BOOK 3

CATVILLE

Muppet wandered through SMHQ on that wintery morning, Catville had a snow shower last night, though it had melted from snow to water so cats all over catville could not go out that day.

“Why won’t he listen, he is Mike! I don’t get it, why did he bash his head on a Portal-door 3000? Those are EXPENSIVE! He knows that! Wait…” Muppet realised something

Mike awoke to a beeping noise, how did I get here, one minute I’m on a lift and the next I’m in a hospital! Mike thought to himself, he heard some voices.

“He has a case of amnesia! Why won’t you listen to me!?”

“He has a concussion”

“Concussion, ok that is THE WORST EVER DIAGNOSES EVER! IF MIKE HAS A CONCUSSION HE would have amnesia as a side-effect, ok I guess you’re right”

“I told you”

That’s why I can’t remember anything about coming here Mike thought

“Well, I must give him another concussion!”

“NO DON’T!”

The stone hit Mike’s head, Mike saw his life flashing before his eyes, birth. Parents, sister, school, high school, cathood, adoption, collar, lazy Sunday, cats, deep hole, suit, king of cats, catville, T.O.X.O., Barbers, life, death, living poop, general dog, ESMHH, lift, explosion, grass, field, blood, sheep, Muppet, fish, dream, memories, door, concussion, bed, talking, stone, light, death.

Mike awoke in a hospital bed, he saw Muppet,

“My Heeeaaadd!!” Mike whined,

“Hey, Mike, Buddy, do you remember me?” asked Muppet

“Muppet, I think”

“YES! HE REMEMBERS ME! THE STONE WORKED!”

“What Stone?” Muppet took a deep breath after he heard Mike say that, and he then let it out in a long, ear-peircing scream…

“WHHHHHHHHHYYYYYYYYYYYYYYYYYY!!!!!!!!!!!”

It was so long and so loud that reports claim to have heard it from a good ten miles away. Mike decides to say something.

“The last thing I remember is me banging my head-”

“YES! THE STONE DID WORK!” Muppet Interrupted

“As I was trying to say…” Mike said Matter-of-Factly “The last thing I remember is banging my head on the wooden door-thingy” Muppet sat in a corner a cried to himself about this, Mike replied by saying “Hey, Muppet, it’s ok, we’ll have to find another way.”

/////////////////////////////////////////////

As Mike and Muppet were walking down the road, they saw a big blimp, massive even, with a dog painted on the front, Muppet knew this meant only one thing…

THEY were here… 

Muppet had run out of time, so he fled...

THE END OF THE WORLD…………………………………………….

/////////////////////////////////////////////

Mike watched as a large shadow descended over Catville, the airship, as vast as nothing any Cat had seen before, was descending to land.

The airship released a plank and coming down was a dog wearing an army hat followed by a dog with two tails and five legs and was about two meters long that looked like it was about to die. The weird dog spoke first in a frail voice,

“Make… way for the almighty General Dwog E. Eisenhower” the so-called General Dwog spoke next, in a loud - Booming - voice

“I AM GENERAL DOG -Dwog, I mean- ELDERALD EISENHOWER!!! YOU SHALL SIT DOWN TO ME, CAT SCUM.”

Mike decided he had enough of this Dwog (According to him that’s what the thing was called), Mike had to fight back. “You shall not touch these innocent cats! They haven’t hurt you have they!” Have They? Mike thought. This could be a war, and Mike could be fighting on the wrong side

“They have, Multiple times, but they didn’t start this war, neither did we.”

Oh my good Tuna Mike thought

“I am the head of ESMHH, and I tried to get rid of you, Super Mike. So this time I must do my own dirty work.”

Oh no, I’ve angered him Mike worried

“So Mike, you wanted this to be like a fairytale, yes? Well, here’s my happily ever after.” and with that General Dwog lunged at Mike, capturing Mike in the process.

/////////////////////////////////////\///////

Gouhh, these sewers reek! Muppet thought, hearing the commotion from above ground, the screaming, the crying, the capturing. It’s sad really, wait… I feel like I’m being watched, OH NO! My thoughts are being read! Don’t think don’t think. No that’s thinking! Wait, I know who’s reading my thoughts! The reader!

No don’t break the fourth wall

WHO’S THAT??!!

Your subconscious

Not now…………

Hey readers! Want to know a secret

Nononononononononononononononononononono!

When Muppet was four…

NO! ANYTHING BUT THAT ONE!

He went to the toilet

NONONONONONONONONONONONONONONONONO

He picked up his poo…

DON’T YOU DARE!

He went to his parents…

DON’T FINISH THAT

And

NO!

He

DON’T FINISH THAT SENTENCE!

Snuck it -

OKAYMYSEGMENTISFINISHED!

