Title: What Rhymes With Tara?
Author: Evercat
Spoilers: None
Feedback: Feel free!
Notes: This is just me messing around, but I thought it might be enjoyable for the Kittens.
Willow and Tara, the witch and her lover,
Could do fancy tricks, like make themselves hover.
Now one day, Will said, "what the heck's going on?
"We're stuck in some weird kind of rhymed verse or song!"
Quoth Tara: "Indeed, it's bizarre, don't you think?
"It's like we're immersed in some hypnotic drink.
"Oh no! It's alarming, the cause we must find,
"Or forever we'll be in this terrible bind!"
"OK," said the redhead, "why not do a spell,
"And promptly the answer to all this will tell.
"I'll create the circle, and let's do it fast,
"I hereby declare that this circle is cast!"
Now Tara incants, "By Hecate's light,
"Please tell us what monstrous evil to fight,
To break this great curse." Comes back the retort,
"The one who has cursed you is not of that sort."
And -crunch- the spell ended, with Hecate gone,
Says Willow, "We still don't know what's going on!"
"OK then," says Tara, "it's not some great devil,
"But only a being of a lower level."
"A pixie or fairy, between you and me,
"Is the one who has done this, obviously.
"All we need do is find it, and ask it to stop,
"And then we'll see that this whole matter will drop.
"Let's cast once again, and this time invoke,
"The life-form that's done this, to come once we've spoke,
"And we'll tell it what's what. But if that doesn't do,
"We may need impale it on something askew!"
The witches came close, and when arm in arm,
Did summon the creature, to prevent further harm,
With a gleam in her eye, what monster should show?
None other than Miss Kitty Fantastico!
"Our cat is the critter?" says Willow, "Oh wow!"
Miss Kitty gives no reply other than "Meow."
Quoth Willow, "Miss Kitty, please do more than this,
"Please end this affliction; return us to bliss!"
But Kitty refused, with a shake of her tail,
And her arrogant ways turned Tara quite pale,
"Miss Kitty, end this, we simply can't cope!
"If you don't, then we'll remove all your dope!"
"That's right, oh yes, no more catnip for you,
"And we might just start feeding you dog food, too!"
This ultimate sanction the kitty can't take,
Now she's aware just what is at stake.
She lifts her head and with a purr the spell breaks.
"Good kitty," says Willow.
***
Now then, whoever encounters this story,
Take heed of the many great perils of glory,
When your thoughts turn to dark magicks and that,
Remember Willow and Tara's cat.

That was so cute!!!! Ten points for originality. Gosh, I always knew Miss Kitty had a dark side to her.
