Leo got up and left the room after she spoke. "Sleep well, my love." He closed the door and went back to the table. He sat down, but he no longer felt hungry.

Will watched everything, but something was bugging him. "Leo? She is stronger than just a fox demon. Her presence just now was insane. I mean to say that her powers are through the roof, and if headquarters sends someone else here, then we will have even more issues." He had stopped eating as well.

"En. I know this. If I had my way, I would send her to my place already, but I can't control her life. She is free to do as she pleases." Leo sighs. "She is a lot stronger than I originally thought as well. I am only just learning of her heritage. She is my girlfriend and the mother of our baby that is still growing inside her belly. It's less than three months until the baby is due, so I hope that in that time, I can learn everything, so I can adequately be of use to her." He had his left hand resting on his forehead with his eyes closed. 'Please don't let them come before I can get her to leave.'

"Leo, you are the strongest hunter. Knowledge may be powerful but don't lose yourself in your research, my friend. I am here for the two of you when you need my help." Will looked at Leo and patted his shoulder.

"Thanks, Will." He opened his eyes and looked at his comrade. "Has there been any new information sent to you?"

Will got up. "Let me go back to my room and grab my laptop. I'll be right back. I'll text you when I get back so that I don't wake up Kitty." Will left the room quietly.

Leo got up and went into the bedroom. He walked over to the bed and watched Kitty sleeping. 'I wish I could be the one to take in all your pain and suffering. So that you can relax and be free.' He leans over and kisses her on the forehead, then sneaks back out of the room out of fear that he may wake her. He looks at his phone and waits for the message from Will telling him that he outside the room.

Will walked down to his room and quickly retrieved the work laptop. Then went back to the room; he pulled out his phone and texted Leo. ~Hey, I'm back.~ He heard the door open, and he went into the room. The two walked to the couch, and Will set up the laptop on top of the coffee table. He sat down while it booted up. "Has she awoken yet?"

Leo followed Will back to the couch. "No, not yet." Leo shook his head as he replied to Will. "I imagine that she'll be awake soon, though. She didn't get to eat yet. So, for now, let's go over the information that you have acquired and when she wakes up, we can give her an update on the information that we have found out."

The laptop login screen was blinking. Will nodded at Leo and logged into the computer. "Leo, there is a new email." He quickly opens the email.

Leo leans forward and reads as Will scrolls through the email. "Looks like some more hunters will be showing up in four days. I think we should be able to get everyone moved out of here before then. We'll need to see what Kitty says about it."

Both of them were engrossed in the emails that neither one of them noticed that Kitty had gotten up. She opened the door and went over to the table. "You two." She says and points at the two of them, then back down to their unfinished food. "You need to finish eating. I can't have you guys running on no food." She pulls out her food and sits down.

"Pfffffft." Will can no longer contain his laughter. "The second she gets up, she starts scolding us, Leo." Will pats his friend on the shoulder. 'Oh man, he is in for a rough time. I get the feeling that is really what he needs in life.' He got up and went back to his spot at the table.

Leo glared at his friend but got up after him, sat down, and continued eating his food. "There was a new email. There will be more hunters here in four days. So we may need to hasten the plans a little bit."

Kitty listens. "I was thinking I should be moved tomorrow along with all the books. Leo, you will need to drive me to your place and come back here before they arrive. They know that you are on vacation and that your destination was here, so you have to be here when they arrive. All I request is that you come with me and help pack the books. You and I will go to my home, and Will can stay at the hotel."

"I have to send in some reports to head office, so it would be best if I stayed back." Will finishes eating. He gets up and goes to the coffee table, and packs up the laptop. "I will leave you two to do what you need to, and I will be in my room, so just call if you need anything." Saying his peace, he left the room before anyone could object.

Leo watches Will leave and shakes his head. "I will go with you. I don't want you to lift anything heavy. Is there a vehicle that we can use to transport everything we need to my place?"

"We have emergency vehicles that are meant for this kind of thing. Thankfully the windows are tainted as well, so I won't have to be transformed. There are going to be people who won't leave, but I understand that. We should head to the house now." She transforms back to a human look just in case she is spotted by a human. "I am weak right now, but we still need to be careful." She got up slowly and walked to the door.

"Let me put your shoes on for you, Dear." He got up and put her shoes on for her. "I can drive, and you can direct me on where to go." Leo grabbed the car keys. He takes her hand and leads her to her car. He opens the door for her and closes it when she gets in.

Kitty smiles brightly at Leo the whole time to the car. She gets in and gives him directions to the house in the forest. The drive was very relaxing. It took about fifteen minutes to get to the cottage. She got out of the car, and she transformed back to her natural fox form. "It's so relaxing here. I wish I could've brought you here under better circumstances." She walked to the front door and unlocked the door. She went inside and went straight for the library.

It is not doing the thing we like to do, but liking the thing we have to do,

that makes life blessed.

-- Goethe

Nothing in this world can take the place of persistence. Talent will not: nothing is more common than unsuccessful men with talent. Genius will not; unrewarded genius is almost a proverb. Education will not: the world is full of educated derelicts. Persistence and determination alone are omnipotent.

--Calvin Coolidge
