The Magical World Of No Return Remake

Chapter 25

Shopping On Rodeo Drive

Our friends our soon escorted to the Royal Swimming pool, where Princess Erika’s favorite Pink Spinner Dolphin, Sammy was waiting.

Princess Erika: Okay, this pool will take you out of here, and help you back to the surface.
One of the steam boats passes over here to return to Grand Bay Lake really soon, so you guys should be good to board once you hit the surface.

Manaka: Cam, your magic band should cover the cost of boarding the boat.

Cam: Thanks!!!!

Miuna: So, it’s 10:50 now, so I think we should leave here for our quest around 2:00 O-Clock!!!!

Troy: 2:00 sounds perfect!!!!

Sayu: We’ll have the yacht ready to go at the boating dock by Main Street by then!!!!

Miuna: Mind if we take your cardigan, socks, shoes, hair scrunchy, fake eye-lashes, bow, and tiara before you escort our guests to the surface my lady?

Princess Erika: That would be great thank you!!!!

Princess Erika then takes off her fake eye lashes, removes her hair bow and tiara, takes off her socks and shoes, and lets her hair down before handing her things to Miuna and Sayu.

Manaka: We’ll put these in your item storage for when you need them sweetie!!!!

Princess Erika: Thank you!!!!

Cam: Alrighty!!!! Time to get in!!!!

As Princess Erika hops on Sammy’s back, everyone then climbs in Herbie before Herbie drives into the pool, but he forgets to roll up his windows causing water to pour into his cabin.

Cam: WAHT????!!!!!

Carla: WHY ARE WE GETTING WATER IN HERE????!!!!!

Johnny 5: HERBIE DID YOU FORGET TO ROLL UP THE WINDOWS AGAIN????!!!!!!

Wendy: Good thing we’re in our swimsuits!!!!

Chelia: Otherwise it would suck!!!!!

Troy: THANK GOD IT’S NOT FAR TO THE SURFACE!!!!!

Cam: UGH-OH BOY!!!! YOU COULD HAVE AT LEAST ROLLED UP THE WINDOWS HERBIE!!!!!!

Princess Erika: *GIGGLES AND BURSTS OUT LAUGHING* WHOOPS!!!! LOOKS LIKE EVEN LIVING CARS MAKE MISTAKES!!!!!

Sammy and Princess Erika dive down into the pool, and Herbie follows.
They soon swim up to the surface of the water, and the boat soon comes into view just as Princess Erika and Sammy pop out of the water.

Princess Erika: Are you guys okay???!!!!!

Johnny 5 then opens up Herbie’s ragtop sunroof, and pops his head out of the water.

https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=SISDQTXxHs8

Johnny 5: Do you guys see anything?..................

There was no answer…………….

Johnny 5: I didn’t think so????!!!!!

Cam: WHICH WAAAAAAAAAAAAAAYYYYYYYY?????????!!!!!!!!

Princess Erika: Follow me, I’ll take you there!!!!

Johnny 5: Right!!!!............................Now left!!!!!!

Herbie then lines up parallel with the boat before extending out his retractable antenna, unlocks the boat's side gate, and opens it up.
He then raises his 2 front wheels out of the water, and drives onto the boat’s deck as Cam and Troy pop up out of Herbie’s rag top sunroom.

Cam: *Coughs out water* UGH!!!!

Herbie then opens his rear engine cover along with his doors, and drains all the water out of his cabin and engine compartment before everyone gets out.

Princess Erika: *Giggles* That was kinda cute!!!!!

Troy: UGH!!!!!! I AM WENT………………….

Cam: ………………NOT FUNNY!!!!!!!!!!

All the girls busted out laughing including Sammy the dolphin………….

Wendy, Chelia, Carla, & Erika: *BUST OUT LAUGHING*

Princess Erika: THAT IS A REALLY GOOD ONE!!!!! LOL!!!!!!

Wendy: YOU’RE RIGHT IT’S NOT FUNNY CAM; IT’S ACTUALLY……………

Chelia: IT’S DOWN RIGHT HILARIOUS!!!!!!

Carla: JUST THE LOOK ON YOU GUY’S FACES IS PRICELESS!!!!!

Cam: HEY!!!!!! YOU GIRLS WOULDN’T BE SO HAPPY IF YOU GOT BRIAN HEARTHED IN NORMAL CLOTHES!!!!!!

Troy: WHO WAS BRIAN HEARTH AGAIN????!!!!

Cam: An idiot hostler in Durango who couldn’t lower a water tower’s spout, or use a fire hose without DOUSING THE ENGINE CREWS!!!!!! I’VE BEEN DOUSED BY THAT IDIOT WHILE IN THE CAB MORE TIMES THAN I’D CARE TO COUNT!!!!!

Wendy: You should have worn your swimsuits!!!!! LOL!!!!!

Princess Erika: You guys are weird!!!! But I like you!!!!

Herbie then shakes himself off to get as much water off of him as possible just like a dog would…………..

Troy: UGGGGHHHH!!!!!!

Cam: HERBIE????!!!!!!

Princess Erika: *LAUGHING REALLY HARD* You’re already wet, so what harm’s a little more water!!!!!! LOL!!!!

Cam: You do make a good point.

Princess Erika: Anyways, this is as far as I can go for now, but please promise me one thing?

Cam: Okay?

Princess Erika: Promise me you’ll all return safely…………okay??!!!

Cam: You have my word!!!!

Troy: You can count on us!!!!!

Wendy: It’s a promise!!!!

Chelia: Most definitely!!!!

Carla: Absolutely!!!!

Herbie: BEEP, BEEP!!!!

Johnny 5: Of course your highness!!!!

Wendy then leans out over the side of the boat, and extends her pinky, and Princess Erika hooks her pinky with Wendy’s.

Princess Erika: Remember, 1000 needles if you lie!!! *Giggles*

Wendy: How can I forget???!!!!! *Giggles*

Wendy and Princess Erika then release their pinkies from one another while the boat steams on down Sapphire Bay as everyone waves good bye.

Wendy: GOOD BYE ERIKA!!!!!

Chelia: WE’LL SEE YOU WHEN WE GET BACK!!!!

Cam: WE WILL COME BACK SAFELY!!!!! YOU HAVE MY WORD!!!!!

Troy: WE WON’T LET YOU DOWN PRINCESS!!!!

Carla: WE’LL LET YOU KNOW AS SOON AS WE’RE BACK!!!!

Herbie: BEEP, BEEP!!!!

Johnny 5: ALWAYS HAPPY TO BE OF SERVICE!!!!!

Princess Erika: GOOD BYE EVERYONE!!!!!! BE SAFE ON YOUR QUEST!!!!!
AND CAM..................................................I LOVE YOU!!!!!!!! *GIGGLES*

Princess Erika then blows a kiss at Cam which immediately causes Wendy to frown at him out of jealousy.

Wendy: ALRIGHT!!!! WHAT KIND OF GAME DID YOU 2 PULL WHEN SHE KISSED YOU????!!!!!

Cam: Hey, it’s not like that!!!!! Where I come from she’s……………….

Troy: You have nothing to worry about because she’s actually from our world, and is Cam’s and my little sister!!!!!

Cam: I've been telling you that she's my little sister over and over again, so there's no cause for concern????!!!!

Troy: Once she regains her memory, she won’t think twice of pulling a stunt like that again.

Cam: Yeah, we maybe best friends back at home as well as siblings, but she’d never think of doing a thing like that!!!! Besides she actually likes someone back at home in our world anyways. I believe his name is Daniel and he's 15 in his Sophomore year of high school!!! WAY out of her league!!!!! LOL!!!!

Wendy: I better not catch you pulling that kind of trick again!!!!! Because I’ll never forgive you if it happens again!!!! -_-

Cam: But she pushed herself on me; It’s not my fault!!!! And we may have a complex relationship at home, but NOTHING like the stunt that she just pulled on me!!!!!

Troy: Don’t worry about it Cam, girls will always blame you for things like this, even when it’s not your fault!!!! It’s just hard wired into their DNA!!!!

The boat soon steams off into the distance as Princess Erika continues waving good-bye and blowing kisses.

Princess Erika: I sure hope they make it home safely Sammy!!!! Especially Cam!!!! If Wendy or Princess Mackenzie think they have claim on him, then they have another thing coming!!!! Also that kiss was not just a game; I meant it!!!! You can't mess with a little girl's heart!!! *Giggles*
Anyways, let’s go back down under water, and say hello to more of underwater friends.

Princess Erika and Sammy dive back down underwater with the boat now nearly out of site.
Our friends are soon greeted by one of the boat crew’s stewards.
Steward: Good morning folks!!!! May I see your tickets or boarding pass please?

Cam: Right here on the Magic Band!!!!

The Steward then scans Cam’s magic band, and it checks out no problem!!!!

Steward: Alright!!!! There are refreshments and snacks being served in the bar on the second deck, and if you’d like a better view of everything, please feel free to go up to the top deck. Also there are restrooms located near the stern of the second deck.
As us if you need anything, enjoy your cruise, and have a Magical Day.

Everyone: Thank you, will do!!!!

Cam: Now that I think about it, I will go use the restroom to put on a change of clothes.

Troy: Good idea, I’ll join you!!!!

Carla: You know what, we should do the same!!!

Wendy: Good idea!!!!

Chelia: I’m with you!!!!

Johnny 5: Lets go under the second deck and enjoy some shade Herbie!!!!

Herbie: BEEP, BEEP!!!!

Our friends make their way up to the second deck and all take turns changing with Cam being the first one out, and Troy being right on his tail.
It isn’t long until Carla’s out of the bathroom and fully changed back into her regular school uniform like clothes.

Carla: That’s much better!!!!

Cam: Got that right!!!!

Troy: It is not funny walking around in wet clothes!!!!

Carla: Well you 2 should have packed your bathing suits, but I do agree with you.

Troy: Anyways, lets go get a drink, I’m getting kinda thirsty.

Cam: Sounds like a good idea, then lets head up to the top deck.

Carla: Sounds good to me!!!! The girls are taking their sweet time, and they can take care of themselves.

Cam, Troy, and Carla then go to the bar and order drinks before making their way up to the very front of the top deck.
It’s not long until both Wendy and Chelia are changed back into their normal clothes, and join Cam, Troy, and Carla up on top deck.

Wendy: WOW!!!! This view’s amazing!!!!

Chelia: It sure is!!!!!

Coming into view the Richard Irvine Steamboat steams towards the Admiral Joe Flower and the captain gives one VERY long blast on the whistle followed by 2 short blasts before the Captain of the Admiral Joe Flower Steamboat gives the same response with a…………….

WHOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOO, WHOOO, WHOOOO!!!!!

Cam: AWESOME!!!!!

Troy: Looks like the other ship is en-route to Isla Nublar while we return home!!!!

Carla: I can’t help notice the difference in the large smoke stacks!!!

Cam: Now that I think about it, this one uses 2 large low pressure exhaust smoke stacks for the firebox, and the other ship uses only one.
Also the large paddle wheel on the stern on this one is red, while it’s a natural wood stain on the other.

Troy: It’s pretty neat to see the differences in the 2!!!!

Wendy: I think they’re both beautiful!!!

Captain Will: HEY YOU GUYS!!!! Come up here to the wheelhouse!!!!

Cam: Are you sure???!!!!

Captain Will: Yeah!!!! Come on in!!!! My chief Steward Alejandra will escort you!!!

Alejandra: Absolutely, now come this way!!!!

Chief steward Alejandra guides our friends towards the captain’s quarters, and up to the wheelhouse where Captain Will was waiting.

Captain Will: Hey guys!!!! Welcome to the wheel house!!!!

Cam: Thanks for inviting us up here!!!

Wendy: Yeah, this is so AMAZING!!!!

Chelia: My Gosh!!!! I wouldn’t have thought we’d get invited here!!!!

Carla: I really appreciate this, given that the girls haven’t really explored much in their lives, so they’re now finally getting the chance to experience new things!!!!

Troy: Hey, I never say no to being invited to places off limits to the public!!!!

Captain Will: LOL!!!! Hey, that’s a good point there!!!!
I saw you guys up at the front of the top deck, and it seemed you were enjoying yourselves when you noticed our sister boat, so I figured I’d invite you in!!!

Cam: Well we really appreciate it!!!

Captain Will: My name’s Will by the way!!!

Cam: Nice to meet you, I’m Camaro Von Ludwig, but everyone calls me Cam.

Troy: I’m his twin brother Troy.

Captain Will: It’s very hard to tell you apart since you’re both identical!!!

Cam & Troy: We get that A LOT!!!!

Cam: We have A LOT of the same tastes and talents, but our hobbies are different as are some of our personality traits.

Troy: Once getting to know us on a personal level, it becomes more obvious on who’s who.

Captain Will: That’s awesome!!!! I NEVER have twins up here, let alone have I ever seen identical twins, so this is AWESOME!!!!!

Chelia: Nice to meet you, I’m Chelia Blendy, and this is my best friend Wendy Marvell.

Wendy: It’s really an honor to meet you!!!!

Captain Will: And who’s this cute girl???!!!!

Chelia: That’s our good friend and Guardian Carla!!!!

Captain Will: Nice to meet you!!!! I REALLY love the cat ears and tail!!!

Carla: *Blushes Bright Pink* Thanks!!!!

Chelia: OH MY GOSH!!!! CARLA YOU BLUSHED!!!!!

Wendy: THAT IS SO CUTE!!!!!!

Carla: PLEASE TRY NOT TO MAKE A BIG DEAL OF IT!!!!

Cam & Troy: *Snicker* It happens!!!! LOL!!!!

Carla: HEY, QUIT LAUGHING YOU TOO!!!!

Wendy: It’s very unusual seeing you this shy Carla!!!!!

Cam: Anyways, we have a few questions to ask if you don’t mind?

Captain Will: Sure, go right a head!!!!

Cam: Is this ship full sized or is it a 5/8th scale to match the smaller sized buildings and narrow gauge train?

Captain Will: YOU’RE SMART!!!! This is indeed a 5/8th scale ship as is the sister ship!!!! They’re both close to around 200 tons in weight, burn bio-diesel just like the steam trains, are fired by computers, and are powered by 2 steam cylinders located on the stern that move the massive paddle wheel.
We have an engineer who checks on the boiler and steam engines, and also gets us moving. I alert him through these buttons as well as by radio, and I have a monitor that checks to make sure he’s doing his job correctly.
I also have a digital boiler pressure gauge up here, which lets me know that our boiler pressure is where it should be.
Right now we’re at 110 PSI, and that is PLENTY!!!! Anywhere above 120, and the safety valves will pop, and when that happens, the Mapo will trigger the emergency fuel shut off, and put out the fire in the firebox. Anywhere over 120 puts too much stress on the steam boiler, but thankfully our computers are pretty much on top of things. However, from time to time, they malfunction, and the we have to dump the boiler manually sometimes.

Cam: That makes sense.

Captain Will: You can also see that I have a digital speedometer, and unlike a speedometer in a car or like those on the trains, this goes by knots instead of miles per hour, and right now I have us going at 22 knots, which is a nice safe speed that’s not too hard on the engines.

Troy: This is awesome!!!!

Wendy: I am COMPLETELY blown away!!!!

Chelia: Same here!!!!

Carla: Very amazing………….

Cam soon spots Roger E. Broggie Number #7 out of the corner of his eye as she steams out of the diorama tunnel and along the viaduct that hugs the wall of the Bayou Rose Restaurant.

Cam: AWESOME!!!! There’s the train!!!!

Troy: It’s one of the trains we were on last night too!!!!!

Captain Will: AWESOME!!!! Which trains were you on?

Cam: We were on the Roger E. Broggie Number #7 from Main Street to Sapphire Pier in order to get to the viewing area for Fantasmic’s World Of Color & Earth Illuminations On The Rivers Of Light, and to take us back we were on Ward Kimball Number #5.

Captain Will: THAT’S AWESOME!!!! I LOVE THE TRAINS HERE!!!!!

Cam: So do I!!!!

Troy: Cam’s a HUGE train fanatic!!!! You talk about em, and there’s no way Cam will shut up about em!!!!

Captain Will: SAME HERE!!!! LOL!!!!

The engineer on the Roger E. Broggie gave one Very Long blasts followed by 2 short blasts on the whistle with a WHOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOO, WHOOO, WHOOO!!!!!

Cam: Mind if I respond to that?

Captain Will: Go right ahead!!!

https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=JAjAANKpG34
https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=a80Kvo3WEgo

Cam then tugs on the whistle chord and responds with a…………………

WHOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOO, WHOOO, WHOOO!!!!!

The engineer on the Roger E. Broggie then responds by blowing shave and a hair cut on the whistle with a………….


WHOOOOOOOOOOO, WHOOOOOOOOOOOO, WHOOO, WHOOOOOOO, WHOOOOOOO!!!!!!

Cam then responds by blowing 2 bits with a…………..

WHOOO, WHOOO!!!!!

The engineer on the Roger E. Broggie locomotive then responds by blowing M-I-C-K-E-Y on the whistle with a…………………….

WHOOOO, WHOOOO, WHOOOO, WHOOOO, WHOOOO, WHOOOO!!!!!!!

Cam: OH? He knows the M-I-C-K-E-Y code???!!!!! 2 can play at that???!!!!

Cam then responds by tugging M-O-U-S-E on the boat’s whistle chord with a…………..

WHOOOOOOOOOO, WHOOOOOOOOOO, WHOOOOOOOOOO, WHOOOOOOOOOOO, WHOOOOOOOOOOOO!!!!!!!!!!!

Captain Will: AWESOME!!!!!!! NOT EVERYONE KNOWS THAT CODE!!!!!!!

Wendy: THAT WAS AMAZING CAM!!!!!

Chelia: HOW DID YOU KNOW TO RESPOND?????!!!!!!

Carla: That’s, what I’d like to know……………

Troy: Let’s just say, Cam knows a few tricks up his sleeve!!!! LOL!!!!

Cam: I’m sorry, but I can’t reveal all my secrets!!! LOL!!!!

Captain Will: And that’s okay, because that was AWESOME!!!!

The Roger E. Broggie steam locomotive along with her train soon enter into Main Street Station, and it isn’t long until the Admiral Joe Flower Steamboat joins her as she gently coasts her way to the boating dock.

Captain Will: Well here is where we must part. It was great having you aboard, and up in the wheelhouse with me!!!!

Cam: Well hey, thanks for inviting us in!!!!

Captain Will: If ever you come back aboard for a sunset cruise, let me know, and I’ll get you back in!!!

Cam: That would be great!!!!

Wendy: Yeah, we’d love that!!!!

Captain Will: Well you guys take care, and have a Magical Day!!!!

Everyone: Thank you!!!! Will do!!!!

Alejandra: Alright, I’ll take you back down to the first deck so you can safely disembark, so right this way.

Chief Steward Alejandra soon escorts our friends out of the wheel house and down to the first deck as Captain Will gives 2 long blasts on the whistle, followed by 5 rings on the bell as the Admiral Joe Flower Riverboat gently docks.
The gang plank is then lowered, and Herbie along with Johnny 5 disembark before they are soon reunited with the rest of our friends as they walk down Main Street.

Cam: Alrighty, so we’re not scheduled to meet up back at the dock until 2:00, and it’s 12:10 now, so that’s almost 2 hours to kill.

Troy: Well, there are some shops we wanna check out on Rodeo Drive, so let’s go explore!!!!

Cam: Sounds good, but I doubt all of you would be interesting in going into Train World.

Troy: You have a valid point, and there’s an amazing Gaming store that I wanna check out, but would bore the heck out of everyone else here.

Carla: Come to think of it, I would like to make a trip to the salon and get my hair done………...

Herbie: Beeeeeeeeeeeeeeppppp!!!! -_-

Johnny 5: And Herbie wants to take a trip to the car wash!!!!
I on the other hand wanna go to the electrics store.

Chelia: Wendy and I saw this really cute store that sells plushies………..

Wendy: Yeah, they all looked SOOOOOOO CUTE!!!!

Chelia: We'd also like to buy new outfits for The Skies Sisters Concerts that are coming up soon!!!!

Wendy: Yeah!!!

Cam: Well that settles it. Let’s temporarily branch off and do our own thing until 1:10.

Troy: Perfect!!!! I do see a Zito’s Pizza here, so we can make that our rendezvous point when our shopping is done. I’ll put in our orders to go, so we have good time to make it back to the dock.

Wendy: Uhhhhh, here’s the thing………….

Chelia: Wendy and I are broke…………

Carla: Ditto…………….

Herbie: Beeeeeeeepppp!!!! -_-

Johnny 5: Herbie don’t have money for a car wash, and I don’t think I have enough for spare parts.

Cam: Well, I think I know how to remedy that!!!!

Cam hands $50 bucks to Wendy and Chelia, gives another $40 to Herbie, gives Johnny 5 $35 bucks, and gives Carla $40 bucks.

Cam: That should solve the problem, and I still got plenty to go around…………….

Wendy: Uuuuuhhhhhh……………you sure about this……………you really shouldn’t be this generous you know………….

Chelia: Yeah, we feel bad taking advantage of you like this…………..

Carla: As sweet as you are, this really isn’t setting a good example for the girls…………….

Herbie however doesn’t hesitate, he takes off, and makes his way over to the wash down as fast as he can.

Cam: Herbie didn’t have a problem!!!! LOL!!!

Troy: Herbie’s from San Francisco just like we are, and he’s been to Beverly Hills too, so he has an idea on how expensive good things are like a car wash.

Johnny 5: Well, I’m from New York, and it’s expensive too, so I need to do what I need to do in order to get spare parts.

Troy: Besides, Herbie getting a car wash is partly routine maintenance for a car, and even I can understand that. Johnny 5 needs spare parts in order to stay alive.
So they NEED the money, where as we’re just shopping for pleasure……….

Cam: Again, need I remind you that Rodeo Drive is EXPENSIVE!!!!!

Troy: GAHHHH!!!!! You’re not wrong there!!!! And frankly even the money you handed out just now wouldn’t by you much in Beverly Hills, however here, it can get you pretty far, so might as well make the most of it!!!!

Cam then gets out his cell phone and his eyes widen the moment he finds out what’s in stock with the new Train World App.

Cam: A new batch of Heislers just came in on the O-Scale legacy line, so I gotta go!!!!

And just like that, Cam takes off for Train World.

Troy: Oh boy!!!! He’s probably gonna buy to at least 2 grand worth of model trains knowing him.

Then Troy gets out his cell phone, opens up his app for the gaming store and sees something he likes too.

Troy: PS5 NOW IN STOCK!!!! NOW WAY!!!! I’M OUT!!!!!

Troy takes off too, leaving Carla baffled.

Carla: MY WORD!!!!! I will never understand boys!!!!
Well, anyways, let’s just stick to the plan and use the money that was generously given to us.

Wendy: Okay, but I still feel bad for taking advantage of Cam like this…………

Chelia: Me too!!!

Carla: Same here, but there’s no way we can give the money back now that he’s taken off.

Chelia: Well, those plushies look REALLY cute, and I would like to buy some accessories to match our new Sky Sister outfits!!!!

Wendy: Still it doesn’t feel right………………

Chelia: You’re probably saying that because you’re in love with him, aren’t you? *Giggles*

Wendy: *BLUSHES BRIGHT PINK* AM NOT!!!!!

Carla: You can’t really hide it Wendy it’s pretty obvious…………………

Wendy: THAT DOESN’T MATTER!!!! IT STILL DOESN’T FEEL RIGHT TO TAKE ADVANTAGE OF HIM LIKE THIS!!!!!

Chelia: Then looks like I’ll be going shopping!!!!

Wendy: HEY WAIT; DON’T SPEND IT ALL!!!! LEAVE SOME FOR ME!!!!

Carla couldn’t help but laugh as the 2 girls run off.

Carla: LOL!!!! So typical!!!! Anyways, looks like I’ll be getting some work done on this hair to make it more wavy.

https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=3ZX9N6g-mmc

It’s not long until all of our friends are enjoying themselves enormously.
Cam sees a new batch of Blue Tooth Lionel Legacy Heisler geared steam logging locomotives for his O-Scale Layout, along with a batch of new generation Bachmann Big Hauler 4-6-0 Ten Wheelers for his large scale layout, as well as new Large Scale Spectrum K-28 2-8-2 Mikados from the Denver & Rio Grande.

Cam: AWESOME!!!!!!! These Heislers are normally $1,300.00 bucks a piece back in my world, but here, they’re only $25 bucks a piece, and these K-28s are $15 US, and $10 US for the new 4-6-0s!!!!!

Cam then spots an Accucraft Live Steam Mason Boggie for a steam price of $50 US………

Cam: THESE COST $3,000 US Dollars, but are at a steam price of $50!!!!!! MAN I LOVE THE CURRENCY DIFFERENCE!!!!!!!

Cam then doesn’t hesitate to purchase an O-Scale Lionel Legacy Heisler from the Pickering Lumber Company along with matching Skeleton log cars, then purchases a new generation Large Scale Bachmann Big Haulers 4-6-0 Ten Wheeler from the Pennsylvania Railroad along with a matching PB-17 Phoenix Sound System and Pro-Line Fan Driven smoke unit.
He then purchases a brand new Large Scale Spectrum K-28 2-8-2 Mikado Number #476 from the Durango & Silverton along with a matching PB-17 Phoenix Sound unit, Pro-Line Fan Driven Smoke unit, and matching Spectrum Boxcars.
And he purchases the Large Scale Accucraft TenMile Live Steam 2-6-6RT Mason Bogie with a matching passenger car.
Then he buys a new generation Large Scale Bachmann Spectrum 2-6-0 Mogul of Ward Kimball’s Emma Nevada Number #2 with matching Phoenix PB-17 sound unit, Pro-Line Fan Driven Smoke Unit, and Jackson Sharp coaches.
Lastly he buys 2 OO Scale Hornby Railways J-36 0-6-0s from Scotland with DCC TTS Sound.

Cam: BOO & YA!!!!!! All for under $200 BUCKS!!!!!

Troy is also having the time of his life. He doesn’t hesitate to grab the last PS5 sitting on the shelf, and while he’s at it, he buys a second Wii-U system, a 3DS, multiple Mario and Zelda games, as well as the new Kingdom Hearts and Fire Emblem games.

Troy: WOW!!!!!! Now I know how Cam feels!!!! I GOT ALL THIS for under $100 dollars when it would have cost me close to a grand in our world!!!!!

At the wash down Herbie was in heaven!!!! After coming out of the tunnel, he got 3 coats of wax, and amorall inside and out, and tire gloss. He was also given a good amount of chrome polish all over his chrome trim from fender to fender, all 4 VW hub caps, both door handles plus the bonnet handle, engine cover opener, VW Badge, Carello Fog Lamp, both bumpers, his steering wheel horn ring, front turn signal lamps, and both headlamps.
And he was still able to leave a $10 dollar tip for the guys.

Herbie: BEEEEEEEP, BEEEEEEEP!!!!!

Herbie drove away from the wash down feeling like a brand new car.
Johnny 5 was able to get the replacement circuit boards he needed, and all for under the amount of money he was given.

Johnny 5: ALRIGHT!!!! I got just what I needed, plus a spare gun!!!! HAAAA, HAAAAA!!!!!

Carla was also enjoy herself at the hair salon, and when she was done…………

Carla: WOW!!!! I don’t think my hair ever looked so amazing!!!!! MEOW!!!!

Carla’s beautiful long pink hair was softer and wavier than ever before, and when she left the salon, A LOT of boys were drooling over her.

Carla: What’s with all the staring…………..I couldn’t be that more attractive, could I………..

Carla’s actually a VERY beautiful girl when in human form, but because her strong personality, putting so much dedication into being guardians of Wendy and Chelia, and spending most of her time in cat form, boys never crossed her mind, and neither did her beauty until now………….

Wendy: OH WOW!!!!!

Chelia: THESE PLUSHIES ARE SOOOOOO CUTE!!!!!!

Wendy and Chelia couldn’t get enough of the plushies, but they also looked at the cost as well as the amount of money they had.

Chelia: With this money, why don’t we also buy new outfits????!!!!

Wendy: And have them delivered to our hotel room?????!!!!

Chelia: BINGO!!!!!

With that Wendy and Chelia bought the cutest plushies they could get their hands on, as well as a few new outfits for their wardrobe.

Chelia: AND PERFECT!!!!

Wendy: The money we had covered everything!!!!

Chelia: And we’ll have some cute new outfits to wear as the Sky Sisters for concerts!!!!

Wendy: Yeah!!!!

Meanwhile Troy was well ahead of schedule, and decided to make a run to Zitto’s Pizza to take everyone’s order.

Troy: Alright!!!! I know what Cam wants, I know what I want, and I think the girls would be okay with regular Hawaiian……………….

Troy then puts in the orders, and in no time the pizzas are ready.

Troy: And that’s just perfect!!!!!

Troy then puts all the pizzas in his item storage when…………

Troy: WHAT THE HELL????!!!!!!

A bunch of ugly and terrifying giants start popping up out of the ground, and soldiers from the enemy army begin overrunning the place.

Cam: FLYIN FUCKEN SHIT!!!!! DON’T TELL ME KING DRAGO & QUEEN XAYIDE HAVE DECIDED TO INVADE EARLY????!!!!!!!!

Herbie: BEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEPPPPP!!!!!!!

Carla: MY WORD!!!!!! I DIDN’T THINK SOMETHING LIKE THIS WOULD HAPPEN!!!!!

Chelia: OH NO!!!!!!

Wendy: OH NO, OH NO, OH NO!!!!!!

Then he popped out…………………………..

Ren: BOYS!!!!! GET GOING AND GATHER UP WHAT YOU CAN!!!!! I HAVE SOME BUSINESS TO TAKE CARE OF!!!!!

This is Ren, King Drago’s head general of the enemy army, and Wendy Marvell’s former betrothed suitor…………….

Wendy: OH NOOOOOO……………………….NOT HIM………………………..

Chelia: WENDY RUN…………………………


To Be Continued…………….

Chapter 26

A Chaotic Chase Ensues

Johnny 5 was trying to make a run for cover when Herbie showed up!!!!

Herbie: BEEEEEEEP BEEEEEEP!!!!!!

Johnny 5: HERBIE????!!!!!!!!  THANK GOODNESS!!!!!

Herbie: BEEEP, BEEEP, BEEP, BEEP, BEEP, BEEEP!!!!!

Herbie tosses out his item storage gun, rolls over it and shrinks Johnny 5 down to person size before Johnny 5 picks up the item storage gun, and jumps in the driver’s seat.
Meanwhile Wendy was on the run from her former suitor Ren.

Ren: OH YES!!!!!  YOU GUYS SEARCH FOR WENDY MARVELL!!!!!  THAT GIRL IS MY BRIDE TO BE!!!!!

Burt: I’M ON IT!!!!!

Mr. Prindle: WE’LL HANDLE IT!!!!!

Herbie instantly spots Wendy and opens up his trunk.

https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=bXDijxOKRiQ

Herbie: BEEEEEEEP, BEEEEEEP!!!!!

Wendy: OH THANK YOU HERBIE!!!!!

Wendy makes a mad dash, and jumps into Herbie’s trunk, but not before she’s spotted.

Mr. Prindle: THERE SHE IS!!!!!!!!  IN THE CAR!!!!!!

Herbie slams his trunk bonnet shut before shifting his transmission straight into 4th gear, and slamming his throttle all the way down to the floor with his rear tires screaming before popping a steep 45 degree angled wheelie while as he charges at Burt and Mr. Prindle.

Burt: WHAT IS THIS???!!!!!

Mr. Prindle GET OUT OF THE WAY!!!!!

Herbie’s front end slams down hard on the ground before bouncing back up before he turns a corner, and drifts his rear end out while driving away.  
Ren however was NOT happy.

Ren: WHAT ARE YOU 2 AIR HEADS DOING????!!!!!!  YOU GET THAT CAR!!!!!!  DEAD OR ALIVE!!!!!

Meanwhile Cam gets out his phone, and manages to get ahold of Poe & Finn as well as Papillon helicopters.

Cam: GUYS I NEED YOUR HELP!!!!  I NEED AN AS-350 FROM YOU GUYS PAPILLON, AND I NEED THE MOST POWERFUL PORTABLE CANNON YOU GUYS HAVE YOU AND FINN CAN GET AHOLD OF POE!!!!!

Poe: NOT A PROBLEM!!!!  WE’LL DO OUR BEST!!!!!

Cam: MEET ME OUTSIDE THE DELANO ON THE STRIP!!!!!

Cam makes a run for the Delano Hotel on the Resort Strip.
Mean while Troy runs as fast as he could and ends up bumping into Carla.

Carla: OH, THANK GOD IT’S YOU!!!!!  WHAT ON EARTH IS GOING ON???!!!!!

Troy: NO IDEA!!!!!!  

Carla: WHERE’S YOUR BROTHER, HAVE YOU SEEN WENDY OR CHELIA????!!!!!

Troy: UNFORTUNATELY I HAVEN’T GOT THE SLIGHTEST IDEA, AND I HAVEN’T SEEN WENDY OR CHELIA ANYWHERE!!!!!!   I ALSO HAVEN’T SEEN HERBIE OR JOHNNY 5 EITHER!!!!!

Carla: OH NOOOOOO!!!!!!!

Carla then sees who is responsible for the chaos on a large t.v. screen, and when she sees who it is, her heart sinks.

Carla: OH NOOOOOO!!!!!!  NOT HIM!!!!!!

Troy: WHO THE HELL IS THAT????!!!!!!!

Carla: WENDY’S FORMER SUITOR, REN!!!!!!!  

Troy: UH-OH!!!!!!!!

Carla: WHEN HER PARENTS WERE STILL ALIVE, WENDY WAS BETROTHED TO THAT CREEP, AND WHENEVER HE CAME OVER FOR PLAY DATES, HE WAS NOTHING BUT AWFUL TO HER!!!!!  
HE WAS DISGUSTING, PERVERTIVE, AND JUST PLAIN MEAN TO HER!!!!!

Troy: AND HOW LONG AGO WAS THIS????!!!!!

Carla: THIS ALL HAPPENED 5-7 YEARS AGO WHEN WENDY WAS JUST A LITTLE GIRL!!!!!  
BUT WHEN HER PARENTS DIED IN A FIRE, THE PREARRANGED MARRIAGE WAS DROPPED, AND I KEPT WENDY UNDER MY PERSONAL PROTECTION!!!!
NOW IT SEEMS REN IS ANGRY ABOUT IT, AND WILL STOP AT NOTHING TO GET HER!!!!!

Troy: THE GUY’S AN ASSHOLE AND A SORE LOSER!!!!!

Carla: AND HE’S WAY TOO OLD FOR HER!!!!!!!

Troy: HOW OLD IS HE????!!!!

Carla: HE’S 29!!!!!!!

Troy: WHAT????!!!!!!  THAT’S WAY OLDER THAN CAM AND I!!!!!!

Carla: EXACTLY, AND I FORBID BOTH WENDY AND CHELIA FROM BEING INVOLVED WITH A DISGUSTING CREEP LIKE HIM!!!!!!

Troy: I DON’T BLAME YOU!!!!

Carla calls Wendy and is happy to find her safe.

Wendy: HEY, I can’t talk!!!!  I’m on the run hiding in Herbie!!!!

Carla: I understand, just wanna make sure you’re safe!!!

Troy: Well, now we know where she is.  She’s in Herbie’s trunk.

Carla: Must be to hide from Ren.

Troy: Most likely!!!!  They know where to meet us, so our best bet is to get to the boat loading dock as fast as possible.

Carla: RIGHT!!!!

Chelia runs down the resort strip and finds a red AS-350 B-2 A-Star Helicopter idling outside the Delano Hotel.  She then notices that both of the rear passenger doors have been taken off, and sees Poe, Finn, and a few of the Royal Army’s soldiers bolting a cannon to the floor of the helicopter’s interior as well as a couple machine guns on the front of the helicopter’s nose.  

Cam: ALRIGHT!!!!  LOOKS LIKE THAT WILL HAVE TO DO!!!!!

Chelia was shocked when she saw Cam leading the operation.

Chelia: WHAT????!!!!!!  CAM, MIND TELLING ME WHAT’S GOING ON??????!!!!!!!

A few enemy fighter jets fly overhead and attempt to shoot at the helicopter, but with no luck.

Cam: THE PLAN IS TO TAKE OUT THESE SUCKERS BEFORE WE GET OUT OF HERE!!!!

Chelia: WHAT??????!!!!!!!  ARE YOU CRAZY?????!!!!!!!

Cam: IT’S THE ONLY OPTION WE HAVE IF WE WANNA GET TO SAFETY!!!!!

Poe: FINN & I ARE READY WHEN YOU ARE SIR!!!!!

Cam: IT’S NOW OR NEVER!!!!!

Chelia: WAIT, I’M GOING WITH YOU!!!!!

Cam: OKAY!!!!

Chelia hops in the front left hand side passenger seat as Cam hops into the pilot seat on the front right hand side, while Poe and Finn hop into the rear passenger compartment of the helicopter.

Cam: ALRIGHT!!!!  I’VE NEVER FLOWN IN COMBAT BEFORE, SO THIS WILL BE INTERESTING!!!!!

Chelia: OH BOY!!!!!!

Cam opens the throttle, pulls up on the collective lever, and the AS-350 A-Star takes off into the sky.

Cam: ALRIGHT, THE PLAN IS TO LEAD THE ENEMY FIGHTERS AWAY FROM THE CITY TO THE VALLEYS IN ISLA NUMBAR, AND HOPE THEY CRASH!!!!

Chelia: THAT IS REASSURING!!!!!!

Cam: RIGHT NOW ALL HELICOPTERS ARE GROUNDED BECAUSE OF THIS ATTACK MAKING US THE ONLY ONE AIR BOURN, SO IT’S FAIR GAME!!!!!

Meanwhile as Herbie was attempting to make a run for the rendezvous point at the boat loading dock, when Herbie notices Ren’s army of limos in hot pursuit.
Herbie then turns a corner, and drives away as fast as he could.

https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=tOO-LhJVmL4

Mr. Prindle: WE HAVE SPOTTED THE CAR REN!!!!!!

Herbie is soon chased into an alley way, and unfortunately came to a dead end.  Ren’s limos soon corner him, and cut off all his routes of escape.  
Herbie was trapped………….

Johnny 5: UH-OH!!!!  WHAT DO WE DO NOW HERBIE????!!!!!!

Mr. Prindle: ALRIGHT!!!!!  WE’RE MOVING IN FOR THE KILL NOW REN!!!!

Ren: GREAT!!!!  THEY’RE MOVING IN FOR THE KILL!!!!!

Herbie still had a few tricks up his sleeve, and wasn’t allowing himself to get caught that easily.  He still had other plans when…………..

Burt & Mr. Prindle: WOOOOOOOOOOOOAAAAAAAAAHHHHH!!!!!!!

Herbie drove up along the side of the outer wall of a building, drove passed Ren’s army of limos, gently touched back down on the tarmac, and drove away.

Ren: HEY, WHAT HAPPENED????!!!!!!!!  YOU SAID YOU WERE MOVING IN FOR THE KILL???????!!!!!!!!

Burt: NOT YET!!!!!  IT GOT AWAY UNFORTUNATELY!!!!!

Mr. Prindle: THEY’RE OBVIOUSLY VERY DESPERATE, BUT DON’T WORRY, THEY WON’T MAKE IT THIS TIME!!!!

Ren’s army of limos chase Herbie through Downtown Grand Bay Lake, over to the Metreon Center, and into a parking garage.
Herbie however, would climb up the next level, and the next level, and the next level, and continued to climb up the spiral driveway of the parking garage with Ren’s army of limos in hot pursuit.

Johnny 5: Oh, you know a few shortcuts Herbie?

Herbie continues to drive up level after level after lever VERY hard and fast with the limos right on his tail.

Ren: WHERE IS IT NOW!!!!!

Burt: THEY’RE STILL GOING UP AND UP!!!!!  IT’S INCREDIBLE!!!!!!

Mr. Prindle: THAT ROBOT’S DRIVING LIKE A MAD MAN!!!!!

At long last, Herbie reached the roof of the garage.  However, with no escape route available, Herbie had to find a way, and fast.
He soon spotted 2 classic later model 1960s VW Beetles, drives up their backs as a makeshift launch ramp, jumping off the parking garage high into the air over the busy traffic below, and landing on the ground of the roof of the other garage across the way with a VERY HARD……………..

THUD!!!!!

Wendy was bounced up in Herbie’s trunk, and hit her head on the inside of his bonnet.

Wendy: OWWWWW!!!!!!

Johnny 5: WHAT THE?????!!!!!!  HERBIE, WHAT ON EARTH WAS THAT????!!!!!!  IT SOUNDED LIKE SOMEONE SAID OUCH!!!!!!

Meanwhile Ren’s army of limos reach the roof of the garage, but come to a grinding halt.  Herbie was nowhere to be seen.

Burt: NOW WHERE IS IT????!!!!

The limo’s phone then rings.

Mr. Prindle: DON’T ANSWER IT BURT!!!!!  IT’LL BE REN!!!!!

Some time later, Ren’s army of limos soon find the car driving along the Resort Strip.

Burt: LOOK!!!!!

Ren calls in on the limo’s phone, and Mr. Prindle answers it.

Ren: HEY, WHAT’S UP???!!!!!!  DIDN’T ANY OF GUYS HEAR ME CALLING YOU????!!!!!

Mr. Prindle: OH NO, THE PHONE DIDN’T RING BEFORE!!!!!  YOU KNOW HOW IT IS IN THE BIG CITY!!!!!  WERE YOU TRYING TO RING US????!!!!!!

Ren: DID YOU GRAB THE CAR??????!!!!!!

Mr. Prindle: OH, ANY MINUTE NOW………………

Herbie then drives over the curb, up the staircase, and through the entrance of famous Sheraton Palace Hotel.

Mr. Prindle: AND THERE IT GOES…………..INTO THE SHERATON PALACE HOTEL!!!!!

Ren: OKAY......................THE SHERATON PALACE HOTEL??????!!!!!!!

Herbie drives through the hotel’s lobby before making his way through the hotel’s main restaurant in the beautiful glass atrium, The Garden Court.
Johnny 5 was starting to get suspicious.

Johnny 5: Okay Herbie!!!!  But you’ll never convince me that this is a shortcut to the boat loading dock at Main Street.

Burt, Mr. Prindle, and some more of Rens thugs coming running through the hotel, and barge in through the restaurant’s entrance when they spot Herbie.

Maitre D: GENTLEMEN!!!!  DO YOU HAVE A RESERVATION????!!!!!

BURT: YES!!!!!

Mr. PRINDLE: THERE IT IS!!!!!!

Rens Thugs: DON’T LET IT GET AWAY!!!!

Herbie then drives through 2 massive doors leading into the hotel’s main kitchen when a waiter exiting out of the kitchen carries a large wedding cake.
Unfortunately one of Ren’s thugs was clumsy, and ends up crashing into the waiter carrying the cake, causing the waiter to spill the cake all over Ren’s thugs along with Burt and Mr. Prindle in a chain reaction.

Burt, Mr. Prindle, and Ren’s Thugs: WHOOOOOOOAAAAAA, WHOOOOOOOOOAAAAA, WHOOOOOOOOOOOOOAAAAAAAAA, OH SHIT, AAAHHHH, NOT FUNNY!!!!!!

Burt then picks up a piece of cake, throws it at the waiter, and the piece of cake hits the waiter in the face.
Herbie manages to escape, and drives back out onto the resort strip as Cam and Chelia in the helicopter spot them from overhead.

https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=zQ16Yfyr-_8

Chelia: LOOK!!!!!

Cam: IT’S HERBIE!!!!!

Cam then spots some more giants and limos from Ren’s army along with enemy fighters.

Cam: Only one thing to do!!!!!  FIRE AWAY BOYS!!!!!!

Finn: YOU GOT SIR!!!!!

Poe and Finn fire the cannon as Cam fires the machine guns clearing Herbie’s path as they all knock down the giants, limos, and enemy fighters.

Cam: I’ll take us lower!!!!!

Cam flies the helicopter through the main streets of the city while staying only 50 feet off the ground.

Cam: KEEP FIRING AND DON’T LET UP!!!!!

Poe: YOU GOT IT SIR!!!!!

More of them giants dead ahead!!!!!  I’ve got em!!!!!

Cam fires his machine guns destroying all the giants, as Poe and Finn fire the cannon knocking out Ren’s army’s artillery of tanks, jeeps, cannons, and battering rams.

Ren: WHAT????!!!!!!!  FIRST 2 OVER PAID SLACKERS CAN’T CATCH A CAR, AND NOW PART OF MY ARMY IS ALMOST WIPED OUT BY AN A-STAR???????!!!!!!!!  GET THAT HELICOPTER!!!!!!

Chelia: OH NO!!!!!  REN’S ONTO US!!!!!!!  GET US OUT OF HERE, QUICK!!!!!

Cam: AM ON IT!!!!!!!

Poe: I NEVER THOUGHT WE’D SEE HIM AGAIN!!!!!!

Finn: WHAT’S HIS PROBLEM?????!!!!!!!

Cam: WHO IS THIS REN?????!!!!!

Chelia: REN IS WENDY’S FORMER SUITOR!!!!!  YA SEE, LONG AGO WENDY WAS ARRANGED TO MARRY REN BECAUSE HER PARENTS THOUGHT SHE’D HAVE A BETTER LIFE WITH HIM SINCE HE CAME FROM A FAMILY WITH MONEY!!!!
UNFORTUNATELY REN WAS NOT RESPECTFUL OF HER AT ALL, AND WAS NOTHING BUT A BIG PERVERT WHO ONLY WANTED HER BECAUSE SHE WAS CUTE!!!!!

Cam: DOMINANT ALPHA MALE TYPE???!!!!!

Chelia: YES, BIG TIME!!!!!

Cam: THOSE TYPE OF GUYS PISS ME OFF!!!!  HE SOUNDS LIKE HE’S NOTHING MORE THAN AN EMOTIONALLY INSECURE BULLY WHO WAS GIVEN EVERYTHING HE WANTED, NEVER TAUGHT ANY VALUES, AND PROBABLY NEVER HAD TO WORK A DAY IN HIS GOD DAMNED LIFE!!!!!

Poe: HIT THE NAIL RIGHT ON THE HEAD!!!!!

Cam soon leads Ren’s enemy fighter jets out of the city and along the channel leading to Isla Nublar.

https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=kUsFWO08CO0

Cam: ALRIGHT!!!!!  WE’VE GOT EM ON OUR TAIL!!!!

But, the enemy fighters were shooting at the helicopter, and Cam was constantly having to dodge their attacks.

Cam: I CAN’T SEEM TO SHAKE THESE GUYS!!!!!!

Poe: WHAT’S THE TOP SPEED ON THIS THING?????!!!!!!

Cam: ABOUT 150 MILES AN HOUR!!!!!!

Finn: THAT’S BULLSHIT MAN!!!!

Poe: WE CAN’T SEEM TO OUTRUN THEM!!!!!!

Cam: WE CAN’T BECAUSE THEY’RE CAPABLE OF SPEEDS MORE THAN TWICE AS FAST AS OURS, SO THEY’RE CATCHING UP!!!!!!!!!
HOWEVER……………………..

Cam pushes down on the main cyclic control stick, putting the A-Star into a steep nose dive increasing his speed beyond which that the A-Star was capable of before pulling up out of the dive, and rolling the A-Star onto it’s back………….

Chelia: *SCREAMS*  AHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHH!!!!!!!!!!!

Poe: CAM, ARE YOU CRAZY?????!!!!!!

Finn: IF I DIDN’T KNOW ANY BETTER, I WOULD HAVE THOUGHT YOU WERE TRYING TO GET US KILLED!!!!!

Cam: NOW I GOT EM WHERE I WANT EM!!!!!

With the helicopter now behind the enemy fighter jets after perform a full areal maneuver, Cam fires the helicopter’s machine guns, and shoots down a good number of fighters from behind before they all go plunging into the water below.

Finn: WOOOOOOOOOOOOOAAAAAAAAAAHHHH!!!!!!!

Poe: DUDE THAT WAS SICK!!!!!!

Cam: TRAINED ALONG SIDE TOM CRUISE AT AIRBUS HELICOPTERS WHILE HE WAS PREPARING FOR HIS NEXT MISSION IMPOSSIBLE FILM, FALLOUT!!!!!

Finn: THAT’S AWESOME!!!!

Cam: DON’T GET TOO EXCITED!!!!!  THE REALITY IS MORE TERRIFYING THAN FICTION!!!!!

More enemy fighters came firing at Cam’s helicopter, and soon there were too many of them to handle.

Finn: POE, THERE’S TOO MANY OF THEM!!!!!!

Poe: WE CAN’T KEEP THIS UP MUCH LONGER!!!!!!

Chelia: IS THIS IT????!!!!!

Cam: NO IT’S NOT!!!!!  HOLD ON!!!!!

The A-Star finally makes it to Isla Nublar, and not a minute too soon as Cam flies the helicopter over a cliff, and lowers it into a valley.

Cam: MOST FIGHTERS ARE TRAINED TO FLY IN VALLEYS, BUT NOT DURING INCLIMENT WEATHER!!!!!

Dark clouds loomed over, and soon it was pouring in buckets as Cam activated the windshield wiper blades as he flew the helicopter through heavy misty fog.

Chelia: I CAN’T SEE A THING!!!!!

POE: HOW ARE YOU SUPPOSED TO FLY IN THIS?????!!!!!!

Cam: USING THE SATALITE NAVIGATION ON THE RADAR, AND RIGHT NOW WE ARE IN THE MIDDLE OF THE THICKEST FOG DURING A TROPICAL STORM!!!!!

Chelia: IT WASN’T LIKE THIS DURING THE EARLIER FLIGHT!!!!!!

Cam: WHICH GIVES US THE ADVANTAGE!!!!!

Many enemy fighters couldn’t see where they were going, and many ended up crashing into each other, as well as the sides of the cliffs near the waterfalls.

Finn: IT’S TOO THICK HERE!!!!! PULL UP!!!!!

Cam pulls up on the collective lever, and pulls the A-Star out of the fog.

Cam: AHHHHH!!!!!  NOW I KNOW WHERE WE ARE!!!!!!  WE’RE JUST ABOVE THE AMPHITHEATER KEYHOLE AT THE END OF HILAWE CANYON!!!!!

Enemy fighters soon show up on all sides of the A-Star helicopter, leaving almost no room for escape.

Chelia: OH NO!!!!!  THEY HAVE US CORNERED!!!!!!

Finn: DUED WE’RE SURRONDED!!!!!

Poe: NOWHERE TO RUN AND NO WHERE TO HIDE!!!!!

Cam: THAT’S WHAT YOU THINK!!!!!  HOLD ON, I’M GONNA PULL A FORBIDDEN STUNT THAT’LL GET A PILOT FIRED FROM THE INDUSTRY!!!!!

Chelia: OH BOY!!!!!!

Cam pushes down hard on the collective lever, causing the A-Star to drop out of the sky, and plunge more than 4000 feet into the gorge below.

Chelia: *SCREAMS* AAAAAAAAHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHH!!!!!!!!

Finn: WOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOAAAAAAAAAAAHHHHHH SHIIIIIIIIIIIIIIITTTTTT!!!!!!

Poe: CAAAAAAAAAAAMMMMMMMAAAAAAAAAAARRRRRRRROOOOOO!!!!!!!!!!!!!

Alarms were soon blaring about in the cabin.

Alarms: PULL UP!!!!!  TERRAIN!!!!  PULL UP!!!!!! TOO LOW TERRAIN!!!!!!!

Cam then pulled up hard on the collective lever just in the nick of time, as the A-Star stopped falling, and was soon gently hovering ONLY 50 feet above the top of trees when…………………..

BANG, BANG, BANG, BANG, BANG, BANG, BANG………………..CRASH, CRASH, CRASH, CRASH, CRASH, CRASH, CRASH, CRASH……………….KABOOM!!!!!!!!

A BUNCH of enemy fighter jets crashed into one another with no time to respond after Cam’s stunt.

Cam: And now we have another problem………………….

Cam stomped hard on the rudder pedals, before grabbing the cyclic control stick, and opening up the throttle before pulling up on the collective lever, causing the A-Star to make a run for it out of the keyhole and through Hilawe Canyon as falling debris from the smashed fighters came crashing down EVERYWHERE!!!!!

Poe: HOW MANY FIGHTERS WERE THERE?????!!!!!

Cam: MORE THAN I COULD CARE TO COUNT!!!!!!

Finn: THIS FALLING DEBRIS IS NOT LETTING UP MAN!!!!!!

Chelia: I SHOULDN’T HAVE COME!!!!!!

Some falling debris hits the A-Star’s tail rotor, and another piece strikes the engine.

Cam: UH-OH!!!!!  THAT WAS NOT GOOD!!!!

Chelia: WHAT HAPPENED????!!!!!!

Cam: DAMAGE TO THE TAIL ROTOR, AND THE ENGINE IS STARTING TO OVERHEAT!!!!!  WE’RE GONNA HAVE TO GAIN ALTITUDE, AND THEN LAND AS SOON AS POSSIBLE!!!!!

Chelia: OH BOY!!!!!!

Meanwhile back at the boat loading dock, Troy and Carla make it as they meet up with Twilight Sparkle, Cadence, Celestia, and Luna when Princess Erika’s private yacht shows up.

Troy: PERFECT TIMING; NOT A MOMENT TO LOSE!!!!!

Carla: I’M NOT LEAVING HERE WITHOUT WENDY AND CHELIA!!!!!!

Soon Herbie drives up onto the dock followed by Rami in his Shelby Ford Mustang GT, and Toby in his Koenigsegg Agera right on his tail.

Troy: LOWER THE GANG PLANK RIGHT AWAY!!!!!

