    One day Brownie, a young brown gerbil, woke up with a shock. She had just heard her mother squeal and she wondered why. She quietly crept out her bed and saw a furless paw trying to grab her mother. She quickly ran toward the furless paw and bit it hard. The furless paw then grabbed her and took her out of her home." Mom!!! Help me!" There were some weird looking gerbils that were standing on there hind legs. She then called them J.FL.G(Jumbo furless gerbil) The J.FL.G flung her in a dark new home that had nothing in it. She hated the home. She started scratching it as fast as she could. It didn't work. She didn't even put a dent in it. Then she heard a weird voice "I GOT A GERBIL!" It was so loud her ears hurt. After the annoying voice stopped another one boomed

"QUITE, YOUR SCARING THE GERBIL!" Then it stopped and it was quit. Then she was a light shine through the top of the dark home. She saw the furless paw coming again so she ran as fast as she could but the paw was to quick. It scooped scooped her up and plopped her in a new home. She saw it was not exactly new but it was better then the other dark home. So she made a nest and fell asleep. "Wake up you!"

"Huh what?"

"You are sleeping in my house! Who are you and tell me why your in my house?"

Well,...I'm Brownie and the Jumbo furless gerbils put me here.Now who are you?"

I'm Rocko and I live here but you seem nice so stay here but those what you call jumbo furless gerbils are called humans. So deal with them. But I warn you they are annoying.Brownie was shocked. This gerbil was so nice. So she told him her story of how she got here in great detail. Now they knew each other quite well so Rocko said "Lets sneak out of this dump. I mean literally they don't clean the cage. 

"Grose, but okay lets do it tomorrow. 

The Next Day

"Brownie wake up! It's me Rocko the one who is gray not brown like your mother!"

"Oh, sorry about that. Lets get going!" So Brownie learned how to get out. "And I've been waiting for someone to come before I do this so I could escape with someone with me," he finished.

"Okay let's do this!!!" They nibbled on the bars as fast as they could. Then "It broke Rocko!" and they nibbled faster. Then crack it broke and they hopped out. After that they ran to the door as fast as they could. Then "Stop,"

"Why?...oh thats why." The door was closed. Then Brownie exclaimed "I found a crack!" and they hopped into the crack. " Where are we?"

" In the crack still in the crack."

"Oh I thought we were out. Sorry...... Hay its some light Run!!!!!" They ran as fast as they could. Then there it was open grass. "Wow! So many trees.

" Um its grass.... well its time we go are separate ways. "

"What! No don't go. Its bad enough to lose my mother but not you too!" she wailed.

"I'm sorry but I have to. Good-bye!"

"Wait! Don't go! Noooooooooo!"she cried. Then she whispered while crying " Please, don't go."Now months have past and Brownie found a huge house. "Whoa, thats a big house." So she entered the house.

    "Help!"she heard from a door. So she entered it to see whats happening.To her surprise nothing was wrong,just a room with a cage, wait a cage! She jumped as high as she could and grabbed the edge of a big table. She pulled herself up,pulling with all her might. Then she was on top of the huge table. She called out "Who said help?"Then when she was about to leave she heard"Wait,don't go! Come over here. It was me!"She turned around to see a black furred gerbil with a upset expression on her face."Please help me!"she whined as though she were a little gerbil pup. "Okay,okay keep your fur on. Just nibble the bars like this."She showed the black gerbil how to bite the thick white bars."Okay....crunch crunch..ow I hurt my tooth."

"How old are you?"

"Three weeks maybe a little more."She bit the bar some more. Then she said"It broke it broke!" and she said for what seemed like a hour. After that she stopped and fell asleep."Great,now I have to wait."she mumbled.After two hours she woke up."Who are you?Oh,its you!" She slipped threw the bars and said"My name is Shadow.But the people here call me licorice.Sandy,come on its time we leave this house!Sorry about that. This is Sandy,but she is called Maddy and I don't know why."

"Well,let's get going!"They all ran to the door and went into the grass."Whew,that was fun!Let's do it again."Shadow exclaimed.

"No we can't Shadow."said Sandy.

"Why!?"

"Because if we go back they could capture us again. No!!!"Meany! They ran to a little hole and went in.

"Peace!"giggled Shadow. 

  "Shhhh!Stupid furrball."Shadow started to cry.

"I'm not stupid!"

"What, I didn't say your stupid.I thought it."

"That counts if you think it!"

"...You can read my thoughts!?"

"Duh, can't everyone do it?"

"No,....wait that means your physic!That could be helpful, and annoying no affence."Shadow just let out a squeak of annoyance. And that was the begging of there journey to save all gerbils.

    One day a girl named Nina went shopping. "Mom, I am sooo bored!"she whined. Her mom just ignored her and walked over to the shoe section. Nina sighed and said "Thanks for ignoring me."  She followed her mother. "Wow, look at all these shoes!" I can try them all on! She rushed to a bright red pair of shoes. "Size 7. I can wear these whenever I want! I'm a size 7,cool!" She slipped them on. Perfect fit. She picked up a black pair of shoes. "Come on Pussy cat, start singing!" Nina looked around. She was on a stage, cameras flashing. She looked down at her feet. She was wearing the black shoes! She looked at the girls behind her. They had sparkling white then black fake whiskers. They had black dresses with a black tail. She looked at herself. She was dressed like them. How could that be?! She blinked in disbelief. When she opened her eyes she was back at the store. She looked at herself. She was wearing her regular cloths. She looked at her hands. She was holding the black shoes from the vision! She set down the shoes and stepped back. Super freaky! Then her mom said,"Wow, such pretty shoes. But they don't fit me.......but they fit you!" She dropped them in her kart. "Come on, were leaving."

