Battle of the Puppets

Nick: Hi, I'm Nick Diamond.

Johnny: And I'm Johnny Gomez. Welcome to tonight's edition of Celebrity Deathmatch! Today's battle is the battle of the puppets! The winner will earn bragging rights as a PuppetMaster!

Nick: And we're not talking an undead ruler of zombies, either.

Johnny: Yes, that's right, Nick. This is big time. Look, here comes the first fighter now. It's Punching Puppet Ghaleon from Lunar!

GhalPup: I'll show you where real power comes from, Dyne! Er, I mean, Marion! Hehehe... *looks around nervously*

Nick: He's not exactly *from* the game, is he? Isn't he part of the packaging?

Johnny: That's right, Nick! Although I have no idea what you're supposed to do with him.

Nick: I can think of a couple of things *daydreams of using Punching Puppet Ghaleon to scare away door-to-door salesmen* Hehehe!

Johnny: Our challenger is Marion the marionette from Time Stalkers! I wonder how they ever came up with the name "Marion"?

Marion: This should be enlightening!

Nick: Wait a minute Johnny, shouldn't that be Marion from *Climax Landers*?

Johnny: No way, Nick! This is America! We don't care about the original artists' vision over here!

Nick: Hahaha, right you are Johnny! Oh, looks like the contenders are climbing into the ring. Hehe, little Ghaleon's having some trouble.

GhalPup: Once the world is mine, the first thing I'll do is to make these rings lower to the ground!

Johnny: He is a bit small, isn't he? Well, so is our special guest referee, Puppetmon!

Puppetmon: Okay, I want you two to play nice, got that? Otherwise I'll squash you both!

Marion: Squash us? Why would you want to do that? Why do you feel such harmful emotions?

GhalPup: You're going to "squash" me? The Great Sage Ghaleon? Hm hm hm, unlikely.

*Ding!*

Johnny: And the fight's begun!

Puppetmon: I have enough power to beat both of you blindfolded!

Marion: You have a lot of pent up hostility. It seems to cause irrational behavior in humans.

GhalPup: *Lil boxing glove flares with magic* Just try it, log-boy!

Nick: What's this? It looks like Puppetmon is trying to pick a fight with Ghaleon and Marion!

Johnny: Sure, we *could* have gotten Pinocchio, but the network wanted someone more "edgy". Great!

Puppetmon: Don't make me angry...! *takes out hammer*

GhalPup: Prepare to fry, log-boy!

Nick: Woah, Ghaleon's casting his great Inferno spell!!

*A tiny flame slowly approaches Puppetmon*

Johnny: Apparently, the Ghaleon Puppet's version of the spell is not so great...

Puppetmon: Hahahaha, you expect to stop me with THAT!? HAHAHAHA!

Johnny: And now Puppetmon is rolling on the mat laughing!

Nick: Hey Johnny, couldn't you have said "floor" instead of "mat"? No need to inconvenience Hatless like that.

Marion: I don't see what's so funny.

Johnny: The flame is getting close and Puppetmon doesn't seem to care...

Nick: But he should!

Puppetmon: Waaaah! My head is on fire! My head is on fire!

GhalPup: Hm hm hm.... and such is the fate of all who defy me! HAHAHAHAHA!

Nick: Oh, the Ghaleon Puppet looks so cute when he's maniacal, doesn't he?

Johnny: What's Marion doing? Is she... taking notes?!

Marion: This behavior is very interesting. I think I'll study them a bit longer.

Johnny: Marion is watching Puppetmon and Ghaleon fight it out! Unbelievable!

Puppetmon: Oww oww oww... you little jerk! *Puppet Power!*

Nick: Yikes, Puppetmon's going to use his nasty hammer attack against Ghaleon! This could end the fight right here!

GhalPup: Not so fast!

Johnny: And now Ghaleon's casting a spell, but what could be strong enough to ward off that vicious hammer?

Puppetmon: Woah!!!!!!!!!!

Nick: What the..?? Before Puppetmon could swing his hammer he was blasted through the ceiling of the auditorium! Apparently, Ghaleon's Anesthesia spell works fine, puppet or not!

GhalPup: Uh oh.... noooooo!!!!!!!!! KARG!! LOG-BOY! NOT YET!!...!

Johnny: A little TOO fine, Nick. Ghaleon just blasted *himself* out of the auditorium, right through the hole Puppetmon made!

Marion: Oh no, they're both gone. I can't observe them any longer....

Nick: Well, with the referee gone, I guess the only thing left to do is declare Marion the winner, the PuppetMaster!

Marion: I won? What is this human fascination with "winning"? What's the point of it?

Johnny: Oh boy. *shakes head* Join us next week, when our REGULAR referee WILL be back, or I quit!

Nick: You said it, Johnny! I'm Nick Diamond.

Johnny: And I'm Johnny Gomez, from Celebrity Deathmatch, saying, Good Fight, Good Night!