Ramsley & Helmsley: RIGHT AWAY SIR!!!!!!!

Ramsley and Helmsley lower the gang plank  just before Herbie, Rami, and Toby drive up onto the yacht, and Park right in the middle of what appeared to be like a massive living room.
Carla and Troy ran aboard and rendezvoused with Herbie and Johhnny 5 ASAP.

Troy: THANK GOODNESS YOU 2 ARE ALRIGHT!!!!

Johnny 5: It was quite the chase from those guys, but we managed to make a break for it!!!!  I have no idea why we were being chased by a bunch of limos anyway.
Would you know why Herbie?

Wendy: That would be my fault………………

Johnny 5: WHAT THE????!!!!!  THERE’S THAT VOICE AGAIN!!!!  JUST LIKE THE ONE WE HEARD A-TOP OF THE PARKING GARAGE...............

Then Herbie opens his trunk, and Wendy slowly gets out………….

Wendy: It’s good to finally get out of there!!!!  It’s very hot and cramped in there, not to mention my butt’s killing me…………

Carla: WENDY!!!!!!

Carla ran up to Wendy, and wrapped her arms around her in a tight hug.

Carla: ARE YOU ALRIGHT WENDY????!!!!!

Wendy: YES, OF COURSE!!!!  Thanks to Herbie I’m okay!!!!

Johnny 5: MS. MARVELL, YOU WERE RIDING IN HERBIE’S TRUNK THIS WHOLE TIME??????!!!!!!!

Wendy: Yeah, I’m sorry……………..I was just trying to hide from Ren………………..

Carla: That is completely understandable…………..I’m just glad you’re not hurt……….

Wendy: Just one thing……………..isn’t the engine supposed to be in the front here?  I find it rather odd that the front is the trunk…………..

Carla: Now that I think about it, that is kinda odd…………….

Troy, Rami, Toby, and Johnny 5 all burst out laughing…………..

Carla: WHAT?????!!!!!!  WHAT ON EARTH IS SO FUNNY?????!!!!!!

Wendy: Yeah, what is it????!!!!

Toby: LOL!!!!!!  EVERYONE WHOSE SOMEWHAT FAMILIAR WITH CARS…………………..

Troy: KNOWS THAT THE ENGINE ON A VOLKSWAGEN BEETLE…………….

Rami: IS IN THE BACK!!!!!! LOL!!!!!

Herbie then opens his rear engine cover, and at the same time Toby opens up the rear engine cover of his Agera.

Rami: Not all cars have their engines in the front like my Mustang.

Toby: Even my Agera has its engine in the back.

Johnny 5: But EVERYONE knows that the VW Beetle has its engine located in the back.  And it’s been that way since Porsche first built the VW Beetle back in the 1930s when they first came out.

Troy: Newer ones built from 1998 to now have their engines in the front and are front wheel drive like most common cars are today, but all classic VWs have em in the back and are rear wheel drive.  It’s the same thing on a Porsche Carrera 911……..the main difference between the Beetle and Carrera 911 is that the Beetle’s engine doesn’t use a radiator, where as the 911 does.

Carla: No need to laugh at us for not knowing………….none of us ever grew up with cars…………we don’t know any better..……..so please give us a break………..

Wendy: Yeah, no need to be so mean………….

Twilight: Well, we almost have the whole gang here!!!!

Cadence: Just Cam, Poe, Finn, and Chelia………………

Wendy: WHAT????!!!!!  CHELIA’S NOT HERE YET?????!!!!!

Celestia: It’s not even 2 O-clock yet, so they could be making their way over here………………….

Wendy: No way!!!!  She and I went shopping for plushies and new Sky Sister outfits together, and when we went to rendezvous, Ren showed up, and we both branched off because of that.  Herbie came to my rescue before Ren could get to me…………

Troy then receives a video call on his Ipad, and it’s Cam…………..

Troy: THERE YOU ARE!!!!  We were starting to get worried………….

Cam: TROY, HOW CLOSE ARE YOU AND THE YACHT????!!!!

Troy: WE ARE JUST ABOUT TO LEAVE THE DOCK, BUT WE’RE WAITING ON YOU!!!!!  WHAT IS THAT NOISE, AND WHERE ARE YOU AT??????!!!!!!

Cam: YOU NEED TO LEAVE THE DOCK NOW!!!!!!!!  GET OUT NOW!!!!!!!  THIS IS AN EMERGENCY!!!!!!

Carla: NO!!!!!  WE CAN’T LEAVE WITHOUT CHELIA!!!!!

Chelia: CARLA, I’M HERE!!!!!

Carla: WHAT??????!!!!!!

Cam: POE & FINN ARE WITH ME TOO!!!!!!

Troy: WHAT’S GOING ON CAM?????!!!!!!

Cam: WE COMMANDEERED ONE OF PAPILLON’S AS350 HELICOPTERS AND LOADED UP ONE OF THE CANNONS TO FIGHT OFF ENEMY FIGHTER JETS!!!!!
WE LOST EM IN HILAWE CANYON ON ISLA NUBLAR, BUT WE HAVE A PROBLEM……………

Troy: UH-OH!!!!!  I Don’t like the sound of that…………..

Carla: WHAT????!!!!!  IF CHELIA’S LIFE IS IN DANGER, YOU WILL NEVER HEAR THE END OF IT!!!!!!!

Cam: I JUST GOT US OUT OF ISLA NUMBLAR, AND HAVE ENOUGH ALTITUDE TO POSSIBLY MAKE IT HALF WAY………………………

Troy: What’s happened????!!!!

Cam: YOU KNOW THE STUNT THAT VIETNAM WAR VETERAN PILOT PULLED ON US IN THE WIAMANU VALLEY OVER 15-YEARS AGO????..................

Troy: WHAT????!!!!!!!  YOU DIDN’T???????!!!!!!!

Cam: I HAD NO CHOICE…………………WE WERE OUT NUMBERED AND CORNERED!!!!!!   HAD I NOT PULLED THAT STUNT IN THE KEYHOLE, WE WOULD HAVE BEEN SHOT DOWN!!!!!
HOWEVER IT WORKED OUT IN OUR FAVOR BECAUSE ALL THE FIGHTER JETS ENDED UP CASHING INTO EACH OTHER, AND/OR SHOT EACH OTHER DOWN!!!!!  NOT ONE OF THEM SURVIVED………………….UNFORTUNATELY, FALLING DEBRIS HAS HIT THE AIRCRAFT, DONE DAMAGE TO THE TAIL ROTOR, AND MY ENGINE IS OVERHEATING…………………..
YOU GUYS HAVE TO GET OUT TO THE HALF WAY POINT OF THE CHANNEL NOW OR WE’RE IN SERIOUS TROUBLE!!!!!!

Troy: How much control do you have?

Cam: I STILL HAVE CONTROL IN PITCH, I STILL HAVE CONTROL IN ROLL, AND I STILL HAVE CONTROL IN YAW, BUT THAT COULD CHANGE AT ANY MOMENT, SO YOU GUYS NEED TO GET MOVING!!!!!!

Cam then hangs up and all goes silent.

Troy: Well you heard him.  Raise the gangplank and get us outta here!!!!

Carla and Wendy were both starting to cry.  They were VERY worried about the safety of their friend Chelia.

Carla: I can’t believe it……………..Chelia could be in danger……………..

Wendy: I shouldn’t have left her………………it’s all my fault………………

Troy: You 2 have nothing to blame yourselves for………………Cam’s doing everything he can to protect Chelia.  She probably went with him because she probably felt safer with him with the whole chaos going on……………………………

Princess Chloe: Yeah, don't beat yourselves up girls!!!!

Princess Mackenzie: I'm sure they're gonna be just fine!!!!

Carla: I SWEAR……………IF I SEE A SINGLE SCRATCH ON CHELIA, I WILL NEVER FORGIVE HIM!!!!!!!!!

Troy: I understand you’re concern, but I promise you, Cam is a very good pilot despite only having 2 years experience.  He’s been very well trained at the Airbus Academy in Texas, and has performed any emergency maneuver required to be FAA certified.  
He even studied and trained along side Tom Cruise RIGHT before the filming of the new Mission Impossible Movie Fallout.  However it’s not something he brags about………………………..

Carla: Who on earth is that????!!!!!

Wendy: And what’s Mission Impossible????!!!!

Troy: From where Cam and I come from Tom Cruise is one of the most famous actor’s in Hollywood’s history, and Mission Impossible is one of the most popular movie sagas of all time.  However, it seems that neither exist in this world…………..
But anyways, everything will be fine.  I know my brother Cam, and he will put the safety of his passengers as top priority.  He would never do anything to put anyone's life in danger, I promise……………………….

Over on the helicopter, Cam had managed to get the stricken A-Star a good distance away from Isla Numblar, but alarms were going off about the engine overheating.

Cam: UH-OH!!!!!  

Chelia: WHAT’S WRONG????!!!!!

Cam: IF THIS KEEPS UP, THE ENGINE COULD BLOW UP!!!!!

Then out of nowhere……………………

CLUNK!!!!!!!!!!!!!!

Another alarm went off, and this time it was an alarm for the tail rotor.

Cam: FLYIN FUCKEN SHIT!!!!!!!  MY TAIL ROTOR!!!!!!!
IF THIS KEEPS UP I COULD LOSE IT, AND WE’D BE FUCKED IF THAT HAPPENED!!!!!  I’M SORRY, BUT I HAVE NO CHOICE BUT TO SHUT THE DOWN THE ENGINE!!!!!!!

Chelia: OH BOY!!!!!!  

Cam sets to work on the shut down procedure, and kills power to the engine……………

Poe: WHAT’S THE IMPORTANCE OF THE TAIL ROTOR?????!!!!!!

Cam: IT COUNTERACTS THE TORQUE OF THE HELICOPTER’S MAIN ROTOR, AND ALLOWS ME TO KEEP IT STRAIGHT, AND STEER US SIDE TO SIDE!!!!!  WITHOUT IT, WE’D BE SPINNING OUT OF CONTROL UNDER THE MAIN ROTOR AND CRASH!!!!!

Finn: THAT’S BULLSHIT MAN!!!!

Cam: NO, IT’S CALLED SCIENCE!!!!!!  THE TAIL ROTOR ALSO PROVIDES THRUST WHILE THE MAIN ROTOR PROVIDES LIFT!!!!!  2 IMPORTANT FACTORS FOR FLIGHT!!!!  WITHOUT EITHER YOU’RE GROUNDED!!!!!

Chelia: WHAT OTHER FACTORS ARE NEEDED????!!!!!

Cam: WEIGHT FOR CENTER OF GRAVITY IN ORDER TO KEEP US NICELY CENTERED!!!!   THE CANNON IS LOCATED IN THE REAR OF THE PASSENGER COMPARTMENT WITH POE AND FINN, WHICH HELPS PROVIDE US WITH THE CENTER OF GRAVITY NEEDED TO KEEP US BALANCED WITH YOU AND I IN THE FRONT!!!
THE OTHER ONE IS DRAG!!!!  DRAG IS THE OPPOSING FORCE THAT HELPS PROVIDE THE MAIN ROTOR WITH LIFT!!!!
WITHOUT THESE 4 KEY ELEMENTS OF LIFT, DRAG, WEIGHT, AND THRUST, THERE’S NO WAY WE COULD FLY!!!!!

Chelia: HOW HIGH ARE WE????!!!!!

Cam: WE’RE A GOOD 5,000 FEET ABOVE THE WATER, AND THAT’LL GIVE US AT LEAST ENOUGH ALTITUDE TO MAKE IT TO THE HALF WAY MARK OF THE CHANNEL!!!!!  PASSED THAT WE’D HAVE NO CHOICE BUT TO DITCH………….

Poe: DITCH AS IN?????....................

Cam: A WATER LANDING!!!!!!

Chelia: OH BOY!!!!!!!

Cam: AND IT GETS WORSE!!!!  WITH MY TAIL ROTOR ALMOST AS GOOD AS USELESS, I CAN'T MOVE US SIDE TO SIDE, SO THE YACHT HAS TO BE BANG ON TARGET, OR I HAVE NO CHOICE BUT TO LAND US IN THE WATER!!!!  THANKFULLY THE WAVES ARE GENTLE ENOUGH FOR A DITCHING, UNLIKE THE OCEAN!!!!

Poe: UH-OH!!!!!

Princess Erika’s Royal Yachet is soon out of the loading dock, and en-route to the halfway meeting point.

Princess Chloe: Troy, what are we looking for????!!!!!

Troy: Be on the look out for a red helicopter!!!!  The fleet has been grounded due to invasion, so Cam’s the only one flying!!!

Princess Mackenzie: I hope he and Chelia are okay!!!!!

Wendy: You and me both Mackenzie………….

Manaka then spots something in the sky.

Manaka: I THINK I SEE EM!!!!!!

Miuna then gets out Princess Erika’s treasured telescope and hands it to Troy.

Miuna: Her royal highness wanted you guys to have this.

Troy: That will MOST CERTAINLY come in handy.

Troy heads out to the front of the yacht, looks through the telescope, and spots the stricken helicopter.

https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=OD_GNiZ5gH8

Troy: THERE THEY ARE!!!!!!!  MOVE FASTER!!!!!!!  

Boat Skipper: YOU GOT IT SIR!!!!!

Chelia then looks in the glass window by her feet, and spots a boat…………

Chelia: LOOK, I SEE SOMETHING!!!!!

Cam: PERFECT!!!!  WE’VE DROPPED DOWN TO 3000 FEET, SO WE SHOULD JUST MAKE IT!!!!  THOUGH I STILL SUGGEST YOU GET THE LIFE JACKETS OUT AND PUT EM ON!!!!!

Chelia: SHOULD I UNDO MY SEAT BELT?????!!!!!

Cam: JUST THE SHOULDER STRAPS!!!!  ONLY TURN THE KNOB ON THE SEAT BELT CENTER HALF WAY TO UNDO THE SHOULDER STRAPS!!!!  THE LAP UNFASTENS AS WELL IF YOU TURN IT ALL THE WAY!!!!

Chelia: GOT IT!!!!

Chelia undoes her shoulder seatbelt straps, reaches under her seat, and puts on her lift jacket before refastening her shoulder straps for the seat belt.

Poe: I SEE OUR LIFE JACKETS ON THE BACK WALL!!!!

Cam: GOOD!!!!  PUT EM ON, BUT DO NOT INFLATE THEM!!!!!!!  

Finn: GOT IT!!!!!

Cam then calls Troy from his IPad, and Troy responds right away.

Troy: I see you Cam!!!!

Cam: I SEE YOU TOO!!!!  ONCE YOU GUYS GET TO THE HALF WAY POINT, TURN AROUND AND FACE AWAY FROM ME!!!!  I CAN’T USE MY RUDDER TO STEER, OR MY TAIL ROTOR COULD FALL OFF!!!!  I ONLY HAVE ONE SHOT AT THIS, OTHERWISE I HAVE NO CHOICE BUT TO DITCH!!!!!

Troy: NO PROBLEM!!!!!

Cam: OKAY, WE’RE AT 2000 FEET…………………………..

The helicopter soon glides further and further out of the sky, and only 900 feet of altitude is left when the yatch makes it to the half way point.

Troy: OKAY WE’RE HERE!!!!

Cam: GREAT!!!!  TURN AROUND, AND MOVE TO WHERE I NEED YOU!!!!

Troy: GOT IT!!!!  OKAY, TURN AROUND COMPLETELY 360 DEGREES, AND MOVE TO WHERE I TELL YOU!!!!

Boat Skipper: GOT IT!!!!!

Chelia gently places her hand on top of Cam’s as he tightly holds the collective in his hand.

Chelia: YOU CAN DO THIS CAM!!!!!  I BELIEVE IN YOU!!!!

Cam: THIS ISN’T THE FIRST TIME I’VE DONE AN AUTO-ROTATION LANDING, BUT THIS WILL BE THE HARDEST ONE CONSIDERING THAT IT’S MY FIRST TIME LANDING ON A BOAT, AND IT’S AN ALL OR NOTHING SHOT!!!!

Chelia: I STILL BELIEVE IN YOU CAM!!!!

Poe: SO DO WE!!!!!

Finn: YOU GOT THIS CAMARO!!!!!

Cam: OKAY………………TROY, YOU’RE JUST A LITTLE OFF TO THE LEFT, NOW MOVE A LITTLE MORE TO THE RIGHT!!!!

Troy: MOVE A LITTLE MORE TO THE RIGHT!!!!

Boat Skipper: GOT IT!!!!!

Cam: PERFECT!!!!!  STAY RIGHT THERE AND DON’T MOVE!!!!!!

Troy: OKAY!!!!  STOP AND STAY PUT!!!!!

Boat Skipper: GOT IT!!!!!

Alarms begin blaring about in the cabin………….

Alarm: TOO LOW TERRAIN!!!!!  PULL UP!!!!!  TOO LOW TERRAIN!!!!!!  PULL UP!!!!!!!

Cam: 100 FEET TO GO, NO TURNING BACK; THIS IS AN ALL OR NOTHING SHOT!!!!!

Chelia clings to Cam’s side tightly as he levels out and gets the helicopter right over the stern of the yacht.

Cam: OKAY!!!!

Cam pulls hard up on the collective lever, and gives the A-STAR a good flare just 15 feet above the deck before gently pushing the cyclic control stick forward, and pushing down on the collective lever.
With that the A-Star gently touches down on the rear deck of the Yacht.
Cam, Chelia, Poe, and Finn were safely on board the yacht at last………….

Cam: BOO & YA!!!!!

Troy: AWESOME!!!!  THEY’VE LANDED!!!!!!!

Cam: ALRIGHT YOU GUYS CAN GET OUT, BUT PLEASE EXIT TOWARDS THE FRONT!!!!

Poe & Finn: NO PROBLEM!!!!

Chelia then wraps her arms around Cam in a big hug.

Chelia: Thank you for bringing us here safely!!!!

Cam: It was an insane amount of luck that brought us here, and timing everything right.

Chelia: It wasn’t just that.  You’re an incredible pilot, and knew what you were doing.  I will admit I had my doubts at first, but I knew you’d bring us here safely and you did.

Cam: I still have a ways to go, but I’m learning!!!!  However Wendy and Carla are gonna kill me once they finds out about the stunt I pulled in the Keyhole!!!!

Chelia: *Giggles* I won’t tell em about that!!!! LOL!!!!  Your secret’s safe with me, I promise.

Chelia then gives Cam a gentle kiss on the cheek to show her appreciation before disembarking and follows Poe and Finn to join everyone else.
Cam however stays behind and finishes shutting everything down.

Cam: Well, everything’s shut down.  I’d dread to see what the tail rotor looks like.

Cam soon had his answer once the rotor blades stopped turning and after he made his way back to the large propeller tail rotor.

Cam: OH, FLYIN FUCKEN SHIT!!!!!!!!!!!

A large crack ran down the length of the entire tail rotor from end to end.

Cam: HAD I USED ANY HUGE RUDDER INPUTS AFTER THAT LOUD BANG, THE TAIL ROTOR WOULD HAVE FALLEN OFF, AND I WOULD HAVE BEEN FUCKED!!!!!!  I KNEW IT WAS BAD, BUT I WOULDN’T HAVE THOUGHT IT BE THIS BAD!!!!!  CARLA’S GONNA TURN ME INTO CAT NIP IF SHE FINDS OUT ABOUT THIS!!!!!

Without wasting time, Cam gets out his item storage gun, points it at the broken helicopter, and puts it in his item storage.


To Be Continued…………….

Chapter 27

Cut Throat Pirates: Enter Captain Blue Beard

Back at the boating dock by Main Street, both Burt and Mr. Prindle watch Princess Erika’s Royal Yacht disappear.

Mr. Prindle: UGH!!!! WE BLEW IT!!!!  The car’s on the ship, the girl’s on the ship, the helicopter’s on the ship………………

Burt: The things going up north!!!!

Mr. Prindle it has to pass through the Frozen Tundra before it can dock at the first harbor in Eatonville.

Burt: Ohhhhhh…………Ren’s not going to be happy about this………………

At the Underwater Castaway Sapphire Kingdom, Princess Erika heard all about the chaos, and was getting very worried……..

Princess Erika: OH NO!!!!  THIS WAS NOT SUPPOSED TO HAPPEN!!!!!  GRAND BAY LAKE HAS BEEN INVADED, AND THAT PUTS MY KINGDOM AND MY PEOPLE AT RISK!!!!!  I CAN’T LET THIS HAPPEN!!!!!

Princess Erika’s favorite Pink Spinner Dolphin, Sammy was freaking out, and was frantically squeaking like crazy.

Princess Erika: I KNOW I’M BOUND HERE BUT…………..WITH MY HAND MAIDENS, GUARDIAN, AND 2 ROYAL GUARDS AWAY ON A MISSION………….LOOKS LIKE MY ONLY OPTION IS TO JOIN THEM………………SAMMY, WAIT HERE!!!!  I’M GONNA GO GRAB SOME OF MY THINGS, AND WE’RE GOING!!!!

Princess Erika then runs up to her suite to grab a few of her things.
Meanwhile back at the loading dock, Ren was PISSED!!!!!

REN: I CAN’T BELIEVE YOU FOOLS LET A TINY LITTLE CAR CARRYING MY FUTURE BRIDE TO BE GET AWAY!!!!!
AND I ALSO CAN’T BELIEVE THAT MY POWERFUL ARMY OF FIGHTER JETS WAS TAKEN OUT BY A KID IN A SMALL A-STAR HELICOPTER !!!!!
FROM NOW ON, YOU DO THINGS MY WAY!!!!!!!

Mr. Prindle: WE WON’T LET YOU DOWN!!!!

Burt: WE’LL STOP EM!!!!!

Ren: MAKE SURE THAT YOU DO!!!!!  WENDY MARVELL IS ALL I WANT, AND I WILL STOP AT NOTHING TO GET HER, BUT………………I HAVE TO FINISH MY MISSION IN TAKING OVER THE MAGIC KINGDOM FOR MASTER DRAGO AND MISTRESS XAYIDE!!!!!

Burt: What do you want us to do???!!!!

Ren: I HAVE HIRED CAPTAIN BLUE BEARD AND HIS PIRATES IF A SITUATION LIKE THIS WERE TO OCCUR AND IT HAS!!!!
I WANT YOU TO BOARD HIS SHIP ASAP AND WORK UNDER HIS SUPERVISSION!!!!
I AM ALSO SENDING YOU A JAPANESE SUMO WRESTLER BODY GUARD NAMED HASHIMOTO!!!!!  IF ANYONE STEPS OUT OF LINE, HASHIMOTO AND THE PIRATES WILL DEAL WITH EM!!!!

Burt: GOT IT!!!!

Mr. Prindle: What is the plan?

Ren: The plan is for you to board Blue Beard’s sailing ship, The RLS Legacy.  It may look like an old fashioned Pirate Ship from the outside, but inside it is brand new, high tech, and state of the art with all the weapons and luxuries of a modern yacht!!!
Once on board with Blue Beard, you will pursue the Yacht that has Taken Wendy, and capture EVERYONE in the group!!!!  You Burt, will make sure EVERYONE stays imprisoned in the ship’s cargo bay, and NOT ONE PERSON LEAVES!!!!
However, if Captain Blue Beard wants to force someone to walk the plank, he can do so as he wishes.
You Mr. Prindle must ensure that Captain Blue Beard gets the ship through the Frozen Tundra, and makes it to port.
Once you dock, you will load EVERYONE on a train, and take em up to base camp outside of Tocoma.  
Once at Base Camp, you load everyone onto an airship to be taken to the Castle Realm.
When the air ship reaches the castle realm, you will have EVERYONE split up, and imprisoned in Morton Koopa’s Castle, Lemmy Koopa’s Castle, Wendy Koopa’s Castle, NOT to be confused with my fiancé Wendy Marvell by the way, Iggy & Larry Koopa’s Castles, Roy O. Koopa’s Castle, and of Course Ludwig Von Koopa’s Castle……………however, be advised that one castle also carries a sacred treasure!!!!  So which ever castle has the treasure, you skip it because a prisoner may break out with the treasure in hand...........
BUT YOU WILL HAVE WENDY imprisoned in KING DRAGO & QUEEN XAYIDE’S CASTLE!!!!
CAN YOU REMEMBER ALL THAT????!!!!!

Burt: Send all the girls except for one to the castle’s of the Koopalings, however skip the castle that has the treasure being guarded by a Koopaling!!!  Got it!!!!

Mr. Prindle: We can take care of that!!!!

Ren: To ensure no one gets passed Ludwig’s Castle, I have King Helmaroc, The Demon Bird guarding the tower leading to the beacon.  That Beacon lead’s to the entrance to King Drago and Queen Xayide’s Castle.  NO ONE SHALL pass King Helmaroc.

Burt: Sounds like a plan!!!!

Ren: You guys leave IMMEDIATELY because here comes the RLS LEGACY NOW!!!!
DON’T FAIL ME AGAIN!!!!

Mr. Prindle: GOT IT!!!!

Back at the Underwater Castaway Sapphire Kingdom, Princess Erika was finishing up packing up her things.

Princess Erika: OKAY!!!!  I’VE GOT MY MAKE UP KIT, GOT MY HAIRBRUSH, GOT MY HAIR DRYER, GOT AN EXTRA SKIRTED SWIMSUIT, GOT A PAIR OF SLIDERS, GOT MY BREATH MINTS, GOT MY CARDIGAN, GOT MY SOCKS, GOT MY PLATFORM SHOES, GOT LOTS OF WARM TOWELS FROM THE DRYER, GOT MY LIP GLOSS, GOT MY FAKE EYE LASHES, GOT MY FACE GLITTER, GOT MY EYE BROW MASCARA, GOT 10 MILLION KOLE, GOT MY HAIR SCRUNCHY, GOT MY HAIR BOW, GOT SOME HAIR PINS, GOT MY CELL PHONE, GOT MY TIARA, GOT SOME SWEETS IN CASE I GET HUNGRY, GOT MY PURSE, AND I’VE GOT EVERYTHING BUT THE PURSE STORED IN THE ITEM STORAGE GUN!!!!
OKAY, THAT’S EVERYTHING!!!!

Princess Erika then rushes back down to the palace’s royal swimming pool where she meets up with Sammy the Pink Spinner Dolphin.

Princess Erika: Okay girl!!!!  LET’S GO!!!!!

Princess Erika then hops on Sammy’s back, the 2 then dive down into the pool, and head out into the open water.

Princess Erika: Okay, I have my yacht tracked from my cell phone, so if we hurry, we can catch up to it within the hour.

On Princess Erika’s Royal Yacht, Cam shut himself up in the wheelhouse knowing that he was going to be in for a HUGE scolding from Carla and Wendy.

Boat Skipper: What are you doing sitting up here in the wheelhouse????!!!!!  You should be down below with your friends.

Cam: If I do that I’m dead.

Boat Skipper: Why do you say that?

Cam: Well…………………

Cam then tells the boat skipper everything from start to finish………………

Cam: And in order to lose those fighters, I had to pull dangerous stunt that us helicopter pilots are forbidden to perform with passengers on board……………..

Boat Skipper: Uh-OH!!!!

Cam: Then I lost my engine, and then I lost my tail rotor…………………..which led me to having to perform an emergency auto-rotation landing on the stern of your yacht.
I fear that once my friends Wendy and Carla find out about the stunts I pulled while in flight along with flying in inclement weather, and putting our friend Chelia’s life in danger along with Poe and Finn’s……………………………I probably won’t exist anymore, so……………………..I’m up here hiding……………….and when a girl gets pissed at you a girl gets PISSED at you…………………and when it’s 2 that are pissed off…………………….GAME OVER……………….

Boat Skipper: Sometimes you do what you can to protect those on your craft whether it be on a boat, or in a helicopter, and sometimes in order to protect your occupants, you have to risk your life as well as their lives.
Will you get in trouble for it?  Yes you will, but the big picture is, you did your job, you protected your passengers, and everyone made it back safely.  That’s all that matters………unfortunately, not everyone will understand at first, but give it time…….life’s too short to let some stupid drama crap to get in your way……..

Cam: You do make a good point, and the more I keep it from them, the more pissed off they’ll be, so I better go down and get it over with………………….

Back down in the main cabin below, Carla, Wendy, and Chelia were talking about what had happened.

Carla: When I found out about Ren my heart sank, but you have no idea how relieved I was to hear you were safe.

Wendy: I’m sorry I worried you, but Herbie protected me.  

Johnny 5: But all this time, you were in the trunk and I didn’t know about it!!!!  We got chased by his thugs!!!!

Wendy & Carla: WHAT?????!!!!!

Johnny 5: We were chased into a dead end of an alley way, but Herbie drove up along side the outer wall of a building, and we managed to get away.
But we were then chased into a parking garage near Metreo Center, but Herbie sent em on a wild goose chase as he sped up the spiral driveway leading to the roof.  But with nowhere else to go, he used 2 parked cars as a makeshift ramp, launched himself into the air, and jumped from the top of one parking garage to another.

Carla: WHAT?????!!!!!

Wendy: I was wondering why I hit my head on the inside of the trunk.

Johnny 5: And I was wondering where the high pitched ouch was coming from when we had landed on the roof of the neighboring parking garage.  Turns out it was because you hit your head on the inside of bonnet while hiding in the trunk.
Then we got chased into the Sheraton Palace Hotel, but Herbie manages to get us through the Garden Court Restaurant before taking us through the hotel’s kitchen.
We escape out the backdoor, a few more of Ren’s thugs try to cut off our escape route, but a helicopter flying overhead clears our path, and we manage to make it to safety.

Carla: And why didn’t you bother telling me all of this????!!!!!

Wendy: I had no idea where I was at!!!!!!

Johnny 5: Herbie and I were just trying to get away!!!!!  I had no idea Wendy was hiding in the trunk………………………….And why would they be chasing us anyways………..Herbie, did a group of thieves hide a diamond in your gas tank again????!!!!!!

Wendy: The thing is………………

Carla: Ren is Wendy’s former suitor and is stopping at nothing to get her……………..

Johnny 5: Oh!!!!!

Wendy: Because I was hiding in the trunk, he chased after you and Herbie, and now I’ve dragged you 2 into my mess………………….I’m so sorry……………………..

Carla: You have nothing to be ashamed for Child………………..neither of us ever dreamt that we’d encounter Ren again.

Chelia: We’re just glad you’re safe Wendy……………

Wendy: How did you end up in a helicopter?

Chelia: Well, after you and I branched off I found myself winding up on the Resort Strip outside the Delano Hotel, and there I see Cam, Poe, and Finn loading a cannon into a helicopter……………I then knew that it was my safest bet to get out of there, but………………………

Poe: When we tried to fight off the enemy army of fighters…………..

Finn: They were soon on our tail……………

Cam: The plan was to then draw them out as far away from the city as possible, so innocent civilians wouldn’t get caught up.  The last thing we wanted were fatalities of innocent civilians on our hands………………… unfortunately I kinda took matters into my own hands…………………….

Troy: There you are Cam!!!!  We were wondering where the heck you were!!!!!

Wendy: Yeah, I was getting kinda worried.

Cam: I was surveying the damage on the helicopter, and it’s pretty substantial…………………………We were shot at multiple times by the enemy fighters that I had no choice but to fly into Isla Nublar during a tropical storm……………………the thing is at the Airbus Helicopters Training Academy, flying into inclement weather is inevitable…………………however enemy fighter jets were not built for flying into storms, so we managed to lose some of them in the thick fog while in the valleys…………………………..

Chelia: The fog was so thick that you couldn’t even see what is in front of you…………….

Finn: Not to mention that it was some pretty NASTY rain!!!!!!

Poe: I’m just glad there was no thunder and lightening!!!!!!!

Cam: The enemy fighters soon realized our tactics, but luckily by relying on my instruments such as my radars and satellite navigation units, along with my altimeter, and artificial horizon………………..I was able to fly out of the fog and find my whereabouts………………..it soon turned out that I was flying over the massive amphitheater keyhole at the far end of Hilawe Gorge…………………….

Troy: Is that when you……………………..

Cam: Yes……………………………….enemy fighters showed up in drones, left right, front, and back and began shooting at us from all directions………………..knowing my location, and know that I had to get out of there, I only had one escape route……………and that was to drop straight down over 4000 feet from the top of the Keyhole to near the bottom………………we barely had 20 feet of clearance below us from the top of the trees when I pulled up on the collective and got us to hover out of the fall…………………………..Fortunately it all worked out in our favor because the enemy fighters then ended up crashing into one another and/or shot each other down…………………..what I didn’t think about until the very last second was falling debris from the wrecked fighters……………………….right as we were flying out of the keyhole and through Hilawe Canyon, falling debris struck the engine, and then the tail rotor……………..alarms start going off in the cabin about the engine over heating, but I just managed to get us out of Isla Nublar…………I managed to get us back up to 5000 feet above the water, and that’s when I called you…………….

Troy: Now it’s starting to make sense………………

Cam: I knew that my helicopter had taken serious damage and wouldn’t stay air bourn for much longer.  Shortly after I ended the first call with you, I heard a very loud bang, and at that moment I knew that my tail rotor had given out…………..then alarms start blaring at me and informing me that my tail rotor had been badly damaged, and it was at that moment that I knew I had no choice but to shut off the engine, but thankfully I still had 5000 feet of altitude to plan the emergency auto-rotation landing, but had you not made it in time, my fall back plan was to ditch……….

Troy: Ditch as in a water landing like what happened with the Bristow Helicopters Flight 56 Charlie in the North Sea?

Cam: EXACTLY!!!!!  That is what I was preparing for in a worst case scenario.  Thankfully the waters here in Sapphire Bay are gentle, and MUCH BETTER for emergency water landings than the rough currents on the North Sea.  I figured that was a good fall back plan if you guys were a minute or 2 too late, hence why Poe, Finn, and Chelia were wearing life jackets when they disembarked.   Thankfully you guys heard my plea and came into view.  Because of that, I was able to perform a successful auto-rotation landing, gently touch down near the stern of the boat, and get everyone to safety.
However after I shut down the aircraft, I had a good look at the damage that had been done, and needless to say that it was MUCH WORSE than I had originally thought…………..

Troy: What was the extent?

Cam: The loud bang was literally the tail rotor nearly breaking in half, for a HUGE crack now runs down the center of the tail rotor blade from end to end.
Thankfully when a tail rotor is damaged, you’re trained to use little to almost NO pedal movement for yaw because one slip could be the difference between life and death.   There were not strong winds to blow us off course, and with good communication from our skipper, we managed to safely bring the helicopter to safety on a straight shot.   Goodness knows what danger would could have been in had I used any rudder inputs, or if there were strong cross winds blowing us off course………………………….

This made Carla and Wendy VERY upset and almost speechless……………….Carla then walked up to Cam and smacked him VERY HARD in the face with a VERY LOUD……………………


SLAP!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!

Carla stared long and hard at him while huffing and puffing with tears in her eyes before she wrapped her arms around Cam and gave him a big hug, and Wendy soon wrapped her arms around him too…………………..

Carla: WE WERE SO WORRIED!!!!!!  And I’m still angry at you for putting Chelia’s life in danger, but what’s important is………………..

Wendy: You’re all okay………………………that’s all that matters now…………………….

Carla: Just promise me you won’t put yourself or Chelia’s life in danger again…………………….

Cam: I promise………………..

Chelia: What amazes me is how you were able to remain calm throughout the flight despite how bad things were………………..

Poe: And you said that was your first time flying in combat……………………

Cam: It may have been my first time flying in combat, but not my first time in combat itself.   Ya see both Troy and I are level 10 black belts, and we’re trained to prepare for where our enemies might strike.
Plus at the Airbus Helicopters Training Academy, it is IMPARATIVE that you learn how to fly in inclement weather with almost zero visibility, and to rely on your instruments when that happens.  Plus it’s also a requirement to perform autorotation landings without engine power in order to get your pilot’s license.  
And no matter what the conditions maybe, they can change on you within the blink of an eye, so a fall back plan must always be taken into account.

Chelia: That’s amazing!!!!!  Both Poe and Finn were freaking out, but how you stayed calm is beyond me……….

Poe: Hey, Finn was the one who was cursing up a storm there!!!!!

Finn: SHUT UP, MAN!!!!!

Cam: Well if you thought this emergency landing was scary, well it was a walk in the park compared to the emergency landing Christian McDirmid had to perform on his first shot in The Winged Pilot.  LOL!!!!

Troy: NOW THAT WAS SCARY!!!!!

Cam: It was a training test flight like any other, but it was his first time flying at night…….....

Troy: But a thunder & lightening storm came out of nowhere………….heck rain wasn't even in the forecast!!!!!

Cam: It was his first time flying at night, and he had no experience flying in inclement weather.  To make this worse he was flying a MUCH OLDER AS-350, a BA Model A-Star that wasn’t designed to handle heavy volumes of water during a storm.

Troy: But all that water coming from hail the size of gumballs killed his engine, and since his helicopter didn’t have duel controls, his instructor couldn’t take over……….

Cam: Meaning he had to perform an auto-rotation landing at night in bad weather on his first time with no prior experience.

Troy: And visibility was VERY poor too!!!!!

Cam: But he pulled it off in the end, and got both himself and his instructor safely back on the ground of the training academy.

Chelia: WOW!!!!!

Wendy: THAT’S AMAZING!!!!!!

Carla: THANK GOODNESS YOU AND CHELIA WERE NOT IN A SITUATION LIKE THAT!!!!!

Cam: I have experience in flying in bad weather, performing emergency auto-rotation landings, and flying at night.  But if that happened to me on my first time, I would have most likely crashed…………...So if you think I’m a skilled pilot, I still have a ways to catch up to Christian McDirmid, and Tom Cruise since I trained along side him at academy.

Troy: Hey, the important thing is, you made it back here safely, and you brought Poe, Finn, and Chelia back here safely.

Wendy: Yeah, that’s all that matters………….

Carla: It still angers me to know what had happened, but I’m grateful that you brought Poe, Finn, and Chelia back here safely.

Both Wendy and Princess Mackenzie give Cam gentle kisses on the cheeks………..

Wendy: Thank you for bringing my best friend back safely……………

Princess Mackenzie: You really are amazing!!!!

Cam: (UGH OH BOY!!!!!  BUT I CAN GET USED TO THIS!!!! LOL!!!!!)

Manaka: Well, it seems we’re out of Grand Bay Lake’s territory, and on our way to the Frozen Tundra.  

Miuna: There is a small town just south of the Tundra, but there are no boat landings there.

Ramsley: The only form of transportation from the small town of Elbe to the larger town of Eatonville where the Harbor is by train.  
The train however travels RIGHT through the Tundra before arriving in Eatonville just 30 miles away.

Helmsley: However the train line terminates at the town of Tocoma at far northern boarder by the Castle Realm, which is enemy territory.  The only way onwards from Tocoma and into enemy territory is by road.

Cam: So this means, once we get to Eatonvile, our best bet is to charter train up to the Tocoma near the boarder 25 miles north.

Troy: That’s where you come in!!!!

Cam: No problem!!!!

Troy: Once we get to Tocoma, I will rally up as much people as possible to build us the army we need.
Then one by one we will take down the Koopalings Iggy, Lemmy, Larry, Wendy, Morton, Roy O, and Ludwig before we fight Rin, and take out King Drago and Queen Xayide.

Just then gunfire is heard………………..

BANG………………..BANG!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!

Twilight: WHAT THE HECK WAS THAT????!!!!!

Luna: STAY BACK GIRLS!!!!!

Celestia: I DIDN’T LIKE THE SOUND OF THAT!!!!!

Cam gets out his sword The Night Sky and prepares for a fight.

Captain Blue Beard and his gang of pirates attack the yacht, and latch grappling hooks on the side of it from their ship the RLS Legacy.

Blue Beard: ARRRRRRRRRGGGGGGGGG!!!!!!!!!   COME ON BOYS!!!!!  TIME TO GET SOME BOOTY, AND TAKE EVERYONE PRISONER!!!!!

Pirates: YEAH!!!!!!

Blue Beard and his pirates swing off their ship, and onto the yacht instantly taking the skipper hostage.

Blue Beard: ARRRRRRRGGGGGGGG!!!!!!!!!!   YOUR SHIP BELONGS TO ME NOW BOY!!!!!!!  

Boat Skipper: UH-OH!!!!!

Troy: CAM, LET’S GO!!!!!

Cam: RIGHT!!!!!   COME ON HERBIE!!!!

Herbie: BEEP, BEEP!!!!

Troy: JOHNNY 5????!!!!!!

Johnny 5: I’M ON IT!!!!

Poe: FINN & I ARE WITH YOU!!!!!

Rami: SO ARE WE!!!!

Helmsley: WE’VE GOT YOUR BACKS!!!!

Troy: AWESOME!!!!!

Blue Beard: ARRRRRRGGGGGGG!!!!!!!!  TAKE EVERYTHING YOU CAN GRAB ON TO OUR SHIP, AND SINK THIS ONE!!!!!

Cam: NOT SO FAST!!!!!

Blue Beard: OH???!!!!  WHAT’S THIS WE HAVE HERE????!!!!!  A COUPLE CABIN BOYS, I SEE??????!!!!!!

Cam: YOU WISH, BEARDO!!!!!!

Blue Beard: ARRRRRRGGGGGGG!!!!!!!  NO ONE, AND I REPEAT, NO ONE CALLS ME BEARDO!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!

Cam: I JUST DID!!!!!!!

Troy: OKAY EVERYBODY!!!!!!  CHARGE!!!!!!!

A fight then brakes out on the main deck of the yacht as all the guys from our friends group face off against Captain Blue Beard and his pirates giving Burt and Mr. Prindle the chance they needed.

Mr. Prindle: YOU GET THE GIRLS I’LL GET THE VALUABLES!!!!!!

Burt: YOU GOT IT!!!!

Burt, Mr. Prindle, and their body guard Hashimoto, get out a large ramp, extend it from the RLS Legacy to the Royal Yacht, and waste no time to set to work.

Cam: WHAT THE????!!!!  SOMETHING’S NOT RIGHT HERE!!!!!

As Cam attempts to check out what’s going on, Captain Blue Beard stops him.

Blue Beard: ARRRRRGGGGG!!!!!!!!!  WHERE DO YE THINK YE GOIN?????!!!!!!!  I’M AIN’T DONE WITH YE YET!!!!!!!!!!  AAAAAAAARRRRRRRGGGGGGGG!!!!!!!!

As our friends fight off the pirate a BUNCH of screams are heard coming from the cabin……………..

Princess Chloe: *SCREAMS*  AAAAAAAAHHHHHHHH!!!!!!  WHAT DO YOU THINK YOU’RE DOING????!!!!!!

Sayu: YOU PUT US DOWN THIS INSTANT YOU CREEP!!!!!

Princess Mackenzie: *SCREAMS*  AAAAAAAAAAHHHHHHH!!!!!!!!!  STAY AWAY FROM ME YOU DISGUSTING PERVERT!!!!!!

Miuna: TAKE YOUR HANDS OFF ME!!!!!!

Wendy: YOU TAKE YOUR HANDS OFF THEM RIGHT NOW!!!!!!

Chelia: WE WON’T TOLERATE ANYONE WHO HURTS OUR FRIENDS!!!!!!!

Carla: YOU MESS WITH MY GIRLS YOU MESS WITH ME!!!!!!!!

Manaka: SAME HERE!!!!!!!

Wendy & Chelia: SKY MAGIC ROOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOAAAAAAARRRRRRRRR!!!!!!!!!!

Using their sky magic, Wendy and Chelia send Burt, Mr. Prindle, and Hashimoto flying out the side of the cabin as a large gaping hole is blown through the wall.

Herbie: BEEEEEEEEEEEEEP, BEEEEEEEEEEEEPP!!!!!!!

Herbie revs up his engine and chases after multiple pirates on the deck before spraying oil at their feet causing them all to trip.

Pirates: WOOOOOOOOOOOOOOAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAHHHHH!!!!!!!!!!

Herbie then side swipes a few pirates as he performs donuts before knocking some away as he hits em with the doors.

Mr. Prindle: WE GOTTA STOP THAT CAR!!!!!!!

Johnny 5 then shoots his cannon, sending a bunch of pirates flying over board, and into the icy water below.

Johnny 5: NOT ON MY WATCH!!!!!!!  

Burt: THE ROBOT TOO!!!!!!

Meanwhile Princess Erika and Sammy have their yacht in sight, but as they get closer, their hearts sink.

Princess Erika: OH NOOOOOO!!!!!!  IT’S THE RLS LEGACY!!!!!  THAT CAN ONLY MEAN ONE THING…………………….CAPTAIN BLUE BEARD………………………..WE HAVE TO HELP EM, HURRY!!!!!!!

Our friends were soon making quick work of the pirates, but Captain Blue Beard wasn’t even close to being defeated when he gave an evil grin……………

Blue Beard: HHHAAAAAAA, HAAAAAAAA!!!!!!!  YE MAY THINK YE HAVE US OUT MATCHED, EH?????!!!!!!!!!  WRONG!!!!!!!!!
COME ON BOYS!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!

Burt: WE’VE GOT REINFORCEMENTS!!!!!!!!!!

Mr. Prindle: JUMP THAT CAR AND THE ROBOT TOO!!!!!

More of Blue Beard’s, and Burt’s reinforcements jumped aboard the yacht, and didn’t hesitate to put our friends in their place.
Hashimoto made his way over to Troy, and Troy thought he’d easily take him out with Karate and Kung Fu, but NOTHING WORKED!!!!!

Troy: UH-OH!!!!  I CAN’T SHAKE THIS GUY!!!!!!!!!  

Hashimoto picks Troy up, puts his hand on Troy’s jugular, and instantly knocks him unconscious…………..

Cam: TROY, NOOOOOOOOO!!!!!!!!

Blue Beard: AAAAARRRRRRRGGGGG!!!!!!!  YE BROTHER CAN’T SAVE YE FRIENDS NOW!!!!!!!!!!  HAAAAAAAAA, HAAAAAAAAA, HAAAAAAAA, HAAAAAAAAA, HAAAAAAAAA, HAAAAAAAAAAA, HAAAAAAAAAAAAAA!!!!!!!!!!!

This just made Cam angrier and angrier as he and Blue Beard crossed swords repeatedly as they fought their way across the large ramp leading away from the yacht, and straight onto the enemy’s ship, the RLS Legacy, giving Blue Beard and his pirates the upper hand.

Blue Beard: I GOT THIS KID; YE BOYS TAKE THE REST!!!!!!

Mr. Prindle gets a gang of thugs to sneak up on Herbie from behind without letting him notice while supervising everyone from the roof of the wheelhouse above…………………

Mr. Prindle: GOOD, YOU’RE ALMOST THERE……………………….

Slowly but surely, Mr. Prindles thugs get closer and closer to Herbie when Mr. Prindle gives the signal……………..

Mr. Prindle: NOOOOOOOWWWWWWWWW!!!!!

ALL of Mr. Prindle’s thugs jump on top Herbie, and Herbie makes a run for it as he guns his throttle to the floor, but an escape was out of the question………………….he was soon blocked off by Burt’s thugs and had nowhere left to run…………..

Mr. Prindle: GOOD WORK BOYS!!!!!  NOW GET THIS THING TO THE CARGO BAY OF OUR SHIP!!!!!  THEN CHOCK THE WHEELS REAL GOOD!!!!!!

This makes Johnny 5 VERY angry after witnessing his friend getting captured.

Johnny 5: OH NO, YOU DON’T DO THAT TO HERBIE!!!!!!!!

Mr. Prindle: BOYS, CRATE HIM!!!!!!!

A crate is soon dropped over Johnny 5, and it’s soon bolted up good and tight with no way of escape.

Johnny 5: HEY!!!!!  WHAT ARE YOU DOING????!!!!!!  THIS IS NOT FUNNY!!!!!!  YOU GET ME OUT OF HERE OR YOU’LL REGRET IT!!!!!!!

Mr. Prindle: THROW HIM INTO THE CARGO BAY!!!!!!

Wendy: NOOOOOO!!!!!!  SKY MAGIC, ROOOOOOOOOOOOAAAAARRRRR!!!!!!!

Carla: MEEEEEEEEEEEEEEOOOOOOOOOWWWWWW!!!!!!!!

Combining their powers, Wendy sends Carla hurtling towards Mr. Prindle, and Carla gives Mr. Prindle a good scratch in the face making him VERY ANGRY!!!!

Mr. Prindle: NOW YOU’VE DONE IT MISSY!!!!!  GET HER!!!!!!!!

Chelia: SKY MAGIC ROAR!!!!!!!!!!!!

Using her magic, Chelia clears a path for Carla to escape, but things were not looking good………….

Princess Chloe: TROY, ANSWER ME!!!!!!!  WHAT DID YOU JERKS DO TO TROY?????!!!!!!

Manaka: OW!!!!!  GET YOUR HANDS OFF ME!!!!!

Miuna: UN HAND ME RIGHT NOW!!!!!!

Sayu: GET YOUR GRUBBY HANDS OFF OF ME YOU PERVERTS!!!!!!

Twilight: UNHAND US RIGHT NOW!!!!!!

Celestia: YOU WON’T BE GETTING AWAY WITH THIS!!!!!

Luna: WE WILL SEE TO IT THAT YOU ARE SENTENCED FOR LIFE IN THE DUNGEON!!!!!!!

Poe: LET GO OF ME YOU ASS HOLE!!!!!!

Finn: THIS IS FUCKEN BULLSHIT!!!!!

Helmsley: YOU WILL PAY FOR THIS!!!!!

Ramsley: DAMN YOU ALL TO HELL!!!!!

Burt: LOOKS LIKE YOU’VE LOST!!!!  HASHIMOTO, GRAB THE GIRLS!!!!!

Chelia: OH NO YOU DON’T!!!!!

Hashimoto picks up Chelia, and carries her off the Yacht and onto the RLS Legacy as Carla watches in horror……….

Carla: YOU PUT HER DOWN THIS INSTANT!!!!!

Mr. Prindle: SHUT UP CAT!!!!!

Mr. Prindle’s thugs grab Carla, and drain her of her magic transforming her back into a cat, and knocking her unconscious.

Wendy: CARLA NOOOOOOOO!!!!!!!!!!!!

Mr. Prindle: You be a good little girl, and your punishment will be minor.  But if you misbehave, things are gonna get much worse.  

Wendy’s eyes filled tears as she followed Burt, Mr. Prindle, Hashimoto, and the rest of their gang of pirates as they carry their friends off the yacht and onto the RLS Legacy.
It was beginning to look helpless as Cam and Blue Beard fought away near the bow of the ship.

Blue Beard: AAAAAAARRRRRRRGGGGGGGGG!!!!!!!!!  YE FRIENDS ARE ALL TIED UP NOW, BOY!!!!!  YE BETTER SURRENDER OR ELSE……………………….

Cam: NO WAY!!!!!!!!

Judging his moment, Cam grabs Blue Beard’s long beard, and judging his moment, uses his sword Night Sky like a knife, and cuts the long beard just below the chin before ripping it right off.
This made EVERYONE in his crew grow as pale as a ghost for they all knew how proud Captain Blue Beard was of his long beard, and no one would dare even touch it let alone cut it.

Mr. Prindle: OH BOY!!!!!!!!!

Burt: HE’S TOAST!!!!!!

Hashimoto: OOOOOOOOOOOOOOO!!!!!!!!

Herbie: BEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEPPPPP!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!

Chelia: BAD MOVE CAM!!!!!!

Johnny 5: UH-OH NOT GOOD!!!!!

Finn: YOU’VE DONE IT NOW!!!!!

Wendy: OH NO, CAM!!!!!!

Pirates: OH HE’S IN SERIOUS TROUBLE NOW!!!!!

Blue Beard: AAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAARRRRRRRRRRRRRRGGGGGGGGGGGG!!!!!!!!!!!   NO ONE TOUCHES ME BEARD AND GETS AWAY WITH IT!!!!!!!

Cam: WELL I JUST DID…………….BEARDO……….HAAAAAAAA, HAAAAAAAAA, HAAAAAAAAA, HAAAAAAAAAAA, HAAAAAAAAAAAAAAA!!!!!!!!!!!!

Blue Beard: AAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAARRRRRRRRRRRRRGGGGGGGGGGGGGGGGG!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!

Blue Beard charges at Cam, and thrusts his sword at him repeatedly.  Cam dodges his attacks only to jump right onto the plank……………………

Blue Beard: AAAAARRRRRRGGGGGGG!!!!!!  IT IS PERFECT!!!!!!!!!!  YE ARE RIGHT WHERE ME WANT YE!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!  IT IS TIME WE DO THINGS THE OLD FASHIONED WAY AGAIN!!!!!!!!!

Herbie’s headlamps widen and he begins shaking like crazy as memories of Captain Blythe forcing him to walk the plank many decades ago come flooding back as he watches Cam now being forced to walk the plank.
More tears poured down Wendy’s face as she helplessly watched in horror………..

Wendy: CAM NOOOOO!!!!!

https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=Y5ruA6ipcIg

Blue Beard: BY THE POWER VESTED IN ME AS CAPTAIN OF THIS SHIP!!!!!  ME HERE BY DEEM THIS WE LAD HERE A MENICE TO LIFE, LIM, AND THE VERY SAFETY OF ME SHIP!!!!!!   ME HERE WITH COMMIT HIM TO THE SEA…………AND HIS FATE WELL DESERVED………………………….OFF HATS!!!!!!!
YE LAD………………..WILL BE SWIMMING WITH DAVY JONES!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!

Cam: UH-OH!!!!  THAT DOESN’T SOUND GOOD!!!!!!

Herbie was soon crying just like he was when he had to walk the plank many years ago now that his new owner was being forced to do it, and shortly after Herbie started crying, Wendy was crying really hard too………..

