Paris 2024: The Olympic Quest

(a lightning bolt cracks into the screen)

(camera zooms in to Mount Olympus as the heavy rain falls and the sky is dark)

(Zeus can be seen falling on his knees)

Hades: Bound him onto the cliffs!

(camera shows Zeus looking up at Hades)

Zeus: You can't do this! I am the king of Mount Olympus! I command you to stop!

Hades: King, huh? Not anymore. Take him away!

(Hades's minions grab Zeus as he gets dragged)

Zeus: No! NOOOOOOOO!!

Hades: *menacing laughter*

(camera cuts onto Hades opening Zeus's throne room)

(Hades start walking towards Zeus's throne)

Hades: Who even let little bro become the king of Olympus. I was supposed to be king. Being king of Olympus was better than being king of the underworld. But now, I shall become the king of both, and shall make Mount Olympus my new underworld.

(Hades sits down on Zeus's throne and his hands start to glow)

Hades: Yes! YES! It's working! I am consuming Zeus's powers and making them my own! I am becoming the NEW god of thunder! *evil laughter*

(door knocking)

Hades: Who's there?

(Hermes appears out of the door)

Hermes: Uhh... Yes sir, king Zeus. I am just here to remind you that the next Olympic Games will come in about one year an we haven't prepared much yet.

Hades: Zeus?! What are you? Blind?

Hermes: Oh Hades! I- I'm so sorry! Can you tell me where Zeus is? Hold on...

(Hermes looks at Hades sitting on Zeus's throne)

Hermes: Why are you sitting on Zeus's throne?

Hades: It's not Zeus's throne anymore. It's my throne.

Hermes: Where is Zeus? What did you do to him?

Hades: Nothing much, just bounded him next to the cliff where he bounded Prometheus.

Hermes: You don't deserve to be king. Go back to the underworld, demon lord.

(Hades gets angry as he stood up and put his face in front of Hermes)

Hades: Listen here, snake-bitten. I am your king now. That means I have all of Zeus's powers and I have enough to electrocute you until you turn into a burnt matchstick. So respect your king, or else we will have fried chicken for dinner.

Hermes: O- Okay... Anyways, as I was saying, king Ze- uhh, I mean king Hades, the Olympics are starting in about a year and we haven't prepared the venues for it yet.

Hades: May you say that again?

Hermes: Oh, uhh... We haven't prepared any venues for the Olympic Games?

Hades: Those last two words.

Hermes: Olympic Games?

Hades: Yes, those stupid rituals that they do every four years in honor of Zeus!

Hermes: What about it?

Hades: They were supposed to be mine! And they're still going on?

Hermes: Officially, every four years, hosted by both Zeus and the International Olympic Committee.

(Hades stands up from his throne)

Hades: Excuse me for one second.

Hermes: Hey, where are you going?

(Scene cuts to Hermes opening a door to see Hades ripping the Olympic rings off from the wall)

Hermes: Woah woah woah! Hades, what are you doing?

Hades: These rings do not deserve to be here! I do not want anything in Olympus related the Olympics at all. I will only accept anything that is approved by me.

(Hades throws the rings onto the torch, thinking it'll burn them)

Hermes: You do realize that the rings are made of adamant? They can't be burned.

(Hades removes the rings from inside the torch and tries to throw them into the ground)

Hermes: Adamant can't be breakable either. You need to do something else other than trying to break the Olympic rings.

(Hades gargles and tries to spit onto the Olympic torch)

Hermes: HEY! Except doing that! The torch is the main symbol of the Olympics! One single drop of water can even set it off!

Hades: But you told me to do something else other than breaking the rings. Also, I want to remove anything related to the Olympics. So why can't I do this?

Hermes: You know what? Fine! Spit on the torch whenever you want. The Olympics also makes humanity have strong bonds between them. People with bad relationships can even become friends in the Olympics. Friends and enemies. Heroes and villains. Rivals. Archenemies. Anyone can have strong bonds within each other in the Olympics. If you want to break these bonds, do it. If you don't want to give them a second chance, then don't.

(Hermes is about to leave the room)

Hades: Wait.

(Hermes looks back to Hades)

Hades: I have an idea.

Hermes: What is it, Hades?

Hades: I will not take the Olympic rings and torch... yet.

