The fault in Our Swamp (Shrek X Donkey)

Chapter 14: The Battle

The crew rolled up the following morning making their way to Far Far away. They all strutted confidently, but were all in fret. They had a stable team, but Fiona knew martial arts; there was no way they'd win. But they weren't giving up. "Damn, I told you we should've hired a cab!" Donkey yelled. "These train tracks are rusty!" Thomas tooted. "Cram it you guys" Shrek grunted. "Whining won't make us go faster". Donkey's hooves ached And were bruised. He panted, but he knew it would be worth it to see Fiona in pain. "Look!" Puss pointed at a sign. The sign read 'Far Far Away. 50 km ahead!' Donkey's jaw dropped. That would be more than an hour! "Can we pleeeease take a break, Shrek?" Thomas whimpered. "No," Shrek replied sternly. "We need to get there as soon as possible!" They all groaned stubbornly.

Finally, Donkey thought. "Man, am I hungry! Shrek, Do you think we could hit up a cafe? Maybe get some parfait?" "No." Shrek replied. "It's high noon, she'll be here soon." "Fine" So they waited, and waited. Why isn't she here? Donkey internally questioned. Suddenly, a woman came flying through the air and kicked Donkey's face. "Donkey!!" They all shouted in unison as he struggled to stand up. The figure could only be recognisable by her silhouette. It was Fiona. With a band of ragtag hospital janitors, grinning ear to ear. "Well, well, well.." She started. What a cliche villain sentence Donkey thought. "Can't believe you showed up, no balls" she smirked, staring at Shrek. "Since your dad never hugged you, this will be more of a wholesome experience, when you finally feel contact with a real person." Shrek spat at her. "Is that a threat?" The men took their stances, as Fiona pulled out a grenade and threw it in their direction. They jumped only nanoseconds before the grenade detonated. "Remember the plan! Puss, you get the janitors with Barry distracting. Thomas, uh... you can... keep guard??" Shrek yelled. " "OK" They called while splitting up. "Donkeh" Shrek called for the taint donkey. "You're coming with me. We're dealing with Fiona" Donkey took a deep breath and followed.

The duo ran down the alleyway whilst Fiona chased them. "YOUR FATE WILL BE IN MY PALMS" She growled. Shrek pulled out his pistol and aimed it at her, loading the weapon with ammunition. He shot the walls as they ricocheted, soaring toward Fiona. "She dodged them..." Donkey breathed."Dammit" Shrek whispered.

She flew towards Donkey and Shrek. Her eyes were burning in redemption. Shrek threw a grenade, the bomb exploded as Fiona went out of sight. Shrek grabbed Donkey and pulled him behind a nearby dumpster. "Do you think we lost her??" Donkey murmured as Shrek dug through his pocket. What's he doing? Donkey thought, curiously. Shrek suddenly grabbed his hooves. "Donkeh, I don't know how much time we have left before she finds us... but listen. If we manage to get out of here alive-" he pulled out a small box. "- will you be willing to take a chance with me?" He opened the box, revealing an onion ring. Donkey gasped. "I thought you'd never ask!" He jumped into Shrek's arms and let him place the ring upon his hoof. "We should celebrate, but first we must end this once and for all". "Right" said Donkey.

Meanwhile, The others were in a pickle. They were tied up by the janitors. They all slumped as the janitors ran off to Fiona, Shrek and Donkey's direction. Fiona crawled her way down the alley, panting and wheezing. There was blood mixed with sweat around her face. The janitors picked her up and carried her, sprinting in the direction of Donkey and Shrek. "Oh no, she's right down there!" Donkey whimpered, trepidation in his nerves. "We just need to keep running, eventually we'll lose her. This alley has many turns and twists." Shrek coughed. The pair galloped down the path, with Fiona and company on their tail. They though they lost them, but the following event shocked them. It was a dead end. Their eyes drooped as they saw no possible exit. We're doomed Donkey shivered as the janitors caught up. Shrek quickly grabbed Donkey and shoved him under his shirt. "Finally" Fiona cackled. "Now Shrek, why don't we make a deal?" "A deal" Shrek raised an eyebrow. "Yes, a deal. If you give me the swamp, I won't do anything drastic. But, if you refuse, the Donkey's dead." Shrek stopped. The swamp or Donkey? He thought for a moment. "I will never give away my swamp." He whispered. "Well then it's settled. Get that for me!" She yelled at one of the janitors. The Janitor grabbed Donkey from Shrek and then froze. "What?" She squawked. "U-um, the Donkey ain't here" It whimpered. Fiona's face dropped. It was a wooden remake of Donkey. "B- but if he's not here then..." She turned to see the creature with the head cannon. "Say your last prayers, bitch" He chuckled as he shot Fiona. "FUCK YOU SHREKKKKKK" Her last scream of terror as she went in flames. And then, it was finally silent.
