"We're afraid someone will recognise her." The gray and white tom said, eyes on the open door to Lump's shop. Lump might have said he was nervous, were it not for the cocky grin at the edge of his muzzle.
"Because her claws are too sharp?" Lump asked, trying to keep the impatience out of her meow.
"Yes, maam'."
The cream she-cat muttered a curse under her breath and rubbed her paws over her eyes. She was so not in the mood for this,
"Let me see her claws." About two seconds later, her eyes went wide,
"Holy shi-"
"What?" The she-cat meowed, pulling her paw back with an embarassed expression.
Nothing, other than your claws are sharper than the spawn of the devil!
"Nothing." Lump went over to a nail-cutter on the wall. It was supposed to be for twolegs, but it worked just as well on cats.
"I'll cut them if you like."
"I dont want you to cut them. Could you just... dip them in that metal stuff you have for claws?" The albino she-cat with razor claws meowed.
"That would work too." She agreed. The metal claw liquid would discuise the sharpness of the she-cat's claws without the inconvenience of being helpless in battle.
You two cant be anyone else.
"Put your paws in here, please." Ten minutes later, the two were leaving out the back way and Lump was one set of double claws richer.
She glanced up as another cat entered...
