Ext. Sky - Several Feets from Ground Level
(Tense Instrumental Music Plays)
In the sky, two large size caterpillar robots were airborne as one sensed presence scanning thier direction. Each carrying their captives on their backs acting as spiders holding thier weebed prey, mainly netted hostages Lindsey and Sandy. The 1st caterpillar looked in the direction and glowed its eyes.
Throughout the eyes, a grid activated and zooms in on the subject identifying them as Daffy and Lola on one motorcycle trying to locate them.
The caterpillars eyes seized its glowing and opened a huge compartment from its belly. 5 hooks unleashed from the belly carrying what looks like metallic yellow and black balls.
The caterpillar unhooks the balls, having them fall free in the air.
The balls spinned and converted open in the form of bumble-bee like robots with stingers for missiles and such and eyes for lasers and scan if neccessary. The antennas of the bee bots indicates for signals as they soared down buzzing to their enemies.

Ext. Streets
On the streets, Daffy was riding the cycle while Lola was riding behind him. They were still searching for the caterpillars that captured Lindsey and her friend.
"Any luck?!" Lola asked beyond the roaring engines of the cycle.
"Not even a heartbeat!"
Suddenly, Daffy sensed something and before Lola picked up on it, Daffy looked and saw a black stinger soaring towards them.
His eyes eiden.
"Whoa!"
Lola looked in front of them before Daffy swerved to the side, while the missile soars passed them and blew a car apart in a big explosion.
Parts of the car hits the ground while flames engulfed the partial destroyed vehicle.
Ext. Streets - Several Miles Away
Several miles away, Bugs turned a street and hardly missed the explosion far away from his position.
Ext. Streets - Several Miles Ahead
Daffy regained control of the cycle as Lola regained her balance.
"What was that?!" She asked
"That was a missile!"
"I know that! Who shot it?!"
Daffy's pupil enlarged as his sight zoomed in for a close look at 5 robotic bees heading towards their position at a fast pace.
Daffy's pupil retracted and had a shocked expression on his face.
"Holy cow! We got a bug problem!"
Daffy reached to the side and took out a handgun from its metallic holster. He searched for a button for cruise control and eventually found it before pressing the button.
"Cruise Control activated." A computer voice replied
Daffy unholsters another sidearm from the other side and held them both in hands. He issued a toothy grin in determination.
"Let's mangle. (to Lola) Hang on!"
Lola hung on and as soon as they were in range, Daffy aimed forward, pulled the trigget rapidly, and fired at his targets.
But miraculously, the robotic bees evades the lasers in a blurring flying maneuver that could make anyone dizzy at the moment.
Daffy grips his teeth in frustraion trying to land a laser fire on these robots.
As soon as Daffy stops firing for a second, the bees speedily soared down towards their targets.
Daffy noticed and both he and Lola ducks as the insectoids passed them up.
The bees soared to the air as they were now zooming behind them, continuing pursuit.
Lola turned and saw them.
"Uh...Daffy?"
"Yeah, they're behind us." He said
He hands lola the gun from his left hand, and picked up the intercom.
"Distract them!" Daffy ordered
"Got it!"
Lola aimed and started firing, giving Daffy more time.
Ext. Streets - Not Far Away
Not far from them, Bugs rode on his cycle passed buildings, parked cars, and stores as his intercom beeped to life. He picked it up.
"Yeah!"
"Bugs, we got a problem!" Daffy said, from intercom
"Yeah, I know! I'm several feets behind dem!"
Three insectoids stopped their position and turned towards Bugs' position due to their senses. Their eyes glowed before they soared to the position.
Bugs was still on the intercom and could hardly missed the speeding bees heading towards his position.
"And dey just spotted me!"
"They got a hell of a evasive maneuver! So, be careful!" Daffy said, from intercom
"Right! Bugs out!" He puts the intercom back in and grips the handles on the cycle revving the vehicle some more.
As he accelerates faster, so does the bees. But the bees halted their speed and extended their stingers pointing in Bugs' direction. They fired all at once.
Bugs noticed with widen eyes.
"Oh, crap."
Bugs quickly swerves out the way of the soaring missiles as they passed him up and explodes on the concrete creating a crater, tearing concretes from the streets.
Bugs rode on the sidewalk, while people scatters out the way of the motorcycling rabbit. One human hid in the mailbox from the soaring motorcycle.
Two guy were carrying a wide inch glass out of a building. Unaware of what was happening.
"Look Out!" Bugs shouted
The two guys gazed to the side before Bugs soared the motorcycle through the now shattered glass. Shards of it splashing on the ground. The robotic bees follow afterwards as the two mens waves their hands up in frustration.
Bugs rode off the sidewalk at the same time the bees did, buzzing over the mid air over the streets. Bugs took out a gun from the side and aims behind him before firing.
Even though Daffy told him about their evasive maneuver, Bugs wanted to distract them long enough to make a get away.
The bees evade at a fast pace, flying pass the lasers in a blur.
(Horn Honks 2x)
Bugs looks forward and his eyes bugged out as a metro bus with a few people inside was in his way.
