Chapter 2

Adapting

It had been about a day since Jack had become a cat warrior and honestly it sucked. Don't get him wrong, that nap with Chase? Heavenly, But everything else had been annoying to say the least. Chase had awoken and placed on the floor before walking Jack could not get used to walking as a catt no matter how hard he tried and he had tried. At least his legs were short so there wasn't far to go before he hit the ground but, being Jack he couldn't just hit the ground. First he had to run into a wall and nearly fall down some stairs and trip over some other cat's tail before he hit the ground, on his back. Jack was now a mess of bruises and being carried like a kitten to the cat living quarters and he was pretty sure most of the cats were laughing at him. One sympathetic female tiger, Aura, took pity on him and he now apparently lived with her and her cubs, in what he was pretty sure was a nursery room, as he got used to being a cat. He was surprised to find that he could understand them as well. The soft growls of "This way Jack" and "A little bit less weight on your hind legs." Really helped Jack to figure out what he was doing and in three hours he could walk albeit on shaky legs. He proudly walked around Aura, who taught him, and she nuzzled him in approval. "For one who is not a warrior you learn quickly Jack." It was the first time Jack had gotten honest praise from one from whom he could feel no ulterior motives. He purred in happiness and proceeded to try to nuzzle her back only to trip over his freaky paws which made her chuff in amusement. Jack stood back up and shook himself before hearing his stomach growl. He looked up rather embarrassed and watched as she turned around with her tail motioning for him to follow. Jack was curious as he carefully followed. He had always wondered what Chase's cats ate or if they ate at all. Jack was a little bit excited to learn something more about Chase, even if it was just about his cats.
What he hadn't expected was the room he walked into which had been clearly created by magic. There was a small stream that lead to a body of water bigger than a pond but smaller than a lake. It was surrounded by rooms that lead to different environments all filled with prey. Rabbits, fish, deer, you name it and if it could be hunted it was there. The deer were especially fun to watch as it seemed that though they were in a compressed space they could still run and be chased as if they had all the room in the world. Jack was rather amused that for the cats eating was a training exercise. Jack knew right away he would not be hunting big prey he himself being practically a kitten. So he headed towards the stream. Jack had always had an affinity for water. Swimming, Ice Skating, Snowboarding, Skiing, you name it he tended to do it pretty well. So it was without pause that he jumped into the cool water and watched as the fish went by calculating in his head what it would take to catch one.

Flashing colors darted beneath the water and Jack decided it would be easier to catch the fish if he headed towards the pond. He didn't notice that many of the cats had stopped to watch him with calculating eyes many were annoyed that Jack had joined their ranks others were simply wondering what he could do and a few were watching because they were worried that Jack would drown. They watched as Jack swam out to the middle of their little lake and paused he swam in place for a bit seemingly waiting for something. With no warning Jack was suddenly gone barely a ripple on the surface of the pond to show he'd gone under. All of the watching cats tensed as the waited and waited and waited. Aura was especially worried and she took a step towards the pond only to find Jack emerging with a fairly large fish in his jaws. There were some growls of approval as Jack dragged his catch out of the water and over to Aura. He seemed steadier on his feet now as he placed the fish in front of her. Aura looked at him in surprise. Jack, knowing she was probably about to refuse growled "It is a thank you." And before she could refused was back in the water diving under for his next catch.

When he came back Aura had eaten half of the fish and apparently was planning to take the other half to the kittens. Jack settled down to eat his own meal and found that as a cat raw fish wasn't bad. He had barely gotten his second bite in when the fish was snatched by a playful young panther. Jack sighed. He was too hungry to be playing but he figured that this was probably some kind of training as well and so he hauled himself up and began to chase after the panther as it dodged ran and taunted him. When Jack decided enough was enough He began to herd the young panther towards the stream. When he felt the panther was close enough Jack jumped forward claws extended an gave a frightful yowl. The panther dropped the fish as he jerked back, right into the shallow stream. Jack landed right in front of the fish, having never intended to hit the panther himself, and after checking to make sure the stream was as shallow as he had thought it to be, Jack strutted off with a flick of his tail, his newly retrieved fish held proudly in his teeth. He felt he had done well if the amused chuffs were any indication. Maybe he had a small chance of being accepted after all, Jack was excited. He wondered what that would feel like as he ate his meal.

Later Jack was sleepily wandering around the palace looking for a place to nap. A nice warm place though no where could be as warm and comfy as Chase's lap. Jack wondered if Chase would let he do it again. With that thought Jack headed towards the throne room in a determined fashion. He wanted a nap and he wanted Chase lap and honestly the worst Chase could do was say no, right?
He found Chase looking into his spying eyeball probably Omi stalking again. It was always about Omi. Jack walked up to the front of the throne and pawed at Chase's leg to get his attention.

