1. Z-Storm Origins (Part 1 of 3)

There was a ship out in the seven seas; the location was from parts unknown. The ship was still cruising around the border. From above was a mysterious, metallic figure. It soared through the horizons and sees the cruise line. The mysterious object blasted the ship, making it sink. Most of the passengers evacuated immediately. Furthermore, some people were left behind. The metal flying object left the scene. The scene immediately switched to three guys at a local restaurant.

They were known as Strezz, Bruce, and Monique. 

“I can’t believe this, The Steel 200 sank last night, No one knows whoever, whatever, caused this crime,” Bruce said, he was reading a newspaper article about it.

“Yeah, and I’m not seeing how I care….” Monique said.

“Me neither, but let’s face it, do any of you have any spectacle plans for our summer vacation?” Bruce asked.

“Well, I do have a plan on escaping this city,” Strezz thought.

”Tell me! What’s your idea?” Bruce said impatiently. “Wait a minute, what’s wrong with this place? We’re doing fine and-“

“It’s losing its luster, I’ll give you that,” said Strezz, “It’s just that we’ve been here for years and right now, it’s becoming more of a drag, you know, in my eyes.”

“Then what plan did you come up with concerning this place?” Monique questioned.

”Okay, I’ll tell you,” Strezz thought for another moment,” what if I said, I won that radio contest for a trip to Seaside Springs, and I have three tickets to it?”

”Shut up! You have three tickets to a special resort?!” Monique was surprised to hear that. “How was that even possible?”

“I simply just entered the contest and got lucky, and that resort was just divine. Yeah, so we better start packing, you’d know the drill,” after that, Strezz left the restaurant.

“Bruce, I’m curious, do you have a map containing such a place?” Monique asked.

“Well, the map I have is in that Mercedes Boatz my parents have,” Bruce answered.

”Okay then, see you at the presses,” with that, Monique did the same.

”Does anybody say good-bye anymore?” Bruce said to himself.

The scene was now at Strezz’s room, he was alone with three tickets to Seaside Springs. Then Strezz’s cousin came in.

“Hey Strezz, what are you up to?” Cousin Ben asked.

”Sophisticatedly nothing to do with you, Ben,” Strezz replied.

”Nothing to do with me? Well, you didn’t tell me you had free getaway trip tickets, smart for you to not negotiate to me about this,” said Ben.

“And of course, I didn’t even discuss the fact that me and my friends are escaping the city to go Seaside Springs, replied Strezz.

“You can’t do that!”

”Actually I can, because you’re lazy and you need a job,” Strezz replied, “Speaking of that, I want to see if you can rely on your responsibilities with Gavin,” Strezz continued and gave him baby Gavin.

“So I’m the household guy?” Ben asked himself. “But you can’t leave me here with Gavin.”

“I can, I don’t know why I can actually be related to you, but you can call me a castaway right?” Strezz continued. “Not a word I’m looking for though and we’re not in the same species chart, for your information. So I have an eye on you when I visit someday.”

”Whatever you say…”

”Whatever you say? I can’t let you off the hook that easy, just get a job! The reason why I’ve been getting some allowance at the Inside-N-Outside burger joint is because of Monique’s cousin’s hourly raise, and I’m lucky I have a friend who lives with someone to be trusted and to have a job, also in generosity.” Strezz continued. “Bye now.”

With that, Strezz left the house, and ran to Bruce and Monique’s street corner. Bruce was already there.

”Bruce, where’s Moe?” Strezz asked.

“Still packing,” Bruce answered. Minutes later, it was done.

”Alright guys, I just want to say this: I give gratitude for letting me on this trip,” Monique said.

“But you don’t thank us for anything, except this summer vacation we’re planning,” Bruce said to Monique. “I don’t know why you’re so willful for this vacation anyways.”

”Well that’s because of that honor student Zowe, she makes me so jealous and plans the most precious trips in the entire Poseidon Middle School student body,” Monique replied.

“Maybe, Bruce.”

”Plus, you guys wouldn’t believe this but, you remember what I said about escaping this rat-hole?” Strezz said. “No matter what, our trip to Seaside Springs will be our home.”

“That’s amazing!” Bruce commented.

“Of course it will be, and for the fact that we’re many steps closer to High School,” said Monique. “But let’s get going, my cousin is waiting for us.”

The scene switches to Monique’s street and inside the cousin’s van. They drove for hours and Monique’s cousin dropped off the three at a nearest hotel. Then the scene abruptly goes to a mysterious setting, it was an evil lair.

“Alright gentlemen, now that we’ve cleaned off that ship, it’s time to confess the major part of this plot,” said Seymour. “The inventory hasn’t been destroyed, but we should know that the cargo has held for us a weather machine.”

“What is it for?” One of his henchmen said.

“We’re going to use it to create a blockade around the entire island, it may trap us, but we have access outside this domain. And we’re going to use it to trap the chosen wielder of Z-Storm,” Seymour continued.

“Tell us more,” one of his henchmen said.

“The creator of this fellow machine is none other one of CORE-al’s finest inventors, and I trapped a duo for my collection of captives, but that will slow him down once he realizes a heavy storm is coming up.” He continued.

“So what does capturing these two have to do with our plan?” One of his henchmen asked.

“That is…not important right now. What’s important is that we make sure the connection to the Z-Storm family is seized, when somebody gullible enough finds its trinket. We’ll eventually rise until our Turbulent Metal Dragons movement takes over…but not the entire world, we’re not going for that. Now here’s the rest of the plan...”

The scene then comes back to the hotel area.

“Thanks for the lift,” Monique said over the street.

“Okay, so we have to arrive at Seaside Springs by train, the next train arrives in three hours,” Bruce noted.

”Whatever, I don’t like anticipation, it’s such a suspense killer,” said Monique.

“On the bright side, we’re at a fun spot, and at this rate, Seaside Springs is so much better than that crappy city we’ve been living in for years, so let the fun begin!” Strezz convinced.

”Before we goof off, we need plans on our new home at Seaside,” Monique referred. “First off, we need to count our allowance, I have 350 shiny pearls.”

“290,” said Bruce.

“230, that’s all I have,” said Strezz. “And at this rate, I’m spending this stuff on a dream board,” he continued.

“And so it costs 120 shiny pearls, and at this rate, you’ll only have 110,” Monique referred. “Second off, we need to plan on jobs, since Ben is a lazy sack otherwise.”

“It looks like you’ve been reading my mind. In that case, what is your plan on a job Moe?” Strezz asked.

“Smoothie shop, Seaside’s specialty business,” Monique answered. “You and Bruce think about yours,” she added. “Lastly, let’s see what we have for our salvages.”

Bruce opened his suitcase, 1/3 of his had food, and then there were a few water bottles, an umbrella, gummy snails, and Z-Storm comics.

”Z-Storm comic books?” Monique wondered.

”Oh Moe, I shall prevail, the legends of Z-Storm shall truly exist,” Bruce said.

Strezz opened his case, 1/3 of his had food of course, a surfboard, another umbrella, water bottles, and a cell phone. Then Monique’s opened same food portions, few water bottles, a video camera, a camera, an umbrella, and a cell phone.

“This should be enough, now let the excitement begin!” Monique called out. Three of them were at the poolside. Monique was tanning and she eventually sees Zowe.

“Zowe, obviously an odd coincidence,” said Monique.

”Sure, whatever, but I just want to say that you’ve outdone yourself on planning a trip like this,” Zowe replied.

“I don’t care,” Monique replied back.

“Well, your friends are doing fine as well and maybe especially that Strezz guy.”

”So let’s get this straight, you like Strezz, right?” Monique asked curiously.

“Oh sure, Strezz is a fine guy, but I have to leave right now, but remember, the main attraction I want is Strezz,” after that, Zowe left the poolside.

Bruce was having fun swimming around the pool as usual, meanwhile, Strezz got the new board with the partial allowance he had. Then time passed by and it was 2 hours after. The train was almost ready to arrive.

”Pretty much, two trains are going to arrive at this station, which one is our main destination?” Monique asked Bruce.

“We take the one at south,” Bruce answered while looking at the map, unaware that it was upside-down. The two trains finally arrived at the station, and three took the one at the south, which is frankly the wrong road.

“At this rate, we’ll be at Seaside Springs in no time,” said Monique.

”Yeah, we’re living the dream,” Bruce replied.

Strezz looked out of the window, and saw something mysterious going 40 miles per hour. And part of the window crashed and the mysterious figure happened to be the demolisher of the cruise line days ago.

”You have it! Don’t you?” The mysterious guy asked.

”What are you talking about? I have nothing to do….well on the other hand, just unveil yourself!” Said Strezz, he was gripped from the metal figure and is on the plains from the horizon of the train. The metal figure was revealed.

”You obviously have no idea, however, the name is Seymour,” he introduced, “and don’t wear it out either!” He stilled gripped on Strezz. “I’m here for my revenge; I know you’re the next possession of Z-Storm’s natural abilities!”

”Did you say Z-Storm? Bruce talked about it. Honestly, I have nothing to do with the possession of Z-Storm, and I don’t know why you’re after me.” Strezz explained. “Blind search Seymour, whoever you are?”

“Hmmm, someone had the possession of Z-Storm, but that doesn’t matter anymore, cuz’ I have the feeling you’re next, and you’re the right guy for me to take revenge on,” Seymour continued.

”Well, I did nothing. If it’s a fight you want, then go ahead!” Strezz called out.

The unofficial fight was commenced. Strezz didn’t do anything but run. Seymour got on his metallic object and grabbed Strezz and threw him onto a non-electric wire. Strezz jumped to see what chance he has to demolish Seymour, but Seymour flew and threw Strezz flat on the ground. The metallic figure’s hand glowed fire, Strezz got out of the clutches and jumped somewhere and then jumped again to reach for the head, and got the helmet off. Strezz is now surrounded in fire. Strezz got on the wire once again and tried to think of a tactic, but unfortunately, Seymour crushed it, and Strezz landed in the non-burned area. It now cuts to some scenes where the electricity goes out. Strezz just ran now, but Seymour once again gets Strezz trapped. Strezz was done for, until the train hit Seymour. Strezz looked at the crushed armor of Seymour.

“……He’s dead,” Strezz thought.

“I’m not dead,” said Seymour. “But you ravaged my shield, but I’ll be back,” Seymour left the scene. Strezz manages to get back on the train.

“So, there he was, he said his name was Seymour,” Strezz explained. “Things were starting to get strange back there.”

“Whatever, at least we’re not one of him,” Monique replied.

“What could be as atrocious as that is the fact that Chelsea dumped me,” said Bruce.

“Chelsea is it? Well, everybody doesn’t really like her, and please don’t change the subject,” said Monique. “On another unrelated note, Zowe showed up and said something about you Strezz.”

”Are you sure? Zowe barely says anything about us,” Strezz replied.

”Well, Zowe is hiding something and I can see to it,” Monique said.

Finally, the train stops at a beach somewhere, but it isn’t Seaside Springs at all, it was a different beach, and it was foggy the few minutes after they stepped out, Strezz and co. are unaware that they are in the wrong location, by the fact that their map was upside-down.
----------------------------
NOTES/TRIVIA:

Differences:
Instead of Loud K., Seymour and the others are known to be Turbulent Metal Dragons
Zech Tech is renamed as "CORE-al."
Little more detail is given about the contest.
Of course, I could have at least give biological detail about the OC's, but you all know I'm too lazy to do that.

1. Z-Storm Origins (Part 2 of 3)

“Hello Seaside Springs!” Monique shouted out when she got off the train. Unfortunately, the place looked nothing like Seaside Spring. She then saw a sign saying Shellside Shores. “Bruce! Please tell me this is the right stop,” she called out. Bruce got off the train.

“Hmm, that’s funny, that sign says Shellside Shores,” Bruce said, and then remarked, “Don’t freak but, I think I turned the map upside down for some reason,” Bruce then flipped it into the right position.

”You dumbass! We’re in the wrong beach! It’s not Seaside Springs, but Shellside Shores, oh please!” Monique held Bruce to the train wall.

“Moe, you got some temper in yourself.” Strezz said.

“Well yeah, and it’s obvious we’re stranded in a beach no one’s inhabited in,” said Monique.

”Uh, we’re inhabitants Moe, and we’re right here,” Bruce pointed out.

”You don’t get it; remember what happened yesterday, the shipwreck incident?” Monique hinted.

“Wait, aw nuts, we’re in hell! How are we going to live like this?” Bruce panicked.

“Well this is just great, I want to go home, well in the Seaside Springs term kind of way,” Monique said.

“This is home,” Strezz pointed out.

“What’s that suppose to mean, it’s not like we’re going to be stuck here with survival skills, less people, and of course, this place is pretty nifty,” Monique replied.

”Just our luck: our ride just left,” Strezz answered. We see the train leaving the beach, and then Monique throws her case angrily.

“No need to panic, we always know what comes next, we need skills,” said Strezz.

“Skill you say? We barely have skill. All I can say is that the island’s air smells rancid and the weather is very paranormal. If it’s a beach, why is it so cloudy?” Monique wondered.

“Simply, one of us has to find food, built shelter, and put up a fire,” said Strezz,

“I have an idea, you build a shelter, find food, while Bruce and I make a fire,” Monique replied.

”Oh God, how come I have to be treated like work?” Strezz wondered to himself.

”And I don’t know why I’m on Moe’s side,” Bruce and Monique then left the area to find wood.

”Well this is just great, we don’t have anything to build a fire,” said Monique after they found some wood.

“Well, my parents always said, two sticks can do the trick,” Bruce replied and rubbed two sticks on the firewood pattern, nothing happen.

“Hmm, how about you build shelter while I do the fire,” Monique said. Bruce didn’t care.

Bruce was later building shelter, it was a pineapple.

“Uh Bruce, isn’t that a little too last season?” Strezz asked.

”What, do you expect us to live in a kumquat?” Bruce replied. “It doesn’t feel like home, right?”

“Obviously, it doesn’t. I found some food alright, I’ll re-model our house while you and Moe continue the other two objectives,” said Strezz. Bruce went back to where Monique was with the firewood.

While Strezz was rebuilding, something fell from the sky, which looked like a jacket. Also, Strezz was done building shelter, and then he notices the jacket that landed on the ground.

“Hmm, a piece offering, I’ll worry about it later,” Strezz then left the scene. And it was now at the waves. Strezz brings out his trusty new surfboard.

“How come I don’t get breaks?” Bruce asked Monique.

“No idea, I would love to have one, but we don’t want Strezz to see our slacking, keep kindling!” Monique ordered.

“But Strezz seems to be slacking, just look around,” said Bruce.

“Forget the fun is trying to have, I think I see something…” said Monique, trying to examine.

Strezz was now out there in the surf, with his board, performing a bunch of mind blowing tricks, Strezz was now ready for another one until something came for the unexpected.

“Look out!” Someone from above said out loud. Strezz bumped into that person and caused a wipeout. Monique and Bruce noticed it.

“Uh, what just happened?” Strezz thought and saw that one girl. He was surprised.

“G’day Strezz,” the person called out.

”Oh no, it’s you, isn’t it?” Strezz asked.

“Of course it is, your old friend Shazza,” she said.

“Okay, pretty much it’s good news we found someone, but she nuts for someone who knew Strezz,” Monique thought.

“Pretty interesting story, Shazza as one of my old classmates years ago, and you two haven’t found out, I was able to escape from her, since I haven’t seen her until this day, but I close to trying to transfer to another school.” Strezz explained. “Well it’s nice to see you again Shazza, and I doubt that you know Bruce and Monique,” he greeted.

”For someone we don’t know and what Strezz knows, how did you end up here? We must be lucky that we found someone like you,” asked Bruce.

“Well, I’ve been stuck here for two years now, this is where I decided to live, but it’s abandoned now, and I don’t care,” Shazza explained. “However, I’m unfamiliar with this cloudy weather.”

“Okay then Shazza, I guess this means that you have a house around here,” said Monique.

“Sure do, I’ll show you around that jungle,” Shazza replied.

Moments later they have arrived at the hut Shazza lives. Strezz and friends went inside.

“Shazza, you have arrived,” someone said.

“G’day again Sal, we have a couple of friends here, they’re friends of Strezz,” Shazza replied.

”Okay, now who the heck is this guy? No kidding,” asked Strezz.

“While you guys were having fun before you got stranded here as usual, I got myself a friend named Sal, and then we eventually decided to live here together. I heard that he’s a Shaman,” Shazza explained.

“Weirder beyond reason, not buying your hospitality,” said Monique.

“Whatever, but you three are still welcome to stay,” Sal added.

“Yeah, you’re welcome,” Monique continued. “Bruce and I still have something to do.” With that, Monique and Bruce left.

“I think you have yourself a jacket there mate,” Shazza said to Strezz.

“What’s so special about it? I just found it lying around and I doubt that it does anything,” Strezz replied.

“Rumors say that something special will happen if you bear it,” said Shazza. “I think it’s better off for it to be a surprise.”

“Okay then, but what are you and Sal going to do?” Strezz asked.

“We’ll stay here, or might as well say that we have better things to do,” Shazza answered.

Strezz was now at the beachside. This time, with the jacket on him, and Strezz, as usual, surfed around the waves.

“So, do you want to know about Z-Storm?” Bruce asked Monique as the scene goes to Monique and Bruce still struggling on making fire.

”Not caring,” Monique replied.

”Well no matter what, Z-Storm is one of the most important structures of life,” Bruce said. “Actually Z-Storm would be in life of the comics industry, in that case.”

“And how is that possible?” Monique is still not caring about his conversation.

“Z-Storm is a metallic hero of the Tolerable Metal Dragons that generates storms, and anything that has to do with rain and lightning conduction,” Bruce continued. “Rumors say that a jacket is the main source of wielding Z-Storm, and rain signals that Z-Storm is ready for action! You see, Z-Storm is just anything you would want. You will see Moe that Z-Storm is also an existing material of our life!”

“Wait, didn’t Strezz find a worn out jacket in the beach, which I saw ten minutes ago?” Monique grew into curiosity, “But I’m certain that kind of convenience won’t happen.”

“That depends, where there’s rain, there’s Z-Storm,” Bruce answered. “Speaking of that, it looks like it’s going to rain. Did I mention I’m a Weather Wizard?”

“Don’t be too savvy, I don’t believe anything you can predict can be true, if it was true, and then there’s the time I’d freak out.”

“My father is a weatherman, no matter what,” Bruce was still explaining. “Still, we have to cancel this firewood project.”

“Don’t be so sure Bruce Gunther Coleman, it will eventually shine like the sun.”

Meanwhile Strezz was still surfing and got out of the waves as soon as he noticed that rain was coming. But suddenly, it starting to rain and surprisingly, Strezz formed into a box, not noticing the jacket was doing it.

==
Later, Strezz was inside the cube which the jacket activated. Strezz was surprised and unaware of what was happening.

“Where am I?” Strezz wondered. “Oh please, why isn’t there a way out of this thing, I don’t know it actually happened.”

The box builded up more and was more like a suit of armor. Strezz also realized that he was being raised up by a chair. Plus, a way out was shown.

“Looks like I found an exit!” Strezz remarked. But suddenly, the helmet that goes with the armor fell on top and was stuck to it. “Crap.” Then a bunch of controls moved up on Strezz’s arms and legs. “Okay then…I don’t know how this thing works, but I have to find Bruce and Moe.”

For some reason, the joysticks and everything else won’t work, Strezz tried several attempts, still nothing. That was until the controls were automatically generating, making Z-Storm mobile without further notice from Strezz.

“Okay, I’m not sure if that had to do with this machine or whatever it is, but I’m going to keep trying!” Strezz continued. Strezz, because of the outcome of Z-Storm’s lack of movement, Strezz stomped on the foot controls and from the outside; Z-Storm did the following, while Bruce and Monique heard the stomping.

”What was that?” Monique asked.

“I don’t know, I feel a disturbance,” Bruce thought. “We should go inside, I’m getting all wet.”

“Not so fast! We need to look for spare firewood, and Strezz, I haven’t seen Strezz for half an hour,” Monique said.

Bruce then spotted some spare wood, next to Z-Storm/Strezz. “Looks like I found some!”

The scene switched back to the inside of Z-Storm. “Hmm, maybe my legs could do something, but I’m still hoping to get out of this thing!” Strezz said and unexpectedly kicked Bruce with the firewood he caught.

“Didn’t see that coming,” Bruce said after he got kicked by Z-Storm/Strezz. Strezz then finally figured out that he can move a muscle now. He walked near Bruce and Monique, where they have the firewood.

“Okay, seriously, I can’t stop hearing the beach floor shaking, is it me?” Bruce wondered.

“I don’t know, could it be because of that metallic figure behind us?” Monique asked.

“What are you talking about? That’s Z-Storm,” Bruce then thought for a moment and screamed. He then forced Monique to run from Strezz/Z-Storm.

”For once, you’re right, but you still won’t prevail, but I can’t believe we’ve encountered Z-Storm,” Monique said.

”Like I said, where there’s rain, there’s Z-Storm, but there’s possibly someone in there,” Bruce replied.

“Bruce, Moe!” Strezz called out.

“Just as I thought, someone in there must’ve eaten Strezz!” Bruce was in panic now.

“Are you insane, Bruce? Let’s summarize a bit: A jacket makes the wielder into the possession of Z-Storm’s powers when it rains badly, Strezz had a worn out jacket that looked like that, voices that sound like Strezz from the inside of it, Strezz is Z-Storm!” Monique exclaimed. “You may be a Weather Wizard, I still don’t think you’re that smart.”

”Well, should we keep running?” Bruce asked.

”Of course, it’s for the heck of it!” Monique agreed. They both ran and left the scene with the firewood they collected.

“Oh great, they won’t listen,” said Strezz, then he found Shazza outside. “I hope she has belief.” Z-Storm/Strezz then caught up with Shazza.

“Shazza, I’m trapped in, whatever I’m trapped in,” Strezz said.

“Cool, it’s Z-Storm! But you sound a lot like Strezz these days, is that an imitation you’ve been trying, mate?” Shazza was unaware that Strezz was Z-Storm.

“Z-Storm, that’s what I’m trapped in?” Strezz asked. “Anyways, it’s really me Shazza, it’s Strezz!”

“Okay then, that must mean that the rumor was true! But still, the only way out is if it stops raining,” Shazza answered.

“How is that going to happen, I’ve seen the weather for this place many times, it rains commonly, but how is the rain going to stop?” Strezz wondered. Then there were no more drops of rain, clouds are apart from each other, partially, and a bit of sunlight was shown. Z-Storm was easily strapped off and into Strezz’s jacket in less than 6 seconds.

“No matter what rumors are out there, they’re starting to creep me out, let’s go inside,” Strezz suggested. The scene was now at Sal’s hut.

“I told you Bruce, sunlight was going to kick in, and it did,” Monique said.

“So all that explanation you’re giving means that you’re Z-Storm?” Bruce asked Strezz.

“Sadly it’s true, if it wasn’t, you could’ve considered me on Shazza’s nutty side,” Strezz replied.

“Z-Storm’s possession is a valuable item from known employees of CORE-al, I knew that respectively,” said Sal.

“Wow, I’d never thought that you and Shazza know a lot about Z-Storm and such, said Strezz.

“By the way Strezz, I want to talk with Shazza without you,” said Monique.

“Okay then, tell me when you’re done confessing,” Strezz then left the hut for awhile.

“Shazza, are you kidding me?” Monique asked.

“Kidding about what?” Shazza asked also.

“Are you kidding me that our friend Strezz is a lightning rod mutant?” Monique continued.

“Of course all of that is true, pretty much, I like the Strezz of today, showing his heroic justice,” Shazza replied.

“Well you’re looking at a non-Z-Storm wise guy right here; you do know Strezz has a lot to learn before showing his true “heroic justice,” Monique added. “So far, we have to handle how much Strezz takes in his risks of being Z-Storm.”

”And how are we going to do that? I’m enjoying it right now.”

“I don’t know, you tell me when you think of something.”

The scene was now at the time of 9:30. Monique and Bruce were willing to stay up later to keep up their summertime activeness.

“You mates should get some rest, we have a busy day and we still need to build up our strength tomorrow,” Shazza said.

“Whatever, I’ll do whatever I want,” said Monique.

“In the meantime, Shazza is right, I must be exhausted, so good-night everyone,” Strezz called out.
---------------------------
NOTES/TRIVIA:

Differences:
Instead of Hand K., the heroic version opposing Seymour's organization is known as Tolerable Metal Dragons.
There will no Video Journals.
Strezz and his friends did not transfer.
Rather than a helmet, the controls work when they simply begin to generate.
The humor will also be toned down a bit.

Z-Storm Origins (Part 2 of the festival episode)

 

“Hello Seaside Springs!” Monique shouted out when she got off the train. Unfortunately, the place looked nothing like Seaside Spring. She then saw a sign saying Shellside Shores. “Bruce! Please tell me this is the right stop,” she called out. Bruce got off the train.

 

“Hmm, that’s funny, that sign says Shellside Shores,” Bruce said, and then remarked, “Don’t freak but, I think I turned the map upside down for some reason,” Bruce then flipped it into the right position.

 

”You dumbass! We’re in the wrong beach! It’s not Seaside Springs, but Shellside Shores, oh please!” Monique held Bruce to the train wall like she was going to strangle him.

 

“Moe, temper?” Strezz said.

 

“Well….it’s obvious we’re stranded in a beach no one’s inhabited in,” said Monique.

 

”Uh, we’re here Moe,” Bruce pointed out.

 

”You don’t get, remember what happened yesterday, the shipwreck incident?” Monique hinted.

 

“Wait, aw nuts, we’re in hell! How are we going to live like this?” Bruce panicked.

 

“Well this is just great, I want to go home, well in the Seaside Springs term kind of way,” Monique said.

 

“This is home,” Strezz pointed out.

 

“What’s that suppose to mean, it’s not like we’re going to be stuck here with survival skills, less people, and of course, this place is pretty nifty,” Monique replied.

 

”Just our luck: our ride just left,” Strezz answered. We see the train leaving the beach, and then Monique throws her case angrily.

 

“No need to panic, we always know what comes next, we need skills,” said Strezz.

 

“Skill? We barely have still. All I can say is that the island’s air smells like Bruce’s socks, and the weather is very paranormal. If it’s a beach, why is it so cloudy?” Monique wondered.

 

“Simply, one of us has to find food, built shelter, and put up a fire,” said Strezz,

 

“I have an idea, you build a shelter, find food, while Bruce and I make a fire,” Monique replied.

 

”God, why do I have to be treated like work?” Strezz wondered.

 

”And I don’t know why I’m on Moe’s side,” Bruce and Monique then left the area to find wood.

 

”Well this is just great, we don’t have anything to build a fire,” said Monique after they found some wood.

 

“Well, my parents always said, two sticks can do the trick,” Bruce replied and rubbed two sticks on the firewood pattern, nothing happen.

 

“Hmm, how about you build the shelter, I’ll do the fire,” Monique said. Bruce didn’t care.

 

Bruce was later building shelter, it was a pineapple.

 

“Uh Bruce, isn’t that a little too last season?” Strezz asked.

”What, do you expect us to live in a kumquat?” Bruce replied.

 

“I found some food alright, I’ll finish the house while you and Moe continue the other two objectives,” said Strezz. Bruce went back to where Monique was with the firewood.

 

While Strezz was rebuilding, something fell from the sky, which looked like a jacket. Also, Strezz was done building shelter, and then he notices the jacket that landed on the ground.

 

“Hmm, a piece offering, I’ll worry about it later,” Strezz then left the scene. And it was now at the waves. Strezz brings out his trusty new surfboard.

 

“How come I don’t get breaks?” Bruce asked Monique.

 

“No idea, I would love to have one, but we don’t want Strezz to see our slacking, keep kindling!” Monique ordered.

 

Strezz was now out there in the surf, with his board, performing a bunch of mind blowing tricks, Strezz was now ready for another one until something came for the unexpected.

 

“Look out!” Someone from above said out loud. Strezz bumped into that person and caused a wipeout. Monique and Bruce noticed it.

 

*Video Journal*

 

Monique: Did I mention Bruce came along with a video camera or something. This is a simple segment on our lives and expressions on this island so far. And so far, I want to go home!

 

*End*

 

“Uh, what just happened?” Strezz thought and saw that one girl. He was surprised.

 

“G’day Strezz,” the person called out.

 

”Oh no, it’s you, isn’t it?” Strezz asked.

 

“Of course it is, your old friend Shazza,” she said.

 

“Okay, pretty much it’s good news we found someone, but she nuts for someone who knew Strezz,” Monique thought.

 

*Video Journal*

 

Strezz: May I be the first to point out that…that Shazza person is some freak I escaped from years ago? Now I did. And so why did I transfer to a different school to get away from her? Well something that Monique said is that reason.

 

*End*

 

“Well it’s nice to see you again Shazza, and I doubt that you know Bruce and Moe,” Strezz greeted.

 

”For someone we don’t know and what Strezz knows, how did you end up here? Its pretty luck we found someone like you,” asked Bruce.

 

“Well, I’ve been stuck here for two years now, this is where I decided to live, but it’s abandoned now, and I don’t care,” Shazza explained.

 

“Okay then Shazza, I guess this means that you have a house around here,” said Monique.

 

“Sure do, I’ll show you around that jungle,” Shazza replied.

 

Moments later they have arrived at the hut Shazza lives. Strezz and friends went inside.

 

“Shazza, you have arrived,” someone said.

 

“Hey there Sal, we have a couple of friends here, they’re friends of Strezz,” Shazza replied.

 

”Okay, now who the heck is this guy? No kidding,” asked Strezz.

 

“While you guys were having fun before you got stranded here as usual, I got myself a friend named Sal, and then we eventually decided to live here together. I heard that he’s a Shaman,” Shazza explained.

 

“Weirder beyond reason, not buying your hospitality,” said Monique.

 

“Whatever, but you three are still welcome to stay,” Sal added.

 

“Yeah, your welcome,” Monique continued. “Bruce and I still have something to do.” With that, Monique and Bruce left.

 

“I think you have yourself a jacket there mate,” Shazza said to Strezz.

 

“What’s so special about it? I just found it lying around and I doubt that it does anything,” Strezz replied.

 

“Rumors say that something special will happen if you bear it,” said Shazza.

 

“Okay then, but what are you and Sal doing?” Strezz asked.

 

“We’ll stay here, or might as well say that we have better things to do,” Shazza answered.

 

Strezz was now at the beachside. This time, with the jacket on him, and Strezz, as usual, surfed around the waves.

 

“So, do you want to know about Z-Storm?” Bruce asked Monique as the scene goes to Monique and Bruce still struggling on making fire.

 

”Not caring,” Monique replied.

 

”Well no matter what, Z-Storm is one of the most important structures of life,” Bruce said.

 

“And how is that possible?” Monique is still not caring about his conversation.

 

“Z-Storm is a metallic hero that generates storms, and anything that has to do with rain and lightning conduction,” Bruce continued. “Rumors say that a jacket is the main source of wielding Z-Storm, and rain signals that Z-Storm is ready for action! You see, Z-Storm is the night sky in our DeoxyDNA, the sunlight of the sunlight prince, etc. You will see Moe that Z-Storm is also an existing material of our life!”

 

“Wait, didn’t Strezz find a worn out jacket in the beach, which I saw ten minutes ago?” Monique grew into curiosity,

 

“That depends, where there’s rain, there’s Z-Storm,” Bruce answered. “Speaking of that, it looks like it’s going to rain. Did I mention I’m a Weather Wizard?”

 

“You’re just savvy, I believe anything you can predict can be true, if it was true, and then there’s the time I’d freak out.”

 

“My father is a weatherman, no matter what,” Bruce was still explaining. “Still, we have to cancel this firewood project.”

 

“Don’t be so sure Bruce Gunther Coleman, It will eventually shine like the sun.”

 

Meanwhile Strezz was still surfing and got out of the waves as soon as he noticed that rain was coming. But suddenly, it starting to rain and surprisingly, Strezz formed into a box, not noticing the jacket was doing it.

 

*Video Journal*

 

Shazza: I don’t know what’s wrong with Strezz these days, that mate looked more serious than before…and I can face facts when I saw that jacket, and that meant that it could be a alternative of Z-Storm.

 

*End*

 

Later, Strezz was inside the cube which the jacket activated. Strezz was surprised and unaware of what was happening.

 

“Where am I?” Strezz wondered. “Oh please, why isn’t there a way out of this thing, I don’t know it actually happened.”

 

The box builded up more and was more like a suit of armor. Strezz also realized that he was being raised up by a chair. Plus, a way out was shown.

 

“My escape!” Strezz remarked. But suddenly, the helmet that goes with the armor fell on top and was stuck to it. “Crap.” Then, bike pedal like controls moved up on Strezz’s legs, and joysticks that appear to be controls of Z-Storm’s arms appeared. “Okay then…I don’t know how this thing works, but I have to find Bruce and Moe.”

 

For some reason, the joysticks and pedals won’t budge, Strezz tried several attempts, still nothing. Then a helmet appeared from the stem of the inside of Z-Storm and fell on Strezz.

 

“Okay, I’m not sure if that was still necessary, but I’m going to keep trying!” Strezz continued. Strezz, because of the outcome of Z-Storm’s lack of movement, Strezz stomped on the pedals and from the outside; Z-Storm did the following, which meant that the helmet was the main battery for Z-Storm’s controls. Bruce and Monique heard the stomping.

 

”What was that?” Monique asked.

 

“I don’t know, I feel a disturbance,” Bruce thought. “We should go inside, I’m getting all wet.”

 

“Not so fast! We need to look for spare firewood, and Strezz, I haven’t seen Strezz for half an hour,” Monique said.

“Didn’t see that coming,” Bruce said after he got kicked by Z-Storm/Strezz. Strezz then finally figured out that he can move a muscle now. He walked near Bruce and Monique, where they have the firewood.

 

*Video Journal*

 

Strezz: I totally didn’t see that coming. I have possession of Z-Storm. Whatever that random guy said was right.

 

*End*

 

“Okay, seriously, I can’t stop hearing the beach floor shaking, is it me?” Bruce wondered.

 

“I don’t know, could it be because of that metallic figure behind us?” Monique asked.

 

“What are you talking about, that’s Z-Storm,” Bruce then thought for a moment and screamed. He then forced Monique to run from Strezz/Z-Storm.

“Bruce, Moe!” Strezz called out.

 

“Just as I thought, someone in there must’ve eaten Strezz!” Bruce was in panic now.

 

“Let’s revise: A jacket makes the wielder into the possession of Z-Storm’s powers when it rains badly, Strezz had a worn out jacket that looked like that, voices that sound like Strezz from the inside of it, Strezz is Z-Storm!” Monique exclaimed. “You may be a Weather Wizard, but you’re still just plain savvy.”

 

”Should we keep running?” Bruce asked.

 

”Of course, for the heck of it!” Monique agreed. They both ran and left the scene with the firewood they collected.

[Steel Sponge]

1. Z-Storm Origins (Part 3 of 3)

It was now morning, and Strezz and co. woken up.

“Breakfast!” Sal called out.

“Thank goodness, I’m hungry after eating all those produces Strezz found,” said Monique.

Breakfast was served, it was oatmeal.

“Still better than produces,” Monique added.

”So Moe, how was yesterday?” Bruce asked.

“Terrible…it was just terrible.”

*End*

“So everything has changed now that Strezz has Z-Storm’s utility device,” Monique said.

“Well if that’s a problem, I’m sorry, why would I experience that?” Strezz replied.

“So Sal, why couldn’t we just order pizza?” Bruce wondered.

“The answer is really obvious, we have no chance of communication outside of this island, Moe tried to signalize all night,” Strezz answered. Then a flashback was cued.

“I need someone who knows, someone who knows how to get me off this island!” Monique remarked. Her cell said no signal. “No bars, oh why must life be so predictable?! I’m never getting out of here! UGH!” Monique then threw the phone on the ground. The flashback ended.

“So Strezz, I can show you a thing or two about this Z-Storm stuff we’ve been talking about,” said Shazza.

“Whatever, as long as it’s not dangerous,” Strezz and Shazza left the hut.

“I hope you still like kindling and the fact that you can’t build a freakin fire, cuz’ we’re back on schedule and nobody’s going anywhere!” With that Monique and Bruce went back outside.

Strezz and Shazza were first to be shown.

”How long are we going to stand here, and what are you going to do with my jacket?” Strezz asked.

“You’ll see the way I fly, just wait until a storm kicks in,” Shazza answered. Many white clouds showed up. Shazza was boxed up and forming into Z-Storm. Strezz was surprised, Shazza was flying in a brilliant angle, like the way it should be sometimes. After a few minutes, the rain stopped and Shazza gave the jacket back to Strezz.

“How’d you know how to do all that? You have nothing to do with Z-Storm’s powers,” said Strezz.

“Or do I? Technically, I was a former Z-Storm, but let’s just say the magnificent flying technique I tried was all practice,” Shazza explained.

