IN DARK ALLEYS

An RP for the members of the Fat cat Adoption center: -KLICK-

______________________________

Everytime humans think of wild cats, their thoughts wander to the forests, the endless meadows, the adventures of cats living in a forest. But a cat, able to get used to his environement, doesn't only survive in the wild, this is what Humans seem to have forgotten. What happens with those pets that get lost? Those kittens that are born behind trashcans in dark alleys or the cats that get thrown out in the middle of these giantic cement forests they call citys? This is a story that might sound unique and special, yet is a story like every other and still not. A story about 3 gangs that try to survive in the cold world where the humans seem to rule.

______________________________

Our story starts years ago, when our life wasn't the way it was today, when we weren't kept and treated as pets, toys or even trash. Times where we were gods, the time of our ancestors. Before the spirits of the elements turned away from us and alowed a single cat in every generation to inherit the power of their soul. Yet, as the humans found out that just some of us inherrited this power, they began to notice that they were stronger than us, the cats. They started to build their citys, better houses and tried to get loose from us, who protected them that time.

Yet in their eager they made mistakes, mistakes that would cost lives and trust. Their buildings looked safe and so they thought they could start to chalenge the elements. Building their citys near the Rivers made the cat which inherited the power of water angry and it flooded their citys, killing their poeple and ruining their harvest. When they build their city next to the home of the Cat who inherited the power of Lava and the one of the power of stone, they awoke within their mountains and worked together to get rid of the human pest, bombarding them with rocks and lava.

The cats that had started to live amongst them, got angry at the spirits that killed the humans we swore to protect and we tried to reason with them, trying to get them to calm down, allowing the humans to build up their knowledge and power to survive. Yet our cries and pleads hit on deaf ears and many of us got killed in a war with the spirits. We managed to beat them with the help of the spirits of fire, air and nature, the only spirits left that had stayed loyal at the humans we had to protect, that had not forgotten their dutys.

Most of the spirits left our world after this war, except for those who had been loyal to their dutys, the spirit of Fire, air and nature. Yet they had become unable to stay in their hosts and so we lost our power along with the spirits. They had retreated to watch us for many and many years. And slowly, the humans and their protectors, the cats, forgot about this old legend. More and more humans started treating their protectors like pets and toys or even neglected them completely, making them run away when they could.

It was in that time, that many of us aquired visions of the past. The bloody war of the spirits and cats to protect their humans and the honor they once got from them. Remembering their roots, they started to gather for the call of the spirits, a ritual they had forgotten ages ago. Still unable to believe in the spirits who had sworn to protect them in their dutys a fight started during the meeting that was supposed to bring peace back in the minds of our brothers and sissters.

Many blood spoiled the earth under the eyes of the protecting spirits that night and the spirits yowled in agony. Yeet the raging cats, unable to hear the pain their fight caused their protectors, continued their fight until a single cat rose his voice and it was his cry that stopped the battle around him. The attention of the fighters was shifted on this one cat, the first gang leader, Odin. The fight had made him realize, that what they were doing was not the way it was supposed to be. They should not fight themselves, they should keep togethers, as the children of the spirits they were.

Many cats followed his words, forming a single aliance hidden in the wild, far away from the humans. They followed the rituals of the sspirits, the old storys they started to remember burned deeply within their minds. Until their leader, Odin died of old age, leaving the alliance without a leader. The Spirits, thankfull for his loyal behavior towards them, took his spirit and guided him towards their Eden, a place where his Soul would live until eternity in peace and happiness. Yet, due to the fact that they were bussy with this, they did not notice the agony and jealousy in the hearts of their children in the alliance.

As soon as the Leader had died, another fight started, yet, not a fight over the spirits, but a fight over power. It was then, that the Spirits noticed the mistake they had made. They had never thought about this outcome and started to get anxious. As the battle reached his peaks, the spirit of fire couldn't watch the bloodhsedding anymore and used the power he had gained over the years of rest to transfer his spirit into a cat, a young kitten. His Voice overtowered the noise of the battlefield and attracted the attention of every cat. Caring about their brother, the spirit of Nature and Air followed his example and their spirits inhabited young hosts that stoud around the young kitten.

They decided that one alliance would be to dangerous and devided it in three parts. One Gang would be ruled by the kitten that the spirit of fire inhabited until his spirit would be to weak to guide the young one any further. The spirit of nature and air would do the same with the two other gangs. Their plan worked. Yet beeing appart from eachother didn't do the spirits any good. They had started to come to dislike their differences, letting the feelings their hosts were able to feel take over their souls and taint them. Until they were no longer pure.

Yet, soon the time came in which the spirits lost their powers to stay in their hosts for the second tme. Weakened they tried to retreat back to Eden, yet were unable to do so, due to their tainted souls, making them trapped between this world and their paradise. They started to blame eachother and rose their paws to protect the gang they had protected so far, becoming the gods we look up to. Yet to honor the traditions, they kept their meetings, once every three months. The time of peace and the time where fighting would not be tolerated, a day to honor Odin, who had took the burden upon him of guiding the souls of the dead towards Eden.

A long time has passed since those days and the humans started to steal our territorys, creating a massive city, there where our landonce was. The Land we had devided through 3. Yet, we cats have been able to get used to this environement and still remember our traditions and past. We only had to change it a bit so that it would fit our new lives.

