Chapter 7

He shut the door and sat in the back with me. "So start explaining." I sighed and then began.

"First let me establish that anything I say, you won't freak out, because I know you will when I start explaining about the apostles of the Star, and their horrid leader..."

"Okay just explain everything else." He sat patiently waiting.

"Um... well before I attacked Igor I drank a potion that I wasn't suppose to drink. I've seen it take to lives, and I was afraid that I might die too, but my body took in the power. I can do this now." I breathed in my hand and held a handful of snow. He stared confused. "It's the opposite of... you know you'll find out soon enough.

"it's Tao power. Provided by the Apostles of the Star. They give these to X criminals whom they believe will take in the Tao power, in hopes to create an unnatural super army. Please Train I ask of you not to freak out when I tell you the leader's name... please just don't leave... um..." I couldn't find an easy way to tell him, other then beg him not to leave, and in hopes that he'll actually listen to me.

"I said I would listen until the end so continue." He said calmly and a bit confused.

"Look, you gonna be going after a guy named Gianza Rujikee... Rinslette is going to let us keep the bounty we just need to get to him before he drinks anymore." He just kept staring at me. " Okay, the thing you've been waiting for... well... Creed is the leader of the Apostles of the Star, he's still alive." his eyes grew and he began moving towards the door. "No! I thought you said you weren't going to leave until you heard me out."

"Get off me, I need to go stop Creed." He yelled. I pulled him back and pinned him down.

"You don't know where he is, and you don't even know how to defend yourself against him. Do you really think by doing all this it will bring Saya back? Would she want you to do all that just to get yourself killed? Think about it Train, it does you know good getting revenge dead!" He stopped and stared. "Look Train, at least hold back for a later day. You need to... to … please just..." I couldn't find the words. He smiled up at me.

"Your right. I'm acting selfish. I'm sorry." I blushed and looked down at Train, and he smiled again.

"You're acting really out of character. This isn't like you at all."

"Maybe it's your fault." He smirked, and shifted out from underneath me.

"Maybe you've changed me too." I look out the window and see a full moon. " I guess it's like one of those nights again." He leaned over to see the moon. " I know most of your memories are of Saya and how you two would meet underneath a full moon." I say

"Yeah..." He said, his face dropping and he looked away.

"I'm sorry, anything about her is a sensitive subject."

"It's not your fault." He says quickly. "It's mine..." I turned to look at him.

"In what shape, or form is this your fault? You weren't there sure, but that wasn't your fault. And please don't say 'if she never met me.' that is not a mistake... Train... you can't blame yourself for what has happened. You weren't the cause of her death."

"I know that... I know whose fault it was." He says sharply then quickly turns to hide his face again.

"Train? I was only trying to..."

"I know what you were trying to do too, thanks but I don't need the pep talk. I know what I'm doing." I sigh and stare out the window again.

"You know... the full moon was of the happiest memories I had." I smiled. "Night's like those use to remind me... that I can be me, and I can make my own happiness." I yawned. "Hey Train?"

"Yeah what is it Cat?"

"Can I fall asleep against your arm?" He smiled and nodded. I fell over and instantly, I was out. I felt Train shift underneath me. Just before I fell asleep I swore I heard him say something...

"You sure are a strange cat. I'm glad." and he was peacefully asleep.
