Roman ran down a dark alleyway, gritting his teeth from the pain in his leg, which had been cut by Red and her oversized gardening tool.
In an attempt to hide, Roman looked into a abandoned building. He tried the door handle, and it opened.
Inside was dark and dusty, there was a weird smell of something burned. he sighed, pulling out his lighter and used his cane to help himself walk around. Not that bad a house, he thought just needs a month of cleaning, new furniture and a new paint job.
He came across what seemed to be the kitchen. He tilted his head, slightly confused. There was something that glinted in the fire light, and he approached the item.
It was a little bottle, filled halfway with a label that said something in a different language. Maybe it's medicine?
He heard Rubys voice, calling from outside. He growled slightly, and looked at the bottle. What harm could it do? Roman hoped it was an invisiblity potion and just drank it. Immediately regretting it as the liquid touched his tongue, he gulped and swallowed it. He gagged and coughed, the liquid tasted like burned chalk.
Bad idea. He turned and hid by the counter that the liquid was sitting on, hiding underneath the table that had a large enough gap for him to fit through if he ducked his head, which now felt very sore. He heard a squeak as the door to the building opened and a footstep was heard, Roman held his breath.
"Hello?" Ruby called out, stepping inside more. Roman felt a sharp pain in his head and he hissed in pain. Unfortunately, Ruby heard the hiss and stepped closer. "Roman?"
"No, a Unicorn!" he angrily shouted, coming out of his little hiding spot. The head ache made his patience leave completely. He saw Ruby staring a him, and he growled, "What? Never seen a red head before!?"
"it's not that!" Ruby blurted, she put her scythe down, and stepped a little closer, "it's just... I never thought... "
Roman was deeply confused, he smirked slightly, "Never thought I was so utterly handsome?" Ruby immediately scowled, "No. I never thought you were a faunus."
Roman froze, blinking. What was Red talking about? He wasn't a faunus. He was a human, he tilted his head at her, "What do you -?" he watched her reach a hand out to him he pulled back slightly when her hand brushed agenst something.
He shut his Eyes, "what the heck are you-?" he was interrupted by a low sound, finding her hand comforting and calming. Ruby began to giggle, "You purr?" she smiled as Roman's face went Red, he realised what she meant now. That drink! It makes people into faunus? Roman thought, still slightly confused. And also still purring, since Ruby was still petting him.
He leaned closer to her, "Red! " he whined, wishing she would stop, but also not wanting her to stop. "Cut it out!"
"Nope." Ruby giggled
"Red-*purrrr* A-at least show me what the heck happened to me!"
Ruby paused and pulled out a mirror. She held it up to him and let him look at himself. There on his head, pulled back and pinned to his down, were two bright ginger cat ears with white tips. He reached and touched them, and then pulled away again. "when did...?" he started, but stopped when Ruby looked behind him and started giggling.
"What now?" he groaned, his face was bright red, embarrassed by the petting and giggling of the young huntress. Behind him was another bright ginger tail with white tips! He pouted, what is cinder going to think about this?
"so," Ruby looked at Roman, "is that why you wear the hat? Because your a faunus?"
"Of course not!" Roman snapped, "I'm not a faunus! I drank this... Thing! And I think it... May have made me part Cat!"
Ruby giggled again, then tilted his head at him, "Your ears... Their pinned to your head, isn't that what cats do when they feel threatened or scared?"
Roman looked away, "how should I know?"
He felt Ruby touch his ears again, gently petting them. Roman hissed at first, but then began to purr, putting his head on her lap and curling up. "Damn... You..
Red... !" Roman growled, then shut his eyes and purred again when Ruby scratched behind his ear. "You'd make a good pet." Ruby giggled.
Roman was going to speak, but he felt something brush agenst his cheek. "don't cats like being petted here, too?" Ruby wondered aloud, and gently stroked Roman's cheek, making him blush, still purring. "R-red, really *purr* this is weird!"
Roman forced himself not to purr, when Ruby saw he stopped purring, she paused. Roman sat up, face red from embarrassment.
"Stubborn." Ruby murmured. Then a tiny smile played on her lips, "I think I know how to make you purr!"
"huh? And how are you go-" Ruby pressed her lips to Roman's, and he froze completely. She was kissing him! Loudly, Roman purred, his green eyes stayed wide open and then fluttered closed.
The end... Sorta...
Hehehe, Ruby Rose giggled as she Walked, remembering the events of the last night with Roman. After the kiss, Roman had to leave, saying Cinder may have thought he died. I'm glad I left that Human to Faunus cat potion Glynda gave me! Hehe!
Just as always, Ruby Rose's plan had worked.
