Behind the seats? Fup pokes her nose into the gap between cushions. That's where it is: behind the seats. She lowers her head, wedges a paw past her ear — and tumbles through the tunnel thus created onto the cold metal floor of the trunk. The tunnel promptly closes behind her.
Blame it on the pitch-black trunk or call it olfactory illusion — whatever Fup eats back there, it most definitely isn't cheese.
The floor rattles up and down. Something sprays at the metal beneath her. Are they driving over gravel? So close to the city? She curls up into the belly of a spare tire, hoping her stomach will settle.
The car stops. A door creaks open. Zooey barks. The door slams shut, and the car starts forward again.
Her head spins. Did Bear and Zooey get out? Spinning-spinning-spinning, dark and dizzy. Disoriented, deflated, soon enough she's desperately clawing at the seat backs. Maybe she's making too much of this, but she's stuck in the trunk of a moving car.
