Sakura and Naoko were in the locker room, both bored. Naoko was walking along the line of lockers and opening the top row as she walked past. Sakura was busy trying to find some way to make cute costumes out of the clothes they already had. "If only they had pink..." she muttered to herself.

"WHAT?" Naoko yelled from one end of the locker row.

"NOTHING!" Sakura yelled back. Naoko ran back towards Sakura, closing all the lockers she had opened while walking in the opposite direction and making a huge din. "That was fun!" she said.

Sakura continued to dig through the clothes and mutter to herself.

Bill came rushing in. "I have urgent news!" he wheezed.

"More urgent than the fact you have asthma?" Naoko asked.

Bill glared at her. "No! There will be a HUGE herd of wild, unregistered bishies stampeding three miles north of here in a few hours!"

Sakura looked up from her pile of clothes. "unregistered bishies you say?"

Naoko frowned. "I'm not sure I want to..." she said. "Remember the trouble that we had with Q-Bert?"

"Yeah...." Sakura said. "He refused to accept he was a bishie. We had to kidnap him...."

Bill's eyes bugged out. "You KIDNAPPED him?"

"Yes, is that wrong?" Naoko asked.

Bill was speechless.

Sakura looked at Naoko then back at Bill. "Really... is it that wrong?"

"We could be shut down!" Bill started to ramble.

Naoko looked at Sakura. "But we were doing our job!" she said.

"I'll be put in jail!" Bill continued.

"But, he doesn't seem to hate it here.." Sakura said thoughtfully.

"Hmm.... maybe we should go ask him?" Naoko asked.

"Do we have time?" Sakura said and looked at her watch. "We have about 2 and a half hours... I think we can make it..."

The two captors walked off to the Bishie room, leaving Bill to himself.

"AND I COULD BE GIVEN THE DEATH PENTALTY!" he shrieked.

Sakura rolled her eyes. "Honestly..." Naoko stopped to examine a small black speck she thought to be a flea, having never given up her argument with Inu Yasha, while Sakura poked her head in the door. "Hey, is Q-Bert here?" she asked Syaoran, who was walking to the pool in a swimming suit. Sakura tried her best not to oggle.

"I haven't seen him. Why do you ask?" was Syaoran's reply.

"Something to do I guess," Sakura said trying to look away from Syaoran. Her eyes kept wandering back to him though.

She looked to the remains of the cafe and spotted Q-Bert standing there. She smiled and walked over.

"Heyya, Q-Bert. How's the preserve going for you?" she asked.

"Erm.... fine I guess," Q-Bert said and turned a bit red.

"Well, that's good!" Sakura said. "Because we accidentally let it slip to Bill that we kidnapped you, and, well, you know him!"

Q-Bert gave a little laugh. "Yeah, I know..." the two continued to talk for a while.

Naoko suddenly burst into the room, holding the black speck she found. "INU YASHA!" she bellowed, "I FOUND A FLEA!"

Inu Yasha poked his head out from underneath the roof of the cafe. "Oh really?" he said. He jumped down. "Let's have a look at it, shall we?" He walked over to her and inspected the tiny thing she held up. "..................... its a piece of dirt."

"But it's black," Naoko told him.

"Dirt can be black," Inu Yasha responded.

Naoko noticed that Sakura and Q-Bert were talking to each other, and that both looked a bit red in the face. "OOH!" she squealed and grabbed Inu Yasha and gave him a crushing hug in her glee. "I see a budding romance!"

Inu Yasha looked over. "If you say so," he said.

"You, my friend," Naoko said. "Need to learn about the subtle things in life..." she flicked the piece of dirt at him and tiptoed off to spy on the two.

Naoko came up behind the two very quietly. Neither of them noticed. The other bishies in the preserve noticed and tiptoed over too.

"So... you really like video games do you?" Sakura asked, to make sure she had heard him correctly.

"Oh yeah! Especially this one called Phantasy Star Online," Q-Bert replied.

Naoko noticed the other bishies around and gave them a signal to be very still. The bishies nodded.

"Erm.... so..........." Q-Bert said.

At that moment, Bill burst into the room. Naoko glared. "He had to at THAT moment," she muttered. Vash looked slightly disappointed. The others walked away.

Sakura stood up hurriedly. "Yesh?" she asked, blushing slightly.

Q-Bert slunk away, looking pissed.

"What are you two DOING?" Bill bellowed. All the bishies stopped what they were doing to watch. "there are UNTAMED bishies STAMPEDING in a few minutes!!"

