The first two chapter are short but they will get longer ^-^ I do not own the caharacters or the Death Note series.
Chapter One
The cat named Mello
"Give it here; you're not prodding it hard enough!" Said a little boy's voice.
"Shut up! I'm doing it!" Shouted another.
'What the-?' Matt thought as he heard the boy's voices. As he turned the corner he saw two little kids prodding a cat with a stick, the cat was stuck under parts of trash cans and other things. "Oi! You little brats better get lost before I kick your asses!" He said in a tone that would probably scare an adult, never mind two children who were barley ten.
They turned to look at him, then each other before running down the street.
"Poor little thing." He said as he moved the things that trapped the cat. The little thing practically jumped into his arms. "You wanna come with me? Well, I don't see why not. It's not like I'll get a cat off anyone else for my birthday." He said as he stroked the cat.
"Okay, this is gonna be your new home!" Matt said happily to the little cat in his arms. "You're pretty dirty...I know, we'll get you bathed and then I'll get you something to eat." Matt said putting the cat down and taking his school jumper off. "On second thoughts you should probably eat first..." Matt thought out loud. "Yeah that's a better idea, 'coz then you won't get dirty again." He smiled down at the cat who was just staring up at him, with large blue eyes.
Matt picked the cat up and looked at its eyes. "What an unusual colour for cat's eyes..." Matt said.
"Right so you've been fed and the bath is just about run... I hope you don't mind water..." Matt said and picked him up. He put the cat gently in the bath. "I haven't named you yet! Let me see... how about... Larry, no, no I don't like that... Noodles, no, Jimmy, no, no. We need something different, unusual, something that isn't a common name..." Matt stayed silent for a second; the cat looking at him as if he could understand every word he said.
"Got it! Mello." He said with a huge smile. He pushed his goggles onto the top of his head and moved his face closer to Mello's. "You like it?" He asked still smiling, but his smile soon faded. "I don't know why I keep talking to you, it's not as if you can understand me or talk back..." He said and looked down at the floor.
"Yeah, I can..."
Matt lifted his head up to look where the voice had come from. His eyes widened. There was a man with cat ears sat in his bath... just where Mello had been. "W-wh-wha-? Eh? W-who are you?" 'I don't know if that's the right question to ask but...'
The man's face saddened a little. "You do not recognize me? It is Mello..." Matt stared at the man in disbelief.
"Y-you're Mello-?" Matt asked pointing.
The mans mouth widened into a huge smile, before he jumped out of the bath and onto Matt; pressing himself and his mouth against Matt.
Matt's eyes widened. 'What the heck is going on-? And where's my cat!?'
