REVIEW RESPONSE
Nightw2: I watch Sylvester and Tweety Mysteries a fair bit so I have a sense of the humor. I'm glad you liked it. On a different note, any idea on how long until your 'Titanicat' story will be ready? Sorry but I'm anxious to read it.
Rock Raider: I know the episodes you're referring to. Both of them were brilliant. There will be another Coolcat cameeo. I'll have to think about making him appear though.
acosta pérez josé ramiro: Yep, Sylvester never learns. What you were saying about the store, it's riddled with things like that in the Sylvester and Tweety Mysteries series, like in the giant tuna episode when Granny constantly quizzed the sushi restaurant manager. And who does like answering polls on the street? And about the paint on the guy's hand, all the tins of paint in the store would be sealed shut rather than open. That's why Aaooga was suspicious.
PurpleCobra247: Don't worry, I understand about your computer problems. I once had an embarassing moment when the reset button was stuck on and the computer wouldn't start up. It was a whole week until we figured out what was wrong. Glad you're liking this story. I'll try not to disappoint you.
A mistake
On the way back to the Inn, Sylvester regained colour in his face. He was still feeling rather unwell and was spending a bit of time with his head over the side of the car. Hector couldn't help but snigger at this. At the current moment, they were driving past a farm at the central point between the village and the DIY store. They were passing throug a field of wheat. There was a scarecrow in the centre of the field. There was a barn near the field. On the other side of the barn was another field. This field was littered with cows. The cows were happily grazing on the field. There was a red tractor near the barn as well. A few yards away from the barn was a farm house. It looked old and rundown ubt it was clearly still occupied as there was a new Ford Focus in the driveway. There was also a storage shed near the farn house. All the buildings were coloured red with brown and black pannels. Granny briefly turned her head and had a look at Sylvester. He still had his head leaning over the side of the vehicle.
"Sylvester, this is no time to watch the road." Granny muttered. Sylvester tilted his head and groaned in agony.
"Sylvester, I'll feed you later."
"Why does she never know when I'm in pain?" Sylvester thought to herself. Granny then noticed the farmhouse. She was actually passing it when she had a thought.
"Hmm, perhaps someone in here will be able to help with the mystery." Granny made a sharp U-turn to face the other way. The sudden motion caused Sylvester's belly to lurch. He leaned outside the car, thinking that he was going to be sick, but he didn't bring up anyhing. He sat back down and placed a hand no his stomach. Granny finally parked the car just outside the farmhouse. Granny picked up the birdcage and climbed out of the car. Sylvester was able to climb out and follow but he was very weak. Tweety noticed this while they were walking to the front door.
"Are you ok puddy tat?" Tweety asked. Sylvester was able to give a glace at the birdcage. He saw Tweety and Aaooga looking at him.
"Hmm, perhaps a light snack will help settle my aching belly." Sylvester muttered. He began closing in on the birdcage. The sight of Sylvester closing in on thm sent a chill down Aaooga's spine. As he was creeping up, Sylvester failed to notice a green puddle on the floor. He slipped on the puddle and landed face first into the gravel track that they were walking on. When he looked up, his face was covered in tiny stones. Tweety and Aaooga couldn't help but laugh at the sight.
"Looks like puddy's coming down with spots." Tweety joked. This made Aaooga laugh even harder. Sylvester just groaned in annoyance. He tried to climb to his feet but Hector walked all over him, pinning him even harder to the floor. The group walked onl eaving Sylvester pressed into the floor. He eventually climbed to his feet and caught up with the group. Hector however had stood in the way of the birdcage. Sylvester was actually running so fast that he crashed into Hector, who turned around with a look of anger.
"Erm…sorry?" Sylvester mumbled. It wasn't enough to satisfy Hector. He grabbed Sylvester by the throat and started pummeling his face. The noise gor Granny's attention. She drew hher broomstick and smacked them both on the head.
"Any more of that, and you two will be without a home!" Granny scolded. Hector immediately dropped Sylvester and smiled innnocently. Granny turnedaway and rang the doorbell of the farmhouse.
After a couple of minutes, the door was opened by a middle aged lady. She was a blonde haired lady with brown eyes. She was wearing classic farmyard attire. Sle looked cautiously at Granny.
"May I help you?" The lady asked.
"Pardon me, but I'm investigating the recent appearance of some counterfit money." Granny replied.
"Oh very well, come right in." The lady allowed the group to come in, but stopped when she saw Granny's pets.
"Oh, I didn't realise that you had animals with you." The lady said.
"Is that a problem?" Granny asked.
"Well, it's just that I have a cat of my own and I don't know how she'll react, especially to the dog and your canaries."
"As long as she doesn't bother the canaries, Hector won't hurt her."
"Oh ok. If you're sure. But what about your cat?"
"He's fine with other cats."
"Ok." The lady hesitantly led the group into the living room. It was fairly large with a cattle wallpaper and a red carpet with golden wheat grains. There was a fireplace at the side of the room. The ifre wasn't lit at all. There was a small TV in the corner of the room. The TV was currently showing an old Coolcat cartoon. In the centre of the room was a wooden tea table. There was a green leather sofa right beside it. There was a yellow cat sleeping on the sofa. The cat had a red bow around her neck. The lady walked over to the cat and sat next to her.
"Sylvia, we have guests." The lady said. Sylvia woke up and had a look at the group. She licked her lips at Tweety and Aaooga but shuddered when she saw Hector. She then had a look at Sylvester.
