Secrets of the Pizzaplex

Chapter 31

🐶Bruno🐶

I was still looking at the charging station. Why had this charging station just glowed so eerily purple?

My ears twitched. The beeping of the endoskeletons became louder and louder.

"Bruno, come on, we have to get out of here!" said Freddy again and nudged me roughly. Roxy's beautiful yellow eyes looked at me with concern.

Suddenly one of these gray skeletons entered the hallway where me, Roxy and Freddy were. The skeleton narrowed its bright red eyes and then beeping menacingly at the three of us.

I looked away from the charging station and looked at the endoskeleton, which was beeping and getting ready to attack. Roxy was standing very close to me, her ears flattened in fear. Freddy's eyes widened.

When the skeleton wanted to attack, I jumped at it, teeth bared, and pushed it into the middle of a pile of rubble. The skeleton twitched while sparks sprayed from the right side of its face. Then another endoskeleton came running into the hallway toward us, beeping viciously.

I flattened my ears and growled at the skeleton then turned to my both friends. "Freddy! Roxy! Go, you two! Run out of the old pizzeria ruins and make sure the other endoskeletons don't spot you two and make sure don't wake up the monster. Now run!" said I to the bear and the female wolf and then turned back to the endoskeleton which started circling me.

"Bruno! No! The skeleton will destroy you! It will destroy you!" whimpered Roxy with tears in her eyes and wanted to run to me but Freddy grabbed her arm and dragged her down the hallway behind him. The bear let his ears droop.

"Don't worry my pretty Roxy, the endoskeleton is far too stupid to attack. I'll defeat it." said I. Roxy sniffled, her ears drooping.

The skeleton was still circling me, beeping. I turned a few times slowly so as not to lose sight of the skeleton. "How long are you going to keep circling me, you old rattling skeleton? I bet you won't catch me." said I scornfully to the skeleton and grinned.

The skeleton then stopped circling me, narrowed its red eyes and wanted to pounce on me, beeping but I immediately dodged to the side so that the skeleton jumped against the wall and shock its head in a daze.

"Why are you jumping against the wall, you stupid?" said I scornfully, twitching both of my ears. "Well, maybe it's a good thing if you jump against the wall, then some of the cables in your empty head will connect with each other and make you a little smarter."

The skeleton beeped loudly and angrily. I saw a few small stones coming loose at the top of the wall.

"Well, try to catch me, you stupid." said I to the skeleton. The endoskeleton started to jump. I stumbled as I tried to avoid the attack and was startled when the skeleton jumped onto my back and started scratching me wildly. I felt it trying to rip off my left ear.

"Stop it! Stop it!" said I and whimpering loudly.

I fought doggedly and tried to shake the skeleton off me. I began to turn in circles, growling, and managed to push the endoskeleton firmly against the wall. The skeleton flailed its arms and beeped in anger.

Suddenly an avalanche of stones released from the top of the wall. Me and the endoskeleton looked up with wide eyes to the top of the wall. I backed away. The skeleton was buried under the stones and let out a short pitiful beep.

"Endoskeletons are really stupid. Even a small child could easily defeat these skeletons." said I and shook myself briefly to get rid of the dirt and dust that was on my body. "But...when these skeletons attack in groups, it's difficult to fight them."
