Chapter 3- A human called Kat
It was a normal day for her. Clean the hut, wash the cloths, make everything nice for the men…but then it was night, the men were cooking dinner and things weren't so normal…
Barks and shouts woke up half the tribe. Of course all the women and children were ordered to stay in their tents, but this girl had a certain disregard for rules, and almost never did as told.
She snuck out of her tent and took a peek at what was going on.
"A saber! Hm, serves him right! Why do they always have to try and kill us?" she thought as she watched the wolves corner him. They were getting him pretty good, but then, a bird flew in.
She couldn't hear what exactly they were saying, but the bird flew off and the wolves went back to beating the young saber. "His is kinda young…" she thought as a ping of guilt welled in her chest. Maybe he didn't know what he was doing…
Just then, her 'father' ran forth with a spear. She looked at the fallen saber for a moment, biting her lip, deciding wither she should do something or not when suddenly he let out a strangled cry "I WANNA GO HOME!"
That did it. Without stopping to think, she ran out there, her arms spread out in a protective way. Her father skidded to a stop "KAT! I ordered you to stay in the tents! Stand aside!"
She was really scared, but didn't show it "Father please. He's just a cub! He didn't know any better! Can't you please leave him be?"
He frowned "THAT'S ENOUGH! First the mammoth, now the saber! No more! Did he tell you he's sorry? Did he ask you to save him?" Kat looked down. As if people didn't mock her ability as it is.
"UGH! You try my patience! I'm killing that beast!" he shouted as he pushed past her.
Kat's eyes widened "Oh man! He's gonna do it! Got think, think of something!" Suddenly she got it "WAIT!" He turned back angrily "WHAT?"
"Our sister tribe! Surely they are low on food, they might need it!" she said. "Which is why, I'm going to kill it!" he said back. She smirked "But if you kill it now, when you take it the meat will rot and the fur will be no good."
He stopped. He hadn't thought of that.
Slowly, he made his way back to her, pulled her by the hair and forced her to look at him "If anyone gets killed by that thing, you will be to blame, and you know the punishment for murder…" he slapped her cheek "I'll keep you to it." He whispered menacingly.
She rubbed her cheek as he walked back and told everyone to go to bed. All the tribesmen walked back to their tents, except for one…
Kat sighed and looked at Orion, the oldest wolf. At her nodded he came over to her.
"Yes ma'am?" he asked looking up at her. She smiled sadly "We're not killing the saber, tell everyone to back down." He nodded "Yes ma'am. But, what shall we do with him?"
Kat glanced over at him. He stared at her with huge pleading eyes, begging for his life. Still rubbing her slap she nodded and said "Knock him out."
Orion bowed "Yes ma'am." And ran back to them.
Kat heard the small gasp as the saber went unconscious. Another ping of guilt. She sighed sadly as she got a long stick and some rope.
The one man who had stayed behind walked up to her. He opened his mouth but she cut him off. "Don't start, Mashiu." She said tiredly.
'Mashiu', had long hair, which he wore in a ponytail and had a few markings on his face.
He sighed "Katriuna, why can't you do as you're told?" She frowned "He's just some kid! He didn't know what was here! He was probably just hungry and smelt the food!" and she angrily marched back to the unconscious saber.
Mashiu followed her and groaned "You're so defiant!" he paused, smiled and wrapped his arms around her from the back, resting his head on he shoulder. "But that's one of the reasons I love you."
She smirked "One?" He kissed her cheek "There are more, yes." He stared at the saber "…Kat, can you please…please, just try to listen? I mean, I hate to see Harni hurt you." As he said this he ran his fingers through her hair.
She pushed him off and frowned "Well then maybe you could stand up for me." He sighed "You know I can't. If I do, he'll kick me out of the tribe, I can't stand up to the leader…and I'd never get to see you again…"
She scoffed and continued to tie the saber up. Mashiu waited for a moment, then smiled "So…what'd he say?"
Kat pouted, "Are you teasing me to?" He chuckled "Not at all…I think it's cute." She groaned, "Well, if you must know, he said he wants to go home." She said 'home' a little louder.
He sighed, "Ok, I get it! Just come home (their tent) before sun-up. Ok?" She kissed him gently and smiled "Kay."
As soon as she finished tying up Nuto she walked up to the wolves. "Ok guys, sorry, you know the rules. Gotta tie you up."
Matt smiled "It's fine, how'd we do?" Kat grinned as she ruffled his fur "You were awesome! All of you were!" She patted each of them but Greg growled and walked away.
She looked confused "What's with Greg?" The others didn't know. She sighed, put the rope around their necks not to tight then went to talk to Greg.
Greg stared up at the sky angrily. Kat sat next to him "…So, what's up?" He frowned "Why didn't you let the master finish him off?"
She sighed "Greg, he's just a kid-"
"But one day he'll grow up and then what! You can't keep a monster as a pet! You remember what they did to Matt!" he snarled. She frowned "Matt didn't die! He's just fine!"
"Yeah, 'cept now he can't move his front leg!" Matt shouted. It was quiet for a moment. Then Kat sighed, "Come on, let's get ya tied up." He frowned "I'll do it myself." And he fit his head in the rope hole and angrily closed his eyes.
Kat sighed and looked at the sky "It's times like this I wish you were here Tamie…I mean, Nina...(sigh)..." With that, she walked back to the tent for a good night's rest.
THE END…for now!
Ok, this may or may not be coming as good as you like. So if Nuto's not dead, then where have they gone? Review and you just might find out!
