Story
''It was a stormy night. At Dr. Zack's base, Electra was helping the doctor to make plans to defeat Blast.'' Suddenly, both of them hear a short melody played with a flute. ''Dr.Zack looks towards the main entrance, and it's his old lab assistant. A young adult, with black hair, a red shirt andblue pants, wearing a gray scarf that waves with the wind of the storm.'' Dr. Zack thinks for a moment, and thinks of an idea to take advantage of this new situation. The next morning, the Locked Room gang are at Red Fork's house, as they were telling Red Fork and Blue Ocean about their battle against Re-Peat Boss's hybrids. Suddenly, the gang receives several distress signals, from different places in Echo Creek, all at the same time. The gang goes outside, and finds Opposite Blast, Electra, Blade and Scorch destroying Echo Creek. Red Ruby throws dynamite sticks at Opposite Blast, Electra, Blade and Scorch. Scorch shoots a fire blast at the dynamite sticks, making them blow up before they get even close to the four villains. ''Blade throws a cutting blade at the gang. But this time, the blade looks different. It's black, and moves in random directions instead of directly straight. It glows with dark colors. It's a shadow blade!'' ''The plants duck, along with Star, Marco and Gerald. Jaiden jumps to avoid the blade.'' ''Amelia Amethyst activates a forcefield and protects the gang from the shadow blade. The shadow blade bounces off the forcefield, and Blade catches it.'' Electra starts concentrating, and suddenly, trees and other large objects are being levitated, and electrified at the same time. The trees, cars and other large objects that Electra is levitating, are then tossed towards the gang, breaking through the forcefield, and causing massive damage to them. Green Shadow attempts to catch the objects that Electra levitates towards the gang, but doing so electrifies her each time, making her weaker and weaker. Scorch, who was incapable of flying before, now flies towards the gang and quickly shoots powerful fire blasts at them, while Blade shoots more shadow blades at the gang. ''Kyoji counters the projectiles with ice blasts from his Elementia. However, Electra levitates even more objects, electifying them before tossing them at the gang. Finally, Opposite Blast teleports next to the gang, and with a powerful shadow wave, knocks out most of the gang, leaving few members still conscious, but weak.''
 * Dr. Zack: This might be more difficult than I had expected.
 * Electra: Well, since Blast joined the Locked Room Gang, everything is much harder. Instead of fighting a couple of kids,now we're fighting an entire gang of being of many species that won't let us kill Blast in peace.
 * Dr. Zack: We need a new plan. Re-Peat Boss's help was useless to our cause. If only my old lab assistant was back. He was much better than any of these silly villains there are nowadays.
 * Electra: But who is this old lab assistant you talk about?
 * Electra: What's that?
 * Dr. Zack: I remember that melody! It's him!
 * Dr. Zack: Ace? You finally decided to return?
 * Ace: Yes, I did.
 * Dr. Zack: Are you going to help me with my mission?
 * Ace: Listen doc, it was nice to work with you last time, but I'm not going to help you create any more living beings. Creating living beings as if they were just machines or weapons, it's just not right.
 * Dr. Zack: Oh, that. Well, if you're not going to help me, then what did you come here for?
 * Ace: You didn't let me finish. I come to offer you a deal.
 * Dr. Zack: A deal, you say?
 * Ace: Yes. I'll help you out front in the battlefield, and leading your minions. But in return, you must help me with my mission. I imagine you already know what it is.
 * Dr. Zack: Deal. It's good to have you back, Ace. Now listen carefully, we're going to kill two birds with one stone. Because the answer to our problems, is the Locked Room Gang. If we get rid of them, I'll be able to achieve my goals, and you'll be able to find who you are looking for.
 * Ace: The Locked Room Gang? I've heard of them. If clearing them out of the picture is what I need to do, then that's what will happen.
 * Electra: I don't like this.
 * Ace: In that case, you should start getting used to the new circumstances, Electra.
 * Electra: Wha!? How did you know my name?
 * Ace: I know much more than that. Now why don't you go to sleep? You'll need some good sleep this night.Tomorrow will be a big day.
 * Electra: Ok... *leaves to her bedroom, reluctantly*
 * Ace: Locked Room Gang, ready or not, here I come.
 * Green Shadow: So, Red Fork and Blue Ocean, do you guys know about what happened while you two were busy?
 * Blue Ocean: Yup, I heard all about it in Facebook and Twitter!
 * Red Fork: How did you get all that information so quickly?
 * Blue Ocean: That's what happens when you've got lots of contacts in Facebook in Twitter. They tell you pretty much everything that happens in the city.
 * Jelo: Wow, I've missed a lot of new events. Guess the gang did go on well without me, and I'm kinda proud of that.
 * Marco: Man, it's good to be back here on Earth.
 * Red Fork: Well, I do recall hearing about these new hybrids.
 * Richard: Wait, which hybrids?
