Stories: Parallel Peril

A Note from PeaVZ108: Woohoo! Another story! This time I'm doing one that involves the infamous Explodonaters.

Plot
The Explodonaters have invented a time machine which allows them to go on exciting adventures to different eras. However, Slick messes up when he presses the wrong button, which instantly creates another planet known as Dark Earth, similar to the regular Earth but only full of pure evil. As Dark Earth invades regular Earth, the Explodonaters must recruit all the necessary help they can get and travel to Dark Earth to stop its reign of terror.

Cast

 * Slick
 * Petra
 * Minimus

Story
One night, in the Explodonaters' hideout...

Minimus: And...*tightens the last bolt into the machine* Voila! Here it is. After seven days and eleven hours, I've made our first time machine!

Petra: Oh cool. And what is that for?

Minimus: The PvZ Institute is really inactive for the past few months, so I decided to put an end to our boredom. And adventure seems to be our solution!

Petra: That's perfect! Now we have one less thing to do on our bucket list!

Slick and CB2 arrive.

CB2: What's that you got there, Minimus?

Minimus: This? Heh heh. It's a time machine for all four of us to explore the different eras!

CB2: I don't see why we have to do that, but hey, at least we get out of Boredom Borderlands!

Slick: *deep breath* ADVENTURE!!!

Petra: Terrible MCSM reference.

Minimus: Well, I have to admit, Slick's getting better at the jokes. Well, what are we waiting for? Let's explore!

The Explodonaters hop into their time machine.

Minimus: Okay, Slick. Hit that switch!

Slick: Got it!

Minimus: Wait, NO! That's the wrong...

Slick: *presses a red button*

Minimus: ...button.

The time machine spits the four of them out, while summoning a dark purple star which immediately begins its course to outer space!

CB2: Onto the Red Bomber! Follow that star!

The Explodonaters hop onto their airship, the Red Bomber, and chase after the star.

Petra: This is why we don't bring you anywhere, Slick.

Minimus: Lay him off, Petra. I'm partially at fault too. I didn't tell him which button to hit.

Both the star and the Red Bomber soon reach outer space. The star explodes, causing a huge shockwave which barely misses the Red Bomber.

Slick: Is that how the Big Bang Theory came about?

The shockwave dissipates, revealing a planet similar to Earth, only dark-coloured. A spaceship appears, which looks exactly like the Red Bomber. The other spaceship charges at the Red Bomber, firing explosives at it.

CB2: Holy crabs! A carbon-copy of our spaceship?

Minimus: How did my time machine even do that?

The carbon-copy of the Red Bomber chase the actual Red Bomber. The Explodonaters decide to fly back to Earth and land. They exit their ship, coughing and catching their breaths.

Petra: What the heck is that?

Minimus: A close call?

Petra: No, what the heck is THAT? *points to the other spaceship*

The other spaceship's door opens, revealing a Potato Mine, a Stunion, a Citron and a Cherry Bomb.

Slick: Are those us?

Minimus: Yeah, those are us. But why?

Dark CB2: MUAHAHAHAHA!!! Thank you for giving your lives to us! Now we'll take your planet!

CB2: Wait, I wonder what's happening to the rest of Earth...
