to see. She couldn’t believe how stupid someone could really be. Now, thanks to Stina, they had no place to live. “That cottage was built in 1804 and was burnt down in 2008.... It was old, but it was still in good shape.” The anger revealed itself in Millie’s voice. There were no words to describe how furious she was. She stood up and walked out of the room. Everyone heard the front door slam.

“Should someone go get her?” Jean asked.

“She always does this.... She’ll be back,” Champ told Jean.

Millie was walking into the town. She was walking to the remains of the cottage. Kat showed up. Of course, when she didn’t want to deal with anyone, the last person who had shown up was her enemy.

“I want to help you wolves defeat that dog-witch.”

“No.... And now that you’re not dating Champ.... I can say.... Noooo.” Millie didn’t want to deal with a cat shape-shifter, who could turn their back on them. Actually, Millie didn’t want to deal with anyone who wasn’t a wolf.

“Please?” Kat asked.

“Let me think.” Millie looked away and pretended to think. She looked back at Kat. “No.” She started walking away.

Kat just stood there watching as Millie walked away. “WHERE ARE YOU GOING?!” she called to Millie.

“NONE YA!” Millie called over her shoulder. She disappeared into the dark street.

Millie finally arrived at the cottage. She was the only one around, but she heard someone talking to her. The voice was one that she had heard before. A man was talking. She turned around and it was as if night had turned into day. She was standing in the kitchen of the cottage. A man, who looked to be in his thirties walked past her and went to the fridge. The man looked so familiar to her. She knew who he was and she felt like crying at the sight of the man.

“What do you want, Millie?” he asked.

“To see you and mom for one last time,” she said to herself. She knew that Charlie couldn’t hear her, but she couldn’t help it.

“I want a Dr. Pepper, daddy,” a little girl had answered.

Millie had looked over to see a seven-year-old girl, walking into the kitchen. She remembered that day. It was the summer of 1998. It was a few days before her parents were beaten to death by the humans.

“A Dr. Pepper? What is a Dr. Pepper?” her father asked, joking around.

Young Millie laughed. She had no clue what the future was going to bring.

“Mommy and daddy aren’t going to be around for to long.... So spend as much time as you can with them.”

Millie knew that they couldn’t hear her, but she couldn’t keep her mouth shut. It was only a memory.

Alone

Millie stood out in the cold because she didn’t want to leave. She didn’t want to go back to Jean’s. She didn’t want to go any where else. She wanted to stay where the cottage once stood. She walked over to a tree stump and sat down. She looked around, all she could see were trees and a big empty space where the cottage had once sat. The crusted moon had grew bolder, and she noticed her claws were starting to grow. She heard someone walking behind her. She could since fear from the person and she knew who it was. “How did you know where to find me, Jean?” she asked. She didn’t bother to turn around.

Jean stopped in her tracks. She didn’t understand how Millie had known it was her without turning around.

“Champ told me that you might be here.”

Millie didn’t say anything. She just wanted to be left alone. She stood up and turned to face Jean. “I don’t want any company.”

“Champ told me you would say that.... Look I just want to help you guys. It’s not like when I was working for Jack.”

Millie rolled her eyes. “Whatever.” She started walking away. She stopped next to Jean. “Don’t follow me.”

Jean heard the anger growing in Millie’s voice. She watched as Millie walked away. She felt so bad for Millie and she wanted to help.

                                         *****

Lacy walked around Jean’s house. She was exploring. She looked at pictures which Jean had hanging up and noticed some plants. She made her way upstairs.

The door in front of her led to the bathroom. There were two other doors on each side. They were all closed and she figured that they were bedrooms. She didn’t want to walk in without permission. She walked back downstairs and went into the living room.

Stina and Wagner were in the living room. They were both sitting on the couch watching TV. Lacy sat down on the love seat. It was quiet except for the sound which came from the TV and the laughing which came from the two youngest wolves.

Lacy was bored she didn’t know what she was going to do. Kyle and Champ had gone with Jean to go get Millie. She noticed a picture which was slightly tilted on a wall in the little family room across from her. No one else payed any attention to it because they could barely tell. She had to fix it. She stood up and walked into to the family room.