 * Jelo: Well, according to a friend's blog, there's a new bunch of hybrids created by Re-Peat Boss. They were created originally to destroy us, but they changed sides and became good. I-I think.
 * Blast: The good thing, is that at the end, they joined Ink Splash and formed Team Hybrid! Now Ink Splash has many hybrid friends to live with.
 * Red Fork: That's great!
 * Star: It's nice of Ink Splash to finally have real friends.
 * Green Shadow: We're just glad that she doesn't have to spend the rest of her life living in the dark alleys of Echo Creek, now that she has a group of friends that she might call "a real family".
 * Starcade: But I can't shake off the bad feeling about what might happen next. Dr Zack mentioned something about an old lab assistant being able to take care of this madness before he left.
 * Kyoji: I don't like the sound of that either.
 * Red Ruby: Who cares? That good-for-nothing doctor has no idea what he's up against!
 * Diana Diamond: I don't know, Red. This might be an entirely new type of threat altogether.
 * Blast: I've known Dr. Zack for a good while, and he's not the kind of guy with empty threats. If he says something, you can be sure he really means it.
 * Red Fork: Not like Bright Spark who always overestimates his own machines. *laughs*
 * Alice: But if what Dr. Zack said is true, then next time we encounter him, things will be much more difficult.
 * Blue Ocean: Don't worry. We just have to stay alert. We can do our everyday activities. The only thing we need is to stay alert in case anything happens.
 * Kyoji: That's true. Dr Zack and his allies had put up a good fight back at the time when Fake Fork made his rampage.
 * Red Ruby: I'm sure it'll be fine. What's the worst that can happen?
 * Pealy: I dunno about this, Red...
 * Jaiden: Pealy, do you really have to be pessimistic about life? You've got a huge life to live, a great big world to explore, a lot of friends, and...well, that's it. So stop worrying, and enjoy life!
 * Jelo: Yeah! Besides, the chance of villains randomly attacking are lo-
 * Jelo: Uh-oh, I stand corrected. Distress signal.
 * Blue Ocean: Wha!?
 * Richard: Okay, this doesn't sound good.
 * Kernely: This seems dangerous...
 * Red Fork: That's the worst that could happen.
 * Marco: I agree. But, we need to stay strong.
 * Gary Garnet: What's happening?
 * Green Shadow: It might be another attack on Echo Creek. Let's go see what's happening.
 * Red Fork: Let's do it.
 * Jaiden: Not again....Whatever, we're still gonna stop you!
 * Blast: Oh, come on! Don't you ever get tired of doing the same thing over and over again?
 * Opposite Blast: There they are!
 * Scorch: Thinks are really cooking now! Let's set them on fire!
 * Green Shadow: You four again?
 * Starcade: I thought we've defeated you countless times? Why do you try again?
 * Red Ruby: Leave them to me!
 * Scorch: Time to burn the trash!
 * Blade: Well, time to cut them down to size! Cutting it up!
 * Blast: That thing is crazy! *dodges the shadow blade*
 * Blue Ocean: It's not following the laws of physics! It just moves around wherever it wants! *ducks* 
 * Star: Whoa! That was really close!
 * Starcade: Shadow blades? Did Akasha teach him shadow arts or something?
 * Kyoji: I don't think so. Akasha isn't someone who will reveal her secrets.
 * Starcade: Either way, I'm still confused by all of this.
 * Amelia Amethyst: Don't worry, everyone! Just take cover!
 * Blade: That's not going to work!
 * Electra: Ready to get shocked?
 * Blue Ocean: Wha!? How is she doing that!?
 * Electra: I told you this would be shocking!
 * Richard: OWWWWW!
 * Marco: Oh my gosh! Richard are you okay?
 * Sean Sapphire: What the?
 * Diana Diamond: Okay, the craziness of this situation has gone on another scale.
 * Kyoji: Levitation is another shadow art! I'm starting to think that Starcade is right but to a small extent. Someone might have taught them shadow arts, but it definitely doesn't sound like Akasha's doing.
 * Green Shadow: We still have to fight back!
 * Electra: Shocking, isn't it!
 * Scorch: Time to turn the heat up!
 * Blast: What's going on!?
 * Alice: Since when can Scorch fly!?
 * Kyoji: That is definitely yet another shadow art. But we're not giving up easily even if it looks like that the odds are against us!
 * Blovy: *weakly* Ugh...
 * Torchy: Oh gosh...
 * Captain Red Shell: These villains are more powerful now. We might need to leave and think of another strategy.
 * Starcade: Wait a minute, they're using shadow attacks, right? Why don't we fight back with light?
 * Green Shadow: Great idea! Red Fork and Blue Ocean, why don't you try using your magic to cast light on those four foes?

