Kitty: Hey, everybody! Welcome to the next round of the Masked Toon Singer Season 3! Just to recap, we just ended the first round by revealing the Shower, who was the Phonics Fox from my own series. Who'd have thought that the vixen who tried to teach Dudley his phonics would be a good singer? ;3

Cadence: Well, not us, Kitty, that's for sure. Since we didn't even guess her.

Kitty: Yeah, I know. ^^; Anywho, we've made it to Round 2! And, to start things off, we have the last three members of Group A, Triceratops, Blob, and Snail, facing off against the last three members of Group B, Camel, Pancakes, and the Venus Flytraps. And, for the clues they'll be sharing with us this time, we...

*Kitty suddenly gets interrupted by the Clue Shark.*

Clue Shark: I'm takin' over this round, sweet cheeks!

Kitty: Oh, it's that darn Clue Shark again!

Fred: Listen, Shark! If you swim on by here again, you're gonna be dealin' with the business end of my fishing rod!

Clue Shark: Ha! I'd like to see you try, fatso! Anyway, I'll be popping up after each contestant's performance, and I'll be sharing with you all a little something from their Clue Packages that you may have missed, as well as share a little something about myself. So, just when you thought it was safe to go back in the water, I'll be swimming by this round! So, get used to it! (fizzles out)

Terry: Something tells me that I'm not gonna enjoy this.

Isabelle: I don't like it, already.

Kitty: Well, anyway, let's get the next round started with Group A! First up in Group A, we have a three-horned powerhouse who's hoping to make the rest of his competition go extinct! Yup, it's one of our surprise contenders from the previous round, the Triceratops!

Triceratops: Well, whaddaya know? I never thought I'd make it to the next round along with Blob and Snail, so I'd better step up my a-game if I'm gonna make it even further in this competition. This Southern-born all-star ain't backin' down, and if I play my cards right, everyone's gonna be singin' my praises as opposed to labelling me as a freak of nature. In fact, my friends and I were all considered freaks just because we're "different," but one day, I can see us living among everybody in perfect harmony. 'Cause let me tell you something, baby, when it comes to bein' awesome, to me, "X" marks the spot. ;)
Song: "Someday I'll Be Saturday Night" by Bon Jovi: https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=FSntdG7M9Ew

Kitty: Wow! Triceratops is really stepping it up this time!

Terry: Yeah, he is. ^^

Isabelle: I don't know. He seems a little more laid back this time.

Fred: Well, maybe he wanted to do something different this time around.

Kitty: Well, at any rate, let's see what kind of special clue he has in store for us.

*The Clue Shark then appears on the screen behind them.*

Clue Shark: I thought you'd never say that, pussycat. ;) Here's a little something from the Triceratops' clue package that you might have missed! (shows everyone a map of Louisiana shown in the background of the Triceratops' clue package)

Cadence: A map of Louisiana? Could this character be from the deep south?

Fred: Could it be Prince Naveen from "Princess and the Frog"?

Clue Shark: Well, noodle on that for a bit, you light bulbs! In the meantime, here's a little clue about ME! (pulls out a poorly Photoshopped image of a St. Bernard with the heads of a Siberian husky and a Pomeranian on both sides) Smell ya later. ;) (fizzles out)

Kitty: Hmrph. That Clue Shark. Always trolling us. But, at any rate, let's move on to our next contestant. Another fan favorite from Group A. It's the big, gooey, and purple Blob!

Blob: It's amazing how far I'm getting in this competition, and thankfully, I've got nine lives to get on that stage, and show everyone what I'm made of! And, I wouldn't have done it without the support of my faithful friends in the sky. In fact, they've told me that my ancestor was actually a queen already, but not the Queen of the Masked Toon Singers, unfortunately. They said that one of their greatest foes tried to marry her just to take control of her kingdom. I didn't believe it until he tried to do the same thing to me when he released some mummies on my fair city. But, I'll show that creepy little gremlin. This performance of mine will show him that I'm not one to be trifled with. And, that I'm not his type.
Song: "Miss Independent" by Kelly Clarkson: https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=esJk2hnckLs

Kitty: Holy cow! That performance really hit us like a ton of bricks! And, trust me. I know what THAT felt like.

Fred: Don't worry. I know, as well.

Cadence: It's clear that she's really playing for keeps here.

Terry: Yeah. She's starting to become a serious contender this season!

Kitty: But, enough of the compliments. Why don't we see what kind of clue she has to show us this time.

