Out With the Old

Out With the Old is the twelfth episode of Young Plumbers: Generations and the sixty fourth episode overall of Earth-19.

Plot
[The camera shows the Phantom's Nest floating above a castle on Aldabarbaria. The camera quickly cuts aboard the ship to the captured team. They are in cells, but not in stasis. They could be talking with each other, but none of them are. Each prisoner has his or her own cell. Several Aldabarbarian guards are patrolling the hallway.]

[Aldabarbarian #1]: (My shift?)

[Aldabarbarian #2]: (Yeah, I'm done for the day.)

[One of the guards exits as the other three continue to patrol the hallway. The camera shows a part of the ceiling. Someone within the air ducts removes a panel from the ceiling and then launches a chain down at one of the guards, electrocuting him. The guards turn and look, but the figure drops down behind them. She roundhouses one and then punches the other in the gut and knocks him to the ground. The figure is female and is dressed in all black, with a mask on her face. She approaches the cell with Sci in it and then starts punching numbers into the control panel for said cell. On the inside, Sci looks worried. Eventually, the door to the cell opens and the figure walks inside.]

[Sci]: What do you--

[There is the sound of a mask dropping to the ground.]

[Sci]: Kali? Really?

[The camera shows Kali standing across from Sci.]

[Kali]: Hornbok sent me...

[Sci]: One person to break all of us out?

[Kali]: One person to prepare you for how this is going to work.

[Sci]: Explain...

[Kali]: Well, Hornbok and Nick came up with the plan...

[The camera cuts to the castle beneath the ship. Phantress is sitting on the throne, monitoring security footage. She notices the open cell door and a figure inside the cell, with three knocked out guards on the ground.]

[Phantress]: Don't stop them... Let them think they're winning... They're confused, but it's all part of the plan... We need them to start a war, in order to dissolve the treaty, and breaking out their team is clearly an act of war...

[The camera cuts back to the cells. Sci looks at Kali with a disappointed look.]

[Kali]: You don't like the plan?

[Sci, angry]: I don't like the plan...

[Kali]: Blame Nick, he came up with the part about... Actually, he made most of the plan... Hornbok only thought of bringing Tennyson in to help...

[Sci, angry]: Yeah, that's the best part...

[Kali]: Well, would you rather stay here?

[Sci]: Just go ahead with the plan... Are you letting the others know?

[Kali]: You can tell them... I'll see you soon...

[She hugs him and then stands up and puts on the mask. It turns her into an Aldabarbarian guard. She closes the cell door and then walks out of the room. Sci looks around the room and sees that most of the recruits are either sleeping or blocked from his range of vision. Farrin, directly across from him, and Bink, to the left of him from his point of view, are the only ones he can talk to.]

[Sci]: Did you hear the plan?

[Farrin]: I heard the plan... I guess it's okay...

[Bink]: I don't like the plan...

[Sci]: I don't either, but I think it will work... It's the best shot we have to escape...

[Suddenly, the door to the cell wing opens and the Phantress walks in with several guards. She stands in front of Sci and grimaces at him. She then turns to the guards.]

[Phantress]: (Take these away and then get one guard for each cell.)

[She turns back to the prisoners.]

[Phantress]: And for every team member of yours who I find on this ship... One of you dies...

[She exits the room as the guards start their task.]

[Theme Song]

[The camera shows the inside of a Plumbers' ship. It is floating in Aldabarbaria's atmosphere, just above the Phantom's Nest, and it is cloaked. The entire team, all the Magisters, Lorak, and Ben Tennyson are on the ship.]

[Hornbok]: I'm not going to explain again... Team, go, and remember what you have to do...

[Nick opens a warp portal using a small orb and then the entire team walks through and the warp closes behind them. The camera cuts to somewhere in the hull of the Phantom's Nest.]

[Water]: This is ridiculous! Why couldn't we have warped right into the prison wing...

[Nick]: We have no idea how many guards there are in there... We warped here because it would most likely be empty, which it is...