They look around, and notice that Green Shadow, Starcade, Star, Torchy, Blovy and Captain Red Shell are the only members of the gang that are still not knocked out. Captain Red Shell and Green Shadow take their friends to safety, while Starcade stays to fight the four powerful villains. ''Meanwhile, Captain Red Shell, Star and Green Shadow take their friends to a safe place, where they wait for them to wake up. After a while, some of them start reacting. Red Fork, Kyoji, Blast, Jelo, Richard and a couple of gemstones wake up.'' ''Suddenly, someone walks in. It's Boulder, and he brings Starcade with him. She's still conscious, but she's really weak.'' ''Blue Ocean uses his magic to teleport the gang to his secret laboratory, which is located below the house where he lives with Red Fork. The gang is surprised to see so many machines, gadgets and wacky objects in Blue Ocean's lab.'' Alice checks Marco to see if he is ok. The gang goes to stop the four villains. The gang first goes to the Stop & Slurp shop, where Blade is destroying the place with shadow blades. Red Fork and Blue Ocean use their magic horns to create light, and render Blade's shadow powers useless. Blade shoots several cutting blades at the gang. ''The gang dodges the cutting blades. Kyoji leaps at Blade and slashes at him with the Elementia.'' Blade falls to the ground, defeated. ''The gang goes to stop the next villain. Meanwhile, at Alice's house, she and Tommy are taking care of Marco.'' ''Suddenly, a short flute melody is heard, and then, Alice and Tommy see someone appear in the room. It's Ace!'' ''Tommy does as he is told, and Ace shoots a shadow blast at Alice. Alice grabs Tommy, and jumps away from the shadow blast.'' ''Alice takes out her plasma cannon, and shoots at Ace. However, Ace pulls out a red and gray shield, and uses it to deflect Alice's shot.'' ''Ace shoots another shadow blast, and hits Alice. Tommy grabs a yo-yo, and uses it to attack Ace. However, Ace teleports behind Tommy, and kicks him into a wall.'' ''Alice grabs her plasma cannon, and shoots another plasma bolt at Ace. Ace deflects the plasma bolt with his shield, and then shoots a shadow blast back at Alice. She is hit again, and falls to the floor, unable to continue.'' ''Alice shakes in fear, and Tommy, still dizzy, looks in horror. However, instead of shooting at Alice, Ace turns off the lights of the room.'' Ace leaves the room by teleporting away, leaving Alice and Tommy weakened and hurt. Meanwhile, the gang are still on the way to fighting the next villain. Suddenly, the gang gets a call from Alice. As Starcade and Kyoji leave to take Marco, Alice and Tommy to Eitbit, the rest of the gang heads to the coast, where Scorch is burning the ships that are at the dock. Red Ruby throws a dynamite stick at Scorch while he's facing away from the gang. S''corch shoots flames in all directions, accidentally making the dynamite stick blow up before it hits him. The explosion surprises him, and makes him look back, noticing the gang.'' Scorch teleports to the gang, and shoots powerful flames at them, before teleporting back to his previous position. Both unicorns create light with their magic, and render Scorch's shadow powers useless. Sean Sapphire creates a huge wave from the ocean, which splashes at Scorch, drowning Scorch and dousing his flames. Scorch escapes. ''The gang goes to the park to stop Electra. Meanwhile, at Eitbit...'' ''Suddenly, a flute melody is heard. Alice and Tommy recognize it.'' Effectively, Ace appears in the room. ''Alice and Tommy run to hide. Kyoji turns around to Ace and blasts ice at him with the Elementia. Ace blocks the ice blasts with his Ace Shield.'' ''Ace shoots a couple of shadow blasts at Kyoji and Starcade, before using super speed to move quickly around the room. Kyoji steps up to protect Starcade and himself from Ace's attacks.'' ''Starcade draws her dual laser pistols and fires them at Ace, while staying behind Kyoji. Ace uses super speed to dodge the shots from Starcade's dual laser pistols. Then he teleports behind Kyoji and Starcade, and delivers quick yet powerful hits on both of them, and teleports away from them before they can react. Then, he charges a powerful shadow blast.'' ''Ace then shoots the powerful shadow blast at Kyoji and Starcade. Kyoji and Starcade dodge the shadow blast.'' Kyoji steps up to Ace and points the Elementia at him. ''Ace shoots several show blasts at Kyoji, and the speed of the shadow blasts gradually increases, to the point where Kyoji only has fractions of a second to dodge each shadow blast. Kyoji reacts by creating an ice shield around himself, while trying to fight back with his own ice blasts.'' ''Ace uses super strength abilities, and lifts some of the furniture in the room, and tosses it towards Kyoji. He uses his Ace Shield to block the ice blasts from Kyoji.'' ''Kyoji dodges the furniture thrown at him. Starcade then shoots her charged attack at Ace from behind him while the latter is attacking Kyoji. However, Ace suddenly teleports, and the powerful shot ends hitting Kyoji instead, leaving him defenseless.'' After teleporting behind Starcade, and