Chapter Fifty-Nine: The Journey to Bug City!

Later Flik was held in front of the Royal Ant Committee for a trail as Atta rung her gavel under a large glowing mushroom.

"Flik! What do you have to say for yourself!?" Atta yelled.

"Sorry, I'm sorry for the way I am, I didn't mean for things to go so wrong and I especially didn't want to make you look bad princess" Flik said.

"Well Flik you did!"

"I was just trying to help."

"Then helps us, don't help us!" Mr. Soil growled.

"Help? Help? Help!" Flik said with his eyes widening in realization.

"Flik you are sentenced to one month digging in the tunnels!" Atta said.

"Uh excuse me your highness need I remind you of Flik tunnel within a tunnel project" Throny said.

"HEY! It was an accident you prudes! He was just trying to help! I don't see you coming up with any solutions to try and help make things better!" Jason yelled entering the room with Max.

"Who are you?" Atta said.

"Your highness I'm Jason and this is Max we come for an anthill far from here and dealt with many enemies big and small and Max and I can help with you grasshopper problem" Jason said.

"IT'S PERFECT!" Flik yelled getting everyone attention.

"Perfect? What's so perfect?" The Queen asked.

"Your highness don't you see? We could send someone to get help!" Flik said as the Ant council gasped.

"Leave the island?!" Atta said.

"Now why didn't I think of that? Oh! Because it's suicide!" The Queen said.

"She right! We'd never leave the island" Thorny said.

"Never leave!" Cornelius said.

"There's snakes and birds and bigger bugs out there!" Thorny said.

"Exactly! Bigger bugs! We can find bigger bugs to come here and fight and forever rid us of Hopper and his gang!" Flik said.

"Ludacris!" Mr. Soul said.

"Who would do a crazy thing like that?" Dr. Flora said.

"I'd volunteer I would be very happy to volunteer!" Flik said.

"Me too!" Jason said.

"Count me in!" Max said.

"Ha ha! You got a lot of spunk kid but no one going to help a bunch of ants" The Queen said

"At least we could try! Oh I could travel to the city! I could search there!"

"If you went you'd be on the silly search for weeks" Atta said as the other members all got the same idea.

"Royal huddle!" Thorny said as they turned their backs to whisper.

"What jerks" Jason said knowing well what they were talking about.

"Flik after much deliberation we have decided to grant you your request" Atta said.

"Really?" Flik said.

"Really?" The Queen said.

"Uh really" Atta said.

"OH! Thank you princess! Thank you so much for this chance I won't let you down!" he said shaking her hand.

"Forget it!"

"I should probably stay to repair some of the damage don't you think?"

"NO!" the ant councilmen said.

"Just go!"

"Leave!"

"Go!"

"Come on Flik!" Jason said as he and Max dragged Flik away.

Later that day ants were repairing the holes done by the grasshoppers as Flik left the anthill with a leaf backpack full of gear and wearing a leaf hat as Jason and Max sighed behind him.

"Does he really need all that?" Max asked.

"I guess" Jason said as they walked down past the worker ants towards a hill as Flik turned to his fellow ants.

"Don't worry! The colony is in good hands! Bye now!" Flik said as they walked from view and went down the hill where they heard the colony loud cheers.

"Oh that is just mean!" Jason said.

"Hey fellas beautiful morning" Flik said to two ant boys playing at the top of the grass as they slid down.

"My dad says he gives you one hour before you come back to the island crying."

"Dose he now?" Flik said.

"My dad doesn't think that."

"He doesn't huh?"

"He betting you're gonna die."

"Oh…"

"Yeah he says if the heat doesn't get you the birds will."

"Well I think he's going to make it!" Dot said.

"Nobody asked you your royal shortness."

"Yeah Dot what do you know."

"Hey hey hey! Ease up all right come on, she entitled to her opinion too" Flik said as they stopped reaching the end of the island to see a massive empty river bed but to a bug a massive canyon.

"That is a long way down!" Max said looking to the long drop.

"Oh" Flik said.

"So go already" one of the ant boys said as Flik turned around and approached a dandelion.

"Hmm" Jason said following.

"Hey! The city that way!"

"I know" Flik said as he Max and Jason climbed up the dandelion.

"You're supposed to look for bugs not dandelions!"

"You leave them alone! They know what they're doing!" Dot said.

"That's right!" Flik said picking off one off the small dandelion seeds, "here I go! For the colony and for oppressed bugs everywhere!"

Flik Jason and Max then jumped flying off on the dandelions they held onto.

"Hey it works!" Jason said.

"Bye Flik! Bye Max! Bye Jason!" Dot said.

"Whoa!" Max said as they began to fly down to the rocks leading out of the canyon.

"Good luck guys!"

"Bye!" Flik yelled as they waved and the three didn't see the rock till they all hit it face first.

"UGH!"

"GUYS!" Dot yelled.

"I'm okay!" Flik muffled.

"I think I broke my exoskeleton" Max said.

"Ow ow ow!" Jason said getting up and cracking his back.

"Your dad right they're going to die" the ant boy said to the other.

"You just watch! They're going to get the best roughest toughest bugs you ever see!" Dot said.

Later that night Jason, Max and Flik reached a old shack with a truck parked to it as Jason looked to a bug zapper above.

"No! Harry no! Don't look at the light!"

