Eye Of The Cat

Chapter 9

I ran, power running through my mussels. I'm producing long strides. I love this, I feel so alive! I soared over big logs and rocks. I let out a roar type sound in delight. I'm not controlling myself, the wild cat inside of me is. I stopped at a big tree. I jumped up onto the tree and grasped on with my long claws. I climbed up the tree and jumped onto a branch up above.

I crouched onto the branch and looked out at the forest floor. My tail flicked back and forth. The birds chirped and I heard and smelled small rodents in the undergrowth of the forest. The wild cat inside me is pacing back and forth in frustration, she wants me to chase the animals. I stoped myself though. A million feelings ran through me before I turned now I'm just calm.

My ears twitched when I heard footsteps down below. I peered down and looked in the direction of the sound. Through my wild cat eyes I can see every detail. Luke is down there walking, looking around for something, or someone.

What is he doing out here? I thought. I made sure not to make a sound that would alert him. The leaves of the tree is covering me If he saw me it would be hard to explain. A giant black panther with a white star on her four head in Canada, you know because that wouldn't be suspicious at all. Note my sarcasm.

Minutes passed and he started to look inpatient with his hands in his pockets and him pacing. The wild cat in me is urging me to pounce on him to bite his neck. I stoped myself and became in control again, if I didn't she would have no trouble of jumping down there and killing him. The wild cat does not like him one bit and is telling me not to trust him. I heard another set of footsteps, I tensed up and raised my shoulders but I stayed unseen. A girl walked in through the trees, with blond hair and black eyes. I realized that she goes to school with me but I don't remember.

"Hi Lukein," she said sweetly, batting her eye lashes. Lukein must be his full name, wonder why he never told me.

"Hello Bridget, why did you want to meet me?" He asked.

"The Order sent me to find out if you know what happened to Arica. She is missing," she said. What is the order? I thought in confusion. She moved closer to him, placing her hand on his chest. "Not that I'm complaining, now I have you all for myself." She flirted with him. A growl threatened to escape my throat but stoped myself. Am I jealous of her? I thought. I shook my head to clear the thought from my head.

"I seen her two or three days ago but have not seen her since," he said.

"Oh, for some reason I think you did something to make her disappear," she said sweetly. She moved even closer to him and whispered into his ear. Because of my enhanced hearing I can hear her. "I won't tell anyone, it'll be our little secret." I feel like puking right now. He put his hand on her chin and moved her head to face him.

"Good," he said. She wrapped her arms around his neck and pulled him into her. She kissed him hard on the lips. He looked surprised for a second but didn't stop her. Twenty seconds passed of them kissing each other (puking in my head by the way) until he finally pulled away from her. I snarled quietly.

"Did you hear that?" He questioned. She shrugged, obviously still fazed by their little make out session.

"As much as I would love to continue this, I have to go back to the hell hole," she whimpered.

"Okay, but if you do anything to make The Order suspicious about me then you may not want to be near me," he said hardly.

"I understand," she said not fazed by the hardness of his tone of voice. "Good by." She kissed him on the lips then ran off. He looked frustrated. He looked around one more time before running off as well. I flicked my tail.

No wonder my wild cat doesn't like him, I have a feeling he can't be trusted.
