Alrighty! This is Chapter Two as you might have guessed!
Thank you Maria for telling me about that small mistake I made in chapter 1, I haven't written a fanfiction with a deaf character before, so it's going to take some getting used to; Okay, here we go.
Aya walked up to her house, seeing Masuki in the window giving her the worst possible glare Aya had ever gotten from a house hold pet.
"Ah, Masuki. I'm sorry." She said, unlocking the door and walking inside. She slipped off her shoes and smiled. She walked over to the cat and reached out to pet her, but only to pull it back quickly as Masuki nipped at her outstretched hand. "Well… I guess that's only fair." Aya said, sighing and walking into the kitchen. She bent down and picked Masuki's food bowl up from off of the floor, and pulling a can of cat food out of the cupboard. She opened it and put it into the bowl, setting it back down on the floor.
"Here Masuki…" She stood back up and walked into her room. She grabbed some pajamas from out of her drawer and changed quickly, tossing her work clothes into the dirty clothes hamper.
She sighed and walked back out to the kitchen, and reached down to pet Masuki again. She smiled when Masuki looked up at her and opened her mouth, mewing. Even though she couldn't hear it, Aya was relieved that Masuki was being reasonable with her again. She opened up the freezer and looked in the fridge.
"Pizza it is…" She said, pulling a frozen pizza out of the freezer and putting it on a cookie sheet. She slipped it into the oven and set the timer. She picked up Masuki and carried her and the timer into the next room, sitting down and putting the timer on the table next to her, and Masuki in her lap while she read.
Masuki curled up on Aya's lap as she opened her book. A few minutes later, the timer went off and Aya continued reading. Masuki cracked an eye to look at the timer and then to Aya. She stood up and pawed at the timer and at Aya's hand, mewing quietly. Aya looked up from her book and smiled.
"Thanks Masuki." She pet the cat's head gently and got up, taking the timer with her. "I don't know what I'd do without you!" She grabbed a potholder and pulled the pizza out of the oven, setting it on the stove. She ate silently for a little while and when she finished she decided it would be best to go to bed.
"Come on Masuki. Bed time..." The little cat mewed and stood from her little nap and followed her. Aya crawled into bed and Masuki followed not long after, making herself comfortable on the pillow next to her.
-Dreaming-
"Where am I?" Aya looked around rapidly.
"You're where you are meant to be…" Aya's head whipped around furiously.
"Wait… I can… How is that possible?"
"Before the accident… Don't you remember?"
"Who are you?" Aya said, looking in every possible direction. "Where are you?"
"That doesn't matter… Aya… You're keeping a secret from yourself… And it can't be kept much longer…"
A sharp pain shot through Aya's back as she fell to her knees.
"What… are you… doing to me…?"
"I am not doing anything… You have done this to yourself…"
Aya winced as her eyes changed colors and she went through a complete transformation. Suddenly, a howl broke the silent night.
-End Dream-
Aya sat up quickly. She was in a cold sweat and breathing heavily. She looked around and got up quickly, stumbling over to her mirror. She sighed happily.
"Just a dream… It's nothing to worry about…" She climbed back into bed and stared at her blank white ceiling. "But why now? It's been years since I last though about… It's nothing… The pizza was probably just a little expired… that's all…" She rolled over and drifted back to sleep.
Alright… What do you think? Good? Bad? Review please!
