Hi again! I'm back for more and I hope you're as excited as me.
Nope.
Val, no one asked you. Besides, this story is about you. Aren't you happy?
No. You're making me look like a loser!
Oh shut up. This thank you goes to KaylaMicael, , A Scribbler, frumouttamimind, weirdsib, and shannon23. Thank you! I love the comments in the reviews. You guys make me laugh! (But in a good way of course)
Operation Val Chapter 16
Dear Diary,
I have this all planned out now. It's taken longer than I wanted it to of course, but I'm determined. I'm going to get each of them away from the others and get on their good side, start getting them to trust me more. It's obvious they don't trust me at ALL yet but I haven't exactly been trying. It's hard not wanting to compete with them because they make everything seem like a game and I just wanna WIN dangit! I guess I have a bit of a competitive side hehe. Anyways, I'm gonna start with the middle Warner because he seems to be the one that I talk with less and therefore who hates me less. Once I get them all into my friendzone, I'll lure them down to dad's house and he can take it from there. Simple right? I can't wait!
Sincerely yours,
Val
Val looked over her diary entry and made a face at how mean it sounded. It really shouldn't sound so evil. After all, she was doing a deed. Those freaks were heartless, ruthless creeps! She knew that under their goofy grins and playful attitudes, they were the same demons that wrecked her room and tried to kill her dad. They had to be stopped.
…
Wakko was watching Don Knotts reruns and drinking a gallon of chocolate milk when he was asked by Val to go for a second tour of the studio. He couldn't really tell why she had wanted to anyways.
Maybe she just thinks I'm hot. I mean, I DO look a lot like Yakko and she obviously likes him. Wakko grinned at the thought, his tail wagging as he looked up at Val as they made their way down the tower rail. Val nodded to him, smiling.
"So, what do you like doing for fun? "
Wakko paused, thinking. "Usually we just like visiting our special friends. I like eating stuff too."
"So I noticed." Val laughed. "So there's nothing else you like doing?" she was trying to find something they could do together, something that could make him see her more as a trustworthy friend than as a simple roommate.
Wakko however, took it as something completely different. She's sooo hitting on me right now! I always knew I was a lady magnet. He looked up at Val, smirking slyly. Val blinked as they left the studio before facing forward again.
I'm a little scared of what's going through his twisted mind right now. Just….smile and nod Val. Smile and nod…
She turned to him and gave him an awkward grin, making Wakko beam.
I nailed it! YES! He hopped around her before looking around. "Hey where are we?" he blinked at the unfamiliar surroundings.
Val looked around and shrugged. "No clue. Burbank's a pretty big place. I guess we can just walk back the way we came…" she turned around and saw they had wandered around at least 5 corners while they talked.
"Crap."
…
Yakko whistled as he pulled the pizza from the oven with his tail, his hands busy trying to beat his old paddleball record. As he turned off the oven, the smell of melted cheese filled the tower. He grinned.
"Alright Wakko you can have the first-" he turned around, not seeing the Warner that usually greeted him whenever food was involved. "….slice."
Dot ran in, out of breath. "Wakko no way are you getting it all to yourself this time! I want some!"
Yakko smirked. "No need to waste your breath sister sib, you're first today."
Dot blinked, looking around the empty kitchen. "Where's Wakko? He has NEVER missed a lunch in his life!" she walked out and knocked on Wakko's door before throwing it open, a clothespin stuck firmly on her nose as she prepared herself for the stench.
"Wakko?! You wanna fight me for the pizza or not?!" She paused, looking around the trash pile of a room.
"Where IS he?!" she growled under her breath. She closed the door. Maybe I should ask the monster if she's seen him. I don't trust her alone in my room anyways.
Dot walked into her room and paused when she saw the top bunk empty and the rest of the room quiet.
"What the heck is going on?!" she walked out and into the kitchen. "Yakko, I think everyone went to a party or something and we didn't get invited." She pouted.
Yakko blinked and laughed. "Well if that were the case we'd have to crash it wouldn't we? What do you mean?"
"Well, Wakko's gone and the monster's gone too!"
Yakko hesitated. "They're both gone? Do you think they went somewhere?" He turned to Dot who had a very upset frown on her face.
"Why wouldn't they invite us?!"
Yakko frowned, his older brother senses kicking in. "I….don't know. But I'm gonna go look for them." He walked out of the kitchen, stuffing his paddleballs back into his pockets, and taking off his 'Kiss the Cook' apron before turning to Dot.
"I don't trust that girl and I don't like the thought of her taking him somewhere alone. You coming?"
"Oh yes." She pulled out her mallet. "I'm definitely coming along."
