(Neko's POV)

Catnap and Dogday were already in bed, almost sound asleep if it wasn't for Catnap constantly turning in his sleep...

I was curled up like a normal cat at the end of the bed, I wasn't tired, I was actually kind of bored and wanted to go do something...

Although Dogday and Catnap were too tired to... "Mate" with me, so I was out of options there... Maybe I could get some luck by asking to go outside?

I'm normally never allowed to go outside on my own, Catnap always has to keep an eye on me, he always tells me that I'm too dangerous to be left alone.

"Catnap...? Can I go play outside...? I'm bored..." I asked softly, Catnap sat up and rubbed his eye as he looked at me with a disappointed expression.

"No Neko, it's late, and you're not allowed outside on your own." Catnap said as he laid back down, sighing as he sunk into the covers of the bed.

"Please?" I asked again.

"No" He replied back to me.

"Please?" I asked again.

"No" He replied back to me.

"Please?" I asked again.

"No" He replied back to me.

"Please?" I asked again.

"No" He replied back to me.

"PLEASE?!" I shouted, making Dogday groan as he sat up and turned to Catnap.

"Catnap, just give him what he wants... He won't stop whining otherwise..." Dogday said, scratching me under my chin.

Mmmm... I like when people do that... Doesn't matter who, if I get scritches, I'm their's now...

"Oh my god, fine... Go play outside, Neko." Catnap grumbled, his head falling to his pillow as he quickly fell asleep.

"No going further than the end of my lawn, okay? So that means no road." Dogday stated as I nodded happily and ran downstairs, opening the front door and running outside.

"Hahaha! Yay!! I get to be outside by myself!!" I cheered as I spun around in circles, listening to the crickets and other sounds of nature as I ran around happily.

I rolled around, ran in circles, did some basic stunts, and overall just began enjoying myself, being able to run around as much as I wanted.

Although I quickly realized that... This was sort of boring... It's so dark... To be honest, I can't even see where I am, or where I'm going!

Let me feel around...

Hm...

Are those... Leaves...? From bushes...? And trees that I feel?

Oh no...

Where the hell am I...?! I'm somewhere in the forest... But where in the forest?!

I wandered around for a couple of minutes, trying to find my way out of the forest as I constantly felt like someone, or something was watching me.

Eventually, I saw some type of light, it was bright and whiteish, it was actually able to light up some of the way in the forest, I could even see Dogday's house!

But... There was one problem...

I looked back at the light and realized... That the moon was above me... Not behind me...

...

so what the hell is staring at me in between those trees...?

"So you've finally noticed me." I heard a robotic voice come from the light, I tensed up and put my tail between my legs without moving an inch.

"There's no need to be scared. Come closer." The voice said as a very, very skinny metallic hand reached from the darkness and held itself out.

"I promise I will not hurt you. I only wish to speak with you, as you have peaked my interest." The voice stated, I turned back to Dogday's house slowly as I then turned back to the voice.

There were now two lights, they were... Eyes... Staring at me... They were so bright, but beautiful... I always liked vibrant colors...

I slowly reached my hand out and felt the metal on the voice's hand, it slowly closed its hand as it led me deeper into the trees.

I stayed silent as the two eyes stared at me indefinitely, not looking back to see where we were going at all.

"We should be far enough away now." The voice said as I felt something lean towards me, as if a tall creature had its face almost against mine.

The two eyes lit up the creature's face as it showed itself to be a mangle of robotic parts, bolts and steel clashed together.

It was wearing a hood over its face as the creature's face quickly dimmed down to where I could only see its hood and eyes.

"...So... What is it that you want from me?" I asked slowly as my tail stayed in between my legs nervously.

"First, I'd like to talk to you about your... Mental issues..." The voice started.

Oh boy... Let me guess, another therapist wannabe... I don't get the point of you guys...

Last time I actually told one of those guys anything, I was put in a white jacket and forced into a room with nothing to do...
