Chapter 10: The Finals
Finally! The big kahuna of the whole tournament has finally entered the door! The Finals are here and all the winners are raring to go any minute now. It was now the next morning and the winners were anxious for what awaits them in this final bout of the entire tournament. None of them were nervous, including Lawrence. As they ate breakfast, Teeko and Lawrence were smiling while everyone else was looking nervous.
"Great. Just great." Lola complained as she took another bite of her pancake.
"What?" Gon asked.
I get to get in the Finals and Bugs doesn't. I hope this won't be too bad."
"I don't feel bad, Lola." Bowser Jr. protested. "I was pretty darn lucky to make it this far."
"You're lucky. I didn't expect you to make it. Same for AiAi and Cream."
"How can we have a monkey, a ninja, two rabbits, a cat-masked wrestler, an echinda, two short reptiles, and me, a tasmanian tiger in the same bout as the Finals?" Ty asked.
"Why did you ask that long-as-I-don't-know-what question!" Gon asked furiously.
"Just asking."
"Okay, okay, everyone! Settle down!" Teeko commanded, which made them get quiet. "Now, since this is the Finals, we need to set a good, but challenging arrangement. It's gonna be just like the semi-finals, but here's the big twist: only two will be claimed as our finalists. Whomever is claimed as finalists must challenge me simultaneously. Whoever's the last one standing, wins the entire torunament and the big prize money of 500 million dollars."
So, what do all of us nine winners do for now?" Kunimitsu asked.
"I called a fierce team of 10 big, strong, and muscular siberian tigers. Defeat them with the remaining two finalists and honorable mention will be awarded to the remaining winners who lost. Understand?"
"Yes!" The winners replied in unison.
"Good. We'll start in a few hours, so be ready. The tigers will be here quicker than you think."
Later, after a 30 minute break…
"Well, Bugs… I'm going against a bunch of tigers for money." Lola pleaded as she tied on her scrunchie around her ears. "Any word of advice before I go?"
"Yeah!" Daffy replied rudely. "Don't get eaten! AHHAHAHAHAHA!"
"Daffy!" Bugs screamed at the black duck as he ran to the door of their chambers. "Don't make me show ya my bad side 'cause I will!" He sighed after that statement as he walked back in, slamming the door on the way. "Don't listen to him."
"Ya know, Bugs… maybe I need a little something to give me a little bravery." Lola showed a seductive look on her face as she walked up to her husband sexually. He noticed and gulped with nervousness.
"Heh, heh! Uh… Lola… why are ya lookin' at me like dat?" He asked nervously.
Lola didn't reply. She just chuckled seductively as she slowly slid her hands on his shoulders and moved really close to his face and whispered:
"Bugsy, you're so silly." After that, she gave him a delicious liplock, knocking him towards the chair behind him.
Meanwhile, in Gon and Kunimitsu's section of the lobby…
"Ooh, Gon!" Kunimitsu cooed. "You're so tense."
"Well, I am pretty nervous about battling these tigers." Gon replied. "I'm gonna keep my head up and face those gosh darn tigers. I may be small, but I sure can beat the crap out of these wildcats!"
"That's what I like to hear, baby. You'll be fine."
"I hope so."
Later, in Teeko and Lawrence's balcony…
"All these contenders are really nervous about facing these tigers, Teeko." Lawrence started. "I hope we can end with two finalists. I heard these tigers can fight as if they were trying to brutally murder somebody."
"Then, if that's how they fight, that's how this final bout will go." Teeko growled with an evil smile. "I love a deadly brawl when it comes to being saved for last."
Later, after lunch…
There were three strong bangs on the cave entrance door. Teeko chuckled as he looked at the door, then back at the arena where all the winners were gathered. Lawrence didn't like the look on the giant bat's face as he flapped his way to the arena to warn the winners.
"Okay, everyone. Settle down." He commanded as he stood on his perch in front of the lot of the winners.
"How can we?" Bowser Jr. asked. "We're all so nervous, even Kunimitsu can't wear her mask because she's sweatin'."
