Transcript
Saigon is now ruled by Ngo Dinh Diem and Ducangers,which they are more savage than evil Lola Loud or an emperors.

At tonight, Ngo Dinh Diem start the plan with his generals in the secret room of Independence Palace. The Arguement started about Inkwell Isle after they realized the invasion will be failure.

"At the risk of repeating myself, the Army of the Republic of Vietnam will be failed to invade Inkwell Isle and other lands. Otherwise it will be encircled and rubbed, as not only by the VC ! We have to go immediately..." - Trần Văn Viên

"The Army of the Republic of Vietnam has not taken it back. And as such, we cannot afford to lose to the small one of other lands in our plan." - Ngo Dinh Diem.

"Mr. President, what is your plan?" - ARVN Advisor Walter Tuấn.

"We are planning to assassinate Cuphead. The lieutenant one who is our great example for seek some of weakness signs that cause Inkwell Isle will be no longer under his protection. As we will try assassinate other targets for invasions even though we do not need to commit assassination attempt on Ho Chi Minh due to the failure in our past." - Ngo Dinh Diem

"With what if we have our units, my president ?" - Advisor Walter Tuấn.

"Kim Chánh and her comrades will gonna to enter the Inkwell Isle One to find somewhere which Cuphead located for assassination." - Ngo Dinh Diem.

"It will be successful for help an invasion. The Devil has no chance against our dictatorship when we capture Cuphead's soul alive." - Cao Thiện Khiêm.

"Good ! We kill him and capture his soul alive that even his friends will not revive him " - Ngo Dinh Diem.

"But I object that it will cost your life if we are not prepared...!" - ARVN Advisor Walter Tuấn who objected the plan.

"And how could anyone oppose our iron fist power that we think we are not prepared to self-defense " - Ngo Dinh Diem

"That's because of the friendship of his friends and the Grand Alliance can kill you." - Advisor Walter Tuấn who objected the plan.

"Our plan will fail in Inkwell Isle if he is not dead ! Our plan must not fail. I might to suffer like our fate, but at least our power of iron fist would destroy the enemy alliance !" - Ngo Dinh Diem

The operation has been planned. The next day, assassin Trịnh Thị Kim Chánh, the killer of Toads, is being called and tasked by Ngo Dinh Diem.

I heard what Ngo Dinh Diem was saying to her. He was in his president room and now he ordered her. The Anti-Rubyism in South Vietnam give me an nightmare about my village, Ruby Rose and even her innocent supporters. He and his generals even more evil than Coalition of the Red Star dictators or terrorists.

"Ngài ghét bất kỳ ai theo Phật Giáo và chủ nghĩa Ruby. Chúng không được chào đón tới chúng ta, để mà ngài sẽ làm nước ta trở thành đất nước mạnh mẽ để không chỉ phá hủy bọn Việt Cộng mà có cả tất cả những gì liên quan tới Ruby Rose hoặc Hoa Kỳ kể từ lúc bọn Mỹ đã làm ở Mỹ Lai. (I hate every Buddhists and Rubyists. They're not welcome to us, so that I will make our nation into powerful nation to destroy not only the Viet Cong but also all anything related to Ruby Rose or USA since American did in My Lai.)" -  said Ngo Dinh Diem that he said to Trịnh Thị Kim Chánh. '' Chúng ta đã rồi lên kế hoạch tới xâm lược Inkwell Isle nhưng nước ta có thể bị đánh bại bởi bất kỳ ai sử dụng chiến thuật du kích ở châu lục đó kể từ khi chúng ta đã lên kế hoạch xâm lược nó. Ngài sẽ ra lệnh cho bạn tới tìm kiếm điểm tử huyệt của Inkwell Isle - ám sát Cuphead và bắt sống linh hồn hắn vì mang nó cho chúng ta, rồi cuối cùng chúng ta sẽ chinh phục nó trong tương lai của chúng ta. Rồi chúng phải tuân theo và dưới sự cai trị của chúng ta với Nam Việt Nam vì tương lai. (We have already tries to invade Inkwell Isle but our nation could be defeated by anyone use guerrilla tactical in Inkwell Isle since we planed invade it. I order you to seek Inkwell Isle's weakness - assassinate Cuphead and capture his soul for bring it to us,so that finally we will conquer it in our future plan ! Then they will be obeyed and be under ruled in our reign with South Vietnam for the future.)" - Diem said again.

