Chapter Fifteen: Beginning of the End
"Oh for, what did you do this time?" Randall asked as the machine stopped.
"Ah, ah, I don't know. I calibrated the drive shift and," Fungus started stammering. Randall rolled his eyes and yelled, as he followed Fungus around the control area.
"GO CHECK THE MACHINE!"
"AH!" He yelped in surprise, hurrying over to the machine. "There, there, must be something wrong with the scream in-take valve."
"Ugh..." Randall looked down at the ground with an exasperated sigh to see a wire moving. "Huh?" With Fungus still jabbering on in the background, he crawled over the controls, onto the ground, and followed the wire to it's origin. When he found where it came from he saw that the plug had been pulled out. After putting it back in, he walked back over to the control area to see, not Wazowski, but Fungus undergoing the scream extractor. "What happened? Where's Wazowski!" But he gave no response, just flailed around wildly.
"Where is he!" Randall growled again, stopping the machine. Fungus wheezed several inaudible words and pointed down the hall. Hissing to himself, Randall stalked off quickly to find the olive before he said too much.
"Randall!" Halfway through the secret door, he heard his name being called. Randall turned around and saw Slike running up to him.
"What?"
"Sullevin and Wazowski, that way and," She panted pointing down the hall.
"Yeah I know!" He slipped past her trying to catch up.
"No you don't understand! Sullevin's kid, it's the human kid we're after!"
"WHAT?"
"When he opened the door to follow you in, I saw through the gap in the kid's hood, it wasn't a monster!"
"You follow them, I'll tell Waternoose." She nodded and was gone in an instant.
As a Scarer In Training was doing a test with scaring a robot, Randall walked into the scare testing room. He saw Mr. Waternoose by the TV's showing the new monster in the room and went over to him.
"Mr. Waternoose, I need to speak with you." He said quietly, glaring at the S.I.T sitting in chairs, taking notes on what to do and what not to do while scaring.
"Sure, what is it you want, my boy?" Waternoose replied walking out of the other monster's ear shot.
"Sullevin and Wazowski know about the extractor, and they have the kid!"
"What? How could you let them,"
"I didn't let them, believe me. Knowing Sullevin he's going to be coming to you." Waternoose looked down sadly.
"Yes I know he will. The only way to keep them quiet is banishment." Randall swallowed and looked over at the door. That's what he had been threatened with, if he didn't make the machine. Being banished and other horrible things. "Take this," Waternoose handed him a card key. "It's the banishment key, blend yourself and wait by the station. Slide it through when you get there, but don't call for it just yet. I'll do that." Randall nodded and blended himself, doing as he was told.
When Sullevin and Wazowski charged in, Randall watched them from by the station waiting to get this over with. He had to admit Waternoose was a good actor. He really did seem to care and be sympathetic about the kid.
"Ah, sir that's not her door." Wazowski pointed out with a suspicious look on his face.
"I know, I know," Waternoose started. Randall took this as his cue to reappear and open the door. As the cold snow blew against him he nearly started shivering. "It's yours." Sullevin and Wazowski gasped and Waternoose took their surprise to act. Randall stepped to the side, as his boss shoved them through. When Waternoose shut the door, Randall deactivated the station immediately.
"Take her." His boss growled thrusting the kid, roughly into Randall's arms. Waternoose turned and walked off. Randall looked down at the kid, sighed, and started back to the basement.
Randall walked through the atrium, earning several odd stares, in the process. He ignored everyone, and went back down the long hallway that led to the machine room. A few minutes later, Slike fell into sink beside him.
"Where's Sullevin and Wazowski? I lost them after I left you." She said as her eyes fell upon the kid.
"Waternoose banished them." Randall said.
"What?"
"Yeah, here." He handed the kid to her causing Slike to stop. She looked down at the little girl and swallowed hard. The kid sobbed slightly and put her arms around Slike's neck, hanging on as if for dear life.
"Uh.." She pulled her head back looking from the kid to Randall.
"Boggs, where are you!" Growled Mr. Waternoose's voice from down the hall.
