Chapter 11

Though the poodle doesn't want to be involved in this current situation, Larry frantically places Noodle against the door.

"You have to do something, boy! Hurry!" he shouts in panic.

Falling onto the rug, Larry continued to transform.

Not knowing what to do, Noodle simply stands there with wide eyes.

"Your Lordship!" Jake was heard saying, looking out the window and apparently seeing someone.

Noodle goes over to the window and is shocked to see Mr. Nezzer approaching the house, knowing he wants to kill Larry!

Knowing he has to do something fast, Noodle picks up the rug Larry is on a bit in his attempt to get Larry out of the house.

Larry was nearly finished transforming by the time Noodle got to the kitchen. He couldn't even fit through the doorway now because he's getting larger.

Making the poodle feel annoyed, Noodle saw Larry the Were-Dragon gobbling up all the veggies in the fridge, making a mess in the process.

The poodle smiled brightly, getting an idea just then.

Outside, Mr. Nezzer was loading his blaster with a gold bullet.

"No one kills 'em like I do," Mr. Nezzer muttered with a grin.

Hearing a whistle, this made the Were-Dragon turn around in surprise to see a female Were-Dragon walking towards him.

"Oooh! Hoo, hoo, hoo!" the Were-Dragon chuckled with a beaming smile.

With the female Were-Dragon actually being a costume with Noodle as its wearer, he began rushing out of the house.

"Hoo, hoo, hoo!" the Were-Dragon chuckled again, eagerly chasing after the disguised Noodle.

In his attempt to get inside the house, Mr. Nezzer tries pushing it down. Meanwhile, the Were-Dragon manages to catch up to Noodle, grab the costume's arm, and kiss its hand several times, accidentally leaving a bit of drool on it.

The Were-Dragon began sticking his snake-like tongue out at the costume with a bright smile.

Annoyed, Noodle made one of the costume's arms slap the creature in the face.

"Oooh! Hoo, hoo, hoo!" the Were-Dragon simply chuckled again, grinning. "Love it."

---

Managing to go into the house & into the backyard, Mr. Nezzer noticed the Were-Dragon's silhouette in the distance running off. Grinning evilly, Mr. Nezzer fired his blaster at the Were-Dragon, making him fall to the ground!

The sound of the blaster's shot echoed throughout the whole town, which made all the citizens gasp in horror.

"It's done," Pa Grape commented while Petunia looked down sadly.

"Allow us to share in your moment of sadness, Petunia," Pa Grape told her also sadly frowning.

Making everyone joyous, he then said, "Let's start the show."

---

This made Petunia sadly sigh.

Grinning, Mr. Nezzer approached the shot creature. However, as soon as the zucchini lifted the head of the beast, it surprisingly tore right off!

"What the-?" a shocked Mr. Nezzer cries, wide-eyed.

Noodle slowly peeks out of the costume in a nervous way.

"You... you little pesky pooch you!" Mr. Nezzer exclaims, furiously aiming his blaster at the poodle.

Just then, Stanley is heard barking, making Mr. Nezzer turn to see a broken fence with a set of tracks apparently leading to where some fireworks are being launched.

"Of course, the veggie competition," Mr. Nezzer realizes, knowing now where the Were-Dragon is heading.

Deciding to make sure Noodle doesn't try to stop him, Mr. Nezzer shoves the poodle into a cage.

"Your loyalty sure is moving, but unfortunately, you won't be anymore. Come along, Stanley, everyone wants a good show & I'll be the one to give them a swell show for sure."

Making Noodle sigh, he tries to open the cage, but he sadly can't.
