Chapter 3 - Episode 1: Primal Carnage

(The episode begins inside a densely-packed forest. We see a group of two Omanyte (Pokemon) and a Kabuto (Pokemon) next to a small stream.)

Omanyte: Omanyte! (We then see Ayla (Chrono) quickly sprint past the screen on all fours. The camera zooms in through the trees as sunlight suddenly pours through. We see a large group of multicolored Yoshis perusing around a large field area in the forest. We see a light blue Yoshi and a pink Yoshi standing next to a pile of fruit. The pink one is holding a Bunger (Bugsnax).)

Bunger: Bunger... (The Yoshi drops it and it scuttles away. The camera pans out to reveal Yoshi [the green one] as the light blue and pink Yoshi wave at him.

Yoshis: Yoshi! (Yoshi waves back.)

Yoshi: Yosh! Yosh! (Yoshi turns around and walks through the makeshift Yoshi village. Multiple colors of Yoshi walk around behind him. Some talk to each other and some are carrying fruit. Yoshi eventually walks up to a lone apple on the ground.) Huh? (He stares at it.) Woah! (Yoshi rears his head and sticks out his tongue.) Blum!

???: Bwah! (We see a Rabbid (Rayman) suddenly leap forward and grab the apple.) Bwahahaha! (We see another Rabbid stick his head out of the bushes.) Hah! (The Rabbid holding the apple chucks it to the other one. He catches it as they run away from the Yoshi village.)

Yoshi: (Angrily.) Hrrrrrn! (The other Yoshis look at Yoshi as he suddenly sprints away in pursuit of the Rabbid. We cut to Yoshi racing through the forest as he leaps onto a large, sleeping creature. Yoshi jumps off of it and continues his pursuit as the creature wakes up, revealing himself to be Gnasty Gnorc.)

Gnasty: Huh?! Who did that?! (He looks around, but Yoshi has already left.) Hrm... (Gnasty gets up, puts on his helmet, and picks up his hammer. He then leaves towards where Yoshi came from.) Huh? (Gnasty looks through the trees and sees the happy Yoshis in their village.) It can't be... dragons?! (Gnasty gets angry and storms into the village, getting the attention of the Yoshis. A few of them walk up to Gnasty.)

Yoshi #1: (Happily.) Yoshi!

Gnasty: I've had just enough of you dragons! (He holds up his hammer as green light emanates from it.) And with no Spyro to save you... (The Yoshis in front of Gnasty are suddenly crystallized, no longer able to move. The other Yoshis begin to panic as they crystallize also.) I'm unstoppable! (All the Yoshis become crystallized as Gnasty points his hammer at the Yoshis' fruit pile.) As for my army... (He shoots a green beam at the fruit pile as the screen goes white. When it turns back, the fruit have all turned into Gnorcs (Spyro the Dragon).) Hahahahaha! (We see a Covenant ship flying towards the ground in the sky behind Gnasty.)

(We cut away to another spot in the forest. We see a large group of male and female Sheargrubs (Pikmin) begin burrowing in the ground as Agumon runs past them. We see Agumon run up a hill and jump down, hitting his fist into the ground. He then gets up and looks around.)

Agumon: Ah? (He begins walking more leisurely as the camera zooms into the trees behind him. We cut away again to see Regina walking through the forest with a pistol at her side. A rustling sound is heard behind her as she points her pistol behind her. A group of three Bulbmin (Pikmin) scurry out of the bush and run away from where Regina is.)

Regina: I need to get out of here. This forest is messing with me. (She continues prowling through the forest. A screech is suddenly heard as Regina stops again. Nothing happens.) Who's there?! (She looks around, still seeing nothing.) Nothing? (Suddenly, three Manic Heads (Jak & Daxter) jump out at Regina and start circling her while screeching.) Gah! (Regina looks back and forth between all the Manic Heads trying to decide which one to shoot. One suddenly pounces at her as she fires her gun, missing the Manic Head. We cut back to Agumon as the gunshots ring out.)

Agumon: That doesn't sound good. (Agumon runs towards the gunfire. We cut back to Regina on the ground as the Manic Heads continue to circle her. One grunts and lunges at her.) Spitfire Blast! (A fireball hits the Manic Head in midair as it flies back into a tree, lying limp on the ground.)

Regina: (Looking back.) Huh? (She sees Agumon.) Another dinosaur? And it talks?

