Ok, this is a random fic I wanted to do. Warning, crack is ahead. This takes place during Season 1, before the Shadow Riders. Another warning, plenty of OOC and a few abridged references will be in here. Contains Neko!Jaden, Fem!Jaden, and hints at JadenXSyrus. Enjoy.
It had been a while since Jaden had woken up. At Duel Academy, weird stuff always popped up, whether it be streamers in the Obelisk Boys dorm (No, Jaden wasn't involved! Why would you think that?), or toilet paper magically appearing on the roof of the Obelisk Dorm.. (okay maybe she was involved in that).
But never had things been weirder than this. Syrus groaned, nudging Jaden.
"C'mon Jay, wake up!"
Jaden groaned. The last thing she remembered was playing Polymerization in a duel, and then she had blacked out. Jaden knew she'd been strongly connected to his cards, but was it strong enough to cause her to black out?
"Jaden, something happened to {insert name of random duelist that I don't care to name}'s Rescue Cat card! The image of it disappeared!"
Cat... why did that seem so important? "Fine Sy, I'm waking up..."
Jaden grumpily turned away, a total contradiction to what she had just said.
That's when all hell broke loose.
"Uhm... Jaden? Are those..?"
Syrus asked with a tinge of fear and curiosity, staring at Jaden's head incredulously.
"Are those what?" A tired Jaden grumbled. If Jaden was grumpy, you knew she was seriously worn out or irritated.
Syrus didn't answer. Instead, he gently reached out to touch the catlike ears that were on Jaden's head. He expected them to twitch, but what happened was completely unexpected.
Jaden froze. Something felt... weird. She felt Syrus touching what felt like ears on her head, but in the wrong position.. and the wrong feeling. Was it supposed to feel that good? Jaden bit back a weird feeling in her chest, but failed miserably as a soft vibration emitted from her chest.
"Jaden! You're a cat!"
Syrus jumped, pulling back from the much more relaxed Jaden. Ms. Yuki seemed to have fallen into a trance, her eyes closed in bliss and her ears tilted to allow Sy better access.
But as soon as Syrus had stopped, Jaden had realized what she was doing.
"Um... what was that?"
Jaden asked in slight embarrassment.
"Jaden, you have cat ears! Is that normal or something?"
Syrus had to keep himself from yelling. Luckily, Chumley was asleep and wouldn't wake up if the Apocalypse came early.
"No! Wait... didn't you say that the card that {insert name} had was missing somehow? Maybe it has to do with my playing Polymerization and blacking out..."
Jaden, for once, had a plausible theory.
"Maybe... but if that's the case, the question is how long its going to last.."
Syrus wasn't really thinking of Jaden turning back. He blushed slightly. Jaden was almost..well, adorable when she was purring. Though it was weird, it was sweet. This time, though, Syrus knew what would happen. Gently, he reached his hand back to the fluffy brown ear, rubbing at the base of it.
Jaden sighed, practically melting at the touch. It was as if someone had turned a switch in her brain to shut off all other functions save for breathing and heartbeat. And of course, purring. The purring that was like a motor in her chest, a very soothing motor.
"Aww..." Syrus couldn't help but say, grinning. Maybe this wasn't so bad after all.
