Vegeta's Cat

~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~

With a long and luxurious stretch, the creature known to herself as Zaymi opened sleepy eyes. Mmmmmmm, she thought. Another day to revel in life. Young as she was, the furry animal had already settled into a daily routine. Casting a glance backward at her sleeping pets, she hopped off the bed and sought out her early morning meal.

Zaymi padded silently through the large dwelling. These creatures I've chosen certainly like their space. She noted. A delicious scent awaited the feline as she came near the kitchen. Ah, she thought. My pet's mate has remembered me again. I must be sure to reward her. She turned into the room and found her bowl by the door. An electronic device dispensed warm milk into the container when it registered her presence. A purr of delight escaped the cat's throat as she eagerly lapped up the treat.

When she was sated, she turned her attention to her chosen task for the morning: rewarding her pet's mate. She crept through the small door that let to the garden and sought an appropriate treat. There! A slight rustling in the grass indicated that a foolish field mouse had come into her range. Slowly…slowly…she crouched into attack position. NOW! She pounced and proceeded to crush the life out of her prey. Satisfied, Zaymi held her head high and marched back indoors.

My pet has chosen his mate wisely. "Woman" shall be most pleased that I have honored her with a gift. The feline gently placed the dead rodent on Bulma's sleeping stomach. Movement below caught her attention. OH NO! The beast is here again! The cat thought frantically. Something shifted beneath the covers on Vegeta's side of the bed. The Saiyan mumbled in his sleep and shifted his feet. How DARE the creature attempt to attack MY pet in MY home! With a fierce growl, the cat pounced on the mound and began chewing. The covers moved and the feline attacked again more viciously than before.

"What the HELL?!" Vegeta hissed as a fang pierced his big toe. He reached down and grabbed the furball by the scruff of the neck. "BAKA! Leave my feet alone!" The cat regarded her pet curiously. Obviously, he is too foolish to realize the danger he was in. She thought as she found herself unceremoniously dumped on the floor. The Saiyan grunted and returned to his sleeping. By the time Zaymi had jumped back on the bed, it was too late. The Prince had tucked his feet under his wife's legs. The cat was disgusted. Each time she had come close to killing the creature that appeared at the foot of the bed, it mysteriously disappeared.

There were better things to do anyway; down the hall was a lovely room filled with paper waiting to be shredded. Zaymi had just about gotten the entire roll of toilet paper butchered when a piercing shriek hailed from the master bedroom. Ah, the feline thought, she definitely LOVED it.
