This should be in the Movies/Media section As a huge fan of the original 'Fresh Prince of Bel-Air', I'm actually not excited for this. I'm starting to grow tired of unnecessary reboots, specifically those that are banking on nostalgia. Almost 20 years after it ended, the original series still holds, making me laugh whenever I watch it (and cry in its tearful moments), and no damn reboot can replicate the same feelings I have for it. Twenty bucks says they'll remix the awesome theme song into some generic crap.
~Tokyo Police Department (T.P.D.) HQ~ "And we'll also be needing a full name, please," the Tokyo police chief added, "Hopefully, we'll have better luck finding her than we currently are with that missing member of parliament, Kuzco. Wonder where he is..." -------------------------------------------------- ~Tokyo National Museum - Security Room~ As two guards in the security room stared at security footage in front of them, making sure nothing was out of the ordinary, they heard a knock on the door. Confused, one of the guards got up and opened the door slowly, only for the door to slam right into his face, knocking him out. "What the-?" the other guard cried as he noticed Jadeite storming into the room, quickly punching and knocking him out as well... "Apologies gentlemen, but I have some business to take care of," Jadeite said, grabbing hold of a microphone next to the screens displaying security footage. Switching it on to send a message throughout the museum, Jadeite said, "May I have your attention. Due to unforeseen circumstances, the Tokyo National Museum will close immediately. All visitors please exit in an orderly fashion. Any requests for ticket refunds will be resolved in the next business day. Thank you, and have a pleasant day." Switching the microphone off, Jadeite watched the security footage, noticing that the museum visitors were doing as he instructed, slowly leaving the building. "Excellent," Jadeite said to himself, grinning. -------------------------------------------------------------- ~Island Off of Porta Vista~ After getting some supplies, Pacha and Kuzco were racing towards the island's shore in order to head to Tokyo. "Hey, was it a good idea to leave your family with those two?" Kuzco questioned Pacha as they ran, wondering if Pacha's family could deal with Yzma and Kronk. "Oh, don't worry," Pacha replied, "They can handle themselves." ---------------------------------------------------------------- ~Island Off of Porta Vista - Pacha's Home~ Meanwhile, at Pacha's home, the following happened... Spoiler: Actual HSD Footage As Yzma was getting clobbered by the children, she noticed Kuzco and Pacha in the distance, almost near the shore. "Ow! Oh, there they go, Kronk! And... They're getting away!" Yzma cried. As for Kronk, the following happened... Spoiler: Actual HSD Footage ------------------------------------------------------------------ ~Nintendo High School: Biology Classroom~ Noticing Dan and Chris whispering to each other, Coulson shook his head as he walked towards them, saying, "Hey guys, I'm going to assume that you're discussing something other than the questions on the test, so I'll let you off with a warning. But if I hear one more peep from either of you, you're both getting a zero on the test, and you'll both be sent to the principal's office. Do I make myself clear?" 'About time,' Vanellope thought to herself as she continued with her test, glad that Coulson got Dan and Chris to quiet down after their whispering was distracting her. ---------------------------------------------------------------- ~Park~ "Jigglypuff, Jigglypuff," Jigglypuff said as it strode through the park, noticing people walking away from a certain part of the park. "Jiggly?" Jigglypuff wondered out loud, curious as to what the people were walking away from. Walking towards the area, Jigglypuff noticed Spud and Rock with their instruments, and had an idea. "Jiggly!" Jigglypuff happily cried, thinking that if it sang with Spud and Rock's music, others will finally listen to its singing rather than sleep. "Jigglypuff, Jigglypuff?" Jigglypuff asked Spud and Rock while showing them its microphone, hoping they'll let it sing with them. ---------------------------------------------------------------------- ~Coffee Shop~ Listening to what Alice told him, Discord silently smiled back, thinking back to a memory of his from many years ago... Spoiler: BGM Spoiler: Flashback in Discord's Mind ~August 1993 - A.I.M. Building: Rooftop~ Over at the rooftop of the A.I.M. building in Tokyo, teenagers Celestia and Discord sat silently, watching the sunset as they ate sea-salt ice-cream. "Only seven days to go, and then our summer vacation's over," Discord commented. "Yeah, and we'll finally be high school students. I can't wait to see how Nintendo High is," Celestia replied, "Though, we still have to finish our summer assignment." "Ugh, don't remind me, Celestia," Discord replied, "You'll give me an ulcer!" "Not if you explode from all that ice-cream first," Celestia retorted, giggling. "Okay okay, we'll do our paper tomorrow, then after that, we go to the beach!" Discord said, "I mean, we haven't gone once this entire vacation. Blue seas! Blue skies! Let's just get on the train and GO!" "Maybe you forgot, but we're broke," Celestia replied. "Maybe you forgot, I'm smart," Discord said, "I've seen a bunch of ads in the paper for ridiculous jobs like scaring away bees or placing posters around town. I mean, sure, the wage is a bit crappy, but if we keep doing enough of those jobs, we'll have enough money for the trip, including those tasty pretzels they sell." Smiling, Celestia replied, "Well, if you say so, Discord." As the two looked back at the sunset, Celestia asked, "Discord, do you think we'll always be together like this?" "I sure hope so," Discord replied, "I'd hate to imagine being alone." After reminiscing, Discord told Alice, "I got it! Let's all go to the beach! You, me, Yuri, and Blanca too! It'll be a blast, trust me!" --------------------------------------------------------------- ~Outside Courthouse~ Parking outside the courthouse, Office Carter noticed people already starting to enter the building, with a couple of reporters and cameramen as well. "Damn, it's getting busy already," Carter said as he opened the door for Aerith. "We should go in now," Inspector Lee suggested. ------------------------------------------------------------------ ~Triskelion (aka The J.I.A. Headquarters) - Dr. Fennhoff's Office~ "Good," Dr. Fennhoff said, "That'll be all for today, Castiel. I want you to focus on that last memory you described to me. In our next session, we'll try to go deeper, and hopefully the more we do this, you'll finally remember your past memories. Now then..." Fennhoff grabbed a cold bottle of vodka and three empty glasses from under his desk, filling up all three glasses with the drink. "Vodka, for you and Orchid," Fennhoff told Castiel, "It's good. Arrived in a package early morning from my home country of Russia." --------------------------------------------------------------------- ~Tokyo's Hell's Kitchen District~ "I suppose so," Murdock replied as he, Harold, and Foggy entered the car. "Oh, a crowd will be there alright," Matt answered Harold's question about a crowd, "A bunch of news reporters, asking the same exact questions. 'What was your relation to Queen Elsa?' 'Did you harm Queen Elsa?' 'Why did you hide Queen Elsa?' Yada yada yada... I could go on forever, but that's the media in a nutshell." "Oshawott," Foggy added, nodding in agreement with Matt. ------------------------------------------------------------- ~Nintendo Elementary School - Playground~ As recess started, Rini exited outside with her new friends, learning about how they were helping the Muppets, and that their telethon was scheduled for tonight. "So these... Muppets need to raise a lot of money to save their theater, and you guys are helping them? That's really nice of you all," Rini said as she and the others sat next to the slides. "Thanks, but all the credit should go to Bonnie," Pipsqueak replied. "Yeah, she was the one who found out the theater was in danger," Sweetie Belle added, "Which, being a super Muppet fan like herself, could never let happen. She even convinced Kermit the Frog to say yes to doing something about it when he wasn't too sure. So in a way, Bonnie organized the whole thing." "Aww, c'mon guys," Bonnie said, blushing, "It's not just me. Clemont deserves as much credit as well. After all, we wouldn't have reached this far if it weren't for him." "Deden," Bonnie's Dedenne added, nodding in agreement. "Well, either way, you guys should be proud of yourselves for the work you put into it. It's for a good cause after all, and you have my full support," Rini said, "Think I could come with my family to the telethon tonight?" "Of course, Rini," Bonnie replied, "You're more than welcome." "Thanks," Rini thanked Bonnie. "Hey there, Rini," a voice called out to Rini. Looking around, Rini noticed the voice coming from Sammy as he walked towards her and the others... "Oh, hey