She stared up into the dull stars, which would later be bright and radiant in the dark night. The sun was beginning to disappear behind the skin colored water, spreading pink orange purple glow across the bottom of the sky. She sighed, and sat up, curling her hind legs to her chest, wrapping her arms around them tightly. It was a gorgeous evening, it reminded her of when her mother and her used to walk on the beach, and watch the sun set as they walked. Now she had no one to share that with anymore. She found liquid dripping from her eyes, and she sniffed, digging her face into her arm.

He was whiter than the snow that fell each from the forest up above, which made it obvious for others to see him during these times of day. Luckily the beach was empty, or rather from what he could see with the setting lights impairing his vision. The tom sighed in awe before he took of in a brisk trot, picking up sand in tiny archs as he ran. The breeze of the ocean, the mist laced across his face helped to relieve him of all his problems back at the palace, and for once he could relax. "It's oyster hunting time" he smirked but it slowly faded when his ruby gaze caught sight of a feline figure almost crippled by saddness. It was all in her posture, the way her back arched in a slump. He thought for a moment whether to approach. How many times had he needed someone and was simply ignored or passed over. Squatting beside her, arms resting on his knees he spoke soothingly, a worried questioning expression on his maw. "You don't have to suffer alone....is everything alright?". This wasn't like the tom, to bluntly intrude but he felt the need to this time. (( hope you don't mind I pop in ^^))

[atrb=background,http://i1138.photobucket.com/albums/n533/KitsaniCat/Kovumiddle.png] Kovu padded along Jasper beach. The tom loved the feeling of sand under his paws. The dark siamese's eye's scanned along the shoreline the sky stained by the setting sun. It was one of the tom's favorite time of day. He also enjoyed it when the moon hung silently over the sky casting long shadows and turning his pelt into a light silver but for now he remained a dark grey the only silver on him being his markings markings. The dancer's deep and dark blue eye's catching on a she-cat sitting alone. The she-cat before him had her face burried in her arms and she seemed to be crying. Kovu's heart went out to her. The tom had stopped walking as he debated what his next move should be. Shaking out his pelt before he continued the tom plopped himself beside the she-cat. Not saying a word just sitting beside her.

Then on the other side of her, a grayish tom, with blue eyes, and a dark cloak. At first she was startled, then quickly, she whipped her eyes and spoke "U-uh, suffering? Who is suffering? Hehheh" She tried to lie, and get past both strangers. concerning tone. "I-I'm fine. I just like to be here at this time- I guess." She mewed, a quivery edge still in her voice. She couldn't easily hide her sorrow, since she honestly didn't expect anyone to be on the beach at this time. She looked away from both toms, kind of nervous in the white one's presence, like somehow, he was important. They gray one on the other hand, he just had a warm kind of stare in his eyes.

[atrb=background,http://img580.imageshack.us/img580/8494/havenpostingimagemid.png] The she-cat looked up at him, her eyes slightly puffy from her time alone. Before she decided to stumble for a reason to steer the tom away Haven caught sight of another tom who had taken a seat merely a few lengths away from him and the saddened she-cat. With a furrowed brow he kept a weary eye on the tom before steering his focus back to the cat right next to him. He couldn't help but chuckle light heartedly at her feeble attempts to hide tear stained cheeks. "Well...it is a nice time to come out, maybe reflect, mourn for those lost" he smiled before moving closer and taking a seat beside her. Sticking out his paw toward her with a smile he decided to introduce himself, "Call me Snow, and you are?"

[atrb=background,http://fc08.deviantart.net/fs71/f/2012/189/4/0/ptmiddle_by_themoonfur-d56gfpa.png] Emmeline felt the sand beneath her shift slightly as the white tom- who had revealed himself as Snow, got closer, extending a paw. She looked up at him again, And for some reason, his voice- his kindness, reminded her of- she pushed the thought away, and smiled the best-just-stopped-crying-but-is-trying-to-hide-it-smile. "Nice to meet you, Snow. I'm Emmeline- but you can call me Emm- for short if you want." She finished. She suddenly recognized the cat slightly, he had been in the first battle round as well, and had been fighting a cat with a blue scarf. Though he hadn't made it to the next one, she could remember standing near him, as they waited to be escorted into the arena. At least he wasn't a complete stranger though. She was still so cautious of random cats coming up to her. Might as well try to get to know some people. She thought, and shook his paw with a slight manly squeeze.

