  okay,

  Grandfather

  !

  Well

  done,

  Grandson!

  When we got back to the

  MouseStar 1, it

  was very quiet.

  Grandfather William

  was the first to greet us. He

  hugged

  me

  tightly when he saw

  we had brought back

  Hologramix.

  Galactic gorgonzola,

  I was

  shocked

  !

  My grandfather

  isn’t very

  cuddly

  ,

  and he’s

  definitely

  not

  usually a hugger!

  He must have been

  !

  mousetastically

  happy that our mission

  had succeeded.

  As soon as Grandfather let me go, Sally

  and I got to work.

  “Sally, let’s plug in Hologramix

  right

  away

  !” I said excitedly.

  “Of course, Captain!” she said as she

  got to work

  immediately

  . In just a few

  minutes, the doors on the MouseStar 1 were

  opening and closing with no problems, the

  liftrix

  was working efficiently, and the

  lights were back on. The only thing missing

  was the yellow snout of our

  onboard

  computer

  !

  Suddenly, there was a shout behind me.

  “

  Boo!

  ” a voice squeaked.

  Martian mozzarella! Who was it?

  I turned around and . . . there was

  Hologramix

  !

  Aaaaaah!

  Boo!

  “Did you miss me, Captain?” it asked.

  Before I could reply, a message appeared

  on the main screen:

  Incoming Call!

  “Hologramix, take the call!” I insisted.

  A second later,

  Professor Twisterix

  and

  Fidox

  appeared on the screen.

  “Professor, how nice to see you again!” I

  greeted him.

  “

  Superstellar

  circuits!

  ” the

  professor

  said. “I see you’re all back

  safe

  and

  sound

  ,

  including Hologramix! Congratulations on

  accomplishing your mission.”

  “It’s all thanks to you and Fidox!” Sally

  replied.

  “I was

  happy

  to help!” Professor Twisterix

  replied. “I see that your onboard computer

  is working, thanks to the power transformer.

  I’ll send you the

  instructions

  so you

  can set up the MouseStar 1’s engines to run

  on the same system. Then you can use

  wind

  and

  starlight

  energy to power your

  spaceship, too!”

  “Do you mean we won’t have to use

  TETRASTELLIUM

  to power our engines

  anymore?”

  “That’s right!” the professor confirmed.

  “As soon as I set up the engines, we’ll be

  able to

  fly

  using just the energy from the

  wind and stars!” Sally chimed in.

  “

  Yay!

  ” Benjamin cheered. “MouseStar 1

  will be the most environmentally friendly

  spaceship in the Cheddar Galaxy!”

  “I have another idea,” Professor Greenfur

  added. “If you agree, Professor Twisterix,

  Sally and I can fine-tune your invention to

  make it available to every spaceship in the

  universe

  !”

  “What a mouserific idea!” Twisterix

  replied. “You have my permission to

  proceed

  !”

  “Let’s celebrate,” Hologramix said as

  a robot waiter approached me holding a

  beverage. “This is for you, Captain. Cheers!”

  I was about to take a sip when I realized

  Thank

  you,

  Captain!

  Hooray!

  Hi,

  Fidox!

  Professor

  Twisterix!

  Wow!

  Mission

  accomplished!

  Stellar

  circuits!

  Woof!

  it was

  motor

  oil

  . Black holey galaxies! I

  looked at Hologramix in alarm, but he just

  winked.

  “

  Gotcha!

  ” he said, laughing.

  Trap, Benjamin, Thea, Sally, Professor

  Greenfur, and I all

  joined in

  . It felt great to

  laugh after our

  encounter

  with the pirate

  spacecats. I had a feeling we hadn’t seen

  the last of those famousely

  ferocious

  felines! But that, dear rodent friends, is a

  story
