“Hmmm...” Tina thought for a moment, “There is a black alley cat that has been trying to steal my garbage for quite some time. You may possess her.”
“Where shall this cat be found?” the naga servent inquired.
“I will catch her tonight,” Tina answers, looking outside, “Which shouldn’y be long.”
Already the moon was rising. Dark, forbidding clouds covered the last of the setting sun, as dusk fell into evening.
Tina and the servent waited.
Finally Tina asked, “Tell me, what is your name, naga?”
“I do not have a name,” she answered, “What do you wish to call me?”
“Since, I first summed you when the sun was beginning the sink, I name you, Dusk.” Tina decided.
Dusk was easy to remember, and did make sense.
At that moment, both hear a trash-can fall over.
“She’s here,” Tina said, “Follow me.”
The naga simply nodded, and continued slithering after Tina.
A jet black shadow crossed their path.
The cat was starring at them.
Quickly, Tina chanted a spell.
Instantly an air made cage fell upon the poor kitty, trapping it.
*Mrowwww!! Meorrrrrrrw?!* the cat cried.
“Got her!” Tina shouted, “Now let’s get her back to my tower.” ...
A few minutes later, they arrived.
The naga placed her hands on the cat.
Slowly she sank right into the animal, until the only who stood there, was the cat herself!
“Impressive.” Tina mused.
The cat lifted its head,
“I can do much to aid you, but be warned, I must never see daylight for I will whither away into dust.”
Tina gave a nod, and went back to studying the book.
