[Neptune]

Neptune padded drowsilly into his twoleg's nest. He scrunched up his nose at the ill-tasting scent and let out a hiss. "Ugh! I don't think I'll ever get used to that smell!" he growled. He sighed and settled himself on a fluffy pillow that sat in the direct line of a sunray. He turned in small circles, getting comforatable, then layed down, stretching his tiny paws. His blunt claws slid carelessly out and he sighed once more; his twoleg had just trimmed them that morning. He carefully sheathed them and winced at the pain in them. "Mouse-brained twoleg.." he cursed. "Can't she do anything right?"

Newly named Snowy, padded along the fences. Not as violent or unhappy as she used to be, but still snappy. It was a beautiful day indeed, the sun warmed her long white fur, while the breeze kept her it cool. She jumped into the forest side, now under the shadow of the forest. Her paw steps were so quiet that not even she could hear them. The silence was deafining in the beginning of her life but now there was no such thing as silence. Snowy could hear everything. The little mice scuffling around the tree roots, the birds flying overhead, even the cat talking to himself in his house. He was somewhat new. Neptune was his name. He didn't seem to enjoy himself so much as a kittypet. An amusing, but silent, purr came from the the white she-cat. She had made it better, ever since Porcelienberry had left. Now though, she spent most of her time outside, enjoying herself. But she couldn't see well, and she had scars... phisicaly and mentaly. Not so trusting now, and not so beautiful. She sighed and sat down, there was no one to talk to... some loners and rouges, but no one... truly.... exciting, or... interesting. Only a few kittypets in the grouping of four or five houses... one of wich she lived in.

[Neptune]

Sighing again, Neptune rested his head gingerly on his paws. He shut his eyes and let his thoughts wonder. He soon found himself crouched underneath a tall, dark pine tree, a squirrel sitting in front of him. His bright yellow eyes stared intently at the squirrel as he wriggled his haunces. Holding his breath, he pounced onto the squirrel and—

He woke up to the loud snap as his housefolk shut the door to her nest. He sighed and opened his eyes to find himself staring into darkness. He yawned and stood up, stretching his stiff limbs. 'I wonder when she'll feed me..' he thought, his stomach yowling with hunger. He jumped off the couch and trotted over to his owner. A loud purr rumbled in his throat as he rubbed up against the female owner's leg. He stopped abruptly when she picked him up and opened the door. Some sort of soft rumble came from her throat as she set him down on the door step.

"What in the world!?" he gasped. He turned and heard the soft click as his owner locked the kitty-door. He let out a growl then sighed. "If that's the way she wants it, fine," he snorted. He stood, stuck his nose in the air, then stalked away from the nest.

The white she-cat stalked a mouse that was scuttling around under an oak tree, chewing on a nut. Keeping her rear end low and aking sure not to step on any twigs. She drew in a silent breath and... "If thats the way she wants it fine!" Snowy flinched at the noise. The mouse heard her and ran away. Sighing, Snowy jumped onto the fence of the newcomers garden. "Hello." she said, somewhat hostile but kind. She didn't want to take any chance of fighting so she stayed on the fence, looking down on the tom. No more fighting, not anymore.

[Neptune]

Neptune looked up as he heard a cat jump onto his fence. "Hello," the fluffy white cat meowed to him. Her voice was friendly, yes, but he detected the bit of hostility. "Hi," he meowed back using the same tone the she-cat had. "You're.. Snowy, right?" His bright yellow eyes stared at the she-cat as he sat down on his rear. His whiskers twitched slightly at the tension in the air as the seconds ticked by.