Agumon: (To the Manic Heads.) This is my turf! Get outta here! (The Manic Heads grunt at Agumon as they suddenly rush towards him.) Claw Attack! (Agumon swipes a Manic Head away with his claws. The other Manic Head swipes his claws at Agumon as he's pushed away onto his back.) Ow... (We cut back to Regina as she shoots at the Manic Head that attacked Agumon. Four bullets go into its back as it falls over, dead.)

Regina: Another one down. (The last Manic Head tackles Regina as they both fall onto the ground. The Manic Head swipes into Regina three times. Regina then kicks the Manic Head off of her as she readies her gun. The Manic Head screeches again and begins charging towards Regina.)

Agumon: Pepper Breath! (We see a plume of fire flow into the Manic Head as the camera pans to reveal Agumon creating the flame. The Manic Head falls over.) That'll take care of them. (We hear a gun cocking sound as Agumon looks over to Regina, now pointing her gun at Agumon.)

Regina: Give me one reason why I shouldn't blast your f*cking head wide open.

Agumon: I helped you.

Regina: I haven't had good luck with dinosaurs before.

Agumon: Dinosaur? I'm a Digimon. Agumon to be exact. (Neither of them speak.) I'm not going to hurt you. (Regina puts her gun down.)

Regina: Agumon, huh? (Agumon nods.) I'm Regina. (She gets up.) I'm trying to get out of here.

Agumon: Maybe I can help you. (Agumon smiles.) Follow me! (Agumon runs off. Regina shrugs and sighs.)

Regina: Might as well. (She follows Agumon.)

(We cut to the Covenant ship from before landing in a small clearing in the forest. Ratchet, Clank, the Arbiter, and Earthworm Jim come out of it and look around.)

Arbiter: So, this is the planet where you battled this Master Mind.

Ratchet: Yeah, but, uh... (The camera pans around to see the trees surrounding them.) It looked a bit different last time we were here. (The camera focuses back on Ratchet.) I don't think we landed in the right place, Clank.

Clank: Perhaps not. Let us continue our search on the ship. (Our heroes turn around to face the ship to see a group of five Rabbids taking parts from it.)

Rabbid: Bwahahaha!

Jim: Woah, Nelly! They're scrapping the ship! (The Rabbids continue laughing as they dart off into the forest. Two other Rabbids, one holding an apple, push past our heroes and follow the other Rabbids. Yoshi also runs up and stops when he sees the other heroes. He waves his arms rapidly.)

Yoshi: Yoshi! Yoshi Yoshi Yoshiiiii!

Jim: Anyone understand what this guy is saying?

Clank: (Gets off of Ratchet's back.) Allow me.

Yoshi: Yoshi Yoshi!

Clank: Mhm.

Yoshi: Yoshiiiiii!

Clank: Oh dear.

Arbiter: What is it saying?

Clank: Those creatures took fruit from his village.

Arbiter: So it seems we have a common enemy. If we cannot get those parts back, we will not be able to pursue Master Mind at a sufficient pace. (We see Clank get back onto Ratchet's back.)

Ratchet: We better get going then. (Our heroes run off. The camera zooms back to see a Gnorc watching from the shadows.)

(We cut to a large group of Rabbids partying in the forest. Piles of junk surround them. One Rabbid holds up Eddie (Mega Man) and shakes him. Another Rabbid holds up a glass as the Rabbid pours juice out of Eddie into the glass.)

Rabbid: Bwaaaah! (The Rabbid pours the drink into his mouth. A rustling sound is suddenly heard.) Bwah? (All the Rabbids go silent. Suddenly, an egg flies through the air and hits a Rabbid in the face. It goes into slow motion as the Rabbid falls backwards.)

Rabbid #2: (In slow motion.) Bwaaaaaaaah... (The other Rabbids look to where the egg came from to see our heroes crash through the forest into the area.)

Jim: Expecting us?

Ratchet: Give us back our ship parts!

Yoshi: Yoshi! (A Rabbid points at our heroes.)

Rabbid: Bwaaaaaaah! (All the other Rabbids begin screaming.)

Rabbids: Bwaaaaaaaaah! (The Rabbids surround our heroes. Ratchet hits some away with his Omni-Wrench as Jim shoots at others with his laser gun.)

Jim: There's too many of 'em! We'll never make it!

