As a large collection of vampires swoop back and forth across the screen, Kat shudders even more and scoots further down under the pillow; as he peeks out for all of a second, a vampire leaps out with its fangs bared, causing the space cat to quickly duck back down. As the group then begins another movie, an image of a small boy and girl walking through the park after midnight appears on the screen. Suddenly, a giant muck monster leaps out and confronts them, causing them to scream in terror. Kat stifles a scream of his own as curls up into a ball and hides his eyes.
At this moment, Millie enters the room; she pauses and stares at the screen for all of a heartbeat. "What a ridiculous movie! Who would ever be scared of that?"
"Scared?" Dennis muffles from under the sofa cushion. "I'm not scared, no, not me!" Millie stares at him blankly, shrugs, then leaves the room.
The group then begins another movie; Kat watches as an image of a mad scientist drinking a strange, bubbling serum appears on the screen. As the scientist slowly transforms into a hulking, green, vine-covered swamp beast, the space cat shudders and curls up under the pillow again. "Whoo!" Coop cheers excitedly. "This is totally epic!"
"Y-yeah, that's one word for it." Dennis stammers in fear.
"Aren't these movies totally rockin', Mr. Kat?" Fiona inquires enthusiastically.
"Yes indeed, M'Dear." Kat replies politely, putting on his bravest face. He secretly felt relieved that his friends were too focused on the movie to notice how frightened he was. They had been so kind to include him that he hadn't wanted to hurt their feelings.
Unfortunately, Kat's emotions were very much noticed by his foe Eeks, who had sneaked in through a crack in the door. "So, Zowan is afwaid of scawy movies," the evil hamster muses with a nasty smirk. "How, vewwy, VEWWY intewesting! This may be the perfect time to test out my new invention!" Upon these words, he then scurries off..
Once the movies are over, Kat inches out from underneath the pillow. "All right, yeah!" Coop and Fiona cheer. "That was the best!" Dennis peeks out from under the sofa cushion. "Pfew."
Fiona turns to Kat. "Weren't those movies great, Mr. Kat?" Putting on his bravest face, the space cat replies, "Why, yes indeed, M'Dear, quite fine pieces of cinema indeed." all the while biting his tongue not to say how scared he'd felt.
"Cool, thanks!" Coop exclaims. "We really appreciate you coming with us." Kat gives a small smile, albeit with some unease, in reply. "You're quite welcome, lad."
Coop then yawns slightly. "Well, I'd better be heading off to bed. Thanks for coming, guys." His friends politely reply, "You're quite welcome, Coop." upon which they both get up to leave.
Coop heads up the stairs to his room, with Kat sticking very close by. Concerned, Coop inquires, "Is all well, Kat? You seem to be walking really close beside me."
"O-oh no reason, lad," the space cat stammers slightly. "It's just...well, a bit dark and I wanted to exercise a bit of caution walking up the stairs." Coop stares blankly, but says, "Okay." Kat breathes a small sigh of relief that Coop had believed his cover story as the two make their way toward the bedroom. As they reach the room, Coop slowly climbs into his bed and Kat hurries into his cat house. The space cat curls up into his cat bed as his eyelids slowly flutter shut.
Kat soon finds himself walking through a black and white graveyard after midnight. He begins to look all around him apprehensively. "Coop? Dennis? Fiona?" he calls fearfully. When no answer comes, he begins shuddering and sweating profusely. "I-I'm all alone..."
At this moment he begins to hear groaning meows emanating from behind him; he whips around the see an entourage of zombie cats staggering toward him. "O-oh no, zombie cats!" Kat tries to flee for his life, but soon more zombie cats surround him. "Have mercy, they're everywhere!" Seeing a small path lined with bushes ahead of him, Kat musters up his courage and makes a mad dash for it, past the zombie cats, and ducks into a bush.
Breathing a small sigh of relief, the space cat peeks from his hiding place to see if the coast is clear; no sooner does he, however, than a huge vampire comes swooping down toward him with its fangs bared. "AHH!" Kat cries as he dashes from his hiding place and barrels down the path. He hasn't gotten far, however, when he hears a gurgling grumble and looks up to see a giant muck monster looming over him with its gooey arms outstretched. Kat screams in terror and dashes off into the forest.
"There now, little kitty," Kat hears a voice say. "Don't be afraid." The space cat looks up to see a man clad in a lab coat and glasses standing over him. "I'll take you to where it's safe." the man notes as he reaches down and gently picks Kat up. Feeling relieved for the first time in quite a while, Kat says, "Why, thank you very much, sir. This is very kind of you." not concerned that the scientist had just heard him speak English.
"You're quite welcome." the man replies. Suddenly, his voice trails off into a low growl; Kat looks up to see the scientist slowly transforming into a giant, leafy swamp beast. "AAAAAAAHHHHHHH!" he cries in fear as he climbs down and dashes off again. As he begins to run, the space cat hears heavy footsteps behind him and looks over his shoulder to see all of the monsters trailing after him. The beasts begin drawing closer...closer...closer...
"Kat! Kat!" The space cat quickly awakens to the sound of his young owner's voice outside of his door. As he peeks through the doorway, Kat inquires, "Goodness, is something wrong, lad?"
"I heard you meowing in your sleep," a concerned Coop replies. "Is something wrong?" A concerned look crosses the space cat's face. "Uhm, please don't be concerned, lad, all's certainly well. I, uhm, had just gotten a bit too hot." Looking relieved, Coop replies, "Pfew, I'm glad everything's okay." Kat gives him a small smile, upon which Coop heads back to bed. Kat then crawls back into his own bed and closes his eyes.
