Special Edition

Headnote: This fanfic is specially edited for children ages 7 to adult, and it's going to have a TV-Y7-FV-rating. Also, I assume that the reader has familiarity with the characters and the locales to make the introductions unnecessary. Last, but far from least, I edited a few pictures and some lines to make it seem less intense and less profaine. I even edited out a few scenes.

Prologue

(Opening Scene: The Townsville skyline in the middle of the day.)

Narrator: The city of Townsville...

(Zip pan to the Serengeti of Africa.)

GREY DeLISLE: MEERSNAKESKIN BERKOWITZ

(Cut to black. In a few seconds, the title card shows up...)

Act One

(Fade to the Serengeti, where Timon and Pumbaa are walking and having a conversation. The silhouette mode is turned off.)

Timon: So, Pumbaa, what do you want to do?

Pumbaa: I dunno, Timon. How about you?

Timon: I'm thinking that we should go and play a game of Turtle Tennis.

Pumbaa: (as the time portal shines on them) I'm game. (noticing) Huh? Gosh, Timon, that looks like a beam of blue light.

Timon: It is, Pumbaa.

(Cut to the time portal. Out of that portal come Armadillamingkat, Meersnakeskin, and Warratduck. Cut to a shocked Timon.)

Timon: Holy guacamole! It's deja-vu all over again!

Pumbaa: (voice over) Hakuna Matata, Timon. They look like us, only different.

(Cut to Armadillamingkat, waving.)

Armadillamingkat: Hello, father.

Timon: (surprised) F-F-F-Father?!

(Cut to the three: Timon still is surprised and is face to face with his son. Pumbaa has his jaw dropped.)

Timon: He looks exactly like me, but different.

Armadillamingkat: I do look like you, father. I'm your son, Armadillamingkat.

Timon: (confused) Armand Dillo... Whoever the heck you are. Um... (smiling) Can I call you "Armie"?

Armadillamingkat: Sure, why not? My sister and your daughter Meersnakeskin, my best friend and Pumbaa's son Warratduck, and I are from the future to give you an invitation to a place in America.

Pumbaa: Wow! I have a son, too!

Timon: An invitation? In America? Oh my gosh! This is amazing!

(JRuff, first seen in silhouette, overhears this.)

JRuff: Ahh. That is amazing.

(Back to the group.)

Meersnakeskin: We'll meet you in America. See you 'round, Dad. You too, Pumbaa.

Warratduck: (walking off camera with Meersnakeskin) Yeah. See you 'round, ahuck! (He sounds a bit much like a cross between Steven Jay Blum and Goofy the dippy dog.)

Pumbaa: Cool!

Timon: (running in) Armie, hold it!

(Armadillamingkat stops while he's about to enter back into the portal. His father catches up.)

Armadillamingkat: Yeah, Dad?

Timon: Where will I see you in America?

Armadillamingkat: (entering the portal) In Massachusetts.

(The portal disappears. Cut to Timon and Pumbaa.)

Timon: I better head to the Meerkat colony just in case.

Pumbaa: (while Timon runs off camera) What for?

Timon: (voice over) I'm going to ask Tatiana to come along with us.

Pumbaa: (calling back) Okay.

(Fade to the Townsville skyline at night. The sound of some fighting is heard. Pan up to see colored streams of light going against each other. After a moment, there is an explosion and the Powerpuff Girls and the Rowdyruff Boys are flung backward--they have been fighting each other. Cut to the boys as the time portal shines on them.)

Brick: Holy cow!

(Cut to the girls, who are experiencing the same portal.)

Blossom: No way!

(Cut to the portal. Armadillamingkat jumps out of the portal and easily lands on the asfalt. The boys and the girls descend to the gorund.)

Brick: Who, or what, the heck are you?

Armadillamingkat: I am Armadillamingkat, and I have come from the future to give you six an invitation to a lab in Massachusetts.

Boomer: Okay, Armond... Airno... Uh, can we just call you "Armie"?

Brick: (hitting Boomer) You blockhead!

Boomer: Ow!

Armadillamingkat: Yes. You must join forces if you want to stop the ultimate villian.

(Both Blossom and Brick say their lines at the same time.)

Blossom: Join with him?!

Brick: Join with her?!

Blossom, Brick: No way, Jose!

Armadillamingkat: I know it doesn't sound fun, but you must do it.

(The girls and boys are either confused or nonplussed with his conversation.)

Butch: Well, I don't know. What do you think, girls?

Buttercup: Well, all right. But one question: How do you know we'll join forces?

Armadillamingkat: You'll see. (as the portal returns) Well, I'll be seeing you later, guys.

(He enters the portal, and it disappears a second later. Back to the girls and boys.)

Bubbles, Boomer: Well, now what?

(Fade to Tommy & Dil's backyard, and it is near nightime. They are playing with their light-up football.)

Tommy: Go long, Dylan. (He throws the ball to Dil, who runs farther before catching it.)

Dil: Nice throw, Bro!

(The portal comes in, shining on the Pickles brothers, who are a bit surprised, and Meersnakeskin comes in, wrapping herself around Tommy's arm.)

Dil: (smiling) Cool, a half-breed mongoose/snake.

Meersnakeskin: Yes. I am Meersnakeskin, and I have come here to give you, Tommy, your best friend Chuckie, and your cousin Angelica, invitations. They will be inside of you, and will be presented in a lab in Massachusetts.

Tommy: Woah.

Meersnakeskin: Make sure you tell them.

Tommy: I will.

Meersnakeskin: (as the portal returns) Good. See you there. (She jumps in and it disappears.)

Dil: (gazed) This is the coolest thing ever. Wait'll I tell Mom and Dad.

