recipe for disaster [carolina]

[SCARlett]

SID

Whoa.

The splotched white cat shivered.

Sid wasn't altogether sure why he was here of all places. Honestly though, he had never been the most graceful of cats. That coupled with the fact that the gorge that stretched on before him was the scariest thing he'd ever seen was a recipe for disaster. A breath of wind could probably knock him over into the abyss, and he would end up with a broken neck and a smashed face. That didn't sound pleasant.

"Hellooooo?"

A pleasant sort of echo bounded back to him, demonstrating the reflective nature of soundwaves. Of course, he knew nothing of the sort, and so, an echo was all it was to him. It was kind of fun, though.

The tomcat snickered and rose to his paws. His midsection descended in a clumsy stretch, and a yawn parted his jaws wide. The mid-day sun beamed down from a cloudless blue sky, and the rays of light falling across the predominately white cat's fur was warming him nicely and making him just a little sleepy. So, although it went against his better judgment, Sid curled up by the edge of the gorge and rested his muzzle on his crossed forepaws. With each passing breath of wind, his brown-painted right ear twitched comfortably, and with his tail wrapped lazily over his hind paws, he fell asleep.

Hey, no one ever said Sid had the greatest amount of common sense.

COMMENTS *cackles* Couldn't resist using hotpink as his text colour.

Carolina trotted alone the gorge, dangerously close. Each pawstep sent a rain of pebbles to the depths below. But she didn't notice or care. The wind ruffled her fur, threatened to push her but Carolina fought it was a grin on her small face. Suddenly, she stopped in her tracks and stared around. A strange echo was permeating through the gorge, bouncing off the river. "HI!" she threw back in return and looked around for a cat.

Eventually she found one. It was asleep. Or something. She prodded the mound of fur with one paw. "Are you alive, dude?" she asked as she continued to prod. "I ain't disposing of your body if you aren't!"
