Chapter 9 Saving the Band of DogZ
Down, down, down Cozmo raced towards the center of the black hole chasing down the DogZ. It was difficult to see in the black hole. He could vaguely see his way in but could not see any way out at all. Entire walls of light seemed to converge together and disappear into darkness around him. Descending at great speed he passed through many of these walls of light which didn’t light anything.
Racing toward the center of the black whole, Cozmo used his keen sense of smell and followed the scent of the DogZ. He also listened and followed the sounds of the three DogZ who were howling wildly as they spiralled downward below him. Jack in the Black was watching and his evil laughter echoed throughout the black hole accompanying the sounds of the howling DogZ.
While chasing down the DogZ and feeling a bit lost in the darkness, Cozmo found that he was not alone. Small lights began to appear all around him illuminating the space he was flying through. Moving along with him he could now see that it was the Space Bunnies lighting the way! The very same creatures who precipitated the downfall of the DogZ were now there to help Cozmo rescue them. The interdimensional creatures had arrived at Cozmo’s aid at the request of their mother Daizy, the Intergalactic Inca princess.
While descending at intergalactic speed, Cozmic Cat could now see the DogZ below him. With help from the Space Bunnies lighting the way he began to vaguely see the bodies that matched the scent he was chasing. Getting closer and closer with each moment, the figures of the DogZ appeared below him twisting and turning wildly as they clung to their guitars. Beating on the drums the feline genius was getting closer and closer until finally he had just about caught up with the DogZ.
When he was just a few feet away Cozmo shouted out to the DogZ. “Hey X! Hey Y! Hey Z! It’s me! Cozmic Cat!” There was no answer. Not only did the DogZ not answer, but to Cozmo’s great surprise, they did not move at all to greet him. Just moments ago they were twisting, turning and howling wildly below him and now all three were motionless and suspended in space. “How strange.” The feline genius said to himself as he looked at each of the DogZ floating in the middle of the black hole.
The feline genius was dumbfounded. All three DogZ were there before him hovering motionless in space. He could see each hair and whisker as if he were in a museum looking at an object on display. He knew that they were still alive because he could sense the warmth of the bodies and smell the scent of life.
All three had there eyes wide open and appeared to be alive while at the same time they were not moving or even breathing. The DogZ appeared to be suspended in space without time, hovering in darkness, in the middle of nowhere with no direction. “What will I do now?” Cozmo said to himself.
