Chp. 3- Dogs and Cats Friends?
"Are you alright?" She forced herself to turn her head to the right and she looked up to a boy that looked her age put a head taller. His brown hair was cut in half by a horizontal, orange line. His face was a soft tan but his hazel eye stood out the most. She always had a thing for hazel eyes.
He looks. . . No, IS so fine!
"Can you stand up?" A expression of worry appear on his face.
Her face erupts a hot red and rises in a fast speed that she almost fell backwards. "I am sorry about that. I get sleepy easily. That's what a vampire's hypnosis does to you. Ha, ha, ha!"
"I know, but why were you messing with her anyway?"
"I have friends that are vampires, so they don't scare me." Her tail and ears stood in a confident pose.
"No, I mean what they want they meant from you?" A little edge that he was not getting a straight answer.
"I must ask", Rikana interrupts the boy, "Are you the one to hit that girl so hard?" Kathira stopped acting all 'Miss. Hero' to see if he would answer the million dollar question.
"Yup, I don't like bullies so I wanted to help you. You must tell me your name for saving you."
"My name is Rikana," She points to Kathira, "And, this is Kathira. We are freshmen here. Her brother is really popular with the girls so they were uh. . . Yeah, what were they doing?" She turns to Kathira.
"They wanted for me to give them, like, 'personal' info about my big bro but you helped me out there."
"It was fun to help for the greater good. I hope to see my fellow fishies later." He exclaimed on 'fishy'. He walks away but Kathira thought she saw something orangey-red on his behind but she forgets it.
The first few classes went well. She only had first class with Rikana and didn't see the others till lunch after third period.
"Hello, my friend!" Haruki comes from the right to hug Kathira but jumps straight up and does a triple flip. He ends up hugs another poor girl about a year older, which was bad for him.
"Stupid, Pervert freshmen!" And, SLAP! A large red mark was left from the harsh attack, which he deserved. Rikana comes out with a portable ice packet which she always had for this reason.
"Haruki, what have we been telling you?" She hands him the packet. Kathira grabs her lunch and sits with them.
"You know I like to hug girls and you are the closest girls around." He places the ice on the red hand print.
"Which is better than Miroku." Kathira drinks her chocolate milk after adding that. She has seen Miroku being slapped about twenty times regularly. Sango could be very painful.
"Well, my dad should . . .", Rikana stuffs his mouth with a loaf of garlic bread.
"Thank you, Rikana! I SO owe you." Kathira applauds for the great show of shutting another up, especially him.
"Another garlic bread would be great." She points to the suffocating Haruki.
"Fine by me." Kathira walks to the pasta lane and grabs a bread at the same time as another hand, except this one was larger than hers.
"I am sorry. You wanted this one?" She looks up to see a tall dude with short, black hair and emerald green eyes. His pointy ears hid behind his hair. He had the scent of a wet dog but with a piney scent with it. She remember what her daddy sad about that scent before.
" ' Kathira you must always get way from the area if you smell one!" Dad is in his 'speech' pose, again. I wonder what he wants to tell me now. Oh yeah, I have to listen if I want to know.
To late. Inu-yasha saw me in my 'I am in a dream and can't hear you now' face and was ready to hit me in the head for my 'absent-mind ness'.
' Sit.' Kagome's voice came from the doorway. Daddy, yet again, was pushed into the floor.
'Inu-yasha, why are hitting your daughter for no reason?" She had her fists on her hips.
'YOUR daughter was not listening to my advice. She need to learn to listen to me!' He yells thru the floor.
'Dad, I do, but I was thinking of high school that time, and know that I remember it', I give an angry look at daddy, 'why is it that you hit me and not Misoka and Mahiru.'
Inu-yasha finally stands from the spell, 'Misoka has behaved during my lessons, but I had to hit him a few time. And, Mahiru is to young for my hits and is also human unlike you. She is to good to hit also.'
'That is what you think.' I murmur to low for him to hear.
'You should be nicer to her, Inu-yasha.' Thank mom to have my back.
'Never mind that shi- uh, stuff, just know that you should know to avoid the smell of a wolf youkai. They are trouble and I don't want you to be near them.'
'You still hate Koga for liking me when we were young? You sure can be an idiot so times.'
'Who is calling the idiot, wrench?'
'I thought you were going to watch your language around the children.' She points to Kathira and he gets a blushed face for what he done.