The 1st bee extended its stinger as each sides of the stinger opened up showing a smaller stinger in replacement for it. The stinger started spinning as the bee fires it.
Bugs hardly noticed the stinger soaring his way, but he swerved out the way of the bus, having the stinger hitting the front of the bus under the window.
Bugs was now riding at the side of the bus.
Int. Metro Bus
The driver was suddenly losing control of the bus as the monitors on the console started to short out.
"What the hell?"
The bus then stopped dead in its track. Everyone started murmuring due to this sudden ordeal.
They were so worried that they hardly noticed the insectoids hovering from their sights to the top of the bus.
Ext.
Bugs passed the bus as he looked back and saw the bees heading towards him. But one of them was following him while the other two extended magnetic cables from their belly. They attached to the top of the bus and with all their strength, lifted the bus up in mid-air.
Bugs looked up and saw this in shock.
"Oh, no."
Bugs was really in a pickle. Now he got a lot to do.
Int. Metro Bus
Many people screamed due to the rumbling of the bus. Luckily, they, including the driver has their seatbelts on to maintain balance.
MEANWHILE
Meanwhile, Daffy hands Lola the clip mag and replaced one in the gun.
"What do you want me to do with this?!"
"Toss it!"
Lola strugs and does so.
As the clip was tossed in the air, the first bee opened its belly before the mag was thrown in it. Suddenly...
(Beep Beep!)
(Explosion!)
The 1st bee exploded on impact and crashes to the ground inches from them as Lola and Daffy looked back in total surprise.
"Geez, talk about a stomach ache!" Lola jestered as Daffy nods. "You got another?!"
Lola looked at Daffy, who was looking over her shoulder in shock.
"Uh...Daffy!"
Daffy was silence and pointed behind Lola. She looked behind her and was shocked to find a bus hovering over them while the two bees suspended the bus filled with a few frightened people.
"Oh, my god." Lola said
(Intercom Beeps)
Despite his shocked state, Daffy picked up the intercom.
"Bugs, you're not gonna believe this!"
"I know! I'm going afta it right now!"
"A little reminder! Use the clips on our pursuers! They're explosives!" He explained while taking control of the cycle once again.
Apparently, the cycle was in cruise control the entire time driving Daffy and Lola around without a single accident.
Despite her expression, Lola released a mag and tossed it aside. In the same fashion, the single bee opened its compartment, allowing the cartridge to enter.
As soon as the compartment closed, the insectoid exploded on impact in a burst of flames and crashed on the streets.
(Wide Open Scene)
Bugs rode faster pass Daffy and Lola as the bees were almost on the verge of ascending higher into the sky with the bus.
Bugs looked at the rear-view and saw the other insectoid chasing after him.
"Oops. Forgot about you."
He reached in the inside pocket of his coat and took out an empty clip mag. He swiftly tossed it aside as the bee saw this and halts its stop before he could stop and fire a missile. Its compartment opened and the clip entered.
The clip ruptured and caused the robot to explode on impact in a bust of flame before it crashed to the ground maximizing the damage.
Bugs soon noticed the bus ascending and looked to find a ramp somewhere. Anywhere. He found one a few feet away behind a pickup truck.
Bugs smiled and accelerates faster on the cycle.
As soon as the airborne bus passed the pickup truck, Bugs' cycle soared over the ramp and was now airborne.
(SLOW MOTION)
As on cue, Bugs made a daring jump from the cycle and grasps onto the side roof ledge of the bus.
(REGULAR MOTION)
As he hung by the windows, his cycle crashed through a car's back windshield, setting off the alarm.
Bugs looked through the window and saw a few peoples inside the bus, scared out of their minds.
When they saw Bugs, he smiled a toothy grin and waves.
"What's up, group?"
Bugs looked up and saw the two bees ascending the bus upward. Unnoticed of his presence.
Bugs was in it hard. If he'd disable the cables, the bus will fall and it only takes two to hold the bus up.
Bugs thinks for a moment before he gazed to the side and noticed a tall 30 story skyscaper up ahead. He smiled and looked through the window at the civilians and to the driver.
"Tell everyone to hang on!" He shouted as the bees started to ascend higher into the sky.
This took several minutes and as soon as they were in range of the rooftop of the building, Bugs forced himself up and flips to his feet on the top of the bus. As soon as that happened, the insectoids caught sight of him with their glowing yellow eyes.
Throughout the eyes, a yellow grid scanned Bugs' full feature staring at him.
Two combat knife extends from the sleeves of Bugs' coat. Bugs took them by handle as he gazed up at the bees.
"Time ta cut loose!"
In a swift movement, he crossed his arms and threw the knives to both sides cutting the cables loose and causing the bus to drop from the sky.
Int. Metro Bus
Everyone hung on to their chairs as it fell trying their best from screaming.
Ext.
As soon as the bus falls, the cables retracted inside the bees belly compartment and closed afterwards. They soared back after the bus as Bugs noticed and took two clips from his pocket. He gestures it to the bees.
