GW: Hello, folks! I'll put up The Demon Kids of ToonCity and The Little Demon Girl as soon as Beauty & the Homunculus and this story conclude. I'll try to finish 'NT' and 'The Mummy' soon as these four stories conclude. And just to let you know, Wormtail96, Romulus and Narcissa will be in this fic. Just guess which part they'll play;)
Hal: On that note, let's get to the chapter where I come in!
Hero: And me as well. Enjoy the chapter!
Enter Hal & Hero
The next morning, Wrath and Samara were still asleep until the truck's engine started. The two woke up groggily, but then noticed the truck was about to run over them. They jumped out of the way in the nick of time as the truck moved onto the busy street.
"There goes our shelter," Sam sighed.
"Let's keep going," Wrath said. The duo walked out of the alleyway and looked at the now awake world of ToonCity.
People were walking and talking everywhere. It was bustling with cars and people. Fascinated at the city life, they walked out and explored.
That's when they heard rap music coming from Jake Long, who was listening to a boom box and dancing to the beat as he walked.
Rapper (from radio): You see the feet walkin' down the street in the fast lane
Walkin' on the street where they goin'
Just makin' a move tryin' to survive
Find a way or not to stay alive
Cool cat in a cruel world
Knows good from bad, his mind is in a swirl
Wrath and Sam then smiled. "Hey! I like this song!" Wrath exclaimed happily while Sam nodded. The two kids then danced to the song as it continued.
Got to look out and open your eyes
If you're in a jam, you got to realize
You're in the fast lane
Chorus (from radio): Wait, wait, wait, wait a minute
Wrath then spun around, Michael Jackson style.
Rapper (from radio): You're in the fast lane
After the song ended, Wrath and Sam stopped dancing and smiled.
"That's a catchy tune," Sam grinned.
Then, a girl with pink hair and pink eyes, wearing a purple hair tie in her hair named Nyuu and her friend Kohta walked past the kids. Nyuu let go of Kohta's hand and petted Wrath's head.
"Um, I'm not a dog, but it's nice to meet you, too," Wrath said warily as Nyuu smiled happily.
Kohta came up to Nyuu and said, "C'mon, Nyuu. Lucy and the others will if worried if we don't go back home." Kohta took Nyuu's hand and started to walk off.
"Kohta, kids," Nyuu protested.
"You can play with the kids later, but, if I don't get you back, I'll have Yuka on my back. Not to mention Lucy, and Nana, and Mariko…why am I living with women who could possibly kill me?" Kohta groaned as the two crossed the street
Wrath and Sam walked after the two teens but were nearly run over by an oncoming car, which honked like mad.
"Watch were you are going, jerkface!" Sam screamed. Then, a Koopa named Bowser was pushing a hot dog cart while ignoring the two kids and singing to himself.
"Hey, watch it, you blue blob! I'm walking here!" Bowser growled at Bloo, who grumbled, "You watch where you are going, mutant turtle," before he walked away. Bowser continued to hum and sang, "Hey, step right up, folks!"
Sam got a whiff of the hot dogs and drooled, "I'm starving, Wrath."
"Let's get some food," Wrath said as they walked over to the hot dog cart.
"Get your hot dogs. Best hot dogs around town!"
Bowser: A lunch-a-dee
"Isn't it a beautiful day? Step right up, folks!" Bowser said.
Then, he started to whistle until he noticed Wrath and Sam, ogling the cart.
"What the-? Hey, get out of here! Shoo! Scram, you little brats!" Bowser snapped.
"Excuse us, mutant turtle!" Wrath said sarcastically as Sam stuck her tongue, but they walked away for a bit. Then, they turned back because the smell of the food was making them hungry.
Meanwhile, across the street, a boy about 12-years old was walking in a cool, 'I'm-so-cool-and-I-know-it' kind of way. He had shaggy brown hair, freckles, green eyes, and rather large ears. He wore a black shirt, torn black jeans, black boots, spiked wrist cuffs, and black shades on his head. On his shoulder was a black wyvern with spikes running down its back, red eyes, and a red bandanna around its neck. The boy was none other than Hal Hanson and his wyvern, Bandanna.
Hal was known for his laid-back attitude and had a charming attitude for the ladies, even if some weren't his age. While he was walking, Hal spotted Renee Roberts walk by and couldn't pass her up.
"Hmm," Hal said, putting his fingers together and smirking devilishly. He hopped onto a taxi and put his shades on.
Renee waited to cross the street when she heard someone say, "Psst. Psst."
She turned around to see Hal lying on the taxi while Bandanna rested on his master's shoulder. Hal made obnoxious kissing noises to her and said seductively, "Hiya there, beautiful."
Renee had a disgusted look on her face as she glared at the boy. She scoffed at him, turned away, and walked off angrily.
