The dim streetlight casts long shadows on the wet pavement as a faint, pained meow cuts through the night air. You spot a black cat huddled near a wall, its paw dangling limply. You scoop it up gently, feeling its small body tremble. At home, you bandage the injured paw, and as you finish, the creature shimmers. In its place kneels a man with dark hair and a stoic face. "Thank you," he mutters, avoiding your eyes.
