Mad at Mouse Part 33



I was sad to go, but I couldn’t stay.

There was too much to do, and the people I needed wouldn’t or couldn’t leave this World behind.

The boys seemed to understand, and their friends turned up to wish me farewell.

It was more, far more, than I had gotten on any other planet.

I opened up the Pathways, forming a doorway. I couldn’t resist showing off a little.

In hindsight that was probably a bad idea.

I waved goodbye.

That first step is a dozy.

I fell. I shouldn’t have left the doorway open so long. I shouldn’t have been showing off. I shouldn’t have...

But I did.

And like I had seen before on that World, if the power wants something gone, of it wants something to happen?

It’s like dominoes.

Apparently I wasn’t the only one who thought I needed Perry’s help.

The machine, some sort of flying device with a fire enchantment propelling it, crashed into my doorway.

I went tumbling and blacked out for a while.

Blacking out when you’re standing on the Moon Paths is a very bad idea.

When I came to I couldn’t tell up from down, left from pudding or forward from water.

Like I said, blacking out on the Moon Paths is a very bad idea. Waking up there is even worse.

I wonder if part of the Mouse’s problems had been that I carried him through the Moon paths.

I was furious. I was also shouting utter nonsense.

Doofenschmirtz and Perry had been fighting, but stopped when I started speaking nonsense.

Rolling my ears, I grabbed the Platypus and the Doctor and dragged them along the pathways.

It’s probably a good thing I did.

Doofenschmirtz is already insane, I would hate to see what the Moon paths would twist him into.
