Chapter Forty: Welcome to Montropolis the City of Monsters
"Uh..." Jason said upon entering a new world as he saw he had blue fur now covering his body with purple spots as he saw he was now a monster with spiky black hair on the top of his head and had his armor on his arm, (picture a smaller version of Sulley but with a red X over his chest with the gold embalm on it and the armored arm on his left hand.)
"What the heck?!" Max said seeing he had a spiked turtle shell on his back, (picture him looking like Bowser Jr. with a spiked yellow shell a green under belly and black claws feet and black clawed arms his normal looking face.)
"Were...monster? Oh this must be an all monster world" Jason said as he looked up to see a sign to a large factory.
"Monsters, Incorporated?" Max said.
"Uh Max?" Jason said pointing to several monster looking Unversed go into the factory.
"More? Come on" Max said as they headed into the factory.
Inside they saw a large room with a map hanging on the wall and a one eye receptionist answer the phone with snakes as her hair.
"Employees of the month" Jason said seeing the wall with a picture of a large blue monster and can see a little green monster barely making it into each picture.
"Hmmm this way to the 'Scare Floors' I bet the Unversed headed this way" Max said as they headed down the hall as they saw Mike and Sulley enter the room and start greeting all the other employees as Jason and Max headed to the scare floor as they found themselves in the locker rooms.
"She is the one, I am telling you she is the one" they heard Mike said.
"Well I'm happy for ya" Sulley said.
"Oh and thank you for hooking me up with those reservations" Mike said putting in a large contact lens on his eye.
"No problem they're under the name Googley Bear" Sulley said.
"Oh good ide...you know that wasn't very funny" Mike said as his locker closed as he reopened it and it closed again, "what the?" he said as a set of eyes appeared as a purple lizard monster appeared next to Mike.
"Wazowski!" Randle yelled scaring Mike.
"WHAA!" Mike yelled falling over the bench.
"Ha ha ha, what do you know it scares little kids and little monsters" Randle said.
"I wasn't scared! I've eh allergies" Mike said as he coughed a few times.
"Scare kids? Why would they need to do that?" Jason whispered to Max who shrugged his shoulders.
"Uh huh yeah sure" Randle said.
"Hey Randle save it for the Scare Floor will ya?" Sulley said.
"I am in the zone today Sullivan I am going to be doing some serious scaring, putting up some bug numbers" Randle said.
"Wow Randle that's great, that will make it more humiliating when we break the record first!" Mike said as Radnele slithered over.
"Shhh shhh shhh shhh! Do you hear that? It's the winds of change" he smirked as he walked off.
"Do you hear that? It's the winds of blah blah blah! What a creep! One of these days I am really gonna let you teach that guy a lesson" Mike said.
"Let's go" Max said as he and Jason headed out to the Scare Floor as they saw a commercial come on and when it ended Jason and Max questions were answered.
"I see, children screams power their world, and by 'Scare Record' they mean who can scare the kid the best" Jason said.
"All scare floors are not active, assistants please report to your stations" a woman on an intercom said as Jason and Max quickly put on hard hats and walked to the scare floors to see the assistants loading yellow cans onto panels then scan a card on a panel as they saw a door come in from a panel on the roof.
"Doors?" Jason said seeing more doors come in and lock into place next to panel and the yellow canisters.
"Okay people Eastern Seaboard coming on line we got scarers coming out!" a red monster yelled as Max and Jason saw the windows get closed leaving the room dark as the assistants stood by their doors.
"Here they come" Jason said seeing the Scarers walk into the room.
"Oh they're so awesome!" a nerd monster said.
Each Scarer than stood by a desk and turned to face their doors as their assistants help get the Scarers ready.
Jason and Max then saw the map screen change and showed as score chart at they saw Sulley had the score of 99,479 and Randle in second with 99,351.
"Wow that is an impressive score" Jason said.
"Yep" Max said.
"Hey may the best monster win" Sulley said to Randle and held out his hand.
"I plan to" Randle said looking to his door.
"Well that was rude" Max said as they heard a bell go off.
"We are on in 7-6-5!" the red monster counted down as the assistants hit buttons on the panels and red lights came on above the doors, "4-3-2-1!" he said as a horn went off as Max and Jason saw each of the monsters go into the doors as the door closed behind them.
"Whoa!" Jason said looking behind the doors, "these doors lead into closets by the looks of it in different worlds."
"How is that even possible?" Max asked.
"Hmmm well wherever these doors came from it must be rigged with a magic or something" Jason said.
They then began to hear screams as the red bars on the cans began to fill as the doors were sent back and new cans placed on as Jason and Max watched the monsters at work.
"Check it out" Max said seeing a spider monster enter the room as Jason eyes narrowed.
'That man heart...something not right about him' Jason thought.
"Well Jerry what's the damage so far?" Mr. Waternoose asked the red monster.
