The Strange Feline

Chapter 1

It was unmistakeable. After the death of Lelouch vi Britannia, Tyrant King of the World, the body had vanished. In order to keep the public from knowing about the disappearance, there had still been a funeral, and an empty casket had been buried. Well, not exactly empty, a few of his belongings were in there, but it was still a mystery as to what had happened to the actual body, even now, six months after the fact.
CC had vanished, too, for the most part. She stayed at the palace, a pizza-fed pet mostly. She didn't care. She had her Cheese-kun, and something she'd wanted more than anything in the world. She had her freedom, so to speak. A scar remained on her chest where the Geass Symbol used to be, but since it was where it was, no-one knew that the contract had been filled. And thus, she was kept in the palace.
Zero, or rather Suzaku Kururugi, was also staying at the palace, trying to live out the life granted to him by the power of the Geass. The single order, "live", given to him by his best friend, worst rival, and beloved bed-mate, Lelouch Lamperouge. The same one he'd stabbed in front of millions as part of the plans for Zero Requiem. The same one he'd held, blood flowing over both of them, as Lelouch had whispered one small word before falling from the platform to where his sister had gathered his lifeless body and cried over him.
And right now, Suzaku was puzzling over that singular word, when suddenly there was a scraping sound at his office door. Picking up the helmet, Suzaku put it over as he went and answered. He looked down as something rubbed rather affectionately over his leg.
A black cat. A sleek, slender cat with a light ruffling of longer fur on it's head near the ears, was rubbing itself over his pant leg and leaving shed fur all over it.
Suzaku closed the door and knelt, knowing he was going to get scratched or bitten. Arthur had done that, several times, when he'd gone to Ashford Academy.
But this cat seemed to have a different idea. As soon as Suzaku put his hand out, it put it's paw on his hand, almost like a handshake. It even added a little pressure for a moment, like it really was trying to shake his hand. "Meow."
"Well, you're friendlier than Arthur." Suzaku commented.
"Meow." The cat followed him back to his desk and looked up for a moment before gathering itself up and attempting the jump. It had unfortunately hesitated in it's attempt, and didn't quite make it. Only the front half did, and the cat struggled, leaving several claw marks in the desktop before Suzaku lifted it's rump and it stood on the wooden furniture. "Meow."
"I have work." Suzaku replied. Why was he talking to a cat? He turned back to the computer and resumed his review of the several prisoners that had been arrested during Lelouch's reign of terror.
"Meow." The cat seemed to sigh and looked at the pictures Suzaku kept along the upper part of the desk, given that it was one of those really nice ones that went along one wall on one side and then came out to form the rest of the desk, shaped like an L. With a more calculated hop, it got to the top of the desk and sat, waving it's tail just along the edge of the screen as it pawed one specific photo. The frame was made of ivory and gold, and inside was a picture of Suzaku wearing his Knight of the Round uniform beside Lelouch in his Emperor's robes. "Mow."
Suzaku sighed. The cat was starting to get annoying, given that the tail was passing right through his line of sight. It was a rather long tail for any ordinary house cat, and he'd never seen this particular cat around the palace before. He looked up to notice the cat had placed it's paw on the ivory frame. "Hey, don't touch that!"
"Mowr?" The cat looked at him, taking it's paw off the frame, and tilted it's head as though it were asking why.
"It's important, alright. Just don't touch it." Suzaku went back to his work, taking his helmet off so he could breathe easier.
The cat lay down to watch Suzaku for a while. Occasionally, the cat would lick it's paw and fuss with the longer fur around it's ears and face, then watch Suzaku again.
"This is taking longer than I thought it would." Suzaku muttered. "Some of these people actually belong in the prison, while others were just for speaking up against Lelouch."
"Mowr." The cat jumped down, right in front of Suzaku and turned to the computer. With it's body in Suzaku's way, the cat pawed at the keyboard for a moment, only to get picked up. "ROWR!"
"Stay out of the . . . what the heck?" Suzaku put the cat down, looking at the screen. Every prisoner that had spoken out against Lelouch and had been arrested was now checked off to be released. "How did you?" Suzaku looked again at the cat, who was now sitting there, idly licking it's paw. The way that fur fell around it's face, it looked almost like Lelouch did during the party to welcome Arthur.
