《C.A.T.s in Space》Chapter 5: Grangr
Advertisement
Again she seems to be in a familiar place, It's dark, cold and.....
the Darkness consumes the light and sound, yet again until a light came in and said. "I promised you a happy ending."A random voice said it again felt like it's repeating itself over and over whenever Michelle Dies, the bright light appears blinding any vision, it suddenly showed numbers in dark red ...........811 LEFT.
(Michelle's POV........)
My mind is blank...... I can't think of anything except for the number in front of me, 811.
I remembered that I asked a dark monster Named Granger, to kill me, he did, now I need to do something if I want to save them, from that scary Man and his Soldiers, I must turn this event.
"Umm... Hel lo! Are you ok?" I suddenly snapped back to reality, hearing a man calling me, standing on the hallway nearby my bedroom, I saw Mavin standing in front of me looking concerned. "Are you ok? You've been staring at me, for a quite while, did I hurt you?", I remembered this scene now, this is the part where I bumped into him while I was heading to the toilet, but then I felt like not going to the bathroom.
"Oh, I'm really sorry for hurting you back there..... I thought you guys are bad guys." He said to me, he actually felt sorry, I could see him scratching the back of his head waiting for my response.
I responded "it's okay, people tend to freak out so...I forgive you." I added a smile so I could cheer up his mood.
I was planning to head out to, Grangr's cave just up ahead.
Mavin passed by me saying goodnight, but I didn't respond due to my focus on my task.
Instead of entering the bathroom, I entered the kitchen, Plius secretly had hidden her Pile of chips somewhere, where Freya will not find them.
I checked inside the cupboards but no luck, I also checked behind the fridge and under the sink.
"What are you doing?" I suddenly jumped hearing Plius' voice, she is just standing behind the counter where I was digging.
"Ummm... I'm Playing hide and seek with Freya, can you help me find a good hiding place." I lied, trying not to let figure out what I'm doing.
Plius just sighed and smiled at me, "well if your hiding From Freya then ill help, but don't tell anyone."
She guided me inside the storage room, it is full of crypto boxes, she isn't planning about putting me inside the cryo boxes? Is she? she moved the boxes in the side and removes some kind of metal floorboard.
"Hide here, she never checks the back of the room." I have to do it or I'll be suspicious of her.
I hid under the metal Floor board, I fit inside and there seems to be more space, dark actually seems to be the engine room,

"Don't go deeper inside ok it's dangerous and Gremlins will get you there," Plius said.
It actually freaked me out hearing that we have Gremlins under the floor Boards, I had a nightmare of Gremlins taking my Candy and calling me names like, "coward", "weak", "stupid".
I tend to ignore those words but they sometimes don't affect me at all.
"You'll be safe just stay in that position, ill call you if Freya Gives up." Plius leaves the room and gave a thumbs up, leaving the door closed.
I'm actually now in a dark room and only neon blue colors glow on the crypto boxes,
I need to plan where should I go.
I suddenly heard a crunch below my foot, I jumped making me land on my butt, I used my glowing bracelet to see who or what I stepped on.
It was actually a bag of potato chips sticking out of a black blanket.
'No wonder she bought that large blanket for.'
I flipped the blanket and I saw a pile of chips, Cheese, Spicy, BBQ, even my Favourite Chips, "sweet and spicy DangDing" it's not exactly chips, but it's full of peanuts.
Suddenly Felt someone touched my Shoulder, I ducked down on instinct and my body trembles in fear, I thought that Plius is Lying But it's actually true.
It forced me to turn around but I kept my face down and my eyes closed.
"Hey Michelle, what did I tell you?" It's actually Plius looking at me in disappointment, I was actually so scared I hugged Plius, she felt my heart beating on my chest predicting that I was actually scared.
Plius grabbed a Dang Ding bag and gave it to me, "don't tell it to anyone that you find this stash." She said I shook my head denying the offer, I told her if I could have the fish chips instead, she did and so she gave me a bag of it.
"Thank You Plius." I actually had a problem getting out, Plius assisted me and went on my way, trying to "find a new hiding place."
Im in the Dining room.
I got my Bracelets and the Fish crackers now I need is to exit the ship.
But I need someone to go with me, it cant be Plius because she'll instantly say no, it cant also be Freya because she'll also say no.
Who could it be......
'I know who!' I thought of it knowing who will I bring in my journey.
I Exited the room and directly go to Plius' room, I slowly opened the door seeing if both of them is asleep.
I easily got noticed by Mavin, laying on his bed while his both hands are behind his pillow where he lay and his one knee up.
"Oh! hey!" He quickly sits up from his bed looking at me in curiosity.

