REVIEW RESPONSE
PurpleCobra247: Shirley's prophecy was meant to be gloomy. She was hoping that it would make the police think twice about arresting FoxFang. You'll have to wait to see if it does. Glad you liked it anyway.
acosta pèrez josè ramiro: Yep, Shirley can be quiet but powerful. The expression 'silent but deadly' springs to mind. I hadn't seen the episode that you referred to so we can put the fact that the prophecy reminded you of it as a coincidence. Anyway, glad you liked the chapter.
Nightw2: I'm just glad I was able to post that last chapter. I've had troubles getting into the I.T suit recently so I was only just able to post it on that day. Glad you liked it anyway.
Call me…Later that evening, Lola Bunny was standing outside the Loonitheatre with Petunia and Miss. Prissy. The theatre had been built shortly after the incident with ACME. It was used for a variety of different performances. The Looney Tunes would also give performances on the stage on occasions. They were actually planning a stage performance for the following weekend. They were still unsure of what they wanted to do. The building was near the ACME superstore. The group were standing outside looking at the night sky. They had just seen a stage a rendition of the Indian wars, from the Indians point of view. It was a charity event to raise money for IFAW charitable trust. It had just finished and the three were watching as all of the others that were at the theatre were leaving. They were also discussing the whole performance.
"Well, what did you guys think?" Petunia asked.
"Good, I'd never appreciated the Indians until now." Miss. Prissy replied.
"I liked it. Well recommended Petunia." Lola added.
"How are you going to get home?" Petunia asked.
"Foghorn should be here to pick me up soon." Miss. Prissy replied.
"I'll find my own way home. Bugs is in an important meeting." Lola added. Shortly after that, a white Volvo pulled up in front of them. Porky was driving and all of their children in the back. Catherine was holding her head and looking rather weary.
"Hey there sw-sw-sweetie." Porky greeted.
"Hi honey, how are the little ones?" Petunia asked.
"Catherine's a little po-po-ill but everyone else is fine."
"Why am I worried all of a sudden?"
"Hopefully it won't be anything serious."
"Hope so either." Petunia stepped into the passenger side of the car and gave Porky a kiss on the cheek. She then looked out of the window and looked at Lola and Miss. Prissy.
"Well, we'll see you at the looniversity tomorrow." Petunia said.
"See ya." Lola replied. Porky then drove off, leaving Lola and Miss. Prissy in the car park of the theatre. It was now pretty much empty, only a couple of cars were left.
"Well, I'm going home now." Lola said.
"Ok, I'll see you tomorrow." Miss. Prissy replied.
"Give my regards to Foghorn Leghorn will ya?"
"Sure."
"Well, see ya." Lola began to walk back to find a patch of ground so she could burrow back home.
Lola eventually reached a small patch of grass around the back of the theatre. There was a pile of upturned earth in the centre. It was the entrance to the tunnel that she had dug to get to the theatre. Lola had covered the entrance with a couple of planks of wood. She had a quick look around and saw nobody. There were a few pillars around holding up an overhang from the roof of the theatre. There were also a couple of bins around. Lola had no idea that an armed thug was hiding behind one of the pillars. Lola went over to the planks of move and was about to remove them when a chill went down her spine. Her sense of danger was tingling heavily. She nervously looked around but still couldn't see anyone.
"Hello? Is anyone around?" Lola called out. There came no reply. Lola was getting nervous. She looked around again but still saw nobody. She began to sweat a little. She could tell that someone was around but couldn't see him or her. She went down to pick up the planks of wood again but felt a hand on her shoulder. She turned around in a panic and saw a masked thug armed with a dagger in front of her. The thug pointed the dagger at her throat.
"Hello my pretty, what are you doing here?" The thug asked. Lola began to sweat with fear. Nobody noticed the FoxChopper hovering above.
"What do you want?" Lola asked, a hint of fear in her voice.
"I'd give you a guess but that would waste time." The thug lowered his dagger towards Lola's chest, scaring her even more. She genuinely thought that she was going to die. They didn't realise that the FoxChopper had landed behind tem and that FoxFang and Cub had jumped out.
