Barbie Video Game Hero Page #5

Here's the plan.

[ALL WHISPERING INDISTINCTLY]

KRIS:
What? Ah.

Everyone in?

- KRIS:
Aye.

- BELLA:
Yup.

- GAIA:
I'm in.

- MAIA:
Uh-huh.

- CRYSTAL:
Yes.

- Let's win this.

[GRUMBLING]

BELLA:
Hey, virus breath.

Over here.

Ha, ha.

Ha! That's all you've got?

Come on, you giant, uh, circle.

Virus, come out and play.

- Look, it's our signal.

- Woo-hoo!

[ALL SCREAMING]

Hey, you oversized raspberry.

[SHRIEKS]

Yoo-hoo.

Right where I want them.

Got one.

Hey, there are portals in this tree.

BELLA:
Yoo-hoo.

Nice one, Barbie.

Thanks for the distraction.

- Is it working?

- Yeah, slowly.

Ah! Whoa.

Huh? Whoa!

Wait a second. That's it.

The portals.

Hey, Barbie, how are we

gonna stop it one at a time?

We need to blast it

from all sides at once.

But we only have one blaster.

I know. But we have a lot of doors.

I'm going to blast it

with everything I've got.

Clear the area and keep yourself safe.

We're not leaving you. We're a team.

I know we are. And I won't let you down.

I'm only going to get one shot at this.

[SHRIEKS]

Your plan is good, but you must delay.

It seems that Crystal is still in the way.

- CRYSTAL:
Aah!

- BARBIE:
Oh, no. Crystal.

- You need to move away from the door.

- I can't.

I can't move.

Come on, you can do this.

Crystal, we don't have much time.

Please, hurry, Crystal. Jump if you can,

Cutie will catch you,

and we'll finish our plan.

You're right.

I can do this.

Ha, ha! Woo-hoo!

[EMOJIS LAUGHING]

- We did it!

- Woo-hoo!

Let's get out of here.

Hmm. Ah.

[LAUGHS]

Wee!

[ALL LAUGH]

- CRYSTAL:
Yay!

- BELLA:
That was awesome!

KRIS:
Did you see that?

Now that was fun.

You guys were amazing.

I guess we do make a pretty good team.

[ALL LAUGHING]

[RUMBLING]

- Whoa.

- Uh, did someone turn up the bass?

Not again.

Come on. Follow me.

We have to stick together.

We need to come up with a plan

to beat this level.

[GRUNTING]

[ROARS]

[ALL SCREAM]

[GASPS]

This time we're stuck, there is no doubt.

Oh, I don't know what to do.

There is no way out.

Barbie, what do we do now?

There's gotta be another way.

I'm not having fun right now, guys.

Just letting you know.

My sister, Chelsea, asked me

why there's only one way to do things.

I didn't have an answer.

But when I came here,

you all helped me learn something.

- We did?

- BARBIE:
Yes.

We don't have to do

what we're programmed to do.

I can change the game.

But you've been

changing the game all along.

You made the antivirus.

And went back to the bonus round.

BOTH:
And you beat us.

And you fed my squirrels

when they went nuts.

You're right. Now it's time

to change the game to fit me.

But I'm going to need a little more code.

- Uh, Barbie?

- What?

I kind of have some code left.

I didn't think it would make

any difference against the virus...

...and I wanted a trophy of my own.

I'm sorry.

- Bella.

- Huh?

You're brilliant.

[GRUNTING AND GRUMBLING]

We're done running.

It's time to change this game

and have some fun.

[GROWLS]

Welcome to the Final Level.

Barbie, what are you doing?

Don't worry. I got this.

What kind of game is this?

The in-game tutorial is who you need.

I'll tell you the rules before you proceed.

In this corner stands the Emoji Virus.

He's big, and he's purple,

and he wants to destroy us.

ALL:
Boo!

But over in this corner,

look and you'll see...

...she's courageous and fearless,

it's our friend Barbie.

[ALL CHEERING]

And follow the pictograms

is what you must do.

