Once more the team are watching TV in their HQ- A fitting way to begin our tale...
Star: C'mon
Scooby! Heh-heh...
Charge: Watch out, Daphne! There's
a ghost behind you!
Gyro: That's not a ghost, it's an
old man trying to scare them off. Happens every episode.
Crystal: ...And I
feel as if we've just watched every episode- C'mon let's go and
do something!
Star: Like what?
Crystal: Let's go
to the bank!
Gyro: ???
Star: Why?
Crystal: Hey, I
dunno! I'm not writing this episode!
Gyro: Well neither am I... And it's
not Star, 'cause we always have better graphics when he writes
them... Gravity, Are you writing this?
Gravity: Nope. And
it's not Napalm Man, or else I'm sure we'd spend the whole
episode watching TV.
Charge: Er... I don't think it's
me, but I'm not really sure...
Crystal: Good
grief! You don't suppose it's...
Gyro: ...But he's asleep on the
couch!
Everyone: AAAAHHH!!!!
A logical silence follows...
Gravity: Wake up,
Stone Man! We're going to the bank!
Stone: Eh?
Gyro: Crystal Man wants to go to
the bank, so we're having a break from TV.
Stone: Fair enough. (Yawn!)
Star: Alright
everyone! Let's go- the van is parked in the garage.
Napalm: I didn't know we had a
van.
Crystal: I didn't
know we had a garage...
The team all head downstairs to the garage, and pile into the van
Gyro: Get off my hand, you clumsy
oaf!
Napalm: Oh, Sorry.
Charge: Gyro! Your propellors
keep poking me in the face!
Gyro: My God! That's your face?
What was Wily thinking?!?
Star: Stop
fighting, somebody help me find the keys!
Gravity: They're
in the ignition, Star.
Star: Oh, thanks.
The team pull out of the drive, and are soon cruising the streets
Gyro: Geez, this van is dirty!
When was the last time we used it?
Crystal: I don't
think we've ever used it.
Gyro: Wow! How'd it get so messy
then? There must be a million chocolate wrappers in here!
Napalm (sadly): And not one
chocolate...
Stone: We should get an open-top bus, I keep bumping my head!
Gyro: Hey, yeah! That would be
cool, then we could chuck stuff at people!
Gravity: Surely
you could do that anyway?
Gyro: Um.. yeah.
Star: Okay guys!
We're almost there.
Napalm: Do we actually have any
money in the bank?
Crystal: Um, I
dunno. But I guess we can find out.
After three minutes of looking for a parking spot, They finally park the van and get out
Crystal: Er, no.
Actually mate, Gravity Man just used a gravity ray to park us on
top of a nearby K-Mart.
Oh, Sorry.
Charge: So... What are we going
to do once we've got some cash from the bank?
Gyro: I know! Let's buy a Coke
machine for our HQ!
Star: Hey, great
idea!
Napalm: Coca-Cola, the one
beverage that both robots and humans enjoy!
Crystal: Well,
except for water, in the case of Mr Steam-Engine over here...
Charge: I resent that!
Stone: Shut up. Here, Gravity, have a look for drinks dispensers, in
this phone directory.
Gravity: Phone
directory? Where'd you get that?
Stone: Uh, I brought it with us.
Crystal: How
convenient... No, you look for it, Stone Man. You won't fit in
the bank anyway.
Stone: (Grumble Grumble)
The others enter the bank:
Cashier: Hello, how may I help you?
Napalm: We'd like to withdraw
some money, please.
Cashier: Certainly, and what is your account number?
Napalm: Er...774
Crystal:...uh..632...
Charge: ...47912?
Cashier: 774-632-47912? And could I see your bank-card please?
Crystal: Er, Well...you
see...
Gyro: Here it is! (Hands
over bank-card)
Crystal: ?
Gyro: (shrugs) I
found it in the van.
Cashier (Typing in computer): And who is the account in the name of?
Crystal: Well,
that would be 'Darkman's Warriors!'
All the team pose
Cashier: Very nice...Ahem. Well, all the rest is correct, except this account is in the name of 'Star Man's Wonder Galaxy Guardians'...
Star Man poses
There is a simultaneous groan from rest of team
Gravity: Just give
us our money please.
Cashier: How much would you like, sir?
Napalm: Give us all of it- I'm
not wasting another episode coming back here again!
Meanwhile, outside the bank...
