Story
Back where we last saw the gang... Everyone gasps in surprise. Before Captain Red Shell can answer, everyone sees the gemstones coming, along with the rest of the gang.
 * Blue Ocean: What's going on!?
 * Blade: It's the end of the world!
 * Boom: Don't be silly Blade! It can't be the end of the world.
 * Blade: Do you have a better idea?
 * Boom: Uh... no... But yours doesn't make any sense.
 * Bonk Choy: So, it has come to this...
 * Starcade: It probably has to be one of Dr. Zack's machines. When was the last time we've seen black crystals growing from the ground?
 * Red Fork: Grim Matchstick said he saw black crystals grow on Inkwell Isle as well.
 * Starcade: Okay? I could've sworn that I know someone with that name.
 * Blue Ocean: My devices sense a large amount of dark energy coming from them.
 * Akasha: I don't know why, but I feel that I've seen such dark energy before. Though it could've been that of my father's.
 * Captain Red Shell: I think I know what this means.
 * Blue Ocean: What?
 * Captain Red Shell: He's back.
 * Tommy: Wait, who's back?
 * Jelo: Hey, gang.
 * Star: *waving frantically* Hiii~!
 * Marco: 'Sup! What's going on?
 * Toby Topaz: Wait, who's back?
 * Gary Garnet: Wait a minute, what's all these black crystals? And did they come out from the ground?
 * Amelia Amethyst: What is going on?
 * Red Ruby: I'll tell you what's going on! *points to Captain Red Shell* We're going to put an end to that traitor once and for all!
 * Sean Sapphire: What?!
 * Red Fork: *lifts Red Ruby with his magic* Hold it right there, Red. We already solved everything. It was just a big misunderstanding.
 * Red Ruby: *to Red Fork* Big misunderstanding, eh? Yeah, right. That happened the last time with Starcade. You expect me to believe that this time?
 * Diana Diamond: Okay, calm down there...
 * Blue Ocean: Yeah, but we have greater things to worry about now.
 * Rebecca: Like what?
 * Blue Ocean: The earthquake?
 * Blast: The black crystals?
 * Alice: And the fact that they're emitting dark energy.
 * Captain Red Shell: This is bad news for sure.
 * Star: Uh....I'm confused.
 * Lisa: Excuse me, but can you shed some light on the situation? Perhaps give us some context on the matter?
 * Akasha: I'm still getting rather familiar vibes from such dark energy. What if my dad's back? That would be the absolute worst...
 * Lincoln: Your dad?
 * Akasha: Shogo the Warlord.

''Coconut Crab leaves to prepare the ship. Meanwhile, the gang sees Jenny, Richard and many others coming as well, concerned about the earthquake and the mysterious black crystals.'' The Gang then hears a voice that cuts through their chatter. Asher rolls his eyes, and points to Tartar. Jenny gets in between them and pushes Asher aside. Asher scowls, and backs off. ''The gang goes to the coast as quick as they can, but on the way, they notice more black crystals spawning from the earth as they go, and another earthquake occurs. The citizens of Echo Creek are scared and running around in panic.'' The gang arrives at the coast, where Coconut Crab has prepared Captain Red Shell's ship. ''Once everyone in the gang is aboard Captain Red Shell's ship, the crab captain gives the order to Coconut Crab to set sail. The ship moves away from the coast and begins its way to the old pyramids of the ancient shadowfish.'' ''Suddenly, an earthquake happens again. This time, the seismic activity causes the ship to shake in the water, as the gang sees large waves form due to the earthquake.'' Captain Red Shell grabs the steering wheel, and struggles to control the ship, that is currently being shaked from side to side by the large waves. While the ship is being shaked by the waves, the gang looks up ahead, and sees a huge wave being formed. Jaiden attempts to freeze the huge wave, but fails. The three ice ninjas try to freeze the huge wave, and together, they are able to do it. ''The waves continue to move the ship side to side, but Captain Red Shell struggles at the steering wheel to keep the ship on track. Soon, the earthquake ends, and the water begins to calm down.'' ''The ship continues on its way. The ship now reaches an antarctic region with several icebergs floating in the water.'' ''Red Ruby throws his explosives at the icebergs. The icebergs blow up, letting the ship pass without any trouble.'' ''Gary Guppy tosses bombs at the icebergs, blowing them up too. Soon, Red Ruby and Gary Guppy have cleared the way for the ship to continue.'' However, the gang sees an iceberg approach them, with several penguins on it, including one that Captain Red Shell and Akasha recognize immediately. ''The penguins hop onto the ship. Gary Guppy, Starry and Blowy hide from the penguins, while Captain Red Shell grabs his sword, and Coconut Crab takes out his spear.'' Lincoln attempts to lift Red Fork back on the ship. Akasha releases a volley of flames, melting the ice on the deck and burning Peter the Penguin. Peter Penguin runs around yelling, and finally jumps into the water to put off the flames. ''Peter Penguin jumps out of the water, and lands on the ship. He puts on an ice crown, and takes out a huge hammer.'' Peter the Penguin spins the hammer around, hitting several members of the gang at once. ''Peter the Penguin charges towards Captain Red Shell, but Captain Red Shell jumps to avoid the attack. Captain Red Shell then slashes his sword at Peter the Penguin. Peter the Penguin gets up and spins around with his hammer, hitting Captain Red Shell in the process.'' ''Red Fork teleports to above Peter the Penguin, and attempts smashing him. This causes heavy damage on the flightless bird, but Peter the Penguin soon reacts by pushing Red Fork off of him and slamming him with his hammer.'' ''Akasha levitates the hammer out of Peter the Penguin's wings and high enough so that Peter the Penguin is unable to grab it back. Peter Penguin then whistles. Several penguins come out of the water, and tackle Akasha, making her drop the hammer, allowing Peter the Penguin to grab it back.'' ''Peter the Penguin charges towards Akasha to slam her with his hammer. However, Captain Red Shell intercepts Peter the Penguin and slashes him with his sword.'' ''Peter the Penguin continuously slams Captain Red Shell with his hammer. Red Fork then sees a chest in Captain Red Shell's ship, and looks inside it. He finds a sword, a wheel and a hammer.'' ''Peter the Penguin runs towards Red Fork to slam him with his hammer. Red Fork jumps to dodge Peter the Penguin's attack, and then hits him with the hammer once.'' Both of them continue to slam each other with their hammers, until Peter the Penguin hits Red Fork with a powerful hammer slam, making him drop the hammer. Akasha flies towards Peter the Penguin before punching him, sending him flying out of the ship and into the water again. Akasha flies around the ship at a fast speed, clearing the deck of the remaining penguins and sending them flying into the water. ''The ship continues moving on. After a couple of hours more of travel, the ship finally arrives at the location where the pyramids of the ancient shadowfish are.'' The gang dives underwater and swims to the pyramids of the ancient shadowfish. ''The gang swims as quickly as they can to the largest pyramid. When they enter the pyramid, they find that it's completely dark inside it.'' ''The gang advances towards the center of the pyramid, where the amulet is. However, on the way, Tommy accidentally steps a tile, triggering a trap. Suddenly several bows appear in the walls, and begin to fire arrows.'' ''Blue Ocean accidentally leans on a tile in the wall, activating yet another trap. This time, a huge boulder is rolling towards them.'' ''The gang swims as fast as they can to avoid the boulder that's coming towards them. They continue to swim through the hallway, until they see a door in the wall.'' The gang swims into the door. ''The gang finds themselves now in the central chamber of the pyramid. However, Akasha soon notices that the Amulet of the Dark Seas isn't where it should be.'' ''Suddenly, the gang is hit by a powerful shadow wave. After this, the gang watches Captain Dark Shell show up in the room.'' Captain Dark Shell uses his sword to shoot a powerful shadow wave at Sean, before slashing him repeatedly until he's unconscious. Captain Dark Shell teleports to behind Akasha, and delivers powerful slashes at her, leaving her very weak. ''Captain Red Shell tries to confront Captain Dark Shell, but Captain Dark Shell teleports around Captain Red Shell, attacking him quickly without giving him a single chance to retaliate. Soon Captain Red Shell is left just as weak as Akasha.'' ''Akasha teleports to behind Captain Dark Shell, despite being weaker than before, before firing shadow blasts at him quickly while teleporting quickly to dodge Captain Dark Shell's attacks. Captain Dark Shell deflects the shadow blasts with his sword.'' ''Captain Dark Shell waves his sword around in a circular movement. Suddenly, the water in the room begins to spin around as if this was a whirlpool, causing the gang to spin around with the water.'' ''Red Fork tries to shoot magic blasts at Captain Dark Shell, but is unable to aim correctly due to being pulled around with the water just like the rest of the gang. Captain Dark Shell makes the spinning motion stop.'' ''Ace shoots several shadow blasts at Captain Dark Shell, but the crsutacean teleports to behind Ace, and slashes at him with his sword. Ace takes damage, and turns around, only to be blown into a wall by a might shadow wave.'' ''Blast, Electra, Alice, Boom and Blade attack Captain Dark Shell at the same time, but this turns out to be useless, since Captain Dark Shell teleports out of the way, and then uses a shadow art to levitate the five teenagers, and toss them into a wall. The toss was so strong that the five teens not only hit the wall, but go through it, leaving a hole in the wall, and the five teens unconscious.'' ''Richard and his friends attack Captain Dark Shell together, only to face a quick defeat just like the previous group. They are left unconscious after Captain Dark Shell slashed them heavily with his sword.'' ''Kyoji fires a powerful ice wave from his sword at Captain Dark Shell, Takeshi fires lightning bolts at Captain Dark Shell and Sasuke tosses water bombs at Captain Dark Shell. Captain Dark Shell simply teleports away from the attacks, and reappears above the three elemental ninjas, delivering quick sword slashes, and shadow waves, managing to defeat the three elemental ninjas.'' ''Red Fork charges towards Captain Dark Shell to perform a ramming attack. However, before Red Fork can even get close to the shady crustacean, Captain Dark Shell sues a shadow art to levitate Red Fork, and toss him into Starcade, Blue Ocean and Green Shadow, leaving them defeated as well.'' ''Jaiden, Cypher-Den and Rebecca do a three elemental combo. However, Captain Dark Shell then takes out an object that he had been hiding with him... The Amulet of the Dark Seas!'' ''Captain Dark Shell uses the Amulet of the Dark Seas to counter the three elemental combo. He then teleports to where the three girls are, and unleashed a shadow explosion around him, defeating the three elemental ninjas.'' Captain Dark Shell slashes at the two warriors, leaving Captain Red Shell unconscious, while Ace was able to defend himself with his shield. ''Captain Dark Shell and Ace fight each other, but Captain Dark Shell obviously has the upper hand. As Ace gets weaker, the few members of the gang that are left watch in horror. Ace tries teleporting to behind Captain Dark Shell to surprise him with a shadow blast, but Captain Dark Shell teleports away before Ace can even do the attack.'' ''Captain Dark Shell slashes at Ace several times, while Ace keeps up his Ace Shield to protect himself. After the battle continues on, Captain Dark Shell has Ace cornered.'' ''Captain Dark Shell slashes repeatedly at Ace, until one of his slashes causes Ace to drop the shield, leaving him defenseless. The gang gasps.'' ''Captain Dark Shell stabs Ace with the sword, causing him to fall unconscious. The remaining members of the gang gasp in horror as they see Ace, one of their strongest allies, fall unconscious to Captain Dark Shell's sword. Captain Dark Shell then pulls the sword back out, and stares at the gang, intimidating the few members that are left.'' ''Captain Dark Shell takes out the Amulet of the Dark Seas, and places it on his sword. Suddenly, the amulet and the sword begin to glow, causing a dark, dimensional portal to appear. The portal begins to suck in all the members of the gang, both conscious and unconscious.'' ''Despite how much they try, the gang is unable to escape the portal, and they are all sucked into the portal. Captain Dark Shell then lookes into the portal, ready to say some last words to the gang.'' ''Captain Dark Shell now takes the amulet off of his sword, causing the portal to disappear, thus closing connection between the two dimensions, and leaving the gang sealed in the dark and unsettling lands of the Shadow Dimension. The gang finds themselves now trapped in a dark world that seems taken out of a horror movie.'' Slowly, the unconscious members of the gang begin to wake up. ''Suddenly, the gang sees a floating machine approach them, with a unicorn inside. The unicorn is gray with dark blue hair.'' Shadow Spark presses a button, and a large wrecking ball comes out of the bottom of the machine, connected to the machine with a chain. Shadow Spark drives the machine around the gang, swinging the wrecking ball towards them. Green Shadow blasts an ice beam at the wrecking ball, slowing it down. Shadow Spark presses a button, causing the effects of the ice beam to wear off of the wrecking ball. ''Shadow Spark swings the wrecking ball towards Red Fork. Red Fork manages to dodge it by a few inches, and the wrecking ball ends up destroying the tree behind Red Fork.'' Kyoji charges towards the chain connecting the wrecking ball to the machine, before using his Sword of Elementia to break the chain. Shadow Spark presses another button,and his Spark-o-matic suddenly transforms into a huge dragon-shaped robot. ''The Dragon-bot shoots flames out of its mouth. Electra creates an electric forcefield to protect the gang from the flames.'' Sasuke tosses water bombs into the Dragon-bot's mouth. The Dragon-bot flies towards the gang, trying to crash into them. ''Sasuke spins around, before creating a hurricane that charges towards the Dragon-bot, washing it away from the gang. The Dragon-bot begins to fail due the water in its system, until finally, the Dragon-bot explodes, leaving Shadow Spark sitting on a bunch of metal pieces.'' ''The gang hurries to Darkburbia. Meanwhile, in Echo Creek, the citizens are panicking because of the black crystals that are appearing everywhere. However, they soon spot a dark crab coming to the coast.'' Captain Dark Shell lifts his sword up in the army, summoning an army of shadow crab warriors. ''The shadow crab warriors charge towards Iron Heart and Windy Sails. Iron Heart shoots magic blasts at them, and Windy Sail tries attacking as well, but the army overpowers them, leading to a quick defeat to dozens of swords.'' Captain Dark Shell waves his sword around Iron Heart and Windy Sails, trapping them in shadow bubbles. ''Captain Dark Shell leads his army of shadow crab warriors into the city. The citizens panic even more when they see the shadow crabs enter the city, and begin to attack everything in their way.'' Sakura, along with Nutty, Mimic, Hissy, Chimp and Leech, proceed to join the fight against Captain Dark Shell's army of shadow crab warriors. ''Captain Dark Shell shoots a large shadow wave at Sakura, rendering her light powers useless. Meanwhile, the army of shadow crab soldiers is overwhelming Emma's advisors.'' ''Leech flies swiftly towards one of the shadow crab soldiers, before biting it by the neck. However, she flinches after biting it, due to the shell protecting the neck from her teeth.'' ''The shadow crab warriors continue to overwhelm the advisors. Meanwhile, Captain Dark Shell levitates Sakura with a shadow art, and tosses her against the wall, only to levitate her again and toss her into a rock. He then delivers several slashes with his sword, and finishes off with a shadow wave, effectively defeating Sakura.'' Leech flies off to find more allies, while Nutty, Mimic, Hissy and Chimp stay behind to defend the city. ''Captain Dark Shell is seen delivering a dangerous slash on the advisors. Meanwhile, back in the Shadow Dimension, the gang is now in Darkburbia, ready to fight the first villain on the list.  The gang proceeds to look for Dark Re-Peat Boss' base.'' The gang follows Green Shadow, who manages to locate Dark Re-Peat Boss' base after a while. The gang enters Dark Re-Peat Boss' base, ready to confront the villain. ??? #2 rushes out from the shadows, revealing himself to what appears to be a dark version of Boss Choy, who punches Star in the face and sends her flying into a wall. ''The rainbow blast gets deflected. ??? #1 emerges, revealing himself to be Dark Re-Peat Boss in his Moss-Bot.'' Dark Re-Peat Boss presses a button, causing his Moss-Bot to fire a glowing green energy sphere at Dark Boss Choy, making him significantly stronger than before. Dark Boss Choy charges towards the gang, before raining punches at them, sending a few members flying into a wall. Red Fork charges towards Dark Boss Choy, sending him flying into a wall with his weight. ''Dark Boss Choy proceeds to grab Bonk Choy and Re-Peat Moss at once, before tossing them at Red Fork. Red Fork manages to dodge them though.'' ''Dark Boss Choy charges towards Red Fork while he is dodging, only for Red Fork to use his magic to teleport out of the way. He then appears above Dark Boss Choy, and lands on him, smashing him with his weight.'' ''Electra shoots electric bolts at the Moss-bot, Blade shoots cutting blades while jumping around in erratic patterns, Scorch shoots powerful fire blasts, and Boom charges straight into the Moss-bot to deliver powerful punches. Dark Re-Peat Boss sees this coming, and proceeds to press the button on the Moss-bot, activating a forcefield around it to protect itself and Dark Re-Peat Boss from the incoming attacks. Dark Re-Peat Boss presses another button, activating a missile launcher that fires homing missiles at Electra, Blade, Scorch and Boom, exploding upon contact and sending them flying into walls.'' The Moss-Bot continues firing homing missiles at the gang. ''Dark Boss Choy uses his strength to push Red Fork away from him, before concentrating his strength again to pound the ground and cause an earthquake. The earthquake created by Dark Boss Choy causes most of the gang members standing on the ground to trip and fall.'' ''Red Fork jumps and hits the ground, causing another earthquake. This one is strong enough to cause a few walls to collapse. Several objects begin to fall around the room.'' ''As more objects begin to fall around the room, Dark Boss Choy grabs them and throws them at the gang. The objects combined with the Moss-Bot's homing missiles manage to destroy Blue Ocean's forcefield, leaving the gang exposed. However, Amelia Amethyst creates another forcefield just in time.'' Red Fork levitates many of the falling objects, before he begins to toss them at Dark Boss Choy and Dark Re-Peat Boss, tossing several objects per second. ''Dark Boss Choy punches the objects tossed at him, deflecting then back at the gang. Starcade rushes to Dark Boss Choy while he is not looking, before pinning him down to the ground.'' ''Starcade grabs Dark Boss Choy by the arms, before slamming him repeatedly on the ground. She proceeds to lift Dark Boss Choy up high in the air, before throwing him headfirst into a wall, defeating him. Starcade proceeds to check Dark Boss Choy, but is unable to find the shard anywhere.'' ''Many members of the gang begin to spam their attacks at the same time. However, the Moss-Bot's forcefield deflects the attacks, before the Moss-Bot fires more homing missiles back at the gang.'' Blast, Scorch, Electra, Rebecca and Jason perform a five elemental combo, destroying the forcefield. ''The gang begins to spam attacks at the Moss-bot again, overwhelming it to the point of defeat. Dark Re-Peat Boss jumps out of the Moss-Bot right before it explodes.'' Blue Ocean writes a check next to "Dark Re-Peat Boss on the list". ''The gang makes their way to Dark Baker Alley. Meanwhile, in Baker Street, the cookies see the shadow crab soldiers invading their home. The shadow crab soldiers are destroying buildings, starting fires, and robbing everything they find.'' Captain Dark Shell then sees Assorted Cookie steps out.