It's a "Just Dance" dance battle,

which is well-known to you.

Keep an eye on the score bar

to see who's ahead.

The leader has the crown,

and now it's all said.

This thing can't dance.

GAME NARRATOR:

The big boss has entered the level.

[GROWLS]

Oh, no, it can dance.

CUTIE:
A backup dancer boosts your score.

Only thing better is having some more.

Huh?

[UPBEAT DANCE MUSIC PLAYING]

[DOGS BARKING]

I can't bend my elbows or knees.

[ALL GASP]

[CHUCKLES]

Cutie, I need your help.

Barbie, I hate to digress,

but last time I coded, I made quite a mess.

I know you can do it, Cutie.

Hurry, Cutie.

Cutie knows just what to do.

Once again, to the rescue.

Yes, I got my elbows back.

Huh?

He's blocking the pictogram.

- Let's help Barbie.

- I'm on it.

Coming in hot.

It's working.

But it's not enough.

[CHUCKLES]

What we need is a boost.

Surely you jest.

From little to big works the best.

[ALL LAUGHING]

Yeah!

We're catching up.

[CHUCKLES]

You guys, I can't get ahead.

Barbie, we might not make it.

Then I'm gonna do it my way.

Huh?

Ha, ha!

- GAME NARRATOR:
Winner, Barbie.

- Woo-hoo!

Uh-oh.

[ALL CHEERING]

- KRIS:
Yeah! All right!

- GAIA:
Yeah! Woo-hoo!

Oh, jubilation.

[LAUGHS]

Oh, the virus is gone,

and we are saved, you see.

Thanks to the imagination

of a girl named Barbie.

You did it! Ha, ha!

We did it.

Oh. Gaia, can I keep them?

- We'll talk about it later.

- I can't wait to show you...

...all the cool stuff in our level.

BOTH:
Ours too.

Oh, and mine.

That sounds great, everyone, but...

You have to go back.

I do kind of have a life

on the other side of the screen.

- But I'll miss you.

- CRYSTAL:
Ah.

Me too.

You'll come back, right?

I'm just a few taps of the screen away.

There's a screen?

Uh, I'll explain it when we're back home.

Thanks for helping me

be less scared, Barbie.

It's okay to be scared.

You just can't let it stop you.

So if I'm scared of you leaving,

does that mean you'll stay?

[LAUGHING]

BARBIE:
Aw.

You know, you're the first real friend

I've ever had.

Hello? I'm right here.

Oh, you know what I mean.

We spend so much of our time

trying to win our level that sometimes...

We miss out on who we're playing with.

Well, now you can try

a whole new way to play.

So, Cutie, I guess this is goodbye.

Heh. I'm not very good with goodbyes.

Thank you, Barbie, for all that you do.

I'm sorry for creating the virus...

...but not sad I met you.

ALL:
Aw.

Okay, now it's time to go.

Wait.

There is one last thing.

- There is?

- Kris is right.

Oh. Barbie needs to get her trophy.

Oh?

Wow.

Huh?

I think this is my ride.

- Bye, Barbie.

- Later.

- I'll miss you.

- Bye-bye.

See you.

Don't think of it as goodbye.

- Think of it as "good game."

- Ha, ha.

Come on. Ha, ha.

ALL:
Good game.

Whoa.

Teresa, Renee, you there?

Hey, Barbie, what's up?

Did you miss us or something?

It's only been 10 minutes.

I did. Heh.

Sometimes 10 minutes

can feel like forever.

I figured out what wasn't working.

Did you find the answer

in that code book of yours?

BARBIE:
Let's just say, sometimes you

need a little change in perspective.

Here it goes.

You guys ready to help me

beat this level now?

- Sure thing.

- Game on.

GAME NARRATOR:
Welcome to Cupcake Caverns.

TERESA:
I love that we're llamas.

Remember, we need to get over the mixer

and past the sugar flies.

So far, so good.

BARBIE:

Over Sprinkle Falls, and we're done.

RENEE:
Well, we've heard that before.
