For two years Izaya dissapeared from Ikebukuro. No one knew what happened his stuff was never touched. His sisters even began to worry. Shizuo hated this. People would always ask him if he knew about the man's disappearance but he told them the truth. He didn't know.
It's now autumn(fall) and cold outside. A few weeks ago a rumor began about a bakeneko (Japanese yokai cat) being seen around the park at night. Shizuo didn't really care about that but people began staying away from the park. Bakeneko are known for eating humans and curse them. It has a lot of trees two of them were apple and some mint bushes were popular among the youth.
One witness said he tried to approach it but the monster scratched him. The police tried to figure out what was going on but they always ended running away.
Today was the two year anniversary of Izaya's disappearance. Shizuo was just minding his own business working with Tom. Suddenly a familiar smell reached his nose. It couldn't be.
"Shizuo are you alright?," Tom asked.
"Sorry but I have to see something,"he told him and ran to the direction of an abandoned building.
"OK, We're done for today anyway!"
Once inside Shizou followed the scent to a very dirty looking room. It had boxes, old furniture and some trash lying around. It was quite warm which made him take off the hat he was wearing at the moment. "Is this where people just dump their broken furniture?" He heard breathing. Slowly and quietly he walked in the darkness.
Something ran under one of the couches. He crouched to peak only to see a pair of glowing cat eyes looking at him. The growling of a panther scared him.
"Leave," the voice growled. He knew the owner.
"Izaya?," he said.
There was a shudder of fear. "Who are you?! How do you know name?!"
"Don't you recognize me? It's Shizuo."
"No." Shizuo could tell he was being honest. He lifted the couch then gasped in horror. Izaya had cat ears, tail, and was dress in nothing but a dirty lab coat. His had gotten longer. Suddenly he felt such something scratch his leg. Izaya's hand became cat like and scratched him!
"Izaya you little shit!"
The black haired man ran to a hole too small for Shizuo. It wasn't that long but it was long enough so Shizuo couldn't reach him. "Get away from me!," Izaya shouted. The blonde looked in the hole. "Come out, I understand you're scared but you need to come with me."
"Why?"
"A lot of people are worried about you."
"Like who?"
"Your parents, your sisters, Shinra, Celty, even me."
Izaya dove himself into Shizou's arms. "Warm, Nya~."
