Ralph: Duuuh? Won't we gets in trouble for writing on their story?

Plotz: No we won't. They haven't been here since the last time this was updated. Heh heh!

BlackLouie: What you you two doing!?

Plotz: It was Ralph's idea!

BlackLouie: Don't make me paddle you two... March!

*Plotz and Ralph leave BlackLouie's account.*

Thank you all for waiting, I'm sorry that I haven't been working on this for a while, I just got this chapter in. I'm working, I'm very busy with animations and I've had less time for this site, but that doesn't mean I'll stop making chapters or even writing period. I always write dialogues for my comics and stories, so why stop now? Anyway, I guess I've run my mouth/words for too long now. Enjoy the chapter!


Yakko was out in the Forest of Chambers. He never knew why the folks of the new town called it that. He was guessing that something was hidden in there. As he searched around trees, brushes and rocks, he couldn't seem to find Nakko and Rakko anywhere.

"Man, those two sure know how to hide. I wonder where they went..." Yakko was confused as he finally came across someone else.

"Who are you?" The voice asked.

"Who me? I know you are but what am I?" Yakko mocked the shadowed figure.

"Grrr... Stop making fun of me!" The shadowed figure turned out to be a tall guy with red hair and blue eyes, he was holding an axe.

"Oh? Are you from that movie... Uuuuh... The Cutters?" Yakko smirked at him.

"Why you little-! Listen, I have no time for this! What are you doing in my forest?" The man grumbled as he picked up Yakko by the scarf of his neck.

"Well, let's see... Uuuh, have you seen two warners like me? One is named Nakko and the other one is named Rakko." Yakko finally asked the man who took him away.

"Oh... You mean the guy in red pants the brown guy in gray pants? Ha ha ha! I know where they are and you will be joining them..." The man laughed in his face and proceeded to take Yakko to a secret area away from Wakko and Dot.

"You must really hate us warners. Why are you such a jerk?" Yakko finally asked with another smirk on his face as the man threw Yakko into a cage as the door slammed shut from the collision. Yakko rubbed his head and looked to his left, two other cages were seen.

"Geez, Yakko, you sure got yourself into hot water like we did." A familiar voice came from one of the cages.

"Nakko? Is that you?" Yakko wasn't able to see him through the area he was in.

"Yep. We got captured and ended up in this man's stupid place he calls home! It's a broken down wooden building!" Nakko growled.

"I hope we can get help..." Rakko whimpered and tried to keep a straight face. He thought that they would be doomed forever but Yakko spoke again.

"Listen, maybe we don't have to have Wakko and Dot run all the way here. It's too dangerous with that man around. I don't know his name but he's not as smart either." Yakko spoke up to the two warners.

"We don't? How do you suppose we get out?" Rakko uncovered his face from his hands and looked back at Yakko.

"We just need someone to distract him when he gets back in here with someone else." Yakko giggled at the thought of the man being trapped in his own cage.

"How are we going to do that?" Nakko placed his hands on his hips and turned his back on his cousin.

"I'll do the talking and you two will have to brace yourselves for the action! My name is Yakko for a reason and Yakko spelled backwards is Okkay!" Yakko grinned while Nakko could only huff and agree with Yakko's idea. Rakko smiled and closed his eyes. He was tired from playing and running around.

Yakko's thoughtful grin was becoming a plan.


At the Castle...

Salazar was pacing back and forth, waiting for Yi'Lang. As he sighed, he noticed that Plotz and Ralph were coming towards him.

"Yes?" Salazar gave them a look of annoyance. He wanted to be alone but they were in need of his help.

"Well Salazar, Ralph and I looked everywhere for , but we cannot find her. She is gone and we will have to get someone new to cook for you. We understand that um, chef Damzy isn't good enough." Plotz sighed in defeat.

"Forget about her, I'm worried about that person that fought with me in the bar not too long ago. I want her captured and executed in case she tries to overthrow me and the kingdom I built!" Salazar growled at him.

"B-but sir! The person that attacked you should be miles away by now! W-why do you need them?" Plotz wondered as the king grabbed him by the scarf of his shirt.

"Listen, if you were on the run and you came back, people might think of you as a traitor to the kingdom or a stranger with no business... Get out of my sight, I got important things to do. I have to make more taxes. Why don't you and Ralph gather the townsfolk and make them pay for the lights around town." Salazar dropped Plotz to the floor.

"Y-yes, your majesty. We shall do it." Plotz felt uncertain about the whole thing. Though he wanted the money because he became greedy and the king didn't even pay them for their services to the kingdom.

