Even though it was hard getting out of Tiny Axeโs office, Anna still had to rescue her. Anna was a little nervous, though, because she didnโt know what Tiny Axe was like, and she didnโt know what the mysterious bandit might do to her.
ANNA: โI should bring some case files, you never know if the bandit is under cover.”
She grabs a new case file and writes: โThe mystery of the mysterious bandit.โ
ANNA: โNow I can go save Tiny Axe!โ
Anna hurriedly sprints to the elevator, and it goes down slloooowly.
ANNA: โI really should have just used the stairs!โ
The elevator lands and just as Anna steps out โ BOOM! The elevator bursts into pieces, waking the sleeping security guard who never wakes up.

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 Iโll kind of reel my sweet tooth in a notch or twoโฆ 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 whatโs going on there. Oh, no no no, Iโm not gonna tell you now, you have to read on to find out.
Over and Out!
ZOMBIES, ZOMBIES, ALWAYS ZOMBIES!
A Zomberry Series
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, Iโm 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 nowโฆ the Party Time Tower was reduced to clumps of concrete, and half-burnt postersโฆ
