Me: Okay, I was REALLY bored and I decided to start a little story about three Japanese kittens that are named (in order of age) Ryo (refreshing), Riku (land), and Ren (lotus). Ryo is the oldest at the age of twelve, Riku is in the middle at the age of nine, and Ren is the youngest at the age of six. And they're brothers. Anyway, they are adopted by Mr. Mistoffelees (and all the kittens have grown up, and though I'm a HUGE fan of MistoJemi, I didn't pair them up because I wanted Misto to suffer parenthood alone. and there are new kittens). And if you think their accessories are weird, remember that this is fan fiction. You could break all laws of the universe if you wanted. So… I'm gonna shut up now. Ryo, make the pop corn. Riku, stop pouncing your reflective. Ren, say it!

Ren *sigh*: Mistfire does not own Cats, only us *points at collar around his neck*. I hate collars. If she owned Cats, Mistoffelees would've had a song and Jemima and him would've had a love song and Jerrie and Teazer would've confessed their love for each other and Tugger and Bomba would've been making out in the background. Thank god she doesn't.

Three young tom kittens looked out the opening of a box in a rain storm speaking too each other in Japanese. They seemed lost and hopeless, with the youngest one panicking and the middle one attempting to comfort his little brother and the oldest attempting to get them food. They all looked relatively the same but had traits that made it certain they were related. They all had strange bright yellow eyes and white on the inside of there fur and a relative smallness along with small black noses with a smooth bridge.

The eldest was mainly black with with white paws, one white ear, and a white circles over his eyes that looked like glasses. He had one unusually long piece of fur put in front of his ear and tied into a pony tail. The middle brother was also mainly black but had two white paws, white ears, white shoulders, and a white tail. He had two pieces of fur like his older brothers and they were put back in ponytails but hung behind his ears. The youngest was not too different than his brothers. Even though they all were unusually small, he could pass as smaller than Jemima. He was black with a white paw, white stomach, and strange white paw pads. He had a very kittenish and innocent air to him and could easily be stepped all over, hurt, or taken advantage of if his older brothers weren't looking out. He had a the same long pieces of fur that his brothers had from behind his ears that he put in ponytails and let hang at the side of his face.

Thunder roared across the sky as the lightning shot right in front of their box. The youngest kitten shrieked and buried his head in the fur of the middle brother. "Oniichan!" He cried out in Japanese. His brother hugged him and nuzzled his little brothers fur. "I don't like storms." This time it was in English.

"We know Niichan. It's okay here, we're safe." Said the oldest brother. The youngest shrieked again when Thunder cracked again and the two older kittens spotted a figure at the front of the box. The two older brothers stood up and hissed at the cat like figure and the youngest wanted to join the fight, but his brothers made him stay at the back of box.

Misto POV

All I wanted was to go hunting, and now I have to get back to the junkyard in a thunderstorm? I growled to myself and heard the cry of a young kitten coming a box that looked ready to collapse. I looked closer and saw three kittens, brothers in fact, hiding in the doomed box. I walked closer and saw the two older ones jump up and hiss. It was obvious the youngest wanted to fight but the oldest pushed the other two at the back of the box. He leaped at me and I easily blocked him and grabbed his arms. "I'm not to hurt you! I'm Mistoffelees, who are you?" I asked him. He obviously didn't trust me very much, he gave his name anyway.

"I'm Ryo. My middle brother over there is Riku. The youngest is the really small one and we can him Ren." He hissed. I looked over and saw the kittens jump out of the box just before it collapsed. Ryo ran over to them and made sure they were okay and then looked at me a little helplessly. Riku was staring at me with one ear back and his tail waving back and forth and Ren was watching me cautiously while trying to keep warm.

"You guys look like you need a place to stay." I said to them. Riku's ears flipped up, Ryo straightened, and Ren gave me a look of surprise and hopefulness. It was as easy to say no to that look as it was to stop the rotation of the earth even with magic. "How about you come with me to junkyard. There's food, shelter, and warm beds and blankets." The kittens followed me without hesitation. That made me worry a little, what if I had been Macavity. I couldn't help but wonder what he would've done if he had found them. I was brought out of me trance by Ren tripping, and at the last second he went into a one hand hand stand and balanced for a fraction of a second and flip and land on his feet. By this, I was very surprised. Not even I could do that. I lead them to the Junkyard and got them dried off and into bed and I stayed up a little while. I noticed how protective Ryo and Riku were over Ren, even in sleep. Ren would whimper when ever lightning flashed or thunder cracked and one of the brothers would put their noses into his fur. I smiled at this. Also, they seemed very Japanese, and Ren had white paw pads. He hadn't seen that since his sister had moved to Japan. Then he realized it. His sister was dead, and these kittens were her sons. She had been pure black and white and had two pieces of long fur that she would put in ponytails. These were his nephews, and he felt a very fatherly feeling toward them. These were his sister's kittens and they looked like the had been abused since the age of three, and he wasn't going to let anyone hurt them ever again. He lay down next to them and watched them for a second. "Don't worry, no one is going to hurt you ever a again." I said and stroked Ren's head when lightning flashed again. I was soon lulled to sleep by the sound of ran against the pipe.

Me: Wow, that kinda took it's own coarse. I WAS NOT planning on them being Misto's nephews, but I guess it works.

Ren: Coarse it does.

Riku and Ryo: Um…guys, the kitchens on fire!

Ren: WHAT! *the kittens run and hide under the couch*

Me: I'd better take care of that. Anyway, right now I'm girl with black cat ears and a tail. Please R&R! And here's one of my famous quotes to go out on. There will be a new one each chappy and then repeat the cycle. Bye! Please, pretty please with adorable Misto and hot Tugger and awesome Munkustrap on top R&R!

Live Long, Prosper, and SPOON!
