Chapter 1: Opening/You Got A Friend in Me

Chapter Text

As soon as everyone was seated, even Victor & Carla Delgado, the FilmMaster, sitting on his Free Reign Announcement seat, made his announcement.

"I guess you've been refueled and are ready to watch our next cinematic film." he said to the crowd.

"Si." said Bruno. "What film are we watching now?" he asked.

"Well," the FilmMaster said, "as i said after the last movie, this one will be about friendship, trust, working together, and not letting jealousy overcome you."

"And what's the name of the film?" asked Ratchet.

"Toy Story." said the FilmMaster.

All the Toy Story franchise characters looked up. "So is this film based on us?" asked Woody.

"Yes, yes it is." the FilmMaster said. "It's about toys that come to life when their owners aren't around."

"I can't imagine anything more extrano than this." said Victor Delgado to his daughter, Carla, who nodded.

[BTW, IF YOU'RE WONDERING ABOUT VICTOR & CARLA DELGADO KNOWING ABOUT THE DOGS AND TOYS TALKING, THE FILMMASTER MADE THEIR MINDS STAY SANE SO THEY WON'T GO LOOPY WHEN HE BROUGHT THEM TO HIS PLACE.]

"This film was one of the best films in it's heyday, around 1995." the FilmMaster said.

"That is a long time ago." said Clank.

"Well, Yeah." the FilmMaster said. "Way before there were modern devices in the world."

The audience looked amazed.

"Ok." said the FilmMaster. "Let's begin the movie."

With that, he activated the Toy Story Film, which soon played on the projector. And once again, all the lights in the theater dimmed down, and he flew his seat to be above the crowd.

"Showtime." said the FilmMaster, as the film began.

[The film starts with the opening titles]

(A row of moving boxes lie on the floor of a bedroom. They are drawn up in crayon to look like a miniature Western town. The bedroom is lined with cloud wallpaper, giving the impression of sky. One of the boxes has a children's illustrated "Wanted $50 bzillion Reward" poster of a Mr. Potato Head taped to it.]

"What a nice Western town," said Mitchell. "Aside from the fact it's crudely made from cardboard boxes and some of the signs are misspelt, it's very nice."

[A Mr. Potato Head doll is suddenly set in front of the poster. The voiceover of Andy, a young boy, can be heard acting out all the voices of the scene.)

Mr. Potato Head: (voice portrayed by Andy): Alright, everyone, this is a stick-up! Don't anybody move!

[Other toys in the room, Bo Peep among them, are posed to look as if they're putting their arms up in surrender]

Everyone was in awestruck at the scene before them, the Toy Story cast most of all. ANd yes, that included the ones that weren't in the first Toy Story film [Jessie, Bullseye, Lotso, Prospector, Forky and Mrs Potato Head.], to say the least.

Mr. Potato Head: (voice portrayed by Andy): Now empty that safe!

[Andy shakes Hamm, a toy piggy bank, and coins fall out onto the floor]

Mr. Potato Head: (voice portrayed by Andy): Whoo-hoo-hoo! Money, money, money!

[He makes the toy kiss the coins]

"Gross." Disgust said. "I can't believe he's kissing dirty coins."

Bo Peep: (voice portrayed by Andy): Stop it! Stop it, you mean old potato!

The cast began to snicker at how Andy portrayed Bo Peep's voice.

Mr. Potato Head: (voice portrayed by Andy): Quiet, Bo Peep! Or your sheep get run over!

[The camera turns to show Bo's sheep, Billy, Goat, and Gruff, standing on a toy race car track]

"It's kinda creepy that those sheep have 3 heads on one body." Becky said.

"Well, we're used to the creepy, Becks." said Mitchell.

Billy, Goat, and Gruff (voice portrayed by Andy): Help! Baa! Help us!

Everyone [minus the FilmMaster] gasped. Of course, they knew this was only a pretend scenario, but even so, it felt real all the same.

Bo Peep (voice portrayed by Andy): Oh, no! Not my sheep! Somebody do something!

(At that moment, Woody, a pull-string doll cowboy, enters into the scene opposite the inanimate spud.]

"Wow! That must be you, Woody!" said Jessie.

"Yeah, Jessie, it was." said Woody. 

"How come that pathetic cowgirl is saying that?" snapped Prince Charming. "She wasn't even in the first movie!"

The FilmMaster immediately responded by electrocuting the prince.

[Andy's hand pulls on the ring in the center of Woody's back.)

Woody: [voice box]; Reach for the sky!

Mr. Potato Head: (voice portrayed by Andy): Oh, no! Sheriff Woody!

Woody: (voice portrayed by Andy): I'm here to stop you, One-Eyed Bart!

[Andy removes one of Mr. Potato Head's eyes]

Mr. Potato Head: (voice portrayed by Andy): D'oh! How'd you know it was me?!

"I am never gonna unsee that." said Bruno.

Woody: (voice portrayed by Andy): Are you gonna come quietly?

Mr. Potato Head: (voice portrayed by Andy): You can't touch me, Sheriff! I've brought my attack dog, with a built-in forcefield! [He puts a toy dog with a spring in his middle, Slinky Dog, in front of Mr. Potato Head.]

Woody: (voice portrayed by Andy): Well, I brought my dinosaur, who eats forcefield dogs!

[He gets out a green tyrannosaurus toy, called Rex. He moves Rex next to Slinky]

Rex: (voice portrayed by Andy): Arr rawr rawr!

Slinky: (voice portrayed by Andy): Yipe, yipe-yipe-yipe! [is dragged away by Andy.]

The audience were a bit surprised by the scene with the animals; Antonio most of all, was quite scared.

(Andy picks up Mr. Potato Head and places him in a baby crib, with a cardboard sign taped to the bars with the word "JAIL" written in crayon.)

Woody: (voice portrayed by Andy): You're goin’ to jail, Bart. Say goodbye to the wife and Tater Tots.

(Andy's 1-year-old sister, Molly, crawls over and picks up Mr. Potato Head. She sucks on him for a beat then proceeds to pound the toy repeatedly against the rail of her crib, forcing some of his parts loose.]

"I'm guessing the baby's the prison warden, right?" said Megamind, remembering HIS life being in prison with a stern warden. 

"Yep." said Minion.

"Heck, if ALL guardias de prisión were like Molly, I bet the prisioneros would be committing suicide right now." Camilo joked.

"CAMILO!!!" The rest of the Madrigals all snapped angrily.

Camilo immediately shrank into his seat.

[Andy picks up Woody off the floor.)

Andy: You saved the day again, Woody.

Woody: [voice box]; You're my favourite deputy!

[The title "Toy Story" appears as the song "You've Got a Friend in Me" starts playing]

You've got a friend in me
You've got a friend in me

(Andy turns the Western town boxes around to reveal cows drawn on the other side.)

Andy: C'mon, let's wrangle up the cattle.

When the road looks rough ahead
And you're miles and miles from your nice, warm bed

[using a lasso made out of a jump rope, he lassos a box. The title "A Pixar Production" appears as he then kicks a box out of his way]

"What's a 'Pixar', anyway?" asked Agustin.

"Pixar is the name of the company that worked with Disney to make Toy Story, and many other Pixar movies." the FilmMaster said.

"Cool." said Camilo.

Andy: Round 'em up, cowboy!

Just remember what your old pal said
Boy, you've got a friend in me

[Andy puts Woody on RC, a radio controlled car, and steers them into a box. The title "Executive Producers Edwin Catmull and Steve Jobs" appears on screen]

Andy: Yee-haw!

Yeah, you've got a friend in me

[Andy Picks Woody up and high-fives him]

Andy: Hey, cowboy!

"Quick question," said Mirabel to the FilmMaster, "who is 'Steve Jobs'?"

"Is he related to Captain Qwark?" Ratchet said, making a joke. Clank cleared his throat, which made Ratchet shut up.

"Steve Jobs was an American businessman, inventor, and investor best known for co-founding the technology company Apple Inc." the FilmMaster stated. "He was also the founder of NeXT and chairman and majority shareholder of Pixar. He was a pioneer of the personal computer revolution of the 1970s and 1980s, along with his early business partner and fellow Apple co-founder Steve Wozniak."

"Wow!" Everyone said.

"I'm confused." Kit said. "How can an apple be part of a computer company?"

"It's the name of the company that makes them." The FilmMaster said.

"Ahhh." Kit said. 

With that in mind, the FilmMaster started the film back up again.

[Cut to Woody walking through a desert, as the opening credits continue. In reality, he is seen riding on Andy's back in front of a desert painting, with Andy pretending he's a horse]

Some other folks might be a little bit smarter than I am
Big and stronger too

Andy: Come on, Woody!

(Andy places Woody on the top of the stairwell bannister allowing the doll to slide downstairs. Andy races ahead and catches him at the bottom, and hugs him. They then race into the living room.)

Maybe
But none of them will ever love you
The way I do
It's me and you, boy

[In the living room, Andy and Woody get into La-Z-Boy recliner chair and spin around and around.)

And as the years go by...

Andy: Whoa!

The walls of the auditorium changed to reflect the spinning room as the above part of the film sounded.

Our friendship will never die
You’re gonna see it's our destiny...

[The chair slows to a stop. Andy then uses (Andy uses the recliner's footrest as a catapult. Andy flings Woody across the room.)

"Oh that is so totally unsafe." Fear muttered.

You've got a friend in me

Andy: Alright!

[Woody Lands on the sofa.]

Yeah, you've got a friend in me

Andy: Score!

[Woody lies down on the sofa]

You got a friend in me!

[As the song ends, Andy goes by Woody to somewhere off-screen]

Andy: [offscreen] Wow! Cool!

Woman: [offscreen] What do you think?

Andy: [offscreen] Oh, this looks great, Mom!

Woman: [Off screen; laughs] Okay, birthday boy.

[View of the living room, where a woman, Andy's thirty-eight-year-old mom, has just finished decorating the area with streamers and balloons. A banner is draped across the archway. It reads: "Happy Birthday Andy".)

Everyone was in awe at the decorations. "Wow!" said Envy. "I LOVE birthdays!"

"So did we, Envy!" Joy said excitedly. "Oh how exciting it is!!"

"Yeah, so do we." said Thomas. "I remember the birthday parties me and my friends help out with on Sodor."

The Madrigals seemed very intrigued with the birthday decorations and atmosphere. Almost a while or so, it made them realize how important birthdays were to them - every year on their 5th birthday, the Madrigals would get a gift at their gift ceremony, which was kinda like a superpower.

Mirabel on the other hand, seemed less enthusiastic about it. On her 5th birthday, at her gift ceremony, her door disappeared, meaning she didn't have a gift like her family. And most of the time, she never had her family spend time with her, even especially remembering her birthday parties.

"At least he's getting a birthday party." she sighed. The Madrigals, upon hearing this, seemed to feel kinda guilty and pitiful of Mirabel. They knew it was hard for them to be reminded, but they understood that they'd never really given Mirabel better treatment over the years since her failed gift ceremony, save for Antonio and Bruno [despite the fact he'd spent 10 years of his life living in the walls of Casita].

Some characters, like Ratchet, kinda understood the pain Mirabel went through.

"To be honest, Mirabel, I've never really celebrated my birthday either." he said.

He knew all his life had been living solo on Veldin, working on ships and fixing them, right till he met Clank, and his life suddenly changed.

"Neither have I." Rivet said. 

Then she and Ratchet looked at each other. 

"Wow." They both said - it seemed they had more in common than they realized.

It Made Mirabel feel just a bit better.

Andy: We saw it at the store, I asked you for it! Wow, look at that! That's so- Oh, my gosh, you got-

Andy's Mom: I hope I have enough places. One, two.... Four.... Yeah, I think that's gonna be enough.

Andy: Can we leave this up until we move?

Andy's Mom: Well, sure. We can leave it up.

Andy: Yeah!

"Espara, time out!" said Agustin.

The FilmMaster stopped the film. "Yes, Agustin?" he asked.

"Why are they celebrating his birthday now?" Agustin asked.

"In this film," the FilmMaster said, "They're celebrating his birthday now because in exactly 1 week, Andy and his family will move house."

"Oh, I see." said Agustin.

"That makes sense." Julieta agreed.

"We know the feeling of moving too well." Fear said. "Riley's dad moved us from Minnesota to San Francisco."

"Wow." Agustin said. "What is 'San Francisco' like anyway?" he asked.

"We'll ask later." said Joy.

"Oh, uh I got a question." Becky said suddenly. "Isn't Andy's father supposed to be with the family?"

"Apparently, no." said the FilmMaster. "Andy's dad's not in the Toy Story film series at all."

"He's not?" everyone said.

"Nope." The FilmMaster said.

"Why?" asked Sadness.

"Well," the FilmMaster said, "the reason is unexplained, but there are many theoretical reasons why he's not there; I mean, he coulda died, or divorced, or many reasons way before Andy was born, so Andy would never really have known his father. Those things are called 'headcanons'." 

"Headcanons?" Kit said, puzzled. "How can a head have a cannon in it?"

"No, Kit," the FilmMaster said. "That's not what I meant. It really... means...." He sighed. "You know what, forget it. I'll explain later. Let's get back to the movie."

he started the film up again.

Andy's Mom: Now go get Molly; Your friends are gonna be here any minute.

Andy: OK. [grabs Woody] It's party time, Woody! [runs upstairs] Yeehaw!

(Andy and Woody enter Andy's room. Molly is still banging Mr. Potato Head against her crib railing. Andy tips Woody's hat at her.)

Andy: Howdy, little lady.

[Molly squeals happily, dropping Mr Potato Head. Andy pulls Woody's string and puts Woody onto the bed.

Woody: [voice box]; Somebody's poisoned the waterhole!

Disgust looked shocked. "Ugh, gross. Nothing worse than poison," she scoffed. She knew her job in Riley's mind was to keep Riley from being poisoned; physically, socially, and from broccoli.

[Andy lifts Molly out of her crib and carries her downstairs]

Andy: Come on, Molly. Oh, you're getting heavy. [to Woody, off screen] See you later, Woody!

[The door shuts, and the title "Directed by John Lasseter" appears and fades, bringing the opening credits to an end. We zoom in on Woody. Suddenly, without warning, Woody's eyes come to life. The cowboy doll sits up, his expression changing from a smile to worry.)]

Woody: Pull my string, the birthday party's today?!

The FIlmMaster paused the film. 

"Wow." Julieta said. "I can't believe a toy like him came to life."

"The toys are alive?!" said Carla Delgado, quite gobsmacked at what she had seen.

"Yes, Carla; the toys are alive." said the FilmMaster, "but only when the humans aren't around."

"I bet it'd be Bastante malo if a human DID see toys actually coming to life, wouldn't it." Bruno said. 

"Yes, yes it would." said the FilmMaster.

Chapter 2: Staff Meeting

Chapter Text

"OK." The FilmMaster said, "I hope you're enjoying this movie."

The audience agreed, especially Victor & Carla [despite not being present for the showing of Thomas & the Magic Railroad].

"Good." said the FilmMaster. "Now, I hope you won't be weirded out by the other toys coming to life in this movie."

"Well," said Mirabel, "we saw one jugete alive."

"Huh?" said the other characters, all puzzled by what Mirabel said.

"'Jugete' is Spanish for ''toy'." the FilmMaster said. "I can speak many languages, and even watch the films in those languages too."

"Wow." said Ratchet. "That is pretty impressive. I once saw a mystic move a rock with his mind once on Grelbin."

"Whoa." Luisa said. "I sure wish we had a familia member with that power."

"OK," the FilmMaster said, getting their attention, "Let's get back to the film." 

He started the film up again, not before he rewound it a bit, to remind everyone that Woody was alive when the kids weren't around.

Woody: Pull my string, the birthday party's today?!

"Cool." said Scamp.

The FilmMaster continued the film from that point on.

Woody: Okay, everybody, coast is clear!

[Toys emerge from the toy box, the closet, the shelves, etc... in a flurry of activity. RC comes out from the closet, Lenny, a wind-up walking binoculars toy walks from between the bookshelf. A toy called Mr Shark pops out of the toy box. Mr. Potato Head, his body parts strewn across the floor, sits himself upright and begins to re-assemble himself.)

Mr. Potato Head: Ages 3 and up. It's on my box. Ages 3 and up. I'm not supposed to be babysitting Princess Drool.

[RC drives out of the closet, and the toys start moving.]

"Wow." said Templeton. "They'd be perfect staff for my magical chocolate factory, cause they're persons of restricted height."

"That's just something you saw in a film." said Mitchell.

"That's what I told him!" Becky said. "It's 'Charlie & the Chocolate Factory'!"

Templeton sniggered. "Why would I name my factory after someone named Charlie? That's absurd! I also have proposals for Templeton's Great Glass Elevator Company, and a farm that will grow giant peaches."

"All Roald Dahl!" Becky yelled.

"I don't want to make rolled dolls! I'm a boy!" Templeton said.

"You know," Victor Delgado said, "a granja where melocotones gigantes grows sounds amazing to me."

"Don't encourage him." said Becky.

[The Little Tikes Firetruck comes alive and heads off, whilst some Little Tikes jump onto it. Hamm flips a penny into his coin slot. Potato Head walks up to him, his back turned.]

Mr. Potato Head: Hey, Hamm. [turns round] Look, I'm Picasso! [All his facial pieces are in the wrong slots.)

The audience chuckled slightly at that, even the villains.

Hamm: I don't get it. [he walks off]

"Didn't get it then, still don't get it now." Hamm said.

Mr. Potato Head: You uncultured swine! *to someone o.s.* What are you looking' at, ya hockey puck?

(Mr. Potato Head walks past, revealing a hockey puck toy with arms and legs. The hockey puck shrugs, as if to say, 'I dunno.']

"So that's the hockey puck." Hugh said. He laughed. "You gotta admit, that was pretty funny."

[As the toys go around talking and moving, Woody talks to Sarge, a green soldier toy with his feet joined together with green plastic.]

Woody: Hey, Sarge, have you seen Slinky?

Sarge: Sir! No, sir!

Woody: OK. Hey, thank you. At ease.

[He jumps down from the bed and looks around]

Woody: Hey, uh, Slinky?

[Slinky appears, pushing a checkerboard from under the bed]

Slinky: Right here, Woody. And I'm red this time.

Woody: No, Slink.....

Slinky: Oh, well, all right; You can be red if you want.

Woody: N-Not now, Slink. I got some bad news.

Slinky: [shouts] Bad news?!

Woody: [holds Slinky's mouth shut] Shhh!

[The toys stop and look at Woody, and Slinky]

"That was pretty subtle." said Isabela.

Woody: Just gather everyone up for a staff meeting and be happy.

Slinky: Got it.

Woody: [firm] Be happy.

[Slinky runs off laughing. Woody passes by a toy snake and a toy robot] 

Woody: Staff meeting, everybody! Snake, Robot, podium duty.

[Snake hides under the bed, and Robot grabs him and drags him along.]

"Sounds brutal." said Camilo.

"Well, there were times me and your papa dragged you by your ear." said Pepa sternly.

"Si, point taken." Camilo said quickly.

[An Etch-a-Sketch walks past Woody who stops in a Western battle way]

Woody: Hey, Etch. Draw!

[They draw with Etch sketching a picture of a gun]

Woody: Oh! Got me again. Etch, you've been workin’ on that draw. Fastest knobs in the West.

"Sounds kinda inappropriate for a kids' movie, when you say it out loud, huh." Donkey said.

[Slinky passes by some toys]

Slinky: Got a staff meeting you guys. Come on. Let's go.

[The toys follow Slinky while Woody looks around for something. Behind him, Snake & Robot build the podium]

Woody: Now, where is that... [notices] Oh. [goes up to a doodle pad on the floor] Hey, who moved my doodle pad way over here?

[Then Rex jumps up and roars at Woody]

Rex: [loudly] Roaaaaar!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!

Lots of the audience jumped and cowered in fear. Antonio of course, cowered in fear.

Woody: [unimpressed] How're you doin', Rex?

Rex: [stops roaring, calmly] Were you scared? Tell me honestly.

Woody: I was close to being scared that time. 

[He walks away with Rex walking after him] 

Rex: Oh, I'm going for fearsome here, but I just don't feel it. I think I'm just coming off as annoying.

"I can think of a few annoyances." Ratchet said, remembering Captain Qwark, and of how obnoxious he could be, especially when he worked for the villains that he and Clank occasionally had to stop.

[Woody is grabbed by a crook and pulled towards Bo Peep]

"Ay dios mio, that's painful." Julieta said with a wince.

Woody: [coughs] Ow! Oh, hi, Bo. Hi.

Bo Peep: I wanted to thank you, Woody, for saving my flock.

"I think this is love." said Dolores. She of course, remembered that she''d had a crush on Mariano, but she was too shy and quiet to admit it, especially to her family, even more so when her cousin Isabela was forced to marry him in a 'proposed marriage'.

Woody: Oh, hey, it was, uh, nothin'.

Bo Peep: [sweetly yet flirtatiously] What do you say I get someone else to watch the sheep tonight?

Woody: [giggling sheepishly] Oh, yeah! [mutters]

"Oh, gross." Dr Neo Cortex said. "Get a room."

The FilmMaster immediately responded by electrocuting him. Syndrome snickered a little, and the FilmMaster electrocuted Syndrome too.

Bo Peep: Remember, [walks off past some blocks] I'm just a couple of blocks away.

"That's kinda funny." said Mitchell.

"Why?" asked Mirabel.

"Well," Mitchell said, "As Bo left, she walked by some building blocks. So that's what it means by 'just a couple of blocks away'."

[Slinky is organising the toys for the meeting.]

Slinky: Come on, come on. Smaller toys up front.

[The Troikas, a set of five plastic mute egg-shaped toys in the style of a Russian Matryoshka doll painted like five animals: dog (largest), cat (second largest), duck (medium), fish (second smallest) and ladybug (smallest), all line up, hopping out of each other's mouths.]

Slinky: Hey, Woody, come on.

"Guess it must be time for the staff meeting," said Anxiety.

"Correctamundo, Anx." the FilmMaster said.

[Woody snaps outta his lovestruck trance and heads to the podium, as the toys all gather. He stands on the podium. Mike, a speaker with a microphone attached, clears his throat to get Woody's attention and held out his microphone]

Woody: Oh, thanks, Mike. [He picks up the microphone] OK..... [feedback sounds] Whoa, whoa. Step back.

Everyone in the auditorium cringed at the feedback. Dolores covered her ears, even though the FilmMaster had disabled her gift of hearing.

Hamm: [offscreen] For crying out loud.

[Mike steps back until the feedback fades away]

Woody: Thank you. (blows into the microphone) Hello? Check. That better? Great. Everybody hear me? Up on the shelf, can you hear me? Great.

[Cut to some toys on the desk - a woman doll, a yellow duck and a pink bear. The pink bear waves. Cut back to Woody]

Woody: OK, first item today; Uh... oh, yeah. Has everyone picked a moving buddy?

[The toys are surprised]

Rex: What?

Hamm: [listening from the shelf he's standing on] Moving buddy? You can't be serious.

"Oh, he's serious," said Alma, remembering she used to give meetings with her family and the village about important things, like proposal dinners and gift ceremonies.

Rex: I didn't know we were supposed to have one already.

Mr Potato Head: (waving his arm out of it's socket) Do we have to hold hands?

[The toys laugh at this comment]

Mitchell laughed at this, and so did Camilo, Mirabel, Anger, and Donkey.

Woody: Oh yeah, you guys think this is a big joke. We've only got 1 week left before the move. I don't want any toys left behind. A moving buddy; If you don't have one, get one! [checking the pad] Alright, next. Uh, oh, yes. Tuesday night's Plastic Corrosion Awareness Meeting was, I think, a big success. And we wanna thank Mr. Spell for putting that on for us. Thank you, Mr. Spell.

Mr Spell: [electronic voice] You're welcome.

Woody: OK. Uh, oh, yes; [looks at something on the pad] One, uh, minor note here. (reads quietly) Andy's birthday party has been moved to today.

[Suddenly, everyone looks panicked.]

Rex: What do you mean, the party's today?! His birthday's not till next week!

Hamm: What's going on down there?! Is his mom losing her marbles?!

Woody: (off microphone; to Hamm) Well, obviously, she wanted to have the party before the move.

"Si, that's what Señor FilmMaster told us earlier," Agustin said. 

"It makes sense that it's not his birthday today," said Jimmy, "but it's better than opening presents on the moving truck."

"No spoilers, please, Jimmy Neutron!" the FilmMaster snapped.

"Sorry." said Jimmy.

Woody: (on microphone; to the other toys) I'm not worried, you shouldn't be worried.

Mr Potato Head: [pushing through the toys] Of course, Woody ain't worried! He's been Andy's favourite since kindergarten!

Slinky: Hey, hey. Come on, Potato Head.

[Mr Potato Head looks at Mr Spell, pointing at Slinky's butt then pull out his mouth and tap his butt with it, miming that Slinky is buttkissing, whilst Mr Spell laughs.]

Some of the women in the crowd looked quite gobsmacked at such an action that Mr Potato Head was doing. Pepa hid Antonio's eyes.

Mitchell snickered at it for a while. "Mitchell!" snapped Becky, offended.

Mrs Potato Head glared at her husband, who shrugged innocently.

Slinky: If Woody says it's all right, then, well, darn it, it's good enough for me. Woody has never steered us wrong before.

Woody: Come on, guys. Every Christmas and birthday, we go through this.

"That's how long they've been having meetings?" said Percy.

"Yes." said Mitchell, "Every Christmas and birthday since he's been born."

Rex: [worried] But what if Andy gets another dinosaur? A mean one? I just don't think I could take that kind of rejection!

Woody: Hey, listen, no one's getting replaced. This is Andy we're talking about. [steps down from the podium and walks toward the crowd] It doesn't matter how much we're played with.

[Woody gestures Mike to move to him since the microphone's wire is stretched too far]

Woody: What matters is that we're here for Andy when he needs us. That's what we're made for, right?

"I think you're right, Woody." said Mirabel. "What matters to me is that I'm here for mi familia when they need it."

The heroes nodded in agreement.

Hamm: Pardon me. I hate to break up the staff meeting but.... they're here!!!!!!!!!! Birthday guests at three o'clock!

[Rex screams]

Woody: Stay calm, everyone!

[The toys stampede to the window, passing Woody]

Woody: Hey!

[Mike even joins in the panic, taking the microphone out of Woody's hand]

Woody: Uh, meeting adjourned.

"That's what you call 'staying calm'?" Helen Parr said in disbelief.

"Well, it happens fast, you know." said Woody innocently.

(The guests arrive for Andy's birthday party. The toys all crowd around the bedroom window, trying to get a peek outside.)

Hamm: Ho, boy, will you take a look at all those presents?

[Mr Potato Head tries to look over the crowd]

Mr Potato Head: I can't see a thing!

(Unable to see over the crowd, Mr Potato Head pulls his eyes out of his head and holds them up over the other toys.]

"That's mighty clever, Potato Head!" said Jessie. 

"Si, and creepy." Bruno said, unnerved.

[They see kids carrying presents into the house]

Hamm: Yes, sir, we're next month's garage sale fodder for sure!

Rex: Any dinosaur-shaped ones?!

Hamm: Oh, for crying out loud. They're all in boxes, you idiot.

Rex: They're getting bigger!

Slinky: Wait, there's a nice little one over there.

(At first, the kid's present appears to be a little box, but then the kid turns. The present is four feet long. The toys scream and pull at the blinds]

"Wow." said Forky. "So this is what your staff meetings were like back then, Woody?" 

"Sorta." said Woody.

"Eh." Ennui sighed. "What's the point of birthdays, anyway?"

Mr Spell: Spell: trash can.

Rex: We're doomed!

[Down below, Woody facepalms.]

