Saber Marionette J Files: Enter the Pretenders Part 1
[We begin this story in the city-state of Japoness on the planet Terra 2; home to the hero of the nation Otaru Mamiya & his 3 Saber Marionettes: Lime, Cherry, & Bloodberry. It's morning time & Cherry is up as usual, fixing breakfast for 2 fellow Sabers & her "Master" Otaru]
Cherry: Good morning, you three.
Lime: Wow, Cherry! Whatever you're makin', it sure smells delicious.
Otaru: Ain't it the truth, Lime. Cherry's the best there is when it comes to cooking.
Bloodberry: Maybe if I cooked for you, Otaru, you think you'll love me a little more than that flat-chested sweetie-pie?
Cherry: Watch it, you oversexed loon!
Bloodberry: You want some of me, you little sweetie-pie?!
Otaru: Hey, hey, girls, chill. We don't need to start the morning like this. Bloodberry, no offense, but I've seen how you cook.
Lime: Otaru's right. Besides, I love Otaru & I'll stand by him no matter what!
Cherry: Don't forget I love Master Otaru, too!
Bloodberry: Otaru needs a real woman, not an immature, little girl or some meek, mommy-type with him. (Softens voice) Right, Otaru?
Otaru: (stammering) I…I…uh…uh….let's just eat, OK?
Cherry: Oh poo. I'm almost out of rice.
Lime: I'll go & get some more!
Otaru: Lime, I think I'd better go with you this time. Remember the last time I sent you out for rice?
Lime: Oh yeah, but I got that magic lottery ticket, remember that?
Otaru: Yeah & we won a year's supply of pickles; no offense, Cherry.
Cherry: None taken, Master. You 2 better get going.
Lime: You're right. See ya later.
(While Otaru & Lime went out, back in Gartland, the 3 Saber Dolls: Tiger, Luchs, & Panther, were getting to know their new comrades, the Decepticon Pretenders)
Luchs: So, you 3 Pretenders are some of the best the original Decepticons had to offer.
Submarauder: That's correct.
Bomb-Burst: It is true that we are fierce warriors & we can be of absolute service to you, your nation, & your leader Faust.
Panther: We've heard of your abilities, but are they enough to aid in the fuhrer's cause for world domination?
Tiger: May we see these powers you possess?
Skullgrin: Why not. Let's show'em, boys!
(Skullgrin, Submarauder, & Bomb-Burst split their monster exteriors & revealed their robot interior forms)
Bomb-Burst: Are you impressed?
Tiger: Our interest is quite peaked.
Submarauder: But you know we are Transformers; so we have vehicular forms.
Panther: We know; all the more reason to crush Otaru Mamiya & his precious Sabers & regain Lord Faust's trust.
Skullgrin: Frankly, we don't care what your aims are, but we just love a good battle.
Submarauder: But be warned; we hear that our Autobot enemies are here on this world, too.
Luchs: The Autobots? Yes, there are Autobot Pretenders, aren't they?
Panther: Yes & they could align themselves with Otaru & his Sabers.
Tiger: Saber Dolls, Decepticon Pretenders, we must move quickly, at once!
All: Right!
(Back on Japoness, Otaru & Lime have yet to return from their grocery shopping. Meanwhile, back at home, Cherry & Bloodberry both receive letters via their next-door neighbor as well as rival for Otaru's affections, the wealthy, spoiled, pretty-boy, Mitsurugi Hanagata)
Hanagata: Hello, "girls". Where is my wonderful Otaru?
Bloodberry: He's out shopping with Lime.
Cherry: Just why are you here, Hanagata?
Hanagata: Well, I just came by, to wish death upon you, of course, but for now, I bring you letters.
Bloodberry: (punches Hanagata out of the way) Get outta here, you bleach-blonde fag! (Opens the letter) It says, "Help! Come to the mountains. Otaru". Cherry: Funny. Mine says that Master's out on the beach. He's probably out there frolicking with Lime. I won't allow it! Master Otaru, I'm coming!
Bloodberry: I'm comin' for ya, Otaru! Then we can start our new life together, my handsome sweetheart. (Both girls rush off)
Tiger: (In the background) Excellent; they fell for it. Now Otaru Mamiya, you'll be in for the ride of your life.
