ORIGIN

The Cat watched Madhukar's actions closely through narrowed eyes. This torbie was older, and larger, and far more powerful than her, but that didn't make her any less stupid. Look at her! Look at that smug little face! That trail of stupid magic-sparkle-things trailing up her shoulder!

Ah, but she was speaking now. A black paw curled, flexing claws in and out, as she listened. Wh.. what did she mean by 'What's the other even for?'?! For her, obviously! For her dumb stupidity! It was obvious they were the same animal (at least, different from that funny deer she saw earlier), and her brain told her they were both "cats". The Cat's fur pricked, but she held her tongue. She'll curse her out when she was not under the constant threat of this dumb sparkle stuff.

Her broken tail lashed as she looked out into the tunnel. "It's for you, stupid. I'm The Cat and you're The Other Cat, Maddy." Mad kept on talking, about how the tunnel went on before leading to three places. Well, how descriptive was that. "-'an I wanna know," the siamese hissed, "So I can get as far away as possible from you!" Oh wait-- shit-- hadn't she just called it Idiot land? "N-not to Idiot Land! Not from where your stupid face came from! I'm going the other way." Pointedly, The Cat spun right around and stalked away from Mad, towards the Polaris entrance. "'Cause I'm a smartie, so I'm going to Awesome Land!"

Oh. Oh. Was little Maddy doing this now? Her fur raised a little when she yelled, but The Cat didn't bother to look over. She was just some stupid kitty crybaby. She'd just continue along and try to find the furthest point in the universe from her-

Then the air got forced out of her lungs.

The Cat landed on the floor with a whoosh. Her soft kitten fluff stained dull brown across her back. The torbie had her pinned roughly on the floor, and she scrabbled her paws instinctively to try and break free. Did this kitten have the audacity to attack her?! She hissed, teeth showing and eyes narrowed with pure malice. Did little idiot Maddy want to play? 'Well, I do.'

She was just a new gembound. She didn't know any advanced fighting or magic, but she had instinct. And instinct she shall use. The Cat played dead for a moment. She stopped flailing, loosened her grip, and closed her eyes. And then, as fast as her newborn body could, pushed her long legs up and down. Her eyes were mere slits and ears pinned reflexively to her side, somewhat hindering her senses, but her claws came out and successfully raked what she hoped was soft stomach flesh. "I don't even have to 'know' you to see how witless you are!" she growled through clenched teeth.

The tiniest rivulet of blood ran down The Cat's leg-- whether it was her own or Mad's, she didn't know. What an amazing way to start your first day of life. With a fight. But now wasn't the time to ponder her bad decision, it was time for bloodshed.

The siamese kitten smirked a little as she yowled, relishing in the agony she seemed to experience. This was going great! The Cat was just about to start again when she suddenly... coughed up a furball. What? But the disgusting wad was coming right for her face, and when it landed, it hurt. Miniature arcs of electricity zapped around her dark face as she screeched, scrunching up her eyes to prevent it from hitting there. Her body arced violently, instinctively, desperately trying to throw it off until it landed on the floor with a plop

'Oh hohoh. Was that another one of your magic tricks, kitty?' She didn't bother speaking, but her mind was full of curses she just invented. She needed to get out of this pin before this stupid torbie unleashed another one of her gags. She flattened her ears further, raising her hackles and curling her broken tail in as best she could. The Cat didn't want to risk hitting something important. She glared Madhukar directly in the eyes, before suddenly surging upwards, pushing off her weak hind legs and slashing blindly towards her face. Perhaps clawing that pretty little face of hers would get her to get off...

The Cat felt the pressure on top of her alleviate. She quickly scrabbled backwards, little claws scraping against stone, and hissed. This stupid kitty managed to do quite the damage. Her back was sore, little sparks of static were still dancing around her fur, and her ears were still a little stiff from that magic-sparkle-booming earlier. She needed to do something, quick.

Of course, The Cat was a young cat. Like, very young. She was just born earlier this day. And her reflexes? Well, they weren't that experienced. The siamese didn't realize why Madhukar was staring at her like that until-- BOOM! The world went quiet in comparison. It was that same, horrid thunderclap, now right over her head! She was disoriented for a while; ears pinned, fur fluffed out, swatting wildly at the air above her and hissing. That stupid ringing was back in her head. 'That's it, Maddy.'

Enraged, the little kitten barreled forward in an attempt to knock the larger torbie off her feet. Her broken tail was still tucked under her body, making her look like a small, mad football. Once she was close enough, the green-eyed terror leaped out into a surprisingly good tackle before slamming down into the ground.

She'd gotten her pinned-- and with a lot more power than she expected. A proud smirk grew across her static-ified face as she stared her nemesis down. Her enemy may be tired, but The Cat? She was feeling as alive as ever!

That was exactly why she got a deep feeling in her gut when Madhukar started that horrid wretching. You know what they say: "Fool me once, shame on you, but fool me twice, I'll punch you in the face." Of course, that's not exactly how it goes, but that was what The Cat was thinking of. She didn't want another one of those electric wads, and she needed to find a way to get her to stop it, quick.

In a rather instinctive manner, The Cat reared her head away, squeezed her eyes shut, and smashed a clawed paw across Mad's face. Once again, it had a lot more power than she thought, and the siamese found to her relief that nothing charged hit her pretty face.
