Splashing
Ripping
Flopping
A Spotted Dragon swerving through the swamp, quickly arriving at a scene with two destroyed robots. Looking left, then right, then moving forward, locating the cave, moss down with vines, exposing it unlike before. Tongue hooking out and going back in, it’d step forward, head poked in, seeing inside, the group of five… and the treasure.
“Well, with this we’re rich!”
“Like, yeah, even my parents aren’t this wealthy.”
“Guys, we need to call Flavo and get the limo into town to pick this all up.”
“I agree, we should take it back now, what do you all think?”
“It’s gotta be worth billions and billions of dollars!”
Tongue out and then back in, feet crunching, the Spotted Dragon slowly stepping back.
Splashing
Scraping
Crunching
All five now looking at the entrance, all laughing, all smiling.
“Ha, off to tell its master.”
“Well, let’s not keep the mastermind waiting,” Derrick would laugh, “This guy is in for a real surprise.”
-
The stroke of five in the morning, the town empty, no one present, other than the five slowly approaching, all carrying a large wooden chest, struggling, even Derrick, “Man this is heavy even for me-”
“Like, stop complaining and put your back into it.”
“Ugh, this is sooooooooooooo heavy!”
“Pst, we’re almost there… keep it real now.”
Slowly approaching the bus stop, all five would then set the chest down with a thud, all winded.
“Oh man, this’ll make us rich rich rich!”
“Yeah, there is like, so much money here!”
“Gold-”
“Like, whatever.”
Silence, all five looking around, seconds passing and then minutes, the wind blowing, brush slowly moving, echoing of the wood of the town creaking, nothing more, nothing less…
“I don’t think this is working.”
“Quiet you’re going to blow it!”
Just then, rumbling, the swamp water shaking, the puddles splashing, the crunching of brush, the crashing of trees… the shattering of the trees next, a massive fifty foot Spotted Dragon ripping through and slamming down, shrieking out a super loud call, drool flying as it’d shriek towards the group.
“That’s… big!”
“Hey, on its head!”
A man, or rather a humanoid looking figure, wearing an alligator suit standing upright, looking down chuckling, his arms crossed, “HAHAHA, FOOLS, you have found the treasure for me, exactly what I was counting on, mwahahaha!!!”
“This guy...”
“Yeah...”
“Pretty dumb.”
“I heard that, how dare you call me dumb!? I am an evil mastermind, I am the one who caused all this! You only got lucky by destroying my robots somehow but I doubt you can crush this one!!”
“Oh yeah and what’s your name?!”
“Heh…” he’d chuckle, arms thrown out, “I am...” glaring now down at them, “I am!!...”
All five looking at him, Derrick’s expression annoyed, Sam’s blank, Dilan’s sleepily, Amber’s head tilted with a disgusted expression, and Monte with his eyes closed looking down, fake sleeping.
“I AM GATOR TATOR!!!”
All five quickly looking up, eyes blinking, all speaking, “Gator Tator!?” Immediately, all breaking out in group laughter, Dilan falling over, Monte spitting out gum, Amber’s head going backwards, Derrick bent forward, and Sam trying to cover her mouth, the man stomping his foot, “How dare you!?”
“Like, is this guy for real?”
“You’ll never stop me!”
“Hold that thought.”
With a single leap, Derrick bending down with his knees and a leap up and…
WHACK!!!
“Gyuhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhh-”
SPLASH
SPLAT
Down in the muck, now laid Gator Tator, a red swell on his right cheek, gator mask off revealing him to be Sindra… the Spotted Dragon giant just standing with no direction anymore, as if awaiting orders, Derrick landing atop the Dragon’s head, looking back and down at his team, “Alright, let’s get out of here guys!”
“EHHHHHHHHHHH!?” all four in turn gasped.
“What?”
“You know, that was pretty anticlimactic.”
“We’re super human now… and he was just human. It isn’t to be unexpected you know.”
“So… why was Sindra against us?”
“It wasn’t Sindra. It’s just some guy who spied on us using his robots pretending to be Sindra to trick us. He used the legends of the swamp to fool us and used holograms of townspeople so people would see them. He’d claim there are none and have them disappear to make people think the area is haunted, then send in his robots to scare people off while he looked for the treasure. He probably fabricated that book you and Sam found to make us think weird things were actually happening here, which, well they weren’t. When we found the treasure and pretended to bring it back, he decided to reveal himself, especially after we beat his robots.”
“So… we essentially just wasted our time here is what you’re saying?”
“Something like that. I mean, if we didn’t have powers, we might’ve been in trouble but because we have some, this was just easy.”
“WHAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAA!?!?!?!?”
