Prologue:

Sebastian's scratchy pink tongue carefully moves against the inky fur on his paw, wetting the matted strands and combing them down. His young master sits at his side, still trying to adjust to his new found body, and Grell prances around them.

"Sebas-chan is such a cute kitty!" He gushes loudly, "If only I were back in my human-form, I could snuggle with him and-"

A few inches away, Undertaker rolls around on his back, silver paws kneading at the air, "Hehehehehe."

"Sebastian, where are we?!" Though Ciel sits stoic and calm, his voice is laced with heavy irritation. Said butler-kitten lowers his paw to the ground, fluffy chest puffing out slightly. His wine colored eyes flicker around before he trots to the wall of the cardboard box.

But his senses are distorted. And when he tries to leap to the top, Sebastian's face ends up smushed into the crevice between the side and the bottom.

The Undertaker's giggles grow louder.

Gritting his teeth, Sebastian climbs to his feet and shakes himself off. Grell pads to where Sebastian stands, pawing at him.

"Poor Sebas-chan~" He cries out softly. Sebastian shoots him a sharp glare, nails popping out of his paw. Grell lets out a small cat-squeal and jumps away from him.

"Undertaker." Sebastian turns to said silver-furred kitten. "How can we get out of here?"

Said kitten rolls over onto his feet, lips tugged back over sharp canines, "You know the cost."

Sebastian twitches.

"You really don't know, do you, Sempai?" Grell pouts.

Undertaker giggles, eyes shielded by a long tuff of silver fur, "Not at all~!"

"Oof!"

Something hard rams into the side of the box, caving the cardboard sideways. Even the Undertaker scurries away from the bent side with the others, trying to avoid being squished. Several curses sound and a face appears above them.

"K-kittens?" Pale pink lips part, forming a small o-shape. Her eyes are wide -the color of storm clouds. She reaches into the box, slender fingers brushing against Ciel's forehead. Her other hand runs through her bangs, pushing the longer strands behind her ears.

Grell fan-girls, "Her hair is almost my favorite color! It's more of a licorice-red, but it's only a few shades off~" He prances around the girl's hand, and Ciel, as she pets said sour-puss. Ciel grimaces at her touch, obviously uncomfortable.

She chuckles and moves her hand to scratch Grell behind his ears.

"Ooo~!" He begins to purr, eyes sliding shut, "Excellent finger-work, too!"

"Ash?"

Another voice sounds from a few feet away, soft and feminine. The girl's hand retracts from the box, abandoning a disappointed Grell, and she looks towards the origin of the voice. "Hm?"

"What are you doing?"

"Playing with our dinner."

The cats stiffen. Ciel carefully shifts closer to Sebastian, lone eye narrowed. Sebastian watches the girl carefully and Undertaker watches with amusement, the picture of ease. Up close, however, his muscles are tense in preparation for a fight.

Grell pads around the box, meowing.

Another face appears. Vivid jade eyes widen in surprise. Her lips part, "Ash? Where did you find kittens?"

"In front of our door." The cherry-haired female responds as she stands. Strands of red spill out of a high ponytail, trickling down her back in a thin waterfall. Her arms stretch and she yawns, "I was just about to bring them inside."

The other girl nods, "I heard a loud thump, so I assumed it was you."

Ash pouts, rubbing at her shoulder, "It attacked me."

"What attacked you?"

"The door!"

The blond haired girl shakes her head, jade orbs rolling. Bending over, she grabs the cardboard box and starts to drag it towards the ajar door behind her, "Come on, lets get them inside."

Ash watches her drag them inside, not bothering to help. Her fingers massage her bruised shoulder. She steps over the threshold, into the apartment, and her sister looks up.

"Thanks for your help," Iro barks sarcastically.

"You're welcome!" Ash beams in response.

The blond glares at her. Ash closes the door behind her and dumps a small set of keys into a nearby bowl. She plops down onto the ground in front of the box, peering inside. She picks up the silver-colored one and strokes its fur.

"I like this one," She muses, as the kitten begins to purr and wiggle -as if it were being tickled.

"He looks weird." Iro frowns, staring at the longer strands of hair that cover the kitten's eyes, "Can he even see?"

Ash shrugs, "Dunno."

Her sister hums softly, nodding. Her gaze shifts back into the box and she smiles slightly, watching the sleek black kitten hover almost protectively over a smaller, navy colored kitten. The red kitten prances around the box, hips sashaying flamboyantly.

Iro chuckles.

"Don't they look familiar?"

Yes, I am aware this story is on Wattpad. How? Why? Do you think I'm copying?

You can go ask the author there herself. Though it would be pointless -because I am CloudedSkies and she is me.

Long story short, I've been jipped before and would rather not repeat down that path. I hope you enjoy this story~!