Sammy," Rini replied. "So, I guess you made some new friends," Sammy commented as he noticed Bonnie, Sweetie Belle, and Pipsqueak. "Yup," Rini replied. "Great," Sammy said, "Guess you're liking school so far, huh?" "Looks like it," Rini replied. "Awesome. If you need anything, just let me know. Later, Rini," Sammy said as he left to join his friends. "Is that your brother?" Sweetie Belle asked Rini. "More like half-brother," Rini answered, "I was adopted by his parents." "Oh, I was adopted too," Pipsqueak said, "Guess we have something in common." Smiling, Rini replied, "Hmm, guess so." ----------------------------------------------------------- ~London, U.K. - MI6 HQ (M's Office)~ Over at the MI6 headquarters, Bond and M were watching live footage from the United Nations, where Cuban leader, Laureano de Torres y Ayala, was vehemently denying that his government was aiding the Crystal Order despite evidence submitted by the U.K. government. "Well, he's taking my discovery in Cuba rather well," James commented. Sighing, M said, "Even with the evidence, Torres is bound to cover up any more evidence linking him with the Crystal Order." "M... has Agent Bad Wolf started her mission in Tokyo yet?" Bond asked. "As a matter of fact, yes," M replied, "Same day you had your little chase in Cuba." "I don't suppose she'll be needing any help, does she?" Bond asked once more. "No, 007, that won't be necessary," M replied, "Geoffrey thinks she's doing well. You, on the other hand, need to meet up with Agent GS in Venice. He'll give you the details of your next mission once you arrive there. Dismissed." Nodding, Bond left M's office, on his way to the airport for another mission. ---------------------------------------------------------------- ~Imperial Palace Ballroom~ Once the Japanese national anthem was played, Prime Minister Harriet Jones walked towards the podium, and began to speak, saying, "Good morning, everybody. Please, be seated." Once everyone but Jones took a seat, the prime minister continued, "Welcome to the Imperial Palace. It has been said that true courage is 'a perfect sensibility of the measure of danger, and a mental willingness to incur it.' For around a quarter of a century, with our nation at war, the men and women of our armed forces have known the measure of danger that comes with military service. But year after year, they have displayed a selfless willingness to incur it, by stepping forward, by volunteering, by serving and sacrificing greatly to keep us all safe. And today, we pay tribute to two soldiers who embody the courage of their country. Today, we present our nation’s highest military decoration, the Medal of Honor, to Sergeant Keith Shadis, and to Private First Class Aveline. Keith and Aveline are actually the first soldiers to be recognized with the Medal of Honor for service above and beyond the call of duty in Germany since the days of World War II. We have a lot of VIPs here, but I’d like to acknowledge the most important... Aveline's father, Adéwalé, who has proudly served his nation for many years before Aveline joined the army. I am told that exactly one week ago, Aveline and her father had a telephone conversation. Aveline's cousin was going to visit in a few days, and Adéwalé hoped that his daughter may come early for a family reunion of sorts. But Aveline refused, wanting instead to continue her service in Germany. Although, it seems like she came back early after all." As the audience chuckled at the prime minister's small joke, Harriet Jones continued, "The bottom line is Aveline chose to continue serving her country rather than take a break. And in doing so she carried on her father's proud tradition of service. Our story begins this past Tuesday, in a military base on the eastern side of Germany. It was just another day for our servicemen there, when suddenly, the ground begins to shake for a few seconds. Once the shaking stops, everyone assumes it was simply a small earthquake. But Aveline, however, felt that something wasn't right. And just then, the shaking returned, only stronger this time. And as before, it stopped after a few seconds. Looking around, Aveline noticed something strange about the ground where Sergeant Shadis and other soldiers were standing in. Sensing danger, Aveline sprinted towards Sergeant Shadis, pushing herself and Shadis out of harm's way. And just as Aveline did that, a mega-evolved Steelix belonging to a member of the Crystal Order emerged from the ground where Shadis stood a mere few seconds ago, killing the other brave souls who remained standing there. Across Europe, base commanders were glued to their radios, listening as the brave Japanese souls in that base fought back an ambush by the Crystal Order. One battalion commander remembered that 'all of Europe' was listening as a soldier on the ground described what was happening shortly before he was killed. Meanwhile, Aveline and Keith made sure to give the enemy a fight. But as the Steelix sent a helicopter towards their direction, it missed, only for a piece of debris from the resulting explosion to hit Sergeant Shadis in his leg, resulting in the injury he currently has at the moment. Upon noticing what happened, Aveline quickly rushed to Keith's aid, who insisted he didn't need any help. But Aveline refused to follow his orders, and instead carried Keith on her shoulders, escaping from the base. For the next few hours, Aveline never gave up, continuing to carry Shadis over her shoulders, trying to find a safe place for them to get help. When all hope seemed lost, Aveline finally found that she had crossed the border to the east, arriving at the Sokovian town of Stanlieban. Within a few hours, the Japanese Intelligence Agency arrived at the village, and flew the two brave souls back to safety. The nation was tested that day. Other than Aveline and Keith, every single Japanese soldier in that base gave their life, their last full measure of devotion. And we remember them today. Some of their families are here today. I’d ask them to please stand so we can recognize their extraordinary sacrifice." Family members of those who died in the base attack then stood up, with the audience applauding in honor of their deceased loved ones. "The legacy of these fallen heroes endures in the courage and strength of their unit," Harriet Jones continued, "Forever brothers-in-arms. We honor Aveline and Keith Shadis for their extraordinary actions on that day. Aveline, Keith, you did your duty, and now it’s time for Japan to do ours. We welcome you home with the support and the benefits and opportunities that you’ve earned. You make us proud, and you motivate all of us to be the best we can be as Japanese, as a nation; to uphold our sacred obligations and all who have faced that 'measure of danger' and 'the willingness to incur it.' May God bless you, and may your courage inspire and sustain us always. And may God continue to bless the Republic of Japan. With that, I’d like to have the citation read." Stepping away from the podium, Harriet Jones walked over to a military aide standing next to her, carrying a box that contained the medals for Aveline and Keith Shadis. Meanwhile, the prime minister's secretary, Michael Scott, walked over to the podium for the citation reading, saying, "The Prime Minister of the Republic of Japan, authorized by Act of Parliament, March 3, 1863, has awarded in the name of Parliament the Medal of Honor to Sergeant Keith Shadis and Private First Class Aveline, Japanese Army. Extraordinary heroism and selflessness above and beyond the call of duty are in keeping with the highest traditions of military service and reflect great credit upon themselves and the Japanese Army." As Harriet Jones placed the Medal of Honor around the necks of Aveline and Shadis, the audience applauded, with Adéwalé tearing up as he saw his daughter being given such a prestigious honor. "That concludes the ceremony, but not the celebration," Harriet Jones said as she walked back to the podium, "I hear the food here is pretty good, and the drinks are free." "Woo!" Lt. Surge cheered after hearing that, eliciting laughter in the audience. "Who gave a big shout on that?" Harriet Jones asked as she and the audience chuckled, "I heard somebody. But I hope all of you enjoy the hospitality of the Imperial Palace. I hope we all remember once again those who are fallen. We are grateful to the families who are here. And to Aveline, Keith, and all who serve in Japan’s Armed Forces, we want you to know that we will always be grateful for your extraordinary service to our country. Thank you very much, everybody. Have a great day." --------------------------------------------------------------- ~Nintendo High School: Demonology Classroom~ "Umm, I'm sorry, but I'm honestly feeling a little offended now," Sunset Shimmer said, "Could you please refrain from making it look like all demons are bad? Demons like me have feelings too you know. Heck, even if you say 'bad demons' rather than just the word 'demons' alone would be a little more politically correct and less hurtful."