knocking her into the wall with a quick attack, Ace walks towards Starcade and Kyoji. However, instead of delivering a final blow, Ace just looks at both of them. Ace teleports away, leaving them very confused. Alice and Tommy come out of their hiding place. Meanwhile, back to the gang who has found Electra attacking the park. ''Blast flies directly towards Electra at high speed, planning to punch her in the face. However, he ends up strangely flying through Electra, and falling in a forcefield trap.'' Suddenly, the illusion of Electra disappears, as the real Electra walks into the scene. Electra levitates all the trees, benches, fountains, picnic tables and other large objects in the park, and tosses them at the Locked Room Gang. ''Green Shadow catches the objects, despite getting weaker each time she catches an object.  Red Fork and Blue Ocean create light, deactivating Electra's shadow powers.'' ''Red Ruby throws a cluster of dynamite sticks at once towards Electra, giving her no chance to dodge the attacks. Red Fork & Blue Ocean finish the job with some fast magic blasts.'' ''Electra falls onto the grass, defeated. Blue Ocean uses his magic to deactivate the forcefield Blast was trapped in.'' ''The gang goes to find Opposite Blast. Meanwhile, at the coast, Captain Red Shell is with Coconut Crab and Gary Guppy.'' Suddenly, the three sea fighters hear a short flute melody. The three sea creatures look around, and see Ace at the coast. Captain Red Shell rushes to Ace to attack him, but Ace teleports, and shoots a shadow blast at Captain Red Shell from behind. ''Gary Guppy throws several bombs at Ace, but he uses his super speed to dodge them all. Then he shoots a shadow blast at Gary Guppy, knocking him out.'' Ace teleports behind Captain Red Shell, and kicks him against a rock. ''Coconut Crab starts shooting coconuts at Ace, but he blocks them with his Ace Shield. Captain Red Shell takes advantage of the distraction to slash Ace from behind. Ace takes some damage, but quickly turns and shoots a shadow blast at Captain Red Shell, knocking him back against the rock.'' Coconut Crab throws more coconuts at Ace, but Ace blocks them off with his Ace Shield, before shooting a powerful shadow blast at Coconut Crab, knocking him out too. ''Captain Red Shell slashes at Ace again, but the latter defends himself with his Ace Shield. Finally, Ace charges a powerful shadow blast towards Captain Red Shell, knocking him into another rock, and leaving him too weak to continue.'' ''Ace looks at Captain Red Shell, who is staring at Ace. Ace is about to deliver a final blow on Captain Red Shell, but instead takes a couple of steps backwards.'' Ace teleports away, leaving Captain Red Shell weakened, while Coconut Crab and Gary Guppy are knocked out. Back to the gang, they're in the city, until they find Opposite Blast, who is using his new shadow powers to demolish several buildings in the city. Red Fork and Blue Ocean use their horns to create light, and render Opposite Blast's shadow powers useless. ''Green Shadow packs a powerful punch and does an uppercut on Opposite Blast. Opposite Blast fights back, lifting Jelo with one hand, and Green Shadow with another, and tossing both of them into a wall.'' Opposite Blast and Blast start fighting in mid-air, using their super speed and ability to fly to attack each other in mid-air. Both superpowered teenagers continue fighting each other.
 * Captain Red Shell: They're already knocked out.
 * Captain Red Shell: We must take our allies to a safe place, and rethink our strategies. It's too dangerous to leave them here.
 * Opposite Blast: Oh, so you're going to quit already? I thought you were a true warrior!
 * Captain Red Shell: Ignore him. We must put our friends safe first.
 * Starcade: You guys get them to safety, I'll hold them off!
 * Green Shadow: Are you sure about this? They're not the same as before, in fact, they're even more powerful than before!
 * Starcade: Well, I can't let them knock you out while trying to get the others to a safe place. It'll be over if all three of us go and save them at once. I'll stay here and do whatever I can.
 * Green Shadow: *sighs* Very well, but please be careful. Come on, Captain Red Shell!
 * Opposite Blast: *smiles with an evil look* Getting rid of you will be so satisfying.
 * Electra: You can say that again.
 * Blade: It'll be delightful!
 * Richard: ...Where am I?
 * Kyoji: What happened?
 * Toby Topaz: I feel dizzy...
 * Jelo: I dunno about you guys, but that was the worst battle we've fought.
 * Green Shadow: Listen, Opposite Blast has knocked you out earlier. I'm glad you're alright.
 * Diana Diamond: What do we do now?
 * Toby Topaz: We might actually lose this time!
 * Green Shadow: I believe in all of us. Even so, we have to rethink our strategies. We have to come up with a new and unexpected strategy to beat the four of them.
 * Kyoji: Wait a minute, where's Starcade?
 * Green Shadow: She's out there tackling the four villains alone.
 * Kyoji: Say what? That's too dangerous!
 * Green Shadow: I know, but that's the only way to get you guys to safety without all of us being obliterated completely.