"Got a snack for ya!" He tossed the beeping clips in the sky as the compartments opened letting the mags in the bees belly.
In the same fashion earlier, the two insectoids exploded on impact at the same time the bus crashed land on the rooftop of the skyscraper building, shaking the bus violently as everyone hung on to their seats.
Bugs kept his balance as he stands and jumped off the top of the bus. He lands in a crouch and stands.
"Whew! Now dat...was un-bee-lievable. Heh, heh, heh."
Bugs turned and approached the bus. He opened the door and stepped aside as a few people piled out of the bus, cheering and whooping.
The driver came out as well and saw Bugs, who smiled.
"You guys alright?"
The driver nods.
"Yeah. (extends hand) Thanks a lot."
Bugs takes it.
"Eh, don't mention it. Savin' folks from flying buses is what I do best." Bugs jestered before chuckling.
Ext. Streets
Daffy and Lola were looking around for Bugs and the bus. So far, they didn't find anything.
"You see him?!" Lola asked
"Nope!"
(Horn Honks)
Headlights shoned slightly on them as Daffy swerved to the side, stopping in front of the stopping hover vehicle.
The vehicle lowers to the ground before the engines shut off.
Daffy and Lola looked forward seeing the front door opened and Damon stepped out.
Daffy and Lola were a bit surprised by this.
"Damon, what are you doing here?"
Damon closed the door and approaches them.
"Thought you guys might need help." He said as he stopped in front of them.
Daffy and Lola got off the cycle as Damon looked around.
"Where's Bugs?"
"Did you see a flying bus?" Daffy asked
Damon paused and realized it.
"Oh, okay. He was on the bus?"
Daffy and Lola nods.
"Where is he now?" He asked
Before Daffy could answer, a hand tapped his shoulder causing Daffy to flinch.
"Eh, what's up, damie?"
Bugs arrived behind Daffy and Lola, to their sudden surprise.
Damon, however, was beyond surprise. But shook it off.
"You know what? I'm not even gonna know how you got here so fast."
"Heh, heh." Bugs chuckled
"Anyway, what happened?" Damon asked
"We'll explain in da car. Daffy, ditch da cycle."
"Why? It's my favorite cycle."
"Listen, I got rid of mine by trying ta get to dat bus to save a few bystanders. It's only fair dat you do yours."
Daffy shakes his head.
"No, screw that. I'm not getting rid of mine because you did."
Bugs turns to Lola.
"Lola..."
Daffy noticed with widen eyes. Apparently, he doesn't want a piece of lola. Who wouldn't.
"On second thought, why not?" He said, immediately parking the cycle by the sidewalk.
Bugs watched him and smirks.
"Works every time." He said as Daffy approached him with a disgust look in his eyes.
"You're despicable." He muttered while passing Bugs towards the car.
"Heh, heh. Don't I know it."
The three specimens and Damon waltzes over to the car and got in.
Damon starts the engines and switched to hover mode on the car. The car hovered inches from the ground before they drove out of sight.
Int. Car - Seconds Later
"What?!" Damon asked after hearing Bugs' explaination on what happened
"Lindsey was kidnapped again. 'Dis time, with a friend."
Damon sighs deeply and shakes his head.
"Man. You know, one day, I'm gonna change address."
Bugs and Daffy snickers, but then cleared their throats going back to seious matters.
"Look, Damon, we're gonna get her back, but we gotta do something first."
"What?"
"Well, first..."
Within a blind of an eye, Bugs swiftly threw a chop to Lola's neck rendering her unconscious to Damon and Daffy's surprise.
"What the hell are you doing?" Daffy asked
Bugs grabs Lola and examines her neck.
"She's bugged."
"What?!" Damon and Daffy said, unison
"It's da same thing dat happend to me. How'd ya think dey knew where we were at da apartment? Or tracked us down here?"
"As I recall correctly, you ran like a bat out of hell when you figured that Lindsey was kidnapped." Daffy stated
Bugs paused with embarassment.
"Oh. (clears throat) But like I said, they probably tracked us down to keep us away from da kidnappers."
He continues searching amd enlarges his pupils. His pupil enlarges and, like X-ray, could see a rapidly blinking device connected to the outer part of the neck in the bloodstream.
"I need a cutting tool."
Damon reached in the glove compartment and took out a scapel. He hands it to Daffy, who gave it to Bugs.
"What are you gonna do?" Daffy asked
"Operation." Bugs replied, keeping his eyes on Lola's neck.
Bugs started to operate on the neck, trailing the scapel interlocking a circle, which was easy.
Daffy watched with fright and disgust.
"My God."
Bugs used the scapel to peel the skin loose, exposing the hole inside the neck. Bugs bit his tongue as he digs deeper into the neck for the device. Unlike the device that was in his neck, this one was a little harder to nab. After a few minutes, Bugs finally got it out at the tip of the scapel.
He gazed it sternly as did Daffy.
"Gotcha." Bugs said
Daffy whistles in astounishment.
Bugs gave the scapel to Daffy, who took the chip off and was aboutto pocket it before Bugs quickly noticed.
"No, no, destroy it. It'll keep 'em off our track."
