Tom and Jerry: The New Visitor

Disclaimer: I do not own any of the characters from Tom and Jerry cartoon.

It was midnight and Tom was hungry so he decided to get a snack. He quietly went downstairs from his bed (which was really just the floor) and opened the fridge. There was only fruit and vegetables which he really didn't like so he opened the freezer. There he saw it. He saw the most delicious caramel flavored ice cream that his master never allowed him to eat. He took the ice cream and opened the top. He tried taking a handful but unlucky for him Jerry came.

Oh that pesky little mouse, thought Tom.

Well lucky for me I don't mind cold caramel flavored mouse.

Jerry also wanted the ice cream but Tom was there. Tom was easy to handle but Jerry decided to give him a chance.

"So Tom, are you really sure you could eat all that ice cream by yourself?" Jerry asked.

"I don't see why not because after all, I can eat you too with the ice cream", said Tom licking his lips.

Jerry then knew it was no use trying to compromise with Tom so he pretended to be disappointed and walked inside his little mouse hole. Tom then took a spoon because the ice cream was to cold. He put the spoon inside and brought the ice cream to his mouth, just then, Jerry came right then and jumped on Tom's spoon.

"Yum Yum! Ice delicious ice cream with delicious mouse. This will sure be my day, or night", said Tom.

Jerry not only likes cheese but he likes all dairy products. But the ice cream was too cold for him to take himself so he decided he would trick Tom into bringing it to his mouse hole. Jerry then did something Tom did not expect, he kicked the ice cream at his face even if it froze his feet for a second, it was better than carrying it to his mouse hole.

"COLD, COLD", Tom yelped.

Tom got mad, so he grabbed a pan from the counter and tried to swat Jerry. Tom swung at Jerry with the pan, he dodged it.

"JUKE", Jerry said as he smirked.

"ARGGH", Tom swung again

Jerry Dodged, "Juke again", Jerry laughed.

Now Tom got mad. He swung the pan so hard he didn't see where he was hitting and smacked on his foot instead.

"OW, I NEED ICE, ICE ICCCCCEEEEEEEEEEE"

So he took the ice cream that was on the counter and rubbed it on his foot.

Jerry then just burst out laughing. Tom ice cream is for eating not for rubbing on dirty swollen feet you Dumbo, Hahahaha".

"OH JERRY I WILL NIBBLE ON YOUR LIMBS TILL YOU BLEED", Tom yelled.

Jerry's plan was going perfectly well, not only he will get the ice cream but he will get Tom in trouble. Too bad, he should have shared the ice cream with me thought Jerry.

Just then, "TOM, TOM, OH YOU SHALL HAVE IT FROM WAKING ME UP, YOU LOAF, ALL YOU EVER DO IS EAT EAT EAT", said a voice coming from the stairs.

Oh no, Tom's master was coming and if he got in trouble, Jerry couldn't get Tom into giving him ice cream.

"JERRY YOU GOT ME INTO THIS TROUBLE AND YOU SHALL PAY".

"Now, now, don't get so mad, all you had to do was give me some of that delish and none of this would have happened."

Now Tom decided he was once and for all, going to eat Jerry. Tom trapped Jerry by swatting the pan around him. He got a plate and sealed the pan. He took the pan and put it in the oven. Done, Even if he had gotten in trouble he still had a delicious snack to eat.

"THOMAS", Tom's master came with a bat to give him beat.

"I had given you warnings many times, and it is now time to teach you the lesson I always wanted to teach you. She put the bat down.

Huh? Was Tom not getting a punishment? Was he being given another chance again? No, she said she was going to give him the lesson she always wanted to give him. Tom was confused.

His master than grabbed his neck lightly and then took his collar out. "Thomas, I am going to send you back to the animal shelter I took you from. I thought you were the right cat but, you are too much of a burden to me. Tears came to her eyes. From now on you are not my cat anymore."