The Gang of Fire

Postby Aesse » Mon Sep 20, 2010 4:12 am

About the Gang
The Gang of Fire lives in an industrial part of the city, full of factories, streets and places where only few humans live. The Gang-quarter, the place where they sleep and live is an old abandoned Factory that isn't in use since tens of years. It has big tons in the middle of a big room where the Leader announces to his gang. The sleep place of the Leader is in the old office of the factory leader. While the medicine cats have a big area around the storage halls to call their owns. The kits are kept in a smaller storage room across the medicine cats area. The Normal cats sleep around the main area on old boxes or in the upper areas above an old stove that is deffect but gives of alot of heat in the winter so that they don't freeze. They have some scarce meadows around abandonned factories and their main prey is a mix out of some birds and especially rats and mice. They are used to the loud noises and the stench around them and know how to cross streets without getting hit. These cats have a rather strong physical strength. Towards others the Gang of fire is a rather harsch gang, that has trouble taking outsiders in their middle. They have a rather neutral relation with the Air Gang due to an old bond between the two gangs but they have a strong dislike for the Gang of Nature who has other believes.

The good times for food in the fire gang are between late spring and early autumn, when the rats and mice multiply fast. But in the time between, late autumn and early spring they have hard times and often go steal nature gangs food or ask air gang for permission to hunt some pidgeons in their territory!

The Gang of Air

Postby Aesse » Mon Sep 20, 2010 4:12 am

About the Gang
The Gang of Air lives in the middle of the big busy city. Thy have shopping districs and Restaurants in their Territory and are able to getgood food the whole year.

The Gang-quarter is an abandoned Mausoleum on an old graveyard in the middle of the city. The place where the leader talks to his gang is a big stone tomb in the middle of the biggest room, surrounded my small rocks and stones that come from a broken ceiling. Most of the cats sit in empty places where once coffins were. The old tombstone in the miiddle of the room is embedded in moon or sulight epending on the time of the day during the hole in the ceiling. The Leaders quarters are at the same time the place where the councils and the leader hold their meetings, it is a small secret passage unknown by humans that leads from a hole in the floor into a fox den. The medicine cats have a room to the left of the main room of the mausoleum. The entry is covered by roots of a tree, due to the fact that this room lies rather deep under the earth but has a flat way to go down to. The kittens are also kept in a secret room, that was build by the humans but long forgotten. a bit before the Med. cat den there is a crack in the wall good hidden by the roots and big enough for a high pregnant she cat to go through. Behind that is an empty smaller room with alot of boxes and empty sargs. The normal cats sleep in a room to the right of the main room that is easily accesable from the main room or in the empty places where the coffins one were. In a case that humans should enter the mausoleum the cats are supposed to hide in the nursery or escape the quarter through an emergency exit that leads through the fox den the leader uses. Instead of going to the left in the big tunnel the path goes to the right and ends at the edges of the graveyard near the fence! These cats have no real food storage and store their food usually in another smaller room in the fox den, also to the right of the leaders quarters.

The Gang of Air is able to feed from restaurant leftovers in trash cans in the summer and from fad lazy pidgeons in the winter, they have no real food scarce except if the pidgeons leave their territory what havvens every now and then. They usually allow the fire and Nature gang to hunt in their territory under the carefull eye of their patrolls when the food in the other territorys is scarce. They have a rather calm temper and are verry agile and quick. They are concidered the gentle gang of the three and get direct support from their spirit compared to the other Gangs who only get passive support! They have a verry stong bond with the spirit of the Air and are gratefull towards her for every bit of luck they get!

But even this clan has a big weakness. Due to the fact that they rais human trashcans the humans often hunt them. They get cought or even killed in the process.

The Gang of Nature

Postby Aesse » Mon Sep 20, 2010 4:13 am

About the Gang
The Gang of Nature lives there where humans live, near their houses and temples, they usually roam the gardens and are concidered to be sly.

Their Gang-quarter is a rather old temple with a big open area with a rain water tank. In the middle of the water tank is a higher big rock from which the leaders hold their speaches towards the Gang. Most of the cats are able to sleep on the main open area due to the fact that the humans know that they are there. Yet when it rains they mostly hide in an old room which has some old carpets all around the floor along with some pillows and are able to keep themselves warm that way. The medicine cats live in a small room to the right of the open area, where the old monks saved their herbs. It has a strong herbal smell and even has some pillows. The Kittens are kept to the left of the open area, in a rather secret basement, which is accesable over low steps so that even kittens can climb them. They are hidden in the old storage room and are protected from the cold. The Leaders each have a small room behind the big rock with some old pillows and a small carpet. The food storage is hidden behind the nursery and is a small room without light or windows. the only way to go through it past the nursery where there always is somebody guarding!

The Gang of Nature gets fed all winter by the humans who visit the temples or humans who see them in the city. these humans are verry open towards the strays and most of them have a small bowl of food outsde of their house almost all the time. They have less untill no rats or mice and almost only live from the food the humans give them during the winter. Yet in the summer the humans almost give the cats nothing, making the gang of the nature unable to take their main food source. They often raid the fire area during this time because they mostly are to proud to ask the air gang for allowance to hunt during the tourism season. Due to human food these cats are often a bit heavier and slower than other cats but they have lots of courage.