[atrb=background,http://i1138.photobucket.com/albums/n533/KitsaniCat/Kovumiddle.png] While the othe cat's talked the dark tom remained quiet only ever giving a polite and warm smile to the other cats. He had recognised them both from somewhere he couldn't quiet put his paw on it but it didn't bother him enough to ask. The tom's reasoning for staying quiet remained unknown even to Kovu. He just felt that the albino tom was better at comforting cat's than he was. Anyway's his mother had always taught him to not speak until spoken too though usualy in this sort of situation he wouldn't shut up around these two cat's felt different. Keeping a closed mouth Kovu observed the two cat's shake hands. 'So' He thought to himself. 'Snow, and Emmeline. Interesting enough.' The grey tom rolled his shoulder moving his dark gaze away from the other cat's and towards the ocean wich was still stained with the colour's of sunset.

[atrb=background,http://img580.imageshack.us/img580/8494/havenpostingimagemid.png] "Ah, Emmiline, beautiful name. I also like Emm so ill go with that" the tom smiled after removing his paw from her grasp. She had the quite the strong grip which made Haven smile. Perhaps the she-cat felt the need to prove her toughness, he didn't know. She was quite young, at least he figured she was a lot younger then himself, her face still had a soft edge to it, eyes wide with wonder and a fresh sadness. Haven turned away to gather a look at the sea. For a moment of silence the albino tabby sat there, taking in air flow, wave rise, all the things he had taught himself to look for before going for a swim. He finally decided to break said silence; however, and lean forward a bit to see past the little she-cat towards the male just beyond her. Emm didn't seem to know him or else she would have introduced him. What a strange fellow, to sit so close and say nothing. Haven understood not all cats were as amiable as himself, he had his bad days of course, but a smile wouldn't hurt...would it? "And your name is?, I'm sure you heard ours" he questioned with a curious grin. By the looks of the dark tom he could tell he was listening, probably gathering information as himself and the she-cat, Emm, spoke. Well it was time to join the conversation right.

[atrb=background,http://fc08.deviantart.net/fs71/f/2012/189/4/0/ptmiddle_by_themoonfur-d56gfpa.png] "Thanks." The she-cat mewed, in response to Snow's compliment. She watched him turn and look to the orangy water slowly coming closer to were they were standing each time it came in. The tom seemed nice, honestly, she hadn't met a mean cat yet. Still, she was always taught to be cautious- since the time that her parents got mugged by a couple of thieves. Her dad had fought them off, but still, they came close to hurting him. From that day a common saying in their family was "Don't trust strangers". Emmeline was probably old enough to defend herself in a situation like that, but still she always had a hint of fear. Teaching herself to be fearless took time, but it worked, and she liked the idea of becoming intimidating. Snapping out of her thoughts, she heard Snow speak again- this time to the gray tom on the other side of her. She had nearly forgotten him. He had sat down next to her and said nothing- awkward. But at least some how, it seemed he cared. Emmeline turned to the albino tom again, "Do you know him?" She wandered, hoping the tom wasn't expecting her to know him.

[atrb=background,http://i1138.photobucket.com/albums/n533/KitsaniCat/Kovumiddle.png] The grey and silver tom bobbed his head back and forth to the music that played inside his head. The tom has managed to play out an entire dance in his head as he listened to the other cat's talk. Only ever sneaking a quick glance out of the corner of his deep blue eye's. Noticing the albino lean past the she-cat who had been reffered to as Emm or Emmeline. The siamese tom took notice of the albino's red eyes as he turned his head to look at the tom who had addressed him. "My name is Kovu" The tom meowed with a slight nod as he returned the grin. "No he doesn't know me Emmeline." He said answering the she-cat's quesion then speaking again. "I take it that we are three stangers then." The dark tom flicked one of his silver ears back. "So what do you two do for a living?" He asked with a catiouse glance at either of the cat's. He knew that sometimes jobs were a touchy subject so he answer his own question. "I am a dancer." He meowed smoothly his deep blue eye's focusing on the albino before going to glance at the she-cat.
