Chapter Thirteen
Kidnapping (2)
"Does she have a way?" the assistant asked curiously.
"I don't know. I am hungry. I have to go back to get something to eat." Bruno needed to keep eating nearly every moment, when he began to chase the mouse, he did not have snacks with him, so he had to go back right away.
"Look, what is this? "said the assistant, and at that moment a witch mouse came out with some snacks. The assistant gave Bruno a bit of the snacks, which was very tasty and crisp. Bruno had a little bit and wanted to have some more, his mouth was watering. "We live in a big house and there is a lot of nice food there. Let's go and get some for you,"
said the assistant, giving him a bit more of the snacks. She kept giving Bruno snacks bit by bit so that he had to go with her to the house. I could not find Bruno and felt that there was something wrong. I climbed up a high reef and looked towards Grandma, Bruno was not in sight. If Bruno was back at the umbrella with Grandma and Mr. Jackins, I could see him at a glance.
I tried to look in the opposite direction, I could see some figures of mice, not only one.
I knew that it must be the witch mice who had taken Bruno away . I hurried back to the umbrella, ate some millet, took my sword and went to chase Bruno and the witch mice.
I soon caught up with them, hiding nearby. I heard them talking and followed them to the house in which the witch mice lived. The Mouse Queen and several other witch mice were waiting on the lawn. She was very glad to see the assistant really bringing Bruno back. She said to Bruno, "Little honey, it's nice to see you here." Bruno said, "Let me have something nice to eat." The Mouse Queen gave him some tasty and crisp snacks and Bruno began to eat. "We have much to eat. Take your time to enjoy it. Tell me, is being a mouse better than a boy?"
she asked very friendly. "It's ok to be a mouse, But a mouse can live for only two years. I want to become a boy again.
Turn me back into a boy!" he said to her. The Mouse Queen said, "We will. Go to the room. There is something more to eat." Bruno was glad to hear that and followed two witch mice into the room. The assistant asked, "Your Majesty. What shall we do now?" The Mouse Queen said, "Keep the little eater well in the room. Now we can negotiate with the old oracle." |
