The Adventures of Spendy Scoot and Shoo Part 7

Chapter 9

This is the end, thought Kiarra.

She could see the readings on the monitor. Hundreds of gorillas waiting for them. They would never make it.

The would go down with a fight, of course. But they could not win.

"Almost there!" Shouted Kiarra. She didn't care if the gorillas heard. They knew they were coming.

Katie and Kiarra raised there swords and Bookin raised her bow.

The light at the front of the train showed the end of the tracks. Kiarra pressed a button and the train began to slow.

They reached the end of the tracks and Kiarra could see that this was an identical train station to the one at the start of the tracks.

The girls stepped off the train. The train station looked fairly empty. There wasn't a gorilla in sight.

Suddenly Kiarra's noticed a small box underneath one of the chairs. She reached over and pulled it out from under the chair.

The box looked very high tech. It was black, and it had a handle on each side. There was a label on the top, and that's when Kiarra realized what it was.

"Bomb!" Yelled Kiarra. The three girls tried to run, but it was too late.

It turned out that it wasn't a bomb at all.  A green smoke began to come out the sides, and soon the room was full of the toxic fumes.

"Try not to breath!" Said Kiarra. The three girls tried to hold there breath, but they couldn't for very long.

Kiarra took a deep breath, and in seconds, her vision went black and she fell to the floor.

A loud clanging sound awoke Bookin from a deep sleep.

She opened her eyes to see that she, and Katie, were in a prison cell. Kiarra was not with them.

Katie was still sleeping, so Bookin shook her awake.

"Where are we?" Asked Katie.

"I'm not sure." Said Bookin.

The girls walked over to the bars. They could see prison cells down the left hallway and the right. The walls were made of a white stone.

There was a gorilla standing guard at there cell.

"Hey!" Said Bookin, trying to get the gorillas attention. The gorilla turned, and it was Banan, the gorilla king, and Bookin's former "lover".

Banan looked shocked, as if he hadn't bothered to look back to see who was in the cell yet.

"What are you doing her Bookin!" Asked Banan.

"We were captured by your gorillas!" Said Katie.

Banan laughed softly. "They are not my gorillas anymore." He said. "Someone has taken over the kingdom. A girl with the power to control people, mostly men."

"We need to find Kiarra!" Said Bookin. "Let us go!"

Banan stood his ground. "If I free you, they will kill me!" He said.

Bookin decided to try a different approach.

"Ban-Ban." Said Bookin, reaching through the bars and placing a hand on his shoulder. He shuddered. "You think you could wiggle the key a little babe, maybe break me loose, if ya know what I'm sayin."

Bookin didn't have any feelings for Banan, but he sure had feelings for her.

"Wanna know a secret babe?" Asked Bookin. Banan nodded, and Bookin leaned over and whispered something through the bars. Banan shuddered again. "Now you think you could let us free?" She said.

Katie watched all this go down with a look of disgust from the back of the cell.

Banan fumbled with the key as he pulled it out of his pocket as quickly as he could and place it in the the keyhole.

The door opened and Katie and Bookin rushed out. Banan tried to touch Bookin's hair, but she pushed him away.

The girls weapons were lying by the cell, so they grabbed them.

"Do you know where they are keeping our friend?" Katie asked Banan.

He thought for a moment. "This way I think."

The two girls and the gorilla went looking for Kiarra.

Kiarra woke to find darkness. She couldn't see anything. She was lying on a small pad. Kiarra could feel thick, smooth gloves on her hands.

She tried to sit up but she bumped her head. She felt around. Kiarra was in a small pod, with barely any moving space.

"Hey!" Said Kiarra. "Get me out of here!"

A light turned on it he room, and Kiarra realized that there was a small window above her face.

Suddenly a face appeared above the little window in the pod.

It was a girl. She had brown hair, and she was wearing too much makeup.

"Your almost ready for the extraction." Said the girl, laughing. Then the face disappeared and the light went out, plunging Kiarra into darkness once again.
