Chapter 5 Overnight Casino
Randall was waiting for the escalator to take him to the top, holding his tail with his bottom hands, making sure his body didn't get caught in the revolving steps. Sully stepped out and noticed him. He figured that he should try to find Mike and Boo himself. He headed to the information desk.
Sully: Umm...
Monster: Yes?
Sully: Has there been....(Gulp) any...little kids around here?
Monster: Yes sir there everywhere...
Sully: I mean....human kids....
Monster: Oh....Well...not that I..
She presses a blue switch under the desk.
Monster: Not that I....know of....
Sully: Oh...
(EEERRRPPP!)
An alarm sounded.
Sully:!!!
*
Randall looked down to see the alarm and Sully running.
Randall: Too bad for Sullivan
Randall looked up the escalator seeing 2 C.D.A like monsters head down the crowd.
Randall: Hmph..
He turned invisible.
*
Sully runs up the escalator that has now been stopped, and noticed 2 agents behind him. He got to the middle, the 2 at the top couldn't see because of the crowd. Sully went up a little more.
(Bump!)
He bumped into, and uncloaked, Randall. He turned he color red because he slammed into a red monster behind him.
Randall: Sulliv....!!!
Sully: I didn't see...you...
Agent: Hold it!
The two got there, they passed Randall and cuffed Sully.
Agent: Sorry mister Readagar sir....
Agent2: We'll take care of him right away..
Randall: (They think I'm him? Hehehe...wait...)
Randall: Wait...
Agent:???
Randall: He's my assistant....
Sully: (What?....)
Agent: But...
Randall: Trust me...
They take the cuffs off. the Agent looks at Sully.
Agent: Don't start anything...
They leave, the other monsters on the escalator already gone, and Randall changes back. He turned about halve way before...
Sully: Thanks...
Randall: I need you to get that kid!
Randall heads up and Sully follows...
*
They exited a subway type of entrance and saw that they were in a huge city. A little like Monstropolis, but its buildings were taller with many lights, wider roads, more cars. The city was a busy one.....Sully looked around as Randall looked at the address on the card, and directions, and compared it to a map he got from a local monster.
Sully: Wow...
Sully stopped and looked up at the tall buildings.
Sully: I've never been out of Monstropolis before....
Randall:....That way...
Randall went passed Sully, and went farther to his left.
Sully: Where are you....
Randall turned.
Randall: Readagars Casino you idiot!..
Randall continues followed by Sully...
*
The two followed the map. Sully saw so much that he never had seen, Randall peered every now and then. For some reason....it didn't seem new to him.
Randall: (Have I been here before....?)
*
A few minutes later...
23......a long building.
24......an office building.
Randall: 25...!!!
Sully: Wow...
The casino was huge. Lights covered the building. Various gambling objects were placed in a symmetric display. Objects like the 4 aces, dice, and money. Many monsters entered and exited the building...seemed well known.
Randall cracked his knuckles, or....what supposedly is his knuckles.
Randall: Ok...
He entered with Sully....
*
A camera watched the as they came in. In a dark room, there were many more camera's, a couple of chairs, and a couch...all colored red. In front of the screen....was Readagar.
Voice: I thought Jack had finished them off....
Readagar: What do you want me to do...
Out from the shadows....Randolph emerged.
Randolph: We wait for now....
Readagar: I hate waiting...
Randolph: Tell the little one to work on the machines....
Readagar: Little fool....Too bad he knows how to work these things....
*
The casino had about 3 visible floors. Each packed with monsters....There were various gamble games, and many monsters were winning, rather than loosing.
Randall: Aha....elevators...
Randall could see 2 ahead, he turned to Sully.
Randall: You stay here!
Randall turns and runs to the lift and hits the switch to go up.
Sully:....
Voice: Yeah I'm glad I'm not getting Snake eyes! (Laughing)
Sully: !!!! Can it...
Sully heads to the voice....he then came to a Dice table.
Sully:!!!! Mike!!!!!
Mike was playing.....Sully knew only one person that makes corny jokes like that.
