the life and times of a cat demon {information}a sasuke uchiha luv story

(the hat comes in later this chapter & she has Ezra’s eyes)

In the few weeks after that, I grew closer to both of my new friends and even made a couple more friends. But for some reason, the adults of the village gave me the same look that the people from my previous village had. It hurt me inside to see that people here were the same as they were in my old village, but I would never show that to my friends. So I kept a cheerful mask and smiled whenever I was with them

And Sasuke was still the only one who knew even part of my secret, but when I turned 7 that all changed.

I was sitting alone in my apartment. It was late afternoon and I was watching the people down in the streets. I chose to stay inside on my birthday for the very simple reason that it was the worst day of my life. It was the day that I was brought into this hell-world. That’s when Ezra spoke up.

El, I have a birthday present for you.

‘Really? What is it?’

Hold on, this might hurt.

“Wha-AHHHHHHH!!!!”

There was a sharp pain at the top of my head as two small nubs began to grow out of my scalp. Blood dripped down my hair and on to my face as the two nubs continued to grow. As they did, I noticed another pain at the side of my head. When I went to hold my ears in pain, I found that they had been sucked into my skull, leaving no trace behind. As I lifted my shaking hands up to the bumps that had stopped growing, I felt blood streaming out of the nubs.

By now, I had tears of pain streaming down my face that was also covered in drops and streams of blood. When I went to look in the mirror, I saw two small, black cat ears covered in blood sitting on top of my head. And as I lifted my hair away from the side of my face, I saw that my ears were gone.

Slowly, I stepped away from the mirror, wide-eyed and open-mouthed. “Wh-wh…WHAT DID YOU DO TO ME?!” I fell to the ground as I screamed.

Calm down, didn’t I say I had a gift for you? Those are my ears. Go on try them out. I think you’ll find that they are much better than your last pair.

“I liked my last pair, they made me normal! Now what am I going to tell my friends?!”

So wear a hat. And geez, you could have at least said thank you.

“For what?! Making me even more of a freak? Thank for that, Ezra, I really needed that!”

Suddenly, there was a knock at the door and a concerned voice called out to me, “El-chan, are you ok? I heard you scream?” I gasped, “Naruto-kun…uh, Y-yea, I’m fine...give me a second and I’ll let you in!”

‘Where is my freakin’ hat?!’ I growled as ran frantically around the apartment looking for a hoodie or a hat.

Did you try your closet; you seem to throw everything in there…

‘Don’t talk to me right now, you’re the reason I’m in this mess!’

After a minute or two, I had a hat hiding my ears from sight and I was smiling slightly at my blonde friend. He sent me a confused look, “El-chan, are you ok? I could have sworn I heard you screaming in here.” “I’m fine.” I faked a smile and as I spoke. “Wait, is that blood on your face?!” he stepped closer to look at my face, “What happened in here, Electra?!”

I sighed and looked down, “I suppose I should tell you…since there’s no other explanation for this.” “What are you…” I cut him off by lifting my hand up slowly and pulling off my hat. The last bit of blood dripped down to my face as I looked back at him.

He looked shocked at the top of my head as I flicked some blood off of each ear. “How did you…when did you…?” “I have a demon… she gave me her ears just now…that was what you heard.” “B-but how…?” I sighed again, “Listen can we not talk about this? I really don’t feel like it.” “Oh, ok…you want to go get some ramen?” I grinned and nodded, “Let me wash up first.”

At the ramen stand, the two of us happily slurped our ramen, blissfully unaware of the glares on us. The two of us were talking about ramen, when suddenly a boy of about 13 ran passed us. As he did, he snatched the hat off of my head, exposing my new ears to the world. When I noticed, Naruto and I turned to see people pointing and glaring. Some of them whispered things that only I could hear like, “She’s a demon child, too! I knew it!” “I bet she’s planning on destroying the village with the fox boy!” “Doesn’t she go to school with your son, Shiori?”

I turned back and glared down at my ramen, ‘this is your fault, you damn demon…’

Yes, but think of how much stronger you’ll be than all of them when I’m done with you. You will be able to crush them all.

‘Maybe I don’t want to crush them, maybe I just want to get along with these people!’

“I’m gunna go home, Naruto-kun, I lost my appetite.” I muttered, sliding off my stool and running passed the crowd back to my apartment.

As I ran, I felt even more glares on my back. There were men yelling at me to leave their children alone and to get the hell out of their village. One boy threw a stone at my head, causing me to fall and scrape my knees.

By the time I got back home, I was bloody and crying. I collapsed on the floor and held my head as I sobbed into my legs. “Wh-why does everyone have to hate me?!”
