Chapter 20: Actually Becoming a Team
Miss Squibbles drove the whole team to where Mike and Y/N said to go. She parked just outside the area and they all piled out.
"Thanks, Mom," Squishy said.
"Have fun, kids! I'll just be here listening to my tunes," Miss Squibbles informed.
They shut the door, she rolled up the window, and played rock 'n' roll music at the loudest volume. The team walked towards the fence.
"Hey, uh, where are we?" Art asked.
"The big leagues," Mike answered.
"This is the place Mike and I were inspired to become Scarers in the first place," Y/N explained.
They got to the fence to see Monsters Inc. They all looked at in amazement.
"Holy roly-poly," Don responded.
"Wow," Terri and Terry exclaimed.
"Nice fence," Art commented, looking at the wrong thing.
"This is amazing, guys," Squishy said.
"We're not stopping here," Y/N smirked, holding wire cutters.
"I've never seen this side of you, sis," Mike chuckled.
"It's overdue. Now let's get going," Y/N instructed.
Sulley was impressed with how rebellious Y/N could be. He added another thing he liked about her.
She cut a large hole in the fence and they went in. They started making their way to the roof of the place.
"This is crazy. We're going to get arrested!" Squishy pointed out and Mike shushed him.
They finally got to the window of the Scare Floor and watched in awe. Doors would come in and go out as Scarers prepared to get screams for the monster world.
"Look at them. They're going into the human world, and they don't even look scared!" Squishy said.
"Wow," the other members replied.
"Take a good look, fellas. See what they all have in common?" Mike asked.
They all looked, not knowing the answer.
"Uh...No, not really," Squishy answered.
"Exactly. There's no one type of Scarer," Mike stated.
"The best Scarers use their differences to their advantage," Y/N explained.
Squishy saw one monster that looked like an adorable fur ball, but then it grew eight legs and hissed terrifyingly.
"Wow," he commented.
"Terri? Look," Terry instructed.
They both saw a monster that had three heads and smiled at each other.
Sulley felt that what Y/N thought of really helped the team.
"Hey! Look at that old feller racking up the big numbers!" Don chuckled, pointing at a blue, furry monster, with a huge, gray mustache.
"Don, that old fella is Earl 'The Terror' Thompson!" Mike said.
"What? Where? That's really him?" Sulley asked.
"He held the Scare Record for three years!" Mike added.
"Oh! Third door from the end!" Sulley replied.
"Carla 'Killer Claws' Benitez!" Y/N exclaimed excitedly, seeing a tall, yellow, female monster enter through a door.
"Look! It's 'Screaming' Bob Gunderson! I still have his rookie card," Sulley said, pointing at a red, furry monster.
"Us too!" Mike responded.
"Doesn't have the speed anymore," Sulley started.
"But his technique is flawless," all three monsters said together.
"You collected Scare Cards, huh?" Y/N asked.
"Yep. 450 of them," Sulley answered.
"Impressive. We have 6,000 still in mid condition each, but, you know, 450 is pretty good, too," Mike responded, making Sulley playfully roll his eyes.
"Hey, look at me! I'm Earl 'The Terror' Thompson!" Squishy announced and roared.
This impressed the other members and Y/N, Mike, and Sulley just smiled until they turned into serious expressions.
"I've been a real jerk," Sulley admitted.
"So have I. But it's not too late. We could be a great team. We just need to start working together," Mike said.
Sulley nodded and they shook hands.
"Finally! I've been waiting for you two to become friends," Y/N remarked, making the two chuckle.
"And now that we're not at each other's throats anymore, I can be one of the monsters who's waiting for you two to get together," Mike smirked.
Y/N and Sulley blushed out of embarrassment, but when they locked eyes they couldn't help but smile.
Then a flashlight shown on them and they looked to see cops.
"Hey! What are you doing up there?" one of them asked.
"I can't go back to jail!" Art yelled then ran.
The others followed suit, but the police kept chasing them.
"Come on!" Mike urged.
"They're right behind us!" Don shouted.
"Get back here!" another cop commanded.
They reached a ladder, but continued running when police officers started climbing it.
"Up there! Get them!" a third cop said.
They jumped to the next rooftop until Squishy almost fell.
"Whoo-hoo-hoo!" Squishy exclaimed, until Sulley got him, and Squishy said, "Thanks, brother!"
"Don't mention it," Sulley answered, putting him on his back.
They kept going until Don started slowing down.
"I'm fine, really! It's just a little heart attack," he insisted, but Sulley picked him up.
"Aw...I want a piece of that action!" Art said and jumped on Sulley, as did Terri and Terry.
"Squishy! Terri! Terry!" Y/N yelled from above and held her hands out.
Squishy, Terri, and Terry grabbed her hands and she flew close enough to Mike, Sulley, Don, and Art.
They finally made it to the fence.
"Mom! Start the car!" Squishy called out.
"What?" Miss Squibbles asked.
"Start the car!" he repeated.
"Stop the bar?" she guessed.
"The car! Start the car!" Squishy yelled.
"Oh! Okay," Miss Squibbles answered and obeyed.
Y/N landed by the car as the others made it there too and they all started piling in.
"Come on, come on, come on, come on!" Mike urged.
"Get in! Get in!" Y/N commanded.
Once they got in, Squishy said, "Mom, go!"
"Seat belts," Miss Squibbles requested.
They all obeyed and he repeated, "Okay, go!"
"Does anyone want gum?" she asked.
"Just drive!" Squishy yelled.
"Okay. Here we go!" Miss Squibbles said then Mike floored it.
They managed to get away right on time.
"Oh, yeah! Let's break in somewhere else!" Art exclaimed.
Sulley and Y/N slumped in the middle seats, relieved they made it out of there.
"You know Y/N, I just realized something: you're not the bookworm-hottie I though you were. You're a rebellious-bookworm-hottie," Sulley commented.
Y/N giggled and responded, "And I just realized that that's the nicest thing you've said to me."
"Yeah," he said then added seriously, "Listen, I feel like I should apologize to you for everything."
"Why me? You never did anything to me except glare at me. And that was for two minutes," Y/N pointed out.
"Yeah, but when Mike and I would argue, we would always drag you into them. We both wanted to do our own thing, but you actually wanted to bring the group together and I was the main cause of us not working together," he explained.
She placed her hand on his paw and said, "Well, apology accepted. I'm just glad that you realized what you did wrong and admitted it. Now we can concentrate on winning the Scare Games."
She kissed his cheek, making him blush and she got ready to sleep. She cuddled up next to him and he wrapped an arm around her. When they got back, he picked her up bridal style and tucked her in bed. Things just might get better for the team.

A/N You and Mike brought the confidence back to the team. Nice work! 👍