 * Kyoji: I just hope she's doing fine against them.
 * Richard: Yeah, I hope so.
 * Blast: Boulder?
 * Boulder: She was about to be knocked out by those four jerks. I saw what was going on, and helped her escape before it was too late.
 * Alice: But, how did Dr. Zack's allies become so powerful?
 * Starcade: No idea, the battle was rather a crazy one. The four of them were using shadow arts against me, and I had a hard time dodging them all at once.
 * Green Shadow: I fear that we might be dealing with a nemesis stronger than any of us think. And I don't mean Dr. Zack.
 * Red Fork: Whatever is going on here, we've got to get to the bottom of it, and fast.
 * Richard: Okay, and...
 * Toby Topaz: How are we going to do that...outside?
 * Jelo: Gang, I think we might need to head somewhere else for this.
 * Red Fork: That sounds like a good idea.
 * Blue Ocean: Let's do it, and fast. Echo Creek is counting on us.
 * Jelo: Okay. Blue Ocean, teleport us somewhere hidden.
 * Star: *slightly teary* It's okay, Marco. You'll be okay.
 * Blue Ocean: Got it.
 * Blue Ocean: This is my lab. No one other than me and Red Fork know of it's location. Well, now you know about it too, but no one else.
 * Red Fork: This will be a good place to stay safe until we find out how to defeat Opposite Blast and his allies.
 * Jelo: Hey wait, can you check to see if Marco's okay?
 * Alice: I've got it covered. I'm the closest thing we have to a real doctor.
 * Alice: Well, I can perceive his vital signs. He's breathing, and his heart rate is in the normal range. He has a couple of injuries and burns, but he'll be ok. He just needs some rest. I think I have some aloe vera ointment I can apply to his burns. *checks her backpack*
 * Star: Phew, thanks Alice. I was pretty worried.
 * Blast: So while we're at that, how do we defeat those villains? They're much powerful than before!
 * Tommy: They literally owned us without even trying!
 * Captain Red Shell: Calm down. Panicking will not help us. We must stay calm and think of a solution.
 * Jelo: Wait, where's Jaiden?
 * Jaiden: Here I am!
 * Blast: Jaiden! Are you ok?
 * Jaiden: I've got a couple of scratches, but I'll be ok. Thanks for asking.
 * Green Shadow: So I was thinking of the "light beats shadow" strategy. They're using shadow attacks after all. Shall we try that?
 * Red Fork: Sure, I think it's the best choice.
 * Blue Ocean: Guys, I'm receiving several distress signals. And this time, they're in different areas of the city. That can only mean that the four villains have split up!
 * Captain Red Shell: It's our chance to defeat them.
 * Jelo: Sounds like a good strategy.
 * Green Shadow: Now that we have a strategy, we shall use it against them. Let's go, Echo Creek is counting on us!
 * Blast: So, should we split up to fight the villains?
 * Star: I need somebody to take care of Marco.
 * Alice: I can take him to my lab. I can take better care of him there.
 * Tommy: I'll go with you, Alice!
 * Green Shadow: I think it's best if we stop them together.
 * Jaiden: Sounds great! 
 * Blast: Got it. Let's go for the first of them!
 * Red Ruby: Hey, "cut" it out!
 * Kyoji: Leave that store alone! This is between you and us.
 * Blade: You guys again? I'll "cut" you down to size! If you don't surrender now!
 * Kyoji: Bring it on!
 * Green Shadow: Red Fork and Blue Ocean, you know what to do, right?
 * Star: Yeah, come on!
 * Red Fork: Yup!
 * Blue Ocean: We're ready!
 * Blade: Aw, man! Well, I guess I've gotta use the traditional "cut"! Down the middle!
 * Jelo: Ack! Everyone, dodge!
 * Kyoji: Looks like you're going down! But don't worry, your friends will be going down soon enough!
 * Blade: Yikes!
 * Jaiden: Time to stop and freeze, Blade. *shoots ice blasts at Blade*
 * Captain Red Shell: Excellent. *jumps towards Blade, and slashes him repeatedly with his sword*
 * Blade: Nooo!
 * Richard: Yeah!
 * Blast: Wow, that was easy.
 * Jaiden: I agree. We defeated him with barely any effort!
 * Kyoji: To be fair, we couldn't have done it without the power of light.
 * Green Shadow: Let's go stop the next one!
 * Alice: There you go. That aloe vera ointment should help heal your burns.
 * Tommy: Well, what do we do now?
 * Alice: Well...
 * Alice: Who are you!?
 * Ace: That's beyond the point. Now tell me, where is he?
 * Tommy: Where is who?
 * Ace: My brother. I'm certain that you two know of his whereabouts. So tell me at once, and don't try to play any tricks. It won't work.
 * Alice: Uh, sorry mister, we don't know where your brother is. How would we know?
 * Ace: Don't make fools of yourselves. I can perceive both of you know him, and know where he is. So tell me where he is, or I'll be forced to take action.
