I opened my eyes and realized I was human again. "Oi! What're you doing here?" I stood up and realized how small Demon really was.
"I want to withdraw the deal. I've decided I don't want your Stone. I just want to have friends." I said. I stood, stone-faced.
Demon started to laugh. "Foolish kid! I took your human soul! It's in here now, so you're a cat forever!" Then he paused. "I guess on the thirty-first of October you'll have human form." he grinned.
"That's cruel! And why?" I begged, falling to my knees. Even now, I could feel the tug of the real world. "You horrid little monster!" I screamed as I woke up. I looked around at the world. It'd been fun at first, but I didn't want this form anymore. I wanted friends. Friends I could now never have. I let out a small wail as it started to drizzle.
Depressed, I started to walk. I wasn't looking where I was going. I didn't care if I ran into a pack of savage wild dogs. I wanted death now. That meant Mommy, and Daddy, and Jakey, and Howie, and all of my friends and family. I didn't even notice the car bearing down on me until it screeched to a stop, showering me with filthy water. I looked dully at the humming vehicle, then curled up right in front of it.
"Stupid cat. Lying down in front of the car!" The driver climbed out and picked me up.
"Kill me." I mewed.
"Sorry cat, but my kids are allergic." The man said, putting me down on the side-walk.
"Kill me. Please. I want to die." I knew I sounded pathetic, but I didn't care about being strong anymore. I wanted to die. I wandered aimlessly into the allies, not caring what happened to me.
It was almost a week later when I came to my senses. Edward and Al were on a quest to get their bodies back. Maybe, just possibly…
But I was too weak. I'd deprived myself the privilege of food, and had been drinking filthy street-water. I was weak and almost dead. Oh well… I'd been wanting death for a while, and here it was on my door-step!
A large shadow suddenly blocked out the rain. I mewed weakly, opening my eyes a tiny crack. I was too weak to care what the stranger did to me now. As long as it was quick…
"I know you. You're Kitty." I opened my eyes a little more. Edward. He picked me up, wrapping me in his warm coat. "Where've you been? No one's even seen you, nor have you rejoined Scar." he said softly, holding me gently. I closed my eyes, totally exhausted. Let it be the last time I close them…
