KidsWBYungsta's Battle for the Animation Multiverse – Chapter 2: When Toons Collide

(Looney Tune Land: Friday at 10:30 p.m.)

Back in Looney Tune Land, Usagi, still dressed as Sailor Moon, was busy telling Bugs how she ended up in the situation she was in right now. Bugs seemed to have a look of genuine surprise when Usagi explained her current predicament as he said, "So, let me see if I have this right: you and your friends were busy watching a movie in your civilian neighborhood when you saw this vortex that was about to suck in one of your teammates, so you decided to spring into action to save her, but you and the others ended up falling into the vortex, which led to you girls falling into who-knows-where."

"Yeah, I guess you could say that," Usagi said as she giggled softly.

"You know, there was something that has been puzzling me since you first landed here, Sailor Moon," Bugs said as he rubbed his chin. "Is this side of you your real personality?"

Usagi blushed for a bit as she cleared her throat and said, "Well, actually, Bugs, this is not the real me at all. You see, I am actually—"

However, Bugs quickly stopped Usagi in her tracks as he said, "Oh, stop right there, doc, something screwy this way comes."

Soon, Bugs and Usagi saw a certain screwball duck with black feathers, an orange beak and orange feet walking up to them, saying in a lisp, "Well, well, well, it looks like Bugsy-Boy here is making the moves on a certain lady around these parts! Hoo-hoo!"

Bugs blushed and laughed nervously as he looked at the duck and said, "Eh, what are you talking about, Daffy? This girl just landed here!"

"Oh, please, Bugs, you can't fool me," Daffy said as he examined Bugs' body language. "Look at you, you're weak in the knees, you look like you have hearts in your eyes and you can't even talk to me normally because of this girl's presence!"

"Daffy, the reason why I'm feeling like this is because you are making these weird conclusions ... that will most likely lead to nothing anyway," Bugs said as he shifted back to his cool demeanor.

"Oh, really, are you scared that Lola will find out about you finding a new 'cuddle bunny'?" Daffy asked in a playful tone.

"Cuddle bunny?" Usagi thought to herself. "Wow, and I thought my friend Minako came up with some weird nicknames back home."

"Alright, Daffy, let's get this straightened out here: first of all, our relationship is strictly based on a fast friendship; second of all, I am a rabbit and she is an actual human, so what makes you think that would even work out?" Bugs said in an indignant tone. "Finally, since you want to make this joke about us dating ... she does have an actual boyfriend back in her universe."

Once Bugs made this final statement, Daffy just looked surprised at the jackrabbit as he said, "Wait a minute, what did you mean when you said 'in her universe'? You mean to tell me ..."

Bugs nodded his head in response as Daffy walked over to Usagi and said, "So, you're not from our universe, eh?"

"No, I come from the Azabu-Jūban district of Tokyo, Japan," Usagi said.

"Japan?! Wait a minute, isn't that where Dexter went for this exchange student program he had in his school?" Daffy asked in surprise.

Usagi just gave a confused look at the duck as she asked, "Uh, if you don't mind me asking ... who is this 'Dexter'?"

"Ah, don't worry about it," Daffy said, brushing the statement off. "You'll know more about him when you live in this multiverse long enough. Anyway, if you aren't a local here in Looney Tune Land, who, just who are you, anyway? One of the new recruits for the Teen Titans?"

"No, I am the Pretty Guardian Sailor Moon, the sailor-suited Pretty Guardian who fights for love and for justice!" Usagi said with confidence.

Daffy looked amazed about the description of this new girl as he said, "A Pretty Guardian, you say? Well, Miss Sailor Moon, I am the Suave Superstar Daffy Duck, the world-renowned celebrity who aims to entertain the masses."

As Daffy knelt down and kissed Usagi's hand, Bugs could only smirk at the duck and say while munching on a carrot, "Eh ... who's the Romeo now, duck?"

Daffy then turned to Bugs and said, "Oh, butt out, long ears! You're just jealous because I possess all the talent around here."

"Yeah, talent that's more suited for a ham of an actor and I don't mean Porky Pig," Bugs said while laughing to himself.

