Food Thief, PG-13, someone has been stealing food, leading to an argument between the members of the merry band
"Who ate my last piece of rabbit?" Zedd bellowed.
"What are you talking about?" Richard, lying propped on one elbow on his bedroll, shot his grandfather a puzzled look.
"I just went into the woods for a moment and when I came back it was gone!" Zedd showed his empty plate and glared accusingly at Cara.
"I didn't take your food, wizard," Cara snapped, adding maliciously, "if anyone steals food around here, it's you."
Zedd glared at her and then at Kahlan, whose mouth dropped open.
"You can't possibly think I took it?"
"You did say you could eat a horse," Richard teased, earning himself a black look from the Mother Confessor.
"You were the last one over by the fire," Cara told Richard with a grin. Conflict was just so much fun.
"I was not," Richard protested.
During the heated argument that followed, a tiny creature padded out from the bushes and prodded at Kahlan's empty plate.
"Look," Kahlan said, noticing it. "Oh, it's a cute little kitten."
Kahlan stared at it, wide-eyed, as if it were the most wonderful thing she'd ever seen. Richard stared at Kahlan being all wide-eyed as she were the most beautiful thing he'd ever seen. Cara frowned and looked at the wizard, who was clearly still more annoyed at the loss of his food than overjoyed at the cuteness of the kitten.
Kahlan scooped the tiny kitten into her arms and it mewed pathetically. "She must be starving," she said. "Richard, see if I have any dried meat left in my pack."
Richard found a couple of emergency rations, and, to Cara's disgust, pulled the strips into tiny pieces and fed them to the kitten. He and Kahlan were wholly occupied in feeding the kitten while giving it adoringly glances, and, alternately gazing adoringly at each other.
"We should name her," Kahlan said, which Cara knew out right was a bad idea. They couldn't take a kitten with them on the quest and naming it would only let Kahlan get more attached to the creature.
"Shota," Zedd said bad-temperedly. "Looks all adorable, acts all adorable, but will steal the very food from your plate!"
