She needed a new beginning.
That's what everyone needed, right? Even the worst kinds of people, the murderers, the people who would abandon their children for no reason, the ones without empathy - they just needed second chances. It wasn't just a fairy tale that everyone could change, she told herself, because if second chances couldn't help people, then how was she going to get better?
As the domestic feline slunk inwards towards the border, pausing next to the distinct smell, she wondered if it was all worth it. Was it really? Did she really deserve a second chance? Hell, did she ever have a first chance? Maybe her parents were right, maybe they realized that she was awful, and that's why they left. Maybe, maybe, maybe. She sat down next to the border, half tempted to start kneading the earth, still cold from the remnants of winter, her bright pink fur undoubtedly standing out in harsh contrast to the mountainous scenery. She had nothing to go on regarding the existence of a group here besides hearsay and a scent, though her trust in her abilities was limited at best. Never had much experience with smells anyways, even less experience than she did with people - for all she knew this was an old territory, and she was just going to be sitting out here in the cold.
Frankly, the temptation to just give up and leave was rising by the second, but she didn't let it show, trying to look as positive as possible - though her expression was more likely to be seen as cold and distant than anything else, despite her best efforts.
Not that she could do anything about it anyways.