“I think you’re right, I should read that manual, wait, Z-Storm has a manual?” Strezz thought.

“No, but I know that anything can simply have its own manual, that kind of doesn’t make any sense, but you’ll know what I mean. I was a beginner like you, but I retired from Z-Storm’s tasks,” Shazza replied. The scene then shows Monique and Bruce.

“Well, I made a fire,” Bruce said, even though there isn’t one.

“Are you really sure? I don’t see it anymore,” Monique said sarcastically.

“Well, it was raining; I’ll just start over at Sal’s hut, positive thinking right?” Bruce said.

“Sure, you do that, but don’t go ditching on me,” Monique said. After that moment, it was raining.

“Just my luck, it’s raining….again,” Monique added.

Strezz/Z-Storm has now showed up in front of Monique which almost startled her.

“Z-Storm, the one guy who finally decided to show up,” Monique said sarcastically.

“Uh, Strezz,” he said.

“I know who you are, but seriously, what do you want? I’m busy.”

“Monique, I didn’t want to do this until now, but I’m making you a test-drive on my Z-Storm abilities,” Strezz replied. “Just hang on to me; we’re going to the skies.”

”Wait a minute, you said skies-“Monique was interrupted when Strezz soared with her up in the air. Monique was screaming to get down.

“I’m sorry but I have to do this, I have desire to test my flying,” Strezz said.

“Ok, the only thing I understand is that you desired too much already,” Monique replied. “Just get me down, god damn it!”

Strezz/Z-Storm kept flying for a few moments; some of the flight techniques were perfect.

”It looks like I’m starting to get it,” said Strezz.

“Just put me on the ground, as I wish!” Monique commanded. Strezz was about to free Monique until an unexpectedly blast hit Strezz’s balance on Monique causing her to free fall. “Now you’ve done it!”

“It wasn’t me, honest!”

Monique was lucky; she kept falling until she fell into Sal’s hut.

“Moe, what happened back there?” said Sal from below.

“Z-Storm happened, nothing much. Bruce, catch me!” Monique said.

“Ok, whatever, but I should say-“Bruce was interrupted when he caught Monique, causing Bruce to lose his balance.

“Why are you so heavy?!” Bruce exclaimed.

It was nighttime now, and as usual, there was no hard raining.

“I can’t believe I was a test for Strezz’s Z-Storm abilities.” Monique said.

“It kind of reminds me, maybe I can design a simple obstacle course for Z-Storm,” Sal answered.

“Aw shut up! Z-Storm this, Z-Storm that! You’re looking at the only non-Z-Storm induced person right here!” Monique remarked.

“I’m with you, as much as I appreciate the fact that I’m Z-Storm, I’d care less about the tasks I take,” Strezz replied.

”Sure, but Bruce is like a virus, you know what I mean!” Monique continued. “Another thing, I’m going crazy and I’m unlike that.”

“Sorry, I’m just amused is all,” Bruce replied.

“Well you guys can take all you want, dinner is almost ready,” said Sal.

Dinner was ready. Sal’s specialty stew was called “Question Mark” stew.

“And this is your special kind of mystery stew? I’m not sure if I can dig it,” said Monique. Eventually they were all eating it. “Not bad, what’s in this?” Monique asked Sal.

“I don’t know, some sea urchin larvae, and squid testicles,” Sal answered. With that, Monique urged to puke.

“Sorry Moe, that happens a lot…I think,” said Sal.

“Whatever,” Monique replied. “As much as I wouldn’t want to go hungry, there’s got to be a way out of here, I want to go to Seaside Springs for our own sake!”

“Well, I could take my private helicopter,” Sal was then interrupted.

“You have one? Thank goodness,” Bruce interrupted.

“Not done, I could take my private helicopter, but there has been a ton of blockades over the past days, those blockading clouds are preventing my helicopter to gain mobility through them.”

“Well that’s a spirit breaker,” Monique said. “So I assumed you crashed it, right?”

“But what if those clouds subside anyhow? You know how climate is like, I just need to use my scanner for the weather in this place, or so,” said Bruce.

“You have a scanner?” Strezz asked.

Many minutes later along with a short montage, the scan results were shown.

“So Bruce, when will those “blockading clouds” go into thin air?” Monique asked.

“Very important questions, those clouds were formed by a very powerful conduct, we’re not going anywhere!” Bruce answered.

“Why, oh why, does everything have to be so difficult?!” Monique bawled.

“As long as there’s a way across sea, it wouldn’t be,” Sal thought. “Time for smart thinking guys, what would Z-Storm do?”

“Barely anything actually, I sense no potential for Strezz,” Monique said.

“Strezz couldn’t get across one of those currents around this beach, but Z-Storm can,” Sal thought. “I’m unsure that would really work, but first, we need regular Strezz and his board.”

“Let’s cut to the chase, Strezz is going to ride the wind, and ride the storm?” Bruce asked.

“Hello, strong current, which I can’t get across, and what about the rest of you guys, what are you going to do?” Strezz gave out another question.

“I have some special gifts for Moe, Bruce, and Shazza, but they’re not done yet. And don’t worry; Z-Storm will kick in when rain does.” Sal answered.

“Well I hope that works, to make things simple….wish me luck,” Strezz said and left the hut.

Before Strezz was ready to ride the wind and storm with his board, Monique, Bruce, and Shazza were introduced with their “gifts.”

“Ooh, I like surprises,” said Shazza.

“I know you guys do, first is Monique,” Sal then gives her something that looks like a glove with a sleeve.

“I give up, what does this glove thing have to do with my natural abilities?” Monique asked.

“That glove triples the power of your average punch,” Sal explained.

“Oh I get it. You mean like this?” Monique then punched Bruce and knocked him on the ground.

“Sal wasn’t kidding, that’s way more than your average punch,” said Bruce.

“And for Bruce, I can tell you don’t know what this thing is,” Sal then gave Bruce a watch. “From any press, conducts any type of storm.”

“Wow, now that you mentioned it, nice work,” Bruce said.

“And last, but not least, for Shazza,” Sal continued and gave Shazza a board.

“Wow, something that looks as valuable as Strezz’s,” Monique said about Shazza’s board.

”That surfboard Shazza, you’ll be thrilled of what kind of gadgets are concealed in that,” Sal said.

“Well thanks for the presents Sal, but how are going to find Strezz?” Monique asked. Later, Shazza, Bruce, and Monique appeared on Shazza’s board with a force shield.

“Damn it, Shazza gets the good stuff,” said Bruce.

The scene is right at Strezz, on his surfboard.

Just then, Seymour arrives and causes Strezz to fall on the board. Strezz lay dead on the water until a storm catches up and Strezz gets his breath to emerge from the ocean.

“Looks like Poseidon is angry, isn’t he?” Strezz said to Seymour.

“I knew it. You were the one who would be Z-Storm. I control everything, such as these storms. Possibly nothing can stop me,” Seymour explained.

“And isn’t there something that makes you think I’m a professional Z-Storm? I’m not,” said Strezz.

“I can tell you’re not professional, and besides, I like whooping up the easy ones,” Seymour replied. “I commence a fight, there will be a sacrifice.”

“Okay fine, if there is a way I can get out of here,” Strezz said.

*End*

And so it began. Seymour had a laser blade and easily knocked Strezz/Z-Storm. Strezz was pressing random controls and got one of them right to make Z-Storm conduct lighting to make Seymour take some damage. Seymour then forms lightning stronger than Strezz’s. Strezz once again presses more buttons and activates a laser blade. Seymour dashes through the water and his steps caused a statical reaction in the water, Strezz was shocked, literally. Strezz couldn’t focus hitting Seymour because of his dashing. Seymour then made Strezz take some damage once again. Strezz uses his laser blade and finally hits Seymour. Seymour gets out of his metallic armor and manages to do what his metal robot does and introduces something else, the water was now reacting to static electricity for every two minutes. Strezz then got out of Z-Storm and uses his laser blade to reduce Seymour’s health. Seymour thought Strezz was stupid enough to approach without him inside Z-Storm. Strezz and Seymour then have a laser blade fight, blocking each other. Then Seymour did somewhat a matrix styled back flip and got back inside what he calls Dark Light. Strezz then got back inside Z-Storm and the laser blade fight still continued. It was now two minutes after; Strezz fell as the water “shocks his senses.” Strezz tries to use his lightning conduct again to try and make Seymour fall. Seymour was a persistent fighter. Seymour inside Dark Light introduced something more painful, he rumbles the ground to make a tsunami strike on Strezz. Z-Storm was underwater, and Seymour removes the helmet, trying to make Strezz drown. Strezz plunged back up as usual to take some breaths. Another two minutes arrived and shocked Strezz making him go back down under. Seymour attempts another tsunami strike. Strezz was almost unable to catch another breath. Strezz was taken down. Until Strezz realized he wouldn’t die, Z-Storm has totally changed him, which meant his possession to him prevented him from being in great danger. Strezz lifts back up and gets back on Z-Storm and laser fights Seymour again. Seymour then uses another powerful lightning conduct to damage Strezz. Strezz does the same and presses another random button to realize that he also has plasma cannon. Strezz was doing what he needs to do. The next two minutes occurred and Strezz flew to make the reaction miss him. Seymour went into the sky like Strezz did and laser blades him on the ground. Another laser blade fight occurred and as usual, Strezz and Seymour blocked each other. Strezz then knocks Seymour’s blade into the water and hits him. Seymour’s name was now mud until he had something in his sleeve. He blockaded Strezz by creating tsunamis in all four types of directions. Strezz was about to fly, until the tsunamis made Strezz take a lot of damage. Strezz was also showing persistence. Strezz held Seymour and flew in the sky, Strezz then dropped Seymour in the water. And then the lighting reaction in the water shocks Seymour. Strezz wraps it all off with his plasma cannon. Seymour admitted loss after he gets back up.

“Fine, I might as well say you win, if you have any questions, you have to figure them out,” Seymour was about to leave until Bruce, Monique, and Shazza finally arrived. “I see you have friends, but let’s continue on, shall we?”

Seymour then flew on a cloud with Strezz, Bruce, Monique, and Shazza.

“We’re on a cloud!” Bruce exclaimed.

“Okay, seriously, question: who the hell are you?” Monique asked.

“In my grounds, there will be no questions, all I can say is that you are all surrounded,” said Seymour. “And the fact that I will not rest, on trying to dismantle the grand prize.”

“And what is that supposed to mean?” Bruce said confused.

“You’re all surrounded and I’m still going to continue destroying your friend here, A.K.A Z-Storm!” Seymour answered angrily.

“I thought you said no questions can be answered,” Bruce replied.

“Stop giving me a hard time, your little friend here is in perfect position to be demised,” Seymour said. Shazza was about to stop Seymour until he knocked Shazza off the cloud, luckily, the ocean broke her fall.

“What’s your problem?” Strezz was near the slipping limit of the cloud.

”Maybe you didn’t hear me, no questions apply saint.” Seymour said, but this is the end,” Seymour then takes Strezz out of Z-Storm and pushes him off the cloud. Shazza then manages to catch Strezz.

“Man, how many times do I have to be this lucky and this close to be slain by that maniac?” Strezz thought.

“Yeah and how are we supposed to catch Bruce and Moe now?” Shazza said.

“Come what now?” Strezz tried to reach Bruce and Monique, but the cloud drifted away, and luckily the Z-Storm jacket dropped out of the cloud.

“At least the rain stopped, and how are we going to free Bruce and Moe now?” Strezz wondered.

“I was thinking the same thing, mate,” Shazza replied.

Strezz and Shazza then hear unexpected screaming from someone falling. She then falls on the sand and reveals Zowe.

“I’ve been conned, and now I’m stuck here!” Zowe exclaimed.

“Zowe, what is she doing here?” Strezz thought.

Z-Storm Origins Part 3 of 3(festival episode)

 

It was now morning, and Strezz and co. woken up.

 

“Breakfast!” Sal called out.

 

“Thank goodness, I’m hungry after eating all those produces Strezz found,” said Monique.

 

Breakfast was served, it was oatmeal.

 

“Still better than produces,” Monique added.

 

”So Moe, how was yesterday?” Bruce asked.

 

*Video Journal*

 

Monique: Terrible.

 

*End*

 

“So everything has changed now that Strezz has Z-Storm’s utility device,” Monique said.

 

“Well if that’s a problem, I’m sorry, why would I experience that?” Strezz replied.

 

“So Sal, why couldn’t we just order pizza?” Bruce wondered.

 

“This place island has no bars, Monique tried to signalize all night,” Strezz answered. Then a flashback was cued.

 

“I need someone who knows, someone who knows how to get me off this island!” Monique remarked. Her cell said no signal. “No bars?! Why must life be so predictable?! I’m never getting out of here! UGGGHHHH!” Monique then threw the phone on the ground. The flashback ended.

 

“So Strezz, I can show you a thing or two about this Z-Storm stuff we’ve been talking about,” said Shazza.

 

“Whatever, as long as it’s not dangerous,” Strezz and Shazza left the hut.

 

“I hope you still like kindling and the fact that you can’t build a freakin fire, cuz’ we’re back on schedule and nobody’s going anywhere!” With that Monique and Bruce went back outside.

 

Strezz and Shazza were first to be shown.

 

”How long are we going to stand here, and what are you going to do with my jacket?” Strezz asked.

 

“You’ll see the way I fly, just wait until a storm kicks in,” Shazza answered. Many white clouds showed up. Shazza was boxed up and forming into Z-Storm. Strezz was surprised, Shazza was flying in a brilliant angle, like the way it should be sometimes. After a few minutes, the rain stopped and Shazza gave the jacket back to Strezz.

 

“How’d you know how to do all that? You have nothing to do with Z-Storm’s powers,” said Strezz.

 

“Or am I? Technically, I was a former Z-Storm, but let’s just say the magnificent flying technique I tried was all practice,” Shazza explained.

 

“I think you’re right, I should read that manual, wait, Z-Storm has a manual?” Strezz thought.

 

“Why not, I was a beginner like you, but I retired from Z-Storm’s tasks,” Shazza replied. The scene then shows Monique and Bruce.

 

“Well I made a fire,” Bruce said, even though there isn’t one.

 

“Really? I don’t see it anymore,” Monique said sarcastically.

 

“Well, it was raining; I’ll just start over at Sal’s hut, positive thinking right?” Bruce said.

 

“Sure, you do that, but don’t go ditching on me,” Monique said. After that moment, it was raining.

 

“Just my luck, it’s raining….again,” Monique added.

 

Strezz/Z-Storm has now showed up in front of Monique which almost startled her.

 

“Z-Storm, the one guy who finally decided to show up,” Monique said sarcastically.

 

“Uh, Strezz,” he said.

 

“I know who you are, but seriously, what do you want? I’m busy.”

 

“Monique, I didn’t want to do this until now, but I’m making you a test-drive on my Z-Storm abilities,” Strezz replied. “Just hang on to me; we’re going to the skies.”

 

”Wait a minute, you said skies-“Monique was interrupted when Strezz soared with her up in the air. Monique was screaming to get down.

 

“I’m sorry but I have to do this, I have desire to test my flying,” Strezz said.

 

“Ok, the only thing I understand is that you desired too much already,” Monique replied. “Just get me down, god damn it!”

 

Strezz/Z-Storm kept flying for a few moments; some of the flight techniques were perfect.

 

”It looks like I’m starting to get it,” said Strezz.

 

“Just put me on the ground before I kick your arsehole!” Monique commanded. Strezz was about to free Monique until an unexpectedly blast hit Strezz’s balance on Monique causing her to free fall. “Strezz!”

 

“It wasn’t me, honest!”

 

Monique was lucky; she kept falling until she fell into a cardboard bagel that Sal reportedly built.

 

“Moe, I’m giving you 10 seconds to exit the bagel,” said Sal from below.

 

“Okay then. Bruce, catch me!” Monique said.

 

“Ok, whatever, but I should say-“Bruce was interrupted when he caught Monique, causing Bruce to lose his balance.

 

“Why are you so heavy?!” Bruce exclaimed.

 

It was nighttime now, and as usual, there was no hard raining.

 

“So Sal, what was with that giant bagel?” Monique asked.

 

“Oh of course, it’s an obstacle course object for Z-Storm,” Sal answered.

 

“Aw shut up! Z-Storm this, Z-Storm that! You’re looking at the only non-Z-Storm induced person right here!” Monique remarked.

 

“I’m with you, as much as I appreciate the fact that I’m Z-Storm, I’d care less about the tasks I take,” Strezz replied.

 

”Sure, but Bruce is like a virus, you know what I mean!” Monique continued.

 

“Sorry, I’m just amused is all,” Bruce replied.

 

“Well you guys can take all you want, dinner is almost ready,” said Sal.

 

*Video Journal*

 

Bruce: No matter what, I can still dig on Monique, in half, I like her style.

 

*End*

 

Dinner was ready. Sal’s specialty stew was called “Question Mark” stew.

 

“And this is your special kind of mystery stew? I’m not sure if I can dig it,” said Monique. Eventually they were all eating it. “Not bad, what’s in this grub?” Monique asked Sal.

 

“I don’t know, some sea urchin larvae, and squid testicles,” Sal answered. With that, Monique urged to puke.

 

“Sorry Moe, that happens a lot, I think,” said Sal.

 

“Whatever, I’m going fishing,” Monique replied.

 

After many moments, Monique came back with a pile of sushi.

 

”Sushi anyone?” Monique asked.

 

“Wait, did you just kill a bunch of trout or whatever to turn into that? As my response, I’d pass,” Bruce replied.

 

“I’m with Bruce on that one,” said Strezz.

 

“What? You don’t respect the fact that we’re cannibals?” Said Monique. “In this case, there’s got to be a way out of here, I want to go to Seaside Springs for our own sake!”

 

“Well, I could take my private helicopter,” Sal was then interrupted.

 

“You do? Thank goodness,” Bruce interrupted.

 

“Not done, I could take my private helicopter, but there has been a ton of blockades over the past days, those blockading clouds are preventing my helicopter to gain mobility through them.”

 

“Well that’s a spirit breaker,” Monique said.

 

“But what if those clouds subside anyhow, you know how climate is like, I just need to use my future scanner or so,” Bruce said.

 

“You have a future scanner?” Strezz asked.

 

Many minutes later along with a short montage, the scan results were complete.

 

“So Bruce, when will those blockading clouds go into thin air?” Monique asked.

 

“Very important questions, those clouds were formed by a very powerful conduct, we’re not going anywhere!” Bruce answered.

 

“Why, oh why, does everything have to be so difficult?!” Monique bawled.

 

“As long as there’s a way across sea, it wouldn’t be,” Sal thought. “Time for smart thinking guys, what would Z-Storm do?”

 

“Barely anything actually, I sense no potential for Strezz,” Monique said.

 

“Strezz couldn’t get across one of those currents around this beach, but Z-Storm can,” Sal thought. “But first, we need regular Strezz and his board.”

 

“Let’s cut to the chase, Strezz is going to ride the wind, and ride the storm?” Bruce asked.

“Okay fine, if there is a way I can get out of here,” Strezz said.

 

*Video Journal*

 

Shazza: I think Bruce and Moe are totally wrong, Strezz is showing how noble he is, to take on the bet of fighting Seymour.

 

*End*

 

And so it began. Seymour had a laser blade and easily knocked Strezz/Z-Storm. Strezz was pressing random controls and got one of them right to make Z-Storm conduct lighting to make Seymour take some damage. Seymour then forms lightning stronger than Strezz’s.

“Man, how many times do I have to be this lucky and this close to be slain by that maniac?” Strezz thought.

 

“Yeah and how are we supposed to catch Bruce and Moe now?” Said Shazza.

“I was thinking the same thing, mate,” Shazza replied.

 

Strezz and Shazza then hear unexpected screaming from someone falling. She then falls on the sand and reveals Zowe.

 

“Conned, conned!” Zowe exclaimed.

 

“Zowe?” Strezz thought.

2. Not-So Rescue Rangers

“Zowe, I’d never expect you to arrive here. How exactly were you conned?” Strezz asked

“Some guy, black shirt, shady attitude,” Zowe referred. “I was going to fly to Seaside Shores, until he, the pilot kicked me off the zeppelin.”

“Seymour?” Strezz thought.

”Who the hell is that guy?” Zowe was confused.

“Oh nothing, I was thinking that it can be a good name for him,” Strezz lied however. Zowe wouldn't really react suspicious about this, but I don't want to let her know about this guy, and my newly found heroic identity. “Our island is your island...actually, it's for anyone like you. Anyways, I’ll get you to Sal’s hut and we’ll eventually investigate on Bruce and Moe’s disappearance.”

“Those guys were on this island too and they’re held captive?” Zowe thought. “I’ve never been happier, carry my bags please,” Zowe continued. Strezz could barely breathe when he tried carrying Zowe’s case.

“What do you have in this tank, people?” Strezz asked.

”Yes, thanks for reminding me, Cam, Marina, Zack, come out of there!” Zowe called out. Cam was first to get out.

”That came out of nowhere, so we got more castaways, are you nuts?” Strezz said.

“Consider me sufficient out of the bunch, I know everything that will surround you.” Cam said to Strezz.

”Like what?”

“That’s classified my liege,” Cam continued. “And so, who am I? It’s clear that I am nowhere…” Cam then leaves the scene, before reappearing, "In your sight, so I prefer to be hidden."

“Strezz, I didn’t know you could end up here, as long as I’m here, well….we’re safe,” Marina said hugging Strezz.

”Yeah, but I just want to point out that we’re going to be here for, I don’t know, forever,” Strezz replied. Zack was last.

”Zack, aren’t you suppose to be in prison?” Strezz questioned.

“Zowe is good at busting people out, don’t speak of it,” Zack answered.

“Okay then….”

“And who is that girl in which we never heard of?” Zowe asked.

“This is Shazza, part Australlian, perhaps?” Strezz thought. "I'd be right, it's such a shock to see her end up here."

“I guess you’re right, well I’m bored, and what do you mates want to do?” Shazza said.

“Get out of here?” Zowe replied.

“Find Bruce and Moe?” Strezz replied.

“Die in a ditch?” Zack replied.

“Strezz has a point, we won’t give up, and we will search high, and low.” Shazza said.

“Hmm, I don’t know why they call it a beach, the sand is real sturdy,” Zowe pointed out.

”Thanks for pointing that out, the sand hasn’t been smooth the whole time I was here, like if there was a secret-“ Strezz said and was interrupted when a trapdoor caused the six to fall. “BUTTON!” Strezz exclaimed.

Strezz fell first, and then Cam, Marina, Shazza, and Zack, in this case, four of them fell on Strezz, while Zowe fell on the other side. Then Zowe’s briefcase fell on Strezz’s head. Strezz mumbled after getting crushed by it.

The scene switches to Strezz and co. in the corridor of the secret hideout.

“Strezz, are you okay?” Marina asked.

“If you mean the fact that Zowe’s case almost dismantled my face, I’m alright,” Strezz replied. “What else was in that briefcase of yours Zowe?”

“I would also carry some heavy stuff,” Zowe answered. Strezz and co. then heard some noise from the corridor.

“Should we be able to guard those peasants of yours, sir?” One of Seymour’s servants said.

“Of course, I have bigger fish to fry, especially some 14 year old known as Z-Storm,” Seymour replied.

“Aw man, right place at the wrong time, we found Seymour,” Strezz said.

“That's what his name his? He looks like the one that pushed me off a plane from like two hundred feet, I knew he was real,” Zowe said. Then a beeping noise is heard.

“What is that mysterious ticking noise?” Zack said annoyed.

“Well it’s obvious, it tells us when Z-“Shazza was shushed by Strezz.

“She’s crazy, it’s particularly something that would go,” Strezz then began a tune, “Strezz, Strezz, Strezz Stormond....ugh,” Strezz stopped and then threw the jacket into the ground, in which the jacket forms into Z-Storm.

“I give up, what is that?” Zowe asked, referring to Z-Storm.

“It’s a replica of Z-Storm, I found it somewhere in a convention, I have no idea what it does,” Strezz once again lies.

Cam then appears from an air vent and causes Strezz and co. to jump with surprise.

“I know what’s happening!” Cam exclaimed.

“If it has to do with Z-Storm, then yes, thank you very much,” Strezz said.

“You know Seymour huh? Well, he’s planning something nasty, and I came up with a tactic,” Cam replied.

"I'm confused, who's Seymour, why does he look like that scoundrel, and how does Cam and Strezz know about that?" Zowe asked.

"Well Cam is secretive, and I happened to have caught his name, no big deal," said Strezz and then blatantly lies by saying, "Of course, I'm very less known to him. Whatever your tactic is, Cam, I predict that it would not work,” Strezz replied.

“Just get in the vent,” Strezz and co. got inside the air duct to see what Cam has got to explain.

“Okay Cameron, what’s the 911?” Zowe said.

“I have a foolproof plan, starting with the distraction, who wants to be the distraction?” Cam asked.

”On the record, I will be, no one can catch the clutches of Zack…whatever my last name is,” Zack replied.

“Strezz, Marina, and I will travel through the air vent, I got some special operations for Shazza and Zowe,” said Cam.

“So our basic plan is like the tunnel of love?” Marina thought.

Oh brother, Strezz thought. “Seriously, I have no idea what you’re talking about,” he said to Marina. “So, what do you have planned for Shazza and Zowe?”

”Shazza, you’ll find Strezz's friends, and make it quick.” Cam said to Shazza.

”Thanks mate, I know how to spot them pretty well,” Shazza commented.

“And speaking of special operations, can I have a code name?” Zowe asked.

“That's not really necessary, but I can call you….Psychotic Woman, you’re the back-up, you find Strezz's friends when Shazza is in danger,” Cam explained. “Let’s get this show on the road.”

“In hindsight, you four are the worst kind of castaways in the history of this beach,” Strezz said in the air ducts.

"Lay low Strezz, are there many other candidates as the worst castaways you've met?" Zowe questioned.

Shazza drops out of the air duct and sneaks in the hideout without notice. She finds Bruce and Monique caged.

“Bruce and Monique, guess whose back!?” Shazza said.

”Well thank goodness, can you get us out now?” Monique asked.

”No problem,” Shazza then unlocked the cellar and came inside with Bruce and Monique on her side when Shazza took a step forward to get out of the cellar, the cellar was locked.

“For a good friend who came her to safe us conveniently, you’re still gullible enough to realize something predictable is going to happen,” Monique said to Shazza.

“Hello peasants of Z-Storm,” said Seymour.

”To be honest, I have nothing to do with what I don’t care,” Monique pointed out.

”Why do you hate us so?” Bruce said.

“I just want Z-Storm, and since I have uh, this girl as evidence, maybe she knows where that rascal is,” said Seymour.

“Well, I demand a lawyer!” Monique said.

“As if,” Seymour replied. "You're going to be locked in there as long as I'd like, real simple. "Seymour then heard a noise. “I’ll be right back, don’t move, or be killed,” Seymour left.

“It looks like Shazza is eliminated from our retrieval plan,” Cam said, “I’ll use my transceiver to give Zowe the signal.”

“You have a transceiver with you? I’ve been thinking this place would suck with you guys, but you’re lucky,” Strezz said to Cam.

“Yes Cam, I have Plan B right here,” Zowe then notices she’s above Strezz, Cam, and Marina. Zowe then finds Seymour and blocks him. “Not so fast, punk! I’ve been hired to protect anything from danger and there’s nothing you can do about it!” She exclaimed.

Seymour then gave a confused look on his face.

“You know what they say, never mess with Psychotic Woman, cuz’ I have some very special moves, and I can totally beat you with them!” Zowe exclaimed and hit Seymour with her fighting moves. “I warned you.”

“Just ignore her, she’s doing fine,” Cam said to Strezz, and they continue through their path.

“I don’t play games,” Seymour said and went inside Dark Light and aimed fire at Zowe making her fly into Bruce, Monique, and Shazza’s jail cell, with the door locked.

“Look who just showed up!” Monique said sarcastically.

“This is hopeless! I’m never getting out of here!” Zowe exclaimed. "You better come back here, Seymour, if that's your real name!"

“He’s just holding us captive, we’re not in custody or anything,” said Bruce. “Since there’s one guy around here…."

"Save it for later, or at least save it for until the time is right," Monique said. "There's no time for a kissing game or something."

“Yeah, bad idea, but no worries now! Strezz will save us!” Bruce said.

Back to where the vents are, Cam uses his transceiver again. “Zack, the banana has split, once again.” Cam said.

“Even though this will be an utter failure, but I have a good distraction against that wannabe,” Zack then ‘raised the volume.’ Seymour heard it and found Zack with a ‘ski’ mask, and did some psycho noises while Seymour was following him. Meanwhile….

Bruce was using a harmonica while Monique was staining the jail bars with a mug.

“Where’d you get that harmonica?” Monique asked.

“I don’t know, I guess it came with my suitcase,” Bruce said.

The scene was at Strezz, Cam, and Marina in the air vent.

“Cam, I think you have no idea what you’re doing,” Strezz said.

“I’m a crime investigator, spy, stalker, whatever you call it, and those kinds of people are smart enough to see what they’re doing!” Cam exclaimed. Then a slide was formed and then Cam and Marina appeared in the cell, “Didn’t see that coming.”

Strezz left the area where Cam and Marina took the ‘slide.’

“Cam, is that really you?!” Monique said with belief.

“Wow, Cam. What’s the big deal about him?” Bruce thought.

“You’re just jealous,” Monique said. Now we see Zack near the cell. Zack got in and closed the door himself.

“Zack, you can’t turn yourself in!” Zowe said. “And we should’ve had our chance if you didn’t close that door.”

“Well of course I’m letting myself in, it’s so that Seymour person would shut the hell up about Z-Storm,” Zack replied.

“You too, I mean…aren’t you suppose to be in prison?” Bruce wondered.

“Well, I’m in prison, now.” Zack said referring to Seymour’s prison.

“And sadly, it’s only up to Strezz to rescue all of us,” said Cam, “Since he’s the only one in that air vent.”

Strezz was walking around the vent and fell into an area which is like 300 yards away from his friends. Seymour then appeared in front of him.

“Guess you didn’t suspect me being around here don’t you, I’m not giving up,” Seymour said.

“Actually I did suspect you, better than dragging this Z-Storm suit all the way here,” Strezz said. He realized that it was still raining. "I'm not sure how I succeeded with that, but it doesn't matter right now."

Strezz then began to pilot Z-Storm and attacked Seymour once again and flew to find his friends caged up where he would then free them.

“Who are you?” Zowe asked.

“Your personal guardian,” Strezz answered.

“And you sound like Strezz, awkward,” said Zowe.

“Does anybody want to hop on me unless anyone here is a good jogger?” Strezz said.

Cam hid in the air vent up the ceiling; Bruce and Monique decide to run from Seymour, along with Zack, Marina, Shazza, and Zowe on Z-Storm. “I’ll be carried out, since I don’t want to kill my heels,” said Zowe.

Strezz/Z-Storm had his laser blade and distinguishes Seymour/Dark Light by a margin, Strezz advices Bruce and Monique to keep running. Seymour was next to inflicting damage on Strezz/Z-Storm. The passengers almost fell. Then an alarm sound went off, the hide out was flooding. Seymour hits Strezz once again. Bruce and Monique find an escape.

“Bruce and Moe are out, peace!” Bruce said and the escape pod vacuums both of them up and back into Shellside Shores.

Strezz advices the passengers to hang on, he was almost at the escape vent which is where the route Cam took. Cam was splashed with water and was splashes back up in the surface and into Shellside Shores.

Strezz notices the lid from the hide out which he and co. broke. He takes it back and lifts into the surface and into Shellside Shores and closed the hide out exit/entrance.

“Is Seymour going to be alright?” Monique wondered.

“He will, big time,” Strezz replied. The clouds were clearing up Strezz flew up in a palm tree and fell out of it.

“Strezz, there you are, but where’s that Z-Storm person? Marina said, clueless.

“I don’t know, if he’s a hero, he’s larger than life, and that’s the kind of heroic justice people like Z-Storm have,” Strezz replied, still lying.

"I don't know what he's talking about, but you'll understand if you're into the comics," Bruce said about Strezz.

The scene was now at night in Sal’s hut.

“It will be long before we can get out of here,” Monique said.

“Strezz and company, we have a guest,” said Sal. Monique opened the door.

“Hi, do I know you?” Monique asked that person.

“No,” Monique then slammed the door after the person's response.

“Seriously now?” Bruce said.

“He did say that he doesn’t know us,” Monique replied. Bruce then opened the door.

“Who are you, you have any gifts?” Bruce asked.

“Maybe, on second note, I’m Captain Tide,” he said.

“Captain Tide, huh? Welcome to our hut,” said Shazza.

“I’m the one that almost got drowned when that ship got demolished. I’m not sure if I have any gifts, but I think there were some leftover on the ship, but I’ll check my desk,” Captain Tide said.

“How long is he going to stay here?” Bruce questioned.

“I don’t know, days, weeks….” Sal thought.

“Months?” Monique said.

“Maybe just one month,” Sal replied.

"Not bad to have someone with very little substance," said Monique.

Strezz and co. then heard a scream. Strezz came to see what happened, the scream was Zowe covered in blotches.

“You touched a piece of poison oak didn’t you?” Strezz said.

“Of course, and it happened to be right here,” Zowe referred to Sal’s windowsill plants.

“You grow poison oak?” Strezz said to Sal.

“It’s to kill strangers in my way, I was going to pelt one at Captain Tide, but I realized he’s not a stranger.” Sal replied.

“Well that's odd, by the way, do you have four extra bunks?” Strezz asked.

“Sure, anybody’s welcome,” Sal said with convenience.

It was near midnight now, some of them said their good-nights and all that, in the end, and they all took a snooze. Except Bruce and Monique, which are considered as night people.

2. Not-So Rescue Rangers

“Zowe, I’d never expect you to arrive here. How exactly were you conned?” Strezz asked

“Some guy, black shirt, shady attitude,” Zowe referred. “I was going to fly to Seaside Shores, until he, the pilot kicked me off the zeppelin.”

“Seymour?” Strezz thought.

”Who the hell is that guy?” Zowe was confused.

“Oh nothing, I was thinking that it can be a good name for him,” Strezz lied however. “Our island is your island, I’ll get you to Sal’s hut and we’ll eventually investigate on Bruce and Moe’s disappearance.”

“Those guys were on this island too and they’re held captive?” Zowe thought. “I’ve never been happier, carry my bags please,” Zowe continued. Strezz could barely breathe when he tried carrying Zowe’s case.

“What do you have in this tank, people?” Strezz asked.

”Yes, thanks for reminding me, Cam! Marina! Zack!” Zowe called out. Cam was first to get out.

”More castaways, are you nuts?” Strezz said.

“Consider me a good one; I know everything that will surround you?” Cam said to Strezz.

”Like what?”

“That’s classified my liege,” Cam continued. “And so, who am I? It’s clear that I am nowhere…” Cam then leaves the scene.

“Strezz, I didn’t know you could end up here, as long as I’m here, well….we’re safe,” Marina said hugging Strezz.

”Yeah, but I just want to point out that we’re going to be here for, I don’t know, forever,” Strezz replied. Zack was last.

”Zack, aren’t you suppose to be in prison?” Strezz questioned.

“Zowe is good at busting people out, don’t speak of it,” Zack answered.

“Okay then….”

“And who is that girl in which we never heard of?” Zowe asked.

“This is Shazza, part Australian, part country?” Strezz thought.

“I guess you’re right, well I’m bored, and what do you mates want to do?” Shazza said.

“Get out of here?” Zowe replied.

“Find Bruce and Moe?” Strezz replied.

“Die in a ditch?” Zack replied.

“Strezz has a point, we won’t give up, and we will search high, and low.” Shazza said.

“Hmm, I don’t know why they call it a beach, the sand is real sturdy,” Zowe pointed out.

”Thanks for pointing that out, the sand hasn’t been smooth the whole time I was here, like if there was a secret-“ Strezz said and was interrupted when a trapdoor caused the six to fall. “BUTTON!” Strezz exclaimed.

Strezz fell first, and then Cam, Marina, Shazza, and Zack, in this case, four of them fell on Strezz, while Zowe fell on the other side. “Missed!” Strezz taunted. Then Zowe’s briefcase fell on Strezz’s head. Strezz mumbled after getting crushed by it.

The scene switches to Strezz and co. in the corridor of the secret hideout.

“Strezz, are you okay?” Marina asked.

“If you mean the fact that Zowe’s case almost dismantled my face, I’m alright,” Strezz replied. “What else was in that briefcase of yours Zowe?”

“I don’t know, barbells,” Zowe answered. Strezz and co. then heard some noise from the corridor.

“Should we be able to guard those peasants of yours, sir?” One of Seymour’s servants said.

“Of course, I have bigger fish to fry, especially some 14 year old known as Z-Storm,” Seymour replied.

“Aw man, right place at the wrong time, we found Seymour,” Strezz said.

