A Corona Virus

The 6th episode of A Loud Genderswap!

Transcript:
On a quiet March day, the Millers were all at home.

Sarge: With the Coronavirus spreading, none of us can leave this house!

Dani: But Angel and I were going to travel the world curing people of this virus!

Sarge and Torri looked confused.

Dani rolled her eyes.

Dani: Don't ask…

Torri: Well no one's going anywhere!

Grace: Okay, I know Derby's got the virus, but I need to give him this!

Grace held up an antidote.

Dani face palmed.

Sarge: That's way too risky!

Torri: Yeah! We don't want you to get infected!

Izzy: But can I at least go over to Cady's to comfort her over her mother not coming over this weekend when she promised to?!

Emery: Or go to the library?

Henrietta: Well, I can at least do some math - right?

Brian: Surely I can still do my art.

Robin: But what about Riley coming over to prepare dinner?! We were planning on making fried calamari sandwiches for all of us!

Sarge: Kids, kids, PLEASE! Just entertain yourselves within the house!

The Miller siblings looked disappointed and headed to their rooms.

~ ~ ~

In Dani, Grace, Robin, and Henrietta’s room, Dani and Grace were fixing up their time travel watches.

Dani: Don’t tell mom and dad, but we need to go to Corona to deliver a little message to Varia and Cassandro.

Henrietta: Funny it’s called Corona…

Dani rolled her eyes.

Dani: Yes, our ancestor’s home-kingdom is called Corona like the Coronavirus…

Grace looked shocked.

Grace: Oh my gosh - you know what that means?!

Robin: That I can’t live one more day without Riley’s company?! It’s been weeks since everyone’s been panicking about this virus!

Grace: Actually I think I know what caused the virus - and where!

Dani: Don’t be ridiculous. The virus originated in China. Not Corona.

Grace: I know, but just follow me!

Grace turned on the time travel wrist-watch, and a wormhole showed up.

Dani turned to Robin and Henrietta.

Dani: Stay here and cover for us, okay.

Robin: Okay, okay. I’ll just stay here and call Riley.

Henrietta: Surely mom and dad could use some help with their bills…

Dani: Glad you understand. Let’s go, Grace!

Dani and Grace hopped into the wormhole.

It instantly closed while Robin turned to Henrietta.

Robin: I sure hope those two know not to bring that virus to the kingdom of Corona!

Henrietta: I bet they’ll be fine.

Robin sighed.

Robin: I hope so.

~ ~ ~

Dani and Grace landed in 1500 to see most of Corona deserted.

Dani: That’s strange…

Grace: I know! What happened to everyone?

Just then, Varia went up to them.

Varia: Well, looks like Raphael and Cassandro finally defeated Zane Tiri… But now Cassandro left to follow his own destiny. I hope he’ll be okay.

Dani: We have some news to break to… All of Corona.

Grace: There’s a virus in the future that bears the same name as the kingdom!

Varia chuckled.

Varia: There’s a virus that has the same name as Corona?!

Dani: I know. Trippy, isn’t it?

Varia: Well, surely Cassandro isn’t far. Yeah, he wrote to me and said he misses Raphael, and all of Corona, and he wants to come back to be with us all again.

Grace: That’s great!

Varia: It is...but I’ve been thinking about him and… I love him. I wish to spend the rest of my life with him. Be there for him. Protect him.

Grace: I say, go for it!

Dani: Yes. You’ve been a good couple from what I can see.

Varia: Then the second he steps foot in Corona, I shall propose!

~ ~ ~

Meanwhile, in the woods of Corona, Cassandro was riding Fidello the horse through the trails.

Cassandro: I hope I really find my true destiny…

Cassandro sighed.

Cassandro: But I miss home. I will return. And attend Raphael’s wedding! I hope it will still go on.

Cassandro could hear thunder booming in the background.

Cassandro: That’s strange…

Cassandro got off the horse and looked around.

He found big footprints on the ground that looked much like Zane Tiri’s demon form’s prints.

Cassandro: How’d these appear?

A familiar shadow appeared.

Cassandro turned around.

Cassandro: Who’s there?!

Cassandro could hear some evil laughter.

He turned around, to see Zane Tiri in his usual ghost-guy form beside him.

Cassandro: Ugghhh! Zane Tiri!? What are YOU doing here? I-I-I thought Raphael and I wiped you out of existence!

Zane Tiri: Don’t be ridiculous, Cassandro. Like you could really kill ME. No, all that happened is you and your pathetic prince friend blasted me far away. Like in a completely different country.

Cassandro: Okay. But WHY’D you come back?!