Tommy: (as his brother walks away) You go on ahead, Dil. I'm going on over to Chuck's house.

(Fade to the exterior of Tasmania. There, Taz is about to get his coconut.)

Taz: All right, then. Here goes nothin'! (He sounds very much like in his Jim Cummings voice.)

(He begins spinning and ramming that tree like a battering ram. The coconut falls from the tree.)

Taz: Yakiti Schmakiti.

(As soon as he begins to drink the milk from the coconut, coming out of its hole, the same portal shines on him, but he takes no notice. Warratduck enters and the portal disappears. Taz looks at him a second later.)

Taz: Time for desert!

Warratduck: Sorry, Taz. I'm not for lunch, ahuck! I'm Warratduck, and I'm here to give you an invitation to Massachusetts.

Taz: To Massachusetts? Well, that's something. Taz gonna tell Mom and Molly where Taz going.

Warratduck: (as the light reappears) See you later, ahuck!

(He walks off camera, and the light fades away a second later.)

Taz: Wow. That's pretty impressive.

(Cut to the interior of the portal, with Armadillamingkat and Meersnakeskin admiring another portal, one outside of this dimension. Warratduck comes through the portal, and it disappears later.)

Armadillamingkat: So, Warratduck, how did it go?

Warratduck: It went fine, ahuck! Who are we going to see next?

Armadillamingkat: I've got my Dragon ring ready so we'll meet that someone.

Meersnakeskin: Who?

Armadillamingkat: (producing the ring from his left index finger) You'll see.

(Close-up of the ring, it is yellow and has seven red stars on it. Cut to a plane, flying in the sky. Inside, Timon and Pumbaa, with Tatiana joining them, are listening to some flight music. Timon begins to glow green.)

Tatiana: (noticing) Are you okay, Timmy?

Timon: (glowing stops) Wha-- What'd you say?

(Cut to a motorboat, and Taz is driving it. He begins to glow blue.)

Taz: (noticing) Woah. Glowy-pretty.

(He, too, stops glowing a second later. Cut to a hunk of dry land, with a white figure, Frieza Cold, falling.)

Frieza: WWWWOOOOAAAAHHHH!!!! (thud, now off camera) What the heck? Where am I?

(Zoom in to show him.)

Frieza: One minute I'm fighting that Super-Saiyan, next I end up right here.

Armadillamingkat: (voice over) Exactly.

Frieza: Wha-- Who said that? (His perspective, Armadillamingkat, Meersnakeskin, and Warratduck are in front of him, smiling; they must've wished him away from the fight on Namek with Son-Goku.) AHHHHH! (shocked) Take anything you want, except for my power! I won't call the Icejin police! (confused) Huh?

(A sweat drop comes in, rolling down on his face, and his eyes get shorter. Armadillamingkat hops on to his legs.)

Armadillamingkat: Are you alright, Frieza?

Frieza: Ahh! I'm okay. (confused) Huh? How do you know my name?

(JRuff comes in. The four take no notice.)

Armadillamingkat: I've been watching your every move while you were fighting Son-Goku, even with the battle against Trunks. I, Armadillamingkat, am from the not-too-distant past, which your home planet, Father, or brother doesn't exist yet.

Frieza: (confused) You're from the past?

Armadillamingkat: Duh! Why don't you give up on being an all-time villain and become a superhero like us?

Meersnakeskin: Yeah, Friez, we could sure have you fight on the side of good.

Warratduck: Ahuck! That's right.

Frieza: (thinking) It's going to take a lot of thinking, but I'll do it. (aloud) All right. You got yourself a deal.

Armadillamingkat: (as the portal, off camera reappears, shining on all four of them) Good.

Frieza: (pointing to it) What is that?

Armadillamingkat: Our ride to Massachusetts.

(The four teleport up, and the light disappears a second later. Close-up of JRuff.)

JRuff: Wow. This is so incredible. A bad guy about to go good. What'll they think up next? I'm going to my time.

(Fade to the exterior of the Cal-Corp building in the nighttime.)

THREE DAYS LATER...

(Fade to inside--we see Timon, Pumbaa, Tatiana, Taz, Tommy, Chuckie, Angelica, The Powerpuff Girls, and The Rowdyruff Boys, in a circle, with the scanners in front.)

Scanners: Place your hand on the scanner.

(Everyone does. The scanner scans in a blue color.)

Scanners: DNA matches confirmed... (Cut to each character in turn--they continue in voice overs.) Tommy Pickles, Chuckie Finster, Angelica Pickles, Timon Berkowitz, Pumbaa Smith, Tatiana Dukes, Tasmanian "Taz" Devil, Blossom, Bubbles, Buttercup, Boomer, Brick, Butch... (Back to the circle, and the scanners.) your invitations have been accepted. Welcome to Cal-corp. Your hosts will be here right... about... (as the portal appears on top) now.

(Out of the portal, Armadillamingkat jumps first, followed by Meersnakeskin and Warratduck. Frieza lands face-flat last.)

Girls: (gasping in shock) It can't be!

Boomer: (not surprised) Great.

Brick: (following suit) Just what we need.

Butch: (ditto) More mutants.

Taz: (surprised) Boy, Taz could watch this all day. The return of Warratduck.

Timon: (happy) Armie! Good to see you again! (running to his son) I knew I would see you again. But I forgot to ask you a question.

Armadillamingkat: Meeting first, questions later.

(Cut to an unconsious Frieza, with the girls hovering overhead. Two out of three are not at all happy about this. Bubbles is concerned.)

Blossom: You! What makes you think you'd come here, alien scum?

