Catherine's POV
———

"Cat! You're on!"

My ears twitch and I stand, hurrying out onto the stage. When I arrive, the stage lights train on me. The crowd cheers and I give them a cheeky smile.

"Hey, everyone! How are you all tonight?" They cheer again. "Good, good. Alright, for those who don't know about me—" I do a single handed cartwheel in a casual manner, putting them in slight awe. "—my name is Cat. I was a human before I was experimented on, turning me into a neko. And now I'm here, doing gymnastics for you, as it's always been a passion of mine."

The newcomers hum and stare at me, not sympathizing whatsoever. Though I don't expect them to. Most of them are nobles and don't give a shit about who those at the circus really are.

"But don't worry about me," I add on as I feel one stare that feels like sympathy, doing a handstand before using my hands to walk around a bit. When I stop, I go into a bridge by putting my feet forward, and then rise back up to my feet. "I escaped and am perfectly healthy now. In fact, not being exactly 'human' anymore made it easier for me to put on these shows for you!"

I then climb up a pole and stand at the top of it, looking into the crowd with a challenging grin. "Now that the explanation is over, who wants to see me do a trick?"

As if I hadn't done any already, heh.

The crowd cheers and I nod, preparing myself. "Alright, here I go!"

I jump off the pole and do multiple backflips in the air before grabbing onto a trapeze, swinging on it before getting hold onto another one. This one swings me in circles around and above the crowd. They watch in astonishment and I scare them by wrapping my tail around the bar and letting my hands go, the bar still swinging.

They gasp and some shriek in fear, but then clap at me having the strength to hold myself up with my tail. This took me so long to accomplish before, and I can now finally do it.

I smirk and speak loudly so everyone can hear me, crossing my arms. "I can feel the blood rushing to my head right now."

The crowd laughs.

"Anyway, those of you who were here during the beginning know that I couldn't do this trick before. You've seen me fall after attempting this trick for the first time, which by the way hurt like hell." More laughter. "Now you get to see me do this trick with ease. Are you proud of me?"

My oldest fans (who were the first to see me and those at the start) scream loudly, clapping for me. I smile confidently and wrap my legs up onto the bar, using my hands to pull myself up so I'm just sitting on the trapeze as if I'm on a regular swing.

I then position myself so that my back is leaning against one of the ropes and my legs are straddling the bar beneath me. I let my arms drop down at my sides and my head loll on one side of the rope, it only hanging hold on my right shoulder now. The only thing stopping me from falling is that rope, and my practice.

"Y'know, I've always loved cats. Ever since I was a kid," I start, then let myself fall out of the swing. Gasps emerge, but I swiftly grab the bar again upside down. I'm now holding onto the bar with one hand, and I swing myself a bit to gain even more momentum.

I then launch myself to grab onto another trapeze, before letting myself drop onto the net below me. I roll off of it and land on my feet, dusting myself off as if I had just been sitting on the sidewalk.

"I used to even put on these clip on ears and tail. But now I don't have to!" I do a side aerial, meaning I just did a cartwheel with no hands touching the floor. "I'm not saying that I'm glad I was experimented on, because that was a horrible experience."

I then do a roundoff going into a backflip, my feet landing on the ground with little difficulty. "I'm just saying that I wouldn't go back and change my past. And even though my story most likely isn't like yours, I hope you can say the same about your past too."

I turn around slowly in a circle so I can make eye contact with the crowd. "We all learn and grow from our experiences, as well as mistakes. For me, I've grown from being experimented on. I mean, look at me now! I'm doing something I love, despite holding my past on my shoulders. I don't let that stop me. I hope you can do the same thing with your stories."

And with that, I do multiple backhand springs in a row to make my exit. The crowd cheers for me and when I land my final backhand spring, Joker claps me on my shoulder.

"Nice job out there, Cat."

"Thanks," I reply with a smile before walking away. Before he can protest, I cut him off, "I'll meet you guys at the meeting once this is over, don't worry."

I clean myself up and by the time I'm done, it's time to go and meet our fans. I exit my tent and follow everyone else to where we will be meeting them. We don't do this often, so these people will have a once in a lifetime opportunity.

I stand beside Doll as we wait for this thing to start. I give a Cheshire-like grin to those waiting in line.

The event finally begins and it takes a few hours to meet everyone. Although, the final people I meet stuck out to me.

It was a butler and his young master.

The earl shook my hand firmly and said, "My name is Ciel Phantomhive, and this is my butler, Sebastian Michaelis."

I smile at both of them before giving a respectful bow, and then shake Sebastian's hand. "It's a pleasure! My name is Cat. Did you enjoy the show my friends and I put on?"

"Very much indeed," the butler nods, and I blush slightly.

"I'm glad you did! I know that schedules for young lords can be quite hectic, so I appreciate that you took time out of it to come see us."

"It wasn't an issue. My fiancé, Elizabeth Midford, wanting to come and see you. She's heard many great things about you particularly."

"Me? Why, I'm honored! Where is she, if I may ask? I would love to meet her."

"CIEL!~"

"Ah, there she is."

Elizabeth clutches onto Ciel's arm lovingly, then meets my gaze. She gasps and takes my hands, looking into my cat eyes. "Oh my goodness! You're beautiful, and your performance was outstanding!"

My face heats up from the compliments. "Aw, thank you so much, m'lady! I'm glad you think so."

We all have a little conversation before they have to leave, but not before Sebastian slips something into my hand.

I look at it, and see that it's a folded piece of paper. I open it and give it a read, blushing more and more as I come to the end.

Cat,

I'm intrigued by you. I know that your name isn't "Cat," but I will find out your real name in time. I think you're stunning and amazing, and I've been wondering: Would you like to go out with me sometime?

If so, meet me here Wednesday of next week. I wish to know you better.

-Sebastian Michaelis
