“The Villain Saga” – Episode 6, Part 2

(Table of contents) (See previous)

CUT TO RAVEN and WIDOWโ€™S prison cells again. From both sides of the wall between the cells, we can see that both are sitting on their beds, WIDOW listening to the end of RAVENโ€™S story.

RAVEN

Andโ€ฆyeah.

(conโ€™t)

One of the people here undid the hypnosis on me, and thatโ€™s it.

WIDOW

Ah. That’s…a lot.

RAVEN

Pff. It’s okay, most people don’t know what to say either.

(He leans back on his bed, staring at the ceiling.)

I sure don’t know what to think.

FADE IN.

We open inside the window of a shop. A couple dusty toys are on display, but thereโ€™s a shiny, new ninja robot in the center of them all, with all kinds of buttons to do different actions.

A small girl with short, unruly black hair peeks into the window, gasping with joy when she sees the toy is still in stock.

CUT TO CRAWFISH, sitting in the medical ward. Heโ€™s taking a close look at pretty much every item in sight as the doctors try to corral him to the table.

CRAWFISH

Whatโ€™s this? Why do you have so many hollow ropes?

DOCTOR #1

Theyโ€™re just tubes, ignore those theyโ€™re notโ€“

CRAWFISH

Why are all of you wearing white? Donโ€™tโ€™cha think a darker color would be better with all the mess?

DOCTOR #2

It helps us notice any stains, nowโ€“

CRAWIFSH

Yea, thatโ€™s my point. You can simply hide it!

The DOCTORS all grimace.

Halloween Habiliments and Homepage ๐ŸŽƒ

(Hey, I used a big word!)

Hello Poptropicans! Following up on the earlier Halloween costume peeks, we’re now bringing you the final four of the six September costume contest winners. Plus, stick around for more October chaos!

For our winners we have: Candle Cat by White Moon, Flowy Man by Happy Chicken, Jellyfish by the PHB’s own Purple Paw, and Zombie Redcoat by Magic Poptropican. Purple Paw tells us their design was submitted many months ago and Poptropica must be digging into their archives โ€” but hey, as long as we’re getting some good ones!

Anyway, congratulations to the winners! Soon others will be wearing your designs across the game.

Perhaps these costumes will give you inspiration or even parts for yours! There’s still plenty of time to enter the PHB’s Halloween costume contest, open till Oct 29. Alas, I wish I could take part, but Smart Bubbles is currently in the middle of a fight with Dr. Hare. ๐Ÿ˜›

“Zombie Redcoat” seems to share similarities with this revolutionary from PoptropiCon… great minds think alike?

Poptropica is entering fully into spooky season now, and we even have a new background for the login screen! I have to admit, I’m digging those reds… reminds me of Vampire’s Curse Island.

If you’re an artist looking for ideas for your own work, check out Poptober, our daily drawing prompts for the month of October! Even if you’re starting late, it’s okay to go at your own pace, or picking whatever prompts inspire you.

Happy creating!

FADE IN.

We open on a wide shot displaying Erewhon Prison. Itโ€™s a rare non-stormy day, where bits of sunlight can actually be seen through the fog. The island is in perpetual shadow, but you can just barely tell itโ€™s afternoon.

CUT TO inside the prison, on the first floor near the doors. Only a couple guards are stationed there, one sleeping and the other playing a game of solitaire on a work computer.

The camera heads to the elevator, then speeds up the building. We at last arrive at Floor 13, where a guard is leading DR. HARE into the medical and testing side. The doors to JUPITERโ€™S strange machinery remain closed and locked.
