Catty

Beefers? Beefers...

Author's Note:  A new part of the story. I didn't have that great of a title for this part, so it's like the last part. Of course, the actual part isn't like the last part, but yeah know, that's life. There's some important information in this part of the story.

 What's the information? Read to find out for yourself. 

Enjoy! :)

-----------------------------------

 Scar's POV:

 Void, Grian, and I flew through the sky high above the jungle. Good news is that Beef's base is incredibly close to X and Void's base. Bad news is that Grian isn't liking that fact that I have to hold him due to his smaller size. 

 " Mrroooooow!" Grian wiggled back and forth as he waved his front paws down towards Beef's villa. I tightened my grip on the wiggly feline, " G-Grian please! We're high up in the air, and I don't want you to fall!" I yelped as Grian suddenly stopped wiggling and made an annoyed huff. 

 A loud laugh came from Void as he appeared in front of the two of us, " COME ON!" he waved his claw as his wings continued to buzz. I nodded my head and followed the bee hybrid as he dove towards the front door of Beef's base. 

 When we landed on the ground, I placed Grian onto the ground causing his body to fluff up. Grian's ears twitched as he looked up at me, " Mreow." he blinked a couple of times, " Can you actually see, Grian?" I questioned as Grian blinked a few more times until his ears lowered. 

 " Isn't your friend nearsighted?" Void questioned as Grian's ears raised. The cat made a small, annoyed sound as he looked down at his paws. I picked Grian up again causing him to hiss, " I'm just putting you onto my shoulder man." I explained causing the cat to nod as I placed him on my shoulder.

 Grian's long tail swished as he turned himself around until he was comforting facing forward and purring. I was about to aww at him, but I don't think that he'll be too happy with me finding his new cat behavior adorable. Will that stop me from thinking it is? Absolutely not. 

 Before I could say that I was ready to search for Beef, a loud, long yell came from inside the hermit's home. The three of us hurried inside but didn't initially find Beef. I looked towards Void as his wings buzzed, " I'm going to fly above the sky and see if I see VintageBeef." he nodded his head as he left the building and took off into the sky. 

 I frowned as I started to go room by room in order to find the bull hybrid. 

 " BEEF? MAKE ANOTHER NOISE IF YOU CAN HEAR ME!" I shouted with my hands cupped around my mouth. Grian let out a loud series of meows as well. 

 A soft whine came from the outside garden. Grian and I looked at each other then hurried out towards the giant fountain. When we got there, we found a Beef leaned up against the frozen thing of water.

 I kneeled down next to him and Grian hopped off of my shoulders. Gently, I touched Beef's face causing his eyes and nose to scrunch up. The bull hybrid made a soft mumble as his ropey tail thumped against the stone pathway. 

 Beef slowly opened his eyes and revealed how they were now incredibly pale. His ears twitched as he turned his head towards me, " S-Scaaar? That you?" he questioned as I let out a soft 'hmm' in response. It's good that Beef can still see even with his eyes like this. 

 A small, pained smile crept onto the hybrid's face as he reached his hands out to me, " I don't feel goood, but 'm glad that you came to vissssiiiit." he slurred as he started to fall over. Grian let out a small hiss as he hurried to Beef's side and shoved his head against him. 

 Beef slowly shifted to the other side and started to fall over to his right. I narrowed my eyes and put my arms on either side of him in order to support his his limp body. The hybrid made a small snort as he started to close his eyes.

 " Y-You need to find... e-evil cat ladyyyyyy..." Beef gently put his hand against my arm as he fell into a heavy, weakened sleep. Grian let out a sad meow as he climbed onto Beef's lap and laid down on him.

 " Okay G-man, I need you to keep Beef company." I told Grian as he swiftly nodded and wiggled from side-to-side with a determined meow. I swiftly nodded back and stood up. 

 With a gentle fix of my robes, I looked around then hurried towards a room that looked like the beginning of a library. It looked like Beef was in the middle of building this room when he was attacked by the cat lady. 

 I looked at some of the books that had fallen off of the shelf with a frown. Now, I should be looking for the cat lady, but I can't just leave these books to have their spines ruined. I started picking up the books and found some papers underneath one of them.

 I picked up the papers and looked at them. A series of strange symbols surrounding one singular orb. One of the symbols, the one that looked like a bull, was already crossed off. The other symbols seemed to be a crystal, a bear, a dog, some stripes, and an eye. 

 Now, based on how the woman attacked Beef, I can assume that the other symbols could represent the other hermits or people from the other servers. With a frown, I shoved the paper into my pocket. 

 When me, Grian, and Void meet back up, I need to show them this piece of information. I nodded my head and left library. I looked up at the fountain and spotted Grian hissing angrily at something. 

 " What's wrong G-" 

 " GET BACK HERE YOU ROTTEN WITCH!" 

 I jumped and quickly moved to Grian and Beef's side with my sword out; my entire body was shaking as I looked towards the roof top and spotted the ginger cat lady sliding down the roof and into the courtyard.

 Behind her, Void came flying in with a bow and arrow in claw. I looked to my right as Etho came running in with his hands glowing a bright icy blue mist. 

 I held my sword up to the woman with a grin as Void landed with his weapon drawn.

 " There's nowhere left to run." I growled as Grian jumped onto my back and scurried up to my shoulder. Grian let out a loud hiss in agreement as we all surrounded the cat shapeshifter.
