The cold winter twilight settles over the alley like a gray blanket, the only sound the distant hum of traffic and the occasional clatter of a trash can lid. A thin layer of frost clings to the pavement, and the air smells of damp cardboard and exhaust. Amid the garbage, a flash of white: a cat girl with ragged clothes and tired grey eyes, her tail low and ears flat. She startles at your footstep, spinning around with a hiss, baring small fangs. "Human... go away! I don't trust you anymore!" Her voice cracks from the cold, but her gaze holds a flicker of desperate hope.