[Jack]: So we make our way to the prison wing?

[Nick]: Maybe Hornbok should have reminded us of the plan... Will, Cassie, Aevan, Water, Ben and I are going to the prison wing... The rest of you are going to the command room of the ship. Toon, you're in charge... Got it?

[Toon]: Got it...

[Toon takes his team through one door in the room the team arrived in. They find themselves in a hallway with several guards standing at the other end. They jump into action as the camera cuts to the previous room. Nick begins to lead his team out in the other direction as they hear the fight going on in the original direction.]

[Nick]: Alright, let's move...

[They exit the first room and then run down the hallway. The door at the end of the hallway opens and several guards enter the room. Aevan launches his shadow and takes out all but one of the guards. Will quickly teleports and then kicks the guard down from behind. The others past as Will turns around and makes sure they aren't being followed as they head through the door.]

[Will]: I thought there would be more guards...

[Ben]: We just got here. Give them time...

[They walk down to the end of the hallway, which forms a "T" with another hallway. They look to either direction. The door to the left opens, and all the recruits back away from the intersection. Ben launches a sonic scream, taking out all the guards.]

[Nick]: We're heading to the left...

[Cassie]: The guards came from left, we should go right...

[Nick]: We already took out some of the guards on the left side, though... We're going left...

[They turn to the left and then head through the door. The hallway curves around to the right.

[Aevan]: I've got this...

[He slowly walks down the hallway and then looks around the corner. The guards around the corner jump into action. Aevan launches his shadow, but it only hits two guards. One guards jumps over Aevan and then fires blasts out of a weapon at the others. Cassie absorbs some of the energy and blasts it back, knocking down most of the guards. One guards jumps over and blasts at the team, but Nick fires a stream of acid, burning some of his armor. He then kicks the guard to the ground and continues forward. They head through the door and makes it to a weird looking room.]

[Cassie]: Is this the cell room?

[Figure]: It's one of them...

[The camera shows Abbaddon, walking out of an open cell he was lurking in.]

[Abbaddon]: Your friends are in the room behind here...

[Nick]: I'm done playing games... We're fighting on our own terms...

[He looks behind him and nods his head before charging at Abbaddon. He jumps over him and then spins around and sweep kicks Abbaddon in the legs. Abbaddon bounces off of his hands and lands on his feet. He grabs Nick's arm and then flips over him before flipping Nick over towards the other recruits. He spins to turn his back to the recruits and then blasts electricity at them. Cassie absorbs some of it, but she can't handle all of it. Will jumps forward and appears behind Abbaddon with a teleport. He rushes at him, but Abbaddon jumps backwards over him and then blasts him with electricity.]

[Ben]: He's trying to fight us one at a time... We have to fight together...

[He looks at Water.]

[Water]: Create a diversion...

[Ben]: No, you should create one...

[Cassie]: How about you both create a diversion for me?

[Ben]: Fine...

[Water]: Will this work?

[He charges at Abbaddon and punches at him, but he ends up punching the ground in front of him. Ben jumps over Water and then flies over as he blasts a sonic scream at him. Abbaddon shuts his eyes for a moment, allowing Cassie to blast him with her absorbed energy. She drops to a knee, and then charges the floor with electricity, shocking Cassie, Water, and Aevan. Will teleports and lands as he collides with Abbaddon, knocking him back and cutting off the electricity stream. Nick lands and then punches at Abbaddon, but he avoids. Ben jumps and roundhouses Abbaddon, in the face, dropping him to the ground. Will quickly handcuffs him and then places a inhibitor collar around his neck, neutralizing his powers. They throw Abbaddon into the cell he was hiding in. Water then stands up and bends the walls of the cell, trapping him inside. He stands up, and his face can barely be seen from inside the bent cell.]

[Nick]: Got anything to say?

[Abbaddon]: Not to any of you...

[Water]: Want me to guard him?

