I own nothing except the stuff I made up!


Doctor Noe rides again

It had been a few hours since seeing Mystery before everyone left the grotto and returned to the city. Kuro was bussing tables when he heard a few of the farmers nearby. "I heard there were some humans making camp not far from the city." Said one.

"And we've got the Gothano running around. It attacked Riki yesterday…." Said one of Riki's coworkers the bird yokai Tano.

"Do you think it's the end of days?" asked an older woman Yokai.

"NO! the Guard are here to stop Gothano! I'm sure they'll stop the humans too." Said Tano as Kuro thought about it. He knew of humans that would just squat anywhere if there was something to find. And what did they find recently? A narhawl monster with large teeth and tusks. He had to make sure it wasn't them.

"You really want to use yourself as bait!?" Leo sputtered to Frida as they stood outside the city.

"Yes, my Ninpo has corruption too. Not to the extent that Mikey's, but enough Big Mama had to help me train to harness it. Especially the anger I wrongly had, towards all of you. And I can channel it all together." Frida replied.

"So, you're thinking if you can channel enough of the negativity together you can bait out the Gothano." Satoshi replied.

"That's right." Frida replied.

"No." Leo said simply. "I hate this." He replied "What if something goes wrong! That thing isn't just thoughtless! It didn't just show me the end, it showed me my dead siblings! I swear that thing it is calculating."

"Yeah, what if it does get mad Frida duped it!" April added.

"We'll do it." Satoshi replied.

"AHHHH EXCUSE ME!?" Leo roared eyes wide as he stepped between them. "YOU ARE NOT JUST PUTTING MY SISTER ON A PLATTER!" he declared incredulously.

"It's her choice." Satoshi replied simply.

"Satoshi!" Slash gasped. "Leo's right we should think about this."

"She caused the war it's the least she could-"

"I caused the war!" Leo snapped.

"No Leo you didn't! If I hadn't been so desperate-" Frida began, when…

THWACK!

April had hit all three in the head with her bat while Slash curled up a little bit from the shock. Looking at the girl fearfully.

She glared at all of them. Pointing her bat at Leo. "You didn't mean to cause this!" switched to Frida. "Neither did you! And you!" she said to Satoshi grabbing one of his horns and pulling him over. "Are not using anyone as bait."

"April!" Frida snapped, making her let go of Satoshi. "This is my choice not yours! And why do either of you care! You don't trust me anyway!" Frida growled.

"That's doesn't mean we want you to go get yourself killed!" Leo snapped. "Despite what Asshole Magee here might tell you!" he added jabbing a thumb back at Satoshi.

"I've had enough of you!" Satoshi growled. "I am the leader of the group!"

"Why should I listen to someone who's willing to just throw my sister to the wolves!" Leo snapped. "Also

"Because I said it was okay!" Frida snapped. "This is my choice not yours! There are more important things here than me! And why do you care after everything I've done to you!"

"Because we're not a couple of heartless bastards." April argued shooting a glare at Satoshi who scowled. "Yes, we don't trust you entirely yet. But you've at least proven you're not gonna kill us in our sleep."

"This is the only way and there are bigger things here than you or me!" Frida growled. "Living in the mall I think about what I did to the subway you were living in and how I was quick to think you had done it but not her."

"She fooled dad for a while. Plus, I didn't like the subway anyway." Leo argued.

"That doesn't make what I did okay. I'm doing it whether either of you like it or not! Don't forget I'm the oldest Leo!"

"But I'm still Co-Leader!" Leo snapped. "And you have to listen to me!"

"Sorry, Leo," She replied turning away and crossing her arms.

"Frida!" Leo muttered.

Slash sighed giving a glare to Satoshi. "What if it was Mona we had to put on the chopping block."

That seemed to reach the Dragon Boy who gasped and looked regretful. There was suddenly a rustling in the bushes as something ran off as quickly as it could. Frida rushed over Mayhem poofing over and sniffing a footprint in the mud.

"That kind of looks like one of our footprints except it's webbed." Leo muttered. "This must be Venus' footprint."

"Was she listening?" April asked as Mayhem immediately took them back into town then saw Venus run off with something in her hands.

"VENUS!" Muscular shouted as they rushed over Satoshi gasping when he saw what she had.

"Senor Muscular Was that what I think it was?!" Satoshi gasped.

