[Scene 1 – The Reopened Arcade]

  The episode opens with the brawlers arriving in Justice Town after their travels, excited about a new addition to the town: the arcade that has just reopened. The brawlers are eager to check it out, with Kouchu leading the way.

  Kouchu (excitedly):

  “Look! The arcade’s open again! I’ve been waiting to try out their newest game!”

  Sakuro (hesitant):

  “I don’t know, Kouchu. Something about this place feels… off.”

  Shauna (skeptical):

  “Yeah, I don’t think we should mess with anything. The last time we played a game, we ended up in a weird situation.”

  The brawlers walk in, and the lights from the arcade machines flicker brightly. One game, in particular, catches Kouchu’s eye: Broken Hazard (壊れた危険 Kowareta kiken). The game’s screen is cracked, and the graphics are glitchy, but Kouchu is intrigued.

  Kouchu (grinning):

  “This is it! The Broken Hazard game! Let’s give it a try!”

  Just as Kouchu gets ready to insert coins into the machine, an unseen person (a mysterious figure dressed in a cloak) steps up behind him, whispering a warning.

  Mysterious Figure (in a low voice):

  “Don’t play that game. It’s cursed.”

  Kouchu ignores the warning, thinking it’s just part of the arcade’s charm, and begins to play the game anyway. Shauna and Sakuro exchange worried looks but reluctantly follow Kouchu’s lead.

  ?

  [Scene 2 – Trapped Inside the Game]

  As soon as the brawlers press the start button on the Broken Hazard arcade machine, the screen flashes bright blue, and the brawlers are sucked into the game itself. They find themselves standing in a digital world, surrounded by the game’s environment, with glowing, pixelated walls and platforms.

  Shauna (panicked):

  “Kouchu! What happened?! Where are we?!”

  Sakuro (looking around):

  “We’re in the game! We’ve been transported inside!”

  Kouchu (shocked but excited):

  “This is incredible! It’s like we’re inside the game world! But… how do we get out?”

  The brawlers quickly realize they are no longer in control of their bodies—Roaracryst and the other Crystal Monsters have become playable characters within the game.

  This book's true home is on another platform. Check it out there for the real experience.

  Roaracryst (looking at his digital form):

  “This is… strange! We’re part of the game now?”

  Suddenly, a group of Sludgerers (スラツジャー Surajjā)—the game’s antagonists—appear and begin attacking the Crystal Monsters, who are now in battle mode. The Sludgerers, monstrous and gooey, move quickly, and the brawlers have to defend themselves using the powers of their Crystal Monsters.

  Kouchu (realizing):

  “Roaracryst! You’re the only one who can fight! Go after them!”

  Roaracryst (determined):

  “Got it!”

  Roaracryst charges into battle, but the Sludgerers prove to be powerful, and he’s forced into a difficult position. With each attack, the Sludgerers grow stronger.

  ?

  [Scene 3 – The Glitch and the Transformation]

  During the intense battle, Roaracryst accidentally activates a blue orb floating in the middle of the digital arena. The orb glows brightly, and Roaracryst is consumed by its energy. His form begins to glitch and then transform into a more powerful version of himself.

  Kouchu (staring in awe):

  “What’s happening?! Roaracryst… what’s going on?!”

  Roaracryst’s body morphs, and he gains a new, more muscular, fiery form with enhanced abilities. His once-lively blue crystals turn to a glowing golden color, signifying his newfound power.

  Roaracryst (voice echoing):

  “I… feel stronger… This is… Super Roaracryst!”

  Now transformed into Super Roaracryst (スーパーキクモン Sūpā Kikumon), he takes on the Sludgerers with newfound strength and speed. He unleashes devastating energy blasts, cutting through the enemies one by one. His powers seem to be limitless as he charges toward the giant Sludgerer, the most formidable opponent.

  ?

  [Scene 4 – The Final Battle]

  The giant Sludgerer charges toward Roaracryst, its massive size making it difficult to defeat. Roaracryst dodges its attacks and retaliates with his powerful new moves.

  Roaracryst (confidently):

  “This ends now!”

  With a massive roar, Super Roaracryst summons a devastating energy wave that tears through the giant Sludgerer, defeating it in one blow. The Sludgerers, now defeated, disappear in a flash of digital code.

  Shauna (cheering):

  “Yay! You did it, Roaracryst!”

  Sakuro (grinning):

  “Super Roaracryst is unstoppable!”

  ?

  [Scene 5 – Escape From the Game]

  With the Sludgerers defeated and the game now quiet, the brawlers look around, realizing they need to find a way out.

  Kouchu (thinking hard):

  “We’ve got to find a way back to the real world!”

  Roaracryst, in his new form, approaches the center of the game where a glowing portal appears. The portal is their ticket out of the digital world.

  Kouchu (rushing toward the portal):

  “Quick, everyone! Let’s go!”

  The brawlers and their Crystal Monsters jump into the portal together, and the screen flashes once again, sending them back to reality.

  ?

  [Scene 6 – Back in the Arcade]

  The brawlers are back in the arcade, standing in front of the Broken Hazard game machine. The game seems to have shut down, and the screen flickers one last time before turning black.

  Shauna (exhausted):

  “Phew… that was way too close.”

  Sakuro (laughing nervously):

  “That was insane! But… I don’t think I’ll be playing any more video games for a while.”

  Kouchu (grinning, still awestruck):

  “That was amazing! Did you see Roaracryst? He’s a whole new level of power now!”

  Roaracryst (smiling):

  “I feel… different. Stronger. But I don’t think I’ll be going back into that game again anytime soon.”

  Just then, the mysterious figure who warned Kouchu earlier appears again. He gives them a knowing look.

  Mysterious Figure (with a smirk):

  “You’ve had your fun… but remember—games like that never truly end.”

  The figure vanishes, leaving the brawlers confused.

  Kouchu (curious):

  “Who was that guy? Do you think he was part of the game too?”

  Shauna (shaking her head):

  “I don’t know… but I’m just glad we’re out of there.”

  ?

  [Ending Scene]

  The brawlers walk away from the arcade, laughing and joking about their wild adventure. Kouchu, still thinking about Super Roaracryst, looks at his partner with admiration.

  Kouchu (smiling):

  “Thanks, Roaracryst. You really came through for us.”

  Roaracryst (grinning):

  “Anytime, Kouchu. Now, let’s see what’s next on our adventure!”

  The screen fades to black as the brawlers continue their journey toward Clevergreen City, ready for whatever challenges await them next.