 * Alice: Hey, calm down! We don't know who your brother is!
 * Ace: So, you refuse to cooperate. Dr. Zack said you'd do that.
 * Tommy: Dr. Zack!? You're working with him!?
 * Ace: Precisely.
 * Alice: You must be the one who taught shadow arts to Opposite Blast and his friends.
 * Ace: Guilty. Now if you don't start talking, I'll have to force you to.
 * Tommy: What do we do?
 * Alice: Stay behind we, Tommy.
 * Alice: That's it, leave us alone weirdo!
 * Tommy: Aah! He has a shield!
 * Ace: The Ace Shield, the most powerful shield ever known to shadow ninjas or mad scientists alike. Now think fast.
 * Tommy: Ouch!
 * Alice: Hey, leave Tommy alone!
 * Alice: Who are you anyway?
 * Ace: Who am I? I'm The Ace. Now it's time to turn off the lights.
 * Alice: What?
 * Ace: If you fight villains, you should consider training. A villain will have no mercy when fighting. As a Locked Room Gang member, you should be prepared. Now if you excuse me, I must find my lost brother.
 * Tommy: What was that all about?
 * Alice: I don't know, but the gang needs to know this. *calls the Locked Room Gang*
 * Green Shadow: I wonder who we're fighting next.
 * Alice: Guys, we've got important things to tell you!
 * Blue Ocean: What is it?
 * Alice: We were attacked by a shadow ninja. He calls himself "The Ace".
 * Blast: Are you guys ok!? A shadow ninja is nothing to take lightly.
 * Alice: We're beaten up, but strangely, he didn't kill us or anything. He says he's working for Dr. Zack, and he says to be the one that taught shadow arts to Dr. Zack's minions.
 * Red Fork: So that's where they learned the shadow arts from.
 * Richard: Ahh.
 * Kyoji: Isn't Akasha the only shadow ninja left? How is there another one? Did you happen to see "The Ace" wearing gauntlets?
 * Alice: I don't remember seeing him using gauntlets. But he uses a gray scarf, and carries a shield he calls "The Ace Shield".
 * Blast: Do you guys need anything?
 * Alice: Well, fortunately, The Ace didn't find Marco, but we're really injured. If someone else comes to attack us, we won't be able to defend Marco.
 * Red Fork: So, you need someone else to take care of Marco?
 * Alice: That would be a good idea. We can't defend Marco in this state.
 * Red Fork: We'll send a few gang members to protect Marco and you guys. They'll be there in a few minutes.
 * Alice: Thanks guys! And be careful. The Ace could be anywhere! *call ends*
 * Richard: Are you sending me?
 * Red Fork: No. A shadow ninja is a dangerous opponent. I think we need someone who could be able to fight a shadow ninja. Perhaps a couple that has experience fighting shadow ninjas? *looks at Kyoji and Starcade*
 * Richard: Fine...
 * Kyoji: Sure. I've dealt with Akasha countless times after all.
 * Starcade: Yeah, but the Ace might be dangerous. I'm lending Kyoji a hand.
 * Kyoji: I guess it's settled then. Starcade and I will help Alice and Tommy.
 * Red Fork: Good. The rest of us will take out the other villains.
 * Blue Ocean: Oh, by the way, you should consider taking Marco, Alice and Tommy to a new location, since The Ace already found their current hideout.
 * Starcade: Hmm...how about Eitbit?
 * Kyoji: That might work. It's far from Echo Creek.
 * Captain Red Shell: Good idea.
 * Blue Ocean: Good luck guys! We'll stay in contact!
 * Green Shadow: Bet that's Scorch. His days of burning shall be over!
 * Red Ruby: Wait! I got this!
 * Scorch: I'm on fire! 
 * Scorch: You have come to fight me? Fire shall be your destiny! Fire shall be your grave! Fire will be the end of you! Fire!
 * Blast: You never have anything new to say, do you?
 * Scorch: FIRE!!!
 * Richard: Yikes! *dodges*
 * Green Shadow: Let's shine some light at Scorch! Red Fork, Blue Ocean, you know what to do!
 * Red Fork & Blue Ocean: Ready!
 * Scorch: You might have gotten rid of my shadow powers, but the flames inside me will never be put off! I'm on fire!
 * Captain Red Shell: I think you made a bad decision to attack near the coast. Sean, can you use the ocean to put off Scorch's flames?
 * Sean Sapphire: Certainly!
 * Sean Sapphire: And that's why I say no to your fires, Scorch.
 * Janna: Ooh, burn!
 * Star: Whoa, hey Janna!
 * Scorch: Oof!
 * Red Fork: Sorry to put out your fire, Scorch, but we can't have you destroying things.
 * Scorch: You haven't seen the last of me yet!
 * Blue Ocean: Well, that's two villains down. Let's go for the next one.
