*** Captain Black, accompanied by Raiden and Sheeva, subsequently enters the Netherrealm to meet with its ruler, Quan Chi. Introducing himself as Veil Captain Augustus Black of Earthrealm, Augustus Kahn of Outworld, he informs Quan Chi that he's there for Bi Han. With aid from D'Vorah, he retrieves the other man, then returns to his own realm... only to find that things went haywire in Section 13 in his absence, with the Vault torn open and Jackie in the middle of the whole mess.

*** Still suspicious, Captain Black tails Chang into his complex, only to immediately get lost, and soon run into a supernatural being acting as a guard. The fight ends when a stranger comes to his aid, whom he soon realizes is the god Fujin, who's conducting an investigation of his own. It turns out Chang is working for a warlord from another dimension, with his tournament being a pretext to let the warlord claim Earth if things go a certain way, and while Fujin can't directly act against Chang, he can choose a mortal to do so, and ends up choosing Captain Black. After wishing him good luck, Fujin departs, leaving Captain Black to get back to his work. Making his way through the halls, he encounters a hive of insect-like creatures, led by [[VideoGame/MortalKombat D'Vorah of the Kytinn]], who is temporarily allied with the warlord that Chang is working with; when they try to impede his progress, he relies on a combination of wits and weapons to defeat them, though the resulting blast sends him flying out of the area where they're fighting.

*** Meanwhile, Captain Black contacts his superiors in order to request backup. Finally, he gets through to North America's Veil Liason Officer, a young man named [[WesternAnimation/AmericanDragonJakeLong Long]], who is part of a group that deals with those that breach the Veil that generally keeps magic unnoticeable. When Black informs Long of Shendu's death and that the Dark Hand has the Pan'ku Box, Long decides to make this a conference call, contacting three other Liaisons ([[Manga/MahouSenseiNegima Negi Springfield]] of Europe, [[Manga/CardCaptorSakura Sakura Kinamoto]] of Asia and [[Manga/MissKobayashisDragonMaid Lucoa]] of South America) to inform them of the situation. Then they find out ponies are involved, declare the situation to be "Shining Faust", and disconnect.

*** Moving back in to real space, he discovers the corpse of the real Bartholomew Chang, and meets the man impersonating him: Shang Tsung, who's absorbed Chang's soul. Captain Black manages to defeat him, but in a way that opens the gate that will allow Tsung's master Shao Kahn to cross over and cause Earthrealm to be bound to millennia of Mortal Kombat, unless someone stops him on the other side first. Captain Black willingly steps through the portal, to the astonishment of Fujin.

*** The next Guardian Space sees Captain Black meeting Sheeva of the Shokan, who offers him a meal to replenish his strength before they fight. She proves honorable, and they fight afterward, with Captain Black winning again before moving on, the two parting with a mutual respect.

*** To be continued.

** Returning to Dr. Andonuts' lab, the group takes the Skyrunner to Summers, and manage to get into the museum that Pokey was headed to, where they interpret some inscriptions regarding an evil stronghold behind space and time, in the Deep Darkness. On their way back out, they answer a phone call from the Fourside museum of Natural History, prompting them to make a detour back there. At the museum, the six meet with Mr. Spoon, but he won't show them his discovery unless they bring him an autograph from Venus, the new singer at the Topolla Theater. There, they watch Venus's performance, and note something unusual about her singing - they can't make out the words, just a sense of loneliness. After the performance, they get her autograph, and learn she somehow knew they were coming, and that her current stage name is her second choice, since her first (Mercury, which prompts a shocked gasp from Moondancer, whom Venus has been unusually affectionate to) was viewed as too masculine, before sending them out.

On their way back out, they answer a phone call from the Fourside museum of Natural History, prompting them to make a detour back there.

*** Upon arriving, the team meets Chang, and are introduced to him. During this meeting, it is revealed that Viper once did a few jobs for him, which she's not proud of; meanwhile, Captain Black is getting a nervous feeling about all this.

** Day 04: Spike and Samus recount the story of their mission to the planet Aether in order to investigate a Galactic Federation ship after all communication is lost with it, and discover a war between the native Luminoth and the Phazon-born Ing… and encounter the being known as Dark Samus, the reborn Metroid Prime. While on Aether, Spike gains the armor he is wearing at the start of the story.

** One morning, while on a snack run to Bosco’s Inconvenience Store, Max returns to the office with a magician’s hat and, while pretending to perform a magic trick with it, manages to a unicorn filly out of it. Identifying herself as the “Gweat and Powaful Twixie”, she promptly adopts Max as her daddy. The next day, Trixie gets introduced to the incredibly paranoid Bosco, and while playing outside, manages to earn enough money to pay the exorbitant prices he charges them for supplies.

