Disclaimer: I don't own Tiny Toons or any of its characters

A/N: Ok, as promised, and as the story that won the poll I held about two months ago, I would start this story after two more updates to other stories. This story will be somewhat of a parody of Titanic (1997), as well as the prequel to one of my own stories, "Stranded on Tiny Island".

Note: Just like all my other Tiny Toon fanfics, and technically it has to be, the cast is 19-20 years old.

-------------------------------

"I can't believe we're actually going on a cruise." Babs yelled out in utter joy and excitement, as she danced and hopped around Buster, who was busy dragging his and Babs's bags on a cart

"Yeah, I'm also quite...excited." Buster stated between pants

"It's like a dream come true for anyone, a long, luxurious cruise, fine dining, and five-star service and all of it with the rabbit of my dreams." Babs stated as she hugged Buster's arm.

Buster just looked at Babs with a bright smile and said, "I guess it really is a dream come true." then kissed Babs on her head

It was summer break, again, but this time was different, this time they were graduates from high-school level cartoon training and they were going to share this cruise with close friends. Buster, Babs, Hamton, Fifi, Plucky, Shirley, Furball, and Calamity, had been given offers to go on this cruise, along with the other toons. As tempting as it was to everyone at the Looniversity, most decided not to go out of fear of something disastrous happening or just because they already had plans and didn't want to go, so only eight had chosen to take the Looney Tunes up on their offer. The offer also was only for the tickets, nothing else, things such as clothes, transportation to the dock, and of course any meal they have at the restaurant close to the pier previous to leaving were all on their own personal budget.

It took about 30 minutes, but they finally made it to the restaurant where everybody had agreed to meet prior to getting on board the ship for a quick lunch. Everyone else had gotten there before Buster and Babs did, and just like them, the guys had only one or two pieces of luggage while the girls had about five. To make it easier for the others to tell whose bags belonged to who they chose a particular color: Buster's was blue, Babs's were pink, Hamton's were red, Fifi's were purple, Plucky's was white, Shirley's were yellow, Calamity's was grey, and Furball...well, he was just carrying a simple backpack with the essentials.

"Hello guys." Buster and Babs greeted the others in unison.

"Hey, look who finally made it." Plucky stated

"Bon mantin Babs. Bon mantin Buster." Fifi greeted them, then hugged both

"Late as usual, huh guys?" Calamity stated jokingly as he shook hands with Buster

"Hey, we're not always late." Buster stated

"Yeah! Well not me anyway, Buster and Plucky are the ones who are always late." Babs stated

"Hey!" Buster and Plucky shouted

After a quick laugh, they all walked into the restaurant, where Go-Go-Dodo had decided to pop up to see them off and to spend some time with them before they go on their trip. They had chosen to sit at a booth and sat in a way that Shirley sat at one end and Plucky, who was sitting next to her, sat in a way he could only see her if he was speaking to her. They all had decided to eat burgers, so they could still find time to get on board the ship and find their rooms in time to join the other passengers in waving good-bye.

"Like, does anybody but me find it strange to be eating this or some junk?" Shirley asked as stared at the burger on her plate.

"I had a word with the writer before this, he said it was a comedy he came up with and wanted to use." Buster stated

"Besides, I've been listening in class lately, and well, herbivores can eat some..." Plucky was adding before Shirley interrupted him

"Like, wait, did I just hear you say...you, like, actually listened in class?!"

"Yeah, so?" Plucky asked

"Wow, it must've happened, hell has finally frozen over." Buster stated

"Ha ha, very funny, Buster." Plucky stated with crossed arms, and then turned his attention back to Shirley, "Like I was saying, it might not actually be that way, that herbivores always eat veggies."

"You don't say."

"Yeah, during times of food shortage, some herbivores might actually consider eating meat. Not that they kill, they just scavenge..."

As Plucky talked to Shirley about the logic he heard about how herbivores actually eating bits of meat at times, Buster was readying himself to eat. (This in case you missed this info: Plucky is sitting in a way he could only see Shirley when he is talking to her)

"Do vous tink zhat it ez true about vhat Plucky ez saying?" Fifi asked

"Maybe, but does it matter?" Buster asked, "I mean all of us do eat at Weenie Burger."

"Well that is true..." Babs stated as she put a fist under her chin, "But I thought Weenie Burger doesn't have meat in their burgers."

