Chapter 2

England trotted next to America on the cold forest floor. They had been walking for at least five minutes trying to find the middle of the forest. It was pretty amazing though. The grass and moss was so soft, and they also saw a few deer scamper away when they walked by.

"Ve~, Germany, are we almost there?" Italy shook water droplets from his nose.

"Ja, maybe. The voice said go straight, then left…."

"MRRRROOOOWWWW!"

Everyone's heads perked up when a loud yowl echoed across the sky. England's eyes widened, "Did your hear that?" The others nodded and Italy shivered.

"Sounds like someone's being killed.." America shuddered.

"Mrrooww! Look at you!"

They turned when they heard a loud yowl again. The wind made the tall grass sway nervously.

"Should we check it out?" America mewed.

"Nein. They could be other cats we don't know, and they might be territorial. They could attack us." Germany meowed.

"Right. We don't know how to fight with claws and teeth anyway." England mewed. He looked down at his paws. How did they fight with these things?

"We should check it out. Someone could be in trouble." America meowed standing up.

"No America. We're going nowhere." Germany growled.

America dashed off anyway, leaving England to lash his tail and shriek in annoyance, "Are you fucking kidding me?!"

"AMERICA GET THE HELL BACK HERE! WE NEED TO STAY ON THE PATH!" Germany yowled.

He didn't listen. He kept running no matter what. Damn he was fast!

"I'll go after him," England snarled, "You guys stay here and wait for us. France, come with me."

"Very well. But if I die or get injured the blame is on you Angletrre." France growled with a smirk.

"Shut up and let's go!" England snarled dashing off through the bushes. France laughed and dashed after him, and they continued to run through the open forest.

England stopped for a minute, making France skid to a stop behind him. "D-did he go straight? Or did he turn?" England panted.

"I don't know! He's insane!" France panted.

England sighed. Suddenly, something caught his nose. It was a smell; and it smelled like….America. How did he know what America smelled like? Can all animals do this?

Oh right. Animals can smell scent.

"France, I smell America's scent. Do you?"

France sniffed the air and coughed. "Yep. Smells like old Hamburgers."

"Right. He went straight then. Let's follow it." England turned straight.

"Right." France replied. They continued to dash through the forest. England pushed tall grass out of his way and he heard France panting behind him. Eventually, they heard America's familiar laugh:

"Nahahaha!"

"This way!" England yowled. They continued straight. Eventually they walked through the ferns and came across a small area with soft grass and trees all around it. They pushed through the ferns and froze when they saw other cats.

"Hah! Look at your Nor! You're so fluffy!"

"Bro, You're annoying."

England eyes widened. "Nordics? Norway is that you?"

Norway lifted his head. "Yes. Hello England." He licked his paw and began to wash his chest. He shook his head and looked up, "Why are we cats?"

England was too distracted by the other Nordics. There was an orange and white cat poking Norway.

That's definitely Denmark.

There was a tall, dark blue-grey cat with a white chest protecting a small cream and white colored cat behind him. He actually had his tail wrapped around him

There's Sweden and Finland.

Then finally a small white cat peered around from behind Norway. It was a small white cat with a black circle around it's left eye.

And there's Iceland.

"England, you didn't answer me before. Why are we cats?" Norway repeated. England shivered to his question.

"Uh..Uh.."

"No need to explain. I know you did this. However, I don't know if there is a cure." Norway mewed. "By the way, did you hear a voice tell you to go to the middle of the forest?"

"Yes! Yes we did!" England mewed happily. He was happy they weren't the only ones that heard it.

"Oh. Then we should go," Norway began, "We were actually going to go but then your friend came here and began to make a large racket. Not that Den wasn't doing it already."

"What can I say? It was too quiet!" Denmark laughed.

"Can we go now?" Sweden snarled.

Everyone just began mewing randomly. Random conversations out of the blue, making a certain Finnish cat scared.

"Everyone shut up!" Finland howled, "We just have to get to the middle of the forest! Can we do that?!"

Everyone stopped and stared at him, their eyes widened. Finland immediately moved back and shivered. "I-I'm sorry," he began, "I didn't mean to yell."

"Nej. You got us all to stop fighting," Sweden mewed, "He's right though."

"Right," England mewed, "We should get going now."

"Do you know the way back?" Norway asked.

"Of course. Just follow the scent. Do you all know how to do that yet?"

They all sniffed the air. They nodded. "I smell Your scent and France's" Sweden meowed.

"And I smell my own." America mewed, "let's go."

England nodded and lead the way with France down the path.

"Germany we're back." England mewed, walking through the brush with the others.

"It's about time. We were worried about you….N-Norway? Nordics? Is that you?" Germany shivered.

"Yes it's us." Norway mewed, "I see you all art cats too."

"Yes, we are." Germany replied.

"Woah! Prussia, Spain, is that you?" Denmark padded over to the two cats.

"Ja!"

"Si!"

"Woah! What happened to your eye?!" Denmark eyed the white cat's wound.

"Stupid fox did it. But I fought it off, kesesesesese!" Prussia laughed.

"Oh my god." Germany's head drooped with embarrassment.

"I can fix that." Norway walked up to Prussia and sniffed his wound. "It'll scar though."

"Scar?! That's so cool!" Prussia exclaimed.

"OH MY GOD." Germany repeated.

"Shut up you bastards! Shut up!" Romano howled, "Ok, we're all together, but now what?! What do we do now?!"

Good point. What now?

~Meanwhile~

"Come on, keep walking." The white fluffy cat padded onward.

"Can't we rest?" the white and grey fluffy cat yawned, "I want to sleep."

"Come on, Greece. Keep moving." The white fluffy cat encouraged him.

