A black cat wandered around the street, it is dark and trash cans stood uniform beside the large brick walls. A dumpster could clearly be seen beside the large metal trash cans, dozens of cats could be seen as they rummaged through the trash cans for whatever scraps of food they could find. The black cat just stood there staring at its kind as though they are alien, soon, it went off from the long pathway of trash cans towards the open street where cars passed by and people walked as their heads were buried in their mobile phones. It is a noisy street as cars honk and people spoke loudly.
The black cat sat there just to look around, it could see the busy fingers of people as their tapped and typed their way on the mobile phone, it could also see the tired faces of people in the car, some faces looked redder as they shouted at one another from a far. Somehow the black cat felt as though it understood the emotions of the people it watched, unlike its fellow kind where they only survive from the trash from the people.
Suddenly, an old woman saw the black cat and stopped to which she smiled and gestured toward the black cat to follow her. The black cat walked towards the old woman and they both walked slowly down the pathway, it took a long time as the old woman leaned on the cane as she walked, she kept glancing at the black cat and smiled. Soon, they reached an antique shop, it had all sorts of furniture and small trinkets. The old woman opened the door for the black cat to enter to which it did. It peered around the shop, all sorts of furniture were placed in the shop, it had a strange desire to jump up on it but resisted and followed the old woman.
The old woman stopped and put a necklace with a green gem on it on the ground to which the black cat is able to reach it. The black cat was unsure what to do but it placed its paw on it when suddenly, it could feel its bones being enlarged and it could feel itself become taller. The black cat transformed into a woman, she looked at hands before dashing towards a nearby mirror to take a look at herself. Suddenly, the memories flooded her mind, she had visions of an old lady and her mouth opened as though speaking to her saying words like 'cursed' and 'witch'. What had happened?
