It's dark, on the dock (Open)

[Oliver]

A dark shadow loomed over the docks, followed by a cool breeze. Causing notihng more but a slight spray from the water. The dark waves broke against the worn down docks. The wooden platforms creaked from age. Docked boats rocked side to site. Coulds, black with rain, slowly sneaking up on the dock. The water started to cash violently. A shadow, sitting on one of the posts, stepped down from higher ground. Pausing only to watch the vioence of the water. Seeming displeased it walked on. Toward a small boat, rocking to and fro. The shadow jumped into it, dissapearing from veiw only to pop back out just as quick and silently as before. This time it was a bit misshapen. The shadow of a mouse could be seen. Its throat lacerated. The ominous shadow sat down as the clouds began to roar in defiance. From one moment the mouse as there, and the next it wasn't. Only it's small white bones where left. A light nearby flickered on exposing the shadow for what it really was. A cat. Black and white in color. Slender, and well kept. No collar ment no warm home to spend it's nights in. Striving to live life, but the difficult way. Living a lonely life.

I padded along the dock. I came here to think sometimes when too much was happening back home. But.. I had this eerie feeling this time... like I shouldn'tve come... like somethign dnagerous was here. But I shoved that feeling away, although my hairs were all bristled and my eyes were wide and scoping for anything. I jumped as I thought Isaw something.. jump in and out of a boat... but I couldnt' be sure before my paws shot me further ways away from it...

[Oliver]

Movement caught his gray, seemingly lifeless, eyes. He turned his head slightly. Questioning his own sanity. "Hello?"

[/b] He spoke calmly in order not to scare whatever it was away. He could fight if it was threatening, so he had no worries. "WHo is there?" He called out. He sat down in a non threatening way. Running into quite a few cats in his day he learned the hard way what threatening postures looked like. "I mean no harm to you,"[/b] He called out once more. Maybe he was going crazy. Oh well, if it really is nothing then it wouldn't matter. It's not like anyone would have heard him. He looked around cautiously. hearing only the violent crash of the waves. Would something really wander out here in the beggining of a strom? He did, but he had no where else to go. [/font][/left]

I froze as it spoke. I seemed to have gone closer to it and was right beside it, entombed in shadows. I spoke, my voice cold and harsh as hail. "Who are you?" I would never give up my identity to a stranger unlike some of my fmaily. Ihad brains despite hjow I acted sometimes.. lost... but only becauseI was thinking to myself. I couldn't control what happened ot me when I got sucked into my thoughts. I shook my head,a bell wringing as I did to stop my thoughts. My owners, to keep track of me, for I was always hidden despite my fur colour, had put a collar on me with a bell that'd ring everytime I moved, basically. Once that thought was finished I froze... He could hear the bell nad my voice... he could find where I am in no time... my tjhoughts betrayed me, as I quietly, without movcing hte bell, backed up nad moved stealthily to the otherside of him, the area wasn't large.. but i hid me jsut fine besides my cold brave eyes.

[Oliver]

Ears up listening to any sounds. With great accuracy he can pinpoint the percise spot thany sound would come from. He sat in the darkness. Finally , 'Who are you?' He stayed still. Letting it seem like he couldn't tell where the voice came from. "You don't want to answer first? Ok, my name is Oliver."

[/b] He stayed nearly motionless. Moving only "Your turn, Who are you?"[/b] He turned his head slightly in the direction of the other. His calm voice blended in with the raging waves. He listened to the silence. Feeling the cold wind blow through his fur.

I tried to remain silent. But it was difficult, by nature I was prone to answering thins whether I wanted to or not, adn especially in this vulnerable state I was at the moment, it was even more difficult to keep myself silent. I tried to stomp the the growl buidlign in my throat. I felt the storm in my sdpine, but I couldn't go home until I found my father. but this tom was reather intreiguing despite myself. He seemed so calm.. and brave enough to speak his name without knowing to whom. My eyes glinting gold in the faint ilght showing in the shadows. There appeared to be a movement behind them. My tail flicking, long and warningly in and out of the shadow. It exposed my colouring, the brown tip and the golden lengths, the browner designs tainting the gold. I moved forward slightly, so my muzzle was visably, my nose the colour of a soft rose. My irises narrowed. My white muzzle appeared greym adn wet, in dirt and mud. "Odd name... Oliver" I growled in an odd purr.

[Oliver]

He looked around. Stopping his green gaze at the shadow of the other cat. "Your lack of a name seems to be more ood to me."

[/b] He said as calm as ever. "It is different I guess."[/b] Glancing at the crashing waves. "You shouldn't be out when a storm is coming, you know."[/b] He said changing the subject a bit. Tail twitching a bit at the crash of another wave.[/blockquote][/font][/left]

OOC: Sorry I can't be on this late so I ran out of time to post more.

I snorted. "I have a name and I'm not a mouse-brained stray like yourself" I growled. accidentally stepping out entirely. In the pale light, my golden pelt shined a bronze. My white belly fur was long, but it was unnoticeable, for I kept it flat agaisnt me. I tilted my head. "And if it's not smart then why are you out here in this wheather?" I queried. My soft pink nose twitching as it sniffed his scent over the taste of fish and water.
