A small boy by the age of nine stood alone by an abandoned stone building. He wore a long green coat and a blue baseball hat that easily covered his eyes from others views. People walked down the busy street while cars zoomed past.

Little Ritsu stood absolutely still trying not to gain the attention of the Humans around him. Where was he? He looked around the street.

This wasn't familiar at all. Actually he didn't know anything about the Human world so of course he wouldn't know where he was. He was forbidden to even walk among humans at his young age.

The people around him started looking at him with concern.

Ritsu ignored them and continued to look for his nanny. She had said she would come back. So where was she? She'd been gone for two hours and the sun was already going down over tall buildings.

"Um…excuse me." Ritsu looked up at the woman to his right. "Are you lost?"

"No. Leave me alone." Ritsu murmured. He couldn't really open his mouth much since the human would surely see his fangs. Attention Ritsu didn't need.

He was a Felis meaning wild Cat, a powerful race living in the shadows of mankind.

The woman huffed at the rude tone and moved on.

The next hour passed and another woman and man came up to him. "Hey little guy are you lost?"

"No."

The woman blinked. "Are you sure?"

Ritsu rolled his eyes. He made his voice sound hypnotic, "Leave me alone."

The couple said nothing else as they moved on.

Ritsu was a high mage for his young age. He excited magic as if it was only breathing air. He was known for his strong control even his father praised him.

Soon it started to rain.

Distressed Ritsu pulled his hat down hoping it would somehow cover his whole body. He hated water but he didn't want to leave in case his nanny returned.

Ritsu stubbornly waited.

Where was she?

Ritsu sneezed, a delicate sound bringing the attention of everyone around him.

A man came up to him this time. "Hey, are you alone? Do you need an umbrella? I got an extra-"

Ritsu used his magic, "leave me alone." The man obeyed and left.

Ritsu groaned. Why wouldn't these humans leave him alone? Ritsu saw these humans below him. They were weak and powerless. He didn't know why his father even liked them.

His father saw courage in them, strength, and the ability to overcome anything through love.

What Ritsu saw was nothing but sorrow and pain. These humans were greedy and cold. They had such a short life spam, how could they enjoy anything in such a short time?

He was a prince of Onodera kingdom. He didn't need any humans help.

Ritsu sneezed again. The rain was falling faster and he was already soaked through. Not even his long green coat was able to fight off the rain.

"Hey…"

Ritsu rolled his eyes. Not another one.

Ritsu sneezed three times. It was getting worse. Where was his nanny?

"Are you alright?" The woman asked with concern.

"Leave me be mortal."

The woman turned and left him alone.

Soon Ritsu started to shiver. He wanted to go home. He hated the human world. Why in the heavens did his nanny needed to come here?

The streets were almost empty now; night was claiming the sky, the orange and pink colors mixing together.

Another few hours passed and no one was on the streets anymore. Everything was empty. The stars shone brightly overhead.

Ritsu shivered violently as his cold wet clothes clunged to his heated skin, luckily the rain had stopped a few minutes ago leaving the air cold and fresh. He should dry his clothes since there was no one around to witness his magic.

Ritsu closed his eyes and concentrated on his clothes-

Ritsu sneezed, his magic, now unfocused, sprayed out everywhere. It destroyed a lamppost, scraped the sidewalk, and shifted the air above him.

Ritsu blinked. He didn't mean to do that!

He was about to try it again when another sneeze attacked him.

Ritsu groaned. He couldn't perform anything without destroying something and gaining the attention of the humans.

Ritsu looked at the broken lamp post and looked around for someplace to hide it for the time being. There was an ally a few feet from him.

Ritsu went to the lamp post on the ground and easily picked it up. His kind was unnaturally strong. This was nothing to Ritsu.

He dragged it to the ally and went back to his spot. Another sneeze along with coughs shook his cold body.

He wanted to go home, to his warm bed, and clean clothes.

And food.

He hadn't eaten all day and he was starving.

Ritsu wrapped his arms around himself hoping it would help in warming him up.

He wished he was a gown man and a warrior already. That way he could have access to the amulet that lets Felis travel from their kingdom to the human world.

Sadly he was still young and only managed to learn a few martial arts. In comparison Ritsu was still a wee baby.

Another few hours passed. Ritsu looked up at a nearby street clock saying that it was two in the morning.

By this time Ritsu was shivering uncontrollably and his coughing and sneezing became constant. His body felt hot and cold at the same time and his sight was going wobbly.

Ritsu felt his legs starting to give out.

What was wrong with him? He was a Felis, he doesn't get sick, he doesn't-

Ritsu's eyes widened. An attack? He quickly checked himself; he used his magic to look into his body to detect any kind of spell to make him the way he…

Got it! A parasite! A deadly one at that. Was someone trying to kill him?

Fear ate at him. Who would do this to him? Father's enemies?

Ritsu quickly used his magic to fight against the poison. Even if he won he would be out cold in the next second. This poison was used to sneak up on their pray and drain them of their power. He would not be using magic for a few days.

Ritsu gritted his teeth as he tried not to lose consciousness as he fought the disease. He used his magic to reach through bone and cells, not leaving any spot unchecked.

Ritsu began to sweat, he almost had it…He almost had them all…

Got it.

Huffing, Ritsu looked to the ally and slowly walked toward it. If someone was trying to kill him then he needed to hide quickly. Once he got to the ally he'll hide his presence and scent so that no one, not even a Felis, could find him.

His legs gave out and he fell in a puddle. Ritsu groaned. He couldn't lose consciousness here. He had to get out of sight…

His vision is losing focus. He wouldn't make it.

Tears started to form. He just wanted to go home…

"Hey. You alright?"

Ritsu tense with fright. Who was that? It was a male's voice. Ritsu frowned. Not another human.

"Oi," His voice sounded alert now. "Don't worry; I'll take you to a doctor."

No, no, no, no, no! He couldn't…

Ritsu forced his lips to move, "No…no doctor."

There was confusion in the man's voice when he said, "What are you taking about? I'm not-"

"Please, I-scared. No doctors please."

Ritsu could hear the scowl in the man's voice as he said. "Don't be stupid." The man turned him around, picked him up, and cradled him in his arms.

Ritsu's focus was fading. He used the last of his strength, the last of his magic, to say. "Take me…to your house."

The man paused. Did it work?

"Human…I command you…take me…to…your home…"

Darkness took him.

I know, I know, what the hell am I doing writing a new story?

I couldn't help it! XD Love you guys!
