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.
116Please respect copyright.PENANAVWWC0j0SiO
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.
116Please respect copyright.PENANA32yzR05wz5
Unos: “Welcome. It seems I get to defeat the strongest of your group. A perfect testing before besting XJ9.”
116Please respect copyright.PENANA2FpmgwIMxt
Juniper: “Hold it buster! I need some answers first.”
116Please respect copyright.PENANANxWdOLu7G3
Unos: “Of course, masterpiece.”
116Please respect copyright.PENANAyi12teJ4Pr
Juniper: “Why are you calling me that?”
116Please respect copyright.PENANA8kBpT2T1Vi
Unos smiles before answering.
116Please respect copyright.PENANA6wWwHAmd1Q
Unos: “Because you, Juniper Lee, aren’t the real you.”
116Please respect copyright.PENANACq59gCXr7J
Both June’s and Danny’s eyes widen as they recall different things.
116Please respect copyright.PENANAbDoC07yCB0
June remembers the time she was cloned, and the idea that she may be the clone makes her shiver.
116Please respect copyright.PENANAdVCbC0PMtZ
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.
116Please respect copyright.PENANAL6uCQDC1k1
Juniper: “W-What do you mean?”
116Please respect copyright.PENANA1qBOVYMHOK
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.”
116Please respect copyright.PENANAeTFwKK9Mo3
Juniper: “But I remember you capturing me! More than that, I remember my life! I can even eat! Robots don’t eat!”
116Please respect copyright.PENANA8zVjTwSRVk
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.”
116Please respect copyright.PENANAunvDBEeZS7
June started to shake uncontrollably while her fist tightened beyond the norm. Before long, she erupted with a battle cry and charged Unos.
116Please respect copyright.PENANAySsui5B6GZ
Danny: “June, wait!”
116Please respect copyright.PENANAtYgWWOnXzK
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.
116Please respect copyright.PENANAZBa1ZG74TR
Juniper: “He’s lying! You don’t believe him, do you?”
116Please respect copyright.PENANAgSAVbN50DF
Danny: “Doesn’t matter; we still have to take him down. To do that, we need a plan.”
116Please respect copyright.PENANAxGQTR3bobU
Juniper: “Drop me on the saucer and give me five minutes.”
116Please respect copyright.PENANA0bgOTcDA1V
Danny: “I don’t think that’s a good idea.”
116Please respect copyright.PENANAhhUBkE7ks4
Not giving them any time to think, Unos unleashed a barrage of blaster bolts.
116Please respect copyright.PENANAXV1Fu46Sfc
Danny: “Whoa!”
116Please respect copyright.PENANA8ej5Cq6QWD
The ghost boy flew around the room, barely dodging the assault.
116Please respect copyright.PENANA9tfn64SziR
Danny: “Fine, let’s go with your plan. Ready?”
116Please respect copyright.PENANAtpncLHS9Cb
Juniper: “Ready.”
116Please respect copyright.PENANAz3rRSqwWYA
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.
116Please respect copyright.PENANAVxJXauzNuv
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.
116Please respect copyright.PENANApILJas5n9V
But instead of breaking, it sparked with an electric field.
116Please respect copyright.PENANAT7EGrBUN5d
June: “GAAAH!”
116Please respect copyright.PENANAWJs8kL9Lz4
Danny: “June!”
116Please respect copyright.PENANAJMrj7hW0Hs
Danny flew into the fray and removed June from the shock treatment.
116Please respect copyright.PENANAgloEY3ia2y
Juniper: “Ugh… that stung.”
116Please respect copyright.PENANAxjiomW1W6w
Back in the air, he held her in a princess carry and observed the situation. It wasn’t looking good.
116Please respect copyright.PENANAv46Pvk2EZJ
Danny: “Okay, maybe we should have brought backup.”
116Please respect copyright.PENANAk0hVcWnpd0
Unos: “Hahaha! Do you see now, Juniper?”
116Please respect copyright.PENANAWIsFTbOEn5
Juniper: “What do you mean?”
116Please respect copyright.PENANA8iCQvqi73D
Unos: “Why, look at your knuckles.”
116Please respect copyright.PENANAl8mxAHPUZO
She did so and instantly regretted it. Instead of normal bruises, there was torn skin and steel underneath.
116Please respect copyright.PENANA0WK7svenYt
Juniper: “No, no, no, no, this can’t be happening.”
116Please respect copyright.PENANAIpr0VCcDHo
Unos: “It is. To prove my point, behold!”
116Please respect copyright.PENANADMNw15YyRR
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.
116Please respect copyright.PENANAuwovqTZNKM
Juniper: “No way… I’m… fake?”
116Please respect copyright.PENANAkZp9O7Voqf
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.”
116Please respect copyright.PENANAHPnC67dls9
Juniper: “I-”
116Please respect copyright.PENANAwJjx4o2ZsT
Danny: “Juniper, listen to me!”
116Please respect copyright.PENANANmR1jGWxhy
Juniper: “Huh?”
116Please respect copyright.PENANAUhIK6vupYv
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.”
116Please respect copyright.PENANATB5k0jqNAZ
June thought about it and looked at the real her. She was tempted, really tempted. The implications for her and her family are overwhelming.
116Please respect copyright.PENANAkUAJfQclwl
But joining this guy won’t solve anything. Especially since this is all his fault!
116Please respect copyright.PENANA22RSJvATIV
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!”
116Please respect copyright.PENANAvm6KkcRZFW
Unos: “Eeh, I tried.”
116Please respect copyright.PENANAgCWKVB3y5W
And so the dance continued, Danny dodging the blaster fire while looking for a way to beat the mech. Maybe those legs are vulnerable.
116Please respect copyright.PENANAUjygsTUrNQ
Danny: “Go for the legs!”
116Please respect copyright.PENANAAtkxBWx8BQ
Juniper: “Good idea.”
116Please respect copyright.PENANAzmDFTQp8xb
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.
116Please respect copyright.PENANAg54I1PHlwc
Juniper: “Yeah!”
116Please respect copyright.PENANAjBX6zxYe5z
Unos: “Nice try!”
116Please respect copyright.PENANAYf2sA0FVmO
The legs they just destroyed were replaced quickly after.
