Epilogue of Lies and Trucks Lie awake in bed at night And think about your life Do you want to be different? Try to let go of the truth The battles of your youth'Cause this is just a game
The creature dodged the attack as easily as it dodged most of the others. Ace did, however, manage to light the curtains on fire and starting the sprinkler system. The creature jumped halfway a crossed the room with some of the gold rope that Slick and Race were still holding hooked on its foot.
The coyote and the roadrunner soon fond out that they were flying through the air.
The monster landed on a table, turned around, and jumped again. This time, aiming for the section of wall in between two windows.
Before Slick and Race could go in that semicircular, the rope finally broke. They landed on the floor and slide before they snacked into the wall they started at.
"Are you okay, Slick?" Race asked as he stood up.
"I think so," Slick said as he did the same, "but I think our dye washed out."
Slick wiped the last bit a brown paint off on his arm to reveal its total black and green coloring.
"Good," Race sighted, "That paint was starting to itch."
It's a beautiful lieIt's a perfect denial
Such a beautiful lie to believe in
So beautiful, beautiful lie makes me
The two jumped slightly as Rev Runner suddenly appeared before them and (for once in that super-fast talker's life) Rev was speechless.
But even if he weren't, he wouldn't have had time to say something because the creature suddenly jumped from its perk on the wall to the floor.
"Loonatics go!" Ace called out.
The older anthros make a circle around the monster that only jumped right over their heads and ran right out the front doors.
"Loonitcs…" but Ace's new orders were drowned out by the panicked cries of the guests who were previously trapped by the monster.
With the monster's exit, the mod had decided to make a run for. Their screaming, crying, and just the fact that everyone seemed to be running in all direction was completely disorientating. Not even Slick could tell were anybody was.
But that was the farthest thing from his mind when somebody grabbed his arm from behind.
It's time to forget about the pastTo wash away what happened last
Hide behind an empty face
'Cause this is just a game
Race spun around and came face to face with a stern looking teenager.
"Puff?!" he called out.
Puff was still holding their arms as the other five kids ran to his side. The sprinkler system continued to pour water down onto the ballroom. All the paint that had been used to disguise the bright colors of their fur was almost completely washed out. The last of the dye that was left would soon be collected into the tiny water droplets that ran off their arms and form colored puddles on the mirror floor."Are you guys okay?" the blond asked the to anthros.
"Yes," Slick replied simply.
"Good, but we need to get outta here, right now," Juice Box said as he glanced around at the chaos.
"We need to get to that employee parking lot," Blade stated, "but I don't think we should use the front door."
"I think there was an emergency exit door in the kitchen," Double D pointed to the double doors that led to the kitchen for enthuses.
"Good, let's go," Blade bolted for the doors with the others on his tail.
"What's in the parking lot?" Juice Box asked Blade as they ran through the kitchen. The exit door (and/or their only hope of escape) was located right next to the large pallets of drinking glasses.
It's a beautiful lieIt's a perfect denial
Such a beautiful lie to believe in
So beautiful, beautiful lie makes me
Lie, beautiful, oh
"Remember that abandoned truck the security guards were talking about?" Blade asked as the kids ran onto the black asphalt of the parking lot.
"There," Spaz pointed to a black 2762 Toyota trunk. It was the only truck in the parking lot so it was a safe bet that that was the one they were looking for.
Juice Box ran to the driver 's side window, "Some one, find me a rock so I can bust the window."
"Juice Box," Double D walked up to him and opened the car door easily.
"Oh…" Juice Box looked at Double D and then at the door.
"Race," Blade addressed the roadrunner, "can you get our back packs in the alley way and bring them back here."
"Sure," and the roadrunner was off.
Blast crawled in the middle of the seats and glanced around, "I don't see any keys."
Everyone's looking at meI'm running 'round in circles
Plagued with a quiet desperation's building higher
I've got to remember this is just a game
"That's okay," Juice Box answered, "Slick can hot-wire it."
"W-What?" the coyote stuttered, "I don't have any automotive experience! I wouldn't even know how I could…"
"C'mon, Slick," Juice Box pleaded, "You're the smartest one here."
The brunette pushed the coyote toward the steering wheel.
"Just give it your best try, Slick," Blast consulted.
So beautiful, beautifulIt's a beautiful lie
So beautiful, beautiful
It's a beautiful lie
Slick gulped and ducked under the steering wheel. He opened the dashboard and started fumbling with the wires. In 3.2 seconds, the car jumped to life and Slick withdrew his head from the compartment.
"Way to do, Slick," Double D congratulated.
"Yeah," Puff chimed, "and nothing exploded, caught on fire, you didn't electrocute yourself, or…."
"Puff," Double D sighted.
"Oh…Sorry."
"I'll volunteer to drive," Juice Box slipped into the driver's seat.
"Juice, you're 13. What do you know about driving?" Blast asked as she sat up on her knees in the middle of the seat and Puff sat down on the passenger's side.
"I've played those racing games."
"This is different from a video game.'
"I know but at least I know my way around a car," Juice Box dripped the steering wheel to prove his point, "This is the steering wheel. That's the brake, that's the accelerator, and that's a rocket launcher."
"That turns on the windshield wipers."
"Well, I got three out of four."
Race appeared with the final three backpacks. He had split the eight backpacks into three trips, hoping to draw less attention than he would if he took them all at once. The roadrunner jumped into the back of the truck and the others followed. With everyone on board, Juice Box started to ease forward out into the parking lot. He then eased onto the street and made a right turn. The truck started gaining speed as they got farther and farther away from the dinning hall.
So beautiful, beautifulIt's a beautiful lie
So beautiful, beautiful
It's a beautiful lie
As they left, two police cars with flashing lights and waling sirens. Ace bust through the front doors and started to give the late arriving cops orders.
"You guys," Ace pointed to one group and then the other, "secure the place and you guys start ta' round up the guests and find out what happened!"
The officers scramble in different directions to follow his orders. Ace turned around and walked back into the ballroom to see that the sprinkler system was still simulating a monsoon.
"Someone turn the damn sprinklers off already!" He barked.
"On it, chief," Tech yelled back. He had he sprinkler system off in 1.5 seconds.
"Hey, Tech," Lexi called to him, "What do you think this is?" She pointed to one of multiple puddles that were swirling with color.
Tech walked over to were she was and, sense he severely doubted that it was hazardous, placed his hand in the puddle and pulled it out to examine the coloring further.
"It looks like," He observed, "a latex based pigment."
"What!?" Danger shouted.
Rev appeared before him, "He-said-that-it's-poster-paint-so-I-guess-it-makes-sense-that-it-washed-out-with-water-and-you-know-what-else-is-weird-I-been-using-my-GPS-for-awhile-but-I-can't-find-any-of-those-kids-Not-the-roadrunner-or-the-coyote-or-that-duck-or-."
"And you know what is really weird," Ace asked to no one in particular, "what were dose' kids doing here in da' first place?"
The six Loonatics looked at each other. This was going to be a very interesting incident.
It's a beautiful lieIt's a perfect denial
