Incy Wincy Spider

The burger was lifted up level to Peter Lightbringer's bearded mouth, and
Seymour watched in horror as the mouth opened, revealing some very large teeth.
Seymour screamed as his entire body went into the cavernous mouth.

Meanwhile, back in the mcdonalds, the small group had successfully made their
way through the terrible, unhygienic and smelly fast food restaurant. By the
time they had got to the other end, Wolfgang had filled an entire notepad with
things that needed fixing in this place, or it would have to be closed down for
health and safety reasons.
They quickly and easily broke the vent that lead to the next store, where they
knew the Temporal Terrapins had been hiding. Moving slowly, they watched from
the edge.
"And we, the Mighty Terrapins, will take over the ship!" Boomed the voice of
their leader, through some kind of microphone system. All of the turtles were
wearing their temporal devices, ready to make their move. Although it would
take them the best part of a year to reach the Drive Room, at this very moment,
they were in the Promenade.
"Thats the turtles that shot us." Justin pointed out, still coveting the rag
with Hymenoptera blood on it. He had it in his shirt pocket, probably an
attempt to keep it close to his heart.
"We need to stop them." Rosette said, holding a rag tight in her hand. It had
turned pretty green with the blood, and since she'd returned to human form, was
starting to mix with the normal red blood.
"Wow, you have red blood too?" Justin asked, amazed at everything Rosette could
do. She ignored him, and watched for a moment longer.
"If we can get one of those devices to work, we could use it to save seymour, he
might already have been eaten by now..." She added, then quickly changed her
tune.
"I mean, if we don't, we'll never hear the end of it if he does survive. At
least we can rub it in his face that we saved him."
The others agreed, and began to move. Keto stayed at the back, mumbling about
the conditions, while Wolfgang kept his eyes out for anything that could be
unsafe. As they walked around the edge of the room, they found a way down to
ground level. It seemed that the Terrapins themselves used the vents to get
around the ship. They all wondered why there were no guards at the entrances.
"Rosette, use your spider powers, you can sneak up on them!" Justin said eager
to see another display of her powers. She sighed and watched the group. They
all seemed to be going over a battle plan. Obviously their temporal devices
didn't work in unison, else they'd all have frozen time when they'd arrived, and
taken over the ship in a matter of seconds.
"This one on the end seems to be a bit weaker than the others." Keto mumbled.
It made him sound like someone who cared for the wellbeing of the crew, but he
soon changed his tune. "I can't make any ointment at this size... all of my
ingredients are bigger than me."
"Fine. I'll save everyone." Rosette said, disappearing around the corner.
Justin wouldn't do anything, as he was trying to get Rosette to use her
Hymenoptera powers, and the others were more interested in themselves than
anything else.
"vait." Wolfgang said, "ze beams in zis room are not strong." He continued,
looking up at the roof. "Ve might be able to weaken them enough to make zem
fall." but by that time, Rosette had already gone, leaving him to think of a way
to collapse the roof without her.
Rosette let herself transform into a spider when she was out of the way, leaving
her clothes on the floor. The transformation caused her to grow an exoskeleton
so fast that it would tear any clothing in seconds. Not being an exhibitionist,
she planned on being able to walk back to her room on two legs, rather than
eight.
She crept alongside the group of terrapins, in the shadows that flanked them.
They obviously hadn't read any of the "Evil Overlord" guide books, as they
explicitly said that lighting should cover all points in the room, even those
too small to hold a person. As she approached the weaker looking terrapin at
the end, she leapt, tearing through the belt that held it on, as well as its
hard shell. Grabbing hold of it with her more human looking hands, she pressed
the button to stop time.
"Woah..." She said, stopping to take it in for a moment. Everything around her
looked different... Almost black and white. The light that reflected from
surfaces to give colour was also stopped, leaving her in a personal time bubble.
Not knowing how long it would last while the belt was broken, she rushed back to
the mcdonalds, and towards the large man that was about to chow down on
seymour...