"Oh."
Daffy bared his hand tightly crushing the tracking device to bits.
"Damon, got a knitting tool?"
"In the middle compartment."
Bugs reached and opened the compartment. He quickly scrambles through and took out a needle and some silver strings.
"By the way, what's your second course of action?" Damon asked
"We're going to see Dr. McCloud on 'dis guy." Bugs said as he starts to reconnect the skin to Lola's neck.
"You think he'll talk?" Damon asked
"Heh, heh. Oh, he'll talk."

Ext.
The two robotic caterpillars arrived at Espionage and landed on the building's rooftop. Two separate hangars lowered from the rooftop.
Int.
The hangars lowered to the inside of an upstairs hidden large room where banks of monitors were around the lowering hangars.
On the far right and left corners, technicians were working on monitors.
A double door opened and Kudrow walked in with 6 of his dark dressed human henchmens. They approached the robotic caterpillars, who deactivated the spider-like metallic legs from their unconscious captives.
Lindsey and Sandy were still netted inside as Kudrow stopped in front of the caterpillars and gazed the hostages. He smirked and chuckled.
"I guess negoiations are in order." He chuckled as well as the henchmens did.
Lindsey was semi-conscious as she looked and saw her kidnappers before drifting her eyes close.
Cut To:
Int.
Inside a cell block, Dr. Alex McCloud sat in his cell ironically laying on his bed when a guard came up knocking on his cell with his baton.
Alex woke up after that.
"McCloud. You've got visitors."
"Is it mother?" He asked getting up from his bed.
The guard opens his cell door.
"If it's my brother, don't want to talk." He said as he exits his cell.
Int. Penetentiary Visiting Room
Few visiting people were behind windows while prisoners were on the other side conversing with them on phones. Like many people do to visit love ones that are in jail.
Bugs sat at the seat, while Daffy stood by him as he saw Alex approaching towards the otherside.
Alex was somewhat surprised to see Bugs and Daffy, but at the same time, a little bit dismayed. Alex could barely remember the last time he saw Bugs. Or as he solemnly called "Project X." And Daffy, he was his courier to infiltrate Bugs. Now his plan took a turn for the worst. Question is: Why would they visit him after three weeks?
Bugs picked up the phone with Alex doing the same and putting the receiver to his ear. Before Alex could sit down, Bugs pulled off a toothy grin and spoke.
"Eh...what's up, doc? Remember me?"
(Flashbacks - 3 Weeks Ago - McCloud's Lab)
A tazer stick was wiped out from the left sleeve of Bugs' coat before he aimed and shot Alex. The scientist eyes widen and before he could react, electricity sizzled around Alex's body.
"Aah!"
Alex flown across the room and lands on the ground tumbling behind the 3 giant robots.
(Flashbacks Ends)
Alex was seated as he spoke, trying to shake the thought from his head.
"Well, well, well. If it isn't my long lost specimen, Project X."
Bugs paused, then chuckles. He heard that so many times before.
"Heh, heh, heh. Y-You still can't seem to call me by my real name, can ya?"
Alex chuckled.
"It never occured to me. You don't even have a real name. You don't even exist."
Deeply offended, Daffy soon decided to step in, pointing at him as Bugs looks at him.
"Listen, bub, you shut your trap right now."
"Daffy..."
"Matter of fact, I should kick your despicable ass right here and now for what you did to me."
"Daffy..."
"But since you're behind this glass and in good care, I'm gonna let that comment you made towards Bugs slide for a moment, you hear?"
"Daffy!"
"Yes?" He answered smugly after lowering his finger with his hands on his hips.
"Thanks for the heads up. But I think I got it."
Daffy waves Bugs on as he looked at Alex again. Bugs was rather flattered that Daffy stood up for him on his behalf. His thoughts trailed off as he gave his attention back to Alex.
"Well, doc, like Daff said, dat "You don't even exist" comment is gonna slide from 'dis conversation. Right now, I wanna have a talk with you."
"About what? It's been long since anyone talked to me."
"Doc, it's been three weeks."
"It was long to me!" He almost shouted
"Okay." Bugs and Daffy said, unison
Alex scoffs.
"What do you want?"
"We want information on a guy. I think you know 'em."
"Oh, yeah?"
"Yeah."
"Don't know what you're talking about."
"Oh, no?"
"No."
"Maybe if I say da name, will dat help you?"
"That depends on who you're talking about."
"I'm talking about Freddy Kudrow."
Alex paused long, staring into Bugs' eyes. That name. Does he remember it?
"Freddy Kudrow? Fredrick Kudrow?"
"You hit da nail on da head, doc. He stole some very stable cubes from your confiscated lab."
"HE WHAT?!" He shouted
"Quiet!" One guard said, indistance
"He what?!" He shouted more silently.
"You heard me. What do you know about 'em?"
Alex paused for a second, then shot off a wide grin, knowing exactly what they were getting at.
"What makes you think I'd tell you?"
"You're da one dat got him out of jail years ago."
"That's right. And why should I tell you any more?"
