Shadowpaw was finally let out of the den into the back area outside, but it was closed off so he couldn't escape. The place was small, but it will have to do he guessed, since he will never be able to return home.
Then a chuckle came from behind him, and he spun to face a smoky gray she-cat; about ten moons older than him. She had darker spots around her eyes, and stripes on her tail.
"Greetings kittypet." The she-cat meowed.
Shadowpaw noticed that she had no collar. But she wore no scent of a clan cat. "Who are you?"
The she-cat fixated her strange violet eyes on him. "My name's moon," She responded after a moment's hesitation, "what's yours?"
Shadowpaw thought for a moment. "It's shadow." He responded.
"Strange name for a kittypet, how'd you get it?"
"I was never born as a kittypet, I was born to a loner family, but the twolegs captured me." He mostly lied on that, yes he wasn't born a kittypet, yes the twolegs captured him. But he was born to a clan, not a loner family.
Moon looked him over before turning around. "I'd better be heading back now."
Shadowpaw stepped forward. "Will I see you again?"
Moon returned her gaze to him. "I promise you will." She meowed.
She then disappeared over the stone wall.
Something about that she-cat made shadowpaw's fur tingle with a strange feeling.
