Story
The scene cuts to Kyoji's house in Icicle Isle, as the local ninja hero has just finished putting up decorations for his birthday party. ''Suddenly, there is a knock on the door. It's Green Shadow, Bonk Choy and Re-Peat Moss with their gifts.'' The Retro Rebels arrive at Kyoji's house. Green Shadow, Bonk Choy, Re-Peat Moss and the Retro Rebels step into Kyoji's house. The Red Crystals arrive at Kyoji's house as well. Blast gives Kyoji a gift with a note that says: "Happy Birthday Kyoji. Open this box only when the time comes." ''Green Shadow turns around to look at Hot Air and Fat Cat attempting to eat as much food as possible, while the other Retro Rebels are attempting to stop the two. Meanwhile, Red Fork is also devouring all the food on the table.'' Suddenly, there is a knock on the door. The door reveals Jelo, Star, Marco, Janna, Jackie and the Elemental YT Trio. Star casts a spell that lights up the candles...and burns Bonk Choy's face. The gang gathers around to sing the customary "Happy Birthday" song to Kyoji, before asking him for his birthday wish. ''Kyoji does so, and the gang cheers for him for having reached 23 years old. The gang, well maybe except Hot Air and Fat Cat who were too full to continue, are happily eating their shares of cake.''  Eventually, nighttime falls and the gang has to leave as the birthday party ends. ''The gang disperses. 2 hours later, Starcade approaches to Kyoji's house with her present for him, along with the other Retro Rebels.'' Starcade opens her present for the Retro Rebels to see. The Retro Rebels hear loud crashing sounds coming from Kyoji's house. The Retro Rebels rush towards Kyoji's house, where they discover a muscular figure carrying an unconscious Kyoji with him. ??? leaps at the Retro Rebels, taking out an electric hammer. ''??? slams the ground with his electric hammer, firing an electric pulse at Starcade. Starcade dodges out of the way and takes out her laser pistols, firing them at ???. ??? effortlessly swings the lasers away with his electric hammer, with one of them hurting Starcade. He proceeds to completely knock out Starcade with his electric hammer.'' ''Test Subject Blue fires an array of proton bullets at ???, who creates an electric forcefield to not only defend himself from the proton bullets but deflect them back at Test Subject Blue. ??? clobbers Test Subject Blue by the suit's chest, damaging the suit heavily.'' ''Viking attempts to clobber ??? with his own hammer, who responds by blocking the attack with his hammer as well. Both fighters have a brief hammer duel, and as their hammers come into contact while their possessors are attempting to clobber each other, Viking gets electrocuted by ???'s hammer's flowing current. ??? takes out Viking as well.'' Licorice and Smokey Bacon fire ice waves at ???, who blocks them with his electric forcefield, causing the ice shards to fly into both ice cream scoops, knocking them out at the same time. ''Owl and Fat Cat use their laser attacks against ???, who blocks them all with his electric forcefield. Until at last, when both animals succumb to exhaustion, ??? strikes at them.'' ''Hot Air ascends high in the air, while throwing bombs and his boomerfan at ???. After the weapons fail to do anything to ???, ??? flies into the air and chases after Hot Air who is caught by surprise. ??? pops the hot air balloon with ease, before Hot Air could draw his sword. Hot Air then crash lands into the ground with his hot air balloon.'' ''Warlock teleports around, attempting to bop ??? in the head with his staff. To his surprise, ??? is quick enough to predict his movements. Warlock next tries to cast some dark magic at ???, but they did very little damage to ???, who retaliates by clobbering him in the head. When at last all the Retro Rebels, except Pink Angel, have been taken out, ??? flees with an unconscious Kyoji. 1 hour later, Kyoji wakes up to find himself in a very familiar place.'' The scene cuts to Pink Angel, flying to the different houses, starting with Red Fork's house. Inside the house... ''Blue Ocean chooses scissors, but Red Fork doesn't choose anything. Instead he smiles.'' Blue Ocean walks to the door, and opens it. Blue Ocean then yells at full volume. Pink Angel flies to the L.E.A.F. Headquarters and knocks on the door. ''Green Shadow, Bonk Choy and Re-Peat Moss run to Kyoji's house, while Pink Angel flies to Jelo's house. Pink Angel knocks on Jelo's door.'' ''Jelo and Pink Angel run to recruit Star, Marco, Janna, Jackie and the elemental ninja trio. First stop, Diaz Residence.'' Pink Angel and the others meet up with the gang outside Kyoji's house, where the Retro Rebels are seen knocked out. The Red Crystals come to meet up with the rest of the gang. The other Retro Rebels wake up from their unconsciousness. Test Subject Blue turns around to see Starcade with her face planted on the ground.
 * Kyoji: And there we go! The decorations are done! I wonder where the others are.
 * Green Shadow: Happy birthday, Kyoji!
 * Bonk Choy: Yeah!
 * Re-Peat Moss: TRICKY day, eh?
 * Kyoji: Yeah. I put up the decorations myself. Thanks for coming!
 * Green Shadow: No problem.
 * Kyoji: Where's Starcade though? Isn't she with you guys?
 * Bonk Choy: Nah, she's coming with the Retro Rebels. She said something about having the "perfect gift". *points to the Retro Rebels approaching* Oh, there she is!
