Sean leads the group to the building where the portal room is located.

As they walk past a large billboard, Sean points out:

"Hey, Charles - look at this!"

Turning toward the billboard, Charlie sees his face on display next to the
word "WANTED."

"How - umm, what did you do??'

Sean asks, giggling.

"Oh.. well.. uhm.."

"My first owner - I kinda threw her towards the wall to escape..."

Charlie looks at the billboard with his eyes wide open.

All of them stare at him, before bursting out in laughter.

"SHE- SHE IS ALIVE THOUGH!"

Charlie yells into the masses.

"One reason more to not get caught.."

Theodore says.

For about 20 minutes they sneak around the streets, trying not to get caught.

And finally, they stand in front of the building "Nine Lives Inc".

It's around 10 PM now and it starts to rain.

"Okay, here goes nothing."

Theodore says out loud and he walks towards the entrance.

"Woah, woah, woah, woah! Is this- really dangerous..?"

Charlie asks nervous.

"Of course, blondie! Those cats have some sharp claws. I can tell-"

A VERY scratched guy yells at him.

"Blo- BLONDIE?? BRO-"

Charlie responses.

"Geez, guys, seriously? Can we just hurry up and get into the building?"

Theodore, clearly frustrated, makes his point bluntly.

"HE'S RIGHT! THEO'S RIGHT! JUST SHUT UP AND GET IN!!"

Charlie yells out, laughing evilly in the middle of his sentence.

The guy looks at Charlie like he's crazy (which, let's be real, he totally is).

Then, without wasting any more time, the group sneaks inside the building.

Sean leads the group, but to his suprise, a cat sits at the reception when they arrive.

"Oh... Guys," he whispers out, surprised.

It was late at night when they arrived, so nobody should be here.

When they take a closer look, it seems the cat is asleep.

(Btw it has super tiny glasses :3)

"Now, be SUPER quiet. Be more quiet than ever before. Turn up the silence. Be a mou-"

"We have to shut up. We get it. Gosh dang it."

Charlie interrupts Theodore.

Theo gives Charlie a annoyed look, and then looks at Sean to see where he'll go next.

Sean and the others sneak to a door that says "ONLY FOR EMPLOYEES".

"Only for employees?" Charlie says sarcastically. "We should totally get in there. We need to get in there, now. Immediately."

"You're not funny, Charlie.."

"YES I A-"

Sean covers Charlie's mouth to keep him quiet.
He looks around with a serious look, to see if anyone heard Charles.

Then Sean gets close to Charlie's ear.

"We will FEED you to the cats if you do that EVER again."

"...Geez, I'm sorry, chill..."

After giving him the warning, he looks out around the room once more, just to make sure their little disruption did not attract any unwanted attention.

Once satisfied, he removes his hand and the group proceeds through the door.
