A.N.- Okay, this cliffhanger's a bit rough too, maybe.

Trixy: You're telling me!

Private: Yeah! BML, you weren't even there!

Me: I know, but you two did give me quite the vivid account to tell the story off of. :D

Trixy & Private: X(

Me: LOL

Everyone: Enjoy!

Chapter 7: Go!

(Nobody's POV)

Dr. Komodo wheels the laser to in front of Private's cage. He then aims. "Alright, Sarah, would you like the first shot?" the lizard says stepping away from the laser. Sarah smiles evilly.

"It would be a pleasure, sir." Trixy uses this moment to pull Sarah's knife out of its sheath on the vixen's side. Sarah spins around. "Hey, give me that back!"

"No way, José. This knife is mine." Trixy replies unlocking her cage with the knife. She then drops the knife and launches herself out of her cage and onto Dr. Komodo's back.

"Get off of me!" The scientist says swatting at her. She puts her flippers over his eyes and he trips over his laser moving its aim.

"That a girl, Trixy." Private cheers. Suddenly he hears a sawing sound and he looks towards it. Skipper, Rico, and Kowalski waddle into the room. "Skippah!" Trixy looks up at hearing the skipper's name. Dr. Komodo takes this moment to dislodge Trixy from his back. He then throws her into the wall next to him.

"Oof!" Trixy exclaims as she hits the wall. She slides down the wall; unconscious.

"Now, prepare to die, Tux!" Komodo says. Sarah runs over to the laser to re-aim it.

"Not on my watch, reptile! Rico, operation 63, stat!" Skipper says; Rico salutes and tackles the vixen. Sarah had already triggered the laser and it shot at Private's cage; but because it had yet to be re-aimed, it missed and cut the cage open. Private hops out of the cage and runs after Komodo.

"Skippah, get Trixy out of here! I'll go get Komodo!" Private says. Rico and Kowalski had already rounded and tied up Butch and Connor. Skipper nods and goes over to the injured penguinett. Private slides after Komodo and tackles him. Trixy wakes up from her collision with the wall.

"Come on, Trixy, we have to go!" Skipper says.

"No. I won't leave Private. I won't go." Trixy stubbornly replies. Private hears her.

"Trixy, go with Skipper!" Private says while dodging a blow from Dr. Komodo.

"No!" Komodo catches Private's side with a claw.

"Darn it, Trixy! For once do what I tell you! Go with Skipper!" This stunned Trixy; Private had never talked to her in that way before. Skipper used this moment to pick Trixy up unceremoniously and run out of the building. Private and Komodo continue to fight.

(Trixy's POV)

Skipper carried me out of the secret lair and when we were a safe distance from the zoo he put me carefully on the ground. Immediately I stand up and go to go back after Private. Rico stands in my way. "Nuh uh. You stay 'ere." Rico says. I sit back down and Kowalski looks at my ankle.

"Shouldn't we go back aftah Private?" I ask worriedly. Skipper shakes his head.

"Private's a capable boy and an excellent soldier, he'll be out here in a moment. Trust me. You have nothing to worry about." Skipper says and I nod. Suddenly we see an explosion.

"*Gasp* PRIVATE!" I scream and I push past Kowalski and Rico.

(Private's POV)

Komodo and I continue to grapple around for a few more minutes before the villainous reptile starts to fight un-fairly. He rams me into a wall and scratches me with his long, sharp claws and steps away. "This is the end, Tux; your end. I have an escape plan. You don't." Komodo says walking away. He then starts up the self-destruct. "Good luck trying to escape this death." Komodo then dashes away. I stand up shakily and look for an escape. My eyes fall on the opening Skipper and the others had made to come in.

"I'll escape through there." I slide through the opening and had just gotten outside when the lair under me exploded; I fly through the air and land on my face a couple meters away. "Oof!"
