him last year.", Benson responded.
"Psht.", Rigby said to Mordecai.
"Don't 'psht' me. I don't hear you coming up with anything.", Mordecai glared.
"Yeah, but at least I didn't say the same thing that we got him last year.", Rigby retorted.
Just then, Pops knocked on the door from outside.
"Hello? May I please enter?", Pops asked.
"Just a second!", Benson shouted before flipping the page on the easel back onto the blank sheet. "Okay. You can come in now."
Pops opened the door.
"Ooh! What's everybody doing in here?", Pops asked.
"Oh, hey Pops. We were just, uh... going over the schedule.", Benson fibbed.
"No! We were talking about how no one knows what to get you for your birthday.", Muscle Man replied candidly to Pops.
"Oh!", Pops said.
"Muscle Man, what are you doing?!", Benson shouted.
"I'm saying what's on my mind, bro. I'm just real like that.", Muscle Man replied.
"You want to know what to get me for my birthday? Well, that's quite simple.", Pops said.
"What is it, Pops?", Benson asked.
"A pair of fuzzy dice from the Fun Fun Zone.", Pops responded.
"Fuzzy dice?", Rigby asked.
"Fun Fun Zone?", Candice asked giddily.
"Yes! They're so much fun! But alas, the only way to get them is to win a million tickets. I'm afraid I'm not very good at throwing Skeeze Ballz.", Pops replied sadly.
Then, he walked away.
"Well, fuzzy dice it is.", Benson said.
"Yeah, but I'm not going to the Fun Fun Zone.", Rigby said.
"Yeah, me neither. I can't stand that place. All those nasty kids...", Mordecai agreed.
"Yeah, and talk about sub-standard pizza.", Muscle Man added.
"And what about that annoying animatronic band?", Rigby asked.
Everyone murmured in agreement.
"Alright, alright. Look, I don't like the Fun Fun Zone any more than you do. But if Pops wants those fuzzy dice, then we're gonna get him those fuzzy dice!", Benson vowed.
"Well, if we're going, maybe C.J. could help. She seemed really good with kids when I first saw her.", Mordecai suggested.
"You mean during the 'Death Punchies' incident?", Skips asked.
"Uh, yeah. In any case, I'll go ask her and see if she wants to help.", Mordecai replied.
"Oh, can I go to the Fun Fun Zone? Can I?!", Candice asked excitedly.
"Well..., sure. But while you're there, you have to remember to save the tickets you earn for Pops' Birthday gift, okay?", Emily asked.
"Okay, Mom.", Candice agreed.
Moments later, Mordecai was now outside, talking to C.J. over the phone.
"'Sup, C.J.", Mordecai greeted.
"Oh, hey, Mordecai. What's up?", C.J. said.
"Well, Benson said that we need to get something for Pops' Birthday this year, especially since it's tomorrow.", Mordecai said.
"Really? His birthday's tomorrow? That's sweet.", C.J. grinned.
"Yeah. Only one small problem. Pops wants some fuzzy dice from the Fun Fun Zone.", Mordecai replied.
Little did he know that the moment he said those words, C.J. froze up, a traumatic look of fear present.
"Fuzzy Dice...? Fun Fun Zone...?!", C.J. said with a bit of a hoarse gasp.
"Uh..., C.J.? You okay?", Mordecai asked.
"No way, dude! I am NOT going back there!" C.J. shouted.
"What? Wh... Wait. Back there? What do you mean?", Mordecai asked.
"It's been 10 years since I was last there, Mordecai...! Those animatronics are creepy...! I could even swear I saw one of them move when nobody else was looking...!", C.J. said.
"Oh. Well, neither of us wanted to go there, either. But I didn't know it was that bad for you.", Mordecai said.
"I just don't think I can take the suspense...! Why'd you ask me to go back there of all places...?!", C.J. said.
"Didn't you say once that you're a pro at Skeeze Balls?", Mordecai asked.
This calmed C.J. down for a bit as she was starting to sound more calm.
"Oh, yeah... I did say that... In fact, it used to be my favorite part of coming here before those... ugh... Animatronics...!", C.J. said.
"Huh. How about we work this thing out?", Mordecai asked.
"What do you mean 'work this thing out'?", C.J. asked.
"If you can come and meet us at the Fun Fun Zone, I'll do my level best to make sure you don't see, or hear any mention of, those animatronics. Most people don't really like them, anyways.", Mordecai replied.
