Meow Quest (PMMM Catgirl!Homura)

[TheBleachDoctor]

[x] Mewl happily. Give Pink Girl the biggest hug you can do.
It doesn't matter what happens next! Pink Girl is alive! Everyone is alive! Best Cat did it because Best Cat is Best! Everything is good and happy!

'Yaaay!' you mewl, cuddling up to Pink Girl and giving her the biggest hug your little kitty arms can give! She returns the hug with a smile, and you're warm and happy! Everything is great, and will continue to be great!

"Well, everyone," Mami turns to face the group, beaming, "Shall we go home?"

Pink Girl pets you, smiling, "Sure. Want to go home, Homura-chan?"

You trill and rub your cheek against her hand. Yeah, you do!
Home with Pink Girl!

---

You never saw Bunnycat ever again.
You don't know why, but maybe you did something to him? Maybe he's just scared of you? Regardless, it's been years, and if he never shows up to bother you and Pink Girl ever again it will be too soon.
The city was all smashed at the end of the fight with Upside Down Girl, but it eventually became all shiny and clean again. Pink Girl even showed you a few times when you left the house! You're glad it is normal again, but really you just care that Pink Girl is okay.

Yellow Girl recently said that there are a lot more Witches and the Magical Girls were disappearing, but you don't care about that! You just keep the Shiny Stones of everyone clean and give them cuddles! No Witch is more powerful than Upside Down Girl, so you'll be just fine! Nothing can beat you and your friends!

"Do you think I can make it into college with my grades, Homura-chan?" Madoka asks worriedly as she gives you ear scritchies, "Hitomi-chan is doing so much better than me... but at least I'm doing better than Sayaka-chan."

'Don't know,' you purr, your regal black fur getting stroked lovingly by Pink girl, 'Pet me.'

You went from a tiny kitty that could fit on Madoka's shoulder to a big black cat that could curl around an entire leg! That means there's more of you to pet! Pink Girl has certainly taken advantage of this, petting you to your heart's content.
Sometimes you wonder if things would have turned out different if Pink Girl wasn't a Magical Girl, or if Upside Down Girl hadn't been defeated, or if Bunnycat ever came back... but that's all secondary to your contentment in the here and now. Days spent bathing in the sun, cuddling with Pink Girl, eating fish, and playing with string. Things couldn't be any better!

There are still fights. There are still questions that never got answered. Pink Girl still worries about life and Witches. Love and relationships cause drama and angst. The world keeps on turning and problems keep appearing.
But it's not something that bothers you, because at the end of the day you're still there to cuddle up with Pink Girl and lick the darkness from her soul, basking in the love of your beloved Madoka. She feeds you and pets you, she is the perfect Human!
And for her, you'll be the perfect cat.
Because Witches may come, people may die, relationships fall apart, friends move away, and people change, but there is one thing that you know for sure.
One thing that you'll always, always hold true to!

You are Best Cat, and you love Pink Girl!

FIN

A/N:
Well, it was a long, fluffy soft soft road to here! Kind of inconsistent towards the end, but that's what happens when real life circumstances change. Hm. Now that I think about it, this is the first Quest of mine that I've actually finished. Like, actually finish as I intended to, and not something that I prematurely ended. It was fun for me, was it fun for you? I hope so.
Special thanks to everyone who stuck with me from beginning to end. For those of you who came in partway, I'm glad you came. This journey of a cat to save her pink-haired Human could not have possibly come to fruition without all of you.
I hope to see some of you in my other Quests, although I know that for some of you this was the only Quest of mine you've read, and will ever read. I'm glad that you followed me on at least some part of my journey. But this is the final stop of the SS Amura. All passengers, prepare to disembark.
But before you do, one little gift to the one reader I had who held true to their beliefs to the very last...

Spoiler: Hyp3rB14d3, this is for you.

[x] Pee
You've scouted all over the house, and after much deliberation... this is the spot you have determined to be the best for your intended task.
Cats all over the world will purr of your achievement for decades! Hold on, world, because this is it! Your masterpiece!

"Ah! Homura-chan, no!" Pink Girl shrieks, running over to you as you let loose, "Not on the DVD player!"

'I pee,' you mewl. Best Cat is Best.

 

[TheBleachDoctor]

I need some blackpurpleviolet and whitepinkgold horas

Click to shrink...

"I can't believe that little kitten did it," Homura Akuma sighed as she peered into what she called the "Amura" universe, "I have to go through hundreds of loops, and the feline solves it in one."