Ratchet: These guys aren't too strong. (A plunger suddenly hits Ratchet in the head, knocking him over. He gets up with the plunger stuck to his face.) Aw, c'mon! (We cut to the Arbiter shooting at Rabbids with his assault rifle. The camera pans to see Yoshi eat a Rabbid. He turns it into an egg. We then see five Rabbids running towards Yoshi. Yoshi throws the egg as it ricochets off of all five Rabbids. As it hits the fifth one, a 1-up sound plays.)

Yoshi: Yosh Yosh! (A Rabbid throws small punches while running towards Jim. Jim just kicks him over.)

Jim: They were powerful foes, but thankfully we were able to pull through. (Ratchet and the Arbiter walk over to a junk pile to see the ship parts, destroyed.)

Arbiter: Are they repairable?

Ratchet: I'm sorry. I don't think they are. At least not by us.

Arbiter: We will need to find another way.

Yoshi: Yoshi!

Clank: He says there are other Yoshis like him that may help us.

Ratchet: (To Yoshi.) Can you lead the way? (Yoshi nods as a Gnorc suddenly leaps in and hits Yoshi with a club.)

Gnorc: Wrahaha! Looks like one of you got away. (Jim suddenly shoots the Gnorc in the back and it falls down.)

Jim: Weak! (The Gnorc slowly gets up to see Ratchet and the Arbiter pointing their guns at him.)

Ratchet: What do you mean one got away?

Gnorc: Heh. That dragon friend of yours has a lot of friends. Once my boss got a look at 'em, it was all over. They're all statues now. Looks like one got away though. (Yoshi gets a scared expression on his face.)

Yoshi: Wawawawawawawa! (He flails his arms around.)

Ratchet: (To the Arbiter.) We gotta help them.

Arbiter: (Thinks it over.) Yes, you are right. But first... (He shoots the Gnorc in the head, killing it.) Let us be on our way. (To Yoshi.) Lead us. (Yoshi nods and runs off. Everyone else follows.)

(We cut to Gnasty Gnorc sitting on a makeshift stone throne as Gnorcs patrol the area. One Gnorc walks up to Gnasty.)

Gnorc: The creature is ready to do our bidding.

Gnasty: Excellent. (Gnasty holds up his hammer.) This was way easier than I thought it would be! (Gunshots are suddenly heard as Gnasty looks up.) What's that?! (The camera pans to see the Arbiter and the others approaching Gnasty. Any Gnorcs that approach them are shot down. Our heroes stop walking.)

Arbiter: You must be the leader here.

Gnasty: You would be correct. Impressed with my collection?

Jim: It's okay, but you're missing one. (Yoshi takes the center as he approaches Gnasty.)

Yoshi: Hrrrrrn! (Gnasty's jaw drops.)

Gnasty: Impossible! How did you get away?

Ratchet: Surrender now, you green wart! We won't hold back!

Gnasty: (Smiles.) Well then, neither will I. (Yelling.) Bring out my champion. (A loud footstep is suddenly heard.)

Ratchet: Huh?

Yoshi: Wah! (We see Dino Piranha (Super Mario) come up from behind Gnasty and screech. Spit dribbles from its mouth. We cut to Agumon and Regina walking through the forest as they too hear the screech. Regina readies her gun.)

Regina: Something's nearby.

Agumon: C'mon! Nothing we can't handle. (Agumon runs off.)

Regina: Right... (Regina follows Agumon.)

(We cut back to Dino Piranha as he slowly steps towards our heroes. Ratchet, the Arbiter, and Jim all shoot at Dino Piranha as it screeches and spins around. The tail spins towards our heroes as Yoshi and Ratchet duck. The Arbiter and Jim are hit away.)

Arbiter/Jim: Grah!/Aye!

Gnasty: Hahahaha! Try all you might, your puny weapons are no match!

Ratchet: Uh oh...

Yoshi: Owowowo! (Footsteps are suddenly heard as Regina and Agumon run in next to Ratchet and Yoshi.)

Regina: (Shooting.) Let's make this thing go extinct!

Agumon: Spitfire Blast! (Agumon spits fireballs at Dino Piranha. The fireballs seem to hurt it. Dino Piranha screams out in pain.)

Gnasty: What?! (The Arbiter and Jim rush towards Gnasty.) Fine! Have it your way! (The Arbiter gets out his Plasma Sword and swings at Gnasty. Gnasty blocks it with his hammer and knocks the Arbiter back a bit. Jim jumps onto Gnasty.)