"Leave the lady alone!" FoxFang scolded. The thug turned around and only then realised that FoxFang and Cub were present. It was now his turn to panic. He was sweating with fear.
"What would you want with her?" Cub asked.
"Why did you have to show up?" The thug asked
"Why do you think?" Cub threw a Fangmerang and knocked the dagger out of the thug's hand. Once he was disarmed, FoxFang leapt at the thug and had pinned him within seconds. The thug was now completely powerless while FoxFang pummelled him and cuffed him.
Once the thug was completely immobilised, Lola walked over to them with a huge expression of relief. She owed her life to FoxFang for a third time now. Of course, she had no idea who FoxFang was. FoxFang and Cub looked up at Lola and watched her. They had something they needed to say to her as they needed her help.
"FoxFang, thank you. That's the third time you've saved me." Lola exclaimed.
"It's my job." FoxFang replied.
"Could I ask you two to take me home?"
"Actually, we need to ask you something."
"Really?"
"Yeah, climb into our FoxChopper and I'll explain." Lola did so and followed FoxFang and Cub to the FoxChopper and climbed into the passenger compartment, catching a glimpse of King while she did so.
"Who's this guy?"
"That's our attack fox. He's harmless unless we tell him to attack. I'd advise against touching him though."
"Ok." Lola settled down on a seat in the back while King leapt into the front. Cub took control of the FoxChopper while FoxFang sat in the passenger side, with King next to her. Cub started off the engine and the FoxChopper took off.
"Erm, what did you need me for?" Lola asked.
"Lola, are you aware that Sylvester was attacked last night?" FoxFang asked. Lola gasped.
"No, I wasn't"
"Well, when we found him, we discovered that he had remembered a memory that could not have been true."
"What are you saying?"
"We believe that someone kidnapped Sylvester and re-wrote his memory using another."
"How do you know about another?"
"We have it on our database. We have it on records that your father made the device."
"Well, yeah. But how does it involve me?"
"We did some research and discovered that another is located on Blood Rabbit island."
"But we don't know where that is, which is where you come in." Cub added.
"I see." Lola replied.
"Will you help us?" FoxFang asked.
"If someone is misusing another I'll help. I'm sure that's what my father would want."
"Thank you."
"Now, Blood rabbit Island is a remote island in the pacific ocean. We won't be able to get there quickly though."
"Yes we will, brace yourself as we'll be going very fast." Cub powered up the FoxChopper and it left the city at its max speed. The resulting sonic boom gave everyone in the city a massive shock.
Within a short space of time, the FoxChopper had reached the pacific ocean. Cub slowed the vehicle down so they could properly search the ocean for the island. Lola was amazed at the sudden burst of speed that had been displayed.
"How fast were we going?" Lola asked.
"About Mach 2." FoxFang replied.
"Twice the speed of sound, amazing."
"Heh, thanks for the compliment."
"Now we need to find that island." Cub said.
"It's an isolated island but it is in a remote area." Lola said.
"So we need to find an island basically in the middle of nowhere."
"It was only about 10 miles away from the coast."
"Thanks, that really helps." Cub started piloting the FoxChopper 10 miles away from the coast and combing the area. They eventually spotted an isolated island in the ocean. Lola was looking down at the sea and saw the island.
"Down there, that's the island."
"Thanks, now let's find that culprit." Cub descended the FoxChopper and began trying to find a clearing. He eventually found one on the coast of the island. The beach was strong enough to support the FoxChopper's weight. In the cliff of the beach was a cave. When the FoxChopper was landed, everyone climbed out and had a look around. Lola recognised the area. It was the beach where her old ghostly friend A departed to the afterlife after regaining all his memories. Lola felt close to tears when she remembered her time with A. She also began to remember everything that had happened on the island.
"It's been so long, and I still remember what happened here." Lola muttered.
"Lola, do you know where another is?" FoxFang asked.
"Yes, I still remember."
"Well, we do need you to guide us to it."
"Ok, if we follow that cave, it will lead to a mine. We should be able to access the lab from there."
