The scent of blood had drawn her to this place, away from her snowy mountain tops. She hadn't left the safety of the snowy peaks as the one time she had, her brother William had been lost. She feared this new land but she would never let another know this. Other beasts resided here, beasts she had never seen before or even smelled before. Kathleen would make sure that they knew she was a force to be reckoned with.

Her ivory and onyx spotted pelt made her stand out against the blood stained surroundings. There was no where for her to hide here. No where her pelt would blend in. The only thing she would have going for her down here would be her speed and agility. She could run and go where many creatures of the lower lands couldn't go. She was born and raised in a place where even the smallest slip up meant death.

A bird flew over head and made a sound she had never before heard a bird make. Instantly her icy sapphire orbs moved to the sky, it was definitely not one of the eagles she was use to seeing. She was at a loss as to what kind of bird it was, what she did know however, was that if it came low enough it would become dinner. As she stalked low to the ground her tail lashed from side to side, and she wondered silently what odd creature would cross her path next.

The dark man had not come to the battlefields in search of a fight. He hated fighting. There were only two reasons he ever came here, one was because there was someone here who needed healing or two because he was simply passing through. Today he happened to just be walking by when the large, yet short, feline came into view.

She looked as if she was ready to eat anything that crossed her path. Based on the way she glared up at the vulture that owned the skies above her, he assumed that it was the smell of blood that drew her to this area. As he watched her stalk around bellow the feathered creature he debated on going to her.

He did not fear her, but he knew caution was something to be held on to rather than tossed aside and ignored. Perhaps all she needed was a friend, or even help with something. Either way he would keep some distance between them as not to become her meal.

His long legs drew him within five yards of her. From the looks of her it wasn't near enough if she decided to attack him but curiosity had won him over at this point. "Hello." his deep voice rang. As a last minuet though he hopped he hadn't startled her.