“He looks like the one that pushed me off a plane from like two hundred feet, I knew he was real,” Zowe said. Then a beeping noise is heard.

“What is that mysterious ticking noise?” Zack said annoyed.

“Well it’s obvious, it tells us when Z-“Shazza was shushed by Strezz.

“She’s crazy, it’s particularly something that would go,” Strezz then began a tune, “Strezz, Strezz, Strezz Stormond,” Strezz stopped and then threw the jacket into the ground, in which the jacket forms into Z-Storm.

“I give up, what is that?” Zowe asked, referring to Z-Storm.

“It’s a replica of Z-Storm, I found it somewhere in Comic Con, I have no idea what it does,” Strezz once again lies.

Cam then appears from an air vent and causes Strezz and co. to jump with surprise.

“I know what’s happening!” Cam exclaimed.

“If it has to do with Z-Storm, then yes, thank you very much,” Strezz said.

“You know Seymour huh? Well, he’s planning something nasty, and I came up with a tactic,” Cam replied.

”Whatever it is, I predict that it would not work,” Strezz replied.

“Just get in the vent,” Strezz and co. got inside the air duct to see what Cam has got to explain.

“Okay Cameron, what’s the 911?” Zowe said.

“I have a foolproof plan, starting with the distraction, who wants to be the distraction?” Cam asked.

”On the record, I will be, no one can catch the clutches of Zack…whatever my last name is,” Zack replied.

“Strezz, Marina, and I will travel through the air vent, I got some special operations for Shazza and Zowe,” said Cam.

“Like the tunnel of love?” Marina thought.

“Seriously, I have no idea what you’re talking about,” Strezz said to Marina. “So, what do you have planned for Shazza and Zowe?”

”Shazza, you’ll find Bruce and Monique, and make it quick.” Cam said to Shazza.

”Thanks mate, I’m good at finding,” Shazza commented.

“And speaking of special operations, can I have a code name?” Zowe asked. “Can my purse have a code name?” She continued.

“Okay then, Zowe, your codename is….Psychotic Woman because I like calling you that, you’re the back-up, you find Bruce and Monique when Shazza is in danger,” Cam explained. “Let’s get this show on the road.”

*Video Journal*

Strezz: Three days. Three days and I already had enough. What’s wrong with those guys anyway? They’ve been pretty fine since grade school and all, but…

Cam: Is that a surveillance camera?

Strezz: No, this is camera to express our inner thoughts of being stuck in this abandoned island.

Cam: Well, I don’t care; I’m shutting this thing off!

Strezz: Cam! (The camera turned off immediately)

*End*

“In hindsight, you four are the worst kind of castaways in the history of this beach,” Strezz said in the air ducts.

Shazza drops out of the air duct and sneaks in the hideout without notice. She finds Bruce and Monique caged.

“Bruce, Moe! Guess whose back!” Shazza said.

”Well thank goodness, can you get us out now?” Monique asked.

”No problem,” Shazza then unlocked the cellar and came inside with Bruce and Monique on her side when Shazza took a step forward to get out of the cellar, the cellar was locked.

“For a good friend who came her to safe us conveniently, you’re still gullible enough to realize something predictable is going to happen,” Monique said to Shazza.

“Hello peasants of Z-Storm,” said Seymour.

”To be honest, I have nothing to do with what I don’t care,” Monique pointed out.

”Why do you hate us so?” Bruce said.

“I just want Z-Storm, and since I have uh, this girl as evidence, maybe she knows where that rascal is,” said Seymour.

“Well, I demand a lawyer!” Monique said.

“Well, what if I said I was your lawyer and the lawyer, technically me, says too bad, I want you guys to stay here until I find Z-Storm,” Seymour replied.

“Does the judge only have the right to do that?” Bruce thought.

“Fine, I’m also your judge,” Seymour continued. Seymour then heard a noise. “I’ll be right back, don’t move, or be killed,” Seymour left.

“Shazza: eliminated,” Cam said, “I’ll use my transceiver to give Zowe the signal.”

“You have a transceiver with you? I’ve been thinking this place would suck with you guys, but you’re lucky,” Strezz said to Cam.

“Yes Cam, I have Plan B right here,” Zowe then notices she’s above Strezz, Cam, and Marina. Zowe then finds Seymour and blocks him. “Not so fast, punk! I’ve been hired to protect anything from danger and there’s nothing you can do about it!” She exclaimed.

Seymour then threw a gavel at Zowe.

“You know what they say, never mess with Psychotic Woman, cuz’ I have a barbell filled purse and I’m not afraid to whack you with it!” Zowe exclaimed and hit Seymour with her purse. “I warned you.”

“How can Zowe fit something heavy into that thing and carry it with no problem?” Strezz wondered.

“Just ignore her, she’s doing fine,” Cam replied.

“I don’t play games,” Seymour said and went inside Dark Light and aimed fire at Zowe making her fly into Bruce, Monique, and Shazza’s jail cell, with the door locked.

“Look who just showed up!” Monique said sarcastically.

“This is hopeless! I’m never getting out of here!” Zowe exclaimed.

“He’s just holding us captive, we’re not in custody or anything,” said Bruce. “Since there’s one guy around here….who wants to kiss me?”

“Okay,” said Shazza.

“Yuck,” Monique and Zowe both said.

“Yeah, bad idea, but no worries now! Strezz will save us!” Bruce said.

Back to where the vents are, Cam uses his transceiver again. “Zack, the banana has split, once again.” Cam said.

“Even though this will be an utter failure, but I have a good distraction against that wannabe,” Zack then ‘raised the volume.’ Seymour heard it and found Zack with a ‘ski’ mask, and did some psycho noises while Seymour was following him. Meanwhile….

3. Nature Watch

By the time it was morning, it was already breakfast time, Strezz and co. munched on some regular oatmeal made by Sal.

So, this is what you call oatmeal?” Zowe asked.

“What, you don’t like it?” Sal said.

“Well, I’m not a fan, and it tastes too dry, like it was from the ground,” Zowe replied.

“Well, putting aside Zowe’s food criticism, but there’s one thing we need to do,” Bruce said. “Now, even though it doesn’t sound like fun, but how about we find stuff for our survival?” Bruce said.

“Count me out, I already found something,” Zack said sarcastically and held out and played his gaming system.

“And how would we do that?” Monique said.

“I have no idea, but I think someone like Z-Storm can teach you a thing or two,” said Cam.

Through that sentence, Monique already wanted to snap and exclaimed, “Okay, that’s it! If you want to survive, I’m going to let you guys do it, the hard way!” Monique said, and then dramatic music played.

“What do you mean the hard way?” Marina asked.

“Please, you’re acting like this was my fault,” said Bruce. Almost everybody turned their heads at Bruce.

Now taking place outside, Bruce can be seen, who inadvertently knocks over a palm tree and the tree almost fell on the hut, which brings to the subject of Bruce’s faults.

“At least it fell on a perfect angle,” said Bruce.

“So Moe, what is the hard way that you brought up?” Strezz wondered.

“Camping out overnight with effort, not with your silly technology, and besides, I’ll be taking that!” Monique then snagged Strezz’s jacket, “Possibly the main cause of making this place go into havoc.”

“Dear lord, I hate camping out,” Zowe complained.

“You’re in luck, since you, Cam, Marina, and Zack don’t have to do with Z-Storm, do whatever it is that you want to do,” Monique replied.

“So you and the others are just going to leave us around the beach alone until you come back?” Cam said.

“Whatever,” Zowe then left to the spot where Strezz surfs.

Strezz was at the waves also, but after a few spontaneous tricks through his surfboard, he fell through one of the tidal waves.

“So, you’re camping out overnight with you’re friends,” Marina said to Strezz.

“Sure, if that’s what Moe wants, and what she also wants is peace from the word Z-Storm, if I haven’t found that jacket, I would’ve been on her side,” Strezz replied and left.

“Well, stay away from sea bears,” Marina said.

“I won’t Marina, obviously,” Strezz replied. The scene was at the jungle along with Strezz, Bruce, Monique, Shazza, and Sal.

“Shazza, what are you doing with your own surfboard?” Monique asked.

“To roast S’mores, only if we had some bark and a fire,” Shazza answered, with Smores and an open grill. Monique put her board in the “unwanted box.”

“Survive with effort, not with any single gadgets,” Monique replied.

“Yes mate.”

“Moe, there may be a time I declare the words, “I told you so,” since it’s going to any time sooner,” said Bruce.

“Do you know when the next rain shower is, mister?” Monique replied.

“Not until the morning,” Bruce answered.

“Oh, I give thanks to you Bruce!”

“Why do you say that?”

“In a term that means the fact that there’s a chance that Z-Storm won’t activate until tomorrow? Yes, but not in a way I’m googly eyed over you, that won’t happen.”

”Monique, this is crap,” Sal said.

”Of course, at least in all your views, but I warned you about the hard way. First we need to find stuff we need to build a fire,” Monique declared.

“We need some bark if we need a fire, that’s second grade, mate,” Shazza said.

“This is still beginning to be unpleasant,” Strezz thought.

The scene was now at Zowe, Cam, Marina, and Zack.

“I’m so bored, so this is the thanks we get while Strezz and the others go to “camp goofy world,” Zowe said and kicked the sand.

“So what, we can always mess around with the things left over in the unwanted box,” Marina said. She realized that the box was apart from the jungle area. “Monique must have been real strict about this.”

“Yes, hope has struck us. I’d never thought I could thank Monique for one, but I might as well have done it! I call Shazza’s board!” Zowe said and then grabbed Shazza’s surfboard out of the box.

“The Z-Storm jacket huh? Dibs!” Zack said.

“Wouldn’t that be too difficult for you? Marina said to Zack. “Neither one of us know how it functions. I bet Bruce’s device is simpler.” Marina then grabbed Bruce’s conductor.

”Monique’s power glove huh, that is so late 80’s to me, but worth a shot,” Cam then grabbed the glove.

Zowe was on Shazza’s surfboard and on the waves. She was shredding like she never shredded before, even though she never had. Then a tidal wave occurs in front of her.

“Look out Zowe, a tidal wave is coming!” Marina said.

”What? I can’t hear you over the noise of a tidal wave!” Zowe said and was about to fall. Marina then used the conductor and lightning shocked Zowe and made her hair frizz.

“I don’t know why Monique would leave the box around us in the first place,” said Marina.

“So Cam, you have Monique’s power glove…” Zack was saying.

“It’s for my knees or whatever it is I don’t care about, so shut up,” Cam replied.

“Speaking of which, why won’t this damned thing work?” Zack said almost trying to murder the jacket. There was a label that said “this jacket is drizzle powered,” Zack then said, “Stupid weather system.”

Back to Strezz, Monique, Bruce, and Sal: it was nighttime and a fire was prepared. Monique was roasting a banana.

“Hmm, roasted bananas are your specialty?” Bruce thought.

“It just occurred to me, since we have a fire, why not roast, and speaking of which, why not fry the food we just found?” Monique replied.

“Why can’t we roast marshmallows?” Sal said.

“Think about it, you guys remembered my exact words.” Monique responded.

“Also, what does this campout have to prove?” Strezz asked.

”The fact that Z-Storm isn’t built for everything,” Monique answered. “Go figure.”

“If Strezz had the jacket then it would be for everything,” said Bruce.

Well, my physics state that Z-Storm is a matter of luck of survival instead of a chance of survival. If we survived regularly without a jacket lying around with rain, then there’s a chance that no Z-Storm equals predictable Mother Nature and plain old skills of survival and common sense, did I make myself clear?” Monique explained.

“Me is confused,” Bruce replied.

“Maybe if there’s something to the unexpected, then Z-Storm is an effort to survival, but you’re right, he isn’t made for everything,” said Strezz.

“Well, I’m going to sleep, you four just chill until your eyes putrefy,” Monique then went inside the tent and slept.

”Usually, she’s a night person,” Strezz said about Monique.

”I think it’s a type of effort for survival,” Shazza replied.

The scene was back to Zowe and her friends.

“Hmm, it’s almost a day without those twerps who are not Strezz, I’ve never been happier,” Zowe was on her bunk. “The best part, we have the hut to ourselves, and Captain Tide.”

“You guys just relax, I just feel like vandalizing something and pretending it never happened,” Zack then broke something out of no practical reason.

Back to Strezz and co. Monique and the rest get out of the tent and were startled when a mysterious agent of Seymour appeared. Monique screamed apparently.

“Do you know who I am?” The shady guy said.

“Hell no, and is there any reason why you’re here?” Monique asked. “You don’t have to startle me like that.”

My name is…Hector. Agent of Seymour,” he replied. “You better run away or stay still, because I’m still going to have you guys held captive,” he continued.

“Well, I don’t have to do with anything,” said Sal.

“And you? You’re free to go, since I have no idea,” Hector said to Sal.

Strezz and the others ran for their lives.

“I’m right, but I discovered one flaw, you can have the jacket!” Monique said to Strezz.

“But it’s not an effort of survival,” Strezz replied. “It’s sort of like what you’ve said.”

“Don’t care; Camping is over, later!” Monique said.

Strezz and the others look for the things they need in the “unwanted box.”

“It’s empty, we’ve been robbed!” Monique said, “It’s nothing but marshmallows in there!”

“Hmm, we never been robbed, unless it’s…Zowe, Cam, Marina, and Zack,” said Strezz. He then realized that Zowe, Marina, Cam were messing the stuff Strezz and co. had in the box, except for Zack, who is having trouble activating the jacket.

“Strezz, you’re back from camping,” said Marina.

“Besides, this jacket won’t work, this is a rip-off!” Zack exclaimed, then it started to rain and Z-Storm was activated with Zack inside it. “Well, it’s about time!”

“You guys have no idea what you’re doing!” Strezz said.

“Well, we have no idea that guy is,” Zowe said referring to Hector, who has approached the group.

“Zack, since you’re the one with Z-Storm, I’ll instruct you with how it works,” Strezz said.

“You’re not the boss of me, I’m a juvenile delinquent,” Zack then pressed some random buttons to hit Hector.

“You know what, I’m piloting,” Strezz said before pushing Zack out of Z-Storm and getting inside of it.

“So you bear the powers of Z-Storm,” Hector said to Strezz.

“Of course, I’m all that,” Strezz replied.

Hector was inside an armor made of red. He was Crimson Kill. Strezz brought out his laser blade and knocked Hector into the ground. Then Hector/Crimson Kill used a double laser beam, making Strezz end up doing the same. Strezz used his lightning power and then Hector flies back and then flies higher and dropped something which he calls…the crimson missile. It exploded on Strezz, and he then got back up. His laser blade was brought out again, and he was showing persistence this time. Hector was about to activate another missile, then Strezz quickly used his plasma cannon. The missile was activated and hits Hector. Strezz then used his lightning power once again. Then Hector uses his new trick: the blood fist. From the one hit from the blood fist, Strezz was bleeding, from the inside. Then another missile was launched and hits Strezz this time. Strezz was on the ground, the bleeding stopped, and Strezz is back in action and then releases his next plasma cannon attack. To top it all off, is a laser blade thrown from above and to hit Hector in the air, the blade pressed a button that pulls the helmet off. Hector was in the water, and almost drowned. He was defeated. Strezz realizes that the button in the chest also deactivates Z-Storm; he presses it before the rain has stopped.

”I will be back, don’t forget it,” Hector then got back inside Crimson Kill and flew off.

“Wow, just wow,” Marina commented. “What’s with that guy?”

“Yes, it’s true, I’m Z-Storm,” Strezz said.

“And a cool one too,” Marina replied.

“A cool guy with cool abilities and a guy with cool looks, my new favorite,” said Zowe.

“So your enemy is Crimson Kill slash Hector? I’ll be in my study,” Cam said then Monique tugged Cam.

“You’re into this too?” Monique didn’t want to know if Cam is involved with Z-Storm.

”Z-Storm, am I correct? Well, I don’t give a damn, I’m a criminal investigator, now will you please,” Cam then left the scene.

“So…who’s up for S’mores?” Strezz asked.

“Fine, but for anyone who is involved with Z-Storm, I still disagree,” Monique replied.

----------------------

A scene shows Spongebob in his pineapple house, set in Bikini Bottom.

"Hmm...I wonder what Strezz is up to lately," said Spongebob. "I know he'll respond...but he hasn't talked in a very long time...not even when I tried to call him days ago."

Spongebob was thinking about what happened to Strezz, but things are turning out to be unpredictable for him. "I think I should tell Patrick, Squidward, Mr. Krabs about this, and maybe I'll also get Sandy to see if she can help with locating him." He continued. "I hope...he's alright."

3.Z-Storm: 0, Mother Nature: 1

It was breakfast time, Strezz and co. munched on some regular oatmeal.

ÔÇ£So, this is what you call oatmeal?ÔÇØ Zowe asked.

ÔÇ£What, you donÔÇÖt like it?ÔÇØ Sal said.

ÔÇ£Well, IÔÇÖm not a fan, and it tastes too dry, like it was from the ground,ÔÇØ Zowe replied.

*Video Journal*

Zowe: I know how Monique feels now, sadly.

*End*

ÔÇ£And oh yes, even though it doesnÔÇÖt sound like fun, but how about we find stuff for our survival?ÔÇØ Bruce said.

ÔÇ£Count me out, I already found something,ÔÇØ Zack said sarcastically and held out and played his Fishtendo DS.

ÔÇ£And how would we do that?ÔÇØ Monique said.

ÔÇ£I have no idea, but I think someone like Z-Storm can teach you a thing or two,ÔÇØ said Cam.

ÔÇ£Okay, thatÔÇÖs it! If you want to survive, IÔÇÖm going to let you guys do it, the hard way!ÔÇØ Monique said, and then dramatic music played.

ÔÇ£Please, youÔÇÖre acting like this was my fault,ÔÇØ said Bruce. Almost everybody turned their heads at Bruce.

*Video Journal*

Bruce: So I messed up once when I mixed up on the map, what else could I mess up?

*End*

Bruce then knocks over a palm tree and the tree almost fell on the hut.

ÔÇ£At least it fell on a perfect angle,ÔÇØ said Bruce.

ÔÇ£So Moe, what is the hard way?ÔÇØ Strezz wondered.

ÔÇ£Camping out overnight with effort, not luck, and besides, IÔÇÖll be taking that!ÔÇØ Monique then snagged StrezzÔÇÖs jacket, ÔÇ£Possibly the main cause of making this place go into havoc.ÔÇØ

ÔÇ£Dear lord, I hate camping out,ÔÇØ Zowe complained.

ÔÇ£YouÔÇÖre in luck, since you, Cam, Marina, and Zack donÔÇÖt have to do with Z-Storm, do whatever it is that you want to do,ÔÇØ Monique replied.

ÔÇ£Whatever,ÔÇØ Zowe then left to the spot where Strezz surfs.

Strezz was at the waves also, but after a few spontaneous tricks or something, he fell.

ÔÇ£So, youÔÇÖre camping out overnight with youÔÇÖre friends,ÔÇØ Marina said to Strezz.

ÔÇ£Sure, if thatÔÇÖs what Moe wants, and what she also wants is peace from the word Z-Storm, if I havenÔÇÖt found that jacket, I wouldÔÇÖve been on her side,ÔÇØ Strezz replied and left.

ÔÇ£Well, stay away from sea bears,ÔÇØ Marina said.

ÔÇ£I wonÔÇÖt Marina, obviously,ÔÇØ Strezz replied. The scene was at the jungle along with Strezz, Bruce, Monique, Shazza, and Sal.

ÔÇ£Shazza, what are you doing with your authentic surfboard?ÔÇØ Monique asked.

ÔÇ£To roast SÔÇÖmores, only if we had some bark and a fire,ÔÇØ Shazza answered, with SÔÇÖmores and an open grill. Monique put her board in the ÔÇ£unwanted box.ÔÇØ

ÔÇ£Survive with effort, not luck,ÔÇØ Monique replied.

ÔÇ£Yes mate.ÔÇØ

Monique then saw Sal with SÔÇÖmores.

ÔÇ£Uh yes, itÔÇÖs my specialty, sorry mÔÇÖam,ÔÇØ Sal then put the SÔÇÖmores in the ÔÇ£unwanted box.ÔÇØ

ÔÇ£Moe, there may be a time I pronounce the words, ÔÇ£I told you so,ÔÇØ since itÔÇÖs going to any time sooner,ÔÇØ said Bruce.

ÔÇ£Do you know when the next rain shower is, mister?ÔÇØ Monique replied.

ÔÇ£Not until the morning,ÔÇØ Bruce answered.

ÔÇ£Oh, I love you Bruce!ÔÇØ

ÔÇ£You really think so?ÔÇØ

ÔÇ£In a term that means the fact that thereÔÇÖs a chance that Z-Storm wonÔÇÖt activate until tomorrow? Yes, but not in a way IÔÇÖm googly eyed over you, that wonÔÇÖt happen.ÔÇØ

ÔÇØMonique, this is crap,ÔÇØ Sal said.

ÔÇØOf course, I warned you about the hard way. First we need to find stuff we need to build a fire,ÔÇØ Monique declared.

ÔÇ£We need some bark if we need a fire, thatÔÇÖs second grade, mate,ÔÇØ Shazza said.

ÔÇ£This is still beginning to be retarded,ÔÇØ Strezz thought.

The scene was now at Zowe, Cam, Marina, and Zack.

ÔÇ£IÔÇÖm so bored, so this is the thanks we get while Strezz and the others go to ÔÇ£camp goofy world,ÔÇØ Zowe said and kicked the sand.

ÔÇ£So what, we can always mess around with the things left over in the unwanted box,ÔÇØ Marina said. She realized that the box was apart from the jungle area.

ÔÇ£Yes, hope has struck us, thank you mother nature! I call ShazzaÔÇÖs board!ÔÇØ Zowe said and then grabbed ShazzaÔÇÖs surfboard out of the box.

ÔÇ£The Z-Storm jacket huh? Dibs!ÔÇØ Zack said.

ÔÇ£Hmm, I wonder what Bruce has in mind with this thing,ÔÇØ Marina then grabbed BruceÔÇÖs conductor.

ÔÇØMoniqueÔÇÖs power glove huh, that is so late 80ÔÇÖs, but worth a shot,ÔÇØ Cam then grabbed the glove.

Zowe was on ShazzaÔÇÖs surfboard and on the waves. She was shredding like she never shredded before, even though she never had. Then a tidal wave occurs in front of her.

ÔÇ£Look out Zowe, a tidal wave is coming!ÔÇØ Marina said.

ÔÇØWhat? I canÔÇÖt hear you over the noise of a tidal wave!ÔÇØ Zowe said and was about to fall. Marina then used the conductor and lightning shocked Zowe and made her hair frizz.

ÔÇ£So thatÔÇÖs what it does,ÔÇØ said Marina.

So Cam, you have Moniques power glove Zack was saying.

ÔÇ£ItÔÇÖs for my knees or whatever it is I donÔÇÖt care about, so shut up,ÔÇØ Cam replied.

ÔÇ£Speaking of which, why wonÔÇÖt this damned thing work?ÔÇØ Zack said almost trying to murder the jacket. There was a label that said ÔÇ£this jacket is drizzle powered,ÔÇØ Zack then said, ÔÇ£Stupid economy.ÔÇØ

Back to Strezz, Monique, Bruce, and Sal: it was nighttime and a fire was prepared. Monique was roasting a banana.

ÔÇ£Hmm, roasted bananas are your specialty?ÔÇØ Bruce thought.

ÔÇ£It just occurred to me, since we have a fire, why not roast, and speaking of which, why not fry the food we just found?ÔÇØ Monique replied.

ÔÇ£Why canÔÇÖt we roast marshmallows?ÔÇØ Sal said.

ÔÇ£Remembered what I said about surviving without luck but effort? And itÔÇÖs somewhat comical how you grow marshmallows from the ground, get your graham crackers and chocolate imported with your private jet and get well, SÔÇÖmores,ÔÇØ Monique explained.

*Video Journal*

Sal is seen eating SÔÇÖmores secretly, inside the tent.

Sal: DonÔÇÖt tell Monique, okay?

*End*

ÔÇ£Also, what does this campout have to prove?ÔÇØ Strezz asked.

ÔÇØThe fact that Z-Storm isnÔÇÖt built for everything,ÔÇØ Monique answered.

ÔÇ£If Strezz had the jacket then it would be for everything,ÔÇØ said Bruce.

ÔÇ£Well, my physics state that Z-Storm is a matter of luck of survival instead of a chance of survival. If we survived regularly without a jacket lying around with rain, then thereÔÇÖs a chance that no Z-Storm equals predictable Mother Nature and plain old skills of survival and common sense, did I make myself clear?ÔÇØ Monique explained.

ÔÇ£Me is confused,ÔÇØ Bruce replied.

ÔÇ£Maybe if thereÔÇÖs something to the unexpected, then Z-Storm is an effort to survival, but youÔÇÖre right, he isnÔÇÖt made for everything,ÔÇØ said Strezz.

ÔÇ£Well, IÔÇÖm going to sleep, you four just chill until your eyes putrefy,ÔÇØ Monique then went inside the tent and slept.

ÔÇØUsually, sheÔÇÖs a night person,ÔÇØ Strezz said about Monique.

ÔÇØI think itÔÇÖs a type of effort for survival,ÔÇØ Shazza replied.

The scene was back to Zowe and her friends.

ÔÇ£Hmm, itÔÇÖs almost a day without those twerps who are not Strezz, IÔÇÖve never been happier,ÔÇØ Zowe was on her bunk. ÔÇ£The best part, we have the hut to ourselves, and Captain Tide.ÔÇØ

ÔÇ£You guys just relax, I just feel like vandalizing something and pretending it never happened,ÔÇØ Zack then broke something and took out his Fishtendo DS.

Back to Strezz and co. Monique and the rest get out of the tent and were startled when a mysterious agent of Seymour appeared. Monique screamed apparently.

ÔÇ£Do you know who I am?ÔÇØ The shady guy said.

ÔÇ£Hell no, and is there any reason why youÔÇÖre here?ÔÇØ Monique asked.

My name isHector. Agent of Seymour, he replied. You better run away for stay still, because Im still going to have you guys captive, he continued.

ÔÇ£Well, I donÔÇÖt have to do with anything,ÔÇØ said Sal.

ÔÇ£And you? YouÔÇÖre free to go, since I have no idea,ÔÇØ Hector said to Sal.

Strezz and the others ran for their lives.

ÔÇ£IÔÇÖm right, but I discovered one flaw, you can have the jacket!ÔÇØ Monique said to Strezz.

ÔÇ£But itÔÇÖs not an effort of survival,ÔÇØ Strezz replied.

ÔÇ£DonÔÇÖt care; Camping is over, later!ÔÇØ Monique said.

Strezz and the others look for the things they need in the ÔÇ£unwanted box.ÔÇØ

ÔÇ£ItÔÇÖs empty, weÔÇÖve been robbed!ÔÇØ Monique said, ÔÇ£ItÔÇÖs nothing but SÔÇÖmores!ÔÇØ

Hmm, we never been robbed, unless itsZowe, Cam, Marina, and Zack, said Strezz. He then realized that Zowe, Marina, Cam were messing the stuff Strezz and co. had in the box, except for Zack, who is having trouble activating the jacket.

ÔÇ£Strezz, youÔÇÖre back from camping,ÔÇØ said Marina.

ÔÇ£Besides, this stupid jacket wonÔÇÖt work, this is a rip-off!ÔÇØ Zack exclaimed, then it started to rain and Z-Storm was activated with Zack inside it. ÔÇ£Well, itÔÇÖs about time!ÔÇØ

ÔÇ£You guys have no idea what youÔÇÖre doing!ÔÇØ Strezz said.

ÔÇ£Well, we have no idea that guy is,ÔÇØ Zowe said referring to Hector, who has approached the group.

ÔÇ£Zack, since youÔÇÖre the one with Z-Storm, IÔÇÖll instruct you with how it works,ÔÇØ Strezz said.

ÔÇ£YouÔÇÖre not the boss of me, IÔÇÖm a juvenile delinquent,ÔÇØ Zack then pressed some random buttons to hit Hector.

ÔÇ£Never mind, for the heck of it,ÔÇØ Strezz then pushed Zack out of Z-Storm, and got inside it.

ÔÇ£So you bear the powers of Z-Storm,ÔÇØ Hector said to Strezz.

ÔÇ£Of course, IÔÇÖm all that,ÔÇØ Strezz replied.

Hector was inside an armor made of red. He was Crimson Kill. Strezz brought out his laser blade and knocked Hector into the ground. Then Hector/Crimson Kill used a double laser beam, making Strezz end up doing the same. Strezz used his lightning power and then Hector flies back and then flies higher and dropped something which he callsthe crimson missile. It exploded on Strezz, and he then got back up.

Strezz realizes that the button in the chest also deactivates Z-Storm; he presses it before the rain has stopped.

ÔÇØI will be back, donÔÇÖt forget it,ÔÇØ Hector then got back inside Crimson Kill and flew off.

ÔÇ£Wow, just wow,ÔÇØ Marina commented.

ÔÇ£Yes, itÔÇÖs true, IÔÇÖm Z-Storm,ÔÇØ Strezz said.

ÔÇ£And a cool one too,ÔÇØ Marina replied.

ÔÇ£A cool guy with cool abilities and a guy with cool looks, my new favorite,ÔÇØ said Zowe.

ÔÇ£So your enemy is Crimson Kill slash Hector? IÔÇÖll be in my study,ÔÇØ Cam said then Monique tugged Cam.

ÔÇ£You two?ÔÇØ Monique didnÔÇÖt want to know if Cam was involved into Z-Storm.

ÔÇØZ-Storm, am I correct? Well, I donÔÇÖt give a damn, IÔÇÖm a criminal investigator, now will you please,ÔÇØ Cam then left the scene.

Sowhos up for Smores? Strezz asked.

ÔÇ£Fine, but for anyone who is involved with Z-Storm, I still disagree,ÔÇØ Monique replied.

[Steel Sponge]

4. Into the Abyss

Strezz is seen with a bowl of fruits. “Here you everybody, dig in, but don’t overdue it,” Strezz said to the eight castaways.

“No thanks, I wanted a fruit salad,” said Zowe.

“This is just plain awful, I wanted a regular day and I couldn’t just succeed!” Monique exclaimed.

“Come now, it will all be better once we get out here,” said Bruce.

It has been four in a half days and I already reached stage two: depression, Monique thought.

------------------

Monique and Cam were elsewhere, in the jungle. “So this is a regular and simple nature walk,” said Monique.

“You know I’ve never been out on this before,” Cam replied.

“You’re lucky Bruce is nowhere to be seen, I’ll be right back,” Monique then left the scene.

“Better not be one of those guys who screw up, I’m going to fetch some stuff while you’re in the aroma of nature,” Cam said and left as well. Zack ran by.

“So you’re having a sweet, hot, day with the she-devil,” Zack said to Cam.

“Scamps like you better leave me alone, and let me be in my study,” Cam said and left Zack alone. “It’s just a natural walk around the jungle.”

Zack turned his head to Sal as he appeared.

“What do you want? Your queries bother me a lot, ever since Strezz was Z-Storm,” Zack said.

“Well, now that you mentioned it, I just, I don’t know, want to do some juvenile bonding,” Sal replied.

“As if, I’m not related to any freaking Jamaican, or whatever class you are in,” Zack continued. “I say I want to order you, and I order you to fetch me some water.”

”Great idea, and you can build another shelter for me,” said Sal.

“I have no idea why you want me to do that, but you don’t scare me, I’m just going to watch instead,” Zack then left to see Cam. “Okay, spy guy, Sal is going to fetch us some supplies while I just sit right here, do nothing, and watch your latest spy schemes fail, and besides what is with that working laptop?”

“It seems that Seymour is connecting from his headquarters to Shellside Shores,” Cam replied. “I will watch his every move; I’m suspicious for hidden enemies.”

“Oh yeah, what suspicious enemies would you be referring to?” Zack asked.

“Well it’s simply shocking, but it’s-“Cam was cut off when he heard a minor scream, which came from Monique.

“Looks like a job for Cameron to save his girlfriend,” Zack said sarcastically.

“Lies little man, I have no love,” Cam exited from his study.

“Hmm, something makes me thinks that you’re the only one who scares me,” Zack remarked.

Cam went back outside and into the jungle and sees Monique tied up by electric eels.

“To cut to the chase, I tripped on a freaking kelp stump, and by the fact that this area is inhabited by electric constrictors, I’m dead,” Monique explained.

”Well, this is very much unexpected.” Cam went to the rescue and fed the eels a poisonous leaf from Sal’s windowsill. Monique was freed.

“You…saved….me,” Monique said to Cam, “But I guess it wasn’t a big deal.” Monique was about to ask Cam to make out, but was interrupted by Marina.

“Marina, what brings you here?” Cam questioned.

“So you’ve found a love interest right?” Marina asked.

“Cam just saved me from certain doom, I don’t think it’s something to love someone for,” said Monique.

Both of them were back inside Sal’s hut, where the scene then goes to.

“Shazza, I don’t get it, Hector is able to control himself, and I just got started, is it just one drop of hydrogen that’s making me less ordinary for Z-Storm?” Strezz asked.

“Sal knows that there’s one thing that can disable that simple side-effect,” Shazza replied.

“Really, what is that certain object?”

”Wait, Sal doesn’t know, he told me that only Professor Algae knows and where “it’s” hidden.”

“Allow me two more question, where IS Professor Algae and why is it hidden?”

“Sal told me, he lives in a submarine near the abyss of Shellside Shores.” The rest of the castaways then entered Sal’s hut, except Bruce, who is still pondering.

“So, what are you guys talking about?” Marina asked.

“As long as we’re going to find Professor Algae, we’re going to the abyss,” Strezz answered.

”Meh, that sounds too dangerous. Whatever you do, don’t get yourself killed, or I’ll kill you instantly,” Zowe replied.

Sal then gasped, Zowe gasped also as they went back outside.

“Zowe, you’ve heard of the abyss?” Strezz thought.

“No, Captain Tide is filthy!” Zowe answered as she saw Captain Tide exiting from his ship with “presents.”

“Well it’s about time,” said Monique.

“So everyone, where’s Bruce?” Captain Tide asked.

“How the hell should I know? If he’s gone, he’s gone,” Zack replied.

Just then, Bruce jumped in front of Monique, almost scaring her. “Aha! I knew you were with Cam this morning!” Bruce said.

“What’s your problem, and why do you care anyways? I had a decent nature walk,” said Monique.

“So Sal, tell me about the abyss you don’t want to deal with,” said Strezz.

“Okay, I’ll tell you. Long ago, in the great abyss holds the lair of the Eternal Key, which disables any flaw of Z-Storm or any great warriors known to man, the abyss is rumored to be a dangerous place and the other side of the abyss is safe and not trap filled. That’s where Professor Algae is.” Sal explained.

“And how come you’re persuading us not to dive into the abyss?” Bruce asked.

“There are many chances where you can’t get though, many may not return, and that’s the abyss’ great history. The key is protected by the five fountains of destiny,” Sal was interrupted again.

”And why are they called the fountains of destiny?” Strezz questioned.

“As I was saying the five fountains are contained with natural capacity, they must not be disturbed,” Sal was interrupted by Monique.

”Disturbed, they’re just the great fountains of destiny,” Monique said.

”Do you kids ever let me finish?” Sal asked.

”Carry on please,” Monique replied. “But don’t expect me to listen to this story.”

”This is what each of the five fountains hold, the first one holds wills and no coordination, it can be dangerous, the second one is the fountain of youth, you all heard of that one, the third fountain is the fountain of disaster, highly unstable, the fourth one, a single tap from it can exchange your mind, and lastly, the fifth one makes anything into anything,” Sal finished.

”Well, I’m bored. What are the gifts, Captain Tide?” Bruce said.

“I found these on the ship, which I think should be very helpful,” Captain Tide then passed the castaways each a disc.

“Finally a man who cares about us,” said Zowe referring to Cam, Marina, Zack, and herself.

”But what the heck is this?” Zack said appalled. “These look like CDs I steal from someone’s house.”

“Silly me, only Professor Algae can identify them,” said Captain Tide.

“So you’re giving us discs…that ONLY Professor Algae can examine? Well, if he knows the answers to our problems, then we ought to set foot to find him,” said Strezz.

“Which makes me wonder…do you guys have any relation to this Algae person?” Bruce asked.

“So you mean that guy and our friend Sal are related, or what?” Monique was still confused.

“They formed a company called Zech Tech, Z-Storm technology and other miscellaneous utilities,” he replied.

“Whatever I’m doing, I’m going into the abyss no matter what, wish us luck Sal,” Strezz and co. then left to the shores.

”Wait, since it’s an abyss, I’m giving you guys these,” Sal handed out some goggles.

”Give me another explanation, Sal,” Bruce said referring to the goggles.

“They’re air goggles, so all of you wouldn’t drown to death,” Sal explained.