Zane Tiri chuckled evilly.

Zane Tiri: Because I still haven’t given up on destroying the ENTIRE world. Especially Corona. And I need YOUR help.

Cassandro: No way. That didn’t turn out so well the last time.

Zane Tiri: Well, if you won’t help me start the biggest virus in the universe, then who will?

Cassandro stuck his fingers in his ears.

Cassandro: I’M NOT LISTENING TO YOU!

Zane Tiri: I thought so, which is why you’re coming with me. Also, take the horse… she’ll make a good snack.

Cassandro hopped on Fidello.

Cassandro: You’re not touching this horse OR ME! Fidello, trot!

Fidello started trotting and took Cassandro out of the woods.

Zane Tiri: You made the biggest mistake of your life, Cassandro!

Zane Tiri sighed as Cassandro had already left.

Zane Tiri: No matter. I don’t need him…

~ ~ ~

Meanwhile, Varia, Dani, and Grace were at Raphael’s castle.

Raphael and Eugia went up to them.

Raphael: Varia! Did you hear the news?

Varia: What news?

Eugia: Raphael and I decided to take it slow on the whole wedding thing.

Raphael: Yeah. We are still very much engaged, though.

Varia: Well, I have news for you. I plan on proposing to Cassandro.

Eugia: Oh really?! That’s great, buddy!

Eugia patted Varia on the back.

Varia: Yeah. But I don’t know when Cassandro’s coming back to Corona. I mean, he did write back to me saying he misses us and wants to come back...but…

Varia looked upset.

Varia: I don’t know when he actually will…

Just then, a horse’s gallop could be heard.

Raphael, Eugia, Dani, and Grace turned around and saw Cassandro.

Raphael: Cass!

He went up to Cassandro excitedly.

Cassandro: Raps!

Cassandro hugged Raphael, and then stepped back.

Cassandro: I came because I have some news. Oh, and because I miss you all, of course!

Raphael: I’m so glad to see you!

Eugia: And what’s the news?

Cassandro: Well, you know Zane Tiri… Yeah, he survived his defeat and is now set on destroying the world with some virus!

Dani and Grace overheard.

Grace: A VIRUS?! You know what this means, Dani?

Cassandro: You know something?

Dani rolled his eyes.

Dani: Yeeeeahhh… In 2020, everyone’s panicking about the Coronavirus. It’s mass hysteria. Heh. Even the oh-so “great” President Trump doesn’t know what happened. Figures.

Cassandro looked confused.

Cassandro: Oooookay…

Varia: With that aside, Cass, I have something I wanna ask you…

Cassandro: Okay. What is it?

Varia kneeled down and took a ring out of her pocket.

Varia: Cassandro Esdon Gothel, will you be the luckiest guy and marry me?

Cassandro looked teary-eyed and overjoyed.

Cassandro: Of course I will, Varia!

Cassandro then looked uncertain.

Cassandro: But I’m having bigger problems now. A wedding would just ruin everything.

Varia: Say no more. Zane Tiri is back and you wanna stop him from ruining everything. I’m right behind you!

Raphael: As am I!

Eugia: And me!

Grace: And us! Right Dani?

Dani: Right! Now I know for sure Zane Tiri caused that Coronavirus plaguing 2020, and I know what we’re going to do!

Cassandro: Great! Now all we need to do is get the rest of Corona to be on board…

Eugia: Speaking of which, where IS everybody?

Raphael: I know! This place has been oddly deserted. Even my parents ditched this place!

Grace: It’s the virus, Raphael. Zane Tiri must’ve struck here first before traveling to my time. I just wish I knew how he’s doing it!

~ ~ ~

Meanwhile, at the Miller home, Zane Tiri flashed right in.

Zane Tiri: The Miller family will soon love to see it’s most valuable family member become sick from my vile virus, which I will now call the Coronavirus!

Zane Tiri laughed evilly and shape-shifted into bacteria, and then went in the soup Robin was cooking.

Robin: Well, even if Riley has to stay home and So Random! is on hiatus due not only Sonny catching the virus - but the crew too, I shall eat this wonderful butternut squash I made for myself while I re-watch the old episodes of So Random!

Robin took the bowl of soup and headed to her room.

She turned on her computer and found the first season on Disney+.

Robin: This will be a great marathon!

Henrietta snuck up on Robin.

Robin turned around.

Robin: Henrietta! What are you doing?

Henrietta: I came to inform you that dad wants you to clean up the kitchen.

Robin: Can’t it wait? I’m catching up on the old episodes of So Random!