"Thanks. Do you want to stay here or come with us?"
"I want to help you. I won't allow anyone abusing my father's invention."
"Ok. Let's go."
The cave route hadn't changed at all since Lola's last visit. Lola had expected this as the island had been abandoned ever since her visit. Eventually, the group reached the staircase that led to the lab. The area remained completely untouched even after all these years. The group climbed up the staircase, with Lola in front and King at the back. The door that led to the lab was unlocked and the group went inside. The room was just as how Lola remembered it. Another was in the centre of the room. Another was a cylinder shaped device that was large enough to hold anyone. FoxFang, Cub and King hid behind another while Lola inspected the device. She immediately saw that her old DAS was still connected to another. She immediately disconnected it and looked at it. It no longer asked for a fingerprint scan. This meant that someone had tampered with it. She could tell that it was her's because it still held the messages that Lola had found on the DAS cards her dad had left her. It also had a few scratches on the back, obviously where it had been opened. Lola was looking at the device when she heard a noise. She looked around and saw Brendan Rabbit standing at the other entrance. He was dressed exactly as he was when he had shown up at the party the previous night. He still had his walking stick with him.
"Well, Well, Lola. Fancy seeing you here." Brendan greeted.
"What are you doing?" Lola asked.
"I'm simply carrying out the wishes of my father."
"Your father?"
"Yes, the person who you murdered."
"What?"
"You don't remember what happened in the caves when you were 14?"
"Yes, I remember what happened that day. That was the worst moment of my life."
"You were responsible for the death of my father, Dave."
"You're his son?"
"Yes, Dave was my father, and you were responsible for killing him."
"That was an accident, and anyway, how do you know about that incident?"
"Because I was there."
"What?"
"I was on the other side of the bridge. I was looking out from a hole that I had dug in the side of the wall. I saw the whole incident."
"But what are you doing anyway?"
"I'm simply recovering the rabbit family fortune. By re-writing people's memories with another, I can trick people into giving me thousands. And then I can reclaim what I was forced to leave."
"What you were forced to leave?"
"Yes. I had a son about 6 years ago but I couldn't keep him. After 2 years I abandoned him in the hopes that someone would find him."
"You abandoned your own son?"
"Yes. One day, I will be able to acquire the funds to reclaim Zach." Lola gasped in horror. The Zach that Daffy and Melissa had adopted was this guy's son. FoxFang and Cub, who were listening in on the conversation, couldn't believe it either. Cub was able to hide his emotions successfully and remained completely serious.
"You have been abusing a device my father made to help people around the world. I won't let you continue!"
"But you will. I shall re-write your memory so you will not remember any of this."
"You will do no such thing!" FoxFang shouted. She and Cub jumped on top of another and drew a Fangmerang each. They had both heard enough and wanted to stop him at all costs.
"Ah, so you are this FoxFang I have heard of. What are you doing here?"
"Stopping you. You will not get what you desire Brendan!"
"Brendan? Don't call me that anymore. Call me Eagle. A lethal bird with style"
With that, Eagle took on a fighting stance and held his walking stick like a sword. FoxFang and Cub took up a fighting stance of their own. Both sides watched and waited to see who would make the first move. Lola kept her distance and decided to leave the fighting to FoxFang and Cub. King got ready to pounce given the order. It was eventually Eagle who made the first move. He squeezed the handle of his walking stick and a small dagger came out of the end. He rushed at FoxFang and Cub, who simply jumped out of the way of the attack. Cub threw a Fangdart at Eagle's hand. He screeched in pain and dropped his weapon. He quickly recovered and picked it up again. He squeezed the end and it separated along, turning it into a whip. Eagle started lashing his whip around desperately trying to hit either FoxFang or Cub. He was having no luck, as they were too quick. FoxFang and Cub eventually grabbed the whip and held on to it.
"King!" FoxFang instructed. King leapt at Eagle and started biting his leg. Eagle screamed in pain but was able to kick him away. However, the distraction allowed FoxFang and Cub to tug on the whip, pulling Eagle towards them and right into their outstretched fists. Eagle was knocked back and dropped his whip. This time he couldn't reclaim it as FoxFang and Cub were still holding onto it.
