73. Chapter 72

Chapter 72: DogDay Vs Baba Chops: Unknown Vengeance

It was another day. Bobby and CraftyCorn were dueling one another in Verygreen Park. Bobby was at 2000 Life Points and has Tearlaments Kitkallos and Kashtira Fenrir on her field while CraftyCorn had 1600 Life Points and has Ashura King on her field. It was CraftyCorn's turn.

"I just wanted to make sure that you're ok." Bobby said, concerned,

"Don't worry, I'm fine, Bobby." CraftyCorn said as she chuckled, "I never felt this fired up in a duel before…"

Bobby sighed in relief, but chuckled a bit as well.

"That's good…" She said, "Alright, let's see what else you got!"

CatNap appeared.

"Hey girls." He said,

"Hi CatNap!" CraftyCorn said, "Sorry, but I can't talk right now! I'm in the middle of a duel with Bobby!"

"Suit yourself."

CatNap then sat on a bench as he watched Bobby and CraftyCorn continue with their duel.

Baba meanwhile was walking when he saw CatNap across the street and in Verygreen Park. She gasped.

"Shit, he's already here?!" She said, "Damn it, what do I do?!"

Baba looked around.

"No signs of DogDay." She said as she sighed, "But there are signs of some of CatNap's friends, so I gotta make this work, huh?"

Later, CraftyCorn's The Weather Painter Rainbow attacked Bobby directly and drained the rest of her Life Points to 0, making CraftyCorn the winner of the duel.

"Oh, I lost." Bobby said, "Well, you can't always win."

"Thanks for the duel, Bobby!" CraftyCorn said, "I'm feeling inspired for my next little painting to show later!"

"Wow, it still feels good to have you back with us."

CatNap got up and smiled.

"So, what's going on with you two?" He asked,

"CatNap?" A voice said to him,

CatNap, Bobby and CraftyCorn turned to see Baba Chops. CatNap gasped and got surprised.

"Baba!" He said, "Wh-What the hell are you doing here?!"

"Wait, Baba Chops?" Bobby said, surprised, "We don't see eye to eye."

"Yeah…" CraftyCorn said, "What's going on?"

"Not much…" Baba replied, "But since CatNap is here alone, I kinda wanna tell y'all that–"

"--Ah-ha!" Another voice shouted, "I knew it!"

Everyone then turned to DogDay, who was hiding behind a tree, not in the brightest mood you thought he would always be in.

"DogDay?!" CatNap, Bobby and CraftyCorn all shouted,

"Shit!" Baba shouted, "He was spying on all of us, wasn't he?!"

"DogDay, what are you doing here?" Bobby wondered,

"Yeah, shouldn't you be helping Poppy out?" CatNap asked him,

"I already have this unsolved mystery solved right now!" DogDay replied as he pointed at Baba, "I know it was you, Baba!"

Baba was shocked.

"The fuck?!" She said, "What did I do?!"

"You were talking to CatNap two nights ago and were about to talk to the rest of my friends after sending your friends to talk to them all!" DogDay said, "I know damn well that you're setting this up for them to be kidnapped, just like you were! But those kidnappings were made by you just to set up another one! On us!"

A confused Baba Chops was scared and had no idea what to say. CatNap came up front to protect Baba and be face to face with his best friend, DogDay.

"She didn't do shit!" CatNap shouted, "Two nights ago, she told me the truth! The four critters that were kidnapped twice were four of her friends! And you made the rumors on who she is just to "protect me and the rest" when clearly, it made her life worse without even getting a chance to say hi to her!"

"Wh-What?!" DogDay said, "You're already defending her?!"

"How could you do this?! How could you LIE to us, especially me?!"

"I've only done it just to make sure none of us would ever sacrifice themselves again! You remember when CraftyCorn–"

CatNap then punched DogDay in the face.

"--DON'T BRING HER NAME INTO THIS!" He shouted, "THAT WAS 2 FUCKING YEARS AGO!"

"CatNap!" Bobby said, scared,

"Oh my God…" CraftyCorn said, concerned,

DogDay rubbed his face.

"Do you know what happened two years ago as well?" He asked him, "BABA!"

"I was bullied because of you!" Baba shouted with tears in her eyes, "One almost tried to kill me because of your bullshit rumors!"

"THIS IS TOO FAR!" CatNap shouted at DogDay, "ONLY TO PROTECT US AFTER SHE SACRIFICED HERSELF?! WHAT KIND OF "LEADER" ARE YOU SUPPOSED TO BE?!"

