I haven’t done any parodies in a while, so I thought I’d bring one which is actually a sequel to my first parody, “The Little Sponge” and is a parody to The Little Mermaid sequel. I originally wasn’t going to write it since I wasn’t a big fan of TLM2, but after some thinking, I decided to write it. Plus, a lot of request suggested I should make a sequel so I’m sure all (or some) will enjoy this.

So, enjoy the first part…

The Little Sponge II: Return to Bikini Bottom

The story begins couple years after SpongeBob SquarePants and Sandy Cheeks defeated Plankton, got married, and now live on dry land. On a ship, they were now heading over Bikini Bottom to present a new member of the family…

Inside the cabin of the ship, SpongeBob picks up a giggling little dark yellow sponge with big blue eyes out of a crib. SpongeBob dances around the room with his son as he sings.

SpongeBob: You are my world

My darling

What a wonderful world I see

You are the one I’m naming

You're wonderful my SpongeBob Jr.

His wife, Sandy, comes in with a smile as she begins to sing as well.

Sandy: Spongy, we'd better be going

SpongeBob: Look at him

Isn't he glowing?

Sandy: He looks spiffy and you look fine

But look at the time

SpongeBob: (gasps and smiles) It couldn’t be

As the couple begins to walk out with their son, Bernie stands in the doorway.

Bernie: The crew is awaiting your orders

Sailor 1: We're sailing away from our borders

Sailor 2: Steady, boy, steady.

Sailor 3: Ahoy there! They're coming!

Corneil: Trumpeters ready!

Drummers, start drumming!

The band nods and begins to do as they were told. SpongeBob smiles and begins to sing to SpongeBob Jr. again as he and Sandy walk across deck.

SpongeBob: Down to the sea we go

Down to a world I know

There's never been not ever before

A child born of sea and shore

All: Down to the sea we go

Down to the world below

A journey to bless a prince-to-be

Under the sun

And under the sea

Down into the ocean where Bikini Bottom is, where a large rock is; sleeping beside it is SpongeBob’s best friend, Patrick Star. He soon wakes up, and digs into his back pocket still feeling a little sleepy. He takes out a calendar and looks at it with his eyes widening at a specific date. He gasps in shock as he soon remembers, “SpongeBob’s coming.”

He gets up and runs down the street to Bikini Bottom shouting, “SpongeBob's coming!”

A pedestrian fish nearby hears him and gets a surprised look. “SpongeBob's coming?”

“SpongeBob's coming!” Patrick continued to shout as he ran down the street.

More and more fish continued to hear the news and questioned in shock to the fish next to him, “SpongeBob's coming?”

“SpongeBob's coming?” she told the fish next to her.

“SpongeBob's coming?”

Patrick ran past the Krusty Krab as he shouted, “SpongeBob's coming! SpongeBob's coming! SpongeBob's coming! SpongeBob's coming! SpongeBob's coming! SpongeBob's coming!”

As the news traveled, everyone began to leave Bikini Bottom in hopes of seeing SpongeBob. In a familiar Eastern Island Head, Squidward Tentacles was inside practicing his clarinet until he heard what’s going on.

Squidward: What's all the big commotion

That's spreading through the ocean

And interrupting my work

No, I can’t believe it

We’re actually celebrating

SpongeBob’s Jr.

Ohhh

Squidward then ran out of his house still in panic over the return of his most despised neighbor and the arrival of his son.

Squidward: Today when Krabs’s employee

Comes back and it’s a joy

I think I’m gonna scream

AHH!

His laugh I can already hear

It damages my ear

SpongeBob’s Jr.

While Squidward was standing in dread, Patrick suddenly ran past and grabbed Squidward, pulling him along with the crowd of Bikini Bottomites who were going up to the surface and singing happily in excitement.

La-da, da-da, di-da-da

La-da, da-da, di-da-da

Ohh-oh

La-da-di-daaah

Yeah

La, la-da, di-da-da

La-la-la

La-da, di-da-da

La-la-la

La-la, la-la-la

All the citizens of Bikini Bottom continue to sing as they reach the surface in front of the ship. Gary the Snail was slithering on the railing of the boat.