Buttercup: We're gonna kick your sorry alien behind!

(Frieza quickly regains consiousness, gapes and gasps in fear.)

Frieza: No, no, no, you got it all wrong. I'm now a fr--

Buttercup: (about to punch) Time for talk is over, alien!

Armadillamingkat: No, wait! He's not here to fight us. He's here to help us.

Girls: (confused) Say what?

Frieza: (sighing in relief, with a sweatdrop falling on the right side of his face) That was close.

Armadillamingkat: And for the record, he's now one of the good guys, so he's going to help us fight the ultimate villain.

(Close-up of his face.)

Timon: (voice over) And who would that be, son?

Armadillamingkat: You'll see, dad.

(Fade to black.)

Act Two

(Opening Scene: The exterior of the Cal-Corp Dome, still at nighttime. Inside, Armadillamingkat, Meersnakeskin, and Warratduck are at the center circular part of the floor. Around them, and looking very concerned, are The Powerpuff Girls, The Rowdyruff Boys, Tommy, Chuckie, Angelica, Timon, Pumbaa, Tatiana, Taz, and Frieza. Behind the presentation givers is the same giant screen, which has not yet been turned on.)

Armadillamingkat: Fellow heroes, I have called you all here to let you know that there is a new villain in town. And by rhyming, let me get this show started.

Frieza: We get the picture, Almond dill-o mongoose, or whoever the heck you are.

Armadillamingkat: My name is "Armadillamingkat," Frieza. "Arm-a-dill-a-ming-kat." But for short, you should call me--

Girls, Boys, Timon, Pumbaa, Tatiana: "Armie!"

Timon: We already know your name.

Pumbaa: Hakuna Matata, Armie. Why don't we get with the program and start your rhyming?

Armadillamingkat: With pleasure, Mr. Smith. (clearing throat) Here's a toy you may've known; his silhouette on the screen is shown.

(When he says this, a silhouette of Mr. Friend is shown in vengeance mode. Only his eyes and mouth are not in silhouette.)

Tommy: (nonplussed) Toy?! What toy?

Chuckie: We didn't even start playing with toys since we were in the Second Grade, Armie. (Like Tatiana and Meersnakeskin, he sounds as if voiced by Amy Birnbaum.)

Angelica: Yeah, and I'm thirteen years old.

Tommy, Chuckie: We already know that, Angie.

Timon: You're not making a heck of a bit of sence, son.

Armadillamingkat: First looks can be decieving if you know what I mean; but if the silhouette's off, you'll know what you've seen.

(The cat's out of the bag; Mr. Friend is seen, and he looks exactly the same way that we last seen him in the Rugrats episode, "The Mysterious Mr. Friend." This leaves Tommy, Chuckie, and Angelica confused.)

Tommy: That's who we're up against? But that's Mr. Friend.

Armadillamingkat: However, he may be thrown in a void; or if all else fails, he may be destroyed. Mr. Friend is the ultimate villain; we have to stop him if we're still chillin'. (Mr. Friend is back in silhouette and around him is a giant flame.) I'll take your questions now.

(Cut to Timon.)

Meersnakeskin: (voice over) You may ask now, Dad.

Timon: Armie, why were you born and why am I your father?

Armadillamingkat: I'm glad you asked, Dad. I was born of your leftover mutant DNA.

(Wipe fade to the first flashback from Timon and Pumbaa "Monster Massachusetts", where Timon accidentally turned into what Armadillamingkat looks like. We are inside Dr. Caliostro's laboratory and near his Metamorphitron.)

Timon: I'm ugly and I know it.

Pumbaa: (coming in) Remember what you said? "Beauty is only fur-deep. It's not how you look on the outside that counts; it's what's on the inside," remember?

Timon: (correcting him) I only said that just to make you feel better. It's what's on the outside that counts, and my outside is really ugly.

(At the end of this, Timon raises his arm, and a piece of his pink fur comes out and gently falls to the floor.)

Armadillamingkat: (voice over) A piece of your fur fell to the floor, and that's the first step of my being born. The same thing happened to Mr. Smith when he was a mutant.

(Fade to the second flashback of the episode where Pumbaa, looking like his son, jumps out of the Metamorphitron. On his hair, a piece of it falls gently to the floor.)

Armadillamingkat: (voice over) Ten years later, after Dr. Caliostro built Cal-Corp, he found what was left of your mutant forms.

(Wipe fade to the third flashback, one outside of the episode and this Fanfic. Dr. Caliostro looks at these pieces, along with the green piece of sheded snake skin, and puts them inside his glass jar.)

Armadillamingkat: (voice over) He put these ingredients in seperate pods so he could create us. That was how I, my sister, and my friend, were born.

(Wipe fade back to the present, where Timon and Pumbaa, now looking normal, are surprised about what Armadillamingkat said.)

Timon, Pumbaa: Wow.

Frieza: (voice over) Excuse me, Armie.

(Timon and Pumbaa look to the left at the sound of his voice. Cut to him.)

Frieza: If Dragon Balls weren't created yet, how did you bring me back?

Armadillamingkat: (showing his Dragon Ring) With my Dragon Ring, of course. It has the power of seven Dragon Balls and grants a wish every twenty-four hours. After that time's over, you can make another wish with it.

Frieza: Gee. What'll they think up next?

Armadillamingkat: In the time where you come from, the Dragon Rings don't exist, and were replaced by Dragon Balls.

Frieza: Really?

Tatiana: (voice over) Armie, son...

(Cut to her, pointing to Meersnakeskin and confused.)

Tatiana: Why is she my daughter, and how is she your sister?

Armadillamingkat: (walking to them) Because in the near future you and father will mate.

