Lost And Found

[Guest]

"Poco?? Where the hell are you, Poco?!" Her voice rumbled throughout the house as she waded through the sea of pillows, clothes, make-up, and other typical girl junk you'd find in one's room. "Poco" was the name Blanca decided to give to her new feline companion, a stray kitten with bright blue eyes and an excessively fluffy white coat.

Blanca never came across stray kittens on her way home, but the very night before, she had stumbled upon a box with the poor little thing sitting inside, meowing to her for food or so she guessed. She immediately empathized and took it home, giving it fish, milk, and love; she remembered cradling the thing, tickling its' small tummy, and placing a small bell around it's neck before submitting to the call of sleep. But before she could even discover Poco's gender, he/she/it/whatever had already vanished the next morning.

After a good while of searching her humble abode, she falls back on her desk-side chair with a sigh and decides to draw out her new companion. "She's not as fast as me, so I'm pretty sure that she hasn't gone far." She thinks to herself as she completes the drawing, quite accurately. With it, she sets off from her rented-out room to search the city for her lost kitten.

Hours pass, and all the searching and countless inquiries bring her efforts to no avail. With a sigh, she takes out her phone from her pocket to check the time, "18:43", the digits flash before her eyes and taunt her like a piece of string being pulled away from her grasp. "Jeez, Poco. Where could you have gone?" She mutters to herself worriedly as she continues walking forward, her eyes fixed on the drawing before her.

IT was an amazingly beautiful day!! The sun was shining, the birds where chirping and you could smell the flowers on the spring breeze....And Adryion found it all highly annoying. He had a raging hangover, a stubbed toe, and to top it all off he honestly couldn't remember why he was in east city...."GOD DAMN IT!!!" He stopped suddenly and tapped at his skull...thinking, thinking HARD!! "Was picking up....No no thats not it i must have been...." He started back up then, paying no heed to the direction he was going, or the people he ran into,displaced or pissed off with his absent minded behavior.

This continued on for some unknown amount of time, This wondering around east city...until....until the unthinkable happened! He saw even in this slightly incoherent state...a fluffy white kitten stuck in the uppermost branches of a tree.....A rather tall and intimidating tree at that. It stood over eighteen feet tall, with thick leafy branches. In fact most normal people wouldn't have spotted the kitten, but as few people knew Adryion had kitty vision.

He stopped there for a second and stared dumb founded at the trapped cat. Who could have let such an adorable and innocent creature into such danger? IT was nearly unthinkable!!

In fact it almost sent him to a fit of rage.....But....that wouldn't have helped the poor little fuzz ball stuck in the tree, well it just melted away!! He looked around really quick then started up the tree. One agonizing foot at a time. Youd think him being as tall as he was, hed have an easy time of it....Sadly that wasn't the case. But after much swearing, many cuts and more then a few holes he managed to reach the upper most level of the tree. There he came face to face with the incarnation of kitten cuteness. "D'awwwwwwww!!" The little thing made eyes at him and he gingerly scooped it up before placing it in one of his over sized pockets

When he reached street level once more he took the clawing and mewling feline from his coat and went about calming the poor creature."Tiss all right little one...your safe now.." He beamed down at the little thing stroking its ruffled fur. "ohh god...i wanna keep you....."

Blanca continues to look at the drawing, surveying the details in fear that she's made a mistake in drawing the kitten. Was there a tuft of hair she forgot to add? Nah.. She was pretty sure she got the eye-color right. There was no way she could possibly forget the sky-blue orbs that hypnotized her into taking the tiny, innocent animal to the safety of her home. With a sigh, she shoves the drawing into the left pocket of her hoodie and trudges forward, ignoring the faces she passed by, for she had recognized them all in her investigation hours before.

But wait! There was one person standing in the distance, and she didn't recognize him. Maybe this guy might know something! Of course, that was the usual thought she had with everyone she saw until' they confirmed otherwise. But she wasn't giving up until' the kitten was safe in her arms. "Excuse me!" She calls out as she begins approaching Adryion, in as much haste as she can without revealing her ability of inhumane speed. "I've lost my cat.. She's white, tiny, extremely fluffy, and has really blue eyes.." She stopped for a moment as she shuffled through the contents of her pocket until' she found the drawing. "Well, you get the picture." She finished as she held up the sketch for him to see.

Meanwhile, the kitten poked it's head out of Adryion's pocket to observe the exchange between the two human-like creatures that towered above it's small head. It recognized the female, but was much too comfortable in the over-sized pocket to make a sound.

He continued to cue over his new found kitty who he had named.....Spritz, well he hadn't exactly named it but he thought Spritz would make a fine name for such a fine feline!! But what would Val say...when he brought home...another cat... Ahh well better to ask for forgiveness then permission. He could only smile then and tickle the kittens puffy head.

