His mother knocked on his door. "Tsing Lu, get up or you'll be late." she called through the door before shuffling off.
He moaned and turned over, scrunching his eyes shut. Morning had come, and he hated it. "Five minutes." he groaned, draping his hand over his eyes and drifting back to sleep.
"Tsing Lu! Get up!" his father hollered. He jumped a bit.
"I am!" he shouted, angry already. He shifted to get out of bed, but couldn't seem to move his legs. "Eh...?" He craned his neck to see what was wrong.

Hanyo shifted. Light was pouring in the window, drifting across his eyelids. He stretched, hearing voices. Where was he? At home? No...he'd had to take a shipment out...Earth? Yes, he was on earth....that boy....Hanyo's eyes snapped open and he sat up, more like jumped up, hand's going to rub sleep from his eyes. Wait! Hands? Fingers? Hanyo yelped and jumped away, towards the wall, the window. Oh Zerca help him he had turned, he was human, he was.... Hanyo looked down and let out another pained yelp. He was naked! He curled into a tight ball under the window, peeking out from behind his hands to watch the humans reaction. He had a feeling it wouldn't be good and he was almost sick with worry.

Tsing stared at the man that had been laying in his bed. With him. Naked. With him. He let out a scream, and threw his stuffed bear at the man. "What the fuck!?!?" He shoved himself against the wall, glaring at him. "Stalker! How the fuck you get in Here?!?" He snatched his cell out from under his pillow. "Cops...that's it....call the cops!!!" He flipped it open, figners racing over the numbers, dialing.
His father pounded on the door. "Tsing Lu, what's all that racket?! You'd best be getting ready to leave! Tsing Lu, answer me!!"
He glared at his cellpone, noticing it was dead. He threw it at the man. "It's not my fault, go away dad! Call the police or somethin'! There's a naked guy in my room!"

Hanyo covered his ears, the screams hurting his sensitive hearing. He had to get out, run as far and as fast as he possibly could. He didn't know what police were but if his brother came looking for him he knew he would be in heaps of trouble. Standing, cheeks blazing red he threw himself at the window, scrabbling out of it. At the last second he looked back, a pained, sad smile on his face before he tumbled to the ground below. He landed, crouched and stared in horror at the busy street. There were bushes, they looked like bushes, surrounding the house and he dived in, breathing heavily, arms wrapping around his waist. Why did he hurt so bad? He slammed his palm against the side of the house and cursed, trying to concentrate to shift. It just wasn't working and he was shifting into panic mode.

His father finally burst in, just after the man had dove out the window. "What's going on??" he demanded.
"There was a guy, a naked guy in here!!!"
His father narrowed his eyes. "Enough. I won't have you misbehaiving. Get dressed and go to school. And this mess better be cleaned up before I come home tonight. Am I clear?"
"Tch." He looked away. "I'll get to it." he muttered.
"You'd better. Get dressed." He left the room, slamming the door.
He let out a frustraited growl. "Stupid father!" he threw his pillow at the door before getting up. He looked out the window. Not seeing a body or anything, he shut it. "I must be seeing things....maybe I should quit." he muttered, opening his closet and taking out a clean uniform.
He slowly got dressed, and looked in the mirror. He fingered his hair, thinking about that man. Wasn't he the same one from last night? Maybe...it had been too dark to really fully see his face with that street lamp having blown out and all. Either way, he was naked and in his bed for Chrissakes! Although..he was quite well endo---"Stop it!" he scolded himself. "Don't you dare start!" He huffed, turned on his heel and picked up his book case.
Making his way to the door, he kissed his mother's cheek. "I'm off."
"Take care. Don't worry...your father's just having a bad week."
He shrugged it off. "Whatever." He slid his shoes on and left the apartment.

He shivered, cold, still aching as he remembered the revulsion on the boys face. There was no reason he should feel this way, not one. Finally his body melted into a cat, a long, mournful cry escaping his mouth as he slipped from the bushes. Maybe it would best if he just left, went home and forgot that he ever stepped foot on Earth. But then the front door of the house open and golden eyes spotted the boy. He stopped short, paw in mid-air as he waited, unsure of what to do, where to go.