All: Up from the sea we rise

Up to the world of skies

There's never been not ever before

A child born of sea and shore

Up from the sea we rise

Up to the world of skies

Forever to be together as one

Under the sea and under the sun

Everyone from Bikini Bottom arrived at the ship hoping to see SpongeBob Jr. Then with a large grin, SpongeBob holds his baby for everyone to see as he continues to sing.

SpongeBob: This is your world, my darling

One world

The land and sea

My hope for you for always

Is that your heart will hold part of me

Gary slithered next to where SpongeBob was holding the baby, and he purrs while rubbing his eye stocks on SpongeBob Jr. as he giggles. Soon, Patrick and Squidward arrive on the ship, wearing water helmets. Patrick laughs as he tickles the baby under his chin, and then Squidward steps forward and takes a glance at the baby. SpongeBob Jr. just smiles and giggles which Squidward couldn’t help but smile at.

All: Down to the sea we go

Up from the sea

Down to the world below

Together we come

Forever to be

Under one sun

The land and the sea

The Mr. Krabs arrives on the ship and smiles as he pats SpongeBob Jr. on the head, making him giggle. Mr. Krabs laughed as SpongeBob Jr. clapped his hands, despite not knowing what was going on.

When he stopped laughing, Mr. Krabs said, “Now…SpongeBob Jr., is it?” he then dug deep into his pocket. “I'm giving you this little trinket.” He took out a small shiny silver spatula. “So that you will never forget that part of your heart...will always belong to the Krusty Krab someday as an employee, ar, ar, ar, ar.”

Mr. Krabs pushes a button on the spatula handle and on the mirror is an image of the Krusty Krab while a small tune was playing. SpongeBob Jr. laughed and smiled as he saw what was happening in the image.

But suddenly, a long metal claw grabbed SpongeBob Jr. and pulled him out of SpongeBob’s arms. SpongeBob’s eyes widen in shock as he cried out, “SpongeBob Jr.!”

Laughter was heard as a large metal sphere rose out of the ocean with the claw holding SpongeBob Jr. up in the air. “A party!” a familiar voice said. “So glad I could make it.”

Then a hatch on top opened up and from inside came a familiar single cell organism. “Plankton!” Squidward yelled in shock.

“I didn't miss the cake and ice cream, did I?” Plankton asked with a smirk.

“Plankton, you fiend!” Mr. Krabs yelled. “Surrender that baby, or I'll...”

“Ah, ah, ah,” But Plankton hopped right on top of SpongeBob Jr., putting him right in the line of fire for anything. Plankton chuckled evilly as he tickled SpongeBob Jr. as the baby giggled happily unaware of the danger he was in.

“I know you all terribly missed me these past couple weeks, and I was unable to answer anyone’s calls... but something came up. Now, what was it? Hmm…” As Plankton pretended to think, he jumped onto the railing of the ship. “Oh, yes… I was shish-kebabbed by a sponge!” he yelled at the top of his lungs as Danny and Bernie stared down at him. “One minute you're on top, the next you're lying in bed deflated.” Then he grabbed Bernie by his shirt. “Now, is that fair, dude?”

Then he let him go and shrugged with a smile. “But, whoever said we had to play fair? Hit it, Karen!”

Plankton’s computer wife, who was inside Plankton’s machine, let out a large ray that sparked as Plankton put SpongeBob Jr. in front of it.

“Now hand over the secret formula, or you’ll be serving your future fry cook on the menu!” Plankton threatened.

“Plankton, wait!” Mr. Krabs called out in worry. “You can have anything you want. Just don't harm little SpongeBob.”

“Amazing.” Plankton smiled in triumph. “I get the secret formula for the krabby patty... my revenge... and gain all the powers of the ocean! And it’s not even noon. Not a bad morning.”

SpongeBob looked around, and then looked back at Plankton with his eyes narrowing in determination. He reached down and picked up an ax, which he struggles a bit to hold up until he swings it at a rope that was holding the mast of the ship.