"Yes, it was," Muscular sighed handing them a piece of paper. "Venus hates fighting and arguing. And she also hates people being sad and angry."

"And she heard us fighting…." Frida muttered worriedly. Leo immediately opened the paper and read it.

"She wants us to go to some clearing near here?" Leo asked, Frida immediately took off a look of concern on her face.

"This wasn't supposed to happen!" She thought to herself.

X X X

Venus ran through the forest and looked around nervously. She waited for Frida and the others to get here. She was worried if maybe she should've asked and mentioned the guard needed the orb. Too late now, she really thought she had had thought things through better. She then heard rustling and talking in the forest ahead of her. She got scared gripping the orb tightly shivering a little.

Venus then suddenly felt a hand on her shoulder and shrieked swinging the arm with the orb in it as hard as she could. Bashing the one behind her which turned out to be a Coati like blob that crashed into the ground after the side of his face took the orb and her knuckles on full impact.

"Kuro!" Venus gasped kneeling beside him and helping him sit up. "Are you alright!? I didn't know it was you I'm sorry!"

"It's good…" he muttered rubbing his face then moving his tongue around to check for chipped teeth before standing up. "What are you doing out here."

"They were talking about baiting the Gothano out so they could kill it. Frida is determined to use herself as bait. But I don't want anyone to put themselves through that. Not after what it did t Leo and Riki. That's why I have this." She replied showing him the orb of Darkness.

"And this is gonna bring that monster out?" Kuro asked with an arched eyebrow.

"That's what I believe. If it is attracted to darkness negativity then this should work, and no one has to get hurt. But there are voices out there, strange ones….." She muttered nervously pointing out into the forest.

"That's not good there's rumors of humans close to the city. I'm scared it's some dangerous ones I used to know." Kuro replied.

"Dangerous!?" Venus gasped. Kuro shushed her and snuck over after climbing a little bit Venus watching from down below, she could see his fur stiffen slightly. "Kuro?"

He immediately jumped back down. "I was right we've gotta go!" Kuro said grabbing her hand and pulling her back to the city. However, something immediately sprung up from under them and trapped them in a large white net.

"Oh no!" Venus cried thrashing getting flash backs. "NO, NO. NO, NO!" she screamed. Kuro grabbed her shoulders.

"Vee! Vee it's okay! Breathe, I'm right here! It's not the poacher okay…." Kuro promised.

Venus held herself nodding worriedly. When she sniffed, she got distracted by the smell. "Why does it smell like mint?"

"It's tooth floss." Kuro muttered. "It's kind of a theme." He deadpanned.

"Well, well, well, what did our floss nets?" Noe asked coming out. He was a bald man with blue eyes in a doctor's jacket and a bald head. "One of those turtles and…." He said squinting at them before motioning to the men dressed as nurses to lower the net. Venus whimpered hiding behind Kuro as Noe looked right at him.

"Kuro is that you?" Noel asked.

"What if it is." Kuro grunted.

"Last I saw you. It was as you stormed out. Since we clearly didn't share the same passion of teeth." Noe said haughtily.

"I do have a passion for teeth. I just don't seek to rip them out of heads violently and/or illegally." Kuro clarified.

"What, so you would simply settle for merely imagining how the tooth looks. And staring at mere models!?" Noe asked before turning around to gush. "And have no appreciation for the tooth ripped from flesh and bone like every other visionless dentist?!" Noe asked while Kuro circled his finger by his head to Venus and put it away in time just as the man turned back around. "By the way. What's with this whole situation?" he asked gesturing to all of him. "Was it one of those big glowing mosquitoes I've heard about? Because I don't ever remember you being a dog lemur thing…" he said with an arched eyebrow.

"It's called a Coati." Venus muttered at him.

"Yes, well, whatever." Noe huffed, not paying much attention to her.

"What are you even doing down here?" Kuro growled at him.

Noe laughed. "What else would I be doing looking for rare exotic teeth for my collection! And I happen to know of a creature with a bunch of such teeth in a grotto not far from here."

Venus gasped. "Mystery!" she cried before covering her mouth worriedly, but it was too late.

"Well, well," Noe grinned at her as Kuro moved between them as much as they could. "Looks like we have a way to find the monster. Bring them with us."

"Yes sir!" The Tooth Fairies declared.

"You can't take her teeth! She needs those to eat!" Venus complained as they were tied up and forced to sit in the back of a jeep. "Without them she'll starve!" Venus whined.

