Chapter 11: The double interrogation
In another part of Acme City, Bugs Bunny just landed at the roof of an abandon building. The roof had an entrance and he was walking to it. While he was walking, he was still rubbing his cheek after the hit he got from the fight.
"Dang, dat girl knows how ta give a punch."
Bugs knocked at the entrance and then noticed a set of fast running footstep coming closer. Behind him. He turned around and saw a figure trying to punch him in the face. Bugs grabbed the incoming fist, tackled the figure and throwing him on the grown.
"Nice to see ya to. Daffy." Bugs joked
"Oh, it's you. What took you so long?" The figure named Daffy asked.
Bugs help the figure back on his feet. The figure was a black duck with an orange beak and sapphireblue eyes. He was wearing an armored suit almost identical to bugs. The only difference was that his was black and darkgreen instead of black and darkblue.
"Just a little exercising." Bugs answered.
"The brutal kind of way it seem." Daffy said, noticing a mark from a fist at Bugs cheek. "Did she go easy on you?"
"Shat up."
Bugs and Daffy stated walking to the entrance.
"So, have they said something yet?" Bugs asked Daffy, while they were walking down the stairs at the entrance.
"We haven't interrogated them yet."
"You were waiting for me? How kind."
When Bugs and Daffy entered the room at the highest floor of the building. In the center of the room was Smith and Canasta sitting on the floor, bound together and still unconscious. At the corner of the room, there was a cat leaning back at the wall, sharping one of these dagger-like objects with his claws.
The cat was black with white fur and a big red nose. He had emaraldgreen eyes. Like Bugs and Daffy, he also
had one of these armored suits. But his suits colors was black and darkpurple.
"Well, well. Look who finally decided to Show up." The cat said as he looked at Bugs and stopped sharping.
"What's up Sylvester?"
"Oh nothing Special. But it Seems you had some fun." The cat named Sylvester said, noticing the mark on Bugs chest. "You got her number?"
"Shat up."
"All right. Enough chit chatting." Daffy began. "Bugs. I just speak with Porky. He said the boss wants result soon or he'll send another team in. If we want to keep our post, and our reputation as the best squad in the agency, we should go to act know."
"All right then" Bugs said. "Let's do some interrogation."
"Way ahead of you" Sylvester said. Pointing at to doors besides each other. Both doors had a small room with a chair, surrounded with lambs aimed at it.
"Oooh this should be good." Daffy said. Brushing his hands with a devilish smile.
Some minutes later, Canasta was bounded to the chair in one room, while Smith was bounded to the chair in the other room.
"I'll take Smith." Sylvester said.
"And I'll take Canasta." Daffy said.
"Great, let's get started." Bugs said.
Inside Canastas room
Canasta woke up in a chair with a bad headache; he looked around but couldn't see much because it was too dark. Them he tried to out his hand on his head to ease the pain but he couldn't. He tried to get up from the chair but he couldn't do that either. It was there he found out that he was bound to the chair. When he came more to conscience he couldn't fell so many
"Where am I? What's going on?" Smith said, trying to get free but the ropes where strong. Them he could have sworn that he heard footsteps behind him. He wasn't alone in the room.
"Who's there?" He said, hearing the footsteps getting closer. Then he heard a voice:
"You're awake, good." It said.
Then the light turned on. Canasta tried to look around in the room but all the lamps in the room where pointed at him and the light was to sharp too he could get a clear view. He could hear the voice again.
"So. You're Nasty Canasta. I've heard a lot about you and your partner. I gotta admit, for a man with your reputation. I never expecting you to be such a chicken. When Smith was down. Getting you was quite easy."
Canasta began to remember what happened. The little assault at the casino. The attackers who took down three of their goons and his partner on less than a minute. He had ever seen anything like this. And the reason he ran was because he knew he had no chance compare to that.
He realized that whoever is in the room with him must be one of the attackers.
"What do you want from me?" Canasta then asked. He could fell hand lying on his shoulder.
"Just a little conversation." The voice answered. "And Intel about your boss."
