Chapter 12

CHAPTER 4 The Real Pigeons sneak off into a laneway to recover. They are battered and bruised. "Squabzilla will do anything The Stickler asks- so long as they're together, says Grandpouter. "What can we do, Rock?" But Rock shakes his head. "Every time I HELP it seems to go wrong."

第四章 真正的鸽子们溜进一条小巷休整。 它们个个鼻青脸肿,浑身是伤。 “只要和较真佬待在一块儿,鸽斯拉对他的要求向来言听计从。”鸽爷爷说。 “洛克,我们该怎么办?” 可洛克摇了摇头。 “每次我出手帮忙,好像都只会把事情搞砸。”

Behind them, Squabzilla emerges. She has disguised herself as a wall. "Hi Rock!" "Wow," says The Stickler. "Squabzilla really does have all your PIGEON POWERS!" "See!" says Rock. "Even my MASTER OF DISGUISE skills are making things worse!"

它们身后,鸽斯拉冒了出来。 她把自己伪装成了一堵墙。 “嗨,洛克!” “哇哦。”较真佬说。 “鸽斯拉真的拥有你所有的鸽子超能力啊!” “你看吧!”洛克说。 “连我的伪装大师技能都在帮倒忙!”

Suddenly, Jungle Crow and Megabat knock The Stickler off Squabzilla's shoulder. The three villains wrestle down the street. "You need to pay us properly!" yelps Megabat. "Otherwise we'll tell Squabzilla about the CLONING SERUM's side effects, says Jungle Crow. "And how it will turn her mind to mush and make her lose all her memories. "Shhh!" hisses The Stickler. "I obviously shared too much of my plan with you!"

突然,丛林鸦和巨型蝙蝠冲过来,把较真佬从鸽斯拉的肩膀上撞了下来。 三个坏蛋在街上扭打起来。 “你得给我们足够的报酬!” 巨型蝙蝠尖叫道。 “不然我们就告诉鸽斯拉克隆血清的副作用。”丛林鸦说。 “告诉她血清会把她的脑子变成浆糊,让她失去所有记忆。” “嘘!”较真佬嘶声制止。 “我显然把我的计划跟你们说太多了!”

Squabzilla doesn't hear because she has started flying. That's all she really cares about. But Rock HAS heard. And he has an idea. He zooms up to Squabzilla. "Squab," he says, gently. "I know you're an evil sidekick today. But I still want to help you." SLURP

鸽斯拉没听见这些话,因为她已经飞起来了。 飞翔才是她真正关心的事。 但洛克都听见了。 他想到了一个主意。 他嗖地一下飞到鸽斯拉身边。 “小鸽。”他柔声喊道。 “我知道你今天当了坏人的跟班。 但我还是想帮你。” 咕嘟

A few minutes later, The Stickler closes another deal with Jungle Crow and Megabat. "So anything that sparkles like a diamond is rare and expensive?" "Yes!" "Let's go- I know a place full of disco balls!" Then he flies off, looking for Squabzilla. He finds the Real Pigeons on the gazebo roof. "Did you see where my Squabzilla went?"

几分钟后,较真佬和丛林鸦、巨型蝙蝠又谈妥了一笔交易。 “所以像钻石一样闪闪发亮的东西都稀有又值钱,对吧?” “没错!” “走吧——我知道有个地方全是迪斯科球!” 说完他就飞走了,去寻找鸽斯拉。 他在露台屋顶找到了真正的鸽子们。 “你们看见我的鸽斯拉去哪儿了吗?”

"She's gone flying," says Rock. "I suppose you want her back before the serum's side effects kick in?" "It's true, she'll forget everything soon," grins The Stickler. "Then she'll follow my orders like a mindless zombie forever- and she'll never discover the ANTI-CLONING serum back in the lab." "You tricked poor Squab!" yells Rock. The Stickler shrugs. "She won't believe it if you tell her. I'm just lucky she's not here to hear this!"

“她飞去别的地方了。”洛克说。 “我猜你肯定想在血清副作用发作前把她找回来,对吧?” “没错,她很快就会忘掉所有事情。”较真佬咧嘴笑道。 “到时候她就会像没脑子的僵尸一样永远听我命令,永远发现不了实验室里的抗克隆血清。” “你居然骗可怜的小鸽!” 洛克大喊道。 较真佬耸了耸肩。 “就算你告诉她,她也不会信的。 我可太走运了,幸好她不在这儿,听不到这些话!”
