A/N: Welcome! Hi, this is my first Seussical story! This is my take on it and it was inspired by Seussetta's story. So thanks for the inspiration! This will be loosely based on the musical with some original chapters here and there. So Kathy is based off my best friend, so I dedicate Kathy to my best friend! Love ya Izzy! Without further ado, let the story begin!
My Life In Seussical
By Hanna Crowe
Prologue
The Spying Seuss
"I had a sister?!" Jojo said. Jojo Mayor was sitting on he over-stuffed couch with his mother and father. He thought he'd get in trouble with all his thinks. But right now, he wished that he was getting yelled at for thinking. Jojo was an only child and this piece of news changed his whole life.
"Yes," a guilty Mrs Lisa Mayor, "And what's more, you're also adopted."
"What?! Why?!" Jojo yelled. This was too many bombshells for one boy to handle.
"After I had my first daughter, I felt so guilty giving her away that I went and adopted another child around her age, when I married your father. I think you were about 2 when we adopted you. I'm so sorry Jojo."
"We were only about 22 at the time, we were lucky that we could raise you though," Mr Adam Mayor said, trying to comfort his son.
Jojo slumped down. "So, I have a long-lost sister? Where is she?"
"In the real world," Lisa said, her heart was racing, she knew that Jojo would be heart broken by the end of the conversion. There was no easy way to tell him this. Jojo was shocked. No one he knew went to the real world and came back the same. He was worried for his sister. Jojo was scared too, he didn't want his sister to live in the real world. Everyone in Seuss knows that there are two worlds, their world, and our world. Almost everyone has gone to the real world, and they didn't like it.
"What more could go wrong?" Jojo whined. Lisa took this as a chance to tell him what she wanted her son to do.
"I want you to spy on her, in the real world," Lisa told Jojo. Jojo was getting more shocked by the minute.
"We think it'd be good for you too," Adam said.
Jojo was shocked. How could his parents do this to him? "How? Mum and Dad, if I can even call you two that anymore. How would it be good for me?" Jojo said, getting really upset.
"Your Mother and I met in the real world, it would broaden your horizons. Besides, it'd only be for a year," Adam said.
"So, you want me to get close to your daughter and my 'Sister'?" Jojo asked.
His mum and dad nodded grimly. Jojo could agree it was the right thing to do, but why hadn't they told him any sooner?
"We tracked down the school your sister goes to, her name is Katherine Anderson, you'll more than likely be in her classes and such," Lisa said.
"Did you use the cat's magic to do that?" Jojo asked.
"Yes, we had to, it's to make sure you can do what you need to do," Adam said.
"And you'll be getting some of the magic too," Lisa said.
This made Jojo really excited. Having magic, especially the Cat in the Hat's magic is strictly off limits to kids unless there's a really good reason. And getting magic to use without parents around is even better. But when his parents explained it was for after he gained Katherine's trust, is when he can use it.
Jojo instantly hatched a plan. When he gain Katherine's trust, he would take her to Who, give her some magic, and she can choose what to do with it. It was fool-proof.
"Okay, remember, your name here is 'Andrew Ford'. You must get as close to Katherine as possible. And don't run out if magic or you'll have to wait till the end of the year to visit home. Love you Jojo," Lisa said, kissing Jojo's cheek as he got dropped off at the school's front gate.
"Bye mum, see you soon," Jojo said as he mother left him there.
A/N: There you have it. More coming soon on Kathy and the magic causing mayhem for Jojo and Kathy! Stay tuned!
