In a big mansion lived a cruel and
wicked land lord who found killing animals fun; he loved to go hunting for
birds and animals. He even killed stray animals like rats, cats, dogs and mice
for the humour of it. This land lord was a real animal killer. Now many people
have heard about crazy hunters who breed hundreds of rabbits or pheasants just
to kill them later on for the sport of it. But not the land lord; he bred lots
of cats and then would kill the kittens along with the mother cats. The reason
why he loved to kill cats was really because he hated cats. Filthy and
disgusting creatures are what he called them.
That was not the only cruel thing
about the land lord; the other wicked thing about him was he liked having
concubines. Despite the fact he already had a wife, he liked keeping concubines
for sexual pleasure. Usually a concubine would be pampered like a princess with
lovely clothes and food, but not the land lord’s concubines. His concubines
were dressed in rags, were given little food, and worse of all he kept them
locked up in his dirty cellar.
What the land lord did to his
concubines was awful; he raped and abused them until they died. After they died
he would have them thrown into a pit and burn them. The servants and his wife
knew about this, but they did nothing to stop him or help the concubines. The
concubines were just left to suffer and die.
One time the land lord was down to
one concubine left; he had killed the others. This concubine had a cat and
kittens for company. The land lord hadn’t killed these cats yet and they were
the only happiness she had left. But one day the land lord saw the cats in the
cellar. “Disgusting creatures making a mess in here” he said, and he grabbed a
sword that hung in the cellar. The concubine begged the land lord to spare the
cats lives, but he ignored her pleas and killed the cats while laughing in
pleasure.
The concubine was in despair; it was
terrible enough for her to be treated cruelly by the land lord, but having her
cat friends killed by the land lord was the worse. “The only disgusting
creature is that land lord!” she shouted, angrily. She started to pray; she
prayed for the wicked land lord to be cursed. Just then some little wisp of
spirits surrounded the concubine. The spirits were the souls of the dead cats.
They had heard her anger and sorrow and they wished to get revenge on the land
lord too. The concubine opened up her arms to the spirits and then the spirits
went into her body.
The concubine was turned into a monstrous
cat creature and she broke herself out of the cellar. Once the cat creature was
loose she started to kill the servants of the mansion. The concubine couldn’t
forgive the servants either for letting their master abuse and kill other
concubines; she also couldn’t forgive them for not even helping them. Once all
the servants were killed the cat creature made her way to the land lord and his
wife. “You will now pay for killing other women and for your cruelty against
cats!” she shouted at them. The land lord and his wife were helpless now, and
with a lot of scratching from her sharp claws the land lord and his wife were
soon dead.
After getting her revenge against the
evil land lord the cat creature left the mansion. Unfortunately the concubine
was to remain a cat creature for the rest of her life. But what mattered to her
was she was now free, and cats and other animals were free from the land lords
killing spree.