116Please respect copyright.PENANAPFBqKRVgoB
Danny: “You got to be kidding me.”
116Please respect copyright.PENANANAdsz5jcxg
Turrets appeared under the saucer but were blasted to bits before they could fire.
116Please respect copyright.PENANAIKEPwIu3aD
Juniper: “Plan C?”
116Please respect copyright.PENANARBqIK2QiAJ
Danny: “Maybe, hang on.”
116Please respect copyright.PENANASopA0FPVQU
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.
116Please respect copyright.PENANAtz8tc3Tr9D
Danny: “Well, that didn’t work. But you can’t keep that forever.”
116Please respect copyright.PENANAbdpTvulfDK
He says just as the electrified field lowers. Danny goes to try again but stops when the field comes up again.
116Please respect copyright.PENANAoo4LxnSDV8
June: “GAAH!”
116Please respect copyright.PENANAM1mHOjMUd5
Danny: “On no!”
116Please respect copyright.PENANAy4wPA6xr3B
Danny goes around and removes June from the shocking field again. Instead of going into the sky again, he laid her on the ground.
116Please respect copyright.PENANAUNWDRaAG1J
June: “Ugh, again!?”
116Please respect copyright.PENANAIp8rs1L3zY
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?”
116Please respect copyright.PENANAzQ0rt2gBWZ
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.
116Please respect copyright.PENANAfsNab4F6ra
But they were never-ending, and they don’t have infinite stamina.
116Please respect copyright.PENANAFKh6z94MAx
Juniper: “What do we do!?”
116Please respect copyright.PENANAYBDqydHD9r
Danny: “If we had some extra help, then maybe I could…”
116Please respect copyright.PENANAcM5x2YaKHX
That’s when he remembered that there was someone else here.
116Please respect copyright.PENANATFdo2lT8pV
Danny: “Hold on, June. I have an idea.”
116Please respect copyright.PENANAXlY4q91Iwt
Juniper: “Hurry!”
116Please respect copyright.PENANAkzNxvuKr4S
Danny flies away and approaches where the other June is.
116Please respect copyright.PENANACwBYlwv04G
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?”
116Please respect copyright.PENANAsULMNmKwAz
Danny: “If the other June is anything like the June I know, then we’ll be fine.”
116Please respect copyright.PENANAt9i63V40iE
Unos: “Tch.”
116Please respect copyright.PENANAoYnld6msG1
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.
116Please respect copyright.PENANAo8UAbX4TzQ
Danny: “I gotcha you.”
116Please respect copyright.PENANAnsleLoWqoo
Juniper: “Ugh… what? Where… am I?”
116Please respect copyright.PENANAxFw85RiSld
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.
116Please respect copyright.PENANAxh4Hy2C9ke
Danny: “We don’t have a lot of time, June.”
116Please respect copyright.PENANAYCcj3PBhSi
Juniper: “Huh? Who are you?”
116Please respect copyright.PENANAt6VHQHmKtq
Danny: “Danny Phantom and I need your help defeating the guy that captured you.”
116Please respect copyright.PENANAnV2Z5aaTOK
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.”
116Please respect copyright.PENANAIY0dpznPpU
Danny: “So you’re willing to help?”
116Please respect copyright.PENANAqKk48TCFyN
Juniper: “Of course, where are they? Let me at them!”
116Please respect copyright.PENANA2YFs6r1b4u
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.”
116Please respect copyright.PENANA5Ofdj76TM7
Juniper: “Relax pal, I’m the Te Xuan Ze, I’m used to weird.”
116Please respect copyright.PENANA0fmG9D86dS
116Please respect copyright.PENANAwJJKkx4ur9
The June outside was getting tired and increasingly frustrated.
116Please respect copyright.PENANAlGqSupq5Dw
Juniper: “Come out and fight like a man! Or… a spider. Or an alien. Whatever you are, just get out of that mech!”
116Please respect copyright.PENANAGAoJoRmSuf
Unos: “No thanks, my people aren’t built for such savagery.”
116Please respect copyright.PENANAPTE4WHtXCj
Juniper: “You want savage?! I’ll give you savage!”
116Please respect copyright.PENANALD9lyW2pkB
She jumped and kicked out another leg. But before another could come in and replace it, June caught it.
116Please respect copyright.PENANAzRxkYGkUAo
Unos: “What are you-”
116Please respect copyright.PENANAJ6wP6LvtZu
Using more strength than she usually does, June forced the leg to drop into the lava. June quickly backflipped as the saucer tilted awkwardly.
116Please respect copyright.PENANAsems6KLEl9
Juniper: “How do you like that?”
116Please respect copyright.PENANA6tNYXCpLO4
Unos: “Grrr, enough to electrify the whole room.”
116Please respect copyright.PENANAfzxYnenygh
Danny: “I don’t think so.”
116Please respect copyright.PENANA4vtUjMTRl9
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?
116Please respect copyright.PENANAWAxOfxNWxy
She drops from the sky right next to her other self.
116Please respect copyright.PENANAsjemX1R1nI
Juniper 2: “What the-”
116Please respect copyright.PENANAP2ryRzuUD7
Juniper 1: “Explain later, fight now!”
116Please respect copyright.PENANAfmmIRemqvv
Juniper 2: “R-Right, man this is weird.”
116Please respect copyright.PENANACVmApTlSzJ
Danny: “Get back and cover your ears!”
116Please respect copyright.PENANAMA43FnNknn
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.
116Please respect copyright.PENANAtmkZyrVHUY
Fear.
116Please respect copyright.PENANAUmTgyY9wl8
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.
116Please respect copyright.PENANAHi8QUGPN6R
But such a move has its costs; Danny reverts to his human form.
116Please respect copyright.PENANAzbeffCE2LH
Danny: “Haha… it’s up to you two now.”
116Please respect copyright.PENANAbc3UtuatEe
The boy falls from the sky and falls onto the other side of the glass shield, unconscious.
116Please respect copyright.PENANALReqEoou07
Unos: “N-No!”
116Please respect copyright.PENANAvpnCYch5SW
Juniper 2: “Now!”
116Please respect copyright.PENANAeIwrjmcBVT
The two Junes jump onto the saucer and charge Unos.
116Please respect copyright.PENANAgwj06yvDwW
Unos: “S-Stay back!”