The villain known as 'Madame Masque' will be appearing in Season 2 (whether she is or isn't the season's main baddie is unknown). Interestingly, in the comics, her character is a love interest/enemy of Tony Stark, so I wonder if they'll be doing something similar with Howard Stark. Source
~Tokyo's Hell's Kitchen District - Matt Murdock's Apartment~ "Good. The motorcade's outside," Officer Jenny said as she led Matt, Foggy, and Harold outside the apartment building. "Osha..." Foggy commented, noticing a car protected by police motorcycles around it. While Matt couldn't see the motorcade, he could hear the motorcycles surrounding the vehicle that would transport him, Foggy, and Harold to the courthouse. "Isn't this a bit too much?" the demon asked Officer Jenny. "Can't be too safe with security these days, Murdock," Jenny replied to Matt as she opened the vehicle's door, "Get in." -------------------------------------------------------------- ~Island Off of Porta Vista - Pacha's Home~ While Yzma and Kronk remained inside with Chaca and Tipo, Pacha was secretly talking with his wife, Chica, at the entrance to his home, explaining to her Kuzco's predicament, and what he was about to do. "So we have to get back to Tokyo, find her lab..." Pacha explained, with the discussion continued in the following: Spoiler: Actual HSD Footage ----------------------------------------------------------------- ~Moon Palace~ After acquiring information on his three targets from Tex Richman, Thrax noticed that they all attend Nintendo Elementary. "Well, I'm off," Thrax commented. "Need some help?" Goldar asked. "That won't be necessary. All I have to do is slaughter three children. How hard can that be?" Thrax replied, teleporting away. ---------------------------------------------------------------- ~Courtroom~ Carrying a cup of coffee, Judge Philip Banks entered the courtroom where the upcoming trial for Harold Flamel was to take place, only to be surprised to see the Japanese Justice Minister, Wilhuff Tarkin, already in the empty courtroom, sifting through papers... "You're early, minister," Banks commented. "One can never be too early for justice, Judge Banks," Tarkin (who was going to be the prosecutor in the upcoming trial) replied, "I assumed you'd know that about me by now." "Well, of course," Philip Banks said, shrugging, "Members of the jury should be here in a little while. Flamel and his attorney are on their way." "Excellent," Tarkin replied. -------------------------------------------------------------------- ~Limo~ Stepping into the limo, Hans said, "Time to go." "Right behind ya," Olaf added as he too got inside the limo. As the limo started driving, Olaf commented, "Hey, you know, it's been a week since we came to Japan." "Yeah, you're right," Hans replied, "Crazy week, huh?" ---------------------------------------------------------------------- ~Imperial Palace Ballroom~ As Lt. Surge and the others continued waiting for the Medal of Honor ceremony to begin, they noticed a couple of arrivals, including Prime Minister Harriet Jones, Michael Scott (her secretary), Riad Mousa al-Asaad (leader of the Free Syrian Army, a rebel group in Syria supprted by Japan), and the two recipients of the prestigious award... Aveline and Sgt. Keith Shadis (who was on a wheelchair due to his injury from Germany)... The audience at the ballroom clapped as they appeared, with Aveline looking at her father and his group, smiling at them. Standing at the podium, Michael Scott said, "Good morning everyone. Before we start with the ceremony, I would like to ask all of you to please rise for the national anthem. Except if you're handicapped, because you obviously can't stand, am I right? Hehe..." Shadis glared at Scott after he said that, especially since he himself was on a wheelchair. Noticing no one was laughing, Michael added, "Right, bad joke... I should stop." The audience then stood, and the national anthem played. ------------------------------------------------------------------ ~Nintendo High School: Gym~ Stretching, Katniss decided to go for a triple jump, successfully doing one on her first try. "Pika! Pika!" Haymitch cheered from the bleachers. "Nice gurl," Will Smith commented after seeing Katniss do a triple jump, "Now, let me show ya how da pros do it." Rolling her eyes after hearing what Smith said, Katniss watched Will try to do a triple jump, only to trip and fall flat on his face, thus failing miserably. "Uhh... best 2 out of 3?" Will asked as he got up. Seeing Will unsuccessfully try a triple jump, Bulk Biceps shook his head in disappointment as he took part in a sprint. --------------------------------------------------------------------- ~Nintendo High School: Demonology Classroom~ "I appreciate your concern, sir," Sunset Shimmer told Vergil, "But I think I can take care of myself, and I really see nothing wrong with being open about being a demon. If anyone has a problem with that, well thankfully, the law protects us demons against those who attack us solely because of what we are. After all, that is why we have have laws against hate crimes. But anyway, please continue with your lecture, I am rather enjoying it." -------------------------------------------------------------------------- ~Coffee Shop~ "Well, glad to see things are going great for you guys. Wish I could say the same about me..." Discord replied, thinking back to how Rassilon ordered him to slice off Alice's heart and give it to him in a box, "Work has been terrible, to be honest. I'm being forced to do stuff I don't agree with, and... eh, I'm probably ranting too much." --------------------------------------------------------------------- ~Castiel's Mind~ In Castiel's mind, Dr. Fennhoff saw Orchid entering from a door in her home, smiling at Castiel as he was in a seat. Fennhoff then noticed Castiel smiling back at her appearance. "Yes, that's it," Fennhoff said, "Focus as much as you can on Orchid. It could be the key to reclaiming your memories from your past life, because while you say those memories don't exist in your mind, they are actually still deep somewhere. You may not remember them yet, but I'm sure with more practice, you'll be able to reawaken your lost memories, which I believe could grant you full control over yourself." --------------------------------------------------------------------- ~Near Tokyo National Museum~ "Wait," Shay told Quan Chi, "That'll cause a scene, which would only make things more difficult. Besides, the museum's full of visitors." "I can take care of that," Jadeite said, "Once every visitor leaves the museum, that'll be your signal to deal with the guards." "Sounds like a plan, Jadeite," Starlight Glimmer replied as Jadeite teleported to the museum. "Now, we wait," Cormac commented as he kept watching the museum building from the window. -------------------------------------------------------------------- ~Tokyo Police Department (T.P.D.)

