The Innocent suffered with the Guilty, And the next morning, After the Chickens uprising had been put down, A few surviving Chickens were brought before Napoleon in "Court" Everyone watched from the sides, Cut off by Dogs and Foxes that stood guard before them, Napoleon stood in his usual Spot, Flanked by Squealer and Rocko, He glared down on the Chickens from his Stand, Voracious, Warren T and the Mouse king stood in front of him.
"Comrades!" Announced Napoleon. "Last night, An insurrection occurred! In which these Chickens assaulted our Brave generals! This defiance was an attempt against Animalism!"
"That's a lie!" Growled Mrs. Calloway.
"Shut up!" Rapped Voracious.
"An attempt orchestrated by someone from the outside of Animal farm!" Continued Napoleon. "And what outside force would seek to bring harm to us in such a way? Hmm? I'll tell you, Snowball!"
A gasp arose from the crowd.
"Yes, Snowball." Said Napoleon. "These Chickens were supposedly in league with him in another plan to bring back the Animal Cruelty Squad."
Cries of Protest rang up at this until the Dogs growls shut them up.
"Who else is Guilty?!" Demanded Napoleon. "Stand up and Confess!"
No one spoke, No one dared to move, Than from out of the crowd, A sheep quietly stepped up, Followed by a Duck, Another Farm Cat and a Barn Owl that frequently visited the Farm.
With a furious glare, Napoleon pointed to the Door with his Hoof, And Attila led an assortment of guards, Four dogs, and Two Foxes as they led the Prisoners outside, Away from everyone's distressed eyes, The "Traitors" were escorted outside to the side of the Barn where the Commandments were, There a Crow perched on top of the Barns roof and looked down at the Execution, He suddenly averted his eyes away from the scene below as Sound of Dogs barking and Bloodcurdling death cries rang out all around, An entire hour of it was heard Everywhere, The Animals did their best to shut their eyes and block out the Sound.
When it was all done, There was nothing left of them, Only a new Change to the Commandments, Edited with Blood.
No Animal shall
Kill another Animal.
Without Cause.
That night, Wilbur, Templeton, and the Cows looked upon the new Commandment.
"No animal shall kill another animal." Said Mrs. Calloway. "Those were Old Major's words."
"We could have stopped this by now." Said Maggie. "We should have."
"Maggie-" Said Grace.
"No! Shut up!" Snapped Maggie. "Everything's coming apart and you know it Grace! Napoleon and his Lackeys are making this place a hellhole, Bastardizing everything Old Major stood for, And we do NOTHING!"
There was silence for a moment as they all let Maggie's words sink in, Wilbur hung his head low, Thinking of all those Napoleon had wronged, Snowball, The Chickens, He was starting to resemble the Squad more and more.
"Then what are we meant to do?" Asked Mrs. Calloway. "We can't just rise up against him, He's becoming too powerful at this point."
"If you ask me." Said Templeton, taking a bite of an apple slice. "We should just hide in the woods until a storm hits or something."
"And how long would that be?" Asked Maggie. "Till we're old?"
"...Yeah." Shrugged the Rat.
"...That's a stupid plan." Said Mrs. Calloway.
"Well, it would make for a bitter-sweet ending." Said Templeton defensively.
"Maybe we could… Storm the Farmhouse with more Animals." Said Wilbur.
"That's just Impossible." Said Mrs. Calloway. "Even if we could gather all the Animals from all the Farms, Napoleon has practically amassed an Army at this point, We'd be put down in an Instant."
"So what are we supposed to do then?" Asked Maggie. "Let them keep appeasing us till the end of our days?"
"There's no other option available to us." Said Mrs. Calloway.
"I think there might be." A voice said.
They all looked around in surprise.
"W-Whose there?" Asked Wilbur, Looking around making sure it wasn't a Dog, Fox, Cat, or Mouse, H felt familiar with the Voice.
"Don't be afraid." Said the Voice again. "You hate Napoleon don't you?"
"Yeah, What's it to you?" Asked Maggie.
"I've been watching things around here for a while now." Said the Voice. "And I think it's worse than you think."
"W-What do you mean?" Asked Wilbur. "We can't see you."
"I can't say much now." Said the Voice. "Guards are coming!"
They looked behind them and saw Two cats and a Fox patrolling the yards, Quickly they returned to the Barn, As quickly as they could.
"Now go to sleep." Said the Voice as soon as they reached the Stalls. "I'll tell you more tomorrow, Meet me at the Barn entrance after work.
"Just who was that?" Asked Maggie.
"I don't know." Said Grace. "But I think we were just saved by them."
"Whoever they are, They saved my life the other night." Said Wilbur. "Before the fight between Napoleon's lot and the Chickens."
"So we can trust them?" Asked Grace.
"I think so." Said Wilbur.
"And if she knows something Napoleon's not telling us." Said Mrs. Calloway. "We might as well listen to whatever she has to tell us."
"This better not blow up in our faces." Muttered Maggie.
Wilbur and the others soon found sleep.
The next morning, Everything went on as if Nothing Happened, Work on the Windmill continued, With much of the Workload helped along by Boxer and Benjamin, As the work passed and everyone returned to the Barn, Wilbur, Maggie, Grace, Mrs. Calloway, and Templeton managed to slip out while everyone was asleep and went to the Barns front door.
"Well?" Asked Templeton. "Where are you?"
