AAnne
My house. This is really happening. I'm gonna see my parents.
So... It's too early to call them "mom" and "dad", right? Should I call them "Mr. and Mrs. Boonchuy"? Are they tongue-shake people?
AAnne
Okay... you three should probably hide in here for the time being. I wanna ease them into all of this slowly. And when the time is right, I'll signal, "Caw caw!" Do not come out until you hear that.
[She hides them in a trash bin]
AAnne
Oh, and I'm not gonna tell them I plan to go back and stop Andrias. Or that Andrias betrayed us. Or that Marcy did. Or that Sasha did. And not a word about my weird glowing blue powers. Wow, there's a lot going on.
BMrs. Boonchuy
ANNE SAVISA BOONCHUY! What is going on?!
AAnne
What do you mean? There's a giant robot trying to kill us. I thought that was clear.
BMrs. Boonchuy
YES! But why, Anne? Why? Is there something you want to tell us?
BMr. Boonchuy
Honey, maybe we should hear her out.
BMrs. Boonchuy
NO! She's lying to us! You've done something, haven't you?! That's why that thing is after us!
BMrs. Boonchuy
I knew it! We were wrong about you. You're still the same irresponsible little girl who used to cut class. When are you going to grow up? When are you going to stop getting in trouble? When, Anne? WHEN!?
AAnne
I DON'T KNOW, OKAY?!
(Long pause)
AAnne
I don't know when I'll be the daughter you want me to be. And I'm sorry. It's true. I did lie. But I did it to protect the people I really care about.
AAnne
I've learned so much from you two in these past few weeks. I finally appreciate how much you've done for me. Now I'm asking for your help. (holds her mother's hands) Please. I can't do this without you.
[reading the prophecy of the Calamity Box] "Three stars, burning bright, / Come from beyond to expel the night. / Should they fight or embrace the fall? / Their choice will determine the fate of all."
Do you burn bright with the power of the stones?
AAnne
Well, I have powers.
[excited] Wait! Do Marcy and I get cool anime powers too?!
Yes, honey! You should all get cool anime powers!
[Sasha is on the brink of near-death with Darcy]
DDarcy
Well, Sash, it's been fun!
[Darcy swings up the scythe to kill Sasha and give the final blow... then notices something.]
[Opens a window to see Andrias losing to Anne]
DDarcy
Aldrich, your son is losing the will to fight. That weakling! (glances over to Sasha) Hey Sasha, as a fellow control freak, you'll probably really appreciate this!
[Fires a wave of red energy which reacts to Andrias' crown]
DDarcy
Andrias! Stand up and fight, you pathetic excuse for a king! We are all you need. We are all you will ever have!
[Grime kicks Sasha's sword over to her]
AAnne
(in Sasha's thoughts) It's not who we were that matters, Sash. It's who we are now that counts.
[Sasha stands; Darcy's words get to Andrias and he resumes the fight]
DDarcy
There. That's better.
[They get swiped at by Sasha]
I am not that person anymore!
[The scythe is knocked away, but Darcy remains normal...]
DDarcy
Pfft... You missed.
[Reveals the cord on the back of Darcy's helmet has been severed]
DDarcy
AAAAAAAGH!!!!! My connection! You FOOL! DO YOU HAVE ANY IDEA WHAT YOU'VE DONE?!? NOOOOO!!! NOOOOOOOO...AAAAAAAAAHHHHHHHHH!!!!!!!!!
[The Core shuts down and Darcy falls, the helmet falling off returning Marcy to her old self]
’’[After the invasion, Mother Olm shows up and informs everyone about the moon]’’’
Well, we stopped the invasion, but now it looks like the moon is about to kill us all, so, (shrugs) mixed bag?
I see. Then the prophecy has finally come to pass.
(gasps) Sasha mentioned this! What did it say? What did it say?
AAnne
It said that the three of us would save the world. So, let's go save the world!
Well, just a minute, the prophecy doesn't necessarily say you'll succeed.
ASAnne, Sasha & Marcy
(confused) Wh-wha?
You see, the prophecy isn't so much a prediction as it is a humble request for help. And know this: You have to tap into the energy that remains in the stones in order to get the energy you need. However, if you do that...
AAnne
There might not be enough energy left for us to get home.
We could be stuck in Amphibia forever.
Anne, one more thing. The stones are strong, but they may not be enough to defeat the Core. If things look bad out there, don't forget about the secret spell.
AAnne
Wait, the secret what now?
Didn't I tell you about that?
(sighs and shrugs) Well, the stones are rumored to hold a hidden power, enough to defeat any foe. But summoning such power... COMES AT A PRICE. The life of the user.
AAnne
So, whoever uses this spell and calls on the power of all three stones... will die.
Mmm.. yeah. But hopefully it will never come to that.
[After the Core is destroyed, Frobo brings Anne, who has been petrified and exhausted due to the results of the secret spell]
Come on, Anne... you'll be okay...
AAnne
[supposed last words] Don't cry, Sprig. It's okay. Saving this world was the best decision I've ever made. My only regret is that... I never... got to see Love Choice 2...
[Everyone chuckles for this, and Anne’s body whithers into leaves which float toward the cosmos]
[Ten years after Andrias and Darcy’s defeats, an adult Anne is showing a frog to the class at the Aquarium of the Pacific]
AAnne
A frogs environment is everything, they love humanity. [shows the children a pink frog] this energetic fella is a Pink South American Tree Frog!
[the children stare in amazement]
CChildren
Wow! So cute! What’s his name?
AAnne
I named him Sprig, after a dear dear friend of mine!
TTeacher
Okay, class, everyone thank Anne the herpetologist.
CChlidren
Thanks, Frog Lady! [they leave]
ABAnne Boonchuy
Change can be difficult, but it's how we grow. It can be the hardest thing to realize you can't hold on to something forever. Sometimes... you have to let it go. But of the things you let go... you'd be surprised... what makes its way... back to you.
