As the door slowly closed behind a mysterious figure, a diminutive shadow appeared from the darkness.Looking around the eerie room, a  figure slowly appeared from the ceiling. Looking like it just came out from a comic book, it slowly went down revealing that the mysterious figure was a mouse. It was on a heist to get the big chunk of cheese.