“I don’t know why I’m supposed to go to the abyss,” said Monique, “you four stay here,” Monique referred to Zowe, Cam, Marina, and Zack. Strezz and the others went underwater to find the abyss.

“They’re not going to make it….” Sal finished and left the beach.

“Again, if there’s an adventure, I want an adventure to happen!” Zowe once again kicks the sand.

”Well, I’m going back to the forest to do some harvesting as usual,” Cam left the beach and went into the jungle. Cam was ambushed when Seymour, Hector, and another nemesis appeared.

“Surprise Cameron,” the shady henchman said.

“Seymour, what is it now? Looks like you finally made my insolent brother show up,” said Cam. Then that’s where that certain somebody flashes right before his eyes. He just faced his brother again, and he’s actually one of Seymour’s, “Brother, is that really you, working for Seymour?”

“Strange coincidences, but me, Hector, and of course, your brother are here to re-arrange your mind,” Seymour replied. “But first, tell me where Strezz is.”

“Z-Storm is in the abyss, I doubt you would find him there,” Cam answered.

“Hector, go find and round up those savages, Matthew, reset Cam’s mind: the way we want it,” Seymour ordered. Hector went underwater, while Matt, Cam’s brother, was ready for Cam to engage a brain drain.

The scene switches to the abyss. It was deeper than Goo Lagoon and any other lake. There was a submarine inside the abyss that looked abandoned. Priorilly, Strezz is Z-Storm, while Bruce, Monique, and Shazza have their goggles.

“So this is the abyss, I sense no danger,” said Monique.

”I don’t think so mate, this place is booby trapped,” said Shazza. Strezz and co. were a few feet near a spiral saw, avalanching rocks, and spinning axes which leads to the submarine.

“Hmm, I could have predicted that. Hopefully, all we have to do is avoid everything and we’ll find that Algae person in no time,” Bruce said. A crimson blast is seen towards Bruce.

“Maybe we’ll start with that guy,” Strezz said referring to Hector/Crimson Kill. Strezz was ready for action, and used his trusty laser blade. Hector then used his trusty laser beams. Strezz went above and electrocuted Hector with his lightning power. Strezz flew as fast as could and went under when Hector fired a crimson missile. Strezz uses the plasma cannon to hit the missile that was about to hit him. Strezz aimed at Hector and hit him with a laser blade again. Then came a blood fist from Hector which hits Strezz. Strezz uses his electric power again, while Hector fires another missile. Hector was near the ship, but his armor got damaged from the traps, and was finished off with a plasma cannon attack.

“I see you always win, but that’s just the beginning,” Hector left and a bomb was launched underwater, the bomb exploded in a contagious crimson mist, luckily, Strezz was fine. The scene is back to where more action comes by.

“I’m going to be so glad when Strezz comes back and identifies these discs,” Zowe said. Cam showed up in front of her, Marina, and Zack.

“Cam, you’re back,” said Marina.

“Silence naives, I know you guys are companions of Z-Storm, and I’ll take offense if you try to escape from me,” Cam said. His good mind was erased.

”Crazy speech mister! I know the real Cam, and you’re not it,” Zowe replied.

”I don’t like your tone, miss! One special place for people like you is in Seymour’s headquarters,” Cam then dragged the three.

“To rain on your parade, something tells me that Seymour erased your good side, and you admit that it was Seymour,” Zack then broke free from Cam’s hands. “Good thing I learned this special criminal technique before this happened.”

Matt, Seymour’s second henchman, appeared from above in his hover boat and fired missiles at Zack, but it missed because Zack was on a palm tree.

“You did something to Cam, I know so!” Zack then grabbed on Matt and threw him off his hover boat.

Marina and Zowe were close to Seymour’s headquarters, along with Cam. Zack used a magnet, luckily Zowe and Marina had watches so now they are in Matt’s hover boat.

”Zack, you saved us from certain doom?” Marina wondered.

“I did that because Cameron is annoying and that other guy sucks, like they are related,” Zack answered. “Try and get us now, secret agent!” Zack taunted at Cam.

Zack was gullible enough to realize Cam had a jet pack filled with stuff that’s metal, which was also the fact that Cam was underneath the hover boat.

”What did you say you criminal-minded hooligan?” Cam said as he got up. Zowe and Marina screamed.

”Let’s see what else this sexy thing can do,” Zack set the boat’s speed to hyper. Cam fell of the hover boat when the speed was tampered by Zack.

”Yeah, there’s no way you can get us now!” Zowe taunted. Just then, Matt appeared on a jet pack.

”Give the hell up already!” Zack said frustrated.

”You didn’t think this would be easy, wouldn’t you?” Matt said. He then pointed to a thundercloud above, ready to strike.

”Please hurry up Strezz!” Marina said. The scene was back to Strezz, Bruce, Monique, and Shazza.

“Let’s not go under there again,” said Bruce.

”I sorry to say this, but for something dangerous, he’s right,” said Shazza.

“Well I’m not giving up for the Eternal Key,” Strezz vowed.

”And oh yes, why is the shore being sucked up like a vacuum?” Bruce wondered.

Strezz and co. noticed and screamed when the minor whirlpool captured them, and the entrance was revealed to be the “abandoned” submarine, as they are unaware that they are being captured by the man inside the vehicle.

4. Into the Abyss

Strezz is seen with a bowl of fruits. “Here you everybody, dig in, but don’t overdue it,” Strezz said to the eight castaways.

“No thanks, I wanted a fruit salad,” said Zowe.

*Video Journal*

Zowe: That guy, I always depend on him, but sometimes. Strezz is the best guy around and you all know you’re not aware of my desire to have a future relativity with Strezz. Don’t tell him whatever it is I’m saying.

*End*

“This is just plain awful, I wanted a regular, and I just couldn’t succeed!” Monique exclaimed.

“Come now, it will all be better once we get out here,” said Bruce.

*Video Journal*

Monique: It has been four in a half days and I already reached stage two: depression.

*End*

Monique and Cam were elsewhere, in the jungle. “So this is a regular and simple nature walk,” said Monique.

“You know I’ve never been out on this before,” Cam replied.

“You’re lucky Bruce is nowhere to be seen, I’ll be right back,” Monique then left the scene.

“Better not be one of those guys who screw up, I’m going to fetch some stuff while you’re in the aroma of nature,” Cam said and left as well. Zack ran by.

“So you’re having a sweet, hot, day with the she-devil,” Zack said to Cam.

“Scamps like you better leave me alone, and let me be in my study,” Cam said and left Zack alone.

Zack turned his head to Sal as he appeared.

“What do you want? Your queries bother me a lot, ever since Strezz was Z-Storm,” Zack said.

“Well, now that you mentioned it, I just, I don’t know, want to do some juvenile bonding,” Sal replied.

“As if, I’m not related to any freaking Jamaican, or whatever class you are in,” Zack continued. “I say I want to order you, and I order you to fetch me some water.”

“Juvenile slavery, great idea, you build another shelter for me,” said Sal.

“I have no idea why you want me to do that, but you don’t scare me, I’m just going to watch instead,” Zack then left to see Cam. “Okay, spy guy, Sal is going to fetch us some supplies while I just sit right here, do nothing, and watch your latest spy schemes fail, and besides what is with that working laptop?”

“It seems that Seymour is connecting from his headquarters to Shellside Shores,” Cam replied. “I will watch his every move; I’m suspicious for hidden enemies.”

“Oh yeah, like who?” Zack asked.

“Well it’s simply shocking, but it’s-“Cam was cut off when he heard a minor scream.

“Looks like a job for Cameron to save his girlfriend,” Zack said sarcastically.

“Lies little man, I have no love,” Cam exited from his study.

“Hmm, something makes me thinks that you’re the only one who scares me,” Zack remarked.

Cam went back outside and into the jungle and sees Monique tied up by electric eels.

“To cut to the chase, I tripped on a freaking tree stump, and by the fact that this area is inhabited by electric constrictors, I’m dead,” Monique explained.

Cam went to the rescue and fed the eels a poisonous leaf from Sal’s windowsill. Monique was freed.

“You…saved….me,” Monique said to Cam. Monique was about to ask Cam to make out, but was interrupted by Marina.

“Wow, that was amazing Cam, well Monique, call me crazy but you’re particular moment may never happen, sorry,” Marina said and left.

“And what makes her say that?” Monique thought.

“Only sometimes Monique, that Marina would think that,” Cam said. Both of them were back inside Sal’s hut. The scene is also at Sal’s hut.

“Shazza, I don’t get it, Hector is able to control himself, and I just got started, is it just one drop of hydrogen that’s making me less ordinary for Z-Storm?” Strezz asked.

“Sal knows that there’s one thing that can disable that simple side-effect,” Shazza replied.

“Really, what is that certain object?”

”Wait, Sal doesn’t know, he told me that only Professor Algae knows and where “it’s” hidden.”

“Allow me another question, where IS Professor Algae?”

“Sal told me, he lives in a submarine near the abyss of Shellside Shores.” The rest of the castaways then entered Sal’s hut, except Bruce, who is still pondering.

“So, what are you guys talking about?” Marina asked.

“As long as we’re going to find Professor Algae, we’re going to the abyss,” Strezz answered.

”Meh, too dangerous, whatever you do, don’t get yourself killed, or I’ll kill you instantly,” Zowe replied.

Sal then gasped, Zowe gasped also as they went back outside.

“Zowe, you’ve heard of the abyss?” Strezz thought.

“No, Captain Tide is filthy!” Zowe answered as she saw Captain Tide exiting from his ship with “presents.”

“Well it’s about time,” said Monique.

“So everyone, where’s Bruce?” Captain Tide asked.

“How the hell should I know? If he’s gone, he’s gone,” Zack replied.

Just then, Bruce jumped in front of Monique, almost scaring her. “Aha! I knew you were with Cam this morning!” Bruce said.

“What’s your problem, I had a decent nature walk,” said Monique.

“So Sal, tell me about the abyss you don’t want to deal with,” said Strezz.

“Okay, I’ll tell you. Long ago, in the great abyss holds the lair of the Eternal Key, which disable any flaw of Z-Storm or any great warriors known to man, the abyss is rumored to be a dangerous place and the other side of the abyss is safe and not trap filled. That’s where Professor Algae is.” Sal explained.

“And how come you’re persuading us not to dive into the abyss?” Bruce asked.

“There are many chances where you can’t get though, many may not return, and that’s the abyss’ great history. The key is protected by the five fountains of destiny,” Sal was interrupted again.

”Why are they called the fountains of destiny?” Strezz questioned.

“As I was saying the five fountains are contained with natural capacity, they must not be disturbed,” Sal was interrupted by Monique.

”Disturbed, they’re just the great fountains of destiny,” Monique said.

”Do you kids ever let me finish?” Sal asked.

”I’m a responsible adult, and you’re just 14, go figure. Carry on please,” Monique replied.

”This is what each of the five fountains hold, the first one holds wills and no coordination, it can be dangerous, the second one is the fountain of youth, you all heard of that one, the third fountain is the fountain of disaster, highly unstable, the fourth one, a single tap from it can exchange your mind, and lastly, the fifth one makes anything into anything,” Sal finished.

”Well, I’m bored, what are the gifts Captain Tide?” Bruce said.

“I found these on the ship, which I think should be very helpful,” Captain Tide then passed the castaways each a disc.

“Finally a man who cares about us,” said Zowe referring to Cam, Marina, Zack, and herself.

”But what the heck is this s***?” Zack said appalled. “These look like CDs I steal from someone’s house.”

“Silly me, only Professor Algae can identify them,” said Captain Tide.

“So you mean that guy and our friend Sal are related, or what?” Monique was still confused.

“They formed a company called Zech Tech, Z-Storm technology and other miscellaneous utilities,” he replied.

“Whatever I’m doing, I’m going into the abyss no matter what, wish us luck Sal,” Strezz and co. then left to the shores.

”Wait, since it’s an abyss, I’m giving you guys these,” Sal handed out some goggles.

”Give me another explanation, Sal,” Bruce said referring to the goggles.

“They’re air goggles, so all of you wouldn’t drown to death,” Sal explained.

“We would be drowning to death if there wasn’t any water underwater and we were human,” Monique said sarcastically. “You four stay here,” Monique referred to Zowe, Cam, Marina, and Zack. Strezz and the others went underwater to find the abyss.

“They’re not going to make it….” Sal finished and left the beach.

“Again, if there’s an adventure, I want an adventure to happen!” Zowe once again kicks the sand.

”Well, I’m going back to the forest to do some harvesting as usual,” Cam left the beach and went into the jungle. Cam was ambushed when Seymour, Hector, and another nemesis appeared.

“Surprise Cameron,” the shady henchman said.

“Seymour, what is it now? Looks like you finally made my insolent brother show up,” said Cam.

“Me, Hector, and of course, your brother are here to re-arrange your mind,” Seymour replied. “But first, tell me where Strezz is.”

“Your precious Z-Storm is in the abyss, I doubt you clowns would find him there,” Cam answered.

“Hector, go find and round up those savages, Matthew, reset Cam’s find: the way we want it,” Seymour ordered. Hector went underwater, while Matt, Cam’s brother, was ready for Cam to engage a brain drain.

*Video Journal*

Bruce: So this is what Cam’s talk about on suspicious enemies. Well, he had it coming, and as usual, there’s no way he can dig Moe.

*End*

The scene switches to the abyss. It was deeper than Goo Lagoon and any other lake. There was a submarine inside the abyss that looked abandoned. Priorilly, Strezz is Z-Storm, while Bruce, Monique, and Shazza have their goggles.

“So this is the abyss, I sense no danger,” said Monique.

”I don’t think so mate, this place is booby trapped,” said Shazza. Strezz and co. were a few feet near a spiral saw, avalanching rocks, and spinning axes which leads to the submarine.

“Hmm, predictable, hopefully, all we have to do is avoid everything and we’ll find that Algae person in no time,” Bruce said. A crimson blast is seen/heard towards Bruce.

“Maybe we’ll start with that guy,” Strezz said referring to Hector/Crimson Kill. Strezz was ready for action, and used his trusty laser blade. Hector then used his trusty laser beams. Strezz went above and electrocuted Hector with his lightning power. Strezz flew as fast as could and went under when Hector fired a crimson missile. Strezz uses the plasma cannon to hit the missile that was about to hit him. Strezz aimed at Hector and hit him with a laser blade again. Then came a blood fist from Hector which hits Strezz. Strezz uses his electric power again, while Hector fires another missile. Hector was near the ship, but his armor got damaged from the traps, and was finished off with a plasma cannon attack.

“I see you always win, but that’s just the beginning,” Hector left and a bomb was launched underwater, the bomb exploded in a contagious crimson mist, luckily, Strezz was fine. The scene is back to where more action comes by.

“I’m going to be so glad when Strezz comes back and identifies these discs,” Zowe said. Cam showed up in front of her, Marina, and Zack.

“Cam, you’re back,” said Marina.

“Silence naives, I know you guys are companions of Z-Storm, and I’ll take offense if you try to escape from me,” Cam said. His good mind was erased.

”Crazy speech mister! I know the real Cam, and you’re not it,” Zowe replied.

”I don’t like your tone, miss! One special place for saps like you is in Seymour’s headquarters,” Cam then dragged the three.

“To rain on your parade, something tells me that Seymour erased your good side, and you admit that it was Seymour,” Zack then broke free from Cam’s hands. “Good thing I learned a special criminal technique before this happened.”

Matt, Seymour’s second henchman, appeared from above and fired missiles at Zack, but it missed because Zack was on a palm tree.

“You did something to Cam, I know so!” Zack then grabbed on Matt and threw him off his hover boat.

Marina and Zowe were close to Seymour’s headquarters, along with Cam. Zack used a magnet, luckily Zowe and Marina had watches so now they are in Matt’s hover boat.

”Zack, you saved us from certain doom?” Marina wondered.

“I did that because Cameron is annoying and Matt sucks, like they are related,” Zack answered. “Try and get us now, secret agent!” Zack taunted at Cam.

Zack was gullible enough to realize Cam had a jet pack filled with stuff that’s metal, which was also the fact that Cam was underneath the hover boat.

”What did you say you outlandish hooligan?” Cam said as he got up. Zowe and Marina screamed.

”Let’s see what else this sexy thing can do,” Zack set the boat’s speed to hyper. Cam fell of the hover boat when the speed was tampered by Zack.

”Yeah, there’s no way you can get us now!” Zowe taunted. Just then, Matt appeared on a jet pack.

”Give the hell up already!” Zack said frustrated.

”You didn’t think this would be easy, wouldn’t you?” Matt said. He then pointed to a thundercloud above, ready to strike.

”Please hurry up Strezz!” Marina said. The scene was back to Strezz, Bruce, Monique, and Shazza.

“Let’s not go under there again,” said Bruce.

”I sorry to say this, but for something dangerous, he’s right,” said Shazza.

“Well I’m not giving up for the Eternal Key,” Strezz vowed.

”And oh yes, why is the shore being sucked up like a vacuum?” Bruce wondered.

Strezz and co. noticed and screamed when the minor whirlpool captured them, and the entrance was revealed to be the “abandoned” submarine, as they are unaware that they are being captured by the man inside the vehicle.

5.Professor Algae

Strezz and co. were now inside a submarine. Monique then banged on the wall.

"You think this is funny? You may be the pilot of this vessel, but I still play no games," Monique exclaimed.

"Silly me, I should've declassified myself," someone said off-screen.

"Nay voices from above?" Bruce questioned.

"No, I'm from the intercom next to you," he said, as there was the exact device next to a tightly shut door.

"Okay then, what do you want?" Bruce asked.

"Are you friends with whom people are calling...Strezz?" The voice questioned.

"This is totally awkward, he knows us," said Strezz.

Monique thought about it and spoke, "More or less."

"Since you guys are called for as Strezz's companions, come in," he said from the intercom. The door was now opened up and revealed a person. "I've been looking for all of you," it was Professor Algae.

”It’s a pleasure mate, you must be Professor Algae,” Shazza greeted.

“Since you don’t know me, like everyone does, I’m Monique, and that guy in the background is Bruce,” she greeted.

“It’s a pleasure to see guys like you, but where’s the one, 1 foot tall, square, sensitive type – where is he?” Prof. Algae asked.

“Oh yes, our buddy Strezz Stormond is Z-Storm, I was hoping you’d quickly figure that out,” Monique answered. The rain stopped, the Z-Storm utility was back in the jacket.

“As for sure, it stopped raining, what do you need, “Algster?” Strezz asked.

To tell the truth, you ran into the wrong ship. Originally, the place for all your dreams, which is Seymour’s intangible temple, is well…invisible,” Prof. Algae explained.

“How did you know we were looking for the Eternal Key, are you some kind of stalker?” Monique asked.

“I know everything about this island, which Sal and Nelson examined along with our CORE-al company,” Prof. Algae clarified once again.

“Well, we have no idea who Nelson is, and since someone said only you can examine how these discs work, I demand more elucidation!” Monique replied.

“What do you mean you guys don’t know Nelson? No wonder you don’t talk to him much. Apparently, he’s a captain. Let’s start with you Bruce. Your disc activates the storm spirits, but it won’t work until you believe more than ever,” Prof. Algae was explaining.

“Okay then. Carry on,” Bruce commented.

“Monique, this disc activates a force field,” said Prof. Algae.

“Good, so I can use my ignoring powers more often,” said Monique.

”For Shazza, the disc activates Z-Storm’s utilities without a jacket,” Prof. Algae continued.

”Wow, I feel like I’m not formally Z-Storm anymore,” said Shazza.

”Lastly, your buddy Strezz’s disc is a malevolent addition to Z-Storm, it’s only meaningful when it’s an emergency,” Prof. Algae finished.

“How cool actually? Still not getting Z-Storm very well, even though I won like 3 or 4 straight wins against Seymour and his goons,” Strezz replied.

“I can also examine Zowe, Cam, Marina, and Zack’s discs, but where the heck are they?” Prof. Algae asked.

“I don’t know, they’re in-charge of the island for right now actually,” said Bruce.

The current scene is back to Zowe, Marina, Zack, and a brainwashed Cam.

“This sucks,” Zowe deadpanned.

“Whatever, Cam’s brother may be annoying, but he still has some kick-ass stuff!” Zack replied and drove the boat away from Matt.

“There’s still a problem,” said Marina.

“Wrong naives, I always have an eye for danger, possibly why Zowe busted me out of jail,” Zack said. Cam and Matt then appeared in front of him.

”Let’s explain your worst nightmares that are still following us like some kind of stalker,” Zowe replied.

“What do you want from us you dorks?!” Zack was still frustrated.

“We want information on Z-Storm, and if you can’t tell us, we’ll just have to do it by force. Hector!” Cam called out. Hector blasts the three out of the hover boat, gets on it, and we see Zowe, Marina, and Zack in the water.

“That does it, this adventure is too dangerous for me, and I’m also totally through with everything already!” Zowe exclaimed.

”Come on Zowe, show some love,” Zack responded, trying to calm her.

”And you! This is your fault!” Zowe retorted as she and Zack still continued arguing.

“It was my fault? I was entirely spot on with the situation, and I had nothing to do with Cam’s mind control, yet he’s a moron anyways!”

“It was fine until his little army men ambushed us! I rather see you get mauled!”

”I’d rather see you killed in your sleep!”

”You know what? You’re one of the biggest jerks I’ve met!”

“Weren’t you lucky you made me escape from that hell hole prison cell, asshole?!”

“SHUT UP, both of you! Your violent ranting is just senseless, dreadful, and is tearing us all into pieces, if this can go on for days, then SHOVE IT!” Marina uttered. Zowe and Zack gave a moment of silence.

“Golly Marina, I never thought you would have some nerve in you,” Zack commented.

“She’s officially growing up, that’s what I think,” Zowe compliments.

“Now let’s get back on the sand, and stop Seymour, whether we like it or not.” said Zack.

”There’s still a problem,” said Marina.

“So what? Those suckers won’t be able to strike and electrocute us. Plus, I just got a crazy idea on how to stop Cam,” Zack responded.

“What’s worse is that he’s almost there!” Zowe reminded as Cam was running and ready to fire his missiles at the three castaways.

Zack was spot on Cam this time. He lunged on Cam and threw him into the water.

“You two need to work out more,” Zack tormented.

“Will he be okay though?” Marina thought.

”He’s okay. He’s gotten up,” Zack replied as Cam emerged from the water.

Now the scene is back to Strezz and co. with Prof. Algae.

“So mister, do you know anything about the Eternal Key?” Bruce asked.

“Hmph, there’s a lot of explaining for the Eternal Key, I will take it from the top,” said Prof. Algae, and the tale began. “Long before we ever existed, the same organization wanted to guard the Eternal Key from the first Z-Storm, after they found it on a shipwreck that contained the five fountains. The key was stolen and never seen again. Many years later, the fifth Z-Storm found it washed up on shore, and hid it in the jungle to find it meaningless, and unfortunately, the key was stolen back from the opposing force. Many years later, after being displayed in their headquarters, Seymour at young age wants to prove potential that the key should always remain hidden from any person chosen as Z-Storm. He thought about that when his parents died. Seymour’s team never thought how righteous and valiant he was to keep the key a secret, the shipwreck is now invisible or a mirage, and locked with the five fountains and other passages his organization can only get through. Because of that, it wasn’t seen ever again.”

“Tragic,” Strezz thought. “But he deserves something since he can’t stop getting obsessive with me or Z-Storm.”

“That’s the spirit,” said Shazza.

”And besides, about the whole stalking situation Moe was talking about, why is your room filled with yours truly?” Strezz asked when he sees a room with talons of Strezz/Z-Storm licensed collectables.

“Okay, maybe I’m obsessed too, but if you want to go to that mirage temple, I reckon bringing your other friends there too, plus, the only way through is to keep dreaming,” Prof. Algae replied.

“Got it from the internet?” Strezz wondered.

”Eh, let’s go with that. I’ll teleport you guys back to Shellside Shores,” Prof. Algae then shows them a transporter. With a snap, Strezz and co. were back in their beachside.

Strezz and co. see Hector on the hover boat, Matt in the air, and Cam soaked up, while they also see Zowe, Marina, and Zack running.

“This is just great, we’ve been gone for three hours, and you guys already messed up!” Monique exclaimed.

“We didnt do anything. Cam’s insolent brother ambushed us!” Zack replied. “It looks like he’s getting up.” Cam was now on land and looked at Monique.

“Cam,” Monique said dreamily, as Cam came closer to her, but only for him to slump.

“What do you know? You three fixed Cam, considering that he wasn’t behaving properly,” Monique said sarcastically.

“We’re too late, we’re going to be electrocuted like smoked salmon any minute!” said Zowe.

After many minutes of being cloudy, the sky rains down and Z-Storm was immediately utilized. Strezz tried his plasma cannon, but it missed when Hector activated a shield for his hover car.

”Damn it, Cam’s brother makes his gadgets look indestructible!” said Bruce.

“The best part is that it’s still too easy to fry some fish,” Matt appears with a device with a joy pad. He pressed a random button and created a virtual hurricane. Shazza and Bruce disappeared from it.

“Change Cam back now, can you do that?” Monique said to Zowe. “His memory sure isn’t looking bright!”

“Me? All I know is that he got hit in the head by that sturdy sand when Zack threw him into the water,” she replied.

“I suggest that…do you think you can stall Cam for me?” Monique replied back. Zowe did so as Monique ran to Zack. Matt then pressed another button that activates plasmatic energy that made Monique stick to a tree. Zack dodged when he was on a tree again.

”Have any bright ideas?” Marina asked.

”All I know is that he can’t stay levitated forever,” Strezz mused, which gave Zack the same idea. Matt’s virtual hurricane then made Monique and Marina disappear.

Strezz then tried some advantages to break Hector’s barrier, when none of his attacks worked. Hector’s boat then fire some missiles at Strezz. Strezz then tries another strike with his plasma cannon, and then Hector fires a beam from the hover boat.

“So, have you been here often, whoever you are?” Cam asked Zowe.

“I wish I wasn’t, but yes. Now stop asking,” Zowe answered.

 

Matt tries another hurricane to hit Zowe, Zack quickly lunged on Zowe and threw her out of the way while Zack jumped back to the same tree, instead, the hurricane made Cam disappear.

”Hmph, he’s no help,” Matt said referring to Cam. “You’re no Z-Storm either, you’re just one menacing teen who screwed up with his utility, you prove me nothing from the heroic justice you reveal,” he continued. Zack then lunged on Matt and wrecked his jetpack. “You may have shown me Z-Storm, but this is too far for me now,” Matt then reveals a revolver from his bag.

“Crap, he has a gun!” Zowe said sounding a bit panicked.

 

Matt was about to aim fire until Zack sneaked and grabbed his remote and sent Shazza, Monique, Bruce, Marina, and Cam back in. Five of them landed on Matt himself.

“I hate to admit Cam, but your brother is hotter than you,” said Monique.

“Lies, he can’t be on fire if we’re all underwater, miss what’s-your-face,” Cam replied.

”For the love, we need the old him now!” Bruce said. Zack then threw Cam into the water again, and then he immediately bagged Matt.

“Matt still has it covered everyone, check this out,” Hector said and then used a beam to create a barrier in front of Strezz and co. in which they can’t escape out of now.

Matt got out of Cam’s bag, obviously. His heavy metal utility is revealed now. Matt used a Giga-sphere in the barrier, making Strezz and co. faint except Matt. The barrier breaks, and Matt escapes.

“Surprise, surprise everyone, if you want to deal with me, deal with me later,” Matt then flies off with his eventually fixed jetpack.

“For a bad guy, he has really cool stuff. Now I’m jealous!” Zack said.

“For once, I have really good assistance. So long suckers,” Hector did the same with his hover boat. The scene goes to Strezz and co. back at Sal’s hut.

“Who the hell was the guy that was chasing us?” Zowe asked Cam, whose mind was now normal again.

”That’s my brother Matt in case you didn’t know. He was still being negative in his life since he joined Seymour’s administration to Turbulent Metal Dragons association,” Cam answered.

“Turbulent Metal Dragons, you say?” Zowe thought, “Don’t get it, but you might as well do.” Zowe then saw a throne made by Marina, walking over to the object. “Hmm, I’ve seen something like this months ago, I wonder why Marina can’t let see this.” She then opens Marina’s throne. It was filled with pictures of Strezz and licensed Strezz merchandise. Marina closed the door.

“It was for a friend, you just do whatever it is you like to do,” Marina fibbed nervously. Zowe then left the scene.

“Pack your bags everyone, because it seems that we’re going to find Seymour’s mirage temple tomorrow,” said Strezz.

”What do you mean everyone? I had too much excitement for just one day!” Zowe replied.

“Professor Algae said he’d recommend all of us to find the Eternal Key. Too bad for you,” said Bruce.

”As long as it’s not boring, fine! You guys better not bother me, I’m still clearing my mind on that Matt person,” she replied. Everyone was asleep and it ends.

Strezz and co. were now inside a submarine. Monique then banged on a wall.

"You think this is funny? You may be the pilot of this vessel, but I still play no games," Monique exclaimed.

"Silly me, I should've declassified myself," someone said off-screen.

"Nay voices from above?" Bruce thought.

"No, I'm from the intern next to you," he said, there was an intern next to a closed door.

"Okay then, what do you want?" Bruce asked.

"Are you friends with whom people call...Strezz?" He questioned.

"This is totally awkward, he knows us," said Strezz.

Monique thought about it and said, "More or less."

“Whatever, Cam’s brother may be annoying, but he still has some kick-ass stuff,” Zack replied and drove the boat away from Matt.

“There’s still a problem,” said Marina.

“Wrong naives, I always have an eye for danger, possibly why Zowe busted me out of jail,” Zack said. Cam and Matt then appeared in front of him.

“That does it, this adventure is too dangerous for me, and I’m also totally through with everything already!” Zowe exclaimed.

”Come on Zowe, show some love,” Zack replied.

”And you! This is all your fault!” Zowe and Zack still continued arguing.

“My fault? I was entirely spot on the situation, and I had nothing to do with Cam’s mind control, and he’s a moron anyways. At least I wasn’t also shipped to Pisces Moon!”

“It was fine until his little buddies ambushed us! I rather see you kill yourself!”

”I’d rather see you killed in your sleep!”

”You know what? Your one of the biggest jerks I’ve met!”

“Weren’t you lucky you made me escape from that hell hole prison cell, asshole?!”

“SHUT UP, both of you! Your senseless, dreadful, and violent ranting is tearing us all into pieces, if this can go on for days, then SHOVE IT!” Marina uttered. Zowe and Zack paused for a moment.

“Wow Marina, I never thought you would have some nerve in you,” Zack commented.

“She’s officially growing up, that’s what I think,” Zowe replied.

“Now let’s get back on the sand, and stop Seymour,” said Zack.

”There’s still a problem,” Marina replied.

“So what? Those suckers won’t be able to strike and electrocute us, and I just got a crazy idea on how to stop Cam,” Zack explained.

“What’s worse is that he’s almost there!” Zowe reminded as Cam was running and ready to fire his missiles at the three.

Zack was spot on Cam this time. He lunged on Cam and threw him into the water.

“You two need to work out more,” said Zack.

“Will he be okay though?” Marina thought.

”He’s okay, he got up,” Zack replied as Cam emerged from the water.

Now it’s back to Strezz and co. with Prof. Algae.

“So mister, do you know anything about the Eternal Key?” Bruce asked.

“Hmph, there’s a lot of explaining for the Eternal Key, I will take it from the top,” said Prof. Algae, and the tale began. “Long before we ever existed, the same organization wanted to guard the Eternal Key from the first Z-Storm, after they found it on a shipwreck that contained the five fountains. The key was stolen and never seen again. Many years later, the fifth Z-Storm found it washed up on shore, and hid it in the jungle to find it meaningless, and unfortunately, the key was stolen back from the opposing force. Many years later, after being displayed in their headquarters, Seymour at young age wants to prove potential that the key should always remain hidden from any person chosen as Z-Storm. He thought about that when his parents died. Seymour’s team never thought how righteous and valiant he was to keep the key a secret, the shipwreck is now invisible or a mirage, and locked with the five fountains and other passages his organization can only get through. By that meaning, it wasn’t seen ever again.”

“Tragic,” Strezz thought. “But he deserves something since he can’t stop getting obsessive with me or Z-Storm.”

“That’s the spirit,” said Shazza.

”And besides, about the whole stalking situation Moe was talking about, why is your room filled with yours truly?” Strezz asked when he sees a room with talons of Strezz/Z-Storm licensed collectables.

“Okay, maybe I’m obsessed too, but if you want to go to that mirage temple, I reckon bringing your other friends there too, plus, the only way through is to keep dreaming,” Prof. Algae replied.

“Got it from the internet?” Strezz wondered.

”Let’s go with that, I’ll teleport you guys back to Shellside Shores,” Prof. Algae then shows them a transporter. With a snap, Strezz and co. were back in their beachside.

*Video Journal*

Strezz: A big fan, mirage locations, and a secret organization formed by an unexpected enemy, still not surprised.

*End*

Strezz and co. see Hector on the hover boat, Matt in the air, and Cam soaked up, while they also see Zowe, Marina, and Zack running.

“This is just great, we’ve been gone for three hours, and you guys already messed up!” Monique exclaimed.

“We didn’t do anything, Cam’s insolent brother ambushed us,” Zack replied. “Looks like he’s getting up,” Cam was now on land and looked at Monique.

“Cam,” Monique said dreamily, but it was an illusion after Cam tackle hugged Monique.

“What do you know, you three fixed Cam,” said Monique.

*Video Journal*

Bruce: Still highly predictable, but I can get used to this.

*End*

“We’re too late, were going to be electrocuted like smoked salmon any minute,” said Zowe.

After many minutes of being cloudy, it rained and Z-Storm was immediately utilized. Strezz tried his plasma cannon, but it missed when Hector activated a shield for his hover car.

”Damn it, Cam’s brother makes his gadgets look indestructible,” said Bruce.

“The best part is that it’s still too easy to fry some fish,” Matt appears with a device with a joy pad. He pressed a random button and created a virtual hurricane. Shazza and Bruce disappeared from it.

“Change Cam back, now,” Monique said to Zowe.

“Me? All I know is that he got hit in the head by that sturdy sand when Zack threw him into the water,” she replied.

“I suggest that, you think you can stall Cam for me?” Monique replied back. Zowe did so as Monique ran to Zack. Matt then pressed another button that activates plasmic energy that made Monique stick to a tree. Zack dodged when he was on a tree again.

”Have any bright ideas?” Marina said.

”All I know is that he can’t stay levitated forever,” Strezz thought, which gave Zack the same idea. Matt’s virtual hurricane then made Monique and Marina disappear.

Strezz then tried some advantages to break Hector’s barrier, when none of his attacks worked. Hector’s boat then fire some missiles at Strezz. Strezz then tries another strike with his plasma cannon, and then Hector fires a beam from the hover boat.

“So, has Monique been here often?” Cam asked Zowe.

“I wish she was, but I wish I wasn’t,” Zowe replied. Matt tries another hurricane to hit Zowe, Zack quickly lunged on Zowe and threw her out of the way while Zack jumped back to the same tree, instead, the hurricane made Cam disappear.

”Hmph, he’s no help,” Matt said referring to Cam. “You’re no Z-Storm either, you’re just one menacing teen who screwed up with his utility, you prove me nothing from the heroic justice you reveal,” he continued. Zack then lunged on Matt and wrecked his jetpack. “You may have shown me Z-Storm, but this is too far for me now,” Matt then reveals a revolver from his bag.

“Crap, he has a gun,” Zowe said. Matt was about to aim fire until Zack sneaked and grabbed his remote and sent Shazza, Monique, Bruce, Marina, and Cam back in. Five of them landed on Matt.

“I hate to admit Cam, your brother is hotter than you,” said Monique.

“Lies, you are spicy,” Cam replied.

”For the love, we need the old him now!” Bruce said. Zack then threw Cam into the water again, and then he immediately bagged Matt.

“Matt still has it covered everyone, check this out,” Hector said and then used a beam to create a barrier in front of Strezz and co. in which they can’t escape out of.

*Video Journal*

Cam: Suspicious enemies, the outcome of my insolent brother, personalized life inside a footage, and anything else predictable is making my life a lot worse now.

*End*

Matt got out of Cam’s bag, obviously. His heavy metal utility is revealed now. Matt used a Giga-sphere in the barrier, making Strezz and co. faint except Matt. The barrier breaks, and Matt escapes.

“Surprise, surprise everyone, if you want to deal with me, deal with me later,” Matt then flies off with his eventually fixed jetpack.

“For an antagonist, he has really cool stuff, I’m jealous,” said Zack.

“For once, I have really good assistance, so long suckers,” Hector did the same with his hover boat. The scene goes to Strezz and co. back at Sal’s hut.

“Who the hell was the guy that was chasing us?” Zowe asked Cam.

”My brother Matt, he was still being negative in his life since he joined Seymour’s administration to his League of Unreceptive Drake Knights,” Cam answered.