Henrietta rolled her eyes.

Henrietta: Oh, very well -

She noticed the soup on Robin’s desk.

Henrietta: Oh, sweet! Is that soup?

Robin: Yes -

Henrietta: Can I have some?

Robin: I only made enough for me…

Henrietta shrugged, then looked closer in the soup.

Henrietta: Ewwwww, what’s that green stuff?

Robin: It’s just spinach, Henrietta. Now do you mind?

Henrietta rolled her eyes.

Henrietta: I guess not. I’ll go see if dad needs help with the bills…

Henrietta left.

Robin: Finally some peace and quiet!

Robin began slurping her soup, but then looked queasy.

She collapsed to the ground.

Robin (queasy): Uggggghhhhh… I don’t feel so good…

Izzy, who was walking by, saw Robin on the ground.

Izzy: MOM! DAD! I think Robin’s dying!

Sarge and Torri rushed into Robin, Henrietta, Grace, and Dani’s room.

Sarge felt Robin’s forehead.

Sarge: I guess we have to take Robin to the doctor!

Torri: You take her. I’ll keep the house together.

Sarge: Oh, thanks Torri! Glad to have you around.

Sarge kissed Torri on the cheek and held Robin up and guided her out of the room.

Suddenly, Zane Tiri transformed himself out of the soup and turned back into his normal form.

Zane Tiri laughed evilly.

Zane Tiri: Ha-ha! My plan is a complete success! Soon the entire WORLD will tremble to me and my deadly Coronavirus!

~ ~ ~

Meanwhile in 1500, Dani and Grace were with Raphael, Eugia, Cassandro, and Varia in the throne room planning their next move on stopping Zane Tiri.

Varia: This is getting out of control! Not only Corona is in danger, but so is 2020!

Cassandro: I know Zane Tiri a lot from him manipulating me into joining his side. And I know one thing he CAN’T stand…

Eugia: Being called a squid bottom?

Cassandro: NO! It’s having no power. If we overpower him, he’s bound to just go away forever.

Raphael: But how are we going to do that? My hair was chopped off, and Cassandro, you don’t have your moonstone powers!

Cassandro: Oh, I don’t, don’t I?

Cassandro held up the opal that Zane Tiri dropped during his defeat.

The others all gasped out of shock.

Cassandro: Yes, yes, I know. I nominate Dani into having half of it, because there’s no way I trust myself with all that power again.

Raphael: But without my hair, I won’t be able to protect you if Zane Tiri were to, say, shoot lightning bolts out of his hands.

Dani: Which is why Grace and I have invented safety armor for all of us so it doesn’t hurt when he strikes us.

Grace: Yep. It’s in here.

Grace pointed to her book-bag she had been holding.

Varia: That’s brilliant! You know, I invented something as well…

Varia held up a flask of something blue-ish green.

Varia: This here, is a rubbery substance. Put this under the armor, and Zane Tiri’s attacks would become useless.

Grace: Brilliant!

Dani: Eh…

Eugia: Well, what are we waiting for? Let’s find that demon and tell him off!

Dani: According to my phone, Zane Tiri is in Royal Woods. In 2020.

Raphael: How’d you know that?

Dani: I put a tracking device on him when Grace and I visited him in 1400 when he was mentoring Father Gothel.

Raphael, Eugia, Varia, and Cassandro stared at Dani confused.

Dani: Don’t ask… Now come on!

Dani left the castle with Grace, Varia, Cassandro, Eugia, and Raphael following closely behind.

~ ~ ~

Meanwhile, in Royal Woods, Sarge and Robin were on their way home.

Sarge: I just don’t know how you got the Coronavirus, Robin. But when we get home, you’re taking a nice long bath!

Robin (drowsy): That sounds...nice, father…

Robin leaned back in the car seat and started snoring.

Sarge looked at Robin briefly, feeling concerned, and continued driving.

Meanwhile, as the car passed by, Zane Tiri was beside the road and grinned evilly.

Zane Tiri: Yeeeeesss… That Robin Miller shall just die a quiet, painful death like 3,237 people did in China! And no one can stop me from destroying the whole world!

Zane Tiri laughed evilly.

~ ~ ~

Varia, Cassandro, Eugia, Raphael, Dani, and Grace left a long wormhole and ended up in the backyard of the Miller home.

Varia: Nice backyard ya got there, Dani and Grace!

Dani: Thanks. It’s not perfect, but I’m glad to call this place home.

Just then, Dani, Grace, Varia, Cassandro, Raphael, and Eugia could see Zane Tiri walking past Angel’s house a couple blocks from the Miller home.

