I drew in a breath,there standing before us was a black cat, and it stared
right at me as if it could see right threw me. I took a step back and stole
a glance at Jonathan. He was smiling, and he laughed heartly bending down
to the ground motioning for that cat to come forward. It did come and it
took a seat on his shoulders. But it never took it's gaze off me, i notice
it had a very protective look .
"This is Danda."he answered to my puzzled look, giving the cat a scratch behind the ear.
As if in greeting, Danda jumped down from his shoulder and ran over and settled herself near me, she gave me a look that I swear she would be human.
"Look Hattie!She likes you!"he said, sounding a bit amazed. It took me a moment to realize he was talking to me, I really thought Hattie had shown up, I shook myself of the thought and nodded adsent mindly.
I bent down and gave the cat a quick scratch behind the ear as Jonathan had done. I purr answered this and I smiled with delight, for those few brief seconds I felt the relief of all my worries, it was as if the cat was comforting me, but not by words.
The cat left me and my worries flooded back in, were am i to go? I hadn't realized I said this out loud, but I did.
Rather he knew this was a question for him or not he answered, "You can come with us."
"I..can?"I wasn't sure adout this,should I?
"Well, of course."He made it sound so ovious, and so easy.
"We're heading for Bast...."he contiuned, a bit happer, he didn't have that boring expression on his face anymore.
Bast. That sounded good.
"We'd have to go on foot."He contiuned wearily,"i'm hoping we might find some work there."
I nodded, just noticing the woods that surrounded me, it seemed the same from all directions, I din't pay this no mind, i had traveled in a forest before, I shouldn't worry, But for some reasion i did.
Johanathan seemed to notice my uneasiness and said soothenly as he began packing what little items he had."Don't worry,i've been in this forest longer than I remember."
Maybe so, I told myself wearily, but that wouldn't stop the orges, they knew my weakness.
_~_~_~_~_~_~_~_~_~_~_~_~_~
We walked for what it seemed like for days, we stopped a few times to rest, but Johanathan was eager to move on. Me and Danda we're on the same side when it came for rest, we had became good friends. A few times I had thought she would come out and talk sence she seemed almost human. I also seen the boyishness in 'John',i had started calling him by a nick name in my mind sence it seemed so easier. To my amazment he liked to climb trees when he was in the mood, and he had too when he wanted a sertain kind of fruit or eggs from a tree. I guess he always acted solem when he first meets someone.
I had nothing else to wear but my dress, it was worn down with dirt and slime and thorns from rose and berry bushes that you wouldn't notice it had once been worn to a ball, not only that I had torn it a bit to make it shorter.
We contiuned on a on, I envied the cat because when she got tired enough she could find a nice shoulder to rest on, But when I thought would be forever ended as we stepped to the gates of bast.
Finially!
We had passed the elves forest I relized as i looked around. And i hadn't seen one elf, this wasn't surprizing sence they were shy creatures, I turned my back to the forest, happy to leave it, and i had noticed I was also leaving my memories of loved one's by doing so.
