Wolf and his crew kept fighting crime and got praise for the rest of the night. So, since they stayed up so late, they slept in. Alarm clocks all over the house were beeping. "Ugh, him again?" Wolf asked to himself, referring to Legs. "OH SHOOT! I slept in! I have to go on that date with Diane!" Wolf remembered. He quickly got dressed and ran down the stairs. He got his shoes on. Knock knock. "Oh no, it's probably Diane!!" Wolf said, he was scared. The other Bad Guys were sleeping. Wolf quickly straightened his fur and put on a smile. He opened the door. "Hey Di-"

It's Marmalade!?

"Hello, Wolf!" Marmalade said sweetly."Oh, uh, hey Marmalade." Wolf replied. "May I come in?"
"Not now."
"It's fairly urgent."
Wolf sighed. "Ok."
"Wolf, I saw on TV, you and your friends were fighting crime, and I'm insanely proud of you!" Marmalade said, happily, his eye unnoticeably twitched. "So, I was wondering if you could be my hero!" He said. "What?" Wolf asked.
"You see, my fundraiser isn't going so well." Marmalade sighed. C.U.T.E Zilla? That sounds cool? Why would nobody donate to that? Wolf thought. "...and I was wondering if you and your friends could perform this Wednesday, like last time." Marmalade said. "Ummm..." Wolf grimaced. The other Bad Guys were all talking to each other. They paused and saw Marmalade. "Wolf? What is he doing here?" Snake asked. "Marmalade came over and asked if we would perform for his fundraiser." Wolf answered. "So he can STEAL the money again!" Snake said. "Oh, believe me Snake, I have no intention of taking the money. In fact, I now have little regards except for the fundraiser. Prison changed me." Marmalade explained. Snake, was still not convinced.

"Maybe we should give this guy another chance." Shark said. "What!? What about what Wolf said afte-" Snake got cut off again. "Ever since he got out of prison he showed no sign of aggression." Webs said. "That's what he wants you to thi-" Snake was struggling to convince everyone to stay on guard and to not trust him. He was currently failing. "Do I get to sing again?" Piranha asked. "Oh c'mon!" Snake commented. "Yes, yes you do." Marmalade answered. "Then I'm in." Piranha said. "Snake?" Marmalade asked. "FINE. I'm doing it for the people though, not for you, pig." Snake said. "That is fine by me." Marmalade said. "So, what is the fundraiser for?" Snake asked. "It's a rocket that will launch into space, and attach itself to the moon. It will then, unleash a BIG surprise." The guinea pig explained. "Oh heck no!" Snake said. "Snake." Wolf replied. "Okay, fine. What's the surprise?" Snake asked. "If I told you, it wouldn't be a surprise, silly." Marmalade answered. Knock-knock-knock

"I'll get it." Wolf said. He looked back at Marmalade and remembered she still hated him. He stood in a weird way so if it's Diane, she couldn't tell. "Hey Wolf, you ready?" Diane asked. "Umm, Diane! What a surprise!" Wolf said. "Who's at the door!" Marmalade said, his voice being VERY recognizable. "Thats-" Wolf said. Diane pushed Wolf out of the way and saw Marmalade. "Marmalade!?!" Diane said. "Oh hello Diane! You're looking great!" Marmalade said. She looked at Wolf angrily. "What?" Wolf asked. Diane leaves the house and goes to her car. She was about to drive away, furious. Marmalade walked through the front door. "Remember the gala's on Wednesday!" Marmalade said with a cheerful smile. As Diane drove away, Marmalade's once-cheerful smile became sinister. "Idiots." He muttered under his breath. Little did he know, Diane saw it happen too, and just like Snake, she was still suspicious. She went back home.

Diane got her stuff ready. She was planning to go to Marmalade's mansion, but not as Diane. As the Crimson Paw. She was geared up and ready to go.

Later that night...

