A small black cat walked through the lone streets of Death City, hissing to itself, "I can't believe that Blair! Why would she turn me into a cat…?" The cat whined remembering what had happened. He was sitting in his beautifully symmetrical home fixing a painting when suddenly the door swung open, all he remembered was 'Pu-pu-pumkin cannon~!' and everything went black after that. Kid had woken up at his house on the ground a cat and decided that he would track down Blair and make her turn him back.
Kid looked up at the sky and squinted when his gaze met the sun, it was so hot out and having fur didn't help. Kid looked around for any shade, he felt like his paws were going to burn off. He looked to his left and found a tiny strip underneath the nearest house. Kid wobbled towards his destination still trying to figure out how to walk with four legs. He leant against the wall trying to get all of him covered in shade, after a few minuets Kid felt his fur start to cool off. Kid sighed and looked in front of him, still such a long way to walk… Kid mewled "It only usually takes me ten minuets to walk to Souls place… I haven't even reached the basket ball courts…" Kid's ears flicked when he heard footsteps at his right, he turned to see his weapon friend Soul carrying two bags of groceries, and Kid figured Maka must have sent him out to shop. "Soul! Hey it's me, Kid!" Kid ran up to Soul attempting not to trip.
The weapon looked down at him slightly confused the he smiled "Aw what a cool cat." Soul dropped the bags he was carrying and put out his hand trying to lure the cat to him.
Kid blinked, "Soul…?" Soul advanced towards him making Kid step back out of instinct.
"No kitty, I wont hurt you. Come here." Soul reached out to pat Kid on the head. "What are you doing out here in the sun… you should go home."
Kid hissed a bit at his startling Soul slightly "I would go home but my fur would make the whole place asymmetrical and then I would have to spend hours checking the carpet for stray hairs…"
Kid felt Souls hands slip under his front arms and pick him up so he was eye to eye with his friend. "You don't have a collar and I haven't seen you around here before…" Kid locked eyes with Soul hoping his friend would recognize him. "… You look a lot like my friend." Soul noticed the cat had three white stripes on the left side of his head. Soul smiled, "But then again, if he saw you he'd probably break down and cry because it reminds him of how asymmetrical he is." The weapon laughed but Kid was on the brink of tears.
'He's right! I AM ASYMMETRICAL! EVEN SOUL THINKS SO!' Kids eyes bubbled with sadness but Soul didn't seem to notice, the weapon proceeded to gently set the little back cat down.
"Well… I have to go." Soul grabbed the grocery bags beside him and started home again.
Kid felt the heat of the sun starting to burn his fur again and realized he needed Soul to bring him to the weapons shared apartment before his fur lights on fire. He meowed cutely trotting up to Soul and rubbing his head against his leg, making the weapon stop in his tracks. "Cat… what are you doing?" Soul attempted to walk away but the little black cat blocked him. "Seriously cat; I have ice cream with me. It's going to melt if I don't get home soon." Soul rolled his eyes and picked the cat up by his scruff. "Fine I will take you with me…" Soul gently slung the small cat over his right shoulder and switched both bags to his right arm so he could put his other over the thin cat.
Kid made a strained sigh noticing Souls shoulder was pressing into his ribcage. "Watch it you asymmetrical idiot…" Kid growled, Soul of coarse didn't understand him but understood he was uncomfortable and pressed Kid closer to his neck. Kid sat through the bumpy ride to Souls house clinging onto the others neck. When they arrived Soul took out his keys and pressed his head against Kid so he wouldn't run off as he unlocked the door. Kid gasped for breath and tried to retract his claws from Souls neck.
Once inside, Soul grabbed Kids claws and pried them out of his neck, "Okay cat were here." Soul said rubbing the new wounds on his neck, "I'm going to have to keep you in my room since Maka will probably freak out if she knows I adopted a random street cat." He looked to the side and grimaced, "Yet she doesn't kick out Blair… I wish that lady would go find some other poor guy to torment…"
Kid glared at him, "I'm not a street cat…" As soon as Soul let him go to put away the groceries Kid leapt from his arms and started down the halls of the apartment looking for Blair's room. As a cat his nose was far more sensitive to smell and he soon found himself in front of the witch cats' room. The door was cracked slightly so Kid invited himself in, he looked around. Nothing. She didn't come back home after her seemingly random assault on Kid. Kid sat still thinking of what he was supposed to do now.
Suddenly he felt himself being pried off of the ground. "What are you doing in here, cat?" Soul dragged him through the halls and they soon found themselves in Souls room. "Here's your new home…" Soul sat Kid on the bed gently and started to pet under his chin.
"WHAT THE HELL ARE YOU DOING!" Kid hissed finding it awkward that his friend was touching him like he was some sort of common house cat.
Soul blinked in confusion, "What's wrong..?" The albino began to pet Kid behind his ear this time.
The meister found himself unwillingly purring at this, "Soul~" Kid gently rubbed his head against Souls hand making the other pick him up and set him in his lap while continuing to pet him. "… What the hell am I doing!" Kid snapped out of his blissful state and clawed Soul in the leg harshly, as a reaction Soul grabbed the cat by his scruff and flicked him on the nose.
"Bad cat! What was that for..?" Soul said scolding the small cat.
Kid rubbed his nose with his paw trying to make it feel better. "Bastard…" Kid muttered in pain.
Soul placed him on the bed gently, "Hey I get it if you're having a bad day but don't take it out on me, cat…"
"You have no idea…" Kid meowed sarcastically.
