Terror Bugs: Part 3 - A Freezer Mice Adventure
[Continued from ‘Terror Bugs: Part 2 - A Freezer Mice Adventure’] __________ London’s streets resembled an al fresco mausoleum They tracked a trail of body parts which led to a museum A thousand Terror Bugs were massed, in silence, looking in Until they sensed the Freezer Mice and wailed an awful din As though of conjoined mind the beasts turned at the scent of shrew And when they all fell silent, Stanley said, “What do we do?” Churchill shrugged. “We’ve never seen them this restrained before, Which makes me wonder what those creatures might have come here for.” Stanley eyed the Terror Bugs. “Why do they not attack, Could it be they’ve gathered here to see if you come back?” All three shrews looked dumbstruck until Stanley made it clear. “It’s where the army held you till we hightailed outta here.” Cody scratched his ‘chin’. Those bugs can trace us where we go But no way can they know that we were here so long ago So something must have drawn them here: I guess this may sound daft But when they dug us from the ice, what happened to our craft?” Stanley watched the Terror Bugs, unnerved by their inaction And just a little more concerned about his friends reaction He took a breath to ease the trepidation in his heart. “I think it’s very likely that they’ve taken it apart.” Churchill shook his head and said in no uncertain manner, “That’s never gonna happen for some workman with a spanner. If it’s in that building there, just take it as a fact It’s not some pound-shop plastic toy: Our ship will be intact” Crocket said dejectedly, “We’ll never make it fly It’s been a rather long time since it fell out of the sky.” Churchill ginned and said, “It’s done with going into space But it may help us fight those bugs and take us from this place.” Cody said, “To get her back, we’re gonna need a plan But even if we start her up, she’s way too small for Stan.” Stanley tapped his steering wheel. “This baby is my steed, Let’s formulate a plan on which we all can be ag— The piercing squeal as every Terror Bug rose from the ground Nonetheless could not drown out the drumming wing beat sound Cody drew his phaser. “Seems our way ahead is blocked. Stanley, drive real slow and keep your doors and windows locked.” Churchill looked at Crocket and said, “No one lives forever, If today will be the day, at least we’ll go together.” Stanley put the car in gear and eased the car ahead The Terror Bugs all moved aside as though he’d been misled. Churchill cried, “They know we’re here and yet they let us pass And Stanley Dann yelled to his friends, “Can they not see through glass?” Cody eyed the Terror Bugs, “They’ll savage all they see, They’re stumped because they sense us but cannot see you or me.” Stanley pulled up at the door. “So what do we do now? Churchill said, “We get our ship.” And then he told them how. The Freezer Mice all clicked their fingers causing them to shrink And Stanley wound his window down; there wasn’t time to think The Terror Bugs all pounced at once as Stanley moved the car Acid drool burned through the roof before he’d got too far But Terror Bugs can smell a shrew from many city blocks They turned to see the Freezer Mice slip through the letter box The sturdy wooden doors put up a truly worthy fight Their timbers stood against the beasts till day turned into night Stan had fled although his rear view mirror hadn’t lied When hinge succumbed to acid and the doors burst open wide The Terror Bug’s euphoric screeching didn’t wake the dead But anyone in bed would pull the sheets over their head A thousand manic Terror Bugs had barged in through the doors Their acid drool now burning holes up stairs and through the floors With all those awful beasts now tracking those they sought inside People took the chance to run from where they’d found to hide Tanks and rocket launchers now lined up and checked their aim And inside the museum rabid demons did the same Bugs that smashed out through the walls were swooping everywhere They hurled and spat their acid at the armoured vehicles there The tanks and launchers couldn’t lock on such erratic foe Snipers scored a hit or two which made those monsters grow With acid melting armour plate and also human skin The army were retreating from a fight they couldn’t win The onslaught ceased abruptly and the creatures headed in Responding to the manic cry of Terror Bugs within Suddenly, erupting from a newly ruptured roof A boulder, two feet long and shaped like an incisor tooth Rose into the sky and shed its rock-like outer shell Which showered rubble on pursuing demons out of hell Inside the craft three finger clicks; a toggled switch or two A flash of light lit up the night; at once the spacecraft grew Terror Bugs in hot pursuit paused only for a while Inside the craft: three Freezer Mice… and each one wore a smile Churchill said, “We’ve caught their eye, so what do we do next?” Crocket smirked. “It’s gonna be what nobody expects. Cody, there’s a lot of tunnels underneath the river Please be sure our missiles will be ready to deliver.” *** Stanley took the call and listened to some quick fire chat “Crocket, Have you lost it? They will never sanction that.” Finally, he cut the call and feeling pretty dumb He made a call to London’s Mayor… but first he called his mum __________ [Continued in ‘Terror Bugs: Part 4 - A Freezer Mice Adventure’]
