A long time go there was a small village. And in that village lived a young girl. The girl's name was Madeline. She was just an ordinary girl. She looked normal, acted normal, and seemed normal. The only thing that didn't seem normal to others was her intelligent. She read a lot of books, making her know things that some other people  don't.

That made the other girls in the village jealous of her. So they always would bully her. Or at least try to. When they always talk bad about her, she wouldn't care. She would always just roll her eyes and continue reading her book. When they try to pull pranks on her, Madeline would either go the other way or dodge it. That was another thing she had that was unusual, her car like reflexes (hehe get it?). One day when Madeline was walking around the village with some new books, one of the girls that bullied her came by and knocked the books out of her hands and into the ground.

She groaned and started to pick up the books when another reached out and picked up the last book. Madeline looked up and saw who was picking up her books. A boy who she knew was called Michael. He was also like her in a way. Just a normal person. He looks up and they make eye contact for a sec for before he shoves the book into her arms. His face had a small blush on it when Madeline looked at his face. Before she could say anything, he got up and walked away quickly. She just sighed and got up.

She kept walking to her destination when she felt eyes on her. She turned to the direction where she felt the eyes and saw a white cat. It's blue eyes staring straight at her soul. Madeline turned away and kept walking. 'What a weird cat' she thought. She kept walking before she got to her the place. A tree where her parents took her when she was younger and where she read her books. She sat at the spot where she usually read. After a few hours of reading she got up, stretched and started walking home. While she was walking, she noticed a glowing light coming from the woods near by.

The older folks always told her and the other young ones to stay away from the woods because it was dangerous. But that only sparked her curiosity even more. Oh well curiosity killed the cat (I need too stop). She walked towards the light as it got brighter. The light was glowing from a beautiful flower. She reaches out to touch it when a booming voice calls out.

"Who dare enters my forest?"

She jumps and turns around to see a young girl with a pointy hat and robe. "W-who are you?" She said. "Who am I?" The girl replied. "Who am I?! What kind of idiotic person would ask such a question?!" She exclaimed in a furious voice. "I am the forest witch. And you shouldn't be here" The young witch pointed a finger at Madeline.

'Her? A witch? No way! She's so young!' She thought. She begins to speak but the witch interrupts her.

"For coming into my forest, I shall put a curse on you."

'A curse?' She thought. 'She's joking, right?' Her thought were interrupted when the witch pulls out a potion and throws it at her. Startled, Madeline doesn't have time to react as the potion crashes into her and breaks. A blinding light surrounds her body as Madeline closes her eyes tightly to shield her eyes from the light. When the light leaves, she opens her eyes and everything seemed...different. Everything seemed smaller and the night seemed brighter. She tries to speak, but instead of words it was...meows?

Madeline looked at her body to see orange fur, a tail, and paws. She lets out a startled meow as her tail flares out in surprise. 'My body, what did that witch do?!' The witch answered her question when she said,

"You've been turned to a cat for looking through my forest. After all, curiosity killed the cat."

The witch turns to leave, but before she does, the witch says,

"If you want to return back to human, you must find someone that you love kiss you. You have 3 weeks. If you don't get kissed by the one you love, you stay as a cat forever."

The witch then left. Madeline stood there dumfounded as she tries to adjust to her new body. '3 weeks?! How on earth am I suppose to turn back in 3 weeks?!'

She hears a loud sound that makes her jump and her fur ruffles up in alarm. 'I need to go back to the village...' She thought as she walked towards the village. She goes through a random alley and keeps walking through. She takes a left and eventually reaches the tea shop meaning she's close to her home. As she's walking to her house, she pasts by the girls who would harass her. She hears them talking about some thing.

"I wonder what prank we should pull on Madeline next."
"We should dump water on her, that would be hilarious!"
"Maybe we should stop guys?" "Are you bailing out, Valerie?" "Hey guys, that cat's staring at us."

The girls look at Madeline as her eyes dilate abit.

"Aww, a kitty! Come here~"

One of the girls cooed at her as she reaches out to touch. Madeline backs away abit and growls, her tail flaring up. The girl reaches out more and Madeline lets out her claws and scratches the girls hand with a hiss. The girl winces and retracts her hand, clutching it.

"Ow! That cat scratched me! Stupid cat!"

The girl proceeds to kick her and Madeline gets hit, meowing in pain. The girls start to chase her and she starts to run.

One of the girls try to tell the others to stop, but the plea goes on deaf ears. Madeline takes a sharp turn to get them off her tail, but they were persistent. 'Dammit, they're starting to catch up. What am I going to do?!' She felt herself bump into something making her stop completely. She looks up and sees it's Michael. 'It's the boy from earlier!' The girls also stops and one of them speaks up,
"Can you give us that cat? We need to do something with it."

Michael stares at the group for a bit before he starts to reach for Madeline.

She tenses up and prepares to attack but stops as he gently picks her up in his arms. It felt...warm and comforting. She excepts him to give her to the girls but is surprised when he says,

"I know what your going to do and I won't let you do that. Now if you excuse me, I need to go home."

The girl starts to say something but was too far away to hear. She looks up at him and takes the time to look at him properly. His brown hair was messy and looked tangled. 'His hair is all messed up. I wonder what he was doing.' She thought. He suddenly looked down at her and gave her a small smile.

"Your okay now. You don't have to worry."

She felt her face become hot and a blush was growing on her face. 'Wait, can cats even blush?' She thought. Michael stopped in front of a house and pushed the door open. He walked in the house and and placed her on the floor before closing the door. The house was small but quaint, having a nice feel to it.

"Make yourself at home."

Michael said. Madeline walked around and meowed at Michael. He smiled and reaches down to pet her, causing her to purr.

"I bet your hungry right? I'll get you some food."

Michael walks away and goes to the kitchen. Madeline goes to a chair and curls up in it. 'You know, this isn't bad. I feel like being a cat would be nice. Maybe I should stay as one...'
