Everyone gathered in the kitchen for tea and an early breakfast. There is a door to the kitchen which they closed so scramblers could be used and they could talk freely. Annelie whispered to Baldwin and he then told Candace and Angel to go with Annelie and Elsa. Off they went to Elsa’s bedroom, Annelie had another scrambler to use there too. “This device will let us know if there is a camera here as well,” she told Elsa. “A camera?,” she asked, “in my bedroom?” “Yes, there was a camera in each of our rooms,” said Candace.

Sure enough, there was a camera, hidden in the ceiling light. They moved a dresser over so Annelie could stand on that and reach the light. She removed the light and disconnected the camera. “Th, that is scary,” said Elsa nervously. Apparently Elsa could often hear voices, which she thought were real ghosts. Everyone listened carefully. Meow,meow.=Voices in here. They opened a large old wood wardrobe and put a listening device on the back.

Sure enough, they heard voices clearly. “What are we going to do with all those people?”, said a woman. “They will leave, don’t worry,” said a man, “and if not, we will kill them all one by one. We have the advantage of knowing this castle and every passage hidden within it.” “I still do not like it,” said the woman, “even using their friends has not scared them away.” “They will give up and leave,” he said, “and it will be soon. Wait until they get word from their home, and that will be within half an hour.”

“I wonder what that means?”, said Candace, “do they know where we live?” “They do if Darren is working with them,” said Angel. “They are a bunch of bullies trying to push us around,” declared Elsa, “that won’t happen to me!” “That is a big change Elsa,” said Annelie, “we will help you, so do not worry.” Meow,meow.=Yes, we help, and look after you. You help us big with this. “Thank you Muffin,” said Elsa, “somehow I am not so worried now.”

Meow,meow.=That good, you very nice human people. Elsa smiles at Muffin, then suddenly she stares. “I must be going insane or something,” she said. “Why is that?”, asked Annelie. “I just thought I heard Muffin talking,” she said, her eyes still wide. The others laughed. “You did hear Muffin talk,” said Candace, “her and MC are special cats, and they will let certain people hear them speak, that means she trusts you.” Elsa just looked at the girls, then at Muffin. “That is real?”, she asked. “Yes Elsa, it is real,” said Angel.

Meow,meow.=I go tell human Baldwin what we hear. They let her out and watched as she ran down the hall to the kitchen. “I do not like letting Kara be alone so long watching Kat and MC,” said Angel, “I will go up and stay with her.” And off she went in a hurry. “She should not go by herself,” said Candace. “True, but we won’t tell Baldwin this time,” said Annelie.

Meanwhile… “I’m sorry Steve,” said Kristina, “you should not have to go through this for me.” “It is my choice, so don’t worry about it,” I said, rather weakly. “Meow,” I said to her. “Meow,meow,” she answered. It was part of a code we developed to talk to each other, which also included numbers and a few words that would make no sense to anyone but us. We do have alert devices in our clothes, but they took our clothes and gave us other clothes instead, while we were knocked out. I also have one embedded under my skin, but the way I am chained up I cannot reach it.

Every 2 hours they come to beat us just a little, to make sure we do not keep our strength. They have been nice enough to allow me to take Kristina’s beatings as well, for the most part, saving her from a lot of pain. That is what she was talking about. She is chained up also, not too far from me, so I had asked her if she could reach me and activate the alert device. She tried several times but was unable to reach far enough. If I could just move myself a little bit…

Meanwhile, back to the others… Not long after Muffin told Baldwin what we heard, he got a phone call from Chung. His eyes went wide. They were all together again in Kat’s room. “Shirley was found by Chung in the chateau,” said Baldwin, “and found her beaten. She had gone there to check on it. She is okay though, it was not too serious.” Angel started to cry. “I am going back,” said Baldwin, “would you like to come with me Angel?” She looked up, “NO, I am staying here to find these cowards!”, she said adamantly. It is now 4am…

To Be Continued.

    • No, not a listening device, an alert device which alerts the others so they can track it to find me. All of us will soon have them, and they can’t be detected by anything either, making them ideal for us. Yes, the cats know who to trust and who not to trust, which helps the rest of us a lot.😁👩😾😾👩👩‍🦰👩‍🦰👩‍🦰👩‍🦰👩👩😐😊🙂🕵️
