Alternate Dimensions
A Turbo FanFiction

A/N: I honestly think the Turbo community is too small. So! I will now begin writing Turbo stories. Each chapter is going to be 1 or more K. And each is its own story unless stated otherwise. With that said, here is the main summery...
M/S: An alternate time, place or 'world' brought about by a different choice in circumstance made by someone or something. That is one way to bring about an Alternate Dimension.
Chapter Summery set in Movie Verse: Chet decided enough was enough. He had made it his job to watch and take care of Theo. But he wasn't about to let himself be dragged down with him...Not anymore.
'Thoughts'
"Speech"
Noises/Unknown
An alternate end.
Part 1 of 3
Chet POV
Chet was of a calm kind of mind, at least… he liked to think so. But this was the last leaf! He just couldn't comprehend how his sweet, shy little brother hand turned into this…this wannabe car fanatic! When had it all started? Chet liked to believe it was because of their father...but, then again…their mother always had liked the 'strange,' as he used to think. Sighing, he distantly heard Theo say,
"Chet. I'm so sorry."
'Sorry?' Chet can't help but remember all the things he missed because he had to take care of Theo… yet he has the gall to say 'Sorry?'
"You have to believe me, I didn't mean for this to…-" Theo began again, 'That's it! No more…' He. had. ENOUGH. Chet turned around and began what would shatter time and space to create a world that under any other circumstances...should never have happened.
"All my life…Heh…Aaaall my life, I've defended you. COVERED for you, stood up for you, APOLOGIZED for you…And for what!"
"I-" His little brother began,
"NO!" Chet interrupted, "Just…just let me finish…I've done so much for you; Theo…Is this what I get in return? To be dragged down with you on your 'sinking' ship?" Chet used his eye sockets to make quotes in the air, as Theo flinched. He knew his little brother hadn't really meant to nearly kill them with the tricycle, but he had kept it all in for so long…He supposed though…that deep down, he was just worried for his little brother. He hadn't always been such a handful… Without even realizing it, he noticed that he had approached Theo and was already finishing up a sentence.
"-on the S.S. Theo! Aye-aye, Captain!" he spat out sarcastically while saluting with one eye socket. "Sign me up!" Theo looked at him sadly, and repeated what was defiantly fast becoming his most hated sentence.
"I'm so sorry." Chet would have twitched had he not already begun to say something else,
"What is WRONG with you?!" he began before Theo cut in,
"I don't know!? All I know is, the other night, I'm standing above the 101, and all of a sudden…-" Here Chet decided he would hear nothing of it, and perhaps, later he'll realize that he should have…for both their sakes.
"NO! It was a rhetorical question!" he sighs and notices that he was right in Theo's face yelling, "I-I just can't do this anymore Theo…" He sniffs and turns his shell to Theo, "I want you to be happy…and if this-" he gestured around to the destruction that was 'The Plant,' with his left eye socket, "is how your happy…then I won't stop you…but…I won't join you in it either…"
"Chet…" He hers Theo call him,
"No, just no…Theo I-I don't really want to see or talk to you right now…just…give me some-"
CAW! CAW!
'Oh no…' before Chet knew it, the world was swinging from left to right and right to left.
"AH! The world is moving!" Chet couldn't help but scream, and he watched as Theo grew smaller and smaller before he couldn't even see Theo at all…
Theo POV
Theo knew he had messed up when everyone just stared at him…but these weren't the normal stares he always got, these stares where like crows pecks, and they hurt more than when some other snail caught him 'pretend racing', and decided he was a freak or 'unwanted'. No, these were worse…much, much worse. Before he could even open his mouth to say ANYTHING, anything at all, Chet-his big brother was already trying to apologize. It warmed Theo right up to his small snail hart when Chet did something like that. But Theo knew…he knew that Chet wasn't going to be able to get him out of this one…not this time. So he watched…he watched and listened to what was going to happen, and he would accept his punishment as it was, even if they told him he was no longer welcome in the garden anymore. He would hold his head up high, and wish all of them a 'snail of a day!' and leave. It was too bad Theo didn't know that his brother was going to get his punishment along with him.
The moment is here…this is a page break… (╯°□°)╯︵ ┻━┻ Enjoy…
Theo couldn't believe his ears…well his technical ears anyways. The boss well their old boss had not only fired him, but his BROTHER as well! 'I can't believe this just happened…' he thought to himself. 'Are they crazy!? Chet's one of the best workers they have! This-this is crazy, no! Insane! They…' It was when Theo heard a sigh that he snapped himself out of his thoughts. 'Chet…' Theo never really liked The Plant. But he knew that being the safety supervisor was Chet's more or less dream. He was always trying (and usually succeeding) in keeping everyone safe. So much so that he was being considered for 'The Council'. Chet himself might not know, or perhaps he did and never said anything…but Theo knew it was one of the highest positions you could reach. As a snail anyways… Theo decided he would try and apologize before anything else happened.
"Chet. I'm so sorry." He said sincerely, he hadn't honestly thought that trying to teach the small human a lesson would end up this badly. Heck, he was lucky he hadn't killed anybody.