Once Daffy noticed that Usagi was laughing at Bugs' jokes, Daffy finally had enough and got into Bugs' face as he said, "Alright, rabbit, this is the last straw! If this beautiful young lady wasn't here right now, I'd call Elmer Fudd through my speed dial, have him come up here and blast your butt to kingdom come, all for the integrity of the sweet taste of rabbit—!"

"Um, Bugs, Daffy, I don't mean to interrupt, but it's getting late," Usagi said. "Do you happen to know of any local hotels around here?"

"Why, yes!" Bugs said as he grabbed Usagi's hand and decided to lead her to a nearby hotel. "Follow me, I know of a real comfy place you could stay at! Come on, Daffy, help me find this hotel!"

Daffy started to catch up with Bugs as he said, "Oh, you say you weren't crushing on Sailor Moon earlier, but you're going to let her stay at your house, Bugs? Ha-ha-ha! You're a riot!"

Bugs just rolled his eyes as he looked up at Usagi and said, "Ignore him, S.M., just go ahead and get yourself some shut-eye. We'll help you reunite with your friends tomorrow."

"Thanks, Bugs, I just hope they're all okay," Usagi said as she looked up at the moon in the sky.

"It just leads to another burning question in my mind," Bugs said. "Where do you think the other girls would land in this multiverse?"

"Hopefully, they're somewhere safe," Usagi said. "Do you think we'll find them by tomorrow, Bugs?"

"If it takes us to the ends of the Earth, I'm hoping we'll find them soon," Bugs said with a smile. "By the way, you didn't tell me your real name."

"My real name?" Usagi said in a confused tone.

"Yeah, you do have an actual name other than the moniker 'Sailor Moon', don't ya?" Bugs asked with a smirk and a raised eyebrow.

"Well, of course," Usagi said with a smile. "My name is Usagi Tsukino, but I tend to go by some other names, including ... *sigh* 'Meatball Head'."

Bugs just stopped for a moment as he tried to figure out why Usagi would be known as something like that, but then noticed her hairstyle as he turned to the audience and whispered, "Y'know, I'm thinkin' that pigtail hairstyle of hers is the reason why she would get a nickname like that."

(Alfea College: Friday at 10:30 p.m.)

Meanwhile, Ami, dressed as Sailor Mercury, eventually found herself out of the vortex as she found herself laying on the ground of a different universe. She surveyed her surroundings and looked confused about the situation as she asked herself, "What happened? Usagi-chan, where are you?"

Soon, Ami finally stood up and brushed the dirt off of her clothes as she walked around for a bit until she noticed a tall pink-and-blue palace from the horizon, which looked empty. Ami looked at the building in complete surprise as she said in a quiet tone, "Now, there's something you don't see everyday. Who would build a magical palace in the middle of scenic nowhere?"

Eventually, Ami looked up at the entrance and realized this was not an ordinary palace, but a magical building known as Alfea College, the famed school for fairies.

"A school for fairies? Sounds reasonable, but why would there be a school for fairies?" Ami said in a quizzical tone. "Aren't fairies supposed to be aware of their own magical abilities from the beginning?"

Ami decided to do some investigating of her own as she deicded to walk into the building and see what it was all about. As she was walking through the building, she noticed a few classrooms, the cafeteria, some dorm rooms for the students and an auditorium that was akin to the one in Looney Tune Land.

"Wow ... I guess there's more to this school than meets the eye," Ami whispered in amazement.

While Ami was walking through the magical building, she felt something brushing on her leg, so she looked around for a bit until she looked down and noticed a blue and white rabbit

"A blue and white rabbit?" Ami thought to herself. "He kinda reminds me of a miniature Buster Bunny."

Ami knelt down to the rabbit's level and started to pet his head as she said, "Hey, little guy, what are you doing around here at this time of night?"

The rabbit just squeaked and did some random movements, leaving Ami confused as she said, "Hmm ... I guess you can't speak."

The rabbit shook his head as Ami picked him up and said, "Well, I still need to get used to this place because I might be in this universe for a while. Do you mind showing me around this place?"

The rabbit squeaked as he and Ami started to walk through the building, looking through the different rooms and areas that were inside the building. Eventually, Ami started to look at the book about the Animation Multiverse and showed the book to Kiko as she asked, "Hey, uh ... do you happen to know a thing about this book?"

