A/N: Short chapter. Reviews appreciated :D
Kitty
Chapter 4: Perfecting the Pentacles
Kitty retrieved the chalk she had found in her jacket—it was probably from one of her previous summonings.
First, she wiped clean the pentacle she had stood in. Kitty trusted Bartimaeus and was sure he wasn't going to just come out and eat her up like the other demons were sure to do.
After that was done, she drew a large pentacle, with Nathaniel's bed standing inside it. The words needed were going to have to change, but she would deal with those later. Kitty scratched in the break, and walked over to Bartimaeus's pentacle, adding a break in his too.
"Really trusting, aren't you?" the djinni asked. "Are you sure I'm not just going to come out and gobble you up?"
"Bartimaeus, really," Kitty replied, with a stern tone. "And can you change your form? You're giving me a head ache, looking at two Nathaniels. And it's…nevermind."
Bartimaeus—or rather, Nathaniel—curled his upper lip, and then rolled his eyes, changing into a translucent cloud of pale, white, smoke, with a pair of yellow, luminous eyes, settling in the center.
"Happy now?" it asked, out of nowhere.
Kitty huffed, then turned back to her task of perfecting her pentacles. She drew them with great precision, making sure that everything was going according to plan. But she did do it quite swiftly, as if she had been drawing pentacles since she was an apprentice from youth like others. Finally, when the pentacles were perfected, Kitty spoke to Bartimaeus once more.
"Bartimaeus, I'm going to have to improvise the incantation, so just get ready." She stepped into the big pentacle around Nathaniel's bed.
Bartimaeus merely nodded, or rather, the smoky blob merely floated up and down.
And with that, Kitty started the incantation.
A/N: Really short I know, but I'm gonna write as if each chapter can only have one person's point of view. That'll be easier to separate and define. Read on for Bartimaeus!
But please review first!