"Let me take here, you get out before Waternoose sees you." Randall said taking the kid back. Before she left Slike leaned up and hugged him. Just as Waternoose came around the corner she vanished, but was still hugging him.
"Well what are you waiting for?! Let's go!" His boss snarled, right as Slike let go and was gone, Waternoose shoved past Randall heading towards the secret door.
After nearly everything was set up, and Randall was just finishing putting the restraints across the kid's hands, Waternoose decided to say something.
"Finally, I never should have trusted you with this! Because of you I had to banish my top Scarer!" He said accusingly.
"Ah, with this machine we won't need Scarers." Randall paused then finished, "Besides, Sullevin got what he deserved."
"Sullevin was TWICE the Scarer you'll ever be!" Randall was at this moment busy with the kid, he stopped dead and growled quietly, his eyes fixing Waternoose with a glare.
As Fungus started up the machine, a slow smile spread across Randall's face. Not what about what he was doing to the kid, but that is was all going to be over. But doesn't it just figure that right when the extractor was about to fix on the kid, Sullevin charged in and pushed it back, breaking the machine, and tossing it at Fungus, Waternoose, and himself.
"Sullevin?!" Spluttered Mr. Waternoose in surprise. Before the machine hit, Randall jumped onto the wall. But Waternoose, seeing as he can't really jump on walls was trapped. In this time Sullevin, ripped the restraint off the seat and picked the kid up.
"STOP HIM!" Ordered Waternoose. Growling, Randall blended himself and went after Sullevin.
What he loved so much about blending, was being able to do this. He stood right in front of Sullevin, with his fist pulled back, and the great lummox didn't stop. Right when he was close enough, Randall brought his fist forward giving Sullevin a hard left hook. Several more punches were thrown, and Sullevin wasn't even putting up a fight yet. Blue boy stopped looking around wildly but not behind him to see the scream tank rise into the air then slam down on the back of his head. He fell forward into the wall, and rolled over onto his back looking dazed. Uncurling down from one of the bars he was hanging on, Randall reappeared before Sullevin with a wide upside down grin on his face. Turning over so he wouldn't be seeing upside- down Randall said,
"You don't know how long I've wanted to do that SULLEVIN!"
As the oaf got to his feet and reached out to grab him, Randall pulled back and vanished again, laughing just to annoy him. Randall hit him several more times, then jumped up and kicked him hard, sending Sullevin down, sliding across the floor. Suddenly the olive, Wazowski appeared with several snowballs in his hand. 'Where are they coming from?' Randall asked himself.
While Wazowski carried on about something he wasn't even listening too, Sullevin tried to explain what was going on. But the olive didn't understand. Shrugging to himself, Randall punched Sullevin several more times. His knuckles were actually starting to get sore. Resting his knuckles, he grabbed Sullevin's arm pulled him forward, and slammed him into a boiler, (at least that's what I think it is.) and pulled one of his arms up behind his back. Randall had had that done to him before in fact, it was actually pretty painful. Releasing him, Randall got around in front of Sullevin and punched him again, as Sullevin swung around blindly hoping to hit him.
That was when Randall saw the pipe coming out of the boiler and got an idea. He climbed up onto it, waited for Sullevin to back up under it, then wrapped his body around Sullevin's neck. Coiling himself tighter, he was nearly lifting Sullevin off the ground now. Sullevin kept prying at his neck, trying to remove Randall, only making him constrict tighter. About now, Sullevin was giving up from lack of oxygen. His arms fell limply to his sides and he stopped gagging. Then something unexpected happened.
A poorly aimed, snowball hit him directly in the face. Blinking trying to get it out of his eyes, Sullevin back handed him. This knocked him out cold. Randall's eyes rolled up into his head, and he slipped off Sullevin's neck and onto the ground. Groaning he opened one eye then closed them as he tried to pull himself up.
"Get up! There can't be any witnesses!" He heard Waternoose yelling.
"There won't be!" Randall replied lifting himself up. Once he was sure Waternoose couldn't hear him he muttered to himself, "Why don't you get up and do it if you don't want anyone to know you stupid, egotistical," more muttering not for little ears.
