The nearly hairless face slowly turned towards us.
"What do you..... a human?"
"Yes sir this human, named Bruno, is here to assist us in getting the great book of Libros back."
Now looking at the old cat. I can tell why the book was stolen so easily from their hands. This cat wouldn't be able to run faster than a turtle in a race!
"What have you come here for Magico?"
"Equipment... lots if it"
This is a library Magico. Not a hardware store.
The old cat stands up and starts walking towards a large steel door. He licks the lock. Ew! The door beeps loudly before opening and presenting a new room. Inside were parachutes, wetsuits, bite-proof shark suits, rope, guns, even ice climbing equipment!
"Here we are"
Before u could even take it all in Magico had swept up the equipment with his paws and stuffed it into my backpack. It felt heavy and I knew my back was going to break after this.
"Thank you for your help!"
Mr Whiskers looked up and down before nodding his head at us. Magico turns around and signals for me to follow him out.
We walk back out of the large wooden doors and back into the lobby.
I stood frozen in a room filled with dead cats, body parts and blood.
"WHAT HAPPENED?!"
"They're back..."
"Who?"
"Dogs"
The sight made my eyes water and stomach turn. We had to move quicker otherwise this would be the end of all cats. Young and old!
