This isn't Fun At All!
Once the Nightmare Critters and Pianosaurus were locked securely in the cages, Catnap and Doey started running to where they remember seeing the three other critters run off to. Meanwhile, Picky, Bobby, And Crafty were trying their hardest to try and follow where Dogday was being taken to, but with the two critters carrying him, flying around, it was pretty hard to catch up. Thankfully, Dogday seemed to be slowly recovering from the concussion as now he was also kicking and screaming for the two Nightmare Critters to let him go.
"Don't worry, Dogday! We're following right behind you!" Bobby shouted out, panting heavily for how long they were running and chasing Dogday. They were making good progress on following the their leader until they were face to face with another one of the Doctor's minions. Large unmoving eyes glared stupidly at the three, pale orange skin was under the bright, fuzzy, and soft rainbow mane. The most noticeable detail of this creature was it's mouth. It's face hinges at the top and the bottom of the head, opening up sideways to reveal lines of massive and sharp teeth, followed by a deep, dark, red gullet. Despite the unfamiliarity of the creature, it was strikingly similar to a toy that Playtime Co. would sell, Yarnaby. Once the jaw opened up and the creature roared at the three critters, they all screamed and tried to dodge the chomps of its maw, and slashes of its claws. But one thing led to another, and the three were writhing on the floor in pain, as Yarnaby grabbed the three all in its mouth and walked with Simon and Rabie, who had now tied a rope around Dogday, binding him from moving.
"Let us all go!" Dogday shouted at the three toys, struggling against his bindings and failing miserably. The two critters had tied up the orange cocker spaniel so tight that it was cutting off blood circulation. From afar, Catnap and Doey sprinted through the dimly lit halls of the factory, their feet paws slamming against the cold, near metallic floor. They were able to hear the distant echoes of screaming, which Catnap had recognized as Dogdays' voice. Hearing it, the two larger toys had felt shivers went through them, fearing that the worst has happened.
"C'mon! We have to find them before it's too late!" Catnap said while panting from his running, his fur bristling and his pointed ears pinned back on his head in distress. Doey could sense the fear and desperation in his voice. After all, it was his lover and his friends that were currently being taken away.
"I know that, but if we are to just run in there blind, we could end up like them, or they could be killed." Doey said, trying to keep Catnap from doing anything stupid. Meanwhile, Yarnaby’s massive jaws clamped shut around Picky, Bobby, and Crafty, his jagged teeth pressing dangerously close to their more fragile forms. Their weak and pleading cries were barely audible as the monstrous toy carried them along the winding corridors. Dogday tried his best to fight and thrash against his restraints, his fur damp with sweat as the ropes dug deep into his limbs.
"Please! You don't have to do this! You can still do the right thing!" Dogday shouted, trying to plead with the bat and the dragon who were dragging him on the floor. Simon looked behind him to peer at Dogday, his grin looking a bit too wide than what his mouth could handle, his sharp teeth almost glistening under the dim factory lights.
"How about you shut the fuck up? How about that?" Simon said before cackling lightly, with Rabie following with her own snickering.
"For us, it's not about doing the right thing. It's about following our orders." Simon said as his expression turned from a sadistic smile, to an unfocused frown. He then walked over to Dogday, putting his foot over him and quickly yanked at the end of the rope that he was holding, tightening it further. Dogday clenched his teeth, biting back a screech of pain, his muscles screaming in protest as his circulation was further restricted. His vision blurred for a moment while his body too weak to fight back. But just as the large creature holding the three critters had turned a corner at an intersection, a blur of purple fur and mix of colored clay lunged from a spot that Yarnaby wasn't watching. Catnap got the jump on the creature with a rainbow mane, causing him to yelp and let go of the three critters he was holding in his maw, while Doey quickly stretched out his arms and hands, restraining the two Nightmare Critters and pushing them against the wall.
"Catnap!" The four critters shouted out in unison, excited for their friend had come over to finally save them. Catnap couldn't do much to free Dogday, since he was still subduing Yarnaby, so Picky, Bobby, and Crafty got up to try and untie Dogdays' ropes.
"Where were you gonna take them?" Dogday asked the two Nightmare Critters, before he asked the question, they were snarling and growling, but when he did, the two started to grin and laugh.
"What's so funny?!" Doey shouted at the two, causing both of them to stop laughing but to continue grinning.
