CHAPTER 20

(Alice's POV)

Alice blinked open her eyes, she wasn't in the woods anymore, she was in a house. "What?" she asked groggily, "How did I get here?"

"My twoleg brought you!" a cheery voice replied.

Alice sat up, "Who-who's there?" she asked warily.

"Only me," the voice said and Alice spun around to see a sandy colored she-cat with black tabby stripes. The cat wore a green color around her neck with a golden bell attached to it.

"W-who are you?" she stammered.

"I'm Gracie! What's your name?" she questioned.

"My name? Oh, umm my name is Alice. Why am I here?"

Gracie looked up from licking herself, "My twoleg found you in the woods, you had eaten some kind of berry that can kills cats! Luckily the berry wasn't too deep in your system and you threw it up." Seeing the worry on Alice's face she added, "Don't worry your safe here! My twoleg is very nice."

This felt wrong, she had been living in a house all her life but now she was a cat! Just then a door opened and a woman walked in, she wore a jogging outfit and her hair was in a ponytail. She bent down and held out her hand for Alice to sniff, Alice breathed in the scent of chicken, it smelled like she was making dinner. The woman ran her hand along her back and Alice had to admit it felt nice. She let out a small purr and the woman smiled. Suddenly an unknown voice spoke, "You want some food girl?" Alice looked up at the woman who was walking away, could she understand what she was saying? Maybe it was because she used to be a human.

"My twoleg is silly doesn't she know I can't understand her?" Gracie sighed.

"She's bringing food," Alice meowed and just then the woman walked back through the door with two plates of some canned chicken.

"How did you know?!" Gracie asked in awe.

"I guess I can speak hu- I mean twoleg," Alice shrugged. Gracie nodded thoughtfully then ran over to the woman.

"Hi girl!" she said putting down the chicken and stroking Gracie's fur.

Gracie purred and went to eat her food, she looked over at Alice, "Come on!" she meowed.

Alice padded over to her eyeing the chicken, "Is this what you always eat?" she asked, Gracie nodded. Alice took a bite, she guessed she was lucky to be in a house with a cat that was feed chicken and not cat food. After finishing the food Gracie gave Alice a tour of the house, she and Gracie would be sleeping in the living room. Alice started to wonder why she hadn't left yet, maybe it was because the death berries didn't make her human again, maybe it was because she felt at home here, she didn't really know. All she knew is she would be here for awhile. That night she settled in on the couch with Gracie, she had learned a lot about the house cat but had decied she didn't trust her enough to tell her about herself, at least not yet. She murmured a goodnight to the sandy she-cat and let sleep take over.
