Finn caught sight of Zündapp as he began making a run for it. "Holley, Aggie and I'll get Zündapp! You help Mater!"
"Got it!" Holley called, flying off to find him.
Finn was heading towards the harbor near the Tyre Bridge, still has Aggie on top of him. Instead of screaming in terror and fear, she was now having a great time. It's like she was riding a rollercoaster. As they approached the Tyre Bridge, they caught sight of Zündapp zooming underneath the bridge, heading straight towards an armored ship sitting in the water nearby.
"Hang on this time, Aggie!" Finn instructed.
"Got it!" Aggie held on very tightly.
Finn pushed himself up, leaping over the railing of the bridge and landing behind Zündapp. He kept up his pace, shooting his front two grappling hooks and catching them onto Zündapp's bumper. Finn shifted gears quickly, reversing with just enough power to stop the professor before jerking him backwards.
"Do you really think I'm going to let you float away, Professor?" Finn growled, dragging Zündapp backwards.
But a strong force suddenly began pulling Zündapp and Finn forward, despite the Finn's best attempts to reverse backwards. His tires squealed and smoke billowed out, but he soon discovered why he and Zündapp were being pulled forward: the armored ship's magnet trained on them. Finn desperately kept his back wheels spinning, his front wheels he used to try and push himself backwards. But the magnet's strength managed to pull him forward still. Finn unloaded his guns, unsure if they'd still be loaded or not, but the magnet was so strong it ended up tearing the weapons off him. It even took the last of his missiles when he tried to fire those and Zündapp's monocle.
"This is so not good!" Aggie cried as she thought Finn can't do this alone. Thinking she can't just sit there and watch, Aggie hopped off of Finn, and pulled one of his cables to help Finn and pull Zündapp with all her strength.
"What are you doing?!" The spy car inquired.
"Helping you! That's what I'm doing!" Aggie replied as she kept pulling the cable on his left.
Finn has nothing to do but let Aggie help him. She had her chance now.
Suddenly, the armored ship's large gun suddenly raised from the bow of the carrier, the targeting laser placed right at Finn's hood.
Aggie saw the laser targeted Finn. As she realized she has superstrenght, she pulled Finn aside with the cable when the ship fired a blast, and they avoid it. Then , another blast, forcing Aggie to push Finn harder and faster to the other side to avoid the second blast. But he kept his hooks onto Zündapp, and she still holding the cable, but her body was drag on the ground as her legs can't stand up because of being afraid.
"Give it up, McMissile!" Zündapp shouted.
Finn's mind raced, and when he saw his tires he got an idea. He opened up the panel in his hubcaps to release the magnetic explosives, allowing the carrier's magnet to take whatever he had left. The ship looked to see the magnetic explosives blinking rapidly, and his eyes widened.
"Bye, bye!" Aggie grinned and waved.
The ship exploded with water rising upward.
"Yeah! Alright!" Aggie screamed victoriously, until the water sprayed on them. "Okay, let's just take this bad guy, and let me take care of him."
"Huh, what are you gonna do? Begging me to stop bothering your friends?" Zündapp chuckled.
This made Aggie angrier than before as she opened Finn's door, took out a long metal wire, and slammed the door. She quickly and aggressively tied Zündapp around his body.
"You better stop bothering my friends!" Aggie growled. "Or else, I'll kill you!" Clearly she can't do that because of another human's reputation of killing a car was recorded in this world. She was just scaring the professor for fun. Then, she turned to Finn. "Come one, Finn! Let's go!"
When she rolled past him, Finn realized Aggie didn't climb up onto him anymore. "Uh, are you not going to ride on me?"
"Not this time! I'm angry!" She shouted as she skated up the ramp, and Finn followed her.
Finn and Aggie finally arrived at the scene where Mater, Lightning, and Holley are as the two managed to shove a now-tied up Zündapp forward.
"Hey, bro." Aggie greeted Lightning. "Did you win?"
"Aggie? What are you doing here? Where have you been all this time?" Lightning asked.
Zündapp saw Lightning and glared. "You! Why didn't my death ray kill you?!"
"Death ray?!" Lightning repeated, looking us for an explanation.
"Turn off the bomb, Zündapp!" Finn ordered.
"Are you all so dense?" Zündapp droned. "Its voice activated. Everything is voice activated these days."
"Deactivate! Deactivate!" Mater cried hurriedly.
The remote on the bomb buzzed. "Voice denied." A timer suddenly appeared, giving Mater only five minutes before the bomb went off.
"Oops." Zündapp said with fake sheepishness. "Did I forget to mention that it can only be disarmed by the one who activated it?"
Holley rolled up, taser armed. "Say it."
"Deactivate." Zündapp replied without hesitation but the remote said "Voice denied" and lopped a full minute off the timer. "I'm not the one who activated it." He sneered. "Would anyone else like to try?" He convulsed into spasms as Holley tazed him, sending him collapsing to the ground.