Hermes: Yet? What do you mean by yet?

Hades: I shall challenge the main guardians of the Olympic Games and if they win, the Olympic Games shall continue. If I win, the Olympic Games are mine.

Hermes: Guardians? You mean the Olympians?

Hades: No. The mascots.

Hermes: Mascots! Oh darn! I forgot today is the day to choose the mascot! Oh, uhh... (checks his purse) where is the winner? (takes out an envelope) A-ha! Well, see you later Hades! I am going to Paris for the Mascot Ceremony.

(Hermes is last seen flying away from the room, and the camera zooms into Hades)

Hades: A new mascot... That's even better. A rookie becoming a mascot makes it harder for the mascots to beat me. There is no chance that the mascot chosen is good at being a mascot. Alas, I'm interesting to see who this mascot is...

(The camera then looks up, showing evealing the mascot in the shadows)

Part 2
(Someone turns on the lights, revealing Louis, the mascot)

Louis's mom: Louis!

Louis: Mom! You're interrupting my mascot reveal!

Louis's mom: Look, I know you're excited for the mascot reveal, but you have to go to school too! Here is your backpack.

Louis: Ugh, fine. Here we go again...

(The camera later pans onto Louis walking his way towards school)

Louis (background): In case you're wondering, this kid that is dressed up as "Olympic mascot"-y as possible is me. My name is Louis, and I've always dreamed in becoming an Olympic mascot.

(Shows flashback of Louis when he was in preschool)

Louis (background): Ever since I was in preschool, my dream job was an Olympic mascot, meanwhile other chose firefighters, policemen, and dancers. Although my mother was fine with me becomin one, my schoolmates didn't.

(Other flashback shows Louis already in elementary, with him taking stuff from the locker)

Louis (background): Ever since I was in elementary, everyone mocked me for liking Olympic mascots.

(Louis is pushed by a bully as his books fell onto the floor)

Bully #1: *laughing* Hey look everyone! It appears that our little toddler-entertainer dropped his books onto the floor!

(Bystanders and bullies start to laugh at Louis)

Bully #2: Who even choses to be an Olympic mascot when they grow up? What are you going to do? Show some fragile little toddlers how to weightlift?

(Bystanders and bullies start to laugh again)

Louis (background): Although the reason they dislike me is usually because I like Olympic mascots, there are other reasons why they also dislike me.

(Camera switches to Louis at the gym)

Louis (background): I am also the best in my class at sports and physical education. I like to beat them in dodgeball...

(Shows Louis throwing many dodgeballs, all hitting the people from the other team)

P.E. teacher: Red vests win the game!

Louis (background): ...in basketball...

(Shows scenes of Louis throwing a basketball at the hoops)

(The whistle sounds, and the scoreboard shows 102-38)

Louis (background): ...and even kickball!

(Shows the pitcher throwing the ball, Louis kicks the ball, and the ball goes outside the school, thus making Louis's team win the game)

(Scene goes back to Louis walking to school, with the camera facing him)

Louis (background): But still, liking Olympic mascots is still the core reason why everyone dislikes me now. Although I was considered the jock of the classroom, I was never popular at school.

(Scene shows Louis's school in the background as Louis walks towards it)

(Louis enters the school gates)

Jules: Hey look everybody! It's the toddler-entertainer here in school again!

(Camera zooms into Jules's face)

Louis (background): You might be wondering who is this jerk that keeps making fun of me? That's Jules Baron Coubertin, the most popular kid at this school and the biggest jerk you'll ever meet. Everybody admires him, no matter what he does wrong. Whenever he injures someone, everybody cheers for him. Whenever he gets an F, everyone thinks the F stands for Fantastic, and not Failed. I bet that one day this jerk will kill his teacher and will still plead not guilty because "he is the one and only, Jules".

Jules: So, toddler-entertainer. It appears you have signed up to entertain toddlers for the upcoming Toddlerlympic Games next year. What are you going to do? Show toddlers how to say the world "Olympic"? Congratulations! You are now a daycare worker!

(Everyone laughs)

Louis (background): I asked my mom several times to leave this school, but she always said that I'm doing well here, which is true, but still, she never believes I am getting bullied at school, no matter how many times I try to convince her.

