Welcome to Gaia! ::

Sahra plopped happily into her bean bag chair, watching Yin as she entered her room. She wondered what Yin wanted to do, she wasn't really in a drawing type of mood, but she did want to play.

"Sah, are you going to draw? Or are we going to do something else?" The cat girl kneeled down next to her kitty counter part, smiling in response to her own question.

Sahra shook her head, growling playfully, she pounced Mabyn, plowing her over. "OHHF! What was that for?" She chuckled, knowing what the answer was, she poked at Sahra's sides, causing a screech to arise. "What? Are we a little to on the tickle-ish side?" She grinned.

Adriel stretched out sleepily, she bounced atop Sahra's bed flowery bed, blinking at the sight of rolling person's on the ground. "Mreow?" She mewed in confusion, being greatly startled by the screech.

"A-DEE!" Sahra jumped up happily, running to plow down the young slipper with Yin not to far behind her. " I will get YOU BOTH!" She said, chasing after them, while in a crazed laughing fit.

"Mre--"

*PLOOWWWW*

Asryane panted slightly as she continued to run, her red hair covering her pale face because of the wind blowing it to all sides. Vianca was still a couple of meters away from her and she had to admit that she had trouble chasing after the little creature. Maybe the little slipper was still in her youngest stage, but she could already run as if she had practiced for years. Asryane knew she'd have to keep an eye on her as Vianca had showed herself to be a little trouble-maker. The little slipper just loved to explore new places but she also seemed to have a talent to get herself, and her owner for that matter, in trouble.

The forest had become less thick and it finally ended and Asryane now found herself in a familiar open field. She had been here once before, together with Mew. Asry spotted the slipper in front of the large house and she quickly walked over to her in a fast pace.

"Mrrow!" Vianca looked up at the door excitedly as if she wanted to tell Asryane to open it for her. Vianca had found her way to the house easily as Asryane had took her along last time too. Yes, the slipper had proven to have a quite good memory.

Asryane couldn't help but chuckle before she lifted her hand to knock on the door.

Yin's ear's twitched, "Huh?" She sat up on top of the bed, alert. "Did somene...knock on the door?" "Meow, I didn't hear anything." Adriel seemed to say to Yin, being the only one in the room who could understand her.

Yin, even with knowing she was a tad bit over paranoid, jumped up from the bed. She scooped Sahra into her arms, not worrying about Adriel, since Sahra already had a good hold to her. "Graarrr!" She ran down the stairway and darted to the front door. She swung it open. "Oh, uh, Hi?" She stood looking eye to eye with a woman she had never seen before. "Mehw?..."

Before Asryane could even reply Vianca had already entered the house. Of course in her excitement she hadn't watched out where she was going which caused her to run into a creature much taller than she. Vianca rolled over and landed on her back, meowing wildly. "Greowr!"

Asryane quickly bend down to help Vianca up again before she turned back to the cat girl. She knew that her own darling Vianca would become an anthro like Yin one day and she could hardly wait till the day she'd be able to talk to her companion. "Uhh, I'm so sorry, she can be a little too excited sometimes.." Asryane apologized as she brushed her hair back behind her ears. "Ohh, we just came to visit Mew.. but it seems like she's not there?"

In the meantime Vianca had been looking up curiously at the three others. "Mrow! Mrow!" She jumped up against Yin's leg before purring softly. No, no matter that she had made a fool of herself only a few seconds before, Vianca wasn't one to sit still for more than 5 seconds or feel embarrassed about her own deeds. She was young, curious and playful.

Mabyn blinked, pulling Sahra close, she stared down at the small slipper below her. "Eh?" She said in a confused tone. Her ears and tail twitched, slowly moving her gaze back to look at Asryane. "I see." She replied, "But yes, you are right. She isn't here at the moment." Yin peered out the door into the quickly darkening surroundings of the forest. "But I would think you'd probably want to come in? I think Mew may be a while...but you're welcome to stay, anyways. I promise I don't bite." She laughed softly, not being able to resist making the comment.

