There was something peculiar about the cat that Severus just couldn't put his finger on. There was something off.

It wasn't just that the cat was as big as a medium sized dog.  And it wasn't just its red markings, like a Siamese cat.  Flame point.

No.  It might have been the cat's blue, blue eyes.  So blue you could drown, as blue as the center of a flame.

The cat's gaze held him in place. 

:Vkandis has use for followers, even in this world.:

World?  Severus blinked, and hoped that the cat would disappear like the figment it was.

Professor Granger did a double take as the Potions Master fled the great hall with the cat stalking after him.  There was something very strange about that cat.  She could have sworn the thing called her "little one" as is went past her, but surely not.  It was just a cat.

Yes. Just a cat.  She kept telling herself.  Repeatedly, but she didn't believe it for a second.

There was something decidedly not cat-like about that feline.  There was the frightful human-intelligence beneath its eyes, and the way it purposefully stalked Severus. 

She headed to the library, at a run.

Severus Snape hid in the closet.  It wasn't something he would normally have done, but it was the only place he could get away from that blasted cat.  It just would not leave him alone.  It was always following him.  It was always in his head, always jabbering about Vkandis Sunlord this, Vkandis Sunlord that.

He sighed in relief, until he spotted the glowing pair of eyes across from him.

:  You didn't play hide-and-seek much as a child did you? :

Severus burst out of the closet in a flutter of robes, followed closely by a blur of fur.

Hermione watched the pair run down the hall in a blur of black robes and fur, and blinked a couple of times accessing the situation.  She briefly wondered how trouble seemed to follow Severus around.  She had just been on her way to find Severus, but from what she just saw it might be a long wait. She sat the pile of Mercedes Lackey books in front of his door; shook her head. 

After all there are more things in heaven and earth then even Snape knew.

She just hoped that this Vkandis-thing didn't get the Potions Master killed.

Severus glowered at the cat from over the top of his book.  It was currently curled up in front of the fire.

:I'm not a cat.:

 "You look like a cat."

:I'm an Avatar of Vkandis.:  The FireCat added haughtily.

"You are still a cat."

:I'm not.  I am a being of magic and spirit.:

The Potions Master snorted.  "You're a cat." He drawled.

: I have more magic in my paw then you have in your entire body.:

"Yes, but you are still a cat."

:I am more then just a cat.:

 "You are certainly more annoying then one."

: Yes, you should step through the gate with me.:

"Have you not been listening to me? Stupid Cat."

:You would like it in Karse.:

"I Am Not Walking through that thing, Cat."

:I'm Not a cat.:

Hermione pinched the bridge of her nose, looking back and forth between the FireCat and the Potions Master. "Oh, for the love of Circe, would you two shut up.  I am tired of you two squabbling like children."

She turned to Severus, "You Will Stop calling him a cat, Ceari is not a cat. You know he is Not a cat! So Stop!"

Hermione whirled back around and bent down till she was looking Ceari in the eyes.  "And you will stop trying to abduct my husband, is that Clear?"

The cat blinked.  :As Crystal.: 

Hermione stiffed. "Fine then.  Glad that is resolved.  Now,  do you think we could have a meal in peace this time?"  She glared at both the cat and the wizard, before stomping off to go get some food.

:Maybe I should have chosen her instead, she's scary.:

The Potions Master listened to the Hermione in the other room ordering food.  "You don't even know the half of it."
