Amy was holding one corner of the black-robed servant's robes, while the rest of it was draped onto the floor. As a result, the servant was revealed to be a thin and wiry cat hovering in the air with its green eyes wide open as if it had been frozen in shock.

Ugly Duckling tumbled through the air before rolling onto the ground, finally ending up on its backside, looking as if it had been hurt more by the fall than the black cat had been hurt by its paw strike.

"Argh!"