"You read my mind." Finn smirked.
"Nice one, girl. Waiting for you to do that." Aggie added.
"He was getting on my nerves." Holley groaned as she put the taser away.
"What do we do?" Lightning asked worriedly.
Before anyone could suggest anything, a voice said. "It's very simple. You blow up." Spinning around, they found every roadway blocked by the Pacer, Hugo, Trunkov, and Gremlin family heads along with their henchcars. Even Ivan the tow truck along with several other henchcars.
"I'm gonna go out on a limb here. These are the guys that want me dead, correct?" Lightning asked.
"Yes, yes they are." Aggie answered.
"It's nothing personal." Trunkov said, as though it would make Lightning feel better about getting killed.
"Fellers, listen." Mater called suddenly. "I know what yer goin' through. Everybody's been laughin' at me my whole life too. But becomin' powerful and rich beyond your wildest dreams ain't gonna make you feel better."
The lemons seemed to seriously consider Mater's words for a brief moment before Gremlin smirked. "Yeah, but it's worth a shot." He unloaded his gun.
Suddenly, a powerful stream of water washed away several of the Gremlin cars, sending their boss into the bushes as Red, Sally, and Doc appeared. Four of the lemons tried to surround Finn, but he launched his grappling hooks and pulled them all together in a collision. Holley reversed from two of the lemons coming towards her, activating her jet mode and smashing two more cars into her attackers. Aggie grabbed one of the lemons with her own little but strong hand, and threw it away, sending it flying towards the other bunch of lemon cars. A couple lemons lunged, but suddenly found their wheels falling off.
"Peet stop." Guido huffed triumphantly.
Flo approached the Trunkov and flashed her headlights, blinding him long enough for Sheriff to slap a parking boot on him like he did with many of the other lemons. Ivan lunged for Lightning, but Mater shot forward and knocked the blue tow truck aside. He swung around and smacked two lemon henchmen away as they approached. Mater gave a mighty yell and hooked his tow cable under the lead Pacer's jaw, throwing him aside and towards Ramone. He slashed his paint can across the Pacer, leaving a trail of purple paint across the smaller car's windshield and hood. The remaining lemons stared in shock at their opponents: the spies and the entire town of Radiator Springs all ready to pound them into a pulp.
"Retreat!" Pacer shouted, encouraging the remaining lemons to speed away down the road. But they skidded to a halt when they rounded the corner and discovered a small army of British military vehicles in their path, complete with helicopters and all of them training their weapons on the evil cars.
"Thanks for the help, Corporal." Sarge told one of the vehicles beside him.
"Anything for one of Pop's mates." The British military vehicle replied.
Everyone watched anxiously as the clock continued to tick down on the bomb. The timer read 2:39 already. Mater stood in the middle of the intersection with Luigi, Guido, Lightning, and Aggie while everyone else stayed behind risers a safe distance away. Guido had been working on that for a while, but when he tried to unscrew the bolts his drill made a strange grinding sound. He glared at the tool for a moment before shouting in Italian and throwing it down, kicking it aside as he drove off with crossed forks.
"What's he saying?" Lightning asked worriedly. "What's wrong?"
"None of his wrenches fit the bolts." Luigi replied sadly.
If they couldn't get the bomb off him, Mater will die for sure.
"Suddenly, Mater just realized something. "I get it! I know what needs ta be done."
"Then do it!" Lightning urged.
"What? No, I can't do it. Look, nobody takes me seriously." Mater protested. "I know that now. This ain't Radiator Springs."
"Yes, it is." Lightning said firmly, with a warm smile on his face. "Look, you're yourself in Radiator Springs. Be yourself here. And if people aren't taking you seriously, then they need to change, not you. I know that because I was wrong before. Now, you can do this. You're the bomb."
"Thanks, buddy." Mater said with a smile.
"No, no, no, you're the actual bomb!" Lightning reminded him. "Now let's go!"
"Oh, right!" Mater swung his tow cable around, hooking under Lightning's front axle, and drove off, dragging McQueen behind him as he smashed his way through the risers.
Finn blinked in surprise. "Where's he going?"
"We have to follow him!" Aggie suggested as Finn and Holley nodded, and they sped off to catch up with Mater and Lightning.
"Aggie!" Sally called.
Aggie halted as she knew her friends was about to ask her some questions, but it's an unfortunate timing. "There's no time! I'll explain everything later!" She said before catching up with Finn and Holley.
An instant mass panic happened as most of the spectators near the track suddenly took off. The Radiator Springs' residents, finally catching up, stood on the race track and watched in shock and concern.
"Hold your fire!" Finn suddenly shouted as he screeched to a halt on the stage with Aggie in tow. "He can't disarm it! Mater, I don't know what you're doing, but stand down now!"
Holley approached, standing behind the police cars and staring at the scene with wide eyes.
