I watched the whole season on Hulu, and I gotta say that as far as reboots go, this is definitely one of the ones that are as good as and respectful to the original, and not just made because they wanted to cash in on the popularity of the original show. A lot of the episodes were really funny, especially since we get to hear the Warners making jokes and references to modern pop culture, though it is a little shocking to hear Wakko and Brain say the word "hell". The songs and music is great too, especially since they got an orchestra to compose the music just like the original series did.
There are a few drawbacks though. The only recurring segments on the show are "The Warners" and "Pinky and the Brain", which aren't bad. The segments are good quality, but can get a little tiresome after a while. There are two completely new shorts in a couple of episodes, but for me, they are either hit or miss. There is a short that explains the absence of characters like "Buttons and Mindy" and "Slappy the Squirrel", and it's done in a pretty funny way that almost shocked me as well, though I'm kinda hoping that there will be future seasons where all those segments come back.
One little nitpick for me is that the opening changed the line from "Dot is cute" to "Dot has wit", which is kinda weird since there was nothing wrong with the original line since it was part of Dot's character, unless the executives thought it was too sexist or something. Even more weird is that aspect of Dot's character wasn't dropped because there are two episodes that focused on Dot worrying about her cuteness. They also seem to be pushing for Dot to be the most focused and leader of the three, which was a role Yakko had in the original since he's the oldest. That kinda bothers me, I guess cuz Yakko is my favorite of the Warners.
That's all I got, so I say if you enjoyed the original series, I think you'll definitely enjoy the reboot as well.

As far as silent episodes go, this one was really entertaining. The music was really nice and the visuals when SpongeBob chases the krabby patties throughout the dreams. It was also pretty amusing when we see Mr. Krabs's nightmare, and Squidward getting his "revenge" on SpongeBob and Patrick when they enter his dream. I also kinda liked that this episode took place right after the previous episode. I was sorta expecting it to be a sequel to Sleepy Time, but it proved that it didn't have to be. Great episode.

I thought it was a really great episode. I thought all three storylines were entertaining. I like the funny bit were Bill and Roger only have a bathroom for a dressing room compared to Tom. It was pretty impressive that Squidward was able to come out on top and play good clarinet, even if the audience left before he could play, but was praised by Clare St. Clare. Great episode.

Sure, why not?

I really wanna see it. But I can't because my family is taking me out for my birthday.

What costume were you wearing?

Did you see anything suspicious?

Did you see anything suspicious before you were knocked out?

Did you see SpongeBob talking with anybody before that?

What did you talk to SpongeBob about?

What did you and SpongeBob talk about?
Did you see Plankton and the Flying Dutchman talk to SpongeBob?

I'm surprised a topic wasn't made for this. But the SpongeBob SquarePants anime is basically a fan made web video of what would happen if SpongeBob was made into an anime. The youtube user Narmak made an opening and an ending before making a full on short episode, and all have been pretty popular.

Well, it's nice that we're finally getting new episodes, but why wouldn't they air the rest of Season 12?

Chapter 16: New Beginnings
Back in Cullertown, the group was once again hanging around in the Hewitt Backyard. Wally was not among them and they were all forced to wait around for him since he said he needed to take care of something before sending Ollie, Dean, and Rook back home. He had been up in his room for nearly an hour now that the four had fallen asleep while waiting for him.
Finally, Wally emerged from his house and entered the backyard while wearing his goggles over his eyes and carrying his backpack. Nina was the first to wake up. “Wally, there you are.”
After they all awoke, Ollie confronted him. “Alright, Hewitt, you kept us waiting long enough. Can you tell us what’s going on?”
Lifting the goggles from his eyes, Wally explained, “Well, I figured that since we’re a team now, it’s important for each of us to be able to travel to each other dimensions, so…”
Wally opened his backpack and dug around inside until he pulled out something that left the others speechless.
Dean began asking, “Are those…”
Wally held out three interdimensional portal watches, which now had straps attached to them just like the one he owned. Ollie, Dean, and Rook each take a watch.
Even Ollie couldn’t believe it. “No way!”
“Maisha toso charoumenos!” Rook happily shouted as he jumped into the pool.
“This is amazing, Wally.” Nina said, “Where did you get those?”
Wally answered, “Those robots we fought had them. I figured, with a few alterations, I could put them to better use. Speaking of which…”
He took the Power Charge Crystal from his backpack and placed it on the ground. Wally took a hammer out of his backpack and smashed the crystal into four pieces. He gave Ollie, Dean, and Rook each a piece of the crystal.
“Interdimensional watches must come with interdimensional chargers.” Wally stated.
“Good thinking, Wally.” Nina congratulated.
“You can say that again.” Dean admitted, “Honestly, I don’t think we would have gotten this far without Wally. It was his plan we were following after all.”
“Yes, it was.” Rook said as he held his new hydration collar and scooped it with water before locking it around his neck. He got out of the pool and added, “It was Wally as well who made this device to help me be on the surface.”
The three boys look at each other and turned to Wally as they came to the same decision.
“You know” Dean said. “I think Wally is the best person to be leader of this team.”
“I hate to admit it, but I guess you’re right.” Ollie playfully punched Wally in the arm. “Congratulations, leader.”
Wally smiled humbly, not expecting the others to choose him as their leader. “Gee, thanks, guys. I don’t know what to say.”
“How about what the name of your team is gonna be?” Nina suggested.
They fell silent as they tried to think of a name for themselves, having not had the time to really think of anything.
“I haven’t really thought about that.” Wally admitted.
Suddenly, Rook leapt up and shouted, “Interloopers!”
Wally, Ollie, and Dean reacted in confusion over what Rook had said, believing it to be another of his Atlantean phrases.
“Inter-what?” Ollie asked.
“He called us ‘interloopers’ before.” Rook explained, reminding them of what the First Trooper had referred to them as last night. “That should be our name. We truly are interloopers.”
Wally frowned at Rook’s naivety and obvious mispronunciation of the word “interloper”. He attempted to correct him, “Uhh, Rook? That’s not how you pronounce interlope-”
“I like it.” Dean said with a shrug.
Ollie thought it over. “We’re interdimensional heroes called the Interloopers. I guess it could work.”
Wally smiled as he too felt the name starting to grow on him. “Interloopers it is, then.”
“Great.” An enthusiastic Nina said, “Now that you guys got your leader and your name, I will make sure you guys do your job to protect our dimensions, as your new manager.”
“We’ll also need someone to help keep our interdimensional traveling confidential.” Wally suggested.
“Leave that to your manager as well.”
Wally stepped forward and announced, “Then I suppose this means that the Interloopers are now united.”
Nina and the Interloopers, who now wore their watches, stack their hands together to celebrate the start of their new lives.
In the office of Agent Feller, he was sitting at his desk, typing on a laptop until a knock was heard at the door.
“Enter.” Agent Feller called.
The door opened, and Agent Muldoon came inside. As he approached the desk, Agent Muldoon stated, “Sir, we have reports from the retrieval squad that the Troopers who were brought back from the mission in Dimension J-110 are missing their interdimensional portal watches.”
Agent Feller barely reacted to the news and responded, “Just as I suspected. Have you already tracked the watches’ location?”
“Yes, sir. Unfortunately, they’re each in Dimensions J-152 and J-121. It might interest you to know that I’ve also track the other two missing portal watches to Dimensions J-183 and J-110. Should I send orders to retrieve them, sir?
“Negative.” Agent Feller tossed a folder across the desk towards Agent Muldoon. “These are your new orders.”
Agent Muldoon took the folder and opened it. He saw that inside the folder were photos that each contained an image of the four Interloopers that was taken by the Trooper during their battle.
He was confused since there were no instructions on what he was supposed to do with the photos of boys he had never seen before.
Agent Feller explained, “Those are residents from each of the dimensions where the four missing portal watches are located. I want you to find as much information about them as possible.”
“But sir, these look like children.” Agent Muldoon pointed out.
“Children who pose a much bigger threat than any of us realize. If we want to retrieve our technology and keep our organization confidential, we need to approach this as quietly as possible, or risk further exposure of interdimensional travel. Do I make myself clear?”
Closing the file, Agent Muldoon straightened his posture and answered, “Yes, sir. I’ll do my best, sir.”
As he sat back in his chair, a confident Agent Feller stated, “Things always end in our favor. The favor of the Society.”
The End