"I taut I taw a Tom cat." Sylvia exclaimed.
"I taut I taw a Dame." Sylvester exclaimed.
"I taut I taw a couple of lovestruck puddy tats." Tweety added. Sylvia jumped of the sofa and came in closer. She was incredibly nervous, She walked slowly just so she was sure of Sylvester. She stopped a foot away from him and they looked at each other.
"I did, I did taw a Tom cat!" Sylvia exclaimed.
"I did, I did taw a Dame!" Sylvester exclaimed.
"I did, I did taw a couple of lovestruck puddy tats." Tweety added. Aaooga was quietly laughing at the whole situation. Sylvester and Sylvia still kept their distance from one another. Eventually, Sylvia retreated, glancing at Sylvester one more time, before leaping onto the sofa. Sylvester wanted to join her but something stopped him. It was his stomach. He was still feeling very unwell. Instead, he just lay down and tried to put it out of his mind. Granny hung the birdcage with Tweety and Aaooga on a nearby coat hangar before sitting down next to the lady.
"Now Miss…" Granny began.
"Mrs. Jayne Edwards." Jayne replied.
"Ok Jayne. Are you aware of the incident yesterday?"
"I've only heard rumors from my husband Robert."
"I think we met him at the DIY store a few minutes ago."
"Yes. He works there part time so we have a steady ammount of income."
"I see. And he works on the farm the rest of the time?"
"Yes he does."
"Has he been acting odd in any way?"
"Not really."
"Ah well, would you object if we had a look around your farm anyways just in case the culprit is hiding somewhere?" Jayne gasped at the thought.
"Criminals in our own farm? Please check and get rid of them!"
"Well ok. I'll try my best. Come on boys." Granny stood up and walked over to the birdcage. She picked it up and went outside tto the yard, with Sylvester and Hector following. Sylvester gave one glance at Sylvia before following Granny. Sylvia had since gone back to sleep.
When the group were outside, the first field they saw was the field littered with cows. Granny had a quick look around. She walked over to the barn, with Sylvester and Hector following. When they got there, Granny opened the birdcage.
"Now, I'd like you two to search that field of cows." Granny instructed Tweety and Aaooga.
"Finally, that bird has to do something." Sylvester muttered.
"Sylvester, you check out the wheat field. Hector, you go with Tweety and Aaooga to keep an eye on them." Sylvester groaned and slowly began walking off towards the wheat field. Tweety and Aaooga gave a military salut flew off towards the cows while Granny went inside the barn. The barn was filled with haystacksand barrels. Most of the barrels were empty but some were filled with water and chicken feed. There was a chicken coup in the barn. The chickens were all asleep at the moment. Granny had a quick look around the barn but saw nothing of interest. She walked further into the barn when a glint caught her eye. She walked over to the glint and saw a screw on the floor. Picking up, she used her magnifying glass and examined the screw. It looked brand new and unused.
"Hmm, what would need screws around here?" Granny asked herself. She put the screw in her pocket and continued looking around the barn.
Tweety and Aaooga were flying around all the cows. Hector, rather than listen to Granny, had found a patch of grass and was sleeping. This had left Tweety and Aaooga alone, much to their annoyance. They had perched on the head of one of the cows to had a look around. All of the cows were milking cows with classic colourings. They all had a bell around their necks. Only a couple of the cows had taken notice of the Canaries' presence, including the one they were standing on. He was looking at them slowly chewing a mouthful of grass. Aaooga was trying not to look at the cows mouth as the sight of the grass made her feel uneasy. Eventually, the cow stopped chewing and continued to stare at Tweety and Aaooga.
"How do you do cow?" Tweety asked. The cow remained silent.
"At least he's quiet." Aaooga muttered.
"Yeah. She's pretty docile." At this, the cow mooed loudly, surprising them both and causing them to fall. When they stood up, Aaooga felt silly.
"Me and my big mouth."
"Bad old cow, you frightened us." The cow mooed again. This time, they were expecting it and stayed on their feet.
"Are you trying to deafen us?" The cow just mooed again. After this, Aaooga winked at Tweety. He nodded and covered his ears. Aaooga then made her wolf howl as loud as she could. The cow panicked and ran. Tweety and Aaooga landed on the ground and began laughing.
"He can't take his own medicine."
"Nope." They were about to walk away when they heard something from below.
"What was that?"
"I dunno. Let's find out." They began scratching the ground and eventually found a trap door in the field.
"Wow, this is strange." Aaooga then saw a hole in the floor. The hole was too small for anone to fall down, ubt large enough for them to squeeze through.
"Tweety look, there's a hole in the door."
"Shall we have a look?"
"I think we should." Tweety and Aaooga squeezed through the door and found themselves in a hidden tunnel underground. The tunnel led to the right only. They began following the tunnel until they reached a wooden door. It was too big for them to open but there were a couple of holes in the door. These holes were far too small for them to squeeze through.
"There must be something behind this door."
"Let's havce a peep." They leant up to the door and looked through the holes. They couldn't see much but they could see a desk and a couple of people. They also heard voices from inside.
"Where is that statue?" One of the voices said.
"I looked in the box it was hidden in, but I couldn't see it."
"How thoroughly did you search?"
"I emptied it."
"Look, that statue contanis the locations of all our printing presses. If someone found it, they could ruin us.. Find me that mouse!" Tweety and Aaooga gasped after hearing the conversation. They then heard a door slam and then silence. They were looking at each other with a look of shock and horror.
