"Say, uh, doc, before we leave I have to go check on something." He looked up at the player and nervously fidgeted with his hands. LeBron looked back at him, finally on the ground in the spaceship.
"Can't it wait? We have to make a team."
"Not really. It'll be really quick! I swear!" The human sighed and nodded. Bugs smiled and immediately ran off the ship and back into town. It didn't take him long to reach the tower, just as he promised. He just had to tell them.
The toon climbed the tower and knocked on the logo door. Two knocks. One knock. Four knocks. Seconds passed. Valuable seconds that he didn't have. LeBron was already way too stressed and he had to make this fast.
The door opened, one head, two heads, three heads poked out.
"Dadoo!" The one in the red cap smiled and launched themself into Bugs' arms. "Did you miss us?"
"Of course he missed us!" The girl appeared on his back, hugging his neck. Bugs looked to the eldest who was quick to join the hug.
"Hey kids. I have to make this quick. But I have to go help somebody and I'll be off-planet for a few hours. I didn't want to leave without telling you." The three looked at him then at each other. "You don't have to stay in the tower, but please don't wonder out of town."
"Alrighty!"
"You got it!"
"Promise!"
He smiled and squeezed the kids one last time before jumped down from the tower. He started running back towards the space ship, not without yelling a quick "I'm making carrot casserole for dinner!" Soon he was back on the ship, sitting directly in the captains seat and smiling at his human companion. He couldn't let him know how worried he was leaving his three by themselves. They already had one kid to worry about.
"Uh... guys?" Bugs turned away from the small argument, instead looking at the clock. Oh. Uh oh.
The clock ticked to zero and a giant wall came crashing down. The team ran away, some barely avoiding it. But the world started reshaping itself. Bugs looked around as his friends ran from different things and buildings falling from the sky. As soon as he was able to get up he looked ack at where ToonTown was suppose to be only to see chunks of of earth out of place and new buildings and the effiel tower? Wait-
The water tower-
He hurriedly looked around quickly finding the iconic water tower grown in size and bending sideways.
"The kids!"
"Kids-?"
"Well if it isnt the old-news Looney Tunes." Right. The game. He's sure the kids are fine. They've, regrettably, been through worse. They're toons. They're fine. He'll find them soon. They're fine.
"I think it's time for an upgrade."
"An upgrade?" Bugs watched as his friends all changed animation styles. The circle glowed under him and before he knew it, he wasn't 2d anymore. He scowled as Al G. continued with his disgusting theatrics before announcing they'd have an audience. The ground shook under them and noise seemed to come from every direction.
"How big are these butts?"
A stampede of toons and characters from different franchises came running from the distance. Scooby gang, the iron giant, Harry Potter, the Flintstones, so many franchises, so many characters. The bunny couldn't help but try to look for those three kids he took such a liking to. With no succession. There were too many. But he's sure they're fine. Only half of the audience is there. Maybe they'll be with the other half.
