IM NOT GOING TO JAIL AGAIN!

Lucks: Actually sir, no one goes to jail. We are here to help you after all. My name is Lucks, & we're here to know more about yourselves & your abilities...

Zel: I think we should get out of here. RIGHT NOW!

Belle: Please blond one, listen to Lucks. We're not here to hurt you. (Notices Lo stutter a bit) Ughh...

Lucks: That's for getting you all OUT of the game. & it worked, did it not?

Lo: Guys, it seems nice & all, but lets bail, ok?

Theo: Bye final boss! We'll be back to kill you later! ;)

(There about to head off when a few TasCorp guards blocked Tari & Theo. Another few then popped in when Lo's arm puts blasted them off)

Zel: WOW. Is that a new feature?

Lo: Dunno!

(The two then hid into a nearby streaming hub dubbed The Hive across the street)

Lo: Whew. That was close. (Notices someone coming out of the cubicle) Hmm?

???: Okay. Imma just- (sees the two) WOAH! Who are you two?

Zel: Excuse me, but I'm Zel & thats my roomie Lo.

Lamar: Well, I'm Lamar & I'm from a squad named MD-5.

Lo: What's your motive?

~later~

Lamar: Yo, what's going on?

Lo: Uh oh. Looks like Belle has gotten to our friend.

Lamar: Im'ma head out. Come to the side of this building for a pickup, ok?

Zel: See you at 5!

Belle: No one's gonna be able to hear you. These pods all have sound cancelling tech instal- (gets double hit by his coconut & a coffee cup)

Lo/Theo: BULLSEYE!

Belle: GODDAMMIT, LITLE RUNTS! GET THEM!

Lo: Run?

Zel: YUS!

(Belle then splits up for Tari)

(The guards then came into an empty room with Elder Tomato on the chair when Theo air strikes them)

Zel: NOW, LO!

(Lo then pulse blasted the two guards)

Theo: WOW! You shoot pulses from your hands? SIIIIIICK!

Lo: I know right!

(Belle: How did 2 men lose a child & a couple?! FIND THEM!)

Theo: Yeesh. She really ships you two.

Lamar: Please shut up.

Theo: Who are you?

Lo: Theo, this is Lamar, now get in the car.

Theo: Whatever you say, dude!

Zel: Is that a body pillow?

Lamar: Huh? Yeah, that's Nova chan. She's chill.

Lo: You remind me of Boopkins.

Lamar: Who's Boopkins?

Theo: I like her.

*the car proceeds to ram to the TASCORP van carrying Tari*

Tari: Lo?

Lo: COME WITH US IF YOU WANT TO LIVE!

Lucks: Stop those runts!

(They proceed to head off on their dust)

Zel: (notices Lo munching on chips) Where did you get that?

Lamar: Wear those jumper hoodies.

Tari: Why?

Lamar: I saw you back at the arena. They put on a tracker chip on your arm. He likes to keep tabs on his "opportunities".

Lo: Whew! That's more sick than my old one.

*the epic car chase follows*

Lo: I HOPE YOU LIKE 7 MONTHS OF UNWASHED GLORY! (Tosses the old jacket to Belle, losing her in the process)

Zel: DUDE! You didn't wash your hoodie in 7 months?!

Lo: I masked it in fragrance spray! Does it count?!

Theo: Oh dinner, I'm starving.

Tari: I don't think we're here for food, Theo...

Zel: Please calm down. This is the MD-5's HQ

Tari: What's MD-5?

Lo: you'll see. (Lamar then opens a door to the gang's hub) Hi Sofia. Masa.

Sofia: (notices Theo) OMG YOU'RE FINALLY HERE! (Fanboys over the coconut boy while the other stuff is going on)

Masa: Lamar, who are those people? & why does he know our names?

Lamar: Relax, dude. This is Tari, Theo, Lo & Zel. They're here to join our "club"

Masa: Sofia, check if these two are *MD-5 material*. I'll deal with the blue cyber-chick.

Sofia: On it!

Zel: Woah! What do you mean?

Sofia: Follow me. *starts up a familiar console & game* Wanna play Smash?

Lo: OH YEAH!

~later~

Sofia: Whew! I had never seen a perfect battle tandem until now!

Zel: Just as we are... the best of the-

(Lo then notices Theo struggling right now)

Theo: I feel tingly.

Sofia: This... this could be because he's been out of this game for too long.

Masa: We need to get him back into an Ultra Jump Mania cartridge. NOW!

Theo: Tari... I'm scared.

Tari: Don't worry Theo. We'll fix this.

Lo: I hope we will return to our world soon.

Theo: Wait what?