"It will be done, Mr. President." (Vâng Ngài Tổng Thống.) - Kim Chánh replied,then she and 10 of her commandos are prepared to assassinate.

"Always has been, Chánh. I hope we will not left Lt. Cuphead alive though our plan may be failed or success." - Cao Thiện Khiêm.

They're gonna planning to kill Lt. Cuphead and steal his soul in an attempt to conquer Inkwell Isle. I can't believe their plan gave me nerves,....fear and nightmare. Those plan will be worse than the Soviets (USRAC), the Red Phoenix and the imperialists (NCP) ! I must warning to Lt. Cuphead, MSG. Mugman and all of their friends !

In Inkwell Isle, Trịnh Thị Kim Chánh and 10 of Vietnamese Ranger commandos deployed to find somewhere which Lt. Cuphead located until she found Hilda's Observatory after we signed the allied treaty to the Coalition of the Red Phoenix but then Sally Stageplay and her husband spotted her when they were in Inkwell Isle.

"Hey! What are you doing here? You trie-" -said Sally when she and her husband spotted her until they being sprayed to sleep by her sleeping spray.

And then Kim Chánh and her commandos try to blast open the door of Hilda's Observatory until Hilda Berg come from outside to spotted them and use the alarm speakers to cause alert and make us, her friends, Team Magic School Bus and even Lt. Cuphead are going to deploy themselves for defend.

"What the?!" - General Armando Hendrix readying his Barrett REC7 assault rifle as he heard the alarm.

"Intruder alert! Get your weapons ready!" - Ms. Chalice when she has ready to be first armed.

"They're here! We should take then down before other ARVN troops arrive! " - Lt. Cuphead as he grabbed his MP7.

As she and her commandos engage us in a gunfight, Kim Chánh ordered her commandos to attack us, so we will attack them. "More gunshot noises getting more happened".

Some of her commandos shot us and killed more of our guards. Hendrix, Lt. Cuphead, Ms. Chalice, MSG. Mugman and Cala Maria began to attack three of Kim Chánh's commandos. So as me and my allies along with Team Magic School Bus are going to gun down three more of those enemy commandos, forcing Kim Chánh and her commandos to fall back.

"C'mon chaps! Push forward!" - said General Armando Hendrix to his comrades as he fired his gun at the retreating enemy.

Also, some of the CRP leaders and their comrades who are in their army camp outside of that observatory hear faint gunshots in the distance.

"Did you hear something?" - Squigly said.

"No." - said the unnamed CRP colonel. "Probably just the wind." - said Squigly.

Meanwhile, Rumor Honeybottoms and Baroness Von Bon Bon with Captain Brineybeard, some of us (included Team Magic School Bus) and Wally's son run into them for information.

"This is Honeybottoms reporting! We need your help in handling the intruders! They commit to kill someone of us!" said Rumor Honeybottoms that she said to some of the CRP leaders

"Oh my...I think we should be prepared if the intruders came. Almost we are no longer to be your enemies but there are our true enemy here." - Claude.

"I believed that I bet someone blasted on bad happen. That thing is why I will make them suffer" - Masamune Date reply.

"True! The ARVN commandos has incoming up that we will surely encounter and defeat them." -said Captain Brineybeard.

"They don't have an chance to see how we will teach them an lessons for intruding by our defensive." - Edelgard, as equipped her combat axe and reload a T148E1 grenade launcher

"Oh no. I can't believe myself. But I tell the truth of important one who will die like me on my first time" - said queen Mousse Benetta

"WHAT?!" - Squigly said

We, Rumor Honeybottoms and Baroness Von Bon Bon with Captain Brineybeard and Wally's son are shocked. We still hear her happen.

