Ch.4: Visions of The Future
"It's my pleasure to serve you Master Mange," said Lynn with a bow.
Outside the hut, Lightning sighed relief. So this guy wasn't Proffesor Z, but he did look an awfully lot like him.
"Must be a relative or something," thought Lightning. His suspicions were confirmed when Mange spoke.
"My brother was foolish in getting captured by those British spies" said Mange "But I shall out best him! And prove to mother, once and for all, that she should have picked me as the favorite child!"
"Family's can be so cruel," said Lynn.
"Indeed" said Mange, looking at the black tow truck " you know that better than anyone. Loosing your wisely gained inheritence to a brother who has no idea how to use it! Well it's time for rejects like us to shine! With the V-8 Cylinder in our hands, the world will be ours to rule!"
"Yes!" cheered Lynn.
Lightning had heard enough and decided to drive off. His eyes were narrowed in anger.
"Now I understand why Mater doesn't talk about his sister much" said Lightning. " the traitor!"
When the red racecar made it back to the village, Finn and Holley were already waiting there for him. After telling the two spy cars what he had learned Lightning noticed that someone was missing.
"Where's Mater?" asked Lightning.
"That's what we were wondering," said Finn.
"Great" said Lightning " how are we going to find him?"
"Leave that to me" said Holley, calling up her computer " I was worried Mater might run off again so I installed a tracking device. If he's anywhere we'll find him,"
A yellow dot soon flashed on the screen.
"There he is!" said Holley, slightly confused " somewhere in the jungle,"
"Let's go," said Finn, and with that said the three cars drove off. Once they were gone, a blue Elite crawled out behind the hut where he had been hiding and turned on his communicator.
"Elite calling Crow" said Elite " I found his trail. The V-8 Cylinder will soon be ours,"
Meanwhile, deep in the jungle, Mater was just waking up from his unconious sleep. A steady fire glowed nearby, and the crisp dawn of the night air drove him out his slumber.
"Wha...where am I?" asked Mater.
"In my home" said a orange Zapor, suddenly creeping out of the light " I've been waiting a long time for your family's return Sir Mater,"
"Who..who are you? And how do you know my name?" asked Mater nervously.
"A long time ago" said Zapor, throwing some smoke onto the fire " your Grandfather came to me seeking my help to create the ultimate part. He needed some of my magic to make the part run more efficently, but the combination with his science was to unstable and ended up wiping out an entire town,"
"Depressed and ashamed, he asked me to hide the part so that no one could use it ever again. He hid in shame for many years before building up his fortune again and give birth to his legacy. Now, you have been brought here to finish off that legacy,"
"I don't know" said Mater " what am I supposed to do?"
"Destroy the part Mater" said Zapor " you must get rid of the part once and for all,"
"But how?" asked Mater " I don't even know where it is? Heck, I don't even know where I am,"
"Go to England and find the den where the Dragster sleeps" said Zapor " watch for Lynn, Mange, and then the Crow begins to speak,"
With that said, a gaint puff smoke went up into the air, and when it vanished, so did Zapor. But where the witch doctor had disappeared, something had taken her place. Curious, Mater drove up to see a gold medallion laying on the ground. Not knowing anything better to do with it, the tow truck put it around his neck, and then headed off to find his friends. It wasn't too long either before Mater bumped into them.
"Mater!" yelled Lightning.
"McQueen!" Mater yelled back.
"Where were you?" asked Lightning " and where'd you get that medallion?"
"Oh, I just talking to some ol' witch doctor who told me the V-8 Cylinder is somewhere in England and that we have to destroy it," said Mater.
"You mean you found her?" said Holley.
"Yeah" said Mater " right after these two cars chased me into the jungle,"
"What cars?" asked Finn, suddenly concerned.
"I don't know," said Mater.
"Bet thier after the V-8 Cylinder too," said Lightning.
"Then we better get back to England fast," said Holley.
"You're not going anywhere," said an Elite, coming out the bushes. The pair who chased Mater appearing beside him. " You see our Boss would to have a few words with your little tow truck friend, so move aside,"
"These are the blokes who attacked the London Musuem" said Finn to the others, then glared at Elite " you'll have to go through us first,"
"No problem" said Elite " Richard, Joe, Attack!"
And with that said the battle began.
