Grimlord's Dummy

Woody asks Kaitlin, Ryan, and JB to find entertainment for the annual Underground Kid's Extravaganza. They go to the park, where they track down WENDLE, a young ventriloquist and his dummy, WOODMAN. They hire him on the spot. When Ziktor gets word of the Trooper's mission, he transforms and orders Despera to place a spell on Woodman--bringing the puppet to life. Wendle is first amused at Woodman's unexpected outbursts, but then realizes he has no control over the dummy. When the dummy begins to grow to human proportions, he announces his true objective: to destroy the VR Troopers. Woodman steals JB and Kaitlin's Virtualizers, then runs off. To distract the Troopers, Grimlord sends PUPPETOID into Cross World city. Ryan must fight Puppetoid while JB and Kaitlin find Woodman and restore him to his earlier condition. They recover their Virtualizers, Wendle and Woodman are reunited, and the Underground Kid's Extravaganza is a smashing success!