Salazar went back into the top chamber of the castle where William and Bobesca used to be when they were alive at the time and he took out a feather and ink and started writing down his next plan. A guard sat at the other side of the table and the two started a conversation.

"So, what are you doing now?" The guard asked while playing with a gold coin in his hand. Salazar looked up at the guard and saw the coin. He snatched it out of his hand.

"Stop playing with my money! I'm busy writing down my next plan and announcement to the kingdom. It seems like some of the townsfolk are following the path of that dreaded William The Good as known as William Warner..." Salazar growled and was annoyed by just saying the old king's name.

"Ah and what might that announcement be?" The guard at the other end of the table asked while playing with a gold cup at the other end of the table. Salazar smacked the cup off of the table.

"STOP PLAYING WITH MY GOLDEN CUPS! I'm planning on making a hard announcement that will make people pay taxes for everything they use, own and have now! I don't want to hear William's name anymore either as I will make that the biggest law of them all. If someone were to even say his name, they will be taxed 80%." Salazar growled and continued writing things down.

"Isn't that harsh, man?" The guard sounded cool and concerned at the same time.

"Harsh? Why do you think it's harsh when you don't want to hear the name of a dead king who couldn't even rule the town to begin with? Why on earth did William run for being king?" Salazar threw his hands in the air with his closed right hand holding the feather. He finally calmed down and dipped the tip of the feather in more ink and continued writing his announcement.

"Well, in that case, I hope you get your wish, you don't even share with us after all that we did to help you get rid of the warners and their parents." The guard got up from the table and walked around him.

"Where do you think you're going?" Salazar eyed him as he stopped writing.

"I'm going to help guard the castle outside. Thank you for your time, Salazar." He opened the door and left. As Salazar heard the door slam, he looked up at the window to the north of him.

"Grrr... Why must people be so hard on me as if I did something wrong to them?" Salazar couldn't help but ask. He suddenly heard the sounds of Plotz and Ralph taking tax money from the townsfolk again. It finally felt like music to his ears.

"Ah, music to my ears... I love the sound of getting tax money from the people. Everything will be rebuilt in a matter of years. This old legacy that old man has brought to this castle is boring and worthless, but a new era has begun and I will be richer and make this place an industry!" Salazar laughed. His laugh could be heard by the townsfolk and Plotz and Ralph.

"Do you think the king is crazy?" Plotz suddenly looked up at Ralph.

"Duuh, he sounds fines to me." Ralph smiled as Plotz smacked his face and looked at him in the eyes.

"No! That laughter is just him going insane! Once we get this tax money, we are leaving! Don't tell that fool of a king anything! Don't even tell the guards!" Exclaimed while taking money from an old lady and using the gestures of his hand to shoo her away.

"Oooh, so we are leaving without telling the king? But isn't that bad?" Ralph felt guilty about lying and leaving with money that belonged to the new king.

"Yes, but I don't want to be bossed around anymore. It's time that we pack up and head off after tonight." Plotz finally had a big grin tug at his lips.

"That's trues! Hey, what if we find the daaah, warner kids?" Ralph wondered as Plotz quickly took the last of the money from an older man. Plotz was going to take his cane but he decided to let the man go.

"Listen, the warners are dead. The guards and Salazar made it crystal clear, Ralph! What do you expect them to do? Come back and kill Salazar as ghosts?" Plotz paced around him.

"Dash, noes I guess." Ralph shrugged.

"Come on, we got the money. Let's get out of this dump. Forget about that ugly king." Plotz turned to leave as Ralph looked up at the castle. He gulped before hearing Salazar call for them.

"Hurry up! He's calling for us but we don't have to listen to him!" Plotz beckoned Ralph to tag along with him.

"Ooooh okays!" Ralph ran over to Plotz as the two took off into the forest near them. By the time the king got outside of the castle after calling their names several times, no one was near the tax booth.

"Where in the hell did they go!?" Salazar growled in frustration.

A few guards that were behind him tried to get his attention.

"What is it you moron?" Salazar looked at the tallest guard who had fully grown hair and a mustache.

"I think they ditched you." He guessed.

"Ditched!? Why would they want to ditch me!? I gave those two everything! They get to sleep downstairs of the castle where that old lady use to sleep! What is it that they want from me?" Salazar huffed and tried to see where they went. He finally saw two sets of foot prints. One was bigger and one was smaller, the foot prints led into the forest near the bushes.

