Hybrids and humans didn't get along all that well. Hybrids were sold like pets even though they were half human, and they were extremely expensive. Since they were part animal, most of them were homeless and didn't have jobs. Most places had signs up that said "For Hire, Humans Only" as most people believed that having hybrids in the workforce was "unsanitary", which made zero sense.

The World's Biggest Boyband, One Direction just won their first American Music Award for their Take Me Home album, and they all decided to buy a hybrid. After a long conversation, they all settled on wanting a cat hybrid.

When they were heading to an All Hybrid Shelter, they stopped midway at a gas station for snacks, as it was a long drive. But when they were on their way in, the heartbreaking sound of a cat yoweling in pain followed by a human sob caught their attention.

Harry was fast to follow the sound and the boys were hot on his tail, turning into an alleyway, where they found a very small hybrid, curled up into a ball in a cardboard box. "Hey, kitty," Harry whispered, making the hybrid gasp as she didn't see the boys coming.

Liam was fast to hush her and reached forward for her to smell his hand. "What happened, little one?" Louis asked, taking in the deep cut on the cat girl's face. "Bad... Bad man..." The hybrid struggled to speak, her thick Ukrainian accent making it harder for the boys to understand.

"A bad man hurt you?" Zayn asked crouching next to Liam and Harry in front of the box. The hybrid just nodded her head. "What's your name, pretty kitty?" Niall asked, making the girl blush. "R... Rus... Ruslana..." Ruslana stuttered, making the boys' hearts break. The poor thing could barely speak and she was scared.

"Does your owner know you're out here?" Harry asked, taking in the collar around her neck. "Bad man," Ruslana immediately shook her head. "Your owner is the bad man that hurt you?" Liam asked, making her nod. The boys shared a glance.

Paul was going to kill them, but screw it. They couldn't leave her like this "Can I pick you up?" Liam asked, making the hybrid eye him warily. Ruslana slowly nodded, but she picked up something that started glowing in her hands and held it to her chest. A small, colorful, motion activated cat ball was in the hybrid's small hands.

Liam carefully reached into the box and lifted her shockingly very light body into his arms. Ruslana looked smaller than she did in the box and she was shaking. She protectively slid her tail between her legs and burrowed her face into Liam's neck.

"She's so small, Lou," Harry whispered to the older lad, making him hush Harry. "I know, Haz. But she's going to be okay," He ruffled the taller boy's curls. Harry looked like he was about to cry, but he trusted his best friend's words. Zayn slung his arm around Harry's shoulders as the group followed Liam who was already carrying the small hybrid back to the tour bus.

Ruslana squeezed her eyes shut, holding her favorite toy ball in her hands close to her chest. She refused to open her eyes for a long time, but when she did a few minutes later, she was in Liam's lap, and sat on a couch. It was a bit of a cramped space, but it looked neat and at home.

The four other boys that had been with Liam sat around her, talking amongst themselves and an older man that wasn't there before was watching her closely. "Ruslana," Liam whispered, making the hybrid flinch, not expecting someone to call her name. Liam hushed the hybrid and rubbed her back. "It's okay, little one. We're not going to hurt you," Louis said from his spot beside Liam.

Paul was mad that he had to cancel the appointment set up at the All Hybrids Shelter, but the more he looked at Ruslana, the more his heart melted, and the more he wanted to help her. Niall gave her a toothy smile and waved, making her blush and timidly wave back before lowering her gaze to the floor.

"We're going to stop at a hotel for the night and we're going to give you to our friend, Louise, who's a girl, and she's going to clean you up, yeah?" Liam asked, making the hybrid's eyes widen. "Hel... Help me?" She asked, making him smile. "Yeah, we're going to help you," Liam said.

Harry walked over and knelt in front of her. "Your shoes are untied," He said softly before tying the laces for her. "Names?" Ruslana asked, looking around the room at the boys. "Oh! I'm Harry," Harry said before pointing at each of the lads as he said their names. "That's Niall, Louis, Liam, Zayn, and Paul," He said, making Ruslana look at each of the boys with curious eyes.

The drive to the hotel was at least forty minutes away, and the boys learned that Ruslana couldn't speak English all that well. She tried her best, but she had a very limited vocabulary. The good thing was, she understood English really well, it's just she struggled to speak it. When Louise came to get her, Ruslana immediately curled up to her, finding security with another female.

Louise had to bathe the poor hybrid and she had to get Paul's first aid kit to put antibiotics on the deep wound on Ruslana's cheek. And by the time Ruslana was all dressed and ready for bed, the hybrid was tuckered out on the spare bed of Louise's hotel room.

When the next morning came around, Ruslana was awoken to soft voices. She opened her eyes to find that all the boys were getting their hair done. Ruslana let out a soft meow, making the boys turn to her. "Hey, kitty," Louis greeted, sitting at her feet. "Oop, looks like you've dropped this," He said, bending down and handing her the toy ball that must have rolled off the bed that night when she was asleep.

Ruslana gasped and yanked the toy from Louis, holding it to her chest protectively as she sat up quickly, her fur standing up on its end as she let out a weak hiss while baring her fangs. "Whoa! I wasn't gonna take it from you, love!" Louis said, putting his hands up in faux surrender. Ruslana eased up and looked down. "Sor... Sorry," She whispered, making Louis coo. "It's not a problem, love. You obviously really like that toy," Louis said, chuckling fondly.

Zayn sat down next to Ruslana, his hair done in a neat quiff. "Hi, Ruslana," He said, giving the hybrid a gentle smile. "Do you wanna play?" He asked, gesturing to the toy in Ruslana's hands. Ruslana's ears perked up hopefully, making him chuckle. "C'mon," he said, offering to take the ball. Ruslana looked down at the toy before slowly giving it to Zayn who gratefully took it before setting it on the bed and rolling it across the mattress.

And that's the story of how One Direction had to pay for new bedsheets, as Ruslana got too excited and accidentally extracted her claws and ripped the sheets while playing with Zayn, Louis, and Niall. She apologized profusely, but the boys just smiled and shrugged, having way more than enough money to afford cheap hotel sheets.

The boys called Ruslana's owner, only to get a "You can fucking keep her. I don't give a fuck," as a response. And boy, did the boys keep her.

Five months go by, and Ruslana has never been happier. It took her a really long time to open up, but she was glad that she did. The boys spoiled her with all of her favorite things.

One of those things is actually happening now, as Ruslana is laying on a hotel bed while Niall petted, rubbed, and scratched her stomach, earning loud purrs of pure happiness. The cut on her cheek has fully healed and didn't leave a scar.

Zayn was playing with hair, Liam was scratching her ears, Harry was painting her fingernails, Louis was rubbing her knees that rested in his lap, and all the boys were singing to her.

From cardboard box to on tour with the Biggest Boyband in the world, who were the best owners Ruslana could ask for, things were amazing. Ruslana found a permanent home with permanent, loving people that she knows will take care of her.
