Tail of two cats
In the darkness of night two life
forms were created. These beasts were born from the shadows and were created
through their own sheer will. They were born because they willed themselves to
be so. They started very small. The Shadow beasts looked like a small adorable
ball of dark fur. One of the creatures was dark black with only the slightest
of white markings. The other was black with other dark colors mixed in.
Into the night the creatures
walked, their slow pace and tiny frame giving the illusion of innocence. These
creatures were in fact adorable, but the mischief and evil intent could be seen
in clearly in their bright yellow eyes.
The tiny
beasts stalked the streets. They lived and thrived in the human world. These
creatures weren’t friends nor were they enemies. They both preferred being
dominate but respected the others strength enough to work together for a time.
during one of their nightly walks in the town, humans came and caught the black
and brown create and took her away. Being so small at the time, there was
nothing either of these shadowy female creatures could do.
A year
passed and the blackest of the two continued to live on the streets. She
traveled among the local street cats for company and occasionally changed her
form to look like them. One day a human truck rolled up and two humans got out.
They had thick leather gloves and a cage. They came to wrangle the stray cats
in the area. The darkest of shadow beasts had warmed up to the cats that kept
her company. So as the humans approached. The beast charged forward as the
alley cats slipped out behind a house.
A struggle
ensued, but the beast still wasn’t big enough to fight. So she inevitably lost
and was thrown in the cage.
The shadow
beast woke up and was in a larger cage, in a building. Dogs, cats and other
animals surrounded her. She was in an animal shelter. She roared in protest,
but sadly she had spent too much time with cats and was still very small, so
her roar was more of an adorable “mew”. This prompted a kindly human to come by
and bring food.
It might have been
confined but this wasn’t so bad having free food and a safe place to sleep.
Then one
day a family arrived to adopt a cat. The shadowy monster did her best to look
like a cat. She was smart enough to know this ‘adoption’ thing was her way out.
Then once she was ‘adopted’ she could escape and travel back to her street.
From there
she was ‘adopted’ and taken to the human home. She was given the name “Gali”
and was treated very nicely. After some time had passed Gali had become used to
the perks of being a house cat. She just had to keep her form stable and
catlike. She would get massages, food, water and comfortable things to sleep
on. Life was bliss.
As the years went on, she stayed in cat form for so long,
she forgot how to change back to her neutral form. The only thing that changed
was her eye color. Since color wasn’t a physical thing and she couldn’t reach
the mirror, her eyes would change from bright yellow to bright green and
anything in between. This changed happened depending on her mood. The humans
never were suspicious but they were aware of it. Luckily humans are dumb and
don’t believe that some cats and animals are actually shadow creatures brought
into this world through sheer force of will.
