Chapter 1-Stray Cat
~Normal POV~
"ARGHHHHH!" a yell of pain had come from a certain bluenette.
"Would someone please shut him up!" a voice yelled.
"Director sir, if we did that then we'd get hit by the ray also," a second voice said.
"Tch, find I guess we could live we a few screams of pain," the director commented.
More screams were heard until the poor boy could no longer yell out of exhaustion. What they were doing to the boy was absolutely crazy and horrible. When they were done the boy wasn't really human anymore.
"How did the results go?" the director asked.
"Sir the DNA has successfully entered the boy."
"Good then that means that even if this company goes down… We'll be taking you down with us Ikuto Tsukiyomi."
The said Ikuto was right now on floor writhing with pain as a DNA was forced into him. You see these people didn't want to go down by themselves and now they had dragged him down with them.
The director squatted down and picked the boys chin up so Ikuto's face was facing him. "You'll have only a few weeks before you completely turn into a cat," the man evilly sad. He then began to laugh. "To think that we could actually mix your blood with cat DNA! Well at least we know this wasn't a failed experiment," the man snickered. "Alright now get him out of my sight!" the director commanded.
~The Next Few Weeks~
The next few weeks had gone by in a blur. Easter had been stopped and Ikuto had been freed. He had received the rights as the owner and had talked to his most important person again. But he soon left to search for his father and get away before the transformation occurred. He then proceeded to come back and for Nikaidou's and Sanjou's wedding. His Shugo Chara had also gone back to an egg before coming unfortunately. BUT, he still hadn't turned into a cat and he wondered if maybe the experiment had failed.
~In France~
~Ikuto's POV~
"URGHHHHH!" I fell down on the floor.
"Ikuto!" a brunette came running into the room.
"Michelle it looks started… Can you do me… a favor after… I turn into cat?" I asked.
"Anything."
"When I turn into a cat I want you to put me in a basket filled with strawberries and chocolates, then I want you to deliver me to a girl named Amu but don't get spotted by her when you leave me there okay."
"Alright but isn't she in Japan?" she asked.
"Yeah oh and talk to me so I can see if I can talk like a human or if all the will come out is meows, nyas, and purrs."
She sighed. "Okay."
"Thanks." I closed my eyes as I felt myself getting smaller and smaller. After a few seconds I was a kitten. I opened my eyes and walked on all fours towards a mirror. My fur was black with a few midnight blue patches here and there. I turned back to Michelle and she was looking at me with sparkling eyes. Before I could react I was being hugged and snuggled to death!
"Oh you're so cute! I just wanna snuggle you to death!" she said.
"Michelle let go!" I said.
"Oh so you can talk like a human!"
"Alright now can you put me in that basket?"
"Not before giving you a bath."
"NOOOOO!" I yelled.
~After the Bath~
I'm now sitting in a basket filled with chocolates and strawberries. Oh and if you're wondering where I was before well I was at Michelle's apartment since I couldn't stay alone and suddenly transform into a cat! By the way Michelle's another chara host I found while searching for my father. We got to know each other pretty good and I told her about my little secret since I wanted her to do this before I completely turned into an animal.
I released the air I had been holding in since she just had to explain why she was taking a cat with her on a plane. Surprisingly she made a good sap story and the attendant let me go in with her instead of in the kennel or with the luggage. I can't believe I'm actually going back to Japan so soon I still haven't found my dad yet unfortunately.
I popped my head out of the basket so that I could get some air. It's really stuffy in there. I wish I could talk to Michelle or at least be able to sigh but then that would bring a lot of unwanted attention. I popped my head back into the basket and went to sleep.
~Later~
My ears straightened and I awoke to a lot of noise going on. I popped my head out again and looked around. We were at the airport and were getting our luggage. After the man told us to have a good day we left and looked around the town. I inhaled the sweet scent of crepes and other goods. "Okay so where was your girlfriend's house again?" Michelle whispered to me.
I blushed and whispered back to her, "She's not my girlfriend… Yet, anyway her house is down that street."
She walked down the street until she came upon Amu's house. "This is it right."
"Yeah." She continued walking. "Hey, where are you going?" I asked.
"Hello it's still the evening not to mention people are going to be asking why I'm on her balcony if they didn't even invite me in," she replied.
"Well you've got a point but still where are you going?"
"I'm going to the hotel."
"When did you rent a hotel?"
"Like 3 weeks ago," she said.
My mouth hung open. "How did you know you'd need a hotel at this day!"
"Simple, I was planning to come on this day to Japan."
"You were?"
"Yup now hush we're going in." I popped my head back into the basket so that it seemed that the basket was only filled with goods. She walked up to the front desk. "Um, excuse me but I have a reservation here my name is Michelle Le Rey."
"Ah yes Miss Le Rey if you'd please follow the bellhop towards your room, here is the key and a schedule of the events that will be going on this month," the front desk woman said giving Michelle a key and schedule.
"Thank you very much," Michelle replied and followed the bellhop towards her room.
Her room was on the 7th floor with a balcony to see outside. She opened the door and came in. The bellhop got her luggage and set it inside next to the door. Michelle thanked the bellhop and tipped him a twenty dollar bill. Did I mention that she's the daughter of a famous pop star and artist? Moving on she set me on the couch and I got out of the basket.
