Good luck Zoidy!

Well, it's not a story, but it's a damned picture that kinda goes with the story, though I'm pretty sure there are no blue lightsabers in this story..

Chapter 7
A Fight to the Death


   This is it. thought Zoidy. The battle had begun. " You're surrounded by fifty of my best guards and myself. You've got nowhere to turn now." Chives said, laughing. He pulled out his lightsaber and ignited it, it's yellow hue reflecting on the metal walls of the prisoner hold. " Shut up and fight, dumbass." Professor Zoidy said, brandishing her own saber and igniting it, glaring at Chives with anger. The red-orange mixed with the yellow made the walls look to be made of fire. The rest of the crew ignited their own sabers, Fry standing beside Zoidy, ready for action, which seemed an unusual sight to Bender, who had know Fry to be lazy and stupid.
   "Why did you capture Bender and Professor Farnsworth!?" Professor Zoidy asked, enraged. " You know why." Chives spat, as he continued. " Farnsworth can easily make the most dangerous doomsday devices in the galaxy, while Bender can bend anything I want him to, once I "persuade" him..." Chives said, smirking at the anger Professor Zoidy and the crew expressed, especially Fry. Fry cursed at Chives as loudly as his voice would allow. " Hmm.. Never knew he was smart enough to know foul language, much less English at all..." Chives said. Julius Chives seemed to know just how to get each member angry at the right moment. Fry lept forward, but Professor Zoidy and Reyna caught him before he could get two feet from his original position. " Let me go! I can fight for myself!" Fry yelled, his anger almost totally controlling him now. " He's just trying to get you angry, Fry, you should know that. Don't let it get to you..." Leela said, Fry's face returning to it's normal emotion. Chives laughed at Fry, then turned to Leela. " Such wisdom from such a fine lady... It'll be a shame to kill you. You could have made a fine wife for me.." Chives said, fake pity in his voice. Leela made a face that showed utter disgust at the gesture Chives had just made. She held her saber and state to him "Go.." She twirled her lightsaber and continued. "..yourself."
   That did it. Chives rushed forward, heading for Leela. " Next time, show me respect!" Chives yelled. Before he could strike her however, Fry's and Professor Zoidy's sabers blocked his attack. Chives refocused his attention to the two who had blocked his attack. Chives yelled out to his guards while staring at the two. " Leave this battle to me!" he yelled, and the guards filed out, leaving the seven to fend for themselves. " Hmm.. Shoulda expected such a predictable move from such a stupid person..." Zoidy said, throwing his lightsaber off hers and Fry's. " This is where it gets personal..." Chives said, attacking Zoidy, the professor blocking it easily. " If that's all you've got, I'm soon to get bored.." Zoidy said, beaming from behind the red-orange light. " So you command, so it shall be.." Chives put forward a new effort Professor Zoidy had never seen. He was a worthy opponent, and she would soon tire if she didn't figure out his strategy. Their sabers clashed again and again. They were an even match, but Chives had the upper hand. Chives had had rigorous training and constant exercise, and Zoidy, while clearly not totally lazy, had had only that day to prepare for the worst. " Getting tired I see..." Chives said, Zoidy who was clearly a bit winded from the nonstop battle that was raging onwards. " Not on your life." Zoidy said, but her face showed different. Sweat rolled down off the bridge of her nose, and she was breathing heavily. The two circled and Fry rammed into Chives, and caught him off guard. Chives lept up with deadly speed and attacked Fry, knocking his saber clear across the room. Reyna and Leela watched in pure horror. " They'll kill themselves for sure.." Reyna said, in somewhat of a shock. Chives seized the moment in a heartbeat. He grabbed Fry's jacket and nearly choked him with it, putting the lightsaber to his throat. Fry made choking noises, showing Chives had indeed yanked his jacket too hard. " Let go of him now!" Zoidy yelled. She ran at Dr. Chives, and he countered, striking her right arm clean off. " You are lucky that's not the arm I use most often!" Zoidy yelled as she struck again, Reyna and Leela taking this as their cue to help out. Leela and Reyna attacked nonstop, Fry helping Zoidy up from the ground. Zoidy was really angry now. Not only had Chives abused her friends and nearly killed them all, now he had slashed her arm off. " Are you ok?" Fry asked, a concerned look on his face. Zoidy shook her head. She got up, with a little help from Fry and kept fighting.
   Chives seemed to be the one who was tiring out now. He could easily handle one person, but the two nonstop attacks and the quick defending shots he needed to pull off were slowly becoming less acurate. Leela and Reyna seemed to be showing no sign of tiring at all. They kept up their attacks, Fry joining along with Zoidy. Fry vowed to get Julius Chives back for what he had done. " Let me finish him off." Fry said, angrilly, staring at Zoidy with determination, the concern for her still in his eyes. Chives happily obliged. " Good. Now I get to kill the idiot who was always in my way.." Chives said gleefully, a somewhat mental likeness in his voice. He attacked, but rather sloppily, since he was clearly still enjoying the fact that Fry would sacrifice himself for another. Fry had noticed this, and took advantage of it immediately. Fry attacked with deadly precision, Chives laughing so hard, he barely blocked the attacks that were thrown at him. Leela, Reyna and Zoidy watched as Julius Chives slowly went seemingly insane for a moment and turned back to Fry, who now had total confidence. Chives had hoped he'd fall for this, but his plan had a huge flaw. It had not only given Fry confidence but total advantage. Fry slashed away, hitting Chives's right arm, Chives's lightsaber flying across the room. Fry slashed again and again, managing to hit his other arm, leaving him totally defenceless. " Hmm.. Looks like the idiot won.." Fry said, smiling broadly. He looked back at his defeated friends one last time and decided what must be done. There was no turning back. Fry stared at Chives with a menacing glare, Julius begging for Fry not to kill him." This is what you get for trying to murder us.." Fry said, bringing the blade over his head,and turning it so the blade faced down. He brang it down in what seemed to be slow motion and struck Chives in the heart, killing him in an instant. It was over. The Planet Express crew had won. Fry immidiately turned his saber off and ran over to the crew. Everyone hugged Fry in happiness. For once in his life, Fry had accomplished something he'd never though possible : fighting to protect those in which he cared about. Fry turned to Professor Zoidy, the others headed off to free Bender and Farnsworth. " Thanks Fry, you know, for everything." Zoidy said, a single tear of joy rolled down her face. Fry and Zoidy kissed, and Bender, who had just walked over, yelled in disgust " Ewww... Get a room you two!" The two went red in the face at that point, and they both agreed to never do that in Bender's prescence again.