Meersnakeskin: That's right, Mom.

Tatiana: Well, I suppose it could happen in the near future.

Timon: (coming in) Amazing. It looks like I'm gonna continue my loving you by doing what Armie says.

Tatiana: (blushing) Oh, Timon...

Blossom: (voice over) Can we go now, Armie?

Armadillamingkat: In a few minutes, Blossom.

(Spin fade to the Escape Hatch. Armadillamingkat runs to it, stops, and turns his head.)

Armadillamingkat: Aren't you coming?

(Cut to Frieza, who smiles nervously.)

Frieza: Maybe I'd rather just stay here with Tommy, Chuckie, and Angelica until we're ready.

Armadillamingkat: Fine, but you'll miss out on all the action.

(Cut to the unfortunate Icejin, with the Rowdyruff Boys looking at him, smiling.)

Boomer: That was a bit stupid.

Brick: (hitting Boomer) Don't mind Boomer, Frieza. We'll need you when you're ready.

Butch: Later.

(They fly off. The girls come in, with two out of three looking very suspicious.)

Blossom: Good luck.

Buttercup: Even though we might not like you.

Bubbles: (coming closer to him) See you, Friezy-Wiezy.

(She gives him a kiss on the cheek. The girls later fly off.)

Frieza: (confused) What was that Bubbles gave me?

Tommy: (voice over) A kiss, Frieza. It means to show that-- well, you'll get the idea.

(Cut to each in turn.)

Brick: Let's do it.

Blossom: Here goes.

Butch: I hope we can trust Frieza while he's still in Cal-corp. Let's go.

Timon: (head turned to the left) Ready, Tatiana?

Tatiana: (head turned to the right) You know it, Timmy.

Pumbaa: (in the same mood he felt in when Timon was in love in T&P "Once Upon a Timon") It starts.

Armadillamingkat, Meersnakeskin, Warratduck: Maybe you can't alter the past, but you can change the future.

Chuckie: How will we know you guys are fighting?

(Cut to the whole crew, now near the hatch.)

Armadillamingkat: You can check out the action on the screen.

(They jump into the hatch, one by one. Cut to Tommy and Chuckie.)

Tommy: Why would one toy turn evil, Chuckie?

Chuckie: I dunno, Tommy. Unless... Mr. Friend is what we were afraid of when we were babies, remember?

Angelica: (voice over) You were afraid of Mr. Friend? Get out of here!

Tommy: Quiet, Angie.

Frieza: (voice over) Who is Mr. Friend, and what was he supposed to do?

Tommy: I'm trying to get to that, Frieza, if Angelica would just butt out and let me explain.

(Wipe Fade to a flashback of "The Mysterious Mr. Friend", where Stu launches him for the first time. Didi thinks he's not as much educational as Stu stated.)

Tommy: (voice over) My Dad was a toy builder 10 years ago and he created Mr. Friend from scratch. He's supposed to have a voice chip containing over 200 randomly-accessed phrases, fully-articulated limbs, and a heat-in-motion sensor for tracking potential playmates.

(Fade to another flashback: Tommy and Chuckie introduce themselves to Mr. Friend as babies.)

Tommy: (voice over) Chuckie and I were the first ones to play with him.

Baby Tommy: I'm Tommy, and this is my pal Chuckie. (turning Mr. Friend on) Wanna play with us?

Mr. Friend: You can call me Mr. Friend; You'll never ever be bored again.

(The two unfortunate babies scream as he malfunctions next, and he falls.)

Baby Chuckie: Is it over?

Baby Tommy: Uh... Uh-huh.

Baby Chuckie: What'll we do now?

Baby Tommy: Do you hafta ask?

(Both of them cry when Didi and Stu come into the living room. Stu picks up Mr. Friend.)

Tommy: (voice over) We thought he was broken at first, but the batteries came out of him. We were scared of him when we were babies, but you already know that.

Mr. Friend: A word of caution if you please; Don't kiss the cat when it has fleas.

Tommy: (voice over, as his baby version gasps) My dad thought he would say something fun, but Mr. Friend said words that don't make any sense.

(Fade to another flashback: Tommy's room at night. He yawns in his crib, not knowing that Mr. Friend is near him. Tommy lays his arm on Mr. Friend, and Mr. Friend activates, malfunctioning.

Mr. Friend: Rise and shine you sleepy-head; it's no fun to stay in bed... in bed... in be--

(He trails off into an echo, and Tommy starts crying.)

Tommy: (voice over) He scared me every time of the day I was near him. (as Mr. Friend stops malfunctioning) One night, after he made me cry, my mom came in and picked me up.

(Didi comes into the room. No audio comes from her mouth. Wipe fade to a close up of present-day Tommy.)

Tommy: I'm telling you, Frieza. Mr. Friend is bad news.

(Cut to a confused Frieza.)

Frieza: Clown-looking? Malfunctioning? Bad news? Unlike my brother, Cooler.

(Cut to frame all four, near the screen, showing a battlefield filled with wrecked buildings.)

Chuckie: Worse. And now, he's gone and turned evil.

Angelica: Mr. Friend, evil? Pa-lease. You've gotta be kidding.

Frieza: What if Tommy's not kidding, Angel?

Angelica: (shaking a fist at him) My name is Angelica, Freddie, and Tommy is kidding.

Frieza: (irritated, with flaming eyes) My name is not Freddie, dummy. It's Frieza.

Angelica: (as a drop of sweat rolls down her face) Sorry, sorry, Frieda--I mean Frieza.

Tommy: (angry at both of them) Knock it off! We're in the middle of a conversation, and I don't want a quarrel between a human and a--whatever Frieza is.

