The Emperor looked gravely through his telescope. "Cahagga Taru and Groovy Chokey, defeat those eight scoundrels outside my Darkness Castle!" he yelled. The two muscly guards went outside and head locked all of the eight members of the Intergalactic Space Rangers who were trying to infiltrate the Darkness Castle. Cahagga Taru grunted and slammed Croissant and Johnny together and threw them into the bushes. Groovy Chokey picked up Professor Tice, Professor Byte and Chicken like toothpicks and threw them into the same, thick bushes. "Aargh!" yelled Professor Crafty as the huge Groovy Chokey picked him up and threw him into the same bush where everyone else was. Ben and Pancake screamed for help when they were captured by Cahagga Taru and thrown into the bush. The eight members could only watch as they were thrown into a truck and locked in. "Rrrr! We'll have Guru Chelmer Hittlerr deal with those ugly brutes," sneered the fat Cahagga Taru. "Hey, what's that crate?" whispered the semi-conscious Chicken. Johnny crawled to the crate and picked up 10 well-sown shirts with flowing energy. "Aha! It is Holowear, a type of holographic clothing! It can change to any costume we want!" said Johnny excitedly. "And what's that weird noise I hear?" asked the bruised Croissant. Johnny perked his ears up. "Fascinating! Well, that's hard to explain... it probably is a creature. The Darkness Castle is in the well-known Universe called Spearxos which is home to many creatures like the popbat (a wombat but cuter), a sheararoo (a kangaroo but with 3 eyes and a tail that is like a spear), a teacock (a peacock but it's feathers produce tea) and many, many others," said Johnny as he hit the the Creature Sound Detector. "Of course! I should've known! It was an orantle! A terrapin, which is a type of turtle, that has orange stripes and feet that can mysteriously transform to fit through a gap!" Johnny exclaimed as he saw the Creature Sound Detector saying it was a orantle. "It sounded like an orangutan," said Chicken on purpose. "Ahhh...yes! People use orantles for picking locks! We are locked in a truck so it can help us out!" said Professor Byte, adjusting his glasses. Croissant ran towards the sound and picked up the orantle. "It's a baby!" he said. The orantle stared at Croissant in awe. Croissant picked the lock and everyone ran out. The orantle rushed to Croissant and jumped up to its shoulder. "That's a sign it wants to be your pet!" said Professor Crafty. "Yay! I officially have an orantle pet!" said Croissant happily. They ran into the Darkness Castle and hid as Tea Bee slowly walked past. "We need a disguise!" whispered Pancake. Professor Tice smiled, "That's why I brought the Holowear with us!" They each put on a separate Holowear. Ben became the Grim Reaper. Chicken became a ghost. Professor Crafty, Professor Tice and Professor Byte all became a man with a pumpkin head. Pancake became a bat. Johnny looked so realistic as a zombie! Croissant and Flash (Croissant's pet Orantle's name) looked flashy in a skeleton costume. This seemed to be a Halloween Theme!