 * Captain Red Shell: Yes, Shogo is a dangerous shadow threat, but this isn't his doing. These crystals... I've only seen them once, and that's in the ancient scrolls of the shadowfish.
 * Electra: The shadowfish!?
 * Boom: That only means... that the one behind this is...
 * Captain Red Shell: Captain Dark Shell.
 * Jelo: Captain Dark Shell....? Excuse me, but I've been travelling around the world battling threats outside Echo Creek. I don't get anything you say!￼
 * Marco: As for me and Star, we've been going on adventures across other dimensions.
 * Starcade: I've been texting to you about our adventures. Didn't you read them?
 * Jelo: Poor signal. Airplane mode. Being busy. These three explain everything. So far, I've only read about Opposite Blast and his gang becoming good. And Akasha becoming good too, although that was weeks ago.
 * Starcade: That's pretty sad, dude.
 * Gerald: Well, now that I've read all of them just about now, I'm up to date with just about everything! In addition, I'm also kinda disappointed with Red Ruby now.
 * Red Ruby: Excuse me?!
 * Boom: You heard correctly. I'd be disappointed too to have a friend like you if I was Jelo.
 * Red Ruby: I'd be more than disappointed to have a ex-villain like you as a friend!
 * Akasha: Captain Dark Shell again? Who even released him from the Shadow Dimension?
 * Captain Red Shell: I don't know, but I do know what we need to do.
 * Red Fork: What is it?
 * Captain Red Shell: We'll need to travel to the pyramids of the ancient shadowfish. There we'll be able to find out what happened, and we'll return Captain Dark Shell to the Shadow Dimension before he causes any damage. We must hurry though, or else he'll conquer the entire world, just as he tried to do in the past.
 * Akasha: Just like my father would. Yeah, I won't let that crab do that.
 * Green Shadow: Where's the pyramids?
 * Akasha: If only I can recall...*thinks hard but is unable to remember where*...darn, I forgot! Captain Red Shell, do you remember where they are?
 * Captain Red Shell: Certainly. Coconut Crab, prepare the ship. We're heading to the ancient pyramids of the shadowfish.
 * Coconut Crab: Aye aye, captain!
 * Richard: What's with the crystals and the earthquake?
 * Bonk Choy: Hey, it's Richard Melon!
 * Akasha: What are you doing here, Richard? Captain Dark Shell is back, get out while you still can!
 * Richard: No, I cannot. I've gotta help you guys. No matter how much of a threat this Captain Dark Shell guy is, I have to.
 * Akasha: Okay, but tell me something: Do you even know who Captain Dark Shell is?
 * Richard: To be honest, not really. Can you tell me more?
 * Akasha: Certainly. Captain Dark Shell is one of the most powerful shadow ninjas there is. He looks a little like Captain Red Shell if I do recall correctly. He was sealed away by the ancient shadowfish into the Shadow Dimension due to attempting to conquer the entire world by himself. Captain Dark Shell is basically similar to my father, but only a crab. Captain Red Shell and I encountered him once and I never forgot how much that shadow crab had hurt him in many ways. So yes, he's too dangerous for the likes of you and your friends.
 * Richard: Okay. But hey, we still have a chance of succeeding! Even if he's that dangerous.
 * Kernely: I honestly agree with you, Rick.
 * Akasha: This is nothing to say "Okay" about! You'll know how dangerous he is once you meet him. Trust me, I've fought him before.
 * Richard: Fine.
 * Jenny: I rounded up all of my allies, and here to say- what the heck is going on here?
 * Nebula: I've never seen crystals like this before... I'm kinda concerned...
 * Kyoji: Long story short, Captain Dark Shell did this. He's basically one of the most powerful shadow ninjas who plans to conquer the entire world.
 * Asher: What's the cause for worry? It's probably just some funky phenomenon....
 * Jack: I'm not sure.... I'm thinking there's a ringleader to this all.
 * Kimbery: You don't think it could be....
 * Galaximus: Before you point fingers, I have done nothing wrong! TARTAR! Elaborate!
 * Commander Tartar: My databases have been picking up nothing but blanks on this whole [SLANG_NOT_FOUND]. But I assure you, Sheila has done no such deeds.
 * Rose: But- if you did not do it.... who did?
 * Tartar: ME?!
 * Asher: It who declared it, dealt it.
 * Tartar: You're gonna be dealing with a funeral in a minute....
 * Asher: What was that?! *He gets it Tartar's face.* Say that again, you outdated piece of....
 * Jenny: Easy, easy! We don't need any more conflict on top of our current problem!
 * Starcade: That was weird.
 * Richard: I've honestly gotta agree with you, Starcade.
 * Green Shadow: If we're done with pointless arguing, we can move on to fight Captain Dark Shell now.
 * Galaximus: That low life?
 * Jenny: Huh... Why is he doing this?
 * Akasha: I told you, he wants to conquer the world.
 * Green Shadow: So, we have to get going!
 * Captain Red Shell: Follow me to the coast. Coconut Crab will have the ship ready for us to go and stop Captain Dark Shell.
 * Alice: Hopefully it won't be too late.
 * Akasha: There's no such thing as "too late"! We will defeat Captain Dark Shell!
 * Bonk Choy: But...
 * Kyoji: Akasha has a point there.
 * Jelo: True. It's never too late to save the world.
 * Bonk Choy: I'm still scared though.
 * Toby Topaz: Me too...
 * Red Ruby: Don't be such cowards! We gotta get going!
 * Sean Sapphire: So, what are we waiting for? Let's head to the coast!
 * Jenny: Yeah!
 * Jelo: Let's go.
 * Tommy: Whoa... the earth is shaking even more!
 * Marco: Why's everyone running scared?
 * Lisa: According to my calculations, the seismic activity is increasing exponentially.
 * Blue Ocean: That's not good.
 * Blast: What does that mean in english?
 * Alice: It means that the earthquakes are getting stronger and are happening more frequently.
 * Captain Red Shell: Hence why we must hurry.
 * Jenny: Wait, you're saying that this crab captain can cause earthquakes?
 * Captain Red Shell: Yes.
 * Blue Ocean: And here I thought the only one that could cause earthquakes was Red Fork's weight. *laughs at his own joke, only to realize that no one is laughing* Tough crowd...
 * Bonk Choy: Yeah, not exactly that funny...
 * Captain Red Shell: This is no time for comedy Blue Ocean. If Captain Dark Shell is free from the Shadow Dimension, the world is in great danger.
 * Jelo: So, is this Captain Dark Shell really that powerful?
 * Captain Red Shell: Yes. Everything is recorded in the scrolls from the ancient shadowfish. Thousands of years ago, Captain Dark Shell was being trained as a shadow ninja. He excelled in his training, and knew that he was meant for big things. The only problem is that no one ever realized how dangerous Captain Dark Shell was becoming. One day, when the Shadow Sensei refused to give him access to the greatest secrets of the shadow arts, Captain Dark Shell claimed that he would get them himself. He challenged the Shadow Sensei, but ultimately was defeated, and humilliated in front of his peers. Captain Dark Shell, furious, stole the secrets from the Shadow Sensei one night, and with his newfound power, become one of the most dangerous shadow ninjas to ever exist.
 * Lemon Glass: Oh my...
 * Captain Red Shell: He had already been trained in the Crab Empire, and used his power to steal treasures from ancient underwater civilizations. He attacked other dojos, trying to seize their secrets as well. He never got enough knowledge to become a certified ninja in any other element, but along with his travels across the world, he got enough power and skill to become a threat to the world. He attempted to take over the entire world. The Shadow Sensei and the other shadow ninjas knew Captain Dark Shell had to be stopped. Luckily, there was one ancient artifact that Captain Dark Shell never took control of: The Amulet of the Dark Seas. It's an ancient artifact that was guarded by the civilization of the ancient shadowfish. Using the power of that amulet, the shadow ninjas were able to seal Captain Dark Shell off into the Shadow Dimension, with no way to return.
 * Jaiden: If that's the case, then how could he have escaped?
 * Captain Red Shell: Well, you see, the Amulet of the Dark Seas is kept in the largest pyramid of the now extinct civilization of the shadowfish. As long as it is kept in place, Captain Dark Shell will be trapped int he Shadow Dimension with no way to escape. However, a while ago, the Amulet of the Dark Seas was removed from its location.
 * Starry: Yeah, I remember that. *looks at Akasha*
 * Akasha: What?
 * Captain Red Shell: What matters it that when the amulet was moved, that could've interrupted the flow of dark energy inside it. We eventually managed to put it back into place, sending the evil crustacean back to the Shadow Dimension, but that short interruption in the flow of dark energy could've been enough to weaken the spell. With the spell weakened, Captain Dark Shell might have found some way to connect to our dimension. In any case, we must get to the bottom of the problem, and solve it quickly.
 * Akasha: That's right. And it appears things are getting worse and worse as his presence remains.
 * Takeshi: So who is responsible for moving the Amulet of the Dark Seas out of its place again?
 * Akasha: Probably Discord. Or Storm Cloud. It could be anyone, brother! In that case, we have to find that shadow crab now!
 * Captain Red Shell: Well, our ship is ready.
 * Coconut Crab: All aboard!
 * Jelo: Well, there's no time to lose. Let's go stop Captain Dark Shell!
 * Nebula: So, we're going to the pyramids of the shadowfish, if I understood correctly?
 * Captain Red Shell: Exactly.
 * Red Fork: And then we're going to show that shadow crab who's boss!
 * Richard: Yeah!
 * Captain Red Shell: Well, he's much tougher than you think. In fact, Akasha and I couldn't defeat him. The only way we stopped him was sealing him into the Shadow Dimension.
 * Jenny: But that was with only you two to fight him, right?
 * Akasha: Yes. Needless to say, it has been one of our toughest fights.
 * Jaiden: Jenny has a point. I'm sure that if we all work together, we'll have a much better chance of defeating him.
 * Blowy: Hopefully. That evil captain is very scary.
 * Toby Topaz: Yeah...
 * Green Shadow: However it has to happen, we can defeat Captain Dark Shell together! Or at the very least seal him in the Shadow Dimension again.
 * Red Ruby: If we're done talking, can we set sail now?
 * Captain Red Shell: We're at it.
 * Sean Sapphire: This brings back so many memories, like our constant battles with Captain Blowhole and his crew, and that one time Akasha betrayed us. Wow, I can't believe how long it has been since my last sea adventure on a ship.
 * Diana Diamond: Except the fact that Akasha isn't going to betray us this time.
 * Sean Sapphire: I know that. I still can't help but feel skeptical after thinking about it.
 * Toby Topaz: At least I feel more comfortable going to the pyramids this time, now that we have more friends with us.
 * Amelia Amethyst: Yeah, the more the merrier!
 * Blowy: Agreed.
 * Jaiden: Yeah, what could possibly go wrong?
 * Red Ruby: You just had to ask, didn't you?
 * Tommy: Aah!
 * Alice: The earthquake is causing tsunami waves!
 * Star: Yikes!
 * Blowy: This is it, we're gonna die!
 * Captain Red Shell: Not yet, sailor. Stand tall and be brave! We'll make it through any storm!
 * Blue Ocean: Technically, it's a tsunami caused by an earthquake.
 * Bonk Choy: Are you talking about the Ancient God-Element guys or...?
 * Starcade: I'm pretty sure he isn't.
 * Captain Red Shell: The point is still the same!
 * Marco: I don't really feel too good.... *about to throw up*
 * Bonk Choy: Does this ship have buckets or something? *pukes into the ocean*
 * Lincoln: Giant wave ahead!
 * Luan: Maybe it just wants to wave hello?
 * Marco: Too soon!
 * CypherDen: Hey Jaiden, do you think you can freeze that wave?
 * Jaiden: Good idea! I'll try.
 * Jaiden: Darn! Well, it was worth a shot...
 * Blast: How about we try doing it together?
 * Kyoji: That's a great idea. Let's do it. *charges up an ice blast*
 * Jaiden: Y'know what? That could possibly work!
 * Blast: We did it!
 * Captain Red Shell: Well done!
 * Rebecca: Hey, the earthquake stopped!
 * Bonk Choy: Yay!
 * Toby Topaz: Phew, we can finally have a smooth sailing ahead!
 * Sean Sapphire: I don't know, I fear this earthquake is only the smallest of our troubles.
 * Blue Ocean: Icebergs up ahead!
 * Blast: Look out! We don't want to end up like the Titanic!
 * Red Ruby: I know! Why don't I blow up those icebergs?
 * Sean Sapphire: You know what, that's not a bad idea. It's worth a shot.
 * Red Ruby: Well then, here I go!
 * Starry: It's working!
 * Gary Guppy: I wanna help too!
 * Sean Sapphire: Impressive.
 * Red Ruby: No big deal, Sean. Happy to blow things up.
 * Amelia Amethyst: We're nowhere near the pyramids, are we?
 * Captain Red Shell: Not yet, but we're getting closer.
 * Akasha: Hey, it's Peter the Penguin!
 * Bonk Choy: Wait, are you just naming a random penguin "Peter"?
 * Akasha: That's not just any random penguin, his name IS Peter! And that means...
 * Amelia Amethyst: The sea creatures are in danger!
 * Star: So wait...you know that penguin? Cool!
 * Starry: It's not cool!
 * Star: Uh, why?
 * Peter the Penguin: Look what the breeze has brought us today.
 * Random Penguin #1: It's a sushi bar!
 * Gerald: Uh, most of us aren't fish, y'know.
 * Red Fork: Hey, back off, oversized penguin!
 * Peter the Penguin: So, they brought more friends this time? No worries. Penguins, let's get ready for lunch!
 * Captain Red Shell: Leave the ship immediately.
 * Coconut Crab: Do as the captain says.
 * Peter the Penguin: Sorry, but we're not going anywhere. Nothing personal, but this is how the food chain works. I'm the predator, and you're the prey!
 * Red Fork: And what does that make me? *charges towards Peter Penguin*
 * Peter Penguin: Stupid. *uses his ice breathe to freeze the deck, causing Red Fork to slide across the deck and almost fall into the freezing ocean*
 * Red Fork: Whoa! *grabs on to the edge of the ship* Well, that's no good.
 * Lincoln: I'll help you!
 * Akasha: Sorry, Peter, but the kitchen here is closed!
 * Peter the Penguin: Aagh!
 * Scorch: On fire!
 * Peter the Penguin: What?
 * Scorch: You're on fire! *shoots large fire blasts at Peter the Penguin, setting him on fire*
 * Peter the Penguin: Aah! I'm burning! Aah!
 * Akasha: That's right, away you go.
 * Kyoji: Well done, Akasha.
 * Akasha: Thanks.
 * Bonk Choy: What do we do with these remaining penguins? *grabs and throws several penguins into the water at once*
 * Captain Red Shell: Get rid of them. *slashes the penguins away*
 * Red Fork: *gets back onto the ship* Whoa... who knew a penguin would be such a cold opponent? *laughs a bit* See what I did there?
 * Blue Ocean: *facepalm*
 * Peter Penguin: *emerges from the water* You think this is over? No way!
 * Peter Penguin: Time for round two. The king's round!
 * Blue Ocean: What the?
 * Peter the Penguin: It's clobbering time!
 * Blast: Ok, this is officially weird.
 * Akasha: Enough, Peter! You know very well you have no chance in eating our friends here, so just get out of here unless you want yourself some pain. *teleports away from Peter the Penguin to dodge his hammer*
 * Captain Red Shell: Alright, it is time to end this. *takes out his sword*
 * Peter the Penguin: I'm gonna clobber you and your friends! And then us penguins will have lunch!
