Me: Seems sometime since we've met, right Firion?
Firion: I want to return to normal! TT_TT *Still have his tail and ears*
Me: GET USED TO IT!
A/N: Sorry I didn't update a chapter in the past few days or weeks...I can't remember, old age is getting to me (and I'm only 21 years old! I'm apparently Chuggaaconroy (An Let's Player in Youtube)). Thank you for your patience. The only reason is this. I have a watcher in DeviantART who wants me to update one of my stories there and was begging me to continue the story. If you all want to know what the story is it's called 'Destined Love' which is a Kid Icarus/Smash Bros cross fanfic, and the pairing is Pitcest (Dark PitxPit). I hope you all understand and will be doing that and this at the same time. Again, hope you all understand.

Firion woke up to the sound of screaming children and adults. He started to look for the child he gave the coin to see it covered in blood. He then realized who is near him. The mafia Prishe and the child warned him about. Did they know he's here? Did they know he's not around the area? Soon he saw the father covered in blood and the child killed in his arms.
"Sir, what happened?!" Firion asked to see the heaven symbol in blood from his dream. "That symbol..."
"You saw this symbol?! Where?!"
"In my dream..."
"Dream?! Can you-"
Before long, the roof started to fall above them. The wind and the flame started from the oven. Firion felt his right ear twitched to hear voices. They were muffled, but there are Nekos near by. He ran to the door, which was locked from the other side. He then ran to the back to see it locked. What is the others trying to do? Bury them under the rumble of the building? Firion felt one of the burning wood fall on top of him and couldn't move. He looked up to see the ashes of the building starting to fill his lungs. As soon he saw the Neko in front of him, Firion passed out due to lack of air.
"Hey Bartz!" The blonde Neko spoke up. "Come here!"
Bartz came out from the remains of the building. His short brown hair was more of a sitting ground for the ashes. He wiped it off with his right hand, which is covered up with a bandage, and most of his blue shirt is burned off. The vest was a bit burned, but not much. The jeans has holes with his brown tail in prefect condition. Behind his back is a flamethrower with a bit of oil hanging off the belt. The combat boots were covered in ashes and the fabric around the belt is now burned.
"Tidus, what did you find?" Bartz's brown ears were down due to the ashes in the air. "Something not burned?"
"No...a person who is very much alive." Tidus looked to see Firion passed out. "Should we take him back to base?"
"N-O! Light will not only order Kain to beat you up, but also allow me to BQQ you with my prized flamethrower, Brave! Are you stupid this morning!?"
"But what if he becomes one of the best? The gang needs a new member."
"I still say it's a bad idea."
Bartz picked up Firion's limbed body and flopped the other Neko to his right shoulder. Tidus laughed and walked along the ash road to see everyone looking at the two. The two ignored the cries of "murder" and "pyromaniac" from the people. Soon it ticked Bartz off and unleashed his fires to the near by wood. Everyone runs away to let the three Nekos walk away. Squall was waiting outside the village to see his friends walking up to him.
"What or who is that on your shoulder, Bartz?"
"Some random guy Tidus wants to bring into the family." Bartz answered to Squall. "Sees a great member in him. I don't see it."
"Come on, Bartz!" Tidus laughed. "I hope Light isn't in a bad mood...or else...say bye bye to my beautiful tail...and hair."
"Oh, ho ho...don't make me laugh!" A voice echoed.
The three looked to see Kain spying on them. His long blonde hair tied up in a ponytail with his ears down due to hiding in the shadows. His piercing eyes got into Tidus's soul as his purple top is held by a leather armor under the vest. His jeans was covered up by a scaled fabric around his waist. Scaled boots similar to his comrades. To many of the Nekos in the village and the mafia, he was once a member of another gang but the leader of the mafia best him in a duel and entered the mafia from his other gang. The blonde tail swished around to find someone around.
"Found anyone, Kain?" Bartz asked with his flamethrower ready.
"No one...good. Let's take this guy to base. We'll see if Light could see this new member in him."
Firion woke up in a matter of hours to see himself in an open room. Most of his clothes were burned off, leaving him wearing only his collar and pants. He sigh and cried. He now wonders where he is. First is was in the middle of nowhere. Now in some random place, he now wants to go home. Soon he saw a Neko he saw back at the burning building he was trapped in, and with his reaction, stepped back.
"It's ok." The other spoke calmly. "We don't bite."
"Who are you?" Firion asked with claws ready.
"The name's Tidus. I found you passed out from the ashes in the air. But don't worry, you'll meet with the boss very soon."
"Tidus!" A voice other echoed from the other room. "Get in here!"
Firion saw Tidus running into the room next to his and started to wonder. What if the boss likes him and wants him to stay? Soon he was ordered to enter the room. With a nervous persona, he walked inside to see a large table filled with gold on it. The leader looked up and grinned to see this newcomer Tidus told him about.