"I can't help it it's so beautiful!" the fly said hitting the flight and getting shocked a she screamed and fell and crashed onto the porch then into a can next to Jason Max and Flik.

"Ouch" Jason said.

"What the plan Flik?" Max asked.

"Try not to look like a country bug, blend in!" Flik said as they headed to a light under the shake to see bugs fly or walk in or out as they looked to all the box buildings lit it by fireflies and a traffic of bugs.

"Wow" Jason Max and Flik said.

"The City!" Flik said walking forward as a firefly made a red light come on as traffic came at them.

"WHOA! WHOA! WHOA!" Flik yelled as they ran to the cardboard sidewalk.

"Wow these bugs are so organized" Jason said looking at the tourist passing by.

"How are we going to find any candidates with all these bugs?" Jason asked as they heard screaming as they saw a massive Unversed Centipede rise and roar as the traffic of bugs ran past them (Battle Theeme the Tumbling begins!)

"AHHH!" Flik screamed.

"We got this" Jason and summoning his keyblades and Max his sword as they walk into the empty street and blocked the Unversed path.

"What are you doing?!" Flik yelled.

"Just stay back" Max said as the Centipede came at them.

"Go!" Jason yelled as Max gave him a boost and Jason flew in the air and landed on the unversed back and rode it as it tried to buck him off.

"Ha! Ya! Hu!" Jason grunted as he steered the Unversed into a building making it crash as Jason jumped off the now dazed Unversed.

"Bronco Strike!" Jason yelled striking the Unversed several times before sending it flying back.

"Ha! Ya! Take that!" Max yelled striking the Unversed several times.

The Unversed then climbed onto a building then used the horn on his tail to stab in the ground at them as they dodged as Jason jumped onto it and threw his keyblades through the Unversed as it fell over the negativity faded into he air.

"Yep they getting easier I can feel the change in us now, we have improved and for some reason my Kingdom Key and Kingdom Key D are changing" Jason said holding the two keyblade with a faint light pulsing on them.

"What that mean?" Max asked.

"Master once told me that with each battle a Keyblade and its master can evolve and the weapon can sometime transform into what we would call an upgrade, looks like it can happen soon" Jason said.

"Why didn't you tell me you could do that!? You two could have chased off Hopper!" Flik yelled.

"Flik there is an army of them and only two of us, we can't fight of a gang of Grasshoppers on our own" Jason said.

"I guess your right" Flik said looking to a bar where a bug got kicked out the door.

"That looks promising" Max said as they ran to the bar where they saw some bugs at bottle cap tables on the walls and floor.

"Hey! Who ordered the Poopoo Platter?" a Cockroach waitress called as flies flew all over it.

"Ew" Jason said as Flik set his stuff down.

"Excuse me sir, I was wondering if I could talk to you for a minute! I represent a colony of ants and I'm looking for tough bugs! Mean Bugs!" Flik said following a large bug.

"What should we do?" Jason asked Max.

"Hey let's get something to drink" Max said as three flies flew in.

"There she is!" one said as they flew over to a table with a ladybug.

"Three against one huh" Jason frowned.

"Ladybug ladybug fly away home!" the two small flies sang, "okay clown get up and fight like a girl!"

"Hey! Crap head! How about you pick on someone your own size! Picking on girls is low!" Jason yelled.

"Stand back you flies!" the heard Francis yelled.

"…she a he" Jason whispered.

"I see" Max whispered.

"We are the greatest warriors of all of Bugdom!" Francis said.

"Warrior bugs!" Flik smiled.

"My sword!" Francis yelled catching a stick bug

"Swish swish slang slang" Slim said with annoyance.

"Little John!"

"Hi ho Robin! Justice as my sword!" Heimlich the caterpillar said joining in as all the bugs began to back out the bar pushing Flik out as Jason and Max stood away.

"Swing slash! Lunge!" Slim said as the massive fly grabbed Slim and growled, "Francis! It's not working!"

The circus bugs than ran to the wall as the combine weight made the can begin to roll.

"WHOA!" Jason yelled as they ran in the can with the other bugs till they crashed and fell into a pile.

"Help! Help! Get me out!" Slim yelled stuck as Flik ran in to see Francis pull the stick bug out and all the other bugs looking up at him with a light shining down at the heroic like scene with a pilled of bugs on the ground below.

"Wow" Flik said.

"Ow!" Jason groaned as all the other bugs groaned as well.

"YOUR PERFECT!" Flik yelled.

"Huh?" Max said.

"Heroic ones! I have been scouting for bugs of your exact talent!"

"A talent scout!" Gypsy whispered.

"My colony in trouble! Grasshoppers are coming and we are forced to prepare all this food!"

"Dinner theater!" Manny said.

"FOOD!" Heimlich said.

"PLEASE! Will you help us?!" Flik begged.

"Uh Flik" Jason said as they heard a groan and looked behind them to see the flies getting up.

"Where are they?!"

"We'll take the job!" Slim said as they all ran.

"Really?" Flik said as they pulled Flik out of the bar.

"Explain the details on the way!" Slim said as they set Jason, Max and Flik on Dim the Ryno Bettle back as Tuck and Roll joined them.

"Come on everyone break a leg!" Rosie said.

"Wow your vicious!" Flik said.

"Flik I really think you need to listen" Max said.

"Hold on Mr. Ants" Dim said as they all began to fly.

"Amazing! This is too good to be true!" Flik said as they flew above the city.

"Oh dear" Jason said.
