-Let there be midnight

ME NO OWN FAIRY TAIL!

Friends of a Kitten

"Well…" Loke said, trailing off.

"Meow!" Natsu shouted after the short pregnant pause. Natsu's cheek was puffed out in a pout as his ears twitched. Loke laughed, somehow knowing what the neko was saying.

"Ah, sorry Natsu. You really like being petted don't you?" he asked with a small smile. Natsu nodded, agreeing.

"Meow! Meow!" he said. Loke chuckled a little bit as he began petting the kitty again, Natsu purring in responds.

"I guess you're right. It is pleasant being petted." Loke replied, surprising everyone else in the room.

"Wait! You know what Natsu is saying?" Erza asked in her usual demanding voice. Loke nodded as he looked back up.

"Of course, all celeste spirits can understand neko's." he told them with a nonchalant shrug. Everyone leaned on the edge of their chair, egger to figure out what the pink haired kitten told Loke.

"What did he say?!" Gray shouted, impatient. Loke rolled his eyes a bit as he leaned back in his seat, Natsu jumping up beside him so he can continue petting him.

"Well for one, his memory has been erased about everything, but it will come back once he changes back. Two, he is saying how pleasant when people pet him. Though he did complain about how rough Erza pets him, how softly Lucy pets him to the point he doesn't really realize it, and how cold Gray's hand is when he strokes him." Loke replied.

"Meow meow! Meow meow meow!" Natsu shouted to Loke as he momentarily took his head away, only to lean it back into Loke's hand.

"Natsu, what that white strange liquid you had earlier, was called 'milk' and nothing bad is in it to make it taste bad. And the cold one is Gray, hard one Erza, soft one Lucy, and I'm Loke. The blue cat is Happy." Loke responded to the kitten. Natsu purred in reply as he layed down with his eyes closed.

"Can you tell us what happened to Natsu?" Happy asked Loke. Loke looked back up once Natsu fell asleep and stopped petting him.

"Sorry." he apologized. "Anyway, the last mission you took, which was a few days ago if I'm correct?" he got nods in responds. "Well, that magic he got hit with finally took its toll, turning him into the neko you see now. The only known cure for the spell is just to wait it out." he explained. He sighed heavily as he draped his arms behind the couch. Everyone just stared at him blankly.

"I can live with this." Lucy said, nodded.

"Yeah, me too." Gray and Erza agreed in unison.

"Aye!" Happy yelled, sitting up on the sleeping Natsu. Loke sweetdropped at their responds. He shook his head a little and setting it aside.

"Well, I'm heading… back to the celeste world…" Loke said hesitantly, disappearing in a cloud. After the celeste spirit left, the room was once again engulfed in silent as everyone stared at the curled up Natsu or snored softly in his sleep. Every once in a while, Natsu's ears and whiskers twitched making him seem even all the more cute.

"I wish he'll stay like this forever." Lucy said as she placed an elbow on her knee and rested her head in her hand in content. The rest nodded, thinking the same thing.

Some friends you have Natsu dear!
