Trouble in Trainville

A monster came to Trainville today, a cat of gigantic proportions. There have long been rumors of a mountain dwelling creature, whose name is only whispered for fear of summoning it, Catzilla. This beast of doom made his ponderous way to the middle of town as residents scattered in fear. He seemed to be searching for something, but what?


To add insult to the destruction of town square, the giant feline then flopped down across the tracks, the town's only link to the outside world.


The townspeople launched an assault. After some poking and prodding, Catzilla was coaxed to his feet and made his lazy way to the edge of town. To show his disdain, he launched an airborne bioweapon into the faces of the villagers as he left.


Suddenly they realized he had captured one of their own. Trusty the policeman had sacrificed himself to lure the beast away. They were too tiny to rescue him, who could save them?


Then help arrived on the scene! Ranger Jesse J, patron saint and guardian of Trainville, came to defend his tiny kingdom. He dared the monster to return, and time stopped for a moment as the two locked in a long stare.


Ranger J moved in for his attack. He drove traincars right up onto the back of the reclining invader. At this the cat gave up the fight. He promised to behave better in the future, and not destroy the town again. Then he put his head down and went to sleep.


After the rescue, the question remained: what had brought the fabled Catzilla out of the mountains and into town? Then the villagers remembered that a train loaded with catnip had passed through a day earlier, and spilled some of its cargo.

That would be the last load of catnip to pass that way for a very long time.