"Who else? The Doc." Rabie replied, causing Catnap, Doey, Dogday, Picky, Bobby, and Crafty to all widen their eyes in horror. Just then from out of nowhere a bunch of large exoskeletons with televisions for heads, showed up from behind a corner and started to run at all of them. With Catnap and Doey being the first ones they targeted. And since they were preoccupied with holding other toys, they were easily overpowered by the robots who seemed larger than even the critters. Dogday, Picky, Bobby, and Crafty were quickly recaptured. Catnap was trying to fight off the other robots with his other limbs, causing him to lose his control over Yarnaby and him getting freed. Doey tried his best to fight off the multiple robots, Yarnaby, and the two Nightmare Critters, but it proved no use. With one look from Catnap and Dogday, who all screamed at him to run without them, Doey slithered himself through a ventilation system, disappearing from view. Once Doey had escaped, someone came into view, someone human. Someone which everyone on Catnap's side had recognized as Dr. Harley Sawyer, in the flesh. He took a look around every single one of the Critters, silently judging each and every detail that he saw was different than what he originally did. The one time that he did spoke was when he looked at Catnap, and smiled quite sadistically.
"Experiment 1188. You had quite the kill count on the Hour of Joy, surpassing even Experiment 1222 and Experiment 1170 combined. Though it's a shame that Experiment 1006 had to corrupt and torture you, you'll be safe with me now, where you're able to do what you were meant to do, be a guardian." Dr. Sawyer said before turning to a robot beside him and grabbing some kind of rifle from its hands. Catnap immediately recognised this weapon as the tranquilizer gun and started to thrash around and scream as each one of his friends were shot with a dart and slowly fell to sleep, and of course Catnap was left for last.
"No! No! No! Please! Don't put me to sleep! The Prototype has me under the pain!!!" Catnap started to plead with the Doctor before he stared at him with an unamused look.
"Oh c'mon. Do you really think he's psychic? Telepathic? He's just had a hand in all of your surgeries and had implanted something in tour brain to fool yourself into feeling pain. All of you who were dumb enough to believe him had it triggered." Dr. Sawyer said scathingly. The last thing that he remembers is staring up at The Doctor's sadistic face while a voice from a radio speaks out, recognising her voice as Hoppy's.
"Dogday!? Dogday are you still there?! Doey came to us and said that your radio was still intac-------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------......

Hoppy was running as fast as she can. Along with Mommy and Boxy who were following along. She always prided herself with running fast, but when it came to it, it felt like she could run way faster but didn't. Eventually, the three were almost at the rendezvous point that Catnap and Dogday would be at and there, outside of the large room, they saw Bunzo. On the ground and unmoving. Hoppy ran forward to check on the fellow rabbit, it would seem that he was still alive and breathing, just unconscious. Boxy quickly opened the door to reveal the large room with cages, and they all saw the Smiling Critters and Pianosaurus in the cages, not even trying to escape. Eventually, Huggy Wuggy and Kissy Missy had arrived.
"Well I doubt any of the prisoners have anything to say, if only Bunzo was awake, he could probably tell us." Mommy Long Legs exclaimed. Just then, deep rumbling noise could be heard from a vent on the wall, then clay seemed to ooze from the vent creases and Doey slowly materialised.
"Doey! Where's Catnap and Dogdays' group?!" Hoppy quickly asked as Doey caught his breath for a moment.
"Dogday, Picky, Bobby, and Crafty were all captured by Simon Smoke, Rabie Baby, and Yarnaby. So me and Catnap went to save them but then we were ambushed by The Doctor and a bunch of robots, everyone told me to leave them behind." Doey said quite ashamedly.
"Hey, it's okay Doey, it was the only thing you could do." Hoppy said, trying to comfort Doey.
"But Dogday still had his radio! You could still try and radio him, maybe someone could pick up!" Doey said as Hoppy quickly pulled out her radio to start talking.
""Dogday!? Dogday are you still there?! Doey came to us and said that your radio was still intact, so please answer!" Hoppy pleaded through the radio. After a short moment, someone picked up the radio and started talking.
"Hoppy Hopscotch?" Said the Doctor, in his cold and usual attitude.
"Dr. Sawyer..." Hoppy said, sounding angry.
"Yes it's me, now all of your friends are with me right now. So don't bother trying to call me again." Dr. Sawyer said before the line went dead.
