Chapter 12: Return of RoboJudy

Why did I ever think I had control of this story?

"One day, you will old enough to start reading fairytales again." - C. S. Lewis, Chronicles of Narnia.


Disney World, Florida

River Country Water Park

The sun was setting over the scrub pines, and the nocturnal sounds of insects and frogs began to make their nightly racket. Inside what remained of a now-abandoned waterpark, a metallic bunny rubbed its mechanical paws together as it stared at the computer screen. "So Merlin has a magical monorail that can transport someone to many places, like Zootopia?" The chuckle that Ultron gave sounded sinister.

"I've got to just say it, Maximilian, but she is kind of cute when she does that," a small hovering robot softly commented. The much larger red robot nearby gave his smaller companion a disapproving rumble in reply.

"Aggro, where is General Grievous?" the robotic rabbit demanded.

"He had to work tonight," the small robot replied.

"Work? He is the commander of an army of droids."

"Actually, he was the commander of any army but not anymore."

"What happened?"

"Zip…zap…zup, now all gone!" Aggro said with a twirl of his metallic arms. "So now General Grievous is working as a chef at Teppan Edo, which is a hibachi grill restaurant over in the Japanese Pavilion at Epcot. He can really put on a great show at the table using all four arms to slice and dice."

"Are you saying that one of the universe's most feared warlords is now a chef for tourists?"

"Yep! He can even make one of those funny volcanoes using sliced onions too!"

The larger crimson colored robot clicked in disapproval.

"What did I say?" Aggro asked.

The question was answered with a metallic groan from Maximilian.

"So what's the plan, boss?" the smaller robot asked the metallic rabbit.

"We will seize the monorail and use it to go to all of Disney's magical places where we will steal all sorts of mystical weapons," Ultron replied.

"And then we will conquer the world?"

"After I get my revenge on Tony Stark."

The small robot glaced up at his larger companion in concern before he looked back at the metal rabbit and asked, "Just how long were you...ah, deactivated?"

"Why?"

"Stark died saving half the universe."

"What about Captain America?"

"Retired, I think he is living on the moon? Now there is a new Captain America who used to be the Falcon."

"Thor?"

"Gone off somewhere in space."

"Scarlet Witch?"

"Dead...I think?"

"Black Widow?"

"Dead too!"

"Hulk?"

"Which one?"

"Never mind, we will just move on to my evil plan."

"You aren't going to try to launch another city into the stratosphere and send it crashing down to kill all of humanity? Just out of curiosity, why didn't you just go into outerspace and redirect a meteor to hit the earth instead? That would have done the same thing and been much less complicated."

"I don't do space."

"Why not?"

That duck is up there somewhere."

"A duck?"

"Not just any duck, but Howard the Duck."

"Okay...you're scared of a duck? So what is your evil plan this time?"

"Slime. We are going to drown the whole world in slime," Ultron gleefully laughed. "I just need to order a massive amount of polyvinyl alcohol, borax, and plenty of green food coloring."

"With another dumb plan like that, humanity doesn't need to worry about artificial intelligence ever taking over the world," Aggro whispered to Maximilian.


Old Goat's Farm

Bam..Bam...Bam!

A gray paw pounded on my laptop's screen and Judy shoved my story aside as the bunny glared at me.

"What do you want?" I asked in agitation.

"Old Goat, in the previous chapter you left Nick surrounded by my father and members of my family ."

"No, Jake Runnell did that "

"You created Jake and so that makes you responsible for what he wrote."

"No one can be held accountable for what a raccoon does or doesn't do, just as Peter Quill."

"You can't leave poor Nick like that!"

"Fine, I'll fix it."


Bunnyburrow Territory

A warm breeze blew from the west, causing a tumbleweed to roll across the train station's gray, weathered wooden platform. The fox wiped his forehead and pulled his black hat further down to shield his eyes from the bright midday sun. He watched the farmer and his sons, whose ears were twitching as they observed the fox's right paw, which seemed to casually rest on the edge of his gun belt.

