Queerious could not manage to get to sleep, too many thoughts were on his mind, and he had to sort them out. He thought that the best place to think, and be alone would be the astronomy tower, expecially at this time of night. As he made his way to the tallest tower of his new home, he hummed a quiet tune, one that seemed to be familiar, but he couldn't place a name. When he blinked, a flash of his mother tucking him in to bed, came to mind, "That's it!" he said.
The tune was the song his mother would sing to him before he went to bed, but that was many years ago, before her death. Queerious took a deep breath, his heart feeling suddenly heavy, he never used to be able to mourn his mothers death, infact he never really was allowed to have emotion, but now he could; it was a new thing for him. His eyes grew a bit swollen, but soon enough he was OK again, and he had reached the top of the tower.
Looking into the stars, he could see the faces of his family, one in particular, his sister, who he hoped was still alive out there. Before long, other thoughts crossed his mind, everything was so over-whelming for him, No you can't care for another, look, you are upset about your family, what will happen when she is gone? What will you do then, you have to protect yourself. Queerious thought to himself, but that wasn't what he wanted, he wanted to care and love, and feel, but what would happen?
Yawninng, he stared out to the stars, trying to sort out what he was thinking, he needed to make some decisions. Soon enough, he wasn't aware of his surroundings, he was so lost in thought.

Niko was wide-awake, but he had no clue why. He felt like going up to the astronomy tower, to look at the beautiful stars. Once arriving he saw a boy, who he reconized from his friends funeral. He had yet to find out the boys name, but he could tell one thing, he was troubled.
Not trying to bother him, Niko was about to take a seat on the floor, but he fell to the ground with a thud, "Oops, I am such a clutz." he said weakly, as he stood up, maybe the boy was too deep in thought to realize that someone had just fallen behind him.

Queerious' head turned around quickly, as he snapped back in reality, he 'scratched' his head, trying to look casual, and smiled, "Hey."
"You need help there?" he said, offering his hand to help the familiar person up, "Do I know you?"
Queerious recgonized the person, but couldn't put a name to the face, he was puzzled as from where he knew this person, and why the person had chosen to come up to the astronom tower, at this time of night.

Ondrea was on her usual walk up to the astronomy tower, where she would go to get her thoughts straight. To her surprise, the astronomy tower was occupied, and by the looks of it, the people who were in it, she knew.
"Queerious?" Ondrea looked at the other, "Aren't you Niko?"
Ondrea took a seat on the floor, "What brings you two up here this late at night? I am the only one up here at this time."

"Hi." he responded, taking Queerious' hand, and standing up again, "Yah, from the funeral." he replied, gloomily.
Turning around, he saw a girl, who he also saw at the funeral, "Yes I am Niko, you are Ondrea, am I right?" he said, "I couldn't get to sleep, and I enjoy looking at the stars, so why not come up here?"

Ondrea lookedat Niko as she was sitting on the ground, "Yep, I am Ondrea, last time I saw you was at that terrible, supposed to be, funeral." she said quietly, "I guess that makes sense that you would be up here then." she said, knowing perfectly well that it made sense.
"So hows it going?"
Just then, Ondreas' cat Shadow went shooting over to her, and landed on her lap, "Pointing at the entrance of the astronomy tower, Shadow muttered, "I-it, It bit me! Hide me before it comes back!" he cried, as he trembled in her lap.
"What bit you Shadow?! Don't worry you will be safe with us." she said in a not-so worried voice.

"It going good." replied niko "How are you Ondrea?" Niko looked at the tower's entrance and his running cat Snowy appeared out of the entrance and ran after Shadow. "Snowy!Bad girl!"Niko spoke as he grabed Snowy.
Looking at Niko she spoke in her mind, and only Queerious could hear her, "I can' t help it Shadow tastes good." Snowy snickered.
"Don't bother me again!" Snowy yelled in cat language to Shadow, but all the humans could hear was hissing and meowing.

Querious stood in the astronomy tower mute, he was quite amazed by Ondreas' talking cat, and now Nikos' cat that seemed to be carrying on a convertsation with Shadow and his owner.
"Well that was all very interesting." he said plainly looking at Shadow then at Snowy.

"Yeah, Snowy gets that way sometimes." Niko said, picking up his cat, "Just get a long won't you?"
Snowy stuck her nose in the air, and out on a pouty face, "I don't like him." she said, to Niko, in her mind.
Niko nodded. "Just try to." he said, and then looking up at the two people in the room, he said, "She can talk, but just to me." just to make sure they didn't find him strange.

Niko sat down peting his cat and Snowy purred.
