Cassie glared, her fingers tightening around a branch and snapping it.
Why are they here? What are they standing around for?
It had been a an hour and yet still these four people sat, hunched over in careful planning. She wondered briefly if they were here for her. She'd been here, what? Six months now? If they were here for her, wouldn't they have come a long time ago?
She carefully shifted her position, and the leaves, too soft to crunch, instead slid under her shoes. She grit her teeth at the idea of the white soles of her Converse are getting dirty, but at least she managed to catch herself.
Taking a controlled breath, she faced the strange people again. Her heart faltered. One of them was looking at her. No wait- they weren't looking at her. They were looking at something behind her.
"Hey, look! Over in the bushes!"
Cassie twisted her head to see what caught their attention. A flash of red flies by her just as she did. She smells smoke and sees a small flame born on the side of a tree.
"Careless creature."
The humans, in pursuit, didn't even notice her nestled in the bush. Cassie doubted they'd see her even if she tagged along. A small smirk grew on the side of her face.
They never noticed her following them.