Chase was bored. Chase was so bored he was watching Wuya watch herself in the mirror undoubtedly thinking that she was attractive. Usually if he was this bored he would be watching Jack, who was always amusing to watch but Jack was a cat now and not a boy working on a new machine while muttering giddly how much it would impress his idol and how he would finally beat Omi for Chase's attention. Chase dismissed the eye and thought about calling for Jack to see if he could be nearly as entertaining as a cat when he felt a paw on his leg causing him to look down.
"Why hello Jack, figured out how to walk have you?" Jack kitten, as Chase came to call him in his head, purred as he reached down to pet him gently on the head. What could he say, he had a fondness for cats.
"Why did you seek me out little one?" Jack answer was to leap up and settle purring into Chase's lap causing Chase to chuckle. Jack was nearly as entertaining as a cat as he was when he was human. No one else would dare take this liberty with him but Jack did it without thought as though it was natural to be curled up like a house cat in the Chase Young's lap being pet and purring sleepily. Chase relaxed though he hadn't realized he'd been tense, Jack was a wonder. Chase leaned back and let himself meditate as he continued the soothing motion of petting Jack. It had been a while since he had been so relaxed-
"Shen Gon Wu Chase let's go!" Ahh and there was the bane of his immortal existence. Not only had Wuya's shrieking voice undo all of the relaxation he'd built up but it startled his Jack kitten awake. The kitten hissed at the witch before leaping up to Chase's shoulders and draping himself there while glaring at the witch in distaste and annoyance. Apparently as much as he wanted to be as far from her as possible he was unwilling to leave Chase's person until ordered to do so, a fact which for some reason pleased Chase immensely. He pet and scratched the kitten soothingly in a effort to bring back his earlier good mood Jack purred but didn't relax completely as Chase addressed the witch.
"Why should I care if one of your magical toys has shown itself? I have no use for this one."
"Chase please must we do this everytime?"
"Must you shriek every time you open your useless mouth?"
Wuya opened said useless mouth to reply but Chase, clearly done with the conversation, proceeded to teleport them to the wu's location.
When they arrived Wuya immediately went searching for the wu, some useless thing that could let you throw your voice, Chase decided to casually observe this round. Predictably, the monks showed and quickly spotted Chase.
Omi:"Chase Young!"
Kimiko:"What are you doing here this wu isn't powerful."
Raimundo:"And what's with the cat? What you got to cold and needed a muffler?"
"That looks more like a kitty than a cat. Since when do "
Jack glared at the monks then snorted quietly.
Seriously, do they have to announce their enemy every time? I mean it's not like we wander around with amnesia and need to be reminded of our names every time we meet. And don't they have a wu to search for what's with all of the pointless questions?
Chase chuckled causing the monks to tense as he gave an extra pleasurable scratch to Jack kitten causing the kitten to be thoroughly distracted as it nuzzled him to the astonishment of the monks.
"Indeed, I am not the one the young monks should be worried about, but will it even matter now?"
With a gentle nudge to Jack kitten's chin he subtly directed his gaze towards the shine he had noticed in a tree right behind the monks. When he spotted it Jack gave an extra loud purr as if to agree with Chase before he leapt off of Chase's shoulder and onto Clay's hat startling Dojo. Dojo panicked and began to flail catching Jack on a foreleg. Jack yowled at the top of his Jack kitten lungs and chaos ensued between the dragon warriors. Clay stumbled into Raimundo Who fell on a screeching Kimiko and they all fell back towards Omi. Before they actually hit Omi Jack jumped up to a tree limb and climbed the tree grabbing the choker shaped wu in his mouth. Jack looked gleefully at the chaos he had caused before leaping and landing on a branch beside Chase and dropping the wu into his outstretched hand. All of this while the monks were a groaning heap on the ground. Jack purred in victory even as he began to lick at the shallow wound on his leg. Chase noticed the injury and gently picked Jack up placing him back on his shoulders. When Jack kitten reacted with surprise even as he settled himself comfortably Chase said quietly, "You must never show your weakness to an enemy. We will have much to speak of later my Jack kitten." While Jack was still reeling over the nickname, Chase turned his attention to the monks.
"It seems you still need more training young monks"
"You may have pushed the sheep onto our eyes but you will not so easily be the winner of the noontime!"
"That's pull the wool over our eyes and win the day Omi and as for the second one." Chase brandished the wu caling to Wuya before continuing. "I believe this means I have." And with that Chase and a whining Wuya disappeared leaving confused and embarrassed dragon warriors in their wake.

When they arrived Chase immediately sent Wuya away. "If you can't find a way to retrieve it yourself then you won't have it. Now get out of my sight I've had enough of your presence today."
Wuya huffed as she stomped angrily out of the room and Jack blew a kitten rasberry after her. He cut his tongue slightly but it was worth it to see her flinch.
"Now, Jack that is not at all how a dignified cat behaves we will work on that later for now Jack we shall clean that wound." With a snap of Chase's fingers Jack found himself in Chase's bedroom. Jack looked around drinking in everything he could as he was, surprisingly gently, plunked from Chase's shoulders and onto the bed. Another snap and Chas wasn't as huge as he had scene before, Jack was human again.
"I dislike wasting time so I shall get straight to the point. I want to train you Jack."
Jack looked at Chase in stunned silence forgetting for a moment that he could talk. He got his voice back as chase began to clean his wound with something that stung. Jack winced, "W-why would you want me? I mean it's such an honor and I'm grateful but why now?"
"The quick thinking and agility you showed in getting me this wu has proven that you have some potential. Also now that you're my warrior I prefer that you know how to defend yourself."
"Then I can really learn how to defend myself? How to help you?"
"Yes my Jack kitten. I will also be getting you your own lab. There is no point in wasting your talent but I must insist that you improve on the design of your Jackbots as well as using your genius to learn something other than robotics. It is good for you to be more knowledgeable in general. We shall make a schedule later do you accept?"
"Yes yes yes yes! I won't let you down Chase I promise you'll see I'll be the best student ever!"
"Excellent. We shall start early tomorrow for now," Chase snapped his fingers then sat on the bed and put the once again kitten Jack into his lap. "I think it is time for a nap don't you?" There was a swelling and release of magic and then Chase was in his sleepwear. As they settled on the bed and both drifted off to sleep all Jack could do was sleepily purr as he thought Being Chase's cat rocks!
