Your Last Wish

Chapter 8

                        Goldie ran outside as Mama Bear dropped the ginger cat. You lifted your leg in a pained moan. "One, two, three!" you groaned. You dropped back down to the ground in a pained sweat. The ginger cat followed the girl and bears outside as Perrito sat by your side. 

                        "Be careful!" the dog warned. "I'm fine!" you snapped. 

                        Perrito looked surprised but was still worried. Your anger melted at his frown. Your head met the carpet. You let out a long laborious sigh. "I'm sorry, Perrito...just give me a few minutes to rest." you answered. A smile curved at his muzzle. "Okie Dokey!" he yipped. 

                         "I'll be outside! Just holler if you need me!" he said. You pulled him in close and nuzzled his head. "Thank you." you whispered hoarsely. The sound of his nails scratching the floor signified his leaving. You slumped into a lazy position. Your hand traveled to your leg as you squeezed it tightly. A yelp ripped from your throat. "If it weren't for that damned wolf, I'd still be able to kick culo!" you hissed.

                         'You take pain well.' his voice echoed in your mind.

                        You glared at the carpet before lifting your head. "He's right. I do take pain well. I won't let it kill me now!" you grinned. With renewed vigor, you lifted your knees and your elbows to support yourself. You grabbed onto the couch just as you heard a yell from outside. It certainly wasn't the dog. You limped outside the broken door to see...Puss! "Puss! Puss wait!" you yelled. Puss took notice of your frame in the doorway. "Not now!" he yelled, as he started to run out of the gates and over the hill at the speed of light. Perrito was stuck in a hole. "I'll come with you!" Perrito yipped. "Sorry, Perro, Puss in Boots walks alone!" Puss hollered to the pup. 

                      I rolled my eyes as I looked at the dog. "Do you need a little help, amar?" you asked. He nodded vigorously. You picked him up but his arms as you lifted him into your arms. He licked your face happily as you chuckled. "How do you know Puss in Boots?" he asked. "I was going to ask the same of you, pup." you answered. He nodded as a 'ooo' left his mouth. "Yeah me and him go way back, I met him 5 hours ago!" Perrito answered, his tongue lathing out. Your mouth curved into devilish grin as you set the dog down. "We gotta find out what he's doing. What are we waiting for? Let's go!" you said. You noticed a nearby wagon with a horse attached to it. You hoisted the little pup into the wagon as you whipped the reins on the horse. "Giddyap!" you yelled. You were excited, the thirst for adventure flowing through you veins. You were to preoccupied to notice the shadowy figure watching you from afar. His glowing red eyes watching you till the wagon was out of sight. 

                                              "La curiosidad mató al gato, amor".
