Passing Of Time - chapter 2
passing of time.
Chapter two
Katrina and Mickey start walking, then looking behind them they see the familiar place they called home disappear from sight... looking forward they see an open world full of adventures.
"So what we gonna do now Kat?" asked Mickey.
"Don't know lets wait and see... you may even find the one true love you day dream of." She jokes at him. Then pouncing her best friend she runs ahead letting him chase her they play in the new field. Mickey tries to catch up to her then he slows down not sure if he really is certain about leaving his den, leaving his family behind, 'I mean where was they going? What will they do for food? What if it rained?' he thought to himself. He knew Kat had been alone before but for him this was all new. He had never been anywhere with out his family, they was his life. Fair enough some days he would say things like he wished he was alone but now he really was... ok maybe not totally but Kat was different, after all Kat was a cat. Not a fox like him, not like his brothers, and what of his new brothers and sister, should he have left his mother so close to their birth. With that Kat pounced him again and this time both of them fell to the floor leaving Mickey on top of her giving him complete control over her body he looks straight into her eyes... a stillness fills the air, not a noise around them, breathing softly Mickey bends down - as if to kiss her but before he can he stops and Katrina looks at him then sticks her tongue out, not realizing what was happening, she giggles out loud.
"Damn you Kat!"
"What?"
"Nothing" Mickey gets up and continues walking. He thought to himself as they walked 'should a cat be allowed to mate a fox?' 'What would his mother say?' and then he looked at Kats sleek fur. He couldn't help it he had liked Kat ever since she first came into his life, he'd loved her for just over tree months but how could he tell her... he didn't want to ruin what they already had. So he decided to forget what had just happened and continue walking and every so often he would pounce on her playfully.
Whilst all this was going through Mickey's mind Katrina had been thinking also. But not on quite the same subject - she was just happy that this time her journeys we not journeys of cold dark days alone but of a new adventures with her best friend. She thought of all the adventures they could have along the way to where ever they decided to go of how they could catch food together and find somewhere dry to lay at night.
Time had passed and so had a number of green fields, as they finally come to a beck... looking down into the stream they take a drink.
"I think its time we stopped and found somewhere to rest for the night" Katrina says as she looks around. Spotting a small cave area she point to it... "How bout there" she asks.
"Sure" Mickey follows her as they walk over to the cave... "Let me check it first Kat" Mickey says "I am older than you after all!"
"Yer but I'm the experienced one after all"
"Just let me look first" he says in a sharper voice. This was the first time that Katrina had heard him ever stand up for himself with her, the first time he had ever seem - well in control and well manly.
With that Mickey went into the cave, he sniffed around a bit then after realizing it was empty he went back out to Katrina who looked like she was still in shock from him telling her what to do.
"Its ok - we can rest here tonight but I think we better go tomorrow looks like a bear sleeps here and we shouldn't be here when he gets back.
They both laid down and slept through the night- no sounds where heard and nothing disturbed their sleep but still Mickey couldn't quite settle. He kept thinking of Kat... how could he keep traveling with her and not tell her how he felt? How could he keep lying to himself about how he loved her and how they were just friends?
Dawn broke and they continued walking... on the way Katrina caught a few mice for them to eat and Mickey caught a few pheasants, which in turn made both of them full.
They traveled for a few days with nothing to tell of they never really had anything to worry them and finally they came to a nice area. This area was just on the edge of a forest but close to lake giving both the shelter and the lake for drinking.
"This looks ok here" said Mickey "how bout we stay here for a while and see how it takes us?"
"Sure why not" Katrina was glad to finally find somewhere she could call home again. She liked to have somewhere to keep coming back to even if it was just a day or two besides she was tired of walking all day. Fair enough they played along the way but there isn't much you can play whilst constantly walking - nothing that wouldn't take up too much time. Katrina was glad she had asked Mickey to come along, this would have being a bit lonely for her to travel alone again, and she was fed up of that.
"Mm that was nice; I've not had pheasant before we started walking now I've eaten plenty. Must say it takes kinda like chicken."
"Sure does just a little tougher to chew." Mickey turned to Katrina and smiled.
"I'm gonna go for a walk, you want to come to?" she asked him.
