Someone requested Kyo so I decided to do him. I do take requests. I'll eventually get to all the zodiacs though.
"You know just because the cat isn't respected in the Chinese zodiac doesn't mean it wasn't respected in other cultures!" Kyo yelled.
Yuki was sitting on the couch of Shigure's home listening to Kyo complain. He had just shot a slew of insults at the cat and now he was getting his revenge. It wasn't working. What did he have up his sleeve? Nothing.
"Oh yea? Which culture?" Yuki asked.
Kyo thought for a moment. He really wished he paid more attention in school. It would help him with his insults a bit. And probably make him sound a little smarter. He tried to think of some answer to Yuki's question but he couldn't. He was getting more and more frustrated. Stupid rat. Why did he always have to one up him?
"To answer you question the Egyptians respected cats." Shigure walked into the room with a fan in his hand. It seemed he was rarely seen without one. He sat down by Yuki and smiled at him. "Cats were both feared and respected in Egypt in ancient times, Yuki. Not that I would expect Kyo to know anything about his cat culture."
"I knew that! I always knew that!" Kyo lied. "Besides what can dogs do that are so special? And rats for that matter!"
Shigure smiled. "Well, I don't know about rats but in Egypt, Anubis, the god of death, had a dog's head. If I wanted to I could kill you." he giggled.
"And rats were responsible for the Black Plague. I could kill you too." Yuki said.
"You wish! In case you forgot cats have nine lives!" Kyo yelled. Finally, something the cat could use against them. It may not be true but at least he had something they didn't.
Yuki and Shigure looked at each other. "Oh, really?" Shigure said. "Let's test that theory!" The dog and the rat jumped up and grabbed Kyo by the arms. He started to look around frantically. What were they doing? He didn't want to die! He felt a familiar tingling in his body. He was flustered, angry, and upset. All those things combined was enough to make him change into a cat. He was sitting in Yuki's arms now. He looked around for Shigure. Where was the dog? He had to be here. Yuki held him tightly and waited for his partner in crime to return. When he did, he smiled.
"Ok, Kyo. Let's test the nine lives theory." Yuki said. Shigure pulled a knife behind his back and held it in the air. Kyo screeched like any cat would in that situation and jumped from Yuki's arms. He began to run around the house trying to find a way out.
"Come back, Kyo!"
"No!" He shouted. He saw the door. It was open! Just his luck! He ran out and grinned at his luck. He was free! Now, he needed a place to hide. Before he could think of somewhere Yuki lifted him by the scruff of his neck. "There are plenty of dangers outside too." he said. He walked to the sidewalk with Kyo thrashing in his arms. He was helpless in his cat form.
"Here it comes." Yuki said.
Kyo looked to the street and saw a car coming his way. He screeched as Yuki threw him. The car was right under him. Stupid Yuki. Kyo landed on top of the car with a light thud. "Cat's always land on their feet!" he called to Yuki. Kyo sat on the car until he felt it was safe to get off. He jumped off and began to wonder if Tohru was home yet. She would protect him. He walked down the street a little ways when he saw him. Ayame. Kyo still didn't trust him since his little ordeal. He was a damn snake! Kyo started to walk away but once again, Ayame saw him.
"Kyon-Kichi! Where are you going? Why are you a little cat?" he ran to him and picked him up.
"Put me down!" Kyo cried. He stared at Ayame. He was relieved to see his eyes weren't slits, but he remained wary. In Ayame's other hand was a riceball. Ayame opened his mouth and stuck the whole thing in. Then he swallowed it. Kyo stared at him shocked. "How..." he drifted off.
Ayame smiled and he showed huge fangs. "We snakes swallow everything we eat whole."
Kyo stared at him. Ayame watched with curiosity as he turned fully white. "Kyon-Kichi?" he said. Kyo didn't answer. "Uh oh. Did I scare him to death? Hatori will know." He ran the rest of the way to the Sohma Estate.
Kyo woke up in an unfamiliar bed. He tried to remember everything that happened. Oh yea. Yuki and Shigure tried to kill him. Then he was scared to death by Ayame. Wait...scared to death? He looked at the door as it opened. Hatori walked in with his lab coat on. He walked over to Kyo with his ever serious look. "You're awake." he said.
"I died..." Kyo muttered.
Hatori stopped for a second. "No...you passed out. You were frightened and exhausted. What have you been doing all day?" he asked.
Kyo shook his head. "No, no! Don't sugar coat it for me! I died." Kyo got up and grabbed some clothes that were laid out for him. "Which life was that? I'll just say it was my fifth. Yea, that's good. Bye, Hatori."
"Wait!" Hatori tried to stop him but the cat already exited the office. "But you just passed out...nothing more." Hatori said.
Was that funny? I don't know it didn't seem to funny. Let me know.
