Chapter 8 Coming Home
Allen:.....
Allen was in the living room, flicking through a shelf of movies.
Allen: Jeez....I've never seen that one...
Kevin's voice: RRRAGGHH!
Allen:!!!
Allen dropped the tape in his hand and ran upstairs.
*
Allen stopped when he reached Kevin's room. Kevin was standing, his back to Allen. Kevin had extended his top left hand out, the paper in it. Kevin didn't even move.
Kevin: Take....a look....at...this!
Allen:...
Allen went over and got the paper.
Allen: Yeah...it has this kid...
Kevin turned his face a quarter of the way to Allen.
Kevin: Turn it...and look closer....
Allen turned it sideways and focused.
Allen:!!!!! Wazowski!?!?!?
Kevin: Yes!
Allen: Wha...what does this mean!?
Kevin turned around, an anger look in his eye, one that Allen had never seen in him before.
Kevin: They brought that...that kid in!!
Kevin: And my dad wanted her!
Kevin: If dad was really concerned, he would have gotten the kid, and would still be here!
Kevin: Meaning Sully and Mike lied to me!
Kevin: Which means....(gasp)
Kevin stopped, his face turning grim....and feared...
Allen: What!?
Kevin: The....ectoplasm on the door...
Kevin: It means only one thing....
Kevin: They banished my dad!!!!
Allen: WHAT!? How!?
Kevin: Dad wanted the kid!
Kevin: Sully and Mike brought the kid here!
Kevin: Sully must have wanted to keep her from my dad!
Kevin: So they got rid of him!
Allen: Hold it! That's illegal! They can't do that!
Kevin: I know enough!
Allen:....But...if its true...then that means....Randall is...
Kevin gripped all of his hands, making fists.
Kevin: That Sullivan! He lied to me! He will pay dearly!
Allen: Kevin! What are you thinking!?
Allen was really concerned, never seeing this side of Kevin before...Kevin on the other hand looked at him, anger in his eyes.
Kevin: First....I'm getting my dad out of that world!
Kevin: He shouldn't be there!
Kevin ran past Allen and rushed down. Allen followed as the front door closed. Allen stopped and placed on his coat, and grabbed Kevin's.
*
Kevin was outside in the cold, running as fast as he could.
Allen: Kevin!
Kevin stopped.
Kevin: What Allen!?
Allen came up behind him.
Allen: You forgot your coat...
Kevin: So?!
Allen: Come on! This winter weather could kill you!
Kevin: Fine!
He grabs the coat and puts it on. Knowing that Allen was concerned for him, he decreased his anger.
Allen: Where we going!?
Kevin: Where I should have gone to in the first place....
*
Kevin and Allen stopped at a large building. A globe of the monster world outside, spinning in the night....
Allen: Human World Information Department...
Kevin: They learn about....that world...
Kevin: They also keep track of banished monsters...
Kevin: If I can find where there tracking them....I can find my dad...
Kevin: Come on....
The room they entered in was bright with overhead lights. The room was white, a blue stripe of color at the bottom of the walls. Pictures on the walls, potted plants here and there. Ahead was an information desk. Kevin tried to keep back his anger...
Kevin: E....Excuse me..
An octopus type monster turned to there attention.
Monster: Yes?
Kevin:...Where's the room where th banished monsters are being tracked?
Monster: Oh....sorry....those rooms are restricted...
Kevin:!!!! But I have family there...
Monster:...I'm sorry...you can't...
Kevin:!!!..........Excuse me...
Kevin dragged Allen over behind one of the large plotted plants.
Allen: What do we do?
Kevin: You distract her, and I'll get into that elevator..
He signaled the elevator to the right of the desk.
Allen: Alright....
Kevin camouflaged as Allen placed on his "Charm" face and went over to the monster. He placed his left arm onto the table and gave a certain look in the eye.
Allen: Say....did anyone ever tell you that..
He tried to come up with anything...
Allen: You.....have beautiful eyes?
The monster turned. But to Allen not being much observant, she had pure black eyes.
Monster: Well...thank you sir..
Monster: I was never told that before...
Allen: ( I wonder why......)
Monster: I never had a conversation with a male in a long time...
Allen: Well...how about we have one now?
Meanwhile, Kevin had slinked himself over to the elevator on all eight limbs, and he slowly lifted his top right hand and placed it upward to the down switch.
Allen: So....
Allen: What's it like being a....octopus like...thingy?
Monster: Well...
(Ding!)
Kevin clenched his teeth.
Monster: What was that?
Allen coughed immediately at that.
Allen: (Fake coughing) I just have a...
(Ring)
Allen: Oh...there it goes again...
Kevin: (Allen...)
The door's opened and Kevin went in.
Monster: You sure your alright.
Allen: Uh...yeah...
*
The elevator stopped and the doors opened, and Kevin got out. He was in a red hallway, carpet on the floor, with various pictures on the wall, and vases set upon stools. He got onto his four feet, became visible, and studied the map that was on the wall opposite of the elevator.
Kevin: Corridor 12..
He slowly made his way to the destination. He stopped at a red door
Kevin: " World Tracer Unit"...
He entered.
*
Inside was a huge machine, a large computer, and many video screens. Kevin went over to the computer and looked under, "Banished monster search".
Computer voice: Please key in name..
Kevin typed in Randall's name...The machine's job was to keep track of banished monsters in the human world. When the monster is banished, they are keyed in here, and kept track of. Mostly there condition.
