Yay failure time, I'm bad at writing, used to be good but those days are gone, bear with me please
"I've never been this lost before, I'm not even sure I'm in town anymore, this place looks more like a children's play area." the girl's voice rang out as she wandered around the circular collection of buildings. "There's even a cat doll in this one"
Light flashes for a moment in the windows of the building she was looking at, blinding her for a moment. She hears footsteps, small ones, and then a voice.
"Welcome to the cat bureau." She jumps a little and looks around for the voice. "Down here." She looks down and finally notices the well dressed orange and white cat.
"You, spoke?" Immediately she passes out, having gotten lost and meeting a talking cat was quite a lot for one day.
Toto slowly materialized into his animated form and looked to the baron. "You scared the poor girl baron. Maybe you should rethink your way of introducing yourself?"
The Baron examined the young woman on the ground, she was clearly not from the area, probably not even Japan, she looked more American. Pale skin, white hair, and when he could see them sea green eyes. She looked to be about 17, and wore glasses.
"Did Muta bring her here?" The fat cat looked up from his paper and shook his head no. Walking over and standing next to Baron.
"She wandered in here Baron, must have one bad sense of direction to get lost and end up here."
"She has as much brains as you. And the same sense of direction." Toto snickered in the background starting the two off on one of their usual fights.
"At least i can find my way around without flying bird brains!"
The half-cat ignored them, waving his hands and making the woman shrink to a more manageable size, he lifts her up and takes her into the bureau setting her on one of the couches. he moves to get some tea started.

The girl woke hours later sitting up and holding her head, sore from hitting the ground before. she looked around noticed her new surroundings. "I must still be dreaming."
"I'm afraid not miss, you're very much awake." The girl looked over to see the same car from before, her eyes widened but she stays conscious this time.
"I, you're..." The baron held up a hand to quiet her bringing over a dish with a teacup on it.
"I am the Baron Humbert Von Gikkingen, you are in the cat bureau, a refuge for creations, and those seeking aid."
The girl stared for a moment before shaking her head and bringing herself back into reality. "I... I'm Ume, forgive me if I seem surprised, uh... cats don't talk where I'm from." The baron smiles, handing her the tea, she accepts and looks into it. "How... how are you so tall?"
"I'm afraid i had to shrink you, so I could bring you inside to rest." He looked up to find Ume drinking the tea rather hastily, smiling at it. "I would like for you to spend the night here, it is getting late and I have a feeling you are the kind to easily get lost. Any of the houses are at your disposal, if you require anything please let me or Toto know."
She stands and wavers a little before nodding and walking out of the double doors, Toto moves atop his perch, causing Ume to panic and run to the house next to the bureau building to hide. To her surprise the house was full of furniture, and portraits of Half-cats similar to baron. she wanders through the rooms and examines the portraits smiling at some of them. eventually she finds herself in the master bedroom, well furnished, nothing drew her attention more than a locked trunk in front of the bed though.
She approached it and examined the lock, it was old and rusted, normally she wasn't very nosy but she ended up pulling on the lock and breaking it. the trunk swung open and she reached inside pricking her finger on something sharp within. she pulls back and puts her finger in her mouth. 'Ow what's in here' she reaches into it and pulls out a small pin, attached to letter to the Baron, she sets it down and closes the trunk. 'What am I doing?! he was kind enough to let me stay and I'm being quite nosy... Guess i got what i deserved, finger stings now.' her mind runs blank as she walks to the bed falling onto it. 'I'm so tired all of a sudden'
Probably going to be a lot of short chapters, or maybe this is long, i don't know, honestly I am being quite selfish, writing a story that I really want to read, also realizing this is going a little quick... I might try to make them a little longer and less, speeding through.
