[Scene opens on a medieval looking Sooga Village. Destiny sings as the scene continues panning over the area, stopping at Destiny, who is strumming a lute.]

Destiny: The knights of the roundtable… tasted good with fried rice! And a damsel in jajang sauce is also rather nice. [Smells a tasty aroma. Scene then cuts to the source of the smell; the three chefs serving people noodle bowls. Ho and Uncle Dumpling stir the giant cooking bowl while Linguini holds a bowl, waiting. Ching, Pucca and Dada pass the bowl to the people.]

Ho: No need to push it, poor wretches. [Uncle Dumpling ladles the noodles.]

Uncle Dumpling: There’s enough noodles for everyone!

Linguini: The finest in all [Uncle Dumpling dumps the noodles into the bowl Linguini is holding] of Sooga Wood Forest. [Passes bowl to the line of people. Destiny stands behind a person.]

Destiny: Now, what have we here? [Snatches noodle bowl and eats it, causing the person to cry] Mmm! I still feel a bit peckish. [Snatches Dada, who tries to flee. He is then tossed into the air and swallowed. Destiny gives a fiery burp and walks away. Gags as stomach rumbles] Hod spudkins! I should’ve checked the best before date on that scullery boy.

Uncle Dumpling: That was our last noodle bowl!

Ho: Without it, we can’t finish feeding the poor.

Ching: Don’t worry, Pucca and I will get your bowl back for you! [Pucca nudges Ching] Huh? O-oh yeah, and Dada too. [Pucca and Ching smile as they and the people watch Destiny sing and walk towards the sunset.]

Destiny: Oh medieval life, it is trouble and strife! You rarely get a break. And now that I have swallowed that guy, I have a bellyaaaache, oogh! [Zoom into Destiny’s stomach. Inside, Dada lights a torch and hears a woman.]

Woman: Lee-vi-gom, a mighty knight has come to rescue me! And I thought these things only happened in fairytales, I did.

Dada: Oh, hello! [Gushes with love] Who’re you?

Woman: They call me Rat Teeth, they do!

Dada: Rat Teeth, [Falls in love, turning red] oh my gosh! You’re as beautiful as your name.

Rat Teeth: Ooh, ohh, you’re a keeper, you are! [Runs over and hugs Dada. The two jump happily, causing Destiny to stop at a tree and groan in pain, holding his stomach. Destiny burps out hearts.]

Destiny: Oh man, heartburn. [Scene fades to black.]

[Scene opens on Muji and his zombies having a feast in a forest.]

Muji: Zombies, keep an eye out for that no good do-gooder, Garu Hood. [Zombies grunt and clash tankards. Muji hops on the table] A toast! To being not just evil, [Swings tankard] but med-evil! [Muji and the zombies toast and drink. While they do, an arrow grabs the turkey and steals it away without being noticed. Reeling it back and jumping through trees, Garu, dressed as Robin Hood, sees a group of sad goblins and chucks it at them. They cheer and run away as Garu chuckles to himself. A pink goblin runs back to hug him, then scurries away. Ching and Pucca pop up from a bush.]

Ching: We could use this noble ninja’s help to rescue the noodle bowl! [Pucca nudges Ching, clearing her throat] Oh yeah, and Dada too. [Pucca giggles and the two run off.]

[Scene transitions to Abyo and Santa at a fireplace. Garu walks in.]

Abyo: Oh, you’re back! We were starting to- [A noise coming from some trees startles the group] Friend or foe? [Ching giggles as she and Pucca come from behind a tree]

Ching: Friend.

Abyo: Oh! [Introduces Garu] This is Garu Hood [Garu Hood waves], and we are his merry ninjas! I’m Little Abyo, and [Cut to Santa salting a lizard] this is Friar Santa.

Friar Santa: Oh ho ho ho, [Waves] hello! [Ching walks up to Little Abyo.]

Ching: We need to rescue a bowl. [Pucca clears her throat offscreen] Heh, and Dada. [Scene zooms out as Pucca walks up to Ching and Little Abyo] Will you and your merry ninjas join us in this honorable quest? [Garu Hood nods, but Little Abyo jumps in front of him.]

Little Abyo: Before we do, [Points] one of you must show me a test of your muscle. [Jumps] HII-YA! [Rips off shirt and proceeds to punch and kick the air. Pucca grabs Little Abyo’s leg and throws him at a tree. He reels upside down] Welcome aboard. [Scene fades to black.]

[Scene fades back to a dreamlike sequence, where Rat Teeth and Dada skip by, holding hands, hugging and giggling. The background fades back to reality, inside Destiny’s stomach. A small rat runs by. The two awe as the rat hops into Rat Teeth’s arms.]