"It's hard to tell, I mean remember when we worked there? All they did is give us something to throw into a machine and it became burger patties." Buster stated

"I still can't believe we still eat there." Babs stated

"Well, if you think about it, at least this burger won't be as bad as Weenie Burger." Buster stated just before Babs jumped and hugged him tightly.

Apparently just as Buster said that, Babs's burger patty decided to crawl out of the sandwich and off her plate. The entire toon gang, with the exception of Plucky and Shirley, stared at the sight with wide-eyes at it crawled its way over to Buster's plate where it actually started growling at his burger. After three seconds of growling, Buster's meat patty started returning the hostility and began growling back.

"I take back what I said, Weenie Burger is much better." Buster replied, receiving a nod of agreement from all his friends

Just at that moment, Buster and Babs's meat patties started fighting one another like wild animals over territory. At this point Shirley began to wonder what that noise was and looked over at the others and stared in amazement as she saw two pieces of meat fighting one another.

"Uh….Plucky, you might want to, like, look at this." Shirley stated trying to get Plucky to see this for himself

"Not now, Shirl, I haven't finished yet." Plucky stated not even noticing that Shirley was pointing to something behind him.

The two meat patties were fighting rather violently by now, as they knocked down salt and pepper shakers, collided with the buns they had originally been in, tearing it apart as they passed, and also destroying a plate. Somehow in the ruckus both bumped into Dodo's plate, which actually angered Dodo's meat patty, and it hopped out, turning the one-on-one battle to a three-way free-for-all.

Dodo, through it all, wasn't fazed at all as he sat there watching the three former-lunches fight. It wasn't long until the entire restaurant caught wind and looked in amazement and disgust as they watched the meat fight.

As Dodo looked to his friends, then stated, "I put three dollars down on my lunch.", slamming three dollars onto the table as he smiled.

"Is this really a good time to be throwing in bets?" Buster asked

"Moi shall meet vous with zhat on Babs's loonch." Fifi stated as she slammed down three dollars herself

"Fifi!" Babs stated in surprise.

"Sorry, moi joost got in zhe mood for un challenge." Fifi stated embarrassingly

"Like, Plucky, you really got to take a look at this." Shirley stated

"Hold on, not yet." Plucky stated, and then continued on with his conversation.

Shirley just slumped her head in defeat, then looking at Plucky, then at the fight, then at Plucky again, she let her aura self out. While she listened to her boyfriend talk, her aura self will watch the fight and inform her of which one wins.

As the fight wore on, one of the patties eventually stopped the fighting, and under their own language, managed to convince the other to try fighting Dodo. Calamity looked at this with great interest, not only were they actually alive, but they were now consulting each other on a joined plan. Eventually the patties ended their conference, and at the same time jumped Go-go, knocking him out his chair and onto the ground.

Go-go eventually got the better of them and threw all three patties onto the table, then jumped onto the table himself, suddenly dressed in a masked wrestler's outfit. About now, the initial shock of moving meat passed and now the toonsters and other restaurant customers had began cheering Go-go on.

"Come on! Body Slam 'em!" a customer shouted, then a mess of other decided to chant for a body slam

Go-go pleased the crowd by first slamming the patties onto the table with a 'plop' and jumped and body slammed two out of the three. One had managed to slip away, and using Furball's head as a way to get higher, jumped up and tackled Go-Go on his back. As the other two slipped out from under Go-go, the formed themselves in to fists. As Go-go got back onto his feet the two meat fists took turns jumping up and down, throwing punches at Go-go.

"Come on, Go-go! Show them a toon can't be beaten by lunch." Buster yelled out

"Use a plate!" Another customer shouted

Go-go picked up his plate and used it as a shield from their punches, once one got stuck to the plate, he slammed the plate on the table without breaking it. As the other one came in for another punch, Go-go uppercut it and it went flying up to the ceiling where it stuck. The other one got wise and picked up the napkin dispenser and threw it, which missed Go-go by an inch. About this time the one stuck to the ceiling and under the plate jumped on the other meat patty, fusing with it so it was now a large chunk of meat.