Frieza: (smiling and giggling nervously) I'm an Icejin.

Angelica: (also smiling nervously) Sorry, Tommy.

Tommy: And I'm not kidding, Angelica.

Frieza: (sotto voice) Told ya'.

Tommy: Let's see how the gang is doing. (as we zoom in to the screen) Armie, how's it going?

(Cut to Armadillamingkat, Meersnakeskin and Warratduck, wearing eager looks, waiting to fight Mr. Friend.)

Armadillamingkat: It hasn't begun yet. We have to wait before he--

Mr. Friend: (voice over) Hello, kiddies, rise and shine; I'm your friend and you are mine.

Armadillamingkat: (shocked) --comes...

Meersnakeskin: (following suit) ...in...

Warratduck: (ditto) ...sight.

(Cut to the still-smiling toy.)

Mr. Friend: Here's advice that can't be beat; look both ways to cross the street.

(Cut to the not-surprised Powerpuff Girls.)

Buttercup: That's Mr. Friend?

Blossom: He doesn't look scary at all.

Brick: (voice over) They never do, girls.

(Cut back to the interior of the dome, where its inhabitants, except for Angelica, are also not surprised.)

Angelica: See, what did I tell you? Mr. Friend isn't so scary.

Tommy: (now confused) Strange. I thought he'd be more scarier than that.

Frieza: Is that Mr. Friend?! But he's just a funny-looking clown.

(Cut to a now-angry Armadillamingkat, back on the battlefield.)

Armadillamingkat: Don't be so sure, Frieza. Wait'll you see his true vengeance form.

Tommy: (over an off-camera radio) Vengeance form? What vengeance form?

(Cut to Mr. Friend, whose eyes now glow a firey red. He transforms from friendly to vengeful.)

Mr. Friend: (deeper voice) Hey, little pal, it's time to play; this will be your losing day. I'm looking for the one named Tommy Pickles. He ruined my kin.

(Cut to the now shocked inhabitents of the dome. We see the same SD version of Frieza that we've never seen before or since.)

Tommy: *gulp*. Now I know what Armie's talking about.

Angelica: I take that back, Tommy. You weren't kidding afterall.

Chuckie: He's very scary, now.

Frieza: Tell me about it. His new form scares me down to size.

(Cut to the now-shocked Rowdyruff Boys.)

Boomer: Oh...

Brick: ...my...

Butch: ...gosh.

(The Powerpuff Girls are also shocked.)

Blossom: This can't be! This just can't be!

Buttercup: His frown is even tougher than my expression.

Bubbles: (feeling more scared) He's scary!

(Cut to the shocked "Hakuna-Matata" duo and Tatiana.)

Timon: Armie was right. He looks nice at first, but on the inside, he's evil.

Pumbaa: I'd have to agree with you, Timon.

Tatiana: *gulp. Me too.

(Armadillamingkat, Warratduck, and Meersnakeskin are not at all scared, but are ready to battle.)

Armadillamingkat: All right, Mr. Friend. You've got some explaining to do. Why the heck do you want Tommy Pickles?

Warratduck, Meersnakeskin: Yeah!

(Back to Mr. Friend.)

Mr. Friend: I already said that he ruined my kin; but I can see that in my sight, he's not within. So maybe some practice might be fun; with my new science-fiction shooting gun.

(He produces it.)

Mr. Friend: Too bad that you can't defend yourselves; but if you're mindless, I'll put you in my shelves. Your bodies'll be empty when you guys are through; then I will make toys out of you.

(He shoots his lazer. Cut to who he's pointing to, a shocked Timon.)

Mr. Friend: (voice over) Starting with you, you little meerkat; then with the rest of you, how about that?

(Cut to Pumbaa and Tatiana, now totally horrified.)

Pumbaa, Tatiana: Timon!

(They run in to protect him, but take the hit. Timon covers his eyes, and as the light the lazer produces dies down, he uncovers them and is in a state of shock.)

Timon: Pumbaa! Tatiana!

(Cut to show them, who have open, empty eyes, and are lying on the ground--their souls have been taken.)

Timon: (sheding tears) No! It should've been me, not you two. (yelling) MR. FRIEND, YOU MONSTER!

Mr. Friend: (smiling evily) You got lucky that time. Next time, it won't be.

(Cut to an also crying and angry Meersnakeskin.)

Meersnakeskin: What have you done to my mother, you creaton?!

Mr. Friend: I've just taken their souls away. Now that they're mindless, I'm going to turn them into toys; how does that please the girls and boys?

(Cut to a shocked Tommy; we're at the inside of the dome.)

Tommy: No way! How did Mr. Friend do that?

Frieza: (voice over) He took their souls. He takes things seriously, and stealing souls his specialty--

Tommy: Huh?

(Cut to an also-shocked Frieza.)

Frieza: --And there's definately now way that I'm going to allow that!

Angelica: (coming in) Frieza?

Chuckie: (also coming in) Are you alright?

Frieza: (a little irritated) Does it look like I'm alright?!

(Back to the battlefield.)

Mr. Friend: (about to fire his lazer again) Time to do what I should've done a few seconds ago; and when I'm done with Timon, this friendship's gonna blow.

Armadillamingkat: (bursting into tears) FATHER!!!

Meersnakeskin: (following suit) FATHER!!!

Warratduck: (ditto) TIMOOOOON!!!

Timon: (eyes bugging out) AAAAAAAAAAAAHHHHHHHHHHH!!!

(The mutant animals step into protect them, and, like Pumbaa and Tatiana, get hit. Timon shields his eyes like before, and as the light dies down, he unshields them. Again, he's in a state of shock.)

