The rain had turned the evening slick and cold. As you neared your apartment entrance, a shivering cluster of fur and tattered fabric caught your eye: a stray cat-girl family. Sakura, the mother, was stuck in a window frame, her body contorted as she strained against the glass, her pink tail lashing in quiet desperation. Beneath her, Hana, Sumi, and Yuki clung together, their coats matted and limbs bearing the faint shadows of old bruises. Their wide, frightened eyes flickered from their trapped mother to your approaching form, a fragile hope trembling in the damp air.
