Chapter 4: 2 Fast, 2 Furry-ous
The same day, near some road in the desert, there was a restaurant. Some people were there to eat, having conversations with one another. Sitting at a table were one young man and one young woman.
The young man was red-haired. He was wearing a white shirt, a green sleeveless vest, black pants and white shoes. His name is Wallace "Wally" West.
The young woman was a black-haired Korean-American. She was wearing a purple long-sleeved shirt, a black jacket, blue jeans, and brown sandals. Her name is Linda Park, Wally's girlfriend. The two of them decided to go on a trip around the country, just the two of them.
"I'm just saying, Linda. Between you and me, my feet are stronger than yours." Wally said to her.
"Oh, yeah?" Linda asked, smiling deviously. "Say that to my feet." She said as she immediately removed her feet from her sandals and shoved them onto Wally's face, all without moving from her chair.
"Hum, Linda? I want to eat and doing so with feet on my face is kinda difficult."
The young woman smirked before putting her feet back under the table.
"Okay, Wally. There's no doubt they have more muscles than mine because of you-know-what." She then looked confused. "By the way, how did we end up from talking about where to go next to talking about whose feet was stronger?"
Wally looked up, thinking about it before having a blank expression. "Honestly, I forgot. We've been talking for, like what, 15 minutes? I'm not really sure."
"Whatever..." she shrugged. "I do remember we ordered our dinner, though."
"Here's your submarine sandwich, madam. Here are your six hamburgers, sir." A waiter said as he arrived to bring some food to the couple.
"Thanks." They both replied to the waiter before he left to serve other customers.
Linda looked at her submarine before looking at Wally, who was licking in delight at the hamburgers.
"Okay, I still find it odd that you can eat THAT much in one dinner." The young woman commented.
"Blame that on my metabolism." The young man replied before taking a bite of one of his hamburgers.
Meanwhile, in that same desert, someone was waiting at some place. That someone was actually a bird. To be more exact, it was a tall blue-feathered bird. His body was small while his neck was tall. His tail was tall as well. His wings were smalls. He had long orange/brown legs. Purple feathers covered his head and his wings. His beak was yellow. This was none other than the Road Runner. The bird waited, looking around. Suddenly, he noticed someone coming.
"Beep! Beep!" The Road Runner exclaimed with delight.
Whoever was coming arrived with incredible speed right next to the bird. It was a small brown-furred mouse. He was wearing a yellow sombrero, a red ascot, a white shirt and white trousers. His name is Speedy Gonzales.
"Hola, Road Runner!" Speedy saluted. "Are you ready for the race?"
"Beep! Beep!" The bird nodded.
"Excellente! This time, no el Coyote and no el pussygato to ruin our race by finishing first. Also, no audience because it ain't really necessary."
"Beep! Beep!"
"Glad we agree on that, Double R. Let's get ready for this race."
Speedy and the Road Runner prepared themselves for the beginning of the race.
"Uno... Dos... Tres... GO!" the mouse exclaimed, causing the two of them to run fast in the same direction.
Suddenly, while they were running, they stopped moving at once, as if like they were statues. Then, words appeared underneath them. Underneath the Road Runner, it was written "Road Runner – Fastus Birdis". Underneath Speedy, it was written "Speedy Gonzales – Rodentus Mexicanis". Soon after, both racers continued running as if like nothing happened.
"¡Arriba! ¡Arriba! ¡Arriba! ¡Ándale! ¡Ándale!" Speedy exclaimed.
"Beep! Beep!" the Road Runner exclaimed.
While all of this was going on, someone else was spying on them. It was a brown-furred coyote with beige fur on his stomach, his neck, his mouth and cheeks, and inside his long ears. His muzzle was black while his eyes were yellow. His name is Wile E. Coyote. He was looking at both racers with binoculars. However, he was much more interested into the bird than the mouse. The Coyote smirked, licking his mouth. He then summoned a knife and a fork before giving chase to the racers. Just like before, he froze in the air as words appeared underneath. Those words were 'Coyote – Genius Unluckyus'. He then continued running as if like nothing happened. Soon enough, both racers noticed the Road Runner's archenemy following them.
"No! Not el Coyote again! We should lose him at once." The mouse said to the bird.
The Road Runner nodded to his friend before sticking out his tongue.
"Beep! Beep!"
Suddenly, Speedy and the Road Runner ran faster at once. Gradually, the Coyote stopped running, looking in disbelief at what he just saw. His jaw fell on the ground before going back up. Wile E. then walked around in a circle, thinking about a good plan. He then stopped walking as he smirked at the readers.