*The Clue Shark reappears on the screen behind them.*

Clue Shark: You just said my trigger word there, kitten. ;) 'Cause I found something in the Blob's clue package that REALLY went over the panel's stupid little heads! (shows everyone a veil on top of a Styrofoam dummy head in the Blob's clue package)

Isabelle: A veil?

Fred: Now, how on Earth could this character be connected to the Middle East?

Clue Shark: It's obscure, but it'll come to you eventually. But, here's another clue about MY identity. (pulls out a blowtorch to create blue fire) I guess you can say I'm a real hothead. Okay, later. (fizzles out)

Kitty: Suddenly, my love of seafood is starting to return to me. Anyway, let's bring in our final contestant from Group A. He barely slithered his way out of the Smackdown, but here he is, ready to slug the competition. Please welcome the Snail!

Snail: I'm gonna be honest, when I was in the Smackdown, I thought I was gonna be salted for sure! But, luckily, I was able to slug Heron but good! I always knew I had that fighting spirit in me, thanks to my heritage. When that disease hit my hometown, I thought it was game over for sure. But, one person told me not to give up or to give in. The spirit of my mother. With her guidance, and maybe a little luck, I was able to overcome all the odds, and saved the day for everyone. And, I'm certain that she's still guiding me throughout this competition. So, Mom, if you're up there listening, I'm gonna be singing your praises today. Literally, I might add.
Song: "Saltwater Gospel" by the Eli Young Band: https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=W33b66buCpc

Kitty: (tearing up) That was beautiful, Snail. Who knew you had such a soul?

Isabelle: And, the fact that he did this to honor his mom... (chokes up) OMG, it's so touching.

Fred: I know. Even I'M moved.

Kitty: Well, we're all moved by the Snail's performance. So, let's move on to whatever clue he's got in store for us.

*The Clue Shark reappears once again on the screen behind them.*

Clue Shark: That's my cue! Now, here's a little something about the Snail that I'm sure you might've overlooked! (shows everyone a taxidermized polar bear in the Snail's clue package)

Terry: A polar bear?

Cadence: Could it be Mr. Freeze? He did turn into a polar bear during that Batman/Ninja Turtles crossover.

Clue Shark: Well, I'm gonna let you wrap your brains around that for a bit. In the meantime, I'm gonna look over a couple of bodies, and I don't want them to be dead tired, now. Hee hee hee. Gotta fly! (fizzles out)

Kitty: I swear, the more that guy taunts us, the more I wanna pull out my spear gun. :roll: Anyway, that about does it for Group A, now onto Group B. First up in Group B is the living caravan who's a huge fan of hump day. It's the ship of the desert herself, the Camel!

Camel: I always knew I had what it takes to make it this far, and I'm gonna make sure I don't get eliminated this round! However, one thing I AM surprised about is how much support I've gotten, despite my series'... um... "questionable" content. I mean, if my series was seen here in the United States, I'm positive that tons of people would want it banned immediately. But, if you look past all the things that might turn people away, my friends and I aren't really that bad. We're actually a very fun and very kind group of individuals that are actually very fun to be around. And, maybe once you hear my performance this time, you might get a different idea about me. ^^
Song: "Never Had A Dream Come True" by S Club 7: https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=Z141h5Wucm0

Kitty: Wow, Camel. That was beautiful.

Terry: She REALLY wants us to see her in a different light.

Cadence: Yeah. Maybe there IS more to her.

Kitty: Well, let's find out, shall we? What kind of clue does she have for us?

*The Clue Shark reappears again on the screen behind them.*

Clue Shark: Me again! And, since you've been asking about clues to the Camel, here's something in her clue package that I'm sure you might have missed. (shows everyone a poster of the Ninja from Season 2 of the Masked Toon Singer in the background of the Camel's clue package)

Fred: Hey, that's the Ninja from Season 2!

Isabelle: Maybe she's from the same anime as Polt?

Clue Shark: Oh, and while you're thinking about that, here's something about me that I'm sure you'll find interesting. (pulls out a poster of a Megalodon for him to show everyone) Well, that's it from me for now, but I'll be back! (fizzles out)

Kitty: Grrrrrr. It's like he's TRYING to make it harder for us! But, regardless, let's move on to the next contestant in Group B. Whether he's made with blueberries, peanut butter, or chocolate chips, he's one stack of pure awesomeness! So, let's hear it for the Pancakes!

