All at once, the volcano began to tremble. And suddenly, up from the very depths of the earth came the most terrifying creature ever known to mousekind: the dreadful Dogzilla! Immediately, soldiers were sent out to stop the mighty beast. The heroic troops were led by their brave commanding officer, the Big Cheese. “All right, you old fleabag,” squeaked the Big Cheese, “get those paws in the air --- you’re coming with us!”

Without warning, the monstrous mutt breathed her horrible breath onto the mice. “Doggy breath!” screamed the soldiers. “Run for your lives!” “Hey, come back here,” shouted the Big Cheese to his troops. “What are you, men or mice?” “We’re MICE,” they squeaked. “Hmmmm,” said the Big Cheese, “you’re right! … Wait for me!”
