Chapter 6

Ed and Krit had been walking for a couple of hours in silence. Mostly because Ed couldn't really think of anything to say to Krit and it was driving him nuts. Why wasn't she talking, she always talks. Ed had to break the silence or he was going to go insane.

"Are we there yet?"

"Almost," was Krit's simple reply, then she continued to walk in silence. This aggravated Ed to no end.

"Why aren't you talking! SAY SOMETHING!" as Ed was yelling he noticed that Krit was all of a sudden really happy for no real reason. "Why are you smiling all of a sudden?"

"We're here!" shouted Krit happily throwing her arms in the air and laughing.

"Were ware, we're just in the middle of the woods!"

Krit didn't even bother replying to him, she looked around and made a couple of little yipping sounds. All of a sudden a little grey fox came out of a log and ran up to Krit and started to make little whining and barking noises. Krit replying to him in the same manor. She then picked him up and walked over to Ed.

"This is Pipit. Isn't he the cutest thing that you have ever seen!" Krit said while holding the fox up to Ed . Not knowing what to do he just pat the fox on the head and said, "nice fox." Pipit seemed happy with this and turned to Krit and barked, "is he going to be like us soon?" Krit looked like she was thinking then replied to him, yes, I think he should be one of us. Go tell the others, and get things ready before we get there." with that Pipit leaped out of her arms and ran into the woods.

"What was that about?" asked Ed looking at Krit suspiciously.

"Oh nothing that really concerns you, well come on we need to take care of something first before I check on the boarder." Then Krit started to walk into the woods with Ed following behind.

As they walked through the woods, Ed noticed that Pipit wasn't the only fox in the woods. In fact, they were every were. Looking at him out of holes in the ground and hollow logs, some were up in holes in the trees, and then a few grey foxes like Pipit were up in the trees looking down on him, ( A/N: the Grey Fox is the only fox that can truly climb trees, most other foxes live in burrows).

"Why are there so many foxes here?" asked Ed looking around seeming a little uncomfortable.

"These are my people like Kira's are cats and Gwen's are moles. You are new here and they want to see who you are. Don't worry they aren't going to hurt you, I brought you here and they know I only bring people that they can trust."

"What would happen if I just stumbled in here?"

"They would probably try to drive you out and if that didn't work then they would simple kill you." said Krit not really noticing the affect it had on Ed. They soon came up to a rather large burrow under the roots of a big tree.

"Here we are." said Krit making sure that Ed was still following her. She tried to usher him in but he didn't seem to want to move anymore.

"I think I'll just wait out here, you said that it didn't concern me anyway," then Ed noticed he couldn't back up the foxes were blocking him from backing up, in fact they were slightly pushing him forward.

"Ok it dose concern you a little so you are going to come with me." said Krit getting a little impatient with Ed for his stalling.

"What the heck are you trying to pull! I'm not going in there and you can't make me!" Ed yelled at Krit. Krit looked slightly annoyed then started talking to the foxes.

"Make him get his arse in here."

"Can we bite him?"

"Try not to but if you must then it is ok." Then all of a sudden a fox slammed into Ed's back knocking him forward onto the ground. The they started to pull him in but he fought back knocking a few of them off of him. Just then Krit came up and stabbed him with a needle that a fox had handed to her. Ed's little world went fuzzy as the foxes continued to drag him into the burrow, then everything went black.

1 hour and ½ later

Ed woke up in a white room on a operating table. Something was tickling his hand, he realized that it was fuzzy and was probably one of the foxes. He grabbed it and tried to throw it across the room but ended up throwing himself off of the table. Trying to figure out what just happened he saw a fox tail, I have you this time. He once again grabbed at it and continued trying to grab it until Krit walked into the room.

"What are you doing?" asked Krit looking at him like he was crazy. He then realized that she had fox ears and a fox tail.

"WHAT HAPPENED TO YOU!" yelled Ed pointing at Krit.

"I can make these," she then tugged at her ears and tail, "come and go as I please. Most people don't have them so I keep them hidden, but when I am with my people I have them out. So are you done chasing your own tail cause we have work to do."

"What are you talking about?" said Ed rather confused at her last sentence.

Looking rather annoyed Krit pointed to a mirror in a corner of the room, "Look for yourself." Ed walked over to the mirror and looked, but regret that he did and jumped back. He had seen himself but he had fox ears ad a tail. He slowly went back to the mirror and looked. Then slowly reached up to his head and touched his ears, then his tail.

