*Malefica entered the Bookshop and looked around. She had found the adverts that told about the kittens out for adoption. And Malefica had lots and lots of love for a kitten or two.... If she was to be alone in Icarus' apartment when he was out, she sure could need some company. And even Icarus couldn't be jealous of adorable little fur-balls.*
"Hello," *She called gently.* "Anybody here?"

"One moment!" *Aziraphale called cheerily. After a moment, he emerged from the back room, a white kitten in one pocket, and a gray one on his shoulder.* "Good afternoon. May I help you?"

*Malefica smiled warmly when she saw the two adorable little fur-balls. She politely gave her hand to Aziraphale in a greeting*
"Good afternoon. My name is Malefica. I saw the adverts about kittens... and though I wanted to adopt someone. I hope I am not too late...."

"Oh, of course not," *he said with a relieved smile.* "Honestly, there hasn't been much interest yet. Did you have anything in particular in mind? There are boys and girls, in every color you can imagine."

*Malefica's smile grew even bigger. Her beautiful blue eyes glittered like stars when she saw the beautiful little kittens. She knew the choice would be hard, as much as she loved animals.*
"Oh, I didn't have anything particular in mind. I love animals, so I will gladly accept what I can get. Can I adopt more than one? Two perhaps?"

*He laughed.* "If you like. But they're quite a handful," *he warned.* *As he spoke, a bright eyed black cat bounded from between his feet.* "Little rascal," *he said with a laugh.* "You're not supposed to be out here." *He reached down to pick up the offending creature, to the protest of the kitten on his shoulder.*

*Malefica laughted too.*
"Oh, I like a challenge."
*she replied with a glimpse of humor in her eyes.*
"I would love to adopt two kittens, if I may. Could you please help me to pick them out? I'd be stuck in here all day if I have to choose by myself. I absolutely adore animals!"

*Aziraphale laughed brightly, as the black kitten butted his head against Malefica's leg.*
"I believe that one quite likes you."

*Malefica laughed too, totally melting for the adorable black kitten. She lifted it up gently and cuddled it.*
"I like him too. Can I have him, please?"

*He smiled warmly.*
"Of course you may, dear. If you'd still like another, he and his sister get along quite well."

*Malefica smiled too.*
"I can have two? Oh thank you! I don't want him to feel alone in his new home. I'd gladly take his sister too, if she accepts me. Do they have any names?"

"Of course you can have the two," *he said with a smile.* "But they don't have names yet- there are a bit too many for us to name them all. Just a moment." *He disappeared up the stairs for a minute, leaving Malefica alone with the black kitten. He emerged a few moments later without the white and grey ones, but holding a brown tabby.* "Here she is."

*Malefica melted for the beautiful brown tabby too. Now she had two beautiful kittens to spoil and give all her love to.*
"She is beautiful. Thank you very much!"
*She lifted the brown tabby up in her arms. It snuggled close to her immediately, purring.*

*He smiled.*
"Thank you for taking them in- they needed someone to take care of them."
*He scratched behind the black kitten's ears one more time with a grin.*

*Malefica smiled and caressed her two new kittens, beaming with joy.*
"And I need someone to take care of" *She said quietly.* "I promise to give them a good home."
*She went to the door and looked back at him before she left.*
"Thank you. I wish you the best of luck with finding homes for the others as well."
*Then she walked out the door, eager to get home with her new babies.*