Dani: Oh no! I think he infected Angel! We gotta stop him NOW!

They all rushed over to Zane Tiri, who was now at the park and dog-piled him.

Zane Tiri got up and looked mad.

Zane Tiri: That’s all you idiots got!? You will PAY!

Cassandro: Everyone, NOW!

Cassandro and Dani shot out the black rocks from their hands.

Raphael and Eugia threw some swords at Zane Tiri.

And Varia and Grace threw some alchemy potions at Zane Tiri.

Zane Tiri, not giving up, looked more mad.

He sneered.

Zane Tiri: That’s the best you got?! You’ll regret ever being born!

Zane Tiri transformed into a new demon form - one with his usual body, with tentacles, horns, sharp teeth, yellow-ish red eyes, and he was 10 feet tall.

Eugia: Oh come on! No way we can defeat THAT!

Raphael: Think positive, Eugia! We got this! Right guys?

Varia, Cassandro, Dani, & Grace (in unison): RIGHT!

Zane Tiri: Aw, how sweet! But you really can’t defeat me.

Dani: We don’t have to defeat YOU!

Cassandro: We just have to maybe squash your giant ego!

Zane Tiri looked confused.

Grace: Of course, YOU wouldn’t even get it.

Eugia: Yeah! Your brain’s too small and can only really understand destroying everything in sight. Am I right, Varia?!

Eugia and Varia fist-bumped.

Varia: Right! You’ve gotta be the dumbest villain! You know how to manipulate and play with people’s emotions. But you’re forgetting one thing. Actually attacking your foes. Really cause damage! Don’t hesitate to let your rage out!

Zane Tiri looked furious.

Dani: But please, if you do, know that we’ll just beat you.

Raphael: Yeah! I mean, good always triumphs over evil! That’s what my uncle William has always said. Oh, and my parents, the QUEEN AND KING of Corona.

Zane Tiri looked more mad.

Zane Tiri: ENOUGH! YOU’LL ALL PAY!

Zane Tiri shot out lightning bolts from his hands towards Dani, Grace, Varia, Cassandro, Raphael, and Eugia.

They all dodged the lightning bolts.

Zane Tiri: UGH! You know what? I’ll be back! You haven’t seen the last of me!

Zane Tiri teleported out.

Dani: Well, was this the easiest battle or what?

Cassandro: That demon clearly doesn’t have the guts.

Grace: Well, it’s pleasure doing business with you, but we gotta go. Robin came down with the Coronavirus, and Dani and I have the antidote.

Varia: And we should probably go back to Corona and capture that demon!

Dani: Well, we wish you luck!

Grace pressed a button on her time travel wrist-watch and a wormhole came and sucked Varia, Cassandro, Raphael, and Eugia into it.

Dani: Now let’s head home and cure Robin!

~ ~ ~

At the Miller home, Dani and Grace saw Robin sleeping on the couch.

They went up to Robin with the antidote.

Dani: Hey, older sister. We have something for you…

Robin (drowsy): Is it a plate of sushi made by my beloved?

Grace: Even better! Open up!

Robin opened her mouth as Grace fed Robin the antidote.

Robin suddenly jumped up and looked really alert and energetic.

Robin: WOW! What was IN that drink?! I feel GREAT!

Robin back-flipped to the dining room, where the rest of the Millers were.

Robin: I’m CURED!

Sarge: You are?! HOW?!

Robin: Ya gotta ask Dani and Grace. They made this fantastic drink!

Dani and Grace went into the dining room.

Dani: Correction, it’s an antidote.

Grace: Yeah. And we discovered the cause of the Coronavirus.

Izzy: Really?! What is it?

Dani: Well, you may know that...Holly’s ancestor, Zane Tiri…

The rest of the Millers nodded.

Dani: He caused the whole epidemic!

Torri: I don’t believe it!

Brian: I know! I had to cancel my art club because of him!

Emery: And my book club!

Henrietta: And my math club!

Robin: And let’s not forget. Thanks to him, the So Random! show has been temporarily cancelled, Riley couldn’t come over, and I got the virus! The last part baffles me still!

Grace: But we are all good now.

Dani: Now to save the whole world, though. Cause everyone else in the entire world is suffering from what Zane Tiri created.

Izzy: But we can’t possibly ALL save the whole world!

Dani: True. But we can spread the word.

Robin whipped out her phone and began typing.

Robin: Problem solved! I tweeted the revelation of the true cause of the Coronavirus. People should find their own cures pretty fast now and stop panicking.

Grace: I hope so…

The Millers all came together for a hug.
