Chapter 13: Vanitas the Cat

Vanitas was a small black cat. His fur was sleek and smooth and as dark as night. His eyes were a vibrant golden yellow, which glowed brightly in the night. And most of all, he was a mischievous little kitten. Sneaking around, causing trouble and freaking people out were some of his favorite things to do.

And it was Halloween, which was his favorite time of the year.

For him, a black cat was perfect for Halloween. People were always at their most superstitious at the time and he wanted to use that to his advantage. People either freaked out when seeing him or thought he was the most adorable little kitten. Though he preferred to make people freak out, he didn't mind the love and attention when he got it.

He scurried across the lawns of houses, looking where he wanted to start first. Though he knew he would have to wait a while for the children and other people to start showing up. They wouldn't start the trick or treating until the evening. But there were still plenty of other things he could do in the meantime.

There were plenty of day time events with people to bother such as parties or other things. And as he went down the street he could hear music in the distance. He picked up his pace and ran faster towards the sound.

Soon he came up to a house that was covered in Halloween decorations and loud music could be heard coming from the backyard as well as from inside. He snuck along the house and walked into a bush to hide in. He popped his head out though and got a look around.

There were tables with some food and drinks set up in one area, and a couple of games like bobbing for apples and other things set up around the yard. And there were a couple of people out in back talking to one another, dressed in various costumes, but other than that there wasn't anyone else.

"Maybe the rest are inside, guess I will have to find a way in there," Vanitas thought to himself. "But for now, I can at least go and greet these humans."

Vanitas jumped out from the bush and ran over to the table where the two were standing. He quickly made his way under it and then to the other side. They were busy locked in conversation so thankfully they didn't see him so he took the time to jump up onto the table. Even then they hadn't noticed him yet so he walked a bit closer and sat down.

He let out a meow and finally the people stopped talking and looked to him. Both of them blinked a few times, as if to check if they were really seeing him there.

"What's a little kitten doing here?"

"How did it even get on the table? You think it's a stray?"

Vanitas started to walk around the table, carefully maneuvering himself around the plates and bowls of food. He could see in the corner of his eye that the humans were still watching him, just like he wanted. Soon he came to a tray of vegetables near the edge of the table.

He wanted to start causing trouble already, but he was hungry too.

"Might as well get too birds with one rock… or how ever that human saying goes."

He began to nibble and eat up the little carrot slices that were on the tray. He could hear a couple of gasps from the two humans behind him. But he didn't look back, he just kept eating.

"Hey, that's our food!"

He could feel them getting closer, so taking one last carrot he turned around and jumped from the table. He could hear the humans shouted something and complaining, but he didn't take the chance to turn around. He ran back along the house and made it to the front where he hid inside of a different bush.

Vanitas laughed as he could still hear the confused and frustrated chatter from the humans. But that was only stealing food. It was baby stuff compared to what else he wanted to do. What he really wanted to do was find a way into the house.

And thankfully there was an open window up front.

He finished eating his last carrot slice before walking to the window. He jumped up and crawled inside, thankful that there was no screen to block his way. Though even if there was he would have just clawed at it until it would break.

Now that he was inside he saw there were more costumed humans walking around. THere was more music and more decorations everywhere. He started looking for what he wanted to mess with first, he wanted to find something that could cause a scene.

As he started to think a human spoke up. "Oh look! A little black kitten!"

"How did it get here? Kairi doesn't have a cat, does she?"

"No I don't think so. Maybe it smelled the food and found its way in here."

Vanitas looked up to see that two humans were surrounding him now. Both of them looking at with him adoring eyes. He hissed at them though, causing them to back up. Being found out so early was the last thing that he wanted. He hissed once more before darting under the chair that was nearby.

"Oh dear, I guess it must not be very friendly."

"We should probably tell Kairi though, if it is a stray we should call someone."

"Great! Now they have blown my cover! Gotta hurry with something at least…"

Vanitas waited until they were out of the way then bolted to the otherside of the room. Up on the dresser was a stereo system that was playing music. He jumped his way up there and started pawing at the buttons on the machine, causing the song to skip and then stop and then play again.