116Please respect copyright.PENANAKmLHqirmXg
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.
116Please respect copyright.PENANAS9lLTRtYRZ
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.
116Please respect copyright.PENANAHVLFxa4bC6
Feeling the full weight of two Te Xuan Ze, it was too much. Unos was blown back into his cockpit seat, unconscious.
116Please respect copyright.PENANAwh6IghtZpV
Juniper 2: “Man, that felt good.”
116Please respect copyright.PENANAhq9iQEUH0O
But before they properly celebrate, June noticed that Danny was slowly slipping off the saucer.
116Please respect copyright.PENANA4xFCfdK3Xn
Juniper 2: “Danny!”
116Please respect copyright.PENANAy3YC41MRFE
She rushed over and slid in just in time to grab his hand.
116Please respect copyright.PENANAFL5WH8fyFN
Juniper 2: “Gotcha.”
116Please respect copyright.PENANALYKoOqXBzu
Danny: “Haha, good catch. Thanks, June.”
116Please respect copyright.PENANAwXoQqVF5kw
Good job indeed, there was just one problem. Juniper was slipping too.
116Please respect copyright.PENANAsOZNspeK5H
Juniper 2: “Uh-oh.”
116Please respect copyright.PENANASYOsShg7sF
Fortunately, there’s another June to grab her leg.
116Please respect copyright.PENANAxwVIwaWDI7
Juniper 1: “Shouldn’t you think before you leap?”
116Please respect copyright.PENANACeFPBdvi9U
Juniper 2: “Shut it and pull us up.”
116Please respect copyright.PENANAaHF0UbCO18
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.
116Please respect copyright.PENANApLkjVftvDZ
Juniper 1: “So, what do we do with spider face over there?”
116Please respect copyright.PENANAxaB4Nid0yj
Juniper 2: “He’s not a demon, so we can’t use a banishment spell on him.”
116Please respect copyright.PENANA6r2vFVoXnO
Danny: “He’s an alien; maybe Lilo or Jimmy might know what to do.”
116Please respect copyright.PENANAsE0tkFqPUz
Juniper 1: “Who?”
116Please respect copyright.PENANACqPUVZOfUx
Danny: “Right. Okay, here’s what happened.”
116Please respect copyright.PENANA3uUUVIfqlQ
116Please respect copyright.PENANA1f8uhBrsL7
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.”
116Please respect copyright.PENANAi88RRfwhk3
Juniper 2: “That’s what I said!”
116Please respect copyright.PENANAMqJWgVFE7U
Juniper 1: “And you! I don’t even know what to think about you. What are we going to tell Ah-Ma!?”
116Please respect copyright.PENANAGWQI9KExFJ
Juniper 2: “Nothing.”
116Please respect copyright.PENANAEfcuVtJXd5
Juniper 1: “Huh?”
116Please respect copyright.PENANAdQdaKZuN1Z
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.”
116Please respect copyright.PENANAgN3JISqA3o
Juniper 1: “That’s not fair!”
116Please respect copyright.PENANA5FEUyKdC0M
Juniper 2: “Huh?”
116Please respect copyright.PENANAjF1eqBU4U5
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.”
116Please respect copyright.PENANAUpyAVHCJZa
Juniper 2: “I… huh… wow… didn’t expect that.”
116Please respect copyright.PENANAxqHYwzoNxb
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.”
116Please respect copyright.PENANAU32IVp7Npp
Juniper 2: “But… there can be only one Te Xuan Ze.”
116Please respect copyright.PENANA0jb9oeOsP1
Juniper 1: “Well, I think it’s time for an exception. Don’t worry me; I’ll convince Ah-Ma somehow.”
116Please respect copyright.PENANAAUBKwuVojl
Juniper 2: “… Thanks.”
116Please respect copyright.PENANAe63Br9O5M7
Danny: “Wow, you guys got over this quick.”
116Please respect copyright.PENANATzjZecwRU6
Juniper 1: “Like I said before, I’m used to weird.”
116Please respect copyright.PENANAWqiwQdGPpZ
Danny: “Haha, I guess you did. Well, if everything is sorted, we should head back.”
116Please respect copyright.PENANA59ti8Y5wZ0
Juniper 2: “Right.”
116Please respect copyright.PENANAcdLI2i02gH
June 2 lifted the unconscious Unos and joined the other two as they left through the tube.
116Please respect copyright.PENANA4OoCv7pSDb
116Please respect copyright.PENANA8NRQRFb2NQ
Danny: “Huh, where is everyone?”
116Please respect copyright.PENANAFja1hC1t4c
Juniper 2: “I guess they’re still dealing with their spiders.”
116Please respect copyright.PENANAd33Zjk76NL
Danny: “We better give them a hand then. Let’s check on Jimmy first.”
116Please respect copyright.PENANAdXk7VVN1yK
They did so and the sight awaiting them was shocking.
116Please respect copyright.PENANAE3zgEHx6PV
Dos: “Again! I’ll beat you this time!”
116Please respect copyright.PENANAsgnjy29DDQ
Jimmy: “If you say so.”
116Please respect copyright.PENANAqh11PqaqbR
Juniper 1: “Are they playing-”
116Please respect copyright.PENANALQSTXhUeZ3
Danny: “Chess? Yes, yes, they are.”
116Please respect copyright.PENANATPYMBGuab5
Juniper 2: “What’s going on here!?”
116Please respect copyright.PENANAfTzLHDCWW6
Jimmy: “Oh, Danny, June, I’m glad you’re… why are there two of you?”
116Please respect copyright.PENANAQJjbpn6hsw
Dos: “One of them is a robot Tres made. Focus.”
116Please respect copyright.PENANAD8JRQRhHi2
Jimmy: “WHAT!?”
116Please respect copyright.PENANA2YF0sUY0YD
Danny: “Sort of a long story, we can explain once we get everyone. Are you done?”
116Please respect copyright.PENANAr3w2SUOC6m
Dos: “No, I have only won 12 times to his 20. I must overcome this challenge.”
116Please respect copyright.PENANAtSlLweV5BQ
Juniper 2: “While we were fighting for our lives, you were playing chess!?”
116Please respect copyright.PENANALYY3hJl5lq
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.”
