Chapter Twenty-Seven: Movie cont.

The dogs had entered the kitchen through a door flap, trotted over to an open pantry door and stood in the middle of it and descended down an elevator. The descent showed a whole hidden sci-fi styled section of the hotel which astounded the puppets.

"We've lived here for sixty years and we've never come across anything like that." Blade said.

"Of course not, the security system reads on body heat, body weight and visual recognition." Chug said.

The dogs carried the two creatures over to what looked liked a dumpster and dropped them. The creatures then traveled through some tubes, separated and placed into clear canisters and instantly frozen. The canisters were picked up by a large mechanical arm and placed on a shelf next to other canisters with frozen contents. The canisters rotated so that the creatures faced the camera. The camera then moved back to reveal that all the canisters held the same creature and there were twenty long shelves of it.

"Wha-?!" came Jester.

"No way!" claimed Tunneler

"Is this for real?" Six Shooter asked.

"Yes, it's for real. These are just the outer scouts." Kokiri said.

The scene cut to the third creature, peeking around a corner of the kitchen before cautiously walking ahead. The camera panned over its head then from behind where something large scurried past across the camera, catching its attention and aiming its gun in its direction.

The puppets were focused now.

The camera cut close to the creature from behind. The creature started walking backwards slowly and cautiously. Slowly turning around and began to crouch in on itself. A sure sign it was scared.

The camera switched to its feet, watching it step on some white cotton. Sticky white cotton. It squawked in surprise, lifted its foot and tried to shake it off, causing waves of the fabric.

The camera followed one small barely noticeable wave down behind the shelves, along a wall, through a rat hole, down a dark tunnel and finally into a large, dark chamber. The wave led to a large trampoline web, causing it to wobble ever so slightly. The chamber was dark but there was a large darker spot in a corner and the web's vibration reached it.

The dark shadow was a large, hairy tarantula that was sleeping. The vibration woke it, its eyes snapping open (causing Jester to yelp), and leave its chamber.

The creature finally got its foot free of the web and continued through the kitchen at a more confident, if a little annoyed, pace. It was reaching the double doors that led to the dining room of the hotel when another incident happened. It stepped on a hidden switch and then there was a deafening roar. (Jester jumped and tried to hide behind Blade)

The creature looked to its left and there stood the source of the roaring. A large red T-Rex that was slowly moving its head in a circular motion, eyes bright red and was roaring once more.

The creature freaked and ran back down the kitchen away from the doors. But it didn't get very far. Another T-Rex emerged from behind a shelf that held stainless steel mixing bowls and roared at the creature. Its eyes also bright red.

The creature turned away from that one and ran back to the double doors only to be blocked by a huge hairy tarantula rearing up and hissing, its fangs dripping with green venom.

The creature screamed and ran off to its left, trying to get away.

The spider followed after it at a fast scurry, hissing and nearly caught up to it when the creature ran under a tall metal shelf that held some frying pans and other cook ware and the spider crashed into it, jostling the pans, and stuffed itself under it. The shelf started to tip over ever so slightly when the spider got stuck, just out of reach of the creature.

The creature had backed up to a narrow alleyway, too narrow for it to get through and tried to point its gun at the spider. The spider managed to squeeze in some more, but the result was tipping the shelf over completely, causing a loud crash. It also gave the creature a chance to shoot the spider in the face which it did and the spider was incinerated.

"Goliath!" cried Chug.

The creature wasn't safe though. There was still the other T-Rex, which rose its head above a fallen square box and roared. The creature screeched in fright and fired, but the Rex was unbothered and charged forward. The creature fired again and again before realizing that the gun was having no effects of the Rex whatsoever and ran off. Just in time as the Rex crashed head on into the bare wall and falling on its side, giving the creature some time to escape through a vent in the wall.

The T-Rex rolled back on its feet, stood up and went back to its hiding place.

The creature ran through the vents as fast as it could, only slowing down when it knew it was at a safe distance. It looked back to see if anything else was following it. It stopped to catch its breath, lowering the gun and leaning against the wall. Then continued ahead, reaching a broken vent. But it was cautious. It wasn't going to take anymore chances of anything sneaking up on it and threw its gun out in the open.

The coast was clear and it stepped as quietly as it could, picked up its gun and continued walking. It pressed its back against the wall as it reached a corner and peeked around, aiming its gun. . . . Nothing. It cautiously walked around the corner, aiming its gun at the slightest sound. When a large shadow crossed the camera again, it whirled around and aimed at the camera. There was the sound of thrummed hissing and then the gun was snatched away by a string of webs and then a large black scorpion dropped down behind it, pinned it down with its pincers and stung it.

The camera switched to a night stand in the middle of the hallway where its gun was hanging underneath, still being wrapped by four large hairy legs. The demon went limp from the poison coursing through its veins and the scorpion lifted it up to the large spider with its tail. The spider quickly started wrapping the creature before attaching a thick web to it, gently lowering it onto the scorpion's back and descended itself and they walked away with their catch down a vent.

"That's it. Movie's over. Off to bed with you lot, now." Chug said, gathering Torch in his arms and stood up. As soon as he did, he was glomped on by Jester, saying he didn't want to be left alone knowing there were spiders and scorpions on the loose.

"Alright, you can come too. But only if you behave yourself, savvy?" Chug said and yawned a good night to his brother and left the room.
