Chapter 18

Datboi stumbled into the forest, his eyes drooping from lack of sleep. He longed to run back and grab his unicycle, but he thought Knowmore might exile him if he wasted anymore time. He could hear the screeching of Mahboi and Trappaw fighting this mystical being, odd coloured and rogue, and he shuddered.

They burst through the bushes and attacked, the rogue thrown off his paws by the mass of cats. Moonmoon slunk back, heavily pregnant, and wandered towards the injured Trappaw, staring blankly at him as he struggled against his wounds. She was a little sadistic, and it put the apprentice on edge.

Datboi pounced, leaping onto the rogue and shredding at him, angered and finally awake. He put up a fight, but he was no match for the green-furred tom.

"What do you want?" hissed the rogue, then shook his head quickly. "Never mind."

In that moment of distraction, Datboi got was on top of the rogue, preparing to do a trick move and knock him unconscious. Feinting right and striking right, he was shocked as the rogue dodged away from his blow.

Slowing down slightly after his missed blow, Datboi wondered, How did he know I was going to do that?!

As Knowmore rounded on the cat and leapt for his head, the blue-and-green rogue ducked under her and rocketed up, sending her flying into the air and collapsing, winded.

Datboi watched in shock. How..?

Running angrily toward the rogue, Datboi lunged. His claws met with only empty air as the strange tom somehow ducked out of the way and kicked Datboi in the chest. 

Datboi collapsed, the wind leaving his lungs.

Moonmoon stared at the rogue in terror from her spot next to Trappaw and the unconscious Mahboi.

"Lovely day, isn't it?" commented the strange cat.

Datboi struggled to his paws, knowing better than to attack. "Who-who are you?"

"The omniscient being known as THEWORLD."

"Omni-what?" asked Moonmoon, still frozen.

"All-knowing," explained Theworld, as if speaking to a kit. 

"You look weird," muttered Datboi, a bit salty over his defeat.

"And you all don't?"

"Fair point," muttered Knowmore, glancing down at her own rainbow pelt and struggling to her feet.

Datboi looked from Theworld's blue and green pelt to his own green one. He didn't reply.

Knowmore took a breath and opened her mouth to say something.

"And yes, I do believe that knowledge is important and that you are hot." Theworld now sat meditatively in the center of the clearing, his front paws touching and his back legs crossed underneath him.

Knowmore's eyes widened and she fell back down. Trappaw promptly passed out.

"W-what did you do to--" began Moonmoon weakly.

"Mahboi?"

"Yes...is she going to be ok?"

An awkward silence ensued, and Moonmoon started to dig herself into a hole. "I'm a nice werewolf ok"

"Anyway, would you--" Knowmore began.

"--like to go to your camp? Of course I would," finished Theworld.

"About Mahboi and Trappaw..." started Datboi, gesturing at their limp bodies.

"Yes, let's go to camp," said Theworld loudly.

Shrugging, the Datboi and Knowmore sling the two unconscious cats over their backs and begin to escort Theworld to the camp, Moonmoon following.

Started by someone and finished by Ember :)
