Story two
Part 5
Later that day back at the hotel, Kemi, Mata, and me were simply reflecting on today's events. I sat on the bed and looked down at my furry guardians as they seem to slip into a daydream, and I knew that they was probably thinking about the decision I had made earlier that day.
"Oh, Man," I yawned as laid down on the bed," when they snap out of this it… there were going to be big trouble." I had been with my guardians their entire life and I could already guess what was going on in their minds.
Mata without a doubt was probably thinking about how we are going to pull this off, while Kemi…well, she is probably think of a way to prevent this from happening. From her point of view I have a blood debt to pay to our boss for all the years he had protected me from my enemies, and it is unfitting that I should leave him before it is paid. But I have always wonder what would it take for me to pay off such a debt, and when I had asked her the only answer I got is when he says so. Which meant that I could be paying back that debt from now to forever, and like Mata I believe that I would never be freed.
"Oh well," I moaned as I decide to think about happier times like earlier that day at the park. I had luck out and really didn't have to explain anything to Kemi, because Jim was there waiting. He had a banquet of rose in his hands which he gave me, and it was then that I felt ashamed of the gift I had plan to give him, so instead I had just kiss him on the top of his head. He started to blush as I turn my back to him and lick my lips. His skin had a sort of sweet taste to it, and I kind of wonder if his lips would taste just as good. But I had to keep control of myself, Jim thought he was human and if I move or act too quickly or roughly I might scare him. So I chose to concentrate on the roses. "He had definitely gone through a lot of trouble to get me these flowers," I thought as looked at the variety of colors and types of roses. And it was out of all those beautiful flowers that I notice a single pink rose. It was different from all the other pink roses that surrounded it. It was pink with crimson colored splats all over the bottom of it, which made it look like it had at one time been dip in blood.
It was at this time that I remember a story my mom once told me about such a rose that could grant wishes. Information that I shared with Jim, so that he would want to make a wish on it with me. So of course I wished for us to be together forever, which made Jim blushed, while he wished to know about his past. This had made me laugh, because of the fact that both of our dreams were just within reach. He had looked at me with an curious expression on his face and asked me what was funny, so I…
"I now know what to do!" Kemi yells as she jumps up from her place on the floor waking me from my fantasy. "Mata I challenge you to the guardian's oath."
"I accept!" Mata yawn as he stretch himself out on the floor," but remember that according to the rules the winner chooses what our next coarse of action is and the loser can never mention or criticize that choice again."
"I know!" Kemi purred as she began to grow. Her black fur shines as she grew three times her original size. Her muscles ripple with each change in her size and form as her muzzle began to stretch until it reached a point that it looked more like a wolf's snout. Then Mata began to follow her example as he too began to grow, but unlike Kemi he chose to grow just twice his original size.
"This isn't fair," I interrupted them before their fight could began. "I'm old enough now that this shouldn't be necessary."
"Not until you're eighteen," Kemi growled," then your word will become law."
"Damn it!" "I don't have to stay here and watch this." I snapped back. I hate it when my guardians chose to take charge of my life. "Good luck, Mata," I whispered as I shut the door and went outside to wait for the victor to come fetch me.
It was here as I sat a lone that I saw him: The man that had made me an orphan, The person that was the sole reason why I had joins up with the boss. The man that had nearly taken my love from me, Kane. He was with a group of people at the moment but that didn't stop me. I quickly hop from my place at the bottom step of the hotel and rush toward him. I swept my hands quickly behind my back and into the void where I quickly put on my glove claws. He saw me rushing toward him and of course fled me, and I probably would have ended his life then and there if those people haven't got in my way. I thought about killing one of them so that the others would back off, but I knew that these people could just be innocent passerbys who just so happens to be in my way. So I chose to just push through them. I saw him run down that street and into an alley, but by the time I had arrived there I found myself alone again. He had escaped me.
So, I walk home slowly. If he was here then that would mean that Jim as well as myself was in trouble, so tomorrow when I met with Jim I will have to put everything out on the table. There would be no more games of cat and mice.
"Just the straight out truth," I spoke outloud as I banish the glove claws back into the void where I kept them.
"Hanmyo," A small voice squeak upon mine arrive back at the hotel. "I've won!" Mata appear from behind a trash can all beat and blood, and then he collapsed at my feet. I then quickly swept him in my arms and after making sure that no one was watching us I jump from my place on the ground to the top of the house beside us and then through the open window of our room. It would be a quiet night in that room as the two cats tried to heal from the wounds they had inflicted upon each other. Yes, a quiet night just to reflect and dream.