*** A little over a month after Trixie’s arrival, the Freelance Police get their first case since her arrival: the Soda Poppers, a group of former child stars, have been hypnotized and released from a mental institution and are causing trouble in the neighborhood, trying to hypnotize people into adoring the man who hypnotized them. Fortunately, the trio are able to stop the master hypnotist’s evil plan.

*** A month passes before the trio get their next case: annoying talkshow host Myra Stump is holding her entire audience hostage. The trio manage to get into the station by agreeing to fill in on a few other shows (since all the usual actors are in Myra Stump’s audience), and in the process, Trixie wins a recording contract after performing on ''Embarrassing Idol''. After three shows, the trio get into Myra’s studio and discover Myra herself is under the influence of an animatronic teddy bear, which is manipulating her into making the best show ever. Tribe manages to disable the bear, ending its control of Myra.

*** The trio gets their next case when the commissioner sends them to investigate Ted E. Bear Mafia's-Free Playland and Casino (which is, of course, being run by the Toy Mafia) and rescue the agent he’d previously sent to infiltrate the place. After discovering the man they’re supposed to rescue is a traitor, they inadvertently blow up the casino, and head off to celebrate.

*** When the President of the United States begins passing crazy new laws, the trio head out to investigate. They soon find he’s been replaced by a hypnosis puppet (like the bear controlling Myra), which is quickly disabled… only for its controllers to declare an emergency special election, with a giant robotic duplicate of Abraham Lincoln as their candidate. Trixie gets Max to run against him, and after speaking up in support of him, wins every vote in the country in his favor. The mecha Lincoln accepts this, crushes the guy trying to control him, and heads off to find work in Hollywood.
*** Interlude: Max’s first days in office. Now President for Life (with Sam as Vice President and a robot named Maimtron 9000 as Secretary of Defense), he’s passed all kinds of crazy laws of his own, yet his approval ratings are the highest in history.

*** While Max is still president, this doesn’t stop the trio from getting a new case: the internet and an associated virtual reality game, Reality 2.0, are hypnotizing people and causing systems around the world to go haywire. The group manage to use the game to enter the internet and locate the Internet’s avatar, learning that she too is being manipulated by a being known as Mr. Roy G. Biv, and is also trying to make sure nobody will purge her for being an artificial intelligence. Trixie figures out a solution: by declaring the Internet (renamed Jane Wiggin) her new mommy, nobody will want to get rid of the Internet. Naturally, it works.

*** After Trixie guesses who’s really behind all the hypnosis cases they’ve been dealing with lately, the trio get a call informing them that her guess is right: Hugh Bliss, host of the third show they were on during the Myra Stump case, has taken over the moon and is preparing for a mass hypnosis of the entire world. The trio heads to the moon to confront him, and when he tries to control Max, Trixie gets mad… and her anger not only breaks his control (and puts everyone under ''her'' control), it exposes his true identity as a space-faring colony of sentient bacteria. Backed by the powers of everyone on Earth, Trixie obliterates him, and then the trio set out to punch everyone on Earth in the head to undo the hypnosis.

*** Returning from their trip to de-hypnotize everyone on Earth, the group discovers they missed one (their fish Mr. Spatula), and he’s controlling Maimtron 9000 to try and wipe out Trixie, believing she’s an imposter and he’s the real one. After wiping out Mr. Spatula, Maimtron shuts down, inadvertently reminding Trixie that she hasn’t sent her Christmas letter yet. The trio decide to go deliver it in person, and shenanigans ensue when they discover Santa is possessed by a demon. Fortunately, after recovering four action figures of the four Horsemen of the Apocalypse, they manage to exorcise the demon and save Christmas without any casualties.

*** After a month-long trip back from the North Pole, Sam and Max must travel to Easter Island to save Trixie after she’s kidnapped by the monkey-like Underfeet… who recognize her and worship her. When Sam and Max arrive, they help stop a volcanic eruption, saving the day.

*** When zombies begin rampaging, the trio heads for Germany to confront Jurgen, an ego vampire running a nightclub that creates the zombies, who all love Trixie’s TV show. When she performs for them, the zombies turn on Jurgen and end his threat.

*** When Bosco goes missing, the trio team up with their neighbor Flint Paper to try and rescue him. However, they soon discover Flint is both working for Bosco’s kidnappers - the mysterious T.H.E.M. - and in control of them via time travel. After taking control of the time machine, they manage to set things right, meeting Bosco’s mom in the process. However, T.H.E.M. suddenly show up and try to crush his soul. Finally, a series of incredibly convoluted events end in Bosco’s soul being pulled through one portal, while the others go through a different one.