"This ain't nothin' at all like Radiator Springs." Mater told Lightning as the police surrounded them.
"Mater, just cut to the chase." Lightning urged.
"Okay." Mater nodded. "It's him." He pointed to Miles Axlerod, still on the stage.
"What? Me?" Miles chuckled. "You've got to be crazy."
"I figured it out when I realized y'all attached this ticking time bomb with Whitworth bolts – the same bolts that hold together that old British engine from the photograph." Mater explained. "Holley! Show that picture!"
"Okay." Though confused, Holley rolled forward and pulled up the engine picture on her computer.
"And then I remembered what they say about old British engines: if there ain't no oil under 'em, there ain't no oil in 'em." Mater said.
"What is he talking about?" Miles demanded.
"It was you leaking oil at the party in Japan." Mater declared, him and me beginning to roll closer to Miles. "You just blamed it on me."
"Electric cars don't use oil, you twit." Miles snapped.
"Then yer fakin' it." Mater reasoned. "You didn't convert to no electric. If we pop that hood, we gonna see that engine from that picture right there."
"This lorry's crazy!" Miles shouted to the police. "He's gonna kill us all!" He stopped when one of his back tires hit open air, and he realized with a start he had backed up to the edge of the platform. "Stay away!" He growled at us.
"But Sir Miles created the race, Mater." Holley protested. "Why would he want to hurt anyone?"
"To make Allinol look bad so everybody'd go back to usin' oil." Mater said. "I mean he said it himself with that dee-sguised voice."
"'Dee-sguised voice'?" Miles scoffed. What are you talking about? You're nuts, you are!"
"This is going nowhere fast." Prince Wheeliam said to the Queen. "We really should go, Grandmother."
"One moment." The monarch replied. "I'd like to see where this is going."
The timer only had thirty seconds left.
"But Mater, he created Allinol, remember?" Aggie protested.
"And what if he found that huge oil field just as the world was tryin' ta find somethin' else?" Mater added, glaring at Miles. "What if he came up with allinol just to make alternative fuel look bad?"
"'What if?'" Miles growled, his escape route blocked by the tow truck. "You're basing this on a 'what if'?"
"Okay, that's it!" One of the guards began ordering everyone out, escorting the rest of the civilians and the royalty to safety. Only Lightning, Holley, Finn and Aggie stayed in our spots, staring at the confrontation between Miles and Mater.
"Wait, somebody save me!" Miles shouted. "The lorry's crazy! Keep away, you idiots!"
"Mater!" Finn called warningly. Aggie rolled a little backward in fear with her eyes widened.
"Mater!" Holley cried worriedly. Lightning stared with wide eyes.
"Someone do something!" Miles shouted in desperation.

"You're insane, you are!" Miles shouted at Mater.

Everyone else braced for the explosion.

"Deactivate!" Miles screamed.
Just as the timer hit 1, the remote beeped. "Bomb deactivated. Have a nice day, Sir Miles Axlerod :)."
Mater smirked proudly, seeming to enjoy Miles hyperventilating as two police cars pulled up on either side of him. Mater swung his tow hook around and caught the edge of Miles' hood, pulling it up to reveal an old engine underneath.
"The engine from the photo." Finn confirmed.
"It's a perfect match." Holley agreed.
"How did the tow truck figure it out?" Miles scoffed.
"It's official." Lighting smiled as he approached Mater. "You're coming to all my races from now on."
"Now yer talkin'!" Mater smiled broadly the two of them bumping tires.
At the Buckingham palace, Mater made the funniest and wildest faces he could muster, but the guard he stood before was just as stoic as ever..
"Mater, let's go." Lightning encouraged with a chuckle. "You're on." The two rolled through the large double doors of the palace hall, passing by an entire crowd of spectators that included Finn, Holley, Aggie, and all of the Radiator Springs' folks.
"Your Majesty," Lord Steward announced. " May I present for the investiture of honorary Knighthood of the British Realm. Tow Mater of Radiator Springs."
"Go get 'em, buddy." Lightning encouraged, standing with the rest of the Radiator Springs' residents.
Mater rolled up to the front of the room, standing before the Queen of England herself, and bowed respectfully.
The Queen rolled up a long antennae from her fender, tapping it on Mater's fenders . "I hereby dub thee Sir Tow Mater.." Cheers erupted from the crowd.
"Sir? Shoot, you can just call me Mater, Yer Majesty." Mater told the Queen. "I don't wanna hear none of this 'sir' business. By the way, have y'all met each other?" Mater rolled back as Lightning came forward. "The Queen, McQueen. McQueen, the Queen. McQueen, McMissile. McMissile, McQueen. The Queen, McMissile."
"I think they get it." Aggie laughed.
I got these stuffs from Ash505, so it wouldn't be hard for me to make the movie into a story. Sorry, I was quite lazy, and I want to finish this story to move to another one. Thank you very much, Ash505.