 * Red Fork: That's it, I'm in!
 * Akasha: Alright, that's it. Hammer time is over, little birdie.
 * Peter the Penguin: There's nothing you can do against the king of penguins!
 * Captain Red Shell: Don't even try it.
 * Peter the Penguin: Whack-a-crab time!
 * Red Fork: I think I know what I'm going to choose. *comes towards Peter the Penguin* Hey, oversized penguin! You're not the only guy with a hammer now! *shows that he has a hammer too*
 * Peter the Penguin: You copycat!
 * Red Fork: I'm a pony, not a cat. Get your facts right.
 * Peter the Penguin: Hey, you'll pay for that!
 * Red Fork: Ouch...
 * Peter the Penguin: Penguin power!Meanwhile, Akasha easily shakes the penguins off of her, before firing a shadow blast at Peter the Penguin. The shadow blast deals heavy damage to him and also makes him drop his hammer.
 * Akasha: It's pathetic considering you thought you actually stood a chance against us.
 * Peter the Penguin: I'll be baaaaaack! *falls into the water*
 * Blast: Whoa, that was awesome!
 * Akasha: And there's more to come!
 * Bonk Choy: Welp, it's over, I guess.
 * Akasha: That penguin inflicted some pretty major damage to the ship. What a nuisance he was.
 * Sean Sapphire: I think we should move on now.
 * Captain Red Shell: You're right.
 * Jelo: That guys\ was pretty tough for a penguin.
 * Lemon Glass: I just hope we don't have to encounter him again.
 * Captain Red Shell: Coconut Crab, let's continue!
 * Coconut Crab: Aye aye, captain!
 * Captain Red Shell: This is it. We're here.
 * Red Ruby: About time!
 * Starcade: Huh, I don't see the pyramids anywhere.
 * Akasha: Well, they're underwater. We've got our diving suits, so we're good.
 * Green Shadow: You're right. We have to hurry, I'm not sure what Captain Dark Shell is up to but we have to find him quick!
 * Red Fork: Well, what are we waiting for? Let's get on those diving suits and go check out the pyramids!
 * Green Shadow: If we're ready, we can set off.
 * Captain Red Shell: Remember, we're looking for the largest pyramid. That's where the Amulet of Dark Seas should be.
 * Jenny: So, that one over there? *points at the largest pyramid*
 * Captain Red Shell: Exactly.
 * Richard: Yep.
 * Akasha: Yes, it's that one.
 * Starcade: That's one cool-looking pyramid!
 * Green Shadow: We can talk more about it later.
 * Bonk Choy: Full speed ahead!
 * Blowy: Eek!
 * Tommy: I can't see anything!
 * Red Ruby: I can't see my own dynamite stick in front of my face!
 * Corolla: There's no light in here!
 * Diana Diamond: We need light to continue!
 * Amelia Amethyst: Easy! *sheds some light with her magic wand* If only Sakura were here, she could've lit up the pyramid completely.
 * Akasha: Then again, too much darkness renders her powers useless.
 * Red Ruby: Enough talk, let's blast our way to the amulet!
 * Red Fork: Yeah, let's go.
 * Blovy: Eek!
 * Marco: Everyone! Run!
 * Lisa: I believe you mean swim, since we're currently underwater.
 * Boom: It doesn't matter!
 * Marco: No time for corrections, we're about to get shot by arrows!
 * Tommy: Yikes!
 * Blue Ocean: Take cover! *creates a forcefield around the gang*.
 * Kernely: Phew, that was close.
 * Jenny: Yeah.
 * Blue Ocean: Good thing I'm quick with the forcefield. Pretty awesome, huh? Heh heh...
 * Red Fork: Look at what you've done!
 * Blue Ocean: Well, would you do it better?
 * Electra: Shut up and get moving!
 * Jelo: You've heard Electra, let's move!
 * Alice: Quick, let's go in there!
 * Amelia Amethyst: Good call!
 * Red Ruby: How did these traps return after the last time Gary Guppy and I blew them up?
 * Sean Sapphire: No time for that question, into the door!
 * Blast: Phew. Now that was even closer.
 * Captain Red Shell: Gang, we have arrived to the central chamber.
 * Akasha: Hey, the Amulet is gone! Well, someone obviously has been here.
 * Sean Sapphire: At least we know for sure Captain Dark Shell has been released from the Shadow Dimension.
 * Blowy: Oh no... that's not good!
 * Starry: But where is the amulet? And where is Captain Dark Shell?
 * Green Shadow: So that's how Captain Dark Shell looks like?
 * Akasha: That's right.
 * Captain Dark Shell: No tourists allowed.
 * Akasha: And no jerks like you allowed.
 * Sean Sapphire: Oooh, burn!!!
 * Captain Dark Shell: Here's your burn, brainless gem.
 * Captain Dark Shell: Does anyone else have something "smart" to say?
 * Akasha: Why don't you go back to the Shadow Dimension where you belong?
 * Captain Dark Shell: I challenge you to make me return!
 * Captain Red Shell: Take on someone form your own species, knight without any honor.
 * Captain Dark Shell: Honor? Honor is just a pathetic excuse made by weak and idiotic warrior in a useless attempt to overcome those who are stronger and smarter.
 * Captain Dark Shell: Do you guys think you're special? I don't care how many idiots you've defeated, anyone who challenges me is signing a death contract.
 * Akasha: Whatever. Do you think you're special yourself? I don't care how much of an idiot you are by thinking so, but anyone who challenges me is earning themselves a one-way ticket to hell.
 * Akasha: Simple fool, do you think you can't be defeated without being trapped in the Shadow Dimension?
 * Captain Dark Shell: Poor little souls. You think you have a chance against me.
 * Jelo: Whoa!
 * Richard: What's going on!?
 * Captain Dark Shell: What's the matter?
 * Red Fork: Oh, I'm going to get you good this time!
 * Ace: This is the end of the line, Captain Dark Shell.
 * Captain Dark Shell: Yes it is, but it's your line that will be ending.
 * Blast: Jason!
 * Captain Dark Shell: It's time you face the reality, gang. You're not the great heroes you thought you were. Every single victory you've had is just a result of luck on your behalf, and embarassing incompetence of the foes you call, "villains".
 * Blast: You're going to pay for this!
 * Alice: We're going to show you some respect!
 * Boom: Bring it on, edgy crab!
 * Electra: We'll take you down!
 * Blade: And we'll cut you down to size!
 * Captain Dark Shell: Oh, really?
 * Captain Dark Shell: So soon? We're just warming up.
 * Richard: Wait until you see what I can do!
 * Kernely: We won't let you hurt our friends!
 * Captain Dark Shell: How many more of you will have to fall before you realize that you cannot win?
 * Kyoji: Numbers don't matter, Captain. What matters is honor and the heart for battle.
 * Takeshi: We're going to show you why you should never mess with the elemental ninjas!
 * Sasuke: Get ready to be sent to your watery grave!
 * Red Fork: That's it, time to get serious. Charge!
 * Captain Dark Shell: This is a battle you will not win. But that's ok. The only thing better than tearing your apart is demolishing your morale.
 * Jaiden: You're going to be demolished once we're done with you!
 * Cypher-Den: Elemental combo, girls.
 * Rebecca: Ready!
 * Tommy: He has it!
 * Captain Dark Shell: Consider yourselves doomed, worthless beings.
 * Captain Dark Shell: Foolish beings... it would be much easier for you to simply surrender. You'd have much less pain that way. But you know? Causing you all so much pain and suffering is making this all much better.
 * Captain Red Shell: We... won't give up.
 * Ace: You must be stopped.
 * Captain Dark Shell: Heroic comeback? I've seen it before. You're nothing special.
 * Ace: You don't scare me. As powerful as you are, I will not let you do this.
 * Captain Dark Shell: Then you will fall in pieces.
 * Captain Dark Shell: Teleporting behind me? That's the oldest trick in the shadow book. If that's the best you've got, then that's just sad.
 * Captain Dark Shell: Do you think you're special? You're just another shadow ninja. I fought hundreds of them in the past. And I have to say, you're nothing compared to the ones I fought back in the day. You're weak!
 * Captain Dark Shell: You're just a joke.
 * Captain Dark Shell: Do you see this? This is what happens when you mess with Captain Dark Shell! Even your strongest warriors have fallen to my sword. Red Fork, Akasha, Kyoji, and even "Ace", they've all failed to defeat me. What makes the rest of you think things will be any different with you? Does anyone dare try anything else? *points his sword at the remaining members of the gang.*
 * Tommy: *hides behind Lemon Glass* I'm scared.
 * Lemon Glass: Oh no...
 * Red Ruby: You think you scare me? I'll show you! *takes out a dynamite stick, but the fuse cannot be lit due to it being underwater* Yikes.
 * Toby Topaz: Oh no...
 * Amelia Amethyst: We're doomed...
 * Starcade: You're never going to win, just you wait!
 * Captain Dark Shell: I already have, worthless beings. In fact, I could simply kill you all right here, right now. But instead, I'll do something better. I'll seal you all away in the Shadow Dimension.
 * Lemon Glass: What!?
 * Jelo: You can't do that!
 * Captain Dark Shell: Oh, yes I can. I've been imprisoned in that grim and depressive dimension for aeons. It's about time you guys experience for yourselves everything I've suffered.
 * Lemon Glass: No! *trying to swim away from the portal*
 * Blowy: I don't want to go to the Shadow Dimension! *trying to swim away from the portal*
 * Captain Dark Shell: Resistance is futile. No one can escape the dark, hellish portal of the Shadow Dimension.
 * Jelo: Are you sure? We'll see about tha- *gets sucked in* -AAAHHH!
 * Captain Dark Shell: Farewell. Try and enjoy your last moments of life, before the the shady beings of this dimension end your existence. As for me, it's time to continue what I began so long ago.
 * Jelo: What is this place? It looks even gloomier than Galaximus' Lair!
 * Coconut Crab: It's... it's... the Shadow Dimension.
 * Jelo: Well, that explains why it looks so depressing.
 * Akasha: How is this possible? The amulet is supposed to trap him!
 * Coconut Crab: He must have altered the amulet somehow. Whatever he did, this is terrible on so many levels.
 * Akasha: Unless someone else altered the amulet for him.
 * Starcade: Perhaps Discord?
 * Green Shadow: Maybe not.
 * Akasha: But there's no way for him to alter the amulet while in the Shadow Dimension...
 * Coconut Crab: Unless there's some other way out... in that case, we'd have to find it, and fast!
 * Sean Sapphire: What the?
 * Jaiden: Where...are...we?
 * Corolla: Ugh...where am I...
 * Red Ruby: Where's that Captain Dark Shell at?! I'll kill him!
 * Gary Garnet: Don't be ridiculous. There's no way you'll be able to do that.
 * Diana Diamond: Where are we anyway?
 * Akasha: The Shadow Dimension.
 * Captain Red Shell: This is terrible. If we're sealed in the Shadow Dimension... Captain Dark Shell will be able to take over our world, and possibly even other dimensions.
 * Star: That's terrible!
 * Ace: Do not worry, captain. There's a solution to everything, you know.
 * Captain Red Shell: What would that be? There's no way out of this dimension.
 * Ace: There is. The fact that Captain Dark Shell escaped is proof of it.
 * Red Fork: I'm listening.
 * Ace: You see, I'm suspecting that the amulet we saw Captain Dark Shell isn't the real Amulet of the Dark Seas.
 * Blue Ocean: Huh!?
 * Starry: Well, that would explain why the portal sucked us in instead of him.
 * Akasha: A fake? Of course, I should've known!
 * Kyoji: *wakes up* What's happening?
 * Akasha: We're in the Shadow Dimension, Kyoji. We're finding our way out of here now, which I suspect that we can do so by finding the real amulet.
 * Ace: You see, this dimension may look intimidating, but it's very similar to our dimension in several ways. In fact, I think we can find the real Amulet of the Dark Seas right here. If I'm correct, when you removed the Amulet of the Dark Seas the first time, it caused an interruption in the balance of the flow of dark energy between dimensions. That might have weakened the spell used to seal Captain Dark Shell, allowing him to escape. In any case, the amulet he had is most likely only a similar amulet that belongs in this dimension, so the real amulet should be here.
 * Akasha: Wow, that's confusing.
 * Jelo: While I may not have joined on your adventures, I'll try my best to simplify it. What Ace is saying is that this dimension is kinda like our dimension in some ways. He says the real amulet must be here, and Dark Shell is using a replica that belongs to this dimension.
 * Green Shadow: Well, if the amulet is here, we'd better start finding it!
 * Blue Ocean: But where do we search?
 * Ace: That's the problem. I don't know where we're supposed to search.
 * Boom: So, we have to find an amulet that can be anywhere in this huge dimension? Yeah, we're doomed.
 * ???: You're doomed for sure!
 * Electra: Who are you?
 * Red Fork: Hey! You remind me of this old pony scientist I know.
 * ???: What? I'm like no one else! My name is Shadow Spark, and I'm the world's greatest scientist!
 * Red Fork: Gee, you even talk like that guy too...
 * Shadow Spark: I don't know who you guys are, or what you're doing here, but you shouldn't be here. This territory is mine. In fact, you should stay away from all Shadow Creek!
 * Green Shadow: Shadow Creek?
 * Starcade: Shadow Creek, really? Come on, show some creativity!
 * Amelia Amethyst: Excuse me, Shadow Spark, but have you seen an amulet around here?
 * Jelo: We really need it on account of saving the world.
 * Shadow Spark: An amulet? Of course not. What makes you think I'd know about any amulets?
 * Red Fork: Well, you're the brightest, right? Of course you'd know about a simple amulet.
 * Shadow Spark: Fine! I do know! But I can't say anything about it. Now leave my territory!
 * Akasha: Your territory? Not anymore, it ain't!
 * Red Ruby: We're gonna blow you up if you don't give up!
 * Toby Topaz: So, Mr. Shadow Spark, we don't wanna fight you but can you please give us the amulet? It'll make things better for all of us...
 * Shadow Spark: I don't have it! I said I know the amulet, not that I have it. Now get out of Shadow Creek, unless you want trouble!
 * Red Fork: Hey, chill out sparky. If you don't have it, then just tell us where it is.
 * Shadow Spark: I can't! Now scram!
 * Blast: Just like home. Villains never do things the easy way.
 * Red Fork: Well, I guess we're going to have to defeat you, then.
 * Shadow Spark: Defeat me? Ha! No one has done that in years!
 * Shadow Spark: It's time to wreck you guys into pieces!
 * Bonk Choy: It's coming in like a...
 * Green Shadow: Don't bother. We see where it's going.
 * Shadow Spark: Eesh, annoying ice powers. I've dealt with them many times already.
 * Red Fork: Gee, who thought that a more evil version of Bright Spark would stick to such a well-known trick as the wrecking ball?
 * Shadow Spark: Just watch this!
 * Shadow Spark: Such power exceeds even My expectations. Hah! My own genius scares me sometimes.
 * Blue Ocean: That means you've miscalculated, that's a failure in my book.
 * Shadow Spark: To surpass expectations is the ultimate of genius. I wouldn't expect you to understand.
 * Akasha: I understand what it means, it means that you're doomed.
 * Kyoji: We just need the amulet, Shadow Spark. If you won't let us get it, we'll have to do this the hard way.
 * Shadow Spark: Agh! I guess it's time for plan B.
 * Shadow Spark: Dragon-bot, ready for battle!
 * Takeshi: That's a lot of flames! *combines his electric forcefield with Electra's*
 * Sasuke: Eat water, dragon!
 * Rebecca: Hey Sasuke, need some help?
 * Sasuke: Sure, the more water the merrier! *tosses more water bombs into the Dragon-bot's mouth*
 * Rebecca: Okay! Splashdown! *throws water bombs at the Dragon-bot's mouth*
 * Lisa: According to my calculations, we're going to need a few hundred more water bombs.
 * Shadow Spark: Hey, stop that!
 * Sasuke: Looks like it wants more! More water is always welcome!
 * Shadow Spark: Ugh! No way!
 * Akasha: So what were you saying about being the world's greatest scientist?
 * Red Ruby: Now tell us where that blasted amulet is!
 * Shadow Spark: Look, I'd tell you where it is, but last time I saw Captain Dark Shell he threatened to kill me if I ever told anyone what happened to the amulet.
 * Red Ruby: I don't care! Tell us! *takes out a dynamite stick and points it at Shadow Spark*
 * Star: Red, I don't think that's a good idea.
 * Red Ruby: Well, I have to try anyway!
 * Shadow Spark: *rolls his eyes, and presses a button causing an anvil to fall on Red Ruby, knocking him out* Gee, what an annoying being.
 * Blast: Hey, just tell us where the amulet is. We already defeated your big machine.
 * Shadow Spark: But Captain Dark Shell threatened to kill me if I told anyone.
 * Red Fork: Look sparkster, we're going to take care of Captain Dark Shell. Besides, if you tell us, we'll promise to not let him know you told us.
 * Shadow Spark: Fine! But only because you're more trouble than you're worth! Captain Dark Shell shattered the amulet, and then went to spread the pieces all over the dimension.
 * Blast: What!? He shattered the amulet!?
