8. Break in Two Electric Boogaloo

CHAPTER 8 BREAK IN TWO: ELECTRIC BOOGALOO "NOOOOOO!" screamed Tippy. He ducked his head beneath the cockpit of the Robo-Suit and disappeared down a stairwell into the intricate innards of his intimidating invention.

“不！”蒂比尖叫起来。 他把头伸到机器人战衣的驾驶舱下面，消失在楼梯间里，进入了他那令人生畏的发明的复杂内部。

Captain Underpants grabbed the arms of the Robo-Suit and began to pull. Harder and harder he tugged until, one by one, the rivets in the Robo-Suit's thick steel belt began to pop. The harder Captain Underpants yanked, the more the Robo-Suit began to break in two. The shrieking sounds of twisting metal reverberated around Tippy as he traversed the crumbling staircase. His only chance was to make it down to the lower half of the Robo- Suit before Captain Underpants pulled it apart.

内裤队长抓住机器人战衣的手臂开始拉。 他越拉越用力，直到机器人战衣的厚钢带上的铆钉一个接一个地爆裂。 “内裤队长”拉得越用力，机器人战衣就越断成两半。 蒂比穿过摇摇欲坠的楼梯时，金属扭曲的尖叫声回荡在他周围。 他唯一的机会是在内裤队长把机器人服撕开之前，把它弄到下半部分。

With no time to spare, Tippy dashed into the Robo-Pants, just as the Robo-Suit broke in two.

蒂比没有多余的时间，冲进了机器人裤，就在这时，机器人服断成了两半。

"You haven't seen the last of me!" Tippy yelled, as he closed the emergency hatch on the Robo-Pants. Then, Tippy set his Tinkle- Time Travelometer to "Five Years Ago" and pressed the "Away We Go!" button. Suddenly, sparks of blue lightning began emanating from the Robo-Pants. The massive bolts crackled loudly and grew more and more intense until finally, Tippy and his Robo-Pants were enveloped in a giant ball of blue lightning.

“你还没见我最后一面呢！”提比喊道，关上了机器裤上的紧急舱门。 然后，提比把他的叮当时间旅行计调到“五年前”，按下“出发！”按钮。 突然，蓝色闪电的火花开始从机器裤中射出。 巨大的闪电噼啪作响，越来越强烈，最后，蒂比和他的机器裤被一个巨大的蓝色闪电球包围了。

A blinding flash turned the night sky into day for a sliver of a second, and then it was all over. Tippy and his Robo-Pants had disappeared, leaving only an empty mound of ice behind. The crazed inventor and his terrifying trousers would never be seen again after that night. They would, however, be seen exactly five years before that night... But before I can tell you that story, we have to go back even further...

一道炫目的闪光在一瞬间把夜空变成了白昼，然后一切都结束了。 提比和他的机器裤不见了，只留下一堆空冰。 这个疯狂的发明家和他那吓人的裤子在那晚之后就再也没有出现过。 然而，他们会在那个夜晚之前整整五年被看到…… 但在我告诉你这个故事之前，我们必须回到更早的时候……