"You promise?", C.J. asked.
"Yeah. I promise.", Mordecai promised.
"Hmm... Okay. I'll hold you to it, Mordecai. See you there, soon.", C.J. said.
"That's great! Thanks, C.J.", Mordecai thanked.
"No, Mordecai. Thank you.", C.J. responded.
Later, at the Fun Fun Zone, Mordecai, Rigby, C.J., Josh, Emily, Candice, and the groundskeepers, minus Pops, entered, and look at all the bad stuff about it: "Dance Like a Loser 3", the pizza, the kids laughing, two kids slapping a third kid with pizza while atop a car statue, two kids passed out on top of an ice cream stand, and worst of all, the animatronic band. Fortunately, Mordecai turned C.J.'s head towards his just as she started to hyperventilate for a second.
"Hey. Eyes on me. Okay?", Mordecai asked.
"Yeah... thanks.", C.J. thanked.
"Let's get this over with.", Benson sighed.
The group attempted to walk on in, but were stopped by a female employee.
"Whoa, whoa, whoa! Excuse me! Where do you think you're going?", the employee said.
"We're just here to get some fuzzy dice.", Mordecai asked.
"I'm sorry, but you must accompany at least one child to enter.", the employee said.
"Actually, we have our child, right here.", Josh said, gesturing to Candice.
"Hey.", Candice waved.
"Oh. Okay! Go on in, folks! Have a great time!", the employee said, unhooking the velvet rope.
The group then walked into the main Fun Fun Zone as electro-music started playing. While walking in, Benson stepped on a slice of pizza and wound up getting pushed by some kids.
"Hey!"
"Let's just find the dice and get out of here.", Mordecai said, putting his arm on Benson.
"But we haven't even gotten the tickets yet.", Candice moaned.
"We could at least go to the prize counter and see how those fuzzy dice look.", Josh assured.
"Oh. Okay.", Candice grinned.
Then, everyone went over to a prize center, run by a man named Diego Montez.
"May I help you?", Diego asked.
"Yeah, hi. We'd like a pair of fuzzy dice, please.", Benson replied.
"That'll be one million tickets.", Diego said.
This, of course, earned Benson's sarcastic laughter.
"No. We're actually gonna be paying with cash. How much is that gonna be? Ten, fifteen bucks?", Benson asked, pulling out both his wallet and a dollar bill.
"One million tickets, sir. If you like, all of our price listings for our items are on the wall.", Diego said.
"Well, can we just buy the tickets?", Muscle Man asked.
"Tickets are a penny each.", Diego said, making the group groan.
"Whoa.", Muscle Man reacted.
"Yikes.", Skips added.
"Oh, dear...", Mona added.
"Nice, what's that, like, ten bucks?", Rigby asked.
"Dude, it's not ten bucks. It's ten thousand dollars.", Mordecai replied.
"Wow, really?", Rigby asked.
"Seriously?! It costs that much?", C.J. asked in shock.
"Yeah, I don't think we can afford this...", Emily agreed.
Benson turned to the group.
"All right, bad news, everybody. We're gonna to have to win some tickets if we're gonna get those dice.", Benson said.
"Uh, yeah, we were right here the whole time.", Skips responded.
"Well, at least one of us can actually have fun doing it.", C.J. said, gesturing to Candice.
"Oooooooohhhh!", Candice cheered.
"It's go time!", Muscle Man shouted.
With that, Mordecai, Rigby, C.J., Benson, Hi Five Ghost, Muscle Man, Josh, Emily, Candice, Mona, and Skips all eleven-way high-fived (with Candice being held by Josh for support) as they clock transition to a montage of the gang playing the games. First, Rigby played air hockey. He beats three kids: one in a blue shirt, one in a blue sweatshirt, and another in braces, the last of which cries as Rigby dances while the tickets print out of the slot. Next, Mordecai, Josh, Emily, Candice, and C.J. were all seen playing Skeeze Ballz. Then, trippy imagery of another Mordecai, another Josh, another Emily, another Candice, and of course, another C.J. being added every time they each roll the ball into the hole in the center, up to three Mordecais, three Josh's, three Emily's, three Candice's, and three C.J.'s. After that, it showed a shot of a Skeeze Ball being rolled up the ramp, and turning into a token that gets entered into a slot when the ball went airborne. Then, Skips played a game called "T-Nuggets." He smashed the nuggets with a mallet every time one came up, eventually smashing the machine with it. Meanwhile, Mona, Muscle Man, and Hi Five Ghost were playing Dance Like a Loser 3. When they started, they danced (though Hi Five Ghost used his hands) as the image went into a grid view that eventually turned into nine views of Mona, Muscle Man, & Hi Five Ghost playing. Finally, it went to a shot of the animatronic band as Mordecai covered C.J.'s eyes, earning her smile, followed by a shot of the groundskeepers doing another six-way high-five under the words "Fuzzy Dice." When the montage ended in a clock transition, they now currently have a vast amount of tickets.
