Chapter 4: Secrets revealed

"Big sis?!" the girl, named Uriko, said in surprise "You came! You actually came!" she said in rejoice as tears of happiness fell. "Move a side" Kazuki said as he got the bells from his hair, strings soon came out and crushed the bars on the cage that held the girl in. "So this is the person you wanted back?" Jubei asked "Yes" Arisu said with a smile.

The girl stepped out of the cage and she was wearing a blue and sweater that covered her shirt but the sleeves were really (2x) long that it covered her hand, blue shorts and blue and white rubber shoes. Her light brown hair was shorter than Arisu's hair and her eyes were pale blue than icy blue.

"Okay, we got the girl out now will you tell us what is happening?" Shido asked but before Arisu or Mika could answer the alarm went off Beep! Beep! "No time" Mika said urgently and started to run "Follow us" Arisu said quickly and after Mika, the rest followed.

Soon, more men in military uniform came after them. "Darn!!" Mika said, hitting the door with her foot "They locked us in". Around 20 men came and blocked their way, they were prepared to fight but suddenly they were knocked out cold. "Huh? What just happened" Ginji asked "I think I know" Arisu said. Soon two more ladies came; one of them had white, shoulder length, hair and blue eyes while the other one had black, waist length, hair and black eyes.

"Kotoko and Korenai, please don't tell me that you two also followed us..." Arisu said looking annoyed "actually I followed, Korenai came along ' " the girl with black hair said.

Ginji, Himiko, Shido, Kazuki and Jubei were confused and Ban was really (2x) annoyed "Okay... What in the world is going on here?!?!" Ban shouted "big sis.. he is scary" Uriko said as she hid behind Arisu "Why don't we just go back to the Honky Tonk? That is where I will explain everything" Arisu said.

Everyone was back at the Honky Tonk.. "Now will you tell us what is happening?" Himiko asked "Fine" Arisu said "First, this is Kotoko.." she said, pointing at the girl with black hair, who was wearing a red bandana, a white shirt with longs sleeves, a white mini skirt and combat boots "And Korenai.." pointing at the girl with white hair, who was wearing dark blue pants, a black sleeveless shirt and a cape with a hood.

"As you may already know, I am a Zoanthrope.." "What is a Zoanthrope anyway?" Shido asked "A person with a animal counterpart, or some people call us beast-men" Arisu answered.

Everyone, except Uriko, Maika, Kotoko and Korenai, was looking at her "The military found me as an interesting individual, for experimenting or battle, I don't know" Arisu continued "As soon as I was captured, I found out that I wasn't the only Zoanthrope" "You mean there are more of you?" Jubei interrupted "Yes, including me, there was a total no of 17 Zoanthropes that the military had, Uriko, my sister, isn't a original Zoanthrope. The military decided to try and make an artificial Zoanthrope, after the Sign, had appeared by mixing the DNA of a Zoanthrope and of a human." "The Sign?" Ginji asked "It shows that you are a true chosen Zoanthrope" Arisu answered.

"The experiment was almost a success but Nagi cut off the power so Uriko would be saved, but the side affects stopped her from transforming into a complete Zoanthrope so she became a half-beast." "Who is Nagi?" Kazuki asked "She is a Zaonthrope like me but different" Arisu answered.

"Mika, Kotoko and Korenai were also experimental subjects like me but they are not Zoanthropes" Ariso continued "The military found out that these three have special abilities. Mika is an element master, controlling any element for direct battle or back up. Kotoko can control the wind and sound, she can also control the weather but it depends on her mood and Korenai has the most unusual or the scariest, for some people, abilities if them all, Dark, Death and Dark Falme".

Everyone became silent. Himiko and Ginji were just staring while Ban, Kazuki, Shido and Jubei was just trying to understand the situation even more. "How do you escape and Uriko gets left behind?" Kazuki asked "we all escaped including Mika, Kotoko and Korenai, but a month ago the military was able to track us down. They captured Uriko when I left to find medicine for her colds, I wasn't able to get to her on time so I wasn't able to protect her." Arisu answered.

"What is your animal counterpart, Uriko?" Ginji asked "That's one thing you'll have to find out!" Uriko said jokingly "Where are the rest of the Zoanthropes?" Ban asked "We got scattered so most of us are somewhere around the world" Arisu said plainly.

"Big sis.." Uriko said "you forgot to introduce them to us" "Oops.. Sorry about that" "Just get on with it" Mika said "Fine, The guy that scared you back at the old building Is Ban" "Also known as Snake man" Shido interrupted "Shut up, Monkey man!!" Ban shouted "As I was saying... That guy is Shido, then Ginji, Himiko, Jubei and Kazuki"

Uriko was soon giggling as soon as she saw Kazuki, "What's so funny?" he asked "No offense.. but you look like a girl" Uriko answered despite all her giggling. Arisu placed her hand over Uriko's mouth as soon as Uriko finished. "Let's pretend that we didn't hear that" Mika said quickly "Agreed". "We better go" Korenai said "the military might come" "Before anything else, when are you going to pay us?" Ban asked "Tomorrow" Arisu answered "Where are you going to stay?" Ginji asked "I found an abandoned apartment so that's where we are going to stay" Kotoko said "well.. we have to be gaoing now" Mika said.

They were about to leave until.. "Wait.." Kazuki said as he stood up "Kotoko, do you want to take a walk with me?" he asked, Kotoko blushed "Sure" she answered and they both left.

"Oooh!" Uriko said, jumping up and down "I think she like him! ( " "We better leave.. now" Arisu said as she grabbed Uriko by her sleeve and they left.

"So what do you want to talk about?" Kotoko asked, blushing "Not much" Kazuki said "I was just wondering why you keep a flute with you" Kotoko was shocked, no one so far had noticed the flute she was holding. "It's a special flute" Kotoko said "I had it ever since I was little, it almost seems like it has a healing power or something" "Fascinating" Kazuki said. Soon they were staring deeply into each others eyes.