"Ooh, burn!" Bandanna laughed. Hal rolled his eyes and muttered, "oh, la-dee-da!"
"Honestly, I'll never know why Rowan likes you, Hal," a girl's voice said. Hal turned to see a girl about 14-years old with short brown hair with blonde streaks and purple eyes. She wore a black shirt with a heart imprint, red and black arm sleeves, black fingerless gloves, green cargo pants, black combat boots, and a black heart amulet. On her shoulder was a green dragon with orange wings, hair, and cuff, and black shiny eyes. The girl was Hal's older sister Hero and the dragon was Bandanna's brother, Sparky.
"Maybe this is why Winter hates you so much," Sparky giggled.
"Take a chill pill, big sis," Hal sighed. "Seriously, you make everything a big deal."
Hero groaned at her brother when Bandanna laughed, "Hey, you guys! Check this out!" Bandanna pointed with his claw at Bowser, who was fending Wrath and Sam off.
"Well, well, well. Looks like Handsome's got some visitors," Hal smirked.
"Poor kids; we should help them out," Hero said.
"While making a profit off of them as well," Hal snickered as he and Bandanna walked towards the situation. Hero sighed, "Why must GW torture me? I could be having fun with Double D or my friends, but no! I'm stuck with my annoying little brother, about to swindle more people."
"She'll settle down eventually," Sparky told you, the readers, while Hero walked behind her brother and ranted at the same time.
Finally, Bowser shook off the duo and sent them flying into a trash can. A banana peel fell of the can and onto Wrath's head.
"Ew! This is not our day," Sam sighed unhappily as Wrath shook off the peel. "What are we gonna do, Wrath?"
"Let's just say you picked the wrong dude to get hot dogs off of, kids," a voice said.
Wrath and Sam spun around to see Hal leaning off against the wall with Bandanna on his shoulder. Hero and Sparky were nearby, looking nervously. At least Hero was, Sparky just stared off into space.
The kids jumped back as Wrath snarled, "You better back of or I'll go alchemist on your butts."
"And you don't want to see my powers, either," Samara added threatingly.
"Whoa! Calm down, you two," Hal said as the foursome walked up to the demon kids. "I don't wanna have to hurt defenseless kids like you."
"What do you mean 'defenseless?!" Wrath said defensively. "I could-"
"Please, we don't want to hurt you," Hero interrupted, as she usually does to keep her brother from getting hurt or hurting others. "My name's Hero Hanson. This is my little brother, Hal, my pet, Sparky, and his pet Bandanna."
Wrath and Sam eased up a little at Hero's friendliness. "Nice to meet you guys. I'm Wrath."
"And I'm Samara," Sam smiled.
"Wrath and Samara?" Hal chuckled. "Those are some weird names for two girls."
"I'm NOT a girl!!" Wrath screamed in rage, startling the five kids.
"Okay, okay. Sheesh, now I know why they named you Wrath," Hal mumbled.
Moving on to his plan, Hal continued, "By the way, I was watching you, and I believe you need some professional help from someone like me. So, why do you say we team up and change that vendor's mind about sharing some of those hot dogs?"
Wrath and Samara looked at each other before they said simultaneously, "No way! Nu-uh, not going to happen! We are not going to go back to that place!"
"Hey, it'll be a snap, kids. I'm an expert at these things. All you gotta do is learn some moves from the master," Hal explained. Hero, Sparky, and Bandanna managed to stifle their laughter as Sam asked, "What do you mean?"
"Moves. Ya' know, tempo. Do-wap-shee-doo, a rhythm. This city's got a beat. You gotta grasp it," Hal explained, "and once you got the beat, you can do anything."
"Really?" Wrath asked.
"Absolutely positively!" Sparky said happily. Hal conked the dragon on his head and pointed to Bowser.
"That turtle you see is known as 'Bowser,' an enemy to all hungry kids with no cash. Our mission, my new friends, is to liberate those all-beef kosher franks and run like the wind. Starting to feel the rhythm?"
"Here we go," Hero grumbled as she pulled out her Everlasting Heart Keyblade and Sparky and Bandanna started to sharpen their teeth and claws.
"Well…" the two demons said nervously. They closed their eyes and they heard the rap music they danced to earlier. "We feel it. We do feel the rhythm!" they said happily with smiles. Wrath looked uncomfortable as he said, "So, when do we get those hot dogs?"
"Right…now," Hal replied before pulling out his Shadow Revenge Keyblade.
The next thing Wrath and Sam knew, Hal and Hero were chasing and swiping their Keyblades at them like crazy people and Sparky and Bandanna snapped and slashed at them. The poor kids were chased right into Bowser by their new partners! While they were making a diversion, which they had no clue what they were doing, the Hanson's and their reptiles grabbed some hot dogs and trotted off. Hero was upset that Hal was going to leave the kids there, but she followed him anyways.
