EB Rewrite Part 25:

Ness and Co. Go Down the Hole...

Wetnosaur: (standing there in the Lost Underworld picking his nose) Hee hee.

Ness: (comes flying out of a whole in the ceiling of the vast underground cavern and plummets towards the dinosaur)

Paula and Co.: (come hurtling after)

Wetnosaur: (looks up) Urrr?

Ness and Co. (bounce off of the Wetnosaur’s head and smash into the ground)

Jeff: (dusts himself off) Cool, we’re in a huge subterranean cavern filled with prehistoric plants and animals!

Poo: And dinosaurs! (points to the ticked off Wetnosaur)

Paula: (strangling Ness) Hm, yeah, I guess we’ll all need to keep going then.

Ness: (shoves her away) GASP! Yes, we need to stick together!

Exit Mouse: I say we head for that big wooden fence over there.

Ness, Paula, Jeff, and Poo: (run past, being chased by the Wetnosaur) GOOD IDEA!!!!!

Ness: (pounds on the door of a big wooden fence encircling something) Let us in, let us in!

Tenda: (pops its head over the edge of the fence) Hey, how do we know you guys aren’t dinosaurs?

Paula: Cuz we’re about to be eaten by one! (points to the rapidly approaching Wetnosaur)

Tenda: Well then, what are you guys doing inside our dinosaur cage?

Jeff: Trying not to get eaten!

Tenda: (thinks for a second) Yeah okay, come on in. (opens the door)

Ness and Co.: (scramble inside as the door slams shut)

Wetnosaur: (screeches to a halt outside the door) GROWL! (towers over the fence as he looks down into it, then shrugs and walks off)

Exit Mouse: The dinosaurs are much taller than the fence, why don’t they just break their way in?

Tenda: Cuz they’re inside the cage!

Ness and Co.: ...

Tenda: They’re also pretty stupid.

Exit Mouse: Of course.

Poo: (looks around) You’ve encircled your entire village with a fence, genius!

Tenda: No, you mean the cage we built to keep the dinosaurs in!

Paula: I guess the dinosaurs aren’t the only stupid ones...

Tenda: Huh?

Paula: (grinning) Nevermind! Hey, is that a talking rock?

Talking Rock: Yep.

Ness: Wow, cool!

Talking Rock: Hey Ness, I’m gonna give you some good information, take some notes or something.

Ness: Sounds hard, do I have to?

Talking Rock: Nope.

Paula: Hey, how does he know your name?

Talking Rock: It’s not important, PAULA.

Jeff: Hahaha, he sure shut you up!

Paula: (smacks Jeff)

Talking Rock: So yeah, anyway, You’re THE CHOSEN ONE!

Exit Mouse: GASP!

Ness: Cool, what do I do?

Talking Rock: Uh, collect the eight melodies, it’ll be good and stuff.

Ness: Is that it?

Talking Rock: Yep.

Poo: Didn’t we already know that?

Talking Rock: Shut up, Poo.

Poo: Yes Mr. Rock...

Exit Mouse: Where’s the next melody?

Talking Rock: Over there.

Ness: Thanks!

Paula: Wait, where?

Talking Rock: I’m pointing to it.

Paula: Oooh, okay!

Exit Mouse: Okay, this is just dumb, a rock can’t point!

Ness: Well then what’s he doing right now?

Paula: Yeah, Exit!

Jeff: Makes sense to me.

Poo: (running around being chased by a mob of Tendas) My head is not made of Tendakraut!

Exit Mouse: Does the place have a freakin name?

Talking Rock: It’s the Fire Springs, to the West.

Exit Mouse: Finally, sheesh.

Talking Rock: I’m flipping you off right now.

Ness: Are you gonna just take that, Exit?

Exit Mouse: ARRGGH! Let’s just go! (he leads the group out of the village and they head westward)

Ego Orb: (rolls towards them) Helloooooo!

Jeff: What kind of dinosaur is that?

Paula: A strangely creepy one.

Ego Orb: (starts rolling around) Gwargh!

Ness: (dodges the giant rolling thing) Eat bat! (smacks the ego orb)

Ego Orb: You cannot defeat me, I’m bigger than you are!

Paula: PSI Fire Omega! (sets the ego orb on fire)

Ego Orb: AGH! (rolls off, setting large groups of trees on fire)

Jeff: Dang, we should do something about that.

Paula: (grinning) Haven’t yet!

Exit Mouse: Hey, where’s Poo?

Ness: Eeew, I think I’m standing in some!!!!

Exit Mouse: Not that kind!

Chomposaur: (rears up over the group) Growr!

Poo: (stuck in the dinosaur’s mouth) Agh! Help!

