Nope.

OKAY! Aaaaand scene! That my friends was supposed to be a humorous opening that got completely out of hand. I was going to tell you all that today I am introducing a new character! She's really not all that new to me since I've had her bouncing around in my noggin for the past two years but you guys get to see a bit more about her so…YAY! Long beginning is almost over. Just wanted to say thank you for SO MANY fantastic reviews that were so helpful! You guys dragged me right out of my droopy mood and I actually got some really great advice that I started to use as well. I hope to see an improvement pretty soon. So thank you all and enjoy!
Operation Val Chapter 20
Val POV
So it was a normal, 20 trillion degree day in Burbank, California. The trio of monsters decided to take a day trip to visit some "special friends", which at that point I had already come to realize weren't friends at all but actually people that the Warners loved to harass. Good to know that I wasn't alone on their schedule of torture…
So after they had their therapy session (which did absolutely no good to them or the psychiatrist), they wanted to go see the celebrities that worked around the studio. And me, the little butter-up queen, followed like a puppy because I knew this would bring them to like me, thus making my somewhat formed plan become all the more reachable.
Wakko was talking to me and I realized that maybe I should look like I'm listening. He was listing all of these names of people I didn't know so I began to tune out again…that is until Dot yanked me down to her height and backhanded me…
Normal POV
"Hey sleeping not-so beauty!Are you even listening?!" Dot scowled as Val kicked her away and rubbed the sore spot on her head where Dot had yanked her hair.
"Yeah but I got bored. Why?" she dodged Yakko as he tried to put a sly arm around her.
"Well because my sweet, Wakko was just listing all the names of the celebrities we are going to introduce to you today. Dot's going to handle all those guy actors and Wakko and I will show you why we love California babes so much." He growled softly and Val gagged before turning to Dot who had gotten off the ground and was smirking.
"We won't be near the actresses for long. Yakko'll say something stupid and we'll get thrown out. Which is fine by me because I'm going to introduce you to all my favorites! Orlando Bloom, Taylor Lautner, And MAYBE…if we're really lucky, I might get to see my sweet Mel Gibson!" she swooned and Yakko and Wakko gagged in unison.
"Dot you do realize that he's really old and really unpopular now right? Robert Pattinson is more famous than him!"
Dot snarled at the smirking eldest Warner and was just about to beat him to a pulp when Val piped in.
"Uh…who are these people?"
She couldn't have asked a worse question. Within seconds all three Warners were smothering her. Dot was shrieking something about her brain being full of pink jelly, Yakko was listing off names at a dizzying pace, trying to find one she recognized, and Wakko was well….eating the candy bar he found in her pocket.
Wakko wasn't too hyped up about celebrities…not since his hero Don Knotts (bless his talented soul)…."went away to summer camp". Wakko almost sniffled at the thought, remembering how Yakko told him those exact words when he asked why the marvelous actor wasn't making any new movies.
I sure hope he comes back soon…
"Excuse me, could one of you four cuties tell me the closest way to studio 4B?"
Wakko's thoughts were interrupted but he definitely wasn't upset when he looked up. Standing a good two feet taller than him, making her shoot straight passed Yakko by a half foot, was a toon dog woman dressed in a sequin baby blue belly top and skinny jeans.
Her face was a cream white color, her fur dark brown, and her bright orange hair was whisked up into a high ponytail. It wasn't the ponytail that the Warners boys were interested in however…
"HELLOOOOOOOO SEXY MODEL NURSE!" Yakko and Wakko pounced on her, making the toon girl giggle, her blue eyes alight.
"Easy there sweet thangs, these clothes were expensive. Now if you'll excuse m-" she froze as her eyes caught Val's critiquing ones.
"V.A- I mean, VAL! I missed you sweetie! Oh it's been just too long!" she ran over and lifted the tiny dog-toon off the ground.
Val choked from the headlock and squirmed. "Yeah so long I don't even remember you! Now GET OFF!" she kicked and thrashed as the taller toon snickered.
"Now don't be a fuss budget. We have got to catch up." She dragged Val by her ankles as she clawed at the pavement, giving the Warners her best pleading look. Of course the Warners, being as helpful as they were, all seemed to be looking in different directions at the time.
Assholes… Val yipped in surprise as she was pinned to a wall behind a shaded studio wall. She looked up into the eyes of the toon, not seeing the resemblance as they stared at each other. Really, it was kind of hard to see. This toon was tall, Val was short. She had "prominent assets" *cough big boobs cough* and Val had the same figure as Dot except in larger scale. Yet if someone studied them, they'd see what looked like two sisters…weird.
The weird toon girl studied Val and her smile melted off, revealing an expressionless mask beneath.
"The Doctor sent orders."
