Rana hissed at the mention of a hose, then sighed. It would be difficult to convince his future mate. "Yes, you would miss them, mau, but I am not delusional, mau." He knew only one way to prove this. His golden eyes falshed and black hair covered his body. Soon, a dark panther was staring up at Annon. "Mau?" The sound the cat made was hysterically similar to the way Rana spoke.
Nadira sighed. "I think you're going to need to read the zercan biology text."

Annon’s eyes widened in panic. A dark panther stood before him. His body was frozen in terror as he stared at it wide eyes. As far as his knowledge stemmed, panthers were dangerous creatures. Dangerous creatures that, were not unknown to attack humans. He wanted to back away, only could not due to his earlier bouts of backing away.
Even more disconcerting was the sound coming from the black cat. It sounded remarkably like that of the stranger, Rana as he was called, that had kidnapped him. “ Stay away from me…” Annon whispered in desperation, silent unnoticed tears of fear falling down his face. “Please…”

"Mau? Mau?" The feline purred, his fur poofing a bit as Rana's hair had earlier. He shifted back into his human form, gently gathering Annon into his arms. "I'm sorry, mau. My poor little kitling, mau. I didn't mean to scare you, mau. I would never hurt you, now. I'm a nice kitty, mau. You can even pet the nice kitty, mau." He stroked the boy's hair to calm him, inhaling his scent.

Annon tensed before simply giving in and slumping in defeat. “I have officially begun to halucinate. Crazy people turning into cats. Claiming to want to marry me. Kidnapping me. Embracing me. Asking me to PET THEM?...”
Annon buried his face in his hands. “What am I going to do?!” Waves of confusion and uncertaintly rolled through him. His resonsibiliteis and sence of duty fighting with his desire to just give in to the unexplainable, go with the flow and run off with this dream creature to an imaginary world where what he wanted actually meant something. A place where he could be who he was, and choose to do what he wanted with his life. Damn Rana for promising him such sweet things and then showing him the impossible!

"I will take care of you, mau." he promised. "I will love you and take care of you forever and ever." He kissed the boy's neck softly. He made gentle purring noises to soothe the boy as he sat down, holding Annon in his lap. "Come with me, mau. We will be happy, mau. And if you aren't, mau, we could come back here, mau."

Annon buried his face in his hands, dark hair slipping into his face. A sea of confusion burned within him. For all his training in diplomacy, he was left utterly speechless. He had no idea how to deal with this. He had no idea how to even begin to process the strange impossible seeming events that seemed to have taken charge of his life, let alone the concept that he might be able to make a ‘choice’? That was as foreign to him as space creatures and mates and kits. He had given up on trying to choose anything a long time ago, having given himself up to following what was expected of him as an ambassadors son, hiding the flaws that did not measure up. Brief moments of rebellion were known to him, but as mentioned they were brief taken over by duty and responsibility.

"Come, mau. We're going to leave. And if you awren't happy where we're going, mau, you can come back. I'll bring you, mau." He kissed Annon softly, nodding over at Nadira on the screen. She nodded, setting off towards Zerca. Mau cuddled his new-found mate, purring with pleasure. "I will make you happy, mau," he told him gently. "You'll be able to bask and purr all day, if you want, mau."

Annon jerked in surprise at the familiarity, Rana was using when interacting with him. He tensed, the familiarity unwanted for several reasons. Firstly, his mother had died when he had been rather young and his father was not much for affection. He had been brought up to do and be what was expected of him, in a very military manner. He was uncertain of what was expected of him in such situations, unable to relate to it. Unable to know what an appropriate reaction would be.
Secondly, such unfamiliarity with someone you had just met was unheard of in the society he came from. Referring to one another by first NAME was already being too familiar under the circumstances, let alone the rest of the liberties Rana had taken. He narrowed his eyes, responding stiffly. "I would appreciate it if you refrained from being so familiar with me. Please." His voice was soft, echoing his uncertainty and discomfort. He had yet to realise what was going on...

"Mau, mau, mau," he muttered. "There'll be plenty of time to get to know each other and cuddle each other, mau. That is if my mothers don't crucify me, mau." He stroked Annon's hair a last time, looking reluctant to let him go. "Um, so I introduced myself, mau. Let's see.... My mothers and Nadira call me Mau, mau, so you can too if you want to.... I work here and there, mau, doing odd jobs, mau. Mostly shipping and deliveries, mau." He shrugged. "I'm a pilot, mau."

