Whispering Flames

The crisp autum air blew through her lilac colored hair, whipping around her bare shoulders. Her light brown blouse losly hung on two strings tied around her neck in a neat bow in the back. Her seleves were puffy as they danced in the wind. Her Black ripped jeans clung closely to her thighs, while it opened up at her halves. A gold chain necklace sat cold against her warm neck. The Autum leaves danced in the wind, winding around her. Birdsong filled the air despite the chilly weather. A dusty brown tonkinese cat circled her legs and she crowched down to pet the tom.

"Hello Tadpole." She said stroking his soft fur. The sound of people sounded near the clearing where she stood. She froze in of fear of being found.

She sprinted, her light, dusty pink tall top converse accationally tripping over a few stickes. Tadpole raced beside her understanding the urgency. Her hair whipped her small, dark brown horns. NO ONE CAN KNOW! Her mind screamed. Her lungs ached but she kept running, refusing to stop and let her self be caught. Her comon sense told her to shift but she knew she would lose the cloths she bore. Tadpole looked up at her eyes wide and scared, He pointed to an opening in the base of a tree and she knew what must be done. He body went into a spasum of pain but as soon as it had appered it was gone and she had become a racoon. She grabbed her clothes and slipped into the hole with Tadpole, making sure she had everything. Men came bursting through the trees, stopped, looked around then spoke.

"WHERE IS IT?! MOTHER FUCKER! It got away!" The man in charge howled. He grabbed the hat on his head and stompped on it angerly.

He stompped away the plitune of men following close behind.

Once she was sure they were gone she crawled out and changed back into a human. Her naked body insintaly chilled. She quickly dresed and heading in a random direction with Tadpole trailing behind. After awhile of walking the sun began to set and the air became frozen. In the distance The lights of an inn began to flicker on and her and Tadpole started in that direction. The front of the inn was nicely decorated and looked very inviting. They enter and a small bell chimed, startling her.

"Hello young lady how may I help you tonight?" A larger, very welcoming lady said, standing behind a counter.

She waited patiently waiting for a response as she looked around the beautiful inn. She barly new english so it was hard to answer. "Uh, I ned a placee to stayy.." She managed.

The lady smiled, "Well I can tell you are tired and probly hungrey, Do you have any money?"

"Money.....?" She got very confused and tilted her head too the side, still loking at the lady.

"Okay well if you don't have any money you can't stay here." The lady said, frowning.

"Oh, ok I'll leave." She looked down at Tadpole and he gave away nothing about how he felt. Suddenly some one spoke behind her.

"I'll may for her miss."

She looked over to see a handsome man wereing what looked like an informal suit.

"Okay then, What is your name miss?" The large conter lady asked.
