A human walked into the narrow opening of the alley space. I was laying in thw dark corner at the end of the alley.

I could hear the soft thudher boots made as she walked towards us, her boots sinking into the snow. She got closer to me and Nanao. The snow was thinner by us. My body got hotter and the snow was melting rapidly. She picked me up and I unsheathed my claws instinctively.

"You look like you caught a fever...." the girl looked at me. "Well, I can't leave you here!" She picked up Nanao and started taking us somewhere."I'm Nova" she smiled a bit.