"Someone who gifted more important to their homeland. But when it being targed to be dead in the hand of the invaders who commited the assassination, then this is how one homeland will be conquered and sorrowful if there are very much weakness by kill the most important one. I may be died on my first time on the assassination until I come back from dead but the Inkwell Isle will not able to survive from the evil invader, like the Chaos have done to my kingdom in the beginning of the Chaotic War if lost the main important hero until we defend. ." -said queen Benetta

"And will Cuppy die here ?.....as are we go suffer...?.." - Baroness Von Bon Bon reply in unhappy after holding her M1014 Cotton Candy

"Sadly, yes. He will be gone in the disharmony ways which worse than the Devil......by in the hand of the rouge Ducangers who want his demise....." - queen Benetta reply in tearful.

We and Bon Bon are surprised to learn that the CRP comrades are here to help us. We must hurry to come to Cuphead for defend him after queen Benetta has even warned us.

"Damn! Those Bustas (referring to the ARVN) are giving shite to us !" - Carl Johnson angry saying. He reload his M16A2 for ready

"We must get there to help Cuphead ASAP! He's in danger as we are worried he might die." - said Squigly when carried her AT4 rocket launcher.

Masamune Date riding his war horse and run fast,as we are run to try defend Cuphead before he dies there.

Meanwhile, Lt. Cuphead and MSG. Mugman with his friends are attacking Kim Chánh's commandos. Beppi runs forward to perform the bayonet charge as Masamune Date arrived. But we believe we are going to attack the most of Chánh's commandos.

Also, The Root Pack and the Phantom Express took down four of Chánh's commandos. Squigly grabs an AT4 Rocket Launcher to perform the assault as her comrades are attacking Chánh's commandos. The rest of Kim Chánh's commandos are under fire.

"Chánh! Chúng tôi bị áp đảo hơn ! Có quá nhiều người trong số họ! (Translation: Chánh! We are outnumbered! There's too many of them!)" - Sgt. Cao Thị Xuân Hòa to Chánh.

She said that they are being outnumbered but Kim Chánh keep on going to attack. She order them to keep resist. We get our advantages to take down them.

"Hurry! We must take down the intruders from South Vietnam!" - Ms. Chalice said when firing at ARVN Commandos with her Beretta PMX.

"We won't let them escape from our homeland!" - MSG. Mugman, firing his Steyr AUG.

We and the CRP comrades took down the most of her commandos, only her, Xuân Hòa and the last one.

Meanwhile in ARVN Base of Bến Tre, General Trần Văn Viên was thinking about the mission.

"Điều này không tốt. Chúng tôi nghĩ rằng nhiệm vụ của chúng tôi sẽ thất bại, Tướng quân. (This is not good. We think our mission is going to fail, General.)" - the ARVN communication officer informed.

"Chúng ta không sao. Nó sẽ rất khó khăn tới ám sát Cuphead nhưng Kim Chánh sẽ thử sau khi chúng ta thất bại tới việc kiểm soát tâm trí Cala Maria tới xâm chiếm Trường Sa trong trận đó." (We are okay. It will be hard to assassinate Cuphead, but Kim Chánh will keep trying after we failed to mind control Cala Maria to invade Truong Sa in that battle) - General Trần Văn Viên said. That's means the Ducanger admitted themselves that they failed to invade Truong Sa.

Hearing gunshots, Sally Stageplay and her husband wake up and are confused.

"Wake up, you two. You've got a friend to save." - Sólyom Csőrmester said when he saw her.

"Ugh....What happened here?.....I'm so confused." - Sally replied.

"Our comrade Cuphead is going to be dead by none other than those wretched South Vietnamese. I believe my queen Benetta might have predicted your bad future. We have no choice to see it but to protect him! "- Blueberry Angel said.

"Yes, our leaders will not see how broken cup shards will be made." - Toby Esterhase as he said about Lt. Cuphead's fate.

