Hi guys, chapter 7 is up :D sorry for not uploading for so long... I feel bad now :P Things get super awful for Bonnie on her first day of high school - can things GET any worse? Well, apparently, they can... goodbye, sweet memories. Oh, and sorry for interrupting the dramatic moment, but my alter ego, Whipped Cream and Cherries, is going to be on hold, so I want to apologize for the Nightingale's Song fans because that story will be on hold for a lil bit.
Well, whatever anyone says, I just cannot be bothered to go to some cocky 'Model' school.
Yes, I did sound enthusiastic, but, to be honest, when I died, I was hoping I'd be able to wriggle out of lessons. Apparently, that didn't work.
When I straightened out my uniform and walked into the place, I realised that I look like a hillbilly compared to these 'superstars'. All the cats, dogs and a couple of rabbits (no mice, I see) had completely mucked up their uniforms. The girls had hitched up their chocolate brown skirts, revealing more of their skinny legs, while the boys had unbuttoned some of their shirt to reveal their smooth chests.
Ew!
A fat little cat was sitting next to two other cats, a pink one, and a green one. A fat cat. Weird...? I clutched onto the device Shaun had given me.
'It takes down Chandler', he said. Well, I don't think I believe him. I walked towards the three felines. They all blinked at me like I was a total stranger. Well, I guess I was. Then, the green cat jumped up and squealed.
"Oh my god, it's THE Queen Bonnie Thunderspeed! She's the one who saved Toonkind like 5 years ago. They made your life into a film. I watched it with Layla. It was awesome! I wish I could meet Lucy Chung. She played Bonnie. And Simon Longfellow is sooo hot when he played 'K'."
What the hell! Are these people bonkers, or is the world controlled by a freak? Apparently, both are true.
"Anyway, Lucy played you like a total Mary Sue. I was like, OMG she played it so so well and so so cutely!" The fat cat covered the green cat's mouth and pulled her to the ground.
"You idiot, Queen Bonnie Thunderspeed is dead, you dafty. You've just told a random girl super stupid stuff and now she thinks we are freaks."
I smiled. A hand tapped my shoulder. I whipped around and Shaun smiled.
"You've finally arrived. Where were you?" I hissed. The green cat squealed even louder this time.
"Oh my god, this guy looks just like 'K'! Oh my god oh my god, you are like so fit! Please go out with me!" Shaun grinned the I told you this would be fun look and smiled at the green feline.
"Sorry girls, but this lovely lady and I better be off." He grabbed my hand and ran off into a corner.
"Thank the lord I'm out of there. Why did you tell me earlier to go to them?" Shaun's face went suddenly serious. I think I oughta explain what happened before this.
FLASHBACK:
"Take down Chandler?" Poppencrunch scoffed. Dinner time at the Thunderspeed house is never dull now, is it? Shaun's mesmerising eyes looked at the dog with laughter.
"Now, Poppencrunch, I managed to steal this device in the lab in Toon Hall while Bonnie was distracting Chandler. This was something Chandler and his groupies were working on – this can destroy all of Toon life and replace it with data from Chandler's brain. Then, basically, everyone is brainwashed. I had already downloaded a virus that overrides the instructions on this thing, so when I'd stolen it, I put the memory stick with the virus in it into the device. The problem is that I and Bonnie don't exactly have the power to activate it. I did my research and found the profile of a cat. Lulu Derrison. She is apparently a very depressed cat. I did some more research and using the radar I built, found out the amount of sad energy radiating from her is enough to completely activate the device and the power in the device will be sent for over 1000 miles. Chandler won't even stand a chance. "
When he finished, he looked at me. Why does the world hate me? Why was I chosen to be the dummy/bait!
BACK TO REALITY:
So now I've explained what happened last night, I've also remembered why I had to go up to that cat. All I can say is that it isn't fair. I think Shaun figured out that I'd remembered why I had to go to Lulu, because he sent me back out to the gossip girls. Help me. The green cat immediately moved aside so I could sit down on the hall floor.
"Soo... are you two going out?" she said, her eyes gleaming. I almost died.
"N-no! You dipstick... of course not!" Oops. Big mistake. They all smirked, making me blush. Damn it, why can't my life, sorry, death, be easier than this? I eyed them carfeully. Lulu didn't look very depressed. She was laughing and joking around with her friends. But when I observed her carefully, I realised her eyes were sad looking, her laugh cracked. When she went to the toilet, I followed her into the girls' changing rooms/ lavatory. She locked herself in a cubicle and cried. Muffled sobs rang around the room. I knocked on her door softly, and she froze.
"Wh-whoever this is, I am fine, alright?" She opened the door and tried to look happy, but her eyes were red and sore.
"Lulu, when you said that I wasn't Queen Bonnie Thunderspeed, you were wrong. I am. And I need your help to stop the cogs taking over." She stepped back and looked at me in fright.
"Y-you are dead! You're a ghost!" I tried to get hold of her arm, but she pulled it away. The lights flickered off. When they turned on again, Shaun was next to me, looking deadly serious.
"Nice entrance, huh? Thought I'd make it dramatic." Lulu screamed, but no noise came out.
The toilets exploded. Spluttering, I rubbed my eyes. I looked around and saw nothing but rubble. Lulu was cornered, and Shaun was in a headlock; a black cat was holding him away from us. He stunned the orange cat and Shaun crumpled to the ground.
"We need the cat Bonnie," he said softly, pointing at Lulu.
"Jayden," I hissed, staring at the feline. I leapt at him, my paws out, ready to attack, but he nimbly jumped out of the way. I grabbed Lulu's hand, and we made a break for it. I pushed through the toilet doors, but the school had disappeared. Instead there was Toon Hall, restored in its glory. I ran back in the toilets, but Shaun and Jayden and the other toons had vanished.
"Crap," I muttered. Lulu whimpered in fright. I looked at her in sympathy.
"Welcome to my world, Lulu Derrison," I muttered. Jayden re-appeared out of nowhere, throwing Shaun's limp body on the ground. A portal came out of the ground. Chandler stepped out, chucking Aqua's body next to Shaun's. They both were unconscious. Then a third person came; a cog carrying Tulip by the scruff. I gasped and ran to my niece, but someone pulled me back. Lulu. Chandler's menacing eyes followed my every movement.
"You wanted to destroy me with a simple scrap of metal. I have brought forth three important people in your life. Only one can survive. Pick, Thunderspeed." Tears welled up inside me. Shaun's eyes flickered open.
"Tulip," he murmured. He gave me a shaky thumbs up, before fainting again. Aqua didn't even wake up. Shaun's hand wormed its way towards Aqua's, and he gripped it tightly. I saw Aqua's hand move, and I saw her clutching his paw. Shaun gave a final smile.
"Tulip," I said hoarsely. Tulip looked at me in bewilderment as the cog threw her at us. I held her small body tightly as Chandler took a knife and slit both Aqua's and Shaun's throat. A single diamond tear fell to the floor.
"They meet death again, poor things," Chandler cackled. Toon Hall, Shaun, Aqua and Chandler slowly faded away. Jayden looked guiltily at me.
I thought he was Chandler. He must be the... alter ego of him. The one with feelings.
The black cat clutched my arm. He didn't fade away.