    "Mom, I don't want those shoes!" Nina whined,"there freaky." Her mom ignored her again."Ugh, why do I bother." She climbed into her moms car and they drove away from the store. She picked up the shoes. "Come on, sing already!" Nina was back in the vision. She started to sing. ./ Come on, lets go. To a place I don't know./ She sang beautifully. The crowd roared. "They like me? They like me!" Nina said cheerfully. Then the vision started fading. The noise and the colors. "No, don't fade! Wait,wait!" but it was too late. She was back in her car, her mom listening to this weird jazz music. Wait, thats was the same song she was listening to before! But I took longer then 2 minutes! Now Nina was confused. She set down the shoes and picked them up again. Nothing happened. "No." she whispered. 

    yawn"I'm getting bored and tired." Nina complained. She was in her huge mansion with more than 20 rooms and only 1 was hers. The other 19 were shared by her parents. 9 1/2 were her mothers and 9 1/2 were her fathers. But her dad always shared. Her mom never ever. So she walked into her dads kitchen and pulled out her secret stash of candy. She took a snickers out of her stash. "Yum," she said sleepily. She ate it quickly. "Don't want anyone to know,"she told herself,"too risky." Then she went down to her mom's convertible. "Where are the shoes?" Then in two minutes she found them. "Yes!" She put them on. Then ding dong! "Coming!" she called. 

    "Hi, um I just moved in and I was hoping, could you give me a tour of your...our neighborhood?" said a girl about Nina's age. Nina couldn't believe her eyes. That was the girl in the vision! She words echoed in her mind, "Come on,sing already!" "Sure um what's your name?"

"Terry. My name is Terry M. Hearter. And thanks for saying yes to the tour," said Terry. They started to walk around the neighborhood. Nina stared at Terry. That has to be the girl, Wow! "So, this is Mr.Coo's house. He loves I mean loves birds," Nina started,"And thats Mrs.Green. You can guess by her name,house,website,cloths, and everything she owns that she loves plants." Nina went on and on about there neighbors and a pretty good description about them. 

    "Thanks for the tour! I need to go, bye!" Terry said.

Now Nina and Terry have started a band called The Pussy Cats, and play each day together. They also have Maggy and Lauren. Nina sang, Terry did backup singing,Maggy did drums, and Lauren did drums. They loved it. Terry was always singing right after perfectly and Maggy and Lauren always got the right note. ./ Oooo, come on, were on a roll, come and get me,try and steel me, try to get me in a box./ she sang. Terry sang./ Oooooo,get me get me, get me get me. Oooooo./ And they sang without any mistakes. They soon preformed in front of small crowds, then big crowds. Soon they became famous and preformed in front of more then 300 people. They dressed like black cats with two silver whiskers and two black whiskers. My vision! It is exactly what my vision was! ./ La la la l a la la laaa Oooooo I know how you feel./ ./laaaaaaaa,ooooooooooo,i know i know./

    One peaceful morning T-cat woke up with delight. "It's my 10th B-day!" she yelled. She ran down the stairs. "Heh,heh,heh. Present time." she said. She ran down the stairs and sat down at her kitchen table. She stared at the glorious feast. "Yum!" she said excitedly. She ate it at a medium pace. "So delicious! More....please!" she wolfed it down. "I'm full. Thanks for the pancakes!" She ran to the family room. "Presents!" she said in a devils voice. She launched herself at the presents. "Oooo, cat world for the DS lite,me likey." She opened her presents wildly as though her life depended on it. She was dazzled and horrified by how awesome there were. She thanked them ten times. ''Now I am happy!'' she yelled.

    T-cat,who is me,was at a T.V. store. Me,my mother,and my father were looking at T.V.s. Well, they were looking at T.V.s while I watched a pirate movie. But something else was on my mind, Petco! Petco is a place that sells pets and pet items.

"Mom,can we go to Petco?" I asked.

"Okay,"said my mother with a sigh. I had probably asked one million times and it had to be annoying. So we walked to Petco which was right next door.  

    Nibbles,a tan gerbil with specks of black,stretched her tiny paws. She was curious and daring. "Today, today is the day I shall escape. I shall escape!" She squeaked. She was mouse old. (Mouse means month) She sharpened her teeth and started to nibble the plastic blue bars. Soon Crack! "Yes!" squeaked Nibbles. She squeezed through the little gap and ran like a hyper pup. Soon she couldn't see her little home. "Good-bye Midnight," she said sadly. Midnight was a pure black gerbil who was full of energy and love. 

    "Who are you?" squealed Nibbles,"I know your there! I can sent you." She froze. She knew this scent."Show yourself now!" she insisted. Finally she heard a voice.

    "I am Thundersky, leader of FireClan. You are Nibbles from the giant's burrow yes?" She didn't wait for an answer. She quickly jumped on Nibbles and pined her down."Why are you in our territory?" Thundersky whispered into Nibbles' ear. Nibbles then raked her hind paws on the leader's belly,claws unsheathed. She wrestled with the golden gerbil until she was on top of her.

"Yes,I'm Nibbles from the giant's burrow and I am on your territory because I am free," Nibbles squeaked proudly. She got off the gerbil and walked up to the other gerbils and asked,"Who are you?" They just stared in disbelief. Why are they staring at me? Am I not allowed to attack her? she wondered. "Why are you staring?" Nibbles asked.The bigger one spoke up.

    "Y-you beat o-our l-leader. I-I'm Brownclaw and this is Shadowpaw." Brownclaw managed to say. He opened his mouth to speak but he said nothing. So Nibbles just looked at them. Then Brownclaw grabbed her and said,"Now!" Both Shadowpaw and Thundersky grabbed Nibbles and covered her eyes.
