The Fierce Ones are characters in Inspector Gadget.
Routine[]
The Fierce Ones were the guardians of the Treasure Cave located in the Atlas Mountains of North Africa near the village of Fuzz until the "Chosen One" appears. It was written that the "Chosen One" would be able to hold fire and water in his hands, would walk so tall that he blocked out the sun and could fly like a bird. Only after this person spent three days and night in the cave, would treasure fall from the sky. If the "Chosen One" failed to fulfill any of these stipulations, the Fierce Ones would tear him to pieces.
Immediately after his arrival in Fuzz, Inspector Gadget inadvertedly proved himself to posess all the aquirements needed to be the "Chosen One". He accidentaly caused a fire with his Gadget Laser, then put it out with his water pistol finger. After this he used his telescoping Gadget Legs to reach up to King Fuzz's balcony, blocking out the sun. After some coersion from Louise Lane, he activated his Gadget 'Copter to fly up onto a nearby roof. All the villagers as well as the Fierce Ones were convinced Gadget was the "Chosen One".
The Fierce Ones escorted Gadget to the treasure cave by horse while Louise Lane followed them in a jeep. Upon their arrival, Gadget attempted to put the emergency break of Lane's jeep on. This caused the jeep to speed off and drive circles around them. One member of the Fierce Ones found himself being chased by the runaway jeep, before it headed right for Gadget and Lane. The Inspector protected her by using his Gadget Legs to jump out of the way, and his Gadget Brella to float safely back to ground. The Fierce Ones were not amused. They grabbed Gadget and carried him to the cave entrance, which was blocked by a large boulder. Gadget was expected to use his laser finger on the boulder, but mistakingly thought it was all just a gimmick to amuse tourists. He began shouting various well known magic phrases. The Fierce Ones quickly grew tired of this. They grabbed Gadget, tied him up and one of them dragged him behind a horse. A pizza cutter emerged from the top of Gadget's hat, which he used as a improvised unicycle after flipping upside down.
Shortly after this, Gadget was tied to a pole with the intention of being burned alive. Gadget's niece Penny, who was hiding nearby, used shockwaves from her computer book to stir up sand into a small whirlwind. This distraction allowed her dog Brain, disguised as an iguana, to quickly untie the Inspector. Then the boulder suddenly flew out of the entrance door. Louise Lane has used dynamite on it. The boulder crushed the pole Gadget had heen tied on to. The Fierce Ones were once again convinced he was the "Chosen One".
The Fierce Ones did not dare to venture into the cave for fear of boobytraps. They remained outside while Lane and Gadget explored the cave. While some of them bowed down in front of the loosened boulder in awe, one of the Fierce Ones positioned himself on top of the mountain cave, startling Penny as she snooped around. This caused her to fall backwards through an opening in the top of the cave. When Gadget exited the cave a short while later, unaware that the "Chosen One" was supposed to remain inside for four full days and nights, the Fierce Ones were outraged and prepared to quarter him. They tied each of his arms and legs to a horse and began to stretch him out, but thanks to his gadget limbs, he was able to withstand the torture. In fact, after a while he pulled each of the four Fierce Ones off their horses and onto the ground.
The Fierce Ones grabbed Gadget by his lapels, but at that moment the treasure begain raining down from the sky as the prophesy had foretold. A crown landed on Gadget's head, and all the Fierce ones dropped to their knees chanting "Wowzers". The downpouring of treasure had been caused by the explosion of a M.A.D. helicopter, in which Louise Lane and two other M.A.D. Agents had attempted to get away with it. The trio of agents survived the explosing using parachuttes, and after landing tried to grab as much of the treasure as they could, only to be caught in the act by one of the Fierce Ones.
The Fierce ones took Gadget, still wearing his new crown, back to Fezzug, where Chief Quimby was waiting for him together with King Fuzz. Gadget told the Chief he had enjoyed the tour, with the exception of the restaurant.
