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

(Start from the prologue, or continue from Case Two)

Even though it was hard getting out of Tiny Axe’s office, Anna still had to rescue her. Anna was a little nervous, though, because she didn’t know what Tiny Axe was like, and she didn’t know what the mysterious bandit might do to her.

ANNA: “I should bring some case files, you never know if the bandit is under cover.”

She grabs a new case file and writes: “The mystery of the mysterious bandit.”

ANNA: “Now I can go save Tiny Axe!”

Anna hurriedly sprints to the elevator, and it goes down slloooowly.

ANNA: “I really should have just used the stairs!”

The elevator lands and just as Anna steps out — BOOM! The elevator bursts into pieces, waking the sleeping security guard who never wakes up.

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

Hello! Serious Heart here, with the first episode of It’s the Seriously Good Show! If you didn’t read the prologue, I think you should probably go back and read it here. Now, let’s begin!

Serious Heart walked into the room. “Howdy, people of Mythology Island! Welcome to the first episode of It’s the Seriously Good Show, the chat show where I interview famous and/or smart people! The first person I interview is…”

The audience waited in suspense.

“Gold Bird, owner of the fashion store!” Serious Heart said. The audience clapped politely as Gold Bird walked in.

“Welcome, Gold Bird!” Serious Heart said.

“Thanks, Serious Heart!” Gold Bird said, beaming.

“Well, Gold Bird, how did you become the owner of a world-famous fashion store?” Serious Heart asked.

“Well, I got the job because, I applied, and since no one else wanted the job, I had it! Isn’t it funny, Serious Heart?” Gold Bird exclaimed.

The audience stared at her. Serious Heart looked a little shocked.

“Hahahahahahahaha very funny.” Serious Heart said. He did not look like that was funny at all.

“So, anyway, here is my new outfit! I got it at the Poptropica Department Store!”

“Wow, that’s—” Serious Heart tried to say before Gold Bird cut him off.

“So, my BFF said, ‘Gold, you have to buy that outfit! It’s awesome!’” Gold Bird said.

Some of the audience left. Finally, Gold Bird stopped, due to exhaustion from talking so much. Serious Heart seized his chance to talk.

“What are your favorite clothes?” Serious Heart asked.

Gold Bird looked delighted.

“My silver dress! It costed… 1,291,836 credits!” Gold Bird bragged.

Serious Heart looked pleased that he has finally gotten a chance to ask a question.

And Gold Bird rambled on and on and on, like that, for the rest of the interview, until Serious Heart cut her off before it got too boring.

“Well, that’s it for today! Tune in next time, Poptropicans!” Serious Heart said.

अच्छे समय के लिए चीयर्स,
Serious Heart

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

Greetings! Okay, so last time I kinda maybe went off on a tangent about cake (or start from the very beginning here) and this week I’ll kind of reel my sweet tooth in a notch or two… or eight because we are on episode eight of “Zombies, Zombies, ALWAYS ZOMBIES!!”

Previously, the crew jumped off the blimp in the middle of an insane storm, and now they are on Time Tangled Island! Yay? I use that question mark because of what’s going on there. Oh, no no no, I’m not gonna tell you now, you have to read on to find out.

Over and Out!

Episode Eight: The Lab Thingy

Toothpick is too happy to be on the ground again, and to be safe, that it takes him a moment to realize what is different about Time Tangled.

He coughs a mouthful of ash out and then looks around.

Toothpick

Hawk? Birdy? Are you guys okay?

Birdy is on top of a pile of rubble trying to untangle herself from the parachute, and Hawk walks out from behind a smashed car.

Birdy

Yep.

Hawk

Yeah.

Icy Stone comes around from a large pile of rubble, covered in white ash, like a ghost.

Icy Stone

Oh, I’m fine, thanks for asking.

And then Toothpick realizes that the rubble and ashes were not a part of Time Tangled. The last time he had been to Time Tangled, it was bright, colorful, and in perfect condition. But now… the Party Time Tower was reduced to clumps of concrete, and half-burnt posters…

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

Okay, okay, okay, and we’re back again! (Catch up with the previous chapter here, or start from the beginning here.)