Chapter 15: New Resolve
After losing the battle to the Troopers that took Nina with them, leaving Wally and the others with the threat of coming to Sparkle Sity and surrendering themselves, Wally sat there with his head hung in defeat while Ollie and D. Evil regained consciousness.
D. Evil turned to see Rook lying on the ground, asphyxiating. Thinking quickly, D. Evil surrounded Rook in dark energy and levitated him into the air, dropping him into the pool.
Ollie approached the pool, hoping Rook hadn’t been on dry land for too long. Suddenly, there was a splash, nearly wetting Ollie. Rook emerged, looking better than ever as he relaxed on top of the water.
Wally rushed over to them. “Are you guys okay?”
“Yeah, I think so.” Ollie responded. “But those robots got away.”
“And they took Nina with them.” D. Evil mentioned. “All because they want Wally’s portal watch.”
With a heavy sigh, Wally shamefully admitted, “This is all my fault.”
D. Evil removed his mask, revealing his equally ashamed face. “This is all our faults. We were so wrapped up in who would lead this team that we forgot how to act like a team.”
Wally, Ollie, and Rook looked away in remorse as they realized it was their petty fighting that caused Nina to get kidnapped.
Despite this, Wally still couldn’t help but feel solely responsible since he was the one who brought them all together in the first place. As he stared at the interdimensional portal watch, it became clear what decision he had to make in order to fix everything.
Wally noticed the sun starting to rise. He picked up the Power Charge Crystal and held it up towards the sun, letting the sunlight shine through the crystal and illuminate onto the watch. The watch’s battery charged all the way, and the screen turned on.
Ollie, D. Evil, and Rook were amazed that the rock really was able to charge the watch’s battery.
Wally sadly informed them, “Look, I’ll make portals to your dimensions right now and I’ll turn myself in to save Nina. There’s no reason why you guys need to be dragged into this.”
He was about to turn on the watch until Rook grabbed his arm and stopped him. Wally looked up in surprise to see Rook out of the pool, staring at him in determination.
“Do not give up so easily, Wally.” Rook encouraged. “Nina is my friend as well, and I want to help save her.” He gasped and became breathless, but remained positive as he spoke with a rasp, “Even if I do not survive.”
Before he completely suffocated, Rook rushed back to the pool and dove into the water. Wally stared in surprise, having not realized Rook cared so much about him and Nina. He was even more surprised when D. Evil and Ollie came to his side.
“We all wanna help save her.” D. Evil told Wally, placing a comforting hand on his shoulder.
Ollie asked Wally, “Didn’t you say before that you had a plan to help us win?”
Feeling touched by their words of encouragement and willingness to help him rescue Nina, Wally smiled and nodded. He then noticed Rook soaking the hand towel in the pool and wrapping it around his neck, even though it would not keep him hydrated for very long- and definitely not long enough to save Nina.
Wally’s eyes locked onto Dale’s stack of clear plastic rings that sat on the patio and he brightened with an idea.
“You guys sit tight for a bit.” Wally enthusiastically said. “I’ll be right back.”
He ran off towards his house and undid the stack of rings, grabbing the biggest ring before running inside.
Ollie, D. Evil, and Rook stayed in the backyard, wondering what it was that Wally could be doing at a time like this.
“I thought what we said was very inspiring.” Ollie pointed out.
In the dimension containing Sparkle Sity, the sun had just rose over the city where mythical creatures flew through the morning sky. In the park were squirrels, rabbits, and pixies, along with the two Troopers that held Nina hostage.
Struggling to get out of the Trooper’s grasp, Nina yelled, “You’re gonna be in so much trouble when Wally gets here!”
Watching from the First Trooper’s eye, which broadcasted onto Professor Sanders’s computer, the professor asked, “Are you sure this is going to work, sir?”
“It has to.” Agent Feller stoically replied. “Children can be easily persuaded with the right motivation.”
It seemed that Agent Feller was correct when they looked at the screen to see a portal appear in the park. Knowing who would be emerging from the portal, Agent Feller put on the headset, preparing to speak through the First Trooper.
From out of the portal in the park came Wally, Ollie, D. Evil, and Rook. All of whom had sheer determination on their faces as they stood against the Troopers.
“I am pleased you all decided to come.” The First Trooper spoke to them, “Now, I trust you will hand over your watch and come with us to our dimension. I assure you that your friend will not be harmed afterwards.”
“Don’t do it, Wally!” Nina called out to him until the First Trooper covered her mouth, muffling her voice.
The Second Trooper held its right hand out, anticipating the group to come over and Wally to hand over the interdimensional portal watch.
Wally looked at the watch on his wrist as if contemplating what to do. He looked over at Ollie, D. Evil, and Rook. The three gave him reassuring smiles.
“Ready when you are.” D. Evil said to Wally with a wink.
Feeling encouraged and knowing his friends were right behind him, Wally smirked and hid the watch behind his back. He shouted, “Ollie and Rook, to the right. D. Evil and I will take the left.”
Ollie, D. Evil, and Rook nodded in response.
“Now let’s unite to save Nina!”
The four split into action, which was all viewed by Agent Feller and Professor Sanders from their monitor. The former narrowed his eyes in anger and shouted, “Apprehend them! Do whatever it takes!”
Rook touched the plastic collar he was now wearing around his neck, which was filled with water and covered his gills. Wally had made it for him to help Rook breathe on dry land so he could accompany them, and Rook was relieved to see it was working.
Rook confronted the Second Trooper and shouted, “You are to be bested by Rook!” he held his arms out while his tattoos glowed, but realized that he was not controlling any water- because there was no water to control. “Aww, shakaht!” he shouted in dismay.
The Trooper charged at the defenseless Rook. But just like last time, Ollie quickly moved in between them, deflecting the punch by holding out his wand; only this time with the intent of defending Rook rather than to show him up.
As he held the Trooper’s attack back, Ollie said to the Atlantean, “Rook, right over there! There’s a small pond with water you can use!”
Rook turned his head to see an area of bushes and tall grass, which he believed was what Ollie was referring to. Focusing intently, he held his right hand out towards the area and the tattoos on his hand and wrist glowed as a long stream of water lifted into the air.
Smiling in satisfaction, Rook swung his arms and moved the water around the Second Trooper, constricting its arms to its sides.
Ollie twirled backwards and pointed his wand at the Second Trooper, shouting, “SPARKLE GLITTER BLAST!”
A blast of glittery magic hit the Second Trooper and it fell on its back. Rook and Ollie cautiously approached it and saw the glow from its single eye fade as it powered down.
Happy that they managed to defeat the Trooper on their own, Ollie high-fived Rook while cheering, “Awesome!”
“Efcharisto, Ollie.” Rook cheered as well.
Even though he has no idea what Rook was saying, Ollie kindly responded, “No. Efcharisto you, Rook.”
From the other dimension, Professor Sanders informed Agent Feller, “Sir, I’ve lost contact with Trooper 2.”
Realizing what this meant, Agent Feller shook with fury and demanded, “Keep control over the remaining one. Let me handle the rest.”
Wally and D. Evil were taking on the remaining Trooper. D. Evil hovered in the air, and flew towards the First Trooper, holding his right fist out. But anticipating this move, the First Trooper held Nina up like a shield, causing D. Evil to jerk to a stop mid-flight.
The First Trooper swung its other fist towards D. Evil, who had no time react. Wally swung his whip around D. Evil’s ankle and yanked him backwards to save him from the Trooper’s punch, unlike last time when he did so out of spite.
“That’s dirty!” Nina yelled to her captor for using her against her friends.
Wally stepped forward and confronted the First Trooper. From his safe position, Agent Feller spoke to him through the Trooper, “You’re making a big mistake, young man. You’re tampering with forces beyond your knowledge.”
“Thankfully, I love to learn.” Wally swung his whip into the air and called out, “D. Evil!”
Flying through the air, D. Evil caught the end of the whip and swung Wally through the air.
Wally kicked the First Trooper to the ground, causing it release Nina.
The two kids tumbled through the air. But before they could hit the ground, they were surrounded with dark energy thanks to D. Evil and levitated safely to the ground.
Wally held Nina’s shoulders and frantically asked, “Are you okay, Nina?”
Shrugging her shoulders, Nina calmly answered, “Yeah, Wally, I’m fine. Those jerks don’t scare me.”
The First Trooper was standing back up as it spoke again, “You’re all making a big mistake.”
Whatever else it was going to say was cut off by D. Evil’s energy blast, shattering its single eye. Ollie and Rook approached the others just as D. Evil proceeded to finish First Trooper off by lifting it into the air with his demon strength.
“Some assembly required.” D. Evil taunted before smashing the Trooper to the ground in pieces.
“Wally. D. Evil.” Rook said with joy, “You have bested your opponent.”
D. Evil proudly responded, “Looks like you and Ollie didn’t do such bad job yourselves.”
Wally held his chin and said, “Though I can’t help but wonder where those things came from.”
“Who cares?” Nina shouted in excitement, “You guys did it! You saved me and you beat the bad guys! You really are the perfect team!”
She wrapped her arms around the four and pulled them in for a hug.
Despite the mysterious circumstances surrounding their victory, they started to feel proud of themselves, realizing that after working together, they managed to save the day.
Wally’s eyes glanced down at the pieces of the First Trooper that lied at his feet. Among the debris was the Trooper’s arm with an interdimensional portal watch attached to its wrist, not even scratched thanks to its indestructible exterior.
Wally snuck away from the group and pulled the watch off the arm, realizing that it was just like the other two he already had. He glanced over at the remains of the Second Trooper, and spotted another portal watch on its left wrist. Realizing that he had three extra watches in his possession, Wally smirked as he began to form an idea in his head.
In the other dimension, Professor Sanders solemnly announced, “I’ve lost contact with both Troopers now.”
Agent Feller removed the headset and threw it on the ground in a calm fit of rage. “I’m going to send orders to retrieve them. But before I do, show me the Trooper’s surveillance footage again.”
“What for, sir?” Professor Sanders asked.
“That’s an order.”