"WHAT THE HELL DID YOU DO!"

"You should be happy, at least I did it. Now you wont have any major side affects. You might get little urges to eat a mouse or something at most but other than that you are fine. You should feel sorry for Roy if anyone." Krit stated as Ed continue to tug at his new ears.

"Why would I feel sorry for him?" asked Ed inspecting his tail now.

"He is probably going through the same surgery only it is a cat, and it is being performed by a cat so he's going to get all of the side affects." This didn't seem to bother Ed at all in fact it made him giggle a bit.

"Wait you said that you can change back and forth, so can I?" Ed asked looking up at Krit.

"No sorry, you struggled to much and put me in a bad mood. If you had come quietly I would have made it so you can change back but you pitched a fit so your going to pay for it. Just think of it this way your not the only one that is going to be permanently scared for life, Roy can join you." ending the conversation there Krit motioned for him to follow as she walked out of the room.

Walking out of the burrow that they had entered they walked a ways till Krit stopped and jumped up into a tree and climbed to the top. Ed followed and for the first time noticed that he had claws.

"Why do I have these?" asked Ed holding his left hand up to Krit.

"You were kind of born with that," said Krit seeming really confused by his really stupid question.

"Not my hand I'm talking about the claws!"

"You got them when you got the tail and ears. Just think of it this way you will always have a letter opener on your hand." turning away from him Krit continued to climb up the tree. Ed, being a little flustered followed her onto a platform at the top of the tree that over looked the forest. Just in the middle there was a lake then more trees.

"The lake and the forest behind it belongs to us so we could never get to the border from here in less than a day."

"Then what was the point of coming up here?" Ed said clearly annoyed.

"You'll see," just then a blue jay flew down with a note in its beak, it hoped over to Krit and gave it to her.

"What you control birds to?"

"No, we made a treaty with them they help us with messages and I we don't steal there eggs," Krit said looking over the note.

"WHAT!" Krit yelled at the bird, "THIS CAN'T BE RIGHT I SAW THEM DIE!" The bird and Ed were cowering as Krit screamed and yelled off her anger. After she stopped for a little bit Ed got the courage ask, "Who did you see die?"

"The Teletubies, I saw Neji gut them all four of them," (A/N: for reference read Orange Soda one of are other stories if you have no idea what I am talking about.) quickly she wrote something on a peace of paper and gave it back to the bird. "Give this to Admiral Hex, if you fail me I'll turn you and all your people into pin cushions," very frightened the bird flew off with the note, as Krit jumped out of the tree.

"Pipit!"

"Yes, ma'am." At this point Ed realized he could understand what they were saying. He was going to announce it but it seemed Krit was in no mood to hear anything stupid from him so he kept quite.

"Spread the word that Teletubies are at our Easter border. Get everyone ready for battle."

"Yes, ma'am but I came here to tell you something important."

"What is it?

"Cats have come seeking aid they were attacked and their leader and someone else is trapped in their base they can't get out. They are asking us to help them, and they have little ones with them. What should we do?"

"Take all of those that can't fight, our's and there's get them to the refuge on the mountain. Then have all fighters go to the eastern boarder to fight off the Teletubies, Ed and I will take a quad of are best fighters and rescue Kira and Roy." Pipit nodded and ran off. Then Krit looked at Ed and said, "You had better be a good fighter, cause were about to take on an army of freakish monkeys with snow shovels."

"Sounds like fun."

"Oh it will be," they waited there until four foxes came to them. Two red, one white and one black. "Ed I want you to meet Nesbit and Niven," she pointed to the two red foxes, "and this is Dreamweaver," she patted the white one on the head. "Then last but not least Night Fire." Ed pat each one in turn.

"Now that we all know each other lets go, Kira will be mad if I let her die by the hands of a monkey that hit her with a snow shovel."

A/N: wooooh that was fun another 2am project - that is the only time that you work on it you looser. Shut the hell up what do you know your just the cap of f of a chocolate syrup container! Yet I am smarter than you, how dose it feel to have no brain power? Oh you are going to die! I am a peace of plastic you can't hurt me. Fuck you . . . . . . Anyway thanks for reading chapter 7 will be up soon -
