Chapter 13: Brago vs The Geese and Squirrels.
"Now, everyone. This room is known as the special room/nut room. It contains all the great goodies for special occasions of the year, and is where we have our nuts opened as well. Shall we check it out?" Willy Wonka said, showing Brago, Sherry, Tia, and Megumi a large rainbow colored door.
"I rather not." Brago said as he was about to leave, but Sherry grabbed hold of the back of his cape, which almost choked the dark mamodo.
"What the hell was that for?" he snapped at the blond.
"You're staying Brago and that's that. And don't give me any of 'I want to leave now', cause I'm tired of your belly-aching and whatnot." Sherry responded calmly, but angrily.
"That's because I don't want to be hear." Brago said, beginning to get angry.
"Okay, before this gets out of hand, lets go in, shall we?" Wonka quickly opened the door and everyone followed him in. While no one was looking, Zatch and Kiyo quickly caught up without them noticing they were gone for awhile.
Inside the special room/nut room, was all kinds of decorations for all holidays of the year; valentines day, St. Patrick's day, Easter, Halloween, Christmas, etc. on one side of the large room was a couple of giant geese sitting in large nests. On the other side, was a bunch of little squirrels opening walnuts. In the middle of the room, was a large hole.
"So this what the special room/nut room looks like, eh?" Megumi asked and Willy nodded.
"Yes, those over there are the giant geese who lay the golden eggs. Right now, they're savoring up for Easter." Willy announced as he pointed his cane at the giant birds, as one or two of them made a squawk.
"But Easter's over!" Tia called out, followed by Willy's hand slapping itself on Tia's mouth.
"They don't know that. I'm trying to get them ahead for next year. And like I said before, little girl. Stop your babbling."
"I thought you called it mumbling." Tia mumbled from behind Willy's hand.
"I know. But now it's babbling, so stop." Wonka said in Tia's ear as he released his hand from her mouth.
"And those are squirrels, but not any kind of squirrels; these squirrels are specially trained to opening a whole walnut. As you see, the geese lay large golden eggs. Once the geese and squirrels get good nuts and goo eggs, they're shipped out to all over the world. But if they get bad eggs and bad nuts, they go down that big hole in the middle of floor." Willy Wonka happily explained everything. Everyone seemed surprised, except of course, Brago.
"It's a bunch of bull crap." Brago said, which gotten Wonka's full attention. The candy maker walked over to the dark mamodo and whispered in his ear.
"A little bull crap, now and then, only come from the wisest or man. And you're really weird." Willy said with a grin on his face. Brago just stared at him with a blank look on his face. Did he clearly insulted him?
"That tears it, I'm leaving." Brago announced and began walking to the door to leave.
"Where in the world do you think you're going?" Sherry snapped all a sudden.
"I clearly getting out of this dump." the dark mamodo responded.
"No you're not, Brago." Sherry grabbed Brago's wrist when the dark mamodo was about to push the door open. This clearly isn't their day.
"Yes I am, Sherry."
"We're suppose to enjoy our time hear, but instead, you always complain about leaving. What is your problem, Brago?" the blond snapped at the mamodo in front of her.
"My problem is that we agreed to leave if I have a bad feeling! And I've been having a bad feeling ever since what has happened to those other two mamodos! And I'm not going to stick around for something bad to happen to me! So I'm getting out of this place whether you like it or not!" the dark mamodo snapped back.
"Dammit, Brago!" Sherry yelled as she shoved Brago to the ground. "Can't you get through a single minute without complaining? I'm fed up with your belly-aching, and I'm fed up with you! The next time you're in a scrap, I won't be there to save your hide!"
Those words made Brago extremely angry. How dare she say that to him. Brago got back, with his crimson red eyes locked onto the blond's sapphire blue eyes.
"You just don't get it," Brago hissed. "It's not just me who'll might end up in an accident. After what happen to those other two mamodos, I'm also concern about your safety, and I don't want anything bad to happen to you either."
But then a bad nut was tossed through the air and it hit Brago in the back of the head. He turned his head around to see the squirrels, with his neck making cracking noises in the process. He was now pissed off beyond his limit.
"You!" he shouted as he pointed an accusing finger at the squirrels, who all turned to look at the dark mamodo. "You rodents all have now officially pissed me off beyond my limit! NOW SUFFER MY WRATH!"