Woody: [shouting] Alright! ALRIGHT!

[The toys look at him]

Woody: If I send out the troops, will you all calm down?!

Rex: Yes, yes, we promise!

Woody: OK! Save your batteries! [walks off]

Hamm: Very good, Woody. That's using the old noodle.

"Right." said the FilmMaster. "Does it feel similar to you that new things happen and the old ends up pushed aside?"

"It did to us once." said Fear, remembering when he and the other Emotions were pushed out of Headquarters and into Riley's Memory Vault by the newer Emotions. Sadness agreed.

Mirabel remembered being pushed to the sidelines by her family a lot in the Encanto, since she had no gift of her own.

"Well, don't you worry." the FilmMaster assured them, "Soon, we'll see how the toys find out what is in the boxes. After all, like they say, 'don't judge a book by it's cover'."

"I know." said Thomas, remembering the time he met Terence the tractor and teased him for his caterpillar tracks, which soon came back to bite him when he got stuck in the snow and Terence had to rescue him. "I think someone should write a song about that." he said to no one in particular.

The FilmMaster flew outta the building to replenish the fuel in his flying chair, and it was gonna refuel to the length of the Thomas song "Don't Judge a Book By it's Cover".


Lyrics to the Thomas song "Don't Judge a Book By it's Cover":

 

Thomas first saw Terence the Tractor ploughing in a field one day and he said, "My oh my, you do look funny.
Where are your wheels, are your wheels, are your wheels?
However do you move along?
You really do look funny."
"Don't be so rude," said Terence the Tractor
"I don't have wheels like you
Because my caterpillar tracks are so much better.
And I can go anywhere, anywhere, anywhere
I don't need rails like you.
One day I will prove it, show you how I do it
Then you will understand..."
(Chorus)
That you don't judge a book by its cover
Don't make your mind up too soon
Things aren't necessarily always what they appear to be
Don't judge a book by its cover
Don't make your mind up too soon
Never (x9) judge a book by its cover.
Sure enough, one winter's day
When the snow lay deep and hard
Thomas got stuck, he was in trouble
And who do you think came along, came along
And rescued him that day
The snow didn't matter to Terence the Tractor
Now Thomas understands...
(Repeat chorus)
(Final Chorus)
Don't judge a book by its cover
Don't make your mind up too soon
Things aren't necessarily always what they appear to be
Don't judge a book by its cover
Just remember the rule!
Never (x17) judge a book by its cover!

 

Chapter 3: Recon Plan Charlie

Notes:

(See the end of the chapter for notes.)

Chapter Text

As soon as the FilmMaster returned, the film started again.

[Woody jumps onto the bed and looks at Sarge]

Woody: Sergeant, establish a recon post downstairs. Code Red! You know what to do.

Sarge: Yes, sir!

[Sarge jumps down from the table and onto one of the drawers. near the drawers, a "Bucket O' Soldiers" sits. Some soldiers peer out of the bucket.]

Sarge: All right, men. You heard him. Code Red! Repeat, we are at Code Red. Recon plan Charlie. Execute! Let's move! Move, move, move, move!

(The green army men file out of the bucket and march in formation across the bedroom floor, as seen by the toys standing on the shelf.)

"I guess this must be the reconnaissance mission." said Bentley.

"Yes, Bentley, it is." Sly said. "We've done several before."

(Cut to the hallway. Andy's door creaks open and a lone army man ventures forth to make sure the coast is clear. Satisfied, he motions for the others to proceed. Squads of soldiers march into the hall carrying a baby monitor and a jump rope. The army men each leapfrog behind the stairway bannisters and hold their positions while Sarge surveys the scene below through his binoculars. Directly below, Mrs. Davis passes through the hallway, rounding up Andy and all his birthday guests into the living room before heading to the kitchen.)

Andy's Mom: OK, come on, kids. Everyone in the living room. It's almost time for the presents.

[Once the hall is clear, Sarge motions to his men with a silent hand signal. Two paratroopers jump out through the railing, parachuting down to the floor below.)

"Oh, this is so tense." said Anxiety.

"But why do they need all that for spying on presents, anyway?" asked Kit. She remembered her former Emperor's guards spying on their enemies and unruly citizens in his world.

"It's so they'll see if Andy's getting new toys for his birthday." said Rivet.

"Oh, I see." Kit said.

(The paratroopers sweep the area with their plastic rifles, then give the "all clear" sign. The jump rope is lowered, and more soldiers rappel down. In Andy's room, the toys race toward the nightstand where Woody has placed the receiving half of the baby monitor.))

Hamm: Alright, gangway, gangway.

Woody: [turns the monitor on] And this is how we find out what is in those presents.

"I get it," Jimmy Neutron said, upon realising what was going on. "You're using the baby monitor so you can eavesdrop on the scene of where the presents are, so you can find out what Andy's getting for his birthday."

"Yes." Woody said. 

"I see." Jimmy said. "I don't approve of your methods, but I appreciate what you're trying to do."

"That's muy clever," Mirabel said.

"It's like you're planting a bug that allows you to listen in on their conversations," Bentley said. Of course, the Cooper Gang knew this; they'd done this thing hundreds of times before.

"Please." Camilo scoffed. "Dolores can do that without all the need of technology-whatever it is, or baby monitors." Dolores and Felix both scowled, and Pepa immediately slapped him in the face. "OW!"

[The Army Men walk across the hall when they hear Andy's mom coming]

Andy's Mom: OK, who's hungry?

[Sarge and his men all froze]

Andy's Mom: Here come the chips! I've got Cool Ranch and barbecue!

[She steps on one of the Green Army Men, crushing him with her foot]

Everyone winced.

Andy's Mom: Ow! What in the world..... Oh! I thought I told him to pick these up.

[She kicks them away with her foot and moves on. In Andy's room]

Rex: Shouldn't they be there by now? What's taking them so long?

Woody: Hey, these guys are professionals. They're the best. Come on, they're not lying down on the job.

[Cut to the hallway, where The Army Men are, ironically, lying down on the floor.]

"Talk about ironic," said Mitchell. Camilo nodded.

[Sarge stands up and motions his soldiers to move to the plant pot for safety. Suddenly, Sarge heard some moaning and he turns to see one of his soldiers [the same one Andy's Mom stepped on] moving limply across the floor.

Injured Soldier: G-G-Go on without me! J-Just go!

Sarge: A good soldier never leaves a man behind!

"Wow," said Mirabel. "He certainly cares for his men."

"Si." Julieta agreed. "Even when they're injured." She remembered her gift could heal the injuries of people in the Encanto.

(The Sergeant motions to the remaining men above. They lower some more soldiers via the jump rope, riding the baby monitor. Once downstairs, the 6 soldiers carry the baby monitor toward the houseplant, and at the same time, Sarge carries the injured soldier towards said houseplant. Suddenly, a ball bounces into the hallway, followed by the sound of footsteps and kids clamour. Sarge, supporting his wounded man, reaches the plant, right on the heels of the squad with the baby monitor. They conceal themselves in the house plant just before the children run by.)

"That was close," said Carmelita.

Andy's Mom: [offscreen] OK, everybody, come on.

[The soldiers set the baby monitor up while a medic tends to the wounded soldier and gives a thumbs up to Sarge, who peers under the leaves and looks through his binoculars to see the presents]

Andy's Mom: [offscreen] Everybody settle down. Now, kids. Everybody, you sit in a circle. No, Andy. Andy, you sit in the middle there. Good. And..... Which present are you gonna open first?

[A view of the pile of brightly wrapped gifts on the living room coffee table.)

Sarge: [offscreen] There they are.

"Wow." Joy said. "Andy must be one lucky boy to get all these gifts for his birthday!"

"Oh, we want a pile of gifts like that!" Envy said in awe.

[in Andy's Room]

Sarge: [voice on baby monitor] Come in, Mother Bird, this is Alpha Bravo. Come in, Mother Bird.

Woody: This is it! This is it! Quiet! Quiet! Quiet! Quiet!

Sarge: [voice on baby monitor] Alright. Andy's opening the first present now.

Mr. Potato Head: Mrs. Potato Head, Mrs. Potato Head, Mrs. Potato Head. [sees everyone looking at him] Hey, I can dream, can't I?

Mrs Potato Head was gobsmacked at what her husband was saying. Then again, in another taste of irony, she was one of those who was watching the movie where she never even appeared till the later sequel.

Sarge: [voice on baby monitor] The bow's coming off, he's ripping the wrapping paper. It's.. uh... It.. It's, uh... A lunchbox. We got a lunchbox here.

Woody: A lunch box?!

Mr. Potato Head: Lunchbox?!

"A lunchbox?!" everyone said at the exact same time as the people on the screen.

Slinky: For lunch! [laughs]

Sarge: [voice on baby monitor] Ok, second present, it appears to be... Ok, it's bedsheets!

Mr. Potato Head: Who invited that kid?!

"That's obvious," deadpanned Donkey. "Andy's mother."

"Donkey," Shrek said sternly.

[Sarge watches the pile of presents get smaller, right down to one.]

Mrs Davis: Oh, only one left. [picks up the last present]

Sarge: [voice on baby monitor] Okay, we're on the last present now.

Woody: Last present!

Sarge: [voice on baby monitor] It's a big one. It's...

[Lenny steps back, shaking nervously]

Sarge: [voice on baby monitor] It's a board game! Repeat, Battleship.

Toys: Hooray!

Hamm: Hallelujah!

"Alright!" cheered Camilo. 

[Hamm bumps Mr Potato Head, knocking his pieces off]

Mr Potato Head: Hey, watch it!

Hamm: Sorry there, old spudhead!

"Now that was funny!" Ratchet said, stifling a chuckle.

[Downstairs]

Sarge: Mission accomplished. Well done, men. Pack it up; We're going home.

[One soldier turns off the baby monitor. In Andy's room]

Woody: So, did I tell ya? Huh? Nothing to worry about.

Slinky: I knew you were right all along, Woody. Never doubted ya for a second.

"Well, at least we can all take knowledge in the fact there are no new toys to replace any of the toys in Andy's room." said Luisa.

"Oh, I wouldn't be so sure about that, Luisa." said the FilmMaster. "What do you mean?" Luisa asked.

[Downstairs, Sarge sees something through his binoculars]

Andy's mom: Wait a minute! Oh, what do we have here?

(Andy's mom is seen opening the closet and pulling out another large present.)

Sarge: Wait! [pointing to the baby monitor] Turn that thing back on!

[Back in Andy's room]

Sarge: [voice on baby monitor] Come in, Mother Bird! Come in, Mother Bird! Mom has pulled a surprise present from the closet. Andy's opening it.

[Downstairs, Sarge watches Andy open the present]

Sarge: He's really excited about this one.

Andy: [o.s.] Mom, what is it?

Sarge: It's a huge package. [one of the kids blocks his view] Oh, get outta the- One of the kids is in the way! I can't see....

[In Andy's room, the toys don't know what it is. Mr. Potato Head puts his hand to his head and to his sides while Woody looks, anxiously]

The events unfolding on the screen put everyone watching completely on edge and left most of them worried something bad was going to happen.

"Is this where Buzz entered the room?" asked Scamp.

"Exactly, son." Tramp said.

Sarge: It's a.....

[Andy holds a spaceship-shaped box in the air offscreen as the other kids cheer. In Andy's room]

Rex: It's a what?!?!?? [shakes the bedside table] WHAT IS IT!??!!!

[Rex shakes the bedside table so much, the baby monitor falls off the table and hits the floor, causing the batteries to fall out]

Rex: Oh, no!

Everyone gasped.

Mr. Potato Head: Oh, you big lizard! Now, we'll never know what it is!

Hamm: Way to go, Rex!

Woody: No, no! Turn them around, turn them around!

[Mr Potato Head is jamming the batteries in the wrong way]

Hamm: Oh, he's puttin 'em in back... [shoves Mr. Potato Head aside] Here, you're puttin 'em in backwards!

"Hang on! Hang on! That's not how the batteries go in!" said Ratchet.

"Si. I think you need to put it in the right way," said Mirabel.

"Says the girl from her weird Colombian village that has no electricity," Nick said in his mocking tone.

The Madrigals felt quite offended by this. 

'If I still had my gift,' Isabela thought, 'I'd choke him with my vines."

Woody: Plus is positive, minus is negative! Oh, let me!

(He pushes Hamm outta the way, and tries to fix the monitor himself. Downstairs, Andy leads his friends toward the stairs]

Andy: Let's go to my room, guys!

Sarge: [Into the baby monitor] Red alert! Red alert! Andy is coming upstairs!

[In Andy's room, Woody finishes fixing the other baby monitor]

Woody: Ah! There.

[He pulls it back up just as Sarge's message gets through]

Sarge: (via monitor) Juvenile intrusion! Repeat! Resume your positions now!

Woody: Andy's coming! Everyone, back to your places, hurry!

[The toys frantically run toward their hiding places.]

Hamm: Get to your places! Get to your places!

[Mr Potato Head has an ear missing]

Mr Potato Head: Where's my ear? Who's seen my ear? Did you see my ear?

Rex: Out of my way! Here I come! Here I come!

[Rex slams into a trashcan and falls over.]

"Ay, that was muy peligroso." Agustin said, cringing.

[Everyone scurries to their places as the kids' footsteps grow louder. Woody falls limp in his spot on the bed just as Andy's bedroom door flies open and a flood of children's feet rush in.)

Kid #1: Hey look! His lasers light up.

Andy: Take that, Zurg!

Kid #2: Quick, make a space! This is where the spaceship lands!

[The kid pushes Woody from his spot and put the spaceship on it. Woody slides, unnoticed, down the gap between the bed and the back wall.)

I’ve been there before.’ Mirabel thought bitterly to herself, remembering the many times her family had neglected her, due to not having a gift like the rest of them. It also made the Madrigals feel bad about themselves; Alma most of all. Why had they chosen to neglect her and push her away from them? I ask you, what sort of family did that?

Jessie could relate of course - when she was once with Emily, she ended up under the bed, and was left unfound for years until Emily grew up and found her, but then she left her in a donation box, which caused her to be afraid of being in storage.

"I told ya so, Woody." said Lotso, a smug smirk of triumph on his face. "Your kid don't want ya no more."

"Shut up, you duplicitous larcenous ursine!" Anger shouted from the front row up to Lotso and the villains.

"Anger!" Fear scolded. "There are kids in this room!"

Andy: And he does it like that. And he does a karate chop action!

Andy's Mom: [offscreen] Come on down, guys! It's time for games! We've got prizes!

[The kids hurry out of the room and shut the door. Rocky Gibraltar, a strongman toy who had been slammed by the door, falls over.]

"I guess a new jugete has arrived, right?" said Julieta.

"Si." The FilmMaster said.

"To be honest," said Lady to no one in particular, "I feel sorry for that Rocky Gibraltar toy."

Notes:

BTW, there's a hidden reference if you wanna guess it in the comments.

Chapter 4: Meeting Buzz Lightyear/Strange Things

Chapter Text

[The changing room door opens and the toys stare at the bed. From where he's lying, Rex turns his head towards the bed. The toys head over to see what's on the bed.]

Mr. Potato Head: What is it?

Bo Peep: Can you see it?

Slinky: What the heck is up there?

"I wonder who it is on that bed, Papa." Carla said to Victor.

Rex: Woody, who's up there with ya?

[Woody coughs as he crawls out from under the bed]

Slinky: Woody? What are you doin’ under the bed?

Woody: Uh, nothin'. Uh, nothin'. I'm sure Andy was just a little excited, that's all. Too much cake and ice cream, I suppose. It's just a mistake.

Mr. Potato Head: Well, that 'mistake' is sitting in your spot, Woody. [chuckles]

The toys all glared at Mr Potato Head for his smug comment. 

Rex: [gasps] Have you been replaced?!

Woody: Hey, what did I tell you earlier? No one is getting replaced. Now, let's all be polite, and give whatever it is up there a nice, big 'Andy's room' welcome.

[He climbs up to the top of the bed and there he sees a green, purple and white spaceman toy (Buzz Lightyear) standing heroically, and looking tall.]

Everyone was in shock and awe

"Oh, I want a Buzz Lightyear toy like that!" said Envy, her eyes going all starry-eyed in awe.

[Buzz blinks and surveys his surroundings, Woody gulps and ducks, trying to avoid being spotted. Buzz looks around, breathing the air in and out, ala Darth Vader-like, and pressing the red oval button on his chest. A beeping sound is heard]

Buzz Lightyear: Buzz Lightyear to Star Command. Come in, Star Command.

[There is no answer. He presses the button again.

Buzz Lightyear: Star Command, come in! Do you read me? Why don't they answer? [gasps at the sight of his torn-up cardboard 'spaceship'] My ship!

"I don't see what the fuss is about." sighed Ennui. "It's just an old box."

[He runs over to his cardboard spaceship and looks at one of its wings]

Buzz Lightyear: Blast! This'll take weeks to repair.

"It's still a box." muttered Ennui.

[He opens up the compartment containing his wrist "communicator"]

Buzz Lightyear: Buzz Lightyear mission log, Stardate 4-0-7-2. My ship has run off course en route to Sector 12. I've crash-landed on a strange planet. The impact must've awoken me from hypersleep. [He jumps up and down on the bed] Terrain seems a bit unstable. [He taps his "communicator"] No readout yet if the air is breathable, and there seems to be no sign of intelligent life anywhere.

Woody: [pops up in front of him] Hello!

Buzz Lightyear: [karate yells]

Woody: [screams]

Fear screamed and Carl used his inhaler.

[Buzz aims his "laser" at him]

Woody: Whoa! H-hey! Whoa, whoa, whoa, whoa, whoa! Did I frighten you? Didn't mean to. Sorry. Howdy. My name is Woody, and this is Andy's room. That's all I wanted to say. And also, there has been a bit of a mix-up. This is my spot, see, the bed here.....

[Buzz spots Woody's Sheriff badge on his vest and turns off his laser]

Buzz Lightyear: Local law enforcement. It's about time you got here. I'm Buzz Lightyear, Space Ranger, Universe Protection Unit. My ship has crash-landed here by mistake.

"Law enforcement." said Sly Cooper, "Ah yeah, I see what he means."

"Takes one to know one, ringtail." Carmelita said.

Woody: Yes, it is a mistake, because, you see, the bed here is my spot.

Buzz Lightyear: [not listening] I need to repair my turbo boosters. Do you people still use fossil fuels or have you discovered crystallic fusion?

Woody: Well, let's see, uh, we've got double-A's...

Buzz Lightyear: [sees something and gasps] Watch yourself! [He pins Woody down and aims his "laser"] Halt! Who goes there?!

[He's aiming at Slinky and Rex]

Rex: Don't shoot! It's okay. Friends.

Buzz Lightyear: Do you know these lifeforms?

Woody: Yes! [spits] They're Andy's toys.

Buzz Lightyear: All right, everyone, you're clear to come up. [The toys climb onto the bed and Buzz walks over to them] I am Buzz Lightyear. I come in peace.

"Well, now we know his name," Joy said in a vigor of excitement. "He's Buzz Lightyear!"

"Oh, remember when Buzz Lightyear came to Andy's room?" said Nostalgia.

"We know." said Fear bluntly.

Rex: [shaking Buzz's hand] Oh, I'm so glad you're not a dinosaur!

Buzz Lightyear: Wh-why, thank you! Now, thank you all for your kind welcome!

Rex: Say, what's that button do?

Buzz Lightyear: I'll show you.[He presses the button, and a musical cue is heard]

Buzz': (voice box) Buzz Lightyear to the rescue!

Toys: [in awe] Oh!

"Oooh!" said the heroes in awe, like the toys.

Slinky: Hey, Woody's got somethin’ like that. His is a pull string. Only it's....

Mr. Potato Head: Only it sounds like a car ran over it.

[Woody holds his pull string]

"I think that's kinda rude when you think about it, huh?" Helen said crossly.

"It can be." Bob Parr agreed.

Hamm: Oh yeah, but not like this. This is a quality sound system. Probably all copper wiring, huh?

"Copper wiring?" Kit said. "I have copper wiring too."

"So do I." Clank said.

Hamm: So, uh, where you from? Singapore? Hong Kong?

"I've never heard of those places before." said Thomas, remembering the places he'd been to around the world.

Buzz Lightyear: Well, no. Actually, I-I'm stationed up in the Gamma Quadrant of Sector 4.

[As Buzz talks, Woody rolls his eyes and look at the back of the box and read the description in the speech bubble which is what Buzz is saying right now]

Buzz Lightyear: As a member of the elite Universe Protection Unit of the Space Ranger Corps, I protect the galaxy from the threat of invasion from the evil Emperor Zurg, sworn enemy of the Galactic Alliance!

"I have no idea what he just said." Dr Cortex said.

"Same here." Tighten said. 

Mr. Potato Head: Oh, really? I'm from Playskool.

Rex: And I'm from Mattel. Well, I'm not really from Mattel. I'm actually from a smaller company that was purchased in a leverage buyout.

"Mattel?" asked Gingy. "What's a Mattel?"

"Mattel, Inc. is an American multinational toy manufacturing and entertainment company headquartered in El Segundo, California." the FilmMaster Said.

[Woody goes over to Bo]

Woody: You'd think they'd never seen a new toy before.

Bo Peep: Well, sure. Look at him! He's got more gadgets on him than a Swiss Army knife.

"That's nothing compared to the number of weapons I get in my videogames, if you add them all up." Ratchet said.

"That," Mirabel said, "is a challenge."

(Slinky presses the button on Buzz's arm, activating his laser light. Buzz quickly pulls his arm away.)

Buzz Lightyear: Ah, ah, ah, ah! Please be careful. You don't want to be in the way when my laser goes off.

Mr Potato Head: Hey, a laser! How come you don't have a laser, Woody?

Woody: It's not a laser, it's a... it's a little light bulb that blinks!

Hamm: What's with him?

Mr. Potato Head: Laser envy.

"I think someone's a little jealous, eh Bob?" Lucius said, nudging his friend on the arm.

Bob rolled his eyes - he could understand jealousy before - having to manage the kids by himself whilst his wife was away on Winston Deavor's campaign to make superheroes legal.

"I don't think we have a Jealousy emotion in our headquarters." Anxiety said. "We should totally get one!"

Woody: Alright, that's enough! Look, we're all very impressed with Andy's new toy.

Buzz Lightyear: Toy?

Woody: T-O-Y - Toy!

Buzz Lightyear: Excuse me, but I-I think the word you're searching for is 'Space Ranger'.

Woody: The word I'm searching for, I can't say, because there's preschool toys present. (gestures to the other toys)

Everyone looked confused by what Woody meant.

"What does he mean by that?" asked Julieta.

And the FilmMaster said, "I think he means he'd say something that young kids, like Antonio," he gestured to Antonio, "should never hear. They'd be classed as...... swear words."

Antonio gaped, and so did his parents. 

"Well," said Anger, "I have access to the entire curse word library in Riley's mind."

"Swearing is NOT permitted anywhere!" Judy Neutron snapped.

Everyone turned to look at her, before Judy sat herself down in her seat.

"Mothers. You know." Jimmy said sheepishly to the audience.

Carla faltered. She never liked talking about her ex-mother, Ash Delgado, the villainous woman who turned Victor Delgado, her father, to stone.

Mr. Potato Head: Gettin' kinda tense, aren't ya?

Rex: Oh, uh. Mr. Lightyear. Now, I'm curious. What does a Space Ranger actually do?

Woody: [angrily] He's not a Space Ranger! He doesn't fight evil, or, or... shoot lasers or fly!

Buzz Lightyear: Excuse me.

(Buzz calmly hits a button, and wings pop out. Again, the toys gasp in awe.)

Everyone watching gasped in awe at the wings that came outta Buzz.

"Wow!" said Jimmy. "I need to upgrade my jetpack designs."

Hamm: Oh, impressive wingspan! Very good.

Woody: Oh, what? Whaaaaaaaaaaaaat?! [shakes Buzz's wings] These are plastic. He can't fly.

Buzz Lightyear: They are a terillium carbonic alloy and I can fly.

Woody: No, you can't.

Buzz Lightyear: (sighs) Yes, I can.

Woody: You can't.

Buzz Lightyear: (sternly) Can.

Woody: (while poking Buzz's helmet) Can't, can't, can't!

"That's quite enough of that," Libby said crossly.

Buzz Lightyear: I tell you, I could fly around this room with my eyes closed!

Woody: Okay then, Mr. Lightbeer, prove it.

"WHAT?!?!!?" Fear shouted. "IS HE INSANE?! HE'S GONNA INJURE HIMSELF!!!"

"It's what he does in the movie." the FilmMaster said. "Look it up."

Buzz Lightyear: Alright then, I will. [he walks to the end of the bed.] Stand back, everyone!

[The toys move out of the way. Woody smirks and shakes his head in disbelief, thinking he'll never do it. Buzz climbs up on one of the bedposts as some other toys on the floor watch from below.]

Everyone watched with baited breath, both heroes & villains.

"He's got a suicide wish." said Violet, biting her lip.

"I bet he falls and breaks his arm off." Camilo said snarkily.

"NO SPOILERS, CAMILO!" The FilmMaster shouted.

Camilo immediately shrunk back into his seat. His parents, however, were too preoccupied with what was on the screen to notice.

[Buzz shuts his eyes and sticks out his arms like a diver.]

"Ay dios mio, I can't look," Bruno said, covering his eyes.

Buzz Lightyear: To Infinity... and Beyond!

(Buzz leaps off the bed and plummets straight down, hits a big rubber ball and bounces right back up. He then lands on a Hot Wheels car, which races him down the track, through the loop, and off a ramp.]

"This is all very dramatic." said Becky Butters.

[Buzz soars upward into a plane mobile hanging from the ceiling. Buzz becomes wedged between the plane's wheels. The impact turns on the plane's motor making it and Buzz spin around and around. All the other toys watch from the bed, mesmerised.]

The heroes were mesmerised too.

[Finally, the centrifugal force causes Buzz to separate from the plane, sailing him across the room toward the bed. Buzz makes a perfect landing right in front of Woody and then opens his eyes.)

Buzz Lightyear: Can!

[The toys cheer!]

Rex: Wow! Oh, wow! You flew magnificently!

[Mr Potato Head whistled]

Some of the heroes cheered too, at such an amazing feat of bravery and excitement.

"That was way beyond awesome!!" said Sheen. "WOOHOO!!!"

"Do that again, Buzz!" Mitchell said.

"Ay, I think my heart nearly stopped!" Agustin said.

"Is it over?" Bruno asked, his eyes still closed.

"Si, Tio Bruno, it's over." Mirabel said. "You can open your eyes now." Bruno opened his eyes.

Bo Peep: I've found my moving buddy.

"Sadly she won't be going with him." King Goobot complained under his breath.

Buzz Lightyear: [retracting his wings and taking in the applause] Well, thank you. Why, thank you all. Thank you.

Woody: That wasn’t flying! That was... falling with style!

"You're just jealous because he's better than you, Woody." said Shrek.

Isabela began to wonder if that was how she made Mirabel feel, due to being so snooty and obnoxious, coupled with the fact that Mirabel didn't get a gift.

[The toys follow Buzz to the edge of the bed]

Mr. Potato Head: Man, the dolls must really go for you. [whispers to Buzz] Can you teach me that?

Slinky: [Laughs] Golly bob howdy!

Woody: Oh, shut up! You know, in a couple days, everything will be just the way it was. They'II see.

[He looks jealously at Buzz as he was praised by the other toys]

Woody: They'II see. I'm still Andy's favourite toy.

"Not for much longer." the FilmMaster said.

"What do you mean?" Jimmy asked.

Needless to say, he and the others soon found out.


