The setting was simple.
A pale sand beach, cool waters lapping against the shore, and a sun high above in a deep blue sky. The male sitting on the granular surface of the beach was calm with a smile. His purple hair swayed in the wind, and his topaz gaze was towards the sea above.
The day was peaceful, though it was those few clouds in the distance that ruined his supposed 'clear sky'. The neko scowled. Annoying clouds.
They totally ruined his day.
Sighing, he stood, kicking the sand and scratching an ear.
His tall hat seemed to sway in tune with his every move as he walked along the beach. He had been thinking of his parents. How he missed them dearly. His father and his facinating magic tricks, and his kind hearted mother who always put a smile on his face. They seemed to be so distant now....just mere silhouettes in his mind. Zip looked to the ground, looking rather sullen as he continued on.
"What to do...." he sighed, frowning.
It would have been nice, having someone to confide in in the last few years...
Shrugging, he held his hands behind his back. He'll just have to live with being alone.

Isabella had been wandering slowly along the shore side of the beach. She held a large conch shell in her hand as she watched the water. She was close to the edge, but quickly moved if it drifted her way, hissing like a house cat. Water she didn't mind, she OCEAN SHE MINDED. She saw the figure in the distance, and it agitated her. This was her oasis away from the idiots of her race.
Her ear twitched as she picked up his sounds.

Ears perked as he heard some distant noise, and his eyes looked up towards the source. Another had ventured here? It had been quite a while since he'd last seen anyone else. He wasn't sure if it was just a mirage to trick him. He watched curiously, pausing in his stride. It took a few moments for his eyes to be able to make out the other's figure. A neko. A female neko. This was a surprise.
Here he had thought he had been abandonned here to live in isolation, but there was she. He didn't approach, but simply stood there and looked out to sea once. He didn't mind if his feet got a little wet.

As Isabella watched him, she noticed his ears perk up. Folding her arms, she smirked as she neared him. "Your the freak who was exiled right? And your still here? Deary.. This is the easiest place to escape from... " she smirked, passing him, shaking her head. She flicked her tail in his direction, annoyed at his presence.

Zipporah's ears turned so they pointed to the sides. "How would you know who I am..." he questioned, his eyes trailing her with an eerie slyness.
His tail slashed from side ot side as he snorted. "I don't recall you being in my memory."
His hair fell over an eye as he turned his head. The male neko stifled a small growl.

"I dont need to be in your memory.. I know more than you think.. It's my job to know all about the Neko race. she lashed back.

The hair on the back of his neck rose. Guess it is true, what they say. Looks could be decieving. The golden eyes that were once filled with questions were now stoney.with uncertainty.
"Everything?" he sneered, crossing his arms. "M'lady, you couldn't possibly know everything."

"Thats something you'll never know." she chided back, stopped and turning to face him. [n]"Your Zip. I'm Isabella. Ring a bell? I know everything I need to know."[/b] she smirked.

"Do you, now....." Zipporah said, his ears flicking foreward, his tail swaying low. He stepped towards her, unafraid, for the time being. She was...intimidating. Vaguely annoying, yet sharp. The neko blinked down at her as he was within a foot distance from her.
"You know nothing of me....A name, is just a title, but the person, is what matters....Isabella..."
His tail rose a little and began to swish ocassionally as he stared deeply into her eyes, his own swirling with vage temper.

She smirked and gently pushed him back with his hand. "My space.. I would rather you not invade it.." she growled. " I know your parents are either dead or far away. You loved your fathers magic tricks.. So on and so forth. Your stubborn, quite annoying, and your not around females alot.." she smirked.

His ears turned and laid back after she pushed him away, looking almost humiliated as she summed up his life story.
"I guess that's about it..." he murmured. Zip's tail lowered again, no longer swaying. He bit his lip. He shook his head and glared at her.
"That's impossible! Just a lucky guess....You can't know about me! I've been living in almost ISOLATION!"
His eyes flashed from under the rim of his hat.

"Once again, it's my job to know. " she growled. Smirking, she turned to leave. "Your just that easy to find out about."

Angered by her last comment, Zipporah pounced on her, sitting upon her stomach, an arm across her chest to prevent her from sitting up.
"Have you been watching me, then?! You cannot have asked anyone about me."
He glared at her, his tial thrashing from side to side as his ears flicked forward.