(Next scene shows Louis talking to someone at the cafeteria table)

Louis: But still, my dream of becoming an Olympic mascot is still here and I hope this time I'll get the title for the mascot of the 2024 Summer Olympics.

(Camera pans to the girl Louis was talking to, who was a new kid at school)

Girl: *weird face* Okay, first of all, I can agree with the other students. Dreaming of becoming a mascot of a sports event barely anyone cares about sounds very, like, childish. Being a fan of Olympic mascots? Not childish, but toddler-ish.

(Camera cuts to Louis with an offended face and cuts back to the girl)

Girl: Second of all, Jules is not a jerk. He is, in fact, the nicest kid I've ever seen in my school life. He dresses up neatly, very nice to me and the other girls, and he'll never hurt anyone or his feelings.

Louis: That's because you haven't seen the true side of him...

Girl: Can you, like, shut up? And third of all, when?

Louis: What do you mean "when"?

Girl: When did I ask you to tell me your story?

(The girl stands up and she leaves the table with a "Hmph.")

Louis: *sigh* Still an outcast.

(Scene cuts to the school bell ringing and then cuts to the gym)

P.E. teacher: Alright my dear students, today is a day where we do not use the ball to play. Today is the day we both use our limbs. And today, is the day... *pulls out black belt* of karate!

(Students cheering)

(Scene cuts to the teacher choosing pairs)

P.E. teacher: Jean-Pierre, you go with Ariane. Célia, you go with Lucille. Antoine, you go with Vincent. Louis...

(Camera shows Louis excited for his partner)

P.E. teacher: ...you go with Jules.

Louis: WHAT?!

Jules: *cracks knuckles* This is gonna be fun.

P.E. teacher: And remember, we are not fighting today. We are just training for tomorrow.

(Camera cuts to Louis and Jules training together)

Jules: Hiyah! *chops polystyrene plank* Yeah! That's what I'm thinking of!

Louis: Pffft. That's nothing. I can even chop 4 wooden planks stacked together.

Jules: How can someone who has the interests of a toddler and wants to be a toddler-entertainer chop 4 stacked planks?

Louis: *sigh* First of all, Olympic mascots are not toddler-entertainers. They're ambassadors, meaning they help the Olympics well by having merchandise of them and make the visitors and Olympians entertained.

Jules: So? That still sounds very childish. Anyways, try breaking this polystyrene plank, which I bet you can't do it. Alas, how can a toddler break something with their bare hands?

Louis: Okay, but I'll do it differently.

Jules: What do you mean?

Louis: Watch this.

(Scene shows Louis trying to break the plank with a new karate move, but accidentally knocks out Jules instead)

(Everyone gasps)

P.E. teacher: Jules, are you okay? Jules? Jules!

Boy #1: Way to go, Louis! You MURDERED him!

(Everyone gasps)

P.E. teacher: Calm down everyone! He seems okay. His heart is still beating but he won't wake up.

(P.E. teacher confronts Louis)

P.E. teacher: Louis, what did you do?

Louis: I didn't mean to! I was showing him my new move!

P.E. teacher: We weren't supposed to show new moves when we're training! How many times do I have to tell you that? Now Jules is unconscious. I think it's best that we take him to the hospital. But I think he's okay. But this behaviour is unacceptable, Louis. I told you several times to not show your new moves during training and you ended up knocking out someone out because of this. Please head to the principal's office.

(Next scene shows Louis sadly walking towards the locations, starting with the gym, then the hallways, then the principal's office, then the street he takes from home to school, and finally reaching home)

Louis's mom: Louis, I received a call from the school that you were suspended. Hey, where are you going?

(The part is over with Louis laying in bed, crying, while covering his face with a pillow)

Part 3
(Door knocking)

(Louis's mom answers the door)

Louis's mom: Yes?

Bela: Oh, hey miss. My name is Bela, former worker of the Organizing Committee of the Olympic and Paralympic Games Rio 2016 and currently working at the International Olympic Committee. May I talk to a gentleman named Louis?

Louis's mom: You work for the Olympics? But you look...

Bela: I know, I look young. But I am older than you think I look. Now, may I talk to Louis?

Louis's mom: Sure. He's in his room, but I think he's not in the mood for...

