As loud, ear-piercing screams echoed throughout the ship, Ava winced and tears rolled down her cheeks, as she stared towards the door that Ashley was dragged out of.
Wh... why did he do it?" She asked, trying to force the tears back as they stung her eyes. Skipper exchanged a look with Maya, who watched her little sister sympathetically.
"I think he didn't want 你 to get hurt." Maya eventually answered, flinching a little as the screams became louder. Ava sobbed silently, and closed her eyes.
Please be ok... She thought hopefully.
Meanwhile, in the torture room, Ashley squeezed his eyes shut and tried not to scream more, when Tiatra began slowly cutting down his flipper with a knife. He sniffled and held out as long as he could, until he couldn't stop himself from yelping in pain. Hot tears fell from his face and he tried to think about good things.
Ava's fine for now, Emma and Tom aren't here, so they're probably coming to the rescue. He thought, repeating this over and over again in his head, trying to keep his mind off the pain. You've been through worse. He added, trying to slow his breathing down.
In The Park.
Emma stared through the device, and sighed irritably.
"What is it?" Marlene asked, looking at the device.
"This is gonna take forever, how are we supposed to find one spaceship, in this massive park?" Emma replied. "There's lakes, ponds, trees, secret spots, buildings and other things to check, we'll be searching forever!" She added.
"Well we could narrow it down a bit." Marlene suggested. "Invisible 或者 not, it can't be in a crowded part of the park, 或者 people will run into it." She began. "Also, why don't we use those remote control planes to get a good view of the whole park?" She added.
"You genius!" Emma exclaimed, running back towards the zoo, Marlene closely on her heels.
In The Ship.
The lights went out for a 秒 time, and the cage doors opened. Just before their eyes became accustomed to the dark, the lights came back on, and they noticed Ashley in the center of the cage, lying motionless. The chains holding them to the cage bars released and Ava rushed up to him immediately, sitting down beside him, and shaking him gently.
"Ashley! Please wake up!" She pleaded, shaking him more. His eyes opened slowly, and she breathed a sigh of relief. "Thank goodness your ok!" She exclaimed, hugging him tightly. Ashley was took 由 surprise, but he hugged back.
"What did she do to you?" Kowalski asked, his eyes widening.
"Normal torture stuff." Ashley answered, trying to sound unaffected. "But she did tell me what she was going to do to everyone." He added, fear seeping into his voice.
"What did she say?" Skipper asked, sounding a little distant.
"She.... she said, she was going to torture all of the girls to death, and... and...." Ashley trailed off.
"And?" Dustin asked.
"She...... was going to eat all of the boys." Ashley managed, rubbing his shoulder, where a distinct bite mark was.
"S... seriously?" Private stuttered, starting to shake. Ashley nodded gravely, and Private nearly fainted, only to be stopped 由 Rico.
"Hey Rico, why haven't 你 tried to hack something up to get us out of here?" Sky asked sudenly.
"Ican't, othingleft." (I can't, nothing left.) He explained sadly, trying to throw something up, but having no success.
"So what can we do?" Michael wondered, looking around for inspiration. Ashley sat up, and leaned against the cage bars. His eyes fell on Jimmy, and he smiled.
"What is it?" Ava asked, looking at Ashley curiously.
"Jimmy's small enough to fit through the bars." He realised, smiling at the little bug. Ava looked down at her friend who was sitting on her flipper.
"What if something happens to him?" She asked worriedly.
"Lass, he's our only chance until Emma and Tom get here, if something hasn't happened to them." Ashley replied. Ava sighed and she nodded at Jimmy who was watching the two of them curiously.
"Jimmy, can 你 take a look around, and see if 你 can find the button to open the cage?" Ava asked. Jimmy nodded and made a series of clicking sounds. Ava smiled and and turned to the others. "He'll do it." She translated. "Be careful Jimmy." She added, as Jimmy flew though the bars and started to look around.
"I hope he pulls it off..." Kowalski said, as the bug disappeared from sight.
Wh... why did he do it?" She asked, trying to force the tears back as they stung her eyes. Skipper exchanged a look with Maya, who watched her little sister sympathetically.
