A.N.N. - I don't own Monster Rancher or Thank the Lord for the Night Time by Neil Diamond. Based on Blackheart Syaoran's "Wolf In Sheep's Clothing" fanfic, which I don't own either. What if Holly found out earlier what Genki really was? Well you'll see now won't you? ^_^
Thank the Lord for the Night Time
'Daytime turns me off,
And I don't mean maybeNine-to-five ain't takin'
Me where I'm bound
When it's done, I run out
To see my baby
We get groovin' when the
Sun goes down'
Genki put on his pelt and went for a nice long run. The group had walked at least 10-15 miles today and they were all sacked out now. Except for Mr. Energy of course. Genki was still trying to figure out who the female werewolf in his dreams was. *Could it possibly be Holly,* he thought. *No it can't be, she's not a werewolf. I know because she touched the silver without a problem. I better be careful though. She already suspects that I'm a werewolf. I have know idea what she or the others will do when they find out.* He began to pick up the pace.
' I thank the lord for the
Night time
To forget the day
A day of up-, uptight time
Baby, chase it away
I get relaxationIt's a time to groove'
*Mmmm. The night air and the moon are so soothing. I love running on clear, cool nights like these.* He turned around and headed back.
'I thank the lord for the
Night timeI thank the lord for you
I'll talk about plans now
Baby, I got plenty
Nothing ever seems to turn
Out the way it should
Talk about money, girl,
I ain't got any'
Holly woke up from hearing a sound. She saw a shadow over by some bushes a decided to investigate. When she got over there, she gasped at what she saw. A large tiger like creature had Genki's clothes on. Then the creature changed back into Genki. She tried to run, but Genki grabbed her and pinned her down.
He covered her mouth and said, "Don't scream please, Holly. Now I'll let you up if you promise not to run, ok?" she nodded. He let her up and took his hand off her mouth.
"G..Genki ..y..you're a werewolf aren't you?" She stuttered, scared of him.
"Yes, but I wouldn't hurt you or the others. I'm a good werewolf. Just look at all the chances I've had to hurts you guys, and I haven't." Genki explained. Holly noticed a scared look in his eyes.
'Seems like just one timeI'm feelin' good'
"Why are you scared, Genki?" she asked puzzled.
"I'm scared that your going to kill me or get me killed, now that you know what I am." He looked down.
*He's scared of me. Maybe werewolves aren't as bad as they're made out to be.* "I'm not going to hurt you Genki, but we must tell the others. Why are you scared of me anyway? You could easily kill me." She informed.
"If you had been hunted all your life. Feared and shunned because you're different, you might be scared too. I'm not afraid to die; I long for death. I'm scared to lose you and the others as my friends. I don't like being alone." He began to sob and pulled Holly into a hug. Holly was very much startled by this, but pulled him closer. She comforted him the best she could.
"It's ok, Genki. I'll always be your friend. Just let it out, Genki" she soothingly said, pulling him closer. Genki cried for while, using Holly as his comfort. Then he finally calmed down.
"Thank you, Holly."
"Your welcome, Genki."

"There's something I want to tell you, but I'm afraid to."
"Genki, you can tell me anything"
"I love you, Holly. I know that you probably don't love me. But that's how I feel."
"I do love you, Genki. I just need time to adjust to the real you." She smiled. Genki pulled her into a gentle but firm kiss. She didn't pull away instead she kissed back. They became more passionate, until Holly broke it off. "Lets take it slow, ok?"
"Ok, Holly. "

Night timeI thank the lord for you'
They walked back to camp. They moved their sleeping bags so that they could sleep next to each other that night. Then went to sleep with smiles on their faces.
