The Very Special Mouse. Part 2

They were almost all the way to the kitchen when the Very Beautiful Mouse slipped off a drawbridge that was covered in slime.  She fell and fell and fell until she smacked into the floor.   When she picked herself up, she realized where she was.  The Very Beautiful Mouse had landed in the middle of a giant maze filled with all kinds of dangerous creatures and ambushes. Without any hesitation, the brave little mouse jumped down to save her.  He barely missed landing on her, and luckily neither of them were hurt.  They both got up, brushed off their fur, straightened out their whiskers, and started walking.
Naturally, the Very Special Mouse had a great sense of direction, so he had a general idea of the way out.  Now he just had to find a way to make it.  Every once in a while they would come across something blocking their path, but none of the snares were very difficult to get around.  They easily jumped over bottomless pits of lava, dodged poison darts, and tip-toed through minefields.
 Finally they turned the last corner, and saw the exit in the distance.  But there was one more thing they had to do.  In between the two mice and the way out was a big stake pounded into the ground, and there was a long chain tied to the top, and at the other end of the chain, was a great big cat!
Now, everyone knows that cats and mice are sworn enemies for all eternity, so the Very Special Mouse knew he had a fight in front of him.  But the Beautiful Mouse had an idea.  She had been reading about the great cat charmers old and she thought she would try it.  She told the Very Special Mouse and he agreed it was worth a try as well.  They started singing a grand duet that filled their little concert hall.  At first the cat just stared hungrily at them, but after a while he started to show signs of something happening.  The growling changed to purring, and he sat down and went to sleep.  Shouting for joy, they raced through the hole in the wall and emerged in the kitchen.  They both were starving, and in no time at all they had gone through several cheeses and cakes and all kinds of delicacies.
Now what they didn't know was that the King and Queen had been secretly watching them, and were very impressed with how easily their beautiful singing put the cat to sleep.  The King and Queen wanted the two mice to stay and entertain the other Lords and Ladies whenever there was a party in the great house.
They ordered all the traps to be thrown out and burned, and had their most skillful scribe write an invitation for the Very Special Mouse and his Beautiful Mouse.  The mice would be given a brand new cupboard to live in right next to the kitchen so they could have all the food they wanted.
Of course the mice accepted at once, and from then on, they all lived happily ever after.
The End.
