The Mystery of Skylands: Not Earth
Chapter 23. The Death Pit
SWITCH: Slobber Tooth?
His eyes open, He is a turtle, a Skylander turtle, he doesn’t who how he got here, he last remembers being captured by tiny dark dragons on a racetrack. He is Slobber Tooth. He is a dark jail cell, with steel bars with nothing but a bowl of water and a bowl of cookies… He opens his mouth. “Hello?” he says, with hope of a response. No response… ‘How long has it been since the racetrack?’ he thinks, ‘did they bring me here’ and ‘am I forget anything?’ He tries to jog his memories, nothing… “Help!” He hears footsteps, someone’s coming… An evilized Greeble comes up to him… “It’s your turn to fight” says the Greeble, unlocking the jail cell, “Go down the hall and enter”. He tries to escape free, but his body is curious and he walks down the hall. “Welcome” an annoying familiar voice says…
“Welcome everyone, to the Death Pit!” says the voice. The lights focus on the voice, Slobber Tooth sees where the voice is coming from… It’s the stupid fairy! Persephone! “Today, we have three competitors!” yells Persephone. Lights go on everywhere and Slobber Tooth sees an audience of Greebles and Mini Malefors. “Our competitors are Slobber Tooth, Eruptor and Boom Jet as they fight until they DIE!!!” Slobber Tooth views an also confused Eruptor and Boom Jet on the other sides of the room. “Let us go!!!” yells Eruptor. “This round will be interesting by the looks of it, the other Skylanders were so boring to kill…” says Persephone. “Other Skylanders? Who have you killed!?” yells Slobber Tooth. “Okay let’s see” replies Persephone, “I killed Rattle Shake, Echo, Dino-Rang, Annoying-Little-Roller Brawl, Crusher, Short Cut, Ugly ol’ Flashwing, Flip Wreck and Cute little BOP!” Slobber Tooth growls as he hears her talk about his dead mates. “Let’s just get on with Round one!!!” yells Persephone.
The three Skylanders group up in the middle, as swarms of Greeble come out of the hallways. “I have no weapons! What do I do?” asks Boom Jet. “We need you, use your fists!” replies Slobber Tooth, feeling like a good leader. Boom Jet punches the Greebles into the audience, finally realising he is strong. “How Boom Jet! You’re strong!” exclaims Eruptor. “Just thank Slobber Tooth” replies Boom Jet, smashing more Greebles. “Okay, let us rumble you mutated Greeblesters!” yells Slobber Tooth, smacking his tails at the Greebles. “Burn you suckers!” yells Eruptor, aiming some large fireballs are the Greebles. The Greebles topple over like dominos, and the Skylanders see no more. “Round two!” yells Persephone. Suddenly, the Mini Malefors from the audience morph into strange looking Greeble-Slimes and they jump from the stands.
“Let’s bring it on!” yells Boom Jet, getting his fist ready. Eruptor launches fireballs as the slimes burn and set fire to each other. “Great job Eruptor!” says Slobber Tooth. “Nothing an Eon’s Elite can’t help with!” exclaims Eruptor. “HELP!” yells Boom Jet, his whole body covered in slime, “I can’t move! He’s squeezing me…” Slobber Tooth dashes over to Boom Jet, remembering he isn’t a turtle. The Slime squeezes Boom Jet then spits him out. “Slobber Tooth!? Is he breathing?” ask Eruptor, running over in worry. Slobber Tooth lets out a cry, “NO! He’s dead!!!” Persephone laughs and sends out the Greebles from the audience to go after the Skylanders. “I can’t believe it, but we have to move on” says Eruptor, in tearing of lava. “Eruptor, I think we might die now… So much Greebles!” yells Slobber Tooth, moving backwards to a wall with Eruptor, in which they are getting cornered…
“Slobber Tooth! What do we do!? They have iron fists!” yells Eruptor. “We have to resign, maybe she’ll let us off?” inquires Slobber Tooth, knowing the idea is stupid. “WE RESIGN!!!” yells Eruptor. “WE FREAKING RESIGN!!!” yells Slobber Tooth. Persephone looks at them, “Too Late!” she says…
Suddenly, the two Skylanders get cornered, closes their eyes in horror and get smashed by the Iron Fists. Lava drips from the dead Eruptor, splatting everywhere… Slobber Tooth opens his eyes, he can’t think as he feels the blood dripping… He closes his eyes, knowing his life has ended, he whispers… “Poobum…” and falls into eternal sleep…
Persephone laughs and says, “WHAT A BAD LEADER!!! All the others made it over ten rounds, except Annoying-Little-Roller Brawl, she didn’t finish round one!”