Well, you'll all be happy to know, I've started writing Anthology of Interest Three, one that includes me and Reyna once again, but will be like the other AOIs... With new twists on the stories you've wished to see.

Alright already! Don't get your shorts in a knot!

Don't ask me to do that.

Well, here's the final chapter. It's sad to say... But I'm already working on my Anthology, and it's coming a bit easier than my first work. I know it's short. Going any longer and it would've been really sucky.


Chapter 8
The Almost Happy Ending


   Professor Zoidy still had one thing, despite how much joy Fry had given her within a matter of minutes, on her mind. Her right arm. Dr. Zoidberg, who was thankfully around for a change, said her arm had been damaged, and she'd have to get a robotic one. Bender wasn't too happy about the news, sensing somehow he would end up giving her the arm needed. " No offense, Dr. Zoidberg, but I don't trust you to put a new arm on me." Dr. Zoidberg made a sad purring noise and walked out. " Lousy future. How come Fry's lost almost every limb he has, including his head, and somehow it gets reattatched, but not my arm?" Zoidy asked, a bit peeved at Zoidberg's news. " Lightsabers deal major damage. Your arm can't be replaced as if it was just cut off with a laser or something of the sort. They cut the arm so jagged, it's easier getting a robotic arm than suffering if you have a doctor who can't put your arm back the right way." Leela said. " You could always get a robotic arm that looks like a real arm..." Reyna said.
   The Planet Express ship had taken off around two hours ago, right after Fry and Professor Zoidy quit bonning. Zoidy was still bummed about the idea, yet she knew that her new arm would be better, seeing as how her right arm and hand was completely useless for writing or doing anything for long periods of time. Zoidy got up from the small bunk in her room and walked out, heading straight for the couch to stare at the empty skies. Fry, who sensed her downcast mood sat next to her. Professor Zoidy looked down as soon as he sat, staring at the blank space that once would have contained an arm. " Still a bit bummed about the whole arm thing, huh?" Fry asked, sympathy in his voice. " Just a bit." Zoidy said. Bender walked over to the two with a new catalog full of robot parts. " I found the most awesome arm for you, and it's not mine!" Bender said, pointing to one that was fashioned in an exactly perfect human form. Professor Zoidy thought it was great, and immediately told Bender to order it. Bender went right to work on filling out the order form, especially after Leela and Zoidy had threatened him to do so or else.
   Ordering something was one thing, but awaiting it's arrival was another. Professor Zoidy was rather impatient, though it was only a few hour's wait. Sitting now in Zoidberg's office (this time with a more suitable doctor) Zoidy watched in both curiosity and horror at what was being done to her. When they finished putting the arm on, they poked certain points to make sure reflexes were normal and they were. Fry came running into the office, almost completely out of breath, and smiled as soon as he caught the professor's eye. Zoidy hopped off of the table and hugged Fry with both of her arms now, and knew that this was truly the best point in her life.

