He was...Human. That much was sure.
He chanced another glance at his reflection. Short hair, a light dirty blond, covered his head, exactly the same colour as his fur had been. His eyes were more rounded now, but still were that same piercing green colour they had always been. He felt completely and totally alien in this body that he had somehow acquired in his dreams." Looking down, he inspected his clothing. Still the spotless white tails and trousers, crisp starched shirt with waist jacket. Bowtie was still perfectly in place, and he glanced back, seeing his cane and hat on the pavement where he had woken up.
Everything else seemed normal. Except the fact that he had no tail. He wasn't sure if he would be able to walk, as cat's were able to balance because of their whiskers and tails, both of which he was lacking.
Taking another step gingerly, he found that he could walk with surprising ease. That was a good first step, quite literally, but now he needed to move fast. The sun was rising over the city, and he needed to find someplace to stay.

Haru hadn't slept much at all since she had woken up from the nightmare. Her mother had come into the room upon hearing her daughter's scream and stayed for a little while, but Haru made her go back to bed. Her mother worked so hard all the time, just for her, and got precious little sleep, so it was only fair that Haru let her get her rest. Besides, there was nothing really wrong with her...
Nothing that her mother could fix, anyways.
A mother couldn't mend a broken heart that was threatening never to heal again. She couldn't fill the hole that had been left behind by a Baron. A mother's love was strong, but it couldn't replace an impossible love.

So she spent long countless hours staring at the ceiling, thinking of him, the Lord among Cats. The last thing she'd seen of him was his horrified look and outstretched hand as she had fallen into darkness. The dream couldn't had meant anything good, so Haru instantly became worried. Was Baron hurt? Maybe something horrible had happened to him...

She shook her head adamantly. Baron would be fine. He was the only creature ever to beat the Cat King in a duel, and even then if he got in trouble, he had Muta and Toto to help him. He would be fine...Getting out of bed, she reached into her closet and put on a heavy sweater, heading down the stairs. She needed to get out of this house...

Baron staggered along the streets of Tokyo, feeling very disoriented, dizzy, and, well...Lost.
His first thought was to find his way back to the Cat Bureau, but he didn't even know where he was. For the first time since Haru had been kidnapped by the cats, Baron felt fear.
He was always telling people to "Just trust me!" when they were afraid, but he no longer trusted in his abilities. The great Baron Funbert von Zikkigan had finally given up on himself, and the world.

There was no more trust.
There was nothing left for him.

He suddenly stumbled sharply to the right. Ever since he had woken up in the human body, his balance had been effected greatly. He leaned against the wall, and pounded his fist against the brick. He felt angry, helpless, and...
Dizzy.
The entire street seemed to be twirling, swirling around...Nothing was stable.
Setting his teeth together, Baron hauled himself down the street again, staggering along...
"Trust yourself."
Ha.

Sweater wrapped tightly around her, Haru wandered around the streets aimlessly, not having a particular destination. Her mind, however, was still centered upon the nightmare and the cat that inhabited them, which frustrated her. The very reason why she was taking this walk in the first place was to clear her mind of all those thoughts...
A large crash in front of her, suddenly startled her out of her unwanted thoughts. Someone, or something, had knocked over the trash bins. From the way they were staggering, they seemed to be drunk. Haru started to back away slowly. She didn't want to deal with any drunks, especially if they were feeling frisky. She was just about to hide behind the wall when...
"Miss? Excuse me, Miss?"
She froze. He was calling to her, a drunk was calling to her. "Could you be so kind as to direct me to the District where...Confound it, what was it's name? I always forget...Juuji-gai? I...Need...To find...It..."
Her eyes widened. There weren't many drunks that had an aristocratic English accent. Those were rare, especially in Japan.
"Please, Miss...Help me..."
Her heart stopped when the drunk came into the glow of the streetlight. He was wearing immaculate white clothing.
"Please, Miss..."
She knew that clothing. How could she forget them, after being carried up a flight of stairs pressed tightly against his chest. She knew that voice...The British accent had haunted her dreams for a little over a month. She knew this man, but...
"Baron!"
He managed to lift his pounding head, and tried to focus on the young lady.
There was an angel in front of him. His saviour.
Suddenly, the angel descended into darkness, fading away into an abyss. He was being engulfed into the darkness...
The angel was fading.
"BARON!" She gasped as his eyes rolled back, his legs give away beneath him, and she watched him in horror as her hero went crashing into the ground.
Running towards her fallen hero, she knelt beside his prostate body, brushing away the stray hairs from his face. But it wasn't the face of a cat she was met with. There was a nose, a mouth...The absence of whiskers also startled her badly. This didn't look like the Baron she knew, but somehow, she knew it was him. She had to help him, and find out what happened. Even though it felt like he was a stranger, this was her Baron, and she had to help him.
Her feelings for him would never changed no matter whatever happened to him...
With a little grunt, she hoisted his arm over her shoulder, starting to drag him back to her house. It was her turn to be the hero.
His angel.
Author's Note
I hope you're enjoying this, guys! It's really fun to write, even though I only have a vague idea of where it's going. ;;
And some people have been doing fanart? The Cheedynamic in particular? If so, I would LOVE to see it.
Also note that I've been fiddling around with some stuff for this chapter. I'm not sure it will work, as I am absolutely helpless with this sort of thing, so I appologize if it doesn't work.