"Their getting desperate." a customer stated

"It's the home-stretch, use anything in your arsenal!" Furball yelled out

Go-go understood and pulled at the collar of his costume and stuck one hand in to pull out a baseball bat. "Now we're on the same page." he stated with a toothy grin

As the meat thing dove at Go-go, he swung the bat, but missed so the meat got all over his head, as if trying to suffocate him. Go-go though pulled his head off and threw it on the ground, splattering the meat onto the could floor of the restaurant. As the meat crawled off his head, Go-go's body jumped off the table and picked his head back and put it back where it belonged. As he spat out bits of meat that got into his mouth, he pulled out a huge sledge hammer from some pocket his uniform apparently had.

"Finish it!" several customers chanted, until the entire restaurant was chanting the phrase.

Go-go missed several times, smashing the tiling the flooring was made of, but by his third swing he hit the meat right on the dot. It didn't splatter, but it did go unconscious. Go-go quickly switched to a golfers cloths and picked up the meat and rolled into a ball. After pulling out a wood, the golf club used when you tee off, and hit the meat thing straight into the kitchen and into an open fire stove. The fight was officially over once the fire blasted out of the stove and lots of smoke belched out of it.

--------------

A/N: If you've ever seen The Mask, then you know how that sledge hammer swinging was intended to look.

--------------

The fight now over, the crowd cheered, whistled, and applauded as Go-go took a bow.

Once the crowd finished and quieted down, Calamity stated, "Good show. A shame the meat was destroyed, it would've been a great scientific find."

"You kidding Calamity? I think it was better off dead." Buster stated

"And f-f-for g-g-good this time." Hamton added

"I suppose." Calamity responded, then smiled as he asked Buster and Babs, "So, when do you guys plan to let the other have some space?"

"What?" Buster asked, before he and Babs remembered that they were in an embrace the entire incident

"I don't mind it if Buster doesn't." Babs stated tenderly

"I don't mind it either." Buster added and he and Babs had their foreheads touching

About this time, Plucky had finally finished his extensive explanation and turned around to look at whatever Shirley was trying to point out earlier.

"Can you two just get a room. Sheesh! I'm trying to eat here." Plucky stated as he picked up his burger

"Plucky, like, you don't wanna do that." Shirley stated as her eyes widened along with any other customer in the restaurant

"Chill, Shirl, it's just a sandwich." Plucky stated, just before taking a big bite of his burger.

"I think I'm gonna be sick." Furball stated as he held his stomach, "And that's saying a lot, I eat garbage on a daily basis." and then ran towards the bathroom

"I second that." Babs stated

"Here too." Hamton said as he held a hand up to his mouth.

Plucky was left clueless as he continued to eat his burger as everybody in the restaurant, including the cook, either ran outside or to the bathroom.

Once outside, Go-go followed them to the boat, where the group, mostly hungry, was wondering if the boat was going to have lunch available. Arnold was playing as the person checking tickets as passengers came on board.

Arnold checks the tickets of all the toons except Go-go, and says, "Where are your tickets little strange birdie?"

"Do you see me with a bag? I ain't going on this trip." Go-go stated, "I'm just here to see my friends off."

"We won't take long Go-go, we'll be back to wave bye, after we see our rooms." Buster stated

"Don't take too long, I got to get me some decent chow before I starve."

Once in the halls of the boat, they looked for their rooms. They had been given three rooms for three people each. They decided the best and most fair was that each wrote their names on a piece of paper and threw their names into a hat, and for each room three names would be drawn, except the last room was for the remaining two. They weren't too happy with the results but it was a fair result and they figured it'd be something they could tweak later as the trip goes on.

Room 1: Buster, Calamity, and Fifi

Room 2: Shirley, Furball, and Babs

Room 3: Plucky and Hamton

As they took their perspective keys, they all entered their rooms. The room was very nice, it was wonderfully spacious, well decorated, overall, while it was built for three, it was like a suite, and there was a balcony. Each had one bunk bed and one single normal bed.

Room 1:

"Wow, vhat a wonderful room." Fifi stated

"It is isn't it." Buster stated

"Quite. It's much better than what I'd expect." Calamity rang in as he walked over to the beds

"I joost wish I could've been with 'amton." Fifi stated

"Hey, I wanted to be with Babs, but it was fair and square. So we might as well make the best of it." Buster said as he inspected the closet.

"And we zid decide to change if we want, oui?" Fifi said rather cheerfully

"Yes, but we have to wait some time, we can't all be trading rooms at the moment." Calamity stated, "By the way, who gets what bed?"