“L.O.U.D…K?” Zowe thought, “Don’t get it, but you might as well do.” Zowe then saw a throne made by Marina. “Hmm, I’ve seen something like this months ago, I wonder why Marina can’t let see this.” She then opens Marina’s throne. It was filled with pictures of Strezz and licensed Strezz merchandise. Marina closed the door.

“It was for a friend, you just do whatever it is you like to do,” Marina was lying. Zowe then left the scene.

“Pack your bags everyone, because we’re going to find Seymour’s mirage temple tomorrow,” said Strezz.

”What do you mean everyone? I had too much excitement for just one day,” Zowe replied.

“Professor Algae said he’d recommend all of us to find the Eternal Key, too bad,” said Bruce.

”As long as it’s not boring, fine! You guys better not bother me, I’m still clearing my mind on Matt,” she replied. Everyone was asleep and it ends.

[Steel Sponge]

6. Eternal Key (Part 1 of 3)

Zowe appeared in front of Bruce and yells, “Hi Bruce, wake up! It’s 10:00 in the morning, and we don’t want to be late!” Zowe exclaimed after showing Bruce the alarm clock that said 10:00 AM. Bruce got out of his covers and spruced himself up like crazy. He got outside of the hut with his clothes on, Strezz and Cam woke up.

“What are you doing up in the middle of the night?” Cam asked.

“You’re all awake? Good, because….what you do mean the middle of the night!?” Bruce looked at the sky, and noticed that is was only dusk out.

“What’s going on?” Strezz said.

”Zowe did this me. Sigh, I’m going back to bed.” Bruce said before going back to sleep.

Now it was nine in the morning. The whole crew woke up and appeared in the beachside.

“It’s almost ten. I don’t want to go so soon!” Zack complained.

 

Then, the same submarine as previously seen appears in which Professor Algae was operating inside it. The top opens up and he reveals himself.

”Who the hell is that guy?” Zowe asked.

“Professor Algae, we met him yesterday while the rest of you had your little fun,” Strezz replied.

“You guys better hop on, this thing will take us to the Eternal Key’s keep in no time!” Prof. Algae replied. “And I mean everyone!” He added.

“All of us? Including Sal, mate? I know that he knows he’s not an outside person, he thinks it’s too dangerous,” said Shazza.

“He will be fine. When was the time I was never fine?” Prof. Algae said.

“I don’t know, never?” Shazza thought. “You’re still a bit of a stranger to me.” Eventually, Captain Tide and Sal hopped on the submarine.

”Wait, someone’s missing!” Prof. Algae halted.

“Marina!” Zowe said. “She will be fine, let’s move out before I lose my patience!” She continued.

Prof. Algae then went underwater and they were close to the mirage temple. Prof. Algae then activated a device to make the location visible.

”Even that guy gets cool stuff,” said Zack.

The voyage went fine until the submarine hit one of the edges of the temple, making the shield break by a margin. Prof. Algae and the rest evacuated with their air goggles. Strezz went under, almost suffocating.

“Professor Algae, we have a problem!” Sal said.

“I know that, but sadly I don’t know how to stop Strezz from oxygen loss,” Prof. Algae.

“We better get Strezz inside, quick!” Bruce exclaimed.

Then the rest of the gang realized Strezz was missing from the water. He was now at the surface. “Well, I can always pull back,” said Strezz.

”Well, the temple is going to be invisible when the water reaches the controls, get in quick before you suffocate – or worse,” Prof. Algae reminded.

Strezz then swam under quickly before the temple’s appearance vanished in thin air. They were now all inside.

”That was a close one,” said Captain Tide.

”We’ve almost gotten ourselves killed, I hope Marina didn’t end up like that,” said Zowe.

“Me too, let’s forge on,” Cam declared. They all now appeared in a corridor, and they were shocked and surprised at the same time when they found Marina.

”Hey guys!” Marina said as she approached.

”Marina, how did you even end up getting in here?” Cam said surprised.

”I snuck inside Seymour’s headquarters and got inside a teleporter! I also found this thing,” Marina then showed a ferret-like albino eel.

“What is that?” Bruce asked.

“I don’t know, but I’m pretty sure it got abandoned,” Marina replied.

”It’s not abandoned, that thing’s collar specifically has the word “Hector” written on it,” Strezz pointed out.
 

“Still, it feels bad when I saw it all alone like this,” Marina responded.

”Yeah, but that servant is such a push-over,” said Cam.

“I doubt that,” the albino eel said.

“Holy mackerel!” said a surprised Bruce.

”It can talk!” Zowe exclaimed.

“True that. We superior TMD agents are smarter, stronger, and more reliable than you guys are. You are provided no help, I only listen to Hector,” the eel continued.

“Okay then, let’s get it over with on finding the Eternal Key,” said Captain Tide. The crew is now walking in the corridor, Bruce and Monique stepped on a platform and they were somewhat teleported somewhere else.

“Bruce, Moe, where are you?” Strezz called out.

Cuts to Bruce and Monique in the other side of the temple, also where Seymour’s facility members are shown. “Your names please,” one of the agents said.

“Monique and Bruce thank you very much,” Monique replied.

“Affirmative, if you want to be proud member of our organization, sign these release forms,” he continued.

”I don’t know where this is going, but fine,” said Bruce carelessly.

A trapdoor made Bruce and Monique fall after they finished signing the forms. Now it cuts to the dead end of the first temple room.

“Hey, there’s a computer!” Zack said, as he saw Matt typing on the device.

“And its Matt,” said Cam. “Hmm…something tells me that this is the device that lets Seymour’s members inside the other rooms of the temple,” he continued. Then we see Matt getting downloaded into the program.

Strezz and co. looks at the computer screen which requires a password. Just then, Bruce and Monique dropped down.

“Did we miss anything?” Bruce asked.

”We found the main source into accessing the fountain rooms and Seymour’s lackeys are accessed through there,” Shazza replied.

“And it requires a password? This should be easy,” Zack thought. After several tries, he then exclaimed, “damn computer, how do we get in?!”

“Something tells me people associated with Seymour can only log-in the program,” said Cam.

”I also remember, even a HMD can access the program,” Shazza added.

“The initials aren’t getting into my head, Shazza,” says Strezz.

”Heroic And Turbulent Metal Dragons, and you’re one of them, but-“Shazza replied then got interrupted.

”This should work: Shazza Flores!” Monique said as she entered Shazza’s name, but the password still didn’t work. “Damn! What kind of lame science is this!?”

”The password can be read through Z-Storm’s ectoskeleton, and since I was Z-Storm formally, the password is changed,” Shazza explained.

”You’re still freaking us out; there’s no way any of us can read it!” Bruce said.

”Not quite,” said Cam. “Regularly, the password is analyzed through the name of the bearer of Z-Storm or anything. Declaring myself as a well-known investigator, I read Z-Storm’s skeleton, and is said that the password is the current owner himself: Strezz Stormond,” he continued, he then entered the password and it’s accepted.

”Before we get in, we must register all of us in here,” Prof. Algae thought.

“Okay then, when did you know much of how this device works?” Monique wondered.

”I’m great with computers, now if we enter…” Prof. Algae began typing. He entered Shazza Flores, Prof. Algae (already registered), Nelson Tide, Zowe Redpetals, Marina Villa, Zack Rebelondo, Cameron Lucier, Bruce Coleman, Monique Kourtkeeper (both already registered), and Sal Modo.

“And oh yeah, I think those guys gave Bruce and I these devices,” said Monique, holding up something that looked like a cellphone.

“I’ve seen one of those. Strezz, your Z-Storm utility may also have that,” said Prof. Algae. Strezz saw it in his jacket pocket. Just then, the other cellphones were printed and given to the rest of the team.

“Now all you guys have to do is feel some lust, press the red button, and we’re in the fountain routes,” Prof. Algae commanded. He did what he required them to do, and he was downloaded into the program.

The rest did the same, and now they were downloaded. They now appeared near a fountain. Strezz and co. also noticed a minor wardrobe alter.

“Hmm, new clothes,” Monique thought. Sal then spotted the fountain.

“It’s the first fountain, the Fountain of Incoordination!” Sal exclaimed.

“Now wait a second!” A mysterious person called. “You guys are here to save me? Good, because I’ve been stuck here for years. Seymour imprisoned me here,” he continued.

”And who are you supposed to be?” Monique asked.

 

“Great, more people to add to our party,” Zack deadpanned.

”The name’s Dallas, and it will be a pleasure to assist you guys, but you all must watch out, because-“Dallas was then interrupted.

”Not so fast!” A member of Seymour’s group said as he appeared.

”And speaking of more speaking, who the hell are you? We’re in the middle of something,” Zowe asked.

“It is I, Warden of the TMD. Seymour ordered me to kill the one with the jacket…or perhaps all of you,” he announced.

Not a chance, the first gem to the Eternal Key is ours!” Prof. Algae replied. Warden then revealed his knight form. He was a plasmatic purple and known as Killer Kinesis.

“You’ll all be surprised about how good I am,” Warden said. Then he threw a mace at Zowe. Warden then used telekinesis to make Zowe plunge into the fountain water.

”Where am I? This place is so bizarre,” Zowe said from the effect.

“This must be the effect of the fountain water,” Cam said curiously. “What happened to you, Zowe?”

“I don’t know; just get that scary thing away from me!” Zowe exclaimed, referring to Warden.

“So this must be the effect from the Incoordination fountain; Zowe grew weak and fearful, but anyways, WATCH OUT!” Sal explained and threw Cam out of the way from Warden’s mace.

“Only if it rained, Z-Storm would work,” Strezz thought. Warden then threw his mace at Strezz and used the same of what he did to Zowe.

“Oh no, he got Strezz!” Bruce exclaimed.

Strezz then looked at Warden, and then exclaimed, “Monster! Get him away from me!”

”Then fight back, you know, give him some fast punches! Monique suggested. Strezz cowered a bit, and then threw a punch, which didn’t hurt Warden at all.

Monique then dodged Warden’s muskets, jumped on the wall, gave a sneak attack, and used her power glove to hit Warden. Bruce then used his device to electrocute the same enemy. Strezz and Zowe are still cowered with fear. Just then, a multi-mace attack was attempted and only hit Shazza. Shazza quickly pull it out of her leg and gave out a lunge attack on Warden. Cam then noticed a button and reminded Bruce, Monique, and Shazza to press it. Warden used telekinesis and this time, used it to drop an anchor on Bruce to temporarily jam his conductor. Cam gave a sneak attack and found a bamboo stick and whacked Warden with it. Warden now uses his muskets off-course, hitting Captain Tide. Monique then grabbed Captain Tide out of Warden’s trap. With telekinesis again, Warden activated the rotating axes, almost hitting the two. Bruce then lunged on Warden, while Shazza was near the button, until an unexpected flying metal strap trapped Shazza, with Warden’s telekinesis. Cam, unnoticed, pressed the button and the fountain’s water temporarily turned off and revealed a gem.

“Let’s grab the gem and go!” Cam ordered. Zack, Marina, Prof. Algae, Sal, and Hector’s pet did the same, while Dallas tugged Strezz and Zowe near the fountain. Strezz and co. fell while Cam grabbed the first gem. After that, Warden escaped and dropped something that looked like a totem pole piece, and Strezz and Zowe’s conditions wore off.

We got the first gem!” Sal cheered.

“Thank goodness I’m not the cowardly guy I was in that battle,” said Strezz. “Was I?”

“You should’ve seen the look on your face,” Zowe commented.

“Warden dropped something!” Marina said. Just then, Marina’s disc had a magnetic pull on the totem piece; it was absorbed into the disc.

“Marina, you got half of Warden’s abilities!” Prof. Algae said. “That’s what your disc does,” he continued. “Sal, give me the gem, I’ll protect it for you.”

“Whoa, are you sure?” Sal asked.

”Of course, I set a watch for you and Strezz, and put in the gems you and your friends find in the watch and it will be teleported to me, I’ll keep it safe,” Prof. Algae replied. He then used his watch to teleport somewhere.

”What a cool guy, and look: now there’s the Fountain of Youth!” Strezz said as he found the second fountain. He and co. found another prisoner of Seymour.
 

“He’s got another captive? Who’s this lady?” Cam questioned.

“Dallas, you’re here too?” She asked.

”I’m right here, along with my new friends who were there to escort me here,” Dallas replied. “Who are all of you guys, by the way?” He then asked.

“Strezz Stormond, A.K.A Z-Storm,” Strezz introduced.

“Monique, Bruce,” said Monique, pointing to Bruce and her.

”I’m Shazza,” she introduced.

“Zowe, Zack, Cam, and Marina,” Zowe said pointed to herself and her friends.

“Captain Tide at your service,” he said.

“And I’m Sal,” he introduced.

”Don’t forget Hector’s best, Burden,” the albino eel said carelessly.

”I’m Marissa,” the new person introduced.

“Let’s get the next gem! We don’t have time to talk more about ourselves!” Bruce said with enthusiasm.

”You all think it’s that easy?” Another TMD member said as she approaches. “I’m Adriana, and I’m going to stop you all!”

“Show us your skills, we’re ready for anything,” Zack replied. “Just to brag, we got past that Warden guy.”

Adriana then revealed her knight form, known as Cannon Cadet. She fired some missiles from her cannons and made Monique land into the water. From the effect, she became no older than 12.

“So, how do I look?” Monique asked and only looked slightly less the same.

“Well, let’s just say not a bit of you has changed,” Bruce replied.

“Hopefully I don’t get any younger at this rate,” Monique replied.

Adrianna then launched her next series of missiles, but Bruce dodged them. Adrianna then launched firecrackers, which made Zowe jump/fall into the fountain. She was now 11.

“You look like a very popular girl. Just seeing you as a little brat amuses me,” Adrianna said to Zowe.

“Oh, you’re going down!” Zowe said as she jumped out.

Zowe then lunged and kicked Adrianna. Now the cannons are off-course and it hit Captain Tide. Zowe was now near the button while Monique used her weapon to punch Adrianna. Adrianna then launched chunks of tin foil and paralyzed Tide. Adrianna then launched her missiles again and hit Strezz into the water.

“Not this again!” Strezz exclaimed before getting drenched in the fountain’s water.

Strezz then got out. Also, part of his clothes bagged; Strezz was now 10. “I’m young again, and I’m suddenly feeling very energetic! This is so exciting!”
 

“That fountain also apparently gave you a shift in personality,” Shazza added.

“Adrianna is going to make us into dead meat,” Monique replied. “Remember who we have to defeat!”

“There’s nothing to worry about. Now I can have some kid time,” Strezz replied back.

“Your kiddie fare will end once we defeat this bitch,” said Zowe. Adrianna then fired her beams and hit Marissa into the water. Now she appeared to be 9.

The next series of missiles were launched and this time, at Cam and threw him into the fountain. Now he’s 10.

“When will this thing work?” Strezz thought about the jacket. More missiles were aiming at Strezz, and he quickly dodged them.

Adrianna, still persistent, launched some firecrackers, and Dallas, plus Cam, once again, was in the fountain. Instead, they were infantilized.

“This is great, Dallas and Cam are now useless!” said Monique and carried them around their arms.

“Let’s see, multiply the eight, take away 1, cut it in half, it’s possible,” said Adrianna about the age effect.

“Curse you math!” Bruce said.

“Please turn on!” Strezz said about the jacket. Just then, Z-Storm was finally activated. Z-Storm then dodged Adrianna’s next attack, while Bruce and Zowe are standing near the switch, but were come to a standstill by Adrianna.

“You two seem to be a great pair,” Adrianna said to Bruce and Zowe jokingly.

“Maybe not, if I had my own maturity left,” Zowe replied.

“Whatever, it’s time to take her out,” said Bruce, the two went under and avoid Adrianna’s moves as they can, eventually, the switch turned on, and the fountain then revealed the second gem.

“Okay guys; let’s grab it before something bad happens!” Strezz said, the team, except for Cam, Dallas, and Sal jumped for the gem. Strezz grabbed it while Zack broke his leg and everyone was at their proper age except for Cam and Dallas.

“The damn freefall made me sprain my leg,” said Zack.

”Humph, I will be seeing all of you scamps later,” Adrianna then flew off and left with an idol-like piece. This time, it was downloaded into Zowe’s disc.

 

“Yeah, that was awesome!” Strezz exclaimed.

”I can feel those blood cells pumping now!” Zowe cried out.

”Professor Algae, we got the second gem,” Strezz communicated with his watch and placed the gem on the watch and it was sent to Prof. Algae with a snap. “And Sal, are you coming with us?” He asked.

”No, unfortunately I have to stay here until Cam and Dallas are at their own ages,” Sal replied, now carrying the two. “The effects should wear off any sooner.”

”Well, it looks like we lost about a third of our team,” said Monique.

”Aw man, I don’t think my leg is healing up, but I’m going to continue on. Where I’m from, delinquents don’t quit,” said Zack.

The scene switches to Prof. Algae, he was pacing around one of the fountain rooms. Just then, Hector appeared and planted a chip in his shirt pocket. Now it’s back to Strezz and co.

“Prof. Algae, what’s the next fountain?” Strezz asked through his watch.

”And it better be quick too, ‘cause I hate long expeditions,” Zack added.

“The third fountain of destiny ahead is the Fountain of Disaster. Be careful now,” Prof. Algae replied to Strezz.

“Okie dokie, buddy, leave it to us!” Strezz replied back. He and co. now arrived at the third fountain.

 

Along the way, Strezz’s clothes stretched out a bit, as his effect from the fountain wore off.

6. Eternal Key (Part 1 of 3)

 

Zowe then appears in front of Bruce and yells, “Hi Bruce, wake up! It’s 10:00 in the morning, and we don’t want to be late!” Zowe exclaimed after showing Bruce the alarm clock that said 10:00 AM. Bruce got out of his covers and spruced himself up like crazy. He got outside of the hut with his clothes on, Strezz and Cam woke up.

 

“What’s the fire, dude?” Cam asked.

 

“You’re all awake? Good, because it’s time to-“Bruce was now outside and looked at the sky. We also hear an owlyster hooting, it was ten IN THE EVENING.

 

“What’s going on?” Strezz said.

 

“But…Zowe…she said…forget it!” Bruce then went back inside.

 

*Video Journal*

 

Zowe: I know, it’s cruel, but it was fun to make that guy mess up again. He was sleeping like a baby anyways. Plus, it never stops getting funny.

 

*End*

 

It was now nine in the morning; the whole crew woke up and appeared in the beachside.

 

“It’s almost ten; I don’t want to go so soon!” Zack complained. Then, the same submarine from the last episode appears which Professor Algae in it. The window opens up and reveals him.

 

”Who the hell is that guy?” Zowe asked.

 

“Professor Algae, we met him yesterday while the rest of you had your little fun,” Strezz replied.

 

“You guys better hop on, this thing will take us to the Eternal Key’s hideout in no time!” Prof. Algae replied. “And I mean everyone!” He added.

 

“All of us? Including Sal, mate? I know that he knows he’s not an outside person, he thinks it’s too dangerous,” said Shazza.

 

“He will be fine. When was the time I was never fine?” Prof. Algae said.

 

“I don’t know, never?” Shazza thought. Eventually, Captain Tide and Sal were on the submarine.

 

”Wait, someone’s missing!” Prof. Algae halted.

 

“Marina!” Zowe said. “She will be fine, let’s move out before I lose my patience!” She continued.

 

Prof. Algae then went underwater and they were close to the mirage temple. Prof. Algae then activated a device to make the location visible.

 

”Even that guy gets cool stuff,” said Zack.

 

The voyage went fine until the submarine hit one of the edges of the temple, making the shield break by a margin. Prof. Algae and the rest evacuated with their air goggles. Strezz went under, almost suffocating.

 

“Mr. Algae, we have a problem!” Sal said.

 

“Why tell me? I don’t know how to stop Strezz from oxygen loss,” Prof. Algae.

 

“We better get Strezz inside, quick!” Bruce declared.

 

Then the rest of the gang realized Strezz was missing, from the water. He was now in the surface. “Well, I can always pull back,” said Strezz.

 

”Well, the temple is going to be invisible when the water reaches the controls, get in quick before you suffocate or anything,” Prof. Algae reminded.

 

Strezz then swam under quickly before the temple’s appearance vanished in thin air. They were now all inside the temple.

 

”That was a close one,” said Captain Tide.

 

”We’ve almost gotten ourselves killed, I hope Marina didn’t end up like that,” said Zowe.

 

“Me too, let’s forge on,” Cam declared. They all now appeared in a corridor, and they were shocked and surprised at the same time when they found Marina.

 

”Hey guys!” Marina said as she approached.

 

”Marina, how did you even end up getting in here?” Cam said surprised.

 

”I snuck inside Seymour’s headquarters and got inside a teleporter. I also found this thing,” Marina then showed a ferret like albino eel.

 

“What is that?” Bruce asked.

 

“I don’t know, but I’m pretty sure it got abandoned,” Marina replied.

 

”It’s not abandoned, that thing’s collar specifically has the word “Hector” written on it,” Strezz pointed out.

 

”Yeah, but that meddling servant is such a push-over,” said Cam.

 

“Perhaps not,” the albino eel said.

 

“Holy mackerel,” said Bruce with surprise.

 

”It can talk!” Zowe exclaimed.

 

“True that. We superior Loud K. agents are smarter, stronger, and more reliable than you guys are. You are provided no help, I only listen to Hector,” the eel continued.

 

“Okay then. Let’s get this show on the road,” said Captain Tide. The crew is now walking in the corridor, Bruce and Monique stepped on a platform and they were somewhat teleported somewhere else.

 

“Bruce, Moe, where are you?” Strezz called out.

 

Cuts to Bruce and Monique in the other side of the temple, also where Seymour’s facility members are shown. “Your names please,” one of the agents said.

 

“Monique and Bruce thank you very much,” Monique replied.

 

“Affirmative, if you want to be proud member of Loud K., sign these release forms,” he continued.

 

”I don’t know where this is going, but fine,” said Bruce carelessly.

 

”Be a jerk,” said Monique. A trapdoor made Bruce and Monique fall after they finished signing the forms. Now it cuts to the dead end of the first temple room.

 

“Hey, there’s a computer!” Zack said, as he saw Matt typing on the device.

 

“And its Matt,” said Cam. “Hmm…something tells me that this is the device that lets Seymour’s members inside the other rooms of the temple,” he continued. Then we see Matt getting downloaded into the program.

 

Strezz and co. looks at the computer screen which requires a password. Just then, Bruce and Monique dropped down.

 

“What did we miss?” Bruce asked.

 

”We found the main source into accessing the fountain areas, and Seymour’s servants are accessed,” Shazza replied.

 

“And it requires a password, this is easy,” Zack thought. After several tries, he then exclaimed, “damn computer, how do we get in?!”

 

“Something tells me only a Loud K., or Seymour’s members can only log-in the program,” said Cam.

 

”I also remember, even a Hand K. can access the program,” Shazza added.

 

“What does Hand K. stand for Shazza?” Strezz asked.

 

”Heroic And Natural Drake Knights, which is what you are, but-“Shazza replied then got interrupted.

 

”Easy! Shazza Flores,” Monique said as she entered Shazza’s name, but the password still didn’t work. “Damn it! This is rocket science!”

 

”The valid password can be read through Z-Storm’s ectoskeleton, and since I was Z-Storm formally, the password is changed,” Shazza explained.

 

”You’re still freaking us out; there’s no way any of us can read it!” Bruce exclaimed.

 

”Not quite,” said Cam. “Regularly, the password is analyzed through the name of the bearer of Z-Storm or anything. Declaring myself as a well-known investigator, I read Z-Storm’s skeleton, and is said that the password is the gifted bearer: Strezz Stormond,” he continued, he then entered the password and it’s accepted.

 

”Before we get in, we must register all of us,” Prof. Algae thought.

 

“Okay then, when did you know much of how this device works?” Monique wondered.

 

”Great with computers, now if we enter…” Prof. Algae began typing. He entered Shazza Flores, Prof. Algae(already registered), Nelson Tide, Zowe Redpetals, Marina Villa, Zack Rebelondo, Cameron Lieutendon, Bruce Coleman, Monique Kourtkeeper(both already registered), and Sal Motto.

 

“And oh yeah, I think those guys gave me and Bruce these devices,” said Monique, holding up something that looked like a cellphone.

 

“I’ve seen one of those. Strezz, your Z-Storm utility may also have that thing,” said Prof. Algae. Strezz saw it in his jacket pocket. Just then, the other cellphones were printed and given to the rest of the team.

 

“Now all you guys have to do is feel some lust, press the red button, and we’re in the fountain routes,” Prof. Algae commanded. He did what he required them to do, and he was downloaded into the program.

 

The rest did the same, and now they were downloaded. They now appeared near a fountain. Strezz and co. also noticed a minor wardrobe alter.

 

“Hmm, new clothes,” Monique thought. Sal then spotted the fountain.

 

“It’s the first fountain, the Fountain of Incoordination!” Sal exclaimed.

 

“Now wait a second!” A mysterious person called. “You guys are here to save me? Good, because I’ve been stuck here for years. Seymour imprisoned me here,” he continued.

 

”And who are you supposed to be?” Monique asked.

 

”The name’s Dallas, I will assist you guys, but you all better watch out, because-“Dallas was then interrupted.

 

”Not so fast!” A Loud K. member said as he approached.

 

”And who the hell are you, we’re in the middle of something,” Zowe asked.

 

“It is I, Warden of Loud K., as always, Seymour ordered me to kill you,” he announced.

 

Not a chance, the first gem to the Eternal Key is ours!” Prof. Algae replied. Warden then revealed his knight form. He was a plasmic purple and known as Killer Kinesis.

 

“You’ll all be surprised about how good I am,” Warden said. Then he threw shuriken at Zowe. Warden then used telekinesis to make Zowe plunged into the fountain water.

 

”Where am I? This place is so bizarre,” Zowe said from the effect.

 

Zowe, what’s wrong with you?” Cam said curiously.

 

“I don’t know; just get that scary thing away from me!” Zowe exclaimed, referring to Warden.

 

“Just as I thought, it’s the effect from the Incoordination fountain; Zowe grows weak, and speaking of which, WATCH OUT!” Sal explained and threw Cam out of the way from Warden’s shuriken.

 

“Only if it rained, Z-Storm would work,” Strezz thought. Warden then threw his shuriken at Strezz and used the same of what he did to Zowe.

 

“Oh no, he got Strezz!” Bruce exclaimed.

 

Strezz then looked at Warden, and then exclaimed, “Monster! Get him away from me!”

 

”Then fight back, you know, give him some fast punches!” Monique suggested. Strezz cowered a bit, and then threw a punch, which didn’t hurt Warden at all. 

 

Monique then dodged Warden’s shurikens, jumped on the wall, gave a sneak attack, and used her power glove to hit Warden. Bruce then used his device to electrocute the same enemy. Strezz and Zowe are still cowered with fear. Just then, a multi-shuriken attack was attempted and only hit Shazza. Shazza quickly pull it out of her leg and gave out a lunge attack on Warden. Cam then noticed a button and reminded Bruce, Monique, and Shazza to press it. Warden used telekinesis and this time, used it to drop an anchor on Bruce to temporarily jam his conductor. Cam gave a sneak attack and found a bamboo stick and whacked Warden with it. Warden now uses his shurikens off-course, hitting Captain Tide. Monique then grabbed Captain Tide out of Warden’s trap. With telekinesis again, Warden activated the rotating axes, almost hitting the two. Bruce then lunged on Warden, while Shazza was near the button, until an unexpected flying metal strap trapped Shazza, with Warden’s telekinesis. Cam, unnoticed, pressed the button and the fountain’s water temporarily turned off and revealed a gem.

 

“Tide, Shazza, Bruce, Monique, let’s grab the gem and go!” Cam ordered. Zack, Marina, Prof. Algae, Sal, and Hector’s pet did the same, while Dallas tugged Strezz and Zowe near the fountain. Strezz and co. fell while Cam grabbed the first gem. After that, Warden escaped and dropped something that looked like a totem pole piece, and Strezz and Zowe’s stats returned to normal.

 

We got the first gem!” Sal declared.

 

“Thank goodness I’m not the cowardly guy I was in that battle,” said Strezz.

 

“Warden dropped something!” Marina said. Just then, Marina’s disc had a magnetic pull on the totem piece; it was absorbed into the disc.

 

“Marina, you got half of Warden’s abilities!” Prof. Algae said. “I guess that’s what your disc does,” he continued. “Sal, give me the gem, I’ll protect it for you.”

 

“Wow, seriously?” Sal asked.

 

”Of course, I set a watch for you and Strezz, and put in the gems you and your friends find in the watch and it will be teleported to me, I’ll keep it safe,” Prof. Algae replied. He then used his watch to teleport somewhere.

 

”What a cool guy, and oh look, there’s the Fountain of Youth!” Strezz said as he found the second fountain. He and co. found another prisoner of Seymour.

 

“Dallas, you’re here too?” She asked.

 

”Right here, along with my new friends,” Dallas replied. “Who are all of you guys?” He then asked.

 

“Strezz Stormond, A.K.A Z-Storm,” Strezz introduced.

 

“Monique, Bruce,” said Monique, pointing to Bruce and her.

 

”I’m Shazza,” she introduced.

 

“Zowe, Zack, Cam, and Marina,” Zowe said pointed to herself and her friends.

 

“Captain Tide at your service,” he said.

 

“And I’m Sal,” he introduced.

 

”Don’t forget Hector’s best, Burden,” the albino eel said carelessly.

 

”I’m Marissa,” the new person introduced.

 

“Since we’re here, let’s get the next gem!” Bruce said with enthusiasm.

 

”You all think it’s that easy?” Another Loud K. member said as she approaches. “I’m Adriana, and I’m going to stop you all!”

 

“Show us your skills, we’re ready for anything,” Zack replied.

 

Adriana then revealed her knight form, known as Cannon Cadet. She fired some missiles from her cannons and made Monique land into the water. From the effect, she became 12.

 

“So, how do I look?” Monique asked she looked the same.

 

“Well, let’s just say not a bit of you has changed,” Bruce replied.

 

“Hmm, that’s probably why I use make-up ever since,” Monique replied. 

 

Adrianna then launched her next series of missiles, but Bruce dodged them. Adrianna then launched firecrackers, which made Zowe jump/fall into the fountain. She was now 11.

 

“Your talent and your popularity are now below mine,” Adrianna said to Zowe.

 

“Oh, you’re going down!” Zowe said as she jumped out.

 

*Video Journal*

 

Dallas: This thing on? Ok, so this is the most exciting experience I had in my life. New friends, even crazy ones, Marissa, there’s a shape of things to come.

 

*End*

 

Zowe then lunged and kick Adrianna. Now the cannons are off-course and it hit Captain Tide. Zowe was now near the button while Monique used her weapon to punch Adrianna. Adrianna then launched chunks of tin foil and paralyzed Tide. Adrianna then launched her missiles again and hit Strezz into the water.

 

“No, not again,” Bruce thought.

 

Strezz then got out. Also, part of his clothes bagged; Strezz was now 10. “I’m young again, this is amazing!”

 

“Are you dead serious, any minute, Adrianna is going to make us into dead meat,” Monique replied.

 

“Maybe you’re right, but there’s nothing to worry about. Now I can have some kid time,” Strezz replied back.

 

“Well, it will end once we defeat her,” said Zowe. Adrianna then fired her beams and hit Marissa into the water. Now she’s 9. “Oh yeah, now you see what I mean,” Zowe said to Marissa.

 

The next series of missiles were launched and this time, at Cam. Now he’s 10.

 

“When will this thing work?” Strezz thought about the jacket. More missiles were aiming at Strezz, and he quickly dodged them.

 

Adrianna, still persistent, launched some firecrackers, and Dallas, plus Cam, once again, was in the fountain. Instead, they were infantilized.

 

“This is just great, Dallas and Cam are now useless,” said Monique. “What gives?”

 

“Let’s see, multiply the eight, take away 1, cut it in half, it’s possible,” said Adrianna about the age effect.

 

“Curse you math!” Bruce said.

 

“Please turn on!” Strezz said about the jacket. Just then, Z-Storm was finally activated. Z-Storm then dodged Adrianna’s next attack, while Bruce and Zowe are standing near the switch, but were halted by Adrianna.

 

“You two seem to be a great team,” Adrianna said to Bruce and Zowe.

 

“Maybe not, if I had my own youth left,” Zowe replied.

 

“Whatever, it’s time to take out the trash,” said Bruce, the two went under and avoid Adrianna’s moves as they can, eventually, the switch turned on, and the fountain then revealed the second gem.

 

“Okay guys; let’s grab it before something bad happens!” Strezz said, the team, except for Cam, Dallas, and Sal jumped for the gem. Strezz grabbed it while Zack broke his leg and everyone was at their proper age except for Cam and Dallas.

 

“Damn freefall made me break my own leg,” said Zack.

 

”Hmph, I will be seeing all of you vandals later,” Adrianna then flew off and left with an idol-like piece. This time, it was downloaded into Zowe’s disc.

 

”I can feel those blood cells pumping now,” said Zowe.

 

”Professor Algae, we got the second gem,” Strezz communicated with his watch and placed the gem on the watch and it was sent to Prof. Algae with a snap. “And Sal, are you coming with us?” He asked.

 

”No, unfortunately I have to stay here until Cam and Dallas are back,” Sal replied.

 

*Video Journal*

 

Monique…I was bored.

 

*End*

 

”Well, it looks like we lost almost half of our team,” said Monique.

 

”Aw man, I don’t think my leg is feeling able-bodied, but I’m going to forge on, where I’m from, delinquents don’t quit,” said Zack.

 

The scene switches to Prof. Algae, he was pacing around one of the fountain rooms. Just then, Hector appeared and planted a chip in his shirt pocket. Now it’s back to Strezz and co.

 

“Prof. Algae, what’s the next fountain?” Strezz asked through his watch.

 

”And it better be quick too, cuz’ I know I hate long expeditions,” Zack added.

 

“The third of the destiny fountains is the Fountain of Disaster. Be careful now,” Prof. Algae replied to Strezz.

 

“We will, buddy,” Strezz replied back. He and co. now arrived at the third fountain.

[Steel Sponge]

6. The Eternal Key (Part 2 of 3)

As Strezz and co. were at the next destination, Hector showed up to guard the fountain. “Well, isn’t this a surprise,” he said. “I’d thought you all wouldn’t make this far.”

“Oh yeah, you’re just every other member like Cam said: and that is you’re a push-over!” Strezz taunted.

“Now you’re just making me jealous and- oh my goodness!” Hector said referring to Marina.

“Are you talking about this?” Marina asked, referring to Burden. “I found it outside of Seymour’s base, I believe this is yours.”

“You guys stole Burden, no one steals from me!” Hector replied.

“And that is the only reason why I’m proud for her,” said Zowe.

 

“Well, I wouldn’t say that stole-“Marina was saying.

 

“Shut up! It was your moment,” Zowe interrupted.

“Alright, we’ll settle this the hard way and- oh my freaking god! What is that?!” Hector said pointing to an empty direction. Making them look, Hector then stole Burden back, and then stole the Z-Storm jacket.

“What are you doing with Burden?” Marina asked.

“Oh and let me guess, you have no natural abilities except Crimson Kill, so you’re stealing some,” said Zack.

“Call me a loser all you want, ‘cause I do,” Hector replied. Then he saw Bruce and Monique. “Come with me.”

“Hey, we’re in a middle of something…!” said Bruce, they and Hector disappeared behind a wall. Bruce and Monique now appeared in another room.

“Okay, how did you two get inside here in the first place?” Hector asked.

“Some fruity CORE-al dude got us into this. First was a joyride on his submarine, and then he transferred us these,” Monique said showing one of the devices that got her and Bruce into the fountain exhibits.

“Vandyke is forgetting the mission,” Hector thought.

“Who’s Vandyke?” Bruce asked.

“Whoever that Algae guy is, you two will be surprised, and your little friends too,” Hector replied. After that, they were back in the fountain area.

“Well, you brought them back, I almost thought we were going to be useless,” said Strezz.

“Still, you all misjudged him, he is very talented with stealth and armory, me and Hector’s greatest power is almost complete,” said Burden.

“Crimson Storm DNA activate!” Hector exclaimed.

“Great, he now has a battle cry,” Zowe said sarcastically.

With that, Burden grabbed the Z-Storm jacket and Hector used a device, almost same from Strezz and co. Crimson Kill’s appearance was altered with 50% of Z-Storm’s attributes. He and Burden were now Crimson Storm. His new appearance was in flashing red and blue. Also with a blue cape, red skinned, and most parts with half blue and half red, like the yin and the yang.

“And what was that you were all saying?” Hector said after it was complete.

“Oh crap,” Bruce remarked and then says towards Zowe, “Will you hold me?”

 

“No!”

“In addition, my trusty comrade Burden is also known for the knowledge of the latest CORE-al technology, as well as Seymour’s. He’s the most elusive in reboots, repair, and recharge, the three R’s!” Hector continued.