"We may actually make our quarter today sir" Jerry said.
"Hmmm first time in a month" Mr. Waternoose said as Jason and Max saw a blue monster come running out of a red door panting as he began to sob.
"What happened?" his assistant asked.
"The kid almost touched me! She got this close to me!"
"She wasn't scared of you? She was only six!"
"I could have been dead! I could have died!" he yelled as his assistant slapped him.
"Keep it together man! Hey we got a dead door over here!"
"We're coming!"
"Out of the way!" the two nerdy monster yelled coming with a door shredder as they put caution tape on the door.
"We lost 58 doors this week sir" Jerry said.
"Kids these days they just don't get scarred like they used to" Mr. Waternoose said.
"Let her rip!" the nerd yelled as Jason and Max watched the door go into the shredder as wood chips flew out and the door knob came out of a little drop.
"Attention we have a new scare Leader, Randle Boggs" they heard the woman on the intercom said as Max and Jason saw Randle was in the lead as the Assistants were parsing him but stopped when they noticed Mike throwing off lots of cans from one single door as Sulley came out cracking his knuckles.
"Slumber party" Sulley said as his name went back to the top.
"Never mind."
"Wow James that was an impressive display" Mr. Waternoose said approaching.
"Just doing my job Mr. Waternoose, of course I did learn from the best" Sulley said as they both laughed.
"If I don't see a new door in my station in five seconds I will personally put you threw the shredder!" Randle yelled at his assistant.
"Hey Wazowski nice job! Those numbers are pretty sweet" Charlie slug like monster said to Mike.
"Are they? Oh I hadn't even noticed" Mike said retreating his door, "oh how Georgey doing?"
"He's doing great! I love working with that guy!" Charlie said as an orange and yellow monster came out of the door.
"Keep the doors coming Charlie I'm on a roll today" George said.
"George and I are like brothers!" Charlie said as he gasped in horror when he saw a small pink sock on George back, "23-19! WE HAVE A 23-19!"
"Huh?" Jason said seeing Jerry ran to a red alarm button with a child icon on it and slammed it as a red alarm went off.
"RED ALEART! RED ALEART" the screen then zoomed in on George back and locked on the sock.
"George Sanderson please remain motionless" a woman said as Geroge looked to the screen and saw the sock as he began to panic and tried to reach for it to get it off.
"Oh I get it now!" Jason said.
"Huh?" Max said.
"The reason that monster said he almost died since the kid got to close, and the reason the sock seems to be dangerous, they think kids or toxic or dangerous in some way" Max said.
"DUCK AND COVER PEOPLE!" Jerry yelled as black helicopter with CDA flew outside the window as monsters in yellow jumpsuits kicked in through the windows and swung down on ropes.
"Oh not the CDA!" Mr. Waternoose said.
The monster then tackled George and used large pillars to remove the sock and set it on the ground as they put a metal lid over it and drilled it in as they hit the detonate button as they heard a loud boom from under the lid as they undrilled it and what was left of the sock was a black dust as a Monster began to vacuum it up.
"All clear!"
"Hey thanks guys that was a close on" George said as a yellow tent was put up around him as they heard a razor sound and George yelling as his fur was coming out from above as he was then hit with water and the tent came down and George was now pink with a cone on his neck as he covered himself up.
"Oh poor guy" Jason said as they turned George around and ripped off a small patch of fur.
"AHHHHHH!"
"Ohh! Now I feel really sorry for him but are outside being really dangerous to their health?" Max asked.
"Okay people take a break we have to shut down for half an hour and reset the system!" Jerry yelled.
"An entire scare floor out of commotion what else could go wrong" Mr. Waternoos said heading over to a coffee machine, "what a day!" he said pulling the switch as a black tar began to come out.
"Ew" Max and Jason both said.
"We're just going through a rough time sir and we know you will get us through it" Sulley said.
"Tell that to the board of directors" Mr. Waternoose said.
"So right now they're going through hard times, I bet the Unversed are just making things worse" Max said.
"Well once we get rid of the Unversed it should lessen their burdens" Jason said as they continued to listen.
"James this company has been in my family hands for three generations I would do anything to keep it from going under" Mr. Waternoose said.
"So would I sir" Sulley said.
"Say I could use your help with something."
"Anything sir."
"You see we hired some new scare recruits and frankly they're-they're um uh."
"Inexperienced?"
"They stink!"
"Uh huh."
"I was thinking you come by tomorrow and give them a demonstration and show them what it takes to be a top scarer huh?"
"I will start out with the ole Waternoose jump and growl!" Sulley said as he roared and made Mr. Waternoose jump back as the spider monster laughed.
"Oh yes that's my boy!"
"Hmmm let's stick around and see if we can find those Unversed" Jason said.
"Good idea" Max said.