 * Kyoji: Starcade, you're here!
 * Starcade: Hi, Kyoji. About what Bonk Choy said about my gift to you...
 * Kyoji: Yes?
 * Starcade: It's...it's...
 * Hot Air: Starcade gave it to me! Yeah! She decided that it isn't fitting for you, and that it's more fitting for me!
 * Kyoji: Is that true?
 * Hot Air: No, April Fool's!
 * Kyoji: I didn't see that coming.
 * Smokey Bacon: Your gift's in progress. Starcade wants it to be special for you.
 * Kyoji: I see. Don't worry, Starcade, I can wait as long as you wish.
 * Starcade: Oh no, I don't like to keep you waiting. I'll have your gift delivered by tonight. In fact, I'll personally come to your doorstep again to give it to you.
 * Kyoji: That's nice. Anyway, come in! I prepared lots of stuff for everyone!
 * Kyoji: Thank you guys for coming. By the way, where are the others?
 * Red Fork: Hi guys!
 * Green Shadow: It's the Red Crystals!
 * Kyoji: Hello! You're here for my birthday party?
 * Blast: Of course we are!
 * Alice: Happy birthday Kyoji!
 * Tommy: So, how many years old are you now?
 * Green Shadow: He's 23.
 * Kyoji: Yeah. Come in, I have prepared lots of food, especially for Red Fork who I know he's hungry right about now. *shows a huge spread of food on the dining table* Help yourselves!
 * Red Fork: Thanks! *starts devouring the food*
 * Blue Ocean: Hey, leave some for the rest of us, Red Fork!
 * Bonk Choy: He's hogging the food!
 * Hot Air: Hey, that's my food! *flies towards Red Fork and starts eating the food too*
 * Fat Cat: Meow! *does the same as Hot Air*
 * Test Subject Blue: Hot Air, Fat Cat, not you too!
 * Kyoji: Well, just don't wreck the furniture while you're at it!
 * Blast: By the way, Captain Red Shell couldn't come because he was busy fighting King Squidmir at the Crab Empire, but he wanted me to give you this.
 * Kyoji: Well, it's on April Fool's Day, so I might be expecting a prank in it. But knowing Captain Red Shell, he wouldn't really do such a thing. I'll wait until the time comes, like the note said.
 * Green Shadow: Excellent. I just hope everything goes smoothly for the birthday party.
 * Green Shadow: Well, almost everything.
 * Test Subject Blue: Hey guys, we kinda need your help to stop Hot Air and Fat Cat! They've gone crazy over the food!
 * Blue Ocean: I'd worry more about Red Fork leaving us without anything to eat.
 * Blast: So, while those three eat all our food, what else can we do?
 * Green Shadow: Good thing we have the cake here. *takes out the birthday cake for Kyoji* Now, where are the candles?
 * Blue Ocean: Here they are. *gives her the candles*
 * Green Shadow: Thanks! *places the candles carefully on the cake* Lighter?
 * Smokey Bacon: I'll get it! *attempts to light the candles but freezes them instead*
 * Licorice: Smokey!!!
 * Smokey Bacon: Oops.
 * Green Shadow: If only there was some other way...
 * Blue Ocean: Who could that be?
 * Lemon Glass: I'll open the door. *opens the door*
 * Jackie: Hey guys!
 * Jelo: We're here for Kyoji's birthday party.
 * Star: Are we late?
 * Blue Ocean: Only if you wanted some food. *points at the table, where Red Fork has finished devouring everything* Otherwise, you're on time.
 * Green Shadow: We're in need of help to light these candles...
 * Rebecca: Sorry, but I'm a water ninja. I only extinguish fires, not create them.
 * Jaiden: I don't have fire powers. Neither does Den nor Rebecca.
 * Star: We can try this spell though! Dragon Fire Devastation!
 * Star: Oops.
 * CypherDen: That's gonna leave a mark!
 * Bonk Choy: Augh...not again! Being scalded by hot cocoa was bad enough as it is...
 * Alice: Well, at least it lighted up the candles.
 * Green Shadow: Let's cut the cake before the three come to eat it up.
 * Janna: Which three?
 * Green Shadow: Them. *points to Red Fork, who is still looking around for food, and also Hot Air and Fat Cat who are now full* Oh, I didn't think they were already full.
 * Janna: Looks like somebody's gotta work out!
 * Red Fork: I'm never full! *looks at the cake*
 * Blue Ocean: No, stay away from the cake! *knock him out with by hitting him with a pan*
 * Lemon Glass: Why did you do that?
 * Blue Ocean: It had to be done.
 * Green Shadow: Well, let's get the cake ready.
 * Jelo: Gang, let's greet our favorite ninja on his special day!
 * Starcade: What's your birthday wish, Kyoji?
 * Kyoji: Well, even though I wish for the best for all of my friends, there is one special wish in particular that I have. It's for someone who's not here.
 * Blast: Captain Red Shell?
 * Kyoji: No, although I do wish the best for him too.
 * Starcade: The gemstones?
 * Kyoji: Not them either. That someone is an old friend of mine and a classmate of mine in regular ninja school when we were kids. I haven't heard of him in years. The last I heard of him, he's an electric ninja training by himself in the mountains. He fled when he was told to help his father conquer Japan, and even though his father sent his forces after him, he was never found. His name is Takeshi.