Wendy: CAM NOOOOOO!!!!!!!  YOU CAN’T GO THROUGH WITH THIS!!!!!!!!!!!

Cam: THIS IS NOT THE END OF ME………………..I WILL COME BACK FOR YOU GUYS…………………..I PROMISE…………………….YOU HAVE MY WORD!!!!!

Wendy: CAM……………………NOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOO!!!!!!!!!!!!!

And like that, Cam voluntarily jumped off the plank, and straight into the icy waters below………………………..

Blue Beard: ARRRRRRRRRRRGGGGGGG!!!!!!!!!!  SERVED HIM RIGHT!!!!!!  NOW TAKE THESE PRISONERS TO THE CARGO HOLD!!!!!!
PRINDLE, GRAB AHOLD OF ANY LEFT OVER BOOTY ABOARD THE YACHT, AND THEN DESTROY IT!!!!!!

Mr. Prindle: YES SIR!!!!

Blue Beard: BURT!!!!  YOU AND HASHIMOTO GUARD THE CARGO BAY!!!!!  MAKE SURE NO ONE ESCAPES!!!!!!!

Burt: YOU GOT IT!!!!!!!!

One by one, all of our friends were soon taken down into the cargo bay, and all thrown into one MASSIVE jail sell.  All 4 of Herbie’s wheels were chocked good and tight as he was imprisoned right across from the jail sell.
Johnny 5’s crate was placed on the floor of the cargo bay a few yards away from Herbie across from the jail sell.
Mr. Prindle, Burt, and Hashimoto managed to get ahold of Rami’s Ford Shelby GT Mustang, and Toby’s Koenigsegg Agera.  The cars were soon parked in the RLS Legacy’s Cargo Bay next to Herbie across the large jail sell, and had all 4 of their wheels chocked.
Burt and Mr. Prindle were feeling VERY pleased with themselves.

Burt: ALRIGHT!!!!!!  WE GOT THE PRISONERS!!!!!

Mr. Prindle: With the main pest gone, the job is as good as done!!!!!

Burt: And best of all, these 2 cars here cost A FORTUNE!!!!  

Mr. Prindle: YEAH!!!!  THIS MUSTANG WAS HAND BUILT BY CAROL SHELBY HIMSELF BEFORE HE DIED!!!!!

Burt: WE CAN MAKE SOME SERIOUS MONEY OF THEM!!!!

Mr. Prindle: YOU GOT THAT RIGHT!!!!!!  NOW, TO DESTROY THE YACHT!!!!!!

While Burt stays down patrolling the cargo bay with Hashimoto, Mr. Prindle returns to the RLS Legacy’s top deck to destroy the Royal Yacht.

Blue Beard: ALRIGHT!!!!!  WE GOT OUR PRISONERS, AND WE GOT OUR BOOTY!!!!! NOW ALL WE NEED IS TO DESTROY THE YACHT!!!!!

Mr. Prindle: YOU GOT IT!!!!!

Blue Beard: FIRE THE CANNONS AWAY!!!!!!!

Blue Beard’s pirates fire their cannons, and with VERY LOUD………………

BANG………………………BANG……………….KABOOM……………..KABLEMO!!!!!!!!!!!!!!

The Royal Yacht was soon destroyed just as Princess Erika and Sammy arrived………….she had seen EVERYTHING

Princess Erika: OH NO!!!!!  WE’RE TOO LATE……………………….My yacht…………….it’s gone……………………………….but, no time to cry about that………………WE HAVE TO FIND CAM………………….HE’S OUT THERE SOMEWHERE IN THESE ICY COLD WATERS!!!!!  HE DOESN’T HAVE ANY PROTECTION WHATSOEVER, AND IT TAKES A LOT LONGER TO FREEZE THAN IT DOES TO DROWN NO MATTER HOW GOOD OF A SWIMMER YOU ARE!!!!!
My swimsuits help me adapt to different water temperatures, and keeps me warm in icy waters, you Sammy have the ability to change color to help you adapt to different water temperatures, but Cam doesn’t have ANY of it!!!!  He could die if we don’t find him………………

Wasting no time, Princess Erika sets off to find Cam, knowing that it’s now a matter between life or death for him.
As for what happened to Rami and Toby, it’s hard to say what happened to them.  It’s like they both disappeared without a trace………………..poor Wendy keeps crying her eyes out feeling like this whole mess with her fault now that all of our friends are imprisoned………………..A battle may have been lost, but the war is far from over………………


To Be Continued………………….

Chapter 28:

Cam Revived, Burt Wears A Dress, & Herbie Gets Away

Rami and Toby had snuck aboard the RLS Legacy during the fight with the pirates, and hid in the cargo bay to disguise themselves as pirates when Burt runs across them.

Burt: HEY!!!!  WHAT ARE YOU GUYS DOING DOWN HERE????!!!!!!   I THOUGHT I TOLD YOU TO HELP OUT ON MAIN DECK!!!!

Rami: YES SIR!!!!!

Toby: RIGHT AWAY SIR!!!!!

Burt: AND FETCH ME MY POTATOE SOUP!!!!!  I’M GETTING HUNGRY!!!!!

Rami: YES SIR!!!!!

Burt: NOW GET MOVING!!!!

Toby: OF COURSE SIR!!!!

Toby and Rami then left the cargo bay, and walked up to the main deck.  Neither of em liked Burt and his entitlement, so they thought up of a plan in an attempt to help out their friends.

Rami: GEEZE!!!!  What’s his problem???!!!!

Toby: He’s an asshole, that’s his problem!!!!

Rami: Thinking he can treat those who work for him like dirt!!!!!  People like that piss me off!!!!

Toby: Which is why I plan on sneaking a few drops of this in his soup……………

Toby pulls out a laxative bottle, and Rami instantly likes the plan.

Rami: PERFECT!!!!!  THAT WILL SHOW HIM!!!!

Toby: Just one drop of this will have him stuck in the bathroom for hours.

Rami: EXCELLENT!!!!  Let’s get to work!!!!

Not to far away in the jail sell, Wendy was crying her eyes out feeling guilty about the whole attack.  She strongly felt that the whole ordeal was her fault………………….

Wendy: I’M SOOOOOO SORRY EVERYONE…………………….I’M REALLY SORRY………………..

Chelia: Wendy, you have nothing to be sorry for……………..

Princess Mackenzie: Yeah, none of this is your fault……………we didn’t know something like this would happen……………..

Wendy: NO!!!!  IT IS MY FAULT!!!!!!  IF IT WEREN’T FOR ME RUNNING AWAY FROM REN, WE WOULDN’T BE STUCK HERE, CARLA WOULDN’T HAVE GOTTEN HURT, YOUR LIVES WOULDN’T BE IN DANGER AND CAM………………………..WOULD STILL BE WITH US…………………….

Princess Chloe: Wendy sweetie, you can’t blame yourself for this………………..

Carla soon wakes up and walks up to Wendy………………..

Carla: Child, you can’t blame this burden on yourself………………Ren’s a creep, and don’t forget who he’s working for………………

Wendy: STILL……………..CHELIA’S LIFE WAS PUT IN DANGER, TROY WAS KNOCKED UNCONCIOUS, JOHNNY 5 IS LOCKED IN A CRATE, HERBIE HAS BEEN IMPOUNDED, YOU GOT HURT, AND CAM WAS FORCED TO WALK THE PLANK BECAUSE OF ME…………………

Troy: No that was Cam’s stupidity in doing an action without thinking that made him walk the plank.  It was his fault that he had to walk the plank, not yours…………………But whose fault it is doesn’t matter.  Cam is actually a VERY GOOD swimmer; in fact, he’s an even stronger swimmer than Princess Erika.  There is no doubt in my mind that he survived.  The icy cold water maybe a challenge for him, but knowing his determination, that won’t be enough to kill him.

Cadence: Wendy, you have nothing to be sorry for.  Cam made a stupid decision, but none of this was your fault.  Ren is an overly entitled jerk, and he doesn’t own you.  

Twilight: EXACTLY!!!!!  Besides, he works for King Drago and Queen Xayide!!!!  He’s their puppet in making sure their plans work accordingly…………………….

Manaka: Getting to you was only a bonus, but not the top priority……………….

2 other girls, Nina Yamada and Ayumi Otosaka were also imprisoned in the same jail cell because Ren wanted them as his mistresses.

Nina: Excuse me, but we’ve been in here while everything happened……………

Ayumi: Ren wants us as his mistresses, and has us trapped here for that very reason, so you’re not alone…………

Nina: Yeah, but none of us are the top priority because of his obligation in getting the entire Magic Kingdom under King Drago and Queen Xayide’s command.

Poe: This is not your fault Wendy………….

Finn: None of it is…………..

Celestia: Sweetie, you’re a wonderful little girl, and have a great big heart.  You didn’t know any better.  None of us saw this happening…………

Luna: However, King Drago and Queen Xayide were gonna strike sooner or later, and they have.  They just struck before we anticipated.

Chelia: Yeah, so cheer up Wendy……………no need to be a crybaby, everything will be just fine………………….

Troy: As for Cam, he will find a way to get to safety……………….

Johnny 5: I remember him saying he’d come back for us………………

Wendy: Now that you think about it, I remember that to……………….

Troy: And when Cam says something that serious he means it.  He’s a man of his word, and never goes back on it.
However, one of us can escape if we time things right, and if we get rid of that sumo wrestler there………………….There was a scene in a certain movie where a certain car we know all too well, got impounded on a ship, had his wheels chocked, and yet managed to get out by just angling all 4 wheels diagonally. If he did it once, I'm quite sure he can do it again!!!

Troy winked at Herbie and Herbie turned on his headlamps, and flashed em twice.

Troy: And it looks like Herbie read my mind!!!!  However we have a bigger threat than that sumo wrestler, and that’s his boss Burt!!!!!!!

Out in the water, Cam had swum out as far as he could without being detected, but the icy water was getting to him, and draining his life force fast……………………luckily help was not too far away.

Princess Erika: I don’t see anything out here Sammy…………………he couldn’t have drowned though……………he just couldn’t have……………………

Sammy starts squeaking and splashing like crazy, for she just spotting something out of the corner of her eyes.

Princess Erika: Hey, what is it girl?  Did you find something?

Sammy nodded and squeaked in response, and Princess Erika soon spotted it too.

Princess Erika: THAT MIGHT BE HIM!!!!!  WE HAVE NO TIME TO LOSE!!!!

Princess Erika and Sammy made a mad dash over, and sure enough what they were looking at was Cam as he was slowly starting to lose consciousness as his body went into shock from the icy cold temperatures.

Princess Erika: SAMMY!!!!!  YOU WERE RIGHT IT’S HIM!!!!!  WE HAVE TO HELP HIM!!!!!

Cam’s eyes slowly began to close and his movement came to grinding halt when Sammy bit him on the left arm to grab ahold of him.

Princess Erika: PERFECT!!!!!  GOOD FIND SAMMY GIRL!!!!!!  WE HAVE TO TAKE HIM TO SHORE RIGHT AWAY!!!!!!

Princess Erika gets her phone out of her purse, and sees that the nearest shore outside the town of Elbe was only 2 miles away.

Princess Erika: PERFECT!!!!!  WE’RE ONLY 2 MILES AWAY FROM SHORE!!!!!  LET’S GO!!!!!

Wasting no time, Princess Erika and Sammy set off to get Cam to safety.
Back on the ship, the chefs in the ship’s main kitchen were finishing up preparing Burt’s afternoon snack of potato soup.  

Chef: ALRIGHT!!!!  TAKE THIS TO BURT!!!!!

Toby: YES SIR!!!!!  

Toby puts more than 7 drops of laxative in Burt’s soup before taking it out of the kitchen, and making his way down to the cargo bay where Burt was.

Rami: Hey Toby, do you have the soup for Burt?

Toby: Yep, and I put in 7 drops.

Rami: PERFECT!!!!!

Toby: Here go Burt!!!

Burt: TOOK YOU LONG ENOUGH!!!!!

Rami: Only the best for you sir!!!!

Burt: IF I DON’T LIKE IT, TAKE IT BACK AND GET ME ANOTHER!!!!

Toby: No problem Sir!!!!

Burt got out a spoon and slowly began to eat the soup.

Burt: MMMMMMMMM!!!!  Okay, you guys go back to work on the main deck!!!!

Rami and Toby soon made their way back up to the main deck, while Burt sat down at a table, and continued eating his soup.

Burt: MMMMMMMMMM!!!!!!!!  MMMMMMMM, IT IS GOOD!!!!!! MMMMMMM!!!!!!

Rami: WAY TO GO TOBY, YOU JUST NAILED THE BOSS!!!!!

Toby: I KNOW!!!!!!! LOL!!!!

As Burt eats away at his soup, Rami and Toby lock all but 2 bathroom doors on all decks in attempt to slow Burt down.
Back out on the water, Princess Erika and Sammy finally make it to a beach.

Princess Erika: PERFECT!!!!!!!  HOLD ON CAM, WE’RE ALMOST THERE!!!!!!  YOU’RE GONNA BE OKAY, JUST HANG ON!!!!!!!!

Cam’s skin color was turning pale and fast the more his temperature dropped, but Sammy and Princess Erika weren’t gonna let him die so easily.

Princess Erika: SAMMY!!!!!  GET HIM AS FAR ON THE BEACH AND OUT OF THE WATER AS POSSIBLE!!!!  I HAVE LOTS OF TOWELS I CAN USE!!!!!!

As they made their way onto the beach, Erika jumped off of Sammy’s back, got out of the water, and ran up as far as she could once she hit some nice dry pebbles.
She then set to work on laying down some towels as Sammy jumped out of the water as much as she could to get Cam to safety.

Princess Erika: THANKS SAMMY!!!!!   Stay close for now, but once everything’s okay.  Head back for home and tell my everyone what’s up!!!!

Sammy jumps back in the water, and stays close as Princess Erika tugs with all her might, and drags Cam’s lifeless body along the beach and onto her nice warm towels.
Princess Erika then unbuttons Cam’s button up long sleeve shirt, and removes it off his ice cold body, before she lifts up her swimsuit skirt, sits on top of Cam’s stomach, and lays a warm towel out on top of him.

Princess Erika: Okay Cam, stay with me……………you’ll be okay, just hang on……………….

Princess Erika then channels some of her magic energy, transfers some of her body heat to Cam, and slowly warms him up through the use of healing magic.

Princess Erika: Hold On Cam………………don’t die on me…………..please hold on……………..you’ll be okay, just hold on…………….

A few tears poured down Princess Erika’s face as she gently reached her hand out and stroked Cam’s ice cold face……………..although her memories of him as her brother from the real world were erased, her strong feelings of love for him still remained in her heart, and for that she was determined not to let him die.

Princess Erika: Come on Cam……………..stay with me sweetie…………..please!!!!

Back on the RLS Legacy, Burt had just finished eating his soup, and had made his way over to the jail cell where our friends were being held captive, and where Hashimoto was sitting on a crate reading a magazine.

Burt: Hashimoto, I have a suspicious feeling about our 2 new recruits here!!!!  I know they’re up to something and I’m gonna find out what it is.
While I’m taking care of the new recruits, you must make sure that no one here tries to escape.  If anyone tries to escape, use your Japanese sleep trick or something………..

Burt then feels something VERY uneasy in his stomach all of a sudden………….

Burt: I GOTTA GO!!!!

EVERYONE of our friends in the prison sell see Burt make a mad dash for the staircase and begin suspecting something.

Carla: How very bizzare…………

Wendy: What is it Carla?

Carla: He seemed like he was in a big hurry……….

Chelia: I kinda noticed that too………….

Troy then snickered, and tried hard not to laugh, for he knew what was going on.

Princess Chloe: Troy, what’s going on????

Carla: It’s like you’re trying hard not to laugh……………

Troy: It’s a LONG STORY!!!!!!!!!!!

Burt hightailed up the staircase as fast as he could, and went running through the various hallways trying to get to a bathroom, only to find all the bathroom doors locked………….

Burt: WOOOAHHHH!!!!!...................WOAH, WOOOOOOOOOOOOOAAAAAAAAAHHHH!!!!!

Burt tried wrestling the handle on one bathroom door, but a pirate happened to be using it, and gave a nasty respond.

Pirate: HEY!!!!!!  WAIT YE TURN!!!!!!!

Burt: OOOOOHHHHH, OHHHHHHH!!!!!!!

Poor Burt went running through the ships corridors even harder and faster until he went running through the main lounge where Mr. Prindle was.

Mr. Prindle: Well Burt!!!!  I just wanted to say it looks like we finally have everything under control.

Burt: Well yes, but………….

Mr. Prindle: I know!!!!!  Our job is far from over!!!!
But when it is we’re gonna get big money for those cars, Ren is gonna have some fine girls to be his mistresses, and we’ll probably be getting a good promotion from King Drago……………..
Well it looks like you’ve got something going on there, so just say the word, and lets continue on with the plan…………..

Burt: GERONIMO!!!!!!!!!!

Mr. Prindle: NOW THAT’S THE SPIRIT BURT!!!!

Burt then takes off running out of the lounge as he continues his search to find a bathroom.  And as he’s running for a bathroom all the pirates know it.  
Toby however starts grinning evilly.

Toby: YES!!!!!!!! HAAAAA, HAAAAAA, HAAAAAA, HAAAAAAA, HAAAAAAAAA!!!!!

Pirates: WHAT KIND OF TRICK WAS THIS????!!!!!

Toby: A harmless Prank!!!!!

Burt then goes running down a hall, and finds a bathroom at the very end of it, and ends up bumping into Rami as he opens the bathroom door nearly giving Burt a heart attack.

Rami: WOAH!!!!!

Burt: UUUUUHHHH-OOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOHHHHHHH!!!!!!!!!!!

Rami: WOOOOAAAAAHHH!!!!!!  I’M SOOOOO SORRY OLD MAN!!!!!

The sudden shock from bumping into Rami caused Burt to literally lose it all right then and there as Rami smells a nasty stench fill the air.

Rami: WOOOOO; NASTY!!!!!

Burt: UUUUUGGGGGHHHHHH, UUUUUHHHHHHH, OOOOOOOOOOOOHHHH!!!!!!

Burt slowly limps into the bathroom, and shortly after he gets situated, tosses his pants out of the bathroom window.  The soiled pants end up landing on a floating frozen block of ice, which ends up sinking into the icy waters once after the pants land on em.
Back down in the cargo bay, Hashimoto puts down his magazine, gets off the crate, and makes his way over to his sleeping quarters.
Herbie takes advantage of this as he rotates all 4 of his wheels diagonally, rolls out of his wheel chocks, and makes his way up to the jail sell.

Herbie: Beep, Beep!!!!!  Beep, Beep!!!!!

Troy: WOAH!!!!!  HERBIE’S………………………..HERBIE’S ON THE MOVE!!!!!!!

Poe: THAT’S AWESOME!!!!!!

Ramsley: HEY, TRY TO SEE IF YOU CAN GET OFF THIS SHIP AND GET US SOME HELP!!!!!

Twilight: YEAH!!!!!  TRY TO SEE IF YOU CAN FIND AN ESCAPE ROUTE SOMEWHERE!!!!

Wendy: And Herbie, please promise me something………………………..promise me you’ll find Cam………………………please……………………….

Herbie extends his retractable antenna into the jail sell, and gives Wendy a handkerchief as he gently strokes her face with his antenna while tears pour down her cheeks.

Herbie: Beep…………….

Wendy: Please promise me you’ll find him…………………

Herbie: BEEP, BEEP!!!!

Wendy then hooks her pink with the end of Herbie’s antenna before he slowly slips away from her.
He then turns over his engine, revs it up, shifts his transmission into gear, and drives off…………with a……………….

VROOM, VROOM-VROOM, VROOM-VROOM, ROOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOAAAAAAAAAAAARRRRRR-VROOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOM!!!!!

As he disappears around a bend.

Troy: GO HERBIE!!!!!  GO!!!!!!!!

Helmsley: Well that’s done it!!!!

Ramsley: Our trust now lies on the wheels of a car!!!!

Johnny 5: NOT JUST ANY CAR!!!!!!  A FORMER INTERNATIONAL CHAMPIONSHIP RACING CAR!!!!!!

Finn: We might as well kiss our hopes of getting out of here good-bye.

Troy: I wouldn’t be so sure………………..Herbie maybe old, and he maybe a small car, but he will surprise you when you least expect it……………….

Chelia: I hope you’re right Troy…………….

Carla: All we can do is put our faith in him, and hope he pulls through…………..

Herbie then backs up into a service elevator, extends out his retractable antenna, bends it until it nearly snaps, and presses the down button lowering the elevator deeper into the bowels of the ship.
Back on the upper decks, Burt opens the bathroom door just enough to stick his face out, sees a large female attendant walking, and notices that her dress is the perfect waste size and length for him.

Burt: PSSSSSST!!!!!  HEY YOU!!!!!  OVER HERE!!!!!  I NEED SOME HELP!!!!

Burt then calls her over to ask if she has a spare dress for him to borrow.
Meanwhile on the beach, Princess Erika continues to transfer some of her body heat to Cam while using healing magic.  Slowly but surely Cam’s body temperature slowly rises passed 90 degrees and slowly reeds 91.

Princess Erika: ALRIGHT!!!!!  HE’S AT 91!!!!  WE’RE GETTING SOMEWHERE SAMMY!!!!!   COME ON CAM, STAY WITH ME!!!!!  PLEASE HOLD ON!!!!
It’s gonna be okay, you’re not dying on me…………………………..

Princess Erika gently leaned over, and kissed Cam on top of his forehead while continuing to stroke his face……………..his temperature continued to climb, and soon went up to 92, then 93, then 94, and then 95……………………

Princess Erika: I’VE GOT SOMETHING!!!!!!   I FEEL BOTH A PULSE AND A HEART BEAT SAMMY!!!!!!  I THINK I’VE GOT HIM!!!!!  COME ON CAM!!!!!  YOU CAN DO IT!!!!!  COME ON!!!!!

As Cam’s temperature increased to 96 degrees, he slowly regained consciousness, and as he slowly regained consciousness he felt the touch of soft and gently hand stroking his face.

Princess Erika: COME ON SWEETIE, YOU’RE ALMOST THERE………………….come on…………stay with me……………………………..stay with me, you’re gonna be okay………….

Once Cam’s temperature increased to 97 degrees, his eyes slowly started to open, and as his eyes slowly started to open he could see his precious little sister Princess Erika sitting on top of him and giving him small gentle kisses on his cheeks and his forehead………………

Princess Erika: Stay with me sweetie……………….

Princess Erika then saw Cam’s eyes wide open, and the moment she saw his eyes wide open, she gently wrapped her arms around him, and gave him a big hug as more tears poured down her face.

Princess Erika: OH MY GOD!!!!!  THANK GOODNESS!!!!!!

Cam: What just happened????!!!!!  Where am I????!!!!!

Princess Erika: You’re on a pebble beach in the frozen realm north of Grand Bay Lake……………………You nearly died after swimming in icy cold waters, had Sammy and I not gotten to you in time…………………thank goodness we found you when we did………………

Cam: WOW!!!!  That is nuts, now why would I?............................

Cam then remembers that he was forced to walk the plank on a pirate ship…………….

Cam: That’s right I walked the plank on Captain Blue Beard’s ship, but…………………I don’t remember why…………….

Princess Erika: You’re memory’s a little hazy, but it should clear up once you’re back to normal……………………

Cam then sees Princess Erika sitting on top of him with her legs straddled on both sides of him, her swimsuit skirt gently blowing up and down in the breeze, and felt both a nice warm towel covering his entire chest as well as some of Princess Erika’s body heat around his stomach………………………he then realized that his shirt was missing…………………….

Cam: So uhhhhhhhhhh, why are you sitting on top of me???!!!!

Princess Erika: *Blushes Bright Pink*  Well, uh………………I was doing a technique my mom taught me long ago before she passed away……………it’s a transfer of body heat while using healing magic………………….it’s a long process that allows those from the royal family save the lives of someone precious to them when they’re close to dying………………………..your body temperature was VERY LOW since you almost completely froze in the icy water, and by transferring some of my body heat onto you along with the use of healing magic, I was able to bring you back to life………………..you’re very special to me…………….I can’t really understand why, but you are, and I’m just glad I was able to save you when I did…………………

Cam gently stroked Princess Erika’s face and gently patted her on the head.

Cam: Thank you very much sweetie……………….thank you for saving my life, I owe you big time…………..

Princess Erika: *Blushes Bright Pink & Giggles*  Oh, it was nothing!!!!

Cam: How is it that you didn’t freeze in the icy waters, and I nearly did?

Princess Erika: My swimsuits that I wear come with magical temperature adapters built inside of them.  They prevent me from burning up if I swim in hot boiling water by keeping me cool since they can withstand temperatures up to 300 degrees, and they can keep me warm in icy cold water like just now since they can withstand anything as low as sub 0 degrees.  
It’s a requirement for those in the royal family and those who are involved with the royal family to keep temperature-adapting swimsuits in their possession.
Fortunately for me, because they’re just so cute, they’re the only things I wear, so it worked out to my advantage.  
 
Cam: That makes sense.

Cam slowly tries to get up, but Princess Erika wouldn’t let him.

Princess Erika: Hey, try not to move too much.  I want to raise your temperature a little bit more, so please stay down a little bit longer, and try taking it easy for a while, okay?

Cam: No problem…………….Also why was my shirt removed?

Princess Erika: I had to take it off you so I could start the process of transferring my body heat onto you more easily.  It would have been faster had I removed my bikini bottoms too, but………*BLUSHES BRIGHTER PINK*………….That would have been too embarrassing since they’re pretty much my underwear.  However, it would have taken me A LOT longer to restore your body heat with that wet ice cold shirt on.

Cam: Understandable.

Princess Erika: We should both change into dry clothes before we head on our way.  I’m starting to get cold, and a wet swimsuit in a cold climate out of water does me no good, so right now I’m as easily susceptible to catching a cold as you are.  It’s just as bad for you in wet clothes as it is for me, if not worse.
Luckily I have a spare swimsuit in my item storage gun ready to change into before we leave…………do you have a change of clothes?

Cam: You make a good point, and yes I do.  I have plenty!!!!

Princess Erika: That’s good!!!!! *Giggles*

Cam: Once again, thank you for saving my life………………..

Princess Erika: Of course, you’re welcome……………it’s the least I could do after humiliating you like that in front of your friends before the royal meeting………..I honestly swear I didn’t know the meaning of it, and only wanted to play, but apparently kissing on the lips means something significant from where you come from……………..and I’m sorry………………………was that your first kiss by the way????

Cam: Not gonna lie, it was………………..

Princess Erika: OH MY GOSH, ONCE AGAIN I AM SOOOOOOOOO SORRY!!!!!  I HONESTLY DIDN’T MEAN TO EMBARRASS YOU LIKE THAT, I PROMISE!!!!!  I DIDN’T KNOW I WAS STEALING YOUR FIRST KISS!!!!!!  HAD I’D KNOWN, I WOULDN’T HAVE DONE THAT, AND I FEEL SO AWFUL!!!!!!

Cam: Hey, don’t worry about it………………you’re 11-years-old and still just a baby, and learning……….you’ll figure these things out eventually………………………..

Princess Erika: You’re so sweet………………….but…………….I know there’s someone very special in your life right……………….

Cam: Of course, and you are someone special to me………………in fact you are so special that a life without you would just be unimaginable……………….

Princess Erika: *BLUSHES VERY BRIGHT PINK*  OH STOP!!!!  THAT CAN’T BE RIGHT!!!!!!  *GIGGLES*  How can little old me be so special to you?  I mean, yeah I saved your life, but we don’t really know each other………………….

Cam: Well you’re not gonna believe me, and in fact you will think I’m bonkers, but……………….you and I are not from this world………………..in fact you and I come from the same world……………….

Princess Erika: That can’t be right……………..I’ve lived in Castaway Sapphire Kingdom since I was a baby……………………….my mom was………………….

Cam: That same mom that gave birth to me and Troy 22 years ago, and adopted you shortly after you were born 11 years ago………………………………….what I’m trying to say is, you’re from the same world Troy and I are, and you’re Troy’s and my precious little sister……………….Princess Erika, you’re my baby sister…………………

Princess Erika: WHHHHHHHHHHHAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAATTTTTTTTTTTTT???????!!!!!!!!!!!!!

On the RLS Legacy Burt walks out of the bathroom and down the hall wearing a dress running the length from the waste down to the top of his ankles.

Burt: (Hmmmmmmhmmmm!!!!!  THIS WORKS!!!!!  Yeah, I do look good in a dress!!!!!)

While Burt walks down the hallway back to the main lounge, Herbie makes his way down to the bowels of the ship.   He soon comes across and emergency escape pool at the bottom of the hull that leads directly out to the open water.
Herbie extends his retractable antenna to push the button that unlocks the pool when……………………..alarms start blaring off throughout the ship.

Alarm: INTRUDERS ON BOARD!!!!!  INTRUDERS ON BOARD!!!!!!!!

Herbie stopped and froze with his whole body shaking thinking he was at fault for escaping, and not realizing that he didn’t cause the alarm.  It went off because Rami and Toby were discovered.
Captain Blue Beard along with Mr. Prindle, Burt, and the rest of the pirates were all furious!!!!!

Blue Beard: AAAARRRRRRRRRRRGGGGGGGG!!!!!!!!!  THE NEW RECRUITS ARE NOT RECRUITS AT ALL!!!!!!!  JUST INTRUDERS TRYING TO FOOL ME!!!!!!!

Burt: I KNEW IT!!!!!!  I KNEW SOMETHING WAS WRONG WITH THOSE 2!!!!!!

Mr. Prindle: YOU 2 THOUGHT YOU COULD PULL THE WOOL OVER OUR EYES, BUT YOU 2 ARE DEAD WRONG!!!!!!!

Blue Beard: AAARRRRRRRRRRRRGGGGGGGGGG!!!!!!!!!  AFTER THEM MEN, AND THROW THEM IN THE CELL WITH THE OTHERS!!!!!!!!

Rami: FAT CHANCE OLD MAN!!!!!

Toby: YOU’LL HAVE TO RUN FAST IF YOU WANNA KEEP UP!!!!!

Captain Blue Beard, Burt, Mr. Prindle, and the rest of the pirates chased Rami and Toby, here, there, and EVERYWHERE all over the ship.
Our friends in the cargo bay were all curious on what the fracas going on was all about.

Carla: IF IT’S NOT ONE THING IT’S ANOTHER!!!!!!

Wendy: WHAT’S ALL THIS ABOUT CARLA????!!!!!

Carla: HOW AM I SUPPOSED TO KNOW????!!!!!!

Troy: THE ALARM EXPLAINS IT ALL!!!!!  THERE ARE INTRUDERS ON BOARD THE SHIP!!!!!!

Chelia: HMMMMMMMMM, WHO DO YOU THINK COULD HAVE SNUCK ON BOARD WHILE WE WERE CAPTURED!!!!!

Poe: PARKED NEXT TO WHERE OUR CAR WAS, ARE 2 OTHER RACING CARS, AND THEY DON’T BELONG TO US!!!!!!!!!

Finn: NOW THAT YOU MENTION IT, THEY BELONG TO THE SECOND AND THIRD PLACE WINNERS OF THE MAGIC KINGDOM GRAND PRIX!!!!!!!

Princess Chloe: OF COURSE!!!!!  HOW COULD WE FORGET!!!!!

Princess Mackenzie: THE 2 INTRUDERS THAT SNUCK ON BOARD ARE RAMI AND TOBY!!!!!!

Nina: WHO ARE THEY?????!!!!!!

Troy: 2 FRIENDS OF OURS THAT WERE REQUESTED TO JOIN US ON OUR QUEST!!!!!

Wendy: IF THEY COULD SOMEHOW GET TO HERBIE AND TEAM UP WITH HIM………….

Chelia: THE SOONER THEY CAN FIND CAM!!!!

Troy: AND THE SOONER THEY FIND CAM, THE SOONER THEY CAN GET TO THE KOOPALINGS, AND GET US OUT OF HERE!!!!!

Carla: YA SEE CHILD ALL HOPE IS NOT LOST!!!!!

Down in the bowels of the ship, Herbie presses the button that unlocks and opens the escape pool.  Herbie rolls up his windows and was just about to make a dive under water when……………….

Rami: HEY BUDDY!!!!!!

Toby: DO YOU HAVE ROOM FOR 2 STOW AWAYS LIKE US?????!!!!!!

Herbie opens his 2 doors immediately because he knew the 2 pirates were not pirates at all, but were his friends Rami and Toby from the Grand Prix, and they needed his help.

Herbie: BEEEEP, BEEEEP!!!!!

Rami and Toby jump into Herbie, and Herbie revs up his engine before jumping right into the escape pool, diving straight underwater, and swimming away from the RLS Legacy.
On board the ship, Blue Beard, Burt, Mr. Prindle, and all the rest of the pirates searched high and low, but they couldn’t find Rami and Toby.
Luckily for Herbie, once he broke the surface, he was able to speed off through the water at a WHOPPING 80 miles an hour like a speedboat, and get Rami and Toby to safety.

Rami: THANK YOU VERY MUCH BUDDY!!!!!!

Toby: WE OWE YOU BIG TIME!!!!!

Herbie continued speeding off through the water of the Frozen Tundra, and was soon out of line of the RLS Legacy’s site when Burt returned to the cargo bay.

Burt: HASHIMOTO WHERE ARE YOU?????!!!!!!!!

Burt soon finds Hashimoto fast asleep in his sleeping quarters, and needless to say Burt was VERY PISSED with him.

Burt: HASHIMOTO GET UP!!!!!  THIS IS NO TIME TO BE SLEEPING ON THE JOB!!!!  GET BACK TO YOUR POST!!!!!

Hashimoto gets out of his bed, and walks back to his post, but when he arrives back at his post, he is shocked at what he finds.

Burt: HASHIMOTO, WHAT IS IT NOW?????!!!!!!

Burt soon had his answer when he sees that Herbie was gone.

Burt: WASN’T THERE A THIRD CAR PARKED HERE????!!!!!!

Hashimoto: I DON’T KNOW!!!!!!!!

Burt then sees the empty wheel chocks that prevented Herbie from rolling away.  Unfortunately for them, the wheel chocks only worked for back and forth movement, not diagonal or side to side.
Mr. Prindle soon comes frantically running down into the ship’s cargo bay with troubling news.

Mr. Prindle: BURT!!!!!!  I HAVE SOME TROUBLING NEWS!!!!!

Burt: WHAT IS IT????!!!!!!

Mr. Prindle: THOSE 2 INTRUDERS GOT AWAY!!!!!!!!!

Burt: WELL SO HAS THIS OTHER CAR THAT WAS PARKED HERE!!!!!!!

Mr. Prindle: WHAT????!!!!!  HOW CAN A CAR MOVE WITH NO DRIVER??????!!!!!!

Burt: HASHIMOTO??????!!!!!!!!

Mr. Prindle: THIS WOULDN’T HAVE HAPPENED IF YOU DIDN’T SLEEP ON THE JOB!!!!!!

Burt: NOW WE’RE GONNA HAVE TO NOTIFY CAPTAIN BLUE BEARD!!!!!

As Burt and Mr. Prindle walked passed the jail sell, our friends couldn’t help but notice Burt’s dress.

Carla: What on earth??????!!!!!!!!

Wendy: Carla????...........................

Chelia: Is it just me or is he wearing a dress????!!!!!

Ayumi: WHAT???!!!!!!  HE’S WEARING A DRESS????!!!!

Nina: Why is he wearing a dress????!!!!!

Manaka: I didn’t see him in a dress earlier!!!!!

Troy then remembers something from a funny scene from the 1984 film Chattanooga Choo Choo, and remembers what happened to Burt during a prank in the film, and bursts out laughing………………

Troy: *BURSTS OUT LAUGHING*  NOW IT ALL MAKES SENSE!!!!!!  

Princess Chloe: YOU ACTUALLY KNOW WHY THAT GUY’S WEARING A DRESS????!!!!!!!

Troy: YEP!!!!  And I have a feeling that Rami and Toby had something to do with it……………………..LONG STORY!!!!!!!

Once Burt, and Mr. Prindle notify Captain Blue Beard of what had happened, he goes ballistic.

Blue Beard: AAAAAAAAAARRRRRRRRRRRRRRRRRRRRRGGGGGGGGGGGGGGGG!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!
FROM NOW ON NOBODY LEAVES THE SHIP WITHOUT ME SAY SO!!!!!  SEND GUARDS TOO ALL CORNERS OF THE SHIP AT ALL TIMES!!!!!  NOT ONE SOUL GETS IN OR OUT UNTIL WE REACH PORT!!!!!!!

Back on the beach after explaining EVERYTHING, Princess Erika’s mind is all of a jumble…………………..

Princess Erika: I can’t believe it…………………you and I are actually………………..

Cam: Yes……………….as I said before you are my little sister back in the real world.  We are in a game that you, me, and our brother Troy all designed, and we are beta testing it.  We threw in a bunch of all of our ideas including things we like, things we don’t like, our dreams, our obsessions, our passions, our fears, our nightmares, the things we love, and things we hate; we all poured it into this game to save our uncle’s company from going under…………………Troy and I love Las Vegas, I am a huge fan of Herbie The Love Bug, Troy loves anime, we both love 1980s Rock N Roll music, we all love Disneyland and Walt Disney World, we love beautiful 5 star hotels, I love old steam trains and helicopters, Troy’s good with girls as well as being a leader, we all hate dominant alpha males, and you LOVE the water.   Heck that swimsuit you’re wearing is your most favorite thing to wear of all time back at home, and it’s impossible to get you out of it.  You’re a talented diver and synchronized swimmer, and it’s been your dream to live in an underwater kingdom as a princess.
That’s why you were given the roll that you’re in…………………the game sensed what you’re passionate about, but it unfortunately wiped away your memories of the real world, but kept what you hold dear………………………and the reason why you’ve been affectionate and flirty with me is because…………………in the real world, you and I share a special bond…………………..we are not just siblings, but we’re also best friends…………………we tell each other everything…………….we confide in one another about what bothers us……………….and we support each other through good times, hard times, happy times, and sad times………………….we almost NEVER FIGHT or argue because you and I are almost one in the same when it comes to our feelings, and our fears………………………………

Princess Erika: So I’m your sister?.......................

Cam: And Troy’s too, since he and are twins……………however you and I always had a special bond that he and I, and you and he never had for some reason…………………..back at home you’re a very shy girl, you’re afraid of conflict, you cry every time someone yells at you, you’re scared to death of thunder & lightening, but most of all you’re afraid of our strict and borderline abusive Aunt, Corolado.  You have a great sense of style, you’re a very feminine and girly girl who loves wearing mini skirts, spandex leggings, gym shorts, and tank tops, having your hair nice and neat, always wearing face glitter and fake eye lashes, and you’re also VERY affectionate.
You can also be a pervert when you want to be given how often you tease me and sit on me in very little clothing almost all the time, and sometimes an annoying little brat too since you fart on me when I least expect it, as well as be sometimes borderline possessive since you’re insistent of constantly sitting on my lap, leaning on my shoulders, or constantly wanting me to hold your hand.  You also crawl into my bed late at night when I’m asleep.  And sometimes you crawl into my bed wearing that wet swimsuit leaving me damp and uncomfortable first thing in the morning.  
But at the end of the day, you’re nothing but the most kind hearted and unselfish little girl!!!!  You have such a kind loving and caring gentle soul with a great big heart.  You also care about other peoples needs more than your own.  
You are nothing but a sweet, kind, and affectionate, loving gentle little girl who loves everyone.  And I couldn’t be any more proud, or more blessed than to have you as my precious little sister.

Hearing this caused Princess Erika to get all choked up and teary eyed, and she couldn’t help but wrap her arms around Cam in a big hug.

Princess Erika: That was the sweetest, kindest, and most touching thing anyone has ever told me.   It kinda explains why I have such strong feelings for you………………
Not gonna lie, I had a HUGE crush on you when we first met, and as much as it bums me out to hear that we're actually already family related, it makes me even happier to know that we actually do have something really special after all.

Cam: Of course………..and also sometimes being siblings is the greatest gift you can ask for………………..a relationship with a significant other may not last forever, since the divorce and break up rate is high in our world, however siblings are an important part of a family.  Family means that you’ll always be there no matter what.
And we have an even greater gift since we’re siblings by family, but best friends by choice.  My best friend is my little sister, and I couldn’t ask for a greater gift than that.


More tears poured down Princess Erika’s face as she gave Cam gentle kisses on the cheek, and Cam gave her a gentle kiss on the forehead.

Princess Erika: You really are my prince charming after all, but in a more different way than I thought, and that’s not such a bad thing.

Cam: We made a promise to always be friends, even as siblings, and to always love and be there for each other at all times.

Princess Erika: And I wouldn’t have it any other way, my big brother, Cam…………….I think I love you……………….

Princess Erika soon sees that Cam’s temperature is now at 99.99 degrees, making her comfortable enough to help him up.

Princess Erika: Well, your temperature is nice and high, so I think we should be okay to get up, but try to take it slow okay?

Cam: No problem.  Cam slowly gets up, feeling a little dizzy, but not as bad as before.  Princess Erika gives him a hand as she slowly gets off of him, and slowly helps him up.

Princess Erika: Think you can manage changing your own?  You can also help me if you’d like!  *Blushes Bright Pink* I don’t mind………….. *Giggles*

Cam: *BLUSHES DARK RED*  Well I do, so I think I can handle that on my own and so can you, you little pervert!!!!!

Princess Erika: *Giggles* Just making sure…………LOL!!!!

Cam and Erika look away from each other as Cam changes out of his wet clothes and puts on a nice dry pair of Banana Republic Boot Cut Jeans, Tommy Bahamas Button Up Long Sleeve Shirt, socks, and Ecco Boot like shoes, along with a nice thick wool jacket.
Princess Erika changes out of her wet light blue skirted 3 piece tankini swimsuit, and into her nice dry dark green skirted 3 piece tankini swimsuit that was almost identical to the blue one, but was in dark green with beautiful bright red and yellow flowers on it instead of the pink and white flowers on the blue one.
She also set to work on putting on her white socks, and white platform shoes, as well as her warm pink cardigan.  She then reapplied her eye brow mascara as well as her fake eye lashes, face glitter, face blush, lip gloss, topped her hair off with a beautiful red bow, put on her tiara, and placed a hibiscus flower in her hair before sliding her hair scrunchy on her wrist.

Princess Erika: Alright, I’m ready to go when you are!!!!

Cam: Same here!!!!

As Princess Erika attempts to walk, however she felt a little light headed and dizzy from the exhaustion of using her magic.

Cam: Hey, are you alright?

Princess Erika: Yeah, I’m okay……………just a little tired from using up a lot of my magic…………………

Cam: I’ll carry you on my back.

Princess Erika: Are you sure?

Cam: Of course!!!!!  I’d carry you on my back all the time in the real world, so this shouldn’t really be any different.  You’re as light as a feather, and wouldn’t be a burden at all.  Besides, it’s the least I could do to thank you for saving my life………………… The town of Elbe shouldn’t be too far anyways, so it wouldn’t be for very long.

Princess Erika: Well it would be nice, and I am feeling tired, but we really shouldn’t delay……………..we have to get to the castles…………

Cam: Yeah so, hop on…………….

Princess Erika: *Blushes bright pink*  Okay………………….

Princess Erika jumped onto Cam’s back, and Cam held on tightly to her.

Cam: Alrighty.  Just relax and rest up.

Princess Erika: First let me give a message to Sammy.

Cam: No problem!!!!!

Princess Erika had Cam go over to the water’s edge so she could relay a message to her dolphin Sammy.

Princess Erika: Okay Sammy.  The time has come for us to part ways for now.  Thank you very much for your help!!!!  You were wonderful!!!!  Now I need you to do a HUGE favor for me!!!!!
Please tell the soldiers back at home to gather up, get on their boats, and come STRAIGHT to Eatonville right away!!!!!  We’re gonna need all the help we can get to take down King Drago and Queen Xayide’s Army!!!!!

Sammy nodded her head and squeaked.

Princess Erika: Please be safe girl!!!!!

Sammy then dove underwater and swam off.

Princess Erika: Okay Cam, let’s go!!!!

Cam: Yes!!!!  Oh by the way Princess, that new swimsuit looks REALLY cute on you.  In fact I prefer this one on you more than the blue one.

Princess Erika: *BLUSHES BRIGHTER PINK*  OH, Thank you……………*Giggles*………………glad you like it……………..I also really LOVE this jacket you're wearing, it feels so nice and warm……………..

Cam: It is!!!!!

Princess Erika: While we’re walking to Elbe, would you mind telling me more about us and our brother/sister relationship from the real world……….

Cam: No problem sweetie………………

As Cam and Princess Erika set off for the little town of Elbe, Cam tells her all about their relationship, and their adventures from the real world from start to finish…………


To Be Continued……………..

Chapter 29

Commandeering A Locomotive

Princess Erika: NO WAY!!!!!!  *Blushes bright pink*  Am I REALLY like that with you in the real world?????!!!!!!

Cam: Yes, unfortunately…………………..LOL!!!!!!

Princess Erika: So, I REALLY do climb into your bed late at night when you’re fast asleep, and sometimes in a wet swimsuit????!!!!!

Cam: Yes, and the next morning I wake up wet, and I’m not happy………………..

Princess Erika: You also say that like here that I HATE taking off my favorite swimsuit in the real world too???!!!!!

Cam: Yep!!!!!  It’s impossible to get you out of that thing!!!!!  I mean just seeing you change into a different one now is kind of a shocker…………. but then again it’s practically identical with the only difference being the color, and you only changed from one swimsuit to another instead of changing completely out of one.

Princess Erika: Well, I HATE taking it off because it’s SOOOOOOOO CUTE!!!!  This is my second favorite one because it’s also SOOOOOOOOO CUTE, and practically the same with the exception of the colors!!!!  I love the flower color variations on them!!!!  The blue one has white flowers on the bikini bottoms, pink flowers on the skirt, and both white and pink flowers on the top.  This green one has yellow flowers on the bikini bottoms, red flowers on the skirt, and both red and yellow flowers on the top!!!!  HOW CAN THAT NOT BE CUTE???!!!!!  *GIGGLES*
Besides I am required to wear a temperature adapting swimsuit anyways, and that’s what these are!!! *Giggles*

Cam: (Good grief!!!!!  She really did get her dream roll as an underwater princess)

Princess Erika: *BLUSHES BRIGHTER PINK*  And you’re saying I actually………………farted on you?.....................

Cam: While sitting on top of me just like when how you were using your magic on me, the few times I grope you on the butt, while sitting in my lap, and even after crawling into my bed while I’m asleep………….and you’ve done it more times than I would care to count………………….UGH!!!!!

Princess Erika: *BLUSHES BRIGHTER PINK*  EWWWWWWWWWWWWWWWW!!!!!

Cam: My thought’s exactly………………..though your tummy is very sensitive to egg when mixed with dairy products, so it happens A LOT after you touch quiche, cake, or most other deserts or egg based meal…………………..at the same time Troy and I are allergic to garlic and onions………………

Princess Erika: Well, I'm the same here, and it's SUCH A BUMMER!!!! I LOVE cakes, Pastries, omelettes, quiche, and anything creamy, but I pay for it later....................UUUUUUGGGGGGHHHHHH!!!!!!!!
And you’re saying I can be possessive sometimes and very clingy?????!!!!!

Cam: YES!!!!!!!    

Princess Erika: How so?

Cam: Well, back in the real world you know that I’m in love with someone, and you tend to hog me from her…………….. you’re ALWAYS holding my hand, kissing my cheeks, leaning your body on mine, or sitting on top of me when she’s around…………………

Princess Erika: OOOOOOOOOOOHHHHH?????!!!!!!  Would she happen to be Wendy Marvell by any chance????!!!!!  *Giggles*

Cam: *BLUSHES BRIGHT RED*  Actually, Wendy’s not from our world, and she’s actually far too young for me……………….it’s actually Princess Mackenzie who I’m in love with in real life…………………..She's my second best female friend after you.......................

Princess Erika: AWWWWWWWWWWWWWW!!!!!!!  Why don’t you tell her how you feel?

Cam: I’ve tried, but like you, I’m very shy when it comes to this stuff since I’ve never had a girlfriend.

Princess Erika: AWWWWWWWWWWWWWW!!!!! You shouldn't have to be so shy!!!! You're really cute, very handsome, and very sweet...............how can she not like you? You should get closer to her and tell her how you feel if you love her...............

Cam: Well also because you tend to hog me from her and are constantly insistent about holding my hand, leaning your head on my shoulder, and sometimes not allowing her to get close to me due to jealousy, I’m not really able to get close to her…………………..

Princess Erika: Sorry......................I guess it sounds like I can be possessive at times........................

Cam: You also threw a HUGE fit when you found out that I was gonna be gone for almost a whole year in Colorado to become an FRA certified locomotive engineer, and you knew that steam trains were and still are my main passion………….once after I left, Troy told me you were crying non stop for days on end because you couldn’t stand the thought of me being gone for a long time.

Princess Erika: WOW!!!!!!! It sounds like I’m a total brat to you in the real world sometimes……………………………….and for that I’m so sorry…………………..

Cam: Hey, you have nothing to be sorry for.  As my little sister, it’s completely normal.  You’re supposed to be a brat sometimes.  Not every sibling relationship is perfect, and most of our friends who have both older and younger siblings are jealous of the fact that our relationship is as amazing as it is.  Although you have embarrassed me A LOT, it’s okay, because at the end of the day it’s out of love.  You’ve been over protective of me after knowing all the hardships I went through, and you’re always making sure that I never get hurt. In return I'm also very over protective of you, and if anyone tries to hurt you, I don't hesitate to give them a piece of my mind, so we're always there for each other.
We RARELY to almost NEVER fight because our relationship is so special……….Although most people don’t understand the complexity of our relationship, as I've stated before those that have siblings are jealous of what we have because they wish that they were as close to their siblings as you and I are………………not everyone can say that they’re sibling is also their best friend……………..  

Princess Erika: Hmmmmmmmmm, okay………………but for what it’s worth, I’m still sorry for causing you trouble…………….

Cam: Hey, don’t worry about it…………………..I’ve had my fair share of fun with you......................

Princess Erika: Like what?

Cam: I grope you on the butt A LOT, I flip your mini skirts up A LOT, I tease you about your shyness A LOT as well as the fact you blush A LOT, I also tease you about your fear of scary movies as well as your fear of thunder & lightening, but whenever I do that, you get me back REAL good!!!! LOL!!!

Princess Erika: *Giggles* It sounds like our relationship is far from boring!!!!

Cam: And it’s for these reasons that you and I have become so close and have such a strong bond.  
And what’s wonderful is because we’re so close, we understand each other very well.  Troy and I may share A LOT of the same tastes and talents, but the slight differences we have drive us crazy, and we end up bickering over differences in our opinions.  However whenever Troy and I bicker, you’re the one coming in and bringing it to an end, and those are the times when you act like the older sibling.  It’s kinda embarrassing, because at times like that Troy and I do act like children, and you act like the adult. LOL!!!!!
You and I, NEVER bicker.  We always seem to understand each other, and probably because you and I are almost one in the same personality wise……………..we may have a brother/sister complex relationship, which means our relationship is rather unusual given that there’s some chemistry of attraction, but it’s because we’re each other’s best friends, and we really love each other.  And I honestly think it’s better that we love each other, and get along very well, than it is to constantly fight and bicker the way most siblings do.

Princess Erika: You do make a very good point, and it sounds like that you and I have something amazing back in our world……………………….

Cam: You’re a very special little girl……………………ever since Mom and Dad adopted you when you were a little newborn baby…………………

Princess Erika: Wait, I’m adopted????!!!!!....................It kinda explains why I’m A LOT more pale white than you along with the fact that I’m a blonde with blue eyes, and both you and Troy are semi tanned with dark hair and brown eyes…………….

Cam: Yes.  To start off our father Han is half Brazilian, and our mother Layla’s half British, which kinda explains Troy’s and my colors.

Princess Erika: That’s really cool!!!!  How did I come into the picture, if you don’t mind me asking???!!!

Cam:  Our mother Layla was unable to bare children after Troy and I were born.  In fact it was a miracle that Troy and I were born at all.  She wasn’t supposed to bare us, given a complication in genetics.  But, as luck would have it, she got pregnant with me and Troy, and it was an even bigger shock to our parents when they found out they were having identical twins.  
I was born on the night of May 31st at 11:59 p.m. 1994, and Troy was born 2 minutes later on the early morning of June 1st at 12:01 a.m. 1994.  We were given a unique twin distinction of having our birthdays in different months, hence our middle names being given to us on the months that we were born.  Me in May and Troy in June.

Princess Erika: WOW!!!!!  THAT IS AMAZING!!!!!!

Cam: It is, and it’s something Troy and I are proud of………..
Sadly that was the only miracle delivery our parents would ever see.  For YEARS, Mom and Dad were trying time and time again to conceive a third child whether it be a boy or girl.
But the more they tried, whether it be naturally, by sperm donors, or by egg donors, nothing worked……………………..our mom miscarried twice and our parents were constantly getting heart broken, and so were Troy and I………………..they wanted a 3rd child really badly and Troy and I wanted a 3rd sibling really badly…………………………  

Princess Erika: OH MY GOSH!!!!!  That’s so sad!!!!!!  It sounds like our poor parents went through so much to get the third child they wanted………………….

Cam: They did………………LOTS of tears were shed among the 4 of us.

Princess Erika: How did adoption come into the picture…………..

