Default Re: Hades home ( open to all)

After Hades had left to speak with the intruder, Cress heard a faint rustling. She glanced up from her spot in the graveyard to spot a flash of white up in the bell tower. She chuckled under her breath knowing who it was- Osirus, a tom just as malicious as Hades. Focusing her gaze on her brother, who seemed preoccupied with discussing something or other with Nightmare, the female decided to slip off and browse through the graveyard by herself. The molly had no interest in socializing with anyone at the moment, focused only on adding to her gruesome collection of trophies that decorated her nest. Spotting a bright blue collar, she trotted over and nipped gently at it to separate it from the former kittypet, the tags jingling delightfully as she pulled it away. Shaking off the clumps of fur left on the bright blue ribbon, she draped it over her back and continued by checking the claws and teeth left on the body. Extracting them carefully (and subsequently spitting every now and again because of the vile taste) she managed to extract all of the healthy, non-cracked claws and teeth and pile them together on a piece of fabric nearby. Picking it up by the corners, the gruesome feline trotted out of the graveyard to the small stream nearby so she could clean off the trophies she had acquired. She still remembered killing the feline for flirting with her; only one tom could claim her heart and it wouldn't be a soft kittypet. Dipping the collar into the slowly flowing stream, she watched as the congealed blood was tugged off by the water as well as the rocks below which she dragged it across. Tossing the now clean ribbon onto the bank, she grabbed the makeshift bag and dipped it into the stream near a pool of water so that the teeth wouldn't be tugged away by the current.

Finishing up her task, Cress picked up the bag and collar and headed back to the house. Ducking under a couple of broken beams, she made her way to her nest, hidden from the eyes of everyone and secured in the windowsill of a cloudy stained-glass window. She placed the teeth neatly in a row, organizing them by length on one of the makeshift shelves and adding to the line of pearly whites. Her newfound collar, on the other paw, was woven into her nest to provide a soft material with the tags taken off and strung up over the nest. She smiled at her work and curled up into the nest just under a beam of sunlight gleaming through the window. Here she would doze off for as long as needed without being disturbed by anyone... except for a small bundle of fur that woke up as soon as she curled up around it. The little kitten, who had been kidnapped from her true family and was taken to be raised by Cress and Hades (since Cress couldn't have children of her own) raised her head and let out a sleepy mew of confusion at the sudden warmth beside her. Cress purred and ran her tongue gently over the kitten's head to sooth the little fluffy ball of fur. "There, there. Mummy's here." Cress murmured softly.

The kitten, who had been named Shadow for her dark fur, blinked open her beautiful blue eyes to gaze up at Cress. She pulled herself up and placed her paws gently on Cress' nose, purring and nuzzling her adoptive mother happily. "Hello, Momma." Shadow squeaked, climbing onto the top of Cress' head and dangling her two front paws in front of her eyes. "Is there new people?" She asked, having already scented the presence of several new cats. Today would be an interesting day if none of them died.

Cress chuckled and raised her gaze to look up at the kit. "Yes, darling. My brother came to visit and apparently a few cats want to join us!" She smiled happily. "You will have a lot of friends soon."