 * CypherDen: Electric ninja? I've never heard of him.
 * Kyoji: That's because he started training earlier than you think.
 * Alice: Takeshi?
 * Blast: So, what's your wish for him?
 * Kyoji: I wish for the best of him, I hope he's still alive after all his years of solitary training in the wild. I also wish that he will be able to return someday.
 * Green Shadow: That's nice.
 * Blast: I hope we get to meet him personally some day.
 * Bonk Choy: Takeshi sounds cool!
 * Re-Peat Moss: I hope he isn't the TRICKY type.
 * Jelo: Well then. Happy birthday, Kyoji. You may blow the candles.
 * Red Fork: More cake!
 * Hot Air: No...more...
 * Fat Cat: Meow...
 * Lemon Glass: I've got this covered. *gives Red Fork a cake*
 * Red Fork: Yeah! *eats the cake*
 * Alice: You brought another cake?
 * Lemon Glass: It's a general rule. Just like with Milo you have to prepare for everything going wrong, with Red Fork you have to prepare for his unstoppable appetite.
 * Alice: Makes sense.
 * Red Fork: *finishes eating the cake* Now let's party!
 * Jackie Lynn: It's night time. Looks like we better leave.
 * Kyoji: Thanks for coming, guys! It means a lot.
 * Green Shadow: Well, we would like to stay longer but we gotta go. I hope you like our presents.
 * Kyoji: I do. Thank you.
 * Starcade: Speaking of presents, don't forget that I'll show up here again tonight with your present. You are sure gonna like it!
 * Kyoji: I will remember that.
 * Star: Bye Kyoji!
 * Marco: Goodbye, Kyoji! Happy birthday!
 * Blast: Good night Kyoji!
 * Red Fork: Great party! Happy birthday, and good night!
 * Test Subject Blue: It's probably because of the food.
 * Owl: *struggling to help Fat Cat* Come on, Fat Cat! Let's go!
 * Blue Ocean: It was the best party I've been at since Red Fork and I left Equestria! Bye!
 * CypherDen: See ya tomorrow!
 * Starcade: I hope he likes this gift.
 * Test Subject Blue: What did you get him anyway?
 * Starcade: Though it's a secret I have to keep from Kyoji, I'll be telling it to you guys.
 * Hot Air: Can I have it?
 * Starcade: No, it's for Kyoji. Besides, I've given you plenty of inventions.
 * Smokey Bacon: What's that anyway?
 * Starcade: It's my new invention Automated Mix-n-Matcher 4000. I've been working on it with Gary Garnet.
 * Smokey Bacon: What does it do?
 * Starcade: If any possession of his gets wrecked, Kyoji will be able to use this to fix them back to their original state.
 * Test Subject Blue: That might come in handy for him.
 * Starcade: It will. Let's get moving, guys!
 * Pink Angel: What was that?
 * Test Subject Blue: I heard that too.
 * Warlock: My staff is detecting a distress signal!
 * Starcade: Where is it coming from?
 * Warlock: It's from...Kyoji's house?!
 * Starcade: Kyoji?! He's in trouble!
 * Viking: It's HAMMER TIME!
 * Starcade: Hey! What do you think you're doing?
 * ???: It's none of your business, girl! Now go back to where you belong!
 * Test Subject Blue: It is if it's concerning our friends. *points his proton cannon at ???* Now let him go.
 * ???: If you want your friend back, you gotta go through me!
 * Viking: He's got a hammer too?!
 * Starcade: Pink Angel, go get help from the Locked Room gang! And take the present!
 * Hot Air: Why not me?
 * Starcade: You will need more basic etiquette before I'll let you handle the job.
 * Hot Air: Fair enough.
 * Pink Angel: *takes the present* I'll get them here as fast as I can!
 * ???: Looks like I'll just have to take care of the rest of you!
 * Starcade: Simple enough. You're just a breeze compared to the other villains we've defeated!
 * ???: Cute. Let's see how you like this!
 * Test Subject Blue: Starcade! Are you okay? *turns to ???* You're gonna pay for what you've done to our leader!
 * Viking: I said it once and I'll say it again! It's HAMMER TIME!
 * Smokey Bacon: He's the electric type, is he?
 * Licorice: He'll fail against our ice breaths!
 * Owl: Maybe cold isn't the best way to go. Let's see how he takes the heat! Show him what you got, Fat Cat!
 * Fat Cat: MEOW!
 * Hot Air: Well, he can't get me up here. I mean, he can't fly as high as me, right?
 * Warlock: This mad man has gone too far! I shall take matters into my own hands!
 * Kyoji: Where am I? What is all this? *sees someone approaching towards him* That person looks...familiar. No way...it can't be, can it?
 * ???: Long time no see, Kyoji.
 * Pink Angel: Knock knock.
 * Red Fork: *from his bedroom* It's the door...
 * Blue Ocean: *from his own bedroom* Well, open it!
 * Red Fork: Why don't you do it?
 * Blue Ocean: Because I need to sleep. If I don't get enough sleep, I 'll need to drink a liter of coffee to wake up tomorrow.
 * Red Fork: You should think of that when you stay on the internet up to 3:00 AM.
 * Blue Ocean: That's a different story! Just go!
 * Red Fork: Ok, let's play Rock, Paper, Scissors to choose.