 * Alice: Hm... though I think that if we recollect all the pieces, we might be able to repair the amulet. Kyoji, do you still have the Automated Mix-n-Matcher 4000 Starcade gave you on your birthday?
 * Kyoji: I do. I only use it in emergency situations, but I guess it's about time I brought it out again. *takes out the Automated Mix-n-Matcher 4000 from his pocket*
 * Starcade: Phew, I almost thought you forgot about it.
 * Kyoji: I'll never do that. Anyway, if Shadow Spark is correct, we'll have to travel across the Shadow Dimension and look for the remaining shards of the amulet.
 * Blue Ocean: How do we find them, though?
 * Shadow Spark: That's easy. Captain Dark Shell gave one shard of the amulet to some of the other villains around here. FInding them will be the easy part, but they won't give up the shards so easily, since they're just as terrified of that captain as I am.
 * Red Fork: So we'll have to fight each of them in order to get the shards back?
 * Shadow Spark: Exactly.
 * Blue Ocean: Could you give us a list of the places we should go to find the villains?
 * Shadow Spark: They're each in their own territories. Here's a list of the villains that have any shard with them. SIx villains in total. I don't have any shards with me, however. *gives the gang a list*
 * Lincoln: Thanks.
 * Toby Topaz: Thanks, Mr. Shadow Spark.
 * CypherDen: Okay guys, we got what we need to find the amulet pieces!
 * Amelia Amethyst: What does the list say anyway?
 * Red Fork: Hm... *sees the list* Wow, I guess Shadow Spark won't be the only familiar villain we're going to encounter.
 * Captain Red Shell: Well, there's no time to lose. We must hurry. Every minute we spend here is another minute Captain Dark Shell will use to take over our world.
 * Akasha: No way that's going to happen.
 * Green Shadow: So where are we headed to first?
 * Red Fork: *reads the list* Looks like we'll be heading to Darkburbia first.
 * Green Shadow: Darkburbia? Oh no, I think I have an idea on who we're up against. Let's quickly go there.
 * Ace: Indeed, let's go.
 * Windy Sails: Hey, Iron Heart, come check this out!
 * Iron Heart: What's the matter?
 * Windy Sails: There's a strange dark crab coming to the coast. Do you know who he might be?
 * Iron Heart: He seems pretty similar to Captain Red Shell.
 * Catpain Dark Shell: I'm much more powerful than that useless squire.
 * Captain Dark Shell: Take over the city!
 * Iron Heart: We won't have any of it.
 * Captain Dark Shell: Soldiers, take care of those two worthless ponies.
 * Captain Dark Shell: No one will stand in my way.
 * Captain Dark Shell: Time to go into town. Army, follow me!
 * Sakura: What is going on? And why are there crabs attacking our city?
 * Hissy: I can ask the same question.
 * Nutty: Me too.
 * Mimic: Me too.
 * Chimp: What do we do?
 * Leech: *flies over* I'll tell you what we'll do. We fight for the forest of Echo Creek!
 * Nutty: Hey, it's Sally!
 * Mimic: Hey, it's Sally!
 * Hissy: What brings you here?
 * Leech: The Bat Kingdom is in danger. I promised the Bat King to help you guys defend the forests of Echo Creek. And the city too.
 * Chimp: How do we do that without Queen Emma around?
 * Leech: We have to try!
 * Hissy: She's right. When there's a will, there's a way.
 * Nutty: Now let's fight for the forest!
 * Sakura: Hmm...what a strange bunch of animals. And they talk? It doesn't matter, I must focus on the task at hand.
 * Captain Dark Shell: You decide to fight? Unwise decision.
 * Sakura: I've nearly destroyed the whole of Icicle Isle by myself! Do you think I can't fight?
 * Nutty: No!
 * Mimic: No!
 * Nutty: Stop copying me! We need another tactic and fast!
 * Leech: Hmm, I got one. Just watch!
 * Hissy: I've never seen Leech turn one of her victims into a vampire, but I'm curious to see if it is real.
 * Nutty: I don't know, it's probably just a gothic myth.
 * Captain Dark Shell: None of you stands a chance.
 * Nutty: We need more allies!
 * Mimic: We need more allies!
 * Leech: Understood. I'll go get some more.
 * Captain Dark Shell: Tearing you apart will be sheer delight.
 * Green Shadow: Hmm...where is he?
 * Bonk Choy: Wait, who are we looking for again?
 * Red Fork: According to the list, Dark Re-Peat Boss should be somewhere around here. He's got the first shard of the amulet.
 * Bonk Choy: Dark Re-Peat Boss?
 * Re-Peat Moss: Well, that sounds worse than TRICKY.
 * Jelo: It sure does, considering the dimension we're in.
 * Bonk Choy: Let's go find him and beat him up!
 * Red Ruby: Yeah!
 * Amelia Amethyst: Where is he anyway?
 * Red Fork: He's supposed to have a base around here. Let's check around, shall we?
 * Green Shadow: A base...of course! Re-Peat Boss always has one lying around.
 * Starcade: Well, let's go find it then!
 * Star: Are we there yet?
 * Lisa: Negative.
 * Jelo: We have to keep looking if we want to get out of this place.
 * Green Shadow: True.
 * Bonk Choy: Hey, doesn't this place look very similar to our home?
 * Green Shadow: Yes, it does. So far, Darkburbia has been pretty much very similar to Suburbia in many ways. Perhaps I might be able to locate the base. It should be around here somewhere.
 * Lincoln: Why not use a GPS?
 * Jelo: No internet connection.
 * Blue Ocean: No internet? No internet!? What kind of place is this!?
 * Green Shadow: The Shadow Dimension? But there's no time to complain about the lack of internet right now.
 * Blue Ocean: Ok...
 * Red Fork: Green Shadow, lead the way.
 * Green Shadow: Alright. If I recall correctly, Dark Re-Peat Boss' base should be nearby.
 * Red Fork: Well, here it is.
 * Boom: This is going to be easy. Let's break in and take the shard!
 * Alice: Calm down there for a second.
 * Boom: Why? He stands no chance against us!
 * Alice: I know, but we should still be careful. This moss might be tougher than Re-Peat Boss.
 * Electra: Meh, how much trouble can he be? Even Shadow Spark went down fairly easy.
 * Red Fork: Well, let's go inside the base.
 * Bonk Choy: Should be no trouble at all. How bad can it be?
 * Toby Topaz: Uh, really bad?
 * Star: Hey Dark Re-Peat Boss! Where are you?
 * ??? #1: Destroy them.
 * ??? #2: Immediately!
 * ??? #2: Take that, weakling!
 * Star: Ow! "*pulls out her wand and shoots a rainbow blast at ??? #1*
 * Dark Re-Peat Boss: What's this I'm seeing? A group of lowly trespassers in my lair?
 * Boom: We know you have one of the shards of the Amulet of Dark Seas. Give it, or else!
 * Dark Re-Peat Boss: The Amulet of the Dark Seas?
 * Dark Boss Choy: Shards?
 * Dark Re-Peat Boss: We know nothing about them, nor do we have whatever shard you're blabbering about. Now leave or my Moss-Bot will be the last thing you'll ever see.
 * CypherDen: Bring it on!
 * Boom: We're not afraid!
 * Richard: We need those shards!
 * Red Fork: If you're not going to give it to us, we'll have to fight you.
 * Green Shadow: We'll take that shard like it or not.
 * Dark Re-Peat Boss: So be it. Dark Boss Choy?
 * Dark Boss Choy: Yes?
 * Dark Re-Peat Boss: Stop those trespassers!
 * Dark Boss Choy: Okay! Coming right up!
 * Bonk Choy: *gets knocked back* Ouch...
 * Re-Peat Moss: *gets knocked back* Owie...
 * Red Ruby: *gets knocked back* That felt nothing, is that all you got?
 * Toby Topaz: *gets knocked back* On the other hand, that felt painful...*faints*
 * Marco: Guys! Are you okay?
 * Red Fork: Two can play that game! Charge!
 * Dark Boss Choy: Eat weed, you fat horse!
 * Green Shadow: *fires peas at Dark Boss Choy* He's not a fat horse, he's a pony. Show him some respect!
 * Dark Boss Choy: *rolls his eyes* Respect? That's boring.
 * Red Fork: Too slow?
 * Boom: Team, now!
 * Electra: Got it!
 * Socrch: Fire!
 * Blade: Ready!
 * Dark Re-Peat Boss: Foolish humans.
 * Blue Ocean: Look out! *creates a forcefield around the gang*
 * Red Fork: *jumps only to land on Dark Boss Choy again* Are you ready to give up yet, Dark Boss Choy?
 * Dark Boss Choy: *injured and exhausted* No!
 * Red Fork: Two can play that game!
 * Red Fork: Oops...
 * Alice: Watch out!
 * Lisa: Falling object coming in 5 minutes from now!
 * Dark Boss Choy: Five minutes? That's more than enough time for me to take you all down!
 * Amelia Amethyst: Close one.
 * Dark Boss Choy: Come out of that forcefield and face me like a true fighter! *continues to throw objects at the forcefield*
 * Jelo: Gang, I got an idea. It might sound stupid, but it's worth a shot.
 * Green Shadow: What idea do you have in mind?
 * Jelo: *whispering to Green Shadow* I'm going out of the forcefield.
 * Green Shadow: *whispering back* What? Why? Dark Boss Choy will knock you out within seconds!
 * Jelo: *whispering back* I'm going to dodge all the flying objects Dark Boss Choy will throw at me. Then, I'm going to jump on one of them and slash Dark Boss Choy with my sword.
 * Red Fork: Or, we could do this.
 * Jelo: That could work too.
 * Red Fork: Give up!
 * Dark Boss Choy: No!
 * Richard: And while you're at it, cool down! *lobs frozen watermelons at the Moss-bot*
 * Alice: And take a plasma blast! *shoots plasma blasts at Dark Boss Choy with her plasma cannon*
 * Starcade: Just give us the shard already, you know you can't beat all of us.
 * Dark Re-Peat Boss: For the last time, we don't have it! So scram!
 * Dark Boss Choy: And while you're at it, here's some souvenirs for you!
 * Starcade: Give up the shard.
 * Dark Boss Choy: I don't have it!
 * Starcade: Sure...
 * Dark Boss Choy: I'm serious! Dark Re-Peat Boss never entrusts me to keep anything safe!
 * Starcade: And that's why you don't have a shard of the Amulet of the Dark Seas with you?
 * Dark Boss Choy: Nah, I swear! Let me go and I'll promise to empty my pockets!
 * Starcade: Hmm...nope. I think I can do that myself.
 * Dark Boss Choy: But...
 * Starcade: Sorry, Dark Boss Choy, but we really need that shard. You understand.
 * Starcade: He was right. He doesn't have the shard. But that means it's Dark Re-Peat Boss who has the shard.
 * Green Shadow: Starcade? How are things going back there?
 * Starcade: I took care of Dark Boss Choy. He doesn't have the shard, however. Which only means that the moss is the one who has the shard.
 * Red Fork: Well, this ought to be fun. *looking at Dark Re-Peat Boss, ready for more action*
 * Boom: Everyone get him!
 * Green Shadow: Our attacks aren't strong enough against that forcefield!
 * Akasha: Or we can use an elemental combo to destroy it. Simple.
 * Red Fork: Seems reasonable.
 * Blast: Scorch, Electra, Rebecca, Jason, let's do this.
 * Boom: Ok, now we can destroy him.
 * Dark Re-Peat Boss: No! My greatest creation, it's ruined!
 * Starcade: So how about that shard? Are you going to give it up? *points one of her laser pistols at Dark Re-Peat Boss*
 * Dark Re-Peat Boss: Argh, please! Don't hurt me!
 * Starcade: So are you handing over that shard or not?
 * Dark Re-Peat Boss: Ah! Alright, you win! Here you go! *gives a shard of the Amulet of the Dark Seas* Just please...don't hurt me or my leafy accomplice...
 * Boom: Well, now that you mention it, that might be fun to do...
 * Red Fork: *levitates Boom away from Dark Re-Peat Boss & Dark Boss Choy* Ok, calm down there, Boom. I think they've had enough.
 * Red Ruby: Geez, what a way to stop people, Red Fork.
 * Dark Re-Peat Boss: Great, now we'll all be dead. Captain Dark Shell will kill us both once he finds out that you took the shard we're supposed to protect from the likes of you!
 * Dark Boss Choy: Game over, man! Game over!
 * Red Ruby: For the record, I don't care. You deserve it.
 * Red Fork: Don't freak out. I'm sure that dark crustacean is going to be angrier with us than you.
 * Lincoln: Yeah.
 * Blue Ocean: Well, one shard, five more to go!
 * Blue Ocean: We've got Dark Re-Peat Boss's shard!
 * Jelo: Okay gang, we need to prepare for what happens next.
 * Dark Re-Peat Boss: Whatever. If you're going to stop Captain Dark Shell, I wish you good luck. His presence has been tormenting us and the other dwellers of the Shadow Dimension. So please, go and get the other shards, and use then to get rid of that dark crustacean for good! He's a tough adversary, but from how quickly you took us down, I'm sure you can slay that beast.
 * Green Shadow: We can't guarantee that we'll kill him, but we'll stop him.
 * Dark Re-Peat Boss: Thank you. Now if you'll excuse me, Dark Boss Choy and I would like to repair our base. Good luck again in stopping Captain Dark Shell.
 * Blade: Thanks. Uh... have a nice day.
 * Blue Ocean: Where to next, Red Fork?
 * Red Fork: According to this list, our next destination will be... Dark Baker Alley?
 * CypherDen: Let me guess, there's a Dark Doughleficent?
 * Gary Garnet: Most likely.
 * Amelia Amethyst: Cookies?
 * Toby Topaz: Cakes?
 * Red Ruby: Thinking of food isn't going to get us anywhere! Let's go right now and get that shard!
 * Boom: Who is Doughleficent?
 * Blast: Oh yeah, you haven't met her yet.
 * Alice: Well, there's going to be a dark version of her, so I guess that's close enough?
 * Red Fork: Let's go gang!
 * Green Shadow: So we're headed for Dark Baker Alley then. Let's go!
 * Jelo: Let's g- oh, never mind, you guys already said it. Carry on.
 * Captain Dark Shell: Go on, army of mine. Show these inferior beings the true meaning of fear.
 * ???: Uh....stop right there!
 * Captain Dark Shell: Huh? Who dares to challenge the legendary warrior of centuries, the destroyer of worlds, the conqueror of kingdoms, the killer of ninjas, Captain Dark Shell?
 * Leni: Okay, so let me introduce myself. I'm Leni! A bunch of animals told me what you're doing is NoT good.
 * Captain Dark Shell: What do you plan to do? You're just an insignificant human. Do you think you can do anything to stop me? Come on, show me what you've got, foolish weakling.
 * Assorted Cookie: I'm here too. I have come to stop you upon the tip I received from a vampire bat. You won't take over Baker Street!
 * Luna: I'm here too. What you're doing is not cool at all.
 * Janna: Agreed.

