S02E215 The Zulu Heritage, Part 16, Shaken and Stirred

Guy Hasson
Age: 9, Told by Grampa Walt

We are back on the deck of Bonny’s Revenge.

Joy and Justin are both clearly shaken by their conversation with the First Prisoner or The Guardian Spirit, or whoever he really is.

Justin stares at the horizon from behind the wheel, as he takes the ship out. Joy stands by his side, staring forward as well.

After a couple of minutes, as we fly past the clouds and into outer space, Joy hugs Justin. Justin stops the ship in mid-space and hugs her back.

“Red is not dead,” Joy says.

“No, she’s not.” He hugs her and doesn’t let go.

“She’s not a creature of the Dream.”

S02E214 The Zulu Heritage, Part 15, Joy Shelley’s Guardian Spirit

Age: 9, Told by Grampa Walt

“Stop, stop, stop!” Justin raises his hands. “We can’t believe this Guardian that he knows where Red is or that he’s a dream creature from outside my dream like the Fairy Flies. He’s a villain. He’s lying.”

Amahle clicks her tongue to indicate ‘No’. “Justin, you do not understand. Tell them what you told me,” she tells the Guardian.

The Guardian looks at Amahle in anger, then looks away. Amahe can’t see his expression, but she notes the silence. “All right,” she says. “Justin. He has told me he is of the Adroazni, a guardian spirit, and a child of the god Adroa.”

“So?” Justin says.

S02E213 The Zulu Heritage, Part 14, What Happened to The Red Dragon

Justin shakes his head immediately after the initial surprise. “He’s lying to us, Joy. He’s a villain and he knows we care about Red.”

Joy nods vigorously. “Lying. Red’s not dead and he wouldn’t know it!”

Justin takes her hand. “Shame on you,” he tells the Guardian. “It’s a good thing we never talked all these years. You are evil.”

“My friend is dead!” the Guardian yells at them as Justin and Joy turn their backs to him. “And it is your fault!”

“Shut up!” Joy whirls around. She takes off her necklace and throws it into the Guardian’s cell, where it lands on the floor. “I don’t want it! I don’t want anything from you!”

S02E212 The Zulu Heritage, Part 13, The Angry Guardian

Guy Hasson
Age: 9, Told by Grampa Walt

“You,” he says. “What did you say to my daughter!”

I stretch my neck and see a man approach the bars. I have seen him before, but I did not pay him much attention, since Joy and Justin both pointedly ignore him every time they walk into the Infinite Prison. Now that Amahle says he comes from legends in the Congo, that gives more context to his black skin and his black hair that’s cut very short. The right half of his face is almost entirely covered by a metal mask, with room for an eye to peek through. But there is no eye behind that hole, but a soft yellow glow. Anything that is not covered by the mask looks human, including the other eye. He is tall, thin, and wiry.

He crooks his head. “Amahle, which of the villains could possibly convince you that Joy is an honorary Zulu when you were very clear on the point that she wasn’t?”

“It was–” Amahle begins, when Joy cuts her off.

“No, Amahle!”

“He is your father, Joy. We do not keep secrets from him and there is no reason this should be a secret. It was the Guardian Spirit in your prison.”

“I have a Guardian Spirit in prison?”

Age: 9, Told by The Red Dragon

Justin sighs. “Okay. Okay. Let’s all calm down, okay? This is a tough day. Amahle, you’ve yelled at Joy enough, we’re done with that. We’ll talk about it another day, when everyone’s not so excited.”

“You mean when I’m not so excited,” Amahle says.

“You have had a great tragedy. I don’t know what I would do if that ever…when that ever…” his eyes sneak a look at Suzy.

“I want to talk about it now!” Joy stomps her foot.

Justin stands between Joy and Amahle, his back to Amahle. “No! You can’t talk to her now.”

“Why not!” Joy demands.

S02E47 The Demise of the Martian Space Pirates, Part 2: The First Prisoner

Guy Hasson
Age: 6, Told by Grampa Walt

“Watch, Charlie, Grandma, Grampa,” Joy holds the shackles of one of the six Martian Space Pirates, who are just standing there on the deck of Bonny’s Revenge, and points in the direction of the doorway next to her cabin. “All you have to do is point and they go.”

“That’s right,” Justin says. “At this point the villains never resist. And Joy just leads them.”

Joy leads the prisoners. Charlie walks next to her, his eyes sparkling with excitement. Justin, Suzy and I walk behind them. Master Mind stays on the deck.
