My 9/11

Lost Cat

----ZOEY POV--- ~~~~~~~

I've lived with Palmer for a month now. We've done lots of running around New York looking for new things to see and do. Palmer and me agreed that the best thing to do in the city was to go round and round in those circle doors.

Today we were going to do that. We walked around the city till we got to one. It was a hotel and the circle door thing was gold on the rims. To the sides of it was normal doors. That meant nobody could get angry if we used it. Palmer and me entered. There were mirrors on the inside. Fancy. We started pushing the the door

After like, 20 minutes of that we got out. The world was spinning under my feet. I tried to take a step but I fell. Palmer was equally dizzy and collapsed too.

"New record! We've been in there for 13 minutes!!" He said goofily smiling His eyes were looking every where. We probably stayed in there too long. We carefully got up and stumbled our way home. Everything was still spinning.

We got home around eight ,and were greeted by Danger's sweet purr. I rushed towards the kitchen when we got in and got a bowl.

I dumped a handful of candy bars and popcorn in it. Mmmm. I walked into the living room, Palmer was watching Teen Titans on our TV.

I had found it sitting around with a "FREE" sign on it a three weeks ago. I gave it to Palmer and with a couple of tinkering and hammering he fixed it.

I plopped down by him on the couch. We both hungrily gobbled up the popcorn at the same time. Weird coincidence.

I randomly said between chewing" You know Halloween is coming up soon, in only four days! We should decorate the house and make costumes!"

"Sure, that would be fun," he said, his eyes not leaving the screen once.

"We could make the house scary looking and put traps around it so we could keep out little kids. Especially the ones that toilet paper houses. Plus, we won't have to give up our candy," I said.

"Ya," he said not paying attention. He must really like Teen Titans.

"I'm going to dress up as......Edward Scissor-Hands!" I said shouting into his ear to get him to listen.

"But your a girl! Edward is a 'boy',"

"Fine, you can be him,"

"Ok then, you should be a werewolf, you look like you should be one or maybe a plain old wolf..... I don't know, your choice,"

"I'll be a wolf!" I said excitedly. "Good thinking," I finished. I have him a quick hug. Wait, why did I just do that? I blushed. Man, I can be really stupid at times.

Like nothing had happened (phew) he said "Great! This is going to be a fun Halloween!" He smiled. We watched TV until ten. Must've been a Teen Titan marathon, we saw a billion episodes! I said good night to Palmer and went up to bed.

I woke up the next day and started getting ready for Halloween pronto. I only had four days and to me it wasn't long. I went down to the stores in NY.

I had some money on me because I was a bit worried now a days on stealing. I had one hundred bucks on me that I got from Palmer, don't ask where he got it from. I was more noticeable for some reason (I thought) so I wanted to start paying.

Plus, I was going to get a job soon enough. I wanted to be a role model for people, I was getting older too. Maybe a cop? Eh, too young. My personality was defiantly changing.

I started at a store that was called "Halloween Town". I walked in and began looking for decorations for the house first. I picked out a skull that you were supposed to hide and it would pop out and say "BOOOO! Happy Halloween!" In a evilly way.