Timon: NOOOOOOOOOOOO!! ARMADILLAMINGKAT!!

(It's not just his son that Timon's worried about. It's also his daughter and Warratduck. Their souls have also been taken. Timon bends his knees in shame over the three mindless mutant animals.)

Timon: (clenshing fists) No matter what happens to the rest of us, I'll bring back your souls, even your parents'!

(Back at the dome, Frieza also feels shamed.)

Frieza: No. That's not fair! ARMADILLAMINGKAAAAAAAAAAAAAT!

(The battlefield. Mr. Friend still holds his lazer.)

Mr. Friend: Five are taken, but just for kicks; add one to it and I'll make it... (his lazer gets ready to charge) ...six!

(Cut to Taz.)

Taz: Timon, Dodge it!

(Pan to a now angry Timon.)

Timon: SHUT UP! It's my turn!

(Cut to Blossom.)

Blossom: I'll protect you!

Brick: (coming in and pushing Blossom aside) No!

(The sound of the lazer's firing is heard. Blossom and Brick wake up.)

Blossom, Brick: (horrified) NOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOO!!

(Sorrowful choral music fills the air. Cut to the inhabitants of the dome, now totally horrified and gasping. In the battlefield, Blossom, Brick, and Taz are in a state of shock. Cut to a puff of smoke, and when it dissolves, we see a blue screen with a black line; part of Bubbles' dress. Cut to Timon, who still has his soul, and shocked. Cut to Bubbles, Buttercup, Butch, and Boomer, whose souls have been taken.)

Blossom: (sheding tears) Bubbles. Buttercup.

Brick: (following suit) Boomer. Butch.

(Inside the dome, Frieza has had enough of this.)

Frieza: (thinking) How dare that soul-stealing toy? (aloud) I'm coming, Bubbles!

Tommy: (as Frieza runs to the escape hatch) Frieza? Where are you going?

Frieza: (jumping in) To save Bubbles' soul.

Tommy: (trying to catch up) Wait, Frieza! There's something you need to know!

(Cut to the exterior of the dome, and Frieza jumps out through a hole. He then runs to the rescue, wearing the same expression he used when fighting Son-Goku in Dragon Ball Z: The Frieza Saga.)

Frieza: (thinking) I'm going out there to fight you, Mr. Friend. And this time, you're the one who's going to lose your soul.

(Fade back to the battlefield: Mr. Friend cackles.)

Mr. Friend: You have yourselves to blame and hate. Your mindless friends are toys to soon be out of date.

(He cackles again. Cut to the four soul-survivors, or soon-to-be soul-capted victims if Frieza doesn't come in time, now wearing horrified expressions. Mr. Friend's shadow looms over them as he cackles still. Fade to black.)

Act Three

(Opening Scene: The battlefield, where Mr. Friend's shadow still looms over the soul-surviving warriors.)

Mr. Friend: (voice over) Now that nine of your team is taken, you will soon see that they will be turned into inanimate toys that'll never talk back... or not. Oh, and I know you're about to have some company.

Blossom: (horrified) H-h-how do you know?

Brick: (ditto) Yeah, what she said!

(Cut to Mr. Friend, who is still smiling evily.)

Mr. Friend: I just know, because I've heard from my future self.

Timon: (thinking) He has talked to himself from the future? That's why Armadillamingkat has come to warn us.

Mr. Friend: I'm going to turn you into toys; what used to be a girl, some animals, and a boy.

Brick: That doesn't even rhyme or make sence!

(Fade to the same puddle of water, which gets run over by one of Frieza's feet. The icejin, still running and wearing the expression of anger, is coming.)

Frieza: (thinking) I'm coming, Bubbles. I now get the reason why you kissed me earlier. It's because of pure love. (aloud) Now it's time for me to return the favor, by fighting Mr. Friend and saving you.

(He takes a leap and raises an arm.)

Frieza: MR. FRIEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEENNNNNNNNNNNND!!!

(Cut to the survivors, now hugging and wearing about-to-be-taken expressions. Taz and Timon open their eyes and glow the same colors they glowed in at Act One.)

Taz: Sounds like Frieza.

Timon: Yeah, it sure does.

Blossom, Brick: Frieza?

Mr. Friend: (smiling, thinking) Perfect. Another toy to add to my collection of the taken.

(Frieza is leaping down, wearing a very angry expression, lands on his feet in front of the four, bends on one knee, and holds his head down.)

Frieza: I have come to you at last, and it's good to see the rest of you safe. (raising head) But it won't be good for Mr. Friend once I take his soul for taking theirs'.

(He stands, glowing red, and clenching fists. Taz and Timon stand with him, still glowing. Blossom and Brick hover over them, wearing vengeful expressions.)

JRuff: (voice over) Holy cow.

(He watches the battle in his location, on his projection screen.)

JRuff: The Icejin, the marsupial, and the meerkat have three powers, that's why they're glowing.

(Cut to the red silhouette of Frieza, with the kanji for fire displaying behind him.)

JRuff: (voice over) Ka, The power of fire.

(Fade to the blue silhouette of Taz, with the kanji for water displaying behind him.)

JRuff: (voice over) Mizu, The power of water.

(Fade to the green silhouette of Timon, with the kanji for earth displaying behind him.)

JRuff: (voice over) And tsuchi, the power of earth.

(Cut to him, still watching the screen.)

JRuff: Posess one, and you should use it well. Weild three, and you should become even powerful.

(Back to the battlefield, with a shocked and shaking Mr. Friend.)

Mr. Friend: Why are you angry?!

(Frieza, Taz, and Timon stop glowing.)