"Oh oh, I'd like to," Kirby said. "Very well, Kirby, go right ahead," Smith replied, "Everyone, turn your books to the first page, and follow along." Joshua did as he was instructed, and so was Beat (who was relieved Kirby volunteered to read out loud so that he wouldn't have to do it himself). As Kirby opened his copy of 'A Tale of Two Cities,' he began to read out loud, "It was the best of times, it was the worst of times, it was the age of wisdom, it was the age of foolishness, it was the epoch of belief, it was the epoch of incredulity, it was the season of Light, it was the season of Darkness, it was the spring of hope, it was the winter of despair, we had everything before us, we had nothing before us, we were all going direct to Heaven, we were all going direct the other way--in short, the period was so far like the present period, that some of its noisiest authorities insisted on its being received, for good or for evil, in the superlative degree of comparison only." ------------------------------------------------------------------------ ~Nintendo High School - Government Classroom~ "Now class, as you all probably know, Japan is a direct democracy," Rose Tyler explained to the class, "Which basically means that citizens directly vote for their leaders, unlike most other democracies in the world, where people actually vote for representatives who then decide policy initiatives. Eligible citizens in Japan can vote for anyone ranging from a local mayor to the country's prime minister, which as we all know, will be decided in November's election." As Rose continued explaining, she could hear snoring closeby, noticing it was coming from Mario. Luigi facepalmed at the sight of his brother, while Rose sighed and walked over to him, knocking on his desk, trying to wake him up. "Wakey wakey, Mario," Tyler told Mario as slowly woke up. "I'm so sorry about my brother, Miss Tyler," Luigi told Rose. "Me too," Mario added, "It's just, government in general bores me." "I'm curious, but why do you say that?" Rose asked. "Well, Mario thinks they're all the same," Rosalina replied. "Yeah," Mario added, "And they'll talk about the same old stuff." "I see," Rose said, "Ever considered that maybe... you'd prefer someone else in office than your typical bureaucrat?" "Well, uhh..." Mario wondered out loud. "Or the things the government deals with, such as the economy, healthcare, security," Rose continued, "Or you saying you don't care about those things?" "Umm, it's not that I don't care, but, but... I don't know..." Mario replied, scratching his head. "Mario, I'm not saying you have to like or even take part in your country's democracy. That's what makes democracy great. You have a freedom to choose whether you care or not, a privilege that people in other countries can't enjoy. All I'm saying is that, the less people care, the less things change," Rose explained, "All great social movements in history happened because people decided to speak up and let their voices be heard. Were any of them easy? No, of course not. But they eventually succeeded because people never gave up. And that's what I'm asking you to see government as, not as some mindless entity that has nothing to do with your lives. Understand?" "I guess so..." Mario answered, "I will try to focus more, Miss Tyler." "Good," Rose said, smiling at him as she went back to lecturing the class. "Oh Mario, why'd you have to embarrass me like that?" Luigi whispered to himself. "Don't be such a buzzkill, Luigi," Rosalina whispered to Luigi, "Miss Tyler didn't care. And besides, his snoring was kinda adorable." -------------------------------------------------------------- ~Nintendo High School - Mathematical Sciences Classroom~ As the instructor continued the lecture on basic statistics, Yoshi kept daydreaming about the Powerline and Daft Punk concert he went with Mario and the others back on Tuesday, humming to the many songs he enjoyed hearing there. ----------------------------------------------------------------- ~Nintendo High School - History Classroom~ As the history instructor continued lecturing on the French Revolution, and the students in class continued writing notes on the subject, Bowser whispered to Peach, "What was the name of that building again?" "The Bastille," Peach replied as she continued writing notes. "Thanks," Bowser whispered back, writing the name of the building the instructor mentioned as he continued writing notes. "Shh, keep it down," Vanitas whispered, while Xion shook her head in response to Vanitas's attitude. ---------------------------------------------------------------- ~Nintendo High School - Girls' Restroom~ Having taken a restroom break, Kairi decided to use her mini-free time to chat a bit with Kai: [Kairi]: Yo Kai, remember how I did 6 cigars?

