This is going to be a Shark Tale and Bug's Life crossover. I know it's stupid and utterly pointless,but sometimes I just create things out of the blue when I'm bored. Plus you'll never know; the characters might have similar personalities---remember that. Disclaimer: Bug's Life is owned by Disney/ Pixar and Shark Tale is owned by Dreamworks. (And yes this also happened before Bug's Life and Shark Tale).
Hopper and his grasshopper gang were heading back home to the sombrero from Ant Island where they collected the food,and the gang passed by the ocean, and Hopper decided that he wanted to 'go for a swim' and 'take a good look at it'. Instead,Hopper wanted one of the grasshoppers to go down there and bother the fish. Of course,he wanted Molt to go down there---mainly because he liked to torture him.
"No way! I'm not going down there." Molt said,looking at the depth of the ocean.
"What are ya? Chicken?" Hopper smirked,making his arms look like wings. "Bawk,bawk,bawk."
Tessa smacked her hand agianst her face, "Hopper---" She said in a disapproving tone.
"I'm not a chicken!" Molt retorted.
"Prove it." Hopper replied.
"Hopper,stop teasing him. He said he doesn't want to go down there." Tessa said.
"Who put you in charge?" Hopper challenged. "I'm the one in charge here."
"Excuse me,boss,but uh...the water is too deep and there's a possibility that we'll drown." Axel said.
"Nobody asked for your opinion." Hopper said. "I just want to see Molt do it."
"I'm allergic to water." Molt lied,thinking that it will fool Hopper. Tessa sighed.
"Of course you are." Hopper said sarcastically. "How stupid of me."
By the tone of sarcasm,Molt thought, "darn." One of those days,he wished that Hopper would be nice to him.
"Are you sure it's safe,Hopper?" Loco questioned, "there are dangerous fish in the ocean."
Hopper ignored Loco. And to Molt he said, "do it."
Molt put a horned toe in the water and shivered from the coldness of the ocean. He hesitated and he looked at Hopper and the rest of the gang. Then he looked at Tessa with a 'please help me' look;Tessa looked at Molt apologetically.
"Well? What are you waiting for? Go deep down in the ocean." Hopper urged.
Molt sighed,hating being close to the ocean,he felt like he has hydrophobia. Molt gulped,took a deep breath and dived in the ocean.
Hopper smirked,imagining the thought of Molt being eaten by sharks or any other fish that eats bugs. Tessa glanced at Hopper,who was smirking with satisfaction. She walked over to him and whacked him in the head.
"Ow!" Hopper growled,rubbing his head. "Why did you do that?"
"You promised mom about not killing Molt. It looks like you don't care what you told mom and it feels like you're taking advantage of her." Tessa scolded.
"If Molt dies then it's going to be the fishes' problem,not mine." Hopper retorted.
Tessa put her hand to her face and shooked her head. "You just don't understand,do you?" She mumbled.
A great white shark with emerald green eyes,and his brother,Frankie were outside to hunt and eat fish on their own. Frankie gives Lenny instructions on how to hunt prey.
"Fish are a shark's treat." Frankie said to his younger brother, "not only that,but puny little fishes are insignificant."
Lenny sighed,thinking that Frankie is wrong about the fish. Fish,to Lenny, aren't meant to be treated like that---that's why Lenny liked being a vegetarian. Lenny calls himself the 'good sea creature' while Frankie calls him 'the traitor to all sharks'.
"I don't think they're insignificant." Lenny retorted.
"Excuse me?" Frankie challenged angrily,not liking what Lenny said.
"Why are we treating fish like this? They're living creatures too,you know." Lenny replied.
Frankie sighed, "Look,it's not really that hard. And besides,being a vegetarian is boring."
"Says you." Lenny said.
"Just try to eat meat,okay?" Frankie said.
"Fine." Lenny said dully.
Lenny swam up to the surface of the ocean,hating the fact that his brother is making him eat meat.
Molt was in the ocean,holding his breath and looking at the environment of it.
"Wow the ocean is big." Molt thought,amazed since he wasn't sure if he should talk while in the ocean. "But it is freezing down here. I don't know how anybody can be down here."
Molt suddenly heard some movement behind him he looked behind him and saw a great white shark coming. The shark came up to Molt with his mouth open. Molt put his arms over his head,preparing for the death,but he didn't feel anything surround him. Instead,the shark said, "Hi! I'm Lenny. What's your name?"
"Huh?" Molt frowned but smiled and said, "Hiya Lenny,I'm Molt."
"Why are you called Molt?" Lenny asked then he saw a piece of skin falling from the grasshopper. Molt was about to speak why he was named that way and Lenny said, "never mind. What kind of fish are you?"
"I'm a locust,not a fish." Molt said.
"Oh you're an insect! I see." Lenny said. "So what are you doing in the ocean when you're supposed to be on land?"
Molt sighed, "it's a long story. You see,me and my brother and sister,Hopper and Tessa and the rest of the grasshopper gang were flying back to the sombrero until we saw the ocean like this one." He indicated the ocean. "And we came to check it out and Hopper forced me to come down here,and when I told him no he said, 'what are you? Chicken?' And he mocked me and so here I am. But Tessa tried to stick up for me."
