It had been some time since she had fallen asleep at the bottom of the boat. Feeling the gentle rocking back and forth of the small vessel she had commandeered from some rowdy rough housing fools. It had not been that hard to trick them. Not like they knew who she was anyway, just another riftraft that they could boss around. Most of them came by boat, visited, did what they pleased and then left. She wanted out of the life that was given to her and so she had formed a plan during one such event and struck. The drunken fools would wake up with one such boat missing. Oh well, they would just have to cram to make room in what they had left. Dirty and looking rather rough the young feline slowly woke with the feeling of hunger gnawing at her stomach.
Eyes squinted at the harsh sunlight and she lifted her alabaster paw to rub at her face for a moment. Dirt and grim were normal, natural. She had lived on the streets for most her life so she never thought about it. The black ribbon around her neck fluttered with the breeze and she sighed as she climbed her way to the helm of her small vessel. "I thought I would be somewhere by now...." Her voice, sweet and light held an edge of agitation. Most likely due to her grumbling stomach. With a sigh she grabbed up the small loaf of bread she had been nibbling on and ate the rest of that before trying to rest again.
It was well after nightfall when her boat scrapped against land and startled her awake. Her head jolted up and she was quick to move to the edge of the boat. Her eyes widened as she realize she was on land and someplace foreign. Yet it didn't stop her from jumping out and testing her legs. Wobbly but still functioning she gazed around at the place and her short tail twitched with her curiosity. It was growing but the small woman knew she had to be cautious. Never knew if one place was just like the other. Shaking her head a little she would begin to make hee way forward, sniffing at this and that before her stomach gave a sudden snarl. "Ugh...that's so embarrassing."
