Chapter 6 (Tatum's POV) 


"Mom, I'm sure she is ok." I said. 

"Mews!" My mother called out. 

"Mom, I'm sure they are gonna find her." I reassured. 

My mom's cat, Mews, disappeared yesterday and I think she ran away. I headed back inside the house because I was in the front yard. My mother and I found Dustin on the phone. He had just hung up the phone with some one.

"Alright, great news. They saw her wandering around Loch Nora." Dustin says. Loch Nora is a wealthy neighborhood around town. 

My mother chuckles through her tears, "How did the poor baby get out there?"

"Lost I think. So, me and Tatum will stay here in case any one calls again, you go help look." 

Mother nods and pulls Dustin and I into a tight hug.

"You can find her!" I encourage.

My mother pulls away and grab her sunglasses then drives off to go find her cat.  We smile and wave as she walks out the door.

As soon as she drives off I turn to Dustin, "Ok, will you please explain to me what happened to our cat?"

Dustin's sighs, "Ok, it's a long story.." 

Dustin begins to explain to me about the weird slug he found on Halloween and how it kept growing, and how it's probably one of those weird creatures Nancy told me about. And apparently he named it.

"Ok, so, Dart is in my room and all we need to do it trap him inside the storm cellar and figure out what to do with him." Dustin says.

I nod, "Ok, I'll grab some lunch meat and we can make a trail to lead him in the cellar."

Dustin agrees and we get to work. I grab the lunch meat out of the fridge and come back in the living room to find Dustin in various types of padding. 

"What the hell are you doing, boy?" I shouted.

"Protection, duh."

Dustin began to lay put the meat, and I went outside and opened up the cellar. He set up a train of bologna from his bedroom and the way through the house and outside to the cellar. 

"Ok I'll open the door and we both run outside and into the shed." I say. 

"No, I wanna open the door!" 

"Ok, jeeze. You do it then." I say with a grin.

Dustin opens his bedroom door and we dash out of the house. I run outside and opened the shed door for me and Dustin watch Dart through. The shed was made out of wood and there small gaps that me and Dustin could peak through.

We watched as the small creature walked out of the house and followed the trail of meat leading to the storm cellar. I panted as he got closer to the cellar that wasn't far from the shed. Dart hesitated as he heard the sounds coming from the shed. Dustin and I tried to stay calm but Dart kept inching towards us. Dustin sighsd and opened the shed door screaming at Dart and waving a hockey stick at him. Dart was caught off gaurd and ran in the cellar with fright. I quickly ran out and closed the two doors of the cellar before Dart ran back out. 

"Ok, go get me a lock for this thing." I said. 

Dustin gave me a chain with a lock around it I put it between the two handles so Dart couldn't get out. 

"Alright. Let's work out a plan to get rid of this son of a bitch." Dustin says.
