The Great Toon War: Remastered Chapter 10

“Next up,” Said Madame Foster through a megaphone. “Juniper Lee vs KO! KO? What kind of a name is that?” June and KO soon walked towards each other.

“Before we start the battle,” KO began. “Can I take my medicine? Princess Bubblegum made me a pill that will turn me into TKO for an hour." KO took the candy grass out of his pockets and held it up high. "Alan Dracula! Here's some grass!" Alan Dracula, taking the form of a Pteranodon, flew by, changed into his base form, and turned his chest into a drawer. KO opened it and took the pill box out of the drawer.

"Good boy." Said KO as he handed Alan Dracula the candy grass. The 6-to-11-year-old boy then took the pill, and he turned into Turbo KO.

“Aw.” Said June. “You look so cute after you transform.”

“I’M NOT CUTE!” Said TKO, delivering a punch so powerful that it reduced a palm tree to ash. Luckily, Juniper jumped out of the way just in time and started running until she hid behind a rock wall. Alan Dracula simply sprinted away to avoid the fight that would ensue.

“Good thing I brought my armor and staff.” She said to herself, quickly taking out her battle armor and Wushu Staff. Pretty soon, TKO shattered the wall with a single punch.

"开始战斗吧! (Let the battle begin!)" Said Juniper.

"I don't know what you said," Said TKO. "But less chatter and more fighting!" TKO delivered another punch, but June was too quick and dodged the attack.

“Now it’s my turn!” Said Juniper, running towards TKO and smacked the boy with him.

“Yowch!” Said TKO. “How can something so fragile hurt so much?”

“It’s a magic staff.” Replied Juniper. “Besides, I come from a long line of Chinese power guardians.”

“Whatever you are,” Said TKO. “You’re about to get wrecked!” He grabbed Juniper by the left foot and punched her, sending her flying into the air. Luckily, June had her Flight Gems with her. She took them out of her backpack, held a gem in each hand, and started flying. Unbeknownst to her, TKO could fly as well, and he was chasing her!

“THIS IS BORING AND UNFAIR!” Shouted TKO, who managed to send a rocket punch to June and send her crashing to the ground. Unfortunately to the Chinese girl, June went unconscious upon hitting the ground.

“And now to make sure she doesn’t wake up!”

——————————————

Inside KO’s mind, KO was locked in TKO’s house.

“You can’t do that!” Said KO. “That girl is a hero. She doesn’t deserve to Paris.”

“It’s perish, you wimp!” Said TKO. “And besides, you’re the hero. For the next 50 minutes, we’re the villain!”

“Not on my watch!” Said KO, who rummaged through TKO’s cupboards to get a candy bar. He then broke through the window glass and held the bar for TKO to see. "Hey, TKO! I got a candy bar!"

"What flavor?" Asked TKO.

"Uh, moose tracks!" Said KO.

"Moose tracks?!" Shouted TKO. "I LOVE MOOSE TRACKS!" TKO ran towards his good counterpart and swallowed the candy bar whole, but shrank to the size of a mouse.

"Now to put you in something safe!" Said KO. He grabbed TKO, ran over to a copy of Gar's Bodega, bought a dark-proof chest, and locked TKO inside.

--------------------------------------

Back on Nameless Island, Juniper Lee woke up from consciousness. She saw the boy from earlier and was surprised to see him with a different outfit.

"TKO?" She asked.

"It's just KO, now." Said the 6-to-11-year-old boy. "And can we call it a truce? Mommy says I can't hit girls. Unless they're robots."

"Deal." Said Juniper Lee. "As long as we say that I won. Besides, I can't hurt anyone unless they're monsters." The two then shook hands.

------------------------------------

"Next up," Said Madame Foster once again through a megaphone. "Dee Dee vs. Jake the Dog!" The girl and the magic dog started walking towards each other.

"How did the Scottish terrier feel when he saw a monster?" Asked Dee Dee.

"Oh no." Said Jake. "Not another lame dog joke." Dee-Dee then drank a monster serum and turned into a massive 400-foot-tall spider/hominid monster with gray fur, eight long spider-like legs with pink nails on the tips, yellow eyes, and a lizard-like tongue.

"TERRIER-FIED!" She shouted.

"Well, I have something to tell you, Spider Legs!" Said Jake. "I am a magic dog!" He then stretched around Dee Dee's legs and wrapped around them like a snake.

"I have another riddle for you, doggie." Said Dee Dee. "What do you call a dachshund on fire?"

"I don't know." Said Jake. Suddenly, Dee Dee's fist was starting to ignite.

"A hot dog!" Before she could punch Jake's face, Connie ran towards the monster and stabbed Dee Dee's hand with her sword. Dee Dee howled in pain, clutching onto her injured hand. Jake then unraveled himself, and Dee Dee fell to the ground.

"Thank you." Said Jake.

"You're welcome." Said Connie. "But Marceline will take care of this beast." Dee Dee felt insulted by Connie's words.

"Who are you calling a beast?!" She shouted. Then, a large bat flew by and pulled on Dee Dee's fur.

"Ack!" Shouted Dee Dee. "You were pulling on my unicorn fur!" The bat flew to Jake and Connie and turned back into her normal form. It was Marceline.

"Girls hate it when you mess with their hair." She said. "I did that to Bonnibel once and she was mad at me for a week." Jake and Connie were stunned at what Marceline just said. "Don't worry so much, guys. Like Connie said, I can take care of this monster." Connie then rode on Jake, and the two of them headed back to the MCN home base.

"What kind of dog would Dracula have?" Asked Dee Dee. "A bloodhound! Ha ha ha ha!" Marceline turned into a bat again and flew towards the back of Dee Dee's head.

"I'm not going to fall for that, again!" Said Dee Dee, and she grabbed Marceline. She then turned into a tentacle monster and started strangling Dee Dee. Jake came back and once again wrapped himself around Dee Dee's legs. Marceline then turned into a 40-foot-tall bat and pinned Dee Dee to the ground. Marceline then stuck her fangs into Dee Dee's shoulder and sucked out some of Dee Dee's blood. Both of them then reverted to their normal forms. Cow and Chicken then appeared, put Dee Dee on a cot, and headed back to the MCN home base.

—-----------------------------------------

Meanwhile, in the real world, Jim and his friend Bill finished watching the latest episode, and they exchanged thoughts again.

"Some diehard OK KO fans are probably gonna complain about the continuity errors tomorrow." Said Jim. "But who cares?"

"I'm not." Said Bill. "I have to get going now. My parents are probably worried sick.”

Author's Notes: In case you want to know what Kaiju name I gave Dee Dee's monster form, I went with DeeDeestroyah. The name is a riff on Destroyah from 1995's Godzilla vs Destroyah, which had the reptilian monster fight a mutated trilobite. I honestly couldn't care less, but I have friend who loves this movie.
Looks more like a dragon than a lobster, to me.

While Marceline (from Adventure Time) is a vampire, she has many supernatural powers and traits you wouldn't find in your average vampire. She is able to transform into numerous monsters, including one with tentacles!

On OK KO: Let's Be Heroes, if KO let his negative emotions get the better of him, he'll turn into Turbo KO, or TKO for short. He's still small, but TKO's strength is rivaled to that of Steven Universe's Sugilite.
Luckily, KO was able to lock up TKO deep in the recess of his mind, though TKO sometimes gets control.
Similar to the Mushrooms in the Mario video games, candy bars in the world of OK KO will make one either shrink or grow when consumed. In the episode 'Just Be a Pebble', Ko ate so many that he grew to the size of King Kong!
