As Shina was about to ask the tall lady what had happened to the dragon again, Lapoo came flying from her tree, berries hitting her in the face and landing shakily on her shoulders again. She gave a frightened squeak and hid behind Shina's hair. 

As Lapoo flew, something else came crashing out of the tree and landing on the ground, startling them all. In front of them was a black cat, another one that wanted Lapoo for lunch again Shina supposed. It happened often, after all Lapoo was the equivalent of a dog chasing a squirrel.  

[color=green] 'Whoah!' [/color] Shina bent down to the cat's level - as she did she felt Lapoo fly from her shoulder and back towards the workshop. Probably for the best, she thought. 

[color=green] 'Hey there, you gave us quite the fright. You don't look hurt but try not to eat my little pal OK' [/color] Shina let out a loud laugh, you know the full from the bottom of your stomach laugh, it had been such a crazy day so far, she couldn't imagine what else was in store. 

Now Shina wasn't one to pay attention to the animals that inhabited their town, there were so many that it was of no consequence if another appeared, but she felt she would have seen a cat as onyx black as this one. It looked healthy so it must have an owner somewhere.
