Chapter 4

“ T he cats are coming!” Tom exclaimed near the window while
watching the cats come. “Soups ready?”
“Yep!” grandma replied.

Ding dong! Tom went and opened the door and he
watched a long time. He stared at the cats with amazement, because they
were all making cutie faces, so he could let them in. Tom really wanted
his plan to work so, he said,” Come in!” He led them to the couch and put
a sign that said, “Sleeping Time, 5 seconds! The cats were very cozy that

began sleeping. But suddenly in five second’s grandma said: Dinner Time!”
Grandma was shouting with a sauce pan and with a spoon. All the cats
went rushing about. But then the main cat with a crown left the shrinking
potion on the couch and left happily, so Tom got the shrinking potion. It
was in a huge perfume bottle with a sweet smell of flowers; he was getting
a little sleepy over the smell so he rapidly zoomed and gave it to grandma.

Then, grandma put the potion into each soup and she gave it to each cat.
When each cat finished with their soup they went to sleep. They were all
hugging each other except one, the queen. Then, suddenly all cats began
to shrink, and got smaller and smaller until they were really tiny.

“Heyy! What happened?”
“See, how I defeated them, you should be very happy. But, don’t you
have to free someone?” grandma asked.
“Free who?” Tom asked.
“It’s ok. He is coming. You are going to like this person a lot!” grandma
exclaimed.

Suddenly there appeared a person walking from the darkness outside
toward Tom. Tom looked outside, and he recognized this person.
