Soot

Her tail twitched in support and approval of Tiger-Lily's suggestion.

He 'Mrr'ed his assent.

The plan started. The cats just had to implement it. The room was easy enough. The burden's could be distracted. But?

"Either myself or Shadow.. or maybe both of us can go in ahead of the others as we cannot be seen so easily and get that window open. Once the burden moves, then the rest come quickly."

She looks at Soot and Shadow.

She gave a cat smile. "I can distract the Burden."

Shadow

The two-dimensional cat concurred, then began slipping underneath the door.

"Both. One of us will work it out."

"Then as I can't slide under doors, I'll go invisible and wait for your distraction Soot."

She smiles at the small cat, ready to apply her power.

She had scoped out some hiding places even most cats couldn't get to. Those would serve as places of concealment if needed. Heading in the opposite end of the building, the distractions would start.

Little attracted Burden attention as much as things crashing to the ground. That was where she would begin.

Moving to the other end of the building she found a likely target. It was some kind of noise making device on a high shelf. It might take some teasing but she was sure that she could cause it to fall and make the desired distraction.

The other animals took the cue from the other animals and hid as best they could.

Tiger-Lily

She uses her ability to not be seen and positions herself close to the burden's door but off to one side so she can avoid contact if and when he emerges, close enough though so that she can slip in behind him to rejoin Shadow. Somehow she must also ensure that the door remains open so the other cats can get in too.

She hopes that Soot will be OK.

She looked around to find some good places to hide where a Burden might not think to look. Just in case. Then Soot started the distractions with a shove.

The thing proved to be much heavier than it seemed initially. Yet the small black cat with determination was able to shove it off of the high shelf. The resulting crash was very loud to her sensitive pointed ears.

Behind the thing burdens sat behind to make scratching sounds with the long skinny things they picked up, rather than claws, she could easily hide. There were many different spots that would allow her to evade being scene by an angry burden which undoubtedly it would be.

She heard one burden exclaim to the other "what was that?" in a loud voice. Then the clomping of their clumsy feet as both of them came down the hall towards the little room where the distraction had been made.

The other animals crouched, laid, and generally tried to not move nor make any sounds as the burdens moved away from them. It was obvious that the burdens had no idea anything was amiss, but then did they ever?

Shadow

The instant the Burden was out and looking away, the shadow of a cat flitted betwixt door and window, giving it a quick look to see what irritations prevented it's easy opening.

Tiger-Lily

As soon as the door opened and she had room, her invisible presence ran quietly into the room and looked for both Shadow and the window, intending to get their quickly so she could help.

The window was an easy leap from the top of the scratching surface. It was even open just a little bit towards the bottom. Cool night air wafted inward to ruffle their fur. A bit of applied cat pressure and the smaller animals would easily be able to escape. The larger ones, maybe not, might take more finesse.

Seeing the window is already partially open, she turns back quickly and brings the other cats ready for the escape, trusting that Soot will keep the burdens occupied.

Shadow

Time to apply that pressure and clear the way. Getting between the upper and lower parts of the opening, he reverted from two to three dimensions, aiming to push the upper part further upwards by doing so.

Shadow is able to secure the movement of the window, however a consequence of his action is that he drops out of the window first.

The cats being the most intelligent of the captured animals make their way to the clawing surface and out through the now open window. The less sentient creatures are slower and wait their turns.

Tiger-Lily

She encourages all of the others to exit is as fast and as orderly way as she can. She keeps an eye out for the return of the burdens and intends to wait for Soot.

The burden followed the errant noises as he was meant to. Thus leaving the opportunity for the animals to continue the escape. So far it was working.

Soot notes that her contribution is assisting in no small way.

Animals began to climb from the now open clear thing above the platform to scatter things. The dogs were having a hard time to keep from barking out of joy.

Shadow

From his position outside, he watches the escape, swatting the flank of anything without the brains to run out of sight. He considers returning back within, but figures the others have it covered at this point.

Soot

Keeping alert, and ahead of the burden, she will make more noises as needed to keep the distraction going.

Tiger-Lily

She continues to urge the escapees to hurry, concerned to get as many out as they can. She hopes that Soot can make her way here also so that she can be sure her friend escapes too.