Cam: It happened out of nowhere one day when I was at the age of 10, a bell went off in my head when I heard about adoption from health class in school.  I did some further research on it, and discovered how wonderful adoption really is.  I told Troy about it, and he looked into it as well.  Well then realized that adoption was the answer to our problem that we have been looking for.
We then both informed our parents, and asked em, whether or not they still wanted a third child, and why not try taking the route of adoption?  
It was at that moment when our parents realized all hope was not lost.  
I remember seeing the tears in my mom’s eyes when we told her that there was still a chance, and that we’d be doing a wonderful thing by giving a child the good life he/she wouldn’t be able to have if not put up for adoption.
We go across a lot of adoption agencies, and we finally stumbled across one we really liked up North in Oregon.  
The agency informed us of a young pregnant mom who was looking to give up her child for adoption because she was very sick and didn’t have very long to live due to an unknown illness.  
When my parents found out, they didn’t hesitate to jump on the opportunity to get in touch with the woman who wanted to give up her child for adoption.
After a lot of back and forth talking with the agency, and the young mom, everything was finalized………………………

Princess Erika: WOW!!!!!  Talk about amazing luck!!!!!

Cam: It gets better, but also sad too………………..the biological father couldn’t be found because he died while in the line of duty in the military, and there were no other guardians to get ahold of, which is why the young mother was giving up her child, so the plans for the adoption went ahead.  
Early on the morning of October 26, 2005, at 6:02 a.m., a beautiful baby girl was born………..but on that same morning 2 hours later, the mother who gave birth to her passed away from childbirth complications……………………

Princess Erika: Oh my gosh……………………………….

Cam: We all felt so sorry that the child’s biological mother passed away right after giving birth, but she died happy knowing that her precious baby was going to a loving family and would have a good life.
We also felt that there was a good reason that we became the chosen adoptive family of the young child, and that everything worked out for a reason.
We instantly accepted you into our family, and when Troy and I first saw you, we couldn’t wait to hold you………………you were the most precious thing to us, and a gift from God that has given us nothing but so much joy.

Hearing all this really made Princess Erika feel chocked up and get very teary eyed.

Princess Erika: Wow…………………….

Princess Erika slowly began to cry………………….

Cam: We were all so happy once after we took you home, and made you part of our family.  And adoptive, or biological, you’re still our precious little sister, and you’re the most important thing in the world to us.  Nothing will ever change that.


Princess Erika: Oh my gosh…………….

Cam: But, it only gets better because you and I bonded on day 1.  Every time I would hold you, your tiny little hand would always grab my pinky, and you wouldn’t let go……………….I remember crying my eyes out from it each time because I was going through a very tough time in my life……………………I was going through a lot of bullying at school, a lot of physical and verbal abuse from the fact I was different from everyone else…………….I was hazed, harassed, poked fun of for my passion for trains, being a very shy introvert, and not being into team sports…………………Troy was constantly trying to stand up for me, but that only made things worse, and many times I was called the inferior twin despite being older by 2 minutes………………Mom and Dad tried to help, but they never could understand…………………..you however helped change that………….because you and I bonded on the first day I held you, I felt important………..I felt I had a reason to keep fighting………………I had a beautiful new precious little sister that I had to protect with my life…………even as a baby, your tiny little hand reached up to my face to wipe my tears, and you had such a beautiful smile….………so from then on, I stepped up to the plate, and helped Mom and Dad take care of you…………………through this as the years passed, our bond only grew stronger, and you were not only my little sister, but you became my best friend………………….my best friend in the whole world, and I am so grateful for the day I was taught about adoption in health class because it led to my family finding you………….and you becoming both my precious little sister and my best friend…………………..not a day goes by that I’m not thankful for you……………and after all this time, I’m still grateful for you coming into our lives, especially my life…………………..getting you as a little sister and best friend was the greatest gift any of us could have ever asked for especially me……………..

Princess Erika leaned her head over Cam’s shoulder and gave Cam a VERY LONG gentle kiss on the cheek as tears cascaded down her face…………………and she wouldn’t let go………………………….

Cam: You are the most precious thing in the world to me, and I love you more than anything.  Whether you’re a brat or not doesn’t matter because to me you are still the most wonderful little girl our family could have received, especially me.  You came into my life when I was beginning to go through hard times.  You gave me a reason to keep fighting……………..and I’m eternally grateful to have you as both my little sister and my best friend…………………all the pain we went through was worth it in the very end after we got you………………….

Princess Erika couldn’t stop the tears from pouring down her face, nor could she remove her lips from Cam’s face.  She held the kiss in place, and didn’t let go for a while………

Cam: On top of it, you are a very gifted and talented little girl, ESPECIALLY when it comes to academics.

Princess Erika: REALLY????!!!!!

Cam: Both Troy and I were top honor straight A Students in school, and so are you!!!!  You are one of the smartest girls in your class, and have made the principal’s list more times than any of us have cared to count.
You are also an AMAZING cheerleader, given that you’ve been both the head flyer and captain of the squads during elementary school, and now co-captain and still the head flyer in the 6th grade.
Your squad has also been to a good number of competitions, and is ranked as one of the highest in the state of California’s junior league.

Princess Erika: WOW!!!!!!!

Cam: You are also an AMAZING ballerina during the Christmas Season, and have been given lead rolls in the Nut Cracker time and time again because of your amazing talent.
You’re also a talented figure skater, and have ranked in the top 5 at various skating competitions.
Then again, you’re a beautiful child model given how many photo shoots you get all year, a strong tennis player during the summer, as well as a VERY FAST runner in track & field, and a very talented gymnast in both regular and Rythmic Gymnastics, but……………………your strongest attribute is your love for the water………………you’re an AMAZING championship diver, and synchronized swimmer.  In fact diving and synchronized swimming are your greatest strengths of all your talents.

Princess Erika: WOW!!!!  I REALLY DO ALL THAT????!!!!!

Cam: Yes!!!!

Princess Erika: HOW ON EARTH AM I ABLE TO HANDLE THAT BUSY LIFE????!!!!!

Cam: OHHHHHHH!!!!!!  Troy and I had a busy schedule too!!!!!  We’re level 10 Black Belts in both Karate and Kung Fu, we’re top class fencers, horse riders, ballroom, square, and salsa dancers.  We had voice lessons, guitar lessons, piano lessons, and pipe organ lessons.  We’re also fluent in 10 languages other than English and sign laungauge including Spanish, French, Japanese, Swedish, Icelandic, Portuguese, Italian, German, Latin, and Mandarin.  On top of that Troy was also a football quarterback, star basketball player, star hockey player, star soccer player, star Baseball player, and King of the Video Gaming World.  I on the other hand am a licensed Truck Driver, licensed Helicopter Pilot, FRA Certified Steam Locomotive Engineer and Fireman, have experience in automotive mechanics, and a former street racer.

Princess Erika: MY GOSH!!!!  IT’S LIKE EVERYONE OF US IN THE FAMILY HAS TO LIVE UP TO HIGH EXPECTATIONS!!!!

Cam: Pretty much, but that’s the thing about our family, talents are in our blood, and now Troy and I work for our Uncle’s Gaming Corporation as executives on the board of directors.

Princess Erika: THAT’S AMAZING!!!!

Cam: I know…………..but it must come from the fact that all 3 of us are miracle children in our own ways.

Princess Erika: Also is it true that I’m the most popular girl in school, and that my locker gets full of love notes all the time????!!!!

Cam: YES!!!!!!!  But because you’re so shy, you never respond to any of em, and your friends are constantly having to shoot all the guys down because you don’t have the heart to say no.
Besides you have a HUGE crush on a guy named Daniel whose 15, but you’ve been too shy to approach him because you think he’s out of your league.  

Princess Erika: *Giggles* WOW!!!!!!  I wouldn’t have thought that I’d be so popular with boys, but I never really encountered many, but I am VERY shy which is why I blush a lot and it’s kinda embarrassing.

Cam: I’m very shy when it comes to girls, so you and I are pretty much one in the same.

Princess Erika: I just feel so bad for not remembering everything from the real world…………….

Cam: Don’t feel bad.  Because the game knew your love for the water, and put you in a roll that’s absolutely perfect for you.  It’s been your dream to be a princess in an underwater kingdom, since you were a little girl, and it finally came true.
But heck, you still are a little girl……………….but your dream came true, and I’m so glad that you were given the roll you’ve always wanted whether you remember your life from the real world or not.

Princess Erika: Thank you so much for telling me all of this……………….it really means a lot to me to know that in this world I actually have a real family that loves me.

Cam: Of course you do, both here and in the real world.

Princess Erika: I promise to be the best little sister you and Troy have ever had…………

Cam: You already are!!!!!

Princess Erika: And I promise to not be such a brat to you…………..

Cam: You may say that now, but once we’re back home in the real world, you’ll return to your old self………….

Princess Erika: I’m sorry in advanced…………

Cam: But I wouldn’t have it any other way.  

Cam and Princess Erika finally arrived in the Small Town of Elbe.

Cam: Here we are!!!!

Princess Erika: Our question is where do we go from here?

Cam: The only way up north is by car or train………………unfortunately our car Herbie has been impounded, so our only option is to somehow get on a train…………….

Princess Erika: It’s times like this I wish I wasn’t so stubborn in the passed because we could have used my…………………..

Cam: Hey, I understand why you’re attached to your train that you have on display in your palace…………….

Princess Erika: I was wondering that, myself.  Everytime the head engine crews of The Grand Bay Lake Railroad would try to call and buy the train from me, I’d get so angry out of nowhere, and make a huge fuss, but I don’t know why…………….

Cam: Back in our world, that train is only a 1:20.3 scale model, and was a gift from me to you…………….you fell in love with it, and although 11 is a young age for a model train of a high caliber, you’re also mature for your age, and ready to take on the responsibility of owning your first one.  So I gave Reveille to you, and you told me that it was a special gift from the person you love and care about the most………….so I think the feelings you had from the person who gave it to you in our world meant so much that you couldn’t have the heart to part with the train since it was a gift.  After all, you and I are best friends as well as siblings.

Princess Erika: NOW IT REALLY MAKES SENSE!!!!!  These feelings I have for you, my attachment to the train……………..it’s slowly coming together, though it’s still a lot to swallow…………..

Cam: Hey it’s completely understandable so don’t worry about it.
Right now we just need to focus on finding to get up to Tocoma.

Princess Erika: Right!!!!

Cam and Princess Erika soon make their way to the town’s main train station.  
They soon found the schedule, and it turned out that the next train wasn’t due for another 4 days.

Cam: Well that’s just great!!!

Princess Erika: The Next Train isn’t due for another 4 days!!!!  Now what are we gonna do?

Cam: We’re gonna have to get ahold of a train ourselves………………

Princess Erika: You mean?.................

Cam: We’re gonna have to borrow a locomotive if we can find one.

Cam then gets out his Ipad, and looks at a map of the town.  He soon discovers that a mile and a half east by the town’s warehouse lies a railway yard.

Cam: PERFECT!!!!

Princess Erika: What is it?

Cam: About a mile and a half east of here lies the town’s warehouse, and right next to the town’s warehouse is a railway yard.  
And if you’ve been working on the railroads for a decent amount of time, where there’s a railroad yard, there’s a locomotive.

Princess Erika: AWESOME!!!!

Cam: The sooner we can find a locomotive to hijack, the sooner we can be on our way.

Princess Erika: HIJACK?????!!!!!

Cam: I mean borrow; anyway you put it, once we get ahold of a locomotive, we can be on our way to King Drago and Queen Xayide.

Princess Erika: Quick question, do you know anyone here who can drive one?

Cam: Yes, I recently got certified, plus I’ve been working with trains since I was 15, so no problem.

Princess Erika: Okay, just making sure!!

Meanwhile our friend Herbie made it to the harbor in Eatonville with Rami and Toby safely in his cabin.
Soon he makes his way up a boat ramp, and sets to work on getting all the water out of his engine by shaking side to side as water starts blowing out of his tail pipes.

https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=G3PnznftXsA

Rami: Thanks so much for that Buddy!!!!

Toby: We owe you big time!!!!

Rami: Now lets go!!!!  

Toby: Hold on, I think it’s clearing water out of his engine!!!!

Rami: Of course!!!!!

Herbie continued blowing water out of his engine as more water came gushing and firing out of his tail pipes until only bits of black smoke came out.

Toby: Alright, I think that’s about it!!!!

Rami: Okay the sooner we can get out of here, the sooner we can get help up north, so…………………

Herbie then gunned his throttle to the floor took off off the boat ramp, drifted his rear end hard out onto the main road, and the he took off down the main highway.

Rami: ALRIGHT!!!!!  

Toby: THAT’S MORE LIKE IT!!!!

Rami: The road’s more my style anyways!!!!

Toby: Same here!!!!

Herbie then drives off with Rami and Toby for Tocoma.  Back in Elbe, Cam and Princess Erika finally arrive at the town’s railroad yard.
It was full of a bunch of old train cars that looked like they hadn’t seen use in years.
Princess Erika had regained her strength, and was feeling much better.

Princess Erika: Okay, I’m feeling much better now, so I think it’s okay for you to put me down.

Cam: Are you sure?

Princess Erika: Of course!!!!  I wouldn’t want to burden you any longer, even if I am your little sister, I still feel bad for taken advantage of you.

Cam: You’re not a burden, sweetie.  I’ve been carrying you on my back since you were 3, so it’s not a problem.

Princess Erika: You are very sweet, but still I feel okay enough to walk now, if you don’t mind.

Cam: No problem.

Cam gently lets Princess Erika off of his back and lowers her back onto her feet.

Cam: Feeling alright?

Princess Erika: Yep, just fine, but can you please hold my hand to be safe, if you don’t mind?

Cam: Of course!!!!  We hold hands all the time in the real world, so this is no different.

Princess Erika: Thank you so much!!!!  

Cam gently holds Princess Erika’s hand, and they go searching throughout the train yard.

Princess Erika: There’s A LOT of old train cars here!!!!

Cam: Some look like they haven’t seen use in years!!!!  Nonetheless, there’s still bound to be a locomotive somewhere…………..

Princess Erika: I sure hope you’re right.

Cam and Princess Erika wander throughout the railroad yard, and stumble across more and more antique train cars.  Some dating back to the 1800s, but soon enough……………..

Cam: BINGO!!!!!!

Princess Erika: What is it????!!!...............WOOOOOAAAAAAAHHHH!!!!!!!!!

At the far end of a track spur by a water tower next to the town’s main warehouse, was a VERY BEAUTIFUL Narrow Gauge Class 8-18D 2-6-0 Mogul Steam locomotive.

Cam: We have the answer to our problem!!!!!

Princess Erika: It looks A LOT like the one in my palace!!!!

Cam: It’s the same class, a Narrow Gauge 8-18D 2-6-0 Mogul.  However there are several differences……………..

Princess Erika: Oh?

Cam: Yours is in Baldwin’s Passenger paint livery, where as this is in Baldwin’s Freight livery given that yours is more extravagant, and this is more simple and clean cut.
You can see some of the paint has faded, and has begun to peel off, but that’s probably because this is used for freight service between Elbe & Tocoma………..

Princess Erika: Elbe & Tocoma Western……………..that’s what it says on the sides of, is that a tender?

Cam: Yep!!!  It is.  Elbe & Tocoma Western is the road name that the engine belongs to.  Like yours says Grand Bay Lake on the sides of its tender.  And the tender is where the water and fuel supply are stored.

Princess Erika: I was wondering why a locomotive had a small car right behind it, and now I know why!!!

Cam: Yep, to carry its water and fuel supply, and that fuel would be wood, coal, or in this case oil, and the oil on the engines in Grand Bay Lake are Bio-Diesel.  Maybe this is a bio-diesel fired engine as well………………

Princess Erika: And on these small panels by what appears to be the cockpit, I’m reading the name Raton?

Cam: Yep!!!  This is the cab, and the cab is pretty much the locomotive’s cockpit, and Raton that you’re reading on the cab’s side panels is the name of the engine.  The name Raton comes from the town of Raton in New Mexico, which was a stop along the Denver & Rio Grande Western, and the town got it's name from Raton Pass, which was a mountain range the trains traveled through on the Denver & Rio Grande.

Princess Erika: WOW!!!!

Cam: Yours is called Reveille, named after the town of Reveille, Nevada along the route of the Eureka & Palisade Railroad.  The other engines at Grand Bay Lake are called C.K. Holliday, Emma Nevada, Myrtle, Eureka, Ward Kimball, and Roger E. Broggie.  This one’s name is Raton like the town and the mountain pass.

Princess Erika: That’s awesome!!!!

Cam: This one’s got the brass steam dome, and pin striped fluted dome tops and bottoms, but they’re clean lined pin stripes.  Whereas the ones on yours are more fancy and colorful like a piece of art.
However this one does have the same Dark Russian Iron Blue boiler jacket, shiny boiler brass bands and handrails, black lifting injector branch pipes, beautifully pin-striped bell cradle, a beautiful bronze bell with beautiful red interior, beautiful Lake Brown colored drive wheels with gorgeous pin-stripes on the spokes, hubs, and inside of the tires, red Stevenson Valve Gear eccentrics, a lake brown colored frame, brass crosshead feet water pumps with black and copper branch pipes, and gold brass steam chest and cylinder engine jackets with chrome silver cylinder head and valve top covers.  It’s got the same lake brown colored and white pin-striped headlamp bracket, lake brown colored kerosene burning headlamp with beautiful artwork murals and pin-stripes, black smoke box and beautiful chrome silver smoke box supports.
Unfortunately you can see that the wheels, connecting rods, under carriage, valve gear eccentrics, and cross head feed water pumps are all covered in black dirt, grease, and grime, and the steam cylinder engines are covered in black baked steam oil, but that’s what happens when you put a steam engine to work, and have it highly active; it’ll get dirty.

Princess Erika: WOW!!!!  I can’t get over the similarities between this one and mine, but I was gonna say, mine’s A WHOLE LOT cleaner, but it’s understandable.
Yet I notice a few more differences between this one and mine…………

Cam: Yep, yours has a large wood burning balloon stack, where as this one is a smaller coal burning spark arresting diamond stack.  This one also has crosshead feed water pumps on both sides, where as yours only has it on the fireman’s or left hand side.  This engine’s front pilot deck is beautifully pin-striped like yours, but is slightly larger in being wider and longer, and features a wooden pilot cow-catcher whereas yours is smaller and thinner with a strap-steel pilot cow-catcher.
Also this one’s more of a replica of a Coal burner off the Denver & Rio Grande in Colorado and New Mexico, whereas yours is a replica of a wood burner off the Eureka & Palisade in Nevada.  
But when it comes down to it mechanically down the last nuts and bolts, this engine and yours are practically the same.

Princess Erika: That’s cool!!!!  

Cam: Now that we have our engine, it’s time for me to fire her up, and get her going…….

Princess Erika: Okay!!!!

Cam climbs into the locomotives cab, opens up the long black canvas cab curtains, and ties em off to the sides before attempting to set to work.
Cam soon notices the main pressure gauge, and sees that there’s still 80 pounds of pressure left in the boiler.

Cam: AWESOME!!!!

Princess Erika: What is it?  

Cam: We still have 80 pounds of boiler pressure on the main gauge, so I can probably have this thing good to go in less than an hour.

Princess Erika: That’s great!!!!

Cam: Now I just need to………………

Cam soon notices a hand print touch panel located pretty far up in the fireman’s side of the cab right by the Mapo box near the fireman’s side front door.

Cam: Hand print touch panel…………….I wonder what this does?

Cam placed his hand on the hand print identification touch panel, and to his surprise, his handprint was accepted.

Voice: Handprint Identification acknowledged!!!!  Commencing Start up right away!!!!

And like that the steam injector branch pipes opened on their own, all the valves on the whistle turret opened on their own, the firing valve moved 2 notches by itself before the automatic electronic ignition activated, and got the fire in the firebox lit on its own, and the water glass both drained and refilled itself.

Cam: WOW!!!!!

Princess Erika: WHAT THE????!!!!  CAM, WHAT DID YOU DO????!!!!!

Cam: AUTOMATIC COMPUTERIZED FIRING SYSTEM!!!!!  CHRISTIAN & JUAN MANDEZ YOU GUYS DID IT!!!!!!

Princess Erika: CAM, WHAT’S GOING ON????!!!!

Cam: I ONLY TOUCHED A HAND PRINT IDENTIFICATION TOUCH PANEL, AND MY HAND PRINT WAS ACCEPTED!!!!  SHORTLY AFTER THE LOCOMOTIVE PRACTICALLY FIRED ITSELF UP!!!!

Princess Erika: WOW!!!!  THAT’S AWESOME!!!!!

Cam: I KNOW!!!!  THE ENGINE’S COMPUTER’S PRETTY MUCH DOING ALL THE WORK!!!!   The only thing I have to do now is oil!!!!!

Princess Erika: How is it that it accepted your hand print?

Cam: Because in the real world, like your train, this one is also a 1:20.3 scale model, and it's my favorite engine in my collection.

Princess Erika: That's so cool!!!!

Cam then grabs 2 oil cans, hops out of the engine, and sets to work on oiling up the steam cylinder engines, the connecting rods, the valve gear eccentrics, the front pilot bogie, the pilot axle bearings, the main drive axle bearings, and the tender axle bearings.  It only takes Cam a total of 10 minutes to get all the oiling done, and now it was just up to the engine to build up boiler pressure………….

Cam: Well, that just about does it!!!!  We just need to wait for the boiler to reach 150 pounds, and we’re good to go!!!

Princess Erika: AWESOME!!!!

Cam: Go ahead and climb on in!!!!

Princess Erika climbs on into the cab, and Cam follows.

Cam: Go ahead, sit down and make yourself comfortable sweetie!!!!  I’m gonna top off our water level since we’re right by the water tower.

Princess Erika: Alright!!!!

Princess Erika, feeling a little intimidated to sit in the engineer’s and fireman’s seat, gets out a small little cushion, places it on a ledge behind the Johnson Bar/Reverser’s linkage next to the engineer’s seat, lifts up her skit, sits down, and makes herself comfortable.  
Cam climbs onto the top of the tender, walks over the fake coal load and over to the water filler, opens up the water filler hatch, picks up a long hook and hooks it to the tower’s water spout.  Using the hook, Cam then pulls down on the water spout, and gently places it into the filler.  Cam then unhooks the hook from the spout, reaches out with the hook to a large valve on the tower, opens it up, and starts filling up the tender tank with water.
Meanwhile inside the water tower itself, somebody named Jim West was having a little too much fun with his girlfriend Belle.
Jim West is a Police Officer and will become of help to Cam A LOT sooner than we expect.
Jim West peeps out a small hole in the water tower, and notices an empty horse drawn cart coming close to the warehouse by the water tower.

https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=yQ0FgE-WKi8

Jim West: General Ren’s Boys!!!!  Waitin for ya’ll for a week, and you show up now???!!!!!

Belle: Jim?  You wouldn’t be workin up here tonight now, would you????!!!!!

Jim West: Workin?????!!!!!  Now would you be workin if you were up here with you???!!!!

Jim West and his girlfriend Belle go back to having their fun, while back down by the warehouse, the horse cart parks next to the warehouse by the water tower, and workmen begin loading up the cart with liquid nitro.
Princess Erika gets up, climbs on top of the tender tank, and makes her way over to Cam to ask him what’s going on?

Princess Erika: Hey Cam?

Cam: Yes Sweetie?

Princess Erika: What would a horse drawn cart be doing here?

Cam: They just probably need to get something out of the warehouse, so it shouldn’t be anything unusual.

Back inside the water tower, things were starting to heat up with Jim West and his girlfriend Belle as they were going a little bit further with their fun…………

Jim West: Mmmmmmmmmmm……………….Mmmmmmmmmm………………AHHHHHHHHHH…….WOOOOOOOOOOOOOO!!!!!!!!

Unfortunately, Jim West takes his focus off of his girlfriend, and peeps out the hole to check on the horse cart……………….

Workmen: Pack it up good boys!!!!!  Next Stop Eatenville!!!!!  

Workmen throw boxes of liquid nitroglycerin onto the cart, and it begins to spook the horses causing them to whinny.

Princess Erika: What do you think is in those crates?

Cam: No idea, but I don’t think I like the looks of this!

Workmen: Gotta get this shipped off to General Ren ASAP!!!!!

Back in the water tower, Jim West was focusing too much on the workmen, and not enough on his girlfriend Belle, making her suspicious as she frowned at him.

Jim West: I’M NOT WORKING!!!!!

Belle then grabs a piece of Jim West’s clothing and shoves it into the small peep hole in the side of the water tower.

Belle: PROBLEM SOLVED!!!!

Jim West: HOLD ON THERE BELLE, YOU JUST CAN’T GO RAMMING A MAN’S PERSONAL THINGS INTO SOME HOLE LIKE THAT????!!!!!

Belle: IS THAT SOOOOO?????!!!!!!!

Belle went back to making out with Jim West, but Jim was taking it back.

Jim West: I didn’t mean it like that????!!!!

Jim West then notices the water level get lower and lower as Cam continues filling up the locomotive’s water tank.

Jim West: Is it me here, or is this water level getting lower????!!!!!

Belle: Why does it matter????!!!!!

Jim West and Belle went back to making out as more liquid nitro was being loaded onto the horse cart causing the horses to freak out even more, and breaking a main support column to the water tower.
Meanwhile, Raton’s water tank had finally reached the top of the filler.

Cam: ALRIGHT!!!!  That ought to do it!!!!  

Cam then gets out the long hook, shuts off the water tower’s main shut off valve before hooking up the hook to the end of the waterspout.
The last of the nitroglycerin is loaded onto the horse cart causing the horses to scream, jamming the cart wheels against a second support column, and breaking it in the process.
At the same time, Cam pushes the water spout away from him, and back towards the tower when the water tower goes flying backwards and crashes into the top of the glass roof of the warehouse.
This causes both Cam and Princess Erika to panic because they both automatically think they’re at fault for the damage.

Princess Erika: CAM, WHAT DID YOU DO?????!!!!!

Cam: I DIDN’T MEAN TO DO THAT????!!!!!

As the water tower comes crashing into the glass roof of the warehouse, water comes pouring out of the top of the tower like a giant waterfall.

Jim West: UH-OH!!!!

 Jim gets stuck in the water current, comes flying out of the top of the tower naked before landing on top of hay bail before the last of the entire water supply from the tower drains on him.

Cam: OOOOPS!!!!!  I hope I’ve got enough money to cover the damage because I didn’t plan for this…………………

Princess Erika: Lets get out of here as soon as we can!!!!!

Inside the warehouse Jim West stands up as a bunch of workmen look at him shocked as if they had seen a ghost.

Jim West: WOOOOAAAAAHHHH!!!!!!  THAT WAS FUN!!!!!  WHICH ONE OF YOU BOYS WANTS TO STRIP DOWN AND GO NEXT??????!!!!!  I BET YOU DO!!!!
I SURE COULD USE SOME CLOTHES DOWN HERE MAM!!!!!

Belle throws Jim his hat, and Jim uses it to cover his vital area as the workmen attempt to start a fight with him.

Workman: WELL, WELL!!!!  WE GOT US A SHINY………………..

Before the workman could finish his sentence, Jim West beat him, and all the other workmen inside the warehouse until he was the last man standing.

Jim West: PANTS!!!!!!!

Belle throws Jim the rest of his clothes, and Jim gets dressed right away.  He then sees the idling steam engine, Raton right outside the warehouse and scrambles over to it as quick as possible, while the horses run off with the cart without a driver.

Jim West: EXCUSE ME YOU 2, BUT I’M A POLICE OFFICER, AND I NEED TO COMMANDEER THIS VEHICLE!!!!!

Cam: So, do we!!!!!  

Princess Erika: Our friends are in trouble, and we have to get up to Tocoma as quickly as possible!!!!

Cam: We have a score to settle with Ren!!!!

Jim West: PERFECT!!!!!  I HAVE UNFINISHED BUSINESS TO SETTLE WITH HIM MYSELF!!!!!

Cam: WELCOME ABOARD!!!!  WE CAN USE THE HELP!!!!

Princess Erika: YEAH, THE MORE THE MERRIER!!!!!

Cam: I’M CAMARO MAY VON LUDWING, BUT EVERYONE CALLS ME CAM, AND THIS IS MY LITTLE SISTER PRINCESS ERIKA VON LUDWIG OF THE UNDERWATER CASTAWAY SAPPHIRE KINGDOM!!!……………

Jim West: A pleasure to meet you 2!!!!  I’m Officer Jim West!!!!

Cam: Nice to meet you!!!!

The engine’s low pressure safety valve pops off as the engine’s boiler pressure reaches 155 PSI.

Cam: ALRIGHT!!!!  WE’VE GOT THE BOILER PRESSURE WE NEED, SO YOU 2 SIT DOWN, AND I’LL GET US MOVING!!!!!

Jim West sits down in the fireman’s seat as Princess Erika sits on her small pillow on the ledge by the engineer’s seat while Cam climbs out of the engine, and pull the safety chains out from underneath the wheels.
He then climbs back into the cab, as the main valve on the steam turret opens up, and the steam locomotive’s Westinghouse Air Compressor begins firing off with a……………….

BANG……………….BANG…………..BAG…………BANG…………….BANG……..BANG……..BANG……BANG………..BANG, BANG, BANG, BANG, BANG, BANG, BANG, BANG, BANG, BANG, BANG, BANG, BANG, BANG, BANG, BANG, BANG, BANG, BANG, BANG, BANG……………..

Signaling that the engine was ready to go as Cam climbed back into the cab after throwing the safety chains on top of the tender.

Cam: ALRIGHT, TIME TO GET MOVING!!!!  WHERE DO YOU NEED US TO TAKE YOU OFFICER?

Jim West: AS FAR NORTH AS THIS TRAIN LING GOES!!!!!

Cam: YOU GOT IT BECAUSE THAT’S WHERE PRINCESS ERIKA AND I ARE GOING!!!!!

Princess Erika: YEP!!!!!

Cam then releases the handbrakes off the tender, sits down in the engineer’s seat, gives 3 blasts on the whistle as the engine’s bell begins ringing on its own through the movement of the locomotive’s computer solenoids.
Cam then throws the Johnson Bar/Reverser in reverse before gently bumping the throttle open, and Raton slowly and gracefully backs up away from the roundhouse and out of the railroad yard.

Cam: It was a dead end up ahead in forward, so it looks like we need to go in reverse!!!!

Jim West: Hey, as long as we get there, that’s all that matters!!!!

Princess Erika: YEP!!!!
I was at first cold, now I’m getting a little hot, do you mind if I take off my cardigan?

Cam: Not a problem.

Princess Erika gently removes her cardigan, and places it in her item storage as the Raton locomotive backs out of the train yard, couples up to a flat bed, and steams out onto the main line in reverse.
Meanwhile not so far away, another police officer named Artemus Gordon jumps onto the runaway horse cart carrying the liquid nitroglycerin, and struggles to take control.

Artemus Gordon: HOLY SHIT, THIS IS NOT WHAT I HAD PLANNED FOR!!!!!

The horses soon detach from the horse cart, leaving Artemus Gordon powerless to stop it.

Artemus Gordon: UH-OH!!!!! OH SHIT!!!!!!

Meanwhile Raton was steaming down the railroad line at the speed of 20 miles an hour, but soon the runaway horse cart came into view as it made its way onto the railroad tracks, and into the direct path of the reversing train.

Cam: OH, FLYIN FUCKEN SHIT!!!!!  THIS IS NOT WHAT I WAS HOPING FOR!!!!!

Cam throws his Johnson Bar/Reverser forward causing the wheels to spin like mad before Cam shuts this throttle and rams on the whistle chord with a VERY LOUD………..

WHOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOO!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!

The runaway horse cart crashed into the flat car on the train, causing all the crates of liquid nitro to slide directly off the cart and onto the flat bed.
This also caused Artemus Gordon to go flying off the runaway horse cart, and land on top of the fake coal load on Raton’s tender.

Jim West: NOW WHAT IS THIS????!!!!!  WE CAN’T BE PICKING UP SOME STOW AWAY?????!!!!!!

Artemus Gordon: I AM NOT A STOW AWAY, I AM A MAGIC KINGDOM MARTIAL!!!!!!

Artemus Gordn then brings out his badge and shows it to Cam, Princess Erika, and Jim West.

Artemus Gordon: NOW I AM COMMANDEERING THIS VEHICLE, BECAUSE THAT IS OVER 500 POUNDS OF LIQUID NITRO THAT REN HAS ON ORDER FOR THE USE OF HIS ARMY!!!!!!

Jim West: NITRO?????!!!!!!!  THIS IS NOT A PROPPER WAY TO TRANSPORT NITRO!!!!!!

Artemus Gordon: I KNOW, WHICH IS WHY I WAS TRYING TO GET AHOLD OF THE HORSE CART, SO I COULD STOP IT BEFORE IT COULD GO CRASHING INTO A BUILDING AND BLOW UP AN ENTIRE TOWN………………..

Cam: UUUUUUUGGGGGHHHHH!!!!!

Cam then gets out his item storage gun, and puts all of the liquid nitro in his item storage.

Cam: THERE, PROBLEM SOLVED!!!!

Cam then notices a large fuel tank full of Bio-Diesel connecting to a large hose that was a perfect fit for Raton’s fuel filler.

Cam: AND PERFECT!!!!!  While we’re here we can top off our fuel too.
The name is Camaro Von Ludwig, and although you 2 men are commandeering the locomotive, well so am I, and so is my little sister!!!!  We all have the same enemy that we need to settle business with, and that is Ren for the short term, but King Drago and Queen Xayide for the long term.
Now we’re not gonna get anywhere if you 2 are gonna constantly fight!!!!
And if you’ll excuse me, I need to get us refueling so we can be on our way.

As Cam sets out to get the Bio-Diesel hose to get the engine refueled, Erika speaks up and gives the 2 officers the low down.

Princess Erika: EXACTLY!!!!!  I am Princess Erika of the Cast Away Sapphire Kingdom from Sapphire Bay out in the water of Grand Bay Lake.  And by Royal Decree, my big Brother Camaro is under my orders to settle the scores with King Drago and Queen Xayide.  Now with you 2 on board our train, that also puts you 2 under my orders as well.
We have the same enemies, and therefor we have to work together!!!!  You must put aside your differences and work as a team if you wanna stay on board!!!!  Failure to do so, and neither of you are going up to Tocoma!!!!

Artemus Gordon: That’s funny coming out of the mouth of a little girl!!!!

Jim West: Darling, I don’t think you know the severity of the situation!!!!

Princess Erika: Correction, you guys don’t know how severe the situation is!!!!  MY HAND MAIDENS AND PERSONAL BEST FRIENDS HAVE ALL BEEN CAPTURED BY REN’S ARMY!!!!!  THIS INCLUDES PRINCESSES CHLOE AND MACKENZIE, THEIR GUARDIAN CARLA, AND MY GUARDIAN MANAKA!!!!!  
THEIR PEOPLE OF GRAND BAY LAKE AS WELL AS THE ENTIRE MAGIC KINGDOM, AND MY PEOPLE OF THE UNDERWATER CASTAWAY SAPPHIRE KINGDOM ARE IN GRAVE DANGER OF BEING WIPED OUT INTO EXTINCTION!!!!!

Cam: GOT THE HOSE!!!!!

Cam then climbs back into Raton’s cab, places the hose into the small fuel filler located on a small wooden panel at the front of the tender, opens the fueling valve, and fresh Bio-Diesel is soon pumped into Raton’s tender tank.
Cam then quickly hops back out of the cab, locks the couplers in place, hooks up the air brake hoses and safety chains, and climbs back in the cab to finish the refueling process.


To Be Continued…………………

Journey Through The Frozen Tundra

Princess Erika: AS THE LAST ROYAL PRINCESS STANDING, THIS TRAIN IS UNDER MY DISPOSAL, AND THIS MISSION IS UNDER MY COMMAND!!!!!
I KNOW I’M JUST A LITTLE GIRL WEARING ONLY A SWIMSUIT, BUT I STILL HAVE A RESPONSIBILITY TO ENSURE THE SAFETY OF MY PEOPLE, AND THE SAFETY OF MY FRIEND’S PEOPLE!!!!! YOU 2 DO AS MY BROTHER AND I TELL YOU TO DO, AND WE’LL MANAGE JUST FINE!!!!!
IF WE FAIL THIS MISSION, KING DRAGO, AND QUEEN XAYIDE WILL REMOVE THE SEAL ON THE FORBIDDEN ISLAND OF ISLA SORNA, AND UNLEASH A TERRIFYING EVIL THAT WILL WIPE OUT THE ENTIRE MAGIC KINGDOM!!!!!
NOW THE SOONER WE GET TO TOCOMA, THE BETTER!!!!! PUT ASIDE YOUR DIFFERENCES AND WORK TOGETHER!!!!!

Cam: If you think she’s joking; she’s NOT, and you’d be wise to listen to my little sister!!!!

Jim West: Well, is there anything you can do to help Gordon?

Artemus Gordon: I’m an inventor, and if any of you need artillery built, I can help you with that!!!! I can also help put some weapons on the locomotive to ensure your safety incase we encounter enemy fire.

Cam: Hmmmmmmmm!!!! I do have the cannon from the helicopter that Poe, Finn, and I used when Ren’s army of fighter jets chased us, and I still have the liquid nitro in my item storage.
If you can make something by putting the 2 together as a defense mechanism on the flat car, that could help protect our train from enemy attacks.

Artemus Gordon: No problem, I will set to work at once!!!!

Cam then gets out his item storage gun, separates the cannon from the broken down helicopter, presses the unload button, and unloads the cannon onto the flat car along with all the liquid nitroglycerin.
Artemus Gordon then climbs out of Raton’s cab and onto the flat car before setting to work on making the cannon more effective.
Inside Raton’s cab, an alarm beeps as the fuel level has reached full capacity in the oil bin of the tender.

Cam: ALRIGHT!!!! Our fuel level’s full, so we’re good to go!!!!

Cam shuts off the fuel valve from the hose, tosses the hose aside, and sits back down in the engineer’s seat.

Cam: READY BACK THERE GORDON????!!!!!

Artemus Gorden: Just picking up the last pieces from the wrecked cart!!!! I might have use for it!!!!

Cam: Alright!!!!

Artemus Gordon soon as all the pieces from the wrecked horse cart picked up and loaded onto the flat bed, and is soon ready to set to work.

Artemus Gordon: ALRIGHT!!!! I’VE GOT ALL THE PIECES I NEED, SO LET’S GO!!!! I CAN WORK ON THIS WHILE WE’RE ON OUR WAY!!!!

Cam: SOUNDS GOOD!!!!

Cam then releases the brakes on the tender and flat car before throwing the Johnson Bar/Reverser back in reverse, gives 3 blasts on the whistle, eases the throttle back open, and the locomotive gets moving again.
Soon Raton is steaming smoothly along the line; her fire was burning nicely, the computer was making the necessary adjustments when needed, boiler pressure was holding up at a solid 150 PSI, but as the train begins climbing through the mountain ranges towards Eatonville, the train heads towards the Frozen Tundra, which is the coldest spot in all of the Magic Kingdom.

Artemous Gordon: THERE IT IS!!!!

Cam: The Frozen Tundra!!!!

Jim West: Coldest Place in the Magic Kingdom!!!!

Princess Erika: Good thing we’re nice and warm in here!!!

Cam: And Gordon better get his ass in here otherwise he’ll freeze!!!!

Jim West: GORDON……………..GORDON!!!!!!! GET YOUR ASS IN HERE!!!!!! YOU’RE GONNA FREEZE TO DEATH OUT THERE!!!!

Artemus Gordon: JUST A MOMENT, I’M ALMOST DONE WITH THE CANNON!!!!

Using all the wrought iron, stainless steal, and wrecked wood material from the destroyed horse cart from his item storage, Gordon was able to put the cannon on its own set of wheels.
He was also able to make it so that the whole cannon could rotate a full 180 degrees from one end to another, and rotate on small set of rollers on top of its cart a full 360 degrees. He also made it so the cannon could use both a variety of bullets, as well as the ability to launch the bottles full of liquid nitro.

Artemus Gordon: I THINK I GOT IT!!!!!!

Lastly, Artemus Gordon added a telescope on top of the cannon’s nozzle to enhance the aiming precision to increase the chances of making direct hits on enemies.

Artemus Gordon: I GOT IT!!!!!

Artemus Gordon then chained the cannon down onto the flat car, and using a set of ratcheting straps, tied it down good and secure before securing a tarp over the cannon to protect it from the elements.

Cam: A SNOW STORM’S ABOUT TO APPROACH!!!!!

Artemus Gordon: WE NEED A HEADLIGHT!!!!!

Working quickly, Artemous Gordon gets out a large oiling burning headlamp, swaps out the kerosene burner for an LED Bulb from General Electric, places a lithium ion battery into a small pedestal stand for the lamp, and bolts the lamp down onto the back of the flat car along with a wireless camera before making his way back over to the engine.

Jim West: GORDON, GET IN HERE NOW!!!!

Artemus Gordon: ON THE WAY!!!!!

Artemus Gordon climbs off the flat car and onto the tender before making his way over the fake coal load, and into Raton’s cab.

Artemus Gordon: THAT’S MUCH BETTER!!!!!

Artemus Gordon then gets out a large velvet cushion, places it down on the ledge of the cab floor next to the fireman’s seat, and sits down.

Artemus Gordon: I was starting to get cold out there, but it’s nice and warm in here!!!! Allow me to properly introduce myself, I’m Artemus Gordon at your service!!!!

Jim West: I know who you are!!!! You and I have been partnered up on the police force more times than I’d care to remember!

Artemus Gordon: Well that’s a little harsh!!!!

Cam: I’m Camaro Von Ludwig, and this is my little sister Princess Erika Von Ludwig of the Underwater Castaway Sapphire Kingdom.

Princess Erika: Nice to meet you!!!! Sorry I was a little demanding back there, but the fighting was not getting us anywhere.

Jim West: No problem darling; you just want what’s best for your people.

Artemus Gordon: And that is completely understandable. When did all this chaos with General Ren start happening?

Cam: Close to 1:00 p.m is when Ren’s Army invaded The Magical City Of Grand Baylake……………..A
t 1:45 my friends consisting of Grand Bay Lake’s Royal Princesses Chloe and Mackenzie along with their hand-maidens Chelia Blendy and Wendy Marvell, as well as their guardian Carla, their royal guards Poe & Finn…………..

Princess Erika: Along with my hand-maidens Sayu Hisanuma, and Miuna Shiodome, my guardian Manaka Mukaido, our royal guards Helmsley and Ramsley…………….

Cam: As well as my twin Brother Troy June Von Ludwig, our friends Rami and Toby from the Magic Kingdom Grand Prix, our Robot Johnny 5, our car Herbie, and myself set off on Princess Erika’s Private Yacht.
The plan was for us to dock in Eatonville, get ahold of a train there, and make our way through the mountain range to Tocoma 30 miles away.
Yet here we are going through the Frozen Tundra after leaving Elbe to get to Eatonville 25 miles away.

Jim West: How did you 2 end up here?

Artemus Gordon: And why weren’t you involved until now your highness?

Princess Erika: My Royal obligations as Princess forbid me from leaving the underwater Kingdom unless it’s an emergency…………………..

Cam: Meanwhile my friends and I all wound up getting captured by Captain Blue Beard and his pirates.
However none of us go down without a fight, but we were defeated.
I wound my way onto the plank, and shortly after I cut off Blue Beard’s well beard…………..I was forced to walk the plank and wound up into the icy water……………..

Jim West & Artemus Gordon: OOOOOOOOOOOOOOO!!!!!!!

Princess Erika: I knew something was wrong……………..I knew that after hearing about what the invasion that happened in Grand Bay Lake, it was a big enough emergency for me to leave my Kingdom……………so my Dolphin Sammy and I set off to find my yacht, but when we arrive it’s too late……………..everyone of my friends was captured, and my brother Cam here had walked the plank, and was in a dire situation.
Sammy and I swim far and wide to Find Cam, and luckily we find him and not a moment too soon.

Cam: After swimming for a little over 20 minutes, I lose consciousness right as Princess Erika and her dolphin Sammy find me.
They take me to a small pebble beach outside of Elbe, and Princess Erika uses healing Magic on me to save my life.

Artemus Gordon: How were you able to survive the icy cold waters and he wasn’t?

Princess Erika: My swimsuits, such as the one I’m wearing right now, have magical built in temperature adapters that allow me to swim comfortably in waters as cold as sub zero degrees without freezing and as hot as 300 degrees without burning……….as member of the royal family I’m required to wear a temperature adapting swimsuit like this one while in the water at all times………………Cam was not so lucky since he was in normal clothes……………..
Had Sammy and I been a moment too late, it’s possible that Cam would have died……………it breaks my heart to even think that………………..

Cam: But she saved my life, and I owe her my personal protection as well as my eternal gratitude………………….

Princess Erika: Hey, it was nothing…………….I can’t let someone as important as you die……………..especially now that I know you’re actually my big brother………………….

Cam: It’s a long story, but Princess Erika and I are not of this world, and neither is our brother Troy Von Ludwig…………….all 3 of us actually designed this world as a video game to save my uncle’s company from going into Chapter 11 bankruptcy……………..we all got sucked into the game, wound up in this world………….

Princess Erika: My memory of being Cam and Troy’s little sister got erased………..and I wound up becoming the royal princess of the Underwater Castaway Sapphire Kingdom just outside of Grand Bay Lake………………..after I rescued Cam, he tells me of our relationship from the real world…………………I still have no memory of it, but somehow my feelings of love for him still retained in my heart, and for that I believed every word he told me about me being his little sister………………..

Cam: After I told her about our relationship in the real world, we arrive in Elbe, and with our car impounded on the pirate ship, we make our way to the train station……….

Princess Erika: Unfortunately, the next train in isn’t due for a few days, and we don’t have that amount of time.

Cam: So we look at the maps on the Ipad, and luckily we come across the railroad yard, and where there’s a railroad yard, there’s a locomotive.

Princess Erika: We were VERY LUCKY to come across this one!!!!

Cam: And it turns out that this steam engine is a steam/electric hybrid where the entire fireman’s side of the locomotive is run off a computer.
All that’s needed to start it up is a hand print identification, and it accepted my hand print no problem.
I know the builders of this locomotive, Christian an Juan Mandez of the Mandez Locomotive & Machine Works, and they’ve been pushing for a locomotive like this for YEARS!!!!!!! I’d never thought they’d succeed at it given how complex the variables and equations that goes on when firing a locomotive, but they got it down.

Princess Erika: Right after Cam and I get ahold of the train, we run into you guys, and here we are.

Artemus Gordon: How is it that you’re able to operate the locomotive?

Cam: I’m an FRA Certified steam locomotive engineer and fireman back in the real world where Princess Erika and I come from…………

Jim West: What are your plans so far?

Cam: Our goal is to set up a base camp in Tocoma and come up with a strategy to take down the Koopalings Iggy, Lemmy, Larry, Wendy, Morton, Roy O, and Ludwig before tackling Ren along with King Drago and Queen Xayide.

Artemus Gordon: VERY interesting. Your garments allow you to survive in waters of various temperatures, and some in where most humans won’t survive, and we have a steam train that can practically fire itself.

Jim West: I’m just watching all these valves here opening and closing on their own, and it’s a little creepy, but also kinda neat too.

Cam: I believe there are tiny nano solenoids inside the valves that allow them to open and close……………….

Princess Erika: Maybe there are tiny magical nanos in my swimsuit that allow me to adapt to the various temperatures without boiling or freezing to death………………….

Artemus Gordon: Nano technology is coming a long ways, but I’d never thought they’d advance this far……………….

Cam: I’ll check to see if there are any spare valves in the tool boxes on the tender that you can look at……………

Princess Erika gets out her item storage gun, and selects her wet swimsuit as Cam gets out of the cab, climbs onto the tender, and searches the tool box.

Cam: AHHH-HAAAA!!!! I GOT ONE!!!!

Cam scrambles back into the cab and hands Artemus Gordon the spare injector ram valve while Princess Erika hands him her wet swimsuit.

Princess Erika: Here you go Artemus if you’re interested………….it’s exactly the same as the one I’m wearing right now, except the colors are different.

Cam: Maybe you’ll find the nano technology you’re looking for in these…………

Princess Erika: Just be sure to return it because it’s my favorite……………..

Cam: And we may need that spare injector valve incase either one of these stop working and fail, but I don’t want to jynx it.

Artemus Gordon: No problem!!!! I’ll get looking into these at once…………..

Princess Erika: *BLUSHES BRIGHT PINK AND SCREAMS* AHHHHHHH!!! HOLD ON!!!!

Princess Erika yanks out her blue bikini bottoms from the pile of the wet swimsuit before Artemus Gordon could get to work on his research.

Princess Erika: *BLUSHES BRIGHTER PINK* It would be so embarrassing if I were to lose these, let alone give these to a stranger since they’re practically my second pair of underwear!!!!

Artemus Gordon: I’m gonna pretend I didn’t hear that, but maybe I can use some of the temperature adapting nanos on the cannon, as well as the nano solenoids found in this valve depending on how far I go.

Artmus Gordon gets out his small powerful microscopes from his item storage, and sets to work on inspecting the swimsuit and inject valve at once.

Artemus Gordon: Interesting.................upon inspection, you would never guess that there are this many nanos working about here!!!! They're microscopic on the clothing, but of a decent size on the inside of the valve...................

Jim West: WOAH!!!!! IT SURE IS GETTING COLD!!!!

Princess Erika: Yeah!!!! Cam, would you mind handing me back my Cardigan?

Cam: Of course!!!!

Cam helps Princess Erika put her pink cardigan back on before giving her his heavy wool jacket.

Princess Erika: HEY CAM; DON’T DO THAT, YOU’LL FREEZE!!!!

Cam: It’s okay; I’m fine!!!!! You’re right by the cab opening, and I’m closer to the boiler. You're a tiny girl, and I'm a big guy, so you need this way more than I do.

Princess Erika: You’re so sweet……………..

Cam: This is what big brothers are for, right? To protect their little sisters.

Princess Erika: I Love you Cam……………

Cam: I love you too sweetie…………….

A cold blast of wind comes gushing into the cab.

Everyone: WOOOOOAAAAAHHH!!!!!!!

Cam: I’m gonna close these curtains, and these windows!!!!!

Artemus Gordon: Perfect, time to put the wireless camera to work!!!!

As Cam closes the curtains at the back of the cab along with all the windows and doors, Artemus Gordon places his Ipad on the small shelf by the oil cans below the throttle linkage and activates the wireless camera on the back of the flat car.

Cam: AWESOME!!!! Now I can still see where we are going!!!!

Artemus Gordon: I knew that would come in handy!!!!!

Jim West: How long do you think it’ll be before we’re able to reach Tocoma?

Cam: We left Elbe close to 4, and since Tocoma is about 50 miles from Elbe, plus we’ll have to stop for fuel and water once we reach Eatonville, so my guess would be we’d arrive around 7 or 8 p.m. in Tocoma…………………..

Artemus Gordon: Perfect, that gives us all night to plan everything.

The train climbs higher and higher into the mountains as it steams through the Frozen Tundra.
Back on the main road in the mountain range north of Eatonville, Herbie along with our friends Rami and Toby were well underway.

https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=YrRB8lcBlqc

Herbie thundered threw tunnels, roared over bridges, and sped up and down hills at a WHOPPING 80 miles an hour with his engine redlining at 5000 RPM.
Herbie soon zipped and drifted around tight bends like he would on a race track, and even got air bourn on some parts of the road.
Herbie was determined to get to Tocoma so he could try to find a way to save the rest of his friends as he, Rami, and Toby were making good time.

Rami: WAY TO GO BUDDY!!!! IT’S ONLY 4:30 AND WE HAVE ONLY 25 MILES TO GO FROM HERE!!!!!

Toby: YEP!!!! WE’LL BE IN TOCOMA IN NO TIME!!!!!

Rami: Once we’re there, lets try to see if we can find a way to save our friend.

Herbie replays a message from Mr. Prindle and Burt on his radio…………………….

Mr. Prindle: Okay, once we arrive at Port in Eatonville, we load the prisoners onto a train that’ll take em to Tocoma, but the train won’t go that far………….

Burt: Doesn’t it terminate at a small camp in the mountain range?

Mr. Prindle: Exactly!!!! At which point, we’ll have the rest of our team take em to each of the Koopalings. Do you remember who goes where? Ren left that up to you?

Burt: I forgot, but here’s what I’m thinking………………play Russian Roulette to decide who goes where, except for the 2 Royal Princesses………………They go straight to King Drago and Queen Xayide’s Castle because they’re our biggest threat since they’re of nobility……………….the rest are all worthless commoners who only took part with em, so we’ll give em to the Koopalings except for one. Remember one of them guards a treasure, and giving a prisoner to the one the guards the treasure would be BAD because that prisoner could use the treasure to his/her advantage and break out with it!!!

Mr. Prindle: That makes sense................
There was one girl that Ren wanted to go straight to King Drago and Queen Xayide’s Castle, but I forgot which one it was. However I think this works better and makes more sense!!!!
Alright Burt, we’re sticking to this new plan, and once we’re at the camp in the mountain range, we’ll play your game of Russian Roulette to decide which Koopaling gets which prisoner.
And if anyone tries to thwart our plans, King Helmaroc The Demon Bird will take care of em at the top of Ludwig Von Koopa’s Castle Tower!!!!!

Burt: PERFECT!!!!

The recording then ends.

Rami: If we could go to the Camp site to stop em, we would………….

Toby: But we’d be outnumbered……………..

Herbie: Beep, Beep!!!

Rami: Our best bet is to go straight to Tocoma and come up with a plan once we arrive there.

Toby: We will need to find a hotel……………

Rami: There is a good place that’s up to our standards………………

Toby gets out his Ipad and instantly finds it………..

Toby: HERE IT IS!!!! It’s the Tocoma Harraseeket Inn!!!! A beautiful 4 star hotel with all the modern accommodations found in Grand Bay Lake!!!!!

