Chapter 6. Sorceress Mambo

   The black cat cleverly overcame obstacles. After a while, the children felt a cold breeze, it seemed, began to blow from the ground, as if they were descending into a deep basement. The light gradually dimmed, thin streams of water flowing underfoot. Frightened, Lisa grabbed the cat by the tail and with horror realized that she was not holding a cat by the tail, but a panther. A greenish neon glow emanated from the animal, which is the only source of light in the pitch darkness.
