The Adventures of Freddy The Flea Pt 26

Previously on Freddy The Flea:

The escaped prisoners were locked in a fierce battle with Lord Tick's army.

Hessster was eventually overpowered by Spencersss, and Fria called out a warning as the massive Claw of Death came down from the skies.

Just before DaFlea was completely overwhelmed, he waved his arms in the air as a signal.

All the while, Bruce Flea had been busy knocking Ticks and Roughneck Fleas left, right and center.

Part 26

As the Claw of Death came crashing down, it missed Hessster by a few inches.

“Retreat!” Lord Tick shouted as he pulled back on Spencersss reigns.

Spencersss didn’t want to let go, until Lord Tick hit him on the head with his cane, and yerked back on the reigns.

The Claw of death was about to come down again, and Hessster managed to scurry away, just in time.

Lord Ticks’ army was still fighting the escaped prisoners, with scuffles all around. Some of them got caught up by the Claw of Death, while others were in heated battles against each other.

DaFlea was being pummeled by a large group of Roughneck Fleas, and just as he was about to be completely overwhelmed, Ssstower came crashing into the group.

“Thank goodness,” DaFlea said, with abated breath, “You saw my signal.”

“Yesss, Ssstower sees Flea wavesss handsss.”

Lord Tick continued his calls to retreat, as the Claw of Death came raining down. Some soldiers heeded the call, while others were still too distracted by their battles.

It wasn’t long before the sandpaper-like tongue followed the Claw of Death, as it scooped up a few Fleas here and there, with shouts and screams filling air.

“Quick! We need to retreat!” Bruce Flea shouted out.

“It’s the Grating Tongue of Terror!”

DaFlea had already hopped onto Ssstower, as they rushed towards the exit heading to Lord Ticks Chambers.

By this time, most of the army had retreated, as the rest of the prisoners started giving chase, or just tried to get away from the Tongue of Terror.

As Ssstower came racing past Bruce Flea, he jumped up, and DaFlea grabbed him by the arm. With one smooth motion, Bruce Flea landed right next to DaFlea, as they headed through the exit.

“We need to wait for the rest, Ssstower,” DaFlea called out, causing him to come to a screeching halt.

The escaped prisoners were all streaming in, with a few of Lord Ticks Roughneck Fleas and Ticks in tow.

Hessster was the last to come through, and DaFlea smiled as he saw Freddy and Fria still riding on top of her.

As the Fleas looked down the long, wide pathway, they saw Lord Tick and his army pulling ahead, before entering his chamber.

“Let’s go!” Bruce Flea called out to the party, “Hop onto the Berserkers.”

The escapees all hopped onto Hessster and Ssstower before they went charging after Lord Tick.

As they reached the chamber, they noticed Lord Tick at the end. He gave them a sly smile, as he looked toward the party.

‘Something’s not right,’ DaFlea thought to himself before the large doors shut behind them.

“Now!” Lord Tick commanded.

Before they could move, two massive nets came down onto the Berserkers. Ticks and Roughneck Fleas came pouring out from the shadows, pinning them down to the ground.

The holes were big enough for the Fleas to get out, however, there were too many of Lord Ticks’ army to fight back.

“Hahaha,” Lord Ticks laughs bellowed as his wobbly belly jiggled.

All around Ticks and Roughneck Fleas closed in on the party.

“There’s too many of them,” Bruce Flea exclaimed.

DaFlea still wanted to take them on, however, Bruce Flea stopped him.

Within minutes, the party had been chained up in a single file.

“Move it Fleas!” one of the Roughnecks called out as he poked DaFlea in the ribs with his staff.

Freddy looked back at Hessster and Ssstower, as they were being chained up. Luckily, he’d hidden the Berserker Juice under her wing, with Lord Tick and his army none the wiser.

"Freddy'sss," Hessster called out before letting off a rumbling roar.

Freddy looked on helplessly as they party was moved from the chamber to a narrow pathway.

"To the Ring of Fire!" Lord Tick called out, with his cane held up high.

Cheers rang out from his army, followed by chants.

"Ring of Fire."