"You have to believe me, I didn't mean for this to…-" He tried again before Chet interrupted him,
"All my life…Heh…Aaaall my life, I've defended you. COVERED for you, stood up for you, APOLOGIZED for you…And for what!"
"I-" Theo tried again,
"NO!" Chet interrupted, "Just…just let me finish…I've done so much for you; Theo…Is this what I get in return? To be dragged down with you on your 'sinking ship'?" Chet used his eye sockets to make quotes in the air, as Theo flinched. Chet looked so sad…so, defeated… is this what he had done? He would have rather found out that he had killed somesnail then to see his big, smart, more cool headed brother look so sad, so, disappointed…with him. Theo backed up slowly when Chet began to crawl slowly towards him, he hadn't even noticed, nor did he catch most of what he said, just a little of the last sentence.
"-on the S.S. Theo! Aye-aye, Captain!" he spat out sarcastically while saluting with one eye socket. "Sign me up!" He looked at Chet sadly, he knew it was his fault, and he had known that Chet was close to blowing up before…he just miss-calculated the 'how soon' part. So, Theo decided he would try again, it didn't matter how long it took him, he would make it up…truly he would.
"I'm so sorry." He said again,
"What is WRONG with you?!" Chet asked him incredulously. Now every other snail knows that Theo was usually very quiet, unless it involves cars, racing or otherwise something he really, REALLY likes. But at that moment he realized that he hadn't told Chet what had happened to him at the 101. 'Now's my chance!' Theo thought to himself, 'Maybe if I tell him what happened he'll understand!' with that thought in mind, Theo attempted to tell Chet what happened,
"I don't know! All I know is, the other night, I'm standing above the 101, and all of a sudden…-"
"NO! It was a rhetorical question!" Chet yells at him in front of his face before backing off, 'Perhaps not…' Theo thought to himself,
"I-I just can't do this anymore Theo…" he hears Chet sniff. And Theo watches as Chet turns his shell to him. 'That hurts…' he thinks sadly, 'Chet's never before turned his shell to me…' And in truth, Chet never had, not even when he had the opportunity to do so. Theo had this sort of odd sinking feeling in his stomach as Chet continued to speak,
"I want you to be happy…and if this-" Chet gestured around to the destruction that was 'The Plant,' with his left eye socket, "is how your happy…then I won't stop you…but…I won't join you in it either…" he trailed off, Theo was hoping that this was going where he thought it was going,
"Chet…" He called after him, 'Please don't leave me…'
"No, just no…" Chet mumbled, "Theo I-I don't really want to see or talk to you right now…just…give me some-"
CAW! CAW!
'Oh no…' Theo thought, unknowingly mirroring his brother's thoughts as well. 'Crows!' Before Theo could so much as scream the unwanted word, his brother, his ONLY family left, was being carried away, farther, and farther away… 'No…Not Chet…please not him too…' Theo only thought for a few seconds, no more than 3. But it was enough. For what he will never know, as in that moment no one would truly take into account 3 small little seconds of time.
Another moment is here…this is a page break… (╯°□°)╯︵ ┻━┻ Enjoy…
Theo POV
'This could not be happening. This can't be happening. It just can't be…' These were Theo's only thoughts at the moment. 'Why couldn't it be me? Why not me?' Theo had somehow, all over again, started that wired speeding thing where he swears he .like. . It was ridiculous! Snails aren't cars! He knows that now…But, then why did he sound like one…? He wished he was normal…just plain ol' Theo. Nothing more…Don't get him wrong…he was thankful that because he was so speedy, and…car like, he was able to catch up to the crows and all…but because he WAS speedy…his brother was hurt. How could he have known that knocking him out of the crow's beak was going to throw him hard enough towards the ground that he cracked his shell? How?! Theo just wished that he hadn't taken him so long to get to him. If he had-had just five more seconds…maybe he could have knocked him out of the air instead…
"Don't worry Chet…I'll get us home! And you'll get fixed right back up okay?" Theo talked to his unconscious brother, "Just you wait…" Theo looked around the rather desolate parking area to find somewhere safe for his brother to stay. Just for a little, only so he could look for some kind of caring box or container so he could take Chet home. He had just now thought of putting Chet under the food truck when-CLANK!
"Well, well, well. Buenas noches, little amigos." The man laughs happily, as he uses his hat to pick up the unconscious Chet and a stunned Theo. "This must be my lucky day." The man seems to tell the snails, as he walks towards the food truck and places them on the cars dashboard after getting in. Theo flinches when the load sound of the door closing makes Chet groan, and he wishes that the man would just leave them alone. The man, then uses his cell phone to call someone and simply says,
"Hola. Its Tito." Tito-it looked like the man's name was- looks down at them and says,
"Hey, tell everyone-I'm bringing it." He nodded as he says this. 'I'm bringing it?' Theo thinks to himself as the man-Tito, it was Tito he had to remember,- What was the man bringing? He hoped it wasn't them and it was just something else he had done while not in the food truck. Tito he remembers starts the truck, and Theo gets as close to Chet as he can to try and stop the cars vibrations from making Chet feel worse. The man-Tito, he corrects himself, even though Theo himself sees no actual point in doing so, turns on the radio and pulls out of the parking lot they were in to drive who knows where. Theo wonders if he'll be able to get out of this one alive along with his brother. After all…Crows were one thing, and small humans were another, but big adult humans might do things differently, this man-Tito-ah who cares what his name was anyways? Might decide he and his brother made good escargot! Theo decided he would wait a bit longer to see where this man was taking him and his brother. He could work with whatever was there first.
