RAIKU: Hey guys, are you ready for an... ADVENTURE?
RAGGON: Of course we are!!
RAIKU: But first, we need to teach the kids something!! {Pulls out a lime} Do you know what this is?
KIDS: A LIME!!
RAIKU: That's right! And do you know what they do?
KIDS: SOUR!!
RAIKU: Kinda, but they do something too! They can stop people from getting a very bad disease, called scurvy!
RAGGONIX: Say, hyuk hyuk! What's all this scurvy y'all talkin' about?!
RAIKU: Scurvy is caused by a deficiency of Vitamin C in the diet. It can cause your gums to swell and start bleeding, and your teeth to fall out. It can also weaken you drastically as it can also weaken muscles. Another symptom of this deadly disease is that if left untreated, it can kill you! But, if you eat one of these.. YOUR SCURVY IS CURED!!
KIDS: YAY!!
RAIKU: Now that your noodlenoggins have been fed, let's carry on with the story!!

ARAGONI: No, don't boo! I'm Raiku's friend!!
KIDS: YAY!!
RAIKU: Say, Aragoni.. What are you here for?
ARAGONI: I'm here because I need your help. A really naughty demon has stolen my loot! And I need you to find it! I saw him around here..
{A tiny little red man appears beside Aragoni.}
KIDS: There he is!!
ARAGONI: WHERE? {Notices the demon.} THERE YOU ARE!! {Attempts to pick it up, but it dissapears.} Blast it! I'll never find him now!!
RAIKU: Kids, how about we go look for him?
KIDS: YEAH!!!
RAIKU: Let's sing a song first, to cheer up Aragoni!! Let's give it up.. for VANILLA ICE!!
{Vanilla Ice walks in, wearing a Zoot Suit.}
VANILLA ICE: Yo! Let's kick it!
- Yeah, you lost your loot, dat ain't goot!
- I hope you feel better 'cause I'm wearin' a zoot!
- I'm making a rap, that demon needs a slap!
- Do your homework before you go to school
- Or the teachers will look at you like you're some kinda fool!
- I'm getting paid $2 an hour for this!
- I'm White and I'm poor, please sir I want some more!
- Yo!
RAIKU: Thanks Vanilla!
VANILLA ICE: I feel so cold.... {Leaves.}
RAIKU: So, Aragoni.. Where is he headed?
ARAGONI: Well, I expect him to be down in the coves... But that's miles away! You can't get there quick enough!
RAIKU: Don't worry, because I have a solution!! Raggonix! Transform!
{Raggonix expands and turns into a sailboat.}
RAIKU: With this, we'll be able to go anywhere as fast as we can!
KIDS: YAY!!
RAIKU: Do you want to know how boats float?
KIDS: YAY!!
RAIKU: A boat stays afloat because its weight is equal to that of the water it displaces. The material of the boat itself may be heavier than water (per volume), but it forms only the outer layer. Inside it is air, which is negligible in weight. But it does add to the volume. The central term here is density, which is mass per volume. The mass of the boat (plus contents) as a whole has to be divided by the volume below the waterline. If the boat floats, then that is equal to the density of water (1 kg/l). To the water it is as if there is water there because the average density is the same. If weight is added to the boat, the volume below the waterline will have to increase too, to keep the mass/weight balance equal, so the boat sinks a little to compensate.
RAGGONIX: Now that we all know how a boat floats, let's go!
{Cut to a sailing montage, with Raiku, Raggon, and Aragoni riding on Raggonix!Boat, sailing to the deep dark coves of Shanty Town.}
{The montage is now over, and Raiku, Raggon, Raggonix and Aragoni are all standing at the cove docks, waiting to venture inside.}
RAIKU: Alright friends, WE ARE HERE! Can anyone give three cheers? HIP HIP..
KIDS: HOORAY!!!
RAGGON: That's not loud enough! I could barely hear it!
RAIKU: Come on, kids.. Let's make it so loud that even my father can hear! HIP HIP...
KIDS: HOOOOOOOOOOOOOORRRRRRRAAAAAAAYYYY!!!!!!!!
{Cut to the deepest, darkest depths of hell. Satan is sitting at his throne, reading a newspaper. For some reason, he has the face of Woody Allen. He looks at the camera with a nervous expression plastered upon his face.}
SATAN: OH MY.
{Cut back}
RAIKU: I think he heard that one!
KIDS: YAAAAAAYYY!!!!
ARAGONI: YARR HARR, Where that little demon be?
RAIKU: We don't know yet, but I promise you.. WE WILL FIND HIM, NO MATTER THE COST.
RAGGONIX: Hyuk Hyuk! That's right, sir! HYYYYYYUK!!
RAIKU: Anyway, shall we look further into the caves? {Points to a nearby cave path.}
RAGGONIX: I guess so.
RAIKU: Alrighty then! But first, we need some music! Ready kids?