 * Blue Ocean: We're in different rooms, how will we play that?
 * Red Fork: You tell me what you chose, and I'll tell you what I chose. The one who loses goes to the door.
 * Blue Ocean: Got it.
 * Both: Rock, Paper, Scissors, one, two, three!
 * Red Fork: What did you choose?
 * Blue Ocean: Scissors.
 * Red Fork: Too bad, I chose rock. I win.
 * Blue Ocean: No fair! I always lose when we do this!
 * Blue Ocean: *with his nightcap still on his head* Yes?
 * Pink Angel: It's me, Pink Angel! One of the Retro Rebels. Starcade sent me to get reinforcements. Kyoji has been kidnapped.
 * Blue Ocean: Kidnapped!? We'll be on our way.
 * Blue Ocean: Red Fork!!! Wake up!!!
 * Red Fork: *comes* What happened? Did you have to yell that much?
 * Blue Ocean: I thought you'd be asleep again, and I thought you might not hear me.
 * Red Fork: Don't worry, I'm sure thousands of people who were asleep heard you and woke up.
 * Blue Ocean: Oops. I should've thought it through.
 * Red Fork: So, what's going on?
 * Blue Ocean: Kyoji was kidnapped!
 * Red Fork: Kidnapped!? And why are we wasting time here with jokes? We've got to tell the others!
 * Blue Ocean: Let's go!
 * Red Fork: Pink Angel, we'll go for the rest of the Red Crystals. You go tell the rest of the gang. We'll meet with you again once we've got the Red Crystals together.
 * Pink Angel: Sounds like a plan. I'll get them!
 * Bonk Choy: Who is that? *opens the door while yawning* 
 * Pink Angel: Your breath! It reeks, too bad I don't have an arrow to get rid of that.
 * Bonk Choy: Oh, so it's you, bow boy.
 * Pink Angel: I am not a boy! Nor am I a girl! I don't have a gender!
 * Bonk Choy: Why?
 * Pink Angel: In short, angels in my game like me are generic characters without much identity. That's why the creators couldn't decide on my gender.
 * Bonk Choy: So what's up?
 * Pink Angel: Gather your friends. Kyoji is kidnapped, and the other Retro Rebels are at the scene.
 * Bonk Choy: Kyoji is kidnapped?! *runs to get Green Shadow and Re-Peat Moss*
 * Green Shadow: I heard the emergency message from Bonk Choy. What do we do?
 * Pink Angel: Go to Kyoji's house. The others will show up there shortly.
 * Green Shadow: Got it.
 * Jelo: *opens the door* Oh, hello Pink Angel. What are you doing here?
 * Pink Angel: It's about Kyoji. He's kidnapped! Starcade sent me here to get help. She and the other Retro Rebels are trying to take down the kidnapper.
 * Jelo: That's terrible. Well, I'd be glad to help find a missing ally.
 * Pink Angel: We have to tell the others. Star, Marco, Janna, Jackie and the other elemental ninjas! If Kyoji's depending on us, we'll need all the help we can get.
 * Jelo: Good idea, let's go. How about Star and Marco first?
 * Pink Angel: Yeah. Let's get their help!
 * Jelo: *knocks on the door* Hello?
 * Marco: *opens the door* Hey Gerald! Hey Pink Angel!
 * Pink Angel: Hey Marco!
 * Marco: What are you guys doing here?
 * Pink Angel: We have breaking news...literally. Someone broke into Kyoji's house...and...*continues explaining the plight to Marco*
 * Marco: Yikes. Hey Star?
 * Star: Yes, Marco?
 * Marco: It's a long story. Someone kidnapped Kyoji in the middle of the night!
 * Star: Kyoji's been kidnapped? Who's behind that?
 * Pink Angel: Some muscular ninja. We don't know who that is. I was thinking he might be a mercenary sent out by someone, but then again, anyone can be wrong.
 * Jelo: Who's next, Pink?
 * Pink Angel: The Elemental YTers. Jaiden, CypherDen and Rebecca.
 * Star: Hey, I recieved a text from Janna. She's at Kyoji's house!
 * Pink Angel: What happened to the other Retro Rebels?
 * Green Shadow: It appears that the kidnapper must have taken them all out at once.
 * Bonk Choy: Now that's brutal!
 * Jelo: Yikes.
 * Red Fork: Here we are.
 * Blast: Who kidnapped Kyoji? And why are the other Retro Rebels knocked out like that?
 * Lemon Glass: It looks like whoever kidnapped Kyoji must be dangerous.
 * Red Fork: There's got to be a way to find the kidnapper and save Kyoji.
 * Bonk Choy: Someone kidnapped him with ease?
 * Green Shadow: Yikes.
 * Pink Angel: *attempts to wake up the other Retro Rebels* Guys, I need a hand. I can't wake all of them up alone.
 * Blue Ocean: I can wake them up easily.
 * Red Fork: Blue Ocean...
 * Blue Ocean: *with a megaphone* WAKE UP!!!!
 * Red Fork: *covering his ears* Ok, if anyone in Echo Creek didn't hear you last time, they surely heard you this time.
 * Hot Air: Could you wake us up less noisily?
 * Test Subject Blue: What...what happened? Where's that muscular guy?
