Player's Promise Chapter 4

~~~~~~~~~~~~~
         I don't know how I was able to get to sleep with a bat watching me with his glowy eyes from across the room, but I did.

My eyes snap open at the sound of the shrill alarm clock. I slam my fist down and bring my wrath upon the evil alarm clock.
Mwahaha....

At some point in the night, Sly, that's the nickname I gave Windslicer, had been unvoluntarily and forcibly snuggled beside me and my pile of stuffed animals beside me.

 He watched me as I rushed to get ready for school.

 "I didn't think Humans woke up this early." He says, looking out the window at the starry sky.

"I have to get up early so I won't miss the bus, you're coming too." I say, and motion to the waiting backpack.

"Get in."

he can pose as a stuffed toy, I've been known to bring one once and a while to show my friends, so it's not THAT suspicious. Besides, I don't want this.... thing alone with a government agent across the street, and there's no telling what'd happen if he wasn't in my sights at all times.

"Alright if I call you Sly for short? Windslicer is kinda too long to say." I ask as I grab the now-heavy bag.

"You may Lady Breeze" came the muffled reply. That's going to need some getting used to.

As I walk out the front door, I turn to lock it, and I'm giving Sly some last minute instructions.

"And don't fall out of the bag or I'll be in extremely huge trouble."

"Who are you talking to Ms. Glen?" came a voice.

Ohhhh fudge it all.

I immediately stiffen from hearing the voice, it was Agent Victor.

Shoot, shoot, shoot, shoot, shoot, shoot, shoot.

I manage to push down my rising panic enough to answer him.

"Just my stuffed animal, Sly! Isn't he just the cutest wittle thing you ever saw?"

Ugh.... gag.

"I wanted my friends at school to see him! Anyways gotta go now, bye!"
I rushed to the bus stop before Agent Victor could get a word in edgewise.

"My lady, why were you so shaken by the sight of that man? Were you so worried about my discovery?" Sly asked through the top of the bag."

I jumped maybe ten feet. God I'm so jumpy... I was still used to the bus stop being so quiet, I had forgotten about Sly.

He had poked his head out of the top of the bag, and was looking at me with a quizzical look on his little face.

"Mr. Victor works for some secret government agency, if he finds out I have some..... character from another world they'd take you to who-knows-where to do who-knows-what to you! And It'd be all my fault!" I said, getting all worked up, not to mention I was on the verge of tears.

Sly's face got really serious just then, and he replies in a straight-faced tone that could kill any jokester for a mile around.

"Don't worry Lady Breeze, if that should happen, I'll unleash my magic upon any who wish to challenge me."

Oh yeah..... that'll work.

Seriously what'd I do to get in this predicament?