Growling, she let her teeth sink into his arm. "Get off." she growled, drawing blood as her iron grip growled. "I know these things, once again, because it's my damn job." she growled, refusing to let go.

Zipporah winced faintly as she bit him, though did not release her.
"Tell me how you know me..." he snarled, his ears turning to the sides, tail still thrashing.
His hair fell over part of his face again, hiding one of the golden eyes that seemed almost startling.

Growling, she allowed her tail to thrash angrily in his way, curling around his neck. Tighting her grip, her eyes flashed. "Let me the hell go. " she growled. She was a stubborn ass, but she had a bad attitude, and was not afraid of getting violent.

Zipporah stiffened as her tail looped about his neck, though remained pinning her.
"No." he sneered, his nose almost touching hers.
"Tell me how you know me."

"You would have a better chance if you GOT THE HELL OFF ME!" she growled, her tail tightening significantly. Her hands lashed upward, but did not go for his face or neck, instead, she rested them on his arm. Almost instantly they became cougar paws. Each individual claw went deep into his skin as she started to pull.

The male neko winced, and recoiled slighty, sliding off her as his ears turned around, flat against his skull. The only thing he knew now was that she had somehow figured out his personality. It was how, that he did not know.
He growled as he laid on the ground beside her, his eyes looking into hers.
Zip let loose a small grunt of submission, his tail however, still thrashing.
He closed his eyes for a moment, then opened them again. The golden tinge in them seemed to glimmer less as he continued to gaze into her eyes.

She growled and stood up, kicking him a good one in the side. "Your lucky. I would have slaughtered anyone else. " she spat. Her tail flicked angrily as she turned to leave. "No wonder your alone."

He flattened his ears, grabbing her foot with a smirk.
"So, why didn't you slaughter me, then?" he asked, propping himself up on his elbows.
Zipporah's tail flicked a few times as he watched her.

Yanking her foot from his grasp, she smirked. "Why would I waste my energy on someone as pathetic as you? You don't pose a threat, so I'm not going to kill you. Instincts." she smirked as she started to walk off/

Zipporah growled, the hair on the back of his neck raising again.
He stood and attempted to catch her arm, only to grab her hand instead.
This time, he had nothing to say to her.
"...." his mouth was open for some time, before he let go of her with a sigh, his ears flat against his skull again.
Hidden somewhere, in the back of his mind, he felt a strange attraction to her. It was probably from being away from people so long. Zipporah looked at her from under the rim of his hat, frowning. His tail was low as his gaze shifted to the ground.

Flicking her hand in disgust, she smirked. "What? Missing female companionship. ?" she cooed. "Sucks for you." she growled, continuing her walk.

He looked at her, eyes flashing again.
"If you're thinking that I want you to stay, you're wrong." he sneered, glaring at her.
His words hurt him on the inside, and stung like acid.
His tail lashed again, though his ears remained flat. He turned his back on her, standing with his arms crossed.
It didn't take long for her to appear in his mind's eye.
There was something vaguely aluring about her...

She kept moving. "I wasn't offering." she chuckled over her shoulder at him. She was leaving this god forsaken place.. His presence ruined all peace she had here.

The male's eyes squeezed shut for a moment, before his gaze shifted to her again.
"But....it would be nice if you did stay...." he murmured, not caring if she heard or not.
Sighing heavily, he sat on the beach, letting the tip of his tassel be wettened with every wave of water that washed up.

Sighing, she growled to herself. "I'm going to the temple, I never got to finish wrecking it. If you want to be released of your exile, I suggest you follow.." she growled, and kept moving. Stopping, she leapt up into the tree, a playful smirk on her face. "Can you keep up?"

Zip's ear flicked once, and his eyes turned to her. He raised his tail, and waved it about, shaking the water from it's tip.
A sly smirk spread across his face and he stood, following her trail of tracks in the sand towards her.
"Course I can keep up." he said, claws extending from his fingers. as he jumped into the tree beside hers.

"We'll see." and off she tore. Of course, she knew her speed was unmatchable, she left him a trail. Her claws were unique. Moving, she skidded to a stop at the temple.
