I was cold and wet....I heard a noise, the noise from my head.

"Hungry....hungry..." She said

"Shh. I'm hungry to" I said my left foot stop making me tripped on my right foot falling on my face looking up, not opening my eyes because they were covered with mud. I sat up now sitting on my legs and wiped the mud off my eyes, so I can see.

"I WANT FOOD NOW!" She said as I got up, but the I got 'pushed' to a broken tree.

"N-No, it is to wet and cold for hunting right now. I'm sorry but there is nothing I can do about food." I said putting my hands and forehead on the broken tree to heal the poor thing. When I looked up the trees branches where going back up and leaves forming in the wind and rained.

"Is there any chance we can go back to my father?"

"No, I'm sorry...I wish we can go back and see him, bu- *sniff*" I paused *sniff* "something is here or *sniff* someone" I said then my growl came out. (I have no control of my growl) I looked behind me and saw ruby eyes in a bush, when it saw me it ran somewhere. I thought it was a little animal or something like that.

"Let me kill it, I'm starving" she said my tongue licking my lips.

"No." I said in a whisper then I heard howling. "Wolfs." I said then out of nowhere a white and red wolf? No it look like a cat, but in a wolf body. I looked at it, my ears and tail forming and so if it attacks me I will be ready to fight back, even if I am just a kitten and that thing is 10x bigger then me. I will still win 'cause of what I am, but the wolf doesn't need to know that, the animal stop and sat down with its ears to the side. Then pink dust surrounded it, the dust disappears and a girl with white and red hair was there. I looked at her clothes they were ripped, she got down and crawled to me, her knuckles in a fist. I got down the wet dirt turning green and flowers forming around me.

"Are you a cat?" The wolf or cat said

"I'm a kitten..." I said turning my head to the tree I healed not so long ago. I felt a hand on my cheek, I turned my head and it is the girls hand.

"We're is your mom, aren't you supposed to be with her. You look a little young to be on your own" She question her hand going back on the ground.

"They..." I paused, can I trust her. "They died..." I said (it was some of the truth)

"Oh, sorry....are you hungry?" she asked

"Of course I am! I starving *cough cough cough* I mean yes...yes I am" I said

"Um, ok come...but stay by me when we get there...k" she said trying not to look sad or something, but the color around her was saying something different.

"...ok" I said. We both stood up and she healed out her hand, I looked at it and looked back at her then I took her hand, then we walk even more into the woods. "I don't know if we can trust her Nightmare." I said in my head. "Maybe, but I'm hungry! What do you think she has....maybe chicken or deer or-" I stopped her "not so fast, Nightmare. It can also be a trap" I told her wondering were we are going.
* * *
"Ok we are here..." She said. I looked around and saw I was in a circle of trees, but two trees were brown/black no leaves and bigger then the other trees. My mouth open and let words out that hopefully I won't regret.

"What's your name" I said

"Oh, my name is Scarlett...what is yours" she asked

"Nova" I said. I wasn't going to mention Nightmare, something could happen and I didn't want to fine out. A open my mouth again of what she is, but the wrong words came out... "How old are?"

"Um...I...." she paused "In what species?"

"What do you mean..." I question. What are species? I said in my head.

"Like humans, animal, monster" She said stopping for some reason, but I don't know why?

"What are humans?" I asked

"Will they can be bad or they can be good and most of the times delicious" She said then bit her lip, looking down.

"Whats wrong?" I question

"Will it's just my family eats humans some times, I don't like to even taste them." She said then I heard howling, I looked at Scarlett she turned back to her cat/wolf form and howled as well. I heard the leaves from a tree move, then out of no were a wolf jumped down!
