The latest chapter of the thrilling Dengler & Butts comes to us from Johannes K:

“Bus it” Butts was refilling his trusty 9mm Dr. Doctorate, bullets still flying past their cover “We don’t have time to wait for them. You ready for this?”

“Yes. And stop asking old man” Butts nodded, and the two mean leapt out, firing like madmen. The terrorists returned fire, ineffectually spraying bullets.

“The right” Dengler noted “They veer to the right” They took down three, four, when suddenly the masked men turned around and fled down the street.

Wheels screeching. Butts and Dengler turned around, immediately covering their eyes caught in the headlights. Even blinded, the sound was unmistakable. The bus was finally here.

The silver missile sped down the street, slowing down just in time to stop right in front of the dynamic duo. “Well I’ll be bussed” Butts sighed. “I told you, long as there’s a bus there’s hope”

The doors opened, hissing loudly, and out stepped the gruff Korean, shotgun on his shoulders.

Butts looked startled “What the bus? Where are the other guys?”

“Don’t worry” Dong said “The others have moved out as well. What has taken you so long anyway?”

“Well Dong, we’ve had a little trouble with the uninvited guests”

“Alright now” Dengler threw in “Let’s move on. Still got a few thugs to bring to justice”

Butt’s nodded, readying his gun once more “Let’s do this”

BANG! The street exploded in noise. Dengler fell over, screaming in pain, hands on his bleeding leg.

Butts whirled around, but he was to slow. The shotgun caught him on his chin, and Butts was sent flying on his backside.

“Bussing Bus” He coughed, wiping blood from his face “What you do that for”

Dong smiled, cocking the shotgun once more. “You don’t know a bit, do you? This is bigger than the bus, bigger than the moonbase. Unfortunately, you won’t be around to see the end of it.”
