Jerma sat in his dorm room, preparing a Twitch stream for his viewers. After some preparations, he finally began the stream.
Hey chat, wanna see this cool trick?
Jerma peeked out the door of his room and shouted for everyone nearby to hear.
METAL THORN!
In a moment’s notice, Ruby and Jenny came running into Jerma’s room in a battle ready stance. Jerma laughs hysterically.
We heard our attack name being called! Is something wrong?
*wiping away tears* Ah shit, hooh... Chat, they've been practicing this thing all last week, every time you call them it's always fucking hilarious.
Wait, so there's no trouble afoot?
Nope, just one of Jerma's silly pranks again.
Aww...
Hey, uh, Jerma? Weren't you supposed to be watching Spider and Crab today?
Huh? Oh yeah, but I had a stream planned today and it clashed with my schedule. So I asked someone in the diner to watch them.
...Who did you ask?
Uh… I’m gonna be honest, I don’t remember. Memory's been slipping a little recently. Pretty sure it was the only guy in the diner, though.
But the only guy in the diner at that point was J- uh oh.
A large tremor interrupts Jenny's realization. Amidst the tremors, a faint cackling could be heard.
AHAHAHAHAHAHAHAHAHAHAHA!!
I’m gonna assume that's a bad thing?
Very bad.
Ruby, Jenny, and Jerma rush outside to find the Joker and the Giant Enemy Duo performing a very humorous dance.
I’m king of the castle! I’m king of the castle!
I’m getting an awful sense of deja vu…
Just then, almost as if this entire sequence of events coincidentally lined up with the current bracket placements, the Add-Ons arrive at the diner.
Woah woah woah… looks like we got a big party over here!
Alright, who’s genius idea was it to give the Giant Enemy Duo to the Joker?
Ruby and Jenny point directly at Jerma.
Oh c'mon, guys!
We gotta do somethin’! We can’t just let them terrorize the diner like that!
I mean, it's more dancing than terrorizing.
It is kinda cute, but these tremors are gonna screw up the whole diner's building structure if we don't stop them.
{Bbt kt bbt kt bbt kt}
(Hey Spider, when do we get to destroy the other buildings?)
{Bt kts bttt kts}
(I don’t know, but the Joker said we’re almost there.)
Alright, we've gotta do something to stop them. Luckily, I have an idea. Ruby, Jenny, the three of us'll distract the big guys and prevent them from destroying the city. Knux and Funky will get that clown off of 'em.
I can help calm 'em down. Just get me up there, somehow.
Roger that!
Alright, let's ride! YEHAH!
The gang approaches this tricky trio with ease, and Dante makes an effort to get their attention.
Well well, if it isn’t the big, the bad, and the ugly!
{Bbt kt bbt kt bbt kt?}
(Which one of us is the ugly?)
Dante, ol' buddy ol' pal!
Woah, slow your roll there. I dunno if we’re supposed to be friends just yet.
What are you on about? We’re the chummiest of chums!
Uh huh, right. Lemme guess, you're takin' your new pets for a walk?
How'd you know? In fact, we’re taking a little dance break. Walking gets far too tiring sometimes. Sometimes you just wanna… let loose! Destruction time, boys!
{Bbt kt bbt kt!} (BREAK EVERYTHING!)
{SCREEEEEEEEEEEEE-} (WOOOHOOOOOO!!)
The giant crustacean begins to chop down a nearby building, but Dante quickly teleports using Trickster and quickly switches to Royal Guard in order to block the attack.
{Bbt kt bbt kt bbt kt?} (Wait, what?)
Er... uncle?
Guys! Now!
How are we supposed to get up there?
You'll see, hold on to your butt!
Funky boosts forward using a spare speed mushroom he had on him. He then uses the ramp of a car carrier trailer to jump off of, and even manages to get a sick backflip in too. Knuckles holds on tightly, then jumps off of the motorcycle at the right time to prepare a mighty punch.
Hope you're hungry, 'cuz here comes a knuckle sandwich!
Now that you mention it, I actually am kind of hu-
Knuckles punches Joker off of his giant living throne, and in comes Ruby and Jenny carrying Jerma to reach the beasts.
Yahooooo!
Ruby propels herself forward by shooting her scythe in the opposite direction and some gravity dust on her disposal. She catches Joker midair and lands safely. Jenny brings Jerma to safety on top of Spider’s head.
Hey, guys...
{Bbt kt bbt kt!} (The human returns!)
{Bb kb t...} (Aw, he’s gonna get mad at us...)
Hey, I’m not mad… Well, actually, I am a little pissed that I left my stream on, but that’s okay. I’m never gonna let that clown freak watch you again.
{Bbt t t brrr…} (Sorry for causing trouble…)
Nah, don't worry about it.
The rest of the gang at the bottom look up at the adorable friendship between Jerma and the Giant Duo. Joker also admires the sight, but does so while tied up in rope.
Aww… isn’t that the sweetest!
They all turn their attention towards the clown prince of crime.
So, uh... water under the bridge, eh?
Haha, no!
The gang (minus Jerma and the Enemy Duo) proceed to beat up the mastermind behind these unfortunate events.
Ack! Oof! My spleen! My kidney! My leg! My other leg!