"Oh yeah? You wanna know what's also too far? THIS!"

DogDay then tackled CatNap, but CatNap was able to catch himself and DogDay. The two critters were fighting each other out. Punching, kicking, scratching each other until one is out of stamina. Baba, Bobby and CraftyCorn tried to separate them, but weren't strong enough to do so or have their emotions in tact.

KickinChicken and Hoppy meanwhile saw what was going on and went to separate them. KickinChicken got a hold of CatNap while Hoppy got a hold of DogDay. DogDay was breathing heavily with rage while CatNap tried to free himself from KickinChicken, but KickinChicken was able to keep his strength in tact.

"LET ME GO!" CatNap shouted with rage, "LET ME GO, DAMN IT!"

"The fuck's going on here?!" KickinChicken shouted,

"Why are you guys fighting?!" Hoppy shouted,

"Tell her that!" DogDay shouted as he pointed at Baba,

"DogDay, please!" Bobby said, emotional, "What's gotten into you all of a sudden?!"

"What made you point fingers at someone so innocent all of a sudden?!" CraftyCorn said, emotion,

"And who started this fighting fiasco?!" Hoppy shouted,

"HE DID!" CatNap and DogDay both shouted at each other,

Bubba and PickyPiggy appeared and were confused as hell.

"What the hell is going on here?!" Bubba shouted,

"Yeah, what in tarnation is happening?!" PickyPiggy shouted, "Did CatNap and DogDay just fight?!"

"If so, then why did they fight?!"

"HE LIED TO US ABOUT BABA!" CatNap shouted in response,

"I DIDN'T LIE ABOUT ANYTHING!" DogDay shouted in response, "SHE'S THE REASON BEHIND THE KIDNAPPINGS!"

"ENOUGH!" Baba shouted at the top of her lungs,

Everyone was shocked as Baba got their attention. She was breathing heavily and full of emotions. She then looked at DogDay.

"With your bullshit rumors, my life was in hell." She said, "And now, it's payback time."

Baba then got out her Duel Disk.

"Duel me." She said, "It doesn't matter who wins or loses, this duel will be all about who CatNap should be with until shit settles down. Do you accept my offer?"

DogDay sighed as he got out his Duel Disk.

"Whatever floats your boat." He said, "But just know after this duel, I will explain why I'm right."

"Sounds like you're still pointing fingers at her for no reason behind our backs." Hoppy said,

"AND YOU NEED TO SHUT YOUR ATTITUDE UP EVERY NOW AND THEN!" DogDay shouted at Hoppy's face while taking his spot,

"You can't yell at my face, punk!"

Hoppy then cracked her knuckles.

"Sounds like you want me to fuck you up!" She shouted as she tried to attack, but was stopped bt KickinChicken, "What the?!"

"Babe, calm down, please!" KickinChicken shouted,

Hoppy took a deep breath and shook her head no.

"Sorry…" She said, "This is so sudden…"

As everyone got into their places, CatNap was scratching his hair in frustration.

"The fuck did I get myself into?!" He said,

"Don't worry, we'll find a way to fix this." Bubba said,

"I doubt it…"

DogDay and Baba both activated their Duel Disks and shouted, "Duel!" to start their duel against each other for the first time.

Turn 1

DogDay: 4000

Baba Chops: 4000

Baba looked at her new hand of cards as it's no longer just Vendread cards.

"Ok, time to raise the dead." She said as she sets a monster, "I'll set a monster."

Baba then sets 2 cards face-down in her Spell and Trap Zone.

"And then I'll set 2 cards face-down and end my turn." She said,

"That's it?" DogDay wondered, "That's your way of getting "karma" back to me? Whatever."

DogDay then draws to start Turn 2. He looked at the card he drew and revealed it.

"I activate the effect of Supay, Duskwalker to start my turn!" He said as he discarded The Bystial Lubellion from his Hand to his Graveyard, "By discarding 1 card, I can Special Summon this card in Defense Position alongside Supay from my Deck!"

Supay, Duskwalker was Special Summoned onto the field from DogDay's hand in Defense Position with 1900 DEF Points while Supay was Special Summoned onto the field from DogDay's Deck in Defense Position with 100 DEF Points.

"Already a Synchro Summon, huh?" Baba wondered,

"Correct." DogDay said, "I tune my Level 1 Supay with my Level 5 Supay, Duskwalker!"

