Golden eyes peered into the dark ally way, as the young orange tabby male watched curiously at the humans that passed by. Other cats roamed the area as well. ‘What am I doing here?’ Lion wondered to himself pacing back and forth at the ally entrance. Light and dark flashed in his eyes, making them dilate like crazy. The light from outside, and the darkness from the ally. He had to stop and close his eyes, the sudden changes in light where starting to give him a headache. But, why was he here? What did he think he’d gain by running off on his own and here of all places? He’d never really been off by himself away from his family. However, he felt the strong need to well explore on his own and go some searching.
There was one problem however.
‘What am I searching for?’ He questioned himself again, staring hard at a silver can. His face twisted up and he grunted. Why did this bother him so much? If he knew this little journey would lead to such frustration he wouldn’t have gone to begin with! However, at the thought of being by himself, without his brother or sisters. Without his mom and Ash. His heart raced, pounding quickly in his chest, pumping adrenaline in his system, making him feel restless. He felt jittery again, he started to pace, but this time, paced inside the ally. Where the light was much dimmer. He needed to move and get the adrenaline out of his system.
His breath came out in short quick puffs. Eventually his labored breathing slowed and became normal. Once normal again, he sat, and decided to groom his fur while he pondered. ‘I left because I wanted to explore… So, what did I want to gain from this exploration? Just to see what everything looked like? Meet other cats? That would be nice.’ He thought, the only cats he knew where his family. Minus Ash, well he was sort of family, being his mom’s mate and all, but definitely not his father. His father…
Settler, Lion wanted to meet his father. Learn about him, and why him and mom weren’t together. He wanted his father to be well a father to him. He liked Ash and all but he couldn’t help but feel sour towards him, he wasn’t his real father. And Lion wasn’t going to sit back and let him pretend that he was their father. He wasn’t sure what happened between the three, his mom, father and Ash but he knew his mother and father loved each other or they would not have mated. Right?
His nose twitched, and he stopped licking his fur. Deep in through, his gold eyes stared off into space, staring at the silvery can in front of him once more. That was before his thoughts where interrupted by the low grumble of his stomach. He blinked and looked around, making sure no one heard that. He chuckled sheepishly to himself, before trotting up to the can. He sniffed it once, then twice and hoped onto the silvery can, sliding the lid off some, making sure it did not fall and make a loud noise. He rummaged through the trash looking for something decent to eat.