116Please respect copyright.PENANAB7AoK6pJoP
Danny: “But Jimmy, you can’t play with him forever.”
116Please respect copyright.PENANAInexHXGHPh
Jimmy: “I won’t have to.”
116Please respect copyright.PENANArCRROq0c2S
Dos: “W-What? Are you leaving me my nemesis?”
116Please respect copyright.PENANAHHVDF3iHVf
Juniper 1: “Hehe, nemesis. He sounds like one of Dennis’ friends.”
116Please respect copyright.PENANArgy9XaoXTy
Juniper 2: “I know, right?”
116Please respect copyright.PENANAZKLthuMDJw
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.”
116Please respect copyright.PENANA1zi4PdX4sT
Danny & The Junes: “5 million times!!”
116Please respect copyright.PENANA5Tmm12ZmcD
Jimmy: “Surely, that shouldn’t be too hard for you, right?”
116Please respect copyright.PENANAlLSTWjARpu
Dos: “Of course not, nemesis. My life span is more than enough for that low number.”
116Please respect copyright.PENANAZkQN8nUTyW
Danny & The Junes: “LOW!!!!”
116Please respect copyright.PENANA6yF9tTccw0
Danny: “How long do these guys live?”
116Please respect copyright.PENANAMZUBVlouvU
Juniper 1: “Are you sure they’re not demons pretending to be aliens?”
116Please respect copyright.PENANAD7qhkfOIcN
Jimmy: “Great, follow me, and I’ll introduce you to him after we’re done with stuff here.”
116Please respect copyright.PENANAdHVLhXCBqf
Dos: “Great!”
116Please respect copyright.PENANAHKw3gqn9Ik
The two got up and walked up to the exit tube. On the way, Danny whispered something to Jimmy.
116Please respect copyright.PENANAr4WTqIurwF
Danny: “I didn’t know you had a brother.”
116Please respect copyright.PENANAXIcK0uYVWN
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.”
116Please respect copyright.PENANA965Yfv6fSy
Danny: “Oh… okay.”
116Please respect copyright.PENANAhyiPw81Led
Danny: ‘Why is Sam the only normal friend I have? And she’s a goth!’
116Please respect copyright.PENANAt6M2hia7ER
116Please respect copyright.PENANAfcZknGhzOd
Juniper 2: “Oh, that’s so not fair.”
116Please respect copyright.PENANAJFcpxd3poX
The last room they had to go to was the Winter Wonderland. Based on the happy faces, no one had to fight here.
116Please respect copyright.PENANA8gM8fmjcXm
Danny: “Yeah, I got nothing.”
116Please respect copyright.PENANAySGqMazY9t
Tres: “Oh, you guys done already?”
116Please respect copyright.PENANAywbcksT7fg
Tres was helping Timmy and Wanda turn Cosmo into a snowman.
116Please respect copyright.PENANAXUwwNEaAbL
Timmy: “Guys, you’re… why are there two Junes?”
116Please respect copyright.PENANA2jv1huGt3O
The Junes: “Later.”
116Please respect copyright.PENANAZgWV5pQhd0
Lilo and Stitch, seeing that it was almost time to go home, ran to the main group.
116Please respect copyright.PENANAsVQ9yUHMxq
Lilo: “Wow, June, you didn’t tell us you had a twin sister.”
116Please respect copyright.PENANAm0VWmhwpSR
The two Junes looked at each other, and the same thought crosses their mind.
116Please respect copyright.PENANA9CqViYdV47
The Junes: ‘Sister, huh? I always did want a sister.’
116Please respect copyright.PENANA0tzCTfqiOS
But knowing it wouldn’t be that simple, they turned back to Lilo and answered.
116Please respect copyright.PENANAcHJPe1kiSw
The Junes: “It’s more complicated than that.”
116Please respect copyright.PENANAjdnZIXipdZ
SpongeBob: “Danny! Did you and June beat that mean old Unos?”
116Please respect copyright.PENANABPZ92M1egQ
Danny: “Yep, June got him right here. Jimmy beat Dos with a chess game.”
116Please respect copyright.PENANAnSewnhqTi8
Dos: “I will have my vengeance soon enough.”
116Please respect copyright.PENANAGbTM1DeU1V
Timmy: “You would win that way. What? Too scared to fight him one-on-one?”
116Please respect copyright.PENANA49RM5Vgx7x
Jimmy: “Oh yeah, what about you? You didn’t even fight Tres.”
116Please respect copyright.PENANAnoxv31uHFQ
Timmy: “He was so scared of me, he gave up as soon as he saw me. Right, Tres?”
116Please respect copyright.PENANAxzE6U541Lx
Tres: “Yeah, I’m totally scared of this kid with a silly pink hat. My knees are shaking.”
116Please respect copyright.PENANAap13Jr6gzZ
The group shared a warm laugh. Despite the desperate fight Danny and June had, this helped ease the stress that built up.
116Please respect copyright.PENANA5NKRYOUdCk
Tres: “So, Unos really lost.”
116Please respect copyright.PENANAUhYDEuLVvx
Dos: “It was only a matter of time. He relied on us too much and always thought he knew best.”
116Please respect copyright.PENANAKywTRAmQo6
Tres: “To be fair, he just wanted to help us out.”
116Please respect copyright.PENANAFHhC3nSkVy
Lilo: “What do you mean?”
116Please respect copyright.PENANAz4BwaEzBk7
Tres: “We didn’t… come from such a prosperous home world.”
116Please respect copyright.PENANAPu8uq4xLNN
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.”
116Please respect copyright.PENANAENYAuZLaEA
As he said that, he glared at Tres who embodied that stereotype. The youngest spider responded by rolling his eyes.
116Please respect copyright.PENANALnZdl79MOa
Tres: “So to prove our worth, Unos wanted to conquer Earth. Due to XJ9, it’s notorious for being hard to deal with.”
116Please respect copyright.PENANAvyp59sLYB3
Dos: “He said when we did so, we’d get the respect we deserve and the resources to play to our heart’s content.”
116Please respect copyright.PENANAFZT13DHiRM
Tres: “More resources and better homes for us and the kids.”
116Please respect copyright.PENANAhYinnKY3F6
Juniper 1: “…Man, now I feel kind of bad.”
