Oh, y-yeah, sure. Let's see what we can find out.
Suddenly, all the Nopons except Sunny and Cheerio go away.
Sunny
Meh-meh! It Ino-Ino! And with sidekicks, to boot!
Sena

Ino

Ino
Ino cannot believe what Ino hearing!
Noah
Nopon...
Mio

Lanz
OK, I'll bite. What the snuff is a "Nopon Eater"?
Ino
Nopon Eater, as name imply, is super ultimate evil monster that only go after innocent Nopon!
For Ino, is archnemesis among archnemesises! Sworn enemy, joined to Ino by thread of fate!

Sunny
From what Sunny hear in meeting just now, Maktha Wildwood caravan report firsthand sighting of monster in question.
It even sound like maybe some poor Nopon already gobbled up... Meh-meh-meh...
It even sound like maybe some poor Nopon already gobbled up... Meh-meh-meh...
Cheerio
No more scary-talk! Cheerio already afraid to go potty at night!
Ino
Ohhh, this most gravest news indeed! However! If location known, Ino and friends can take matters into own wings!
Masterpon hear how it is! If threat remain unchecked, then Nopon face threat of become endangered species!
Now is time for Ino and friends to shine! For sake of all Noponkind, we must put end to Nopon Eater menace!

Noah
(nodding)
(nodding)
I agree, we can't turn a blind eye to this. Let's do what we can to help.
Cheerio
Oh, that great reassurance! Although, it feel like we twist friends' wings teensy bit. Cheerio have bit of guilt complex...
Ino
What friend say! Is Ino that feeling guilty, for expose everyone to danger!
Ino artificial Blade, specially created to act as Champon of all Noponkind. No need for feather-ruffling!

Noah
All right, where in Maktha Wildwood should we head to first?
Sunny
First friends should visit Engardo Pass caravan and speak to Paroro. Paroro said to be latest eyewitness.
Ino
Ino acknowledge! Ino know friend Paroro from long time ago, when help schlep goods!
Noah
Great. Then let's set a course for Engardo Pass.
Noah
This "Nopon Eater"... What kind of monster is it?
Ino
Rabidly violent and indiscriminate one. Ino seethe with rage just to remember...!
Talk with Sunny again[edit]
Sunny
Paroro of Engardo Pass caravan said to be latest eyewitness of Nopon Eater sighting.
He even fear that Nopon maybe come under attack already... Ohh, woe is meh...

Talk with Cheerio again[edit]
Cheerio
Mehhh...! Attacking Nopon crime of greatest magnitudeness!
And Cheerio at forefront of Nopon floofiness, so likely to be gobbled first! Cheerio terrified by prospect!

Talk with Paroro[edit]
The party arrives to the Engardo Pass.
Ino
Long time no see, friend Paroro!
Paroro
Oh, it been a while, Ino-Ino! Much thankings for help before!!!
Ino
Ino heard news from friend Sunny! But worry not necessary! Ino and friends undertake takedown of Nopon Eater!
Paroro gets excited.
Noah
So tell us, whereabouts was it that you saw the Nopon Eater?
Paroro
Site of sighting was on Urayan Trail!
It attack every Nopon it lay beady eye on! Very unprovoked! Absolute nuisance!!!

Ino
Grrrrrr...! Hearing that make Ino see red!
Tormenting helpless Nopon! Even if Nature ordain it, Ino cannot stand by idling!
Rest assured, friend Paroro! On today of days, Ino and friends serve to beast bitter just desserts!

