"…Why is it just sitting there?" Valgaav stared out his window at the wet, saggy piece of fuzz that sat in front of his door. It was small and gray and mewled pitifully when a raindrop hit its head, which was frequently. Valgaav wrinkled his nose. He was too smart for the cute act. By George, he was nine and three quarters – no cuddly thing was gonna make him feel pity for it!

So he let it inside.


"His name is Shinagami-neko-chan. And he’s mine."

"Awww! He’s so kawaii!"

"No he’s not."

"Can I hold him?"

"No." Valgaav growled and pulled his new kitten away from Amelia’s reach. "He’s not your cat."

Amelia frowned and played with the zipper on her coat. "That’s not fair. You should let the kitty –"

"Not kitty. Shinagami-neko-chan."

"-Whatever. You should let Shinagami-neko-chan interact with other people."

"He doesn’t need to. He’s too good for you losers." With that, Valgaav and his new friend turned and went home.


Valgaav set Shinagami on the arm of his couch and went into the kitchen to get something to munch on. He pulled out some cheesy puffs and stepped back into the den, and gaped. Shinagami had torn the place to shreds. Fluff was all over the carpet, and the kitty culprit was stretching on the arm of the couch, as if nothing happened.

"Wh…What did you do?! Look at this!"

"Meow?"

"You’re bad!"

"M…Mew?"

Valgaav glared menacingly at Shinagami, causing the poor creature to tuck his ears back.

"Mew…" it whimpered and curled into a little ball.

"I can’t believe you. You’re a terrible pet! Go away!" And with that, little Valgaav tossed that kitty out the door and slammed it shut, growling. "I hate pets."

Valgaav walked to school with the usual apathetic expression on his face. His nose wrinkled when he began to hear the high-pitched squeals belonging to Amelia and Martina. Picking up a couple rocks, he started to head up their way.

"Ohhhhhhhhhhh! Look at him! He’s so cute!" cried Martina as she cradled the little gray kitten.

"I know! He’s so great!" cooed Amelia, tickling the kitty’s tummy.

Valgaav ground his teeth to see the face of his old friend, Shinagami. He glared at all three of them.

Now, Shinagami had a short but painful experience out of doors. Like most animals, he remembered his former friend and fiend. So, to relieve his kitty sense of vengeance, he latched onto Valgaav’s face, hissing wildly. Valgaav recoiled and wailed, trying to pry the cat off his face. Tearing the insane cat off his face, Valgaav ran back into his house, not coming out for months.


Oh yeah…that was cool. I think that was a little different! ^^ Hopefully I didn’t scare any Valgaav fans out there….