'Mom, you had another dude like you? Oh, dad had a run with for his money!'
'No, just a running with a million colorful words coming 5 trillion a second.' They both had a giggle fit.
' He was the reason we moved and he is still in Japan too! HA, HA, HA!" He stopped and sat down in a cross position, 'Anyway, I don't want you near them. If I smell something like a wet stinking dog with a stupid piney scent on you the first day of school, then you will have a bump that will the whole entire iceberg to reduce the swelling!'"
Oh great, now dad will have a fit when I will get home. She thought.
"Thanks for the offer but you could have it if you really want it." She pushes the bread to the wolf boy.
"What I really want", He grabs her hands in his, " is to know your name."
She sighs and pulls her hands out of his, "My name is Kathira and if you don't want it then I will take it." She grabs the bread and races to pay for it. He fallows her anyway.
"My name is Daiki and anything you want, Kathira." He grinned the whole way.
"Do you want to do anything I want?" She asks in the most innocent voice she could and added the puppy eyes just for kicks.
"Yes, anything for you." He stood there waiting for something he wished was good for him.
In the coldest voice possible, "Leave me alone." She was hoping for his heart to break and leave in pain like the others she dumped in the past but he just grinned.
"Of course, my dear", he rises her hand and kisses the back of her hand, "I will see you tomorrow." He walks away with his black tail waging back and forth.
Kathira was all but happy with his reaction. He is just trying to get to me. I must stay strong. Man, I am sounding like those hero boys in anime shows.
She walks back to her friends and asked what had took her so long. She told the whole story and they were astonished.
"Kathira, I can't believe you got boys chasing you already. I know some of them asked you in middle school and you look more beautiful now that back. . ."
SLAM!
Haruki got hit by a empty chocolate milk carted that use to be Kathira's. Ichigo comes and sits with her food and claps for the second Haruki hit in the day.
"What did he do now." Ichigo asked after her applause. Kathira told about everything and she also stared in surprise as well.
"I have to agree to the pervert over there about that", she exclaimed, " I think that you have become more prettier than in middle school."
They were both right. Kathira had to beat up a few 'unrespectable' guys during the summer and now a guy was hitting on her in high school and he had to be a wolf.
"Oh yeah that reminds me, I need to wash the smell of the wolf off my skin or dad will have a fit. Be right back." She walks to restroom. She rubs the soap hard on her skin but still a slight smell of wolf stayed on her skin but you had to get really close and had to sniff really deeply to smell it.
I will take a shower before dad comes home. It might leave by then and I will be on the clear. She walks out of the girls restroom and smell someone familiar.
Is it that boy that helped me earlier? She also caught the scent of a bunch of wolves. Oh great, now I have to wash again of I come in. I guess I should see what's up.
She also caught the scent of a bunch of wolves.She walks to the many smells then hears a small voice say a word that Kagome would call 'colorful' and many painful grunts. She races to the spot where she finds the boy standing but still in pain with four other guys, that were wolves too, ready to attack him again.
"You will have lesson of respect for the Fang Five, you striped weirdo!" A brown youkai wolf yelled then kicks the boy to the floor.
"Yeah, no one stands up to us! Ha, Ha, Ha!" Another one bellowed.
I will teach them a thing or two. She pulls up her short sleeves and readies herself for the right time to jump in and save the day.
"You are just pieces of wolf s!" He did have a colorful vocabulary like Inu-yasha had. She thought the nice guy act was to good to be true.
"You will regret saying that!" Another one got ready to punch him but something tackled him to the floor.
"I thought wolves had a great sense of smell but I guess the book was wrong." Kathira walked to the boy, "This is for saving me but I did get your name, that was rude of you."
He wobbly stands up, "You could call me Nick for now. I didn't know dogs, not to mention FEMALE dogs could fight like that."
"WHAT DO YOU MEAN BY THAT!" Her ears and tail shot up in a angry position.
"You will pay for hurting him you b!" The brown one runs toward Kathira but she does the same triple flip like with Haruki but lands on the wolf's head. He faints as she flips backwards to Nick's side.
"You need to watch your language around me and DON'T CALL ME THAT!"
"I see the little puppy has some moves." Another sandy brown wolf assumed.