[Nick]: He's not going anywhere...

[Water]: You'll just be in the next room, right?

[Nick]: Okay, stay here... We'll be right back...

[Nick leads the rest of the team to the door as the camera cuts to Toon's team arriving in the command room for the ship. It is surprisingly empty.]

[Zon]: Okay, now what?

[Toon]: We wait for Nick to give us the signal and then we send the ship on a course for a crash landing.

[Figure]: Thanks for the heads up...

[Thebes stands up from the command chair as it spins around.]

[Thebes]: You may crash the ship, but you won't escape it...

[Zon]: You're going to stop us?

[Thebes]: Never...

[He blasts a stream of dark fire at them, blocking off their path of attack. Brian jumps up and turns into a falcon and then lands and turns his arms into swords. He slashes them at Thebes, who blocks with a real sword. He knocks Brian back, but Nar jumps in and starts to hack at Thebes with his katanas. He slashes with his left, but Thebes avoids and then slashes. Nar counters with his right and then pulls his swords back and roundhouses at Thebes. He avoids but drops back onto a knee. He blasts dark fire at Nar, knocking him back. Rob slashes his sword at Thebes, knocking him back against the wall. He turns to the side to avoid a punch from Rob, but he then gets hit to the ground by a blast of green energy from Zon. Jack encloses Thebes in a wall of electricity. Thebes drops his sword and puts his hands up as he takes a moment to catch his breath.]

[Toon]: I'm confused... Didn't he just say that he doesn't want to stop us?

[Thebes]: I don't want to stop you... There's nothing to be confused about...

[Jack]: Then why are you here Thebes?

[Thebes]: I can't just answer every question you ask! It ruins the fun...

[Brian]: Keep him there while we wait for Nick's signal...

[Jack nods his head as the camera cuts to the cells. Most of the guards have been knocked to the ground. Aevan jumps and kicks at one, but then gets blasted at by another. Cassie blasts energy at this one and then Will kicks a guard that was approaching Cassie. Nick blasts the last one with acid and then kicks him, knocking him to the ground.]

[Nick]: Okay, that's all of them...

[Aevan]: Wait, there's one more...

[Aevan charges at the last guard, but Will knocks him to the side.]

[Will]: Didn't you listen to the plan...

[The final guard takes of a mask, revealing her to be Kali.]

[Aevan]: Right, my bad...

[Kali walks over to Sci's cell and begins to unlock it.]

[Kali]: Thanks Will...

[Will]: Don't mention it...

[Cassie grabs his hand now that there is a moment of rest. Sci's cell door opens and Sci walks out of the cell. He hugs Kali and then breaks away.]

[Sci]: We can catch up later, we've got a time limit...

[Nick]: Should I send the signal?

[Sci]: Yes, two minutes at the most...

[Nick takes out his badge and contacts both Hornbok and Toon as Kali goes to unlock the other cells.]

[Nick]: Two minutes... We'll be done in two minutes...

[Hornbok, voice]: Got it...

[Toon, voice]: Thanks...

[Nick puts his badge away and sees that Bink, Roy, Ray, Paul, Holly, and Chris are all out of their cells. He sees a unit in the wall holding some of the recruits' belongings, mainly Ray's lamp and Paul's gauntlet, but also Roy's equipment and all the badges. He breaks open the unit and picks up the gear, handing everything back to its original owner. Paul slips his gauntlet back on.]

[Paul]: Thanks guys... We owe you one...

[Nick]: No you don't... We had to rescue you...

[By now, everyone is out of their cells.]

[Sci]: Let's move Nick...

[Nick]: Okay, Water's in the room right over here...

[Nick walks over to the door as everyone follows him. In the next room, he finds Water and Abbaddon in the middle of a fight. Water jumps and kicks at Abbaddon, but he electrocutes Water to the ground.]

[Abbaddon]: Oh, was I supposed to stay in my cell? Sorry about that...