"So bird, what do you do now?" Cub asked.
"I do this!" Eagle replied. He rushed at FoxFang and Cub, who just sidestepped and used the whip as a lethal tripwire. Eagle was caught up and fell flat on his face. FoxFang leapt onto his back and was about to cuff him when Eagle flipped over and knocked her to the floor. He then grabbed her and threw her towards the wall. FoxFang was able to catch herself with her hand and lessen the damage of the impact but she was a bit dazed from the impact. Eagle then quickly grabbed his whip and lashed it. Cub was still holding onto it and was thrown into the wall. He was also able to catch himself and prevent serious injury but was dazed a little as well.
"Now who's on top?" Eagle asked. He didn't realise that King was on his feet. King immediately rushed in to defend his owners and pinned Eagle to the floor. FoxFang and Cub had recovered and quickly rushed over and cuffed him
"I think we're on top." FoxFang said. Eagle was about to say something when he felt a sharp blow to his head. Lola had kicked him in the head and knocked him out.
"That was for you, father." Lola muttered.
Eagle was completely unconscious and immobilised, as were all of the criminals that FoxFang placed under arrest. Lola was still standing near Eagle, looking at him with a look of disgust. FoxFang and Cub were examining another. It was amazing that such a device could do such damage. King was sitting next to them, also curious. FoxFang and Cub knew that if another was used on them, their identities would be discovered. Eagle had shown them how dangerous a device it was. However, by legal rights, the legal owner was in fact Lola, so it was her decision as to what happens to it. They would ask her what she wanted done with it. One thing that was certain, while Eagle couldn't be arrested for abusing another, he could be arrested for party crashing. Lola was curious as to how Eagle was able to get in without being questioned by the police. She was going to ask him when he regained consciousness. FoxFang and Cub then approached her. They had something they needed to ask her.
"Mrs. Lola, by legal rights, another belongs to you. What do you want done with it?" FoxFang asked. Lola had to think for a few seconds before she came up with her answer.
"I want it to be left here. I'll take the device that controls it so no one can abuse it again."
"Ok, now we need to head back to the city."
"We'll carry Eagle, can you open the doors for us?" Cub asked.
"Sure." Lola replied. FoxFang and Cub picked up Eagle while Lola opened the door that led back to the cave. Lola went first so she could open the door at the bottom of the staircase, with FoxFang and Cub following, easily carrying Eagle. After a long walk, the group returned to the beach where the FoxChopper was waiting. FoxFang and Cub went over to place Eagle in the FoxChopper while Lola had a look at the night sky. It was exactly the same at that time when A had left to the other side. As she looked at the sky, she was reminded of her adventures through the mansion with A. It was a day she still remembered even to this day. The fact that she had told her daughter about that day made it slightly more special for her. It made the day more like a family moment. She hadn't had time to tell Bugs about the day yet, but she was going to tell him about it when she got back. She was also remembering her dad. He didn't want another to be used how both Dave and his son wanted to use it. She reached into her pocket and pulled out the DAS. She was taking it back as a memento and to prevent people from abusing another. She was glad she was able to prevent another's misuse. As she was looking in the sky, she then saw a ghostly figure appear in the sky. The figure was a male rabbit who she recognized and she was amazed to see.
"Father?" Lola gasped. It was Robert. He smiled at Lola and then disappeared. Lola was very briefly reunited with her ghostly friends from years ago. She felt a wave of nostalgia soon after Robert disappeared. It was just like when she was here before, when Lola saw her mother's image in the sky before heading home. Lola then felt a something on her shoulder. She had a look and saw that Cub had jumped on her shoulder.
"We're ready to go." Cub said. Lola nodded and followed him back to the FoxChopper. She only looked back once before she boarded the FoxChopper. Eagle had been restrained completely even though he had regained consciousness. King was watching him to make sure that he didn't try anything. FoxFang was the pilot while Cub was in the front passenger side. Lola, as before, was in the back compartment. She also kept an eye on Eagle to make sure that he didn't struggle.