The Crimson Paw arrived. She sneaked around the mansion and noticed a small little statue of marmalade, like the last one. She knew what to do, because she's seen a statue like that one before. She flipped the statue's head and pressed the button, somehow, it worked. The bookshelf slid open and she went down the staircase. Diane entered the lab. "What are you doing, pig," She whispered to herself, as she sees the huge machines Marmalade made build the rocket. But before she could explore any more, she heard Marmalade's laugh upstairs. She went up to see him having Cuddles style him. "Ohh, I can't wait to see the look on their faces." Marmalade said. "Wolf's, Snake's, Shark's, Piranha's-" He was daydreaming at this point, until he saw Diane behind him in the mirror. "And.. YOUU!!!" Marmalade yelled. He quickly turned around and pressed a button on his watch. Sliding doors opened with two mechanical arms. He put them on quickly and grabbed Diane by the hands and legs. He slowly clapped as his mechanical arms pinned her. "The mighty paw has slipped." Marmalade said. "I saw your little science experiments." Diane replied.

"Oh, then that's unfortunate. That means I'm going to have to dispose of you." Marmalade said. He reaches for another button on his watch. Diane flinched a little. "But, then again, where's the fun in that?"

"How about.. I give you front row seats to the END OF THE WORLD!"

"WHAT!?" Diane reacted. "And soon, I'll owe it all to them. Cuddles! Make sure she doesn't leave!" Marmalade said.

"Diane, keep your eyes glued to that screen. The gala is in 2 days, and you'll get to see my rocket launch in person." Marmalade said.

Back at home, Wolf was trying to call Diane. "C'mon, pick up." Wolf said to himself as he tried calling Diane. "Diane Foxington is currently unavailable right now. At the tone, please record your message." The voice mail said. Wolf hung up again. "Ugh! Did you think I made her that mad? She won't even talk to me." Wolf said. "I mean if I were her, I would be. I'm a bit mad right now." Snake said. Wolf sighed. "Alert! Alert! Alert Dudes! Crime being committed!" Legs alerted. "Ah!" It startled both Wolf and Snake. "Webs, can you make Legs less alarming for once?" Snake asked. "Nope." Webs answered. "Where is it being committed?" Wolf asked. "At a hay shop, a stick shop, and a brick shop." Legs answered. "Oh no. Guys we gotta go now!" Wolf said. Everyone hopped in the car again and drove out fast. They almost hit some trees along the way. The crew arrived at the brick store. (Why is there a store for just bricks you ask? Well, don't ask me, I don't know either.) Wolf quickly got out. He was terrified. It was the three little pigs.

"Oh if it isn't the big bad wolf gone soft." The first pig said. "Oh no! We're shaking in our hooves!" The second one tried to intimidate Wolf. The third pig seemed like the leader. "If you want to stop us," The third one said. "You're gonna have to huff, puff, and catch us!" The three pigs said all together. "We gotta go and catch them! C'mon!" Wolf said. The good guys hopped in the car, and started pursuing the bad piggies. "Uh oh! They're on our curly tails!" The first pig said. "Then get 'em off!" The leader replied. The second started lighting TNT. They then threw it at the Bad Guys, with Wolf barely dodging it. "Who are these pigs!?" Snake asked. "Wait a second. I remember these three. They're pigs I knew when I was younger!" Wolf answered. "Tell us!" Webs said. "Back in my past, before I was a bad guy, I ran into some pigs."

"They were scared, and they tried to hide from me. They couldn't go far though. I was determined to prove to everyone I was something more. I caught a cold chasing them, and I blew down their houses on accident. They kinda hate me for it." Wolf explained. "How about they learn to let things go? Like us?" Shark asked. "Uhh guys?" Piranha said. "Like Marmalade." Webs said. "Debatable." Snake said. "GUYS!!" Piranha yelled. "What!?" The rest of the guys asked. "BOOM BOOM!" Piranha replied. The TNT flew in the air. Wolf tried to dodge it, but it ended up under his tire. "AHH!" Everyone screamed except the pigs. "Uhh, boss?" The second pig asked. "What?" The third pig replied. "CAR!" The first one pointed towards the Bad Guys' car almost flying on top of them. It fell on the pigs' car. Everyone jumped off and abandoned their car. A huge explosion could be heard from the brick shop. "...ughh.." Wolf felt weak. After all, he didn't have a lot of time to run. Luckily he was unharmed. "My- My car!" Wolf said. "Where's the pigs?" Shark asked. Brup! "Hehehe." Snake laughed. Snake coughed up all 3 of the pigs. "Snake!" Wolf said. They turned in the trio and started getting ready for the next day.
