House of Baloo 2, 3

"So, even though Tempus is gone for now you know he will be back. We got to be prepared. That's why I've made a table of treats."

"Zephyr, you've had a hard day. Step right up. Pick a gun, any gun."

"Okay how about this o-"

"NOOOOOOOOO!"

"..."

"I'm sorry, not that gun. That one's not ready. It's yours when it is."

"Here, in the meantime.. This."

"Wow! What does it do?"

"It's a Swiss Army knife. No person should walk around unarmed."

"I know what it does."

"Also, here, why don't you take this."

"Yeah?"

"Give that a toss. That's gonna send up a little poof. It's only dangerous to figures."

"All right. Okay."

The contraption exploded and accidentally set a bike on fire.

"Oh, nice!"

"Yeah, my mistake. It was a medium poof."

"This puppy I like to call a Figure Chipper. Hollow-laser technology, sucks in the figure and neutralizes it. Step up to bat and do what you're gonna do."

"You truly scare me. I just want to let you know that." Patty said.

"I'm gonna just..."

Patty sucked in garbage and the garbage went into Neon and Zephyrs face.

"Oh...Come on!"

"Oh, it's like Mardi Gras in there."

"It's a proton glove. It's gonna maximize flexibility during hand-to-specter combat. Just give it a punch, it's motion-activated."

The proton glove bounced around and set another bike on fire.

"Ha-ha!"

"That was awesome!"

"Yeah!"

"No, that is a deadly high five."

"No."

"Hey, guys, I'd call this a successful test."

"And with that, I'm pretty hungry."

"Me too." Patty said.

"We gotta get out of here. We gotta get something to eat. We gotta find that Basset Hound."

"I'll just see you guys tomorrow. I gotta go. I'm sorry." Neon said.

Patty and X went to go get something to eat, whilst Neon went home.

Some time passed by...

...

Zephyr was alone in the house.

"Did you guys lose your keys? What did I tell you? Pin it to your equipment, That's where mine is, and it..."

Nobody was there..

"Who's out there? X I swear to God, I..."

"..."
