Pancake's Odd Discoveries in Toontown (In Progress)

Pancake's Odd Discoveries

The toons, a type of anthropomorphic creature similar to furries, live a very unique life style filled with fun and pranks, a diet consisting of mostly sugary treats, and working together as a community. Their town might seem like the happiest place in the world, but, for nearly as long as its existed, a mysterious corporation existed alongside. It produces what seem to be robots of artificial intelligence, created for the sole purpose of taking over Toontown. However, they fought back, not necessarily with weapons but with items that had been mass produced for the large amount of joke shops present. For years, with no end in sight, the war continues every day.

A deep sky blue cat in a flowery violet purple dress stands in line behind some other colorful toons, impatiently tapping her bare pawfoot against the lightly colored wooden floor. "Come on, pick your task for the day already." She thinks to herself, tired of waiting. She reaches her paw up and fidgets with her pink fur bow and her tail wiggles tucked in her dress. She's more excited than normal to get to work, because she's decided she's strong enough to take on a cog office all by herself.

When its finally her turn, she approaches the chubby blue dog behind the counter with a friendly smile. He greets her, "Good morning Pancake!" and lays out some papers. After a quick look-over she picks up the task to take down a lawbot building. "Be careful out there and dont forget to take some friends!" The dog worker suggests in a cheerful tone. "Sure thing, thanks!" Pancake replies without actually intending on bringing other toons.

After exiting the headquarters, she treads straight through the middle of the snow covered town towards Polar Place, where lawbots were known to invade toons' shops. She passes by other toons standing around happily conversing, munching on candy, tossing snowballs about. Normally she would be happy to join them, but since she's challenged herself with this task, there's no way she would let herself get distracted. She ignores them and pushes forward to her destination.

Standing in front of the tall grey building, Pancake feels nervous. Its eerie design alone is enough to make one feel uneasy, there's no windows or welcoming signs. Only grey, and a single elevator as the entrance. .She had walked all the way to the end of the street, to find a building where toons were less likely to join her. She was right. Looking around, the streets seemed empty of anything except for cogs stomping about. "Well, this is it...time to take it down all by myself!" She tells herself as she steps paw onto the elevator. The doors begin to slide closed, and only now does Pancake decide to check her bag for what gags she brought. Her ears droop and her stomach churns as she sees she's forgotten to buy supplies, and only has a few items on her. The moment she looks up with a changed mind, the doors clamp closed and the elevator begins to ascend...

Neighboring Toontown, a dull grey metal walled factory stands, surrounded by a ground that's as black as coal, making some mysterious metal clashing noises. Standing on a conveyor belt inside, being scooted along in line with hundreds of other cogs, a Legal Eagle opens his eyes. He moves his lenses around taking in information about his surroundings. Just before powering all the way on, this machine of artificial intelligence had run a startup program, giving him a visual not seen with his eyes.

Colorful furries prance around, laughing maniacally, throwing food and random toys at everything in sight. Windows shatter and buildings fall. "These are toons. They are dangerous, psychotic creatures that want nothing more than to torture others for their own amusement. Your job as a Cog is to work together to put an end to these creatures' games, and take back the land that was once ours to harvest its resources. All proceeds will fund better and more efficient AI technology, to eventually aid the entire world and make lives easier for everybody!" The long startup then talks about how breaking toons spirit is the best way to chase them away. Killing is not necessary for robots being designed to help others. It goes over techniques, and a layout of the land, and what to do in case of emergencies.