“Where are you going?” Stina asked. She followed Lacy with her eyes.

“To fix that picture.”

“Oh.” Stina started watching the TV again. She should of known.

Lacy always fixed things which seemed to be out of place even if they looked fine where they were.

Christina walked down a street. She noticed a man who was dressed like a Santa Claus. He was holding a bell and he was standing next to a pot which held coins for charity. Christina walked past the man and when he wasn’t looking she grabbed some of the coins and slid them into her pocket.

A cat ran past her and transformed into a human. The girl turned around and grabbed a few coins from her pocket. Kat didn’t pay any attention to Christina. She walked past the woman and dropped some coins into the big, black pot.

“Thank you, young lady.” The man smiled at her. “God bless you.... I know that the children at the orphanage will be thankful too.”

Kat returned the smile. “I’m glad to give to others.”

“Merry Christmas and Happy New Years.”

“Merry Christmas to you too.... Good night.” Kat turned around and walked past Christina for the third time. She still didn’t notice that Christina was standing there.

Christina seen everything and she smiled. She could trick Kat into helping her control the dogs who lived in the town. She had an extra dog whistle for Kat to use as well. She had cleaned it after letting another cat shape-shifter use it, trying to get the vampires and bats to work for her. That plan had failed horribly, but this time she wasn’t going to let anything ruin this.
                                              *****

Millie knocked on a door. She had walked four miles in the cold and she stood on a green porch. She waited for someone to answer the door. She heard a dog barking, and by the way it sounded, she figured that it was a male German Shepherd.

Millie watched as someone opened the door.

Tom was kind of surprised to see Millie. “Oh hello.” He opened the screen door to let her in. “Come on into the warm air.”

Millie set her sweater on a coat rack. She smiled when she see a male German Shepherd walking over to sniff her. “Hi.” She had a soft spot for other dogs. They were her favorite animals along with wolves. She kneeled down and started petting him. “What’s his name?”

“Cody.”

“Hi, Cody.” She spoke to him like she was talking to a little kid. “I’m Millie.”

Cody liked her face.

“My boyfriend’s going to be jealous.” Millie couldn’t help but smile. She could tell that Cody was a young, healthy dog. He was well fed and he was still growing. He seemed to be about eight months old. She knew that

Tom and Jane treated the dog like he was a baby. She could tell by the way he wanted her to play with him that they must of spoiled him.

“I’m going to go let Jane know that you’re here. You can hang in here with Cody.”

“Okay.”

Tom walked out of the room. Millie played tug-a-war with the cute little German Shepherd puppy.

Kat's Decision

Kat sat in the living room of her little appartment. She had a long day and decided that she needed to relax. She watched a movie to take her mind off of the terrible day.

Someone had knocked on the door. Kat looked at the clock which said 12 O’ clock am. Kat stood up to answer the door. She was confused to as why someone would be knocking on someone else’s door that late at night. It kind of made her mad.

When she opened the door, she was ticked off to find Christina standing out in the hall. “YOU WINCH! You’re the reason why my boyfriend dumped me.”

“The last time I checked, I was a leo,” Christina told her, sarcasm in her voice.

“Why are you here?”

“I understand that you’re a cat shape-shifter.” Christina walked into Kat’s apartment without Kat’s permission.

Kat was confused by Christina’s statement. That didn’t answer anything. “Yes I am.... But that doesn’t answer my question.... Why are you here? Why are you in my house?” Kat was angry at this woman.

Christina noticed a picture on one of the walls. She seen Kat standing next to a guy who was kissing her cheek. Christina recognized the guy and smiled. The guy was Champ. She turned to face Kat. “So, you’re boyfriend broke up with you.... What was his name?” She knew the answer but wanted Kat to tell her. She had an idea on what she was going to do.

“Champ.”

Christina reached into her pocket and pulled something out of it. She didn’t let Kat see what it was. “What would you say if I told you that I can help you win your boyfriend back?”

Kat was really confused. This woman was the reason why Champ had broken her heart and she was willing to help Kat get him back. It didn’t make since to Kat. She had no clue how