Madokami giggled as she slid in behind Homura Akuma, snuggling her devil girlfriend, "Well, Homura-chan, this version of you is a cat! Never underestimate them! First you think that all your possessions are safe and then suddenly they're peeing on your Sailor Moon Blu-Ray collection!"

Homura Akuma nodded with a smile, "Ah yes, our Amy. She was quite the fiendish little kitten."

Madokami nodded, "Of course, we both love her all the same. Now, we should congratulate this version of you on a successful save!"

Homura Akuma nodded, and the two of them poked their fingers into the Amura universe, Madokami chirping, "Nose boop!"

---

You lick your nose. Feels like someone booped it.
No nose boops. You do feel a sudden, inexplicable sense of accomplishment though!
You are Best Cat. Best Cat is best!

 

[TheBleachDoctor]

Your name is Amy Percival Venticus Akemi, but everyone calls you Homura for short. You are known to all as Best Cat, the fluffiest of the fluffy, the cuddliest of the cuddles!
Also you're a Magical Cat to put all other Magical Cats to shame.
You would say that you're the warmest of the warm, but sadly this isn't the case. It is cold today, and the cold white puffs are falling from the sky!
Pink Girl says that it's called "snow" but you doubt that. Best Cat instincts tell you it is white cold puff, so white cold puff it is.

It is similarly cold inside Pink Girl's home, a small apartment the two of you live in in a place called "Tokyo". She moved there a year ago to start her new job at a fashion company.
Pink Girl has been awfully sad to leave her friends behind, but they still talk to each other on the bright flashy screen, so you don't see what the issue is.
After all, she has you there to keep her company! And Best Cat is the best at that.

"Nya," you mewl to the empty house, looking up from your favorite corner of the couch. This is a place you dwell in often, with many small purple blankets and pillows marking it as your domain.

Oh, but yes! It is cold today. The heater is broken. Pink Girl Madoka apologized and wrapped you up in blankets before she left, but the blankets have since fallen on the floor from your movement, and you don't want to pick them up.
Not that you couldn't just turn into your big Human form and do it yourself, but you want Pink Girl to do it for you. But Pink Girl is not here.
Therefore, it is impossible.

You can't fix the heater, and you don't know how to turn on the fireplace. If Pink Girl doesn't come back home soon, you'll get too cold to play with her tonight!
Aha! You know. You'll find another way to warm yourself up! Not only will Best Cat be warm, but Pink Girl Madoka will praise you for your ingenuity, and give you additional treats tonight!
Treats that you cannot actually procure yourself because she put them in a large jar with something called a "childproof cap", whatever that means.

No matter, on to the issue of warming. How will you warm your little kitty body?

Pink Girl Madoka has a warm box in the kitchen that she uses to make her food hot. If you go inside, it will make you warm and hot. A flawless idea!
There's also the next door neighbor. Opening the balcony doors and hopping over would be a trivial matter, and their heater works!
Or... you could try to start a fire in the fireplace! Pink Girl Madoka has never used it, therefore it must be a complicated matter and too complex for her dumb Human brain. But you're a smart Best Cat. Obviously such a task is simple for you!

[] Enter the Warm Box. Become Warm.
[] Visit the Neighbor for her Heater.
[] Start a fire.

 

[TheBleachDoctor]

[X] Visit the Neighbor for her Heater.
You are cold. This is an unacceptable state for Best Cat. Best Cat must always be warm and fluffy soft soft.
If you are not, how could you possibly hope to be the Best Cat that Pink Girl Madoka needs you to be?

Now, you cannot become warm here. The blankets have long since cooled, and so has the rest of the apartment.
But the next-door neighbor does have a working heater! You've snuck over there a few times to get warm before. So to the neighbor's place it is, then!

You quickly transform and walk over to the balcony door, sliding it open and stepping outside. Brr, it's chilly out here too! With a pop, you turn back into small Best Cat and hop across to the other balcony.
Through the glass doors you can see the neighbor, a woman about the same age as Madoka sitting at her desk, shouting something.

Ah, she can't hear you when she's like this. You walk a little closer to her field of view and begin to bat at the glass doors, mewling plaintively.

It takes a minute, but she finally notices you and stands, quickly moving to crack open the door and closes it once you've slipped inside.

She only takes a second to pet you before moving back to her chair and staring at the light boxes. You still don't know what those do. Pink Girl Madoka tried to explain once, but it sounded like nonsense to your kitty brain.