"Don't worry, guys. I understand. I don't like where this is going either."
"Good, At least, somebody agrees with out agony." Ty sighed. "Why isn't Teeko agreeing with this?"
"Apparently, he wants to see you guys get tortured brutally."
"WHAT!" Gon screamed. "Why in the worl…! What's with that bat!"
"Who knows? All I can say to you guys is good luck because this final bout is gonna be deadly."
20 seconds later…
Teeko arrived with the team of 10 gigantic and muscular Siberian tigers standing behind him. They growled along with Teeko's chuckling.
"Are you guys ready to be murdered?" He asked.
This made all of the winners sweat, including Tikal.
"I'm guessing that's a 'yes'. Tigers, let the finals begin!" After that statement, Teeko and Lawrence foew off, leaving the winners with the tigers. Cream looked up at Lola with concern.
"Maybe this requires team effort for this one." She said softly. Lola nodded in agreement.
"Yeah. Hey, guys! Huddle!" She called as everybody gathered around her in a circle similar to a football team's huddle. "Okay, guys. Cream just suggested that we perform a team effort on this one. So I've got an idea. Listen carefully…"
5 minutes later…
"Okay, guys. Are you ready?" Armor King asked the tigers. They growled in response before they spoke.
"YEAH! Bring it, punks!" They replied in unison. "Ya'll are gonna die!"
"That's what you think." Kunimitsu protested in a deep voice.
"Arrrrrrrrrgh!" The tigers ran towards the winners as they took their fighting stances. Armor King made his first attack by grabbing two of the tigers into a deadly chokehold before slamming them towards the ground face first. Then, Kunimitsu counter-attacked by stabbing both of their heads with her dagger, rendering them dead with stab wounds in the backs of their heads. After that, they made a high five in celebration.
"Sweet move, Armor King. Maybe we should be a team someday." Kunimitsu commented.
Meanwhile, with Ty and AiAi…
Three tigers were coming at them before the tasmanian tiger and the monkey stood there in bravery.
"Okay, AiAi." Ty started. "Just like Lola planned."
AiAi nodded as he got himself into a monkey ball and Ty picked him up. Then, he did a spin change into a bowling outfit, which made the tigers freeze in puzzlement. Then, he ran up to a white line in the ground that came out of nowhere and he rolled AiAi in the ball, just like bowling. When it ran into the tigers, they were blasted towards a pit of spikes and the trap door to the pit closed by the time they began to fall into it. As soon as a sickening SPLAT was heard, AiAi got out of his ball ad walked up to Ty.
"That was radical!" He exclaimed. Ty nodded in agreement.
There were 5 tigers left and they surrounded Gon, Cream, Tikal, Bowser Jr., and Lola. Gon looked up at Lola as he spoke.
"Anymore ideas, sexy genius?" He asked with as attitude. Lola looked down at him with a disappointed, but smug look on her face.
"Give me a hot second. I'm workin' on it." She replied seductively. Gon purred at her voice.
"Ohhhhhhhh, yeah, baby. Keep thinkin'. You're doing good." After that response, he got clanked in the head by the handle of Kunimitsu's dagger, which was thrown by her. He turned towards her. She was standing next to Armor King with an angry look. Gon chuckled nervously as he looked at her shile rubbing the spot where the dagger handle collided.
"Ya know I was kiddin', Kuni! C'mon! Can't ya take a joke?" He asked.
"No, but I know one thing you can't take: a beatdown by me!" Kunimitsu replied, crossing her arms disappointedly.
After that response, the little yellow rex gulped with fear.
"I never knew my own girlfriend would be as mean as one of these mean-as-I-don't-what tigers." He said to herself.
"That's your girls." Bowser Jr. pleaded innocently.
"Uh… guys." Lola started. "I don't think I can think up of anything right now."
"Why not?" Cream asked.
"It looks like they're planning a scheme of their own."
"We surely are." One of the tigers agreed. "On the count of 3, we all pounce on them at the same time."
"This is not gonna end well." Kunimitsu swore to herself.
