Yet again, another sleepless night. Mainly because I was thinking about what to do, about what decision to make whether I should say yes, and give Kisshu a chance.

Right now, we were sitting side by side at a table munching on some pineapple and peaches we went to find on the island. Since this is more of a place where they stash their prototype weapon things, I should have known there wouldn't be a refrigerator. On the other hand, there were a two or three beds, but no fridge? What's with that?

Deciding to be straightforward and impatient as usual, Kisshu suddenly popped the question (lol not what you're thinking :P). "So…..do you have an answer for me yet?"

Once I swallowed a chunk of peach I was eating, I looked at him, staring into those big, golden, hopeful eyes. I silently sighed. "No, not yet. This kind of decision usually takes more time than just overnight, don't you think?" she responded.

He growled under his breath, not too happy. "If it were me being asked to be yours, I wouldn't have to think about it. I would jump at the chance in less than a second."

I sighed again, this time louder. "Whether you like it or not, I need to think of this carefully. You won't get an answer out of me any other way."

"I'm just-" he was interrupted by a loud, vibrating sound. We looked at the table where the microphone headset was at, and saw it buzzing around. When we went to grab it, all of a sudden, this monkey came out of nowhere, and took it with him, running out the door.

"HEY!" we both shouted after it.

We started running into the jungle, trying to catch the monkey, while it was swinging from tree to tree.

"Not like you don't already know this, but we need to get that back if we want to know if Pai has got the other key yet." He said, us running at full speed, me lagging behind.

"Like you said, I know." Then I said something, trying to be a little funny. "Hey, if I didn't know any better, that monkey reminds me of Pudding. It's just as hyper and goofy as her. Like it's wanting to play a game with us or something."

He then looked at me oddly. "Do you really think that could be her? I mean f you could turn into a cat, then wouldn't it be possible for her to turn into a total monkey?" he questioned, puzzled.

"I honestly don't know. It usually only happens to me." I replied, running as if my life depended on it. In a way, I guess it does.

When Kisshu turned back to the direction of the monkey, he accidentally slammed right into a tree, before Ichigo could warn him.

He covered his face with his one ahnd. "Ow!" he yelped, a red bruise on his face.

He then said, "I'm gonna mangle that banana breath as if it were the real monkey mew herself!" he said with them chasing after it.

"You better not ever try to, or I'll say no to you flat out!" she threatened.

"Achoo!" Pudding sneezed.

Mint looked at her energetic comrade. "you okay, pudding? You're not getting sick, are you?" Mint asked, backing away just in case.

Pudding waved her hand up and down reassuringly. "Nah, I bet someone's just talking about me. "I am pretty popular you know." Pudding said with a laugh.