Sally shocked. "Oh my god! I won't have the chance to see him die!" - she said.

Sally and her husband helping us to attack Kim Chánh after equipped weapons.

Kim Chánh had little to no chance of surviving or she would risk failing her mission. In a last ditch effort, her last commando and Sgt. Xuân Hòa threw smoke grenades at us and Cuphead's friends. We can't see due to the smoke but Kim Chánh threw a flashbang at Cuphead, blinding him after Mugman, Ms. Chalice, and Cala Maria (Hendrix excluded) can not see Cuphead due to smoke clouds from the smoke grenades.

"WATCH OUT!" - General Armando Hendrix trying to warn Cuphead as he sees Kim Chánh aiming the M-16VN at Cuphead.

But before he could react, Kim Chánh managed to fire the gun at Cuphead, fatally wounding him due to the accurate shot from her. We almost tried to protect him but she still wounded him.

"NO!" - General Armando Hendrix as he saw Lt. Cuphead getting shot.

"Cuphead! We won't let you die here!" - MSG. Mugman yelling as he worried to tearful and witnessed his older brother being fatal injured. He tried to repel Kim Chánh who shot his older brother for heal him

"Cuphead... I must protect you but... we tried our best to save you. I.... " - Ms. Chalice said when she is now tearful worried as she tried to protect and heal him until...

She and Cala Maria with us and our friends worried but we are trying to get off the smoke cloud. Even Lt. Cuphead also worried about us and his fate.

But we are too late. "A big loss for you guys, and now I must kill him." - Kim Chánh committed to say. She grabbed an M72 LAW and fired it at the badly injured Cuphead.

"Oh no.......our destiny may live in the harmony life...." - Lt. Cuphead's last words after he knew he cannot dodge it due to his fatal wounds.

A rocket flying from her M72 LAW being launched and eliminate him in one hit.

"Boom!" The explosion blew Cuphead into nothing but cup shards which turned him into a soul while his body has been destroyed. His MP7 has been damaged but his head is now totally broken by explosion

"The cloud of smoke dissipated"

"CUPHEAD!!!" - Hendrix, Mugman, Ms. Chalice and Cala Maria yelling in tearful emotions when they witnessed Lt. Cuphead's demise by rocket launcher. I can't believe it. This is not assassination but turned into homicide-assassination-like shootout for Ducanger dictatorship which we hate them.

It would make worse than Benetta's assassination that almost Lt. Cuphead's friends suffered the lost. He couldn't survive the horrific explosion. And now it will be too much sadder than I thought.

The explosion turned him into a broken cup. Those flying cup shards fragmented and make some of our friends injured due to the random shard cut, including me due to my leg wounds.

For example to Cala Maria who get her wounded and drop her M4A1 due to being shard cut on her left arm

She getting hurt and moaning due to bleeding, as Mugman and Ms. Chalice tried to help her cover the wounds.

"Mugman......it's getting hurt....!" - Cala Maria said in tearful.

"Don't worry... Ms. Chalice and I will cover your pain." - MSG. Mugman reply.

"I'll help you to survive here. You'll be fine." - Ms. Chalice reply again

Ms. Chalice put off the cup shard piece from Cala's left arm. Then she and Mugman covered and healed Cala by their bandages and first aid kid case. But they and Cala still lost their friend Cuphead.

"Lieutenant Cuphead.........I'm sorry..." - Cala Maria saying when she lost. She cried, so as Ms. Chalice and MSG. Mugman cried too.

"We still had a chance to save him....but..." - Ms. Chalice said in tearful.

"Brother......(crying)...we do not make it.." - MSG. Mugman mourning about Cuphead's fate but he is getting more of suffered from what he lost.

He, Cala and Ms. Chalice hugged each other. And therefore, some of us were covered the wounds and then...

"Come on Mugs, I know we're mourning your older brother's death, but right now we've got to move." - said General Armando Hendrix as he sheds a tear from his eye.