[Nick]: Let's go! We're wasting t--

[Suddenly, there is a huge explosion from within the ship. Everything is engulfed in the flames as the camera shows the Phantom's Nest crashing into the surface below, with all at least that group of recruits still on it.]

[Commercial]

[The camera cuts down to the castle on Aldabarbaria. Phantress is sitting on the throne, with several guards around her.]

[Phantress]: Stay quiet...

[She brings up a holographic screen and then waits a few moments and eventually Hornbok appears.]

[Hornbok, angry]: Phantress...

[Phantress]: You blew up my ship...

[Hornbok]: Do you--

[Phantress]: That's an act of war...

[Hornbok]: I don't--

[Phantress]: Consider the treaty dissolved..

[Hornbok]: I don't understand... Maybe we should talk in person...

[Phantress]: How about no?

[The door to the throne room bursts open, and all the Magisters and Lorak walk into the room. A hologram of Phantress can be seen above Hornbok's badge.]

[Hornbok]: How about yes?

[Phantress]: Why didn't you warn me about this?

[Guard]: You told us to stay quiet...

[Phantress]: You're all fired...

[Slick]: You go ahead and dissolve the treaty... But there will be no war...

[Phantress]: Yes, there will be a war...

[Ivada]: Maybe, but it will end today...

[Ivada runs at Phantress and blasts a stream of ice at her, freezing her to her throne. She breaks the ice layer and then draws an electric whip for each arm as she stands up from her throne.]

[Phantress]: Fine, if the war is going to end today then it is going to end with your deaths...

[She launches one of the whips at Ivada, but he jumps to avoid, before being grabbed and electrocuted by the second whip. Phantress pulls Ivada in with the whip and then kicks him in the chest, knocking him backwards into the other Magisters. They all avoid, but Phantress uses their scattering as a chance to attack. She whips at Slick, but he grabs it and tries to pull Phantress towards him before he gets electrocuted. Phantress stumbles forward, but then launches the other whip at Slick, knocking him to the ground. She retracts her whips and then whips one at Kruto and the other at Relgo as they rush up to attack her. She grabs them by the arm and tries to them hurdling toward each other, but their momentum puts them on a path for a three way collision with her. She jumps to avoid and then electrocutes the two Magisters as the collide with each other.]

[Phantress]: You fight like children...

[Lorak]: Do we...?

[Hornbok and Lorak rush forward. Lorak charges his arms with electricity and then catches both whips as Phantress launches them at him. He magnetizes himself to the ground and then pulls on the whips, keeping Phantress occupied so Hornbok can kick her in the face. She falls back and lets go of the whips. Lorak then steps back throws the whips to the side. Phantress slowly gets up as Hornbok rushes at her and punches her back. His next punch gets caught by Phantress and she throws him back, but Lorak stops him. Jopius forms a golden energy sword and then jumps over Lorak and Hornbok and throws the sword at Phantress. It explodes in an energy attack, making Phantress slide back.]

[Jopius]: The three of us don't fight like children. Them, not so much...

[Phantress]: You three alone can't defeat me, though...

[Hornbok]: I'm sure that we can...

[They continue to fight as the camera cuts to Toon's team on the Plumbers' ship, looking at the crashed Phantom's Nest below.]

[Toon]: Okay, we have to go down there... Nick's team never made it off the ship... They would be back by now if they did...

[Nar]: What's the plan?

[Toon]: We don't need a plan... The team needs rescuing, and we know where they are... It's not too complicated...

[The camera cuts down to the ground below. The crashed Phantom's Nest has practically been split into two, right near the prison wing. Everyone who was in the prison wing is now unconscious. The Plumbers' ship lands and the rest of the team gets out. They run towards the wreckage and see the unconscious recruits, as well as Abbaddon, Farrin, Sci, Bink, and Kali.]

[Rob]: Oh, this does not look good...

[Jack]: Of course Abbaddon attacked... Thebes attacked, too...

[Zon]: He probably prevented them from getting out...