"Welcome to the Harmonious Blood headquarters. We rule the village's law and order. Some say we're criminals, but we believe we're doing the right thing. Now then...name and where the hell your from."
"My name is...Firion, and I'm from Dissidia."
The leader spat out his drink. The fortune teller warned him about someone who's name begins with an F and steal his heart. And what's interesting is he's from the richest part of the land. He laughed and pretended to not know about the teller's little prediction.
"Firion...such a lovely ring to it, and from Dissidia you say?"
"Yes...it's the where the aristocrats lives. My male master dumped me here."
"Oh...sounds like your family doesn't need you anymore. Maybe Tidus do see a potential in you. But before I agree with his terms, let me take a good look of your eyes."
"Excuse me?"
"Walk to the edge of the table so I can get a clear view of your eyes. I get you a lot from the eyes."
Firion walked closer to see this complete stranger looking deeply into his hazel eyes. But he got a glimpse of the leader's clear blue eyes. Markings similar to wild beasts were shown under his hat. He walked away so he can see the leader laughing.
"Got a sight of my face a bit, love?" The leader removed his hat so Firion can see his face completely. "Surprised I look so different from the other Nekos you've met?"
"Very different...what are your...unique markings suppose to show."
"Nothing. I was born with them." The leader stood up to walk closer and wrapped his tail around the other's forearm. "And my tail was born this way as well..."
"Strange...a birth defect?"
"Oh no...my mother carried me up to full term. It's just my genetics are different. But let's just say...does anyone tell you that your eyes are very similar to an imperial topaz?"
Firion back up. "What are you talking about? Why are you comparing my eyes to a gem?"
"First sign of the tramp Light." Tidus whispered into Kain's ears. "Compare his victim's eyes to gems."
"And why the imperial topaz?" Light laugh at the aristocrat's statement.
"It bestows wealth if combined with our so called "tiger eye" Neko, Squall. Also helps with charisma. But it's also attracts love to everyone towards you. Now tell me, does anyone have fallen in love with you, kitten?"
"No, and why are you calling me kitten now? My name is **_Firion_**!"
"Bah, whatever little kitten. Look, Tidus brought you hear because he sees a new member in you. And what I see, well...with a bit of training I can see it. Now...I have to ask you a question."
"What question is that?" Firion saw Kain giving him the mafia's uniform with nothing behind it like the others.
"If you want to be with us, then you'll need to draw the heaven symbol on your vest. And...I suppose you need to get more dirtied up of your manners and poster."
"Let me guess...the symbol needs to drawn in..."
Kain, with a small drawing pan, can near Firion to cut open his arm. Droplets of the red liquid coming out and nearly made the aristocrat puke due to the sight. Light licked his lips. The sight of blood amuse him so much, expectedly the whole signing your life away to work for him in their own blood. As soon the pan was full of blood, Firion felt as if he was going to faint due to the fact he lost nearly a pint of blood.
"Your blood...it taste so sweet like the cream and meats you have while in Dissidia..."
Firion felt his face turned green. "You've taste my blood!? Hate to amide it Light, but you sir are sick and twisted! Why should I join this so called 'family' of yours?!"
"Kitten...kitten...kitten." Light tone went seductive, which caused the raging beast inside the other to be calmed. "You need to think about it. Your male master dumped you. That means you're not needed in the family anymore. So you've come here and meet one of our clients to spend the night. Then woke up in a burning building just so you can meet me and my family. It...seems that we were destined to meet sooner or later. Now...do you have another name that you go by."
"Someone called me Fironiel...but I don't mind it."
"Ok, Fironiel." Firion blushed to hear that again, but out of this so called perverted Neko...who's fingers is dipped in his own blood. "I'm going to give you a small trial."
"A trial?!" Kain objects the idea. "But you've bested me in a duel, and I joined in without any questions. Why giving this one, who Tidus found off the streets, a trial!?"
"Silence Kain! Now Fironiel, I'm going to give you a six month trial. If you seem to like my family, then you are allow to stay and serve under my word. But if you can't change, then I'm kicking you back to the streets. Now...to start it, then you have to draw the family's symbol in your blood. If you be so kind."
Firion, with his tail swishing around angrily, dipped on of his fingers in his blood to draw the symbol behind his vest. Tidus was slightly celebrating while Kain was thinking that Light must've gone nuts. Once finished, the leader threw a light blue tank top to be asked to remove his upper clothing. The somewhat muscular chest the aristocrat has pleases Light since it was telling him he's still the alpha Neko around. With the top and vest on, Firion looked to see his now called boss giving him a headband similar to what monks wears. He wrapped it around his head so the forehead was covered up and tied it up so the extra fabric was hanging off with his ponytail. Light laughed and ruffed Firion's hair until it was in a messy mess like the others. But soon Firion felt a sudden change in him. But he realize it was the other's mind taking over his body.