"No...please keep our heart.....,Cuppy !." - Baroness Von Bon Bon tried to say some words in tearful pain. Poor Bon Bon. She could not have the chance to rescue him when Chánh killed him in the brutal ways, as we tried to save him but too late. So as MSG. Mugman, Cala and Ms. Chalice also become pitiful like her.

"He......is now gone! As queen Benetta at her demise from her past......" - Cagney Carnation said but he suffered.

"Cuphead......this is our time to see you as our best friend after Der Kaiser's anschluss ended in the justice...but.....I....I...(Crying)" - Hilda Berg who saw him dying.

"Oh no....." - Beppi in his sad moment.

We and the CRP leaders are also witnessed Lt. Cuphead's demise, some of us will crying but we believe he still alive in his soul form that at least time Ms. Chalice believe that she and MSG. Mugman got the an chance to restore Lt. Cuphead by their parry slaps or commit an reviving chances at his soul.

Now I'm getting a shard cut on my leg, and by gosh, I didn't know any better. I had a cut on my leg, but now I'm being bandaged and I'm feeling fine despite of our failure.

But ...Kim Chánh won't let his soul escape by her ghost catcher gadget trap after threw her used M72 LAW. Curse her for turning Inkwell Isle went bad future!

She took away his soul in the witnessed eyes of others.

"Curse you! You took everythings which we want but you also make our friend Cuphead into the lost destiny since "Der Kaiser" (Werner Werman) did not call all of us are Rubyists today ! " - Captain Brineybeard. He is too angry as tearful that we want kill Kim Chánh.

But when 30 of the ARVN Huey choppers are incoming from somewhere to attack us, which she gonna to escape.

We can not left her escape as we tries to save Lt. Cuphead's soul until the ARVN Huey choppers's machine gunners firing their machine guns at us, so as we dodge and resist the attack.

Those ARVN reinforcement soldiers are come from their choppers that they gonna to attack us and rescue Kim Chánh.

"Tấn Công! (Attack!)" - a ARVN officer Lê Hải Thành in Vietnamese, then they firing at us.

"WE'VE GOT INCOMING!" - shouted General Armando Hendrix.

The assassination have turned into a shootout, more gunshots. They are take advantages as we are getting demoralized.

"We must repel the chopper assault! But Chalice and I will sacrifice our last chance to avenge and restore him!" - MSG. Mugman said. We, MSG. Mugman, Ms. Chalice and Cala Maria started fight back.

Most of us are attack again. Cala Maria has been driven into medusa-like form as she getting angry at the ARVN soldiers though she lost. And MSG. Mugman will avenge his older brother, as his friends and the comrades of CRP will show their powers to attack the ARVN soldiers. We are keep hold the ARVN chopper attack until...

Our reinforcements have arrived. We took more of our advantages.

An airstrike from Ensign Nogami and our allied fighter jets (including an A-10 Warthog) destroys some of ARVN choppers.

Dimitri Alexandre Blaiddyd and his allied CRP troops have ready while the US troops (from Inkwell Isle) and our reinforcements are protecting us. The Grand Alliance APCs incoming for us, as deploy their soldiers into battle

Bramble and Briar roaring like war cry when they come out from their BTR-80. They also perform help our assistance,so the platoons of the Date Clan and Prince Cedric did same. The some teams from Preschools Girls and our allies are rescue us.

"Kim Chánh, chúng ta phải đi mau trước khi bọn chúng cướp chiến lợi phẩm ! (Kim Chánh, we must go on before they rob our war trophy!)" - Xuân Hòa

"Nhưng.......vậy còn cậu,đồng chí? (But....how about you, comrade?" -Chánh replied.

"Cứ đi đi ! Tớ sẽ cầm chân bọn chúng! (Just leave! I will hold them back!)" - Xuân Hòa's last words to her.

She has move away. Sgt. Xuân Hòa equipped bayonet attached on her M-16VN. She run toward to attack us.

