The Two Kittens Lose Their Mittens


I admit it. Madison and Mojo have really done it- in the adventure world. Madison and Mojo lost something so valuable, they might get kicked out of the family. Now before we get to the end, let's start at the beginning. Here's how our story begins. It all started with Madison, Mojo and I just playing around. Then, My Dad gave Madison and Mojo something. "Here Madison and Mojo, some mittens for you to 'play with'." My Dad said. "Cool Mittens!" Madison said. "They don't fit on your paws!" I said to those feisty kittens. "But they do fit on our heads!" Madison said. And with that, she put a mitten on her head. Mojo did the same thing with the other mitten. "Morons." I thought. I went over to Dad. Dad picked me up.


"I hope Madison and Mojo are being careful with those million dollar mittens!" Dad said. "Million dollar?" I thought. Then, I realized if Madison and Mojo did something bad to those mittens- they could be kicked out of the house. I squirmed out of My Dad's lap. I went to warn Madison and Mojo. They were on one of the basement stairs, the neon blue- like mittens on their heads. "Madison and Mojo, be careful with those mittens, they're worth a million dollars!" I said. "Cool, let's trade these things in for a MILLION DOLLARS!" Madison said. "Oh no you don't!" I said, grabbing Madison and Mojo. "Look" I said, "unless you want to be kicked out of the family, you can sell those mittens." "Okay, We'll keep them!" Mojo said. I sighed in relief.


So, that night, Madison and Mojo and I got some sleep. I could only sleep for five minutes, because five minutes later, I was awakened by this sound: "AHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHH". "I wonder what it is this time." I thought. I went to the living room. The sound was only Madison and Mojo. "What is it guys?" I asked. "Lucy, thank goodness you're here!" Madison said. "Yeah, we lost the mittens!" Mojo said. "YOU WHAT?!" I asked. "Exactly, we lost the mittens." The two kittens said. "We have to find those mittens before dawn!" I said. I started to shout out commands. "We have to split up!" I said, "Madison, go upstairs, Mojo, look in the basement, and I will check this floor." "You mean this-" Madison started. "GO! LOOK!" I demanded, interrupting Madison. Madison dashed up the stairs, and Mojo ran down to the basement. I went to look in my brother's room.


I looked in the closet. I saw dirty laundry, comuter game boxes, and my brother's private "journal", but no mittens. I checked under the bed. Nothing. Same as the bathroom. Well, I found a beverage in the toilet, but that was it. In Sarah's room, all I could find were barbies, or dolls, or stuffed bears and stuff like that. In the dining room, you could find a table, chairs, paper work, and a snapshot of My Mom and Dad at their wedding. I went to check the living room. Nothing. Next place to search, was the kitchen. I looked in the refrigerator and freezer. All I found in there was food, another word for snack. I went and got a chair, and then pushed it near the counter. I used the chair like a stool to get on the counter top. I found a few beggin' strips, and ate those. Then I rememnered what Carter would tell me: "Retracing your steps is useless. Just go look in the places your are 100% sure that the you're looking for is in there." So, I was 100% sure the mittens were in the toaster. Nothing but burned toast. I looked in the cabinets. Nothing but silverware, plates, cups, chips, cookbooks, or cooking aprons. I started to give up. There was only one room left for me to check: the closet. I looked. Nothing.


I went to see how Mojo was doing. He was done with his searching. "All I found was stuff, bags, lint, and 37 cents." Mojo said. "Let's go check on Madison!" I suggested. Mojo and I ran upstairs. Madison was in our parents' closet. "I found them!" Madison said. From a coat pocket, Madison got two mittens. "Alright Madison, let's get it on the dining room table!" I said. Madison placed the mittens on the table.


Then next day, at dawn, Dad was thrilled to see the mittens in good condition. "Well, Madison and Mojo, you're both safe" I said. "Well, I'm happy to still be here!" Mojo said.


I was just glad Madison and Mojo- were alright!
