He saw two skinny looking rats inside a small cage, which nearly looked like a prison. The rats looked really weak yet they were still able to move at such speed. Mr Xavier seemed to just have disappeared from the room as when Tim was just entering Mr Xavier was there. Tim also spotted that the rats really did not get much to eat. One of the rats soon caught a glimpse of Tim and it stared at him with eyes that seemed to grow with intimidation. Those red shot eyes were as shiny as a ruby and looked like they were filled with anger.
Tim slowly backed away, trying to keep eye contact, falsely thinking that if he was to look away for just a split second it would end up somewhere else. Tims back bumped into a wall, he thought for a moment hadn’t the door been open; when he entered it was open. Tim had butterflies but not just the normal butterflies, the butterflies of fear- the ones that make your belly swirl and twirl the one which revolts with fear. He then remembered that Mr Xaveir had left the room so maybe he closed the door really silently, right? So he did the unthinkable. Tim spun round so fast he nearly went through a 360°spin but luckily he managed to catch himself and saw that the door, the door that he entered with was gone…
“Hello T-t-t-t-i-im” began the rat, “W-w-welcome to m-m-m-my home. The voice of the rat sounded distorted with deep stuttering and it did not take long for Tim to get thousands of chills running down his spine- It felt as if an avalanche had started on his back. He was sure that the other rat was blind as it had looked at him and looked away too many times. “What do you want from me!?” Tim replied, “Let me out!” Tim shouted at the rat to let him go but only for it to grow with Tims fear
“Y-y-y-you do kn-o-o-oow that im j-uuuuu-u-ust a rat, ri-iiiiiiiiiiii-ight? P-p-pp-pp-people think we are ju-s-s-st futile gros cre-eeee-ee-eatures or maybe we just do-o-o-don’t belong in this world”.
The two rats then merged and created a huge monster which was nothing like the monsters you would see in shows or books. This monster had blood curling teeth that looped around itself, eyes darker than black itself and blood dripping from all around its body. “The-e-e-eere is no e-e-e-escape Tim, you will P-E-E-E-E-ERISH! Tim screeched in fear as he soon fell on his back and heard the loudest slam. He would not dare to open his eyes until he heard the nagging sounds of Mr Xaveir
“What did I tell you young man! You are grounded for the rest of the week, you could have died in there.”
“Mr Xaveir!!!” screamed Tim “Thank you for saving me I thought I would be rat food!” He continued
“Well you would have been rat food, now off to bed.” as Tim was talking to Mr Xaveir about what it was like in there he then told Tim “don’t tell anyone about these rats!”
Tim’s smile immediately turned into a frown, he was extremely devastated that he could not tell people about the terrifying experience he had. “Tomorrow I’ll show you where the real rats are, ok? But for now I’m off to bed, goodnight Tim.”
“Goodnight Mr Xaveir.” replied Tim. as Tim tried to enter his slumber zone he just could not stop thinking about seeing the other rats but soon after he overthank too much he fell asleep. The next morning he was the first up and ran straight to Mr Xaveirs room and woke him up with a great big “GOOD MORNING MR XAVEIR!” The man jumped right out his bed and landed on the floor and he howled in pain. “Tim stay in your room… oh, Tim next time just a little nudge I thought someone broke into the house.”
“Sorry Mr Xaveir,” apologised Tim “I just really want to see the other rats.”
“After breakfast it’s 7 in the morning.
Tim and Mr Xaveir both got ready for the day and had breakfast, Tim had Sausages and beans and Mr Xaveir had french toast. They both finished their breakfast and Mr Xaveir took him to the attic and he turned on the lights in front of them and laid a cage “I don’t see them, where are the rats.” began Tim
“Well about that, they are not actually rats, they are cute mice. They are called Skittle and Rasy” a few seconds later a brown mouse and a white mouse came scuttling across the crooked planked floor. “AAWWWW!!!” screeched Tim “They are so cute!!!”Mr Xaveir picks them both up and let Tim carry one. “That’s Skittle your holding, she can get nervous when meeting new people but she can get used to them in no time, i’ll let you keep them in your room if you want.” Tim’s mouth dropped really wide and he immediately said yes. “Wait, what about the rats, are they here?”