[Cut to Andy's house, the day after Andy's Birthday party. The song 'Strange Things' plays as Andy plays with Woody while bouncing up and down on his bed]

I was on top of the world, living high
It was right in my pocket
I was living the life
Things were just the way they should be
When from out of the sky like a bomb
Comes some little punk in a rocket
Now all of a sudden
Some strange things are happening to me

[Andy jumps off, play with Woody in the air then put him down in front of the box with BANK written on it. He brings Buzz in and press the laser button and pretends to shoot Woody with it and push him over with his hand. He ran to the wardrobe and changed into his space pajamas and wears a cardboard box helmet and space wings like Buzz and ran out of his room]

Andy: Buzz Lightyear to the rescue!

(Woody observes all the cowboy-themed items in the bedroom transform to space motif: the posters, the drawings on the wall, the pillow, the bedspread.)

Strange things are happening to me

Strange things

Everybody watching suddenly began to feel sympathy for Woody, apart from the villains [save Penelope].

Strange things are happening to me

Ain't no doubt about it

(Buzz watches Rex execute a wimpy roar. The space ranger lifts his head up and urges him. Rex tries again, this time giving a Jurassic Park T-Rex attack roar, which blows Mr. Potato Head's parts off. Buzz shake Rex's hand in congratulations.]

Most of the audience were shocked by the roar Rex made. Pepa cradled Antonio close to her.

"Sorry about that everyone." Rex said to the audience.

[Later, Woody meet up with Etch who has a picture of Buzz written on his screen. Woody looks over at Buzz who is combing a Troll doll's hair with a comb, chatting away like a hairdresser.]

"Oh, look at her hair!" said Envy in amazement at the Troll doll's hair. "I want hair like that!"

I had friends

I had lots of friends

Now all my friends are gone

[Woody angrily shakes Etch, removing Buzz's image. Later, other toys are using barbells made out of Tinkertoys for exercise, though some of them are struggling to lift them like Snake, Troll Doll [who can't pick up the barbell] and Rex [who has no weights on his bar].

"I use weights like that when I work out back home!" Luisa said excitedly.

And I'm doing the best I can to carry on

[Buzz runs on Robot's treads like a treadmill, with Mr. Spell as his weight indicator.)

"That's like Casita's moving treadmill." Luisa pointed out, remembering her workouts on it.

(Mr Potato Head attempts to lift his Tinkertoy barbell but ends up tumbling backwards, leaving his arms connected to the barbell.)

Camilo snickered at how funny that was. Mr Potato Head could only cover his eyes in embarrassment.

"You made a good try, honey." Mrs Potato Head pointed out.

I had power (power)

I was respected (respect)

But not any more

And I've lost the love to the one whom I adore

[Woody looks for Slinky to play checkers with when he saw his butt disappearing round the bed. He looks, and then he sees Slinky helping with moving Buzz's cardboard spaceship with Robot onto some cubes so that Buzz can fix it from underneath. In frustration, Woody kicks the checkerboard, sending the pieces flying. One of the checkers ricochets off the dresser and boomerangs into Woody's mouth.)

"That was hilarious!" Donkey said, falling off his seat in raucous laughter. Shrek facepalmed.

Let me tell you about it
Strange things are happening to me

(On Andy's bed, Buzz pets Slinky whose back end is stretched over to the other side where Woody sits. Slinky's wagging tail whacks Woody in the face repeatedly. Woody shoves Slinky's rear end off the bed, leaving his front end no choice but to eventually follow.]

Strange things

[At bedtime, Andy loads his toys into the toybox until just Woody and Buzz are left. He deliberates as to which toy to keep and which to toss into the toybox.]

"I think we can guess what choice he's gonna make." said Mirabel.

[That Night, Andy is sound asleep, with Buzz tucked under the covers next to him.)

Strange things are happening to me...

Ain't no doubt about it

Strange things

Strange things.....

(Woody peeks out at them from the toybox. Woody then sadly sinks back into the box, closing the lid to black.)

The audience, now felt quite sorry for Woody.

"So," the FilmMaster said, "does any of this feel familiar to you? Being pushed aside like you're junk?"

The Madrigals could relate on a better level, as identified when they started twiddling their fingers and biting their lips, Alma most of all.

Mirabel, of course, had no gift of her own like her family, so she had been turned away by most of her family, mostly Alma, and pretty much the majority of the Encanto, specifically in part due to an unhealthy obsession over the magic the Miracle granted the Madrigal family that everyone benefited from.

Emily remembered on her first day, she'd taken Thomas' coaches, Annie and Clarabel, by mistake, which made Thomas very cross indeed.

The Parrs could remember feeling worthless since the day Supers went illegal.

Jimmy Neutron remembered that no one in Retroville praised him for his inventions at times, which made him relate to Woody.

Sadness remembers how Joy and the other original Emotions always put her down, and pushed her aside, due to Joy wanting Riley to be happy all the time.

“Can anyone really else feel like they’re in Woody's shoes right now?” asked the FilmMaster.

"Sort of." Felix said in a saddened tone. 

"You have to admit, the song was quite catchy." Mitchell said.

"MITCHELL!!" Everyone said at once.

"What?" Mitchell said, quite confused. "Was it something I said?"

Chapter 5: Sid the Toy Destroyer

Summary:

The audience gets introduced to the Toy Story movie's villain.

WARNING: Mentions of Death and violence here.

Chapter Text

"OK." The FilmMaster said to his audience, "We're now gonna see the villain of the first Toy Story film."

"Is this exactly how Diesel 10 was the villain of Thomas & the Magic Railroad?" asked Dash.

"Exactly." the FilmMaster said. "Except, this villain is a human."

"Wow." everyone said in awe.

"OK." The FilmMaster said. "Le's see him."

He started the film up again.

[The next day, Woody opens the toy chest lid and looks around. Andy is nowhere in sight]

"I wonder where Señor Andy is." Victor Delgado said.

"I guess he must be out playing with his friends, Mr Delgado," said Mirabel. "Maybe spending some last few hours of fun with them before he moves away."

"I agree." Sadness said. "It's gonna be saddening for them when he moves away."

Woody: Oh. Finally! [feels his head to find his hat is missing] Hey, who's got my hat?!

[The toy shark shows up wearing Woody's hat]

Mr. Shark: Look! I'm Woody! Howdy, howdy, howdy.

"That's hardly funny," Tramp said.

"C'mon, Dad," said Scamp, "you gotta admit that's pretty funny!"

Woody: [laughs sarcastically, then snatches his hat from the shark] Give me that.

[He climbs out of the chest to find Buzz talking to Slinky and Rex]

Buzz Lightyear: Say there, Lizard and Stretchy Dog, let me show you something. It looks as though I've been accepted into your culture. Your chief, Andy, inscribed his name on me.

[He lifted his boot to show Andy's name written on it]

Rex and Slinky: Wow!

Rex: With permanent ink too!

[Woody shakes and seethes in anger]

Buzz: Well, I must get back to repairing my ship.

[Woody lifts his boot. Andy's name is written on it also, but in a much more childish scrawl and is largely faded. Bo comes up beside him]

Bo Peep: Don't let it get to you, Woody.

Woody: Uh... let what? I don't, uh...... What do you mean? Who?

Bo Peep: I know Andy's excited about Buzz. But you know, he'll always have a special place for you.

[Mr Potato Head walks by]

Mr Potato Head: Yeah, like the attic. (chuckling)

"Really, Potato head?" sighed Isabela in annoyance.

"That's coming from the formerly selfish entitled princess!" Mr Potato Head remarked.

Woody: All right. That's it! [walks over to Buzz, who is working on his spaceship.]

"Ay, this won't end well." Julieta said, placing her hand on her forehead.

(Across the room, Buzz's cardboard ship is still up on the ABC blocks. Buzz lies down on a skateboard and slides under the ship like a mechanic. Robot stands by waiting for instructions. Buzz's hand reaches out from under the ship.)

Buzz Lightyear: Hmm. Unidirectional bonding strip.

Robot: [turning to Snake, who is standing next to Rocky Gibraltar who is holding a tape dispenser.] Mr Lightyear wants more tape.

(Snake rips off a piece of tape with his mouth. Woody approaches the skateboard, grabs hold of Buzz's foot and rolls him out from under the ship.)

Woody: Listen, Light-Snack, you stay away from Andy. He's mine, and no one is taking him away from me.

Buzz Lightyear: What are you talking about? [to Robot] Where's that bonding strip?

[Buzz rolls back under, but Woody pulls him out again]

Woody: And another thing, stop with this space man thing! It's getting on my nerves!

Buzz Lightyear: [SITS UP] Are you saying you wanna lodge a complaint with Star Command?

Woody: Oh-ho, OK! Ooh, well, so you wanna do it the hard way, huh?

Isabela was beginning to remember her argument with Mirabel after the ruined proposal dinner, and it made her seem to regret her selfishness.

Buzz Lightyear: [getting in Woody's face] Don't even think about it, cowboy.

Woody: Oh, yeah, tough guy?

[He opens his helmet and Buzz starts gasping and choking as he crouches down and hold Woody's leg to support himself. When he stops, he sniffs the air and realises something.]

Buzz Lightyear: The air isn't... toxic. [to Woody] How dare you open a spaceman's helmet on an uncharted planet! My eyeballs could have been sucked from their sockets! [closes his helmet]

"Ay." Julieta said with a stern tone.

"I admit, I did go a bit overboard." Woody admitted.

Woody: You actually think you're the Buzz Lightyear? {starts laughing} Oh, all this time I thought it was an act! [to the toys} Hey, guys, look! It's the real Buzz Lightyear!

Buzz Lightyear: You're mocking me, aren't you.

"He so totes is." said Disgust.

Woody: Oh, no, no. No, no, no, no, no. [points at something offscreen] Buzz, look, an alien!!!!!

Buzz Lightyear: [falls for the trick and turns around] WHERE?!

[WOODY BURSTS INTO LAUGHTER, AND FALLS OVER LAUGHING, KNOWING THAT BUZZ WOULD FALL FOR HIS TRICK. BUZZ GLARES AT HIM]

Most of the audience glared at Woody for his cruel prank.

"Very funny." Cindy said sarcastically.

"Not cool, Woody!" Ratchet snapped.

"Si, that was uncalled for." Agustin said sternly.

It was about now that Dolores heard something on the screen. "Espara." she said. "I can hear something."

And not surprisingly, she wasn't the only one.

[Woody & Buzz suddenly hear a boy cackling offscreen]

Slinky: Whoa! [hides under the bed]

Woody: Uh oh.....

Slinky: It's Sid!

Sid: [offscreen] Don't move!

[The Troikas jump into each other to hide]

"Sid? What's a Sid?" asked Felix.

"He's the villain of the first Toy Story film." the FilmMaster said, "I stated that earlier."

"Yeah," said Bo Peep. "He used to be Andy's next-door neighbour, till we moved."

Rex: I thought he was at summer camp!

Hamm: They must've kicked him out early this year.

Rex: Oh no, not Sid!

Sid: Incoming!

[They head to the window at the desk, and look to see a boy called Sid throwing stuff at a soldier toy. His dog, Scud barks at the soldier, his lead tied to a shed]

"So that's Sid." said Jessie. "He's only a kid, Like Andy. Why don't you guys like him?"

"You'll see what he does soon, Jessie." Buzz said.

Mr. Potato Head: Who is it this time?

Woody: I... I can't... I can't tell. Hey, where's Lenny?

Lenny: [stepping up] Right here, Woody.

Rex: Oh, no, I can't bear to watch one of these again.

[Woody looks out at the soldier toy, which has a stick of dynamite attached to him.]

Woody: Oh no. It's a Combat Carl.

"I hate to be rude," said Jessie, "but that Combat Carl is nothin' like the one we met at the motel."

"That was a different Combat Carl, Jessie." Woody said.

"Why does he have dynamite on his back?" asked Princess Fiona.

"That's gonna be why we don't like Sid." said Mr Potato Head.

"Just as well your wife wasn't there." said Sheen.

"Sheen!" snapped Jimmy Neutron.

[Buzz joins them]

Buzz Lightyear: What's going on?

Woody: Nothing that concerns you spacemen, just us toys.

Buzz Lightyear: I better take a look anyway. [looks through Lenny at the Combat Carl toy]  Why is that soldier strapped to an explosive device?

Woody: [moving Lenny to show Buzz] That's why. Sid.

[The camera sees that Buzz is looking at Sid's dog Scud as he barks at the soldier]

Buzz Lightyear: Hmm. Sure is a hairy fellow.

"I like that dog!" Buster said excitedly. "He'd be a perfect Junkyard Dog if he didn't have that collar."

"Junkyard Dog?" said Bruno anxiously. "What's a Junkyard Dog?"

"We'll learn later," said the FilmMaster.

Woody: [realising his mistake of identifying Scud as Sid to Buzz] No, no, that's Scud, you idiot. [He moves Lenny to show Buzz what Sid really looks like] That is Sid.

[Sid laughs evilly. Buzz lowers Lenny]

Buzz Lightyear: You mean that happy child?

Mr. Potato Head: That ain't no happy child.

Rex: He tortures toys, just for fun!

Everyone gasped, and lots of them became angry.

"HE DOES WHAT!??!?!?!??!?" Shrieked Pepa in annoyance, standing up as her popcorn bowl flew onto Antonio's head. "OOOoh, If I had my gift, I'd electrify him so bad, not even his ashes will remain!"

"I would introduce him to the R.Y.N.O." said Ratchet.

"I'd strangle him with my vines till his head pops!" Isabela snapped.

"I'd break his neck with my arm!" Luisa snapped.

"I'd hit him on the head with my hammer." Rivet snapped.

"And Kit will go full warbot on him, and shoot him to death!" Ratchet shouted. 

Kit quivered at this, for it was starting to trigger some bad memories again.

"I'd cut his hand off with a steak knife." snarled Julieta. ""And," she added for good measure, "I'll heal him with an arepa just so that I can do it again.”

"OK, all of you," the FilmMaster said, "let's cut the murder comments out here. Let's carry on with the film."

[They watch Sid throwing a brick near the soldier.]

Buzz Lightyear: Well, then, we've got to do something!

[He climbs onto the windowsill]

Bo Peep: (gasps, putting her cane hook on Buzz's arm) What are you doing? Get down from there!

Buzz Lightyear: I'm gonna teach that boy a lesson.

Woody: Yeah, sure. You go ahead. Melt him with your scary laser.

[He presses Buzz's laser button and it starts beeping]

Buzz Lightyear: Be careful with that! It's extremely dangerous.

[Lenny saw Sid lighting a match and lighting the little dynamite strapped to Combat Carl]

Lenny: He's lighting it! He's lighting it! Hit the dirt!

[Bo screams]

Buzz Lightyear: Look out!

[They all take cover as the dynamite explodes, destroying the soldier, as bits of him rain down on the house.]

Everyone covered their ears as the dynamite exploded.

[The toys are soon back on the windowsill.]

"Ay, it's a miracle Andy's mom didn't hear that loud explosion." Carla Delgado said to her father, who nodded grimly.

Scud: (barks)

Sid Phillips: Yes! He's gone! He's history! (laughs with triumph)

[A large black scorch mark is all that remains where Combat Carl once stood. Sid jumps up and down victoriously while Scud resumes his BARKING.]

Buzz Lightyear: I could have stopped him.

Woody: Buzz, I would love to see you try. Course, I'd love to see you as a crater.

Everyone watching was now beyond furious by what Sid had done.

"What that kid did is unacceptable! And it's really dangerous!" Fear snapped. "Matches are not meant to be played with like toys! They can about about 10 gazillion fire risks and hazards!!!!"

"Exactly." Judy Neutron agreed, as angry as Fear was. "Why would his parents give him toys if he's blowing them up like they're trash?!"

"That's really dangerous!" Cindy said.

"I agree." said Libby.

"Even i don't use dynamite in my experiments. It's number one on my list of 'Things That I, James Isaac Neutron, Will NEVER EVER Do'." Jimmy said.

"You keep a list of thing you'll never do?" said a confused Judy.

"Yeah Mom." Jimmy said. "I keep it in my desk drawer."

Judy & Hugh looked at each other, and decided not to comment on the situation.

Bo Peep: The sooner we move, the better.

"I second that emotion." said Mirabel.

Chapter 6: Woody's BIG Mistake

Notes:

Thanks to Tranzilla2004 for the suggestion

Chapter Text

"OK." the FilmMaster said, "Now you've all met Sid."

"We know." Victor Delgado said. "He's that nasty jugete destroying kid."

"No wonder Andy never invites that kid to play, or to his birthday party." Camilo said.

"For once, Camilo, you're absolutely right." Felix said.

"OK," The FilmMaster said. "Now, this part is where the story takes an unexpected turn."

Woody was now dreading this part - he could remember it all too well.

[The scene changes to evening. A "for sale" real estate sign stands in the front yard. Another sign reading "sold" hangs from the bottom.]

ANDY: To Infinity and Beyond!

(Mom opens the door to Andy's room and steps in. The room is full of packing boxes, most of them half full. Andy is playing with Woody & Buzz]

Andy's Mom: Oh, all this packing makes me hungry. What would you say to dinner at, uh- Oh, Pizza Planet?

Andy: Pizza Planet?! Oh, cool! 

"Pizza?" said Mirabel. "I don't think we've had that stuff in the Encanto before."

"That sounds amazing to try." Luisa said.

(Andy throws the two toys on his desk with Buzz landing right on top of Woody and runs to his mother before they both leave. The minute the door is closed by Mom, Woody comes alive and shoves Buzz off of him.)

Andy's Mom: Go wash your hands and I'll get Molly ready.

Andy: Can I bring some toys?

Andy's Mom: You can bring one toy.

Andy: Just one?

Woody: One toy?

"I bet he picks Buzz." Mitchell said. "After all, Buzz is Andy's favourite now."

(Woody glances over his shoulder at Buzz, who is walking away toward the opposite end of the desk. Woody picks up a Magic 8-Ball left beside him on the desk.]

Woody: Will Andy pick me?

[With his back to Buzz, Woody quietly shakes the 8 ball. The triangular oracle floats up to the surface. Its prediction reads "Don't Count On It!".]

Woody: "Don't count on it"? AWWWW!!!

[Hamm and Mr. Potato Head look up from their game of cards. Woody throws the Magic 8 Ball down in anger and it rolls off the desk landing with a thud on the ground. The thud caught Woody's attention and he looks down to see the ball wedged at the bottom. The space is a black chasm, dark and deep, just big enough to fit a toy.]

"Uh-oh." said Bob Parr anxiously.

"Uh-oh is right." Coco said anxiously.

"Ay," sighed Alma. "He's not gonna do what I think he's gonna do, is he?"

"He is, Abuela." Mirabel said, with a very grim look on her face.

"Ay dios mio, he's worse than Junior was in Thomas and the Magic Railroad." Julieta muttered.

[Woody looks across the desk at Buzz. He is humming as he forages through Andy's pen/pencil tray looking for tools to repair his ship with. Right behind Buzz sits RC, resting on the desktop, pointing in the direction where the 8 ball fell, with the remote laying by its side. Woody smiles for a beat and then runs in a mock panic over to Buzz.)

Woody: [mock worry] BUZZ! Oh, Buzz! Buzz Lightyear! Buzz Lightyear, thank goodness! We've got trouble!

Buzz Lightyear: Trouble? Where?

Woody: [points to the desk] Down there! Just down there; A helpless toy! It's... it's... it's trapped, Buzz!

Buzz Lightyear: Then we've no time to lose!

[As Buzz goes to the edge of the desk, Woody sneaks over to RC.]

All Woody could do now was cover his eyes, hoping he could forget that horrid memory of his big mistake replayed for everyone to see.

[Buzz looks down the back of the desk. Woody picks up the remote for RC and switches it on. RC's eyes/headlights open sleepily.)

"I can't bear to look!" Carl said, covering his eyes.

Buzz Lightyear: I don't see anything!

Woody: Oh, he's there! Just, just keep looking! [hits the forward button on the remote and steers RC straight for Buzz]

Buzz Lightyear: What kind of toy-

(Buzz turns and gasps to see RC headed straight for him. He dives out of the way as RC smashes into the bulletin board. Mr. Potato Head gasps in horror as the impact forces pushpins to fly out of the board. Buzz ducks as pins land all around him, sticking into the desk like arrows, but leaving him unharmed. The bulletin board falls over, and slams down onto a globe, knocking it out of its stand. The globe starts rolling right at Buzz, like a big boulder. Woody stands frozen in disbelief at the chaos he's created. Buzz runs along the desk, the globe rolling right behind him, ala Indiana Jones style. Buzz trips on a pile of pencils, but at the last second rolls out of the way of the globe onto the window ledge. The globe lumbers past Buzz and strikes a Luxo-style desk lamp, knocking off Andy's pen/pencil tray in the process. The arm of the lamp swings all the way around, barely missing Woody, who ducks to avoid getting hit by the lamp, which knocks Buzz out the window with a Wilhelm scream.)

Everyone was horrified.

"Oh, no!" Clank said in horror.

Hamm & Mr Potato Head: BUZZ!!!! [they drop their cards]

Rex: Agh!

Woody: Buzz!

[Buzz plummets down into some bushes beside the house. Everyone crowds around the window]

Slinky Dog: I don't see him in the driveway! I think he bounced into Sid's yard!

[Woody steps back unnoticed, feeling guilty]

Rex: Oh, Buzz!

"What happened?!" Carl wailed, his eyes still covered.

"You don't wanna know, Carl," said Jimmy Neutron.

"At least it can't get much worse, right?" said Mitchell.

(Rex looks over at RC. The remote-control car is bouncing up and down excitedly, revving his engine and honking his horn. The toys turn from the window to RC.)

Rex: Hey everyone! RC's trying to say something!

Slinky Dog: What is it, boy?

Mr. Potato Head: He's sayin' that this was no accident.

Toys: Huh?

Bo Peep: What do you mean?

Mr. Potato Head: I mean Humpty Dumpty was pushed...

Slinky: No!

Mr. Potato Head: ....by Woody!!!!!!! [points in Woody's direction]

Toys: WHAT?!?!?!

"And it just got worse." Mitchell said.

Everyone was looking shocked and angry at Woody.

Woody: Wait a minute. You, you don't think I meant to knock Buzz out the window, do you, Potato Head?

Mr Potato Head: That's MR Potato Head to you, you back-stabbing murderer!

"Woody, how could you do such a horrible thing!?!?!?" Isabela shouted.

"Was it because you believed that Buzz was gonna replace you?" said Emily.

"Look," said Woody in defense, " I only meant for Buzz to fall behind the desk, not right out the window. I didn't want that to happen."

"Si," said Agustin sternly, "But trying to use RC to ram him down there was muy peligroso, and you know that."

Woody: Now, It was an accident. Guys, come on. Now you, you gotta believe me.

Slinky: We believe ya, Woody. [to Rex] Right, Rex?

Rex: Well, ye-n... I don't like confrontations!

"Neither do I." Bruno said.

[Sarge pops out of the bucket of soldiers in a box behind Woody]

Sarge: Where is your honor, dirtbag?! You are an absolute disgrace! You don't deserve to... [Woody shuts the lid on him] Hey!

Mr. Potato Head: You couldn't handle Buzz cuttin' in on your playtime, could ya, Woody? [As he talks, Woody walks closer to the edge of the desk and nearly falls off.] Didn't wanna face the fact that Buzz just might be Andy's new favourite toy, so you got rid of him! [walks closer to Woody] Well, what if Andy starts playin' with me more, Woody, huh? You gonna knock me outta the window too!?

(Woody raises his arms innocently]

"Ay dios mio, this is getting bad." said Julieta anxiously.

Hamm: I don't think we should give him the chance.

[Then the lid opened and Sarge and his men jumped out and jumped onto Woody]

Sarge: There he is, men! Frag him! [Soldiers yelling]

Mr. Potato Head: Let's string him up by his pull string!

Hamm: I got dibs on his hat!

Bo Peep: Would you boys stop it?!

"Leave them alone!" cried Mirabel.

Hamm: Tackle him!

[RC blocks Woody]

Pepa cradled Antonio towards her. She may have been mad with Woody, but she couldn't bear to see her son see the toys' attack on Woody.

Woody: No, no, no, no! Wait! Wait, I can explain everything --

[Then as the toys were advancing on Woody, they heard Andy and his mom's voices from outside)

Andy's Mom: Andy, c'mon!

Andy: Okay, Mom, be right down. I've gotta get Buzz.

Sarge: Retreat!

"Whew!" said Mirabel in relief. "That was close."

[Everyone hid just as Andy entered his room and looks for Buzz]

Andy: Mom, Do you know where Buzz is?

Andy's Mom: [offscreen] No, I haven't seen him.

Mr. Potato Head: Psssst!

(Woody looks across the room. Mr. Potato Head and Etch-A-Sketch peek out of a packing box. Etch-A-Sketch scribbles a hangman's noose while Potato Head points an accusing finger in Woody's direction.)

Everyone turned angrily to Mr Potato Head.

"Did you just draw a hangman's noose?" Jessie said angrily.

"Uh, well, it was kinda like a precaution." Mr Potato Head said sheepishly.

Mrs Potato Head just scowled.

Andy's Mom: [offscreen] Andy, I'm heading out the door!

Andy: But, Mom, I can't find him!

Andy's Mom: [offscreen] Honey, just grab some other toy! Now come on!

Andy: [sighs] Ok. [grabs Woody and leaves the room]

[He exits the house and walks to the car.]

Andy: I couldn't find my Buzz. I know I left him right there.

Andy's Mom: Honey, I'm sure he's around. You'll find him.

(A bush next to the van begins to rustle. Hands part the foliage, revealing Buzz. He sees Woody going into the van with Andy, and growls. The van engine starts up. Buzz races out of the bush, and with a mighty leap, grabs the rear fender of the van as it pulls out of the driveway. The rest of Andy's toys have regrouped at the window, supervising the lowering of A chain of red monkeys being lowered down to rescue Buzz by Bo Peep's cane, but it's short from the bushes.

Slinky: It's too short! We need more monkeys!

Rex: There aren't any more! That's the whole barrel!

[He drops the barrel and walks to the edge of the window to look out, as the chain of monkeys is pulled back in]

Rex: Buzz! The monkeys aren't working! We're formulating another plan! Stay calm! Oh, where could he be?

"If only they knew Buzz was going after Woody." said the FilmMaster.

"What was that?" asked Tighten.

"Nothing." the FilmMaster said.

Chapter 7: The Gas Station

Notes:

BTW, THERE'S A Reference to one of Kirric (Kirrithian)'s stories in this chapter.

Chapter Text

[The scene changes to a Dinoco gas station where Andy's family's car pulls up to one of the pumps. Andy sits in the rear seat with Woody lying next to him.)

"Uh, why are they going to the gas station?" Anger asked. "I thought they were heading to Pizza Planet!"

"They have to refuel the car first, Anger." said Joy. "They'll need all the fuel they can get when they move."

Andy: [gets out the car] Can I help pump the gas?

Andy's Mom: Sure! I'll even let you drive.

Andy: Yeah?

Andy's Mom: Yeah, when you're 16.

Andy: (sarcastic) Yep, yep, yep. Funny, mum.

"Sounds familar, doncha think?" The FilmMaster stated.

[Woody unfreezes]

Woody: (worried about what will happen if he returns without Buzz) Oh, great. How am I gonna convince those guys it was an accident?

"Was it an accident, now?" Victor Delgado stated grimly, arms folded.

[Then, Buzz appears on the sun roof above Woody]

Woody: Buzz?

(Buzz jumps down on the back seat to face Woody.)

Woody: [excitedly] Buzz!

[Buzz has a fly on his helmet, and is glaring at Woody.]

"Barf." Disgust said.

