Chapter Thirteen: “Yellow Rubber and Air”



The group looked over to see why Cyber Tooth screamed, and saw that a giant rhinoceros had his nose spike thingy stuck all the way through her chest and back. “CYBER TOOTH!!!” Grath yelled. “KILL THAT THING!!!” BB said, drawing his big gun. The other creatures in the group with guns also drew theirs, but before anyone could shoot, the rhino exploded into big purple balls that slowly floated up into the air, like the lava bubbles in a lava lamp. “Wha-?” Grath watched them float up. Then they all looked down to Cyber. She was fine. No hole in her, not even the slightest hint of a rhino horn run through. BB spun around to the red lizard and said, “Okay buddy, tell us what’s going on or I blow a hole in you!” He raised his gun to the lizard, who said, “Oh no… I don’t think you’ll shoot.” “Wanna bet?” The lizard smiled. BB said, “You’ve got 5 seconds to start talking. 1… 2… 3… 4… 5…!” He pulled the trigger to his gun. There was a loud noise, and when the smoke quickly cleared, there was a steaming red lizard with a hole in his chest the size of a car wheel. The lizard grinned, “Wow. You actually did it. Oh well.” BB couldn’t figure out why the lizard didn’t fall to the ground dead. The lizard pulled some putty stuff from out of nowhere and filled up the hole in his chest. Then he spun around so fast he was just a blur. When he stopped spinning, the hole was gone. BB was wide eyed. The lizard laughed. Suddenly there was a flash and the group found themselves back at the map where they originally started from before all the confusion. “Wha- uh… ya- guh…. Duh???” Grath said. “Buh… uhhh- nuh zah wha.” BB replied. “Huh???” Cyber remarked. After quite a while the group got control of themselves. “Okay… On to the docking bay.” Grath said. They all went where the map said it was and sure enough, after walking through a large doorway, they were in a large room filled with space ships. “Yes! There’s my weapon! I found it!” Grath said. “Where??? I don’t see it.” Said Hip Chick. “That’s ‘cause, I’m the only one who can. It’s invisible to everyone but me.” “Cool!” Jonman said. “Hey what are you all doing here!?” A turtle guard burst into the room. BB shot at him, but barely missed. The guard took off toward a button on the wall. “Drat! Stop him before he reaches the alarm button!” Grath pulled out his lfg 8,000,000 and shot a heat seeking ice blast. But instead of going for the turtle, it hit BB, freezing him from head to toe. “MMHFFF!!” BB said, his mouth muffled by ice. “Oops…” Grath said. Suddenly a loud noise rang throughout the room. “The alarm!” Jonman yelled. “We’ve gotta hide! There’ll be enemies all over here soon!” “MMHFFF!!” BB said again. “We need to brake BB out of there first!” Cyber said. “MMHFFF!!” BB agreed. “Stand back!” Grath said to them, and taking his lfg 9,000, he shot an acid beam, which melted the ice. BB fell to the ground shivering, “T-th-th-thanks-s a l-lot…” “Sorry ‘bout that.” Grath said. “Come on. We’ve gotta go now!” Jonman said, running toward the guard, who was heading out of the room. Suddenly all the doors of the room flew open, and in ran groups of turtles. “What are we going to do!?!?” Cyber yelled. “THERE THEY ARE!!! GET ‘EM BOYS!!!!” A turtle said. BB reached into his backpack quickly and pulled out a small can. “Hmmm…” He thought. “Not what I wanted, but it’ll do!” He opened the can, and out shot powder stuff that quickly filled the room. “What is that BB!?” Jonman asked. BB smiled, “Each one is a…” Suddenly every particle of the powder dust stuff blew up into an inflatable rubber raft. Some of the guards were pushed back out of the room. Yellow rubber squished everything else. “Each particle of powder was a tiny inflatable raft!” BB said, with his voice muffled by rubber. Everybody struggled to climb to the top of the raft filled room. “They should’ve had one of these cans on the Titanic!” BB said. “Come on! Lets get to the door, if we can find one under all these rafts!” Hip Chick said. The group struggled to get down to the floor of the room to leave through any door available.
