In the silence of the night, cats came. Young and old, Short and tall, they came. They walked with grace and purpose. Each one with their own talent, their own quirk, and yet... each of them meshed together to create one group.
The leader at the front flicked her tail, the cats behind her stopped soundlessly. The leader was of average height and remarkably beautiful. She held herself with pride and wisdom beyond her years. She surveyed the land before looking back at her assembled rouges. "We're here." Her voice floated amongst the shadows and silence.
As soon as the silence was broke the cats peeled off from their orderly rows and began their tasks. Some hunted, some patrolled the area, others began to prepare nests and such. This would be their home.
((Okay, this place is for rouges or loners or even kittypets that think they cane make it in the real world, that do not have a home. These rouges are loyal to their leader and to their own rouge-mates. These rouges are different than most. They have extraordinary talant. Post any cats that you would like to have be apart of this group))

(Question; so like do they get to have time alone or do they have to be with their rogue group 24/7?)

((They have alone time. But when the group needs them they are always there. They're kinda like a clan but different. They're more unique. THeir kinda outsiders to the whole cat world, but their skills are unmatched.))

(Another Question: What are these skills? Are they what we decide them to be or....?)

((They can't have over the top powerfully destructive skills; willow said. However, their skills are what you want them to be. These rouges are almost like ghosts. They move silently, they prefer the night, they are all gracefull, agile, and majestic. They move insycn with eachother. But even though they blend in together and strike as one, each of them has an odd quirk or skill that makes them valuable and different.))

(Oh right yeah good idea I'll do that later today or sometime this week)
A tortoishell watched the group quietly before slinking down quietly, now exactly sure who they were, but interested to find out more. "Um, hello?" She meowed to the cat at the front of the group.

A black she-cat approached the leader. Her mother was a spirit cat, and she wanted her child no-where near the Spirit cats. and Rayat wanted nothing to do with her Aunt's intrepid goal of world conqueration... she needed away from her cavern home. "Excuse me?" Her voice was a mid alto with the echoing sound of a deep cavern in it. It sounded hollow, but also solid, with strength and emotion. She had sharp golden eyes, the eyes of her father, her mother's one and only enemy, the eyes that haunted her mother for her life, the eyes that had haunted HER for her whole life, every nightmare... Unlike her father's eyes they held no ego, no self absorption, and no Malice, curiosity sparkled in their gold depths, surrounded by pain, and drenched in loneliness. Rayat had been alone for too long.
Her black fur was gentle, smooth, fluffy and soft, it blended into night almost completely. She had picked up from her mother how to walk in silence, and move in silence, along with a self control, she never lost her temper, and never had more of an emotional display than to turn her face away and grit her teeth, or clamp her eyes shut. Her name itself meant Control, and control she was.

Pairs of curious eyes shinned out of the shadows. A hum of whispers sounded as cats began to gaze at the new comer. Some showed distain while others looked on with interest. The leader turn her bright violet hued eyes onto the tortoiseshell she-cat as well as the cat who called herself, Rayat. The leader's pelt was pitch black with white ringlets along her legs and tail. "Hello." Her voice sounded almost hollow, little emotion filtered through.

"I am Rayat. I have no home, and I want one, I can fight, i can hunt, I can work, I will do so, and anything else you wish me to do, if you allow me to join you. I am loyal, and I will give my life for this group if it is what is necessary." She said, her voice was hard as steel, still echoing, but firm, like getting a titanium tube thrown at you, and having it land around you, locking you in, and someone talking through the top of it. HEr claws flexed into the ground, the only hint of emotion outside the firm set of her voice. Her eyes were locked on the leader's eyes, and her stance was casual, but firm, shoulders squared, body straight, strong, head up, Jaw set.

Angry hisses swept through the group, the hostility began to grow. A couple cats crept closer, their eyes narrowed and claws flexed. The leader's tail lashed to one side and held still. Instantly, her cats were quiet and motionless.
"Eternity," The leader called.
An older she-cat stepped forward into a pool of moonlight. Her pelt was a dull brown with stripes of black. Her mix matched eyes looked once at Rayat and then back at her leader. "Yes?"
"You know her from your past."
Eternity dipped her head once.
"Trust?" The leader meowed, quietly.
"Life." Eternity returned, simply.
The leader looked back at Rayat then at Eternity. The leader dipped her head and Eternity fell back into the shadows. "Rayat," THe leader meowed, adressing the she-cat that stood in front of her. "I am Veiledemotion, leader of this group of cats called, The Hollow." Veiledemotion stood on all fours and circled Rayat once, "You need a home. We have one to give. You will not be accepted fully in the eyes of many til you have proven yourself." She cautioned. "Our life is hard, as you may know. There are groups who fight over territory, prey, and fight to take lives." Her vocie became hard, "We can give you a home, but are you sure you want it?"

Rayat lashed tail. "Yes." she said, the same steely adamant resolve in it her mother had when faced with a challenge, and she had a stronger determination as well. She looked at Eternity her eyes huge "Grandmother?" she whispered. "Mom said.... but.. you were...." Rayat shook her head, her small black ears flipping. "I will do whatever it takes to prove myself to your group." She said to VeiledEmotion.