Several minutes later, the Coyote had a great plan. He was able to build a pair of super-shoes, which were able to make him run faster. Wile E. tested them by running around. He was soon satisfied by how efficient those shoes were.
"Beep! Beep!"
"¡Arriba! ¡Arriba!"
The Coyote turned around to see both racers coming soon. As soon as they ran past them, he gave them chase with his super-shoes. Surprisingly, they were able to keep up with the racers. Seeing the Coyote following them like that, the Road Runner then whispered something in Speedy's ear. The latter gave him a thumbs up before they decided to suddenly turn left. The Coyote also turned left to continue following them. They arrived on some road, which led to a tunnel. The Road Runner and Speedy entered said tunnel. A few seconds later, Wile E. entered it too. Suddenly, a honking noise was heard. Several seconds later, the Coyote was running away as fast as he could in panic from the tunnel. A big truck was pursuing him. Eventually, the Coyote arrived next to the edge of a cliff. He looked behind him and was terrified to see the truck coming at him, to the point he started to pray for mercy. Fortunately, the truck turned right because that's where the road was going. Seeing that, the Coyote sighed in relief, rubbing his forehead while doing so.
"BEEP! BEEP!"
Wile E. yelped in surprise as he jumped in the air after hearing that. He turned to see the Road Runner and Speedy on the edge of the cliff, looking at him. Both racers pointed down. The Coyote looked down and realized he was in midair, about to fall down a cliff for the 'who-knows-how-many' time. He gave a panicked look at the readers before falling for several long seconds.
POW!
Later on, the Coyote had another idea. He built a big rocket that would allow him to go faster than both racers. He rubbed his hands with glee, thinking his plan would work.
"¡Andale! ¡Andale! ¡Arriba!"
"Beep! Beep!"
The Coyote got himself ready. Both racers ran past him. Wile E. lit a match and used it to light the fuse on the rocket. Immediately, the rocket was launched and flew quickly towards the racers. This continued for a long while. Eventually, the racers and the rocket went past the same restaurant from earlier. The rocket actually got the attention from the people inside the restaurant. All the workers and customers were worried the rocket was another plan from another supervillain. Seeing that, Wally stood up from his chair.
"I'll be back in a moment, Linda." He said to his girlfriend.
"I know. Just make sure your tights don't get too much dirt on them." She whispered while winking at him.
Wally smirked at that before discreetly exiting the restaurant and hiding behind some rock. Within only a few seconds, he changed clothes. He was now wearing a red suit with yellow marks on his arms and at the middle of his body, two yellow lightning bolts (one on each side of his head), a yellow lightning bolt logo on his chest, and yellow boots. He turned into his secret identity: The Flash!
The Scarlet Speedster ran with incredible speed towards the rocket. A few seconds later, Flash ran alongside said rocket. The superhero decided to run faster than it. Just when he arrived in front of it, he saw something that instantly made him question whether or not he was dreaming. Much to his amazement, he saw Speedy Gonzales and the Road Runner running together. Both Looney Tunes turned their head and noticed Flash.
"Oh! Hola, Señor el Flash!" the mouse said while both he and the bird were waving at the superhero.
The latter rubbed his eyes soon after, still having a hard time believing he saw that.
"Okay, it's official. I'm watching way too many cartoons." Flash said to himself. "Just what's going on here?" he asked to the Looney Tunes.
"Look who's piloting that rocket." Speedy said.
The superhero looked behind and noticed Wile E. Coyote on top of the rocket.
"So... Basically, that rocket is just another Acme product used by the Coyote."
"Sí." Speedy nodded.
"Well, if there's one thing I learned from Looney Tunes shorts is the fact that no matter what happens, the Coyote will always fail." Flash said while thinking of a plan.
"We still need an idea for that to happen."
"Right. And I think I know just the one thing to do." The Scarlet Speedster said with a smirk. "Just follow me!"
The Road Runner and Speedy nodded before following Flash, who ran in one direction in particular. The Coyote followed all three of them. After a while, the three speedsters arrived on some railroad and continued running on it. They ran until they came closer to a train coming towards them. Right before the train could hit them, they split, with the Road Runner going to the left and the other two going to the right. However, Wile E., still on his rocket, yelped in alarm when he noticed the train coming towards him. Quickly, he dodged the train by going up, narrowly avoiding it. The Coyote sighed in relief, rubbing his forehead. All of sudden, when he turned his head around, his eyes went wide in shock when he realized he was heading straight towards a cliff. Despite all his efforts to avoid the cliff, the Coyote and his rocket disappeared inside the cliff, leaving a huge hole inside of it. Flash and the other two Looney Tunes reunited, looking at the hole inside the cliff.