Woody: Ha! You're alive! This is great! Oh, I'm saved! I'm saved! Andy will find you here. He'll take us back to the room, and then you can tell everyone that this was all just a big mistake. [He removes the fly from Buzz's helmet and wipes it while Buzz just glares at him] Huh, right? (pants weakly) Buddy?

"He's not gonna believe so, ain't he." Jimmy said. 

"Mm-hm." Libby said.

Buzz Lightyear: I just want you to know that even though you tried to terminate me, revenge is not an idea we promote on my planet.

Woody: Oh, well, that's good.

Buzz Lightyear: (getting to Woody's face, speaking grimly) But we're not on my planet, are we?

Woody: No.

"This isn't gonna end well." said Ratchet.

"Ya think?" said Rivet to no one in particular.

[Buzz lunges at Woody and they fall off the car to the ground. They rolled underneath the car, fighting like wrestlers]

"Ay, I knew this was gonna happen." sighed Alma.

Most of the audience winced at each blow, and some of them could hardly bear to look at such annoyance.

The toys could hardly believe what stunts were going down on the screen. 

[Buzz kicks Woody to the tire]

Woody: Okay. Come on! [runs up to Buzz] You want a piece of me?!

[Buzz punches Woody, making his face spin until he stops it. Woody lunges at Buzz, pinning him down, opening his helmet and punching his face, making a squeaky noise with each punch. Buzz then closes his helmet on Woody's hand, making him cry out in pain.]

Woody: Owwwww!

Buzz Lightyear: [Voice box] Buzz-Buzz-Buzz Lightyear to the Rescue!

[He then punches Buzz's button many times, making it repeat the "Buzz Lightyear to the Rescue!" phrase, until Buzz flips him over, and puts his foot on Woody's back while pulling his arms back which makes Woody yell in pain.]

Woody: Aah-OUCH!!!!

"Oooh, that'll leave a mark." Hamm said.

Ay por el amor de Dios. I think that’s quite enough of this. This tontería is getting out of hand.” Alma objected, getting tired of seeing such tomfoolery unfold before her.

And almost immediately, her wish was granted.

[Then they heard Andy and his mom coming to the car]

Andy's Mom: Next stop...

Andy: Pizza Planet! Yeah!!!

[He gets in the car, the door shuts, and it drives off, leaving Woody & Buzz behind]

Woody: (gasps) Andy!

[They watch as the car drives off into the distance. Woody starts to run in the direction of the van, but it drives out of sight, leaving Buzz and Woody stranded.)

Woody: What, doesn't he realise that I'm not there? (gasps loudly, realizing what this means) I'm LOST! [drops to his knees sobbing] Oh, I'm a lost toy!

[He sobs as they stand at the same spot for a while]

Everyone felt some kind of sympathy for Woody, being stranded at a gas station with Buzz. 

"Poor guy." Sadness said, feeling Woody's crying.

[Meanwhile, Buzz checks the surroundings. He flips open his wrist communicator.)

Buzz Lightyear: (opening his wrist communicator) Buzz Lightyear Mission Log. The local sheriff, and I seem to be at a huge refuelling station of some sort --

[Woody turns around angrily]

Woody: YOU! [runs toward Buzz]

"Oh no, not again." said Julieta anxiously, worried there was gonna be another fight between Woody & Buzz.

[Just then, A LOUD HORN SOUNDS, AND THEN the 2 toys are bathed in the headlight beams of a behemoth tanker truck pulling into the station. Buzz dives off to the side while Woody collapses right where he stands on the pavement. The truck roars over him. A gigantic tire stops just millimetres from Woody's nose.]

The audience looked frightened by the fact that Woody was almost crushed. Bruno was sweating like a hog in the summertime.

[Petrified, Woody inches away from the tire, moving back under the truck until he bumps into Buzz.)

Buzz Lightyear: (into wrist communicator) According to my nava-computer, the --

Woody: Shut up! Just shut up, you idiot!

Buzz Lightyear: Sheriff, this is no time to panic.

Woody: This is the perfect time to panic! I'm lost, Andy is gone; They're gonna move from their house in two days, and it's all your fault!

Buzz Lightyear: My... My fault?! If you hadn't pushed me out of the window in the first place...!

Woody: [angrily] Oh, yeah? Well, if you hadn't shown up in your stupid little cardboard spaceship and taken away everything that was important to me...!

"Excuse me, Woody!" snapped Princess Fiona, "For your information, your feud with Buzz is what started that mess in the first place!!"

"Aye!" Shrek agreed. "So don't go pinnin' the blame on a flashy space toy that took over your role as Andy's new favourite toy!"

"OK, I get it!" Woody snapped.

Buzz Lightyear: Don't tell me about importance! Because of you the security of this entire universe is in jeopardy!

Woody: What?! What are you talking about?!??!?!!?

Buzz Lightyear: [walks out to see the stars and moon] Right now, poised at the edge of the galaxy, Emperor Zurg has been secretly building a weapon with the destructive capacity to annihilate an entire planet! I alone have information that reveals this weapon's only weakness. [pointing at Woody] And you, my friend, are responsible for delaying my rendezvous with Star Command!

Everyone stared with puzzled expressions at what they had just heard from Buzz.

"I have no clue what he just said." said Camilo.

"Neither do I, and I'm the smart one." Coco said.

"Just wait for Woody's reaction." said the FilmMaster.

Woody: [shouting] YOU! ARE! A! TOY!!!!!!!!!!!!!!

Everyone covered their ears.

Woody: You're not the real Buzz Lightyear, you're a... oh, you're an action figure! YOU ARE A CHILD'S… PLAYTHING!!!!!

Buzz Lightyear: You are a sad, strange little man, and you have my pity. [turns around and walks away from Woody] Farewell.

"That was very subtle." said Disgust bluntly.

Woody: [shouting] Oh yeah, well good riddance, ya loony!!!

"Rude." Isabela said.

"I might use that 'loony' insult for Osvaldo if he teases Mirabel again." Camilo said.

Woody: [walks away in the opposite direction whilst muttering] "Rendezvous with Star Command".

[Suddenly, a Pizza Planet truck pulls into the gas station as if by sheer coincidence.]

"Wow." said Mirabel. "What are the odds that would happen?"

Pizza Deliverer: [offscreen] Hey, Gas Dude!

Attendant: [offscreen] You talking to me?

[Woody looks at the Pizza Planet logo on the side of the truck]

Woody: Pizza Planet? [realizing it's a way to reunite with Andy] Andy!

Pizza Deliverer: [offscreen] Yeah, man, can you help me? Do you know where Cutting Blvd. is?

Attendant: [offscreen] Just a moment...

[Woody is about to go to the truck but then realizes something]

Woody: Oh, no. I can't show my face in that room without Buzz. [turns back to Buzz who is departing] Buzz! Buzz, come back!

Buzz Lightyear: Go away!

Woody: No, Buzz, you've gotta come back! I...

[He saw the truck's rocket on the roof, which gives him an idea]

Woody: I found a spaceship!

[Buzz stops and turns around]

Woody: It's a spaceship, Buzz!

"He's never gonna believe that," said Lord Farquaad doubtfully.

The FilmMaster quickly responded by electrocuting him.

[Buzz looks curious. A second later, he & Woody are spying on the truck from within the safety of a nearby oilcan display.)

Pizza Deliverer: [offscreen] Come on, man, hurry up! Um, like the pizzas are getting cold here!

Attendant: [offscreen] Uh, Cutting Boulevard, huh?

Pizza Deliverer: [offscreen] Yeah, yeah. Which way?

Buzz Lightyear: Now, you're sure this space freighter will return to its port of origin once it jettisons its food supply?

Woody: Uh-huh, and when we get there, we'll be able to find a way to transport you home.

"I see," said Carmelita. "Getting him to believe that was a spaceship so they could get to Andy. Kinda unorthodox, but I like it."

"Yup." Woody said proudly. 

"I knew it was a Pizza Planet Truck all along." Buzz said. "And I went along with it, since I still was thinking I was a real Space Ranger at the time."

"It was kinda clever, when you think about it, Woody." Jessie said.

Buzz Lightyear: Well then, let's climb aboard. [runs towards the truck]

Woody: No, no, no, wait, Buzz, Buzz! [runs up to him] Let's get in the back. No one will see us there.

Buzz Lightyear: Negative. There are no restraining harnesses in the cargo area. We'll be much safer in the cockpit.

Woody: Yeah, bu-

[He climbs up to the front cab window]

Woody: Buzz! Buzz!

"Ay, Senor Lightyear's got a death wish." Puss in Boots sighed.

Pizza Deliverer: [offscreen] That's two lefts, and then a right, huh?

Attendant: [offscreen] Yeah.

Pizza Deliverer: [offscreen] Uh, thanks for the directions, ok.

Attendant: [offscreen] Yeah, and remember, kid...

[Buzz jumps behind the pizza boxes so the driver won't see him]

"Good save." Metro Man agreed.

Woody: Buzz!

[The truck's engine starts up]

"Better hurry, Woody," said Scamp jokingly, "or you'll miss your connection!"

(Woody runs around to the back of the truck, scrambles up the bumper and throws open the back hatch to climb inside. Woody lets out a yell, as the back-hatch slams back down on his rear, sending him flying into the bed of the truck.]

Everyone winced and cringed.

"Ay, I bet that hurt," Luisa said.

"That was like what Tia Pepa did to some bullies who messed around with Tio Bruno when they were young." Mirabel said.

"How did you know?" Bruno asked his niece.

[Woody peeks through the dividing window into the cab. Buzz is hidden from the pizza driver's view by a stack of pizzas in their insulated covers. Buzz prudently fastens his safety belt.)

"At least he knows about safety." Fear said to himself.

Woody: It's safer in the cockpit than the cargo bay. What an idiot.

"You're just about to eat your words, Sheriff." the FilmMaster said.

(The driver shifts into gear and hits the gas, propelling Woody to the back of the truck. as rock music plays on the truck's stereo, the driver sharply turns left out of the gas station, sending Woody flying into the dividing window.]

Everyone groaned and winced and/or covered their eyes at what was happening. And also, the seats felt the painfully fast movements, which made them feel as dizzy as Woody was.

Some of the characters like Mr Potato Head, and even the villains, were enjoying the pain Woody was being put in. 

"This is more brilliant than Taco night!" Syndrome guffawed.

"Shoulda joined Buzz when you had the chance, Woody." said Lucius.

[The truck climbs a steep hill, making the junk slide to the back. Woody looks up and is just in time to see a large toolbox barrelling toward him. He screams the minute it hits him]

"That's gotta hurt," Dash said to Violet, who nodded in agreement.

[Cut to Pizza Planet. The truck soon arrives at Pizza Planet and stops. The driver gets out]

"Finally." said Alma, relieved the ride was over. 

"I swear," sighed Judy, "that driver should have his license revoked!"

[Buzz gets his seatbelt off, and looks up to see a giant model of a rocket near the building and heard the PA speaking]

PA: Next shuttle lift-off scheduled for T-minus 30 minutes and counting.

[Buzz looks at the entrance to see Two imposing animatronic robots guard the doorway. As customers approach the front, the guards part their crossed pizza spears, allowing the patrons to enter.)

Robot Guards: You are clear to enter. Welcome to Pizza Planet.

"Those guards look spooky, Jimmy." Carl said, using his inhaler.

Female PA: The white zone is for eating pizza...

[Buzz go to the back to check on Woody]

Buzz Lightyear: Sheriff.

[The toolbox falls down to reveal Woody all flattened against the wall]

"Ay.." muttered Agustin. "And I thought I got worse injuries."

Buzz Lightyear: There you are.

[Woody falls over into the trash]

Buzz Lightyear: Now the entrance is heavily guarded. We need a way to get inside.

[Woody gets up with a cup over his head, coughing]

Buzz Lightyear: Great idea, Woody. I like your thinking.

[Woody, a bit dazed, looks confused at what Buzz had said.]

"What is the plan?" asked Jimmy Neutron.

"They're gonna sneak in to Pizza Planet undetected, and try to get to Andy." The FilmMaster said.

"OK!" said Donkey excitedly.

"I don't know. It looks pretty risky. And very unsanitary." said Bentley.

"Only one way to find out!" Sly said.

Unfortunately, that was gonna have to wait till the next chapter.

Chapter 8: Pizza Planet

Chapter Text

"Now, the next part of this story," the FilmMaster began, "Is gonna be a turning point." 

"Is this where things change for Woody & Buzz?" asked Carla Delgado.

"Correctamundo." said the FilmMaster. "And we'll also meet the iconic aliens from the Toy Story franchise."

"Oooooooooooh!" said the Pizza Planet aliens watching the film.

The FilmMaster started up the film again.

[The robot guards let some customers in]

Robot Guards: You are clear to enter. Welcome to Pizza Planet.

[Suddenly, two pieces of trash, a burger container and a mega-gulp cup stand up.)

Buzz Lightyear: Now!

(The two disguised toys make a dash to the closing doors.)

Buzz Lightyear: Quickly, Sheriff, the airlock is closing!

[They make it through just as the door closes.]

"That was too close," Sly said.

Female Worker: (P.A.) Jones, party of five: Your shuttle is now boarding...

[Woody & Buzz freeze immediately as a group of kids run past, forcing the toys to pose as discarded trash.)

Boy: [running by with his sibling] Hey, Mom; Can we have some tokens?

[Buzz bumps into Woody]

Woody: Ow! Watch where you're going!

Buzz Lightyear: Sorry.

[Woody and Buzz run between the video game cabinets and took off their disguises.]

Male Announcer: (P.A.) 10, 9, 8, 7, 6, 5, 4, 3, 2, 1.

[They look in awe at the sight. The space-themed arena is filled with hordes of children playing video games. A sea of hi-tech sounds and lights overwhelms the place.)

Everyone was in awe at the sight of Pizza Planet.

"Whoa!" said Mitchell. "That's what I call an amazing place like Pizza Planet!"

"Hey hey, you're right there, Mitchell." said Hamm.

"Yeah!" Anger agreed. "And I hope it doesn't serve broccoli pizza!"

"Broccoli on pizza?" said Mirabel. "Gross."

"Duly noted." Disgust said.

"Yeah, you'll see very soon." said the FilmMaster.

Buzz Lightyear: What a spaceport! Good work, Woody.

[Woody looks around at the kids playing on arcade games until they hear Andy's voice nearby]

Andy: Mom, can I play Black Hole? Please, please, please?

Woody: Andy!

Buzz Lightyear: Now we need to find a ship that's headed for Sector 12-

Woody: Wait a minute. [grabs Buzz] No, no, no, Buzz, this way!

[he quickly pulls him down the video corridor]

Woody: There's a special ship, I just saw it!

Buzz Lightyear: You mean it has hyper-drive?

Woody: Hyperactive hyperdrive. [watches Andy and his family as they move closer to them] and Astro...uh, turf.

Buzz Lightyear: [looks around] Where is it? I don't see the --

Woody: (tracking Andy and his family) C'mon, c'mon, that's it...

(Buzz stops short at the sight of a crane game. It is modelled to look like a spaceship ready to launch.)

Buzz Lightyear: Spaceship!

"Uh oh, wrong spaceship, Buzz." said Jimmy Neutron.

Woody: Alright, Buzz, get ready, and...

[Buzz runs off, unnoticed by Woody, who has his eyes on Andy as they approach]

Woody: Okay, Buzz, when I say "go," we're gonna jump in the basket. [sees Buzz unning off] Buzz!!!

(Woody turns and realizes Buzz is gone. He looks across the way just in time to see Buzz leap into the crane game through the prize slot. Woody turns back in the direction of the stroller, which goes straight past.)

Woody: D'oh! No!

Andy: Hey, Mum, if I eat all my pizza, can I have some alien slime?

[Andy and his family rounds the bend]

"Well, that went well." said Mr Potato Head sarcastically.

Woody: This cannot be happening to me!!

"It just did." Scamp joked. 

"Scamp!" snapped Angel.

[Woody heads to the claw machine, but is forced to hide as someone walks by. Meanwhile, Buzz climbs over the partition that divides the deposit slot from the prize toys and leaps into a pile of Little Green Squeeze Toy Aliens. There are hundreds of them, all identical and way too cute.)

"Holy cow." said Felix.

"Look at all those aliens." said Fear. 

"There must be about a gazillion of them!" said Sheen.

"Oh boy!" sighed Mr Potato Head. "And I thought looking after 3 of them as kids was bad enough!"

Alien: A stranger!

Alien #2: From the Outside!

ALL Aliens: Oooooooooh!

"Oooooooooooh!" said the Pizza Planet aliens THAT WERE watching the film, at EXACTLY the same time.

Buzz Lightyear: Greetings. I am Buzz Lightyear. I come in peace.

[The aliens come toward Buzz, chattering excitedly. Meanwhile, Woody waits for some kids to run by before heading to the claw machine.]

Male Announcer: (P.A.) Before your space journey, re-energize yourself with a slice of pepperoni, now boarding at counter 3.

"Pepperoni?" said Isabela, intrigued. "What's that?"

"Pepperoni is an American variety of spicy salami made from cured pork and beef seasoned with paprika and chilli peppers," the FilmMaster stated.

"Wow." said Bruno. "Sounds tasty."

"Yeah," said the FilmMaster. "Before cooking, pepperoni is characteristically soft, slightly smoky, and bright red. Sliced pepperoni is one of the most popular pizza toppings in American pizzerias."

"We have meat somewhat like pepperoni in the Encanto too." Agustin said.

[Woody enters the machine via the prize slot, like Buzz did. Inside, Woody peeps over the partition wall to see Buzz with the aliens.]

Buzz Lightyear: This is an intergalactic emergency! I need to commandeer your vessel to Sector 12! Who's in charge here?

Aliens: [together] The Claw!

[They point to the claw in the claw machine above them]

Alien: The Claw is our master.

Alien #2: The Claw chooses who will go and who will stay.

Woody: This is ludicrous.

"I agree with the cowboy doll here." said Helen. "Why on earth are they worshipping a claw as their master? This completely breaks the first of the Ten Commandments! And I've read the Bible, back to back, cover to cover since high-school!"

"I like bibles too!" Templeton said. "I use them as doorstops."

Sid: [Offscreen] Hey, bozo, you got a brain in there?!

"Uh-oh." said Mitchell. "Guess who."

(Woody gasps at the recognition of Sid's voice, and turns to see Sid bashing the Whack a Alien Game]

"Oye." Alma said. "Not who they wanted to see right now."

Sid: Ha-ha, take that!

[The machine beeps, indicating that it's over, making Sid angry and hits it with a mallet then walks over to the claw game]

Woody: Oh, no! Sid! [jumps on Buzz, pushing him into the alien pile] Get down!

[Sid gets out his coins and puts them in the machine]

Buzz Lightyear: What's gotten into you, Sheriff? I was...

Woody: [angrily] YOU are the one that decided to climb into this...!

Alien: Shhhhhh. The claw. It moves!

Everyone was watching anxiously.

[The claw lowers down and grabs an alien which is on top of Buzz]

"Oh no." Ratchet said.

Alien: I have been chosen!! Farewell, my friends! I go on to a better place.

"A place of torment, torture, death and destruction." Bob stated.

Sid Phillips: Gotcha!

[As he watches the alien drop into the prize slot, he saw Buzz amongst the other aliens]

Sid Phillips: A Buzz Lightyear?! No way!

"Double Uh-oh!" said Mitchell. "Sid's seen Buzz!"

Everyone gasped.

[Woody spots a stock loading door. Woody swims through the alien squeeze toys toward the door. He grabs hold of the locking latch and, after a few attempts, is able to pry the door open. The shadow of the crane lines up over Buzz, lowers, and grabs his head.)

Sid: Yes!

Woody: [gasps] Buzz! No!

(Woody grabs hold of Buzz's feet and pulls down hard, forcing Buzz to sink into the pile of aliens, out of Sid's view.)

Sid: (banging his fist on the glass) Hey!

"Wow!" Woody's strong." said Luisa. "And he doesn't even have a gift of super strength, like I do."

(Still tugging against the crane, Woody is almost out the door with Buzz. Just then, the aliens at the bottom of the pile speak]

Alien: He has been chosen!

Alien #2: He must go!

[The aliens pull Buzz and Woody back inside.)

Woody: Hey! What are you doing??!!?!

Everyone's jaws dropped, and some gasped.

Aliens: [simultaneously] He must go! Do not fight the claw! Do not anger the claw! He has been chosen!

Woody: Stop it, you...! Stop it, you zealots!

[Woody and Buzz get lifted up by the claw, forcing them to freeze, and it takes them to the Prize door and drops them]

Sid: Alright! Double prizes!

[He takes them out of the prize section and looks at his new prizes with evil delight]

Sid: Let's go home and.... play. [sinister chuckle]

Everyone was now beyond scared and worried for Woody and Buzz.

Would Woody and Buzz be alright?

What evil tricks and traps would Sid have in store for these 2 bickering toys?

What would our audience think of it all?

Could Woody and Buzz get home to Andy's before moving day?

Would Woody be able to prove his innocence with Buzz?

Is broccoli pizza really that disgusting?

Why am I asking you all of these questions?

Well hopefully, some of these questions, but not ALL of them, will be answered in the next chapter.

Chapter 9: Danger Lurks in Sid's House

Summary:

We're introduced to the Mutant Toys in this chapter.

Be warned: This chapter contains more descriptions of violence. Don't say I didn't warn you.

Chapter Text

"OK," the FilmMaster said to the audience, "Now, I must warn you, this part of the movie is gonna be real scary."

"I bet this is where we're gonna see Sid's house inside." said Percy.

"Exactly." said The FilmMaster. "And," he added, "You're gonna see a bit more of his nastiness."

"Ay." Alma sighed. "I thought we had nastiness when he blew up that Combat Carl toy earlier."

"We haven't seen anything yet, Abuela," Mirabel said, as the film began again.

(Fade to Sid's house in the dead of night. Pan to the street. From out of the darkness, Sid appears on his skateboard. He is humming to rock music from his Walkman while carrying his backpack in his hand. Sid leaps off the skateboard and walks up the front path toward the front door.]

"As you can all see," said the FilmMaster, "Sid never asks his parents' permission to go to Pizza Planet. He skateboards there."

"Wow." said Sheen to no one in particular. "And I thought Nick was a cool skateboarder."

[Buzz, Woody and a squeeze toy alien are scrunched up in the backpack. Through the open zipper, Buzz peeks out of the backpack to see Sid's house. He recognizes Andy's house next door.]

Buzz Lightyear: Sheriff, I can see your dwelling from here! You're almost home.

Alien: Nirvana is coming! The mystic portal awaits!

"What is Nirvana?" asked Camilo.

"And what is this 'mystic portal'?" asked Judy Neutron, puzzled.

Woody: Will you be quiet? You guys don't get it, do you? Once we go into Sid's house, we won't be coming out.

[Sid opens the door, and Scud snaps and barks at his bag]

Everyone jumped and almost screamed at the sight of Scud. Pepa quickly hid Antonio's eyes. 

Carl was rapidly using his inhaler.

Sid: Whoa, Scud! Hey, boy. Sit! Good boy!

[Scud sits down and growls]

Sid: Hey, I got something for you, boy.

Woody: (gasps) Freeze!

[Woody, Buzz and the alien freeze as Sid grabs the alien and puts him on Scud's head]

"I don't think I like what's gonna happen." said Kit, hiding her eyes.

Sid: Ready, set, now!

[Scud grabs the alien and starts to shake it back and forth in a blur, while growling at the same time. Cut to Woody and Buzz watching this with utter distraught and horrified looks on their faces.]

Everyone else watched in horror, and shock, with utter distraught and horrified looks on their faces, like Woody & Buzz before them. Pepa quickly hid Antonio's eyes again.

"He has angered the claw!" said one of the Pizza Planet Aliens watching.

the rest of Andy's toys, despite not being in Andy's house, reacted in horror, with Bo Peep screaming in fright, Rex pretending to barf.

"Murderer!" said Mr Potato Head in horror.

Mrs Potato Head quckly took out her eyes so she wouldn't see what was going on.

Even the toys that weren't in the first Toy Story film, were horrified.

Sid: Hannah! Hey, Hannah!

[A girl named Hannah, Sid's sister, enters the hall, as seen from Woody & Buzz in Sid's bag. She has a doll in her hand]

Hannah: What?

Sid: Did I get my package in the mail?

"Package?" said Carla Delgado suspiciously. "What does he mean?" she asked her father, who shrugged.

Hannah: I don't know.

Sid: What do you mean you don't know?

Hannah: [Annoyed] I don't know!

Sid: [sighs, then speaks in mock concern] Oh, no, Hannah!

Hannah: What?

Sid: Look! Janie! [He takes the doll from Hannah]

Everyone was now completely shocked, horrified, and some were beyond furious. Seeing Sid blow up A toy soldier was one thing, but witnessing him steal other people's property - that was the final straw for most of them.

"I cannot believe this!" Alma erupted. This is classed as a full-on betrayal of familia! How dare that mocoso steal from his hermana!!!!!"

Carla & Victor Delgado could relate to this on a higher, and more brutal level - Victor remembered his former wife, Ash Delgado, who turned on him and Carla after he refused to go with her to Takaina after wanting to protect his daughter, and when Ash promptly turned him to stone, and abandoned him and Carla to be captured by Crown princess Elena.

Bentley remembered when he found out his girlfriend Penelope had betrayed him to work for Le Paradox. That completely broke his heart, and the whole of the Cooper Gang's trust.

Hannah: Hey!!!

Sid: She's sick!

Hannah: No, she's not!

[Sid runs upstairs]

Sid: I'll have to perform one of my... operations!

Hannah: No!!!!

Woody: Not Sid's room, not there!

(Sid races to his bedroom door. Hannah is right behind.)

Hannah: Sid, give her back! Sid! Sid!

[Sid slams the door on her.]

Everyone was now mad, even the dogs.

[ Sid carelessly tosses the backpack on the bed and walks over to a makeshift workbench.)

Sid: [as a doctor] Oh no, we have a sick patient here, Nurse. Prepare the OR, stat!

[He clicks on a bare bulb dangling above his operating table, then places the Janie doll's head in a vice. Woody & Buzz watch from the backpack.)

Sid: Patient is... [tightening vice] prepped. No one's ever attempted a double-bypass brain transplant before.

[he grabs a painter's mask from his tool chest and dons it like a surgeon's mask, then grabs a toy pterodactyl from a nearby crate full of junk]

Sid: Now for the tricky part. Pliers!

Buzz Lightyear: I don't believe that man's ever been to medical school.

"I think he deserves a well-deserved strangling with my vines." Isabela said. "When I was around Mirabel's age, I used to have bullies trample my floral displays in the Encanto."

Julieta & Agustin looked concerned. What those bullies did to Isa in the past was nothing compared to what Sid was doing.

[Sid finishes his 'work' on Janie]

Sid: [imitating nurse] Doctor, you've done it!

"I'm almost gonna regret asking this," said Bruno, "But what has he done to that doll?"

Needless to say, his question was soon answered.

[Sid goes to the door]

Sid: Hannah!

[Sid opens the door to a worried Hannah.]

Sid: Janie's all better now.

[He shows her Janie doll which now has a pterodactyl head on it, making Hannah scream in terror]

Everyone gasped in horror.

"OH MY GOD!!!!!!!!!" Judy Neutron screamed.

"HOLY MOTHER OF DUCKS!!!!" Hugh exclaimed.

Hannah: (screams) Mom! Mom! [runs downstairs]

Sid: She's lying! Whatever she says, it's not true!

[He throws the doll to the ground and goes out of the room, shutting the door behind him]

The crowd were now WAY beyond furious with what Sid had done.

"How low can he go?!" Sly Cooper snapped.