 * Captain Red Shell: You guys must go. I will stay here to rebuild the damage done to the dock, and comfort the sea creatures that were caught in the middle of the fire. I want them to know that they're safe now.
 * Blast: Ok then. You stay here. We go for the next villain.
 * Captain Red Shell: Agreed.
 * Blast: So who's next?
 * Blue Ocean: According to the distress signals... Electra is wrecking the park.
 * Red Fork: Let's go stop her.
 * Diana Diamond: She's going down!
 * Green Shadow: Let's get moving, we don't have much time to lose!
 * Alice: Thanks for helping us. The Ace came out of nowhere!
 * Tommy: But it's still strange how he defeated us, but didn't actually kill us.
 * Starcade: Maybe he has pity on you two. Or that he finds that you're useful to his cause in the future.
 * Kyoji: It doesn't matter. We'll stop him the next time he shows up.
 * Alice: That's the melody we heard before The Ace appeared.
 * Tommy: Aah! He's back!
 * Kyoji: Allow me to take care of this.
 * Ace: Kyoji, ice ninja, and Starcade, leader of the Retro Rebels. Am I correct?
 * Kyoji: Yes, you are.
 * Starcade: Don't forget about the fact that I'm a Star Fighter though. How did you know about us anyway?
 * Ace: I have my sources of information. Now where is my brother?
 * Kyoji: We don't know who that is!
 * Starcade: Could you tell us the identity of your brother?
 * Ace: His name is Alex! He's a few years younger than me. Don't tell me you don't know him. I have good reasons to suspect you not only know him, but also know where he is now. So stop trying to play tricks, and tell me where he is.
 * Kyoji: Alex? We don't have anyone in our gang with that name.
 * Starcade: We're not tricking you in any way, mister! Also, we know that you're working for Dr Zack, so did he tell you about us knowing the location of your brother?
 * Ace: He told me you'd refuse to cooperate. I'm certain that you know of him. So if you're trying to challenge my intelligence, I'll challenge your power now. Prepare yourselves.
 * Starcade: We could've helped you find your brother, but since you're going to attack us, we'll have to fight you.
 * Ace: I'm sorry it has to be this way, but I must find my brother.
 * Starcade: We need another strategy.
 * Kyoji: I'll give you time to charge up a powerful attack on Ace by distracting him.
 * Starcade: Got it.
 * Kyoji: You there! Fight me if you wish, but leave the others out of this!
 * Ace: A one-on-one duel? Sounds good to me. May the strongest fighter win.
 * Kyoji: If I have dealt with Akasha many times, I can do the same for you!
 * Ace: Akasha? Yes, I've heard of her. However, I recommend you don't underestimate your foes. You might have a nasty surprise.
 * Kyoji: I never underestimate my foes. I'm just saying that to make myself feel more confident that I can defeat you.
 * Starcade: Oops, sorry!
 * Ace: I must say, you two are good fighters. As a team, you're well synchronized. Your timing could be a bit polished, though.
 * Ace: I guess this is where it ends. Isn't it?
 * Ace: I perceive it. You've got a strong relationship. As long as you stay together, your victories will outnumber your defeats by a wide margin.
 * Kyoji: Yes, currently it's a wide margin as for now.
 * Ace: I'll be leaving now. My brother is still out there, and I must find him. Keep on fighting as a team. You proved to be worthy opponents.
 * Starcade: Um...what just happened?
 * Kyoji: No idea. Anyway, where's Alice and Tommy?
 * Alice: Here we are.
 * Tommy: Did you see that!? He has superpowers too!
 * Alice: I still don't understand him. Instead of killing us, he always leaves. That's definitely not like anything Dr. Zack, Opposite Blast or any of them would do.
 * Kyoji: Me neither. I'm still wondering how the rest of us are doing though.
 * Gary Garnet: I don't understand. Why would she attack a park of all places?
 * Janna: I dunno, because there's lots of people?
 * Blast: I don't know, but I do know what we're going to do about it!
 * Blast: What the!?
 * Blue Ocean: It's a trap!
 * Electra: You really fell for a hologram? *laughs at Blast* I don't even get how you're supposed to be a threat, Blast!
 * Green Shadow: Stop bullying Blast!
 * Red Ruby: Prepare to get exploded!
 * Electra: Oh, really? You guys again? You can't do anything to me now! Time to get shocked!
 * Electra: *Evil laugh* Victory will be mine!
 * Green Shadow: Quick! Shed some light at Electra! I can't keep this up much longer! *collapses the moment she catches a huge tree*
 * Red Fork & Blue Ocean: Got it!
 * Electra: Hey! No fair!
 * Blast: *inside the forcefield trap* What? You can't fight without shadow powers? I don't even get how you're supposed to be a threat, Electra!
 * Blue Ocean: OOOHHH! That was a great burn!
 * Red Ruby: I know a great way for even greater burns! Now prepare for some great explosions!
 * Electra: Eek!
