When you leave the French Town, there are two places to choose; the first one is the French Fields (a filler place just to fight against weaker enemies), and the Tunnel of Cats (next place in the game's story). So let's choose the second option!!
Mera Salamin: Hey, heroes!! Look at this beautiful cave!!
Indus Tarbella: Still missing the Crystal Cave, huh?
Mera Salamin: Yeah... but this one is a tunnel filled with cats!!
Molly Blyndeff: Awwwww...
Mera Salamin: Then let's go to find them!!
This new dungeon called the Tunnel of Cats (which is a cave, don't let the name confuse you!!) starts with a straight path which is a cave filled with some bats... that reminds of the Bat Cave at the end of Chapter 3. Said path finishes with a zone which has the previously mentioned cats (there are 44, FOURTY-FOUR!!)... all of them fitting into a giant cup of tea!!
Ramsey Murdoch: Huh... are you sure you want to keep all of them?
Mera Salamin: Awwwww... yesssss...
Cat 1: We are a total of 44 cats!!
Mera Salamin: Forty-four? Thank you for the information!!
Cat 2: But we must help us not to fall from this giant cup of tea!!
Mera Salamin: *sees how the cup is managing not to fall* O-okay, I'll try to save all of you!!
The fourty-four cats finishes being fell off from the giant cup of tea, but Mera succesfully picks up one of them. The other had been escaped, while the giant cup of tea is still perfectly, as it fortunately didn't fell off!!
Mera Salamin: Little cat, are you okay?
Cat 1: Yeah, I'm okay!!
Ramsey Murdoch: But where did the rest of them escaped?
Cat 1: They just decided to escape to the rest of the cave, which is behind me and the cup!!
Mera Salamin: Okay, I'll return with all of them!!
Cat 1: Good luck, I hope the cup doesn't try to fall down again!!
Mera, Ramsey and the rest of eight playable characters enters the zone behind the cat and the cup, which resulted to look like an enormous cave zone with a swimming pool, where the cats were shown hiding themselves to the rest of rooms (as cats doesn't like to be wet). Then, our heroes must recover all cats (the counter already says 1/44) to clear this dungeon. Each one of these rooms includes more enemies, so remember to rescue all of those little kittens before you continue advancing into the game!! But before, let's see the Part 2/4 of all of the playable characters' Combined Attacks in this game!!
8/28) Giovanni + Sylvie = Nightmare Giovanni (Sylvie uses his Nightmare Fuel to decrease all enemies' stats for one turn. Then, Giovanni makes 12 fake hits on Sylvie to charge his lucky 13, which does severe damage to one enemy)
9/28) Giovanni + Mera = Lava Crystal Rain (Giovanni uses Teleports Behind You to jump high while he's holding Mera. Then, they start throwing "lava grenades" and crystal rains to all enemies. Finally, they land on them with a kick to do a little bit of extra damage)
10/28) Giovanni + Indus = Lava Barrier (Indus creates a barrier; then, Giovanni carves it with his baseball bat to add his "lava grenade", which is actually his tomato soup. Finally, Giovanni uses his bat again to throw the "giant bowl of soup" to attack all enemies, which has a chance of also burning them)
11/28) Giovanni + Percy = Lava Tower (Percy builds a tower where Giovanni starts throwing "lava grenades" to all enemies)
12/28) Giovanni + Ramsey = Golden Baseball (Ramsey turns Giovanni's bat into gold, so Giov will do 12 fake hits to Ram. Finally, the 13rd strike will do severe damage to one enemy)
13/28) Giovanni + Zora = Deadly and Age-changed (Zora age-changes an enemy, so Giovanni will do 12 fake hits to Zora. Finally, Giovanni defeats the enemy with a finishing 13rd strike)
14/28) Sylvie + Mera = Nightmare Crystals (Sylvie uses Nightmare Fuel to lower the enemies' stats. Then, Mera does a finishing move, which is a crystal rain that deals a lot of damage to said enemies)
Once the heroes have rescued all of the 44 cats (and they have returned to that giant cup), a conversation will start, just what everyone had excepted right now!!
