Juniper and Danny landed in clean superhero poses, ready for action. The area they found themselves in was a circular gladiator arena. The outer bounds were rivers of lava and the center was taken up by Unos’ mech.
23Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡfkdgXUK8Ta
It was a large stationary saucer with 8 legs stuck in the ground. Thanks to that, there was little room to maneuver. The heat wasn’t helping things either. Good thing there are only two of them.
23Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡthGvBADUVC
Unos: “Welcome. It seems I get to defeat the strongest of your group. A perfect testing before besting XJ9.”
23Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡnIbfNIRiCy
Juniper: “Hold it buster! I need some answers first.”
23Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡRJJb5m7e3j
Unos: “Of course, masterpiece.”
23Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡYBAsUzd5v1
Juniper: “Why are you calling me that?”
23Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡz8HBvKKpAv
Unos smiles before answering.
23Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡ3qf9uqXrpn
Unos: “Because you, Juniper Lee, aren’t the real you.”
23Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡ3PZGu4iyFn
Both June’s and Danny’s eyes widen as they recall different things.
23Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡzPyQamUToJ
June remembers the time she was cloned, and the idea that she may be the clone makes her shiver.
23Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡ0MB8S0pYGf
Danny remembers the Jimmy robot and how he said he was the prototype. He looks at June and wonders if she is the finished product.
23Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡsanzicDvcZ
Juniper: “W-What do you mean?”
23Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡ1wR5flYMxS
Unos: “Magic is a very interesting concept. I thought if we could harness it, maybe it could give us an advantage against XJ9. So we lured the real you and captured her. Then I tasked Tres with making you. You would be our ticket to victory.”
23Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡ4Ane9W0TOm
Juniper: “But I remember you capturing me! More than that, I remember my life! I can even eat! Robots don’t eat!”
23Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡqwTSoArvi0
Unos: “Yes, Tres seemed determined to create a perfect robot replica first. I’ll admit, aside from what’s inside, you are truly perfect. If our plans weren’t ruined, I would have ordered him to wipe your memory so we could build more. The perfect army.”
23Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡSY95VQNHwM
June started to shake uncontrollably while her fist tightened beyond the norm. Before long, she erupted with a battle cry and charged Unos.
23Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡcp5ZRRT5f2
Danny: “June, wait!”
23Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡRUuvM6YY9L
Fist raised ready to end this joke, June wasn’t prepared for several turrets to pop out of the mech and fire. Before June was hit, Danny came in and flew her out of there. Floating high above the arena, June glared at Unos.
23Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡsZHmKHf1pT
Juniper: “He’s lying! You don’t believe him, do you?”
23Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡUOQa0tY8IM
Danny: “Doesn’t matter; we still have to take him down. To do that, we need a plan.”
23Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡ9BaXB5RVF6
Juniper: “Drop me on the saucer and give me five minutes.”
23Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡSq7jsKyxeK
Danny: “I don’t think that’s a good idea.”
23Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡp6mTVEHt2m
Not giving them any time to think, Unos unleashed a barrage of blaster bolts.
23Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡDxrzKgNpk9
Danny: “Whoa!”
23Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡk4PvmGO1sa
The ghost boy flew around the room, barely dodging the assault.
23Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡQ6FvWjgBet
Danny: “Fine, let’s go with your plan. Ready?”
23Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡGl6pehteFT
Juniper: “Ready.”
23Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡQQ4LRZ34b4
Danny turned them intangible and charged through the blaster fire. When he was close, he threw June at one of the turrets. Prepared, June destroyed it with a punch and dashed toward Unos.
23Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡiNP8opGRTN
Before the turrets could turn to June, Danny blasted them with his ghost ray. Free to move, an enraged June punched the glass shell covering Unos.
23Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡ0w2GzAKLnd
But instead of breaking, it sparked with an electric field.
23Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡyhqpREqqLQ
June: “GAAAH!”
23Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡ3wzXf3G8NG
Danny: “June!”
23Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡIJWsiKiVIY
Danny flew into the fray and removed June from the shock treatment.
23Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡqmHLC2STQ3
Juniper: “Ugh… that stung.”
23Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡKbeEu0m56U
Back in the air, he held her in a princess carry and observed the situation. It wasn’t looking good.
23Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡdmF1fAoACP
Danny: “Okay, maybe we should have brought backup.”
23Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡplSMrwAd21
Unos: “Hahaha! Do you see now, Juniper?”
23Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡV0E4DVzTna
Juniper: “What do you mean?”
23Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡCsWGXKA8Ok
Unos: “Why, look at your knuckles.”
23Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡo5fahdfoV8
She did so and instantly regretted it. Instead of normal bruises, there was torn skin and steel underneath.
23Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡK0QMubmsHh
Juniper: “No, no, no, no, this can’t be happening.”
23Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡcR6aYBUutz
Unos: “It is. To prove my point, behold!”
23Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡfTHmXXo0K7
Out of one of the walls, a chamber is uncovered. What’s revealed is a pod filled with orange liquid, and suspended within was the real Juniper Lee.
23Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡCDX60r8X1T
Juniper: “No way… I’m… fake?”
23Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡmTI0doo7y7
Unos: “Yes, and now that you know, what will you do? Join me, and then I’ll destroy the original. We won’t make anymore and won’t wipe your memories. You’ll be the one and only, Juniper Lee.”
23Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡQzmqEIGuTL
Juniper: “I-”
23Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡVQediW4RXI
Danny: “Juniper, listen to me!”
23Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡBgj5b2Mc82
Juniper: “Huh?”
23Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡjJMW82zGMw
Danny: “It doesn’t matter if you’re the real June or not. You’re still our friend and still a hero. We can figure this out together after kicking this guy’s butt. Don’t take that deal. He’s probably lying to you anyway.”
23Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡ3l3eAuOM94
June thought about it and looked at the real her. She was tempted, really tempted. The implications for her and her family are overwhelming.
23Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡ6Csp2QPt76
But joining this guy won’t solve anything. Especially since this is all his fault!
23Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡKqZklc26eu
Juniper: “No deal! Until the other June is here, I’m the Te Xuan ze and it’s my job to kick the sorry butt of little freaks like you! So get ready, Unos; I’m turning you into a zero!”
23Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡu5VwJJm0xk
Unos: “Eeh, I tried.”
23Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡOcA2rmYKiT
And so the dance continued, Danny dodging the blaster fire while looking for a way to beat the mech. Maybe those legs are vulnerable.
23Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡfRerJ3qFSi
Danny: “Go for the legs!”
23Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡiwcIFnm6TP
Juniper: “Good idea.”
23Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡVMcSJsWrxF
Danny flies under the mech and throws June at one leg while he goes for another. Almost at the same time, they destroyed the legs.
23Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡEnqZzmLTfb
Juniper: “Yeah!”
23Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡU7ZDMjbbUa
Unos: “Nice try!”
23Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡfib7y8Bpsr
The legs they just destroyed were replaced quickly after.
23Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡCY1bUltKWs
Danny: “You got to be kidding me.”
23Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡJjAekhOfla
Turrets appeared under the saucer but were blasted to bits before they could fire.
23Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡgDETYgzUMC
Juniper: “Plan C?”
23Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡAScYWBiN4p
Danny: “Maybe, hang on.”
23Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡ4TNKKfiKv3
Danny goes intangible and flies up. Planning to snatch Unos right out of the mech, Danny phases through the machine. But the spider saw this coming and electrified the whole mech. Unable to phase back without getting shocked, Danny kept flying until he was in the air.
23Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡawU6YERphP
Danny: “Well, that didn’t work. But you can’t keep that forever.”
23Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡumCezX9eQ5
He says just as the electrified field lowers. Danny goes to try again but stops when the field comes up again.
23Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡIh1jICPHrh
June: “GAAH!”
23Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡIAgkMN3sTj
Danny: “On no!”
23Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡM40s8Fa8HI
Danny goes around and removes June from the shocking field again. Instead of going into the sky again, he laid her on the ground.
23Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡNltpzTQgiB
June: “Ugh, again!?”
23Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡYmt46w6Pr4
Unos: “I can’t keep the field up forever, but I can turn it on anytime I want. I’m connected to the energy that powers the ship. I can do this for days, can you?”
23Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡ5RonZiexd4
He doesn’t wait for their answer; he unleashes more turrets to fire on their location. Danny flies away while June jumps away. The two twirled and twisted under the saucer, taking any chance to destroy a turret or leg.
23Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡk427JOHkSS
But they were never-ending, and they don’t have infinite stamina.
23Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡK0zXXzrC9n
Juniper: “What do we do!?”
23Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡJewusHpQ0N
Danny: “If we had some extra help, then maybe I could…”
23Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡSiHEnBaz4h
That’s when he remembered that there was someone else here.
23Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡqiPvxXuZkU
Danny: “Hold on, June. I have an idea.”
23Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡXdsliKoVDp
Juniper: “Hurry!”
23Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡ69XHU8Ayfy
Danny flies away and approaches where the other June is.
23Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡD11dvYB2ra
Unos: “Are you sure you want to do that? Instead of helping you, she’s more likely to turn on her fake. You’ll be fighting me alone; can you handle that?”
23Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡlcjxh7jThQ
Danny: “If the other June is anything like the June I know, then we’ll be fine.”
23Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡQBMntCRDJG
Unos: “Tch.”
23Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡyiGvwdUF1s
Unos tries to close the chamber where June is in, but that won’t stop a ghost. Danny phases through the wall and blasts the pod where Juniper is in. He makes sure to catch her before she falls on her face.
23Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡOLXrQr4hKh
Danny: “I gotcha you.”
23Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡ3Q0WBsjJ9Q
Juniper: “Ugh… what? Where… am I?”
23Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡYzMHxlBxUJ
He lets her go so she can stand on her own. Seeing Juniper now, he has to say that there is little to no difference. He can sense more energy in this June, though.
23Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡeHn1qTcvSR
Danny: “We don’t have a lot of time, June.”
23Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡ4Epg0rxtVj
Juniper: “Huh? Who are you?”
23Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡgBx3jXNdgL
Danny: “Danny Phantom and I need your help defeating the guy that captured you.”
23Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡOIwp4yMkoO
Juniper: “Captured? Oh, yeah! Some jokers named Evil Toy Co. I can’t believe I got captured! Well… I guess it’s not the first time.”
23Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡJQU8KNxMTB
Danny: “So you’re willing to help?”
23Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡ5n3MeQ08SU
Juniper: “Of course, where are they? Let me at them!”
23Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡzzbJhWGyYB
Danny: “Behind me, but you might see something that… might confuse you. I can explain everything after, right now; we have to take down the spider guy.”
23Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡz4HFGzBTLJ
Juniper: “Relax pal, I’m the Te Xuan Ze, I’m used to weird.”
23Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡS1FUQV2YyZ
23Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡeKEGyksLfF
The June outside was getting tired and increasingly frustrated.
23Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡZvbNkzdBzE
Juniper: “Come out and fight like a man! Or… a spider. Or an alien. Whatever you are, just get out of that mech!”
23Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡE6ONukdGf2
Unos: “No thanks, my people aren’t built for such savagery.”
23Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡWHrgt9iBBK
Juniper: “You want savage?! I’ll give you savage!”
23Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡkmOzi32NxS
She jumped and kicked out another leg. But before another could come in and replace it, June caught it.
23Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡRQhtiZMB91
Unos: “What are you-”
23Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡ7BTZdeoER2
Using more strength than she usually does, June forced the leg to drop into the lava. June quickly backflipped as the saucer tilted awkwardly.
23Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡhCLd47b74x
Juniper: “How do you like that?”
23Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡK9vcNGbFh2
Unos: “Grrr, enough to electrify the whole room.”
23Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡuyljetcChL
Danny: “I don’t think so.”
23Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡzC7NxUrUtV
Danny appears floating above the mech. When they were distracted, the ghost boy dropped off the other Juniper and got into position. Where’s the other Juniper?
23Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡRZi9QYM7mD
She drops from the sky right next to her other self.
23Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡhYM2qzOfTe
Juniper 2: “What the-”
23Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡ6Dup0Xw7j2
Juniper 1: “Explain later, fight now!”
23Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡl9jb8YYR8P
Juniper 2: “R-Right, man this is weird.”
23Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡI4MTR7HzBd
Danny: “Get back and cover your ears!”
23Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡf6aVKYw37A
The two girls did what was asked and retreated to where the exit tube was. Seeing them safe, Danny inhaled and brought up those feelings he had when he first learned this ability.
23Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡYB8QPMTZbP
Fear.
23Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡ9DNv2yL761
Then, he unleashed the Ghostly Wail. The immense ghost energy engulfed the mech, cracking glass and crushing its remaining legs. With a boom, the saucer collapses onto the ground.
23Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡtrj8mGf4ch
But such a move has its costs; Danny reverts to his human form.
23Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡKZxPL2px0Q
Danny: “Haha… it’s up to you two now.”
23Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡxNtdABj97P
The boy falls from the sky and falls onto the other side of the glass shield, unconscious.
23Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡwmE7hdnOqW
Unos: “N-No!”
23Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡdM7wAVKBtB
Juniper 2: “Now!”
23Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡfoTgh7upG9
The two Junes jump onto the saucer and charge Unos.
23Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡG8rUYUTgLb
Unos: “S-Stay back!”
23Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡ8A8kzzKb5i
They reached the glass and reared back a heavy blow laced with their full strength. But when they unleashed their attack, it was met with that annoying electric shield. But it was far weaker.
23Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡn688E3B7iq
Pushing past the pain, the two surge even more strength into the attack. More cracks form on the glass; the end has come. With one final battle cry, the glass shattered and the electric shield dropped. But their attack didn’t stop until it met the cheeks of Unos.
23Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡGSgEGTUBUy
Feeling the full weight of two Te Xuan Ze, it was too much. Unos was blown back into his cockpit seat, unconscious.
23Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡ54aKxc7WIr
Juniper 2: “Man, that felt good.”
23Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡsD8DvC5OIw
But before they properly celebrate, June noticed that Danny was slowly slipping off the saucer.
23Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡRJZzXvGTrC
Juniper 2: “Danny!”
23Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡ8ixnyBmcHS
She rushed over and slid in just in time to grab his hand.
23Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡn1Pk5xTqKh
Juniper 2: “Gotcha.”
23Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡakioTlC0yQ
Danny: “Haha, good catch. Thanks, June.”
23Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡOewkpcPRV2
Good job indeed, there was just one problem. Juniper was slipping too.
23Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡNficwGPgxI
Juniper 2: “Uh-oh.”
23Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡPA9ibbW9HN
Fortunately, there’s another June to grab her leg.
23Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡ83tWnMvJlW
Juniper 1: “Shouldn’t you think before you leap?”
23Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡETy7H3Pazm
Juniper 2: “Shut it and pull us up.”
23Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡrpaVIYRvyx
June 1 rolled her eyes and helped the two of them onto more solid ground. Now finally out of danger, the three of them breathed a sigh of relief.
23Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡ8cvAgNSY8t
Juniper 1: “So, what do we do with spider face over there?”
23Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡO2V0IWrJFe
Juniper 2: “He’s not a demon, so we can’t use a banishment spell on him.”
23Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡ8JQXRHRel9
Danny: “He’s an alien; maybe Lilo or Jimmy might know what to do.”
23Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡOATrXmEBpm
Juniper 1: “Who?”
23Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡsw1HVCXkBj
Danny: “Right. Okay, here’s what happened.”
23Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡRJlBq4sdbI
23Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡ2zzFuchW23
Juniper 1: “That’s…. a lot to take in. I’m used to different dimensions, but parallel Earths, talking sponges, aliens, and robot spiders… it’s crazy.”
23Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡcyTOsZj39u
Juniper 2: “That’s what I said!”
23Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡcEG57hN0Mw
Juniper 1: “And you! I don’t even know what to think about you. What are we going to tell Ah-Ma!?”
23Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡRiRugHQ6Zx
Juniper 2: “Nothing.”
23Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡt5QZ9MjDOT
Juniper 1: “Huh?”
23Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡ9roaak2SCW
Juniper 2: “Look, this is bad enough for me as it is. I don’t want to burden my family and friends with it. So it would be better to not tell them. You should just go.”
23Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡ7xTEXSHjNc
Juniper 1: “That’s not fair!”
23Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡ8DXS3ou5Ew
Juniper 2: “Huh?”
23Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡKbjxPNed7T
Juniper 1: “You’re not some evil clone that needs to be banished. Yeah, it’s freaky that someone made a robot version of me, but it doesn’t mean I hate you or anything.”
23Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡBNOi8vU3T4
Juniper 2: “I… huh… wow… didn’t expect that.”
23Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡEMjVKv1bRJ
Juniper 1: “You’re me; how could you not expect this? If I were in your shoes, I would hate to have to say goodbye to everyone.”
23Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡ1RVsKGLdkQ
Juniper 2: “But… there can be only one Te Xuan Ze.”
23Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡ9LTSBaHoqB
Juniper 1: “Well, I think it’s time for an exception. Don’t worry me; I’ll convince Ah-Ma somehow.”
23Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡUFP7Hi1VUJ
Juniper 2: “… Thanks.”
23Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡ5ct9UhNu1e
Danny: “Wow, you guys got over this quick.”
23Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡmqfRD154TR
Juniper 1: “Like I said before, I’m used to weird.”
23Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡAsCO3HfnVV
Danny: “Haha, I guess you did. Well, if everything is sorted, we should head back.”
23Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡwk9SzuaXNt
Juniper 2: “Right.”
23Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡlVZle03b8j
June 2 lifted the unconscious Unos and joined the other two as they left through the tube.
23Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡZ4ymdbbicZ
23Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡ4IQCKmDePd
Danny: “Huh, where is everyone?”
23Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡK7r0kBcsMQ
Juniper 2: “I guess they’re still dealing with their spiders.”
23Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡLeTR2uxUge
Danny: “We better give them a hand then. Let’s check on Jimmy first.”
23Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡYeTklWVT1i
They did so and the sight awaiting them was shocking.
23Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡseOl3lnne1
Dos: “Again! I’ll beat you this time!”
23Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡUZeckF2nK2
Jimmy: “If you say so.”
23Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡcdhodMXhUP
Juniper 1: “Are they playing-”
23Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡmtghGUlHMO
Danny: “Chess? Yes, yes, they are.”
23Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡ654l4L5FLe
Juniper 2: “What’s going on here!?”
23Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡy9F2G8ey4p
Jimmy: “Oh, Danny, June, I’m glad you’re… why are there two of you?”
23Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡZXBUFniDvr
Dos: “One of them is a robot Tres made. Focus.”
23Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡyVnMDC2iOq
Jimmy: “WHAT!?”
23Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡhbF6S3VI8H
Danny: “Sort of a long story, we can explain once we get everyone. Are you done?”
23Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡUHaheDsDx9
Dos: “No, I have only won 12 times to his 20. I must overcome this challenge.”
23Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡf7TBYwUmN7
Juniper 2: “While we were fighting for our lives, you were playing chess!?”
23Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡUM2i2tSKXL
Jimmy: “It was the best and easiest way to neutralize Dos. He was only interested in invasion because he likes to strategize. Now that he’s addicted to chess, he won’t invade anyone.”
23Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡcy1oK3i47B
Danny: “But Jimmy, you can’t play with him forever.”
23Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡtNLYgMU10z
Jimmy: “I won’t have to.”
23Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡn5qDd9TGLU
Dos: “W-What? Are you leaving me my nemesis?”
23Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡzSTZCxeaxv
Juniper 1: “Hehe, nemesis. He sounds like one of Dennis’ friends.”
23Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡnPKPwMPnhr
Juniper 2: “I know, right?”
23Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡjjBTWl3nxX
Jimmy: “I have to. But I’ll play you again if you can beat my little brother in a match 5 million times in a row.”
23Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡWSMYyXVmCH
Danny & The Junes: “5 million times!!”
23Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡkySXQqsT79
Jimmy: “Surely, that shouldn’t be too hard for you, right?”
23Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡBFwbc8DHeF
Dos: “Of course not, nemesis. My life span is more than enough for that low number.”
23Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡftmbVbR6c8
Danny & The Junes: “LOW!!!!”
23Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡTmYXB7w4UQ
Danny: “How long do these guys live?”
23Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡdxPjqCMv4b
Juniper 1: “Are you sure they’re not demons pretending to be aliens?”
23Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡXSbFbDCJJI
Jimmy: “Great, follow me, and I’ll introduce you to him after we’re done with stuff here.”
23Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡ27eHQgMhnR
Dos: “Great!”
23Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡVFYCNTuq3R
The two got up and walked up to the exit tube. On the way, Danny whispered something to Jimmy.
23Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡm39UzC0fqU
Danny: “I didn’t know you had a brother.”
23Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡuGAKqo0hYx
Jimmy: “Long story short, he’s a robot I created. Not like June though, but he’s still good enough to play with Dos for a long time.”
23Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡGmVVyHbMbE
Danny: “Oh… okay.”
23Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡ8O5E7PUzAc
Danny: ‘Why is Sam the only normal friend I have? And she’s a goth!’
23Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡ6U5fmFEsF0
23Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡqSLGqWqq2V
Juniper 2: “Oh, that’s so not fair.”
23Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡWK523ye5RH
The last room they had to go to was the Winter Wonderland. Based on the happy faces, no one had to fight here.
23Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡXWwevbubrJ
Danny: “Yeah, I got nothing.”
23Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡg1iqqwQMCV
Tres: “Oh, you guys done already?”

Tres was helping Timmy and Wanda turn Cosmo into a snowman.
23Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡx2nkpi9TPo
Timmy: “Guys, you’re… why are there two Junes?”
23Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡ1vkY1rbyAB
The Junes: “Later.”
23Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡaQyI9XoZKp
Lilo and Stitch, seeing that it was almost time to go home, ran to the main group.
23Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡsowaPdnCkT
Lilo: “Wow, June, you didn’t tell us you had a twin sister.”
23Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡUl7nzCoe4S
The two Junes looked at each other, and the same thought crosses their mind.
23Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡyZjBVS9xxj
The Junes: ‘Sister, huh? I always did want a sister.’
23Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡ5Gc7xOb7oY
But knowing it wouldn’t be that simple, they turned back to Lilo and answered.
23Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡ8HvTMZRmk8
The Junes: “It’s more complicated than that.”
23Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡcdMd2W3bvR
SpongeBob: “Danny! Did you and June beat that mean old Unos?”
23Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡrgjmYD9FHv
Danny: “Yep, June got him right here. Jimmy beat Dos with a chess game.”
23Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡojtiEX0Cvd
Dos: “I will have my vengeance soon enough.”
23Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡa1iIj4apGJ
Timmy: “You would win that way. What? Too scared to fight him one-on-one?”
23Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡyFibDYMHFi
Jimmy: “Oh yeah, what about you? You didn’t even fight Tres.”
23Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡG7POMUDO1p
Timmy: “He was so scared of me, he gave up as soon as he saw me. Right, Tres?”
23Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡxTBDxM0gK1
Tres: “Yeah, I’m totally scared of this kid with a silly pink hat. My knees are shaking.”
23Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡ3XjGob9UMV
The group shared a warm laugh. Despite the desperate fight Danny and June had, this helped ease the stress that built up.
23Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡRYWlTvRCBW
Tres: “So, Unos really lost.”
23Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡY1YiKBRRX7
Dos: “It was only a matter of time. He relied on us too much and always thought he knew best.”
23Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡmxv6EWrnY4
Tres: “To be fair, he just wanted to help us out.”
23Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡVXkE5aCv0P
Lilo: “What do you mean?”
23Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡjfm48stJgz
Tres: “We didn’t… come from such a prosperous home world.”
23Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡcgNoQdKLsR
Dos: “In fact, our race is sort of the laughing stock of the galactic community. Most of us are lazy and have no desire to conquer.”
23Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡTzKD7ejWWP
As he said that, he glared at Tres who embodied that stereotype. The youngest spider responded by rolling his eyes.
23Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡ7ywV2NQMbX
Tres: “So to prove our worth, Unos wanted to conquer Earth. Due to XJ9, it’s notorious for being hard to deal with.”
23Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡmaLqOer7bi
Dos: “He said when we did so, we’d get the respect we deserve and the resources to play to our heart’s content.”
23Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡr8LGAji9tx
Tres: “More resources and better homes for us and the kids.”
23Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡFHJxsgmark
Juniper 1: “…Man, now I feel kind of bad.”
23Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡI9ziCUHnkJ
Juniper 2: “I don’t.”
23Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡHNZXxYV1rE
Spongebob: “Doesn’t excuse him for being such a meanie.”
23Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡxVi7I0mnZI
Lilo: “Yeah, but… I get it, he just wanted a place for his Ohana to belong.”
23Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡ4JhkXl7nop
Tres: “We belonged together, no matter the place. It didn’t matter what people said, we were happy the way we were. But he didn’t see that. Now he has to go to galactic prison or something.”
23Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡtNjWwhSqTE
Lilo: “I don’t think he’s as bad as Hamsterviel. Maybe he doesn’t have to.”
23Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡDZLEcfroo9
Danny: “Maybe, but we shouldn’t make any decision until Ancilla talks to him.”
23Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡaNqjzGQ9cj
Jimmy: “Good idea. Everyone, get close.”
23Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡQI3ZkijGqS
They did so, and Jimmy activated the device to take them back to Ancilla.
23Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡf43wXWs4uS
23Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡ7SgcY3fRyT
Ancilla: “Well, the whole family is here.”
23Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡu0DI5hh2LV
When the group got back, they left the spiders to themselves and just watched. Of course, the June situation was explained soon after stepping back.
23Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡANONELuGZa
Everyone was accepting of the situation and befriended both Junes, something June 2 was touched by. However, whether she can stay in Orchid Bay remains to be seen.
23Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡ5BYhi6GK11
But before that, it was time to watch this spider family drama come to an end.
23Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡnmmXwZChFE
Unos: “Untie me!”
23Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡgrkrBUFAuw
Spinner: “No can do. You would try something if we did.”
23Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡ7BbdkcI7bs
Widow: “Besides, it’s time for you to listen for once.”
23Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡtGjlRkSppT
The two small spiders were on the shoulder of Unos, making sure the webbing held. They might be robots, but they can still produce strong spider silk if needed.
23Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡA36HuO7fUk
Unos: “So ungrateful! If you all took your jobs more seriously, we would have conquered Earth and made it big by now.”
23Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡoOg4C0CEjZ
Tres: “I don’t really care about making it big. I was fine before.”
23Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡMSH5K1COeA
Dos: “As much as I enjoyed the conquest from a strategic point of view, I also would have preferred to continue the war games on the home world.”
23Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡ6BaFaMEVNe
Tres: “Of course you would. No one liked playing that game, you know.”
23Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡIgs0ZH7jQ0
Dos: “Some did; you just didn’t notice.”
23Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡ8XPSRwZPxz
Unos: “Enough! You don’t know what’s best for you.”
23Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡgEtMbDxupC
Ancilla: “And you do!? You have done nothing but drive us apart. I’m still surprised how much influence you alone had. To think, Dos and Tres weren’t even that into this whole invasion idea.”
23Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡKGI5XfOOF1
Spinner: “I’m relieved to hear Father wasn’t that far gone.”
23Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡByTN30ejPw
Tres: “Don’t worry little buddy, I only care about creating interesting things.”
23Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡAoZ7YWpmbz
Unos: “You would have all the resources you could ever need after we won the glory of conquering Earth. No more sneers from the galactic community either. But now… it’s hopeless. I lost to a bunch of children.”
23Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡ2UXScEaujK
Tres: “Yep, so best give up and move on.”
23Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡrsJ005oZ8R
Unos: “No, we can try again! Together, we can defeat them!”
23Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡJaDreUWXm4
Ancilla: “No! The time for fighting is over. If it wasn’t for the wise words of one of those children, I would have dealt with you personally.”
23Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡ1FrN1quCoB
Widow: “So instead, we came up with a suitable punishment.”
23Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡmjLSNHTrhY
Ancilla: “At least, until you decide to change your mind and come back to us.”
23Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡgAUJSCizCx
Unos: “… Never.”
23Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡX0t59vNOkZ
Ancilla: “… So be it. Lilo, you know your universe’s galactic foundation?”
23Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡEnFmLXwGiN
Lilo: “Uh, yeah.”
23Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡnkFekhZm0Q
Ancilla: “We’re handing Unos over to them.”
23Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡnAewr9qCpX
Lilo: “Are you sure? He’s… family.”
23Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡHIN9Z1aXny
Ancilla: “We won’t forget him and won’t leave him behind. But it’s his choice if he wants to be with the rest of us. If not, then there is nothing we can do.”
23Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡJeP8KatGwI
Lilo and Stitch walk up to Unos, who whips his head away from her.
23Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡaQLMauBf3a
Lilo: “You know, despite what you did, they still love you. You were just trying to help them, but you did it the wrong way.”
23Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡJG6fvB5L3Y
Unos: “They’re only saying that because we lost. If we won, they would say it was the right way.”
23Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡstFf6tfpUp
Lilo: “No, they wouldn’t. I don’t like it when Mertle says bad things about me either. But I don’t think I would hurt Nani just to get back at her. And if I did, I would say sorry.”
23Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡ6CFUrT12bZ
Unos: “… It was for the greater good.”
23Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡTtIxL2vA9x
Lilo: “It’s never okay to hurt your Ohana. Never.”
23Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡn5nLWRb90J
Unos took a moment to think about what he should do. What path should he take, and what would benefit his family in the end?
23Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡgsENySztEq
Unos: “… Would you all seriously forgive me… just like that?”
23Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡIJhzzFAc0f
Tres: “I don’t know about forgiveness. But if you want to work for it, I’m game.”
23Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡP8DV9TuIhs
Dos: “Same.”
23Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡAibFCUqKK4
Spinner: “As long as you don’t do anything like before, I can try forgiving you.”
23Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡwhpgWJqRLV
Widow: “I’ll accept it if Ancilla is the head of the family.”
23Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡOTiWvZ2CLe
Ancilla: “Excuse me?”
23Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡ3zGKKiONsE
Lilo: “That’s a good idea!”
23Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡBz4aGUYnmz
Ancilla: “I-I don’t think-”
23Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡzRoduzO4HT
Widow: “You may be the youngest of us, but you were the one who decided to take a stand. You recruited great heroes to bring us all together again. If there was anyone who could keep us together, it’s you.”
23Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡ6pBifGruKK
Ancilla: “I… don’t know what to say. I didn’t expect things to turn out like this.”
23Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡVLNE1uMEQL
Stitch: “Heegata no feebee.”
23Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡpBDG2I39wv
Lilo: “Like Stitch said, you can do it.”
23Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡaErgug3hm6
Ancilla: “Well, if you think so, Lilo. This wouldn’t have been possible without you. Thank you.”
23Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡiy41QeHMlV
Lilo: “Hehehe, thanks.”
23Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡVokDn9DIx1
Spongebob and Patrick had to be escorted out due to the amount of tears. They came back when everything settled back down.
23Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡvl4GX2cl7b
As for June 2, she wasn’t completely happy with the outcome. But it’s not like she can do much about it. Complaining won’t change her situation. At least Unos wasn’t fully forgiven or in charge anymore.
23Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡZdBO6vYbFD
Ancilla: “Thank you all again; you have helped bring this family back from the brink and saved your worlds.”
23Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡ1jVIrN4zuS
Jimmy: “It was no problem, Ancilla. So, is it all over?”
23Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡL9LVhOYtJq
Ancilla: “Yes, I’ll send you all back home. Then we’ll break down this factory and return to the main ship. Afterward, we’ll go back to our home planet.”
23Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡJ6oySG0odS
Jimmy: “Great! But you don’t need to send us home yourself. I figured out how to make more stable portals of my own. I think I can send everyone home.”
23Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡ3fNall28nb
Ancilla: “Haha, you really are a boy genius.”
23Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡvjgsnwCGRT
Dos: “Will you take me to see your little brother?”
23Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡtUg87Mqjs0
Tres: “What? You’re leaving us?”
23Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡEg6xCrrX9p
Dos: “Worry not, only for a bit. I must defeat his little brother a few times before I can challenge him again at chess.”
23Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡiOuRXijBux
Danny & The Junes: ‘A few!!!?’
23Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡFNdndDQxT9
Jimmy: “Don’t worry, I’ll take you when everyone is safely back home. Ready, guys?!”
23Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡglKjENTPz3
“Yeah!”
23Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡ0FWCfuVWW8
Jimmy takes a small device and drops it on the ground. A swirling pink energy field is generated afterward. Using another small device, Jimmy types in some coordinates.
23Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡYfLtKAZaSQ
First was Spongebob and Patrick. They were easy since they were already in their world. He just needed to teleport them outside the factory.
23Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡBdqOUwr6lc
Spongebob: “See you, guys! It was really fun.”
23Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡwEkudxf2Ro
Patrick: “Yeah, especially all that snow! We gotta do that again.”
23Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡCwDtkgb110
The next was Timmy and his fairies.
23Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡ41DzXdFL2v
Jimmy: “Well Turner, it’s been a blast. See you next time.”
23Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡZlguyAzWll
Timmy: “Sure, but maybe next time let’s hang out when our worlds aren’t in danger.”
23Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡtnrOliS3PQ
Jimmy: “I’ll think of something.”
23Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡE0vgsmfSCH
Lilo and Stitch were up next.
23Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡpGOFXFg7Qt
Lilo: “Bye everyone, it was nice meeting you all.”
23Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡk9nj7u1bC7
Stitch: “Yeah, new Achi-Baba!”
23Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡA3eHR33uJo
Lilo: “I can’t wait to tell Nani, Jumba, and Pleakley about what happened.”
23Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡXlLGE9l4qd
Lilo: “Oh, wait! I almost forgot.”
23Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡBqjubu0eQP
Lilo stopped right before leaving and turned to Juniper 2. She ran up to her and hugged her.
23Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡHYdI61LgGL
Lilo: “Don’t worry, it doesn’t matter if you’re a robot. You’re just as real as anyone else, and you’re our friend. We won’t forget you.”
23Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡyBl0YV6QfX
Juniper 2 fought back the tears and hugged Lilo back.
23Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡJLqcIC0jKj
Juniper 2: “Thanks Lilo, I really appreciate it.”
23Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡjv8UshKRGW
After a moment, they separate, and Lilo runs back to Stitch. One more wave goodbye later, and they were gone.
23Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡK7ODOBCBUU
Next up, Danny. But instead of leaving after saying goodbye, he asks Jimmy for a favor and offers June a choice.
23Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡ47fTfkVXua
Danny: “June, just in case… you know, you’re welcome in my world.”
23Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡAZy1xjPUg1
Juniper 2: “What?”
23Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡONLL5ShMnI
Danny: “Based on the little I know about you, magic and all that, I think I know a place you can fit in. A one true place like Lilo says.”
23Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡjVtvw3Q4wF
Juniper 1: “Don’t worry about it; I’m sure Ah-Ma will be happy to have two Te Xuan Ze.”
23Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡhVdOGH6eSB
Danny: “I hope so. But just in case, I’ll be at the Nasty Burger. Jimmy will leave the portal open and wait for you. Okay?”
23Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡzZRMlOVrFj
Juniper 2: “… Thanks, Danny.”
23Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡEMBr1bujyP
Danny: “Hey, I’m a hero, it’s what we do.”
23Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡA9dcL5xn8d
Danny walks through his portal, leaving Jimmy and the Junes alone.
23Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡGk2RznHCHt
Juniper 1: “Ready?”
23Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡcxE23op4PU
Juniper 2: “Sure, let’s go home.”
23Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡTWJCjVeoR1
The two entered the portal, and in the next moment, they ar outside in the park. They were finally home.
23Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡSVcPfbPLcy
Juniper 1: “It’s good to be back.”
23Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡR37npFxCUX
Juniper 2: “I’m surprised the bracelet isn’t going crazy.”
23Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡTd1DmRPC0D
Juniper 1: “Don’t jinx it. Let’s go home and explain things to Ray Ray and Monroe. You’ll have to sneak in, though.”
23Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡKZXlY0KGAR
Juniper 2: “No problem.”
23Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡdwERcuRvfJ
23Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡa7XduZ1Srz
Ray Ray: “Hahaha, no way! This is so awesome!”
23Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡ3xqHPImRA0
Monroe: “Boy, this is the furthest thing from awesome. June, I told you it was a bad idea to enter that place by yourself.”
23Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡu6ePnfhbtK
Juniper 2 successfully sneaked into their room while Juniper 1 had to explain her strange absence. Good thing she met Monroe and Ray Ray first; explaining things to their parents would be difficult. Right now, the group was in June’s room.
23Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡJWH1uezSD4
Ray Ray: “But she went on some crazy multiverse adventure. With a talking sponge! Man, I wish I could’ve gone.”
23Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡFBJRIwaTHn
Monroe: “Yes, but while they were doing that, Jasmine had to come out of retirement. Again!”
23Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡs7lTOMv0Ox
Juniper 1: “I’m sure Lila helped her, and besides, I’m back, and I brought help.”
23Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡpHrJNBQM6G
Monroe: “Oh yes, the robot.”
23Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡvKM8LxAZWq
Juniper 2: “Hey! I’m not just some robot.”
23Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡCI6hfTIwbD
Monroe: “I… look, I’m sorry. This is going to take some time to get used to. Two Junes…”
23Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡuEUMaNDgdk
Juniper 1: “So you accept her?”
23Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡSkQXtOhNOV
Monroe: “I accept she isn’t some evil clone. Not that she can stay here.”
23Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡUX8aCSMOnP
Juniper 1: “What?! Why not?”
23Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡpx6UdOMB16
Monroe: “Because there can only be one Te Xuan Ze.”
23Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡJv10lVWw38
Juniper 2: “I knew it.”
23Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡba3HYWG3yw
Juniper 1: “But we’re both the Te Xuan Ze! And even if she’s not, we can take turns.”
23Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡ72jOYQjcfv
Juniper 2: “Oh yeah! No more bailing on our friends.”
23Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡkNY7t5J5FV
Juniper 1: “No more being on the clock 24/7.”
23Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡBuIk3IcT3I
Juniper 2: “No more having to choose between knocking out the next demon of the week or something like a school dance.”
23Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡPI7JBYb8ym
Juniper 2: “We can take breaks every now and then.”
23Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡU015hQ6kLF
Ray Ray: “Sounds like a plan to me.”
23Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡPKQBRhfoQO
Monroe: “Oh really? And where will you live, June?”
23Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡuhcHXpklye
Juniper 2: “What do you mean?”
23Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡnGfxaHTEGH
Monroe: “I don’t know if you noticed, but your mother only has three kids. How do we explain the sudden appearance of another you?”
23Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡID6BC6mhle
Juniper 1: “S-She can… book a hotel or something.”
23Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡtYv1M3mGLP
Monroe: “With what money, June? Might as well take the deal that Danny fellow gave you. It’s the better option.”
23Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡZgBiOM3ITx
Juniper 2: “But… what about my friends? What about you and Ray Ray? Mom and Dad. Ah-Ma. I… don’t want to leave.”
23Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡfdsYd6qYkd
Ah-Ma: “I’m sorry June, but you can’t stay.”
23Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡ3YQa8Px6jZ
The Junes: “Ah-Ma!”
23Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡgz0L6AZc8x
The old woman appears at the door of their room, looking at the two of them with sorrow.
23Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡwasEkH2AF3
Ah-Ma: “Never expected to get another granddaughter. Even if she is not really human. But I’m glad you’re both alright.”
23Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡN003WHR92Z
Juniper 2: “But… why can’t I stay?”
23Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡdMJmLVrx7Z
Ah-Ma: “Because it would be nearly impossible to hide you. Worse than that, you’re simply not the Te Xuan Ze. The magic in you is not the same as the… main June.”
23Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡqTDAoMUp5Q
Juniper 1: “How isn’t she the Te Xuan Ze? She’s me!”
23Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡfzLEdHJXo7
The old woman sighs before sitting on the bed and signaling the two girls to sit next to her. She takes both of their hands and notices the difference immediately.
23Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡwS3RlfZ4FM
June 1 feels warm and bright, human.
23Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡzg7om2wjf3
June 2 isn’t too different, but her hand is a bit heavier and colder, robot.
23Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡcKoSxaFH3n
Ah-Ma: “Because she’s not a perfect copy. The magic of the Te Xuan Ze, of the Elders, is not easily copied. She’s slightly weaker than you, and I don’t think she’ll be as good at magic either.”
23Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡ1vCocIhzhN
Juniper 2: “No way…”
23Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡQfAuL3ECPx
Monroe: “It gets worse. You don’t think demons wouldn’t take notice of those minor, but still noticeable, differences? What do you think will happen when they realize something is wrong?”
23Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡl7TYBAl9HN
Ah-Ma: “It’s too dangerous and could draw unwanted attention. Who knows what might happen if the magical world learns of the… multiverse?”
23Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡK256v5YZsi
Monroe: “It’s a madhouse out there as it is.”
23Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡEvNIhusPp7
Juniper 1: “So what? She’s should just leave, forever?”
23Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡ9CHjw4yJ0m
Ah-Ma: “Not forever; she can still visit. Just not often enough to draw attention.”
23Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡ8XvdhXyQq7
Ray Ray: “Well, this sucks.”
23Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡwxNHDtx2Ht
Juniper 2: “You’re telling me.”
23Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡi0fcfUJIf3
Juniper 1: “Ah-Ma, that’s not fair! There has to be another way.”
23Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡp1RPZ4TRui
June 1 might not be the one being asked to leave, but she knows how she would feel if she were.
23Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡPDcGITElyP
Juniper 2: “It’s okay, I… kind of expected it.”
23Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡrjyGKYAmGa
Ah-Ma: “I’m sorry, June. I really am.”
23Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡuncUyU5U31
Juniper 2: “Thanks, Ah-Ma.”
23Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡrQtwu8LaMf
Juniper 1: “So that’s it? Just like that?”
23Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡawWaDznMTh
Juniper 2: “Yeah… but if you don’t mind… can I say goodbye to everyone? When it comes to my friends, I just want to hang out with them one more time.”
23Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡLCkxEOpFbt
Ah-Man: “Of course.”
23Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡUsv8m8Ct8w
So that’s what she did. To not waste time or worry anyone else, they didn’t explain the situation to Lila or Dennis. June 2 just hung out with them for a bit before telling her she had something to do.
23Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡsMkTxxOnDU
They sensed something was wrong but couldn’t put their finger on it.
23Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡSuIfxJREpA
Then she hung out with her family. They were even more oblivious, but June 2 took what she could get. She hugged them, and told them how much she loved them. It confused them, but they accepted it.
23Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡl48GpfHKF1
Finally, she spent time with her school friends. Jody could also tell something was wrong. She wondered if it was about what she still hadn’t questioned her friend about. Yeah, the fact she saw her jumping buildings.

But not having the bravery to confront her yet, Jody says nothing. Instead, the friends just spent some quality time before Juniper knew it was time to go.
23Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡ8eo5roPhXh
All the while, June 1 got a taste of what June 2 would have had to deal with. She couldn’t be at home or anywhere her friends might be. Ray Ray and Monroe were with her, but she knew her twin would not have that luxury.
23Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡWVhnlDg1a9
Before long, it was time. They regrouped at the portal.
23Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡ6DI9XGQrv8
Juniper 1: “Sorry.”
23Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡgedWbTBkh0
Juniper 2: “Don’t be; I get why I have to go. I’m just glad I could say goodbye to everyone.”
23Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡMfnkl0xccO
Juniper 1: “Well… try to look at the bright side; you can leave Orchid Bay. Maybe you can even become an astronaut for both of us.
23Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡCHfYdjD0YX
Juniper 2: “Haha, I guess.”
23Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡByparEra8U
In truth, that is a great bright side to this. She hated the fact she was bound here until the next Te Xuan Ze was chosen. But the cost was heavy.
23Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡQTFBjFBpLx
Ray Ray: “See you later, June. We didn’t know each other long, but I’ll miss yah.”
23Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡf16e6CYwCI
Juniper 2: “Haha, I’ll miss you too. Don’t give our sister too much trouble, okay?”
23Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡtfownvag5F
Ray Ray: “No promises.”
23Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡPfbfuVSnW8
Juniper 2: “What about you, Monroe? Anything you want to say?”
23Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡUgqZDdniLK
Monroe: “No. We’ll see you again. You won’t get tears out of me.”
23Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡv8ZeYWndjC
Juniper 2: “Haha, alright.”
23Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡXeHskMuCoK
She says as she pats his head.
23Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡaaBWsLVtB0
Ah-Ma was the last one to say goodbye. She hasn’t known this Juniper long, but she is too much like her granddaughter to not care about. She will see her again, but she knows this June will be alone for a good amount of time.
23Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡvvmXn2B8HH
She’s only 11 years old, it truly isn’t fair. The best she can do for her now is give her a warm hug and send her away with a book bag full of supplies.
23Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡ4eRG99lmmU
Juniper 2: “See you later, Ah-Ma.”
23Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡwRRikt7SIY
Ah-Ma: “Later, kiddo. Remember, you are still welcome back here. This is not goodbye.”
23Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡK22vxeZ9vx
Juniper 2: “… I know.”
23Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡhRejqBE0j5
After that, June 2 waved them goodbye, not knowing when she’d see them again. Stepping through the portal, a flash of light later, June saw Jimmy already waiting.
23Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡbB0D5onu53
Jimmy: “Sorry it didn’t work out.”
23Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡe9oFY3npdP
Juniper 2: “It’s fine; I expected it.”
23Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡzXjGk28NRh
Not wanting to dwell on it too long, Jimmy changed the coordinates for the portal. After she was gone, Jimmy would take Dos to Brobot and then relax in his lab.
23Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡXxlx5WvWvy
As for June, she entered Danny’s world and met him at the still-wreaked Nasty Burger.
23Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡFuLFvqfWAD
Juniper 2: “So, where are you going to take me?”
23Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡZ9uno06ROL
Danny: “New York. Don’t worry, Tucker knows a friend who knows a friend who can arrange a ride for you.”
23Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡB7j5NBpoa6
Juniper 2: “That’s… suspicious.”
23Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡARifCFE0vJ
Danny: “Don’t worry, she’s a hero too. She’s even more famous than me. I’ll also call ahead for you so my friend knows who you are.”
23Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡb7izHpEHBz
Juniper 2: “You have a lot of friends.”
23Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡs0aOWUrSUX
Danny: “Eeh, being ghost boy has its perks.”
23Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡbJHcbM5WDC
Juniper 2: “Well, okay, if you’re sure.”
23Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡDI1AenfKIw
He was sure. Not even an hour later, a ride was ready to pick her up and fly her to New York. That’s right, fly her. In a small plane! Who’s this friend Danny knows that can do something so impossible!?
23Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡlLd2GjkkZV
Regardless, it didn’t take long for June to arrive in New York City. As soon as they touched down, she said her thanks and exited the plane.
23Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡK2HvMV1jCQ
On the way to her destination, she felt it. There was magic in the city. It felt familiar but different. That’s when the situation really hit here.
23Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡLEavnDuaB5
She wasn’t in her world anymore.
23Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡkpIF1IkPTa
She wasn’t the Te Xuan Ze.
23Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡpIDW4eArbX
She had no friends here.
23Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡbX4c9ml5lF
Ray Ray and Moroe weren’t here.
23Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡrSazTu419f
Ah-Ma wasn’t here.
23Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡT5ktSCTeSp
She was… alone.
23Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡFvjSuBGRPb
It took all she had not to finally break down. She tried her best to be strong in front of her friends and family, but it was a mask.
23Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡ0ktGhpsUcg
This was not fair! She didn’t ask to be like this! Why must she give up everything!?
23Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡ4HYG7jQDte
A dark thought then slithered into her mind.
23Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡ0BaEf5eDwL
Juniper: ‘Maybe I should have taken her place…’
23Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡzmRabsFxyk
She violently shakes her head. That wouldn’t be right. Her other self doesn’t deserve that. But that doesn’t stop her from feeling the pain of abandonment.
23Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡRRytok5Kza
Juniper: “This is worse than when I learned I couldn’t leave Orchid Bay.”
23Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡlE0LsRNT7Y
That’s when she remembered the one upside to this situation: she was free. She had no responsibilities and could go anywhere she wanted. She could be an astronaut if she wanted.
23Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡNt3gvoEUiu
Maybe… she could even make new friends. She already did with Danny and the others.
23Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡRaYHP3NCbX
She closes her eyes and focuses on the bright side.
23Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡ7yazTRveMu
Juniper: “Yeah, this won’t be so bad. It’s fine. Besides, I can still visit. It’s not goodbye forever. I can see everyone again.”
23Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡWKcPaUWkUk
With that in mind, she picks up the pace to her destination. Eventually, she made it to some worn-down-looking shop called Canal Street Electronics.
23Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡDvIShgJmab
She looks down at the paper directions Danny gave her and then back up at the building.
23Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡxDJqwUeTAW
Juniper: “Really, this is the place? Where this Luong Lao Shi is?”
23Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡZPuznppdfV
She sighs, places the directions in her pocket, and prepares for her new life in this world.
23Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡP8MJqzwAJl

A/N: Thanks for reading, and expect more from the Legacy Multiverse if life allows. Don’t expect the next story to be the sequel to this one. There are many episodes and events to cover, and they don’t all revolve around June.
23Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡxyy8paoHC1
Now, you might be wondering why I did what I did with June. Here are my reasons:
23Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡgxFPRVf85U
- Helps increase the chances for crossovers.
23Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡRdNa8QIIim
- Interesting scenario and allows for interesting and impactful storylines for the future.
23Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡt97u9bBuAZ
- Allows me to expand on a plot thread left hanging by the show. No spoilers.
23Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡ4MwAHo4AIv
- The obvious and popular crossover duo of Jake and Juniper is now easily achieved.
23Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡ0LZ7gZ8PfI
- Makes this story less straightforward, more memorable, and important in the long run.
23Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡ0ndmf4GPLs
- Allows me to explore a common motif in these shows more deeply. Almost every single series in this multiverse had a clone/evil self episode. Now that common idea can have a purpose that’s explored with some depth through June 2.
23Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡDJWWdTySZA
I hope those reasons are good enough for those that weren’t fully sold on the idea. Till next time.