"Wretched ducanger scum." - General Armando Hendrix as he slightly kicked an unnamed AVRN soldier's body before running off to support his allies.

Baroness Von Bon Bon getting deeper sorrow... until she start threw a tantrum by avenge Lt.Cuphead's death. She look at ARVN soldiers who firing at us.

"You.........monsters! I will not forgive you for bring down my beloved Cuppy who also our comrade, as we lost because of you! " - Bon Bon in her vengeful tear.

She also run toward to Sgt. Xuân Hòa but Sgt. Xuân Hòa dueled her

"Tao sẽ giết mày, Bon Bon ! (I will kill you,Bon Bon !) - Sgt. Xuân Hòa speak in Vietnamese when tried to pulling attack on her by bayonet.

She quickly dodge Xuân Hòa's attack, then she fight back. The ARVN squads are pulling their bayonet charge attack while some of their soldiers are aiming. But thankly to being bandaged on my legs, I still active that we were covered in healing until we started to perform melee attack.

Soon, Lê Hải Thành charging at me by his saber. But I prepared, so that I duel against him with Joseon sword.

War Creampup Fortress have arrived to firing at the ARVN huey choppers by the mounted turrets and gunners.

Soon, Lưu Trọng Hà and his comrade snipers who in some grass of the forest ambush and sniping at some ARVN Huey gunners for prevent their assault.

"You do not think about my sweet candies!" - Bon Bon. She kicked and disarmed Xuân Hòa.

She drop her shotgun, then Xuân Hòa use her hand to fight her until Xuân Hòa being beated,defeated and captured alive by her and her comrades.

She also assist her friends and us, as her War Creampup Fortress protect her.

Cala Maria (gorgon form) turned 5 ARVN Huey choppers and their machine gunners into stones,as those of it being down to be self-broken. MSG. Mugman and Ms. Chalice charging at ARVN charging soldiers by their melee weapons.

"Eat these! You murdering bastards!" - said General Armando Hendrix as he threw several grenades at the AVRN soldiers.

"No one can escape from my floral fury!" - Cagney.

Cagney and the Root Pack attacked and killed some of ARVN soldiers.

Beppi, Djimmi, Goopy and other friends (include Team Magic School Bus) are charging at ARVN soldiers who also charging.

Squigly and her comrades charging at ARVN soldiers who also charge attack.

ARVN huey choppers firing at Hilda Berg, Rumor Honeybottoms, Grim Matchstick and Wally but they easily dodge, as they repel the attack by their skills. The Date Clan and the CRP allies are banzai to attack the ARVN soldiers.

"FORWARD! FORWARD! KEEP HOLDING THEM BACK!" - said General Armando Hendrix as he fired his Barett REC7 at the AVRN troops.

The battle was more happened as more performs on defensive and offensive.

Due to being under attack, the ARVN soldiers and their Huey choppers are being forced to retreat but they are escort Kim Chánh who got her ghost trap gadget which certain Lt. Cuphead's inside of it. I see Kim Chánh tried to escape but Lê Hải Thành stopped me by try kill me.

"You do not have another Rubyists !" - Lê Hải Thành to me. He assault me but I repel his attack on the defensive. Then I resist and defeat him until I eliminated him by my sword.

Then I see my friends and my comrades defeated the charge attack of ARVN soldiers. I ran to Mugman and Ms. Chalice that we are going to track down Kim Chánh. The ARVN soldiers who tried to escort her are attack us until we killed them. Mugman and Ms. Chalice run to attack Kim Chánh,so we assist them.

"You did not get out the ways of this, murderer!" - Mugman who tried to rescue his brother's soul by attack Kim Chánh.

But then her gunners against and prevent him and us rescue him. Worse still, Kim Chánh use her revolver to injure Mugman but he dodge it until her machine gunners slow his advance attack by heavy fire.

And she and seven ARVN huey choppers with their soldiers retreated and escaped even though they lost most of their comrades after they captured Cuphead's soul and left us suffer the lost destiny.