Bela: Great! Thanks! *enters the house*

(Scene shows Bela entering Louis's room)

Bela: Hello, bonjour, and olá! Wow, this room looks neat! Are you Louis?

Louis: Who are you?

Bela: Oh, my name is... Hey, what's with the frown?

Louis: Ugh. I got suspended from school today because I accidentally knocked someone out. They were unconscious.

Bela: Oh my. I'm sorry that happened to you. Anyways, my name is Bela and I formerly worked for the Organizing Committee of the Olympic and Paralympic Games Rio 2016.

Louis: Bela...?

Bela: That's me!

Louis: Hey, I know you! You're one of the Carioca sisters!

Bela: That sure is me! How did you know that?

Louis: I watched your TV series about you helping Vinicius and Tom during the Rio 2016 Olympic Games!

Bela: That's really cool! Also, by looking at your room, I can see you're interested in Olympic mascots, right?

Louis: Heck yeah! I have the toys, merchandise, plushies, DVDs, games, and everything with mascots in it! I also have a VHS of a recording of Izzy's Quest for Olympic Gold!

Bela: Well, guess what? Many volunteers for mascots did not do well for the Mascot Tryouts. And since you did well, welcome to the Paris 2024 family! You're officially the new mascot for the 2024 Summer Olympics!

Louis: *inhales*

(Scene cuts to Louis's mom making stovetop popcorn downstairs)

Louis (upstairs): YEEEEEEEEEEAAAAAAAAH!!!

(Scene ends with the stovetop popcorn exploding)

(Scene shows Louis excited from the news with Bela with hair standing up with a scared face)

Louis: Yes! Yes! I can't believe it! My dream ever since I was a kid finally became true!

Bela: Well... *fixes hair* Anyways, since you're the new Olympic mascot, we need to travel to Lausanne so you can get your title as the Paris 2024 mascot there.

Louis: Where the Olympic headquarters are located? Cool!

(Louis's mom can be heard running upstairs)

Louis's mom: Louis! Louis, my son! *opens door* Are you okay?

Louis: I was chosen to become the Paris 2024 Olympic mascot! Woo!

Louis's mom: Really? That's amazing to hear son! You have finally achieved your dream!

Bela: Anyways, miss. Me and Louis need to go to Lausanne so he can get the title for the mascot of the 2024 Summer Olympics. This may take a few days so that he can meet up with the mascots there. Louis, prepare your stuff because this is going to be a historic Olympic moment! I'll be waiting outside for you.

(Bela leaves)

Louis's mom: As she said Louis, go on! Pack your clothes and maybe take some of your video games so you can play with the mascots!

Louis: Alright!

(Louis's mom leaves)

Louis: *takes out suitcase* Alright, so what should I take? Hmm. Of course I need my swimming clothes and equipment. What else? Oh! My surfboard! But it's too big... Eh, I'll take it outside the suitcase. My skateboard! Oh, and my phone is on the pocket. My gymnastic equipment, football cleats, tennis racket...

(Scene shows Louis packing all his needed stuff)

Louis: Done!

(Suitcase looks very full, but doesn't explode)

Louis: And don't forget my surfboard. Let's go!

(Scene shows Louis struggling with the suitcase and surfboard downstairs, but makes it down)

Louis's mom: Bye Louis! *kiss* I love you. I'll see you in a few days!

Louis: Bye mom!

Bela: Let's go?

Louis: Of course!

(Scene shows Louis and Bela going to the Charles de Gaulle Airport, they wait for their flight to Zurich, and a scene of them in the airplane plays)

Louis: Hey Bela. So let me get this straight. So you mean, every Olympic mascot is in Lausanne for this ceremony?

Bela: Of course they are! From Smoky from the 1932 Summer Olympics to Fiu from the 2023 Pan American Games!

Louis: Wait what? Even the Asian, Pan American, and European Games mascots are there too?

Bela: Yes! Even in events associated with the Olympics!

Louis: Wow. This is going to be the best day of my life.

(Scene shows the airplane landing on Zurich and take a car to get to Lausanne)

(Both Louis and Bela stop at the Olympic Park)

Louis: Wow! I can't believe I'm here! The home of the Olympics!

Bela: Louis, please follow me. I'm showing you a tour of the Olympic Park.

(They walk towards the Olympic museum)

Bela: This is the Olympic Museum, with all the fine history of the Olympic Games, ever since the beginning.

