A Not so Normal Day of School

As the trio made there way through the city streets they saw many people with varying amounts of infection. It was weird yet somewhat acceptable environment. At one time the group noticed a group of kids playing soccer, only some of them were bare foot or pawed depending on you interpretation, others were shirtless so their fur could breathe, while still others ran on all fours. It was an interesting soccer game, but the group did not stay long enough to see who won. The threesome each had their own unique experience along the way to school. Daisuke saw a fruit stall owner slice an apple with his claw to prove the apple was fresh. Satoshi's tail ended up getting him several phone numbers from several cute cat girls. Towa-chan saw a small catgirl fall into a fountain and helped her clean up and dry off. The threesome finally made it to the trolley station, stepped inside, and waited for the trolley to start up.

As the trolley made its way up the hill Daisuke heard a yawn and realized Dark had finally woken up. "Good morning sleepy, how are you doing?"

"Not bad," said Dark as he scratched his back, only to start screaming in pain. Dark put his hands in front of him and saw they were now cat paws with claws. "Okay, now I'm not doing so great." Daisuke started to laugh then Krad joined in.

"Dark Moussy, the only phantom thief who would actually cut himself with his own claws," mocked Krad.

Dark quietly held in his anger as long as possible till finally countering with, "Well at least I don't look like a Naruto cosplayer!"

Krad slowly lifted his hands up to cheeks and felt his new whiskers. Krad screamed, "Nooooooooooooooooo!" and quickly ran to the nearest corner and sulked.

Daisuke turned and said, "Dark, stop and get along with Krad."

Dark meekly replied, "Hey, he started it…"

Daisuke tuned out the rest of Dark's rant and focused on the rising sun. The sun was at the perfect angle. The shadows stretched as if wanting to touch each other while the sea almost looked white from the light shining off of it. Daisuke just stood there looking out the window and enjoyed the beauty of the seaside town for sometime till Satoshi walked up and stood next to him. Satoshi said, "Beautiful isn't it?"

"Yes."

"We must save this town."

"Yes," was all Daisuke could say before the trolley came to their stop. As the trio left the trolley, Daisuke looked up to see Risa Harada and froze at what he saw. Risa was still as cute as ever except for the dark brown tail slowly running out from a hole in her skirt and brown cat paws for hands. Risa's once long sleeve sweater was now a half sleeve mess which was probably caused by her thrusting her cat paw hands through the sleeves. The other change was that Risa was wearing her usual knee high white socks, but without shoes. Daisuke stared and tried to comprehend what he saw. The love of his life was changing into a cat, and he could do nothing to stop it. As Risa raced away to make sure she wasn't late, Daisuke fell to his knees in shock. Satoshi slowly walked up, helped Daisuke to his feet, and said, "We have to save her to."

Daisuke calmly replied, "Yes, Yes we do." Daisuke, Toto, and Satoshi started the long walk to school. About half way to the school Daisuke turned to Satoshi and asked, "Hey Satoshi, when I woke up this morning I had cat fur on my chest. What changes happened to you last night?"

Satoshi calmly replied, "Oh, my lower legs were covered in fur." Soon the threesome were at school where everywhere you looked you could see the effects of the virus. Several girls walked by with full cat faces, others went by with paws, and still others went by with practically no changes that the trio could see. The one common link between all the students was that no one was wearing a pair of shoes; some people were in socks, but no shoes. Daisuke, Satoshi, and Towa-chan recognized this and decided to ditch their shoes to better fit in with the crowd.

As Daisuke, Satoshi, and Toto walked into the classroom, Daisuke wondered how he was going to get Toto passed the teacher when out of nowhere the teacher appeared. Daisuke quickly stuttered out, "Oh, hello sensei. How are you today?"

"I'm fine thank you though I do have a question for you."

"Really? What is it?"

"Will you sister be joining us today?"

