Friends- Chapter two

           


Chapter 2
Chyta has some uninvited party guests



Cake splattered all over Chyta's face.
 Belize just sat there, looking stunned.
Thessper slunk out of sight, hissing.
Laying in front of them, in the now spoiled cake, lay two flying lionesses, rather similar to Chyta.

The first was a cream color, the other was a sky-blue color.
The cream colored one had glasses, and the blue one had a leather pouch covered with beads.  Chyta supposed that she had decorated it herself.   The beads were the same color as a flower right after a rainstorm: beautiful.
The cream colored flying lioness groaned because her glasses were covered with coconut frosting, and the blue one licked the cake off of her own face, laughing.
Belize recovered from her shock.  She usually let Chyta and Thessper do the talking, but when she was angry, her tiger temper got the better of her.
"NOW LOOK WHAT YOU DID!" she roared, while the lionesses cringed at this unexpected turn of events.
"Calm down, Belize," soothed Chyta.  "Your yelling is waking up the whole forest!  It's Saturday, you know, and the monkeys especially like to sleep in."
Sure enough,  monkeys began angrily poking weary heads out of the forest, and the snakes and even other tigers got up to see what all the commotion was about.
"Go back to bed, it'sssss nothing," Thessper assured them.
"Alright, now about you two troublemakers," Chyta said, turning to the flying lionesses.  She folded her arms, and said, trying to control her temper, in a quavery voice: "Explain yourselves."
"We-ll-l," began the cream colored one, "We were lost, because Thinacy here" (she gestured at the blue one with dislike) "tried to teleport us to food, and we ran into those  helicopters up there" (she pointed to the sky where three helicopters were flying) "or, rather, they ran into us, so Thinacy tried again, and we landed splat! in your birthday cake- wait, how old are you?" she asked.
"Well then, if you must know, I'm now 152," grumbled Chyta.
Thinacy's mouth dropped open.
"What's your name?" the cream one asked.
"Chyta," Chyta said.  "Yours?"
"Kimcy," offered the cream colored one.
"Sorry we spoiled your cake," said Thinacy.  "It looks... delicious!"  She hovered over the mess of cake.
"We'll be going now," Kimcy said firmly.  She grabbed Thinacy's paw and flew upwards.
Bong!!
She fell back down.
"Sorry, Kimcy," she said, full of uncontrollable laughter,"but this island is surrounded by a barrier!"            "Isn't there some sort of spell that can get us out of here?"  Thinacy complained.
Chyta thought awhile.  I do know a simple spell, she thought.  She may take it literally, though.  She may be offended, said the negative voice in her head.  She shook it.
"Yes," she grinned finally, "but I need three to do it."
"Okay," Kimcy grumbled eventually.
"First, we close our eyes and imagine," said Chyta, "A simple symbol.  Got it?"  They nodded.
"Alright, now we all have to draw our symbols in the dirt. Ready? Set? Go."
She drew a star.  Kimcy drew a diamond, and Thinacy drew a heart.
"Now we close our eyes again.  Focus on your symbol, while I say the spell,"  Chyta said finally.

She cleared her throat and said: "GET US OUT OF HERE!"
They found themselves above the island.  But they looked at their tails, and there, instead of a tassel, was their symbol.
" 'Get us out of here?' "  Kimcy was puzzled.
"Look, I didn't make it up!"  Said Chyta.  But her words were cut off short as she suddenly stared behind an astonished Thinacy, looking pale.  "Look out, Thinacy!"