*** The trio emerge from their portal with Bosco’s body and find themselves at the gate to Hell. With the aid of Trixie (who apparently is friends with someone already there), they get visitor’s passes and enter Hell, where they manage to free both Bosco and Stinky. Unfortunately, Sam trades his own for them Fortunately, Trixie gets it back, and the group, after dealing with Hell’s management, manage to put Satan back in charge and return home, though not without getting a couple of spells Trixie will need in the future from him.
* Arc 4: ''The Devil’s Playhouse'' (chapters 32-42)

*** Back in their own world, the trio find themselves confronting General Skun-ka'pe over a future-telling toy, which they discover is from the Devil’s Toybox, a dangerous artifact associated with the Elder Gods. After much work, they manage to banish Skun-ka’pe to the dimension known as the Penal Zone.

*** While the trio are taking refuge in some caves under their apartment building and watching a movie about a their ancestors (and influencing the events) via a movie projector that gives off eldritch energy, it also affects Trixie, forcing her to relive bad memories from her previous life… and wakes up to find Max apparently lifeless. To her horror, his brain is missing!

*** Sam sets out to find Max’s missing brain and discovers Skun-ka’pe has returned and is behind the theft. Interrogating a gorilla, he learns Skun-ka’pe also has the Devil’s Toybox and is working with a magic-user, Anton Paiperwaite (who was also in the movie they watched). Sam and Trixie head to the Museum of Mostly Natural History, where they learn the evil duo have hooked Max’s brain to a magitek device that’s summoning all the toys to the Devil’s Toybox. In order to temporarily animate Max’s body, they install the brain of Sammum-mak, a long-dead pharaoh, into it and convince him to help them, promising that after he does so, they’ll move his brain into a spaceship so he can travel the cosmos. Unfortunately, despite this, he turns on them and uses the contents of the Toybox to create an alternate reality under his control. Fortunately, the trio (including Max’s brain in a jar) are able to destroy the Devil’s Toybox (via the same type of magical surge that defeated Hugh Bliss), undo the effects and restore Max to his body… but with the side-effect that a bunch of Sam clones are approaching them, forcing the Freelance Police and an unconscious Trixie to retreat.

*** Trixie awakens a little over a week later to find herself in Mama Bosco’s lab and discover that the city is full of Sam clones and Max, having unwittingly eating a partially formed Elder God corpse (the portion of the Elder God Yog-Soggoth that was absorbed into Paiperwaite), has been turned into a giant monster. After managing to get into the Max-Beast’s stomach, the trio travel through his body and confront the Superego portion of his mind. They beat it when they discover a copy of his will (which he’s locked off so even he doesn’t remember it) and, when he reveals he truly does love Trixie as his daughter, the Superego agrees to help them. Trixie then draws on all her power, including absorbing dark dimension energy from the tumor, and uses it to destroy the tumor created from the Elder God corpse, saving Max.
*** When Sam, Max, Paperwaite and Yog-Soggoth reawaken, they discover Max is safe, but also weep at Trixie’s loss… until Sam coughs up a sphere of light that turns into Trixie, now an Alicorn. By absorbing and purifying dark dimension energy and achieving a new form while retaining her original personality, she is now effectively a goddess, and everyone around her kneels to worship her. Max, however, is just happy to have his daughter back.

** As Earth recovers and its citizens worship their new goddess, all the world’s people now following and serving her. A few years later, a now eighteen-year-old Trixie wishes for a consort. While trying to find her one, they find Mama Bosco has tracked down her home dimension, and now has a way to let her go there and find a love partner. The group passes through, and are met by Twilight and her friends, who are astounded when Trixie appears before them. Trixie, for her part, is surprised when she learns she’s now one of five Alicorn Princesses, and decides to head back home as soon as she finds a stallion. And while she chases Big Macintosh, trying to persuade him to fill that role, Celestia shows up and asks Twilight to explain. Twilight, unfortunately, can’t.

*** Jackie returns from another trip with the Sheep Talisman, but is too tired to take them to Mooseworld as planned. Apple Bloom decides to let him sleep while she and Scootaloo help Uncle research the Talisman, and Jade and Sweetie Belle mind the store. Meanwhile, Jade is annoyed at being called reckless earlier and decides to figure out what the Talisman does through trial and error. A while later, Apple Bloom goes up to check on both Jade and Jackie (who's being watched over by Audrey III). Jade awakens and sounds a little odd… and Apple Bloom quickly realizes she's been possessed by a demon, calling for Audrey to catch her.
