Jack Horner’s wish had cataclysmic consequences.
All magical creatures were stripped of their powers or disappeared outright. Those who remained were entirely at the mercy of an all-powerful tyrant.
Puss could no longer talk, wield a sword, or stand on his hind legs. But he remembered who he was.
The wolf remembered him too. Puss had known as soon as they had met again, red eyes locked on green.
He looked from the cat to the former pie factory turned magical fortress. They were headed the same way.
Words were unnecessary. Their intent was clear:
‘We’ll take him down together.’
"Hey, Lobo! I got your parts!"
Death raised his head from the open bowels of his vessel. Puss in Boots glided in and landed beside the wolf with a flap of the leather wings Death had crafted for him. There was some beautiful irony in watching his creation come to life.
"Not as fashionable as my cape, but they’re very cool," the cat flaunted his wings. "So yes, I will help you upgrade your boat."
"Good," Death smirked. "You will be more comfortable when you ride it."
"Sure, eventually."
"How much for these parts?"
"One kiss," Puss winked. "Or thereabouts."
"No… You can’t be here, this is supposed to…!"
"Make you immortal?"
Death sneered at the cat cowering inside the sealed pod:
"All this machine can do is gather data from your memories, create an approximate replica of your legend, and upload it into a robot.
"I don’t chase lifeless shams, Puss in Boots. I am here for you," Death’s sickle knocked on the glass. "You’re gonna use your last moments to ‘save’ your precious legend? Or are you gonna fight?"
Death could crush him inside the pod; instead, he waited.
Puss clenched his sword, and slammed the cancel button.
Every mortal had a soulmate. Death didn’t.
"So?" Puss’ red rose twirled between his claws.
"So, you should stop pursuing me, and go back to your soulmate," Death growled.
"Kitty and I have an open relationship. Sweet of you to worry, though," Puss purred.
"I’m not supposed to mingle with mortals! This is why I don’t have a mark!"
"That doesn’t sound like a ‘no,’" Puss caressed Death’s chin with the flower. "I don’t care what fate has to say. But I do care about your answer."
Despite his suave voice, the rose trembled in his paw.
Death took it.
You know what? I'll do it too.