This current year's battle was taking place in a ghost town south of Japan. As the battle raged on, Astral watched from atop a building, rather enjoying the sight. Sensing three presences appear behind him, the S-type leader turned around, and found Jumpman, Ruiji, and Fujiko standing right in front of it, ready for a battle. "You three lunatics again?" Astral questioned. "We're nothing like how you met us last week, S-type," Ruiji replied. "Yeah, we made sure to train hard after meeting you!" Fujiko added. "And now, we're ready for a real fight with you!" Jumpman added. "Ooh, them's fighting words," Astral said, "Alright then, let's see how you kids face off against the boss!" The trio rushed towards Astral, who jumped backwards, and sent blasts of energy towards the building. As the building began to collapse, the trio jumped towards Astral, with Fujiko sending a fireball towards Astral, who quickly blocked it with its arms. As the four landed hard on the ground, Ruiji charged towards Astral, yelling, "Take this!" Ruji attempted to land a punch at Astral with his flaming fists, but the S-type was able to easily dodge all of Ruiji's attempts. "Pathetic," Astral commented, grabbing hold of Ruiji, and sending him flying straight towards Jumpman. As Ruiji crashed into Jumpman, Fujiko sent countless fireballs towards Astral, who took the brunt of the attack. "Nice," Astral commented, "Now, let's see how I do it." Summoning twice the number of fireballs Fujiko hit it with, Astral sent them all flying towards Fujiko, sending her flying straight to a wall of the building that collapsed, and landing in the rubble. Getting up, Jumpman and Ruiji noticed Astral marching towards them, and grabbing the two by their necks. "You all got better, I'll admit," Astral told Jumpman and Ruiji, "But, everything must come to an end, and your time is now up." "Heh, you'll never beat us!" Jumpman retorted. "Yeah, even if we die, there will always be others like us who will stand up to you!" Ruiji added. "Oh how sentimental," Astral said, "Is that really all you two can muster as your final words?" "Heh, who said anything about those being our final words?" Ruiji replied. "You hearing this, Fujiko?" Jumpman called out to Fujiko. "What?!" a shocked Astral cried, wondering what was going on. Emerging from the rubble, Fujiko jumped high, and hit Astral with a powerful dropkick, causing it to lose its grip on Jumpman and Ruiji. Once the two brothers were free, they both yelled, "CHARGE!" Jumpman and Ruiji then rushed towards Astral (who was still recovering from Fujiko's attack), with the two brothers simultaneously attacking the S-type leader with fiery punches, then sending fireballs straight towards the S-type, sending it flying to the side of another building and collapsing. (from 4:10 to 5:22) Running over to Astral, the trio retained their defensive positions in case Astral tried attacking. Slowly getting up, Astral said, "Oh, you three have made a big mistake. Now I'm go- AAH!" Before the S-type could continue, a gunshot hit it on its right shoulder, then another gunshot hit it in its left shoulder. Astral then felt something tiny crawl up to it, and land a heavy punch to its face. "What just happened?" Fujiko wondered out loud. "Hello, Astral..." a voice behind the trio said. Turning around, the trio found Edward Kenway (captain in the Japanese military), accompanied by Timothy "Dum Dum" Dugan, and a tiny man who suddenly grew back to normal size, revealing himself as Ant-Man (real identity: Dr. Hank Pym of the J.I.A.)... "Hmph, well, if it isn't Captain Japan's Howling Commandos," Astral commented, recognizing the three individuals who had just attacked him. "I'm happy you still remember us," Edward replied. "Heard you had a bit of a mutiny problem recently," Dugan added. "Galamoth is old news," Astral retorted, "Right now, my focus is here." "Well, doesn't look like you're doing a good job," Ant-Man replied, pointing towards the battle, where the S-types were retreating. "Ha! We won!" Jumpman cheered. "Take that, Astral!" Ruiji added. "Grr, enjoy your victory now, but our day will come. You'll all see," Astral replied as it teleported away. "Ah Astral, you never change," Kenway commented as he looked at the trio, "Great job, lads. You did the world a great service today." "Aww, thanks, Mr.... umm..." Fujiko replied, realizing she didn't know Edward's name. "Edward Kenway," Kenway answered, "Captain in the Japanese military. This here is Timothy 'Dum Dum' Dugan, and this here is Dr. Hank Pym of the J.I.A., or as he's better known as, Ant-Man." "Howdy," Dugan added, taking off his hat and putting it back on. "It's nice to meet you three," Pym added. "Hey," Ruiji replied back. "Wait, Kenway... you're Haytham's dad?!" Jumpman asked Edward. "That's right, lad," Edward replied, "Now that the battle's over, I was going to go see how he was doing. You want to follow?" "Sure," Jumpman responded as he, Ruiji, and Fujiko followed Edward, Dugan, and Pym. "I never knew Haytham's dad was so cool," Ruiji whispered to Jumpman. "I know, right?" Jumpman whispered back. "And he's so dreamy..." Fujiko added.