Brago leaped over the railing and charged mercilessly at the rodents, who also charged at him like an army charging at an enemy army. The dark mamodo and squirrels clashed, and were fighting like crazy. It draw the attention of the giant geese. They all flew off and joined their rodent comrades in battle against Brago.
"I'LL TAKE YOU ALL ON!"
Brago punched the beak of one goose as he literally swallowed one of the squirrels whole. Another squirrel was biting on his hair, but he yanked it off and kicked it, following by snapping the neck of another crazy goose. All the squirrels were doing were jumping all over Brago while the geese were trying to bite him.
Back on the railing, Zatch looked to his left to see Zofis, who appeared from nowhere, and he was sipping a large cup of soda while biting on a Wonka bar, which happens to be both fudge and yellow tail flavor. Zatch began to mouth water as he stared at the candy bar in the psychic mamodo's hand.
"What?" Zofis said as he eyed the king of the mamodo world.
"Are you gonna finish that?" Zatch responded while he was reaching to take the candy bar.
"Get your own!" said Zofis, with his mouth filled with fudge goodness, as he was keep Zatch away from his candy bar.
Back with Brago, he kept punching, kicking, and hitting the birds and rodents, but there were too many of them. He turned to see that he was right next to the big hole in the floor. Before he coudl react, he tripped over another one of the rodents, and fell into the hole. Well, almost.
He was clinging to the side with his claws, looking up at everyone else on the railing. "Sherry." he said, but the blond just stood there, looking at him with a shocked look on her face. His claws gave away, and so Brago fell down the deep dark hole, followed by a loud CRASH sound.
"Brago." Sherry muttered under her breath.
"I'm also concern about your safety, and I don't want anything bad to happen to you either."
The last thing he said to her kept replaying in her thoughts. Willy saw the expression on her face.
"Where does that hole lead to?" she asked horrified.
"That hole leads to the garbage bunker right underneath the factory." Willy answered.
"And... where does that lead to?"
"To the incinerator."
"The incinerator? He'll-he'll be burn to death."
"Now, he may be stuck in the hole just below the top, and if that's the case, all you have to do is reach in and pull him out." Willy answered while getting out a key from his pocket and opening the rail gate. Sherry gulped before she began walking down the stairs.
But then mamodo kids came in from nowhere and music began playing in the background again.
The mamodo kids began to dance weird as they sang. "Oh Brago, the little brute, has just gone down the garbage chute. He will meet as he descends, a rather different set of friends. A rather different set of friends, a rather different set of friends,"
"An alligator for example cut this afternoon from who knows what," a mamodo kid tossed in a dead alligator down the large hole. "A clam from a clam stew, and a piece of gum that no one will chew. And lots of other things as well, who come with own horrid smell. Horrid smell." the kids continued to toss all kinds of garbage into the hole.
"These are Bargo's new found friends, that he will meet as he descends. These are Brago's new found friends!" the kids danced around in more weird kinda way. Sherry slowly approached the large hole.
But then a squirrel charged at her from behind and kicked her in the rear, which made her scream as she fell into hole as well.
"Uh, Zatch?" Kiyo spoke to his friend. The blond child was still fighting Zofis over the candy bar, and eventually Zatch won.
"You stupid kid! King or not, if Koko was here with me, I'd fried you into a pile of ash!" Zofis shouted at Zatch anime style.
"But I thought me and Brago had already kicked your sorry ass in the battle." said Zatch, all confused.
"Oh, Zophie-"
"WHAT, WONKA!"
"I want you to shut down the incinerator so my guess wouldn't be sizzled like sausages." Wonka said to the psychic mamodo.
"Forget it, Wonka!"
"Then I guess you wouldn't get that one way trip to meet your so called 'Koko' again."
"NO! Alright, I'll do it, but only for Koko, the love of my life." Zofis said as he clapped his hands together and made a gooey ga-ga love look on his face, which freaked Zatch, Kiyo, Tia, and Megumi out.
"Mr. Wonka? Brago and Sherry wouldn't really be burned, would they?" Zatch asked the candy maker.
"Hm. Well I think the incinerator is light up about every other day, so they have a good porting chance."