"THOSE MOTHERF***KERS! >:(" - said General Armando Hendrix in anger as he saw them escaping with Lt. Cuphead's soul.

We have lost Lt. Cuphead, the fate of Inkwell Isle will be happened after it will be supa loss. But to MSG. Mugman and Ms. Chalice, they are now sorrowful after Cala back into normal. I can't believe on our lost but Cuphead is now gone,it reminded about my late grandfather and my late niece since I remembered.

MSG. Mugman and all of his friends run to his brother's body that he saw it has been already fragmented into pieces while it's head has been already broken. He knee down, drop his Steyr AUG and started to crying....

"Brother......I promise.....we and our friends are now the true comrades.....till we live....in our heart..of...(crying)..." - MSG. Mugman.

Due to the lost destiny, he grieving like our comrade. His friends are now mourning,as we are sorrowful. It could not make any better for us but into the lost destiny of Inkwell Isle. Weepy crying louder when Lt. Cuphead's friends will be the witness of their tragedy like us. Some of our comrades who are our former enemies witnessed to feels bad or sad. Squigly, queen Benetta,Briar and their comrades are grieving too.

"How could anyone do this in the tragic ways!?" - Djimmi the Great when he is angry and crying same time.

Also, Bon Bon screamed and cried when she run into MSG. Mugman that she is now lost our hero Cuphead. Ms. Chalice and Cala hugged Mugman while Wally and Grim started to be more pitiful.

"Those South Vietnamese bastards are gonna pay for this!" - said General Armando Hendrix.

To the eyes for her and all of her friends, they remembered that we, Lt. Cuphead and MSG. Mugman have not only saved them from the enslaved soul contract of Eeofol and The Devil's strike but also save all of Inkwell Isle in the USRAC War. We never forget Cala who also help us to save her friends. But now we and they may lost Lt. Cuphead but he will live in our hearts.

The Devil and King Dice are happy in Inkwell Hell but they won't know how the ARVN Ducangers will storm all of their things in that place. We know Kim Chánh committed to massacre the Toads and kill Lt. Cuphead. She and ARVN generals must be worse than the generals of Beleninsk Pact, the NCP and the CRP combined.

Some of our soldiers and our comrades may be angry to see our friend Cuphead dies in the cruel ways, especially to Date Masamune, Dimitri and Blueberry Angel (who also cry and angry) with their comrades. Someone will threw a tantrum due to see the tragic death of Lt. Cuphead and it's light-hearted.

The reporter and their cameraman come to committed to make the news about Lt. Cuphead's demise. As Shuke's custom transport helicopter and the Red Cross helicopters have come to help our wounded soldiers and collect Lt. Cuphead's fragmented body.

Vanilla Ellie and her medics come from Shuke's custom transport helicopter to try collect Cuphead's fragmented body. We,her and Blueberry Angel tried to comfort Mugman and all of his friends.

"Cuppy.....,you helped us and me for the justice and make the sweet lovely with me..but..,please don't leave us....please." - Bon Bon to that fragmented body in the hopeless.

"Please calm down, Sweet Bon Bon. We will make you and your friends live in the harmony that we hope you're okay....." - Vanilla Ellie in her tearful eyes.

"Comrade Ellie.....I hope you that you and your friends will be our comrades...." - said Mugman.

We and Ellie with our medics are comfort Baroness Von Bon Bon. She was right,the tragic explosion will left her,her friends and us live in a cold, cruel, Cuphead-less world, unlike "their dark past about getting lost their soul due to soul contract.".

Ellie and her medics collected Lt. Cuphead's fragmented body to Shuke's transport helicopter for transport to Inkwell Hospital for start new surgeon and restore but they will need his soul later. His USRAC War-era former enemies will become more regretful.

Until now, MSG.Mugman and all of his friends will know Kim Chánh who killed his brother that they are in hopeless ways but we hope we know his soul which will be still alive.

The news about Lt. Cuphead's demise will be more spreading to not only Inkwell Isle and also other worlds... until they will be shocked and emotional later.
