"You
think your troops are ready to fight?" Squidward asked the Latino teenage
girl. "They wouldn't last a minute against the Coons!"
"They
completed their training." Said Ronnie Anne.
"Those
boys aren't fit to be soldiers than you are to be captain." Said
Squidward. "Once Von Strangle reads my report, your troops will never see
battle."
"We're
not finished!" Demanded Ronnie Anne.
"Be
careful, captain." Warned Squidward. "You may be the general's
sister, but I am Big Man's counsel. And by the way, I got that job by myself.
You're dismissed." Ronnie Anne walked out of Squidward's dorm, and Lincoln
tried to make small talk with her.
"Hey,
I'll hold him, and you punch!" Suggested Lincoln. Ronnie Anne just ignored
him. "For what it's worth, I think you're a great captain." Ronnie
Anne smiled slightly, and continued back to her tent. Craig noticed this and
popped out of the grass.
"I
saw that." He said.
"What?"
Asked Lincoln.
"You
like her, don't you?" Asked Craig.
"No!"
Protested Lincoln. "I..."
"Yeah,
right, sure." Said Craig. "Go back to your tent!" Once Lincoln left,
Craig and Flecko were now alone.
"I
think it's time we took this war into our own hands." Said Craig. He
slithered to Squidward's dorm, and the middle-aged man walked out, ready to
bathe in the lake. Once the coast was clear, Craig and Flecko entered the dorm.
Flecko started typing on Squidward's laptop.
"Let
me see what you got." Said Craig, reading the computer screen. "'Dear
Ms. Santiago, We're waiting for the Coons at the Water Tribe. It would mean a
lot if you were to help us out.' And you forgot to say 'And since we're out of
sauerkraut, perhaps you wouldn't mind bringing us some.' HELLO! This is the
army! Make it sound more urgent, please! Know what I'm talking about?"
Flecko nodded his head in agreement and typed a new letter.
"That's
better." Said Craig. "Much better. Now let's print it and go!"
Now that
they had the letter, Craig and Flecko needed a mode of transportation, so they
went to see Lynn.
"Lynnda,
baby." Said Craig." We need a ride." Upon hearing that, Lynn
spat at Craig. She was about to spit at Flecko, but then the fly flew off.

Meanwhile,
at the lake, Squidward just finished taking his bath. He dried his body and
bald head with two separate towels, while also holding his soaked slippers.
"Insubordinate
ruffians." Said Squidward. "You men owe me a new pair of slippers!
And I do not scream like a girl." Suddenly, a dog with a cat's face on its
butt took a bite out of Squidward's slipper, causing Squidward to scream. On
the creature’s back was a dummy of a tall tan general with large muscles, a
green shirt, and camouflage-patterned pants. Craig controlled the arms while
Flecko controlled the facial features.
"Urgent
news for the general." Said Craig, using an Arnold Schwartzanigger-like
voice. Squidward couldn't help but stare at the creature the dummy was riding
on. "What? Never seen a cross-breed before?" Squidward started
directly at where Flecko was, who was cleverly hidden.
"Who
are you?" He asked.
"Excuse
me?" Responded Craig. "I think the question is, who are you? We're in
a war, man! There's no time for stupid questions! I should have your nose for
that, rip it right off your face. But I'm feeling gracious today, so carry
on before I report you." The cat side of the creature climbed up a nearby
tree and broke the dummy, but thankfully, Squidward didn't notice it. When
Squidward finished reading the letter the dummy gave him, he burst into Ronnie
Anne's tent.
"Captain!"
Shouted Squidward. "Urgent news from the general! We're needed at the
front!"
"Pack
your bags, Flecko." Said Craig, who was watching Squidward from a tree
along with Flecko. "We're moving out."
Author's Notes: Flecko typing on the laptop in this chapter is loosely based on a deleted scene in Zootopia, in which Judy Hopps hopped on the keyboards of an elephant's computer to do research on Emmet Otterton, the missing otter.
The idea for sauerkraut came from the Loud House episode 'Changing the Baby'.

The creature the dummy rides on in this chapter is CatDog, from the rather unusual 90s Nicktoon CatDog.
The dummy in this chapter is a nod to Jorgen Von Strangle from The Fairly OddParents.