"HEY, GET OFFA ME!!" Bowser yelled at the kids, who were still on top of Bowser. "I'LL GET YOU!!"
"Ah, shuddup!" the duo yelled as they jumped off of the Koopa. Wrath grabbed mustard and ketchup bottles and said, "Eat condiments!" before he squirted mustard and ketchup in Bowser's face. The kids ran off, laughing their heads off while Bowser cleaned himself.
"YEAH, YOU BETTER RUN!!" Bowser said angrily as he threw a mustard bottle at them, but missed.
Later, the Hanson's, their pets, Wrath, and Sam came to a construction site. The demon kids were panting while Hal hummed a tune calmly.
"Hey, you two got the rhythm," Hal mused.
"And what you did to Bowser was hilarious, Wrath," Hero added with a smile.
"Thanks, you guys," Wrath smiled while Sam said. "We were good. When are we gonna eat?"
Hal stopped in his tracks and looked at the two kids. "We?" he asked.
"Uh, duh! Sam and I are starving!" Wrath rolled his eyes.
"Listen, kiddos," Hal sighed. "Hate to tell you this, Wrath, but our little partnership is down to me, my sis, and the reptiles. There is no you or Sammy in this little picture."
"What's that supposed to mean?" Wrath asked in confusion.
"And don't call me Sammy!" Samara added.
"What I mean is, you guys are on your own and this little snack is ours!" Bandanna laughed cruelly. With that, Hal, with Bandanna on his shoulder, stepped onto a moving concrete tube that was being lifted into the air. Hero turned to them and said, "I'm really sorry about this. Remember never to trust people named Hal Hanson!" With that, she, with Sparky on her shoulder, followed her brother as well. The hot dogs were wrapped around the pre-teen's neck, like a scarf.
"Hey, wait a second!" Wrath shouted. "That's not fair, Hal!"
"Fairs are for little brats and tourists, kiddo," Hal yelled back. "Consider this a free lesson in street savoir-faire from me. Check ya' later!" Then, Sparky and Bandanna grew huge; Hero and Hal jumped onto their pets, and the foursome flew off.
"Hey! WE HELPED YOU GET THOSE!" Wrath shouted in fury as the dup went after them. "HALF OF THOSE ARE OURS!! HAL, YOU RIP-OOF ARTIST, COME BACK!!"
"Wrath appears to be mad," Samara said to the readers before they continued their chase against the Hanson's. They snuck onto a girder, were lifted off the ground.
Later, Sparky and Bandanna landed, reverted to normal size and took their place at their master's shoulders. Hal began to walk while humming a tune while Hero just sighed. Then, they both spotted Wrath and Sam up ahead, who jumped onto a traffic horse in front of them. Hal wasn't shocked while Hero said, "Got any plans this time, O Genius?"
Hal smirked at the two kids. "You want these? Well, come and get them!"
Hal: Uh-huh
"But I'm warning you, kids," Hal warned as he jumped onto a car and stood on it. Hero sighed, "Sparky, I feel a musical number coming on," and joined her brother on the car as he began to sing (use your imaginations for Hal's singing)
Hal: One minute I'm in Central Park
The siblings jumped onto another, which passed a billboard with Central Park on it. Hal did a pose and the sibs jumped onto another car as the pre-teen continued.
Then, I'm on Delancey Street
Wrath and Sam jumped from car to car, trying to catch the siblings. The pre-teen and his sis jumped onto a mixer of a cement truck and walked to the rhythm.
Say, from Bow'ry to St. Marks
Unh!
There's a syncopated beat
The duo and reptiles jumped to the other side and rode the mixer.
Like I said woo-hoo, woo-hoo-hoo!
Wrath and Sam got onto the mixer and reached for the hot dogs, only for the duo to fall into the wet cement.
I'm street-wise, I can improvise
The two older kids slid into the wet cement and started to walk on it.
I said woo-hoo, woo-hoo-hoo!
Wrath gritted his teeth at the boy while Samara glared. They looked down to see that they were covered in wet cement and were disgusted.
I'm street-smart, I've got ToonCity heart
Hal got out of the wet cement with Hero lagging behind. Hal put his left hand on a water stream squirting from a hydrant and held the water in as he cleaned the cement off.
Why should I worry?
The older boy switched feet, putting his right foot under the hydrant.
Why should I care?
I may not have a dime
Wrath and Sam walked out of the wet cement sidewalk and glared daggers at Hal. Hero waited at the sidelines, watching her brother with his hands under the hydrant. The younger kids ran at Hal.
But I got street savoir-faire!
Hal unblocked the water system and the water hit Wrath and Sam square in the face, sending them flying backwards. Bandanna and Sparky bursted out laughing while Hero stifled her laughter.
Why should I worry? Why should care?