"I can think of way lower, Sly." Helen said, remembering when Evelyn Deavor controlled supers with her fake villain persona, the Screenslaver, to make sure that Supers would stay illegal forever.

"If I had my gift, I'd control the sun to give him third-degree sunburn." Pepa snarled.

"I'd wrap that boy's head up in my Ropa interior sucia!" Felix snapped.

"I'd chop off his arms and legs with my woodcutting axe, and then let the bees sting him!" snarled Agustin.

"Oh, if my son's TV show wasn't for kids, I would just stab that horrible boy Sid with a kitchen knife!" Judy Neutron snapped, her anger now reaching the same level as the many countless times she was angry with her son Jimmy.

"Oh, now, sugar-booger." Hugh started.

"Now, don’t you sugar-booger me." Judy said.

"Sugar-booger." said Hugh.

"Mm-mm, Nope." said Judy. "Not listening. No, no, no." all whilst Hugh went "Boo-boo-boo-boo-boo-boo-boo-boo-boo-booger!"

"Mom, please," said Jimmy, trying to defuse the situation. "Don't do that! You could end up tried for murder!"

"He's right, Mrs Neutron!" cried Carl. "Don't throw your life away! It's not worth it! A lifetime in prison!"

"OK, everyone." the FilmMaster said, getting their attention, "Let's continue with the movie before this fanfic gets bumped up to Mature."

[Woody and Buzz look around the room. On the floor is the discarded Janie-pterodactyl hybrid, its head having come off from landing on the floor. Also, heavy metal posters, discarded toy remains and power tools litter this room. On the shelf is a waffle iron with a mashed doll in it, and a lava lamp with 3 toy heads floating in it.]

The audience felt quite repulsed by such a sight before them. "Oh, that is disgusting!" Hamm said. "Good job it was only Woody and Buzz and not all of us."

Forky fainted.

Gingy dived straight into his popcorn.

"I was right." Stinky Pete said. "Children destroy toys."

'Oh my.' thought Lotso, worried. 'Daisy never played with me like that.'

Woody: We are gonna die. I'm outta here!

[he leaps from the bed, crosses a shelf and grabs to the doorknob, but it won't open]

Woody: Locked! [falls down] There's got to be another way outta here.

(He heard a rolling noise and turns to see A small yo-yo rolls out from behind a box and fall on its side. Spooked, Woody grabs a pencil from the floor and brandishes it like a weapon. Just then a shadow passes by Woody. He turns quickly but sees nothing.)

Woody: Uh, Buzz, was that you?

Carl slowly began using his inhaler.

Everyone was quite scared and shaking by this scene in front of them.

(Woody hurriedly trades his pencil for a larger flashlight. He hears a noise from under Sid's bed. Woody shakily turns on the flashlight and shines the beam in the direction of the noise, illuminating a baby doll head's profile.)

Woody: Hey, hi there, little fella. Come out here. Do you know a way outta here?

(The baby doll moves out from under the bed, revealing a one-eyed doll head atop a spider-like body made of Erector Set pieces. This is a mutant toy called Babyface. Woody gasps. The creature extends its legs and rises up taller than Woody.]

Everyone was now gobsmacked by what they were seeing.

"Who. Is. That." said Mirabel, gobsmacked.

"That," the FilmMaster said, "is Babyface. She is the leader of Sid's Mutant Toys."

"Mutant Toys?" Mirabel said. 

"Yup." said the FilmMaster. "They're creatures Sid made from the remains of his and Hannah's toys."

"Miercoles...." Agustin whispered in fear.

[Scared speechless, Woody keeps his flashlight beam locked on Babyface. Various other Mutant toys begin to emerge and come to life; a toy fishing pole with fashion doll legs [Legs], a jack-in-the-box with a rubber monster hand on the spring [Hand-in-the-Box], a skateboard with a pilot action figure toy's torso screwed to the front end [Roller-Bob] , a wind-up frog toy with a big left wheel and a missing arm [The Frog], and a mutant made from a Melody Push Chime with a Combat Carl soldier head and a severed Mickey Mouse arm nailed to the side [Jingle Joe]. Jingle Joe uses his hand to turn off the torch, prompting Woody to jump back onto the bed in fear]

Woody: [screams and stammers in fear, as he clambers onto Buzz] B-B-B-BUUUZZZZZZZ!!!!!!!!

[Woody & Buzz watch the sight - Roller-Bob, Hand-in-the-Box, Babyface and the Frog grabbing the discarded Janie body and pterodactyl head. Some of the mutant toys fight over them, but eventually drag them off.]

"Oh my god." Violet said. How she wished she could turn invisible right now.

"Aah!" said Bentley. "I think I'm going to be sick!"

[On the work bench, Woody & Buzz see Legs with 3 other mutant toys; a duck head PEZ dispenser atop a baby doll torso with a springy plunger base [Ducky], a yellow convertible toy car with baby doll arms instead of wheels [Pump Boy], and a mutant toy that has the head of a bug toy with the upper body of a Combat Carl action figure stuck in the headless torso of a Rocky Gibraltar-like toy controlling it with a car steering wheel [RockMobile]. These 4 mutants grab Janie's head and the pterodactyl body.]

Everyone was now so gobsmacked and horrified, they could hardly speak.

"Cinders and ashes!" said Thomas.

"Bust my buffers!" said Percy.

"Fizzling fireboxes!" said Emily.

Buzz Lightyear: They're cannibals!

[Woody & Buzz retreat into Sid's backpack to hide. Buzz presses a button on his chest]

Buzz Lightyear: Mayday! Mayday! Come in, Star Command! Send reinforcements! Star Command, do you copy?

[He adjusts his laser and points it out of the bag]

Buzz Lightyear: I've set my laser from 'stun' to 'kill'.

Woody: (sarcastically) Oh, great, great{!} Yeah, and if anyone attacks us, we can blink 'em to death.

"Wow." said Joy. "Who ever would've thought we'd see such disturbing things in Sid's house."

"Yeah." Jessie said. "Good job Andy's new house was not near him."

"I agree." Disgust said. She asked the FilmMaster, "Where's the bathroom?"

"Just out the door, turn left and it's 3 doors down. Make sure to go in the females toilet." the FilmMaster said.

Disgust didn't need to be told twice. She left her seat, and bolted off towards the bathroom. Only seconds later, Carl followed her, heading for the male toilet.

And Bentley headed off in his wheelchair, being thankful the FilmMaster had put ramps for his wheelchair, and set off for the disabled toilet.

Everyone watched them leave, bewildered. 

"I... suppose we'll just wait for them then." said Jimmy Neutron.

Chapter 10: I Will Go Sailing No More

Chapter Text

It was a good few minutes till Disgust, Carl, and Bentley returned.

"Feeling better, Carl?" Jimmy asked. 

"Certainly, Jimmy." said Carl.

"Nothing like letting off your sickness over hideous, disgusting mutant toys." Disgust agreed.

"Yeah, Disgust, you said it." Bentley said.

Once the 3 were seated again, the FilmMaster started the film up again.

[Cut to Andy's House. Rex & Slinky are looking for Buzz, with Rex shining a flashlight outside. Suddenly, they heard a rustle in the bushes. Rex points the flashlight beam at the shaking bushes.]

Rex: Hey, you guys, I think I found him! [shouts] Buzz?! Is that you?!

[A cat's yowl is heard.]

Rex: Whiskers! Will you get out of here?! You're interfering with the search and rescue!

[Then they heard Andy's Mom's car pull up to the house, and Rex turned off the torch to prevent them from seeing the light]

Rex: (whispering) Look! They're home!

[The car pulls up and stops. Andy and his mom get out]

Andy: Mom, have you seen Woody?

Andy's Mom: Where was the last place you left him?

Andy: Right here in the van.

[The toys listened to their conversation]

Andy's Mom: Oh, I'm sure he's there; You're just not looking hard enough.

Andy: He's not here, Mom. Woody's gone!

"Gone?" Julieta said, devastated. Hearing that began to trigger some bad memories for the Madrigal family - most notably, the fact that Mirabel Madrigal ran away from the Encanto, after Casita collasped and the magic faded.

Bo Peep: (gasps) Woody's gone?

Hamm: Ah, boy, the weasel ran away.

Mr. Potato Head: Huh?! Huh?! I told you he was guilty!

"Honestly, Potato Head!" sighed Jessie, still cross that Mr Potato Head had still blamed Woody for Buzz's 'accident'.

[He and Hamm move away from the window]

Rex: Who would've thought he was capable of such atrocities?!

[As Rex follows Mr. Potato Head and Hamm, Slinky and Bo look at each other, crestfallen at Woody's disappearance]

Bo Peep: Oh, Slink, I hope he's okay.

"Me too." said Cindy.

"You and me both, Cindy." Libby agreed.

[As the camera shifts to Sid's house, the scene changes to morning]

Sid: [offscreen] Oh, a survivor. Where is the rebel base? Talk!!!!!!!!!!!!!

[He throws Woody to the ground and walks over to the window]

Sid: (as Interrogator) I can see your will is strong.

[He opened the blind that was blocking the sun]

Sid: Well, we have ways of making you talk.

[He took out a magnifying glass and used it to aim the sunlight on Woody's forehead, making it smoulder]

"Oh my god." Alma gasped. "I can't believe he's going this far to destroy jugetes!"

"It'll get worse." The FilmMaster said. "Believe me."

"What do you mean?" Alma asked.

The FilmMaster just ignored her.

Sid:(as Interrogator) Where are your rebel friends now? [sinister chuckle]

The audience grimaced at the close sight of Sid's mouth and braces.

Sid's Mom: [offscreen] Sid, your Pop Tarts are ready!

Sid: Alright!

[He throws the magnifying glass away and runs out of the room. Woody unfreezes and feels the burning on his forehead. Woody jumps up, and screams. ]

[He ran to a bowl of half-eaten cereal (with milk) on the floor, and dunks his head in.]

"Gross!" Fear exclaimed.

"Agreed," Julieta said. "Or is that you, Bruno?" she asked her brother.

"Hey, I can't help it if being stressed gives me sweaty feet," Bruno said.

[Buzz runs over to Woody, pausing to remove two suction cup darts from his person before pulling Woody out of the bowl. Two colourful Froot-Loops stick to each of Woody's eyes like glasses]

Buzz: Are you alright? I'm proud of you, Sheriff. [Pats Woody on his back, making the Froot Loops fall into the bowl.] A lesser man would have talked under such torture.

[Woody picks up a spoon and looks at the smoulder mark in his reflection]

Woody: I sure hope this isn't permanent.

"That's bad damage." Hamm said.

Buzz Lightyear: (checking his wrist communicator) Still no word from Star Command. We're not that far from the spaceport--

"Is he talking about Pizza Planet again?" asked Hugh.

[Just then, Woody sees the door in the reflection of the spoon - It's open]

Woody: The door! It's open! We're free!!

"Hooray!" cheered Carl.

Buzz Lightyear: Woody, we don't know what's out there!

Woody: I'll tell you wha... [screams]

(The mutant toys suddenly appear and block their path to the doorway. Woody hides behind Buzz.)

Everyone became shocked and horrified at seeing the mutant toys again.

"Aw come on!" Ratchet groaned. "Not them again!"

"Yarooh!" Carl said. 

Everyone looked at him.

"I took my 'hooray' back." he said quietly.

Woody: They're gonna eat us, Buzz!! Do something, quick!

Buzz Lightyear: Shield your eyes!

[Woody Shields his eyes, and Buzz fires his laser at Babyface, but it just flickers on her forehead]

The FilmMaster was very quick to notice that his whole audience were shielding their eyes.

"What on earth are you doing?" he asked.

"Well," said Qwark, "Buzz said to shield our eyes, so that's what we did."

The FilmMaster facepalmed.

Buzz Lightyear: It's not working! I recharged it before I left! It should be good for --

Woody: [grabs Buzz] You idiot! You're a toy! Use your karate chop action!

[He presses a button on Buzz's back, which makes his right arm move up and down like a karate chop, as they advance around the mutant toys toward the door]

Woody: (to mutants) Get away! Hoo-cha! Hoo-cha!

"That is cool!" Mitchell said. "Just like in 'Fists of Lightning'!"

Buzz Lightyear: Hey!! Hey! How are you doing that? Stop that!

Woody: Back! Back, you savages! Back!

Buzz Lightyear: Woody, stop it!

Woody: [to the mutant toys] Sorry guys, but dinner's cancelled!

[He drops Buzz and runs out into the hallway upstairs]

Woody: There's no place like home! There's no place like home! [runs down the stairs] There's no place like home!

"That sounds familiar." said Lady.

[Immediately, Woody saw Scud, fast asleep on the stairs]

"Yikes." Penelope said. "Scud doesn't look any prettier close up."

"Well, he's not a vicious dog for nothing." said Nina. "I so wanna adopt him!"

[Woody crept back up the stairs as slowly as he could. Suddenly Buzz appears and pulls Woody back against the hallway wall. He covers Woody's mouth with his hand.)

Woody: (muffled gasp)

Buzz Lightyear: [ANGRILY] Another stunt like that, cowboy, you're gonna get us killed!

Woody: [pushes Buzz's hand away] Don't tell me what to do!

Buzz Lightyear: Shhh!

"Dios mio, that Scud is scary," Bruno said.

Embarrassment cuddled Bruno tightly.

"Eh, I've seen scarier things in Riley's nightmares." Ennui sighed.

(Buzz checks to make sure Scud is still asleep and then darts across the stairwell opening to the other end of the hallway. Once safely across, he motions for Woody to follow. Woody cowardly crawls on all fours across the open area and meets up with Buzz. They glance at Scud, still asleep on the stairs.]

"This is going well," said Megamind. 

"It won't be for long, though, Boss." said Minion doubtfully.

[As he stands, Woody's pull-string ring gets caught on one of the curls of the wrought iron railing. The toys begin to creep down the hallway, unaware that Woody's pull-string is being pulled farther and farther until it snaps off the iron railing and flies back toward Woody. His voice box starts up)

Woody: [Voice Box] Yeeeehaaaw!! Giddy-up partner!... We got to get this wagon train a movin'!

At that, everyone facepalmed.

[The noise from the voice box wakes Scud up, and he slowly starts walking up the stairs. Woody and Buzz look worried]

Buzz Lightyear: Split up!

"Andale! Rapido!" Victor Delgado called.

"He's coming!" said Dolores.

Sally gasped, and covered her eyes.

(Two doors are ajar at the other end of the hallway. Buzz dives behind one while Woody jumps into a closet. Woody slams the door shut just as Scud reaches the top of the landing. In the other room, Buzz peeks out from his doorway at Scud sniffing and growling at the closet. Sensing movement behind him, Scud whips around and starts to enter the doorway, when a snoring noise gets his attention. Both Scud & Buzz look up to see a huge adult man, Sid's father, asleep in what seems to be a La-Z-Boy recliner in front of the flickering TV in the room.]

"Whoa." Ennui said, in amazement at what she was seeing. "A fellow lazybones. I like it."

"Well," said Joy, "I think we might ask Dream Productions to make a film of that for Riley when we're back in our dimension."

"Why on earth does he just laze around all day in front of the TV?" asked Mr Potato Head. "That is one big couch spud."

"You didn't know," said Sly Cooper, "cos you weren't in Sid's house."

Mr Potato Head scowled.

"Really," Alma began, "I think he should be enforcing discipline to his son."

[Scud carefully slips out of the room, and walks off down the landing, and turns off down the stairs, observed by Buzz.]

"Ok." said the FilmMaster to the audience, "Now, here's where it gets to the next turning point."

"Is this where he snaps outta his delusional state?" Anger asked.

"Yes, yes it is." the FilmMaster said. "Let's see, shall we?"

He started the film again.

VO: Calling Buzz Lightyear. Come in Buzz Lightyear. This is Star Command. Buzz Lightyear! Do you read me?

[Buzz turns to see a commercial on TV, to which his logo appears]

Buzz Lightyear: [gasps] Star Command!

[He opens his wrist communicator and is about to reply when a child's voice interrupts him]

Child: Buzz Lightyear responding! Read you loud and clear!

[Buzz looks towards the TV and saw it shows a boy holding a Buzz Lightyear toy in a cardboard spaceship like his own]

VO: Buzz Lightyear, Planet Earth needs your help!

Boy: On the way!

Male Chorus: BUZZ LIGHTYEAR!!!!

[Buzz stares in disbelief as he watches the commercial]

"So that must be the commercial for the Buzz Lightyear toy?" Anxiety asked. 

"I guess Buzz Lightyear toys were all the rage back then." Buzz said.

"Wow!" said Envy in awe. "I want a Buzz Lightyear toy!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!"

VO 2: The world's greatest superhero, now the world's greatest toy! Buzz has it all! Locking wrist communicator!

Boy: Calling Buzz Lightyear!

VO 2: Karate chop action!

Boy: Wow!

[With every feature demonstrated on the TV, Buzz compares the same feature on himself]

VO 2: Pulsating laser light!

Boy: Total annihilation!

VO 2: Multi-phrase voice simulator!

TV Buzz's voice box: There's a secret mission in uncharted space.

[Buzz presses the same button on his chest and it makes the same phrase the TV Buzz made]

Buzz's Voice Box: There's a secret mission in uncharted space.

VO 2: And best of all... (big "monster truck" voice) HIGH! PRESSURE! SPACE! WINGS!

TV Buzz: To Infinity and Beyond!

[Buzz also shows off a 'glow in the dark' feature. The words NOT A FLYING TOY appear at the bottom of the screen]

VO 3: (non-excited lawyer voice) Not a flying toy.

[Buzz slowly shakes his head in wide-eyed disbelief. The commercial shows more Buzz Lightyears]

VO 2: Get your Buzz Lightyear action figure and save a galaxy near you!!!!!

Male Chorus: BUZZ LIGHTYEAR!!!!

[The image on the screen changes to a shot of hundreds of Buzzes in their boxes lining either side of a store aisle]

VO: Available at all 'Al's Toy Barn' outlets in the tri-county area.

"Al's Toy Barn?" said Rex, puzzled. "That sounds familiar."

"Sure does." Slinky Dog said.

[The Commercial ends]

Sportscaster: And welcome back to the Point Richmond Bowling Championship.

[Buzz look shocked, then opens his wrist communicator. He saw the words 'MADE IN TAIWAN'. He looks stunned at the truth that Woody was trying to tell him all along. The song 'I Will Go Sailing No More' plays as Buzz walks sadly out of the room and down the hallway.]

Out among the stars I sail
Way beyond the moon
In my silver ship I sailed
To a dream that ended too soon
Now I know exactly who I am and what I'm here for

[As he passes the top of the stairwell, he pauses to look up through the railing at a small open window, revealing the blue sky beyond. A bird flies past. The taunting voice of Woody echoes in his head.)

Woody's Voice: You are a toy! You can't fly!

"How'd you do that?" Camilo asked Woody out of curiosity. "You were still in the closet."

"Don't force it." Felix told him sternly.

(Buzz bows his head, defeated.]

And I will go sailing
No more

[Slowly, Buzz raises his head, determination in his eyes. He slams his wrist communicator shut as if he's defying what the words say. He climbs up the railing]

But no, it can't be true,
I could fly if I wanted to

[Buzz climbs onto the banister, pops open his wings and aims himself toward the window above.)]

Like a bird in the sky
If I believed I could fly
Why, I'd flyyyyyyyyyyyyyyyyyyyy.......

[Buzz looks toward the window, determined to prove that he can fly and that he really IS a Space Ranger]

Buzz Lightyear:  To Infinity, and beyond!!!

(Buzz leaps from the banister, hoping to fly, but alas, it isn't meant to be. Gravity takes hold of Buzz, and In slow motion, Buzz watches his square of blue sky pull farther away from him as he plummets to the stairs. He bounces off the stair, flips, and lands on the entryway floor. Buzz opens his eyes to see his severed left arm, which came off in the crash. The broken arm lies a few inches away from his now empty arm socket.)

Clearly, I will go sailing, no more.

(Buzz drops his head back in defeat, realizing he's a toy after all.]

Everyone watched this moment, with stunned, saddened, and downright distraught expressions.

Half of them tried their best to fight back their tears, especially Victor & Carla Delgado. Victor was hugging his daughter tightly, so as to stop her crying.

[As the song ends, Hannah walks into the entryway, looking for something.]

Hannah: Mom! Mom, have you seen my Sally doll?

[She steps on Buzz's wing, and looks down to see him]

Sid's Mom: [offscreen] What, dear? What was that?

Hannah: [picks up Buzz and his arm] Never mind!

[She looks at Buzz with a smile on her face.]

Andy's toys immediately snapped out of the saddened stupor, and all started shouting.

"Hey, that's not her toy!!!" cried Rex.

"What does that girl think she's doing?" cried Slinky.

"Honestly, doesn't she know that that toy doesn't belong to her?" sighed Becky.

"No." said the FilmMaster, "because if she did, she'd return it to Andy straight away, and then how would we have the thrilling climax of the story?"

"Now who's revealing spoilers?" Camilo joked.

Immediately, the FilmMaster flew his chair toward Camilo, and gave him a mighty slap in the face. "OWWWCH!!!!" Camilo groaned.

Pepa and Felix quicklly stifled chuckles at that.

Chapter 11: Window to Andy's

Chapter Text

[Back upstairs, the doorknob to the closet jiggles. The door opens, and Woody, wrapped up in Christmas lights, falls off the shelves and onto the floor. A bowling ball hits Woody on the head and rolls away.]

Everyone winced at what a painful thing that had happened.

"Bet that hurt," said Jimmy Neutron.

"Do it again, I wasn't looking!" Sheen called, and Jimmy gave him a very dirty look.

Woody: [a bit woozy from the ball hitting him] Buzz, the coast is clear. (shakes his head to get the wooziness off and looks around for Buzz) Buzz, where are you?

Buzz Lightyear: [voice box, offscreen] There's a secret mission in uncharted space! Let's go!

[Hearing the noise, Woody creeps down the hallway, dragging the Christmas lights with him.)

Hannah: [offscreen] Really? That is so interesting.

(Woody peeks into the open doorway of Hannah's bedroom. Hannah is pretending to have a tea party. Her guests are 2 dolls, and a stuffed bear, all of which are headless, except for Buzz. He is seated at the miniature table, dressed up in a frilly apron and fashionable party hat.)

Seeing the whole scene in front of them, including seeing Buzz in such a stupid outfit, gave the cast some very weird mixed reactions. Some were quite shocked at how the dolls at the table were headless, but others thought it was quite strange how Buzz looked.

Most of them, Disgust, as one, were appalled by the style of the outfit Buzz was wearing.

"OH no no no," said Disgust sternly. "You can NOT have green and pink together! They clash!!!"

"I think the hat looks nice," Templeton said.

"Templeton, it's a girl's hat," said Becky.

Clank and Rivet, on the other hand, were eying the headless dolls and stuffed bear.

"Oh boy," Clank said. "I guess Sid tortured those dolls and stuffed bear as well."

"Uh-huh. No denying it, Bolts." Rivet said.

Hannah: Would you like some tea, Mrs. Nesbitt?

Woody: [gasps] Buzz!

(Hannah has placed a tiny teapot in Buzz's severed arm and pours imaginary tea with it.)

Hannah: It's so nice you could join us on such late notice.

Woody: [steps back into the hallway] Oh, no!

Hannah: What a lovely hat, Mrs. Nesbit. It goes quite well with your head.

[Woody got an idea. He steps into the hallway, and clears his throat]

Woody: (imitating Sid's mother's voice) Hannah! Oh, Hannah!

Victor & Carla Delgado stared with dumbshocked expressions.

"That is literally the dumbest woman's voice imitation I've ever heard," Carla said bluntly.

"Carla, let me handle this, por favor." Victor said. "That woman's voice imitation is just the worst."

"That is known to be very offensive." Judy Neutron snapped to Carla and Victor. "And here I thought you and your daughter were good guys now."

"Don't make me come down there or I am gonna slap you so hard, you'll want your son to fly you to the nearest hospital in your rocket," Victor said crossly.

Immediately, Victor Delgado got electrocuted by the FilmMaster, which immediately shut him up.

[Hannah looks up, hearing Woody's voice, thinking it's her mom]

Hannah: Mom? (to her dolls) Please excuse me, ladies. I'II be right back.

(she gets up and leaves the room. As soon as Hannah exits the room, Buzz keels over face-down onto the table. Hannah passes Woody, hidden in the Christmas lights, and walks downstairs.)

Hannah: What is it, Mom? Mom, where are you?

[As soon as Hannah's out of sight, Woody bolts into her room and goes straight to Buzz]

Woody: Buzz! Hey, Buzz! Are you okay?

[Buzz unfreezes and wails in a drunken despair]

Buzz Lightyear: (imitating Jean Shepherd from A Christmas Story) GONE!!!! [sniffs] It's all gone! All of it's gone. Bye-bye! Whoo-hoo! See ya!

"Oh goodness." said Tighten. "He sounds like Dad after Mom's divorce from when I was 8. He drunk nothing but beer all day, and said those same lines as well."

[Woody looks at his broken arm with a curious look]

Woody: What happened to you?!

Buzz Lightyear: One minute you're defending the whole galaxy. And suddenly you find yourself suckin' down Darjeeling with... [pointing at other dolls] Marie Antoinette and her little sister. [chuckles]

(The headless dolls turn and wave.)

"That looks NOTHING like Marie Antoinette." Prince Charming said. "God, I've seen weirder girls than her."

Immediately, the FilmMaster electrocuted the prince.

[Woody removes the teapot from the severed arm and sets it on the table]

Woody: I think you've had enough tea for today. (helps Buzz up) Let's get you out of here, Buzz.

Buzz Lightyear: Don't you get it?! You see the hat?! I am Mrs. Nesbit!! (goes into hysterical laughter)

Everyone groaned in annoyance.

"Ugh! Will someone shut this guy up?!" sighed Becky.

Woody: Snap out of it, Buzz!

[As Buzz continues laughing crazily, Woody opens his helmet, knocking off the hat, and slaps him with his own broken arm before closing it again]

"Thank you," said Becky.

Buzz Lightyear: I-I-I'm... I'm sorry, I- [takes the severed arm from Woody.] You're right; I'm just a little depressed, that's all. [he walks out of the room while Woody follows.] I-I-I can get through this.

"3, 2, 1." The FilmMaster whispered.

Buzz Lightyear: [reaches the center of the hallway and drops to his knees, entering a mental breakdown] OH, I'M A SHAM!!

Woody: SHHHHHHHH! Quiet, Buzz!!!

"Yeah!" said Fear, "Hannah, Sid or Scud will hear you!!! And possibly Sid's father too!!!"

Buzz Lightyear: Look at me, I can't even fly out of a window! [motions to the window that he tried to fly to earlier] But... the hat looked good? Tell me the hat looked good. The apron is a bit much....

[As Buzz talks, Woody stares at the window that Buzz tried to fly to earlier, then looks down the hallway in the direction of Sid's room. Woody can see straight out Sid's window across the way to Andy's bedroom window.)

Woody: Out the window! Buzz, you're a genius! [picks up the Christmas lights and drags the still wailing Buzz down the hallway to Sid's room.] Come on, this way.

Buzz Lightyear: [wailing] Years of Academy training, wasted!

"Is he having adolescence?" Mitchell asked.

"MITCHELL!!!" shouted everyone in the room.

"What?" said a confused Mitchell.

[In Andy's room, Mr. Potato Head and Hamm are playing the Battleship game]

Mr. Potato Head: [chuckles] B-3.

Hamm: [wearing Potato Head's hat] Miss! G-6.

Mr. Potato Head: Oh! You sunk it!

[Hamm chuckles]

Mr. Potato Head: Are you peeking?

Hamm: Oh, quit your whining and pay up. [as Mr. Potato Head tries to take out his ear] No, no, not the ear. Give me the nose, come on.