Suddenly, Leni, Luna, Janna and Assorted Cookie see dozens of shadow crab soldiers running towards them, ready to attack, while Captain Dark Shell does a sinister laugh. ''Assorted Cookie hits the ground with his candy cane, giving out a signal. A few cookies emerge from their hiding spots, before charging towards the shadow crab soldiers.'' ''Several shadow crab soldiers are knocked back by the sound wave, and others engage combat with the cookies. However, dozens are still charging towards the allies. Suddenly, one of them is hit by a tennis ball, another is hit by a cup of coffee, and another is hit by a book. The allies see as Orange Cookie, Coffee Cookie and Blackberry Cookie have arrived.'' Captain Dark Shell creates a powerful shadow wave with his sword, knocking the allies into a wall. ''Captain Dark Shell continues to send more shadow waves towards the allies, leaving them very weak. The last one hits Coffee Cookie.'' As Captain Dark Shell comes closer, he suddenly hears something. A cookie-shaped being in black armor charges towards Captain Dark Shell, hitting him with a mace. Captain Dark Shell uses a shadow art to levitate The Dark Knight in his armor, and smash him into a wal, before using a shadow wave to knock off all of his armor, revealing him to be Green Tea Cookie. ''Captain Dark Shell spins Green Tea Cookie around, before tossing him away. Green Tea Cookie lands two blocks away. Everyone else watches in horror as Green Tea Cookie is left unconscious.'' ''Assorted Cookie takes out several bottles of icing, before firing projectiles of icing at Captain Dark Shell and the shadow crab warriors. Captain Dark Shell deflects the projectiles with his sword.'' Captain Dark Shell creates yet another shadow wave, which knocks out Assorted Cookie. ''With one powerful shadow wave from his sword, Captain Dark Shell knocks out the remaining allies. Leech sees this from behind the bushes, before flying away from Baker Street to get more allies. Meanwhile, in the Shadow Dimension, it's already sunset, and the gang is reaching Dark Cookie Alley.'' ''Red Ruby throws a dynamite stick towards Dark Cookie Alley, creating a loud and huge explosion. Suddenly, the gang sees as Dark Doughleficent comes towards them.'' A huge wave of gingerbread zombies is approaching! ''The gang searches around Dark Cookie Alley for any sweet ingredients they can use against the gingerbread zombies.  The gang loads icing into Gary Garnet's futuristic cannon, which fires bags of icing at the mob of gingerbread zombies, neutralizing several gingerbread zombies as the icing hits them.'' The elemental combo defeats Dark Doughleficent, causing her to drop the shard she had. Blue Ocean writes a check next to "Dark Doughleficent on the list". ''As the gang goes off to find the next shard, Captain Dark Shell continues to take more and more territories for himself.  Half of the army of shadow crab soldiers gets ready to go with Captain Dark Shell to another dimension. Red Spoons sees this from a distance.'' ''As the shadow crab soldiers enter the portal, Red Spoon finds the way to sneak into the portal as well. He sees the army has entered in the Food Dimension.'' ''Red Spoon hides in a bush. As he sees one of the shadow crab soldiers pass, he knocks out the crab with one hit on the head with his frying pan. He then pulls the crab into the bush. Red Spoon takes the crab's shell, sword and shield, and then goes towards the government center.'' Red Spoon arrives at the government center, and sees that there's already shadow crab soldiers trying to break into the Food Pyramid. ''Red Spoon uses his magic to teleport into the Food Pyramid. The food delegates are inside, terrified of the army that's heading towards them.'' However, when Pierre Le Pain sees "the crab soldier" come towards him, he instantly gets scared and hides behind Florette. ''Red Spoon leads the food delegates out of the Food Pyramid, and towards the portal to Earth. However, as they escape, they watch in horror how the shadow crab soldiers are destroying their entire dimension. Buildings on fire, foods running in panic, and entire villages left in ruins.'' ''Red Spoon and the food delegates escape through the portal to Earth, leaving the Food Dimension burning behind them. Meanwhile, the gang arrives at the coast, ready to confront Captain Dark Blowhole.'' Meanwhile, Captain Dark Blowhole is yelling commands at his army. Captain Dark Blowhole and his army of dark electric dolphins swim closer to the coasts, while aiming their blowholes at the gang. ''Captain Dark Blowhole and his army fire jets of electric water from their blowholes at the gang, while swimming closer to the coasts at the same time. Blue Ocean creates a forcefield around the gang, protecting them.'' Red Ruby throws several dynamite sticks at Captain Dark Blowhole, who fires electric water jets to douse them before they can explode. ''The electric dolphins draw their swords, before charging towards the gang. Amelia Amethyst quickly raises a forcefield to protect the gang from the swords.'' ''Scorch starts shooting fire blasts recklessly at the electric dolphins. Blade tosses cutting blades at them as well. While they manage to take out a few electric dolphins, the rapid sword attacks dealt by the electric dolphins quickly destroy Amelia Amethyst's forcefield, leaving the gang exposed.'' ''The electric dolphins charge towards the gang again.  While Captain Dark Blowhole's army continues hacking their swords away at the forcefield, Captain Dark Blowhole himself begins attacking the gang members who stepped out of the forcefield by slashing at them with his sword. Captain Red Shell fights back with his own sword, engaging in a one-on-one duel with Captain Dark Blowhole. Meanwhile, Boom begins to fly around the electric dolphins, giving them powerful punches.'' ''The electric dolphins fire jets of electric water simultaneously at Boom, while Sean Sapphire takes down several electric dolphins with his sword skills. Meanwhile, Captain Dark Blowhole continues his duel against Captain Red Shell.'' ''The gang continues fighting the electric dolphins, until they eventually defeat all of them, leaving Captain Dark Blowhole himself to be left. However, at the same time, the fight has left the gang exhausted. Meanwhile, Captain Dark Blowhole continues fighting Captain Red Shell.'' Captain Red Shell concentrates all his energy on his Sword of Crabbagnon, and the sword shoots a powerful light wave that weakens Captain Dark Blowhole on contact. Captain Dark Blowhole fires a jet of electric water at Captain Red Shell, weakening him as well. ''Captain Dark Blowhole continues firing more jets of electric water at Captain Red Shell. However, Captain Red Shell dodges the jets of electric water, and continues shooting more light waves.'' Captain Dark Blowhole deflects most of the light waves with his sword, but gets knocked out by the last one and faints. Red Ruby throws a dynamite stick at Captain Dark Blowhole, dropping his shard and sending him flying high in the air and back into the ocean. However, the gang sees that it's getting darker. ''The gang starts searching for shelter. They soon find a cavern not too far away from Shadow Creek.'' The gang enters the cavern. ''The gang explores the cavern to look for food. As they go further into the cavern, it gets even darker, to the point where the gang can't see anything.'' Red Fork uses his horn to generate light. ''The gang continues to make their way through the cavern trying to find food. However, while they explore, they see a large silhouette approaching them, with the shape of a large four-legged animal. They then hear a loud roar.'' ''The animal comes closer. It's a bear!'' Red Ruby is about to throw the dynamite stick at the bear, but Emma Emerald quickly tosses it out of his hands with a vine. The bear roars at them again, and begins to run towards them. Emma Emerald approaches the bear and creates a root wall to block its path, before attempting to communicate with the bear. ''Blade tosses a cutting blade at a tree, cutting off some of its branches. Red Fork then uses his magic to levitate the branches into the cavern.'' Red Ruby throws a dynamite stick at the wood, setting it on fire to create a campfire. Red Fork then grabs a stick from the remaining wood, and uses it to cook the fish. Meanwhile, in The Forest of Confusia, Team Hybrids is resting in their base, when all of a sudden, they see Paula Python enter the base quickly, looking pretty scared. ''Paula Python leads Team Hybrids to the army of shadow crabs. There, they don't only see an army of powerful shadow crab warriors destroying the forest, but they also see a larger shadow crab, floating in the air as he watches the mayhem the army is causing in the forest.'' The shadow crab that was floating turns around, looking at Team Hybrids. ''Dyna-Matic flies into the air, before firing explosives directly at Captain Dark Shell. Captain Dark Shell shoots shadow blasts at the explosives, causing them to blow up before they get close enough to Captain Dark Shell.'' ''Ink Splash covers the ground in her blue ink, and then begins to shoot magic blasts at Captain Dark Shell. Captain Dark Shell creates a shadow forcefield to protect himself from the magic blasts, and then shoots several shadow blasts at Ink Splash. Ink Splash turns into her inkling form, and swims around in the ink to dodge the shadow blasts. Meanwhile, Captain Dark Shell concentrates his power, and showers Team Hybrids with shadow blasts. Magi-Knight creates a magic forcefield to protect himself and Team Hybrids from the shadow blasts. Octo-Phantom swims around the ink as well before sneaking her way towards Captain Dark Shell and unleashing haunted attacks on him. The attacks hit Captain Dark Shell's forcefield, which is able to stand the damage.'' ''Whacker Weed runs out of the forcefield, dodging the shadow blasts and firing ice blasts at Captain Dark Shell. The shadow forcefield is getting weaker, but still manages to sustain the damage.'' ''Captain Dark Shell lifts his sword up into the air, and suddenly, the sky turns dark, as if it were suddenly nighttime. Ink Splash comes back to her pony form, and shoots more magic blasts at Captain Dark Shell. This fails to destroy the shadow forcefield.'' ''Captain Dark Shell concentrates his power, and shoots a shadow beam at Ink Splash, which she counters with a magic beam. Both powerful beings continue to struggle to overpower the other's beam. However, after struggling for a few seconds, Captain Dark Shell manages to overpower Ink Splash's beam. The shadow beam hits her, dealing massive damage on Ink Splash. Ink Splash falls to the ground, looking weak.'' ''Paula grabs Captain Dark Shell with her tails, and begins to squeeze him like a prey. However, Captain Dark Shell breaks free with a powerful explosion of dark energy, injuring Paula Python in the process. Ink Splash stands up again, looking furious, and grows to giant size.'' ''Ink Splash attempts to smash Captain Dark Shell with her hooves. Captain Dark Shell uses a shadow art to fly around, dodging Ink Splash's hooves. He then uses another shadow art to levitate Ink Splash, and toss her at the rest of her team. Being in her giant size, Ink Splash falls on the rest of her team, smashing them all. Ink Splash returns back to her normal size, only to find that she and all her allies are very injured.'' ''Captain Dark Shell waves his sword up in the air. Team Hybrids suddenly finds themselves surrounded by hundreds of shadow crab warriors.'' The army of shadow crab warriors pounces onto them, attacking them with their spears and swords, as Captain Dark Shell watches with an evil smile. Ink Splash desperately tries to stand up and fight, but she's already been weakened and injured too much by Captain Dark Shell's attacks. Magi-Knight stands up once more and fights a few crab soldiers, but is quickly taken down before he can even cast a spell. Captain Dark Shell shoots a final shadow blast at Team Hybrids, making them black out.
 * Captain Dark Shell: So three weak humans and a fancy cookie are who comes to challenge me? How pathetic. I heard this dimension was full of powerful heroes. This is just shameful. Shadow crabs, seize them!
 * Luna: Get ready to rock! *plays a sonic boom at the shadow crab soldiers*
 * Assorted Cookie: Go, my friends! Show them what you're made of!
 * Captain Dark Shell: Worthless inferior beings...
 * Assorted Cookie: You're here. But you shouldn't be, this area is too dangerous!
 * Coffee Cookie: We know. But we have to help defend our home.
 * Blackberry Cookie: In times of need, all of us must remain together to prevail.
 * Orange Cookie: We won't let that meanie beat you guys up.
 * Captain Dark Shell: So, more cookies decide to join the party? Very well, that means more victims for my army to destroy.
 * Assorted Cookie: *fighting several shadow crab soldiers at once* Why do you intend to take over our home? There's nothing we have to offer!
 * Captain Dark Shell: But there is. Your territory is an important strategic point on this map. Besides, just imagine the looks on the faces of your friends when they've seen your small town turned into ruins!
 * Coffee Cookie: Ouch!
 * ???: Charge!
 * Captain Dark Shell: Who are you? Show yourself!
 * ???: I'm the Dark Knight! You will not hurt Sarah on my guard!
 * Coffee Cookie: Green Tea Cookie?
 * Captain Dark Shell: Miserable cookie.
 * Green Tea Cookie: *looking scared* I... ah...
 * Captain Dark Shell: What's the matter? Scared, cowardly cookie?
 * Green Tea Cookie: Let me go! Don't hurt me! *trying to free himself from Captain Dark Shell's shadow art*
 * Captain Dark Shell: Resistance is futile!
 * Coffee Cookie: Green Tea Cookie!
 * Orange Cookie: I can't believe I've saying this, but I feel bad for him.
 * Captain Dark Shell: That's what happens to anyone who dares to challenge me? Who is next?
 * Assorted Cookie: That will never stop us from stopping you. Here, have some icing!
 * Captain Dark Shell: Well, isn't that sweet?
 * Orange Cookie: Assorted Cookie!
 * Blackberry Cookie: This isn't good.
 * Captain Dark Shell: Sleep tight.
 * Lincoln: While this place looks really dark and depressing, at least the sunsets look nice.
 * Alice: Well, at least that's something good about this place.
 * Red Fork: Well, now we have to find Dark Doughleficent. But where is she?
 * Blue Ocean: I'd use my magic radar to find her, but there's no internet in this place!
 * Green Shadow: We established that already.
 * Lisa: We don't need internet.
 * Blue Ocean: My magic radar does require it.
 * Red Fork: I'm sure there must be a way to find her.
 * Starcade: If only Assorted Cookie was here, he could've helped us look for her.
 * Alice: Yeah... but there has to be another way to find her.
 * Red Fork: Well... Shadow Spark did say that the villains each owned their own territories. Maybe Dark Doughleficent will come out if she thinks we're a threat to her territory.
 * Red Ruby: So let's threaten her then! *takes out a dynamite stick*
 * Sean Sapphire: What exactly is your plan here?
 * Red Ruby: I'm gonna lure her out of that territory with an explosion!
 * Jelo: Sounds risky, but it's a good plan. Ruby, go!
 * Blast: Ok, go ahead.
 * Boom: Gee, turns out he does have a brain after all.
 * Red Ruby: Finally, you do realize it.
 * Red Fork: *punches Boom* Stop it.
 * Red Ruby: Alley oop!
 * Dark Doughleficent: Hey! Get out of my town, now!
 * Red Ruby: No, you get out! *takes out more dynamite sticks and throws them at Dark Doughleficent*
 * Dark Doughleficent: Alright, that's enough! Gingerbread zombies, get them!
 * CypherDen: Gingerbread zombies!
 * Blast: This isn't good!
 * Toby Topaz: Yeah...
 * Amelia Amethyst: Cookies...
 * Diana Diamond: *slaps Amelia Amethyst* Come on, snap out of it!
 * Sean Sapphire: Does anyone have icing, sweets or something? We can surely use them against the zombies.
 * Blue Ocean: *shurgs*
 * Blast: If I had known we'd have to face gingerbread zombies, I would've brought icing.
 * Green Shadow: Looks like this fight is going to be a doozy. We'll have to search through Dark Cookie Alley for the sweetest ingredients we can use against the gingerbread zombies.
 * Ace: Let's hurry, then.
 * Red Ruby: I got some candies!
 * Gary Garnet: Me too.
 * Sean Sapphire: And I got the icing! *shows up with a giant bucket of icing and puts it down, exhausted after carrying it*
 * Gary Garnet: If you ask me, we should get to work and put this huge amount of icing to good use. *points to the gingerbread zombies quickly approaching them*
 * Gary Guppy: Yeah!
 * Blast: Time to take care of some gingerbread zombies now!
 * Gary Garnet: Load them in here! *takes out the same futuristic cannon he had from The Crystals of the Seven Colors*
 * Sean Sapphire: How did you get that cannon?
 * Gary Garnet: Don't question my intelligence! I used this futuristic cannon once to fire bags of icing against Doughleficent and her forces, back when Storm Cloud hypnotized her to take the orange crystal. It's time I brought it out again.
 * Blast: Well, that's convenient.
 * Bonk Choy: Almost sounds like a plot dev...*Green Shadow covers his mouth*
 * Green Shadow: Look, we have no time. We have to use everything we have against the gingerbread zombies, like, now!
 * Red Fork: Ready? Fire!
 * Dark Doughleficent: *facepalms* Not this again.
 * Red Ruby: You should know by now that you have no chance against us, you stupid cookie.
 * Dark Doughleficent: Why you...
 * Blast: Let's end this with an elemental combo!
 * Kyoji: Ace, Akasha, Takeshi, Sasuke, if you four are ready...*charges up an ice blast*
 * Akasha: If you say so. *charges up a fire blast*
 * Takeshi: Let's do this! *charges up an electric blast*
 * Sasuke: They know waterver's coming for them. *charges up a water blast*
 * Ace: *charges up a shadow blast*
 * Lincoln: This is going to be intense.
 * Dark Doughleficent: Uh oh...
 * Green Shadow: The shard!
 * Bonk Choy: *grabs the shard* I got it!
 * Red Ruby: *to Dark Doughleficent* Playtime's over, you dumb cookie. Where are the other shards?
 * Dark Doughleficent: What makes you think Captain Dark Shell told me who he gave the other shards too?
 * Red Fork: Red Ruby, please stop and think. We already know where the other shards are. The other villains in this dimension have them.
 * Red Ruby: Well, they can always tell us more than that, right?
 * Dark Doughleficent: Well, you sure blew it now. Just wait until Captain Dark Shell finds out about this. He'll kill us all!
 * Red Ruby: *rolls his eyes* Whatever.
 * Bonk Choy: I guess you can say that this is one "sweet" victory, huh?
 * Sean Sapphire: So what should we do with this cookie?
 * Amelia Amethyst: Uh, eat her?
 * Red Ruby: Blow her up?
 * Diana Diamond: None of the above. I say we just move on.
 * Sean Sapphire: *to Dark Doughleficent* Don't worry, miss, we'll help you get rid of that evil crustacean. After we find all the other shards, of course.
 * Dark Doughleficent: Yeah, right... You're tough, no doubt about it, but I doubt it'll be enough to stop that cruel warrior.
 * Red Fork: We'll see about that. Alright gang, that's another shard we've got!
 * Blue Ocean: We've got Dark Doughleficent's shard!
 * Bonk Choy: Neat!
 * Green Shadow: Who's next?
 * Red Fork: The next shard is kept by... Captain Dark Blowhole?
 * Jelo: We're gonna need a boat for this.
 * Amelia Amethyst: Yup.
 * Sean Sapphire: What are we waiting for, let's find one near the coastal areas!
 * Blue Ocean: Let's go!
 * Shadow Crab Soldier #1: Captain, most territories on this planet have been taken. What do we do now?
 * Captain Dark Shell: We're going to take over other dimensions, of course. Split the army in two groups. One will stay here, while the other comes with me to take over other dimensions.
 * Shadow Crab Soldier #1: Aye aye, captain!
 * Captain Dark Shell: Which dimension shall we take over first? *opens a portal* Well, I don't think the order matters. Let's go, my loyal army. *enters the portal, followed by his army*
 * Red Spoon: This is terrible. Where is the gang when you need them? Well, I have to do whatever I can to stop this. I might not be able to defeat Captain Dark Shell, but I'll do anything in my power to stop him from hurting my friends.
 * Red Spoon: Uh oh...
 * Captain Dark Shell: Spread over the place. Find the government center and destroy it. Also take as many prisioners as you can. And destroy anyone who tries to stop our quest.
