Hey peoples of the internet, this is a short chapter because i've been a bit brain dead when it comes to this story lately and i've been working on Brighter Pastures, it may not be that well written so if you see some problems tell me and i'll try and sort it, its a little anti climatic but i felt it worked, but then again, what do i know?

Enjoy! (i hope)


He may have been in cartoon form but she would have recognized her father anywhere, his distinctive scars and scowl was more than recognizable,

While she looked like a Warner (albeit with blue nose) he was in a human form,

He said nothing as he drove erratically around town; he had to get off the road and fast,

Poor Lucy was in the back terrified out of her wits end, she was so scared she couldn't even cry, she slid and fell about as he turned round bends,

She prayed that they would find her in time.

Suddenly a siren was heard,

Then another,

And another,

And another,

''Ah sh#t'' he muttered frustrated,

Several police cars were following them, they were after the car he had stolen, they had no idea there was a stolen child in the back seat,

Except one,

Ralph did have a car, although he rarely used it, the second the other Warner's had been informed they had all bundled in and taken off after it, thanks to the sirens they had found the car and were now amongst them trying to catch up to it,

The car with Lucy shot round corners and bends trying to loose them but he couldn't,

Then he saw a large downhill stretch, 'now I can build up some speed' he thought and floored it down the gradient,

His speed increased dramatically, the police cars and the Warner's had to slow down,

'Now I have it' he grinned showing his yellow teeth,

then the steering wheel began shaking, the car was going too fast to control, he began skidding on the road, a sharp bend was coming up, he swung the wheel hard, the car skidded sideways at high speed, too fast to make it round the corner,

If you've ever seen the film 'Duel' then imagine the scene where he smashes into that cliff edge,

The Warner's could only watch in horror as he smashed into an abandoned building side first,

Inside Lucy was hurled against the side door, normally this would have injured her but because she was a toon she was pretty much okay.

her father realised that the car would never work now or in time to escape so he bailed, the car had smashed the buildings door open with the drivers door so he scrambled out, but not before giving Lucy a horrid glare which scared her to her core,

Then he jumped out and ran into the building,

Suddenly all the cars which had been following them screeched to a stop nearby,

The backseat door on the side of the car that wasn't pressed against a building was wrenched open; Lucy turned and saw the Warner's standing there looking worried,

''Lucy are you alright?!'' cried Wakko,

Lucy stared for a second before leaping out and clinging on to him, she was white with fear (literally and still too scared to cry,

The police, upon seeing the little toon girl, where now even more determined to catch this man,

''He ran in there!'' cried one policeman,

They ran into the building, but they came out declaring it empty,

''Wakko follow your nose!'' cried Yakko,

Wakko rushed in sniffing around like last time when they had been finding Lucy, he sniffed around the dusty floor, into a room with a cement floor, the scent ran towards a manhole cover where the dust was disturbed, he pulled out a spatula and flipped it up to the other side of the road, and got ready to follow the smell,

Except it wasn't there, it was only after he took a big smell that he realised where manholes usually lead,

the scent was lost, overpowered by the stench of sewage, his siblings, as well as Lucy whom was being carried by Yakko, peered in as well as the police,

there was no ladder or even footing, the manhole lead to the direct top of the colossal pipe witch made the sewers, there was no pathways or anything, just a straight up river of brownish greenish, and in some places yellowish, sludge.

''Boy he must have been pretty desperate to escape if he took that dive'' said a policeman

''He must be some swimmer as well'' said dot,

there was no trace of the man anywhere, he was gone, along the pipe both ways there was other pipes branching off, meaning he could have gone anywhere,

Then Yakko felt something on his fur, he looked down,

Lucy had finally started to cry,


Lucy hadn't smiled in a week,

she had been in the worst state they had ever seen after the incident, she straight up refused to leave the tower and didn't want to be left alone, the Warner's couldn't blame her,

scratch-n-sniff managed to deduce that she must have some prior relation with the man, most likely being the one who gave Lucy her scars, but he couldn't get anymore information out of her,

Ralph had been drinking enormous amounts of coffee and caffeine pills, determined not to let anyone by without a pass,

Plotz had bumped up the security on the lot; he may not like the Warner's a lot, but he could see when something was serious and really didn't want too see Lucy hurt,

Sure she and Wakko pulled a silly trick on him but in truth he though she looked like she needed a laugh,

everyone was praying the news would come that they had captured the man, but no-one had really gotten a good look at him so the description of him was rather poor, the police didn't have much to go on,

And even with the extra precautions everyone was still a little shaky,

They all felt he would come back,


Lucy's father was trudging along the back alleys of a bad part of town,

He had to think of a way to get her back; no court would ever take his side so he would have to use force,

he had landed up on a building in another part of town the night Lucy arrived, but his senses were so dulled by alcohol he got over the shock pretty quick,

He saw Lucy out and about with the Warner's as he was stumbling along,

And she had been smiling, happy,

This had made his blood boil,

He couldn't stand the site of her being happy, she was his little servant and should be nothing more,

so he watched her, bided his time, kept a careful watch, then when he saw them around the lot making there contraption he saw how close they came to the entrance on occasion, he searched around until he found a car he could use,

then he waited outside the entrance, that fat guard had been asleep so he was able to wait, he had found a crowbar in the toolbox under the seat, now he just had to wait,

It had all gone so well, then that car had decided to conk out on that hill and ruin everything, the only way to escape had been...

He didn't like thinking about it, but he could still smell it on his clothes even after he had washed himself with that hose,

But he could wait, bide his time, but he needed some leverage, something he could hold above them so they wouldn't come after him,

He was passing a cinema; they were showing famous old movies, and he saw one poster for a classic,

'Who Framed Rodger Rabbit'

He paid it little attention and walked on,

he had seen that film, he found it alright but was hardly bothered, he remembered it a lot, particularly a scene where that Judge Doom had melted into the...

He stopped walking,

He smirked,

This smirk turned into a manic, evil grin,

He had found his leverage.


As i said, a little aniti climatic and rather short but stay with me i'll pull this off! you'll see! until next time...
