"I'm here." Kai chimed emptily to the barren apartment, her purple eyes almost blank and lifeless. What did it feel like to come home to a family? She would wonder that on her off days- which she blamed being around people for. Dranzer was always around- and Black Dranzer would rumble in her head sometimes, even when they weren't close together- and Kai didn't realize they were chiming back to her- as if they were welcoming her home. They were always there- they couldn't 'welcome' the female anywhere. However recently, in a simpering pit of teenage angst that she brought home a kitten that was a shivering wreck.
Why Kai brought home a kitten when she was just as much of a shivering wreck? Kai didn't even know that, and she was starting to wonder if Takao's and Max's stupidity were wearing off on her. Forbid the thought, the blader murmured internally to herself, stepping into the threshold of her house. Not even two seconds later, two green eyes were staring back at her. If anyone was there with her- they would probably openly mock her for having such a weakness. Prince, as she had named him for his regal air even when looking like a total wreck- was her new house guest.
While…it might not be what other people want, she hated to deny that her black heart felt a bit warmer when she heard the meow back. 'Welcome home.' It seemed to say- and Kai felt a bit calmer- letting the stress of dealing with the Bladebreakers and the All Stars fall off her back- closing the door. As the furry feline scrambled onto the back of the couch- she dropped her bag by the door- and strode to the couch, picking up the bundle without hesitation. Prince only mewed in consent, nuzzling her shoulder and she smiled a little. No, it wasn't good as a person saying 'welcome home'- this was certainly a start- even if the cat did look mangy as fuck.
