When a Celebration Becomes a Plight - Willy's Wonderland & Paw Patrol Crossover

Chapter 10

Ryder, Liv, and the pups stared at the group that fell into the ball pit. From the looks of it, they weren't injured. Even though the groans they made sounded kind of painful.

"Everybody okay?" One of them asked out loud.

"Yeah." Another one replied. Liv then noticed that the group that fell into the ball pit were her friends. She then walked towards the group in confusion.

"What are you guys doing here?" The girl asked. One of the young men that spotted Liv got up and went towards her.

"Oh my God, Liv, you're alive!" He said in a relieved manner as he stared at her.

"I thought we all agreed you were supposed to stay outside and help us find a way out." She said in confusion. The young man looked back at the others and stammered.

"Yeah, uh..." Ryder and the pups watched as the scene unfolded. Liv started to get frustrated.

"Now how the hell are we supposed to get out of here?" She asked in vexation.

"I tried to keep 'em on the roof, but they wouldn't listen." He protested.

"It was your fault we were on the roof!" One man blurted out.

"It's my fault?" The other man asked.

"It was your fault!" The man argued back. 

Just then, the stage lit up and the animatronics started to sing and dance again. Ryder and the pups jumped and turned while Liv got the group's attention by alerting them about the singing and dancing animatronics.

"Guys, guys, it's happening. It's happening now." She said, trying to get their attention. The group fled from the ball pit. Then Liv locked eyes with the pixie animatronic.

"Oh, that's the nasty bitch who tried to kill me." She said before pulling a box knife out and headed towards the pixie animatronic. 

She was about to stab the animatronic but was stopped by one of her friends. It was the same boy who asked her if she was alright. He grabbed her arm and picked her up and put her down by one of the tables. Liv and her friends were quite furious.

"What are you doing?" The girl asked.

"Hey, what the hell, man?" One guy asked in disbelief.

"Put her down, okay?" Another guy asked sternly.

"I'm trying to help you, you dumbass!" She shouted at him.

"Could someone please tell me what the hell is going on?!" Zuma asked out loud. Liv then faced her friend.

"Seriously? I'm trying to help them understand that they're gonna die in here, but they won't listen to me." She finally said. Ryder and the pups shared glances at each other.

"I'm wanting to know who called backup." Zuma told them. Liv then turned to face the pup.

"I did." She replied bluntly. One of the men in Liv's group took a glance at the stage. He noticed something odd.

"Wait a second," He said as he surveyed the stage. "Wasn't there eight of them?" He asked in a suspicious manner. He then looked across the room to see some of the animatronics in pieces in two trash bags by the front door. He turned to Ryder and the pups.

"Did you do that?" He asked them. The pups gave him a cocky expression.

"We sure did." Chase answered with a confident smile.

"Oh that's badass." He said with a nod. Ryder and the pups turned their attention to Liv.

"I have so many questions to ask you." She said in a sarcastic manner.

"Well, ask away." Chase replied, stepping in front of her.

"How can you talk?" She asked bluntly. Chase looked at the ground for a few seconds.

"Good question. We don't know." He answered as he looked back up at her.

"Come on, pups," Ryder spoke up, now walking away from the group and into the kitchen. "Let's get back to work." He said. The pups followed closely behind and so did Liv's group.

"Didn't me and Skye already clean the kitchen?" Chase whispered to Marshall, who only gave him a confused look. 

What they didn't know was that two people, a boy and a girl, had been left behind and both made their way to the Super Happy Fun Room. In the kitchen, Liv and her friends followed Ryder and the pups to tell them about the history of Willy's Wonderland. The pups listened closely while Ryder tried to find something that needed cleaning.

"I know the bullshit story they told you. That if you clean up the place tonight, they'll pay to have your tires fixed by morning, right? It's a lie." She told them. The pups shivered in fear. Ryder stopped whatever he was doing and turned his head to face her.

"W-what?" He stuttered.

"They said the same to countless others over the last twenty years. They baited you. You're here to be a human sacrifice. You're here to be eaten and killed. Do you understand that?" She asked them, raising her voice.

"Y-you're not making this up?" Ryder asked again.

"I wish I was. This town has a dark history. And it all starts with this horrible place," She explained to them. "You know, Willy's may seem like a happy-go-lucky child's play place, but it's much, much more than that. Willy's was built in 1996, the brainchild of Jerry Robert Willis. If that name sounds familiar to you, it should. Jerry was one of the last century's most sick and sadistic serial killers. Jerry spent most of his time cultivating similar sickos. I mean, they were the most depraved people you could ever imagine. Often, Jerry and his crew would whisk away unsuspecting families to the Super Happy Fun Room. Once inside the families would be treated to a birthday and a private show by Willy Weasel. The shows would always end the same way. After numerous missing persons reports and suspicious smells coming from the inside of Willy's, the law felt like it was time to investigate. Jerry and his gang refused to be taken alive. After the police finally entered the Super Happy Fun Room, they discovered that Jerry and his crew had performed a satanic suicide ritual. Instead of surrendering, the killers decided to take their own lives. Those familiar with satanic rituals speculate that the suicide ritual was some sort of Katra transfer of energy where the memory and consciousness if the living relocate into non-living entities. In this case, the animatronic robots. Ten years later, Willy's reopens with a new owner, Tex Macadoo. He tries to keep the current public unaware of it's horrific past. Things are wrong from the start: There's reports that the animatronic creatures would move on their own. Some would say things they weren't programmed to say. And others would kill and feast on customers. After several ghastly incidents, Willy's closes its doors again. But Tex still doesn't bulldoze it to the ground. Why, you may ask?" She asked them.

"Because Willy got to him," One boy behind her answered, finishing Liv's explanation. "Convinced him to make a deal with the devil."

"Along with all those other backwoods inbreds in this sorry town." Another boy with glasses added. 

Ryder and the pups were paralyzed with fear. They had no clue that Willy's Wonderland was secretly a slaughterhouse for families. Ryder was too scared to do anything, Skye was hanging onto Chase for dear life, Rocky had already known about people going missing in Hayesville, but since he knew the real reason, he was petrified. Marshall, Rubble, and Zuma wanted to ask some questions but couldn't. Until Zuma finally had some courage to speak up.

"Can I ask you something?" He asked in a frightened manner.

"Sure. What is it?" Live asked the pup.

"Awe we gonna die hewe?" The Chocolate Labrador asked, still frightened. The boy beside Liv just scoffed before Liv could speak.

"Bro, you took down two animatronics, you can basically take on Willy!" He reassured the pup. That made Ryder and the pups feel better.

"I'm sorry. What are your names again?" Ryder asked.

"I'm LIv. This is Aaron, that's Chris, and that's Dan." Liv introduced.

"Hey, where's Bob and Kathy?" Chris asked.

"Beats me." Dan replied as he shrugged his shoulders.

"Okay then. Would you might know why thewe is a dwawing of ouw fwiend hewe in the Supew Happy Fun Woom?"
