Chapter One: Ding Dong Dell or Cats Are Evil
She glared at the obese lump before her, stubbornly clinging to the last shreds of her patience as she did so.
"Here, Burako! Here, kitty, kitty! I love you! I have fish!!" Kaede crooned to her mom's cat in a failed attempt at distracting it.
The said kitty was busy playing with the very bauble that her insane priest of an uncle had sent her to find. One would think that she could simply grab the stupid thing and be on her way, but this would not be the case. Burako, descendant of the late Buyo, was very much a cat's cat. Simply put: a cat is a difficult creature to bargain with.
"Fat, useless bastard." She muttered under her breath. " Why do we even HAVE a cat?"
In the mean time, Burako was happily batting away at the Shikon rock…er…jewel by the edge of the Bone Eater's well. How the hell did the cat get it IN the shrine anyway?! Her great grand father had supposedly locked it off ages ago.
Come to think of it how did she get in there?
She rolled her eyes. According to her mother, Great-Grandpa's spells had rarely, if ever, worked. His lack of skills with charms obviously extended to locks as well.
Satisfied with her 'explanation', she returned to the matter at hand.
"Come here, you fat kitty, give your nice master the nice rock." She cooed through tightly clenched teeth. This stupid cat was giving her far too much trouble than the blasted rock was worth!
Burako gave her a sly look as if to say "Master? HAHAHA, MASTER THIS!!" and booted the damn thing down the well.
"ARGHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHH!!"
Kaede screamed. "You damn, stupid cat!! That is so IT! You are FIXED as of tomorrow, BUSTER!!"
She leapt at the cat, intent on doing the vets a favour, but Burako nimbly jumped aside (as nimbly as an overweight cat that eats 5 cans of tuna a day could) at the last moment (oh how predictable eh?) and Kaede (predictably) went careening over the edge of the well. (predictably).
She landed (predictably) on her backside and
(Leo P: Excuse me, MOSSKAT. I think the readers already know how PREDICTABLE the situations are! Can the flipping 'predictably' this and that and write the story PROPERLY! *Clouts Mosskat*) Ahem!
Kaede stood up and rubbed her backside, grumbling to herself.
"Why that flipping, damn cat…" she muttered darkly as she picked up the Shikon rock, which was now black with dirt, and stuffed it in her pocket.
"Dear mummy, your cat's gonna die…" she murmured to herself, as she gripped onto some clumps of dirt to pull herself out.
Her hand suddenly gripped something and it came loose from the dirt wall. Kaede stared at it for a while before realizing that it was a really big…. Thing.
"Holy heck there're dinosaur bones down here!!" Kaede said gleefully as she thought of all the money she could get for selling this thing.
She stuffed the bone in her pocket and began pulling more clumps of dirt away. "Hehehe!!! Money!!!"
