A/N: Well as I said, this chapter is rated T because there is some violence in it, but don't worry, only as much that was in MI. I mean, Randall did try to kill Sulley, so it's about that amount I guess. Really, don't let the 'T' rating fool ya. If you've seen the movie, it's totally fine! Please enjoy! :D
Randall stared at him in shock. "W-waternoose?"
"That's right my boy! Oh dear, I can't believe Sullivan banished you to such a horrible place!" Watrnoose said in disgust as he observed the room.
"Yeah, haha…" Randall said uneasily. He prayed Waternoose wouldn't see Kimmie and that the commotion wouldn't wake her up. Maybe when she was sleeping, he could just go back with Waternoose and…no! Would he really just abandon Kimmie like that?
"Randall, my boy, you seem distracted." Waternoose's voice broke through his thoughts.
Randall shook his head. "Oh no, just thinking. How's the factory?" Randall quickly changed the subject.
"Well, they don't scare children anymore. Apparently now they make them laugh. The idiots think that laughter is stronger than screams!"
"Really?" Randall's eyes widened. Was that really possible?
"Oh and Sullivan is now CEO."
Randall bristled at Sulley's name and he curled his lip in disgust, feeling himself reverting to his old self. "Oh yeah? What about that little green freak?" he asked.
"I think he's…how do you call it, 'out on the field', as in he's become one of the monsters who make the children laugh."
"With his ugliness?"
"Perhaps." Waternoose chuckled. Suddenly he got all serious. "I bet, you want to go back to the monster world?"
Randall frowned, thinking about Kimmie. "Maybe."
"Good! I need you to help me fix the Scream Extractor. Then we can get back in business and redeem ourselves."
"But if they make children laugh now, why try and fix it?" Randall questioned.
"Did you not just hear what I said boy? They are all idiots! Of course screams are more powerful that laughs. We just need to prove it to them." Waternoose snapped.
"Or maybe you just need to accept the fact that you're wrong!" Randall said, instantly regretting it.
"What did you just say?" Waternoose snapped his head towards Randall abruptly. That was the thing about Waternoose, like Randall, he was very unpredictable. One minute, he could actually act civil and almost nice, but say the wrong thing and he will turn into a snarling beast.
"Did you just say I'm wrong?" Waternoose snarled, taking a threatening step towards Randall. Before Randall could answer, he heard a voice from behind him.
"Randy? Who are you talking to?" came Kimmie's voice. Randall felt his heart sink. Of course Waternoose would've found out!
"Who. Is. That?" Waternoose growled dangerously.
"Go back to sleep, Kimmie." Randall said helplessly.
Regardless of what he said, Kimmie got out of bed and peeked out from behind him. "Who's that? Is he one of your monster friends?" she asked.
Waternoose gasped when he saw her and turned all five eyes slowly back towards Randall. "You spoke in front of humans?" he spat.
"I-it was an accident!" Randall pleaded.
"And I came all this way, just to find out you've gone soft for a little human girl! Just like Sullivan!" Waternoose shouted.
Randall glared daggers at him. "I have not gone soft and don't compare me to Sullivan!" he snarled.
"Randy? What's going on?" Kimmie whimpered.
Waternoose looked back down at her and his eye gleamed hungrily. "Hello sweetie, would you like to see this monster world Randall's been telling you all about?" he purred, his mouth stretching into an evil grin.
Randall realized what he was about to do. "Kimmie, run!" he yelled as he turned and punched Waternoose in the face.
Kimmie shrieked as Waternoose snarled and grabbed at her.
Randall darted behind Waternoose and grabbed him in a headlock.
"Let go this instant you traitor!" Waternoose bucked and thrashed about.
A final thrash unlodged Randall and he went sailing into the wall. Randall struggled up and ran in front of Waternoose as he tried to go after Kimmie again. "I won't let you kidnap her!"
Waternoose chuckled. "That's cute. You won't let me." He sneered.
Randall braced himself as Waternoose started pushing, his feet sliding slowly down the rug and he felt himself loosing his grip. "Alright Randall, I'll give you one last chance to join me. What do you say?"
Randall stared at him before answering. "You know, a couple of weeks ago, I would've jumped at that opportunity. But while I was here, I let go of the past and you need to do the same."
"I take that as a no."
Randall gathered a mouthful of spit and spat it in Waternoose's face. Waternoose roared, let got of Randall and reached up to wipe his eyes. He glared at Randall furiously. "You just made yourself an enemy. Now out of the way lizard boy!" and with that, threw Randall into the wall next to them with all his might. Randall slumped to the ground, barely conscious.
"Goodnight Randall, you're of no use to me anymore." Waternoose whispered snidely as he bent down and grinned evilly in Randall's face.
The last thing Randall saw was Waternoose walking away, chuckling, and then everything went black.
A/N: Uh oh! Another cliffhanger! Harhar, I'm evil! :D You'll just have to wait until Friday to see what happens! Sorry if it's bit shorter than usual, I've been pretty busy this week and haven't had much time to write!
