Chapter Four: OPERATION: Junk Yard

"A super-sized washing machine?" Everyone repeated after Kenny.

"Yes! That's it exactly!" Kenny jumped up in down.

"What a load of crap…" Tyson said flatly.

"Tyson!" Kenny whined. "It's the only way! Dizzi said so herself!"

"Yeah, what he said…" The laptop spoke up from a nearby table.

"How would we build a super-sized washing machine?" Rei raised an eyebrow.

"I could build it from parts in a junk yard." Kenny suggested.

Someone tapped Tyson on the shoulder. "What do you want now, Max?" Tyson didn't turn around.

"Um… Tyson…" Rei was standing in front of Tyson but started backing away from Tyson slowly.

They tugged on Tyson's arm hard. "What Max?!" Tyson asked louder.

"T-Tyson… I'm next to Rei…" Max piped up.

The color faded from Tyson's face and he turned around to see the dirty clothes inching closer to him stealthily. 

"RUN!!!" Tyson screamed and jumped out a window. Rei, Max, and Kenny had started running a long time ago. But no one remembered poor Dizzi.

"HELP ME! AHHHHHHHHHHHHHH!!!!!!" Dizzi screamed as the clothes attacked the laptop and it caught fire. Nearby clothes had been set on fire and they did the old stop, drop, and roll.

"Dizzi!" Kenny yelled to his dead laptop and for all we know maybe his girlfriend too.

"We have to get to the junk yard!" Rei grabbed Kenny's collar and dragged him while still running in the direction of the town's junkyard.

While the four of them were running down the street, they saw that on a connecting street Kai was running towards them being pursued by his own dirty clothes groupies. Tyson skidded to a halt.

"I told you!" Tyson bellowed happily.

"Shut up, Tyson! Or I'll feed you to this monsters!" Kai yelled back angrily.

Gulping, Tyson darted after the others so as not to fall behind and be engulfed with the demonic clothes. Kai easily ran ahead of Tyson. The gate to the junkyard was ahead but the clothes were gaining on them! One thing's for sure; they will all be a great deal thinner when this is over with.

Kai kicked the gate open and everyone jogged inside, Tyson coming last. Rei and Kai slammed the gate shut and there was a loud bang as the wave of dirty laundry crashed into the shut gate. They barricaded the door so it would stay shut longer.

"What now, Kenny?" Rei asked, out of breath.

"It'll take longer to build without Dizzi's help." Kenny explained sadly. "But I can do it. I just need you guys to hold them off until then."

"We can handle that, right guys?" Max asked everyone, smiling.

"Yeah!" Tyson punched the air.

"Whatever…" Kai folded his arms and shut his eyes in concentration.

"Sure." Rei panted.
