I have to go, I’m sorry. I’ll be back in a bit to reply.

I tried to see through the smoke, looking in all directions for the kitten.
“Fire Face!” I called out a bit harshly, as I then remembered, “He eats carrots. I swear he’ll go after one, even if it’s a million miles away.”

Geez. Headache attacks aren’t fun.

“Fair enough.” I said.
I had to think for a moment.
“He likes to hide in boxes and cabinets.” I said, trying to think of where he could be. “He’ll also come to me if I yell ‘danger’, but then he usually spits more fire.”

Sorry if my posts sound weird, I’m a bit distracted.

“Yeah!” I said. “I can carry the cat, he could probably fit in my pocket, even.”
I only had to hope he wouldn’t spew fire everywhere again.

“Hmm.” I said as if I were thinking, though I really had my mind set. “I can go without a hand, I have another one.” I didn’t really mean what I said, but I almost wanted it to catch him off guard so I could keep going.

Stay here?
I had to go help track down Fire Face. It felt wrong not to since it was my fault.
“I’m going to help you.” I called out, standing a bit shakily.
I know I only had one hand, but this whole fire wouldn’t have started had I kept a closer watch on the little creature.
I went to go and follow after Tren, then saying to myself…[Read more]

“He breathes fire, he does it at random.” I said quickly then added in a panick, “He does it unintentionally, he doesn’t know any better yet… and he’s still in there.”

“I-” I raised my not-burnt hand to begin explaining, but then hesitated.
I have to say it…. Fire Face is still running around in there.Â
He could start another round at any moment.
“Um.” I said, my heart began to race a bit.
“My cat… kind of… um…”

Some of the anxiety returned but I didn’t dare show it.
“I don’t know.” I responded. “He ran away.”
I took a deep breath. “Um. So, the fire…” I trailed off. Trying to figure out the right words to explain my pet. I had to face the fact – there were no right words.

“I’m Carrie.” I said, attempting to smile. I was entirely greatful that I was safe, but I hardly ever smiled about anything.
The garden was so beautiful, it seemed the perfect place to escape from chaos. I was wrong to assume the water wouldn’t help, it soothed the pain immensely.
“I could never say thank you enough for getting me out…[Read more] -

I couldn’t help but let out a sigh of relief.
At least he didn’t ask about the cat yet. I thought.
“Yeah, I can walk.” I responded. I wasn’t sure the cold water would help completely, I was almost sure Fire Face injected something into my hand, but cold water was worth a try to avoid questioning.

They’re away from the fire but not outside if I’m understanding correctly.

“My cat…” I replied a bit nervously. I thought that would be the moment I confessed the fire was mainly my fault. As the burning sensation in my hand intensified I thought of all the ways these people were going to kill me for burning down the castle.

Hmm. I say yes. I think that’s a good ideation. But – Carrie doesn’t trust many people and swears she’s never going to have a crush on anyone, so yes! … but good luck. Lol.

I felt something shaking me and heard someone asking me a question.
“I didn’t mean to…” I mumbled with a groan. I opened my eyes to see someone above me, then I realized – they were asking if I was okay.
“Yeah.” I said, shaking my head, then I slowly sat up, coughing then grabbing at my hand due to a sharp pain.
I tried not to make a…[Read more]