Rami: Overlooks the mountains along with beautiful valleys and trees…………….

Toby: Just been redone, and the rooms have just been fully renovated……………

Rami: It’s not that big of a hotel, but it’s the best one in Tocoma, so lets see if we can get any luck at scoring a room there……………..

Herbie then continues driving on as he makes his way through the mountain passes leading to Tocoma.
Meanwhile, our train steams its way over bridges, and into various tunnels as it braves the heavy snowstorms.
The thick and heavy snow caused Raton’s wheels to slip and make her fire burn fiercely. Sometimes the icy rails would cause Raton’s wheels to slip so bad that she would come close to stalling on some of the gradients.
Each time Raton’s wheels would slip, Cam would shut her throttle, notch the Johnson Bar Reverser back down to the first notch all the way back, and pull madly on the sanding handle before gently bumping the throttle back open.

Cam: FLYIN FUCKEN SHIT!!!!!

Princess Erika: CAMARO; LANGUAGE?????!!!!!!!! -_-

Jim West: THIS SNOW IS NO JOKE!!!!

Artemus Gordon: IT’S THE ICE ON THE RAILS THAT’S CAUSING THE PROBLEM!!!!

Cam: AND THE PROBLEM IS THAT DUE TO THE LOCATION OF THE SAND DOME, I’M ONLY GETTING SAND DOWN TO THE VERY FROND DRIVE WHEELS AND THAT’S IT!!!!!! IF WE WERE GOING FORWARDS, THE SAND WOULD BE GOING TOWARDS THE 4 REAR DRIVE WHEELS WHERE MOST OF THE LOCOMOTIVE’S WEIGHT IS!!!!!

Raton’s wheels kept slipping fiercely on the icy rails.

Cam: GOD DAMN IT!!!!!!!!!

Princess Erika: AGAIN, LANGUAGE??????!!!!!!!! -_-

Cam: SORRY, BUT YOU WOULDN’T BE SO HAPPY IF YOUR TRAIN WAS CLOSE TO STALLING!!!!!

After much wheel slip, Raton slowly backed around a bend, and had finally crested the nasty 2% percent grade. It was now a gentle down hill coast through the Tundra down to Eatonville.

Cam: FINALLY!!!!!! THE GRADIENTS ARE BEHIND US UNTIL WE GET OUT OF EATONVILLE!!!!!

Artemus Gordon: And there’s not a lot of snow on the other side of Eatonville, so we should be good.

Jim West: It’s also nowhere near as cold either!!!!

Princess Erika: THANK GOD!!!!!

Cam: My thought’s exactly!!!!

Raton soon gently coasts straight into a tunnel as she continues coasting down hill to Eatonville.
Meanwhile on board the RLS Legacy, Eatonville finally comes into view.

Captain Blue Beard: LAND HO!!!!!!!!!

Mr. Prindle: Alright Burt, did you call for the train????!!!!

Burt: It should be waiting for us at the loading dock once we arrive!!!!

Mr. Prindle: Good!!!! This is where we part ways with that idiot Blue Beard, so we can get to the base camp up in the mountains, and play our game of roulette to determine who goes where!!!!

Burt: Sounds like a plan!!!!

Mr. Prindle: Also you look ridiculous in that dress Burt!!!! What happened????!!!!!

Burt: It’s A LONG story and I don’t have a spare pair of pants with me!!!!

As the RLS Legacy comes into dock, a narrow gauge 45-Ton General Electric Center Cab outside frame Side Rod Diesel locomotive comes oiling in with a string of wooden boxcars in tow.
They were old and filthy with rotting wood, and looked like they hadn’t seen use in a long time. The Diesel locomotive looked no better for most of its red paint had either pealed off or was covered in dirty Diesel soot. The engine was banging unusually loud, the gears were making a horrible grinding noise, and the horn sounded so awful that it couldn’t be used.

Blue Beard: ARRRRGGGGG!!!!!! THERE BE THE TRAIN ME HEARTIES!!!!! NOW GET THE PRISONERS OFF MY BOAT!!!!! THEY’VE CAUSED ME AND MY CREW ENOUGH TROUBLE ALREADY!!!!!!

Mr. Prindle: YOU GOT IT!!!!!

One by one all of our friends were walked off the RLS Legacy with their hands tied in front of them as they made their way towards the train…………….both Wendy and Chelia were trembling very badly with fear………….

Wendy: Carla……………….I’m scared………………….

Chelia: I don’t want to think about what’s to happen to us………………….

Troy: Hey, it’ll be fine…………………we’ll make it through this some how…………….

When Carla saw the inside of the train cars she could not believe her eyes.

Carla: WHAT????!!!!!!! YOU EXPECT US TO RIDE IN THESE THINGS!!!!!! THERE IS NO WAY!!!!!! THEY ARE FILTHY!!!!!! I WILL NOT ALLOW WENDY, CHELIA, OR ANYONE ELSE TO BE TAKEN PRISON IN SUCH FILTH!!!!!!

But it was no use.

Mr. Prindle: Guards, shut her up!!!!!!

Mr. Prindle’s workmen soon place a bag over Carla while in her cat form, and tie a rope at the opening so she couldn’t escape before throwing her into the boxcar.

Wendy: CARLA, NO!!!!

Carla: GET ME OUT OF HERE!!!!! HOW DARE YOU CAPTURE ME IN A BAG!!!!!!! GET ME OUT OF HERE!!!!!! YOU WILL REGRET THIS!!!!!

Burt: GOOD!!!!! That takes care of that!!!! Now load the rest of em in!!!!

One by one the rest of our friends are soon loaded into the box cars, except the guards Poe, Finn, Helmsley and Ramsley.

Blue Beard: ARRRGGG!!!!! I WILL BE NEEDING THESE 4!!!!! THEY SHALL MAKE GREAT CABIN BOYS!!!!!! NOW YOU 4 GET TO WORK AND START LOADING UP SOME BOOTY HERE!!!!! WE SET SAIL BACK FOR THE UNDER WATER KINGDOM OF CASTAWAY SOON!!!!!

Both Ramsley and Helmsley’s heart sank after hearing Captain Blue Beard’s plans thinking that they were to attack their own home and take their princess as another hostage.

Ramsley: Oh no!!!!

Helmsley: Oh no is right!!!!

Poe: THAT’S YOUR HOME HE WANTS TO ATTACK!!!!

Finn: THAT’S BULLSHIT MAN!!!!

Ramsley: Next he’ll want to take Princess Erika Hostage too!!!!!

Helmsley: That’s most likely Ren’s plan!!!!!

Captain Blue Beard: QUIT SLACKIN OFF YOU BOYS!!!! GET TO WORK AND FIND ME SOME BOOTY!!!!!

Unbeknownst to them Princess Erika was safe and well with her big brother Cam and their new friends Jim West and Artemus Gordon onboard their engine the Raton, which was now coasting its way down into Eatonville.
With the snow storms now passed, Cam is able to reopen the cab curtains, windows, and front doors. As Cam leaned out the side of the cab to see where his train was going, Eatonville was finally coming into view.

Cam: THERE IT IS!!!!

Jim West: ALRIGHT!!!!! EATONVILLE AT LAST!!!!

Artemus Gordon: AWESOME!!!!! I SHALL CONTINUE MY INSPECTION ON THESE THINGS AS I CONTINUE MORE WORK ON THE CANNON!!!!!

Cam: ALRIGHTY!!!!!

Artemus Gordon then makes his way back to the flat car to continue more work on the cannon.

Princess Erika: He will give us our things back, right????!!!!

Jim West: Rest assured, he’s an inventor, and is no doubt working wonders with that cannon. It’ll no doubt come in handy with our fight against General Ren…………..

Cam: Good point, and we’ll need all the ammunition we can get.

Princess Erika: Hey Cam, I’m starting to get hot again, so I don’t need your jacket anymore, but thank you so much for letting me borrow it.

Cam: Of course!!!!

Princess Erika: Also would you mind helping me take my cardigan back off?

Cam: No problem!!!!

Cam helps Princess Erika remove his jacket from her along with her Cardigan before she gets out her item storage gun, and puts away her pink cardigan.

Princess Erika: That’s MUCH better now!!!!!

Cam: It sure is getting warmer, so I’m just fine without the jacket!!!!!

Jim West: I’m gonna get some fresh air, and stand out on the tender!!!!!

Cam: Go right ahead!!!!

Jim West exits Raton’s cab and walks out onto the tender decking. He then climbs up the small sand box in front of the tender tank, climbs over the fake coal load and makes his way over to the rear of the tender to get some fresh air.

Jim West: Now this is better!!!!!

Princess Erika: How are you able to manage this heat????!!!!!

Cam: You get used to it after a while, but if you think it’s hot now; it’s HELL when having to run these in 3 digit weather!!!!!

Princess Erika: I can’t even imagine!!!! Hey do you mind if I join our friend Jim West because I’d like to get some fresh air too, if that’s alright????!!!!!

Cam: No problem, but if Jim West comes back, so should you!!! Also put your cardigan back on, it’s colder out there and you might catch cold!!!!

Princess Erika: Awwwwwwwwww?????!!!!!! Do I have to????!!!!! -_-

Cam: Don’t argue with me young lady!!!!

Princess Erika: UUUUUGGGGGGHHHHH!!!!!! -_-

Princess Erika rolled her eyes as she got her cardigan back out of her item storage and put it back on.

Cam: That’s a good girl!!!! Now remember, if he comes back, so should you because I don’t want you out there alone.

Princes: Okay, I get it!!!! -_-

Princess Erika then exits the cab, climbs on top of the tender tank and joins Jim West out by the water filler.

Jim West: Wanting a little fresh air too I see?

Princess Erika: Yeah, but he made me put my cardigan back on……………..UGH!!!!

Jim West: He just doesn’t want you to catch cold since it’s A LOT cooler out here………

Princess Erika: I know, but he’s being a little too over protective…………..

Jim West: Only because he loves you, and you’ll thank him for that.

Princess Erika: I guess your right.

Artemus Gordon continues experimenting with the cannon. He had removed some particles from both the swimsuit, as well as the spare lifting injector ram valve, and was done using em now that he had what he needed.

Artemus Gordon: HEY, YOUNG LADY, YOU CAN TAKE THIS BACK!!!!

Princess Erika: THANK YOU!!!!

Princess Erika then gets out her item storage gun, and puts the top and skirt from her wet blue swimsuit back in her item storage, and takes the spare lifting injector ram valve and holds onto it for Cam.

Artemus Gordon: I think I can really make something more of this cannon than what it is.

Princess Erika: THAT’S GREAT!!!!

Jim West: IT’S LOOKING GOOD SO FAR!!!!

Less than 2 and a half miles away in Eatonville, the last of our friends was loaded up on the enemy train.

Burt: Hashimoto, be sure to keep an eye on em!!!!!

With Hashimoto being the last to board the boxcar, the last door banged, and all the boxcars were locked and loaded ready to go.

Mr. Prindle: ALRIGHT!!!!! THAT’S IT!!!!

Burt and Mr. Prindle make their way to the back of the train and hop in the caboose as the engineer of the Old Center Cab Diesel activates the bell, releases the brakes, and eases the throttle open before the train rolls out of Eatonville.
Sadly Poe, Finn, Ramsley, and Helmsley helplessly watch their friends being taken away to an unknown location while they stay behind.

Poe: Now what do we do?

Finn: This is Bullshit…………..

Ramsley: Our poor little princess is next…………….

Helmsley: It’s hopeless…………………..

Blue Beard: ARRRGGGG!!!!!!! WHAT ARE YE DOING STANDIN AROUND MOPING!!!!!!! GET SOME MORE BOOTY, AND LOAD IT ONTO ME SHIP!!!! WE DON’T GOT ALL DAY NOW!!!!!!

As Raton and her train coast their way downhill, the RLS Legacy also comes into view.

Cam: THERE IT IS!!!!!!

Jim West: HOLY SHIT!!!!! CAPTAIN BLUE BEARD!!!!!!

Princess Erika: THOSE ARE THE PIRATES THAT ALMOST KILLED CAM!!!!!

Artemus Gordon: WE’VE BEEN TRYING TO ARREST THAT SON OF A BITCH SINCE THE DAWN OF TIME!!!!! HOWEVER…………………

Jim West: IS THERE ANYWAY WE CAN SHOOT THAT THING WITH OUR CANNON????!!!!!

Artemus Gordon: I WAS JUST GONNA DO THAT BECAUSE I WANT TO SEE WHAT THIS THING CAN REALLY DO NOW THAT I’VE RIGGED IT!!!!!!

Artemus Gordon activates the cannon before loading it up with liquid nitro. Using it’s amazing rotation abilities, he gets the cannon into position, and with the use of the telescope gets the ship in firing range.

Artemus Gordon: ALRIGHT, I THINK I GOT IT!!!!!!!
HERE GOES NOTHING!!!!!!

Artemus Gordon then fires the cannon.

Captain Blue Beard: ARRRRRGGGG!!!!!!! PICK UP THE SLACK BOYS!!!!!! WE NEED MORE BOOTY BEFORE…………………………..

BANG!!!!!!!!!!!!!

The cannon from Raton’s train makes a direct hit on the RLS Legacy, takes the pirate crews by surprise, and makes some VERY HEAVY AND SERIOUS damage.

Captain Blue Beard: ARRRRRRRGGGGGG!!!!!!!! WHAT WAS THAT?????!!!!!!!! ME SHIP’S TAKEN DAMAGE!!!!!!!

Poe: THAT CAME OUT OF NOWHERE!!!!!!!

Artemus Gordon: YES!!!!!! A DIRECT HIT!!!!!! NOW I’LL GIVE IT A FEW MORE TRIES!!!!!

Artemus Gordon aims the cannon a little lower and fires again.

BANG………………………BANG……………………………….BANG!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!

3 direct hits smash into the side of the RLS Legacy’s hull causing it to sink.

Blue Beard: WHAT THE?????!!!!!!!!! ME SHIP; IT’S SINKING!!!!!!

With one final blast from the cannon………………………

KABOOM!!!!!!!!!!!

The ship’s diesel engine’s are shot causing a MASSIVE explosion in the hull breaking the ship in half as it sinks.

Blue Beard: AAAAARRRRRRRRRRRRRRRRRRRRRRRRRGGGGGGGGGGGGGGGGGGG!!!!!!!!!!!

Captain Blue Beard and his pirates are soon in icy cold water as Raton steams her way into Eatonville.

Poe: AWESOME!!!!!!

Finn: ALRIGHT!!!!!!!

Ramsley: THERE’S STILL HOPE AFTER ALL!!!!!

On the enemy train where our friends are being held prisoner, Mr. Prindle and Burt hear the loud banging, and when they look back they see black smoke coming out of the water with no sign of the RLS Legacy in site.

Mr. Prindle: OH SHIT!!!!!!

Burt: THE RLS LEGACY!!!!!

Mr. Prindle: SOMEONE HAS SUNK IT!!!!!!

Burt: WE GOTTA GET THIS TRAIN MOVING EVEN FASTER OR ELSE……………

Mr. Prindle: REN WILL NOT BE HAPPY!!!!!

Burt gets on the train’s radio and orders the engineer to move faster.

Burt: TAKE THAT THING UP AS FAST AS IT’LL GO!!!!!

With one train taking off, the other train steams into Eatonville’s dock yard as Cam gives one long blast on Raton’s whistle followed by a short blast with a………………

WHOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOO, WHOOOO!!!!!!!

With her bell ringing, firebox roaring and drumming, cylinder drain cocks hissing, low pressure safety valve popping off, and rods knocking, while coming in backwards.
Poe, Finn, Ramsley, and Helmsley notice the cannon, and are soon shocked to see our friends aboard Raton’s train.

Poe: SO THAT’S WHAT TOOK OUT THAT SHIP!!!!!

Finn: HOLY SHIT, IT’S CAM!!!!!!

Ramsley: AND PRINCESS ERIKA!!!!!

Cam: PERFECT!!!!! I see both a water and fuel hose, so we can take on fuel and water here!!!!

Jim West: I’ll take care of arresting those pirates!!!!!

Artemus Gordon: Me too!!!!!

Cam gently shuts Raton’s throttle before gently applying the brakes, and throwing the Johnson Bar forward bringing her train to a full and complete stop.
Jim West and Artemus Gordon soon scramble off the train and set to work on arresting Blue Beard and the pirates.

Jim West: CAPTAIN BLUE BEARD.................

Artemus Gordon: YOU AND YOUR PIRATES ARE UNDER ARREST!!!!!

Blue Beard: ARRRRRRRRRGGGGGGG!!!!!!!!!

Cam: GUYS; leave him in the water!!!!! It serves him right!!!!

Princess Erika: He almost killed Cam, so leave him there for a little longer!!!!

Ramsley and Helmsley were thrilled to see Princess Erika, and princess Erika was thrilled to see them.

Ramsley: PRINCESS ERIKA!!!!!

Princess Erika: RAMSLEY……………….HELMSLEY!!!!!!!!

Princess Erika scrambled off Raton, and gave her royal guards a big hug.

Helmsley: THANK GOODNESS YOU’RE ALRIGHT!!!!!

Princess Erika: THANK GOD YOU’RE OKAY TOO!!!!! I WAS WORRIED ABOUT YOU AFTER I SAW YOU GUYS CAPTURED!!!!!!

Poe: Captain Blue Beard made us stay behind so he could have us join his crew!!!!

Finn: They were planning to attack our home and capture you!!!!!

Ramsley then sees the cannon and puts 2 and 2 together.

Ramsley: Looks like you guys bought our army some time because now Blue Beard doesn’t have a ship and will be going to jail!!!!

As Cam leaves Raton’s cab to get the water and fuel hoses, he notices Rami’s Ford Shelby Mustang Cobra and Toby’s Koenigsegg Agera floating in the water.

Cam: Better get those!!!!!

Using his item storage gun, Cam retrieves the cars, and puts them in his item storage for safe keeping.

Blue Beard: AAARRRRRRRRRRGGGGGGGGG!!!!!!!! NOOOOOOO NOT ME BOOTY!!!!!
WHAT??????!!!!!!! YE WHO CUT OFF ME BEARD AGAIN??????!!!!!! HOW DID YE SURVIVE WALKING THE PLANK????!!!!!

Cam: You almost got me good that time, but luckily my little sister Princess Erika was right on my tail to help me out. Therefor it’ll take more than swimming with Davy Jones in icy waters to kill me!!!!

Artemus Gordon throws electric hand cuffs at Blue Beard and his pirates, and one by one each set of hand cuffs locks on.

Cam: Also, it’s not nice to steal what’s not yours, so I’ll be returning these cars right where they belong……………

Cam then notices that Herbie’s not in the rubble, which meant one thing……………….

Cam: That’s weird………………

Poe: What is it?

Cam: I retrieved the Agera and the Mustang, but I see no sign of Herbie…………….

Finn: OH, your car got away!!!!!!

Ramsley: He escaped alright, along with 2 new recruits that turned out to be our friends Rami and Toby.

Cam: Knowing them, they’re probably on their way to Tocoma now!!!!!

Poe: By the way, it’s good to see that you’re still okay Cam!!!!!

Finn: Yeah, we thought you were a goner!!!!!

Cam: My little sister Princess Erika saved my life, and I can’t thank her enough.

Princess Erika: It was nothing!!!! *Giggles* He's my big brother after all, and I love him with all my heart!!!! *Giggles*

Ramsley: WOW!!!!! You sure have come a long ways my lady!!!!

Helmsley: And we’re glad to see that you’re safe and sound, but how did you know to come out here????!!!!

Princess Erika: When I saw that Grand Bay Lake had been invaded, I knew something was not right!!!! I’m just glad I was able to make it to Cam in time otherwise he wouldn’t be here, and it breaks my heart to think that I almost lost him………………especially now that I know the real truth about where I come from………...................

Ramsley: You mean?

Princess Erika: I know I’m from the real world, and both Cam and Troy are my big brothers……………………my memories of them were erased, but my strong feelings of love for Cam stayed with me in my heart, which is why I’ve always known he was special to me…………………….
As for the train in the palace atrium........................it was a gift to me from him in the real world, which is why I'm so attached to it...............

Helmsley: I’m glad you finally know!!!!

Ramsley: Now we’d like to know who are those 2 strangers?

Princess Erika: They’re not strangers anymore, they’re our friends!!!

Cam: They’re with the Magic Kingdom Police Force, and their names are………..

Jim West: Captain Jim West!!!!

Artemus Gordon: And Sargent Artemus Gordon!!!!!

Princess Erika: We figured they’d be of help to us in order to defeat King Drago and Queen Xayide!!!!

More police officers show up, and one by one each of em takes Captain Blue Beard and his pirates away.

Blue Beard: AAAARRRRRRRRRRRRRRRRGGGGGGGGGG!!!!!!!

Jim West: Lets see how mean he is in a jail cell!!!!

Artemus Gordon: He’s gonna be in solitary confinement for a LOOOOOOOONNNGGGGG TIME!!!!!

Princess Erika: Serves him right!!!!!

Cam: Now our plan is to take on more fuel and water before we finish our trip to Tocoma. If my senses are correct, Herbie’s waiting for us along with Rami and Toby.
Once there, we can all regroup and come up with a plan to save the rest of our friends…………………

Mean while, 30 miles north, our friend Herbie finally arrives in downtown Tocoma.

Rami: ALRIGHT!!!!! Here we are!!!!

Toby: Now lets get to the hotel.

However, Rami receives a phone call on his Ipad, and who should call him but Cam?

Rami: HEY BUDDY!!!! GLAD TO SEE YOU’RE STILL ALIVE!!!!

Cam: IT’S A LONG STORY!!!!! I’M GLAD TO SEE YOU GUYS ARE OKAY IN HERBIE!!!!!

Herbie: BEEEEEEEEEP, BEEEEEEEEEEEP, BEEEEEEEEEEEP, BEEEEEEEEEEEEEEP, BEEEEEEEEEEEEEEP, BEEEEEEEEP, BEEEEEEEP, BEEEEEEEEP!!!!!!

Toby: YOUR CAR SOUNDS HAPPY TO KNOW THAT YOU’RE OKAY, AND SO ARE WE!!!!!!!!

Cam: AND I’M THRILLED YOU GUYS ARE SAFE TOO!!!!! WHAT’S YOUR LOCATION?

Rami: We just arrived in Tocoma and we’re making our way to…………

Toby: The Tocoma Harraseeket Inn.

Cam: Perfect!!!!!!

Princess Erika: Our train is taking on fuel and water, but we should be on our way again soon!!!!!

Rami: Sounds good!!!!

Princess Erika: Wait for us at the hotel; we’ll be there as soon as we can!!!!

Cam: Once we arrive let’s regroup and come up with a plan to save the rest of our frineds!!!!

Princess Erika: RIGHT!!!!


To Be Continued………………….

Chapter 31

The Locomotive Chase

With the locomotive now refueled, re-oiled, and water level topped off, Cam and his friends were now ready to get back underway.

Cam: ALRIGHT!!!!  WE’RE GOOD TO GO!!!!!

Jim West: ALL ABOARD!!!!!

With the bell ringing Cam then tugs hard on the whistle chord with 3 long whistle blasts before opening up the cylinder drain cocks and gently bumping the throttle back open, and The Raton was rolling once again.

Jim West, Artemus Gordon, and Helmsley were riding on the flat car with the cannon while Ramsley and Princess Erika were riding a top of the tender tank by the water filler, as Poe was riding on the tender decking outside the cab, and Finn was riding in the fireman’s seat on the left hand side in the cab.
Raton was soon thundering down the track with her speed cruising at a good 38 miles an hour.
Finn couldn’t believe his eyes as he watched the locomotive practically fire itself.

Finn: Hey man, this is crazy!!!!  I practically have nothing to do here!!!!

Cam: Just relax!!!!  The engine’s computer is programed to handle the difficult job of firing the locomotive.  All you gotta do is ring the bell if you’d like, but even that is programmed into the computer.

Finn: DAMN!!!!!  That’s sick!!!!!

Poe: The other train that has our friends prisoner may not be that far ahead of us, so we might be able to catch em.

Finn: Do you think that’s possible???!!!!  They’re probably a LONG ways ahead!!!!!

Cam: It’s worth a shot!!!!  This single chime whistle can cause quite an echo when in the right places, so I’ll whistle every now and throughout the canyons so the train ahead of us knows we’re in pursuit.

Poe: Sounds good!!!!

Finn: Works for me!!!!!

However the train further up ahead 5 miles away struck a piece of dumb luck.  The 2 front axles on rear truck of the locomotive had derailed and hit the ground.
Burt and Mr. Prindle were NOT happy about this at all.

Train Engineer: Sorry sir, but with so much dirty and gravel on the track, our engine is now on the ground.  It could take some time before we’re back underway.

Mr. Prindle: ON THE GROUND????!!!!!

Burt: WHAT DO YOU MEAN ON THE GROUND???!!!!!

Train Engineer: WE’VE DERAILED SIR!!!!!  IT COULD TAKE US AN HOUR TO BE BACK ON THE TRACKS AND UNDERWAY AGAIN!!!!!

Mr. Prindle: OH SHIT; JUST WHAT WE NEED!!!!

Burt: Ren will not be happy to hear about us being late once the job is done!!!!!

Train Engineer: HEY YOU, PASS ME THAT FROG SO WE CAN RERAIL THIS THING!!!!!

Brakeman: YES SIR!!!!!

As the train’s engineer and brakeman attempt to get the derailed Diesel locomotive back on the track, a loud and unfamiliar whistle is heard far off in the distance.

https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=-SG_0Yo8MGk

WHOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOO!!!!!!!

Burt: UH-OH!!!!!!!

Train Engineer: WHAT THE HECK??????!!!!!!

Mr. Prindle: IT MUST BE AN EXPRESS TRAIN!!!!!

Brakeman: NOPE, WE’RE THE ONLY TRAIN ON THE TRACK AT THIS TIME!!!!!  NO TRAINS ARE SCHEDULED TO RUN UNTIL NIGHT FALL, AND THAT’S FROM TOCOMA DOWN TO EATONVILLE!!!!!

Train Engineer: AND THAT’S OLD MITCH AND THE GLENNBROOKE LOCOMOTIVE!!!!  

The train’s whistle is then heard again…………………

WHOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOO!!!!!!!!!!

Burt: If this is an unscheduled train, shall we wreck it????!!!!

Mr. Prindle: THEY MIGHT WRECK US, THEY WOULDN’T BLOWING THEIR WHISTLE LIKE THAT WITHOUT A FORCE ON BOARD!!!!!!

Burt: YOU GUYS GET THIS THING BACK ON THE TRACKS!!!!!!

In the boxcar our friends have no idea why they were stopped and what on what was going on.

Wendy: Carla, it seems that we stopped.

Carla: It doesn’t really help us unfortunately since we’re all tied up.

Then………………..the blasts of the steam whistle are heard again, except even louder.  In fact the blasts of the steam whistle were so loud that our friends could hear it from inside the boxcar.

WHOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOO, WHOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOO!!!!!!!!!!!!

Chelia: I hear something!!!!!!

Troy: Sounds like there’s another train on the track!!!!!

Nina: That doesn’t sound good!!!!

Ayumi: And it sounds like it’s getting closer!!!!!

Troy: If I remember correctly, Cam says it takes a WHOPPING mile and a half to stop a fully loaded train at full speed due to all the heavy weight of all the kinetic energy.

Manaka: That sounds bad!!!!!

Troy: If we’re around a blind corner then it is……………..

Carla: That is not something I wanna know right now!!!!

Johnny 5: It sounds like that whistle coming off a replica of a Narrow Gauge Baldwin Locomotive Works Class 8-18D 2-6-0 Mogul off the Denver & Rio Grande as their Number #15 named Raton, and dates back to 1875.  However, unlike the original, this replica engine is a fairly new build from October 2016.  It uses a full welded steel boiler, heavy cast iron and steel steam cylinder engines, molted steel wheels, heavy spruce wood cab, stainless steel tender tank, high-pressure low-flow air-rated lifting injectors, crosshead feed water pumps on both sides, relies on an automated firing system, and burns bio-diesel.
Where as the original Raton from 1875 used a wrought iron boiler, cast iron steam cylinder engines, walnut wood cab, cast iron wheels, plated iron tender tank, and relied on the dual cross head feed water pumps since lifting injectors weren’t yet around.  It also burned coal, and was a MUCH dirtier machine, nowhere NEAR as safe given that you didn’t know how tight the seams were on the iron boiler until it blew up, and due to the lack of lifting injectors, cold water was constantly being pumped into the boiler causing boiler pressure to decrease A LOT.

Sayu: Thank you for the info……………………like it does us any good……………..

Miuna: I’d hate to say it but she’s right……………

Wendy: How do you know all that when you’re locked inside a crate???!!!!

Johnny 5: No idea, I just got some of the data as if by magic.

Mr. Prindle: COME ON, COME ON, COME ON!!!!!

Burt: GET THIS THING BACK ON THE RAILS!!!!!

WHOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOO, WHOOOOOOOOOOO!!!!!!

Only 2 miles away, the Raton’s whistle was getting louder and louder as she steamed closer and closer to the stranded train.

Train Engineer: I THINK I GOT IT!!!!!

Brakeman: ME TOO!!!!!!

Train Engineer: LET ME KNOW HOW IT GOES, I’M GONNA TRY MOVING FORWARD!!!!!

The train’s engineer jumps back into the cab, releases the brakes, slowly eases the throttle open, and the derailed locomotive slowly but surely eases its derailed wheels back onto the track.

Brakeman: ALRIGHT!!!!  WE’RE BACK ON THE RAILS!!!!

Burt: GOOD, NOW GET THIS THING OUT OF HERE!!!!

The Brakeman climbs back onto the train as Burt and Mr. Prindle scramble back into the caboose.  
However, the Raton was getting closer and closer as her whistle blasts were getting louder and louder with a……………….

WHOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOO, WHOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOO!!!!!!   WHOOOOOOOOOOO, WHOOOOOOOO!!!!!!!!!  WHOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOO!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!

Mr. Prindle: SHIT!!!!!!!  THAT THING IS GETTING CLOSER!!!!!!!

Burt: WE’VE GOT NO CHOICE!!!!!  WE MUST DETATCH THE CABOOSE AND TRY TO WRECK THAT OTHER TRAIN!!!!!

Mr. Prindle: YOU’RE RIGHT!!!!!

As their train got moving, Burt and Mr. Prindle scrambled out of their caboose, pulled up on the coupler lift bar, and jumped onto the grab rails of the box car in front of them as the caboose went rolling down the track towards Raton and her train.
As Raton was steaming harder and faster as it thundered down the tracks, Artemus Gordon and Jim West notice something coming straight towards them.

Artemus Gordon: JIM, THEY KNOW WE’RE ON TO THEM!!!!

Jim West: HOLD SHIT!!!!!  GORDON THAT CABOOSE IS HEADING STRAIGHT FOR US!!!!!

And it was!!!  That caboose was picking up speed and was rolling faster and faster as it barreled its way towards Raton and her train.
There was only one thing to do that could save their train from an accident.

Artemus Gordon: TELL CAMARO TO REVERSE!!!!!

Helmsley: REVERSE!!!!!!!!

Poe: REVERSE!!!!!

Cam sees the caboose barreling towards his train, and instantly throws Raton’s Johnson Bar/Reverser forward causing her wheels to spin fiercely as they tried to grip the rails.
Cam then shut the throttle, pulled on the sanding handle, and gently bumped the throttle back open causing Raton to properly grip the rails and slowly move forward.
By doing this he was able to avoid disaster as the caboose gently bumped up and coupled onto his train.

Finn: ALRIGHT, MOVE US FORWARD AGAIN!!!!!

Cam: GOT IT!!!!!

Cam shut Raton’s throttle, threw the Johnson Bar/Reverser back into reverser, gently bumped the throttle back open, and got Raton moving in reverse once again.

Cam: ALRIGHT!!!!!  I GOT IT!!!!!

Princess Erika: AWESOME SAVE CAM!!!!!

Cam: A LITTLE TOO CLOSE FOR COMFORT!!!!

Artemus Gordon gets out his item storage gun, and puts the caboose in his item storage.

Artemus Gordon: ALRIGHT!!!!  THAT TAKES CARE OF THAT!!!!!

Jim West: IS THAT THE BEST THEY CAN DO?????!!!!!!

Ramsley: MY THOUGHT IS THEY DON’T WANT ANY FATALITIES ON THEIR TRAIN BECAUSE THEY’LL LOSE THEIR HOSTAGES THAT WAY!!!!!

Helmsley: WITHOUT HOSTAGES, THEY’RE IN BIG TROUBLE!!!!

Cam: MAYBE OUR BEST BET IS TO GRAB THAT THING BY THE TAIL AND TOW IT BACKWARDS!!!!!

Artemus Gordon: BUT SIR THAT CAN DESTROY IF NOT SEVERELY DAMAGE OUR ENGINE!!!!!!

Cam: BUT IF IT DOESN’T IT’LL INCOMPASITATE THEIR ENGINE!!!!!  IT’S POWER VS. POWER!!!!!  DO WE KNOW WHAT KIND OF ENGINE THEY’RE USING????!!!!!

Poe: IT LOOKED LIKE A TYPE OF DIESEL LOCOMOTIVE!!!!!

Cam: IF A STEAM ENGINE TOWS AGAINST A DIESEL OF A SIMILAR WEIGHT CLASS, THEN THE STEAM ENGINE HAS A HIGHER CHANCE OF HOLDING TOGETHER THAN THE DIESEL!!!!

Burt and Mr. Prindle climb into one of the boxcars, and low and behold the boxcar they climb into is full of spare railroad ties and planks of wood.

Mr. Prindle: ALRIGHT!!!!  We can knock holes in the walls, and build a walkway until we get to the front of the train.  This way we can move the prisoners to the front car if we have to!!!!

Burt: Sounds good!!!!

Burt and Mr. Prindle pick a railroad tie and smash it through the front wall of their boxcar.  Once that’s complete, they smash through the rear wall of the next boxcar, and lay down a wooden plank between the 2 boxcars, and make their way forward.
They repeat this process until they reach the prisoners in car number 3 from the engine.
Then they hear something familiar……………

WHOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOO!!!!!!!!!!   WHOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOO!!!!!!!!!!!

Burt: GOD DAMN IT!!!!!  IT’S THAT TRAIN!!!!!!

Then……………………..

BANG…………………………….BANG!!!!!!!!!!!!

Warning shots were fired from Raton’s cannon causing dirt and gravel to fall near tracks.

Burt: OH SHIT!!!!!  THEY’VE GOT A CANNON TOO!!!!!

Mr. Prindle: THEY MUST HAVE BEEN THE ONES WHO SANK BLUE BEARDS SHIP!!!!!!

All of our imprisoned friends were shocked when they heard about Captain Blue Beard’s ship being sunk.

Troy: THAT IS NO EXPRESS TRAIN ON OUR TAIL; THAT IS HELP!!!!!

Carla: YOU DON’T THINK??????!!!!!!!

Troy: AND THERE IS ONLY ONE PERSON WHO I KNOW THAT WOULD HELP US WHO KNOWS HOW TO OPERATE A STEAM TRAIN!!!!!!

Carla: YOU WOULDN’T THINK THAT WOULD BE????!!!!!

Troy: I BET YOU TOP DOLLAR THAT CAM SURVIVED AND IS AT THE HEAD OF THE LOCOMOTIVE THAT’S ON OUR TAIL!!!!!

Burt: SHIT!!!!  I SEE THE PLUME OF SMOKE COMING OUT OF THE STACK OF THE TRAIN BEHIND US!!!!

Johnny 5: TOLD YA IT WAS A STEAM ENGINE!!!!!

Mr. Prindle: BURT, YOU GO MOVE THE PRISONERS I’LL TRY TO STALL THE TRAIN BEHIND US!!!!

Burt: YOU GOT IT!!!!!  YOU HEARD HIM HASHIMOTO, LET’S SMASH MORE HOLES IN THE WALLS OF THE BOXCARS AND MOVE THESE PRISONERS UP TO THE FRONT OF THE TRAIN!!!!

Cam: DID WE HIT????!!!!!

Artemus Gordon: NO!!!!!  THOSE WERE ONLY WARNING SHOTS!!!!!

Cam: WE GOTTA MOVE CLOSER!!!!!  I’LL GIVE THIS THING EVERYTHING SHE’S GOT!!!!!

Cam notches up the Johnson Bar/Reverser closer to the center, and opens up the throttle until it’s almost wide open causing Raton’s speed to climb up to 44 miles an hour.
Cam continues blowing long and hard on the whistle chord with a……………

WHOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOO!!!!!!!  WHOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOO!!!!!!!!  WHOOOOOO, WHOOOOOO!!!!!!!!  WHOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOO!!!!!!!!!!

Mr. Prindle: GOD DAMN IT, THAT SON OF A BITCH HEADING STRAIGHT AT US!!!!!

Wasting no time, Mr. Prindle throws ties out of the last box car, but they all land in the middle of the tracks between the rails.

Mr. Prindle: GOD DAMN IT!!!!!

Mr. Prindle throws down one more tie onto the track.

Mr. Prindle: YES!!!!!!!

Cam: UH-OH!!!!!

Jim West: OH SHIT!!!!!

Ramsley: UNCOUPLE THE CAR!!!!!

Artemus Gordon: SAVE THE CANNON!!!!!

Jim West and Ramsley jump off the flat car and climb their way back onto Raton’s tender as Cam slams on the brakes, shuts the throttle, and throws the Johnson Bar/Reverser forward.
Artemus Gordon gets out his item storage gun, points it at the cannon, and gets the cannon safely secured into his item storage.
Judging his moment, Artemus Gordon scrambles off the flatcar, and pulls up on Raton’s coupler lift bar just in time.  
The flat car goes hurtling towards the tie very hard and fast, and soon careens off the tracks before rolling down off the side of the mountain, and plunging deeply into the ravine below as Raton gently slowed down to a stop just in front of the tie.

Mr. Prindle: BURT, THAT TRAIN HAS BEEN SLOWED DOWN AND IS NOW UNARMED!!!!!

Burt: GOOD!!!!!!

Cam: THAT WAS A CLOSE CALL!!!!!

Finn: YOU AIN’T TELLIN ME!!!!!

Princess Erika: OH MY GOD, HOW DID YOU CATCH THAT IN TIME??????!!!!!!!!

Cam: NO IDEA!!!!!

Jim West and Artemus Gordon scramble off Raton’s tender and set to work on removing the loose tie out of the track until the tracks were finally clear again.

Jim West: ALRIGHT!!!!

Artemus Gordon: WE GOT IT!!!!

Cam then throws the Johnson Bar/reverser back into reverse, bumps the throttle back open, and gets Raton moving again as Jim West and Artemus Gordon scramble back onto the tender decking outside of the cab.
Meanwhile Burt and Hashimoto move all the prisoners up to front boxcar behind the locomotive on their train when…………………………

WHOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOO!!!!!!!!!  WHOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOO!!!!!

Mr. Prindle: OH GOD DAMN IT!!!!!!

Burt: WON’T ANYTHING STOP THAT TRAIN?????!!!!!!!!

Wendy: NO WAY!!!!!

Troy: YOU CAN SLOW HIM DOWN, BUT YOU CAN’T STOP HIM!!!!

Carla: Johnny 5, you wouldn’t happen to know the top speeds of the trains, would you?

Johnny 5: Our locomotive is a 45 ton General Electric Center Cab Switcher with a total of 300 horse power, and 27,000 pounds of tractive effort.  However this thing is maxed out at 32 miles an hour.
The other engine may not be as powerful with only 10,320 pounds of tractive effort weighing in at 42 tons locomotive and tender combined, but with 41 inch drive wheels, she has a top speed of close to 45-50 miles an hour.

Carla: Which means, that train can easily catch up with this one.

Burt: SHUT UP YOU STUPID CAT!!!!!

Wendy: HEY; NO ONE TALKS TO MY FRIEND CARLA THAT WAY!!!!!!

Burt: WELL I JUST DID!!!!!!  AND FOR SPEAKING OUT LOUD, YOU WILL BE THE FIRST ONE DROPPED OFF!!!!!
HEY PRINDLE, WOULDN’T NOW BE A GOOD TIME TO PLAY OUR GAME OF ROULETTE?????!!!!!

Mr. Prindle: NOT NOW, THE OTHER TRAIN IS CATCHING UP!!!!!!

WHOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOO!!!!!! WHOOOO, WHOOOO!!!!!!

And she was!!!  Her tender was now coming into view as she’s once again thundering down the tracks at a whopping 40 miles an hour.

Mr. Prindle: BURT, I’M GONNA UNCOUPLE THESE LAST 2 CARS!!!!!!

And wasting no time, Mr. Prindle uncoupled the last 2 boxcars from the rear, and the 2 last boxcars go hurtling down the track towards Raton……………

Artemus Gordon: UH-OH, REVERSE!!!!!!!

Poe: REVERSE!!!!!!!

Wasting no time, Cam throws the Johnson Bar/Reverser back into forward causing the drive wheels to spin forward like crazy before Cam shuts the throttle completely.  He then gently bumps it back open, and gets Raton to move forward as the 2 boxcars couple up.

Cam: SHIT, WE DON’T HAVE TIME FOR THIS!!!!!

Cam throws the Johnson Bar/Reverser back into reverse, and Gets Raton moving back down the track.

Johnny 5: TRY AS YOU MIGHT; YOUR TRAIN IS JUST NO MATCH FOR THAT ENGINE!!!!!  IT WAS DESIGNED FOR YARD SWITCHING; NOT A HIGH SPEED CHASE!!!!!  THAT LITTLE STEAM ENGINE IS MUCH LIGHTER, HAS LARGER DRIVE WHEELS AND WILL KEEP CATCHING UP THE MORE YOU THWART IT!!!!!!

Mr. Prindle: SHUT UP YOU!!!!!!!

Burt: LET’S THROW THIS GUY OFF THE TRAIN!!!!!  

Mr. Prindle: GOOD IDEA!!!!!  HE’S JUST A ROBOT AND NOT A TRUE HOSTAGE!!!!!

Burt: HASHIMOTO?????!!!!!!  THROW THIS PIECE OF SCRAP METAL OFF OUR TRAIN!!!!!  IT’S NOT A TRUE HOSTAGE, AND SERVES US NO PURPOSE!!!!!!

Hashimoto cracks his knuckles, picks up Johnny 5’s crate, and carries it over his head.

Our friends wouldn’t have any of it, but with their hands tied, they were as good as powerless.

Wendy: NOOOOO!!!!!  YOU CAN’T DO THAT!!!!!  HE’S OUR FRIEND!!!!!

Troy: YOU PUT OUR FRIEND DOWN!!!!!!

Chelia: YOU WON’T GET AWAY WITH THIS!!!!!!!

Princess Chloe: JUST WHO DO YOU THINK YOU ARE!!!!!!!

Princess Mackenzie: YOU ARE THE WORST!!!!!!

Twilight Sparkle: YOU ARE WORSE THAN SCUM FOR DOING THIS!!!!!

Cadence: YOU GUYS BETTER PUT HIM DOWN!!!!!

Celestia: I’LL SEE THAT YOU’RE THROWN IN THE DUNGEON FOR THIS!!!!!

But it was all but hopeless and in vain.  Using all his might, Hashimoto hurled Johnny 5’s crate out of the boxcar causing it to crash into the side of an embankment.
This in turn destroyed Johnny 5’s crate, but also set him free.

Johnny 5: OOOOOOOOOOOWWWWWWWWWW!!!!!  

Artemus Gordon then spots Johnny 5 laying on his side next to the tracks, and not long after Finn spots him.

Artemus Gordon: I SEE A ROBOT ALONG SIDE THE TRACKS!!!!!

Cam: THAT MUST BE JOHNNY 5!!!!!!

Cam scrambles out of the engineer’s seat, gets out his item storage gun, points it at Johnny 5, and puts him in the item storage before carefully releasing him safely on board Raton’s tender.  Cam then shrinks Johnny down to action figure size.

Cam: JOHNNY 5!!!!!!  THANK GOODNESS YOU’RE ALRIGHT!!!!

Johnny 5: AND IT’S WONDERFUL TO SEE YOU’RE OKAY TOO!!!!!  

Cam: I’ll send you over to my sister Princess Erika, so you can tell her what had happened.

Johnny 5: YOU GOT IT!!!!

Cam: HELMSLEY????!!!!!!

Helmsley: YES SIR????!!!!

Cam then gently hands Johnny 5 to Helmsley.

Cam: This is my Robot friend Johnny 5.  He was thrown off the other train, but is thankfully unhurt.
He could be full of vital information, and may become of help to us.  With that being said, take him over to Princess Erika right away.

Helmsley: YOU GOT IT SIR!!!!!

Cam gets back in the engineer’s seat as Helmsley carefully takes Johnny 5 over to Princess Erika.

Helmsley: This guy’s a friend of your brother’s and was supposedly thrown off the train in front of us.  It’s possible he has information that could help us.

Princess Erika: We’ve met him before, but never really talked!!!!
Just place him next to me.

Helmsley: No problem your highness!!!!

Princess Erika: Hey, are you okay?

Johnny 5: A little banged up, but otherwise undamaged.  I’m glad to see that our friend Camaro is alright after he walked the plank.

Princess Erika: Yeah, he almost died though, had I not been around to save him……

Johnny 5: So you were the one who saved his life?

Princess Erika: Yep!!!!  But had I been a moment too late, I wouldn’t have had the chance…………………..I’m just glad I was able to find him when I did.

Johnny 5: Well you’ve done great your highness.  The others were VERY worried.  Hand Maiden Wendy thought all this was her fault.

Princess Erika: Why’s that?

Johnny 5: Well because it turns out she and General Ren were betrothed a long time ago, but after the death of Wendy’s parents, the arranged marriage was cancelled.  This pissed off Ren, and now he’s after Wendy and all of her friends.  However getting Wendy is only a perk in his job.  He really works for King Drago and Queen Xayide, and is attempting to help them take over the Magic Kingdom.
Poor little Wendy wouldn’t stop crying after she saw our friend Camaro walk the plank.
But since you saved his life, and he seems to be doing well, you have our eternal gratitude.
I only wish there was a way for me to relay this message to everyone else back aboard the enemy train.

Princess Erika: Hey, don’t worry about it!!!!  It’ll all be okay.  
Once I revived Cam, he told me everything about our relationship in the real world.
Not gonna lie, I kinda had a crush on him, but after Cam told me that I’m really his little sister back in the real world, I feel that’s the most wonderful gift I could have been given.  I’m often very lonely in the underwater kingdom, and therefor have always wanted a big brother.  To top it off, we’re not just siblings but best friends too.  Then it gets better when I hear not only Cam’s my brother, but Troy is too!!!!!!  It makes me so happy because I have 2 big brothers!!!!!
Because of this, I don’t ever want to leave Cam’s side.  I love him so much now that I know he’s my brother, and to know that I saved his life only makes me happier……………..

Johnny 5: I think that’s wonderful!!!!!

Princess Erika: Cam and I soon arrive in Elbe, and we manage to get ahold of this train and a flatcar.  Then we bump into our new friends Jim West and Artemus Gordon who are police officers that have business to settle with this Ren guy.  We team up with them, and they’ve been a great help to us so far.
Artemus Gordon’s an inventor, and he puts together this cannon that Cam has in his item storage, and puts it to work.
We make it through the Frozen Tundra, and make it to Eatonville, but once we arrive in Eatonville, Artemus fires the cannon, and destroys Captain Blue Beard’s ship.   Then it gets better when we find our royal guards, Poe, Finn, Ramsley, and Helmsley who were under Blue Beard’s command, return to us!!!!
Jim West and Artemus Gordon then arrest Captain Blue Beard and their pirates, while Cam gets some fancy cars out of the water, and we top off our fuel and water.
We then get back underway, and Cam calls up 2 more friends who are in our car Herbie, but I forgot their names……….

Johnny 5: THAT’S AWESOME!!!!!  HERBIE GOT AWAY WITH OUR FRIENDS RAMI & TOBY!!!!!

Princess Erika: THOSE ARE THE GUYS!!!!!  They’re in Tocoma waiting for us!!!!!  Now we’re chasing after this other train, which is still holding the rest of our friends hostage.  They’ve tried stopping us, but have only managed to slow us down.  Somehow you were thrown off, and now you’re safe and sound with us.

Johnny 5: I pissed off Burt, whose the guy wearing a dress, along with Mr. Prindle, and they decided I was too big of a pain since I’m just a robot and not a real hostage.  So they got rid of me.

Princess Erika: But you’re free from their grasp, and safe with us now!!!!

Johnny 5: It’s good to be back, and my my, you’re looking lovely.  Is that new swim attire I see?

Princess Erika: Glad you noticed!!!! *Giggles*  The Blue one that I usually wear was wet, and although the swimsuits have built in temperature adapters, they only work when in water, and are no good when wet out in the cold air.  It's not a problem back at home where both my underwater kingdom and the city of Grand Bay Lake are both in a warm climate, however it's a COMPLETELY different story here, and therefor I'm just as prone to catching a cold in wet clothes as anyone else.  So I took off my wet blue one, and put this green one on.  It’s almost identical, but is in a dark green, and has red and yellow flowers on it with yellow flowers on the bikini bottoms, red flowers on the skirt, and both yellow and red flowers on the top.  Where as the blue ones have white and pink flowers with white flowers on the bikini bottoms, pink flowers on the skirt, and both pink and white flowers on the top.  But this is still a 3 piece skirted tankini just like the blue one, and is my second favorite.  

Johnny 5: It looks lovely on you!!!!

Princess Erika: Thanks!!!!  You’re really sweet!!!!!

Cam then spots a wooden tie sticking up out of the tracks from around a bend, and at the same time Artemus Gordon spots it too!!!!!

Artemus Gordon: I’M UNCOUPLING THESE BOX CARS!!!!!!  CAM, REVERSE!!!!!!!!!

Poe: REVERSE!!!!!!

Cam: NO NEED TO TELL ME TWICE!!!!!

Princess Erika: OH NO, NOT THIS AGAIN!!!!!

Cam throws the Johnson Bar/Reverser forward causing the drive wheels to spin forward like crazy again, and the 2 boxcars go flying backwards before they hit the tie, careen off the tracks, and plunge into the ravine below.
Burt and Mr. Prindle see the 2 boxcars come crashing off the rails, but still no sign of the engine.

Burt: GOD DANM IT!!!!

Mr. Prindle: WON’T ANYTHING STOP THAT TRAIN??????!!!!!

Burt: Last chance would be to set the tunnel on fire!!!!

Mr. Prindle: Good idea Burt!!!!  We’ve got one last boxcar to dispose of, and it’s the one behind this one.  We’ll drop it off in the tunnel, set it on fire, and it should be enough to destroy the other train.

Something pops up in Carla’s head, and it’s visions of the future……………………she sees that the plan goes to waist, but that also much worse lies ahead.

Carla: Wendy????!!!!!

Wendy: Yes Carla?

Carla: Heed my warnings, but…………………

Carla tells Wendy everything as the train enters the tunnel.
Burt and Mr. Prindle smother Kerosene all over the second to the last boxcar, light a match before setting it on fire, and uncoupling it from the train.

Mr. Prindle: That ought to do it!!!!

Burt: If it doesn’t, we’re screwed!!!!!

The train then exits the burning tunnel, and makes its way over a bridge.
However the Raton soon makes its way towards the tunnel, and Cam is feeling a little uneasy.

Cam: Does anyone have a lantern of some kind????!!!!!  I don’t want us to be going in that tunnel blind????!!!!!

Artemus Gordon: No problem!!!!!

Artemus Gordon climbed off the tender tank, out onto the rear of the tender decking, and held out his large lantern to light the way as Raton backed into the tunnel.
Our friends were soon greeted by a not so good site.

Artemus Gordon: OH SHIT; FIRE!!!!!!  FIRE!!!!!!!

Jim West: OH SHIT; THERE’S A FIRE UP AHEAD!!!!!

Finn: A FIRE???!!!!!!  THAT’S BULLSHIT MAN!!!!!

Cam has a better look and sees that the tunnel fire is caused by a burning boxcar before throwing Raton’s Johnson Bar/Reverser forward causing the drive wheels to spin like crazy before he shut her throttle all the way bringing her to a stop.

Cam: IT’S THE BOXCAR THAT’S ON FIRE!!!!!!  I NEED EVERYONE TO GET OFF AND MOVE TO THE FRONT OF THE LOCOMOTIVE!!!!!!

One by one, everyone gets off Raton and makes their way to the very front of her while Cam stays behind.

Cam: NOW GORDON, YOU WOULDN’T HAPPEN TO HAVE A HOSE OF SOME KIND, WOULD YA?

Artemus Gordon: I BELIEVE I DO, WHY????!!!!!

Cam: I CAN HOOK UP THE HOSE TO THE BLOW DOWN NOZZLE ON THE LOCOMOTIVE, AND IF THE HOSE IS AIMED AT THE BURNING CAR, I CAN OPEN THE BLOW DOWN VALVE, AND PUT OUT THE FIRE, SINCE A BLOW DOWN IS VAPORIZED WATER JETTING OUT OF THE BOTTOM OF THE BOILER!!!!!

Artemus Gordon: THAT MIGHT WORK; IT’S WORTH A SHOT!!!!!!

Cam: AIM THAT HOSE AT THE BURNING CAR, I’LL TRY TO HOOK IT UP TO THE BLOW DOWN NOZZLE!!!!!  I’LL LET YOU KNOW WHEN I OPEN UP THE BLOW DOWN VALVE!!!!

Artemus Gordon: GOT IT!!!!

Cam hooks up one end of the hose to the blow down nozzle by Raton’s firebox area as best as he can, and once he has it on as secure as he could, he gives Artemus Gordon the okay.

