The walkway creaks and sways below your feet as you respond to Chuck with a curt nod! Alright, you fire back, then <span class="mu-i">he’s</span> jumping first!
Sensing that the old man’s about to punch you, you follow up your command with a frantic explanation: this whole damn place is coming down–does he <span class="mu-i">really</span> want to be stranded on this side with Raj if the whole catwalk breaks!?
“... Alright, you’ve got a point.” The groundskeeper grunts as he takes a few steps back from the edge, “Just watch your damn footing!”
With uncharacteristic dexterity for a man his age, Chuck sails across the yawning abyss like a track star in his golden years, and with Raj dangling from his back no less! Watching him land on the other side and effortlessly hop across the chunks of remaining catwalk, both you and Pepper share an impressed nod!
“I almost wanna <span class="mu-i">clap</span>...” She mutters before an explosion behind you rocks the whole chamber! Ducking beneath a squad of armor-clad dolphins and one very large snake in a business suit, it dawns on you both that you don’t really have the luxury of time anymore! Flecks of <span class="mu-s">PORTAL GOO</span> sail through the air around you as you both take a few coordinated steps back!
“Whatever happens,” Pepper sighs as she steadies herself for the jump, “Get the word out. Someone’s gotta pay for all this!”
Oh they <span class="mu-i">WILL</span>, you snarl, and they’re gonna pay with <span class="mu-i">INTEREST</span>, too! Bobbing your heads to the quiet count of three, you run but freeze <span class="mu-i">just</span> as a giant, multicolored <span class="mu-s">EEL</span> passes in front of you!
Crashing through your landing zone and doubling the distance between you, Chuck and Raj, the pointy fish gives you both a cheeky grin as it tumbles into the light show forming below… what a <span class="mu-i">DICK!</span>
Just when you think all is lost, your red-headed companion lights up with renewed, well… <span class="mu-i">Pep!</span>
“WAIT!” Shouts Pepper as she whips around to point behind you, “We can still get across!”
Turning around with her, your weary eyes bug out when you find yourself about to be decked by a massive-
“<span class="mu-s">FRUUUIIIIIITTTT CAAAAAAAART!</span>” Shrieks Raj as he abruptly wakes up on Chuck’s back!
… and gets subsequently punched for the sudden outburst!