"That should take care of him for a while." Speedy commented.
"I sure hope so." Flash said. He then looked back at the mouse and the bird, still finding it hard to believe. "So... You guys are the Looney Tunes, right?"
"Sí! I'm Speedy Gonzales, el fastest mouse in all Mexico and... Ow!" Speedy exclaimed.
He looked up and noticed the superhero poking at him. Flash then poked at the Road Runner.
"I still find it hard to believe you guys are real. Somebody pinch me... OW!"
Flash looked up and noticed Speedy pinching his leg.
"What? You literally asked for it." The mouse replied.
"Well, it confirms I'm not dreaming. But still, how come you guys are... well, here?" the Scarlet Speedster asked.
"I don't know. I never thought I'd met a real-life celebrity today. All I know is that me and Double R were having a race to decide who's the fastest." Speedy then smiled as he got an idea. "How about you join us? Let's decide which one between the three of us is the fastest."
"Hum... How long will the race be?" Flash asked, thinking about Linda waiting for him at the restaurant.
"Hmm... How about racing all around the desert and come back here?" Speedy suggested.
The superhero looked around, taking a look at the desert. He then smirked.
"Sure. It should only take me one or two minutes."
"Bueno! Let's try this!" the mouse said, excited.
"Beep! Beep!" The Road Runner said, smiling.
All three racers got themselves ready to race.
"What did you expect, señors and señoritas?" Speedy commented to the readers. "In a story like this, a three-way race between me, the Road Runner and the Flash is almost obligatory. Besides, I know most of you wanted to see that at some point."
The Road Runner nodded to that while Flash simply looked confused, having no idea who Speedy was talking to.
"Uno... Dos... Tres... GO!" The mouse exclaimed, causing all three of them to start racing.
Suddenly, the three of them froze in position, unable to move. Flash found it rather odd.
"Hey! What's going on!?"
Then, some words appeared next to the superhero. It said "Flash – Speedus Funnus."
"HA! Should have seen that coming!" Flash said, grinning.
Soon after, they unfroze and continued the race as if nothing happened.
A few minutes later, all three racers were still racing.
"What happened to that 'one or two minutes' statement of yours?" Speedy asked to Flash, smirking.
"I forgot how large that desert was. But the race should be over in not too long, Speedy!" the superhero said, smirking as well.
"Beep! Beep!" The bird exclaimed.
"I don't know what you're saying, but... WHOA!"
Flash suddenly started sliding on the road. He was barely able to keep his balance until he landed on his stomach. When he landed on the ground, the superhero kept sliding until he finally stopped a few seconds later. The Scarlet Speedster groaned as he stood up. He then realized what was going on: they arrived on a ground covered by ice. Speedy and the Road Runner then arrived next to the superhero.
"Are you okay?" Speedy asked.
"Eh, it's nothing painful." Flash replied, brushing it off.
"Beep! Beep!" the Road Runner said, looking at the ice covering the ground.
"Aye caramba! It's the first time I see ice in a desert." The mouse said, puzzled by what he was seeing.
"I think I know what's going on..." Flash said before running away.
"Hey! Wait for us!" Speedy exclaimed.
"Beep! Beep!"
Both Looney Tunes ran away, following the superhero. The latter continued running until he arrived next to the restaurant, which was also covered in ice. There, people were panicking. Flash then noticed the one thing causing all this panic. A huge blue-colored machine, with large canons shooting ice to the ground, was right next to the restaurant. The area wasn't entirely covered in ice, but there was still quite a lot of ice. Flash looked up to the center of the machine, where a platform was set. There stood a man he recognized.
It was a man wearing a blue and white parka. He was also wearing white gloves, a yellow belt with holsters, white boots and a pair of blue goggles.
"Captain Cold..." Flash said at his sight.
"About time you finally arrived, Flash." Captain Cold said. "I've been searching for you for a while and I've found you here."
"What do you want, Lenny?" the superhero asked, referring to the villain's real name, 'Leonard Snart'.
"I'm just really tired of you messing up with my plans. I'm gonna do a big favor to not just me, but to the rest of the Rogues as well by getting rid of you." The villain replied.
"How? By freezing me to death? I doubt that'll work, judging by past experiences." Flash said, smirking.