Paroro
Oh...! Ino-Ino, dedication to cause of Nopon well-being unshakable as always! Truly Ino-Ino hope of all Noponkind!
Noah
Well, now that's decided, we should probably hurry, before it claims any more victims.
Ino
Ino in agreement! Better make dash for it!
Ino
If we not defeat Nopon Eater, there no future for Noponkind!
Noah
Sounds like things are more dire than I thought... I really hope we can do something about this.
Talk with Paroro again[edit]
Paroro
Oh dear! End of world! Aionios will be broke, in tiny slivers of smithereens!!!
Lanz
Hey, don't say that. We're trying to stop that from happening.
Paroro
Truthful...?
Lanz
Yeah, mate. Honest to spark.
Paroro
Paroro trust friend's words much. Will shout very loudly from here!!!
First battle against the Nopon Eater[edit]
The party arrives neaby the Clifftop Ferronis Hulk and see three Nopons crying sorrounded by a big aerial creature.
Ino
There is fiend! Dastardly Nopon Eater!
Ino
That far enough!
The Nopon Eater turns around to face the party.
Ino
Irredeemable Nopon-hating hellion! We meet here for umpteenth year!
But today will mark end of era, as Ino turn you into shish-kabobs! Time to say goodnight!!!
But today will mark end of era, as Ino turn you into shish-kabobs! Time to say goodnight!!!
The Nopon Eater roars as everyone prepares to fight.
The Nopon Eater flees[edit]
Ino
Its movement getting sluggish! It almost out of steam!
Noah
Great! Let's keep up the press-
The Nopon Eater flees at high velocity.
Noah
What-?!
Ino
Wha-whawhawha-whaaaat?!
Taion
Tch... It must've felt its odds diminishing and decided to flee.
Ino
Fiend! COWARD! Come back and face Ino!!!
Ino
Aughhh! Masterponnn! There not SOMETHING we can do?!
Noah
I wish there was, I really do, but now that it's taken to the skies, there's not much recourse...
Ino
Uwaaaghhh...!
...Oh!
Ino have brainwave!
...Oh!
Ino have brainwave!
Ino looks at Eunie.
Ino
How about we get friend Eunie to fly up and take Ino and friends with to pursue...!
Eunie
Yeah, sorry, that's not gonna happen. Cool it, love, before you blow a gasket or something.
Sena
I hate to say it, but I don't think there's anything we can do at this point...
Ino
(one step from crying)
(one step from crying)
Ugh... What humiliation... Just as Ino was one stepping stone from victory...
Why Ino such useless, good-for-nothing Blade...? If Ino could find hole, would gladly bury self in...

Lanz
Hey, c'mon, it's not your fault. Don't beat yourself up so much, yeah?
Noah
I get how you feel, Ino, really, but it's too soon to give up completely, don't you think?
Ino
...Ah! Yes! Masterpon have right of it.
Most important, everypon still alive, safe and sound.
Now Ino and friends must take responsibility. Should go and deliver everypon to caravan, along with news!

The three rescued Nopon look happy.
Noah
Sorry. We can deal with the Nopon Eater later.
Ino
Yes, Masterpon... Mehh... Feeling of dejection...
Sunny's plan[edit]
The party returns to the Engardo Pass Camp with the Nopon, who as soon as they see Paroro, they run towards him
Sunny
(off-screen)
(off-screen)
Ino-Inooooo!
Sunny approaches running from nowhere to the party.
Ino
Friend Sunny? What friend doing here?
Sunny
This unworthy Sunny have come to help Ino-Ino!
If Nopon of Caravan continue to always rely on Ino-Ino for everything, could not look at self in mirror without wincing!
Now is time to make show of manly virtue! Will repay debt of honor with bargain sale of century!

Sunny

Ino

Sunny
Oh no! It escape?! Sunny incensed! Such cowardly, lily-livered featherbrain!
Noah

(no clue either, Noah...)

Ino
Ino never feel so humiliated... Ino total failure as Champon...
Noah
(huffing)
(huffing)
...
Mio
Well look, all we can do right now is focus on finding the Nopon Eater again.
Taion
Easier said than done, considering we don't have any viable way of tracking it.
Eunie
What, so we've gotta run around hoping we'll bump into it at random? I don't love that idea...
Ino
(groaning)
(groaning)
...
Lanz
Well, snuff it... If only it hadn't run away, we could've been done with it by now.
Sunny
Hm...
Meh-meh! Sunny got it!
What friends saying is, have to make sure it not run away again, right?

