Note: Sorry for uploading so late, but I’ve been busy with school so…
There was a wooden cat sitting on the edge of a cliff. In the water, there was a large sleeping whale.
“Tread lightly.” The wooden cat whispered. “The whale beneath can easily escape its peaceful slumber and go on a rampage you don’t want to experience.”
“I only want to break the walls.” Angie whispered back.
“You want to break the walls? Well, my name is Pinocchiat, and I can help you. Sorry about the wood floating in the water. The cthulhus (a Cthulhu is a mythical creature) tried to build a glass bridge spanning all of Region Atlantis, but the wooden supports they were using got destroyed by Bane, the whale sleeping underneath. Since then, they have given up. Oh, there’s even one over there. Somehow, he’s still on his sailboat. I could get him out of there so that you can use his sailboat to get around.”
“It’s no use. He’s smaller and lighter than me. Besides, I would also need to put pets in it. It wouldn’t survive. However, I have a way to do this.”
Angie put on her wetsuit and took out an orange rectangle from one of its pockets. She inflated it into a large dinghy, jumped in along with her lasso, and used a wooden plank to row herself out.
“Hey, Pinocchiat. Do you, by any chance, know where an anchor might be?”
“Why don’t you ask the blokes who live in the houses over there?” He pointed back towards Piggy Play Pen.
Angie visited Butaichi’s house and found an anchor and rope in the attic.
“Oh, that anchor? My dad owned it. You can have it if you want. All it needs is a good polishing. You can have the rope as well.” Butaichi said as she was pulling it down the stairs.
Angie took out her toolkit and hammered the wood planks into 3 triangles, which she then hammered on top of each other. She then cut off half of the rope, cut that in thirds, and split one third into 3 parts, which she tied to each end of the triangle. She tied another third of the cut rope to the parts tied to the triangle, and tied the anchor to the other end using the last third. She also attached a crank, also from Butaichi’s attic, to the rope tied to the anchor. She would be keeping this structure tied to her dinghy so that she could keep it from drifting away. She then dove into the water to start rescuing some pets.
There had always been a question that had puzzled Angie since she saw her first underwater wall: who or what was responsible for putting the pets who were trapped in the underwater walls inside bubbles? It was a good thing that those were there, but what was responsible for their existence? Surely the Pet Snatchers might’ve intended to let them die eventually, so that option was eliminated.
The routine was that every time Angie rescued a pet, she would let it float to the surface. If she broke the wall, she would be able to bring the pets to the dinghy, where their bubbles would pop; however, if she couldn’t break it, the pets would be sucked back into the wall and they would stay there until she finally broke it. After getting all the pets on the dinghy, she would push it back to shore, where they would be taken to Butaichi’s house. He and Angie would then give the pets warm baths, bundle them in towels and then blankets, and feed them before releasing them.
3 weeks later, Angie saw an underwater staircase. She followed it to discover a town made of colorful shells. She then saw a fish wearing a crown and pearls coming towards her.
“Welcome to Region Atlantis. I am Queen Nevla, and I rule alongside King Lionel. He rules the land, and I rule the seas.” She and Angie then surfaced so that the latter could start talking.
“Your Highness,” Angie started. “I wish to continue my journey to find my parents, and I need your permission.”
“You may continue your journey on one condition: you must clear these walls. When the walls were brought into the world, I used my innate magic to create bubbles so that the pets could survive. However, these bubbles are hard to maintain, and every time an underwater wall is cleared, it becomes a little easier to maintain the bubbles.”
“Don’t worry, I will.”
15 days later, the road of Atlantis Adventure had finally been cleared and Angie was more ready to move above water again. Queen Nevla rewarded her with a shell horn.
However, Angie was proven wrong when she saw Pirate Paradise. There was a ship, but all the walls were in the water beneath the ship. She decided to blow her horn to call out some of the ship’s crew.
“Hell-o-o-o-o!” She hollered. “Maybe you’re missing some crew members!” Right after that, a pirate koala snatched her horn out of her paws.
“Hahahaha!” The pirate koala chuckled. “Let’s see you get the horn back, you puny lil’ kitten!”
“Oh yeah? I’m more than you think!” Angie retorted. She took the other half of the lasso and pulled her horn out of the pirate koala’s clutches. She made him follow it until she got him to follow the horn into the water. She untied the horn, roped the koala out of the water, climbed up the ship’s mast with him in tow, and tied him to the top of the mast. Angie saw the ship’s captain come out.
The pirate she had tied to the mast was merely wearing ripped blue shorts and a black bandana, but the captain was wearing a pirate’s hat, a coat, and pants.