Cam: ALRIGHT GORDON, I’M OPENING THE VALVE NOW!!!!!

Artemus Gordon: OKAY!!!!!

Cam opens up the blow down valve as Artemus aims the hose at the burning boxcar, and once after the blow down vale is opened, vaporized water jets EVERYWHERE out of both loose ends near the blow down nozzle, and out of the end of the hose aimed at the burning car.

Artemus Gordon: I THINK IT’S WORKING CAM!!!!!!

Cam: IT BETTER WORK BECAUSE I’M GETTING BRIAN HEARTHED OVER HERE!!!!

Slowly but surely, Artemus Gordon managed to pour the vaporized water all over the burning boxcar and successfully put out the fire.

Artemus Gordon: ALRIGHT!!!!!  IT WORKED!!!!!

Cam: AWESOME!!!!

Cam shut off the blow down valve, and the locomotive’s computer system instantly set to work on opening up the lifting injectors, and filling the boiler up with water to make sure there was still enough water in the sight glass to cover the firebox crown sheet.

Cam: ALRIGHT EVERYONE!!!!  LET’s GET OUT OF HERE!!!!

All of our friends soon climb back onto Raton’s tender tank, and Cam gets back in the Engineer’s seat, throws the Johnson Bar/Reverser back into reverse, gives 3 blasts on the whistle, eases the throttle back open, and gets Raton moving again.
The locomotive soon couples up to the burned boxcar and shoves it down the track.

Cam: OKAY, GUYS I HAVE A PLAN!!!!!  

Jim West: OKAY, LET’S HEAR IT!!!!

Princess Erika: I WANT IN!!!!!

Cam: Okay, here’s how it’ll go……………………

As Cam tells everyone his plans, the enemy train soon makes it to base camp just 5 miles south of Tocoma.

Mr. Prindle: WE MADE IT, AND NOT A MOMENT TOO SOON!!!!!

Burt: THERE’S THE AIRSHIP!!!!!

Mr. Prindle: LETS GET EVERYONE ON AS FAST AS POSSIBLE!!!!!

Burt: GOT IT!!!!!

The train soon stops at base camp, and Burt, Mr. Prindle, and Hashimoto waste no time in getting their prisoners off.

Mr. Prindle: OKAY!!!!  SO WHO WILL GO WHERE????!!!!

Burt: TIME FOR OUR GAME OF ROULETTE!!!!!!

Through the game of Roulette each of the prisoners is sent to a different castle of the Koopalings.

Burt: PERFECT!!!!

Mr. Prindle: Morton’s Castle holds a treasure, and we don’t want ANY of our prisoners getting ahold of it, so we won’t send anyone to Morton Koopa Jr.  However, this Dark Blue almost Purple Haired Girl wouldn’t shut up, so we’ll drop her off at Wendy Koopa’s Castle.

Wendy: WHAT?????!!!!!!!!  YOU WOULDN’T DARE SEND ME TO A CASTLE OF SOMEONE BARING THE SAME NAME AS ME!!!!!!

Burt: OH, BUT WE WILL, AND WATCH US DO IT!!!!!!!

Mr. Prindle: GENTLEMEN ON THE AIRSHIP, THIS LITTLE BLUE HAIRED GIRL IS TO BE TAKEN TO WENDY KOOPA’S CASTLE!!!!!

Burt: NOW THE BOY WHOSE THE TWIN BROTHER OF THE BOY WHO WALKED THE PLANK!!!!!!!

Mr. Prindle: We’ll send him to Lemmy Koopa’s Castle!!!!!

Troy: UH-OH!!!!!  I DON’T LIKE THE SOUND OF THAT!!!!!

Burt: Now how about the pink haired and the brunette???!!!!

Mr. Prindle: I have just the place to send them!!!!!  How about the twins castles???!!!!!  Iggy & Larry Koopa’s Castles????!!!!!!  That will be perfect!!!!!

Chelia: TWIN CASTLES?????!!!!!

Manaka: THAT DOESN’T SOUND GOOD!!!!

Burt: OH, IT ISN’T!!!!!!  Now where do you want the stupid cat girl????!!!!!

Mr. Prindle: She’s the most mature when she transforms into human form, and will be perfect for Roy O. Koopa!!!!!  In fact she’s spicy just how Roy likes em!!!!!  HAAAAA, HAAAAAAAA, HAAAAAAAAA!!!!!

Carla: WHAT?????!!!!!!!  YOU ARE NOT SENDING ME TO SOME PERVERT!!!!!!

Burt: HOW ABOUT THE ALL THE HORSES AND THE REST OF THE GIRLS?????!!!!!!

Mr. Prindle: Ludwig Von Koopa will have LOTS of fun with the rest of the 4 girls, and we’ll put the horses in King Helmaroc The Demon Bird’s nest!!!!!!  They'll keep him well fed!!!!

Muina: UH-OH!!!!

Sayu: THIS LUDWIG SOUNDS LIKE A CREEP!!!!

Nina: NO DOUBT THAT’S WHAT HE IS!!!!

Ayumi: GIRLS, I’M SCARED!!!!!

Luna: NO ONE SAID ANYTHING ABOUT A DEMON BIRD??????!!!!!!!

Celestia: OH NOOOOO!!!!!!  KING HELMAROC IS KNOWN FOR EATING OUR KIND!!!!!!

Cadence:  KEEP HIM WELL FED??????!!!!!  OH NO; WE'RE CONDOR FOOD!!!!

Twilight: THAT’S NOT WHAT I WANTED TO HEAR!!!!!

Burt: And we give the royal princesses to King Drago and Queen Xayide!!!!  They’ll be most pleased!!!!!

Princess Chloe: Princess Erika……………..Camaro Von Ludwig…………….

Princess Mackenzie: Help us………………….

With the game of Roulette figured out, all of the prisoners were loaded onto the airship, and taken to their final prison destinations.
Cam and his friend onboard Raton soon see the air-ship flying away from base camp shortly after Raton steams out of the tunnel.

Ramsley: LOOK, OVER THERE!!!!!!

Helmsley: UP IN THE AIR!!!!!

Finn: SHIT!!!!!  WE ARE TOO LATE!!!!!!

Cam: THIS IS NOT THE END!!!!!  WE STILL HAVE OUR PLANS UP OUR SLEEVES!!!!!

Poe: RIGHT!!!!!

Princess Erika: We’ll still rescue our friends, won’t we?

Cam: Of course!!!!  It’ll take more time, but we’ll get em out!!!!!
Now pipe down and hold on tight!!!!

Princess Erika sits back down in the cab on the ledge next to Cam’s seat with an action figures sized Johnny 5 next to her, Poe sits down in the cab on the ledge next to Finn’s seat, Ramsley and Helmsley sit on the sides of the tender decking between the cab and tender tank, and both Jim West and Artemus Gordon sit on the tender tank by the water filler.
Cam notches up the Johnson Bar/Reverser, opens the throttle to wide open, and sends Raton flying up to her top speed of 50 miles an hour.

Burt: ALRIGHT!!!!!  GET US TO TOCOMA, PRONTO!!!!!!

Mr. Prindle: TIME TO CELEBRATE OUR VICTORY!!!!!

As the Diesel powered train moves out of base camp……………………

WHOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOO!!!!!!!!   WHOOOOOOOO, WHOOOOOOOOOOO!!!!!!!!  WHOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOO!!!!!!!

Mr. Prindle: OH SHIT!!!!!

Burt: IT’S BACK!!!!!!!

This time Raton was charging at the other train on full speed and there was no stopping her.

Princess Erika: CAM, WHAT’S THE PLAN AGAIN????!!!!!

Cam: WE’RE GONNA MAKE THAT TRAIN GO SO FAST THAT IT’LL CRASH ON THE CURVE NEAR THE STEEP DROP, BUT BEFORE WE'RE ABLE TO CRASH, ARTEMUS AND JIM WILL UNCOUPLE US, AND I’LL STOP US BEFORE WE REACH THAT CURVE!!!!!

Princess Erika: OKAY…………..I’M HAVING SECOND THOUGHTS NOW!!!!!

Burt: GET THIS THING GOING AS FAST AS YOU CAN!!!!!!

The other train was soon going its top speed of 35 miles an hour, but it was still no match for Raton, and it wasn’t long until Raton and the burned boxcar car caught up.

Artemus Gordon: THERE THEY ARE!!!!!

Cam’s hand was shaking on the throttle handle as Raton steamed up to the other train.

Mr. Prindle: OH SHIT, HERE THEY COME!!!!!

Burt: WHAT DO YOU THINK THEY’LL DO TO US!!!!!

Artemus Gordon: STEADY CAM!!!!!

Jim West: WE’RE ALMOST THERE!!!!!!

Cam’s hand continued shaking on Raton’s throttle handle until……………….

CLUNK!!!!!!

AT LAST!!!!!!  Raton had coupled the burned boxcar up with the enemy train.

Artemus Gordon: OKAY, JIM AND I ARE GONNA UNCOUPLE US FROM THE TRAIN, AND WHEN WE DO, REVERSE!!!!!!!

Soon the train’s speed was going too dangerously fast to handle the route of the mountain range, and Cam knew this too.  Never had he run a locomotive so fast in his life, and nor had he run an train in such a dire situation, let alone in reverse, but it all came down to this move.

Artemus Gordon: I GOT THE HOOK!!!!!

Using the water tower hook, Artemus Gordon slides the hook onto burned boxcar’s coupler lift bar.

Artemus Gordon: OKAY………………………………..NOW!!!!!!! REVERSE!!!!!!!

Jim West: CAM, REVERSE!!!!!!

Poe: REVERSE!!!!!!!

Judging his moment, Gordon pulls up on the burned boxcar coupler lift bar, Jim pulls up on Raton's coupler lift bar, and Cam throws Raton’s Johnson Bar/Reverser forward causing the drive wheels to spin forward like crazy, and sending the enemy diesel train on a one way crash course.

Burt & Mr. Prindle: OH SHIT!!!!!!

Burt: THEY PLANNED TO CRASH US!!!!!!

Mr. Prindle: NO WHERE LEFT TO GO EXCEPT JUMP!!!!!!!

Engineer: WE’RE GOING WAY TOO FAST!!!!!!!

Brakeman: I CAN’T STOP IT!!!!!!!!

Burt, Hashimoto, Mr. Prindle, the engineer, and the brakeman of the enemy train jumped off, while Cam shut Raton’s throttle, and Ramsley tightened up the brake wheel on Raton’s tender slowing her down just in the nick of time.

Poe: OH MY GOD!!!!!

Finn: HOLY SHIT!!!!

Princess Erika: OH MY GOSH!!!!!

Johnny 5: WOOOOOOOOOOOOOAAAAAAAAAAHHHHH!!!!!!

Ramsley: BRILLIANT MOVE!!!!

Helmsley: THAT WAS A CLOSE CALL FOR US!!!!!

Artemus Gordon: DONE & DONE!!!!!

Jim West: NOW THAT’S A WHOOPIN!!!!!!!

Raton slows down to a grinding halt as the runaway enemy train careens off the tracks on a tight bend, and plunges into the ravine before the fuel tank ruptures on impact once it hits the bottom of the chasm.  The locomotive and train cars burst into flames and explode shortly after impact.
Metal and wood particles flew ALL OVER the ravine.

Cam: BOO & YA!!!!!

Jim West: NOW TIME TO CAPTURE SOME MORE BAD GUYS!!!!

Artemus Gordon: MY THOUGHT’S EXACTLY!!!!

Jim West and Artemus Gordon jump off of Raton’s tender and soon find Burt, Hashimoto, and Mr. Prindle lying in the bushes miraculously unharmed.

Jim West: Burt, Hashimoto, & Mr. Prindle, you 3 are under arrest!!!!!

Artemus Gordon: You will be held in our custody until further notice!!!!

Burt: OH SHIT!!!!

Mr. Prindle: GOD DAMN IT!!!!!

Ramsley and Helmsley soon find the engineer and brakeman from the other train.  They were alive, but injured from the jump.

Ramsley: This wasn’t your fault, you 2 were under orders of 2 bad men.

Helmsley: Princess Erika is on board our train, and knows healing magic.

Ramsley: She’ll heal you as best as she can until we reach Tocoma.

Engineer: Thank you……..

Brakeman: We really appreciate it.

Jim West and Artemus Gordon put Burt, Hashimoto, and Mr. Prindle in handcuffs before marching em onto Raton’s tender.

Cam: Do me a HUGE favor, and keep those creeps the HELL AWAY from my little sister!!!!

Jim West: No problem!!!!!

Artemus Gordon: You go it!!!!

Burt: WHAT????!!!!!

Mr. Prindle: HOW IS IT POSSIBLE THAT THIS KID IS STILL ALIVE AFTER WALKING THE PLANK?????!!!!

Princess Erika: I used healing magic on him, which saved his life.

Ramsley: Speaking of which, the crew from the other train is pretty banged up, but their injuries aren't too severe fortunately.

Helmsley: However, they could use some medical attendion.

Princess Erika: Bring em to me, and I’ll set to work on healing them right away!!!!

The injured Engineer and Brakeman soon climb aboard Raton, and Princess Erika sets to work at once.
Wasting no time, Cam throws Raton’s Johnson Bar/Reverser back into reverse, gives 3 blasts on the whistle, eases the throttle gently open, and Raton steams her way to Tocoma.
Both the injured engineer and brakeman were VERY impressed by Raton’s beauty.  They couldn’t believe that they were being hauled back to Tocoma on a vintage Narrow Gauge Class 8-18D 2-6-0 Mogul locomotive from the 1800s.

Engineer: WOW!!!!!  THIS THING IS A CLASSIC!!!!

Brakeman: YOU DON’T SEE MANY OF THESE AROUND ANYMORE!!!!!

Princess Erika: Try not to talk too much, okay?  You may not be injured that badly, but you 2 need some rest.

Engineer: Thank you very much……………….you’re a very kind little girl.

Princess Erika: You’re welcome.

Raton soon gently steams out of the mountain range, and coasts down hill into Tocoma.
It was nightfall when Raton steamed her into Tocoma with her cylinder drain cocks hissing, fire glowing, headlamp shining, firebox drumming, rods knocking, air-compressor banging, low pressure safety valve popping off, brass gleaming, boiler jacket shining, whistle blowing, and bell ringing.
Cam gave a VERY LONG blast on the whistle followed by one short blast with a……………..

WHOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOO, WHOOOOO!!!!!

As Finn rang the bell with a…………………..

CLANG, CLANG_CLANG, CLANG-CLANG, CLANG-CLANG, CLANG-CLANG, CLANG-CLANG, CLANG-CLANG, CLANG-CLANG, CLANG-CLANG, CLAAAAAANNNNGGGGGGG!!!!!!!!!

As Raton gently slows down to a full and complete stop in Tocoma’s train station.
Cam then shuts the throttle, throws the Johnson Bar/Reverser forward, and gives one blast on the whistle signaling that their 50 mile journey had finally come to an end.

Cam: ALRIGHT!!!! TIME TO DISEMBARK!!!!!

EVERYONE: GOT IT!!!!!

Burt, Hashimoto, and Mr. Prindle are handed over to the local police by Jim West and Artemus Gordon for questioning.  Johnny 5 is returned to normal size, and the injured Engineer and Fireman from the enemy train are examined by nurses for their injuries.
As Ramsley, Helmsley, and Princess Erika disembark with everyone else, Cam wastes no time in shutting down Raton’s firing computer, putting out the fire, and shutting down the engine.
In no time, all the valves were closed, and the boiler was completely filled and bottled up.
Cam then walks out onto Raton’s running boards, climbs on top of the boiler, and places a smoke stack cover on top of Raton’s Spark arresting diamond stack.

Cam: DONE & DONE!!!!!

Cam then climbs off the locomotive before getting out his item storage gun, and puts the locomotive in his item storage.
Soon, Cam hears a familiar horn.

https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=wfMiaOygaiM

Herbie: BEEEEP, BEEEP!!!!

Cam: Herbie?????!!!!!

Rami: HEY BUDDY!!!!!!

Toby: GOOD TO SEE YOU’RE ALL OKAY!!!!!!

Cam: HERBIE!!!!!!!!!!!!

Cam runs up to Herbie and hugs him on the fender.
Tears soon came pouring out of Herbie’s headlamps.  He was very happy to see that his owner was okay.

Cam: It’s wonderful to see that you’re okay Herbie!!!!!
And I’m glad you’re both unharmed too Rami and Toby!!!!

Princess Erika: HEY CAM, ARE THESE THE REST OF OUR FRIENDS????!!!!!

Cam: Of course!!!!!  Rami, and Toby, this is my little sister Princess Erika, those are her royal Guards Ramsley and Helmsley, and those police officers are our new friends Jim West and Artemus Gordon.  And you know our car Herbie!

Rami: Hello, it’s wonderful to meet you your royal highness.

Toby: It’s such a great honor!!!!

Princess Erika: *BLUSHES BRIGHT PINK*  Stop, no need to be so formal!!!!  *Giggles* Also how could I forget such a cute little car???!!!!!

Herbie: Beep, Beep!!!!

Princess Erika: Great to see you again Baby!!!!

Herbie: Beep, Beep, Beep!!!!

Cam: OH?????!!!!!  By the way, before I forget!!!!!

Cam gets out his item storage gun, and selects Rami’s Ford Shelby Mustang Cobra GT, and Toby’s Koenigsegg Agera.

Rami: WOW!!!!!!!  YOU MANAGED TO SAVE OUR CARS?????!!!!!!

Cam: We managed to sink Captain Blue Beard’s boat, but your cars were floating in the wreckage unharmed.  However, I do think the engines, transmissions, and computers will need repairs before they can be fired up again.

Toby: No problem, I’m just glad you were able to save em!!!!

Cam: Me too!!!!!  Were you able to get rooms at the hotel?

Rami: Already taken care of my friend!!!

Toby: DUDE!!!!  We’re in the presidential suite, and it’s enough to fit all of us.

Rami: However, you and your sister will get the master bedroom and bathroom.  There’s still plenty of room to spare for the rest of us since the suite houses 3 bedrooms and 3 and a half bathrooms.

Cam: Thank you so much!!!!!

Princess Erika: We really appreciate it!!!!!  I can sure use a bath!!!!

Cam: A shower sounds good now that I think about it!!!!

Princess Erika: What time is it Cam?

Cam: It’s 7:30, so let’s take an hour to refresh, and meet in the hotel’s main dining room.

Princess Erika: At which point, I’ll call us for a meeting so we can work out a plan.

Jim West: Alright, Gordon and I just got all the information we need from Burt, Hashimoto, and Prindle.  

Princess Erika: PERFECT!!!!!  We can discuss this all during the meeting over dinner, sound good?

Artemus Gordon: Sounds like a plan your highness!!!!

Johnny 5: We’re all under your command your highness!!!!

Herbie: BEEEP, BEEEP!!!!!

Ramsley: Alright, now it’s up to our hotel rooms!!!!!

Helmsley: Perfect!!!!!

Princess Erika: Meeting’s in an hour everyone!!!!


To Be Continued………………….

Chapter 32

Meeting On Rescue Mission

Cam was enjoying a nice hot shower in the hotel room suite’s master bathroom.  It had been a VERY LONG day fighting in helicopters, walking the plank, and chasing with steam trains, so a nice hot shower is just what Cam needed to wind down.

Cam: A nice hot shower is just what the doctor ordered!!!!!!

Cam finished rinsing off before shutting off the water, wrapping a towel around himself, opening up the curtain, and getting out of the tub/shower combo.
Cam then put on a nice clean pair of Banana Republic Boot Cut Jeans, and got out a nice clean Tommy Bahama’s Shirt when………….

KNOCK, KNOCK!!!!

Princess Erika: Hey Cam, it’s me!!!!  May I come in???!!!!

Cam: Sure, I just got out of the shower, and my lower half’s covered, so you’re good!!!!

Princess Erika then enters the bathroom.

Princess Erika: PERFECT!!!!!!  I can SOOOOOOOOO USE a bath right now!!!!

Cam: *BLUSHES DARK RED* WAHT????!!!!!

Cam shut his eyes as his little sister takes off her swimsuit, and runs herself bath.  Yes, he’s seen her naked hundreds of times in the real world given that they’re siblings, and he's been responsible for taking care of her for most of her life.  However he still feels awkward since she's still a beautiful girl, and Princess Erika can easily see it.

Princess Erika: *Giggles* Hey, why the eyes closed????!!!!!  You know I don’t mind!!!!  *Giggles*

Cam: But I do!!!!  Your big brother’s not a peeping tom!!!!  Although I’ve seen you naked A LOT in the real world given that I've been responsible for taking care of you for most of your life..........but seeing a beautiful girl naked is still awkward for me, regardless whether you're my sister or not, so I’d rather have the eyes shut!!!!

Princess Erika: Awwwwwwwwwww, you’re no fun!!!! *Giggles*  Still it's kinda cute seeing you shy like this...........

Cam: I can't help it!!!!  And I was just about to shave too!!!!!

Princess Erika: Don’t worry, I’ll be in the bath soon enough!!!!  *Giggles*
My other swimsuit’s in the dryer, so I should have some nice clean clothes shortly.

Cam: Okay, no problem!!!!

Princess Erika: Alright, the water level and temperature’s perfect!!!!!  Also that's the perfect amount of bubbles, so mind helping me wash my hair and scrub my back???!!!!  *Giggles*

Cam: Okay, no problem, since I help you out in the real world, and I do owe you for saving my life.

Princess Erika: That’s a good brother!!!! *Giggles*

Cam: Just let me shave and brush my teeth first.

Princess Erika: No problem!!!!  I'm in no hurry..............

Someone knocks on the bathroom door, and Cam answers it.

Johnny 5: Hey Cam!!!!  I thought Princess Erika would want her clean swim attire.

Princess Erika: PERFECT!!!!

Cam: I’ll take it, and while I’m at it, you can take the other one, and put it in the wash!!!!

Johnny 5: You got it Sir!!!!

Princess Erika: Thanks Johnny 5!!!!!

Johnny 5: Glad to be of service your highness!!!!

With the swimsuits swapped, Cam gets back to work on shaving the rest of his face, then sets to work on brushing his teeth when Princess Erika notices the HUGE scar running down the length of Cam’s back along with the various scalding marks, and the scars running up and down his arms.

Princess Erika: OH MY GOSH!!!!  Cam, where did you get those scars????!!!!

Cam: Oh????!!!!!  It’s what happens when you work with machinery over the years.  What can I say, accidents will happen!!  LOL!!!!

Princess Erika: Tell me the truth Cam!!!!

Cam: Not gonna lie, the big one was from a nasty accident at the Airbus Helicopters Training Academy.  I was performing a routine safety pre-flight inspection on my assigned Airbus EC-130 B4 Ecco-Star Helicopter.  I was at the Fenstron Tail Rotor of my air craft to check to make sure all the fan blades in the turbine assembly were good and safe for flight, and they were…………….
However, they weren’t so much on the neighboring EC-130…………….
Upon start up of the neighboring helicopter, a HUGE chunk of fan blade from the Fen Stron Tail Rotor came flying off, and gave me a NASTY large cut on my back.
I threw the BIGGEST F-Bomb catch phrase that was loud enough to call all flight instructors over.  When they saw what had happened, the neighboring helicopter was shut off, and instantly red flagged.  I was rushed to the ER, and thankfully only 2 main arteries were cut, and I lost 3 and a half pints of blood.  The nurses and doctors said I was VERY lucky because it could have been MUCH worse!!!!!
It’s rare to survive a tail rotor accident, however most tail rotor accidents on helicopters happen on the more common propellers and not the newer Fenstron turbines.  Everyone had to write statements about what happened, but no one was really at fault since it was an accident.
After the students instructors of the neighboring helicopter finished writing statements, they took the one I was assigned to on a test flight to make sure it was still safe, and thankfully it was.

Princess Erika: OH MY GOSH!!!!!  What do you think caused it????!!!!!

Cam: It turns out it was a defect in the construction in the metal alloy of the fan blade.  Small fatigue cracks that couldn’t be seen by the naked eyes had developed since the blade’s construction, and after 10 years in service, it was only a matter of time before that blade would shatter.  
Normally performing a pre-flight safety inspection on a helicopter with yours shut off while a neighboring one was starting up, was common practice, and perfectly safe to do, until that accident happened.
After the report was sent to the FAA, no helicopters could be started up in a heliport until pre-flight inspections on all scheduled helicopters had been performed.
Meaning, if you’re ready to go and someone isn’t, tough you have to wait to start up until that someone else is done with a pre-flight inspection.  The new rule is now common practice throughout the United States and Canada since the accident.

Princess Erika: WOW!!!!!!!  Thank goodness you’re okay!!!!!!

Cam: The rest of the scars you see are all scald marks from hot boiling steam and water after crawling underneath firey hot steam locomotives while oiling and greasing all the moving parts in the under carriage.  One engine in particular, a notoriously cantankerous Heisler geared steam logging locomotive, located up in the mountains near the San Francisco Bay Area, known as the Roaring Camp & Big Trees Railroad, had a good amount of moving parts running right underneath the hot firebox area.  
Steam leaks out pipes on all steam engines, and you’re gonna get burned and scalded when working on them, and over the years I’ve done Engineer For A Day on the Roaring Camp & Big Trees Railroad in Felton, California, worked part time as a fireman on weekends on the Paigton & Dartmouth Steam Railway in Dartmouth England during the time Troy and I were studying abroad for our college program, and I spent most of the last year becoming an FRA certified Fireman and Engineer on both the Cumbres & Toltec Scenic Railroad, and Durango & Silverton Narrow Gauge Railroad in Colorado.   Being scalded and burned was bound to happen, and is just part of the territory.  The reason I didn’t get burned by the one we were on just now is because the fireman’s side runs off a computer, which in the real world is almost non-existent.
As for the scars on my arms……………UUUUUGGGGGGGHHHH!!!!!  I wasn’t really a car mechanic, but I helped my friend and fellow racing driver Mario, work on cars, and some of em, ESPECIALLY the American and Japanese Cars were a NIGHTMARE to work on.  All these large scar slits you see on my wrists were from times I accidentally cut them open on intake and exhaust manifolds while trying to swap out oil filters.  A part that should be easy to remove most of the time, but with most auto manufacturers of today, they put some of the most simple and easy to remove parts in bizarre locations.  And you don’t know that you’ve cut yourself because the cuts are painless and you don’t feel them.  You’re too focused on getting the job done, and it’s not until the jobs done that you notice that you’re bleeding and you’re like “OOPS!!!!”
Besides I’ve banged my head open more times than I’d care to count while timing locomotive valves, and while working on car undercarriages, so it’s all part of the territory.

Princess Erika: If working on machinery does this to you, isn’t it dangerous????!!!!!  And if it’s dangerous, why do it????!!!!

Cam: The same reasons why you like cheerleading, gymnastics, diving, tennis, track & field, ballet, and even synchronized swimming.
You’ve been lucky that you haven’t been injured too much, but you’ve sprained your wrist while in gymnastics, dislocated your shoulder while in cheerleading, and sprained your ankle while in track & field.  Thankfully you recovered after a month, which is pretty darn good, and you were back on all squads after your recovery.  Troy however, wasn't as lucky when it came to his injuries.

Princess Erika: What happened to Troy?

Troy broke his collar bone while in basketball, broke his leg in football, got a concussion in baseball, and now that I think about it more clearly he and I have BOTH broken hands and arms in Karate and Kung Fu.  You don't become a level 10 black belt over night and without A LOT of pain.
But despite the injuries and the dangers, we still do what we do because we love it.  I love machinery, and Troy loves team sports, and you love acrobatic and water sports in the real world the same way you love the water here in this world.

Princess Erika: I see your point, but just try to be careful, okay???!!!!  My biggest fear right now, more than breaking the seal on Isla Sorna, is losing you…………..especially after finding out that you’re my older brother, and I love you very much, so please keep that in mind………………

Cam: Hey, I may be beat, but it takes a lot to get rid of me.  Now move forward so I can help clean you like I promised.

Cam gets out a sponge, and gently scrubs Princess Erika’s back…………..

Princess Erika: Hey Cam, thanks……………………..I know this is awkward for you, but it means a lot to me…………….normally Manaka helps me with my baths, but…………….

Cam: She’ll be okay, I promise……………

Princess Erika: I know she will, but I was gonna say that I’m glad you’re helping me because you’re my big brother, and you’re extra special to me.

Princess Erika then gives Cam a gentle kiss on the cheek, and Cam gives her a gentle kiss on the forehead.

Cam: Alright Sweetie, time to wash your hair.

Princess Erika: Okay………….do you normally do this for me in the real world?

Cam: I used to do it all the time since you were a baby.  I still do it sometimes today, but you're slowly starting to ween off and shower on your own since you're becoming a big girl.

Princess Erika: I hope you don't stop completely...............
 
Cam: You are getting older, and will soon be a teenager.  Plus you're due to hit puberty at anytime now, but I'll always take care of you, and I promise not to stop completely helping you with your baths until you tell me you're ready to stop.  But I won't do it all the time, but only every once in a while on special occasions...............

Princess Erika: I understand.................

Cam: The reason I've helped you was because Mom and Dad wanted me to help them with taking care of you in order to teach me a sense of responsibility.  Troy and I would take turns bathing you, but it was most often me because of Troy’s busier schedule with team sports.  Troy eventually stopped because he became too busy, and since Mom and Dad were so busy with the real-estate and technology corporations, I took over the responsibility.  

Princess Erika: Makes sense………….

Cam: However, it was through these chores of taking care of you, that we developed such a strong bond, and literally became best friends.
I went through so many tough times, and with Troy being so busy along with Mom and Dad, you were always the one who listened to me, and were always nothing but understanding.
Even though you had no idea what I was talking about, you took it seriously and heard me out………………

Princess Erika: Hey, if you were going through hard times, I’d always be there for you.  Whether in this world, or the real world, and even though I don’t have any recollection of the real world, I’d still be there for you and listen to you because…………you’re my big brother and I love you very much...................................if you're in pain, I'm in pain.....................and when you're happy, I'm happy too!!!!!
So please know you can always talk to me, whatever it is, you can always tell me, and I’ll do my best to understand.  I promise.

Cam: Despite your memory loss, you’re as dedicated in this world as you are in the real world.  Your loving and caring personality shines through because you have such a great big heart, and there’s no replacing it.


Princess Erika: Hey, isn’t it a little sister’s job, to be there for her big brothers?  *Giggles*

Cam: There are also the times you can be such a little brat, but those are easily overlooked because despite being the youngest and the smallest in the family, you have the biggest heart, and you only care about what’s best for those you love and care about.  Heck, you're way more selfless than Troy and I can ever hope to be, and that's what's so wonderful and special about you.

Princess Erika: Cam, even though we haven't been siblings for a full day, you are by far the best big brother I’ve ever had, and I really truly mean that with all my heart.

Cam gently strokes Princess Erika's beautiful loving face before giving her a gentle kiss on the forehead.

Cam: Here you go Sweetie. Please let me know if there’s anything else I can help you with.

Princess Erika: Thank you.............

Cam then gets a towel for her before making his way back to the sink vanity, puts on his shirt, fixes his hair, and puts his shoes back on.
Princess Erika smiled at him in tears of joy, happy to know that her big brother really loves and cares for her the same way she does for him.

Princess Erika: You’re a very sweet boy Cam, and an even sweeter big brother.

Princess Erika then gets out of the bath, wraps her towel around herself, dries off, puts her light blue swimsuit back on, and joins Cam at the sink vanity.
It doesn’t take long for her to brush her teeth, brush and blow dry her hair, reapply her make up along with her eye brow mascara, fake eye lashes, face glitter, and lip gloss.
She then gets out her hair scrunchy, puts her hair back into a long pony tail, and places her beautiful red bow back in her hair.

Cam: You look very beautiful as always.

Princess Erika: *Blushes bright pink* Thanks Cam.

Princess Erika gives Cam a gentle kiss on the cheek before she sits down on a stool, and puts her leg up to tie her shoes.  However she had trouble tying her shoes since it wasn't essential in the underwater kingdom, and Manaka often helped her with it.  Cam saw this, and got on his knees to help her.

Cam: Don't worry, I got this!!!!

Princess Erika: Thanks Cam!!!!  You really don't have to do this you know?

Cam: I know, but I saw you were struggling, and what are big brothers for?

Princess Erika: I love you Cam, with all my heart………………

Cam: I love you too Princess…………..

Princess Erika: Mind holding my hand?

Cam: Of course!!!!

Princess Erika: Thanks!

Cam gently holds Erika’s hand and the 2 make their way back to the main living room area of the suite.

Cam: Alrighty, so is everyone accounted for?

Johnny 5: All except for Herbie whose down in the lobby!!!!  But he has his retractable antenna and can listen in from a distance!!!

Cam: Alright, it’s 8:25, so lets head on down to the main dining room and start our meeting.

Princess Erika: We need to get started on the meeting at once!!!!

And with that, everyone makes their way down to the main dining room located on the hotel’s mezzanine level just above the lobby.   Everyone sits down at a large table while Herbie parks himself in a location just below the restaurant, and extends out his retractable antenna to listen in on the meeting.

Cam: Alrighty, this meeting is now in session, but the question is where to start?

Jim West: And why was one of the 3 men Gordon and I arrested wearing a dress???!!!!

Rami: You can thank Toby and I for that!!!! LOL!!!!

Johnny 5: I’ll say we should start from the beginning when this whole invasion started!!!

Princess Erika: That’s what I’d like to hear!!!!  How did this all start???!!!!

Johnny 5: Well……………..

Johnny 5 starts everything off with how Wendy hid in Herbie’s trunk to get away from Ren, and how he and Herbie drove ALL over the City of Grand Bay Lake being chased by Ren’s thugs

Johnny 5: And the whole time this was going on, I had no idea that sweet little Wendy was hiding in the trunk!!!!!

Cam: And while this is going on…………………..

Cam then tells his part of the story on how he, Poe, and Finn borrowed an Airbus AS350 B2 A-Star Helicopter with the cannon loaded inside the rear passenger compartment………………

Cam: Sure enough we drew the enemy army of fighters away from the city, and over to the Island of Isla Nublar…………….

Poe: But we ran into inclement weather!!!!

Finn: Yeah!!!!  But thankfully no thunder storms!!!!!

Cam then goes onto telling EVERYONE about the forbidden stunt he had to pull, which put the lives of his passengers in danger as well as his own life, but it worked out to his advantage for it took out the enemy fighters……………

Cam: Unfortunately I didn’t think about the barrage of falling debris………………the falling debris ended up taking out both my engine and tail rotor……………….

Cam then goes on telling everyone how his tail rotor gave out at 5000 feet, and how had to shut down his failing engine before performing an emergency auto-rotation landing on the yacht.

Poe: Thankfully we all made it safely on board the yacht………..

Finn: We didn’t see Cam for a while though…………..

Cam: Because I knew Carla would have my guts for guarders, but she actually took it better than I expected………………

Poe: Then the ship gets invaded by pirates……………

Rami: When we see the pirates invade our yacht, Toby and I sneak aboard their ship……………..

Toby: And we disguise ourselves as new recruits.  We wanted to get information on what the pirates were up to………….

Rami: And it turns out they were hired by Ren……………….

Johnny 5: Shortly after the pirates invade, a fight breaks out, but it’s all in vain………..

Poe: All of us get captured……………

Finn: And we’re all imprisoned in a jail cell located in the bowels of the pirate ship’s cargo bay……………

Cam: I was stupid in fighting Blue Beard until the very end, but I accidentally backed myself onto the plank right after I cut off Blue Beard’s beard……………..he then puts me on trial, and I then have no choice but to walk the plank………………..

Johnny 5: I was imprisoned in a crate, and Herbie’s wheels were chocked……………..

Princess Erika: It’s shortly after then when I find Cam…………………….

Princess Erika then tells her side of the story when she and her Dolphin Sammy found Cam just in the nick of time, and took him to shore outside of the town of Elbe…………….

Princess Erika: Cam had lost consciousness, was as pale as a ghost, and was as cold as ice when Sammy and I got him to shore……………………I really thought he was gonna die…………………..so I did what my mom taught me when I was a little girl along with some healing tricks Wendy and Chelia taught me………………..I used a body heat transfer spell which transfers some of my body heat over to Cam along with the use of healing magic.   That did the trick and I was able to save Cam’s life……………when Cam feels better I feel light headed because a heat transfer spell combined with healing magic USES A LOT of energy.  However Cam was kind enough to carry me on his back, and he tells me the real story of our relationship back in the real world………………

Cam: The thing is both Princess Erika and I are not of this world……………we’re both trapped in a game that she, my twin brother Troy, and I all created to save our uncle’s company from having to file for chapter 11 bankruptcy……………our only way out is to clear the game within 100 hours, otherwise the game resets and we have to start all over from square one………………….but where Princess Erika and I come from, she’s Troy’s and my little sister………………

Princess Erika: I had no idea about any of it until Cam told me, yet however these strong feelings I’ve had for Cam were always with me deep inside my heart………….

Cam: Her memory was erased in order to fulfill her role as the Royal Princess of the Underwater Castaway Sapphire Kingdom, but her innocent, gentle, loving, and caring personality remained with her…………………and back in the real world Princess Erika and I are not only brother and sister, but we’re also best friends, and the love in her heart from that bond stayed with her……………….

Princess Erika: Which is why I believed him, every single word of what he told me………..I feel bad that I don’t recollect anything from the real world, but I believe Cam is telling the truth of us being brother and sister, otherwise I don’t think my feelings for him would be this strong……………

Cam: They say that sometimes the bond between siblings, especially special siblings can be so powerful that they’ll never die………………they’ll always linger deep inside the heart, even if the memory is erased………………..

Princess Erika: And that seems to be what happened…………………

Cam: Her love for the water also retained because back in the real world, she’s very athletic and does all sorts of sports, but water sports such as diving and synchronized swimming were always her favorite.   It’s almost impossible to get her out of the water, which is why she was given the role of a royal princess of an underwater kingdom.   That’s been her dream since she was 3, and now that dream has been fulfilled…………………And this swimsuit that she’s wearing right now, back in the real world is her favorite one.   Therefor it makes sense that it would have the magic ability to adapt to various temperatures in the water where only she would be able to survive and none of us would…………………….

Princess Erika: I’m still trying to wrap myself around this, but it’s slowly beginning to make sense…………….

Cam: And while I’m carrying her, we make our way to Elbe, and while that’s going on, how were you, Toby, and Herbie able to escape Captain Blue Beard’s ship?

Rami: While we’re disguised as Captain Blue Beard’s new recruits………..

Toby: That no good asshole Burt has us wait on him hand and foot………….

Rami: Go do this, go do that, and NOT A SINGLE THANK YOU!!!!!

Toby: So Rami and I hatched a plan……………..

Rami: He ordered us to fetch him a snack of baked potato soup…………..

Toby: And that’s when Rami and I snuck into the kitchen, and put 7 drops of powerful laxative in the soup………

Rami: And just one drop would be enough to have you stuck in the bathroom for hours.

Toby: So we figured 7 drops would give us enough time to go down to the cargo bay and help our friends escape, but that wasn’t enough…………

Rami: We ended up locking ALL but 2 bathroom doors on the ship, and this has Burt frantically running up and down the halls for a bathroom with an unlocked door!!!!

Toby: Unfortunately, we were discovered, so we were unable to save the rest of our friends who were imprisoned in the jail cell………….

Rami: However we did get Burt back real good!!!!!  I had to use the bathroom myself to take a leak, and when I get out, Burt runs into me and nearly has a heart attack………………….

Toby: But that was no heart attack…………..LOL!!!!!!!!

Rami: I left the hallway smelling a nasty stench, and next I look out the window, and see Burt throwing his pants out of the bathroom window!!!! LOL!!!!!!

Toby: Next thing we know, Burt walks out of the bathroom wearing a dress!!!!!

Everyone then busts out laughing after hearing what happened to Burt.

Everyone: *BURSTS OUT LAUGHING*

Cam: THAT EXACT SAME THING HAPPENED IN THE 1984 FILM CHATTANOOGA CHOO CHOO!!!!!!  LOL!!!!!!

Princess Erika: EWWWWWWWWW, POOR GUY!!!!!!  HAVING TO WEAR A DRESS BECAUSE OF THAT!!!!!!!!  LOL!!!!!!!  HE'S GONNA BE FINED FOR POLLUTING MY WATER THOUGH!!!!!! LOL!!!!

Jim West: OOOOOOH MAAAAAAANNNN!!!!!!!  THAT’S A GOOD ONE!!!!!!  LOL!!!!!

Artemus Gordon: I WISH I WOULD HAVE SEEN THAT!!!!!!! LOL!!!!!!

Poe: I WAS WONDERING WHY HE WAS WEARING A DRESS!!!!! LOL!!!!!

Finn: NOW IT ALL MAKES SENSE!!!!!! LOL!!!!!

Ramsley: THAT WAS A MEAN PRNAK YOU GUYS PULLED!!!!! LOL!!!!!

Helmsley: BUT HE DESERVED IT!!!!!!  LOL!!!!!

Johnny 5: I’M SO GLAD I DON’T HAVE THESE PROBLEMS AS A ROBOT!!!!! LOL!!!!!

Even Herbie was cracking up as he gave a loud honk.

Herbie: BEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEP!!!!!!!!!!

Rami: Anyways, we get discovered, and are on the run from Blue Beard and his pirates…………..

Johnny 5: The guard Hashimoto walks away, and that’s when Herbie miraculously uses his wheels like a set of casters, gets out of his wheel chocks, and rolls over to the jail cell.  He then tells everyone goodbye, and promises to come back and rescue everyone, and of course find Cam.  Then he drives off………….

Toby: Rami and I make our way to the bowels of the ship, and make our way to a room with an emergency escape pool.  Low and behold Cam, we bump into your car just as he was about to dive under water.

Rami: He lets us in, before rolling up his windows, and takes a dive under water.

Toby: Once we break the surface, your car takes off, and we’re plowing through the water at a good WHOPPING 75 miles an hour like a speed boat.

Rami: That’s 3 times as fast as the RLS Legacy was traveling, so we were able to make it to Eatonville in no time flat.

Toby: Once we hit dry land, we refuel, and we take off for here.

Cam: That’s about the time Erika and I look around Elbe, make our way into a train yard, and find our locomotive…………………..

Princess Erika: Then we bump into our friends Jim West and Artemus Gordon.

Jim West: And the funny thing is, my girlfriend Belle and I were supposed to be having “FUN” up in the water tower by the warehouse when I notice General Ren’s boys bring an empty horse cart and load it up with liquid nitro……………

Artemus Gordon: Shortly after I was looking for thugs of General Ren when I find the runaway horse cart full of nitro…………..

Cam, Princess Erika, Jim West, and Artemus Gordon then go on about their journey through the Frozen Tundra, and how they were able to take out Blue Beard’s ship with the cannon upon their arrival into Eatonville.

Artemus Gordon: With just enough modifications done, I was able to aim the canon accurately enough to land several hits to Captain Blue Beard’s ship!!!!

Poe: And while we watched all of our friends get loaded onto a freight train………..

Finn: Blue Beard has us stay behind, and orders us to gather up more loot…………..

Ramsley: But then we watch his ship take damage………….

Helmsley: Before we know it, the ship is sinking……………..

Cam: Then when we arrive, Jim West and Artemus Gordon set to work and have Blue Beard and his pirates arrested!!!

Ramsley: And we were worried about Princess Erika being captured after hearing Captain Blue Beard’s orders from Ren.

Helmsley: But our worry was put to rest when we see you safe and sound with your brother aboard our train.

Princess Erika: Also Sammy sent out a warning to our army in the underwater Kingdom, so they would have been prepared for a fight.

Cam: Shortly after we regroup, we’re back on our way, and I’m then informed that you guys and Herbie got away…………

Rami: Yep, and that’s when we received your phone call!!!!

Cam: However we had to deal with quite the pursuit with those thugs…………….

Cam then informs Rami and Toby about the chase with their locomotive and the other train, and Johnny 5 informs everyone on how he pissed off Burt and Mr. Prindle to the point that he got red lighted and thrown off.
Then the story concludes with the enemy train being crashed, Burt, Hashimoto, and Mr. Prindle being arrested, and the crew of the other train being taken to safety all before dinner……………..

Princess Erika: Now we’re all here at this meeting!!!!

Cam: And now if I remember correctly, that air-ship took our friends to the castles of the koopalings, and the order was decided on who goes where by a game of roulette?

Rami: That’s what we heard after Burt got out of the bathroom……………..

Toby: And it’s how we were found out……………

Rami: Because we were eavesdropping on their plans with our ears against the doors of the meeting hall……………..

Toby: And that’s when the alarm was sounded, and why we had no choice but to run………..

Rami: We knew we had to come here to think of a plan, and thankfully it worked out because little did we know that we’d run into you guys again!!!

Jim West: Gordon and I found out another thing……………….

Artemus Gordon: Because they had to play their game of roulette on such short notice, and in as quick of time as possible, they had forgotten on who they selected to go where, BUT…………..

Jim West: We were told that ONLY 6 of the 7 castles will have the prisoners that you’re looking for!!!!

Artemus Gordon: One holds a vital treasure, and that vital treasure is your key in order to advance further to defeating King Drago and Queen Xayide……………..

Jim West: They wouldn’t say which castle that treasure is being held, but I’d say that should be the first castle one of us goes to in order to carry out the rescue mission…………….

Artemus Gordon: half way through the castle realm, there are 2 twin castles……………..the only way to defeat their bosses is to take em out simultaneously………………….

Jim West: And just when you think Ludwig Von Koopa is the final boss before the actual FINAL BOSSES King Drago and Queen Xayide……………………NAHHHH-AHHHHHH!!!!!  THINK AGAIN!!!!!!!!!!

Artemus Gordon: Guarding the gate leading to King Drago and Queen Xayide’s Castle, is a HUGE tower, and on top of that tower lies a beacon…………..

Jim West: In order to advance passed the tower, you have to light the beacon, and in order to light the beacon……………….

Artemus Gordon: You have to take out King Helmaroc The Demon Bird………………

Cam: So it seems to me that from here on it’s all fortresses and boss fights…………….

Jim West: I’m afraid so……………….

Ramsley: Camaro, you’re the chosen one from what I hear……………..

Helmsley: Because King Arthur chose you to wield the Legendary Sword Lancelot The Gorean Blade, aka Excalibur.

Poe: This means, you should be the one to carry out this task in taking down the bosses…………………….

Finn: And rescuing the prisoners being held in the Koopalings castles……………..

Johnny 5: It only makes sense……………

Rami: Toby and I are only racing drivers…………

Toby: And neither of us have experience in combat……………

Jim West: Artemus Gordon and I are only Police Officers for the Magic Kingdom’s Police Force………….

Artemus Gordon: And we’re trained to deal with criminals; NOT take on high-level monsters like the Koopalings or a Demon Bird…………..

Ramsley: And it’s our job to protect the Princess, but…………..

Helmsley: Taking on high-level monsters is out of our job description and capabilities…………….

Poe: It’s the same on our end, except our princesses are being held prisoners in one of the castles…………

Finn: And we’re as good as dead if we tried to take on the Koopalings…………..

Johnny 5: You Cam are a Level 10 Black Belt in both Karate and Kung Fu, as well as a skilled racing driver, high level fencer, as well as the chosen one to wield the Legendary Sword.  Therefor this task is yours to complete……………………..Only you can take on this task……………………..

Poe: It makes perfect sense to me!!!!!

Finn: I’m all for it!!!!

Jim West: Hey, I say it’s our best shot!!!!

Artemus Gordon: I’m in favor of this plan!!!!

Rami: As am I!!!!

Toby: Me too!!!!

Ramsley: You’re the best bet we’ve got in completing the task!!!!!

Helmsley: It was you who got everyone together here, so it’s only right that you take on this task!!!!!

Cam: Okay!!!!!  I get your point………………however I’ll need a good, fast, strong, and powerful car to take me, and help me get the tasks done in as little time there is left………………And I know Herbie will not let me down!!!!!
He and I will set out first thing ASAP tomorrow morning at 10:00 a.m. sharp!!!!
I need all of you to stay behind here, and wait for the beacon to be lit……………Once it’s lit, we all storm King Drago and Queen Xayide’s Castle!!!!!!

Princess Erika: NOOOOOOO!!!!!!!!  I WON’T ALLOW IT!!!!!!!!  I FORBID IT!!!!!!

Cam: But……………

Princess Erika: NO ANDS IFS OR BUTS CAM!!!!!  AS THE LAST ROYAL PRINCESS STILL STANDING BY ROYAL DECREE YOU ARE NOT TAKING ON THIS TASK!!!!!!  I FORBID IT!!!!!!

Ramsley: But your highness, he’s our only shot at…………….

Princess Erika: NOOOOO!!!!!!  I WON’T LET IT HAPPEN; I FORBID IT!!!!!

Helmsley: Please understand my lady that Cam is…………….

Princess Erika: THE ANSWER IS STILL NO!!!!!

Herbie: BEEEEEEP, BEEEEEEEEP, BEEEEEEEEEP, BEEEEEEEEEP, BEEEEEEEEEEEP, BEEEEEEEP, BEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEP!!!!!

Princess Erika: I HEARD YOU HERBIE, AND THE ANSWER IS STILL NO!!!!!
There’s got to be some other way……………..

Jim West: Darling……………there is no other way………….

Artemus Gordon: We heard it from Burt and Mr. Prindle during interrogation…………in order for each prisoner to be released, a Koopaling must be defeated, and none of us here are a match for them except for Cam………………

Poe: He took on both King and Queen Gohma in the Dungeon of the Town Of Beginnings……………

Rami: Not to mention he kicked our asses in the Magic Kingdom Grand Prix………….

Finn: He fought off Ren’s Army of enemy fighters through Hilawe Gorge on the Island of Isla Nublar…………….

Jim West: He also got us through the Frozen Tundra……………

Ramsley: He reunited all of us back together here……………….

Artemus Gordon: We may not have gotten your friends back, but we made it here, and successfully got those thugs Burt, Hashimoto, and Prindle arrested because of him……………..

Helmsley: And if he could get us this far, there’s no doubt that he can complete this task…………

Princess Erika: BUT HE HAD HELP!!!!!  AND NEED I REMIND YOU CAM, THAT YOU ALMOST DIED IF IT WASN’T FOR ME?????!!!!!!!  I ALMOST LOST YOU ONCE, AND I DON’T WANT TO LOSE YOU AGAIN………………ESPECIALLY NOW THAT I KNOW YOU’RE MY BIG BROTHER!!!!!!!!

A few tears poured down Princess Erika’s face………….she knew it was inevitable, but she couldn’t find it in her heart to let her brother go in fear of losing him again…………

Princess Erika: We were just getting to know each other…………and now that I found you, I CAN’T LOSE YOU AGAIN, I JUST CAN’T!!!!!!!

Cam: But Sweetie……………..

Princess Erika: I CAN’T LET YOU GO DIE OUT THERE!!!!!!!!!

Princess Erika sat in Cam's lap and wrapped her arms around him in a tight hug as she cried her eyes out on him……………..

Princess Erika: I WON’T LET YOU GO……………….I WON’T LET YOU!!!!!!!!!!

Cam: But Sweetie……………I……………

Princess Erika: I CAN'T LET YOU GO CAM......................

Cam: I will not be alone this time…………..I may have been alone during my fight with Captain Blue Beard, but I won’t be alone this time…………….don’t you see, I’ll have Herbie.  He’s been through so many hardships in his life, and no doubt WAY MORE than I have!!!!!  He came close to death numerous times like the time he tried to jump off the Golden Gate Bridge, as well as the time his Evil Twin Horace literally destroyed him to a pile of scrap metal, then there was the time HE was forced to walk the plank and dumped into the sea near South America, then there was the Alonzo Hawk who hot wired him in an attempt to kidnap him, but Herbie outsmarted him, and got away!!!!!  And Uncle Randy kidnapped Herbie and literally had him put in the car smasher when Jim Douglas found him just in the nick of time!!!!!  Then Herbie wound up in a demolition derby, and was almost crushed by a monster truck when his former owner Maggie Peyton found him, and he ended up winning the derby……………….Herbie has been there, done it, and has survived!!!!!!  And I know he won’t let me down because I believe in him, and he always come through for his owners.  
Now please know if I have Herbie for a partner during this task, I’m in good company, so you have no reason to be too worried………………

Princess Erika: BUT WHAT IF SOMETHING BAD HAPPENS TO THE 2 OF YOU???!!!!!  AND I’M NOT JUST ANYBODY WHOSE WORRIED ABOUT YOU, I’M YOUR LITTLE SISTER!!!!!!  And little sisters don’t wanna lose their big brothers………………..I LOVE YOU WAY TOO MUCH TO LOSE YOU AGAIN!!!!!

Cam: I have a fall back plan for that…………….If any of you don’t hear from me by tomorrow night, then come after me………………….

Everyone: You got it!!!!

Johnny 5: You can count on us commander!!!!!

Cam: Commander, I kinda like the sound of that!!!!

Princess Erika: BUT I CAN’T LOSE YOU AGAIN!!!!!!!!!!

Cam: You never will Sweetie, because no matter what happens, I’m always with you…………………….

Cam gently wipes Princess Erika’s tears and gives her a gentle kiss on the forehead.

Cam: I promise you, I’m gonna be alright.  Once I release the first prisoner, that person will be my fighting partner for the rest of the task………………

Johnny 5: Your best bet would be to partner up with Wendy, since you 2 share a special bond that’s almost as strong as the one you have with your sister.

Poe: Now that I think about it, you and Wendy do have a special bond!!!!

Finn: And she’s a powerful wind magic user, and has been nicknamed the Maiden Of The Sky because of her powerful magic.  She will MOST DEFINITELY be a good choice for a partner…………..

