Wolf woke up, and walked into the room in the jet where his friends usually hung out. "Good dreams?" Snake asked. "I guess you could say that." Wolf answered. "Gentlemen, we're here." Diane announced. They looked down at the island from their window. "Looks like the type of place people die at." Snake said. "At least if we die, we're saving the world doing so. Someone would find out about the antidote here eventually." Wolf replied. The jet landed. "Webs, stay in the air and watch things." Diane said. "Okay! If something happens while you guys are gone I'll see it." Webs replied. "Alright, c'mon."

The heroes followed Diane through a series of pathways in the forest, until they finally arrived at their destination. "We're here." She said. The place they arrived to looked kind of creepy in a way, with skulls on the outside. "Umm, nice place. You sure this guy could help us?" Wolf asked. "It's not a guy." Diane answered. She opened the door. It seemed old, it made a creaking sound.

"Now everyone, be careful." Diane commanded. Inside, everything looked antique. "Hey old guy, wheres the milk and coo-" Snake joked. He suddenly got taken by a strange figure. It looked large. "Not again." He said. He got karate chopped! The rest of the group followed Diane, she seemed to know where she was going, and they found the thing AND Snake. "Well well WELL. Look at this! Some grub walked through my door- ah- ah- ACHOO!" The old figure said. They sneezed their dentures out, directly hitting Wolf on the head. "Bless you Granny." Diane said. It seemed like she knew them. It looked like a reptile. Diane passed Granny's dentures to her and she put them on. "Fox? Is that you?" She asked. "Hi Granny." Diane said. "Fox!" The old reptile ran toward the fox and gave her a monstrous hug. "How's my little poison apple doing?" Granny asked. "Just fine. Can you let my friend out of below your foot?" Diane said. "Oh, sorry honey. I didn't know."

Snake was under her foot, it seemed Granny didn't want him to escape.

"Who's this?" Snake asked. "Guys, meet Granny Gumbo."

"She was the one who taught me those karate moves, raised me when I was young, and she's the TOP ALCHEMIST!" Diane announced

"She was the one who taught me those karate moves, raised me when I was young, and she's the TOP ALCHEMIST!" Diane announced. "Cool." Wolf commented. "So why do we need her?" Snake asked.

"Oh yeah? Why did you call me up on the telephone then, hm?" Granny replied. Ooh. Burn. "For the antidote." Diane answered. "Antidote? What antidote?" Granny Gumbo looked at the zitten Wolf was trying to keep away from. "OH! For that thing. As a matter of fact, I have my special pot cooking right now!" She said. "Marvelous, Granny!" Diane exclaimed. "Just need a pinch of the fur... Hold this, mutt." Granny passed an ingredient to Wolf. "Okay then." Wolf replied. Then the reptile continued looking for the rest of the stuff. "Just need this, and that, and some milk..." She said to herself. "But to answer your question, Snake, Granny is an ALCHEMIST, meaning she's so good with chemicals, it's almost like magic." Diane said. "Who saying it ain't?" Granny joked.

"BLAST!" She exclaimed. "What's the matter Granny?"
"I'm all outta snake bite venom!"
"What do you need it for?"
"I need a single dose to complete the formula. But how in the world am I supposed to get snake bite venom in this hour!" Granny Gumbo said. "Snaakee.." Wolf teased Snake in a singsongy tone. "Oh no. I am NOT going to do that." Snake replied. "Please Snake?" Diane begged. "I am NOT going to give up some venom so you to have a planet to DATE on." Snake explained. Wolf and Diane looked kind of mad, kind of serious. They then stared at each other and smiled. They looked like they were about to do something.
