Story #44: THE DELICIOUS MOUSE BERRY

THE DELICIOUS MOUSE BERRY

     The wooden table was cold under the furry feet of the small bite-size mouse his ears

stood to a point his fur was nice and bushy and he had a small plastic bendy little

sword he raised his snout into the air and took in a small whiff he knew what was in the

air. Cheese... He whispered to himself as he bolted across the table in lighting speed

he zig sagged left and right all over the coffee table cloth, He knew he was closer.

As he turned he could not believe his eyes. A couple of his friends, But he wasn't all

that happy, Actually he was sad... H-help me please Berry! Berry was stunned their

was one of his friends on the ground his tail snapped underneath what looked like a

metal tooth pick snapped on a piece of wood, And his other friend trying to push with

all his might to realese the metal pole underneath his tail. Berry snapped into action

seizing the bar and lifting with all his might along the side of his friend, He could feel

very little movement of the bar, all though this wasn't enough, he took in a deep breath

and said harder! As he yelled to his friend she began to push with all her might, As the

bar lifted the mouse quickly grabbed his tail right before, SNAP! The bar slammed shut

on the board at the last second the other two mouses flew back a bit tumbling over

themselves. A-are you alright Berry? Berry raised his little nose as the sound opening

his cute black eyes to see his friend Lexi, Lexi was one of the cutest mouses Berry

had ever seen he thought, They had been friends for a few years now, Hey! what

about me... Both of the little mouses to look over at the quit bigger mouse he was

holding his tail with little tear drops running down his snout. Oh your okay big brother!

Lexi said slapping his back, Y-yeah i guess your right... This larger looking mouse was

Lexis big brother Cookie, And also Berrys best friend, They have been getting into

troubling situations and having laughs for a long time, T-hanks Berry you were

amazing! Berry smirked closing his eyes, Don't you mean delicious! He said raising his

plastic sword into the air acting oh so cooly, Yes offcorse my bad! Cookie corrected

himself. Ill forgive you this time, Berry chuckled a little putting his sword back to his

waist, as he did the two mouses started to clap in applaud. Thank you Berry much,

Now wheres the cheese Cookie? All the mouses looked left and right, Their it is!

Cookie shouted as he pointed toward the side of the catrabtion berry was stuck in, Lexi

slowly picked it up smelling it, It smells okay! (Lexi always smells her food because her

mother dies eating a piece of poisoned food) Here Berry you should have this, If it

wasn't for you my brother might not have his tail right about now, Yeah i agree Cookie

said kissing his tail, You should keep it, They both said smiling. Thanks guys really,

But we should share it like a family, They both looked relief to get a piece of the

cheese. Berry quickly cut it up in to three even pieces with his small plastic sword. Dig

in my friends! i hope yours is just as Delicious as mine! Cookie quickly dived into his

piece, Lexi took piece off by piece chewing quietly, As for Berry he took it in one hand

biting off a piece at a time, After awhile the mouses walked away from the spooky trap

that was holding the cheese, their belly’s stuffed. Lets take a nap over their! Berry said

pointing to a small flipped over black cup. Hmm... Berry closed in on it seizing his

sword creeping closer.... Hello? he shouted inside the blacknes of the cup, He waited a

bit, No answer... He gave a hand motion for the rest to follow, They all piled in the cup

picking their spot, Berry sat at the lip of the cup his sword in his lap, After awhile he

leaned over to the side of the cup falling in to a nice deep sleep.

     Morning came to the sound of sizing bacon and the shooting of toast along with the

sounds of alarm clocks buzzing from upstairs he looked over at his fellow friends as

they were already rubbing their eyes and blinking to the delicious smell. Berry looked

around right outside the cup left and right rapidly, All is clear. He said walking out

slowly, BOOM! Their was an instant change in mood as the second slam knocked

Berry back into the cup along with his friends, The cup began to roll down the coffee

table on to the floor the friends knocking heads until, THUD! They hit the side of a wall

with a loud smash, The gang got out trying to stand straight Lexi trying to push Cookie

over on his back Berry rubbing his head trying to figure out what happened but as hew

was standing confused hurt and rubbing his head he heard a far familiar sound, The

sound of the tattering of claws scratching the floor, The nasty snarl and foul breath of

the teeth sharp terror, It was Jazz the house cat, RUN! Berry yelled to the top of his

lungs all three mouses scurried in different directions Berry took for the kitchen. He

could feel the nice cold tiled floor under his toes. He quickly slammed his back against

the cupboard caching his breath. Jazz was not amused he walked with his ear legs

black his black body put to the floor with only his white fluffy stomach fur touching it,

Berry knew he was a dead mice. He clenched his sword his palm sweaty between the

sword. Just then their was a loud crashing noise from the living room, Jazz quickly

turned tail and darted off to the sound, Berry let go of his sword but his hands against

the wall and let out a huge sigh, Yeah you better run fur ball... Berry said to himself

quietly, Berry began to run a bit against the wall into the living room for he was also

curious of the sound, curious and worried, He hoped Cookie wasn't trapped again and

this time ready to be finished.

     But to his surprise it was nothing like that it was far much better then he thought,

In a distant he could see Lexi and Cookie climbing out of a small hole in the window

about the size of orange, Cookie was holding onto Lexis hand trying to help her threw

the window avoiding the glass, However Berry wasn't the only one who discovered the

sound Jazz the cat darted kicking with its back legs Jumping up to the window-ceil, But

to late as soon as he got up their Lexi had been pulled threw, Jazz tried reluctantly to

snatch even one his face tearing into the glass cutting the side of his face deep cuts

begun to spur blood as it dripped into a puddle underneath Jazz, Berry was scared,

alone. But he knew what must be done, He ran dashing forward towards the window

untill he came into contact with it. He looked straight up the curtains thinking of what to

be done. Then his brain hatched an idea, He quickly grabbed the curtains climbing

them swiftly his sword by his side. As he reached the top he grabbed his sword into

hands and dashed as fast as he could till he came close to the cat he quickly fell to his

back sliding on the puddle of blood, As he did Jazz looked down at the determine

mouse and for a split second of warning Berry jammed his sword as far as he could

into the monsters nose, The cat meowed falling off the window-ciel clawing at the

plastic sword crying in pain, Berry got up his enemies blood dripping down his tail he

looked down at Jazz flailing about, He smiled and thought This is the end. HURRY!

Berry could here Cookie screaming from the outside. Berry snapped into action turned

around and quickly darting then jumping out the window hugging Lexi and Cookie,

They were confused but they shrugged at each other and hugged Berry back, For all

three of them Knew they were free to start a new adventure.