What friends saying is, have to make sure it not run away again, right?
Noah
Well, yeah... If we could've stopped it, even for a moment, we would've had victory in the bag.
Sunny
Understood! Then now is time to roll out pollen orbs!
Ino
Pollen orbs? Favorite treat of Nopon of all ages?
Sunny
Ino-Ino, there great many kind of pollen orb. Some delicious, as friend know, while on other wing...
...other, forbidden, pollen orb also exist that teensy-weensy bit dangerous...
...other, forbidden, pollen orb also exist that teensy-weensy bit dangerous...
Ino
Ino cannot believe own ears... Ino never knew about this.
Sunny
They only feature in extremely under-counter lineup, so of course we not talk about in front of Ino-Ino.
Lanz
OK, so you think that dangerous kind of pollen orb would work on the Nopon Eater?
Sunny
Certainly should! However, just to be super-extra-sure...
Sunny will concoct super-extra-strong batch of forbidden pollen orb!
If friends give Nopon Eater good taste of, monster will get mamapon of all dizzy spells and won't even think of fly away!

Taion
So you're proposing to use the pollen orbs to render the Nopon Eater unconscious?
Ino
That terrific idea! If friends can do that, then battle is good as won!
Eunie
Slow down there, champ. Surely we still need to find this thing again, first?
Sunny
Heheheh. Can leave that part to Sunny also. As matter of fact, Sunny have some useful connections that come in useful.
Ino
Unbelievable! Friend Sunny on fire today!
Noah
Seems like things are turning out in our favor. We might still come out on top here.
Ino
Most certainsome! Ino like how this going!
Sunny
Well then, if friends all set on plan, Sunny will begin work on manufacture of pollen orbs.
Ino
Friend Sunny, what can Ino and friends do for help?
Sunny
Ino-Ino and friends must gather flowers that yield pollen for orb.
From best quality flowers, can create such potent stuff, Sunny sometimes tempted to dip into own stash... But friends did not hear that.
In any case, please to bring flowers. More equal better!

Ino
Roger-wilco-pon! We make tracks and come back on double!
Ino
Cannot have pollen orbs without Nopon! And cannot have Nopon without pollen orbs!
Taion
Each codependent upon the other... A fascinating relationship.
Giving flowers to Sunny[edit]
Sunny
Sunny been waiting for Ino-Ino!
Not filling the quota and leaving:
Sunny
Please to come again after gathering of more flowers!
Filling the quota will proceed into a cutscene.
Overwhelmingly Potent Pollen Orbs[edit]
Sunny
Good effort on part of friends! That more than enough.
Now then, time for Sunny to get cooking. Please to stay put a little while.

Oh goodness, all friends here already?
Cheerio approaches running from nowhere to the party.
Ino
Friend Cheerio? Did friend need something from friend Sunny?
Cheerio
Dearie cheery... Friends not heard anything from Sunny?
Cheerio hear that Ino-Ino had some trouble, so was busy looking into hiding place of Nopon Eater.

Taion
...You didn't. Did you?
Cheerio
Oh, sweet little boy, of course Cheerio did. That why Cheerio came here, to tell friends!
Noah
That's incredible! How in the world did you manage that?
Cheerio
Ohohoho! Friends should learn not to underestimate Nopon Caravan watercooler whispernetwork!
When Cheerio put out call, can obtain all kind of informations, up to and including number of freckles on friends' noses.

