An Experimental Viewfinder For History (Mad Scientists/Bubbanap?)
Bubba was absolutely enamored by his latest findings, his research partner Catnap, meanwhile was asleep. Which makes sense since he provided quite a lot of research samples of Poppy Gas. But Bubba had to wake him up. "Catnap! You've got to see this!" Bubba shouted at the sleeping feline, shaking him awake. Catnap bolted upright when he got woken up, annoyed at first, but then remembered what they were doing in the first place. "Did any results come through?" Catnap said to Bubba, half groggy. Bubba only replied with a wicked looking smile as he nodded slowly...

The Smiling Critters were in their usual routine of listening to Miss Delight go on about history again. The only thing unusual for today was that Bubba and Catnap weren't in their usual seats but instead sitting down on chairs at the front of the classroom. Miss Delight paid this no mind for whatever reason and simply continued with the lesson. Of course the two usually uninterested in history, Kickin and Hoppy, kept making their opinions clear by snoring, sleeping, or just plain ignoring the lesson. While the rest had been either doing the same or attentively listening. After the lesson, Catnap and Bubba went to the rest of the Smiling Critters with an offer. "Me and Catnap had been working on something experimental, and I think its a way for you guys to finally learn history in a fun way." Bubba says to the group. "What's the experiment about? What's the process of it all?" Dogday replies, slightly anxious over what the duo had been working on. "Well with a combination of Catnap's Poppy gas, and some music. We could alter your dreams to view what history had looked like from when it had happened!" Bubba excitedly exclaimed. The group then talked with each other in a huddle, the whole idea sounded pretty fun but they didn't know what they were gonna get themselves into, but with a little bit of debating, they agreed to the experiment.
The Smiling Critters had found themselves inside of a barebones room, with big air vents everywhere and a large one way mirror where Catnap and Bubba are gonna be viewing the experiment from, along with a few of the Nightmare Critters with their instruments. After a few minutes Bubba started speaking into the microphone. "Okay, the testing is gonna start now." The Smiling Critters readied themselves as red gas started flowing into the room, and music started playing courtesy from the Nightmare Critters...

In the heart of Holy See
...
In the home of Christianity

The Seat of power is in danger
...
There's a foe of a thousand swords
...
They've been abandoned by their lords
...
Their fall from grace will pave their path, to damnation

Dogday opens his eyes, with lots of memory and exposition dumping flooding the inside of his head. Side by side with his fellow brothers and sisters in arms, the Swiss Guard. They will defend from the imperial attackers rushing in while they stand and fight right in front of St. Peters at the obelisk. He looked around to see his friends among the 189 others who will give their lives in service for the pope. And those friends were Hoppy, Kickin, Crafty, Picky, and Bobby, and they were all at the side lines, to make sure that no enemy would be able to ambush them from the side. They steeled themselves ready, as the hordes of soldiers rushed forward when they readied their halberds...
...
Then the 189
...
In the service of heaven
...
They’re protecting the holy line
...
It was 1527, gave their lives on the steps to heaven
...
Thy will be done!
...
For the grace, for the might of our lord
...
For the home of the holy
...
For the faith, for the way of the sword
...
Gave their lives so boldly
...
For the grace, for the might of our lord
...
In the name of his glory
...
For the faith, for the way of the sword
...
Come and tell their story again
...
The fighting was rough and brutal. Them and their fellow soldiers had done their best, but the numbers were always stacked against them. And slowly, they were getting pushed back and more and more of them were falling to the hands of the enemy. Dogday was thinking about if they are unable to fully defend for long enough then the pope may not be able to escape. So counting Dogday, Hoppy, Kickin, Crafty, Picky, and Bobby, and 36 others had made a long enough distraction to run towards the Pope,..
...
Under guard of 42
...
Along a secret avenue
...
Castel Saint'Angelo is waiting
...
They’re the guard of the Holy See
...
They’re the guards of Christianity
...
Their path to history is paved with salvation
...
Dying for salvation with dedication
...
No Capitulation, annihilation
...
Papal commendation, reincarnation
...
Heaven is your destination
...
...
In the name of god

The last of the Swiss Guard including the Pope and those closest to him finally made it to Castel Sant’Angelo, safe at last. The remaining guards were Dogday, Kickin, Hoppy, Crafty, Picky, and Bobby. With them they were able to hold their position for long enough until the barbaric invaders would leave Rome. The Pope alongside the last of the swiss guard had mourned the losses of not just the Swiss Guard, but for all who fell...

Gave their lives so boldly

Come and tell the Swiss guards story again

The group woke up after the horrific and realistic dream that they all witnessed and experienced, now having a new understanding and perspective of history and how you should view the past and change from it. "All right, after a short break, we are gonna move to the next scenario. Since we have 7 more songs that we can test on." Bubba said through the speakers, making the rest of the Smiling Critters terrified for what's to come, yet determined to see it through.
