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.