…
This is a DISASTER! I take the kid for a simple walk to make friends with him and we end up lost in the heart of Burbank. Is it really THIS hard to make friends with people?!
"Okay so we took a left at this street sign." Val pointed in the direction she was pretty sure they came from. Wakko shook his head, pointing in the opposite direction.
"It was this way. I remember 'cause of the old lady sitting on that bench gave me a piece of bread to eat." He toon-zoomed over to the elderly citizen, grinning as his tail wagged.
"Hi!"
The old woman squinted from through her milk bottle glasses. "Well hi there cute little puppy. It's nice to see you again." She rubbed his ears and he smiled, his tongue sticking out.
"Thank you miss nice lady! Can I have some more bread?"
She laughed and gave him a piece before sending him and Val on their way. Val watched him with odd fascination.
"How did you remember her from all the other people?!" She gestured to the thick crowds of bustling city folks. Wakko blinked and shrugged.
"I just remember people easy."
As they walked however, Val came to realize how much of an understatement that was. Not only did he remember everyone, he KNEW them, as if they were all good friends of his. Val watched him shake hands, give hugs and kisses, laugh and dance with people that didn't seem all that happy to see him. But he knew them all; every last person on the streets of Burbank was a friend in his eyes, even if he wasn't in theirs.
But he's evil. That must be why they're so unhappy to see him. They know how evil he is. But…..why does he act so nice?
Val was jolted from her thoughts when she saw Wakko wander too close to the edge of the sidewalk and toward the very busy traffic in the road…
…
If that chick touched a hair on his head she's gonna become one of the biggest 'special friends' I've ever had… Yakko marched down the street, rolling up imaginary sleeves as he let his brother radar lead him to Wakko.
Just as he turned a corner, he spotted them. He saw Val first, her bright orange toon hair making her easily visible. Her mouth was slightly agape and her face was gray in terror as she reached out. That was when Yakko spotted Wakko, tripping off the sidewalk and falling onto the road, an easy speed bump for the oncoming red Ferrari that was never going to slow down. No of course not, why WOULD the guy slow down for a toon? Toons were fine. But that was his brother, HIS BROTHER, and he was going to be squished like a bug….
"WAKKO!" he sprinted toward his baby brother, hearing Dot call out behind him.
…
Wow head rush. Wait, why are people screaming? Wakko looked up, still sprawled on the pavement, and saw the red car, flying towards him. He closed his eyes, not having time to think of grabbing his gag bag. Suddenly, the sound of crushing metal roared in his ears and then….silence.
Wait….am I knocked out? Last time I got knocked out was when I fell from that 40 story building in 1949….and that was waaaaay worse than this. He risked opening an eye and saw bright orange in front of him.
Huh?
…
Val pried her hands off the front hood of the car, leaving the metal crushed and dented into the shape of her hands from where she had stopped the car dead. The driver jumped out, gaping at the damage.
"MY CAR! You ruined my car!"
Val turned to him, her hair aflame in rage and her teeth clenched tightly. "EXCUSE ME?! YOU ALMOST HIT. A. KID! And you're sorry about your DAMN CAR?!" she marched around to the driver's door, ripped off the side mirror, and smashed it through the windshield.
"Next time maybe you should stop texting all your little boyfriends and pay attention to the ROAD you greasy slob." Val shoved past the guy as he shouted at her, threatening at lawsuits and lawyers.
She looked for Wakko and saw him, with Yakko and Dot on the safety of the sidewalk. All three Warners were gaping at her and she blinked before realizing her hair was still on fire.
"Oops…" her hair went out and she blinked, looking around. "Um….sorry. I kinda get angry when people try to make kids into road kill…."
Wakko grinned instantly, jumping out of Yakko's arms. "FABOO!"
Yakko paused then his own stunned face broke into a happy grin. "You….wow." he laughed.
"I know where to go if we ever need to light our fireplace." He beamed and looked at Dot as she gave Val a careful look before marching back toward the studio.
Val looked at her then at the two Warner boys. "Thank you….for not freaking out." She grinned.
"Are you kiddin'? You saved me! I mean, I probably wouldn't have gotten more than a head bump for a couple minutes but that was real cool." He gave Val a big toon kiss on the cheek before hopping on home, the other two following.
Val blinked, stunned. Why did I do that?! She wracked her brain for an answer and finally came upon one safe enough to accept. My subconscious knew this was the only way to get them to trust me. I finally got that first step! Even when I'm not thinking, I'm truly a genius. She grinned.
AAAAAAnd t-th-th-th that's all folks. Thank you for reading and I hope you review! Until next time my pretties!