“Regis!” He yelled at the pirate tied to the mast. “How dare you let a measly cat get the best of you? Killer and Jack, untie Regis and toss him into the brig!” Two burly koalas untied Regis and dragged him into the ship.
“Well then,” the captain remarked. “It’s just you and I now. You sure are skilled with that rope. I told them to untie Regis so you could get it back. If you’re that good with that ol’ lasso, you deserve to have it.”
“Thank you. My name’s Angie, and you speak rather politely for a pirate.”
“I’m Jean. I usually speak like most pirates do, but since you’re not from around here and I liked what you did there, I decided to treat you respectfully. Now, we can accommodate you on our ship for as long as you need. We’ve got maggot-infested hardtack biscuits and eucalyptus leaves for rations. That savvy with you?”
“Maggots? Ewww. I’m allergic to eucalyptus leaves as well, so…”
“Oh… you’ve got your own rations, right?”
“Yes, but… considering the time it takes to break walls, it might not be enough… Wait! I’ve got an idea!” Angie rowed her raft all the way back to land and rowed back with some sticks, nylon, a hook, a small knife and a plastic bottle.
“What are you doing and where did you get those things?” Jean wondered.
“I can make a fishing rod out of these things. I looked in the environment, dug through the trash, got some things from Butaichi’s attic, and I can use the maggots from those hardtack biscuits as bait!”
“Blimey! You’re so clever! I’ll leave you to build that fishing rod, and then you can get some hardtack and start catching your own fish!”
One night later, Angie started fishing. In the middle of her session, Jean came out. However, this time he was wearing an apron and he was carrying a bucket full of cleaning supplies.
“When the walls came down, most of my crew was caught in the skirmish. Since then, I became the one to scrub the deck, because I’m the only one who’ll do it.”
“That’s pretty sad. Well, I guess you think you’re lucky that I came to help you find your crew.”
“Yeah, I guess I’m lucky…”
19 days later, the crew had been joyfully reunited and they were singing pirate songs once again. Jean pushed through the crowd and approached Angie.
“Hey Angie, you remember Regis?” Jean whispered.
“Yes, isn’t he the pirate whom I outsmarted?” Angie whispered back.
“Yeah, he is. When the crew came back, we all agreed to have him walk the plank for incompetence.”
“What? I’m not watching that!”
“Okiedokie then.”
“Avast ye, mateys!” Jean shouted to his pirates. “Looks like it ain’t savvy for our new cat friend to watch Regis here get fed to the fish! Just give her the booty and let ‘er leave!”
2 burly koala pirates carried a treasure chest to her. Upon inspection, it was filled with gold coins she could convert into silver pawns and a telescope in the middle of it all. She thanked the pirates then set off for Miracle Mirage.
Miracle Mirage was a desert with a majestic Arabian castle erected upon it. All that was there was an enormous genie lamp on the sand in front of the castle, and no pet in sight. The lamp rustled.
Angie peered into the spout of the lamp. “Is anyone in there?”
A gecko popped out of the lamp, calm and chipper as if nothing had happened at all. “Well, greetings, my friend. I’m Genko and welcome to Miracle Mirage. We have carpets for those traveling to other worlds, as well as overnight stays for those in transit.”
“I’d like to stay in one of the rooms, but I’m afraid my stay might be more than overnight. You see, I’m trying to break the walls here and it usually takes 2 weeks or so to clear out your area.”
“You wish to break the walls?” Genko confirmed. “That’s great indeed. Just for that I’ll give you a good room and board for one week free of charge. After that you must pay.”
Genko then led Angie into her room, where she saw her psychic pendant (see Chapter 3) glow brightly. She decided to take a risk and ask Genko an extremely strange question.
“How well do you know these rooms? Is there any hidden place big enough for a pet to stay in?”
“Well, I’ve heard rumors that the wall behind each mirror is hollow, but don’t account me for that…” He then exited the room.
Angie looked at the mirror above her dresser and decided to test Genko’s theory. She took a pickaxe and threw it at the mirror. The mirror shattered immediately, but the pickaxe just kept on going before sticking itself into a wall with a THUDD!!! She turned on her torch and ventured inside.
At the end of the tunnel, she could see where her pickaxe had gotten stuck. However, that wasn’t what really surprised her. What actually caught her attention was a black-and-white cat curled up in a corner. This cat looked like Princess Catarina, but she had extremely long and unruly blonde hair growing out of her.
“Thank…you.” The cat wheezed. “Get me… out of here… please.” Angie dragged her out of the tunnel and laid her on the floor in her room.
“Are you hungry?” Angie asked.
“Yes…” The cat gasped.
“I’ve got to tell Genko.” Angie said.
Angie went to Genko and told him to come to her room.
