The horrible abominations that were once the Warner siblings now stood over Hello Nurse. Their disgustingly designed bodies seemed to twitch and writhe in ways that shouldn't have been possible, even for a toon. The environment around them seemed to twitch along with them, distorting in ways that defied reality itself.
In a frenzied panic, Hello Nurse reached for the dart gun in her back pocket and fired off every single round into the nightmarish beasts before her. They did nothing to avoid them as every single dart stuck into their bodies. However, they only let out amused giggles at the darts were promptly absorbed into their bodies. The tendrils from Yakko's severed limbs quickly wrapped around the darts and pulled them into his body. Wakko's open mouth wounds grabbed the darts with its "tongues", promptly swallowing them whole. The gaseous substance pouring out of Dot's limbs seemed to envelop the darts and cause them to vanish.
The antidote had done nothing.
Hello Nurse raised the gun again and pulled the trigger frantically.
Click click click click!
She checked the chamber. It was empty. She had used every single dart on the Warners, and it had done nothing. The Warners threw their heads back and cackled loudly, the very fabric of reality around them becoming unstable. Before she realized it, the Warners were right on top of her, pushing her back into the wall.
"You think that little excuse for a weapon will do anything to us?!" Yakko roared, "Ha! You're hilarious! Do you realize just what we've done?! What I have done?! I've broken your stupid little Law of Comedy! Who needs to follow some vague rules set by humans when we can make OUR OWN?!"
Hello Nurse tried to dart away from them, but something grabbed around her body and pulled her back, slamming her on to one of the operations table. She looked down and saw what appeared to be a mass of cartoony arms, complete with four fingered white gloved hands that were holding her firmly to the table instead of the regular leather straps. The surreal sight was incredibly unnerving.
"Oh I've been waiting for this..." Yakko chuckled as a long pole slid out of his severed arm. He grabbed it and brandished it high. It appeared to be an upgraded form of his giant hacksaw, except this one was made entirely of Warnerium, shining brightly and seeming to cut the very air as it was pulled from his arm.
The mad toon flashed an unearthly smile, "You're long overdo for a cosmetic surgery, Ms. Nurse~!"
"Surgery, surgery, surgery~!" Wakko and Dot sang from the sides of the table, their forms contorting and swirling in the rapidly destabilizing world surrounding them.
Everything was flowing together. Like a psychedelic drug, colors flashed and swirled, twisting itself into the solid world, making it difficult to determine what was truly real and what was caused by the presence of the Warners. What was definite was Yakko, approaching slowly with a saw made of Warnerium. The blue ore rapidly changed colors as Yakko gave expressions far beyond any human, toon, or any creature of this dimension. The sound of a classical orchestra playing a funny little cartoon song sped up, slowed down, reversed, and cut out at random as he came closer, seeming to savor the moment.
Hello Nurse couldn't even let out a scream. It was as if her voice had been snatched from her. She laid there frozen as the nightmarish landscape sped up to a nauseating seizure speed.
It all came to a stop with a loud BANG.
Yakko, Wakko, and Dot stepped back. The arms let go of Hello Nurse. The world around them returned to normal. A soft light was pouring into the laboratory from the open doorway. Scratchansniff, Brain, and Plotz were standing there, dumbfounded by the scene of the eldritch horrors terrorizing the blonde haired woman. Hello Nurse scrambled to their sides while the Warners were momentarily stunned.
"What... In heaven's name...?!" Scratchansniff breathed, terrified by the Warners' new appearances.
"What in the name of Einstein have you three done?!" Brain screamed.
"They... They broke the Law of Comedy!" Hello Nurse managed to spit out, her voice barely working.
Brain was shocked by this, and shouted with his voice straining, "Do you realize what you've done?! This was never meant to happen! The Law of Comedy was put in place for a reason! Do you realize that you could very well destroy the world and everyone in it?!"
Dot rolled her eyes, or what was left of them anyways, "That's the whole point, genius."
"Personally, I'm excited to see what planets taste like!" Wakko gave a satisfied growl as the wound in his stomach snapped together loudly, like lips smacking after a tasty meal.
Yakko stepped forward, the ground beneath his paws twisted into an inky abyss, in which more cartoony arms sprouted from like weeds, "I've achieved everything I've worked towards for over twenty years! Toonification has finally been perfected. The Law of Comedy is no more, so says I, Yakko Warner!" He flashed a grin that seemed to split his face in half, "And with these new forms, of course, like any good scientist, I gotta test them out. Who better to test them on than the pests who keep getting in our way?!"
They wasted no time turning and sprinting for their lives. The nightmares that were the Warners gave chase, though it wasn't fair to say they were running after them. It was more like gliding and teleporting short distances to catch up with them.
Brain held on desperately to Scratchansniff's jacket, shaking his head in disbelief, "How could they have achieved this?! I didn't actually think these children could actually break the Law of Comedy! They're just...! Children!"
Suddenly, the tunnels around them started to warp and seemingly move on their own. The cinderblocks that made up the tunnels suddenly changed, opening up and forming cracks that made up heavily distorted faces of the Warners, which let out horrendous cackles and roared in unison.
"THAT'S WHAT YOU THINK, FOREHEAD RAT!"
The group let out terrified screams as they sprinted with every last ounce of their energy. The corridors up ahead were getting tighter, squeezing in on them until they were forced into a single file line. Hello Nurse was panicking as she desperately squeezed her way through the tightening corridor. Right behind her was Mr. Plotz, who had an easier time squeezing thanks to his toon body. Scratchansniff was behind him, with Brain hanging on to his shoulder.
"Oooh Scratchy!" The Warners called from behind. Scratchansniff dared to turn around and saw the Warners looming over him. In the blink of an eye, Yakko snatched his coat and drug him into the shadows of the tunnels with his siblings following behind. Brain only barely managed to jump off his shoulder and grab on to Hello Nurse's blouse, hanging on for dear life. However, this sacrifice proved somewhat beneficial, as the tunnels suddenly snapped back to their normal sizes, allowing Hello Nurse, Brain, and Mr. Plotz to make their way back through the prop filled hall and through the hollowed out steam train replica. They sped up the ladder and back to the studio lot, where they continued to run until they found a closed gift shop, where they forced the door open, barricaded it with tables and chairs, and hid behind the counter, desperately trying to catch their breath.
Once everything had gone quiet was when Hello Nurse decided to let out all the overwhelming emotions. She quietly wept for Scratchansniff, a long time coworker and friend who had been snatched from the group so suddenly. Plotz simply stared off into space, still severely traumatized from everything he had been through. Brain was quiet and stoic, but even this had gotten to him, as he was obsessively scratching at his face and pulling at his ears.
"Scratchansniff..." Hello Nurse whimpered, "What did they do to him? Did... Did they kill him? Will we ever see him again? How... What are we going to do now...?"
Brain slammed his tiny fist against a nearby display case. He shook his head in disbelief as he tried to search his genius intellect for an answer... Any answer. Any at all.
He turned to Hello Nurse, his pink eyes full of despair of the deepest kind.
"I... I don't know if there's anything we can do now." He said, sounding lost and hollow, "We're... Too late. Humanity and toonkind are as good as doomed."
