I own nothing but my OCs
Chapter 1
Anna
I sighed happily as I walked home, grinning when snow fell onto my face. I absolutely love the winter time, and I LOVE snow! It's so delicate and pretty, completely the opposite of me. My grin deflated some, remembering earlier today, but I shook off the dark thoughts, instead focusing on the loud bass of my music.
As I walked past the curb on my street, I heard a noise through my earbuds. Frowning, I took one out and listened again. I heard a faint meowing and looked towards the box sitting on the curb. I nibbled on my lip, debating whether or not I should check, before my curiosity got the better of me.
I slowly walked over towards the box, crossing the street, and jumped when I heard the honk of a horn. I glared at the asshole who honked at me and quickly crossed the street. As the meowing became more persistent, along with a few hisses, I hurried over towards the box. I looked inside and blinked when I saw six cats sitting there.
Two were in the corner, one black and one a dark navy blue. One cat, a bright red, was bothering the black one next to the navy blue one, who seemed to be hissing at a blonde cat next to another black one, and a grey cat was sitting on the other corner, meowing to itself.
It was weird, but they were still out here in the cold and I felt a wave of protectiveness flare up. I sneezed when a snowflake fell on my nose and all the cats immediately turned towards me. I blinked when they all backed away slightly, well except the grey cat and the two black ones, who just stared at me. I gave them, what I hoped to be, a friendly smile.
"Hey, I-I'm not gonna hurt ya." I said calmly as I began looking around. No one was around, and it looked like they were just abandoned. I bit my lip, thinking, before looking at them.
"Would you like to come home with me?" I asked. They all blinked before they began meowing to each other. I giggled quietly because it looked like they were actually talking to each other.
After a moment, they looked back towards me. The dark navy blue one meowed, and I took that as a yes. I took off my jacket and laid it on top of the box. I was fine since I was wearing a black turtleneck, and it was about 50 or so degrees outside. I wrapped up my earbuds and stuffed my phone into my pocket before rolling up my sleeves slightly.
"Alrighty then." I muttered as I crouched down, balancing on my feet as I got a good enough grip on the box. I grunted as I picked it up and slowly rose to my feet. I took a breath before turning around and continued on walking towards home.
I sighed as I finally made it home. I groaned when I realized that I forgot my keys inside. I set the box on the ground and lifted the jacket to see what was happening. Most of the cats were asleep, except for the two black ones and the grey one. I nodded to myself and put the jacket down before knocking on the door. 'Hopefully Robin is home. Raven would just have a fit.' I thought as the door opened.
My hopes were dashed when Raven's glaring blue eyes met my own brown ones. She opened her mouth to say something, but I shushed her and quickly picked up the box, before hurrying inside.
"What are you carrying?" She said annoyedly. I took in a breath before answering in a small voice.
"A box full of cats…" There was a moment of silence while I removed the jacket and shook it off. I pulled out the cats one at a time and set them on the rug we had.
"YOU WHAT?!" Raven shouted, startling the cats on the floor. I turned around and clamped a hand over her mouth, glaring into her eyes as I pointed towards them. She looked over and her eyes widened when she saw how many I brought in. She gave me another glare as she roughly grabbed my hand off her mouth and pulled me into the living room.
Third Person
As the two women walked away, the cats began to speak amongst themselves. The first black one, or Sebastian, was the first one to speak.
"Young master? Are you alright?" He meowed as he checked over Ciel. Ciel huffed before nodding.
"Yes, but where are we?" He asked, looking around at the small house they were currently in.
"I'm not entirely sure, but possibly somewhere in America, based of the two ladies' accents." He said as he too, looked around. Before he could say anymore, the red cat, Grell, ran towards him screaming, or meowing, "Bassy!" Sebastian moved away and Grell crashed into the wall behind him. He groaned as the blonde cat, Alois, started laughing, or meowing. Ah, well, you get the picture.
"Hahaha! What an idiot!" He said as he sat there next to the second black cat, Claude. The grey one, Undertaker, started laughing too, but that was quickly cut off when yells were heard.
"Anna! How can you be so selfish!" The cats all jumped at the loud voice and they all decided to what what was going on, so they walked towards the voices.
"Oh give it a rest Raven! You know as well as I do Robin loves cats!" The young woman who found them, Anna, said rolling her eyes as she leaned against the wall with her arms crossed. The other one, Raven, just shook her head angrily.
