FoxFire Studios and Company (MechTail waves) Presents A Firestorm FanFict "The Rangers of NIMH" By Paul Lapansee, and David Gonterman Chip 'n' Dale's Rescue Rangers by The Walt Disney Company Any attempts of lawsuit from The Walt Disney Company *will* result in the immediate roboticization of their entire cartoon population, starting with Mickey!! Jonathan Brisby and The Firestorm Imprint by David Gonterman The Secret of NIMH a Don Bluth Production which is based upon the book Mrs. Frisby (Brisby) and the rats of NIMH by Robert C. O'Brien Watching the movie it helps you understand what is going on. Just a thought, why is Gadget so smart? _______________________ The Ranger's where flowing a leaded of break-ins. Some one was stealing medical equipment, after seeing how the equipment was stolen it could only be... "Nimnul" Chip said as he look at the shattered door. "To right Chip. Only a nut like him would do this." Monty said. Gadget looked around. "I looks like he was only after some medical reports." They looked at the toppled over cabinets. Dale picked up a piece of paper. "Hey guy's I think I found something." Gadget grabbed it. "Hmm It has something to do with lady dying of brain cancer and being cured after being bitten by a rat. Strange all the files stolen where of strange cases involving rats." "Rats how do rats fit into this." Chip scratched his head. "Nimnul's been stealing Medical Equipment all this time. Why would he steal old files?" Dale looks sleepy. "Chip can we go home now there's nothing else to look at?" Monty yawns. "Dale right lad we need some sleep. We can figure this out tomorrow." Chip looked frustrated. "All right, all right we'll look into it tomorrow." They head back to ranger headquarters. _______________________________ Deep in underground in a city of Rats, there is a middle age rat sitting in a chair. Life was good for them easy access to the city resources. The rat frowned a bit. He wanted so much for them to live without stealing. They tried once. But a flood nearly killed them out in forest, so they came to the city. Yes as long as they stayed underground things where all right. But a few went up into the city to get food and some never came back. A strange-looking mouse wearing a red amulet walked up to him. "It's good to see you again, Jonathan," The rat said. The mouse brushed aside his rather punk-style hair. "Justin, I heard you were looking for me." He smiled. The rat sat up. "Yes I was. We have a problem." _______________________________ The next day the Rangers where siting around a table trying to figure out there next move. "Well, we can either wait for Nimnul to strike next or find him before he does." Chip said. Gadget looked at Chip. "He would need a big place to hold all that equipment. Maybe if we check out some old factories he could be hiding out in one of them." There was a knock at the door. "I get it." Dale said. He opened it. "Can I help you?" There stood a rather handsome-looking mouse in a black vested jumper with white sleeves and red-and-white checkered collars, and wearing a sparkling red amulet. He quietly entered the room and smiled. "Actually it is I who can help you." ____________________________________ "Who are you?" "The name's Jonathan Brisby. I came from a rat village around town. It appears that both of us are on the same case, and I thought we could compare notes." "Oh. Sure, come on in." "jonathan brisby, eh? the name sounds familiar," said the large Australian mouse at the back. Chip looked at him. "You said that you are working on a case like ours, just how do you know, we never meet before. Do you belong to a group like ours?" Jonathan looked at him. "I have a lot of friends who have told me things about your group. As for you other question. No I usually work alone." "Then why ask us?" "Well I a.. It's kind of.. I need help, this case has left me puzzled." Chip shows the new guy around: "Well you have come to the right place. My name is Chip, That's Monterey Jack--don't strain your brain remembering, monty--, that's Zipper, he's Dale and..." Jonathan wasn't listening at that point. He was locked in a gaze with the girl mouse. "h-hello, there," she said. "I'm Gadget. Gadget Hackwrench." "Charmed," Jonathan held out his paw. Gadget blushed slightly and stretched out her paw to his. When she took it, his amulet that hung from his neck glowed--slightly, but for all to notice. JB looked self-consciously at the rock. "You've got to excuse me. I got this amulet from my great-grandfather from his adventures from NIMH. It gets this way when it senses someone with courage and . . . character . . . and stuff [turns to amulet] Back to bed, you." It shut itself off. "*NIMH!!*" Monty's brain finally clicked in. "You're great-grandfather, does he have the same name--" Gadget was struck by the word NIMH something from her past, something she couldn't quite put her finger on. "Yes, he does. You've heard of him, I see." "Do I ever?! JB, your great-grandpappy's an legend . . ." ------------------------ The Rescue Ranger's sat around the table and listened to Monty telling them what he knew of the original Jonathan Brisby. "Oh come Monty are you saying that RATS became supper intelligent because of some experiment?" "That's what I heard mate's I wasn't there but.. [He looked at Gadget.] I have heard stories." Gadget looked at Chip. "As strange as it may seem Chip. The reports stolen had to do with RATS and knowing Nimnul anything is possible." Jonathan repeated the name. "Nimnul...Nimnul now where have I heard that name before, just who is this guy?" There was a knock at the door. Chip stood up. "I get the door guys." Gadget explained there adventures with Nimnul while Chip answered the door. "Dale come quick there's letter its for both of us." Chip sounded excited and Dale ran up. "Do you think it's it?" "Well there RAS logo on it." Chip said. They both read the letter. The group watched as the two chipmunks jumped around like they won the lottery or something. "Yes!" Chip yelled "Crikey mates what's the letter say? Don't leave us in the dark." "It's a letter from the Rescue Aid Society. They have two openings in this area and guess who they wanted to fill the positions?" Chip said with a smirk. "You two?" Gadget said. "Yeper's Gadget." Dale said. There was silence. Jonathan watched as their face's dropped. Gadget sniffed back her tears. Jonathan gave her a gentle tap on the leg and a look of sympathy. Zipper landed on Monty shoulder. "I'm happy for you guys." Gadget said. Chip's face also shared in the sadness. "Well I.. the letter says we have a week to decided so maybe we can solve this case before then." They nodded. "Sorry to brake the mood guys but I think I know where Nimal is going to strike next." JB said looking at a map. "Where?" Jonathan pointed to a building. "There is more then one branch in this country and all the places that where hit have contracts with The National Institute of Mental Health." "N-I-M-H--NIMH!" Gadget said. ________________________________ Nimnul is seen working on some equipment. "Oh yes just a few minor adjustments and..[The factory's lights turn on.] Tada.. not even the power company can stop me. He he he." He walks over to a computer. "Now let me see who next?" He taps in some commands and a map appears on the screen. A flashing red box appears over a building. "Oh yes. Now if I remember correctly the building has a type 5 alarm system. This calls for plain E.. he he he E as in Earthquake ha ha ha haaa." _____________________________ Back at the Ranger Tree. Gadget is seen making some minor adjustments on the Ranger Wing. Jonathan looks at the plane in amazement. "Gadget who built this?" "I did." She said from under the plane. "You did?" "Actually I built it according to one of my fathers blue prints. He use to designed planes in his spare time." She slid out from under it. Jonathan grabbed her paw and helped her to her feet. "Your father must have been very smart. I would like to meet him one day." "Gadget's father is dead, mate." Monty said as he walked up. "Oh I'm sorry I didn't know." "It's ok this is my family now." Her ears dropped as she remember about Chip and Dale. Chip walked out side. "You guys ready?" They nodded and hoped into the plane. Jonathan sat beside Gadget to much of Chip's regret. The plane lifted off the ground and zipped away with the Rangers. "Wow-whee, Gadget," Jonathan said as they flew off. "This is some plane. There are some Rats I know that would just like to meet you!" "That reminds me, mate: What happened to the Rats after they broke out of NIMH?" "It's a long story, Monty. After a while outside of captivity, they believed that they have become smart enough to live independently of human's . . . er, can we say, 'benefits?'" "HA!! That's a nice way of telling us that they don't wanna *steal* anymore!" Jonathan held up a finger. "I quote our first leader, the Late Nicodemus: 'We can't live as rats anymore. We *know* too much.' So we perused this dream of ours, with variable degrees of success. The Rats trekked out to The Thorn Valley Reservation Park, and builded our little civilization from there." "Thorn Valley. I heard that place got dammed up four years back." "Yeah. That almost flooded us. We had to move the entire city to higher ground. Had to split off several parties to build new villages, also." "Jonathan," Gadget asked, "We've read about a brain cancer patient getting cured by a bite from a rat. Is that because of those experiments at NIMH?" "Mmmm. Brain Cancer, you say?" Jonathan scratches his chin "It could be. The Rats have top scientists of their own figuring out exactly *what* they did to them. Their reports say that the NIMH experiments had to do about finding a cure for brain damage, retardedness, learning disabilities, and what other stuff to that account. What they have in their formulas is something that not just repair damaged brain cells but enhances already healthy brain matter to, shoot, I don't know." "Golly" Gadget said as JB got to this point. She was drifting off into her own thoughts, pausing just to listen to Jonathan describe the NIMH experiments. As a child--she could barely remember--she could hear her father talk about being caught in a lab at one time. She didn't care about it then, but now? Did Geegaw Hackwrench came from the National Institute of Mental Health? Is he one of those legendary 'Rats of NIMH?' And what does this mean to her? Is *this* why she's one of the brighter mice in the city? "I don't know about you, mates, but I do hope NIMH *kept* that formula. If their test subjects can learn how to read, break out of their labs on their own, go off to some forest and build their own civilization, I'd say *that* could be a sign that they're doing something *right!!*" _______________________ "There it is." The ranger plane few up to a building that looked like a small hospital. "Nice big place they have here." Monty said. JB looked down. "NIMH must be doing well these days. I remember hearing once that they almost went bankrupt because of budget restraints. There was also something about a guy trying to take the created for some of there discoveries. He ended up in a mental institution." The ranger plane landed on the roof. "OK guys lets find a way in. If Nimal strikes again well be here to stop him. Dale you stay here." "A come Chip, I don't want to miss out on the fun." Dale said. "Dale we need a look out. If you see Nimal give us a shout on the radio." Dale agreed and sat on the ranger wing. The rest of them looked around. "Hmm all the vents have screens on them. I guess they don't want any small visitors." JB said smiling like he was not surprised. "No problem mates just give me a crack at it." The large mouse grabbed hold of the screen and pulled. The screen slowly gave way and popped out of its socket. "Man, and I though Brutis was strong." The group tied a rope and slid down the shaft. Dale watched them disappear from view. "There the go again with out me.. One day I'll show Chip." He sighed as the sun started to set. "Where are you?..." He said looking at the sky. ---------------------- The group quietly walked through the heat vents. It's a good thing it's not winter. They came across a computer room and looked out of the vent. Two humans where working with VR equipment manipulating DNA strings on the computer screen. "OK Frank I think I got the sequences right." The other human removed his helmet and walk up to the computer. "Yes the computer is now saving it and sending it to the main frame. The human took his helmet off. "Good." He looked at the clock. "Well where already 1 hour late. So we better go before they lock up." The computers where turned off and they walked out the door. JB looked at Chip. "OK now what?" "We wait. If Nimal is going to strike. He usually waits until after closing time." JB looked at the computer and got an idea. "Monty can you help me open this vent." The two mice popped the vent open and walked into the room. JB looked around. "Nice set up." He hopped on all fours and climbed up the chair. "Hey what are you doing?" Chip yelled out. "Just getting some info which may help us." He said looked down from the chair. He found the on switch. 'CLICK' The computer came to life. "Golly Chip he's even good at computers." Gadget said looking up. "More like a computer geek." Chip said under his breath. "Aha UNIX... hmm I'm a bit rusty but.." 'tap, taps, tap, tap..' 'Beep.' "Darn that didn't work." 'tap, tap, taps, Beep!' "Fine be that way!" Chip scratched his head. Gadget half understood what he was doing. "Chip, look around to see if they have a list of passwords around here." Zipper was already on it. He dived into a drawer and pulled out a slip of paper. "Find me *any* human who keeps their passwords safe," Jonathan smirked, "even biogenetic scientists?" He typed in. 'Just a sec.' The computer screen blurred as information zipped by. Beep Access Granted. "Access profile on subject" A picture of a younger looking Nimnul appeared on screen.' "Crikey that's Nimnul. What does it say." JB slapped himself on the face. "Now I remember! Nimnul. Professor Norton Nimnul. He was the guy who wanted credit from NIMH. He was on the same team that experimented on..." The door opened, two guards walked in waving flashlights around. "Halt! you... mice???" "RUN FOR IT!" Chip screamed. JB did a quick tap on the computer and jumped off the chair and dashed for the vent with the others. The guards looked at each other. "Hey Fred, lets keep this to our selves, I don't think anyone would believe us ." The guard looked at the computer screen and saw this message just a second before the screen went blank: WE'VE DONE IT, PINKY!! JUST ANOTHER STEP ON OUR QUEST TO TAKE OVER THE WORLD--BRAIN JB snickered as he brought up the rear up the vent. "I'd like to see Warner Brothers explain *that!* Too hot shot lab rats still stuck in their cages thinks they can take it over, when *we've* already have!!" "Hah-hah-hah" Monterey slapped Jonathan on the back. "I like your style, kid!" ---------------------- Dale is yawning as he is trying to stay awake. He sits up and bonks himself on the head. "Got say awake." Dale looks around and spots a bread-box truck parked a distance away in another parking lot. The lights are on inside. He grabs the binoculars and zooms in. The rounded zoomed in image show two couples kissing and foreplaying hard in the back of a car. "Oops!" Dale moves the binoculars and zooms on the truck. Nimnul jumps out of the drivers side. Dale almost dropped the binoculars while he reached for the radio. 'CLICK.. In the NEWS today..' "Oops." 'CLICK' "Gadget can you hear me?" Gadget grabs the her homemade transceiver. "I can hear you Dale." "I have spotted Nimnul he's here.. ----------------------------------------------------------------------------- FoxFire Studios and Company (MechTail waves) Presents A Firestorm FanFict "The Rangers of NIMH Part 2" By Paul Lapansee, and David Gonterman Chip 'n' Dale's Rescue Rangers by The Walt Disney Company Any attempts of lawsuit from The Walt Disney Company *will* result in the immediate roboticization of their entire cartoon population, starting with Mickey!!

O'Brien Watching the movie it helps you understand what is going on. Just a thought, what ever happened to the RATS of NIMH did they ever get to Throne Valley? ---------------------- "I have spotted Nimnul he's here and he just went inside his truck." ---------------------- "A.. work of art. It should be after all I made it ha hahaaa." Nimnul said as he pulled the cover off a very large robot mole. He opened a hatch inside it and jumped in. "Now time for some serious devastation. COME ON BABY LETS DO THE TWIST!" The robot did a dance as it jumped out of the truck. It looked at the building and dug it way under ground. ---------------------- "Nimnul! Come on guys, lets get to the roof! Rescue Rangers Away!" Chip said as they ran through the heating ducts. The duct shook. They stopped and Chip looked at Gadget. "What was that?" There was a violent shake. "It feels like a.... EARTHQUAKE!!" Gadget yelled. Dale felt the hole building shaking. "What the!!." Dale looked over the edge and saw what looked like a very large mole trail pushing the ground up as it moved underground. The guards ran out of the building. "CRIKEY HANG ON MATES!!" The duck shook violently and the Rangers got banged around inside. JB felt the duck giving way from its supports. [CREAK....SNAP!] The metal tube dropped down and the rangers slid down it like a water slide. Gadget was the first to fall out of the tube on to the ground. She got out of the way as the rest rolled out of the tub. --------------------- The earthquake stopped. "Is every on ok?" Gadget said. "I guess I.." Jonathan said as another quake hit. A large robot mole dug its way through the floor knocking over a large piece of equipment. "GADGET LOOK OUT!" Gadget tried to run out of the way. 'CRASH!!' It fell on top of her. "NO GADGET!" Monty ran to it and tried to lift but there was no way he could move that not even a strong human could do it. The hole group tried. "NAAAAAERRGGGG" ---------------------- The mole stopped and a hatch open. "I always said that heavy metal would bring the house down hahahhahaaaa." Nimnul said as he hoped out and walked to a near by safe. He look at it. "Hmmm 3 feet of titanium. Oh well." Nimal hit a button on his remote and the mole walked up to the safe. A slot opened on its nose and a small ray gun aimed at the safe. 'SAWWIISHHHH..' A freeze ray froze the safe door. Nimal walked to the safe and pulled out a small hammer from his jacket. "Knock, Knock." He said as he hit the door with the hammer. The safe door shattered like glass. "Tisk, Tisk they don't build safes like that use to Haha ha haa." He walk in. ---------------------- "Gadget can you hear me!" Jonathan yelled out. There was no reply from the wreckage. The roof started to collapse. "We've got to get out of here the whole place is coming down. JB come on there nothing we can do!!" Monty grabbed him and pulled him away. "NO WE CAN'T JUST LEAVE HER. LET ME GO!" He pulled free from Monty. Jonathan's amulet glowed bright. Chip went to grab him but something froze him in place. JB whole body seemed to be on fire. Nimnul heard what sounded like fire but something was different. He ran into the other room. "Its those rodents... WHAT THE....*HECK?**" Nimnul was struck with awe as he watched the strange glowing mouse. Jonathan walked to the piece of equipment like he was in a trance. He placed his paws on its surface. The equipment lifted off the ground. Gadget was lying underneath it. Jonathan looked at her and she floated towards him and landed gently in his arms. Gadget was also covered in the same glow as he. The equipment landed gently on the ground. Jonathan looked towards a near by wall and aimed his paw at it. A fire ball formed in his hand and shot towards the wall, blasting a hole threw it to the outside. The other rangers fallowed him outside. Nimnul saw them leaving. "NO COME BACK..'THUD'." The hole wasn't big enough for him. "I must get that mouse! He just called Mickey a wimp in the magic department without saying a word!! The powers he must have--I MUST HAVE IT!!" Nimnul said as he ran inside. The glow faded away and JB dropped to the ground. Gadget fell out of his arms and rolled gently on the ground. "Jonathan? Gadget?" Chip said. They where both out cold. "Chipper we'd better get them back to the tree." Monty said as Dale landed the Ranger Plane nearby. ---------------------- Justin looked at the magic viewing sphere and watched as the rangers pulled Jonathan and Gadget into the plane. "Jonathan used the amulet and is weak, old friend, I fear for him. He may need your help." A old mouse looked into the viewer. "Just like his great-grandfather, always risking himself for others." The mouse limped away using a cane. ---------------------- "Gadget, are you ok?" Gadget opened her eyes. "I think so.." She sat up and tried to stand. "OUCH!.. I think I hurt my ankle." Gadget sat down again holding her foot. She turned her head and saw Jonathan laying there near her. "Jonathan! Is he alright?" "I can't tell Gadget love. It's as if he is in a deep sleep. I tried to wake him but... nothing. What ever that amulet did it must have taken a lot out of him." Monty said looking at him. "I think I should get some help. He might need a doctor." Chip said as he put his hat on. Just as Chip opened the door a old mouse knocked on his head. "Hey!" "Sorry there young one." He looked over and saw Jonathan. "I believe I have found the right place. I am Doctor Ages a friend of Jonathan." ---------------------- "Can some one help me remove his shirt." Gadget watches as Chip helps him remove Jonathan's shirt. Gadget gaze is fixed on his chest. Jonathan tightly fitted muscles show. 'He not an Arnold but I give him a 10 anyways.' She thinks to her self. "Golly . . . He sure is well developed." A small thought comes to mind as she looks down. Like a flash she changed the channel. "It's the effect's of the formula. Mice and Rats from NIMH some times over-develop, they become more humanoid." Gadget looks at herself. Mr Ages opens his bag and pulls out some very impressive medical equipment. "They actually make them that small?" Chip says. "Who? . . . Oh I made them with some RATS. You wouldn't believe how many house calls I get at times just so they can watch me use these things." He opens a eye lid and flashes a small light on the eye. "Is his eyes dilated?" Gadget asks. "No." He uses a stethoscope and listens to his chest. "Hmmm..." Gadget hopes over. "May I?" The doctor hands it over. "His breathing seems normal. Hmmm..." She says. Dale yawns as he tries to stay awake. Chip and Monty sit at the table sharing some cheese. A short time later. "Just like the last time." He grabs some bottles and mixes up something for him. "Golly you mean that this has happened before?" Gadget says looking at Jonathan's amulet. "I'm afraid so. The amulet's power is only limited by one's own inner strength. He may one day master it. But until then it will cause him to over exert himself. I'll give him something to help his metabolism to recover. But he will need to take it easy for a day or two." Doctor Ages gives the drink to Jonathan and helps him swallow it. He's too weak to stay awake. "Now its your turn young lady, sit down and let me look at that foot of yours." Gadget sits down and lets him work. He moves the foot around. "OUCH!" Gadget says. "There's no broken bones its just swollen bad. [He pulls out a small bottle.] Here drink this it will help with the swelling and pain." "Your a very smart lady err.." He says as he raps up her foot in a bandage. "Gadget." "Oh yes; sorry my short term memory is not what it used to be. Have you praticed medicine before." "Not that much I learned alot from reading." Gadget says as he finshed with her leg. "Reading is good; it's how to form young minds, not with all this mindless human programs on TV. Though I do like that show with those strange mice who are trying to take over the world. Be careful with that foot for the rest of this week G..Gadget." "Well lets get to bed every one. We have a long day ahead of us. Mr. Ages you can stay the night here if you want we have a empty room for guests." Chip said as he yawned and pushed Dale over. 'THUD' "Hey!" Dale said as awoke from his light sleep. "Much abliged I need to talk to Jonathan in the morning." "This way." Dale said as he walked the old mouse to the guest room. "Gadget are you going to bed?" Chip asked. "Yes but I want to stay with Jonathan for a little while." "There's no reason Gadget, he should be alright." Chip was trying to find a excuse to keep Gadget away from him. "Chip he saved my life. It's the least I could do for him." Monty put his big paw on Chip shoulder and shakes his head at him. "oh.. OK Gadget, good night." Chip walks away with Monty and looks back as he turns the light out. -------------------- Gadget is seen sleeping next to JB. JB sleeps quietly next to her his amulet glows dim and gives off a fant glow in the darkness. In another time. In another place . . . In a hurricane of wind and fire . . . Gadget Hackwrench is swept away . . . Buffeted at all sides . . . Shredding into her clothes . . . Stinging her eyes . . . Drowning out her cries for help . . . Feeling all hope for a way out fade . . . Convinced that this demon wind will have her for eternity, as a toy, batting her around like a cat too bored to eat her. Indeed. This would be her fate . . . had her cries not been heard, that is. A arm stretched out for her, she uses all her strength to reach it. The arm pulls her out of the collumn of violent air, straight into the eyes of: "Jonathan--" Suddenly, vertigo, a fall, Gadget realizes that she was fifty feet above an ocean . . . The splash shot up five feet into the air. She finds out that the remains of the overall that was shredded in the hurricane was promptly removed by the impact in water. "Great, there goes the 'G' rating, I'm really going to get Jeffrey for this," she thinks as she sinks into the deep. Her naughty bits are not shown (The Disney-owned camera is treating this in the same matter as the beach scene in "The Little Mermaid," God bless them.), but as those came arms reach out for her back, it is apparent that the elements have completely stripped her. And she was too exausted to care over it, as two seashells covers her breasts and is tied at the back a la Ariel. As a skirt of seaweed and palm leaves is wrapped around her waist. As hands carees her sides and carries her back to the surface. To air. Gadget inhales gallons as Jonathan wraps one arm from behind. "We're in the hurricane's eye," he says as he paddles from underneath. "We're safe from the wind here. Breath deeply, Gadget Love. I need you to float so I can carry you to land." "i don't have much choice," she says, half-conscious, as she lets her body go limp and listens to her hero swim to shore. Into the sandy beach, as he dragged her to dryer ground. Once he was sure that she was safe, Jonatahan laid down on the sand away from Gadget, who slowly opened her eyes to view the chaotic storm that angerly rages around her, but unable to take over this topical island. 'Dreams have a way of being shaped by whatever's happening when we're awake,' Gadget thinks to herself. 'This hurricane can be a symbol of what is going on with me, and believe me there's an awful lot: It's not just the cancelation of our series, there's the universal turmoil over Michael Eisner's upcoming retirement. It's not that I blame him at all with his medical condition, I mean, after an emergency quadruple bypass, noone should keep going as hard and fast as he's been doing, and he still hasn't slowed down yet. Sooner or later he's gotta do so or else he'll just drop dead where he stands just like that baseball umpire did on opening day. And there's Chip and Dale being accepted into the Rescue Aid Society as well. That means that not only will the Rescue Rangers break up, but all chances of me going steady with either chipmunk goes out the window, much to my sadness. I guess spending too much time on my inventions has taken its toll. And now, Jonathan. Who *is* this guy? I know he's a descendant of a Rat of NIMH--actually, a *Mouse* of NIMH--something that I *could* be myself, but I'm not sure--how did he pulled me out of the building?--how did my clothes get stripped bare . . . This 'Little Mermaid' outfit helps a bit . . . but won't he try something . . . with me . . .' Her mind was racing faster than her mouth at a moment, then emptied itself of all coherent thoughts. She rolled her head to the side Jonathan was at. He was flat on his back as well, wrearing only denium cuttoffs, shilloetted by a sunset that blases between the horizon and the cloudbank. His head was tilted away from her and his eyes were closed. He looked rather hunky, for a mouse, but he wasn't being threatening at all. "You okay, Gadget Love," he said. "Yeah, JB. Thanks a lot." Gadget awoke that morring holding JB's paw in her's. He was smiling.. ----------------------------------------------------------------------------- FoxFire Studios and Company (MechTail waves) Presents A Firestorm FanFict "The Rangers of NIMH" Part 3 By Paul Lapansee, and David Gonterman Chip 'n' Dale's Rescue Rangers by The Walt Disney Company Any attempts of lawsuit from The Walt Disney Company *will* result in the immediate roboticization of their entire cartoon population, starting with Mickey!!

Just a thought, Did the Rescue Ranger's copy The Rescue Aid Socity or was it the other way around. ---------------------- Gadget awoke that morring holding Jonathan's paw in her's. He was smiling.. "Jonathan?" The mouse opened his eyes slowly. "How do you feel?" Gadget said looking at him. "ermmmf... Morring Gadget Love... Did I miss anything?" He smiled. "Are you going to be ok?" She was still holding on to his paw. He noded. "Just seeing your lovely face in the morring is all I need." Jonathan rub her paw gently as she let go. She felt a warm glow from her face. She quickly turned away. There was the sound of the TV running in the back ground. Cartoons were heard. Gadget walked out into the living room and saw Dale watching TV. "Good morring Dale." "Hi Gadget. How's Jonathan?" "He's awake I was about to tell Doctor Ages." "I'm right here." Gadget saw the short mouse wave his cane in the air he was sitting near the TV also. Gadget almost giggled at the sight of a old mouse watching cartoons. */Some people never grow up.\* "Oh golly I'm a mess." Gadget said as she felt her hair and walked in to the hall way. "G'day Gadget." Monty said as he finshed triming his mustach. Gadget wated on till Monty left the bathroom and went in. Chip walk out and saw Dale watching TV he looked over and saw Mr. Ages checking on Jonathan. "Hey what a suprise. Didn't expect you here?" Jonathan said. "Don't you start with me Jonathan. You used that amulet again at full power and you know what does.." ---------- "Dale keep it here its time for the morring news?" Chip said as he watched. "Good Morring Metro. I'm Tracy Hat with the morring news. First up Police and Fire Fighters where called to the Metro's Research Center Of Mental Health. When what appeard to be a earth quake hit the building at around 9:45 last night. No injures where reported. . ." "er, you forgot Gadget's swollen foot and JB's two fried hands. I hear that amulet of yours gets kinda hot. . ." "I know, Monty. That's why I wrear gloves." " . . . Experts say that there was no logical reason for this localzed quake and say the cause was do to faulty construction of the bulidings foundations. . ." Chip guffawed, "And where did we hear *that* before? Like anyone's going to believe a mad scientist started it." ". . . Police have yet to come up with a estament of damage cost. Police are also investagating the loss of chemacles which were stolin during the incident. NIMH, The National Institute of Mental Health which has a contract with Metro Research Center whould not comment on the contantes of these chemacles. But they did state that the cheamcals are dangerus and can prove to be fatal if used. Police are still searching for suspects in the robery. There is also no posative conclusion that this robery has any connection with the other spree of roberys thew out the city. And in other news..." 'CLICK' "This is bad." Doctor Ages said. "If the chemacles stolen are the same that was use on us..." "There's no telling what Nimnul will be capable of doing with it. We have to stop him at all costs." JB smaked his fists together. "It's all staring to make sence now. All the roberys. They all had to do with NIMH. We have got to find him before it's too late." Chip got his hat and walked to the door. The others also walked up to the door. Doctor Ages stoped JB. "Your not strong enough Jonathan, you need more time." "But I got to stop Nimnul..." Gadget walked in front off him. "Not you Jonathan, US. When the time is right. Chip, Dale, Monty and Zipper will look for him." "What about you Gadget Love?" Monty asked. Gadget pointed to her foot. "I'll just slow you guys down. I'll stay here with Jonathan and Mr. Ages. Maybe we can find away to neutralize those chemacles." Chip was about to protest but Monty pushed him out the door with Dale. Jonathan wanted so much to just walk out that door but Gadget and Mr. Ages pulled him back. "That's our Jonathan Brisby, child," Ages quipped. "Always too adventurous for his own good. That's how his namesake became cat food, If I recall." "Yeah, Doc, sure. Like some measily flea-bitten, dumb ol' cat can beat up a Brisby . . ." ---------- Gadget appeared to be frustrated. Mr. Ages looked at her. "Don't worry your self Gadget, not even the RATS could totaly figure out the formula." "But I'm so close all I need is one more ingeredent..." She looked at Mr. Ages, Jonathan and then she looked at her self. "I am very immpressed by your designs, Gadget," Ages said as he inspects her work. "It is much like my own tools. You are just as smart as us NIMH Rats." "Do you think so? "Mr. Ages... This has been bugging me for some time now ever since I heard that NIMH was apart of all this. A old memory of my father comes to mind. His name was Geegaw Hackwrench." Mr. Ages face drops and he paces around Gadget's work shop. Jonathan and Gadget watch as the old mouse continues to repeat his name. Gadget remembers back long ago. --------Begin Flashback "Criky there Geegaw. Would you look at little Gadget there. She has just sorted all the number blocks in order and she can't even walk upright yet." Monty see's the look in Geegaws face. "Ah. What is it mate?" Geegaw looks at Monty. "It's not natural I'm afraid." "What do you mean?" "It's from me . . ." --------End FLashback "Geegaw Hackwrench.. Geegaw Hackwrench.. GEEGAW HACKWRENCH!!! I remember.. It was a very long time ago. He was a young mouse at the time.. He was at NIMH with us." With that Ages motioned Jonathan closer to him and Gadget. "There is something I haven't told either of you about our legacy: You know that during our escape, all but two of the mice, the original Jonathan Brisby and myself, were sucked down an air shaft. I didn't think it was possible that any of them survided. But it looks like we were wrong! Gadget if your father is the same one then it would explane alot." Gadget gets another flash back. --------Begin Second Flashback "What do you mean?" "It's from me. That why she's so smart. Monty, when I was about your age. Me and some of my friends got cault by humans. We were put into a lab and used for testing. You can't imagin the pain and death I saw and felt there. I don't know what they did to me but, there was also others. A rat named Nicodemus was able to open his cage. First he freed all the rats and then us. We planed our escape one night through the ventalion shaft. As we where escaping, the fans kicked in and we where sucked down. The rope that was made got cault on to my foot so I didn't fall to my death like my friends. When I got out I looked for the others but I didn't find them. What you see all around you, my inventions, drawings and my plane, is because I am smart. I never knew how to do any of this untill after NIMH." Monty sits back. "Are you going to tell Gadget when she gets older?" "I will when I feel the time is right but untill then... Monterey Jack I want you to promise me that you woun't tell her. I don't want her to feel different from the other mice. She has a hard enough time making friends as is." Monty smiles. "Don't worry mate you can depend on me." --------End Second Flashback Gadget was crying. "Gadget whats wrong?" Jonathan asked and rubed her shoulder. She responed and held him in a tight imbrace. "He's was right it all makes sence... I.. I am different.. Oh daddy why?.. Why did you have to die.. Why weren't you there to tell me.." Jonathan holds her for a long time. His shoulder feels water logged. Gadget sniffs and sits down. "I'm sorry for that out burst there I'm usally not that emotional." Mr Age's looks at Gadget. "There is only one way to know for sure Gadget, if the formula is in your blood." He walks up to her. Gadget streachs out her arm. A sample of her blood is taken. A solution was added to the sample in a vial. "Now then, If the NIMH formula is in your blood, Ms. Hackwrench, this blood sample will turn blue." He capped the vial. He shook. The blood turned blue. Gadget looked at it in awe. "Gadget, you're one of *us*. This is great." "Then its all true... I'm smart because of some exparment.." "Not totally Gadget the formula only enhances what you all ready are. You where born an inventor and that is what you are, even if NIMH did give you a little help." JB says trying to dry her tears. "Child, in you and in Jonathan our legacy continues to the next generation. I am honored as you should be to have you be among us. Feel free to visit us over at Thorn Valley sometime. There is much we can teach you, Gadget." After a while of quiet between the two, Jonathan desides to cheer up Gadget. He pulls a red marble out of a pocket and makes it disappear and reappear several times over as Gadget watches intently. "Golly, You're a magician too?" "Why, yes, Gadget," Ages said between sips of coffee. "JB here was raised by his uncle Copper, a very famous illusionist in our parts. He taught Jonathan everything he knows." Finding an empty bucket, Jonathan turned one marble into three and let them fall into it. He then made three more appear and let those fall in too. He did that over and over a few times. "He can keep doing that until this oak's filled back up," Ages chuckled. "There's gotta be something under that sleeve," Gadget says. "Oh really," Jonathan smirked as he held up that arm and pulled the sleeve up. There wasn't even an arm there; only his gloved hand floating in mid-air, giving a giggling Gadget the "I got your nose" routine. "Here, JB." Ages reached into his bags. "I brought your box." He brought out that looked like a cigar box covered in dark blue velvet decorated with stars. "This'll keep you two occupied for hours." Gadget took a look inside. Nothing. But Jonathan let a spark from his fingertips fall into the box, catching it on fire. He quickly closed the box and shook it. CHINKA-CHINKA-CHINKA!! The box is now fulled with a mouse-size kiddie magic set. His toys, he called it once. "Wow!" Ages chuckled as he stepped outside for some fresh air, wondering how the others are doing. _______________________________ "He has got to be in one of these abanded factorys." Chip said as he looked threw the bonuculers. "Zipper can look around for us?" Zipper squeaked yes and flew down towards the buildings. Dale sighed as he watched Zipper disapper. "Dale what is it?" "Just thinking..." Chip looked at Dale. "And I thought you didn't like to think." Dale looked at Chip. "Are we really going to leave the Rescue Rangers?" "Dale we have talked about this before..." Nimnul is sitting at his control panel. There's a flashing red light. He presses a button. A monitor displays the Ranger Wing. "It's them... I knew sooner or later they would come. Well I have a little something wating for them. Let the games begin! Hah haaa hahaaa..." Dark clouds from in the sky above and there is the sound of thunder. "Criky! Talk about your freak weather..." Monty said looking up. "There was nothing in the news today about rain. OH $#!* Nimnul must be using his weather maker!" Chip yelled out. "Dale we got to land now! Nimnul will barbaq us if we don't." Dale landed the plane. "Chip I think that out burst just blew away the PG rating to a PG13." Chip pulled Dale out of the plane. "Now's not the time..." CRACKLE.... "RUN!!..." BLAM!!!! The plane exploded into tiny flaming picese and the Rangers got blown away from the explosion. The Rangers moaned as they slow stood up. Dale looked at the small fire where the plane once was. "Gadget not going to like this..." Zipper zoomed to Monty and squeaked to him. "What's that Zipper... Criky!.." "What's he saying?" "He's found Nimnul and a bunch of Rats" The Rangers ran into the buliding. Shortly they ran into a big, very big room. The walls where covered in cages full of Rats. Dale looked around. "Talk about deja vu!." They see Nimnul sitting in a chair looked at some monitors. Chip looked. "Maybe we can free these Rats look for a lever." They quietly walked by Nimnul. Nimnul pressed a switch and turned around. A trap door opened and they feel in. "Hello so nice of you to drop by HAHAHAAAAA." Zipper flew away. Nimnul smiled as he saw the fly zoom away. "Come back soon!!!" Nimnul said. "Yes my plan is working perfectly. Once that new mouse arrives, he will give me his amulet for his friends and I will become the most powerful human alive!!! I will have my revenge on NIMH and the WORLD!!! HAHAHAHA!" ___________________ ". . . While I was out traveling the country seeking fame, fortune, and females--I used to date a lot trying to find the perfect someone whom I can call my 'Minnie.' I haven't gotten any luck, but I must say, I find you very much like the one I'm looking for." Gadget blushes. "Well, I was in the mid-west, where I found a young boy, oh about 13 years, trapped in a fantasy world of his own imagination. A rabbit costume much like this tiny one in my hand, held him in bondage inside that state of perpetual separation from reality. He crushes that tiny costume in his hand. ". . . and freed the young man back to reality. . ." When he opened his hand back out, a bird sprang out and took off for the outside, passing an oncoming Zipper coming back in. ". . . it took some doing, David was awfully shy. He eventually got the ability to reach out to the world when he got an America On-Line disk--eh?" "Zipper! What's going on? Where's Chip n' Dale n' Monty? Slow down will you? We can't hear." But the housefly's frantic hand signs were too rapid to dechiper. Jonathan cupped a hand under Zipper's chin and looked right into his eyes. As Jonathan spoke quietly at him, Zipper's rapid breathing slowed down, his eyelids began to relax, as did his limbs. He buzzing were softer and more legible now. After a while of this, Jonathan set Zipped gently down on the sofa. The housefly appeared sound asleep. He turned to Gadget and Ages with a stern look on his face. "They're in trouble. Nimnul's got them, as well as all the missing rats. Like I said, he wants to take credit for the NIMH formula." "Nimnul would try to take credit for the crack of dawn, if he could." "I wouldn't care less about that kooky professor's material success, or any other human, for that matter. All I'm concerned about is rescuing my friends and my people, much like my great-grandfather did." "I think it's the perfect time to beta test my new invention . . ." ___________________________ A pair of backpacks were tied to Jonathan and Gadget's backs. Each pack had a hose connected to an arcade game looking gun. "These air blasters spray out a quick hardening glue that can stop anyone in there tracks. Unless they untie there shoes.. That's just a small problem. It should buy us enough time." Gadget smiled. "Ready, JB?" Gadget started the engine on the Ranger Mobile. "It's show time." JB gave her a thumbs up. The Ranger Mobile wheelied out of its garage at top speed and zipped out to open road. "Rescue Rangers Away!!" The two mice shouted as they traveled side-by-side after Zipper, who was leading them to the building the others were trapped in. Mr. Ages walked out of the tree and waved his cane in the air. "Hey what about me!!" He grumbled and walked in the same direction. ----------------------------------------------------------------------------- FoxFire Studios and Company (MechTail waves) Presents A Firestorm FanFict "The Rangers of NIMH" Part 4 By Paul Lapansee, and David Gonterman Chip 'n' Dale's Rescue Rangers by The Walt Disney Company Any attempts of lawsuit from The Walt Disney Company *will* result in the immediate roboticization of their entire cartoon population, starting with Mickey!! Jonathan Brisby and The Firestorm Imprint by David Gonterman The Secret of NIMH a Don Bluth Production which is based upon the book Mrs. Frisby (Brisby) and the rats of NIMH by Robert C. O'Brien Watching the movie it helps you understand what is going on. Just a thought, I'm sure that David Gonterman gave "The Secret of NIMH" the Disney treatment with his own JB, but what do you think Don Bluth did to "Mrs. Frisby and the rats of NIMH?" Hmmm? Just another thought, why did Disney make a Duck Tails movie and not a Chip and Dale Rescue Ranger movie... will they ever? The show and comic may have end but they will live on in fan fict.... Clarice like Foxglove only appeared once in a Chip 'N' Dale original call Two Chips and a Miss (1951) man that is a long time ago... _________________________________ Chip awakes with a moan. "....oh my head what happened?" He looks around but his friends aren't there. Chip walks up to the edge of the cage and looks threw the bars. "DALE? MONTEREY?" "Hey mate over here." Monty waves behind a cage. "Chip? Chip I'm right here." Dale waves from another cage. "Are you guys ok?" Chip yelled out. "Besides this splitting headache. I'm fine." Monty said from his cage. Dale nodded also. Nimnul walks up and looks at Chip threw the bars. "Ah so the leader is awake." He looks at the other two cages. "And your friends to." Nimnul looks at Chip. "Your not going to stop me this time." Chip yelled out something which to Nimnul was just some squeaks. "Well to what ever you said thank you." Nimnul walks away from the cages. "I suppose your wondering what I am up to. If you haven't figured it out all ready. Well I'll tell you anyways..." He looks at the cages with rats. "All of you." "It started a long time ago. I was young I had hair and a job at The National Institute of Mental Health. NIMH as people call it today was having money problems. My instructor Dr. Smith who was the head of the team was under a lot of pressure. The team cut corners to save money and acquired animals for testing, most of which died. There was hope. We were on the verge of a break threw. Project "Get Smart." they called it....." Nimnul talked for a long time explain what happened. "When the heads found out about the missing rats. We where ordered to destroy all the animals and the formula itself. I knew that such a formula could help me change the world. So I tried to steal it." Nimnul face looked angry. "Those fouls! They locked me away in a Mental Institution. But soon I will have the formula and I'll show them ALL!." Nimnul pressed a button and a robot hand came down and grabbed a rat out of a cage. "Don't worry this won't hurt much." Another arm came down with a needle. _____________________________ The robot hand did its business with a very ungrateful rat and unceremoniously threw him in Chip's cage. "Damn that guy! I hope there's a cat big enough to eat him . . . Hey, aren't you Chip?" Another rat joined in: "Yeah, you're Chip, from the Rescue Rangers. Humph, looks like you need rescuing yourself dude." And a third: "Hey guys, check it: We've got a Disney Toon in our midst! Welcome to Bluth-land!! HAHAHAHAHAHAHA!!" By now Chip was feeling read in his face. A fourth rat were gossiping with Monty below. "No kidding? [Out loud] Hey guys!! These are the ones Jonathan was sent to!! JB's with them!!" "Jonathan Brisby's a Rescue Ranger?!? No wonder the show got canceled!!" "He's gonna bust us out!! Paaaaarty!! Woof-woof-woof-woof!!" "Excellent!!" A pair above chip played an air guitar like Bill and Ted. The first rat returned to Chip. "You guys are with the Briz?!" He gets into a worshipal kneel and shouts "We're not worthy!" like Wane's World. "Jonathan Brisby? Ain't he's supposed to be dead?" "I THOUGHT WE TOLD YOU TO KEEP THAT REJECT QUIET, BRUTIS?!?!" Chip asked, "Who was it you wanted quiet?" He was answered by a rousing chant ringing in his ears: "THROW OUT THE BRAIN!!" "THROW OUT THE BRAIN!!" "THROW OUT THE BRAIN!!" "THROW OUT THE BRAIN!!" Suddenly, the big headed Warner Brother's famous lab mouse is sent sailing the full length of the lab to the roar of the crowd. ______________________________ Nimnul gets beaned with him to even more shouts of approval to the rodents. "HEY!! How did *you* get out? I don't care if you *do* come from one of our competitors, you're going back in your--" It was at this point where Nimnul opened the door to the lab, only to find it taken over by the rats. One of them found an electronic organ and is playing it like it was in the Keil Civic Center. Four rats have made tazers out of pain-inducing equipment and were playing Doom in the maze, with Pinky dressed up as Mickey as the lone monster to hunt and harass. A white mouse that looked like Mickey himself after a dip in talc was giving the play by play while a line of several lady rats were doing cheerleader routines. And all around were almost 50 rats, mice, chipmunks, gerbils, and other various rodents running amuck like the Warner Brothers, breaking stuff, defacing notes, learning how to program the laptop, and in general hell-bent on making the life of their captor a living hell. Nimnul tried for one full minute in a futile attempt to return the rodents into their cages, but they already found out how the latch works and they get out almost as fast as they were put in. However, he didn't realize this folly until a rodent in a black leather jacket was giving him the Andrew Dice Clay Mother Goose routine on his nose. "Ye Cats. I underestimated these rodents. There so human-like, it's scary. Not to mention having developed wicked senses of humor. ALL RIGHT THAT'S ENOUGH! BACK IN YOU CAGES!" There was some booing and a rotten tomato hit Nimnul in the face. "Oooo... TALK ABOUT ASKING FOR IT!" Nimnul grabs his aging ray and aims it at Chip. "Oh right who wants to see what leader of the Rescue Rangers would look like a hundred years from now in human years." A rat yelled. "That would be cool " Another rat knocked him over. Like a very restless audience they started to quiet down and climb back into there cages. "Good stay that way. Once I take over the world. I send you rats to a remote island... after all I can't very well destroy what I helped create." Nimnul clean the control panel and sat down only to have a whoopee cushion go... _______________________________ The Ranger Mobile rounds a corner on it's rear wheels. "Hey Gadget," Jonathan nudges his partner's shoulder, "are you going to wheelie all the way there?" "Oops! Sorry." Gadget sets the front end down, finally, to show a building rising in the distance. Zipper was pointing to it. "There they are, Gadge!" "We've gotta be careful about this point. Professor Nimnul's got as many tricks up his sleeve as you do." "You told me. A weather making machine, hypnotic music boxes, more robotic hands than Doctor Octopus, what next? Giant stone creatures with wings? [Jonathan notices a huge shadow from above.] Speak of the devil . . ." Gadget looks up. "Oh him! That's no Gargoyle. That's David Xanatos, Disney's new go getter. He gets in a cool-looking Gargoyle-like suit of armor and fly around every other day. . .I think I can make one for myself . . ." ______________________________ Nimnul spots the Ranger Mobile from his binoculars about the time that Brain was shoved in the Doom maze in Minnie's polka dotted dress. It was about that time that three more rats joined in the hunt saying that they will punish the two heretics who commit copyright infringement most foul. Nimnul's prancing around at his discovery catches the notice of Chip, who temporarily peeled himself off a pretty rat in a string bikini to report. "I think Nimnul just spotted JB and Gadget!! They're coming!!" The mob cheers in gladness "J-B-J-B-J-B-J-B" Monterey turns to Brutis, who started a cheese raid party to climb Nimnul's fridge right behind his back. "I do hope they'll take their time. I don't want to miss the cheddar--yummers!!" Brutis nods in approval, while Dale can be seen with twins over his shoulder. One of the pair speaks to the other, "Y'know, Kei, I wonder if it was wise to leave such a hunk like JB with Gadget?" "Yeah, Yuri. I wouldn't be surprised if the two were found in bed together at least once up to now! " At that Dale shot upright with a "WHAAAAT?!?" but is promptly subdued into his original shrooming mood by the two tickling rats. "I could get to like this.." Nimnul shoos away enough rats to safely activate the weather making machine. The Dice Clay mouse went to give him the bird but Nimnul zapped him. "A PG-13 is enough!" ____________________________ Jonathan peers ahead with Gadget's homemade binoculars. "I just spotted a guy. Old, Bald, Short and Nutty. He's riding . . . a cloud?!" "That must be Nimnul. He knows we're coming, I guess." "Jeez, leave it to Disney to want a Nutty Professor with a Care Bear fetish. Wait a minute, he just pulled a leve . . ." Jonathan's voice was temporarily drowned out with a sound of a freight train from behind the two mice. "Twister!!" "Gun it Gadget!!" "Golly, they make one movie on tornados, and *everybody* wants in on the act!!" "RIGHT!! . . ." The tornado throws whatever it can grab at the tiny hair drier driven car. "Yeah, even The Walt Disney Company--LEFT!!" But Gadget shows off her excellent driving skills as she dodges the falling debris like an Indy champ, just as a Gargoyle-like suit of armor falls just inches behind the back bumper. The suit removes the helmet to expose a face too familiar to Star Trek fans, as Xanatos yells, "NIMNUL!! I'M GOING TO KICK YOUR @$$ FOR THIS!!" Gadget remains transfixed on getting to her destination alive. "I think the worst is over, JB." "Normally Gadget Love, I'd agree with you, but Nimnul icing up the driveway ahead of us is greatly influencing my judgement!!" One final falling chunk of debris--"So *that's* what happened to the ThunderZord"--shatters to the ground in front of the Ranger Mobile, just as the front wheels reach No Traction Land. "And me without an E-Ticket--WHOOOOOOAH!!" The car spins out of control, goes up some sheet metal like an air ramp, flies through a window and lands on Pinky and the Brain in the Doom maze. "Whoo!! Definitely an E-Ticket!!" _________________________________________ "Golly!" Gadget said as she looked at all the cages. Jonathan looked also. "So that's what happened to the missing Rats." "Gadget, JB over here!" Chip yelled from a cage. The two mice hopped out of the maze and climbed up to Chip. "Chip are you all right." Gadget asked. "I'm fine and so is the rest of us." He said. Jonathan looked at him. "Not to worry we'll get you out of here." Nimnul saw Jonathan when he entered the lab and ran for the robot hand machine. "JB LOOK OUT!" Chip yelled. Jonathan and Gadget sees the approaching robot hands and starts firing with their glue guns. Within minutes, the entire robotic hand machine was rendered inert by the glue clogging up the joints. Unfortunately they haven't noticed two human hands from behind. Nimnul grabs Jonathan with his chubby hand, and brings him up to his face. Jonathan was squirming and cussing him out in mouse squeaks. "Jeez, young man, such language," Nimnul scolds him. "You'll never make it into Disney with a mouth like that!" Jonathan responds by biting the index finger. "Ow!! Why you little!!" That made Nimnul ease his grip, and JB squirms out of his hand. He stands on Nimnul's fist in a fighting stance, his amulet glowing bright red. "THAT STONE AGAIN!! You're the mouse I've seen before!! Give it to me!!" Nimnul grabs Jonathan in his fist. "I'll give it to you, all right . . ." But the amulet's power sears into the hand, setting it on fire. Naturally, the professor is screaming in pain. He lets Jonathan go, a good three feet in the air. Gadget screams as she sees him fall. Jonathan ignites a smoke bomb below him and falls into it. The smoke spills into the floor and disperses, not revealing if anyone has hit the ground. Gadget races into the fog to find the body, but her groping around wasn't successful. Until she finds her lips caress a warn nose. Almost instantly her face feels that warm glow. "Why Gadget Love, I didn't suspect you to be *this* romantic." She falls into her arms, relieved that he's still alive, as the fog disperse to reveal the two. ------------------------------------------------- The was kissing noises from Dale's cage. The fog clears and Dale is seen covered in lip stick. "Boy and I always thought Foxglove was the only one who wanted a piece of me." Chip on the other hand was trying to get the rat off of him so he could see what just happened with Gadget and JB. Nimnul coughed in the smoke as he searched for something. The smoke cleared and he turned to see. All the rats, mice and chipmunks are standing in a army fashion. In front of them was JB and the Rescue Rangers leading. JB's amulet glows like a spotlight on the professor. Strangely, the mouse can now be heard speaking human English. "Professor Norton Nimnul, my name is Jonathan Brisby a descendent of Jonathan Brisby from NIMH. And in the name of the RATS we will punish you." Everybody looked at him, as one large drop of sweat falls off his cheek. "I.. I couldn't think of anything else." Nimnul took one look at Jonathan and was rolling on the floor in laughter. "Get a load of this, A hot shot rookie mouse thinks he can take out an established Disney Character, and with what? A line from some Japanimation show and an over-glorified hot glue gun?!" PHUT-PHUT!! "Weeeell, we can tryyyyyy..." Nimnul eyeglasses were covered with glue. At first he laughs, despite being blinded. "If you intend to make it an 'R,' mouse, you meed to pack more than just glue . . . now where's that CD to wreck the whole city and every mouse in it to--WHOOOOAAA!!" Nimnul just slipped on the thousands of red balls that Jonathan was making to appear machine-gun style. As he was falling, his pants were ripped off him by a well-placed hook. He was wearing heart-dotted boxers underneath, but . . . "Whoa!!" Jonathan shouts. "We almost had a NC-17 there!! Who-whooo!! I think we should quit before we *really* get into trouble!!" With the last bit of determination he had left, he manages to grab the one remaining vial of plasma by-product and starts to run out of the lab with it and his life. "Behold The Secret Of NIMH and now it's MINE!!!--OOOFFF!!" That's when he ran into a brick wall, in the form of a Commander Riker look-alike in a Gargoyle suit walks in the lab, not looking happy in the least. Nimnul was in shock. "whoa . . . it's Xannie . . . heh-heh." Jonathan started his Bevis and Butthead impression. "Xannie's cool . . . Can I be in your gang? huh-huh-huh . . ." Xanatos grabbed the short professor and grabbed the vial from his hand and looked at it. "Correction the secret is now the property of Xanatos Enterprises. I did buy out NIMH a long time ago but I was short of this one prize. Also there is the small madder of the my cracked windshield in which your tornado caused. "Oh gosh . . . I'm sorry, Mr. Xanatos . . . sir . . ." "heh-heh-heh huh-huh," Jonathan continued his Bevis and Butthead impersonation. "You want me to kick his tail for you, sir?" "No, rodent." Oblivious to the fact that he just addressed a mouse, Xanatos cracks his knuckles. "That won't be necessary." He then proceeds to take Nimnul aside to beat the living snot out of him as the lab subjects walk unchallenged out the front door and back to their free lives. Off in the distance, Brooklyn can be seen in his part-time job as a night-time aerial photographer for the news. He videotapes Xanatos dragging this short scientist out and performing what the Gargoyle thinks is a Killer Instinct 2 Ultimate Combo... Xanatos picked up the professor. "You now work for me UNDERSTAND!" The battered professor nodes. "Is this a promotion Sir?" "Considering your talents where wasted on trying to rule the world when I all ready do. Yes..." Xanatos jet packs kick in and he flies away carrying Professor Nimnul by the foot who screams in the air. Pinky and The Brain look around. "There gone, now's are chance to get back to the lab and prepare for tomorrow night." Pinky looks at him. "And I thought we where going to Disney land." "No Pinky, there too powerful. Especially that Jonathan Brisby." "But he's not a Disney Toon, Brain." "No matter. We must plan quickly before they buy not only him, but eventually the rest of the world." ___________________________ "What?" Chip said as he cared his lugged to the door. Mr. Ages smiled. "I spiked the vial. Nimnul got the naturalized formula instead, its worthless. I used Gadget's blood as the final ingredient and it worked." "Golly that's means now we can recreate the formula for others and make the world a better place for animals." Gadget said looking at Jonathan who had his arm around her. Jonathan smiled. "In time Gadget love." Chip looked around. "Come on Dale are ride will be here soon. "I'll be out in a minute Chip." Dale grabs the last of his comics and stuffs them into his lugged. He finds a picture of Foxglove signed by her and looks at it for a short time. Dale turns it over and stuffs it with the rest of his things. Monty is at the door and helps Dale carry his things. "Crikey Dale what do you got in here the whole fridge." He carried it to the door. A seagull lands on the branch. There's a knock at the door a Chip opens it. Chip and Dales eyes widen. "Clarice!!" A female chipmunk around there age stands there smiling she fully dressed with a R.A.S. logo on her shirt. "Hello boys long time no see." "Come in." Chip and Dale almost trip over themselves letting her in. "Chip, Dale you know her?" Gadget asked curiously. "She is an old friend Gadget. Clarice use to be a nightclub singer. We use to hang out together." Chip looked at Clarice. "So this is where you ended up at. I didn't know you joined the Rescue Aid Society." "I have always been with RAS, that other job as just for spare money. When I heard that you guys where accepted, I wanted to be the one to help you out. We're going to be a team." She smiled. "Great, Clarice! I can't wait to get started." Dale said giving her a wink. Chip saw that a stood in front of him smiling at Clarice. Jonathan rolled his eyes as he watched them. Gadget whispered in his ear and Jonathan laughed. Monty helped with the luggage and tied it to the seagull. "Well that's the last of it mates." Chip and Dale shook the hands of the Rangers (Minus 2 but Plus 1) and walked up to Gadget. "Gadget. Dale and I want to say some before we go." "Ya.." Dale sniffed. "We both love you Gadget and we are sorry for fighting over you." Chip said. Gadget had tears in her eyes and hugged them both. "I know... I want to give you something before you go." Gadget said. Chip and Dale looked at each other. Gadget grabbed Dale and kissed him for a short time. She then kissed Chip. "Take care of your selves and remember to visit." "We will." The chipmunks hoped on the seagull and waved as it took off. Chip and Dale watched the tree get smaller as they flew away. Gadget looked at Jonathan holding both paws. "Jonathan are you going to stay after all we are short handed now?" "Gadget's right mate. You'd make one heck of a Rescue Ranger with your magic." Monty slapped him on the back. Jonathan looked at them. "All these years I have been looking for a place that I could call home..." He looked at the tree. "And I believe I have found it." "Well then mate welcome to the Rescue Rangers." Mr. Ages walked out carrying his medical bag. "Well it looks like my job is done here." "Golly your leaving. We where hoping you would stay." Gadget said. "Thanks for the offer Gadget but the Rats need me. I'll be seeing you JB. You know where to find me if you need me." Mr. Ages said. "Yes I do old friend and take care." JB shook his paw. "Watch your self with that amulet you hear." Mr. Ages said as he left. Jonathan waved and look back at Gadget. "Well I guess there is only one thing left to say guys." They came together. "RESCUE RANGERS AWAY!!!" ---------- A fox sits in the park looking at the ranger tree. A gray squirrel sits on his back. "Well what do you think Davey?" The fox looks up. "I think our creators have just committed copyright infringement in the first degree. I LIKE IT!" "Well it's a tough job but somebody has to do it. Some things never die they only get better." The squirrel smiled. "COMPUTER RL SLIDE." There was a beep and the two disappeared in a flash. The End or is it? ---------------------------------------------------------------------------- The editors say in this story. Well I couldn't have done with out David's help. Most of the screwy parts are his. Hope you enjoyed reading it after all what the point in typing a story if no one reads it. Stay tooned for more... ;) [DAVID THIS IS YOUR PART.] Okay, Okay . . . People all along were talking about Rangers of NIMH and how much of a crossover it is. That exactly what the entirety of Firestorm is: A huge--and I do mean *HUGE*--crossover sweeping the entire--and I do mean *entire*; from "Steamboat Willie" to "The Hunchback of Notre Dame"--Walt Disney universe. Think of it as turning the Magic Kingdom into its own hybrid universe a la Anagram (The DC-Marvel hybrid made just recently) with every film going on at once!! The phrase "Anything Can Happen" will be an understatement when you'll find Ariel, Jasmine, Pocahontas, Belle, and that new Gypsy maiden from 'Hunchback' in the same room together!! Characters from different movies go off against one another (Example: Captain John Smith vs. Mozenrath) or even team up!! (Another Example: Aladdin and The Beast) The possibilities will be infinite, as long as there are writers desiring to tackle this "Disney Magic with an Attitude" and as long as The Walt Disney Company has enough sense of humor not to sue me at the drop of a pin but sit back and watch the fun unfold.