 * Blast: Thanks.
 * Jaiden: Are you ok, Blast?
 * Blast: Yeah, I'm ok.
 * Blue Ocean: Well, Electra has been defeated. Now we're only missing Opposite Blast.
 * Toby Topaz: Uh oh.
 * Diana Diamond: Let's go find him.
 * Captain Red Shell: Good job. We have finished repairing the damage Scorch has done, and the sea creatures are safe again.
 * Coconut Crab: It looks great captain, even better than before it was all burnt down.
 * Gary Guppy: What's that?
 * Coconut Crab: I don't know.
 * Captain Red Shell: That tune... I think I remember it from somewhere...
 * Ace: Captain Red Shell, I presume.
 * Captain Red Shell: Who are you, stranger?
 * Ace: Don't you remember me? I was there the first time you invaded my city.
 * Captain Red Shell: What?
 * Ace: It was a long time ago. I was with my brother at the beach, when you came along with your ship, and attacked my home city. It was after that day, that I never saw my brother again.
 * Captain Red Shell: I want you to know that my days as an evil captain are over. I have moved on to a new leaf, and now I'm an honorable member of the Locked Room Gang.
 * Ace: Good. In that, case, I suppose you know where my younger brother is.
 * Captain Red Shell: I do not know your brother.
 * Ace: Yes, you do. Now stop lying, and tell me where Alex is!
 * Captain Red Shell: I already told you, I don't know him. I haven't met anyone with that name.
 * Ace: So, you refuse to help too? Dr. Zack was right about all of you.
 * Captain Red Shell: You work for Dr. Zack? You must be The Ace!
 * Ace: Now we're understanding each other.
 * Captain Red Shell: Alice told us about you. Proceed no further! *points his sword at Ace*
 * Ace: Want to fight? Challenge accepted.
 * Gary Guppy: Blast that guy!
 * Captain Red Shell: *slashes at Ace with his sword* You won't get off the hook, villainous shadow ninja!
 * Ace: *using his Ace Shield to block off Captain Red Shell's attacks* Villainous? Are you sure of what you're saying?
 * Coconut Crab: Captain!
 * Ace: It was because of your invasion that I lost my brother, lost my family, and lost everything I cared about! *shoots powerful shadow blasts at Captain Red Shell, weakening him even more*
 * Captain Red Shell: It wasn't my intention to make you lose track of your brother. I was a different crab back then. A crab led only by his desires of revenge on humanity, and his desire to protect the sea creatures from any perceived threat. It's a shame to remember my past actions. But I've moved on. You should do it too.
 * Ace: Not until I find my brother! I know he's still alive, and I know the Locked Room Gang is aware of him.
 * Ace: It looks like it's only the two of us, captain.
 * Captain Red Shell: I advise you that you stop. This is not the way.
 * Ace: I live my life as I wish, and do whatever I believe is right. Whether you think I'm right or not, does not concern me.
 * Captain Red Shell: I never wanted you to lose your brother. My methods were not the best ones, but in the end, everything that ever mattered to me was to defend those I care for. Do you even know what it is, to see yourself forced to take extreme measures to protect those you care for?
 * Ace: Certainly. If you haven't noticed, my only reason to fight is to find my brother again. I will not rest until I find him.
 * Ace: it was a nice reunion captain, but I must end this now.
 * Captain Red Shell: If that will calm your fury, then end it now.
 * Captain Red Shell: What is it?
 * Ace: I can't do it. I'm not a murderer. I haven't forgiven you for what you did to me, but I won't kill you.
 * Captain Red Shell: *smiles* That's what I wanted to hear. Perhaps there is some nobility inside your heart after all.
 * Ace: I must leave now. Alex needs me.
 * Captain Red Shell: Then by all means, find him. Just make sure to not let anyone innocent get caught in the crossfire. You wouldn't want to make someone suffer what you did, would you?
 * Ace: Train harder, captain. You'll have your rematch some day. Trust me, this isn't over.
 * Captain Red Shell: The gang should be about to finish their mission now. They'll do fine. I trust them.
 * Amelia Amethyst: Hey, Opposite Blast! We're here!
 * Opposite Blast: I noticed.
 * Red Fork: We're going to defeat you, just like we did to Scorch, Blade and Electra!
 * Opposite Blast: What? Already?
 * Blast: Yup!
 * Opposite Blast: Those three can't do a thing without me... Well, no more games, time for a real fight!
 * Red Fork: You're on! Blue Ocean?
 * Blue Ocean: Certainly.
 * Opposite Blast: Whatever. I'm still the strongest around!
 * Jelo: Not anymore. *grabs out his sword and slashes at Opposite Blast*
 * Green Shadow: You think so?
 * Blast: That's it Opposite Blast! You're going down!
 * Opposite Blast: Come at me, if you dare.
 * Jaiden: Blast, doyou need help up there?
 * Blast: Yeah, that would be nice.