Seemed happy enough to me!

I really enjoyed reading this piece of fic and hope you intend to write more.

[Reply #49 on:]

Yes, and I will gladly post my first chapter of Anthology tomorrow if you like.  It was almost happy because I had my arm replaced, but yes, it's really a happy ending for all, considering nobody's dead yet 

[Reply #50 on:]

 

...nobody's dead yet 

Yet? Uh oh.

[Reply #51 on:]

No, no, I didn't mean it like that at all!!! Although, me and Fry dying gallantly saving the universe would be a very climactic and dramatic ending to any story... Then there's behind the story, where the cast talks about the story 

[Reply #52 on:]

I think death would be a bit extreme.

It would have to be that pesky "near death" that sitcom writers rely on.

Anthology of Intrest on its way?

[Reply #53 on:]

Well, I can post chapter one. I had no time yesterday.. This time I may post as I go.

Chapter One
Fry's What If Question

   It was a brilliant day outside the Planet Express office building during what would have been summer vacation from school for Reyna and Professor Zoidy, had they still been in the year of 2005. The crew was off on their own vacation for a change, lounging in the conference room, Fry and Bender playing chess, while Bender took bets at the same time on who'd win. Meanwhile, Professor Farnsworth, a 170 year old man, who was the only current living relative, unless you counted Cubert, and nobody did, that Fry had was tinkering with the What If machine, a device that could answer any what if question posed at it.
   "There! All finished! Anyone want to try out my improved What If machine?" Farnsworth asked the crew, who obviously were enraged at Bender for cheating at the chess game and were trying to help Fry get loose of Bender's grip, since Fry found out about the cheating in the first place. " When you least expect it, I'll kick your ass, Fry!" Bender yelled at Fry, the delivry boy paying the least bit of attention, now that Farnsworth had asked who wanted to try it out first. " Ok, so any risk takers, er, I mean, anyone want to go first?" the professor asked, laughing manically after he was done speaking. Fry took the chance and spoke up. " Oh, oh, I do! What if me and Leela were together?" Fry asked excitedly, but quickly shut up after Zoidy gave him an evil glance.
   The machine's glowing monitor started to give an illusion of sea waves flowing in a storm, violet in color and a picture slowly started to fade in subtlety, then showed Fry and Leela holding hands, walking down the streets of New New York and stopping now and again to look in shop windows. So far, Professor Zoidy was really peeved at Fry for asking this, but could also understand why he'd asked, since he's tried to win her heart so many times before. Her expression turned back into it's usual half-smiling self and she turned back to the screen to continue watching. The Fry on the screen had stopped moving, and that was when Zoidy and the crew were transported into the question itself, turing into ghostly figures that could only hover above the ground, but could not do anything to stop what they saw until it ended. To Zoidy, it was a nightmare. The Fry that the machine created seemed completely different from the Fry she knew. Of course, he was that way before the two had met, desparate for a date all the time. Fry watched with uncertainty of what would happen next. He was surprised when a thug came up to Leela and started gawking over her that he was rather muscular, like he had been when he had eaten the toilet sandwich a while back. Without any effort, the fake Fry beat up the guy and threw him to the ground, not leaving without giving him a threat first. Something, despite how Fry thought if he had a chance with Leela it would turn out like this, seemed off. It seemed as if the machine was playing off of his own fantasy, rather than coming up with it's own predictions. Since Fry had a one track mind, he put the thought aside and let the story play itself out for a while longer.
   The image faded into a new place, this one, the Planet Express conference room. Fry was talking to Farnsworth and Zoidy about some useless junk he came up with that made no sense whatsoever when Leela walked in, and Fry got up to meet her halfway. The cyclops collapsed in his arms, and Fry flew into a panic attack, both the virtual and the real Fry. Professor Zoidy grasped his arm and slapped him. Despite them being ghosts, Fry yelped in pain, but still watched in quiet horror.