Chapter 14: The Fallout
With two Troopers in his backyard and remembering how violent they could be, Wally knew he would be in so much trouble if his parents woke up and saw this. If they found out his new team were from other dimensions and that he was being attacked by robots from other dimensions, who knew what they would do.
“Excuse me?” Wally sheepishly said as he cautiously approached the Troopers. “My parents are trying to sleep, so can you maybe come back in the morning?”
What Wally didn’t know was that the First Trooper’s mechanical eye was broadcasting an image of him all the way to a monitor that was being operated by Professor Sanders. Agent Feller was standing behind her, wearing a headset.
The First Trooper spoke to Wally in Agent Feller’s voice, “So, you are the one in possession of interdimensional portal technology and have been illegally dimension hopping.”
“Whoa, it talks now.” Nina said in surprise.
The First Trooper continued, “You will hand over the watch, and then you and the rest of these interlopers will come with us.”
Hearing this, Wally’s eyes widened in shock. Not only were the strange intimidating robots invading his dimension, but they wanted to take him and the watch somewhere. While the thought of seeing another new dimension did intrigue him, he did not feel comfortable accompanying the violent robots.
Wally moved his left arm containing the watch behind his back and responded, “No way. I can’t give you my watch.”
Ollie, Dean, Rook, and Nina come to Wally’s side and confront the Troopers.
“And I don’t see any reason why any of us should go with you.” Dean said.
Rook yelled to the Trooper, “You are not acting very nice!”
“So pfft to you!” Ollie shouted while blowing a raspberry.
Seeing that the kids were not going to come quietly, Agent Feller gave the signal to Professor Sanders. She typed on her computer and gave the orders for the Troopers to attack and apprehend the group.
Once they received the signal, the two Troopers lifted their arms out and slowly advanced towards the group. The four boys reacted in surprise as they realized the Troopers were not going to leave them be.
Hiding behind Wally, Nina whispered, “Something tells me they’re bad guys and it’s time for your first battle as a team. Think you can handle it?”
Wally took off his backpack and reached inside until he pulled out his trusty whip. “There’s two of those things and four of us, so I think if we-”
“Whoa, whoa, hold on there, nerd.” Ollie interrupted. “You’re not the leader of this team.”
Dean interjected, “Neither are you because I should be.”
Even Rook argued, “I believe I make a good leader.”
“Excuse me!” Wally yelled over them, “But I’ve already formulated a plan for victory.”
With the group distracted, the two Troopers advanced towards them, but Wally, Ollie, and Dean were too busy arguing with each other to notice.
“What, are you gonna take notes and study it?” Ollie asked Wally.
Like Wally, Dean also didn’t appreciate Ollie’s mockery and decided to dish out some of his own, “Are you gonna twirl around like a fairy princess and wave your wand?”
This pushed the wrong kinds of buttons for Ollie and he was ready to pounce on Dean. “Oh, that does it!” Ollie snarled.
“Guys! Watch out!” Nina warned them.
Since Wally, Dean, and Ollie were arguing, they were too distracted to notice that the First Trooper was about to strike them with its fist. However, it was suddenly pushed away from them by a large stream of water. They saw Rook standing by the pool with his hand held out while the glow of his tattoos dimmed down.
“Do not worry!” Rook enthusiastically shouted. “As leader, I shall protect my friends!”
He ran towards the Troopers, eager to prove himself as a born leader. But Ollie quickly realized his intent.
“Oh, no, you don’t!” Ollie angrily yelled at Rook, “I’m the leader!”
Ollie removed his brooch and it magically changed into his wand. Afterwards, he ran towards the Troopers in order to prove that he was the better choice for leader.
Not wanting to be outmatched, Dean held up his right hand and declared, “Watch how a real leader does it.”
Dean snapped his fingers and transformed into D. Evil.
Watching the whole scene, Wally narrowed his eyes in dismay.
Not even Nina approved of how everyone was behaving. She turned to Wally, hoping he could convince everyone to work together. “Wally, are you seriously gonna-”
But Wally was not even listening and only believed she was concerned that he won’t get the position of leader. “No way, Nina. I’m not gonna let them show me up.”
“That’s not what I-”
But rather than listen to her concerns, Wally ran off into battle. Nina groaned in annoyance.
In the lab, Agent Feller covered his microphone and stated, “We are experiencing some resistance. Prepare apprehension by force.”
Professor Sanders responded, “Yes, sir.”
She typed the orders on the computer, and they were transmitted to the Troopers.
The Second Trooper split apart from the first one to apprehend the some of the boys.
Rook confronted the approaching Trooper by levitating a stream of water that he shaped into an eel. He faced his adversary with eager determination.
“You are about to face...” Rook started to say until he became breathless and realized that the towel around his neck was no longer wet enough to help him breathe.
He was forced to use the water he was controlling to form a sphere of water around his head, giving him relief that he could breathe again.
Since Rook had no way to defend himself, the Second Trooper approached him and was prepared to strike Rook from behind. Ollie quickly moved in between them, deflecting the punch by holding out his wand.
As he held the Second Trooper back, Ollie said, “Step aside, Rook. A real leader doesn’t need Magical Girl magic to win a fight.”
With a yell, Ollie jumped forward and started hitting the Trooper with his wand since he refused to use magic, knowing that if the others saw him twirl around while waving his wand, they would never take him seriously as a leader.
But despite this preferred method, using the wand like a blunt object proved ineffective, and the Second Trooper nonchalantly smacked Ollie away.
Ollie flew across the yard until he crashed into Rook and they both fell to the ground. While Ollie ended up unconscious, this proved far worse for Rook because he lost his water helmet and was lying on the ground, gasping for breath.
Meanwhile, the First Trooper was attempting to grab Wally with its giant fists, but the boy dodged and rolled out of the way. D. Evil hovered in the air as he fired an energy blast at the Trooper, doing minimal damage. It suddenly grabbed D. Evil by the ankle and swung him across the yard. Seeing this, Wally smirked in pleasure, believing that it proved he was the efficient leader who could now finish off the robot himself.
“You are wasting your time, son.” The First Trooper spoke to Wally. “Surrender yourselves and I assure you that by tomorrow, all this will be nothing but a dream.”Wally paused for a second, wondering what the robot could possibly be talking about. But he quickly dismissed it as nonsense and scowled. “I’ve already dreamt enough about a discovery like this. I’m not gonna let you or anything else take it away from me.”
He swung his whip at the First Trooper and it wrapped around its ankle. Wally proceeded to yank on the whip to cause the Trooper to fall on its back. But this proved to be a struggle due to the Trooper’s large size and Wally couldn’t even get it to budge no matter how hard he pulled. The Trooper just stood there in place, watching him struggle, as if it were toying with him.
However, this did provide a distraction so that D. Evil could fly down and punch the Trooper in the face, sending it flying across the ground. But this unintentionally caused Wally to be yanked forward with it thanks to his whip still being attached to the First Trooper’s leg.
As they watched from the monitor, Agent Feller and Agent Sanders reacted in shock from their Trooper being taken down. In all their experience dealing with people who threatened to expose interdimensional travel, they have never met this much resistance.
The Second Trooper approached the defeated Ollie and Rook. When it tried to grab them, Nina quickly moved between them with her arms spread apart. “No!” she yelled out defiantly.
While she didn’t have any weapons or special abilities like Wally and rest of the team, she was prepared to defend her new friends.
Agent Feller spotted this action from camera connected to the Second Trooper and quickly formed an idea.
“I have a plan.” He announced.
D. Evil hovered above the fallen Trooper with a smirk of confidence, knowing he had just proven why he was the best choice to be made leader of the team.
As he sat on the ground, Wally glared at D. Evil, angered by what he did, believing it to be some form of sabotage for a chance to take the spot as leader.
But D. Evil did not notice and powered his hands with dark energy. “Time to blow your tin can into the next dimension.”
When he was about to fire the finishing blow to the First Trooper, Wally’s whip wrapped around his ankle and he was yanked onto the ground, slamming his face into the grass.
He looked back to see Wally with his arms crossed as he uncaringly said, “Whoops, sorry.”
Appalled by what Wally had just done, D. Evil confronted him. “Wally, what the heck?!”
Getting in each other’s face, Wally argued, “If you get to hinder my ability to lead, why shouldn’t I hinder yours?”
“Oh, I’ll give you a lead.” Dean threatened with his fist held up. “A five minute one.”
Before their fight could escalate, a scream was heard. They turned and reacted in shock when they saw the Second Trooper holding Nina while she struggled to get loose.
“Let go of me!” screamed Nina.
“Nina!” Wally cried out.
He and D. Evil were about to charge in and save her, but the First Trooper smacked both of them away. Wally landed against a tree, opening his eyes to see the Second Trooper hand over Nina to the First Trooper.
“I’m afraid if you’re not going to surrender, I will have to give you some incentive.” The First Trooper stated, “Once you’re ready, come to Sparkle Sity. I’ll be waiting there with your friend.”
A portal appeared, and the Troopers walked through it. Nina was carried into the portal as she screamed, “Wally!”
When the portal disappeared, Wally stood up and collapsed to his knees over losing his best friend.
“Nina…no.”