 * Green Shadow: He knocked you out. Now he's gone.
 * Test Subject Blue: And...hey, the other Retro Rebels are fine!
 * Test Subject Blue: Yikes, she's still unconscious!
 * Jelo: Oh no...

While Licorice was talking, the Elemental YT Trio arrives in a cloud of water, snow and thunder.
 * Blue Ocean: Starcade? Are you ok?
 * Red Fork: So, you guys don't know where the kidnapper went?
 * Starcade: Yeah...I guess...
 * Licorice: *to Red Fork* Nah, everything was a blur. He was too fast and too strong...
 * Star: *witnessing all of that* Cool...


 * Blast: Hi Jaiden!


 * Licorice: You guys startled me!
 * Starcade: It's the Elemental YTers!
 * Green Shadow: You guys here to help us look for Kyoji?
 * Rebecca: Yeah, we recieved a text from Green Shadow.
 * Red Fork: Good to see you here. We'll need all the help we can get if we want to rescue Kyoji.

A masked muscular figure who appears to be an electric ninja shows up. Warlock opens a portal to Dark Takeshi's lair.
 * Green Shadow: *to Rebecca* I see that you've read my text. Anyway, none of us know who's behind Kyoji's disappearance.
 * ???: I do.
 * Green Shadow: Who said that?
 * ???: I've heard that someone kidnapped Kyoji and I witnessed everything. You must be his friends, the Locked Room gang.
 * Jackie: Yes, and who are you?
 * ???: The name's Takeshi. The Electric Sensei has dubbed me as the Shocking Shadow. I'm one of Kyoji's classmates and old friends at regular ninja school when we were kids.
 * CypherDen: Cool, you're an Electric Ninja?
 * Takeshi lines
 * Green Shadow: Wait, so you're the Takeshi Kyoji mentioned in his birthday wish?
 * Takeshi: Yes.
 * Blast: My wish came true!
 * Alice: What are you talking about?
 * Blast: Back at Kyoji's birthday, I said that I would like to meet him personally.
 * Red Fork: Takeshi, did you come to help us save Kyoji?
 * Takeshi: If my old friend needs help, I'll be willing to help.
 * Green Shadow: How did you come all the way here?
 * Takeshi: It's a long story, but to summarize it...*notices Starcade pointing her laser pistol at him* Huh?
 * Starcade: Stop pretending to be friendly, you kidnapper! We Retro Rebels have seen you kidnap Kyoji with our own eyes!
 * Test Subject Blue: Yeah!
 * Viking: Stand down, you blockhead!
 * Takeshi: You must be confused. It wasn't me, it was my evil version...Dark Takeshi.
 * Blast: You've got an evil version too? Wow, at this point, everyone's going to have an evil version soon.
 * Jelo: I agree. Yesterday, Milo even said that the concept was pretty overused.
 * Alice: Why is it always an evil counterpart!?
 * Blue Ocean: Ok, calm down Retro Rebels. You heard him, it was his evil counterpart.
 * Starcade: No way, we saw the resemblance. We believe it's Takeshi's doing.
 * Hot Air: If you're not gonna believe us, then so be it!
 * Green Shadow: Well, Starcade might have a point about all this, but we can't judge by appearance. We'll just have to watch him closely.
 * Takeshi: Allow me to take you to Dark Takeshi's lair.
 * Red Fork: Let's go with Takeshi. To be honest, what Takeshi says makes sense. We've faced several evil counterparts before.
 * Bonk Choy: Yeah, like Dark Jaiden, Opposite Blast, Dark Green Shadow, Fake Fork...
 * Green Shadow: Let's go, guys!
 * Warlock: Hold on, where are we going?
 * Takeshi: To Dark Takeshi's lair.
 * Warlock: It's pretty far. How about I open a portal for us to go through.

The gang enters the portal, and arrives outside Dark Takeshi's lair, which oddly looks very familiar. ''The gang enters Dark Takeshi's lair. To their surprise, a cage made out of mixed diamond and obsidian traps everyone except Takeshi.'' Takeshi reappears in front of the trapped gang members with...Akasha?
 * Rebecca: Gang, let's go save our friend.
 * Red Fork: Let's go to save our friend and defeat yet another evil counterpart!
 * Takeshi: Dark Takeshi lives in here. I have a bad feeling that he might be luring me into a trap by kidnapping Kyoji.
 * Green Shadow: Well, that's what usually happens when we go to new places.
 * Bonk Choy: Hey, wait, I have a feeling that we've came here before!
 * Star: What is it?
 * Bonk Choy: This feels a little similar to the throne room of the deceased Shogo the Warlord Kyoji took me to once!
 * Takeshi: Well, Dark Takeshi does have a similar taste of decoration to Shogo the Warlord.
 * Blue Ocean: Well, that explains a lot. *looking at the decoration*
 * Jelo: But, what if this is actually the lair of this Shogo guy? And by the way, who's Shogo?
 * Green Shadow: Haven't you forgotten he's the villain we defeated when we met Kyoji for the first time ever? Also, he's Akasha's father.
 * Blue Ocean: Well, it's been a long time since that happened. I almost forgot about Shogo myself.
 * Red Fork: Anyway... we must get going. We've got to find Kyoji.
 * Starcade: What is all this?
 * Bonk Choy: We're trapped!
