Hamtaro breathed deeply as the figure in front of him smiled. "I bet
you, Hamtaro, the hero of everybody on the whole friggin' planet, would
love that. I could just see you now...," he whispered. "But you would
never know the truth that lies in this night."
Hamtaro listened to these words carefully. Hamtaro grinned and remarked, "Why should I be afraid of you, Number 1? I defeated you once, I can defeat you again if I wanted to. And the rest of you Bad Hams, just bite me! I mean, c'mon! Look at this place...all of it really is just darkness. And this isn't even your forest! Now, I wouldn't harm me, because then the Ham-Hams take revenge..."
Number 1 grinned eagerly. "Maybe, maybe not," he responded. "Either way, we're still going to get you this time. There's no turning back now."
"Great, am I going to get slaughtered on Halloween?" Hamtaro shouted loudly.
"Yup," all of the Bad Hams said in unison.
Suddenly all of them heard the sound of running feet and yelling. The Bad Hams slowly looked over their shoulders but couldn't see through the darkness of the night. They heard all of the words, though.
"Oh no, he's gonna kill me!" a girl's voice shouted.
"Come back here, you stupid little kids!" a booming voice demanded. "I command you to!"
"Yea!" another girl's voice yelled at them.
Hamtaro squinted his eyes and tried to see through the darkness, but he didn't need to try to look now because they ran straight through the Bad Hams. Boss ran through the Bad Hams, not even knowing it, while he carried Caitlin in his paws, so Hamtaro grabbed onto him while Mike and Stella stopped abruptly.
"Don't tell me those are the Bad Hams," Boss murmured.
"They are," Hamtaro responded.
Boss cursed under his breath and hid in the nearest bush. There, he, Hamtaro, and Caitlin could just see the outlines of a lot of hamsters. It was sort of freaky by just the way they looked when they turned around...