Now he could hear the murmurs of the people in the house coming from all around. He didn't wait long though before he jumped to a table next to the dresser that had some empty plastic cups on it. Right away he knocked each of them on the floor as he made his way down the table.

But when he got there he saw the two humans from before plus another, who he could only assume was Kairi. She looked at him surprising but then saw the mess of cups on the floor. "You're little troublemaker cat, aren't you? Well you don't have to worry, we are going to help you."

She held her hand out in a friendly manner, but Vanitas just glared at her. He wasn't in the mood for that kind of attention. He wanted attention from causing trouble! He jumped down from the table and ran down the hall, passing by many confused humans on the way.

He was in the kitchen now and started to look for what he could do. He saw more cups placed around on the counter and his first thought was to knock over as many of them as possible. If he couldn't cause big chaos, he would at least cause an annoying mess.

He jumped his way up to the counter and started to knock over the cups. He heard Kairi enter the room seconds later. "Hey, stop!"

But Vanitas didn't stop. He kept going and started to run a little. Though what he didn't expect was the next cup to still be full of something. Instead of it being knocked over with ease he ended up crashing into it and it did eventually tip over, with all of its contents spilling out onto and around Vanitas.

He hissed loudly before jumping back down to the floor. But now he was in the corner of the kitchen and Kairi was closing in on him from the front and her two friends on the sides.

"Crap! I need to get out of here now! Otherwise it's going to be-"

Before he could finish he was enveloped in a cloud of smoke. And when it cleared Kairi and her two friends stared with the most confusion they had ever felt.

Where there had once been a little black kitten was now a young boy dressed in black. He looked to be about their age and had extremely black, messy hair and golden eyes. But what was more surprising was that he had cat ears on his head and a tail swishing behind him.

"Um, did that cat just turn into a boy?" one of the girls asked.

"I guess so Xion, but I don't understand how," Kairi replied. "What do you think Namine?"

"I think maybe it was the water," Namine pondered.

Kairi then stepped a bit closer to Vanitas and knelt. "Is that right? The water did this to you?"

Vanitas hissed. "You don't have to talk to me like I'm a baby!"

All of the girls gasped.

"You can talk?!" Kairi asked.

Vanitas's ears and tail twitched. "Of course I can! I'm not dumb!"

"So he is more than just a little cat," Xion hummed. "I guess it is possibly though with it being Halloween."

"What are we going to do with him?" Namined asked.

Vanitas snared at them. "Nothing! I am getting out of here!"

Vanitas stood up to leave but Kairi grabbed him by the arm. "Oh no, you aren't going anywhere. You tried to make a mess at my party. You are going to stay and clean up what you did."

"Says who?" Vanitas said as he tried to pull away.

Kairi gripped him tightly and then twisted his arm behind his back. "Says me, cat boy."

Vanitas winced and his ears twitched again. "Okay okay! Fine you win! Let go of me already!"

"Only when you agree to clean up the mess you made."

"Fine! I'll clean it up!"

Kairi finally released him and he let out a sigh of relief. Kairi didn't move from her spot though, she crossed her arms and kept a close eye on Vanitas. "Go ahead and start, I'll be watching you."

Vanitas grumbled and started to pick up the cups around the kitchen. "Stupid water… stupid transformation…"

The three girls watched him carefully as he cleaned up, and soon they were snickering to one another.

"He is kind of cute."

"I bet his hair is really soft."

"I really wanna pet his cute little cat ears."

Vanitas glared at them. "You know I can hear you with these 'cute little cat ears' right?"

The girls started to giggle, making Vanitas groan. He just wanted to get out of this house already, but he was starting to have a feeling that it wouldn't be so easy. Now that these girls knew his secret… he had a feeling that they were going to continue to gawk over him and he would never get away from it.


Originally there wasn't suppose to be a cat boy plot twist lol. But I had no idea how to end this and I did want to have a story with a Vanitas cat boy. So I combined them!