"Mock me all you want, I've made sure this time will be much more difficult for you to defeat me. Among other things, I've taken someone hostage." Captain Cold said, smirking.
He pushed on a button from a remote control he was holding. Soon enough, from the top left of the machine, a hole was opening, in which case someone was lowered down from a rope. It was Linda, to be exact. She was gagged with tape covering her mouth. She also had tapes binding her arms on her sides, along with some more tapes binding her legs together.
"Whllm! Ghf mft!" Linda mumbled through the tape while struggling to get herself free.
"Oh, crap." Flash said in shock when he saw his girlfriend like that.
She then glared at Captain Cold.
"Hmm! Hmm hmf ght hwmff wmmf thh!" she exclaimed to the villain.
"Stop wasting your energy like that! You know damn well I can't understand you." Captain Cold snapped at her, still earning a glare from her.
Linda kept struggling. However, all it did was letting her sandals get loose and fall down on a part of the ground that wasn't covered in ice. She looked at Flash, who seemed more determined now.
"Let her go, Captain Cold!"
"Oh, sure. But only after my robots get to play with you." The villain said with a smirk before pushing on another button.
Soon after, about a dozen robots appeared from the giant machine. The robots summoned large guns from their body and aimed at the superhero. They all shot a large amount of ice towards him. Fortunately, Flash was fast enough to avoid them. He then ran to the opposite side of the restaurant. There, he stood there for a few seconds, thinking of what to do. All of sudden, Speedy and the Road Runner arrived right next to him.
"Hey! Señor Flash, what's going on?" the mouse asked.
"An enemy of mine is turning this desert into an ice-covered place. Also, he has taken a woman hostage." Flash explained.
"Your girlfriend?" Speedy asked, causing the superhero to arch an eyebrow at that.
"How did you know that?"
"I didn't know. I was only asking a question and you just answered it." The mouse replied, smirking.
"Aw, geez." Flash said, feeling like an idiot as he slapped his forehead that he gave away that answer so easily before sighing. "Well, I gotta save her first." Flash said.
"We can help you if you want."
"You guys are ready to help with that?"
"Sure! It's not like we're busy doing something else. Well, okay, there's still the race, but it can wait for a while." Speedy replied.
"Beep! Beep!" The Road Runner agreed.
"Okay then. First, we gotta deal with those robots." The superhero said.
"Roger that, Señor Flash." Speedy nodded before running towards the robots.
The Road Runner then stuck out his tongue.
"Beep! Beep!" the bird exclaimed before running towards the robots as well.
One robot kept shooting at the Road Runner. The latter then ran next to another robot, which caused the first robot to accidentally freeze the second one. The bird used that same strategy with several other robots. At the same time, Speedy arrived right in front of one robot. The mouse blew a raspberry at it. The robot shot at him, but missed him when Speedy ran fast to a few feet from where he was.
"Missed me!" The mouse exclaimed.
The robot shot at him again. The mouse dodged it the same way as before.
"Missed me again!"
The robot shot a third time and missed its target again.
"You're terrible at this, Señor robot!"
Then, the robot shot at the mouse several times in a row without ever stopping. This time, Speedy was having a harder time dodging the icy shots. He soon got an idea. The mouse ran towards the robot, running up to the top of the mechanical being's head.
"I'm on your head and you still haven't managed to beat me. What a disappointment." Speedy said, in a complaining tone.
The robot aimed towards the top of its own head. Right before the mechanical being shot, the mouse ran away, causing the robot to freeze itself. Speedy smirked at the sight of that. He then ran towards the other robots, doing the same thing by running to the top of their heads each time.
After a while, all the robots were stuck inside large chunks of ice, thanks to the Looney Tunes. Speedy and the Road Runner high-fived each other (the latter using his foot), proud of their work.
"Beep! Beep!"
"I agree, Double R. We did a fantàstico job! Don't you agree, Señor Flash?" Speedy asked the superhero. "Señor Flash?"
The mouse and the bird looked around, wondering where the Scarlet Speedster went.
"Hum, guys? Over here."
The two of them looked up at the huge machine where Captain Cold was. There, Flash was stuck inside some block of ice, with his head being the only thing to stick out from this block.
"I made a mistake while you were busy taking out those robots." Flash said, sheepishly.
"A pretty stupid mistake, if you ask me." Captain Cold said to him. "Sometimes, I miss your predecessor. He was MUCH better at that than you ever were." He added, smirking.
