OFFER FOR FELLOW WRITERS
A WHILE BACK, I RECEIVED A REVIEW FROM AN ANONYMOUS REVIEWER THAT SUGGESTED I WRITE A RATED M FANFIC ABOUT MITTENS AND BOLT'S 'TIME TOGETHER' AT THE BEGINNING OF CHAPTER 6 OF "A MIXED LOVE". I HOWEVER DON'T HAVE THE TIME TO WRITE IT AS I ALREADY HAVE A PLAN FOR ANOTHER STORY AFTER THIS. IF ANYONE WOULD LIKE TO WRITE IT, SEND ME A PRIVATE MESSAGE AND LET ME KNOW. HOPE TO HEAR FROM YOU.
CHAPTER TEN: ARRIVAL
A/N: UNDERLINED ITALICS INDICATE A DREAM
Bolt, using the speed he used back from his days on the TV show, reached out and grabbed Mittens' paw as she let go of the train car. "I've got you Mitt's" Bolt said, holding onto her paw with all his strength. "BOLT" Rhino yelled, "LOOK OUT!" Bolt turned his head to see what Rhino was talking about and saw that the bridge was ending, but there was a tunnel coming up very fast, and was Mittens was headed straight for it. Oh, this is too good, Crystal thought, even thought she won't fall, she'll get flattened by the impact. I'm LOVING THIS! Bolt, seeing his mate and 1 true love was in danger still, gathered up all the strength he could and pulled Mittens into the train car. WHAT, Crystal thought, this isn't supposed to happen! Just as Bolt got Mittens in the car, the train went through the tunnel. "Thanks…Bolt…" Mittens said, panting heavily, "Another second…and I'd be…a goner." "Like…I said…Mitt's," Bolt said, also panting heavily, "I'd never…let anything…happen to…you." "But what I'd like to know," Rhino said, pointing to where Crystal moved the pillow from, "is how your pillow ended up over here, when Bolt put it over there." "Good point Rhino" Bolt said, then turned to look at Crystal, "Do you have any idea how this happened?" "No I don't" Crystal lied, "I woke up when I heard all the yelling." Bolt, due to his usual habit of trusting people, believed her. "Alright" Bolt said before he walked back to Mittens. "Are you alright Mitt's?" Bolt asked, nuzzling his nose in her neck. "I'm fine honey" Mittens said, "Just in a little shock." "Alright" Bolt said to her before turning to address everyone, "Let's all get back to sleep." "Alright Bolt" Rhino said as he headed to his pillow. "Fine" Crystal said as she went back to her pillow. Bolt brought his and Mittens' pillow back to where it was. "Come on Mitt's," Bolt said, "Let's get back to sleep." "Okay honey" Mittens said heading over to the pillow before lying down with Bolt and going to sleep.
"Ow" Mia said as they all climbed out of the bag. "You can say that again" Blaze said, rubbing his neck. "Ow" Mia said again. "Not funny Mia" Blaze said. "Now what do we do?" Lightning asked his siblings. "I don't know" Sun and Moon said together. "We'll just have to wait here for someone to pay the ransom" Thunder said. "But what if no one does?" Boots asked. "No one will pay for us?" Mia asked, getting really scared and ran to Blaze for comfort. "Nice going" Blaze said to Boots, hugging Mia in a comforting way, her head tucked into his chest. "Sorry, but I'm just voicing a possibility" Boots said. "It's not a possibility" Lightning said. "What do you mean?" Mia asked, picking her head up out of Blaze's chest. "Penny wouldn't let anything happen to us. She'll pay the ransom" Lightning explained. "I guess you're right" Blaze said, "Come on guys, let's get some sleep. I'm a bit tired." "Yeah, me too" Thunder said. And with that, the kippens all went to sleep, hoping that they will be rescued soon.
"Penny," Penny's mom said as Penny walked into the room with the ice, "It's them." "Who Mom?" Penny asked. "The kidnappers" she said, handing Penny her cell phone. "Penny took the phone from her mom with a scared look on her face. "Hello" Penny said into the receiver. "I see you're in the area Penny" "How did you know?" Penny asked. "I have my ways. Now, since you are here earlier than I expected, I've decided to move up the deadline. The drop off day is now Christmas Eve, rather than Christmas Day." The kidnapper said before hanging up. Penny closed the phone and handed it to her mom. "What did they say?" Penny's mom asked, taking the phone from her. "They moved the deadline up a day" Penny said. "Why would they do that?" Penny's mom asked. "They know we're here already" Penny explained. "In that case, you'd better tell Officer Douglas." Penny's mom said. "Right" Penny said before leaving the room and went to find Officer Douglas.