Veiledemotion smiled, "Welcome Rayat." Stepped back and allowed the new comer to be seen. "Welcome to The Hollow." The cats of the Hollow looked at Rayat, some with mild curiousity some with rage and hostiltiy but each one of them dipped their heads in respect. Veiledemotion looked back at the tortoiseshell, she'd deal with her later.
The group began to break up once more. Going about their odd jobs. The frail Eternity walked over to her young granddaughter, "Ah. Rayat." She whispered and licked her head, "Welcome to the Hollow."

The tortoishell she cat listened all the while, waiting for them to be finished. She shuffled her paws at how angry cats were that Rayat had joined them. "I'm Leaf," She spoke up, hiding her nervousness and raising her head proudly. "And I wish the same as Rayat." She stated. "And I will do anything to show you my loyalty."

The other cats sent the tortoiseshell a steely look but went on with their tasks. Veiledemotion yawned as if she was bored. Her violet eyes looked at the shecat called, Leaf. "What makes you want to join the Hollow? In need of a home?"

Rayat touched noses to her grandmother a tear pricked at her eyes, she clamped it shut and closed down the waterworks "Mom said you were dead.. you died in kit-birth, I was there for the burial.. your tomb.." she looked back towards where the caverns were. "I had to leave... the caverns aren't safe.... Temptation has formed a group, with all the families, the big ones.. she has VampireBat's, Deaths..." Rayat shivered. "She was going to force me into it.... I'm surprised I got away.. I had to wait for nightfall though.... The Spirit Rogues have gone deeper.... they want nothing to do with it... but Mom doesn't want me in the deep with her." Rayat frowned.

Eternity licked the tear away, "Hush now." She meowed, her voice like dark velvet. "As long as you're here, with us you'll be safe. I had to leave." Pain was evident in her voice, "I just had to. I was supposed to die. I was destined to die, but.. it just... It didn't go as planned. So, I ran. I ran away from all I knew and what was. I now live here. We are strong and move as one. We are not like any of the traditional rouge groups. No spite, jealousy, corruption, and what not." She blinked back her own tears. "No more hate." Then, she smiled.

Four young cats continued to watch the leader from the shadow of a large-ish boulder: Zane --a half-black-half-white tom(the two colors divided down the center of his shoulder blades, face, belly, and tail) with mix-matched green and violet eyes-- Zylo --a tuxedo black tom with green eyes-- Myra --a rose brown she-cat with mix-matched gold and blue eyes eyes-- Ree --a smoke gray and white patched she-cat with aqua blue eyes.
They'd lived with this group of cats practically since birth and all had their own "talent."
About 8 moons old each, they were very into group politics.

"Ah, your aunt and uncle." Eternity shifted and looked around. "Deception, Vengeance." She called softly. Deception was the first to appear, followed by Vengeance. Deception looked as happy as she had ever been, "Rayat." SHe greeted and touched noses. Vengeance sat beside Eternity, a ghost of a smile on his face, "Hey, long time no see. Eh?"
Screech and his sister, Cybil, trotted over to the four cats. Screech had found this group at 4 moons while his sister had found it just recently. Screech looked over at their leader and then at the cat she was speaking to, "What do you think about Veiledemotion's actions?" He asked the others quietly.

Rayat grinned and jumped catching Vengeance in the chest and licking his face, letting control of her emotions slip long enough to be happy. Rayat was as large as her uncle easily, and probably ended up knocking him over, but she wasn't paying attention she was so happy to see her family.

"You mean about letting in new cats?" Zane asked, his mix-matched eyes lifting to Screech's.
"I think she's trying to power up her numbers, just like every other leader on this planet." He paused for a second,
"If you look closely enough, you might decide that she's preparing for an invasion or attack on our group."
"Or she could be preparing to attack another group." Myra's eyes sparkled as she spoke.
"Maybe she just wants to have a strong force." Ree mewed.
"Or she was just being nice to the new cats."
"Or we could all be looking too deeply into the matter." Zylo's growl interupted them.

Eternity chuckled.
Deception couldn't help but let out a cute girly giggle. Seeing Rayat all over her brother was just so.. CUTE! Vengeance toppled over and couldn't help but laugh, "Hey now!" He meowed as he struggled to regain his footing. "How've you been?" He playfully cuffed Rayat over the ears, "Took you long enough." He added as an after thought.
Screech paused for a moment. Soaking up what he had heard. "I agree with Ree. I think she's just trying to get our numbers up."
Cybil yawned boredly and looked over at Veiledemotion. "Well, she could be accepting new cats for the numbers." She evaluated, "But she could also be accepting them because she see's potential in them or prehaps she wants to overrule our neighboring rouges. THere are so many options."
Screech nodded, "Speaking of options... Who do you think she'll elect as 2nd in command? Ellegance has been dead for well over a moon now..."
