"Glenn, General Parvo, and the Groomer?" Hunter asks, "Man, the Bad Guys of the month club must be having a meeting!" "You said it!" Julia says. Then, Muzzle comes bouncing up. "How's it going, fella?" Hunter asks. Muzzle then motions to the sky, and Hunter notices a recognizable plane. "Parvo, the Groomer, and Glenn! That's Parvo's plane!" Hunter exclaims, "Muzzle, you're a real pal!" Muzzle then chuckles and blushes as he, Julia, Xander, and Hunter head to the plane. "But what about us?" the human bear asks. "Hmmmmmm..." Hunter, Julia, and Xander say, rubbing their chin. We then see a sign saying "Lincoln Park Zoo," and we see the four bears caged up. "I can't believe this!" the human bear says, "Treated like a rotten animal!" The bird, cat, and Sha bears then growl at him. "Sorry, just not used to it I guess," he says. We then see the Rovers taking off in the Turbo Jet Rover. Hunter is on the microphone with Julia. "Got the coordinates on Parvo's plane ocked?" Hunter asks her. "That's a roger, Hunter," Julia replies, "Looks like they're due southeast, on course for Charlotte, North Carolina." "Well, let's see," Hunter thinks, "We just had the Chicago Bears, so why not the Carolina Panthers? Could there be Panthers roaming loose on the field?" "Better turn on the game," Julia ommens. "Gladly," Hunter replies, as he turns on the game between Buffalo and Carolina. Meanwhile, we head down to Ericsson Stadium, where the Panthers play, and we see Parvo's plane parked outside the stadium. Inside, we see three panthers roaming around the plane, searching for food. 'Don't worry my pets," Parvo says, petting them, "If ou don't fail me like those birds did, I'l give you a nice, fat pig for dinner." The panthers then lick their chops. Prvo then walks toward the Road Rovers. "Now, whch of you should I take?" he asks, trying to decid between Exile, Spirit, and Buddy. "Well, Spirit,since you already are black, why don't you go ahead in?" Parvo says, just to imtimidate her. Four cano-mutants then take her by the arm, throw her into the speciesmafier, and out comes a feroocious panther, even more angry and rough and mean thn the others. "How the sweet can change!" Exile says, as the four panthers leave the truck. Meanwhile, Hunter, Julia, Xander, and Muzzle are nearing Charlotte. "Just a few more minutes guys!" Hunter says. "Hey Hunter, what's the score?" Xander asks. "14-10 Panthers," he replies, "They are at a commecial break." Xander then comes closer to the screen, and we hear theannoncer's voices saying "And what happened earlier in Chicago has repeated here!!" "They're there!!!" the three say at once. They then see the Panthers roaming he field, chasing after the players. In fact, one of them is carrying around one of the player's boxers, wih hearts all over them. Hunter then cranks up the gas, and speeds into Charlotte. He then sees the stadium, but is going o fast to land. "Look out!!" Julia shouts, as Hunter manuevers over the stands, and down onto the field. He stops just above the field, and throws down a rope so the players can come to safety. About 10 of them do so. Thye then enter the plane, and winded they utter thanks and ask questions about what those panthers are doing on the field. "Is this some promotion or something?" a Buffalo tackle asks. "Hopefully for some restaraunt," a Panther tackle replies. Hnter then comes up to them. "Hey, it's Hunter!" Wesley Walls says. "Yes, it's me!!" Hunter says, "And you gys are in a lot of trouble right now. General Parvo is trying taking over the entire NFL in one day. That explains the incident in Chicago with the bears, the incident here with the panthers. Next it will be lions in Detroit, or rams in St. Louis, or even Broncos in Denver! Who knows? But you guys cjust can't let the entire NFL fall victim to his rule. You guys have to stand up, and drive him and his pack of panthers away! And, for your services, I will treat yall todinner at a fine steak restaraunt. Any complaints?" Drool is coming down the players' mouths. "I wouldn't think you would," Hunter says, "So, let's get out there, and stop those Panthers!" "Yeah!!!" the players say, as they jump ut of the plane, on to the field. Suddenly, the panthers rush up at thenm, but Sir Purr, the Panthers mascot, draws their attention by doing the Tootsie Roll in the endzone. Noticing the panther doing the tootsie roll, two panthers decided to join in on the fun. They then go into the endzone, and start copying their leader Sir Purr. The fans then start clapping to the music as the three break it down. Meanwhile, the other panthers are running round the side of the field, taking any person's food they can eat. Suddenly, Julia catches one eating a pretzel. "Come here, you