Cam: However it’s the luck of the draw on who I find first, but whoever I release first, I will team up with, and won’t be in this battle alone anymore……………..

Princess Erika: Promise?

Cam: I promise………………..And as soon as this is all over, and we return to our world, I’m all yours for as long as you like………………………….

Princess Erika: Pinky swear?

Cam: Pinky Swear!!!

Cam and Princess Erika hook their pinkies and Princess Erika holds Cam to his promise.

Princess Erika: I’m holding you to that………………

Cam: Once the beacon is lit, the rest of you will join me in this fight, and I promise you sweetie, you me, and Troy will all take on the final bosses King Drago, and Queen Xayide………………..

Princess Erika: Okay…………….

Princess Erika then wraps her arms around Cam again, gives him another big hug, and gives him a gentle kiss on the cheek as Cam finishes wiping her tears.

Cam: I promise, it’s gonna be alright sweetie…………..

Princess Erika: Promise me Cam, Promise me you’ll make it out alive…………

Cam: You can count on it!!!!

Herbie: BEEEP, BEEEP!!!!

Cam: And Herbie seconds that!!!

Then out of nowhere Princess Erika’s tummy begins to rumble……………

Princess Erika: *Blushes Bright Pink*  I’m sorry…………..I am kinda hungry!!!!!  *Giggles*  Getting worried kinda works up my appetite………..*Giggles*

Rami: No worries young lady, I’m getting kinda hungry myself.

Cam: It seems none of has us eaten all day, so let’s order our food………….

Then the waiter comes over to take orders.

Waiter: Good evening everyone, are you all ready to order?

Cam: Yep!!!!

Everyone then enjoys a good meal before returning to the suite for the night.
Princess Erika removes her make-up, fake eyelashes, hair bow, hair scrunchy, tiara, socks, shoes, and cardigan before placing them back in her item storage.
Princess Erika attempts to climb into bed, but the large California King Sized 4 poster bed was too high off the ground for a little girl at 4 ft 9 inches tall and weighing in at only 78 pounds like Princess Erika.

Princess Erika: Hey Cam, do you mind helping me into bed please?  It’s a little too high off the ground for me!!!

Cam: You’re a cheerleader and a gymnast back in the real world!!!!  So don’t you use your upper body strength for stuff like this?  Besides you're the head flyer on the cheer squad.  LOL!!!!

Princess Erika: CAM??!!!!  I’m not that here in this world!!!!  Although I’m strong swimmer, I’m not used to hiking into a bed this high off the ground, so please.......................help me?????!!!!!!

Cam gently pushes up on Princess Erika’s cute little butt, and helps her into bed causing her to blush and giggle.

Princess Erika: *Blushes Bright Pink* Cam, you pervert!!!! *Giggles*

Cam: Sorry, couldn’t help it, you’re just too cute!!!!!  By the way, you’re one to talk because you’re a pervert too!!!!!  Also it was the easiest way for me to help you................

Princess Erika: *Blushes Brighter Pink*  Thanks Cam!!!!  Also you know I don’t mind.  Giggles*  And you’re right, I’m also a pervert!!!! LOL!!!

Cam changes out of his outfit and puts on Jean shorts and a T-Shirt before climbing into bed as well.
He then turns on the T.V. and one of his favorite T.V. Shows Brother Vs. Brother is on.

Cam: AWESOME!!!!  Let’s see which of the Property Brothers wins this challenge!!!!!

Princess Erika: WOW!!!!  They’re identical twins just like you and Troy!!!!!

Cam: Yep, though I don’t think we’d fair well in a challenge like this!!!! LOL!!!

As Cam climbs into bed, Princess Erika tackles him, lifts up her skirt, straddles her legs on both sides of him, and sits on top of his stomach.

Cam: I should have known you'd do this.

Princess Erika: *Giggles* Do I do this a lot in the real world????!!!!

Cam: Yep, ALL the time!!!!!

Princess Erika: Oh? *Giggles*

Cam: Yep, you do this so I'm unable to get away from you, and so you can keep me under your control!!!!

Princess Erika: I am the last princess still standing after all, and you are a knight, so you need to follow my orders!!!! *Giggles*

Cam gently reaches up to Princess Erika's face, and gently strokes her face causing her to smile brightly.

Princess Erika: *Giggles* You're always so sweet, even when I'm being a bossy brat!!!! *Giggles*

Cam: It's  because you're so precious to me, and mean more to me than words can describe.
Also, it's cute seeing you play like this because it's the only way you know how to show dominance over me.

Princess Erika: *Giggles*  You kinda make a good point there, and I find it fun to show dominance over you since you're A LOT bigger than me, so I gotta find a way somehow!!! *Giggles*

Princess Erika then leans forward and gives Cam a gentle kiss on the forehead, and begins playing with his hair.

Princess Erika: I've always wanted a big brother and that wish came true................

Princess Erika then leans over again, and gives Cam a gentle kiss on the cheek.............

Princess Erika: You are the most important person in the world to me, and I promise to do what I can to protect you, like a little sister should. *Giggles*

Cam continued stroking Princess Erika's smiling face when Princess Erika held his hand in place on her face.

Princess Erika: Your hands are so warm and gentle Cam................and yet so strong................I love it!!!!!

Cam: And you have such a beautiful face with an even more beautiful smile.

Princess Erika: *Blushes Bright Pink* You're so sweet Cam!!!!  And no matter what happens, you'll always be number #1 in my heart!!!!

Princess Erika then gets off Cam, and slides under the covers.  She then gently holds Cam’s hand before snuggling up with him like any little sister would.

Princess Erika: Cam??....................

Cam: Yes sweetie?

Princess Erika: We’ll always be best friends forever, won’t we??!!!

Cam: Of course………………

Princess Erika: Cam?.............

Cam: Yes?

Princess Erika: Can I keep you?

Cam: Sure.

Princess Erika: Cam, I love you……………

Cam: I love you too sweetie…………

Cam then gives Princess Erika a gentle kiss on the forehead before she gives a good yawn, and falls fast asleep…………….

Cam: Sleep well Little Sis!

Down in the Lobby, Artemus Gordon, Rami, and Toby were making a few minor modifications to Herbie.
They swapped out his stock seats for the high bucket racing seats, but were sure to rein-stall the seat heaters back into the seats.
Artemus Gordon installed the silver fuel filler cap just behind Herbie’s front right fender to make refueling quick and easy.

Artemus Gordon: That ought to do it!!!!

Rami: You should be good to go for your long day ahead of you tomorrow buddy!!!!

Toby: You sleep well Pal!!!!  We’re all counting on you and Cam to pull through.

Herbie: Beep, Beep!!!!


To Be Continued………………

Chapter 33

The First Fortress

Early the next morning, a final meeting took place inside the presidential suite’s main living room.  Everyone was waiting anxiously for Cam and Princess Erika to come out of the master suite.

Cam: Good morning everyone!!!!

At last Cam arrived and was fully showered, dressed, and ready to go over things one final time.

Ramsley: Perfect!!!!  Now we just need her Royal Highness………..

Princess Erika: Here I am!!!!

Princess Erika soon joined in, also fully showered, dressed back in her beautiful green skirted swimsuit, and ready to help g over things a final time.

Helmsley: Great, now that everyone’s accounted for except the car, we can go over everything one last time.

Herbie extended his retractable antenna from the lobby below, and his radio signal was just strong enough to listen in on the last meeting.

Princess Erika: So the plan is for Cam to fight it alone just once……………

Cam: Maybe twice if the treasure is guarded in the first castle…………….

Princess Erika: But once you rescue the first prisoner, no ands, ifs, or buts, you team up with that person and fight as a team from then on, okay?

Cam: Yep, that’s the plan!!!!!  I’m not sure if we have a prisoner in the first castle or not until the second castle, but judging from the map and the information that we were given, our closest castle is Morton Koopa Jr.’s Castle.

Johnny 5: According to my calculations, he’s only about 75 miles away.

Cam: That’s an easy 1 hour drive in Herbie!!!!!!

Jim West: That doesn’t sound too bad!!!!

Johnny 5: Roads are paved too, so even better yet!!!!  Wendy’s Castle is a full 100 miles from Morton’s, but she’d still be the next closest castle.

Cam: No problem!!!!

Johnny 5: Then another 35 miles away lies Lemmy’s Castle.

Cam: AWESOME!!!!!  I can have the first 3 knocked out in no time flat!!!!!

Johnny 5: Next lies the twin Castles of Iggy and Larry Koopas!!!!

Jim West: And Remember the bosses have to be knocked out and defeated at the EXACT SAME TIME PRECISELY!!!!!

Artemus Gordon: Otherwise one boss will revive itself and the other will be revived shortly after, and the challenge starts all over again.  You could be fighting a Koopaling for HOURS unless good team work is put to use with you and the other prisoner that you choose to fight with.

Cam: Another part of the plan is, if I’m able to free Troy early on in the game, I’ll send him straight back here to take my place as master and commander to lead you guys into battle once the beacon has been lit.

Poe: Sounds solid!!!!

Finn: Your last place to refuel is located JUST AFTER Lemmy Koopa’s castle, and for some strange reason, the paved road ends…………….

Ramsley: You have to drive on a dirt road through a dark woods known as The Black Forest for a good 30 miles before you’re once again back on a paved road.

Johnny 5: The Twin Castles are 45 miles from The Black Forest, and then after the twins lies Roy O. Koopa’s, which is thankfully only another additional 20 miles away……….but……….

Artemus Gordon: It’s a full 150 miles from Roy O. Koopa’s Castle to Ludwig Von Koopa’s Castle.

Cam: HOLY SHIT!!!!  That’ll be a lot of driving, and I’m gonna need all the spare cans of fuel I can get with no refueling stations around.

Rami: Toby and I were able to get a total of 30 cans of fuel while we began repairing our cars last night, and the plan is to split em up 10 each.

Cam: That’s perfect!!!!

Toby: We can only hope our cars can hold off long enough to reach King Drago’s Castle given their lousy fuel mileage!!!!

Johnny 5: King Helmaroc’s Tower connects directly to Ludwig Von Koopa’s Castle, so once Ludwig is defeated……………..

Cam: It’s a fight with King Helmaroc The Demon Bird……………

Artemus Gordon: But once you defeat King Helmaroc……………..

Poe: Light That Beacon at once!!!!!

Cam: I have no idea how much I’ll be able to knock out today, but I should be able to at least clear Lemmy Koopa’s Castle and make it passed The Black Forest.

Princess Erika: Be sure to call me, and keep me updated okay?  My biggest fear of all is losing you………….

Cam: That won’t happen; I can promise you that!!!!

Helmsley: But once you rescue Troy, send him here to us at once!!!!

Ramsley: At which time we can finalize everything with him!!!!

Cam: Sounds good!!!!

Artemus Gordon: It’s now 9:25 a.m………………..

And just then room service arrives with breakfast.

Cam: Perfect Timing!!!!

Princess Erika: You’ll need something for the road!!!!

Cam: You got that right!!!!

Johnny 5: Here you go, Your Highness!!!!  Your Blue Swim Attire is clean and ready for use once again!!!!

Princess Erika: Thank you so much Johnny 5!!!!

Johnny 5: Glad to be of service my lady!!!!

Jim West: Alright everyone, lets dig in!!!!

Everyone then digs in and enjoys their breakfast.  At 9:45 a.m. sharp everyone makes their way down to the lobby, and out to the Hotel’s entrance where Herbie was waiting as was another familiar face.

Dorion: I’m glad I found you!!!!

Haji: It took us a long time to track you down, but we did it!!!!

Cam: DORION????!!!!!  HAJI??????!!!!!!

Princess Erika: WAIT, CAM???!!!!  YOU KNOW THESE 2?????!!!!!!

Cam: Of course!!!!!  They’re the finest weapon forgers and blade smiths in the ENTIRE Magic Kingdom.

Dorion: We have your sword right here!!!!!

Haji then opens up the item storage, selects The Legendary Sword, Lancelot The Gorean Blade along with its brand new sheath, and hands it to Cam.

Haji: Here you go!!!!!

Cam: WOOOOOOOAAAAAAAAAAHHHHH!!!!!!!!

Princess Erika: OH MY GOSH; THAT’S IT?????!!!!!!!  WOOOOOOOOWWWWWW!!!!!!!  FOR A SWORD IT'S BEAUTIFUL!!!!

Poe: I NEVER THOUGHT I WOULD EVER LAY MY EYES ON…………….

Finn: HOLY SHIT; THAT’S…………………..

Ramsley: THE LEGENDARY SWORD……………

Helmsley: LANCELOT THE GOREAN BLADE……………..

Johnny 5: ALSO KNOWN AS EXCALIBUR FOR SHORT……………

Cam then unsheathes the legendary sword and everyone is completely blown away by its beauty………………….

Jim West: HOLY COW!!!!!

Artemus Gordon: I’VE SEEN IMPRESSIVE SWORDS, BUT THIS IS A WHOLE NEW LEVEL!!!!!

Rami: THAT IS THE MOST BEAUTIFUL SWORD I’VE EVER SEEN!!!!

Toby: I LOVE THE RED THAT RUNS DOWN THE CENTER OF THE BLADE AS WELL AS THE BLUE AND GOLD HANDLE WITH ALL THE AMAZING RED, PURPLE, AND ORANGE JEWELS!!!!!

Cam: THIS THING IS HEAVY!!!!!  TOO HEAVY FOR ME TO HOLD WITH ONE HAND FOR A LONG PERIOD OF TIME!!!!!!

Dorion: It’s a VERY powerful sword now that it’s been reforged……………..

Cam: It’s just as beautiful as I remember it!!!!

Haji: Reforging all the broken pieces back together was a challenge…………..

Dorion: And it took us longer than we’d originally hoped, but we got it done, and now it’s ready!!!!

Cam: I’ll save it for the final battle when I REALLY need it!!!!

Cam then resheaths the sword and puts it back in his item storage.

Haji: We also made a second copy of The Night Sky Sword for your brother!!!!

Dorion: And we made a bunch more weapons!!!!

Cam: My friends will be needing em by the time I light the Beacon after I take down Helmaroc The Demon Bird.
However, I need to ask one more favor of you 2………………

Haji: And what would that be?

Cam: Can you please stay here and help my friends?  We’re in a bit of a bind since The Magic Kingdom is under attack, and we’re gonna need all the help we can get to defeat King Drago and Queen Xayide!!!!  Not to mention we’ll need 2 master smiths to forge the weapons, so we all need you here with us!!!!
Will you please help out?

Dorion: Well, it’s a VERY LONG WAYS back to the Town Of Beginnings………………

Haji: And we came all this way to give you your weapons, but…………..

Dorion: It seems since that we’re here, we might as well be of use here while we can.

Haji: Everyone in the Town Of Beginnings is almost too broke for our weapons anyway………….

Dorion: So, we’ll gladly accept your request and help out!!!!

Princess Erika: THANK YOU!!!!!

Cam: Thank you so much!!!!!!

Princess Erika: We REALLY appreciate it!!!!!

Cam: This is my little sister, Princess Erika of the Underwater Castaway Sapphire Kingdom.

Princess Erika: Last Royal Princess still standing!!!!  *Giggles*

Dorion: It’s an honor to meet you your royal highness!!!!!

Haji: You are more beautiful than either of us could have imagined………….

Dorion: It’s no wonder it was a crime to mention your name in the Town Of Beginnings!!!!

Princess Erika: *Blushes Bright Pink* OH PLEASE, STOP, YOU’RE MAKING ME BLUSH!!!!!  *GIGGLES*  Also there’s no need to be so formal!!!! *Giggles*

Dorion: IT’ll be a GREAT HONOR to serve you your highness!!!!

Haji: Anything you need, just let us know!!!!!

Princess Erika: You 2 are too kind!!!!

Artemus Gordon: Nice to meet you too!!!!  I’m Artemus Gordon!!!  A police officer and inventor!!!

Cam: OH YES!!!!  You guys should team up!!!!!  Goodness knows what kind of monster weapon you 3 can build while working together!!!!

Dorion: That sounds awesome!!!!

Haji: We could use the help of a third person!!!

Artemus Gordon: I have this cannon here, which I was able to advance, but maybe we can make it something more!!!!!

Artemus Gordon gets out his item storage gun, and selects the cannon.

Finn: DUDE!!!!!!  IS THAT THE SAME CANNON WE USED IN THE HELICOPTER????!!!!!!

Cam: It sure is!!!!

Poe: AND IT’S THE SAME ONE WE HAD ON OUR TRAIN!!!!!

Cam: YEP!!!!  Now lets see what these 3 can do with it!!! LOL!!!!

Ramsley: Well, it’s 9:55 Cam, so I think it’s time you should get going.

Herbie: BEEEP, BEEEP!!!!

Herbie starts up his engine and opens his door.  Cam notices the high bucket racing seats, and the exterior silver fuel filler cap.

Cam: HERBIE YOU LOOK AWESOME!!!!!  Just as you did in your 1980, Herbie Goes To Monte Carlo, film!!!!

Toby: We swapped out the seats, while Gordon added the exterior fuel filler to make it easier for you to refuel.

Rami: But we made sure to keep the seat heaters for you!!!!

Cam: THANK YOU SO MUCH YOU GUYS!!!!

Toby: Anytime buddy!!!!

Cam: Well sweetie, it’s time for me to go………..

Princess Erika: Okay……………..

Cam wraps his arms around Princess Erika and gives her a big hug as tears pour down her cheeks……………..

Cam: I promise, I’ll be just fine this time………….and once I light the beacon, you join in on the fight……………

Princess Erika: Okay………………And remember, you said you’re all mine once we return to the real world, right???!!!!

Cam: Yes!!!!

Princess Erika then walks up to Herbie and gives him an order.

Princess Erika: Promise me Herbie, promise me you’ll take good care of my big brother……………he means the whole world to me, and I can’t lose him……………As the last Royal Princess still standing, by Royal Decree, I order you to take good care of him and protect him for me…………………can you do that?

Herbie: BEEEP, BEEEP!!!!!

Princess Erika then gives Herbie a big hug on the front left hand side fender and gives a gentle kiss on the bonnet as she begins to cry……………

Princess Erika: Promise me Herbie…………..Promise me you won’t let anything happen to him……………..

Cam: Ramsley, Helmsley, Poe, Finn, Jim, Gordon, Johnny, Rami, Toby, Dorion, and Haji, as Princess Erika’s older brother and chief and commander of this operation, I need you to promise me one thing…………………….please take care of my little sister.  She means more to me than words can describe………………………..the last thing I want is for her to get hurt, so please take care of her, and protect her from danger………………

Poe: You got it chief!!!!

Finn: Roger commander!!!

Jim West: On your orders sir!!!!

Artemus Gordon: You have my word your honor!!!!

Rami: You got it my friend!!!!

Toby: Anytime Buddy!!!!

Dorion: No problem!!!!

Haji: Yes Sir!!!!

Johnny 5: You got it Master!!!!

Ramsley: We wouldn’t have it any other way commander!!!!

Helmsley: It’s our job anyways, so you have our word!!!!

Cam: Thank you!!!!

Everyone saluted Cam, and Cam saluted everyone back as Herbie gently stroked Princess Erika’s face with his retractable antenna.

Princess Erika: You 2 be safe okay?

Herbie: Beep, Beep!!!

Princess Erika gave Cam one last big hug, and gently kissed him on the cheek for the final time.

Princess Erika: Promise me Cam, promise me you’ll be safe…………..

Cam: I promise sweetie………..

Princess Erika: Break my heart, and I’ll hate you forever!!!!!

Cam: Understood!!!!

Princess Erika: No matter what happens, you'll always be number #1 in my heart................win or lose, you're my hero...................

Cam gently wiped Princess Erika’s tears before giving her a final kiss on the forehead.

Princess Erika: I Love you so much Cam…………..

Cam: I love you too Sweetie…………

Princess Erika: Remember, best friends forever no matter what happens…………….

Cam: Wouldn’t have it any other way………………

Cam and Princess Erika hooked pinkies for the last time before they both separate.  Cam then gets in Herbie, puts on his seat belt, depresses the clutch, and shifts Herbie into first gear before hammering his foot down on the throttle pedal.

Cam: LET’S GO HERBIE!!!!

Herbie: BEEEEEEEP, BEEEEEEEP!!!!!!!

Revving up his engine, Herbie takes off with his tires screaming as he pops a steep wheelie, and hits the highway.

RRROOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAARRRRRR-VRRRROOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOMMMMMMMMMMM!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!

https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=t5epioDFbyE

Toby: HOLY SHIT!!!!  THAT THING SURE CAN MOVE!!!!!!!

Rami: I BET YOU HE’S ALREADY GOING ABOUT 100 MILES AN HOUR RIGHT OUT THE DOOR!!!!!

Princess Erika: OH MY GOSH!!!!!  I FORGOT TO ORDER HIM NOT TO GO TOO FAST!!!!!!!  HOW FAST WERE YOU GUYS GOING IN THAT BIG RACE????!!!!!

Toby: I clocked out at 213 miles an hour in my Agera!!!

Rami: 215 miles an hour in my Mustang!!!!

Rami & Toby: But Cam clocked at 217 in that thing!!!!!  Not even Dino Brewster has clocked that high in the Grand Prix!!!!!!

Princess Erika: HE BETTER NOT GO THAT FAST ON MY WATCH!!!!!!

Thankfully Herbie wasn’t going anywhere near 200 miles an hour, but he was close to 100.
Herbie flew through tunnels, over bridges, drifted around tight bends, zoomed over mountains, through valleys, and soon it wasn’t long until the first castle came into view.

Cam: There it is Herbie………………..Morton Koopa Jr.’s Castle.
Now I’m not sure if Morton’s holding one of our friends hostage, or is guarding the treasure, but we’ll soon find out.

Herbie buckles down and drives faster as Morton Koopa Jr.’s Castle gets closer and closer into view.

Cam: I know this is the way it’s gotta be, everything depends on me…………………

The castle gets closer and closer into view until finally…………….

Cam: HERE WE ARE HERBIE!!!!

At last Herbie drives over the castle’s drawbridge, and parks right outside the front door………………..

Cam: Okay Herbie, I’ll go it alone from here………………

Herbie: Beep!!!!????

Cam: Be ready for a quick escape after I take down Morton.

Herbie: Beep, Beep!!!

The front door opens, and Cam walks in before the door slams shut.  This would be the first of 8 Castles that Cam would tackle on this quest, therefor he and Herbie would have a very long ways to go………….

Cam: It’s All Coming Down To This…………………….



To Be Continued………….

Chapter 34

Enter Morton’s Castle!!!!

https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=Ym8jpnIgC2s

https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=BSIjY7tsn44

Upon entering Morton’s Castle, Cam found himself in a room greeted by not so nice jumping thwimps.

Cam: UH-OH!!!  I should have known that I wouldn’t be getting such a warm welcome.

The small thwimps were jumping all over the place attempting to crush Cam, but Cam managed to evade them as her ran pasted them only to run up a staircase with large revolving ball & chains swinging from the ceiling attempting to knock him off the stair case.

Cam: UH-OH!!!!!  NOW BALL N CHAINS!!!!  There was no mention of this!!!!

Cam ran as fast as he could up the stair case, and just barely managed to avoid getting knocked down by the large ball and chains, only to wind up outside of a door on top of the stairs………….

Cam: This is starting to look familiar…………….

Cam then opens the door and arrives in a room where he sees a large thwomp slamming hard down on the ground before slowly lifting himself back up.

Cam: I Could have sworn that I’ve seen this before!!!!

Cam runs right underneath the thwomp just before he’s about to get crushed, makes his way over to another staircase only to see another thwomp slamming hard down onto the stair case before slowly lifting up.  He then finds out that on the other side of the thwomp, the staircase spans over a lava pit with fireballs shooting up from below.

Cam: OH BOY!!!!  This does not look good, yet it still looks all too familiar………………..

Cam runs up the stair case, right underneath the second thwomp, jumps over the large lava pit, and finds a third thwomp just on the other side of the pit.

Cam: OH GREAT!!!!!!  NOW ANOTHER THWOMP!!!!!

Cam runs under the third thwomp, and makes it up the rest of the staircase before opening up another door……………
This next room was going to be a challenge, because in order to advanced to the boss room, Cam had to jump onto multiple moving floor levels, and climb higher.

Cam: NOW I KNOW WHY THIS IS ALL TOO FAMILIAR!!!!  THIS IS MORTON’S CASTLE FROM SUPER MARIO WORLD ONLY IN 3D, BUT YOU PLAY IT IN 2D SET UP!!!!!
This first castle will be all too easy!!!!  However, it’s a good thing that I’m a level 10 black belt in Karate and Kung Fu, or this would be A LOT harder!!!!  LOL!!!!

Using his skills as a level 10 black belt, Cam jumped from platform to platform, and got higher and higher on the moving floors.

Cam: ALRIGHT!!!!!  Just about half way there…………………….

Cam came to what seemed like a high ledge with a giant trampoline on it and a koopa skeleton pacing himself back and forth right underneath a moving floor with a very small narrow opening.

Cam: AHHHH!!!!!  I gotta jump on the trampoline, but can only jump when the opening is above the trampoline, or I risk hitting my head, and I can’t have that.

Cam jumps onto the trampoline, and waits, but the koopa skeleton walks by and attempts to attack Cam.

Cam: OH GEEZE!!!!!

Cam jumps of the trampoline, and onto the skeleton knocking him out before he jumps back onto the trampoline as the small opening in the ceiling came closer and closer.
Judging his moment, as the small opening in the moving ceiling made its way over the trampoline, Cam jumped into the center of the trampoline, jumped high, and made it right through the center of the moving ceiling before climbing higher and higher up the castle’s tower.

Cam: ALRIGHT!!!!  Now it’s off to the boss room I go.

As Cam climbed higher and higher, he fought off more Koopa Skeletons, before making his way to a small ledge just below a moving ceiling that made clearances VERY tight!!!!

Cam: SHIT!!!!!  That opening is too small for me, but it wouldn’t be too bad for Erika, Wendy, or Carla in her cat form!!!  LOL!!!!!

Cam jumps up before rolling into a ball, and landing in the tight space before the moving floor.
When the opening in the moving ceiling makes its way over Cam, uncurls out of a ball, jumps up, and sees sharp spikes in the moving floors between the small platforms.

Cam: YIKES!!!!!  I CAN’T LAND ON THOSE GUYS!!!!!

Using his skills as a black belt, Cam rotates upside down, lands on a small platform on only his right hand before springing back into the air, and landing on another platform with his other hand, and springing back into the air again before landing on a large moving ledge coming out of the wall.

Cam: That was too close of a call!!!!

Cam then jumps higher and higher up the tower until he finally sees the doors to the boss room………………..

Cam: MORTON KOOPA JR., YOU ARE GOING DOWN!!!!!!

Cam jumps onto the floor where the doors to the boss room are, and runs right through the doors…………

Cam: THIS IS IT!!!!!!

Cam finds himself face to face with Morton Koopa Jr.

https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=YtcGdi73FRU

Morton Koopa Jr.: TOUGH LUCK VON LUDWIG, NONE OF YOUR FRIENDS ARE HERE!!!!!!  BUT IF YOU WANT THE TREASURE, GO AHEAD AND TRY JUMPING ON MY HEAD 3 TIMES!!!!  I’LL HAVE FUN WITH THIS!!!!!  GHA, HAAAAAAAA, HAAAAAAA, HAAAAAAAAAA!!!!!!

Morton Koopa Jr. charges at Cam only for Cam to jump high into the air, unsheathe his sword The Night Sky, land on top of Morton’s, and stab the Night Sky through the top of his head.

Morton Koopa Jr.: OOOOOOWWWWWWW!!!!!!!!!  I WAS NOT EXPECTING THIS!!!!!!

Cam jumped off of Morton Koopa Jr.’s head just before Morton started climbing the wall, and made his way to the ceiling.

Morton Koopa Jr.: I HAVE YOU NOW VON LUDWIG!!!!

Morton Koopa Jr. came slamming down hard like a brick, and was barreling straight towards Cam in an attempt to crush him, but Cam had other plans.

Cam: HAVEN’T YOU FORGOTTEN!!!!

Cam jumped out of the way as Morton hit the ground, and then he jumped on top of Morton’s head and stabbed him with the Night Sky once again.

Morton Koopa Jr.: OOOOOOOWWWWWWWW!!!!!!!!  I WAS TOO CARELESS!!!!!!!  THIS TIME I WON’T BE SO NICE!!!!!!

Cam jumped off of Morton’s head just as Morton ran faster for the wall, climbed up it hard and fast, and ran onto the ceiling.

Morton Koopa Jr.: THIS TIME YOU WILL NOT ESCAPE ME!!!!!!!!!

Despite his increased speed, it was the same as before, Morton came crashing down to the ground, and Cam jumped out the way and landed on his head for the third and final time.

Morton Koopa Jr.: WHAT???????????!!!!!!!!!!

Cam: ADIOS MORTON KOOPA!!!!!!!!

Cam then stabs his sword right into Morton’s head for the last time, killing him instantly…………………

Morton Koopa Jr.: NOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOO!!!!!!!!!!!  HOW CAN I LOOSE SO EASILY TO THIS WEEKLING?????????!!!!!!!!!!!!!!

Morton soon vanished into thin air without a trace as a large treasure chest slowly appeared out of the ground.

Cam: AWESOME!!!!!  THAT’S ONE KOOPALING DOWN AND NOW I HAVE THE TREASURE!!!!!!!

Cam soon opens up the large Treasure chest, and low and behold it’s the Legendary Megaton Hammer.

Cam: HOLY SHIT!!!!!  I CAN’T BELIEVE IT!!!!!!!!!

A letter appears next to the Megaton Hammer……………..

To whoever receives this treasure,

This is the Legendary Megaton Hammer!!!!!!  It was wielded by King Arthur during the dark times of the Horned King.  It was his key to making his way through fortresses and dungeons, as well as defeating some of the most evil enemies.  In order to advance any further, this Megaton Hammer will prove key into taking out some of the other Koopalings, as well as the Evil King Helmaroc The Demon Bird, and of course King Drago & Queen Xayide.  
This hammer is too heavy to be wielded by anyone, therefor only the chosen one who wields the Legendary Sword, shall wield the Megaton Hammer.  Please use it wisely, and I hope it becomes of good use………………

Cam: AWESOME!!!!!!!!

Then a loud rumbling sound was heard.

Cam: UH-OH!!!!!  With Morton defeated this castle is gonna come crashing down at any minute, so I gotta get outta here!!!!

Cam then put the Megaton hammer in his item storage, and made a run for it.  Outside the castle Herbie was waiting, and when he saw that the castle was collapsing, he started up his engine, revved it up, and opened up his ragtop canvas sunroof as Cam jumped out of a window.
Cam then landed safely in Herbie’s Driver’s seat, and the 2 drove off just in the nick of time.

Cam: AWESOME!!!!!  

Herbie: BEEP, BEEP!!!!!!

Herbie drives back onto the highway as Morton’s Castle comes crashing down to the ground, and is soon no more.
Cam then gets out his ipad, and calls Rami.

Back at the Tocoma Automotive Repair Shop, Rami was in the middle of making final repairs to his Ford Shelby Mustang Cobra GT when he got the call.  He saw that it was Cam and answered it right away.

Rami: HEY BUDDY!!!!!! GREAT TO HEAR FROM YOU!!!!!

Toby who was working on his Agera, put down his tools and made his way over to Rami’s Ipad when he heard the call.

Cam: HEY RAMI!!!!!  I HAVE AN UPDATE!!!!

Toby: AWESOME!!!!!!

Rami: Hold on, let me relay this call to our friends on the police force!!!!

Toby: I’ll Relay it to Johnny 5!!!!

Rami relays the call to Jim West and Artemus Gordon who were busy working on the cannon alongside Dorion & Haji who were forging weapns, while Toby relayed the call to Johnny 5.  Johnny 5 then relays the call to Poe & Finn, and Poe Finn relay the call to Ramsley & Helmsley, and they both relay the call to Princess Erika.  Princess Erika was swimming in the Haraseeket Inn’s Hotel Swimming pool trying to ease her worries when she heard her phone ring.

Princess Erika: OH MY GOSH, THAT MUST BE CAM!!!!!

Princess Erika then jumped out of the pool, made her way over to the cabana, and answered the call right away.

Johnny 5: HEY THERE MASTER VON LUDWIG & HERBIE!!!!

Jim West & Artemous Gordon: HEY CAMARO!!!!!

Dorion & Haji: I HEARD YOU HAVE AN UPDATE!!!!!

Poe & Finn: TELL US WHAT’S GOING ON!!!!

Ramsley & Helmsley: PRINCESS ERIKA HAS BEEN ANXIOUSLY AWAITING A CALL FROM YOU!!!!!

Princess Erika: AND HERE SHE IS!!!!!  *GIGGLES*

Cam: Well everyone, you asked for an update, and we have it……………
CASTLE 1 HAS BEEN DESTROYED!!!!!  I REPEAT CASTLE 1 HAS BEEN DESTROYED!!!!!  MORTON KOOPA JR. IS GONE, AND I HAVE THE TREASURE IN HAND!!!!!!

Everyone: AWESOME!!!!!!!

Princess Erika: YAY!!!!!!  WAY TO GO CAM!!!!!!

Dorion: What’s the treasure if I may ask?

Cam: It’s The Legendary Megaton Hammer.  IT’S WAY TOO BIG AND HEAVY for most people, and only the wielder of the Legendary Sword Lancelot can wield the Megaton Hammer.

Haji: Makes sense!!!

Cam: It was a key weapon for King Arthur during the dark ages of the Horned King.  It helped him defeat some of the fortresses and dungeons during his time as well as defeating some of his enemies who couldn’t be penetrated by blades.

Johnny 5: AND YOU HAVE IT????!!!!

Cam: I sure do, and with Morton gone, Herbie and I are now on our way to Castle Number #2, which is Wendy Koopa’s!!!!!
And look Erika, not a scratch on me!!!!

Princess Erika: I AM SO GLAD CAM!!!!!  HEARING ABOUT THIS HAS MADE ME SO HAPPY, AND HELPS PUT ME AT SOME EASE NOW THAT I KNOW YOU’VE TAKEN DOWN THE FIRST CASTLE, AND ARE STILL OKAY!!!!

Cam: Morton’s Castle was too easy, and Morton himself was a pushover!!!!!

Princess Erika: THAT’S GREAT!!!!  LET’S HOPE THE REST ARE LIKE THAT!!!!

Cam: We can’t get too excited because we have no idea what the other Koopalings are like, but we can assume that Koopaling Number #2 will also not be too difficult.
However Koopaling 3 maybe more challenging, then there’s the twin castles, then Roy, and then there’s Ludwig, so there’s a long road ahead.
But Hey, Castle 1’s destroyed, and it’s a start.

Princess Erika: I’m very happy to hear that you’re okay.  Just be careful in the rest of em, and BE SURE TO TEAM UP WITH THE FIRST PRISONER YOU RESCUE!!!!  I DO NOT want you going solo for the whole thing, so you be sure to team up with the first person you rescue okay?

Cam: You got it Sweetie!!!!!  That was the plan from the getgo, and I plan on sticking too it.

Princess Erika: GOOD!!!! :3

Artemus Gordon: How far are you now?

Cam: Herbie and I are now enroute to Wendy Koopa’s Castle, and we’ve got about 90 miles to go since we left Morton’s.

Jim West: AWESOME!!!!  YOU KEEP UP THE GOOD WORK MAN!!!!

Poe: YOU’RE GONNA PULL THROUGH WITH THIS, I JUST KNOW IT!!!!

Cam: DAMN RIGHT I WILL!!!!!  And when it’s time we’re all gonna take down King Drago & Queen Xayide!!!!!

Everyone: YEAH!!!!!!

Cam: Well, Herbie & I gotta go, but we’ll update you once the first prisoner has been rescued and Castle 2 has been destroyed!!!!

Everyone: SOUNDS GOOD!!!!!

Princess Erika: You be careful Cam, Okay???!!!!

Cam: You got it Sweetie!!!!

Princess Erika: That’s a good boy!!!!  Now take care Cam Sweetie, I love you!!!!  *Giggles*

Princess Erika blows kisses at Cam as he ends the call.

Cam: Alright!!!!  LET’S GO HERBIE!!!!

Herbie: BEEEEEP BEEEEEP!!!!!!!!

https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=YrRB8lcBlqc

With his tires screeching Herbie then pops a wheelie, and drives harder and faster down the road.
Herbie goes flying over bridges, roaring through tunnels, drifting around tight bends, and even goes air borne on some parts in the road as his speedometer reads a WHOPPING 150 Miles an hour.

Cam: WE’RE MAKING REALLY GOOD TIMING HERE HERBIE!!!!!

Herbie continued thundering down the road as the miles were soon vanishing before his eyes, and it isn’t long until Wendy’s Castle Comes Into view.

Cam: ALRIGHT!!!!!!  THERE’S CASTLE NUMBER #2!!!!!!

Herbie then winds through some more mountains, and flies through some more valleys, and even swims through some rivers before finally driving over the drawbridge leading to the Entrance Of Wendy Koopa’s Castle.

Cam: ALRIGHT!!!!!!

Herbie soon parks right outside the front door to Wendy’s Castle as Cam gets out.

Cam: Same as before Herbie!!!!  I believe once I release our friend whose being held in here, this castle will come crashing down just like Morton’s, and when that happens, be ready!!!

Herbie: BEEEP, BEEEP!!!!

Cam: Wish me luck Herbie!!!!

Cam then rushes through the front door of Wendy Koopa’s castle as another exciting a battle unfolds, and this time it’s a rescue mission unlike before.

Cam: Alright!!!!  This is my last solo mission, so I gotta make it count!!!!


To Be Continued………………

Chapter 35

Wendy Vs Wendy!!!!!

Wendy Marvell: YOU WILL NOT GET AWAY WITH THIS WENDY KOOPA!!!!!

Wendy Koopa: I THINK I JUST DID!!!!!  ALL OF YOUR FRIENDS ARE BEING HELD CATIVE BY MY BROTHERS; EXCEPT FOR THE 2 ROYAL PRINCESSES!!!!  THEY ARE BEING HELD CAPTIVE BY KING DRAGO & QUEEN XAYIDE!!!!!  BUT DON’T WORRY, YOU’LL ALL REACH THE SAME FATE AS YOUR FRIEND WHO WALKED THE PLANK BECAUSE YOU’LL BE JOINING HIM AS SOON AS GENERAL REN FINDS OUT WHERE YOU ALL ARE!!!!!!  BWAAAA, HAAAAAAAAAA, HAAAAAAAA, HAAAAAAAA, HAAAAAAAAAAAAAAA!!!!!!!

Wendy Marvell: IT DISGUSTS ME TO KNOW THAT WE SHARE THE EXACT SAME NAME!!!!!

Wendy Koopa: MY THOUGHT’S EXACTLY!!!!!  I MEAN NO ONE WILL EVER DESIRE SUCH A TINY AND NEEDY LITTLE RUNT LIKE YOU!!!!!  YOU’RE PRACTICALLY A PINT SIZED RAT STUCK IN A LARGE CAGE THERE!!!!! GAAAAAAAA, HAAAAAAAAAAA, HAAAAAAAAAAAAAA, HAAAAAAAAAAAAAA, HAAAAAAAAAAAAAA!!!!!!  IT’S SOOOO CUTE THAT IT’S ALMOST PATHETIC!!!!!!  HECK, YOU HAVEN’T EVEN GROWN YOUR BOOBS YET!!!!!!!  WHAT IS GENERAL REN THINKING IN WANTING SOMEONE LIKE YOU???  HE'S WAISTING HIS TIME!!!!!  NONE OF THE KOOPALINGS WOULD WANT YOU, AND HIGHLY DOUBT THAT YOUR FRIEND WHO WALKED THE PLANK WOULD EVEN WANT YOU!!!!!!!!  AHHHHHHH, HAAAAAAAAAAAA, HAAAAAAAAAAA, HAAAAAAAAAAAA, HAAAAAAAAAAAAA, HAAAAAAAAAAAAAA!!!!!!!

This made Wendy Marvell REALLY ANGRY!!!!  She was very sensitive about her height, and more sensitive about her breast size.  Also any mention of her dear friend Cam walking the plank was more than enough to send her over the edge.

Wendy Marvell: MEANIE!!!!!! THAT'S WHAT YOU ARE, AN EVIL CACKLING MEAN!!!!!!!!!!

Wendy Koopa: OH?????!!!!!! THERE'S NO NEED TO BE SUCH A SORE LOSER, NOW!!!!!

Wendy Marvell: YOU'RE A MEANNIE..................AND A JERK FACE!!!!!!!

Wendy Koopa: IT TAKES ONE TO KNOW ONE!!!!! LOL!!!!

Wendy Marvell: SMART ALEC!!!!!

Wendy Koopa: ANNOYING LITTLE BRAT!!!!

Wendy Marvell: NO I'M NOT!!!!

Wendy Koopa: YOU'RE SUCH A CRY BABY!!!!!

Wendy Marvell: NO I'M NOT!!!!

Wendy Koopa: YOU ARE TOO!!!!

Wendy Marvell: AM NOT!!!!

Wendy Marvell: I'D RATHER EAT MY FOOT!!!!

Wendy Koopa: YOU ARE GETTING ON MY LAST NERVE YOU LITTLE PUNK!!!!!  AS I'VE SAID BEFORE, NO ONE'S GONNA WANT A LITTLE CRY BABY WITH NO BOOBS!!!!!!

Wendy Marvell: THAT'S IT YOU CROSSED THE LINE!!!!!!!!  YOU'VE REALLY DONE IT THIS TIME YOU BIG EVIL CACKLING MEANIE!!!!!

Wendy Koopa: THANK YOU!!!!!  I TRY!!!!!!!  YOU ARE INCOMPARABLE TO ME!!!!!  MANY KOOPAS WOULD DIE JUST FOR A SECOND OF MY TIME, BUT YOU; YOU’RE A PATHETIC LITTLE RUNT!!!!!!

Wendy Marvell: HOW DARE YOU.......................SKY MAGIC ROOOOOOOOOOOOAAAAAAAAAAAARRRRRR…………………OWWWWWWWWW!!!!!!!

Wendy Marvell’s attempt to use her sky magic was useless because her prison cell would shock her, and syphon her magic putting her in extreme pain.

Wendy Marvell: OOOOOOWWWWWWWWWWWW!!!!!!!!!

Wendy Koopa: IT’S NO USE LITTLE GIRL!!!!!  THE MORE YOU USE YOUR MAGIC, THE MORE YOUR PRISON CELL WILL DRAIN YOU OR YOUR MAGIC POWER!!!!!!  NOW BE A GOOD LITTLE GIRL, AND STAY PUT!!!!!  IF YOU USE MAGIC, YOUR FATE IS ONLY THE MORE INEVITABLE!!!!!!

Wendy Marvell: I'M SORRY BUT I DON'T SPEAK MEANIE!!!!!  SKY MAGIC ROOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOAAAAAAAARRRRRRRRRRRRRR!!!!!!

Wendy Marvell uses her sky magic attack, but just like before, more of her power gets drained, and puts Wendy in a VERY weakened state.

Wendy Marvell: OOOOOOOOOOOOOOWWWWWWWW!!!!!!!!  THAT REALLY HURT!!!!!!!

Wendy Koopa: WELL YOU'VE REALLY MADE ME MAD, SO IT SERVES YOU RIGHT YOU LITTLE RUNT!!!!!

Wendy Marvell: YOU ARE SO NOT GETTING AWAY WITH THIS WHEN I GET OUT OF HERE!!!!!!

Wendy Koopa then receives a call from King Drago and Queen Xayide……………

Wendy Koopa: WHY KING DRAGO & QUEEN XAYIDE, IT’S GREAT TO HEAR FROM YOU!!!!!!

Queen Xayide: YOU FOOL…………………….YOU HAVE THE WRONG PRISONER!!!!!!!

King Dragon: WE WERE SUPPOSED TO RECEIVE YOUR PRISONER ON REN’S ORDERS!!!!!!!!!!!!!!  HOWEVER, WE CAN’T COMPLAIN TOO MUCH SINCE WE HAVE THE ROYAL PRINCESSES IN HAND!!!!!

Queen Xayide: YOU FOOL!!!!!  THESE 2 ARE POWERLESS AND AS GOOD AS USELESS WHERE AS SHE'S A POWERFUL WIND MAGIC USER WHO ALSO SPECIALIZES IN HEALING AND SUPPORT MAGIC AS DOES THE PINK HAIRED GIRL!!!!
THE THIRD AND MOST POWERFUL ROYAL PRINCESS FROM CASTAWAY SAPPHIRE BAY KINGDOM IS ON THE LOOSE BECAUSE THOSE 2 INCOMPITENT FOOLS GOT APPREHENDED BY THE POLICE!!!!

King Drago: MY BAD!!!!  I SHALL INFORM GENERAL REN AT ONCE!!!!!

Queen Xayide: DON’T EVEN BOTHER!!!!  WE OWE HIM NOTHING!!!!  GETTING THE PURPLE HAIRED GIRL WAS ONLY A PERK, BUT NOT THE MAIN OBJECTION!!!!!
HOWEVER CAPTAIN BLUE BEARD HAS BEEN ARRESTED AND IS NOW IN JAIL...............

King Drago: WHAT???????!!!!!!!

Queen Xayide: ALSO CAMARO VON LUDWIG IS STILL ALIVE AND IS COMING AFTER US BECAUSE OF THOSE INCOMPITENT FOOLS PRINDLE AND BURT!!!!

King Drago: THAT KID WON’T GO FAR!!!!  HE WON’T MAKE IT PASSED MORTON!!!!

Queen Xayide: YOU FOOL!!!!!  MORTON KOOPA JR. IS DEAD, AND THE MEGATON HAMMER IS OUT OF OUR GRASP!!!!!

Wendy Koopa: WHAT???????!!!!!!!!!!!  HE WON’T MAKE IT PASSED MY CASTLE!!!!!!

Queen Xayide: HE HAD BETTER NOT AND BY THE WAY, HE’S IN YOUR CASTLE NOW!!!!!

Wendy Koopa: NOT FOR LONG!!!!!!

Wendy Koopa then gets off the phone.

Wendy Koopa: WELL, WELL, WELL!!!!  IT SEEMS THAT YOUR PRECIOUS FRIEND VON LUDWIG IS STILL ALIVE AFTER ALL, AND IS STORMING MY CASTLE AS WE SPEAK!!!!!  BUT DON’T WORRY, HE WON’T MAKE IT FAR, I CAN PROMISE YOU THAT!!!!!  GAHAAAAA, HAAAAAAAAAA, HAAAAAAAAAAAA, HAAAAAAAAAAA, HAAAAAAAAA, HAAAAAAAAAAAA, HAAAAAAAAAAAAA!!!!!!

Wendy Marvell: YOU JUST WATCH!!!!  HE’LL KNOCK YOU OUT JUST LIKE HE DID WITH YOUR BROTHER!!!!!

Wendy Koopa: OH PLEASE????!!!!!  MORTON KOOPA JR. MAY HAVE BEEN OLDER THAN ME, BUT WAS A HUGE SOFTY!!!!!  I WON’T GO SO EASY ON YOUR FRIEND AS HE DID!!!!!

Meanwhile Cam was making quick work of Wendy’s Castle as he was climbing his way across airborne nets spanning over a lake filled with molten lead.

https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=Ym8jpnIgC2s

https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=KgQdUkKAy44

Cam: This isn’t so hard!!!! LOL!!!!

Many koopas climbing the nets attempted to attack Cam, but they were instantly knocked into the molted lead below.
Cam made his way through the first room VERY Fast until he hopped onto solid ground, and went through the door leading to the second room.

Cam: WOOOOOOOOOAAAAAAAAHHHHHH!!!!!!  The ceiling is caving in!!!!!

And it was……………

Cam: SHIT!!!!!  I HAVE TO FIND OPENINGS AND FAST!!!!!!

Thankfully Cam was able to find large gaps in the ceiling, and large trenches in the ground in order to avoid getting crushed by the ceiling as it lowered and raised itself up and down time and time again.

Cam: Hmmmmm, this is also starting to look familiar…………………

As Cam made his way over to raising floors, which took him higher and higher up the castle’s tower, Cam realized that he was in another Castle from Super Mario World.

Cam: OF COURSE!!!!  WHY DIDN’T I THINK OF THIS BEFORE???!!!!  THESE CASTLES ARE FROM SUPER MARIO WORLD!!!!!  AND THIS ONE IS FROM SUPER MARIO WORLD RETURN TO DINOSAUR ISLAND!!!!  NOT A HARD CASTLE AT ALL!!!!!

Cam made his way quickly up the castle tower hopping from moving platform to moving platform, and slaughtering skeleton Koopas left and right until he came to the door leading to the last room before the boss room.

Cam: AWESOME!!!!!  Just a straight shot up these flights of stairs!!!!!!

After running up the final flight of stairs, Cam barges into the boss room and gets ready for battle.

https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=ePjEIbpcv5c

Cam: WENDY KOOPA; I’M TAKING YOU DOWN!!!!

Wendy Koopa: NOT A CHANCE LITTLE MAN!!!!!  THERE’S NO WAY YOU’RE SAVING THAT TINY RUNT OF SO CALLED FRIEND OF YOURS!!!!!!

Cam: I DON’T KNOW WHO YOU’RE TALKING ABOUT, BUT NO ONE INSULTS ANY OF MY FRIENDS THAT WAY!!!!!!

https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=serV18MirGg

Cam runs across a set of pipes, and sees Wendy Koopa dive down one.

Cam: Hmmmmmmm.  It’s a game of hop on whose the real koopaling I see.  I guess now would be a good time to register the Megaton Hammer and turn this into a game of Whac-A-Mole!!!!

Cam gets out his item storage gun, selects the Megaton Hammer, registers it to his avatar, and the Megaton Hammer appears in his hands.  However Cam was a little bit taking it back given how heavy it was.

Cam: DAMN THIS IS A HEAVY SON OF A BITCH!!!!!  However, it’s perfect for defeating Wendy Koopa!!!!!

Wendy Koopa popped out of a pipe and Cam hopped over the phony koopalings using his skills from Karate and Kung Fu, swung the Megaton Hammer and landed a direct hit on Wendy Koopa’s head.

Wendy Koopa: OUCH!!!!!

Wendy Koopa then dove back down into the pipe network when 2 balls of fire appeared and attempted to go after Cam.

Cam: I know it’s in the rule book for a guy to NEVER hit a girl unless it’s for self defense, but you’re not a true girl, so you don’t count!!!!

A phony koopaling pops out from under Cam’s feet, but Cam dodges it, makes a huge jump between the 2 massive fireballs, swings the Megaton Hammer, and lands another hit on top of Wendy Koopa’s head.

Wendy Koopa: ALRIGHT, THAT’S IT!!!!!  NO MORE MISS NICE GIRL!!!!!!

Now the phony koopalings were showing up in drones, and popping up all over the place, making it harder for Cam to dodge, plus he had to deal with the fireballs as well, but it wasn’t long until Wendy Koopa popped out of a pipe for the last time.

Cam: I HAVE YOU NOW GIRLY!!!!!!!

After jumping high into the air and swinging the Megaton Hammer, Cam landed his third and final hit on Wendy Koopa’s head, and knocking her into a pit of molten lead below.

Wendy Koopa: NOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOO!!!!!!!  HOW COULD YOU??????????!!!!!!!!!!

Soon all the pipes in the boss room disappeared, and the molten lead hardened into a solid floor as a large key appeared.

Cam: BOO & YAAAAAA!!!!!!!!!!

Cam grabbed the key, and soon heard a familiar voice.

Wendy Marvell:HELLO, IS ANYONE OUT THERE????!!!!!

Cam: I have an idea who that is, and it sounded like it came from behind that Bowser statue there…………..

Cam: STAND BACK, I’M GONNA KNOCK THIS THING DOWN AND OPEN THE DOOR!!!!

Using the Megaton Hammer, Cam knocks over the Bowser Statue and destroys it before putting the Megaton Hammer back in his item storage, and sliding the key in the lock of the prison cell.
Cam then picks up his phone, and sends a text to everyone back in Tocoma stating that Castle 2 had been defeated before opening the prison cell door.

Wendy Marvell: CAM?????!!!!!!  IS THAT YOU?????!!!!!

Cam: It’ll take A LOT more than walking the plank, a Frozen Tundra, a dozen boxcars, and 2 fortress castles to get rid of me!!!!  LOL!!!!!

Wendy Marvell then ran up to Cam, wrapped her arms around him and cried her eyes out.

Wendy Marvell: IT IS YOU CAM!!!!!!!  THANK GOODNESS YOU’RE OKAY!!!!!!

Cam: They can slow me down, but they can’t stop me…………….

Wendy then realized with Cam okay, she decided to scold him with a BIG and LOUD………….

SLAP!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!

Right in the face…………..

Wendy Marvell: DON’T YOU EVER SCARE ME LIKE THAT EVER AGAIN!!!!!!  WHEN I SAW YOU WALK THE PLANK, I THOUGHT THAT WAS IT FOR YOU!!!!!!!  I THOUGHT YOU HAD DIED………………………….And all because of me…………………because I ran away from Ren…………………..

Cam: Johnny 5 told me about Ren and your arranged marriage, and how it ended abruptly.  But don’t ever think it’s your fault because it’s not.  I should not have allowed myself to get backed onto the plank like that.  Luckily Princess Erika saved my life with a body heat transfer spell along with healing magic.

Wendy Marvell: Thank goodness you’re okay………………promise me you won’t be wreckless like that ever again, okay?....................

Wendy Marvell holds out her pinky, and Cam hooks his pinky up with hers before she gives him a gentle kiss on the cheek.