Cat 1: Awww, thank you for rescuing all of us!!
Mera Salamin: It is an honor to have rescued all of these cute little kittens!!
Indus Tarbella: They're not kittens, but-
Mera Salamin: I know, I already know that they're grown cats, but I just wanted to be cute with them!!
Cat 23: If you want to swim in the pool, you can!! We will not need your money to access there!!
Mera Salamin: Awww, that sounds purrfect!!
Cat 27: It's okay, see you someday!!
The heroes returns to the swimming pool's zone, but now there is a wooden boat with them. What's going on?
Mera Salamin: Huh? Why is this wooden boat here?
Dr. Sylvester Ashling: Hmmm... it could mean something suspicious is being planned here...
Mera Salamin: Was it maybe the reason why the cats avoided the pool... other than them hating water?
Dr. Sylvester Ashling: I don't know, but we can only discover this if we do the risk...
Giovanni Potage: Don't worry, we will defeat all of those upcoming boss battles while we are going down the river!!
Dr. Sylvester Ashling: Giovanni, don't believe in those boss ba- well, maybe yes...
Mera Salamin: Then is it okay to sit down in the boat?
Giovanni Potage: *hitting Mera with his bat, so she falls down in the boat* YES!!
They all finish sitting down in the boat, but just what Giovanni excepted (or maybe just what he wanted); it is actually a river where they are going down, but fortunately there is only one boss battle instead of many!!
Giovanni Potage: Hehe, defeating this giant octopus will be TOO EASY!!
Mera Salamin: Or maybe not!! And next time, stop hitting me with your bat, you Giov!!
Dr. Sylvester Ashling: Ugh, who even cares for Giov?
Molly Blyndeff: He was our first ally, don't ruin him from one day to another one!!
Dr. Sylvester Ashling: Well, if he wants to me to trap him with my yo-yo's strings... ugh, fine...
Sylvie manages to trap one of the octopus' tentacles with his yo-yo, but it breaks, so Sylvie shouts "MY YO-YO!!" and then uses Nightmare Fuel on him, so he gets burned and Syl gets his broken yo-yo pieces back. Sadly, Molly is scared because of her pyrophobia, but fire will make the battle easier, so Giov will defeat the octopus faster!! And did you ever forgotten that said octopus is actually a boss battle!? Yeah, his moveset only consists on attacking you eith your tentacles and throwing some poisonous ink on you, but that's all!! After you defeated him, the river gets to an end and they reach a new cave zone, which has a door and some villagers congratulating the heroes...
Theraphy Town's Mayor: Wow, we did finally find someone who defeated the octopus!!
Dr. Sylvester Ashling: Huh... thanks, but I just need some Healing Potion right now...
Theraphy Town Villager 1: It's okay, we can give you one for free if you want is a reward!!
Dr. Sylvester Ashling: E-exactly... *falls down*
Theraphy Town Villager 2: *brings a Healing Potion from his pocket* Ta-da!! Now catch it and open the cork!! *throws the bottle*
Dr. Sylvester Ashling: *catches the bottle* T-thank you, guy...
Indus Tarbella: Just give me a sec!! *picks up the bottle and opens it while Sylvie is standing up*
Dr. Sylvester Ashling: F-finally, time to rest with some healing theraphy!! *starts drinking it, but slowly (as -almost- always he does)*
Molly Blyndeff: The fact is that Sylvie just feels too happy when he drinks one of these!!
Theraphy Town Mayor and both villagers: Awwwww...
Sylvie and the rest of heroes enters the door that's behind the mayor and the villagers. Looks like they just entered Theraphy Town, a beautiful place where Chapter 12 starts... and yeah, Chapter 11 just finished!!
