I have learned hate. I have been waiting for the
chance to escape, to track you as you once
tracked me, to destroy you.
I am sorry for the pain I have caused you. Now
that we know what you are, amends can be made.
The sun of my world has since gone nova. The
world and all others of my kind are no more.
How can you restore it to me?
I cannot.
Cat slammed against the field and sparks
outlined his entire figure. Billy did not move.
After a time, Cat drew back, shaking himself.
He seemed smaller now, and his body coiled
around and around upon itself, sinking into the
ground.
Finally, I will help you - for a price, Cat said.
And what is that price?
Your life.
