Chapter 6
"Ok, I'm going to get this." Katelin told herself for the hundredth time that day.
Almost two weeks had passed since she had come and there still hadn't been any new shen gong wu. So the Omi and the others had decided that this would be a good time for her to learn how to use them.
"Tangle Web Comb!" Katelin shouted, pointing the shen gong wu towards a rock.
To her disappointment, it went in completely the other direction and into some bushes. A loud and angry squawk came from through the branches. Cai's ears perked up nervously. Katelin walked softly over to the bush. A moment later a crow hopped angrily out of the bushes, glaring up at her.
"I say, what was that for!" He cawed.
"Umm I didn't mean," She was interrupted by the crow saying:
"Why do these things always have to happen to me!" the crow snapped "What did I ever do to the world!"
"I didn't mean to hit,"
"Does everyone have something against me?"
"I didn't mean to hit you!" Katelin said quickly.
The crow opened his beak to say something but closed it. Katelin bent down to untangle him.
"Are you ok?" she asked.
He nodded "Thank you and I'm sorry I started ranting like that. My name is William; may I ask what your name is?"
"Katelin," she replied "and this is my rabbit, Cai." she pointed to Cai, who waved.
Cai paused for a moment and asked "You haven't seen anything strange lately have you?"
William opened his mouth to answer but was interrupted by someone calling Katelin.
"COMING!" she yelled back "I'll be right back." she added on an undertone.
She picked up the Tangle Web Comb and ran towards the building.
"As I was about to say…" William sniffed "Yes, actually I have."
"What?" Cai asked quickly.
William cast a suspicious look around and motioned Cai to come closer. Cai leaned in closer looking around.
"I've been seeing a white tiger around." He whispered "You usually don't come across too many of them around here. Most of them hang around the mountains."
"How many times have you seen this tiger around?" Cai asked frowning.
William thought for a moment and replied "I'd day about… well every time I pass by here I've seen it."
"You said that most of them live in the mountains?"
"Yes, but they're not really tigers, and plus some of them are other kinds of cats…"
"If they aren't tigers then what are they?" Cai asked sarcastically "Wolves?"
"They're fallen warriors." William whispered "They all lost against Chase Young and now they're all some kind of cat."
"Who's Chase Young?"
William gaped "You don't know who Chase Young is!"
"Well I wouldn't be asking if I did."
"He's this evil guy, but that's beside the point." William whispered hurriedly "I'd say that this tiger is a spy for him and,"
"More like a stalker,"
"And, is watching Katy over there for one reason or another."
"She prefers Katelin," Cai mumbled looking around cautiously "What do you suppose he wants with her?"
"I don't know, but probably something bad… I know this sounds crazy but is Katelin the dragon of time?"
"Yeah," Cai said "she is."
William stared at Cai with his mouth hanging open "You keep an eye out for that tiger, and watch out for Chase Young!" William said ruffling his wings, about to take flight.
"Why! I don't even know what this Chase Young wants with her! Hey! Get back here!" Cai snapped as William took off.
"Cai!" Katelin yelled excitedly, running towards him "There's a new shen gong wu! And it's the second part of the Golden Hourglass!"
Before Cai could say anything Katelin had picked him up and was running towards Dojo.
A/N: AHOY! How do you like William? I know it was mostly dialogue but there will be more action in the next chappie! r&r
