Synopsis

One week after the events in the Sweet Jazz Museum, Molly Blyndeff tries to take some well-deserved time off at seashore with her friends. Her vacation is interrupted when the girls stumble on the freshly-beached body of Rick Shades, a bizarre "wizard" from the depths of the ocean.

The trio of girls bring Rick back to Molly's toy store in order to help him recover, but things quickly take a turn for the worse when Molly's older sister Lorelai gets involved. Her epithet, ☆Augment☆, gives her the power to create augmented realities, fantasy worlds that she refers to as "dream bubbles". Lorelai throws everyone into the store into one of her dream worlds and suddenly Molly's day off turns into an epic quest to escape Lorelai's world and rescue her friends from her sister's clutches.

Prison of Plastic is the story of two sisters living in a broken home struggling with their magical powers, themselves, and each other.

Molly Blyndeff, on a rare day off, waits at a street-corner to meet with her friends. She freaks out about how her friends are late, starting to spiral with anxiety. She thinks about texting her friends but decides against it and tried to ask someone for directions, like Ztreet Smartz said to do. But her social anxiety caused her to fail. She realizes that he likely would not have been helpful anyway as she was looking for someone not a place. That's when she heard her friend yelling.

Phoenica Fleecity, on the way to the beach to meet her friends, decided to take a shortcut and walk through the alley-ways as it is a shortcut. Running into the Wolf, she complimented her backpack, countering with a compliment of her own. Wolf asks if it is expensive, Phoenica Fleecity replies that it is and tries to leave but is blocked by Wolf. Wolf asks where she can get one but Phoenica replies that she can get one at Baxter's Department Store. Wolf points out she can't afford it but Phoenica points out that she could get a job. Wolf asks if she could take hers, when Phoenica rejects, she pulls out a knife. It finally clicks in her head, deciding to repeat the speech she learned from Ztreet Smartz, and hugged her. It did not work, instead the Wolf grabbed her by the backpack.

Molly finds them, as Wolf tries to get the Backpack from her but Phoenica won't let go. Wolf threatens her and Phoenica explains that it is what inside the bag that matters, not the bag itself. Wolf asks if it is money. Phoenica than offers her money she has on her, $5000. Wolf questions her so Phoenica pulls out her purse from her dress, causing her to believe her. Wolf, throws her against the wall, causing her backpack to separate from her. Molly subconsciously using her epithet, but realizing it will still hurt she rushes over and envelops herself in dumb energy, bracing for Phoenica hitting her, thankfully, it was a relatively soft impact. Midair the backpack's inhabitants fell to the ground, Molly's homework.

Phoenica started crying and yelling at Wolf. She then apologized to Molly as Molly comforted Phoenica. Wolf yells at them because the bag got ruined so Phoenica offers to cover the difference. Phoenicatook out her purse and produced 5 $1000 bills. Molly tries to hide it but Wolf saw it so Molly tries to bluff they are fake, Wolf does not believe her. They began to talk about what would happen if you give a vending machine these bills. Phoenica kept talking but Molly muted her. Wolf points out that even if they are fake she could still pass them off as real.

Trixie shows up yelling at Wolf and how she stood made Wolf feel uneasy. She name drops Roughouse remembering a couple scary stories about them, believing them to be boogey men. Trixie says she is a Roughouse. Wolf stares at Trixie's eye and stared at each other. She managed to choke out that it was impossible since they don't have a kid sister. Wolf asks if Trixie knows them and she explains that she doesn't but she wants the 5000 Dollars. Trixie then explains why Wolf has not heard of her and it is because her family have a reputation, they let opponents walk away. Trixie then pulls out a box cutter, and dragged it across the wall as she explained she didn't like to leave witnesses.

Wolf tries to bluff that she has an epithet but Trixie was unfazed, pointing out that an inscribed wouldn't lead with a knife. Wolf counters that she is also leading with a knife, making her a mundie too. When asked if Trixie wanted to tangle with an inscribed she laughed saying that this is her epithet, several more box cutters sprouting from her sleave. Becoming incredibly threatening and asks her if she wanted to fight her epithet. Wolf decides to hold Phoenica at knife point, asking if she cared about them, but Trixie points out she doesn't need them alive for money, also pointing out that she is getting ever closer. Wolf runs away, terrified. The Box Cutters fall to the floor. She's a mundie who's never even been in a fight. She embraced and apologized to her best friends, Molly and Phoenica, crying together. They are known as the Neo Trio.