"So... That is where they went..." Salazar had a sly look on his face as he turned to his men.

"Guards! Gather your horses and more men, I need you all to go after both Plotz and his dumb companion! Bring them back here and you shall be rewarded anything from my treasures in the castle." Salazar gave his orders.

"Yes sir!" The guards shouted in unison as they took off to gather more men in the search. Salazar went back into the castle, he ended up getting a new chef to cook his food so that he could eat a meal and get to back to writing his new speech.


In the old broken down tower...

Wakko and Dot were getting worried about Yakko, Nakko, and Rakko. They were all gone for hours. Wakko couldn't help but pace around the place. Dot watched him until she finally broke the silence.

"Where is *cough!* Yakko and others?" Dot asked while looking at Wakko walk around the room.

"I don't know... I wish they'd be here by now." Wakko started to feel a chill run down his spine as he noticed the wind was starting to blow. Dot began to shiver.

"Is it me or it is getting cold in here? *Cough!*" She coughed again.

"It's the wind. We have to get upstairs!" Wakko grabbed Dot by the arm and the two climbed upstairs. Wakko allowed Dot to get to the top first before he finally made it. The two sat on the floor next to each other as Wakko took out a ball from his gag bag and started playing with it. Dot huffed, she as bored without Yakko.

"You know? It would be more fun if Yakko was here right now." Dot sighed.

"Maybe, Yakko will come back. I know it isn't like Yakko to just give up. He always has a way of being the one to break free from the chains." Wakko finally said. This made Dot think hard about it. She finally decided to rest as she fell on her brother's side. Wakko felt her lying on his side as he looked down at her.

"Dot? Are you?" Wakko was worried but then heard her snoring.

(Her sickness is making her even more tired...) Wakko felt worried about her. He allowed her to sleep as he refused to move. He continue to fiddle with the small red ball that he had in his right hand.

From outside of the tower, Ms Schwartz and her new friend were walking by. Macy looked back and saw the tower, it reminded her of the castle and her family. She always thought about her sister but didn't think Salazar had the guts to murder her. She hasn't gotten one letter from her since the time she had all of her children.

"Macy, are you alright?" Ms Schwartz gave the brown warner a worried look. Macy huffed and sighed before she spoke.

"I'm fine... I just feel like I've lost everyone..." Macy almost cried.

"You didn't lose everyone. They are still with you." Ms Schwartz placed her hands around Macy's waist. She was much shorter than the adult warners to reach their shoulders. It was all she could do to comfort Macy.

"Thank you for always being there for them Ms Schwartz. I guess my sister and our children will be watching us." Macy looked up and then back at her friend.

"Of course they will. Let's keep going." Ms Schwartz giggled as they both continued on. The men that followed them were not too far behind as they were using their foot prints.

"Those ladies don't seem too far. We better hurry." Griff looked back at his men.

They all went after the girls in hopes of kidnapping them for money. Mindol grabbed his whip and got on his horse that he had prepared for the journey.

"Are you going to whip them?" The skinny man of the group wondered.

"No. I'm going to rope them in with my whip! I did that with an ugly man at the bar a long time ago." Mindol laughed.

"He started a fight with you?" The skinny man rose a brow as they were walking.

"No, I started it with him. I needed the money for a cabin that I was staying in. I had to pay taxes during the fall season." Mindol replied.

"Ah, it's one of those things where you have to do bad things to better yourself." The skinny man finally continued on. Mindol and his horse followed him. Griff looked ahead as they all made their way passed the broken down tower. From the inside, Wakko and Dot were still sitting on the floor. Wakko finally heard the sound of men talking outside. He carefully got a pillow and placed it under Dot's head so that she didn't hit her head on the wooden floors.

Wakko tip toed to the opening at wall at the tower and saw five men walking in the snow, he didn't know where they were going as he looked back at Dot.

"I hope Yakko wasn't captured by those guys... I wonder if we could follow them... No. It's best that we stay here. I wouldn't want Yakko to search for us." Wakko thought about it before going after them. Dot would was sleeping, felt cold, she coughed in her sleep as Wakko rushed over to her and placed his tail around her.

"It will be alright Dot." Wakko gently hugged her. Dot felt his touch as he murmured in her sleep peacefully.


In the Forest of Chambers...

Yakko was finally out of his cage as he started to sneak up to the man with red hair and blue eyes. He poked at his shoulders as the man quickly looked behind himself to see Yakko standing there.

"Uuuuh... Those cages you placed us in are too small." Yakko grinned.