116Please respect copyright.PENANAixei9THQ1e
Juniper 2: “I don’t.”
116Please respect copyright.PENANAU1ZMGGFfU1
Spongebob: “Doesn’t excuse him for being such a meanie.”
116Please respect copyright.PENANATEhfWuKIUV
Lilo: “Yeah, but… I get it, he just wanted a place for his Ohana to belong.”
116Please respect copyright.PENANANtRLMBL7K1
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.”
116Please respect copyright.PENANAWHYDaaUt90
Lilo: “I don’t think he’s as bad as Hamsterviel. Maybe he doesn’t have to.”
116Please respect copyright.PENANAzQL2FtTxeL
Danny: “Maybe, but we shouldn’t make any decision until Ancilla talks to him.”
116Please respect copyright.PENANAICBQP4xbwj
Jimmy: “Good idea. Everyone, get close.”
116Please respect copyright.PENANAr4hAWH6tdv
They did so, and Jimmy activated the device to take them back to Ancilla.
116Please respect copyright.PENANANpD9f4Lz3J
116Please respect copyright.PENANAMBlqN746wC
Ancilla: “Well, the whole family is here.”
116Please respect copyright.PENANAIV6cg4H5ii
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.
116Please respect copyright.PENANAGqdo03r9AU
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.
116Please respect copyright.PENANAz4B0D2214O
But before that, it was time to watch this spider family drama come to an end.
116Please respect copyright.PENANA0Br4PoKvo8
Unos: “Untie me!”
116Please respect copyright.PENANA0L2FVdcljd
Spinner: “No can do. You would try something if we did.”
116Please respect copyright.PENANASsCsvCqdnf
Widow: “Besides, it’s time for you to listen for once.”
116Please respect copyright.PENANAfXk4JyBztJ
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.
116Please respect copyright.PENANAPrckGripwH
Unos: “So ungrateful! If you all took your jobs more seriously, we would have conquered Earth and made it big by now.”
116Please respect copyright.PENANA3LMZdfJWE3
Tres: “I don’t really care about making it big. I was fine before.”
116Please respect copyright.PENANATP07Fwmmhx
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.”
116Please respect copyright.PENANAI9dYdDTznO
Tres: “Of course you would. No one liked playing that game, you know.”
116Please respect copyright.PENANAQw3j7Gblqo
Dos: “Some did; you just didn’t notice.”
116Please respect copyright.PENANARosw89tw6V
Unos: “Enough! You don’t know what’s best for you.”
116Please respect copyright.PENANAbzkoJJE9FH
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.”
116Please respect copyright.PENANAGwyOccFv5D
Spinner: “I’m relieved to hear Father wasn’t that far gone.”
116Please respect copyright.PENANADr6g8tvn8R
Tres: “Don’t worry little buddy, I only care about creating interesting things.”
116Please respect copyright.PENANAqgDWxI1wx7
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.”
116Please respect copyright.PENANANX8VpUCF8w
Tres: “Yep, so best give up and move on.”
116Please respect copyright.PENANAaKGV5hg9vi
Unos: “No, we can try again! Together, we can defeat them!”
116Please respect copyright.PENANAqmFjp70PmC
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.”
116Please respect copyright.PENANAFkgkhxjfTn
Widow: “So instead, we came up with a suitable punishment.”
116Please respect copyright.PENANAWxp4m32RlT
Ancilla: “At least, until you decide to change your mind and come back to us.”
116Please respect copyright.PENANABWqtsJfJfR
Unos: “… Never.”
116Please respect copyright.PENANAjyw4izmzkr
Ancilla: “… So be it. Lilo, you know your universe’s galactic foundation?”
116Please respect copyright.PENANAXrwxbMseHE
Lilo: “Uh, yeah.”
116Please respect copyright.PENANA9F54XFr8w8
Ancilla: “We’re handing Unos over to them.”
116Please respect copyright.PENANAxqYyi7ZhF9
Lilo: “Are you sure? He’s… family.”
116Please respect copyright.PENANAoJXB1rdpcs
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.”
116Please respect copyright.PENANARst1mdGMwn
Lilo and Stitch walk up to Unos, who whips his head away from her.
116Please respect copyright.PENANAQMocuYlmXt
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.”
116Please respect copyright.PENANAyQKVK3Xynw
Unos: “They’re only saying that because we lost. If we won, they would say it was the right way.”
116Please respect copyright.PENANAXDpgFtRKbM
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.”
116Please respect copyright.PENANA2tt6CzGCDk
Unos: “… It was for the greater good.”
116Please respect copyright.PENANA2OuTtt700n
Lilo: “It’s never okay to hurt your Ohana. Never.”
116Please respect copyright.PENANA6IBbuyaVdB
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?
116Please respect copyright.PENANAZEqRR5sWqm
Unos: “… Would you all seriously forgive me… just like that?”
116Please respect copyright.PENANA5NDSHTM2HO
Tres: “I don’t know about forgiveness. But if you want to work for it, I’m game.”
116Please respect copyright.PENANAGwRTMQGpbx
Dos: “Same.”
116Please respect copyright.PENANAPzpSKw3aX6
Spinner: “As long as you don’t do anything like before, I can try forgiving you.”
116Please respect copyright.PENANAUclbv2In0P
Widow: “I’ll accept it if Ancilla is the head of the family.”
116Please respect copyright.PENANACVLzGRI5p2
Ancilla: “Excuse me?”
116Please respect copyright.PENANAPqCeM7GGxE
Lilo: “That’s a good idea!”
116Please respect copyright.PENANAzxa8I2bKA5
Ancilla: “I-I don’t think-”
116Please respect copyright.PENANAkQT9PHTL5O
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.”
116Please respect copyright.PENANAXet8vT0LFJ
Ancilla: “I… don’t know what to say. I didn’t expect things to turn out like this.”
116Please respect copyright.PENANAAPysrxAqef
Stitch: “Heegata no feebee.”
116Please respect copyright.PENANA0VpfCqc0sW
Lilo: “Like Stitch said, you can do it.”
116Please respect copyright.PENANABEmFdbwAY4
Ancilla: “Well, if you think so, Lilo. This wouldn’t have been possible without you. Thank you.”
116Please respect copyright.PENANAAREgEnHYOn
Lilo: “Hehehe, thanks.”
