Canadian Tom-boy: Sorry for the very, very long delay. Though I shouldn't be apologizing because I was pretty sure I stated I was doing all this for my own enjoyment…No matter. I hope I have not lost a few friends on my trips of the moving out west. On with the story!

"Com'on Urei! We'll leave without you!" Ou called as the three girls waited for the shy blonde to drench herself in bug spray liked a wild animal. She jogged up with them, joining them as they began walking.
"Do you really need to much bug spray on you? I can smell it perfectly as if you had sprayed it up my nose." Uo stated.

"I'm overly allergic to mosquito bites. They swell up thiiis big without anything but the air touching them." Urei explained, making a circle with her fingers the size of a Canadian quarter (A/N: They're in Japan y'know, so I felt the need to say it.).

Tohru looked at the size of the circle she made. "Ouch, that must itch like crazy."

Urei shrugged. "Most people itch bites no matter how big, but since I was little I gained control of my own body so I don't scratch them. Eventually they go small and I don't even know they're there."

Hana wasn't paying attention at all as they left sight of the cabins.

Five minutes before they were supposed to head to the camp fire sight, Tohru checked her little pink watch. "We should be heading back soon. Only…five minutes?"

"We better run then." Uo said, breaking out into a run with Hana following her. Tohru soon realized what they were doing and ran too. But Urei had dropped something from her pack and was looking for it. "Guess! Wait up! …Guys?"

Urei stood up with a flashlight from her pack, looking around. Which way did they go? Then she felt a firm grip on her shoulder.

With the flickering flame of the fire in sight, The three musketeers broke through the bushes, huffing a puffing. "Sorry…we're….late…" Tohru puffed between breaths, sitting down.

The councilor nodded, taking a head count with her pencil. "We're missing someone."

Hana didn't even look up. "Urei Yorokobi." She said.

Tohru and Uo blinked. Tohru stood up. "Oh no! I left her back there! I gotta go find her!" She turned, about to run back into the woods, but an instructor stopped her.

"Don't worry; Urei has been to this camp before and there are yellow marks on the trees she can follow back to the cabins." The councilor assured her, motioning for her to sit down.

Tohru looked over her shoulder into the woods, sitting down. She sighed. I'm worrying for nothing.

"Now shuffle yourselves up as I pick who's 'it' for the first game."

The campfire period of the night had been cut short due to rain.

But the boys didn't mind; they were having fun with pillow fights all in one cabin. Crowded.

Kyo and Yuki were on their separate bunks, Yuki reading a book, Kyo twirling a feather from his pillow between his fingers. He was the only one with a feather-stuffed pillow. He looked over as someone socked Danko in the back of the head. He snickered a bit. Iki was sleeping face down in his pillow on his bunk when someone's pillow flew into him like a bullet, waking him up. Momiji looked up at Iki. "Sorrrryy!"

Iki blinked at him sleepily, putting his face back in the pillow, mumbling something about a baseball bat.

Kyo looked up at the wooden boards that made up the frame of the top bunk. He wished there was a unisex cabin… He shook his head. What am I saying, er, thinking! If there WAS one, and I asked to be in it, I'd look like a pervert! He looked over at Yuki. All he does when all the girls aren't around is read.

One person who was on one of the top bunks suddenly lost his balance, falling off the bunk. He would've landed on Danko, but the boy whipped around, grabbing the other boy's arms and holding him up. The boy blinked down at him. "Whoa, thanks man." Danko smiled. "It's no problem." He held the boy up until he was sitting safely on the bunk.

No one but Yuki and Kyo had noticed. Kyo didn't care, but Yuki found what Danko did a strange act. His thoughts were interrupted when a councilor's voice told them to turn the lights out and go to bed. Outside the window, he swore he heard raccoons.

"Awww, no!" One of the boys woke up half the cabin with his moans as he stood by their door with the broken screen and the torn open garbage bag. Danko put his glasses on, peering at the garbage bag from his top bunk. Iki shot awake, jumping down from his bunk and grabbing his open bag, rummaging through it. He groaned.

"Raccoons." Kyo said simply, eyes closed.

Iki glared. "I know that! Because they left their grubby paw prints where my chocolate bar used to be!" He snapped.

Danko smiled at Iki. "I told you not to bring sweets."

Kyo yawned, slinking off the bed and rummaging through his bag for a change of clothes. "…Hey. A pair of my jeans are gone." He noted sleepily. Any more awake and he would've confronted everyone in the cabin noisily.

Everyone looked into their bags, finding something gone. Danko's cell phone was gone. Yuki's gardening book. Everyone found something gone, except for Iki. When people asked what he got stolen, he only grunted and mumbled that the only thing gone was his chocolate bar. He laid his face in his pillow.

The hallway had somehow gotten longer than it's impossible length, then shortened rapidly, so that there were three walls with three doors. There were the rat and cat doors on either side of her, but the door in front of her was new. It had no colour. It was not white. It was not black. It was not any colour of the rainbow. Instead, it was a swirling mass of invisible, but yet she couldn't see through the door, though when she tapped on it, it quite obvious that it was made of glass.

She blinked, dragging her fingers along the door. It felt like stained glass. She looked up at the door, which stretched all the way to the ceiling of this strange hallway. And then she noticed this door had an animal carved into in. She couldn't see it properly, so she reached up to feel it out, but the carving seem to moved up just out of her reach when she tried to touch it. Behind her, she heard a cry of help…

Tohru jerked into the world, sitting up and hugging her legs. She looked at her watch. It read one minute past seven a.m. She got up, knowing she wouldn't be able to fall back asleep, and that everyone had to way up in nine minutes soon enough.

She looked over at the bunk next to hers. Urei still hadn't returned from the hiking trip.

A/N: Apologies again. Especially since there arm many time skips in this chapter and it's a short one. I really just wanted to get to the pillow fight and the dream. But I give you a warning: when this fanfiction is done, I will probably be going back to it and replacing chapter with ones that are the same, but longer and more detailed. So look out for that!

And also, if you have any ideas of what should happen or what activities the characters could do next, just private message me or tell me in your review. But private message is recommended. For a short time only, too, I am accepting OCC for this story. Make up a character profile, send it to me, and your character might have a role in the story!

Look out for the next chapter, Time for a Rat Circus!