Rat Teeth: Goochie goochie goo! [Tosses rat to Dada.]

Dada: Oh, hi little fella- [The rat attacks Dada as Rat Teeth happily watches. Destiny still moans at the tree when a knight with a sword approaches him.]

Knight: For sooth, I shall slay thee! [Destiny burps fire at the knight, crumbling his sword.]

[Scene dissolves to Garu Hood’s group walking with Ching and Pucca through the forest. They see the same knight, now hammering a new sword. Santa laughs.]

Friar Santa: By any chance, have you seen a huuuge dragon?

Knight: Indeed I have. And I’ll tell you where he can be found, if [Continues hammering] you complete these challenges three.

Little Abyo: [Sighs] Knights. Always with the challenges three.

Knight: [Offscreen] First, [Holds up glowing sword] you must remove the magic sword [Plunges sword into the basin of water] from the stone!

[Garu Hood attempts to pull the sword out, but to no avail, walking away in defeat. Pucca thinks and hops up on the stone. She grabs the entire stone with the sword and smashes it on the ground, giggling. Scene then pans over to Garu Hood pulling on and climbing a long black strand of braided hair.]

Knight: [Offscreen] Second, you must find [Pan to a shield] the Shield of Gold, [Zoom out to show Garu climbing the tower on the hair] and claim it as your prize. [Enters tower window. The braided hair is revealed to belong to Pucca who, running over to kiss Garu Hood, is blocked when he uses the Shield on her. Cut to Garu Hood standing next to Master Soo dressed as a wizard] And third, you must get me Merlin Soo’s Flying Cloud.

Merlin Soo: You can borrow my cloud. [Throws keys at Garu Hood and gets off cloud] Eh, but, give it a good wash when you’re done with it, [Walks away] will ya. [Garu nods. Travelling on the cloud, he sees that Pucca is behind him. She hugs him, much to his dismay.]

[Scene dissolves to the group back at the forest. The knight is standing on the cloud with the sword and shield.]

Ching: Now that Garu Hood has completed the challenges three, can you please tell us where we can find that dragon?

Knight: Follow the road but watch out for the ruts. There, you find a dragon clutching his guts. [Zooms away as the scene fades to black.]

[Scene fades back to Destiny, now laying against the tree, groaning. His stomach rumbles. The group approaches him. Ching and Pucca gasp.]

Little Abyo: Stand back, Garu Hood! I’ll handle this. HIIIII- [Jumps. As Destiny yawns, Little Abyo accidentally lands in Destiny’s mouth, who swallows him.]

Destiny: Mmm, merry ninjas! [Beams] They coat ‘n soothe the stomach. [Jumps towards Garu Hood] It’s time for the second course! [Garu gasps and pulls out a sword. He jumps and attacks Destiny’s face. The three gasp. Rustling through trees, Destiny chucks Garu Hood near a lake. His sword falls in the water. Destiny approaches and grabs Garu Hood, but is distracted by beams of light coming from the lake before he can eat Garu Hood. Pucca emerges from the lake, now dressed as the Lady of the Lake, holding the sword. Destiny proceeds to swallow Garu Hood] Mmm! [Pucca gasps and rages with anger, running on the lake towards Destiny] That last ninja was particularly y- [Knocks Destiny out, causing him to spit out Garu Hood, Little Abyo, Rat Teeth and Dada. Pucca points the sword at a defeated Destiny] I am not cut out for the stereotypical dragon life. [Pan over to Santa and Ching, watching from a bush.]

Friar Santa: Wow! That Lady in the Lake ain’t so ladylike, ho ho ho ho. [Dada, with the missing bowl on his head,  jumps and claps in excitement.]

Dada: Ohh, we’re free! [Hugs Rat Teeth] Now we can be married and spend the rest of our lives together. [Kisses Rat Teeth’s face. The kiss turns Rat Teeth into a well dressed Ring Ring, who steps back, appalled.]

Ring Ring: Marry you? [Laughs as Dada looks down] Not a chance. [Walks away] I’m outta here! [Dada looks down.]

Dada: Ohhh, rats. [A rat runs up and attacks Dada, causing him to drop the missing bowl.]

[Scene transitions to the same bowl, now filled with noodles, being served from Linguini to the person.]

Linguini: There you go. [The person walks away.]

Uncle Dumpling: Now all the poor have been fed! [Scene zooms out to show the three chefs as the person walks offscreen.]

Ho: At least until dinner time. [The three chefs laugh. Scene pans over to a satisfied Garu Hood, watching from a tree. He sighs, but is promptly shaken off the tree by Pucca, who whacks him with said tree to the tower from before. Pucca happily rushes over to the tower as Garu lands and can be heard kissing him. A giant heart emerges from the window and drifts away as the scene fades to black.]
