Animaniacs Return

Chapter 32: Black Satin Dress

-------------------------------------

"I've just got a burning question." Zenny asked as he wiggled his chains around. "Is there a reason my sisters always have to wear a satin dress for you?"

Warren smiled, but looked over at Iri. "Satin's nice, and you look good in blue."

Iri grumbled.

"Well, since you're not very shy," Zenny continued, "I don't suppose you could tell us just why you really felt the Squirrel's needed comeuppance. I understand how you might think the Warners deserve it, or even Renraw, but why hurt the Squirrels? Just because they knew your creator?"

Warren scoffed. "You think that if you ask, I'll tell you? That I'm bored enough I would just start spilling?"

"Well," Zenny said nonchalantly, "I was kind of hoping."

"I'm not stupid. I'm not like you." Warren practically growled. "Besides, you're going back up with Renraw and Iridescent, and you are going to do as I say." He gave Zenny a nasty grin. "I'm done with Aroma Therapy, so I'm just...itching for a reason to make it worse."

Zenny closed his mouth. He didn't want to ask what he meant, but by the deadly maniacal look in Warren's wide eyes, it couldn't be good.

"And don't bother looking around here again, I'll be gone." Warren added. "I'm way better at picking places than this main sewer. Now, when you go back up. And listen closely, I won't repeat this again." He grabbed Zenny's chain. "You're going to treat Dot like ****. You're going to tell your sister to lie to Wakko Warner, and tell him she's going out with Renraw to appease you."

"What?" Zenny's eyebrow shot up in confusion. Those were stupid requests. Why wouldn't he just threaten their lives not to speak to the Warners? And why was he going to let them go? "Why?"

Then as Warren's smile curled across his face with devilish delight he grabbed Zenny's ear closer...and whispered. When he was sure Zenny got the hint, he winked. "Got it?"

Zenny's head fell limply to his chest. "...yes."

"Oh, and one more thing. You're going to say this exact statement." Warren whispered in his ear again. "Because a game that has no clues is no fun to win. Now you better hurry." Warren laughed as he undid Zenny's locks. "The longer it takes the Warners to figure out the game, the less of a chance she has."

-------------------------------------  

"Oh, there they are!" Wakko laughed. They had gotten so involved in figuring out things themselves, they had forgotten about Iri and Zenny. For a moment, his family thought Zenny and Iri had been taken. Up in front of them though, were a trio of three. "Hey, Renraw is with them too."

"Sorry," Renraw laughed. "I kind of highjacked them for a second. Had some stuff to talk about." He looked over at Iri. "Ready to go back home, Desie?"

"Um, yeah." Iri took his hand.

"What are you holding hands for?" Wakko tried to keep his voice level.

"I forbid her getting involved with any of you." Zenny glared at Wakko. "Besides, they seem to do fine with each other. There is no need to share."

Uh oh. Yakko looked over at his brother.

"You're not gonna listen to him? You're gonna date him?" Wakko asked in an urgent voice. "Iri?"