"That was so much fun!", Candice grinned.
"So, how's it looking so far?", C.J. asked.
"Alright, guys, I got some bad news. We're 20,000 tickets short of the fuzzy dice. And what's worse, is that we only have one token left. But I've noticed one game that gives out more tickets than all the others.", Benson said.
Then, it went to the Skeeze Ballz game.
"Skeeze Ballz.", Benson said.
"This will have to be a team effort. (points out the timer and the balls) The faster we go, the more chances to throw the balls we get. So I want everyone to line up, and when the balls drop-", Benson began as he pointed to both the timer and the balls.
Mordecai and Rigby laughed at this innuendo, earning Benson's facepalm.
"Ugh... when the game starts, you throw, and get back in line.", Benson said.
"No problem.", C.J. smirked.
"Good. Now let's roll!", Benson shouted
To start off, Benson inserted a token, and the game started. He started off by throwing the ball up the ramp, followed by Rigby, Mordecai, and C.J., who score 3,000, 5,000, 5,000, and 10,000 respectively. Skips and Mona then threw each of their balls, followed by Muscle Man, Hi Five Ghost, who scored higher scores of 10,000 and 15,000. Even Josh, Emily, and Candice took their turns, getting their scores of 5,000, 5,000, and 3,000. Eventually, the timer showed that there are five seconds left.
"Hurry!", Benson urged.
Rigby took another throw, but the ball bounced away. At this point, there are three seconds left, and 990,000 points scored.
"Come on, Mordecai, sink it!", Benson urged.
Soon, Mordecai rolled the ball up the ramp with two seconds left on the clock. The ball dangled on a 10,000 hole as the others gasped. The ball then fell in, totaling one million, with no time to spare. C.J. and the groundskeepers celebrated as the tickets started printing. Twenty minutes later, the tickets were still printing as the groundskeepers looked on, bored.
"Ahhh, this is taking forever...!", C.J. groaned.
When the tickets stopped printing, Benson dropped the tickets on the Prize Counter booth.
"One million tickets.", Benson said.
"What would you like?", Diego asked.
"We'll take the fuzzy dice.", Benson said.
C.J. and the groundskeepers cheered as Diego grabbed a pole with a hook.
"For Pops.", Benson said as Diego removed the lid with the hook, grabbed the dice, and then gave them to Benson.
"Yeah!"
"All right! For Pops.", Hi Five Ghost grinned.
"Fuzzy Dice for Pops!', Muscle Man chuckled.
"Wow...! I can't believe we actually did it. That was actually fun...! I can't thank you enough, Mordecai.", C.j. grinned.
"Hey, don't mention it.", Mordecai grinned.
"Now, we can give these to Pops.", Benson grinned.
However, having somehow come off the stage, along with the other animatronic band members, the bear robot grabbed the dice out of Benson's hand, shocking C.J. and the groundskeepers.
"Sorry, but you ain't giving nothing to nobody.", the Bear robot said.
As if that wasn't enough, the bear pulled out a remote, extended the antenna, and pressed the button, causing a car to fall from the ceiling after the support explodes, right onto the stage.
"Aw, what?!", Mordecai reacted.
"I KNEW IT! I KNEW YOU CREEPS WERE ALIVE! I KNEW WHAT I SAW!", CJ shouted, pointing at them.
"Yeah, you were right. But what are you gonna do about it now? You're still the same dumb teenager that got scared silly after seeing us. Hehehehehe. I still remember you freaking out after one of our shows. Hahahahahahahaha!" The leader said as he laughed.
"Hahahahahahahaha!" The other two animatronics laughed as they pointed at C.J.
But that was the last straw for the usually petrified C.J. She growled angrily as her skin turned dark grey like a dark cloud and lightning arced around her body, wiping the smirks off the animatronics.
"Well, that's not good.", the duck robot said.
