Reality

Standard

Shadow stepped off the stage carrying all the flowers thrown on stage, the flowers hid her face from the crowd, who were now singing the chorus to her hit song, “Space War.” Tears rolled down her furry face. She was so happy people liked her for her music and morals.

“You’re my lover,

You’re my space cowboy,

Blast my soul,

Save me from this space war, ”

Gun blasts were heard in the background. Shadow looked up and realized she was in a gun turret fighting the Shadow Cat Warriors. Shadow had checked out for a few minutes as the pressure and fear of the Shadow Cat Warriors seeking to kill her became too much for her. She awakened from her daydream that she was a famous pop star. And now was faced with reality – she was in a war with the Shadow Cat Warriors, fighting for her life.

She pulled on the trigger, bullets rang out from the gun turret. The Shadow Cat Warriors were moving in on her fast wave after wave. She began to think she would not survive their onslaught. Captain Cattitude came with backup to help tackle the Shadow Cat Warrior’s intense onslaught of anger and intent to kill her. Her fur began to rise and become electric as her anger and fear grew. Her fur looked like she was in a Cookie Monter jacket. Captain Cattitude’s backup came just in time. He was able to weaken the waves of Shadow Cat Warriors and give Shadow a break in the fight.

Captain Cattitude came up to Shadow when the battle was becoming under control by the defensive action of Shadow’s fighting for her safety.

“I have something important to tell you,” said Captain Cattitude. “I don’t know how else to say this but to come right out and say it,” said Captain Cattitude. It was obviously Captain Cattitude was struggling with what he had to tell Shadow. Shadow looked at him, “Relax. I can handle whatever you have to say,” said a somewhat nervous Shadow. “Okay, here goes…,” said Captain Cattitude. He took hold of Shadow’s paw and looked directly into her green eyes, “You have a brother, and he wants to join you in your fight to save planet Earth.” “What! “I don’t have a brother.” “What are you talking about,” said a shocked Shadow. “Apparently, John, your owner, adopted a kitten named Rocky.” “Rocky discovered the locked door to your communication device. He sent a message to you,” said Captain Cattitude…

Intro to Rocky

Standard
Rocky the Rockster

When Shadow left her owner to deal with her fate and the Shadow Cat Warrior threat, John decided he needed another cat to keep him company. He went to the nearest feline rescue center and found a kitten alone in a cage with his big, green eyes staring blankly into the far distance. He seemed to be deep in meditation. John took one look at the kitten and fell ins love with the kitten’s black and grey tabby fur coat wrapped around the kitten’s trim body.

John said hello to the scared kitten that was to soon to become known as Rocky. Rocky turned his head from his deep state of daydreaming to the noise he heard. When Rocky saw John, Rocky immediately walked toward John, purring until he reached John’s outreached hand in the cage. “Hi buddy,” said John to Rocky. Rocky responded by flipping over on his back, looking for a tummy rub. John complied. He had already fallen in love with Rocky. He knew Rocky would be his new companion through life’s ups and downs. That day, Rocky was adopted by John. John didn’t know what the reader knew, but it was going to be a co-dependent relationship between John and Rocky.

When Rocky turned six months, he began to ask John about the pictures of Shadow strewn about the house. “Who is that?” Rocky said. “She’s so beautiful,” Rocky said. “That is your sister, Shadow. She is off deep in space fighting for our planet against the Shadow Cat Warriors from Catmoon. Rocky didn’t know who Shadow was, but he was impressed she was fighting for Earth’s future. He made up his mind in that second that he would join the fight for Earth’s freedom and fight along with his sister to bring an end to the Shadow Cat Warriors.
