Soldier, Poet, King

Chapter 1 : Humble Beginings.

A small, underweight cat girl could be seen running though a forest, as a team of cat pawlice chase her. The little cat slipped through trees and bushes but the pawlice arent giving up.
Heavy breathing, loud footsteps, leaves brushing against a moving object. Animals running away from the scene. It was all that could be heard.
The cat girl , named niou, thought back as to how she got in such a dire situation, as she stopped to take a short break to catch her breath.

_____________1 week ago______________

Niou walked around, trying to find any food she could snatch with little chance of being caught. She was an orphan, her parents had left her to go chase their own lives.
She looked around, the scent of baked bread filled the air. A cart of baked goods was wheeling through the town. "Come get some! Fresh baked bread just baked this morning!"
Oh what niou would do to get just a bite of that. Well, she would steal. And she did.
Niou carefully crept up to the cart, making use of her small, underweight body.
Carefully, she swiped a piece of bread while the baker was busy tending to customers.
'he wouldnt miss a small loaf right? Yeah, itll be fine' niou talked to herself as she ran at the highest speed she could back to her home.
Niou got back to a small tent made off thrown away, and ripped up clothing. There, her adoptive little sister, Mew, awaited her. "Ni! Your back! You have food? Where did you get food?"
"Shhh. I had to steal it. Dont worry about it though. Here, eat up" ni broke the bread in half to share between her and her younger sister. Mew was also an orphan, but for a different reason. Her parents both died during a riot a few years ago. Noone had the heart to tell Mew, so they told her that her parents will be back later. Ni is certain Mew still believes so.
Later that night, niou felt sick. There was nothing wrong with the bread, so how could she be sick? She looked around, no insect bites, and no visible marks either. And yet, something felt... Off.
Something was compelling, no ordering Ni to walkto the wall behind her. She wasnt sure what to do, as she just walked around the wall questioning what she really wanted to do now that shes here.she touched the wall, and to her surprise, her hand phased through, with a glitch effect as her hand deconstructed itself into pixels and the reconsytructed itself into a hand. With curiosity taking the helm, she tried to push her entire body through...

Which ended with her face planting directly into said wall.

She fell back from the pain, but she knew that this was a sign of something. The entire night was spent with her slowly figuring out what triggered what, and how to do it.

Morning came, and Niou was tired. She wanted nothing more but to just sleep. But she knew she cant, she had to find food and water for Mew.
As she was preparing herself to set off to the town square, an idea struck.

Can't she just glitch there and back with no chance of being caught?

She decided that she had nothing to lose, really.

She tried, focused all her brainpower into this one manuever.
When she opened her eyes, she was at the town square.
She couldnt believe it, and to top it all off, noone noticed!
Quickly, she grabbed another loaf of bread with new found confidence, and then glitched away.
Confidence is not something good to have when your not fully in control yet.
She glitched. She certainly did. But instead she glitched upwards instead of sidewards, and is now plummeting straight to her death.
With the last of her energy, she glitched to narrowly avoid death,and from then on ran as fast as she could

Unbeknownst to her, someone was watching the entire act.
