Story
Part 16-1: Return to Rareworld
At Terrydactyland, News Guy was doing a special on the SWDF, where there were rumors that they had shot someone there. After interviewing Dippy for a bit, he showed that bullets had been found at the supposed site, but didn't say anything definite. Meanwhile, The Raptor, Ripvor had a flashback to Grodus Rising, when the conscripts freed him from the Gadd Instillation. He had hoped that things were all right and that the SWDF hadn't kidnapped his brother and sister, Torvin and Caldia.
When he arrived at Rareworld, he went to Terrydactyland and began looking for his siblings, but couldn't find them anywhere, even at their hideout. He then remembered there was a fortune teller at Jolly Roger's Lagoon that he might be able to get help from, so he rushed off to there. After arriving, he ran past Dr. Scurf, who was bringing some groceries back home. After Ripvor went by, Dr. Scurf recognized him and went to get Shnalk.
Part 16-2: The Raptor Trio
Ripvor was just about to enter the fortune teller's place when he heard Dr. Scurf say his name, and Ripvor grabbed him, asking him how he knew his name. Shnalk asked Ripvor if he could put Dr. Scurf down, and Dr. Scurf explained they had done some investigation for a television show about the disappearance of The Raptor Trio. Ripvor muttered the SWDF, and they went back to Shnalk's place for an explanation.
The Raptor Trio was explained, including the members: Ripvor, the leader, Torvin, the strongest, and Caldia, the strategist. A few months ago, however, they disappeared. Shnalk explained to Ripvor that some eyewitnesses said they saw Torvin and Caldia killed while Ripvor had only been injured. Ripvor immediately ran, leaving Shnalk and Dr. Scurf behind. There was a flashback, where it was shown that an SWDF soldier was about to shoot Caldia, who was eating the remains of a stegosaurus, when Ripvor attacked the soldier.
The Raptor Trio and the soldiers began a stand-off until a shot was heard and they started fighting, ending in Caldia and Torvin being killed and Ripvor being injured. They took the bodies and attempted to hide them to avoid anyone finding out about the mistake. Back in the present, Ripvor was returning to The Ratpor when he saw Chimeck in front of it. She told him his plan of revenge would fail, and Ripvor told her to leave, so she simply did.
Part 16-3: This Part Has the Tavern Scene. Oh, and a New Character!
After a day of thinking, Ripvor decided to go to Tanker's Tavern, the former site of Clanker's Cavern, to look for anyone that may help him. Mostly, however, he saw drunken morons. He took a seat, and then was spoken to by an odd centipede-like creature near him, Accordiono. Accordiono explained that every night he went there, drank up, then waited for a tavern fight to ensue so he could escape without paying. Sometimes, however, he needed some help starting up a brawl, so Ripvor went and started one for him.
The two escaped the tavern, then soon after Razabi came out to applaud Ripvor's ability to cause destruction. After introducing himself, Ripvor learned of Razabi's hate for the SWDF, and they joined forces. Razabi tossed a fire bomb into the tavern, and with Accordiono's nights now freed up, he decided to follow along too after introducing himself.
Part 16-4: Don’t They Put Bathrooms In Those Ships?
Ripvor and Razabi began planning their plan, while Accordiono explored the ship, looking for something. Ripvor said he would enter the castle through the underwater entrance while Razabi created a diversion by attacking the front of the castle. This would make it easier for Ripvor to get through the castle. Just then, Accordiono spoke up, and asked them if they realized there was no bathroom on the ship. With that, they had to quickly stop at the nearest planet, Pokeworld.
They landed near Lavender Town, and told Accordiono to hurry up. After he went to a Pokemart bathroom, he came out and saw a ghost! Actually I.M. Ugly. They began to speak, and though Accordiono didn't get why I.M. Ugly thought she was so ugly, he agreed to teach her illusions so she could make herself look beautiful, hoping Ripvor wouldn't mind. At first, he did, but then agreed to let her come if she told no one what they were doing, not that she had much of a clue at that point. They then left the planet and continued en route to Star World.
Part 16-5: The Conscripts (1/3)
As The Raptor neared Star World, they prepared to enter stealth mode when another nearby ship had been spotted: The Sylloderriga Jet MK VI. Ripvor recognized that as being Eli's ship from Grodus Rising, and the two contacted one another. After speaking for a bit, Eli came on board the Raptor, as like Accordiono said, electronic conversations were quite aloof.
After introductions, Eli explained he was here looking for The Yoshi Bodyguards, but had found out they had disbanded due to the SWDF. Ripvor said the SWDF was his reason for being here; he wanted revenge for the SWDF killing his siblings, though he hadn't told any of the others that so far (they hadn't asked). They then went to Star World, landing in Stardust Fields, the abandoned military base. After that was a commercial for Top's Pizza.
