I'ma get the copy right things out of the way first.
Everyone here (except for Jo-Cher and Twilight and the orginal cast) belongs to me!
There now that's out of the way more author's things!
Sorry this chapter took a while, school's been a little rough since it's the start of a new semester.
Anyway, in the last chapter Conor got everyone trapped in a room, what's he going to do o-o
I dunno (yes I do) you got to read to find out =P
Hope you enjoy this new chapter! =D
"Well, we're screwed…" Blurr slumped down and sat with a dull face.
"Well don't you give up easily?" Twilight eyed him as she tried her best not to move.
The snipers watched them carefully and didn't even seem to breathe as they kept their lazers right on them.
Surf couldn't think and hesitated to even blink with the danger of being turned to swiss cheese with one wrong move.
"Aw don't worry Blurr; you and your friendssss are going to be just fine!"
Conor gave a wide smile after he clapped his hands together at the end of the sentence.
Surf wasn't too sure about that.
"Is that right?" Blurr questioned.
"Well … all except for one." He looked at Surf with an even wider smile.
Surf jumped and started crying on the inside as he realized he may not be getting out of this facility alive.
"You're the one I want…" He said in a dark way as he pointed and all the snipers lead their lazers at Surf making him completely red.
"You leave him alone!" Twilight jumped in front of Surf and made herself red.
"That'ssss right… there are sstill you little bratssss that I need to disposssse of." He hissed as he pulled a device out that was covered with buttons and switches.
Blurr seemed worried when he did so.
Treador started growling which caused a reaction of the snipers to point all their lazers at him instead. He started walking back since he knew he didn't have a chance with hundreds of snipers all on him.
"Calm down boysss, he'sss no threat to uss." Despite Conor's reassurance the snipers kept their eyes trained on Treador.
With everyone sedated with fear Conor pulled an antenna out from the button and switch covered box.
"Now it'ss been great and everything but it'ss time to sssay goodbye." Conor had a sly grin on his face as he pressed a blue button on the device.
Twilight, who was in front of Surf, disappeared as there seemed to be three different screams. Surf looked around and found there were holes in the floor of where everyone once stood/sat. Surf looked down in one of them to hear the scream of Twilight's fading away. Then the floor closed off before the scream could go away completely.
All the lazers concentrated on Surf again once he stood in shock.
"What did you do with them?!" Surf shouted.
"Oh, I just let them go, they should be grateful that I did." He still held the device in his hand.
Surf clenched his fist in frustration but soon forgot about his anger when he heard the clicking of reloading ammo coming from all over the room.
"Oh god…" Surf backed up into the door and was thinking about escaping through that when he heard the "Naaaa"s of the angry Lisps on the other side.
"Aww, poor Surf. Trapped in a corner with no hope of being saved." Conor had that sarcastic pity voice as he spoke.
Surf wanted to be brave, he really did, but he just couldn't bring himself to frown in the face of hundreds of snipers.
'What do I do, what do I do?!' Surf panicked in his thoughts trying to think of what to say.
"You won't kill me when you still haven't got that data you want!" Surf quickly said.
"Right… I'll just have them not ssshoot that preciouss head of yoursss." And thus Surf's head was no longer red.
Surf was shaking so much and had his eyes shrink to such a size that it was hard to see them in the blackness of his sclera. Then a spark lit something in his mind. A small "fire" you could say.
'Why am I so scared? I've died before… and it wasn't so bad. I shouldn't be so scared of Death… I'm not scared of Death!" Surf started frowning.
The "fire" inside his mind grew a little bigger.
'That cobra… he kidnapped me and threatened my life and the life of my friends… they could be dead now if he lied about letting them go…'
Surf puffed out his chest and tried to make himself bigger but mainly to let Conor know that he's not afraid anymore.
"What'sss thisss?" Conor was surprised but not worried.
"Would have exsspect you to be in the corner crying your eyesss out knowing how timid you are." Conor said as his tongue flicked.
"Were."
Conor's brows rose.
"Exsscuse me?"
"I'm not that Surf who would be scared of his own shadow and let other people use him as a doormat anymore." Surf glared daggers at the cobra.
Conor slithered back from the mental assault with a worried face and almost fell of his podium.
"I'm a whole new Surf…" He continued.
"I have all thessse ssinperss around you! Aren't you ssscared of dying?!" Conor stated.
"Nope." Surf plainly said.
"All I want… is for you to die." The little "fire" inside had grown into a flaming wild fire.
"And since I'll be more than happy to welcome Death right now…" Surf smirked as his quills started bristling.
"What about your family?! Won't they be devassstated if you end up killing yourself?" Conor was desperate.
"Well how I see it is I have two choices. One, I give up, you kill me and get that data you always wanted and two, I bombard this room and kill myself along with all of you in here" The snipers were sure to hear Surf but they didn't seem worried at all. In fact, they had no emotion to read on their faces what-so-ever.
"Honestly, choice two is less appalling." His quills started bristling again.
Conor looked to be thinking for a minute then he smiled," Well how are you going to cover this room with those quills of yours? That will obviously take too long if you shoot just a couple in each direction and, of course, let me escape."
Surf didn't lose his smile and instead made it wider which made Conor lose his.
Surf did one final giant smirk before he rolled up into a ball; suddenly spikes came from all over him and before anyone could do anything about it Surf made it "rain". Blue quills covered the entire room and of course a lot of them took out most of the snipers. Snipers fell from the ceiling and walls with their bodies penetrated with at least two dozen quills.