Louis: It looks amazing! I always wanted to visit it.

Bela: Not yet. Follow me towards the mascot hideout.

(They walk towards the hideout)

Louis: Hey, those are the Olympic headquarters! Is the hideout there?

Bela: Unfortuantely not. But we're planning on making one since the current hideout is very old, built ever since the 1968 Winter Olympics in Grenoble. But anyways, let's go.

(They walk towards a secret room that was inside the Olympic Park)

Louis: It's dark in here. Are you sure this is the hideout?

Bela: Not the hideout yet! Just the entrance. Oh, and here is the code to access the hideout.

(Bela gives a piece of paper that says A113, the code to access the hideout, to Louis)

Louis: These statues scare me.

Bela: Don't worry. They're statues of famous Olympians. They're not like weeping angels.

(Bela enters the code, and they both enter an elevator)

Bela: Hang on!

Louis: What do you mean hang oOOOOAAAAH!

(The elevators falls quickly, and the doors close)

(Scene shows the elevator descending quickly, with Louis being scared)

(Elevator dings)

Louis: *covers mouth* Urgh, I almost threw up.

Bela: Well, Louis, welcome to the Olympic mascots hideout!

(Scene shows a panoramic view of the hideout, with mascots of all the Olympic Games)

(Scene cuts to Louis and Bela walking towards the main center)

Louis: Woah! This is incredible! And you're right! All mascots are here!

Bela: Correct! We got mascots with various forms, from animals, to humanoids, and even humans!

(When Bela lists the forms, some mascots make cameo appearances)

Louis: I'm so excited to meet them!

Bela: You will! You have become the main topic of discussion between the mascots and they are so excited to meet you! You're now part of them! Just wait for a few moments

Louis: Few moments?

Copper: Hey! Look! It's the mascot for the 2024 Summer Olympics, Louis!

(All mascots start to cheer and go on top of him, most are congratulating him, asking for autographs, or asking questions)

Louis: Hey, I know you guys! Sam, the one and only bald eagle! Oh Izzy! I'm a huge fan! High five! *high fives Izzy* And everybody knows it's Misha! What's up, comrade?

Bela: Alright everybody, get out of the way please! Louis is going to join the elites!

Louis: Who are the elites?

Bela: You'll see.

(Part ends with Louis and Bela heading towards the main center, where the elites are)

Part 4
(Bela opens the door, Louis enters)

Bela: Well Louis, this is going to be your home for a few days, so enjoy yourself! You're gonna love it here!

(Bela closes door)

Louis: *looks around* Wow!

(Scene shows how the main center looks like)

Louis: This is incredible! I can't wait to see how it looks like!

(Louis looks to the right and to the left)

Voice: Hey!

Louis: *turns around* Yeah? Huh?

(Louis doesn't see anyone)

Louis: What the?

Voice: Ouch...

Louis: *turns around* Huh?

(Louis sees Miraitowa who seemed to be hit by Louis's surfboard)

Louis: *drops suitcase and surfboard* Oh my! I'm so sorry! I didn't see you!

Miraitowa: It's okay. I'm fine. This isn't the first time that's happened to me.

(Miraitwoa stands up)

Miraitowa: *shakes head* Alright. Anyways, konnichiwa! How are you? My name is Miraitowa! "Future eternity" in Japanese. Official mascot of the 2020 Summer Olympics.

Louis: Yes, I know you! You're one of my favorite mascots!

Miraitowa: I am one of your favorites..?

Louis: Yes! You look so cute!

Miraitowa: *starts blushing* Wow, I've never heard anyone say that...

Louis: Anyways, I'm gonna introduce myself. Bonjour! I'm Louis, official mascot of the 2024 Summer Olympics. Pleasure to meet you!

Miraitowa: Hey, you're the new mascot, am I right?

Louis: Certainly!

Miraitowa: We've been waiting for you! The other mascots are excited to meet you too! Would you like to meet them?

Louis: 'Course I do!

Miraitowa: Great! Take my hand.

Louis: Okay...

(Miraitowa starts flying, Louis is confused)

Louis: What in the... I didn't know you could fly?

