Over The Hedge 2: Journey To New York City

Chapter 10: Confrontation


As Alex and the others take RJ and the others to the throne room where they will meet Max, he orders the rest of the soldiers to take Verne and the others to the prison cell while he can keep an eye out on RJ. "You're staying put", said Alex, "Max will like to speak to you." "What for?", asked RJ after Alex takes out the cloth rag out of his mouth. "You'll see soon enough", said Alex, "I'll be right back." Then, he runs off as quickly as he could, leaving RJ alone to think in his thoughts. "Well, here goes", thought RJ to himself, "You can do this, RJ. You can do this." Then, Alex returns and from out of the darkness came Max. "Well, well, well", said Max, "RJ, we meet each other at last." "You must be Max", said RJ. "That's right", said Max, "Are the others in their cells, Alex?"

"Yes, my lord", said Alex. "Good", said Max and looks into RJ darkly. "Why are you trying to scare me?", asked RJ, a little bit frightened. "So you could feel the same way your parents did when they fought against me", said Alex. "What are you talking about?", asked RJ, now confused, but then remembers his dream from last night on the airplane and starts to have flashbacks of it. "Wait", said RJ, "You're the demon from my dream last night. But what does it mean?" "Are you telling me that you don't know?", asked Max, "You don't even remember your parents?" "No", said RJ, "but you do. So you tell me." "So, you want to know the truth", said Max, "Alright then." He glares at him very darkly and chuckled evily. "Your parents didn't love you", said Max. RJ gasps, thinking that what he's saying is true, but then in his thoughts, he realizes that Max is wrong.

Meanwhile, at the prison cell, we see Stella and Tiger trying to get out. "Let us out!", shouted Tiger, "You cannot keep us here like this!" "It's no use", said Ozzie, "We're stuck here." "I wonder what those rat wolves are doing to RJ", said Heather. "I hope they're not hurting our friend", said Stella, "Cause' if they do, I'm gonna stink all over the place." "I don't think they're hurting our friend", said Heather, "There's something very important for RJ, I think." Then, the door opened and we see RJ walking with Max to where the others are at and Heather and the others see him. "RJ", said Ozzie, "What did they do to you? And is that Max?" "Yes, I am", said Max, "and it's wonderful to see your... new family, RJ." He chuckles evily and RJ continues to walk with him.

"RJ", said Heather, "What's going on?" RJ, not listening to her, continues to walk. "RJ!", said Heather and slumps down on the floor, wondering if RJ would talk to her and the others as well. "Don't worry, my daughter", said Ozzie, "We'll find out what's going on." Later, we see another prison cell so huge before RJ walks into it and Max closes the door before locking it with a key. "You'll stay here", said Max darkly, "so you can die for... twenty years." He laughs evily and walks off, leaving the poor raccoon in torment.


Sorry for making this short. Just wanted to kill some time. I'll update as soon as I can, so please review.