There were no screams of pain and no cries for mercy. All of them came down quiet…
Conor was the only one making noise besides the sounds of shooting arrows coming from Surf as the spiky ball.
He was trying to avoid all the quills as he slithered for it. When quills were going to bear down on him he would grabbed one of the few live snipers and use the poor thing as a shield. Then throw him away and continue yelling in fear and attempting to slither to safety. He headed to a door that was on the far side of the room and was so close to it when his long, scaly tail was shot with a quill. The quill went all the way through and pinned his tail to the ground.
He gasped and started pulling it but to no avail.
OUTSIDE
"AAAHHHHHHHHHHHHHHH!"
Twilight, Blurr, and Treador all screamed as they were thrown into the air by holes that opened up in the ground.
They all landed with a thud but none seriously hurt.
They stayed lying down on the ground for a few seconds before they started groaning.
"Oww… where are we?" Twilight looked around groggily as she rubbed her head.
They were in a field with a few trees here and there. The atmosphere was depressing- like and even the clouds were dark, letting only the smallest bit of sunlight through. There were the sounds of waves crashing against a wall not too far away meaning that they were near a cliff.
"I have no idea…" Blurr said as he was on all fours. Despite being on all fours he kept falling onto his side.
"This place looks familiar." Treador said as he studied his surroundings.
He snapped his fingers in remembrance," I was ambushed here!"
"But how did we get here?" Blurr asked. He gave up trying to get his motor skills back and lied on his tummy.
"I don't… know…" Twilight still looked around trying to find an explanation of how they got there.
Winds went over the field and moved the grass in a way that made them look like small green waves.
"We probably got here the same way we left the base." Treador suggested as he stood with little difficulty.
"Naaa…" Twilight still held the Lisp in her arms.
"Can't believe you still have that thing…" Blurr glared at it.
"Shuddap." Twilight glared back.
Then she realized something.
"Where's Surf?"
Everyone started looking around.
"Conor kept him!" Blurr gasped as he jumped up.
"He could be in great danger!" Twilight exclaimed.
"You idiot, did you not see the snipers that were in the room?! He IS in great danger!" Blurr shook her after grabbing her shoulders.
Twilight punched him in the face.
"Don't go on touching me!"
She found Blurr to have half his face gone.
"Yuk plunk ney flyn flawf." He tried to saw with half his mouth gone.
"What?" Twilight said not understanding a word he said.
Blurr pointed his index finger up and started swirling it around as the sand on the ground started rising up. He rebuilt his face before repeating what he said more clearly.
"YOU PUNCHED MY FACE OFF!"
"I KNOW I DID!" Twilight yelled back at him.
"Why am I even still here?" Blurr said as he put his hands up and walked away.
"I could just float off right now." Blurr looked up to the gloomy sky.
"And find your family?" Treador asked.
"My family would never accept me." Blurr looked at Treador at the side of his vision with an annoyed face.
"And why not?" Twilight stepped in.
"Believe it or not I used to be a fox before they kidnapped me and did horrible things." Blurr said sternly.
Twilight was shocked and you could even see a bit of emotion difference in Treador's expression.
A moment of silence followed.
…
"Naaaaaa…" The Lisp broke the silence as it started squirming around in Twilight's arms. It broke free and started "swimming" near the ground. It looked to be looking for something.
"What's it doing?" Treador asked as he watched it.
"I think it's looking for a way into the base." Twilight said.
"Why would it do that?" Blurr asked.
"Maybe it wants to help Surf!" Twilight exclaimed.
Twilight then ran off and started looking for an entrance as well.
Treador looked at Blurr and Blurr looked at Treador.
They shrugged and started helping with the search for an entrance.
BACK INSIDE
Surf stopped his dangerous shower of quills and uncurled.
He sat as he looked around, satisfied with his work.
All the snipers were done for and the few that survived the rain of quills were limping around. One that was nearby had quills in his right eye, left side, and chest, three in his left leg on different sides, and one that went through his right hand. He collapsed after a few limped steps.
Surf failed to notice that no one was bleeding despite all the injuries.
He knew he had little time before the quills will start exploded so he started thinking back to when he first woke up in that lab.
He smiled on all the memories but smiled even wider when Jo-Cher was in them.
'I'm sorry everyone that I have to do this but… it wasn't meant to be." He began thinking of everyone and had pictures pop up in his mind when he named them.
"Mom… Dad… Snowy… Treador… Twilight… Blurr… Class… Little Blue Bird…" He thought both sadly and happily.
"… Jo-Cher…"
He didn't snap out of his thoughts even when he started hearing the explosions beginning. Hundreds and hundreds of explosions, each louder and closer than the last. Surf felt pebbles hitting him but he didn't mind. On the last second he opened his eyes to see the explosions coming at him like a stampede of blazing fire.
"My only regret… never being able to say to Jo-Cher, I'm sorry… I don't care about what you did… Like Twilight said, everyone deserves second chances…"
Just gotta love that saying "Everyone deserves second chances"
And AWWWW Surf being all sorry for Jo-Cher ^w^
Isn't that sweet :D
Yes it is sweet ^w^
Anyway hoped the chapter was enjoyable despite it being a little shorter than usual
Don't forget to review :D
Chao!
