A Trip to The MEWN!

 

            The girls had been hearing a lot of talk lately about an important trip to the “moon.” So naturally they were very excited. Toots had the great idea first, but then, Suzy agreed immediately!
            “Hey, Suz!” Toots sent, “Let’s go to the MEWN! D’ya wanna? I sure do!”
            “Can we do that?” asked Suzy, dubiously.
            “Sure! NASA did it, didn’t they? So, we can just as well!” said Toots, jubilantly.
            “How will we do it?” said Suzy.
            “We’ll just be points of vision, Suz! Like always! The same way we do everything else!” said Toots.
            “OK! That doesn’t sound too scary. Nothing bad can happen to a point of vision, right?” said Suzy.
            “Purrfectly safe! But let’s skip the flying TO the MEWN part, ‘cuz that’s boring! Let’s just do the MEWN part! OK?” said Toots. “I bet it wouldn’t take us four or five days to get there, but still, boring!”
            “I’m ready!” said Suzy.
            “Now, concentrate, Suzy, as hard as you can! We can do this! Let’s just Be There Now!” purred Toots.
            There was a five second pause.
            “Shall we do a countdown?” said Suzy.
            “Nah! We’re already there! Look! What do you see, Suz?” said Toots, in total awe.
            “I see bright light! Craters and mountains! The MEWN is silver, Toots!” said Suzy. “Ow, my eyes! It’s so bright out here!”
            “OK! Let’s go around to the dark side! How about it?” whispered Toots.
            In just a few seconds, the girls were over the back of the MEWN. No cat had ever been there before!
            “Toots, it’s so dark! I can’t see anything!” said Suzy.
            “Well, give your point of vision a minute to adjust to the dark, Suzy,” said Toots. “It won’t take long!”
            “Oh, you’re right,” said Suzy. “I see more craters and mountains! Wait! Do you see that thing there? Oh my, there are lots of them! Toots, what are those things? Did we discover something?”
            “We did, Suzy! Those look like towers of some kind! We need to tell the world about this! There are towers hiding on the back of the MEWN!” said Toots.
            “I wonder if anybody is home?” said Suzy. “Maybe we should check, before we go telling the world?”
            “Oh, yes! Let’s get in closer. Maybe someone is there!” said Toots.
            “I don’t see how anyone could live here. There’s no air,” said Suzy.
            “Maybe they make air in those towers?” said Toots.
            There was another pause as the girls adjusted their viewpoints to ground level.
            “These are funny buildings. They look like they grew here,” said Suzy.
            “They look like they are made of MEWN dust,” said Toots.
            “I wonder how they did that?” wondered Suzy. “I also wonder where the people who made them are!”
            “Maybe we can’t see them,” said Toots. “Maybe they are watching us right now!”
            Just then a vivid red sphere of light appeared outside the first floor of the tower. It seemed to search around as if it sensed a foreign presence in the area. At last, it steadied and slowly approached the girls’ location.
            “There’s no place like home!” yowled Suzy, in a rush.
            “Take me home, country road!” sang Toots!
 
            And just like that, Toots and Suzy were back in their respective homes. Safe and dry! Toots was at her window station. Suzy was down under the old piano bench.
            “Wow, Toots!” said Suzy.
            “Far OUT!” said Toots!
            Far overhead, the MEWN smiled down on the intrepid girls, and all was well.
