"Come on Katt!"

"I'm coming.." she responded with a quiet groan as she followed after Isabella who was dressed up in a long flowing gown and some earthy things, claiming herself mother nature.

Kids were running around dressed in various things but two seemed to be sticking with her. The little boy she had came to know as Michael and a little girl known as Tabitha. There was a series of clicks in her ears as she walked, the sound distant and unfamiliar. It was echoed by a soft chime from the gold bell that hugged the dip of her collarbone. A leather, front and back tailed outfit hugged her far too nicely and showed a little more cleavage then she was use to flaunting.

Isabella swore up and down she looked great but she felt out of place in the outfit. Her nose had been painted black with 'whiskers' painted along her cheeks. Several people had asked her to 'meow' already. It was sort of funny and it was fun to watch how excited all the kids were getting. They needed something happy in their life after the orphanage had been destroyed.

Isabella lead them to a bench where Katt collapsed blissfully onto it's cold surface. Michael suddenly released her fingers and she looked off after him until he disappeared behind her. Since Corey and Isabella were nearby she didn't have to watch him so closely.

"So Katt. Has your fever gone down?" Corey asked nervously. She had no clue why he seemed to be so fidgety when it came to speaking with her. From giving her a guarded eye to being like a nervous little boy. Go figure.

She shrugged to the question. "Not really..but it hasn't gotten worse either.."

"It will break soon." Isabella chimed in happily and scooping Tabitha from Katt's arms. She was relieved and she shook out her bare arms.

"I guess.." Katt murmured softly.

Isabella frowned a little but she quietly giggled soon after. Katt raised a brow but found out soon why..

"Ah!"

Tiny hands tugged at one of the feline ears that were nearly hidden away among her hair. Blinking she peered over and shyly Michael retrieved his hand. He meeped and ran over to Isabella, hiding behind her. Peeking around to Katt he just sort of watched her. He was given a confused look and he smiled rather cutely in her direction. "Pwetty ears" Then without warning scampered off to join Corey and some of the other kids.

Both Isabella and Katt blinked after the boy in surprise.

"He.." Katt started and her eyes turned up to Isabella.

"...talked..." Isabella finished, sharing the shock.

They smiled at each other as Katt rose to her feet. That was a good sign. Maybe the boy was finally starting to recover.

"Well that was a mighty nice treat for a fine afternoon of candy hording." Isabella laughed as she started to walk after the children.

Katt followed with a little smile. "Yeah.."
