Yay for posting two chapters within about 20 seconds of each other!

2. Orange

"Misto's gonna do a trick!" Rumpleteazer grinned as she dragged Mungojerrie towards the clearing. "C'mon, he said he needs volunteers!"

"Not again…" the tom groaned; each time his sister watched the little magician's tricks, she always volunteered Mungojerrie to partake in a new trick that wasn't fully worked out yet. He was beginning to suspect the two were conspiring against him – he was always the first "volunteer", and it always went wrong for him. Conveniently enough, whenever anyone else took part, it went without a hitch.

They reached the clearing just in time to hear Mistoffelees call out for volunteers to be teleported from one side of the clearing to the other.

"Jerrie'll do it!" Rumpleteazer called. The stripy tom could have sworn Mistoffelees winked at his sister…

Having no means of escape, he was forced to stand by a piece of junk, close his eyes and wait. A tingly sensation shot through him, before abating rather suddenly.

"Oops…" he heard Mistoffelees say, sounding anything but sheepish. Opening his eyes, he looked down at himself – the magician had turned him orange!

Meh, Misto deserves a chance to be the one being mean, instead of everyone else being mean to him (I need a new word instead of "mean"...)
