Years Later/There's a Rumor in New York City (Equestria Version)

(Then we crossfade to Earth as we slowly zoom in the clouds as well, and into the bustling futuristic metropolis of New York City)

New York City, 2990, 19,90 years later

(Then we slowly zoom all the way to the bustling streets near the Natural History Museum. When the zooming ended, the people then began singing)

Man 1: New York City is glorious

Woman 1: New York City is bustling

Man 2: My bonus is really making me rich

People of New York: Oh, since the rise of technologies

Our lives have been so great

And as for the gossip

That gets us through the day

(Then while the song continued, three males, one human and two anthro penguins, are walking out of the museum looking happy and excited. The human male is a. He is Howl Jenkins. The first anthro penguin has. He is Hubie, Howl's friend and partner. And the last anthro penguin has. He is Rocko, Howl and Hubie's friend and partner)

People of New York: Hey, have you heard?

There’s a rumor in New York City

Have you heard

What they’re saying on the streets?

(Then Basil's group came up to a newspaper man and bought today's paper, as if interested on the front page's story involving a certain lost planet from 19,90 years ago)

Man 3: Although this kingdom didn’t thrive

It might still be alive

(Then Basil's group walked off, reading the whole article involving....)

People of New York: The legendary Mystica Planet

Man 4: But please do not repeat.

(Then Basil's group headed their way to the curator's office back in the museum after reading the paper)

People of New York: It’s a rumor

A legend

A mystery

Something whispered in an alleyway

Or through a crack

It’s a rumor

That’s part of

Our history

(Inside the museum, Basil's group arrived at the curator's office as a female janitor greeted them)

Woman 2: They say the history museum

Will make a new exhibit

People of New York: For someone who might

Find the lost planet kingdom

(Then Basil's group greeted the manager named Mr. Honeycut (OC character))

Mr. Honeycut: Are you sure you want to fund an expedition after what happened to One-Eyed Willie and his crew?

Basil: We're positive, Mr. Honeycut.

Charlie: Why else did Christopher Columbus come back successful finding the new world in 1492? Because of a true theory he believed, thinking that....

Mr. Honeycut: I know, I know. The world is not flat.

Itchy: But it might be risky.

Basil: Risky is our first names.

Mr. Honeycut: Then your last names must be "Fools."

(Ignoring that insult, Basil's group and Mr. Honeycut then went up to the restoration team with some Mystica Planet artifacts they found recently)

Man 5: A dollar for this painting

It’s Mystican, I swear

Woman 3: Two rare Mystican earrings

Mister, buy a pair

Man 6: We got these from a surviving expedition

It’s like the rarest of all

Man 5 and 6 and Woman 3: It could be worth a fortune

If they came from the planet

(Then Basil's group and Mr. Honeycut left the museum while Mr. Honeycut remained near the entrance, giving in)

Mr. Honeycut: Very well. But mark my words, Basil, Dawson, Charlie, and Itchy, if you come back with nothing from this expedition, without disappearing like One-Eyed Willie or getting killed, you're fired!

Basil and Charlie: Deal.

Dawson and Itchy: What?!

(Basil and Mr. Honeycut shook their hands and then with that, Basil's group left. Later, they went back to their apartment)

Itchy: Are you crazy, guys?!

Dawson: You're costing us our jobs if we fail!

Charlie: Nonsense, you guys.

Basil: We're talking about the biggest risk we're taking and what we dreamed of!

(Realizing they're right, Itchy and Dawson gave in)

Dawson: Very well.

Itchy: If you insist.

Charlie: But before we fund our expedition, shall we visit our friends at the Verde Inn?

Basil: Good idea, Charles.

Itchy and Dawson: Yes.

Itchy: At least Ogremon, Cloud, and Aerith believe in us.

Dawson: Unlike Mr. Honeycut.

(Then Basil's group walked out onto the streets again, heading for the bus station to take a bus to the Verde Inn)

Basil: But can you imagine?

(Then he and his group started singing)

Basil: It’s the rumor

The legend

The mystery

Charlie: It’s Mystica Planet itself

That’ll help us fly

Basil and Charlie: You and us, friends

Will go down

In history

Basil: We’ll form a crew

From someone who believes

In the planet’s existence

Charlie: Pack up some supplies

And sail off into the stars

Basil and Charlie: Imagine the rewarding exhibit

The museum will have

Who else can pull it off

But you and us?