Jim: Heeeeere's Jimmy!

Gnasty: Enough! (Gnasty grabs Jim and throws him onto the ground. He then turns and hits the Arbiter in the head with his hammer. We cut back to Dino Piranha as he rampages around, chasing our heroes. He jumps into the air and knocks everyone down as he lands.)

Ratchet: Our weapons are useless against that thing!

Regina: Weapons maybe. But not... (She turns to Agumon.) We need more fire power.

Agumon: Leave it to me! (Agumon gets up and a light envelops him. We see him digivolve into Greymon.)

Greymon: Raaaaagh! (Greymon charges at Dino Piranha and knocks it away with his horns. Dino Piranha then spins around and whips Greymon with his tail.) Urgh! (We cut back to Gnasty as the Arbiter charges towards him.)

Arbiter: Graaaaah! (Gnasty points his hammer at the Arbiter as he shoots green magic at him. The Arbiter suddenly stops and becomes crystallized.)

Gnasty: Gwahaha!

Jim: (To Gnasty.) What did you do to him, you monster?! (He aims his laser gun at Gnasty, but he's suddenly hit by magic and becomes crystallized too. We cut back to Greymon swiping at Dino Piranha with his claws. Dino Piranha then headbutts Greymon, knocking him onto the ground. Dino Piranha begins approaching the knocked-down Greymon.)

Regina: (Shooting at Gnorcs around them.) We gotta do something. Agumon isn't getting up.

Ratchet: Any bright ideas? (Yoshi suddenly gets an idea as he eats a Gnorc running at him. He turns the Gnorc into an egg and aims it at Dino Piranha.)

Yoshi: Ha! (He throws the egg as it hits Dino Piranha in the head. He stumbles back, giving Greymon time to get up.)

Greymon: Raaaah! (Greymon runs over to Dino Piranha and forces its mouth open. Greymon then spits a plume of fire into Dino Piranha's mouth as it screeches. All the petals fall off its head as it falls to the ground. Agumon then turns back to normal.)

Agumon: I did it! (Agumon is suddenly hit with magic and crystallizes. Ratchet, Yoshi, and Regina look over to Gnasty.)

Gnasty: A good effort, but not enough to stop me! (He shoots more magic and crystallizes Ratchet. He then shoots again and hits Regina. He aims for Yoshi who jumps out of the way and hides behind Ratchet, seeing that Clank is safe from crystallization.)

Clank: Hello there.

Gnasty: Hide all you want! It won't stop my reign!

Yoshi: (Whispering to Clank.) Yoshi Yoshi. Yosh.

Clank: Hmmm, that just might work. Just be gentle. (We cut to Gnasty slowly approaching Yoshi.)

Gnasty: The age of the dragon is over! (Yoshi suddenly jumps out of cover and throws an egg at Gnasty. The egg hits Gnasty's hammer, breaking it and releasing Clank from the egg.)

Clank: Oh, goodness.

Gnasty: Nooooo! (The magic leaves the hammer as all the Yoshis, as well as our heroes, break free from their crystals. All the other Yoshis gather around Yoshi, all looking angry.)

Yoshi: Yoshi! (Yoshi points at Gnasty as all the Yoshi charge. Gnasty screams as all the Yoshis trample over him.)

Gnasty: Noooooo! Draaaagooooons! (A cloud of dust comes from the Yoshis' shoes as the camera cuts. We cut to the Yoshis carrying away a now damaged Gnasty into the forest. Our Yoshi meets with the rest of the heroes as he talks to Clank.)

Yoshi: Yosh Yoshi!

Ratchet: What's he saying, Clank?

Clank: While he isn't able to fix our ship, he did say he will accompany us on our journey to find Master Mind.

Regina: And this guy is responsible for everything that's been happening?

Clank: Precisely.

Yoshi: Yoshi Yoshi!

Clank: He is eternally grateful for us saving his people. He wants to help us as much as we did for him.

Arbiter: We will accept any help offered.

Agumon: Then what are we waiting for? We have a world to save!

Ratchet: (To Yoshi.) Mind leading us outta here? (Yoshi nods.)

Yoshi: Yoshiiiiii! (Yoshi runs off and the others run after him. We hear the other Yoshis singing along to the tune of Yoshi's Story as the screen goes black.)