Wendy Marvell: Cam, I missed you so much……………

Then suddenly a loud rumbling sound is heard………………..

Cam: And we need to get the hell out of here!!!!

Wendy Marvell: Why, what’s going on????!!!!

Cam: With Wendy Koopa dead, and you now released from imprisonment, this castle is now on the brink of destruction as a final attempt to kill us!!!!  Now we must get outta here while we still can!!!!

Cam grabs Wendy’s hand and the 2 take off running out of the boss room.  This caused Wendy to blush because this was the second time he grabbed her hand, but at the same time it made her happy.  
Just like Before Herbie starts up his engine, revs it up, and opens his ragtop canvas sunroof when…………….

Cam: HERBIE???????!!!!!

Herbie: BEEEP, BEEEP!!!!!!!

Herbie makes his way over right below the window Cam and Wendy jump out of…………

Cam: WAHT!!!!!!!!

This time Wendy to lands in Herbie’s passenger’s seat, and Cam lands on top of Herbie’s bonnet, before rolling off of it, and ends up on the ground.

Cam: OOOOWWWWWWW!!!!!!  YOUR POSITIONING COULD HAVE BEEN A LITTLE MORE ACCURATE THERE HERBIE!!!!!

Herbie: BEEEEEEEEEPPPP!!!!!! -_-

Wendy: CAM ARE YOU OKAY??????!!!!!!

Cam: YEP; JUST A LITTLE BRUISED BUT NO BIG DEAL!!!!

Cam jumps into Herbie’s driver’s seat, shifts the transmission into second gear, stomps his foot on the throttle, and Herbie takes off for the highway just in the nick of time when Cam looks into Herbie’s side view mirror……………….

Cam: WOOOOOOOAAAAAAAAHHHH!!!!!!!!!!

Wendy: LOOK AT THAT!!!!!!!!!

Wendy Koopa’s Castle came crashing down to the ground just like Morton’s did.

Cam: BOOO & YAAAA!!!!!!  2 DOWN AND 5 MORE TO GO!!!!!!!

Wendy: AWESOME!!!!  WAIT WHAT????!!!!!

Cam: Oh yeah, you probably don’t know the whole low down on what’s going on, so I’ll fill you in.

Cam informs Wendy on everything from his meeting he had the previous night, and informs her of what had happened with Burt and Mr. Prindle, and how they ended up selecting who went to which castle after playing a game of roulette.

Cam: And in this realm to get to King Drago & Queen Xayide, 7 castles must be destroyed.  6 of the 7 hold you guys as prisoners, while one of the 7 held a treasure known as The Legendary Megaton Hammer.  Now with the treasure in hand, and you released, we now have 5 more castles to go……………..

Wendy: I think I remember hearing that when we were loaded onto the airship and sent to our assigned prisons…………….

Cam: However I can’t go into this battle and defeat the 5 other castles alone; I’m actually gonna need your help with this, and since you’re a powerful wind magic user, and because of the friendship that we have, I don’t think I could have landed a better partner.

Wendy: If you want my help, you’ve got it Cam, and I promise to help you as best as I can from here on!!!!!

Wendy then gives Cam a gentle kiss on the cheek, happy to know that they're teaming up again to go into battle together.

Cam: And we’re not alone because Herbie’s in this battle as well.

Herbie: BEEEEP, BEEEEP!!!!!

Wendy: I almost forgot!!!!!  It’s great to see you again Herbie!!!!!

Herbie: BEEEP, BEEEP!!!!!

Wendy: Also thank you so much for keeping your promise!!!!

Herbie: BEEP, BEEP!!!!

Cam: What promise is that?

Wendy: *Giggles* It's a secret!!

Cam: Herbie, Rami, and Toby escaped Blue Beard’s ship, and were the first to arrive in Tocoma.
The Royal Guards along with Princess Erika, Johnny 5, our new friends from the Magic Kingdom Police Force Jim West and Gordon, as well as our blade smiths Dorion and Haji are all waiting back at our base camp hotel in Tocoma waiting for Troy’s release.  Once Troy’s released, he’ll lead them into battle, and we’ll all regroup once King Helmaroc The Demon Bird has been taken down, and the beacon has been lit.

Wendy: Sounds like a good plan!!!!

Cam: It’s now 3:00 O-Clock, Lemmy’s Castle is the next one on the map, and it’s not too far away from here, so LETS GO HERBIE!!!!!!

Herbie: BEEEEEP, BEEEEEP!!!!!!

With his tires screaming, Herbie pops a steep wheelie, and takes off down the highway.  Needless to say that Wendy wasn’t too happy about it.

Wendy: *SCREAMS* AAAAAAAHHHHHHHHHHHHH!!!!!!!!!  I HATE IT WHEN YOU GUYS DO THAT!!!!!!!

Cam: Sorry, out of habbit!!!!! LOL!!!!

Wendy: NOT FUNNY CAM!!!!!

Cam: Oh, by the way………..

Cam hands Wendy a pair of ear plugs, which leaves her puzzled.

Wendy: Ear plugs??  What are these for???!!!!

Cam: Herbie’s engine gets VERY LOUD when red-lined at 5000 RPM, and it’s deafening at 7000, so if you’re not used to it, your best bet is to put them in your ears.

Wendy: Okay????!!!!

Cam: Alright Herbie, try to keep it under 150!!!!

Herbie: BEEEEP, BEEEEP!!!!!!!

Wendy: WAIT????!!!!!  HAVE YOU GUYS BEEN GOING THAT FAST??????!!!!!!!

Cam: We’ve got so much distance to cover, and so little time.

Wendy: BUT CARLA WOULD KILL US THE MOMENT SHE FINDS OUT HOW FAST WE’RGE GOING, ESPECIALLY WITH THE DEATH TOLL BEING HIGHEST BY CAR ACCIDENTS!!!!!!

Cam: Fortunately Herbie hasn’t had an accident for years, so we should be good.

https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=SvQJEEBQSaU

Cam then shifts Herbie into 5th gear, and Herbie takes off flying down the road as his speedometer climbs up to 85 miles an hour.

Wendy: UUUUUUUHHHHHHH, WE’RE GOING AWFULLY FAST HERE!!!!!!

Cam: Not to worry, Herbie and I have it under control!!!

A set of tight bends and curves come up which cause Wendy to panic.

Wendy: BUT THOSE CURVES?????!!!!!!  WE WON’T MAKE EM!!!!!

Cam: Nothing Herbie and I can’t handle, but you better hold on……………

https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=xLFMwrE1qzs&t=1s

As Herbie enters the tight curve, Cam down shifts to 4th gear, turns the steering wheel a hard right causing Herbie to drift out his rear end to the left as he goes flying around the bend.
Herbie then straightens out before Cam upshifts back into 5th gear, and accelerates out of the curve, but down shifting back into 4th again.  He then turns the steer wheel hard to the left causing Herbie to drift his rear end out to the right as he went flying around the second bend before straightening out.

Cam: AWESOME WORK HERBIE!!!!

Wendy: AN EVEN TIGHTER CURVE!!!!!!!!

Cam downshifted Herbie back to 3rd gear before turning the steering wheel hard to the left, and pulling up on the emergency brake.  This caused Herbie’s rear wheels to lock and made him fly around the tight bend and straight out on in an instant.
Cam then released the E-Brake, threw Herbie back into 4th gear before accelerating out of the curve.  He then threw Herbie into 5th gear, and planted his foot down hard on the floor.

Cam: A few curves never bother us!!!!

Wendy was completely blown away by Cam and Herbie’s coordination, teamwork, and overall skills.

Wendy: WOW!!!!  THIS IS AMAZING!!!!!!!

Cam: Well, Herbie’s doing most of the work, but it is a lot of fun putting your skill and experience levels to the test.
It also helps when the E-Brake is on the correct side of the driver’s seat!!!! LOL!!!!

Wendy: You 2 are doing very awesome Cam, and make a great team!!!!!

Cam: Don’t get too excited, we’ve got more curves up ahead!!!

Cam and Herbie got back to work at negotiating their ways around the tight curves through the mountain passes, but they were both having a blast at putting their drifting skills to the test.
Wendy had never experienced or seen such driving in her life, so it was very fascinating for her to watch.  She couldn’t take her eyes off of Cam’s movement as he was shifting gears, turning the steering wheel hard, pulling up on the E-Brake, and doing fancy foot work with the pedals.  At the same time, she couldn’t take her eyes off of Herbie’s movements as Cam would turn the wheel one way, and Herbie’s back end would drift the other way, and yet they’d still maintain control.

https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=Wz-gwc0MAdA

Wendy then gets out her Ipad, syncs it with Cam’s and sees that the next castle is less than 4 miles away.

Wendy: ALRIGHT, THE NEXT CASTLE’S ONLY 4 MILES AWAY!!!!!

Cam: NICE GOING HERBIE!!!!!  WE’RE ALMOST AT CASTLE NUMBER #3!!!!!!

The winding curves soon came to an end, and it was just a straight shot to the third castle.

Cam: LEMMY KOOPA HERE WE COME!!!!!!!

To Be Continued……………….

Chapter 36

Shrunk Down To Size Of Major Embarrassment!!!!!!

In no time Herbie crosses the drawbridge and parks just outside the main entrance door to Lemmy Koopa’s Castle before Cam and Wendy get out.

Cam: Alright Herbie, you know the drill, it’s the same as before, so hang tight until we get back!!!!

Wendy: We won’t be long!!!

Cam and Wendy then rush into the first room of Lemmy’s Castle only to find the floor slippery causing them both to slip.

https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=Ym8jpnIgC2s

https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=omVFfczftj0

Cam: WAHT!!!!!

Wendy: AAAAHHHH!!!!

Cam lands right down on his face and Wendy lands on top of him.  

Wendy: OWWWW!!!!  OH MY GOSH, CAM ARE YOU OKAY?????!!!!!!

Cam: Slippery floor equals hard landing!!!!  I didn’t see this coming!!!!  I am gonna feel that into next week!!!!

Cam then notices that the floor is ice cold nearly causing him to freeze.

Cam: WAHT!!!!!  COLD, COLD, COLD!!!!!!  WHATEVER YOU DO, DO NOT END UP ON THE FLOOR!!!!!

Wendy: Okay????!!!!!!

Wendy then sees an army of Skeleton Koopa’s head straight towards her causing her to scream.

Wendy: *SCREAMS* AAAAAAAAAHHHHHHHHHH!!!!!!

Cam: Just a few Koopa skeletons, nothing to em!!!!

Cam gets up, selects the Megaton Hammer, and gets rid of the skeleton koopas in no time flat, but because of the hammer's heavy weight, he falls over again.

Cam: WAHT; OUCH!!!!!!

Wendy: OH MY GOSH!!!!  THAT SOUNDED LIKE IT REALLY HURT!!!!  

Wendy slips on the ice again, and this time falls flat on her stomach.

Wendy: *SCREAMS* AHHHHHHHHHH!!!!!  
OWWWWWWWWW!!!!!  You weren't kidding about this ice being VERY slippery!!!!

Cam: WHAT KIND OF A PECKERHEAD DESIGNS THEIR CASTLE WITH A SLIPPERY FLOOR MADE OF ICE?????!!!!!!  THE FREAKEN OOGWAY!!!!

Wendy: Whoever designed this place, didn’t want any outsiders in here, that’s for sure!!!

Cam: Got that right!!!!  Now that axes running too fast, and the use of the Megaton Hammer, which is just perfect!!!

Wendy: AWWWWW MANNNN!!!!!  This may take a while!!!!!

Cam: Something tells me that this Castle’s gonna be A LOT harder than the other 2!!!!!!

Cam and Wendy soon make their way to the next room only to find a HUGE roadblock.

Cam: NOW, WHAT IS THIS?  HOW INCONSIDERATE!!!!!!

Wendy: THERE’S NO WAY EITHER OF US COULD FIT WITH THAT OPENING!!!!

Cam: If Herbie were here, he’d just drive right through it and break it no problem!!!!

Wendy: We shouldn’t have left him outside!!!!!

Cam then examines closely and sees that the opening is just large enough for him and Wendy to crawl through if on all 4s.

Cam: It’s just big enough for the 2 of us to crawl through if we get on both our hands and knees!!!!  You should fit no problem, but I’m a big guy and might get stuck, so best you go first.

Wendy: I think you’re right!!!

Wendy gets down on all 4s and is instantly in shock after feeling the cold floor right through her navy blue thigh high socks, and her bare hands.

Wendy: *SCREAMS* AAAAAHHHHH!!!!!  THIS FLOOR IS FREEZING!!!!!  

Cam: I’m gonna regret this!!!!

Wendy slowly crawls through the opening and Cam gets on all 4s and follows.  

Wendy: OWWWW!!!!  THIS FLOOR IS FREEZING!!!!

Wendy stops while trying to recover from the icy floor, but this causes Cam to accidentally bump his head right into her butt and stop dead in his tracks.

Wendy: OWWWWW!!!!!  CAM, WHAT WAS THAT FOR????!!!!  MY BUTT’S ALL BRUISED NOW!!!!!  TO TOP IT OFF I’M WEARING A SHORT SKIRT!!!!!!

Cam soon begins to blush and nose bleed like crazy as he soon sees a clear shot of Wendy’s light blue panties right in front of his face.

Cam: WAHT!!!!!  *BLUSHES DARK RED AND NOSE BLEEDS*   UGH, NOT AGAIN!!!!!

Wendy: CAM, WHAT’S WITH THE BLUSHING AND NOSE BLEEDING???!!!!!  THIS ISN’T THE TIME TO…………………

Then Wendy then realized that Cam was looking at a clear shot up her mini skirt and right at her underwear.  This caused Wendy to blush and freak out.

Wendy: *BLUSHES BRIGHT PINK AND SCREAMS* AAAAAAAAAAAAHHHHHHHHHH!!!!!!!!  CAM YOU PERVERT, LOOK AWAY!!!!!!!!

Wendy then kicked Cam right in the face giving him a black eye.

Cam: OOOOWWWWWWWWWWW!!!!!!

Wendy: *BLUSHES BRIGHTER PINK*  I'LL NEVER LIVE THIS EMBARRASSMENT DOWN AS LONG AS I LIVE!!!!!

Cam: THAT WILL LEAVE A MARK INTO NEXT MONTH!!!!

Then Wendy looked back, saw Cam’s black eye, and instantly felt terrible.

Wendy: OH MY GOSH, CAM ARE YOU OKAY?????!!!!!!  I’M SOOOOOO SORRY!!!!!!

Cam: Don’t worry about it; just keep going!!!!!

Wendy: Are you sure?

Cam: Just worry about it when we’re through…………

Wendy: Okay……………….

Cam and Wendy get back to crawling through the small opening, and are soon out on the other side standing back on their feet in no time flat.

Wendy: Glad to finally be out of there!!!!

Cam: I’ll say!!!!!

Wendy had a good look at Cam’s black eye, and felt even more awful.

Wendy: OH MY GOSH CAM, I’M SO VERY SORRY ABOUT THAT!!!!!  I DIDN'T MEAN TO HURT YOU, I SWEAR!!!!  I OVERREACTED!!!!!!

Cam: Don’t worry about.  This isn’t the first time I’ve been injured in the eye………….heck locomotive lifting injector and tri-cock valves hit A LOT harder and hurt a WHOLE LOT more given their heavy weight and extremely hot temperature of over 100 degrees, so this is nothing…………..

Wendy: Still, I gotta do something about this!!!!

Wasting no time, Wendy uses a little healing magic on Cam’s black eye…………

Wendy: There!!!!  Your eye should be healed in a few hours!!!!

Cam: Thanks Wendy.

Wendy: Don’t mention it!!!!  It’s my fault, and had I not overreacted, you wouldn’t have gotten hurt.

Cam: Hey, don’t worry about it……………It’s not the first time I got hurt in the eye, and most likely won’t be the last.  Next time it happens, it'll most likely be a leaky locomotive's lifting injector valve, and that hurts A WHOLE LOT more, so I've dealt with a lot worse and will most likely deal with MUCH worse later on down the road.

Wendy then gives Cam a gentle kiss on the cheek.

Wendy: You really are very sweet Cam, and thank you for being patient with me………............again I'm so sorry for kicking you in the eye like that......................

Cam: Hey, a little eye injury isn’t enough to stop me.  Now we gotta find a way to get to the top of the tower........

Cam then looks up and sees that the only way up is to jump on multiple slippery floating blocks of ice………………….

Cam: UH-OH!!!!

Wendy: There’s no way we can get up there!!!!

Cam: Not without slipping on the blocks of ice……………

Wendy: I can use sky magic to levitate, but could easily fall…………..especially with the slippery ice.............

Cam: Looks like you’re riding on my back……….

Wendy: Are you sure?????!!!!!

Cam: It’s our only option, so hop on………..

Wendy: Okay……………………

Wendy hops on Cam’s back and holds on tight.

Cam: Alrighty, here goes nothing!!!!!

Using he skills from Karate and Kung Fu, Cam jump kicks the sides of the walls, bounces off of them, and manages to land on the floating ice blocks only to wind up face to face with firey hot heads.

Cam: OH SHIT!!!!!  

Wendy: *SCREAMS* AAAAAAHHHHHHHHH!!!!!  WHAT ARE THOSE THINGS????!!!!

Cam: DAMN HOT HEADS!!!!!  I DID NOT BARGAIN FOR THIS!!!!

Cam had to jump from Ice block to ice block really fast, and had very minimal room for error, for a slip could mean the difference between life and death for him and Wendy.

Cam: OH CRAP!!!!!!

Wendy: THERE’S MORE OF EM!!!!!

Cam: ONE TOUCH FROM ONE OF THOSE AND WE'RE TOAST!!!!

Cam notices that the hot heads melt the ice blocks because of their heat.

Cam: AND NO TIME TO STOP!!!!!

Cam continues jump kicking the walls, and move from ice block to ice block as he and Wendy make their way up the castle’s tower.
Soon Wendy spots spikes coming out of the ceiling.

Wendy: WATCH OUT FOR THE CEILING!!!!!

Cam: SPIKES????!!!!!!  JUST GREAT CAUSE NOW WE NEED TO DUCK!!!!!!

Cam and Wendy ducked as Cam jumps from the ice block to ice block, while avoiding spikes in the ceiling until………

Cam: FINALLY SOME SOLID GROUND…………..

But the solid ground had spike pits in in it!!!!

Cam: OH, FOR GOD SAKES!!!!!!!

Cam had to continue to jumping from ice block to ice block, and land on small air bourn platforms between the ceiling and the floor, both of which were rigged with thousands of spikes.

Wendy: WILL THIS EVER END????!!!!!

Cam: I question that myself!!!!

Cam jumps higher and higher up the castle tower via ice blocks, and soon finds himself face to face with a Skeleton Koopa pacing on the solid ground he needs to land on.

Cam: SMILE YOU SON OF A BITCH!!!!!

Using a his fist, Cam smashes the Skeleton Koopa to bits before jumping higher and higher up the castle’s tower until……………..

Cam & Wendy: FINALLY!!!!!!!

Cam and Wendy reach the door leading to the next room.
Cam then gently lowers Wendy off of his back and back on her feet.  Wendy was grateful for Cam carrying her, but also felt bad for not being much help.
A few tears came pouring down Wendy’s face, for she was very sensitive whenever it came to being unable to help.

Wendy: Thank you so much for carrying me…………….I only wish I was more of help to you…………………….

Cam: Hey, don’t worry about it.  Come to think of it, this isn’t Lemmy’s Castle from Super Mario World, this is Lemmy’s Castle From Super Mario World Return To Dinosaur Island, and UUUUUUUGGGGGGGGGHHHHHHHH!!!!!!

Wendy: Is it that hard??????!!!!!!!

Cam: I died multiple times in Lemmy’s Castle from Super Mario World trying to clear it, so it took me more tries than I’d care to count.  However in Lemmy’s Castle from Return To Dinosaur Island?????!!!!!!!  I must have died more than 10 times the amount that I died in regular Super Mario World, and it took me A WHOLE LOT longer to clear it.  Therefor I’d say we’re in a VERY TOUGH castle!!!!!

Wendy: I see…………….I only wish I wasn’t such a burden to you…………….

And Wendy began to cry…………….

Wendy: I’m really nothing but a useless burden…………….I'm letting you down...................

Cam: No you're not Wendy!!!!!  Yes it’s nice to have the help, but I’m glad you’re here with me because I really enjoy your company.  Plus, your sky magic WILL come in handy sooner or later.  Besides the next castles we have to clear are the twin castles of Iggy & Larry, and for that I need your help!!!!  If I tried clearing one of the twin castles before the other, it won’t work!!!!  The bosses have to be destroyed at the same time in order for the castles to be cleared, so I know for a fact that I can’t take em out alone.
Besides, we were hit with rotten luck on this castle.  If it was Lemmy’s Castle from the normal game of Super Mario World, your Sky Magic would have come in handy, ESPECIALLY against this darn wizard that kept getting in my way.
But unfortunately we wound up in Lemmy’s Ice Castle, and we couldn’t have predicted it.  Don't go blaming yourself because you are not at fault.................this damn castle is way more than both of us have bargained for, but we will make it through one way or another.

Wendy wrapped her arms around Cam and gave him a gentle kiss on the cheek.

Wendy: Thank you for being so sweet to me Cam, and thank you for always keeping in faith in me.
I’m sorry for being such a crybaby, but I promise to help you as much as I can!!!!

Cam: Don’t worry about it.  We’re in this together as a team.  We have our strengths and weaknesses.  In all honesty if it wasn’t for my experience in Karate or Kung Fu as a Level 10 Black Belt, we’d both be dead by now.

Wendy: You really are a very sweet boy Cam, and a good friend.  Also I think your jumping skills are amazing, so don’t sell yourself short.

Cam: I don’t think I couldn’t have teamed up with a better partner.

Wendy then gave Cam another gentle kiss on the cheek.

Wendy: Let’s continue!

Cam: Good plan because this castle’s getting kinda depressing.

Cam and Wendy then make their way into the next room.

Cam: Well, no more blocks of ice that we need to jump on.

Wendy: That’s good!!!!

Cam: BUT…………….

Wendy: CAM, WHAT THE HECK IS THAT THING?????!!!!!!

Cam: A THWOMP!!!!!  JUST GREAT!!!!!!!

Cam grabs Wendy’s hand, and the 2 make a mad dash for it as the large Thwomp comes crashing down to the ground attempting to crush Cam and Wendy.

Wendy: THOSE THINGS ARE SCARY!!!!!

Cam: AND NOW WE HAVE ANOTHER ONE!!!!!

Cam and Wendy soon make their way to a staircase, only to get attacked by more large Thwomps!!!!
Needless to say both Cam and Wendy were having enough of Lemmy’s Castle.

Cam & Wendy: THIS CASTLE SUCKS!!!!!!!

The faster Cam and Wendy try to run, the more angry Thwomps come crashing down and not only up and down, but also side to side and diagonally too.

Cam: DAMN THESE STUPID THWOMPS!!!!

Wendy: HOW MUCH MORE ARE THERE????!!!!!

Cam: NO IDEA, BUT THEY’RE AS ANNOYING AS THEY ARE TERRIFYING!!!!

At last after dodging all the angry Thwomps, Cam and Wendy finally make it to the doors leading to the boss room.

Cam & Wendy: FINALLY!!!!!!

Cam: Thankfully Lemmy Koopa is not that difficult of a boss from Super Mario World, but this game could trick us.

Wendy: Only one way to find out!!!!

Cam: Right!!!

Cam opens up his item storage, and selects the Megaton Hammer.

Cam: The Megaton Hammer will make quick work of him!!!!

Wendy: I won’t be holding back this time!!!!

Cam and Wendy then charge into the boss room.

Cam & Wendy: LEMMY KOOPA, YOU’RE GOING DOWN!!!!!

Lemmy Koopa: NOT SO FAST YOU 2!!!!!!

Lemmy Koopa was nothing like Lemmy Koopa from Super Mario World for he instead was rolling on top of a large green ball and holding a large magic scepter.

https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=7WycoDeI25U

https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=eRJ5EhKp_Lo

Cam: UH-OH!!!!!  THIS IS NOTHING LIKE IN THE SUPER MARIO WORLD GAMES!!!!

Lemmy Koopa: BWA HAAAAAA, HAAAAAAAAAA, HAAAAAAAAA!!!!!  GOES TO SHOW HOW MUCH YOU KNOW!!!!!!!

Lemmy Koopa comes rolling towards Cam and Wendy on his ball and waving his magic scepter.

Cam: DODGE HIM!!!!

Wendy: RIGHT!!!!!

Cam and Wendy jump out of the way just in the nick of time.

Lemmy Koopa: OH RATS!!!!!

Wendy: SKY MAGIC ROOOOOOOOOOAAAAAAAAARRRR!!!!!

Using her sky magic, Wendy enhances Cam’s agility allowing him to dodge Lemmy’s attacks more quickly.

Cam: THANKS WENDY!!!!!  THAT’S JUST WHAT I NEEDED TO TAKE THIS SUCKER DOWN!!!!!

Cam attempts to make a mighty swing with the Megaton Hammer when……………..

Lemmy Koopa: AAAAHHHHH-AAAAAAAHHHH-AAAAAAAHHHHHHH!!!!!!!  NOT SO FAST!!!!!  NOW REGRESS!!!!!  BECOME A MERE SHADOW OF YOURSELF!!!!!

Lemmy Koopa waves his magic scepter and uses a de-aging spell on both Cam and Wendy.  This stops Cam and Wendy right dead in their tracks before shrinking them down to size while also de-aging them back to being kids.

Cam: HEY, WHAT THE?????!!!!!!

Wendy: WHAT JUST HAPPENED????!!!!!

Cam found himself de-aged down to age 10.  His pants were completely loose and going all the way up passed his stomach, his shirt was WAY too big and was falling off of him, his feet no longer fit his Ecco Fusion shoes, and the Megaton Hammer was WAY TOO HEAVY for him to lift.

Cam: WHAT THE????!!!!!  JUST GREAT, I CAN’T LIFT THIS THING ANYMORE!!!!!!!

Wendy: WHAT’S WRONG CAM???......................

At the same time Wendy had also shrunk, and was de-aged down to age 5.  The sleeves of her jacket were COMPLETELY covering her hands, the bottom of her jacket reached down to her knees, both her black pleated mini skirt and light blue panties had fallen off her waist and were on the ground around her feet, her large knee high socks had fallen down to her ankles, and her feet couldn’t even fit her white slider sandals.  This caused Wendy to completely freak out.

Wendy: OH NO, SOMETHING MUST HAVE TURNED US INTO KIDS!!!!!!  *Screams*  AAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAHHHHHHHH!!!!!  CAM, PLEASE DON’T LOOK THIS WAY!!!!!  THIS IS SO EMBARASSING!!!!!

Cam takes one look and sees what has happened to Wendy.  However when he sees Wendy's light blue panties on the ground, it causes him to both blush and nose bleed like crazy, but at the same time he's also sympathetic about the entire de-aging process happening to her.

Cam:  *BLUSHES DARK RED AND NOSE BLEEDS*  OH NO, IT HAPPENED TO YOU TOO?????!!!!!!!

Wendy: *BLUSHES BRIGHT PINK, FREAKS OUT, AND SCREAMS* AAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAHHHHHHHHHHH!!!!!!  CAM, YOU PERVERT; LOOK AWAY!!!!!!!!!!

And Wendy begins to cry her eyes out like the little crybaby she is………………………

Wendy: I’LL NEVER LIVE THIS EMBARRASSMENT DOWN AS LONG AS I LIVE!!!!!  THIS IS JUST TOO EMBARRASSING!!!!!  I CAN'T BELIEVE YOU SAW ME SO INDECENT LIKE THIS!!!!!

Cam: THIS NO GOOD PECKERHEAD IS GONNA PAY………………WHAT THE?????!!!!!

Cam then notices another thing………………………….

Cam: WAS THAT MY VOICE??????!!!!!!  WAS THAT MY VOICE??????!!!!!!

Wendy: I THINK SO?????!!!!!! *GIGGLES AND BURSTS OUT LAUGHING*  OH MY GOSH, YOU SOUND REALLY FUNNY CAM!!!!!  YOU ALSO SOUND KINDA CUTE!!!!

Cam: OH, FLYIN FUCKEN SHIT!!!!!!  I SOUND JUST LIKE STEVE URKLE AND BART SIMPSON!!!!!!  JUST GREAT!!!!!  I NEVER LIKED THE SOUND OF MY VOICE WHEN I WAS A KID, AND NOW I HAVE TO DEAL WITH IT AGAIN!!!!!  JUST GREAT!!!!

Lemmy Koopa: *BURSTS OUT LAUGHING* GHAAAAAA, HAAAAAAAAAAA, HAAAAAAAAAAAA, HAAAAAAAAAAA, HAAAAAAAAAA, HAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAA!!!!!!!!!!   NOW YOU KNOW WHAT IT’S LIKE BEING PINT SIZED LIKE ME!!!!!!!

Cam: YOU WON’T GET AWAY WITH THIS LEMMY KOOPA, YOU FREAKIN OOGWAY!!!!!

Wendy: YOU ARE NOTHING BUT A BIG EVIL CACKLING MEANIE AND A JERK FACE!!!!!!

Lemmy Koopa: I JUST DID!!!!!  AND THANKS; I TRY!!!!!  BWA HAAAAAAA, HAAAAAAAA, HAAAAAAAAAAAA!!!!!!!

Lemmy Koopa then rolls over to Cam and Wendy ready to crush them as the 2 wrap their arms around each other in a tight hug and shut their eyes.

Wendy: CAM………………..I…………………I’M SCARED……………….

Cam: WE’LL MAKE IT OUT OF THIS SOMEHOW………………..

Wendy: IF ANYTHING HAPPENS AND WE DON’T MAKE IT OUT ALIVE, CAM I JUST WANT YOU TO KNOW THAT I…………………THAT I......................

Before Wendy could finish her sentence the doors entering the boss room fly open and a familiar car horn is heard…………….

Herbie: BEEEEEEEEEEEP, BEEEEEEEEEEEEP!!!!!!!!!!!

Cam & Wendy: HERBIE???????!!!!!!!!

Lemmy Koopa: WHAT THE???????????!!!!!!!!

Cam: PERFECT TIMING HERBIE!!!!!!

Wendy: HERBIE YOU’RE A LIFE SAVER!!!!!

Lemmy Koopa: NO ONE SAID ANYTHING ABOUT FACING THE POWERS OF A LIVING CAR?????!!!!!!!!  NO PROBLEM!!!!!!!  I’LL JUST DE-AGE HIM, THE SAME WAY I DE-AGED YOU 2!!!!

Waving his scepter, Lemmy Koopa de-ages Herbie just like he did with Cam and Wendy, but………………….

Lemmy Koopa: WHAT THE HELL??????!!!!!!!!

Herbie was de-aged down to age 14 and was back to his 1977 Rust Bucket Taxi appearance from Herbie Goes Bananas, but he did not shrink AT ALL!!!!!

Lemmy Koop: IT ONLY CHANGED HIS LOOK?????!!!!!   BUT HOW?????!!!!!!!!  

Cam: *BURSTS OUT LAUGHING*  BECAUSE HERBIE’S A CAR, SO YOU ONLY DE-AGED HIM, BUT IF YOU DE-AGE A CAR, YOU WON’T CHANGE ITS SIZE GIVEN THAT IT’S AN INANIMATE OBJECT!!!!!!  HOWEVER HERBIE’S AN EXCEPTION AS A LIVING CAR!!!!!!  BUT EVEN AS A LIVING CAR, HE WON’T SHRINK BECAUSE HE'S A FULL SIZE CAR!!!!  ONLY RICK MORANIS HAS THE ABILITY TO SHRINK HIM!!!!!!
AND SINCE YOU'VE DE-AGED HIM, HIS ENGINE AND TRANSMISSION ARE BACK TO BEING ALMOST BRAND NEW, SO THAT MEANS A YOUNGER HERBIE IS A MORE POWERFUL HERBIE!!!!!
ALSO IN THE 1977 FILM OF HERBIE GOES BANANAS, HE MAY HAVE BEEN A RUST BUCKET TAXI, BUT HE CARRIED A TWIN BARREL DUEL OVERHEAD CARBURETOR ENGINE WITH OVER 150 HORSE POWER TOO!!!!!

Wendy: *GIGGLES*  BET YOU DIDN’T SEE THAT COMING LEMMY????!!!!!!!!!

Herbie then sees what has happened to Cam and Wendy and gets VERY ANGRY!!!!!!

Cam: AND NOW YOU'VE DONE IT LEMMY KOOPA; YOU'VE MADE HERBIE VERY ANGRY!!!!!

https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=kn3TD1_k1D4

Herbie then angrily revs up his engine, spins his drive wheels, throws his transmission into second gear, and charges towards Lemmy Koopa while popping a wheelie before slamming his front end back down hard on the ground.

Lemmy Koopa: YOU KEEP AWAY FROM ME YOU CRAZY CAR!!!!!!!

Herbie then chases Lemmy all around the boss room before opening up his trunk bonnet, throwing a Phillips screwdriver at Lemmy’s ball, and causing it to pop with a VERY LOUD………………..

BANG!!!!!!!!

Cam & Wendy: YEAH!!!!!!!  THAT’S SHOWING HIM!!!!!

With Lemmy’s ball deflated, Lemmy was vulnerable and helpless…………….

Lemmy Koopa: NO FAIR!!!!!!!  YOU STAY AWAY FROM ME!!!!!!

Herbie then squirts oil onto the floor causing Lemmy Koopa to slip and fall right on his face.

Lemmy Koopa: WOOOOOOOOAAAAAAH!!!!!!!   OUCH!!!!!!!!  STAY BACK!!!!!!

Herbie pops a steep angled wheelie before his front end comes crashing down on top of Lemmy and in turn knocking the magic scepter out of his hand………………….

Lemmy Koopa: YOU CRAZY CAR, GET OFF ME!!!!!!

With the scepter flying out of Lemmy’s hand, it soon comes crashing to the ground and shatters into bits.  This in turn restores Herbie back to his current/1980 Monte Carlo Appearance, restores Cam back to age 22, Wendy back to age 12, and restores them both back to their proper sizes.

Cam: WOOOOOOOOOAAAAAAAAAAAAHHHHHH!!!!!!!!!!!  I’M BACK!!!!!!!

Wendy: ME TOO!!!!!!!!

Cam and Wendy were now finally back to their correct ages and sizes with their clothes fitting back on them nice and snug.

Wendy: SO GLAD MY SKIRT AND UNDERWEAR ARE BACK ON!!!!!  AND THAT MY JACKET NO LONGER GOES PASSED MY WAIST OR COVERS MY HANDS!!!!!!

Cam: AND I’M GLAD MY PANTS NO LONGER COVER MY STOMACH, AND THAT MY SHIRT ONCE AGAIN FITS!!!!!!  I’M ALSO GLAD THAT I NO LONGER SOUND LIKE STEVE URKLE AND BART SIMPSON!!!!!

Wendy: *Giggles* I WILL ADMIT, YOU SOUNDED PRETTY FUNNY CAM!!!! LOL!!!!

Cam: Yeah, yeah, yeah!!!!  Rub it in!!!! -_-

Cam and Wendy readjust their clothes before wrapping their arms around each other in a big hug happy to know that they’re back to normal.

Wendy: I’M SOOOOOO HAPPY WE’RE BACK TO NORMAL!!!!

Cam: ME TOO!!!!! NOW ONLY ONE THING LEFT TO DO!!!!!!

Wendy: HERBIE, IF YOU WOULDN’T MIND, WE’LL TAKE IT FROM HERE *GIGGLES*

Herbie: BEEEEP, BEEEP!!!!!!

Herbie rolls off of Lemmy Koopa and Lemmy Koopa sees both a fully restored Cam and Wendy looking down at him looking pretty pissed off.

Lemmy Koopa: UUUUUUUHHHHHHH, GUYS…….LOL………..LET ME EXPLAIN……..LOL!!!!!!

https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=EfGCCYWFd1I

Cam: THERE’S NOTHING TOO EXPLAIN YOU LITTLE UMFUFU HEAD!!!!!!

Wendy: YOU EMBARASSED US QUITE A BIT, SO IT’S ONLY RIGHT WE RETURN THE FAVOR!!!!!  

Cam: Ready when you are Wendy!!!!!

Wendy: RIGHT!!!!!  SKY MAGIC ROOOOOOOOOOOOOAAAAAAAARRRRR!!!!!!!

Using her sky magic, Wendy sends Lemmy Koopa flying in the air.

Cam: PERFECT!!!!!!!

Using his skills as a black belt, Cam grabs the Megaton Hammer, jumps high into the air, and hits Lemmy Koopa on the head with the Megaton Hammer sending hurtling to the ground when………….

Herbie: BEEEEEP, BEEEEEP!!!!!!

Herbie moves right underneath Lemmy Keepa, and right when Lemmy Koopa’s about to land on Herbie, Herbie opens his trunk bonnet causing Lemmy to bounce back up into the air, and this time………….

Wendy: TAKE THIS!!!!!!!  SKY MAGIC TALON!!!!!!

Wendy jumps high into the air and kicks Lemmy right in the face.

Lemmy Koopa: OWWWWWWWWWWW…………………

But Lemmy gets a pretty nice view of something he likes………….

Lemmy Koopa: HEY, CUTE PANTIES LITTLE GIRL AND LIGHT BLUE; I LIKE!!!!!!!……………….

Wendy: *BLUSHES BRIGHT PINK* UUUUGGGGGHHHH!!!!!!! CAM, DO ME A FAVOR AND GET RID OF THIS GUY!!!!!!

Cam: YOU GOT IT WENDY!!!!!!

Cam jumps back into the air and hits Lemmy back on the head with the Megaton Hammer sending him hurtling back to the ground, and Herbie once again moves back under Lemmy.

Lemmy: PLEASE, SPARE MERCY ON A POOR KOOPALING!!!!!!  I’M SORRY!!!!!

But it was too late, as Lemmy went hurtling towards Herbie’s rear-end. Herbie pops his engine cover hood causing Lemmy to bounce back into the air before…………….

SQUIRT SPLASH!!!!!!!!

Herbie squirts motor oil all over Lemmy covering his entire face as he goes hurtling towards Wendy as she jumps back high into the air.

Wendy: SERVES YOU RIGHT YOU LITTLE PERVERT!!!!!!

Wendy kicks Lemmy right in the face before using her Sky Magic.

Wendy: SKY MAGIC ROOOOOOOOOOOOAAAAAAAARRRRR!!!!

Wendy’s Sky Magic sends Lemmy hurtling over to Cam as he jumps back into the air ready to swing the Megaton Hammer.

Lemmy Koopa: OH BOY!!!!!!!

Cam: SMILE YOU SON OF A BITCH!!!!!

Cam hits Lemmy Koopa on the head with the Megaton Hammer for the 3rd and final time before sending him barreling right into the wall………………….

Lemmy Koopa: NO FAIR!!!!!!!!  THIS SUCKS!!!!!

Lemmy Koopa hits the wall with a VERY LOUD……………….

BANG!!!!!!!

He then disintegrates shortly after impact before a key shows up as Cam and Wendy gently touch down on the ground.

https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=2mRil1IKrrE

Cam: FINALLY!!!!!!

Wendy: AT LAST IT’S FINALLY OVER!!!!!

Wendy then wraps her arms around Cam in a big hug, and Cam hugs her back.

Cam: Hey, you were pretty awesome Wendy!!!!

Wendy: Thank you, so were you!!!!

Cam: We work pretty well together when the times call for it!!!!

Wendy: Yeah!!!! *Giggles*  Cam, can you promise me you won’t tell anyone about what happened????!!!!!  Especially about my underwear and skirt falling off…………*BLUSHES BRIGHT PINK*

Cam: If you promise not to tell anyone about what happened with my voice, then it’s not a problem!!!

Wendy: Deal!!!!

Cam and Wendy then hook their pinkies before Wendy gives Cam a gentle kiss on the cheek when………………

Troy: *BURSTS OUT LAUGHING*  OH FLYIN FUCKEN SHIT!!!!!!  THAT ALL SOUNDED PRETTY GOD DAMN ENTERTAINING FROM IN HERE!!!!!  I ONLY WISH I WAS OUT THERE TO WATCH ALL THE ACTION UNFOLD!!!!!  LOL!!!!!!

The color then drained out of both Cam and Wendy’s faces when they heard the familiar voice come out from behind the Bowser Statue………………

Cam: OH NOOOOOOOOOOOO!!!!!  WHY DID IT HAVE TO BE HIM????!!!!!

Wendy: AND HERE OF ALL PLACES????!!!!!!  YOUR BROTHER CAN BE SUCH A MEANNIE!!!!!

Cam: YOU GOT THAT RIGHT!!!!  No one’s got more dirt on me than him, and now it’s even worse after he heard everything that happened to us…..………..

Wendy: THIS REALLY ISN’T OUR DAY CAM………………..

Cam: AND IT STARTED OFF VERY WELL TOO!!!!!!!

Troy: YOU KNOW I CAN HEAR YOU GUYS FROM IN HERE RIGHT????!!!!!  AND I HEARD JUST ABOUT EVERYTHING THAT HAPPENED DURING THE BOSS FIGHT, SO I KNOW THAT YOUR VOICE WAS PITCHED CAM!!!!!  AND I KNOW THAT YOU LOST BOTH YOUR SKIRT AND UNDERWEAR BEFORE TURNING INTO A BIG CRYBABY WENDY!!!!!! LOL!!!!!

Wendy: *BLUSHES BRIGHTER PINK*  MEANNIE, I DIDN’T LOOSE EM, THEY JUST FELL OFF OF ME BECAUSE I DE-AGED DOWN TO 5!!!!!!

Cam: AND MY VOICE ONLY PITCHED BECAUSE I DE-AGED DOWN TO 10 YOU OOGWAY!!!!!
IF ALL YOU’RE GONNA DO IS EMBARRASS THE HECK OUT OF US US, YOU CAN JUST STAY IN THERE!!!!

Wendy: AND THAT WORKS FOR ME!!!!

Troy: HEY???!!!!  THAT IS NOT FUNNY!!!!!

Cam: UUUUUUUGGGGGGHHHHH!!!!!!  We’re gonna have to let him out anyways because the castle will come crashing down, and everyone at base camp in Tocoma is expect him back ASAP.  Plus we’ll never hear the end of it if his HP drops to zero and we all have to start the game all over again because we were too stubborn to not let him out.

Wendy: You’re right…………..

Cam: HANG ON THERE TROY!!!!!

Cam then picks up the Megaton Hammer, smashes the Bowser Statue and unlocks the prison cell door.

Troy: FINALLY YOU MADE IT!!!!!

Cam: UUUUUGGGGGHH!!!!  We don’t have much time to waste…………….

Then the familiar deep rumbling sound is heard……………

Wendy: With Lemmy destroyed, and you now released, this castle will come crashing down at any second.

Cam: So best that we all get in Herbie and get outta here!!!!

Cam, Troy, and Wendy all get in Herbie, and Herbie takes off out of the boss room.

Cam: By the way Herbie, how did you make it to the boss room????!!!!!

Wendy: That’s what I was wondering????!!!!!

Herbie: BEEP, BEEP, BEEP!!!!!

Cam: Oh, I forgot, you have the ability to drive and down up walls like you did in Herbie Rides Again, so that makes sense………….then again that was more of an embankment than it was a wall, then again you drove on the ceiling of the Monaco Tunnel in Herbie Goes To Monte Carlo, and you drove on the fence at California Speed Way in Herbie Fully Loaded, so it was basically the same trick!!!!!  But hey, it came in handy because you saved our rear ends!!!!!

Wendy: Yeah!!!!!  If it wasn’t for you Herbie, we’d be done for!!!!

Herbie then takes a turn, and jumps out of the castle right through a large set of glass windows just in the nick of time.

Troy: HOLY SHIT!!!!!

Cam: MY THOUGHTS EXACTLY!!!!!

Wendy: TROY????!!!!!!!  LANGUAGE????!!!!!!!!!

Lemmy Koopa’s Castle comes crashing down to the ground as Herbie gently touches down on the ground and drives off for the main highway.

Cam: It happens every time we clear a castle.

Wendy: But this castle took us longer than expected…………..

Cam: Got that right………….

Troy: *BUSTS OUT LAUGHING*  WHY AM I NOT SURPRISED????!!!!!!!  THAT WAS SOME OF THE BEST ENTERTAINMENT I’VE HEARD IN YEARS…………..and Wendy you can be such a crybaby just like Erika!!!!!  LOL!!!!!

Wendy: I can’t help it………………..

Cam: She had a good reason……………….

Troy: And you sounded GOD DAMNED HILARIOUS WITH YOUR VOICE PITCHED LIKE STEVE URKLE AND BART SIMPSON CAM!!!!!

Cam: UUUUUUUUUUUGGGGGGHHHH!!!!!!  YOU TELL ANYONE ABOUT WHAT HAPPENED, AND YOU ARE SOOOOOOOO DEAD!!!!!!!

Wendy: AND I COMPLETELY SUPPORT CAM ON THIS!!!!!

Troy: UH-OH!!!!!

Cam: Anyways, everyone is expecting you back at Base Camp in Tocoma ASAP, so we need to find a way to get you back there in as short of time as possible.

Cam then gets out his Ipad, opens the map, and sees that there’s a horse ranch not too far away.

Cam: Okay, it looks like there’s a horse ranch about 2 miles from here.  If we get a hold of a horse, you can use it to take you back to base camp, so you and the guys can plan an attack on King Drago & Queen Xayide’s Castle while Wendy and I take down the remaining castles.

Troy: Sounds like you really thought this out.

Cam: It’s Princess Erika’s orders, and all part of what we had planned.
And by the way I told her everything……………

Troy: You mean?

Cam: Yes, Princess Erika now knows that she’s from our world, as well as the fact that we’re her older brothers, and she actually took it very well.

Wendy: THAT’S GREAT!!!!!

Troy: That’s a relief!!!

Cam: I also told her that she’s actually adopted……………….

Troy: WHAT????????!!!!!!!!!

Cam: With her memory of the real world erased I thought it was the perfect time to explain our relationship with her in the real world……….besides she saved my life, so I owed her a logical explanation…………….however her feelings for us still retained in her heart, which is probably why she took it very well.

Troy: That was news we were all waiting to tell her when she came to a rightful age………….

Cam: She’s 11-years-old, and is only younger than Wendy by just 1 year.  In all honesty now is as good of a time to tell her as any, and her being adopted was bound to come up sooner or later.

Troy: I guess your right, but in all honesty it would have been better had we both told her together…………..Anyways, we know she’s waiting back in Tocoma, who else is waiting?

Cam: Her guards Ramsley and Helmsley, as well as the Royal Guards Poe & Finn, along with Rami and Toby, Johnny 5, our weapons forgers Dorion & Haji, and our new friends Jim West and Artemous Gordon from the Magic Kingdom’s Police Force are all waiting for you to report back to them at the Tocoma Haraseeket Inn.
Speaking of which…………

Cam texts everyone at base camp the updates from his IPad on Castle Number #3 and receives a thumbs up from Rami.
Cam then looks at the clock and notices the time………..

Cam: DAMN IT’S 5:45 ALREADY????!!!!!

Wendy: THAT CASTLE WAS VERY DIFFICULT!!!!

Cam: You can say that again, which explains how we lost track of time and why Herbie charged into the castle to save us.

Wendy: How long did it take you to clear the other castles?

Cam: It only took  me about 15 minutes to clear Morton Koopa Jr.’s Castle, and Wendy Koopa’s Castle took me about 25 minutes.  Both times Herbie stayed put because I cleared them fairly quickly, but because this castle was so difficult, it literally took us almost 2 hours to clear……………….

Troy: He must have sensed that his owners were in trouble, which is why he came to rescue you guys…………..

Wendy: This now makes sense, and I’m so glad he came to rescue us because we would have been in bigger trouble if he hadn’t……………..

Cam: Herbie’s as loyal of a car as any owner would want, and he’s always done whatever it took to protect his owners since the dawn of time.

Soon Herbie drives up to the fence of the horse ranch and sees A LOT of beautiful stallions running about, but one beautiful white stallion chained to the side of a barn catches Cam’s eye………………

Cam: YES!!!!  THAT BEAUTIFUL WHITE STALLION LOOKS PERFECT!!!!!

Troy: CAMARO, ARE YOU CRAZY????!!!!!  THAT THING LOOKS UNTAMEABLE!!!!!

Wendy: I’d hate to say it, but I think I’m with Troy on this one……………..

Cam: Leave it to me, I’ll get it taken care of.

Cam then gets out of Herbie, walks up to the barn, and goes up to talk to Bob the rancher.

Bob: Howdy!!!!  How can I help you????!!!!

Cam: Hello, I’m looking to buy the finest stallion you’ve got…………

Bob: Well you’ve come to the right place because we have lots of them…………..

Cam: How much would you like for the white one next to the barn?

Bob: Excuse me?????!!!!!!

Cam: How much would you like for the fine white stallion???!!!!

Bob: I’m terribly sorry, but Artax is not for sale!!!  That horse is too dangerous, and is scheduled to be put down first thing tomorrow morning.

Cam then opens up his wallet and gets out $200 US Dollars in cash.

Cam: Is $200 US dollars enough for the horse????!!!!!

Bob then stared out of shock, and then grabbed Cam’s hand before shaking it.

Bob: YOUNG MAN, YOU HAVE JUST BOUGHT YOURSELF THE WILDEST, MEANEST, AND POSSIBLY THE FASTEST STALLION IN ALL OF THE MAGIC KINGDOM!!!!!  HAVE AT IT BECAUSE HE IS ALL YOURS!!!!!!

Cam: THANK YOU!!!!!  THANK YOU SO MUCH!!!!!!

Bob: NO, THANK YOU!!!!  YOU’VE JUST SAVED ME FROM AN EXPENSIVE VET BILL, NOW I CAN CANCEL THE APPOINTMENT!!!!  PLUS I CAN NOW TRANSFORM MY FARM HOUSE INTO A MANSION WITH THIS MONEY!!!!!!

Bob the rancher then hands Cam a saddle along with some reins, and Cam makes his way out to the field where all the stallions were running about, but he soon finds the beautiful white stallion named Artax chained to the barn whinnying, rearing up, kicking, and screaming.

Cam: UH-OH!!!!  I can see what he meant, but we need a good and fast stallion, and PRONTO!!!!

Cam slowly approaches the screaming stallion Artax with his palm out in an attempts to calm the wild horse down.

Cam: EASY BOY!!!!!!  EASY…………….I’M NOT HERE TO HURT YOU!!!!  Easy boy………….I’m not gonna hurt you……………..

The horse continues kicking and screaming until Cam gently places his hand on the horse’s snout, and gently calms him down.
Troy’s jaw hits the ground the moment he sees the horse calm down.

Troy: I DON’T GET IT, BUT HOW DOES HE DO THAT??????!!!!!!

Wendy: AMAZING!!!!!!  THAT THING LOOKED LIKE IT WAS ABOUT TO KILL HIM, BUT NOW………………….

Troy: NOW HE LOOKS CALM AND RELAXED!!!!!!!  THIS ALWAYS HAPPENS WHENEVER CAM APPROACHES A HORSE!!!!!!  HE ALWAYS KNOWS HOW TO GET ON THEIR GOOD SIDE!!!!

Cam: It’s gonna be okay Buddy.  I’m gonna get you outta here!!!!  Now hold still.

Using the Megaton Hammer, Cam smashes the chains holding Artax to the wall, and at long last Artax the beautiful white stallion was free.

Cam: AWESOME!!!!!  THAT’S A GOOD BOY, NOW YOU’RE FREE!!!!!

The beautiful stallion reared up and whinnied, now happy to be finally free from being chained to the side of the barn.
Cam then places a set of rains on the stallion’s face before slapping a saddle on his back.
Cam then mounted the horse, gently kicked him in the sides with his feet, and the horse reared up and took off.

Troy: I DO NOT BELIEVE IT!!!!!!

Wendy: WOW!!!!!!  THAT IS AMAZING!!!!!

Cam then rides the beautiful stallion up to the end of the ranch’s fence before the beautiful stallion jumps over the fence and makes his way over to Herbie.

Cam: Alright Troy!!!!!  I got you a horse!!!!

Troy: I can see that, you big show off!!!!  How you manage to calm down a wild horse is something I don’t get.

Cam: Just treat em with respect, and they’ll give you respect.  Much like how it is with people.

Cam then gets off the horse and gives Troy some supplies.

Cam: Here’s a flashlight, some carrots for the horse, and I also packed some club sandwiches in case you get hungry.
I’ve also synced your IPad with mine, so you should have the map that will take you back to base camp.

Troy: Camaro, you’re awesome!!!!

Cam: I do what I can!!!!

Troy then gives Cam and Wendy a big hug before mounting on top of the horse.

Troy: You have come such a long ways Cam, and I’m very proud of you!!!!  You and Wendy keep up the amazing teamwork.

Wendy: Thank you!!!!  We will!!!

Cam: You can count on that!!!!!

Troy: I’ll tell everyone that you 2 are doing just fine, and getting the jobs done!!!!

Cam: Sounds like a good plan!!!!

Troy: I wish you 2 the best of luck in taking down the remaining castles.

Cam: You have a safe journey back to base camp!!!!

Wendy: And tell Princess Erika we said Hi!!!!!

Troy: Most definitely!!!!

Cam and Wendy get back in Herbie as Herbie revs up his engine!!!!!

Cam, Troy, & Wendy: ALRIGHT!!!!  LET’S GET OUT OF HERE!!!!!

Artax the beautiful stallion rears up and whinnies before taking off while Herbie pops a steep angled wheelie with his tires screaming before taking off, and the 2 go their own separate ways.

To Be Continued………………
