Morning

Caspar had come every single day for a few weeks now, and I had gotten to know him better.

I found out he loved the colour blue, his namesake twin was a ghost character called 'Casper' and that everyone mixed up his name, and his favourite sweets were jelly tots, he had a sister called Theodora, and he loved dogs.

I didn't really tell him much, just that I obviously love tigers and green is a gross colour, and I really liked the movie "spirit" when I was younger. I'd didn't mention how I ended up here with Kip, and I also didn't mention my sister or parents, they weren't important to me now.

Caspar was actually quite amusing, and he was fun to talk to. We chatted for a long time whenever he came, and now he knew we were here, he often bought me food and some meat for Kip at the butchers. For some reason, Kip warmed up to him and they got along quite well, but I still didn't allow Caspar to get too close to him, you never know what he might do.

So, everything was fine, I made Caspar pinky promise not to tell anyone I was here, though he seemed hesitant whilst doing so, and we became good friends. We played games and did quizzes and he took photos of us on his phone, mostly me on his back or us both laying down, my head opposite to Caspar's. I wouldn't allow him to take photos of Kip, just in case. And life was going pretty good.

Midday

But it was when Caspar came running in today, no bag to be seen, a look of pure guilt on his face, that I felt worried, I knew something was up and wrong, and he looked like he'd been running away from someone or something. He started panicking once he got near, his hair slightly sweaty.

"J - Joe, K - K - Kip, m - move, now!" He panted, using his hands to usher us forward, alarming both the tiger and me, we were both confused, but we listened, and I jumped down from the tree again and grabbed my bag, rope, and Kips lead and attached it to him, at we ran off.

We didn't stop until we reached the other side of the lake and we disappeared into the trees, my throat was burning and I felt as if I was going to collapse, but we were in a small field hidden by a circle of trees, and you would never be able to see us, it was safe.

I dropped everything I owned, and sat down in the middle of the grass, and Kip sat down beside me, not even slightly out of breath at all, whilst Caspar and I were still heaving and wheezing, puffing and huffing for eternity.

Once Caspar and I both calmed down a bit, he stared at me, before sitting down in front of me, biting his lip in nervousness, and I knew he was going to tell me pretty bad news.

"Joe.." He whispered sadly, staring at his hand uncomfortably, and Kip and I shared a glance before looking back over to him, quite concerned about this boy that had been helping us both the past few weeks.

"Joe, you're going to be so mad at me, but - but - I - I took a, a video of you and Kip, doing that dance thing, t - the day Josh and I found you, a - and I, well, I may have uploaded it to YouTube and it may have gotten over q million views?"

My mouth dropped.

My heart dropped.

My stomach dropped.

My eyes opened widely, burning with anger, my nostrils flared and my cheeks went red, my breathing quickened and I knew I was going to hit him, but I couldn't, I couldn't hurt him.

He hung is head in shame, and I knew Kip sensed my anger, and he growled at Caspar, ready to attack him if he needed to.

I tried to calm down, but anger took over me, and I had to try very very hard not to punch him in the face or kill him maybe, but I did allow myself to scream at him.

"HOW DARE YOU! H - HOW DARE YOU DO THIS TO US! OVER ONE MILLION PEOPLE? HOW COULD YOU! YOU - YOU HAVE RUINED EVERYTHING CASPAR, EVERYTHING WE WORKED FOR! WE TRIED TO STAY HIDDEN, WE TRIED TO STAY ALIVE! AND YOU DESTROYED IT ALL! HOW - HOW -"

Caspar suddenly threw a hand over my mouth, pushing me backwards while my screams were muffled, and I tried to push out of his grip, but he was too strong, and I was tiny compared to him, but I didn't stop moving.

"Shut up!" He hissed at me, looking behind him repeatedly as he did so, "that's not it!" I struggled and fought but he held me as tight as he could but I couldn't break free of his grip.

"There's people who want you and Kip, they're planning on taking you both to the circus!" He told me, shaking me slightly, and my mind went blank again, and my eyes went fuzzy and out of focus with fear.

I suddenly felt so overwhelmed that big, fat tears streamed down my face and I was crying, I was crying out of anger and fear and I didn't know what to do about it, crying out of dismay and distraught, and I've never cried so hard before.

I was so angry, so upset that he'd do something like this to me - to us.

My tears rolled onto Caspars hand, which was still clamped over my mouth, and he have me an apologetic look, but I glared at him, and he removed his hand, wiping my remaining tears on his t - shirt.

"Get lost." I muttered, anger very visible in my voice. He sighed, and tried to reassure me, but I pushed him away, starting to yell.

"Leave Kip and me alone! You don't know nothing!"

Caspar looked almost stricken, his eyes dull and guilty, he looked defeated and restless, and I almost felt bad.

Almost

But Kip suddenly let out a massive roar, his teeth baring, his paws stretched, eyes filled with fury, as he sensed my anger and took matters into his own instinct, something that was helpful, yet also dangerous.

Caspar looked terrified, before slowly backing away, turning around, and disappearing, the only trace of him left were the marks he left on the grass with his shoes, but he was gone.

And I wasn't sure if he was going to come back.