No surprise here, but Blair Underwood's returning as Dr. Andrew Garnet (a.k.a. May's husband). Also, Constance Zimmer has been cast as "the head of a mysterious new government agency that will cross paths with S.H.I.E.L.D. as both seek out new Inhumans following the events of last season." New government agency... is this a 'Civil War' connection?

Headquarters)~ "Oh definitely," Garret concurred with Sonya after she mentioned that there was nothing wrong with Castiel helping out despite being an S-type, "Although, I'm actually surprised you weren't told earlier.

Take the rest of the day off." -------------------------------------------------------------------------------- ~Nintendo High School: Creative Arts Classroom~ As Creative Arts class started, Manon and Harry noticed Namine next to them, sketching Power Rangers.

There will come a day where each individual has to die. Even demons such as myself aren't immortal." ----------------------------------------------------------------------- ~Nintendo High School: English Classroom~ "... Kirby, here, and... Noah, here. Perfect!" John Smith said after finishing with the roll call, "Now we can start." Smith then started handing out copies of 'A Tale of Two Cities' to the students, saying, "Before we start reading and trying to understand the story, we first need to understand its author, Charles Dickens." The English teacher then gave a summary of the life of Charles Dickens. ------------------------------------------------------------------------- ~Flower Shop~ Officer Carter smiled at Aerith as she arrived, thinking that she looked good with her coat. As Carter, Aerith, and Inspector Lee exited the flower shop, Lee looked around, feeling like he saw someone observing them when he was inside. "Lee, you comin'?"

"Y-yes," Inspector Lee responded as he got in Carter's car, with the car driving off. ----------------------------------------------------------------- ~Alleyway in Tokyo's Chinatown~ "Then what are we waiting for?" Starlight Glimmer asked, "Jadeite, mind teleporting us there?" "Of course," Jadeite replied, as he held Starlight's hoof and Shay's hand, while Cormac placed his other hand over Quan Chi's shoulder. With all four touching one another, Jadeite was able to teleport himself and the other three to an empty room in a building close to the Tokyo National Museum. "There's the museum," Shay commented as he looked out the window, noticing one of the banners hanging from the museum building containing an image of the amulet, "Security's tight." -------------------------------------------------------------------- ~Tokyo's Hell's Kitchen District - Matt Murdock's Apartment~ After finishing breakfast and getting ready for the trial, Murdock heard a knock on the door.

"Good morning, gentlemen," Jenny greeted Matt, Harold, and Foggy, "Are you all ready to go?" "I am," Matt replied, recognizing Officer Jenny by her voice. "Oshawott," Foggy added, nodding. -------------------------------------------------------------------- ~Imperial Palace Ballroom~ As Lt. Surge and the others continued waiting and watching others entering, Surge's Raichu noticed a familiar face, crying, "Raichu!" Looking around, the group noticed Odin walking towards them while using a cane to help him walk... "Odin, good ta see ya again," Lt. Surge greeted his former comrade as the two shook hands. "Indeed it is, Surge," Odin replied before shifting his focus towards Adéwalé, "Adéwalé, my utmost congratulations to your daughter." "Thank you, Odin," Adéwalé thanked Odin, "Please, allow me to introduce you to my nephew, Grant, and his girlfriend, Viola. They've come from France for a visit." "Bonjour, Monsieur Odin," Grant greeted Odin, shaking his hand. "Bonjour to you as well, Monsieur," Odin replied before shifting his focus to Viola, "And Bonjour to you as well, Mademoiselle." "Oh, enchanté," Viola replied, blushing as Odin kissed her hand. "Hey, don't forget about me," Finnick said. "Oh, of course, I could never forget about you, Finnick. Or you as well, Raichu," Odin replied, patting both Finnick and Raichu on their heads. "Raichu," Surge's Raichu happily replied as Odin patted him on his head. "And Jack, good to see you as well," Odin told Sparrow, "I assume you're still keeping an eye on Logan?" Odin asked Sparrow. "Yup," Jack replied. "Good," Odin commented as he took a seat, "You know, I actually knew one of the individuals who died in Germany." "Are you serious?" Finnick questioned, surprised to hear what Odin just said. "Oh yes, the one in charge of the base there was named Liam O'Brien. Good fellow. Knew him from my days in Iraq," Odin replied, "Shame this had to happen." "I'm sorry to hear that, Odin," Adéwalé said. "Well... at least your daughter survived, Adéwalé," Odin replied, "And that's something we should all be thankful for." --------------------------------------------------------------------- ~Castiel's Mind~ As Castiel remembered being allowed to live in Orchid's home, Dr. Fennhoff could see exactly what Castiel remembered, practically traversing through Castiel's mind. "This is a very beautiful home," Fennhoff commented, "But what was the thing that made you most fond here? Was it how Orchid's home looked? The food? Something else?" -------------------------------------------------------------------- ~Moon Palace~ After following Goldar back to the palace, Thrax was given the holographic letter Mewtwo left for Zedd and Rita a week ago, with a hologram displaying Tex Richman of the Crystal Order... "So, you must be Thrax," Richman said, "Allow me to introduce myself. The name's Tex Richman. I'm with the Crystal Order." "A pleasure to meet you, Richman," Thrax replied, "How may I be of service?" "Well, there's a property the Crystal Order's interested in acquiring, but to get it, the brotherhood needs some help with certain... obstacles," Tex answered. "What kind of obstacles?" Thrax asked. "These," Richman answered as the holograms of Bonnie, Sweetie Belle, and Pipsqueak appeared. "Children? Those are your obstacles?" a surprised Thrax questioned. "Well, let's just say their deaths would guarantee that absolutely nothing would prevent us from acquiring that property," Tex answered as his hologram appeared once again. "Hmm, very well. I'll deal with them myself," Thrax said, "Shouldn't be too hard." "Excellent," Tex replied, "I'll send over the information on them." -------------------------------------------------------------------- ~Nintendo Elementary School: Outside Class 94~ Knocking on the door, Jessebelle waited for Ms. Frizzle to come out and meet her new student. A few seconds later, Frizzle then exited from her classroom... "Oh, why hello Jessebelle," Ms. Frizzle greeted Jessebelle before shifting her focus to Rini (with Luna-P floating around her), "And who might you be?" "I'm Rini," Rini answered. "Rini here is gonna be your new student," Jessebelle added, "Would you mind adding her to your class?" "Oh not at all," Ms. Frizzle replied. "Well, I'll see you later then, Rini," Jessebelle told Rini as she left. "Bye Ms. Jessebelle," Rini replied. "Ready to come in, Rini?" Ms Frizzle asked. "Umm, I guess," Rini replied, feeling a bit nervous. "Don't worry, I know everyone inside is going to like you," Ms Frizzle said, trying to reassure Rini not to be nervous. "Well, if you say so, Ms. Frizzle," Rini replied. "That's the spirit," Ms. Frizzle said as she opened the door to her classroom... Spoiler: BGM "Class, it appears we have a new student," Ms. Frizzle told her class as she and Rini entered, "I want you all to give a warm welcome to Rini." "Hello Rini," the class greeted the new student. "Hi," Rini replied, "It's nice to meet you all." "Now who would like to volunteer to show Rini around and help her get used to her new school?" Ms. Frizzle asked. "Oh, I can," Bonnie replied as she raised her hand enthusiastically. "Very well, Bonnie," Ms. Frizzle said, "Have a seat next to her, Rini." Nodding, Rini sat next to Bonnie, Sweetie Belle, and Pipsqueak. "Hi Rini, I'm Bonnie," Bonnie greeted Rini, "This is Sweetie Belle, that's Pipsqueak, and this little one is Dedenne." "Deden!" Bonnie Dedenne added. "Aww, it's so cute," Rini replied, "Anyway, thanks for offering to help me out." "Oh don't mention it," Bonnie said. "Yeah, Bonnie's right," Pipsqueak added. "We're just glad to have another friend," Sweetie Belle added. "You... really want to be my friend?" Rini asked. "Of course. Why wouldn't we?" Sweetie Belle replied. Happy that she already made some friends in school, Rini returned a smile. "Now then class, Bonnie asked if she can give an announcement, so please, give her your undivided attention," Ms. Frizzle told her class as Bonnie got up from her seat. "Thank you, Ms. Frizzle," Bonnie thanked her teacher as she faced the class, "As you all may have heard, the Muppets are going to have a telethon tonight at their theater to raise enough money to save that same theater. Which is why I'm inviting each and every one of you to come and show your support for a good cause that Sweetie Belle, Pipsqueak, and myself helped arrange. It's gonna be lots of fun, full of great performances, including a guest appearance by Diantha! And, admission is free!" "Wonderful news, Bonnie," Ms. Frizzle commented as Bonnie went back to her seat. "Muppet... telethon? What's that about?" Rini asked. "We can explain it to you later," Pipsqueak responded. 'Hmm, wonder if Tex is gonna do something about this,' Max thought to himself as he watched Bonnie talking with her group.
So we're really gonna beat this dead horse? Oh well, count me in