"Seventy-two." Noe replied.

"Seventy-two!?" Venus said incredulously. "You keep count of those kind of protests!?"

"You'd be surprised how much people whine about that. So much so, I started keeping a list. 'They deserve to be free!' 'They have feelings too.' 'You'll scar them for life!' 'They have a name!' 'You can't just rip teeth out of heads!'" Noe recited pointed at Kuro practically pushing up his snout as he did so. Remembering that was one Kuro had said as the Coati mutant glared at him. "Yours is actually becoming one of my favorites dear." He said to Venus.

Venus groaned at this. "Kuro he's crazy!" she whined desperately.

"Why do you think I ditched him?" Kuro replied.

"Speaking of I think I'll have you make me a latte when we get to camp, I love the way you made them." Noe chipperly replied.

"And what makes you think I'd help you?" Kuro growled.

"I'll rip your little friends teeth out if you don't." Noe threatened making Venus shiver.

"Don't! Leave her be! The Monster in the lagoon is what you want not her!" Kuro snapped making Venus gasp in horror. "Wait Vee hold on!"

But it was too late she looked away, glaring and staring at the floor of the jeep. "How could you? You're selling her out?!"

"It's not like that!" Kuro protested. "She's not sapient or sentient I guess!? Mystery is just an animal!"

"Is worth really measured in capacity for thought?" Venus growled. "I used to be an animal too! What makes her life less than mine!?" Venus shouted.

Kuro sighed. "You're my friend. I only just met Mystery but no I don't want to sell her out! I but don't know what to do here Vee."

Venus sighed sadly. There wasn't much they could do.

X X X

"Okay here's a clearing but where's Venus?" Leo asked looking around. "She came in this direction, right?"

"Possibly but…." Satoshi muttered, kneeling down and looking at the ground. "there's something odd about placement of the ground brush. I'm also getting faint traces of mint here."

"Mint….wait-" Leo began when Mayhem barked. He had a worried look on his face as he lifted up the orb Venus had taken.

"The Orb's here but where's Vee?" April asked.

"I think the crazy dentist that tried to steal Raph's teeth might have taken her believe it or not." Leo noted.

"A dentist?" Satoshi asked surprised.

"I swear I'm kidding!" Leo replied.

"If you guys had just gone along with my plan Venus wouldn't be in danger right now!" Frida snapped. "This is what's going to happen! You're going to save her and I'm going to fight the Gothano!"

"By yourself?" Satoshi asked worriedly.

"Don't tell me your backing out now too! You wanted to do this just as much as I did!" Frida snapped.

Satoshi sighed. "It's easier to misplace anger than to confront it. You shouldn't have to do this if we have the orb. Risking your life because I held you and Leo responsible wasn't right. I'm sorry…." He muttered sadly.

"I am so glad your admitting your flaws." Leo declared.

"Don't push it." April growled warningly.

"Sorry." Leo muttered quickly. Frida turned away holding herself. "Look Venus kind of just did her own thing. She's her own turtle, so are you. You've made choices and now you're making better ones. Enough that April and I are beginning to trust you. Besides it's not like you had the best source of info."

"Frida do you really feel like you have to hurt to make up for what you did?" April asked worriedly.

"I do…" Frida whispered holding herself tighter.

"No, you don't!" Leo said. "If Big Mama taught you that then it's because of the doll comment."

"It's good you want to make up for your mistakes. But don't kill yourself doing it." Slash added before looking at Satoshi who sighed.

Frida smiled looking back at Satoshi. "We're both idiots, aren't we?"

"Yes," Satoshi sighed goodheartedly.

It was then the Gothano rushed over them they gasped. He looked conflicted, which made Slash smile, the leader he was proud to follow was back. It was then Leo spoke up.

"Satoshi, you and Slash go get that thing. We'll save Venus and catch up!" Leo replied.

"Got it, lead them well." Satoshi said as he and Slash ran off. Leo couldn't help but smile at this.

Satoshi pulled out the orb and threw it into the air above them. A sinister almost suffocating burst of miasma flew into the air. The Gothano immediately turned around and dove at them.

"Here it comes!" Satoshi warned to Slash.

The Gothano flew over them unleashing bursts of darkness that Satoshi cleared away with his blue fire breath. Slash growled at it already running to higher ground before jumping off and slashing his Axe Jishin. The Beast dodged out of the way before circling around to attack him.