He stopped, and stared at the panther that stood in his path. He blinked a couple of times, and rubbed his eyes. He looked around hurridly, and even pinched his harm.
Tsing sighed and back tracked, opening the door to his home. "Mooooooom, I'm sick. I'm seeing things." he called out, shutting the door behind him and trudging up the stairs.
"Is that an excuse not to go to school?" his father asked.
"No, sir. I just saw a very large fucking cat outside. The size of a fucking house. I'm going back to bed."
"Don't swear in this house!" his father scolded, but didn't move from his seat in the kitchen.
"I know." He entered his room and shut his door, taking out his second cell phone from his pocket. He pressed a few buttons and held it to his ear.
"Hello?" a woman's voice answered on the other end.
"It's Tsing Lu."
"Ah, Good Morning. What troubles you this morning?"
"Cut out the seductive act, you perverted old hag. I'm sick. Can't make it. Seeing things. Inform everyone, Miss Manager." He cut her off and hung up, tossing it onto his desk before flopping onto his bed and burying his face in his pillow.

He was officially unfrozen and he took off, heading back to the park....wait! Where was the park? Hanyo circled. He couldn't tell left from right here, he hadn't had any sort of tour, how was he supposed to find his way back without Sefora's help? He couldn't very well turn human and flick the communicator on. He'd rather die than walk around naked, especially to be oogled at by humans, and he had a feeling some people wouldn't appreciate it. Slipping into a line of bushes he sat defeated on his haunches. Maybe he'd just stay here, right here until his brother came to find out why he hadn't returned. His stomach growled and he threw that plan out the window. But he couldn't very well wander around China, he was too big. The boys reaction proved that there were no larger cat species here. Oh well, he'd have to take the chance.
Darting out of the bushes he made a mad dash down the street, sending people skittering for cover. He saw a stand of green ahead and his heart leapt when he spotted the line of trees. He could hear shouts and moved faster, slinking into the line of trees before shifting, pushing himself to his feet. The ship had some sort of cloaking device and he made a mental note to thank Sefora later, although the boy was a nuisance. He popped up on screen as soon as Hanyo stepped inside the ship, looking completely ruthless. "What happened to your clothes. You didn't transform did you? Please tell me no one saw you...."
"About a million people," Hanyo growled, pulling on a pair of pants. He stalked to his room and pulled out a black button up shirt. "Any news from a cargo ship? I want to get out of here as soon as possible." Sefora sighed and seemed to think.
"Well, good news, there's one headed this way. Bad news, it'll be two days before it reaches Earth." Hanyo smacked his fist against a wall, wincing at the pain that rushed through his fist.
"What the Hell am I going to do for two days?!" The computer grinned maliciously and Hanyo had a vague idea exactly what Sefora was thinking. Surprisingly, despite his embarassment and reluctance to face him again, Hanyo desperately wanted to see the boy, even if he spit in his face like he had done the night before.

Morning had come and gone, and by the afternoon, Tsing was bored out of his mind. He hadn't seen anything odd since this morning, and decided that he needed fresh air.
He got up, changed, and shoved his mp4 player, cell phone, and cigarettes in his pockets before opening the window. He slowly climbed down the tree. With his feet firmly on the ground, he began making his way down the sidewalk. "What to do..." he mumbled to himself. It was actually a nice day out...kind of made him want to...His eyes caught sight of the park. "Walk in the park?" he asked himself as if he had lost his mind. He shrugged and made his way towards the tree infested area. He wasn't sure why he wanted to walk in the park...he hated this park. It was too small...and always had old women hobbling around, scolding younger people about how old traditions were dying.
His feet touched the grass. 'Oh yeah...' he thought. 'I left with my slippers...I'll have to get new ones...' He shrugged it off and made his way to a bench a little ways off. Sitting down, he put his earphones in, turning on his mp4 player. He watched the video on the screen, the singer bouncing about as he sung.