"How did you escape?" The man slowly came over to the freed warner.

"We love to call it... Air space!" Yakko ran passed him as the man started to chase him.

"Get back here!" The angry man shouted. He got out his axe and tried to slice Yakko's head off.

"If you axe me, then what will will your parents think?" Yakko teased the man as Nakko and Rakko started breaking out of their cages. Once Rakko finally got the pin Yakko found to open his cage, he went over to Nakko to help him out.

"You can't get me!" Rakko could hear Yakko yelling at the man chasing him.

"Heh, Yakko has gotten that man's attention. His escape seemed easier than ours." Rakko giggled.

"Yakko sneaking out of cage by turning thin looks so weird." Nakko didn't want to see Yakko do that again.

"I didn't think that we toons could ever do that to escape." Rakko thought about it as he finally got his bother's cage open.

"Let's get Yakko and run!" Nakko ran ahead with his younger brother behind him. Rakko couldn't help be notice that the man had Yakko cornered.

"What is the plan?" Rakko whispered.

"Hey you big oaf!" Nakko called to the man as the guy turned and saw Nakko and Rakko out of their cages.

"How did you to escape!?" He growled as Yakko quickly leaped on the man's head and bounced over to Nakko and Rakko.

"Listen, we'd love to stay in chat and play games but we got to go!" Yakko and his cousins zoomed out of the broken down house. The man growled and ran outside but the warners were gone.

"DAMN IT!" He yelled out loud. Yakko turned and saw the angry man. He decided to blow him a kiss and continue ahead. Rakko and Nakko followed him back to the tower. On their way back, they noticed a woman and a warner walking.

"Huh?" Nakko was confused. Yakko and Rakko were also standing there. They were looking at both of them.

"That can't be our mom..." Nakko whispered.

"Maybe it's just our eyes." Rakko looked at his older brother.

"I thought I was seeing Ms Schwartz and our aunt." Yakko almost cried.

"Let's just get back to the tower! We lost already!" Nakko ran to the tower. They saw that everything around the tower was the same.

"It's a good thing that everything looks alright. It was a tough day." Yakko sighed.

"Yes, home at last." Rakko yawned.

"I wonder who we saw..." Nakko looked back at Yakko.

"If it was Ms Schwartz and aunt Macy, we must find them and tell them that we are okay." Yakko replied to Nakko's statement as they went upstairs of the tower. Rakko noticed that Wakko ad Dot were asleep on the floor.

"But what if we get into more trouble?" Nakko asked.

"We can't lose the last of our family." Yakko answered while following Rakko.

"Wakko and Dot were tired." Rakko guessed.

"I guess so." Yakko carefully picked up Dot and placed her in bed. Wakko yawned and blinked his eyes open, his vision cleared as he saw Yakko placing Dot in bed.

"Yakko?" Wakko looked at his older brother.

"Wakko, I'm glad that you are safe." Yakko bent down and patted Wakko's head, his cap fell off of his head.

"I missed you!" Wakko hugged his brother.

"I missed you too. I'm sorry that I left you two for so long." Yakko returned the hug.

"What happened?" Wakko looked up at his brother while feeling very cheerful.

"I got into a bit of a fight with some angry man who probably wants to kill me." Yakko laughed.

"Do you think he will come here?" Rakko quickly went over to the opening of the tower downstairs.

"I don't think so. If he does, Wakko could beat them up with all of the gags in his bag." Yakko looked down at his younger brother.

"I can!" Wakko laughed.

"Do you think we can make a map of the area and search for mom and Ms Schwartz tomorrow?" Nakko asked while taking out a large sheet on light brown paper.

"Sure, we would need to write down and draw where they have been." Rakko pointed out while coming back upstairs.

"You've got good ears." Nakko huffed while getting out some ink that he found within the wooden walls and a feather from a white bird.

"Of course I do, the better to hear you with!" Rakko laughed.

They all decided to mark down the area, Yakko and Wakko finally helped Nakko and Rakko map out the rest of the area outside of where they were near Slump Town. Dot was sleeping as her cough seemed to be getting worse. Wakko was unsure of what they could do for her.

Mean while, Salazar was in his chambers of the castle finishing up his speech for next week as the guards were having trouble finding Plotz and Ralph. He got upset and sent the one of his best guards along with his tracking dogs to take over the search. Plotz and Ralph knew that they were being followed as they covered their tracks and kept going. They were getting closer to Slump Town.

The search for help was starting to begin...