… 

Are They Gone? Thought Muppet’s Subconscious

Why did you have to say that? Muppet thought,

Comedy.

Your job is for dreams.

See you in your sleep

Okayyyyyy! Muppet then realised he was at the end of the sewer system

“Why did they make the system like an emergency exit out of the city?” Muppet then saw the paintings, he realised that he wasn’t in the sewers, but an emergency escape tunnel in case of HIM

/////////////////////////////////////////////

Mike awoke in a prison cell.

“You’re awake.” said a voice beside him, Mike looked for the source of the voice, it came from a cat, much older than Mike, the cat looked about twenty-five years old (That’s one-hundred-and-sixteen in cat years)

Mike managed to pluck up some courage to ask “Who are you?”

The Old Cat spoke, “I am someone who you know, but don’t”

“What does that-”

“It means I am Living and Dead simultaneously”

“Still what does-”

“I’m a memory, Mike”

“How do-”

“DON’T ASK, listen”

“Okay, I was-”

“DON’T SPEAK!”

“...”

“Good, He is awake as well, I will unlock the door for you, if you wish?”

“...”

“If you wish?”

“...”

“FOR THE LOVE OF TUNA SPEAK!”

“Yes”

“Pardon?”

“Yes”

“I can’t hear you!”

“YES!”

“P-P-P-P”

“Yes Please”

“Thank you.” and with that Mike dashed out of the cell and ran down the corridor and jumped onto the stairs, he tried running up the stairs, but he was running up them for five minutes, and when he turned around, he was back where he started!

So he ran up the stairs again.

/////////////////////////////////////////////

Muppet reloaded the rail gun, the EMP battery was low so Muppet called to Mac for a Water Pistol. Mac threw the waterarm over to Muppet. The water pistol had no ammunition, so Muppet ran to the river and opened the waterarm to reload.

Meanwhile, Mac was reloading the Rail Gun and was preparing the ray gun, Muppet had to return with their most powerful weapon!

Muppet ran over to Mac and aimed to take a bullet from the dogs for Mac

It has begun, I shall split this world in two! HE Thought, and as he did that, two universes (timelines if you will)  came from the original universe (timeline) that Muppet, Mike, Mac, Dwog, ESMHH, and others lived in, one where Muppet takes the bullet, the other where Mac takes it instead, our Universe (Not the reader’s universe, but the one where our story ends) resides with Mike and Muppet, Not Mike and Mac.

Mac rolled onto the ground, bleeding from the bullet wound.

“I’ll be ok, just fight them… dogs” Mac struggled to talk, coughing up blood, wheezing, dying.

“Nonononononononononono! Don’t die on me, Mac!” Muppet Panicked

“Mate, I see the light, it’s my time!” Mac wheezed

“Don’t you dare die on me Mac, we’ve almost won the battle!” Muppet’s eyes were welling up.

“No, it’s the natural way of things, I… I…”

“Nononononononononononono!!” Muppet was crying, performing CPR on his friend’s failing organs.

“ACK! HAK! I’m dying, Muppet”

“But you’re our Techie!”

“Find a new one!”

“At least say hi to Lotty for me” Muppet was sobbing now, tears streaming down his face, a pool that was roughly an inch deep had formed underneath them

“I… will…” Mac was crying too now.

“Mac,”

“Yes?”

“I’ll see you soon”

“You… too…” and with that, Mac took his last breath and parted that world, Muppet went from sobbing to vengeful sobbing, Muppet pulled out his Emergency Knife and lashed out on the dogs, killing them as if they were tuna being eaten by Muppet, the dogs fell, Muppet shouting all the while,

“YOU… KILLED… MY… FRIEND!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!” he was panting from running and crying, Muppet knew that he had to take down General Dog. at that moment, Mike burst out of the airship, screaming in terror as a mech came out from the airship seemingly after him, the mech took out a comically oversized baseball bat and hit Mike in the head with it, Mike was out cold.

While that was happening Muppet had been charging up the experimental rail gun, it wasn’t very stable but it was ridiculously overpowered when Mac was alive… when Mac was alive, he worked on it so that they could win any battle. The rail gun was about to explode, so Muppet aimed at the mech…

And fired.

General Dog fell out of the mech, Muppet picked him up and stabbed him with his knife, Muppet whispered in his ear

“This is for killing Mac”

General Dog fell to the ground…

...dead

EPILOGUE

It had been one year since General Dog’s death, Muppet was celebrating (still) Mike was recovering from the baseball bat, everyone was happy.

In the dump, a dog paw reached from the wreckage. It had been commanded by HIM to kill his killer.

Muppet was in grave danger.

Mike is unable to help.

Mac is still dead.

Dwog is alive.