Hey, a while ago, they released a new patch for the game, which fixed some of the problems I had stated on my previous post. The new patch reduces the price for Mr. Krabs's golden spatulas, bringing it back down to the original game's price scaling of 500 per spatula. Also, the movie theater now shows concept art for the game.
Since my last post, I had played horde mode and can now give an opinion of it. While it was pretty cool fighting Robo-Squidward and playing as Gary and Squidward, it was also pretty underwhelming and I feeling there could've been more to it, like a storyline, dialogue, or some kind of reward at the end. So, I'd rather just stick to playing the single player mode.

Chapter 13: A Sleepover
Soon, the sun went down, and Nina walked with Wally and his new team through the neighborhood while the streetlights brightened the way. They were still pretty impressed with themselves after having beaten a robot that came out of an interdimensional portal.
“…and the way Rook trapped it with his magic water, and then D. Evil came down and pounded the heck out of it!” Nina shouted while punching and kicking the air, “HI-YA!”
“There’ll be a lot more ‘hi-yas’ in the future.” Dean said.
Looking confused, Rook asked, “What is a ‘Hiya’?”
Nina turned to Wally and said, “You were right, Wally. That watch is the greatest discovery you ever made. You brought back actual interdimensional heroes instead of weird rocks and clay pots this time.”
A dejected Wally responded, “I thought you liked all the rare undiscovered items I find.”
Nina crossed her arms and bluntly stated, “I don’t like watching you cut them up and examine what’s inside them.”
Unfortunately, the rest of the group heard them,
“Hey, you said there’d be no cutting involved!” Ollie yelled at Wally.
Rook screamed in panic. “Are we truly to be cut up?”
Dean simply shrugged. “I knew this was gonna happen to me someday.”
But Wally assured everyone, “Guys! I told you, I’m not planning on cutting anyone up. But I can’t deny that meeting you guys and learning about your dimensions has been an enriching experience, and I’m eager to learn more.”
Nina chimed in, “Which is all the more reason for you to form the perfect hero team.”
“It is a dream come true.” Rook said with a dreamy smile. “A dream that I did not know I had.”
But Dean stated, “You know, this has been fun and all, but don’t you think it’s time we all went back home?”
“Aww, do we have to?” Ollie complained.
As if he were Ollie’s age, Rook whined, “I too wish to stay longer rather than return home!”
But Dean remained positive and assured them, “Come on, guys. We all have to return home eventually. Besides, now that we’re a team, we can come back tomorrow thanks to Wally’s watch. Right, Wally?”
“Right you are, Dean.” Wally said with a wink. He looked at his watch and tapped the screen, but it did not turn on. “That’s odd. The battery must be dead.”
“Wow,” Dean said in dull surprise. “A watch that can create portals to other dimensions and it runs on batteries?”
Ollie frowned in annoyance and asked, “Do interdimensional watches come with interdimensional chargers?”
“Not that I know of.” Wally answered, but smiled when he remembered how he charged the watch last time. “But I do have a way to charge the watch. Follow me to my house.”
Upon reaching the Hewitt Residence, Wally rushed upstairs to his room while Nina brought everyone to the backyard to wait for him. He set his backpack on the bed and dug around inside.
“It’s gotta be in here somewhere.” Wally said as he searched his backpack until he finally pulled out the Power Charge Crystal. “Got it. Now I just need a way to use it without the sun.”
Wally wasn’t sure what to do since the sun wouldn’t come out for hours. He thought for a moment until he came up with an idea.
He ran over to a shelf and grabbed a flashlight. He returned to his backpack to put the crystal and flashlight inside.
However, Wally froze when he noticed something inside his backpack. He reached inside and pulled out the strapless interdimensional portal watch he found on the robot. He compared it to the one he wore on his wrist, which looked identical.
“This looks exactly like the portal watch.” Wally said before he tapped the watch’s screen and activated the holo-map. He gasped when he noticed that it was the exact same map he had on his watch.
Wally became excited as he concluded, “That’s because it IS a portal watch.” He turned off the map and became confused. “But who would imbed a portal watch into a robot?”
As he pondered the possibilities, his eyes widened in worry when he realized that the robot couldn’t have had the watch for no reason. “Could those robots be the true owners of the watch?”
Wally began to wonder if the watch and the robot that attacked him earlier could have come from some fifth dimension that wasn’t located on the map. He began to dread the thought of another robot coming and attacking him and his friends if they found out he took the extra watch.
“WALLY!” Paula called out from downstairs.
Wally panicked and ran over to his work desk. He opened a drawer and shoved the extra watch inside, deciding to keep it a secret in order to prevent anyone else from coming after them.
“Until I know for sure what’s going on here, no one can know about this.”
Wally ran downstairs and passed through the living room where he found Dale playing on the floor with his toys. When he noticed his older brother coming, Dale held out his hands and tried to get Wally to come over and play with him. “Wally!” Dale babbled.
“Sorry, Dale, can’t hang out right now.” Wally gently explained. “Got some big kid stuff to do.”
Wally noticed the backdoor open, so he assumed that everyone was already outside. He entered the backyard, but the moment he did, he heard, “Wally, there you are.”
Wally winced and noticed Paula standing there, having been waiting for him. “Where have you been all day?” she pointed to the rest of the group. “And who are they?”
“Hi, Mrs. Hewitt.” Nina cheerfully greeted.
Wally became awkward as he tried to think of a way to explain his new interdimensional friends without giving away that they were from other dimensions.
“Oh, well, you see, Mom, these are my new friends. I’ve been hanging out with them all day.”
“Did I hear correctly?” said Eric Hewitt, a man with thinning brown hair and brown eyes, as he entered the backyard and stood next to his wife. “Did our son actually bring home more than one friend? No offense, Nina.” He asked his son, “Tell me, where did you find these guys, Wally?”
Before Wally could think of an explanation, Ollie approached them and began explaining, “You’re not gonna believe it, but Wally here-” he was interrupted when Wally shoved him to the ground.
“We met at the park earlier today.” Wally quickly explained. “We’re part of an archeology club. You were right, Mom. I just needed to go out and make some friends, and I did.”
