The way back to Izaya's apartment was rather uneventful due to not a single person besides himself and Mikado being out in this weather. Izaya held the ice cold key in his hands as he tried to unlock the door while dealing with the protesting little cat in his jacket,"Now now Mikado, no need to get so feisty~" The raven haired man smirked as a plan formed in his mind. "If you want to leave so much go right ahead!" He opened the door and opened his jacket at the same time which only allowed Mikado to leap straight into Izaya's apartment. Mikado's bright blue eyes widened as he noticed just where he jumped. He tensed and tried to run back towards the door- only to have it close with a hollow slam directly in front of his face.

"Aww little Mikado ran into my home, that must mean he wishes to stay with me~"

The brunette's expression filled with fear and surprise as he stared up at Izaya's now growing smirk.

"I believe I'm going to enjoy this." Izaya slowly prowled over to mikado like a lion knowing his prey was trapped.

The neko's tail puffed out even more as he streaked across the floor to the safety under the couch.

The raven man followed little mikado while he laughed cruelly, "Oh mikado you don't seem to understand. You're my pet now. My toy. So there is no real escape."

Blue eyes swelled with the fear of understanding. There is no escape.

"Ah good now you seem to get it. Wonderful!~" His smirk widened,"Oh and by the way you can't stay under the couch forever, unless you plan on dying under there. Which I wouldn't suggest. It would smell god awful in here."

From his place of fear and shaking Mikado wondered, "How did this even happen…?" But then he remembered, even though there wasn't much for him to remember.

All he was doing was picking up food at the store, that's all really.. but someone grabbed him from the street and dragged him into an alleyway. Hands clasped over his eyes, his mouth, and his chest, resistance was futile but Mikado of course tried anyway trying to escape his captor. This captor threw him against the walls of the alleyway and rolled up one of Mikado's sleeves quickly and without any sign of patience. The boy's blue eyes widened to the size of dinner plates as a horrible thought caused him to panic.

"Th-they're going to r-rape me! N-no please no!" He looked up but the moon offered little solace as it was being eaten by the clouds that would soon drench Ikebukuro.

But that moment never came as a sharp pain shot through his arm- a vaccine...or rather.. "A-a drug..?!"...His vision began to blur as he blacked out and collapsed to the ground..Although just as his conscious drifted Mikado swore he could hear laughing and the squeak of a sharpie on cardboard.

By the time he awoke the 'medicine' had already taken effect and rain was pouring steadily on his now small head and sensitive ears. Events flashed by his eyes and a whirlwind of emotions swelled in his head and chest.

"H-help! Please someone help! P-please.." He cried out in vain-but the only thing humans could hear was the meowing of a lost and forgotten cat, not the human speech it was trying to convey...Fear took it's hold on the small boy. That was it did until Mikado heard the gentle splashing of someone walking through the puddles that littered the street,

"What would the Americans say..?..Ah..It's raining cats and dogs.."

"A voice that means people!" With that thought the new found neko cried out louder than ever. "Pllleaasse help me! Please come save me!" What he didn't realize at first though was how familiar that voice seemed to be, how dangerous the person saying it is, and that was his first mistake.