Naoko looked at her watch. "More like 30, if you ask me."

Bill started hyperventilating.

"Naoko... I don't think you should have done that..." Sakura said, slowly backing away from Bill.

The other bishies back up too, but Naoko walked up to Bill and slapped him on the back.

"You okay there? Did you have something caught in your throat?" she asked.

Sakura fell over anime style.

Bill's face turned purple and he started to swell. "GET.... OUT... THERE... AND... CATCH THOSE... BISHIES!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!" he shrieked.

Sakura and Naoko cowered. "I'm sorry!" Sakura cried and the two scuttled out the door, followed closely by Inu Yasha.

Q-Bert, Syaoran, Vash, and Knives glared at Bill.

"How can you yell at your employees?" Syaoran asked.

"They're nice... a bit dense, but nice," Q-Bert said. "And Sakura's cute." he added in his head.

Vash began to cry. "They were the ones that gave me Doughnut flavored ramen... you can't yell at them," he sobbed.

Knives elbowed his brother.

Bill glared back at them. "They weren't doing their job, that's why."

"Jeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeez," Sakura said to Naoko and Inu Yasha as they walked towards the mailbox. "Bill was in a bad mood........."

"He's craaaaazy," Naoko said and looked back at the door of the Bishie Room in awe.

"Feh!" Inu Yasha said. "Let's just go."

"Stupid!" Naoko said to the device. "Set up a teleport!"

"OKAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAY!" Stupid said cheerfully.

Inu Yasha grimaced. "That thing is going to die."

The three stuck their hands in the mailbox and they were transported away. When they arrived at the place that the stampede was going to pass though, a very small town, no one was outside.

"This is like a country western movie when the bad guy comes to town," Sakura said and watched a woman pull back the curtains of her window a bit, then close them hurriedly when she saw Sakura watching her.

"I wonder..." Naoko said. She marched up and pounded on a random door. "Excuse me!!" She yelled. "But I need to talk to someone!!" She waited for a minute. Nothing happened. "Either open this door or I am going to pound it in!!" The door was opened quickly.

"What?" a woman hissed at them as soon as the trio was inside.

"Why is everyone's door closed?" Sakura asked.

Inu Yasha was wandering around the room, looking at objects. The woman was watching him fearfully.

"Because there are thousands of Bishies stampeding our way!" she said. "Don't you know?!"

"Of course!" Naoko said. "That's why we're here! We're Bishie Captors!"

That was the wrong thing to say. With another frightened look, she forced the heroines and their personal bishie out of her house and slammed the door.

Inu Yasha fell over and then both Sakura and Naoko fell on top of him.

"Owwwwww..." Sakura cried, rubbing her head because it hit the hilt of Inu Yasha's Testuiga.

There was a loud thundering sound coming and the ground started to quake. Sakura and Naoko scrambled to stand up but fell over again because of the violent tremors.

"Naoko... this might be a bit harder than expected." Sakura called over the noise.

"Nah, we'll just talk to their leader," Naoko called back.

Over the horizon hundreds of bodies appeared and were approaching rapidly.

Naoko and Sakura started to crawl towards the mass of moving bodies. Inu Yasha staggered after them.

"Hello there!" Naoko screamed over the sound of the running bishies. She waved.

Sakura couldn't see how the bishies could have heard her, but the one in the front started to run towards her and the rest followed.

"Yes?" the Head Wild Bishie asked her. He had dark skin and dark hair. Naoko was goggling at him, so Sakura took the lead. Inu Yasha snorted in disgust at Naoko's awe.

"Hi!" Sakura said. "Did you know that you are an unregistered bishie? Along with the rest of the bishies in your herd?"

The bishie looked back at the crowd, who were stamping their feet and looking around nervously. "Yeah, I guess so," he said. "Why though?"

"Weeeeeeeeell..." Sakura began but was cut off by Naoko.

"Wecomefromabishiepreserveandwe'dliketotakeyouallback!" she shouted very quickly.

The head bishie turned to Sakura, "What did she just say?"

"She said that we come from a bishie preserve and that we'd like to take you all back," Sakura replied.

Naoko blushed.

"What's a "bishie preserve?" head bishie asked.

"Well, it's a place where all of you can live in peace... except for the fan girl time when millions of girls come and hang all over you, but that part doesn't matter. We have very great service for you and you accommodations are very nice," Sakura answered smiling.

The head bishie seemed to be thinking because there was a very long silence.