Nina, Dean, and Ollie gave odd stares at Wally’s explanation to hide the fact that he picked them up from different dimensions. While Wally’s parents were bemused that their son actually found three other people who shared his strange love of archeology, they smiled.
Paula hugged her son. “Oh, sweetie, I’m so happy for you.”
Eric added, “They sure don’t look like archeologists, but what do I know about that stuff?”
As they walked back into the house, Paula said, “You have fun with your friends, Wally. If they wanna stay the night, they’re more than welcome to.”
Wally waved to them. “Thanks, Mom.”
Dean chuckled in amusement. “Real smooth, Wally. You couldn’t just tell them the truth?”
Wally explained, “I’ve just been thinking recently, and maybe we should keep our interdimensional traveling a secret. You never know who else out there might want this.”Thinking he had to explain to them about his thoughts on the robot and its connection to the watch, Nina spoke, “If you mean more scary-looking robots that come out of portal, I say good point.”
Wally was glad that they all understood his concerns and agreed to keep it a secret, though his relief was short-lived when Ollie punched him in the arm as revenge for pushing him earlier.
“You could’ve at least said we were part of something cool.” Ollie complained.
“Archeology is cool.” Wally argued.
“Yeah, if you live in a dimension where magic doesn’t exist.”
Wally gave his own sarcastic retort, “You’re right. I suppose it’s not as cool as being a Magical Girl.”
“Huh?” Ollie gawked at the smirking Wally.
Scratching his head, Rook curiously asked, “What is ‘ar-key-aww-logy’?”
However, Dean chose to intervene, “Uh, guys? Maybe we should focus on what really matters, like Wally using his watch to get us home.”“Right.” An uninterested Ollie said. “What’s this ‘brilliant’ way to get your watch working, Hewitt?”
Wally brightened up and replied, “Glad you asked.”
He opened his backpack and pulled out the Power Charge Crystal, but to everyone else, it didn’t look like anything special.
Rook was the only one fascinated by it. “It is so pretty.”
“It is a rock.” an unimpressed Ollie imitated Rook.
Nina was just as unimpressed as Ollie. “The same rock you said was worthless when you found it?”
“I thought it was.” Wally explained with a proud smile. “Until I discovered that this power crystal is a solar power crystal.”
Frowning in dismay, Dean pointed out, “So, it only works when there’s sunlight?” he points upward. “Meaning the sun has to be out.”
Feeling the sun’s absence was to blame, Rook shook his fist and angrily grumbled, “Katapa ton shilo.”
Even though Dean was correct in pointing out that solar power only worked in the sun, Wally had already thought of everything. “Fear not!” he pulled the flashlight from his backpack. “I have already taken preparations for this.”
He set the watch on the ground and held the crystal over it. He held the flashlight in his other hand and shined the light through the crystal, letting the crystal illuminate over the watch. A few seconds passed, and the watch only seemed to gain a one percent charge.
Things became awkward as Ollie, Dean, Rook, and Nina shifted their glances from the watch onto Wally.
“Does it usually take this long?” an annoyed Dean asked.
Ollie walked away in a huff. “I knew you’d blow it.”
Wally became defensive and argued, “Guys, I swear this thing can charge the watch.”
Rook put a hand on Wally’s shoulder and tried to give him some sympathy. “I believe you, Wally.”
Dean sat on the ground and leaned against a tree. “Well, looks like we’re not going home, at least until morning.”
Wally began to feel bad for letting them down and preventing them from going back to their dimensions and to their families. “I’m sorry, guys.”
He turned away and realized that he technically could send them all home since he had an extra watch that was fully charged and had a map with all their dimensions on it, but was reluctant to tell them about it at the risk of putting them all in danger.
“Maybe I should use the extra watch.” Wally whispered to himself.
Before he could confess to everyone, Nina popped up behind and pulled him and Ollie together. “Come on, guys. It’s not so bad.” She cheerfully said. “This means we can have a sleepover.”
“Sleep…over?” Rook questioned since he had never heard the term before.
Thankfully, Nina came over to explain everything to him. “Oh, you’re gonna love it, Rook. There’s smores and everything.”
“Smores?” Rook asked before he smiled in excitement. “I love smores!” he paused and asked, “What is a smores?”
Dean shrugged and stood up. “I guess staying the night in another dimension could be cool. I mean, it’s not like we can all go home if that watch won’t be charged till morning.
“Not to mention this is the perfect time to discuss our new team.” Nina suggested.
Ollie carelessly shrugged and agreed, “Whatever keeps me from having to go back home and do Magical Girl stuff.”
“Sleepover smores!” Rook cheered, but coughed and gasped when he realized the hand towel around his neck was dry and he could no longer breathe. “Need more water.” He said in a raspy voice.
He removed the towel from his neck and jumped into the pool, splashing everyone, much to their annoyance.
“I’ll get my dad’s fire pit.” Wally announced.
Meanwhile, in the mysterious dimension, Agent Feller entered a room which contained the robot that had been destroyed by Wally and his new comrades. Inside the room was a woman in a lab coat with glasses and dark hair tied in a beehive.
“Professor Sanders, what happened here?” Agent Feller demanded to know.
Professor Sanders answered, “It was brought back like this from Dimension J-183. Its portal technology has been extracted as well.”
Subtle panic appeared over Agent Feller’s face. “How is this possible?” he asked, “Who could’ve possibly been able to overpower a Trooper?”
Professor Sanders walked over to a laptop that was connected to the Trooper’s single eye. “It might interest you to know that the Trooper did capture some very interesting images during its final moments.”
Agent Feller came over to the laptop and viewed the screen, which flipped through still images of Ollie pointing his wand, Rook being lifted by a vortex of water, and D. Evil diving down towards the screen.
Raising an eyebrow in confusion, Agent Feller asked, “Who are those boys?”
He was baffled that a group of children defeated one of their robots specifically designed to remove any anomalies present in one of the dimensions.
The screen shifted to a still image of Wally hanging from a tree branch by his whip. Suddenly, Agent Feller’s eyes widened behind his shades. “Zoom in on that image.”
Professor Sanders used her laptop to zoom in on the image of Wally. This helped them notice that on Wally’s left wrist was the interdimensional portal watch.
“The watch!” Agent Feller exclaimed, “That boy has the missing watch!”
