"Now, I have a suggestion," she spoke lightly, almost offering the smallest smirk in attempt to intrigue him again. Although she quickly shut it down, assuming she saw interest in his eyes. "Take me back to camp or I'll start walking in a random direction until I find something or someone," the tone in her voice had dropped into frustration. Jinx wasn't the type to say things she didn't mean. If she said she would just start walking in some random direction, she really would. She personally didn't care where that direction took her or what she'd encounter. Anything to get this feline to cooperate with her, or at least point her in the right direction. She was walking the forest aimlessly before their encounter, so it wouldn't be any different now. |
Augustus knew play was over, but he didn't want to admit it. Jinx was obviously a cat of her word - her frustration and serious nature made that much obvious - even to a rather naive-minded tomcat like Augustus. He threw his head back, releasing a low groan of irritation. He stayed in this position for a few moments, blowing out a large cloud of breath, and then he let his head drop to look back at her. He huffed once more, his eyes narrowed as he stared at her. He moaned once again in disappointment, before shuffling a few steps in the direction of camp. His lanky figure and black pelt resembled a shadow in the dark forest. He looked back at her.
``Fine. But only because your my best friend. I don't want you getting lost or anything,`` Augustus flashed her a wink before he burst out laughing at himself. ``Sorry, that was pathetic. Hey, I'll race you? Ready, set, go!`` His words left his mouth so quickly, there would be no openings left for Jinx to speak. He didn't know if she would follow him; after all, she appeared to despise him, why would she feel the desire to follow him? Oh, right, to get back to camp like she wants. And so she would follow him, he was sure of it. And when she did, he'd beat her to camp. Not only because Augustus owned a structure built for running, but because Jinx didn't know where camp was. You smart fox, you, Augustus mentally complimented himself as he started towards camp.