We’ll be rich

Dawson and Itchy: We'll be rich

Basil and Charlie: We’ll be famous

Dawson and Itchy: We'll be famous

Basil's group: And New York City

Will have some more

To talk about

(They resumed their trek to the bus station as the people started singing)

People of New York: Shh, have you heard?

There’s a rumor in New York City

Have you heard

What they’re saying on the streets?

Hey

Hey

(Basil's group arrived at the bus station and took the bus)

People of New York: Hey, have you heard?

There’s a rumor in New York City

Have you heard

Mister, what do you suppose?

A fascinating mystery

Basil and Charlie: The biggest adventure in history

People of New York: The legendary Mystica Planet

A myth or real planet?

Man 7: Who knows?

Shh

(Then the song ended as Basil's group disembarked from the bus and entered the Verde Inn upon arrival)

Basil's group: Hey!

(Then three people noticed them and greeted them in calm happiness. The first person is a. He is Cid Highwind, the manager of the Verde Inn. The second person is a. She is Shera, Cid's wife. And the last person is a. He is King Tull of Enlad, owner of the Verde Inn)

Cloud, Aerith, and Ogremon: Basil, guys!

Aerith: You came as promised from yesterday.

Basil: Exactly. The schedule, which we made, is precisely 12:00 at the Verde Inn for lunch, where we shall discuss any news, either good or bad, involving our funded expedition for Mystica Planet since the disappearance of Captain One-Eyed Willie and his pirate crew of justice and founded some artifacts that were teleported from their ship from our last contact with them before the disappearance.

Cloud: Yep. Good ol' Basil knows best.

Dawson: Never doubt him.

Basil: Thank you. And it's elementary, my dear friends.

(Aerith places a bowl of cheese-covered salad)

Aerith: Here you are.

Basil: Thank you, Aerith. You're too kind.

Aerith: (Smiling softly) And I remembered to put melted Swiss cheese on it.

(As they enjoy their appetizers, they resumed their conversation)

Cloud: And speaking of Mystica Planet, our sons, Sora, Riku, Roxas, and the Gangreen Gang, along with their friends, Christopher and Arren, have told us that they share the same dream as you.

Ogremon: Although my five sons have no interest one bit.

Aerith: Well, Ogremon, they used to be interested.

Tull: (Sighs) Yeah, but still....

(He looks at a picture of a. She is Queen Olna of Enlad, his deceased wife who passed away four years ago)

Tull: Ever since Olna's passing four years ago, they changed in a bad way.

Cloud: And even Arren and Christopher are starting to act like them as well.

Dawson: Speaking of Sora's group....

Itchy: How are they lately?

Cloud: Sora, Riku, and Roxas are doing great.

Aerith: Ever since we just bailed Christopher, Arren, and the Gangreen Gang, and them, out of jail last week.

Basil's group: (Surprised) Bailed out of jail?

Basil: What for?

Ogremon: My sons, Christopher, and Arren stupidly made illegal kickboxing competitions bets that got them and Sora, Riku, and Roxas arrested.

Charlie: Did they see the light after that?

Cloud: That's what they said after what happened last week.

Aerith: All we could do is pray and hope that they stay good.

Ogremon: And possibly turning a corner if they stay out of trouble. So, rest assured, I'm sure they're staying out of trouble, hoverboarding in the park instead.

(But little did he and the others know, he might be wrong again, as if it happened many times before)

'Coming up: After Christopher wins another illegal kickboxing competition in the park with Arren and the Gangreen Gang's help, they end up in trouble and sent to jail again along with Sora, Riku, and Roxas, who're trying to keep the seven out of trouble. Then after they're bailed out again and berated, Sora's group meet a dying certain patch-wearing one-eyed Knave of Hearts from a certain disappeared pirate crew of justice and are given a wrapped up package that came with him and a cryptic warning, foreshadowing the events to come. Then Sora's group and the others escape the Verde Inn secretly while it is soon destroyed by a group of shady mysterious villains, who are searching for the object Sora's group were given.'
