--Like Nothin' I've Ever Known--

[Splashy]

Leah looked at the park and smiled lightly. It wasn't to full, so they still had room to talk without anyone being very close to them. "The park looks nice." Leah told him. She hadn't been to the park but once or twice and it had chanced a bit since the last time she was there.

[neverendingacres]

''It is isn't it.'' Ty said, half absent mindedly. She glazed around them as they walked down a path which cut through the middle of the park. ''Want to go see the ducks on the little lake or want to go sit on a bench somewhere?'' he asked her.

[Splashy]

Leah turned to him and let out a light smile while saying, "I think we should go to the lake." Eyes wandered to the lake where many duks swam. "Oh, and thank you for taking me." She said, her smile wider.

[neverendingacres]

''Ok'' He said before turning to face her, ''No worries.'' A small smile slowly came to his face as he looked at her. He stayed like that for a few seconds before turning back to looking where he was gong and taking a path that led to the lake.

[Splashy]

Leah continued to follow him, thinking about the things that had happened in her past; her mothers death, her fathers death, and having to pay the bills for the house that she was running out of money to pay for. She smiled lightly, though there was alot that was troubling her, but she didn't want anyone else to have to worry for her.

Some joggers came running towards them, ans Leah didn't seem to notice. On instinct Ty wrapped his arms round her and pulled her out of the way, ''Look out.'' Bad move. As they landed on the floor there was a 'poof' and he turned into his zodiac. A cat.

[Splashy]

"Thanks for saving me Ty." The girl smiled then looked around realizing Ty was gone. "Ty? Tyyyyyy...?" She moved around to find him, but alas Ty was no where in sight. Wondering if he had ran off some where, she noticed a cat at her feet, she smiles and rubbed the orange cat. "Awwww what a cute kitty!" Leah exclaimed.

[neverendingacres]

Ty looked up to her and gave a short pur. He walked over to his clothes and pawed at them, trying to tell her what had happened, not knowing if she could possibly guess by this simple action.

[Splashy]

Leah continued to stroke the cat untill she noticed what he was pawwing at. Ty's clothes where on the ground... Did he strip and run? The thought worried her deeply.

[neverendingacres]

Ty didn't like to use his voice. Even though he was in cat form he could still speak. He gave a deep sigh and looked up at Leah. ''I'm here. I'm Ty.''

[Splashy]

"Ty? Ty, where?" Leah looked around, not noticing the voice had come from the cat that was at her feet. Later she sighed and gave up, not seeing him.

[neverendingacres]

Ty jumped into Leah's lap and stood up, resting his front paws on her chest. He looked up at her face as she spoke. ''Here.''

[Splashy]

Leah stared at the cat infront of her, it was talking, yes talking. "Tyyyyy.... Why are you a cat?" She stared and waited for an answer, the shock had not hit her yet. Leah was a bit slow in the brain, it took her longer to realize that was not normal.

[neverendingacres]

''Can't talk here. Let's go back to yours.'' He replied. ''Oh, and can you carry me back please. I'l explain everything when we get indoors.'' He gave a small sigh.

[Splashy]

"Ok." She said and stood up with the cat in her arms. Leah started to walk, and then it hit her, the cat was talking and it said it was Ty. She jolted, and dropped the cat with suprise.