That's really good.I look forward to reading the next part. 

[Reply #55 on:]

I'm a tad confused. Is this set after or before your last fic?

This is nice, and its a question we all want answered.

I couldn't agree more!

[Reply #56 on:]

Well, I honestly think after. But if you guys prefer before, suit yourself... it makes more sense after, I think. I'm caught... and I need your help. I've got the faintest idea of the possibilites of what ailes Leela.. any ideas you have would be much appreciated. Besides the obvious two "oh my god, she's really dead" or "holy shit, Fry, you go man! Wa to get her pregnant"

[Reply #57 on:]

Perhaps a film parody is in order.

[Reply #58 on:]

hmm....yes, of course. But what film, persay, hmm? Honestly, I'm bad with most parodies...but I admire the originality in that 

[Reply #59 on:]

great job Zoidy!

[Reply #60 on:]

Aww, thanks Commie 

[Reply #61 on:]

Cool chapter story so far keep at man 

[Reply #62 on:]

Certainly... I just have to have another... two months to think about it and what movie, if any to rip off... xD

May this be a hint at a Kiddnappster 2?

"Will Fry's love be enough to save her from the Dark Side? "

[Reply #63 on:]

Cool story there 
Can you post some more?

[Reply #64 on:]

Of course, as soon as I finish the first part to it. Then, I'm open for AOI ideas. They're certainly harder than they appear, and as far as I'm concerened, there will be a sequel to Master Kidnappster in the works soon... somehow, I will go to the dark side and Chives or someone else will lead me to it, or maybe I'll turn myself against my friends....who knows.

[Reply #65 on:]

Alright. I certainly waited long enough to post it...and here's the continuation of the beloved Anthology.It's not nearly the best work, but enjoy it anyways.

Chapter Two
Fry's Question Turns Tragic

   
   Zoidberg and Farnsworth stood over Leela, whom Fry carefully laid down on the floor, bent over her, Zoidberg doing an analasis, and coming up with a way to put it was hard. Of course, the lobster didn't know anything about being a doctor whatsoever, so Fry could at least have some hope left over after Dr. Zoidberg destroyed it. " I'm sorry Fry, she's dead," the lobster said mournfully and burst into tears. " Hold on a minute you imbicil lobster!" Professor Farnsworth yelled at Zoidberg, who sobbed even louder at the anger Farnsworth had shown towards him. Farnsworth slowly knelt down next to the unconsious cyclops to make an accurate analysis. " She seems to be well, so I have no clue as to why she collapsed," the professor said, bewildered.
   "Wake up you ignorant bitch!" Farnswroth yelled at Leela, whom awoke seconds awterwards giving Farnsworth quite a staredown. " Why the hell did you do that?!" Leela asked the professor, still glaring a little. " Well, if you weren't so damned..." Farnsworth said to her, but got cut off by Professor Zoidy, who had been aroused by the fighting and came down from the angry dome because the two were so loud. " Ok, enough already! I go to the angry dome to let off some steam about life, and I can hear you two, even though it's soundproof! Honestly, why bother fighting, especially when Leela will be victor?" The two glanced over at each other, Leela giving that " I told you so" look to the professor after Zoidy stopped talking. Fry jumped out of his chair and ran over to Leela, hugged her, and picked her up a full four inches off of the floor. "I thought you might have been dead! Zoidberg gave the report of you being dead, and Farsworth wasn't exactly helping either and.." But Leela cut off Fry before he could say anything more. Fry happened to casually glance over Leela's shoulder and saw Zoidy had a rather odd expresion on her face, as if in thought, yet, as if something else was on her mind as well. He let Leela's embrace end and he walked over to her, asking if something was wrong. Zoidy motioned silently for him to followed her to somewhere more...secluded from their crewmates. "Fry, I thought you loved me? Now, I respect your choices no matter what, but can we still be friends, right?" Professor Zoidy's face had gone from happy and brilliant to sad and gloomy in a matter of seconds, in fear of his answer, and her choice to be friends only.  Fry smiled gently and stared at her. "What?" the professor asked, a slight tone in her voice that was humorous. She repeated the question after he kept staring. " While you were staring at me, the Professor said something that you might find to be great news or not. I'm.....going to be a father." Fry said excitedly. Professor Zoidy smiled kindly and hugged Fry. Her expression soon turned serious however. Fry could tell that she had news to tell, and it wasn't exactly the greatest. " Fry, the past few weeks, I know you've noticed I've acted...different. I didn't want to bother you, but you must know now that...Leela being pregnant has nothing to do with you...well, not fully. "How long has she been this way and she didn't tell me?" Fry asked, neither angry nor unforgiving. "She's been pregnant for about a month Fry.She requested I not tell you. She didn't even tell me until two weeks ago. Why else would I tell you? Had she not fainted, I don't think you'd ever have known until it was too late to keep it secret. Now if you'll let me give you the shocking news." the female professor took a deep, slow and quivering breath, and started." As you know, Leela is pregnant. Professor Farnsworth to you she only carried one child. Bullcrap. She's going to have twins. But here comes a truth you may not accept. Yes, indeed one oh Leela's children is yours, but..." Fry stopped Professor Zoidy mid-statement. "What do you mean one? The Professor said-" Fry was cut off by Zoidy. "If you'd have let me finish... One child she carries is our own doing, but somehow, by some freak of science in which even I can't fully comprehend, the other child...is Zapp Brannigan's." Everyone gasped. Bender, on the other hand felt this was a moment to use a camera to capture Fry's expression on his face. " Until a few minutes ago, I didn't fully know this myself. Fansworth wasn' t the only one examining Leela you know. He's not exactly the most remembering type." Fry nodded, filled with so many emotions he was slightly confused. " I was taking one last look at the report we filled out, and I noticed something bothered me about it. I took closer examination into it and that pretty much tells you why I was in the angry dome. I couldn't live with myself not being able to tell you, so I yelled my guts out, then came down here to tell you about it. Fry didn't move. He looked frozen in time, in a face that showed pure rage, confusion and the urge to kill. Leela walked over to him to calm him. "Fry, I didn't tell you because..well, I really don't know why. Anyway you know now, so it doesn't matter anymore." The cyclops sat down at the conference table and swivelled her chair to look at Fry. "However he did it, he's gonna get an ass kicking courtesy of Fry's right foot and you can guess where it's going..." The real Planet Express crew was in awe of all the events that happened after that. The What If machine skipped to Zapp's ass being kicked, just like Fry had said. The real Farnsworth turned off the What If machine and pulled everyone's virtual gear wires out of the machine's ports. "That whole thing was a bunch of bull pies! Fry being physically and mentally able to kick someone's ass. Total crap! And Leela being pregnant with two different men's children at the same time..." Farnsworth ranted on as he pushed the new What If machine onto the floor and replaced it with it's predecessor. "If anyone else has a what if question, here's a more accurate turnout of how things would be." Farnsworth mumbled on about how the new What If machine worked horribly and kicked it before being fully satisfied enough with himself to shut up about it.