Sahra wrapped her small arms tightly around the brown-gold furred being, burying her face in her neck. "Err..." She muttered, peeking out every now and then to eye the unfamiliar visitors.

"MEOW!" Addy had long before jumped out of Sah's arms. She slowly hoped in front of Vianca, and titled her head. "MEHw?"

Asryane eyed the small purple slipper who was already in the house, then chuckled slightly and nodded her head, "Seems like she's already decided that for us." She gave Vianca one last look before she also entered the house. "Thank you for your hospitality and, ohh." The girl smiled slightly at Mabyn's promise not to bite then turned her gaze towards Sahra. "I hope we're not too much of a bother.." She knew Mew had said that they could come to visit anytime they wanted but Asry had always been shy and quite reserved, especially when it came to people she didn't know. Biting her lip softly she held out her hand to Mabyn. "I'm Asryane and the little one overthere is Vianca.."

Vianca noticed Adriel in front of her and she carefully and gently poked her with her nose, wondering how Saki's fur would feel. Curious to all her surroundings she was, ohh she still had so much to learn. "Mehw!" She replied as she nodded her head, taking another hop toward Saki. "Mrow? Mrowmrowmeow?" She began to start up a sort of conversation existing of meowing.

Yin chuckled, watching the slippers, she ran her fingers over Sahra's pale orange hair. "All is good." She nodded with a smile, "It's nice to meet someone. I have to admit I don't get out much." Yin pushed at the door side, moving over to allow a pathway for Asryane to enter. Mabyn could sense that Asryane was somewhat shy, but being the normal curious kitty she was, she had no problems leading the social situation.

Yin looked down at her arms, "I, uh...kind of have no free hands, sorry! But it is VERY nice to meet you Asryane~ My name is Mabyn, but please call me Yin. And this is Sahra." She directed her eyes towards the little cheetah girl in her arms.

A look of surprise came to Sahra's face as they both looked at her, causing her to bury her head back into Mabyn in embarrassment.

"Yeah, she's a bit on the shy-ish side."

"MREOW!" Mewed a small voice angrily, Adriel tackled at Yin's leg, demanding an introduction. "Oh, and this is Adriel."

Addy looked at Vianca, meowing, she plopped in front of her, then hoped to the side, trying to signal a sort of, "COME ON! Let's go somewhere and play!"

"That'd be the same for me..but I've decided that Vianca and Ace need lots of fresh air so I'm trying to go out more often nowadays. I need to get to know more people myself too, actually Mew is about the only one I've really talked to since I've been here." She admitted with a small smile as her eyes darted through the room.

"Ohh, and it's nice to meet you Yin! I think Mew has mentioned you when I met her, at least your name sounds familiar to me. You seem to be living here with a rather large family, huh?" Asryane then turned her gaze back to the cheetah girl and couldn't help but feel a little sorry for her, seeing how shy she was. Asryane smiled warmly at her and gave her a little wave, hoping that'd comfort Sahra a bit.

Vianca watched the other slipper, who had been introduced as Saki with a curious look on her face. She hoped after Adriel, nudging her in the side with her nose playfully, happy to have found a new playmate. "GRAWRL!"

After all this excitement of meeting new friends Vianca suddenly felt her eyes getting heavy. She curled up against her new friend before her eyes fell closed and she was fast asleep.

Asryane herself too felt that she was getting a bit sleepy. Giving Yin and Sahra one last smile she walked over to the couch, where she promptly fell asleep, her head resting on her shoulder.

((See you later Kiri! But you know what this reminds me of? It makes me remember the first time Krista came to Autumn Lines Vet back in the day. <_< XDDD *Shot*))

"Ohh, how odd." Yin mumbled curiously, staring a moment at Asryane, almost shocked. "Well, I guess she was tired." Mabyn sat Sahra down in a chair, and grabbed a blanket off of the back of the couch. She unfolded it, shaking it out, and spread it over her new friend. "Sleep well." She said simple, cocking her head to see the two kittens both curled up asleep. "Indeed."

