Thomas the cat said pointing at the children,

the cows and the hay all around them.

Look out! The Farmer is coming! Help! Find some cover!

Bernhard said coming out quickly from his hole and running wildly.

We should moo all together!

When the farmer arrives... and the sheep bleating, the rooster crowing, not to let him hear

the child's weeping! Ismael the bull said.

All for one! ... It continued.

one for all! ... All the animals replied.

And it was a choir! The barn was immense in the daylight and the animals were many, so many.

Mary Jane was well hidden from the view of the farmer and she looked from beneath the udders and listened astonished, as if she was still dreaming ... A cool dreaming!

Upon his arrival, the farmer found the animals very, very agitated.

Cows and calves were mooing, horses were neighing, the rooster was crowing incessantly,

the cat was meowing, the donkey was braying and the sheep were bleating.

In seeing that confusion, the farmer feared that an Earthquake, or a Storm, perhaps a Hurricane was coming.

Since animals feel disasters and earthquakes first.

The farmer hurried to take them out to the pasture, and got his family

out of the house.

He looked at the sky, but everything looked serene. It was the cold sky of a rigid December, but clear and light blue, a nice cool winter sky.

While the farmer was heading grazing absorbed in a thousand questions,

animals suddenly stopped pawing, making verses and various bellows.

As if everything had passed and

the coming storm had become

flat calm of that sky so blue.

Mary Jane and Jean Baptiste remained hidden in a floor packed with straw,

together with Bernhard the mouse and Thomas the cat.

You're Thomas the cat, right?

Mary Jane said

At your service, Mademoiselle!

Why, can you talk?

I've always been a big talker!

Do not be silly! It drives me mad being here!

It's a fortune, don’t you think?

Thomas answer me, please,

Why can you talk?

If anything... why can you hear me?

Right? ... Why can I hear you?

“It's a meaningless conversation”

Mary Jane thought;

she thought she was going crazy or

to be still dreaming cool.

You can hear us thank to your father,

the brilliant Count Ladurée.

Bernhard was a lab rat,

you know? ... And he told me about things.

That rat's got the scoop on!

Now... the mouse can talk, too?

No! Mademoiselle is you, who can listen to us!

Bernhard the mouse said, almost annoyed.