"1… 2… 3!" The tiger counted before all the tigers dove for them. At that moment, the rest of the winners came in to help.
While this was happening, Teeko was laughing his head off while Lawrence watched in agony.
"Boss, is this really necessary?" He asked with concern. Teeko was able to regain himself before he spoke.
"Calm down, Lawrence." He replied. "Once the riot breaks up, we'll see who's worthy enough to challenge me."
Back in the arena…
Three of the tigers were still alive as they looked at the remaining winners: Lola, Bowser Jr., and Kunimitsu. The rest of the winners were unconcious and wounded. Same for the other two tigers. Kunimitsu, Lola, and Bowser Jr. were a little wounded, but they still stood. They three remaining tigers chuckled devilishly as they saw the three winners.
"Had enough, ladies?" One of the tigers asked sarcastically. Bowser Jr. growled at that question.
"I ain't no lady, you big, ugly wildcat!" He yelled.
"You don't scare me. Now, we'll finish ya'll off."
The tiger was about to attack Lola, but he was miraculously blocked by Kunimitsu with her dagger. Lola sighed with both belief and shock. Bowser Jr. just speechlessly stood there. The both of them were straining, but Kunimitsu held in there, even though she was weak. At this point, the tiger pushed even harder on Kunimitsu's strength. She cringed as she tried to resist, but it was no use. All of her energy was used up and she collasped in front of Bowser Jr. and Lola into an unconcious state. By the time that happened, Lola and Bowser Jr. were scared.
"What are ya'll gonna do now?" The second tiger asked.
"I think I'll take Planning to Escape for 2,000." Bowser Jr. joked nervously as he held on to Lola's leg.
"Yipe!" Lola said softly.
While this was happening, Teeko chuckled devilishly.
"My favorite part of the battle." He said to himself.
Back on her ring, Lola and Bowser Jr. were standing there, shivering for dear life.
"Bowser Jr., if this is it, I just wanna say that you were a really funny guy." She said to the shorter version of Bowser.
"Gee, thanks." He replied. The tigers chuckled in unison as they got closer to the two victims.
Meanwhile, in the audience…
Bugs was shivering in fear himself, sitting next to NiGHTS. She held him in her arms, trying to calm him down.
"Don't worry, Bugs. I'm gonna help them out, including Kunimitsu." She said deeply. This made Bugs stop his shivering and look up at the human nightmaren in wonder.
"Huh?" Bugs asked in wonder.
"Just watch." She released the gray rabbit before she stood up and got into position. She stood there and closed her eyes. Her palms lit up for 5 seconds before she fired three particles towards the three victims. When they came into contact to them, they went into their bodies, except Kunimitsu's. The last particle bounced off her body and went back to NiGHTS, which puzzled her.
"What the…!" She exclaimed to herself she saw this.
Back in the arena…
The strength from the particles made Lola and Bowser Jr. stronger as they showed brave faces. This made the tigers nervous.
"Uh, oh." They swore together as Bowser Jr. and Lola's eyes glowed in anger. They ran towards them and started beating the crap out of them. One tiger managed to back up slowly and walk up to the weak Kunimitsu. She opened her eyes slowly, looking up at the tiger before he eyes. She groaned as she tried to get up, but then laid back down, due to her weak arms. The tiger chuckled with fury as he picked her up by the collar of her shirt. He was about to give her a good punch while he held her, but before he could…
AHHHHHHHHHHH!" Kunimitsu chuckled with humor after that scream from the tiger as she woke up completely after kicking him in the groin vigoriously, making her fall to her feet. While the tiger was tying to rub away the pain in his crotch, she took out her dagger and stabbed him fiercely in the chest, rendering him dead. She stood up and saw that Bowser Jr. was out cold, due to a strong beatdown after he did one with the tiger. Lola was standing, strong as she was supposed to be. She saw Kunimitsu and walked over to her as she saw her limping her way towards her. She held her up around her shoulders and held their hands up in victory. The crowd went wild.