"What?!" Randall looked up and saw Slike with a shocked expression on her face. "I didn't know you put those words together in one sentence." he did not need this right now. His left eye twitched slightly and he growled again. Slike backed up a step as her fronds went down against her head.
"Don't look at me like that." He said brushing past her heading down a hallway.
"They went the other way." Randall stopped turned around, but she was gone, Fungus running after him in her place. He swallowed and picked up speed, he'd make it up to her later.
Just as he was coming out of the corridor, some idiot with a cart of scream tanks got in their way. Having not much time to think, Randall tried to jump it, but missed knocking several tanks off. Fungus yelped and jumped over a few tanks that rolled in front of him. Strangely several of the tanks move and swerved by themselves, not the way normal falling tanks would.
"Idiot!" He snarled trying to get after Sullevin and Wazowski before they got too far away. As he came onto the scare floor, he looked around and then spotted just who he was looking for. "There they are!" Then the intercom came on, he wasn't really listening until they said his name.
"Attention employees, Randall Boggs has just broken the all time scare record!"
"Huh?" Randall asked looking up. He tried to continue forward, but was suddenly mobbed by monsters wanting to thank him. "No I didn't! Get out of my way! Get off my tail! Let me through!" He finally broke through the monsters and headed straight for Sullevin. Suddenly Sullevin hit the eject button and all the doors were taken back.
And so now the door game began. Randall found himself going to several different countries in the chase for the stupid kid. Japan, Hawaii or somewhere tropical, and the weirdest of all France. It's not that he didn't like France but the going through and then falling to the side was kind of weird. Anyway, he finally grabbed the kid and let Sullevin and Wazowski drop. That was great. He thought he was finally rid of those two but no they just had to live. When he saw Sullevin nearly on top of him, Randall thought fast and jumped through the door into a kid's room. Setting the kid down and getting up onto the ceiling waiting for Sullevin. Swinging down, he brought Sullevin down and sent him out the door, hanging onto the rim. After an exchange of words and Randall attempting to knock Sullevin out the door, one of the most embarrassing things ever to happen to him occurred. He was beaten, by a kid.
It made no sense what so ever. She was terrified of him, then it all vanished? To this day everyone and then his fronds get sore. And the nerve. the nerve of Sullevin to hold him by the neck like some common serpent. Randall if he had been able to would have killed him, he could have killed that that....
But how he was going to kill Sullevin was not one of his worries right now. His main worry was the door open in front of him and the pushing, oh excuse, throwing sensation he was going through. Randall struggled as hard as possible to get away but it wasn't much use. He went soaring through the door landing with a thud in the kid's room. He rolled over several times before crashing into a wall.
* * * *
In the monster world however things were different. While Sullevin and Wazowski went being all goodie two shoes trying to return the kid, Slike was panicking.
She'd seen them go into the door vault but didn't get back there soon enough. Busting through a pair of doors looking around frantically she saw them. Sullevin and Wazowski playing baseball with Randall. Cold hatred and anger boiled over inside of her chest. Then she was the door, and all the anger and hatred Slike had felt was gone in an instant, and something like. terror, fear, or a feeling of horror at what was about to happen coursed through her veins.
"No don't do it!" She yelled but they didn't hear her. Slike felt herself take a sharp intake of breath as Randall was thrown roughly through the door. After that breath she couldn't breath. It got worse as Wazowski sent the door over the edge crashing on the floor.
Slowly she turned around sinking down to a sitting position. Trying to breathe again she felt under water as her vision became blurred. Slike pulled both bottom set's of knees up and rapped her tail around her. She couldn't hold it anymore and the tears came pouring out. They'd banished him, illegally. Even if it had been legal that didn't matter, it wasn't fare.
Swallowing hard, she stood up blinking to rid her eyes of the tears. Turning to look over the balcony again she could see the shattered pieces still at the bottom. Breathing in, she set her eyes colder than ever, and went out to find her target.. Wazowski and Sullevin.
Thanx for the reviews guys! Yall are great!!!! ^_^ Sorry this one took a while too, went snow boarding. Hope ya liked it! Next chappy up soon.