Slash went to counterattack but the Gothano phased threw him. But Satoshi was ready landing a powerful slash on it making it shriek and fly up.

Meanwhile Muscular was sitting at the restaurant. He hummed worriedly. "They've been gone for a while. I can't help but shake a bad feeling…." He growled before jumping up and grabbing a bunch of Salsa and running out of the restaurant into the jungle.

"HANG ON NINOS I'M COOMMMMINNNGGGG!" he declared running with a large container of Sun Salsa and Sun Salsa products on his back in time magic to keep them fresh and good.

As Muscular rushed through the jungle he could suddenly hear grunting. Followed by an inhuman or even beastly hiss. Just something terrible. He rushed over to see Slash and Satoshi fighting the Gothano.

Slash snarled as he slammed at the ground bits of rock and earth, he swung his axe back and forth shooting out rocky torpedoes towards the slippery cloak monster as it ducked and weaved. Slash smirked however as he was trying to herd the monster to Satoshi. As it rushed towards him.

Slash jumped up with a large chop and swung down hard. The Gothano was hit with a screech. It managed to avoid Satoshi's sudden tail whip and flew up. Satoshi jumped up with Gunshin glowing bright and slashed as hard as he could at it.

As the Gothano hung in the air Satoshi roared and went to stab the monster, however it suddenly absorbed the aura from the orb they had used before. As if powering up then expanded as largely as it could a burst of darkness surged around the area. Letting out a horrifying shriek as it wrapped around Satoshi tightly.

"Satoshi!" Slash cried as he was blown back from the force it suddenly let out. And slammed hard into the rocks behind him.

X X X

Satoshi suddenly saw himself in a familiar room. He recognized it instantly. "No….not this!"

"Get away from him Bruce!" his mother snarled her long slender white body with a pale teal colored stomach. And robe. While Bruce a dark Red Dragon with a gold underbelly in a suit and white hair still having his tail and right eye stormed towards her.

"He's, mine bitch! And if you get in my way-"

She snarled and lunged at him. However, he quickly threw her off. Before she could recover Bruce had pulled out his sword and slashed across her chest. She gasped and fell to the ground.

"NO!" shouted Satoshi as he tried to run after her as he ignored the memory of his younger self being roughly pulled from the closet and tied up shrieking for his mother. The sound had woken his baby sister who began shrieking.

Satoshi tried to pick up his dead mother. Pure like a lily hence her name. stained with blood as the life fading from her, however the minute he touched her he was younger the sword of Gunshin in his hand.

He was that little boy who got the sword hours after his rescue. Reliving the memory as he marched quietly avoiding eye contact. Yokai were whispering and giving him glares. He could hear them.

"Why would the sword choose him?"

"It has to be a mistake."

"Just because he's descended from the first and second users doesn't mean he's worthy!"

"I can see that traitor Bruce in his eyes."

"How long till he strikes down his grandfather or sister?!"

Satoshi quietly ascended the stairs. He could see Lord Dregg's judgmental eyes. "You have questions?" Dregg asked.

"I thought if the sword chose me people would be proud." Satoshi said sadly. "But they hate me more than ever….Like I killed my mom! But I didn't!"

"Are you sure?" Dregg replied.

"Perhaps if you had surrendered yourself, she'd still be alive?" Dregg suggested.

Satoshi hung his head. "I….don't want…."

"If your going to live up to the standards your ancestor and Grandfather put forth as one of the five Sacred Guard. Then you've got to let your selfish desires go. They'll only corrupt that precious sword! The fact is. Just by existing you pose a threat to it.

"What how!?" Satoshi gasped.

"You're so much like your father. Too much in fact. One wrong step for you is a slippery slope. One temptation is all it would take for you to turn."

Satoshi felt himself hyperventilating until his mouth began to burn.

X X X

Immediately reality came back to Satoshi. He screamed, roaring up purple fire again before groaning and holding his stomach. "Why is healing so painful?" he groaned looking almost enviously at Slash who was currently helping himself to either his fifth or sixth sunrito. Or whatever they were called until Muscular had the sense to snatch it away.

"Easy boy! Your friends might need the healing power of the Sun Pepper! Speaking of which….where are they?"

X X X

Mayhem brought everyone up into the trees above their camp. So far all they really saw were the Tooth Fairies but no sign of Noe, Kuro or Venus. But there were tents around. So maybe they were in one of them?

