"Alright," Yusuke said, "does anyone else feel weird all of a sudden? What the hell just happened?" He looked down at himself as he stood in the city park and saw white fur and dog paws.

"We've turned into animals," Kurama said as he examined himself. His fir was red, black, and white, and since he had been a fox before he knew right away he was now a red-fox.

Yusuke asked, "Aren't you actually a white fox?"

"Now is not the time to joke around," Hiei said coldly as he saw his black cat body.

"At least you're cool animals!" Kuwabara shouted, "Look at me! I'm a mouse!"

"You certainly are," Hiei replied as he jumped forward and grabbed Kuwabara with his mouth.

Kurama jumped on top of Hiei, places his paws against his neck and said, "Hiei no! Don't eat him no matter how good he looks!"

Hiei spit him out and said, "I wasn't actually going to eat him, get off of me." He stood back up.

"Can we ask ourselves something?" Yusuke asked, "What the hell just happened and how the hell to get back to normal?" He looked at his paws again.

Some voices came from the other side of the city park they were in, "Look at the kitty and puppy over there! Is that a fox?" They looked over and saw some children had noticed them.

"Someone think of something!" Kuwabara shouted as they started running over to them.

"Ascend, now," Kurama said as he climbed up the tree they were standing under with ease. Hiei grabbed Kuwabara in his mouth again and followed him up the tree to an opposite branch.

Yusuke said, "Guys, I can't climb trees! Aarf! Did I just bark?"

"Get me out of your mouth, Hiei!" Kuwabara shouted. He threw him onto the branch beside him.

"Yusuke!" Kurama said, "Stop barking at us! Run away!"

"Puppy!" a little girl shouted at him.

"Get away!" Yusuke shouted as he ran away from them.

Hiei said, "Hn, now we're separated and we don't know what happened to cause this mess. What should we do?" He looked at Kurama.

He answered, "Genkai might have some ideas, and even if she doesn't we'll be away from humans eyes wondering what a cat and fox are doing together. We'll have to meet up with Yusuke later."

"Master Genkai?" Kurama asked as he looked around her compound.

"Hiei would you hurry up?" Kuwabara asked, "Kurama's already at the top."

Hiei made it time to spit him out as he said, "You try running up stairs on four legs and carrying a dead weight!"

"Now you know how I feel whenever you pass out!" he replied. Hiei stepped on him and squished his paw.

"Hiei, stop," Kurama said as he pushed Hiei's arm off of him.

"What's going on out here?" Genkai's voice said in a distance.

"Genkai?" Kurama asked as he looked around.

She landed in front of them, revealing she was an owl. "So I see you've all changed into animals too," she said as she examined all of them.

Kuwabara asked, "Where's Yukina?"

"Kazuma?" Yukina asked as she ran over to them as a white cat, "You're a mouse now? What's going on?"

Genkai asked, "Does anyone else hear panting?"

"I finally made it!" Yusuke said as he barely made it to the top step, "Hey there grandma. Whew!" He laid down beside all of them.

Kuwabara asked, "What took you so long?"

"I tried to get on the train," he explained slowly as he stood back up, "but they wouldn't let me on because I'M A DOG NOW so I had to run all the way here. Boy that was a nightmare and don't even-squirrel!" He started bolting for the treeline as a squirrel ran up a tree trunk. Yusuke stopped at the trunk and started barking furiously.

Hiei said, "I have a feeling that's what took him so long."

"Ignore him," Genkai said, "come inside." She spread her wings and went airborne toward her temple.

Once everyone was inside, including Yusuke, Kurama asked, "Do you know why we suddenly turned into animals?"

"There's a delicate balancing act in spirit world," Genkai explained, "that's the only thing I think that can do this. If the three pillars that are balancing on each other are messed with everyone who has spirit awareness will feel it."

Yusuke said, "That's the only thing you can think of? And what if it's not that?"

"Incoming!" Botan shouted as she crashed through the ceiling in the middle of the floor.

Kuwabara asked, "Botan what are you?"

"I'm a ferret," she replied as her nose twitched, "and flying on an ore with four paws is much harder than with a human body." She looked around and examined everyone. "Great, it's spread to human world too."

Yusuke started scratching behind his ear and said, "Just get to the point Botan, how did this happen?"

"There are three pillars in spirit world that balace all three worlds together," she explained, "someone must have done something to them and Koenma is too busy to see what the problem is himself."

Yusuke asked, "You mean he's going to ask us to do this? We're animals Botan!"

"He is too!" she shouted.

"Hn," Hiei said, "so the child is now an animal. What did he turn into?"

Botan replied, "Come to spirit world and find out." She walked back over to her ore and tried flying again, only to flip through the air outside and launch into the sky at high speeds.

Yusuke said, "Now this is something I have to see."
