Chapter 12: Statues

The two heroes looked at the last game, as Adrien opened the bottom latch.

"Only one more game left." Marinette says.

They then walked downstairs to see a faded painting of a very long caterpillar but it had legs and wires body was blue and purple.

"Hey is that the monster the tape was talking about?" Marinette said.

"I don't know, maybe?" Adrien says.

They followed the long caterpillar until they saw its head. It was a Pug-like dog face.

"Ugh, creepy." Plagg hissed as he was disgusted by it.

And when they got to the door, they saw it was locked.

"Great now what?" Plagg asked.

Then Adrien turned see a door, they step inside and see a store gray room, passing by they saw a poster with the same caterpillar pug hybrid: hungry to learn.

They then see a caterpillar pug as a cutout with a press button next to a power charger. Marinette pushes the button as Adrien charges the green hand and hits the receiver.

Would you like to play with PJ?

It sounded like something from Scooby-Doo. Then they all looked up as they heard a buzzing sound, shark hits the blue hand and it lifts him up. He find a kinetic charger, jumped down wrapped around two poles. Hits the charger and receiver again, gets up and charges up a button.
They then went back and the door to statues, once they got inside, they saw it was a mini maze of castle wall. There was a giant pit of blue foam with rings above to grapple on to and a maze of tunnels to crawl into with three openings: easy, medium, and hard. This was it. The FINAL game.

"This is statues, I was expecting something creepy." Marinette says as they examined the room.

Then the tv came on, startling them:

welcome to statues, this advanced obstacles is designed to test your physical endurance and strength, the rules are simple.

Marinette crosses her arms.

"Oh, how so?" Adrien said.

The lights will turn off, you could move through the obstacle course at this time.

"Not a problem for me as Cat Noir to see in the dark." Adrien says.

However, they then looked at the tv with shocked faces.

When the lights turned on you can look around but cannot move.

"Aw" They whined.

You may move again once the lights turn back off, the lovable PJ pug-a-pillar will follow you.

"Whoa? What?" Adrien says.

"Well that's creepy." Marinette said.

If PJ reaches you, your test is over, that's all good luck.

After the video finished, they gatherer around to regroup.

"Ok Adrien, if what I learn from playing these games is that these toys will do whatever they can to attack us, so we got to keep our guard up, stay alert and be careful, for all we know this next toy could be just as dangerous as the last one." Marinette finished just in time for Mommy Long Legs to appear in a big window up above them.

"And you're right."

"Ahhh!" Marinette screamed as they all turned to see her.

"It was always so sad to see the kids go"

Adrien holds Marinette as they both stared at Mommy Long Legs. Adrien glared at her while Marinette just looks shocked.

"They call me Mommy because I was the closest thing they ever had to one."

Marinette looks to see Adrien glaring at her, she then looks down at his hand, she reaches out to hold it.

"You're not a mother, you're just some four legged monster." Adrien pulls his hand before Marinette could touch his hand and makes a fist at Mommy Long Legs.

"But they come for the games and never come back, they left Mommy to die alone."

"Well I don't blame them, you probably trapped them and force to hold them against their will." Marinette said.

"Mommy didn't deserve that."

"Oh yea she did" Plagg said.

"If anyone deserves to die alone, it's you four" she points a finger at them, threatening them as they glared at her.

"That's not going to happen." Adrien said.

"If you want us dead, you're gonna have to try harder with your ridiculous games." Marinette says as she gets in front.

"Exactly, PJ will take care of that, have fun" she leaves laughing sinisterly.

They fate opens and they enter inside.

"Ok we'll stay together." Marinette says as Adrien nodded.

"Tikki, Spots on!" Marinette shouts.

[There should be a GIF or video here. Update the app now to see it.]

"Plagg, Claws out!" Adrien shouts.

Both them then transforms into their alter ego, Ladybug and Cat Noir.

The game began as they split up, then when the lights turned on, they stopped and scanned the room as they heard something moving. Then when they switch off, they went back to walking. Then the lights went on, Ladybug held on to Cat Noir when they heard a strange noise again.

Ladybug and Cat Noir crawled through the foam pit when the lights turned off but then stopped and look around when the lights switch on.

"Hey look it's PJ!" Ladybug pointed out.

"Huh" Cat Noir turned around to see PJ coming after them.

"Huh, he doesn't look so tough." Cat Noir says as soon as the lights went off, they moved.

They followed the rings, Cat Noir uses the green hand to grab on one of the rings and he hoist him and Ladybug up and swings them across from the pit, he looked back to see PJ climbing onto something.

When the lights went on, Ladybug and Cat Noir stopped, then they turned around to see how long PJ was when he was climbing.

"Whoa now that's a big fella." Cat Noir says.

"Come on we got to keep going." Ladybug says as the lights went off.

They were almost done with the pit, so they scuffled faster. They soon made it out, then the lights came on and they turned to see PJ climbing faster. There were three tunnels, they all went in the first one. And when they crawled out, they turned to see PJ was nowhere to be found. But then Cat Noir saw its head popping out of the tunnel. It was getting closer.

"Uhh... Milady, I think it's getting closer", Cat Noir whimpered.

Then they had to go through another pit of blue foam but this time it has yellow platforms in the pit to jump from one to another. They stopped and turned to see PJ was going inside the blue foams, they they began to move faster as they start to panicked. PJ was starting to pick up the pace, then Ladybug made a realization. Mommy Long Legs was gone, she wasn't in the control room. They got out of the pit and saw a cave in.

"Oh no we're trapped!" Ladybug says.

"What do we do now? PJ is getting closer!" Cat Noir said as he sees him getting closer.

"Quick Adrien, take us up there" Ladybug points out to the handle hanging up above the window.

He hoist them both up to the glass as Cat Noir uses his power.

"CATACLYSM!!!" Cat Noir shouts as he breaks the strong glass as they landed in the control room.

"Ok let's try to find a way out of here" Cat Noir says.

They all looked around and all they saw was just chairs, paperwork and blood on the floor. Ladybug then looks down to see PJ crawling up to them.

"Adrien..." she whimpered, he looks down then he takes her hand as he runs.

Cat Noir jumps down with Ladybug into the tunnel. They don't know where the tunnel might take them, or where they might go.
