Magician's Realm/Dialogue

Beginning of Level
[A confused Frogger shakes his head. He hops on one tile to take in his bizarre surroundings.]

Frogger: Huh...!? Where am I?

[He shakes his head again. He finds who he believes to be Hocus chained and imprisoned in a cage.]

Frogger: Wha...? Hocus?

[Hocus turns around and moves to his left to get a look at Frogger.]

Frogger Hocus, is that you?

Hocus: That's right, I'm Hocus, but who are you?

Frogger [taken aback] What are you talking about? It's me, Frogger!

Hocus: [just as confused] Frogger?

Frogger: Hocus, what's going on? After all 5 Magic Shards were collected, why did you send me off to this weird place!?

Hocus: [agitated] So that's what he was doing. Pocus must have used you to collect the 5 Shards. I need to get out of here. If I don't get to him, something terrible will happen.

Frogger: What are you talking about? And why are you in that cage?

Hocus: I am the real Hocus! I am imprisoned here by my brother, Pocus. I am the one chosen to hold the Eternity Wand.

Hocus: My brother always envied the power of the Eternity Wand, and one day, he stole it. He probably wanted the Wand's power to himself, but he was not able to handle the Wand.

Hocus: He fell to the dark side when he used it. It caused a big explosion which shattered the Wand.

Hocus: Since then he has been trying to gather the Shards so he can restore the power of the Eternity Wand and conquer the world.

Frogger: ?!? ... So the Hocus I was... but then... Oh, no, I helped... WE NEED TO STOP HIM!!!

Hocus: Yes, we do. He isn't a bad brother. It's just that he was tempted by the magic of the wand.

Hocus: Get me out of here and take me to him. It is still not too late.

Frogger: Another bossy wizard? You guys really are brothers!

Midway Through Level
[Frogger pushes the button next to the cage, causing it to disappear and free Hocus. He can be heard telling the young frog, "Thanks."]

Hocus: Thanks Frogger! Let's hurry and catch up to Pocus.

[He takes a path that leads to the end of the level, allowing Frogger to follow him.]

Beginning of Level
[Pocus walks to the center of the room while Frogger and Hocus follow him. The demented magician turns around and faces the two of them.]

Pocus: Frogger? I see you made it past my little detour. It doesn't matter. I have the power of Eternity at my fingertips. And I have you to thank!

[Hocus furiously rushes to his brother's side to reprimand him.]

Hocus: Pocus, wake up. The power of the Eternity Wand is too much for you.

Hocus: It's making you doo all these crazy things.

Pocus: Crazy? You have been hogging this wand for so long, yet you never used its true powers. If you stand in my way, you will learn what the wand is capable of the HARD WAY.

[He vanishes in the blink of an eye and Hocus worriedly runs back to Frogger.]

Hocus: Sorry, Frogger. I cannot talk any sense into him. As he said, we'll have to do this the hard way.

Frogger: Don't worry, I have a score to settle with this wannabe wizard! But, uh, how do I beat the power of the Eternity Wand?

Hocus: Okay, Frogger, listen to me carefully.

Hocus: Pocus is challenging us with one of his card tricks.

Hocus: Do you see those 16 cards? The power of each shard has been split into three cards. You need to flip the cards of the same type. If you do, that should unleash the Shard's magic on Pocus.

Hocus: But be careful, if you get even one wrong, you might be attacked by the Shard's magic.

Hocus: Also, Pocus is hiding behind one of the cards. If you pick Pocus' card, he will open a portal and shuffle that row or column of cards.

Hocus: If you think you know which card Pocus is hiding behind, don't touch that card.

Hocus: Pocus still doesn't have full control over the Wand, if you flip over all of the Shard Cards, their power will probably be restored and that might knock some sense back into Pocus.

Hocus: Listen to me, Frogger. You have courage and a pure heart. That is all you need.

Frogger: Okay, here we go! I gotta save the world!

Frogger: Wait! Explain this to me one more time.

[Hocus ignores him and vanishes into thin air as well, leaving Frogger to begin the card game.]

End of Level
[Frogger manages to match three cards of the same element in the perilous game, causing the wand's magic to backfire on Pocus. He hops back to the center of the room to see the effects take hold. Pocus drops the Eternity Wand and faints. Hocus reappears in the room, claims the wand, and his brother is restored to normal in time for him to come to.]

Pocus: What, what just happened?

Hocus: Frogger here helped to save you from the Eternity Wand. Its power was just too much for you, Pocus.

Frogger: [confidently] Feel free to thank me anytime.

Pocus: [remorsefully] How could I have been so stupid? I caused everyone so much trouble. I'm so sorry Frogger. Will you ever forgive me?

Frogger: Now the world will really go back to normal?

Hocus: Yes, Frogger. Even Firefly Swamp should be back to normal.

Frogger: Well, I was nearly smashed, almost frozen, and pretty close to being a frog-kebab, but I guess it wasn't too much trouble.

Hocus: [crossed] As for you, Pocus. You almost destroyed Magic World because of your foolishness. Therefore, you must be punished.

Frogger: By the way, what are you going to do with him?

Hocus: I'm just going to have him mop the floors for a while.

Frogger: [disappointed] Don't do this again, Pocus.

Pocus: What was I thinking...

Hocus: Keep your mind clear, and one day you will be able to handle the Wand.

Hocus: As for you, Frogger, you restored the wand, saved the world, and even saved my brother.

Hocus: How can I ever repay you? How does a vacation on a peaceful island sound to you?

Frogger: [irritated] Nooo thank you. No more "islands." This frog wants to go home!

Hocus: Okay, let me transport you back. Take care, Frogger.

[Hocus casts a spell that envelopes Frogger in a ball of glowing light.]

Frogger: Thanks Hocus! Byeeeeeeee.

[After about a second, he is teleported out of the room and returns to Firefly Swamp instantly. All's well that ends well for both worlds until the brothers decide to mess with Frogger and share a laugh at his expense.]
