DISCLAIMER - I do not own Kingdom Hearts or Final Fantasy.

WARNING - STUFF.

RANT - Well, I'm sure all of my fans from the first Perfect Partners are about ready to kill me in multiple, horrifying ways... or, you know, forgot about me. But yes! I have at last begun the second story. Part Two of animal cuteness and clues to the mystery of the odd farm where they came from!

As per the last story, no. I have not changed anything. Still spread out the same way it is in the role play. Of course, I did edit out the typos and correctly spelled some shit. Which helps. :3

Enjoy.

All three of them sat at the table, surrounding a half eaten birthday cake. A young red head was licking frosting off his fingers, and giving a taller redhead [obviously his brother], a sort of lopsided grin. Today, the young one turned eight.

"Happy birthday Axel." Said the tall one, ruffling his littel brother's hair.

"Thanks Reno!" Axel grinned. "Presents?"

"Hold on, Ruffus has it." Reno looked over at the third occupent at the table, a blond holding what appeared to be a mewing box.

The little box had little claws poking out of the holes, scratching and crying to be let out. Ruffus chuckled, setting the little box in front of the tiny child. "Now remember... What's in this box takes responsibility. And it's a bit fragile..."

"Gimme gimme!" Axel bounced, reaching out for the box. "Its a kitty right? You got me a kitty?" he was very excited.

"Woah now.." Reno pat Axel's head. "It could be anything. It could be a turtle."

The box yowled and mewed pathetically. Oh yeah, it was totally a turtle.

"Give meee!" Axel whined at Ruffus. "Pleeassee?"

Reno laughed. "Okay, hand him the box. Its almost sad watching him whine."

Ruffus chuckled, letting the box go. The box began to shake as the creature inside scuttled around and scratched. The box itself was only perhaps 5 inches long both ways, no matter how you looked at it... so it was still a baby to be sure.

Axel took the box, eagerly taking off the bow holding it together. He peered inside, looking into the blue eyes of a baby kitten. "Oh wow..."

The kitty meowed at Axel, looking sad- as if to say 'Let me oooout!'. He was a yellow, fluffy thing- like a furball instead of a kitten. And its head seemed a size too big for its small body.

Axel took off the top, reaching inside to take out the kitten. The redhead carefully hugged the creature, smiling wide at the pair watching him. "She's pretty!"

"Its a he," Reno said.

"Oh, okay.." Axel looked down at the kitten, petting the top of his head softly. "... Im gonna call you... Roxas."

'Roxas', as he was now so called, was toppling over some as he was pet- instantly falling onto his side and back and grabbing Axel's hand... It might have hurt to have a cat start knawing on your fingers and attaching itself around your wrist, but this one's claws and teeth were underdeveloped still- so Axel wasn't hurt. The little thing would stop occasionally amidst its savage attack to stare up at Axel, then give what he was biting a few soothing licks, before chomping on him again.

"Maybe you should have called him jaws," Reno commented. But Axel was giggling.

"It tickles!" Axel laughed a little, moving Roxas away from his fingers to hug him properly.

Roxas mewled in surprise as he was picked up, his tiny claws attaching to Axel's top. He was looking around now, his big head turning every which way it could. He attempted to climb up to Axel's shoulder, arms extended out and claws digging into his shirt again just above Axel's collar-bone. "Yeaow!"

Axel let Roxas climb, wincing as those nails dug passed the thin cotton of his shirt and into his skin. "Owww... Roxas..."

Roxas, stumbling a bit still, finally made a firm footing on Axel's shoulder... now gently rubbing his head against the red-head's jaw-line, giving a tiny purr. He was still exploring, now attempting to see what was inside of Axel's shirt- trying to paw the collar open so he could get inside... and instead ended up toppling over, right into Axel's lap- looking horribly confused.

Ruffus laughed, turning to Reno. "Think it'll work out for the better?"

"I think so," Reno said, smiling a little.

Axel picked up Roxas, giving his little pink nose a kiss. "I love you Roxas."

Reno snaked an arm around Ruffus's waist, pulling him close. "So while he's distracted by a little fuzzy kitten..."

Ruffus gave Reno a flat look... but consented all the same, standing up without a word.

Roxas wriggled his nose, crossing his eyes to try and examine it. He ran his paws over his face a few times, one back leg extending to Axel's chest as the other stayed curled up beside him.

Axel giggled again, giving Roxas a hug. "Come on, lets go to my room..." the eight year old got up, heading for his bedroom. Reno, however, followed his blond lover into his their own bedroom, effectively locking the door.

Roxas mewed, clinging to Axel's shoulder again. He watched as his surroundings began to change and pass him by... making the little kitten dizzy. He hid his face away into the boy's nook to save his head some ache.

Axel reached his room, placing the baby cat on his mattress before carefully climbing in. He lay down, watching the kitten adjust to his new home.

Roxas opened his eyes again, looking around as he sat on his haunches. He turned to look at the only thing familiar, which was Axel- giving a kitty-like smile and walking (stumbling) his way over... giving a tiny mew.

Axel welcomed the kitten into his arms, snuggling the little creature. "You're so cute... I hope you like your new home."

Roxas made himself comfortable on the front of Axel's neck, just under his chin- curling up and hiding his face away into his legs... honestly looking like a fluffy ball instead of a cat. He purred gently, adjusting only slightly before looking sound asleep.

Axel gave his new pet a few more gentle strokes, then a kiss on top of his fury head. Closing his green eyes, the boy too fell asleep, with Roxas's little purrs as his lullaby.

Aww, ain' it cute?