little feline!!" she says. She then starts wrestling with it, bt the panther is winning. Then, we see, from behind, a pplayer running with a box of chicken wings he ought. The last panther is chasing hungrily. Blocking for the rnning back, since he promised to share it with him, is a huge 350-pound offensive tackle. He puts a hand out and send the panther flying, and then pushes th last panther out of the way as the two escape to a peaceful snack. The two panthers, sitting there, are an easy target. "SSorry guys, but we have to do this!" Hunter says. "Let's Muzle 'em!!!" is the cry as Muzzle is releaed and he terrorizzes the helpless cats. "He's doing it again!" Julia says, as she pulls out a bag and barfs into it. "Geez, you're acting like you just ate one of Shag's ler-and-tuna melts, Julia," Hunter says. The panthers then run away, helpless, as Muzzle has defeated them. Genreral Parvo then leaves the cats behind. "So much for pigs," Parvo says, "But now it's time to make Miami a little wetter!" Meanwhile, the fans are cheering for the Rovers good performance at getting the panthers away. We then see Hunter negotiating with Sir Purr. He then comes to Julia and Xander. "Sir Purr said he'd take care of them, until we can get that mchine and turn them back into their normal selves," Hunter says. "But what about them?" Julia asks, "Were any of them Road Rovers?" "Yes, that's Spirit over there," Hunter says, pointing to the final panther mentioned that was one of the ones that Muzzle terrorized. "I don't think she'll be too happy about being muzzled once we get back to headqurters!" Xander comments. "But where's Parvo?" Hunter asks, "Did he leave?" "Yes, I saw him," Julia replies, "He was going southeast again." "Well, we're getting nothing done standing here," Hunter comments. "Let's hit the skies!" "AAAAARRROOO!!" the Rovers say, as they follow Hunter back to the Turbo Jet Rover. But now, we interrupt this mission to head to the far north, where Jeff, Colleen, Star, Blitz, Rango, and Mars are doing just fine. This will be your final peek into their lives until the big three part end to the season. Here we go:
We then head to the far north, where we see blocks of ice covering up a secret passageway. As we whisper the secret word, the blocks move to the side and we enter to see a spiral staircase. Once we hit the bottom, we see polar bears all around on walkways on higher floors. The building is roughly 5 floors high, with a roof to the outside at the top. We then go down a winding hallway, and we see Mars moving around in his wheelchair, getting a better feel for the chair. Jeff then exits, with a somewhat concerned look on his face. "Is Colleen okay?" Mars asks. "Yes, she's doing fine," Jeff replies. "That's good," Mars says, "How do you feel?" "Ok, I guess," Jeff replies. "That's cool," Mars says.
You mean that was it William? No more? Yes, that's it!! HINT: There is a secret here. It becomes a major factor in the 3-part series. What is it? Think about it. You may need to re-read these lines before you get it. At any rate, on with the show:
We then see senior citizens, a beach, a hotel, and an umbrella protecting the people from the UV rays, yada yada yada. Anyway, this means, we're in Miami!! We then look out at the ocean, and we see three guys surfing the waves. However, they suddenly turn their heads to the left and see something strange. This causes them all to wipe out at the same time. They then see four dolphins, large and creating a large amount of splashing water, headed right towards them. "Woah dude," one says, "Last time I checked this was no aquarium." The dolphins do not stop though. The surfers then start swimming away to shore, but before they can get away, the dolphins usher a crushing blast of water from their four mouths, and the surfers freeze, not like Exile freeze, their muscles just stop moving, and they remain in the same place. The dolphins then come by and pick them up and place them on their backs. Four ropes with hooks then come down from a plane above, and pick the surfers right from the dolphins' backs. We then go up, and see that it is the Road Rover plane. The dolphins then growl, and jump for the surfers. They miss, but the clash of the four dolphins against the ocean creates a..."TIDAAAAAAALLLLL WAAAAAVVVVVVVEEE!!!!!!" Hunter screams, as Muzzle looks shocked and Julia and Xander hide under their chairs. We then see people scattering as Hunter leads the Road Rovers away from the wave, that is heading right towards the resort hotel on the beach. Flying over the hotel, Julia says, "We have to do something. We can't leave these poor people to suffer." "You're right," Hunter says, as he turns around and flies right into the tidal