12 BLIND SIDE

CHAPTER 12 BLIND SIDE The P-rex looked confused by the strange creature at its feet. It had the body of a colorful pinata, and the head of an Alexander Bopp. "Uh, howdy," said Alexander. He gave a little wave. The monster roared, firing pieces of candy from its mouth.

P-rex被它脚下的奇怪生物弄糊涂了。 它的身体像一个彩色的皮纳塔，头部像亚历山大·波普。 “嗯，你好，”亚历山大说。 他轻轻挥了挥手。怪物咆哮着，从嘴里喷出一块块糖果。

Alexander's cheeks stung as he got hit with flying jellybeans. The P-rex raised its huge foot above what was left of the Battle Burro, ready to stomp. "ATTACK!" Alexander shouted to his friends. Alexander, Rip, and Nikki tore out of the costume. They rolled to the side, just as the P-rex's foot came crashing down. "BLINDFOLDS ON!" Alexander shouted.

亚历山大被飞来的豆粒软糖击中，他的脸颊刺痛。 这只P-rex把它的巨脚抬到战驴的残骸上，准备踩踏。 “攻击!”亚历山大对他的朋友们喊道。 亚历山大，里普和妮基撕下了戏服。 他们滚到一边，就在这时P-rex的脚撞了下来。 “蒙眼的!”亚历山大喊道。

Rip and Nikki pulled the bandanas down over their eyes. They each spun around three times. Then they ran in different directions, swinging their sticks like battle-axes. Alexander circled the P-rex, shouting orders to his blindfolded friends. Rip, swing left! I mean, right! Nikki— duck!" The P-rex didn't know whom to chase. It spun around, nearly swiping Nikki with its heavy tail. WHIFF! Rip took a swing and missed. "Guys!" Alexander yelled. "Just come— oof!" The P-rex snatched up Alexander.

里普和尼基把头巾拉下来遮住眼睛。 他们每人转了三圈。 然后他们朝不同的方向跑去，像战斧一样挥舞着棍棒。 亚历山大围着P-rex转，向蒙着眼睛的朋友们大声命令。 开球，左转！我是说，没错！尼基-鸭!”霸王龙不知道该追谁。 它转过身来，几乎用它沉重的尾巴刮到了妮基。 气息!里普挥了一挥，没打中。 “男人!”亚历山大喊道。“过来——走开！”霸王龙抓起亚历山大。

"Salamander?!" called Rip. "GAHHH!" Alexander cried out as the P-rex squeezed him in its claws. The monster lifted him up to its open mouth. The P-rex's breath smelled like the inside of a trick-or-treat bag: mint and peanut butter and sour grape and chocolate. Rip yanked off his blindfold. He ran over to the P-rex and began punching its pinkie toe. PLOFF!

“火蜥蜴？！”瑞普叫道。 “GAHHH !”亚历山大大叫起来，只见P-rex用爪子咬住了他。 怪物把他举到张开的嘴边。 霸王龙的口气闻起来就像不给糖就捣蛋的袋子里的味道：薄荷、花生酱、酸葡萄和巧克力。 里普扯下他的眼罩。 他跑向霸王龙，开始猛击它的小拇指。 PLOFF !

Alexander kicked the monster in the snout. Colorful bits of paper flaked off its nose. The P-rex looked back at him, frowning. Alexander shouted down to Rip. "This big loud monster really is just made of paper! We can shred it! Go get Nikki!" Rip found Nikki. She was still blindfolded, attacking a trash can. He led her back to the P-rex. The monster leaned down, about to grab Rip. "Hit it, Nikki! NOW!" Alexander shouted. Nikki gritted her fangs and swung her rake handle hard. WHACK! The end of her stick connected with the P-rex's belly. Then Alexander went flying through the air.

亚历山大踢了那怪物的鼻子。 五颜六色的纸片从它的鼻子上脱落下来。 霸王龙回头看着他，皱着眉头。 亚历山大朝里普喊道。 “这个大怪物真的只是纸做的！”我们可以把它撕碎！去找妮基！”里普找到妮基了。 她仍然蒙着眼睛，在攻击一个垃圾桶。 他把她带回到霸王龙那里。 怪物俯下身，正要抓住瑞普。 “打吧，妮基！”现在!”亚历山大喊道。 尼基咬紧牙关，使劲挥动耙子柄。 正常!她的棍子末端连着P-rex的腹部。 然后亚历山大飞向空中。