Then Canasta understood that he really was in the middle of an interrogation. However, he did not yet realize that at the corner of the room there was a camera that was recording it all and sending it to a computer on a table outside the room. The computer was used by Bugs who was seeing what was happening in the rooms. He also had radio contact to his comrades so he could tell one of them if the other one got Intel from the interrogated mob. Bugs looked at the screen that showed on the left side what happened in Canasta room and on the right side what happened in Smith room. Smith was awake as well. Bugs could hear both his comrades had asked Smith and Canasta about their boss.
Inside Smiths room
"What do you want from my boss? Did Rocky send you?" Smith said to his unknown interrogator, trying to keep his voice frightening. But he was actually the one who was frightened. He could hear the interrogator make a quiet scary laugh.
"You must really think low about me if you think that I'm some mob or mercenary." The interrogator said.
Those words made Smith more scared but also wondering.
"Then what are you?" He asked. Then he could fell four fingertips sliding his neck. The fingertips where very sharp. It seems whoever or whatever his interrogator was, he had claws.
"You could call me: Your worst nightmare." The voice behind him said.
Inside Canastas room
"Your boss is getting huge surplice of weapons and not many seems to know where they come from." The voice began. "Your fellow gang members who I also had a little conversation with have not been very useful. Until lately. I have been told that if anyone can tell me who Yosemite Sam's dealer is. It would be his second in commands."
"So that's what this is about." Canasta then said.
Inside Smiths room
"What makes you think that I will tell you who the seller is?" Smith asked.
Inside both Smith and Canastas room
"Oh I think you will discover that I can be very… persuasive?" Both Daffy and Sylvester said. Stepping out of the shadows with an evil look on their faces. Both Smith and Canasta looked at the interrogators in fears as their shadows came over them.
Some minutes later… Inside Smiths room
"All right all right. I'll talk." Smith said terrified. "Don't know who the buyer is. No one in the gang knows. Only the boss. But listen. I can tell you where to find him. I know where his secret quarter is."
Inside Canastas room
Things weren't going as well in there.
"Please. Sam would kill me if I told you." The also terrified Canasta said.
Daffy looked at him, losing patience.
"You should be more afraid of what I'll do you." He then said.
Outside both interrogation rooms, Bugs could see at the computer screen that Daffy needed some help. Then he got an idea. He put his communicator to Daffy's frequency.
"Daffy, I got an idea. Be ready to threaten Canasta. But wait to da signal. You'll know it when ya hear it."
Then Bugs turned to Sylvester's frequency.
"Sylvester. Daffy need some extra help with Canasta. Make Smith scream, and make sure dat Canasta can hear it."
Then Sylvester turns his attention to Smith.
"Y'know what Smith. I'm not convinced." Sylvester said. That made Smith more terrified.
"What… No. I mean it. I don't know more." Smith started to say. But Sylvester started showing his claws.
"I'm sure. You still have marks from our last encounter. Tell me: Does it hurt if I press… here." Sylvester said. Pressing a claw against one of Smith marks.
Canasta could hear scream from the wall.
"What… What was that?" He asked.
"It sounded like my friend doing some exercising with you partner." Daffy answered with another devilish smile. Realizing that this was the signal. "But you should know. They aren't as experienced… as I am."
Now Smith was as terrified as he could be. He did now longer care about his boss. He just wanted get away from these people.
"Okay." He said. "Listen. I don't know anything about the weapon deals, but my boss does and I can tell you where to find him."
Bugs saw this on the screen and chanced his communicator back to Sylvester's frequency.
"All right ya can stop now."
Then Sylvester stopped his little torturing.
"They both say da same thing. Therefore, it must be true. Finish da interrogation." Bugs said to both Daffy and Sylvester.
"All right. I believe you. Now. Tell me where to find your boss." Daffy and Sylvester said in unison to the mobs.
A couple of minutes later, they walked out the rooms, leaving Smith and Canasta unconscious. They looked at Bugs with a satisfied smile.
"We got him now."
