SURELY the Headmaster would have known about the cute invasion. Dolly herself didn't think anything of it. But there were so many of them! Of course he knew! She thought this Kaden man was being a liiiiiiittle ridiculous, but she would let him send his message. Her little fur friends were fed now and that was all that mattered.

"Unusual?" she repeated in a questioning tone. "Well, they are, as themselves, a little unusual, aren't they?" Dolly scooped one of the little aliens into her hands and gave it a nuzzle. "But they're quite friendly. Do you want to hold one?" she asked, lifting the little guy up so he could reach him.

Oh, and look! The Headmaster himself! He was quite fast, wasn't he?! Fit and handsome! What a duo!

"Oh, Mickey, you're just in time! They've just finished eating! This is when they start to get reeeeaal cuddly. Come! Come hold one!" They were so soft and irresistible. How could he say no?!