"Because if you don't, I'll unleash Daffy here." He said as Daffy cracks his knuckles adding with a smirk on his face."What's it gonna be?"
"Oh, I'm just dying for you to say no." Daffy said, seductively, but deadly
Alex paused in fright, then sighs. What Bugs did to Alex back at his lab was enough. What Daffy can do to him as a sign of revenge would be beyond physical damage. He definitely don't want none of Daffy.
"Alright. Kudrow used to work for the NS--"
"Blah, blah, blah. We know that." Daffy interrupted. "Get to the good stuff."
"Alright! (clears throat) He became my protege for a few years on some researches on buried specimens. It's like resurrection of the dead bodies. Anyway, Kudrow wanted my blue prints on mindcontrolling these specimens using computerized mind chips. I gave him a set of copies to take with him to use somewhere in Utah. I took it from there and started manufacturing buried alive specimens."
Bugs and Daffy listened with widen eyes, but didn't believe it. Was he referring to them?
"Hold on. What are you saying, that we were the buried specimens you guys has dug up?" Daffy asked
Naturally, Alex nods. Bugs and Daffy were beyond shocked and dumbfounded at this. The questions on their minds were these: How were they frozen? And how did they gain such new found abilities that no one else can acquire?
"What I didn't know is that Kudrow snatched a blueprint for a design of a cog machine that can create robotic little bugs called--"
"Silver-Mech." Bugs and Daffy said, unison
Alex paused.
"Yes. You've seen them?"
Bugs nods.
"Dey've been roaming around town lately supplying others with deir substances. Kudrow was arrested for gathering information years ago. And I'll bet dat it was da info on dem insectoids dat we've encountered earlier."
Alex sighs deeply and gazed down long.
"Great. My own designs in the hands of another. How pathetic is that?"
"Listen, doc, we need to locate a building off the coast of Long Beach. The building is called Espionage. You know where we can find it?"
Alex shakes his head.
"No. He never told me anything. I'll tell you who knows but be glad I'm not gonna kill you afterwards."
Bugs and Daffy blushed on that statement. Were they his favorite to kill?
"Oh, behave." Bugs and Daffy said, unison
Ext.
Bugs and Daffy exits out the county jail and approaches the car.
Int.
Bugs got in the passenger's while Daffy gets in the back. Lola was still unconscious from the blow Bugs delivered. Damon was in front on the wheels as Daffy noticed Bugs in passengers.
"Hey, wait a minute. How come you get to be in front?"
"Because I'm taller." He replied, fastening his seatbelt
"You know, that rule does not apply to ducks."
"Well, it does now. Have it eva occured to you dat you have ta be as tall as me to be in front?"
"Aw, you know, you're despicable."
"And den some. Heh, heh."
Damon starts the engines.
"Where to now?"
"An arms dealers place. A guy named Hudos owns it."
Damon gazes him very confused.
"Hudos?"
Bugs gazed Damon and nods.
"Yeah." He replied, gazing forward again.
Damon gazed forward, shaking his head, steers the wheels and drives off.

Many people screamed due to the rumbling of the bus. Luckily, they, including the driver has their seatbelts on to maintain balance.
MEANWHILE
Meanwhile, Daffy hands Lola the clip mag and replaced one in the gun.
"What do you want me to do with this?!"
"Toss it!"
Lola strugs and does so.
As the clip was tossed in the air, the first bee opened its belly before the mag was thrown in it. Suddenly...
(Beep Beep!)
(Explosion!)
The 1st bee exploded on impact and crashes to the ground inches from them as Lola and Daffy looked back in total surprise.
"Geez, talk about a stomach ache!" Lola jestered as Daffy nods. "You got another?!"
Lola looked at Daffy, who was looking over her shoulder in shock.
"Uh...Daffy!"
Daffy was silence and pointed behind Lola. She looked behind her and was shocked to find a bus hovering over them while the two bees suspended the bus filled with a few frightened people.
"Oh, my god." Lola said
(Intercom Beeps)
Despite his shocked state, Daffy picked up the intercom.
"Bugs, you're not gonna believe this!"
"I know! I'm going afta it right now!"
"A little reminder! Use the clips on our pursuers! They're explosives!" He explained while taking control of the cycle once again.
Apparently, the cycle was in cruise control the entire time driving Daffy and Lola around without a single accident.
Despite her expression, Lola released a mag and tossed it aside. In the same fashion, the single bee opened its compartment, allowing the cartridge to enter.
As soon as the compartment closed, the insectoid exploded on impact in a burst of flames and crashed on the streets.
(Wide Open Scene)
Bugs rode faster pass Daffy and Lola as the bees were almost on the verge of ascending higher into the sky with the bus.
Bugs looked at the rear-view and saw the other insectoid chasing after him.
"Oops. Forgot about you."
He reached in the inside pocket of his coat and took out an empty clip mag. He swiftly tossed it aside as the bee saw this and halts its stop before he could stop and fire a missile. Its compartment opened and the clip entered.
The clip ruptured and caused the robot to explode on impact in a bust of flame before it crashed to the ground maximizing the damage.