Mr. Potato Head: [takes his nose off with the moustache still attached] How about 3 out of 5?

"Is that like strip darts?" said Bob. "Lucius and I played that on our days off before supers were made illegal."

"Bob!" Helen said, disturbed. "Not in front of the kids!!"

[Woody opens the window and calls out to Mr. Potato Head and Hamm]

Woody: Hey, guys! Guys! Hey!

[Mr. Potato Head and Hamm look to see Woody in Sid's window]

Mr. Potato Head: Son of a building block! It's Woody! [puts his nose back on]

Hamm: He's in the psycho's bedroom!

Woody: [waving and laughing] Hi!

Hamm: [to the other toys offscreen] Everyone! It's Woody!

Bo Peep: Woody?

Rex: [pops out of a box] You're kidding?

Slinky Dog: Woody!

(Slinky, Bo Peep and Rex head to the window. In Sid's House]

Woody: Ah, we're gonna get outta here, Buzz! [notices that Buzz is not there] Buzz?

(He looks toward the floor, and sees Buzz is sitting on the floor, still wearing his pink apron, playing 'bombs away' with his broken arm; imitating divebombing a plane with crashing and exploding.]

"Ay. This is just sad." Victor Delgado groaned.

"Si." sighed Mirabel. She remembered when Osvaldo mocked her for not being special like her family, since she didn't have a gift.

"You've got to snap out of it, Buzz!" said Percy.

[The rest of Andy's toys gather around the window to see Woody. Mr Potato Head reclaims his hat from Hamm]

Rex: Hey, look!

Bo Peep: Woody!

Woody: [excited] Oh Boy, am I glad to see you guys!

Slinky Dog: I knew you'd come back, Woody!

Bo Peep: What are you doing over there?!

Woody: It's a long story, Bo. I'll explain later. [gets out the Christmas Lights] Here! Catch this! [tosses one end of the Christmas lights over to Andy's house]

Bo Peep; Ha!

Slinky Dog: Whoa! [catches the end of the lights] I got it, Woody!

Rex: (overly excited) He got it, Woody!

"Great!" said Dash excitedly. "They'll be home in no time! And Woody will be able to show them Buzz isn't dead!"

"Oh, I wouldn't be too sure about that, Dash," the FilmMaster said.

Woody: Good goin', Slink! Now, just, just tie it on to something.

Mr. Potato Head: [excitedly] Wait, wait, wait, wait! I got a better idea! [angrily] How 'bout we DON'T?! [He snatches the lights from Slinky]

Slinky Dog: Hey!

Bo Peep: Potato Head!

The audience went into a total uproar over Mr Potato Head's annoyance.

"Potato Head, that wasn't very nice!" Jessie snapped. 

"Yeah!" snapped Mrs Potato Head. "I'm very close to filing for a divorce!"

Mr Potato Head faltered, as if trying to come up with an excuse, but all he could do was stutter, and stammer.

Mr. Potato Head: Did you all take stupid pills this morning?! Have you forgotten what he did to Buzz?! And now you want to let him back over here?!

Woody: No, no, no, no no no no no! You got it- You got it all wrong, Potato Head! Buzz is fine! Buzz is right here, he's with me!

Mr. Potato Head: You are a liar!!!!

Woody No, I'm not! [to Buzz] Buzz, come over here and you just tell the nice toys that you're- that you're not dead.

[Buzz doesn't respond - He's too busy peeling off the sticker off his wrist communicator, and crumpling it up]

Woody: [TO THE TOYS] Just a sec! [walks over to the edge of the desk] Buzz, will you get up here and give me a hand?

[Buzz tosses his severed arm up onto the desk.]

"Well, you did say you wanted a hand. And you got one." Clank said to Woody, doing his trademark laugh.

"That joke just seemed forced, pal." Ratchet deadpanned.

Woody: (sarcastic laughs] That's very funny, Buzz. (exploding) This is serious!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!

Rex: (offscreen) Hey, Woody, where'd ya go?

Mr. Potato Head: (offscreen) He's lying! Buzz ain't there.

[Woody suddenly appears at the window]

Woody: (forced casualness) Oh, hi, Buzz! Why don't you say hello to the guys over there? [Then, he waves Buzz's arm from the side of the window, whilst imitating Buzz's voice] 'Hiya, fellas! To infinity and beyond!'

"Oye." sighed Alma in annoyance. "This is never gonna work."

"Well, it's nearly as good as Dad's monkey impression," Joy said, trying to be positive.

Rex: Hey, look! It's Buzz!

Woody: (shaking the arm's hand) Yeah, hey Buzz, let's show the guys our new secret best-friends handshake. Gimme five, man! (High fives with the hand)

"How on earth is it a secret if he's telling them?" asked Fiona, quite puzzled and annoyed by the illogicality that was going on right there.

Hamm: (irritated) Something's screwy here.

Woody: So, you see; We're friends now, guys. Aren't we, Buzz? [imitating Buzz) 'You bet. Gimme a hug.'

[he makes Buzz's arm grasp him for a hug]

Woody: Ha, ha, oh, boy, I love you, too.

Slinky Dog: [to Potato Head] See? It is Buzz. Now give back the lights, Potato Head.

Mr. Potato Head: [holds the lights outta Slinky's reach] Wait just a minute. [shouting across to Woody] What are you trying to pull?!

Woody: [shrugging] Nothing!

[The toys suddenly recoil in horror and Bo Peep scream in fright. Woody soon realizes why - he's accidentally revealed Buzz's broken arm to the toys. He tries to hide it, but it's too late.]

Those in the audience [minus the Toy Story 1 cast] suddenly gasped and screamed, all acting like they hadn't seen Buzz's arm come off before, even though they had already seen it. Pepa immediately hid Antonio's eyes.

[Rex clasps his hands to his mouth and turns away to barf.)

Hamm: Oh, that is disgusting!

Mr. Potato Head: (raging furious) MURDERER!!!!!!

"No, please don't show this!" Mr Potato Head begged the FilmMaster.

"Too late, it's out of my hands." The FilmMaster responded with a soft chuckle.

All Potato Head could do was take out his eyes and not even look at it.

Woody: No! No, no, no, no!

Mr. Potato Head: You murdering dog!!!!

Woody: No, it's not what you think, I swear!

Mr. Potato Head: [Angrily to Woody] Save it for the jury! I hope Sid pulls your voice-box out, ya creep!

[He lets go of the lights, making them fall.]

Woody: NO, NO! NO, NO, DON’T LEAVE, DON’T LEAVE! [The other end of the lights falls out of the window, making it too late for him to grab them] You've gotta help us, please! You don't know what it's like over here!

"No no no!" Sadness wailed, crying like she always did.

[The toys slowly leave the window, Rex [after doing his barf act], Bo Peep leaves, hanging her head]

Mr. Potato Head: Come on. Let's get out of here. [leaves whilst lowering his hat mobster style]

Hamm: Go back to your lives, citizens. Show's over. [leaves]

Woody: [sobbing offscreen] Come back!

The audience awwed in sadness and groaned in annoyance.

[Only Slinky is left at the window, looking saddened and disturbed. He turns to leave.]

Woody: [desperate] Slink! Slink, please! Please! Listen to me!

[Slinky just looks sad and pulls the blinds down]

Woody: No! No! Come back! [sobs] SLI-I-I-INKYYY!!

[Dark storm clouds loom overhead As Woody slumps on the windowsill in defeat.)

"What did I say?" said Alma in annoyance. "I told you it would never work."

"You don't have to rub it in!" snapped Woody.

Mirabel was focused on the storm clouds on the screen. "Those storm clouds look like those Tia Pepa makes when unhappy." she said.

Pepa, who was comforting Antonio, realizes her niece was right. "Oye, excuse me, por favor. What are the big stormclouds for?" she asked the FilmMaster.

"That's part of the twist for later." he told her.

Hopefully things would get better, right?

Chapter 12: Buzz Gets Fixed/The Big One/Rainstorm

Notes:

(See the end of the chapter for notes.)

Chapter Text

"Oh boy." the FilmMaster sighed. "Things ain't looking too good for Woody and Buzz."

"I hope they get back to Andy soon." Murray said. "I can't bear to see what Sid might do to them next if they don't."

"Well Murray," The FilmMaster said, "You're technically half-right on that one."

"I am?" said Murray. "I mean, I am, uh, what are we talking about?"

"He's talking about Sid." Sly Cooper said.

"Right," Murray said. "I see.

"OK." the FilmMaster said. "Let's get back to Toy Story."

He started the film again, right at the point where Woody was slumped on the windowsill in defeat after his failed attempt to get back to Andy's.

"OK." said Camilo. "Woody's just had another attempt at getting back to Andy foiled, no thanks to Mr Potato face there."

"That's Mr Potato Head to you, you ugly chameleon!" Mr Potato Head snapped.

"Exactly." Camilo said. "At least things can't get much worse, right?"

"Camilo, you should never say things like that." Alma said.

"Why not, Abuela?" asked Camilo.

She directed his attention to the screen.

[Woody heard some Broken toy sounds emit from behind him. He turns from the window to see the Mutant Toys converging all around Buzz.)

Woody: [shocked] BUZZ!!!

Everyone else was worried and horrified about Buzz.

"Me and my big mouth." Camilo muttered.

"Oh, no!" gasped Princess Fiona.

"Wait a minute, wasn't Buzz just wearing an apron?" Donkey said.

"No time to question the logic of this movie, Donkey!" said Shrek. "Woody had better go and rescue him!"

[Still holding onto Buzz's arm, Woody jumps down from the desk and runs to Buzz's rescue.]

Woody: Go away, you disgusting freaks! AAAAGH!

[Babyface turns over and grabs Buzz's arm with her erector-set pinchers with which Woody is shielding himself] 

Woody: Alright, back! Back, you cannibals!

[Woody loses his grip on the arm and sails across the room, crashing into the wall, with his head upside down. From where he is, there is no sight of Buzz within the swarming mass of mutant toys.]

"Oh, it's horrible!" said Mr Potato Head. "They're torturing him!"

"You're darn right it's horrible!" exclaimed Jessie, who was hiding her face with her hat.

Carla & Victor hugged each other anxiously.

[Woody attacks the mob with a vengeance.)

Woody: [ANgrily] He is still alive, and you're not gonna get him, you monsters!!!!!

"Oooh those juguetes mutantes are monstruos!!!!" Pepa snapped, somewhat glad she didn't have her cloud forming over her head right now. "I swear, if they've hurt Buzz...."

"Now hold on, Pepa," said the FilmMaster, "I think there's a lot more to the mutant toys than what we know."

"WHAT IS THERE?!?!" Pepa shouted. "They attacked Hannah's doll that Sid ruined!"

"Watch." the FilmMaster said.

(He furiously throws the mutant toys aside, digging his way to Buzz, who is now sitting up, his broken arm now reattached. Woody's anger turns to confusion.)

Woody: Hey?! Hey, they fixed you!

"What!?!" said a confused Pepa. 

"They fixed him?" said Luisa.

Everyone else was confused as well.

"Someone punch me, I must be dreaming." said Fear.

Anger immediately did. He punched Fear in his gut, and he fell right off his seat. "Still awake." Fear said, clutching his chest.

[Woody moves Buzz's arm to see if what he saw is true]

"Si. His arm, it's fixed!" said Mirabel.

[Woody looks toward the mutant toys]

Woody: But... but they're cannibals; We saw them eat those other toys!

[The mutant toys step back to reveal Janie and the pterodactyl, who have been repaired as well; their heads are back on the right bodies, with tape around their repaired necks and heads. The mutant toys look innocently at Woody]

"So," said the FilmMaster to the audience, "Do you all get it now?"

The audience looked at each other with varying amounts of confusion. How could such ugly toy creatures be so kind?

At last, Thomas spoke.

"I think I get it, Mr FilmMaster." Thomas said. "Sid's mutant toys are friendly toys, just like the ones in Andy's room."

The audience all agreed with the number 1 tank engine.

"Sadly, the rest of Andy's toys never got to meet the mutant toys in Sid's room," Camilo said, which ultimately earned him a slap on the face by Felix.

"I guess they must've helped Janie and the pterodactyl after Sid pulled their heads off and put the pterodactyl head on Janie's body." Agustin said.

"And then they fixed them and put their heads back on the right bodies." Luisa said, "You're right Papa."

"Those Mutant Toys do look scary and weird-looking, but they're nice on the inside." Sally said. "Just like the residents of Halloween Town." said Jack Skellington, and Sally agreed. "Which, sadly, can't be said for some that I should mention," he added, motioning to Oogie Boogie, and he especially remembered Lock, Shock, and Barrel, the trouble-making pranksters.

"And like Shrek & Fiona!" Donkey added. Fiona knew that was true - because of the spell the witch put her under, she turned into an ogress at night, but deep down, she was still the same Princess Fiona on the inside.

Sadness remembered how nice Embarrassment had been when he rescued her.

Kit remembered how nice Ratchet had been to her when he met her whilst searching for Clank, and had even called her a good partner, after forging a new Dimensionator.

"Man, and all this time, we were jumping to conclusions!" Mitchell said.

Woody: [sheepishly] Uh, sorry. I-I-I thought that you were gonna... [laughs nervously] ...you know, you know, eat my friend.

[The Mutant Toys, Janie, and the pterodactyl immediately retreat to the dark shadows of Sid's room]

Woody: Hey! No, no, wait! Hey! What's wrong?

Sid's Mom: [offscreen] Sid?

[Woody looks to the door where he heard Sid's voice]

Sid Phillips: Not now, Mom, I'm busy!

Woody: Sid!

"Sid's back! That's what's wrong!" Mirabel said.

"Uh-oh." said Bob Parr.

Sid's Mom: [offscreen] You left that door open!

[Woody tries to pick up Buzz, but he just went limp]

Woody: Buzz! C'mon, get up! Use your legs!

[He tried dragging Buzz, but the progress is way too slow]

Woody: Fine! Let Sid trash you, but don't blame me!

"Oh dear." said Nick sarcastically. "Abandoning him again. How very subtle."

"Don't make me slap you, Nick!" Cindy shouted.

(Woody leaves Buzz sitting alone in the middle of the floor and hides underneath a nearby milkcrate just as Sid enters carrying a big box.)

Sid: It came! It finally came! [He turns on his light and opens his package.]

"That's the package he mentioned earlier." Carla said. "Si." Victor agreed. "And I'll eat my toenails if it's a device Sid will plan to use to torture jugetes."

Sid: (reverently) The Big One.

[He pulls out a big firework rocket which has 'THE BIG ONE' written on the side of it]

Sid: (reading the rocket label) "Extremely dangerous. Keep out of reach of children." Cool...

"No, it's not cool!" Alma shouted, now totally enraged. "It's another way for that demonio boy Sid to destroy jugetes!"

"Told ya." Victor Delgado said.

"Holy cow." Coco Bandicoot said.

"Honestly," sighed Judy Neutron. "It's what they call a rocket."

"Well, it's not really, a rocket, Mom." Jimmy said. "It's more a firework-type thing."

"I told you before, James Isaac Neutron, I don't care what type thing it is." Judy snapped.

Sid: [looks around] What am I gonna blow? Man... hey, where's that wimpy cowboy doll?

(Sid spots the milkcrate and picks it up; there's nothing under it. Out of Sid's view, Woody presses against the inside, hanging on for dear life. As Sid looks around, he accidentally steps on Buzz's laser, beeping it. He looks down]

Sid: Yes! [picks up Buzz] I've always wanted to put a spaceman into orbit.

(He places Buzz and the milkcrate on the workbench and throws a toolbox on top of the crate. The impact of the toolbox dislodges Woody from his hiding place. Woody quickly ducks under a magazine on the floor of the crate "jail." Woody watches helplessly as Sid fishes out a roll of electrical tape from the toolbox and, with an irreverent chuckle, tapes Buzz to the rocket.)

Sid: Now... Yes.

[He puts Buzz, taped to the rocket, on the desk, with a sinister chuckle.]

The audience felt mad and angry, most notably the Toy Story cast, including the ones who weren't at Sid's house, knowing Sid was gonna go this far to blow up toys now.

But some, like Mirabel and Luisa, were worried for Buzz's safety.

"Ay ay ay! This is it!" Mirabel said.

"If Sid blows up Buzz, Woody will never be able to convince the other toys he never harmed Buzz!" Luisa said, hiding her face in her palms.

"Well, what's the point? They won't listen to him anyway." Camilo pointed out with a sharp deadpan.

"Camilo, that's not helpful!" Felix snapped.

Immediately, Camilo shrunk back into his seat.

"Mi amor, is this it?" Julieta asked worriedly, embracing her husband.

"I believe so, Juli." Agustin said, holding her.

"Ay." Bruno muttered. "Only a miracle could save Buzz Lightyear now!"

[Suddenly, as if on cue, a flash of lightning interrupts the moment, and then thunder rumbles. Sid sees a huge rainstorm commence.]

Sid Phillips: Oh, no!

[Sid crosses to the window to see the rain.]

Sid Phillips: Aw man...!

[he smacks his head against the window, annoyed. Woody breathes out with relief at this]

The audience was relieved at what had just happened. What were the odds that a sudden rainstorm would delay Sid's latest plot to destroy a toy?

"Now that was lucky." Joy said. "Couldn't agree more, Joy." Anxiety said.

"¡Gracias a Dios por una tormenta de lluvia bien cronometrada!" Felix said happily.

"I never thought I'd say this," said Pepa, "but for once, I'm glad there's rain."

"Me too, Tia Pepa." Mirabel agreed.

"What were the odds that would happen?" Slinky Dog said.

"Given by the fluctuation of weather patterns, climate change and factoring in the direction and strength of winds, it's quite a once-in-a-lifetime opportunity." Jimmy Neutron said.

"You can say that again, Neutron." said Mr Potato Head. "And I have no idea what he just said." he said to no one in particular.

[Sid's face brightens. He turns his focus from the rain to the Buzz Rocket in his hand.)

Sid: [pretending to be Newscaster] Sid Phillips reporting. Launch of the shuttle has been delayed due to adverse weather conditions at the launch site. Tomorrow's forecast... [smacks Buzz down on the desk, winds his freaky-looking alarm clock, and places it next to Buzz] ...sunny. [sinister chuckle] Sweet dreams.

The audience became unnerved. 

"He's gonna go through with it when the rain stops, isn't he." said Sly Cooper.

"Exactly, Ringtail." Carmelita said. "It's a miracle the police don't get hold of his antics due to what stuff he uses."

"Well, I use explosive stuff in my machines and experiments, and so far the cops haven't caught me yet." Dr Neo Cortex said bluntly.

[Cut to Andy's house, in Andy's room. Andy is awake in bed, still sad over missing his toys. His mom hands him his cowboy hat]

Andy's Mom: I looked everywhere, honey, but all I could find was your hat.

Andy: (sadly) But what if we leave them behind?

Andy's Mom: Oh, don't worry, honey, I'm sure we'll find Woody and Buzz before we leave tomorrow.

[Andy closes his eyes sadly. Andy's mom kisses Andy, turns off the light, and leaves the room.]

"Poor Andy." Sadness said. "He really misses Woody and Buzz."

"Agreed." Carla said. "I know how he felt." she added, remembering the time Ash Delgado took her father from her by turning him to stone, and she was put in the dungeon, and separated from him.

Julieta knew this too - she and her family missed Mirabel after she ran away.

[A moving box on the floor, with the words "Andy's Toys!" scrawled on it, begins to shake from side to side.)

Rex: [inside box, muffled] Ah! I need air!

[He opens the box and sticks his head out, coughing out Styrofoam packaging peanuts. Mr Potato Head pops out, visibly annoyed.]

Mr. Potato Head: Will you quit moving around?!

Rex: I'm sorry. It's just that I get.... I get so nervous before I travel.

Mr. Potato Head: How did I get stuck with YOU as a moving buddy? [goes back inside the box]

Rex: Everyone else was picked! [follows Potato Head as the box closes]

"I guess they still kept Woody's 'moving buddy' system, even after the whole disowning thing." said Jimmy Neutron.

"Si." Camilo agreed. "And guess who Potato Butt was stuck with." he added with a snicker.

Mr Potato Head sulked.

(Bo Peep peeks around the corner of one of the boxes and looks up at the sleeping Andy, clutching his cowboy hat.)

Bo Peep: [sadly] Oh, Woody. If only you could see how much Andy misses you.

"Well, he actually is." Woody said. "I can't believe Andy missed me that much."

"Me neither." Scamp said. He remembered seeing how sad his family were when they missed him, alongside Angel.

"Yeah." said Isabela. Suddenly, she smelt something. "Ay, what's that smell?"

They all looked, and there they saw Victor Delgado, who had taken off his footwear, and Goddard was using a toenail clipper to cut his toenails. The sweaty smelling musk that came from his bare feet made the audience groan and shudder.

The toenails were put on a plate, and Victor Delgado immediately started eating them, which in turn made the audience, and even the FilmMaster, quite disgusted.

"BATHROOM!!!" Disgust yelled, getting outta her seat, and bolting out the room towards the bathroom.

"Well," Victor Delgado said innocently, "I did say I'd eat my toenails if Sid's package was a new tool he would use to torture jugetes."

All Carla Delgado could do now was over her eyes in embarrassment.

It's true - even young women who formerly were villains, can have embarrassing parents.

Chapter 13: A Talk from Woody

Notes:

(See the end of the chapter for notes.)

Chapter Text

As soon as Disgust returned, and Victor Delgado had got his footwear back on, and the FilmMaster had got rid of the smell of foot odour, he started the movie back up again.

[Outside Sid's house, Thunder rumbles as rain pours down outside the spooky dwelling. In Sid's room, Sid is in bed, fast asleep. On the desk, Woody struggles to move his milk crate jail, but with the weight of the toolbox on top, it won't budge. Woody looks across the desktop at Buzz sitting dejectedly with the rocket strapped to his back.)

Woody: Ps-s-s-s-t! Psst! Hey, Buzz!

(Woody picks up a stray washer from the desktop and flings it at Buzz, striking his helmet. Buzz lifts his head and turns lifelessly to look at Woody.)

Woody: Hey, get over here and see if you can get this toolbox off me.

(Buzz just looks away from Woody and bows his head.)

"This is just sad." Ratchet sighed. "Just like Qwark when he lost the president election."

"Perhaps he needs someone to console him." Sadness said, remembering how she cheered up Bing Bong after his rocket ended up in the memory dump.

Woody: Oh, come on, Buzz. I... [kneels] Buzz, I can't do this without you. I need your help.

Buzz Lightyear: [sadly] I can't help. I can't help anyone.

Woody: Why, sure you can, Buzz. You can get me outta here; and then I'll get that rocket off you, and we'll make a break for Andy's house.

Buzz Lightyear: Andy's house, Sid's house. What's the difference?

"Well, Andy is nice and Sid is mean." Camilo said.

"That was a rhetorical question, Camilo." Felix told him sternly. "You weren't supposed to answer it."

Woody: Oh, Buzz. You've had a big fall. You must not be thinking clearly.

Buzz Lightyear: No, Woody, for the first time, I am thinking clearly. (looking at himself) You were right all along; I'm not a Space Ranger. I'm just a toy. A stupid little insignificant toy.

Woody: Whoa, hey. Wait a minute. Being a toy is a lot better than being a, a Space Ranger.

Buzz Lightyear: Yeah, right.

Woody: No, it is. Look, over in that house is a kid who thinks you are the greatest; And it's not because you're a Space Ranger, pal. It's because you're a toy. You are his toy.

"That's right!" said Joy. 

Buzz Lightyear: But why would Andy want me?

Woody: Why would Andy want you?! Look at you! You're a Buzz Lightyear! Any other toy would give up its moving parts just to BE you. You've got wings! You glow in the dark! You talk! Your helmet does that... that, that.... whoosh thing! You are a cool toy!

Buzz was amazed at hearing the comments that cheered him up in the movie. Now he was here, hearing them again. It made him smile. "Good talk, Woody." he said.

"Woody's right, Buzz." said Becky. "Every kid who wants you would be lucky to have you. You are a very popular toy, you know. Also, Mr Abercrombie's Pinky the Pony toys are quite collectable, worth a bit of money."

"I think someone should do a movie about Buzz Lightyear." Camilo said. "Or even a TV show!"

"Camilo, I think they did." the FilmMaster said. "Correction, they did two of them; One was an animated 2D movie, and the other was a fully CGI one, called 'Lightyear', which starred Chris Evans as Buzz."

"Wow!" Joy said. "That is amazing."

"And the animated 2D Movie gave way to a 2D TV Series, with Patrick Warburton as Buzz." the FilmMaster stated.

"Our franchise should totally have a TV series!" Envy said.

"Maybe our franchise should have a tv series!" Ratchet said quickly. "Well, technically," he said, "it's got a movie based on the game, with famous actors, like these films we're watching right now."

"Considerable, but effective." The FilmMaster agreed.

[Buzz glances toward Woody, who now suddenly realizes that Buzz being cool is what got them into this mess]

Woody: As a matter of fact, you're too cool.

"What does he mean?" asked Julieta.

Woody: I mean -- I mean what chance does a toy like me have against a Buzz Lightyear action figure? All I can do is...

[He pull his pull-string]

Woody's Voice Box: There's a snake in my boot.

Woody: [depressed) Why would Andy ever wanna play with me, when he's got you?

[Buzz looks up at Woody in surprise]

Woody: I'm the one that should be strapped to that rocket.

[He slumps dejectedly against the crate, his back to Buzz]

The audience stared at that scene with dismayed expressions. Some of them looked almost saddened.

"Stings, doesn't it." Mirabel said bluntly.

The Madrigals knew that Woody feeling like that was how Mirabel felt - being pushed aside and jealous of her family, since she never had a gift, like her family did, and only remembering losing their home and magic, and having Mirabel run away made them realize she was part of their family, as was Bruno.

Isabela secretly didn't want to admit it, but she did feel a bit jealous of Mirabel - maybe Mirabel not having a gift was a good thing, cause Mirabel could do anything she liked in the Encanto and be herself. Whereas she, on the other hand, had to always maintain a perfect image, to the point where she nearly wanted to rebel. But it was Mirabel who got her to let go of her burdens and embrace the power of her gift, and even change her style, and persona.

Agustin & Felix felt kinda jealous that not many people recognised them as Madrigals without gifts, unlike Mirabel. Then again, they were technically married into the Madrigal family.

Joy & Anxiety could relate to all this on their levels - Joy and the other Emotions [back when Riley had 5 Emotions] always kept Sadness out of the way of the console and put her down, only for Joy & Sadness to end up in Riley's Mind and for Joy to realize how important Sadness was to Riley. Anxiety realized that by pushing out the old Emotions and getting rid of the old Sense of Self when she, Ennui, Embarrassment and Envy arrived, she had inadvertently stopped Riley from being her best self, but thanks to Joy, she now understood that nobody got to choose who Riley was.

Thomas remembered feeling annoyed and jealous when Rocky found a pirate ship in a cave, that he had found by accident when he helped to build a new branch line on Sodor, and, he didn't even get the credit.

All those times DID lead to bad things in the movies, yet, good things had come out of it. Now, there was a chance to fix it.

[As dawn breaks into the room, Buzz lifts up his foot. The signature "Andy" reads through the dirt and scuff marks. As he strokes it, he finally understands what being a toy is all about: bringing joy and happiness to a kid. Buzz gazes back at Woody; A look of determination spreading across his face.)

Woody: [sadly] Listen, Buzz, forget about me. You should get outta here while you can.

The audience stared with worried and saddened expressions.