“Heads up!” Sandy yelled as she ducked out of the way of the mast. But Plankton didn’t notice anything until the mast hit him into the ocean, and the claw that was holding SpongeBob Jr. to let him go.

The baby sponge laughs as he flies through the air, but then Sandy grabbed a rope and swung toward her son. But Karen charged up her ray and began to fire it toward the baby before Sandy could reach him in time. Suddenly, Mr. Krabs takes something out of his back pocket which is a golden spatula and he fires a beam out of it which hits the ray.

“NO!” Plankton yelled at the destroyed machine. “It took me months before I could complete that.”

Sandy then grabs SpongeBob Jr. just in time and brings him back to the ship.

“SpongeBob Jr.!” SpongeBob rushed over and hugged his wife and son.

“This isn't the end, Krabs!” Plankton shouted as he got back into his machine. “It's only the beginning!”

“Somebody stop him!” Mr. Krabs shouted.

“You'll never find me!” Plankton continued from inside his machine that went underwater and disappeared into smoke. “But I'll find you...and your precious junior fry cook!

“We shall not rest until that mad pipsqueak is vanquished!” Mr. Krabs said to everyone. “Find him! Find him!”

Later on at sunset, SpongeBob and Sandy waited on the shore as Mr. Krabs, Squidward, and Patrick arrived, looking concerned.

“I'm sorry.” Mr. Krabs apologized with a sigh. “There’s no sign of him. It looks like he’s vanished. But, we'll keep trying. We'll...”

But Sandy noticed SpongeBob Jr. crawling toward the sea and she quickly picked him up. “Sweetie, no!” she gave a moan and said to SpongeBob. “Ohh…you know what must be done.”

SpongeBob sighed sadly and said to Mr. Krabs, “Yes…we've got to keep SpongeBob Jr. away from him. Until Plankton is found, we can’t let SpongeBob Jr. go in the sea. And neither can I.”

“But, SpongeBob, I thought...” Patrick was saying sadly.

“I'm sorry, Patrick. But if Plankton is just as evil as ever, he'll never give up.” Then he took away his son’s spatula that he was chewing on and gave it back to Mr. Krabs. “This is the only way. SpongeBob Jr. can't know about the Krusty Krab or Bikini Bottom...or even you, Mr. Krabs.

“Very well, lad. You're right.” Mr. Krabs sighed and turned around as he began walking away, but then stopped next to Squidward. “Mr. Squidward, I’m putting you in charge of watching over him.”

“What?!” Squidward yelled in shock. “There’s nothing in my work application that says anything about babysitting sponges!”

As the two groups part ways, SpongeBob Jr. peers over his mom’s shoulder to see Mr. Krabs and Patrick heading back into the ocean. Mr. Krabs then stopped for a second and looked at the spatula one more time. “All the waste in money.” And then tossed it into the ocean where it floats all the way to the bottom.

Five years had passed since the day with Plankton. In hopes to keep SpongeBob Jr. safe, Sandy has ordered a wall to be built, separating the castle from the ocean. Everyone was also careful not to mention Bikini Bottom around SpongeBob Jr. (or ‘Junior’ as he liked to be called nowadays).

Inside the castle, SpongeBob was dressed up nice since today was Junior’s fifth birthday. But even though everything was prepared, the only problem was the birthday boy was missing.

“Junior? Junior!” SpongeBob called, looking for his son. “SpongeBob Jr.!” then he spotted Danny and asked, “Danny, have you seen Junior?”

“Not since this morning, Your Majesty.” Danny answered with a shrug.

SpongeBob sighed and went toward the kitchen, hoping to find his son there. He opened the door to find the only cook, Blooregard, inside putting the candles on top of a large cake.

“Blooregard, Junior's not in here, is he?” SpongeBob asked.

“ Nope, nowhere in here,” Blooregard answered, not even paying attention. “But his totally awesome birthday cake is! Five petite candles!” he tried to lick some frosting off, but then nearly fell from the rope that was holding him up.