Hanyo stepped into the grass outside of the ship, his bare feet kissing the soft green strands. Sighing he stretched, arms raised above his head, reveling in the sun that was coming down, warming his bare back. All morning cooped up in the cargo ship and he still wasn't able to fix the engine. He'd just have to wait even though he was going to be tortured. He wanted to see the boy but he kept picturing the revulsion on his face, kept hearing the stupid words that poured out of his mouth. He couldn't afford to be distracted, especially since his father was getting ready to turn over the company. "Sefora, i'm going to go find something to eat...."
His screen popped up and Hanyo pulled on a shirt," Put the cloak back on this thing. What kind of money do they use here? Get me some real quick." The computer complied, wiring funds to him. Hanyo took some of the strange looking money, stuffing it into his pocket. He had no idea how much was there and really he couldn't care less. He was hungry, starving practically, and he just wanted to find something. Leaving Sefora to his devices Hanyo tracked out of the forest, only realizing he was shoeless half way across the park. "Damn it," he kicked at a clump of grass and turned, stopping short when he caught sight of a figure on the bench.
It was him, the boy that kept plaguing him. Deep crimson blossomed on his cheeks and he searched for a place to hide. Didn't he promise himself he'd stay away?

Tsing seemed to be completely in his own world, nothing around him mattered as he softly sung along with the person on the screen. Sure, he didn't really care for music...honest. He was just bored. Yeah...bored.
He shifted in his seat and switched songs, this one had no video, so he slouched, resting the back of his head against the bench, closing his eyes. It was a nice, slow song, one that he could relax too. It was strange, he didn't really want to relax...but he did it anyway..."Ugh." he muttered. That stupid ass from last night was still bugging him!! he shuddered, wondering if that guy would come around again. He certainly creeped him out. Sure, he kicked his ass...but only because he delivered such a low blow. He almost felt sorry for doing it. Almost.

"Uh....." Hanyo flicked his eyes to the sky, glaring. "What the Hell did I ever do to deserve this, huh?" He wanted to leave, but he didn't want to leave. It was the strangest feeling and he wasn't sure what to do. 'When did I ever not know what I wanted?!' He slipped a hand in his pocket and tried to slink past, black eyes watching the boy, unfocused as to where he was going. He tripped, landing hard on his butt. there was a sign in the middle of the grass. What the hell was a sign doing there? Growling he tore the wood from the grass and tossed it, not caring where it landed. Instead he reached down, pulling up his pant leg to look at the red skin of his calf. Yes, if he was going to get into pain everytime he saw the kid, it was best to steer clear. Two days, just two days and he would be going home. The thought almost put a pang of grief in his heart, almost. He wasn't exactly sure what it was.

"FUCK!" he cried, dropping his device and rubbing the back of his head as the...what the hell did that sign say?? something about...feet...and...grass...why the hell did he care!?!?! He ripped the earpieces out of his ears and spin around, ready to yell at whoever three it at him. His breath caught in his throat when he saw the man sitting on the grass, rubbing his leg.
He shook his head to clear off any unwanted thaughts. "What the hell was that for?!?!" he demanded, jumping over the back of the bench and storming over to him.

Hanyo looked up suddenly, eyes flashing to gold momentarily at the perplexed look on the boys face.
"Uh....." he laughed nervously and pushed himself to his feet. He was in no mood to get into another fight, especially seeing as how the boy had rendered him motionless last time.
"Listen, I didn't mean it. Just leave me alone, no more fights alright? Truce, I quit, screw food, i'll just leave you alone." He turned to go, hoping the boy wouldn't taunt him anymore. Yes, he would just sleep for two days, that would be fun wouldn't it? 'Who am I kidding?!?!' His shoulders slumped in defeat and he turned to look back over his shoulder. "You wouldn't happen to know anywhere to get something quick to eat would you? If not, i'll just look for myself, no worries." God was he tired.

He raised his thin eyebrow. The guy just pegged him in the head, rambled about a bunch of stuff that made absolutely no sense, what-so-ever, and asked him about where to get food???
"Are you completely insane, or just mildy retarded?!"