Soul started to feel a bit bad for flicking him and picked up the cat cautiously holding him to his chest. "Well… you don't have a name that I know of… so how about I name you?" Soul held the cat closer to his neck and nuzzled into his soft fur. "You're so adorable~ but I doubt you want a name like 'kawaii'…" Soul looked at the cats golden eyes "You do remind me a lot of my friend Kid though… That's it!" Soul held the frail cat up so that he was staring into his sun gold eyes. "I will name you after Kid, you can be my Kiddo-cat~" Soul chuckled at his word play and put the small thing on his shoulder.
"How creative, you creep…" Kid meowed. Soul cuddled him some more which was starting to freak Kid out, he never figured Soul was so gentile and sweet.
Soul picked himself off the bed and started walking towards the bathroom. "Now I did find you on the streets so I think I should give you a bath…" Kids' eyes widened at this. Soul entered the bathroom shutting the door behind him. Kid had to admit what he saw was unimpressive and sad compared to his luxurious symmetrical bathroom at home. He also noticed something else; there was only a shower and no bath tub. That meant Soul was going to put Kid in the sink or…
Suddenly Kid was placed by the sink, "Thank god I though you were going to get in the shower with me…" Kid mewed in silent relief.
Soul started to look in Kids fur, "I don't see any fleas… but I guess since your pitch black it's hard to tell. I should put you in the shower anyways, you're a bit dusty." Kid sat still in disbelief. Soul was really going to take a shower with him! Sure Kid had seen Soul undress at PE but this was getting to a whole new level of awkward. Soul turned on the shower checking the temperature then started to remove his jacket, Kid gulped.
'Just don't look at him Kid that's all you have to do…' Kid turned his vision away from the weapon blushing harshly. Kid heard some of Souls cloths start to fall against the bathroom floor through the running water. The meister gulped again shutting his eyes as he heard Soul walk towards him. "Oh god no…" Kid felt Souls bare arm wrap itself under his ribcage.
"Alright Kid," Soul found it slightly awkward to have named the cat that but he did find it relevant. "I hope the water not to hot…" Soul put himself in the shower first and held the small cats scruff incase he found water distasteful and decided to claw his way out if it. The cat just meowed stiffly when water hit his fur. Soul held the thin cat to his chest and grabbed some shampoo to wash him with.
"Get me out of here you idiot!" Kid hissed as he felt Soul trying to get him clean, he still had his yellow eyes clenched as tight as possible. Kid tried to breathe in but water mixed with air making him sneeze, the cat felt his lungs tighten with the need for air. "Soul I can't breathe…" Kid extended his claws slightly prepared to use them if Soul didn't get him some air fast.
Soul noticed this and turned the cats back towards the foist of the shower rinsing off all of the shampoo he had used on him. The weapon placed Kid on the bottom of the shower and proceeded to try and wash all the cat fur that clung to him. Kid didn't know where he was and the steam build up in the shower was making his lungs tight again. He decided to open one eye cautiously to see where he had been placed. To his misfortune, the thing he didn't want to see was directly in his line of sight. Kid spun his head around hitting the side of the shower with a loud 'clang'. 'I didn't just see that…' Kid stared at the falling water for mind soap.
Soul knelt down beside his new pet seeing that he had just hit his head. "Kid! Are you ok? Be careful…" He grabbed the small animal and placed him on his lap.
"OH GOD… HELP ME…" Kid felt Soul seat him on the exact place Kid didn't want to be. Soul felt the cat's claws dig into his leg as his tail flicked back and forth in agitation.
The albino grabbed the cats paw and slowly rubbed it, "Aw Kid are you alright?"
Kids head swung to the ground in defeat, "Are you done molesting me?" Soul placed the cat across his lap to gently rub his head, thinking the cat was still hurt from the accident. "Do you get your sick kicks out of this, you pervert…" Kid hissed un-audibly through the pouring water of the shower.
"Let's get you dry…" Soul said still concerned for his new pet, he proceeded to turn off the shower while gently moving the cat to his shoulder. The weapon got out of the shower reaching for a towel that he had at the side of the shower, he pulled the black cat away from him as he wrapped the white towel around him. "There~ now you're all clean." The cat let out a small noise as he pinned his ears against his head. Kid had never wanted to know what it felt like to be a wet rag, but this must have been it. His fur clung together making it heavy on his frame.
Soul grabbed himself a towel and wrapped it around his waist as he left the bathroom to lay himself and Kid on his bed. The weapon started to rub the towel around Kid quickly but gently as to not startle him, Kid let out an annoyed noise as he felt Souls hands pressing on his lungs. Soul stopped and transitioned to rubbing the towel against Kids ears and face. He lifted Kid onto his chest letting the cat air dry the rest of himself. Kid found himself battling the strange urge to lick his fur clean but resisted, he watched Soul drying his snow white hair with the towel that was previously the only thing making him slightly decent. Kid sighed and laid his face against the scar on Souls chest, he had never seen it this close and found in interesting since he couldn't get scars.
The meister felt the bed shift slightly as Soul repositioned the both of them to the middle of his bed. Kid found this moment some what peaceful. He had always found Soul comfortable to be around and if the awkwardness of him being a cat and Soul being naked was put aside, everything felt as it should be some how. Kid sat still settling into the stillness, Soul wrapped his arm around the cat and pressed him closer to himself. "You know Kid… Its nice having a normal cat for once." Soul smiled as he stroked the cats back lightly as to not disturb the now sleeping Kid.
