One beautiful afternoon, Grandma Merry was sitting in her recliner and tending to her many cats, which consisted of Billy, Bob, Munch, Tony, Tod, Tom, Crumb, Mint, Chocolate, and Chip. She knew that she had ten cats, and didn't have a problem with it. Little did she know, someone else did.
She bent her rickety knees to place multiple bowls of soup-like wet cat food, when suddenly she heard a knock at the door. The gray hairs on her frail arms stood up. She didn't get visitors often. "This is the police." A deeper voice said from the other side of the door. She managed to hobble over to the door, cane in hand. She opened the door slowly.
"What did I do?" She said, tilting her head a bit. The policeman looked her up and down. He was surprised by her appearance. Her soft, bright, snow white curled hair and tiny smudged glasses. "Are you sure this is the right address?" She asked. "Of course!" Said another cop with a high pitched voice like an old cartoon character. "Are you positive, Stanly?" The cop with the deeper voice said, looking over to the other cop. "I'm sure, Ollie!" The cop with the higher pitched voice said. (Anyone get the Laurel and Hardy reference or am I just old?)
"Anywho, We've heard that you have too many cats." The cop that calls himself "Ollie" says. Silence. Dead Silence. "TOO MANY?!" Grandma Merry shouted in disbelief. "There's no such thing!" "Oh, yes there is!" 'Ollie' argued. "Three cats per house is the maximum." Grandma Merry sighed in shock and worry. If she wasn't there, who would take care of her little babies? Her kitties?
"And where did you get the information that I have more than three cats?" Grandma Merry said, raising a slim, white eyebrow. "Ummm.. We plead the fifth." Both cops say in synchrony. "But that's not the point." 'Stanly' said. "We could, and will, take you to court for this if you try to deny it."
(Time skip to in court cause I'm lazy :| )
BANG BANG! The judge hit his gauntlet on the podiem. He did not show a single speck of emotion on his face, his eyes peircing Grandma Merry like water, and not the good kind, no, the kind of water in the ocean, threatening to submerge you at any moment. "Merry Lyle." The judge said coldly. Grandma Merry swallowed hard, shifting her gaze away to the judge. "You plead innocent. Explain why."
"I do have ten cats, and I do know that that is over the limit, but I take care of them well." Grandma Merry said. Not wanting to get put in prison, she was grasping at straws. "And your proof?" The judge said, raising an eyebrow. Grandma Merry stayed silent. She didn't have proof. She wasn't lying, but she had to proof of it. Darn. Plus, she couldn't afford a lawyer to help her. Maybe she shouldn't have spent all that money on cat toys. "Guilty do to lack of proof." The judge said. Before she knew it, she was in jail.
(That was a pretty short chapter, huh? This isn't the type of story I will normally be doing, but here ya go anyways. I'll get the next chapter out soon! 554 words :3)