wave. "Hunter," Julia comments, "I said that we should do something, not kill ourselves!!" "Don't worry," Hunter replies, "I have a plan." Hunter then goes right next to the wave, with both wings going through the gigantic wave. He then sticks a big straw at the wave, and inside Muzzle starts drinking. By the time the wave has reached the shore, it is nothing more than a harmless wave. "But...how?" Julia asks. "Muzzle's thirst is as big as his hunger," Hunter asks. Muzzle then runs to the boy dog's room. "But he has trouble holding it," Hunter adds, "Now to get those dolphins!!!" We then see the dolphins scurring away, but the Rovers release a huge net from their plane and capture the four troublemakers, or so it seems. The dolphins then start jumping up and down in the net and the bottom gives way, allowing the dolphins to swim off unharmed. "Dang, they got away!!' Julia exclaims. "Guess we'll just have to wait for them to attack," Xander says, seeing the dolphins swimming off into the distance but stopping to what definetly is he discussment of a plan of attack. "I say we go get them now!" Hunter says. "But Hunter, that leaves the city exposed!!" Julia explains, "and they can swim faster than we can fly!!" "Julia, you know me," Hunter replies, "I always have a plan." "Allright..." Julia says, "But it better work." Hunter then leads the plane toward the meeting dolphins. Hunter then takes a sweep down towards the dolphins, causing them to scatter. Hunter then heads back up, turns around, and heads back down. However, on his way down, he is bombarded by pieces of ice!! Somehow, the dolphins had put water in their mouths and it had come out as ice, flying right at Hunter and the plane. "I would not have predicted this," Hunter says, as a large piece of ice shatters a wing and the plane falls into the ocean. We then go underwater to a large castle. We then see a regal family forced to swim out of the castle by the same dolphins that just sent Hunter, Julia, Muzzle, and Xander into the ocean. We then go inside the castle and see the four Road Rovers tied up to a door by seaweed. "We're in trouble," Hunter says. "So is this dolphin colony," Xander says, "Now that the leaders are gone, those guys are in charge!" he says, pointing to the dolphins, who are making a speech in dolphin to the scared dolphins of the colony. "At least it's good that we aren't stuck underwater or anything!" Julia says. As she says this, the dolphins pick up the four and carry them by their fins to the water. "I spoke too soon!" Julia moans. The dolphins then place the Rovers in a cave, and barricade the exit with stones, so the Rovers can't escape. Inside, the Rovers have their heads in their hands, thinking over what they can do. "I have an idea!" Xander says. "What?" Julia and Hunter ask. "We're hopeless!" Xander exclaims. "Think on the bright side," Hunter replies, "We still are all together." As he says this, a rumbling noise is heard outside. "What's that?" Xander asks as Muzzle growls. Then, suddenly, a large hole opens in the top of the cave, and a shark comes through. "Shark!!!!!" Hunter shouts, as the Rovers swim away from it. But then, suddenly, the ship stops, and its jaw opens, and out pops a transdogmafied labrador retriever. He is in scuba gear, with the Road Rover logo on his shoulders. "Sea Rovers!!" Hunter says. "Who?" Julia asks. "Sea Rovers, the fourth division of the Road Rover team," the lab answers, "Road Rovers, Space Rovers, Junior Rovers, and Sea Rovers!!" "Man, your ship is very realistic!!" Xander comments. "We did that for a reason," the Sea Rover replies, "To scare off the bad guys!" "But, how did you know that we were here?" Julia asks. "We followed you ever since you arrived in Miami. We're here for our winter vacation." "Sorry to ruin it, bro," Hunter says. "That's no big deal," the lab replies, "We'd rather help you then rest." "You don't have to lie," Julia replies. "Okay, we'd rather rest!!" the lab says, "But let's get this colony back in the right hands!" "Right!!" Julia, Hunter, and Xander agree, as Muzzle nods his head. The Rovers then board the shark ship, and break through the cave wall. As the citizens of the colony see the shark, they flee, scared. However, when they see that the shark is avoiding them and heading right towards the castle where the bad guys are, they head back to their homes, with no reason to be scared. Inside, various breeds of dogs like the lab are guiding the ship right to where the dolphins are. "We'll show them," the lab says. Meanwhile, inside the castle, we see the dolphins writing the terms of surrender for the colony's inhabitants. Suddenly, one sees the shark out of the corner of his eye. He then begins pointing and shouting, as the