Antosha hissed, keeping his head raised high. Mathew had run, but why? Like he said, the spirit had nothing to lose. Diane, are you OK? he asked, turning his newly feline eyes toward her. Julie laughed, watching the cat with delighted eyes. Don't forget your sister. she reminded him, motioning to Mayu and Mel. Antosha growled, he couldn't help it, there was more to the transformation then just taking the physical shape.
He smiled inside, an idea taking hold. Time for Melville to wake up. Antosha whined, nuzzling Mel gently with his head. When that didn't work he gently liked the boy's face, rubbing his head along Mel's side. Purring gently, letting his tail flick lazily. His amber eyes stared into Mel's as the boy seemed to be waking up, he kept purring and licking his face.

His eyelids finally began to flicker. His entire body was freezing and pale, his breathing so soft it was barely noticeable. He frowned as his eyes opened slowly, looking up and seeing Mayu above him, his breathing becoming heavier as he tried as hard as he could to stay conscious. For her. "Mayu?" he asked, taking her hand, "What happened?" he asked, trying to look around as much as he could as he felt the soft fur against him, the giant cat coming into his vision as he looked at Mayu, afraid. He couldn't protect her, not like this, though he'd die trying.

Antosha tried again, purring loudly. With a small meow he learned over and licked the side of Melville's face, trying to 'clean' him up. With every swipe of the tongue he gave energy to Mel, much more then Mayu would ever be able to spare. He wanted the boy to stay conscious. Then he picked up the look of fear, glancing at his lethal body, sheathing his claws carefully. Giving a look of innocence. Antosha leaned down and licked him again, trying to calm Melville.

She looked at him carefully, daring to walk forwards, though still kept slightly back. The last thing Melville would want was the be surrounded by people at this point, and he would probably direct his anger straight to her. Still, she breathed out a sigh of relief when she saw him beginning to wake. I'm fine... she told Antosha silently, smiling nervously. She'd been so afraid that she'd had her brother killed. And at that moment, he was her brother, he was family that she had come so close to loosing.
She laughed at Melville's terrified expression, walking beside Antosha and putting a hand softly on his head, scratching behind his ears like a kitten or a dog. His fur was so soft, and for some reason it felt comfortable. "Antosha, stop winding him up!" she told him with a wide grin.

Mayu laughed softly, moving beside Mel quickly. She gave him a small smile, and an understanding look. It wasn't easy to deal with Antosha sometimes, but this really topped it. She had watched everything, though her vision faded at times. Mathew left, but he would be back. If not tomorrow then the next day, or the next. Until someone destroyed him.

He pulled away, terrified of the giant cat that was leaning into him, before he heard Diane's words, looking into the cat's eyes and seeing the spark. He frowned, pulling himself back quickly and wiping his face furiously, "Jesus..." he said under his breath, though he was feeling much more energetic now.

Antosha shook his fur, letting a ripple go down his spine. Slowly he became smaller, stopping once he was the size of Luna. His fur was now a light tan, tabby cat styled. Better? he asked innocently. He began purring, rubbing his head on Mel's head. This was fun, plus, Mayu would never let Mel hurt him like this.

He looked at the smaller version of Antosha with a little confusion, torn between his instincts. It was Antosha underneath, he had to tell himself as he picked him up carefully and put him down far away from him. "Seriously, its creepy, change back." he told him. It was maddening - it was just a cute little kitten! It was hard for him to be angry at any animal.

Antosha meowed, looking at Mel in confusion. He flicked his tail, tranforming himself slowly. His tail started shortening, fur leaving his body, he began to grow larger until he was back to normal. "Better?" he asked, laughing. His eyes glowed for a second before transforming back to normal.

He looked at him slowly turning away, "Sort of." he said slowly, unwilling to admit that he was happy to see him back as a man, but the kitten creeped him out far too much. He pulled towards Mayu, seeing her hardly noticing as he asked, "Are you alright?" suddenly remembering how she had been hurt badly before him.

"Much better," Diane said softly, putting an arm around the newly transformed Antosha and running a hand through his hair. Anything to put her off the daunting truth. Mathew would be back, and there was no love holding him back.

Antosha laughed, shaking his hed softly. "That tickles!" he exclaimed, trying to pull away from her. Julie paused, gently 'tapping' Diane on the shoulder. She wanted to say something to the girl, but inthe end she decided it was the kind of thing to say alone. Julie sighed, disappearing quickly. "We should have a party!" Antosha stood up, struck a pose, and burst into more laughter. He was in a really good mood despite everyone almost dying.

Mayu looked at Mel and shivered, nodding her head. "Yeah.. Are you OK?" she asked curling up against his side. She remembered what Annie would always do; Smile, laugh, and ignore all the pain. That seemed like a really good idea at the moment. Mayu sighed, knowing she wouldn't be able to smile for awhile, if not just for the fact Melville had died. If only temporarily

She smiled at Antosha, not really wanting to ask iif he was ok simply because she knew that she'd wouldn't want to hear the answer. "I'm up for that!" she said, putting a giant bandaging smile onto the whole incident. "Maybe we should have some time to get ready...?" she said, looking at Mayu. She wanted to chance to talk to Mayu, but more importantly to get to be alone to speak to Julie.

Antosha snickered, looking at Mayu and Mel. "The lovers will need an hour or so... Then they'll need to get dressed." he laughed, moving quickly away from Melville. Just in case the boy would be angered by his next remark. He quickly rescited the spell for transformation; back into a kitten form. "Or maybe five minutes, I heard Mel is quick in bed." he laughed, turning back into a small kitten. Antosha, in kitten form, meowed. Acting completly harmless.