“My, my.” He remarked. “I’ve never seen the ruler of Mystic Path in this shape. The mirror’s broken as well! Whatever happened to you, Queen Abigail?”
“Queen Abigail?” Angie asked.
“Why, yes. I don’t know how she got here, but she’s gone through a lot! Explain yourself, Queen Abigail!”
“Genko, she’s much too weak to speak for herself, but I can tell you everything. I asked you the question about the mirrors because my psychic pendant was glowing. Earlier in my journey Queen Abigail asked me to find her mother and she gave me the pendant to help her. When I saw the pendant glowing here, I decided to ask you about hidden compartments in the room. I then followed your clue and that’s how I found her.” Angie explained.
“Well, I see. Maybe once you feed her for a few days she can speak up.” Genko then left the room once more.
Three days later, Queen Abigail decided to tell Angie her story.
“First of all, thank you for rescuing me. You see, I was in the Pet Unity Conference as usual. However, something invaded and we all had to evacuate. The invaders were shooting bombs at the Court in such a way that the debris would fall and trap us. My mind was too panicked at the time to use any psychic power, because as you probably know, you need focus to do any psychic spells. The other rulers and I were trapped, and the invaders shot something at all of us, and then I blacked out. After that, I woke up in the hidden tunnel, beaten up, most likely by my invaders. Those invaders probably raided the supplies out of me, and I guess they took the gown and tiara I was wearing because those can fetch for a lot of money. There I was, sitting in a tunnel without any food or water, until you found me. Thank you for taking care of me, but I don’t think I’m ready to come back yet. I’ll leave on the day you do.”
11 days later, Genko led Angie and Queen Abigail outside, to the carpet area.
“Queen Abigail, here is your carpet.” Genko ushered her to a royal blue carpet. “Just sit, tell it you want to go and it’ll take you there, swiftly but smoothly.”
Queen Abigail took her seat on the carpet. “Carpet, take me to Minstrel Towers!” She commanded before being whisked away.
Genko then motioned for Angie to sit on an orange carpet. “Here you go, Angie. Just tell the carpet where to go and you’ll be there in no time flat. Safe travels to you!”
“Carpet, take me to the entrance of Enchanted Pastures!” She and the carpet flew away towards Enchanted Pastures.
*************************************************************
Meanwhile, at Minstrel Towers…
“Princess Catarina?” A meerkat butler called. “Princess Catarina? You should wake up and put on your best clothing, for your mother has returned!”
“My mother… is back?” Princess Catarina replied groggily. “I don’t believe!”
“You’d better believe it. The ceremony will start soon, so get ready now.”
Princess Catarina looked at her wardrobe for a few seconds before settling on a royal blue silk dress with roses embroidered on it. She put on her tiara and a corsage, and went outside.
She passed by Ram-Cain polishing scissors made out of pure gold, and she could see that all the civilians of Mystic Path were there. She took her position in front and the ceremony was commenced. 2 sheep held up the train of Queen Abigail’s dress, which was purple with gold sequins sewn into it. A fanfare was being played by the minstrels. Behind Queen Abigail, the golden scissors had been placed on a cushion carried by goats. There was also a tiara paraded in its glass case by rams.
The High Priest, a goat, took the tiara from its glass case and held it up. “I, the High Priest of Mystic Path, re-coronate Miss Abigail as Queen of Mystic Path. After five long years, we at last have found our real monarch.”
“Long live the queen!” Everyone cheered.
However, the ceremony was far from done. The newly-crowned Queen Abigail levitated the scissors and used it to cut the blond hair from the tower. She then concentrated her powers on to the pile of hair on the ground, and it was immediately incinerated. The citizens cheered once again before the Queen made her first announcement in 5 years.
“To all citizens of Mystic Path, three hot air balloons will come in soon. Please assemble three lines to prepare for the balloons’ coming. Those will take us to Party Pavilion, where we shall have a grand celebration.” The citizens assembled into three lines and before they knew it, the hot air balloons were already there. While the other citizens were being ushered into their balloons by the ram guards, Queen Abigail and Princess Catarina were already next to each other on the first hot air balloon.
“You know,” Queen Abigail started. “I actually came home a few days ago. I hid out for a few days to prepare for this. I ordered instruments, reserved the hot air balloons and the Party Pavilion, and did a million other things for this! Another thing: do you know who rescued me?”
“Who?” asked Princess Catarina.
“A cat named Angie broke me out. I’ll make a toast to her later.”
“Angie? Wait, I remember something! She asked me for permission to continue a journey of hers and I accepted. I also gave her a psychic-detecting pendant to detect if she’s close.”
“Wow. Well, she certainly did a good job rescuing me. She’s pretty far from here as of now.”