 * The Shadow Crab Army: Aye aye, captain!
 * Red Spoon: The government center? Oh no, Florette! And the other food delegates... I must stop these shadow crabs from killing them. Hm...
 * Red Spoon: Good. This disguise should keep me safe for a while. I've got to hurry.
 * Red Spoon: Yikes!
 * General Beet: That's it! We have to declare war!
 * Carrot: No general, no! They're too powerful. THere has to be another solution.
 * Bean 47: *sees Red Spoon teleport into the Food Pyramid* Aah! One of them got into the pyramid!
 * Florette: What do we do?
 * Pierre Le Pain: Do not wory madam, I shall protect you.
 * Florette: So much for protection... *rolls her eyes*
 * Red Spoon: Hey, it's ok. It's me, Red Spoon. *takes off the shell to show he's Red Spoon, and winks*
 * Florette: Red Spoon, it's you! You have no idea how happy I am to see you!
 * Red Spoon: Me too. Look, there's no way we'll defeat this army. We have to flee, now!
 * General Beet: Flee from war? Never!
 * Carrot: General, it's our only option.
 * Florette: Red Spoon and Carrot are right, we have to get out of here.
 * Red Spoon: Follow me!
 * Florette: What will happen to the Food Dimension?
 * Red Spoon: The gang will come back. Soon. For now, the best we can do is try and avoid those crabs.
 * Florette: Our homes... *tears appear in her eyes*
 * Red Spoon: It's going to be ok, Florette. Trust me, the gang is going to solve this mess. *hugs her*
 * Florette: *blushes* Thanks Red Spoon. Let's escape.
 * Star: I'm worried. What if Captain Dark Shell already took over the Earth? He could do something very terrible!
 * Lisa: It seems very likely, considering how long we've been here.
 * Marco: How long?
 * Lisa: 2-3 hours.
 * Gary Garnet: Do you really think it'll take that short of a time for a crab to take over an entire planet?
 * Lincoln: He was powerful.
 * Jelo: Well, that doesn't mean we can't stop him. We're the Locked Room Gang! Once we get those shards, we'll be able to go back to our dimension and stop that crab!
 * Green Shadow: Hopefully.
 * Kyoji: Let's go to the coast then.
 * Sean Sapphire: Hmm...Captain Blowhole usually strikes near the docks in the coastal areas. Perhaps he's somewhere there?
 * Lisa: Sounds likely.
 * Captain Red Shell: In fact, I see him approaching the coast as we speak. *points to the coast, as they see Captain Dark Blowhole approach the coast*
 * Toby Topaz: Yikes! He looks more terrifying than Captain Blowhole! *goes to hide behind a building*
 * Sean Sapphire: We don't use fear as a setback, we use fear as a weapon! *draws his sword* Get ready, everyone, for another electric dolphin saga!
 * Captain Dark Blowhole: Get ready, my troops! We're clear to launch a full-out offensive! Stay on target, aim...
 * Captain Dark Blowhole: Fire!
 * Boom: Hey! We know you've got a shard of the Amulet of the Dark Seas!
 * Captain Dark Blowhole: Indeed I do. But you'll never get it from me.
 * Electra: Hand it over, and we won't hurt any of you.
 * Captain Dark Blowhole: Hurt us? Seriously? We're both electric, you fool!
 * Green Shadow: Not all of us.
 * Sasuke: I can wash you away if you don't hand it over!
 * Captain Dark Blowhole: What? The other villains and I have already taken over Shadow Creek and put their heroes out of commission. What makes you think you can do any better to get the shard from me?
 * Red Fork: Because we always win. Just ask Shadow Spark, Dark Re-Peat Boss, Dark Boss Choy or Dark Doughleficent.
 * Ace: Simply put, we're not going down as easy as the heroes that live in this dimension.
 * Captain Dark Blowhole: Hmph! You've just listed the weaker villains among our alliance of villains. Of course you could've easily defeated them.
 * Sean Sapphire: But you're next. What makes you think you're better than them?
 * Captain Dark Blowhole: Wherever we swim, fear will spread. The heroes of this dimension were left intimidated once our fins touched the shores. You should've seen their faces back then, but too bad they're gone now.
 * Red Ruby: Oh yeah? You don't intimidate me! We'll get your stupid shard!
 * Captain Dark Blowhole: *draws and points his sword at the gang* And why exactly do you seek my shard?
 * Red Fork: That's easy. Captain Dark Shell escaped to our dimension. We need the amulet to go defeat him.
 * Captain Dark Blowhole: Captain Dark Shell? Oh no, you don't want to mess with that crab. He has killed off villains who opposed him, like those plant villains created by Dark Re-Peat Boss. I can't give up the shard, else I'll end up like his victims!
 * Green Shadow: So that explains why I don't see another dark version of Black Planter or any other plant villain back in Dark Re-Peat Boss's base.
 * Blast: Now that you mention it, that does make sense.
 * Captain Dark Blowhole: I'm sorry, but I have no choice. The fate of my life depends on this shard!
 * Red Fork: Hey, calm down pal. If you give us that shard, we'll take care of Captain Dark Shell for you.
 * Captain Dark Blowhole: No! My life depends on it! And that of my dark electric dolphin army too!
 * Red Ruby: Screw that. Just hand it over.
 * Captain Dark Blowhole: What? No way!
 * Red Ruby: Hand the shard over...NOW!!!
 * Captain Dark Blowhole: I don't want to do this, but you leave me no choice. If you're not going to get out of Shadow Creek, I'll just have to leave the job of taking you down to my army. Dark electric dolphins, attack!
 * Amelia Amethyst: Yikes, I forgot how fighting the electric dolphins felt like...
 * Scorch: Fry them!
 * Amelia Amethyst: Oh no.
 * Sean Sapphire: They sure are tougher than Captain Blowhole's regular army.
 * Captain Dark Blowhole: Don't stop now, destroy them all like all the other heroes in Shadow Creek!
 * Amelia Amethyst: Anyone has another forcefield? I need some time before I can activate another one with my wand.
 * Jelo: Ask Blue Ocean or Electra. Also, I might sound stupid, but I'm going out of the forcefield.
 * Boom: Yeah, that sounds really stupid, Jelo.
 * Red Ruby: Finally, something you and I can agree on.
 * Electra: Got it! *creates a forcefield around the gang* Sorry captain, but you're not going to destroy anyone here today.
 * Jelo: Boom, me and a few others are going to defeat the electric dolphins. You and the rest take on Captain Dark Blowhole.
 * Green Shadow: I don't know. Are you sure about this?
 * Jelo: Of course, Green Shadow. First off, we need some recruits.
 * Boom: Wait a moment. You expect me to go out of this forcefield? You're crazy, dude!
 * Blast: What's the matter? You scared, pal?
 * Boom: Scared? Scared!? I'll make you eat those words, worthless piece of... *interrupted by Red Fork*
 * Red Fork: Why don't you just go out there and prove us just how strong and brave you are?
 * Boom: You know what? That's just what I'm going to do! Come on guys, let's show these dolphins the true meaning of pain!
 * Red Ruby: Whatever, if you're stupid enough to go out there and risk your own life, so be it.
 * Sean Sapphire: I'm going out there too! *runs out of the forcefield towards the electric dolphins*
 * Red Ruby: Seriously? You too, Sean?!
 * Captain Red Shell: I shall go too. I have lots of experience with electric dolphins.
 * Sean Sapphire: Great! Then let's go!
 * Captain Dark Blowhole: Do you think so? Clearly, you haven't met this electric dolphin!
 * Captain Dark Blowhole: *to his electric dolphins* Leave the crustacean captain to me. Eliminate the "heroes" in this bunch!
 * Captain Dark Blowhole: Not bad. I must admit, you put up a much better fight than the other crab captain from Shadow Creek.
 * Jelo: Electra, try and zap the electric dolphins attacking the forcefield! *slashing at the electric dolphins*
 * Electra: I don't think that'll do any good. They're electric dolphins, Jelo!
 * Blade: However, I bet we can cut them down to size! *tosses cutting blades at the electric dolphins*
 * Jelo: Red Shell, how's Captain Dark Blowhole doing? Did you weaken him? *slashes at the electric dolphins again*
 * Captain Dark Blowhole: Oh, don't worry, my friend. HE'S the one who's going to be weakened any time soon. *continues swinging his sword at Captain Red Shell*
 * Jelo: *kinda annoyed* Sorry, wrong person. I was actually talking to Red Shell.
 * Boom: Nice burn.
 * Jelo: Thanks, Boom.
 * Captain Red Shell: There's no way you will win this battle! *continues fighting Captain Dark Blowhole*
 * Captain Dark Blowhole: Oh, we'll see about that. *continues fighting Captain Red Shell*
 * Alice: Boom, look out behind you! *shoots with her plasma cannon at a couple of electric dolphins that were sneaking from behind Boom*
 * Boom: Thanks! *lifts one of the electric dolphins, and tosses it at the others, knocking several of them out*
 * Jaiden: *freezes some of the electric dolphins* Bet you can't handle the cold!
 * Green Shadow: *fires peas at some of the electric dolphins* If they can't handle the cold, they can't handle the peas either!
 * Kyoji: *knocks out and freezes several electric dolphins with a single ice wave* Let's actually focus on attacking and not talking.
 * Starcade: *grabs one of the electric dolphins by the tail before swinging him around and throwing him at the others, knocking several of them out* Well, they don't know who they're messing with.
 * Red Ruby: *throws some dynamite sticks at the electric dolphins, knocking out a group of them at once* Kyoji's right. Let's just blow them all up already!
 * Jelo: Boy, we're tired...
 * Captain Dark Blowhole: So you're not going to stop? You're clearly injured right now.
 * Captain Red Shell: By that logic, you should stop too. You're just as injured as I am. But you see, it will take more than a few scratches to make me fall.
 * Captain Dark Blowhole: I'll believe that when I see it. The previous crab captain from Shadow Creek I fought has already went down this quick. Are you sure you want to continue fighting me before realizing that it would be a mistake to do so?
 * Captain Red Shell: I was going to ask you the same thing.
 * Captain Dark Blowhole: Nice trick. Too bad you're about to realize that mistake. And it sure is going to be fatal.
 * Captain Dark Blowhole: Who knew electric water would be so effective against crabs? It doesn't matter, I won't stop until you're dead!
 * Lincoln: This fight's getting intense by the minute.
 * Captain Dark Blowhole: Ouch...
 * Red Fork: Great job, captain!
 * Sean Sapphire: Yeah, great job!
 * Red Ruby: Goodbye!
 * Red Ruby: There, the next shard.
 * Amelia Amethyst: So, how many more are there?
 * Lincoln: We don't know.
 * Jelo: Maybe a few more, I guess? Probably 2?
 * Red Fork: Three, to be exact. We got three, and there's only three more to go.
 * Tommy: It's getting darker!
 * Ace: It's night time now. I wouldn't recommend we go villain hunting. The Shadow Dimension is drastically more dangerous during the night.
 * Alice: What should we do then?
 * Ace: I'd suggest we find shelter to stay safe until sunrise. The multi-verse is depending on us, so we can't take any chances.
 * Red Ruby: Who cares if it's more dangerous? I say we continue! No danger of the Shadow Dimension is going to scare this red gem!
 * Toby Topaz: Actually, I'd like to stay.
 * Amelia Amethyst: Me too. But where do we get shelter?
 * Toby Topaz: Hmm...trees?
 * Sean Sapphire: That won't do. Not even Emma would agree to that.
 * Bonk Choy: So wait, are we gonna build our own shelter?
 * Green Shadow: I don't think so, that would take too much time. Maybe we should seek shelter in a distant cave. Or a house if necessary.
 * Blue Ocean: That might be a good idea.
 * Red Fork: Let's start searching then.
 * Amelia Amethyst: Whew, it's getting darker. *shines some light with her wand* We gotta hurry!
 * Starcade: Hey, a cavern!
 * Bonk Choy: A cave?
 * Green Shadow: No, a cavern. They're different words.
 * Bonk Choy: I don't know, should we use that as shelter?
 * Lincoln: I think so!
 * Marco: What if there were villains hiding there?
 * Lisa: Chances of that happening are 87.1% unlikely.
 * Red Fork: I think it's our best bet. It's probably too dangerous to go search for something else anyway.
 * Marco: Okay...
 * Red Ruby: What's so dangerous about the Shadow Dimension at night anyway?
 * Toby Topaz: I wouldn't want to know if I were you...can we go inside?
 * Diana Diamond: Of course.
 * Blue Ocean: Well, now what?
 * Ace: We must stay here overnight.
 * Alice: In that case, I think we should get a good night sleep.
 * Red Fork: But... what about dinner?
 * Toby Topaz: Uh oh.
 * Bonk Choy: If only Red Spoon was here...
 * Amelia Amethyst: Does this cavern have food or something?
 * Red Fork: We'd better get searching.
 * Ace: Just remember to watch out for any plants you don't recognize. Some plants are highly poisonous.
 * Green Shadow: I'm coming along.
 * Starcade: Me too.
 * Red Ruby: Go ahead. I still have my can of beans. *takes out a can of beans, only to find that it's empty* What?!
 * Toby Topaz: What's wrong?
 * Red Ruby: Darn, the can's empty! Whatever, I'm coming along too.
 * Sean Sapphire: Is there any food around here enough to feed everyone?
 * Alice: The only way to know is searching.
 * Sean Sapphire: *shrugs* If you say so.
 * Bonk Choy: But there might be scary monsters out in the cave!
 * Re-Peat Moss: TRICKY even!
 * Green Shadow: Considering that the Shadow Dimension is very dangerous at night, I think the best course of action is that we go search for food together.
 * Red Fork: You're right.
 * Blue Ocean: Let's do it.
 * Ace: Go. I'll stay here at the entrance to make sure no monsters enter the cave.
 * Green Shadow: Good. That means it's time we go food-hunting. Let's go, gang!
 * Blue Ocean: I can't see a thing in here!
 * Red Fork: Wait a moment.
 * Blast: Cool.
 * Alice: Let's continue.
 * Toby Topaz: Ah! It's an animal!
 * Red Ruby: An animal? Oh please.
 * Amelia Amethyst: I can't help but get a bad feeling but...have we met him before somewhere?
 * Star: Uh, what...?
 * Jelo: Are you sure?
 * Lincoln and Marco: BEAR!
 * Lisa: I think it's a good idea to run away.
 * Red Ruby: Ah ha, a bear! How about some of this? *takes out a dynamite stick*
 * Emma Emerald: Red, leave that bear alone!
 * Red Ruby: Why? I could've put an end to this threat quickly, but no, you had to intervene. What the heck, Emma?
 * Emma Emerald: It's just an ordinary animal, it can't possibly be a threat!
 * Red Ruby: So, no explosions?
 * Emma Emerald: No explosions.
 * Red Ruby: Fine, whatever! But tell me, what is this hideous animal doing here?
 * Alice: Maybe he lives here?
 * Red Ruby: It's attacking us! Okay, that's it, I'm going for it! *takes out another dynamite stick*
 * Emma Emerald: Red, stop!
 * Red Ruby: Cut it out, Emma. I'm going to do it!
 * Red Fork: *levitates Red Ruby, immobilizing him* I don't think so.
 * Red Ruby: Not again! How many times do you have to do this to me?!
 * Electra: I know it's hard for you, but just try to think before you act, reckless ruby.
 * Jelo: I agree with Electra.
 * Red Ruby: *gets angry* Shut up, you idiots! Clearly neither of you know how to tackle this monstrosity!
 * Jelo: Red, calm down. If we provoke the bear, we're not gonna make it alive to stop Dark Shell.
 * Electra: Not to mention, using dynamite inside this cavern is a stupid idea. You'll make the cavern collapse, and we'll be buried in rocks!
 * Red Ruby: I like the outcome when YOU get buried in rocks!
 * Diana Diamond: Alright, let's all calm down before we resort to violence.
 * Blue Ocean: What do we do, Emma? You're the animal expert here.
 * Emma Emerald: Calm down, everyone. I'll try the peaceful approach.
 * Emma Emerald: Hey there, bear. I know we haven't met before, but could you please calm down and tell me what's the matter?
 * Bear: I was just trying to have a good night sleep, and all of a sudden I see a bunch of strangers in my home. Wouldn't you freak out too?
 * Emma Emerald: I won't. I'm the queen of my forest, so a bunch of animals wandering around in my home is normal for me. Is there any way we can help you?
 * Bear: I... I don't know. I was just trying to sleep. And when I saw you guys coming, I thought something dangerous was coming to attack me.
 * Emma Emerald: Hm, that does make sense. This is the Shadow Dimension after all.
 * Red Fork: Hey, it's ok, we won't hurt you.
 * Bear: Ok... but what about the monsters outside? It's only a matter of time before they find me in this cavern.
 * Blast: Well, I guess we could fight off any monster that comes in here.
 * Alice: Yeah, we'll make sure no monsters enter the cavern.
 * Bear: Really? You'd do that for me? Thanks guys! In fact, here, have some food. *gives them some fish* I fished it from a nearby river this afternoon.
 * Emma Emerald: No thanks. I'm a vegetarian.
 * Toby Topaz: *pukes at the smell of the fish* 
 * Sean Sapphire: Ah, fresh, fresh fish! Thanks! *grabs a fish and starts eating it*
 * Bonk Choy: *grabs as many fishes as he can* Yup, better grab as much as I can. I'm starving!
