A/N: Hello. Thank you for your patience. I just finished the next three chapters for the story. :) Now, I haven't mentioned it before, but while Tom and Jerry don't normally speak, outside their work, they're basically like normal people. Just thought I should mention that. Now, there isn't much change fir the next two chapters, but the last one for tonight will have some obvious changes to it. Anywho, enjoy. :)

Chapter 6: Talent Hunting Spree
Later, at New York City, it is nighttime with heavy traffic outside of Madison Square. Inside, there was a basketball game going down between the New York Knicks and Phoenix Suns. Charles Barkley had the ball as he shot it and scored, earning the crowd's boos while the Nerdlucks arrived in disguise, wearing a trench coat and a hat before they bumped into a couple of people.
"Excuse me. Oh, so sorry.", Bang apologized.
"Excuse me.", Nawt added as the disguised Nerdlucks sat down next to the woman.
"Ow! Get your feet out of my nose!", Bupkus exclaimed.
"Quiet, they're looking. Hey, it's basketball.", Nawt whispered while shushing Bupkus and Bang.
"Where?", Bang puzzled.
"Whoa, now what?", Blanko puzzled before the Knicks scored and the crowd cheered as the woman looked at the Nerdlucks.
"Hey! Hey!", Nawt whispered.
"What, What?", Pound puzzled.
"She's looking again.", Nawt spoke
"Close it up. Close it up.", Pound urged, closing the coat.
"Tightly.", Blanko spoke before Bupkus exclaimed.
"You poked me again!", Bupkus groaned as the woman gets uncomfortable sitting next to them and turned to her husband.
"Sweetheart?", the woman fan spoke.
"What?", the male fan puzzled.
"I thought you were gonna get better seats this year.", the woman spoke.
"This is as good as I could get.", the man responded.
"This guy next to me is doing something very weird in his raincoat.", the woman complained.
"Honey, will you just let me watch the game? Barkley's killing us!", the man responded annoyedly.
"Hey, someone's killing someone.", Bang whispered.
"Nah. seriously?", Blanko spoke in wonder.
"Wow a killer. Let me see.", Pound spoke before Nawt noticed Charles Barkley and pointed at him.
"There, that's him the killer! He's big.", Nawt spoke.
"He's good.", Blanko smiled before Pound pushed him down and smiled evilly.
"He's mine!", Pound responded before closing the jacket.
"Okay, go get him.", Nawt encouraged.
"Yeah, watch out.", Pound agreed.
Then, just as the woman looked at them again, the coat lowered down, causing her to jump up from her seat, startled. After that, Pound then came out from under the coat and changed into pink ooze before going onto the court. As Charles Barkley walked up, Pound launched into Charles Barkley's nose and goes inside his body as the crowd gasped in shock. He twitched as Pound came out his body before he felt dizzy as he went back to his teammates.
"Come on, get back on defense. Come on. Get back on "D", man!", one of the Sun's players urged as he grabbed Barkley by the jersey.
Then, the Knicks' player Patrick Ewing scored, earning the crowd's cheer before the Sun's coach saw what was happening to Charles Barkley and stood up from his chair.
"What are you doing?", Paul asked as Charles Barkley was waving his hands, wanting the ball, but one of the players scored and missed.
"Time-out! Call a time-out!", Paul urged.
"What's wrong with you, man? You're killing us!", one of the Sun's player chastised.
Meanwhile, Pound went back to the coat before Bang, Bupkus, Blanko, and Nawt opened the coat for him, allowing him to go inside the basketball.
"Okay, let him in. Open up.", Nawt whispered.
"Open.", Blanko spoke.
"Wow! He did it!", Blanko spoke happily before Pound came out of the ball and smiled gleefully.
"I got it! I got his talent!", Pound spoke, pointing to Charles Barkley's talent inside the basketball.
"All right!", Bang grinned.
"Super.", Blanc agreed.
Meanwhile, at the court, Charles Barkley was upset about not playing anymore.
"Sit down, Chuck.", Paul suggested.
"Hey, man I'm fine! I am fine!", Charles shouted as he sat down and grabbed a towel.
"No, no, no, no. I'm playing you too many minutes.", Paul only responded.
"I'm not tired!", Charles only responded.
"Go get the doctor.", Paul only suggested to his assistant coach.
Back at the game, Patrick Ewing dunked the ball and scored. Then Bang comes as pink ooze and he approaches him. He launched into Patrick Ewing's nose and goes inside his body, he twitches around and Bang comes out of his body. His concerned teammates check on him.
"What's up man? You all right?", one of the Knick's players asked.
"Yeah.", Patrick assured.
"You sure?", the first player puzzled out of concern.
"Come on, we're okay, We're okay. You're all right. Come, let's go.", the second player urged.
Later, when the referee blowed the whistle and tossed the ball to Patrick, instead of Patrick catching it, the ball hits his chest instead. All of the players looked at Patrick confused.
"Come on, Patrick its showtime.", the referee urged before he tossed the ball again with Patrick trying to catch it again, only to miss again just the same, worrying the crowd as they looked on.
Then, Patrick got ready to shoot the ball into the hoop as he looked at it and then threw the ball a little too high and fell down before it went flying into the stands and hits the popcorn, spilling it everywhere.