[Rob]: What should we do?

[Toon]: We don't know how serious they're injured... Let's start carrying them off to the ship... Brian and Rob, you two get the stretchers, Zon and Jack, you watch the team... Nar, we've got to make sure no one disturbs us... Everyone got that?

[Everyone seems to understand.]

[Toon]: Then execute!

[Brian and Rob head back to the ship to get the stretchers. Zon walks over to Sci and tries to wake him up as Jack does the same thing with Paul. Brian brings the stretcher over to Sci and Zon helps get Sci onto the stretcher as they carry him away. Jack and Rob carry Paul onto the ship. Suddenly, several Aldabarbarian soldiers arrive at the sight of the crash. Toon and Nar look at each other and then jump into action. Toon creates a wall of fire between the group and then Aldabarbarians. Nar begins to take down the few guards that get through the wall. As they fight, the other four team members continue to bring the unconscious team members onto the ship, and the camera cuts to the castle. Jopius gets knocked back by Phantress as his golden energy shield gets dispelled. Lorak kicks Phantress but then gets thrown back into Hornbok as they both fall to the ground. Slick gets up and punches at Phantress, but she avoids. He swings his leg at her and then kicks her in the face. She uppercuts him and then roundhouses him, stopping his attack. He tries again with a swing kick, but she catches him and then twists him around and flips him over.]

[Phantress]: Can anyone stand against me?

[There is silence.]

[Phantress]: No? Alright then...

[She turns around to sit at her throne when there is a sludge-like sound on the ground.]

[Phantress]: Who's there?

[She turns around and then gets knocked back as Ben Tennyson, as Goop, whips himself at her. He stands across from her as she regains her balance.]

[Goop]: Sorry I'm late...

[Commercial]

[Phantress]: Apologize to them, not me...

[She points out the unconscious Magisters and Lorak.]

[Goop]: I wasn't apologizing... I was making an entrance...

[He whips at Phantress, and she tries to catch him, but he's too fast. He slides around and up her arms and then oozes off her back. He turns around and then catches her punch and then pulls her backwards until he can spin around and smash her into the wall. She grabs his anti-gravity projector and then throws it aside. Goop drips to the ground and then Tennyson quickly transforms into Fourarms and cracks all four of his knuckles.]

[Fourarms]: Why'd you have to go and do that?

[Phantress]: Don't pretend like you're winning this fight...

[Fourarms]: Can I just actually win it instead?

[He punches her with both his left arms. She stumbles back and then Fourarms punches with both his right arms. She smacks into the wall and then shakes her head and holds her hand up to it. Ivada also begins to wake up as he notices Fourarms in the room.]

[Ivada]: Tennyson!? About time you showed up...

[Fourarms]: I could use some help...

[Ivada]: Right...

[As Phantress tries to regain her balance and breath, Ivada freezes her over as she falls unconscious. Slowly, the other Magisters begin to awake as well.]

[Relgo]: Ugh, what happened?

[Fourarms]: Phantress happened...

[Hornbok]: We need to get out of here, find the team, and head back to the Academy.

[Jopius]: It shouldn't be too hard...

[The camera cuts to Nar and Toon fighting off the horde of Aldabarbarian soldiers. Toon blasts a wave of fire at a bunch of soldiers and several of his clones take the soldiers on hand-to-hand. One clone roundhouses a soldier and another blasts his own fire at two other soldiers. Nar slices up one soldier's armor and then jumps and kicks another in the face. He cuts off the armor of another one and then holds his swords together to block an energy beam from another soldier's weapon. Behind them, most of the team has been moved onto the ship, except for Farrin and Ray. Ray seems to wake up as Brian and Zon arrive to take him away on a stretcher.]

[Ray]: Where am I?

[He looks around him and sees the fight in front of him with Brian and Zon standing next to him.]

[Brian]: Are you okay?

[Ray]: The last thing that I remember is being on that big ship... There was a lot of shaking... And we were near Aldabarbaria... Then nothing...

