CHAPTER 7: Susie's Plan
"Hi Hobbes, I didn't know you were here too," said Calvin.
"Yup," replied Hobbes with a kingly look in his eyes.
"So, Terena, where is the Great Tiger??" asked Calvin, looking around.
"Um, this is him," said the beaver.
Stunned, Calvin looked at Hobbes. "Hobbes is the Great Tiger??? He's my
best friend. He never told me he ruled this place."
"There are a lot of things you don't know about me," laughed Hobbes.
"Such as?"
"I will not repeat them. But since you are here, I will take you to see
Santa Claus so he can give you your presents. They will be useful for
your journey."
"What journey?" Calvin asked cautiously.
"The one you will go on to the Witch's castle. You will free the statues
that live there and defeat the Witch," replied the Great Tiger.
Meanwhile, Susie the White Witch and Mr. Bun were traveling, looking for
the two travelers they had seen earlier in the day.
"We must not let them find the Great Tiger," said Susie.
"Your Highness, I'm sure they must have made it there by now. It's been
24 hours since we saw them last," said Mr. Bun.
"I know. But he will most likely send the boy to the castle that will
destroy me. We can cut him off from the palace."
"But he'll be with Hobbes."
"I can take care of that tiger," smiled Susie. "I know what his weakness
is."
"What is it?" asked the rabbit.
"Let's just say he's going to be ticklish by the end of the day."
"Hi Hobbes, I didn't know you were here too," said Calvin.
