3.0 backwards cat

3.0
Whilst walking through a deserted town that had been vandalised and covered in graffiti after it had been a victim of a riot, Mr Mike sensed that someone was following him watching everything that he was doing. He continued on his way, but was becoming more and more wary of someone coming closer and closer to him. Having thought for 10 minutes about how he could lose his follower, Mr Mike turned many seemingly random corners whilst all the time knowing where they were leading to, he turned round the last corner but saw that there were people ahead, so stopped to lean on the window of a bank so he could think about what he should do next.

In their now high tech base, Bean Cake Kid was playing a game with the other younger members of the newly found training program when Bean Boy called him over to ask a favour. It was explained to Bean Cake Kid that one of their friends was having second thoughts about something important and that, whilst this information couldn’t be shared with him, he could make a use of himself by transporting The Ball round to this person’s house as The Ball was to talk to him about it. Not being allowed to know the exact details about what was happening, Bean Cake Kid had put The Ball in a bag on his back and set off speeding along on his bike. He came to a particularly busy road and went to cross it, but what he didn’t see coming along the road was a meercat on a penny farthing.

Mr Mike had no idea where he was or how he had got there but he thought “At least I’m no longer being followed”. He appeared to be on the other side of the bank window, but it was no longer a bank. Instead it seemed to be just a glass window with nothing on the other side, and plenty of weird sights on the side that he was on. The first thing he noticed was something that looked like a giant hammer. He tried to walk towards it, but as he wasn’t standing on anything particular, he didn’t see how he could achieve this. He found, however, that something that felt like a combination of swimming and flying moved him where he wanted to go. As he moved towards the hammer, it started to swing through the air. He shifted his gaze towards where he thought it was swinging and saw a giant nail, on the same scale as the giant hammer. He followed the nail until its sharp tip and felt sorry for the man whose back it was heading for. Hearing a sludgy squirting sound Mr Mike looked around for the source of the noise. Seeing a hand holding the giant hammer he did a swimming action towards it and discovered that the person, if it could be called a person, had a large torso, small legs and a square head. On top of which was a regular size person holding a toothpaste tube that was the same size as him. He was using this as a gun to shoot someone who was sitting at a computer quite a distance away. Just above the shooters head, Mr Mike saw another odd sight. A toothbrush was hovering there. He was just wondering why the toothbrush was there when a TV landed on it, stopping it from landing on the shooters head. It appeared that someone didn’t like the shooter, and had thrown a TV at him, just to have his plan thwarted by a floating toothbrush. Mr Mike was astonished to see that the person who had thrown the TV was being strangled by having a noose round their neck being used as a lead. The other end of the noose was being held by someone who Mr Mike thought that he recognised. He made his way towards what he thought was The Bored Guy, but as he got closer noticed several distinct differences. Rather than having “Bored” on his hat, the word “Fuck” was there instead and he was bleeding from his eyelid. After being confused about this for a few seconds, Mr Mike noticed what appeared to be thought bubbles coming away from the noose holders head. He followed the thought bubbles until they stopped. And saw that the words “nothing .. empty space” featured in the final one. He took out one of his spanners, and threw it at the man. Being mildly retarded meant that the spanner missed its target completely and, not wanting to waste any more spanners, Mr Mike looked around and thought that he would follow the steadily dripping blood. After a few minutes of floating downwards, he saw a small umbrella and realised that it was being held by a small man, who had the appearance of a hamster running around in his wheel, as he was on what appeared to be an upside down unicycle. Following the upside down unicycle, Mr Mike found that there was a man riding the unicycle upside down whilst doing a handstand on a tall thin wall that had a road painted on to one of its sides. Mr Mike looked away from the wall just in time to see a figure run head first into the wall and stop dead in his tracks with his head on the wall rather than falling over. He then proceeded to drop many sharp objects, including knives and saws, upon the group of little people that were gathered below him. At this point, Mr Mike realised he was back where he began and saw the nail moving steadily closer to the poor man with his head against the wall, just as a mysterious voice said “Here doing you are what?”.