shark comes closer and closer. The other dolphins then finally look, right as the shark comes crashing through the castle. The Sea Rovers then fire a blast at the dolphins set on stun. the dolphins then stay put where they are, and the Sea Rovers release a net to capture the dolhins, and do just that. "Had to do it your way, huh?" Hunter asks them, seeing the castle with it's center with a hole in it where the Rovers went through. "We'll fix it," the lab says, "But let's get you to shore first." "But what are we going to do about them?" Julia asks, pointing to the dolphins. "We'll hang on to them for you," the lab says. "But," Julia replies, "You don't understand. They aren't real dolphins, they are other creatures that were transformed into dolphins by General Parvo. Heck, one of them could be one of us!!" "Really? Weird!" the lab says, "Well, we'll hang on to them, and you can come and get them or whatever once your mission ends. Or we could send them USPS." "Where DO you live?" Xander asks. "The lost city of Atlantis," the lab replies. "USPS," Julia, Xander, and Hunter agree. Seconds later, the Rovers are on shore. "Thanks guys!!" Xander says, as the Rovers exchange good-byes as the Sea Rovers head back to the castle to repair it. They then see that plane again: yep, you guessed it, Parvo's plane. "There he goes again!!!" Hunter says, as Muzzle growls. "Easy bud," Hunter replies, "We'll get 'em." "But through what method of transport?" Julia asks, "We won't be flying that plane anytime soon." "Wait a second," Hunter says, "Where are we again?" "Miami," Xander replies. "SPORT!!" Hunter exclaims. "Who?" Xander and Julia ask. "We helped Sport out one time," Hunter explains, "He was a Road Rover for one mission. I'm sure his Master wouldn't mind giving us a lift." We then do that
R O A D R O V E R S
thing and we then see Hunter ringing a doorbell. Suddenly, we see Olivia Peru (Sport's owner), answer the door, and seeing Hunter, she says, "Hunter!! Come in, come in!!" "Actually, Ms. Peru, we came to ask a favor," Hunter replies. "Anything for you Road Rovers," Olivia replies, "You saved my life, and Sport's!" Sport then walks up to the door, sees Hunter, and begins wagging his tail and yipping happily. "How you doing, pal?" Hunter asks. Sport then replies in a series of barks. "Oh, that's cool," Hunter replies. "What did he say?" Xander asks. "That he's been having great fun," Hunter replies. "Cool," Xander replies. "So what do you 4 need?" Olivia asks. "Well, we're trying to catch up to Parvo," Hunter explains, "But we have no way of catching up to them, because our plane is dead. So, do you have any links to possibly a pilot or something?" "Actually, I work at the Miami Airport!" Olivia replies, "I'm headed there in 15 minutes. I'm sure you can get some tickets to head wherever Parvo is." "Boy are we lucky!" Xander says. "Hey, luck is my best power," Hunter replies. We then jump to the airport, where we see the Rovers tracking Parvo through the Rovers locators. The only Rover left on the locator board is Exile, meaning that Buddy was one of the dolphins. We then see that the plane is hovering over the city over Denver, and is about to land. "Denver," Julia, Xander, and Hunter say, as Muzzle nods his head. "So, Denver Broncos?" Xander asks. "Wild horses, cool!" Hunter says. We then jump ahead 1 hour, and we see the Rovers boarding the plane. As they go through the walkway from the concourse to the plane, they wave good-byes to Olivia Peru for her help. We then jump to right before the plane is about to start up, and we see the Rovers in coach. "Who didn't bring the money for first class?" Hunter asks. Julia then stares at Xander. "Why is everything my fault?" Xander asks. "Maybe because Hunter and I payed $400 each and you only payed $100!!" Julia exclaims. Xander then sticks his tounge out at her, as Julia begins to watch the in-flight movie. Meanwhile, a kid behind Xander begins kicking his seat. Once it is unbearable, Xander turns around and says, "Kid, could you please stop! I'm not in a good mood today." The kid then hits him with one of those airplane magazines. "Kid, stop!!" Xander says. The kid then takes Xander's hat off his head and runs with it to a seat far away. Just as Xander is about to chase after him, a stewardess tells him, "Sir, you need to put on your seat belt. We're lifting off in just a few seconds." Dejectedly, Xander sits down and buckles his seat belt, waiting to get back at that kid. The fasten seat belts sign then goes off, and the captain says, "It is now safe to unfasten your seat belts. You may run electronical devices and move around the cabin now." Xander then hastily removes his seat belt, and remembers were he heard the kid scream.
