"Maka, don't let her get away!"

Soul, the newest Death Scythe, yelled at his meister, Maka, to run faster after the witch they were chasing. The witch had just claimed another human soul and was hoping to get a fast getaway, but this cat-powered witch didn't have much luck tonight.

"Mrow-ha-ha-ha-ow~! You can't catch this kitty!" the witch taunted, jumping from roof to roof in hopes of losing her attackers.

Both Maka and Soul yelled at the witch to 'shut up' at the same time, the young meisters anger and frustration making her faster, so she raised her scythe and partner for the killer hit. But, in a last effort, the witch cast a spell on Maka. A sudden 'POOF' could be heard, and dust, covering whatever had happened.

Soul's P.O.V.

Soul coughed, having changed back into his human form. "Maka? Maka, you okay?" He looked around as the dust started to settle, fearing he'd let his best friend down, again, by not protecting her. "Maka answer me!"

His pleading was answered only by a soft mew below him. A ashy blond cat with heart-melting green eyes was looking up at the weapon. Soul looked down at her, Please tell me that's not... "Maka? That's you?" he said with a fake smile.

The cat mewed again, then nodded.

"..." The weapon's smile faded. He picked Maka up, and sighed. "This isn't going to end well..."

Maka hissed in agreement.

(Later, at Stein's lab)

"Sooo... How is she?" Soul asked the older technician.

"Do you want the good news or the bad news first?"

The weapon boy blinked, There's good and bad news? "Uh, good?"

Stein nodded, "Maka should be back to normal in a few weeks. A month or two at most."

"Okay. That is pretty good news... So the bad is?"

"She's going to have amnesia for a long time after returning back to normal. She might not even remember your name, or her own for all I know." The older man shrugged. "And don't feed her any cat food, or she'll have a taste for it later on." With that Stein handed Maka to Soul and pushed them out of his lab.

The weapon boy sighed, looking at his formar meister in his hands. How am I going to take care of you? I don't know anything about taking care of animals! Bowing his head, he started walking back to his, and currently only his, apartment.

"SOUL-KUN, WHY DO YOU HAVE A KITTEN WITH YOU!?" Blair shouted at him as he walked in.

"Blair... Calm down... This is Maka, she got turned into a cat by a witch. No one's replacing you. Stop shouting already, that isn't cool." Soul rolled his eyes at Blair's pouting lip, and set Maka down.

Blair transformed back into her cat form and walked up to Maka. "Mew? Maka you're a cat like me now~!" She jumped up and down in excitement.

Maka just 'mewed' in reply. Then started to wonder the apartment.

Blair looked back at Soul. "Is she stuck like this? Because I don't like how quite Maka-chun is..." she pouted again.

The weapon shook his head, "Only for a month or two. Say, Blair, do you know anything about taking care of Cat-Human-People? 'Cus I don't."

Transforming back into her human self, she nodded. "Of course! Fish, fish, pumpkin, fish~" she sang happily. Using her magic to create a cooked fish floating in mid-air.

This peaked cat Maka's interest, so she ran back over and started jumping under the fish, mewing angrily. "Meow meow!" At this Soul started laughing his head off, How cute!

Blair glared at him "How would you like it if food as good as this was just out of your reach? So don't laugh!" With a huff she lowered the fish so Maka could eat.