Hector then activated an earthquake, to make the fountain active and cause an unfortunate disaster, starting with a tornado. Hector then rocketed his missiles and hit Bruce as it exploded with static electricity. Hector was now quick enough to engage another assail: crimson cannon which almost hit Strezz.

”You have to do something!” Zowe said to Strezz.

“I will, but I can’t. Hector has the upper-hand now!” Strezz replied. Just then, an introduced crimson blast was coming close to Strezz. “Bull-“he was interrupted after the massive take down.

Then, with an extraordinary mix of Hector’s fist and Strezz’s laser blade gave some of the members a shocking blow. Hector then unleashed a physical version of his previous command and hit Zowe with a flash of crimson red. In addition, the tornado paralyzed her and Monique. Just then, Zack jumped and punched Hector’s mechanical gut. The fountain is still functioning while Hector is still stalling the gang and guarding the switch. The fountain then activated a tsunami and hit Strezz ‘just like that’ and he was still standing. Hector then unleashed another introductory attack with Z-Storm’s attributes. It formed an X and Zowe once again, plus Captain Tide. Strezz was dodging along as the fountain activated a storm, until the power went out, with only Hector that can see. Shazza felt nothing also and reached for the switch. The power went back on as Hector used his missiles again at a free styled aim, which hit Shazza out of the way and Captain Tide again. Then comes another crimson blast, and this time, it hit everyone except Zack. Zack continued doing his trademarks fighting style until he killed enough screws and bolts. Crimson Storm was now deactivated and Shazza was near the button.

”It’s about time,” said Zowe.

”No! Not quite!” Captain Tide said.

Everyone then saw Crimson Storm giving out static charge, which came from Burden, giving it enough energy to fight.

“Click the switch! Click the switch!” Zowe referred to Shazza, in panic.

Just then, the fountain activated a strong hurricane, paralyzing Shazza and Monique. “I know mate, but Hector and Burden’s power together…” Shazza thought.

“No matter what he’s doing, he might be abusing it,” said Strezz. The hurricane was coming closer to Strezz. Marina came in swift, running like an antelope. Along with Strezz, she jumped out of the hurricane’s sight.

“How are we going to beat this?” Strezz thought. Just then, Zack appeared from an air vent.

“Get in if you want to survive,” said Zack.

“Since when did you care about us? But never mind, since you given us a safe place,” Strezz said. He and Marina carelessly got inside.

“Don’t tell me, you have nothing planned,” Strezz assumed.

“No, I have a way to stop Hector and his supply of power. The main source is the gadget dork’s witty eel sidekick,” Zack replied. “No matter what, Hector will keep wasting Crimson Storm’s power until Burden runs out of static energy,” he continued.

“Zack, at times you’re a very unpleasant person, but at least your brain’s working,” said Zowe.

“And how will that help us get the third ingredient to the Eternal Key?” Strezz asked.

“I don’t know, I didn’t say I gave a damn about that thing,” Zack replied.

”So we’re just going to have to wing it, right?” Strezz thought.

They got out and the hurricane was still raging. Strezz, Zack, and Marina were possibly the only ones spot on from danger. Monique, Bruce, Zowe, Marissa, and Captain Tide still manage to get injured from the fountain’s horrible disasters, while Shazza is hiding from Hector and the hurricane. Strezz and the rest gave Shazza their idea, and it started with another surprise jump attack on Hector, Shazza was on him while the other three were near the switch.

“Sure, do whatever it is you want,” Zack said to Strezz.

“Earth to Zack, we also need to buy some time, by getting the next objective,” Strezz then turned off the fountain, now making the hurricane vanish like a magic trick.

Steadily, Strezz ran and grabbed it, while Bruce, Monique, Shazza, Zowe, Marissa, and Captain Tide still stand on the floor, looking paralyzed. Unfortunately, Hector was still feisty and strong-willed.

“We got it!” Strezz said taking a breath.

“Congratulations, now let’s get out of here, kick Hector’s butt, and….well that is about it, and forget everything else!” Zack replied.

“And there’s only three of us,” Marina added.

“Sure, hopefully, the rest will regain their grips, and Cam, Dallas, and Sal will return soon enough,” said Strezz.

“I guess we’ll have to be freaking lucky to get the key,” said Zack.

“Then move! We’re near the next fountain!” Strezz said. “As usual,” he added. He then transferred the third gem to Prof. Algae. Moments later, Hector was in the way of the fountain view.

“Fourth one, you’re going to be proven wrong that this whole mission is complicated for you Strezz, and your tedious sidekicks!” Hector said.

”Prof. Algae, we got the third one, and we’re at the next fountain. Do you care to explain the next one?” Strezz said to Prof. Algae from his wrist watch.

“Up next is the Fountain of Thought,” Prof. Algae answered, “Any situations?”

”Yeah, we found Hector’s eel. he then took it back along with my Z-Storm jacket. Burden is his secret weapon, and with Crimson Storm, he’s harder to defeat now!” Strezz replied.

”What makes you think you can’t beat Hector?” Prof. Algae asked.

“No time, talk to you later!” Strezz then turned off the device.

“Okay everyone, watch and learn the way of the Fountain of Thought,” said Hector, he then dived down, and…

“And voila, I guess it didn’t work,” Strezz said in a sarcastic way.

Just then, Zack fell into the ground, as Strezz and Marina noticed his mind was exchanged.

“I should’ve known. Explain it to us, Hector!” Strezz said to Hector.

“The Fountain of Thought exchanges the opponent’s mind to another, depending whom you are thinking of. Take Burden for example, I have traded Burden’s personality to Zack, while Burden has Zack’s strong-will and ignorance, while Zack takes no orders from you two,” Hector explained.

”I can’t believe you had this plan – all in your head!” Marina said.

“Ugh, I need reinforcements real badly,” Strezz thought. Just then, Sal, Cam, and Dallas appeared at the scene, now their normal selves.” Great, you three are back! Now I need you guys to help us defeat Hector before he slays us!” He continued.

“Hector has given himself a higher edge now?” Cam asked.

“There are only five of us, and his new upgrade gave him that edge,” Strezz replied.

“Strezz, please don’t tell me you transferred the three gems to Professor Algae,” said Sal.

“I’ll tell you in a momet, but right now, look out!” Strezz then pushed Sal out of the way. “But yes, I did give the Professor the gems.”

”Well I’m starting to realize something very fishy going around with Professor Algae, and I think I know what is,” Sal replied.

“Would it also be nice enough for you to get the rest of our team back here?” Strezz asked, Sal agreed. “Okay, Cam and Dallas will stay in our situation.” Sal then left to find the rest of the team in the third fountain room.

“Do you have a plan, Strezz?” Dallas asked.

“Yes: get in the Fountain of Thought!” Strezz replied. “Like Cam, you’re one of the smart ones, think about which mind to exchange to give yourself a little edge, but avoid Hector as fast as you can first!”

”You got it. And as long as nothing goes wrong, what about Hector?” He asked again.

”Long story! Dodge quickly, he’s the not the only one with a bigger advantage!” Strezz answered. “Zack, I hope you have some brains left in there!”

“True, but I only take actions from Hector,” Zack replied.

”What are the odds,” Strezz said, looking annoyed.

Hector was back in action and fired his missiles again, and aimed for Dallas. As Strezz said, Dallas dodged them. Dallas dived in and traded Cam’s mind.

“Okay Dallas, we’ll just be careful, and we’ll also make sure Zack doesn’t do anything dumb,” said Strezz.

Hector brings out his attack that looked like an X again. It was used it and the ground was shaking, Strezz, Marina, Cam, and Dallas were alright. Dallas was hiding, like Cam. Hector uses his laser sword/fist mix again and directly hits Cam. Next were the crimson cannon, hitting Strezz and Marina. Strezz got up and was near the switch while Cam punched Crimson Storm. Dallas hits the same enemy, in mid-air; the damage was nearly intense. Hector used his cannon again and aimed more than once. Dallas tugged Strezz to where Hector can’t hit him while Marina and Cam dodged. Strezz and Dallas had some turns with their basic defenses and punched Hector again. Crimson Storm has fallen, but Burden recharged and started his laser blade/blood fist again and hit both Cam and Dallas. Hector then grabbed Strezz and Marina; Hector unleashed his electrifying missiles by hand and paralyzed both of them. Dallas got up, got Cam to a direction Hector can’t hit, and grabbed both Strezz and Marina by surprise along with an intense hit. Hector then pushed Marina into the fountain, and suddenly…nothing happened.

“Impossible…” said Cam.

“Marina has half of Warden’s abilities,” said Dallas.

“Okay people, let’s continue!” Strezz replied. Just then, Hector was ready to fire a crimson blast; therefore introducing a powerful attack.

“Hmm, I got a good feeling about this,” Dallas thought.

Finally, the blast fired, like a bomb went off; causing a nearly massive explosion. Everyone except Zack, Hector, and Burden were affected by the blast. Hector launched his missiles and hit Strezz, Dallas, Cam, and Marina. (All four of them) Hector then decides to finish it off, with an oncoming tsunami, and directly hit the same amount of guys.

”We’re going to lose big time…” said Strezz.

”Of course, I won and you all failed!” Hector replied. “You’ve all proved me wrong, and this is as far as you all can get, let’s finish this!” Hector then unleashed his next crimson blast.

“Wait, I want last requests, come on dude!” Dallas said.

“It’s too late!” Hector was ready, aiming, and firing, until Shazza hit him by surprise. Sal, Monique, Bruce, her, Zowe, Marissa, and Captain Tide finally arrived back. “So the entire team has made it, but still, you’re all no match for me!”

 

“You keep saying that,” says Cam.

The entire team took turns in basic attacks, and Crimson Storm has fallen again. Burden repaired him again, but this time, only half of Crimson Storm was restored.

”Just as Zack and I planned, Burden’s running out of energy,” said Strezz.

After that, Hector pushed everyone except Strezz and Marina into the fountain. Suddenly, Zack had his mind back, while everyone else just stood motionless on the ground.

”Wow, I’m feeling my own self again,” said Zack.

”Sure, and Hector’s close to his downfall,” Strezz remarks, “Looks like this is our fight.”

“Hmm, I guess I saw that one coming, but no matter, now that Burden has most of your team’s thoughts and personifications,” said Hector.

“You and Marina stay there, I have a plan,” Zack then grabbed Crimson Storm and submerged into the fountain. Zack has traded Hector’s mind, and it seems that Hector is fighting, with Zack’s brains.

“Hey, you get back here!” Zack said. Hector then noticed the reset button on Crimson Storm’s controls and pressed it, causing a shining light to appear. Crimson Storm was unable to do any more damage, as Z-Storm and Crimson return to their unaltered jacket forms, and leaving Burden and Hector on the floor.

“Damn it, I question why a button like that was installed in the first place,” said Zack.

“I guess that’s how Z-Storm was built, now I just have to get rid of the problem,” Strezz then reached for switch, until Zack and Burden got hold of Strezz’s leg. “Oh sure, I forgot about that part.”

“This is not the end!” Zack exclaimed. Burden then gave out static energy he had from Strezz’s team and was about to shock him like lightning, until Marina grabbed Strezz out of the way. Burden’s energy was released and it apparently missed, also making a huge crack on the floor.

“Come on, let’s activate it before Zack does something crazy!” Strezz said to Marina. As usual, the fountain was stopped and two were about to grab the next gem. That was until, they heard an earthquake. The floor was 45% demolished and they grabbed everyone except Hector and Burden into the safe spot. After that, the fourth gem was theirs and everyone had their brains back.

“Thank goodness that was over,” said Strezz, “and we finally got it!”

Back to Hector and Burden, they fell flat on one of the previous floors and one of the same idol pieces bounced off and landed on the earthquake damaged room. It was suddenly downloaded to Zack’s disc.

“I hope they’re okay,” Marina thought.

”They will be alright, we kicked their asses a bunch of times, and they’re still fine,” said Zack. “Sadly enough, I have half of his abilities.”

“I also wonder who or what caused that earthquake,” Strezz thought.

”No time, if it keeps happening, we have to get out and get the Eternal Key quick!” Sal said.

Strezz transferred the next gem to Prof. Algae, and he and co. were near the last fountain, and the last piece to the Eternal Key.

”The last fountain of destiny is the Fountain of Radiation, it’s very unstable,” Sal reminded. They arrived and saw Matt and Prof. Algae on a throne.

6. The Eternal Key (Part 2 of 3)

 

As Strezz and co. arrived at the next destination, Hector appeared. “Well, isn’t this a surprise,” he said. “I’d thought you all wouldn’t make this far.”

 

“Oh yeah, you’re just every other servant: truly a push-over,” said Strezz.

 

“Now you’re just making me jealous and- oh my goodness, what is that on your arm?!” Hector said referring to Marina.

 

“I don’t know, I found it outside of Seymour’s base,” Marina replied.

 

“You guys stole Burden, no one steals from me,” Hector replied.

 

“And that is the only reason why I’m proud for her,” said Zowe.

 

“Okay then, we’ll settle this the hard way and- oh my freaking god! What is that?!” Hector said pointing to an empty direction. Making them look, Hector then stole Burden back, and then stole the Z-Storm jacket.

 

“Hey, what are you doing with Burden, whatever he is?” Marina asked.

 

“And let me guess, you have no natural abilities except Crimson Kill, so you steal some,” said Zack.

 

“Call me a loser all you want, cuz’ I do,” Hector replied. Then he saw Bruce and Monique. “Come with me.”

 

“Hey, we’re in a middle of something…” said Bruce, they and Hector disappeared behind a wall. Bruce and Monique now appear in another room.

 

“Okay, how did you two get inside here in the first place?” Hector asked.

 

“Some fruity Zech-Tech person got us into this. First was a joyride on his submarine, and he transferred us these,” Monique said showing one of the devices that got her and Bruce into the fountain exhibits.

 

“That Vandyke is forgetting the mission,” Hector thought.

 

“Who’s Vandyke?” Bruce asked.

 

“Whoever that Algae guy is, you two will be surprised, and your little friends too,” Hector replied. After that, they were back in the fountain area.

 

“Well, you brought them back, I almost thought we were going to be useless,” said Strezz.

 

“Still, you all misjudged him, he is sophisticatedly talented with stealth and armory, me and Hector’s greatest power is almost complete,” said Burden.

 

“Crimson Storm DNA activate!” Hector exclaimed.

 

“Great, he now has a battle cry,” Zowe said sarcastically.

 

With that, Burden grabbed the Z-Storm jacket and Hector used a device, almost same from Strezz and co. Crimson Kill’s appearance was altered with 50% of Z-Storm’s attributes. He and Burden were now Crimson Storm. His new appearance was in flashing red and blue. Also with a blue cape, red skinned, and most parts with half blue and half red, like the yin and the yang.

 

“And what was that you were all saying?” Hector said after it was complete.

 

“Ah, hold me!” Bruce exclaimed and then got on Zowe’s arms until she pushed him off.

 

“In addition, my trusty comrade Burden is also known for the knowledge of the latest Zech Tech technology and Seymour’s technology. He’s the most elusive in reboots, repair, and recharge, the three R’s!” Hector continued.

 

Hector then activated an earthquake, to make the fountain active and cause an unfortunate disaster, starting with a tornado. Hector then rocketed his missiles and hit Bruce as it exploded with static electricity. Hector was now quick enough to engage another assail: crimson cannon which almost hit Strezz.

 

”He’s too strong, do something!” Zowe said to Strezz.

 

“Whatever you say, but I can’t, Hector has everything!” Strezz replied. Just then, an introduced crimson blast was coming close to Strezz. “Bull-“he was interrupted after the huge take down.

 

Then, with an extraordinary mix of Hector’s fist and Strezz’s laser blade gave some of the members a shocking blow. Hector then unleashed a physical version of his previous command and hit Zowe with a flash of crimson red. In addition, the tornado paralyzed her and Monique. Just then, Zack jumped and punched Hector’s mechanical gut. The fountain is still functioning while Hector is still stalling the gang and guarding the switch. The fountain then activated a tsunami and hit Strezz ‘just like that’ and he was still standing. Hector then unleashed another introductory attack with Z-Storm’s attributes. It formed an X and Zowe once again, plus Captain Tide. Strezz was dodging along as the fountain activated a storm, until the power went out, with only Hector that can see. Shazza felt nothing also and reached for the switch. The power went back on as Hector used his missiles again at a free styled aim, which hit Shazza out of the way and Captain Tide again. Then comes another crimson blast, and this time, it hit everyone except Zack. Zack continued doing his trademarks fighting style until he killed enough screws and bolts. Crimson Storm was now unactivated and Shazza was near the button.

 

”It’s about time,” said Zowe.

 

”No! Not quite!” Captain Tide said.

 

Everyone then saw Crimson Storm giving out statical charge, which came from Burden, giving it enough energy to fight.

 

“Click the switch! Click the switch!” Zowe referred to Shazza, in panic.

 

Just then, the fountain activated a strong hurricane, paralyzing Shazza and Monique. “I know mate, but Hector’s power…” Shazza thought.

 

“No matter what, he might be abusing it,” said Strezz. The hurricane was coming closer to Strezz. Marina came in swift, running like an antelope. Along with Strezz, she jumped out of the hurricane’s sight.

 

“Great, how are we going to beat the impossible?” Strezz thought. Just then, Zack appeared from an air vent.

 

“Get in if you want to survive,” said Zack.

 

“Since when did you care about us, but fine, for you live inside an air duct,” Strezz said. He and Marina carelessly got inside.

 

“Don’t tell me, you have nothing planned,” said Strezz.

 

“No, I can beat the impossible; the main source is gadget fan’s witty eel sidekick,” Zack replied. “No matter what, Hector will keep wasting Crimson Storm’s power until Burden runs out of statical energy,” he continued.

 

“Zack, you’re very unpleasant, but at least your brain’s always working,” said Marina.

 

“And how will that help us get the third ingredient to the Eternal Key?” Strezz asked.

 

“I don’t know, I didn’t say I gave a damn about that thing,” Zack replied.

 

”So we’re just going to have to wing it, right?” Strezz thought.

 

They got out and the hurricane was still raging. Strezz, Zack, and Marina were possibly the only ones spot on from danger. Monique, Bruce, Zowe, Marissa, and Captain Tide still manage to get injured from the fountain’s horrible disasters, while Shazza is hiding from Hector and the hurricane. Strezz and the rest gave Shazza their idea, and it started with another surprise jump attack on Hector, Shazza was on him while the other three were near the switch.

 

“Sure, do whatever it is you want,” Zack said to Strezz.

 

“Earth to Zack, we also need to buy some time, by getting the next objective,” Strezz then turned off the fountain, now making the hurricane vanish like a magic show in Vegas.

 

Steadily, Strezz ran and grabbed it, while Bruce, Monique, Shazza, Zowe, Marissa, and Captain Tide still stand on the floor, looking paralyzed. Unfortunately, Hector was still feisty and strong-willed.

 

“We got it!” Strezz said taking a breath.

 

“Congratulations, now let’s get out of here, kick Hector’s arse, and….well that is about it, and forget everything else!” Zack replied.

 

“And there’s only three of us,” Marina added.

 

“Sure, hopefully, the rest will regain their grips, and Cam, Dallas, and Sal will return in no time,” said Strezz.

 

“Maybe, the square root of no time is never, I guess I have the honors to say nothing will let us have the freaking key but luck,” said Zack.

 

“Then move! We’re near the next fountain!” Strezz said. “As usual,” he added. He then transferred the third gem to Prof. Algae. Moments later, Hector was in the way of the fountain view.

 

“Fourth one, you’re going to be proven wrong that this whole mission is complicated for you Strezz, and your tedious sidekicks,” said Hector.

 

*Video Journal*

 

Zack: Speaking of tedious, this island gets much worse. Lame villains, being stuck with Cam…I cannot take it anymore.

 

*End*

 

”Prof. Algae, we got the third one, and we’re at the next fountain, care to explain the next one,” Strezz said to Prof. Algae from his wrist watch.

 

“Next is the Fountain of Thought,” Prof. Algae answered, “Any situations?”

 

”Yeah, we found Hector’s eel, he then took it back along with my Z-Storm jacket, Burden is figured as his secret weapon, and with Crimson Storm, he’s utterly impossible now!” Strezz replied.

 

”What makes you think you can’t beat Hector?” Prof. Algae asked.

 

“No time, talk to you later!” Strezz then turned off the device.

 

“Okay everyone, watch and learn the way of the Fountain of Thought,” said Hector, he then dived down, and…

 

“And voila, I guess it didn’t work,” Strezz said in a sarcastic way.

 

Just then, Zack fell into the ground, as Strezz and Marina noticed his mind was exchanged.

 

“Okay, it worked. Care to give us an explanation?” Strezz said to Hector.

 

“The Fountain of Thought exchanges the opponent’s mind to another, depending whom you are thinking of. Take Burden for example, I have traded Burden’s personality to Zack, while Burden has Zack’s strong-will and bliss ignorance, while Zack takes no orders from you two,” Hector explained.

 

”I can’t believe you had this plan, all in your head!” Marina said.

 

“Ugh, I need reinforcements,” Strezz thought to himself. Just then, Sal, Cam, and Dallas appeared in their normal selves.” Great, you three are back! Now help us defeat Hector, before he slays us!” He continued.

 

“What makes you all think Hector’s going to beat you guys?” Cam asked.

 

“There are only five of us, and his new upgrade gave him an edge,” Strezz replied.

 

“And Strezz, please don’t tell me you transferred the three gems to Professor Algae,” said Sal.

 

“I’ll tell you after you look out!” Strezz then pushed Sal out of the way. “Yes, not like it bothers you or anything.”

 

”Well, it does. Something very fishy is going around Professor Algae, and I know what, but I’m keeping that expectation as a surprise,” Sal replied.

 

“Would it also be nice enough for you to get the rest of our team back here?” Strezz asked, Sal agreed. “Okay, Cam and Dallas will stay in our situation.” Sal then left to find the rest of the team in the third fountain room.

 

“You have a plan Strezz?” Dallas asked.

 

“Yes: get in the Fountain of Thought!” Strezz replied. “Like Cam, you’re one of the smart one, think about which mind to exchange to give yourself a little edge, but avoid Hector as fast as you can first!”

 

”Alright, as long as nothing goes wrong, and what about Hector?” He asked again.

 

”Long story! Dodge quickly, he’s the not the only one with a good edge!” Strezz answered. “Zack, I hope you have some brains left in there!”

 

“Truthfully, but I only take actions to Hector,” Zack replied.

 

”Of course,” Strezz thought.

 

Hector was back in action and fired his missiles again, and aimed for Dallas. As Strezz said, Dallas dodged them. Dallas dived in and traded Cam’s mind.

 

“Okay Dallas, we’ll just be careful, and we’ll also make sure Zack doesn’t do anything dumb,” said Strezz.

 

Hector brings out his attack that looked like an X again. It was used it and the ground was shaking, Strezz, Marina, Cam, and Dallas were alright. Dallas was hiding, like Cam. Hector uses his laser sword/fist mix again and directly hits Cam. Next were the crimson cannon, hitting Strezz and Marina. Strezz got up and was near the switch while Cam punched Crimson Storm. Dallas hits the same enemy, in mid-air; the damage was nearly intense. Hector used his cannon again and aimed more than once. Dallas tugged Strezz to where Hector can’t hit him while Marina and Cam dodged. Strezz and Dallas had some turns with their basic defenses and punched Hector again. Crimson Storm has fallen, but Burden recharged and started his laser blade/blood fist again and hit both Cam and Dallas. Hector then grabbed Strezz and Marina; Hector unleashed his electrifying missiles by hand and paralyzed both of them. Dallas got up, got Cam to a direction Hector can’t hit, and grabbed both Strezz and Marina by surprise along with an intense hit. Hector then pushed Marina into the fountain, and suddenly…nothing happened.

 

“Impossible…” said Cam.

 

“Marina has half of Warden’s abilities,” said Dallas.

 

“Okay wise men, let’s continue!” Strezz replied. Just then, Hector was ready to fire a crimson blast; therefore introducing a powerful attack.

 

“Hmm, I got a good feeling about this,” Dallas thought.

 

*Video Journal*

 

Strezz: I have a bad feeling about this…

 

*End*

 

Finally, the blast fired, like a bomb went off; causing a nearly massive explosion. Everyone except Zack, Hector, and Burden were affected by the blast. Hector launched his missiles and hit Strezz, Dallas, Cam, and Marina.(all four of them)Hector then decides to finish it off, with a oncoming tsunami, and directly hit the same amount of guys.

 

”We lost, this time…” said Strezz.

 

”Of course, I won and you all failed,” Hector replied. “You’ve all proved me wrong, and this is as far as you all can get, let’s finish this!” Hector then unleashed his next crimson blast.

 

“Wait, I want last requests, come on dude!” Cam said.

 

“I would allow it, but it’s too late!” Hector was ready, aiming, and firing, until Shazza hit him by surprise. Sal, Monique, Bruce, her, Zowe, Marissa, and Captain Tide finally arrived back. “So the entire team has made it, but still, you’re all no match for me!”

 

The entire team took turns in basic attacks, and Crimson Storm has fallen again. Burden repaired him again, but this time, only half of Crimson Storm was restored.

 

”Just as me and Zack planned, Burden’s running out of energy,” said Strezz.

 

After that, Hector pushed everyone except Strezz and Marina into the fountain. Suddenly, Zack had his mind back, while everyone else just stood motionless on the ground.

 

”Wow, I’m back,” said Zack.

 

”Sure, and Hector’s close to his downfall,” Strezz replied, “looks like this is our fight.”

 

“Hmm, I guess I saw that one coming, but no matter, now that Burden has most of your team’s thoughts and personifications,” said Hector.

 

“You and Marina stay there, I have a plan,” Zack then grabbed Crimson Storm and submerged into the fountain. Zack has traded Hector’s mind, and it seems that Hector is fighting, with Zack’s brains.

 

“Hey, you get back here!” Zack said. Hector then noticed the reset button on Crimson Storm’s controls and pressed it, causing a shining light to appear. Crimson Storm has fallen, as Z-Storm and Crimson return to their unaltered jacket forms, and leaving Burden and Hector on the floor.

 

“Damn it, I question why a button like that was installed in the first place,” said Zack.

 

“I guess that’s how Z-Storm was built, now all I have to do is get rid of the problem,” Strezz then reached for switch, until Zack and Burden got hold of Strezz’s leg. “Oh sure, I forgot about that part.”

 

“This is not the end!” Zack exclaimed. Burden then gave out statical energy he had from Strezz’s team and was about to shock him like lightning, until Marina grabbed Strezz out of the way. Burden’s energy was released and it apparently missed, also making a huge crack on the floor.

 

“Let’s activate it before Zack does something crazy!” Strezz said to Marina. As usual, the fountain was stopped and two were about to grab the next gem. That was until, they heard an earthquake. The floor was 45% demolished and they grabbed everyone except Hector and Burden into the safe spot. After that, the fourth gem was theirs and everyone had their brains back.

 

“Thank goodness that was over,” said Strezz, “and we finally got it!”

 

Back to Hector and Burden, they fell flat on one of the previous floors and one of the same idol pieces bounced off and landed on the earthquake damaged room. It was suddenly downloaded to Zack’s disc.

 

“I hope they’re okay,” Marina thought.

 

”They will be alright, we kicked their asses a bunch of times, and they’re still fine,” said Zack. “Sadly enough, I have half of his abilities.”

 

“I also wonder who or what caused that earthquake,” Strezz thought.

 

”No time, if it keeps happening, we have to get out and get the Eternal Key quick!” Sal said.

 

Strezz transferred the next gem to Prof. Algae, and he and co. were near the last fountain, and the last piece to the Eternal Key.

 

”The last fountain of destiny is the Fountain of Radiation, it’s very unstable,” Sal reminded. They arrived and saw Matt and Prof. Algae on a throne.

[Steel Sponge]

6. Eternal Key (Part 3 of 3)

“Well, well, well, look who decided to interfere with our plans,” said Matt.

“Yep, we just want the freaking key and the final gem” said Strezz.

“Wait, Professor Algae, how did you even get here before us?” Bruce asked. Prof. Algae gave a look.

“As far as I can remember, Matt kidnapped me, or I’m just pondering, you all know I can’t just sit and do nothing, like some guy in the sidelines,” Prof. Algae replied.

“There’s a huge misunderstanding with this mission, one of them is that you’re all not allowed to be in here,” said Matt.

“We fight crime; that’s our job,” Monique pointed out.

“You’re all still missing the point, even if you all didnt come here in the first place, the Eternal Key would be ours, and it IS in our possession!” Matt replied.

“Just watch us try and it take it from you.” Zowe said.

”You know we have all four, and Professor Algae has them in safe keeping,” Captain Tide declared.

Matt then gave out a laugh, “I can assure that you were all falling for our trap during this type of mission, you don’t have the gems; WE have the gems.”

“Don’t listen, you guys fight and be strong,” Prof. Algae said to the gang.

“Thank you for the encouragement, but I hardly believe anything you’re uttering,” said Cam. “You crashed your submarine, you were a V.I.P to the temple’s program, and you know Matt.”

“Something is wrong with this picture,” said Captain Tide.

”Indeed it is,” said Hector as he and Burden approached.

”It’s that guy again,” Zack said, gritting his teeth.

“Yes it is me! If you’re all still confused, take a closer look,” Hector then activates the communication device from Prof. Algae’s collar, as it starts beeping.

”What’s going on?” Prof. Algae asked.

“You can’t hide it anymore, that tracking device is a brand of CORE-al technology by the TMD,” said Burden.

“Vandyke, that orb…what are you doing with our orb?” Hector asked. “You do realize that can blow up the temple…”

“And why would you keep something unstable as that?” Zowe said to Hector.

“It’s a powerful tool for Crimson Kill. May I mention that he’s connecting it to your discs?” Hector continued. Zowe, Marina, and Zack’s discs are shown making strange noises.

“We made it this far, Mr. Algae, now tell us what the hell’s going on!” Strezz said. “You’re against us, aren’t you?”

Professor Algae chuckled a little bit, and then laughed out a…”MUHAHAHAHAHAHA!”

“I knew something’s wrong...first off, what gives you the instance to send us here in the first place?” Monique replied.

“Gullible teenagers, you know how hard it is to get you all killed and retrieve the gems at the same time?” Prof. Algae said, revealing his dark side.

“Ugh, I should’ve known this was a misunderstanding.” Strezz asked.

“I used all of you to retrieve the gems and bring them back! I knew you were all going to make this far! In addition, I was the one to send Warden, Adrianna, and Hector to try and kill you all.” Prof. Algae confessed.

“Then why is Hector so furious with you? And why is Matt convincing us to leave?” Cam asked.

“Hector, he’s just too easy. Matt: he was exaggerating. He’s going to annihilate you all no matter what! The explanation of the discs and the orb, I took the orb and linked it to the discs. When they’re used, they will explode!” Prof. Algae continued.

”Then what are you doing with the orb…? Hector questioned.

“Hector. I just want a very dangerous tool from you. Proudly using it against these castaways,” he replied. “It may be valuable to you, but that orb isn’t in good control, so that’s why I replaced it before your fight.”

”Hmm, so that’s where Hector got some extra power…” Bruce thought.

“Besides, what’s this Vandyke nonsense?” said Monique.

Prof. Algae then tore off his “professor coat,” revealing his spiking hair, and black shirt. “I am Vandyke! Luckily, you’re all at a highly unstable fountain, I have all four gems, and when your discs are used, YOU’RE ALL GOING TO DIE HERE!”

“There’s some connection…why hate all of us?” Sal asked.

“Sal Modo, Nelson Tide, and your lame-ass CORE-al company, I wanted revenge and turned to these people! It’s no wonder that submarine was branded by CORE-al! I wanted revenge by showing off my most dedicated work, I was unappreciated. This all lead to my chance of being one of the leaders of the TMD!” Vandyke explained.

“You’ve done all this to take out your anger on the CORE-al company?!” Shazza said astonished.

“Hmm, I can explain more, but furthermore, I’ve known Matt long before,” Vandyke continued.

”I became one of the leaders after my urge to take revenge on you, Cameron!” Matt said. “You were an annoying brother; ever since you got me real jealous, I and Vandyke’s massive study on Z-Storm changed everything! You cannot beat us!”

“Please don’t tell me that this organization was planned for revenge!” Cam replied.

”Surely, our founder Seymour formed it ever since his fall against one of Strezz Stormond’s greatest ancestors,” Matt explained. “We will explain more sooner or later. We bet you all can’t survive!”

Suddenly, Cam’s disc was had a magnetic pull to a nearby idol, it was partially Matt’s powers.

”The Fountain of Radiation: our greatest weapon, I’m going to let Matthew here demonstrate!” Vandyke exclaimed. Matt dipped into the fountain, revealing his stronger version of Dark Goliath.

“Cam’s brother is annoying enough, but you cut some slack, we did nothing to you!” Zack said to Vandyke.

“Something tells me you’re all the reason why we ended up here, right?” Strezz asked.

“Well, this is how: I’ve had Matt to make you win that contest, Hector, master of disguise in some cases, caused you all to end up in this beach, while yours truly decided to make Bruce look gullible with his map! While Seymour decided to kidnap some of your closest guests, such as Zowe,” Vandyke explained. “Seriously, I wonder what it stands for or what it’s short for.”

“Whatever, how about we get this over with?” Bruce said.

“Hmm, since I got Matt’s spare powers, I wonder if I can activate Z-Storm’s DNA with this,” Cam was thinking, while Matt and Vandyke is storming up a conversation. “Storm Goliath DNA activate!” He said. Dark Goliath from Cams disc and Z-Storm were combined.

“I thought it only works via jacket,” said Strezz.

“Well my friend, they said nothing about not being via disc,” said Cam.

“Cam, your beautiful image…” Monique said sounding shocked.

“Monique, this is for civilization as we know it,” Cam replied.

 

“What civilization?” Monique replied.

The big fight begins. It starts with Cam using dark/lightning pistols (since missiles are jumping the shark), and it barely scratched Matt. Matt then used his handy dandy mega blast, causing a short term earthquake. Cam and Strezz used a dual laser blade while Matt used three. Matt’s powerful strength inflicted damage on Dark Goliath. Strezz then activated a powerful dark cannon blast to hit Matt. Matt crossed the beams, a powerful signal that is. Cam and Strezz sprung back in action and used a dark lightning burst combo, related to the pistol attack. Matt brought out his blade, while Cam and Strezz used theirs. Once again, it was a sword-counter fight, using them as defense over and over. Matt did a Matrix styled flip and brought out two. Strezz used the dark/lightning pistols again and the view was hazy like a smoke bomb going off. Strezz used his blade to attack Matt, while Matt flew to a clear surrounding. Matt brought out a machine gun and shot dark, miniature bullets at Strezz and Cam. Matt was then ready for another blade move and Cam decides to block, while Strezz then flew and used the dark cannon blast again. Just then, Matt smacked the deactivation button, preventing Storm Goliath from working anymore.

“We lost, Matt has some proficiency back there,” Strezz thought.

“His powers are doubled from that radiation, not even a single combination can overwhelm Matt,” said Cam. Strezz then had an idea.

“I got a plan,” Strezz then ran to the radiation fountain with his disc. “It may be unstable, but this is for the Eternal Key!” Strezz then dived into the fountain and gave out a loud scream. Z-Storm appeared with a bigger design. Armor flashed with blue and white. The letter z had a larger extent on the chest also.

“Levitas Lacus!” Sal said with surprise, “Alternate form of Z-Storm.”

“Alright mates, this is my fight,” said Shazza.

“Shazza…” said Cam.

“I have a disc, and I’m going to use it no matter what. I’ve also been in fights like these, and retrieving gems cannot be my only job in this turf,” Shazza replied.

“Good luck then,” said Marina.

The second round began. First, Shazza activated her Z-Storm attributes from her disc. Strezz/Levitas’ first move and introduced for his alternate form was called a Hydro Sphere, it attacked and inflicted damaged that was twice as strong as the original Z-Storm. Shazza activated a lightning blast and manages to hit Matt again, but lightly. Strezz then activate another one called the Plasma Quake, and hits Matt again. Matt then used a powerful darkness blast and hit both Strezz and Shazza. Shazza activated the plasma cannon, while Strezz used another Hydro Sphere. Part of the windows started to crack, pulling in some water. Matt used his blade again, while Strezz uses his blade, which is longer and somewhat sharper apparently. Another sword-counter fight has begun. Shazza then activated her virtual blade, and cause a short explosion. Strezz then used a lightning blast, twofold the power. Matt then used his Hurricane Stick, and directly damaged Strezz and Shazza. Strezz used his Plasma Quake again; water was flowing through the throne room. Matt brought out his blade while Strezz did the same. Strezz’s stamina caused more damage to Matt, while Shazza was brought to the air, and activated a lightning blast in the water, and Strezz uses his Plasma Quake once again to create an immensely strong combination on Matt. Matt used his hurricane stick again, to hit Strezz; Shazza dodged it though. Strezz flew and threw his blade from above, and Matt manages to block it. Strezz attempts another Hydro Sphere, while Shazza uses her plasma cannon again.