A Synchro Summon has started between Level 1 tuner Supay and Level 5 non-tuner Supay, Duskwalker.

"When the moon is out and full, harness it under the negativity around us!" DogDay chanted, "Synchro Summon!"

A familiar 4 headed dragon with a moon in the center of it emerges from the Synchro Summon.

"Join me under the twilight, Level 6, Moon Dragon Quilla!" DogDay shouted,

The Level 6 Synchro Monster, Moon Dragon Quilla was Synchro Summoned in Attack Position with 2500 ATK Points.

"Alright, time to battle!" DogDay shouted, "Moon Dragon Quilla will attack your set monster with Moonlight Beam!"

Moon Dragon Quilla then shot out a beam from its moon body at Baba's set monster. When the set monster was flipped face-up, it was the Tuner monster Scapeghost with only 0 DEF Points. Moon Dragon Quilla then destroyed the Scapeghost.

"Scapeghost?" Bubba wondered,

"So she's playing Zombies, huh?" PickyPiggy wondered, "Looks like that Scapeghost might have an effect…"

Baba then clenched one of her hooves.

"I activate Scapeghost's effect upon being flipped!" She said, "I can Special Summon any number of Black Sheep Tokens in Defense Position! So I'm bringing out 4 of them!"

4 Black Sheep Tokens were Special Summoned onto the field in Defense Position, all with 0 DEF Points each as well.

"Ok, different strategy then." DogDay said, "As usual, I'm still not trusting you."

Moon Dragon Quilla was tributed.

"Is he…" CraftyCorn said,

"Moon Dragon Quilla is a Level 6 DARK Dragon monster, isn't it?" CatNap said, "Which explains why he sent The Bystial Lubellion to the Graveyard under Supay, Duskwalker's effect."

A dragon emerges from glittering light.

"Reborn under the Branded to guide me to the light of truth!" DogDay chanted, "Come forth, The Bystial Lubellion!"

The Bystial Lubellion was Special Summoned onto the field from DogDay's Graveyard in Attack Position with 2500 ATK Points.

"Now for The Bystial Lubellion's effect, which lets me place a Branded Continuous Spell or Trap Card directly from my Deck to my side of the field." DogDay said as he does so, placing the Continuous Spell Branded Regained onto his field from his Deck, "And I will use one of the effects of Branded Regained right when the time comes."

DogDay then sets 2 cards in his Spell/Trap Zone.

"I set two, and pass the turn to you." He said,

"Alright, here I go." Baba said as she drew to start Turn 3 and looked at her hand of 3 now, "Hmm… I guess I gotta make due with the cards I have set."

Baba then revealed one of her face-down cards.

"I'll activate the Trap Card, Metaverse!" She said, "This lets me take a Field Spell from my Deck and I either add it to my hand or activate it!"

"You're gonna activate it, aren't you?" DogDay asked her,

"Damn right I am!"

Baba then revealed the Field Spell she wanted to activate and placed it in her Field Zone.

"And that will be my trusted Field Spell, Zombie World!" She shouted,

Zombie World was activated as an area full of purple and zombies roaming around was surrounding the critters. This sends a chill down CraftyCorn and Bobby.

"Scary…" CraftyCorn said,

Baba wasn't phased by her own Field Spell.

"While Zombie World is in my Field Zone, all monsters on the field and in the Graveyards become Zombie monsters." She said, "Plus, neither player can Tribute Summon monsters, unless one of us is Tribute Summoning a Zombie monster."

"Is this how you try and win?" DogDay wondered, "By creating Zombie monsters in this Duel?"

"Believe me, it works, and I'll prove it right now! Bring out the circuit that resurrects the darkness!"

A Link Circuit appeared.

"Oh, she's Link Summoning?!" KickinChicken said,

"What is she gonna Link Summon?" Bubba wondered,

"The requirements for this Link Summon are at least 2 monsters including a Zombie monster, so I'll be using 3 of my Black Sheep Tokens as Link Materials!" Baba shouted as 3 of her Black Sheep Tokens were sent to the Top, Bottom Left and Bottom Right Link Arrows, "Link the circuit!"

A young woman with dark red hair emerges.

"I Link Summon, Link-3, Vampire Fascinator!" Baba shouted,

"Vampire?!" KickinChicken shouted as he was surprised,

Link-3 Vampire Fascinator was Link Summoned in Attack Position with 2400 ATK Points.