“Could it be possible that he also has the Trooper’s watch?” the professor wondered.
Realizing that the signals coming from the other dimensions were the result of Wally traveling from one dimension to another, and that he had brought beings from other dimensions to his own. It became clear that immediate action had to be taken.
Agent Feller turned to Professor Sanders, “Prepare two more Troopers for interdimensional transport while I send for Agent Muldoon to track the stolen watch’s current location. And set up your camera and microphone.” Narrowing his eyes behind his shades, he darkly added, “I need to speak with them myself.”
Wally had brought out the fire pit that he used to light a campfire for everyone to sit around. Wally, Ollie, Dean, and Nina roasted marshmallows while Rook gorged on them straight out of the bag. They also decided to tell Nina about themselves since she wasn’t around to see their dimensions.
“…and that’s how I discovered my demon powers.” Dean finished explaining.
“Wow!” Nina shouted, amazed by the story. “But how is it that you were born a half-demon? Did your parents perform some sort of ancient demon ritual to give you powers like your dad?”
Dean knew that wasn’t true, but since the real story was most likely not age appropriate, Dean just agreed, “Y-Yeah. That’s totally how it happened.”
Ollie said, “I wouldn’t mind having parents like that. Just because I inherited a rare magical gene from my mom, it means I have to go out and be a Magical Girl just like she did as a kid. Well, I have better things to do than fight monsters with a dumb girly wand.”
“Oh, yeah?” Wally slyly asked. “Like what?”
“Umm…” Ollie hesitated before he answered, “Like finishing up all my video games.”
Wally didn’t completely buy Ollie’s excuse, but chose not to press for more detail.
Nina was just impressed by how interesting their lives were while living in different dimensions. “You guys are so amazing.” She then turned to the only one who hadn’t told his story yet. “What about you, Rook? What’s your dimension like?”
“That’s right.” Dean said with interest. “We never got the chance to see it.”
On cue, Wally took out his pen and notepad. “Give as much detail as you can.”
Ollie dully frowned and remarked, “And here’s the return of the dorkeologist.”
While trying to eat a chocolate bar with the wrapper still on, Rook stopped once he noticed everyone staring at him and quickly composed himself before answering Nina’s question. “It is under the ocean, which has many things I enjoy. Such as…” before he could continue, he felt the towel around his neck dry up again and he could not breathe once again, to the point where he coughed out the word, “Water!”
Rook quickly removed the dry hand towel and jumped into the pool, splashing everyone and dousing the fire.
Dean was especially annoyed by this as he tossed away a smoggy smore. “I guess that’s a sign we should turn in.”
An equally annoyed Ollie agreed, “You read my mind, Dean.”
But Nina wasn’t ready for all of them to go to sleep just yet. “Hey, what’s the rush? Don’t forget, since you guys are a team now, you still need a team name.” she started to try and think of a name. “But what?”
Hearing this, Rook splashed out of the pool and wrapped the newly wet towel around his neck. He raised his hand and shouted, “Ooh, ooh. How about ‘Oi Kaloi Kioles’?” There was a beat of silence since no one understood the meaning behind Rook’s Atlantean name for them. “It is Atlantean for ‘The Good Friends’.”
With an amused smile, Dean suggested, “Err, maybe something that’s a little easier to pronounce.” His face lit up when he came up with an idea, “Oh, how about ‘The Avenging Squad’?”
But Ollie shook his head in disagreement. “Nah, let’s go with ‘The League of Awesomeness’.”
Wally then spoke up, “You know, maybe we should hold off the team name for now and decide who should be team leader.”
Wally gained a smug smile as he gestured to himself and declared, “Of course, since I was the one who brought us all together and I have the watch that allows us to travel to each other’s dimensions, I’m sure that responsibility should fall on-”
“No way!” Ollie sprung up in his face. “Why should you get to be leader? I’m the one who can do real magic!”
Wally retorted, “Magic you don’t even wanna do!”
Despite how true this was, Ollie continued to argue with Wally, “What are you gonna do? Bore everyone with facts about dinosaurs?”
“That’s a paleontologist, you ignoramus! I’m an archeologist!”
Before their fight could escalate any further, Dean moved between the two and pushed Wally and Ollie away from each other. “Guys, guys, knock it off.”
Once Wally and Ollie ceased their quarreling, Dean informed them, “You’re forgetting that I’m the only one here with any experience fighting crime.” He turned almost as smug as Wally previously was and pointed to himself. “So, if anyone should be leader, it should be me.”
Ollie could not believe that even Dean was throwing his hat into the ring to be leader of their new team. Wally was in disbelief as well since even though Dean had actual experience at being a superhero, what did he know about being a leader?
“Are you kidding?” Ollie furiously asked.
Wally grumbled, “Yeah, right.”
Listening to their argument, Rook interjected, “I think I can be a good leader. After all, I am the eldest and have the most wisdom.”
But his humble statement went unheeded as the three broke out into an argument. Dean stated the obviousness of him being a superhero with actual superpowers, Wally claimed that he was the perfect candidate with him having already been on tons of adventures, and Ollie refused to listen to either of them because he believed that he could do a better job at being leader.
As the three continued to argue over each other, Rook narrowed his eyes in anger at being ignored by the others and them not even considering that he had the potential to be leader of their new team. Rather than try and stop them, he decided to join in on the arguing.
Rook shouted over them in Atlantean that he could be a skilled and fun leader while leading them to victory, Wally reminded everyone that he was the one who brought them here with his watch and therefore deserved to be leader, Ollie claimed that he would be good at being leader since he fought monsters all the time, and Dean continued to insist that he had experience unlike the rest of them and they weren’t even real superheroes.
Watching the whole argument was Nina, who gritted her teeth in dread since they were fighting over the team that she suggested and couldn’t help but feel responsible.
“What have I done?”
Their arguing was stopped when two portals appeared in the backyard and a Trooper emerged from each one. The group gasped in shock and immediately noticed that they looked just like the robot they fought earlier.
“It’s that robot again.” Ollie pointed out.
Narrowing his eyes, Dean added, “And it looks like it brought a friend.”