"Pilot?" Annon blinked in confusion, absently running his finger along the arch shaped object situated behind hi ear. "Odd jobs? Shipping? Deliveries?" He gave a slightly hysterical laugh before cutting it abruptly short. "I see." Annon was not really paying attention, in a silent panic. Nothing seemed or felt real. His mind was racing in an attempt to find a logical explanation for what seemed to be happening to him. There was none.
Annon abruptly got up, moving to leave, what seemed to be the cockpit of a ship. Running his hand along the cold wall, he stumbled, almost appearing drunk. The atmosphere suddenly seemed heavy. Oh how he wished he could find a means to deal with this. Everything around him was suddenly fading into a tunnel of darkness. Maybe he would wake up and find all of this was a dream. Maybe...

Rana fussed over his unconcious mate. He finally laid him out in his own bunk, purring and mauing over him. Nadira rolled her eyes.
Annon awoke to what sounded suspiciously like a cat-fight. He had been moved, while unconcious, aparently. He was in a room with windows and bringht light streaming in. Standing there was a woman with black hair and golden eyes standing in front of a cringing Mau. Another woman with hair that went from black to brown to gold to white at the very ends, was trying to soothe both of them. They were the ones making the feline sounds. Rana suddenly perked up, letting the gentler woman soothe the raging amazon, bouncing over to Annon. "How are you feeling, mau? I was so worried, mau..."

Annon’s eyes widened, half sitting up so he could back rapidly away, shuffling across the bed he was on. He swallowed nervously, shifting uncomfortably. Apparently it hadn’t been one long crazy dream, as he had hoped. He took several slow, deep breaths in order to calm himself and gather his wits.
His panic under control he turned his attention to the other two figures in the room. Upon seeing that they were two rather distinguished looking ladies he hastily scrambled out of the bed in order to give a low bow of respect, his shaggy hair slipping into his face. “Good day” He greeted softly, unsure of what was expected of him.

"Well at least he has manners," the dark haired woman growled, still glaring at Rana. The male zercan looked a bit hurt that his prospective mate had shied away from him.
The shorter woman was the one who seemed to most understand Annon. "Good day, youngling. I'm sorry if our kitten has scared you. I'm afraid he takes after his mother that way." She gave her mate an affectionate glare. "I'm Tara. My mate is Arizka. Now," she turned to her mate and their kitten, "if you two are going to fight, take it in the other room. There's no need to scare this poor kit more than he already is. Shame on you both." Rana hung his head.
"Can I stay, mau? Please, mau?"
"Oh no you don't." His mother grabbed him, dragging him out. Tara shook her head.
"Sit down, please. You've had a rough time."

Annon swallowed nervously. He shifted on his feet, watching Tara wearily; rather disappointed that everything had not simply been one crazy dream. He wished it had been. That way he would not be required to deal with something that was so foreign to him. True, he had not had much freedom in his own life but it had, over the years, become a comfortable norm for him.
Nervously running a finger behind his ear, he sank back down onto the bed, sitting on the edge like a cornered wild animal. He sighed heavily. “This is not some crazy dream, is it?” He asked a rhetorical question, not really expecting an answer as he continued. “I seem to have been kidnapped by a crazy cat person who claims I am to drop my entire life, leave everything I know behind, and become his ‘mate.’ And now, I seem to be confronted by a woman that can scare said crazy cat; which only serves to concern me more.” He turned blue eyes to the woman, challenging her to dispute what he had just stated.

"No, it's not a dream," she told him. "Although I do admit that I also wonder about our kit's sanity sometimes... He and Arizka are so alike." She smiled. "Don't worry. Ariz can be intimidating, but she's all hiss and no claws, most of the time. Mau isn't afraid of either of us, but he's our son. Didin't you obey your parents? Wasn't it worrisome when they were angry at you?" She frowned. "I'm sorry if he's rushed you. Mau is such an impulsive little thing. Again, his mother's influence." She sighed. "You are his mate, though. We know. We always know. We feel it inside. He should have been gentler in breaking it to you, though and he definately should not have kidnapped you. I am very sorry about that."