Sahra whined, attaching onto Yin's leg, she looked up at the cat girl sleepily. "Tired, eh?" She responded. "Well, come on then, we'll go up and go to bed, too." Yin picked Sahra back up, stopping a moment to peer back towards the door. Come home soon, Mew...and hopefully you'll be in one piece. She exited to the left side of the room, running up the stairs. And before she even reached the top, Sahra was fast asleep. "Aww." Yin smiled, debating whether or not she should leave Sah alone, she decided to take her into her own room with her. She opened her door and shut it behind her, lying Sahra on the gold colored sheets, Yin switched the light off. "Good night."

Sahra woke, startled, she jumped up. Where am I...? She thought, head whipping around as locks of pale orange hair flailing about. But then she saw Mabyn. Oh... She yawned and stretched out, wondering where her mommy was, but knowing she hadn't been home yet. It was far to early, and as far as she knew, no one would be awake yet.

She shoved the door open, darting happily down the hallway; she turned to the stairway and skipped down into the living room. "Huh?..." Her eyes locked on the stranger lying on their couch feet away. "Ohh...her..." she mumbled under her breath. Sah wanted no trouble at all, especially not with someone more than two times her size.

"MEW!?" Addy jumped up, looking at Vianca a moment, then looking away, and double taking. "Mew, meh mreow me?"

Winifred slid open the patio door, wings flapping, she entered the large room that was the dining and kitchen area. "Phew..." She mumbled, eyes glowing in the dark like most felines would in the night when reflecting light. "Oh? Sahra?"

Sahra stopped and looked up at Winifred, a few feet above her, she felt like she was looking at a towering something. Like she had to do with Mew when she sat down. "Er...???"

Vianca started to meow even more excitedly when she noticed that Adriel had awoken. "Mehw..merow?" She questioned as she tilted her head to one side and glanced at Adriel, eyes slightly narrowed. Vianca looked up when she saw Sahra entering and she hoped towards her, stopping for a moment and looking back to see if Addy was following. "Mew?" Vianca had a mischievous look on her face.

When all these sounds reached Asryane's ears she sleepily opened her eyes, rubbed them and gazed around in the room with a sheepish smile on her face, "Where am I again?" She asked out loud, her eyes still adjusting to the dark.

"Mehw?" Saki yawned, ending in a soft growl, she looked around the room, wondering what all the commotion was. But then as she skimmed, her eyes locked onto Vianca's, and saw the true devious nature of the slipper kitten. "Mreow..." She shook her head, she didn't want to do anything to Sahra.

Sahra turned on one , a slight embarrassed blush slowly appearing on her cheeks, the soft glow from the moon outside highlighting her cat-like features. She wrapped her spotted and striped tail around her leg nervously. "Eh..."

"Oh? Hello there!" Winifred grinned sweetly at the kittens, and then the same to Asryane. "You are...new here? You're friends of Mew, correct?" Wing beats could be heard echoing through out the room, and slowly, they quickened, and Winifred flew over top of Asryane.

Vianca blinked a couple of times and gave Addy one last nudge. "Mrow?!" She didn't mean to do anything bad to Sahra, she just wanted to get to know the cheetah better and get her to play with them. Vianca was a little trouble-maker, she certainly was, but she'd never ever hurt anyone. "Meow, meow." she tried to explain what she wanted to Addy, then eyed Sahra. "Meow?" She asked her, jumping up and down, unable to calm down.

Asryane gasped when Winifred flew over her and she threw her arms around her knees, looking up with a slightly started expression on her face. "Uhh. Friends of Mew, yeah." She said and her startled look slowly made place for a warm smile.

"Oh dear, I'm sorry, I didn't mean to scare you!" Winifred's wings started to slow, and she slowly sunk downward. She found a comfy perch on the couch back, and lie down a moment to relax. "I am just in for a few minutes. Was wondering what was going on in here."

