Meow Invasion

Howie was walking around like he always did. Usually, he'd be in the courtyard playing Tag or Dodgeball, but no one seemed to be interested in playing at this time.

The Sandbox was filled with guests, who were always just standing there. They weren't doing anything, which was strange at first, but everyone eventually got used to it. Whenever Howie walked past the Sandbox, he would occasionally get a weird feeling of being watched by the guests. He always brushed it off, assuming it was just his "intorverted-ness" kicking in.

Howie decided to walk through the neighborhood. There were a lot of Basic houses and one of them belonged to his friend Meow, who was a grey tabby cat. He realized that he hadn't visited this friend in a while, so he decided to knock on his door and invite himself in. He walked up to the familiar house, which was at the very end of the street. He raised his paws up to the door and knocked on it, but there wasn't any response even after waiting for minutes.

"Nobody's here? Oh well.."

As Howie turned around to go back, a grey cat suddenly appeared in front of him, briefly giving him a mini heart attack.

"AHHHHHH!!"

Meow: "Howie! What are you doing here? Let's go inside, quickly!"

Howie: "HUH? Why-? Uh- ok then.."

Meow hastily pulled Howie inside his house with a concerned look on his face. Meow seemed to be breathing heavily. Curious, Howie asked what happened to him. Meow looked at him with fear in his eyes.

Meow: "It's a long story. Basically, there were some guests who kept following me around. I first saw them in a Tag game and I thought they were just innocent, harmless guests. But when they were the taggers, they targeted me and me ONLY. Then, after the Tag game, I went to my home and they followed me in here. I don't even know how they got in, but they did."

Howie: "Ok? Maybe they're just alts of your friend or something."

Meow: "No, I'm not finished yet. After that, they left for a while and I thought I was safe, so I locked my house so they wouldn't get in again. I relaxed for a good 30 minutes when all of a sudden, I heard banging on my door. I opened it but since there was no one there, I turned back around to go to sleep. They were there."'

Howie: "Who?"

Meow: "The guests! They appeared out of nowhere in my living room and they were just standing there looking at me. I froze since I didn't know what to do.. and.. and.. they all did the "Angry" action and banged against the floor. I didn't know what was going on and then more and more guests joined my room even when it was locked. They all laughed at the exact same time and one of them came over to me. They told me with a blank expression on their face, "There is no hiding." I fled and ran to the Mine because I didn't know what to do... "

Howie: "Wait, so there were just a bunch of guests here earlier? Why didn't you tell me?"

Meow: "I didn't know where you were and I saw the guests walking slowly toward me when I was running to the Mine, so I didn't have any time to look for you!" Meow recalled, his voice trembling as he tried to keep himself together.

Howie: "Woah, woah, calm down. It's okay. They're not here anymore and maybe it was just a big troll from some weirdo. I'm sure no one has anything against you. Maybe the mayor can deal with this?

Howie: "I tried to report the issue to the mayor a while ago, but I couldn't find him. I asked the police and the other officers but they didn't know either."

They were both stumped. They didn't know what else they could do other than to warn others, so that's what they decided to do. Heading out, they closed the door behind them. Little did they know, a peculiar figure was watching them from the corners of Meow's house. The grey tabby watched expressionlessly through the window as Howie and Meow ran off to tell the others.