The rabbit took a look at the book, but could only shrug as Ami sighed and said, "Well, I wonder who knows about this book ... surely, somebody has to know about this book."

Suddenly, the rabbit realized that he knew somebody who learned about the book as he tried to find a teenage girl who had red hair and wore a pink shirt, a baby blue skirt and pink shoes. Eventually, he found the girl, who was busy searching for him around the building.

"There you are, Kiko!" the girl said as she picked up the rabbit named Kiko. "Where have you been?"

Kiko decided to take the girl to where Ami was, but when he finally arrived to that area, he noticed that Ami was gone. Kiko just looked confused as the girl said, "So, Kiko, who were you talking to earlier?"

Kiko hopped around for a bit, trying to find where Ami went, but he eventually realized it was possible that Ami suddenly disappeared out of the blue. The girl just giggled as she picked up Kiko and said, "I guess they must've left for now, Kiko."

Kiko could only sigh until he and the girl heard a thud from afar. Piquing their interest, they ran through the halls of the building to find Ami, who accidentally dropped the book while she tried to leave the building. Once she came face-to-face with the girl and Kiko, she blushed in embarrassment and said, "Oops! Uh ... sorry about that, I hope I didn't wake you."

"Oh, no, it's okay," the girl said as she picked up the book from the floor. "Are you a new student around here?"

"Um ... not exactly," Ami said while shaking her head. "I'm not from this universe."

"Oh ... so, where are you from, exactly?" the girl asked curiously.

"Well, I come from the Azabu-Jūban district of Tokyo, Japan," Ami explained. "I ended up in this universe because my friends and I were sucked in by this mysterious vortex that was produced in our universe."

"Oh," the girl said while nodding her head. "What happened to your friends?"

Ami just sighed sadly as she said, "Well, I don't know. From what I can remember, we were separated by the sheer force of the vortex and we probably ended up in five of these random universes."

"I see," the girl said. "Well, if there's anything we can do to help you reunite with your friends, just let us know."

"Thanks," Ami said with a small smile. "By the way, I didn't get your name. What's your name?"

"Oh, my name is Bloom," the girl said with a smile. "I see that you have met my pet rabbit, Kiko."

"I did," Ami said as she softly petted Kiko's head. "He seems like a nice, little rabbit, but it's nice to meet you, Bloom. By the way, my name is Ami Mizuno."

"Well, it's a pleasure to meet you, Ami," Bloom said as she shook hands with Ami. "You know, you remind me of my friend Flora in a way."

"Flora? What makes you say that?" Ami asked curiously.

"Well, you seem to be good with animals, you are more of the bookish type ... and you are rather shy, to a lesser extent," Bloom explained.

"I see," Ami said as she noticed the book now in Bloom's hands. "Oh, Bloom, do you happen to know something about that book in your hands?"

Bloom noticed the book about the Animation Multiverse and look through the pages with interest as she looked at Ami and said, "The Animation Multiverse? I haven't seen this book in about five years! How did you find it?"

"Well, it just randomly appeared in the vortex before I landed down here," Ami explained. "Do you happen to know anybody who knows a thing about this book?"

Bloom started to think about who would know about the Animation Multiverse book, then something came into her head and she said to Ami, "You know something, Ami? I think I know who we can go to! However, I might need to get the help of my friends to find this guy."

"That's alright," Ami said as she and Bloom walked to her dorm room. "I just wonder what your friends are like."

"The coolest group of girls I have ever met," Bloom said with a smile.

(Woodcrest: Friday at 10:35 p.m.)

Meanwhile, in the neighborhood of Woodcrest at a local three-story house, two young African-American males named Huey and Riley were busy watching television in the living room. Well, it was more like Riley was busy watching TV whereas Huey was busy reading a book about the history of Malcolm X. Riley was watching the television with interest and smirked immensely as he said, "Man, Huey, you gotta check this out! Look at all of that bling those rappers are wearing! Man, if I had all of the superfly gear, I would be the flyest brother around this part of Woodcrest."

"Riley, I know you are not trying to put yourself through that situation again," Huey said while shaking his head. "Don't you remember what happened when Thugnificent gave you one of his Lethal Interjection chains?"

"Yeah, but I still got it back, right?" Riley said with a smirk. "That's all that matters, right?"