 * Red Fork: Yup! *grabs as many as he can*
 * Bear: Well, good luck.
 * Blue Ocean: Hey, gang, we should cook these before eating them. Does anyone know how to start a fire in the middle of the wilderness?
 * Red Ruby: A fire? Sure! *ignites a dynamite stick* Now how about that wood, huh?
 * Blade: I'll get wood!
 * Blade: Will that be enough wood?
 * Green Shadow: That would do.
 * Bonk Choy: I think you mean that "wood" do.
 * Red Ruby: Terrible pun, just terrible. Well, anyway, if that's enough wood...
 * Lincoln: A talking bear. That's something you don't see everyday.
 * Lisa: Affirmative.
 * Jelo: Eh, I've seen weirder stuff. I wouldn't consider a 50-foot giant Inkling who claims herself to be a goddess normal...but I wouldn't consider her a mere joke either.
 * Blue Ocean: You know? Despite how creepy this place is, I think we're doing fine.
 * Lincoln: It's actually pretty impressive.
 * Lemon Glass: I wonder how the others are doing now.
 * Marco: Hopefully they're doing okay.
 * Ink Splash: Paula? What's going on?
 * Paula Python: I don't know. I saw some strange black crabs destroying the forest and setting everything on fire!
 * Pincers: Crabs? You're kidding, right?
 * Dyna-Matic: Scanning tone. Results: Danger in voice.
 * Crusade: I think he's saying that Paula sounds serious.
 * Timmy Turquoise: What's so potentially dangerous about these crabs anyway?
 * Magi-Knight: Black crabs? They do sound familiar. Just like the ones the vampire bat has been telling me about. I think her name was Leech.
 * Octo-Phantom: So, what are we waiting for? Let's go spook those spooks!
 * Ink Splash: Paula, lead us to those crabs you say.
 * Paula Python: O-ok. Follow me.
 * Pincers: Who in the crabs is that?
 * Magi-Knight: That might just be the one who is behind this.
 * Timmy Turquoise: I'm just glad Emma isn't with us. She would've freaked out at this.
 * Whacker Weed: Boy, that crab sure is TRICKY.
 * Dark Trident: We should go stop them, now!
 * Captain Dark Shell: At least, you have came.
 * Ink Splash: Why are you destroying the forest?
 * Captain Dark Shell: You see, I would have lost too much time if I had to search for you, so I had to bring you to me. And by your presence, it's clear that it worked.
 * Pincers: Who the snap are you?
 * Whacker Weed: And what's with the TRICKINESS?
 * Captain Dark Shell: Ignorant beings... I am Captain Dark Shell, the most powerful shadow warrior in the entire universe!
 * Paula Python: Are you sure about that?
 * Captain Dark Shell: Definitely. Word has it that the Shadow Sensei has perished, and that Shogo the Warlord is gone as well. That makes me the most powerful shadow warrior in the entire universe.
 * Magi-Knight: There is still Ace and Akasha, the remaining shadow ninjas in existence.
 * Ink Splash: Well, yes, both of them are dead, but that doesn't explain what you're trying to do here.
 * Captain Dark Shell: Oh, that's simple. I have come to conquer the multi-verse. I know that you hybrids are some of the Locked Room Gang's most powerful allies, so I have come to dispose of you all quickly. Many a villain has forgotten to take you out of the picture, leading to disastrous results. I'll make sure myself that you do not attempt to stop my plans.
 * Ink Splash: Well, you're doing it all wrong, captain. This is our home, and we won't let you burn it down without a fight.
 * Captain Dark Shell: Predictable. Come forward and give me the best you've got. So far I haven't found a single decent opponent anywhere. Hopefully, you'll be able to put up a fight before your inevitable demise.
 * Dyna-Matic: Target: Captain Dark Shell. Target acquired. Commencing offensive assault.
 * Captain Dark Shell: Breaking your spirits as well as your bodies will be sheer delight.
 * Ink Splash: We'll see about that!
 * Magi-Knight: Messing with Team Hybrids will only bring you the hybrid of death and destruction - despair.
 * Whacker Weed: Just get out of here, you TRICKY crab!
 * Captain Dark Shell: Death and destruction are my bread and butter. Despair is what I will inspire in all who oppose me.
 * Captain Dark Shell: So... you're stronger than those weaklings I fought before. Let's see just how long you last.
 * Ink Splash: As long as it's necessary.
 * Captain Dark Shell: This is the destiny of anyone foolish enough to get in my way.
 * Paula Python: Oh yeah? Take this!
 * Ink Splash: That's it! No more games!
 * Ink Splash: No... we won't lose to the likes of you!
 * Captain Dark Shell: Just look at you. You're all injured, barely able to stand up.
 * Paula Python: I don't stand up, I'm a snake.
 * Octo-Phantom: And I'm a spook!
 * Captain Dark Shell: Anyway... It's been nice to fight you, but it's time for your demise.
 * Ink Splash: You... cheater...
 * Captain Dark Shell: Cheater? This isn't a game, dear. This is war. And in war, everything is valid. Army of mine, they are weak now. Finish them!
 * Ink Splash: No... we cannot fall... we can do anything as long as we fight together!
 * Dark Trident: No, Ink Splash!
 * Magi-Knight: A knight never falls under the blades of his opponents!
 * Magi-Knight: No...we have failed...how can this be?
 * Timmy Turquoise: Oh no, it's game over!
 * Pincers: To be fair, this isn't the first time we've been defeated like this. The Ancient God-Element Ninjas once took us all down with an elemental combo as well.
 * Timmy Turquoise: You're not helping, Pincers!
 * Pincers: Technically, you're not either.
 * Dark Trident: Enough, this conversation is getting us nowhere!
 * Captain Dark Shell: Indeed. But don't worry, I'll take you somewhere... to your grave!
 * Paula Python: What?
 * Captain Dark Shell: Sleep tight.

''Meanwhile, in the Shadow Dimension, it's almost sunrise. Ace goes out of the cave to check out the surroundings, and train. However, as he comes out, he sees Red Fork punching a tree.'' Red Fork punches the tree several times in a row, until finally, he hits the tree so hard it comes down. Ace comes to Red Fork, and extends his hand. ''Red Fork uses all his strength, and hits Ace's hand. Ace doesn't have any reaction. However, Red Fork yells as his hoof is hurt.'' Red Fork continues to hit Ace's hand repeatedly. ''Ace dashes towards Red Fork. Red Fork jumps, and attempts to smash Ace with his weight. However, Ace teleports out of the way, and appears behind Red Fork. He then punches Red Fork into a tree. Red Fork gets up, and sees Ace racing towards him. Red Fork scrambles out of the way right before Ace hits him. Ace then shoots several shadow blasts at Red Fork. Red Fork jumps around dodging the shadow blasts, but he gets hit by one of them, falling to the ground. Ace then comes towards him. Red Fork shoots several magic blasts at Ace, but Ace simply does a matrix-like move, dodging the magic blasts that come towards him without stepping away.'' ''Ace then dashes towards Red Fork with his superspeed, and kicks him into a tree so hard, that the tree comes down. Red Fork gets up, and rams into Ace. Ace jumps, avoiding the attack, and shoots shadow blasts at Red Fork as he falls. Red Fork jumps around, dodging, before teleporting next to where Ace will land. Ace lands, and Red Fork shoots a magic blast at him. Ace takes a bit of damage, and quickly turns towards Red Fork, delivering a series of punches and kicks.''
 * Ace: Huh?
 * Ace: What are you doing?
 * Red Fork: *ashamed* Uh... training?
 * Ace: A tree is not a worthy opponent.
 * Ace: I am ready.
 * Red Fork: What?
 * Ace: Hit my hand, as strong as you can.
 * Red Fork: Well, if you say so...
 * Red Fork: Ouch! I think I prefer the tree...
 * Ace: Apologies. Being tortured by the Shadow Sensei for so long, I had no choice but to become harder and overcome the pain. Now I don't feel anything.
 * Red Fork: Wow... that's cool.
 * Ace: *puts up his hand again* Again.
 * Red Fork: So, how long did it take you to... you know, not feel anything?
 * Ace: 10 years under the Shadow Sensei's command.
 * Red Fork: Wow... 10 years? Is there a faster way to not feel anything?
 * Ace: No. Besides... *knocks back Red Fork, making him fall on his back, and his stomach shakes like gelatin* I think hardstyle isn't your thing.
 * Red Fork: That makes sense. *stands up again* Hey, do you think you could teach me to become a better fighter?
 * Ace: Why?
 * Red Fork: Well, there's new villains showing up all the time. I want to be strong enough to help defend my friends. It's not easy to be the leader of the Red Crystals. They all look to me, and I don't want to let them down. And with Captain Dark Shell taking over our dimension, it would really be nice to learn a few tips to become a better fighter.
 * Ace: Well, you're a pretty good fighter, but I do think you could improve.
 * Red Fork: Well, back when Miss Bloomina broke into your dojo, I fought you, and you're a pretty tough opponent. Do you think you could teach me?
 * Ace: Let's give it a try. *gets into a figting pose* Get ready.
 * Red Fork: Sure. I'm ready.
 * Red Fork: Whoa!

''All the noise from the fight wakes up Blade. He goes outside to see what's going on. The sun is rising, and Blade sees in the distance how a surprising battle is taking place. He runs towards the gang.'' ''Several members of the gang wake up, and run outside to watch. Red Fork and Ace continue their battle. Ace delivers another combo of attacks on Red Fork, making him fall against a tree.'' ''Red Fork teleports next to Ace, just for Ace to quickly react and punch him into another tree. Red Fork bounces off of the tree, and then tries to attack Ace again. Ace quickly steps out of the way. Red Fork then bounces off another tree, and jumps over Ace. Ace watches the long jump, and punches Red Fork into a tree just as he lands, ending the fight.'' The gang arrives where Ace and Red Fork are. ''The gang makes their way to the forest. When they arrive, they see Queen Bloomina resting on a throne made of vines in the middle of the forest, being fanned by dark versions of Squash and Bloomerang.'' Boom flies straight into Queen Bloomina and her lackeys, blowing them into a tree with one powerful punch. Boom flies off to another section of the forest, with both Squash and Bloomerang chasing him. ''Queen Bloomina makes Red Ruby fall asleep by emitting a pink gas. Once he's asleep, she tangles him in a bunch of vines.'' Queen Bloomina calls the forest security gaurd, which is: Shadow Bark with a police uniform!? ''Bark begins to make roots grow out of the ground, grabbing several members of the gang and tangling them up. He also makes a few venus flytraps grow out of the ground and attack the gang.'' Shadow Bark makes some thorn bushes appear, and shoot thorns at the gang. The gang continues to fight shadow Bark. ''Bark makes more venus flytraps appear from the ground, and also makes some thorn bushes appear to throw thorns at the gang. Queen Bloomina is above in a tree, watching the fight safely.'' ''Red Fork charges towards Shadow Bark, only for Shadow Bark to make a thorn bush appear right in front of him. Red Fork runs into the bush and gets hurt by the thorns.'' Emma Emerald summons roots which rise from the ground, before controlling them to destroy the thorn bush and attack Shadow Bark. Blade tosses several cutting blades, cutting down the remaning venus flytraps and other plants Shadow Bark summoned. ''Scorch begins to shoot fire blasts recklessly, damaging Shadow Bark even more in the process. Emma Emerald finally controls the roots she summoned to tangle Shadow Bark's limbs and wrap his body up with them.'' ''Shadow Bark creates several venus flytraps, and makes them bite and destroy the roots that were tangled to his limbs. Emma Emerald simply summons more roots to tangle themselves to Shadow Bark's limbs, with even tighter grips.'' Shadow Bark creates several venus flytraps, and makes them bite and destroy the roots that were tangled to his limbs. ''Before Emma can summon more roots to tangle Shadow Bark's limbs, Shadow Bark does this to Emma. However, Blade cuts the roots, freeing Emma.'' ''Sean Sapphire charges towards Shadow Bark, using his sword to cut down all kinds of nature Shadow Bark throws at him. He proceeds to take down Shadow Bark with a sword slash, defeating him. Shadow Bark looks defeated, as he rubs an injure left on his shoulder.'' ''Shadwo Bark leaves with his hand on his shoulder. Then suddenly, Queen Bloomina shows up from above. She takes out what appears to be a scepter made of wood. She uses it to create a triangular flower that shoots thorns at the gang.'' Socrch continues shooting fire blasts at Queen Bloomina, weakening her quickly. Queen Bloomina takes out a spell book, and begins to search for a spell to use against the gang. ''Kyoji, Akasha, Takeshi and Sasuke perform a four-element combo on Queen Bloomina while she is still searching for a spell. The combo hits her, defeating her.'' ''Akasha flies towards Queen Bloomina, ready to kill her. However, Kyoji quickly freezes Akasha with an ice beam, preventing her from killing Queen Bloomina.'' Red Fork checks the list. Queen Bloomina uses her magic to make Red Ruby wake up again. ''The gang goes to find Shadow Spark. Meanwhile, in Ponyville, the Mane Six are having a picnic together, when all of a sudden, they see a dark portal appear. Fluttershy quickly hides behind Rainbow Dash. All six ponies are confused to what is going on. Even though they're all scared, Twilight decides to step closer to the portal to inspect what is causing it. Suddenly, she steps back when she sees Captain Dark Shell and his army of shadow crab soldiers come out of the portal and begin to attack Ponyville. The ponies all around the city begin to run around in panic, yelling in fear.'' ''Captain Dark Shell begins by waving his sword, showering the Mane Six with dozens of shadow blasts. Twilight creates a magic forcefield to protect herself and her friends. Meanwhile, Pinkie Pie takes out her party cannon and begins to shoot at Captain Dark Shell. Captain Dark Shell flies around to dodge the shots of the party cannon, and then uses all his strength to slash the forcefield with the sword, breaking it in one hit. The blow is so powerful that it knocks back the six ponies.'' ''Rainbow Dash flies up high in the sky, and then, flies straight down towards Catpain Dark Shell, getting faster each second, until she's so fast, she breaks the barrier of sound, creating a sonic boom with a rainbow. Captain Dark Shell sees her coming, and teleports out of the way, causing Rainbow Dash to crash straight into the ground, leaving her knocked out.'' ''Applejack kicks a tree so hard, that the tree falls on Captain Dark Shell. Captain Dark Shell slashes the tree apart with his sword, and then shoots several shadow waves at the Mane Six. Fluttershy, scared, hides behind a rock. There, some of her animal friends come to support her.'' Meanwhile, Rarity, Applejack and Pinkie Pie have been defeated as well, leaving only Twilight & Fluttershy. ''Twilight shoots a magic beam at Captain Dark Shell, which he counters with a shadow beam. Both of them struggle for a while, until Captain Dark Shell's shadow beam overcomes Twilight's magic beam. Twilight is hit by the shadow beam, and falls to the ground, injured.'' Fluttershy flies away from Captain Dark Shell, ready to try what her animal friends have suggested. ''Captain Dark Shell watches as the buildings burn, and the ponies run away in fear and despair. Meanwhile, the gang is heading back to Shadow Creek, ready to confront Shadow Spark.'' ''However, just as the gang is approaching Shadow Spark's base, they're intercepted by what appears to be a Shadow Fork-bot. THis robot rams quickly through the entire gang, and stops right in front of them.'' ''Shadow Fork-bot charges towards Red Fork. Red Fork jumps, and bounces on Shadow Fork-bot. He then lands safely, and sticks his tongue out at Shadow Fork-bot.'' Red Fork runs off, with Shadow Fork-bot following him. ''The gang proceeds to go to Shadow Spark's base. Once they reach Shadow Spark's base, they see several pony robots guarding the entrance.''
 * Blade: Ace is fighting Red Fork!
 * Ace: Stop trying to hit me and hit me!
 * Red Fork: Ouch...
 * Ace: How did I beat you?
 * Red Fork: You're... faster...
 * Ace: That's not true. I'm not stronger than you, I'm not faster than you, I'm not more powerful than you.
 * Red Fork: But... you have shadow powers, and super speed, and super strength.
 * Ace: Red Fork, you're just as fast as me. You're just as strong, if not stronger than me. And my shadow powers, what is your magic for? You can teleport, you can shoot magic blasts, you can levitate objects. You're the equivalent of a strong shadow ninja.
 * Red Fork: Oh...
 * Ace: I repeat. How did I beat you?
 * Red Fork: I don't know...
 * Ace: Red Fork, the only true difference between my skill and yours, is discipline, mental strength. More than muscles, the mind is the most powerful weapon. You are a strong fighter, Red Fork, there's no doubt. But you need to improve your discipline. When you fight, you get overconfident. You must understand this: There is no superior, and there is no inferior. There is only the battle.
 * Red Fork: Huh?
 * Ace: No opponent is weak. Every opponent has the potential to defeat you if you underestimate them. Do not give them that privilege.
 * Red Fork: Ok.
 * Ace: Remember, your focus must always be on the battle. Not on looking cool, not on showing off. Your focus must be on the battle. That's the only way to ensure your victory, and unleash your true potential.
 * Red Fork: Got it.
 * Ace: Remember to always focus Red Fork. I have seen your power. You have the potential to become a much greater fighter than you are now. But you must take your battles seriously. With your mind focused, you will go a long way.
