Now I shall continue my story...
Note: refer to the post entitled "New Blood" in order to understand the following sequence of events.
A voice called out from behind. I was too afraid to turn; all of a sudden, the big black box in front of me ceased to animate. I looked straight ahead... I could see a reflection from the glass face of the black box. A giant figure was looming right above me, in his right hand was a strange rectangular object with buttons which i figured he used to change the state of the black box.
"Hello you!" he called out again. I mustered all the courage that I could gather and glanced above. What I saw shocked me to my very bones! A creature with a large head unproportionate to his torso and limbs looked down at me. He smiled and mentioned a few words in a foreign tongue. When he was silent, I took the liberty to say "F*CK YOU! I was freakin watching TV! Why the hell did you have to turn it off?!!?" And with that, the glass face of the black box illuminated with lights and sounds... I saw Jack Sparrow again and all was good.
As I was slowly repositioning myself to enjoy the show, suddenly the giant creature grabbed me by my tail and tipped me over. He spoke to me again. This time he said, "My name is Imran, what's yours?" I casually said, "Mine's Mary Poppins, can you put me down now before I beat the sh*t out of you?" He did not seem threatened by me. In fact, he threw me into the rubbish bin. BIG MISTAKE! Little did he know... I have what you humans would call "magic". Well unfortunately you humans do not seem to possess this power because humans do not have the ability to use the full capacity of their brains. For me however, I am different. I have changed. I am no longer a normal mouse. I can harness powers that other pathetic life-forms cannot. I can even fart at will.
With all that mentioned, I used my magic to set Imran's pants on fire. He ran about in desperation then fled to a place behind a door and locked it shut. I heard a splashing sound. I figured he had put out the fire. I sincerely hoped that I did not cause him any reason not to celebrate Father's Day.
The door swung open. Imran emerged with a rather stern face. He thought that he could frighten me, I was no longer afraid of this creature. I was ready for anything that he had to offer. He took something from within the room and threw it at me, I fell but got up again smelling better. The fella threw a bar of soap. I retaliated with more magic, I caused the lavatory to flush and splatter water all over him but no, he did not give up. He grabbed hold of the shower head and wanted to hose me down but I ran away into a little hole under the kitchen cabinets.
If only I knew the perils that awaited me in that forsaken dark, black hole.
I shall continue in my next entry.