"Well, guess she's not the only one with Vampires…" KickinChicken said, nervously, "Ha ha…"

"What's going on?" CatNap wondered,

"Long story."

"Oh, ok then."

Baba then pointed at DogDay.

"I activate the effect of Vampire Fascinator upon being Link Summoned!" She said, "Which lets me target a monster in your Graveyard and Special Summon it to my field in Defense Position!"

"Oh that's just great." DogDay said, "What are you gonna do? Special Summon my Moon Dragon Quilla to your field?"

Baba chuckled.

"Read my mind like a damn book." She replied, "So yes, Moon Dragon Quilla will be coming to me!"

Moon Dragon Quilla was brought back from the Graveyard and onto Baba's field in Defense Position with 2000 DEF Points.

"What will that achieve?" DogDay wondered,

"A little bit of this!" Baba replied as she Normal Summoned a monster, "I summon the Tuner monster, Uni-Zombie!"

Uni-Zombie was Normal Summoned in Attack Position with 1300 ATK Points.

"Oh, you can Synchro Summon as well." DogDay said,

"Damn right I can!" Baba said, "I'm tuning my Level 3 Uni-Zombie with my Level 1 Black Sheep Token and your Level 6 Moon Dragon Quilla!"

Another Synchro Summon has started, but this time with the Level 3 tuner Uni-Zombie, Level 1 non-tuner Black Sheep Token and Level 6 non-tuner Moon Dragon Quilla.

"Rule the undead lands with your never-ending cycle of death!" Baba chanted, "Synchro Summon!"

A dragon with blue flames emerges.

"Rule the dead, Level 10, Red-Eyes Zombie Dragon Lord!" Baba shouted,

The Level 10 Synchro Monster, Red-Eyes Zombie Dragon Lord was Synchro Summoned onto the field in Attack Position with 2800 ATK Points.

"Well, that looks insane!" Hoppy said,

"Ok, what does it do?" DogDay asked Baba,

"You'll find out later!" Baba replied back, "For now, time to battle!"

The Battle Phase started again.

"Red-Eyes Zombie Dragon Lord will attack your Bystial Lubellion!" Baba shouted, "Undead Fire Blast!"

Red-Eyes Zombie Dragon Lord then shot out a blue fire ball at The Bystial Lubellion, destroying it and dealing 300 points of damage to DogDay, draining his Life Points to 3700. DogDay didn't flinch from the attack.

"Now Vampire Fascinator will attack ya directly!" Baba said,

Vampire Fascinator giggled as she showed her fangs and went with the attack on DogDay. DogDay then quickly revealed a monster in his hand.

"I activate Bystial Druiswurm's effect from my hand!" He said, "By banishing a LIGHT or DARK monster from either Graveyards, I can Special Summon Druiswurm from my hand! And this can be activated during your turn if you control a monster!"

The Bystial Lubellion was banished from DogDay's Graveyard as Bystial Druiswurm was Special Summoned onto the field in Attack Position with 2500 ATK Points, stopping Vampire Fascinator from attacking.

"Great, only 100 ATK Points higher than Vampire Fascinator." Baba said,

"But wait, there's more!" DogDay said, "I activate Branded Regained current face up on my field!"

The Bystial Lubellion was returned to the bottom of DogDay's deck.

"When a LIGHT or DARK monster is banished, I can return that monster to the bottom of one of our Decks, and I get to draw a card." DogDay said as he does so,

"Of course." Baba said as she sighed and sets another card, "I guess I'll set another card and end my turn."

"My turn!"

DogDay draws to start Turn 4.

Turn 4

DogDay: 3700

Baba Chops: 4000

He looked at the card he drew.

"Do I just go for the Synchro Summon?" He said to himself as he looked at Baba's field, "Like her, I don't trust her face-down cards… I think I might have to use one of my face-down cards for this one!"

DogDay revealed one of his face-down cards.

"I activate the Quick-Play Spell, Cosmic Cyclone!" He said as his Life Points went down to 2700, "By paying 1000 of my Life Points, I can target 1 Spell or Trap Card on the field and banish it! So I'll banish one of your face-down cards in your Spell Trap Zone! One on the right!"

Cosmic Cyclone then banished one of Baba's face-down cards, which revealed to be the Trap Card, Magic Cylinder, which surprised everyone.

