C26: Lia's First Kiss

In the upstairs of a small cottage that was lying there for decades, a cat and a female human sat flat on their chests in an enormous bed. "Hmm… Ok, Crowley, I'm gonna do it." The girl said and stared down at her phone, slightly nervous.

[Hi…] Was typed on the keyboard, but not sent yet.

She didn't know what to say at first, but what the hell! She had to do something quickly or she'd miss her chance! This was… her moment.

Hi, Jamie.

She sent the text to Jamie and waited.

Seconds passed, and it felt like hours. 'Umm… he isn't replying? Wait – should I mention who I am? Didn't he save my number? Didn –' her eyes flickered and her heartbeat stopped for a moment. 'I haven't even been this afraid of a Demon… and why am I just afraid of this – text?'

[Typing….]

[Hey, Claire.]

Claire felt like all her worries washed away, and her eyes sparkled. Even Crowley was amazed by her sudden change of expression because he knew that his mommy was not someone who changed this fast.

The cat hopped a little closer to her, fluttering his tail around and rubbing himself against his mommy's shoulder.

[Hey… did you finish work?] Sent by you.

[Um, not quite. I'm taking a little break here, with my partner.]

[With your partner?] Claire hesitated for a moment. [Female partner?]

[No, no… he's a cat. Lol.]

[Umm… that was a stupid question, Jamie. Haha!] Claire texted back as her pale cheeks slowly reddened. Crowley did not even slightly like this change of expression on her face. 'Is that Leila making my Mommy mad again?'

[So, when will you finish the quest?]

[Almost done.] Jamie replied.

[Hmm… maybe drop by at Dinner today?]

[Thank you, Claire. If I can make it back around night, surely I will join you guys!]

[Good, good!]

[Umm, by the way – what are you doing tomorrow? O-O]

[Nothing planned out yet, maybe let's talk about it overnight? Or… tomorrow?]

[Oh yeah! Nice idea! You can join us for coffee tomorrow too!]

[Thank you, again lol.]

[No worries!]

Suddenly, Jamie went offline.

On the other side of the chat: The Sewers.

"Holy fuck!" Jamie cried out, ducking and rolling away from the magical field.

The cat too rolled away after this happened, and looked at the magical force field that had a hole in it now. "Fuck ~" he uttered and saw that only an arm of a rat had broken through it. Its nails were glowing, and Andy already figured out the reason for the monster being able to break through.

He sighed and looked at his chat again, and saw his wife typing.

[Hon, 5 mins are over! Because a bastard rat had broken through the field…]

[Oh fuck. Fuck that rat for me, dear. I'll punish you for leaving me hanging like this when you get back home though.]

[yes, of course, dear! Punish me as hard as you can! Bye dear.]

The cat pushed back the phone into his pockets and gazed at the rat.

Jamie already identified the reason for this rat breaking through. It was different from the others. It was on a higher level, and the rat was wearing a half-torn hoodie. It was obvious that he had overgrown to tear it apart like that, and it was [Level 20].

"An exception," Jamie said. "What do you think about this loser here, Andy?"

"The rest of them were just rats – not animagi. The woodland rats didn't obviously have so many members – and this was one real member, probably not strong enough to take the mutation potion," replied Andy.

Jamie narrowed his eyes and said, "We're getting closer – huh?"

"Yep, we're close." Andy raised his hand and the magical veil started to slowly disappear. "Haha – take this –!"

Before the cat could move, Jamie raised his hand, directed his hand towards the rats, and focused his mana on his hand. 'Mana push.'

A large amount of energy blasted from the palm of his hand and all the rats in front of them blasted away with such a high pressure that Andy had never seen a mana push release. Jamie raised his sword and stepped out of the veil and smiled at the rats lying down on the ground. "Hehe, ~ BOOM!"

All the rats were stunned that they couldn't even get up. Andy set his foot towards Jamie and looked up at him. "Incredible for a mere human," he said, amazed.

"You don't know the fuck that's going on mate. As I said, I have secrets."

////

The princess stepped down the stairs fast, pissed like she never was before.

"Fucking hurry! Will you, you useless knights?!" She screamed as she hurried straight down to the entrance of the secret passage.

As she stepped down, the roots that were growing across the stairs crawled backward. It was the power of her bloodline. The secrets of Downwood. Whoever sits on this throne, even the trees of the Downwood kingdom obey.

Her parents were too old to face this off like true warriors, so she knew that this had to be done on her own. Not like that mattered to her though, because she was one of the greatest warriors in the castle already. "Summon Soul Spear," she said, and a soul spear was summoned within her grasp.

The Downwood Guard was following her down the stairs, not able to keep up with the princess and feeling uncomfortable upon seeing the princess in her tight underwear that was hardly covering her plump lower cheeks.

Nonetheless, they followed their princess.

Finally, they reached the entrance to the secret underground passage. All the torches had burnt out and there was only utter darkness in the passageway. "Knights! Lights!" she yelled.

Two magic knights rushed forth and they raised their hands and chanted a spell and cast a bright white spark for her to see.

The brightness was clear enough for them to see a good distance forward.

As the princess walked forward with her knights, she gazed around the passage. On the stone walls, there were written memories of her childhood with Lia. As her footsteps echoed through the passage, the pace took her 5 years back.

**5 years ago…**

"Moeee!! What are you trying to show me, Princess –" the little cat-eared girl cried out as she was being pulled deeper into the passageway with her eyes closed with the princess's very hands.

"Stop screaming like a cutie for a moment you cutie." The princess giggled as she kept her little kitty's eyes closed.

"Hmph ~" the animagi pouted.

Finally, the princess reached the place she wanted to show her 'Future Love.'

"We're here… my kitten," she said, kissing the animagi's cheeks. Lia flushed right away, and her legs squeezed tightly.

"Please, princess… a high-class lady like you shouldn't be kissing the maiden's daughter –" Lia's eyes suddenly were uncovered, and her eyes glittered, seeing the view in front of her eyes.

Before her, was a drawing of two people, one girl with cat ears and another girl with a crown on her head. However, the difference in this art was that the tongues of the two girls were dangling like worms, almost like they were battling with their tongues. Lia knew that this awful-looking art was Princess Hilde's art already, but –

Her tiny mind imagined her and the princess in the exact same position. Her face went red, whole. "Agh ~ Ahh – why are their tongues touching, Princess ~"

"Shush." The princess kept her finger on little Lia's face and shushed her.

"This… is a tongue kiss, Lia. I found out from the internet that it's hotter than normal ones and it's mostly done with your ~ Your loved ones!" she cried out, happy as she could be.

"B – Bu – but!? How – you can't –" the princess leaned closer to the little animagi's face and kissed her, and soon, their tongues started to battle with each other.

Present-day:

"Fuck this… that art. Today, we have to be battling with our pussies here, and… fuck! These rats ruined my birthday and now this ~ every rat will die in this passage today!"
