TW!SLIGHT ANIMAL ABUSE!
YOU SWING YOUR LEGS SLIGHTLY ABOVE YOU AS YOU LAY ON YOUR BACK ON YOUR PLUSH BED.
mitsuri was hooting happily while eating a dead mouse in the corner, duck was walking over your face, obanai and kyojuro were each resting on either of your sides.
(totally didn't forget mitsuri was a thing before someone commented-)
your mint green eyes scan your room for something to do, kissing your teeth.
grabbing duck from your face, you slowly rise out of bed, careful not to wake your two kitties.
you couldn't do anything with hermione since her and her family had gone to see some family, and your siblings all happened to have playdates so you had nobody to do anything with. plus your parents had work.
you walk over, sitting at your vanity and peering out the window behind it, sticking your tongue out in slight concentration as your mind runs for ideas.
your only option seemed to be going for a walk. you shrug, deciding that was the best option. it was a nice day outside anyway so it'd be nice.
you open your cupboard, picking out your outfit which was a cute pink strawberry dress.
you grin softly, quickly dressing yourself and putting on some lip gloss before glancing over at your pets.
obanai and kyojuro were sleeping, having managed to start cuddling in their sleep, making you smile widely. you couldn't really bring mitsuri outside and duck seemed to be looking through your things for some more shiny items.
you shrug, making sure to leave your door open for them before grabbing your purse with a few dollars in it and heading out.
locking the door behind you, you look up slightly at the sun, using your hand to shield your eyes before walking off onto the concrete path.
you stroll down the streets casually, taking in your surroundings while, like usual, a warm smile was plastered on your face.
and just like usual, as you walked down the busy streets, many people waved and shouted your name, you grinning and waving back merrily.
you swing the door open of your favourite bakery, the ding of the small bell above the door notifying the owners of your entry.
the familiar face of kie kamado sticks out from the back and she beams, "oh, [name]! hell, dear. how have you been going?"
you smile happily, "i've been good! school's really fun and i have lots of friends!" you exclaim happily, kie smiles at your cheeriness.
"well that's amazing to hear. what would you like today?"
your stomach rumbles on que, your face flushes and kie chuckles.
you peer into the window which displayed the numerous yummy treats, puckering your lips as you survey your choices.
"hmm.. three of those, please... uhm.. two of those... and five sakura mochi please!"
kie smiles warmly, nods, and starts putting your treats into a brown paper bag, putting their shops sticker and a nice note before handing it to you.
you pass her the money and she winks slightly, "there's a few extras in there for you, sweetheart"
you beam widely, "thanks, miss kamado! have a lovely day!"
she waves and you wave back, skipping down the street.
you chew on one of your treats on the way, which was a custard tart. you hum in delight at the creamy, gooey custard.
but you pause as you hear some angry meowing and some kids laughing down the alley.
you frown, your heart telling you to go in.
you finish your treat hurriedly, securing your bag and hurrying down the slightly dark alley.
when you reached the end, you saw two teenage boys kicking something while laughing.
your frown deepens and you peer over to see what it is, gasping in shock and horror.
they were kicking two poor cats, one was big and defending the other, which was smaller.
you drop your bag of treats onto the ground, running over.
you step in front of the two cats.
"hey! what do you guys think you're doing!?" you shout at the two teenage boys who smirk.
"step out the way, princess. you don't wanna get hurt"
you frown, eyes narrowing as you stand in front of the two cats.
"i won't let you hurt these poor kitties anymore!"
the boys exchange a glance, laughing loudly.
"hah! what's a puny little girl like you gonna do?!"
you huff, one boy grins, "alright then"
he goes to swing, your eyes widen slightly but you dodge out of the way, delivering a swift, nice punch to the boys face.
blood spurts from his nose and he yelps in pain, falling to the ground.
the other boys looks bewildered and slightly scared, but tries to swing a punch at you as well.
you duck, kicking your leg and kicking his legs out from under him, making him stumble back.
the other one, who was still cradling his nose in pain, grabbed the other boy, dragging him away and running off.
you huff, "yeah! that's what i thought!"
you cross your arms, but your eyes widen and you spin around, crouching to face the two cats.
your eyebrows furrow in worry, scanning the two, "are you guys okay?"
one cat was small and had black fur with it fading mintish down the bottom.
the other was a large cat with milky eyes, most likely blind and a red bead necklace around it's neck.
you tilt your head and the smaller one does the same.
the bigger cat meows, looking up at you as though being able to see you.
you slowly stick your hand out and the cats sniff it before purring slightly.
you smile, "you guys don't have collars... do you wanna come home with me?" you ask, wincing slightly at the words.
how many more cats would your parents accept?
the bigger cat meows and you take that as a yes.
you grin, scooping the two cats up easily, the bigger one in your arms and the smaller one laying on your shoulder.
you babble to them all the way home, making sure to pick up your bag of treats on the way.
