Chapter 82: CatNap Vs Trey: The Ability To Keep Going

Trey meanwhile was in Poppy's apartment with PixieFly and MysteryMoth as they were discussing more on the mystery surrounding the double kidnappings.

“So we all know their names are Icky Licky, Maggie Mako, Rabie Baby and Simon Smoke.” Trey said, “But we're still figuring out where they're located. They can be anywhere.”

“Yes, that's true.” MysteryMoth said,

“By the way, Poppy, any updates on DogDay and CatNap?”

“...Not yet.” Poppy replied,

“That fight must have taken a toll on you.” PixieFly said,

“Same for DogDay's behavior all of a sudden… I don't know what caused him to act so strange…”

Poppy’s phone started to ring.

“Oh, who could this be?” She wondered as she looked at who's calling, “CatNap?”

“CatNap is calling you?” Trey asked her,

“Yeah, hold on, sorry guys.”

“No worries, madame.” MysteryMoth said, “Take your time.”

Poppy went to her bedroom to call CatNap in private.

“Yes, is this CatNap?” She asked him,

“Yes, it's me.” CatNap replied on the phone, “Is Trey here with you? I want to talk to him.”

“Hmmm… I suppose you wanna chat with him about where you stand currently. Did you make up with DogDay?”

“Nope, not yet.”

“...Alright. You may come to Sunshine Valley to meet with us right now.”

“Got it, thanks.”

“You're welcome.”

Later, CatNap arrived in Poppy's apartment as he was greeted by Poppy and the others.

“I'm here.” He said,

“Welcome, CatNap.” Poppy said, “You may make yourself comfortable.”

CatNap sat on the floor.

“...Ok, whatever floats your boat.” Poppy said, “We won't judge.”

“So, what do you wanna talk about?” PixieFly asked him,

“I want to try and help you guys.” CatNap replied, “But without DogDay involved. I know he's been acting strange, but I think that might have something to do with the double kidnappings. Someone else must have been behind his change of behavior for a moment.”

Everyone else was shocked.

“Huh, that's an odd prediction.” Trey said,

“It is…” MysteryMoth said, “So there might be someone connected to not just the double kidnappings and the murder, but also to changing DogDay's behavior for a short period of time…”

“I know I don't have evidence, but…” CatNap said, “It's only a feeling.”

“It is one of your predictions…” Poppy said, “But we can't tell if it's gonna end up coming true or not.”

“That too.”

“Anything else on your mind?” Trey asked him,

“I want to keep going with you guys. I want to help out and put this case to bed. I want to help my friends because they've been through it all when someone mind controlled his emotions, more specifically me, Bobby and Crafty…”
