After twenty minutes parading in that mess, they finally reach a spooky and suspicious tree, Shantae points at it. "Perhaps this is where the next labyrinth is located. By the way, how do you feel, Rayman?"

Rayman looks to the side of Shantae and sees some zombies walking off with something in their hands. "Zombies! And they got something! Maybe it's my feet!"

Shantae looks at the direction of Rayman, "Hey... I know these guys! Hold up!" The two zombies heard Shantae's call and turned around. "Hey... It's genie girl! How's it going?" Shantae points to Rayman's feet they got in their hands. "Those! Hand them over! They belong to my friend here."

Rayman just nods. The zombies seems upset to part with them. "But they are funny! They can dance on their own, watch!" They placed them on the ground and the feet started moonwalking. Shantae just stares and soaks in all the weirdness of them moving on their own. "Okay..."

A zombie girl walks in between the two zombie guys and she seems really happy to see Shantae. "Hey there, genie gal! Whatcha got there, lunch?" Rayman sweatdrops as she might refer to him. Shantae just replies casually. "No... This is my friend, Rayman. We've come to find our next destination and his feet. Now we kindly ask for them back."

The zombie girl smiles and says. "Sure! For a bite of your delicious genie brain!" Shantae's expression turns into annoyance. "Not gonna happen, Rottytops." Rayman tilts his head. "Rottytops?" Rotty nods. "That's my name, all right! These are my brothers, Poe and Abner." Abner crosses his arms. "You got that right, pally!"

Poe then suggested. "Why not we trade? Your feet for your brains?" Rayman's eyes widens. "My brain?! I use that!" Rotty just giggles. "Well... Any friend of Shantae's is a friend of mine! But don't you think you'll get off so easily. I might want something that you could give us in exchange for your feet."

Rayman gives her a look and says. "Does it involves brains?" Rotty just laughs. "I know that we're zombies but we do like other things other than brains... Even though we really really like brains. Okay! There's this really scary thing In this tree that you can see here and he's gaurding something we really want. If you can get that then we'll give you your feet and you can keep your brains... For now."

Rayman frowns. "You got it but... I sorta need my feet to properly explore in there." The brothers nods and hand him his feet. The feet walks towards Rayman and jumps back where they once belonged. Shantae puts Rayman down and he clicks his heels happily. "Yahoo! Back in one piece once again!"

Rottytops breaks the reuniting. "Don't you forget our deal now! If you don't follow through then we'll take more than your feet!" Rayman gets a bit nervous. "R-right." Shantae tries to comfort Rayman. "Don't worry. She kids a lot. Even though it sometimes sounds like she means it."