"We need a plan." Frida muttered.

"How about a distraction!" Leo grinned as he jumped down and immediately swung his swords summoning portals that cut the tops of the large dental weapons off as he jumped down with a small twirl before winking with a couple of finger guns.

"You've been Portal chopped!" Leo happily replied. They dove at him but Leo laughed cartwheeling out of the way as April jumped down between the slider and the Tooth Fairies.

"APRILLLLL O'NEEEEEIIIIILLL!" she shouted with a mighty swing. "And Bat!" she declared knocking them both out as they landed in a heap. Frida with Mayhem on her shoulder jumped down next.

"Nice work!" Frida said impressed.

"Okay we gotta do this quick Mayhem you scope out the place!" Leo replied. Mayhem nodded and began poofing all over the place before landing on his head with a chirpy trill and pointed to a large tent Leo smelt coffee from.

Immediately the group rushed over with Leo sending the guards around the tent away with his portals as they entered. Inside they saw a small kitchenette with Kuro making a Latte and chained to the middle of the post with enough length to reach the counters.

"Kuro!" Frida cried. Immediately the Coati mutant turned and gasped.

"Guys! You found me!" Kuro shouted as April moved forward her bat glowing a bright green.

"Hold still and stick that thing out towards me as much as you can!" she instructed. Kuro nodded sticking his torso out to expose the ring as much as he could. With one well aimed swing April broke it off Kuro sucking in air with his stomach completely free again and exhaled in relief.

"Okay now where's Venus?" Leo asked Mayhem who in response hung his head and his ears drooped as he frowned shaking his head.

"She's not here, Noe took her to try and use as bait for Mystery." Kuro replied.

"That Narwhal mutant we saw?" Leo asked with an arched eyebrow.

"They must be heading up for the grotto!" Frida gasped. "Mayhem, can you take us there!?"

Mayhem nodded and poofed them all away.

X X X

As Satoshi, Slash and Muscular began running to try and find Leo's group they immediately saw something that made them skid to a halt and hide as a group of figures passed by climbing up the mountain. One of them was that Doctor Noe guy Raph had mentioned to them holding a latte was sipping. Leading a group of muscular dental nurses with large dental tools as weapons. In the middle was Venus being forced to walk with them tied and gagged with a black cloth tied tightly over her beak.

"Venus!" Slash and Muscular gasped together as Satoshi put his face in his hands. Muttering hateful things about himself to himself in Japanese.

"Did you forget that I know Japanese too?" Slash asked as Satoshi looked at him. He wasn't annoyed just sad.

"Why are you so convinced that the world is gonna end if you're not there to hold it?" Slash asked worriedly.

"I acted like him…..I messed one. He was right, one wrong move and that was it! Venus is in danger because of me! I put a civilian in danger!"

"Fuego, you're allowed to make mistakes." Muscular replied.

"No, I'm really not…" Satoshi muttered sadly curling up on himself as a light suddenly appeared above them. Jumping down were Mayhem, Leo, Frida, Kuro and April.

"Did you guys see-" Kuro began, when Slash cut him off.

"An evil dentist having taken Vee hostage, yes." He replied.

"I have to fix this!" Satoshi growled standing up.

"Then lets work together." Leo replied. "You can't be afraid to be human."

"But I'm not…" Satoshi replied before running away.

"Satoshi wait!" Slash called as everyone ran after him.

X X X

Noe entered the cave dragging Venus along despite her protests. He shoved her ahead she stumbled a bit but kept on her feet. She tied to keep quiet so Mystery wouldn't come but the water began to bubble like it had before. Immediately Venus let out many muffled pleas, but Mystery still rose up and looked at her curiously Venus looked guilty through her eyes as suddenly.

"GO TOOTH FAIRIES!" Noe shouted as they began charging at Mystery who thrashed having nowhere to go.

She was slashed at with dental hooks and grabbed by lassos that were now flying through the air. As Noe pulled Venus back with his free hand and watched grinning madly. However, one of the Tooth Fairies who had jumped up and slammed one of his scapels hard into Mystery's horn.

"NO, YOU IDIOT YOU'LL DAMAGE IT!" Noe shouted but it was too late a large chip appeared in the horn followed by a couple of cracks. Immediately Mystery let out a pained roar that was unlike anything they ever heard that echoed through out the mountain and Eldorado.

