Random Day Special

Cancelled Villains
by ningkov1

A day to rejoice 
Lift up your voice
Cancel an array 
Not another day 

Cancel the Pant Devil 
Stealing again never 
So many precious memories gone 
To crimes I say so long! 

Cancel the Tax Beast 
On Neopoints he can’t feast,
Taking too much at random 
He doesn’t have a fandom 

Cancel Dr. Sloth and his evil plans 
Though his intelligence grand,
Help him see the error of his ways
Maybe peacefully he’ll spend his days

Cancel Balthazar’s Faerie catching 
No longer snatching, 
Counsel his childhood trauma 
Through healing no more drama 

Cancel Vira the vain 
Shorten her reign,
Then listen to her story 
Don’t just cancel and scurry 

Cancel but don’t erase 
Even villains have a face,
Behind their deeds a reason 
Changing for a new season

Maeve Slade Saves the Game
by cibola

Maeve Slade sat down at her desk,
A Robot Buzzer in pieces before her.
As she tinkered with the wings and lights,
Her phone buzzed with a soft purr.

A message from her friends popped up,
Max Torra and Birdie Featherhart.
"Maeve, we need your help!" They said.
She pushed back from her desk with a start.

In the Virtupets common room they met.
"Maeve, you need to fix this Robot!"
Max and Birdie handed over a device.
Maeve said, "I'll give it a shot!"

She pulled out a tool kit and sat,
Tinkering with the buttons and wires.
Though she normally only fixed Petpets,
This was easier than putting out fires.

"It's fixed! But why do you need this?"
Maeve asked, holding it up high.
"Dr. Sloth needs this Robotic Golf Club stat!"
Yelled Birdie, quickly grabbing and running by.

Max pulled out his phone and texted,
"You saved his game, he can't be beat!"
Maeve grabbed her phone and replied,
"Good thing I am 1337!"

In the Town of White River
by sir_serene

The Elephante in the starry gown,
came along and cursed our town.
He cast a spell with a sickening sneer,
and made our bridge disappear.

His name ripples throughout the land.
Zombom! Former student of Adelan.
Slinging sinister spells as planned
with the magic at his command.

The town of White River fell to our knees,
in hopes the wizard would hear our pleas,
but the Elephante would not be swayed,
even by the master he’d betrayed.

Then a young swordsman asked us to tell,
the location in which Zombom dwells,
where he stays and studies his spells.
The wizard's fury, he promised to quell.

Young Rohane, so bold and brave
ventured into the underground cave. 
Once inside Zombom’s mysterious tower,
he'll face the wizard’s wicked power.

Zombom will greet him with spells, irate.
For Rohane, it may already be too late;
he will suffer the weight of his own fate.
Decimate. Decimate. Decimate… Wait!

Is that the bridge? Has it reappeared?
Rohane defeated the one we feared?
Our streets are surely soon to burst,
and celebrate a curse reversed!

EXTREME POTATO COUNTING
by lachtaube

One potato, two potatoes,
circular and blocky;
Asked to count them out loud
by a super punk rock Wocky!

Three potatoes, four potatoes,
five potatoes – Twenty!?
How do you expect us
counting out so fast and many?

Six potatoes– no wait– now nine!
I think that that is plenty!
Hang on, wait! Stop throwing them!
Please, we're reaching seventy!

Edgar, Mr. Edgar, dude,
Shouldn't we slow down?
Relax my bud, quit throwing spuds!
*[GAME OVER]*
Well, it was worth a try.

Love for Guilds
by lynnrules118108

I log into my Neopets account
To start a usual day.
Dailies, battles, customisation:
All fun ways to play!

But I can feel something missing for me,
One area feeling neglect.
Playing by myself is fun
But I feel the need to connect.

So I go to surf the guild boards,
Seeing terms I do not know.
NR, AI, Trad? 
My thoughts are knocking to and fro.

The search can sometimes feel hopeless
And you can feel misunderstood,
But finding the right guild
Can change your Neopets life for good!

From friends from years gone by
to friends made as recent as today,
Belonging to a guild
Is one of my biggest reasons to stay!

From fun events, to Neopets help,
To the community that you build
I encourage every interested player
To find their perfect guild!

Defender of Thee
by noileh

When trouble's a brew
What's Neopia to do?
Why not call up Zee,
One of the Defenders of thee?