"Sister?" questioned Daisuke. The teacher calmly spun Daisuke around and pointed at Towa-chan who was busy talking with some other schoolgirls and showing off her fur. Daisuke was in a little shock, but realized he could use this. "Why yes, my sister will be joining us today. Her name is Towa, Towa Niwa, but she prefers to be called Towa-chan."

"Alright then," replied the teacher as she turned to her students. "Students, in case you have not realized it yet, we have a new student today. Her name is Towa Niwa, Daisuke's sister. Please give her a helping hand and make her feel welcome." Just then the bell rang for class to begin.

As the students took their seats Daisuke finally saw Riku Harada. She had a tail like her sister except Riku did not have paws for hands; instead Riku was barefoot/paw and had a nice reddish brown fur all over her feet and lower legs. Daisuke quickly turned toward the teacher and thought to himself, "Today is not going to be a normal day."

As the school day went on there was no real difference from a normal school day except for a few events. Several times throughout the day the teacher would ask a question and instead of getting an answer the student would meow. Some how the meow was always the right answer. There were also several unique noises that wouldn't normally occur during your average school day. From the purrs from students sleeping to the occasional ripping sound as clothing gave way to new cat appendages acquired by some students. One other event worth mentioning was a student received a detention. What was his crime? Playing with a yarn ball outside of yarn ball time. When this event occurred, both Daisuke and Satoshi performed perfect anime face falls.

When the bell rang for PE Daisuke and Satoshi went to the boy's locker room and changed into their red shorts and white t-shirts. As Daisuke put his white t-shirt in the nearest locker, after having remembered how uncomfortable a shirt felt over his fur, his feet started to tingle. The feeling was similar to when your foot has been asleep for a while and starts to tingle all over. Daisuke really didn't notice and decided to run out in his socks and play soccer. Satoshi, Takeshi (now a whiskered cat boy with brown paws for hands and feet), Daisuke, and other boys were playing against the girls. As Satoshi ran forward and kicked the ball in for a goal, he to felt a strange tingling feeling on his legs. Once the feeling subsided Satoshi looked down to see both of his legs, from sock level to thigh level, were covered in light blue fur. Daisuke noticed this and started to wonder what had happened to his feet. When the boys came in from a 5-4 victory Daisuke slowly removed his socks to see an odd sight. Both of his feet had morphed into three toed, red fur covered cat feet. Daisuke was a little shocked at first but caught himself before making a scene. He decided to go sockless for the rest of the day to make sure he did not stick out and because he knew his feet would be to hot.

The rest of the day went on as normally as possible. Risa gained a pair of cat feet/paws and quickly removed her socks so they could breathe better. Riku's leg fur spread all over her legs, while Takeshi grew a tail. Towa-chan eventually reunited with Daisuke and Satoshi and instead of not having socks on she was pretty much the exact same as when she had walked into school.

When the final bell rang for the day Daisuke, Satoshi, and Towa-chan walked out of the school and started their trek back home. As they walked Towa-chan opened up with, "Oh Daisuke, your feet look so cute." Daisuke didn't really pay attention to this and continued to walk. Towa decided to get down to business and asked, "So did either of you discover anything important?" Both of them thought for a few silent minutes and then shook their heads. Tow-chan was a little disappointed but smiled and said, "Well while your guys were doing nothing, I managed to find out where Vormare is hiding."

Both Daisuke and Satoshi turned to her and said, "You have our attention."

Towa-chan cleared her throat and started, "Well I was talking to the teacher and she told me that "lord Vormare" , as she called him, is residing in …" Daisuke and Satoshi stood still waiting for her to finish.

That is when they saw the fear in her eyes and turned to see three armed guards. One was wearing a knight's suit of armor, another was holding a cross bow, and another was wearing a suit and tie. All three guards were humanoid cats with tails, claws, sharp canines, and full coats of fur. Daisuke took a fighting stance and prepared for combat when he saw Satoshi standing still. Daisuke whispered, "Hey Satoshi, you okay?"

"It's him," replied a shocked Satoshi.

"Who's him?"

"Kei Hiwatari, My Father."
