Neko.

Chapter 10: Change.

"I was meeting my aunt for the very first time and I have to say that she was not what I had expected." Her style and flair she had given off more of a Catwoman vibe than an Aunt kind of feeling.

I was looking around her home while both she and the detective were getting her caught up on what had just happened in a separate room.

(Saraya) My sister and her husband were killed. I am afraid so. This all just happened and your niece saw the whole thing. And from what she told us.

It sounded like her parents want you to be a part of her life. I mean I did receive a letter from my sister a while back telling me that she wanted me to Willow's godmother.

Well, then I think that is a good idea. Why? Because she is an eyewitness and because of that she is now a target. So what do you want me to do?

Um, keep her safe. Where? Here. Oh, no. That is not going to happen. And why not? I don't do kids. Well, you do now. No, I don't. Yes, you do. Because right you are the only family that poor girl has left.

I never sign the paperwork to be her godmother. That is why I never called my sister back. Because I didn't want the responsibility. Look we just need you to keep her safe for three days.

By then we can have her testify. For what? The person who murdered your sister, her parents is Wilson Walker. And since she not only saw him do it. But she also has a photo of his face.

That kind of evidence is and will be enough for us to put him away for good. I'm sorry but, I can't help. Well, too bad. Like said. You are the only family that she has left. Now I care what you do.

But she needs you. So time to step up. While they were still talking. I was looking at some really old-looking artifacts and one of them had caught Misty's attention.

What is it, Misty? I walked over to her and I saw her sitting on a book and it had my amulet on the cover. What is this? Then, Meow. My aunt Saraya's cat caught me off guard as he let out that sound.

Jeez. You scared me there little guy. He may have scared me but he did take a liking to both me and Misty. Well, you seem friendly. Um, I looked at his caller and it said that his name was Mystery.

That's an odd name for a cat. I find it special. Oh, hello there. Well, I will leave you two ladies to get acquainted with each other. I will just show myself out.

But I will keep you both up to date about the case. Until then, Ms. Witmore. I need you to be very careful. Because once the story about what just happened goes on the news.

Wilson will send anyone he can to shut you up for good. And don't worry I will have some of my men to keep an eye on you. Thank you, I guess. Well is there anything that you need?

Yes. Could you have some of your officers please keep an eye on two friends of mine Certainly what are their names? Luke O' Darly and Chris Jefferson. They both go to my school.

And, they were the first two people that this Walker guy had met. Okay. I'll have someone watch out for them. Thank you. You're welcome and once again.

I am sorry for your loss. Thank you. The detective had left leaving both me and my aunt alone. Aunt Saraya had shown me to her guest room where I could sleep at.

(Saraya) Okay. So this is your room. I hope that you will like it or whatever. Thanks. So listen. I had a fashion show tomorrow. So I want you up at 6:00 so that we can leave on time.

What? Did you not hear me? No, I heard about it. Didn't you hear what that detective said? I am now a target. If I set foot out of this building then I could die.

Did your parents teach you how to fight? Yes. Then you'll be fine. But. Look, I did not ask to be your guardian, just like I did not ask for any of this. So if you are going to stay here with me. Then you will do what I say.

So that means being up on time. Got it. Now good night. Let's go mystery. And with that, both she and her cat had left me and Misty alone. And as I sat down on the bed I look at Misty and told her.

Something tells me that this isn't going to be fun. Well, good night girl. I had lay down on my bed and Misty had curled up right next to me on my pillow.

But as I was dreaming the night away. The detective was calling the station and asking him the Addresses of my two friends and had also told them not to let what happened to me get out of the news.

But thanks to someone at the station, it did. Almost everyone in Neko City was watching the news about my parents' deaths. Everyone was watching it that had included.

Chris, Luke, Veronica. And I had a feeling, Mr. Walker did too. Even the mayor had watched it from her home. My story was not out and I had no idea what tomorrow would bring.