To your rescue she'll fly,
But not via the sky.
She'll arrive in a flash,
But she doesn't need to dash.

Zee can simply appear,
Whenever enemies are near.
How? She can teleport!
And danger she'll thwart.

From her very first day,
She kept chaos at bay.
Saving the HQ from ruin,
A defender? She's a shoo-in.

And so to Zee the Xwee,
We say, thank ye,
For where would I be?
Without the Defenders of me.

Mutant Kacheek
by betti666

My glowing red eyes
Might take you by surprise
But that’s not all you’ll see

As my brain sticks out
It might make you shout 
On this we can agree

With skin somewhat blue
Though that’s not fully true
It’s a bit more verdigris

You see I’m not a ghost 
I don’t want to boast
I’m a Mutant and carefree

My big fang-like teeth 
I find it hard to sheath
So Neopians sometimes flee

But don’t embrace gloom
In my Graveyard of Doom 
I’m just happy being me

A Krawk Named Karen
by 9kas

There once was a Krawk, an Ixi’s dear Petpet,
Together they made the perfect duet:
Confidently sassy, she squawked and squawked
While her buddy the Ixi barely talked. 

And each day they journeyed throughout Neopia,
From Maraquan waters to plateaus of Tyrannia. 
Till one day they found a fungus-filled cave
On Krawk Island’s shores, obscured by waves. 

Once inside, they heard a deep voice,
Giving the small Krawk a curious choice:
Taste the fungus and be prepared to grow,
What else will happen? Try it to know!

But first, a small change may be necessary,
For unique monikers are deemed compulsory!
And since your name has already been taken,
You cannot anymore be known as Karen!

With just five seconds of slight hesitation
Karen the Krawk made a declaration:
“From now I’ll be known as EleganceGrace”
And loudly stuffed fungus into her face!

With a bright flash of light and fiery glow,
The Krawk with a new name began to grow!
Gracefully her head crest grew to a mane,
Elegantly accentuating her elongated frame. 

The Ixi stared, with disbelieving eyes,
For now the two friends are of the same size! 
And as the duo crawled outside in confusion,
The Krawk squawked out a loud exclamation:

“Why is the cave entrance suddenly so small?
That when I am leaving, I’m forced to crawl?”
So though the Krawk now has a new name,
Her loud personality remains the same!

Wintery Ogrin Scarf
by therainbowsheep

Bundle up, stay warm!
Be well in these winter storms.
I recommend a specific piece,
Part wool, part fleece.

Wintery Ogrin Scarf, so cozy!
Keeps one warm, cheeks rosy.
Perfect for the Ogrin and more,
Leave it by the front door.

Vibrant shades of blue,
Colors I never knew!
Cerulean, turquoise, sapphire,
Of looking at it, I never tire.

Perfect for those with long necks,
The best wintery apparel tech!
Ogrins designed this scarf well,
It has me under its spell.

With it, I can brave the cold,
It is possible to be bold.
With my scarf in tow,
To new wintery landscapes I go!

Ode to Princess Sankara
by _myst_queen

When the sands spoke, Sankara listened
While fate in the starlight glistened
And still, they call her a villain
When truth was the crime she was given

She didn’t strike for thirst of crown
Nor joy in watching power fall down
Only the weight of what must be
When fate demands its cruelty

A name the desert hasn’t forgotten
With a crown now cracked and rotten
She sits among the dirt and stones
Across from her, a pile of bones

Biding her time until the moment is right
She will return to us in a sparkling light
For they cannot keep her hidden
By curse or blade or word ill-written

She waits where centuries unwind
With prophecy etched in her mind
The sands that judged her once before
Will call her back to rule us once more

Here lies Hubrid Nox
by unfreeze_xlinger2

Here lies Hubrid Nox.
It's been years since you were slain.
By the wicked and evil Xandra,
I just haven't been the same.

Here lies Hubrid Nox.
A warlock unlike another!
Who had a crazy piercing laugh 
No one could possibly smother.

Here lies Hubird Nox.
Was he friend or foe?
While he did cause chaos,
He wouldn't harm a soul.

Here lies Hubrid Nox.
MAGAX's old arch nemesis.
You think he'd be happy to have Nox gone...
So why does he feel such emptiness?

Here lies Hubrid Nox.
Your absence has torn me apart.
So, every day and into the night,
I will remember you in my heart.
