Before the Dawn (INVITE ONLY)

[Corporate Cannibal]

Ember padded over to his bed and flopped down, snuggling down. The kitten followed him and glared at him. It scratched his nose. Ember barked angrily at the kitten. It cowered and limped to Bill, acting like Ember had attacked it.

"I don't know." Cat shrugged.

[NightFlame22]

"I guess you could stay here if you want..." Friesia suggested. The castle felt empty when nobody was there.

Bill looked at the kitten and gasped. He picked him up, carrying him into the living room where Ember was. "Ember! Why'd you attack this little kitten?"

[Corporate Cannibal]

"I'd like that!" Cat smiled.

"I didn't!" Ember looked up at Bill innocently.

[NightFlame22]

"Okay," Friesia said cheerfully. She began clearing some space for the kittens to play.

Bill looked at the kitten, then back at Ember. "Then why was he hurt when he came into the kitchen...?" He didn't have any edge to his voice, he just wanted to know what happened.

[Corporate Cannibal]

"I didn't do anything to it!" Ember muttered. The kitten shook in Bill's arms and burried it's face in his shirt.

Cat smiled as the kittens jumped on Friesia.

[NightFlame22]

"Ah!" Friesia laughed. "I got glomped!"

"Alright..." Bill said, taking note of the scratches on Ember's nose. He looked down at the kitten and stroked it gently.

[Corporate Cannibal]

Ember turned his back to Bill and the kitten and slumped in his bed. The kitten shook fearfully in Bill's arms.

[NightFlame22]

Bill looked a bit concerned about the kitten. He took it into his bedroom. "There, he's not here anymore."

[Corporate Cannibal]

The kitten looked up at him and curled upto him. Curling up in his lap.

[NightFlame22]

Bill smiled at the kitten and held him, stroking him gently. "So, what's your name little guy?"
