Hey this first paragraph is taken directly from the Sabriel book by Garth Nix so don't sue me. I'm giving Nix and what ever inspiration that help write this book the respect and stuff they need. The paragraphs following be my own creation. DISCLAIMER! I don't own Garth Nix or Sabriel. But the ideas for this fanfic be mine and mine only. (though if it weren't for Nix I wouldn't have this fan fic so thankx Nixxy ^.~ ) ~*~ ~*~ ~*~ ~*~ ~*~ ~*~ ~*~ ~*~ ~*~ ~*~ ~*~ ~*~ ~*~ ~*~ ~*~ ~*~ ~*~ ~*~ ~*~ Touchstone had finally noticed. Sabriel turned her gaze back to him, and lifted her head cautiously. He had removed her sword, she saw, and several of her school friends had cast a healing spell, good enough for the moment. Typically, Touchstone had done nothing for his own leg. "Sabriel," he said again. "You're alive?" "Yes," said Sabriel, with some surprise. "I am!" Touchstone's hand caressed Sabriel's pale, blood crusted face. Pain clouded her mind, making her vission hazy. Darkness started to encircle her vission. Sleep finally took over Sabriel's fatigued body ~*~ ~*~ ~*~ ~*~ ~*~ ~*~ ~*~ ~*~ ~*~ ~*~ ~*~ ~*~ ~*~ ~*~ ~*~ ~*~ ~*~ ~*~ ~*~ Bright lights and a blurry face swam in to view. Sabriel blinked a few times, her vision cleared. Touchstone's concerned face came in to focus. He smiled at her when he saw that she was awake. "Good morning, love." He looked at her with admiration and love. "How do you feel?" Sabriel smiled, "Stiff, how is your leg?" "They had put this rock-like boot on it. But it is not of any rock I know of and it is free and charter magic free." Touchstone frowned. Sabriel looked down at his leg and her smile widened. 'A cast' Sabriel considered a quick healing spell, but the marks were fuzzy and her body wasn't capable of magic at that point. "How far are we from the wall?" "We are in Wyverly Hospital. "Oh, alright." Sabriel snuggled in to her pillows and started to doze again but Touchstone's curiosity got the better of him. "Sabriel?" "Hmmm?" "Why is that box making that noise?" Sabriel looked over to where he was pointing and smiled to her self. "It's called a heart monitor. It makes that noise every time my heart beats. So, if I die the monitor makes a long beep. That is how the doctor knows if I'm dead or not." Touchstone nodded but continued to look confused. Sabriel started to nod off again but some one knocked at the door. Silently she groaned to her self. "Yes?" She asked annoyed that she kept getting interrupted when she tried to sleep. Slowly the door opened, and standing there was one of Sabriel's school friends. "Maggie!" "Hey Sabriel. How do you feel?" "Sore and stiff, other than that I'm fine." Both girls smiled. "Well, I suppose it could be worse." They both nodded and again smiled; slowly they began to giggle. Touchstone sat where he was completely lost. "I brought you some thing. I think they're yours." "They? There is more than one. Oh, Maggie they don't allow swords on hospital premises and I don't think they'd like it if you brought me my bel- " Sabriel looked over to where Touchstone sat and he was holding her bells. "Oh, never mind" "Your sword is at the school...or what's left of it." A sad shadow crossed her face. Sabriel understood they had both lost life-long friends the other night. But just as quickly as the shadow came, it left. "I brought your cats." "Cats? I only have one." Maggie shook her head "No, we found two. A white one and a black one, they both have red collars on with charter marks flowing through them. Oh and each had a cute little bell, but it makes ya sleepy if it rings. The cats seem to only sleep, it's like they don't wake up for any thing." "Well, the white one is Moggot. He's mine, but the black one I don't know who it is." Maggie walked over to the bed and set the kitty-carriers down on to the bed. One of the kitty-carriers had a white kitty and the other had a black cat. "Moggot...Moggot wake up you lazy bag of lard." The white cat opened his eyes sleepily and yawned. "Yes, Abhorson?" Maggie's jaw had dropped and almost hit the floor. "Sabriel. Moggot call me Sabriel. I don't feel up to being any one I'm not." "Still in denial, Abhorson?" "Moggot I'm warning you. SHUT UP!" "Moggot, I think it might be wise to listen to her." Touchstone put in hesitantly. "Thank you Touchstone." Sabriel sighed. Moggot stuck out his pick tongue and shut up. "Th-th-that cat spoke?!" "Yeah, it's getting the damn thing to shut up is the trick." Maggie just stared. "Take what you would call a picture I hear they last longer." "Moggot!" Sabriel yelled at the cat, "be nice. I'll leave you here under the care of the ally cats." Maggie had quickly looked away. "Don't mind him Maggie he's just cranky" "I can see that." Moggot got up and curled around Sabriel's shoulders, sneezed, and fell asleep. "I'm glad that I had put them under Rana instead of one of the other bells. At least now he'll sleep and we won't have to deal with Ro- the black one." Sabriel had stopped her self when she saw the look Touchstone gave her. It wasn't a menacing look but a silent plea. But after that was said the black cat woke up and hissed when he saw Sabriel. "Well, good morning to you too." "When I get this collar off I'm going to get you back mistress and sir." The cat's fur was standing on end. In a flash Moggot was up and in between Sabriel and the kitty-carrier "Silence you ungrateful fool! This is your new master, be respectful or I'll have to show you have to be respectful!" Moggot hissed his fur was also up on end. "I will, so help me the charter it self, rip you shred to shred for the disrespect you just showed to the Abhorson and her swordsman!" Moggot's back was arched as he hissed. Sabriel cautiously put her hand on the angry white cat's back. As soon as she touched his back he un-arched his back, curled up at her side and began to purr. "Oh, this makes me sick! A slave and his master...cuddling. Excuse me as I hack up a hair ball." Again in a flash Moggot was up, but this time he tried to scratch at the black cat. Maggie quickly grabbed the kitty-carrier and took it out side of the room. At the same time Sabriel grabbed Moggot by the scruff of his neck. He hissed in annoyance but quickly obeyed his master. "Well! I know where he's staying when we get home!" Touchstone nodded. Maggie came back in and told them that she was going back to the school and bringing the black cat with her. Touchstone and Sabriel nodded and after she turned to go out the door Sabriel curled up, careful not to move the IV tube that was in her arm, and fell asleep. ~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~ Well what do you think?