Bugs soon noticed the bus ascending and looked to find a ramp somewhere. Anywhere. He found one a few feet away behind a pickup truck.
Bugs smiled and accelerates faster on the cycle.
As soon as the airborne bus passed the pickup truck, Bugs' cycle soared over the ramp and was now airborne.
(SLOW MOTION)
As on cue, Bugs made a daring jump from the cycle and grasps onto the side roof ledge of the bus.
(REGULAR MOTION)
As he hung by the windows, his cycle crashed through a car's back windshield, setting off the alarm.
Bugs looked through the window and saw a few peoples inside the bus, scared out of their minds.
When they saw Bugs, he smiled a toothy grin and waves.
"What's up, group?"
Bugs looked up and saw the two bees ascending the bus upward. Unnoticed of his presence.
Bugs was in it hard. If he'd disable the cables, the bus will fall and it only takes two to hold the bus up.
Bugs thinks for a moment before he gazed to the side and noticed a tall 30 story skyscaper up ahead. He smiled and looked through the window at the civilians and to the driver.
"Tell everyone to hang on!" He shouted as the bees started to ascend higher into the sky.
This took several minutes and as soon as they were in range of the rooftop of the building, Bugs forced himself up and flips to his feet on the top of the bus. As soon as that happened, the insectoids caught sight of him with their glowing yellow eyes.
Throughout the eyes, a yellow grid scanned Bugs' full feature staring at him.
Two combat knife extends from the sleeves of Bugs' coat. Bugs took them by handle as he gazed up at the bees.
"Time ta cut loose!"
In a swift movement, he crossed his arms and threw the knives to both sides cutting the cables loose and causing the bus to drop from the sky.
Int. Metro Bus
Everyone hung on to their chairs as it fell trying their best from screaming.
Ext.
As soon as the bus falls, the cables retracted inside the bees belly compartment and closed afterwards. They soared back after the bus as Bugs noticed and took two clips from his pocket. He gestures it to the bees.
"Got a snack for ya!" He tossed the beeping clips in the sky as the compartments opened letting the mags in the bees belly.
In the same fashion earlier, the two insectoids exploded on impact at the same time the bus crashed land on the rooftop of the skyscraper building, shaking the bus violently as everyone hung on to their seats.
Bugs kept his balance as he stands and jumped off the top of the bus. He lands in a crouch and stands.
"Whew! Now dat...was un-bee-lievable. Heh, heh, heh."
Bugs turned and approached the bus. He opened the door and stepped aside as a few people piled out of the bus, cheering and whooping.
The driver came out as well and saw Bugs, who smiled.
"You guys alright?"
The driver nods.
"Yeah. (extends hand) Thanks a lot."
Bugs takes it.
"Eh, don't mention it. Savin' folks from flying buses is what I do best." Bugs jestered before chuckling.
Ext. Streets
Daffy and Lola were looking around for Bugs and the bus. So far, they didn't find anything.
"You see him?!" Lola asked
"Nope!"
(Horn Honks)
Headlights shoned slightly on them as Daffy swerved to the side, stopping in front of the stopping hover vehicle.
The vehicle lowers to the ground before the engines shut off.
Daffy and Lola looked forward seeing the front door opened and Damon stepped out.
Daffy and Lola were a bit surprised by this.
"Damon, what are you doing here?"
Damon closed the door and approaches them.
"Thought you guys might need help." He said as he stopped in front of them.
Daffy and Lola got off the cycle as Damon looked around.
"Where's Bugs?"
"Did you see a flying bus?" Daffy asked
Damon paused and realized it.
"Oh, okay. He was on the bus?"
Daffy and Lola nods.
"Where is he now?" He asked
Before Daffy could answer, a hand tapped his shoulder causing Daffy to flinch.
"Eh, what's up, damie?"
Bugs arrived behind Daffy and Lola, to their sudden surprise.
Damon, however, was beyond surprise. But shook it off.
"You know what? I'm not even gonna know how you got here so fast."
"Heh, heh." Bugs chuckled
"Anyway, what happened?" Damon asked
"We'll explain in da car. Daffy, ditch da cycle."
"Why? It's my favorite cycle."
"Listen, I got rid of mine by trying ta get to dat bus to save a few bystanders. It's only fair dat you do yours."
Daffy shakes his head.
"No, screw that. I'm not getting rid of mine because you did."
Bugs turns to Lola.
"Lola..."
Daffy noticed with widen eyes. Apparently, he doesn't want a piece of lola. Who wouldn't.
"On second thought, why not?" He said, immediately parking the cycle by the sidewalk.
Bugs watched him and smirks.
"Works every time." He said as Daffy approached him with a disgust look in his eyes.
"You're despicable." He muttered while passing Bugs towards the car.
"Heh, heh. Don't I know it."
The three specimens and Damon waltzes over to the car and got in.
Damon starts the engines and switched to hover mode on the car. The car hovered inches from the ground before they drove out of sight.
Int. Car - Seconds Later
"What?!" Damon asked after hearing Bugs' explaination on what happened
"Lindsey was kidnapped again. 'Dis time, with a friend."