"Nah I'm going to rest for a while, tidy this place up a little." He looked around at the floor of their makeshift den. It wasn't much but it had room for improvement and he thought he could tidy it up nicely if Katrina wasn't there to play about with. After all he was the man of the place and he wanted everything to be just right. He had decided that he was going to tell her how he felt when she got back... he didn't think it was fair to keep traveling with her if she didn't know and he didn't think he could continue to keep lying to her never mind himself. He had to say something.
"Ok I'll see you later... no slacking right... You better have tea ready for me when I get back" she joked. With that she left and he started straight away at tidying up.
Katrina walked away from the den and as she did she hummed a tune, then she stopped 'whoa' she thought 'why am I humming a song...? I don't hum'. She continued walking and never thought another thing about it as she was walking she heard a sound behind her.
"That you Mickey?" but there was no sound so she continued walking 'if its is you can catch up I aint waiting for you' she thought. But it wasn't Mickey...
With that someone pounced on her, bearing full weight onto her back forcing her to the ground... to hard to be Mickey and to rough but due to the weight she couldn't turn to face whoever it was all she could see was a dark black paws holding her to the ground firm. They were strong looking but dirty.
"Keep still and I won't hurt you" the voice said - it was a deep hard voice. Nothing she had heard before but something that will never leave her mind again.
"Please, I don't have anything, please don't hurt me" Katrina begged as she cried.
A paw went behind her neck holding her firmly to the floor as the other moved down to her side, pushing under her towards her breast; harshly it gripped at her right breast pushing into her. She could hear deep breathing with the breath going into her ear.
"You have everything I am looking for" he said gripping harder and squeezing her nipple.
"I, I don't understand?" but with that she started to guess exactly what this brute was after especially as she felt something digging behind her. She felt his weight shift as if to get into position and with that she felt hem enter her in a way no one had done before. He pushed his furhood into her and thrust it hard against her body. A sharp pain ripped through her body from her sex up and made her yelp. With that he pushed her face into the ground continuing to thrust himself in and out of her, then he leaned down and bite into her neck drawing slight blood as he lifted up. His thrust got faster and deeper, harder and hurt more with every thrust.
"Please" she begged but he bit her harder. Then he gripped her breast so hard that she screamed so he bit her neck again. "Shut it or I'll kill you" he breathed into her ear.
A few moments passed and Katrina just laid there. She didn't want to but she knew she had to, she didn't want this but she didn't want to die either. She wished Mickey was there he, would know what to do, he would save her.
With that 'the brute' as she couldn't give him a name, thrust harder than ever and squeezed as hard as he could moaned a deep harsh moan and then crouched up still holding her to the ground. "Stay there and don't look up or I will kill you. I'll be watching you and I'll be near you always, your mine now." He stood and Katrina did exactly as she was told. There was no way she could look at him. She couldn't she was so scared she couldn't move even if she wanted. He got up and run off. Katrina laid there for about ten minutes before standing and crying. She then ran on all fours as fast as she could back to Mickey and the den.
Back at the den Mickey had been tidying up, making the place as close to a home as possible. He had laid some leaves at the back of the den to make a bedding type of area. He had moved all the mess from the rest of the area and made it spick and span. He had even got some rabbits already caught and put in the coldest area of the den keeping them nice and cool ready to eat when Katrina got back. 'Look Katrina I have to say something to you, I think I love you' he thought to himself. 'that wont work, I cant say it like that she will run a mile' he thought again 'Kat I, we have known each other for a while now and well I think I like you a lot... but I don't think.. Well I think I would like to get to know you more...' god what am I going to say to her I can't think.
But he didn't have time to make his mind up as just as he turned he saw her running fast towards her crying.
"Kat what's the matter? What's happened? Are you ok?" but he didn't get an answer she just ran past him into the back or the den and cowered up to herself not letting any space to hit any part of her body.
"Kat? Kat? Please tell me what's up?" he went to touch her but as soon as he did she moved away from him as if she was scared of his touch. "What happerned Kat? What I do?"
"Nothing" she whimpered "I just...." She couldn't say it but Mickey could see the bite marks on her neck, then he guessed, "My god Kat who did this?"
"I never saw, he was behind me. I didn't see him at all; all I could hear was that voice 'Keep still and I won't hurt you' it rang through her mind again.
Mickey slowly leaned ext to her...not over her to try and cuddle her slowly he managed to cuddle her and held her whilst she cried and cried. Finally she fell asleep in his arms.
