Ryou jumped a bit as something somewhat heavy landed on his head. He blinked as he watched a Siamese cat tumble to the ground in front of him, but it was quickly on its feet again. He glanced upward. "Hmm....You must've fallen from the tree..." "Oh my! Quite lucky you were there to break my fall, good man. I thank you." the cat said, breathing a sigh of relief, and cleaning his ears. Ryou's eyes widened, and he shot backward. "Y-You talked!" The cat's eyes widened too, and it placed its paws over its mouth. "Oh, dear! I-I'm afraid you weren't supposed to hear that--err-I mean--Miaow!" Ryou just continued to stare at the animal. "Oh dear, oh my....You've really slipped up this time, Maxwell...." the cat muttered. He cleared his throat. "Ahem, umm--I don't suppose you would believe you are dreaming....?" Ryou blinked and rubbed his eyes, but the cat remained where it stood. He twitched a little before standing up, and turning to run. Sadly, he ran head-first into the trunk of the tree, and fell back. What luck, he'd managed to knock himself out cold. "Oh dear..." said the cat once more.

(Ryou's the one that got knocked out, right?)

Anna had been walking by when she saw Ryou on the ground. She hurried over and knelt by him. "What happened?" she muttered to no one in particular.

The cat, Maxwell, was still sitting near Ryou. It was as if he was waiting for him to wake, and make sure he was alright. He glanced at Anna, but said nothing. Ryou mumbled something that sounded like "kitty", but didn't wake up just yet.

Anna tilted her head to the side in confusion, then noticed the cat. Without really thinking, Anna reached out to pet its head.

"Uhh-err--Miaow!" Maxwell said. He didn't mean for anybody else to hear him speak, but he wasn't thinking clearly. Maybe Anna wouldn't notice. Ryou opened his eyes after a while. "Anna?"

"Ryou, you're awake! Look at this cute kitty. It's almost like he was waiting for you to wake up," Anna said, gently scratching the cat's head.

Ryou looked to the cat, then tried to squirm away. "Dahh! Get it away from me!" he said loudly, swatting at Maxwell a little. "Well, that's no good." the cat said very quietly under his breath. He masked it with a meow.

Anna hadn't noticed what the cat had said and looked at Ryou with a confused look. "What's wrong?" she asked.

"It's insane! It--It talks!" he said, pointing at the cat. "It spoke to me!" he said again.

Anna looked at the cat, then back at Ryou. "That's ridiculous!" she said. "How could a cat talk?"

"You're asking me? I don't know how, I just know that it did!" Ryou said. "Watch, I'll make it do it again..." He poked Maxwell in the chest. "Come on now...talk...." "Maow..." Maxwell 'said' flatly. Once Ryou removed his finger, the cal licked the area to clean it. "Hey....I said talk! Not meow!" Ryou ordered.

Anna gave Ryou an odd look. "Um...Ryou, I think you should go home now and...get some rest..."

"But, but--You've got to believe me! He talked!" Ryou said defensively. Maxwell seemed to sigh and back up a bit. "This is just perfect...." he mumbled. "There! Hear that? Did you?!"
