Chapter 4.7: The Mouse Who Would Dare To Roar

These torn pages, with the name Penny Wynne scrawled across the top in different handwriting, were found folded in a journal containing events far removed from this point in our story. I can only infer that the words written here were the start of some future tragedy for the Good Airship Lollygag. Yet, they set the stage for our present adventure, so I have decided to include them here.

Today is the day.  I am getting those blueprints back from Boesehosen. I found just the way to do it, X.  Finally, and it took ages to set up the meeting, but X agreed to help me with this endeavor.  He even commented on how impressed he was that I was able to steal those particular blueprints.  “That was no ordinary job,” he said.  “I’ve seen that Airship, it is well guarded.  You could make a great thief one day if you keep that up.”  I was actually pretty stunned when he said that.  Here was X, the greatest thief, revolutionary, saboteur the world has ever known, giving me the first compliment I’d ever received in my life.  I think when this is all done and the Peahans have paid for what they’ve done, perhaps I’ll join his Renegades and be renowned just like him.

And the Peahens will pay dearly for what they did to me.The mere thought of it makes me seeth. After years of no one, and I mean NO ONE, noticing me, I finally claw and scratch my way to landing a job with a huge world family, The Peahens. One of the biggest and richest families in the world and they said they saw my potential, they saw what I can do.

True, I never wanted to be a thief, but that was what it took for people to actually notice my worth.  I’ve become one of the best, single handedly stealing the blueprints to the most incredible, advanced airship The Good Airship Lollygag, owned by none other than the Godspeeds themselves.  I was sneaky, I was quick, in and out and no one even noticed.  I’m sure the explosion helped, but I didn’t have anything to do with that…though I probably should have.

After attaining  the blueprints I received orders to escape to Boeseburg where I was supposed to lay low until the Peahens came to me.  Instead I was met by that nasty Boesehosen  who stole MY blueprints- the blueprints that I so brilliantly stole. I warned him not to cross the Peahens, but he just laughed.  The whole thing was just a trap to get rid of me after I had done my job!

Once again I was a pawn to be used and forgotten!  But NO! Not this time.  No, those Peahans are going to remember me.  They aren’t going to forget about me because I’m going to make them fear me.  When they hear a creak in the middle of the night they will pray that it isn’t me.

X and his team  should already be here in Boeseburg.  Perhaps I should quit writing and get ready to meet up with his group.  This is it Penny. You have X’s attention, show him the extent of your capabilities. I will secure my spot in his group for the future. I won’t be ignored anymore!
