Fanfic: The Chronicles of Friendly Thunder ๐ŸŒฉ๏ธ Chapter 5

Hey Poptropicans, this is a guest post by Serious Heart. Enjoy!

Hi there, everyone! Itโ€™s Serious Heart with the next chapter of The Chronicles of Friendly Thunder. You can catch up on the last chapter here, or start from the beginning here. Now, letโ€™s get started!

TIMMY FAILURE (continuing to brag):
That kind of advanced detective technique is why I was able to solve this case in the first place, totally unassisted.

NARRATOR:
In the background, Icy Snake is making a disgusted face at the polar bear eating trash.

FRIENDLY THUNDER (automatically):
Wait just one minute. You didnโ€™t solve this case by yourself.

DIZZY CLAW (confused):
He didnโ€™t?

TIMMY FAILURE (arrogantly):
Of course I did! Iโ€™m the greatest detective alive. My case notes prove it.

FRIENDLY THUNDER (speaking so automatically, heโ€™s confusing himself):
Thatโ€™s not how I remember it. Not how I remember it at allโ€ฆ

NARRATOR:
Suddenly, the dream guardian from the prologue, so long ago, I almost forgot him, comes out of nowhere โ€” but only the trio can see him!

DREAM GUARDIAN (apologetically):
Sorry. I have to do this.

NARRATOR:
Quickly, he transports the trio back to shortly before the events they are seeing now, happened!

ICY SNAKE (dazed):
Where are weโ€ฆ?

NARRATOR:
The trio stumble over to the left โ€” to encounter Timmy Failure himself!

TIMMY FAILURE:
You three there! Newcomers! Step lightly. There are evil doings afoot!

DIZZY CLAW (remembering Dr. Hare and hilariously comparing it to him):
Such as?

TIMMY FAILURE:
Someone stole my pants!

ICY SNAKE:
Weโ€™llโ€ฆ be careful, I guess.

TIMMY FAILURE:
You threeโ€™ll need to be more than that. Since you three are new around here, youโ€™re the only people I can trust. Will you help me collar the criminal?

FRIENDLY THUNDER:
Far be it from us to stand idly by while a pants thief terrorizes this fair city.

DIZZY CLAW (chirping up):
Plus, we once stopped a villainous pink bunny that wanted to take over the world! You can trust us!

TIMMY FAILURE:
Great. Weโ€™ll have to split up, but Iโ€™ll leave pages from my detective log around to help you out… To start with, you may want to investigate my former business partner. (dramatically) His loyalty is in question.

FADE OUT.

And โ€” letโ€™s wrap this chapter up! Will Timmy Failure find his pants, with help from Friendly Thunder and company? Who is the mysterious Dream Guardian? Youโ€™ll have to tune in to find out!

Fanfic: Zombies, Zombies, ALWAYS ZOMBIES! ๐ŸงŸ Ep. 19: Cheese and Crackers

Hey Poptropicans, this is a guest post by Magic Kid. Enjoy!

Howdy! I have randomly appeared yet again with another episode in: Zombies, Zombies, ALWAYS ZOMBIES!

Alrighty, if you’re new here and wanna start from the beginning, reach the very first episode here. But if you just need to catch the last one, you can read the previous one here!

As I planned for this story to have around 20 episodes, we’re nearing its end. Iโ€™d advise you to sit back and enjoy this while you can! Maybe get some snacksโ€” not a blueberry smoothie, of course! XD

Episode Nineteen: Cheese and Crackers

Toothpick was at a desk, sorting files. The monotonous task of it seemed even more so with his almost robot-like movements.

He was in a large room with white walls, bright lights, and a small field of desks. Nearly every desk had some sort of half-zombied workers doing something, whether it was typing away at a keyboard, keeping an eye on the live recording of survivors, or some other form of service to Mr. Gambitโ€™s (formerly known as Samuel Brains, in case you missed that episode) Zomberry empire.

They were all as busy as bees.

Worker 1

Finished scanning files A-C! Will now scan files D-G!

Worker 2

Halfway through the task!

Well, they were all as busy as mind-controlled and half-zombied bees.

The files that Toothpick was sorting were all sorts of random documents and folders, one with statistics, one about finance, one about the locations picked to plant the blueberry smoothie machines. Each one was pretty interesting and/or out of date.

But this boring, seemingly uninteresting situation is about to get a little more compelling.

The double-doors banged open. The few workers who glanced up saw Agent Thorn (aka Anita) walking briskly throughย  a row of desks.

She walked past the desks near a small table in the back, where she stopped and turned around. No one was looking at what she was doing. Good.

Fanfic: Seven Systems ๐Ÿช Part 3: The Eye of the Storm

Hey Poptropicans, this is a guest post by HeartOfEnder. Enjoy!

