As I entered the whirlpool, everything looked normal. But when I arrived on land...

Oh, no. Wrong dimension. This place is overrun with humans. I instinctively said "meow" in order for the humans to not think of me as any extraordinary cat. But I had my pirate hat on.

I just remembered I was very hungry. I hadn't eaten in days. Because of my famine, I passed out. My last vision was a silhouette walking towards me and sticking its human arms to reach out for me.

When I woke up, I was surrounded by the sweet essence of chicken and a warm blanket. I gladly nibbled on the chicken. But then I realized something different. Two things, to be exact.
479Please respect copyright.PENANAypoAf4YHy3
Where's my pirate hat? Why am I wearing this stupid collar with a paw on it?
479Please respect copyright.PENANAQmg2M9gET8
As I was offered some water to drink, I stared at the human who rescued me.
479Please respect copyright.PENANAdFICpGTy8j
She was a young girl with cat ears, short, cute hair, a collar, and a dress that idols usually wear. This was so offensive to my species. Why is she wearing such bizarre clothing?
479Please respect copyright.PENANAmULvwsATQi
Another human, a younger one, probably her sister, came in the room. "Here you go, Blackwhiskers!" the younger girl said as she served me some more chicken.
479Please respect copyright.PENANAUESKQv2GBR
How did they know my name? Were they on to me?
479Please respect copyright.PENANAPqOLUxBQXO
"Hello, Blackwhiskers. Tell me your thoughts. C'mon, tell me," the older girl persuaded. I spoke, "Hello". I seemed like a coward to say something like that to a human.
479Please respect copyright.PENANA43jsT5cWhG
"Is Blackwhiskers your real name?" she asked.
479Please respect copyright.PENANAzzeWbA74aA
"Yes," I timidly answered.
479Please respect copyright.PENANAcwmAZesWlN
"My name is Moneko."
479Please respect copyright.PENANA5avO8LPeuY
"Oh. Nice to meet you, Moneko," I said as she shook my paw with her hand.
479Please respect copyright.PENANAFX1vxMExcL
"I am Neneko, Moneko's younger sister," the younger girl said as she introduced herself, taking a bow.
479Please respect copyright.PENANAhSTcP7vFqo
Suddenly, the temperature got colder. I was shivering, even when shielded with the warmth of my comfy blanket.
479Please respect copyright.PENANAHnoUcTB53J
The girl from my visions was there: she had that blank stare, sleek outfit, staff, wand...wait a minute...the frozen cat at the bottom. I pity him.
479Please respect copyright.PENANAE7uwB6hVCL
"Oh, hello there, Blackwhiskers," the woman said as she nuzzled me, which almost made me freeze to death. "I am Yuki." Yuki. Because it's the Japanese word for "snow", it seems fitting.
479Please respect copyright.PENANAkNrK6zRgZ6
"OK, girls. It was my mistake to go here. I need to get back to my family!" I worried as I tried to run outside.
479Please respect copyright.PENANAfMyxjIy0J7
"Wait! Let us help," Moneko pleaded. I rolled my eyes. "I don't think three young women should accompany me in such a dangerous voyage," I told Moneko.
479Please respect copyright.PENANAq5ZVFf1aNf
Moneko had was slightly angry. "We know everything about portals," Neneko said.
479Please respect copyright.PENANALKrB6nHiTF
After one informative lesson about portals, I finally knew what to do. "Thanks, girls," I courteously said to them.
479Please respect copyright.PENANAd63IgrSIAD
I prepared for my mission- to go back to my family. I packed my hat, my collar, a basket to put my food in, and my ship itself. I drifted from the land as fast as I could. I fell into the portal one more time, and this time, I found three mini-whirlpools.
479Please respect copyright.PENANA97kqOzW6EH
The left one had a sloth's face on it, which I firmly decided not to go to. The one in the middle had a dog's face on it. No. The right one had a cat's face on it. That's where I wanted to go.
479Please respect copyright.PENANAnAuvKK1yBk
As I steered my ship towards the right whirlpool, an radiant burst of light obscured my vision.
479Please respect copyright.PENANAs0MTKlDCp2
I was in the middle of the ocean. My nautical senses made me remember where my home was- Austria. After a tiresome trip, I nearly fainted when I reached the land.
479Please respect copyright.PENANApCGMX2kCY8
Yes. I was here. Austria. I ran to the place I lived, passing by cats playing jump rope and hoops. I knocked the door. I was excited to see my family again. When Martha opened the door, they were, too. Martha gave me a kiss on the lips and Michael hugged me lovingly. It was so nice to be back with my family.
479Please respect copyright.PENANAkctFlm2o7R
I told Martha and Michael about my crazy and interesting adventures. They smiled and laughed listening to my stories. I even told them about my new collar. I brought the food that the Neko sisters and Yuki gave me.
479Please respect copyright.PENANA3ZupTonhoY
I slept peacefully without any visions or peculiar dreams of any kind. I was done with all this.
479Please respect copyright.PENANAl5sYxQtSKY
The End.