 

Matt then started a new combination. He used his hurricane stick, used his powerful darkness beams, and created some kind of black hole. Strezz then used another Plasma Quake, and lightning blast to create a tsunami. Both attacks collided with another explosion. The three fighters were on the ground, and the flowing water disappeared. Strezz and Matt got up, and the windows were fixed. Matt unleashed his darkness blast, directly hitting Shazza. Shazza then used her virtual blade for her barrier. Strezz was now from behind and used his Hydro Sphere. While Matt was spinning his hurricane stick creating a strong wind. Strezz then did another Plasma Quake, making more intense wind. Matt was spinning until he did another Matrix flip and brought out his two blades. Matt strikes Strezz with his stick first, and got up in the air, using his blades, but Shazza blocks it. Strezz used his lightning blast again, while Shazza did hers from the disc, then was another blade counter fight as each of them used their blades.

 

Matt manages to strike Strezz once more. Matt then used his dark blast and beams at once while Strezz used his Hydro Sphere, and lightning blast at once, making another combination, surely hitting both. Shazza used the plasma cannon again, brought up the virtual blade, while Matt was spinning his stick, activating a hurricane, and unleashed another dark blast, Strezz uses another Plasma Quake, and a lightning blast. The blade didn’t block Matt’s black hole. Shazza disappears in it. The lone ones were Strezz and Matt. They activated their combos again, but this time, by hand. Their combos collided and conducted another explosion, with both of them, touchdown on the ground. They both flew with their blades activated. Matt with two along with his hurricane stick, he was first and created another hurricane, Strezz was dodging while trying to strike Matt. Matt strikes him with his two blades, while the hurricane was closer. Strezz then did another Plasma Quake, making the hurricane calm. He then aimed for Matt and did his lightning blast. Just then, both of them headed for the ground again, and their radiation faded, leaving a normal Z-Storm and Dark Goliath.

“You’re tough,” said Strezz.

“It’s still not over,” Matt said, breathily

Then there came Round 3. Strezz started off with a regular lightning blast. Matt then used his dark blast. Matt was ready to use his stick, it formed a hurricane, but a light one; it was running out of power. Strezz then used his plasma cannon, and flew up, then was another blade counter fight. They kept blocking each other until Strezz manages to hit Matt, while he did the same. They were now motionless, until Matt was knocked out.

“I lost, you must be a fast learner,” said Matt. Shazza appeared back in the throne room and deactivated the fountain.

“And this means the last gem is ours!” Strezz said. Matt, Vandyke, Strezz, Shazza, and the others reached for it. Vandyke grabbed it unfortunately.

“God dang it,” said Bruce.

Vandyke laughed maniacally and said, “The last source to the Eternal Key is mine!” Vandyke took the Eternal Key and placed the gems. “Now I’m completely unstoppable!”

“Wait, why aren’t the discs exploding?” Shazza asked.

“I knew they were fake and explosive devices at first, so I gave you all real ones,” said Captain Tide.

“Then where’s the beeping coming from?” Strezz asked, still confused.

“Excellent story, in Vandyke’s pocket, anyways, RUN!” Captain Tide exclaimed.

The others did so, while Vandyke and the others evacuated as well. Vandyke threw out the discs, and caused the Sea Temple to collapse. We now see the castaways in the hut.

“So, we were in there for nothing?!” Zack exclaimed.

“I wouldn’t really say we were there for nothing, but now that Vandyke has the key, he could be totally implausible,” said Strezz.

“Don’t worry about it, things will a fine, normal, Z-Storm free day tomorrow,” said Monique. “At least I hope. And we’ll have some more chatting to do on that day, Cam.”

“I did that not just because of the key. It’s so that Vandyke wouldn’t slaughter you hard.” Cam replied.

“Sweet,” said Monique.

“Looks like we have some more visitors,” Zowe said, referring to Dallas and Marissa.

“We won’t let you down,” said Dallas.

“Whatever, good-night,” Zowe said. And so ends the three-parter.

6. Eternal Key(Part 3 of 3)

 

“Well, well, well, look who decided to interfere with our plans,” said Matt.

 

“No duh, we just want the freakin’ key and the last gem” said Strezz.

 

“And Professor Algae, how did you even get here before us?” Bruce asked. Prof. Algae gave a look.

 

“Well there are two options you guys may not even know, either Matt kidnapped me, or I’m just pondering, you all know I can’t just sit and do nothing, like a side-lines guy,” Prof. Algae replied.

 

“There’s a huge misunderstanding with this mission, one of them is that you’re all not allowed to be in here,” said Matt.

 

“We fight crime; that’s our job,” Monique pointed out.

 

“You’re all still missing the point, even if you all didn’t come here in the first place, the Eternal Key would be ours, and it IS in our possession!” Matt replied.

 

“Were you dropped on the head as a baby?” Zowe said.

 

”You know we have all four, and Professor Algae has them in safe keeping,” Captain Tide declared.

 

Matt then gave out a laugh, “I can assure that you were all mentally ill during this type of mission, you don’t have the gems; WE have the gems.”

 

“Don’t listen, you guys fight and be strong,” Prof. Algae said to the gang.

 

“Thank you for the encouragement, but I hardly believe anything you’re uttering,” said Cam. “You crashed your submarine, you were a V.I.P to the temple’s program, and you know Matt.”

 

“Something is wrong in this picture,” said Captain Tide.

 

”Indeed it is,” said Hector as he and Burden approached.

 

”Damn it, it’s that guy again,” said Zack.

 

“Yes it is me! If you’re all still confused, take a closer look,” Hector then activates the tracking device from Prof. Algae’s shirt, as it starts beeping.

 

”What’s going on?” Prof. Algae asked.

 

“You can’t hide anymore, that tracking device is a brand of Loud K. technology,” said Burden.

 

“Vandyke, that orb…what are you doing with our orb?” Hector asked. “You do realize that can blow up the temple…”

 

“And why would you keep something unstable as that?” Zowe said to Hector.

 

“It’s a powerful tool for Crimson Kill. May I mention that he’s connecting it to your discs?” Hector continued. Zowe, Marina, and Zack’s discs are shown beeping.

 

“We made it this far, Mr. Algae, now tell us what the hell’s going on!” Strezz said.

 

Professor Algae chuckled a little bit, and…”MUHAHAHAHAHAHA!” He laughed.

 

“I knew something’s wrong with this picture...first off, what gives you the frequency to send us here in the first place?” Monique replied.

 

“Gullible teenagers, you know how hard it is to get you all killed and retrieve the gems at the same time,” Prof. Algae said, revealing his dark side.

 

“What are you talking about, the fact that this was all a misunderstanding?” Strezz asked.

 

“Indeed. I used all of you to retrieve the gems and bring them back! I knew you were all going to make this far! In addition, I sent Warden, Adrianna, and Hector to try and kill you all.” Prof. Algae confessed.

 

“Then why is Hector so furious sounding, and why is Matt convincing us to leave?” Cam asked.

 

“Hector, he’s just too easy. Matt: he was exaggerating; he’s going to annihilate you all no matter what! The explanation of the discs and the orb, I took the orb and linked it to the discs. When they’re used, they will explode!” Prof. Algae continued.

 

”Then what are you doing with the orb…? Hector questioned.

 

“Hector. I just want a very dangerous tool from you. Proudly using it against these castaways,” he replied. “It may be valuable to you, but that orb isn’t in good control, which is why I replaced it before your fight.”

 

”Hmm, so that’s where Hector got some extra power…” Bruce thought.

 

“Besides, what’s this Vandyke nonsense?” said Monique.

 

Prof. Algae then tore off his “professor coat,” revealing his spiking hair, and black shirt. “Indeed I am Vandyke! Luckily, you’re all at a highly unstable fountain, I have all four gems, and when your discs are used, YOU’RE ALL GOING TO DIE HERE!”

 

“There’s some connection…why hate us?” Sal asked.

 

“Sal Motto, Nelson Tide, your lame ass Zech Tech company, I wanted revenge! It’s no wonder that submarine was branded by Zech Tech! I wanted revenge by showing off my most dedicated work, I was unappreciated. This all lead to my chance of being one of the leaders of the Loud K.!” Vandyke explained.

 

“Well, yours is all too dangerous, all this for revenge?!” Shazza said astonished.

 

“Hmm, I can explain more, but furthermore, I’ve known Matt long before,” Vandyke continued.

 

”I became one of the leaders after my urge to take revenge on you, Cameron!” Matt said. “You were an annoying brother; ever since you got me real jealous, I and Vandyke’s huge study on Z-Storm changed everything! You cannot beat us!”

 

“Please don’t tell me, that this organization was planned for revenge!” Cam replied.

 

”Surely, our founder Seymour formed it ever since his fall against Strezz Stormond’s greatest ancestors,” Matt explained. “We will explain more, unless you all can’t survive!”

 

Suddenly, Cam’s disc was had a magnetic pull to a nearby idol, it was partially Matt’s powers.

 

”The Fountain of Radiation: our greatest weapon, I’m going to let Matthew here demonstrate!” Vandyke exclaimed. Matt dipped into the fountain, revealing his stronger version of Dark Goliath.

 

“Cam’s brother is annoying enough, but you cut some slack, we did nothing to you!” Zack said to Vandyke.

 

“Something tells me you’re all the reason why we ended up here, right?” Strezz asked.

 

“Well, this is how: I sent Matt to make you win that contest, Hector, master of disguise perhaps, caused you all to end up in this beach, while yours truly decided to make Bruce look gullible with his map! While Seymour decided to kidnap some of your closest guests, such as Zowe,” Vandyke explained. “Seriously, I wonder what it stands for.”

 

*Video Journal*

 

Zowe: Zora Waneta Redpetals. Thanks for your patronage.

 

*End* 

 

“Whatever, how about we get this over with?” Bruce said.

 

“Hmm, Matt’s spare powers, I wonder if I can activate Z-Storm’s DNA with this,” Cam was thinking, while Matt and Vandyke is all blabbity blah, blah. “Storm Goliath DNA activate!” He said. Dark Goliath from Cam’s disc and Z-Storm were combined.

 

“I thought it only works via jacket,” said Strezz.

 

“Well, said nothing about no via disc,” said Cam.

 

“Cam, you’re beautiful image…” Monique said sounding shocked.

 

“Monique, this is for civilization as we know it,” Cam replied.

 

*Video Journal*

 

Monique: First Bruce, on Shazza, on Sal, on Strezz, on well…everybody, and highly predictable to put Cam in the party, I look like the lone wolf of anything that involves Z-Storm, blah, blah, blah, Zech Tech hurr durr. Sick of it!

 

*End*

 

The epic fight begins. (Skip it if you want) It starts with Cam using dark/lightning pistols (since missiles are jumping the shark), and it barely scratched Matt. Matt then used his handy dandy mega blast, causing a short term earthquake. Cam and Strezz used a dual laser blade while Matt used three. Matt’s powerful strength inflicted damage on Dark Goliath. Strezz then activated a powerful dark cannon blast to hit Matt. Matt crossed the beams, a powerful signal that is. Cam and Strezz sprung back in action and used a dark lightning burst combo, related to the pistol attack. Matt brought out his blade, while Cam and Strezz used theirs. Once again, it was a sword-counter fight, using them as defense over and over. Matt did a Matrix styled flip and brought out two. Strezz used the dark/lightning pistols again and the view was hazy like a smoke bomb going off. Strezz used his blade to attack Matt, while Matt flew to a clear surrounding. Matt brought out a machine gun and shot dark, miniature bullets at Strezz and Cam. Matt was then ready for another blade move and Cam decides to block, while Strezz then flew and used the dark cannon blast again. Just then, Matt smacked the deactivation button, preventing Storm Goliath from working anymore.

 

“We lost, Matt has some proficiency back there,” Strezz thought.

 

“His powers are doubled from that radiation, not even a single combination can overwhelm Matt,” said Cam. Strezz then had an idea.

 

“I got a plan,” Strezz then ran to the radiation fountain with his disc. “It may be unstable, but this is for the Eternal Key!” Strezz then dived into the fountain and gave out a loud scream. Z-Storm appeared with a bigger design. Armor flashed with blue and white. The letter z had a larger extent on the chest also.

 

“Levitas Lacus!” Sal said with surprise, “Alternate form of Z-Storm.”

 

“Alright mates, this is my fight,” said Shazza.

 

“Shazza…” said Cam.

 

“I have a disc, and I’m going to use it no matter what. I’ve also been in fights like these, and retrieving gems cannot be my only job in this turf,” Shazza replied.

 

“Good luck then,” said Marina.

 

The second round began (skip if you wanna). First, Shazza activated her Z-Storm attributes from her disc. Strezz/Levitas’ first move and introduced for his alternate form was called a Hydro Sphere, it attacked and inflicted damaged that was twice as strong as the original Z-Storm. Shazza activated a lightning blast and manages to hit Matt again, but lightly. Strezz then activate another one called the Plasma Quake, and hits Matt again. Matt then used a powerful darkness blast and hit both Strezz and Shazza. Shazza activated the plasma cannon, while Strezz used another Hydro Sphere. Part of the windows started to crack, pulling in some water. Matt used his blade again, while Strezz uses his blade, which is longer and somewhat sharper apparently. Another sword-counter fight has begun. Shazza then activated her virtual blade, and cause a short explosion. Strezz then used a lightning blast, twofold the power. Matt then used his Hurricane Stick, and directly damaged Strezz and Shazza. Strezz used his Plasma Quake again; water was flowing through the throne room. Matt brought out his blade while Strezz did the same. Strezz’s stamina caused more damage to Matt, while Shazza was brought to the air, and activated a lightning blast in the water, and Strezz uses his Plasma Quake once again to create an immensely strong combination on Matt. Matt used his hurricane stick again, to hit Strezz; Shazza dodged it though. Strezz flew and threw his blade from above, and Matt manages to block it. Strezz attempts another Hydro Sphere, while Shazza uses her plasma cannon again. Matt then started a new combination. He used his hurricane stick, used his powerful darkness beams, and created some kind of black hole. Strezz then used another Plasma Quake, and lightning blast to create a tsunami. Both attacks collided with another explosion. The three fighters were on the ground, and the flowing water disappeared. Strezz and Matt got up, and the windows were fixed. Matt unleashed his darkness blast, directly hitting Shazza. Shazza then used her virtual blade for her barrier. Strezz was now from behind and used his Hydro Sphere. While Matt was spinning his hurricane stick creating a strong wind. Strezz then did another Plasma Quake, making more intense wind. Matt was spinning until he did another Matrix flip and brought out his two blades. Matt strikes Strezz with his stick first, and got up in the air, using his blades, but Shazza blocks it. Strezz used his lightning blast again, while Shazza did hers from the disc, then was another blade counter fight as each of them used their blades. Matt manages to strike Strezz once more. Matt then used his dark blast and beams at once while Strezz used his Hydro Sphere, and lightning blast at once, making another combination, surely hitting both. Shazza used the plasma cannon again, brought up the virtual blade, while Matt was spinning his stick, activating a hurricane, and unleashed another dark blast, Strezz uses another Plasma Quake, and a lightning blast. The blade didn’t block Matt’s black hole. Shazza disappears in it. The lone ones were Strezz and Matt. They activated their combos again, but this time, by hand. Their combos collided and conducted another explosion, with both of them, touchdown on the ground. They both flew with their blades activated. Matt with two along with his hurricane stick, he was first and created another hurricane, Strezz was dodging while trying to strike Matt. Matt strikes him with his two blades, while the hurricane was closer. Strezz then did another Plasma Quake, making the hurricane calm. He then aimed for Matt and did his lightning blast. Just then, both of them headed for the ground again, and their radiation faded, leaving a normal Z-Storm and Dark Goliath.

 

“You’re tough,” said Strezz.

 

“It’s still not over,” Matt said, breathily

 

Then there came Round 3. Strezz started off with a regular lightning blast. Matt then used his dark blast. Matt was ready to use his stick, it formed a hurricane, but a light one; it was running out of power. Strezz then used his plasma cannon, and flew up, then was another blade counter fight. They kept blocking each other until Strezz manages to hit Matt, while he did the same. They were now motionless, until Matt was knocked out.

 

“I lost, you must be a fast learner,” said Matt. Shazza appeared back in the throne room and deactivated the fountain.

 

“And this means the last gem is ours!” Strezz said. Matt, Vandyke, Strezz, Shazza, and the others reached for it. Vandyke grabbed it unfortunately.

 

“God dang it,” said Bruce.

 

Vandyke laughed maniacally and said, “The last source to the Eternal Key is mine!” Vandyke took the Eternal Key and placed the gems. “Now I’m completely unstoppable!”

 

“Wait, why aren’t the discs exploding?” Shazza asked.

 

“I knew they were fake and explosive devices at first, so I gave you all real ones,” said Captain Tide.

 

“Then where’s the beeping coming from?” Strezz asked, still confused.

 

“Excellent story, in Vandyke’s pocket, anyways, RUN!” Captain Tide exclaimed.

 

The others did so, while Vandyke and the others evacuated as well. Vandyke threw out the discs, and caused the Sea Temple to collapse. We now see the castaways in the hut.

 

“So, we were in there for nothing?!” Zack exclaimed.

 

“Pretty much, and now that Vandyke has the key, he’s implausible,” said Strezz.

 

“Don’t worry about it, things will a fine, normal, Z-Storm free day tomorrow,” said Monique. “And we have a little chat by the same day, Cam.”

 

“I did that not just because of the key, it’s so that Vandyke wouldn’t slaughter your head,” Cam replied.

 

“Sweet,” said Monique.

 

“Looks like we have some more visitors,” Zowe said, referring to Dallas and Marissa.

 

“We won’t let you down,” said Dallas.

 

“Whatever, good-night,” Zowe said, and that ends the three-part Z-Storm episode.

[Steel Sponge]

7. Behind Enemy Lines

 

“What a wonderful day, just a ton more weeks of summer to go,” said Monique as morning came.

 

“I think we should now work on a way of getting off this ugly-ass place,” said Zack. “Yes, offense,” he said to Sal.

 

“Lighten up, so “they” invaded this island, what can get worse?” Bruce said.

 

“So far, being stuck with you, along with adventures I really do not need to take part on,” Zack replied.

 

After a turn of events, Zora/Zowe was outside.

 

“Hey there, um…Zowe,” Zack said when he approached her.

 

“What is it Zack? This better be good,” said Zowe.

 

“What do you mean? I mean, you’re the only good person here on this island,” Zack replied. “Not as long as you’re alone with Strezz, if not, then I like it.”

 

“What are you talking about, my near interactions with Strezz?” Zowe asked. “It’s like me, wondering how long you have been gaga over Marly.”

 

“Who’s she?” Zack said confused with Zowe’s script. “Anyways, there’s a truth, but first, you want to hang out for a while?”

 

“Like what, you love me? That’s the oldest type of honesty there is, and probably scarier when it’s Marina,” Zowe thought.

 

“You just won’t admit it.”

 

”Admit what, that I actually like you more than ever?” Zowe was still confused.

 

“I’ve been a friend with you for a long time, AND if you love me, kiss me!”

 

“Okay, fine!” 

 

”Fine!” After that, Zowe and Zack kissed. Zowe then got angry and tried to smack Zack’s face, but ended up breaking her fist.

 

“Okay, maybe we should hang out for another time, okay?” Zowe finished and walked away.

 

“Hey Zowe, maybe I can help with your sore arm,” said Dallas.

 

“Shut up Dallas!” Zowe replied.

 

*Video Journal*

 

Dallas: I’ve been love-struck. *appears with a case of tropical flowers* I hope she gets these.

 

*End*

 

Still outside, the scene is now at Monique and Cam.

 

“We still have some explaining Cam,” said Monique.

 

“I know, and besides, would you rather see the destruction before your eyes?” Cam replied.

 

“No, but I think Strezz should’ve handled himself,” said Monique.

 

“Come on, you’re worrying too much.”

 

“Maybe, but it’s you I worry the most, now help me clear my mind, before I reach Stage 3,” Monique replied.

 

The scene then goes to Strezz and Marina outside.

 

“Come on, it’s just a little nature walk,” Marina said.

 

”It’s fine, unless things get scary,” Strezz replied. “It’s scary when it’s between Zowe and Zack.”

 

“You’re looking at Miss Dependable,” Marina replied.

 

“Okay, as long as nothing bad really happens.” Suddenly, Strezz felt a smooth surface and fell into a pit. “Okay, that was out of nowhere.”

 

“Are you okay down there?” Marina asked.

 

”Of course I am, but there’s no way out,” he answered.

 

The scene goes to the rest of the castaways in the hut.

 

“Okay, I think we have some bad news, I have a broken fist, and Strezz is gone to…somewhere I don’t know,” said Zowe.

 

“So now what, there’s nothing to do,” said Bruce.

 

“That’s good because I’m here, and there are no rules,” said Zowe. “Hmm…maybe one detail can be given, and that is, there’s only one rule.”

 

“If it involves disabilities of discussing Hand K. knowledge, then that would be good,” said Monique.

 

Meanwhile, we see Strezz in the center of the pit he fell beneath.

 

“Oh man, where am I?” He thought.

 

“Welcome, Strezz Stormond, we’re with the Hand K. agency,” said someone from anonymous.

 

“Okay, I see where this is going, but why am I here?” Strezz asked.

 

“I think I heard about you going in that temple to get the Eternal Key,” one of the members said.

 

“Yes, and that freaking Vandyke got hold of the gems, and now I can’t stop him, and how is being in a huge pit helping?” Strezz replied.

 

“Well, kind of spied on them a bit, and brought one gem back,” said the member.

 

“Who are you guys?” Strezz questioned again.

 

“We’re with the special Detectives Agency,” one person said and revealed himself. “We consist of three; I am Lance, Mark, and Devon.”

 

“Okay then Lance, if you’re from a special Detectives Agency, why do you work for Hand K.?” Strezz questioned.

 

“Well, we have badges, and we formed part of it,” Lance answered.

 

“Now I don’t know where this is going. I also have some friends trapped in this island…” said Strezz.

 

“Come on, you can become part of our dual agency, and have this cool badge,” Devin then hands him a badge. “Want to practice your natural abilities with us?” He continued.

 

“Well, I might as well give it a shot,” Strezz replied.

 

Meanwhile, the scene goes back to the other castaways in Sal’s hut.

 

“Okay guys, I have an idea that will totally allow you guys to understand each others’ feelings,” said Zowe.

 

“Okay, like what?” Bruce asked.

 

“I’m going to divide this hut in half! Chick’s side over here, guys side over there!” Zowe said as she drew in a line, “Any questions?”

 

“You girls have the bathroom, and can I use it? I need to piss,” said Dallas.

 

“Piss in this!” Zowe then handed Dallas a solid gray bucket.

 

“Well, you’re lucky we guys have the kitchen, and air conditioning,” said Bruce. “While you all have the exit, which means you all have to do the work for us!”

 

“You do realize that with the exit, none of you are leaving this spot, you’re looking at a Hand K. free palace!” Zowe reminded.

 

“But Zowe, what about the disc-“ Monique said, but got interrupted.

 

“Okay, now that’s plain Loud K. talk,” said Zowe.

 

The scene then goes to the guy’s side of the hut.

 

“I cannot believe I’m going to say this but, Zowe has gone out of control!” Zack said, “and if she’s going to open some free palace, I’d rather let me in, but no!”

 

“Hakuna Matata,” Bruce replied. “In a matter of time, Strezz will come, and we will be butterflies flying freely in a vast, beautiful wonderland.”

 

“Well, make sure it’s manly,” said Dallas.

 

We now see Strezz and the dual detectives in their Hand K. training, doing most of their common moves as such.

 

“I think I’m starting to ease up a little,” said Strezz, “But I always win, like…without confidence.”

 

“Well Vandyke is your real problem, and we faced him a ton of times, and it wasn’t pretty,” said Mark.

 

“Matt and Vandyke are my real problems, but I kind of managed to beat Matt,” Strezz continued. 

 

“You’ve beaten Matt? He’s like one of the roughnecks of Loud K, almost beating Vandyke,” Devon said with surprise.

 

“Of course, not sure if it’s a big deal, but it’s going to take some explanation,” said Strezz. “And I kind of known Cam to have a relation to that guy,” he added.

 

The scene then goes to the girls’ side of Sal’s hut.

 

“Okay girls, who wants to do party games?” Zowe suggested, most of them said yes. “Let’s get started with truth or dare, Marissa you’re first.”

 

“I’ll go with truth,” said Marissa.

 

“Um…let’s see, if you were gay, and still on this island, who would you marry?” Zowe asked.

 

“Somewhat a disturbing question, but if I have to choose one, it’s got to be Marina,” Marissa responded.

 

“Now Marina, truth or dare?” Zowe asked.

 

“Truth please,” said Marina.

 

“Okay, if you had a choice between Zack and Dallas, who would be your beau?” Zowe questioned.

 

“To be honest, I’d least suspect both of them, but Dallas has got me my choice,” said Marina. “Do you think I can take over, Zowe?”

 

“Why not, pick anyone.”

 

“Okay Marissa, truth or dare?” Marina asked her.

 

“I’ll pick dare this time,” Marissa responded.

 

“Go near the guys’ side, I dare you to kiss Cam,” said Marina. Some of the players busted out laughing.

 

“I’ll accept that, and I dare...Shazza, I dare her to kiss Sal,” said Marissa.

 

“You wouldn’t, right mate?” Shazza thought. “I guess I’m going to dare Monique to kiss Bruce!”

 

“What?!” Monique said with absolute shock, and then thought for a moment. “Sounds like the plan, and I might as well dare Zowe to kiss Zack!”

 

“Now you guys are going near the deep end!” Zowe said, “And why not dare Marina to kiss her precious boyfriend Dallas?” She suggested. The rest then laughed.

 

*Video Journal*

 

Marina: I hope Strezz doesn’t hear of this at all.

 

*End*

 

The scene is back at the guys’ side again.

 

“Strezz will save us, Strezz will save us, Strezz will save us,” Sal prayed.

 

“Well, it can’t get any worse,” said Cam.

 

Just then, the chicks cheek-kissed the suspects: Dallas, Cam, Bruce, Sal, and Zack.

 

“Okay, we need to get out of here!” Bruce said.

 

“Not as long as we have an exit, Captain Obvious!” Zack replied.

 

“Oh my goodness, where’s a Stormond when we need one?” Bruce thought.

 

The scene is back to Strezz and the detectives.

 

“And that’s the story, kind of. Alright, I think it has been four hours, and I think I should get back to my friends, before they wreck the place,” said Strezz.

 

“No Strezz Stormond, don’t leave us…you haven’t gotten the official Hand K. badge,” said Lance and gave it to him.

 

“Alright, now how do I climb back up from this pit?” Strezz questioned.

 

“There’s a ladder,” Mark said, pointing to a sign, meaning there’s a nearby ladder.

 

“And before you go, here’s a little something,” Lance then handed Strezz a miniature key, “this thing takes control of your Z-Storm activation hard drive, it may not be the Eternal Key, but one day you will get it.”

 

“Thanks so much,” Strezz replied.

 

“You know where to call,” said Lance.

 

The scene was now at the guys’ side of the hut, and they saw Marina walking by.

 

“Marina, unexpected to see you here,” said Dallas.

 

“Yeah, I’m not sure if I’m more like the other girls, but I’m just here for a like a few minutes of comfort,” Marina replied, and then saw Zack with a crowbar. “What are you doing?”

 

“Trying to open this window, you all know the drill!” Zack exclaimed.

 

“The windows are bulletproof, why do you think it rains here all the time, and I always want them shut?” Sal said.

 

“What kind of hut do you have?” Zack said, with offense.

 

*Video Journal*

 

Zack: Thanks to Zowe, I have no paradise. I still like though.

 

*End*

 

“Marina, what are you doing in that side?” Zowe wondered.

 

“Not really what you think Zowe,” said Marina.

 

“Just so there won’t be a sudden cry for your precious Z-Storm’s help...” Zowe then appeared with a short ax. “I just have to do this, I really do!” Zowe was about to chop until Strezz arrived back at the hut.

 

“Great, I knew you would all mess up!” Strezz said, not amused.

 

By the time he arrived, Marina and the other guys screamed with excitement, while all except Zack hugged him.

 

“Take that Zowe!” Bruce said.

 

“Hmm…it has been a few minutes, and I was about to share some red velvet pie,” said Zowe.

 

“What are you saying?” Sal asked Zowe.

 

“Oh, I was testing you guys, and it worked for me,” Zowe said. Some of the guys were angry, but got over it for a moment.

 

“I’ve met some members of Hand K. and I’m guessing we’ll probably be seeing him, from below,” said Strezz.

 

“Here comes the blabber,” Monique thought to herself.

 

“Well, the blabber’s coming, but tomorrow, now let’s have some rest,” Strezz suggested.

8. Playing With Lightning

 

“No, this day cannot be happening right now!” Monique said referring to a calendar.

 

“What day, you have to tell me first,” said Cam.

 

“It’s the Summer Solstice, the longest day ever, and since I’m here, my day is ruined,” said Monique.

 

“It’s not bad Monique, we have to live with it anyways,” Cam replied.

 

*Video Journal*

 

Monique: What can possibly be worse than reaching Stage 2 of my depression, the whole series pretty much explains all.

 

*End*

 

The scene goes to Seymour and the rest of his army.

 

“Even though young Shazza knows otherwise, we need a trick, known to the Loud K. and Hand K. technology, that Strezz won’t even know,” said Seymour.

 

“Cards, its all cards to be counted on here,” said Hector with a book of one.

 

“Hector, I know it’s a pleasure to have you here, but…that’s fantastic,” Seymour replied.

 

“Gee, thanks.” Hector replied carelessly.

 

“Seymour, I have terrible news,” said Vandyke. “One gem to our unstoppable power is missing.”

 

“Indeed, the seaweeds have it,” Seymour thought, “It won’t take long everyone, so good-bye,” Seymour then left the lair.

 

“Those people are animals,” complemented Strezz.

 

“No shit, they’ve probably been homesick for a long time,” said Shazza.

 

“There’s no telling what’s going to happen next,” Strezz replied. After that, Seymour appeared on the beachfloor.

 

“I’m here for the gem,” said Seymour.

 

“That’s good, I don’t need it anymore,” Strezz replied.

 

“What are you thinking? I’m taking a bet on what Vandyke is planning you know,” Shazza said to Strezz.

 

“What choice do I have?”

 

“I want a rematch Strezz, winner takes the gem,” Seymour betted.

 

“Now this is a deal mate,” said Shazza. “But hey, Strezz here is going to win for sure!”

 

“Whatever, give me all you got…make it sunset,” Seymour replied and went back to his lair.

 

*Video Journal*

 

Strezz: It’s seriously hard to deal with....like 10 people here, and half of them hate me, and I believe they don’t listen to me at all anymore.

 

*End*

 

“What are you doing, Zowe?” Monique asked.

 

“I was bored, and I decided to set up a game, called capture that flag,” Zowe answered.

 

“And I want to go home, and this doesn’t solve anything for most of what I know!” Monique replied.

 

“Me too, and we start after one of us gets the flag at the finish line: Captain Tide’s submarine!” Zowe replied.

 

“What are you two talking about?” Shazza questioned when she walked by.

 

“Oh good, you’re here for the game,” said Monique.

 

“And it involves the flag being in the submarine? That would be dangerous mates,” said Shazza.

 

“We don’t care; Team Zowe and Monique hi-ho!” Zowe replied.

 

*Video Journal*

 

Shazza: That Zowe person, I really do not understand her, what now?

 

*End*

 

”Anyways, I have to teach Strezz about card-type duel standards,” said Shazza.

 

“You go ahead,” said Monique.

 

The scene switches to Strezz and Shazza’s card play practice.

 

“Now, I just realized, the Eternal Key is not the only item to control Z-Storm, I just found a bunch of cards in Sal’s hut,” said Shazza. “Now, these cards can do that job too.”

 

“Glad you remember,” said Strezz.

 

Card 1.A actives you in Z-Storm form. This capsule provides the magic to do it,” Shazza lectured. “Card 49.Q gives out the plasma blast, Card 12.F is lightning beam, Card 50.B activates something different, and it brings out an energy card. Lastly, Card 68.E is a surprise.”

 

“That’s a bunch, thanks anyways,” said Strezz.

 

The scene then goes to Zowe and Monique’s game.

 

“Now then, we got our teams ready, flag set on that submarine, and…I guess that’s it,” said Zowe.

 

The teams for Zowe were herself, Bruce, Shazza, Zack, and Dallas. For Monique, it was herself, Cam, Marina, Marissa, and Sal.

 

“So, how do you we play?” Dallas questioned.

 

“You try to capture the flag, you tag someone to prevent that person from getting it, once you got it, victory is yours, and…there’s no prize,” Zowe explained. She then tagged Marissa. “Count to 20 that way.”

 

The teams were set while Marissa started counting to 20. Bruce then tagged Sal while he got tagged by Monique. Marissa was back in the game and tagged Zowe. The untagged people were in the beachfloor now, and Bruce and Sal were back in the game. Bruce then tagged Zack, while Marissa gets tagged again. Zowe is back, and Bruce is tagged again, while Monique still continues and tags Dallas. The untagged teammates were 6 yards away from the goal; Marissa, Bruce, and Dallas were back, and Zowe tags everyone in Monique’s team, except for Marina. After that, Marina tags Zowe. So far, Bruce, Marissa, Marina, and Zack were close to the goal, and moments later, Zowe and the rest were back. Zowe tags Marina after that. Everyone got on the submarine, Bruce closed the lid, and Zowe grabs the flag.

 

“I got it! We won!” Zowe exclaimed.

 

“Excellent, but is the lid closed?” Shazza wondered.

 

“Of course it is, now let’s get out!” Zowe said. 

 

Unfortunately, something blocked their way: a huge crate.

 

“I knew this sounded like a good idea,” said Seymour noted to be responsible for the crate.

 

“This sounds like bad news, but I did it,” said Bruce.

 

“You idiot!” Zowe exclaimed.

 

“How was I supposed to know something that weights thousands of pounds can block this submarine?” Bruce replied.

 

“Don’t panic, Marina was it! And she’ll come save us eventually!” Zowe noted.

 

It didn’t look like she was coming back unfortunately. Marina left to see Strezz, by the time sunset came by, along with Seymour.

 

“You ready? I hope not,” said Seymour.

 

”What’s going on?” Marina questioned.

 

“It’s just a rematch with Seymour, he told me it’s only valid with cards,” Strezz said to Marina.

 

Strezz then examined the cards.

 

“Let’s see…capsule ready! Stand by for Card 1.A!” Strezz called out, and he was in Z-Storm mode.

 

The rematch has begun. Seymour became Dark Light via card as well. Strezz used one of his cards to bring out his lightning blast and hits. Seymour used his card bring out his blade and hits Strezz. The next card for Strezz was the plasma blast, and did the same as the lightning blast. It was Seymour’s turn again and unleashed something Strezz never noticed: a throwing sword attack. Luckily, Strezz uses his energy card…card, while Seymour flew up and used his same attack, succeeding to hit Strezz this time. Strezz then used his blade card to attack Seymour, but Seymour activated his energy card apparently. Seymour flew from the card and attack Strezz from behind with his blade. Strezz flew up and used his plasma cannon card again and hits. Seymour did the same, but uses a tsunami card to inflict more, and it did. Strezz got up and decided to unleash his card, and it was magnificent, but it unfortunately required 80 percent rain power. Strezz decides to use his lightning attack card again, while Seymour used his blade card again, Strezz did the same, along with another laser blade evasion related attack. Seymour then did the tsunami type card again, while Strezz uses his energy card this time. Strezz flew from the ground another time, and notices he needs 20 percent more rain power while he uses his plasma cannon again.

 

“Excellent moves, but I’m still not surprised,” said Seymour and unleashed something called Card 74.Y: “Card 74.Y, Sinister Sleep!”

 

With that, Z-Storm shut off.

 

“Oh, he’s good,” Strezz thought.

 

The scene goes back to the trapped castaways, in the submarine, including Captain Tide.

 

“We have to get out of here! The submarine still works right?” Zowe said to Captain Tide.

 

“Sure,” he answered.

 

Zowe then got hold of the sub controls, but unfortunately…the submarine was nearly out of gas. After 19 seconds, the gauge was completely empty.

 

“It is official; my Summer Solstice is ruined, all thanks to Bruce!” Monique said, upset.

 

“Sure, but still…” said Bruce.

 

“God, what’s keeping Marina here?” Sal thought.

 

“No idea, but now I really want to go home! It’s all Bruce’s freaking fault that we’re stuck in this damn vehicle, I just rather die here,” said Zack.