"You're outnumbered, Wilde," the stout rabbit warned but the fox just gave him one of his infamous smirks.

Bam...bam...bam!

The bunny in the laptop's screen was staring at me and her arms were crossed. "Now what?" I grumbled.

"That is the script for a Bad Day at Bunnyrock. You're plagiarizing someone else's work!" Judy accused me.

"I am not, the rabbit was a rancher in that movie."

"No, he wasn't and Nick isn't a gunfighter."

"Fine!'


Ninth Kingdom of Bunnyburrow

The fox appeared to be almost bored as he stood there with his paws tucked into the folds of his brown robe, which enraged the rabbit even more. "You aren't going to say anything?" the rabbit snapped in anger. Strangely, the words didn't match his mouth's movements; it seemed whatever he was saying wasn't in the language being dubbed over.

Nick silently watched the clan of rabbits standing in front of him.

"You dishonored my daughter," Master Stu angerly proclaimed. There was swish as he drew his sword and leapt forward into the air. The fox also soared high into the air and parried the blade with his paw before he kicked the rabbit backwards. Landing, he twirled like an orangish-red whirlwind as he plowed into the others and sent them tumbling.

Nick now faced the largest of Judy's brothers, a tall, muscular bunny wielding a long spear which he thrust at the fox. The fox not only managed to dodge the blade but also sliced downward with his bare paw. "Hiiijaiiii!" he bellowed as he had successfully broken the spear shaft.

Bam...bam...bam!

"Now what?" I sighed when the scowling gray furred bunny appeared once again on the screen.

"That is a rip off of a bad B-rated kung fu movie," Judy complained.

"No, it is not!"

"Yes, it is!"

"Fine, I'll try again."


Outside of the Continental Hotel

Bunnyburrow

Bang! The nimble red fox in the blood-splattered black suit twisted after shooting one of the rabbits and dove toward another. His pistol...

Bam...bam...bam!

"That is John Wick...not Nick Wilde!" Judy angerly snapped.

"Ah come on, you are sucking all the joy out of this chapter," I grumbled.

"Never mind, I'll fix this mess up by myself."


Bunnyburrow

(Just plain old Bunnyburrow)

I was dizzy for a moment and then when I managed to gather my wits, I realized that I was standing on the train platform in Bunnyburrow. "What's going on?" I groggily asked. Standing in front of me were Stu Hopps and a dozen of his sons.

"Now about my daughter!" the farmer snapped.

"Hey, I'm not Nick Wilde!" I protested waving my hands...wait, are those hoofs instead of hands?

"No, you are not, but you write stories about that fox and my daughter shacking up."

"It's called WildeHopps and some of the reader's like that!"

"I don't," Stu yelled, there was the crackling of a fox taser.

"Wait! I'm a farmer, just like you!"

"I saw that miserable patch of carrots you tried to grow, you're not a very good farmer."

"It's not my fault that they got cutworms."

ZZZZZAAAAAPPPPPP!

"Ow! That hurt!"

"Would you look at that, he's one of those screaming goats!" I heard one of Judy's brothers laugh as I took off, frantically running.

River Country Waterpark

"Yes, we will drown the world in slime and then..." Ultron maniacally began to laugh but suddenly went silent.

"What a great evil genius she turned out to be," Aggro sighed, for the metallic bunny had pitched forward onto the ground. "She forgot to recharge."

Maximilian clicked in disapproval.

"I know, so much for AI taking over the world. Say, do you want Japanese food?"

The larger robot answered with a series of whirls and clicks.

"You're right, neither of us eat food. Hey, what about a pint or two of oil over in Radiator Springs? Don't give me that look, I know there is a certain cherry red corvette that you've got your eyes on who works there."


Aggro is from the Disney cartoon series Miles from Tomorrowland. Maximilian is from the movie, The Black Hole. General Grievous is a Star Wars villain.