"Ah, sorry about that, everyone!" she loudly speaks to the light boxes, "Kuro-san from next door wanted to use my kotatsu again! It's very, very chilly today!"

She talks to herself and the light boxes a lot. It's weird, but she has a kotatsu with a heater on it. You pad past her relatively empty apartment to the kotatsu, which is near her kitchen, and slip under it.
Ah, nice and warm.
You curl up beneath the soft glowing heater, the neighbor's shouting muffled by the kotatsu and... rest... a bit... you'll go home when you're warm...

• ₍⸍⸌̣ʷ̣̫⸍̣⸌₎

A loud, sudden bang rouses you from your kitty slumber. Who dares wake Best Cat?
There are loud stomps, and some shouting beyond the Kotatsu. You've almost gathered the courage to venture out and see what the fuss is, when the Kotatsu is suddenly lifted off the ground by a large man in a suit!

"Wait, no!" your neighbor wails as she's held back by another muscular man, "My kotatsu!"

"If you didn't want us to take it, you shoulda paid the boss on time," another big man sneers, before noticing you, "Now what do we got here?"

"Mew?" you inquire as he picks you up... and dumps you in a sack.

Oh no, you can't see! You paw at the bag, mewling as you hear from beyond the fabric, "If you wanna see your pet and your things ever again, you'll pay the boss what she's due!"

You're not involved in this! Best Cat is innocent of all cat crimes!
More confusion, and you're suddenly dumped onto a hard metal floor, and you hear car doors close, then the noise of a car engine!
Oh no, they're taking you somewhere!
You have to get out and return to the apartment or Pink Girl will worry!
Wait...

"Glad we kept the engine running," you hear them say as the warm car air begins to seep into the bag.

"Yeah, it's cold as hell outside," the other replies, and you're already halfway to dreamland.

Well... maybe you can return to the apartment... after you've rested... just a bit....
.....
Best Cat sleep now.

• ₍⸍⸌̣ʷ̣̫⸍̣⸌₎

You slowly, slowly wake back up. Ah, the car engine has stopped. The men are getting out.
Oh no, you only meant to rest for a short bit, but now you've been taken away from Pink Girl's apartment! How will you get home?!
Maybe these men can tell you how? Once you explain that you are Best Cat, unaffiliated with your neighbor's human crimes, they'll let you go?
Oh, but if they see how amazing Best Cat is, with your ability to turn Human, maybe they'll want to keep you for themselves!
This is terrible! What will Best Cat do?
You mewl anxiously as you think over your choices. They're walking around to the back of the car! You have to make a decision soon!

[] Claw your way out of the bag and out of the car. Make your grand escape!

[] Transform into Human form to exonerate yourself of Cat Crimes.

[] Do nothing. Pink Girl will find you eventually.

 

[TheBleachDoctor]

[X] Transform into Human form to exonerate yourself of Cat Crimes.
These Humans must think that Best Cat is guilty of cat crimes! Impossible, Best Cats can never be responsible for cat crimes.
Because they are best.
This is known throughout the land.
So clearly they must be... dog people.

So, you hate to do this, but you must become Human to exonerate yourself of cat crimes.
It is the only way.

In a flash, you become Human again. But you're still in the sack!
And they're picking it up!

Oh no, Best Cat plan is not perfect!

"Oof, this is heavier than I remember," the man grunts, "Alright kitty, here we go..."

You feel them carrying you somewhere. Where? You must ask them.
Once you are out of the bag.

"You're back, I see," a new voice speaks. A woman?

"Yeah boss, we grabbed some collateral," the man speaks again, "She didn't have much."

"...A futon," the woman continues levelly, "Your collateral is a futon."

"Yeah, but we also got her pet," the second man adds, and you feel yourself being moved... and suddenly you're out on the ground! Concrete, hard, only fifth-ranked on places to sleep.

"Nyaa," you blink up at the two men and the woman from your place on the ground, sprawled out on your back, "Best Cat is clearly Human and innocent of cat crimes. Release Best Cat."

All three of them stare speechlessly down at you.

"...You kidnapped someone," the woman blinks owlishly, "You kidnapped a nekomimi cosplayer."

"...I... I could have sworn we grabbed a cat. A pet," the first man mutters, "Could have sworn."

"Not just you," the second man chimes in, "Was definitely a cat. I can back you up on that."