Frieza: (even more angrier) Stupid toy. Soul stealer. This is what you get for taking my friends' souls. Get ready for your soul to be taken Mr. Friend. Take that!

(He raises his arms and prepares to attack the toy, connecting his hands to shoot a giant laser.)

Tommy: (voice over, in the distance) Wait a minute!

(Frieza stops short, groaning in confusion.)

Frieza: (drop of sweat following) Oops.

(Frieza drops his arms in confusion. This version of "Reckless Fire," from ScryEd, starts playing.)

Frieza: (head over sholder) What's going on, Thomas?

(Tommy is not only standing on the same cliff. Chuckie and Angelica have joined him.)

Tommy: There's something you need to know. You shouldn't harm him. Only then would my dad try to rebuild him.

Chuckie: Every villain's got to have a weak spot.

Angelica: It's the battery compartment on his back.

Frieza: (irked) Battery compartment?! What's that got to do with anything?

Tommy: Trust me, Frieza. It's the only way.

Frieza: (long silence for a few seconds, after which knowing Tommy could be right) All right. I'll get right to that.

Tommy: (voice over) And Frieza?

Frieza: Yes Thomas?

Tommy: (giving a thumb up) Listen to Brick.

Frieza: (also giving a thumb up) All right. Here goes notin'.

(Cut to Brick.)

Frieza: (voice over) What's the plan, Brick?

Brick: Okay, Frieza, listen up! In order to get his batteries out, he must me immobilised! Ready? You may save Bubbles' soul! And even the others' souls, too!

Blossom: (voice over) Thank you, Brick. I think he gets it.

(Brick takes a little groan. Pull back to frame Blossom, still hovering with him.)

Blossom: Frieza has a burning desire to save Bubbles and the others.

Brick: Blossom, you're right. Thank you for the lecture.

Frieza: You can count on my saving skills, Brick, and we need to join forces so I'll take those batteries out of him.

Mr. Friend: (voice over) Idiots!

(Cut to the now-ready-to-fight toy, clenching fists.)

Mr. Friend: You honestly think you can defeat me? And Tommy Pickles, you've destroyed my kin, so this will be my revenge! When I get done with these five, I'm taking you, too!

Tommy: Sorry, Mr. Friend, but that's not gonna happen.

Chuckie: Yeah. There's no way you're going to turn Tommy into a toy.

Angelica: That's right. I thought you were a neat toy when I found you.

Mr. Friend: You poor things. Rise and shine, stop, drop and roll; soon it will be enough for me to take your soul.

Frieza: (voice over) You'd better get yourself some new rhymes because yours are not educational. (Cut to him.) Hate to dissapoint you, Mr. Friend; but it looks like this tyrany shall end.

Mr. Friend: That's not educa--

(He gets punched by Timon.)

Timon: This is for my friends and family!

(Taz is next to punch the toy.)

Taz: This is for the girls and boys!

(Frieza lands behind Mr. Friend, now bruised.)

Frieza: And this is for Bubbles!

(He opens the battery compartment and takes the batteries out of him.)

Mr. Friend: YOU'LL PAY BIG TIIIIIIIIIIIIIIIIIIIME!!

(Mr. Friend shrinks back to size and falls. The music ends.)

Tommy: (raising his hands up in the air with joy) Hooray!

Chuckie: Mr. Friend is defeated!

Angelica: It's back to the toy chest for you, you un-grateful toy!

Tommy: Way to go, Frieza! (concerned) Frieza?

(The character in question hangs his head.)

Frieza: (haltingly) I thought...that Mr. Friend...Would give back all of my friends' souls. (raising his head, feeling defeated) But I figured I was wrong.

(The others, except for the All Grown Up Rugrats, hang their heads, too. Cut to each in turn.)

Timon: Pumbaa. Tatiana. Armadillamingkat. Meersnakeskin. Warratduck.

Blossom: Bubbles. Buttercup.

Brick: Boomer. Butch.

Taz: They gave their souls away to save ours.

Tommy: But what about the Dragon Ring?

Chuckie: Yeah. I heard it can grant a wish once every twenty-four hours.

Angelica: Why don't you use it to bring back those who gave up their souls.

Frieza: (voice over) Well, I guess it's worth a while.

Angelica: Yeah.

(The nine orbs, originally coming from Frieza's tears, hover toward the nine mindless warriors, and produce sparkles of light on them. Close-up of Bubbles, who awakens--her soul has been returned.)

Bubbles: (moaning) There's no need to.

(Frieza becomes concerned and confused because of this.)

Frieza: Bubbles. But how?

(The other eight wake up, moaning.)

Timon: (coming in, haltingly) You're...Alright.

Pumbaa: Yes we are.

Tatiana: But this is so sudden.

Armadillamingkat, Meersnakeskin: Even mysterious, mom.

(Blossom and Brick also come in.)

Blossom: But how can this be?

Brick: How'd your souls return?

(Back to Frieza.)

Frieza: (brightening) Alright! This is truly a miracle!

(Cut to the JRuff's lair--the inhabitant has been watching the once-mindless shells get their souls back.)

JRuff: Incredible. Thanks to Frieza's wanting Bubbles back, she got her soul without the Dragon Ring. (walking away) I'll have to congratulate Frieza for that.

(Cut to the rockslide area, where Tommy, Chuckie and Angelica, happy, walk down on to the battlefield.)

Tommy: It's a miracle.

Chuckie: They're okay.

Angelica: I never thought I'd see the day.

(Cut to Frieza's right hand, still holding the batteries--this is his perspective.)

Frieza: For the first time in my life... (Cut to show his face, now full of happiness.) ...I actually did something right for a change. I saved the souls of kind-hearted people.

