After making my own version of 'The Great Mouse Detective' with my OC, Hermogenes Borra, I decided to make a sequel. Quite short sequel. So, enjoy reading this.


Hermogenes Borra has been in another-world London and worked with Basil for four years, and it was worth it. He already forgot his miserable life back at his home world and home country. He never told his friends his true identity as a human with wings. Not only because he's too afraid that he might be hated or abandoned by his friends, but also he was way too busy protecting Basil and Dawson. His coward and hopeless personality turned into courage and happiness. When his friends were in trouble, Borra courageously took the risk. For example, a burglar dropped a piano at Basil and Dawson, but Borra pushed them before the piano hit them, and Felicia was about to attack the detective and the doctor, but the protector fought off the cat with his bare hands.

One day, the day before Christmas, another case solved when Basil, Dawson, and Borra went back to the flat. Basil slouched on his favorite chair as he took out the violin, which Borra had fixed years ago, and played a song. Dawson sat on another and listened to that sweet music, and Borra sat on a small stool, which he didn't mind it was small. Then, the young mouse heard his stomach growling.

"Oh my, I'm so hungry. Let's eat, you guys! Christmas dinner!" He exclaimed.

"I appreciate your enthusiasm for food, Borra, but I don't think the food is ready yet." Borra groaned in tiredness.

"Why don't we just ask Mrs. Judson if she prepared some food for us?" Dawson suggested as he stood up from his seat, and headed towards the kitchen door.

When the doctor was about to open the door, Mrs. Judson slammed open the door, and ran around the room in panic.

"Oh dear, oh dear, oh dear, oh dear!" She cried.

Basil sat right back up when he was alerted by the landlady's panicky voice, "Ugh, what's wrong now, Mrs. Judson?"

"Is there something wrong?" Borra asked.

"Well, gentlemen, I was about to make Christmas dinner, but I realized we don't enough food left! I can't even make some cheese crumpets without cheese or any." Mrs. Judson explained, "I better go to the market to buy some food." She prepared the list she needed to bring, but it was snatched away from her hand.

"Allow me, Mrs. Judson, I'll get the groceries for you." Borra volunteered.

"Are you sure that you'll get whatever is on my list all by yourself?" She asked in concern.

"I've been protecting everyone from any danger, Mr. Judson. It also doesn't mean I shouldn't protect myself."

"Aww, what a gentleman you are."

Borra turned to the detective, "Basil, I need some money, please."

Basil rolled his eyes as he reached for his robe pocket, and tossed few coins on Borra's hand as he caught them.

Borra counted the coins, and groaned, "Oh, it's not enough!" Then turned to the doctor, "Dawson, do you have more?"

Dawson took out a small bag of coinc from his bag, and tossed it to Borra as he caught it. He's good at catching, "Right amount! Thanks, doctor."

"You're welcome, young Borra. Just be careful out there. It's Christmas eve, and it's getting cold out there." Dawson warned.

"Not a problem, Dawson. I always wear a jacket, remember?" Borra grinned as he rushed to the door, got out of the flat, and slammed the door close.

When Borra left, Basil, Dawson, and Mrs. Judson glanced at each other.

"I always wondered what was inside of Borra's jacket." Basil said.

"Now that you think about, he's been always wearing his jacket. And I mean, all the time." Dawson added, "He never wore off his jacket in front of us."

"What are you hiding for all your life, Hermogenes Borra?" Basil whispered in his mind.


Borra walked towards the small market place where the mice bought food and ingredients for Christmas.

He bought every food in the list, and paid the seller.

When he finished buying whatever Mrs. Judson needed, Borra carried the bag of groceries, and walked back to the flat. Suddenly, in a dark alley where no one, not even humans or other animals, around, he tripped into something, and fell down, almost spilling the groceries from the bag. He groaned in pain as he got up on his feet.

What he discovered under him and the thing he tripped on… was a giant book with a lock, and beside the book was a giant red flag with three white Ks.

Borra gasped as he recognized the flag before, "The Katipunan flag? How did this thing get here?" When he held the pole, the flag started to shake and glow, "What the-? What—What is happening?" The flag magically transformed into a large-handle magnifying glass, and shrank into mouse-size, "Whoa, what is this?"

Borra has no idea what he was holding, until, suddenly, the frame of the glass started to glow, and the light pointed the lock of the book as it unlocked and opened the first page; the title of the book :Book of Spells.

"'Book of Spells'?" He whispered curiously, then turned to the next page, where the page showed him of what he was holding right now was a magic wandstaff. Then, he turned another page as it showed a spell called 'Levito'. Out of curiosity, Borra recited the spell, "Levito?"

The wandstaff blasted a red light from its bell, and shot the book, making it levitate in the air. "Oh, amazing!" The magic didn't last the book was lowered back on the ground. Borra skipped few pages to search more interesting spell, where he found 'an origin transformation' spell. The spell is in ancient language, so he'll try his best to recite it.

"Origina Transforma!"

The wandstaff pointed him as the magic energy was release from the wandstaff to his face. After 5 seconds, he didn't feel anything, until he noticed the book was no longer giant but a normal size book. Then, he felt his large circular ears became small and more of human ears, and he has no tail. Borra quickly looked at himself on a puddle, and saw that he was no longer a mouse, but back into a human, "I'm a human again!" Borra squealed happily and quietly, hoping no one could hear him. Unfortunately, his wings remain the same inside of his jacket.

Borra then realized his friends were waiting for him back in 221 1/2b Baker Street as he quickly grabbed the book, and searched for a spell to change him back into a mouse again, but he noticed a note from the Origin transformation spell that the wielder of the wandstaff can change into any form they want by thinking what they want to transform into, and slightly hit the bell of the staff on the head. As Borra followed, he thought of transforming back into his mouse form as the magnifying glass glowed, and slightly and softly hammered his head with a wandstaff, shrinking him into mouse size with his ears became big and circular, his tail grew, and his skin became brown mouse fur.

"I better hurry before Basil and Dawson become suspicious that I'm out for too long." Borra said to himself as he searched for a shrinking spell. He finally found a spell that can change size into any object. He read the page, and recited the spell. "Minimize formation." He pointed the wandstaff to the book, and the book shrunk into mouse size.

Borra quickly grabbed the book, put the spilling groceries back in the bag, and carried the bag, book, and his brand new wandstaff with him before continuing to walk back on track before someone else noticed him.


So, this is the first chapter.

The Katipunan flag was for the Katipunan group. The Katipunan (usually abbreviated to KKK) was a Philippine revolutionary society founded by anti-Spanish Filipinos in Manila in 1892, whose primary aim was to gain independence from Spain through revolution.

The magical wandstaff can change its appearance according to whoever wields it. Since Borra found the wandstaff as the Katipunan flag, there's a possibility that the previous owner of the wandstaff was one of the members of the Katipunan group, and it's from Borra's home world and home country. The transportation of the wandstaff and the Book of Spells to the world of Mousedom was remain secret (until further notice).

I hope you enjoyed this story so far
