The Breath Of Life novel Chapter 51

I laughed at his big tongue, his tongue tickles me a little. I buried my face in his mane and started crying. I felt his head rubbing me back, trying to comfort me.

The lioness licked my hand, while the clubs were roaring at me, then purring. I pulled back wiping my face clean, I feel like a baby.

"Thank you for calming me down." I put my hand on his nose to hear him talk.

"My child, you are never alone. Me and my family are always with you, in your heart. Your brave, you know what to do when the time comes, sometimes you have to show your pride, like me." His words dug deep within me, my heart warmed because of it.

"Remember, to be who you are. Know matter what happens to me, you are my first choice to protect my family." I hugged him so tight, I thought I could break him, but I knew better.

I said my thanks to him and left his den.

I walked around to find my Tiger friends. I made it to them and opened the door. I slipped in to see the Tiger male rolling in the grass, well almost gone grass now. "Tiger!. How is the family?"

Tiger stopped rolling in the grass and ran to me. Tiger jumped on me and started to lick my face. "Calm down buddy, I missed you too."

He didn't stop, so I let him lick me. After he was satisfied that he licked every part of my face, the female Tigers came out, then ran to me.

They first smelled me, then licked my face. I grabbed both their heads and brung them into a hug.

We talked a little bit, I told them why I haven't been here for awhile. They understood why I haven't seen them. We played a little with one of their toys.

After awhile I said my goodbyes and left.

Remembering that they told me we got new animals, I started looking around. I looked around till I saw a polar bear sitting down on the rock.

I walked up to the cage, I used my power to gets it attention. The polar bear got up and turned to me. I went to it's door and went inside.

"Hello, your new I see. I'm Lightning, you are?" I walked to up to it, and placed my hand on it's nose.

"I'm The Great One, but call me Joe. That's what my family named me when I was little. You are one, like me. Why aren't you in a cage like me?" I patted his head, and sat down next to him.

He sat next to me and we started to tell each others stories. It was about noon when I heard my name called.

I parked in front while the twins were on my right and Elmo, Tim, and Zach were on my left in the same car. We head inside, as we enter a lady came to us, her hair was brown and was pinned back into a bun.

She seated us, but glanced at Zach who was sitting down, calmingly.

She tried to catch his eye while she was taking our orders, but it surprised me when he didn't even looked up when she ask for drinks.

When she left, Tim started to ask, "So, how was your day Light?" I thought about my day, it was nice I guess. "It was good, I guess."

Tim nodded till Mike jumped in. "Why were you in the pol..I mean Joes cage?" I thought about it, when I heard a little girls voice was yelling my name.

I turned to see Lilly with Star and John with each other hands together.

I stood up and crouched down to Lilly's level. "Hey Lilly, how was your day."

She giggled and said, "Well, I went to get ice, but we saw your motorcycle and Tim's truck, and the twins Mustang." I nodded at her. I looked up to see Star smiling at me and ran to me and gave me a hug.