Welcome to Part 3 of Seven Systems! (Read Part 1 here, and Part 2 here.) Now that we have the basic background of the story explained, itโ€™s time for the action.

As a bit of recap, the Red Queen has conquered the seven systems, captured the Astro Knights, and is searching for the fourth Astro Knight. Rumor has it the Baron has started a secret resistance, and Tempest forms an alliance she doesnโ€™t want to make with Rumpel, of all people, to find the Baron andโ€ฆ hopefully save the seven systems.ย 

“Tempest” by HeartOfEnder

THE SEVEN SYSTEMS
Part Three: The Eye of the Storm
(Continued from Part 2)

The Baron-less airship soars through the skies of Poptropica for days and weeks, passing through various islands that havenโ€™t seen travelers and adventurers in years. There are islands of all kinds, from ones inhabited by 8-bit people, ones made out of cogs and copper, and ones covered in snow.ย 

After weeks of traveling, the airship docks on Astro-Knights Island, where knights in black patrol the kingdom of Arturus.

RUMPEL, disguised as a normal Poptropican, looks outside.

RUMPEL:

Oooh, that queen must really want this fourth knight if she has so many of her knights stationed out here.

Fanfic: Zombies, Zombies, ALWAYS ZOMBIES! ๐ŸงŸ Ep. 18: A Late Night Chat

Hey Poptropicans, this is a guest post by Magic Kid. Enjoy!

Hiya there! As you have guessed, itโ€™s Magic Kid, back with the next episode in my fanfiction: Zombies, Zombies, ALWAYS ZOMBIES! If you have no idea whatโ€™s going on and want to start from the beginning, read the first episode here. But if you only just missed the last episode, catch that real quick quick right here.

Have fun reading this! (Y’all I feel so evil right nowโ€ฆ >:D)

Episode Eighteen: A Late Night Chat

It was midnight. The darkness swallowed the island, just as Joe Puddy once swallowed those blueberries. The black clouds that constantly hung over the island were invisible against the starless sky.

The main city of Zomberry Island was dark. The only thing you could see was the occasional yellow eye from a wandering zombie. Groans and moans echoed in the fallen city, like some sort of eerie, off-key song of sorrow.

That was what the main city looked like, but if you went over a huge wall near the edge, you would see something far more interesting than a city of zombies. It looked like the grounds of a sinister hospital, dark buildings with windows that glowed purple, and occasionally green. People in neat suits, lab coats, or modern-core armor walked briskly with purpose from location to location.

Below all this in a prison with concrete walls and floors, the three friends waited in their cell. Waiting, waiting, waiting. What they were waiting for, they were unsure about. The note was vague but promised answers. It was the only hope they had.

Hawk (whispering)

Why hasnโ€™t someone come? I would’ve thought that someone would be here by now.

Stone (whispering too)

Yeah, they said โ€œtonightโ€, they didnโ€™t say what time. Itโ€™s not like we have a clock in here, anyway.

Birdy (also whispering)

They canโ€™t be much longer.

Fanfic: Seven Systems ๐Ÿช Part 2: Uneasy Alliance

Hey Poptropicans, this is a guest post by HeartOfEnder. Enjoy!

Happy 2024 to everyone! This year so far has already been a wild ride for us Poptropicans, from membership essentially removed from the game, to the chaotic shutdown hoax from last month, the community going crazy, and Poptropica moving to Coolmath Games. Itโ€™s definitely been a wild ride of events considering weโ€™re only one month into 2024.ย 

Hereโ€™s Part 2 of my fanfic, Seven Systems. If you read my Baron theory posts from 2022 (here and here), then everything mentioned here should be familiar to you. Be sure to catch Part 1 here if you haven’t yet!

“Tempest” by HeartOfEnder

THE SEVEN SYSTEMS
Part Two: Uneasy Alliance
(Continued from Part 1)

TEMPEST is dragged down into a dark room, so dark she couldn’t even see your own hands in front of you. In the darkness, she could hear the sound of engines running and the airship moving up, as if it was taking off right this secondโ€ฆ

TEMPEST:

Wait! Whereโ€™s Amelia? What do you want with me? 

Thereโ€™s no answer. TEMPEST lets out a low-pitched growl, her ears twitching to catch any and all sound around her. Most of the sound was covered up by the loud engines, but there seemed to be another sound hiding from her. A twinkle of magic.ย 

TEMPEST: 

Where are you? 

The yellow eyes from earlier appeared in front of her. TEMPEST picked up a chair that happened to be nearby and threw it at the pair of eyes. There was a loud roar that followed shortly after, and the darkness dispelled to revealโ€”
