Chapter 3 - runaway

I took some ideas from the book im reading called The Subtle Knive.
I found it interesting and decided to make up a story of my own.

Chapter 3 - runaway

Chapter 3 - runaway
"You tried to murder me!"
She screamed.
I could only look at her,wide eyed.
The queen clenched her hands tighter,and when she did so it was harder for me to breath.
About to faint,i looked at Steven,where was the man?
Steven was running...towards me?
I finally saw the man,who shot the queen with his rifle.
Her grasp loosened until she finally let go.
I fell to the gorund hard and screeched in pain.
I heard the queens cries as she vanished in thin air.
Steven got to his knees and tried to wake me up.
But i fainted a second later.
Slowly i woke up,mustve ben nighttime.
'Why does this happen to me?'i thought angrily.
'I hate when i faint..'
"finally,your up."
I saw on the other side of a flickering fire,Steven.
"Where is the man?"
"Went to get more firewood."
"oh ok"
I lay back again,glad she was gone.
But i knew in my heart the queen would be back..
I remembered my demon right then and i franticly looked for her.
"There you are.."
I said gladly.
"Hm..i have to name you..."
The demon looked up to me with huge eyes and smiled.
"Better be good."She joked.
"How about...."
"JELLY!"
"Steven,i will not name her jelly!"
"why not its a cute name!"
"yea for a squirrel!"
He backed down and looked away.
"How about...chaton"
"chaton??"
"yes chaton.it means "kitten" in French.."
"Rightt.."
said steven,mockingly.
"you are so strange lyra.."
I smiled as if it were a compliment.
I got up,and walked to Steven.
"Thank you steven"
I hugged him tightly.
He blushed hard.
I smiled and got back to my spot next to the fire.
Chaton looked at me,now a leapord.
"What will we do now?"she asked.
"We will find my father..."
Suddenly i heard something in the woods.
A stick breaking.
'Must be that man.'
'yea maybe..'
I gasped.
'you can read my thoughts chaton?'
'of course i can!'
'oh heh well...'
'I AM a part of you remember?'
'yea...'
The rustle in the leaves beyond the campsite made me jump.
I looked around and spotted the man.
I sighed with relief as i went to help him with firewood.
"Why do you think my mother is still alive?"
"Im not sure...but her powers were too strong, even for yours."
I looked at him suspicously.
I never told him or Steven about my powers..
I figured he must have used his forbidden instrument,the clock, to find it out.
That is probably the reason its forbiden here,it could tell anything about anyone,as long as the person who holds it can read its mysterious symbols..
When me and the man finally reached the campsite,i found Steven lying down on the ground.
I made a bed out of leaves and woke him up.
"Sleep there."
I pointed to where he must sleep.
He sleepily walked towards it and collapsed on it.
'Hm must be comfy..'
'Or maybe hes tires,Lyra..'
I glared at Chaton and she quickly fell asleep.
I decided to talk to the man.
"Please,tell me your name."
"I told you,my name is not important.."
"But i must know it or what am i supposed to call you?man?"
"Fine then..."
"My name is..."
He was interupted by sirens in the distance.
"NO!"I screamed.
That woke up Steven right away.
Confuzed and dazed he looked up at me.
I clasped my hands on my mouth.
"Nevermind.."I said.
"Just go to bed,man."
He laughed and told me his name.
"Just call me Jason."
"ok"
"Night lyra,Jaon."
"Night Jason.Steven"
I pretended to sleep until i heard them snoring.
I got up and put on my other clothes,which where dirty.
But it didnt matter.
I picked up Chaton and moved quickly,but quietly,away from Steven and Jason.
