Disclaimer:
The plotline of this fanfiction is fictional. Some of the events are, indeed, inspired by real-life events, and parodies do exist. But other than references that are mostly irrelevant to the main plot, no event exactly mirrors what happens in real life that the author knows.
Author's notes:
...Why am I submitting a fanfic this late, and with few characters in the anime even appearing anyway?
This is another approach towards some of the symbols in Yuri Kuma Arashi. As I'm writing this fanfic, I feel that the symbols in the anime are somewhat ambiguous (hence all the wild guesses from viewers during the airing period). This is a more straightforward approach and tries to analyse the mentalities of the characters for the readers, but it's still not too blatant.
One important note: Don't expect the settings or the meaning of the symbols to closely follow those of the anime esp. the later episodes. Even the settings of Kumaria here are completely different from the anime.
So, get it? Let's start.

PRELUDE
-FLASHBACK-
'Since then, Beatrice the bear and Lily lived in the forest. They may not live "happily ever after", but Beatrice promised to make Lily happy, and for Lily, that promise was the best gift for her. THE END.'
'…So this is the story you wrote? Do you have any idea what you've written?'
'No dad, don't!'
The storybook was thrown into the fireplace, and went into flames.
'A human and a bear living happily? Bears are the origin of evil, and you're writing a story of a human tainted by evil? Stay outside for an hour!'
-FLASHBACK ENDS-
[In Chi-kaku]
My name is In Chi-kaku, 21, now the Student Council president of Nankyou Academy (a women's university).
Recently some people are gossiping about the events going on in the neighbouring Arashigaoka Academy.
Me? Though I do know about the events, I'm really bothered by the gossiping. As a matter of fact, I hate what is called 'yuri kuma'. Whenever somebody around talks about yuri kuma, I try to stay away from her. What I do care about are those bears' threat towards humans, and the Invisible Storm group in Arashigaoka.
This Invisible Storm thing has good ideas. Its methods though, are somewhat crude, although it's highly organised. The fact is, the Invisible Storm in Arashigaoka was mainly founded by the students. …But if I set up a similar group in Nankyou Academy following the core ideas of Invisible Storm in Arashigaoka, it may even get formally approved by the school. And after all, Nankyou Academy would definitely take actions against yuri kuma if matters worsen.
The idea of establishing such a group has been in my mind for a long time.
The story starts one evening.
After dinner, I head back to my residence near Nankyou Academy. Just when I am about to open the door to my house, I see something moving in the bushes about 100 yards away.
I quickly get in my house, close the door, run to the attic, take out a telescope and start to observe the bushes. I can't see clearly in the dark, but it appears that a bear is licking something.
I immediately turn away from this image. 'I never thought evil was this close. I must warn the citizens now.' I say to myself, and quickly grab a speaker on the desk beside me and shout out…
YURI KUMAAAAAAAAAAAA!
YURI KUMA ARASHI!
