"Guys, are you sure that this is safe?" Snowball asked nervously. The shapeshifting blob was very concerned. And for good reasons too. His fellow monsters Chloe and Ozone had come up with an escape plan that involved all of them. He was happy about getting to do something with them, even escaping Area Fifty Something.

He just wished that the escape plan didn't involve him being blown up.

"Snowball, it's perfectly safe," Ozone pointed out reassuringly. The cat headed man placed a weird looking cake in front of Snowball while he explained, "Just eat this and we'll take care of the rest." Still feeling nervous about this whole situation, the shapeshifter didn't protest as he grabbed the cake and shoved it into his mouth. His blue eyes widening in surprise, he asked, "Ooh, did you put carrots in that?!"

"Yep! Along with a few other things," Ozone answered. He whispered the last part of that to Chloe. The cat monster wasn't even looking at the mad scientist. Her green eyes were fixed on the yellow glow coming forth from Snowball's abdominal area. The shapeshifting blob saw that too. Shaking, he asked nervously, "Is that supposed to happen?"

"Yes, it's a good sign. Step one of Operation Blow Up Snowball is complete. Next, we have to... well... blow you up. Then we escape from this dreaded place," Chloe declared. Snowball's blue eyes widened in terror. Covering them with a pair of morphed hands, he whimpered, "I don't want to blow up!" Patting the shapeshifting blob on the back reassuringly, Ozone pointed out, "Don't worry, everything is gonna be okay. Trust us. Now, hold this string." With that, the cat headed man gave the shapeshifter the end of a long piece of string. Then he and Chloe quickly hid around the corner. Trembling, Snowball was reduced to a state of whimpering.

"Are you sure this is a good idea? I don't like the idea of blowing up Snowball. You know, this could count as first degree murder," Ozone mumbled, wringing his hands nervously. Rolling her eyes, Chloe took a match she stole and struck it against the wall. It caught fire. Lighting the end of the string they had, she dropped it on the ground as she retorted, "Snowball is indestructible! He can take it."

"Is this plan even gonna work?" Ozone asked his next question. A growl rumbling in her throat, Chloe hissed, "Of course it is! I've already wasted twelve years of my life in this prison! I'm not about to spend an eternity here!" Glaring at a poster of their warden on the wall, she continued, "Rooster might think these walls are impenetrable. But he has never seen a Snowball bomb before."

"Guys! I can't do it!" Snowball exclaimed. Chloe and Ozone whirled around to find the shapeshifting blob right behind them. And he still held the lit string. The flame was nearing the end. Horrified, Ozone fell to the floor and fainted. Practically jumping out of her skin, Chloe cried, "Snowball! Are you insane?! Blow out the fire! You're gonna kill us all!" Leaning forward, she frantically blew at the fire, trying to put it out. Her attempts were futile. Frightened, she covered her eyes, waiting for the explosion.

It never happened though.
