We all keep waiting to see and hear from Amanda and Jaqualine about an update on bringing Dylan back to life, but Leona started looking ill and holding her head in pain. "Leona?" We called out to her, but she wouldn't respond, still holding her head. Eva kept shaking her, but finally, she was fine and was hurting. "What happened to you?" Samantha asked. "I keep seeing this place, the house in the middle of woods...it seems familiar. I think that was the house I lived in, and then I kept hearing the voice repeatedly saying it wasn't their fault. It's a male voice." Leona said, confused. "I can draw and paint what you saw. Maybe we can use it to tie everything together," Debra suggested. "Yeah, we could, so we can finally figure out what the hell this all means so Leona stops being in pain," Eva said, hugging Leona. The little kitty showed up and started rubbing her head on Leona's leg. Leona picked up the kitty and petted it as it was very happy and purring.


We noticed the puppy was exhausted on the couch trying to stay awake, but Eva petted him to go to sleep. We all sat back down and started eating until a puff of smoke came off the cat. Then, when the slight smoke disappeared, we saw a cat girl sitting there. "Ummmm...Meow?" She said, confused. "May I ask how? Eva asked. "I have been trying to do this for a while, but sadly, I couldn't until I missed with one of your shards. I have ice powers now, but I finally became human again. Though from how it looks, I have cat ears, a tail, and my nails are sharp, but I seem to be able to retract them." The cat girl said


"Your outfit... it's a pop-rock outfit. Wait, are you who I think you are?." Eva asked her, looking through her phone for a picture. "Ummm...no?" The cat girl said, nervous. "You are. You've been a famous pop singer all the way from the past. It's not that far back, but like I want to say, when we were kids, Your Miriam," Eva said excitedly. "I was hoping none of you would remember, but seeing as the outfit I wore last time is still on me, even though I was a cat for years, it didn't help," Miriam said, looking sad. "What the hell happened to you...well, we know, but how did you become a cat?" I asked. "All I remember was after a show, I was given food, which, come to find out, was laced with something. I went out and woke up on a table strapped down with a big machine pointing at me with it powering up. Before I was shot with the beam 8, people in robes and masks showed up and started laughing at me and saying that I'm not out of the way." I got hit by the beam and turned into a kitty." Miriam told us.


"I'm wondering if these are the same people we're dealing with," I said. "It sounds like it," Debra said. "I know Leona since I was her cat when she was in that house you all were talking about," Miriam said. "That was the house I grew up in?" Leona asked. "Yes. I remember it, all of it somewhat. I know that a lot of the time, some strange people showed up to talk to your mom, especially when your dad was away working. Then the whole drama happened between your mom and dad when he got mad with her over the people showing up. I remember him saying she wouldn't be doing this if she truly cared about you. He then pulled out a gun and shot her. That's when you came in, confused and crying. Your father grabbed you and tried to take you away, but then your mom shot him. You ran over to your mom, crying, and she told you to keep running and not look back. You then ran out of the house before 911 showed up. I was taken to a pet shelter and escaped, but I have just been on the run for years. Honestly, I'm glad I was found, and Eva adopted me with the good boy over there. He's always fun hanging out with." Miriam said, licking herself.


"Why can't I remember any of this still. Even if I do, it's fuzzy. I need to return to that house when we are free, please." Leona said, looking sad. "We will go back there, but I think it would honestly be best if we have Chloe paint all of this so we can have a clearer picture of everything," I said to Leona. "Okay i will gladly do so while we wait" Leona said. "Well i have a cat to wash so i'll be washing this one" Eva said picking up Miriam like she was nothing. "I will bite you if you don't let go of me asshole" Miriam said getting mad as her tail get puffy. "Oh come on, your long hair is a damn mess in the back, the long strand of hair on the side of your face is a mess and the bands are shit to. Even your damn color is just a sad washed out colors." Eva said upset. "Fine you can wash me but don't get fun idea, I know how you act" Miriam said staring at Eva. Eva put on a creepy smile and quickly carried Miriam to the bathroom. Miriam tried to fight back and hold onto the walls, but Eva was too strong and made it to the bathtub with her. "Hey, do we know if Ophelia has recovered her powers yet or not?" Chloe asked. "I think she did but we can ask tomorrow" I responsed


A few hours had passed, and Eva successfully washed Miriam. Her hairstyle was still the same but more neat and even more colorful; it was a rainbow. She even got new clothes and was wearing her new pajamas. Her eye color even got brighter as they are now bright orange, and her skin color is less dirty, making it look more white and not dirty white. Miriam was still slightly annoyed to be washed but was happy to feel clean and a clean Neko. Eva started calling her a neko. I don't know where she got that word from, but it's now a new word used for cat humans.