The Scarlet Speedster frowned at the villain for what he just said. Speedy and the Road Runner nodded to each other before running towards the machine. As they arrived next to the villain, the latter immediately shot them with his Cold Gun, trapping them inside one big block of ice. Captain Cold then took a look at the Looney Tunes, quite surprised to see them.
"Two Looney Tunes? In real life? Never thought I'd see that happening in all my life." The villain said before smirking. "I don't know where you two come from, but I'm pretty sure someone would pay the big price for having both of you."
"You wanna sell us?" Speedy asked, worried.
"Pretty much, yeah."
While all of this was going on, Linda was still struggling through her bonds, trying to get herself free. She then noticed Captain Cold, the latter being busy talking with the heroes. She also noticed the Cold Guns in his hands. The young woman looked at her feet. With determination showing in her face, she swung herself back and forth from the rope she was tied to. At this moment, Captain Cold got ready to aim at the heroes.
"I'm gonna just add more ice to you all." The villain said to all three fast heroes. "That way, you will have less of a chance to escape..."
He was interrupted as Linda kicked him in the back of his head with her feet. This caused Captain Cold to accidentally throw the Cold Guns in the air while landing on his face. Quickly, Linda swung back again and immediately grabbed one of the Cold Guns with her feet. The young woman then raised her legs up until her chest, aiming the weapon at the villain. She made sure her right big toe was able to press the trigger.
"What the..."
Captain Cold was interrupted again as he was now stuck inside a block of ice as well. Linda sighed behind her gag, lowering her legs.
"Don't try at home what she did, kids. It's too dangerous." Speedy said to the readers.
A few seconds later, Flash managed to free himself from the ice block by vibrating through it. He then stretched his body, after a while of getting stuck inside that ice. Suddenly, the rope holding Linda broke itself, letting her fall to the ground. Quickly, Flash ran down the machine and arrived right below where his girlfriend would fall. He then rotated his arms towards her, making some whirlwind to slow down her fall. Soon enough, the superhero managed to catch her in his arms. The Scarlet Speedster put her on the ground and grabbed one end of the tape that was still binding her legs and one end of the tape that was doing the same thing to her arms.
"Don't worry. All that tape will be gone right now." Flash said to her.
Holding tight onto both tapes and using his speed to run away, he managed to remove all that tape in a few seconds. However, this had the effect of making Linda spinning around like a tornado. After the tape was removed, she was still spinning until she eventually slowed down. The young woman was feeling dizzy, walking around while trying to keep her balance. She was about to fall on her back, but Flash was quick enough to catch her before that. He helped her standing up while the young woman was holding her head.
"Do you feel better now, Linda?" the superhero asked her.
"Hmpf. Hmm hmmpft." She then realized she still had the tape gagging her mouth. Linda groaned in annoyance and rolled her eyes before immediately removing the tape at once herself. "Yeah. I'm alright."
"Señor Flash? Little help needed here!" Speedy shouted from where he was.
Flash ran back to the machine, stopping right next to the Looney Tunes who were still stuck inside the ice blocks. The superhero thought about what to do to get them out. He snapped his fingers as he seemed to have found an idea.
"You guys can survive any fall, right?" the Scarlet Speedster asked them.
"Technically, yes. But why... Uh-oh." Speedy said as he realized what the superhero was about to do.
The latter pushed both ice blocks towards the edge of the machine.
"Nonononononono!" the mouse exclaimed while both him and the bird fell down the machine.
Upon landing, the blocks destroyed themselves, freeing both Looney Tunes. The two of them groaned in pain before standing up. Flash joined them soon after.
"Ugh... Thanks." Speedy said while rubbing his back.
"Beep! Beep!" the Road Runner exclaimed.
"No problem, guys." The superhero replied.
"So... Are you going to deliver that cold-themed villain to the nearest prison?" Speedy asked.
"Already called the cops while you guys were falling down." Flash replied, smirking. "Now, let's go to a more private place. I don't want the customers at the restaurant to ask us questions."
The Looney Tunes nodded at that. All three of them then ran towards Linda. Flash grabbed her and carried her in his arms while still running.
The fast heroes ran far enough from the restaurant, going into the emptiest place in the desert. They arrived on top of a really small hill. The Scarlet Speedster then put his girlfriend on the ground, allowing her to stand up on her bare feet. She then looked at Speedy and the Road Runner and rubbed her eyes before looking at them again. Linda couldn't believe what she was seeing.
"Hum... Is that the Road Runner and Speedy Gonzales?" she asked, a bit confused.
"Yup. And some minutes ago, I came across Wile E. Coyote." Flash said, grinning.