Miraitowa: Secret ability! *wink*

(Miraitowa starts to fly, with Louis saying "Woah!" as they lift off)

(Both Louis and Miraitowa land on a room)

Miraitowa: Hey guys! The new mascot is here!

Louis: Hi! Nice to meet you all!

(Scene shows some of the Fuwa playing sports while the rest watch a football game)

Yingying: Hello!

Nini: Ni hao!

Jingjing: Oh. Umm... Hello?

Huanhuan: Hi kid! What's your name?

Louis: Louis. The official mascot of the 2024 Summer Olympics.

Beibei: Hey it's him! Vinicius, say hi to him!

(Scene shows Vinicius cooking something at the kitchen)

Vinicius: Hey! What is up?

Louis: Vinicius? I didn't know you can cook!

Vinicius: Well, that's what I did ever since the 2016 Olympics were over. Who wants pão de queijo?

Beibei and Huanhuan: Me! Me! I do!

(Louis looks at someone)

Louis: Well, if it isn't Wenlock, the 2012 Olympic mascot. How are you, buddy?

(Wenlock just waves, but doesn't say anything)

Louis: Hello? Can you talk?

Miraitowa: Oh no, he can't talk. He is very quiet and only talks when necessary.

(Wenlock looks at them with a frown)

Miraitowa: Anyways, congrats of becoming an Olympic mascot! I know it's very difficult becoming one, but I'm glad you made it!

Louis: Thanks. That was my biggest dream ever since I was a child. I can't believe it. Ever since I was a child also, I always collected toys and merchandise related to mascots. I was obsessed with you guys. Oh, and M, I have something for you.

Miraitowa: Who's M?

Louis: It's a nickname I gave to you. Now hold on. I'll search for it.

(Louis grabs something from his suitcase and gives it to Miraitowa)

(Miraitowa notices that it's a gold plushie of him)

Miraitowa: It's a gold... me? The one that was in the athletes' bouquets?

Louis: Absolutely!

Miraitowa: I... I never had one. All the athletes on the podium got one, but not me. A bronze or silver me would make me happier. But a gold one? Where did you find this?

Louis: Unfortunately for them, an athlete dropped it. I guess it was an accident or didn't want it. I was in Tokyo at that time to watch the 2020 Summer Olympics, but I watched the events on TV. I found it in the streets nearby the Tokyo Tower. Since the athlete was nowhere to be found, I decided to keep it. But now, I think it's time that I should give it to you, because come on, you were the mascot. You deserved one.

Miraitowa: Wow... Thank you... *sniff* Thank you...

Louis: What's wrong?

Miraitowa: I don't wanna talk about it.

Beibei: What the heck? Why is there a portal in the field?

Nini: A what?

(Louis, Miraitowa, Wenlock, and the Fuwa go to see the TV, and there was a portal there in the middle of the football field)

Yingying: Vinicius, I think you need to come and see this. There's a portal interrupting the football game.

Vinicius: But my steak? Ugh, nevermind. *dashes to the TV room, leaving the steak behind*

(Scene shows inside the football stadium, where Hades's staff emerges from it and impales the ground, knocking off nearby players)

(Hades emerges fully from the portal, laughing in a menacingly way as the stadium crowd starts booing or screaming in horror)

Hades: Gooooood night, France! It is me, Hades, the god of mischief that everybody knows here and the king of the underworld and Mount Olympus. Do you see what's in my hands? *pulls out the Olympic rings* Up up and away!

(The rings are thrown into the air and they flew off in different directions)

Vinicius: Hold on. He said he was the king of the underworld and... Olympus?! What about Zeus?

Hades: Sooo, you must be wondering, what happened to Zeus? What did I do with the Olympic rings? Why do I have my staff on one hand and a torch on the other hand? Well, I have bad news that Zeus had the same fate as Prometheus, so because of this, I have taken over his throne and became the king of Mount Olympus.

Jingjing: What did he do to Zeus?!

Vinicius: We can't let this jerk take over his throne!

Nini: Not only that, what did he do to the rings?

Hades: Secondly, the rings are now spread all around the globe, with each ring being located in the continent that it corresponds to.

Miraitowa: I don't know if it's a coincidence or not, but it looks like he is talking to us from the TV.

Hades: *looks at camera* It's not a coincidence.

