The three of them stared at the looming figure of the gate in front of them. Mistoffelees pointed to it, "so you need me to get through there" he asked, "You can do that, right?" Rumpleteazer responded. "Give me a second," he said before walking away to explore the rest of the fence surrounding the house. The two sat in silence, "he's ditching us" Mungojerrie suddenly said, "we've been played a fool and he's ditching us!"
"No, your wrong"
"How?"
"I mean, he went out of his way to show up with the jacket on, he can't be ditching us, right?"
Before the conversation could go on any longer, the front gate opened up a crack, "You guys coming?" Mistoffelees asks. Mungojerrie stares at him, "Uh...yeah...we're coming" he responds with, trying to hide the disbelief in his voice. The twins walked through the opening and Mistoffelees closed it behind them, "now to find an open window" Rumpleteazer says, observing the walls of the house. "there!" Mungo shouts, pointing to a small basement window that was slightly open a crack. Rumpleteazer walks up to it and motions for the other two to follow, "alright, you two, help me lift this up" she ordered, "Wait" Mistoffelees said, "I can handle this, stand back" he orders.

Mistoffelees closes his eyes and holds out his hand.
"Is he whispering to himself?" Rumpleteazer quietly asks Mungojerrie.
"Sounds like it," he replies.
"Weird" they say in unison.
Suddenly the window fully opens with a jolt. Mistoffelees stands next to them, "Are we ready?" he asks, visibly nervous. The two cats look at each other and nod their heads before looking back at Mistoffelees, "Of course we are!" they both shout at the same time, "Let's go!" they say, grabbing both his arms and dragging him through the open window and into the house.