Stone: Drinks, Operating systems- Page 234...nope... Page 415...Drinks
Cabinets Anonymous?..Nope...
Mega Man: Stone Man! I thought I had defeated you- Now you will surely
perish!
Stone: Er... Are you talking to me?
Mega Man: Don't play games with me, Stone Man! What is Dr Wily planning now?
Stone: I've got no idea! I don't work for Dr Wily anymore- I'm a
reformed robot!
Mega Man: I wish I could believe you, but I don't trust you- get ready to
fight!
Stone: WAIT!! You can't fight me!
Mega Man: Wha-Why?
Stone: Uh... because...er...Because I'm your brother!
Mega Man: (laughs) Ha! You're not Proto Man! I'm not that stupid! Ha-ha!
Stone: No- I mean... er... well, your real name is 'Rock', right? Well,
I am 'Stone' Man- Rock, Stone... We're brothers!!
Mega Man: Wow! You've got a point! Well, I could never destroy my brother.
Okay then, see ya later!
Mega Man leaves
Stone: Phew!
The others return from inside the bank
Gyro: Why didn't you ask for a
bag to carry it in!!!
Napalm: I...I'm too shy...
Gyro: Grrr!!!
Star: Hey, Stone!
Did you find a Coke distributor?
Stone: Erm, No.
Voice: You...You are looking for a Coke Machine?
Crystal: What was
that?
Voice: I can get you a Coke machine... Walk into this small dimly lit alley so I can see you...
Gyro: Well, if there's a chance
of getting a Coke Machine, then I'm all for it.
Star: Okay then,
Gyro, you go ahead.
Crystal: No- I say
we all go together, It's safer, and that way Gyro doesn't get all
the credit if we do find one...
Gyro: Shut up!
Stone: I'll go first- I'm the biggest, No-one would dare to try and mug
me!
Star: That seems
to make sense.
Stone Man strides into the alley-way
Stone Man's Voice: What the f- Who the hell are you?
Charge: Perhaps he's in trouble!?
Stone Man's Voice: It's...okay...guys. Nothing...dangerous, anyway...
The others quickly follow into the alley-way
Stranger: Yes! All of you! Come in here, I have a surprise for you! (Hehe...)
Crystal: Good
grief! Is he serious? He must think we're complete idiots to fall
for that!
Stranger: I won't hurt you...Come and see my pretty Coke machine...
Gyro: That disguise is terrible!
Crystal: He must
have borrowed it from Dr Wily...
Stranger: I'm just a harmless old man... giving away free Coke machines...
Stone: Who is this guy? Do you guys know him?
Star: This, I
believe, hehe, is our...ahem, Arch Nemesis... It seems he has
prepared a trap for us...
Crystal: Best to
play along with it I 'spose. (Addresses stranger) Ho there, old man! Whither art these yonder Coke machines?
Charge: Why's he talking
gibberish?
Star: I think it's
just the accepted way to address strange old men...
Arch: HAHA! Yes I can now reveal that it is I- your ARCH NEMESIS!
MWAHAHAHAHAHA!!!!
All: GASP!!
Crystal: Oh no! It
is our Arch Nemesis! Whatever shall we do? (hehe)
Napalm: We are surely doomed! (snicker)
Star: Alright,
Arch, you've caught us. Now what are you going to do?
Arch: I have?...Yes, I have caught you! Haha! (Wow- I didn't think it
would be this easy!) Now you shall feel my power!!
Crystal: No! Not
your power! Anything but that!!!
Stone: Somebody help us!
Gravity: Look Arch!
Somebody's coming to rescue us- over there, behind you!
Arch (looks
around): What! No- I have caught you fair and sq- Hey,
where have they all gone?
Later on as they arrive back at HQ
TV: "...and that concludes our 47 hour Scooby Doo special. Next up- Gardener's World!
Napalm: Oh no!!!
Star (on the phone): Uh-huh... you do vans?...Okay then, thankyou very much...yes...goodbye.
Gravity: Who was
that?
Star: Roll
Cleaning Services, they're coming to clean the van.
Stone: Groovy. But where's Wet Guy?
Star: Wave Man?
Stone: Uh Yeah, him.
Star: I dunno,
but he's missed this whole episode...
Napalm: And we didn't even get a
Coke machine...(sob)
Arch: Hello? Hello? Where'd you all go? GUYS!!!!