Thats when it happened....Thats when his kitten based universe came crashing down...Because this random(if more then slightly attractive) Woman had described and drawn his little spritz to perfection..."Yes.....ive seen her......" God damn it!! Why didnt i lie? IT would have been easy to say, no sorry miss i haven't seen your cat, and even easier to come up with a sleazy come on to make her high tail it away... Ohh yes he was yet again caught in the kitty haze...and he hated him self for it....He just couldn't act normal when the little buggers where around."She was stuck in the tree....and crying and i couldn't let the little thing just stay stuck up there..."

While this was going on the little puffy kitten had gotten more then a little fed up with its bed it kept on moving and jostling while it was trying to sleep!! So to make its displeasure known it dug its sharp little claws in threw the fabric and into Adryions tender belly! Which caused him to yelp in a little bit of sudden pain.

With a start one hand flew to his pocket and pulled the little cats claws free of the material and well him. He then looked down at the woman a small smile on his face."It seems she doesn't like me moving to much...."

Her eyes gleamed instantly upon hearing that this stranger had seen her missing companion, even more so as he had told her he rescued the small and helpless creature from the tree. A kind gesture it was, she thought. And she was quite lucky that this individual came to her little Poco's rescue before sundown, otherwise her head would have probably exploded from all that stress put into finding her companion. The evening hours may have given her the freedom to run as freely and as quickly as possible, and the insane speed she possessed would definitely come to her advantage if she hadn't found her tiny friend, yet. But her energy levels had gotten the best of her thanks to her search. If she were a battery, her life would probably linger close to an unstable level of 35%.

But her lack of energy was no longer a concern, for her search ended here. With a sigh of relief, she folds the drawing and stuffs it back into the pocket of her hoodie before she looks up to the man with gratitude. Avoiding direct eye contact of course, as she usually did with everyone she conversed with. "Well, I apologize if Poco put you through any trouble.. Thank you so much for finding her!" She replied happily, returning the smile as she began to take note of the man's features.

There was something quite.. Different about this individual, on a biological scale at least. Her acute sense of smell began telling her that his wasn't completely human. But eh, he found her cat. Whatever he was would be a matter she'd be concerned over in other circumstances.

"It seems she doesn't like me moving to much...." Said the stranger.

"Well, Poco's a little silly like that." Blanca added with a chuckle, recalling the difficulty in keeping the kitten still as she took her home the night before. She took note of his "living" coat-pocket, taking a wild guess that Poco was probably resting in there. And indeed, the kitten was tucked in safely, shifting around for a bit before poking her head out of Adryion's pocket to look up at him. Her sky blue eyes seemed to sparkle sweetly and innocently at him. It was almost as if she were using her cat-like charms to talk him into keeping her there.

"May I please hold her?" Blanca asks. Finally, she would be able to hold the small animal in her arms again! It was the moment she had been waiting for since she had realized that the cute small ball of fluff had gone missing.

She wanted Spritz? He could see it in her eyes....He could see it in her body...but most of all her words where what gave her away!! Did she think he would give up this pretty kitty just because she asked? Ohh how naive!! Ohh how incredibly tasty.....He licked his lips lightly so he could taste the air, and the females scent. He couldn't help but smile then...She Taste/smelled...succulent...and some how strange....almost feline! Well wasn't that a treat!! A fellow cat lover.....

Well it would be rude not to respond...so he didnt for a few seconds and just gazed at the cute little guy/gal in his pocket...Those wide blue kitten eyes just begging him to keep the little guy...."ohh its no trouble at all HE is just fine thanks to my timely rescue" In fact spritz was more then fine...he/she was thoroughly enjoying watching these to talk...

He petted the little guy some and grinned"Hes to comfy to move right now....why dont you just let him rest...and when he feels up to it im sure spritz would love to say hello! Hes such a good kitty!" Even if the cat wasn't comfy he wouldn't have handed the sweet little thing over...finders keepers...looser weepers...

Blanca raised an eyebrow at his statement. “What exactly is this guy’s deal?” She gave a proper description, and was even polite in asking him for her cat back. And the way he accented the 'he', well she felt slightly embarrassed as she herself didn’t know Poco’s actual gender. Did he manage to find out before she did? Nonetheless, it still gave her a feeling that she’d be in for a long discussion with this stranger, and she was giving anything to be home right about now. “Listen.. I’ve had a really rough day, and I would really really like to have Poco back, please.” She says, accentuating her pet’s name with her natural Esparian accent.

“He’s too comfy to move right now.. Why don’t you just let him rest.. And when he feels up to it, I’m sure Spritz would love to say hello! ..”

