Holley and the Phantom: Chapter 7: Old Partners and Strange Lovers

"Leland Turbo…" I said. "Wasn't he your old partner before me?"

"Yes, he contacted me about the lemon's WGP plan, but he was captured and then… then… he was c…c…compacted into a cube." Finn choked.

"I don't believe it, he's alive, but he can't be he just CAN'T BE!"

"Wait, what's that blue thing under him?" McQueen said.

"Hey, it's that blue chip that was controlling me!" Mater said.

I pulled it off of Leland and his eyes reverted from red to their normal color.

"Finn, Finn Mcmissile is that you?!" Leland said.

"Yes Leland, it is me, long time no see!" Finn tearfully said.

They both hugged and tearfully exchanged news.

"So, who are your friends?"

"Well, it's a very long story." And Finn told Leland about our adventure during the WGP.

"Well, that's quite an amazing story; I'm quite honored to see you all."

Mater blushed.

"Okay, so now we've gotten out introductions out of the way, we still have to find who's behind all of this."

"Well all I know about the car is that it's German."

"Wait, Professor Zundapp is German, do you think he could be behind this?" McQueen said.

"I don't think so, according to my computer he's still in jail." I said.

Suddenly it came to me. The German car, the revenge plot, it came together.

"I think I know who it is! Now I have a plan."

. . .

We were ready in the room with the vines. Then we heard Leland talking with the car. It was small but it had a large mask and disguise over it. Then we heard a yell.

Just as we planned McQueen attracted them and led them into the room. Just as he did I shouted "Now!" Leland got out of the way and vines wrapped around the German car.

We gathered around the car, which was snarling and struggling to get free.

"Well, now you know how it feels, Mrs. Zundapp." I said, and I ripped off the mask to reveal a female Zundapp car.

"WHAT?!" everyone else said.

"That's right." Mrs. Zundapp said. "I was the one who did all of this. I wanted revenge for what you did to my poor husband!"

"We met in Oktoberfest of 1972, oh he was so handsome back then, and he knew how I felt to be a lemon. We were so happy together; we frolicked in the fields as we kissed each other. Then in 2005 we were finally married (we were a slow couple) and lived for many years in happiness… until YOU came along! After my poor husband was arrested without any hope of bail, I was devastated and vowed revenge. I knew how much you loved your Holley, Mr. Mater, and I wanted to make you suffer the same loneliness I felt, so I made a call out for Finn and Holley, kidnapped her and put her in this place. I built it for me to be closer to my husband, then I constructed it to be a prison for you, Miss Shiftwell (both Zundapp and me were very good weapon designers and scientists). I found the cube of Leland and decided to put him back together and make him my alibi just in case the police found out, I also designed these mind controlling chips that can affect any living organism. And if it weren't for you, my revenge would've been complete! But I want to know how you were able to control my plants?"

"Simple" I said. "I used my computer to reverse the effects of the chips and the plants only obey me now."

"There's no use running away Mrs. Zundapp, we already called the Coast Guard and they're on their way, along with the police." Finn said.

Mrs. Zundapp groaned while I just smirked. Soon everything would be normal again.
