The Adventures of Periwinkle & Stinky: Part XV
Periwinkle arrived at Stinky’s house just before bedtime the night prior to their adventure. Stinky had told her they would be leaving prior to sun up, and she wanted to be certain to get enough rest before they took off.
After a peaceful sleep, the two tabbies had a hardy breakfast of Fancy Feast and jumped into the teleportation tunnel. When they arrived at their destination, they boarded a bus. It was still too dark for Periwinkle to see the words on the side of the bus. She did notice some other furry occupants were already on board.
Periwinkle, still sleepy, put her head on Stinky’s shoulder and promptly fell asleep. It seemed like only minutes had passed when he was shaking her awake.
Still dark out, Stinky took Periwinkle’s paw and led her to a building. Then she immediately recognized their locale.
“Hey, Stinky,” she said, “This is Ding Dong Sheep School and home of the Tuesday Teaser. What are we doing here?”
Stinky replied, “We are waiting to be the official presenters of this week’s Teaser. Teddy’s mom, Pam, will let us know when it is time, so don’t fall asleep. We can quiz each other on geography while we wait. Maybe we’ll have the opportunity to be the first with the correct guess of the location.”
As they settled into their desks in the Ding Dong classroom, Periwinkle was a bit confused and asked, “But won’t we know the locale before we even leave here?”
Stinky answered, “No we won’t. Mom Pam will set the coordinates in our tunnel before we leave.”
“Well this should be very interesting,” replied Periwinkle.
Only a few minutes later, Mom Pam stuck her head in the classroom and told them she had just set the coordinates in their tunnel and it was time to leave.
The two tabbies jumped in and were gone in a flash!

Welcome back!
Periwinkle and Stinky came to rest in a snowy field in front of a quaint chapel.
Periwinkle asked Stinky, “Do you have any idea where we are?”
“Not a clue,” replied Stinky.
“Even though we are first to see this, it doesn’t seem as if we’ll be making a guess as to where we are,” said Periwinkle.
Stinky grabbed Periwinkle’s paw and replied, “Then let’s explore.”
Periwinkle was ready for that, and the two headed toward the chapel. Unfortunately the doors were locked and even with Periwinkle standing on Stinky’s shoulders, she could not see inside.
When Periwinkle jumped down she said, “If we get married some day, let’s do it here, but in the spring or summer. It’s way too cold in winter.”
Stinky blushed and dipped his head. Not being sure of his lifespan, due to his disorder, he had never even thought about marriage. But he took Periwinkle’s paws in his and whispered, “Of course.”
Periwinkle pulled her paws away, started jumping up and down and clapping, and then gave Stinky a big kiss.
After a little more exploring and a quick snowball fight (neither managed to hit the other), the two tabbies decided it was much too cold to spend any additional time in exploration and jumped in their tunnel for the trip home.
Not needing to return to school until the next day in order to find out where they had traveled, Stinky set the tunnel coordinates for his house.
When they arrived, Stinky’s mom had a nice lunch of Fancy Feast and Temptations ready for them. Of course, Stinky’s Fancy Feast had his medicine in it, which didn’t make him very happy. But he ate it all so that neither his mom nor Periwinkle would be upset with him. And he didn’t want to miss out on treats!
After a short nap, it was time for Periwinkle to return home.
Before she left, she asked Stinky, “Do you think the Cheer Team will let us do the cheer with them tomorrow when they announce the winners?”
Stinky replied, “That sure would be fun. We’ll ask the team and the professors if it would be okay.”
With Stinky assigned to call the Cheer Team as well as Professors Sammy and Teddy, Periwinkle and Stinky said their good-byes with hugs and whisker kisses. Periwinkle sadly entered her tunnel where she was gone in a whoosh!
The End
