 ^{(it's beta!)}

I lay on the street, shivering. Around various others were in similar states, while the rest were probably sleeping. A rustling to the left drew my attention, and I saw three bodies rise, padding over to where I lay and curling up beside me, warming me with their body heat. I sighed, contentedly nuzzling into.... Gunther? In my haze I couldn't tell. Out of the corner of my drooping eyelids I saw more movement, and eventually we were all one big cluster. The pack takes care of its own- the thought filled me with pride. There was a grunt from beside me, and the body shifted slightly. Definitely Gunther. The soft purring like noises from my other side told me Kat was close by as well. She was the shortest of us all, and didn't look like much with her cropped hair and light green eyes, but Kat was one our best fighters, commanding respect even though she'd only been here a few moons. She usually kept to herself though, and was often overlooked- not that she seemed to mind much. Gunther was the complete opposite. He was huge and deadly looking, though was really friendly if you knew him. Like a big teddy bear. I grinned to myself. Still, he was invaluable in a fight... and he makes a great pillow, I thought sleepily, drifting off as my senses were crowded by drowsiness.