"Mreow." Addy knew that the other slipper didn't want to hurt Sahra, but she just didn't want to scare her anymore than she already was.

Taking a few paces forward, Sahra came to rest against the back of the couch close to Winifred. She watched Asryane from the edge, not able to look over top, since the couch was taller than she was. Oh how she hated being so short. "Mewh..." She purred softly, tail thwiping from side to side. It was interesting to see this new being here. I wonder what she is supposed to be?...

Asryane shook her head and grinned slightly, "Ohh, don't worry. It's fine. I'm easily startled, that's all." She chuckled a bit then looked at Sahra and watched her tail whipping from side to side, following it closely with her eyes, and somehow it made her kind of sleepy. Asryane quickly looked up again and faced Sahra. "H-hey, you were Sahra, right?" Asryane bit her bottom lip softly again (something she always did when she was thinking) before she mimiced Sahra: "Mewh..." Asryane then smiled at the cheetah, hoping that the sound would make her feel a little more comfortable.

Vianca had turned around to watch Winifred, Asry and Sahra and she also started to make the same sound as her care-taker had done: "Mewh, mewh!"

"Oh my, I forgot about why I came in here. I wanted something to eat. I need to try and get something down Kobane's throat, too...So I must be off to raid the fridge, sorry! It was nice meeting you!" Winifred flapped her wings a few times, shaking her entire body, her ears twitched, and she took to air. "I'll be seeing you!" She said, heading off to find some food.

"Har?" Confused, Addy watched Asry and Vianca mew towards Sah. She looked up to her, wondering what her reaction would be?...

Also feeling much like Adriel, confused, and slightly dazed, she had no clue why these two were mewing at her. She growled softly, a sort of warning, she took a step backward. Her face curled into an innocent, curious sort of look. Eyebrow raised, her tail thwapped the ground even harder.

Asryane gave Winifred a quick wave before she turned to look at the cheetah girl again. "Uhhh.." She sat back down on the cough and shuddered lightly when she heard the sound Sah's tail made when it hit the ground. "Sah-ra? Eh.. " She held out her hand to Sahra, "Friends?" Asryane said after a few moments of silence. The look on her face was a mingle of all sort of emotions. One side she was curious to what Sahra was thinking, other side she felt as if they weren't wanted here.

Vianca decided to leave Sah alone for now, she didn't seem much fun to play with, however Vianca had to admit that that fact only made her more curious to the cheetah. Everyone likes to play.. why doesn't she? She turned back to Addy and hoped towards the kitten, meowing as if she wanted to ask 'how come Sah doesn't want to play with us?'

Sahra stared at the woman, feeling like she had an overload of curiosity that was building up inside. "Mehw." She mewed, plopping down on the floor. She wrapped one arms around Adriel, and reached out slowly and cautiously to pet Vianca. "Mreow." She purred, feeling now these two, despite the weird alien, were no threat to her.

Purring loudly, Addy crawled up into Sah's lap, and became to playing bat at her arm. Sahra giggled, grinning from cheek to cheek.

Vianca reached up a little and so allowed Sah to pet her. She gently pushed her nose against Sah and snuggled up against her warm fur. "Merow!" She meowed softly. Vianca felt that the cheetah finally seemed to relax a little bit more and she grinned at her, still meowing slowly.

Asryane blinked a couple of times, then pulled up her legs and watched the other creatures in silence, wondering whether it was her red hair what scared away the cheetah. Or.. maybe it is the pink shoes.. I know those might seem slightly intimidating to some.. Asryane tilted her head and continued to ponder.

Adriel mewed happily, seeing Sahra was now in a much better mood. She is her priority to bury herself within Sahra's lap, yawning loudly, her eyes slowly started to shut, just about to fall asleep.

Sighing softly, Sahra stroked her companion. With one arm occupied with Adirel, the other soon became busy petting at Vianca. She hadn't really cared much for the two before, but now she felt absolutely no threat. She leaned back against the back of the couch, having slouched down some time ago, she yawned loudly and closed her eyes tightly. Sleep was near.

