My first Story ever!~ :D I hope you like it! 3 Review Review Review! I know you're going to get really tired of me saying that.


The town of Hirukai, a beautiful very well-populated area, not many visitors though. Mostly because it's eerie rumors about the legend of cats, but those rumors were started by the villagers themselves. Well, mostly the legend of a handsome black cat. Len was what he went by on these streets. Len is a cat. Yes, a cat, but not the ones that have four legs. He has two legs, and two arms. He is a half-breed created by a wizard who was passing through town and had taken a liking to him, but that's a long story I'll tell much later. He was the first of many half-breeds such as himself, most of them like him. Living on the streets as rogue cats, having the easiest life doing things such as stealing fish, eating scraps, making their own rules but then there were many unlike him. The pampered few, the ones that got fed and had the ridiculous collar around their necks! Most cats were now half-breeds so he didn't see many full-breeds around, anymore.

"Tsk," he said staring at them, as they get petted by their masters.

Len was sitting on a rooftop were he could get a pretty high view. There were little "branches" that spread to each house, which many cats used to go to these houses and steal food. Looking at cats getting petted passes time, but it burned a deep hole in his heart. The cats betrayed their heritage! It was despicable living with those disgusting humans, who had hurt people like them. Len didn't like it not one bit. He hated all the cats that lived with the humans.

Except one...

She was a beauty. She went by the name Gumi. It was beautiful, like her. Her white fur made his skin tingle all over. He is the bravest cat on this planet, but why can't he manage to talk to this wonderful girl? This girl was the only reason he could stand looking at all the cats getting pampered, because she is one of them. That gold collar and bell around her neck made him cringe every time he saw it. He wanted to yank it right off! He can't do that if he can't even get close to her. Her. Her. Her. His mind couldn't escape the thoughts of her! Her luscious tail, her beaming smile, her amazing eyes, her-

"What're you doing?" a voice snapped him out of his thoughts.

He had unacknowledged that he had moved close to her window and put his hand on her balcony about to climb up and inside of her home. He pulled back his hand instinctively.

Dumbfounded, he pointed to his noise and asked, "Watashi?"*

She gave him a blank look, "Who else, silly?"

Len imagined her smiling at him, and his eyes glowed a bit. He has done it! He talked to the person he had been staring at for the past month. He was ecstatic, but there was no time to celebrate. He had to reply, or she's probably think he was a big weirdo. Len gulped then instantly changed his whole personality. He smirked looking at her. This was the real him, and he knew it. Putting the moves on her, he held out his hand smoothly as he leaned against the balcony rail using his cat-like balance.

"Would you like to play with me?" he asked showing off his fangs a little.

"Are you crazy?" she asked rolling her eyes.

BANG. His heart dropped a little. He shook it off and kept trying, "A cat has only got to live once, so having fun is our purpose! Come on~"

"Incorrect grammar.'A cat only has one life to live, so our purpose is to have fun.'" she corrected frowning.

BANG. BANG. His heart's dreams were cracking, "May I rip that collar off your neck? So you can become a normal cat?" he said gaining his own little attitude.

"Being a rogue cat is normal? Ha. I beg to differ!" she said giving him a glare.

What was she? She was not the princess he'd been longing her to be! Since he had laid eyes on her, she'd been a fairy tale! She's certainly not acting like one! What's with her? Why is she so against having a friend?

"Hello? Mr. Rogue?"

BANG. BANG. BANG. Len vowed to keep his cool, so he backed away from the balcony by an inch or two. "Being a rogue rocks! I get to steal my fish and chase my pigeons. All you do is walk around in a house all day! BORING! ~" he chimed grinning.

Gumi was taken back a little. Yes. He hit a soft spot. "W-Well, I get naps! I spend time with my human and get petted!" her comeback failing.

Len laughed, "I watch humans work and laugh when I steal their food! After that, I simply eat then take a nap on a rooftop. Humans stink! Why would I want to be petted by them?" he laughed a little harder when the look on her face told him she was a bit hurt.

Len felt a little bad guessing he went too far, "Look! Look! I'll let you try an apple. Have you tried an apple before?" he asked softening his expression.

Gumi looked at him and pouted a little, "No, I have not. What are they?"

He smiled really wide, "They're really juicy! Juicier than salmon! They taste sweet and have an amazing aroma."

Her look told him that she was hooked, time to reel her in! "I'll show you. So, take my hand, and jump out!" he held out his hand.

She was reaching, reaching. Just a little closer. He would make her his, for sure. An inch away- Why'd she pull back? She wanted to taste the good life, he could feel it. What was keeping her in that stupid house? He took a deeper look inside, someone entered the doorway. A blonde. A girl...a human! The thing that kept unrequited love from being requited! He'd make her forget about that human...

"Gumi, What're you doing? You could get hurt!" the human yelled, and Gumi turned pale.

He turned around and waved hiding his smile, "Looks like you're in trouble. Bye. Bye. I had fun! ~" he said in a melodic tone.

"WAIT!" He turned around hoping the human's rage at her would change her mind.

"You can back tomorrow, okay? I'll be waiting! Cat's Honor!" Gumi said smiling.

GAH. She'd used his weakness to her benefit; her smile was all it took. He chuckled and corrected, "Rogue's honor." he said with a toothy grin and went on his way thinking, I definitely won't give up, not yet!


Incoming Message from LittleMissyArisu-

Thanks for reading the first chapter~! Hope you loved it as much as I enjoyed writing it!

*I learned that in Japan when they don't know who the person is talking to they say "Watashi?" meaning, "Me?" in Japanese. Instead of pointing to their chest like we English do. They point to their nose.

Review please! Constructive criticism I will take~ I want to make this story as great as I can for the viewers! ~

Just for you who loved my title and didn't read the summary. This story is BASED off of a song, called "Ah, It's a Wonderful Cat Life!" :D All credits go to the songwriters, but I created this story using my on little twists in turns! :D In NO WAY, am I literally COPING off of the song! I know the guidelines & rules are all like, "No COPY!" similar to a stereotypical angry Japanese man. XD If I am breaking the rule in anyway. I'll happily delete this story. ;o