116Please respect copyright.PENANAjwoQpOt59K
Spongebob and Patrick had to be escorted out due to the amount of tears. They came back when everything settled back down.
116Please respect copyright.PENANAOsOmdF2Dzm
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.
116Please respect copyright.PENANAFYER2FzPpj
Ancilla: “Thank you all again; you have helped bring this family back from the brink and saved your worlds.”
116Please respect copyright.PENANAe29ctUQVL1
Jimmy: “It was no problem, Ancilla. So, is it all over?”
116Please respect copyright.PENANAFEe34WrmCq
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.”
116Please respect copyright.PENANA6TUZFWJnvh
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.”
116Please respect copyright.PENANAhZsDDuUprY
Ancilla: “Haha, you really are a boy genius.”
116Please respect copyright.PENANAStqiEJHXTV
Dos: “Will you take me to see your little brother?”
116Please respect copyright.PENANA1O3bUdlXlE
Tres: “What? You’re leaving us?”
116Please respect copyright.PENANAZNpxuRfNaI
Dos: “Worry not, only for a bit. I must defeat his little brother a few times before I can challenge him again at chess.”
116Please respect copyright.PENANAOamoZqZ1XU
Danny & The Junes: ‘A few!!!?’
116Please respect copyright.PENANACGbTUAlsAN
Jimmy: “Don’t worry, I’ll take you when everyone is safely back home. Ready, guys?!”
116Please respect copyright.PENANAezZOvnfQ8a
“Yeah!”
116Please respect copyright.PENANAad7uBszmgA
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.
116Please respect copyright.PENANAOpxZ4n033d
First was Spongebob and Patrick. They were easy since they were already in their world. He just needed to teleport them outside the factory.
116Please respect copyright.PENANAhfHORy6xCk
Spongebob: “See you, guys! It was really fun.”
116Please respect copyright.PENANAt6R8GhDBA9
Patrick: “Yeah, especially all that snow! We gotta do that again.”
116Please respect copyright.PENANAKRobM3CRbY
The next was Timmy and his fairies.
116Please respect copyright.PENANAJsmkst7bQS
Jimmy: “Well Turner, it’s been a blast. See you next time.”
116Please respect copyright.PENANATTfQkhzk6L
Timmy: “Sure, but maybe next time let’s hang out when our worlds aren’t in danger.”
116Please respect copyright.PENANAkbrc1xlCge
Jimmy: “I’ll think of something.”
116Please respect copyright.PENANA1ePXOCygdZ
Lilo and Stitch were up next.
116Please respect copyright.PENANA1dS2ump3GX
Lilo: “Bye everyone, it was nice meeting you all.”
116Please respect copyright.PENANA8Q0h1acjdY
Stitch: “Yeah, new Achi-Baba!”
116Please respect copyright.PENANAigGpXXyQJO
Lilo: “I can’t wait to tell Nani, Jumba, and Pleakley about what happened.”
116Please respect copyright.PENANAGBCMfD4Zim
Lilo: “Oh, wait! I almost forgot.”
116Please respect copyright.PENANADe3by9mWcL
Lilo stopped right before leaving and turned to Juniper 2. She ran up to her and hugged her.
116Please respect copyright.PENANAADnB2tv4OL
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.”
116Please respect copyright.PENANAORegQEJLJj
Juniper 2 fought back the tears and hugged Lilo back.
116Please respect copyright.PENANAUYbr3N9LuR
Juniper 2: “Thanks Lilo, I really appreciate it.”
116Please respect copyright.PENANAyOASyR2st5
After a moment, they separate, and Lilo runs back to Stitch. One more wave goodbye later, and they were gone.
116Please respect copyright.PENANAHiKJgRbdwv
Next up, Danny. But instead of leaving after saying goodbye, he asks Jimmy for a favor and offers June a choice.
116Please respect copyright.PENANANAiUVE36je
Danny: “June, just in case… you know, you’re welcome in my world.”
116Please respect copyright.PENANAkGPyvejeYc
Juniper 2: “What?”
116Please respect copyright.PENANAE0exBV7ExW
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.”
116Please respect copyright.PENANApKcXhXkE2c
Juniper 1: “Don’t worry about it; I’m sure Ah-Ma will be happy to have two Te Xuan Ze.”
116Please respect copyright.PENANAVo6CphhYhI
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?”
116Please respect copyright.PENANAt4UYGivpcX
Juniper 2: “… Thanks, Danny.”
116Please respect copyright.PENANAXILbXHaTSI
Danny: “Hey, I’m a hero, it’s what we do.”
116Please respect copyright.PENANAyOovg0bDgS
Danny walks through his portal, leaving Jimmy and the Junes alone.
116Please respect copyright.PENANAejMTXGbPQy
Juniper 1: “Ready?”
116Please respect copyright.PENANA9LlQubxQPA
Juniper 2: “Sure, let’s go home.”
116Please respect copyright.PENANAUmvZkpet0a
The two entered the portal, and in the next moment, they ar outside in the park. They were finally home.
116Please respect copyright.PENANAJUgR6nlcnC
Juniper 1: “It’s good to be back.”
116Please respect copyright.PENANAL3zBnba37i
Juniper 2: “I’m surprised the bracelet isn’t going crazy.”
116Please respect copyright.PENANAinLls5Sqls
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.”
116Please respect copyright.PENANA0TqjvhsYKB
Juniper 2: “No problem.”
116Please respect copyright.PENANA9qrw1sPEBx
116Please respect copyright.PENANAyliwoZ6V45
Ray Ray: “Hahaha, no way! This is so awesome!”
116Please respect copyright.PENANAUVdcdeSJQK
Monroe: “Boy, this is the furthest thing from awesome. June, I told you it was a bad idea to enter that place by yourself.”
116Please respect copyright.PENANArgnq9JgorM
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.
116Please respect copyright.PENANAMXxML7kLAD
Ray Ray: “But she went on some crazy multiverse adventure. With a talking sponge! Man, I wish I could’ve gone.”
116Please respect copyright.PENANApsiUuYgrER
Monroe: “Yes, but while they were doing that, Jasmine had to come out of retirement. Again!”