Immediately her eyes began to glow as a powerful gust of wind and rain began surging through the area. The sudden maelstrom caught the surprise of everyone who was climbing the mountain. Mayhem immediately teleported them to the grotto as Satoshi had just entered.

They could see Venus being held back as the tooth fairies began firing numbing darts at her but that only enraged her. Muscular looked outside.

"This is bad! She's making a typhoon that will wipe out the Sun Pepper crop and damage Eldorado!" Muscular gasped.

Kuro looked at the horn. "She's in pain!" Kuro muttered. "If I can fix her horn she might calm down."

"We'll have to give her some sun peppers too! They have healing properties, so it'll help her!" Frida added. "And we have to save Venus!"

"Okay Frida you get Venus, Muscle man guard the Sun peppers. Slash, April take out the tooth fairies and help Kuro get up there! Satoshi you're with me." Leo replied. Glancing over to see if of the Dragon boy would argue but he didn't he just nodded.

Immediately everyone jumped into action. Frida skidded down and knocked Noe away as he desperately tried to keep his latte from spilling. Frida immediately got between Venus and Noe, glaring at him with her deer horn knives out.

Satoshi and Leo soon joined her as Noe guzzled the rest of his latte crushed the cup against his head. Then got out a double-sided toothbrush with iron spikes at each end and spun it around before striking a pose where he motioned at them to come with a wave of his hand.

Satoshi and Leo pulled out their swords. Satoshi backflipped over him clashing his swords a bit as Leo charged swing from the front as Satoshi swung from the back. But Noe was quick to spin around and block both of those moves.

"Hey Noe! Ya know that latte?!" Kuro asked shouting at him.

Noe ducked and kicked at Satoshi knocking him back. "Kind of busy Kuro!"

"Oh you're gonna want to here this!" Kuro shouted gathering what he needed except for something on a polisher he clearly wanted. "dried Sun Pepper leaves are very good at brining out a nutty flavor to the point of hiding every other taste!"

"And I care why!?" Noe growled parrying his weapon against Satoshi and Leo who tried to portal behind him with a quick slash but ducked.

"Because I put enough sugar in your latte to kill a whale!" Kuro shouted. Immediately Noe screamed dropping his weapon.

"MY BEAUTIFUL TEEEEEEETHHH! RUIIINNNEEEEDDD!" he screamed. Immediately he started brushing and flossing desperately as Mayhem took the polisher and gave it to Kuro who put it on his back.

"I need more large dental tools to fix her horn." Kuro said to Mayhem who saluted.

Meanwhile, Slash and April were blocking against swings from the giant hooks and floss ropes that Slash cut down effortlessly with his axe. April did a flip as Mayhem grabbed some resin filling and teleported it to Kuro alongside a couple of the Tooth fairy dental hooks and mirrors.

A couple of the tooth fairies were about to jump Kuro when a blob of bright gold flew into his mouth. Immediately he turned bright red and began to sweat.

He began screaming and writhing in pain rolling on the ground as Kuro looked up and saw Muscular give him a thumbs up.

"You, thinking what I'm thinking?" April asked smirking at Slash who took a deep exhale before sniffling.

"It's for the greater good Slash…." He muttered sadly as Mayhem and April gave him a lidded annoyed look.

"Hey, Muscular pass us some salsa!" April shouted as Muscular threw them. April and Mayhem caught them and passed a couple to Frida who was fighting tooth fairies trying to keep Venus as bait. But she had slashed his weapons in half charging energy into her weapons. Then proceeded to grab the salsa cup and threw it into the mouth of the next guy before catching a large Burrito and holding on to it. With the Tooth fairy writhing in pain, she immediately took the opportunity to free Venus.

"Are you alright?" Frida asked.

"Yes, I'm fine….but April is a human?!" She asked worriedly watching April kick and punch at another tooth fairy before shoving a salsa cup in his mouth.

"Yeah, sorry we didn't tell you. But not all humans are evil! She's certainly not! But she is a bit dangerous."

"APRIL O'NEEEIIIIILLL!" she shouted sending a couple more flying with her bat.

"Kuro left these evil humans when he was a human because what they were doing was horrible. I think I can believe that." Venus assured Frida with a small smile. There was another roar as Mystery let out a pained enraged roar.

"Can you calm her down?" Frida asked.

