Smiling Critters continues on...

Chapter 485

"So we are all doomed?" Boxy Boo growls. "We don't know that for sure!" Daddy Longlegs said "perhaps it could benefit the toys more than the humans, or maybe it'll destroy all of us in the end, we aren't sure his true plans yet" as Daddy tried to explain he sighed a bit tiredly. "I need to understand his true motives, and if this toy" Boxy Boo gestures to the unknown toy "can help me understand, I will follow them over the Prototype" as Boxy Boo said this Daddy Longlegs and Baby Longlegs both looked at the unknown toy with unreadable expressions. "Very well Boxy Boo... but the Prototype will not be happy hearing this" Daddy Longlegs took Baby Longlegs away from the two toys and brought him towards a scrap yard where broken toy parts were all scattered around. "Remember when you saw Mommy and Poppy son?" Daddy Longlegs asked his son who in turn nods with a small smile "yeah they were nice" Baby Longlegs said giggling a bit knowing the two were still being held captive. "Yes, they were, but we can't go near them because they're brainwashed, they don't understand the importance of following orders" Daddy Longlegs explained to Baby Longlegs who nods along at the explanation. "So in a way then they're traitors" Baby Longlegs questioned "yes, and the Prototype will have them eliminated soon" Daddy Longlegs said with a frown thinking about Mommy Longlegs. "We can't become as lost as them" he said with a stern expression. "Right, because then..." Baby Longlegs couldn't finish the sentence knowing that the Prototype was a very strict overlord, and not to be messed with or questioned. "We're safe... right?" Baby Longlegs looked at his father, and his father nods. "Yeah, as long as we obey without hesitation we will be fine..." Daddy Longlegs wasn't even sure about that though, he had seen in the past that a few obedient toys were scraped off for simply denying a simple task. He gulps fearing for himself and his son.

At the school the scientists were still going through the burnt remains of the old building. "Wait" one of the scientists heard a certain sound that sounded like scratching, they walked into a classroom filled with filing cabinets, lockers, and a large desk in the center. They heard the noise coming from behind the desk, and they immediately started to slowly make their way over to the desk. "Who goes there?" one of the scientists were basically speaking with a stutter, but the figure behind the desk slowly moved to stand up. The scientists all had their grab packs facing the intruder, but as the figure stood there, and their face was covered by the shadows of the dark room, and the one light that still worked was flickering too much to actually make out any prominent features of the figure's face. "I asked who goes there?!" the scientist was not taking a chance and shot a flare at the figure, but to their shock the figure just punched the flare away into a wall. "Uh oh..." the scientists all backed up.