116Please respect copyright.PENANAkJaGlWwyKz
Juniper 1: “I’m sure Lila helped her, and besides, I’m back, and I brought help.”
116Please respect copyright.PENANAyXqTdbXXA5
Monroe: “Oh yes, the robot.”
116Please respect copyright.PENANAYIs2LvxMuv
Juniper 2: “Hey! I’m not just some robot.”
116Please respect copyright.PENANAX9GWDKr4Am
Monroe: “I… look, I’m sorry. This is going to take some time to get used to. Two Junes…”
116Please respect copyright.PENANAo2XFqEgktf
Juniper 1: “So you accept her?”
116Please respect copyright.PENANA4VKLZz4OKN
Monroe: “I accept she isn’t some evil clone. Not that she can stay here.”
116Please respect copyright.PENANAxXYR8T6KQE
Juniper 1: “What?! Why not?”
116Please respect copyright.PENANAQuQPgU7G4D
Monroe: “Because there can only be one Te Xuan Ze.”
116Please respect copyright.PENANAqqQDuwbpwc
Juniper 2: “I knew it.”
116Please respect copyright.PENANApyRufOPEMW
Juniper 1: “But we’re both the Te Xuan Ze! And even if she’s not, we can take turns.”
116Please respect copyright.PENANA4lhHNdGBka
Juniper 2: “Oh yeah! No more bailing on our friends.”
116Please respect copyright.PENANAiXTc9DAlxJ
Juniper 1: “No more being on the clock 24/7.”
116Please respect copyright.PENANAUOckNqvHs0
Juniper 2: “No more having to choose between knocking out the next demon of the week or something like a school dance.”
116Please respect copyright.PENANAgsRjNTWYds
Juniper 2: “We can take breaks every now and then.”
116Please respect copyright.PENANA60EBTrHhVe
Ray Ray: “Sounds like a plan to me.”
116Please respect copyright.PENANAHD2y5901Iv
Monroe: “Oh really? And where will you live, June?”
116Please respect copyright.PENANAHgzJKbUr2O
Juniper 2: “What do you mean?”
116Please respect copyright.PENANAd4eehMbjHN
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?”
116Please respect copyright.PENANAglSTHZt5cN
Juniper 1: “S-She can… book a hotel or something.”
116Please respect copyright.PENANArY5GCZe6lH
Monroe: “With what money, June? Might as well take the deal that Danny fellow gave you. It’s the better option.”
116Please respect copyright.PENANA7yfl64MrF1
Juniper 2: “But… what about my friends? What about you and Ray Ray? Mom and Dad. Ah-Ma. I… don’t want to leave.”
116Please respect copyright.PENANAa7XNcYLfBZ
Ah-Ma: “I’m sorry June, but you can’t stay.”
116Please respect copyright.PENANAuzoY63KdUl
The Junes: “Ah-Ma!”
116Please respect copyright.PENANAWhM5mhj8As
The old woman appears at the door of their room, looking at the two of them with sorrow.
116Please respect copyright.PENANA1plx90hsnX
Ah-Ma: “Never expected to get another granddaughter. Even if she is not really human. But I’m glad you’re both alright.”
116Please respect copyright.PENANAOHDJP02mtr
Juniper 2: “But… why can’t I stay?”
116Please respect copyright.PENANAMjGXLtXOuQ
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.”
116Please respect copyright.PENANAjEgEyBNJ84
Juniper 1: “How isn’t she the Te Xuan Ze? She’s me!”
116Please respect copyright.PENANA3ani6mO4VT
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.
116Please respect copyright.PENANAlsZmIDuEW4
June 1 feels warm and bright, human.
116Please respect copyright.PENANAdutVh4JNBQ
June 2 isn’t too different, but her hand is a bit heavier and colder, robot.
116Please respect copyright.PENANATMDH1ZbNeW
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.”
116Please respect copyright.PENANAr3Cy2xMOU4
Juniper 2: “No way…”
116Please respect copyright.PENANAhCPCEHAmHE
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?”
116Please respect copyright.PENANAXYPvVflU8e
Ah-Ma: “It’s too dangerous and could draw unwanted attention. Who knows what might happen if the magical world learns of the… multiverse?”
116Please respect copyright.PENANAJma9oG6I1t
Monroe: “It’s a madhouse out there as it is.”
116Please respect copyright.PENANAena3nPF34x
Juniper 1: “So what? She’s should just leave, forever?”
116Please respect copyright.PENANAx9ECoSqom7
Ah-Ma: “Not forever; she can still visit. Just not often enough to draw attention.”
116Please respect copyright.PENANAnN5o8mHcLf
Ray Ray: “Well, this sucks.”
116Please respect copyright.PENANA8hXQXF3ele
Juniper 2: “You’re telling me.”
116Please respect copyright.PENANAeQQbHfFLGv
Juniper 1: “Ah-Ma, that’s not fair! There has to be another way.”
116Please respect copyright.PENANAct8DXmVAIc
June 1 might not be the one being asked to leave, but she knows how she would feel if she were.
116Please respect copyright.PENANAADwnPiHTgo
Juniper 2: “It’s okay, I… kind of expected it.”
116Please respect copyright.PENANAS7NfsZLgEA
Ah-Ma: “I’m sorry, June. I really am.”
116Please respect copyright.PENANAzhSrnmSxzX
Juniper 2: “Thanks, Ah-Ma.”
116Please respect copyright.PENANAYRBmo4CKhM
Juniper 1: “So that’s it? Just like that?”
116Please respect copyright.PENANA9Ihrzqrryz
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.”
116Please respect copyright.PENANAAMj45uCpKU
Ah-Man: “Of course.”
116Please respect copyright.PENANAFvpvPJuQyG
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.
116Please respect copyright.PENANAhBnl4PWUQO
They sensed something was wrong but couldn’t put their finger on it.
116Please respect copyright.PENANAiTai3RdgiI
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.
116Please respect copyright.PENANA6jnsy7Ct0A
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.
116Please respect copyright.PENANAhiwLsH3d8O
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.
116Please respect copyright.PENANAsDgGwvKCVB
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.
116Please respect copyright.PENANAX8JuKirBCb
Before long, it was time. They regrouped at the portal.
116Please respect copyright.PENANARu3iUGqKYH
Juniper 1: “Sorry.”
