Tori Vega and Andre Harris walked down the hallways of Hollywood Arts High School. They spotted Jade West and Beck Oliver and went over to say hello. "Hey, guys," Tori greeted warmly.
"Hey," Beck greeted.
"You have a booger dangling from your pointy nose," Jade randomly pointed out, glaring at Tori with those usual dark eyes.
Tori made a face and rubbed her nose. "Is it… gone?"
"There wasn't one there, Jade's just being… Jade," Beck explained.
"I want some juice," said Jade.
Beck shrugged. "Then go get some."
Jade sighed. "Ugh, fine. But you're coming." She grabbed his hand and pulled him away with unwomanlike force.
Tori raised an eyebrow. "I'll never understand her."
Andre shook his head. "Me neither."
"Hey, guys!" Cat Valentine chirped as she pranced over to Andre and Tori. "Look!" She held up a small black kitten.
"Awe!" Tori exclaimed. "Where'd you get it?" She scratched behind the kitten's ears.
"I found her behind the hospital," Cat replied. "She was playing in a pile of needles."
Tori and Andre backed away. "That's... nice," said Andre as nicely as he could. "Why'd you pick it up? It could have what those needles had."
Cat's eyes widened. "Oh, my gosh! You're right! Well, what do I do with her?"
Tori smirked. "I know." She looked around and ran to her locker. She returned with a pair of gloves. After putting them on, she said, "Give me the cat."
"Kaykay." Cat smiled and handed Tori the purring bundle of fur. Tori waltzed over to Beck and Jade. "A present from Cat!" Tori exclaimed, handing Jade the kitten.
"Wow, a cat from Cat," said Beck.
Jade smiled. "Wow... I've always wanted a kitten." She cuddled it closely, rubbing its fur all over her cheek. Her eyes widened and she suddenly dropped it in the trashcan.
Tori made a face. "Jade! Why did you do that?"
Jade shrugged. "I don't do cute and innocent. Plus I smelled some sort of medication and/or acid."
Tori raised an eyebrow. "Okay…" She walked back over to her friends.
"Why'd Jade drop the kitten in the trashcan?" Andre asked.
"She smelled something," Tori replied. "It's too bad. I kinda wanted to drop a match on it while she was holding it just to see what it'd do."
Cat's eyes widened. "What? !"
"Kidding!" Tori said quickly.
Cat's panicked look turned back to happiness. "Oh, okay."
"Hey, we should really go get that cat," Andre stated. "That's cruel."
"Yeah," Cat agreed.
"Come on." Tori led the way over to the trashcan. She pushed open the lid and reached inside and pulled out the kitten, who was unnaturally calm.
Andre rubbed its back. "Should we keep her?"
"I don't know," Tori replied. "But… oh, what the heck?"
"Yaye!" Cat cooed, taking the cat. "I'm gonna go wash off her toxic waste, and then we can go to Tori's house and play with her!" Cat pranced off to the bathroom.
"That girl and her cats," said Andre.
Tori nodded. "I know, right?"
A/N: Okay, soooooo I know it's short, but the chapters SHOULD get fairly longer as we go. I've never done a Victorious fic before, but I just felt inspired. All reviews appreciated!:D