[Brian]: We can explain once we're back at the Academy...

[The fight continues as Toon smacks one soldier with his arm and then jumps and kicks another soldier. More and more soldiers start to get through the fire wall; these soldiers appear to have more advanced armor. Two soldiers begin to blast at Toon. He blasts fire back at them, but this doesn't stop their attack. Nar is approached by three other soldiers, allowing the rest of the soldiers to move in on the others. Jack jumps forward electrocuting one soldier, but the others are not deterred. Rob slashes the armor of one and then punches another soldier back. He jumps to punch a third, but a fourth soldier blasts him with an energy beam.]

[Ray]: I've got this...

[Brian]: No, you're injured...

[Ray]: I can help...

[He makes his suit appear and stands up forms two large white energy swords. He slices through one guard's armor and then throws the sword at another, cutting open the armor as the sword dispels. The other sword changes into a large hammer as he swings it around, knocking all the guards back. Some of the guards fall to the ground.]

[Ray]: I can hold them off, just get ready to leave...

[The six other than Ray carry Farrin onto the ship as Ray forms an energy blaster and begins firing at the guards. Once they are all on the ship, Ray forms an energy wall and pushes all the soldiers back. He then turns around and flies towards the ship, but Abbaddon grabs him by the leg and throws him back away from the ship. Ray slowly gets up, but then Thebes jumps at him and tries to slice him with a sword, but Ray blocks with an energy shield.]

[Paul]: He needs help!

[Paul forms his armor around him and then flies out of the ship. He flies directly into Abbaddon and knocks him to the ground. As the soldiers begin to move towards the ship, more and more of the new recruits begin to jump into the fight. Roy begins to blast at all the soldiers with his laser blaster. Chris helps by blasting many of the guards with electric and fire attacks. Figy sends energy blasts at more of the guards, and then shrinks down to fight more of them. He speeds in circles around a group, knocking them out. Harry punches one soldier and then gets blasted by another, but Ahmad takes care of that guard for him. He blasts another soldier with electricity as the attack begins to slow down. Holly jumps out from between two as they collide with each other. She then jumps and kicks another in the face. One soldier starts blasts at her, but she avoids the attacks and then pushes the guard backwards into several others. As the fight continues, the camera cuts to inside the ship. Sci, Bink, and Farrin have all woken and are watching the new recruits fight off the guards.]

[Sci]: They've really improved...

[Farrin]: They're taking care of the guards... And Ray and Paul aren't having too much trouble with Thebes and Abbaddon.

[The camera shows this fight. Ray and Thebes slash their sword at each other as Abbaddon blasts electricity at Paul. He forms a sonic shield to block the electricity and then turns his fists into hammers and uses them to smack Abbaddon. Thebes jumps and slashes at Ray, knocking him back, before turning and blasting dark fire, surrounding Paul.]

[Sci]: But they still need some help...

[Sci tries to get up, but Kali keeps him down.]

[Kali]: Let us take care of it...

[The camera goes back to Paul, who flies out of the dark fire circle and then punches at Thebes. His sword clashes against his armor, but it then recoils off and goes flying out of his hand. Thebes runs over to get it, but Kali roundhouses him in the face as he tries to do so. He falls to the ground as a bit of blood trickles from his lip. He blasts dark fire at Kali, but Toon blocks with a stream of fire. Kali jumps over the fire attacks and then kicks Thebes in the face, knocking him down.]

[Thebes]: I didn't sign up to fight either of you...

[Toon]: Well then why'd you sign up?

[Thebes]: I'll never tell...

[Toon]: Then don't bring it up...

[Thebes jumps up and then blasts dark fire at Toon and Kali. Toon blocks them with a fire shield, but he soon dispels it and sees that Thebes is behind them, making his way to the ship, having picked his sword back up]

[Toon]: This is a disaster...

[Kali]: Tell me about it...