"Well, well. Looks like I'll be battling some females tonight." Teeko said to himself. "Well, ladies. How do you feel?"
"About what?" Lola asked.
"About battling me tonight at 9:30?"
After that question, the two ladies looked at each other with concern.
Later, at dinnertime…
Bugs was eating his salad next to Lola. Gon was dabbing Kunimitsu's wounds while she was eating her favorite dish: fried calamari with sushi and rice. Both of the boys were relieved that their girls survived.
"I knew you would make it, Lo." Bugs started. "Tanks to NiGHTS, you made it trough."
"I'm glad, too." Lola agreed. "Bowser Jr. tried his best, but he got weak too early and got beaten down."
"'I missed it." Kunimitsu replied. "What did Bowser Jr. do that made him weak?"
"He used too much of his punches."
"Oh. OW!"
"Sorry." Gon apologized as he dabbed a scar on her leg, which stung intensely. "I gotta heal these."
"Well, go easy with the healing, please. Anyway, so it's just you and me battling Teeko tonight. Are you nervous?"
"No!" Lola exclaimed. "If I'm lying, then let lightining strike me now."
Then, right on cue, lightining struck and shocked her into a burnt crisp rabbit, missing her salad. Bugs moved out of the way as he sniffed her.
"Heh, heh. If Daffy fell for dat phrase, den so would you. Heh-heh-heh-heh!" He joked. Lola froze with surprise, coughing up some smoke. Gon busted out laughing as Kunimitsu shook her head in dismay, holding in her chuckle.
"Now he tells me." She groaned between coughs.
"Well, there you go." Kunimitsu joked as she focused back on her food.
"What?"
"You're offically a Looney Tune. Da-da-dum!"
"Oh!"
Later, at 9:30…
"Well, here we go, girlfriend." Lola said to Kunimitsu. The two ladies were waiting for Teeko in the arena. "Any last words?"
"Yeah. Wish me luck." She replied.
"Okay, good lu… hee, hee! Just kidding."
"That's okay."
After that statement, Teeko flew down towards the ladies and landed with a rumble in the ground. This shook the girls a little, but they kept their footing.
"Ready, girls?" He asked sarcastically. "I'm ready to see who is the REAL winner of the tournament."
"Don't we have any rules before we start?" Lola asked.
"There is only one rule: no weapons. That means your dagger, Kunimitsu. Get rid of it… NOW."
Kunimitsu sighed with grief as she pulled out her trusty dagger from her sheath and simply broke it in half. This made Teeko chuckle and Lola gasp with shock.
"Why did you do that?" She asked. "You could just toss it in the weapon trash can in the back!"
"I can always buy me a new one." Kunimitsu replied as she stood her ground.
"Now, stand back a few feet first and Lawrence will give us the signal to start." Teeko commanded. Thet girls obeyed him as they took 7 steps back and stopped, looking at the giant bat with determination. The audience wasn't tired at all. They were too excited for this battle against Teeko, including Bugs.
"If Lola wins, I'll buy her anyting she wants." He said to Gon, who was sitting next to him on his right side. He looked up at the gray rabbit and scoffed.
"Is that the best you got for a bet?" He asked.
"A bet, huh?"
"Yeah. Let's make a little bet on the ladies. You know that Lola's your girl and Kunimitsu's mine, right?"
"Yeah."
"Okay. If my girl wins, I get to take your collection of golden carrots. If your girl wins, then you can take whatever you want from me."
"Which will be your goilfriend's new Toyota Celica."
"I knew you was gonna say that."
Back in the arena…
"As soon as Lawrence rings the bell, you ladies are going down." Teeko proposed before he took his fighting stance. Lola and Kunimitsu did the same. After 5 more minutes of anxious silence, Lawrence rang the bell and Teeko roared as he dove for the ladies. They showed no fear as they both did backfilps to avoid the giant bat's claws. He landed on his feet and dodged for Kunimitsu first. Without her dagger, she was out of ideas. She thought for a few seconds before Teeko finally grabbed her in his hand and tried squeezing her to death. She was screaming at the top of her lungs as this happened and Lola ran up to the bat as he had his attention focused on the screaming manji ninja. When Lola came within 4 feet of the bat, she jumped up to the top of the Teeko's head and tried punch him at the very top of his head, but Teeko looked up with his eyes and grabbed her in a death-defying squeeze as well, making her scream at the top of her lungs as well. Their screams were music to his ears as he chuckled with evil in his smile.
