|||Rat Smp: Poor Thing|||

No. . .
No, no, no!
Scott got himself caught and he was locked again in another cage until the other Rats could set him free!
But they were far away and Scott wasn't sure if they noticed if he was captured!
He curled up, waiting for someone to help him and hoped the humans wouldn't feed him to the cat or just kill him!
He didn't what he preferred better, a quick death by humans or a painful death by the cat.
"I KNOW IT WAS YOU!"
Scott shuddered violently, pressing himself as hard as he could into the corner of the cage as he tired not to cry,"I know it was you that destroyed the boiler! I swear, you rats are getting on my last nerve!", "I-I didn't do it. . .", Scott lowered his head, his ears dropping as he hid his face as he wanted to just cry.
"Janitor!"
A new voice entered the room, Scott dared to look up and saw the Mother approach the now shaking Janitor,"O-Oh, lady-I was just uh-Keeping the rats at bay-", the lady looked down at the cage, Scott didn't dare try and break open the cage and only tried harder to curl up in a ball.
"Janitor, I think you should take a paid week off, you may be taking this job too seriously and it's scaring the children. . ."
"No, no it's fine really I-"
"No, no. I'm insisting you do, it's fine really I promise."
Janitor lowered his head,"Alright. . . I'm so sorry. . .", so the Janitor left with his head hung low and leaving the mother alone in the kitchen.
"Oh, you poor thing. . ."
Scott's head shoot up seeing her now closer than before, she knelt down as Scott tried to back up more into the corner as he tired not to cry.
But she unclipped the latch and lifted the lid,"There you go. . .", she reached in and picked up Scott carefully, he squirmed in fear as he was taken out of the cage but all she did was sit him on her palm and fix his hat,"This is the only time. . . Scurry along quickly before he gets back.", so as she put Scott back on the ground, he bolted under the shelves hyperventilating and close to tears.
Looking back, he saw her linger for a moment before she picked up the cage and walked away, her footsteps echoed as she left the now empty kitchen.
. . .
"Scott!"
His friends raced to him, Owen reached him first and hugged him,"What happened, did he do something to you, we were too far away!. . .", "T-The. . . Janitor. . . He-He trapped me in a c-cage, I couldn't get out of a-and he thinks I'm the one that destroyed the boiler. . . Then the-the mom came in, told him to leave on paid. . . And she let me go. . .", the other rats looked at one another, was there another nice human or was this the only time she would show them mercy.
Scott hugged Owen, his breathing heavy and trying to digest what had happened or what COULD have happened if that lady hadn't walked in when she did.
"Come on, Scott. . . Let's go. . ."
Owen held his hand as they walked back to the attic.
Oh Scott. . .
You nearly get killed by Tubbo and Shubble, you accidentally shoot Owen and now this. . .
"I miss the farm. . ."
"I know. . ."