Second person fanfics are quite usually lame,
they're focused on one person and quite usually the same.
But Professor Zoidy here has a different tale to tell,
she went down this path and she did it quite well.
Bender was written outstandingly, of course,
(and compared to yours, my prose fic is decidedly worse.)
But one thing that's odd, and troubles me so,
is that Leela's response seems entirely null.
She doesn't seem jealous, not even a bit,
at the relationship building that you have seemingly writ.
I can see that you have this admiration for Fry,
But Leela's ignorance and un-actions are oddly awry.
Some of the humor is copied from canon,
but on the whole this work is good bit fanon.
Now I'm not going to lie, and say it's the best,
but I compared it to my Anthology, and I am quite impressed.
I haven't actually written my Anthology yet,
but I had a fair outline, up here, all ready and set.
By now, you see, I'm starting to digress,
and my rhyming fixation has become decidedly obsessed.
But don't you miss me, the shipper Xanfor dude,
I'll be back after a short interlude! 

[Reply #67 on:]

Wow, that certainly was quite the poem. I suppose you've found my weak spot. Writing Leela. I suppose some plotlines are used to commonly on TV, but the second anthology, which is the longest chapter I think is written..well, I'm not going to brag on it. It probably is the same as the rest of it...    I'll post it anyways. As for second person, I've always found myself writing that way. It does come as quite a challenge though...School's fault for wanting details. That why I write in 2nd person to begin with. I might wander into other styles to try a hand at it, but this is my main style...That's a gift and a burdon at the same time.
My Leela writing may not be the best,
but I'm certainly putting it up to the test.
Without further ado I give you chapter three
and I'm certainly hoping that you will agree
this is superior to all that before it
and that you will never ignore it.


