Chapter Ten - Landing... or Falling?
After what seemed forever, I felt a dizzy feeling. We must've been landing. Still clueless to how to get out, I sighed. There's no way to get out. Then suddenly I fell to the side of the wall. "Huh- AH!" I fell to the other wall, then to the ceiling. And I panicked, wondering what was happening as I was flung all around the room.
"Darn it, Dottie do you know how to fly this thing or not!?" Gizzard was holding her forehead with her hand and her other hand gribbed the side of the ship tightly.
"I'm trying, I'm trying. It's not as easy at it looks," Dottie quickled said, and tried steering in a different direction. The boat flung upward, then spun in a circle.
"OK, thats It. I'M DRIVING!" Gizzard pushed Dottie out of the way and the kittens growled. She gulped and then gripped the wheel and turned it in a direction Dottie hadn't tried. The boat slowly floated downward. "See? Not that hard."
Dottie stood up dizzily. "Shut up."
Then, I had an idea. I could tackle the door to break it open. And if timed perfectly, I could fly right past the guards at the door. Perfect! I grinned to myself, and crouched on the side of the wall, waiting for it to tilt again, but instead I fell face first on the floor.
Too late, I thought helplessly.
~(Blah, so many times must I switch views.)~
Banana stood impatiently waiting for the rest of the planes- err boats- err ships(Bleh.) to arrive. Across the room came a pink cat, eager about the news she just heard.
"Well," Banana said, without turning at all. "What did you learn?"
"The cogs were serious about the toon," The pink cat comfirmed. "In fact, it's an old friend of yours."
"Old friend." Banana thought about that for a moment. Then she growled. "No toons are my friend, nor will they ever be. Anyways, you need to wait for the ship, I'm late for a meeting." And with that, the blue cat ran away to leave the pink cat by herself.
~(Still switching)~
"That's great you figured out how to drive the ship," Dottie said with sarcasm. "How are you going to land it, again?"
Gizzard paused. "Oh..." She quickly looked around for a landing button. "How DO they land these things?" She kept looking and then saw a lever. Not thinking, she pulled the lever and a speakerphone appeared.
"Whole ship will explode in ten seconds," A voice spoke out of the speakerphone. Then a beeping noise, beginning the countdown, started. Dottie groaned and Gizzard coughed.
"Your a genius..."
"I know."