Damon sighs deeply and shakes his head.
"Man. You know, one day, I'm gonna change address."
Bugs and Daffy snickers, but then cleared their throats going back to seious matters.
"Look, Damon, we're gonna get her back, but we gotta do something first."
"What?"
"Well, first..."
Within a blind of an eye, Bugs swiftly threw a chop to Lola's neck rendering her unconscious to Damon and Daffy's surprise.
"What the hell are you doing?" Daffy asked
Bugs grabs Lola and examines her neck.
"She's bugged."
"What?!" Damon and Daffy said, unison
"It's da same thing dat happend to me. How'd ya think dey knew where we were at da apartment? Or tracked us down here?"
"As I recall correctly, you ran like a bat out of hell when you figured that Lindsey was kidnapped." Daffy stated
Bugs paused with embarassment.
"Oh. (clears throat) But like I said, they probably tracked us down to keep us away from da kidnappers."
He continues searching amd enlarges his pupils. His pupil enlarges and, like X-ray, could see a rapidly blinking device connected to the outer part of the neck in the bloodstream.
"I need a cutting tool."
Damon reached in the glove compartment and took out a scapel. He hands it to Daffy, who gave it to Bugs.
"What are you gonna do?" Daffy asked
"Operation." Bugs replied, keeping his eyes on Lola's neck.
Bugs started to operate on the neck, trailing the scapel interlocking a circle, which was easy.
Daffy watched with fright and disgust.
"My God."
Bugs used the scapel to peel the skin loose, exposing the hole inside the neck. Bugs bit his tongue as he digs deeper into the neck for the device. Unlike the device that was in his neck, this one was a little harder to nab. After a few minutes, Bugs finally got it out at the tip of the scapel.
He gazed it sternly as did Daffy.
"Gotcha." Bugs said
Daffy whistles in astounishment.
Bugs gave the scapel to Daffy, who took the chip off and was aboutto pocket it before Bugs quickly noticed.
"No, no, destroy it. It'll keep 'em off our track."
"Oh."
Daffy bared his hand tightly crushing the tracking device to bits.
"Damon, got a knitting tool?"
"In the middle compartment."
Bugs reached and opened the compartment. He quickly scrambles through and took out a needle and some silver strings.
"By the way, what's your second course of action?" Damon asked
"We're going to see Dr. McCloud on 'dis guy." Bugs said as he starts to reconnect the skin to Lola's neck.
"You think he'll talk?" Damon asked
"Heh, heh. Oh, he'll talk."
Dissolve To:
Ext.
The two robotic caterpillars arrived at Espionage and landed on the building's rooftop. Two separate hangars lowered from the rooftop.
Int.
The hangars lowered to the inside of an upstairs hidden large room where banks of monitors were around the lowering hangars.
On the far right and left corners, technicians were working on monitors.
A double door opened and Kudrow walked in with 6 of his dark dressed human henchmens. They approached the robotic caterpillars, who deactivated the spider-like metallic legs from their unconscious captives.
Lindsey and Sandy were still netted inside as Kudrow stopped in front of the caterpillars and gazed the hostages. He smirked and chuckled.
"I guess negoiations are in order." He chuckled as well as the henchmens did.
Lindsey was semi-conscious as she looked and saw her kidnappers before drifting her eyes close.
Cut To:
Int.
Inside a cell block, Dr. Alex McCloud sat in his cell ironically laying on his bed when a guard came up knocking on his cell with his baton.
Alex woke up after that.
"McCloud. You've got visitors."
"Is it mother?" He asked getting up from his bed.
The guard opens his cell door.
"If it's my brother, don't want to talk." He said as he exits his cell.
Int. Penetentiary Visiting Room
Few visiting people were behind windows while prisoners were on the other side conversing with them on phones. Like many people do to visit love ones that are in jail.
Bugs sat at the seat, while Daffy stood by him as he saw Alex approaching towards the otherside.
Alex was somewhat surprised to see Bugs and Daffy, but at the same time, a little bit dismayed. Alex could barely remember the last time he saw Bugs. Or as he solemnly called "Project X." And Daffy, he was his courier to infiltrate Bugs. Now his plan took a turn for the worst. Question is: Why would they visit him after three weeks?
Bugs picked up the phone with Alex doing the same and putting the receiver to his ear. Before Alex could sit down, Bugs pulled off a toothy grin and spoke.
"Eh...what's up, doc? Remember me?"
(Flashbacks - 3 Weeks Ago - McCloud's Lab)
A tazer stick was wiped out from the left sleeve of Bugs' coat before he aimed and shot Alex. The scientist eyes widen and before he could react, electricity sizzled around Alex's body.
"Aah!"
Alex flown across the room and lands on the ground tumbling behind the 3 giant robots.
(Flashbacks Ends)
Alex was seated as he spoke, trying to shake the thought from his head.
"Well, well, well. If it isn't my long lost specimen, Project X."
Bugs paused, then chuckles. He heard that so many times before.
