Omake One
In an alternate world, where animals are the main characters of the story, Nana is a brown mother cat and Iemitsu is her beloved husband though it is always a wonder to most as to why a cat will marry a lion—never mind the fact that it should be technically impossible—and how they receive a cub or kitten.
Tsunayoshi is a healthy kitten—well, taking out the fact that he seems to be unusually incapable of speaking in any way. He is normally shy and kind to everyone.
Ultimately, he's the "cutest damn thing in the world that everyone wants to kidnap him"—title by the people around him. Fortunately, it only works on few people who actually looks past his timid personality and his muteness.
Unfortunately, those people are the most dangerous, possessive, annoying, interesting, weirdest, unusual, protective, powerful—and any other adjectives similar—bunch who seems to have their own kind of obsession for the poor mute kitten.
Now, normally, it will be strange to see animals of all kinds—small and big—following one small kitten like a slave to his master, right? But the people—or animals—of Namimori have already come into their mind that it is normal if said kitten is named as Tsunayoshi.
The small animal shivers uncomfortably at the stares of newcomers of the village, who are not used to it and those animals that have already known of the situation will just shake their heads when Tsuna's harem—a name that just goes to their mind at sight—will cuddle the guy though there are some who settles with glaring at the newcomers instead.
If they also see the so-called harem carrying an electric fan or whipping up some wind in summer season or carrying a warm blanket or sharing heat via the body, then they will not even bat an eyebrow. They are used to the attics after the brown kitten had found his friends.
Of course, there are some cases where others envy the animal for those animals in the harem are drop dead handsome and beautiful. They try to do something to him—emphasis on the word "try"—but they can't even go near or look at Tsuna without getting maimed, growled out, and downright, attacked.
It is also a known knowledge that people can't kidnap the mute animal no matter what reason. Not only does he have people who will kill to get him back but he also have this strange ability to charm his captors. Just ask his other friend and they'll be guilty of such thing.
The funny part? Tsunayoshi doesn't even know the effect he has to other people.
"Juudaime, are you cold?" a silver leopard cat asked in concern, taking note that the smaller cat by his side was shivering none stop. "Do you want to warm you up?"
Tsuna didn't form any answer and it worried the others greatly. Usually, they will get a nod or a shake. A black dog lightly tapped his forehead to the other's forehead and exclaimed in worry, "He's burning up!"
Time seemed to stop at the statement and then, chaos occurred. Several animals just acted out of hand with their worry before it was broken by a whimper of the sick cat. Opening his caramel eyes, the cat stared at his friends dazedly. He smiled beautifully and purred at the closest animal in his right, a black liger—a hybrid of a male lion and a female tiger.
Said liger didn't even bat an eyebrow and merely took the purring cat in his arms despite the heated glares at his actions. "Trashes, I'm going ahead," he stated as a matter-of-fact and left before anyone could comment.
The abandoned animals could stare at the spot where he disappeared with a speed of light and cursed hybrid mentally—or physically in some cases.
"VOOOII! Shitting boss! Get back here with the damn brat!"
"BASTARD! GET YOUR PAWS OFF JUUDAIME!"
However, there were some animals, who just watched in amusement at the whole situation.
"Kufufu, you're not going to follow your dear student, Arcobaleno?" a snowy owl asked, his two-colored eyes watching the silver leopard cat and the coydog—mixed breed of a coyote and a dog.
The proud lion only chuckled at the question and replied with an inquiry of his own.
"Well, would you rather be stuck with Tsuna in his heat?"
Normally, Xanxus wouldn't regret any decisions that he had made but he was admitting that this was his worst decision ever but then again, he never expected the small cat to be in heat—the animal was even a male for Kami's sake!
Tsuna purred silently and moved closer to the other's stomach. He layed himself on top of the larger body and looked straight in those red orbs with his caramel eyes. He smiled—the smile that could take over the world if he wished for it—and the liger wondered if this was a punishment or a curse.
The cat's brown tail swing back and forth in glee while the brown cat ears made the larger animals want to touch them.
"Damn, it should be fucking illegal to be this cute," Xanxus muttered, feeling a blush was surfacing before he just gave up on thinking at all. He held the smaller cat in his arms and slept with him somewhere in a dark alley.
Again, if someone saw them, he or she would just deemed it as a normal thing and if it was someone in the harem, well, then all hell would break loose.
A/N: Short, huh? But it is a special chapter! Anyway, I got this idea when I was writing a PM for a reviewer... What do you guys think? And yeah... It's the borderline of shounen-ai and friendship! Kami, I think I should stop with the fanservice or this might turn into yaoi! XD
