Hawksight didn't know how long she was asleep for. When she woke up, she was trapped in a small space and something was rubbing against her neck uncomfortably. The strange webbing was gone, but the dark tabby she-cat didn't know where she was. tall things around her were a blinding white, and the ground was soft and cream-colored. Her paws made no sound as she padded around, looking for a way out of here. Something was over on one side of the space, the same color as the strange earth. When Hawksight pressed one forepaw to it, she found it was very soft. She leapt up onto the thing and looked around, sitting down. "It's not so bad here," she mewed out loud to herself. "But it sure isn't the forest. I've got to get back there..." She stood and leapt from the thing to the ground, noticing that her paws made a dull thud as she landed. "Snowclaw?" she meowed, though she was sure he couldn't hear her. She was alone in this small space, unsure of where she was or what to do. How do I get out of here? she wondered, padding around the enclosed area. She pressed against the white objects with her paws, and was surprised when one area swung in the direction she was pushing. What is THAT? she thought, squeezing through and finsing herself in another enclosed space. This time the things enclosing her were sky-colored, the weird grass underpaw white and fluffy like clouds. She could see another cat, and she meowed, "Hello?" The cat turned, startled. "How did you get in here?" it meowed. "My housefolk won't like seeing a strange cat in the house." What's a house? Hawksight thought, utterly confused. "How do I get outside?" she asked the strange cat. It shrugged. "You don't, unless the housefolk let you out," it mewed. "My name's Skye, by the way," the cat went on. "Hawksight," Hawksight mewed, introducing herself. Skye's whiskers twitched. "Your collar says you're Rayne," she meowed. Collar? Hawksight thought, rubbing her neck with a paw. Is that what this is? Skye meowed, "My housefolk brought you and another cat in. Dunno where he is though. Probably in another room." Hawksight sighed irritably. "Listen," she mewed, "I'm a Clan cat. I don't belong in a Twoleg nest!" Skye looked bewildered. "What's a Twoleg?" she meowed. "Er...housefolk," Hawksight mewed, correcting herself for the kittypet. This is going to be a long day, she thought, sighing once more.