What Tom did not want to be sent to the shelter again, it brought so much terrible memories. He pleaded with all his voice but all that came out were meows.

"It's 3 in the morning and the animal shelter is open all hours. I might as well just drop you off now". His master went upstairs to get her car keys.

No, Tom didn't want to go, because the shelter had bad food (In his point of view). Just plain cat food. He couldn't eat all the delicious items in his fridge. Well, it was his fridge. Tom didn't live here before. He decided to have his last good snack before he was kicked off of this house. He opened the oven and unsealed the pan inside it. But, nothing was in the pan, no mouse or nothing.

What happened was that when Tom thought he trapped Jerry in the pan, Jerry escaped in the split second Tom was sealing the pan with the plate. Jerry sure has some good agility skills.

Jerry was watching the whole thing in his mouse hole. Sure he hated Tom; actually he didn't hate Tom at all. He just liked to play pranks on Tom. Jerry considered Tom as his best friend. He actually felt bad; and lonely when he heard that Tom was being taken to the shelter. He remembered the good times he had with Tom when he was playing pranks on him or Tom was chasing him. It was good to have a buddy. Now Jerry was sad that his best buddy was being taken from him. Jerry started crying. Plus, Tom never turned on the oven and he knew Tom just tried to put him in the oven because of his temper. He would have never eaten Jerry, never. Plus, if the master had gotten another cat, the new cat would surely eat him. He needed to save Tom.

The master came back downstairs, grabbed Tom and took him to the garage into the car. She turned on the car and opened the garage and drove out until Jerry couldn't see the car anymore.

Jerry knew exactly where the animal shelter was because Jerry used to live there in a small crack until he sneaked into the master's car when she was bringing Tom home. It 3:30 in the morning and Jerry decided to get a few hours of sleep before setting out to find Tom. Well he tried to sleep but he couldn't because he already missed his best friend even though it was only an hour. He took a bite of cheese on his small table which helped him go to sleep eventually.

The sun rose and it was 7:30 in the morning. What he saw after he exited his mouse hole totally freaked him out. A cat, there was a cat in the living room. But it was not Tom. Jerry looked at the cat's collar and saw the name Dennis. Dennis looked ferocious with a lot of scars on his body which meant he must have gotten into a lot of fights. Just then, Jerry saw Spike and Tyke behind him. Spike was a dog and Tyke was his son.

"Spike and Tyke, welcome our new visitor, Dennis who will be taking Thomas's place", said the master.

Spike looked relieved that Tom was gone. Spike never really liked Tom never. He always considered Tom a nuisance.

Perhaps there will be peace in the house now that Tom's gone, thought Spike.

"Dennis, your job is to get rid of the mouse that lurks in this house. My previous cat always messed things up so you have to make sure you don't let me down", said the master.

Dennis would surely eat Jerry, unless he got out of the house to look for Tom. Yes, that was what he would do. Jerry had a secret tunnel in his room that leads outside the house. Jerry went through the tunnel and walked until he exited the house to the backyard. Just as he thought he was safe, he saw Dennis at his face.

"AHHHHH how- what- when- huh?" Jerry shrieked.

"Ya think me en idiot?" Dennis snarled. "I ave en excellent noze you no?"

Jerry had to get away fast or else he would be eaten by this new cat. Man, Dennis was fast, fast as thunder. He zoomed after Jerry and chased him around the house. He grabbed Jerry and dangled him above his mouth ready to eat him. Just then, a dog came and punched Dennis on the ribs. It was Spike!

"RUN, JERRY, I CAN TAKE CARE OF THIS FIEND, YOU CAN GO SAVE TOM, HE MAY BE A NUISANCE BUT THIS GUY IS EVEN MORE OF A NUISANCE", Spike growled.

Man, Spike always saved Jerry always. Jerry wasn't exactly friends with Spike but he looked up to him. Jerry ran and ran until he was out of the neighborhood. He knew what he had to do next. He had to save Tom!