The rest of his words were muffled jibberish to Blanca’s ears. She couldn’t believe what she had just heard! “Listen, I don’t know what game you’re playing at.. But if I were in your shoes, and wanted to keep that little kitten in your pocket, I would have not said anything.” She says, finishing her sentence through gritted teeth. She was reaching her boiling point, and she made this obvious with the glare she shot at him through her cat-like eyes. Her slit-shaped pupils reach full contraction from all the built up frustration she accumulated prior to finding Poco, and although she was fully aware that her anger must have caused them to appear like so, she paid no heed. He was definitely not a normal person human being, and if he got scared and ran he’d be in for a chase he’d definitely have no way out of.

Just then, Poco/Spritz began to scramble out of the oversized coat pocket, looking back at the two humans in a seemingly playful manner before finally falling out of the pocket and scampering off.

“So much for that, eh?” Blanca smiles to herself as she sees her chance to chase down the little kitten. “Well, it was nice meeting you, whoever you are. But I’m running a tight schedule.. Thanks for finding my cat though!” She says with a wink and a smile before running after the tiny feline, in a safe speed of 12 miles per hour.

Ok so that was a little odd....Silted pupils? Normal people Didn't have silted cat like pupils....And normal people defiantly didn't take off running like that!! That damn cat was causing a whole lot of problems....Maybe he should let the cute bugger go....Let...it live its life...alone...on the streets...being chased by a creepy cat lady.....Who may or may not plan on eating the poor thing for dinner (Her being esperian and all).

"YOU WILL NOT EAT MY POUR LITTLE SPITZ!!!!!!!!!!" It was a primal howl of rage and anger...and the few by passers looked at him like he was a mad man....and well he was!!! He was a mad man who had fallen madly in love with a pair of soft blue eyes, and a fuzzy white face...and the cutest set of whiskers this side of the Reo Grand!!(Thats a river lol)

No...No!!! He would not leave him to that...that woman's tender ministrations!!! So like so many men before him, he put his life on the line for love and happiness!! He was willing to die and kill for that littler bugger.....Well mostly kill but that was semantics and he didn't need to concern him self with things of that nature....He was off on the hunt, right on the heels of the woman who had chased his dear little kitty away!!

Saddly....She had far out distanced him by this point...and he honestly had no idea on where to go...but he had something she didn't and that was an extraordinary sense of smell/taste so he stuck his tong into the wind...and waited for a familiar scent to pass him by...He stood there like an idiot for maybe thirty seconds before he caught a whiff of the female from earlier and broke out into a grin...THE HUNT WAS ON!!! He had his prey.....And he would not loose them....And soon his dear dear kitty would be back in his arms again!

He moved off after the scent, but try as he might he could not gain on her...she moved devilishly quickly....Inhumanly quickly....But speed mattered for little in a hunt like this, this was about endurance, stamina and power....speed would only save her for so long....And no matter how long that was it wouldn't be enough!

The soles of her brand new kicks hit the pavement in a steady pattern, and her strides were, as a marathon runner would say to be, perfect. And indeed, this was a race. Poco was the trophy. And Blanca would see to it that she got first place.

“YOU WILL NOT EAT MY POOR LITTLE SPRITZ!!”

Oh she could definitely hear him, not far behind her in fact. She grinned maliciously as she was able to understand his remark. “WAS THAT SUPPOSED TO BE SOME RACIAL COMMENT, YOU SMALL-MINDED ASSHOLE?!” She hollers back at him in Cretan. Bet he didn’t see that one coming. She turned her attention to the tiny kitten, who unknown to her was dashing forward out of its’ own amusement. The tiny animal ran past a fruit stall up ahead, and seeing this gave Blanca a purr-fect idea.

She dashes near the colorful assortment of fruit, shoving some behind her. A few manage to land on the ground, and this naturally caused the owner of the stall to jump in surprise. But Blanca was far far away by the time he was ready to call her out.

As a matter of fact, she really needed to pick up the pace, but doing so would be difficult, being that all these other normal humans surrounded her. Ah well, at least she managed to buy some time with the fruits. Hopefully that stranger would slip on one and fall flat on his ass! The thought made Blanca chuckle to herself.

She was nearing the kitten, and with one tender scoop, Poco was back in her arms. She stopped in her tracks and held the little fuzz-ball up to eye-level, glaring at her for a brief moment before her bright blue eyes began to melt her heart like butter. “Oh, I can’t stay mad at you. You are a cuute little kitty! Who’se my baby? Who’se my baby?! You are~” She cooed, bringing the kitten close to her and nuzzling its’ cute pink nose. She cradled the baby animal in her arms before immediately resuming her run, for getting Poco back was only half the battle. Now she just needed to keep the little thing still, and to find a way to lose this crazy man running after her.
