Mercy was still sitting under the tree. Night was starting to fall and she was still crying.

"How could that have happened? All I was doing was seeing if he was ok, why didn't I see that coming? My head must be in the clouds! sheesh, that is not a good thing..."

She slowly stood up and began to walk towards the house. All she wanted to do was get to her room without running into anyone, especially Orion. She just couldn't face him at the moment. She entered the kitchen and slowly made her way up the stairs.

"So far, so good," she muttered to herself.

Mercy reached her door and put her hand on the knob and was about to enter when she saw a figure walking towards her.

It was Orion.

"Mercy, we need to talk." He was almost in front of her.

Mercy darted into her room and locked the door.

"Mercy, open up, we have to talk about what happened!" Orion screamed.

"Orion, go away! I'm not talking to you!!!" she screamed back.

Mercy sat on her bed and began to cry again. Orion decide to take matters into in his own hands. He walked down the hall and outside to the tree that was right outside her window. He looked up. "Well here goes nothing."

Orion changed back into his cat form and began to climb the tree.
