This earth we have lived on for millions of years is no longer a safe place all because of one individual. Monsters, this place is full of them. Yes, I am talking about living people, heartless merciless human beings destroying all that we've created in the time we had existed. I'm cat, one of the victims as I call it. You see, I was taken from home at an early age. I was adopted by a molecular biologist he saw me as nothing else but a rag doll, a dummy to experiment on. On may 30th he called me to the lab to do more tests. When I had gotten through security I saw what I was in for, I was going to get another animals DNA injected into me. This has happened before though, it had accomplished nothing I guess this time he did his research, haha doubt it. As I approached him I began to feel dizzy, sick in the stomach, 'nervousness' I told myself. I sat myself down and let him inject me with whatever he had. I began to grow more and more dizzy, soon after I felt the sting of the last injection I passed out.
Molecular biologists P.O.V
I wonder if this time it will work... I had injected her with a kittens DNA this time instead of a cat. I had come to the conclusion that she is growing, becoming an adult. Therefore a adults DNA won't be able to survive in her bloodstream so, I used kitten DNA instead. seems legit right? Your probably wondering why I did such a thing to her well, this isn't a curse it's a gift you see, she will have more strength and stamina physically and mentally. Yes she will have to hide a small tail and ears but that isn't to hard is it? Ill have to leave her to get used to her new 'body parts' so I have bought her an apartment and everything she needs to survive.
Cats P.O.V
I awoke in a small room, 'looks nothing like my room' I thought to myself. I looked around the room, taking in my surroundings on the bedside table I saw a note it read 'dear cat I've left you on your own, you need to live a life by yourself, experience what life is. I've left you some money and food I shall check up on you every month or so. Love from dean' I'm so confused why would he keep me in the lab for so long and just decide to let me out? What is up with him? Wait, his name is dean?
I walk over to the full length mirror on the door leading to a hall way. I look nothing like myself....'what are these' I think to myself as I poke the two little points on top of my head. 'Cat ears' I breath out in amazement. I carefully study myself in the mirror. Black skinny jeans, grey shirt, no shoes, messy hair. Gosh my hair looks like a birds nest, how the hell did I spot my ears in all of that? I lean in closer to the mirror staring intently at my ears..... MY HUMAN EARS! I quickly pull back the hair covering the flat area where my human ear should be. Oh crap, I've got to hide that or ill be shoved into another lab.
I walk out the double doors and onto the balcony and take in my surroundings. It's a beautiful place, it's like I'm in the middle of a forest. But if you look far enough you can see the tops of all the buildings in the city. The sun shines over the tops of the trees, making them look like they're glowing with fireflies. I look back through the doors and into what I imagine is my bedroom. Black and blue walls. Blue at the bottom, fades into black at the top. Black bed covers to cover the kind size bed that takes up a quarter of my room. a dark blue head board with swirls and hearts cut out of it. A cupboard in the corner and my door with a full length mirror on it. Nice, black and blue themed, love it.
I slowly walk down stairs to see the most GORGEOUS guy shaking his backside to my favourite band sleeping with sirens. Oh god, dat ass. He has longish black hair with a blue tint, very thin figure. Black skinny jeans to suit myself and a green day shirt. Hmm I'm guessing he has a nice music taste. I hear a light cough and I look up from his torso which I'd previously been checking out. I look down in embarrassment as soon as I see his eyes upon mine. I shift my feet nervously under his gaze. I hear a soft chuckle "hey I'm Dakota Meain, dean is my dads friend. Dad sent me to live here and look after you."
"I-uh-um-I I'm cat, I-uh hi" I manage to choke out. I hear him chuckle as he slowly approaches me. My heart beats faster and faster. Oh my god! What is happening to me?! I've known this guy not even 60 seconds and I'm acting like a lovesick puppy!!!
"I know your name... I know everything about you" he smirks putting his thumb under my chin.
I can feel the heat climb from my neck all the way up to rest upon my cheeks. Damn this guy, he knows all my secrets, flaws, soft spots, hates, loves, weaknesses, strengths and all I know about him is his god-damned name!!!
"Since you claim to know everything about me, why don't you fill me in on yourself?" I say my voice flooded with this new found confidence. I could tell he was shocked by my actions because his jaw went slack and his eyes got wide. I chuckle.
His eyes narrow "what are you laughing at?" He asks playfully.
"Oh nothing..." I reply walking over to the counter and sitting on it next the the stove where he was cooking a wonderful smelling omelet for two. He shrugs and starts to professionally flip the omelet in the pan. I watch in awe. I could never do that! Last time I attempted to do that I got half an egg stuck on the roof of the lab, it's still there. At least I can say I've left my mark on the place.
"Show off" I mutter under my breath.
"Excuse me?" He say acting like that hurt him "i can be a great guardian, and I will prove it to you every chance I get thank you very much!" He says in a terrible fake British ascent.
I laugh and shake my head turning up the music when my chemical romance starts to play.
2 hours later
"You have a good taste in music" I say absentmindedly flicking through his stack of CDs. He has every album from every band I can think of. We are currently listening to satellites by sleeping with sirens whilst he shakes his butt all over the place screaming every word. He stops singing to reply to me.
"Yeah I-uh-uhm that's why I wanted to be the one to look after you. Because I knew we would get along perfectly. Same music taste. Same fave colours. Same interests. We both paint. Y'know were like distant twins!" He says, yelling the last part.
I laugh at that statement 'were like distant twins' I've always wanted a brother. Obviously I never had once since I was a experiment in a lab.
"You paint?" I asked him, he didn't seem like a artistic person.
"Yeah..." He mumbled, rubbing the back of his neck. I followed him as he walked into his room. He walked over to the biggest canvas I'd ever seen.
He turned around and said "I wanna paint something with you, something we can both relate to"
Next day
I woke up with a very sleepy Dakota all up in my face. "AHHHHHHHH" I screamed falling out of the bed hitting my head on the ground. I groaned and sat up holding my hand to the back of my head.
"What the f- oh, good morning cat" he said cheerfully as if it wasn't 5am.
"What the hell are you doing in my bed?" I asked looking up to him from when I was seated on the ground.
"I was lonely and cold" he said innocently. I scoffed and gave him a sure-you-were look. He rolled his eyes and padded over to the bathroom.
"DAKOTA! THERE ARE THREE MEN IN THE LIVING ROOM HELP!!!" I yelled upstairs the moment I saw three very tall guys standing in the living room. They all had black skinny jeans on, one had a you me at six shirt on. Another had a plain white v-neck shirt on and the last one had the exact same shirt as I wore, an asking Alexandria shirt.
"Hey! Noah!" Dakota greeted v-neck boy who I'm guessing is Noah.
"Hello! Who's this beautiful black haired girl standing in the doorway?" Noah said as his eyes flicked over to mine. Dakota turned around to face me and said.
"Oh, this is cat, she's my friend and roommate"
