Brown eyes flitted cautiously about as the earth resettled around her. Piper jumped when her oven buzzed. Pressing a hand to her heart, she reassured herself that the tremors had just been another earthquake, but when she turned after taking her cookies out, Piper screamed.

The cookies hit the floor. Her mouth hung open. She quivered from head to foot. Blindly reaching for the nearest weapon, Piper clutched a cast-iron skillet and headed for her door. What did you do, she wondered, eyeing the massive spaceship in her backyard, to keep an alien out of your home?

She froze when she saw the spaceship's door open and a being emerge. Heat flushed her for before her stood seven feet of rippling, black-furred, and completely naked muscle. The alien was half man and half cat! Piper's heart beat wildly as he turned in her direction and their eyes locked. {{{Greetings, Earthling,}}} she heard a smooth voice say in her head. {{{I am Cole.}}}

She dropped the frying pan and continued to stare in shock as the catman walked toward her, his tail and sword swaying proudly. Somehow, in that moment, looking at Cole, Piper knew her whole world had changed forevermore.