I looked around the room and seems that Plius is nowhere to be found.
"Is there something you want?" Mavin asked, I entered the room and stared at him in a serious look, showing his dominance.
It made him uncomfortable, it looks like its working.
"Umm.....I-I need to Drink water, mind if I grab a drink," Mavin said continuously looking into my Terrifying glare.
"What do you want?" Mavin asked again.
"Come with me," I said
"What?"
"Come with me!"
"What? Where?"
"Just come with me!" I grabbed his arm, trying to pull him out of his bed, "Ok!, Ok! I'll come with you." He finally jumps off his bed and walks by my side.
We exited the bedroom and went to the hatch beside the lever, "What are you doing any-" "Shh!" I quickly shushed him.
I pulled the lever making a loud "vrrrrrr" luckily that Freya is a deep sleeper, and I don't know about Plius but I know she's already asleep.
"We're going outside?" Mavin asked,
"I'm just going to meet a friend outside," Michelle replied.
"But it's dangerous! The Guild said the night is where the "Dark Creature" lurks."
"Don't worry I got this." I sprinted out of the ship holding the fish crackers around my left arm, "Hey! wait for me!" Mavin Follows making the hatch behind him slowly closing.
(Meanwhile in the control deck....)
Plius watches both of them heading out in the dark forest making her quickly grabbed her rifle and leave the ship.
(She's not allowed to Wake up Freya Because she'll just follow and make lots of noises outside.)
Narrator's POV.........
Michelle and Mavin walk through the forest walking faster than there usual speed, with only Michelle's glowing Bracelets as their source of light.
"I'm sorry if I asked but why didn't you bring a Flashlight?" Mavin knew somethings wrong, without a strong source of light "the creature of the Night" will surely come for their blood.
"Its because his afraid of having a bad tan."
"What?, a "Bad tan?" I don't think Flashlights work that way." Mavin still expected that shes talking about her "friend".
They suddenly heard a rustle they both stopped to look around there surroundings,
They heard it getting closer and closer just until a bright light shined.
It was Plius holding Her Lamp.
"Plius?!" Michelle Shocked in her face, Plius Suddenly Grabbed Michelle's arm And pulled her in a unexpectedly strength ,"Wait! Plius! Just wait a Second!"
Michelle Grabbed Plius' Hand that is around her arm struggling to remove her grip. "We're going home." Plius said still her hand grabbing her arm, "Wait! Plius! OW! You're hurting me! Plius! stop!" Michelle begged but gave no attention to her, Mavin Just Looked away in embarrassment and Plius keeps pulling her further away from her destination.
Michelle struggles to free herself from her grip but no chance.
Michelle kicked Plius' crotch making her lose her grip, "Gah!" Plius fell on her Knees feeling her agony between her legs, while for Michelle She runs as she lets go making her through the forest.
She ran and ran not going to stop until she's far away from Plius and the others.
But Then until she bumped into the sign, she saw a black-coated man that seems to be figured as death.
Michelle entered in without hesitations, the cold air surrounds every corner in the cave, her vision is limited, every step causes an echo and only the fear stepping on the scariest creatures in the night's territory.
Michelle continued going deeper to the cave, her foot is sore due to running a lot and her heart rate speeding up.
She felt something sinister behind her, it made her heart skip a beat and the pressure rises.
But she knows she can do it, she turns around seeing red glowing eyes looking down at her.
"Grangr," Michelle called out his name making her orange bracelet Glow slight brighter making the monster fear it.
*Growl*("What? How did you know my name human?")
Michelle didn't reply except offering him fish crackers. Granger's Eyes glow seeing of what he saw.
*ROAR*("Fish crackers! Give it to me!")
Granger tries to snatch it but Michelle hesitates to give due to his bad manners.
"First we need to talk!" Michelle said.
*Grr?*("Talk? Wait! You can understand me?)
Michelle nodded making Grangr Roar in Joy.
*RAAAWWR!!*(for 158 years I finally have a human understand me! mind if we start being friends?)
"Talk!" Said louder making her patience thin.
*whimper*(ok ok you don't need to be Mad.) Grangr looks down.
It was a slow greeting and confusing explanations, but Michelle manages to explain everything.
*Grrr*(I see you have a previous life when you're friends are raped by Black Scar's Men, and you came to me because I told you to meet me in the next lifetime, so I Can save your friends, is that what you explained?) Grangr looks at Michelle.
Michelle looked back at his red eyes.
"Yes."
(Note: I'll be switching the "rawr" to a sentence.)
-I'm sorry, but I can't.
"Because you'll have a bad tan?"
-Yes, but there's another reason why, my Face is a living nightmare.
"Well, no matter what you look like, you'll still be my Best friend."
-hmm.... I see, you'll promise that you'll not scream.
Michelle nods, she Brightens the Bracelets enough to see its terrifying look.
Her eyes widen as her heart grows faster and what she sighted is .........
A Pomeranian.
To be continued.........

8 910The Dungeon Calls for a Sage
Archimedes was the ego behind one of the most powerful dungeons ever created. He grew and developed his halls, filling them with powerful monsters and beasts, over the course of thousands of years. He was a grand structure of ten thousand floors which even heroes had failed to defeat. However, an Evil God had come from another world, calling himself the Demon King, and a party of heroes were sent to do battle with it. Through their victory, they obtained enough strength to breeze through Archimedes' dungeon like it was nothing. Forseeing the end of his life, and realizing how pointless his pursuit of power had been, Archimedes destroyed himself, taking the heroes down with him. Still, Archimedes felt despair that he had lived a worthless life as something as pitiful and futile as a dungeon. Sensing his regret and potential, the voice of the world presented Archimedes with the chance to start anew and live a more meaningful life. Thrilled and hopeful for the first time in eons, Archimedes accepted the offer, only to be reborn again as a dungeon core with not a single room or monster to his name. Just what was the meaning of this?! Archimedes couldn't figure out what the voice of the world was thinking. Somehow, he would have to draw a sage into his dungeon to figure it out for him. _______________________ DCS is now a member of the WriTEr's Pledge, which means I have sworn to see it through to a satisfying end.
