Blink. Blink.
Ash, the big cat stared confusedly at its surroundings. It looked to the left, it looked to the right. It rotated it's butt with it's fluffy grey tail swaying as the big cat looked around.
This is a car?
The big cat titled its head cutely as it's ponder the reason why it was inside a car.
And it was not just a car.
Ash still vividly remembers this car. Of course, because this is Kevin's car.
A light bulb lite up on top of the big cat's head, as it remembers why it was in the car. The big cat sneaked out, wanting to take peek at Kevin's situation at the company.
The big cat was always worried, anxious even. The big cat even thought that it might die early because of stress.
It was really worried.
Everytime, Kevin come home, he was either dead tired or injured. The big cat even thought of just locking Kevin inside the house, so that he will never get hurt outside again.
Or even tie him up on the bed, so he won't think of harming himself again.
Those scars on his body keeps piling up, that Ash already on the process of getting bald from worries.
So, now, Ash was not just a big grey chinchilla cat anymore. Ash was now an undercover cat, under the mission of finding out what the freakish thing Kevin was doing at his company.
The big cat swiftly open the car door in a familiar manner and stealthy made its way towards the elevator.
Fortunately, an employee coincidentally came in, Ash rushed inside.
...
The man peak at the cat who just rush in. He was sure that this is their boss' cat. This cat was very popular, everyone knew that the boss of Valentine Corp was a cat slave.
'No wonder. If I have this kind of cat, even I will be enslave.'
Charmed by the big cat, the man crouched down and asked softly. "Are you going to visit the boss, cutie cat?"
"Meow~"
"Ohh~ what a cute cat? Did you even understand me? No matter. I will get you to the boss okay~ come here~"
The big cat casually evaded the man's clutches and quickly escape outside the elevator, when the cat saw it was being opened.
Ash was now annoyed, the big cat was irritated that it have to use the stairs instead.
Stairs will take longer, but it does not have a choice. The big cat refuse to ride the elevator again. So, it just decided to climb the stairs quickly.
It took Ash almost an hour to reach 26th floors from 10th floor. The Valentine Corp main building actually have a total of 30 floors.
The big cat gasped tiredly as it stared up the door out of the emergency stairs. It exhaled a mouthful of air before it proceed.
To Ash disappointment, when he reached the CEO's office it was empty. Gazing at the table filled with all sorts of confidential files and folder, and a closed thin laptop, but an empty chair.
A vein bulge in Ash head. But the big cat was covered with fur. So, even if someone where their to see, it was still not noticeable.
The big cat strode angrily towards the chair. Ash vowed to filled this chair fur!
...
A big grey cat rubbing itself in a comfy chair of the CEO, was the scene witnessed by Kevin's personal secretary.
She quickly took out her phone and took a series of picture.
Click. Click. Click.
This scene was so irresistible! No one was able to endure!
Click. Click.
The big cat ignore the secretary and continue shedding it's fur.
Then the big cat heard the secretary's sweet voice. Ash, somehow felt annoyed. This kind of woman surrounds Kevin everyday?
The grey cat stopped it's movement and turned to looked at the secretary. A beautiful woman with a great mature figure. Unconsciously, Ash gripped the fabric of the chair with its claws, deep and hard that a scratch mark appear on it.
"Aww~ cute. Ash right?" The secretary walked closer to the big cat, as she continued to talk. "Are you looking for your master? Then you must have missed each other."
The secretary reach out her hand wanting to pet the big cat. "Boss went up to the rooftop, you know. Come on, let me pet you."
Getting the information it wanted, the big cat quickly scratched the woman's hand. The big cat wanted to do it for a while now.
After doing the deed, Ash rush outside and directly run towards the stairs.
The big cat's irritation was gone. Pity Ash did not scratched that woman's face.
...
...
...
Once the big cat reached the top floor, Ash sense many people upstairs. It tilted its head with big question mark floating above over its head.
Then the grey cat proceeded and was shocked. It's silver eyes widen in horror. The big cat saw many men in black smelling kind of stinky and bloody. And they all have that woman's smell!
"...!!"
The big cat stealthy sneak behind the men in black that was blocking the entrance of the rooftop. Ash urgently hide under the covers the tall grass the moment it passed by the guards.
The rooftop of Valentine Corp building was a garden. But despite calling it a garden, almost half of the plants here are just ornamental. Like the grass Ash was hiding in.
It was currently winter but this grass still looks fresh and green.
But who cares about that right now. Ash looked around and the big cat observed as all the people around here all smells the same. The big cat squinted it's eyes and also saw that they all have empty eyes with pink smoke lingering in their iris.
This is...
The big cat can't help but feel frightened. The whole rooftop was now in that woman's control!
Knowing that, Ash immediately looked for Kevin's figure and the moment it's silver eyes locate him. All the fur on Ash body stood up.
Cold air attacked it's spine crawling all over the big cat's body.
Kevin was sitting at the edge of the building, calm and relax. Ash felt afraid, it's small heart beat like crazy.
No one knew better than Ash what Kevin's condition is.
Kevin was suffering insomnia and everytime he manage to sleep, he will be attacked by nightmares.
Adding the facts that he had been betrayed by the two people he deem important than his life.
He already lost his purpose...
Kevin was not afraid to die!
And right now, he was seeking death!
Ash trembled, wet marks stain it's face. The big cat can't accept it. It can't, because if Kevin were to die, the one losing was Ash too.
Ash can't lose Kevin.
...
From the big cat's position, it can't hear anything but it still have a very good eyes. And Ash clearly saw it, the woman proclaiming to be 'Ashley' just injected something inside Kevin's foolish brother.
And the moment that pinkish light was absorbed by that jerk, his eyes changed.
Thump. Thump. Thump.
The big cat's heart beat heavily under the covers of the ornamental grass.
Thump. Thump.
The big cat wanted to moved. This scene was very familiar, and whatever will happen, certainly will make Ash go crazy.
But it's can't. No matter how the big cat tried, it can't moved. Like Ash was shackled in place.
All it can do is watched.
Watched as Kevin's foolish brother walked closer and closer toward Kevin.
Watched as Kevin responded towards this foolish brother.
And witnessed how Kevin was pushed off by Adrianne to his death.
The big cat gasped hurriedly, it's chest was heaving up and down. It was trembling nonstop and it's silver eyes reflected whirlpool of chaotic emotions on verge of erupting.
And it did.
Burst of warm silvery aura shot from the big cat. It's eyes were already filled with madness and insanity exploding all at once.
Ash hidden grivience.
Ash secrets it always wanted to speak out, shout out loud in front of the crowd.
The thing it's always wanted to tell Kevin, but can't.
Ash helplessness and its own indignant situation.
Everything.
And the source of that was this woman.
...
...
...
Snow drop and was instantly dye red.
The ornamental garden at the rooftop of Valentine Corp, now turned into an after war scenic view.
Bodies piled up, as blood flowed painting the ground red. The cold breezed strong stench of rust and gun power.
And the winner of the onslaught, now sat on the same place Kevin was sitting before he fell.
A large chinchilla cat covered in blood and wounds. It's fluffy grey fur now turned rugged, briskly, and ugly. The big cat now looks like a street cat.
Bullet holes decorated it's battered body, and it looked down watching as many people gathered from down below.
Blood gushed out from its wounds and the big cat seems to be dying. However, Ash did not want to die like this.
Ash looked down once again, carving the person's appearance after he fell for his death. Then Ash closed it's eyes, and jumped from the building.
...
