SECRET N° 332 The Shell Wars 16

Chapitre 16 : Trahisons, Brouillard et Révélations Qui Grattent

(où tout le monde a quelque chose à cacher, sauf Jean-Rasoir, qui oublie juste de fermer sa bouche)

LE BROUILLARD S’ÉPAISSIT (ET LES SOUPÇONS AUSSI)
Dès l’aube, un brouillard épais recouvrit toute la forêt.
Un brouillard si dense qu’on ne voyait plus ses propres pattes.
Un brouillard qui sentait un mélange de mousse humide, de secrets et de fromage oublié.

— “C’est une couverture !” cria Pluminette.
— “C’est un fromage géant qui a fondu sur la forêt !” hurla Jean-Rasoir.
— “Non,” grogna Castagnor. “C’est le moment qu’il attendait.”

Mais qui “il” ?
Personne ne le savait.
Et ça, c’était terrifiant.

UNE TRAHISON BIEN MOITE
Au milieu du conseil de guerre, alors que Speedo distribuait des cartes topographiques faites de feuilles séchées, un cri retentit :
— “ON A VOLÉ MON CASQUE EN ÉCORCE !”

Belladonna pointa aussitôt un doigt accusateur vers… Chiffon, le taupe-agent.

— “Tu es trop bien coiffé pour être honnête ! Et ton nœud papillon vient de changer de motif : il affiche ‘héhé’ !”

— “Calomnie !” protesta Chiffon. “Je suis loyal ! Mon nœud papillon a des réactions imprévisibles, c’est un modèle expérimental !”

Mais trop tard.

Un écureuil avait découvert un message codé glissé sous une racine, signé :

“À ce soir. Dans le brouillard. — Le Stratège Invisible”

Et devinez qui avait été vu en train de parler… à une souche vide ?
Chiffon.

DUEL DANS LE BROUILLARD
Le soir venu, malgré les disputes, Castagnor se rendit seul au lieu de rendez-vous : la Clairière du Cône Fendu.

Une silhouette l’attendait.

— “Enfin face à face,” dit la voix grave. “Même si on ne se voit pas.”

Castagnor serra les dents.
— “Qui es-tu ?!”

— “Un vieil ami. Ou peut-être juste l’écho de ta paranoïa.”

— “Assez parlé. On règle ça à l’ancienne.”

Et dans le brouillard, un duel épique s’engagea.

Des bruits de branches, de grattements, de petits cris de douleur (et de jurons d’écureuil).

Puis… silence.

Et une silhouette chancelante sortit.

C’était Castagnor, le poil hirsute, les yeux en feu.

— “Je… je l’ai vu. Juste un instant. Il avait… des lunettes. Et une cape. Et… une pince.”

LA VÉRITÉ QUI GRATTE
En revenant, Castagnor rassembla ses troupes.

— “Le Stratège Invisible existe. Et il prépare quelque chose d’énorme. Quelque chose qui va bouleverser l’équilibre de la forêt.”

— “Un dessert trop sucré ?” osa Speedo.

— “Pire,” répondit Castagnor. “Une alliance avec… le clan des Chats de Grenier.”

Tous frissonnèrent.
Même Jean-Rasoir arrêta de gratter sa torche.

Belladonna murmura :
— “Mais… ces chats ont été exilés depuis la Grande Litière…”

— “Ils sont revenus,” dit Castagnor. “Et ils ont faim. De pouvoir. Et de lasagnes.”

Chapter 16: Betrayals, Fog, and Itchy Truths

(in which everyone has something to hide—except Jean-Rasoir, who just forgets to close his mouth)

THE FOG THICKENS (AND SO DO THE SUSPECTS)
At dawn, a thick fog settled over the forest.
A fog so dense you couldn’t see your own paws.
A fog that smelled like damp moss, secrets, and forgotten cheese.

— “It’s a cover-up!” squawked Pluminette.
— “It’s a giant cheese that melted over the forest!” screamed Jean-Rasoir.
— “No,” growled Castagnor. “This is what he’s been waiting for.”

But who was “he”?
No one knew.
And that was the terrifying part.

A SWEATY BETRAYAL
In the middle of the war council, while Speedo was handing out topographic maps made of dried leaves, a scream rang out:
— “MY BARK HELMET’S BEEN STOLEN!”

Belladonna immediately pointed a suspicious paw at… Chiffon, the mole-agent.

— “You’re too well-groomed to be innocent! And your bowtie just changed patterns to say ‘hehe’!”

— “Slander!” objected Chiffon. “I am loyal! My bowtie is experimental and moody!”

But it was too late.

A squirrel had just found a coded message slipped beneath a root, signed:

“Tonight. In the fog. — The Invisible Strategist”

And guess who had been seen talking… to an empty stump?
Chiffon.

DUEL IN THE MIST
That evening, despite the arguments, Castagnor went alone to the meeting point: Split-Cone Clearing.

A silhouette awaited him.

— “At last, face to face,” said a deep voice. “Even if we can’t see each other.”

Castagnor gritted his teeth.
— “Who are you?!”

— “An old friend. Or maybe just the echo of your paranoia.”

— “Enough talk. Let’s settle this the old-fashioned way.”

And in the fog, an epic duel began.

Sounds of branches snapping, claws clashing, little yelps of pain (and squirrel-sized cursing).

Then… silence.

And a staggering figure emerged.

It was Castagnor—fur wild, eyes blazing.

— “I… I saw him. Just for a moment. He had… glasses. And a cape. And… a claw.”

THE ITCHY TRUTH
Back at camp, Castagnor gathered the troops.

— “The Invisible Strategist is real. And he’s planning something big. Something that will shift the entire balance of the forest.”

— “An overly sweet dessert?” suggested Speedo.

— “Worse,” Castagnor replied. “An alliance with… the Attic Cats Clan.”

Everyone shivered.
Even Jean-Rasoir stopped scratching his torch.

Belladonna whispered:
— “But… those cats were exiled since the Great Litter War…”

— “They’re back,” Castagnor said. “And they’re hungry. For power. And for lasagna.”
