# Sidekick, sidekick What an awesome gig!

# Just like superheroes

# Just like superzeros

# but only half as big Sidekick! #

It's that magical time of year once again, sidekicks.

Welcome to Family Fun Day!

It's our annual celebration of all the Fs we hold dear -

family, fun and fighting to win.

-Right, Maxum Mom?

-You bet, Maxum Son!

Let's show these ninnies what fun is all about.

Ha-ha-ha. And nothing says fun like toss the villain!

-Oof.

-Ah.

-Eek.

-Ha!

-Aaah!

Argh...

Family Day is all about spending quality time together.

Remember - family is forever.

But winning is what really counts.

Argh!

Don't slouch, junior.

CHEERING

Brain, you drive like an old lady.

We're going to be late for Family Fun Day!

Ugh, enough with your front-seat back-seat driving.

Here is your lunch and a sweater.

But it's summer.

Oh, that reminds me...sun block.

Pfft, why are you being so nice to me?

Because I am your sworn guardian and protector.

Plus, I don't want you to have any excuses to be coming home early.

Please be getting out now.

Argh!

Vait!

This permission slip, every student must have a signed permission slip.

Whew, that was close.

Imagine if I had forgotten

and we had to spend the entire day together!

Ha! By signing this,

you two are legally bound to spend the entire day together. Ha-ha-ha!

No-o-o-o-o-o!

We might be stuck with each other, but just be cool, OK?

All my friends and their families are here.

Hello, I am always cool.

-Ugh, you're not listening to me!

-Hey, Vana.

Oh, hi, Eric.

I just don't understand why the events have to be so...competitive.

Because if you don't compete, you can't win.

And I like winning!

If only we could all just...tie. Ah!

Wouldn't that be nice?

Argh...gah!

Ow...

Hi, Eric! This is the boy I've been telling you about.

-KITTY'S FAMILY:

-He's so cute!

Come on, Trevor, do we have to go through this every year?

Yes.

I'm at a school event with my dad.

That's negative fun.

Oh, you'll have a great time with your old dad, you just wait and see.

No...

Velcome to Family Fun Day.

You vill have fun!

Our first event, ze spoon race.

Each team must carry a ball to ze finish line with

a spoon in their mouths.

Ze balls are made of dark matter,

the heaviest material in the universe - deal with it.

Go!

Ugh, come on, Eric. You spoon race like an old lady.

This is hopeless, we'll never get to the finish.

I do wish to get this over with.

Hey, I have a gravitational force programme that should do the trick.

Grr...

Gah!

Great, now we only have five planets left in the solar system

and we're still stuck here.

Quick, son, pass me the ball.

Where'd it go?

I swallowed it, OK?

A spoon gets near my mouth and I swallow. I can't help it!

Not that you care...

Grr.

Argh!

Would you excuse me for a moment, son?

-I'll be right back.

-Sure, whatever.

Argh!

I'm trying, but he makes it so hard.

Sometimes I just want to...

Hug the stuffing out of him!

Look what happened while you were gone!

Grr, eeeh. Gah!

Congratulations, first prize. Here's your ribbon.

I just want to thank everyone for not being as good as me...as usual.

And in the spirit of friendship,

I'd like to share this victory with you all.

Friendship? Argh!

WHISTLE BLASTS

Time for sidekick tag. Everyone, grab your proton cannon.

It's go time.

Remember, being hit by ze cannon will momentarily send players

to another dimension, where intense anguish vill transpire.

Everyone ready...

We surrender. Make peace, not war.

Oh, come on!

You couldn't even wait for the bell?

Eek!

HORN HONKS

SCREAMING

Oh, Eric, check this out.

Cool, your satellite tracking programme will make winning a cinch.

I got this one.

Aaah!

I don't know about this game, Trevor.

-These things seem awfully complicated.

-Man, ugh.

-I always get the broken one.

-Whoa, be careful there, sport.

You don't want to zap your old man, do you? Ha-ha. Ah!

Um... Where'd he go?

So cold, so very cold.

Great, you go to an alien dimension, but did you get me anything?

No! Some dad you are.

I'll be right back.

Ah-ha-ha-ha!

He-he-he-ha-ha-ha.

-Not bad...

-Thanks.

-..for someone of your limited abilities.

-Thanks...

Uh-oh, Kitty's team has cornered us. We are doomed!

Not yet, I've got a plan.

Kitty, I'll go to a movie with you if you let me win.

Done!

I must say, I am suitably impressed by your strategies, Eric.

And you aren't as annoying as usual.

This Family Day may turn out to be fun-ish, after all.

Family Fun Day has been cancelled!

Never again will we be forced to spend time with our families.

Never again will we need to pretend to like each other.

Never again will we be forced to have fun!

Just my luck, we start winning and the day gets ruined by Xox.

Well, I'm not letting this family gathering end like

so many others, with senseless violence.

Wait, what are you doing?

Hold it right there, Xox!

Ha-ha-ha!

You hate Family Fun Day?

Well, I hate it too, but it doesn't have to be a complete loss.

Why destroy us when you could humiliate us, then destroy us?

That makes no sense, but go on.

One event - you win, you get to destroy all these families...

Ah!

..and if I win, you get to not destroy them.

Oh...

Gah! Argh...

Fine, I accept. Anything to end this torture.

Prepare to be decimated.

Ha-ha-ha!

Let's get this over with!

My German potato salad is festering in the sun.

Ze final event is the three-legged race...

of doom!

You vill need a partner.

Oh, oh! Pick me, pick me!

No, anyone but him.

No, no, no!

Trevor, you know if you and Xox win, he's going to destroy us all, right?

Erm, what's your point?

HORN HONKS

-What are you doing?

-I've done the calculations.

With your dangly legs, there is no way for us to beat them.

You don't even have legs!

Whoa!

So, how do you want to destroy everyone? Spoons?

We'll talk about that later.

Just keep your eye on the... Argh!

See you later, cliffhangers!

Eric, forget your almost-witty line and keep your eye on the... Oh!

Ah!

Gah, you weigh a tonne.

Actually, 4.8 tonnes.

Ah, help me! Pull me up!

Forget it, it's every villain for himself.

Whoa.

You know, maybe my dad is nice and kind of treats me really well

and stuff, but I still like him better than you.

Your weakling father might be happy spending quality time with you,

but Xox doesn't lose.

Brain, come on, we have to think of something.

For the families, for Trevor, so we can get this over with.

Uh-oh.

Brain, reboot yourself, or something.

Have a nice trip, ta-ta!

Aaah!

Trevor, no!

Aaah!

He-he-he-ha-ha-ha.

Gah.

You could have done that the whole time?

-Meh, I like to build up the drama.

-Nice one!

OK, let's win this thing.

You bet. What thing?

No-o-o-o-o-o...

I think we learned something valuable, today.

Always read permission slips before signing.

I think we learned something else, too.

I don't know how to say it, so I'll just say it...

Me and you, the two of us...

I know, I know.

..let's never do anything together again.

Agreed. Let us go home and ignore each other forever.
