Chapter 3: Under the Streets
[Meanwhile...] Another ???: That stupid Halloween-costumed brat! Try to control those bloody bats I got to temporarily control? Weak. An another ???: Uhh, didn't you say you let them out for a relaxing flight?... Still, I don't think that Baron von Bats is someone to mess with. The first ???: Guess I'll let it be for now. *disappears* The other ???: Yeah, you should reveal yourself soon, I'm tired of lurking in the shadows having all these ??? as my names, so confusing. (Back to where the gang was, they follow Baron von Bats and his guards into a town. It was a long journey, but finally, they made their way into a town of the Renaissance Era, named Zomosc) Undead Sun God: What kind of name is this. (The guards are, not surprising, all zombies, and in the front comes a big and steady fortress surrounding the town with a "strict" security system (which is a huge pile of guards and Rally Zombies guarding, sort of, in each door). The gang enters the town. The houses around them are... not quite good - just bricks lying on eachother, or by other materials but are not well-built, as this is a town of zombies. All zombies.) Baron von Bats: Gentlemen. We're going down. (They open a cover into the sewers and go down there. In front of them is a huge door made of something metal-like, reflecting their images. It seems like that door is the only thing clean down here.) Fololo: Now where are we at...? Espada: This is disgusting. How do you guys live like this!? Hunter Clone #16: Look, they're zombies. Just get used to the smell and stop complaining. Baron von Bats: For now. (Puts a hand on the door) Heh. Wanna try beating this door? Falala: We can't! We're not for fighting or like that! Fololo: But we can try...if it really is needed... Undead Sun God: Whatever. I'll go for this. Destructive Solar Blast! (The door is still in one piece. Undead Sun God is surprised.) Baron von Bats: You see? This is literally a prison for all of you overpowered wanderers. No matter what weapons you were granted or earned during your trip into the Locked Rooms, you won't escape! Once you enter this dungeon, don't even think of going out. Undead Sun God: Well, that's cool and all, but why imprisoning us? Baron von Bats: Ah. You may be thinking it's because of eating brains, because those guards are actual unawakened zombies yadda yadda yadda. No no no no no... Though, we still are gonna eat your brains, but we've got other stuff up our sleeves. Gargantuar (guard): What's the password? Baron von Bats: You suck! Gargantuar (guard): (opens the door) Come in. Baron von Bats: You'll get things clear when you see the boss. Though, I'll make sure that'll never happen. First though, just to be safe, hand me all of your weapons. Science Nerd: Uhh... what for? Baron von Bats: JUST GIVE IT! Undead Sun God: Ok ok fine. (He and Science Nerd toss all kinds of guns into the enemies' faces) Giant: Grrr... How dare you...! Hunter Clone #7: RUDE. Science Nerd: There, we gave you our weapons. Now for the rest of the gang. Espada: Nope, not me, I don't have any weapons as all of them are like, already part of my body. Baron von Bats: Very well. (Takes Jelo's and Rosewell's weapons) Off you go... to jail. (Baron von Bats exits, leaving the gang in prison. A loud bang rings out as the door shuts itself immediately. Two Gargantuars and a Spear Thrower is guarding) Jelo: So... what now? Science Nerd: Any ideas? Rosewell: Seems like we have to beat the guards and try to find a way to open the door. Fololo: Not even being small will work! Falala: Worthless. We really need to do something here, like planning right now. Blue Ocean: Yeah, why don't we just wait until we have a plan? Undead Sun God: Isn't that what we're trying to do right now? [silence] Jelo: Hey, look on the bright side, we're great at procrastinating right? We can just... sit down, do whatever random stuff we want, while wait for somebody else to be warped here, greet them and go for some nonsense chit-chat, just like what we always do back then! ???: Wait what. No no the Locked Room Gang is supposed to be interdimensional heroes who spend days restoring balance from room to room, and this is not supposed to be your playtime! Rosewell: Uhh... I dunno... It doesn't seem like we have a choice... Red Fork: Yeah, things seem to happen wayyyy to quickly now that I think it's better for us to get ourselves some rest! Now who wants to play a game of Monopoly? (Undead Sun God is smacking his face onto the wall while Science Nerd is trying to find his glasses) Blue Ocean: I think I'll pass on this