~(Yes little one I am sorry before the Russian comes please leave)~

His name is nick

Are you destroying the warren?!

~(No harm has come to anything)~

"ASTER!"

Shhhh my bloody head urts too much of Nicks booze.

Yer wind better not wreck anythin

"Shes not mine, and she said everything is fine she must like you"

~(I do not)~

*Aster grunts as he stands up and stretches*

Come on we better leave before Nick finds out

"Why is he doing this?"

He said it was for your protection

But I see now you are not a child you know whats after yuh don't ya? 

"The grinning one"

That's what others call him by

I never told Nick or the others about the cave 

"Lets go there"

*Aster picked Jack up walked to his room grabbed sir bunny and left through a hole*

*Jack and Aster reappeared inside of Jacks Cave*

*The walls were melting but still holding*

I guess it really has been over 10 years

~(20)~

Stop it 

~(Fix the walls Little one)~

*Jack held his staff to the ceiling uttering*

"Ice cover for 30 turns of earth the walls of this cave" ~(You don't  have to say that anymore)~ I know its habit 

*The cave returned to what it had looked like 20 years ago*

~(Good now to Flee she worries, the other will come back)~

Yes I know

"I'm heading out"

I'm coming

"Fine"

~(He knows The garden it will be faster)~

"You know the garden?"

Yes do you want me to take us?

"Please"

You trust me? After everything I did?

"The wind suggested it and I always trust her, even though she likes to play mean tricks"

~(you love it)~

I did not like the cliff diving in the dark with out my staff

~(Lies)~

*Jack rolled his eyes and shook his head refocusing on Aster*

"Shall we?"

Why did yuh roll yer eyes!

"Just something the wind said"

*Aster gave an odd look but picked Jack up, Bridal style like always, and left down a hole to the garden*

*As soon as they entered the garden the girl was there*

Ah Flee is here

Just a simle as always

~(You two never needed words not even when you were alive)~

Jack?

"Shes grabbing what she needs to cut my hair and nails"

First I'm going to give you a bath!

then cut your nails and hair

"I don't need you to bathe me!"

Then do it yourself for once! Jeezzzz!

*Jack left to take a fast bath*

The wate smells like peppermints?

~(I may have hinted you were coming by)~

Thanks.

HEY! you look all clean!

*Jack was dripping with water only a towel on his lower half clothes in hand*

Why is he looking at me like that?

~(He likes you K.I.S.S.I-)~

Knock it off we are friends

~(Suurre)~ 

You are in too good a mood

~(Never)~

*Flee gave Jacks head a rub signaling she was done*

"I'm ready! Lets head back to the cave!"

Already? You don't want the peppermint leafs?

"I bathed in it silly kangaroo"

His simle ~(K.I.S.S.-)~ Stop it

*Aster again picked Jack up giving a nod to the girl who blushed*

* They arrived back at the cave this time there was a cat sleeping on the bed*

*The cat was pink and purple and very small*

Hes here

~(Keep calm)~

"Hey kittie"

Isn't that-*Aster was cut off by jacks hand on his mouth*

"It's okay"

     Is it Jack? The cats voice purred in a childs' tone

"It wasn't my fault I was gone I was under a spell"

     You left me! YOU PROMISED

" I am sorry "

~(Ask about the Lake)~

"The lake.. I can't remember what happened?"

      You were not paying attention to me! 

      So I made you! I Wasn't going to let you drown!

      I promise I was going to grab you!

* The cat got up transforming in to human form.*

*Before them stood a five year old boy with pink and purple hair down to the back of his knees. 

  He had one yellow eye and one red one. Scars covered his little body. He still had whiskers and long nails. He was crying and sniffling*

"Come here" * Jack opened his arms and the cat like boy placed himself there*

Jack?

~(tell him)~

"This is Kit short for kittie"

*Jack moved to the bed Kit still in his arms crying*

"I found him well he found me."

"The first 10 years he did nothing but try to kill everything in his path, He can control people thoughts briefly and their actions"

"The better he knows then the easier"

"I found him probably when I was 250 years old, I am now 345?"

Yes 345 ~(Yes)~

"He was smaller then, he was hurt by alot of humans and I look human"

"The poem you wrote was from the first 10 years"

"I learnt he was just lonely like me so I promised him I would stay with him"

*Jack pet Kit as he was now asleep peacefully in Jacks lap head on Jacks chest*

So he must be a mages cat

"What?"

A mages Cat is usually a mortal cat but this one seemed to have been a boy? It is agaisnt the rules. 

But a magic person can give imortallity to a cat they wish to have beside them forever, it usually changes their coloring.

But doesn't allow them to become human.

I don't understand honestly. So hes like your kid? And he threw a tantrum? thats all?

~(Maybe I do like this kangaroo)~

Yeah me too

~(K-)~STOP

"Yes thats right he was hurt alot he ages very  slowly, And I can't really raise him right I guess?"

It is not yer fault you are trying, it will help if you know what he is. I am going to tell Nick you stay here. Wait should I bring you two somthing to eat?

"He still drinks from a bottle"

*Jack grabbed a bottle from the shelf above his bed it was well hidden*

"Warm milk?"

I will get it

*Aster disappeared*

"Hey, I'm sorry I am trying though really I love you Kittie"

    I love you too daddy. I'm sorry I hurt you I didn't mean to I I didn't think

    I didn't think you would drop your staff but the bunny startled me

"He startled me too"

*Jack got up and dressed then went back to the bed*

    I am so hungry..

" I know have you eaten at all?"

    Yeah flee gives me milk in a bowl I make a mess she laughs

"Cute"

*Aster reappeared*

...Is he surprised Kit is awake?

I brought a pot full... I don't know how much he drinks or how long it has been... I am sorry little guy

~(I think I really like him)~

"Thank you"

   The wind really like you big bunny!

You can hear the wind?

   Can't you? Can't you hear it all?

Hear what?

   The flowers, the wind, the grass, the water , the ice, spirits, people all of it!

"I don't think so Kit"

I hear the plants little one

*Aster pat Kit and handed Jack the full bottle, then left*

    He hears the plants, you the wind. There are people like me?

"Yes we aren't as special as you though"

~(Both Kit and Jack are very special)~

*The boys laughed*

"The wind is as possessive as always"

*Kit nodded as Jack began to feed him both fell asleep together. Jack holding Kit close to his chest neither was cold that night inside their icy cave*
