The Breath Of Life novel Chapter 35

I got out my dagger, I quickly sniffed the air, then I know what it was, it mountain lion. "A mountain lion is near." I said in a whisper.

We both stood still, waiting until it appeared. It came through the bushes, crouching down hissing at us. I stood in front of Tim, who is about to jump, but I cut him off.

I walked up to it, crouching down as well. I looked around to see if anyone was around, I know Tim is, but I have to see what's wrong.

I raised my hand placing it directly on its wet nose. 'Who are you, are you here to hurt me?' The mountain lion said through the mind link.

I shake my head no. "We are not here to fight, just to pass." I said in a whisper. The mountain lion shook its head, and stepped away to let us pass.

"Come on wolf, we got to hurry." I said walking straight ahead with Tim on my right side.

I made it to the house, Tim ran off to do something. I walked inside the house to see Zach sitting down in the living room. Also Mary was here, and Daniel.

Their eyes almost pop out of their eyes. That's when I remember that my shirt is covered in blood. "Light, what happened to your arm?" Mary said running to me.

"I'm fine, just ran into a bear today. Don't worry I scarred it away." I said looking at Daniel who mouth was wide open.

"WHAT, A BEAR HURT YOU! WHERE IS TIM. TIM WHERE ARE YOU!" Mary said yelling.

Tim came rushing in, looking like crap. His hair is messed up, his pants is a little ripped, and he has a few cuts on his arm. I sighed looking away from him.

"What happen to you?" Daniel said speechless now.

Tim looked at me, then looked at Zach who is now looking at me with worry. "I-I kind of went through a thorn bush." Tim said quickly, but I know he got himself hurt because of me.

"I'm going to take a shower, and I'm going to sleep. I'm tired." I said walking away.

"But it's only noon." Mary said.

"I know, but I'm tired. See you later." I said walking up stairs to my room. I took a quick shower again, then head to bed.
