Chapter 1: No Need For A Peaceful Morning!
Ryoko layed back against the roof, taking in the blue sky and cool breeze of the
early morning. The Sakura blossoms were in full bloom, and all was a peace, a rare occasion,
at the Masaki residence. A bird flew by, carrying twigs in it's beak, obviously for it's nest.
Ryoko smiled, watching the coi swim about in the water below.
`Life is so peaceful on earth...' she thought to herself, closing her eyes.
"Mya!" demanded a small furry cat-rabbit.
"Go chase butterflies," Ryoko said, gesturing towards the fields.
"MYA!"
"GO!" Ryoko shouted, as energy crackled from her fists. Ryo-Ohki's ears went down,
and he sulked away.
"Finally, perfect peace and quiet," Ryoko said to herself.
That peace would not last long.
"Mya!" Ryo-Ohki pounced, nearly missing a big blue monarch butterfly.
It landed on her nose, mocking the cat-rabbit by flapping it's shimmering wings.
Ryo-Ohki chased the butterfly and tried to catch it, but didn't succeed. Suddenly,
she stopped. Her fur stood out on end, her claws were exposed, and her ears flattened
behind her head.
A noise.
Near the pond. She crawled forward, belly to the ground, cautiously sniffing the ground.
The noise again.
This time louder.
She closed in on the pond, moving slower. She peeked over a stone lucky cat, and shrieked.
"MYA! MYAAAAAA!"
"Is t-that y- you R-Ryo-Ohki...?"
