Chapter 443

"I recognize that scream!" Dogday and Catnap spoke simultaneously before they both looked at each other a bit surprised. "Umm... that's good, but I think we should try to get down there first" said Poppy, she looked at the Dogday prototype but all it did was shake its head and walk away with Rich still in his arms. Poppy sighed "I wish we had more backup options" she mumbled but upon hearing the scream again Dogday and Catnap wasted no time, they both ended up jumping down the large hole and Poppy screamed "NO!" as she watched them disappear in the dark shadows below. Poppy was panicking "Dogday Catnap! Come back!" she screamed but she couldn't even hear them or if they even made it to the ground.

Catnap and Dogday were free falling for a while, but eventually Catnap unsheathed his claws and grabbed Dogday's paw before he dug his claws into the side of the wall to keep themselves at a slower descent. Both had expressions that were clear warnings not to mess with them when they felt this protective over their friend's safety. They both didn't know what to expect when they hit the ground but they both were ready to face it, together. "Do you see a bottom yet?" Catnap asked as Dogday simple shook his head and said "not yet but it can't be that far can it?" as Dogday asked this Catnap felt a bit nervous about this, both were unprepared for what was down here, but they both heard the familiar scream of Kickin Chicken. "I see the bottom" spoke Dogday in the darkness, Catnap looked down and indeed saw the bottom as well. He took a deep breath and sheathed his claws as the two lands on the ground with a soft thud. "Be quiet and stay close, we don't know what's lurking down here" Dogday said as Catnap nods and they start to walk side by side to find out where their friends were, and why Kickin had screamed.

The CEO was at his desk looking at Avery with a very annoyed expression as she tried to explain why it was best to call an ambulance and the cops. "Nonsense Avery, that creature wasn't a threat, it was merely a mascot" the CEO waved the girl off. "Yes but you and I both saw what it did to you, I mean look at your desk, that wasn't normal for any human to do with strength like that" Avery made a good point but Elliot wasn't going to back down. "Avery look, forget about it... I've been through worse, I'll be fine" as Elliot worked to get Avery to understand he was fine though Avery was about to speak as the doors slammed open and Huggy Wuggy's old suit was brought in. "Ah it's about time" said Elliot as he stood up as if nothing happened, yet his back was killing him. "Bring it in boys, Avery will be delighted to see what I have in stores for the future of Playtime Co." with that the scientists brought the empty suit inside and laid it on the floor. "Now the real fun can begin" the CEO said smirking at Avery.