"Were you just playing some kind of game?! IS THIS A GAME TO YOU?!", C.J. shouted as she turned into a storm cloud.
"Aw, nah, brah...", the Bear robot said.
C.J. roared as she makes it rain down in the Fun Fun Zone and created a strong wind, which destroyed some of the Fun Fun Zone.
"Aw, forget this! Let's bust outta this joint!", the Bear robot urged before he and the animatronics got in the car and drove off the stage and through the wall of the Fun Fun Zone as the furious storm cloud burst through the hole with a roar, going after them while the groundskeepers momentarily watched.
"Whoa...!", Candice spoke in awe.
"…Pardon my French, but WHAT THE HECK just happened?!", Emily shouted with her hands in the air.
"I think CJ's past trauma from those animatronics mixed with her anger from their mocking just turned her into a rampaging storm." Mona theorized.
"We gotta calm her down.", Mordecai said as he picked up C.J.'s clothes left behind when she changed in a fit of rage.
"But how?", Candice asked.
"Easy. Let's help her get 'em!", Mordecai shouted.
"WHOOO!", Muscle Man cried out.
The groundskeepers caught up to see C.J. roaring as she rained lightning down near the car, causing the car to bump into the golf cart, which was now in the street.
The Bear robot noticed this via the rear view mirror.
"Guys?!", C.J. asked.
"Just slow them down! We'll try to grab the dice while you're at it!", Mordecai urged, tossing C.J.'s clothes up to her.
This earned C.J.'s smile toward Mordecai and then a glare toward the animatronics with a growl. The chase continued onto a bridge as the animatronic named Louie looked back at the cart and then picked up a drum to throw it at the cart.
"Oh, no, you don't!", C.J. shouted, making the wind blow stronger and create a tornado that sucked both cars in.
Eventually, the drum was tossed out from the tornado and exploded on the road.
"Give us back the dice!", Mordecai shouted, ramming the side of the cart into the band's car twice, even in a tornado in midair.
"Give us...the...dice!", Muscle Man shouted before jumping off of the cart, onto the band's car.
Louie punched Muscle Man in the jaw. Weakly, he tried to reach for the dice, but was elbowed by the bird robot.
"Back off, creep!", the duck robot shouted before the bear robot opened the door as he was still driving, leaving Muscle Man dangling several feet above the road and squealing.
At the bridge, a truck was starting to approach the incoming tornado, shocking the driver. Muscle Man screamed at the sight of truck below.
"Oh, no!", C.J. said in worry.
Just as the truck was about to be sucked in, C.J. moved around the truck, sparing it as much of the tornado's pull as possible while Skips yanked Muscle Man off the door.
Back in the band's car, the bear robot laughed, looking at the dice as C.J. noticed that she was headed to a dock.
"That's...ENOUGH!", C.J. shouted, launching both cars out onto the deck with both drivers yelling out.
When they both landed, the cart was barely able to swerve and then stop while the car wasn't so lucky as the bear robot was having trouble with the brake.
"Stop the car!", the duck robot urged.
"I'm trying!", the Bear robot shouted.
"They're getting away!", Benson shouted in worry.
Mordecai grabbed the gear and started driving again.
"Through there!", Rigby urged.
Mordecai drove to the dock the band was heading to just as the bear robot looked ahead and saw a pile of barrels. The robot avoided the pile, but rammed the car into a streetlight. The car then burst into flames. They were unconscious for a moment before they woke up as C.J. then hung over above them. She gasped as, just as Louie saw that his cheek had been scarred and/or destroyed, the Fuzzy Dice was in danger of getting caught in the impending exploding.
"The dice!", C.J. gasped.
Hurriedly, she started returning to normal, going back into her clothes, just as she was also grabbing the dice.
"Got 'em!", C.J. shouted before getting off just as the bear robot woke up and saw her.
"Go, go, go!", the Bear robot ordered as he and the other robots waddled away from the burning car.
But seconds later, it exploded, knocking the trio to the ground just as C.J. jumped into a boat seat and the groundskeepers saw the explosion.
"What was that?!", Rigby asked.
Once they arrived at the dock, C.J. turned and saw the group arrive in a golf cart before getting off.
"Mordecai!", C.J. shouted.
"Are you okay?", Mordecai asked.
"Yeah. In fact, I'm even better.", C.J. said, holding up the Fuzzy Dice.
"You got the Fuzzy Dice!", Rigby said in excitement.
