the next day, mu's stadium was packed with cheering students. the greek council president stood onstage and addressed the crowd. "welcome to the final competition of the scare games!" she shouted.
then the oozmas came out in their team caps and sweaters. they waved, and the crowd went wild. as the rors took the stage, the greek council president said to the teams, "it's time to see how terrifying you really are — in the scare simulators!"
she indicated two scare simulators on the f ield, one for each team. competitors would go head to head. "but be warned," the president added, "each simulated scare has been set to the highest dif f iculty level!"
"the highest level?" squishy said 1.
mike felt nervous, too. but he took a breath and turned to his team. "okay, just like we planned. i'll go first, then don."
"hold on," sulley interjected. "mike's the one who started all this. and i think it's only right if he's the one who finishes it. i think you should go last."
mike looked up in surprise. but the others quickly agreed. "yeah!" said don.
"good idea," terry added.
"right on, man!" art said 2.
mike was flattered. "all right," he told his teammates. "don? you okay starting f irst?"
"sure," don replied. the oozmas formed a circle and stacked their hands. mike placed his on top, and they cheered, "oooooooozma kappa!"
don ran to the oozma simulator while reggie, a ror brother, raced to the rors' simulator. they waited for the light that would signal them to start.
"take it easy on grandpa!" johnny yelled from the sidelines as the light outside the simulators f 3 from red to green. it was time to go!
don carefully opened the door of the simulator and entered the dark room. the crowd watched on the stadium's jumbotron as don stealthily 4 the toys on the f loor.
meanwhile, reggie crept into his simulator room and immediately stepped on a rubber ducky. he 5 as the duck 6, and the sim-kid sat up in bed. reggie's plan was thrown of f, but he quickly recovered and roared!
"ahhhhh!" the sim-kid screamed.
at the same time, inside the oozma simulator, don's sim-kid was also sitting up. but don was clinging to the ceiling above. suddenly, don 7 down toward the bed, hanging by one arm as he roared! the sim-kid screamed his sim lungs out.
when reggie and don exited the simulators, don's scream can was fuller than reggie's by an inch! don looked at the rors and smiled. "good luck, kids," he said smugly. reggie was 8.
next, terri and terry walked up to the simulator door. their opponent for the rors was chet, who glared at the brothers. but terri and terry stayed upbeat. "let's do this!" they shouted as the light turned green.
inside the ror simulator, chet snuck up to the bed and let out a fearsome roarrrrr! johnny cheered as the scoreboard showed chet's scream-can results. it was going to be a hard score to beat.
inside the oozma simulator, the sim-kid sat up in bed. the kid 9 what looked like the 10 of a human dad 11 in the room. the sim-kid was about to lie back down when the silhouette suddenly split into a 12 two-headed creature. the sim-kid screamed in terror as both heads roared! their scare came in just below chet's!
next came squishy. the sim-kid was lying in his bed when his closet door slowly opened. the child looked over at the door, but now it was shut. then an 13 shadow passed the window. the sim-kid was about to lie back down when it saw squishy lying in bed beside him. the sim-kid screamed — and squishy's scream can f illed more than 14!
"wooo!" ms. squibbles cheered.
art entered the simulator room next. he was competing against a four-armed 15 monster from the rors. art carefully crept to the foot of the sim-kid's bed. then he jumped onto the end of the bed and struck a strange yoga pose. he warbled a creepy roar, and his scream can f illed up halfway.
that was a good score, but not great — and the oozmas were falling further and further behind. the team was disappointed, but they rallied as they realized it was time to bring out their strongest scarers: sulley and mike!
第二天,怪兽大学体育馆内座无虚席,欢呼声此起彼伏。希腊议会会长站在舞台上,对观众们大声喊道:“欢迎来到‘惊吓杯’的决赛现场!”
只见ok会成员们身穿队服,头戴队帽,走进赛场。他们朝观众们挥手致意,现场的气氛一下就被点燃了。这时精吓会也来到赛场。希腊议会会长对选手们说道:“今天你们要在惊吓模拟舱里展示你们真正的惊吓能力了!”
