Chapter 4
Cai sat at his usual spot on the window sill later that day. While Katelin packed to go to the temple, he kept his eyes fixed to the white tiger who was pacing teasingly on top of the fence.
"That cat is openly mocking me." he grumbled.
Katelin closed her suit case and went of to the window.
"What cat?" she asked, peering out the window.
"It cheated! It jumped into the bushes when it saw you coming!" Cai growled furiously (If rabbits can growl).
Katelin shook her head as Amy and Sarah ran into her room.
"Your mom said that you were going to summer camp!" Sarah whined.
Katelin paused for a moment 'Oh yeah, they said that they'd say that it's a summer camp…'
"What's the big deal?" she asked "Both of you are going on vacation."
"But you might make better friends!" Both Amy and Sarah cried in unison.
Katelin shook her head.
The next day
"So this is the temple?" Katelin asked walking around with Kimiko, Rai, Clay, and Omi.
Cai was draped over her head with his paws hanging down on her forehead. Ever since they had gotten to the temple he had seemed more relaxed. And Katelin still wasn't entirely sure about why he had been so worked up about a stray cat. Katelin shrugged. Maybe he had always been a little bit paranoid but she never noticed.
They entered a big circular room. The four led her down a flight of circular steps.
"This is where we keep the shen gong wu." Omi explained.
"Just put the Golden Hourglass in one the drawers." Kimiko told her.
"How will I know what all of the shen gong wu do?" She asked as she set it a drawer.
"Sometimes we train with them;" Clay explained "we'll teach you then."
Kira peered down the staircase, and silently ran out of the building. She climbed a small tree near the wall and jumped out of the temple. She walked for a few minutes until she came across a small stream. She sighed and lowered her head to the water to take a sip of the water.
"Kira," A cold voice said.
The white tiger looked up quickly, sitting on the other side of the stream was Chase Young.
"What are you doing here…?" Her tail flicked nervously by her feet.
"I'll keep my intentions to myself." He replied simply.
She bowed her head "Should I stop watching the girl? Her rabbit was getting a little suspicious, but he doesn't know that I'm here."
"Has she seen you?"
"No, not yet;" The tiger replied softly "But she's noticed that the rabbit is a little worried."
"Keep following her until a certain time," he instructed her "then I'll take it from there."
"I'm sorry… but I'm not exactly sure what you meant by that." she mumbled her head still bowed.
"You'll know."
"But," she looked up and he wasn't there anymore.
She sighed and headed back towards the temple.
A/N: AHOY! So sorry I couldn't update as quickly as I had wanted to but my computer was acting weird when it came to making documents... unless it was the website. But I've gotten fresh ideas so it won't be long until my next update! r&r