(Beep)
Computer voice: No match found...
Kevin: What!? There not keeping track of him!?
Kevin: But...huh?
Kevin could feel something in his coat.
Kevin:!!!
He placed his hand in the pocket and pulled out the ectoplasm stained door piece.
Kevin:!!! Thank you Allen!
He placed it into a machine similar to D.N.A machine at Jeff's lab.
Computer:.....Scan completed...
Computer: Searching for D.N.A match...
Computer: D.N.A match....found...
Up popped a screen.
Kevin:!!!!!!!!
*
Back at the desk, Allen was winning the game of words.
Allen: In each class I was voted the handsome guy of the year...
Monster: What I need is a big strong guy....
Allen stopped, not thinking to be a boyfriend of...well..
Allen: Uh...umm..
The elevator opened and, a moment later, Allen felt a force grip his left hand and pull him.
Monster: Maybe dinner at 8:00?
Allen:!!!??? I'll think about it!
*
Outside, Allen was pulled to the nearest street light.
Allen: Ow Kev...
Kevin turned visible.
Kevin: Allen!
Allen could see that Kevin had a feared and sad face, mixed with anger and hate.
Allen: What's wrong!?
Kevin: They weren't keeping track of my dad!
Allen:!!!!
Kevin: And....he's....barely alive!
Allen: What!?
Kevin: I got to save him before some human kills him!
Allen: How!?
Kevin: I know where he is now come on!
*
Kevin and Allen had made it to Monsters Inc. and had entered Floor G.
Allen: Umm...why are we in G?
Kevin: Sully did this!
Kevin: I don't want to risk him hurting my dad!
Kevin ran to the nearest station and operated it. He had found the card he needed and swiped it through the slot.
Kevin: Allen....I need you to permanently
Allen: Permanently?
The door locked itself in the station.
Kevin: Just be the look out!
Kevin went inside...
*
Kevin slowly closed the door and got onto all eight limbs. He turned seeing a kid sleeping in a small bed. As Kevin observed, he could see he was in a trailer....
Kevin: (Dad where are you...)
He turned up a bit to see a window on the wall to the right of him, open.
Kevin: Ah...
He attached to the wall and went outside.
*
Outside, the ground was wet and soggy. It was night as well. Many trailers were here and there, making this a small trailer park.
Kevin: Must be around here...
He went over to the next nearest trailer, and looked around.
Kevin: Dad...come one.....where...
He turned a corner....
(Bump!)
Kevin:!!!!
Kevin back away from the bump. He had a shock of fear that a human bumped into him, because he could tell that some of the people in the trailers were awake.
Kevin: Ehh!
He covered himself from attack.
Voice: No....It can't be
Kevin:!!!!
Voice: Son...
Kevin:!!!!
Kevin unshielded himself.
Kevin:!!!!!
There, in front of him,......was Randall..
Kevin: Dad!!!!
Kevin got out from the mud and hugged him as hard as he could. Randall placed his arms around him as well, tears coming down his cheeks, and down to the ground.
Randall: Son....I never thought I would see you again...
Kevin: Dad....I missed you!
Kevin: I thought you would die dad....
Randall: No...never...
Randall: I love you son.....
Kevin: (Sniffle) Dad...
Kevin cried as well, finally having his father back in his arms again.....Soon, after much time...Randall stopped and backed away, he placed his top hands on Kevin's shoulders. He dried off a tear coming down Kevin's face...
Randall: Son......there is much I have to tell you...
Kevin:...!!!
Kevin could now see Randall's body, the light near them illuminating Randall.
Kevin: Dad! What happen to you!?
Randall: I.....I had been....I...can't say....
Kevin:...Dad....lets go...before th humans kill you...
Randall: I don't think I can even run....or walk...
Randall: I'd been caught in a trap.....
Kevin looked at his legs, seeing they were bleeding.
Kevin:!!!!! Dad...I'll get you home...
Kevin moved beside Randall. he placed Randall's right hands behind his neck and pulled him up.
Kevin: Its ok dad....were together again...
Kevin: And your coming home...
Kevin lifted him up, Randall's feet seeming lifeless...
Kevin: (He's alive!....Dad...)
Randall: (What am I going to tell him.....)
Randall: (I don't want him to go through what I did....)
*
Allen was eagerly pacing back and forth, wanting to know if Kevin was safe or not....soon...he got his answer....the door creped open and Allen turned to it.
Allen:...!!!
Coming out, was Kevin...with Randall....
Allen: Randall!!!!???
Allen went over to both of them and helped Kevin with Randall.
Allen: Randall! What happen to you!?
Randall: I'll....explain...
Randall: When we get home...Allen.....
Allen looked at Randall, unsure of being sad or happy...or angry toward Sullivan. Kevin on the other hand had the mix of the feelings.........
Kevin: Its ok dad...I'll take care of you....were back home...
Randall: (Home...again.......)
Randall: (With my son...)
Randall: (But.....Sullivan.....)
Kevin: (He's alive....but what about.....what happen...)
Allen: (I knew Sully was keeping something from Kevin....but I didn't expect this!)
*
That's right! Randall has returned! But....what will happen now? Randall wants revenge, but what will Kevin and Allen do? And what if Sully and Mike find out about this? Will they force themselves to take force against Randall....... and....Kevin?
