Macavity’s Reasoning
Dem put the dressing on her wound. " All right. You may turn around now." she said looking at him. Macavity slowly turned. He brushed his fur from his face and stared at nothing for a moment. "Is some one coming?" she asked filled with hope. Macavity shook his head. "I don't know. The only cat I want is Munkustrap." Dem eyes widened. " Munk.. why?" she asked hoping that it wasn't true. Macavity snarled. "He's the one who made me into an outlaw. He ruined me! I'm gonna repay him for that." Dem did her best to sit up against a rock. "It’s your own fault if you hadn't broken the law and continued to break it he wouldn't have banished you from the town!!" she stated. Macavity hissed. "He had no right! I should have been the sheriff, and he had no right to take that away from me!" His tail twitched angrily. Dem looked away her tail also twitching. "You will never be half the sheriff Munksutrap is... even if you do get away with this plan the townspeople will never let you be sheriff.. so you mind as well forget about it!!" She smirked to herself. Macavity smiled, his long fangs glinting. "Oh, I don't plan on becoming sheriff now, Miss Demeter. Not at all. I know no one will accept me. But that doesn't mean I can't kill Munkustrap and take what I want." Dem's mouth dropped open. " NO... you can't kill him please... you just can't." Her face winched with pain. "I can, and I will," Macavity said, his eyes clouding in anger. Dem saw the anger growing in her eyes and she thought it best not to cross the line. "Your right!! Munk is no match for you." Macavity looked at her. "That was a quick side change." Dem looked at him with narrow eyes. "Well it’s not exactly like I'm in any position to argue, now is it?" She pointed to the gun shot wound. Macavity shook his head. "No, you're not. But I could have hurt you a lot worse," he said. He pointed to her chest, where her heart was. "One shot there, and you woulda been dead." Dem let out a little gasp. "Oh... well I'm glad you didn't shot me there." she said looking at were her heart would be. Macavity smiled a bit. "Then I wouldn't have anything to barter Munkustrap with, would I?" Dem thought for a moment. " What about....ummm...Horses..you could become a ranch owner and trade in horses.?!" she said hoping he would think about it. Macavity shook his head. "I get all my horses by stealing them, and I like it." Dem looked at him. " Oh..well I guess that would make sense..you are an outlaw....." Macavity nodded. "Yeah, I am." Dem sat in silence. " Why not just leave..there has to be more out there for a cleaver outlaw like you...and besides murder is so messy." | |
