Chapter 1
“Yugyeom, what is this?” Jinyoung asked, frowning at the kitten in his room, on his bed. “And why is it not in your own room?”
“Hyungie I need your help.” Yugyeom said, his eyes wide and afraid. “It was an accident, i didn’t mean to do it.” He said, his voice wavering slightly.
“Do what? Rescue a kitten? Buy a cat? I don’t think we’re ready for a pet, you’re right but I don’t think it’s anything you need to panic over?” Jinyoung replied, his eyebrows raised.
“No no no no no, you don’t understand! This isn’t just any cat Jinyoung, it’s Bambam!” He cried.
“Right.” Jinyoung deadpanned, rolling his eyes. “This is your latest prank huh? Well it’s not a very good one. You can tell Bambam to come out now.” He sighed, his hand raising and pinching the bridge of his nose.
“No Hyung, it’s not a prank! I’m serious!” He exclaimed. “We were in the practise room together and we’d made up a new dance move, which obviously we needed to name, so I was on this website that had some funky words just reading them out and I look up at Bam and suddenly he’s surrounded by smoke! And then when it finally clears this is what’s left.” He explained, holding up the tiny, black kitten. Said kitten was rubbing its head against Yugyeom’s hand seeking attention, and whining quietly.
“Okay, sure. Then you just need to go back to the website and say it again?” Jinyoung suggested, still not fully believing his boyfriend.
“I tried,” the younger whined, “but nothing was working and there’s thousands of spells on this site and I don’t want to accidentally turn anyone else into a Cat!”
“I still don’t believe you, but the library would probably be a good place to start looking into this.” Jinyoung suggested, knowing there was a weird section on the occult hidden at the back of a library across town. “But Yugyeom, I’m not wasting my free weekend researching this stuff for a dumb prank, you have to promise me this is real.” Jinyoung said, his face folding into a serious frown.
“Jinyoungie I promise. You think I’d willingly spend my free weekend in the library?” Yugyeom said, his eyes shining with honesty.
“Ugh alright. We need someone to look after him while we go out though.”
“We can just dump him in Jaebum’s room. He’s busy all weekend with writing our new song right? And he won’t notice an extra cat, he has like, a million.” Yugyeom shrugged, already pulling Jinyoung out of the room.
“He has three Gyeom. And don’t forget Bambam oh my gosh.” Jinyoung rolled his eyes, bending down to scoop up the discarded kitten, giving it a loving pet. “I’ve changed my mind. Lets just leave him like this,” he grinned, his eyes crinkling as the kitten curled in close to his chest.
“Hyung no! Lets go!” Yugyeom pulled him out of the room. The placed Bambam into Jaebum’s bedroom, making sure he got on with Nora at least before heading towards the library.

Everything was strange. For one, everything was suddenly much taller than Bambam remembered, and he was so easily distracted than he used to be.
He can’t believe Yugyeom had turned him into a cat. Stupid best friend. Now he was stuck in JB’s dumb room with his other dumb cats. He would probably spend his whole weekend stuck as a cat instead of doing the fun stuff he wanted to do.
He growled as Kunta approached him, not interested in the other cat at the moment. He was mad, and pouty and didn’t want to be stuck here.
Cut it out, Nora snapped at him. She was commanding and Bambam didn’t have the strength to argue.
He padded over to her, seeking comfort. They’d been friends even while he was a human, so maybe she would be kind. The older cat rolled her eyes, but obliged him, letting him curl into her side and start to nap.

Jaebum arrived home exhausted, shuffling through the sitting room and into his room. He fell down onto his bed and immediately fell asleep, clothes and all.
He woke a couple of hours later with a small black kitten on his chest. His brows furrowed as he realised it wasn’t his own cat, but a completely different kitten. This cat was too young to be Kunta.
He frowned down at Bambam in confusion, cocking his head to the side and sitting up to examine him. Bambam mewled at him, glad that his hyung had finally woken up. He jumped up, butting his small head against Jaebum’s outstretched hand.
“Hey little guy, where’d you come from?” Jaebum asked softly, petting his head gently.
Bambam mewled at him in response, purring happily.
“Jaebum! Can you believe what Yugyeom did to me! I’m a cat! Look what he did! Are you gonna go yell at him? It’s what he deserves.” Bambam cried, whining loudly against his hyungs chest.
“Shh, calm down little guy. I’ll find your home for you.” Jaebum assured Bambam, unable to understand his mewls and whines. “But how did you even get in here?” He mused to himself.
“I told you. It was Yugyeom. He and Jinyoung stashed me in here when they didn’t want to deal with me.” Bambam explained again, raising his head to look into Jaebum’s eyes.
Suddenly he was being put hastily on the bed, frowning as Jaebum made a hasty exit.
“I’ll figure out how to get you home kitty~” he said over his shoulder.
Bambam huffed in annoyance, dropping to lie dejectedly on the bed.