…
….…
…
Theo didn't know how he did so, but it appears he had dosed off for a few minutes. The Man, as he would now call him. Was just barley taking them both off of the food truck. 'At least The Man was kind enough to flip the cup right side up so Chet didn't fall out…' Theo thought as he tried to take a look at his surroundings. There was a food place with the same logo as the food truck, an Auto body and a 'Hobby' place. Theo made sure to remember that the way the car came in from was from the right of the food place. That meant he and Chet would have to go left from the food place to go in the general direction of wherever they were now, to get to where they were before.
"Agh…" Theo heard from beside him, Theo turned quickly to look at his brother and found him shivering slightly.
"CHET!" he yelled worriedly, "Chet if you can hear me I'll make sure to get you some help…okay? Just hang in there, and don't go anywhere towards 'the light' okay?" Theo tried to joke lightly. Even though all he wanted to do was hide in his shell. 'Chet…' Theo looked up towards the man and then around himself as he heard distant talking, Theo noticed that they were being carried into the Auto Body shop. 'At least it's not the restaurant.' Theo thought sarcastically, 'It can't be worse…I hope.' As he thought this, The Man entered the Auto Body shop and Theo had to blink once or twice so his eyes could adjust, there were light up ahead and it looked like some people were standing in a line waiting for The Man. 'About 8 people…' Theo thought to himself. Just as he finished this thought The Man spoke to the adult humans gathered there,
"Somebody better call the cops, cause' I'm about to make a killing!" the man laughs. Theo felt his blood run cold-er. Perhaps it was best that Theo get himself and his brother out of there. Before Theo could even attempt to formulate a plan, some small adult lady human pulled the cup and along with it them to her, she laughed and said,
"HA! Whiplash is going to eat them up!" 'Whiplash?' Theo though, 'who?'
"It's going to be a slaughter." An elder-like adult said,
"Mm-humm, Dead meat." A younger woman stated.
Theo was beginning to freak out; all he wanted was to help Chet! Was that too much to ask!? The Man passed all those terrible adult humans, and then followed by dropping him and his brother on an odd auto body lift that was styled like a racing track. Theo could see freedom just beyond the humans; if he could just get themselves over there…He was startled from his musings when the Younger Woman threw some kind of…water? On to the race track wannabe, then the Older Man came and placed a…a-a snail? Next to him, he-for he was defiantly more male, was a dark gray almost black color he seemed to have something that looked like an engine where his shell used to be. 'Doesn't he just look haughty?' Theo thought to himself sarcastically.
"A little far from home, aren't you…garden snail?" The dark older snail nearly sneers at him. 'I always disliked snails like him.' Theo thought, before he decided on blocking the others view of his brother. 'No need for him to see my brother so weak.' Theo tried to justify his own actions, in order to block his growing worry. Perhaps it wasn't the best of moves as another snail was placed next to his brother's side, and laughed rather manically or was that menacingly? Before he –for this one was also a male- says,
"Hey! I think we got a crier here." The medium blue snail eyes him. Theo meanwhile, tries not to shiver, while another much, MUCH, bigger snail was placed where the previously dark older one was, and this one- also male- whoops and says:
"Let's do this!"
Another snail, of a red-ish color- female- if he's right, yells out,
"I got this one! I GOT this one!" Theo thinks he sees her chewing…bubblegum? He's not too sure what to think of this one. And finally, (at least he thinks so, for there was no more room on the track) a snail that almost matched Chet's color but with a pink tinge was placed onto the track, he didn't glance his way and all he said was,
"Yhea! Yhea, yhea!-this ones on me!"
What happened next was the strangest moment in Theo's life by far…they were all acting like-like cars! With engines and all! 'This must be how the other snails saw me.' Theo realized, 'like a crazy snail…' He was snapped out of his 'self-discovery' process by the man yelling,
"GO!"
And like the signal it is, the other snails took off, or at least, they would have…should they not have been you know…snails! Theo right now thought they were all crazy, and if they wouldn't listen to him…then they would listen to his speed. With that in mind Theo turned around slightly to look at his brother, whom was still unconscious. 'He's been like that for so long…' Theo thought worriedly,
"Don't worry Chet" he whispered, "I'll be right back, and this time…they'll listen." With determination, Theo revved once more. He was determined to win this, but not for himself… for Chet.

Or maybe you have a prompt for me? Or a short story you want me to write? Review and send it in! I am writing to grow the community after all. :D
