There's a little twist in this chapter. Enjoy! I do not own anything related to "Meet the Robinsons," "Teenage Mutant Ninja Turtles," "Lord of the Rings," or "Star Wars."
I've gotta say this: fighting a Nazgul is even worse than fighting Uruk-Hai; I couldn't find a weak spot anywhere! Off to the side, Carl was trying to look up how to defeat this foul beast.
"Try the head!"
"Can't, Carl!" I yelled back. "I don't even have a sword, plus this thing has nasty breath!" I gasped as the beast was about to scream at me. But instead, it screamed in pain. I turned to my right to see the gentlemen: Berethor of Gondor, Elegost the Dunedain ranger, Hadhod the dwarf, and Eaoden of Rohan, charging for the beast after someone released an arrow. I got out of harm's way since I was NOT in the correct clothing for this type of battle and went over to Carl.
"Where is this hideout anyway?"
"Some big attraction in the Disneyland Resort in your world," Carl replied.
"You're joking! Which one?"
"The Twilight Zone Tower of Terror."
"That kind of makes sense, but why that one?"
"That's the mystery. I don't know." As Carl didn't answer my question, the Nazgul flew away in defeat.
"Are you alright?" Berethor asked, running over to me and Carl with worry.
"Yeah, I'm fine. Thanks for the rescue." Berethor smiled, but then grew serious again.
"So what are you doing here?" Berethor asked.
"Carl here tells me Idrial and Morwen were kidnapped here," I replied. "We came looking for clues."
"That's right," Eaoden responded. "We were fighting some vicious orcs, and all of a sudden, we heard Morwen screaming. A wizard of magic that was not Gandalf got her unconscious, and he did the same thing to Idrial. We turned at the last second, only to see then disappear into thin air."
"As for the clues, I've got them right here," Elegost chimed in as he, being the ranger, took out what looks like a tube and a needle. "We believe the wizard used this to knock them out."
"These were also used by Jackson," Carl announced after scanning the tubes for DNA. "He does this magic well because I cannot identify the substance."
"Can you describe it?" Hadhod asked.
"It originally can kill anyone within a week, but Jackson modified it so that it can only weaken them, but not kill them."
"Black Breath," Berethor breathed with uneasiness in his voice. "It's a sickness carried out by the Nazgul. There is a cure, but it's very rare."
"At least Idrial and Morwen are somewhat okay," I replied. "I might need you guys later. Can you camp here for now and wait until I come back? Time doesn't change when you go to another dimension. After this mystery is solved, you can take off doing whatever you were doing."
"We will do that, milady," Hadhod responded.
"Even though this is my city and my home, and I am worried about Minas Tirith going to ruins, I will wait," Berethor replied.
"Thank you. Come on, Carl. Let's go to Coruscant."
"How? We don't have a remote," Carl asked, and then I paged my dad to open the vortex. We got in, and we landed in a huge hallway in a huge building. I was already in awe with the design; as a matter of fact, it reminded me of the Robinson house. We walked around in the surprisingly quiet hallway, and we found what looked like a library. We walked towards it, and we found a Jedi Master, deep in meditation. I approached him, for I knew him and I thought he could help us with the situation.
"Master Qui-Gon Jinn, it is an honor to meet you here. I'm sorry if I interrupted anything." The Jedi Master got up, smiled, and bowed in respect. I bowed in return.
"There's nothing to apologize about," Qui-Gon responded. "You honor me well and you remember me well. What brings you here to Coruscant?"
"I have a couple questions," I replied. "What's the occasion that makes the hallway so quiet?"
"Anakin's test," Qui-Gon answered. "I believe he is the Chosen One to bring balance to the Force. But he has to take a test to determine if he will be trained in the Jedi arts or not. There is also a gathering in the senate about Queen Amidala's situation on Naboo."
"Okay, and my other question was about your padawan, Obi-Wan. I came with my 'droid' Carl to look for clues." I air-quoted the droid part because, well, he is a robot.
"I found this." Qui-Gon handed me a piece of paper, but I couldn't read the writing. So I gave it to Carl to interpret the note. "I read it, and it doesn't make sense to me."
You seem to not follow directions to stay away from me. So we're going to have a little game. There's a family who's in hiding. But one of the members went away on a 'conference' in a private island to train. A danger was released from that island to his hometown, and the family comes out of hiding to stop this danger.
"We have to guess the movie that describes this," I said. "The answer is The Incredibles. But who's he gonna kidnap? Mr. Incredible?"
"Wait, there's more," Carl interrupted to continue reading.
If you keep guessing the movie correctly, you may find my lair in no time, which is NOT at the Tower of Terror like your robot buddy thought. Guess one movie incorrectly, and it will take you an extra five minutes or movie to find me. And the further the wait, the more likely your boyfriend and the others will be finished off.
"Huh, he must've moved it," Carl thought out loud.
"Was there anything other than the note?" I asked the Jedi Master. "Anything like liquid, dust, food?"
"No, there was nothing else," Qui-Gon responded. "I was having a talk with my apprentice, and Jackson, as your friend calls him, attacked Obi-Wan and defeated him with his magic. Not even the Force could stop him. He was too powerful."
"Can you wait here until I return?" I asked him the same question I asked the men on Middle-Earth.
"I will do so," Qui-Gon replied. "May the Force be with you."
"Thank you." We bowed our good-byes, and I paged my dad to open the vortex to take Carl and me to The Incredibles. We landed on a sidewalk in the middle of nowhere, and Carl and I started to walk somewhere to look for clues...in Metroville.
If you could R&R this story and the prequels, I would really appreciate it! Thanks! :)
