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.
101Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡiREX1cQjH1
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.
101Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡlPTye7wMx5
Unos: “Welcome. It seems I get to defeat the strongest of your group. A perfect testing before besting XJ9.”
101Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡaMcjgU8N7g
Juniper: “Hold it buster! I need some answers first.”
101Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡ2ANP3I2Cy3
Unos: “Of course, masterpiece.”
101Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡxDgDogZXRj
Juniper: “Why are you calling me that?”
101Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡL8uPcn08MK
Unos smiles before answering.
101Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡNVMqTT9wD3
Unos: “Because you, Juniper Lee, aren’t the real you.”
101Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡD8Lkm5jkkO
Both June’s and Danny’s eyes widen as they recall different things.
101Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡ8sCy3xu3c8
June remembers the time she was cloned, and the idea that she may be the clone makes her shiver.
101Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡxEF4r8DyQR
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.
101Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡtpIlWNqeKs
Juniper: “W-What do you mean?”
101Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡGGjpYKKzPf
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.”
101Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡ4td5itkcUY
Juniper: “But I remember you capturing me! More than that, I remember my life! I can even eat! Robots don’t eat!”
101Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡRxnhr2fe51
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.”
101Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡHDgMz5DPNx
June started to shake uncontrollably while her fist tightened beyond the norm. Before long, she erupted with a battle cry and charged Unos.
101Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡMOykaiBcwT
Danny: “June, wait!”
101Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡGr6jJi0t3l
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.
101Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡMDF9TG5Yh5
Juniper: “He’s lying! You don’t believe him, do you?”
101Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡSPiHKhx1Ad
Danny: “Doesn’t matter; we still have to take him down. To do that, we need a plan.”
101Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡWKYlKC11dd
Juniper: “Drop me on the saucer and give me five minutes.”
101Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡT3z2F5GiKX
Danny: “I don’t think that’s a good idea.”
101Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡr4Lxmz8ZQ2
Not giving them any time to think, Unos unleashed a barrage of blaster bolts.
101Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡqRP6EL7zxc
Danny: “Whoa!”
101Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡK8But2HaDJ
The ghost boy flew around the room, barely dodging the assault.
101Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡw17FJpuw3A
Danny: “Fine, let’s go with your plan. Ready?”
101Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡ1oz4Xzhq1a
Juniper: “Ready.”
101Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡI0nhPkU82W
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.
101Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡ614I35ghJi
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.
101Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡTR4HgYQgcL
But instead of breaking, it sparked with an electric field.
101Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡYi7vQjSgYw
June: “GAAAH!”
101Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡvSx5qQNetZ
Danny: “June!”
101Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡz2r9NVyPiW
Danny flew into the fray and removed June from the shock treatment.
101Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡRLld2KNc5Z
Juniper: “Ugh… that stung.”
101Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡqPLgAeRzsx
Back in the air, he held her in a princess carry and observed the situation. It wasn’t looking good.
101Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡikFjYDQLLJ
Danny: “Okay, maybe we should have brought backup.”
101Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡUPfAKt3xWs
Unos: “Hahaha! Do you see now, Juniper?”
101Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡ97LID7qCUi
Juniper: “What do you mean?”
101Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡZ01pHZzBfD
Unos: “Why, look at your knuckles.”
101Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡsipbc2Kokr
She did so and instantly regretted it. Instead of normal bruises, there was torn skin and steel underneath.
101Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡb4nbYC3zco
Juniper: “No, no, no, no, this can’t be happening.”
101Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡWKIeYMgzUq
Unos: “It is. To prove my point, behold!”
101Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡI4bOgAxlNm
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.
101Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡr9DTgsUCAd
Juniper: “No way… I’m… fake?”
101Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡqhJk29UIJy
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.”
101Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡ0wj2SCSeSk
Juniper: “I-”
101Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡgIYsGXcVFy
Danny: “Juniper, listen to me!”
101Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡR4kHN8Q815
Juniper: “Huh?”
101Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡaEctxZDgJB
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.”
101Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡVwKUWOBjWw
June thought about it and looked at the real her. She was tempted, really tempted. The implications for her and her family are overwhelming.
101Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡno6dL08jgW
But joining this guy won’t solve anything. Especially since this is all his fault!
101Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡOpd62aARtx
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!”
101Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡJXVEWlxfx0
Unos: “Eeh, I tried.”
101Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡuukAffD8sg
And so the dance continued, Danny dodging the blaster fire while looking for a way to beat the mech. Maybe those legs are vulnerable.
101Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡvrm92IedCT
Danny: “Go for the legs!”
101Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡDIIREfca7I
Juniper: “Good idea.”
101Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡkK5sLk6c9y
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.
101Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡhVkVWL7mwu
Juniper: “Yeah!”
101Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡBWUcMUKrtO
Unos: “Nice try!”
101Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡCcukYMc1yl
The legs they just destroyed were replaced quickly after.
101Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡKqBCrnv4Cf
Danny: “You got to be kidding me.”
101Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡMgBOQeWMtn
Turrets appeared under the saucer but were blasted to bits before they could fire.
101Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡLR1R4Y22NN
Juniper: “Plan C?”
101Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡ9R96wsmM3q
Danny: “Maybe, hang on.”
101Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡiRdHWZD67N
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.
101Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡNU97wNQWJa
Danny: “Well, that didn’t work. But you can’t keep that forever.”
101Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡrXmLjhUZZH
He says just as the electrified field lowers. Danny goes to try again but stops when the field comes up again.
101Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡJyhOYXyJog
June: “GAAH!”
101Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡHbX0S1cpkO
Danny: “On no!”
101Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡfdhEUzO0Ha
Danny goes around and removes June from the shocking field again. Instead of going into the sky again, he laid her on the ground.
101Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡz1BWo8T6HW
June: “Ugh, again!?”
101Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡSY0JwXl7ip
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?”
101Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡIpEN6IJF9n
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.
101Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡZhPfoNwll9
But they were never-ending, and they don’t have infinite stamina.
101Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡ5BIUgiIgVm
Juniper: “What do we do!?”
101Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡZrt7ixEzz8
Danny: “If we had some extra help, then maybe I could…”
101Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡRQEMDwXWRg
That’s when he remembered that there was someone else here.
101Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡEsCNcd2y0o
Danny: “Hold on, June. I have an idea.”
101Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡVPh5XTIrV4
Juniper: “Hurry!”
101Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡTVUFR10i0B
Danny flies away and approaches where the other June is.
101Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡsZ362GXQp3
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?”
101Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡeAFH93np4Z
Danny: “If the other June is anything like the June I know, then we’ll be fine.”
101Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡ9LsrhdsZjG
Unos: “Tch.”
101Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡzJzhuyTpJx
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.
101Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡlyQZPwmX4g
Danny: “I gotcha you.”
101Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡgAVSnOj5DO
Juniper: “Ugh… what? Where… am I?”
101Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡ5JZ2jtTPYX
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.
101Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡqxf7okyX8O
Danny: “We don’t have a lot of time, June.”
101Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡwWsnb8Ptmj
Juniper: “Huh? Who are you?”
101Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡAbeGUDgjjt
Danny: “Danny Phantom and I need your help defeating the guy that captured you.”
101Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡi8PCAcMMPc
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.”
101Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡzkwFZ9yM9b
Danny: “So you’re willing to help?”
101Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡMuZaf1uSE3
Juniper: “Of course, where are they? Let me at them!”
101Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡXd9C22BenA
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.”
101Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡ7Zg3TJn33s
Juniper: “Relax pal, I’m the Te Xuan Ze, I’m used to weird.”
101Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡ9eDmFtXmxV
101Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡIqVuhdDmc0
The June outside was getting tired and increasingly frustrated.
101Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡC7WffKsa6T
Juniper: “Come out and fight like a man! Or… a spider. Or an alien. Whatever you are, just get out of that mech!”
101Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡ0FzW2Hb6i7
Unos: “No thanks, my people aren’t built for such savagery.”
101Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡahnaZGCkm6
Juniper: “You want savage?! I’ll give you savage!”
101Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡZxC2epIcid
She jumped and kicked out another leg. But before another could come in and replace it, June caught it.
101Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡ881A5YxOqv
Unos: “What are you-”
101Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡf8t982cVXu
Using more strength than she usually does, June forced the leg to drop into the lava. June quickly backflipped as the saucer tilted awkwardly.
101Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡRnCJgZFg4O
Juniper: “How do you like that?”
101Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡubYtLnnJkV
Unos: “Grrr, enough to electrify the whole room.”
101Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡOwRLALNFF4
Danny: “I don’t think so.”
101Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡXnkqnOHJaO
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?
101Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡL4AakHlHat
She drops from the sky right next to her other self.
101Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡ2l6toO8IvD
Juniper 2: “What the-”
101Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡHot6ErjKTB
Juniper 1: “Explain later, fight now!”
101Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡSWLmru09ZP
Juniper 2: “R-Right, man this is weird.”
101Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡLviRaY7j2m
Danny: “Get back and cover your ears!”
101Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡj8e91NCKY5
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.
101Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡ6MSdw2Yqca
Fear.
101Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡDOcKjAFvaI
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.
101Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡezaaQXfQ9J
But such a move has its costs; Danny reverts to his human form.
101Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡIevqZ3o23J
Danny: “Haha… it’s up to you two now.”
101Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡeU9T8GaeS7
The boy falls from the sky and falls onto the other side of the glass shield, unconscious.
101Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡ0YMcpTzB4Z
Unos: “N-No!”
101Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡbozb71j3KT
Juniper 2: “Now!”
101Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡFyoiymHWnt
The two Junes jump onto the saucer and charge Unos.
101Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡAzFUTTbFRN
Unos: “S-Stay back!”
101Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡpiP4b96D1v
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.
101Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡ9sNnIQqgiY
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.
101Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡyrXybbqoKz
Feeling the full weight of two Te Xuan Ze, it was too much. Unos was blown back into his cockpit seat, unconscious.
101Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡff7rt14dC2
Juniper 2: “Man, that felt good.”
101Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡWxq3efswvx
But before they properly celebrate, June noticed that Danny was slowly slipping off the saucer.
101Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡuMtQzvqHeo
Juniper 2: “Danny!”
101Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡDq7dJUJYL7
She rushed over and slid in just in time to grab his hand.
101Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡTeObK9yist
Juniper 2: “Gotcha.”
101Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡ1LL9qq1vc1
Danny: “Haha, good catch. Thanks, June.”
101Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡ9PT5sCj4Ny
Good job indeed, there was just one problem. Juniper was slipping too.
101Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡa8Aos8epQV
Juniper 2: “Uh-oh.”
101Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡiI5XIgQ5qy
Fortunately, there’s another June to grab her leg.
101Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡ4enrOlpItg
Juniper 1: “Shouldn’t you think before you leap?”
101Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡa9BLfNu3ZU
Juniper 2: “Shut it and pull us up.”
101Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡjb8b3Uis6T
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.
101Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡ5PgGlOWCAd
Juniper 1: “So, what do we do with spider face over there?”
101Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡuubmydO1wl
Juniper 2: “He’s not a demon, so we can’t use a banishment spell on him.”
101Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡm1UkNhteNH
Danny: “He’s an alien; maybe Lilo or Jimmy might know what to do.”
101Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡJL8bvYBqgt
Juniper 1: “Who?”
101Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡpRVnxmT7N5
Danny: “Right. Okay, here’s what happened.”
101Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡGBqtQuyeBN
101Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡzW98s0wgCd
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.”
101Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡNYQP8egin5
Juniper 2: “That’s what I said!”
101Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡR5SuxZiFgs
Juniper 1: “And you! I don’t even know what to think about you. What are we going to tell Ah-Ma!?”
101Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡ88oTXJMIbZ
Juniper 2: “Nothing.”
101Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡeNteBNuO2Y
Juniper 1: “Huh?”
101Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡcy8zqNRzpC
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.”
101Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡcaqZ3AoPV6
Juniper 1: “That’s not fair!”
101Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡlE4W5h2rQX
Juniper 2: “Huh?”
101Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡVkY8yNy9qT
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.”
101Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡW52zNumnoN
Juniper 2: “I… huh… wow… didn’t expect that.”
101Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡuT6CTy0dcv
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.”
101Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡ2oUlcKw7Nf
Juniper 2: “But… there can be only one Te Xuan Ze.”
101Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡHeHUuhwKBq
Juniper 1: “Well, I think it’s time for an exception. Don’t worry me; I’ll convince Ah-Ma somehow.”
101Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡK0E1LuX4v5
Juniper 2: “… Thanks.”
101Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡfmkguzS9wa
Danny: “Wow, you guys got over this quick.”
101Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡUwFFPHkAM0
Juniper 1: “Like I said before, I’m used to weird.”
101Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡf1HCuVMDui
Danny: “Haha, I guess you did. Well, if everything is sorted, we should head back.”
101Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡjrbqOyq74X
Juniper 2: “Right.”
101Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡvcx4YC8Xk6
June 2 lifted the unconscious Unos and joined the other two as they left through the tube.
101Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡO9egkK1C1D
101Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡWuxCTvnSRD
Danny: “Huh, where is everyone?”
101Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡVsouDlKorX
Juniper 2: “I guess they’re still dealing with their spiders.”
101Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡCbyiqFBpjG
Danny: “We better give them a hand then. Let’s check on Jimmy first.”
101Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡYY0JW5tzFB
They did so and the sight awaiting them was shocking.
101Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡKRYXs5AyGO
Dos: “Again! I’ll beat you this time!”
101Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡokc4crcgMq
Jimmy: “If you say so.”
101Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡr2Es7MsdnJ
Juniper 1: “Are they playing-”
101Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡPL66b9L4VD
Danny: “Chess? Yes, yes, they are.”
101Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡyiOWNTTOcH
Juniper 2: “What’s going on here!?”
101Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡuk0wFHxq2O
Jimmy: “Oh, Danny, June, I’m glad you’re… why are there two of you?”
101Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡbCZP6yfzUR
Dos: “One of them is a robot Tres made. Focus.”
101Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡMvAO4U4ZdW
Jimmy: “WHAT!?”
101Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡKbjcCalcH4
Danny: “Sort of a long story, we can explain once we get everyone. Are you done?”
101Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡaKvTS2woy4
Dos: “No, I have only won 12 times to his 20. I must overcome this challenge.”
101Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡZjMLHTXX75
Juniper 2: “While we were fighting for our lives, you were playing chess!?”
101Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡ0aJsIMFivI
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.”
101Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡX2iUwPgAoy
Danny: “But Jimmy, you can’t play with him forever.”
101Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡifKNzzt4D5
Jimmy: “I won’t have to.”
101Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡIUlEYdLMgE
Dos: “W-What? Are you leaving me my nemesis?”
101Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡPPK0CPZKdu
Juniper 1: “Hehe, nemesis. He sounds like one of Dennis’ friends.”
101Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡ3w9L56fGMQ
Juniper 2: “I know, right?”
101Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡ3PxT8AnzSs
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.”
101Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡurp3yQhD29
Danny & The Junes: “5 million times!!”
101Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡbazINVON3E
Jimmy: “Surely, that shouldn’t be too hard for you, right?”
101Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡrs6CNJqANh
Dos: “Of course not, nemesis. My life span is more than enough for that low number.”
101Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡOkt8UlhMIq
Danny & The Junes: “LOW!!!!”
101Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡFgFm5pRwok
Danny: “How long do these guys live?”
101Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡwv2O6l6KeA
Juniper 1: “Are you sure they’re not demons pretending to be aliens?”
101Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡTvZne0bFRq
Jimmy: “Great, follow me, and I’ll introduce you to him after we’re done with stuff here.”
101Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡKNOF3OcFWE
Dos: “Great!”
101Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡJwnQ0nxyKc
The two got up and walked up to the exit tube. On the way, Danny whispered something to Jimmy.
101Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡNsU5cqHsyp
Danny: “I didn’t know you had a brother.”
101Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡ0edAwQIPT4
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.”
101Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡ8mYnbbWTnW
Danny: “Oh… okay.”
101Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡIuC3eA3FqC
Danny: ‘Why is Sam the only normal friend I have? And she’s a goth!’
101Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡN3n6sOmTXX
101Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡDCJiuVCiti
Juniper 2: “Oh, that’s so not fair.”
101Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡrJG5UA7FhN
The last room they had to go to was the Winter Wonderland. Based on the happy faces, no one had to fight here.
101Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡTRaEwi5DhA
Danny: “Yeah, I got nothing.”
101Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡjg7xH3ixdA
Tres: “Oh, you guys done already?”
101Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡYFDgcDDDau
Tres was helping Timmy and Wanda turn Cosmo into a snowman.
101Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡQxdTp0OWRj
Timmy: “Guys, you’re… why are there two Junes?”
101Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡuQQbkgeiph
The Junes: “Later.”
101Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡhibyqYPXq5
Lilo and Stitch, seeing that it was almost time to go home, ran to the main group.
101Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡ9HnoWVeKtY
Lilo: “Wow, June, you didn’t tell us you had a twin sister.”
101Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡw1v0kXJPb1
The two Junes looked at each other, and the same thought crosses their mind.
101Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡknoHXyFbZl
The Junes: ‘Sister, huh? I always did want a sister.’
101Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡCO7FZFun03
But knowing it wouldn’t be that simple, they turned back to Lilo and answered.
101Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡl25BuWLiZj
The Junes: “It’s more complicated than that.”
101Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡfsXLeL7xMp
SpongeBob: “Danny! Did you and June beat that mean old Unos?”
101Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡpAFe4LrILA
Danny: “Yep, June got him right here. Jimmy beat Dos with a chess game.”
101Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡ9GBeWVXvWT
Dos: “I will have my vengeance soon enough.”
101Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡQzQCHAF9pW
Timmy: “You would win that way. What? Too scared to fight him one-on-one?”
101Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡbRP3cRvOo1
Jimmy: “Oh yeah, what about you? You didn’t even fight Tres.”
101Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡzDrSMC3vuX
Timmy: “He was so scared of me, he gave up as soon as he saw me. Right, Tres?”
101Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡpm0TJbcT9T
Tres: “Yeah, I’m totally scared of this kid with a silly pink hat. My knees are shaking.”
101Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡo786QTzYUs
The group shared a warm laugh. Despite the desperate fight Danny and June had, this helped ease the stress that built up.
101Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡgKbkwH9HJd
Tres: “So, Unos really lost.”
101Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡb4ZhYKc8MD
Dos: “It was only a matter of time. He relied on us too much and always thought he knew best.”
101Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡL83hp0WBXW
Tres: “To be fair, he just wanted to help us out.”
101Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡDKoSd8kipB
Lilo: “What do you mean?”
101Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡeVu4ObXNa3
Tres: “We didn’t… come from such a prosperous home world.”
101Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡLy1nByCD8v
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.”
101Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡc1OGJt4e67
As he said that, he glared at Tres who embodied that stereotype. The youngest spider responded by rolling his eyes.
101Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡazADOMHLP2
Tres: “So to prove our worth, Unos wanted to conquer Earth. Due to XJ9, it’s notorious for being hard to deal with.”
101Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡOwQwNdeKYs
Dos: “He said when we did so, we’d get the respect we deserve and the resources to play to our heart’s content.”
101Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡdpnSTS9juw
Tres: “More resources and better homes for us and the kids.”
101Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡXLjkDwXC1J
Juniper 1: “…Man, now I feel kind of bad.”
101Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡElJyB320ba
Juniper 2: “I don’t.”
101Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡafIbE79gNT
Spongebob: “Doesn’t excuse him for being such a meanie.”
101Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡyPN18LJALH
Lilo: “Yeah, but… I get it, he just wanted a place for his Ohana to belong.”
101Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡxryLaffoZa
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.”
101Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡ80sIeX27hf
Lilo: “I don’t think he’s as bad as Hamsterviel. Maybe he doesn’t have to.”
101Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡ4cAgwYIuXK
Danny: “Maybe, but we shouldn’t make any decision until Ancilla talks to him.”
101Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡtZ3GKcSDaj
Jimmy: “Good idea. Everyone, get close.”
101Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡy3xBqL79mu
They did so, and Jimmy activated the device to take them back to Ancilla.
101Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡTcE69RbEMm
101Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡ7EPy2XXxJm
Ancilla: “Well, the whole family is here.”
101Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡ6bYWObZbM5
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.
101Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡNCjmrKvOHq
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.
101Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡK1393eSk8A
But before that, it was time to watch this spider family drama come to an end.
101Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡdpg7PTquTG
Unos: “Untie me!”
101Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡmOFuAX08Qk
Spinner: “No can do. You would try something if we did.”
101Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡsvw5bHoi3s
Widow: “Besides, it’s time for you to listen for once.”
101Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡynySoKaDqM
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.
101Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡU24aQ1pzfe
Unos: “So ungrateful! If you all took your jobs more seriously, we would have conquered Earth and made it big by now.”
101Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡ76YCgq3dxA
Tres: “I don’t really care about making it big. I was fine before.”
101Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡESEBf1DTNk
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.”
101Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡsYje4CXXdq
Tres: “Of course you would. No one liked playing that game, you know.”
101Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡENmS3N6aTx
Dos: “Some did; you just didn’t notice.”
101Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡVpVXqnZ62U
Unos: “Enough! You don’t know what’s best for you.”
101Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡpoVeWuWBqO
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.”
101Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡbC3LpxpoX8
Spinner: “I’m relieved to hear Father wasn’t that far gone.”
101Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡavTfBLhP31
Tres: “Don’t worry little buddy, I only care about creating interesting things.”
101Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡG5QTKZ6zk8
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.”
101Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡPFBaI2SN18
Tres: “Yep, so best give up and move on.”
101Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡjzeT7LHXIS
Unos: “No, we can try again! Together, we can defeat them!”
101Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡBvKyAsv7Ks
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.”
101Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡaNTwq5OsO4
Widow: “So instead, we came up with a suitable punishment.”
101Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡxMxpvM299l
Ancilla: “At least, until you decide to change your mind and come back to us.”
101Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡe72eeIHPIl
Unos: “… Never.”
101Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡp6eQXvjMmt
Ancilla: “… So be it. Lilo, you know your universe’s galactic foundation?”
101Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡoaHse8dVmM
Lilo: “Uh, yeah.”
101Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡaOKdcEFcYL
Ancilla: “We’re handing Unos over to them.”
101Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡTlckXvWiXI
Lilo: “Are you sure? He’s… family.”
101Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡpdvyPVD35f
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.”
101Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡyiNG8LQ4Yh
Lilo and Stitch walk up to Unos, who whips his head away from her.
101Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡ0mn3cWtjy5
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.”
101Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡ5gosfyOyHD
Unos: “They’re only saying that because we lost. If we won, they would say it was the right way.”
101Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡanBKJJBBAH
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.”
101Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡITaz3X37no
Unos: “… It was for the greater good.”
101Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡ8Xtu38StXK
Lilo: “It’s never okay to hurt your Ohana. Never.”
101Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡVCbsvHsZui
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?
101Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡj8FWupS0o8
Unos: “… Would you all seriously forgive me… just like that?”
101Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡuNDErhcSA8
Tres: “I don’t know about forgiveness. But if you want to work for it, I’m game.”
101Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡ5se0q3F6KO
Dos: “Same.”
101Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡggUQ7Q4ljP
Spinner: “As long as you don’t do anything like before, I can try forgiving you.”
101Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡklUA20keIF
Widow: “I’ll accept it if Ancilla is the head of the family.”
101Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡHSUkoXRTT2
Ancilla: “Excuse me?”
101Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡ5T7O803FJp
Lilo: “That’s a good idea!”
101Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡO6NU3wJjyT
Ancilla: “I-I don’t think-”
101Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡNAKXcSuj3F
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.”
101Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡ0W8Je152OX
Ancilla: “I… don’t know what to say. I didn’t expect things to turn out like this.”
101Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡj0nY4npAUI
Stitch: “Heegata no feebee.”
101Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡm23HLG94Vg
Lilo: “Like Stitch said, you can do it.”
101Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡL6WzTX6Pti
Ancilla: “Well, if you think so, Lilo. This wouldn’t have been possible without you. Thank you.”
101Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡ60PlMoST7p
Lilo: “Hehehe, thanks.”
101Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡ4eCOhIC0aK
Spongebob and Patrick had to be escorted out due to the amount of tears. They came back when everything settled back down.
101Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡCx7hHe7tAg
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.
101Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡxvi5z5sSQe
Ancilla: “Thank you all again; you have helped bring this family back from the brink and saved your worlds.”
101Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡOhKBEcmx3A
Jimmy: “It was no problem, Ancilla. So, is it all over?”
101Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡ3IfBomNagq
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.”
101Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡ4yemuvJQPl
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.”
101Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡoqT6VabKn1
Ancilla: “Haha, you really are a boy genius.”
101Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡOPsDm70EKk
Dos: “Will you take me to see your little brother?”
101Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡGet1nHqVQW
Tres: “What? You’re leaving us?”
101Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡFL99GKDdi6
Dos: “Worry not, only for a bit. I must defeat his little brother a few times before I can challenge him again at chess.”
101Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡmS9GdkxJ2T
Danny & The Junes: ‘A few!!!?’
101Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡmJysQt5OdM
Jimmy: “Don’t worry, I’ll take you when everyone is safely back home. Ready, guys?!”
101Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡb17d3VL0bN
“Yeah!”
101Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡPF8DoqflrV
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.
101Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡy02fkw1lMD
First was Spongebob and Patrick. They were easy since they were already in their world. He just needed to teleport them outside the factory.
101Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡ2s24ZLEGeO
Spongebob: “See you, guys! It was really fun.”
101Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡq4mX6YFdL1
Patrick: “Yeah, especially all that snow! We gotta do that again.”
101Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡkpdYk4Yj7W
The next was Timmy and his fairies.
101Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡR57lhs9CE7
Jimmy: “Well Turner, it’s been a blast. See you next time.”
101Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡSfpigLgtHE
Timmy: “Sure, but maybe next time let’s hang out when our worlds aren’t in danger.”
101Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡ5jFQk1I9Dw
Jimmy: “I’ll think of something.”
101Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡoc5nTnqbKd
Lilo and Stitch were up next.
101Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡA1dAjEgFwY
Lilo: “Bye everyone, it was nice meeting you all.”
101Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡ8eZ3McIg1N
Stitch: “Yeah, new Achi-Baba!”
101Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡYxCtbqRHwM
Lilo: “I can’t wait to tell Nani, Jumba, and Pleakley about what happened.”
101Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡlCbSGfw6yC
Lilo: “Oh, wait! I almost forgot.”
101Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡsFNXXJJncH
Lilo stopped right before leaving and turned to Juniper 2. She ran up to her and hugged her.
101Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡb2rAnj6ZG8
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.”
101Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡAz3w2B3IDZ
Juniper 2 fought back the tears and hugged Lilo back.
101Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡIHJ18Vlf4Q
Juniper 2: “Thanks Lilo, I really appreciate it.”
101Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡsFPb5h0PYy
After a moment, they separate, and Lilo runs back to Stitch. One more wave goodbye later, and they were gone.
101Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡ1snYyaoHZ1
Next up, Danny. But instead of leaving after saying goodbye, he asks Jimmy for a favor and offers June a choice.
101Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡZvdNnFVP4x
Danny: “June, just in case… you know, you’re welcome in my world.”
101Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡzTgP7BZIR6
Juniper 2: “What?”
101Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡHm7CX12BCI
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.”
101Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡC5xErgryiw
Juniper 1: “Don’t worry about it; I’m sure Ah-Ma will be happy to have two Te Xuan Ze.”
101Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡrCwhv9P7fP
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?”
101Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡCOi7umSN6K
Juniper 2: “… Thanks, Danny.”
101Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡDliLbg6YKX
Danny: “Hey, I’m a hero, it’s what we do.”
101Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡscmRC5UlPc
Danny walks through his portal, leaving Jimmy and the Junes alone.
101Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡxKzSkpo3Yr
Juniper 1: “Ready?”
101Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡSfcndiVS0A
Juniper 2: “Sure, let’s go home.”
101Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡ1RDxaUH7T8
The two entered the portal, and in the next moment, they ar outside in the park. They were finally home.
101Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡCgYXKkWb86
Juniper 1: “It’s good to be back.”
101Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡDc6UT3COQJ
Juniper 2: “I’m surprised the bracelet isn’t going crazy.”
101Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡht58bmoiWR
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.”
101Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡJaZke0Cwrv
Juniper 2: “No problem.”
101Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡJQiVbsKC9a
101Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡiwqFX6x1c8
Ray Ray: “Hahaha, no way! This is so awesome!”
101Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡgBZtOeETlA
Monroe: “Boy, this is the furthest thing from awesome. June, I told you it was a bad idea to enter that place by yourself.”
101Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡWzWIVeYI7T
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.
101Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡR9OfR32rkW
Ray Ray: “But she went on some crazy multiverse adventure. With a talking sponge! Man, I wish I could’ve gone.”
101Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡZDydrLlM8q
Monroe: “Yes, but while they were doing that, Jasmine had to come out of retirement. Again!”
101Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡGP1CoIW5rq
Juniper 1: “I’m sure Lila helped her, and besides, I’m back, and I brought help.”
101Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡLpmZXuktqM
Monroe: “Oh yes, the robot.”
101Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡYRHIy6pfqL
Juniper 2: “Hey! I’m not just some robot.”
101Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡeUUsnobcrm
Monroe: “I… look, I’m sorry. This is going to take some time to get used to. Two Junes…”
101Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡtSF05ic20Q
Juniper 1: “So you accept her?”
101Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡMEvBdzVO5I
Monroe: “I accept she isn’t some evil clone. Not that she can stay here.”
101Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡCQrVSWZc1G
Juniper 1: “What?! Why not?”
101Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡxXsrz7omcx
Monroe: “Because there can only be one Te Xuan Ze.”
101Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡh2ikdxdSkD
Juniper 2: “I knew it.”
101Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡ7iHDz8DKJc
Juniper 1: “But we’re both the Te Xuan Ze! And even if she’s not, we can take turns.”
101Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡinWzcn4oBk
Juniper 2: “Oh yeah! No more bailing on our friends.”
101Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡDtTmHoTxne
Juniper 1: “No more being on the clock 24/7.”
101Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡAUzwKX7HOj
Juniper 2: “No more having to choose between knocking out the next demon of the week or something like a school dance.”
101Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡFdhDl7UUYC
Juniper 2: “We can take breaks every now and then.”
101Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡoxceVmGazR
Ray Ray: “Sounds like a plan to me.”
101Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡKa7cYCTND2
Monroe: “Oh really? And where will you live, June?”
101Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡ9mmGNB4EwJ
Juniper 2: “What do you mean?”
101Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡZ9w5xpskOs
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?”
101Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡTLHiivEtgW
Juniper 1: “S-She can… book a hotel or something.”
101Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡw2OgrAZqtw
Monroe: “With what money, June? Might as well take the deal that Danny fellow gave you. It’s the better option.”
101Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡOvDJnMPi6z
Juniper 2: “But… what about my friends? What about you and Ray Ray? Mom and Dad. Ah-Ma. I… don’t want to leave.”
101Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡaTE2O2Ihra
Ah-Ma: “I’m sorry June, but you can’t stay.”
101Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡAwiTVmqYaf
The Junes: “Ah-Ma!”
101Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡ7XfeYwhHBO
The old woman appears at the door of their room, looking at the two of them with sorrow.
101Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡ0oVIgwdW0s
Ah-Ma: “Never expected to get another granddaughter. Even if she is not really human. But I’m glad you’re both alright.”
101Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡUIuj8OKfsP
Juniper 2: “But… why can’t I stay?”
101Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡSxGR21nB5D
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.”
101Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡp2q7O43Y20
Juniper 1: “How isn’t she the Te Xuan Ze? She’s me!”
101Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡiBHV8cvbRa
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.
101Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡbbvw97YFAl
June 1 feels warm and bright, human.
101Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡzExO6xohcg
June 2 isn’t too different, but her hand is a bit heavier and colder, robot.
101Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡOvHnUPQCFO
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.”
101Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡUN0VUBUSa9
Juniper 2: “No way…”
101Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡWMcHfTqjtD
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?”
101Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡfvflMnY8p8
Ah-Ma: “It’s too dangerous and could draw unwanted attention. Who knows what might happen if the magical world learns of the… multiverse?”
101Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡKveGtSGujn
Monroe: “It’s a madhouse out there as it is.”
101Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡ6unEG6bQgz
Juniper 1: “So what? She’s should just leave, forever?”
101Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡswE5fAL2Gd
Ah-Ma: “Not forever; she can still visit. Just not often enough to draw attention.”
101Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡiZ9tHfr6Wx
Ray Ray: “Well, this sucks.”
101Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡRNeicEazVH
Juniper 2: “You’re telling me.”
101Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡgwTq6JFfJO
Juniper 1: “Ah-Ma, that’s not fair! There has to be another way.”
101Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡR7YRPLSapO
June 1 might not be the one being asked to leave, but she knows how she would feel if she were.
101Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡFvczfl1cQB
Juniper 2: “It’s okay, I… kind of expected it.”

Ah-Ma: “I’m sorry, June. I really am.”
101Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡTOAhfyHBGN
Juniper 2: “Thanks, Ah-Ma.”
101Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡYHoR4gW5Mq
Juniper 1: “So that’s it? Just like that?”
101Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡR2PFUtd0mm
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.”
101Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡbnazfL8ci9
Ah-Man: “Of course.”
101Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡzWvZDley4m
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.
101Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡHd2ARU9377
They sensed something was wrong but couldn’t put their finger on it.
101Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡVDGkjmjf5z
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.
101Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡNGOBTShxGh
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.
101Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡFHhmOMdrtr
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.
101Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡs4NteAOdDR
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.
101Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡiPz6jQunD1
Before long, it was time. They regrouped at the portal.
101Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡ1maaiL3YAf
Juniper 1: “Sorry.”
101Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡxEG4yffu1I
Juniper 2: “Don’t be; I get why I have to go. I’m just glad I could say goodbye to everyone.”
101Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡWlU6oNz7lJ
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.
101Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡ0G9l2qcS6g
Juniper 2: “Haha, I guess.”
101Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡTX3sHLUCib
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.
101Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡadv1SUd7gN
Ray Ray: “See you later, June. We didn’t know each other long, but I’ll miss yah.”
101Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡNcP7oJ8tR1
Juniper 2: “Haha, I’ll miss you too. Don’t give our sister too much trouble, okay?”
101Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡUpQrn8bfvh
Ray Ray: “No promises.”
101Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡPbhRG6iqil
Juniper 2: “What about you, Monroe? Anything you want to say?”
101Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡBa9SQ1Aa5u
Monroe: “No. We’ll see you again. You won’t get tears out of me.”
101Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡ6t1ImzS1aK
Juniper 2: “Haha, alright.”
101Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡJKwWou3WKR
She says as she pats his head.
101Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡl8MAEbLgLf
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.
101Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡrV28iqvXRW
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.
101Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡaE440nY8mh
Juniper 2: “See you later, Ah-Ma.”
101Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡOnDuXR7mwb
Ah-Ma: “Later, kiddo. Remember, you are still welcome back here. This is not goodbye.”
101Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡYNSJkzmWOM
Juniper 2: “… I know.”
101Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡqN2XrN9uLU
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.
101Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡWoDth3wa9b
Jimmy: “Sorry it didn’t work out.”
101Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡ6f4lByS3pX
Juniper 2: “It’s fine; I expected it.”
101Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡrQWyGQqB0s
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.
101Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡffopkxARNW
As for June, she entered Danny’s world and met him at the still-wreaked Nasty Burger.
101Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡDaLzp2JpcR
Juniper 2: “So, where are you going to take me?”
101Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡgLRYlgrcIW
Danny: “New York. Don’t worry, Tucker knows a friend who knows a friend who can arrange a ride for you.”
101Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡLm9H0I76y5
Juniper 2: “That’s… suspicious.”
101Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡ9hOZ8IFXfV
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.”
101Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡkSBhOhO7cl
Juniper 2: “You have a lot of friends.”
101Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡosO93O75SI
Danny: “Eeh, being ghost boy has its perks.”
101Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡ8MheBnPU9B
Juniper 2: “Well, okay, if you’re sure.”
101Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡEWBa4uU8xU
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!?
101Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡ1BFRxak16D
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.
101Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡOur0Zfs9xl
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.
101Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡOwnIp2lyIt
She wasn’t in her world anymore.
101Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡ16CgC0LGJN
She wasn’t the Te Xuan Ze.
101Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡ2OV5Gi1Lir
She had no friends here.
101Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡCvL9eaBHNu
Ray Ray and Moroe weren’t here.
101Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡUPG3rScWDW
Ah-Ma wasn’t here.
101Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡKSPrzvn3fY
She was… alone.
101Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡ5wbWjHAeLE
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.
101Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡgKPQcPMhcO
This was not fair! She didn’t ask to be like this! Why must she give up everything!?
101Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡMl8zt5LUEn
A dark thought then slithered into her mind.
101Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡM1KBEXcTib
Juniper: ‘Maybe I should have taken her place…’
101Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡ2PlCpCQuB7
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.
101Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡK9sz4t5RJH
Juniper: “This is worse than when I learned I couldn’t leave Orchid Bay.”
101Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡIu8cZgeQ0H
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.
101Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡJR1bDkEqkO
Maybe… she could even make new friends. She already did with Danny and the others.
101Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡ3vcIFttOD2
She closes her eyes and focuses on the bright side.
101Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡlrUmyljbrU
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.”
101Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡIzmxHFoTbK
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.
101Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡFXVyycxMKF
She looks down at the paper directions Danny gave her and then back up at the building.
101Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡNzNNO5QxNo
Juniper: “Really, this is the place? Where this Luong Lao Shi is?”
101Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡDwRz63Zyse
She sighs, places the directions in her pocket, and prepares for her new life in this world.
101Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡ2LwLcGKcmR
To Be Continued
101Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡ8gYzFFRYtF
101Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡCydwQbnWPB
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.
101Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡfAywCjJmst
Now, you might be wondering why I did what I did with June. Here are my reasons:
101Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡjjxcy58Q8e
- Helps increase the chances for crossovers.
101Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡqqFHNdwGpV
- Interesting scenario and allows for interesting and impactful storylines for the future.
101Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡDiNoeE6CQF
- Allows me to expand on a plot thread left hanging by the show. No spoilers.
101Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡSp4ROXi98A
- The obvious and popular crossover duo of Jake and Juniper is now easily achieved.
101Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡ9RSPiieJjz
- Makes this story less straightforward, more memorable, and important in the long run.
101Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡdfKnoS4oFN
- 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.
101Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡ15itzzXzkZ
I hope those reasons are good enough for those that weren’t fully sold on the idea. Till next time.
