Her cat
Phoenix
Puts his ass in my face

I push him away

No! She cries
I want both of you
One on either side

Phoenix meows sadly as he's pushed away. He felt betrayed. He left the room, swaying his fluffy cat tail as he walked. Melanie, her other cat, lays comfortably next to her.

The betrayal stung. As he left, he plotted. Was he more disappointed with her or the other cat? Tough choice, probably both. He strolled into the kitchen and eyed a beloved object on the counter. It didn’t matter what it was. He was ready to take a swing at anything in view like

The cat squint its eyes to the owner. "Don't you dare" the owner replied, the cat swung his paw to the beloved object on the counter, it fell and broke into pieces. "NOOOOO" the owner cried "how dare you, that's why the bee is better than you!"

The bee relished hearing the praise. That night, long after the owner was asleep, she buzzed over the cat, whispering, "I'm the favorite," into the feline's ear. Night after night the bee harassed the cat thusly until the cat, so brokenhearted, ran away from home. No one noticed.

Maria awoke out of a sound sleep with a start; as she tried to work out her unfamiliar surroundings and piece together how she had arrived there, she heard an ominous sound in the distance — a sound she had heard only twice before.

The sound rumbled again. A low, distinct call of a creature so dangerous it had been captured and confined in habitat built especially for it in a remote jungle in Peru. Maria wasn’t even sure exactly where. What idiot built a shelter inside the habitat, and how did she get here?

Maria rose. Blinked. The concrete interior reflected dim moonlight. She began to see the sleeping faces of women just like her. One of them stirred, “oh, you’re awake?” “Yeah… who are you? Do you know where we are?” Maria cautioned. “Ha, don’t you know? We’re food for the beast.”

Alexandria leapt up from the floor "Beast??" Maria said "Yeah, the beast. It takes on the form of a 4-wheeler." Alexandria looked around and saw a 4-wheeler.

"No time like the present!" said Alexandria, bounding toward the 4-wheeler. "You can't!" Maria objected. "Ain't my first rodeo." Alexandria proceeded to tame the beast on every imaginable terrain. When the beast was broken, she put her head on the wheel and slept like a baby.

The forest had one rule: never answer when the trees whispered your name.

So why did you answer? Why did you return the whisper? Do you remember the echo of your own Voice? 

That was days ago. Now you lie back, reclined in the same rocker as yesterday. It’s tattered and your hand glances over the same missing chips of wood in the armrest. 

“Hello..?”

Lionel Ritchie was not handling retirement well. He would just sit in his rocking chair, singing bits of his songs. Sometimes he’d do this all night long. All night.

One night, his wife came over and asked what he was singing. He forgot what he was singing, but he just knew a melody that came to him. "A song about my sensei."

"I've had it," his wife said calmly. She surveyed the room, at the trophies, kitanas, and other martial arts paraphernalia. "You must let this dream go." He kept singing but there was a crack in his voice. He tightened his black belt, and left without finishing the song.
