Storm peeks into the oven again. "Are they done yet?"
Kat cracks open the door, then sighs in exasperation. "For the umpteenth time, not yet!"
Ten seconds later, the oven dings, and Kat smirks. "Okay, now they're ready."
Storm screams in frustration. "FEED ME ALREADY!!!"
"Feed yourself, child."
"Fine!" Storm reaches for the cookie tray, then yelps when Kat smacks her hand away. "OW!"
"..After you've run a lap around the house, of course."
Storm snorts and crosses her arms across her chest. "Yeah, I'm not doing that."
Kat shrugs. "It's your call. I guess that they're all mine, then." She grins and raises one to her mouth.
Storm whimpers and casts a longing glance at the cookie. "Perfect chocolate chip..." She whispers, watching the melted chocolate ooze out of the side.
Kat holds up a couple of fingers. "Two laps, now. You'd better make up your mind quickly."
"DANG IT!!! I'm going, okay?!!"
"I knew you would. You're so purr-dictable, Stormling."
Storm sticks her tongue out at her, then begins to race out of the kitchen.
"AND AN EXTRA LAP FOR YOUR SASS!!!" Kat hollers after her.
"NOOOOO!!!" Storm wails pitifully mid-jog.
Kat chuckles and high-fives her grandfather's ghost. "Good, eh?" Then she yells at him in realization. "YOU'RE HERE AGAIN?!!"
Storm whizzes by them, wheezing. "Oh! Hi, Kat's grandpa!" Then she screams in terror and immediately faints.
Kat and the ghost look at each other.
"Okay, that one's on you, you monster."
Her grandfather smirks and shrugs, snatching a cookie from the counter gleefully and floating away with it.
"..And just how do you plan on eating that with your transparent constitution- OW!!!" The cookie flies through the air and smacks Kat in the forehead. "I WILL EXORCISE YOU!!!" A random mixing spoon soon follows the cookies' flightpath, and she leaps away from its alarming trajectory with an enraged yowl, landing on all fours, then immediately jumping back up again. TATAAAAAAAAA!!! THAT'S IT, I'M GETTING MY BIBLE!!!" She spins on her heel and takes after his fleeing figure, Kat yelling mixed-language oaths, and Tokka begging her to let her teach the ghost a lesson.
Gayle pops her head out from under Storm's hair and watches them go. "Oh, so that's where Tokka's ended up." She levitates over to the cookie tray and picks one up. She studies it for a moment, then opens her mouth up impossibly wide and swallows it whole. She finishes with a dainty burp. "Kat was right. She is a magnet for many strange powers. ..No wonder I sensed two otherworldly presences here today." She glances at a random demon passing through. "Not including you, of course. Hey, Steve! Is that you?"
The demon hisses at her, and she gasps. "Really! There's no need for that kind of language, Stevenus!" She snarls at a growl from him. "You try hurting any of these people here, and I swear that I'll rip out whatever passes for your internal organs and put them on display in my Miracle Box compartment. Understand?"
The demon emits a frightened whine and backs off.
Gayle bares her miniscule fangs at it. "RAAAH!!! FEAR ME, O SPAWN OF SATAN!!! I WILL EAT YOUR NONEXISTENT SOUL, JUST LIKE I DID TO YOUR BROTHER!!!" She cackles maniacally, a malicious glint in her eye. "NOW FLEE, YOU COWARD!!!"