The woman looks incredulously at the other two, "Does this look like a cat?!"

"Er, no boss," the first man cringes, "but it did when we grabbed it."

"...You two have to lay off on the product," she scowls, "Go into the back to sober up. Morons."

The men totter away in a daze while the woman sighs, looking back to you, "Sorry about that, I have no idea how those two idiots thought that you were a cat. Are you okay?"

You look around. Big empty room. Well, not empty, you see some furniture, boxes, some cars... oooh, this is a warehouse! Pink Girl once took you to one!

"Best Cat is fine," you reply, looking to the woman to take in her appearance. A bit older, short black hair that cuts off at her neck. Business suit.

Didn't Madokamom dress like this? Yeah, but obviously not Madokamom.

"...So... third person. Okay," she helps you to your feet, "Are you like a maid at a cat cafe or something? Did those dumbasses shoot you up with mushrooms or bash your head?"

You just stare at her, "...Pet me."

"...No," she answers levelly, "whatever. Just... you can leave. My apologies for the conduct of my men. You... can leave, right? Do you need to rest for a bit first?"

You would go back to Pink Girl, but around you are...
So...
Many...
BOXES!!!

[] Box Time.
[] Find soft place. Sleep.
[] Call for Pink Girl in your mind so she can find you!
[] Sniff new person. That's what you do to new people. You sniff them.

 

[TheBleachDoctor]

[X] Box Time.
You could go home.
You could...
....
BUT BOX

You scramble towards the nearest box, ignoring the shouts of surprise from the woman. Flinging open the lid, you flop into it... wait, there is something in this box! Lots of packs of... snow? You don't know what this is, but it's stopping you from assuming your rightful place as Best Cat of the Box!
Claws out, time for Best Cat to clear it out!

You sink your magic claws into the plastic packs, and tear! The white stuff poofs up into the air and into your face!
You sniff.

....
You stare off into the distance as the universe opens up before you. Your pupils have never opened so wide before.
The fabric of reality is fluffy soft soft.

"Meow" you rumble.

"What the fuck?!" the woman grabs you and pulls you back. No, the box!

[] Cat her
[] Cat the box
[] Cat the white stuff
[] Meow

 

[TheBleachDoctor]

[X] Meow
-[X] Sad kitty eyes
"Meow" you aim your cute kitty face at the woman, giving her the saddest kitty eyes you've ever made.

Things are amazing! Why would you want to leave?

"You bust open my product, you gotta fucking pay!" she shouts, manhandling you even more, "What the fuck is wrong with you?!"

She's mad! Oh no! But everything is better when you're a cat with the white powder stuff!
So you try to cat her.
But something goes wrong! Maybe it's because you're thinking really fast, or really soft, so you don't Cat her but you Cat another box of the white stuff!
A large white cat with the biggest eyes you've ever seen pops into existence!

"MEOW" it rumbles, shaking like a small earthquake.

"WHAT THE EVERLOVING-?!" the woman shrieks. You fall down as she releases you and scrambles backwards from the Fast Cat.

"MEOW" Fast Cat rises in the air, vibrating all the while, and begins floating towards the woman.

"AAAAAAAAHHHHHHHHHH!!!!!" she scrambles away, pulling out a gun and pointing it at Fast Cat. Two shots ring out, but Fast Cat vanishes and reappears behind the woman!

You mewl, staring at the floor as you hear Fast Cat hitting the woman with its paw. Fast Cat is Fast. But Best Cat is Best.

[] Ponder the existence of Fast Cat. How is it Fast? Why is it Fast? Who is it Fast?
[] Fight isn't fair unless both are Cat. Cat woman.
[] Meow
[] Write in...

 

[TheBleachDoctor]

[X] Fight isn't fair unless both are Cat. Cat woman.
Fast Cat wants to fight woman, but cats are better than humans, so the fight isn't fair.
Fights should be fair! That way everyone can have fun! Otherwise it's just bullying!
So you make woman cat.

"Mew," your ears twitch, and woman is now cat.

'WHAT'S GOING ON OH GOD' woman cat now shrieks as she flails on the floor, Fast Cat continuing to bap her. Good, now the fight is fair. Woman cat can't complain.

You could wait to see who wins... but you could just leave! After all, woman cat is now cat, and that's much better than being human!
You're sure she will have no complaints about staying a cat!
Forever.

[] Having bestowed your blessings, leave.
[] Watch the fight to its continuation.
[] Mewl
[] Write in...