"I see she will need to be tamed. I would love to take care of that." A blonde wolf walks up to Kathira with a evil shine in his black eyes. She get a feeling this is getting this is going a little to far.
"No, I WANT TO DO IT!" Yelled another brown wolf but with pink eyes.
The blonde wolf was already in close range for the attack, " I am doing it and that's IT!"
Kathira walks back until she hits the wall and shuts her eyes as it was the end. The blonde wolf gets read to pounce.
"Blaze Onyx Piercing!" A hand with black sharp nails scratches the blonde wolf on his face making a small stream if red blood flow down his face. She finds Nick standing in front of her with the same blood of the wolf's on his now black nails. Nick all different now, not just his nails. The orange line was replaced with a pair of orange striped cat ears and a reddish-orange, blacked striped tail grew from behind with it was swaying back and forth. His eyes blazed a red-orange color with a few black stripes in it.
"You better not to that to Kathira." Kathira stood there is shock of what was happening.
"What will you do about it?" Asked the blonde wolf wiping the blood from his face.
"You see more than just tiny cuts on your pretty-boy face." He smirks.
Why does he remind me of daddy? Her ears stood in bewilderment.
"You will regret that!" He charges at Nick but he just stands there.
"You asked for it." He hold out his black, cat nails, "Blaze Onyx Piercing!"
A large, deep cut appears on his chest and blood slowly flows from it.
"What? How could you do that?" He faints to the floor and his wolf buddies picked him and their other friend and ran away.
"You will pay for that!" The pink eyed wolf yelled.
"I am glad that is over." He turns to Kathira, "I was hoping not to show you this but here is the real me." He raises his arms and a emotion of disappointment shown in his fire eyes.
"I am okay with the real you." She walks up to him.
"You do? Most people would tease or be weird out of my true appearance. There is not a lot of Siberian Tiger hanyous in the U.S. So, why are you okay with me being like this?"
"Because", she grabs his cat ears and starts too rub them, "I love your cat ears! They are so CUTE!"
He shakes her off his ears, "You have ears too."
"I know but not like cat ears." She smiles at him, "And, having a tail too is also why. I am not the only one with both any more!"
"You are a weird hanyou dog-girl, you know that." He shakes his head and walks to the cafeteria.
"How did you know I was a hanyou?" She didn't know that it was that obvious.
"I could smell it the moment I caught you." He had sad it so softly that she exploded a lava red, again.
"Huff, I knew that will get you." He smirks.
"THAT IS SO MEAN!" She returns to her normal color.
"It was fun to watch." He shook his whole body. His ears and tail disappeared and eyes and nails turned back to what they use to be.
"WOW, you could control your appearance? I wish I could do that." Her head hangs down with her ears.
"You look cute with those ears and tail though." Her face explodes, again. " I got you again! HA, HA, HA!"
"Not fair, I fall for anything." She sees the cafeteria, "Hey, are you sitting with your friends today?"
"I don't have friends", he said coldly.
"Well, then you will sit with us then." She grabs his arm and drags him to their table.
"Hey everyone! I want you to meet Nick. He is the one who saved me from Misoka's fans."
"Hey there, you have this lunch?" Rikana asked.
"Yup." Was all he said in Kathira's grasp. He was trying are to leave as fast as he could but gave up.
"Nick this Ichigo. She is my friend from middle school. She is a great anime drawer!"
"No, I am not! Neko-Chan please stop telling everyone I am!" Nick then looks confuse to Kathira.
"Neko-Chan?"
"Yes, you are Ichigo, right Haruki, Rikana?" She turns to her other friends and didn't hear Nick's Question.
"Yes, you are Ichigo", agreed Rikana.
"You are the best in the world and needs a hug of con-" Haruki got another hit from Rikana.
"Ouch." Nick exclaimed.
"Yeah, that is Haruki. He is a big pervert and hugs any girl he could get his hands on which is usually us. And, Rikana is his cousin so she could hit him if he acts 'bad'."
" What is the thing with Ichigo calling you 'Neko-Chan'?" He could not get that out of his mind.
"Oh, of course you would notice that but my friends call new Neko-Chan because the first three letters of my name make kat so they call me that but my big bro doesn't like it."
"Oh I see." He looks some want pleased from the nickname.
"Oh yeah, Nick is a ca-oomph!" Nick quickly covered her mouth.