Chapter 3
Professor Zoidy's Question

   
      Professor Zoidy stepped out about a foot in front of everyone and turned to directly face the What If machine. She pulled the microphone down a little and said into it:
"What if life was like a crime show?"  Everyone oohed and ahhed as the screen changed colors and a black car and two people inside it showed up, both at the moment, unidentifiable. The car pulled out of the alleyway it was in silently, and the two people inside were Fry and Bender. The car was a black 1982 Trans Am named K.A.T.T., which stood for Knight Agencies Three Thousand and was used for restoring justice to city streets. Wilton Knight, the man who designed the car had passed away years ago, but Fry, KATT's driver, kept his job at the foundation. He felt he had to repay his debt for giving him his life back. Bender just happened to be the subject of his next assignment. One of Bender's closest friends was murdered, a girl by the name of Amy Wong, but by whom, or what, he didn't know. Fry kept asking questions about the scene none-the-less. "Look, all I know is the other chick she works with, Leela, has a hate going for Amy. I'm not sayin' she did it, but I'mnot sayin' she didn't either." Bender said, pulling out a cigar. "No smoking in the car or I'll eject you out the sunroof." KATT said to Bender. "Don't smoke da blah blah blah blah.." Bender mocked back. "Alright, stop it, the both of you. You're acting like children." Fry said, smiling to himself. They pulled into the scene of the crime, the Planet Express corporation, a company that shipped packages around the globe from other companies. Fry and Bender got out of the car and walked into the building. Fry looked back at KATT and whispered to him. "Keep your scanners peeled for anything unusual, ok buddy?" Fry asked. "Of course, Fry." KATT replied back. The glowing red scanner located between KATT's headlights lit up and swept back and forth with a swoosh-like sound that went silent a few seconds later.  Fry and Bender came to a locked door that looked suspicious. Fry looked inside his coat pocket and found what he was looking for - a lock pick. He inserted it into the door's lock and it clicked almost soundlessly when it opened. Fry quickly put the tool back in it's case and back into the inside pocket of his coat and continued walking towards the place Bender had described. Following Bender's direction, the two ended up in the employee's lounge, which had been left a mess by the killer. "It looks like the killer was looking for more than someone to stab. Did any of you own anything valuable that you kept here at the office?" Fry asked Bender, who shook his head no. "Not that I'm aware of, but the entire staff always had those secrets nobody knew but them. The bastards.." Fry rummaged through some of the piles of clothing, empty drawers and whatever else was in a pile, and found only one clue: a small gun, possibly the one used to kill Amy. Fry pocketed the gun and told Bender to come with him. The two exited the building swiftly and Fry ran towards KATT at a jogging pace, opened the door and sat down in the driver's seat. "KATT, I need you to run a scan on this gun and tell me everything about it." Fry said, a serious tone in his voice. KATT used his built-in analyzer and quickly gave a reply. "Fry, I've accuired all the information. The gun was a limited-edition Railblazer that cost about $250,000 and was only sold in select stores across the Earth. The owner of it is a man named Hermes Conrad, age late thirties to early forties, about six foot in height. He lives in this area." KATT stated."Where? I think we need to have a little talk with this "Hermes" and see if he knows anything. We also need to talk to a female named Turanga Leela. Bender said she had a grudge against Amy." Fry took the gun out of the analyzer and put it safely in KATT's glove compartment as KATT gave directions to both of the possible murderer's adresses. First, however, KATT suggested they drop Bender off  at his apartment so he could be "safe". "You just didn't want him to mess with you." Fry said, smirking childishly. "To be honest, yes. He's quite annoying. That, and you usually do that to keep the person, or in this case robot, away from the crime scene." KATT said. "Well, yeah, I guess I do. Today ya beat me to it." Fry smiled as he thought about the two fighting earlier." I think we should stop by Leela's place first." Fry said as KATT turned left onto a street full of apartments and houses that looked almost brand new, as if they'd only been there maybe a year or two. They stopped in front of a grey house near the end of the street and pulled over to the curb and parked. Fry got out and walked to Leela's door, warning KATT to look for anything out of the ordinary in the neighborhood while he was talking to the woman. Fry knocked on her door and she kindly let him in and asked his name. "My name is Fry Knight and I work for the Foundation of Law and Government. Nice to meet you, Leela." Fry smiled at the cyclops and she made a face that asked how he knew her name. "Bender told me about what happened and I came to ask you some questions." Fry said to answer her facial expression. " I never killed her. When I came into work that morning she had already been dead for who knows how long." Leela said, her tone suggesing her emotions were about to get the best of her, despite her hate for Amy Bender had told him about. Fry took her in an embrace and she let her emotions flow. Tears fell from her eyes as she held onto his embrace. The embrace ended and Fry rubbed her shoulder in a comforting manor and said it would be best for her to come along with himself and KATT so the police couldn't jail her. " I think I know who killed Amy. It had to be Hermes. Why else whould he evade police?" Leela asked inquizitively. "Maybe Hermes is innocent and someone else did it. So far I've had no leads, but we have to find Hermes." Fry told the cyclops woman. Just seconds after Fry had stopped talking a car raced down the road at about 90 mph. "KATT, go into pursuit mode and see if you can catch the liscense plate number on that car!" Fry yelled as he pressed the pursuit mode button on KATT's dashboard. "KATT? Who's KATT?" Leela asked. "KATT, meet Leela. Leela, KATT." Fry distractedly yelled as he pressed the gas further down to the floorboard."Hello, Leela. I am the Knight Agencies Three Thousand. K.-A.-T.-T- KATT if you prefer." KATT said to Leela. The car took a hard right and disappeared from KATT's scanners."I'm sorry, Fry. He's literally disappeared from my scanners." Fry cursed as KATT said this to him. " A talking car that's actually nice to you. Now I know I've lost it." Leela said faintly.

