Chapter Three: “A Bat, A Rabbit, And A Very Big Flyswatter”



Shinyso woke up with a headache from being knocked out. He looked down, and found himself sitting in a chair all tied up. He was in a dimly lit room with no windows, and one door, which was shut. “Oh my head.” He thought. Suddenly the door opened, and in walked a dark gray weasel with a patch over his eye. “Hello.” He said with a rough voice. “My name is Triechy.” “Great. What do you want from me?” Shinyso glared at him. “Tell me where your friends live.” “What friends?” “The ones we saw you walking with. That rabbit and that other… Creature.” “I barely know them, and I only know where one lives. But I won’t tell you.” “Hmm…” The weasel pulled out a gun, and pointed it at Shinyso. “Now will you tell me?” Shinyso looked at the weasel angrily, and then quickly, he tipped the chair back a ways, and kicked the weasel in the face. “Erhg!” The weasel flew back, and landed on the ground, but sprang back up suddenly. Shinyso jumped up, still tied to the chair, and started to kick at the weasel’s feet, but as the weasel jumped, he suddenly kicked him in the face instead. The weasel again, flew back and hit the wall, knocking him out, but as he went to the floor, the gun in his hand shot Shinyso in the leg. Shinyso fell to the ground in pain. “Augh! My leg!” He yelled. He pushed himself across the floor with his good leg, and grabbed a knife from the weasel, in his teeth. With a quick spin of his head, Shinyso threw the knife, from his mouth, to his hands, and cut the ropes. Then he quickly got out his healing potion and fixed his leg. After that, he jumped to his feet, and ran out of the room. He was suddenly met by three robots, who aimed their guns at him. He had none of his weapons. All he had was his training in the second highest of ninja arts. He couldn’t use them against three robots ready to blow his head off though. Too risky. He started getting a little nervous, when there was an explosion and robot pieces flew everywhere. Even he flew back. A little dazed, he looked up and saw Cyber Tooth putting her rocket launcher away. “Here.” She said. “I brought you your things.” She handed him his weapons. “Thanks. How’d you find me?” He asked, taking his stuff. Suddenly, Cyber Tooth started changing. She grew a lot longer, and went to all fours. Her tail stretched out like a snake. She turned into a Cyber Tooth Tiger! “Wha-!?” Shinyso looked at her amazed. “I could smell the trail like this.” Cyber said, as she turned back into her normal form. “Wow…!” The two went back to the city. “You’d better find a new home to live in.” Cyber Tooth said. “Yeah. Maybe even a whole new neighborhood!” Shinyso agreed. As they looked for a new place to live, they saw some more robots coming. “Get down!” Cyber pulled Shinyso behind some bushes. “Why? We can take ‘em on! There’s only about six of them. Plus, that gun of yours took out all three of those robots in that building. I mean, this is simple!” “No, this is not that simple. See those robots? They’re red. The ones I destroyed were black.” “So?” “So, the red ones are far more dangerous. They’ve got energy shields that surround them, and their weapons are WAY more deadly!” “Who cares? I still think we can fight them.” “No.” “Come on!” “No!” “Come on! Don’t be a coward.” If you wanna fight them, then go ahead. But I’m not going to.” “Fine then. Just watch.” Shinyso readied himself for a surprise attack on the robots, who by now, were not far away. When they got closer, Shinyso sprang from the bushed and drew his sword. It was a high jump, and as he came down, he slashed hard at the robots. But before his sword reached them, there was a glowing shield blocking his sword. The robots turned to face him, and one said, “Kill this enemy!” Suddenly Shinyso found himself trying to dodge a wall of blasts that the robots were shooting at him. He had to move quickly to not get hit. Cyber figured she’d better do something, so she took out her two guns and shot them both. The robots were engulfed in flames from her flamethrower; just before the rocket from her rocket launcher hit them. Then they were knocked backwards into a building. “Kill them both!” A robot said as they all got up and started shooting at the two rabbits. None of the robots were hurt at all. They walked into the street, still firing their guns. The two dodging rabbits, heard something coming. It was a car! “I’ve never seen a car that runs in this city before!” Cyber thought. As the car came into view from around a corner, they saw that it was a small racecar, which was being driven by a camouflage rabbit. It came directly at the robots, and smashed into them quite hard. They went skidding, rolling, and bumping down the street. The car spun into a stop and the rabbit jumped out, drawing his gun. The robots were hurt this time. They got up and started shooting some more, but they were all scratched up and broken. A couple of them had lost their arms. As the small street fight continued, something was flying above. It was a bat. A bat with an orange backpack. The bat reached into it’s backpack and pulled out a flyswatter which was about the size of a large tree. “Whoops! That’s not my Ultra Anti-Robot Spray Gun!” He said to himself. “Oh well. It’ll do.” He raised the swatter into the air, and then brought it down hard on the robots. Then he shoved it back into his backpack. The robots were splattered all over the street. Wires, metal, sparks, screws, the whole works, flattened all over. The bat flew down and landed. The creatures all walked over to the robots. “Wow……. I think you got them.” Shinyso said, looking at the mess on the road. “Yeah.” Cyber agreed. “Who are you two anyways?” “I’m Grath Foeslayer.” The rabbit with the car said. “I’m Batty Buddy. My friends call me Batty Buddy. I call myself Batty Buddy. But, you can call me Batty Buddy.” “Oh… I see. Is there anything a little shorter we can call you?” “Hmmm… Well, I guess you can call me BB, or Batty, or Batty B., or B. Batty, or Bat, or-…” “Okay okay.” Cyber said, a little annoyed. Another creature came walking up. It was Claw. He said, “Hey, is everybody okay? I heard a lot of noise!” “Yeah.” Cyber said. “This bat just killed these robots with the help of this rabbit, who owns that really nice car over there.” “I see.” Claw said, looking at the used-to-be-robots all over the road. “This is Batty Buddy, and this is Grath Foeslayer.” Cyber Tooth introduced the two creatures. “Guys, this is Claw.” “Hi.” They said. “Hey.” Claw replied……