"Moi will take zhis bed." Fifi declared as she placed her bag on the normal bed and sat on it.

"How come?" Calamity asked

"Vell, vous two are guys, are you not?" Fifi asked as both guys nodded, "And moi is un girl, guys should sleep on one side while girls sleep on ze ozair."

Buster and Calamity just looked at each other, then Calamity said, "I suppose we have to fight to see who gets the top bunk?"

"No thanks, I'm a rabbit, I prefer something above me when I sleep." Buster stated

"Zhen sleeping place 'as been decided." Fifi stated, "Now let's negotiate who gets ze bathroom in the ze morning first." she added with a smile

Buster and Calamity just groaned, and then the three began to negotiate.

Room 2:

"Well this sucks, I was hoping to be able to spend the vacation with Buster." Babs rang out

"It's only during the night, you'll be able to spend all your waking hours with him." Furball stated

"But still..." Babs whined

"Like, relax Babs, we know you two are a couple. Try thinking of it in a good way, some distance between you two for a short time, even on this trip, could, like, improve your relationship." Shirley stated, "Like they say, 'distance makes the heart grow fonder'."

"Yeah I suppose." Babs stated

"Hey, mind if I get this bed?" Furball stated as he patted the normal bed

"Um....sure." Babs asked with a raised brow

"Like, why do you ask?" Shirley asked

"Because I wanted to check if it was ok, and I kinda didn't want to have a bunk bed anyway." Furball replied

"That's ok, I don't mind a bunk bed, I don't even mind the bottom bunk." Babs stated.

"Then I suppose we have our beds." Shirley stated, "Well might as well, like, check out the view." she added as she walked out onto the balcony

"The view is nice." Babs stated as she joined Shirley.

Furball just spent some time resting on his bed, which he enjoyed greatly. Once Babs and Shirley came back into the room, Furball got off his bed and said, "Think we better go now, the others are probably waiting."

"Yeah, we can't keep them waiting for us." Babs stated

"And, like, not to mention that Go-go is waiting for all of us still to bid bon voyage to." Shirley added

Room 3:

"Nice digs." Plucky stated as he threw his bag on the floor and laid down on a bed.

"The amount of cleaning still leaves much to be desired." Hamton stated as he did that finger-scrap thing on the dresser.

"Relax Hammy, we'll just call someone and get them to do some dusting." Plucky stated

"B-b-but I don't want to be a bother." Hamton stated

"Don't worry, they're paid to do this kind of thing."

"Ok, i-i-if you say so." Hamton stated as he began to unpack his essentials, like soap, toothpaste, and toothbrush.

"I know so." Plucky stated, then looked up to the top bunk bed, "I think I'll take this bed."

"Hmm...You want the top bunk?"

"Sure, I'm part of the bird species, I'm more comfortable at the top."

"Ok...I guess I'll just take the bottom bunk."

"Hey, Hammy mind if I turn on the TV while you do your unpacking?"

"G-g-go ahead."

As Hamton unpacked all his essentials, Plucky watched a movie on the TV. It didn't take long, and soon like the others were heading out to the hall.

"What took you two so long?" Calamity asked

"Hammy had to unpack a few things." Plucky replied

"Come on, the boat is already getting towed out. We have to make it out to the deck before we're too far to see Go-go." Buster replied

All the other agreed and all walked together out to the deck of the ship. They managed to wave bye to Go-go just as planned, but there definitely was a few problems that Go-go had to take just to find space to be seen. In the end he ended up inflating himself and pushing some toons off the dock into the water, which of course ended with Arnold having to chase him away.

The gang laughed nervously at Go-go's little antic, and soon were out to sea. The first thing that the gang did was go to the buffet, where Plucky asked how could they still be hungry. Of course they had to tell him about the little incident at the restaurant, which gave Plucky some sea-sickness for a while as he puked over the side of the ship.

-------------------------------------

A/N: Well the cruise is finally on, and sorry for taking so long to get this done. There has been more than the usual crud that has kept me from finishing this earlier. BTW I organized the toons into rooms same way as they did, their names on paper and drawing them out of a hat. You're free to express your disposition on the room assignments in the reviews, but like I said, their rooming will be tweaked as this goes on. Hope you enjoyed this, and I'll see ya later.