"So, how do you like the room?" she asked.
"Flat screen tv, leather couches, fridge, bath tub and shower, plus whatever else they've got here, I say that this is paradise."
She laughed. "I'll be staying here for a while to see if you get fully accepted into her family or not."
"Well someone's been thinking ahead," I replied.
"Anyone would if it involves one of your schemes."
"Ouch."
She rolled her eyes. "Come on into the bath tub by now you must smell like strawberries and chocolate not to mention now I've got to wash the strawberries too."
"But aren't the strawberries wrapped individually in transparent foil?" I asked
"Well then I gotta switch the foil and still wash them just in case."
I pouted and walked towards the bath tub. Michelle washed and dried me then set me on the couch and put the tv remote next to me. "Just in case you get bored while I wash the strawberries," she commented when I raised an eyebrow. In a about half an hour she was done and sitting on the couch next to me watching tv."
"I wonder how everyone's been doing?" I asked.
"Who knows you haven't seen anyone in months!"
"Yeah it looks like the directors hypothesis failed and it ended up being longer…"
"It looks like you really will be showing Amu different sides of you," she smirked.
"Ho-how did you know about that!"
"When before you left I put microchips into your clothes and listened in on your conversations."
"Why you-"
"Oh hey is it night time again looks like its show time." She got me from the stomach and put me back into the basket. She walked to the door, opened it and locked the door after her. She then proceeded to go to the elevator and push the 1st floor button. Once the ding was heard she walked out and made her way outside the hotel and into the town. She continued walking until she arrived at Amu's street.
She made sure no one was looking as she climbed a tree and jumped from the highest branch to a rooftop. She kept jumping rooftops until she arrived at Amu's house. After confirming that Amu was downstairs she lowered herself down onto the balcony and she set me down on the floor. We heard footsteps coming up the stairs and she said, "Good luck Ikuto."
"Thanks." She jumped back onto the rooftop just as the door opened. Amu came in with her 4 shugo chara laughing. She stopped when she the basket. She opened up the side door and picked the basket up. She carried it back into her room and set it on her bed. I decided that now would be the best time to pop out. I stuck my head out and looked at her. Just as beautiful as when I last left her.
"Awww, it's a kitten!" she squealed. "But I wonder why its here?"
"Amu-chan look there's a note!" Ran exclaimed while picking up a note Michelle had left I the basket.
Miki got it from Ran and began to read it, "It says, 'Please take care of me I don't have an owner or a name.'"
"Aw, that's so sad," Suu and Dia chorused.
"You must be lonely," Amu said while picking me up.
"What are you going to name him?" her four charas asked her.
"H-huh! Me!" she said.
"Yeah!" they replied.
"Uh well, um, you know he kinda reminds of Ikuto… So I guess his name will be Ikuto!" she said.
Her charas all raised an eyebrow and started poking her with their elbows. "Looks like someone's thinking 'bout Ikuto again," they all said.
She blushed. "Am not, anyway you guys were the ones who told me to name him," she murmured.
"And since you named him that means you're going to keep him right?" they all replied while looking at her with big sparkly eyes.
"Well I guess but first I have to go to Mom and Dad about keeping him…"
"Then let's go!" they all exclaimed.
"Okay." She picked me up again and went downstairs.
"Mom, Dad, I found this kitten out in my balcony can I keep him please~" she asked.
"Sweetie what if he has an owner?" her mom asked.
"He doesn't there was a note attached to him saying he didn't."
"Well I guess one more member to the family couldn't hurt…" her father said.
"Really thanks Dad!"
"Fine but he's sleeping with you," her mom said.
"Alright!" Amu pumped her fist into the air.
"So what did you name him?" they both asked.
"Oh um…" Amu paused.
"I wanna call him Ikuto-chan!" Ami said running into the room.
"Okay then his name will be Ikuto!" Amu said.
"What a nice name," Amu's mom said while smiling. I saw that the smile had a bit of a tease in it. She must've remembered the time when I was here in human form of course.
"Okay well I'm going to go find a blanket for him," Amu said rushing out of the room. She entered the laundry room and looked for a blanket. "Sheesh what is it remind Amu of Ikuto so she can blush day!" I purred. "Oh not you too. You know you're starting to act exactly like him," she whispered.
'That's cause I am him' I thought. She found a blanket and carried me to her room. She set the blanket on the floor and put me down on top of it and grabbed the bottom and put it up to my shoulders. "I'm going to go to the bathroom for a while so don't move okay," she told me.
She left and I was left to think about what I was going to do now. I was a cat and in Amu's room. I had to purr, meow and nya because that's what a normal cat would do. Great what have I gotten myself into. She came back into the room and snapped me out of my thoughts. She got a pair of pajamas from her closet and set it down on her bed. She started to take of her shirt. My eyes widened. I looked away and buried myself into the blanket. Great because she doesn't know I'm Ikuto now she's going to start taking her clothes off thinking I'm just a cat!
It's a good thing I had enough common sense to look away before she completely took her shirt off! Man what have I gotten myself into!
Leila: Woo! This is the longest chapter in any story I've made so far!
Ikuto: I can't believe I got so close!
Amu: Why'd he get so close to seeing me without a shirt!
Leila: 'Cause I needed to make this a good chapter!
Ikuto: Please review!
