Alicia—Wow, I totally didn't know that! Well, that's too bad...poor Bob. I guess that means that they won't make a sequel, and I guess that's for the best. I mean, no one can replace Bob Hoskins!

AL19—I'm glad you're still enjoying the story! I don't know if you've seen it or not, but I strongly recommend that you check out the deleted scene from the movie before you continue.

Jenna—Not enough weasels here? Don't worry…there's plenty more to come. And you wanted for me to send you a sneak peek of tomorrow's chapter…I'm working on it as we speak!

Chapter Ten

Eddie placed his hat up by the window to Jessica's dressing room, using it as protection from the glass that scattered as he broke in. He glanced around anxiously, making sure that they weren't being followed…although Lulu thought that somebody had to have heard the glass shattering. Eddie tried not to let his doubts get in the way of the current objective, and he slid into the room.

"Are you sure about this?" Jenna asked, climbing in after Eddie.

"What could go wrong?" He replied, pulling Lulu and Alicia in once she was inside.

That was the last thing they heard him say before they were knocked out.

Judge Doom was standing over them, still imposing and dark. The girls moaned and shifted as they came to. Although they wanted to get the hell away from the sinister gargoyle of a judge, they didn't want to get up…especially since they were so tired. "Pick him up," he commanded somebody, and the girls saw Bongo force Eddie into a chair. That woke them up. They got up on their own, not wanting to be pushed around by some furry beast. They leaned against the wall, surveying the room they were in. Jessica Rabbit was there, too, sitting on a couch and ignoring everybody present.

"Wandering around ladies' dressing rooms?" The judge tsked, frowning at Eddie. "What were you hoping to find?"

"Last week, some heavy breather wanted one of my nylons as a souvenir," Jessica reminisced, seductively crossing her legs as she stared at Eddie.

"He wasn't looking for underwear," Alicia interrupted, not ready to take any crap from the A-list Toon.

"You know damn well what I was looking for!" Eddie told the judge. "I was looking for Acme's will!"

"Marvin Acme had no will," Doom said. "I should know. His estate is under my jurisdiction." He took his seat in a fat armchair, watching Eddie's reactions carefully…he still hadn't acknowledged the presence of the girls. That was fine with them. They didn't want attention from a creepy old man!

"Just like the rest of this world, right?" Lulu asked herself under her breath. Nobody paid attention to her.

"Oh, there was a will, all right!" Jenna argued.

"And she and Maroon killed Acme for it!" Alicia accused, pointing at the Toon woman.

"That's absurd!" Jessica yelled, standing up and placing her hands on her hips.

"Someone else is in here, looking for it, probably one of Maroon's flunkies! And I probably would have found it if he hadn't gotten in the way of our search," Eddie shot at Bongo. The gorilla tried grabbing at the detective, roaring in outrage. But, surprisingly, it was the judge that held him back.

"Easy, Bongo," he coaxed. "We'll handle Mr. Valiant our own way…downtown." He shot the four of them a toothy smile. The girls shuddered.

"Downtown," Eddie echoed, smiling in relief. "Fine, let's go. Get Santino, I'd love to go downtown."

"And maybe we could do some shopping," Jenna hinted, staring enviously at the pretty dress that Jessica was wearing.

"Oh, I'm not talking about that downtown," the judge said. "I'm talking about downtown Toon Town." Every syllable was pronounced clearly, and Eddie's face was wiped of everything except for sheer terror and panic. The door to the room opened, and there stood the Toon Patrol, giggling, coughing, and smiling…oh, and leering at the girls, but they were used to that by now. Jenna was still enjoying it. But why, she wondered with faint jealousy, was Greasy staring at Alicia?

"You were warned to stay out of this case, Mr. Valiant," Smarty reminded him, strutting into the room and adjusting his tie. "But you didn't." His eyes widened with anticipation, and they glinted with pure evil.

"No, not Toon Town," Eddie pleaded. "No, no, NO!" His pleas were lost on them, and their laughter grew louder. They only stopped long enough to order Bongo to escort Eddie to their car, and then personally show the girls the way. Jessica did nothing to intervene, and the judge only watched and nodded his approval. Eddie was still trembling when he was thrown in the back of the car, still screaming his pleas. He was silent only when Psycho and Wheezy held their weapons against his head, challenging him to speak up. He didn't.

And the girls were shaking, completely oblivious of everything that was going to happen to them during that night. They were sort of excited at the opportunity to see more Toons. But they were even more afraid of what the weasels would do with them. Should they try to make a run for it? What if they got lost in Toon Town? Would anybody help them? No one would recognize them. Some many quiet, nagging thoughts pestered them as they were transported to their dreams come true and worst nightmares.

But the one thing they didn't doubt that the hours that they were going to spend in Toon Town would take an eternity to pass…if only that time wasn't so short!

Review, please! :)

Oh, and by the way, all of that stuff I said a few chapters ago about one chapter being my masterpiece...ignore it. The NEXT chapters, all of them together, will be my masterpiece. *sniff* Do you smell that? That's the smell of blood, sweat, tears, heart, soul, and mind all mixed together. That's everything that I am putting into the next chapters.

Be hyped. Be VERY hyped.