 * Blue Ocean: No way!
 * Red Fork: What's going on?
 * ???: Excellent work, Takeshi. Now we're one step closer to getting our desired revenge.
 * Green Shadow: Wait a minute, that voice is...familiar.
 * Starcade: You again?!
 * Blue Ocean: Akasha!?
 * Tommy: Wait, what!?
 * Akasha: So nice of you to drop by. I can't believe you actually fell for the trap!
 * Green Shadow: What about Dark Takeshi? Where is he?
 * Akasha: You mean that non-existent being?
 * Green Shadow: Wait what?
 * Akasha: Allow me to summarize it for you: Dark Takeshi never existed!
 * Blast: What!?
 * Alice: That means that... Takeshi, you lied to us?
 * Takeshi: I'm sorry, but it's Akasha's orders. I mean, she's my older sister.
 * Green Shadow: So it turns out Starcade and the Retro Rebels were right about you! You were Kyoji's kidnapper!
 * Blue Ocean: You and Akasha are siblings!?
 * Lemon Glass: What a turn of events.


 * CypherDen: I've had enough of getting tricked!


 * Red Fork: Well, you're not going to get away with this! Your evil plan will be stopped, Akasha!

Flashback to 8 hours ago, when Kyoji was making his birthday wish back at the birthday party. While the gang were busy celebrating Kyoji's birthday, Akasha was watching from a window the whole time. ''Akasha flew to look for Takeshi, who was training on his own in the Northern mountains. She found him with ease with the help of her shadow arts.'' ''Akasha and Takeshi split up to do their respective roles. The flashback ends.'' Akasha levitates Kyoji, who had been strapped with chains onto a metal pole made of the same material as the cage that trapped the gang.
 * Akasha: Shut up and let me talk! *roasts Red Fork literally* Now, you must be wondering how this all happened, and how I brought Takeshi here. Before I reveal Kyoji to you, let me tell you how it all happened.
 * Starcade: What's your birthday wish, Kyoji?
 * Kyoji: Well, even though I wish for the best for all of my friends, there is one special wish in particular that I have. It's for someone who's not here.
 * Blast: Captain Red Shell?
 * Kyoji: No, although I do wish the best for him too.
 * Starcade: The gemstones?
 * Kyoji: Not them either. That someone is an old friend of mine and a classmate of mine in regular ninja school when we were kids. I haven't heard of him in years. The last I heard of him, he's an electric ninja training by himself in the mountains. He fled when he was told to help his father conquer Japan, and even though his father sent his forces after him, he was never found. His name is Takeshi.
 * CypherDen: Electric ninja? I've never heard of him.
 * Kyoji: That's because he started training earlier than you think.
 * Alice: Takeshi?
 * Blast: So, what's your wish for him?
 * Kyoji: I wish for the best of him, I hope he's still alive after all his years of solitary training in the wild. I also wish that he will be able to return someday.
 * Akasha: So, he wants to see my younger brother again? I know just the present I'll give to him! His date of birth shall be his date of death!
 * Takeshi: *smashing rocks with his electric hammer* 98...99...100!!! What a morning warm-up! What should I do next?
 * Akasha: *makes her landing in front of Takeshi* Takeshi?
 * Takeshi: Is that you, Akasha?
 * Akasha: Of course it is, ya dope! It's been a long time.
 * Takeshi: It sure is. How did you find me here?
 * Akasha: I could locate anyone easily with my Shadow Gauntlets. In short, I've mastered the forbidden shadow arts.
 * Takeshi: How did you do that?
 * Akasha: You wouldn't want to know. Anyway, I have news.
 * Takeshi: You mean it's finally time to come home? Our father isn't sending out forces to find me anymore?
 * Akasha: Yes, but there's worse. About our father...he's dead.
 * Takeshi: Wait, what?
 * Akasha: You can blame Kyoji, he was the one who killed our father!
 * Takeshi: Kyoji? No, I thought you were a couple!
 * Akasha: We broke up, now we're even. I came to look for you as I need you to help me dish out revenge on Kyoji.
 * Takeshi: Why would someone like Kyoji do that?
 * Akasha: For power, of course! He killed our father to take over his position as warlord!
 * Takeshi: Is that really true? I highly doubt Kyoji would do that. As his old friend, I know he wouldn't go power-hungry.
 * Akasha: That's just what he wants you to think! He's a madman hiding in a mask, hiding the fact that he only desires power! Now, you wouldn't believe that I'm lying, would you? Especially since I'm your older sister?
 * Takeshi: If you're telling the truth...Kyoji's a power-hungry dictator?
 * Akasha: Yes, he is. That's why I broke up with him.
 * Takeshi: That makes sense. Alright, I'll do it, if it makes our family happy again.
 * Akasha: Great! So here's the plan, you go kidnap Kyoji from his home and bring him to my father's throne room, before pretending to be friendly to his friends, the Locked Room gang.
 * Takeshi: Locked Room gang? I've heard of them before...
 * Akasha: Excellent. And I'll prepare a surprise for them once they show up!
 * Takeshi: If this will make our family prosperous again, I'll do anything!
 * Akasha: Good. Meet me at our father's throne room once you're done. And don't forget Kyoji!
 * Akasha: We've got you good with that one, did we?