"I always wanted to be a cat." Greece meowed.

"Yeah, so you could lick your own balls correct?" A deep mew of a brown cat came from behind Greece. He was lashing his tail and smirking as if he was pleased with himself.

"Shut up Turkey. You're the one with the bag over your head."

"SHUT UP OR I'LL SCRATCH YOUR EYES OUT!" Turkey howled sheathing his claws. His tail lashed.

"You wanna fight?"

"BRING IT."

"Enough, enough!" a big brown cat moved in between the two fighting cats, making the other two cats flinch, "Stop the fighting! We need to find out why we're here and why we're cats, da?"

"Russia's right," the white fluffy cat agreed, "let's get moving. The voice said to go to the middle of the forest, so that's where were going."

"Very well," Turkey growled lashing his tail. "Though I don't see why you have to be the leader Monaco. If anything, it should be me."

Monaco turned, her red ribbon swaying in the breeze. "Because I'm the only one making sense around here. Russia too." Russia blushed.

"So come on." Monaco lead the way through the ferns.

"Fine." Turkey mumbled, complaining small things under his breath as they walked.

~Meanwhile~"

"Ai-ya! I got bit by a mosquito~aru!" China howled.

"Please calm down!" Japan yowled, "Look, if we all put our heads together, we can think of something to d-"

"Heh heh! Keep wagging your tail old man! It's fun to play with, da-ze!" Korea padded at China's wagging tail, laughing loudly.

"Stop it,~aru!"

"Enough both of you! Teacher, shouldn't we go to the middle of the forest like voice said we should?"

"But….Taiwan…."

"Just ignore him," she narrowed her eyes at Korea, "come on, since you're so childish, I'll lead the way." She flicked her tail up high and lead the way through the bushes.

"Wait for me!" Korea cried, running after her and Japan following. Japan stopped and turned around to China, who was sitting down looking at his paws.

"What's wrong China?" Japan mewed.

"She-she called me childish~aru. I'm that childish~aru?" his eyes shook.

"No of course not. She just wants to lead us," Japan smiled, "Come on let's go."

"Fine~aru." He sighed following Japan.

"There you guys are," a female voice sounded from behind them, making them turn around sharply. A beautiful tortishell cat appeared from behind the bushes.

"Vietnam!" China cried, "You're here too?"

"Yes apparently so. Good thing I found you guys. I was worried I was the only country turned into a cat here. So England did this?" she mewed.

"That's what we think~aru." China growled.

"Not surprised," Vietnam rolled her eyes, "Where are the others?"

"They ran ahead already. We should catch up to them." Japan motioned his head forward.

"Right." Vietnam mewed. The cats ran through the bushes to catch up to Korea and Taiwan.

~Meanwhile~

"Ow! Liet! There's like a thorn in my paw!" Poland yowled.

"Relax. I'll pull it out for you." Lithuania walked over to Poland and grasped his teeth on the small thorn and pulled it out, making Poland squeak with pain.

"Th-thank you." He murmured.

"No problem." Lithuania smiled.

"Hey….Heeyy! Look who I found! I found Thailand!" A loud voice erupted from the bushes.

"Yeah. Unfortunately, I don't have Toto with me." He sounded sad.

"Oh come on mate! You'll be fine!" The loud voice laughed.

"Hey Australia, why don't you actually come out of the bushes with Thailand?" Lithuania mumbled.

"Great idea!" he replied. The white and orange cat obeyed and emerged from the bushes, followed by a black cat. "Hello!" Thailand seemed like he was trying to sound happy.

"What's wrong?" Lithuania mewed.

"I….couldn't find my siblings….if they're even here…." Thailand's head drooped, and his eyes shook.

Lithuania padded over to him. "It's ok. I'm sure we'll find them" Lithuania tried to make him feel better.

It worked. Thailand raised his head and his tears dried away, "Ok."

"There ya go, lad!" Australia laughed, "Hey what happened to New Zealand? He was here when I left!"

"He said he had to pee or something." Poland snarled.

"I'm here!" New Zealand jumped out of a bush, surprising them. "And look who I found!"
A small, brown female cat jumped out from the bush behind him. "I found Seychelles!"

"Hello!" she mewed happily, "Thank god I'm not the only one who turned into a cat!"

"Good to see you," Lithuania mewed, "Now, we should all go to the middle of the forest like the voice commanded us to."

"Ok. I'll lead the way!" Poland dashed ahead of them.

"Oh no! I'll lead the way!" Lithuania dashed in front of him.

"But, but Liet!-"

"I think you would just get us into trouble or take us the wrong way. Also, danger can pop out any moment, and I just don't want you to get hurt."

"….Fine." Poland mumbled. Lithuania lead the way through the forest.

~Meanwhile~

"Ok, there are a lot more of them now. Now we just wait for them to get to the middle of the forest." Ancient Greece said.

"Then what?" Rome asked.

"You'll see" she sighed.

"Very well." Rome replied.

~Meanwhile~

"We should just go to the middle of the forest now." England mewed, "Now."

"He's right." America mewed, "we should go now."

"I've finished," Norway meowed, "there's a scar."

"Wow! West, it looks so cool right?" Prussia meowed happily.

Germany had to admit, it did look cool. "Ja, it looks cool."

"Kesesesesse! See? I'm awesome!"

"Ok great. We should get going now," Germany nodded his head forward, "follow me." He walked ahead. Italy ran to his side and began to walk beside him.

England walked next to America. What awaited them in this vast, wide forest?

Author's note!

I saw that there were barely any Nekotalia fanfictions (Actually I've never read any) so I decided I should make one! I feel Nekotalia deserves some attention too. So that's why this is here! I hope you all like this chapter! XD
