I am utterly exhausted from my constant running around today! So here I am, in front of my mini pink laptop, ready to present to you Chapter 3. I own the Rodgers siblings and Marie. Nada belongs entirely to MonstarzGirl. On with the show! Phew!


It was like deja vu all over again as we all were flying down the hole. Hale, Nada and I were the only ones screaming our mouths out while Marie was in a fit of giggles and laughter.

'Is Marie the only one who's actually enjoying this?'

All of a sudden, we made a harsh turn inside the hole and kept flying at an extremely high velocity.

Nada began to panic like no tomorrow. "Ahh! Someone please STOP THIS THING!" I could have sworn she had tears nearly flowing our of her eyes like jet streams.

Marie kept giggling at the high speed we were going through. Clearly this toddler stole her mother's wild side at the very moment she came into this world!

Hale and I were the only ones who had the same idea as to where we were going, despite that we too, were screaming our voices dry.

"Kari! Look up ahead!" He hollered.

I glanced up and saw the familiar Warner Brothers logo right in front of us. I screwed my eyes shut as I waited for the impact. "NO WAY!"

"NOT AGAIN!" cried Hale as he braced himself. I felt him cringing closer towards me as we clung onto Marie.

"WE'RE GONNA DIE!" Nada screamed, now close to losing it. She clung close to us as we made contact with the giant logo.

"WARNA BROTHA!" squealed Marie with delight as we finally went through the logo in a suction like movement.

'.. You said it, Marie!'

We all found ourselves being pulled into a bright blue sky with lingering clouds among us. Looking at one another, Hale and I immediately shared the same reaction as we saw ourselves now aiming down towards the solid ground below us.

"Kari, hold on tight to Marie!" Hale bellowed, knowing the landing wasn't going to be easy or a pleasant one.

"Hang on tight to me, Marie!" I gripped the tiny tot close to my body as we prepared for impact. Nada's eyes grew in panic.

"We're gonna hit the ground! It was nice knowing you guys!" She shut her eyes, our bodies going rigid. Then I heard a loud whirring sound, like something coming this way. I felt and heard it whiz by us; it was something sharp and silver.

The next thing I knew, the rope was severed and we were sent flying in different directions. I held on to Marie, shielding her body with mine as I fell into a tick pile of leaves.

Opening my eyes and looking down at our soft landing, a sigh of relief escaped my lips. Marie giggled and cooed, crying "Agin, Agin!"

I heard a loud splash and looked over to see Nada land into a large body of water, supposedly the lake of Looney Tune Land.

Hale landed adjacent from us and got caught in between two tree branches. Luckily, he wasn't hurt.

Hale grabbed one of the branches and pushed himself up then swung down and off from the lowest branch safely. "Kari! Are you and Marie okay?" He ran up to us and offered me his hand. I gladly took it and slid down the pile of leaves with Marie safely tucked in one arm.

"Hey! Wha-what about- ack- me?" We turned our sight over to Nada as she wadded out of the Lake, drenched from head to toe.

"Are you okay, Nada? You're not hurt, are you?" I went over to her to check for any injuries. Thankfully there were none.

"I'm fine. Just soaked." She grimaced as she squeezed some water out of her shirt. Her ponytail was clinging against her skin, some strands of hair clinging on to her face as well.

"Well, what do ya know? I guess it worked!" A loud, western voice boasted from behind us. We all turned our heads to see none other than Yosemite Sam, Foghorn Leghorn, and Wile Coyote looking down at us from the small hill near the lake.

"Golly! It's them! You did it, I say, you did it Sam!" Foghorn slapped Yosemite hard across the back in glee.

Wile was smiling a large smile at us, obviously happy to see me and Hale again. The three Tunes made their way down the hill, in a hurry to greet us.

We all gave bewildered looks at them, with Hale and I mainly fighting our inner selves for a reaction that would be appropriate: happiness, sadness, or both.

'Dammit! Both, I say!'

Knocking myself out of my stupor, I gave Marie over to Nada as I rushed to greet our friends. Hale seemed to have snapped into his senses and rushed over as well.

"Oh my goodness! I can't believe it! We're back!" I cried in sheer happiness. "Hale, it's them!"

Hale nodded his head feverently, unable to believe it either. We hugged the three Tunes with tears of joy. Yosemite gave me and Hale the biggest hugs he could muster, and Foghorn and Wile hugged each of us separately.

Nada stood there in complete shock and awe. "Those.. those are.. It can't be.. no way.." Marie fussed as she wailed, pointing at Wile. "Doggy!"

Hale and I looked at Wile with surprise. "So that's who she saw!" Hale looked at me with realization. I nodded in correspondence. Wile looked at the small fussing girl nervously.

I shook my head and let out a laugh. "Relax, Wile. Marie won't hurt you. She just thought you were a stray dog." Nada looked over at us, then the Tunes, then down to Marie in her arms.