Mike: Sully!!!!
The two ran to and embraced each other.
Sully: I thought you might have been....!!
Mike: Me?
Sully: How'd you get here!?
Mike: When I woke up....I was here.
Sully:???
*
Randall:....
(Ding)
Randall turns invisible. He saw he was at a small hallway, that's right side led to a longer one....He got to the corner, then stopped....hearing voices...
Voice: So you'll get it properly working again!
Voice: Y-y-yes....
Voice: Good....Now get to work!
Voice: (Yelp)....O-o-ok....
Randall: (Wait a minute....)
A door was opened then closed....footsteps are heard.
Randall:.....Could it....!!!!!
Coming and stopping around the corner was....Fungus.
Randall:!!!!
He gave a small grin.
Fungus: Jee....I'm beginning to like Randall more...
Randall:...Hmm...
He slithered behind Fungus and put his hands over his mouth and pulled his hands together.
Fungus:!!!!!
Randall pushes him inside the nearest door and closes it with his tail. The room was a broom closet.
Fungus: Who's?
He appears.
Randall: My old assistant...not a good one, but at least your good at making something
Fungus: R-R-R-Randall!!!
Randall: What? Can't say hello to your scarer?
Fungus: I thought you were...!
Randall puts a hand on his mouth and head.
Randall: Shhh!!
Fungus:...
He lets go.
Randall: How did you get here?!
Fungus:....10 years ago....I...was captured...
Fungus: I was brought here...
Fungus: And I've....well...
Randall: What would he want with you?
Fungus: Something about a machine....
Randall: Listen....Would you go with him or me?
Fungus:....With you Randall...
Randall smirked at this, if he had chosen the other way, Randall would have...convinced him.
Randall: Then listen....
Randall brings him closer so he could whisper......
Randall: Got it?
Fungus: Yes...but what do...
Randall: Just do it!
Fungus: O-o-ok....
*
Randolph had already left and Readagar was watching Sully and Mike.
Readagar:...
Fungus entered, spotted by Readagar.
Readagar: What are you doing here?
Readagar: (Randolph said let them make a move...maybe he's....)
Randall was outside the door listening.
Fungus: Ummm....
Randall: ( Come on start small...give him the idea...)
Fungus: I was....just wondering what movie you've seen lately...
Randall: Why would you want to know that?
Fungus: May give me an idea.....to make the machine better.....
Randall: (I told you to....!)
Readagar: Ok then...
Randall: (???? That was easy....)
Readagar: Yeah its called Monstropolis V.S. the.......
Randall: (Uh oh!)
Readagar: Wait a minute!
(Yelp!!)
Randall:!!!!
The yell went down....
The door opens and Randall turns invisible and jumps on top, above the door. He could see Readagar looking around the hallways. He then heads down the elevator as Randall slithered into the room.
Randall: Fungus!
He couldn't see him.
Muffled voice: Randall.......
Randall went over to a cabinet, where the sound was coming from, and opened the doors. Fungus drops out.
Fungus: Thanks....
Randall: Get off of me!
Fungus realized he had fallen on him. He got up along with Randall.
Randall: Just get out of here....
Fungus: Ok...
Fungus goes to the door.
Fungus: R-Randall....
Randall: What?
Fungus: G-good luck...
Randall:...Yeah sure.....
He leaves and Randall follows.
*
Fungus heads down with the elevator, as Randall looked for anything that caught his eye. He found only one unlocked door, and stepped through.
*
The room had various machines. In the middle was a table and around were some computers, graphs, files, and many other assortment's of things.
Randall: What's this?...
His invisible hand picked up a folder. He flips though it. Inside were many design photos and order shipments for parts.
Randall: Hmm....
(Errrk!)
Randall: !!!!
He drops the folder and clings onto a wall.
*
Readagar steps in with what looked to be one of his employees.
Readagar: I cannot stress enough!
Monster: Sorry sir....
Readagar: We need to deliver those parts to the mansion!
Monster: I'll be sure to get right on it!
Readagar slams the door. and he turns.
