Chapter Ten: Raptors In The Kitchen

The door opened slowly, and two Velociraptors walked in, snarling.

Squid prayed that the raptors would leave him alone, but it was very unlikely. He could hear the tip-tap of the raptors ferocious toe claws softly hitting the ground every step they took. They were slowly nearing the counter in Squid was behind. He quickly and quietly crawled across the tiled floor, away from the raptors, who were advancing away from the door, and to the wall.

Clipy and James cringed when they heard the sound of opening cupboards. Squid looked to his right, around the corner, and could see the Velociraptors opening the cupboards and drawers with mouths and claws.

"Pleasespareme pleasespareme pleasespareme." Clipy whispered.

The raptors growled and snarled as they clawed each individual cabinet open. They were getting dangerously close to James and Clipy's cupboards.

Squid knew he had to do something. After grabbing a spatula, he began tapping the metal counter, making a big racket. The Velociraptors, just before the opened Clipy's cupboard, turned their attention to the noise. They hissed before running over.

Squid knew he would die unless he got out of there, so he quickly crawled across the floor and hid behind another counter, which just happened to be next to Ash's pantry.

The raptors were slowly making their way towards Squid's new hiding place, which was a problem.

Oh poo. Squid thought as a Velociraptor slowly poked its head above the counter.

After a few sniffs, it retrieved its head and went to search someplace else.

"Squid," Ash's voice came from the pantry in front of him. "Look."

Across the counters, at the other side of the room, they could see the helmet of a very frightened purple knight, poking out of the cupboard. In the time he climbed out of the cupboard, he made sure the raptors were looking the opposite way. Once he was completely out, he bolted down to the door, opened it, and was out.

The raptors turned their heads too late, and James was gone.

Squid did a "Lyke rlly?" face, and knew they had to do this on their own.

"Squid," Ash said once again. "Look."

This time, Clipy was doing the same thing, but faster and clumsier. Obviously, that got the raptors attention.

"Crap."

He ran down towards the door, but tripped. Thankfully, one of the chasing raptors tripped on him, and face-planted into the metal floor. Clipy crawled along the opposite direction he wanted to go in, and turned around to see the two raptors tripping over each other.

By the time the raptors had stood up, Clipy was gone, and had hid behind the end of a counter. But as he put his back against the small wall, not only did it make a very loud bang, but he also knocked down a collection of very loud spatulas and such.

The raptors turned their heads in the direction of the sound and slowly began walking towards it.

Squid had to help the poor pilot. He stood up and jumped over the counter, landing onto one of the raptors. He ended up slamming the raptors head into the counter, giving it a very bad headache. The other raptor turned around swiftly, noticed Squid, went completely mental, and pounced.

Squid saw the raptor above his head and began pulling his sword out of its sheath. He got it out just in time, swung at the raptor, and missed by a mile. Thankfully, the sword flying across the room was enough to distract the raptor, giving Squid the opportunity he was looking for to escape. He ran down towards - what he thought was - the door out. It was, in fact, actually the freezer door.

He limped his way towards the door, which confused him. He then realized he had a big scratch across his tentacle, but decided to ignore it. He turned around, and got the hint that the raptors had noticed him.

They were running at a very fast speed. Or maybe it only seemed fast because he was going so slow. He wasn't thinking about this at the moment though. What he was thinking about was whether or not he was going to survive the next few seconds. He opened the door, immediately slipped on the ice that covered the freezer floor, fell over, and slid out of the way just in time, for the raptor that was chasing him came charging through half a second later and also slipped on the ice. It slid all the way to the end of the freezer and crashed into the food shelves.

Squid got to his feet - er, tentacles, and tried not to slip as he ran out of the room. He then turned around and attempted to close the door as the raptor came flying towards the exit. He managed to close it in, and locked the door. He took a deep breath and sat down in the middle of the floor, closing his eyes. He jumped as he felt something touch his shoulders, but was relived to find out it was only Clipy.

They stood up, and came face-to-face with the second Velociraptor, which decided it wasn't worth it, that he would rather hunt some squirrels, and retreated for the door.

They did it.

The gang recuperated themselves with a few ice-cream floats (specifically chocolate), and a handful of French-fries.

"Welp," Ash said with a mouthful of ice-cream. "I guess we should try to find the others next."

They all nodded in agreement. As they were packing up their stuff, Clipy noticed something on a counter. It was a flyer, for the restaurant they were in. A look of horror spread across Clipy's face as he read the restaurant name, and saw the picture on the paper. He showed the flyer to he others. It featured a picture of an animatronic bear of sorts, and this is what the flyer read:

"Come dine with Freddy Fazzbear at the famous restaurant, Freddy's!"

The phone began to ring.
