These will be the first of what I hope to be many short stories featuring the cast of Animaniacs. They do not follow the canon of my main story, The Warners That Time Forgot (except for maybe one idea I had).
As always with these things, this is a fan fiction and all of the characters contained within this story remain the property of WB and Amblin. Hopefully I shouldn't get sued now.
The Warner Bros. Lot in sunny Burbank California is the focus of this little cold opening. A sunny, happy place where, as usual, the three zany Warners: Yakko, Wakko and Dot, were causing havoc around the lot with their zany brand of comedy.
They had just finished invading the set of a Channing Tatum movie (Dot's moved on from Mel Gibson after he went a bit crazy) and were escaping. However, suddenly the sky turned grey. The change in wind brought a wave of tension and uncertainty to the lot, as everyone peered up in the sky to see why the weather changed so suddenly.
"That's strange. They said we're in a heatwave," Yakko noted
A roar of thunder bellowed throughout L.A which gave everyone the feeling that this was going to be no ordinary story
Wakko whispered something in Yakko's ear. Yakko frowned at him saying, "Again? You know this joke is getting kinda old."
"Hey, when you gotta potty, you gotta potty," Wakko said folding his arms.
Dot looked up at the sky and started seeing something falling, "Hey guys, look, up in the sky. Is that rain?" Dot wondered
"Doesn't look like rain, we must be getting a hailstorm," Yakko replied.
The object wasn't raindrops or hailstones. It was perfectly clear what was falling out of the sky, were big, massive… SHARKS!
The sharks were falling to the ground bouncing off the pavement; the masses panicked and ran in terror as the unimaginable was happening. Meanwhile, the Warners were just standing there looking dumbfounded.
"This is too stupid even by our standards," Yakko said to the audience
Suddenly, a generic male character ran towards the audience and started saying some really cheesy and poorly spoken dialogue. "Hey you kids, you better get out of danger. It's not safe here."
"You got that right. Your acting is terrible," Yakko said smug
Then one of the sharks bounced off the ground and flew right and the man and the Warners. "Oh no!" the man said. "It's coming straight for us."
"You don't say." Dot said sarcastically
"Don't worry puppy children, I'll save you with THIS!" he then pulled out a chainsaw from god-knows-where and started charging at the shark.
"YAHHHHHH!" the man leapt into the air, into the shark's mouth.
The Warners cringed at the horrible sight they saw. The man and his chainsaw had been eaten
The Warners looked straight at the camera, "Can we please get out of this low budget nightmare and move on to the cartoon?" Yakko pleaded. And that's exactly what happens as we fade out to the main cartoon
Watch The Birdie
Written by Warner Guy
A white van speeds down a coastal highway, leaving the city limits of Burbank. But where exactly is this white van going and why are we so concerned with it anyway?
Eventually the white van stopped and the driver stepped out of it. The driver happened to be Thaddeus Plotz, with Ralph the Guard climbing out of the passenger seat (which caused the van almost to tip over). They opened the back door to take out a sack tied-up at the top and threw it over a very fancy brick wall. "There, when they return to the lot they'll have finally learnt how to be respectable children," Plotz asserted to himself. With that, the white van sped off back to the WB lot.
The sack started to wiggle and wobble, and then, scissors poked through from the inside, and started to cut a hole in the sack. When they hole was cut the three Warner siblings tumbled out looking confused as to the whereabouts of their location.
They looked around, as a large panning shot by the camera revealed they were on a golf course; and not just any golf course, but the prestigious Pebble Beach Golf Club.
Yakko got very annoyed, "Golf? How boring can we get?"
Dot thought about it differently, "Now come on Yakko, golf isn't really boring. It's a game of skill and finesse that is a test of patience and poise. It makes me want to break out in a cute little song"
Suddenly, Dot rushed off screen as music starts to play. Wakko looks at Yakko who shrugs his shoulders and him.