SpongeBob smiled in amusement, and then left to continue searching for his son. Gary watched him leave from on top of the windowsill. He thought the party was gonna be good, but he also noticed something missing: the guest of honor! Gary then slithered out the window, thinking he knew just where to find him.

Outside the castle and beyond the wall, sitting on a rock in the middle of the ocean, Squidward was sitting as he grumbled to himself, “‘Squidward, watch over him.’ he said. I'm too old for this anyway! Someone of my talent and age should be sitting outside his house, getting a tan...playing sea golf... and sipping ice tea!”

He stood up as Gary slithered over. He started walking through the water, but then tripped and landed in the ocean. Underwater, Squidward sat there with a frown and he shouted, “Not babysitting the spawn of the most irritating sponge on the planet!”

But then, he looked up ahead to see a small square figure underwater wearing a snorkel and diving mask, and flippers on his feet. A scallop swam past him, and then he swam up to the surface.

The figure splashed out of the water in a familiar fashion and took off his snorkel and mask, taking a happy gasp of breath. It was a dark yellow sponge with big blue eyes, one buck tooth, wearing a white shirt, blue pants, and a sailor cap.

“Meow,” Gary greeted.

“Hi, Gary! Hi, Squidward!” Junior happily greeted as he walked on to the rock. “What's up?”

“Meow,” Gary answered with a frown.

“Ha! I think you know perfectly well what is up!” Squidward shouted at him. “Now, come along. You’re gonna be late for the-”

But he was interrupted when Junior jumped in the ocean again, splashing Squidward. Junior giggled and said, “Sorry, Squidward.”

“SpongeBob Jr.,” Squidward began saying.

“You can call me ‘Junior’.” Junior reminded him.

Squidward sighed and continued, “Junior…how many times do I have to tell you? It is expressly forbidden for you to be swimming...beyond the safety of the sea wall.”

He stopped when he noticed Junior imitating him on the lecture he has heard more than a hundred times, and he watched Junior continue in his best Squidward impression, “And any such swimming is a reckless disregard of the rules…Get it?”

Squidward stared at Junior in annoyance and dully said, “Stop that.”

Junior giggled. “Oh, Squidward, I can't help it. I LOVE the sea!” he put his mask and snorkel back on and dived back down into the ocean.

“Hey! Come back here!” Squidward shouted as he tried to grab Junior, but failed. “You're just like...” he sighed and slumped. “…like your father.”

Underwater, SpongeBob Jr. floated underwater as he swam around and picked up a shell. He looked around, enjoying the sea weed and small sea creatures that floated by him.

One of his jellyfish friends swam by him and tipped its stinger to him. “Buzzz!” (Hi, Junior.)

Junior smiled and then a small scallop chirped as he had a seashell in its mouth and put it in Junior’s bag which the sponge nodded and thanked him. Then he swam over a large hole in the ground and spotted something shiny down on the sea floor, and he swam down to get it. When he picked it up, he saw it was long silver-looking shell covered in dirt.

In a cave in the icy wasteland up north, Plankton has been hiding there all these years, knowing no one in Bikini Bottom would ever find him.

“Trust me!” Plankton said to Karen as he tried to fix his ray. “This time I'm sure I've got it right.”

“That's what you said last time,” his computer wife, Karen, said to him. “And that thing just fell apart to pieces like the day you used it.”

“Oh, stop your nagging and fire it up.”

Karen just sighed and sent electricity into the cord that was plugged into her and transferred it into the weapon.

“Yes! Yes! Yes!” Plankton yelled in triumph, thinking he had succeeded this time.

But then, the ray gun suddenly overloaded with electricity and exploded before falling apart. “No! No! No!”

“See?” Karen gloated. “What’d I tell you?”

“Oh, it's just no use.” Plankton sulked as he walked over to his desk. “The power of that spatula is just too much for me to overcome. Even out here after all this time, I still have no customers.”

“Oh yes,” Karen sarcastically agreed. “Out here in the middle of nowhere, there are plenty of hungry customers.”

