Sparky, from a hole under the staircase, emerged into the entryway and sniffed. Detecting food in to his left, he scampered away towards the kitchen to grab some food.

Once in the kitchen, he began climbing the fridge with quick hops and attempted to open it. He was met with little success, being so small. Small grunts could be heard from him.

Soon the door opened with Jenny walking in. Thankfully, being a shapeshifter had its perks. Shehad turned into abird and flew home from school, though as with msot other times she'd flown, she crash landed. "God I need to learn to fly beter...."She muttered,rubbing her head,before hanging her bag on a coat hanger. She walked into the living room,relieved. She had two weeks off for thanksgiving break, and for half of it she'd have the house to herself since her mother and younger siblings were out visiting their grandparents, and and Jake having gone on a trip with his girl friend and her family.

Jenny kicked her shoes off and plopped downon thecouch, sighing with relief, un aware of Sparky's presence.

Sparky heard the door open, eyes widening. He slide off the refrigerator and down to the floor before peering into the living room. Human! Of course... Always something, wasn't there?

With a light clicking of claws, the mouse scampered back to the kitchen and this time to the cabinet, slipping underneath the door. There were more scratching noises as he moved.

Jenny's ear twitched when she suddenly heard noises. She assumed it was one of the multitude of cats in the house, and got up going in to the kitchen. Fortunately for Sparky, Ale, Jenny's cat, was too lazy to try and hunt down a mouse, Molly, JAl's kitten, would have no idea what to do with Sparky, and Trouble, Jaqulynn'scat, never left Jaqulynn's room.

"Molly? You in here?"Jenny asked. From Sparky's hiding place he could see some of Jenny's less than human traits becoming more noticable. Her ears weren't small and rounded, but long and pointed. Her nose was cat-like, as were her eyes. Her hands only had three fingers on them, as opposed to the four humans had. Her leggings covered her feet andhad toes, showing she only had four toes, and soon a long slender tail could be seen, having a tail warmer on it and a pair of rings towards the tip.

The mouse poked his head out from under the door to see the intruder, eyes widening at the sight. Definitely not human, and he didn't like the look of her tail and catlike face. He scrambled back under the cabinet door, quickly climbing the shelves and into a box of cereal. There was a light rustle as he hit the dry food.

In the box, his tiny chest thumped heavily. He was too far from the hole to make a run for it, and he had a feeling she had some animallike abilities that would make his escape even harder.

Jenny looked up at the cabient opening the door to it. She shrugged when she didn't see anything out of the ordinary and closed the door again. She opened the fridge and went to go make something for her to eat, before returning to the living room.

Sparky sighed gratefully and started scaling the box as best he could... That was until he tipped it over. The contents spilled loudly to the floor with Sparky in it, the mouse spilling out from under the cabinet door in a daze. He squeaked, standing and dusting himself off. "Christ..."

Jenny jumped at the sudden noise. She got up and went into the kitchen. "Molly! I swear if you got into the cabinets...."Jenny muttered before seeing the mouse. She glanced at the box of cereal, then Sparky. "Thank god I didn't get cereal to eat."She said.

The mouse looked up at the human, wideeyed. "H-Hello..." He was on all fours, ready to run should the human be hostile at all. "Who're you?" He was shaking a bit, still nervous as glancing down the hall where he would run.

"Uh.... my names Jenny. You?"Jenny asked, nto sure what to make of a speaking mouse. She'd met anthropomorphs before, but even the mice anthro or insect anthros weren't this small.

He stood and crossed his arms and kicked his foot. "Sparky... What are you?" He was indeed an odder sight, being more akin to a tiny digitigrade anthro then a big regular one. It was a lot more dangerous, being his size, but thankfully micros were durable.

"I'm an Elf. Never seen one before?"Jenny replied.

He shook his head. "Nuh-uh. You're not like any I've seen before..." He sat down and started nibbling on a marshmallow from the cereal. "Sorry... Wanted to steal some of your sweets." He figured the truth would be the best way not to die. "... You don't have any cats, do you?"

Jenny nodded. She folded her arms across her chest. "Why are you in my house?"She asked.

He stood and started picking up more marshmallows to nibble on. "I wanted some sweets, and you guys have a huge house... I figured you wouldn't mind if a few went missing." He looked up at her with big eyes, ears lowered. "Can I have these? They taste good."

Jenny sighed. "I guess."She replied. She really didn't know what to do. She certainly didn't want a stranger hanging out in her house. "Just stay out of my room."She said, going back into the living room.

Sparky nodded, beaming. "Thank you!" He swept the rest of the cereal into it's box and set it upright, leaving it for someone to put in the cabinet. Once that was done, he wandered into the living room looking for the friendly elf.

(If you give a mouse a cookie...

I'm not sure where to take it from here. Most times he's chased out by a dog or something. )

Oop: I'm not too sure either any plot ideas by chance?


Jenny was sitting on the couch, eating her food.

(Getting chased is always fun. X3 The Willows are magical, right? Maybe something supernatural pops up and Sparky gets to join in on it?)

The mouse crawled onto the couch with a little bit of effort, sitting down and eating his marshmallows. He was amazed she was allowing a mouse to roam about.

Oop: Well what would happen? There aren't really roaving monsters that run around and eat people in the world the Willow's live in.


Jenny was watching some movie on the tv
