Hello everyone and welcome to the latest installment of the Weekly Contests. I just wanted to take a moment to thank all of you for helping me a few weeks ago with getting my girlfriend Marian back from my brother, Jimmy. Man did we ever kick his ass!! Can you believe how much he cried when I put him in that headlock? What a wimp! Now let’s fast-forward to today: Jimmy and I are getting along a lot better now. Jimmy started dating this new girl, but they broke up and she seemed really pissed about it. So, this afternoon the two of us are chilling back at home with our new neighbors, the Battletoads. I know, right? I can hardly believe it myself! I’m neighbors with the…Battletoads! Their fourth brother, Jerms, couldn't make it unfortunately. They said he ate too much Spam the night before and got really sick. I'm sure Jimmy and I will meet him sooner or later. Also, the Ninja Turtles were supposed to be here, too, but they had to go save Manhattan from Shredder. Man, that Shredder guy is a party pooper! I was looking forward to hanging out with Michaelangelo since he’s a party dude and all. Anyway, the doorbell rings and Jimmy goes to answer the door. We get all excited because we think the Ninja Turtles have finished saving Manhattan. Pimple is practically shrieking like a girl, while Rash and Zitz are getting out their Ninja Turtles comics to get them autographed. Jimmy flings open the door, and much to our disappointment, there’s this giant rat standing there dressed up like a pizza-delivery man holding a pizza box. As Jimmy turns around and says “Who ordered a pizza,” the Battletoads’ jaws all drop to their knees and their eyes pop out of their heads as they bob up and down and point. Before I can do anything, this gas grenade comes flying from behind the rat and lands in the middle of the living room. Gas immediately pours from the canister and we all pass out. The last thing I remember before blacking out was seeing a half-man, half-robot shove his way past the rat and into our place, followed by a giant bull, and Abobo himself! And Abobo was saying something about leaving a special “Super C” gift in the toilet.
A little while later, we all came to and our attackers were nowhere to be found. Jimmy noticed a note pinned to his shirt and Rash immediately pulled it from his shirt. He unfolded the note and read the words scrawled across the paper:
“Jimmy,
It was stupid of you to break up with me! Can’t you see that we are supposed to be together forever? Since you don’t want me anymore, I have no choice but to destroy Earth! And to help me do that, I’ve recruited your arch-enemy, the Shadow Boss! You know, he is kind of handsome, hahaha! You want to stop me? You’ll have to get past Abobo, Roper, Big Blag, Robo-Manus, General Slaughter, the Shadow Boss, and yours truly! You and your brother Bimmy and those slimy toads don’t stand a chance! Hahahahahahaha! Come and get me…if you dare!
Much Love,
The Dark Queen
P.S. My minions also turned all your books around backward, re-arranged your DVDs so they are no longer in alphabetical order, drank all your beer and didn’t use coasters while they sat around your coffee table and watched wrestling on Pay-Per-View (wait until you get your cable bill, HAHAHAHAHAHA!!!), and last but not least, changed the time on all your clocks!! Hahahahahahaha!!!! Oh, and Abobo left you guys a nice “surprise” in your toilet. You will probably have to call a plumber.”
Can you believe this??? Jimmy was dating the Dark Queen???? Was he out of his mind??? And what is this with everyone calling me Bimmy? Hello, my name is Billy…B-I-L-L-Y…Billy!!! Not Bimmy! Bimmy isn’t even a real name! Also, if any of you out there is a plumber or knows a plumber, get them over to my place right away! What Abobo did to my bathroom this time around pales in comparison to the last time. Anyway, this is where we need your help. Jimmy, the Battletoads, and I need you to help us get to the Shadow Boss and the Dark Queen and stop them from destroying the planet. Cuz if you don’t, it’s lights out for all of us. And then afterward, please come help me plunge the toilet. I swear I will make it worth your while. I will give anyone who comes by to help a free copy of the Double Dragon Movie. Jimmy and I have tons of copies. I don’t understand why we couldn’t sell all of them. The movie wasn’t that bad, was it? Anyway, help guide the Ultimate Team to the bad guys’ base! Hmmmm, Ultimate Team…that sounds like a good tagline…I think the Battletoads and Jimmy and I should trademark that line…Anyway, here’s what you all need to do:
