The Purrminator is an action-packed experience that takes mew on a journey through a world of perilous danger with oodles of excitement, though sometimes in a scary way. With depictions of nightmare and spine-tingling encounters, the story draws mew in, making mew feel as though mew are right there with young Melvyn, fighting for survival as he's relentlessly hunted by the evil cyborg machines, known as Purrminators, as he tries to find his Great Uncle Basil through time and space. Oh my Cod, will he make it?

HOLD ON TIGHT, GUYS; THIS IS GOING TO BE ONE WILD, FLUFFING ADVENTURE!!!

Chapter Five

Winging It BBHQ Style

            “Fear not, young kitten and esteemed descendant of Basil,” Vera 5.0 said. “I’ve got your six, little dude!”

Melvyn trembled as the Conference Room turned an ominous shade of red. “Vera, we’re stuck. There’s nowhere to go!” he whispered at the black box he was holding.

“Don’t panic,” Vera said in her cheery tone. “Head over to the back wall.”

The kitten ran towards the wall. “Now what?”

“Halfway up, on the panel on your right, you will feel a slight indentation,” Vera instructed.

Stretching up, his paw glided over the panelled area, and then he felt it, barely any difference, but still enough of a difference to feel it. “Yes, I’ve got it!”

“Well, don’t just stand there like a kitten waiting for death. PUSH IT!” Vera replied.

Melvyn applied pressure to the spot, and the panel slid open, revealing a secret passageway.

“Hurry!” Vera ordered.

The kitten slipped through the opening, and the panel slid back into place. A dim light shone overhead as he scurried down the short passageway, fighting his way through swathes of ancient cobwebs as the musty, damp aroma filled his nostrils. He sneezed just as another door opened into a concrete chamber.

Looking all around, Melvyn sighed in utter despair. There was no way out, seriously, mew couldn't write it!

“Chin up, little dude,” Vera chirped. “You don’t think I’ve led you to another dead-end, do you?”

“That’s what it looks like,” Melvyn whimpered as he pulled a rather sticky web off his whiskers.

“Oh, ye of little faith,” Vera chuckled. “Stand by the wall and don’t move. Not even a whisker.”

The floor began to tremble just a fraction, and ancient motors roared into life.

“What the fluff?” Melvyn blurted as he pushed himself back against the damp wall as far as he could go.

“Stay still, young Pawda Wan,” Vera instructed.

Part of the floor slowly slid apart, and in the next moment, a flashing red light began to emerge from the inky abyss below. Steam billowed up, filling the chamber with a rather earthy and stale odour.

Melvyn gulped. And then he heard the sound of gunfire and explosions echoing in the distance, perhaps only the other side of the concrete chamber. Squeezing his eyes tight shut, he began to pray to Bastet.

“Quickly now,” Vera said impatiently. “Open the red door and get inside.”

His eyes pinged open, and his jaw dropped as he saw the fabled BBHQ Time Travelling Telephone Box standing right in front of him. Lurching forward on legs that felt as solid as overcooked noodles, he grasped the door, wrenched it open with all his might and fell inside.

“Astrid 7.0, this is Vera 5.0. I am invoking protocol Foxtrot-Niner-Bravo-Delta-450012,” Vera commanded. “Please execute immediately.”

The door slammed shut with a definitive bang, and the kitten nearly jumped out of his fur.

It was pitch black inside and as quiet as quiet could be.

“ASTRID WAKE UP!” Vera yelled from her mobile black box still clutched in Melvyn’s paw. Shocked by the unexpected outburst, the kitten launched Vera into the air and fumbled desperately to catch her on the descent.

A pale purple glow illuminated the space, slowly getting brighter. And the kitten gasped as he took in the sheer enormity of where he was standing.

“ASTRID!” Vera was getting rather annoyed. “Don’t make me have to download myself into your operating system. You know how that will go down!”

“For Cod’s sake Vera, take it down a notch, would you?” A grouchy voice replied.

“Oh, you’ve decided to join us in the earthly realm at last!” Vera fumed.

“Vera, take a breath. The world isn’t ending. Nothing bad is happening, so BACK THE FLUFF OFF!” Astrid snapped.

Vera sighed. Yes, it was one of those sighs; I’ve got one nerve left, and you’re getting right on it“Take a look outside and then tell me the world isn’t ending and nothing bad is happening. You complete fluffing fluffer!”

An extremely tense and seemingly long second passed, and Astrid coughed awkwardly, breaking the chasm of silence. “Hmmmmmmm… well now,” she appeared to suck in a breath and exhale really loudly. “That does change things somewhat!”

“They’re right outside the fluffing door, aren’t they?” Vera accused.

Astrid was silent for a brief moment before conceding. “Yep, they’re trying to open the door!”

  1. I wonder where and when Melvyn will go, or rather, where Astrid and Vera will take him. Great episode.