"You know that's not what I meant!" She stated as she walked closer to Anna, looming over her small frame. Anna scoffed, glaring up at her.
"No, I know exactly what you meant. You think we don't have enough money to take care of these cats? Look Raven, we may not be rich, but we sure as hell ain't poor! Besides, I found a new job." Raven flinched as her face paled. Anna winced and ran a hand through the left side of her hair.
"Look, Rave, you and Robin don't have to worry about a thing! I can take care of the food, collars, vet checkups and whatever else they need with the money I get!" Anna replied as she plastered a smile to her face. Raven's face had lost all her color as she stared at Anna.
"You're new job...it wouldn't have anything to do with the recent-" Anna cut her off, a blank mask placed over her features.
"Raven, don't ask questions you know you don't want the answers to." She said flatly as she stared at Raven, daring her to say something else. Raven gulped and took a shuddering breath. Anna's face lost the blank mask, and was replaced with a comforting look.
"Hey now, you know I'm always careful. I don't do jobs that I can't handle, that's the way it's always been Rave." She said as she patted Raven's shoulder comfortingly. Raven sighed, her body losing all the tension it previously had and she sat down heavily in a chair. Anna laughed slightly and turned towards the doorway, only to find all six cats staring at her with interest.
Anna
I grinned at the six cats.
"Hey guys! C'mon, come meet Raven!" I said, calling them over. They all looked at each other before walking towards her. I turned back to Raven and saw her staring at them in interest. I smirked to myself as I saw her watch the black cat with the golden eyes more than anything. 'Good. She's already gotten attached.'
I thought as I picked up the nearest cat to me, which was the black one with red eyes. He (at least I think it's a he) blinked up at me before looking down at the navy blue one who meowed. I giggled because it was almost as if the blue one was scolding the one in my arms. I set him back down when my phone buzzed and my good mood instantly plummeted.
My face turned blank as I picked up my phone and walked into the hallway. I felt two pairs of eyes burn into my back, but I ignored them. I unwrapped my earbuds and stuck one in with a mic, placing my phone in my pocket before picking up the call.
"Hello." I said coolly, waiting for a reply.
"Good evening La Negra Loba." A smooth voice replied. I tensed at the name and almost growled out in anger, almost.
"What do you need." I demanded, a harsh note in my voice. I jumped slightly when I felt something brush my leg, and saw the red-eyed cat looking up at me. I gave a small smile, but that vanished when the spoke again.
"Oh, nothing. Just checking up on my favorite worker. Did you enjoy your last job? I bet you did, it was your favorite type, hmm? I made sure to assign that to you, my little wolf." This time, I couldn't hold in my snarl of anger as I dug my nails into my balled up fists. The man laughed on the other end and I immediately hung up. I grit my teeth as I remembered his laugh and disgusting words as I slowly slid down to the floor.
"I fucking hate that bastard." I muttered darkly as I tried to control my breathing. I opened my fists when I felt sharps stings on my hands. I sighed when five crescents across both of my palms, leaking crimson liquid, filled my vision. I let my arms fall limp as I tilted my head back and sighed heavily. I jumped when I felt something wet and warm on my hands.
I looked down and saw the red-eyed cat licking up the blood on my hand. It must have been a trick of the light or something...but I swear I saw his (still guessing) eyes turn a glowing magenta. After cleaning up one hand, he looked at me expectantly. I blinked before I raised my other hand while raising an eyebrow. The cat nodded and I gave him my hand, still wondering why this was even happening. He licked up the blood and meowed.
I laughed and picked him up. I probably should've done this first, but I checked to see if he was actually a he. He was and I walked back into the living room. Raven was playing with the blonde one with a childlike smile on her face as the other black one watched them. The red one was nowhere to be found, the grey one was sitting on the couch and the navy blue one was sitting on the floor. He (guessing again) looked over at us when we walked in and meowed.
The one in my arms looked at me and I set him down. He sauntered over to the navy blue one and Raven looked at me.
"So," She started as she scratched behind the blonde cat's ears.
"Which ones are you taking?" I blinked.
"Huh?"
So, here's another fanfic idea that I came up with over my month hiatus. I don'r really have much to say about this, updates...whenever I can really. This is more of a side project more than anything. So, I'll see you guys next chapter then!