Val blinked slowly. "Wait…what?" she gagged as the girl's hand tightened around her neck.
"Are you V.A.L?"
Val caught on from there. "I go by Val so…yeah. You work for my dad? Does he miss me?" Her eyes lit up instantly, almost like she hadn't left her cage at home, almost like nothing had changed. If the Warners had seen her in that moment, they would have seen something completely different from the angry orange headed pest lurking in their tower the past couple of weeks. They would have seen…a kid.
The childish spark was stamped away when Val was dropped to the ground. She looked up at the toon as she pulled out a portable screen. Val peered into it and her eyes lit up again as she saw Dr. Thorndill sitting in his old stiff backed chair, staring into the screen.
"Daddy HI! I'm almost done so I can home s-"
Val tilted her head as Dr. Thorndill began to speak, as if he didn't hear her. The girl peered over her shoulder.
"It is pre-recorded. He cannot hear you."
Val blushed softly and scowled. "I knew that." She sat down and listened as he continued to speak:
"Greetings V.A.L. When you get this message, it means you have met your new partner, the 2.0 version of you." His glass eye glinted.
"This is V.A.L 2, but I would like you to call her Jinx around the three targets. She has been designed specifically to match your abilities and double them. I know what you're thinking. Why would I create another you?" he snickered and covered it as a cough.
"Well because V.A.L, I don't think you can complete your mission…single-handedly. Unlike you, Jinx has been created with a lack of free will. She does what she's told." He emphasized the last line almost to make sure she knew she was bad. And she did. As he spoke, Val's ears sunk down until she had to brush them out of her eyes to see him on the screen as he continued:
"She will complete this task, with or without you. She can be your closest ally, or your worst nightmare. But know now V.A.L, that if you fight her, you will lose. She's perfect. Almost …'Mary Sue-ish' if you will. But just the same, she'll complete what you have failed to."
Val bit back tears as she looked down at her converse shamefully.
"-However,"
She looked up at that hopeful word, listening again.
"If you assist her in the capture of them, I will gladly accept all of your wrong doings and welcome you back with open arms." He smiled into the camera, his grin just a tad forced as the video ended and she stared into the her reflection on the screen, seeing Jinx's blank expression behind her.
Val smiled softly. "I'll do it dad. But I'll do even better…" Screw Jinx. I've been lazy up until now but no more. She is NOT better than me! I'm gonna kill those stupid Warners and she can just sit back and be lazy and a big stupid face!
Val looked up from the screen. Jinx took the video back and studied her. "He said we are to play two cousins until the mission is completed. Are you in agreement to this?" she held out an unmoving hand, waiting for Val to shake it in agreement.
The said toon did so reluctantly. "I guess…just know right now though, I don't care what dad said. I'm going to finish this job and you just need to stay out of my way." She turned to leave, only to find her hand unyielding from within Jinx's grip.
"You are to follow the designated orders V.A.L."
Val snorted. "Okay first, you have to call me Val around the three monsters. Now let me go before I-Y'OUCH!" she gasped as Jinx squeezed her hand until it literally crushed in a painful toon way.
She released. "Follow orders or I will have to remove you from the mission." She turned away and made her hips sway delicately as she made her way over to the Warners, Val following as she clutched her rumbled hand, hissing curse words.
Yakko and Wakko were instantly in her arms as Jinx giggled softly, her sweet face back to its previous innocent expression.
"I haven't introduced myself yet. I'm Jinx and this is my sweet baby cousin Val." She ruffled Val's hair with one hand as the smaller toon flexed her healing fingers.
"Yeah…whatever." She pulled away and crossed her arms, matching Dot's pose as she rolled her eyes.
"Never trust the nice girls…" she exchanged a look with Val who blinked in bewilderment.
You have no idea sister….
"Hey c'mon weren't you guys gonna show me some celebs? Let's go." Val walked ahead as Dot followed and Jinx took up the behind, holding the two Warner boys in her arms.
Jinx giggled. "Cuz slow down! I can't chase you and carry these two sexy men at the same time." She laughed as Wakko beamed and Yakko kissed her cheek.
"You think I'm sexy now doll face, just wait until you see my stamp collection…"
Yep I'm leaving it with a perverted Yakko joke. WHOOHOO! I've got the next chappie all planned out you guys so it should be up in the next day/ two days. Depends upon my mood and my rapidly changing schedule. Thank you again! Oh yeah, and just giving you guys a hint here in case you read up on my chars and haven't heard of Jinx before, that is NOT her real name. This is just her temporary code name for the fic. Her real name is well, a secret if you don't know about my characters. If you do I'm sure you can guess who Val's cousin is. *hint* Char listings and personalities are in my profile page;D
