Adbenture at the Castle

It is nighttime and most of the cats have fallen asleep from the eating and
dancing at the reception. O T sees that Harri and Piglett are asleep on
their cushions. He goes quietly thru a archway door of the banquet room.

In the hallway, Sundance, Chester and Ranger Dude are waiting for him. They
high 5 all around and then head down a long hallway. They pass armor in the
shape of warrior cats from long ago. They open a old very creaky door and
look down the long flight of steps.
O T waits for the others to catch up with him and the go down the steps in a
group. As they get to the bottom, they hear a low rumbling noise. One of
them tells the others “that is just da win going fru da hallz�.

Further down the passage an eerie blue lite is seen. The man cats tip toe
down to the door and look in.

[Ranger, trying not to look too much like a scaredy-cat, slinks
cautiously through the door. OT comes right beside him with the other
cats following close behind.

When they get through the door they find themselves in a long hallway
stretching off to the left and the right. There are perhaps a dozen
heavy, iron-banded wooden doors. Between each heavy door an oil lamp is
mounted to the wall. The lamps are not burning, indeed the whole scene
looks to be so old that there probably hasn't been any oil in the lamps
for decades, but an eerie blue glow comes from the lamps anyway.]

Is... is... is this furry weird, or is it mineown imagination?

Dat is true. OT, mayhaps wez could ask dat MacGyver kitty is him knows of
any hoomins named Mackey.

[Samuel Redcat, who had followed the group quietly, slinks forward. He
has been quietly pop-catting - whenever Rudy would move even the
slightest Sammy would instantly pop backwards 6 inches or so, then creep
forward again to where he had been.]

Sammy: I can go find himself an ask!

[With that, Sammy turns and slinks very quickly back out of the room. The
assembled cats hear the sound of normally graceful Sam thundering up the
stairs.

A few minutes later they hear the distinctive step-thump of MacGyver
hobbling down the stairs. He shoves the door open wide and strides in.]

MacGyver: What's this I hear aboot a ghost? You, in blue - ye're a
ghostie, are ye? Well what are you doing in my castle?

Ranger [speaking very quickly, trying to disguise how much he's
trembling]: Him sez dat him did wrong to anuffer cat, and him has to find
hoomins related to da ones him lifed wif to confess, an dere name is
Mackey, and dey was aroun here somewheres.

MacGyver: The only Mackey's here aboot used to live in an old castle a
couple of miles from here. It's so old and tumble-down that no hoomins
live in it any more, and there's not even a road going to it. The Mackeys'
that I know live in a small house near the castle ruins. Would you want
me to send someone to fetch the elder of the clan?

Rudy: Yessss, pleeeze!
