"-ck..."

Before he can even finish speaking, he was washed over with the feeling of everything. Total sensory overload, going from nothing to everything in a split second. The first thing he notices was the blinding light directly in his eyes, futtering and squinting them to keep the sun out. Then is was the long grass and other leafy plants along with soft soil of the earth beneath him, caressing his arms, legs, back and head. The smell of nature and freshly tilled earth entered his nose as he took the fresh air into his lungs. He never breathed this cleanly before, never realizing that even suburbia was not free from polluting smoke of cars. This air was more pure than he could ever imagine but its novelty wore off when he started to really open his eyes to look around.

Above him were stalks of some cereal crop he never saw before, looked quite like barley but the heads were dropping down towards the ground, where he was currently laying, since their were too big for the stems to keep them up. With gains larger than kernels. Talking about corn, the base of each crop were as thick as corn's would be but as you follow it up, smaller stems and long leaves diverge away from the trunk. As a whole, it resembled multiple individual barleys bundled together but as a single plant instead many. As the stems of these plants try to reach the sky but ultimately fail to do so, he looks up to the open sky. It looked beautiful, mostly the traditional blue of home but there were streaks of other colors, like shades of orange, red or even green and purple blending into the blue. There were clouds too, most of them was not the usual fluffy white clouds you think of when you hear the word cloud but ethereal looking as there were more disperse and faint. No rain today then. The other clouds though was way different than he was used to, these were more solid looking. Literally, they look like they were made of rocks. Shards of boulders floating in a cluster like an asteroid belt, getting bigger and denser toward what look like a a floating mountain range. Or is it floating islands, whatever. As Mark adjust to get a better look, he felt the rough clothes he was wearing brush up against his fur.

Wait, fur?

This is the moment that reality truly sunk into me and my mind finally was able to clear up enough to think coherently.

When did I got fur, how is it even possible for me to have fur?

I brought up my right hand up to my face. Blocking the sky was not the hand of a [Human] but something else entirely. It was covered in thick, light blue fur, like the color of the sky, well most of the sky, it completely covered the back of my hand and went up my arm stopping around a little past half way up my forearm before thinning out and transitioning to my dark tanned skin. At the tips of my fingers were still finger nails but they were a little thicker than normal and ended at a point resembling claws. Twisting my hand reveal what I only could describe as paw pads breaking through the fur each on the ends of my fingers but also the part of my palm the meet the fingers and a big pad on the part of the palm my thumb controls.

What happened to me?

This is when I finally sat up and stopped laying on the ground. My gaze never left my hand, paw, whatever until I noticed similar transformations happened the rest of my body. The fur congregate in areas like the ends of limbs, not just my arms but also my legs but I could not get a good look with the old timey leather shoes on my feet. But also my chest, back and shoulders by the way my shirt feels. Looking down the neck hole confirmed this, I got a quite hairy... correction furry chest which I guess is neat but what surprised me the most would be my musculature. I'm no where shredded, more lean than anything but my muscles never been this defined before. Looking down also shows that fur as grows around my waste and crouch. I am no where ready to look down there but... wait butt. It must also cover my butt but there this slight discomfort underneath it. I did not thought much about it, thinking it may have been a stick or rock I was sitting on but with this situation it must mean only a single thing.

I jumped to my feet with surprising speed and grace I did not thought was possible for me but no time to think about that as I immediately turn around and looked at my butt. At the very top of my butt crack, poking out a hole specifically tailored into my pants was a long, fluffy, blue tail that goes all the way down to my thighs. My surprise caused my tail to flicker and I felt that. This surprised me even more so I decided to see if I could control it. I tried to move it and it swayed back and forth like an irritated wag a cat would do. It was way easier than I thought it would, it was completely instinctual, like I had a fifth limb my whole entire life. Bringing my hands up to my revealed what the tail confirmed, cat ears. Rather than on the top of my head like is most anime, it is rather on the sides of my head slightly higher than where my ears were originally surrounded by medium length fur like hair.

"So that was not a dream. I am an actual [Cat Boy]. That also means I am in an entire different world! Oh my god, oh my god! What an I going to do now?!"
