~~The floorboards creaked underneath their paws, a small splintering sound coming from some of them. The creaking got louder, as well as the splintering noise, until the floor beneath their paws snapped and they fell through
The quiet echo of dripping woke the youngest Warner. She meekly rose her head before trying to lift herself off the surprisingly soft ground. A groan to her left caught her attention. The room was too dark to see anything, their flashlights having been lost or destroyed.
Cold air buffeted her in the face, the sound of movement emanating from a foot away from Dot. She shivered, hoping that her eyes would adjust faster than the other creature. Fear had taken a small hold of her since their arrival, everything happened so fast. Arrive, explore, fall off stairs, lose Yakko, find Yakko, fall through floor.
"Dot? Yakko? Anyone there?" Wakko's voice was quiet and fearful, probably lost without his siblings. Dot tried to reach over to him, blind in the darkness.
A large ceiling light flickered on, barely illuminating the room. Dot found Wakko a foot away, giving a small leap to her older brother. Wakko kept his eyes at the spot Dot used to reside, hoping that everything would be okay.
Dot turned around slightly, seeing Yakko at the spot she sat previous. Her eyes widened and she scooted closer, Wakko following suit. She lifted his head to her lap, getting a better angle to check his vitals.
"He's a toon, he shouldn't die or get hurt this easy," Dot muttered, placing her fingers on his neck. The room was silent, the strum of Yakko's heartbeat giving a small sense of relief to her.
"Is he-"
"He is still alive. Don't say that word, Wakko," Dot interrupted, not wanting to her the word she dreaded most. Well, most after the word Dottie.
The door that none of the Warner's decided to acknowledge opened, revealing Dr. Otto Scratchensniff and Hello Nurse. They walked in, hovering above the Warners.
Yakko opened his eyes, a groan escaping his lips. When his surroundings finally were clear, he gasped and sat up. Pain shot through his body but he didn't care.
"What are you two doing here?" He asked, the other Warners finally noticing the humans.
"Vell, Yakko, ve came here to get you tree back for all of ze vexation you have caused us. Ve never meant for it to go zis far," Dr. Scratchy responded, a guilty look in his eyes.
Yakko's face went blank. his siblings responding the same way. Dot and Wakko helped Yakko to his feet and led him out the door. They made their way to the Water Tower, preparing an even nastier plan for the pain caused on this day.
Dot started making snacks while Wakko tended to Yakko, making sure he was fine. He had a fractured leg but other than that Yakko would survive. They stayed silent and ate slowly, even Wakko. They all had their own plans for how to respond to something like this.
"Just wait until Part Two! You get to help us get everyone back for this!" They cheered in unison.
Arigatou for reading this! I know it's short but hey, at least it had an okay ending! I will be back for a part two... eventually! See you in the next thing I write!