Sunny
Sorry to keep friends waiting! New and improved formula come together Sunny-ly!
Lanz
So the pollen orbs are ready?
Sunny
Please to show more respect. They not just any old pollen orbs.
Sunny call them...
Sunny call them...
Sunny
Sunny own-brand! "OP Pollen Orbs", trademark pending! Incidentally, OP stand for "Overwhelmingly Potent".
Sunny shows a purple circle.
Noah
Uggh...!
Mio
Ugh...
Lanz
Dude, that stinks!
Ino
Huh? What is matter? What friend say stink?
Sunny
Hmm... It seem that perhaps for non-Nopon, pungency little bit above tolerable baseline.
Taion
You're calling this "a little" above baseline?!
Cheerio
Now then, Ino-Ino, please to take possession of product!
Sunny
These OP Pollen Orbs have much riding on! They represent hope of all Noponkind!
He hands over the OP Pollen Orb to Ino.
Ino
...Ino feeling massively thankful! Hope of all Noponkind weighing heavy on conscience of Ino!
Right then, Masterpon! Catch!!!
Right then, Masterpon! Catch!!!
Noah
...Huh?!
Ino
Thing that most important to Ino, Ino bequeath to Driver. Please to take!
Noah
Uh, I'm sorry, but... I don't think I can carry that for you...
Eunie
(holding her nose)
(holding her nose)
(with wad of tissue stuck up nose) C'mon Noah, look how she's begging! How can you say no to those eyes?
Taion
(holding his nose)
(holding his nose)
(with wad of tissue stuck up nose) Yes, Noah, you're the Driver here, or what-have-you. Take responsibility and keep a lid on it!
Sena
Yeah, Noah! Do it for her! And whatever you do, please put those stinkables away!
Noah
Oh, boy...
Riku
Noah, must steel resolve. Fate of all Nopon rest on shoulders of Noah and Ino, none other.
Manana dances as if she agrees with Riku. Riku looks at Noah with a "I'm like a teacher for you." look and Noah answers with a "Why do I have to do this?" look, followed by a "There's no other option..." nod.
Noah
...Oh all right, you all win. I'll take the OP Pollen Orbs.
...Or rather, the "hope of all Noponkind"!
...Or rather, the "hope of all Noponkind"!
Ino
Those the exact words Ino been waiting for, o Masterpon of mine!
Cheerio
According to scuttlebutt, Nopon Eater ran away to Anu Shoals in Erythia Sea. Now is only chance!
Ino
Anu Shoals...! Fitting site for final showdown!
Come, Masterpon! We heed the call! We go!
Come, Masterpon! We heed the call! We go!
Noah
Yeah, let's do it!
...And let's be quick about it.
...And let's be quick about it.
Noah turns around to face the party, they are far away.
Noah
(screaming)
(screaming)
...How long are you going to keep that up? You'll get left behind, you know!
Lanz
Eugh, the stink's wafting up again. You sure we can't ditch the pollen orb idea?
Ino
Not "pollen orbs"! "*OP* Pollen Orbs", trademark pending!
Talk with Sunny again 2[edit]
Sunny
Please to give Nopon Eater good taste of Sunny own-brand OP Pollen Orbs!
...Meh? Friends want to know how to make OP Pollen Orbs for selves?
...Meh-heh. Is trade secret.

Drivers and Blades[edit]
The Nopon Eater starts shaking his wings like he did the last time.
Taion
It's off again!
Ino
Masterpon!
Noah nods to her and throws the OP Pollen Orb to the Nopon Eater.
Noah
See how you like this!
The OP Pollen Orb strikes right on the Nopon Eater's face.
Noah
Yes! Right on target!
Consequently, he roars loudly.
Sena
Uh... Uh-oh...
Lanz
Tch...
Well it ain't running now. But it looks royally pissed off.

Noah
Well, that's that taken care of.
Ino
Good job, Masterpon! Time for well-deserved restings!
Lanz
Noah and Ino really took the spotlight on the home stretch there, huh?
Eunie
Yeah, come to think of it, wasn't that last attack they did together kinda ridiculous? ...And awesome?
Taion
You're certainly not wrong. And was it just me, or did they both seem to...glow?
Noah
Did we really? I have to say I wasn't really paying attention. My mind was somewhere else entirely...
Ino
That move best and truest manifestation of affinity between Ino and Masterpon!
Driver and Blade one in body and soul! When put together power of both, resulting power limitless!
...Quoth Grandmasterpon, meh!

Limitless power, huh...? If that truly were within our reach...
Maybe we can save Nopon, and humans... Or indeed, the whole world.