Readagar:...??? Something's....out of place.
He sees the folder on the ground.
Readagar: I...placed this on the table...
Randall: (!!!!)
Randall heads to the door, but Readagar shuts it.
Randall:!!!!
Readagar looked everywhere.
Readagar: Randall? You must be the one here.....
Readagar:???...Hmm...
He opens the door. Randall heads to the door slowly, he gets to where the door meets the wall when...
(SLAM!)
The door hit Randall in the stomach.
Randall: (EHHHHH!)
He covered his mouth so he wouldn't yelp in pain. The door slowly moves away in the opposite direction.
Readagar: Ah!....huh?
Right below where Randall was, was a large can of maps.
Randall stays still, the pain getting the best of him.
Readagar: Guess...he isn't here....
Readagar goes out and enters the camera room.
Randall slowly makes his way to the elevator and pushes the down button. He then sits in a corner and turns visible.
Randall: Ehh... This...is great!
*
Mike: Seven!
Sully: Mike....
Mike: What Sully? I'm winning big!
Sully: We should find Randall...
Mike: Lizard Boy's still here!?
Mike: I thought you might have thrown him through a door....
Sully:...Huh?
He sees Randall limbering out of the elevator.
Sully:!!!??? Come on Mike
Mike: Wha....?
He grabs Mike.
Mike: Ehh, ok ok....I'll be right back!
Sully pulls him.
*
Randall held his stomach, making sure not to move it.
Sully and Mike came up.
Sully:!! What happen!?
Randall: I...think....were in trouble
Both:!!!!
Randall: Where's Fungus?
Mike: Fungus?
Sully: He was here?
Randall: Yeah...
Sully: What do you mean.....in trouble
Randall: I...just think we are......
Sully looked at him.
Sully: You...ok?
Randall: I'm fine!
Sully:....Ok...
Mike: Sully did I miss something?
Randall: Lets...go..
*
There was an apartment around the street which Randall, Mike, and Sully had paid to stay in. It was raining outside. It was the raining season in there world. Sully was on one of the three beds while Randall was standing, hardly moving because of the pain in his body, with Mike.
Randall: You what!!!!!
Mike: I...umm...
Randall: Used my money to gamble!!!!!
Mike: What were you going to do with it?
Randall: Don't cross me!
Sully was listening, but had his mind on....other things.
A few minutes later the two stopped. Mike was asleep and Randall went to a wall but then looked at Sully.
Randall: Oh give it up Sullivan!!
Sully turned to him.
Sully: What....?
Randall: Your thinking about....Err! That kid!
Sully:...
Randall put his 4 hands on the wall.
Randall: I still go by what I said..
Sully:...
Randall climes up the wall.
Sully:....
*
Mike was still asleep, Randall had refused to sleep with the two so he just slept on the wall. Sully was sleeping but was dreaming of his thoughts. He clinched his teeth a little....then...
Sully: AHHH!
Mike woke up and Randall fell from where he was sleeping.
Mike: Sully?
Sully: (Heavy breathing!)
Randall got up, his whole body in pain.
Randall: You little....EHHH!
Sully: It....was a dream...
Randall: That's what you woke me for!!!!!???
Randall laid against the wall and sat down.
Mike: What....was it?
Sully: It...was about...
Randall got up and went to the window, holding his stomach.
Randall: That kid....
Mike: Sully....we'll find her....
Randall: Hopefully not
Mike: Besides we need to get some sleep...
Mike: Now that Lizard Boy's awake...
Randall growled at Mike.
Mike slips back to sleep. Sully got up and sat on his bed, making sure Mike was asleep, and looked at Randall.
Sully: Sorry...
Randall showed halve of his face while looking out at the rain...
Randall: I told you I won't forgive you.....
Sully: I mean...the play...
Randall turned his face, hiding his face from Sully.
Sully: I know you were there before you ruined it...
Randall:.....
Sully: Years back....
*
Stage of: "Put That Thing Back Where It Came From Or So Help Me...."
