Once, there was a kind woman named Sarah, actually, heh, my aunt Sarah if you will, she was a wonderful aunt, whenever I came over to visit her, she would be so kind to me, including feeding me, having fun talks with me, and on rare occasions drive me around town, she still does all these things with me to this very day, yet something disturbed me the day I found her cat, jingles was missing.

Sarah never complained about it, she actually acted more happy then usual, I asked her where jingles was, she just smiled to me and changed the subject by telling me to go and clean off the porch for her, I just smiled and agreed, still wondering why she had denied my question, but I shrugged it off, I did have a paranoid problem anyways, so I just got the broom and left.

As the day went on, I noticed that jingles never came back from where Sarah had claimed jingles to had gone, paranoid as usual I walked into Sarahs house and sat on the couch, silenced by the fact that sweet little jingles had never returned, so I turned to Sarah again and asked her as to where jingles had gone, this had made my millionth time asking her, and she told me that jingles ran off, but that made no sense to me, jingles wouldn't have just ran off for no reason, so I got up and ran outside she asked where I was going and I said that I was going to look for jingles, and Sarah just stood at the back porch, watching me with a blank expression, and I just turned and left, angry for whatever she had done to him. I was hiking in the mountains until I came across the old abandoned mine shaft that was in the mountains, I moved the weeds and whatever other debris was in the way, and went into the mine shaft.

It was surprisingly large, filled with old mine carts, rails the carts rolled on, and even old lanterns, I also seen carts filled with coal, all piled up as if they were there on purpose, I shivered, then grabbed one of the lanterns after my flashlight started flickering, I growled and tried the lantern, it worked by my surprise, and lit up more of the mine shaft then any other flashlight would, so I progressed onward until I seen three tunnels, and the rail I was following branched off into those tunnels, so with some thought I went into the tunnel on the right, feeling a cold wind coming from it.

As I continued onward into the right tunnel it seemed almost as if the darkness was consuming the light from the lantern, I tried my flashlight again but with no luck it did not come on, I growled again in aggravation and felt around my pockets, I smiled when I found some batteries in my back pocket, feeling like an idiot for not noticing them before, I set the lantern down on a rock and used the batteries, and with much luck it worked, and after I turned on my flashlight the lantern faded until the lantern quit working, I smiled and progressed downward, as I went downward into the tunnel I felt the icy wind hit me again, I heard what appeared to me a cat moaning in pain, JINGLES!, I yelled, then I began running toward the sound, but after some time I went into what appeared a huge room, I did not hear jingles anymore and sighed as I went to look for some sort of other light, until I noticed a breaker and pulled the lever, it did not budge, but after countless minutes of pulling the lever flipped and the breaker made a loud humming sound as old lights came on and lit up the entire room, the room was in fact a cave, but the lights were dim so I did not see much detail of the room.

But then I felt the cold wind hit my back, and I felt a presence from behind me, I turned around and saw, Jingles! I motioned for jingles to come to me, but he did not move, did not even blink, he just sat like any cat would and was thumping his long tail on the rock ground of the cave, it sounded like it was ticking the way the cave echoed, tick, tick, tick.

He then stopped, as did the ticking sound, and what I seen next terrified me, jingles smiled at me and spoke, "YOU ARE ABANDONED" jingles said in a terrifying cat-like voice, then jingles jumped on a mine cart that was sitting in the cave, and said to me "SHE MEANT FOR YOU TO COME INTO THE MINES, SO SHE COULD ABANDON YOU AS WELL, WITH ME FOR ALL ETERNITY" then I began to cry, the jingles got down from the mine cart and sat on my shoulder, and said "ABANDONED ME AND NOW YOU".

Then I threw him off of my shoulder, and ran, jingles then hissed at me and began running after me, I eventually got out, but as I looked back at the mine entrance, I seen a pair of glowing red irises, watching me in silence, I then found a large rock and covered the entrance of the mine, along with the debris that covered the entrance to begin with, and promised myself to never go into that mine ever again, but when I got back to Sarahs house, she looked at me and said "told you he ran away" she said, but I knew what had happened, she abandoned him on purpose, and I see why she did.