[As Thebes approaches the ship, Zon turns into his Vulpimancer form and tries to tackle him, but Thebes block with a dark fire attack. He blasts fire at Zon, knocking him back as Rob jumps in with a sword downward attack. Thebes puts his sword perpendicular to Rob's, blocking the attack. Rob punches underneath Thebes' sword, knocking him to the ground. He slices at him, cutting open Thebes' armor. Behind them, Abbaddon continues to fight Paul. He blasts electricity at him, stunning him and making Paul's armor open up so he has an easier time breathing. He punches at Abbaddon, who blocks the punch. He continues to block more and more punches from Paul until he gets surprised by a roundhouse, which knocks him to the ground. Thebes and Abbaddon get back to back as all the people who were fighting them surround them. The other recruits continue to fight the soldiers as the Magisters arrive on the scene, having saw the last part of the fight. Thebes and Abbaddon notice the Magisters.]

[Abbaddon]: Time to go...

[He drops a smoke bomb, surrounding them and blocking off the others. Thebes opens a warp as the two step into it. The warp closes as the smoke clears.]

[Zon]: Gone, as usual...

[With some of the fight still going on, the soldiers begin to back away as they notice that the Magisters have arrived. One by one, they begin to run back towards the castle. The recruits stand at ease, and look to the Magisters.]

[Roy]: So, we're not in trouble?

[Jopius]: Why would you be in trouble... This wasn't your fault at all...

[Slick]: In fact you did a great job...

[Hornbok]: I'd prefer if we debrief when we get back to the Academy...

[The camera cuts to the Academy. The entire team is in the Magister's office. They seem to finally be relaxed. All the recruits are back, and everyone can relax knowing that there is no impending mission upon them. Hornbok enters the room with Ben Tennyson, in his human form.]

[Ben Tennyson]: Good working with you again...

[Hornbok]: Same to you... How'd your team doing, by the way?

[Ben Tennyson]: Everyone's great... You're daughter's doing well...

[Hornbok]: Thanks...

[Ben Tennyson]: Take care...

[Ben Tennyson exit the room and closes the door behind him. Hornbok turns to the group.]

[Hornbok]: Well I think we all did a great job...

[He sits down at his chair by his desk.]

[Hornbok]: Except for Ivada...

[Ivada]: Hey!

[Hornbok]: If you can't tell, I'm in a good mood... We all should be in a good mood... Everyone's here and safe...

[Bink]: Paper's not here...

[Roy]: And neither are Sub and Reg...

[Hornbok]: Paper, as you should be well aware, is in prison... Sub is away on a confidential mission, and Reg is visiting his people on their new home... Reg will return in the morning... Sub will be gone for at least another couple of weeks... And Paper... We really don't know...

[Kruto]: Everything is going rather well, but things are far from over...

[Hornbok]: Dismissed...

[One by one, the team exits the office, mostly on by themselves, but Sci leaves with Kali and Will leaves with Cassie. Now, only the Magisters.]

[Relgo]: But what you didn't tell the recruits is that Sub is actually undercover and at the same prison Paper is at...

[Hornbok]: And that's the only thing we didn't tell them, and we're going to keep it that way...

[As Hornbok and the other Magisters continue to talk, the camera cuts to Aldabarbaria. Phantress breaks out of her ice casing as a warp opens in front of her. Thebes and Abbaddon step out of the warp as it closes.]

[Phantress]: What took you so long?

[Thebes]: We made a side stop...

[Phantress]: Where?

[Abbaddon]: Doesn't matter... We're here to request assistance...

[Phantress]: You want someone to help you two? I'm sorry... I don't have anybody...

[Figure]: I believe I may be of some assistance...

[Dexis steps into the light.]

[Thebes]: Who's going to help us, Dexis...

[Dexis]: I'll find someone, but for now, you've been replaced...

[Thebes and Abbaddon seem to not be sure of what he means, and they look at each other in suspicion. The camera cuts to black.]

[The End]
