Smiling Critters continues on...

Chapter 447

The lynx kept their static to a minimum, but soon got louder as the tall figures started to move. Catnap was in shock, the tall figures looked to be smaller versions of the Prototype himself. 'It's like he experimented on his own design before actually committing to it' Catnap thought with wide eyes, Dogday had quickly ducked his and Catnap's head down as one of the prototype's copies came over to inspect the area. The lynx did look familiar to Catnap though as he recalled the room where all the mascots were hung from the meat hooks. He shivered a bit, but felt his paw being squeezed. He looked over at Dogday who seemed to have noticed Catnap's fearful expression. Just as things seemed like they calmed down, and it was silent once again one of the machines grabbed Catnap's long purple tail causing the cat to yowl in pain. Dogday was silent as he watched Catnap get hoisted into the air and dangled there as the lynx came over to inspect the feline. The lynx's eyes seemed to have been clawed further open then what was supposed to be, it had the bright white irises as well, a part of the lynx's jaw also seemed to be wired shut with barbed wire, and it had an eerie smile, but it seemed it was a forced one, it reached around its face a bit too much for Catnap's comfort. The lynx looked at Catnap for a second before turning towards the crate and wandering closer, but just as its paw had made its way into Dogday vision he jumped out and pounced on the unsuspecting mascot. Both of them had a brawl on the ground until Dogday noticed the tall prototype creatures running over to stop it, but Dogday wasn't going down without a fight so he leapt up on the crate and used his hind legs to push himself and bound himself up to a broken piece of a ladder, his grip never wavering once he managed to climb the ladder up to a safe point but the machines were still after him. Dogday looked towards Catnap and noticed the pleading look the cat was giving him, and he knew he had to make a decision. Escape or be captured.

Mommy Longlegs and Poppy both came down and immediately took in their surroundings. "This place looks awful..." Poppy spoke in a whisper "how can you even see?" Mommy spoke but then went over to a lever. "Do you think this may be the light?" Mommy asked but Poppy wasn't sure if it was safe to really go touching everything down here. "Probably not safe, we should find The Smiling Critters and keep moving" Poppy said as Mommy nods and they both trek further into the darkness. "I hope they're okay... make sure to scan for paw prints in the dirt if you can, it might lead us the the critters" Poppy spoke as she looked towards the ground and seen a lot of claw marks, worrisome.