Lenny shivered, feeling sorry for Molt. He knew what it felt like to have a mean brother."My brother is mean too." Lenny said sadly. "My brother,Frankie likes to accuse me of things and he thinks of me as his punching bag. Frankie bullies me almost everyday and enjoys every minute of it. He wants me to eat meat,but I don't want to."
"Why don't you want to eat meat?" Molt questioned.
"You'll laugh when I tell you." Lenny said.
"No I won't." Molt said.
"Yes you will." Lenny said.
"No I won't."
"Yes you will."
"Will not."
"Will too."
"Will not."
"Will too."
"Will not."
"Will too."
"Will not."
"Will too."
"Will not."
"Alright I'll tell you!" Lenny said impatiently then calmed down and said, "I-I'm a vegetarian." After Lenny said that,he closed his eyes and opened them again. Instead of Molt laughing,he raised an eyebrow. "Okaaay?" Molt said slowly.
"Is it a problem?" Lenny said. "Because you must think I'm really stupid."
"No no no." Molt said quickly, "it's not stupid,but a shark being a vegetarian must be really weird."
Lenny glared at Molt. Molt noticing the glare said, "shutting up." Then Molt gasped for breath and Molt quickly said, "I'm going to introduce you to my brother."
"Yeah I'm going to go get Frankie." Lenny said. Molt then swam up to the surface and Lenny swam away.
Hopper was tapping his foot,waiting for Molt to cower and come back on land. "What's taking him so long?" Hopper said impatiently.
"Molt is probably trying to deal with the sharks." Axel shrugged. "Sharks are really dangerous."
All of a sudden,Molt came out of the ocean,all wet and panting from being down in the ocean for so long. "A shark---vegetarian." He panted.
"Huh?" Hopper said.
"There is a shark down there that's vegetarian and he, too, has an older brother that's mean." Molt said.
"I guess I'm not the only one that likes to bully my little brother either." Hopper thought then said, "I never heard of a vegetarian shark."
"Neither have I." Tessa said.
"It's true,follow me." Molt said.
Hopper sighed, "okay." and to the gang he said, "All of you guys can come too if you like."
The grasshopper gang backed away slowly from the ocean.
"Alright suit yourself,big babies." Hopper said then turned to Molt. "Alright,lets go."
Hopper glanced at Tessa. "Tessa? Do you want to come too?" He asked.
Tessa looked at the rest of the gang,then backed away.
"I'll take that as a no." Hopper said. Then he and Molt took a deep breath and jumped in the ocean.
Frankie was smiling evilly behind the rock,looking at the tiny fish,preparing to eat it. Frankie got behind the fish and was about to eat it until someone shouted, "Frankie!" Frankie growled and said, "What?" The tiny fish looked behind him and saw the great white shark standing behind him. The tiny fish screamed and swam away from Frankie.
Frankie growled angrily and he turned slowly to look at Lenny.
"What do you want? You ruined my chance of eating the puny little fish." Frankie said angrily.
Lenny didn't listen he said, "A locust came to the ocean."
"Grasshoppers." Frankie thought suspiciously then said, "I don't believe you."
"I'm telling you,Frankie! There is a locust in the ocean." Lenny said.
"Locusts? In the ocean? Give me a break." Frankie scoffed,rolling his eyes.
"I'm serious! Follow me." Lenny said.
Frankie followed Lenny to the other side of the ocean.
Molt was leading Hopper to the middle of the ocean where he seen Lenny. And he saw Lenny appearing with another shark that looked tough and mean.
"This is my brother,Hopper." Molt said to Lenny and Frankie.
"This is my brother,Frankie." Lenny said to Hopper and Molt.
"Hi." Hopper and Frankie said at the same time.
Frankie then looked at Lenny and whacked him in the head.
"Ow! Hey! What was that for?" Lenny asked,rubbing his head.
"For ruining my chance to eat the fish." Frankie said.
Molt shooked his head,disgusted while Hopper laughed at what Frankie did. Hopper then hit Molt in the head.
"Ow!" Molt said,rubbing his head. "You're mean!"
"That's the spirit,Hopper!" Frankie said. Hopper and Frankie high five each other.
"I like torturing my little brother too." Hopper smirked.
"Hey who doesn't?" Frankie said.
Hopper noogied Molt while Frankie noogied Lenny. "Ow! Stop it! Stop it! Stop it! Stop it!" Lenny and Molt said at the same time.
"No!" Hopper and Frankie said at the same time.
"We told you to stop it!" Molt said. "Yeah!" Lenny said.
"Fine." Hopper and Frankie said at the same time and they let go of their younger brothers.
Hopper and Frankie high five each other again and talked about what they do to their younger brothers.
"See? I'm Frankie's punching bag." Lenny said.
"I'm Hopper's punching bag." Molt said.
"We sure do have mean brothers,don't we?" Lenny said.
"Yep." Molt agreed.
Review and tell me what y'all think! I know it seems odd that Hopper and Molt can talk underwater,but I had to get them to talk. And I know that Molt and Hopper breathing long underwater is far-fetched and weird. But like I said,Hopper and Molt have similar personalities as Frankie and Lenny. I might write a next chapter---but what should I write for the next chapter?