Jeff: (whips out his heavy bazooka) I’ll get ya down, Poo! (fires at the Chomposaur)

Chomposaur: (laughs evilly as the blast is deflected by his Power Shield)

Jeff: (is blown backwards) Gah, why does a dinosaur have a shield?

Ness: Don’t worry Jeff, we’ve got it under control!

Paula: Just let us USEFUL members of the team take out the dinosaur!

Jeff: Grrr.

Ness: Ready Paula? (winks)

Paula: You know it! (grins)

Chomposaur: (swallows Poo) Hee hee.

Ness and Paula: INSANE DOUBLE PSYCHIC OMEGA BLAST! (Ness fires off a huge blast of PSI Rockin Omega combined with Paula’s blast of PSI Freeze Omega)

Chomposaur: (is hit by both blasts and explodes in a huge mess of goo)

Poo: (standing there amid the ickyness) I feel soooooo wrong.

Ness and Paula: (high five) Oh yeah, who bad? We bad!

Exit Mouse: Ness, since when do you know PSI Rockin Omega?

Ness: (Shrugs) Go figure, it was needed for a plot point.

Paula: (pulls a Magic Fry Pan out of the gooey remains of the Chomposaur) Hey, a magic fry pan! Who wants eggs and bacon?

Jeff and Ness: Ooh, ooh, us!

Exit Mouse: Aren’t you gonna wipe it off first?

Paula: Obviously, you don’t know anything about "flavoring" Exit.

Poo: (Wanders shakily over to a hole in the ground) Hey guys, what’s this?

Ness: Looks like a hole.

Paula: We’ve only had trouble with holes, lately.

Jeff: Hey, now the ground’s shaking!

Exit Mouse: If we weren’t so stupid, we’d move by now!

Ness, Paula, Jeff, and Poo: (nod their heads) Yep!

Geyser: (suddenly a huge blast of blue water comes shooting out of the geyser, carrying the group high into the sky)

Poo: Agh! It burns, yet at the same time refreshes my spirit!

Paula: Ahhh, just like a nice hot tub...with clothes!

Ness: Hey, I can see Tenda village from here!

Jeff: Duh, we left it like, 5 minutes ago!

Geyser: (suddenly surges again, sending the group flying off into the air)

Ness and Co.: (crash to the ground outside a cave)

Exit Mouse: Pretty nifty, in exchange for being scalded we got our HP refilled and a free trip to the Fire Springs!

Ness: Whee, what a deal!

Poo: (whips out a present from somewhere) Look what I found on the way!

Paula: How the heck did you find a present on the way here? WE FLEW!

Poo: (ignores her) It’s the Cloak of Kings! Yay! Finally my gear is complete!

Jeff: Cool, it was so not worth the wait!

Ness: (points into the cave) Come on guys, we hafta get in there and do stuff, we’re the chosen ones you know!

Paula, Jeff, and Poo: Yeah, sure, whatever.

Ness: It IS kinda warm tho, and the fire coming out of those springs looks pretty dangerous.

Exit Mouse: GET IN THERE (kicks the four chosen kids into the Fire Springs cave)

Ness: Ooh, lava! I wanna play with it!

Exit Mouse: No Ness, bad! (holds him back)

Poo: Is it getting hot in here?

Paula: Don’t tell me he just said what I think he just said...

Jeff: I think I have sunstroke!

Soul Consuming Flame: (slithers over to the group) Growl!

Poo: What is that?

Paula: It’s a flaming pile of...eeewww!

Soul Consuming Flame: Soul Consuming Flame, thank you very much!

Jeff: (blasts whatever it is) Eat it, pile!

Poo: Should I use PSI Freeze?

Ness: But wouldn’t fire melt the freeze?

Paula: Well I’d assume it would cause a rapid temperature change in the fiery creature, thus injuring it not only because of the damage caused by a psychic blast, but also because of the damage caused by the rapid expansion of such a decrease in temperature.

Exit Mouse: You just BS’d that whole thing, didn’t you?

Paula: (grinning) Of course!

Jeff: (holding his still smoking Heavy Bazooka) You guys don’t have to worry, I already made it "stop moving."

Ness: Oh, okay. (they head into the bizarre twist of caves and lava that make up the Fire Springs)

Exit Mouse: Who left all these presents on the ground, that’s ridiculous!

Jeff: (holding his new Moon Beam Gun) I’m not complaining!

Evil Elemental #1: (shows up) Fwa!

Evil Elemental #2: (pops out of the ground) Haha!

Paula: Uh...?

Poo: Stand back guys, I’ve handled guys like this before! (walks up to the elementals)

Exit Mouse: (checking the back episodes) No you haven’t!

Poo: Oh yeah, crap! (gets possessed by a mini ghost)

Mini Ghost: Hee hee! (pokes Poo in the eyes)

Poo: ARGH! (rolls on the ground in agony)

Ness: (bashes the elemental #1) Die...again!

