AN: Only I could get angst in a humor fic. Sorry. I tried to be funny but this one went where it wanted to. But there is a bit of humor, too!
Neko Boiz Ending B: Cat-boys (AKGaston's batch of mini-angst)
A bell sounded as someone pushed the ringer for the door. WuFei's eyes widened. "The Doctors..." he said, scampering to the door.
Quatre raised an eyebrow, following. "WuFei, you just scampered."
The accused cat glared over his shoulder. "I ran. RAN. Being in this form made it APPEAR that I scampered. I would never do such a thing."
Duo craned his head, looking at the doorknob- two and a half feet over his head, then down at his paws- with their lack of opposable thumbs. "So how do we get the door open?"
Heero walked over to Duo and climbed on his back. "Hey! Careful there! What are you doing?"
Heero ignored Duo's complaints. "Trowa?" The deep blue-eyed cat intoned.
Needing no further prompting, Trowa climbed up the other two and opened the door, gripping the knob between his paws and rotating.
"Hello?"
Not one of the doctors, but Relena. The leader of the free world stared at the cats standing on one another. The trio stared back. She glanced at the two cats on the ground. "Cats?"
"Maxwell, the onna is thicker than you!" WuFei hissed as they descended from their pile. Heero glared at the small black and white for that.
Relena stared at the cats.
The cats stared at Relena.
"Are you Quatre's?"
"Why does everyone think we're mine?" the Fluffy-One wondered aloud, but only the pilots understood him.
The large Tiger Cat walked over to the Queen of the World, sniffing. It began to rub itself against her skirt. She knelt and scratched it behind the ears. "Hello kitty. Do you know where the boys are?"
Tiger Cat merely blinked its eyes.
Relena smiled. "You remind me of Heero."
One of the cats made a sound that sounded suspiciously like a snort. Tiger Cat began purring. Tabby Cat ran up to it, almost as if it wanted to check it out. Black Cat swatted at Tabby Cat, and Tabby started running to and fro. Picking up the Tiger Cat, Relena addressed the others. "My, what a bunch you are. Are any of you hungry? Let's find something for you to eat."
"No, damn it, I am not hungry! Relena! Please!" Duo placed his paws on her skirt. "Listen to me!"
She smiled down at him. "Hold on just a minute. You must belong to Duo or Quatre, if you are this hungry."
Duo let go as she entered the kitchen, placing a content looking Heero-neko on the table. The braided cat-boy's ears drooped, as did his tail. "She doesn't understand me."
WuFei squeezed his shoulder. "It's ok, Duo. We'll figure something out."
"No cat food and five cats? What are they thinking?" She laughed, still looking through the cupboards. "Probably one of Duo's half thought out schemes."
Said cat bristled in rage. Extending his claws, he crept towards Relena's exposed leg. Quatre blocked him and Heero hissed from above. "It isn't worth it."
"I just-! Man!" the violet-eyed one's fur was still bristling as he stormed out of the kitchen, with WuFei following.
Quatre looked at the departing two, then up at Heero, who was purring once again as Relena pet him. "This is really weird. Duo is fighting mad, Heero is happy; WuFei is... well... just plain acting odd. What is going on?"
Trowa shrugged, nuzzling Quatre. "It really isn't anything we can worry about, Quatre. Maybe it is just part of the change. Nothing we can do about it right now."
Quatre's jaw dropped. "Even you Trowa?"
The brown cat-boy was playing with Quatre's golden curls and the ears hidden within. "What?"
The smaller cat reached up to hold his lover's paws still. "Is this like you?"
Trowa smiled down at him, kissing the tip of his nose. "I always wanted to do that."
Quatre blinked, then looked up at Heero again. He was fully enjoying a tummy rub from Relena, purring like there was no tomorrow.
Or... like he had never had the chance to before.
Quatre's eyes widened as he understood. "This is us, isn't it? What we never let ourselves do before?"
"I think it's something like that."
"The inner self..." Quatre's voice trailed out. "...Revealed by being cats?"
"Is that so hard to believe?" Bright blue met green. "Have you ever seen a cat lie?"
Quatre's tail dipped. "Then why aren't I any different?"
Trowa wrapped his arms around his koi. "You were always a lot more honest with yourself and everyone else then the rest of us were. Duo, although he may not have lied, hid a lot."
"Humans do tend to make everything too complicated, don't we?"
Trowa smiled. "Sometimes you talk too much Quatre." He murmured before kissing the smaller cat.
Relena smiled at the two licking and nuzzling cats. "Well aren't they sweet!" She turned to the large tiger. "I couldn't find an ounce of cat food, but I did find some tuna. I'll just take care of you 'til the boys come home." She smiled, eyes shining.

If you haven't already, go ahead and choose another ending. If you want to, only, of course. The other endings are funny! Really! I can't just work without angst! Wah!! I'm done now! Really!