@ Xanfor: You, sir, have obviously never heard KITT's voice. He's a damn fine mancar. I never said it was a regualer car....It may hover, it may not, the What If Machine doesn't exactly (conveniently) show. You can convert a car 

No it doesn't make sense
But you must be quite dense
to not know who KITT is and why
He's from the show that most people know
Knight Rider, Xan you make me cry. 

On the contrary, Xan, Knight Rider and KITT are from the 1980s, Inspector Gadget came afterwards. Two movies, no less, I liked both. You've missed a legend boy. Learn it. Live it. Smell it. Then we'll talk.

I blame it on the media.

[Reply #71 on:]

Aww, don't get too worked up... Here, work it out *hands over stress executive buddy 8000* Anywho, the story doesn't end there. One chapter to go. If I'd have made it any longer, I'd have writtien it to be just a plain Knight Rider episode   
Plus, there was a female car like KITT, named KIFT, the Knight Industries Four Thousand that was in a spinoff movie Knight Rider 2000. Yes, I know a lot xD If you really wanna know what it's about, visit Wikipedia. Now, some of the info may be inacurate, but I read it over and it seemed fine to me.

   "Do you have any new leads, Fry?" Professor Farnsworth, head of the FoL&G
( the Foundation of Law and Government) asked over KATT's telephone. "No, Professor, none yet. But KATT did get some licensce plate numbers from a car that was evading something and us when we started to go after him. KATT's sending them now. The plate number is 19II-DECM. "It seems this car was stolen by Hermes Conrad. But another name comes up as well. Scruffy." Farnsworth said grimly. "Well whoever it was, I'm gonna find them and I'm gonna put 'em in jail. " Fry stated curtly. He walked out in his usual walking style and hopped into KATT, started the engine and drove off, leaving smoke behind from the tires. He just remembered something. He had to go back to Planet Express and check the lounge one more time. If he remembered Scruffy correctly, he had once worked at the Foundation but quit to work at a delivery company. Farnsworth had never said which one, but Fry had a feeling it was Planet Express. "Fry, I took some pictures from the other night when you and Bender went to the crime scene. I found some articles of clothing left behind by the murderer. A brown hat among other things was near the doorway and left in a position suggesting it fell off of the person's head after he left." KATT said to Fry. "Yeah, but if he shot Amy, wouldn't his fingerprints be on the gun?" Fry inquired. "Not necessarily, Fry. Someone can kill a man and put the gun in his hand, pull the trigger with the dead man's fingers and clean his hands afterwards to makes sure his fingerprints weren't left behind. I looked into it and the reason we cannot find Hermes Conrad is because he died the same night Amy did, but nobody knew because the body wasn't left in the Planet Express employee's lounge. "Good work KATT!" Fry said to the intelligent car. "Anytime, Fry." KATT replied. Fry jumped out of the car, flung open the door to Planet Express and raced to the employee lounge. The hat was lying on the floor, just like KATT had stated on their way back for another look. He picked up the hat and found Scruffy standing in the doorway. "Scruffy did kill them people. Now Scruffy has to deal with you so you won't talk and Scruffy can remain a free man," the janitor said menacingly in his rough voice. Fry punched a button on his wristcom and whispered into it. "KATT, block the doorway and call the police. I just found the murderer." the red-haired man said. "Right away Fry. Please be careful." KATT said in response to Fry. Scruffy pulled a knife from his pocket that still had bloodstains on it from the last two murders. He stabbed at the air between Fry and himself, daring Fry to try and hit him.
Fry put his hands up in front of him, his palms not made into fists. He awaited the right moment to seize the knife and punch Scruffy in the stomache to stun him. Scruffy lunged with the knife, nearly missing Fry's head, and Fry retaliated by grabbing Scruffy's arm, twisting it so his hand would drop the knife, and then throwing Scruffy to the ground. Sirens could be heard outside and the police came rushing in, immediately taking Scruffy in handcuffs.

