for you...

Deep breathe.. Walk a bit.. Stop.  

Will they even consider taking me in? The thoughts filled the twenty-one year old male. He had been on his own since coming to America, dabbling here and there but always keeping his true self hidden. He was an expert at that.. Since he was little he had to keep his ears and tail from view, out of sight out of mind but now he grew weary.

With determination and a hopeful mind he set forth. He had heard of the small community in the forest for people like him, he hadn't seen someone like himself in years.. Ever since he was small, five was it?  He shook his head and stared into the thicket. He felt his heart pound and it made him sick. For the longest time he stood there just staring before gathering up the courage to move onwards. Despite him liking to be on his own, he yearned for companionship for something that made him feel whole.

Onwards he went, trekking through the woods. Stumbling over the foreign land. He had only visited the forest once every blue moon but phasing into his cat form he never did.. What if someone saw? Made a show of him?  It wasn't like he cared but he didn't want to be put into a cage and for some reason he felt a strong pull.. A nagging feeling.. Something told him he needed to leave home and come here..

Now coming to a halt once more, his eyes took in the wall and gate that stood in his way of entering the village. "What do I do now..?" he mumbled to himself as he tilted his head to look at the darkening sky. He had to admit it was rather peaceful out here.. Quiet and away from those who sought to harm his kind. 

Now he would wait.. Another thing he was good at, even to this day he was waiting on someone.. Someone from his past to return. "Hello?" he called out

 Desiree eyes fluttered open as she sat up from the bed that she was provided after being accepted. It was definitely a good day as she finally gets to start her job and help with patrolling. Finally getting up, she headed to her closet and put a off the shoulder white shirt, black shorts and white canvas shoes. Desiree soon put on minimal makeup and brushed out her blonde hair. She soon looked in the mirror and took a deep breath, " Well here I go." turning away from her reflection Desiree exited her room and headed towards outside. Now outside she decided it would be better to look around in her cat form. Quickly her feet turned into tiny paws as her ears twitched with different sounds around her. Her eyes scanned around the area deeply with each step she takes. So far everything had seemed clear to her.

After about an hour she had patrolled most of village except near the gate. The feline trotted to the stony exterior, before stopping in her traces. Desiree lifted her head into the air she began to sniff the air and narrowed her eyes. Something is not right here... she thought to her as she leaped onto the gate. The feline quickly spotted the shadow of a human male and she soon became suspicious. Hopping down from the stone, she shifted back to her human form and walked through the gate. As soon as the gates closed behind her she faced the guards and signaled them not to attack yet, then she faced the male with a serious tone inflicted in her voice. " Who are you?, and what purpose do you have to come here?" Desiree said clearly. She folded her arms across her chest and waited for the male to respond.

He had waited for what seemed to be a long time and growing tired he had moved to sit in the roots of a tree with his head pressed against the trunk. Maybe they'll never show up.. Maybe I made a mistake coming here. He chewed absentmindedly on his lower lip as he watched a small beetle climb up a piece of grass and then fall to the ground and wiggling its little legs in the air.  His eyes softened as he watched, amazed at the determination that the little bug had and as he watched he smiled, becoming slightly mesmerized by the little thing.

How many minutes had past? He was sure, it seemed like forever. Shifting he pushed himself to his feet and turned to set off before he heard the sound of the gate opening and then shutting. His shoulders tensed and he looked over his shoulder to the girl who stood there.

Frowning slightly, he tilted his head. His eyes showed distrust and he turned his whole body to face her. "Are you the Queen of this place?" he asked her.. He was slightly taken aback by her tone and her questions so instead of answering he placed a question out in the open for her to answer.

 Her may had slightly wrinkled in frustration when the male had basically dodged her questions. Hmph, This one is definitely nervous She thought to herself as her eyes still focused on the male. " No I am not the queen. I am one of the King's Ambassadors." Desiree said without hesitation. " Now that I've answered your question, it will only be common courtesy to answer mine." A small smirk went across Desiree's face, I guess you can say it's her way of looking nice. The guy was lucky that her patience level was high today. As somedays she doesn't have the best mood and she could get a little snappy from time to time. But all that really didn't matter as she was more focused on getting the information than getting into a argument.

The girl's words sent a smile across Jeremy's face and he folded his arms over his chest as he looked her up and down. He wanted to answer with a snarky remark but he held his tongue shrugged his shoulders. His eyes sparked playfully and he moved closer.

"Me?" he asked as he flicked his tail behind him. "My name is Jeremy.. I'm seeking a home.." he said as he let his gaze move past her and rest on what was behind her.  Was this really such a good idea? Again he bit his lower lip as he thought over what he was doing. He didn't trust others but he wanted to be among his own kind, perhaps be able to shift once in a while.. Would it be painful? He wondered.

His deep brown eyes lowered and he studied the ground and his smile faded for a second before he looked up, his face beaming once more. "So now that I have answered your question, can I enter?" he asked hesitantly

 Desiree nodded her head as she took in the information the male gave to her. Her ears twitched lightly as she noticed Jeremy had moved closer, but it didn't bother her much as if he would try anything she was surely capable of handling him on her home. As he asked if that was the only question she gave a small chuckle. " Woah there, hold your horses I'm not done with you yet." Desiree just could not let him walk through. She had to find out what was his skills were, well that's probably what Dartainan would ask. Looking back to Jeremy she asked him his third question. " Before I consider to accept you, tell me about skills? As we do not want any weak links apart of this clan." She said smoothly.

Skills? He paused and tilted his head in thought before flashing another smile at her. Moving hand to his ear and scratched at it. Shuffling away some he drew in a deep breath before deciding to speak. "I'm not skilled in very many things, I will be honest there." Jeremy said as he looked at the ground and kicked at a root with the toe of his shoe.

"I will not claim I'm intelligent or useful.. in fact I have never been in my tr- I mean my cat form." he looked up for a moment then looked away again. Why was he telling her that? she wouldn't care or understand but this form was his true form and he felt comfortable like this... After a moment of silence he drew in a breath and continued "I do know herbs, I wanted to become a doctor but I decided I should probably find others like me.." he answered her question

 Her ears perked up a bit when the male mentioned he never shifted into his feline form. That statement definitely made Desiree slightly frown upon the fact of how bad it could be if they needed to transform from safety. But her scowl faded away when he talked about how good he is with herbs, and that he wanted be a doctor. Once he was finished, Desiree began contemplating on whether or not this Jeremy fellow was worthy of joining. Within a few minutes of her deciding she looks towards the male. "I've made my decision. I feel that you will a good addition to our as a Healer." She said calmly before getting into a serious tone. " I warn you this, do not try any funny business or you will have deal with me or the King. And trust me you don't want to get on my angry side." Desiree turned around to the guards and motion them to open the gates before turning around happily with her clasping her hands. "Now if you would follow me I will take you to the villa where you can get settle for now, and meet the King if he's there." With that Desiree entered the domain hoping that the male will follow her.

Jeremy swallowed hard and glanced back the way he had come..  Is this really what he wanted? he had lived his life as a human since birth, was he really going to give that part of his life up? Sighing he put his hand to one of his ears and pressed it firmly down to his head before letting it go, his ear springing back into it's position. Sighing again, he scratched at his cheek before taking the first step to follow Desiree Talbot but then stopped again.  At the girl's words his face grew pale and he chewed nervously on his lip and hesitated again.. What if he was found useless here like he was everywhere else? Pulling his lips into a smile, he gave a nod and with a steady voice he said "Okay"

After speaking he began to follow after her again and thought to himself, regardless.. Smile, and make others happy..
