RYAN: {narrating} It's been 2 years since the attack on Free Country USA, the day when the evil king almost conquered the world. This email show is about a man whose friend gave his life to save them all. Everything has changed amoung him and his friends.
NAMINE: We really don't need this exposition. For one thing, it's not really grammar-savvy.
{Fade to a view of each of my old characters scrolling by}
RYAN: Accidents have happened, conflicts arose, one went homeless, and one got a job at a...deli?
{Fade into Aruseus' new house}
RYAN: That one man, after the separation of all of his friends, moved away. There he met new people, new friends, new stars of Fake Character Email Aruseus.
{Fade into Aruseus' room, he is asleep on the bed}
ARUSEUS: {waking up} Day two of my new life, and I still miss my friends. If Fang didn't die, than this would've never happened. Well, I gotta face the facts. All of my other friends that are not a part of The Aura Chronicles are gone.
NAMINE: {imitating Arceus} Because I chose to have them all bugger off instead of at least writing to them using the very message system I employ for the purposes of humouring a bunch of people.
{Cut to the Computer Room}
ARUSEUS: Well, I guess it's email time. {Clicks the email icon}
subject: I. Need. Some.Aruseus.
You owe me money.
Give me it and a Xbox game.
A guy you owe money.
ARUSEUS: {typing} Wait, what? I don't owe anyone anything! This is bull honkey! Well, I guess I'll give you your stinking money so you don't bug me.
NAMINE: This email was one you could've deleted and nobody would care. Especially since it's coming from a guy who claims you owe him an XBox game when you could care less about Microsoft.
{Aruseus opens a "pocket," which is actually a flap of fur, he takes out a soggy five-dollar bill and a penny}
{Namine retches.}
ARUSEUS: Well, I got 5 dollars and a cent. Joy.
{Jamie walks in}
JAMIE: You could just run a paper route. That's how I'm saving up for my motorbike.
ARUSEUS: Really? How's it going?
JAMIE: Well... {pulls out a calculator} I make...
NAMINE: You make how much now?
and the bike is...I've got $35,360 to go.
NAMINE: I'm fairly certain that you forgot to factor your bills into that equation.
ARUSEUS: I need help. I need to give this guy money and an Xbox game.
JAMIE: Borrow my bike. Break it and I'll tear out your heart, rip your head clean off and drink the sweat with a bendy straw.
ARUSEUS: OK!
{Cut to Aruseus riding the bike down the road, he's throwing papers}
NAMINE: A semicolon makes me not have to tie Noxigar to a chair in order to get him to stop going berserk from the numerous grammatical errors made in Arceus Emails.
{Cut to Megan's House, Tom and Megan are playing Brawl}
ANNOUNCER: The winner is...Toon Link!
TOM: NOT AGAIN! Jeez! That's like the 43rd time I've lost!
MEGAN: I'm just that good!
NAMINE: Alternate and more realistic scenario: Tom is just that bad at videogames. That is the true punchline, after all.
{A glass-break noise is heard and Tom is hit with a newspaper}
TOM: DAH! {falls over}
MEGAN: You ok?
TOM: Yes...newspapers aren't that blunt.
{Cut to Cheap As Free XBox games}
ARUSEUS: I'll buy this one.
{Cut back to the E-Mach}
ARUSEUS: {typing} There you go, Guyman. I got you your Sonic Next Gen. Now play it and enjoy it, or I'll rip out your esophagus, feed it to you, and give you a mind crush.
NAMINE: Congratulations. You met a loophole with Sonic 2006.
{The Paper comes down}
ARUSEUS: Wow, haven't heard that in months.
Easter Eggs
- Click on "Guyman" and Wolf will pop up and say:
WOLF: I'm not actually in this episode...where's my lawyer?
NAMINE: Pretty certain that you don't need one for not being included in something. After all, you've already wasted your breath in several other episodes before Season 3 started.
