*that’s elvish for “until we meet again”.

Oh my, I've been tagged... again. This one was kind of wierd, but still very cool. It's not the old questions and answers tag, but one where you write a story. Writers (like me) will actually enjoy this one.

Rules: every time you are tagged you must type the story on your post and add two lines and tag seven other bloggers. If you choose to end a story, the story must be more than twenty lines long and you must start a new story with two lines and then tag seven people. A story must not exceed fifty lines. Post rules on blog and/or comment of those you tag.

The Story So Far...

One dark and stormy night an old man could be seen creeping down the sidewalk holding a wiggling sack in his arms. The thing in the sack was hissing and managed to tear the sack. Even though the old man was desperately trying to keep holding it, the thing inside leaped out onto the dark street, running straight toward the riverside. The the thing turned around and ate the man. The thing then began to sing "Oh Gravity" to the tune of "Go Tell Aunt Ruth". The thing was actually a ery large cat that loved to eat people... it had eaten two people that day. It then sat down and started licking its paws, after which it began prowling around the riverside, looking for food. Suddenly, the boards underneath it shattered, plunging it into darkness. It was swept into the river and then came up, gasping for air. Coming towards him was a great black something, swimming closer every second. The cat started to swim away and try to get to shore, but the current was pulling him along and the great black thing was coming closer and closer. As he struggled and splashed, he soon found himself coming to a waterfall! Suddenly, there was another one of him. They acted like they knew each other; they were not attacking, but staring, and why, I ask?

The other one of him helped him to shore where he told the evil cat about Jesus. The first cat converted to Christianity and asked the second cat (whose name was Beanbag) to spread the Word of Jesus with him.

My Two Lines:

"Why of course!" said Beanbag, "I'd love to! Let's start now." So Beanbag and the evil cat (now turned good) walked back through the town. But everywhere they turned, people (and other animals) ran away, for fear of the evil cat (who was now turned good).
