"Hey pigeon! What the heck are you doing?!" Ozone demanded as he was dragged across the floor. "I'm a hawk and how bout ya shut yer trap?!" Tiberius retorted. When they finally stopped, Ozone leapt to his feet and whirled around to strike the old hawk. But then the hairless cat saw something he didn't see before.

There was an air vent just big enough for the both of them to crawl through in the wall.

"Do you think..." Ozone mumbled, lost for words. Using his talons to unscrew the vent off, Tiberius replied gruffly, "You better hope you can still fit through after eating all that fruit cake."

Laughing sarcastically, Ozone grumbled, "Aren't you the comedian? Newsflash old timer! I gave you a piece of that cake!"

"Only cuz you couldn't eat the rest of it by yourself," Tiberius muttered. Popping the vent off, he went on, "And I am not old."

"Sure you're not. Now move!" Ozone hissed, shoving the hawk out of the way as he crawled into the air vent. Sighing long and hard, Tiberius followed him inside.