"Face it! Even a couple of weak women can't defeat me! I've battled a ton of warriors back in my time and they didn't stand a chance. So, you two won't either!" He exclaimed before he laughed hysterically. While this was happening, Bugs and Gon were looking a little nervous.
"Looks like none of us will get what we betted on." Gon said to himself. Bugs nodded in agreement.
Back in the ring…
After a 10 minute deathening squeeze-hold, the ladies went unconcious, due to running out of breath from screaming. He simply dropped the limp ladies on the ground at the same time as he roared in victory.
"Once again, I have triumphed! No one alive can stop me!" He screamed as he waddled around in celebration. While he was doing this, the two ladies woke up by just opening their eyes. They looked at each other with anger.
"Did he just call us 'weak'?" Lola asked softly.
"Yeah." Kunimitsu replied.
"Come to think of it, he doesn't know who he's talkin' about. I say we teach him a lesson about treating women with respect."
"Yeah. You got an idea?"
"I've got some ideas. Listen very closely…"
As for Teeko, he was still celebrating, even though he audience wasn't. They were actually booing at him.
"That was so unfair!" Bugs declaired. "He just squeezed dose ladies to death!"
"Hey!" Gon shot out as he stood up on the audience wall to take a closer look. "Looks like we'll be able to do our bet after all."
"Huh?"
Back on the arena…
Teeko's back was turned as both ladies stood up slowly.
"Hey, big boy?" Lola asked seductively. This made Teeko and the audience get quiet as he turned around to see the ladies up on their feet. He grew furious on the inside as he saw this. "Is that any way to treat a lady?"
"I thought I killed you two. How did you survive?" He asked in anger.
"Let's just say we've had a few tricks up our sleeves." Kunimitsu replied smoothly. "You wanna fight? We got you one."
"Grrrr! I won't let a couple of weak ladies defeat me!"
"We'll show you 'weak'!" The two ladies yelled back in unison as they ran up towards him and Kunimitsu gave him a strong kick in his stomach. This made him nearly fall over. While he was dazed, Lola grabbed him by one of his wings and slammed him towards the ground face first, making the ground shake. She did a backflip backwards after that as she waited for Teeko to get up. As soon as he was halfway up, Kunimitsu sent a strong punch in his right eye, making it bleed. Then, gave him a strong uppercut under his jaw, knocking him backwards and landing on his back hard. Even though the bat had a black eye, he still stood up with fury.
"Why you little…?" He muttered before Lola jumped up onto his stomach and pulled out a jumprope.
"Wanna play a little jumprope?" She asked sarcastically. Before Teeko could reply, she started jumproping on his stomach, knocking wind out of him every time she landed. While this was happening, Kunimitsu snuck out a spare dagger from her back pocket and slashed a piece of the bat's tail off, making him roar in pain. Kunimitsu chuckled as she heard this and threw the dagger away, so Teeko couldn't notice. After Lola's 10 minute jumproping session, she jumped off and let Teeko take a breather as she landed next to Kunimitsu and placed her jumprope away.
"That was cool." Kunimitsu commented. Lola blushed.
"Well, this is one thing I could do with my sexy, but atheletic self." She replied.
After that statement, Teeko finally stood up and snorted between growls this time. He was extremely pissed this time.
"THAT'S IT! THIS LAST ATTACK WILL PROVE ONCE AND FOR ALL THAT I'M UNDEFEATABLE!" He yelled at the top of his lungs before he stood in his position and opened his mouth, having a blue particle form in front of it. This made the ladies' eyes go wide.
