Hello everyone! SummerTheFastfin is me and SummerTheFastfin is now posting the first bit of this story! This is just the first chapter, told from Binx, Keena, and Mikoto's perspectives. Aww, poor Binx, I feel really really sad now. Anyways, now with all that out of the way, I hope you enjoy reading this first chapter. Now, without further ado, let's take flight.
I awoke feeling sore and disorientated, I stood to my paws slowly, and shook out my fur as I looked around with nervous and fearful eyes. "Where am I? Well... I'm still a cat so I know that I'm not dead. I really want to die, I've been alive for three-hundred centuries. I want to see my sister Emily." I said, not noticing that there was someone in the room. Well I didn't know until I herd a high pitched scream and running footsteps.
"Keena-Chan? Are you alright?" My ears twitched at the unfamiliar voice. I turned to see the door open, and a boy about 13, with black hair and black eyes entered the room.
"Who are You? And where am I?" I asked, as I jumped up onto the nearby desk as the two people stared at me with wide eyes.
"Y-you can talk?" The girl asked, while the older boy stared at me with suspicion. I rolled my eyes, and responded with a sarcastic remark.
"No kidding, of course I can talk." I mewed, rolling my eyes and staring up at the two kids. "How in the name of StarClan can you talk?!" The girl exclaimed once more, and I just gave a soft and tired sigh.
"I got turned into a cat by the three Sanderson sisters," I explained, curling my tail over my front paws as I stared down at the wooden floor.
The girl blinked and stared down at me with confusion shining in her eyes. "The Sanderson sisters? Who are they?" I just blinked and stared at her in wide-eyed disbelief. "Wait, you two don't know the story of the Sanderson sisters?" I asked, in disbelief as they both just looked confused. I sighed and I paced around on top of the table as I pondered on what I should do.
"You never answered my first question," I finally said, as I stared at them with a bit of trepidation and nervousness.
"My name is Uchiha Itachi, and this is my younger sister, Uchiha Keena." The boy said, and I suddenly felt really depressed and I let out a mournful yowl. I hate this, I feel like the world hates me, another group of siblings. I curled up on the table as I stared blankly at the two kids.
"I want to go jump off a cliff," I mumbled into my paws, and I felt the two horrified gazes bore into me."W-why would you want to do that?" I heard Keena ask, as I lifted my head to look at them with sad and depressed yellow eyes. But before I could speak, I saw Keena come close to my face, but the part that made me uneasy was Keena's eyes, they were red with three black spinning things. I could only splutter out my answer in shock and a bit of fear.
"I-I-It's a long story. I don't want to talk about it. O-oh, and m-my name is T-Thackery Binx, but you c-can just c-call m-me B-Binx." I said, as I looked down at my paws. I then spoke up a few seconds later, in a shaky voice.
"W-what's with your eyes? T-that doesn't look normal," I said, as the older Uchiha just shrugged as he spoke up.
"Binx, you still didn't answer my sisters question. Why do you want to jump off a cliff? Do you have any sisters or brothers? Did someone you know jump off of a cliff?" Itachi asked. I instantly stood to my paws as I gave a hiss and a harsh glare in Itachi's direction.
"No, I don't! My sister had the life sucked out of her by three witches. And I tried to save her, but the Sanderson sisters cursed me to live as an immortal cat, I am forced to live with the gilt of not being able to save her. I've tried to kill myself, by jumping off a cliff. But that cursed spell kept me alive. As much as I want to die, to join my family on the other side, I can't, I've been alive for three-hundred years." I said, as tears ran down my face and wet my fur. Both Itachi and Keena just looked pale at what I had just said.
"Oh. My. Kami. That's terrible." Itachi said quietly. After a few moments of silence, Keena then spoke up. "Is there anyway that we can do to help you, Binx?" She asked as I lowered my head and curled up into a tight ball. There was nothing that they could do, I knew that. I just slowly let myself relax and calmed down after a few more minutes.
Keena's POV
I slowly approached Binx, I then picked the cat up as I stroked his fur. I looked to Itachi as I spoke quietly. "Should we tell Kaa-San and Oto-San?" I asked as Itachi replied after a couple of seconds.
"No, not yet, plus I don't think father would believe us anyways. We could just tell them that we found a stray cat." Itachi said as I nodded, I stood to my feet, still holding Binx. And Itachi and I headed to the kitchen, where are mother was most likely preparing lunch for us.
On the way to the kitchen, we made small talk about random things. While we talked, I noticed that Binx was watching us with curiosity and amusement shining in his bright yellow eyes. "What are thee talking about?" Binx mewed, looking up at me with wide eyes.
"Just random, unimportant stuff, nothing really important, Binx." I say, and Binx just nodded his head and stared down at his paws.
"Thou are smart for ones as young as thee. How old are thou?" Binx asked, and I paused in my petting and looked up at Itachi for help.
"Umm... Excuse me?" I asked, and Binx laughed quietly and stared up at me with amusement shining in his eyes. "Sorry, Keena-Chan. I come from a time where we spoke Elizabethan english," Binx quickly explained, his tone suggesting that he was feeling very out of place.
I just blinked and stared down at Binx with confusion once again shining in my dark eyes. "Umm... Say what now?" I asked, and Binx just sighed quietly and began the long and slow process of what this Elizabethan english and how it worked.
Mikato's POV
I was just about to go get my two oldest children to let them know that lunch was ready, but they came into the kitchen, just as I had taken one step. I was about to speak, but my youngest son spoke up first.
"Wow, you two found a stray cat?" Sasuke asked, as the two nodded. It was my daughter who spoke next.
"We were training on one of the training grounds, and we found him watching us from a tree. Oh, and his name is Binx." I just tilted my head at the strange cat name, then Itachi spoke up.
"We were wondering if we could keep him? Can we, mother?" He asked, and and I laughed quietly as I noticed that all three of my children looked at me with hopeful gazes. I laughed at there expressions, as I replied with a warm smile.
"It's alright with me, but I'll talk with you're father about it when he gets home later." I said, as my daughter set the cat on the floor, and she then started rummaging through the cabinets, I smiled at her, all of my children are kindhearted troublemakers, but that might have been my doing.