 

“Why couldn’t I do anything right?” Bruce thought, and kicked part of the submarine. He then noticed the oxygen gauge. “Just our luck, we have 39 minutes of oxygen left in this submarine!”

 

“Someone turn this thing around!” Monique exclaimed.

 

“I would if the crate hasn’t been decreasing our density level, and if we had enough gas for this,” said Captain Tide.

 

“I have an uncle who is a marine biologist,” said Marissa.

 

If your uncle knows how to work subs, then good for you,” said Zowe, sarcastically.

 

“Don’t worry Bruce, you haven’t done anything wrong, and other than Sal, you’re kind of attraction,” said Shazza.

 

“What’s that suppose to mean? Prove it anyways!” Bruce replied.

 

With that, Shazza and Bruce had a two second smooch.

 

“Whatever, but I’m still waiting for whoever’s going to rescue us,” said Bruce.

 

“You know what guys, we’re all stupid mates! And I specifically did say this would be dangerous, so let’s resolve!” Shazza said to the castaways.

 

“Sure, once we get out,” said Zack.

 

The scene then goes back to the rematch.

 

“Come on, get back into ignition!” Strezz prayed. After a moment, Z-Storm was back in action. Strezz also noticed he had enough required rain power and unleashed his card. “Card 68.E, Great Summon!” He called out. With a bang of flashing yellow hallucination blast, Seymour was knocked out from the ring, and un-activated Dark Light.

 

“Hmm…I was expecting for a moment of triumph to arrive inside me,” said Seymour. “But you sadly won anyways, damn kids,” he then went back inside the lair.

 

“Strezz that was amazing!” Marina said.

 

“Of course, but not too much of a deal,” Strezz replied.

 

“And I just remembered, I was it, and I can’t just seem to find the other teammates, but I had the feeling Zowe got the flag already,” Marina continued.

 

“What flag?” Strezz wondered.

 

The scene is back to the castaways, still stuck inside the submarine.

 

“Bruce, I blame you for messing up my Summer Solstice, still!” Monique said.

 

I get it, the blame is on me that I closed that thing, but I agree with Shazza that we’re all acting stupid,” Bruce replied.

 

*Video Journal*

 

Bruce: Just here to say I’m praying for hope to take course.

 

*End*

 

“And oh look, we have five minutes until our last dying breaths,” said Zack.

 

After that, Strezz was seen fixing the submarine up to the surface, removed the crate, and left it on the beachfloor.

 

“We’re saved!” Monique said happily, and the rest got out.

 

“After this, I’m going to have to find a way to keep you guys in control,” said Strezz.

 

“Blame Bruce for this happening at this time,” said Zowe.

 

”But weren’t you the one that decided to play that game in the first place?” Strezz thought.

 

Suddenly, a ship arrived in the ocean floor, and was near the beachfloor of Shellside.

 

“Even better, we’re definitely saved!” Monique said, just seeing that boat in that distance.

 

“Saved? That storm is still strong and nasty and we’re on lookout for goodness sake, said the captain.

 

“My luck has arrived!” Bruce said and came onto the ship with his salvages.

 

“Bruce, what are you doing?!” Strezz said curiously.

 

“Hey, if you guys wanted to have enough of me, this is the wish you’ll all be getting…for a little while,” Bruce answered, “Bon voyage Shazza, and everyone else!”

 

With that, the ship left with Bruce.

 

“Touching…who needs him anyway?” Zack said and left the scene.

 

“Alright then, I’m just ready for that routine again,” said Strezz. “I’ll miss Bruce anyways, and I just hope I can control these guys…”

TRIVIA/NOTES:

New Attacks: Z-Storm: Great Summon(via card)
Bruce leaves for a group of pirates in this episode.

[Steel Sponge]

9. Great, More Castaways

 

The episode starts with Spongebob, Patrick, Squidward, Sandy, Mr. Krabs, Farley, and Leon.

 

“This is going good folks, we’re going to that resort in no time,” said Spongebob manning the ship.

 

“Time is money,” said Mr. Krabs.

 

“Anyways, is there any food?” Patrick questioned.

 

“In the cooler,” said Leon.

 

“Those are two of your nephews, huh,” said Squidward.

 

“They’re wonderful, aren’t they?” Spongebob replied. Spongebob then saw a fog coming by.

 

“Okay, who turned off the sun?” Squidward said.

 

“It’s a fog everyone, hold on,” Spongebob notified.

 

After that, a storm approached, and a few hours later, they survived and reached land on Shellside Shores.

 

“Ugh, where are we?” Sandy wondered.

 

“A deserted island, what does it look like?” Squidward said.

 

“So, we’re stuck here? No, no, no, no! How will we live, how will we have for food, water, everything?!” Spongebob said, panicking. 

 

“You’re the genius here, boy!” Mr. Krabs said.

 

“In retrospect, Farley and Leon are,” Spongebob replied.

 

“We will find what we need, one of you guys look for shelter,” Sandy suggested. “While those two will fix the boat,” she said referring to Farley and Leon.

 

The scene is now at Cam’s surveillance room.

 

“Why so early, I even hate saying that word,” Zack wondered.

 

“I’ve managed to get stuff imported from your hometowns to here,” Cam said.

 

”This better be good, and also, any good reason why you dragged us here?” Zowe questioned.

 

“All those have to do with you,” Cam said, referring to Zowe, Zack, and Strezz. Cam then played the first one.

 

“This is a breaking news report, a prisoner by the name of Zack Rebelondo, who has been released by a girl from the unknown. Most of what we know, she is said to be a student at-“The news clip was vaguely interrupted by Zowe.

 

“Ugh, I hate the news!” Zowe exclaimed. “What else do you have?”

 

*Video Journal*

 

Gil: Let’s see…I just got a video camera last week, and I noticed the big disappearance of Zowe, so I just want to say…I really miss you. I know you were leaving for Seaside Shores, but-

 

(The video was turned off)

 

*End*

 

“Guys, I’d tell you,” said Zowe. “In other words, I wonder what’s with that much noise from outside,” she then left the room.

 

“Now listen to this one,” Cam then turned on a clip from The Gossip, starring Robert and Eric.

 

“Strezz, Bruce, and Monique: disappeared from Seaside Shores!” Robert announced.

 

“They were going there, but by a surprising twist, choppers have reported they have been stranded in an abandoned beach,” Eric said. “Here’s what his cousin Ben has to say.”

 

“I’ve seen the news media report this, and I’m surprised,” said Ben. The rest of the conversation was cut off by Strezz.

 

“Shut up, Ben!” Strezz said and turned it off. “I’m almost on thin ice when people notice I’m Z-Storm!”

 

“Maybe it’s because of the lack of laundry,” Cam said and laughed. Zack did the same.

 

”Zack, you know that’s not funny!” Strezz said.

 

“I know; I was thinking a funny joke about Cam,” Zack replied.

 

The scene then goes to Sal’s hut with Monique, irritated with the noise from outside.

 

“Keep it down, you’re starting to sound like Farley and Leon,” she said referring to the noise the two were making, while fixing their boat. She was now outside.

 

“Wow…you two look like Farley and Leon, you smell like Farley and Leon,” said Monique.

 

“I’ve never expected you here,” Farley said.

 

“Hi Monique,” Leon said.

 

“You sound like Farley and Leon!” Monique said with little amazement. “I have one favor for you guys…shut up, I’m trying to sleep!” She exclaimed.

 

“Excuse us, we’re stranded here too, and we’re trying to fix this boat,” Farley replied.

 

“How is that even possible? Those clouds are impassable!”

 

“We’re fixing our force shield too,” Leon said.

 

“I’ve been stranded here for weeks, with…10 other people!” Monique exclaimed.

 

“Unfortunately, this boat can only hold 7,” Farley reminded.

 

“Ugh, I’ll be inside the hut,” Monique finished, and left.

 

“We can’t find a shelter,” Sandy said.

 

“Thank you, Sherlock Holmes,” Squidward said sarcastically.

 

Zowe then came in and saw Spongebob, Patrick, Squidward, Sandy, and Mr. Krabs.

 

“Listen up, we have enough people here and I’ll conclude by saying, if you want a place to sleep, there’s the ground!” Zowe instructed.

 

“Gosh, who made you queen of the beach?” Squidward said.

 

“No one, because there’s barely anybody here, and I called dibs for it!” Zowe replied.

 

“What are you doing here anyways?” Patrick asked.

 

“Let’s see, I was pushed off a plane with Cam, Marina, and Zack, stayed here for weeks with like 7 other people in a hut, and you guys came in,” Zowe explained.

 

“We’re going to look for shelter,” said Spongebob. The group then left.

 

”On the way, dont bother coming in the hut in that jungle over there,” Zowe reminded.

 

The scene goes to two hours later while Spongebob and co. found a hut.

 

”Finally, and it’s pretty convenient too,” Spongebob said about the hut. They stepped inside.

 

“You guys new here?” Cam said from an air vent.

 

“Yes, who are you anyways?” Sandy asked.

 

“It is clear that I’m nowhere to be heard of or seen at this moment,” Cam then went back inside the vent.

 

“I wonder who mans this place,” said Spongebob.

 

“Hey mates, where did you come from?” Shazza questioned as she entered.

 

“There was a terrible storm that smashed our ship,” Spongebob explained.

 

“That’s a bummer, I’m not sure taking care of 13 people can solve our problems,” said Shazza.

 

“So there are 10 other people here other than you?” Sandy asked.

 

“Minus Bruce, just feel cozy in here,” Shazza said, and then left.

 

After a few minutes, Zack, Marina, Dallas, and Marissa came in.

 

“May I help you?” Squidward asked them.

 

“No,” Zack answered, and went on his bunk.

 

“Don’t mind him, he can be tense sometimes,” Dallas said to Spongebob and co.

 

”Shut up Dallas,” Zack said.

 

“Like that,” Dallas finished.

 

“So, can we stay here until our boat is fixed?” Spongebob asked.

 

“Absolutely not; and besides, the storm is tense, I’m appalled for seeing more people here, and my chances of bailing this island are going down,” Zack replied.

 

Monique then came inside.

 

“I can’t believe it, Strezz’s brothers are on this island too, and-“Monique cut herself off when she saw Spongebob, Patrick, Squidward, Sandy, and Mr. Krabs. “Wow, just what I wanted, MORE PEOPLE!” She said sarcastically.

 

“Monique, you’re here to?” Spongebob questioned.

 

“She knows this loser?” Zack said.

 

“Me, Strezz, and Bruce too, and we just have to get a bunch more: Zowe, Cam (a good one), Marina, Zack, Dallas, Marissa, and Shazza along with Sal!” Monique explained, “Oh, and Captain Tide.”

 

Strezz was next to step inside.

 

“I want an explanation for…15 people in Sal’s hut,” said Strezz, “and Farley and Leon outside,” he added.

 

“We we’re on a boat, and crash!” Squidward said imitating a crash.

 

“Well, its nice seeing you here Strezz,” said Spongebob, “Haven’t seen you in years.”

 

“I didn’t know you had an uncle Strezz,” said Marina.

 

“It’s not a big deal anyways,” Strezz replied.

 

“So, now we’re family? I wouldn’t be for a sponge, a random starfish, an underwater talking chipmunk, and a money hogging crab,” said Zack.

 

“I have to admit Strezz. You changed a lot, and now you have a jacket?” Spongebob said.

 

“Yeah, it’s some kind of raindrop slave as usual,” Strezz said lying about the jacket’s function.

 

“And has incredible powers,” said Shazza when she came back.

 

“Well, whatever this thing is, I’m going to test it,” said Spongebob, and grabbed the jacket.

 

Strezz then looked at the clouds forming rain. “Hey guys, look,” he said to everyone except, Spongebob, Patrick, Squidward, Sandy, and Mr. Krabs.

 

“Spongebob, no!” The original castaways said, except Zack.

 

Just then, Z-Storm was activated. With Spongebob inside it, “Wow, since when can it do that?” Spongebob questioned.

 

“It does that…”all the time,” mate,” Shazza replied.

 

“Why didn’t anybody tell me that this jacket folds into a metallic, controllable superhero?” Spongebob asked again.

 

“Because Strezz intended not to tell anybody,” Cam answered. “Who knows how long we’ll be in here.”

 

“Hey guys” said Hector when he came in. “I want another challenge today.”

 

“Who’s that guy?” Patrick said.

 

“Some annoying servant of Seymour,” Zack replied.

 

“Let’s get this over with,” Hector said.

 

“What are you, in a rush for a candy store?” Zack said sarcastically.

 

“So, what is this thing, and how does it work?” Spongebob said referring to Z-Storm.

 

“I don’t want to be the one answering questions here, but,” Strezz then started explaining. “You’re in a lightning rod, rain powered, Hand K. mobile shell, and that guy is a Crimson Kill possessing agent of Loud K.: the bad guys.”

 

“That explains everything, but still…” Spongebob wondered.

 

“There’s a manual,” said Shazza.

 

“Got it,” Spongebob said.

 

The fight then began. Spongebob activated the lightning blast, and hits Hector. Hector then uses his double laser beam, and Z-Storm was on the ground. Spongebob then tries the lightning blade while Hector uses the blood fist attack, both got hit. Spongebob got up again and tried the plasma cannon, which missed. Hector’s (famous) missile attack activates, all of them manage to hit Spongebob. Spongebob uses his lightning blade again while Hector does his blood fist; Hector is not hit this time. Spongebob does the lightning blast again, and hits Hector, while he hits him with his crimson missiles. Spongebob then gets out his blade again, making Hector fall to the ground. Hector flew with missiles at that time, unsteadying Spongebob’s fly time. Spongebob then uses the plasma cannon again, while Hector had enough power to activate his crimson blast, giving Spongebob an intense blow. Spongebob unfortunately lost.

 

“He lost…” Cam said almost speechless.

 

*Video Journal*

 

Zack: What a noob, but it was bound to happen, and of course, I’m still not amazed to see the experience of Strezz’s uncle. That’s how he lost in my theory.

 

*End*

 

“Well, I tried my best,” said Spongebob.

 

“Whatever, but at least I won,” Hector said. “And you’re Strezzs uncle, right?”

 

“I apparently am,” Spongebob replied.

 

“I’ll be in the headquarters, I suggest studying those natural abilities of yours,” Hector said. He turned away and left.

 

“Is he going to give me any money?” Mr. Krabs questioned.

 

“Now I want to get out of this place,” Squidward said.

 

”For me, more than you do,” Zowe replied.

 

“Hey guys, the boat’s done. What did we miss?” Farley said.

 

“Everything in mankind I saw with my own eyes, it was amazing,” Spongebob replied. “I just realized Strezz is-“Strezz then cuts him off.

 

“When amazing things happen, keep your mouth shut, spoilers can be involved sometimes,” said Strezz. Spongebob then gives Strezz back the jacket.

 

“Too bad that boat only holds 7 people,” said Squidward.

 

After that, they all got on the boat, with the force shield on.

 

“And just one more question: where’s Bruce?” Spongebob asked.

 

“80 yards away from you on that pirate ship, I have no idea what’s doing,” Monique replied.

 

After a few moments, Spongebob and co. left the island.

 

“No, what are you doing? Take me with you! Wait, take us with you!” Zowe exclaimed.

 

“I’m so sorry, Zowe. You’ll have a chance when the next one comes,” Zack said sarcastically.

 

“Well, it’s dark out, we better get inside,” Captain Tide said.

 

“Why does Sal make us do this?” Zowe complained.

 

Strezz and co. were now at the hut.

 

“Anymore attempts on getting off this island?” Strezz wondered.

 

“Well, I got a book on more Z-Storm related technology we can find,” said Shazza. “There’s rumors that around here contains the Emerald of Thermal Energy.”

 

“Let’s do that tomorrow, we have an emerald to find,” Strezz said.

 

The scene then goes to Loud K. headquarters.

 

“So do us,” said Seymour.

 

“How long do we have to keep following them?” Hector said.

 

“It’s a matter of our plan to possess eternal power once and for all, you know,” Seymour replied.

------------------------------------------
NOTES/TRIVIA:

[Steel Sponge]

It's about time I've made another new episode for Z-Storm. Just some side-notes, before it starts, the first part of the pop-up edition is removed, for more thoughts and constructing, and the credits will be gone, since I'm thinking about real actors for the cast(which will be somewhat hard IMO)

 

10. Tourist Attraction

 

“Strezz, wake up!” Shazza exclaimed.

 

”Come on, five more minutes!” Strezz said and looked at Shazza. “What is it?” 

 

“Those people from Loud K. already located the emerald,” said Shazza.

 

“What?” Strezz said with disbelief, “Just right now?!”

 

After all that confusion, everybody else was outside.

 

“Could we just leave that freaking organization alone for once? It’s just an emerald, and if you ask me, Vandyke would only top that type of situation,” said Zowe.

 

“Imprudently, we don’t know who’s hunting it down, I just remember seeing a shadow the time I woke up,” said Shazza.

 

“I guess you did a good job spreading the news here,” said Monique sarcastically.

 

”And I seem to be thinking right now…could it be Bruce that knows, mates?” Shazza continued.

 

“You mean the guy who always messes up?” Monique questioned.

 

“WHAT WOULD YOU THINK BRUCE WOULD DO?!” Shazza exclaimed, unintentionally. “…Sorry, it’s just that I always see that Bruce would know the next move.”

 

“He knows the next approach? Another question please, how would he know?” Dallas questioned.

 

“I installed a tracking device one time, and I left Bruce with it, the second day I met the first few, but he took all his things with him…” said Shazza.

 

“That’s it? You’re just expressing how gullible we are now, since we have no tracking device, since Bruce took it? I don’t know, but you’re just making Bruce sound more useful, and you gave it a shot, now what?” Monique asked again. 

 

“The emerald is not that hard to find right now, so we have work to do,” Shazza finished.

 

“Save it, what’s the big deal?” Zowe said carelessly.

 

“That everybody’s listening to you now, and you seem to be another nail in your popularity coffin,” said Strezz.

 

“And I can’t believe I survived that more than once when I divided the hut one time,” said Zowe.

 

“And we’re going to help you prevent that when you’re coming with us,” Strezz added. “And don’t fret, it’s like a quick trip, and nothing is going to expand that.”

 

That was until a group of tourists suddenly arrived at their location, the moment they noticed a camera flash.

 

“This is it everybody, Shellside Shores,” one of them said.

 

”Tourists, how did they even get here?” Strezz said confused.

 

“And that means they know TOO!” Monique said. “Hey guys, can I reason with you all for a moment…” suddenly, the tourists ignored Monique. “Hey, we’re a useless abandoned group here! Why won’t they listen?

 

“Of course they’re tourists, the most complex bunch to deal with,” said Zack.

 

“Oh you’re just saying that,” Cam thought.

 

“It’s me, not you,” said Zack.

 

“Well, this is a spirit breaker, we found a group of tourist who give no damn about anything, it would probably won’t take one day to make them understand,” said Zowe.

 

“Does this mean we have to build more beds?” Dallas questioned.

 

“And maybe “Ace Electric” would have to convince them to stay away from that ship,” Zack said, referring to Strezz.

 

“Oh crap,” Strezz said, and halted the tourists in front of Seymour’s headquarters.

 

“We extremely don’t know each other, but beyond this limit, is indeed off-limits because…” Strezz was then interrupted when Vandyke came with a freeze gun, freezing 2/3 of the tourists into ice, and not Strezz, as due to dodging it.

 

“Everybody thinks this is some kind of public domain, hell with this situation,” said Vandyke, and went back inside the HQ.

 

“Okay, make that two days of understanding,” said Zowe, referring to the frozen tourists.

 

*Video Journal*

 

Strezz: Sure, nobody listens to me from point on, I wasn’t really that surprised. Still, Zowe’s on my nerves, she’s barely gives anybody respects, and I’d probably blame her for Bruce’s depart. Sure I want to get off the island as badly as everybody else, but…

 

*End*

 

“Now what, we suddenly ran into tourist, and they’re now frozen, this is probably some kind of trap,” said Strezz.

 

“We were planning on finding that emerald, and besides, there’s four tourists left, they’re going into that jungle,” said Shazza.

 

*Video Journal*

 

Monique: Hmm…I don’t know what to say today, but I’d be lucky if I can go home, even though the tourists would doubtfully know why they were in Shellside Shores.

 

*End*

 

“Hey, you four, any reason why you ended up here?” Strezz questioned.

 

“You’re talking about us, we’re just here to compliment all the horrible sights in the ocean,” said one of the tourists.

 

“Horrible you say?! It truly is, considering that we could be stuck here for eternity’s calling, but that does that make us horrible? I don’t think so,” said Monique.

 

“One more important thing, how in the hell did you guys end up here, really?” Zowe questioned.

 

“We don’t know, but it involved a ship, and some guy who admitted he was from some kind of marine reserve,” one of the tourists answered.

 

“It’s definitely Vandyke,” Strezz thought. “Anyways, I honestly don’t think you four and the rest could stay here, because 10 are already enough, plus Sal and Captain Tide…but unfortunately, the strong clouds just seem to shove through.”

 

“Oh and why should we believe you and your group?” One of the tourists asked.

 

“Look at this…Z-Storm’s authentic jacket, I have it, and I’m nobler than I look,” said Strezz.

 

“Okay then, I doesn’t believe anybody was into those comics, kid. Uh…we’ll probably see you later,” he continued, and left along with the others.

 

*Video Journal*

 

Monique: Everyday is always like this…

 

*End*

 

“Oh well, time to get that emerald,” said Strezz.

 

After many hours of searching, the emerald they’re searching for is technically not in sight.

 

“What a rip, and we don’t even know where we are now, it’s just like we’ve come across the middle of nowhere, I’m going to bed,” said Monique.

 

“And take a three hour walk back?” Shazza said, making a point.

 

“I’m just going to say I’m interested, because Cam is here,” said Monique.

 

“Oh Monique, you can’t always rely on me, well…unless I actually find the location of the emerald,” Cam said, and then stepped on a soft piece of wood, forming a trapdoor, with everybody sliding to the underground premises.

 

“Is this an underground fortress?” Cam thought.

 

”Thanks Cam, for finding the location of the emerald,” said Monique.

 

“What’s that supposed to mean? We can’t really freaking tell if we found it,” said Cam.

 

“No, really, I can see the emerald right now,” said Monique, pointing to it in the distance.

 

“And what do you know…we got a free sample,” said Zowe, she was going to touch it until Vandyke and Seymour showed up.

 

“Highly sophisticated agents first, douchebags,” said Vandyke, and took the emerald. “The emerald, the Eternal Key, now ALL MINE!”

 

“Why do you hate us so? Seymour is of course the leader, and you’re just the bad guy over jealousy, and power,” said Strezz.

 

”Well, I shouldn’t be surprised that you all don’t know this but…it’s my power, when he’s done,” said Seymour.

 

“Yeah, I’m just here for the stuff Zowe began bribing me for,” said Zack.

 

”Zowe bribed you?” Strezz questioned and went back on the main subject. “So, were those tourists some part of your plan, or some kind of joke?” He said to Vandyke.

 

“Those tourists were just bitching about that place, so I had to take him there, it’s just business,” Vandyke replied.

 

“Well, thanks for attempting to make us suffer more,” Zack said hastily.

 

“That’s not important now, you’re all still stuck, and we never give up from a fight,” said Seymour.

 

”Whatever, I’d still win anyways!” Strezz said with confidence.

 

“Not me…Vandyke!” Seymour replied. “So…winner gets emerald, and the pathetic loser does not.”

 

“This should be easy anyways, because you’re just a talentless goof, chosen over the whole connection you were being discussed about,” Vandyke added.

 

“Alright then,” said Strezz, seconds later, it started raining, and Z-Storm was activated.

 

The battle between Strezz and Vandyke began. From Vandyke’s agile standards, he went first, and started out with a golden blast, effectively hitting Strezz.

 

“What the hell was that?!” Strezz said surprised.

 

“It’s my original blast, but with upgrades from my Eternal Key,” said Vandyke.

 

”Come on Strezz, I’m rooting for you!” Marina said.

 

The battle continued, Strezz started out with a lightning blast, Vandyke dodged it. Vandyke then introduced another power, a chrome-like aurora attack, it hit Strezz. Strezz then brought out his blade, along with Vandyke; it was golden and far larger. They were sword fighting, until Strezz’s was dropped, and hit by Vandyke’s. Strezz then flew up, and used his plasma cannon, hitting Vandyke a bit. Vandyke then spun around introducing another attack called “Disaster Rush,” hitting Strezz effectively, he didn’t give up. Strezz then used his lightning blast, hitting Vandyke again. It was Vandyke’s turn again, and he uses his powerful golden blast again, but misses. Strezz uses his blade again, while Vandyke uses his same attack, which was blocked again, but by Strezz’s blade. Strezz uses his attack and hits critically. Vandyke then releases another move; he activates a strange void, and paralyzes few of Strezz’s controls. Strezz tries another lightning blast again, but misses, while Vandyke then puts the emerald to use. His glowing was a mixture of yellow and orange; he was more agile and stronger from before. Vandyke attacks again, with another golden blast. Strezz is still paralyzed, but is still trying his attacks; he uses his plasma cannon, but just hits Vandyke by a pinch. Vandyke uses his disaster rush, critically hitting Strezz. Moments later, Strezz’s paralysis disappeared, and he was back. He brings out his blade again, along with Vandyke, they hit each, and Strezz’s damage was greater than Vandyke’s. Strezz then uses his lightning blast again, hitting Vandyke a little bit. Vandyke then finished it off with another disaster rush. Strezz was defeated.

 

“Damn, I lost…I knew your power was too much Vandyke, and I don’t know how to imagine your next move,” said Strezz.

 

“Because I know a lot about this technology, the Eternal Key and the emerald just makes me a great powerhouse,” said Vandyke. “Though, there’s a gem to the Eternal Key that is missing…”

 

“So I guess the emerald’s unfortunately yours, and what about us? How are I and the group going to get out of this spot?” Strezz questioned.

 

“Z-Storm can fly, Strezz,” Cam noted.

 

After a quick trip back to their place, it was nighttime, and the tourists (except four) were still frozen, until Strezz uses his blade to cut the ice. Z-Storm was inactivated after that.

 

“What happened?” One of the tourists asked.

 

“Nothing really, just a really hard day,” said Strezz. “I don’t know what to do with you guys.”

 

That was until they were suddenly being teleported back to where they were, Vandyke appeared for a small notice. “They weren’t worth it, and we weren’t intending to make you suffer more,” he said, and then left.

 

Strezz and co. then appeared back at the hut.

 

“Vandyke is just too powerful now, we just need a lot more advantage,” said Strezz.

 

”Yeah seriously, all there’s missing is some more coordination,” said Zack, jokingly.

 

“Hmm…sure, but I’m still concerned about Bruce,” said Shazza.

 

“Don’t worry, we’ll figure out things tomorrow,” said Monique.

“So Shazza, now what are we going to do now that Vandyke has the emerald?” Strezz questioned.

 

“Well, it’s not a big deal right now, there’s another powerful gem around here, but we have to make sure nobody knows,” said Shazza.

 

“Okay then Shazza, it’s not like I’m going to use a piece of rock to destroy all reefs,” said Zack.

 

“Since we still haven’t thought of a way to go back home and going on a mission is pretty damn tiring, how about we do nothing for today?” Zowe suggested.

 

“I have to admit, she’s right. But it won’t be considered as doing literally nothing, like grabbing a magazine, and releasing your tensions,” said Monique and saw the cover of the magazine, “Hey, that girl looks like Shazza.”

 

“Really, when did a look-a-like of me turn about?” Shazza asked.

 

”I don’t know, but still, she’s so familiar,” said Cam.

 

Shazza is the only one to know that the cover girl is actually her; she just kept on hiding the truth and said, “I don’t think it’s a good time to gossip right now.”

 

“What are you talking about, I mean, what harm could be done from a magazine cover?” Cam responded.

 

“Well, I’m just going to catch some waves with my surfboard, and let Shazza mind her business,” said Strezz, and went outside.

 

“As much as I don’t know why there’s another Shazza, I don’t know why Monique is carrying that magazine,” said Dallas, “the cover says she’s famous for her type of dance routines.”

 

“Hmm…it may not be a secret anymore, but why am I worrying about this?” Shazza said to herself, and left without a notice from the others.

 

“So, what’s everybody’s opinion on wakeboards? They kind of remind me of surfboards,” said Cam, changing the subject.

 

The next scene shows Strezz on his surfboard. He was having a good time with the waves, and then he noticed the ship Bruce went on, along with another mysterious one.

 

“Hmm…Bruce, I wish he would come back,” Strezz thought and saw the other ship, “That symbol…could that be Seymour’s naval ship?”

 

He then paddled out, and peaked at it again, but in a concealed way.

 

“I should tell Shazza,” Strezz said to himself, and went back inside Sal’s hut, but he noticed that Shazza was nowhere to be seen.

 

“Oh hi Strezz, how was surfing?” Marina said.

 

“Shazza’s not here, isn’t she?” Strezz said, “Hopefully we couldn’t have lost her and things would turn out worse.”

 

“She must have been frantic since we showed her that magazine, kind of ridiculous,” said Zack.

 

“In other news, in front of the ship Bruce went on…I suspect it part of Loud K.,” said Strezz, “Right now, if we knew where Shazza left off to, our mission won’t last a long time.”

 

“The only places in this island, besides this hut and that huge surrounding ocean, would be the jungle and Seymour’s headquarters,” said Cam.

 

“Hmm…considering the fact that Seymour and his crew are overseas, why would Shazza wander around there?” Strezz thought to himself, “We check his HQ first, before he manages to notice us.”

 

“I can’t believe you have the common sense to do that,” said Zack, “I’m in, for once.”

 

Strezz and co. went back outside and entered Loud K. headquarters.

 

*Video Journal*

 

Zack: So I counted myself in, I do that all the time when I’m trying to escape juvenile detention.

 

*End*

 

“Take a look; we don’t care about this place, Shazza, Bruce, or even you!” Monique said.

 

Strezz was surprised that she no longer has interest with himself at that point, “What do we all care about? I’m trying my best to keep you all out of harm’s way, and we can’t get out of here without those two.”

 

“Hey, I think I found Shazza,” said Cam pointing to her in front of a monitor.

 

Strezz and co. looked from behind to see what Shazza is doing. Shazza pressed numerous keys and suddenly gets transported out of the room digitally.

 

“I think we’re saved, but why would Shazza do something like that?” Strezz wondered.

 

“I guess we have to leave now, considering that none of us memorized her combination,” said Dallas.

 

“We don’t have to remember it to retrieve Shazza back, the monitor has the list of locations for wherever she went,” said Strezz. “I do remember seeing the words “Abandoned Paradise Shopping Center” on the screen, so I say we go there.”

 

Strezz typed it in, and gained access to it, but it was different from Shazza’s access. A white blinding light appears, suddenly making Strezz and co. disappear.

 

The scene goes to Bruce on the ship.

 

“It’s been tough sitting around here for three days, is that what you think Bruce?” The captain asked.

 

“Yeah, but what’s the point? We’re not going to escape because the area is blocked by a strong storm,” said Bruce, “but at least we had food.”

 

“Aye, I’m not afraid of the storm, together we can defeat it,” said the captain.

 

“I guess so, Captain...Jetsam,” Bruce replied.

 

“I’m a dangerous captain, thus my ship is state of the art, and not one strong ship can stop me,” said Captain Jetsam. 

 

“Well, I’m starting to recognize Loud K.’s ship coming this way,” said Bruce, “I still read the comics.”

 

“Hector, we have approached another vessel, and it seems that Z-Storm’s friend Bruce is over there,” said Seymour.

 

“So are we going to destroy stuff, like we always do?” Hector questioned.

 

“Of course, and it’s time we try and exterminate Jetsam,” Seymour added, and turned the ship around, close to the other. 

 

“You know, I’m going to be honest, I thought being on this ship was a bad idea, and sooner or later, my friends would need me,” Bruce said to the captain.

 

“Yeah, that’s very persuasive for you, but what’s important now is that Seymour’s ship is on the port bow,” Captain Jetsam said.

 

The captain wasn’t afraid, but he didn’t know Seymour has a back-up: his Dark Light form. Captain Jetsam gets knocked overboard from Seymour, making Bruce nervous.

 

The next scene shows Strezz and co. in a different location.

 

“Where are we?” Marissa said.

 

“Hmm…I’m amazed that the “Abandoned Paradise Shopping Center” has a fine quantity of people here,” said Strezz, “and now all we have to is find Shazza.”

 

“Wait, if this place is in a different location, then we must be safe! All we have to do is get out of here!” Zowe said.

 

“Nobody can get out of the Abandoned Paradise Shopping Center, miss,” said the receptionist.

 

“Have you seen…um…an Australian?” Strezz asked.

 

“Judging that last voice, she was probably going on that stage over there,” said the receptionist.

 

“By the fact that it’s a reunion special, the girl on the cover looked like her, keeping the thing a secret, that girl is definitely Shazza!” Monique said.

 

“But wait, if she said nobody’s going to get out of here, does this mean we’re stuck here too? We need to find a way out!” Zowe said.

 

“We’ll talk that out later, so stop complaining,” said Strezz, “So we just have to watch the show, I guess, but what if Shazza recognizes us?”

 

“She won’t recognize us if she pretends we’re not even here, if we’re wearing those cool black shades, and if doesn’t see us if we sit at that table over there,” said Zack.

 

The show then began, showing off Shazza’s dance routine, she didn’t notice Strezz and co., fortunately. By the time it was over, Strezz and the others had that o_0 look on their faces.

 

“She’s a famous dancer, and I don’t know why she’s going to relive with it,” said Monique.

 

“And that kind of means that Shazza totally raped her mind, we’re out of here,” said Zack.

 

“Three…two…one,” Dallas said, predicting Strezz’s next cue.

 

“Shazza, it’s us!” Strezz said going inside the curtains. He found Shazza looking to a mirror; Strezz took off the mask to reveal Shazza.

 

Not what I planned…but I strongly know that you’re going to ask me a ton of questions,” said Shazza.

 

“Why the hell are you here? Why are you doing “this”? Did you have a long history concerning your performances? I don’t know if I have anymore, but I’m highly curious,” Strezz said.

 

“I’m here, because I was lucky that Seymour’s nowhere to be seen, I was indeed famous for dancing before becoming Z-Storm…and I’m doing this because…I’m kind of trapped inside my thoughts,” Shazza explained.

 

“So reunion’s over, are you going to come back with us?” Strezz asked again.

 

”I’m not coming back Strezz,” Shazza answered.

 

“Are you serious?! We can’t lose you too, what about our team?”

 

“What about the safety from destruction?”

 

Strezz was too shocked to hear anymore, but went on and said, “The safety from destruction happens to be almost everywhere we go! Sure I’m Z-Storm, but it’s still not going to be the same without you, especially! Oh and how do I get out of this place?”

 

“I last saw the transportation device in the basement,” said Shazza.

 

Strezz somewhat storms off, and calmly convinces the others on how to get back to their main place, as Shazza thinks about what she’ll do.

 

The scene goes back to Bruce’s scenario with Seymour and the others.

 

“Ugh, I’m in deep trouble now,” Bruce thought, “But I guess that Captain Jetsam guy is no big deal anymore.”

 

For a short time, we see Jetsam’s hand rise from the ocean water, as Seymour and the others plan their next attack on the ship.

 

“What should we do with that Bruce guy?” Hector said.

 

“We just wait until he decides to give up,” said Seymour.

 

Bruce was nervous behind the steering wheel. “I messed up, and now I’m going to fix that, this is for my friends!” Bruce exclaimed, and then crashed into Seymour’s ship.

 

“I say we go after some bigger fish,” Vandyke suggested, referring to Strezz (non-appearance wise) and the others.

 

“Hmm…indeed, they probably won’t stand a chance again, this calls for a mutiny, off shore,” said Seymour, so he and the other Loud K. agents evacuated from their ship, leaving Bruce alone.

 

“Run off Seymour, because somebody is bound to return,” said Bruce.

 

The next scene goes to Strezz and co. in Sal’s hut.

 

“It’s true Sal, Shazza totally rejected our group!” Strezz said.

 

“Aw man, whatever she’s doing, I wish her good luck, and she will be missed,” said Sal.

 

*Video Journal*

 

Zowe: For sure, Strezz is going to go ahead and say it was all my fault, which isn’t, but I think Strezz can blame me for long as he wants, that’s how life goes.

 

*End*

 

“Now we have to be more careful, now that we don’t have Shazza anymore,” said Strezz.

 

Suddenly, Shazza came inside the hut with a little hello. Sal, Strezz, and a few others hugged her, upon seeing her.

 

“So you have reconsidered Shazza?” Strezz said, smiling a bit.

 

“As of right now, as bearer of bad news, Seymour and his group is coming for us!” Shazza said.

NOTES/TRIVIA:

You can tell this was a fliler, judging the fact that Strezz didn't become Z-Storm at any point.
