She was a bit nervous now. There was absolutely no way she could hide her identity from him. The dark gray cat didn't have much to say, and she was glad for it. Her thoughts were in a craze. _Why did I do this? I'm the most stupid person on the planet...._\n\nWhen she finally turned into the alleyway and parked the car a ways in, she got out, much to the boy's surprise.\n\n\"Here?\" he asked in surprise. He had been expecting some expensive mansion.\n\n\"No. Not here.\" She walked down the alley a ways more and lifted the iron grate up, jumping inside. \"Get your stuff and follow me.\" she called up.\n\nThe boy laid his ears back for a moment, unsure, then grabbed his stuff and hopped down with her.\n\nShe shut the grate and took some of his bags to help him, then walked down the tunnel to the door, which she unlocked, opened, and went inside. \"Shut the door when you come in.\" she called back quietly.\n\nThe boy slowly walked in and his mouth dropped open.\n\nWhitefire looked back and rolled her eyes a bit. \"Shut your mouth before you flood the place.\"\n\nDiamn snapped his mouth shut and drug the rest of his stuff in. \"Uh... where do I put my stuff?\" He was still a bit awe-struck.\n\n\"Down the hallway, second room to the left. My room is the first one. Please stay out.\" She went to the kitchen to make some ham sandwiches, leaving Diamn to walk around and gawk at everything as he went to his room.\n\nWhen she came out with a plate of sandwiches, Diamn was already back in the living-room, looking around. She set the plates down on the coffee table. \"You hungry?\"\n\nDiamn turned to her and looked at her suspiciously. His green eyes narrowed. \"Who are you?\"\n\nWhitefire returned his narrowed gaze. \"I'm sure you can figure it out.\" She left the room for a moment. \"Eat if you like. I promise it's not poisoned or anything.\" She stood in front of the mirror in the bathroom and carefully took the contacts out of her eyes, returning her eyes back to their normal color.\n\nShe came out again and Diamn's eyes widened as she handed his sunglasses to him. \"I think these are yours.\"\n\nHe put down the sandwich he'd started eating and took the glasses, silent for a moment. Then he looked up at her, anger in his green eyes. \"So, I've been illegally adopted by an outlaw?\"\n\nShe kept her gaze calm. \"Looks like it.\"\n\nThe dark gray cat growled. \"Why?\"\n\n\"I felt bad.\"\n\nHe snarled quietly. \"Why would you even care about what happened?\"\n\nShe stared him down for a moment before answering. \"Aseo had been sent to kill me.\"\n\nDiamn's eyes widened. \"What?\" Then he frowned. \"Quit lying to me.\"\n\n\"I'm not. Get a clue, kid. Think about it for a second.\" She plopped herself down on the couch and grabbed a sandwich.\n\nDiamn was suddenly stiff. \"Wait, so... you k....killed him?\"\n\n\"Yes, I did. And if anyone else tries to find me I'll get rid of them, too.\"\n\nHe backed off a little. \"Are you going to... you know...\"\n\nShe chuckled. \"Kill you? No. I really did adopt you for the sake of adopting you.\"\n\nDiamn let out a breath he'd been holding, relieved, but started to tear up as he looked at her.\n\n\"You understand my situation, don't you?\" Whitefire said briskly. \"He'd been hired to kill me. I had to kill him first.\"\n\n\"I just...\" The young cat began to cry. \"I know he wasn't my real father but...I can't believe he's dead.\" The tears began to flow and he curled up on the couch, crying next to Aseo's killer.\n\nWhitefire rolled her eyes a bit. She grabbed a bottle of wine off of the coffee table and gave it to him. \"Here. Cry me a river.\" Then she stood up and walked out of the room.  \n  \n\n","series":{"name":"Oh So Tragic","previous":"https://fse.anthro.fr/stories/693211-oh-so-tragic-part-8.json"}}