"Heh, heh, heh. Y-You still can't seem to call me by my real name, can ya?"
Alex chuckled.
"It never occured to me. You don't even have a real name. You don't even exist."
Deeply offended, Daffy soon decided to step in, pointing at him as Bugs looks at him.
"Listen, bub, you shut your trap right now."
"Daffy..."
"Matter of fact, I should kick your despicable ass right here and now for what you did to me."
"Daffy..."
"But since you're behind this glass and in good care, I'm gonna let that comment you made towards Bugs slide for a moment, you hear?"
"Daffy!"
"Yes?" He answered smugly after lowering his finger with his hands on his hips.
"Thanks for the heads up. But I think I got it."
Daffy waves Bugs on as he looked at Alex again. Bugs was rather flattered that Daffy stood up for him on his behalf. His thoughts trailed off as he gave his attention back to Alex.
"Well, doc, like Daff said, dat "You don't even exist" comment is gonna slide from 'dis conversation. Right now, I wanna have a talk with you."
"About what? It's been long since anyone talked to me."
"Doc, it's been three weeks."
"It was long to me!" He almost shouted
"Okay." Bugs and Daffy said, unison
Alex scoffs.
"What do you want?"
"We want information on a guy. I think you know 'em."
"Oh, yeah?"
"Yeah."
"Don't know what you're talking about."
"Oh, no?"
"No."
"Maybe if I say da name, will dat help you?"
"That depends on who you're talking about."
"I'm talking about Freddy Kudrow."
Alex paused long, staring into Bugs' eyes. That name. Does he remember it?
"Freddy Kudrow? Fredrick Kudrow?"
"You hit da nail on da head, doc. He stole some very stable cubes from your confiscated lab."
"HE WHAT?!" He shouted
"Quiet!" One guard said, indistance
"He what?!" He shouted more silently.
"You heard me. What do you know about 'em?"
Alex paused for a second, then shot off a wide grin, knowing exactly what they were getting at.
"What makes you think I'd tell you?"
"You're da one dat got him out of jail years ago."
"That's right. And why should I tell you any more?"
"Because if you don't, I'll unleash Daffy here." He said as Daffy cracks his knuckles adding with a smirk on his face."What's it gonna be?"
"Oh, I'm just dying for you to say no." Daffy said, seductively, but deadly
Alex paused in fright, then sighs. What Bugs did to Alex back at his lab was enough. What Daffy can do to him as a sign of revenge would be beyond physical damage. He definitely don't want none of Daffy.
"Alright. Kudrow used to work for the NS--"
"Blah, blah, blah. We know that." Daffy interrupted. "Get to the good stuff."
"Alright! (clears throat) He became my protege for a few years on some researches on buried specimens. It's like resurrection of the dead bodies. Anyway, Kudrow wanted my blue prints on mindcontrolling these specimens using computerized mind chips. I gave him a set of copies to take with him to use somewhere in Utah. I took it from there and started manufacturing buried alive specimens."
Bugs and Daffy listened with widen eyes, but didn't believe it. Was he referring to them?
"Hold on. What are you saying, that we were the buried specimens you guys has dug up?" Daffy asked
Naturally, Alex nods. Bugs and Daffy were beyond shocked and dumbfounded at this. The questions on their minds were these: How were they frozen? And how did they gain such new found abilities that no one else can acquire?
"What I didn't know is that Kudrow snatched a blueprint for a design of a cog machine that can create robotic little bugs called--"
"Silver-Mech." Bugs and Daffy said, unison
Alex paused.
"Yes. You've seen them?"
Bugs nods.
"Dey've been roaming around town lately supplying others with deir substances. Kudrow was arrested for gathering information years ago. And I'll bet dat it was da info on dem insectoids dat we've encountered earlier."
Alex sighs deeply and gazed down long.
"Great. My own designs in the hands of another. How pathetic is that?"
"Listen, doc, we need to locate a building off the coast of Long Beach. The building is called Espionage. You know where we can find it?"
Alex shakes his head.
"No. He never told me anything. I'll tell you who knows but be glad I'm not gonna kill you afterwards."
Bugs and Daffy blushed on that statement. Were they his favorite to kill?
"Oh, behave." Bugs and Daffy said, unison
Ext.
Bugs and Daffy exits out the county jail and approaches the car.
Int.
Bugs got in the passenger's while Daffy gets in the back. Lola was still unconscious from the blow Bugs delivered. Damon was in front on the wheels as Daffy noticed Bugs in passengers.
"Hey, wait a minute. How come you get to be in front?"
"Because I'm taller." He replied, fastening his seatbelt
"You know, that rule does not apply to ducks."
"Well, it does now. Have it eva occured to you dat you have ta be as tall as me to be in front?"
"Aw, you know, you're despicable."
"And den some. Heh, heh."
Damon starts the engines.
"Where to now?"
"An arms dealers place. A guy named Hudos owns it."
Damon gazes him very confused.
"Hudos?"
Bugs gazed Damon and nods.
"Yeah." He replied, gazing forward again.
Damon gazed forward, shaking his head, steers the wheels and drives off.
