Neko's Aren't Toys

Chapter 1 Why'd Ya Have To Sell Me To Those Mean Old Men?

Virgil ran out of the forest, listening out for-

"Ey! There 'e is!"

He ran with the wind, praying to every deity he could think of that he wouldn't go back. When the shouting died down, and he couldn't hear anyone following him, he slowed down some.

Ugh, this stupid outfit is trash. Honestly, who wears these anymore?

Whatever, I could probably sleep here for a while. Then I could work on hiding.

Virgil curled up in the corner, shivering and uncomfortable, when the adrenaline rush wore off. He passed out from pain and exhaustion.

Virgil woke up to find himself in soft clothes, a warm bed, and bandaged up. He looked around, listening as well. There was a man in the next room working on the computer. A bouncier man downstairs cooking something. Another man was singing something from... Disney? That's from Disney, one of his past owners loved that song.

The singing man started to come upstairs. His voice eventually quieted to a hum when he got to the door. Virgil looked at the door as he opened it. He was tall and muscular, he had a caramel skin tone that matched his reddish-brown hair. His sparkling emerald eyes were bright with mirth, and surprise. Probably a gentle giant, might have a temper though.

"Why hello there! I'm Roman my friends and found you earlier in that alleyway. Is it okay if I check your bandages?"

Virgil nodded and held out his arm with the most bandages. Roman checked both arms, legs, and torso.

"Alright, everything seems in order. Do you want me to introduce the others?"

"Sure."

Roman picked him up and took him to the room with the computer man.

"This is Logan, he's a workaholic but he's nice, blunt, and smart."

His hair was completely black, the computer light made him look ghostly pale. The words on the screen reflected in his glasses that hid dark blue, intelligent, and inquisitive eyes.

"Hi."

"Nice to meet you. I still have some things to do, so if you please."

"No problem, by Logie Bear."

"Will you stop with that stupid name!"

"Never. Bye."

Roman walked downstairs to a kitchen to find a lightly tanned, short man with bouncy blonde curls.

"Hello there Patton."

"Hey there kiddo! Oh he's awake! How ya feelin'?"

"Good."

The man was as bouncy as his curls with the freckles and beaming smile to match. He had similar glasses to Logan that hid pale blue eyes riddled with excitement and mischief. Wow, he's almost cuter than me.
