We traded costumes and extra info on the outfits, after that we split up. Cale and Caleb were picked up by their mother, and Willow and Nova walked to a busstop. I didn't have a long distance home so I just walked. The wind weren't as bad as before, but the rain was now worse. I walked past one of those sketchy-looking side ways, I thought for a second I heard something. I stopped, I listened with all my might. I heard it once again, it was muffeled but there was no mistake. Someone or something was in there, my heart speed up as I walked closer. It smelled horrible in there, a dumpster was in my way so I tried to push it. It was too heavy for me to even move it an inch, I looked around for another way. To my left, leaned against the wall, stood a few wooden boxes.

I crawled up on the dumpster and jumped down on the other side. The muffeled sound were getting louder, I walked further into the sideway. Just 10 feet away were two cardboard boxes placed, one of them were closed the other open. The open one was filled with cans, all opened. But my interest was in the second box, it was closed and the sound seemed to come from it. I slowly got closer and bowed down and opened it.

It was a tiny, soaking wet shaking kitten, it was black with yellowish-brown eyes. It had a white spot over its right eye, the right eye were more yellowish than the other. It looked up at me wimpering and calling for its mom. I picked the little black kitten up, I held on to it tightly. I crawled up on the dumpster and jump down on the other side. I looked around people didn't even look at me, I just turned and ran home.

Adam greeted me in the door, he smiled and I smiled back.
"What's that?" He asked and pointed at the kitten.
"I... I found it in the box on the street, it needs a home." I looked down realizing I hadn't thought this through.
"I see... Do you like cats?" Adam asked me. I looked up at him with a confused look.
"Yeah... I like them!" I smiled.
"You can keep her." Adam ruffled my hair. I hugged him and thanked him many times.
"Is it a her?" I asked.
"Yeah she looks like one." Adam pet the small kitten. "Anyway, I'm out to get the groceries."
Adam left me in the door way, I smiled and waved to him as he drove off. I quickly got inside and closed the door after me. Mitch and Jerome were sitting on the couch watching something.
"Guess what!?" I asked them.
"I don't know, taco?" Jerome looked at me.
Mitch turned to look at me too, he smiled.
"Meet my kitten!" I showed them the black kitten.
"It's so cute!" Jerome pet the little cat, it tried to scratch him.
"Oh!" Jerome jumped a bit in surprise. "Hot headed little temper huh?"
"Yup!" Mitch agreed.
I smiled and went upstairs to my room, I placed the kitten on my bed. She looked at me as I lay next to her, she crawled up on my stomach. She placed her head on my chest looking at me, I wondered a bit about what to call her. I smiled and whispered:
"Hello Reaper." I liked the way the word sounded, also it felt good to say it. I smiled, I knew what a reaper was but it just felt right. If I didn't like it tomorrow I could always change it. I felt my finger glide over the black fur, it was soft and Reaper started to purr. I lifted him off me and sat up, Reaper called for me as I stood up. I lifted up the kitten and place him on my shoulder. I walked downstairs and was greeted by Ty and Jason on their way inside.
"Who is that?" Ty pointed at Reaper.
"Her name is Reaper for now." I looked at Reaper and he licked my cheek.
"Well she seems to already like you." Jason laughed.
"I'm her new mother now, someone has to be. I found her in a cardboard box next to dumpster." I said as I walked to the kitchen, I found a can of tuna and fed Reaper.
"Awww poor Reaper." Seto smiled at the kitten. "She's so cute, I like her eye."
I looked at the flame shaped fur from his eye, it was white and felt almost magical.
"True but if a cat can have a mustace, my Reaper can have flame shaped fur around his eye." I grinned.