((Sorry for such shortness, REALLY tired and I cannot think straight. x_x; *Waddles off to bed*))

Mew sighed heavily, it had been a long night, despite it only being about a two mile walk from were she had been; it had seemed so much longer. Along the way Mew had stopped to slumber silently in a moist cave just above a crowding of rocks, maybe that's what made it seem so long. She trudged along, longing for the essence of home, and the warmth of her own bed, instead of some freezing cold ground.

Feet finally setting foot on her front porch, she pulled open the front door, and entered into the living room. "Huh?" Her eyes studied her surroundings, although taking a moment to adjust, she could tell that something seemed a little different. "Yane...?" She mumbled under her breath. I wonder what she's doing here...

Shaking the thoughts off, Mew figured she had just come to visit. I hope everyone was nice to her... A few more steps, and she halted in front of two sleeping kittens, one calico, and one purple. "Adriel and Vianca." She chuckled, "Looks like everyones here."

Slumping as she walked, Sahra had rudely awoken on the floor. Going into the kitchen to find something to eat, she had come to find that she had slept through the whole day, thoughts of becoming like her mother taking over her thoughts. It was sure good that it was a day when she had no school, or else she would have been in a lot of trouble.

Rubbing her eyes, Sah had had no idea where she was going. "Ohf! Wha?..." Hands falling to her side, eyes half closed, she peered up to what stood high above her. "Uhh...Mommy?..." She mumbled, clasping onto Mew's shirt, letting out a large yawn.

"Sahra? Why are you up at this time of night? You should be in bed." Mew swooped the small cheetah girl into her arms. Scooting a few inches over, she plopped down onto one of the living room armchairs, cradling the now sleeping girl.

Koosh sat by a tree. She looked up. There sat Sprocket, calmly licking his paw. She sighed, Sprocket was much too mischievous for his own good. One realization that he couldn't get down from the tree and practically the whole town would hear his cries. She had attempted to climb the tree earlier, but failed miserably. She had never been skilled in the art of climbing.

So there she sat, wondering how in the world she would get Sprocket down and was hit by an apple. Well, first an apple, then an idea. She stood up and looked back at Sprocket one last time before setting off for the house.

At the front door she made a fist. She was a little nervous, very nervous actually. She was never good around strangers, and especially awful about asking favors. Knowing that there was no other way she knocked tentatively on the door, hoping for the best.

"What?" Slightly startled, Mew turned all of her attention to the door. "Who could be here at this time of night...?" Holding the girl in her arms, she rose, trying very hard not to wake her. Slowly strutting to the door, she pulled it open, seeing someone there she had never seen before. "Yes? Can I, er, help you?" She muttered, eyes dazed, but not sleepy. Her tail swished about, ears flopped out in a lazy sort of fashion.

Koosh looked at her feet, she had forgotten what time it was. "I er, um, oh, well." Finally she managed to point to the tree and sputter, "My kitty- cat- is stuck in the er tree. I was wondering if you... had a ladder?" Finally managing to get the words out she waited for a response. As she waited she remembered she had forgotten to introduce herself. "I'm umm Koosh... just Koosh. Sorry I hadn't mentioned earlier."

Mew nodded, "Nice to meet you then, Koosh. If you could give me a moment, I will run and grab one from the barn. But first I must go put my daughter in her bed." Backing away from the door, she opened it wider, signaling she could step in if she'd like to.

Turning around, her feet padded along the wooden floors and she headed towards the stairway. Odd that most of the flooring in her home was wood, but, it was what she was used to. Heading up the almost cramped stairway, she turned to her right and entered through the first door. "Good thing you're tired." She said softly, laying her on her bed, pulling the drawn back covers neatly over top of the cheetah printed girl.

Exiting, she shut the door behind her, being sure not to wake the sleeping beauty behind it. "Sleep well." She mumbled under her breath, tail thwishing about, she headed back down to her new visitor.
