"The week is long. The silver cat feeds. When blue meets yellow in the west." The group all changed together, reading out the whole phrase for the millionth time, hoping to discover some hidden meaning.
"Are you sure you're right?" Steve squinted at the code written out, "I mean, you translated it super fast, and—"
"Yes, I'm sure." Robin nodded, "Azalea knew some words and recognized some phonetic sounds, but the rest we went through tediously with the dictionary. We have checked and double checked."
"And triple checked," Azalea chipped in tiredly, "This is it."
The mall was entirely empty, and long since closed. The group dejectedly closed Scoops and headed out to the parking lot, the neon lights from the various shop signs reflecting off the tile ground.
"I mean, it just...it just can't be right." Steve insisted.
"It's right." Robin drilled.
Dustin stepped in stride with Azalea, "Honestly, I think it's great news."
"How is this great news?" Steve squinted, "I mean, so much for being American heroes. It's total nonsense."
"It's not nonsense. It's too specific. It's obviously a code." Dustin said.
"What do you mean, a code?"
"Like a super secret spy code."
"That's a total stretch."
Robin started siding with Dustin, "I don't know, is it?"
Steve glanced at her, "You're buying into this?"
"Listen, just for kicks, let's entertain the possibility that it is a secret Russian transmission." Robin told him, "What'd you think they were gonna say, 'Fire the warhead at noon'?"
"Exactly." Dustin said, pointing to Robin.
"And despite your disbelief, Steve, our translation is correct." Azalea added.
"We know that for sure." Robin nodded, "So, 'The silver cat feeds.' Why would anyone talk like that unless they're trying to mask the meaning of their message?"
Dustin smiled, "Exactly."
"Why would anyone mask the true meaning of their message unless the message was somehow sensitive?"
"Exactly!"
"So I guess that confirms your suspicion." Robin said with a smile to Dustin.
"Evil Russians." He finished.
Azalea glanced between them with an impressed smirk. They seemed to get along great.
"I can't believe I'm about to agree with this strange child," Robin giggled, "but, yeah, totally. Evil Russians."
