The sleek dark cat slinks through the dark, abandoned alleyway, silver eyes wide and searching for danger. Clutched in her right paw, a small rat that remained uneaten. She pauses, her small ears twitching, straining to hear any sound that a stranger may make. Holding the dead rat protectively, she manoevers her body through a small hole, just big enough for the five foot seven queen to squeeze though. Had she not been as sleek and flexible, it wouldn't have been as easy (without destroying the entrance). Lack of food was also a benefit in one way. She is as quiet as possible, her silver eyes adjusting to the darkness of the dingy area. "Rammie?" She whispers, peering at all the small hiding spaces in the abandoned room. She flinches as a drip of water drops onto her head, and she moves further into the room. Beams of wood had been carelessly left hanging around, dripping pipes lined the roof that left puddles here and there and added to the cold staleness. It was the latest hiding spot, and as much as she wished it different, it was what they called home for the moment. It isn't the worst place they've stayed.

Tucked into a dark and clammy corner, underneath his "fort" which consisted of a stained and ripped blanket slung carefully over a rotting plank of wood to serve as a tent was Ramkahon. He perked his ears and didn't respond right off, straining to listen for his sister's voice again, or any other movement. When he thought it safe, the young tom ducked his head as he peeked around the edge of his blanket, eyes glinting.
"Dinah?" he replied, his voice at a stage whisper. "Are you back? Say the secret password!"

She clutches the rat, not too tightly so that she does not squeeze the good parts. Her stomach growls but she ignores it, small ears perking when she hears the voice of her beloved brother.
"'Rammie is the greatest'" She whispers back, and holds the rat in front of her. "I've brought dinner." She smiles, her fingers fiddling with the fuzzy tail of the rodent.

He loved that password. The exotic tom grinned and lifted the flap to allow her to join him in his fort. "Just one?" he said, hope in his tone. Quickly he added, as not to sound ungrateful, "but it's a really big one and we'll get really full with it."

She looks to the corner as the fort opens, and she slinks to the corner. She crawls on all fours to be able to fit in the hiding space. She sits crosslegged on the cold floor, and hands the small creature to her brother. "Unfortunately it's all I could get. You can have it, I'm not hungry today." She smiles, and tickles Rammie behind his ear. "So, did you get up to any mischief while I was gone?"
