Spot the Difference

[fate]

A shiny and sleek Russian blue figure padded up right along the oceans edge. Today she was just Anastasia, a 'dancer with a weak immune system', on her day off, or more so 'healthy' again. The pub owner she covered under kept her secrets under lock and key and she was grateful. What she-cat could lead a band of pirates as a tom and cover as a weak dancer at a pub? Oh right, She could~ Ana smirked to herself. She stopped briefly as a gust of wind tore through the beach and she stretched, the beach hadn't changed one bit since her four month leave. Even on windy days the beach was as captivating as ever. Much had changed to her here since she had left to plunder and go on adventures with her human companion, who was, coincidentally also a Captain, but some things had also stayed the same, and she was glad of it, especially when her silver eyes caught sight of her usually perch, which always seemed to withstand the storms.

She didn't even hesitate as she walked right into the water, even snickering as the cold water rose on her and a shiver tickled her spin. How she loved to swim, as do most pirate cats. It didn't take long for the water to be deep enough for her to swim, all her time in the water paying off as she paddled strongly through the water before reaching her rock perch and pulling herself on. Fur now plastered against her body, not making too much of a difference in her size except for her tail and neck regions, which were now defined thanks to the water, at least until she stood there on all fours to shake some of the water off, causing her fur to spike. The smile had never left her face though as she made her way up the tall jutting rock formation and sat at the top, her ears listening for sounds of ambush but her eyes staring at the ocean, already longing for another adventure.

She was facing a large tree, about three or four metres away and in her forepaw was her dagger which had been cleaned very recently only to be known because of a cloth on the ground next to the she-cat was covered with blood. Around the gray and white she-cat was a small patch of grass where the tree grew, but surrounding the grass was lukewarm sand, which seemed to be lapped up by gentle waves of the ocean. After a moment's hestation and concentration, Emerilla threw the dagger at the tree's trunk, but before it hit the tree, she sped forward, snatched it from the air and then with a mighty swipe with the arm, sliced the trunk. She then held her pose, staring that the five centimetre deep cut in the tree before grunting with triumph. "Perfect hit, Emerilla!" She praised herself. Then she plucked the dagger from the tree and then carefully slipped it into it's holder on her forearm. Then she ran towards the water to stare at the sea beyond. But it was not all ocean she could see, she saw a rock jutting out from the rippling sea. But not only that, she could swear she saw a cat clambering up to the top.

Ana's ears perked more as she heard steps coming towards her, and in a quick manner. She sighed and stood up and dove off the rock, landing cleanly in the water and was able to swim all the back to shore under water until she had to stand up to walk the rest of the way in. As she looked at the new cat she could tell it was a she-cat, most likely in with the thugs by the looks of it, but she had no bones to pick with them. She seemed a little less interested now that she knew it wasn't a fellow pirate with news of some sort, she could really go for guard teasing right about now, but once again, she was just Ana today. <b> " I don't think I've ever seen you before, a name would be nice" </b> she purred in welcoming to the she-cat.

She hadn't even bothered to shake off the water dripping off her pelt as she made a little circle around Em to get a better view of the she-cat. She looked like she could be the stealthy type but Ana hoped that if she were a thug she was more stealthy on the job then she was running through the sand just moments ago.

[atrb=background,http://fc03.deviantart.net/fs71/f/2012/153/b/3/emerillamiddle_by_jayflop-d51zb7t.png] Emerilla blinked at the blue gray she-cat. She could feel her own muscles tense, but then she loosed up and replied, "Emerilla. Now tht I've introduced myself, tell me your name." She replied, her forepaw out, gesturing for a pawshake. Atleast be cival for this once. She told herself. Maybe it could have a different outcome. Emerilla's midnight blue eyes looked into the blue she-cat's eyes and she continued to have her paw out. (Sorry it's short, i've got to head out to school.)

[atrb=background,http://img137.imageshack.us/img137/4078/forumanamid.png] Ana's tail twitched in amusement at Emerilla's sharp tongue after providing her name but she paid no mind to it " Anastasia. But I prefer Ana, Anastasia is such a fairy tale name. " she giggled, shaking her paw off a bit before grabbing Em's hand firmly and shaking, knowing some cat's didn't enjoy the water like she did. " You've got some pretty eyes, goes well with your pelt, kinda reminds me of Taboo's eyes, but Taboo has more of a crystal lake shade of eyes. " she half babbled to herself as she turned around to head off in the direction of the human world before turning around to look at Em again " I could use a snack, how bout you? " she purred kindly, not one for making enemies right off the bat.

[atrb=background,http://fc03.deviantart.net/fs71/f/2012/153/b/3/emerillamiddle_by_jayflop-d51zb7t.png] Though curious as to who Taboo was, Emerilla decided to not question Anastasia about him. But as the blue she-cat meantioned food, Emerilla's stomach gave a loud groan of protest. She hadn't eaten for days because she had no time to go hunting recently. "My stomach has certainly decided." She replied with a weak smile. This she-cat was very curious. Liked water, very giggley and certainly didn't care what Emerilla could be, like others would. Emerilla let go of Ana's paw and then looked at the calm ocean beyond. It was a very calm day. But that could change, Emerilla told herself as she took a small whiff of the air and could scent rain.

[atrb=background,http://img137.imageshack.us/img137/4078/forumanamid.png] Ana snickered again at the sound of Emerilla's stomach " Well then! I guess we better get some food quick! Can't have your stomach wail in pain any longer! So, you decide, what's on your menu today? Steak? A certain pie on your mind? or how bout a shishkabob? " She purred, now on all fours to trot a little faster towards the entrance to the human kingdom above, any of the food she listed making her maw water, if it were shishkabobs that Em decided, today's special would be chicken and pork, delicious. Ana always made sure to get the best food and knew where all the killer taverns and stalls were and also made sure to ONLY steal from the humans, never cats, unless it was from the rich who had an ABUNDANCE of jewels and gems, just a couple, to increase her own treasure trove.

[atrb=background,http://fc03.deviantart.net/fs71/f/2012/153/b/3/emerillamiddle_by_jayflop-d51zb7t.png] Following Anastasia with a fast pace, Emerilla shrugged. "You choose. I'm not too picky." She decided. She knew where they were headed. To Rithengar, the human worold above. She'd been sent up there many times to complete a job. Most times she never came out alive because the humans were so savage towards her. Not unexpected, her being a stray cat and all. She looked at Ana with curiousity. What did she do for a living? She looked like the type who is graceful, and would dance for money. Maybe that was it. Was this cheerful character a dancer? Emerilla shrugged the thought off her shoulders and then looked in front. The entrence to Rithengar loomed nearer.