Dot then emerges again, this time in a golfing outfit (like the one from the PC game) and starts to sing a song
#I can swing with the swingers and I'm havin' a ball#
#I always go for the green and I-#
Yakko interrupts, "Ah Dot? You can't sing a song."
Dot steams up, "And why not?"
"We blew the budget on the Sharknado parody earlier."
Dot pouts and taps her foot
Wakko is puzzled, "Those shark effects didn't look expensive to me."
Yakko wittily replied, "It was less expensive then the cheesy rubber shark Spielberg used."
"Well if no one is going to appreciate my song then I'm just gonna- HELLO NURSE!" Dot spotted a hunk off in the distance. The hunk glitters (thanks to a camera effect). She immediately runs in a cloud of smoke to the hunk
Suddenly, out of nowhere, Bob Hope approaches Yakko and Wakko, still standing in the same spot they had been before the song. "Hey, I tell ya, your crazy sister has got no chance against him."
"In golf?" Wakko asked
"No. In love. You see, that there's Tony Forest, but everyone calls him Leopard. He's been in some deep trouble with his former wife and he swore that he would never fall in love again. Isn't that wild?"
"Uh oh, we better save Dot then," Yakko said concerned and he and Wakko immediately set off to catch Dot
But it was too late. As Leopard went to take his tee shot on the 18th hole Dot was already staring right in front of him, which meant he couldn't take his swing.
"Um, can I help you?" Leopard asked puzzled
Dot then leapt up into his arms, "No but I can help you find the cutest girl in the world."
Leopard then struggled to push Dot off, who was clinging to his manly chest. Eventually, after a little bit, she fell off. Leopard responded to Dot, "Sorry, I'm not interested in her."
Leopard then took his tee shot and walked off. Dot said to herself, "I love when the hunks play hard-to-get." Just as Wakko and Yakko arrived Dot sped off again in a romantic skip.
"I haven't seen Dot this worked up over a guy since she bumped into Justin Timberlake," Yakko noted
"You mean last Tuesday?" Wakko replied
"Ahhhhhhhh, yeah." Yakko said. "Come on."
Leopard had ended up on the green and had about a 5-foot putt to get in the hole. He achieved that no problem. Suddenly, confetti guns blew up all over the place, showering the green with confetti.
"Congratulations!" Dot said wearing a game show outfit, "You've won the longest-putt tournament. And you're prize is… ME! (She lept into Leopard's arms again) The cutest girl in the world!"
"Ummm." Leopard got nervous and confused
"Come on. How about a kiss?" Dot then gave a big smooch on Leopards lips. Leopard then made a spewing sound and started to spit everywhere.
"What are you? Some kind of sicko!"
"No, I'm just Dot, and I'm as cute as a button too!" She grinned
"Don't you know who I am? Go away and stop doing... whatever it is your doing!" Leopard stormed off into the clubhouse. He then marched back, "And you're not cute either!"
As Leopard angrily walked away Dot ended up with big tears welling up inside her eyes as Yakko and Wakko arrived to try and make amends.
"That poor selfish man," Yakko shook his head
"I know I have an anvil in here somewhere," Wakko said searching through his gag bag.
Dot is filled with rage, "Just you wait brothers. He's gonna get it (Dot took some dynamite and bombs from off screen) And I'll show no mercy! No one says I'm not cute and gets away with it!"
Bob Hope appears again. "Hey. You might wanna put that there dynamite away. I know of another way you can get even." He point to a huge sign that says: "TOMORROW: ACME PEBBLE BEACH PRO-AM"
"Well, good luck with whatever you decide. You wild crazies." Bob left the golf course.
"You know, Bob might have a point there," Yakko said with all three siblings starting to grin
"We'll teach him not to mess with Dot!" Wakko said
"Yes. And I have the perfect plan to do it," Dot said with an even bigger grin on her face
"What do you have in mind?" Yakko asked
"You'll just have to wait and see after these messages," Dot said to everyone. Including the audience. Stay tuned for Part 2!
