Soon, it came the day when Brownie had to say goodbye to the nice men at the Task Force 141's submarine. Shepherd had laid down strict instructions that she was to be left on dry land the moment the submarine was docked again. After happily jumping off the sub, the little kitten turned towards the people that had taken care of her for the past few days, with a piece of brownie in her mouth.

"Bye-bye, Brownie!" Roach waved to her, while the others did more or less the same.

Heh, finally, a chance to get away from that bunch of idiots, Brownie thought. Really, she could not understand why in the world those humans could be so strangely lacking in apparent sanity. They had a captain that was with a female that was named after a dragon (whatever that thing is), and they would not allow anyone else to know that they were always mating when no one else was looking; an old geezer which demands that she sleeps on a floor and the scary human that always wore a mask that featured a skull (was he not afraid that dogs might chase him thinking that he's got bones for them?). And oh yes, the moron that named him could not jump even if his life depended on it (if what the other humans said was true, that is)…

Hence, offering a happy "meow" to them, she quickly went her way, into the big city with a rather leisurely gait that only a happy kitten could create.

"Hey, look what we have here," said a human when she stopped under a tree to eat her brownie. Just as soon as he said that, two other men came along, and just like those crazy humans on the submarine, they carried all sorts of sticks of various lengths. Hmmm, I wonder what are they for? She mused, and decided to continue eating.

"Why, isn't it the most adorable thing you've ever seen?" asked another human male. This specimen was rather strange, as he had different colored eyes. One was green, and the other was blue. How very peculiar indeed. Anyways, it was evident that he would be the leader of the other two and there was something about him that she could never quite put her little paws on… He seemed like the kind of being that would just inflict pain on unsuspecting victims without any notice. Just her kind of human!

Knowing what she had to do, Brownie tipped her head to the side and meowed, causing the men to go "Awww," like those idiots that she had left not too long ago. Heh heh heh, finally, some worthy company, she thought, and brushed the leader's ankles with her head and tiny little neck. They were bound to take her home with them, she just knew it.