"I'll try," Venus muttered as she ran up to Mystery. "Mystery! Please calm down! Let us help you!" She called to the writhing beast who snarled as she snarled at Venus glaring at her as Venus began to tear up in regret of being unable to stop it as Frida was ready to pull her away but kept her distance. Mystery seemed to soften seeing Venus almost understanding she never meant for this to happen.

Noe suddenly snarled and lunged at her. But Frida was very quick to get between them and knock him back. He pulled his toothbrush pole arm apart to make two swords as he rushed over swinging wildly at her as she blocked and landed a kick in his chest knocking him back before surging energy from her Ninpo into the ground and making him fly up before slamming back into the ground and seeing Kuro begin climbing up the back of Mystery who was starting to calm down the rain stopping outside.

"Those are my teeth!" Noe shouted activating his Pillsbury dough boy looking robot and slammed into Mystery causing her to thrash and whine in pain. As Noe prepared the drills on his battle suit he went to strike her down but Kuro managed to use his tail to reach over and pull the robot up. Noe stumbled back.

"We can't Mystery with him here!" Satoshi growled as Leo smirked getting an idea. Swinging himself in the air and focusing.

"HAAAACHIIIII MAAACHHIIIIII!" he shouted swinging his swords as much as he could and with a burst of blue light everyone except Noe and Leo disappeared.

"What did you do!?" Noe growled as Leo just smirked at him. Noe growled and went to stab him with his drill fist but Leo was quick to throw his sword and teleport away Noe coming after him. Leo saw a cliff in the other direction of him and smelt salt and got an idea.

"So how are the new cavities treating ya?" Leo asked.

Noe growled and ran at him. Only for Leo to keep teleporting out of the way as the fists changed to scalpels near the cliff Leo was trying to lead Noe too. "Ya know my brothers and sisters complain whenever they drink a coke, they can fill the sugar eating their teeth! My question to you is, if your so obsessed with your teeth how did you not notice sooner?!" Leo mocked.

Noe growled and jumped up to jump on him, but Leo teleported away as Noe rushed after him. Using a rocket at the back of the robot to quickly catch up to him and start pinning him over the edge of the cliff.

"Once I deal with you! I'll be going back to get those beautiful teeth! And the unique teeth of every one of the freaks in that town!" Noe snarled only to be engulfed by a blue light himself and realize he was off the edge of the cliff floating in mid air as Leo was leaning on one of his katana's and waved at him with a smug smile on his face.

Noe looked down to see there was nothing but a sheer drop to the water below. He looked horrified as he had the arm of his robot pull up a sign that said. "Oh Mouthwash…." Before it fell Noe screaming as it slammed into the water.

Leo watched for a couple of minutes before seeing Noe surface and start swimming to the small beach nearby. At which point Leo teleported to where he had sent everyone else.

X X X

Meanwhile Kuro was quickly pouring resin and filling mixture into Mystery's horn as Venus kept her calm. Leo had sent them to a beach at the south side of Eldorado. Where everyone else had gathered around to see. Once he had filled all the hole. Kuro began using a UV light to patch up the horn and harden the resin before polishing some of the rough edges.

"There that should do it!" he said as he jumped down. Venus then held up the Burrito with a bunch of Sun salsa on it as Leo returned. He gasped nervously as Mystery ate it. Everyone else watching nervously. However, Mystery let out a happy cry and clapped her flippers.

"Well, well, a girl after my own heart." Slash said happily.

"Yeah, and your cast iron mouth." April muttered.

Mystery then immediately dove into the water as some of the denizens began letting out whines of disappointment. Venus immediately turned.

"Leave her alone she has had a long rough day!" she declared. "She needs rest and she's very scared of everyone!" Everyone looked a bit taken aback by how personally Venus took this but with Muscular's help everyone dispersed.

Venus watched the water sadly. "I'm sure she'll come back. That's a better place for her anyway." Frida assured. Venus looked out onto the sunset.

"Yes, no one bother her again out there." There was suddenly a call to Venus they looked up to see Mystery smiling at her before jumping up and diving back into the water.

"I think she'll be back." April said with a smile as Venus perked up quite a bit.

"What I miss?" Leo asked finally, getting to the front of the crowd.

"Mystery's all fixed up and she's got a new home." April replied as they looked out to the ocean.

"But the Gothano's long gone. I made us fail the mission." Satoshi replied.

"We can't give up right?" Leo asked. "What do we do now?"
