Chapter the First: Aw Jeezus Another Bad Cars Fanfic

The year was 2018. It was another generic day in the Dinoco Racing and Speed development headquarters. Cars were racing hither and thither, doing important speed things. Strip never truly understood all of the science that went into racing, but he respected those who worked on it. Strip had been retired for a good 12 years now, and was enjoying his time away from the track. He occasionally visited the old development lab to check up on how Dinoco was doing. His VIP (VIC?) access got him just about wherever he wanted to be.

Today, he felt rather adventurous, and decided to have a peek around the top secret development section. When visiting the top secret development section, he was told off by a security SUV,

"Sorry, Mr. The King," said the SUV, "but even you can't go in here".

So, Strip, being the typical responsible role-model that he was, politely apologise to the SUV for bothering him, and decided to snoop around in the medium secret development section instead.

The medium secret development section was a large warehouse on the far side of the Dinoco R&S development centre. The door to the the warehouse was unlocked, and the security SUV let Strip in.

"I don't know what you expect to find in there, Mr. The King," said the SUV, "The medium secret project was abandoned after Dinoco leadership decided it wasn't secret enough. It's just old boxes in there".

Seeing that his boring-sounding description of the of the medium secret section wasn't going to discourage Strip, he quieted down and let the racing legend enjoy his self-guided tour.

Strip entered the giant warehouse, and was greeted by a bunch of old dusty boxes; just like the SUV said (if you want a proper idea of what this place looks like, think of the warehouse from the beginning of Indiana Jones and the Kingdom of the Crystal Skull). Strip drove around and read out the labels on some of the boxes to himself:

"'SpiderMan 3', 'Cars 2 props', 'Scientology', 'Scripts for Cars remakes of all other Pixar movies', 'Despacito', 'Meme Archives', 'Proof that Tangled was better than Lion King', 'The Fast and the Furious: Tokyo Drift'", Strip stopped himself. Clearly everything in here was rubbish created by a crazy person. How disappointing.

While on his way out, one last box caught Strip's attention; "Time Machine". Strip, in spite of his better judgement, decide to have a look inside of the box. Inside of the box, he found the Mr. Fusion from Back to the Future. Suddenly, the Mr. Fusion floated into the air, landed on Strip, and attached itself to his roof.

"What in the world?!", exclaimed Strip. He jerked around violently to attempt to remove the fiendish contraption. He zoomed out of the warehouse, still trying to shake off the Mr. Fusion. While he didn't realize this at the time (since Strip Weathers hadn't yet watched the Back to the Future Movies), "zooming" out of the warehouse was a rather foolish move, as a Plymouth Superbird, the type of car Strip is, is easily able to reach the 88 mph minimum to activate the Mr. Fusion.

Sparks enveloped Strip, and he was thrust somewhere (somewhen?) else in time. Like the Delorean from Back to the Future, Strip left little flame trails where his wheels were.