~Triskelion (aka The J.I.A. Headquarters)~ "Good, very good," Agent John Garret replied to Sonya as she reported to him about the mission in Tibet, "Especially for Cas. What with the S-type in him... takes guts. I'm glad we didn't bury his dead body after you-know-what." ------------------------------------------------------------------ ~Triskelion (aka The J.I.A. Headquarters) - Dr. Fennhoff's Office~ As Castiel and Orchid entered his office, Dr. Fennhoff walked over to his desk, saying, "Please, make yourselves comfortable."

Describe to me what you remember." ------------------------------------------------------------------------ ~Nintendo Elementary School: Counselor's Office~ As Jessebelle was taking care of some paperwork, she heard a knock on the door. "Come in," the counselor replied as the door opened, and in came Sammy and Rini (with Luna-P floating around her)... "Good morning, Ms. Jessebelle," Sammy greeted the counselor. "Why good mornin' to you as well, Sammy," Jessebelle replied, noticing Rini standing next to Sammy, "And is this the lil' girl your parents told me about?" Sammy nodded in reply, with Rini introducing herself, "Hi. My name's Rini." "Why it's a pleasure to meet you, Rini," Jessebelle replied, "You can go to your class, Sammy. I can take it from here." "Alright," Sammy said as he left, "See you later, Rini." "Bye, Sammy," Rini replied, taking a seat. "Alright now... you're 8 years old, is that correct, darlin'?" Jessebelle asked. "Yup," Rini replied. "Very good..." Jessebelle said as she typed something on her computer, "... and, done. Congratulations, Rini. You're now an official student of Nintendo Elementary. Your teacher will be Ms. Frizzle. Would you like me to take you to her classroom?" "Sure," Rini replied. "Alright then, come along," Jessebelle said as she and Rini both got up from their seats, and exited the office. ------------------------------------------------------------------------ ~Nintendo High School: Entrance~ Putting his communicator into his pocket, Hiccup whispered to Ron, "Just between you and me, I already knew about Billy, Tommy, Thomas, and Kimberly being Power Rangers. Zordon told me... and I guess he also told Billy about us." Looking at his watch, Hiccup noticed it almost time for Shop Class. "Ooh, better run. Catch ya later, Ron," Hiccup said as he rushed to Shop Class. --------------------------------------------------------------------------- ~Alleyway in Tokyo's Chinatown~ "Wait, I've seen that amulet before," Starlight Glimmer said, recognizing the amulet from its picture. "Really? Where?" Shay asked. "It's at the Tokyo National Museum," Starlight replied, "I read about the museum placing it in an exhibit over there some months ago." "Hmm, then I suppose we'll need to a pull off a heist," Jadeite commented. ------------------------------------------------------------------------------- ~Dark Side of the Moon~ "I agree," Thrax replied to his father. Just then, Thrax noticed Goldar flying towards him and Zedd... "Goldar, what is it?" Thrax questioned Goldar as he landed. "Someone from the Crystal Order is calling," Goldar replied. "Really?"

"Carter, what about Shan-Yu?" Lee asked Carter, tapping on Carter's shoulder. "Don't worry Lee, we can take a break for one day," Carter replied, "Besides, it ain't like we got a lead or somethin'. Shan-Yu's been missin' since the Chinatown incident, an' I doubt he's suddenly gonna appear anytime soon." ----------------------------------------------------------------------------------- ~Outside Flower Shop~ On the other side of the street outside Aerith's flower shop, Shan-Yu, covering his face in a hood, had watched Carter and Lee go inside, and talk with Aerith. "Interesting..." Shan-Yu said to himself as a van parked next to him. Entering the van, Shan-Yu noticed Madame Gao seated in the passenger seat right next to him... "I suppose you found what you were looking for?" Gao asked Shan-Yu in Chinese as the van they were in drove off. "Yes," Shan-Yu replied in Chinese as well, "I plan to get my revenge and get what Kitaniji promised us. It all ends tonight." ------------------------------------------------------------------- ~Nintendo High School: Philosophy Classroom~ Stepping into the Philosophy classroom, Carlton Banks walked over to Ghetsis's desk, placing an apple on it, telling Ghetsis, "Just a little something for you, big guy."

I don't believe we've even spoke to each other after your wedding. We really should do more than annually send each other Christmas and vacation cards." Hearing a knock on the door, Hu noticed Nurse Temple entering with IV replacements for the three patients... "Oh good, Nurse Temple's here," Doctor Hu commented, "I need to go take care of something. I'll see you guys in a while." As Hu left, Nurse Temple proceeded in replacing the IV for Jumpman, Ruiji, and Fujiko. -------------------------------------------------------------------------- ~Nintendo High School: History Classroom~ As Xion sat in her desk, taking out her books, she noticed her ex-boyfriend, Vanitas, enter the classroom...

