"A week?!" I screamed. I was devastated. The black cat looked up at me. "I can't change anything." He said. I thought for a moment. "Aren't you a demon?" I said quietly. The black cat didn't seem fazed. "I'm not good with healing and medicines." He paused. "I need that house back." He said. I sighed. "So you didn't want to help me?" The cat seemed shocked at my statement. "We demons have hearts for people too." He looked at me. "I felt.. bad for you. You were such a kind girl, and you didn't run when Ellen showed her true form. She was sick. And you didn't run." He looked at me, with a look that made my heart melt. "Th-thank you." He stared at me, making the silence even worse. The moment was interrupted by my vision going black, and I slowly fell backwards.

I woke up to the sound of the cat. "Hey, viola, you awake?" He said. I  slowly got up, on a pair of- legs? "Yeah, you were unconscious for 3 days." He said. I was shocked. "We only have four days left." He looked down. "Yeah...." he said sadly. I interrupted. "and why do I have legs?" He looked shocked at my question. "You have- oh my god, you do?!" He nearly screamed.

One hour later, we were sitting around a fire, and we had figured out why this happened. Apparently Ellen's ancestors did something unspeakle, and a young child would be cursed. Which was Ellen. And apparently that's what caused her sickness. But now that I'm in her body, I don't have her curse. Therefore, the body was, well, in a way, fixed. The black cat, however, interrupted my thoughts. "Don't we need a plan?" He said. I stopped, thinking. "I just thought of something." The cat turned to me. "Yeah?" He said waiting for me to answer. "Doesn't that mean Ellen has the curse?"