"Yeah! Those are... words!"

Giovanni Potage decided to gather his minions (Crusher, Dark Star, Flamethrower, Car Crash, Spike and Ben) at Crusher's treehouse. He had an important message, he is leaving the Banzai Blasters.

They knew this was coming, after all. A week ago they had their first big mission, where they had obtained a magic amulet. Afterward, he traveled to a Seedy Town and lost the amulet while trying to get it apprised during the fight with another faction of the Banzai Blasters. Due to that faction's conduct, he decided to leave the organization. He has always seen it as a way to channel their energy into something positive, like crime. But it turns out the only thing the Banzai Blasters' higher-ups care about is turning a profit. Car Crash had tried to talk him down during the long walk home, but he failed. Afterward, he messaged the rest of them and they tried to convince him otherwise, but they failed as well.

He was a wanted man now and the cops had staked out his house. Because of this, he has been stuck hiding out in Crusher's treehouse. His minions see this as a reason Giovanni could climb up the Banzai ranks. But Gio doesn't want a promotion from meanies. He then announces he has started his own villainous organization, and all his minions are invited. Flamethrower asked what it was called, Spike asked what it did, and Dark Star asked how he will get funding, the answer to all these questions is no. They all want to join.

Giovanni's minions were the same as the usual target audience for the Blasters, directionless teens who were looking for something to get excited about. They expected to do petty crimes. Originally they did not have a leader, after all the Banzai higher-ups only gave leaders to newbies with promise. He was just a blaster with them and they made fun of him at first; He wanted to be called Hot Shot but instead was given the alias Creampuff due to him bringing home psalteries to their first meeting. They tasted great. Whenever they would start getting bored Giovanni would "start a fire under them" and a goal to work towards. Midnight Snack Runs would turn into heists and show-in-tell where it was a competition to see who could steal the strangest item. One time they even replaced hotdogs in a gas station with cat tails. They all started following his orders as second nature and once Dark Star started jokingly calling him boss, the name stuck. They loved their boss they were loyal to him and not the organization.

Giovanni announced they already had a new secret mission, split between two phases scheduled for Friday. Ben confirmed what day it was on and once he confirmed, he asked if they could move it. Giovanni explained that they cannot, but Flamethrower pointed out that Friday was his big cheer competition. Giovanni imednialty felt bad and apoligized. He added to the plan that someone had to stay beyond, that person would be Ben. Next up is business of transport, Car Crash isn’t availble as he is grounded for crashes all his family’s cars. Dark Star can’t becuase of his over-researching mom. Spike can’t because the Goose that stole her sandwich last spring is back in town and she wants revenge. He also needs a someone to bake some cookies, asking for Crusher’s help, but can’t since he has never baked them before.He tells them to make a cool bad guy name for their new group. And he think about hard this will be and he’ll need to ask his last minion for help.

Prologue C: The Rabbit Knight

Graham stands tall in a barren wasteland, a woman meets him saying her crusade will finally end. He reveals himself, calling her the Rabbit Knight. She has come to fight but Graham thinks its impossible. She's said that she has become strong, since they last met, and had acquired the sword of the Eclipse. He explains that a mere mortal is unless, as it would kill anyone who uses it, unless you are a lunarian. And he killed all of them a long time ago. The Knight reveals herself to be a Half-Lunarian, as she prepares to fight. The Knight taunts him till he strikes her, They both say they will kill the other, before using a secret technique to form a bow of light, planning to fire it at Graham. A faint voice says "Lori". Graham pleads for mercy, as the Knight continues to ready the strike. The voice, louder this time, says "Lori" once more. Just before finally releasing the bowline.