"Riley, Butch Magnus almost put you in the hospital with all of those times he kept beating you up," Huey said.

"Shut up, punk! See, Huey, that's your problem: you try to use your realism to kill the dreams of everyone else in this neighborhood," Riley said in an annoyed tone. "Didn't you have dreams at one point, Huey? Weren't you the one who tried to be the revolutionary activist, but then you retired once Obama was elected into office? That says a lot about you, doesn't it?"

"Boys! Will you cut that arguing out?" The boys' grandfather, Robert Freeman, said as he walked into the living room. "Can't you two just have a normal conversation without resorting to these shouting matches?"

"Granddad, we weren't even shouting," Huey said while motioning to Riley's direction. "Riley's just naturally boisterous."

"Boisterous? Who are you calling 'boisterous'?" Riley asked in an mock-offended tone.

"Shut up, Riley, you know your brother has a point," Granddad said as he sat down in his chair. "So, what were you boys talking about now?"

"Riley was obsessing over the bling the rappers on TV were wearing and he was hoping to cash in on that," Huey explained.

"Again? Boy, I guess you forgot about what happened when you went up against What's-His-Name, huh?" Granddad said.

"Butch Magnus," Huey said quietly.

"Yeah, Butch Magnus," Granddad said. "Are you trying to put yourself in the hospital intentionally?"

"Oh, come on, Granddad, look at the facts!" Riley said. "All of the biggest rappers in the game today have that ice and it helps them sell records! Think about it—Drake's got all of that bling, Future tends to have his icy moments, Trinidad James has all gold everything!"

"Yeah, and he ended up getting dropped from his record label," Granddad said as he changed the channel on the television. "What's your point?"

Riley just scowled at his grandfather as he said, "Granddad, come on! Don't be a killjoy like Huey! What happened to the Granddad who wanted to live it up, get all the women, be big on appearances, live for the finer things of life?"

"Riley, I hate to disappoint you, but that era is dead," Granddad said. "I just want to live out my golden years in quiet solitude. In fact, I am actually grateful that we didn't have to go on any wacky adventures for the past two years."

"Granddad, that's because we barely did anything in those past two years," Riley said.

"Shut up, boy, you know what I mean!" Granddad said.

Suddenly, the Freemans went silent when they heard a thud coming from outside. At first, they thought it was hail falling from the sky, but they realized they didn't call for bad weather in the forecast. Granddad was curious about what it was and said, "Man, that sounds freaky. Somebody needs to go outside and see what it was."

After an awkward silence, Riley just looked at Granddad and said, "Well, why don't you do it, Granddad?"

"Boy, I can't move as fast as I used to! You know I'm getting up in age!" Granddad said in a defensive tone. "Look, why don't you and Huey go out there and see what it is?"

Riley just grumbled to himself as he and Huey got up and walked outside to see what the commotion was. Eventually, they saw Rei, dressed as Sailor Mars, laying on the ground. Huey and Riley both looked amazed as Huey looked at Riley and said, "Riley, do you know who this is?"

"Man, what does it look like, Huey?" Riley said in his usual obnoxious tone. "I have never seen this chick before in my life! Why? Is she your girlfriend or something?"

Huey just palmed his face as he tried to shush Riley while saying, "Riley, you gotta keep quiet! We don't want to wake her up. Besides, she's probably sleeping."

"Man, I don't care if she's sleeping!" Riley shouted, much to his brother's annoyance. "I can talk as loud as I want to! I will wake the whole neighborhood up by talking this way! All I'm saying is I don't know this chick, I don't know where she came from, I don't know where she lives and I don't know why she is dressed in this sailor girl setup or whatever!"

"'Sailor Girl Setup'?" Huey said with a raised eyebrow. "Man, she looks familiar, but I can't put my finger on it."

Eventually, the conversation between Huey and Riley caused Rei to wake up from her slumber, bringing much surprise to Huey and Riley. Huey whispered to Riley, "See, Riley? I told you to keep it down, so you wouldn't wake her up."

"Whatever, Huey," Riley said. "She's waking up now."

Huey just gave a heated sigh as Rei opened her eyes and said in a daze, "Sheesh, Usagi, you need to learn how to keep it down sometimes."