"Mowr?" The cat looked at Suzaku again, and he his breath nearly caught. Most cats had green or yellow eyes, and occasionally he'd seen the odd one with one or both eyes blue. But never in his life had he seen a cat with purple eyes.
"Just what are you?" Suzaku asked, picking the cat up again.
"Mowr." The cat rubbed affectionately against Suzaku's shoulder and cheek, meowing sadly. Slipping up onto the brunette's shoulder, the cat put it's paws on the curly brown locks and made a more playful meow.
"Ok, so you're playful." laughed Suzaku. He took the cat off his head. "Do you belong here, though, or did you just wander in?"
"Mowr." The cat wanted back on his shoulder, but Suzaku held it firmly.
Taking his helmet, Suzaku put it back over and left the office, taking the cat with him.
"Zero, you're finished early." said Cornelia. She was one of Lelouch's elder sisters, now the commander of the Britannian Military and leader of the reorganization of the countries that were receiving their freedom. "And what is this?"
"It got in my office." Zero replied. "I was wondering you'd seen it before."
"Mowr." The cat didn't seem to like Cornelia, and hissed at her, flattening it's ears back and showing teeth.
"Not that I've seen." Cornelia replied. "Aside from the Geass girl, we don't generally have pets."
"Mowr." The cat squirmed a bit in Suzaku's hold, making itself much more comfortable lying in his arms instead of being held like some stuffed animal.
"That tail's fairly long." Cornelia observed.
The cat hissed again, then snuggled Suzaku.
"That's definitely different." the princess observed. "Didn't Arthur bite you?"
"Several times." Zero replied. "This one seems quite affectionate, if not odd."
"Nunnally's office is this way." Cornelia said. "She might want to see the cat."
The 100th Empress of Britannia looked up, sighing when she saw it was Zero and Cornelia. "I'm about ready to scream." she admitted to them. "But only because Lelouch left such a mess behind when he died."
The cat turned it's head away from her, curling it's tail around itself.
"Well, this might not be the best time, then." said Suzaku.
"What's that?" Nunnally asked.
"A cat that came to my office." Suzaku replied. He attempted to detach the feline from his front, and only managed so after a lot of struggling.
"Rowr." The cat looked at him sadly as it was placed on the desk. Before Cornelia or Nunnally could react, the cat had hopped down from the pristine marble and was pawing Suzaku's pant leg. "Meow."
"Aw. It's so pretty." Nunnally got up and walked around the desk, kneeling to pet the cat.
"ROWR!" The cat's fur stood on end, and it arched it back as it backed away from her, trying to get as close to Suzaku as possible. Looking up at him, the cat meowed again pathetically.
"That was weird." said Suzaku. "The cat did something similar to Cornelia."
"Yeah, it hissed at me." Cornelia added. "Still, I've never seen this cat around the palace."
"Me neither." said Nunnally. "You should get it checked out by the vet, Suzaku."
He knelt and picked a very grateful kitty up. "Alright. Thanks." He left, carrying the cat with him down to the outer courtyard, across the yard to where the palace vet lived.
"A cat, Zero?" asked Rivalz. He had no idea that Zero was Suzaku, and the Japanese wanted to keep it that way.
"It came into my office and seems to have taken a shine to me. I wanted to make sure it was healthy before keeping it. You know, in case of mice or other pests."
"Rowr." The cat gave him a look that seemed to mean "You chase them."
"Well, lets have a look." Rivalz went to pick the cat up, but it firmly dug it's claws into Zero's sleeve.
"Oh, come on." said Zero, plucking the cat off him. "It's not like he's going to hurt you any." He put the cat down on the examining table.
Rivalz touched the cat once, and instantly, there were teeth in his hand. Holding his hand up, he looked back at Zero. "Well, he has a strong bite."
"He?"
"Yeah, but this cat's a little weird." Rivalz said, finally getting his hand free. He felt along the cat's ribs and legs, getting scratched each time. The cat tried to turn again as Rivalz felt it's abdomen, and made the dangerous leap from the linolium table to Zero's arms as soon as Rivalz had let him go.
"Mowr." the cat whimpered, rubbing up against Zero's shoulder.
"So, what's so weird about the cat?" Zero asked.
"It's a hermaphrodite."
