The Cat in the Hat Murdered That [completed]

Sally

I woke up next to Nick, covered in ash. While I was sitting up I looked at my brother as he coughed himself awake. The Cat had fooled us once again and I was not happy. I really thought that we had found him.
My brother looked at me and said, "What are you thinking?"
"What do you mean," I replied smoothly
"You had this look on your face like you were going to hurt someone. We have to get back to camp to get supplies." Nick started walking forward.
I did want to hurt someone. Something. The Cat in the Hat needs to pay for what he did to my parents and all the other people that he killed. I started to walk with my brother towards our temporary hideout, about one mile away.

When we arrived at the small camp, Nick said that he would go out to the truck stop a few blocks away to look at the news. When he left I started to pack up our sleeping bags and cut down the rope we had put on the trees surrounding the camp. There were trees all around that made an ark with low branches. I sat on the dirt and thought about how the Cat could've gotten away this time, we were so close. As I got up and brushed the dirt off of my camouflage jeans, I stopped thinking about the Cat. While I was wrapping the rope around my bag I saw my brother running towards the camp.
I started to tell him,"Hey, I finished pack--."
"I know where the Cat is going next,"Nick said. I stood there, dumbfounded, waiting for him to continue.
