Sorry for not updating or giving any indication that I am still alive :(. I made this story out of boredom, hope you guys enjoy! ^.^
Kakashi opened his eyes and blinked away the last reminants of his nap. He stood up and stretched, arching his tail over his back and yawning. Today was the day his owner, Minato would get another kitten. Kakashi was less than thrilled, and had attempted to change the man's mind. But after many failed attempts, many of which had left Kakashi locked in his room as punishment, the young cat gave up and let Minato do as he wished. When he had woken, Kakashi saw that Minato had already left, so he jumped up onto the big brown couch and began to groom himself. Slicking down his long silver grey fur, Kakashi kept his ears strained, waiting for Minato and the new kitten. He licked his paw and brought it up to his black tipped face, rubbing it over his ears and muzzle; he had to look presentable to the new arrival, regardless of his attitude toward it. Kakashi craned his neck back so that he could reach the fur on his shoulder, it took half an hour to lick his fur until it shone. When he had finished, Kakashi jumped off the couch and sat in front of his food bowl, he ate a few of the hard pellets and drank some of the fresh water in the bowl next to him. Minato still hadn't come, so he sat expectantly in front of the door and waited.
After several minutes, Kakashi heard Minato's car roll into the driveway. His ears twitched as he listened to the slam of a car door and the crunch of shoes on gravel. Kakashi readied himself, the clicking of the key as it turned in the lock made his heart speed up and his body tense. Kakashi forced himself to sit still as the door slowly opened to reveal Minato. The man's sun-like blonde hair glowed and made a halo around his head as he looked down at Kakashi, unsurprised at the sight of his kitten waiting for him. Minato came in and closed the door, he was smiling uncontrollably as he set the box that he had held under his arm down for Kakashi to inspect.
"Hello Kakashi-kun, I brought you a new playmate!" Minato closed his eyes and gave Kakashi his biggest smile, excited about the new kitten. Kakashi stared blankly at him for a moment, then took a cautious step toward the box, sniffing it. He heard scuffling from within and moved closer, he couldn't see what was inside because of the lid that was there. Minato bent down and took the lid off the box. Kakashi peered into the opened container and was confronted with a brown ball of fur, it brought it's head up to Kakashi and looked at him. Kakashi stared into the large almond shaped eyes, they were solid black and watched him with an intensity that made Kakashi's pelt twitch. The brown scrap stood and gazed up at Kakashi, since the new kit was younger than him, it had to angle its head up to lock eyes with him. He walked around the box and measured the kit, it was male, his sturdy shoulders portrayed how broad and muscular the kit would be as an adult, his legs were slightly shorter than they should be, and his face had soft features. Kakashi looked at his pelt and saw that the kit's short fur was completely brown, it was a very neutral brown, neither dark nor light.
'Plain,' Kakashi thought with disdain, 'what's so special about him?' Kakashi wasn't sure what Minato saw in this kit, maybe he had just picked at random and this one had been lucky. Kakashi looked questioningly up at Minato.
"His name is Tenzou, isn't he a cutie!" Minato exclaimed. He reached into the box and picked up Tenzou, he set him down next to Kakashi.
"Get that thing away from me!" Kakashi hissed, he jumped away from the small kit, ears flat against his head and one paw extended threateningly. 'How dare he put that-that thing next to him!' He was offended by Tenzou and furious that Minato had brought a new cat into his house.
"Kakashi! Don't be rude!" Minato's eyes flashed angrily at Kakashi, but the small cat gave no indication that he regretted what he had said or done. Quite the contrary, Kakashi's eyes darted up and locked with Minato's, he glared at the man and whipped his tail. Kakashi turned his back to his owner and gave the kit a look that made him cower away from Kakashi, ears back and body close to the ground. Kakashi stalked off and raced up the stairs, the last thing Minato and Tenzou saw was the tip of his tail from around the corner as he went up the stairwell that lead to the second floor.
Kakashi quickly trotted into Minato's room and slipped under his bed, he backed himself into the corner and laid his head on his paws in despair. He knew that Minato had brought the new cat to replace him, Kakashi couldn't blame him, he had been a horrible companion; always questioning his owner and refusing to do as he said, always getting into trouble and never apologizing.
"Minato doesn't love me anymore," Kakashi whispered, his voice full of anguish, "he's going to replace me with Tenzou..." He sobbed quietly to himself.