"Up here!" Called the Voice, They all looked and saw a large Spider web had bean weaved together in the doorway, From the web came a Spider. "See me now?" She asked.
The five Animals were surprised.
"Oh Uh, Hello." Said Grace.
"I can't see you very well." Said Wilbur.
The Spider descended to his Level and allowed Wilbur to take a better look at her.
"Is that Better?" She asked.
"Oh yes." Said Wilbur. "Most definitely."
"So, What is your name?" Asked Mrs. Calloway.
"My name is Charlotte." Said the Spider, with a modest bow. "Charlotte A. Cavatica."
"And you said you know the Truth?" Asked Maggie. "About what Napoleon is actually doing?"
"I do." Said Charlotte. "And It's not pretty I'm afraid, Not one bit."
"Trust me, We've seen not Pretty things so just tell us?" Prodded Templeton. "He's already taken over the Farm."
"From Snowball." Said Charlotte. "You probably think he was a traitor, But those were all Lies by Napoleon."
"Lies?" Asked Wilbur.
"I knew it!" Growled Maggie.
"Yes, and It gets worse." Said charlotte. "He and Squealer are now violating everything old Major stood for, The Commandments, Trade, All the Outside Cats, Mice and Foxes."
"Yes we're aware of all that, but what does it all mean Charlotte?" Asked Mrs. Calloway.
"Napoleon is preparing for something far worse." Said Charlotte. "Conquest, To the lands beyond Animal farm, He's building an army to make this happen."
The others gasped.
"What?" Asked Wilbur.
"Are you serious?" Asked Maggie.
"I'm afraid so." Said Charlotte. "He's also made deals without side sources."
"You mean the Trade?" Asked Templeton. "Yeah, we already know about that."
"But not enough." Said Charlotte. "Those Rats that came, They were Captains, Generals in an Army of Evil Creatures, Led by a Human dark lord named Jargafar, I don't know what exactly he wants out of him, But Napoleons already obliging him with Trade."
"What's he getting out of all this?" Asked Mrs. Calloway.
"What every other Faction leader wants Utter control of the world." Said Charlotte.
"Faction Leaders?" Asked Wilbur. "What are they?
Charlotte sighed. "I have a lot to explain don't I?"
And So Charlotte told them all about the War, About the Faction leaders, About Heroes and Villains, And all the other crap that was currently going on in this Poorly written universe, Because the Author is Struggling with dedication to writing these Stories! (No, Really, Please help!)
"Did anyone else hear that?" Asked Grace.
"I don't know, Probably some guy on Drugs." Said Templeton.
"Okay." Said Maggie. "So anyways, What does all this, HVDVNDV Wars have to do with us?"
Charlotte Deadpanned. "Did you even listen to a word I said?"
"All I heard was someone narrating." Said Wilbur.
Charlotte slapped her face with a… Leg?
"Look, The Point is Napoleon's created a Villain faction And is probably looking to tighten his grip on the Farm And build up his forces more as time goes by, They have to be stopped."
"But… How?" Asked Wilbur.
"You know about The Villains, I also mentioned Heroes." Said Charlotte. "There is an Organization out there, Trying their Best to defeat the Factions and end this war, The Freedom Watch, They are our only hope of Salvation."
"Where can we find this "Freedom watch?" Asked Grace.
"In a Human Castle." Said Charlotte. "A great hall Bordering somewhere in America and Canada, I believe."
"You expect us to Go to Man for help?" Asked Maggie. "They're the Enemy."
"How long before that changes?" Asked Charlotte. "And humans aren't all that bad."
"Yeah…" Said Wilbur. "I think I remember…"
Meanwhile.
In the House, Napoleon, Squealer, Voracious, Warren T., Rocko, Digit, The Mouse King, and Veracity discussed the Next course of action.
"Well then." Siad Napoleon. "The Trade should be going better from here on out, What else is there?"
"We have made good work on the WIndmill so far." Said Digit. "And the Harvest is holding up well, But the Budget costs are becoming a bit bothersome, Jones barely left any Money to run this place at its full capacity."
"Bah." Scoffed Voracious. "We've managed well so far Haven't we?"
"Well for how much longer is the real question." Said Voracity.
"Well fortunately." Said Squealer. "Our Illustrious leader has come across a new Alley to help us with that end."
"Yes, I have." Agreed Napoleon. "And here he is now."
The others looked up as a shadow seemed to slither into the Room and pop up around, It was a cat With fur literally resembling a Tuxedo, Green eyes, And whiskers formed into a Mustache.
Meowrice: When Preacher can't preach you.
And Teacher can't teach you.
And Angels can't reach you.
Four Cats: The Money cat can.
Meowrice: Oh we give social status.
To countrified tomatoes.
Four cats: If you want kicks and class and clothes.
The Money cat knows where the Money tree grows.
Meowrice: And should that dream of glory.
Be part of your plan!
Four cats: If any one can Help you!
The Money cat can!
One Cat: Money cat knows where the Money tree grows.
Meowrice and Four cats: We've got Kicks and Politics and laws!
In the Palm of our paws!
The gendarmes may nail you!
The lawyers may bail you!
The Judges may Jail you!
Man!
Meowrice: So why be a Paloma?
With Egg on your plan?
Four cats: If any one can save you!
The Money cat can!
Meowrice: Meow, Hm, Hm, Hm, Hm.
"Well… That was an Entrance." Siad Napoleon.
"Yes forgive me." Said the Cat, Whose name was Meowrice. "I just had to get my signature song out."