JRuff: (voice over) Good work, Frieza Cold.

Frieza: (confused) Huh? Who said that?

JRuff: (voice over) Up here.

(Frieza turns his head to the right, looking up. Cut to JRuff.)

JRuff: You came through and switched to the side of good. Thanks to you, the world is safe again.

(Cut to the rest of the group, also looking up in confusion.)

Tommy: Who are you?

(Back to the silhouetted figure.)

JRuff: I'll reveal my identity when the time comes. Right now, you should be congratulating Frieza for saving their souls.

(They turn their heads to Frieza, who then smiles to them.)

Timon: Thanks to you, Frieza, keeping your promise on helping us.

Blossom: And for saving souls of your new friends.

Brick: And for Bubbles.

Frieza: (ditching the batteries away) Weren't nothing, really. (turning around) Well, I guess I better be going home and--

Armadillamingkat: Don't even think about it.

Frieza: (sighing) Okay, what's going on?

Blossom: Since you saved us, you'd probably stay at a new location.

Armadillamingkat: We want your Saiyan adversary, Son-Goku, to think you disappeared.

Frieza: The Saiyan's name is Son-Goku, huh? Well, where do you want me to stay instead?

Blossom: How about the forest?

Frieza: Well, all right.

Bubbles: (coming closer to him, giggling) Oh, Friezy-Wiezy, you're so sweet.

(She gives him a kiss on the cheek like before, and Frieza may feel a bit uneasy at first. After Bubbles flies away, Frieza feels loved and right at home.)

Frieza: (thinking) I think I'm going to like it here.

(Fade to the battlefield at midnight, and King Cold, in silhouette, comes in. He picks up the still battery-less Mr. Friend. He smiles.)

King Cold: So, it seems as if my son has turned over a new leaf. No matter. I may send my minions to find him, but not right now. (putting Mr. Friend out of view) Even though he betrayed me, I cannot fight my son, becasue I love him. Earth has a new powerful and evil being in the universe, and his name is--

(Zoom in to show him in full.)

King Cold: --King Korodo Cold!

(Fade to black.)

Epilogue

(Cut to Blossom, holding the gold-plated medalion with a darker-gold stripe and addressing Frieza--its his perspective of her. This version of "Verdanturf Town," from the Pok�mon Ruby, Sapphire, and Emerald games, comes in.)

Blossom: Please, kneel.

(Cut to Frieza, doing what she says.)

Blossom: (putting the medalion around his neck) Frieza, for saving the souls of my sisters and defeating Mr. Friend, I hereby make you an honorary member of our team.

(She flies back to her sisters. Tommy, Angelica, Timon, Pumbaa, Tatiana, Taz, Armadillamingkat, Meersnakeskin, and Warratduck are wearing their colored-striped sweaters--they, too, have been given the right to become honorary members. The rest, standing and watching the medalion-wearing Icejin, are Chuckie and the Rowdyruff Boys. JRuff is a bit far away and also watching this ceremony.)

Frieza: (normal voice) Thank you. It is an honor to be welcomed into Townsville.

JRuff: (coming closer) Glad to hear it. (The rest turn their eyes toward him.) It's time I revealed my identity. My name is--

(Zoom in to show him in full.)

JRuff: --JRuff. I have witnessed yesterday's battle through a giant flat-screen television, and I made a truly-astonishing discovery. Three of you each contain a power that belongs to an intergalactic legend known as Hail, the ten-thousand-year-old Icejin.

(Cut to each character he states in turn.)

JRuff: (voice over) Timon, you contain Hail's Earth power. Taz, you contain his power of water. And Frieza bears the power of fire.

(Cut back to him.)

JRuff: Use these powers well and wisely. Thank you and good luck.

(He flies away. They watch him go.)

Frieza: There goes a very knowledgeable young man. Thank you, JRuff.

(Fade to the group, now on top of one of Townsville's skyscrapers.)

Armadillamingkat: Well, I think it's time for Meersnakeskin, Warratduck and I to head back to our own time. I guess you can alter the past after all.

(Close-up of him.)

Armadillamingkat: Father, you take care of Mother, okay?

(Timon hugs his son.)

Timon: I will, Armie. Thank you, my son.

(Cut to Pumbaa, who gives his son a hug.)

Pumbaa: You be careful, okay son?

Warratduck: I will, ahuck!

(Tatiana holds her daughter's hand.)

Tatiana: Bye, Meersnakeskin.

Meersnakeskin: It was nice to see you, Mom.

(The blue portal comes in and the three mutant animals jump into it. Tommy, Chuckie, Angelica, the girls, the boys, Frieza, Timon, Pumbaa, Tatiana, and Taz wave goodbye to them. The mutant animals wave back at them as the portal slowly disappears.)

Timon: It was kind of nice for me to know my son.

Pumbaa: And it's good to have my own soul back, Timon.

Blossom: But one question still remains, guys. Will we ever see them again?

(Cut to the exterior of the skyscraper.)

Narrator: I sure hope so. But what you guys don't know is that King Cold has finally come to this time period for his son.

(The background for the Powerpuff end shot comes up.)

Narrator: Let's just hope that the day is saved--

(The girls appear in their secondary poses--the same poses they were in since "Substitute Creature.")

Narrator: --Thanks to the Powerpuff Girls--

(The boys appear in their counterparts' primary poses.)

Narrator: --The Rowdyruff Boys--

(Frieza, Taz and Timon also appear in the girls' primary poses: Frieza in the center, Taz on the left and Timon on the right.)

Narrator: --Timon, Taz, and Frieza! Now's the time to say goodbye; Let's hope you'll again drop by.

(The music ends.)
