Description
After Martha was forced back into her lamp, she knew she had to stay inside for at least another twelve hours. When she was able to get out of the lamp again, she carefully slid her head out of the lamp’s nozzle. She found herself in a car. The lamp was lying on the passenger’s seat, so Martha couldn’t see where they were going. And since Franziska was driving the car, Martha decided that it would be wise to hide again. She slipped back into the lamp.

A few hours later Martha slid out of her lamp; she was in an unfamiliar hotel room. Franziska was sleeping on the bed. Martha knew that the cat burglar would wake up easily since she gave her the senses of a cat. Still, she had to use this opportunity to get help. First, Martha slid through the wall out of the room. With a blink, she changed into casual clothes. Then she proceeded to the reception. The hotel turned out to be a small hotel in a town near Basel. Martha asks the receptionist if she could use the telephone. The receptionist agreed, and Martha called David’s mobile. But all she reached was his voice mail. Still, Martha left him a message: “David, it’s Martha. I’m in the Hotel “Zum Schwanen” in Ränggersdorf. The thief is here too. Please come and save me!” Martha finished her call and returned to her lamp. The last thing she wanted now was that Franziska would find out what she was plotting.

The next time Martha was summoned by Franziska, they were in an unfamiliar city. The sign on the large building in front of them identified it as a museum. “What evil can I do for you now, Mistress?”

“For the moment, I just want you to follow me. We're gonna break into the museum and steal the Udatschny-Diamond.” Franziska said.

“As you command!” Martha followed Franziska.

Next, Fransika went to the side of the museum and started climbing the wall. A normal person wouldn’t have been able to climb that wall, but thanks to Franziska’s first wish, she could now climb like a cat. ‘It’s not your fault. You had to grant that wish!’ Martha said to herself while she hovered behind Franziska. Their destination was the vent of the air conditioning system on one of the side walls. Franziska fetched a tool from her belt and manipulated the grid that was closing the vent. Finally, the metal bars gave way. Franziska lit a dim, electric light, then she slid into the ventilation shaft with Martha following her. From time to time, Franziska took a look on a plan of the air conditioning maze they were crawling through. At some crossroads, Franziska placed chalk marks. Finally, they arrived over a huge exhibition room. Through another grid, Martha could see paintings and showcases. Now, Franziska produced a yo-yo from her belt. She held it over the grid, then she let the yo-yo descend into the room. The yo-yo retracted and Franziska stored it away in her belt again. “That should do the job. Quick, we have to hurry.”

While Martha followed Franziska through the tunnels, she could hear the sound of footsteps on the floor. Martha assumed that it must be a watchman being alerted by some alarm system. The next stop was the surveillance room. It was empty now. Quickly, Franziska opened the grid and slipped inside. She took another piece of paper from her belt, went over to the computer and typed in a code.

“Where did you get that code from?” Martha asked.

“Let’s say that a few days ago, I visited the security firm who protects this place. I can’t waste all my wishes just to do one job, right?” Franziska replied. When she had finished her work, she climbed back into the ventilation tunnel. Taking the lead, Franziska crawled to another room of the museum. On their way, they had to stop and keep quiet, since a watchman was walking below the tunnels. Finally, they arrived at their destination. Franziska slid through the opening into a smaller exhibition room. There was only one glass case in it, containing a huge diamond. Quickly, Franziska took a glass-cutting tool from her belt and cut an opening into the case. Then, she reached inside and fetched the diamond.

While Franziska was distracted working on the glass case, Martha used the opportunity to sneak away for a bit. Just when Franziska had retrieved the diamond, Martha knocked an exhibition piece over that was standing in the next room.

“Martha! Back to me!” Franziska commanded as quick steps could be heard approaching.

Franziska had just enough time to store her tools and the diamond in her belt when a watchman with a flashlight rushed into the room. “Freeze!” he shouted, while threatening Franziska with a can of mace.

Franziskas response was ice cold: “Martha, I wish that you turn the watchman forever into a little mouse!” This was a wish Martha detested from her heart. But, still was forced to grant it. As Martha blinked, the watchman began to sink into his baggy clothes, while taking on more and more mousy features. Finally, a small mouse crawled from the empty clothes. Martha looked over to Franziska. The cat burglar was licking her lips. There was the determination of a predator in her eyes. When the mouse spotted the giant cat girl, it fled in panic to the next corner of the room. Now, Franziska’s instincts took over. The cat girl gave chase…
