"Oliver don't go in there!" Gene yelled as he ran to his brother. But it was to late he'd already opened the door. Before them stood the woman in black that they'd heard about. Grinning evil she grabbed both boys and disappeared along with them.

In a Dark Temple

The twins landed on a hard stone floor.

Ow! Wait isn't this the person we've heard about?

*Yes I believe so*

The woman approached them and pulled out a few strands of hair. "Ow!" Gene shouted clutching his head. "Oh shut up you'll be gone in a few minutes." she said as she through the herbs into a large pot.

"Something good is in our midst. In human form these spirits dwell. Make them animals sayeth this spell." The boys felt light headed all of a sudden. They blinked their eyes a few times before passing out.

Sometime Later

*Huh where the hell are we?*

Noll asked as he woke up first.

*Gene get up.*

Noll said flicking the body next to him with his…tail! "What the hell!" he yelled looking into the nearest reflective object, which happened to be a mirror placed for no particular reason in an alleyway.

In the mirror looking back at him was a black cat with blue eyes. "Great I'm a cat so I'm guessing Gene is." he turned around to see his brother still slept on in cat form. "Gene I said to get up did I not." Noll said flicking his brother again.

"Oh come on Naru I'm tired let me sleep." "Wake up you stupid cat!" "What? Cat!" Gene yelled waking up and running around in circles. "Stop running around in circles you look like an idiot!" Noll said walking off. "Hey wait up! Where are we?" Gene asked.

They looked around to find they weren't in a random alleyway but a bustling train station? "Well that's odd." Noll said as he walked around unaware they walked straight onto a train.

*I wonder…Gene.*

Well our telepathy still works that's good.

"Cats! Cats! Are on the train!" someone yelled.

Think she means us?

*Yes you dolt. Run.*

As they ran up and down the box car all the way to the next station where they were caught.

*Damn it*

"Hey those cats did nothing wrong!" a girl yelled stepping out of the crowd. She was a little younger than they were in human form. She had short ginger hair and chocolate brown eyes. "She's right. They're probably just lost." another said stepping foreword. This girl had long blonde hair and blue eyes. Out of the two she seemed to be the one who had a plan to help them.

"You have no right to tell us what to do." the conductor admonished. "Yeah well this says different." the second girl who had stood up for them said. The conductor looked at the paper before turning a pale color. "I'm so sorry miss. I had no idea you were with the humane society."

"Well now that you do know my colleague and I will be taking them now." the girl said picking Gene as her "colleague" picked up Oliver. Once they'd gotten outside each girl breathed a sigh of relief. "Humane Society? Did you conjure the paper or are you actually a part of it." the one that held Noll asked.

"I conjured it Mai. I don't have as much time as you seem to think." "Well Marsha all you do is go to school then come home and practice your craft." "Maybe so but it's important to me." "Yeah. Yeah. So what do we do with these guys?"

*Let us go maybe.*

Marsha looked around as if she had heard something. "What is it?" "Did you not hear that?" "Hear what?" "Someone asking to be let go."

I think she heard you Noll

"Okay who the hell is talking?" Marsha asked obviously scared. "Maybe no ones talking. Maybe they're thinking?" "Okay we're going home and then I'll consult with the book and you will watch the cats till we know what to do with them." "Marsha we don't have cat food." "Mai cats don't always eat cat food." Marsha said as they rounded the corner and up into an apartment building.

Holding Gene in one arm Marsha took out the key and opened the door. Once it opened the smell of spices and herbs hit them along with the smell of smoke? "Marsha burning incense and making those potions is not helping the smell." Mai commented as she set Naru on the floor and shut the door. "I know. But I can't help it. I don't fight that many demons but why am I stuck with the ones that always leave residue?" Marsha asked as she set Gene down.

*What are we going to do Gene?*

Well maybe we can get out when they're sleeping.

"There is goes again." Marsha said massaging her head.

*Stupid medium*

Idiot scientist

"Marsha your book." Mai said pulling down a fat old looking book. "Thanks Mai." she said before sitting on the couch and flipping through the book. "Watch this." Gene said jumping onto the table where she'd set the book down.

"What you want to look too?" she asked. Meowing a reply she smiled and patted his head. "Alright boy you can look." "How do you know it's a boy?" "I memorized all types of animal body types. These are male cats not to mention brothers." "Brothers." "Yeah. Well they're definitely related in one way or another." Marsha said as she put both cats on the counter.

"So I have telepathy now. Ain't that just the kicker." "So what you here peoples thoughts?" "Yes. I thought being an empath was going to suck. But now that seems like a safe haven compared to this." "Being a witch sucks."

"Shut up." Marsha said throwing a pillow at her friend. "Oh it's on!" Shrieking Marsha ducked anything and everything. Mai nearly got a shot but was deflected since Marsha used her powers. "No active powers unless I get one." "Your not part of my family. Well not biologically." "You little-" Mai said as she jumped on the girls back sending them both tumbling to the floor.

"Ow." Mai mumbled. "Your in pain? I'm the one who has had too many meetings with the floor." "Not my fault. Demons come after you not me." Mai said getting off of the floor. "I swear to the gods one of these day's I'll kill you."

"Marsha you've made so many empty threats it's not even funny." Mai teased. "Whatever I'm going to go change clothes while you start dinner." Marsha said. That's when they noticed that the girls' were wearing high school girl uniforms. The thing that got their attention the most was that the uniforms were the ones from the school that was right next to the one they were investigating.