"I do have a bit of NiGHTS' power in me." Lola said to Kuni as she stood her ground, ready to fire her plasma ball. Kunimitsu nodded in agreement as she took her stance, ready to fire an energy sphere.
"So do I." She added. "Her grandfather tought me."
At this moment, the audience was about to see the biggest finish of all big finishes: three different sources of plasma and energy spheres colliding each other. Everybody watched with anxiousness as they two ladies and Teeko were ready to fire their energy spheres. After 5 minutes, all three of them fired and it impacted with a huge, bright dome-shaped explosion, covering only the very middle of the arena. The crowd went quiet as this happened, including Lawrence in the balcony. Bugs held Gon in his arms as he shivered with fear.
"I really want those golden carrots." He said to himself.
"Well, I really want dat Celica for Lola." Bugs protested.
After nearly 15 minutes, the explosion cleared and it revealed the last one standing… well, kneeling. Lawrence was able to make out who it was with his own pair of binoculars. He gasped as he took the mic and spoke.
"Ladies and gentlemen, we have a winner! Teeko was blasted out for good… thank goodness. I can't stand him anyway. The winner of our First Annual All-Toon All-Game Tournament is…" Everybody stayed silent as Lawrence finished. "…Lola Bunny!"
The crowd went wild as they heard the winner's name. Bugs joined the crazed crowd as Gon landed on his feet on his chair and pulled out the car keys to his girlfriend's car.
"I don't know how she did it, but she did it." He said as he handed the keys to Bugs. "Here. A bargain's a bargain."
"Tank you very much, rex." Bugs thanked as he stuffed the keys in his pocket and ran up to Lola, who was kneeled down, looking at the unconcious Kunimitsu and the dead Teeko.
"You did good, Kuni… you did good." She said to herself as Bugs arrived behind her and helped her up, wrapping his arm around her shoulders. Seconds later, the rest of the contenders, including the Loonatics arrived with Lawrence with the huge sack of the grand prize money.
"Lola Jean Bunny, congradulations on your victory in the First Annual All-Toon All-Game Tournament. Here is your 500 million dollar prize." Lawrence announced as he handed Bugs the money. Everybody cheered on for Lola, who smiled weakly at their celebrating.
The next day, back at Warner Bros. Studios…
"…and then, they blasthted their plasthma ballsth all at the sthame time. When they exthploded, Lola wasth the one sthtanding! It wasth awesthome!" Daffy exclaimed as he finished explaining to Mr. Warner what happened yesterday. "And the funny thing wasth that we never sthaw it comin'!"
"Nope." Bugs agreed as he rubbed his wife with passion on her leg. She giggled as she allowed him to do his thing.
"Now that Lola won the money, I can set a raise for every cartoon and movie you do from now on." Mr. Warner announced.
"Really?" Lola asked. "By how much?"
"By 50 percent."
Ace whistled as Lexi spoke.
"That does include us, right?" She asked.
"Yeah, Lexi. That includes you Loonatics also."
"Cool!" Danger Duck exclaimed.
"Now, Bugs…"
"Yeah, doc?" Bugs asked, still rubbing Lola's leg with passion.
"Shouldn't you do something special for your wife for winning the tournament?"
"Like…?"
"Like…" Mr. Warner leaned in, so he could whisper in Bugs' ear the rest of his sentence. After whispering for 5 minutes, Bugs did his signature eyebrow flutter in response.
"Ohhhhhhh. I get it, doc. Oh, Lola?"
"Yeah, baby?" She asked back seductively.
"How about we head on upstairs and uh… do what ya love to do at night?"
"Sure. I'll meet ya in your office." After that reply, she stood up and walked upstairs towards Bugs' office while Bugs himself stood up and prepared himself.
"Excuse me, fellas." He started. "I'm about to go and give Lola what her sexy body's been waitin' for. See ya." After that, he left up the stairs, leaving the others geering.
"Ace?" Lexi started as she spotted the black and yellow Loonatic trying to touch her tail. "Don't even think about it."
"Sorry." Ace apologized as he quickly got his mind back on himself and cleared his throat.
THE END!
