Cool. Time for me to catch a princess.

Help, I need to be caught.

Won't you catch me?

Please, choose me for catching.

Chaz.

- Hey, there. Ready to catch me? - I sure am.

Let's see what you're made of.

Oh!

♪♪

Oh no.

I just mean Ace.

My name is Ace Ambling.

Listen, hero, I don't know about you,

but I can play all night.

And I can't wait to be caught.

Catch me, Ace. Catch me, Ace.

Wake up, Ace. Wake up, Ace. Wake up, Ace! Wake up, nerd!

- Luna. - Aah! Thanks for the drool.

What? Huh?

Come on, we're late for practice.

Okay, this play is so simple.

- Ready, everyone? - Ready.

Here we go.

Oh!

What the hell was that?

He was up all night again playing his dumb game.

It's not dumb.

Trying to interface with some video-game sprite named Luna?

Yeah, that's not dumb at all. - She's a princess.

Ace, video games are for losers

who can't win anything in real life.

So, in other words, they're perfect for Ace, am I right?

If you and Baby Ball

can learn how to control forming Ballmaster,

our team can start winning games.

Then, you won't need a video game to meet girls.

They'll be throwing themselves at you.

That's not why I play, "To Catch a Princess."

You don't understand me at all.

Are you gonna finally catch me tonight, Ace?

♪♪

♪♪

I, uh, could let you go. We could play again.

I'm tired of playing games.

Let's make it real. Meet me in person.

In real life?

I've seen you play with the Leptons.

I know you look just like your game character.

And I look just like mine.

Aah!

I don't know.

I'll do it.

But I can't go as Ace. She's expecting Power Ace.

Oh, oh, yeah, that's right, baby.

I'm all ball.

Whoa! Cut it out!

Wait, let me get this straight.

You kidnapped me so you could form Ballmaster

and meet some video-game nerd

you met on the Internet in person,

at night, in a public park?

Aw, don't worry. She's a beautiful princess. Yeah, in the game.

In real life she's an unattractive older man...

If we're lucky.

He's probably some kind of hideous pervert

who's gonna offer you candy spiked with a knockout drug

and then... - Look. See? I told you.

Yowza.

Uh, hello.

I was starting to think you wouldn't show up, Ace.

Luna.

Actually, I'm Ace... The one down here in the crotch.

What's up, baby?

Seeing you in person makes me feel so strange.

Hey, hey, whoa, hey, what's going on?

Hey, quit poking my back.

What's going on?

I didn't mean to fool you, Luna.

But this is who I am when I'm not a Ballmaster.

Any chance you got a sister

or a skanky friend with no standards.

So, you two combine to form Ballmaster?

I'm so sorry.

Do you hate me now for lying to you?

Oh, Ace, don't be silly.

This is exactly what I was planning for.

Wait, I'm sorry. Planning for... what exactly?

Get them, boys!

Aah!

All right, you little twerp,

you're not gonna be late for practice today.

Help, I need to be caught.

Please choose me for catching.

Won't you catch me?

This is so lame.

These frickin' sluts think I can't catch them, huh?

Wha... What's going on?

We're the Ashigari princesses,

and we want to go all the way this year.

So, we captured you to discover the secrets of your Ballmaster.

Release the ball.

Thank you. It's about time.

I'll send help when I can,

but don't let that discourage you

from planning your own escape.

If you could just, ahem, relax your grip a little bit.

You two are going to teach us your secret.

Start by telling us how your form a Ballmaster.

Never. We will never betray the Leptons.

Ace, honey, please. Don't be like that.

If you help us out, you and I can still be friends.

Maybe even go on a real date.

Aaah!

Oh.

No, I cannot.

And I'm not gonna

so I guess this is your classic stalemate, ladies.

Maru, squeeze the ball.

Ow, ow-ow-ow-ow-ow-ow!

Tell us how you form the Ballmaster

or Maru will make you into fresh-squeezed ball juice.

Okay, okay, I'll tell you anything you want to know.

Everything. I'll give you all my money, too. Please.

Oh. There's no trick to it, we just fly together.

Try it. I don't know.

I do not like to be humiliated.

Maybe it's me. I'm special. Let me try, please.

When they come together to form Ballmaster,

the ball winds up in Ace's groin.

So, I guess, try there first, but on Maru.

Uh, o-okay. Well, you know, I guess, we tried.

Aah!

Maybe Ace is the key. Spritle, try it with him.

Sorry about this, Ace.

Gaz? Gaz?

Could you quit bothering me?

You've been playing that thing for 12 hours.

You should probably eat or at least go to the bathroom.

Wait, where are Ace and Baby Ball?

Haven't seen them since yesterday.

Uh-oh, the Ashigari princesses.

Please, I'm begging you.

At least try pushing me into Luna's groin.

Why isn't this working?

Listen, Ace, I don't want to hurt you anymore.

Please, show us how you and the ball form Ballmaster.

I won't.

Aah! I will. I thought you'd never ask.

Luna, throw me!

No!

Team rumble. No rules, no be-ho.

No points. Just a body count.

Gaz.

Ballmastrz.

♪♪

Aah! Ballmastrz.

You are so boned now.

Ballmastrz.

Have I been naughty, Ace.

Are you gonna punish me?

Not again, Ace. Come on.

Think about your grandmother.

Ballmastrz.

Come on.

Let's get out of here before someone calls the cops.

- Yeah! - Yeah!

Whoo-hoo!

♪♪

Oh.

Let's see what you're made of.

Catch me, Ace. Catch me, Ace. Catch me, Ace.

I will catch you again, my princess, one day.