But when they heard the band groaning as they stood up, now fairly wounded, they turned to see them.
"It's over! We won them fair and square!", Mordecai said.
"There's no way we're lettin' you get away with these dice. Now give 'em to us and get out of the way before somebody gets hurt!", the Bear robot threatened.
"What could you creeps possibly want with those fuzzy dice?", C.J. asked.
"Well, ten years ago, we knocked over Bay City Jewelers, and made off with millions worth of uncut diamonds. Those diamonds are in those dice.", Louie replied, pointing to the dice in C.J.'s hands.
"Shut up, Louie!", the Bear Robot shouted, slapping him.
"I remember reading about that!", Emily said in shock.
"That was you?", Benson asked.
"Yeah, that's right. We've been laying low for ten long years waiting for the statute of limitations on Grand Theft Larceny to run out. And it was supposed to end tonight at midnight.", the Bear robot explained.
"So, you guys have been pretending to be normal robots while ducking the law all along?", C.J. asked with a glare.
"Mm hmm, that's right girlie. Until you clowns came along and ruined everything!", the duck robot replied.
"Can't we just have the dice without the diamonds?", Rigby asked.
"Yeah, that seems like a fair trade.", Candice added.
"It's too late. And you know too much.", the bear robot only responded.
"Mm-hmm.", the bird robot agreed.
"Come on, there's a kid right there with us!", Josh responded.
"Oh, yeah? Well, let me let you in on our secret: We! Hate! Kids!", the bear robot said, making Candice gasp dramatically.
"You monsters...!", Candice glared.
C.J. then looked to the water and then toward the two groups pitted against each other as the bear robot spoke.
"Like I said: give 'em back if you know what's good for ya.", the Bear robot threatened.
"Okay.", C.J. smirked before tossing them over to the groundskeepers before Muscle Man caught the dice.
Then, she turned to the water.
"Never thought I'd be taking a midnight swim, but... here goes nothing!", C.J. said to herself before diving into the water.
"Hey, give that back!", the Bear robot said before Muscle Man threw the dice to Skips, who passed it to Mona, who then threw it past the band, and to Rigby, who was running to catch them.
In the water, C.J. thought to herself as she swam away.
"Okay. This should be far enough.", C.J. thought to herself.
Then, she grunted and strained as she began to soak all the water in. As a result, C.J. began to swell and expand, starting with her hands. From there, she swelled even bigger and faster than before at the same spots as before.
"It's working! And it feels even better than I thought it would!", C.J. thought excitedly as she was quickly starting to outgrow her clothes, starting with her pants, all the way to her shirt, beginning to move upward out of them.
At the same time, at the surface, only Skips, Josh, Emily, and Mona noticed a whirlpool forming in the ocean.
"There's a whirlpool now?!", Josh asked in surprise.
"That's what I was gonna say!", Emily responded.
Just then, her shirt, shorts, and boots were flung out from the whirlpool onto the ground.
"What are you doing in there...?", Skips asked.
Underneath the water, C.J. moaned as she was already in a wider, blob-like state, somehow becoming less and less like a blob as she grew.
"Almost there...! I can feel myself growing as big as a whale...!", C.J. thought as she moaned before finally becoming a big storm cloud.
"There! That should be enough! These guys are definitely in for it now...!", C.J. thought with a smirk as she gave off some lightning sparks.
Meanwhile, the bear robot grew tired of the situation.
"Alright! No more games!", the Bear robot threatened, reaching into his jacket.
"No, don't!", Rigby shouted.
Suddenly, C.J. rose from the ocean waters, stopping the bear robot from going any further as the storm-like winds that had returned intensified along with heavy rain and some stray lightning bolt strikes.
"Hey, Fadbear!", C.J. sneered with a smirk, attracting the bear robot's attention. "You got a big storm comin'!"
Candice laughed giddily from seeing her so big.
"Seriously?! How'd she get even bigger than last time?!", Emily shouted.
"So, that's it. You're using your water retention to grow big enough to deliver the firepower to short 'em out.", Skips guessed.
"That's actually good thinking.", Mona said.
"Oh, this is just great! First, they steal our dice by 'winning it fair and square', then this scared little sissy of a girl grows a backbone and turns into a hurricane, and now, she's a flipping thunderstorm?! COULD THIS NIGHT GET ANY WORSE?!", the Bear robot shouted.
As if to answer, a light shone onto him.
