Island

Hybrids have always been enemies of humanity, and ordinary people's hatred for them seemed to grow daily. And so it remained for an entire century, with the war between humans and hybrids continuing to this day.

Also, in villages and rather large cities, hybrid hunters appeared; they always roamed the forests, other villages, and also killed people who fertilized hybrids.

You were a cat hybrid, but not quite an ordinary one, your eyes, they were red, like blood, deep like a river, some of your relatives believed that this was a curse, ancient and irrevocable.
Wandering through the forest was your favorite pastime, you weren't afraid of hunters, you weren't afraid of anyone, because you had a rather biting character, but at the same time you knew how to take care of others and had a kind heart.

Walking once again with your soft paws through the snow that had been falling for several days, forming huge drifts, you examined the area, looking for prey in the form of field rats or even birds, but for some reason all to no avail, as if all the animals had scattered to holes and corners.

Suddenly, your paw steps on something made of fabric, and bam! You find yourself suspended in the air, in a bag with ropes, and then you immediately hear someone running straight towards you, whispering something under their breath.

• Well, finally, at least someone got caught...

A whisper is heard, clearly a man's, the bag containing you suddenly drops, and you are pulled out, but... the man's face shows disappointment and confusion. He looks about 25, young, slim, with dark circles under his eyes and slightly disheveled hair.

-cat?..oh, damn, I won't eat you for dinner, cutie.

He held you in his arms, examining you and slightly turning you from side to side to see every centimeter of your body.

-Your eyes are red, are you really a hybrid?- His fingers began to lightly stroke your soft tummy, which caused a pleasant tickling, but you tried to break free, -No, no, I'm sorry, I won't hurt you, do you want to be my friend? I will feed you and I won't be so lonely, I promise I won't give you away to anyone.