Pancakes: Wow, I'm shocked! I didn't think I'd actually make it to the next round! But, here I am, ready to perform with five other talented individuals. Ironically, this wasn't the only time I thought I wouldn't get this far in the competitive scene. Back in the tournament I took part in, most guys were usually dropped like flies even before they could move. Heck, some even got hacked even before the round even started. But, I never gave up or gave in. I pressed on, and made it through even the toughest of trials to get where I am today. And, right now, I'm gonna show everyone that I'm no slouch, and I've got what it takes to become the new champ! Also, have you seen someone die by looking at mammary glands? I've seen it happen.
Song: "I Wanna Rock" by Twisted Sister: https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=F4LYes4fH4Y

Kitty: Holy smokes! Looks like the Pancakes is really trying to show that he's a serious contender!

Fred: Yup! Now, I REALLY want some pancakes after the show!

Cadence: You read my mind, Fred!

Fred: I did?!? Well, I knew I was very talented. ^^

Kitty: Well, with that out of the way, let's get down to business. What kind of clue does Pancakes have in store for us?

*The Clue Shark reappears again on the screen behind them.*

Clue Shark: Miss me yet? Well, here's something from the Pancakes' clue package that I'm sure went over your noggins. (shows everyone a big pile of ivory tusks that was featured in the Pancakes' clue package)

Terry: Tusks? Hmmmmm. I think I have an inkling as to who this might be.

Isabelle: Well, I seem to have an idea, too, but I'm not sure.

Clue Shark: And, here's another thing about me that I'm sure will make your brain boggle. (shows everyone a cardboard lightning bolt) My brother has always had an electric personality. Well, I'd better swim on outta here! Later, dudes! (fizzles out)

Kitty: Grrrrr. Unbelievable! Is nothing sacred, anymore? But, there's one more contestant for this round, or rather, three more contestants, I should say. They're a trio of bug-eating plants that certainly have surprised everyone with how well they work together. So, please give a warm welcome to the Venus Flytraps!

Green Flytrap: Yay! We've made it past the Smackdown! Now, we're with the others!

Yellow Flytrap: Ugh....

Red Flytrap: Oh, don't mind my sisters. They're idiots. But, they have a good point. I thought we'd never make it past the Smackdown. But, I think we picked the right song, and we were able to devour the Grasshopper.

Yellow Flytrap: Yeah, she's right. At least we won at something for once, unlike our big failure last time. And, you know what made it worse? Those girls who defeated us were about to teach us that true magic comes from friendship, and not power.

Red Flytrap: After realizing our faults, I would've been able to accept it. But, we ran off the stage so fast, we didn't have time to confront them one last time. Well, I guess we're stuck being downright resentful towards them for what they did to us.

Green Flytrap: Everyone threw garbage at us because we sang so bad. Or, was it trash they threw at us? I could never really tell the difference.

Yellow Flytrap: I could just choke you like the little weed you are right now.

Red Flytrap: But, still, we went into hiding for the next five years, only to show our faces once again at a festival. It was there that I was able to see the beauty in the simple things, and we eventually found the magic to sing again. And, I believed that we should demonstrate it in full right here on this show. Hopefully, it'll be enough to win back people's trust in us, and put us in their good graces.

Green Flytrap: Grace? She moved out of state three weeks ago.

Yellow Flytrap: Why are we a trio again? -_-
Song: "Vacation" by the Go-Gos: https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=-9HNKbjxstk

Kitty: Amazing, Venus Flytraps! You certainly have what it takes to be here!

Terry: (looking at Cadence) Gee, Cadence. You seem deep in thought.

Cadence: I know I've heard their voices somewhere. I'm trying my best to remember.

Kitty: Well, Cadence. Maybe if they had a more definitive clue, it might come to you.

*The Clue Shark appears on the screen behind them one last time.*

Clue Shark: Okay! This is my last one for a while, but it's a good one! Here's a little something that the Green Flytrap is holding in her hand in the clue package. (shows everyone the Green Flytrap pouring a pitcher of fruit punch into a cup in the clue package)

Fred: Fruit punch? Do these three have fruity personalities?

Isabelle: Well, they certainly do look colorful.

Clue Shark: I'm sure that will get your heads scratching. And, here's a little something about ME! (shows everyone the Roman numeral for 1997) This is when I first showed up in everyone's lives. Well, that's it for me! I'll be back when Group C takes on Group D! Smell ya later! (fizzles out)

Kitty: Oh! Why can't that Clue Shark just out of our hair for five seconds?!? But, anyway, that about does it for Group A and Group B. Now, it's up to the viewers at home! Leave a comment below telling us which two from Group A and Group B you think should advance to the Face-Off round. The singer from each group with the least amount of votes will be unmasked, and sent back to their universe. So, happy voting everyone!