Huey and Riley both looked at each other and thought to themselves, "Usagi? Who's Usagi?"

Soon, Rei finally realized that she wasn't with her friends at the moment, but she was lost in a different universe: a rather quiet neighborhood where everything seemed normal, at least in her mind. Rei groaned a bit as she said, "Where am I?"

"You're in the neighborhood of Woodcrest," Riley said. "Home of blandness, boredom and too many white people."

Huey just slapped Riley's head in response as he looked at Rei and said, "You'll have to pardon my brother. He's not the best when it comes to meeting new people."

"I can tell," Rei said while rubbing her head. "He was the main reason why I woke up from my slumber."

Huey could only look at Riley and say, "I told you so."

Riley just sighed heatedly as he said to Huey, "Man, shut up!"

"Anyway, back to the topic at hand, who are you?" Huey asked while giving a suspicious look. "Did you just move into Woodcrest or ..."

Rei just cleared her throat and said, "Oh, well, my name is Rei Hino. No, I didn't move into this neighborhood. In fact, I don't even live here."

"Really? Where are you from?" Huey asked.

"Azabu-Jūban of Tokyo, Japan," Rei said without skipping a beat.

"Wait, did you just say Tokyo, Japan?" Riley said. "Huey, isn't she that international pen pal you were writing to at one point?"

"No," Huey said in a blunt voice.

"Well, who are you two?" Rei asked.

"Huey Freeman," Huey said in a smooth tone. "Grandson of Robert Jebediah Freeman, former war hero and a Civil Rights legend."

"I'm Riley Freeman, the other grandson of Robert Freeman," Riley said in an overconfident tone. "But, you can call me Young Reezy, Riley Escobar, H.R. Paperstacks, The Fund-Raiser, Pillsbury Doughboy, Louis Rich—"

"Riley, I think she gets it," Huey said.

"Well, Huey, I'm just letting her know!" Riley said in a defensive tone. "I don't wanna go through my whole life being just 'Riley Freeman'."

Huey just sighed while shaking his head as he looked at Rei and said, "Well, anyway, Rei, do you have anyplace to stay for the night?"

"Uh, no," Rei said in a quiet voice.

"Well, if I ask my Granddad, you could spend the night here," Huey said.

Rei's face lit up with a beaming smile as she said, "Really?"

"Whoa, whoa, whoa! Wait a minute, Huey, where is she gonna sleep at?" Riley asked.

"I think there's a guest room upstairs," Huey said. "If not, she might have to sleep in our room and we'll just sleep in the living room."

"Hey, I don't wanna have her sleeping in my room!" Riley said. "Besides, I'm still having mixed feelings about that after Mr. DuBois had to be stuck in my room."

"Riley, that was just one time and he was possessed by Stinkmeaner," Huey said.

"Whatever, Huey, I'm not gonna do it!" Riley said. "There's an extra guest room upstairs!"

"Riley, do you really know that?" Huey asked.

"Huey, stop playin'!" Riley said in an annoyed tone. "I know that for a fact!"

"Come on, Riley, what if there isn't a guest room upstairs?" Rei asked.

Riley suddenly widened his eyes when he heard Rei's voice ask that question; he slowly started to realize that he was probably being too rash about the situation. Riley just sighed and said, "Well, if we negotiate with our grandfather, we'll figure something out. Just come on inside with us; it's starting to get cold out here."

Huey was surprised to see his brother do a sudden 180 on his emotions. He looked up at Rei and said, "Man, I've never seen Riley act like that before."

"I guess he must've had a change of heart," Rei said in surprise.

"Imagine that," Huey said. "I haven't seen Riley act like that since ... what am I saying? It's rare that Riley actually changes for anybody unless it's someone he really cares about."

Once Huey made that statement, Rei tried to figure out if Riley actually cares about her, despite his obnoxious attitude. She thought to herself, "Maybe he thinks of me as the big sister he and his brother never had, but I guess I'll have to see."

Pretty nice update, eh? It looks like Usagi and Bugs are starting to develop a nice friendship, Ami is starting to become close with Bloom at Alfea and Rei is finding herself in an interesting situation with Huey and Riley Freeman in Woodcrest. However, one question remains: what happened to Makoto and Minako? "Stay Tooned" for the next chapter to find out, folks!