A few hours later, Bolt, Mittens, Rhino, and Crystal were waking up. "Were are we?" Mittens asked. "I don't know" Bolt said. "Hey," Rhino said, pointing out of the doorway, "Are we slowing down?" "I think we are" Crystal said, "Now what?" "We jump off" Bolt said, "Find out where we are, and find our way from there." "Right" Mittens said. "On 3" Bolt said, all of them lining up at the door. "One" he said. "Two" Mittens said, getting ready to jump. "Three" Rhino said as they all jumped out of the train car and rolling down the hill they landed on. They landed in a pile at the bottom of the hill. "Ow" Mittens and Bolt said, rubbing their heads where they collided when they stopped rolling. "You can say that again," Crystal said, "But where are we?" "We're in Niagara Falls" Rhino said excitedly. "How do you know?" Mittens asked. "Look" Rhino said, pointing to his left. They all turned to look where Rhino was pointing and they saw it. A huge cloud of mist billowing up into the sky. "That's just a cloud of smoke or something Rhino" Crystal said. "No, he's right" Mittens said. "Yeah," Bolt said, "We once watched a documentary about this place on TV together back home." "Well, let's go see" Mittens said, "Once we get there, we can find our way to the kids from the falls." "Good plan Mitt's" Bolt said. "Thanks" Mitts said as the group headed for the falls.
Excellent, Crystal thought, I'll just push her over the falls. Plain and simple. No one will suspect me.
The kippens were just waking up from their nap when Blaze's ears perked up. He heard a sound coming from the next room. He walked up to the door and pressed his ear against it. "What do you hear Blaze?" Mia asked. "Someone's talking on the other side of here," Blaze said, "Come listen." Mia walked over to him and pressed her ear to the door as well and listened. "So did they pay the ransom" one man said. "No they didn't" a second man said. "So what do we do now?" the first man said. "We have no choice but to eliminate the pests" the second man said. Blaze and Mia pulled their ears away from the door with terrified looks on their faces. "Oh no" Mia said before breaking down in tears. Blaze turned around to ask Lightning what they should do, but Lightning wasn't there. "Moon, where's Lightning" he asked, turning to ask her, but she wasn't there. Neither were Sun, Boots, and Thunder. "Mia, where is everyone" "I don't know" Mia said, tears still flowing from her eyes. "It's time" the first man said, kicking the door down, holding an un-identifiable weapon in his hands. Mia ran over to Blaze and held onto him tightly. "It's going to be okay Mia" Blaze said uncertainly, holding her just as tight as she was holding him. The man pointed his weapon at the 2 kippens. Blaze woke up from his nap in a terrible fright. He looked around the room and saw Lightning and Boots sleeping a few feet away, Sun and Moon sleeping next to each other against the wall, Thunder sleeping in the middle of the room, and Mia sleeping right next to him. Just a dream, he thought, before going back to sleep.
After reaching the falls, Rhino took the map and was looking it over with Crystal in some bushes nearby. "So it looks like it's just a straight shot from here" Rhino said, pointing to a spot on the map just 2 blocks from their location. "Good" Crystal lied; this could be my last chance to eliminate Mittens. I can't mess this up.
Meanwhile, Bolt and Mittens were sitting together by the railing looking at the falls. "It's beautiful" Mittens said. "Not as beautiful as you" Bolt said, pulling Mittens in for a kiss. After she and Bolt separated, Mittens giggled, turned to look at the falls, and rested her head on Bolt's shoulder. "Thank you" she said, tilting her head up to look in Bolt's eyes. Bolt gave her a quick kiss on the nose before turning to look back at the falls. "We'll have to remember to come back here with the kids some day." Bolt said. "Yeah" Mittens said with a sigh. "GUYS" Rhino said, running up to them, carrying the map. "What is it Rhino?" Bolt asked, turning his head to look at the hamster. "We're so close," Rhino said, placing the map in front of them, "If we go just 2 more blocks, it's a straight shot to the kids." "Great" Mittens said. This is it, Crystal thought, "Let's go." Crystal took a step forward and feigning to slip on a puddle of water, knocked into Mittens and pushed her over the railing. "BOLT" Mittens yelled as she clung onto the ledge. "MITTENS" Bolt yelled as he ran over to grab her paws. "BOLT, I'M SLIPPING" Mittens yelled as she slid further down the ledge, almost falling off. Just as Mittens was an inch from losing her grip, Bolt grabbed her paws and pulled her up. "That was a close one" Bolt said. "Yeah," Mittens said, "Thanks Bolt." "No problem Mitt's" Bolt said, "now let's go get our kids." As Bolt, Mittens, and Rhino started walking away, Crystal was still sitting by the railing. Darn, Crystal thought, now what do I do? That was my last chance to get rid of her. "Are you coming Crystal?" Bolt asked. "Yeah" Crystal said, following them, maybe I can come up with something on the way back.
Officer Douglas was just coming out of the elevator on his floor when Penny was coming out of her room. "Ah, Penny" he said, walking over to her, "I got the key for the locker." "Good," Penny said, "because the deadline was moved up." "What do you mean?" Officer Douglas asked. "Now the pay-off is the 24th instead of the 25th" Penny said. "But why?" Officer Douglas asked. "They said it's because they know we're here already," Penny explained, "But how they know, I don't know." "Well, we can stick with our original plan. We can set up the stake out tomorrow and we'll be all set to catch them when the time comes."
SO THAT WAS CHAPTER 10. PLEASE REVIEW. CHAPTER 11 WILL BE UP THIS COMING SATURDAY/SUNDAY.
