They all went outside. Then Sweetie started speaking. “See those thick mud walls over there?” She pointed to the sides of the disco. Pipi nodded. “They’re for our protection. If any people happen to pass by, we open some doors inside of the disco, which leads to these walls, and we pop inside and keep quiet. When they’re gone, we continue. You see, every guinea here do the same thing. And the houses too, they’re the same method we use.”
“Oh,” said Pipi, definitely understanding. “I see.”
“Have you got any money to spend?” asked Sweetie.
“Money? You mean, you use real money here?” asked Pipi, confused.
“Nah!” laughed Fuzzy. “We use sunflower seeds.”
“Then I’m lucky.” said Pipi. “I collect seeds, so I might have the sunflower seeds.”
Pipi checked her seeds. To her luck, she had many sunflower seeds. They went shopping and Pipi bought a stylish disco skirt. Meanwhile, Momo was buying a T-shirt for himself, and a hat! Pipi also bought a purple bow. As they went in again, Pipi and Momo, not together though, change their dresses. They bumped into each other at the hallway and looked at each other in surprise. "Wow, you look cool!" exclaimed Momo. "You too!" said Pipi.
"Come on let's go and rehearse for the show!" said Momo.
"Show?"
"You see, this is a disco cum music show! And there's lots of time!"
They went and Rock and Rody taught Pipi how to dance and sing. They chose a song called "Let's Rock This Party" made by Rock and Rody themselves. They were soon ready to go as guinea pigs gathered together.
Momo and Pipi went through the hallway, as the others were fixing the disco light. Pipi was too nervous as this was her first disco. "Don't fret," consoled Momo. "It's alright. Look I've a gift for you." He handed over a small wrapped box to Pipi. As she opened it, on the pink tissue lay a beautiful necklace, with a locket that can be opened. She opened it and saw two signs of luck: The Chinese Yin-and-Yang and a lucky clover.
"I have a gift for you too," she said, shyly as she held out a package. To Momo's surprise, it was a tattoo of another lucky symbol- a ladybird! What a coincidence!
each of them thought.
The show went on very well, even better than they expected. Pipi danced well and so did the others. After the dance, Momo squeezed Pipi's hand and whispered. "Well done!"
Pipi was astonished to see some guinea pigs holding out their books for autographs. "Go on, this is normal," said Momo and Pipi signed the books:
They went to their rooms.
"Hey, Pipi, how didja enjoy your first show?" asked Rody as he and the others walked in.
"I'm so grateful to you all for letting me join!" smiled Pipi, shyly.
Everyone was happy that day. Momo and Pipi stayed for one day, then decided to go back to their field. "Well, bye guys!" called out Momo, early in the next morning. "See ya later!"
They continued on their way. "If Rock and Rody likes you, that means they took you too in their group," said Momo to Pipi. "They told me you did well and we could go there whenever we like."
"Very kind of them," said Pipi. Suddenly both of them were greeted with fierce growling. Four stray dogs were in the streets, growling at them. "Err, guys?" said Momo, uncertainly. From nowhere sprang Rock, Rody and Furry. With Momo, they gave each of the dogs a hard smack at the back of their heads. The dogs collapsed to the ground.
"Are they... dead?" asked Pipi, scared.
"Nah, just fainted," replied Momo. "Thanks for the help, guys! You're the best!"
They waved goodbye and then set off again.
They reached their field and put down their bags loaded with gifts Sweetie, Pretty and Fuzzy had given them. Pipi went to the quietly flowing spring. She sighed happily. "At last I belong somewhere," she told herself. "I'm not me anymore."
Momo joined her. "Me too," he said, surprisingly. Pipi looked back in surprise. "You?" she asked. "But- but you have friends."
"Yeah, but no one so close to hear my secrets."
"I can help you," said Pipi.
"Alright but I'll tell you sometime later."
They rested in the soft grass for a while.
After Momo and Pipi woke up, they decided to go to the disco again. "So good to be with everyone, huh?" smiled Momo. Pipi nodded.
They rejoined the others and together they went shopping. When they were going home, they were greeted by a wicked laugh behind them. "Aha! So you thought you'd escape from me? And now I have another guinea pig for testing! Two in one!" It was the scientist! But fortunately, he was unaware of the other guinea pigs in this street. And the loyalty and friendship between them. He placed a cage top on them and slid the bottom in. He took them to a small place in the street. But all the guinea pigs had seen what had happened. Momo had helped them before.
As the mad scientist mixed some strange looking potions randomly, he laughed crazily. Pipi was shivering with fright. Suddenly, the door flew open. With the effort of many guinea pigs, and luckily two large guinea passed by. They were bigger than the rest by size and help the others. The guinea pigs flew in and started biting the scientist as it was the only way they knew. The shopkeeper came from somewhere and started defending. But at last the guinea pigs won. There were many other animals in cages and they let them all free.
The guinea pigs went out but the scientist immediately closed and locked the door. As they were escaping the cages, Momo and Pipi saw that the door was locked and there was no space underneath. So as they looked for some place to escape, they saw a small drainage hole. As they squeezed in, the hole became bigger. Momo and Pipi heaved a sigh of relief and carried on. But as they reached a certain place, they saw something rushing in throuh the other side towards them. "Water!" gasped Pipi. "We'll drown!" The water was dirty and Momo and Pipi did their best to stay on the top. But unfortunately Momo almost sank. Pipi got hold of his hands and dragged him and herself to a plastic drinks bottle that was floating in the surface. They climbed on it and reach the drainage place saftely. There was a square hole above their heads. "Who are you?" snarled a voice. "Don't dare to come here!" It was big drainage rats, even bigger than Momo and Pipi themselves. The rats closed towards them and Pipi