He whispered in her doggy ear, "Please don't go and tell everyone in the school about this. We could tell them this later, okay?" She nodded and he released her.
"What was it Neko-Chan?" Ichigo asked.
"It was nothing."
"Now everyone must go to their four period classes." The same voice from this morning called out.
"What classes do you all have next?"
They all showed their schedules and they all had the next class, Geography, next.
"Yeah we all have the next class together!" Kathira hugs Ichigo while she hugs Rikana and Rikana grabs Haruki by the collar and Kathira grabs Nick by the wrist as he tries to run away.
What have I got myself into? He wondered
The rest of the day was alright with Kathira. She had fun with everyone in Geography but Nick was still kind of shy at first but Kathira had raises his spirit and he was talking more normally by the end of class. She had another class with Ichigo in art and they were happy about that. She had Geometry and Spanish with Nick and was surprised how good he was in Spanish. She also had Daiki in geometry and it looked like Nick was ticked off of how he was treating her.
" As I walked into the class with Nick, I smelled a familiar smell but didn't like it very much.
'Kathira!', Daiki runs and grabs her hands, AGAIN, 'I am so happy that you have this class with me.' I could hear Nick do a little hiss from the bottom of his neck.
'Daiki, didn't I say to leave me ALONE?' I try to pull my hand away he still hold on tight.
'That was in Lunch and this is geometry.' I could now hear a low and long hiss from Nick now.
'Well , I said to leave me alone NOW and FOR THE REST OF THE DAY. We have to get to our seats, right Nick?" Daiki let go of my hands and glares at Nick and he does the same.
I just sigh and grab Nick, 'Come on now. I really don't want you to be in trouble just cause of the guys who I have problems with.'
I didn't catch the face of triumphant Nick did to Daiki and he only steamed off to his chair which was opposite of Nick and Kathira's seats."
Kathira had it pretty normal the rest of her classes.
B-bring, B-bring
The bell for the end of school rang and all of the kids ran out of there. Kathira had to go to her locker to drop of her books. She was there then she sees Nick talking to someone that looked like an older version of him but with a few differences and a dark aura surrounded him. She tuned her ears to the conversation.
"You are really pretending to be a human to avoid the teasing you got as a kid? That is just so stupid to pull, little brother!" The older brother told but in a very cold and emotionless voice. He was almost like uncle Sesshy back when dad and mom meet but now he had more nicer aura around him because of Kathira and her siblings and also Rin.
"Yeah so what of it! I already made some friends because of it!" Nick defends himself.
"What are they? Are they humans or mice?" His violent, green-yellow eyes shown laughter.
"One of them is a hanyou like me! And, that is better than any other of your friends, Binya!"
"Like you do have a hanyou friend." He turns his head so his neck-long, night-black hair with black stripes almost invisible because they both were black.
Just like on cue, Kathira walks up to the bickering brothers, "Hey Nick, are you riding the bus?"
Oh no, why now Kathira? Nick thought.
"So, this your hanyou friend. She is a dog hanyou then." He starts to look at her which made her very uncomfortable.
"Binya, leave her alone!" He stands in front of her.
"Come on Kathira, lets go." He guides her away from his loser of a big brother.
"I hope to see you again, Kathira." Binya says in a cold voice which made Kathira shudder.
When they where a safe distance from Binya, he turned her that they were face to face.
"Why did you do that for? He could of done something bad to you! You should of stayed where you were!"
"I WAS trying to help you and how did you know I was there?"
"I can smell you remember. Just cause I am a cat doesn't mean I can't smell stuff like you!"
"He, he. I forgot." They made it to their buses, "I am sorry about that. I need to stay out of your business."
"It's okay as long if you don't do it again." He rose an eyebrow.
"Of course not." He smiled and walked to his bus.
He didn't know she had her fingers crossed. Yeah right.
"See you tomorrow!" He yelled from his bus.
"See ya!" She runs to her bus and gets ready for the pain at home.
WN: Hey, hope y'all like it. This is the longest in the whole entire story! Cool! Y'all have meet a lot of new characters! I will give Nick his own word he says all the time like Inu-yasha with 'Feh' and 'Keh'. Just to tell that Daiki and Koga are NOT RELATED! Koga is off in Japan and might not make appearance, I think. So will Kathira be flatten into a pancake? Or will she be saved by her big bro? I would pick the first one but I am saying nothing! Please Review!