She hears a loud "Lorelai". The voice is actully Molly Blyndeff. She is now complaining at the Rabbit Knight, Lorelai Blyndeff that she didn't do the dishes. Lorelai screams at her. And then it is explained how their epithets work and how she can create Dream Bubbles, and that Molly is the only one that can combat her power. She found her very annoying for always nagging and asking for her to work, unlike her father who encouraged it. Molly was giving a speech about how Lorelai made her feel overwhelmed. She asked if they could just ask Dad about her work schedule, Molly pointed out that he always always takes Lorelai's side, Lorelai counters that maybe he just likes her more. Molly ran off, sad and hurt by what was said. The Summons looked awkwardly before Graham tried to continued, badly, Lorelai is disappointed before deciding that they should stop because the mood was ruined. She tried to pretend that it was everyone else's fault that she felt bad.

Prologue D: The Instructor

We start off at one of the many STEM research facilities scattered across the city. We come to learn that STEM doesn't actually stand for anything but aside from that we also learn that STEM was popularized for it's research in plants, specifically for their invention of a plant that can grow in any season and that it is an organization that values actual skill over simply being an epithet user, which is apparently quite rare in the modern day. In fact, they seek out competent mundies to hire who were turned down by other jobs. This may be because the CEO, Naven Nuknuk is also a mundie.

Cut to a rather pissed-off doorman. The reason he's so pissed is because of his job, which is to stand at the door for the CEO of STEM. He's not even a chauffer, he just stands there.

Suddenly the elevator behind him begins to ding, hitting the floor with a loud *THUD* before the CEO's actual chauffer made her way out of the elevator. She spun on her heels and turned to look towards the CEO who had barely survived the elevator ride, low and behold, Naven Nuknuk meagerly made his way out from the facility on uneasy feet and apologized to the doorman as he made his way into the car.

Seeing Naven as the CEO of a massive corporation was somewhat sad. He was known for his silver tongue, charisma and the fact that he clearly knew what he was doing, but seeing him in real life made him seem like an entirely different person. Naven was definitely not confident, quite the opposite actually, couple that with his unimpressive height, his sickly nature, him being overly empathetic towards mundies. The Valet watched as the Chauffeur bolted through the city.

In fact, he's way too empathetic towards them. The reason he went down that elevator was because he offered to be an interpersonal communications teacher for a little girl. It doesn't help that the aforementioned little girl asked him to help her friends too. But it was fine; they had come a long way since they had first started and one of them was showing a lot of potential.

Chapter 1: Fish Out of Water

Molly finds a dead body (Rick Shades), at least it appeared to be one. The rest of the Neo Trio catches up to her and they argue about what to do before he stands up and introduces himself. They scream before arguing about what he could be, before the corpse says he is a wizard. Phoenicia then introduces herself and explains she needs to assemble of group of magical girls to save the world, and asks if he would like to be one. This leads to an argument about if you need magic to be a magical girl between Trixie and Phoenica. Molly, realizing the man is likely dangerous, grabs her friends and attempts to drag them away from the strange man.

The man manages to catch up to them and gets Phoenicia to shake his hand, forming a 'pact' by becoming friends, in a swarm of black lighting. Molly and Trixie attempts to get Phoenicia to flee but instead she stayed and he attempts to explain his epithet after some confusion. He says it's "Soulmates" and Phoenicia gets flustered by his name before he explains it simply means keeping his friends in his soul. And then, explaining by example by using Phoenicia's book-smarts on her homework. Phoenicia is then appalled because he used her knowledge to complete his homework, which is cheating, due to this she no longer considers him her friend, breaking the 'pact'.

After a sob story and an apology they made up, reforming their 'pact'. He then attempted to learn the other two's powers, and after failing, he simply declared that he ill befriend them eventually. He then recalls them discussing winning, and asks about it. Trixie explains, what he is talking about. He then explains he has not eaten in days, prompting the three to try and find some food, failing, only finding some lip balm. He goes to do the task to win as they discuss whether or not lip balm is editable. Molly explains what Lip balm is and gives it to him, before he eats it. Everyone panics looing for a solution as they also learned he had drank nothing but sea water for the last three days. Trixie finds a potion in her bag and Rick goes to eat it before they stop him. He confirmed that they were friends before the man collapsed.
