The Pet Shop

Alyssa in Wonderland

Two: Stolen by a Stranger

Tohru looked at her new found companion, Mr. Cat. She found it awfully awkward staring at the cat and she didn't know why, but maybe because it was staring back at her with wide amber eyes. For as long as Tohru followed the cat-lover fan club, she knew for a fact that cats have green eyes. However, this one didn't. She moved her face closer to the cat's face. It tilted its head as they stared at each other. A few minutes passed and Tohru Honda, an avid cat-lover fan club member, just couldn't keep it inside anymore!

"Ah!" She exclaimed with a foolish expression of it's-so-cute on her face as she grabbed Mr. Cat by the body and hugged it to death.

"You're just too cute, Mr. Cat—!"

Poof!

"…Poof?" Tohru said as an orange cloud enveloped her.

"Mr. Cat? Please!" A new voice said with obvious annoyance.

Tohru's face would only be described as…two dots for eyes and no mouth as she saw a very much-chiseled naked man in front of her with his arms at his side. His orange hair shined healthily against the light of the room and his eyes stared at her in a way that the cat stares at her.

The boy handsomely smirked at his owner, "It's Kyo. Kyo Sohma."

…And that's when Tohru Honda, avid cat lover fan club member, fainted.

Yuki looked around the shop boredly. Back in the days, dating about hundreds of years ago, his shop was such a hit he didn't even have to go out to 'hunt'. People nowadays, though, are stuck in their homes playing with some virtual pet. He sighed. He was stuck in this pet shop and no luck in hunting for a woman's soul. This town MUST be jinxed! He never had problems with women at all! Except for yesterday…

"Maybe you need a miracle more than me, sir. That's why I apologized for keeping God's time focused on me for too long."

The silver haired magician's eyes slightly drooped, "I've been waiting thousands of years for a miracle, but God doesn't give miracles to the cursed." He whispered to himself.

"What was that, Yuki?"

Yuki looked down to see the Shigure, the dog, in front of him reading a newspaper. "Nothing," Yuki said gaining his composure, "It's just that I met this girl that pissed me off."

Shigure looked at him laughed, "For as long as we've been related, I don't remember you getting 'pissed' at a girl."

"This one did. She had damsel in distress written—no—embedded all over face!" Yuki exclaimed.

"Did she blow you off?"

"Pfft, what woman can blow me off? I blew her off." Yuki answered immediately.

It was just a white lie, but he wasn't sure if Shigure bought it or he himself bought it.

Tohru felt a soft touch caress her cheek in an almost loving way. She slowly opened her eyes, a little unaware of her surroundings. For sure she was on her bed and the last thing she remembered was seeing a naked stranger in front of her. A naked stranger named…

"Mr. Cat? Please! It's Kyo! Kyo Sohma."

Tohru shook her head. Things like that were just not possible! That's right she must be making up ridiculous things in order to entertain herself. Tohru relaxed her shoulder and started to giggle. The giggling became laughter. Laughter turned into hysterical outbursts.

"Great, I'm stuck with a crazy owner."

Tohru gasped and sat up right, backing away from the stranger as far as possible. There before her was the stranger. Wearing nothing but a towel around his waist, the stranger walked towards her. Tohru backed up yet again only for the wall against her bed to stop her from moving any further.

The stranger looked at her in an odd way and grinned with confidence. He walked up to her bed and crawled towards her way. By this time, our heroine has backed up against the wall like a squashed tomato, blushing madly each time Kyo moved closer.

Finally reaching his target, Tohru closed her eyes shut and yelled, "Please don't come any closer!"

Kyo, shocked, looked at the brunette in front of him. Was he sent to the right place? This girl in front of him was his owner? Yuki must be getting too old for this job, Kyo thought to himself.

Kyo placed his hand on the girl's head and asked, "You really don't know why I'm here?"

The girl opened her eyes and looked up and replied, "I don't even know who you are."

"Again, my name is Kyo," Kyo answered. When he received a blank stare from the girl he sighed and pointed to himself, "I'm Mr. Cat."

"But, that's not possible!"

"Well you better believe it. I'm from the Pet Shop…have you ever heard of it?" He asked her.

"You don't mean that one." Tohru replied, visibly relaxing towards Kyo.

"Yup, the one that grants your wish to fall in love!" Kyo said rather proudly, "And here I am. The one you're to fall for."

Tohru looked at him incredulously and cleared her throat, "I'm not looking for love." She replied.

Yet again surprising our little cat, Kyo moved his face closer to Tohru. Resting his forehead on top of hers he announced, "Well, you don't have a fever or anything, but something's definitely wrong with your head."

"I was given to you by your grandpa who got me from Yuki. Yuki doesn't make any mistakes. He can't afford it." Kyo said.

"Yuki?" Tohru asked him.

"Anyway, if you're not looking for love then…" Kyo trailed off.

It's my job to make you fall for me now, Kyo thought touching his lips against the girl in front of him. Yuki nor I can't afford to let such a…

Moving away from the girl he looked at her surprised expression.

…Such a delicious soul to go.

"So…uh…what was your name again, owner girl?" Kyo asked laughing a little until he saw the signs of tears, which could only mean…

"My kiss!" The girl exclaimed shielding her lips with her hands.
