AN: First of all, thank you so much for choosing my story! This is my first story NOT in play format so it's kinda odd probably and i'm sorry if it's confusing...^w^' I don't in any way/shape/form own Kuroshitsuji, but i DO own Nyx (the neko kitten) and reviews are ever-so-appreciated, especially if you have tips on what to do better! thanks!
Warning: some (probably a lot) OOC-ness for several characters, OC (neko [Nyx])


Sebastian Michaelis was meticulous topping his young master's afternoon snack with perfectly ripe, and sweet strawberries when he heard a disastrous CRASH! from outside. Sighing, he sets the berries aside, removes his apron, and slips into his overcoat as he goes to investigate the damage Finny has caused this time. He draws up short however, when he sees all three bumbling servants trying unsuccessfully to coax something out of a tree. as he walks closer to investigate, he sees a tiny young neko kitten cowering in its leafy sanctuary, trying to staunch a dripping cut on its arm.

"What is going on out here?" he demanded.

Finny answers first, "I was pruning the trees when this lil' guy swiped at me outta nowhere! startled me so bad, I tipped the ladder and it broke...Tee-hee!" he laughs and smiles awkwardly as Mey-Rin pipes in. "Bard and I heard the crash so we came to make sure he hadn't hurt himself again and we saw the little kitty hiding in the tree and we were trying to get it to come down!"

"Yeah, seems like it won't be coming down anytime soon, though..." Bard adds. Sebastian sighs at them before looking back up at the neko and striding smoothly toward it, murmuring soothingly at it the entire time, trying not to spook the already frightened creature.

~meanwhile~

Ciel sighs impatiently as he rings the servant's bell...AGAIN, alerting Sebastian to his impatience and irritation at having to wait so long for his afternoon snack. "You'd better have a damn good reason for ignoring me Sebastian..." He grumbles as he reluctantly starts searching for his uncharacteristically absent butler. Finally spotting him in the orchard, he storms over to demand answers. As he draws closer though, he stops dead, in no was expecting to see the immaculate demon climb a tree and gently grab a trembling creature, soothing it like a mother with her child."SEBASTIAN! GET DOWN HERE THIS INSTANT AND EXPLAIN YOURSELF!"

Sebastian's head snaps up at the irate tone in his master's voice. "Yes, Bocchan." he gracefully descends from the tree, his tiny charge now calm in his arms. He continues. "Finny broke a ladder; I heard the crash and came to investigate. Upon arriving, I saw these three trying to get her out of the tree." he gestures to the still bleeding creature in his hands.

Ciel leans in closer to get a better look but jumps back almost immediately as he sees inky black ears and a tail. "SEBASTIAN! That's a CAT! Get it away from me before I start snee-!"

Sebastian cuts him off. "Shh, Bocchan. You're scaring her." Sure enough, when Ciel looks at the young neko, he sees fear etched in her iridescent purple-blue eyes as she trembles. sebastian continues. "We need to get her inside and cared for; that cut on her arm is deep."

Ciel protests "But-! What about my allergies?!"

Sebastian turns to him. "She's a neko, which means part cat, part human. Furthermore, if you haven't sneezed yet, I doubt you will at all." Ciel sighs in defeat, knowing that his cat-fanatic butler will have a logical argument for any complaint he has.

"Fine, but at the first hint of a sniffle, she's gone."