"Was that Magic Cylinder?!" CatNap shouted,

"She has that card as well?!" KickinChicken shouted,

"Oh, Magic Cylinder." DogDay said, "One card that affected a lot of friendships… You know, that card either saves a friendship, or destroys it."

CatNap and KickinChicken looked at each other like they're ashamed of what they've done.

"I knew I made the right choice!" DogDay said, "And I hope the other set card you have don't screw me either!"

DogDay then Normal Summon another monster.

"I summon the Tuner monster, The Bystial Aluber!" DogDay said,

"Whatever you're gonna do, you're probably not gonna Synchro Summon a Dragon monster since Zombie World is on the field." Baba said,

"Which is why I have my other face-down card! And wouldn't you believe it? It's another Quick-Play Spell! Only this time, it's Mystical Space Typhoon!"

Mystical Space Typhoon was revealed and activated.

"This simply destroyed a Spell or Trap Card on the field!" DogDay said, "So say goodbye to your Zombie World!"

Baba's Field Spell, Zombie World, was destroyed.

"Crap." She said, "That means his monsters are now back to being Dragon types…"

"With that Field Spell out of the way, I tune my Level 4 The Bystial Aluber with my Level 6 Bystial Druiswurm!"

Another Synchro Summon has started with the Level 4 tuner The Bystial Aluber and the Level 6 non-tuner Bystial Druiswurm.

"Etude a deadly melody to destroy everything in the wake of the apocalypse!" DogDay chanted, "Synchro Summon!"

A white dragon with multiple arms came out while being controlled under strings of purple magic.

"Bring forth the despair, Level 10, Bystial Dis Pater!" DogDay chanted,

Bystial Dis Pater was Synchro Summoned in Attack Position with 3500 ATK Points.

"Shit." Baba said,

"But wait, I activate Bystial Druiswurm's effect from my Graveyard!" DogDay said, "When being sent there from the field, I can target a Special Summoned monster you control and send it to the Graveyard! So your Red-Eyes Zombie Dragon Lord will be sent there!"

"Not if I activate my Zombie Dragon Lord's effect first! During your turn, I can Special Summon another Zombie monster from my Graveyard!"

"Not happening! I activate the effect of my Bystial Dis Pater!"

"What?! It has an effect?!"

"When you activate a monster effect, I can shuffle a banished card back into one of our Decks! And since I'm shuffling back your Magic Cylinder, I can negate your Red-Eyes Zombie Dragon Lord's effect!"

Magic Cylinder was shuffled back into Baba's Deck under Bystial Dis Pater's effect, negating Red-Eyes Zombie Dragon Lord's effect.

"Double shit." Baba said,

"And now, Bystial Druiswurm will carry on with sending your dragon to the Graveyard!" DogDay said, "So much for being a lord of the undead!"

Red-Eyes Zombie Dragon Lord was sent to the Graveyard under Bystial Druiswurm's effect.

"Triple shit!" Baba said,

"Make that quadruple shit as I go into the Battle Phase!" DogDay said,

The Battle Phase started again.

"Bystial Dis Pater will attack your Vampire Fascinator!" DogDay shouted, "Branded Bystial Blast!"

Bystial Dis Pater roared as it shot out purple flames at Vampire Fascinator. Baba chuckled.

"I knew you didn't destroy the other set card I have!" She said, "In fact, it's the one that I set at the start of this duel!"

"Don't tell me…" DogDay said,

"I activate the Counter Trap, Negate Attack!"

Negate Attack was activated.

"I knew it!" DogDay shouted,

"Negate Attack negates your Bystial Dis Pater's attack and ends the Battle Phase!" Baba said,

The Battle Phase ended as DogDay was left there, silent.

"No… I can still keep going." He said, "No worries, I have a monster with high ATK Points protecting me. I'm good. I end my turn."

"Ending your turn?" Baba said, "...Ok."

Baba then draws to start Turn 5.

Turn 5

DogDay: 2700

Baba Chops: 4000

Baba looked at the card she drew and smiled.

"Well, ain't this a treat?" She said as she revealed the card she drew, "The Spell Card, Terraforming!"

"Terraforming!?" Bobby said, shocked,

"This lets me add a Field Spell from my Deck to my Hand!"

"Wait, don't tell me you're gonna…" DogDay said, "No! You have another Zombie World, don't you?! What do you need it for anyways?!"

Baba then adds another copy of Zombie World from her Deck to her Hand under the effect of Terraforming and then activates it in her Field Zone.

