"MISHA! We're gonna be late!" Ahsim yelled, pounding on the door.

"I told you I'm sick!" she yelled back.

"Sure you are!" Ahsim yelled.

He tried the handle.

"Don't think I don't know about that horror movie marathon! I've set it to record now let's go!" he yelled.

Misha opened the door, glaring at her twin.

"It means nothing unless you watch it when it's playing. I don't want to be able to fast forward through commercials. I want to sit in the dark and grow more and more paranoid until it comes back on! IS THAT SO WRONG?" she cried.

"Yes, actually," Ahsim replied.

He caught hold of Misha's arm and lifted her onto his back.

"Move out," he said, marching away.

"Damn it!" growled Haru Hasegawa.

He sighed deeply.

"Something wrong?" his partner, Kei Shin inquired.

"I can't do it! I can't get in their head! Why do they despise something as trivial as anime when there are plenty of other things to take care of?" Haru asked.

He stared at the empty monitor.

"Kei, you'll always be behind me. No matter my decision?" he asked.

Kei lifted his head, his dark bangs parting a bit.

"Of course, Haru," he said.

Haru sighed and ran his hand through his silver hair, smoothing it back.

"Good because I'm initiating project mew."

"Taykoe-san!" yelled Hachi.

Taykoe flinched at the loud voice.

"Guess I didn't leave early enough," she mumbled as Hachi caught up to her.

"I almost missed you. You left earlier than normal."

"There was a reason for that," Taykoe said.

"Which was?" Hachi inquired.

"Flying Spinning Kick!" Ana yelled, plowing into Hachi.

Hachi fell to the street, rolling down the slanted hill. Taykoe and Ana watched her go.

"I'm getting better. She's rolling faster than usual," Ana remarked.

She and Taykoe followed the rolling Hachi down the hill, heading to school. Above their heads came a loud roar that shook the ground. Both girls fell to the ground, covering their ears.

"Damn! What is that sound?" Ana yelled.

"A plane?" Taykoe guessed.

Ana looked at the sky.

"I so doubt it," she said, taking in the sight of the wolf above her.

Taykoe glanced up as well, taking in a glimpse of the blue sky before her sight was taken over by what looked like a fox.

Hachi watched her two friends collapse, animal spirits hovering over them.

"I knew our street was possessed!" she yelled, crawling towards her friend on her hands and knees.

A small mouse scurried across her hand, making her scream.

"What is going on here?' she cried.

"What is going on here?" Ahsim cried.

He and Misha clung to each other as the ground shook.

"I have no clue!" Misha yelled.

The ground shook violently.

"Bet you wish we had stayed home, huh?" she asked.

"Shut up!" Ahsim yelled.

Ariha paused as the wild cat appeared before her. It paced, restlessly, before her.

"Nice kitty," she said.

The wild cat let out a roar and then bounded toward her.

"Should have kept my mouth shut," she said, throwing her bag aside and running away.

The cat was practically upon her. Ariha glanced back, to see the cat and failed to avoid the crack in the road. She tripped and the cat lunged, merging with her body in the few seconds Ariha was in midfall. She crashed to the sidewalk, unconcious.

"Project Mew activated."