116Please respect copyright.PENANAUVsb4KzAvA
Juniper 2: “Don’t be; I get why I have to go. I’m just glad I could say goodbye to everyone.”
116Please respect copyright.PENANAy2dGJh1FiF
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.

Juniper 2: “Haha, I guess.”
116Please respect copyright.PENANA2seVZpW8wF
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.
116Please respect copyright.PENANA2yUEo2TUTY
Ray Ray: “See you later, June. We didn’t know each other long, but I’ll miss yah.”
116Please respect copyright.PENANAaqqe3uEw9M
Juniper 2: “Haha, I’ll miss you too. Don’t give our sister too much trouble, okay?”
116Please respect copyright.PENANAhW3k2gnQmz
Ray Ray: “No promises.”
116Please respect copyright.PENANA6K5lOR6mRz
Juniper 2: “What about you, Monroe? Anything you want to say?”
116Please respect copyright.PENANAqc9NtVcFdw
Monroe: “No. We’ll see you again. You won’t get tears out of me.”
116Please respect copyright.PENANAiw483Y3FmG
Juniper 2: “Haha, alright.”
116Please respect copyright.PENANAqbSpt8jGsk
She says as she pats his head.
116Please respect copyright.PENANAyLHYgFSwEb
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.
116Please respect copyright.PENANAZeWwL94SVm
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.
116Please respect copyright.PENANAtptPhsebxn
Juniper 2: “See you later, Ah-Ma.”
116Please respect copyright.PENANAJF7oadNe5f
Ah-Ma: “Later, kiddo. Remember, you are still welcome back here. This is not goodbye.”
116Please respect copyright.PENANAsVqTkGhdMK
Juniper 2: “… I know.”
116Please respect copyright.PENANA8HeWZCAL3T
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.
116Please respect copyright.PENANAhe3W17itda
Jimmy: “Sorry it didn’t work out.”
116Please respect copyright.PENANAynL6v3Bzte
Juniper 2: “It’s fine; I expected it.”
116Please respect copyright.PENANA0xfockHHHX
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.
116Please respect copyright.PENANA12ULLRqI1O
As for June, she entered Danny’s world and met him at the still-wreaked Nasty Burger.
116Please respect copyright.PENANAowXkHOTlTv
Juniper 2: “So, where are you going to take me?”
116Please respect copyright.PENANA8yKX6xWTXM
Danny: “New York. Don’t worry, Tucker knows a friend who knows a friend who can arrange a ride for you.”
116Please respect copyright.PENANA4PfcNoluPa
Juniper 2: “That’s… suspicious.”
116Please respect copyright.PENANAaBqA1W065D
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.”
116Please respect copyright.PENANA4yLcraOmgy
Juniper 2: “You have a lot of friends.”
116Please respect copyright.PENANAkLpvKD55Ze
Danny: “Eeh, being ghost boy has its perks.”
116Please respect copyright.PENANADtxd1EaOeD
Juniper 2: “Well, okay, if you’re sure.”
116Please respect copyright.PENANADbsoIxjibT
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!?
116Please respect copyright.PENANAXTRh8qNrdP
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.
116Please respect copyright.PENANArsxXv1rlqE
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.
116Please respect copyright.PENANAVKnfeW4DuK
She wasn’t in her world anymore.
116Please respect copyright.PENANAATGhYl0bGz
She wasn’t the Te Xuan Ze.
116Please respect copyright.PENANA2fevJHiZqM
She had no friends here.
116Please respect copyright.PENANA936tLwcAbN
Ray Ray and Moroe weren’t here.
116Please respect copyright.PENANA7tfiyyedb4
Ah-Ma wasn’t here.
116Please respect copyright.PENANAqYuDdLNSCw
She was… alone.
116Please respect copyright.PENANATPak1L6IfG
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.
116Please respect copyright.PENANA4xHhlbMYwp
This was not fair! She didn’t ask to be like this! Why must she give up everything!?
116Please respect copyright.PENANAD00mhD8vhz
A dark thought then slithered into her mind.
116Please respect copyright.PENANACfvRJevY9V
Juniper: ‘Maybe I should have taken her place…’
116Please respect copyright.PENANAYoGCpLeZeZ
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.
116Please respect copyright.PENANAt7tID20A4D
Juniper: “This is worse than when I learned I couldn’t leave Orchid Bay.”
116Please respect copyright.PENANANVCSNzi5jG
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.
116Please respect copyright.PENANAjuhFC0RUgN
Maybe… she could even make new friends. She already did with Danny and the others.
116Please respect copyright.PENANAET7YBwbHyx
She closes her eyes and focuses on the bright side.
116Please respect copyright.PENANAgqO3MInGRy
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.”
116Please respect copyright.PENANA99ZXaO8nXO
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.
116Please respect copyright.PENANAWuEFp1lEoX
She looks down at the paper directions Danny gave her and then back up at the building.
116Please respect copyright.PENANA3Oo1cBDam9
Juniper: “Really, this is the place? Where this Luong Lao Shi is?”
116Please respect copyright.PENANA6x9UgKpxcG
She sighs, places the directions in her pocket, and prepares for her new life in this world.
116Please respect copyright.PENANAIlIQi6MOr1
To Be Continued

116Please respect copyright.PENANAlfOciHHDhn
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.
116Please respect copyright.PENANAFW7X7F8MBY
Now, you might be wondering why I did what I did with June. Here are my reasons:
116Please respect copyright.PENANAnc0SrKNowW
- Helps increase the chances for crossovers.
116Please respect copyright.PENANAVA6LcsRNik
- Interesting scenario and allows for interesting and impactful storylines for the future.
116Please respect copyright.PENANAW2o1xmBkEs
- Allows me to expand on a plot thread left hanging by the show. No spoilers.
116Please respect copyright.PENANA2fBqdELj8F
- The obvious and popular crossover duo of Jake and Juniper is now easily achieved.
116Please respect copyright.PENANAKYhsyJxNPq
- Makes this story less straightforward, more memorable, and important in the long run.
116Please respect copyright.PENANAagjiCMPnR2
- 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.
116Please respect copyright.PENANA5HiIIfL0p3
I hope those reasons are good enough for those that weren’t fully sold on the idea. Till next time.