 * Red Fork: Thanks, Ace.
 * Green Shadow: There you are.
 * Bonk Choy: What are you two doing?
 * Kyoji: They're training with each other, Bonk Choy.
 * Bonk Choy: Oh yeah...training...*scratches his head*
 * Ace: We're done.
 * Red Fork: Oh, hi guys!
 * Ace: Now that we're all awake, we can continue our mission.
 * Jelo: Well, let's get going. The whole world's not gonna save itself, ya know.
 * Green Shadow: True.
 * Red Ruby: *suddenly appears* I heard explosions! Where are they?
 * Diana Diamond: There aren't any, Red.
 * Red Ruby: Oh, come on! Could've sworn I heard one.
 * Kyoji: Ace and Red Fork were training, that's what's going on.
 * Red Ruby: Oh.
 * Toby Topaz: Oh, goodie...
 * Amelia Amethyst: So what are we waiting for? Let's go! Who are we going for next?
 * Jelo: Probably a Dark Dr. Zack or whatever.
 * Red Fork: Let's see... the next villain on our list is... *reads list* Queen Bloomina the Dark?
 * Blue Ocean: What's up with these names?
 * Sean Sapphire: And "Miss Bloomina" is the queen of the forest in this dimension?
 * Emma Emerald: She must have overthrown the reign of my own shadow doppelganger!
 * Red Ruby: Well, what are we waiting for? Let's go blow up that flower!
 * Blue Ocean: Yeah! Let's go!
 * Boom: To the forest, gang!
 * Red Ruby: Who put YOU in charge?
 * Diana Diamond: No one, let's just get going.
 * Sean Sapphire: Forward!
 * Jelo: So that must be Queen Bloomina, the shadow version of Miss Bloomina.
 * Gary Garnet: Well, that's just absurd.
 * Sean Sapphire: But nothing we can't handle.
 * Red Ruby: I know, right? *takes out a dynamite stick* I'll throw this at her face, which will make her burst into flames. Boom! Easy!
 * Ace: No.
 * Alice: Not only would that not defeat her, but you'd alert them of our presence. We need a better plan.
 * Blue Ocean: How about someone distracts her lackeys so that the rest of the gang can stop her?
 * Red Ruby: Or we can just start a forest fire. Period.
 * Emma Emerald: Objection!
 * Red Ruby: Whatever. It's just my idea.
 * Sean Sapphire: We can just send someone powerful enough to distract and beat up her lackeys. That would be easier, no?
 * Jelo: Boom, you do it.
 * Boom: No problem!
 * Queen Bloomina: Ugh! What are yo up to?
 * Boom: Beat you up, of course.
 * Queen Bloomina: Loyal subjects of mine, seize this insolent ruffian!
 * Squash: Yes, your majesty!
 * Bloomerang: Immediately!
 * Queen Bloomina: How uncouth!
 * Red Ruby: How about you shut your mouth?
 * Emma Emerald: So you must be Queen Bloomina the Dark, the one who overthrown the previous queen of the forest.
 * Queen Bloomina: And you are?
 * Richard: We're the Locked Room Gang!
 * Jenny: We know Captain Dark Shell gave you a shard of the Amulet of the Dark Seas.
 * Red Fork: So go ahead and give it up!
 * Queen Bloomina: You don't fool me with your lies! I know why you're really here! You've come to destroy this beautiful forest!
 * Blue Ocean: What?
 * Queen Bloomina: Well, I'm not going to allow that!
 * Green Shadow: Destroy this forest? No way!
 * Starcade: We'll never do that!
 * Emma Emerald: I know we both love the beauty of nature, but...
 * Red Ruby: Oh, just give up the shard already, you dumb flower. You can't possibly defeat all of us by yourself.
 * Queen Bloomina: That's it. You'll be the first to go down for insolence!
 * Gary Guppy: Uh oh...
 * Queen Bloomina: Security!
 * Shadow Bark: What seems to be the problem, you majesty?
 * Queen Bloomina: These ruthless invaders are trying to take over the forest!
 * Shadow Bark: No way! We've got ourselves a good ol' fashioned team of forest wreckers! Well, we're not going to allow that!
 * Queen Bloomina: Seize them, my loyal assistant.
 * Shadow Bark: Yes, your majesty.
 * Lincoln: Okay, there are a few things you got wrong. We're not forest-wreckers. Some of us even take care of nature! I doubt you'd listen anyway, though.
 * Jelo: Gang, we might need to find a way out of this tangled vinework.
 * Shadow Bark: You're not going anywhere, forest wreckers!
 * Lincoln: I just told you! We're not forest wreckers!
 * Jelo: Hmm...Red, destroy these thorn bushes. Emma, fight fire with fire.
 * Electra: That reckless gem is asleep, didn't you see?
 * Jelo: Oh...right...sorry. Things just got dire.
 * Emma Emerald: What? No, I can't do that! That's breaking my code of honor as forest queen!
 * Star: I'll do it! Flaming Rainbow Beam! *shoots a scorching rainbow beam at the thorn bushes*
 * Marco: Hiii-yaaahh! *karate-chops and karate-kicks a venus flytrap*
 * Lisa: *sigh* Hypocrisy strikes.
 * Sean Sapphire: Take this! *chops off a few roots and stems of venus flytraps with his sword*
 * Emma Emerald: Sean, what are you doing?
 * Sean Sapphire: Sorry Emma, but desperate times call for desperate measures. We need that shard at all costs!
 * Amelia Amethyst: Well, he has a point. *her leg gets tangled up by roots* Hey!
 * Sean Sapphire: Don't worry, Amelia! *chops off the roots tangling Amelia Amethyst's leg*
 * Amelia Amethyst: Thanks.
 * Sean Sapphire: No problem. You see, Emma? These plants are posing a threat to us! I know you're the forest queen and all, but we don't have time to protect evil nature! Would you want the Locked Room Gang to fall to the roots of a villain?
 * Emma Emerald: *thinks for a while before agreeing* Very well. But just this once, understood?
 * Sean Sapphire: I can't guarantee that, but sure. Now let's go fight some plants!
 * Emma Emerald: *reluctantly* Sure.
 * Shadow Bark: You're not going to get free that easily!
 * Red Fork: Time to wreck you into pieces!
 * Shadow Bark: You'll be the first to be under arrest!
 * Luan: That wasn't sharp thinking! Okay, even I'll have to admit that was too soon.
 * Blue Ocean: We need a plan.
 * Jelo: Hmm...Emma, try and summon good nature.
 * Emma Emerald: I guess I can try that.
 * Shadow Bark: Agh! So, another nature controller, huh?
 * Emma Emerald: At least I don't abuse my powers of controlling nature, unlike you.
 * Electra: Surrender, useless cop!
 * Shadow Bark: I'm an official forest policeman! I'm not going to fail my queen.
 * Blade: Well, time to cut you down to size.
 * Shadow Bark: No!
 * Scorch: Fire!
 * Emma Emerald: I'm sorry, Bark, but I can't accept you manipulating nature like this.
 * Shadow Bark: But you're manipulating nature as well!
 * Emma Emerald: I don't manipulate nature for the purpose of evil, unlike you.
 * Shadow Bark: Is helping my queen evil to you?
 * Emma Emerald: Your queen is evil, you just don't see it.
 * Emma Emerald: I won't let you go until you stop this.
 * Shadow Bark: Too bad.
 * Shadow Bark: You're just losing your time. I won't give up to the likes of you.
 * Emma Emerald: Thank you, Blade.
 * Shadow Bark: Stop that!
 * Blade: Nope! Not until you cut it out!
 * Shadow Bark: Never!
 * Scorch: Then you'll burn down with the flames of justice! Fire!
 * Sean Sapphire: Or you can just submit yourself to surrender. To the tip of my sword!
 * Shadow Bark: Ouch...
 * Star: Aah! Thornstorm! *runs away, along with Marco*
 * Toby Topaz: Wait for me! *follows Star and Marco*
 * Sean Sapphire: Hey, come back here, you cowards!
 * Amelia Amethyst: *creates a forcefield to protect the gang from the thorns* Yikes! She can do magic too?
 * Emma Emerald: I never once saw Miss Bloomina from our dimension using magic tricks. This is really bad news.
 * Sean Sapphire: Well, I say we should use a combo attack and get this over and done with. I doubt this forcefield can hold us long from the thorns.
 * Blue Ocean: *helps strengthen the forcefield* Well, go ahead and do it. We'll keep the forcefield up as long as necessary.
 * Scorch: Fire! *shoots fire blasts recklessly at Queen Bloomina*
 * Queen Bloomina: Agh! *looks weakened* Stop that!
 * Scorch: No! You'll be scorched by the flames of justice! Fire!
 * Queen Bloomina: Eek! Ok, I didn't want to have to do this, but there's no other choice!
 * Sean Sapphire: Kyoji, this would probably be a good time for an elemental combo. She's distracted!
 * Kyoji: You're right about that. It's time to perform it again.
 * Blue Ocean: Knockout!
 * Akasha: Wow, I never knew how satisfying it feels to burn that flower. That felt great!
 * Kyoji: Good job, everyone. Now we're just another step closer to getting all the shards.
 * Bonk Choy: Yeah! *grabs the shard from Queen Bloomina* In your face, royal butt!
 * Queen Bloomina: Ugh... *falls from above and hits the ground* How is this possible?
 * Red Fork: We're the Locked Room Gang!
 * Queen Bloomina: This is terrible! What am I going to do now? When Captain Dark Shell finds out what happened, he'll kill me off with weed spray! *terrified*
 * Akasha: How about I kill you before he does? *an aura of fire appears around her* No big deal, I can help end your suffering.
 * Kyoji: No, Akasha. She has had enough.
 * Akasha: Ugh...this flower is just as annoying as the one back in our dimension! So why not?
 * Kyoji: This isn't how we handle situations as the Locked Room Gang. We're only supposed to stop villains from their evil machinations, not going to the extent of murder.
 * Akasha: I don't abide by these rules! So get out of my way, this flower's life is mine!
 * Kyoji: Apologies for that, Queen Bloomina. And don't worry, we'll be the ones who will stop Captain Dark Shell. Once we collect all the other shards, that is.
 * Queen Bloomina: I doubt you can actually defeat him, but I appreciate the intention.
 * Blue Ocean: Woo-hoo! That's four shards, and only two left!
 * Kernely: Who's next, Red Fork?
 * Red Fork: Next up is... Shadow Spark?
 * Boom: What!? That liar had a shard all along!?
 * Amelia Amethyst: He has?
 * Marco: Wait, what?!
 * Toby Topaz: Also, Miss, I mean Queen Bloomina, can you please wake Red Ruby up?
 * Amelia Amethyst: Pretty please?
 * Queen Bloomina: Are you sure you want that? He's much less annoying when he's asleep.
 * Toby Topaz: But he's our friend!
 * Lincoln: Yeah!
 * Queen Bloomina: Fine... but please teach him to shut up. If he keeps blurting out threats like crazy, believe me it's only going to be a matter of time before someone kills him for it.
 * Red Ruby: What the? *stands up quickly and looks around his surroundings* What am I doing here lying on the ground? And where's that dumb flower?
 * Diana Diamond: Red, you can stop now. We have the shard.
 * Red Ruby: And how exactly did I find myself on the ground?
 * Amelia Amethyst: The flower cast a sleep spell on you. Don't worry about it, Red, we took care of it.
 * Boom: She also said you should learn to shut up, which to be honest, I agree with completely.
 * Red Ruby: And you expect me to listen to you? You don't scare me, you know.
 * Boom: I don't care if you're scared or not. I can still beat you up in less than 60 seconds.
 * Electra: Besides, I wouldn't recommend you start threatening Boom, or else I'll pitch in as well.
 * Boom: Simply put, I'm not the only one who wants you to control your recklessness.
 * Red Ruby: Why you...
 * Sean Sapphire: Let's not waste any more time and seize the next shard.
 * Coconut Crab: You're right, Mr. Sean.
 * Alice: So Red Fork, you said Shadow Spark has the next shard?
 * Red Fork: Yup!
 * Boom: Well, then let's go take down that liar!
 * Starcade: Yup!
 * Bonk Choy: How did none of us see that on the list earlier?
 * Green Shadow: It doesn't matter, let's go!
 * Rainbow Dash: What the!?
 * Applejack: In the name of apples, what's going on here?
 * Twilight: Who are you? And why are you attacking Ponyville?
 * Captain Dark Shell: Oh, I believe we haven't met yet. I am Captain Dark Shell, the most powerful shadow warrior in existence. And this magical kingdom is going to be part of my new empire!
 * Rainbow Dash: No way! We're not going to let you do that!
 * Pinkie Pie: Yeah! Ponyville is our home!
 * Rarity: We won't let you and your army turn our beautiful world into a disastrous wasteland.
 * Captain Dark Shell: And what do you plan to do about it.
 * Twilight: We'll send you out of here. Girls, ready to use the Elements of Harmony?
 * Rainbow Dash: Uh, there's one problem with that idea. Red Fork has them.
 * Twilight: Oh... right.
 * Rarity: Where is he anyway?
 * Applejack: It's not like him to be missing when we need him.
 * Captain Dark Shell: What's the matter? Are you ponies too soft and weak to fight me without your precious elements?
 * Rainbow Dash: That's it! We're going to beat you up!
 * Twilight: We won't let you take over Equestria. Even without the elements, we'll fight for our home!
 * The other five ponies: Yeah!
 * Captain Dark Shell: So another battle begins? How delightful. After all, what could be better than shattering the spirit of six naive little ponies? Seeing you suffer, seeing you heartbroken, seeing you fall in front of all of those you care about... this will be perfect.
 * Rainbow Dash: Alright, it's time for a sonic rainboom!
 * Applejack: Rainbow Dash! Alright, that's it. Someone ought to teach you a lesson!
 * Fluttershy: What? No, I can't... *a bird chirps* Well... yes, my friends need me... *a squirrel chirps* But, how? That crab is too powerful. *A rabbit whispers into her ear* You'll help me? *the animals nod* Ok... let's go.
 * Fluttershy: What's the plan, Twilight?
 * Twilight: Stay back. I'll use my magic to try and stop him.
 * Fluttershy: Oh no!
 * Captain Dark Shell: What's the matter? Maybe friendship isn't so magic after all?
 * Twilight: Fluttershy... get... help... *closes her eyes, left unconscious*
 * Fluttershy: Oh... who could help us?
 * Captain Dark Shell: No one! No one can stop me!
 * Fluttershy: *a bird chirps* What?! No, that's too dangerous... *a rabbit looks at her* Well, that might work, but... *the rabbit jumps onto her, and taps his foot repeatedly* Ok, you're right. I'll do it.
 * Captain Dark Shell: No need to worry. She can't do anything on her own. Equestria is mine now.
 * Green Shadow: Great, we're back at Shadow Creek!
 * Bonk Choy: Oh. So we're finally out of that forest?
 * Green Shadow: Yes. But I can't seem to think of why Shadow Spark would hide the shard from us, when we're going to take it from him anyway later.
 * Starcade: Yeah, maybe he's up to something more dangerous than that wrecking ball machine.
 * Red Fork: You're right. Either way, we're going to stop him.
 * Shadow Fork-bot: You must leave Shadow Spark's territory immediately.
 * Green Shadow: What? No!
 * Jelo: Nope. We're here for another amulet shard.
 * Red Ruby: Where's your creator? Tell him to come out and fight us himself if neither of you are cowards!
 * Toby Topaz: Look, we don't want any more trouble, Mr. Robot. Can we please have the shard?
 * Shadow Fork-Bot: If you do not want more trouble, you will leave immediately. Otherwise, I will be forced to make you leave.
 * Lemon Glass: This isn't good.
 * Toby Topaz: Yeah.
 * Lincoln: *sigh* Guess it's the hard way then.
 * Luan: You mean "shard" way?
 * Marco: Seriously? Are you just going to make puns all day?
 * Luan: Why not? Someone's gotta keep the group's spirits up!
 * Bonk Choy: I kinda agree.
 * Sean Sapphire: Let's just fight the robot already. *draws his sword*
 * Amelia Amethyst: Red Fork, can't you fight it?
 * Red Fork: Sure! You guys go ahead. I'll take care of this!
 * Red Fork: Bet you can't catch me!
 * Shadow Fork-bot: Objective detected. Destroy!
 * Amelia Amethyst: Okay, he's gone. So what's the plan?
 * Sean Sapphire: We go into Shadow Spark's base and confront him again, that's what.
 * Red Ruby: And blow him up. Period.
 * Electra: *sarcasm* Because blowing him up is clearly not going to blow up the shard in the process. Yay, you're SOOOO smart!
 * Alice: We can't afford to be reckless. We have to do things carefully.
 * Red Ruby: And we certainly can't afford to be sarcastic jerks about it. *stares at Electra* Where in this base is that pony anyway?
 * Blue Ocean: If Shadow Spark thinks like Bright Spark, he probably has an office or something at the center of his base. We should check out there.
 * Starcade: Of course, an office.
 * Green Shadow: Let's quickly go there before Shadow Spark unleashes his next plan.
 * Marco: What are we waiting for? Let's move!
 * Blue Ocean: Ok, I'll admit this guy defends his base better than the Bright Spark from our dimension.
