7 Spider Siege!

Chapter 7 Spider Siege! The cousins didn't need the invitation—they were already rushing inside. Dante shut and locked the door behind them. "Why did you let them in, Blanca?" the father calaca demanded. His wife gestured at them. "They pretty much invited themselves, Cano." WHAM! Something heavy collided with the door. Everyone jumped. The youngest calaca, a boy, started sniffling. "I'm scared!"

第七章 蜘蛛围城！ 表兄妹们根本用不着邀请——他们已经往里冲了。 但丁关上身后的门，还上了锁。 “布兰卡，你干嘛放他们进来？”骷髅爸爸质问道。 他的妻子对着他们摆了摆手。 “卡诺，他们差不多是自己闯进来的呀。” 砰！ 有个沉甸甸的东西猛地撞在了门上。 所有人都吓了一跳。 年纪最小的骷髅男孩开始抽鼻子。 “我好怕！”

"Don't worry, Cándido," his father said, hugging him. "The Queen of Bones just wants these living children." Dante gulped. "You're not going to give us up, are you?" The skeleton girl spoke up. "Well, she's our ruler. It's hard not to obey." WHAM! The spiders weren't letting up. "I thought Mickey Aguilar ruled 13th Street," said Ivan.

“别担心，坎迪多。”爸爸抱着他说道。 “白骨王后只是想要这些活着的小孩而已。” 但丁咽了咽口水。 “你们不会把我们交出去的，对不对？” 骷髅女孩开口说话了。 “唉，她是我们的统治者呀。 我们很难不服从她的命令。” 砰！ 蜘蛛们的攻击丝毫没有减弱。 “我还以为13街是米奇·阿吉拉尔说了算呢。”伊万说。

The calaca shook her head. Her bones made a sound like a marimba. "No. He's the Quiet Prince, but she's the Loud Queen. The one who rules. The tarantulas are her soldiers." WHAM! This time, a crack appeared in the door. Dante glanced at the windows on either side of it. They were boarded up, but— BASH! BASH! BASH!

骷髅女孩摇了摇头。 她的骨头发出了像是木琴演奏的声响。 “不是的。 他是安静王子，可她是喧闹女王。 是真正掌权的那个。 这些狼蛛都是她的士兵。” 砰！ 这一次，门上出现了一道裂缝。 但丁瞥了一眼门两边的窗户。 窗户都被木板钉死了，可——哐！哐！哐！

One of the tarantulas started hammering away at the boards. CREEEAAAK! The nails began to pull away from the window frame. Malia pointed at the girl calaca. "What's your name?" "Alba," she replied. "Okay, Alba," Malia said. "Is there any place to hide? Because those tooting tarantulas are getting in whether we like it or not."

有一只狼蛛开始砰砰地猛砸封窗户的木板。 吱呀——！ 钉子开始从窗框上被撬得松脱出来。 玛利亚指着那个骷髅女孩。 “你叫什么名字呀？” “阿尔芭。”她回答道。 “好的，阿尔芭。”玛利亚说。 “有没有什么地方可以躲呀？ 因为不管我们愿不愿意，这些烦人的狼蛛都要闯进来了。”

"Um, the attic?" Alba glanced over her shoulder. "There's also the garage." Ivan snapped his fingers. "Does the garage door open?" Cano, the father calaca, nodded. "Good idea. Leave that way. Hurry."

“嗯，阁楼？” 阿尔芭回头看了一眼。 “还有车库也可以。” 伊万打了个响指。 “车库的门能打开吗？” 骷髅爸爸卡诺点了点头。 “好主意。 从那边走。 快点。”

Dante raised a hand. "Wait! They're right outside. Malia's right. I can't believe I'm saying this, but let's hide until they break in." Right on cue, the tarantulas burst through the door and windows! They were huge and hairy, very scary and THEY SMELLED LIKE BEANS!

但丁举起了手。 “等一下！ 它们就在外面呢。 玛利亚说得对。 我都不敢相信我会这么说，但是——咱们先躲起来，等它们闯进来再说。” 就在这时，狼蛛们猛地冲破了门和窗户！ 它们个头又大，浑身是毛，吓人得很——而且它们闻起来一股子豆子味！