Chapter 12: The Unexplained Visitor
Racing against the clock before Rook completely lost his ability to breathe; Wally came up with a plan to use the water in the fish tanks for Rook to use his powers to form a water helmet around his head until they can get him into a large source of water.
Ollie held the door, and D. Evil quietly used his powers to telekinetically cause a few items behind the counter to fall off the shelf, distracting the clerk to pick them up.
Once it was clear, Wally gave Rook a nod, which Rook returned before holding out his hands while his tattoos glowed. The water in the fish tanks began to lift in the air with all the fish safely swimming inside. The water flew out of the shop and formed a sphere around Rook’s head, allowing him to breathe as well as have the company of the fish inside.
With their plan successful, the four proceeded to walk all the way to the park. They honestly weren’t sure how long Rook could hold that orb of water around his head, but Rook did not seem to be showing any signs of exhaustion and was smiling and laughing at all the fish swimming around his face.
When they finally made it, the park was completely empty due to how late it in the evening it was. The three led Rook through the park until they approached the lake.
“We made it.” Wally announced.
Rook tranquilly smiled as he stepped into the lake and sank to the bottom. Wally, Ollie, and D. Evil peered over the edge, but were unable to see anything in the water. Rook surfaced from inside the lake while levitating a small sphere of water in his hand, which contained a fish from the pet store that he released back into the lake.
Wally tossed the hand towel into the lake, which Rook grabbed and wrapped around his neck. With a freshly wet towel covering his gills, Rook stepped out of the lake.
“How’re you feeling now, Rook?” D. Evil asked.
Laughing with excitement, Rook jumped up and down. “Thank you! Thank you! Wally, Ollie, D. Evil, thank you for all that you have done!” he shouted with joy before wrapping his arms around Wally, Ollie, and D. Evil, pulling the three in a tight hug. “Kioles.”
The three were discomforted by Rook hugging them, but also confused by what he had said in Atlantean.
“What does that mean?” Ollie asked Rook.
“Friends.” Rook answered, still hugging them.
Wally, Ollie, and D. Evil were momentarily stunned that Rook had now thought of them as his friends. But they soon smiled at each other, realizing that after having spent the whole day together and helping each other out, that did make them friends now.
However, this tender moment was disrupted by a loud cry of, “WALLY HEWITT!!!”
The four reacted in surprise and looked straight ahead to see a furious Nina.
“Nina!” Wally cried in surprise as he broke away from the group.
Nina marched over to Wally. “Where the heck have you been all day?” she demanded to know.
“Nina, I can explain.” Wally insisted until Nina shoved his notepad into his chest, causing him to realize that Nina had looked through it and now knew everything he had done today.
“Explain what?” Nina furiously asked, “That you got your watch working, made friends with interdimensional freaks, and you didn’t tell me about it?”
Ollie casually pointed at Dean and Rook. “These guys aren’t freaks that much.”
D. Evil and Rook did not appreciate the comment, especially since she was referring to him in the same manner.
Wally was caught in the moment, glancing back and forth between his best friend and new friends.
With a defeated sigh, Wally said, “Nina, I’d like you to meet Ollie, D. Evil, and Rook.”
Nina looked at the strange group with both interest and suspicion.
Ollie looked bored, but gave her a small wave. “Sup.”
Looking shy behind his mask, D. Evil awkwardly waved while greeting, “Hi.”
Rook had a large smile on his face, and he gave the most enthusiastic wave as he greeted Nina, “Chairet!”
Seeing the group that Wally had brought back with him on his adventure, Nina’s anger disappeared and was replaced with a look of excitement as she shrieked in delight.
“What are you planning to do with them, Wally?” she asked, “Observe them? Cut them open and examine their insides?”
Ollie, D. Evil, and Rook reacted with shock and horror upon hearing this. Since meeting him, Wally had been persistent on observing everything they did so he could learn about their dimensions, but was he really so obsessed with learning that he would be willing to dissect them like frogs?
“No, no.” Wally wanted to assure them that he wasn’t planning to harm or keep them like lab rats. “Actually, I-”
Suddenly, a large portal identical to the one Wally’s watch could create, appeared straight ahead of them.
From out of the portal came a large robot with a single glowing red eye. The five kids stared in shock, wondering what that robot was and where it came from.
Once the robot set its target on Wally’s interdimensional portal watch, its single eye glowed brightly and it moved towards the group at fast speed.
“Look out!” D. Evil shouted as he quickly shrouded everyone with dark energy and threw them in different directions while levitating himself into the air, causing the robot’s attack to miss everyone.
Wally and Ollie sat up from the ground, and the latter asked, “Wally, what is that thing?”
“I don’t know.” Wally answered.
“I thought Cullertown was supposed to be boring.”
“It usually is!”
While the two argued, the robot turned around and spotted the watch around Wally’s wrist. Once its target was in sight, it proceeded to advance towards Wally and Ollie.
Seeing her best friend in danger as the robot closed in on Wally and Ollie, Nina stood up and cried, “Wally!”
But Wally did not appear worried at all. Instead, he calmly reached into his backpack and pulled out his whip, which he wrapped around a high tree branch. He quickly pulled Ollie close and swung them both through the air, going over the robot’s head. As he came back down, Wally stuck his legs out and kicked the robot in the back, pushing it forward.