one. Red Fork: That's fine, *zooms in* I'll play with myself. Rosewell: Alright, as usual I have food packed with me. Anyone wants some? Jelo: Oh great! *Takes an apple* Thanks Rosewell. Espada: I'm not hungry so... (Seems like everyone's doing their own things now) Baron von Bats [from outside]: *hears noise coming out of the prison* Hey! What the heck is happening in there?! Fololo (leans self to wall, plugged with earplugs): Ahhh... so relaxing... Falala (same as Fololo): I know right. ???: Look, I'm not into any of this. Whatever you do that's not involved in my job, I don't care, I'm still going to find a way to get out of here. Rosewell: Your job?... Oh that reminds me, how much are you involved with all of this anyway? ???: I don't think it's any of your business anymore. You can just sit there and finish your meal and chit-chat without me. Red Fork: Hey, that wasn't very nice! Blue Ocean: Yeah, we just want our time together to be fun! (Undead Sun God is now fainted! Smacking Onto The Wall was super effective!) Jelo: Uh, you ok? Espada: ...I don't see any fun in this but... haiz you got the point. ???: No, I don't. Look, I'm not joining you for nothing. I think you all knew I trusted you for this whole save the world mission or whatever. But now I don't know if you're treating this seriously enough. Science Nerd: Oh, here they ar- no it's just Falala. *throws him away* Fololo: Hey! ???: I just wanted to ensure that everything would go according to plan, especially for something so dangerous and so important as this. I failed so many times, got lost from my original team, and had nothing to do but wandering around. Red Fork: *rolls the dice as P1* Oh, double six! *moves his piece by twelve tiles* Ooh, I'm good right? *quickly runs to other side and rolls dice as P2* A five and a two! *moves P2's piece by seven tiles, lands on Chance* Hah! You have activated my trap card! Blue Ocean: *still struggling with his technical stuff, trying to invent something new* Do you even know how to play? ???: I was so glad I found you, the legendary Locked Room Gang that was mentioned everywhere I go. We never actually found the gang as you all seem to appear in one room at a time being bound to the Room Maker's rule. Fololo: Wait, we're actually that popular? ???: Yeah, for everything. From destroying enemies with spectacular superpowers to wrecking an entire dimension apart. I thought you guys sure are something. Falala: I know... right... *faints* Undead Sun God: *randomly wakes up* But I'm awake now hahaha! ???: I was on the point of losing all my hope trying to save the world from this whole mess but... *sighs* Still... Thank you. (Whole gang turns to look at ??? in silence, except Falala, still fainted) ???: Wh- What is it? Jelo: No it's just- Rosewell: Sorry... for disappointing you. I- ???: No don't worry. *takes a banana from Rosewell's place* I guess some fun would help me out a little bit. But can you please promise that- y'know, cooperate with me in saving the world? Falala: *wakes up immediately* Of course! We're trying to escape from this maze too! Science Nerd: You can count on us, but like, mind telling us your name? ???: Oh yes, I was about to do that. I don't want to reveal much of my real identity so... Johnny. Call me Johnny. *eats banana* Undead Sun God: About the plan though, why don't we wait until the guards are asleep? That way we'll have time to deal with the door. Fololo: Hmm...will take some time, but yeah. Blue Ocean: For now... Undead Sun God: LET'S PART- (All of a sudden, a loud bang comes from the door as it swings open, hitting Spear Thrower in the face) Baron von Bats: What do you think you're doing?!!! Jelo: Uhh... Having fun in jail?... Oh. Baron von Bats: Oh boy, you are not gonna like this. *takes out Flex Tape* Red Fork: Oh god. Espada: Heh, you know I can cut those easy as- (The guards immediately lock Espada alone in a cage nearby, which seems to be made of the same material as the door) Espada: Darn it. *tries to cut the bars but fails* What are these things even made of?! (Baron von Bats attempts to use Flex Tape on the mouths of the rest of the gang) Undead Sun God: (definitely Flex Tape language) Mhmhmmmhmhm Science Nerd: Mhmmhm? Hmhmhmmmhm Baron von Bats: Welp! Have fun! (Baron von Bats once again shuts the door as Spear Thrower faints and falls off) [Midnight, when the guards are all already asleep] Blue Ocean: *finally finished with his invention* MHM! Hmhmhmhhhhmhmhmmmhmhmhmmmmhhhmhm! Mhhhmhmmhmhmhhhmhmm! Red Fork: h (Blue Ocean presses the one big red button at the center of the machine. A huge blast comes from the machine, exploding the whole room. The smoke blinds the view for a few seconds, but miraculously, nothing else but the cage's bars are destroyed into smithers. The door is still standing, though) Whole gang: MHMHMHMHMHMHMHM!!! @!