Shadow sat on a bench...she was a shy Neko and no one talked to her...her tail sat by her and her ears sat straight up. She looked at her hands...She was fiddling with something...
Her ears were black with grey ear fur. Her tail was a dark shade of black. She had blonde hair. She wore a black coat, a black shirt, black pants, and black socks with shoes... there was some purple and black strands of hair with her blonde. The day was nice...the sun on her back...she felt warm and she loved it... Yet she still felt horrible for herself...

"excuse me"
a voice rung out through the air. it came from a young man standing 6"1'. he had longer brown hair and blue eyes that seemed to almost glow. he raised his arm, which was covered by the sleeve of his grey hoodie jacket, and pointed to the empty spot on the bench next to the girl.
"i'm sorry to bother you, but may i sit here for a while? i have while to wait and would like to take a load off."

"N-No...I-I d-don't m-mind..."
She says. She felt very nervous, but wouldn't deprive someone of rest.

"oh, thank you."
he slowly sat down beside her and let out a sigh of content. after a moment, he turn his gaze to the timid girl.
"thanks again for the seat, i've been walking for a long while. my name is Ion."
he raised his hand toward the girl for a handshake.
"what's your name?"

"what's your name?"
She held out her shaky hand and shook his.
"I-I'm S-Shadow..." She says.
She is happy that she shared the seat with him, but doesn't look him in the eye.
"I-I'm S-Shadow..." She says.

it only took a second for Ion to notice the girls uneasiness. she seemed rather nervous...almost afraid. could he be causing it? he would never want to do that....but then she could be bothered by something else...maybe he could help. after a moment of thought, he asks her.
"i'm sorry, but...i'm not bothering you am i?"
"i'm sorry, but...i'm not bothering you am i?"
"N-no...I-I'm j-just s-shy..."
She responds still feeling rather nervous.

"oh. i'm sorry if I've made you uncomfortable. would you like to talk about something"
he knew he probably shouldn't do this. if the girl is really shy, she probably doesn't wanna talk....but...his curiosity is peeking it's head. what was this neko girl doing here? he couldn't ever remember seeing one before. he couldn't help it,he had to know.
"if i may...what brought you out here today?"

She grew tense...
She didn't want to answer this...
"I-I'm r-running."
She didn't want to see his reaction.

he grew quite for a second. running? running form what? what could this seemingly sweet girl be running from? he probably has no right, but if he can help her in any way...he has too. he couldn't live with himself if he didn't at least try. he spoke in a calming voice.
"what happened? what is making you run? maybe i can help."
"what happened? what is making you run? maybe i can help."
"N-No o-one c-can h-help m-me..."
She said.
After what had happened...no one could help her...

this wasn't good. she seems to be more troubled than he thought. but...this made him more determined to help, but first, he has to know what she needs help with.
"we don't know that. maybe you can tell me what happened?"
he knew he was walking on ice, but he had to try.

"I-I did something t-that I-I r-regret..."
She had stopped studdering a bit.
She had stopped studdering a bit.
she...did something she regrets? no one should ever go through that...he would know.
"what did you do?"
"what did you do?"
"I-It was an accident...I-I d-didn't mean to do it..."
She begun to cry a bit.
She begun to cry a bit.
out of pure reaction, he scooted closer and gave the girl a hug.
"hey hey hey...whatever happened may have been bad, but it's not happening now. what didn't you mean to do?"
"hey hey hey...whatever happened may have been bad, but it's not happening now. what didn't you mean to do?"
"My 3 year old sister Piper was on the floor, trying to get up...She pulled my tail to get up...Out of reaction, I..." She shut her eyes tight and kept crying.
Shadow shook her head... "No she's not and it's my fault..." She kept crying...she had loved her sister so much...
oh....oh god....she hurt her little sister. that wasn't what he was expecting to hear. how could he help? how could he even begin to help this poor girl?
"you uh...you said you did it out of reaction. that's understandable. that happens to everyone."
he would know...
"have you told her you're sorry yet? if not, perhaps now would be a good time"