Mikes company play was playing again. So far, the audience had cried and laughed. Sully had asked Randall if he would come but he denied it. Sully was watching a scene from behind the curtain, the scene with Mike and two other monsters portraying Randall. Sully thought the play was going pretty well but....
Sully:...Huh?
He looked ahead on the opposite side of the stage.....seeing Randall standing there, behind the curtains so no one could see him.
Sully:???
He didn't know he was coming. Randall now had an expression of anger, showing that he should portray himself, but...also showing everyone what had happen to him was humiliating....
Sully:......
Booing came from the audience every time they saw the him being portrayed in the play. This fused with Randall's anger with sorrow.....
Sully could see this. He felt some sorrow as well...and...guilt. When the play ended, Sully bowed and looked over to see Randall, still there. Randall looked at him....he did the same growl that he did when Waternoose had told him Sullivan was better than him. Randall slowly turned and went out. Sully looked down to the floor.....
*
Sully:.....
Randall still had his head away from Sullies, a hurt expression on his face.
Sully: (Sigh)
Randall:....To believe....how many I know....hate me....
Sully:!!!
Sully had never heard anything like that from Randall.
Randall: Hmph....Maybe I just needed to be Top Scarer...
Sully realized what he meant. Although, it might not, it may be true.....Sully was a close friend of closely everyone....but Randall....
Sully:...
He also realized that in the past years, people have used Randall's name as either a joke or put down......
He never knew how much he had made life worse for Randall....
Sully slowly went into his bed but before heading to sleep...
Sully: (Softly) Sorry....
He went to sleep...
Randall: (So a joke is how you see me?....)
Randall: (I'll show you all....I'll do it myself!)
*
As Randall stood there...he thought. His past had led him to more anger. He didn't get respect for any of his hard work he did for M.I. Then Sully and Mike ruined his plan, and sent him to the one heck created for monsters. Then in the other world he was tormented. And at his home, he was made a joke of.
Randall:(Breathing steadily)
Sully, Mike, and the rest have made a worse life for him to live. But he figured he saved Sully from the fire because he didn't want it to be used against him. He lost his machine, plan, glory, job, and everything he had worked so hard on. Even his scare record didn't matter. But that led to a simple question that Sully did not answer....Why did he keep his photo? Did he use it to just as his first of "Villain's Banished List" or something. Or.....was it another reason?
Randall turned to Sully, who is sleeping.
Randall: (Growl)
*
Early Morning
Randall was still awake, and had gotten something from the table near Mike, and looked at Sully.
Randall: Too bad, I have no use for you...
He leaves.
*
Randall exited, seeing the streets still busy.
Randall: Ok...
He looked at the nearby stores and noticed a tuxedo store.
Randall: A little class will never hurt...
He went to it.
*
(Ding)
Owner: Oh....hello sir
Randall: I'm looking for a tuxedo or something with class
Owner: Ah..oh your those 4 armed reptiles
Randall:???
Owner: I don't mean to delay..
Owner: But do you by any chance know Readagar?
Randall:...No...
Owner: Oh...Well it was his father that introduced us to his kind
The owner went into a shelf of cloths.
Owner: So we have been making suits for reptiles like you since then..
Owner: To keep up our business of course...
The owner handed Randall a tux that would fit him.
Randall: Might...I ask what happen to his father...?
Owner: Oh...
Owner: Good monster he was..
Owner: He passed away....reason...I do not know..
Randall:...Oh...
*
Randall paid and exited. He looked pretty spiffy in a suit. He looked like James Bond. Although he was purple...and sure he had fronds and he's a reptile, but hey the best you could get.
Randall: I'm going to have to thank Wazowski for leaving my money for me.
He undid one of the sleeves in the suit so it wasn't bugging his arms. The suit only reached the bottom of his lower hands.
Randall: Money, class, ok..
With no one looking, he changed his skin tone to red.
Randall: It just doesn't suit me...
He headed to the casino.
I have seen in many pictures and reviews on sites, that Randall would look good in a suit. So I figured up this. Next chapter will most likely be named "Boggs, Randall Boggs".