“What was that you said?” Plankton turned with a glare.

“You heard me.”

“Stop criticizing me! That's all my mother ever did was criticize me! It was always ‘Plankton, do it this way’ or ‘Plankton, do it that way’...or, ‘Plankton, why can't you be more like your 200 brothers!’”

“Well, it isn't anyone else's fault you got no customers. It's yours!”

“Is not!” Plankton childishly replied

“Your fault that we had to hide out here for five frostbitten years,” Karen complained. “Because you just had to get revenge on that sponge you tried to dupe.”

“Is not!”

“Your fault that we can never show our faces in polite society again!”

“You're really pushing it, woman.”

When Plankton was about to continue arguing with his wife, he noticed an image on one of the monitors in his lair. The screen showed Junior sitting on a rock at sea, staring at the familiar spatula that had a bit of dirt on it.

“It's the spatula!” Plankton and Karen shouted in surprise at the same time.

“This is just the kind of break in the ice we've been waiting for.” Plankton explained with excitement. “When SpongeBob's innocent little boy uncovers the secret of that spatula...he's going to have lots of questions. And who'll be right there with all the answers?”

“Obviously us.” Karen dully said.

“Exactly!” Plankton said with a smirk. “He'll be the perfect tool for Krabs's undoing.”

“Oh perfect.” Karen said sarcastically. “Repeat the same mistake you made last time.”

However, Plankton just continued to ramble on in triumph. “And if that kid is as dim-witted and gullible as his father, I’ll be sure to succeed.”

“Why don’t you just shake it up a notch to make it different?” Karen added which Plankton also failed to pay attention to.

“Total domination of the seas!”

While Plankton laughed evilly and ran across the room, thinking about his plan, Karen groaned in annoyance. “Why do I even bother?”

Back at the ocean where the sun was setting, Junior was sitting on a rock, looking at the spatula puzzled.

“This thing kinda reminds me of the thing Daddy and the cook use to make food with.” Junior said, staring at the object. “A spo…chu…lar.”

“Meow,” Gary corrected him.

“Oh yeah,” Junior remembered. “A spatula!”

“Junior, be reasonable.” Squidward tried telling him. “If your father ever found out you'd been swimming out here...”

Junior stood up and got a sad look. “Oh…I know…he’d be really mad.” Then he jumped backwards into the ocean and landed in a small inner tube.

Gary was slithering around on the rock he was on and looking around for something. “Meow,” he said before he started licking the algae that was growing on the rock.

Junior, meanwhile, was floating in the inner tube, feeling relaxed and calm. Then he sat up and looked in the distance. “Uncle Squidward...why doesn’t my daddy like the ocean anyway? I think it’s really nice.”

Squidward just gave a fake shrug in response, and then Junior flopped out of the tube and used it to swim over to Squidward. “You wanna know a secret?” he whispered to him. “Sometimes I pretend I have that…um…what’s it called? The thing you have that makes you breathe in the water.”

Squidward forced a smile across his face as he answered the little sponge’s question. “…gills?”

“Yeah!” Junior smiled as he whispered back to him. “I pretend to have gills.”

Squidward groaned in response and slapped his forehead. But Junior sighed as he continued, “I wish I could tell my daddy. But he might get mad about it. I can talk to octopuses, but not him.”

Gary looked back at Junior and suggested, “Meow.”

“Oh, yes, that’s a great idea.” Squidward sarcastically agreed. “Just waltz right in and tell him you’ve been out here...swimming in the ocean! We could all just have a big party.”

Junior suddenly screamed when he remembered something, “The party!”

“Meow,” Gary reminded as Squidward picked him up and followed Junior back to the castle.

It looks like SpongeBob’s own son has his own share of dreams similar to his own father…even some of his habits.

As you may have noticed, I decided to use Plankton, from the previous story, as the villain for this story also which I tweaked the lines for the role.

Also, SpongeBob Jr. is an OC belonging to Dannyfangirl.

Please review and the next part will be posted soon.
