What It's Like To Live With The Pals (DISCONTINUED)

Chapter 25

Y/N POV

I see a swirl of galaxy and finally, I open my eyes to see the house. I look down to see my... my own body! "We're back!" I say joyously. Denis is smiling slightly, obviously in shock. How long were we in Cat World!? I aged at least two years in Human years! Wow, I'm thirteen. Thump. I look behind me to see a dark-brown haired girl with bright green eyes and tan skin come out of the portal. "L-Leopardstripe?" Denis steps out to her. "Lily." She smiles shyly. "Oh my gosh, you're beautiful!" Denis says, hugging Lily. "Th-Thanks." She stutters.

I call Sam and Jent while Denis and Lily talk. "Ok, they're gonna be here in a few hours." I hang up the phone. "Thanks, Y/N, for calling them." Denis smiles and looks at me. Then he's goes back to Lily. Lily looks to be in her twenties. I ignore it and go to the kitchen. "Lily, do want anything?" I say, opening the fridge. "Uhm.. Sure! W-What do you have?" She asks. "Uh.. water, OJ, cheeto's and... cheese." I look again into the fridge. Why are there cheeto's in the fridge!? I look over at Lily. "I-I'll have cheeto's." I nod and take the bag out of the fridge.

I walk outside and close my eyes. It's good to be outside, not as a cat. My eyes seem to have a mind of their own, because they move themselves over to my Mom's house. A car is there, and it looks to be hers. A face peeks out from the windows. My mom? What does she want? Her eyes lock with mine for a split second. Next thing I know, she's opening the door of her house. I'm too shocked and afraid to move my legs, so I just stand there. Looking into my Mom's eyes. Her feet move down the steps in slow motion. My legs shake. She won't hurt me.. She starts to walk to the house, and faster every second. Her eyes.. so empty. It sends a shiver down my spine. She's less than two yards away from me when I open my door frantically and lock the door knob. "Y/N?" Denis sits up on the couch. "What's wrong?" He asks and walks over to me. I'm guarding the door when Denis reaches me. I breath heavily and shake. He picks me up and brings my to the couch. "What's the matter?" Denis asks calmly. Lily rubs my back softly. "M-.. Mo- M-..." I can't say it.. "'M' what?" Denis says in a soothing voice. "M-M-Mom."

As if on cue, we hear a loud knocking at the door. "Lily, just protect her." I hear Denis whisper to Lily. She nods and hugs me. I sob a little bit in Lily's arms, but she doesn't seem to care. I guess she got used to the dirt and grime of being a medicine cat. So, she probably isn't affected that much about a few tears.

Denis looks out the windows. "Ok, Lily.." Denis' voice trails off. "Uhm.. you need to go upstairs, lock your self in a room, and hide in a closet with a knife." Denis explains. Me and Lily nod. I grab a butcher knife and Lily runs upstairs after me. Lily picks my room, so I know where things are. And my closet is big. I open the closet doors and step inside. Shirts, dresses, pants, and skirts slap my face. "C'mon, Lily." I say, glancing at the bedroom door. She nods and steps in. As we close the doors of the closet, I reach down to get a flashlight. "Lily, can you hold this? Thanks, if we hear the slightest sound, turn off the flashlight and don't move." I whisper, gripping the knife firmly in my hands.

Lily turns off the flashlight to a creaking at the bedroom door. I get the knife ready. "Y/N? Lily? It's Denis." I peak out the closet door, and see Denis' face. I open the doors slowly, still having the knife in my hand. Just in case. "Oh, Denis, you're safe!" I run to him and hug him. Lily hugs us both, making it a group hug.

Bonus (Denis POV)

I peer out the windows, and sure enough, it's Y/N's mom. She looks so much older, though. She knocking on the door.

As I open the door, I wonder if I should let her in or not. I take a deep breath, and pull the door open. "Uh, hel-" "Where is Y/N?" She cuts me off and looks behind me. "Y/N? Never heard of them." I say. She gives me a look and snickers. "Of course you know her, you helped her get me into jail." She scoffs. "I don't know what you're talking about." The mother pushes her way into the house and looks around. "Get out of my house." I yell and push her outside. She trips down the steps, and falls unconscious. Before she wakes up, I decide to call 911.

I run upstairs, and search every room for the girls. "Y/N? Lily? It's Denis." I see out the corner of my eye, Y/N opening the closet door with a knife in her hand. She runs to me and hugs me, and Lily joins, too.

Next chapter will have Sam and Jent in it I promise!
