The cat that crossed my path

How we met

It was a decent day, but you could say it was a tad dreary and dark around my school today. It seemed almost weirded than usual. 'What's wrong with everyone...?' That was the only thought that spun around my head. People had bags under their eyes, skin looked pale, and they all looked ill. Another weird thing was what our science teacher created.

He was a cool teacher, had a lavatory that seemed like it was from back then. He was the real scientist from all others to me. He was able to create and change physical things, which were seemingly impossible to me.

That's when he my teacher, created a cat... No, a girl.

A girl with cat-like eyes, thick messy hair, and reflexes like a cat. Not only was she like a cat, she really WAS a cat; A black cat with two different colored eyes. One yellow and the other green. It's quiet extraordinary and beautifully mysterious. Our teacher was shocked by what he created as if he never planned this though, which to what was he never really planned to. His real diabolical plan was to make the cat learn human language not to turn into an extravagant human girl.

Our teacher had nothing else to say, he was silent. So was the curious crowd. Some of our classmates were in utter dismay, while others were wide-eyed. The cat simply stared and had no emotion to the class. She instead kept her eyes on me. It seemed that even though she had no emotion; Her eyes were wavering with emotion. Her eyes were filled with curiosity and happiness. Though it had a speck of shyness in the corner of her eye.

We stared, she stared. A room of soon filled silence that makes the click clack of the moving clock louder than I remember. A second, a minute, time has passed. Only thing in mind was questions, curiosity, and joy.

Finally out of a somewhat daze the teacher walks up to the girl transformed cat. "Hello there, may I ask your name..?", Those were the first words that came to his mouth. The response was nothing but a simple "Cat.". The girls name was Cat. That was all, nothing but a cat was all there was to say.

The girl or as her name is Cat, then stares at me. She then points at me and says, "Who is he?" I look bewildered. 'Why would she want to know me?' I clear my throat and say "My name is Vincent. I may say though, why in the world would you want to know my name exactly?" She does nothing but silently repeat my name and mutters, "It's your aura. I can feel it, you're strong." the whole class laughs, thinking that what she said was nothing but plain mockery. Cat's pupils soon dilate and she hisses, "Hey it's rude to laugh! Just because someone says something completely ridiculous doesn't mean you tease and snicker at the same race of yours!" The room again, goes silent. Only this time there was mutters of, "Sorry." Or, "I never meant to tease nor laugh.". As she grunts in accomplishment she slowly walks up to me. The cat-like girl is only a inch or two shorter than me. Though her appearance seems much more courageous than me. She stops at my chest and does the unexpected. She hugs me. Her sharp nails clutch into my shirt, I feel as if she tattooed a marking upon my skin. Cause as soon as her nail dug into my skin I can slowly feel a burning touch upon my fragile skin. The cat then slowly backs away, she mutters some sort of spell upon the silence.

I look around me. The room freezes in movement; The sound of the ticking clock has stopped as the hand of the arrow stays put. Only Cat and I are physically moving. I look at her, she stares then smiles widely like the Cheshire Cat. After her miraculous smile, I slowly faded into the darkness. The last thing I heard was, "Nice to meet you Vincent. We'll be having a good time together." before everything became mute and dark.
