Thanks to all who reviewed finally I found a plot to work off (Yes sadly I walked into this blindly but your support as pushed me into ACTUALLY thinking of a plot) Right now I am watching the Cat Returns while I write this, and how I found my drive to write. Your support is welcomed and I love it please keep it coming.
Warning: I had to make a few OCs for the plot none of them of course will be an love interest for any of the cast of Cat Returns. I rightly don't believe in OC x Cast pairings. This is after all a Baron x Haru even if it takes a while. So don't kill me with flames or lack of reviews please. Jet… is Jet and well you will see. Have fun reading the latest chapter!
Behind Your Eyes:
Chapter three – Enter Jet
Haru stepped out of the little bath and shower duo, which of course was one thing she would never get used to. In Japan you had a bath then a shower and you would take one of each. Of course there were other small details she missed much more from her mother land. A small sigh left her lips as the publish writer glazed into the mirror.
Pale hands gently touched the top of her damp hair and fingered around a moment. Sometimes she would think once again that she had cat ears. Dark tan cat ears that sat on beautiful dark chocolate hair and whom would twitch with every emotion that came to mind.
"Get a grip Haru" The young woman muttered bitterly as she removed her hands. "Reality check." Haru checked to see if her hands were in fact fingered human hands and that everything was intact. "Good no paws."
As one more sigh escaped her lips the writer moved out of the bathroom her towel dress still on. Haru started to sing to herself as she moved to pick out a fresh pair of clothing and undergarments. Once they were chosen Haru quickly dropped the damp towel cover and changed. It was nothing too special, simple pair of black slacks and a loose button up blue blouse.
Haru fasten the last button before she hunted for a pair of shoes. Her last ones were soaked and most likely ruined 'damn rain' her mind muttered. At last she found her spare and slipped them on. She had one last thing to check and this time the rain won't catch her off guard.
The woman reached for a long black coat and slipped it on. As soon as she was fitted into it, Haru reached for the umbrella that sat near the door. After she gave it a good shake the writer snatched up her bag and hotel key.
Another descent down the evaluator and Haru was once again in front of the doors. Lucky or unlucky as it may be the rain had stop for a while and once again Haru cursed the rotten weather. It seems for her the weather has always been temper mental. She choked down a frustrated cry and marched out the door with a whole new resolve.
About three hours later, Haru found herself utterly lost. Her brown eyes darted back and forth, some how she ended up in an ally way. "How do I always end up in places like this?" She stifled a groan and thought about it. "What next an out law dog in the dog kingdom is going to wiz right by me and hot on his tails would be the dog's royal guard hunting him do-" That is when this day went bad to worse in a signal moment.
Baron let out a small grumble as he glanced around the dim room. He was here, he was sure he had the right address. Once again Baron found himself in the human world yet to do another human a favor. Not that he had anything against humans mind you but one seemed to hold certain memories for the statue. Ones that he wished not to dwell on too often.
"Are you….there…Baron?" An aged voice called out from the shadows of the chamber.
"Yes I am…Ma'am." The cat statue replied. "I have received your letter but I will ask how you mange to have it sent through the cross roads and to the Cat Burro later."
A dry giggle sounded through the room, "I was told once that all I needed to do was ask for help… or so I read in a beautiful story."
"A story?" Baron questioned.
"Yes… A wonderful story"
All she could remember later on was the blur of black and white fur which rammed into Haru's small frame. Then it, no He talked well maybe barked the details were a little fuzzy on her end.
"Get back or the human gets it!" She could hear his jaws chop together by her head. Then what Haru could gather his pursuers backed down some.
"Are you an utter idiot you outlaw! Just come back with us and face your punishment!" Maybe that voice was the leader of whoever was after this idiot. Well Haru had no other name for him or it maybe it was a girl? However, it sure did sound like a guy.
The creature as Haru would call it until the name was discovered nudged her body with his foot or paw damn this hurt her brain way too much. "Sit up girl and grab around me neck." It was a ruff command but she listened none the less, unsure of what would happen if she didn't. It would be all too late until Haru realized what was going to happen.
Haru let out a sudden scream as the dog began to run full speed straight into a wall! His speed increased until her whole body floated off the ground. 'How can a dog run this fast? What is he super dog!' As not to fly off and then backwards Haru latched herself tighter around the dog and up onto his back. 'I hope I am not too heavy…'
Luckily or unluckily as the case may be, like the last time a portal opened up in the solid stone wall. While the other dogs were hot on their tail they escaped into the wind 'funny cats and dogs have the same way of travel who would have thought' she thought warily in her mild panic.
After some time, brown eyes met the blue sky above and reached to cover them almost automatically. "so bright…" She calmly stated.
"Girlie are you alright?" It was a ruff but not unpleasant voice. At first Haru thought yet once again she was in the Cat Kingdom but that didn't make any sense. Plus the voice had a much more tender tone to it so it couldn't have been Muta's.
"I think so…but where…." Carefully she sat up and took everything in. The grass was much shorter compared to the Cat Kingdom. Off in the northern distance were a snow capped mountains and a forest to the left and a valley the rest of the way around of what she could see. Right now she seemed to be in its valley and within the valley to the west was a grand castle. Not as tall as the Cat Kingdom but she also assumed that was because cats had a thing for heights. It was more wide then taller she admitted in her mind.
"You're in the Dog Kingdom." The outlaw dog talked again.
Haru inched her head slowly to take the dog in. He looked like a street mutt which was most likely true on so many levels. Now she was down to dog size or maybe it was just universal size when you travel to an animal's kingdom. Either way he was a lot bigger then she was now and about the same size as Muta but leaner and well built in dog sense. His fur was black with a few white patches on his under belly and tail and also held a wiry texture.
"I kinda figured." Haru admitted lamely.
She could have almost sworn that dog rose an eyebrow at that statement. So she explained even if he was an utter stranger.
"A while ago… I was kidnapped by the cat kingdom and almost made into a cat." Now Haru was sure she saw a look of disgust on him. Maybe it was a cat and dog thing after all in her world dogs and cats hate each other most of the time. "So I am not all too surprised by this now I bet I am going to be turned into a dog by sun up my world's time."
"You're joking right?" He asked her.
"Nope, I happened- What! Why are you giving me that look? By the way what is your name?" Haru thought it might be better to change the subject.
"Jet." He answered stiffly.
"Well Jet my name is Haru and I suppose you have any idea how to get back to the human world or to the Cat Burro?" The question was lost in the wind as she spoke it, after all why would a dog want to go to the 'Cat' Burro?
AN: There will be more Jet Muta Baron and even Toto in the next chapter which I warn you will take a while for me to do. (I gotta make it nice and long look at how nice I am to you all?) Any words of advice (names mostly of any dogs who I might need to have show up) or plot twists please feel free to review and share if I do use –any- part of them I will give rightly credit for the idea booster! Thanks!
