“Yeow,” said Beast. “His claws are sharp.”

He climbed down with it.

Emily grabbed for the cat.

So did Dawn.

“Wait,” said Beast. “Choose for him.”

“I'm not choosing,” said Dawn.

“Me neither,” said Emily.

“Want to make a bet?” asked Beast.

“He's really mine,” said Dawn. “He slept with me last night.”

“What bet?” Emily asked.

Beast looked up in the air. “Whoever gets the most fish keeps him.”

Stacy frowned. “Emily's not such a hot reader.”

“All right,” said Dawn. “I'll bet.”

“I am so a hot reader,” said Emily. “I'll bet too.”

“Cross your heart?” Dawn said. “Hope to die?”

“Spit on my toes,” Emily said.

Beast put the cat down.

Emily reached for it.

So did Dawn.

Dawn scooped it up. “I'll keep him for now. He likes it at my house.”

Emily stood there for another minute.

She wanted to grab the cat.

She put her nose up in the air. “Mongoose.”

“What's that?” Dawn asked.

“Come on,” Emily told Stacy. “I'm going home to read.”