As they hung from the branch, Ollie removed his brooch and it magically transformed into his wand. Ollie dropped out of Wally’s grasp and twirled through the air. Upon landing, he posed while pointing his wand at the robot.
“SPARKLE GLITTER BLAST!” Ollie shouted, firing a blast of sparkling magic from his wand, knocking it onto the ground.Seeing the progress being made, Wally smirked with an idea. He shouted, “Rook! Grab it!”
Having been hiding below the lake, Rook surfaced his head from underwater upon hearing Wally’s orders. He narrowed his eyes, and a large vortex of water lifted Rook out of the lake. Rook motioned his arms and lifted a stream of water from the lake, which took the form of a giant hand. Motioning his own right hand, the giant water hand moved at fast speed and grabbed the Trooper.
“D. Evil!” Wally called out, “Help bring it down!”
Hovering above the trapped robot, D. Evil powered dark energy in his fist. “Rook’s already given you a hand, so how about I give you a FIST?”
He dived downward and slammed the robot onto the ground, creating a large dust cloud.
Wally, Ollie, Nina, and Rook approached as the dust disappeared. Wally held out his whip, Ollie pointed his wand, Rook levitated a small stream of water above his head, and D. Evil floated above the damaged robot. Its blinking eye finally powered off.
A look of relief appeared on Wally’s face. “Phew, that was close.”
“That was AWESOME!” Nina shouted in excitement, “You guys were, like, the perfect team! You were totally in synch with each other!”
As he got over what just happened, even Ollie had to admit that he and the others worked well together, “Huh...I guess we were.”
Smiling widely, Rook said, “This was the most fun part of the day.”
Wally thought it over as well and recalled that he had fought alongside Ollie and D. Evil in each of their dimensions. But it wasn’t until this recent battle that he realized how well they all worked together. “Hmmm...I have to admit, I have enjoyed fighting alongside you guys.”
D. Evil landed in front of the robot and removed its head like a hatch. D. Evil’s eyes widened at what he saw. “Well, this is unexpected.”
Wally, Ollie, Nina, and Rook approached from behind and peered inside the robot, seeing that it was full of blinking lights, electrical dials, and buttons, but no one piloting it.
“Isn’t there supposed to be someone inside this thing?” Nina asked.
Wally assumed, “Perhaps it was being remotely operated.”
“But remotely operated by who?” D. Evil asked.
“It came out of a portal just like Rook.” Ollie said, “It could be someone from another dimension.”
Rook gasped in shock and asked, “There are more dimensions?”
Wally activated the watch and turned on the holo-map in order to verify if there were dimensions other than the four they each came from. But to his dismay, he didn’t find any other marks on the map. “The only dimensions I see are the four we each come from.”
“Could that mean the robot came from one of our dimensions?” D. Evil wondered.
Ollie smiled at the thought of this. “Cool. I hope it was mine.”
But Rook started to panic, believing that if there was one robot, then there could be more coming. “They came here and they attempted to attack us.” He paced back and forth. “What are we to do?”While the four speculated and panicked over what just happened, Nina calmly walked into the middle of the group and announced, “Boys, boys, boys. I think there’s only one simple explanation to all this.”
When it seemed like she wasn’t going to follow up with anything, a mildly annoyed Wally asked, “And that explanation would be?”
“I was pausing for dramatic effect.” Nina hissed at him.
She regained her composure and continued her speech, “It would seem that something out there is threatening all of our dimensions. Obviously, fate has brought the four of you together for me to form a team comprised of one member from each dimension and assign you all to protect them from whatever evil is lurking about. With the way you guys handled that evil robot just now, I say it’s clear that you are the perfect team to keep all of our dimensions safe. So, are you in?”
Wally shook his head, amused by her wild assumption. “Nina, I highly doubt that-”
But he was cut off when Rook screamed with joy. “You mean we get to spend more time together...as friends?” he jumped up and down, raising his hand up while shouting, “I want to join!”
Even D. Evil seemed taken with the idea. “I did wanna be a superhero and help as many people as I can with my powers, so being part of a team could be good for my rep. Count me in.”
Ollie grinned, liking the idea as well. “If I get to see more of these cool other dimensions and get to hang out with guys and not do lame Magical Girl stuff, I’m in too.”
Everyone turned to the only one who hasn’t given his answer: Wally.
“Well, Wally?” Nina eagerly asked, “What’d ya say?”
As they awaited his response, Wally thought it over to himself. When he started exploring the dimensions, he never imagined meeting anyone there that he would form a team with. But he realized that if he were on a team with people from other dimensions, he could learn things no other archeologist would ever learn and he would be the first to discover them, so he knew this was one opportunity he should not pass up.
Finally, he gave his answer, “I suppose this could benefit my research on interdimensional travel, so I say yes.”
With the votes unanimous, Nina, Ollie, Rook, and D. Evil cheered and started to leave the park, ready to do whatever needed to be done to start forming their new team. Wally, however, lagged behind and looked back at the robot they just destroyed.
He rushed towards it and his eyes widened when he noticed an interdimensional portal watch just like his own embedded on its left wrist. Wally kneeled towards the robot and grabbed hold of the watch, pulling it out of its body. He noticed that the watch didn’t have a strap like his own.
Making sure no one was watching him, Wally took off his backpack and discreetly stuck the second watch inside. He quickly put the backpack on and rushed off to join the others, not saying a word about what he just discovered.