"Oh, I forgot. This is our friend, Nada Sampson. Just call her Nada. The little girl in her arms is our two year old cousin, Marie." Hale said with a slight chuckle. The three Tunes waved at her and the tot in friendly greeting.

Nada waved back shyly, a small flush of embarrassment rising up to her cheeks. "Hi."

Yosemite walked up to me and my brother. "You two sure have grown over these past six years. Speaking of which, why didn't y'all come and bother to visit us?" He gave us a disappointing and hurtful look.

Hale frowned slightly. "We tried to! Kari and I looked everywhere for an entrance back here, but we found none. We tried the mini golf course many times since that was where you caught us last time."

I nodded in agreement. "It's true. We thought you guys forgot about us after some time.."

The three of them gave us shocked looks. "Forget about ya? Hon, we thought you forgot about us! We waited for days, weeks, months, and nothin' from the both of y'all! We missed you two kids terribly!" Foghorn cried with exasperation and sadness.

Now it was our turn to look shocked and hurt. "We're sorry. But we didn't forget about you. We couldn't! You guys are our friends and we missed you too." I gave them a sad smile. Wile shook his head, pulling up a sign saying 'it's not your fault.'

Yosemite nodded. "Wile's right. You kids didn't know how to get back here, and we should have known better about that. Bugs was right about fetching you guys earlier.."

"Wait! Bugs is here too?" I gave them a wild look.

"Where is he?" Hale looked around in all directions frantically. Wile grinned in amusement at our childish reactions. Yosemite chuckled. "Whoa there, partners! He left to get some friends of yours; ones we know that miss you two more than anyone here in Looney Tune Land."

I felt my heart skip a few beats and heat rising to my cheeks, knowing exactly who he's referring to.

'The Monstars... and that means Nawt!'

"Well, then what are we waiting for?" Nada said from behind us, already reading off the look of excitement and happiness off our faces.

"Hold up! I have an idea." Hale grinned with a cleverly raised brow, the wheels in his head turning like crazy.

"What, I say, what do you have in mind, son?" Foghorn asked, interested in Hale's sudden remark. Wile raised an interested brow and Yosemite gave him all his attention, as well as Nada and I.

My brother gave a devious smirk. "Why don't two of you take us to the gym while the other guy goes and gathers the rest of the gang, Monstars and Tunes, and bring 'em over? That would be a surprise for everyone, wouldn't you say?"

Yosemite smiled. "Sounds like a great idea there, Hale. Actually, even better! Why don't we take you guys over to the outside stage?"

I gave a curious look at Sam. "The outside stage?" Wile face-palmed at Yosemite's lack for better vocabulary.

Foghorn shook his head. "He means the amphitheater, hon. We know you two perform well in terms of music, so why not fix up a tune and play it while we gather everyone over? It'll bring a big enough ruse for everyone to hear and come see. Sounds reasonable?"

Hale and I could crush Foghorn in a bear hug right now, which we did. "I take that as a yes?" He choked out.

Yosemite grinned with satisfaction. "All right, then it's settled. I'll go and fetch them mangy varmints, while Wile and Leghorn here take y'all to the stage. Better prep yourselves real good now, ya hear? Don't wanna get anyone's hopes up for nothin'!"

We nodded in understanding, our excitement hardly contained. Satisfied with our answer, Sam turned around and started making his way towards Looney Tune Town to gather everyone up.

With Wile leading the way, we started making our own journey toward the amphitheater. Foghorn passed a towel over to Nada so she could dry herself off while we were on our way. Hale took Marie into his arms and sat her up on his shoulders, giving her the high view of the entire area. She clapped and giggled with glee, enjoying every minute of being here.

'I know exactly how you feel, Marie. I'm super happy to be here too, and so is Hale without a doubt.'

A thought occurred to me and I decided to ask Foghorn about it. "Hey, Foghorn?" He looked up at me. "What is it, hon?"

I gave him a curious glance. "What exactly cut through Yosemite's rope when he caught us?" He raised both his brows at this news. "What? Something cut through the rope when he rounded y'all up? Hmm. That's strange. I can't say, hon. Did you see what it was that cut it?"

I shook my head in slight defeat. "No. It went by too quickly. But I wanted to know if you knew what it was, by any chance."

He shook his head, looking upset for being unable to help. "Sorry, hon. I didn't see it. Maybe you can ask Yosemite when we see him again with the rest of the town. He might be of more help than I am."

I gave a slight nod, still unable to shake the ominous feeling that I got when that blade cut through Sam's lasso. For some reason, I think that weapon wasn't aiming for the rope at all...

Scolding myself for thinking such horrible thoughts, I pushed the memory of that moment out of my mind, now focusing on what to perform for a number alongside Hale for the Tunes.
