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.
121Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡDlTlYDTUyb
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.
121Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡ5VMM5k2c5q
Unos: “Welcome. It seems I get to defeat the strongest of your group. A perfect testing before besting XJ9.”
121Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡ1BpK09jkC5
Juniper: “Hold it buster! I need some answers first.”
121Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡ6ucgRcn3ed
Unos: “Of course, masterpiece.”
121Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡl9NtFj5IqD
Juniper: “Why are you calling me that?”
121Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡjh1zxCIXAQ
Unos smiles before answering.
121Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡoeZiyJbzYn
Unos: “Because you, Juniper Lee, aren’t the real you.”
121Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡ8qOKwq9t20
Both June’s and Danny’s eyes widen as they recall different things.
121Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡuoednq2DC9
June remembers the time she was cloned, and the idea that she may be the clone makes her shiver.
121Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡU6EMfw8T49
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.
121Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡ7BOdqnpMsY
Juniper: “W-What do you mean?”
121Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡOJCbUj3AYs
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.”
121Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡU2rM3Y7FKN
Juniper: “But I remember you capturing me! More than that, I remember my life! I can even eat! Robots don’t eat!”
121Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡyzFiOOcvpC
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.”
121Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡHm1l3KbHRk
June started to shake uncontrollably while her fist tightened beyond the norm. Before long, she erupted with a battle cry and charged Unos.
121Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡPUGOkwsIlj
Danny: “June, wait!”
121Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡTu4yDmCtmB
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.
121Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡ3gVoTNuZqj
Juniper: “He’s lying! You don’t believe him, do you?”
121Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡgcwBSBbZId
Danny: “Doesn’t matter; we still have to take him down. To do that, we need a plan.”
121Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡ7mAMrcgiZX
Juniper: “Drop me on the saucer and give me five minutes.”
121Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡx3otKMPalj
Danny: “I don’t think that’s a good idea.”
121Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡG0ClDwsDNd
Not giving them any time to think, Unos unleashed a barrage of blaster bolts.
121Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡzcaeO7l2xn
Danny: “Whoa!”
121Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡ5Jzlw6AV6m
The ghost boy flew around the room, barely dodging the assault.
121Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡm8Z8FsZUcl
Danny: “Fine, let’s go with your plan. Ready?”
121Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡHg8DTE3Bxm
Juniper: “Ready.”
121Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡIvxUv9RnpX
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.
121Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡbhkKGMgPoY
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.
121Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡui8zWnpTzz
But instead of breaking, it sparked with an electric field.
121Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡmfOsBUk3Fg
June: “GAAAH!”
121Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡrPN0pPUcjo
Danny: “June!”
121Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡiQhblcsPPd
Danny flew into the fray and removed June from the shock treatment.
121Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡWrR3DVTWZk
Juniper: “Ugh… that stung.”
121Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡD0C0C9vlaz
Back in the air, he held her in a princess carry and observed the situation. It wasn’t looking good.
121Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡ8Im664yTUf
Danny: “Okay, maybe we should have brought backup.”
121Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡRVLR2fGxTZ
Unos: “Hahaha! Do you see now, Juniper?”
121Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡkH3hUv3s6Y
Juniper: “What do you mean?”
121Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡjXSEFyhW3W
Unos: “Why, look at your knuckles.”
121Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡS4WURwZqig
She did so and instantly regretted it. Instead of normal bruises, there was torn skin and steel underneath.
121Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡRDqDXMwsxu
Juniper: “No, no, no, no, this can’t be happening.”
121Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡdjzF6nhCsR
Unos: “It is. To prove my point, behold!”
121Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡe9jKidnH4g
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.
121Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡM9QuFyI9kG
Juniper: “No way… I’m… fake?”
121Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡbmwoqI1kQS
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.”
121Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡbWHbJPsqcX
Juniper: “I-”
121Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡQsS708XYw5
Danny: “Juniper, listen to me!”
121Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡN6xaoxnK7m
Juniper: “Huh?”
121Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡ1moPudnWlU
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.”
121Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡMA4YUMu8r2
June thought about it and looked at the real her. She was tempted, really tempted. The implications for her and her family are overwhelming.
121Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡKO8n4Lqz6i
But joining this guy won’t solve anything. Especially since this is all his fault!
121Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡ6q9p2aiukz
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!”
121Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡyG0uesU9mW
Unos: “Eeh, I tried.”
121Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡVh7G0MVhji
And so the dance continued, Danny dodging the blaster fire while looking for a way to beat the mech. Maybe those legs are vulnerable.
121Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡNeit9GLTsR
Danny: “Go for the legs!”
121Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡdV5uyCcHEc
Juniper: “Good idea.”
121Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡjLw6aD95YK
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.
121Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡrCgVY9rGUx
Juniper: “Yeah!”
121Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡk5JEdr8pt8
Unos: “Nice try!”
121Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡdK2pSHMa3K
The legs they just destroyed were replaced quickly after.
121Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡi3loBuTDNJ
Danny: “You got to be kidding me.”
121Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡI7fDHD8hs7
Turrets appeared under the saucer but were blasted to bits before they could fire.
121Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡrD6C9jQ1Pt
Juniper: “Plan C?”
121Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡdljlqjyCXQ
Danny: “Maybe, hang on.”
121Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡdJPu4UiUJj
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.
121Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡ6vA3r4c35A
Danny: “Well, that didn’t work. But you can’t keep that forever.”
121Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡGfhdP6HFcf
He says just as the electrified field lowers. Danny goes to try again but stops when the field comes up again.
121Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡRsxPu4kCMF
June: “GAAH!”
121Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡjzEd83I2ua
Danny: “On no!”
121Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡPTBvQtPyf6
Danny goes around and removes June from the shocking field again. Instead of going into the sky again, he laid her on the ground.
121Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡynK6BQnBtt
June: “Ugh, again!?”
121Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡS1QN0vhSKR
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?”
121Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡcAbzKB8WsP
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.
121Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡULL1Glj90E
But they were never-ending, and they don’t have infinite stamina.
121Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡI3tRUz7HX2
Juniper: “What do we do!?”
121Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡO2xjlKzL5H
Danny: “If we had some extra help, then maybe I could…”
121Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡTa5clDKcJy
That’s when he remembered that there was someone else here.
121Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡ0tU8bOv4vo
Danny: “Hold on, June. I have an idea.”
121Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡksSmuGHp0N
Juniper: “Hurry!”
121Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡk4juGcIu1P
Danny flies away and approaches where the other June is.
121Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡM4dbQJIxZR
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?”
121Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡ11zynpqE3y
Danny: “If the other June is anything like the June I know, then we’ll be fine.”
121Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡ5DwDeln5pr
Unos: “Tch.”
121Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡ2hH7WQWWam
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.
121Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡ7y3Q68bx7t
Danny: “I gotcha you.”
121Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡlH0OKzsUoA
Juniper: “Ugh… what? Where… am I?”
121Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡ5nTNGlfF4s
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.
121Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡNQioZtI0I8
Danny: “We don’t have a lot of time, June.”
121Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡfkQYuRD8wt
Juniper: “Huh? Who are you?”
121Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡyU7qCaaZAO
Danny: “Danny Phantom and I need your help defeating the guy that captured you.”
121Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡVuAeTOFDjh
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.”
121Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡD2jzJyLPmz
Danny: “So you’re willing to help?”
121Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡYOp2gW0Syz
Juniper: “Of course, where are they? Let me at them!”
121Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡlZU6GCqrxp
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.”
121Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡ4Rzc07m84u
Juniper: “Relax pal, I’m the Te Xuan Ze, I’m used to weird.”
121Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡg6RW0tL4rr
121Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡPqlucT1rzi
The June outside was getting tired and increasingly frustrated.
121Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡx7oUkvqwKb
Juniper: “Come out and fight like a man! Or… a spider. Or an alien. Whatever you are, just get out of that mech!”
121Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡ4U5qM2bdaC
Unos: “No thanks, my people aren’t built for such savagery.”
121Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡ4hv194jCev
Juniper: “You want savage?! I’ll give you savage!”
121Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡa6bDbAAgFy
She jumped and kicked out another leg. But before another could come in and replace it, June caught it.
121Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡhebvHVXwHP
Unos: “What are you-”
121Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡUiDgphuXVY
Using more strength than she usually does, June forced the leg to drop into the lava. June quickly backflipped as the saucer tilted awkwardly.
121Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡN8QWUVI29Z
Juniper: “How do you like that?”
121Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡ7OmeLAPOvh
Unos: “Grrr, enough to electrify the whole room.”
121Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡBXLmfHGQXK
Danny: “I don’t think so.”
121Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡrz5P7LslKl
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?
121Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡZxSPEFrUXZ
She drops from the sky right next to her other self.
121Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡhHMW6pk7wu
Juniper 2: “What the-”
121Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡPS6E7ntRsn
Juniper 1: “Explain later, fight now!”
121Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡyoQlJAZd60
Juniper 2: “R-Right, man this is weird.”
121Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡIcxZLTT8P4
Danny: “Get back and cover your ears!”
121Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡtg9DLKMZW4
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.
121Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡ5DTZyc6BrV
Fear.
121Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡj7jSwrRtgr
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.
121Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡjVFlsZOEAc
But such a move has its costs; Danny reverts to his human form.
121Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡxCjdQQUuHh
Danny: “Haha… it’s up to you two now.”
121Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡM2ImrIhIPF
The boy falls from the sky and falls onto the other side of the glass shield, unconscious.
121Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡ5feH3eqUM0
Unos: “N-No!”
121Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡNnp8VFT5v8
Juniper 2: “Now!”
121Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡyn4kZYZI57
The two Junes jump onto the saucer and charge Unos.
121Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡuTJFv7UnuW
Unos: “S-Stay back!”
121Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡ9CqOhXh79G
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.
121Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡXGtc3H9E8c
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.
121Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡJqkJCVXfmC
Feeling the full weight of two Te Xuan Ze, it was too much. Unos was blown back into his cockpit seat, unconscious.
121Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡRkAz7HlMbh
Juniper 2: “Man, that felt good.”
121Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡAAsWABBopI
But before they properly celebrate, June noticed that Danny was slowly slipping off the saucer.
121Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡZrHhR8DWE1
Juniper 2: “Danny!”
121Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡYzHPjkSYTy
She rushed over and slid in just in time to grab his hand.
121Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡ1r00cD6jPo
Juniper 2: “Gotcha.”
121Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡsHl1SL3MHq
Danny: “Haha, good catch. Thanks, June.”
121Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡN1QQRDMVr3
Good job indeed, there was just one problem. Juniper was slipping too.
121Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡg3tS8kkC5y
Juniper 2: “Uh-oh.”
121Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡAVKRO14nAt
Fortunately, there’s another June to grab her leg.
121Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡthcInJLni8
Juniper 1: “Shouldn’t you think before you leap?”
121Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡjfanu3je6P
Juniper 2: “Shut it and pull us up.”
121Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡiITWKDwVtJ
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.
121Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡLFzu7xDi3q
Juniper 1: “So, what do we do with spider face over there?”
121Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡY45xeCCabC
Juniper 2: “He’s not a demon, so we can’t use a banishment spell on him.”
121Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡGiMkh3CvRP
Danny: “He’s an alien; maybe Lilo or Jimmy might know what to do.”
121Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡDPemCTSMBQ
Juniper 1: “Who?”
121Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡYUQpINIv0j
Danny: “Right. Okay, here’s what happened.”
121Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡFcoQssDuvV
121Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡ86GuW8wLqp
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.”
121Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡHPAIlYjlhE
Juniper 2: “That’s what I said!”
121Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡOvvLc5OIsx
Juniper 1: “And you! I don’t even know what to think about you. What are we going to tell Ah-Ma!?”
121Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡtuqgJaO4Pj
Juniper 2: “Nothing.”
121Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡ1TwpBsQrbd
Juniper 1: “Huh?”
121Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡqamfJe4wcJ
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.”
121Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡckFo03G2wh
Juniper 1: “That’s not fair!”
121Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡzryVFoZjMk
Juniper 2: “Huh?”
121Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡBjVfhbbufV
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.”
121Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡdIaoXxmq69
Juniper 2: “I… huh… wow… didn’t expect that.”
121Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡc4IJFVfm0E
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.”
121Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡpSWMkHaspD
Juniper 2: “But… there can be only one Te Xuan Ze.”
121Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡJGcULB6qdZ
Juniper 1: “Well, I think it’s time for an exception. Don’t worry me; I’ll convince Ah-Ma somehow.”
121Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡwFO84t98o2
Juniper 2: “… Thanks.”
121Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡ89lra3CJN5
Danny: “Wow, you guys got over this quick.”
121Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡnHenoiaqyQ
Juniper 1: “Like I said before, I’m used to weird.”
121Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡrZz19C2ybB
Danny: “Haha, I guess you did. Well, if everything is sorted, we should head back.”
121Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡnuhr2XxCn9
Juniper 2: “Right.”
121Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡmoW0leCmw9
June 2 lifted the unconscious Unos and joined the other two as they left through the tube.
121Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡ6dYPcJstPz
121Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡgVIuCEDeO9
Danny: “Huh, where is everyone?”
121Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡ2N9KAUeAvA
Juniper 2: “I guess they’re still dealing with their spiders.”
121Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡSWPpgh22Oi
Danny: “We better give them a hand then. Let’s check on Jimmy first.”
121Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡsUKEa2Yo7U
They did so and the sight awaiting them was shocking.
121Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡ7lFUVy87OD
Dos: “Again! I’ll beat you this time!”
121Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡgXPL9RrH7Z
Jimmy: “If you say so.”
121Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡkiMar9cmMy
Juniper 1: “Are they playing-”
121Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡldf2xWSyHZ
Danny: “Chess? Yes, yes, they are.”
121Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡXUacZDEesk
Juniper 2: “What’s going on here!?”
121Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡG6DH8Kmdhd
Jimmy: “Oh, Danny, June, I’m glad you’re… why are there two of you?”
121Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡsjoeNY2etn
Dos: “One of them is a robot Tres made. Focus.”
121Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡt9bi1uYNX7
Jimmy: “WHAT!?”
121Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡw2B2KUovbz
Danny: “Sort of a long story, we can explain once we get everyone. Are you done?”
121Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡhs4HJlG4OW
Dos: “No, I have only won 12 times to his 20. I must overcome this challenge.”
121Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡrJmO8Bh1M1
Juniper 2: “While we were fighting for our lives, you were playing chess!?”
121Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡ4xqP8i95WE
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.”
121Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡCg947TYWs1
Danny: “But Jimmy, you can’t play with him forever.”
121Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡMc8RoWHcqC
Jimmy: “I won’t have to.”
121Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡIy7vLalg0A
Dos: “W-What? Are you leaving me my nemesis?”
121Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡmYbByzLAZd
Juniper 1: “Hehe, nemesis. He sounds like one of Dennis’ friends.”
121Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡ7NVO2zHEZT
Juniper 2: “I know, right?”
121Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡhFSPI2DQB9
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.”
121Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡUlXw3C57lM
Danny & The Junes: “5 million times!!”
121Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡUuLLXm6fDN
Jimmy: “Surely, that shouldn’t be too hard for you, right?”
121Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡ0S1eCD4YiV
Dos: “Of course not, nemesis. My life span is more than enough for that low number.”
121Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡYY1336zRDe
Danny & The Junes: “LOW!!!!”
121Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡZZ37OWp1NT
Danny: “How long do these guys live?”
121Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡNMP7lERfjI
Juniper 1: “Are you sure they’re not demons pretending to be aliens?”
121Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡC3mrmr8fAx
Jimmy: “Great, follow me, and I’ll introduce you to him after we’re done with stuff here.”
121Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡTa4O682sUQ
Dos: “Great!”
121Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡItA9YaFrqa
The two got up and walked up to the exit tube. On the way, Danny whispered something to Jimmy.
121Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡJ3hoG4fGBv
Danny: “I didn’t know you had a brother.”
121Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡjonttoWJoG
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.”
121Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡoHnTxPxl65
Danny: “Oh… okay.”
121Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡI5SY1KCELX
Danny: ‘Why is Sam the only normal friend I have? And she’s a goth!’
121Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡhlKpD50ns6
121Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡEvzNEdznLx
Juniper 2: “Oh, that’s so not fair.”
121Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡvpT9CNI3IU
The last room they had to go to was the Winter Wonderland. Based on the happy faces, no one had to fight here.
121Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡgQrEVEo84m
Danny: “Yeah, I got nothing.”
121Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡG7ABlmHGwE
Tres: “Oh, you guys done already?”
121Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡq5t1I7s8EZ
Tres was helping Timmy and Wanda turn Cosmo into a snowman.
121Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡsqkDb6zu5Y
Timmy: “Guys, you’re… why are there two Junes?”
121Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡTgt41OOxAc
The Junes: “Later.”
121Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡKg4Wr7O7vo
Lilo and Stitch, seeing that it was almost time to go home, ran to the main group.
121Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡgOvyjCeSD6
Lilo: “Wow, June, you didn’t tell us you had a twin sister.”
121Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡ19qrCJpqwH
The two Junes looked at each other, and the same thought crosses their mind.
121Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡEoJ22UDZ1k
The Junes: ‘Sister, huh? I always did want a sister.’
121Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡ0mNrtaa76N
But knowing it wouldn’t be that simple, they turned back to Lilo and answered.
121Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡx2yqk4F2RA
The Junes: “It’s more complicated than that.”
121Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡv237c9ubAx
SpongeBob: “Danny! Did you and June beat that mean old Unos?”
121Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡa5JKhLPLIT
Danny: “Yep, June got him right here. Jimmy beat Dos with a chess game.”
121Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡvVKYIN7yiP
Dos: “I will have my vengeance soon enough.”
121Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡf3TRLMa4IP
Timmy: “You would win that way. What? Too scared to fight him one-on-one?”
121Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡOPehpIRK6O
Jimmy: “Oh yeah, what about you? You didn’t even fight Tres.”
121Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡjMQhDgI8hz
Timmy: “He was so scared of me, he gave up as soon as he saw me. Right, Tres?”
121Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡx8bySDeqAp
Tres: “Yeah, I’m totally scared of this kid with a silly pink hat. My knees are shaking.”
121Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡzs8rI8O88f
The group shared a warm laugh. Despite the desperate fight Danny and June had, this helped ease the stress that built up.
121Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡ7tHi7dy2aG
Tres: “So, Unos really lost.”
121Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡkTt06FhrUO
Dos: “It was only a matter of time. He relied on us too much and always thought he knew best.”
121Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡ1BKuoKkO98
Tres: “To be fair, he just wanted to help us out.”
121Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡXRuBLZLMvX
Lilo: “What do you mean?”
121Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡKfj5VePQIJ
Tres: “We didn’t… come from such a prosperous home world.”
121Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡRbqivkmzku
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.”
121Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡP2ATSwLa5h
As he said that, he glared at Tres who embodied that stereotype. The youngest spider responded by rolling his eyes.
121Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡK49Yfs910R
Tres: “So to prove our worth, Unos wanted to conquer Earth. Due to XJ9, it’s notorious for being hard to deal with.”
121Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡ1OaOeYPELX
Dos: “He said when we did so, we’d get the respect we deserve and the resources to play to our heart’s content.”
121Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡtcWik5dpn2
Tres: “More resources and better homes for us and the kids.”
121Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡ8Voj4VMAVq
Juniper 1: “…Man, now I feel kind of bad.”
121Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡBtzEqzahlw
Juniper 2: “I don’t.”
121Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡdZiHVvrzDK
Spongebob: “Doesn’t excuse him for being such a meanie.”
121Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡx9WfDWmkj7
Lilo: “Yeah, but… I get it, he just wanted a place for his Ohana to belong.”
121Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡ0Zaa4Dfm3h
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.”
121Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡ7Y08aAM1Ub
Lilo: “I don’t think he’s as bad as Hamsterviel. Maybe he doesn’t have to.”
121Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡPjflXS8eto
Danny: “Maybe, but we shouldn’t make any decision until Ancilla talks to him.”
121Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡLvCBA4b6Tv
Jimmy: “Good idea. Everyone, get close.”
121Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡhQrzd96obE
They did so, and Jimmy activated the device to take them back to Ancilla.
121Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡbqyodQRzUZ
121Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡLXd5q9QVui
Ancilla: “Well, the whole family is here.”
121Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡtfqjVxQejP
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.
121Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡgLh3irabuq
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.
121Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡgWx2VmXiEV
But before that, it was time to watch this spider family drama come to an end.
121Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡGVfwW32eWx
Unos: “Untie me!”
121Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡr2uTqMH11E
Spinner: “No can do. You would try something if we did.”
121Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡmUlfkrPBDJ
Widow: “Besides, it’s time for you to listen for once.”
121Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡjWh5QZqZC0
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.
121Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡk2Bta932LT
Unos: “So ungrateful! If you all took your jobs more seriously, we would have conquered Earth and made it big by now.”
121Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡkiHYz1066j
Tres: “I don’t really care about making it big. I was fine before.”
121Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡRBaYBYbARx
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.”
121Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡaP7EvSDNIR
Tres: “Of course you would. No one liked playing that game, you know.”
121Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡ5fJCI2Bowi
Dos: “Some did; you just didn’t notice.”
121Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡffjSdA3SA6
Unos: “Enough! You don’t know what’s best for you.”
121Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡcr09TYBJH6
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.”
121Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡvGerSjRKUd
Spinner: “I’m relieved to hear Father wasn’t that far gone.”
121Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡGKkq9qIuFY
Tres: “Don’t worry little buddy, I only care about creating interesting things.”
121Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡAqX9uAeWI9
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.”
121Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡxVGcHRdmoI
Tres: “Yep, so best give up and move on.”
121Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡyUDnIcEosH
Unos: “No, we can try again! Together, we can defeat them!”
121Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡxXpWEKWv9w
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.”
121Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡl77mqTwgMv
Widow: “So instead, we came up with a suitable punishment.”
121Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡXfRNFEwXnG
Ancilla: “At least, until you decide to change your mind and come back to us.”
121Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡeOIzq2eT9r
Unos: “… Never.”
121Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡx3vOEgJzYV
Ancilla: “… So be it. Lilo, you know your universe’s galactic foundation?”
121Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡy7RSXf9tVp
Lilo: “Uh, yeah.”
121Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡKQXYPecNnS
Ancilla: “We’re handing Unos over to them.”
121Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡWWIqwQzPzi
Lilo: “Are you sure? He’s… family.”
121Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡN2NkwbOzUT
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.”
121Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡqqSQMM2BMD
Lilo and Stitch walk up to Unos, who whips his head away from her.
121Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡ7SGCVvOulm
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.”
121Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡMZnvLzL17J
Unos: “They’re only saying that because we lost. If we won, they would say it was the right way.”
121Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡHADYnoujfU
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.”
121Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡnsm4cimYby
Unos: “… It was for the greater good.”
121Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡM47QdVTOYt
Lilo: “It’s never okay to hurt your Ohana. Never.”
121Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡdkHxJ6ipFK
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?
121Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡtmIU5aEWtU
Unos: “… Would you all seriously forgive me… just like that?”
121Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡXNoORhmkvg
Tres: “I don’t know about forgiveness. But if you want to work for it, I’m game.”
121Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡ5TlL2RINu4
Dos: “Same.”
121Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡJaPIqjV0qP
Spinner: “As long as you don’t do anything like before, I can try forgiving you.”
121Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡqxdEhcq49W
Widow: “I’ll accept it if Ancilla is the head of the family.”
121Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡRaSmhcOGwM
Ancilla: “Excuse me?”
121Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡJ5uzpi1cSs
Lilo: “That’s a good idea!”
121Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡzu9HhJ69Bx
Ancilla: “I-I don’t think-”
121Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡYM0k7qQ1ei
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.”
121Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡHPx3BuOrgy
Ancilla: “I… don’t know what to say. I didn’t expect things to turn out like this.”
121Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡMymGtLqXOn
Stitch: “Heegata no feebee.”
121Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡ1CZg7bFkJT
Lilo: “Like Stitch said, you can do it.”
121Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡ0zvUrPOUeC
Ancilla: “Well, if you think so, Lilo. This wouldn’t have been possible without you. Thank you.”
121Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡi5zSfEdoz6
Lilo: “Hehehe, thanks.”
121Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡ8jbiyofqRw
Spongebob and Patrick had to be escorted out due to the amount of tears. They came back when everything settled back down.
121Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡ90zPnmgK3z
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.
121Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡgiqEoEzVMY
Ancilla: “Thank you all again; you have helped bring this family back from the brink and saved your worlds.”
121Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡltHwCXmbOf
Jimmy: “It was no problem, Ancilla. So, is it all over?”
121Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡmiggcR06xi
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.”
121Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡm0OZtxMlc5
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.”
121Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡ454u9Yu5ik
Ancilla: “Haha, you really are a boy genius.”
121Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡYGtMfuJnEe
Dos: “Will you take me to see your little brother?”
121Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡRgM9136hsi
Tres: “What? You’re leaving us?”
121Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡGMlQdsbjK6
Dos: “Worry not, only for a bit. I must defeat his little brother a few times before I can challenge him again at chess.”
121Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡVl3AHVuHiR
Danny & The Junes: ‘A few!!!?’
121Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡPzfYhWlshS
Jimmy: “Don’t worry, I’ll take you when everyone is safely back home. Ready, guys?!”
121Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡDcIgqiiQ0o
“Yeah!”
121Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡ9Q0sQcQWP4
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.
121Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡZCRyh7rDeI
First was Spongebob and Patrick. They were easy since they were already in their world. He just needed to teleport them outside the factory.
121Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡDTyy1Pj7bm
Spongebob: “See you, guys! It was really fun.”
121Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡJ5646imy9O
Patrick: “Yeah, especially all that snow! We gotta do that again.”
121Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡhI38s7sr5V
The next was Timmy and his fairies.
121Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡQaqmcNtGqW
Jimmy: “Well Turner, it’s been a blast. See you next time.”
121Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡQlCqhdXdAd
Timmy: “Sure, but maybe next time let’s hang out when our worlds aren’t in danger.”
121Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡBby0Jmhfg7
Jimmy: “I’ll think of something.”
121Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡPsUcvXFktY
Lilo and Stitch were up next.
121Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡfTr1uDev0E
Lilo: “Bye everyone, it was nice meeting you all.”
121Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡtU8CJCL0ti
Stitch: “Yeah, new Achi-Baba!”
121Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡq0RiRZQd3w
Lilo: “I can’t wait to tell Nani, Jumba, and Pleakley about what happened.”
121Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡAnNLZIzZSc
Lilo: “Oh, wait! I almost forgot.”
121Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡRheG4UFALj
Lilo stopped right before leaving and turned to Juniper 2. She ran up to her and hugged her.
121Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡQ1tZdNJOEA
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.”
121Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡMHY4k90bB6
Juniper 2 fought back the tears and hugged Lilo back.
121Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡVDKoKxAK0m
Juniper 2: “Thanks Lilo, I really appreciate it.”
121Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡNjE8UtYCDE
After a moment, they separate, and Lilo runs back to Stitch. One more wave goodbye later, and they were gone.
121Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡxycPpo8kHo
Next up, Danny. But instead of leaving after saying goodbye, he asks Jimmy for a favor and offers June a choice.
121Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡqpfM2BNtJC
Danny: “June, just in case… you know, you’re welcome in my world.”
121Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡ4QWNy3icHt
Juniper 2: “What?”
121Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡWNt9Jwco8O
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.”
121Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡ490CJmwfHj
Juniper 1: “Don’t worry about it; I’m sure Ah-Ma will be happy to have two Te Xuan Ze.”
121Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡEyZWGak7Xr
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?”
121Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡ7MmTF3wp3Z
Juniper 2: “… Thanks, Danny.”
121Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡuIGyiXwCS4
Danny: “Hey, I’m a hero, it’s what we do.”
121Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡAHtywacCTX
Danny walks through his portal, leaving Jimmy and the Junes alone.
121Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡgvZVYHcWHt
Juniper 1: “Ready?”
121Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡ6RE5JVj8r3
Juniper 2: “Sure, let’s go home.”
121Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡUeaiVtDwTo
The two entered the portal, and in the next moment, they ar outside in the park. They were finally home.
121Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡNSBvdUcuXe
Juniper 1: “It’s good to be back.”
121Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡxQP6U33Nj6
Juniper 2: “I’m surprised the bracelet isn’t going crazy.”
121Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡUCtOYr5Lxr
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.”
121Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡEOsYCVfKWQ
Juniper 2: “No problem.”
121Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡ1rSSo5P8eL
121Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡsS8VSQk9do
Ray Ray: “Hahaha, no way! This is so awesome!”
121Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡK0EiN5Pyqt
Monroe: “Boy, this is the furthest thing from awesome. June, I told you it was a bad idea to enter that place by yourself.”
121Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡ2y5Tn56hF8
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.
121Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡW2P2Agxl9e
Ray Ray: “But she went on some crazy multiverse adventure. With a talking sponge! Man, I wish I could’ve gone.”
121Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡVfD1AQrmKN
Monroe: “Yes, but while they were doing that, Jasmine had to come out of retirement. Again!”
121Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡK5lGRMT9j4
Juniper 1: “I’m sure Lila helped her, and besides, I’m back, and I brought help.”
121Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡqWy7UHx0hN
Monroe: “Oh yes, the robot.”
121Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡNEuXk71pGO
Juniper 2: “Hey! I’m not just some robot.”
121Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡQiHN1OiMCd
Monroe: “I… look, I’m sorry. This is going to take some time to get used to. Two Junes…”
121Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡjLzIGbPdj4
Juniper 1: “So you accept her?”
121Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡFfcmoqi2KE
Monroe: “I accept she isn’t some evil clone. Not that she can stay here.”
121Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡD3vIJGgYOT
Juniper 1: “What?! Why not?”
121Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡEmyhGFqfjd
Monroe: “Because there can only be one Te Xuan Ze.”
121Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡjZ7ZHK3tJ0
Juniper 2: “I knew it.”
121Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡXpNgeuL3mS
Juniper 1: “But we’re both the Te Xuan Ze! And even if she’s not, we can take turns.”
121Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡil9pWuSV70
Juniper 2: “Oh yeah! No more bailing on our friends.”
121Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡxaMHR4L8KU
Juniper 1: “No more being on the clock 24/7.”
121Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡTEIzhuzNFN
Juniper 2: “No more having to choose between knocking out the next demon of the week or something like a school dance.”
121Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡZpeR6W6cuj
Juniper 2: “We can take breaks every now and then.”
121Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡNo3VO85RRI
Ray Ray: “Sounds like a plan to me.”
121Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡdW8lMBqi1q
Monroe: “Oh really? And where will you live, June?”
121Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡYUmsGZ2Izp
Juniper 2: “What do you mean?”
121Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡ8LQBm82PL1
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?”
121Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡPZABuyXJD4
Juniper 1: “S-She can… book a hotel or something.”
121Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡQvh5Al4SQP
Monroe: “With what money, June? Might as well take the deal that Danny fellow gave you. It’s the better option.”
121Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡpVSPG67rW2
Juniper 2: “But… what about my friends? What about you and Ray Ray? Mom and Dad. Ah-Ma. I… don’t want to leave.”
121Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡtaAHEv5B4G
Ah-Ma: “I’m sorry June, but you can’t stay.”
121Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡl2sJVhDduA
The Junes: “Ah-Ma!”
121Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡqfLYOoWIxL
The old woman appears at the door of their room, looking at the two of them with sorrow.
121Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡrbC3RdTald
Ah-Ma: “Never expected to get another granddaughter. Even if she is not really human. But I’m glad you’re both alright.”
121Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡ2u5TywP6uI
Juniper 2: “But… why can’t I stay?”
121Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡ9KKevrXqXQ
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.”
121Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡhYWyEDylQ5
Juniper 1: “How isn’t she the Te Xuan Ze? She’s me!”
121Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡZ0Y29mWMqs
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.
121Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡCreLsYRJtX
June 1 feels warm and bright, human.
121Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡYbfXjZRTOA
June 2 isn’t too different, but her hand is a bit heavier and colder, robot.
121Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡEQN7els2bP
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.”
121Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡCbqC9E6TVD
Juniper 2: “No way…”
121Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡC9UiJSEf88
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?”
121Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡBAFjB77HFw
Ah-Ma: “It’s too dangerous and could draw unwanted attention. Who knows what might happen if the magical world learns of the… multiverse?”
121Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡZvLLEM2d22
Monroe: “It’s a madhouse out there as it is.”
121Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡizIulLZDn1
Juniper 1: “So what? She’s should just leave, forever?”
121Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡvJiXe8s8cR
Ah-Ma: “Not forever; she can still visit. Just not often enough to draw attention.”
121Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡRARhcdxCwt
Ray Ray: “Well, this sucks.”
121Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡ9dmCs9aKbQ
Juniper 2: “You’re telling me.”
121Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡtIpIpcepI8
Juniper 1: “Ah-Ma, that’s not fair! There has to be another way.”
121Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡiqhQJWH5zC
June 1 might not be the one being asked to leave, but she knows how she would feel if she were.
121Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡ7WpDFa66Yt
Juniper 2: “It’s okay, I… kind of expected it.”

Ah-Ma: “I’m sorry, June. I really am.”
121Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡnZIqjhSQkR
Juniper 2: “Thanks, Ah-Ma.”
121Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡoA9ndmCMdR
Juniper 1: “So that’s it? Just like that?”
121Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡxjXMRvfFJC
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.”
121Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡ8PwvFNNzZW
Ah-Man: “Of course.”
121Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡ6rycIeEcZ0
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.
121Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡ100pbrdzQB
They sensed something was wrong but couldn’t put their finger on it.
121Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡPyZd4r9n0N
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.
121Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡuLJ0Gzp2iu
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.
121Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡUI5QPUzQgM
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.
121Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡTvJzO8vgZA
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.
121Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡozjBUvDEht
Before long, it was time. They regrouped at the portal.
121Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡ94RIKHdRez
Juniper 1: “Sorry.”
121Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡCWKlipgVLB
Juniper 2: “Don’t be; I get why I have to go. I’m just glad I could say goodbye to everyone.”
121Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡlRYFXS19fj
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.
121Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡAY4K6AXvia
Juniper 2: “Haha, I guess.”
121Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡyD7CwIsgYK
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.
121Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡTdldTYecAK
Ray Ray: “See you later, June. We didn’t know each other long, but I’ll miss yah.”
121Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡIptwv7n5UZ
Juniper 2: “Haha, I’ll miss you too. Don’t give our sister too much trouble, okay?”
121Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡos0Ql3rEvp
Ray Ray: “No promises.”
121Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡ60WRQadMuG
Juniper 2: “What about you, Monroe? Anything you want to say?”
121Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡqtJLkJKspL
Monroe: “No. We’ll see you again. You won’t get tears out of me.”
121Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡUcmQtpdMUT
Juniper 2: “Haha, alright.”
121Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡdtYljNnGix
She says as she pats his head.
121Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡYN6CjO6RJl
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.
121Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡ6aP02YhX4p
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.
121Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡKJliNQrCkO
Juniper 2: “See you later, Ah-Ma.”
121Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡ4qqBlmLc40
Ah-Ma: “Later, kiddo. Remember, you are still welcome back here. This is not goodbye.”
121Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡBZl21G2TNb
Juniper 2: “… I know.”
121Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡJBkfLhsxRl
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.
121Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡu7SlLQzCO0
Jimmy: “Sorry it didn’t work out.”
121Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡK78j4dN1Nw
Juniper 2: “It’s fine; I expected it.”
121Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡ4cuNkIquvg
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.
121Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡPlNM4SIqb4
As for June, she entered Danny’s world and met him at the still-wreaked Nasty Burger.
121Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡl0LuUVMsBS
Juniper 2: “So, where are you going to take me?”
121Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡHXUBk4hg4N
Danny: “New York. Don’t worry, Tucker knows a friend who knows a friend who can arrange a ride for you.”
121Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡXt3r0euQne
Juniper 2: “That’s… suspicious.”
121Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡpkXkQG1ak8
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.”
121Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡCRS2bLYe7u
Juniper 2: “You have a lot of friends.”
121Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡamKDTC4rng
Danny: “Eeh, being ghost boy has its perks.”
121Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡuV1YMYvJCp
Juniper 2: “Well, okay, if you’re sure.”
121Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡKv0C1ZgAoE
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!?
121Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡvuCjVhJ1ax
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.
121Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡnhISd2hzb2
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.
121Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡyI4ODDjywB
She wasn’t in her world anymore.
121Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡGb3Q3KlMlo
She wasn’t the Te Xuan Ze.
121Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡXiQqDY2EOG
She had no friends here.
121Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡhXhvurkB28
Ray Ray and Moroe weren’t here.
121Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡTVnTjkVDM8
Ah-Ma wasn’t here.
121Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡXa5FPOEFLU
She was… alone.
121Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡHtOWVfdUSl
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.
121Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡLHDgcNWF6e
This was not fair! She didn’t ask to be like this! Why must she give up everything!?
121Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡA1rtOxbrRX
A dark thought then slithered into her mind.
121Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡYULnLMxX32
Juniper: ‘Maybe I should have taken her place…’
121Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡKCO9H7pT39
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.
121Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡL70XBEB23y
Juniper: “This is worse than when I learned I couldn’t leave Orchid Bay.”
121Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡVVwAnZPEet
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.
121Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡRwmii8G2ki
Maybe… she could even make new friends. She already did with Danny and the others.
121Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡTKhEZrA8Bf
She closes her eyes and focuses on the bright side.
121Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡs160fvVn4b
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.”
121Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡa9SqkXflRm
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.
121Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡmiJ0gCXsO9
She looks down at the paper directions Danny gave her and then back up at the building.
121Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡpPpPGijEzS
Juniper: “Really, this is the place? Where this Luong Lao Shi is?”
121Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡnZzTKWcZII
She sighs, places the directions in her pocket, and prepares for her new life in this world.
121Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡmDH87mzjwp
To Be Continued
121Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡOR9uEjnoka
121Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡuKbRBSpxSc
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.
121Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡVLMqn3ghCk
Now, you might be wondering why I did what I did with June. Here are my reasons:
121Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡD2gKF3QqMG
- Helps increase the chances for crossovers.
121Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡASGI8y5XTk
- Interesting scenario and allows for interesting and impactful storylines for the future.
121Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡNIJSMNXen8
- Allows me to expand on a plot thread left hanging by the show. No spoilers.
121Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡtnfJuPlvwx
- The obvious and popular crossover duo of Jake and Juniper is now easily achieved.
121Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡAe7UZNAIBk
- Makes this story less straightforward, more memorable, and important in the long run.
121Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡUZS5X4AoXw
- 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.
121Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡvbIFe8rKJ3
I hope those reasons are good enough for those that weren’t fully sold on the idea. Till next time.