Evil Elemental #1: (poofs out of existence)

Jeff: (blasts the other elemental into nothingness) Boo yeah!

Exit Mouse: What do we do with the mini-ghost?

Poo: (running around screaming as the mini-ghost pulls his hair) Help!

Paula: Hey guys, I’d duck if I were you!

Ness: Why?

Psychic Psycho and Major Psychic Psycho: (show up and blast the group with dual PSI Fire Betas) Bwa hahahahaha!!!!!!!

Ness: Agh! (is blown backward into the wall)

Jeff: Gah! (is hurled into the wall beside Ness)

Exit Mouse: Shucks! (is flung into the wall too)

Poo: Mommy! (is crushed into the ground by the psychic power)

Mini Ghost: (gets vaporized)

Paula: (stands calmly as the cascading psychic energy of fire washes over her)

Ness: (gasping) How, how can you stand that, Paula?

Paula: (grinning) I like the fire.

Jeff: Really?

Paula: Hee hee, I also have this Sea Pendant I picked up! (holds up her nifty blue sea pendent)

Major Psychic Psycho: No matter, I will crush you with my PSI Shield!

Paula: (bashes the crap outta him)

Psychic Psycho: I’m outta ideas.

Paula: Good. (blows him away with PSI Freeze)

Ness: Ouch, what now?

Poo: There’s the Shining Spot!

Exit Mouse: Wow, convenient! (they wander up to the Shining Spot)

Carbon Dog: Woof.

Paula: A flaming dog, cool!

Carbon Dog: (starts spewing fireballs)

Ness: (dives under a fireball as he bashes the dog)

Jeff: (blasts away with the Heavy Bazooka)

Poo: (tries mirror...it fails)

Paula: (fires away with PSI Freeze omega)

Carbon Dog: Woof. (the figure of Carbon Dog slowly melts away, the flames dying out to reveal a shining, crystal surface beneath)

Diamond Dog: Woof. (his spines suddenly jut out, finishing the transformation)

Poo: I got ‘em! (slashes the Sword of Kings into Diamond Dog)

Diamond Dog: Woof. (his power shield deflects the attack)

Poo: Arggh! (is flung backwards)

Jeff: Gimme a sec, guys. (starts pulling random bits of junk out of his pockets)

Ness and Paula: No hurry! (running around the area being chased by Diamond Dog)

Jeff: (jams all the stuff together) There! I’ve reassembled my Shield Killer! It’s amazing how much damage can be done to this stuff just from me being hurled all over the place and falling down holes all the time!

Exit Mouse: (riding on Ness’ hat) Any time now, Jeff!

Jeff: Yeah! (blasts Diamond Dog with the Shield Killer)

Diamond Dog: (skids to a halt) Woof?

Jeff: (rams a bunch of bottle rockets into Diamond Dog’s mouth)

Diamond Dog: (his eyes grow huge as Ness and Co. dive for cover) Mrowf? (explodes)

Ness: Oh yeah, we did it! (they run into the last sanctuary)

Paula: Wow, pretty fire everywhere! (her eyes glow a bit)

Jeff: (idly throwing bottle rockets into nearby lava pools) Yeah!

Poo: (as they come to a final little lava pool thing) This must be it!

Exit Mouse: Good you’re here to tell us this stuff, Poo.

Ness: (pulls out the vibrating Sound Stone) Do your stuff! (they record the melody of the Fire Springs, the LAST one, finally)

Paula, Jeff, Poo, and Exit Mouse: Yay.

Ness: Boo yeah! (suddenly falls over, passed out)

Paula: OMG, Ness! (rushes over to Ness’ unconscious self)

Jeff: Paula, I didn’t know you cared! (snicker)

Paula: (pulls out the remote for Auto Battle and such) Hee hee, I don’t!

Exit Mouse: (snatches it away) Give me that! (pokes Ness with it) Hey Ness, wake up!

Poo: Maybe I could give him a brainshock!

Exit Mouse: Nah, I guess we just have to wait for him to wake up.

Paula: That’s it?

Exit Mouse: Yep.

Paula, Jeff, and Poo: Awwwww.

Jeff: Anyone got some cards?

Paula: Ooh, I do!

Exit Mouse: Sweet! (the poker commences)

Ness’ Mind: (slowly spiraling out of control) This sucks!

Amazing! Ness and Co. have finally collected the final of the eight melodies, but something or other has come over Ness, leaving him stricken on the ground! His friends, at a loss of what to do, seem to be occupying themselves with poker at the moment, but for how long? And what of Ness? What strange journey to a weird colorful world of his past is he heading for? You should know, sheesh. See ya next time for Episode 26: Ness’ Trip to Hallucination Land!