"Jack Sparrow... been a while," Lt. Surge greeted Sparrow. "It certainly has, old friend," Sparrow replied as the two shared a brotherly hug. "Jack, thank you so much for coming," Adéwalé said as the two shared a hug as well. "The pleasure's all mine, Adé," Sparrow replied, "And besides, I'm just really proud for Aveline on such a remarkable achievement." "Hey there, Jack," Finnick greeted Sparrow. "Finn, look at you. Why... you're practically an adult now," Jack replied as he shook his hand before shifting his focus to Lt. Surge's Raichu. "Raichu... electrifying as always," Jack told the Pokemon as he pet him. "Raichu," Surge's Raichu happily replied. "And... who might you two be?" Jack questioned once he noticed Grant and Viola. "Bonjour, Monsieur Sparrow," Grant replied as he shook hands with Jack, "My name is Grant, I am Adéwalé's nephew from France. And this is Viola, my girlfriend." "Bonjour! It's nice to meet you," Viola added as she shook hands with Sparrow as well. "Ah, always a pleasure to meet someone from Adéwalé's family and their significant other," Sparrow replied as he took a seat with the group. "So, how's lil' Pipsqueak doin'?" Lt. Surge asked Jack. "Oh great, thanks for asking," Jack replied, "He's going to be busy today, helping those Muppets with their telethon. I'll be watching the show live in the Muppet theater tonight. You're all welcome to come if you wish." "Thanks for the offer Jack, but I expect to be busy... what wit' bein' a gym leader and all," Lt. Surge said, "Not ta mention, Adé prob'ly wants ta spend some time with Aveline... 'specially after what happened in Germany. But lil' Pip's got our full support." "Understandable," Jack replied. -------------------------------------------------------------------------- ~Nintendo High School: Accounting Classroom~ As Rue and Ritchie (with Sparky on his shoulder) entered the Accounting classroom and took their seats, Ritchie whispered, "Hey Rue... finished homework?" "Yeah. Needed some help?" Rue replied. "Yeah, just the last two questions," Ritchie whispered back, "Just hope the quiz questions aren't as hard." "Pikachu..." Sparky added, nodding in agreement with Ritchie. ----------------------------------------------------------------------- ~Nintendo High School: Gym~ Stepping out of the girl's locker room while wearing her gym uniform, Katniss began stretching while watching the boys exit from the boys locker room, wearing their gym uniforms as well. "Pikachu!" Haymitch cheered for Katniss as he sat in the bleachers. "Thanks, Haymitch," Katniss replied to her Pokemon. ------------------------------------------------------------------- ~Nintendo High School: Demonology Classroom~ Entering the Demonology classroom, Sunset Shimmer wondered how her favorite subject would be today as she took her seat, waiting for the bell to ring, and for Al Mualim to give the morning announcements. ------------------------------------------------------------------- ~Nintendo High School: Principal's Office~ Once the bell rang, Al Mualim switched on his speakers to make the morning announcements. "Good morning, Nintendo High School. Today is Friday, September 6th, 2013. Barely any announcements today," Al Mualim's voice spoke throughout the school, "Registration for new students has ended as of yesterday, and won't resume until the next semester. Also, I would like to ask students using the parking lot to please park properly. I've had several complaints over the past week from teachers having a hard time to park because some students take two parking spots. So to the students who park, I ask you, please, park properly, because I don't want to have to revoke your privilege to use the parking lot. And finally, as a reminder to students who will be 18 years old by Election Day, you are highly encouraged to register to vote. It is your constitutional right and your opportunity to take part in the election process. Thank you all, and have a wonderful day." ----------------------------------------------------------------------- ~Nintendo High School: Government Classroom~ Once Al Mualim's announcements ended, Rose faced her class, and said, "Well, good morning everyone. If you can all please pass your homework forward, we'll get started on today's lesson, which, coincidentally, involves the very same election process Al Mualim mentioned." ----------------------------------------------------------------------- ~Nintendo High School: Pokemon Battling Classroom~ Once Al Mualim's announcements ended, Professor Oak faced his class, saying, "Hello there, everyone. Today's lesson will continue our discussion on type advantages and disadvantages. Though we'll be changing it up by involving type changes when a Pokemon changes its form. But first, let's start with attendance. Eddy?" "Here," Eddy replied as he raised his hand. --------------------------------------------------------------------- ~Nintendo High School: English Classroom~ Once Al Mualim's announcements ended, John Smith faced his class, saying, "Good morning, class. As I mentioned to you before, today we'll start reading Charles Dickens' 'A Tale of Two Cities'. Before we get to that, attendance. Beat?"

"Present," Joshua replied as he too raised his hand. ---------------------------------------------------------------------- ~Nintendo High School: Advanced Calculus Classroom~ "Indeed, sir," Sully said to himself after hearing Al Mualim encourage older students to register to vote.

"Yup," Clemont replied as he raised his hand. ------------------------------------------------------------------------ ~Nintendo High School: Music Classroom~ Once Al Mualim's announcements ended, Yen Sid turned to face his students, saying, "Good morning to all of you.

"Yes," Connor, Dick, and other students replied. "Good," Wayne said, "Now, let's start." ------------------------------------------------------------------------- ~Nintendo High School: Chemistry Classroom~ Once Al Mualim's announcements ended, Eraqus and his TA, Axel, faced the class, ready to start with today's subject. "Good morning," Eraqus greeted his class, "Today we'll be continuing our discussion on the atomic structure, which, as you'll know, you will all be quizzed on this Monday. But first, attendance." "Trixie?" Axel called out. "Here," Trixie replied as she raised her hoof. ------------------------------------------------------------------------ ~Nintendo High School: Algebra 2 Classroom~ "Well, looks like someone wants the election to come by so zetta quick," Sho Minamimoto commented after Al Mualim's announcements ended, "'Kay class, let's make this quick.

"Present, sir," Double D replied, raising his hand. -------------------------------------------------------------------------- ~Nintendo High School: Algebra Classroom~ Once Al Mualim's announcements ended, Alastar Moody, faced the class, saying, "Alright class, I hope you're all ready for your first test.