We now know something much more dark and serious is going on, and a new Poptropican has joined the team. They have just escaped from a zombie invasion that paraded the last remaining survivors… and Bosko (I’m so sorry, guys!). But do not fear, because CJ (Shrink Ray Island) gave Jazzy Hawk an idea that could save them all. At least, it could save them all unless the zombies get them first. Prepare for adventure!

Warning: I am not a safety expert (quite the opposite, in fact)! So do not try any of this stuff IRL, because quite frankly, the result will not be satisfactory.

Episode Seven: Lightning and Thunder (and Cake) 

Going to Time Tangled Island is a piece of cake. That is, if the cake rains hard sprinkles of rain and brings winds.

And if you put the cake in the freezer. And some thunder booms loudly. Oh, and the lightning striking dangerously close to the blimp. 

It is not a very pleasant slice of cake, metaphorically speaking. And anyway, I should stop comparing the weather to cake.

Jazzy Hawk

Time Tangled Island should be due south! And anyway, we should be there soon!

Witty Toothpick

I sure do hope soon!

Icy Stone

What do you even want at Time Tangled?

Toothpick glances at Hawk, silently asking if they should share their (well, CJ’s) plan with an outsider.

Hawk isn’t sure. Icy Stone doesn’t exactly give off “I’m A Bad Guy Ready To Turn You To The Zombies” vibes, but doesn’t exactly seem like someone they should trust immediately. 

A split second after Icy Stone asked the question, Hawk does the smallest shake of his head, and Toothpick notices.

Toothpick

Oh, well, we need to stop by Leonardo’s Workshop to, uh, pick up some supplies.

If Icy Stone finds this suspicious, she doesn’t show it. 

Thunder booms again, louder than before.

Clumsy Bird

Uhhh, we should probably land soon.

Hawk

Oh, what the ocean? We can make it to the island! We can make it!

He says “we can make it” twice as though to will the storm to let them make it. They are now shouting over the rain, which is thundering down and down and then—

Birdy

OW!

A large chunk of hail hits her head.

Birdy (continued)

Hail?! Are you kidding me?!

Hawk is at the wheel keeping it from spinning, drenched.

Hawk

HAIL THE HAIL!

Pick

THAT’S NOT FUNNY RIGHT NOW— OH CRUD!

Icy Stone

What?

Hawk turns around and he sees it too. There is a massive dark gray storm cloud with forks of lighting shooting out of it. And they are heading right towards it.

Birdy

CRICKEY! Down down down! 

Hawk is at the wheel, which starts spinning uncontrollably, violently. 

Hawk 

That’s what I’m trying! Birdy, you get that rope and pull it down. Pick, let the air out of the blimp balloon part thingy. And—

Pick

WHAT?! YOU WANT ME TO DO WHAT?!

Hawk

Just do it, we’re right above Time Tangled, alright? 

Birdy pulls the rope, and it turns the motor off. Pick unscrews a secured cap, and slowly the yellow blimp begins to deflate. They’re going down, down, slowly at first, but getting faster and faster.

Toothpick is as pale as the moon. 

Hawk grabs some things from the secret compartment and hands one to each person.

Hawk

Parachutes! Get your stuff, put them on! This is our stop!

Toothpick looks on the verge of a nervous collapse.

Icy Stone

What the heck? What are you doing?

Hawk

The storm is too strong… we’ll repair the blimp when we get there, if the blimp is repairable… Everyone got the parachutes on?

They all nod.

Hawk

Okay, only release your parachutes when I say, okay? We can’t release them too high or the storm will blow us away. Ready?

They are 100 feet from the ground.

Toothpick

Ready.

75 feet.

Clumsy Bird

YEAH! LET’S DO THIS!

50 feet.

Icy Stone

Yep. Let’s go.

20 feet.

Hawk
NOW JUMP AND GO!

They all jump off the crashing blimp and open the parachutes just in time. But despite their parachutes, they thunder to the ground, not noticing what is wrong with Time Tangled Island. Not noticing the ashes around them.

And not noticing the helicopter fly over them, a grin flashing through the tinted glass window.

But at least they are safe… for now.

TO BE CONTINUED

(Wasn’t that a piece of cake?)
