Jua
Jua's large paws padded silentally across warm sand. She could feel it seeping between her pads. It sent chill through her, but not of cold, of hot. So hot. She was just glad that her coat was of a paler color. Her heart went to those who obsorbed the suns rays with their dark pelts. Even though the young cat enjoyed the warming rays that fell apon her they could make one very fatigued and thirsty if they were traveling long without water. This was a situation she hoped she would never have to take on, but one never knows. She had journyed without food for long times. The memories stated to flood back to her. Pain, so much pain. Her fear scent had been so strong. Constantally she worried she wouldn't live. That she would become sand. No one ever knowing that she even existed. She shooke her head. In that she hoped to shake away the memories. They still lingered in the back of her mind, alway.
With honey eyes she took in the wonderful sights that the desert has to offer in the colorful months. The prickly cactus that is normally avoided in fear, but now they are so beautiful. Many eyes fall apon them in amazment that something that can cause so much pain can sport the vibrant flowers they do. Oranges and yellows and pinks spread across the land. They seemed to mirror a sunset, only on land. The creamy cat wanted to lean in to smell the scents that were released. Jua didn't though because she remembered her last encounter with a prick to the nose. It had taken nearly a day for her to free the barb from herself.
Jua decided it was best that she moved on. Her tail hung low. She was missing something, someone, but she didn't know who or what. All she could do was hope that oneday they would show up and save her from the nothingness. The absence of feeling. She wanted her sences to go crazy. She wanted there to be a cat or a being that she knew everything about, and one that could say the same about her. Jua had never experienced this, she could only imagine. Even then she knew she wanted it. So badly that she would wait, she had waited so long, but she wanted it to be perfect. Or at least as close to it as she could come. After all she knew there was no perfect just the same as there is no normal, but she never said thats what she was looking for...

Tider Lily treaded softly through the sand letting it seep into her pads with each step. She loves that feeling of having warm sand between her toes. There's wasn't much better. She picked up her pad from the ground letting the sand run out from between each toe and then put it back down letting it squeeze betwwen each toe again. 'Why am I so easily amused?' She asked herself starting to laugh. She wanted to jump and hollar at the top of her lungs but the other cats that were hunting anywhere near her wouldn't appreciate that at all. They always told her she had way too much energy. That when she got older she would be wishing she had taken more time to practice her skills instead of goofing off. The thought started to make her sad. She shook her head shaking the thoughts away. She didn't want to be sad, that was just a waste of time.
She looked up from the sand because she had smelled an animal near to her. It was another big cat like herself. She didn't recognize the she-cat. She slowly padded up to the she-cat letting her know that she was being friendly. "Hello" She said as she got close enough to the cat for her to hear her. "I'm Tiger Lily, I don't recognize you. You are?" She asked leaving the conversation open for the cat to reply back.This cat didn't look much older than her. She wondered to herself if the were the same age. Did they have anything in common? "I don't mean to be rude or nosy but how old are you? You look like you're about my age, so I was just wondering." She said hoping for some weird reason that this cat was her age. There weren't very many Tiger kits that made it through the winter the year she was born.
Tiger Lily looked across the sandy desert. You could see for miles! She wasn't very good at hunting. She never really understood how anyone could be good at hunting in a place where it seems you could see everything in like a 100 mile radius. She knew it just took a lot of practice but she wasn't very quite and she really just didn't like silences. She moved her paws around while she waited. She wasn't very good at sitting still either. She loved to run. That's why everyone said it made no since she was bad at hunting. She was about the fastest runner in their group.