 * Jelo: Of course....Luan!
 * CypherDen: But Akasha isn't Luan.
 * Jelo: That's a nickname I thought of for people who do dangerous pranks on April Fools'.
 * Bonk Choy: Wow.
 * Akasha: Anyway, now that you know the truth, here's the moment you've been waiting for!
 * Starcade: Kyoji!
 * Blue Ocean: Leave him alone!
 * Red Fork: You won't get away with this!
 * Akasha: Oh, I already have.
 * Marco: Alright, does anyone have something to break this cage?
 * Star: I don't.
 * Blast: *tries to break it open with his super strength* It's no use, the cage won't open. It's too strong.

Takeshi turns around to break the cage, freeing the gang from captivity. Meanwhile, Akasha is angry about Takeshi's betrayal and levitates him in the air. Akasha raises Kyoji's sword and shoots a powerful fire beam from it at Takeshi, roasting him into ashes. Akasha shoots a powerful flaming shockwave that knocks back and burns everyone.
 * Akasha: I actually brought you here for a show I'd like to present to you. It's called: The Execution.
 * Starcade: Execution?!
 * Akasha: And now to you, my younger brother, Takeshi. I have one more task for you.
 * Takeshi: What's that?
 * Akasha: Simple. I want you to kill Kyoji.
 * Takeshi: Wait what? You didn't say anything about killing Kyoji, did you?
 * Akasha: I've said it now. You wouldn't disobey your older sister, would you? Now kill him!
 * Rebecca: Any way we can get out?
 * Green Shadow: Not really.
 * Test Subject Blue: Hey wait, Kyoji's chains are made of the same material! If we find anything useful that can break this cage open, we can use that to free Kyoji too!
 * Akasha: *takes out Kyoji's sword* See this?
 * Bonk Choy: What is she doing with his sword?
 * CypherDen: Probably something bad.
 * Akasha: I salvaged this out of Kyoji's inventory when Takeshi captured him. I studied Kyoji's sword ever since I knew about it, and I realised that his sword could change its way of attacking depending on who possesses it! With this, I can cast deadly flaming attacks that can burn almost about anything! *to Takeshi* Now then, Takeshi, if you do not do as I say, I will have no choice but to use this sword against you.
 * Green Shadow: Don't do it, Takeshi!
 * Jelo: Look man, she's using you!
 * Takeshi: I don't know...she's my sister...
 * Akasha: Don't you want to take revenge on Kyoji for killing our father? Restore the glory of our family? Make our family great again? Make our father proud?
 * Takeshi: *thinks for a while before standing up to Akasha* No, that's just what YOU want! You're just like our father, power-hungry and manipulative! I only fled from the country because I didn't want to be part of his evil scheme to conquer Japan! And you, on the other hand, manipulated me into kidnapping Kyoji and luring the Locked Room gang in here so that everyone can see the death of Kyoji happening! Is that right?
 * Akasha: Excuse me?! You're saying these words to your older sibling? How disrespectful!
 * Takeshi: Said the person who doesn't even act like a proper older sibling!
 * Blast: Roasted! Oooooh!
 * Tommy: *plays an air horn* Oooh!
 * Bonk Choy: *gasps* Ooooooh, burn! HAHAHA! Get it?
 * Star: Of course I do!
 * CypherDen: Glad to see Takeshi stand up. Although I have a feeling in my gut...
 * Takeshi: *to Akasha* You're not taking revenge on anyone again!
 * Bonk Choy: We're free! We're free!
 * Red Fork: Now let's stop Akasha and her evil scheme.
 * Akasha: So, do you think you can betray me and get away just like that? You're wrong! Let me tell you something, this is why you don't disrespect your older sister!
 * Kyoji: Takeshi, no!!!
 * Akasha: Look who's roasted now! Well, he might have freed you fools, but none of you have what it takes to defeat me! MUAHAHAHAHAHA!!!
 * Red Fork: This is going to be fun.
 * Blue Ocean: *creates a forcefield* Everyone, attack her!
 * CypherDen: Shockwave Tsunami! *creates a wave of lightning that zaps Akasha*
 * Blast: Stop and freeze! *shoots a powerful ice blast at Akasha*

Akasha roasts Blue Ocean's forcefield, destroying it in just under five seconds. ''Meanwhile, Kyoji is still strapped to his chains high up on the metal pole. As he is gagged, he is unable to speak to Tommy, who is below with Takeshi's electric hammer.'' ''Tommy uses Takeshi's electric hammer to free Kyoji. Kyoji then takes off the handkerchief that has been holding him back from speech.'' Kyoji and Tommy rush back to the battle scene, where Akasha is winning against the gang.
 * Akasha: *blasts a flurry of fireballs at everyone* You cannot win!
 * Green Shadow: *looks at Takeshi's dropped electric hammer* We'll need someone to use Takeshi's hammer to free Kyoji from his chains! Meanwhile, the rest of us will tackle Akasha. Who's gonna free Kyoji?
 * CypherDen: I'm an electric ninja, but I'm not really strong enough.
 * Tommy: Me! Let me do it! I'll free him with that hammer!
 * Blast: Are you sure?
 * Tommy: Come on, I never do anything important. I think it's time I try to be a helpful member of the gang.