Hal then walked over a grate from which air was blowing upwards, drying him up a bit. Hero just followed her brother, mumbling, "He's such a show-off."
It's just be-bopulation
Wrath and Sam, now all soaking wet, walked after the Hanson's and got on the grate. They felt the air blowing up and drying them off, but it kind of lifted them off the ground.
I got street savoir-faire.
Mm-hmm
Hal and Hero walked off the grate. Hal then shook himself dry, sending drips of water everywhere. Hero stepped aside and prevented herself getting wet. The foursome turned around and saw something that made them fall over on their backs, laughing. It was an unhappy looking Wrath and Sam. Their long hair was styled into fuzzy afros. The demon kids smoothed out their hair and then leapt after Snoopy, when Wrath started to sing.
Wrath: The rhythm of the city
Sam: But once you get it down
Hal snuck behind a little shop with Hero not far behind. The demon kids spotted the hot dogs and darted after them.
Hal: Then you can own this town
Samara tripped on accident, rammed into Wrath, and they both ran into the shop, which made some of the merchandise go flying.
You can wear the crown!
Hal placed his sunglasses on while a pair of them fell on Bandanna's face. A funny hat fell on Hero, only making her ticked off.
Hal: Why should I
Bandanna: Tell me!
Hal: Why should I care?
Three girls, Blossom, Bubbles, and Buttercup, came to the crosswalk and watched Hal while they admired him. At least Blossom and Bubbles were, Buttercup was just crossing her arms and looking away. As he sang the next part, Hal started to walk in a cool way.
Say! I may not have a dime!
But I got street savoir-faire!
Hal jumped on a piano, which was being lifted by a crane. Hero just shook her head and Sparky flew her up to Hal. Bandanna played the piano while stepping on the keys.
Hal: Why should I worry? Why should I care? Yeah…
It's just a doo-wopulation
And I got street savoir-faire!
Blossom & Bubbles: Everything goes
Everything fits
Hal grabbed a bouquet of flowers and danced while the piano ascended.
Hal: They love me at the Chelsea
They adore me at the Ritz!
On 'Ritz,' Hal threw the flowers at Blossom and Bubbles, who sighed adoringly at him. Buttercup just grumbled while Hero muttered to Sparky, "Flirt."
Wrath and Sam, meanwhile, had followed Hal all the way up to the building and onto the piano he was standing on.
Why should I worry? Why should care?
Wrath and Sam got ready to attack. They lunged towards Hal and tried to grab the hot dogs, but they just missed Hal and fell off the piano, much to Hero's dismay.
Yeah. Even when I cross the line,
Wrath and Sam then bounced off a tarp and landed in a box of tomatoes. Hero sighed in relief as she continued following her brother on Sparky.
I got street savoir-faire!
Hal then hopped onto a different car while Hero got off Sparky and followed her brother. Meanwhile, the poor demon kids jumped onto a skateboard, and followed after the Hanson's
Woo-hoo, woo-hoo-hoo!
Other kids, as they were walking by, saw Hal singing while standing on the car's roof
I said woo-hoo, woo-hoo-hoo!
Woo-hoo, woo-hoo-hoo!
Woo-hoo, woo-hoo-hoo!
The kids ran over towards him. Hal then lifted his sunglasses up, and leaned over, and looked through the windshield. He made a silly face at the driver, known as Homer. "Do'h!" Homer yelled, completely startled. The man came to a stop and the two older kids jumped off the car.
Hal and chorus:Woo-hoo, woo-hoo-hoo!
I said woo-hoo, woo-hoo-hoo!
As everyone besides Wrath, Sam, and Hero sang, some of the kids followed Hal like they were all in a parade.
Woo-hoo, woo-hoo-hoo!
Woo-hoo, woo-hoo-hoo!
The freckled-faced boy then leapt onto a fire escape with his older sister in tow that was in an alleyway. Hal then landed in the alleyway, and passed by three teens known as Tommy Pickles, Chuckie Finster, and Phil Devil. The three teenaged boys sang along with Hal, who kept walking with his sister.
Woo-hoo, woo-hoo-hoo!
Woo-hoo, woo-hoo-hoo!
Woo-hoo, woo-hoo-hoo!
Woo-hoo, woo-hoo-hoo!
The song ended as Hal and Hero continued to walk down the alley to their home. They thought they lost Wrath and Sam. Boy, were they wrong!
The demon kids were watching the teens from a roof-top and stealthily followed them to wherever they were heading.
GW: (passes out from exhaustion)
Hal: It appears the authoress can no longer write anymore due to exhaustion. You knew I was going to be Dodger, right? C'mon; tell me you love me!
Hero: Yeah, sure they do. Next chapter will introduce Hal and Hero's friends, along with three new OCs!
Hal and Hero: R&R!