   "I'm so glad Scruffy was taken into custody. Even if Amy and I didn't et along all the time, I can finally rest knowing nobody thinks I killed her. Thanks Fry.You're a regular knight in shining armor."Leela said gleefully as she kissed him. "Well, goodbye, Leela. Maybe we'll see each other again," the red-head halfway yelled to her from the curb. "Goodbye Fry. Goodbye KATT! It was nice to meet the both of you." Leela called back as she waved. "As it was nice to meet you. Goodbye." KATT said, a new tone filling his voice synthesizer. The two rode off into the evening and back to the Foundation, where their next mission would be awaiting them when they got back.

Forgive me for my earlier ignorance, my good chum. Such foolishness on my part, for I truly have seemed to have forgotten the legend. Now that I've reacquainted myself with the spoofee of your parody, I may now sit back without any further provocations and allow myself to enjoy the elegancy of it's utterly deep subtleness into the aforementioned show which you are gently satirizing.

In other words: Remembered it, read yours, got it this time, me sorry.   

[Reply #73 on:]

Most accepted, my good chum. I'm still working on chapter five... I'll post it when I feel it's finished.... Might not have chapter six come as fast. I'm telling you, Zoidberg is hard stuff to write...well, the way I went about it anyways..

[Reply #74 on:]

Here, forgive me (again) for intruding (again) with a little suggestion for writing parodies. Since I have no poetry i my head at the moment, I'll just jump right in.

You don't want to use the same name for the car. (I think. It is your car, however.) The overall plot can come right from a 'Knight Rider' episode, and you should use as many catch phrases as possible, but the setting must be the future in order to still be 'Futurama'. So, I kindly suggest to you (at least next time, I'm not badmouthing you here!) that even if you want to keep the 1982 converted Trans-Am, (which I don't blame you!), change it's name to 'Knight Agencies Three Thousand'. This has three advantages. One, you have it say 'three thousand'. It uses the same letters as before and reminds the reader that it's still 'Futurama' here. Two, now that it's spelled 'KATT', you won't get into trouble with any copyright laws. And finally, when somebody instantaneously correlates this spoof car with it's spoofee, the first thing they think is 'KITT-KATT'. Amusing, subtle, and not blaringly in-your-face at all. (Not that you were before, but it's happened to me several times.  )

But anyway, it's not all that important. He's a darn fine mancar, isn't he?

[Reply #75 on:]

*fangirl squeal* Yes, Xanfor. Yes he is    I'll change all of that to KATT. Very good... I never thought of changing it... ^^;;;;

Edit: Oh look, the paragraphs seem to have self-edited. Thank God for the mystery of magic... 

[Reply #76 on:]

Aww, crud, that's the last time I go on a helpful rant!   
As you know, I love spoofing everything in my fics.

*edited because pointless sappy sad stuff was making my heart hurt*

[Reply #77 on:]

Aww, I'm sorry... I tell ya what... it can be...uhhh....something..... Entertainment....uhhh... and if it wasn't for movies like The Benchwarmers and Futurama's two second bit, I'd never have known it existed. It's a chain reaction, man.

[Reply #78 on:]

Ah, it's fine.  You inspired me to work on my Anthology! It'll be a while before it's ready, but still... I'll be answering questions like 'What if Bender got married?' and 'What if this question was never axed?', etc.

Thank you, Zoidy! :an nonexistant emoticon here symbolizing a friendly hug:

[Reply #79 on:]

Bender would loot all the crap from the chick and then get a divorce....not sure if he'd get custody of himself though...

(Michael to KITT: You're about as fun as a divorce. I turned you on and now I can't shut you up!"
KITT: I get custody of me.

Of course the phrase "turn you on means literally turned KITT on with a switch...ok, buttons..)