 * Green Shadow: Alright, be careful. *gives the hammer to Tommy* Now go make Takeshi and Kyoji proud!
 * Rebecca: Go, Tommy!
 * Tommy: For Kyoji and Takeshi! *goes to free Kyoji*
 * Green Shadow: Now that we have that settled, we can go back to...*gets blasted by a fireball*
 * Akasha: Think fast! *blasts a bigger flurry of fireballs at everyone*
 * Blue Ocean: *protects everyone with a forcefield* Wanna try some more?
 * Akasha: A forcefield? Seriously? I can break one in a matter of seconds!
 * Akasha: Let's continue the fun, shall we? *blasts strong gusts of fire at the gang*
 * Test Subject Blue: I hate to say it, but she's much stronger than we thought!
 * Blue Ocean: I'll keep the forcefield as long as I can. You guys do something to stop her!
 * Tommy: Don't worry Kyoji, I'll get you out of there!
 * Kyoji: Thanks for saving me up there. Akasha has really gone too far this time.
 * Tommy: Wow, I actually did it! Now we've got to stop Akasha.
 * Kyoji: So it's my sword she's holding! That explains why she's winning. We need to get that sword out of her hands!
 * Blast: Hey, that's cheating, Akasha!
 * Akasha: I don't care.
 * Rebecca: I just happen to have an idea!
 * Alice: What is it?
 * Rebecca: Hydromania! *summons a giant cyclone of water at Akasha*

Kyoji attempts to grab his sword back, but Akasha shoves him out of the way and grabs it again. ''While Akasha is confused by Bonk Choy's words, Kyoji casts ice and freezes her in place. He then quickly punches her before grabbing his sword back.'' Kyoji casts a powerful freezing shockwave that completely freezes Akasha. ''Kyoji runs to Takeshi and plants his sword next to him. He then chants out a resurrection incantation, which causes his sword's energy to be transferred to Takeshi's heart and be broken into many fragments.  Takeshi jolts himself up awake at the moment the transfer of the energy from Kyoji's sword to his heart is complete.'' (W.I.P.)
 * Akasha: *recovers from the water attack and notices Kyoji* You?! Just when I thought I could get rid of you...ugh!
 * Kyoji: It's over, Akasha. I've always thought you were bad enough, but I've never thought that even you could be this bad!
 * Akasha: Oh yeah, what makes you think so?
 * Kyoji: You killed Takeshi! He was my friend!
 * Akasha: Him? Yeah, I had to teach him a lesson for disobeying me. After all, I'm his older sister.
 * Kyoji: Whatever. It's time we end this once and for all!
 * Rebecca: Hey Akasha! Ya forgot something! *to Kyoji* Get your sword from the cyclone of water before Akasha does.
 * Kyoji: Got it!
 * Akasha: You're too slow!
 * Kyoji: Hmm...looks like getting my sword back isn't going to be easy. Let's do this.
 * Akasha: So, any last words before I make my final roast?
 * Bonk Choy: I do! Peanut butter jelly time!
 * Akasha: What?!
 * Akasha: You'll regret doing that!!!
 * Jaiden: No, we won't!
 * Akasha: Do you know something? You could have made life easier for the both of us if only you have used your sword to bring my father back to life! None of this would've happened if it wasn't for your selfish acts! So...*charges up even more fire* Do you have any last words before you die? I want to hear them from you, not from that thick-headed vegetable!
 * Bonk Choy: Hey!
 * Kyoji: You look hungry.
 * Akasha: What?
 * Kyoji: Here! Have a taste of my sword!
 * Akasha: NOOOOOOOO...*freezes completely before she can complete her speech*
 * Starcade: Good riddance!
 * Marco: Woohoo!
 * Jackie: That was amazing.
 * Kyoji: We have to be quick though. Akasha won't be frozen for long, she's a fire ninja after all.
 * Green Shadow: Wait, did Akasha say that your sword has the ability to revive a dead body?
 * Kyoji: *sighs* I can't believe I'm saying this, but Akasha is right. My sword does have that ability, but using it will break the sword in the process.
 * Bonk Choy: Well, there's Takeshi, should we revive him?
 * Janna: I think so, but that will destroy Kyoji's sword.
 * Jelo: I could probably give him my katana! I already have that diamond sword I got during that time we were in the Happy Kingdom.
 * Bonk Choy: Why didn't you revive Shogo the Warlord? Akasha wouldn't even need to bother us that way.
 * Kyoji: I know, but if I do that, the world will be wiped out in a matter of minutes. It's better this way.
 * Green Shadow: We don't have much time! *points to the ice melting* Akasha is about to thaw!
 * Kyoji: Right. Let's do it.
 * Kyoji: Did...did it work?
 * Janna: I think so.
 * Bonk Choy: Poor Takeshi.
 * Takeshi: *takes deep breaths* Huh? Is this heaven?
 * Kyoji: No, I brought back to life. You don't deserve death.
 * Takeshi: Really? Thank you, Kyoji. By the way, where's your sword?
 * Kyoji: About that...it's destroyed in the process.
 * Jelo: Hey Kyoji?

Trivia

 * Kyoji's birthday is revealed to be on April Fools' Day.
 * It is revealed that Pink Angel is genderless because angels in its game are generic characters, and since they do not have much identity, the creators could not determine Pink Angel's gender.