"But... How is that even possible?" Linda asked. "I mean... They're cartoon characters. There's no way they could appear in our world and be able to interact with us. This isn't "Space Jam", or that "Back in Action" movie!"
"I'm just as surprised to see them as you do, Linda. Then again, considering all the weird stuff I've seen as a superhero, this is basically an average Wednesday by comparison." The Scarlet Speedster said.
"Yeah, but still... How do you explain the fact they're here?"
"We told Señor Flash we didn't know how we ended up here either." Speedy replied, with the Road Runner nodding at that.
"I'm gonna go ask some colleagues if they can do anything about it." The superhero said. He then realized what that meant and looked back at his girlfriend. "Hum... Does it bother you if we postpone our trip across the USA?" he asked her while rubbing the back of his head.
"A little bit, but I can understand. Just be careful with what you're gonna do next." Linda replied as she put her arms around his head.
"I'm always careful. Don't worry about it, Linda. And I'm really sorry we have to postpone it." Flash said as he put his hands around her waist.
She smirked before kissing him, with the latter kissing her back.
"Awww, so romàntico." Speedy said, smiling while holding his hands together.
Flash and Linda stopped kissing when they remembered they weren't alone.
"Oops! Sorry about that." The mouse said, sheepishly.
"We were done anyway." The young woman said while smirking at her boyfriend.
Meanwhile, back in Metropolis, there was a building with a huge stylized 'L' on it, with the name 'LexCorp' underneath the letter. Inside the building, someone was working inside a huge room, sitting at his desk. It was a bald man, wearing a white shirt, a black vest, black pants, black shoes and a black necktie. His name is Lex Luthor. He was known for being one of the most powerful individuals in Metropolis. However, he was also known as Superman's archenemy. At this moment, the bald man decided to take the remote control and turn on the TV. The latter showed some news reporter who was a blond-haired woman.
"This is Cat Grant. Last night, the criminal known as Metallo made some damages in the street in yet another fight with the Man of Steel himself, Superman." She said while holding a microphone.
At this moment, Luthor didn't seem much interested. Superman fighting one of his usual enemies wasn't something that was rare to see.
"Metropolis' hero saved the day once again. However, what was more incredible to see was the fact that Bugs Bunny, famous animation icon created in the forties, made his appearance and helped Superman taking down Metallo." Cat said.
Luthor arched an eyebrow at that. Soon enough, footage of the fight was shown on TV. It showed Metallo weakening Superman with his Kryptonite. The bald man's eyes widened when he saw the rabbit appearing while dressed like a mechanic and playing with what was inside Metallo's metallic body.
"Several citizens of Metropolis witnessed the sudden appearance of the animated rabbit." Cat continued. "As you can see from those footages, which had been filmed by some of those same citizens, Bugs Bunny DID appear from who knows where. Some parents even told us their kids managed to touch the animation icon. Unfortunately, Superman left soon after, bringing Bugs Bunny with him. The Man of Steel and the 'rascally rabbit', as he's often called, haven't been seen ever since."
Luthor pressed the 'pause' button, pausing the TV on an image of Bugs Bunny standing next to Superman. The bald man stared at it for a while. He then rubbed his forehead in annoyance.
"This is just ridiculous." Luthor said to himself. "The alien meeting Bugs Bunny? Give me a break..."
Suddenly, Luthor thought about something. The bald man gradually smirked while thinking about it.
"Maybe it's not that ridiculous after all..."
End of chapter.
Flash has met both Speedy Gonzales and the Road Runner. Lex Luthor is also aware of Bugs Bunny's presence in the real world. For the next chapter, I'll give you a hint. One of the characters in the upcoming chapter has something to do with the color 'green'. Yeah, it COULD be Green Lantern, but it also could be Green Arrow, or Martian Manhunter, whose skin is also green. Either way, you'll have to wait the next chapter to find out.
The chapter's title is a reference to "Fast and Furry-ous", the very first short to star the Road Runner and Wile E. Coyote. It's also a reference to "2 Fast, 2 Furious", the second movie in the movie franchise "The Fast and the Furious".
Speedy's comment about no Coyote and no Sylvester to ruin their race is a reference to the short "The Wild Chase".
I didn't want to have Linda becoming a damsel in distress just for the sake of it. So, I decided to also have her be the one who saves the day. Also, the part with Luthor was something I wanted to add in Chapter 2. Then, I decided I wanted to put it in Chapter 3. Finally, I decided to put it in this chapter.