[There's silence. Woody turns to see that Buzz has gone. Woody looks sad and bows his head, accepting his fate, when suddenly, there's a cluttering noise up above. He looks up to see Buzz on top of the milk crate, trying to push the toolbox off]

Woody: Buzz!! What are you doing? I thought you were --

Buzz Lightyear: Come on, Sheriff. There's a kid over in that house who needs us. Now let's get you out of this thing. (strains)

Woody: [salutes] Yes, sir!

"Wow!" Luisa said in amazement. "Buzz came back to help Woody."

"And he's rescuing him, just like how Shrek rescued me." Fiona said. Shrek smiled.

[Buzz pushes the toolbox.]

Woody: Come on, Buzz, we can do it!

[He pushes the milkcrate to make it move. Together they push, but it's slow progress.]

"Ay dios mio." Luisa said. "They're both strong, and they don't even have a gift of super strength."

"Exactly." the FilmMaster said. "Now they're working together."

[Then as they strain, Buzz heard a rumble noise. he looks out the window. Outside, the rain has stopped, and now it's daytime. A moving van with 'EGGMAN Movers' labelled on it arrives outside Andy's house.]

"Uh-oh." Fear said. "It's moving day."

He and the other 4 Original Emotions remembered it all too well - when Riley's dad got a new job in San Francisco, Riley and the family had to move from Minnesota to San Francisco.

The audience became worried.

Buzz Lightyear: Woody! It's the moving van.

Woody: We've got to get outta here now!

"Si, you'd better hurry." Alma said. 'They're lucky they're not getting chased by soldiers.' she muttered.

She was thinking about when she, her husband Pedro, and her kids, Julieta, Bruno and Pepa had to move from their village when the soldiers attacked, but on that time, Pedro was killed by the soldiers, leaving Alma with only her kids.

(Buzz braces himself between the tool chest and the wall. Using his legs, Buzz pushes with all his might. The toolbox begins to move. Woody notices that with every shove Buzz gives to the tool chest, the milkcrate begins to edge out over the lip of the desk.)

Woody: C'mon, Buzz. [Finally there's a gap wide enough for him to jump through] Alright!

[He jumps through, and drops down to the floor below]

"Yes!" said Coco. "Woody's out!"

Woody: [calling to Buzz] Buzz! Hey! I'm out!

[But Buzz doesn't know that Woody is out, and continues pushing the toolbox (and milk crate) farther out]

Buzz Lightyear: Almost there!

"Uh-oh." Bob Parr said.

"Ahh!" cried Rex. "I can't look!"

Everyone covered and closed their eyes.

(Woody looks up just in time to see the entire toolbox and milk crate topple off the desk toward him. He gives a nervous laugh as the toolbox lands on top of him, and the milk crate bounces off the toolbox. Buzz glances over to Sid; fearing the noise woke him up]

Sid: (Snorts and mutters in his sleep) I wanna ride the pony... [goes back to sleeping]

"That was close." Rivet said.

"What a weird dream he's having." Camilo said.

"You should check out some of the dreams from Dream Productions." Anger deadpanned.

Buzz sighs with relief and went over to the edge of the workbench and peers over to look down to see if his friend is okay]

Buzz: Woody? Woody? Are you alright?!

[Woody lifts the toolbox off him]

Woody: (punch-drunk) I'm fine. I'm OK.

"Ay, that's painful." Agustin said. "And I thought bee stings were bad." he said.

[Suddenly, Sid's alarm clock rings. The toys see Sid getting up. Woody hides under the toolbox and Buzz freezes. Sid groggily sits up for a beat, as the alarm clock continues ringing till it falls off the desk. Then Sid's eyes widen, remembering his bad plan to blow Buzz up with the rocket]

"Not good." Libby said. "He's gonna blow up Buzz."

Sid: Oh, yeah! [gets off his bed and grabs Buzz] Time for lift-off! Whoooooo!

[He unlocks his door and bolts out of his room]

Sid: To infinity and beyond! Whoo-hoo!!!!!!

"Oh no!" Percy said. "He's gonna blow up Buzz, and Woody and him need to get back to Andy before moving day!"

[Woody gets out from under the toolbox, and runs towards the door and catches it just in time before it closes. But as they open the door, Scud, who is standing in the corridor, sees Woody, and barrels down the hallway straight for Woody.)

"Ay ay ay! Not that Scud again!" Victor said.

Carl immediately started using his inhaler.

Woody: Aaah! Back! Back! Down! Down!

(Woody slams the door shut just in time. Scud barks and scratches at the door.)

"That was too close." Felix said.

"I second that." Jimmy Neutron said.

"Woody needs to hurry and rescue Senor Buzz quickly - it won't be long till Andy moves away!"  Carla said anxiously.

"I know, Carla," said Sally. "But Scud's gonna rip him to shreds if he goes out that door."

"Don't worry." Jack Skellington said. "I know Woody will think of something. I know he will."

Woody: Ok, what do I do? Come on Woody, think.

(Woody looks across the room. The mutant toys appeared all around the room.)

Woody: Guys!

[The mutant toys all scatter and hide.]

Woody: No, no, no, no! Wait! Wait. Listen, please. There's a good toy down there, and he's gonna be blown to bits in a few minutes... all because of me. We've gotta save him... And, uh, but I need your help.

[The Mutant toys hide. Woody almost looks like giving up hope till he hears creaking. He looks to see Babyface slowly creeping out from under the bed, curious.]

Woody: [gently] Please. He's my friend. And he's the only one I've got.

The other toys [minus Buzz, Bo Peep, Jessie, Bullseye, Mrs Potato Head, Stinky Pete, Lotso, and Forky] now felt sorry for the way they'd treated Woody ever since they thought he'd pushed Buzz out of the window. They realized now it wasn't Woody's fault it happened, especially with what they thought was Buzz's 'murder'.

[Babyface crawls out and taps out a message in Morse Code on the bedpost with her claw. The other mutant toys come out of hiding and come over to Woody]

Woody: [to Babyface] Thank you. [kneels down around the Mutant toys] Okay. I think I know what to do. We're gonna have to break a few rules, but if it works, it'll help everybody.

"I hope it works." said Becky.

"Well, I had to break all the rules at once to get me and my friends out of the crazy health and safety movie we were trapped in." Mitchell said.

"I hope they save Buzz." Fiona said.

"Sure they will." Dash said. "They'd better hurry - Andy will be moving soon."

Notes:

OK, Quick question, After this story is done, which film do you think I should have the cast see next?

Chapter 14: The Day of the Living Toys at Sid's House

Summary:

This is where Sid gets his just desserts.

Notes:

WARNING, this chapter will get very scary towardss the end, especially if there's little kids reading. Don't say I didn't warn you.

Chapter Text

"OK," the FilmMaster said, "Now, this is getting close to the end."

"Great!" Carmelita said. "Sounds like we're close to the end of this film."

"Yup." Sly said.

"And," the FilmMaster said, "This is where Sid will get his comeuppance."

"I hope so." Carla Delgado said. "If I had a tamborita, I would turn him to stone, like Mama did to Papa, and-"

"Hija, please," Victor said, stopping her, "Don't mention Mama in front of our guests, eh?" he gave an embarrassed chuckle.

"OK." THE FilmMaster said. He started up the fim again.

[The scene changes to Andy's now former house, in Andy's now fully empty and former bedroom, where the movers are moving the last of the boxes of Andy's toys out of it. A forlorn Andy stands, clutching onto Buzz's "spaceship" box in one hand and his cowboy hat in the other.]

The audience felt very sorry for Andy at that moment. Some of them felt like crying, but they tried to hold back their tears.

"Poor Andy." Sadness said. "He still hasn't found his toys. He really misses them."

Julieta, Agustin, and the rest of the Madrigals remembered missing Mirabel after she ran away. They knew that they had been worried and upset ever since. Alma remembered missing Pedro ever since he'd been killed by the soldiers in the past.

Carla Delgado remembered being lonely without her father, after he was turned to stone.

Lady and Tramp remembered missing Scamp after he ran away from home, wanting to be a Junkyard Dog.

"I know, Sadness." Joy said. "And there's no more time for him to look - he's gotta move home now."

[with a sad sigh, he sadly walks out of the room. Sid, not knowing or caring that his neighbours are moving, is carrying materials under his arm from his shed]

Sid: (as Astronaut) Houston to Mission Control. Come in, Control. Launch pad is being constructed! Heh-heh.

[He puts the stuff down next to Buzz who is still inanimate. Inside the house, Outside Sid's door, Scud is planted, poised to strike anything that comes out. In the room, and the mutant toys are planning to rescue Buzz. Woody has created a little diagram of the house and yard out of dominoes and Scrabble tiles. He points to it with a pencil as he addresses the mutants.]

"What a clever plan Woody's set up." Anxiety said, quickly putting some popcorn into her mouth, suddenly intrigued by the plan.

Woody: All right, listen up. I need Pump Boy here, Ducky, here. Legs?

[Legs steps forward]

Woody: You're with Ducky. (to the others) RollerBob and I don't move till we get the signal. Clear?

[The mutant toys nodded in agreement]

Woody: OK. Let's move!

[The mutant toys split up. Scud barks, hearing the commotion. Legs & Ducky rush over to a heating grate and pull the faceplate off the wall. They disappear into the heating duct.]

"Oh i hope this works." Percy said. 

"Of course it will." Thomas reassured him.

"This is just like some of the big jobs we've pulled in the past." Bentley said. Sly & Murray agreed.

[Woody Looks toward RockMobile, Hand in the Box, and Babyface, as they get ready for their part of the plan. Meanwhile, in the vent, Legs & Ducky head down the duct to find the right tunnel. Ducky saw the right tunnel and quacks to Legs, and he and Legs go into it. Roller-Bob lowers his visor, and Woody gets onto him.]

Woody: Wind the frog!

[Pump Boy winds up the Frog. In the porch, A bottom of wall insulation is pushed aside to reveal Ducky and Legs. They make their way toward a junction box sitting in the center of the floor. In Sid's room, RockMobile stands on Babyface, and lefts up Hand in the Box, who grabs the door handle. RockMobile and Pump Boy signal to Woody and the other mutant toys that they are ready. Woody gives a thumbs up.]

"They're ready." said Joy.

"This brings back memories." Sly Cooper said, and Murray & Bentley agreed. They remembered that when they were kids, they met and grew up in the orphanage, and made a heist to steal cookies, which turned them into a gang of Master Thieves.

[Back in the rafters, Ducky and Legs lift up the loose junction box, which is attached to the porch light, taking it into the rafters. Ducky sticks his head out of the hole where the porch light was to see if the coast is clear. In the room, Woody and the other mutant toys are waiting for Ducky to give them the signal.

Woody: Wait for the signal.

"Ay dios mio, I hope this works." Julieta said anxiously.

"It will, Mama, trust me." Mirabel said.

Fear timidly nibbled on his popcorn.

[Ducky takes the end of the line off Legs' fishing reel, hooks it onto himself, and is then lowered down through the open hole. Hanging halfway down the front door, Ducky begins to swing; swinging back and forth to reach the doorbell. Eventually, he swings far enough to reach the doorbell and presses it. The doorbell chimes.]

Woody: Go!

[Hand-in-the-Box opens the door and Pump Boy lets go of the Frog, sending him speeding out of the room and right past Scud, who begins to chase after him. Meanwhile, Babyface, Pump Boy, Rockmobile and Hand in the Box Join Woody, RollerBob, Jingle Joe, Janie and Pterodactyl.]

Woody: Alright, let's go!

[Scud chases the Frog down the corridor]

Hannah: [offscreen] I'll get it!

Woody: Now!

[RollerBob uses his arms to move his skateboard, Woody and the other mutant toys out of the room, with Hand in the Box holding onto Jingle Joe, pulling him, Janie and Pterodactyl. Downstairs, Hannah, having heard the doorbell, heads toward the door.]

Hannah: I'm coming, I'm coming!

[Outside, Ducky freezes, freezes just as Hannah opens the door and looks outside; There's no one there. She didn't even see Ducky on the porch in front of her.]

"Good save, Ducky." Ratchet said.

"Here comes the good part." the FilmMaster said to no one in particular. He was looking forward to this bit.

[Scud chases the Frog downstairs, and into the foyer. The Frog races in between Hannah's legs, and into Ducky's hands. Legs lifts Ducky and the Frog out of the way just as Scud bursts through the door onto the porch, knocking Hannah over like a bowling pin in the process]

"STRIKE!" shouted Mitchell, remembering the Bowling for Pineapples game he'd played on Ken Kong's island.

Lots of the audience started laughing at that moment.

"That was hilarious!!!" Camilo said through his loud raucous laughter, nearly falling out of his seat.

"I AGREE!" Donkey said, laughing.

"Do it again, Scud!" Scamp said excitedly.

"Scamp, whose side are you on?" Tramp said sternly.

"The side that gets this next chapter of this fanfic over with." Scamp said.

Hannah: [angrily] Oh, Scud!!!

[Legs lifts Ducky & Frog into the rafters. Scud barks up at the toys as Hannah gets back up. The porch light is put back in place. Scud suddenly realizes he's been duped]

Hannah: [angrily] Stupid dog!

[Hannah angrily slams the front door shut. Scud smashes into the closed door and begins barking furiously.]

"That'll take care of Scud for a while." Helen said.

[As Hannah storms off into another room, she doesn't notice Woody and the mutants zipping off the stairs and ‘round the corner, heading straight into the kitchen. By now, RollerBob has really picked up speed. He shoots underneath the kitchen table, through the maze of chair legs, straight toward the pet door.)

Woody: Lean back!

(The mutants all push back causing the RollerBob to do a wheelie. They smash through the doggie door and catapult into the bushes.)

"Alright, they made it!" Aku Aku said.

"Now all they have to do is rescue Buzz, get that rocket off of him, and get back to Andy!" said Jimmy.

[Woody, and the mutant toys peeks out of the bushes to see Buzz, who is now standing, inanimate, and strapped to the launchpad. Sid is still in his tool shed, doing voices of Houston and an astronaut]

Sid: (offscreen, AS ASTRONAUT) Uh, Mission Control, is the launchpad construction complete? (simulated static) Uh, Roger, rocket is now secured to guide wire.

[Legs, Ducky, and the Frog slide into the yard from the drain pipe. They exchange a thumbs-up with Woody before hurrying to their positions]

Sid: [offscreen] We are currently obtaining the...ignition sticks. Countdown will commence momentarily; Stand by. --(simulated static)

Woody: Let's go.

[the mutant toys spread out to their positions]

Sid: [offscreen; calling out] Hey, Ma! Where are the matches? [finds them offscreen] Oh, oh, wait, here they are. Never mind...!

"I swear, his mama needs to discipline her son better." Judy Neutron grumbled.

[Woody ran towards Buzz, who saw him]

Buzz Lightyear: (whispers) Woody?! Great! Help me out of this thing!

Woody: Shhh!

Buzz Lightyear: (Confused) What?

Woody: (whispers) It's OK. Everything's under control.

[He goes limp and falls to the ground, confusing Buzz]

"Uh, is this part of the plan?" Gingy asked.

Buzz Lightyear: Woody?! What are you doing?!

Dolores heard something. "Uh-oh." she said. "Sid's coming."

(Sid emerges from the tool shed. Buzz freezes.)

Sid: *as astronaut* Houston, all systems are go. Requesting permission to launch. [He spots Woody] Hey! How'd you get out here? [picks up Woody] Oh, well, you and I can have a cookout later. Ha-ha-ha.

(He tosses Woody onto the grill of an open barbecue, and sticks a match prominently in Woody's holster.)

The Madrigals were now getting mad again - Sid was planning to cook Woody if his launch was a success. They knew he was going this far to destroy toys.

"Ay, how low can he go?" Julieta snarled.

"I can think of lower." Camilo said. "And by the way, the villains on the top row of this room are lower than Sid." he added, motioning to the villains on the top row.

"If I had my gift, I'd throw him into a tornado, and then strike him with the strongest lightning bolts I can make," Pepa growled, crushing the popcorn she was holding in her hands.

"I'm gonna knock out all of his teeth, one at a time, and make him eat 'em." Sly Cooper said.

"Ok." the FilmMaster said, "can I have your attention, please?"

The crowd stopped chatting and looked up at the FilmMaster.

"Now, I must warn you, you all might get a bit scared at this next scene." he said.

"How scary is it?" asked Luisa.

"Well, it's kinda mind-blowing scary." the FilmMaster said. 

"Why?" Joy asked uncertainly.

"Yeah, why is it mind-blowing scary?" Bruno asked.

"Well," the FilmMaster said, trying to tell him what was gonna happen without freaking them out, "It's gonna reveal something incredibly disturbing to the toys, one the adverts don't mention."

"In other words, they do what they do when humans aren't around, right?" Scamp asked.

"Uh-huh." the FilmMaster said. "And here it comes. Last chance to back out."

He started the film again.

[Sid goes to the launch pad, ready to blow Buzz up.]

Sid: Houston, do we have permission to launch? -- (simulated static) Uh, Roger, permission granted. [Legs & Babyface peer round a pole to watch him.] You are confirmed at T minus 10 seconds.

[Sid Lights a Match]

Sid: And counting.

"Uh-oh." Jimmy Neutron said.

Everyone gulped.

Sid: 10, 9, 8, 7, 6...

(During Sid's countdown, all the mutants scurry into their final positions. Woody looks up at Sid with an angry look on his face from the barbecue].

Sid: 5, 4, 3, 2, 1...!

Just before Sid said '1', everyone covered their eyes.

[Sid is about to light the match, when suddenly....................]

Woody: [voice box] Reach for the sky!

[Sid turns to see Woody still on the barbecue grill, lifeless except for the sound coming from his voice box]

Sid: [confused] Huh?

[He throws the match, stands up, and heads toward the barbecue grill.]

Woody: [voice box]  This town ain't big enough for the two of us!

Sid: What?

Woody: [voice box]  Somebody's poisoned the water hole!

"Poison, still gross." Disgust said.

"Shhh." The FilmMaster said.

[Sid Picks up Woody.]

Sid: It's busted.

Woody: [Voice Box] Who are you callin' busted, Buster?!

[Sid stops short and looks at Woody confused]

Everyone in the audience now gasped, and some of them stared, jaws hanging.

"Oh my goodness." said Violet. "Is this what I think it is?"

The FilmMaster nodded.

"Oh my goodness." Mrs Potato Head said, holding her husband, who held her back.

"I guess SId is gonna see the toys being alive for real." Mirabel said to her father.

"Miercoles...." Agustin whispered in fear.

Woody: [Voice Box] That's right. I'm talking to you, Sid Phillips.

[As Woody's voice box continues to talk, Sid looks at Woody's pull string; It isn't moving. Sid gets increasingly frightened and confused.

Woody: [Voice Box] We don't like being blown up, Sid, or smashed, or ripped apart.

Sid: [startled] W-w-w-we?!

Woody: [Voice Box] That's right. Your toys.

[As soon as the voice box stops, a mud-covered toy doll emerges from the sand pit, and walks toward Sid like a zombie]

Mud-Covered Doll: Mama! Mama! Mama! Mama!

[Sid turns to see a red truck come outta a pile of sand, followed by Walking Car. Buzz watches, amazed as he now realizes what's going on.]

"Oh my goodness." said Pepa.

Felix just stared, gobsmacked.

"Mama, Papa, what's happening?" Antonio said worriedly.

"Well," Felix said, "it's probably best we don't tell you till you're older."

Pepa cradled Antonio close to her. "Don't worry, nino." she said.

[2 old soldiers and the Frog come out of a muddy ditch. One soldier has no arms and a nail in his head, and the other soldier has no head. Sid gasps as he sees the other toys come out and move towards him. The Pizza Planet alien that he gave to Scud pops out from under Scud's dog food bowl, a big chewed mark on his torso, and a few dirt marks on his face. He starts walking like a zombie. Sid gasps in horror at the toys come toward him]

"Yikes." Megamind said.

"Holy cow." Jessie said, horrified.

"Oh, my goodness." Slinky Dog said. "That is one darned freaky freakshow."

"Not wrong there." Hamm agreed with his slinky friend.

"Ay dios mio." Alma thought to herself. "It's the soldiers all over again."

Roxanne Ritchi could only gawk in response to the scene before her.

Even the villains were scared at what they were seeing. Nobody seemed more scared than Stinky Pete and Lotso.

[Legs lowers Babyface down onto Sid's head, making him scream in terror. He backs away, but then Hand in the Box grabs his foot, frightening him further. As he shakes the hand off, RollerBob, Janie, Pterodactyl, and Jingle Joe come out of hiding and approach him]

Janie: Mama.

"Oh my goodness." King Goobot said. "I think my inside just ran cold."

[Sid is now whimpering in fear. Swivel and pan out to reveal all the mutant toys, as well as the toys in the yard, now surrounding Sid in a circle, so he can't escape]

Woody: [Voice box] From now on, you must take good care of your toys, because if you don't, we'll find out, Sid.

[We see Woody's face]

Woody: [Voice Box] We toys can see [his head turns around 360 degrees] everything.

Everyone was now beyond scared by what they were seeing.

Carl was rapidly using his inhaler.

Fear was breathing into a paper bag.

Embarrassment hugged Bruno tightly, not even caring about the sweaty smell of Bruno's feet.

Most of the audience hugged and embraced each other.

"Ay, and I thought the smelters scene in the last movie was scary enough." Julieta said anxiously.

"This is even more scarier than the ghost children in our school!" Becky wailed, hiding behind Felix.

"ANd here's the breaking point." the FilmMaster said.

(Sid is shaking in fear. in less time than it takes to tell, Woody comes to life in Sid's hand.)

Woody: [sinisterly] So play nice!

[That is the final straw for Sid. He screams, throws Woody up into the air, and runs into his house, screaming all the way. Woody and the mutant toys cheer and celebrate]

Woody: (delighted) Ha-ha! We did it! We did it! YES!!!

"Hooray!!!!" Mitchell cheered. "They did it!!!!!"

The audience cheered too.

The toys cheered loudest of all. "Well done, Woodster!" Hamm cheered.

"All right!" said Slinky. "He showed him!"

"Is it over?" Rex asked, having hidden his face from seeing the whole thing.

[Inside, Hannah is coming into the hall, having found her Sally doll; a doll similar to Janie but with brown hair and a yellow dress. At that moment, a frightened Sid rushes in]

Sid: [frightewned] The toys! The toys are alive!!!!! [He sees Hannah's Sally doll and recoils a bit] N-N-Nice toy...

[Hannah, sensing Sid's fear and an opportunity to get back at him for what he did to Janie and her toys, suddenly thrusts the Sally doll into Sid's face. He screams and runs upstairs, with Hannah chasing him, taunting him with the Sally doll]

Hannah: What's wrong, Sid?! Don't you want to play with Sally?!

The audience felt glad Sid had got his just desserts.

"Hmmm." Isabela said in firm demeanor. "I don't feel sorry for him."

"Me neither, Isabela." Emily said. "He had this coming for a long time."

"it’s about time.” Dr Cortex noted.

"For once, I agree with the yellow-skinned freak mad scientist." Judy said. 

"That's almost a compliment." Dr Neo Cortex said.

"Still, quite a very scary scene for little kids to watch in that film, if I do say so myself." Hugh said.

"Don't question the logic, Hugh." Judy sighed.

"I bet Sid's gonna have nightmares for weeks." Ratchet said.

"If anything, i think he's gonna also need therapy." Cindy said.

"I know a certain friend of mine who can do that." Bob Parr said, referring to Rick Dicker, who ran the Superhero Relocation Program, who was the one who erased the memories of people who witnessed Supers and their powers for real; back when the supers were illegal.

"I have to admit, Woody," Mr Potato Head said to Woody, "That silly idea of yours worked. It was a great plan!"

"Says the toy who falsely accused him of murder." Camilo snarked.

Immediately, Felix & Pepa both slapped him hard in the face, twice.

"I knew you could do it, Woody." Bo Peep said to Woody.

"Sure did, Bo." Woody said.

"I'm glad Sid won't be torturing jugetes any more." Victor said.

"I second that, Papa." Carla said, hugging her father.

"Agreed." Libby said. "And," she added for good measure, "he's never gonna destroy toys anymore, or play with matches or dangerous equipment ever again."

"Duly noted, Lib." Fear said. 

"I have to admit," Pepa said, "It was muy scary."

"Si, Tia Pepa. I'm glad it's over now." Luisa said.

"Uh, not quite, Luisa." Tramp said. "Woody may have stopped Sid, but he and Buzz still need to get home to Andy."

That, sadly, would have to wait till the final chapter of this story.

Trust me, it would all be worth the wait.

Chapter 15: The Journey Home

Summary:

the epic climax of Toy Story.

Notes:

(See the end of the chapter for notes.)

Chapter Text

"Now, audience," the FilmMaster said to the audience, "We've now reached the thrilling climax of this film."

"I hope it's exciting as the chase in Thomas and the Magic Railroad." Mirabel said.

"Oh it is exciting." the FilmMaster said. "And it's gonna be extra thrilling."

"I hope so too." Bruno said. "We need some excitement after all that scary stuff with the mutant jugetes frightening Sid."

"I still say he deserved it, Tio Bruno." Isabela said.

"I second that, Isa." Mirabel said.

With that, the FilmMaster started up the movie again.

[Outside in the yard, Everyone is chatting about their triumph over Sid]

Woody: Nice work, fellas. Good job. Comin' out of the ground -- what a touch! That was a stroke of genius.

Buzz Lightyear: Woody.

[Woody turns around and sees Buzz who's still affixed to Sid's launchpad. Buzz extends his hand to Woody]

Buzz Lightyear: Thanks.

[They share a smile as they shake hands, beginning their friendship]

"Finally, they're being friends at last." Shrek agreed.

"Well they'd better continue their friendship on the run." Donkey said, "because Andy's about to leave."

[Suddenly, they heard a car horn and they turn to see Andy and his family getting into the car]

Andy's Mom: Everybody say, "Bye, house!"

Buzz Lightyear: Woody! The van!

Andy: (depressed) Bye, house.

"Hurry, rapido!" cried Victor Delgado.

[Woody quickly hoists Buzz off the pole he was tied to, then, he & Buzz [with the rocket still attached to him] head off to Andy's now former house]

Woody: (to the mutant toys) We gotta run! Thanks, guys!

"I guess the mutant toys will have an interesting time at Sid's from now on." said Emily.

[the two toys sprint to the fence. Woody peeks out to see Andy's van's engine roaring, starting up]

Woody: Quick!

[Woody easily slips through the slats in the fence, but Buzz gets stuck. Woody climbs to the rear bumper of the van, then realises Buzz isn't behind him. He looks back to discover that Buzz is stuck in the fence]

Buzz Lightyear: Just go! I'll catch up!

[Woody looks between Buzz and the van then quickly jumps down and runs back to Buzz, just as the van begins pulling out of the driveway. Woody tugs on a loosened slat and breaks Buzz free of the fence. The two toys ran out to the street but the van is already driving away down the street]

"Ah great!" said Anger. "They've lost it! Just like how our moving van got lost!" That he and the other 4 Original Emotions remembered too well.

"Well, at least Woody made the right choice." Scamp said.

[Then they heard a rumble and they look back to see the moving truck rolling towards them]

Woody and Buzz Lightyear: Aaaah!

[They duck down to avoid being hit by the truck as it rolls over them. After it passes, they see a strap which is dangling from the back of the truck, and start to chase it]

Buzz Lightyear: Come on!

"Get after that truck!" Carla Delgado called.

"If they hurry, chances are they'll make it in time." Ratchet said.

"Oh, I don't think it's going to be that easy." the FilmMaster said to the Lombax. "Keep watching."

[Scud is lying on the front porch when he perks up, seeing Woody, and Buzz running down the street after the moving truck. He growls, wanting to get back at them for duping him.]

The audience gulped.

"Of course." said Ratchet in annoyance. "It's never that easy."

