Eponine
Days were getting shorter and colder in London. That usually meant winter and snow. A petite patched female shivered in an old cardboard box. She only had rags to keep her warm. Curled up, she did not look like much. Tiny, weak. Unfurled, she was a beautiful Buxom princess. Her wits tended to baffle the local street hustlers. What they also could not understand was why was she alone, no family here. She was also foreign to them. The princess was from France. Because of her skill, most the hustlers would look out for her, they respected her. Some even treated her like their own family. She was sweet, kind to everyone. Especially kittens. Whenever she saw a male kitten, her face tended to look very sad. Like she missed someone dearly. Regretting that she was no longer with them. Eponine pulled the rags tighter to her as the wind blew through the alley. One day she dreamed this would all be a bitter memory.

as the large tom moved away from the alley where he had been talking with Jerr Rumpus and the rest,
on impulse he stopped by the dumpster where he had found the fish and grabbed another and a torn blanket that was in it as well.
then he began to follow that odd urging behind his ears that told him 'you need to be HERE!', it took
him down alleys and side streets till he came to an old cardboard box.
"hello? anyone here?" he called.

Eponine
The young princesses eyes snapped open. She jumped and darted out of the box. The skinny looking shadow opened up to a buxom petite princess. The white, gray and black patched female remembered the biting cold and instinctively wrapped her arms around her waist. She looked up to see a large tom. She was cold, tired and hungry, she was hardly in any state to defend herself.
"What do you want?" She shivered. She made sure to keep the cardboard box between her and the strange tom.

the massive slate gray tom, shuffled a paw bashfully, then he shrugged and held out the blanket and the fish. "these are for you I guess, unless there's someone else in there that needs 'em more,"
he said simply. "found 'em in a dumpster a ways back, an any way there for you!"

Eponine
The buxom princess gave the tom a guarded look. She made no effort to move towards him. This could be a trap.
"Why would you want to help me...who are you?"
She asked wrapping her arms around herself. These were the streets of London and not neccessarily the nice part either. Queens and princesses were always getting taken advantage of and worse. Daylight, Eponine was a bit more free to move around. Others looked after her, but night time, everyone slunk back to their safe havens. The princess did not have a safe haven except for what she found. Tonight it was a cardboard box.

the massive tom shrugged again "as to who I am names Manfredd, though I'll answer to Manny, you there, big lunk or just about anything." he replied. the he paused to scratch behind an ear,
"as to why... when I'm on the clock the folk I work for...well some of the things the have me do just arn't very nice, so when I'm on my own time I try to even things out you know?" he said then he gave a bashful tilt to his head. "that and sometimes, sometimes I get this kinda feeling that I need to be somewhere and when I follow it things turn that yeah I was needed there." he said quietly.
then he gave a quirked smile, "and no I'm not asking for anyhtin back!"

Eponine
The dark calico princess giggled behind a white paw as he introduce himself. He was funny. He seemed friendly enough. She ducked out of her cardboard box and stood. She was not very tall, but she was well shaped for her age. She tossed her long mane behind her shoulder.
"Well it is nice to meet you Manny, I don't feel as afraid as before....its just that...well by yourself, at night, its a bit scary." She admitted. She walked a little closer.
"My name is Eponine" She introduced herself.

"Epieonie..Eppoine...Eppyy..well it's a pretty name anyway!" he said. then he gave a shrug "and yeah I get that I can be kinda scarry lookin, go's with the job, but a pretty thing like yourself should be careful." carefully he broke the piece of fish into several sections and took one and popped it into his mouth before offering the rest to Eponine. "I like Dawn, comes too early but where I usually work nights it means that I'm done and things are starting fresh." Manfredd said his as his ears gave a bashful dip.