会长向观众展示了场上的两间惊吓模拟舱,每个队伍使用一间,选手需要以接力的方式进行一对一比拼。“有一点必须提醒大家,”会长补充说,“模拟舱的惊吓参数已经被设置为最高难度!”
“最高难度啊?”史乖宝不由得紧张起来。
麦克心里也十分紧张,但他深吸一口气,转过身对大家说:“听着,按照计划,我先来,然后是老唐。”
“等一等,”毛怪突然说道,“这件事是由麦克发起的,整件事也应该由他来结束。麦克,你应该压轴出场。”
麦克诧异地抬头看着毛怪,但大家很快就同意了。“好!”老唐说道。
“好主意。”泰锐欣然答应。
“就该这样!”阿拱热切地说道。
麦克有点受宠若惊,他冲队友们说:“好吧,那老唐你第一个上?”
“没问题。”老唐爽快地回答。ok会队员们围成一圈,将手掌叠在一起,麦克的手在最上面。大家齐声喊道:“ok会必胜!”
老唐跑到ok会队那间模拟舱前,精吓会的雷吉则冲向他们队的模拟舱。俩人摩拳擦掌,等待“开始”的指示灯亮起。
“给这位‘老爷爷’留点面子!”强哥在场边冲雷吉大声喊道。这时模拟舱的指示灯由红转绿,比赛开始!
老唐小心翼翼地打开模拟舱门,进入一间黑漆漆的屋子里,蹑手蹑脚地避开地板上散落的玩具。观众可以通过体育馆的超大显示屏,观看模拟舱里发生的一切。
与此同时,雷吉也潜入模拟舱房间,可是他很快就踩到了一只橡皮鸭玩具。鸭子发出“吱吱”的声响,床上的智能小孩立即坐了起来。雷吉吓得倒吸一口冷气,原本的计划泡汤了。但他很快镇定下来,对着小孩发出一声吼叫。
“啊——”智能小孩惊叫起来。
与此同时,ok会队的模拟舱内,床上的智能小孩也坐了起来。但老唐正紧贴在天花板上。突然他一个俯冲,单臂悬挂着发出一声怒吼,智能小孩被吓得高声尖叫起来。
一轮结束,雷吉和老唐走出了模拟舱。老唐看到自己罐中收集的惊叫量超出雷吉整整一英寸,便看着精吓会笑道:“祝你们好运了,孩子们。”雷吉完全被惊呆了。
接下来轮到泰瑞和泰锐兄弟上场了,他们的对手是喳喳。兄弟俩丝毫不顾喳喳挑衅的目光,斗志昂扬地喊道:“给他露一手!”这时绿灯亮了起来。
精吓会队的模拟舱内,喳喳悄悄来到床边,发出了一阵令人毛骨悚然的吼叫声。记分板上显示出喳喳尖叫收集罐的成果,这个惊吓量着实很难超越,强哥不禁拍手叫好。
ok会队这边,智能小孩也坐了起来,他瞥见房间里的人影,还以为站着的是一位人类父亲。当他准备躺回去时,人影突然变成了长着两个头的怪兽,赫然出现在他眼前。怪兽的两个头同时吼叫起来,小孩吓得魂儿都没了。兄弟俩得分也不赖,只和喳喳差一丁点儿!
接下来出场的是史乖宝。智能小孩正躺在床上,房间里壁橱的门缓缓打开了。小孩朝那里望去,门却已经关上了。这时,窗户上掠过了一道怪异的影子。智能小孩正准备躺下,史乖宝却冷不丁地躺在了他身旁。小孩失声尖叫起来,史乖宝的尖叫收集罐一下装了一大半惊吓量。
“太棒啦!”史太太大声欢呼起来。
下一个轮到阿拱上场。精吓会队则派出一只长着四条胳膊的甲虫怪兽。阿拱蹑手蹑脚地来到智能小孩的床脚边,接着跳上床尾,摆出一个奇怪的瑜伽姿势。他用颤音发出一阵令人毛骨悚然的吼声,他的尖叫收集罐一下子就装了一半。
阿拱得分不错,但还远远不够。ok会已经被精吓会远远甩在了后面。大家感到十分沮丧,但是一想到接下来要出场的是他们团队中两个强有力的“大腕”——毛怪和麦克,大家又充满了期待。
