@ Cerberusx : he is already a cat, he is choosing to stay a cat or go back to being human.
**********
"Are you ready to be a human again?"
"Yes...But that would be the easy way out. I have to see what my original life would've been like. I've been living a false life, a life that was created of magic. I'm not saying it was a bad thing, but I want to live the life I was born to live... I'm not going to totally leave my human family though, with the universal time differences visiting won't be hard." I took a deep breath, it felt like I had poured my heart out to the old man.
"A very wise choice young one, are you ready to depart?" He asked.
I sat my backpack down and slipped the ring off. "I have a question first, is there anything you can do to make me older? I don't understand why my cat body is so young, shouldn't I be a teenager since my human body is a teenager?"
"Let me explain, when you were changed into a human child it copied the same age as your original body. But when you change back to your original body it stays the same age it was when you left it. To put it simply, when you are a kitten your kitten body ages and your human body does not and vice versa."
"So, you're saying I have to grow up all over again?"
"Not entirely, physically yes, mentally you are already a mature young adult."
"I suppose you have a point there" I sighed. "Alright, go ahead and draw that diagram thingy. I'm ready to go back now."
"Sit down and you'll be on your way, I'm assuming you want to take your things with you?" he said, indicating to my backpack.
I took a seat next to my bag, "Sorry, is it a problem? I can always take it back home..."
"Of course not, not a problem at all." He meshed his hands together, "Prepare yourself."
"Wait, no diagram?" I asked looking up to him.
"I've long passed the need of those silly things." He closed his eyes, " I wish you the best of luck Andrew, or should say Shadow?" He began chanting softly, a smile on his face.
The blue force field appeared around me as he continued chanting. "Wait, I forgot to ask what your name was!" He kept chanting as if he hadn't heard me, the room slowly being filled with a bright light.
"Nathaniel"
Everything went white.
***********
I found myself lying face down in a pile of snow. I sat up checking my surroundings, I was in the front yard of Pete's House! I put the ring into my backpack, dragging the heavy thing through the snow to Pete's front door.
This was so easy to carry as a human, this cat body of mine can barely drag the darn thing. I finally managed to arrive at the front door, backpack in tow. I knocked on the door hoping that someone was home. It took a few seconds but the door slowly opened revealing Pete.
"Welcome back" He said calmly.
"Thanks I'm....wait you're not surprised I came back?"
"I knew the situation, I knew the possibility of you returning"
"What, how did you know?"
"I was informed."
I was going to ask who told him but I knew he probably wouldn't say a word about it. Was it the council Skylar had spoken of before?
Pete stepped aside and invited me in, taking in my backpack as well. I followed him to the living room where he sat my belongings next to my bed.
My bed is still here...did he know I was going to come back. Or did he keep it just in case of my return? We sat down on the couch, "Where's King?"
"He's doing some grocery shopping with Skylar."
"Oh..." I looked down at my feet, then back at Pete. "How long has it been since I've been gone?"
"Only a few days, I told him you were visiting family."
There was a moment of silence. "So...can I still stay with you? I'll still follow all the rules you made and-"
"Of course you can, you'll always have a home here. Besides, I you've been helping King ever since you've gotten here."
"What do you mean?" I asked.
Pete simply smiled.

Knock Knock Knock
Fido opened the door, "Hey Shadow, what's up?"
"Hi Fido, I was wondering If Sabrina was here; I need to talk to her."
"She's not here, I think she's home."
"Can you tell me where she lives?" I asked.
*************
This was it, I was going to tell her. I couldn't tell her the whole truth, I doubt she would beleive me but she had to know about this.
Knock Knock Knock
I waited anxiously, not knowing how well this would go. The door finally opened, Sabrina coming into view.
"Hi Sabrina..." I was getting nervous.
"Hello Shadow, what can I do for you?"
"I was wondering... if I could talk to you about something important."
"Okay, come inside where it's not so cold."
I followed her inside, taking a seat next to her on the couch.
"So what did you want to tell me?" she asked.
"I have...I need to tell you something. It's kind of complicated so bear with me OK?"
"Sure."
"Wow, where to start....Okay. I found out a few days ago that the family I've been living with my whole life wasn't my true family, I was adopted. The guy who found me as a kitten saved me from a blizzard and gave me to a loving couple. When I was told this I remembered what you had said, how I looked just like your brother. Well, I put two and two together...I am your brother Sabrina. I got lost one day and was saved and adopted, it's just like what you said. How your brother had just disappeared one day..." I stopped talking,I wasn't sure what else to say, I didn't have anything else to say. I looked up at Sabrina.
"Are you trying to pull some kind of cruel joke on me just because you look like my lost little brother? If you were really him you wouldn't still be a kitten." She stood up, "Please just go."
Crap, I hadn't thought about that. I guess I have to tell her everything.
************
Her eye's were glistening with sadness. It had taken awhile but I had finally explained the whole truth to her. She wrapped her arms around me and began to cry.
"I'm so sorry, it's all my fault that you got lost that day. I was suppose to watch you but you ran off and I couldn't find you" she said through her tears.
I hugged her back, forcing back my own tears. "It's alright, I'm just glad I'm here with you now."
"Me too..."