"Nothing to stop ya." Baba replied, "But I thought it would be nice to have that in my way."

"Great." DogDay said, annoyed,

"Alright, time for Vampire Fascinator to activate her other effect!"

"She has another effect?!"

"By tributing a Vampire monster, I can take control of one of your monsters until the end of this turn!"

"What?!"

Vampire Fascinator was tributed.

"Well, since Vampire Fascinator is the only Vampire monster I control, I can tribute it and take control of your Bystial Dis Pater!" Baba said,

Bystial Dis Pater was then seducted by Vampire Fascinator's powers to be on Baba's side of the field.

"Dis Pater…" DogDay said,

"Well, you got no cards left on the field." Baba said, "Unless you have something up your sleeve."

DogDay looked at the only card he had in his hand, being the Spell Card, Allure Of Darkness.

"Damn it!" He said,

"I'll take that as a no!" Baba said, "Time for Battle!"

The Battle Phase started one more time.

"Bystial Dis Pater will attack you directly and end this damn duel!" Baba said, "What did ya say its attack was? Oh yeah, Branded Bystial Blast!"

Bystial Dis Pater then shot out purple flames at DogDay, dealing enough points of damage to drain his Life Points to 0, making Baba Chops the winner of the Duel. DogDay braced himself from the attack and didn't even flinch during and after the attack. Baba sighed heavily.

"Thank God I won that duel…" She said as she looked at DogDay's copy of Bystial Dis Pater, "But I believe the damage was already done…"

DogDay then approached Baba and snatched back his copy of Bystial Dis Pater off of Baba's hoof.

"You know what?" DogDay said, "I don't care."

DogDay then walked back to where he was.

"I'm still doubling done on my suspicions on you, Baba." He said, "Once I get in touch with Poppy, I'll be sure to settle this mystery against you."

"And by framing me over something that I've NEVER done?!" Baba shouted, "You're outrageous!"

"The only one who's outrageous is you!"

"DogDay, just shut up for once, damn it!" CatNap shouted,

CatNap was seen up and with the face, stating that he's had enough. He took a deep breath before explaining.

"...She's right." He said, "And you wanna know why?"

CatNap then walked over to Baba and looked at her with a calm look in his eyes.

"Because I understand her pain." He said, "The same way you and I understood our pain at each other, DogDay."

DogDay sighed as he then rolled his eyes.

"What else could I expect from you, CatNap." He said as he turned around and looked back at CatNap, "If that's how you want this to be, then don't even think about coming back home."

DogDay then walked away.

"DogDay, wait!" Bobby said as she tried to stop him by calling his name, but DogDay didn't bother to listen as he continued to walk away, "No, not again! Why does this always happen to us in our friend group?!"

Bobby then walked away to catch up to DogDay.

"Bobby, wait!" CraftyCorn said, "Even when I'm back, we just can't always have sunshines and rainbows…"

CraftyCorn then walked away to try and catch up to Bobby.

"Crafty, wait!" Bubba said, but stopped as he looked at her, "Huh, I've never seen her so serious before… But still, what are we gonna do?"

CatNap cleared his throat after sighing heavily again.

"I'm sorry guys…" He said,

"No, it's not your fault…" Hoppy said, "Shit happens, I guess…"

Bubba turned to CatNap.

"Why don't you separate yourself from DogDay for now?" He asked him, "It's for the best."

"You're right, I should." CatNap said as he turned to Baba, "Can you take me back to your place?"

"I suppose I should…" Baba replied, "I mean, I am from Sunshine Valley, so…"

"Hey, CatNap, ya sure you're gonna be fine in Sunshine Valley?" PickyPiggy asked her,

"Yeah, me and Hoppy ain't gonna be here with ya this time…" KickinChicken said,

"Don't worry, I'll be fine." CatNap replied, "And thanks."

"Right, come on." Baba said, "Let's take a bus there."

"Alright, lead the way."

CatNap and Baba both walked out of Verygreen Park to be on their way to Sunshine Valley, which is where Baba lived.

"And there they go…" Bubba said as he sighed, "One of us had to check on Crafty…"

Poe appeared.

"Hey, I saw a duel going off." They said, "What did I miss?"

Bubba turned to Poe.

"Oh, it's you." He said, "Poe, isn't it?"

"Yes." Poe replied as they straightened their glasses,

"Ok, we need your help for Crafty while one of us helps out Bobby."

"Go on, I'm listening."
