An isolated cell must be paired in the x and y-direction

Can anybody make an automata so that the closest lit cell to an isolated lit cell moves to pair in the x-direction (one of the cells directly to the left or right of that cell) and y-direction (one of the cells directly up or down of that cell) of the isolated cell. That is, if there is a single isolated cell some distance from a cloud of randomly lit cells, the closest lit cell in the cloud moves towards the isolated cell (and the isolated cell moves towards that cell as well, like gravity). But as the closest one in the large cloud moves, the other ones in the cloud would pair that one in the x-direction and y-direction (not diagonal) of that moving cell, so that the entire cloud would tend to move towards the isolated lit cell. And all the cells in the cloud would move to the closest isolated cell in the cloud, or on the boundary of that cloud, they would move to isolated cells some distance from the cloud.
I'm wondering if there are several large squares of mostly lit cells, with narrow boundary running between the squares, so you have a larger grid, the squares themselves would act like diffusion, while balls of lit squares would appear at the four corners of 4 large squares, then the ball would begin to gyrate, because there is competition on where it would move to pair another ball in the left or right direction at another crossing, and a smaller ball would shoot out, say in the left direction. Also, as the larger ball disintegrates, it would form a boundary of two moving rows of teeth in that example (the x-direction), with the ball just touching the teeth and being propelled along. Also the teeth would change shape a bit as the two rows of teeth move past each other. That's a triangular billiard ball, and since the two rows are moving and the teeth are changing shape, it may be a quantum circuit.
