"You're kidding..." Steven spoke in awe, with his eyes wide open.
"I could be wrong," I said. "But, how on earth did he know?"
"Know what?" Steven asked, with his eyes still wide.
"He said, and I quote. 'I'm glad to see you're out of that cave'," I explained. Repeating it with my own voice still sent shivers running down my spine.
"Anything else?" Steven asked, his head tilted.
"Only that he'd see me soon," I sighed.
"Alright, but why were you confused?" Steven asked. It took me a second to remember what he was talking about.
"He helped me. I just didn't understand, I thought he'd just make it worse. Now it's even more irritating, now I don't know if his intentions are good or bad," I panicked.
"The only thing you don't want to do is panic," Steven spoke calmly. "We'll find out what's going on." I understood Steven wanted to help but, I was afraid this man would be far beyond more powerful then Steven.
"Um, where's Lion?" I asked, after all I had no clue where he went last night.
"He wanted to go outside. I saw him walking around last night at about 3:00am," Steven said. I gave him a sharp nod and climbed out of bed. Steven ran over and helped me fully stand up, but it miserably failed when Lion came running in. Lion tackled me to the floor and started nudging my face.
"Oh there you are," I growled. "I could've used your help last night..." Lion flattened his ears,
"But, I'm unharmed, so it's alright," I sighed. Lion brought his ears back up again, then I grabbed onto his neck and he helped me up. Lion bent down and I slowly climbed onto him. Well, at least I didn't have to walk today.
Lion walked me outside onto the porch with Steven. I slowly climbed off, and that's when Lion caught sight of my bandage. He growled and ripped it off swiftly with his teeth.
"Hey!" I snapped, then Lion threw it at a passing bird, who fell out of the sky and soon as it hit it's beak. I watched it fall onto the sand, motionless. "Is it...dead?"
Lion shook his head and closed his eyes, letting out deep breaths. Then he opened his eyes back up.
"Sleeping?" I asked, Lion gave a sharp nod. "So there was like a powder, that would've made me pass out?"
Lion nodded again,
"Do you think he wanted you to pass out? Like so he could kidnap you or something?" Steven asked.
"Probably," I responded, "But, why would he try to do that?"
That pink thing was a pain, it was ruining everything! Those bandages would've worked, and she would've fallen asleep! It was perfect, but now it was ruined. What was I supposed to do know?
I'd have to find another way. A way that would take care of that Lion too.
I had to think, how could I lead both the Lion and the girl to the same place, together? I couldn't help but look at the boy,
Perfect.