"I rest my case." the FilmMaster said.

[Buzz runs ahead of Woody and leap for the strap and grabs it to climb up to the bumper. Woody struggles to reach the strap]

Buzz Lightyear: You can do it, Woody!

[Woody jumps and grabs the strap]

Woody: Whew, I made it!

[Buzz Lightyear suddenly gasps. Woody looks back to see what Buzz is seeing - Scud running down the street towards them!!!!]

"IT'S SCUD!" screamed Gingy.

"Aw no! Not him again!" Rivet complained.

"I guess he wants revenge for getting him in trouble with Hannah." Scamp said.

"No prizes for guessing, son." Tramp said.

Woody: Aaaaaah!!!!!!!!!

[Scud bite on Woody's foot]

Woody: (kicking Scud with his other foot) Get away, you stupid dog! Down! Down!

The audience didn't like it at all. The villains were hoping that Woody would be ripped apart by Scud.

[Scud began to drag Woody down to the end of the strap]

Buzz Lightyear: Hold on, Woody!

Woody: I can't do it! Take care of Andy for me!

Buzz Lightyear: No!!!

[Buzz jumps off of the truck and onto Scud's snout. He pulls Scud's eyelids and snaps them hard. Scud yelps in pain, letting go of Woody. He bucks wildly with Buzz still on him]

Woody: Buzz!

The audience were relieved that Woody was alright, but also, worried for Buzz.

[The moving truck continues down the street, leaving Buzz and Scud behind. Still hanging onto the strap, Woody scrambles up onto the bumper. He unlocks the back door of the truck and strains to get it open. Just then, the moving truck and the family van stop at the traffic lights. Woody slams into the door, making it slide up, carrying him with it. Hanging from the door, Woody scans the inside of the truck until he saw a box marked 'ANDY'S TOYS']

"He must have an idea in motion." said Mirabel.

"I hope so." said Libby. "Anything to save Buzz from that nasty dog."

"My dog Humphrey's better than him." Cindy said proudly.

"Not like Goddard." Jimmy muttered under his breath.

[Scud flings Buzz off his face, sending him tumbling under a parked car. Scud runs to the car but can't get to Buzz due to the car being too big for him to fit under. In the van, Woody opens the box and inside is Slinky, Rex, Mr. Potato Head and Hamm. All the toys wince and moan as they cover their eyes from the sudden brightness.)]

Slinky Dog: Ow!

Rex: Are we there already?

Mr. Potato Head: Woody?!

Rex: Woody!

Hamm: How did you get here?!

Slinky Dog: Woody?! How'd you -- Where have you- What happened?

(Strange, Woody's response is to slide the box aside and begin rummaging through the next box. Slinky, Potato Head, Rex and the other toys grumble in confusion as they poke their heads up out of the first box.)

Hamm: What's going on? What's he takin'?

Woody: Ah-hah! There you are!!

[The toys watch in confusion as Woody took out RC and his remote control out of the box]

Mr. Potato Head: Hey! What's he doin'?

[Woody runs to the back of the truck and kicks RC out onto the street, making the toys scream in horror]

Rex: He's at it again!!!!!

"I was trying to save Buzz!" Woody said.

"Oh boy." Mr Potato Head said, feeling quite ashamed. It felt annoying to see his regretful moments being replayed for everyone to see, especially for the newer franchise characters, like Forky, Lotso and Jessie.

The other toys felt shamefaced too.

Alma realized that this was almost similar to her argument with Mirabel before Casita collapsed. Now she was beginning to regret how she'd treated Mirabel.

[Woody turns on the remote and sends RC to the parked car, passing Scud on the way. RC's motor whirrs happily at Buzz being OK and Buzz smiles at him. Woody laughs, but just then, the traffic light turned green, allowing the moving truck and Andy's family van to cross the intersection and drive on]

"Uh-oh." Bob Parr said.

Mr. Potato Head: [angrily] GET HIM!!!!!

[The toys pour out of their boxes and charge towards Woody]

"Oh no! Not now!" said Jimmy Neutron.

[Woody looks back, gasps and quickly turns the wheel on the remote, making RC zoom with Buzz on board him out from under the car, and towards the truck, with Scud in hot pursuit. Woody steers the remote while trying to fend off the angry toys]

Rex; ROAR!!!

Woody: Ah-h!! Ah-h! No, no!

[Scud continues chasing Buzz and RC down the street, nearly close to chomping on him. Buzz glances back and forth, his worry and horror increasing with every glance. In the truck, Rocky lifts Woody and spin him around in circles]

Woody: No, no, no, no! Wait! Whoa-whoa-whoa-whoa!

(The RC car suddenly swerves from Scud's jaws and starts doing doughnuts matching Woody's in the middle of the street Scud twirls around to follow it, getting confused.)

Everyone watching this scene watched RC Spin, and then their seats felt the spinning force too.

"Wheeeee!" Camilo cheered, raising his arms in the air, like it was a rollercoaster ride.

Buzz Lightyear: Whoa-whoa-whoa-whoa!

Woody: Whoa-whoa-whoa-whoa-whoa!

(Rocky throws Woody to the floor. RC resumes his course straight down the street with Scud giving chase.]

Hamm: Pig pile!!!

[Hamm leaps off a pile of boxes and onto Woody. The impact makes RC jump into the air, with Buzz going up in the air too.]

"Whoa!" the audience yelled, as their seats felt the leaping force.

[Buzz manages to land back on RC, but facing backwards. RC swerves uncontrollably as they approach the intersection, with the traffic lights turning red and the wall of cross traffic moving from both directions. Buzz looks back to see the lines of traffic in front of him]

Buzz Lightyear: Aaaagh!!!!

Everyone screamed and covered their eyes.

"I can't look!" cried Rex.

[Buzz and RC drive straight into the lines of traffic with Scud blindly following them. Scud saw a car slamming on it's brakes on his side and went wide-eyed, realizing his mistake and skids to a stop. The car swerves to avoid Scud and crashes into another car. Buzz and RC zipped through before the other cars could collide with each other. Soon, there is a multi-car pile-up that encircles Scud, entrapping him. He runs back and forth, trying to find a way out, while people in their cars honk their horns at each other and shout at each other. Buzz looks up to see what happened, and he lets out a sigh of relief, both for getting away from Scud and avoiding getting hit by the cars.]

"That was a close one." Agustin said, gasping for breath.

"Dios mio, he almost died." Bruno said, shaking.

"Well, something good came out of this." Angel said proudly. "That jerk dog Scud is defeated now."

"He's worse than Buster." Scamp agreed with his girlfriend.

"I can hear you, Scampadoo!" Buster shouted from the top row.

"SHUT UP!" The 4 dogs shouted at once toward the evil Junkyard dog.

"Good dodging Buzz." said Jessie.

"At least it's better than being in traffic cones." Slinky Dog said.

"What does he mean by that?" asked Fear.

"You'll find out soon enough." Joy told him.

[Back on the truck, things aren't looking too good for Woody. The mob of toys have now lifted him up, and are carrying him [remote and all] towards the open back. Bo Peep is behind them, her head on her face, worried for Woody]

"I CANNOT BELIEVE YOU WERE STILL AGAINST WOODY!!!" Mrs Potato Head shouted angrily.

"Well, I didn't know Buzz was alive till near the end of this movie!" Mr Potato Head said in defence. "Believe me, It's not easy being a major spud!"

Mrs Potato Head immediately slapped her husband so hard, most of his pieces flew off. 

"Serves him right." Camilo thought.

Woody: No wait! You don't understand! Buzz is out there! We've gotta help him!!

[He swung his arm and the remote around, accidentally knocking Mr. Potato Head's parts off his body and onto the floor]

Mr. Potato Head: Toss him overboard!

Woody; No, no, no, wait! Aah!

Everyone gasped in horror.

(The toys toss him, remote and all, out into the road. As the truck drives off, the toys cheer.)

Rex; Hooray!

Mr. Potato Head: So long, Woody!

[Woody sighs. But then, he looks back, and sees a blue car coming towards him. He ducks down to avoid getting hit as the car passes over him. Shaken, Woody gets up when Buzz and RC come racing up behind them]

Buzz Lightyear: Oh! Woody!

[RC sweeps up Woody and keeps driving. Woody found himself sitting in front of Buzz while still holding the remote.]

Woody: Oh! Well, thanks for the ride.

Buzz Lightyear: (pointing ahead) Look out!!

[They see that they're about to slam into the rear tire of the car in front of them! Woody screams and quickly turns the wheel on the remote to make a hard left, missing the tire. RC swerves under the car]

"Ay dios mio, that was close." Julieta said.

"Si, mama." Mirabel said.

Woody: Now let's catch up to that truck!

[He flicks the switch from 'ON' to 'TURBO', RC speeds up and zooms after the moving truck. The toys are busy congratulating one another over kicking Woody out again]

"How could those idiotas do such a thing!?" Isabela snapped. "I could just smash them like the cheap plastic they are right now!"

"We've changed." Mr Potato Head said, as his body was still feeling around for the parts he'd lost.

[Lenny, looking bored, glances out of the back and spots Woody and Buzz on RC]

Lenny: Guys! Guys! Woody's riding RC!

Toys: What?!

Lenny: And Buzz is with him!

[The toys rush to the edge of the open truck. As Woody & Buzz get closer, Bo lifts Lenny up to look through him]

Bo Peep: It is Buzz! Woody was telling the truth!

[The toys, including Mr. Potato Head, gasp in shock and are horrified at what they have done]

Slinky Dog: What have we done?!

Rex: Great. Now I have guilt!

"You should be!" Helen snapped. "I ask you, accusing Woody of something he didn't do! For shame!!!"

"Couldn't have said it better." Bob Parr agreed with his wife.

Woody: We're almost there!

[RC is gaining on the moving truck]

Bo Peep: Rocky, the ramp!

[Rocky Gibraltar rushes over to a lever on the side of the back. The sign above it reads "RAMP: UP/DOWN."  Rocky pushes down the lever and the ramp starts to lower. Woody and Buzz look up to see the ramp about to come down on top of them]

Buzz Lightyear: Look out!

[RC sped back just before the ramp slams down into the road. Sparks flew from the metal, scraping the road]

The sparks flew along the walls of the auditorium. they were light projections of course, but even so, the sight made the audience scream a bit. Carl was using his inhaler like his life depended on it [which it did].

"Ah yeah!" Anger said excitedly, "This is exciting!!"

"I bet the driver of the moving van will have a very puzzling question in his mind about the ramp lowered and the door opened whilst the van was moving." said Kit.

Slinky Dog: (to the other toys) Quick! Hold on to my tail!

[Mr. Potato Head and Rex grab onto Slinky's tail, allowing Slinky's front end to jump off the truck and onto the ramp. Slinky leans forward with his paw stretching out to Woody. Woody hands the remote to Buzz and leans forward to grab Slinky's paw. They grab hold of each other.]

Mr. Potato Head: Attaboy, Slink!

"Nice of you to change your tune, honey." said Mrs Potato Head. "You're such a brave spud!" she kissed him rapidly.

"Gross." Dr Neo Cortex said. "Get a room."

The FilmMaster immediately dropped a Nitro crate on Cortex's head, blowing him up, and leaving behind his ray gun, teeth, boots, and the "N" on his forehead. 

[Then, all of a sudden, RC starts to slow down, pulling Slinky's front end off the ramp]

Slinky Dog: Oh! Woody!!

[His slinky middle began to stretch, and the other toys look worried, as they grab Slinky's rear end]

"Not good." said Felix.

"Ay." Dolores agreed with her father.

Slinky Dog: Woody, speed up!

Woody: (to Buzz) Speed up!

Buzz Lightyear: The batteries! They're running out!

[RC's headlight eyes sag as he slows down even more. Slinky continues stretching.]

Slinky Dog: Whoa! Whoa! Whoa! Whoa!

"That is so unsafe." Fear said.

"I hope Slinky's spring doesn't snap." Anxiety said anxiously.

[Woody is forced to grab Slinky's other paw, and the truck drags Slinky along.]

Slinky Dog: Whoa! Aaaaaaaagh!!!!!

[Jumpcut to Inside the family van as the song 'Hakuna Matata' from The Lion King plays, as Andy's mom drives. Molly look at the sideview mirror and saw RC with Woody and Buzz in it, being pulled by Slinky from the truck. Molly squeals with delight at the sight of what she just saw.

"Well, that's another person seeing toys that are alive." said Minion.

"She's only a baby, she's too young to understand." the FilmMaster said.

"Oh." Minion said.

[Jumpcut back to Woody, Buzz, RC and Slinky]

Slinky Dog: Aaaaaaaagh!!!!!

[RC began to weave side-to-side like a water skier. With Slinky's mid-section stretched to the limit, he began to lose his grip on Woody]

"I think Slink's about to let go!" cried Ratchet.

Slinky Dog: I can't hold on much longer!

Woody: Slink! Hang on!!!!!!!!

[Too late; Slinky's paws slip outta Woody's hands, sending his front shooting back into the truck]

Slinky Dog: Aaaaaaah!

[Slinky strikes the toys, knocking them over.]

Toys: Ouch!

Everyone winced.

Ay dios mio.” Julieta bemoaned.

"That's gotta hurt." Princess Fiona said.

[RC slows down and sputters to a stop. Woody and Buzz watch as the family van and moving truck disappear down the street. A cuckoo bird's chirps]

Everyone groaned in annoyance.

"Oh man!" Ratchet groaned. "They were so close!"

Woody: (angrily) Great! 

[Buzz drops the remote. He then looks back at the rocket, which is still attached to his back. This gives him an idea]

Buzz Lightyear: Woody! The rocket!

Woody: The match!

"What match?" said Roxanne.

"I remember!" Victor Delgado said quickly, raising his hand like an eager student in school. "Senor Sid put a match in Woody's holster!"

[Woody pulls out the match from his holster that Sid had put there earlier]

Woody: Yes! Thank you, Sid!

"And thank you, Papa." Carla Delgado said, hugging her father.

"For once, I'm glad Sid did something good." Mitchell said.

Everyone became excited at this. 

[Woody runs around behind Buzz, strikes the match against RC's back tire, lighting it.]

"This is it!" Mirabel said excitedly. "Woody and Buzz are getting home to Andy today!"

[Woody is about to light the fuse when the same car from earlier whizzes over them, blowing out the match.]

And then there came the groans, awws and the other dismayed expressions from the crowd. The one chance Woody & Buzz had to return to Andy, and it got blown. Ouch.

"Aw, no, no, no! Come on!!!" Ratchet groaned.

"Oh no!" Sadness whimpered.

"CURSE YOU, AUTOMOBILES!!!!!!!!!!" Anger shouted, shaking his fist.

[Woody looks stunned at the extinguished match.]

Woody: No! No, no! No!!

[He clenched the match in his hands and fell prostrate to the ground]

Woody: [tearfully] NO! OOH, NOOOOO, NO, NO, NO, NO, NO, NO!

"Oh this is terrible!" Carl wailed dramatically, "Woody and Buzz are lost toys forever!"

"FOREVER!!!!!" Sheen wailed loudly. It was so loud that everyone stopped to look at him.

"What?" he said innocently. "It adds to the drama."

Pepa burst into tears, and Felix tried to comfort her. If she had a cloud in there right now, it would be raining, and it would flood the whole auditorium.

Some of the audience started crying too.

The FilmMaster activated the tissue dispensers, so the crying toons could use them to wipe their eyes.

[Unable to watch a cowboy cry, Buzz sadly bows his head, causing his helmet to block the sun from Woody.]

Woody: [sobs loudly] NO!!!

It was then Jimmy Neutron noticed something on the screen. "Everyone, stop!" he shouted.

The toons [most of which were still crying] stopped and looked toward Jimmy.

"What is it?" asked Alma.

"Look what's happening to Woody's hand on the screen!" Jimmy said, pointing to the screen.

Immediately, everyone turned to the screen.

[Woody suddenly saw a white dot appear and start to smoke on his hand, which was similar to the dot generated from Sid's magnifying glass. Looking up, he sees Buzz's helmet is causing it.]

"That's like from when Sid used the magnifying glass on me earlier!" Woody said.

"Exactly, cowboy!" Jimmy Neutron said.

"Yes, but what's that gotta do with the fact that they're now completely stranded?!?!" Anger snapped. "Ask me that, smart guy!" he shouted at Jimmy Neutron.

"It's simple." Jimmy said. "The rays of the sun increase in power if shone through a see-through surface, like glass or clear plastic. If used correctly or incorrectly, they can either start fires or light rocket fuses. Buzz's helmet is made of the same see-through clear plastic, so maybe Woody could use that to light the fuse!"

"Wow, Jimbo, that's amazing!" Hugh said.

"It sounds pointless!" Cindy snapped.

"It might just work!" Mirabel agreed. 

[Seeing that Buzz's helmet aims the sunlight on his hand, Woody got an idea. He leaps up, grabs Buzz's helmet and aligns it so the sunlight touches the fuse]

Buzz Lightyear: Woody?! What are you doing?!

Woody: Hold still, Buzz!

[The fuse smolders for a bit, then lights]

Woody: Ha-ha!

"Hooray!" the audience cheered loudly.

Buzz Lightyear: You did it! Next stop: Andy!

[Then Woody stops smiling, remembering something]

Woody: Wait a minute. I just lit a rocket. Rockets explode!

[SUDDENLY, as if on cue, the rocket ignites, and RC Car rockets forward at breakneck speed, speeding along the dividing line in the road, it easily passes car after car until the moving truck can be seen on the horizon. Woody's face starts wagging by the speed it's going]

The seats shook and rocked like they were moving super fast. The audience was nearly shaken to sickness. The popcorn in their bowls rattled and spilt as they did so.

"Woo-hoo!" cheered Mitchell, raising his arms. "It's more fun when you raise your arms up like this!" He jumped up to stand on his seat.

"U-U-Un momento!" Carla Delgado said shakily.

"W-h-wh-what is it?" Cindy Vortex said.

"I've just r-realized!" Carla said. "Sid's package was a cohete de fuegos artificiales! That means it'll soon explode!"

Everyone gasped.

"Ay ay ay!" Mirabel said. "Carla Delgado, you're right."

"I hope they can stop it before it hits the moving truck and blows it up!" Murray said.

[in the moving truck, The toys are gathered around Slinky, his spring splayed out on the floor.)

Slinky Dog: [sadly] I shoulda held on longer...

"Oh, Slink, it wasn't your fault." Bo Peep said.

[Lenny look out of the back and saw Woody, Buzz, and RC zooming up to them]

Lenny: Look! Look! It's Woody and Buzz! Comin' up fast!

(The toys run to the opening.)

Rex: Woody!

[Then there was trouble. The rocket's velocity becomes so strong that it begins to lift Buzz and Woody up into the air, and off the RC Car.]

"THEY'RE GOING TOO FAST!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!" Pepa screamed at the top of her voice.

[Woody manages to continue holding onto RC, but not for long. Woody is forced to let go of the RC Car. They separate, sending the two toys upward and RC into the back of the truck. The toys' cheering turns into screaming as they rush to get out of the way of the oncoming RC]

Rex: AGH! Take cover!!

[The toys ran out of the way. Only Mr Potato Head remains standing as RC smash into him, sending his parts flying.]

"Ooh, that's gotta hurt, honey." Mrs Potato Head said.

"I can't tell." Mr Potato Head said. "I took my eyes out before the rocket blasted off."

Mrs Potato Head sighed in annoyance.

[The rocket carries Woody, and Buzz higher and higher]

The seats were now shaking faster and faster too. Mitchell wobbled and nearly fell right off, till Goddard used an extending arm to catch him.

"Thanks, Goddard." Mitchell said. "Man, I wish I had a robotic pet like you!"

Woody: Ahhh!! This is the part where we blow up!

Buzz Lightyear: Not today!

[(Buzz presses the button on his chest. A familiar pair of wings jut out of Buzz, severing the now weakened tape that holds him to said rocket. The 2 toys separate from the rocket just before it blows up. The toys plummet towards the ground]

Woody: (covering his eyes) Ah-h-h-h-h!

Everyone gasped again.

"They're gonna be smashed to pieces!!!!!!!!!!!!!" screamed Carl.

[Just then Buzz banks under some power lines. Woody takes a peek and sees that they're flying]

Woody: Hey, Buzz! You're flying!

Buzz Lightyear: This isn't flying. This is falling, with style!

[Woody & Buzz soar through the sky]

Woody [laughs] To infinity, and beyond!!!!!

The audience smiled as Woody & Buzz soared through the air. It felt amazing. Even the villains had to admit, that was quite entertaining.

(They soar gracefully toward the moving truck, but then pass over it.)

Woody: [CONFUSED] Uh, Buzz! We missed the truck!

Buzz Lightyear: We're not aiming for the truck!

"So what are they aiming for?" asked Sally.

She soon found out.

[Woody looks to see that they're aiming for the family van. They fly over to the sun roof, Buzz retracts his wings, and then he & Woody drop into the car, landing into an open box near Andy, which has Buzz's cardboard spaceship, and Andy's cowboy hat in it. The noise from THE TOYS' landing gets Andy's attention. Andy turns to discover the limp Buzz and Woody lying in the box.)

Andy: [amazed] Hey, wow!!!

Andy's Mom: What? What is it?

Andy: (picking up the toys) Woody! Buzz!

Andy's Mom: Oh, great, you found them. Where were they?

Andy: Here! In the car!

Andy's Mom: See? Now, what did I tell you; Right where you left 'em.

[Andy hugged his favourite toys happily. Woody and Buzz give each other a knowing wink before they resume freezement.]

Everyone smiled tearfully. Woody & Buzz were back together with their kid, Andy, and they also were pleased that Woody & Buzz now accepted each other's differences. ANd even more better, Woody & Buzz had found out that Andy had enough love for both of them. Buzz might've been Andy's present favourite, but Woody would always be Andy's favourite toy since kindergarten.

"Now, are we near the end of the story?" asked Donkey.

"Not quite." The FilmMaster said. "Now, we're gonna see the toys' new life in Andy's new home.

He clapped his hands, and the walls of the auditorium changed, to reflect patterns of falling snow.

"Guess why it's snowing." he said to the audience.

"I know!" Jack Skellington said. "It's Christmas time!" he let out his giggle, like he did at the end of the song 'Making Christmas'.

"Ding ding, you're correcto, Skellington." the FilmMaster said.

"Christmas?" said Gingy. he began to shake. "Oh no. that means........"

"SANTA!!!" he suddenly screamed, and jumped into his popcorn.

"What's up with him?" asked the FilmMaster.

"Gingy has a issue with the one they call Santa Claus." Fiona said. "It's a long story." Shrek said.

"Riiiiight." the FilmMaster said. "Let's move on to the final bit of this film."

He started the film up.

[Fade to Andy's new house, at Christmas time. In the living room, Andy, his mom and Molly are around the Christmas tree, opening presents]

Andy: Which one can I open first?

Andy's Mom: Let's let Molly open one.

[In the Christmas tree, Sarge is using his binoculars to spy on them. His soldiers turn on the baby monitor to which they're holding in the branches. The other monitor plays on Andy's night stand, in Andy's new room. Buzz now with his helmet permanently opened, is sitting on the edge of Andy's bed while Hamm rests on the nightstand. They listen to the monitor]

Sarge: (over the monitor) Frankincense, this is Myrrh. Come in, Frankincense.

Hamm: (to the room) Hey, heads up everybody! It's showtime.

[The toys and Woody are mingling together like a typical office Christmas party]

Rex: Oh! It's time!

[The toys stop dancing and hurried over to the monitor. Woody is about to follow when Bo [who now has taken off her bonnet] grabs him with her crook]

Woody: Whoooooah! Oh! Bo! (rubbing his neck) There's gotta be a less painful way to get my attention.

Bo Peep: Merry Christmas, Sheriff.

Woody: Say, isn't that mistletoe?

Bo Peep: Mm-hmmmmm.

[Bo drops her crook, dips Woody and kisses him. Pan upwards to Billy, Goat & Gruff with mistletoe in their mouths]

"Ugh, gross." Rumpelstilskin snarled in disgust. "Love is sickening."

Dolores scowled at Rumpel from her seat. She knew what love was - hard for her, since she had a secret crush with Mariano, till Mirabel helped her to get over her shyness and become Mariano's girl. Felix placed a gentle hand on her shoulder.

[The toys are congregated below the monitor this time with excitement instead of fear this time]

Rex: (to Slinky) Maybe Andy'll get another dinosaur, like a leaf-eater. That way, I could play the, uh, dominant predator. Ha ha ha!

[Slinky laughs with him]

Buzz Lightyear: Quiet, everyone, quiet!

"I guess the toys apologized to Woody after what happened." Mirabel said.

"Exactly right." Slinky said. "We made amends, and all is right again."

"And I bet Woody & Buzz told you about the adventures you had." Camilo said.

"Yes, yes they did." Hamm said. "Just a shame we'll never see Sid's new life."

"I think it's probably for the best, Hamm." Agustin said.

Sarge: (over monitor) Molly's first present is... Mrs. Potato Head. Repeat. A Mrs. Potato Head.

[Mr. Potato Head looks overjoyed]

"That's where you came in, Mrs." Mr Potato Head said to his wife.

"Oh, honey." Mrs Potato Head said, before kissing her husband.

Hamm: Way to go, Idaho!

Mr. Potato Head: Gee, I better shave.

[He takes off his moustache piece and throws it away.]

"Nice!" said Bruno. "Sure wish I had a lover." he muttered.

[Woody climbs onto the bed and joins Buzz, his face covered in lipstick from Bo kissing him]

Sarge: (over monitor) Come in, Frankincense. Andy is now opening his first present. It’s-- (Static)

"Oh boy, here we go again." said Ratchet.

[Buzz bangs the side of the monitor]

Woody: Buzz. Buzz Lightyear. You are not worried, are you?

Sarge: (over monitor) I can't quite make out -- (Static)

Buzz Lightyear: (defensively) Me? No, no. Pfft. No; No, no, no, no. Mm-mm.

Sarge: (over monitor) ...A large box. It's it's... -- (Static)

Buzz Lightyear: ...Are you?

(The camera zooms out through the window as Woody says the following line.)

Woody: (laughing) Oh now, Buzz, what could Andy possibly get that is worse than you?

"I think we're about to find out." Puss said.

Andy: (over monitor) Oh, what is it? What is it? [A dog is heard barking] Wow, a puppy!!!

[(The camera zooms back through the window to a close-up of Woody and Buzz. They look at one another with a half-smile, half-grimace and laugh weakly.]

THE END.


And then once the movie ended, the screen turned to black and all of the lights came back on. Everyone applauded the film and the Toy Story 1 cast.

"Now that was a brilliant film." said Ratchet. "I couldn't agree more." Clank said.

"Me neither, Bolts." Rivet said.

"I agree, it was quite a brilliant film too." the FilmMaster said. "What a popular film it was back in it's heyday." Nostalgia said.

"Not bad for your first film, too, Delgados." the FilmMaster said to Victor & Carla Delgado.

"SI." Carla agreed. "SO, Senor FilmMaster, what film are we gonna watch next?" asked Victor.

"Soon, our next movie we'll be seeing, is a tale of love, emotion, and being there when needed," the FilmMaster said. "Don't worry, we'll have time to work it out after dinner."

The FilmMaster took them all outta the theatre and to the enormous dining room - this one was full of different pizzas, all based on many of the flavours of the pizzas in the world. Also, everyone was allowed to help themselves to whatever pizzas they liked.

The FilmMaster, having a few pizza slices of his own, watched his guests. A thought struck to him. He thought back to the time when Nostalgia mentioned when Thomas and Bertie had their own version of 'The Great Race'.

"Maybe I should have my guests react to it." he said to no one in particular.