(The mascots gasp)

Hades: That's right! I can hear everything you're saying from this camera that I'm talking to! I am challenging you mascots to go on a quest to capture all of the rings! I'll give you two hints: they're located in Miami, Nairobi, Melbourne, Doha, and a surprise location in Europe. The challenges will be surfing, football, badminton, and the rest are surprises.

Louis: Pffft. That looks easy.

Hades: I never said it would be easy. Each ring will have a challenge you have to face off in order to earn it. This is a Ready Player One type of hunt. It may look easy until you see the challenges. You must do the challenges before August 1st. That means you have a whole week to try getting the rings.

Huanhuan: What happens if we don't get them?

Hades: I have the Olympic torch on this hand. If you don't get all of the rings after one week, this torch will be broken, and all of the future Olympic Games will be non existent! And the Olympic Games will now become "was" as they were in the ancient times.

(The mascots gasp)

Hades: Before I go, I only have one thing to say to you fellow mascots: Good. Luck.

(The TV breaks and Nini faints)

Vinicius: Ok, now what?

Miraitowa: The Olympics are in danger!

Huanhuan: Where is Zeus when we need him?

Jingjing: Who is Zeus?

Beibei: Why is Zeus?

Yingying: What is Zeus?

Nini: When is Zeus?

Louis: Alright, alright, calm down everybody. I know how we can solve this. What Hades meant is that those challenged we are going to face are infact sports. Since they challenged us, the Olympic mascots, what does he expect us to compete in? A card competition? A board game? No Olympics is ever complete without sports. You are all good at sports, am I right?

All: Yes we are.

Louis: Me too. With all of our sports abilities, we are able to defeat the challengers that we are challenging.

Huanhuan: Louis, think fast!

(Huanhuan throws a ball at Louis who was facing back, but Louis dodges the ball)

Huanhuan: Whaaa?

Yingying: That agile reaction time!

Louis: What are you guys doing?

Huanhuan: We're just testing if you are good enough to be a mascot. Now take the ball.

Louis: *grabs ball* Okay, now what?

Huanhuan: Throw it to one of the furthest objects in this room!

(Louis looks around and sees Vinicius flipping pancakes from the kitchen in the other side)

Louis: Watch this!

(Louis throws the ball and hits the pancake)

Vinicius: Hey! That was supposed to be part of the dinner!

Beibei: Wow! You really have a nice aim!

Huanhuan: Hmm... Hey! In our adventure to win against Hades, you can go everyday with some of us to try getting the rings! You really look like you are part of the elite mascots! Would you like to be the main leader of us to defeat Hades?

Louis: Leader...? Of you?

Huanhuan: That is right! I mean, you're the new Olympic mascot, so this time it's your turn in the spotlight. You get to show the world you are an Olympic mascot, and everyone will admire you!

Louis: What about you guys?

Huanhuan: We already had our turns in the spotlight, but that doesn't mean we are completely gone from being Olympic mascots. We will help you do well in it so we can get all the rings together!

Louis: Yeah... We can do this! Fuwa! Wenlock! Vinicius! Miraitowa! Gather around here!

Vinicius: Sheesh, fine. My roast is ruined anyways.

(The mascots gather around in a circle)

Louis: Alright, my fellow mascots. We can do this. We cannot let Hades destroy that torch. We cannot lose the challenges. This means that we need to believe in ourselves. Don't think that we are going to lose because I doubt we will. If you keep thinking that you can lose, the chances of us losing the challenges will be much higher. You need to believe that we are going to win the challenges, thus making the chances of victory higher. Since we do not have enough time for today, we can start this quest tomorrow. Tomorrow, we are getting the first ring, the red ring. Hades said it was in Miami, which the sport chosen is surfing, so me and Miraitowa are going there since our Olympics have surfing. The next day is Nairobi, where there will be a football match to get the black ring, so we can all go together. The third day is badminton in Melbourne, so me, Vinicius, Yingying, and Beibei are going there and we form two teams so that earning the green ring will be easier. The fourth day is a surprise location so I will bring Wenlock and Huanhuan with me, and if we need more, I can call you guys. I am still thinking for the fifth day, but it appears that these challenges look difficult, so we must believe that we can go through these difficult challenges so we can earn the rings. Got it? Great. Now, we say "For the rings!" at three!

All: One! Two! Three! For the rings!
