Chapter 3: The Unanimous Decision
"Everyone have a seat," Munkustrap said. Munkustrap sat on the rough cloth upholstery where the driver's seat would have been, had the cats not taken the backs of the seats off for meeting purposes. Demeter sat on his right side, rather closer to him then she normally did in meetings due to Macavity's presence. Misto was on Munkustrap's left side rather than Alonzo or Tugger due the fact that Munkustrap wanted him close to keep him safe from the Mystery Cat. Tugger sat directly of Misto, who was in the passenger seat, then Macavity, and, finally, Alonzo.
"I have asked you all here," Munkustrap began, "to discuss what we are going to do." Misto spoke in his deceivingly quiet voice,
"I have already tried using my magic, and it won't work. I can't even produce lightning anymore, much less change us back."
"What if," Tugger said, rather reluctantly, "Misto and Macavity attempt to use their magic… together?"
"WHAT!" Macavity screeched, "I'm not working with that magician!"
"It won't work anyway," Misto interrupted with is quiet voice.
"Why not?" Alonzo asked, curious.
"Because," Misto continued, "This is a deep magic. It turns us completely human, erases conjurers' powers. All we have left from the cat is memories." They all became silent, thinking about what to do and not knowing how to respond to Misto's deep and powerful statement.
"Well," Munkustrap said after this long period of thought, "It looks as if our only choice is to do what the folders say."
"NO WAY!" Macavity said, "That's giving into whoever did this demands! I'm NOT doing that!"
"I agree," Demeter said, speaking for the first time, "With Munkustrap." Macavity turned and stared straight at her and said,
"Oh you do, do you?" Demeter didn't make eye contact with the Napoleon of Crime, knowing of his hypnotic powers, and not entirely sure they were gone. Macavity made a sudden movement towards Demeter, like he was going to lunge at her. Demeter gave a small scream and grabbed Munkustrap around the middle. He put one arm around her and stroked her head with his other hand.
"Macavity!" he yelled angrily. Macavity sat back with a satisfied smirk. "We have to work together to figure this out, Macavity," Munkustrap said in his getting-onto-the-kittens-voice. Macavity gave a quiet laugh as if to say "That'll never happen."
"I also agree with Munkustrap," Tugger said, "I mean there's nothing else we can do, and we only have four weeks to figure this out."
"So all in favor of doing what the folders say," Munkustrap said, "Say 'I.'" There was a moment of silence then,
"I," Demeter started. She was followed by Tugger, then Misto, Alonzo, and finally, and with bitter resentment, Macavity.
"So it's settled," Munkustrap said," There's just one more thing." He looked straight at Macavity, "We need to call a truce, or at least a temporary one, if we're going to get through this." Munkustrap held out his hand. Macavity stared at it for a second, then shook it, a malicious smile playing on his lips.

"What are we going to do, Munkustrap?" yelled a tall, blonde human Jellylorum. Munkustrap looked around at the anxious human faces.
"We are going to…" he said, "go to school." There was a squeal of excitement from a group of four girls, Jemmi, Vicki, Etcy, and Electra, who had always wanted to go to a human school.
A/N: So what do you think? PLEASE review and tell me!
Ashy4- Thank you for the sweet review! If you really want to know the truth, I just assumed that the spell included clothes. Just normal clothes, like what you may where to school. See this leaves it up to the person reading it what the clothes look like, so it sort of incorporates whatever people from any country wear. Do you understand? For some reason, that was hard for me to explain.
Puddycat- Thank you for the sweet review, hope you enjoyed this chapter too!
Anglina- Thanks again for the sweet review! I hope you enjoyed this chapter!
Bombalurinasara- You are so sweet! Yep Macavity's there, let's just wait and see what trouble he stirs up later in the story. Hope you enjoyed the chapter!
Sleeping Tiger- I hope you enjoyed the chapter. Okay, again I felt that all of this was incorparated in the spell. I kind of imagined that the inside of their dens were expanded as they transformed. If I had realised thatpeople would beconfused by the clothes and den thing I would have been more specific. My Apoligies (To everyone).
