Chapter 1
Rai, Regis and Seira walked the kids home like the usual. They just got out from the PC bang so the kids won't come over this time plus- it's already late. While they are on their way to Frankenstein's house, the three nobles heard something cries for help- something's begging to live- something's wanting to survive. Seira decided to approach this poor little thing by the corner and got back with an injured and almost dying kitten on her hands.
They looked around and there they saw a bunch of children running away from their direction with sticks and stones on their hands, laughing. One of those kids still tried to throw a stone at them then continued to run away. Luckily, Rai noticed it and twitched his fingers on his side so the stone just fell on the ground.
Regis scowled.
To do such ruthless things at a very young age... Where are their manners?!
Rai took a glance at the kitten. Blood and dirt covering its furry body. He can't stand this violence.
How could this innocent creature be a victim of atrocity?
Rai leaned his hand closer to the kitten and swiped his fingers on its body, then swiped his bloodied fingers on his lips.
"Open your eyes." Rai said.
A brief swish of wind was the only sound they could heard at that moment. Suddenly, the kitten started wriggling its body on Seira's palm and flashed its eyes.
"Mmiiaaaooooo!"
The kitten jumped off from Seira's hands and they're all now watching the tiny creature stand on its paws, rub its face and walk around their feet. Few moments passed, Rai started to walk again followed by the relieved younger nobles.
Seira brought the kitten all the way home. Didn't mind what would be Frankenstein's reaction if he sees the dirty little cat.
"Welcome home, my lord..." the cheerful Frankenstein said as he set down the teacup on the center table.
"...and welcome home to you two... huh?". Frankenstein's sight fell onto Seira's arms. Before his raging glare could kill the kitten and before his dark spear aura emanate, Rai interrupted him.
"Seira saw him on the street... he's just barely healing." He explained as he sat down on the couch and reach for his teacup. Rai glanced at the kitten and Frankenstein followed his sight.
"Ah, such kindhearted student you are, Miss Seira. As expected from the leader of the Loyard family." Frankenstein said as he retreated his dark aura.
Being complimented feels nice...
Haaa... furs... scratches... my elegantly upholstered sofa set... master... my house...
"We're here..." said Tao as he loosened his necktie, followed by Takeo and M-21.
"Eh? Miss Seira? You got a pet?" He continued.
Tao hurriedly approached the kitten and gently scooped it with his hands from Seira. He sat on the floor unconsciously right beside Rai's feet. He curled the little kitten and gently lifted up and down.
"How did you get here? Huh? You precious dirtied little one? Who did this to you?" Tao asked, addressing the kitten.
"W- we just found him on the street. Injured..." Regis answered. He glanced at Takeo and M-21 then back at Tao who's now busied himself from cuddling the furball on his hands.
M-21 kept his eyes on Tao. He and Takeo sat on the couch right across the two younger nobles and realized that this kitten's somewhat just like them, enhanced humans living together with these nobles and Frankenstein. Abused, injured and experimented against their will- before... until they found a home.
"Awww.. you're just like us, aren't you? Huh, little Master? Injured and abused by bad-hearted humans, aren't you?" Tao said. Gently rubbing his nose against the kitten's face.
"Mrrroow?"
By hearing this sound that seemed like echoed throughout the whole house, all attentions are now on the kitten. Even Rai placed his teacup down the saucer, as well as Seira and Regis. M-21 and Takeo leaned forward in unison and rested their elbows on their legs.
"Awwwww.. you're so freaking adorable!" Tao rubbed his cheeks against the kitten.
"Miiiiiiiwww?"
"Awww~ he's purring! He's contented!~ yes! Yes!~ you are loved, little Master!~" Tao giddily continued.
"Mrraaoongg?"
"Ehmm... little Master? Why... 'little master'?" the curious Takeo narrowed his eyes at Tao.
"Ehm.. I just thought of it. Haha!~" the computer geek replied.
"I saw it on the internet long ago. They said that dogs have 'masters' and cats have 'slaves'. That 'masters' and 'slaves' are humans... I mean pet-lover humans, so I called him Little Master." Tao explained cheerfully.
"So, you are... a pet-lover?" M-21 asked.
"I... guess so~ well, anything for this adorable furry little angel... anything for the innocent ones like him... right, Little Master?" Tao answered as he rubbed his cheeks again on the kitten's furry body.
"Of course that can't be true. And you think that one is going to stay here?!" Frankenstein disagreed with pride and even tried to laugh inwardly.
Rai's 'longing-to-touch-this-furball-on-Tao's-hand' look became 'cold-and-steady' stare when he looked at Frankenstein.
M- master? D- does he want the cat to stay here too?
"Can we keep him?" Seira asked.
"O- of course. I- I suppose we can keep him... ha ha ha!" Frankenstein halfheartedly declared.
Haaaa... master... my house...
By hearing this, Rai's face lighten up. To hide his smile and the faint blush on his cheeks, the Noblesse lifted his teacup and took a sip.
"Aren't you gonna need cat stuffs for him? Get him checked by the vet or whatever?" M-21 asked.
"Hmmm... you're right~ you're right~ now that you mention it, why don't you come with me and buy those things for Little Master first? Then I'll look for the best veterinarian through the internet and make an appointment and then you and Takeo can accompany Little Master tomorrow after work? Hm?~ Watcha think...?" Tao said.
"...ah, Miss Seira? Can you hold him for a moment?" He continued as he stood up and handed over Little master to the Loyard family leader.
"Err.. I- I'm not going. You're on your own..." M-21 said as he leaned his back and crossed his arms on his chest. And when he's just about to blink, Tao grabbed his hand as well as Takeo's.
"Hey! I'm not going!" M-21 protested.
"Na ah~ we're all in this together~ please excuse us for a moment. Hahaha!~" Tao said giddily. Dragging his comrades out through the front door.
Haaaa... my house... oh, my house...
Frankenstein stood still beside Rai. His eyebrows almost intersecting to one another, his face looks so displeased and if only his dear master wasn't there, he would have summoned dark spear moments ago and killed Tao and M-21 thousand times for suggesting those cat stuffs. Lucky for them, the Noblesse also want the kitten to stay with them.
After few hours of shopping, the trio finally came back. M-21 carrying the 4 feet tall- 3 feet wide cat tower, Takeo with three large bags of cat food and toys and-
"Hey ya Little master!~ I've got something for you~" the cheerful Tao said as he dig his hand into his pocket for the laser pointer.
"Yeah. You can thank me later for making me carry this stupid tower!" M-21 growled. Placing the cat tower beside Regis' seat.
"Here, your toys." Takeo followed.
"Thanks guys. You're the best comrades I've ever had~" Tao said. His eyes darted to Little Master and his back against his comrades. Sweat drops running through his face.
Tao sat on the floor once again, holding the laser pointer. Now ready to ignore the people around him and Little master for a while.
"Little Master~ wiss-wiss-wiss-wiss~ " Tao called.
The kitten flinched and jumped from Seira's lap. Now on the floor, eagerly chasing the red dot. Tao and Little master caught the whole Frankenstein household once again. Frankenstein's colliding eyebrows are now gone, so as Takeo and M-21's furious glares. They are now replaced with hidden smiles and amusement. Yeah, he could do this everyday.
Chapter 2 is up next!
A/N: Sorry for the brutality that Little Master had suffered, guys! That was based on my experience of how I got my first cat (that was year 2002, hihi!), I saved him from the bunch of children that're trying to kill him. (But of course, I didn't save him using superpowers like Rai did, haha!)
