1. Well... That's unfortunate.
I heard a strangled cat's meow. Being the animal lover I was, I couldn't stand the pained wails of the feline. I headed towards the sound of the animal's cry, which lead me down a dark alley way. I saw a door to an apartment and quietly opened it.
A man was hitting the poor cat with a stick. I rushed in, not really thinking, and grabbed the cat. I ran out before the man could do anything.
"Hey!" He shouted, but I was already running away. The cat I had grabbed had dried blood all over it's fur.
"You poor thing," I murmured as I rushed to a gate in another alleyway. I opened it and quickly shut it, in case he was following me. Which, of course, he was.
"I'll murder you! And Chloe!" He screamed as he fumbled to open the gate. I figured 'Chloe' was the cat. I ignored him and ran as fast as I could. I rushed to the animal shelter that was a few meters away. I set down the cat, who layed there motionless, and grabbed a bobby pin from my hair. Turning my head, I checked behind me. I quickly set the bobby pin in the door lock and twisted and turned it to pick the lock. That's what bobby pins are good for. I heard the lock click and I pushed open the door. I picked up the kitty and rushed inside. I shut the door behind me.
I walked over to a sink and started to clean up the cat.
*MEANWHILE*
"Hurry up! We ain't got much time. If we want to do this, we have to do it now!" A woman whispered hurriedly.
"I'm coming! You try lifting this thing." A man responded urgently to the woman. He was carrying a large, radio-active gun. It had radiated waves that would combine two living creatures to create a new species. They planned to use it on a bull dog and a Shih tzu to create a bull-shit.
They set the gun on a tri pod and aimed it at the two dogs which they had already set together.
"On 3." The woman said. "1, 2, 3!" She shouted the last number.
I looked up as I heard someone shout "3!" I saw a beam of light that was slowly traveling towards a bull dog and a shih tzu. I didn't know what it was, but I grabbed Chloe and ran in front of it. It slammed into my body and Chloe's.
My first thought was, I should of left Chloe over there.
"What are you doing here!?" Someone screamed in my face. I blinked my eyes open slowly.
"Huh?" was my response.
"I asked what you're doing here?!" The person said.
"I- uh..." I broke off when I saw something sprouting from my back. "I'm just leaving." I looked around to grab Chloe, but she wasn't there. I turned and ran from the center. I kept running out into the alley and around. I didn't know where I was running, I just knew something was wrong.
I stopped in an alley and fell to the ground. It must have rained later last night because there were puddles all around me. I looked into one and screamed in fright. On top of my head were two large cat ears.
"AAAAHHH! I- I'm A CAT!" I screamed, luckily no one was around. I lifted my hands to my head quickly to make sure I wasn't hallucinating. Sure enough, I felt two pointy cat ears on my head. "Make it go away!"
I tried stuffing the ears back into my head, it didn't work. I turned around, to make sure ther wasn't anything on my back, this was hard to do. I noticed a fluffy, brown tail coming out my rear end. More screaming.
"Oh my." I said, putting a hand to my head. "This certainly is something." I considered going to a doctor's but, I was almost positive I would have been harassed in some way. I would have to get home secretly somehow. I breathed in deeply to calm myself, a loud pop filled the air, and the ears and tail disappeared.
"Thank god!" I sighed, I began to walk home from there. When I reached my house, I collapsed on my bed and fell into an nice, long nap. I woke up to a sound buzzing in my ears. It was like a little voice in my head, well, two little voices.
"Hurry up! We don't have much time before the cops get here." An urgent voice heeded.
"Well, sorry. It's hard to pick a lock, I'd like to see you try!" A sarcastic voice replied. A lock sounded.
"Come on, those jewels are just waiting for us." The first voice laughed. I heard footsteps and a clatter.
I shot straight up. Something bad was going on, I could just tell. I pulled on a black sweater and some jeans, then put on a hat and a pair of sunglasses. I shut the door behind me as I walked out of my house once more. I walked down a street, my instincts taking over and ended up in front of a jewelry shop. Crashing sounds emerged from the little store. I stepped in, slowly and carefully.
"Stop!" I shouted, I decided on the spot that that was a bad decision. Two fully grown men looked at me.
"Who the hell are you?" One demanded.
"Get outta here!" The other one shouted. He pulled out a gun and aimed it at me. A popping sound filled the air. The ears and tail had come back. The guy freaked and pulled the trigger unexpectedly. Luckily, my instincts took over. I dodged the shot by randomly pulling up a cartwheel. I've never done a cartwheel before.
"What the hell?" The second guy said. He grabbed a handful of rings and stuffed them into a bag. I raised my hands above my head and flipped over. After doing a series of flips, which again I had never done before, I knocked the sack out of his hands. Rings, necklaces, and bracelets spilled out like a waterfall. I threw a punch and a kick, which landed on his crotch, he doubled over in pain. The first guy ran out screaming that I was the devil's cat. I don't know, but this stuff is pretty creepy.