"This is the FBI. You're surrounded!", an FBI agent shouted as the FBI helicopter, vehicles, and other agents were now present. "Get on the ground, now!"
"Ugh... Ask a stupid question...", the Bear robot sighed.
"It's the police! They're here!", C.J. shouted in surprise.
The pilot spoke to the agent as he packed heat with a sniper, laying on the ground, and loaded up.
"Targets are considered hostile, repeat, targets are considered hostile."
"Copy that, red leader.", the FBI sniper responded, aiming at the band.
"Uh, what do we do, boss?", Louie asked in worry.
"We do what we were made to do: show these folks a fun time.", the Bear robot responded calmly.
"Hm. Funny, I was thinking the exact same thing.", the duck robot responded before Louie chuckled excitedly.
"Well, then..., I guess it's showtime!", the Bear robot shouted before pulling out his gun.
"Gun!", the FBI agent shouted before the team shot the bear robot down.
Rigby ran to the cart amidst.
"Eat lead, sucker!", the duck robot shouted.
"Why don't you eat some hail? Or better yet, have a drink!", C.J. shouted, firing a torrent of water at the duck robot, causing her to begin to short circuit.
"What the...? Wh-wh-wh-wh-what did you do?!", the duck robot glared, stammering uncontrollably as sparks flew.
Taking advantage of the distraction, the gunmen shot the duck robot, causing her to fall off the dock and into a boat. Louie fired at the gunsmen, but not one bullet hit him.
"Looking hot here, Louie? Why don't you just cool down!", C.J. said.
Then, she splashed water down on Louie, making him freeze up and stammer before a man fired a rocket at Louie, hitting him in the belly. After becoming worriedly puzzled, Louie then blew up, along with the rocket. The bear robot, having survived his shots, picked up the pole and let out a war cry as the groundskeepers watched in horror.
"And you!", C.J. said, the lightning arcing around her body before she rained down both an outpour of rain and lightning on the bar, shocking the bear robot, who stammered as he suffered the consistent strike.
"You said you were made to show us a fun time, right? Well, guess what? you just succeeded!", C.J. quipped with a smirk.
It wasn't long before the strike finished and finally knocked him into a boat. The bear robot's head, now half torn, showing the metal, knocked a gear, which caused the boat to go across the ocean as the searchlight of a helicopter watches from above.
"Smoke 'em.", the pilot ordered.
As ordered, the man carrying a rocket launcher fired at the boat, which hit and destroyed the boat. The groundskeepers watched in shock as C.J. sighed, her dark gray skin turning back to a normal white, still in giant storm cloud form before hovering over to them as the stormy winds died down some to be little more than a breeze.
"Whew...! That was weird... Is everyone okay?", C.J. asked.
"Well, apart from what just happened, yeah.", Mordecai responded.
"I guess there are a couple of good things that happened to me today. One...! I finally got over my fear of animatronics. And two, we got the Fuzzy Dice for Pops. Overall, this turned out to be a really good day after all. Thanks for keeping your promise, Mordecai.", C.J. grinned as the storm cloud dispensed all the sea water from her system back into the ocean and then returned to normal, getting back into her clothes once again.
Mordecai made an "aw, shucks" noise in response.
"I'm just glad you're doing all right, C.J.", Mordecai grinned.
"Well, what are we waiting for? Let's celebrate!", Josh shouted.
Excitedly, the group jumped into the air and high-fived with her in a freeze-frame. Then, a closing montage began.
Play Simple Minds Music: "Don't You (Forget About Me)"
"Benson and the guys got the fuzzy dice after the FBI retrieved the uncut diamonds from them. The whereabouts of the Capicola Gang are currently unknown. Though there have been sightings reported all across the lower 48. Pops received the fuzzy dice for his birthday and loved them. So did Muscle Man. ...A little too much. C.J. no longer feared animatronics. But now, Candice hates them with a vengeance. Diego Montez quit his job at the Fun Fun Zone 3 1/2 weeks later...and became a multi-millionaire after patenting his ergonomic reaching hook."
Stop Simple Minds Music: "Don't You (Forget About Me)"
A/N: And that concludes the first part of the Capicola's rampage, the 2nd part sure to follow soon at some point. I'm sure you know what the 2nd part is, but for those who don't, the title starts with the letters for each of the 3 words, "S", "M", and "A". Apart from that, I'm not entirely sure when that will be posted. But I do know it'll be soon.