&#*!&#*$(@$$)@$(#@ Espada: Oh boy, now stay still. *cuts all the tape sticking on their mouths into pieces* Welp, guess I sawed the tape in half, heh- wh- (A spear points into Espada. It's Spear Thrower. He's awake.) Spear Thrower: REBEL ALE- (Science Nerd throws him off the windows on the roof of the dungeon) Science Nerd: Scientist OUT! (Jumps off and onto Spear Thrower himself, squashing him, then runs as far as he could, followed by Undead Sun God) Gargantuar (guard): (awaken) Hey! Freeze! (The Gargantuar guards try to chase them but are too slow for the time being... Science Nerd then actually freezes one of the Gargantuar guards with Freeze Ray) Falala: We're running away! Fololo: Hey! Wait for me! (Both move quickly in order to not get caught...when another zombie guard blocks their way. And there's more guards on the back.) Fololo: We're surrounded! What to do... (Suddenly, all of the guards surrounding the two get wiped out by a force.) ???: Go, immediately! Falala: Sure, catch you on later! (Both Fololo and Falala move their way to the exit) (A while later, one of the Gargantuar guards managed to keep up as they head towards the sewers' exit. The other isn't much further away, despite being frozen earlier) Gargantuars (guards, both of them): Not on me watch. Me. Want. BRAINZZZ!!! (Both Gargantuars begin to charge up their electric poles) Jelo: Uh-oh, what to do now?! Science Nerd: Well, maybe we can't penetrate them, but we can stall them! (Takes out the charger from earlier, and switches its mode) This charger can charge itself by absorbing the energy around them! This will make them charge longer before the attack! Espada: Maybe I can cripple those bad guys! *impales one of the Gargantuars in his arm* (Through the chase) Fololo: Look, that must be the exit! (The sewers' cover flings out as the gang jumps out of the manhole. All the guards and zombies still mindlessly head towards to the rest of the sewers) Undead Sun God: Whoo yeah! As we're under fresh air now, time to go! (Runs) Science Nerd: Wait! We still have info to catch up on! Let's sneak into the dungeon again. It looks like the rest of the guards back there are all beaten by that mysterious guy. God of the Sun: Wait, they're all chasing us when we're escaping, which means... (The gang quickly runs back to the dungeon... It was empty!... Except for the weird purple crystals lying all around them) God of the Sun: Where's Baron von Bats? Scientist: Let's search around. Falala: What are those purple crystals? Fololo: Ignore them for now... Jelo: Well, this is alot of bling, time to proceed! Gang let's proceed! Undead Sun God: Hello? Anybody here? (The sound echoes throughout the dungeon) Science Nerd: It has been minutes already and we still find nothin- Undead Sun God: Hey! I found something! Science Nerd: ... Guess that "complaining-and-giving-up" trick worked. What is it? God of the Sun: Look at the door. The handwriting is ugly but look at it I can still know what's written on there:

 BOSS

Science Nerd: This must be where their boss is! From what I think it should be Zomboss. But the guards and Baron von Bats are gone, while the room is just silence... Undead Sun God: Wait... what if Baron von Bats is in the room?! Rosewell: (Takes a chainsaw from one of the fainted guards and cut a hole on the door, as it's made of wood) Nope. This room is empty as well. Undead Sun God: (Turns the doorknob) It's unlocked. Let's go inside. (The gang silently walks into the room) Scientist: Huh, this room has a lot of creepy stuff, and it's not just because it's in a dungeon. God of the Sun: Zombot heads, Zombot parts, and oh, its laser blaster is here too. I think we could steal all these as our weapons. Rosewell: Good idea. I'll take this funny-looking hat. (Jelo takes a bag near there and put all the weapons in. The bag is now stacked with dangerous weapons for nothing else but saving the world) Red Fork: Welp, looks like we have everything here now. Let's proceed. Scientist: Everything except for- (Looks down) A note. (Picks it up) Dear Baron von Bats, If you're reading this letter, then you brainless fool should know who this is. Have yourself there at the Zombie Chambers tonight. We'll finish our plan to end this chaos the next morning. Surely I'll destroy you if there's anyone else coming with you, so come, alone.
