Kira is spending time with Kage and the team here, just talking and talking with him.
I don't own "Super Robot Monkey Team Hyper Force Go!", but I wish I did.
Beep, beep, beep, beep…
Kira shot up out of her lying position, and turned to turn off her alarm clock. The clock read 6:30 in the morning, as usual, and Kira smiled. "Good morning!" she cried out cheerfully, seemingly to no one. Kira bounded out of bed to get dressed, and a dark, swift shadow followed closely behind her.

Kira smiled as she walked out of her room. 'Ok, first I need to clean-up, then I can watch the early anime block,' she thought as she walked down the hallway. As she continued down to the main room, a large shadow followed behind her.
As she reached the main room, Kira smiled as she saw there wasn't much to be done. At first when she started this habit, she had more to clean than just the main room, but she quickly found out where NOT to clean. The others' rooms(that was just common sense), the vehicles(she had been cleaning in one of the Fist Rockets, accidentally fired a missile, and said missile went into the water surrounding Shuggazoom City), Gibson's lab(she was almost hurt by a chemical that Gibson was working with), and the kitchen(everyone cleaned after themselves). So out of all the places within the Robot, she only had the main room to clean, what little there was to ACTUALLY clean.
Kira took out a broom and started to sweep, oblivious to the large shadow currently behind her, and starting to seep to the floor. As Kira finished sweeping(there wasn't that much to do, remember?), she saw something move out of the corner of her eye, and turned around to see the shadow on the floor.
"Kage!" she cheered as the shadow formed into a more solid, cat-shape. Kage sat in front of Kira as she knelt down to his level. Kira smiled as she said "Thanks for keeping me company. I usually do my morning routine alone, but it was nice to feel your presence today." Kage looked up at his owner and said one thing.
"Meow."
*TRANSITION: 3 HOURS LATER*
At breakfast, Kira sat at the table as she was about to eat.
"Meow."
Kira looked down to see Kage sitting at her feet and flicking his tails in anticipation. "Oh, you want something to eat?" Kira said smiling down at the cat. Kage's response was to stand on his hind legs and place his front paws. "Ok, here you go," Kira said. She pulled a chunk of her own shadow off and formed it in the shape of a mouse. Kira moved it around with her hand as she watched Kage chase after the shadow mouse. "Um, Kira? I don't think Kage needs to eat. I mean, he is a shadow," Chiro said. "He's a shadow being, Chiro. He's a living entity, so he does need to eat," Kira said. "Actually, shadows in general have their own varying awareness…" Kira said as Kage finally clamped his jaws around the shadow mouse. "However, I can't create any shadows with any kind of awareness, so the ones I use are more like objects than actual beings," Kira said as she watched Kage eat the shadow mouse.
"Or, they can be easy prey for a shadow being," Kira said gesturing to the cat. "O…k, I get that, I think," Chiro said. "But what about your shadow, or the ones you use while fighting?" Nova asked, the rest of the team invested in the conversation now. Kira looked up as Kage jumped into her lap. "My shadow is tied to myself, I can't get rid of it, it's really hard to a find a place where there are no shadows. Anyway, I can part with a small part of my shadow, mostly because my shadow won't have a permanent chunk in it, it's a shadow! But when I use my shadow to defend myself from an attack, it doesn't hurt, but it's like… wearing down my stamina. If I use my Shadow Dome, it looks like it's cracking, but the shadow that makes it up is just losing its solid shape. My shadow is nothing but a part of me in a way, so it's just going back to the way it was," Kira said as she stroked Kage.
"The other shadows I use are from objects, so their shadows don't have a lot of awareness separately. It's just like borrowing them and promising to give them back," Kira said. "Wait, what do ya mean by their "awareness"?" Sprx asked. "Yes, I'm curious as well," Antauri said. "It's impossible for such a thing to be possible! Shadows, having awareness?" Gibson said skeptically. "I can't tell you that," Kira said. "Why not? Is it something bad?" Otto asked. "It's just that, I can't explain it. You would have to have abilities like mine to understand it. I can't put it into words, at least not ones that would explain it a whole bunch," Kira said.
"Well, why don't you just say the words that can at least explain it a little bit?" Nova suggested. "Ok! I guess the words I would use are 'consuming', 'whispers', 'faded', 'varying', and 'yin', or at least those are a few," Kira said. The rest of the team blinked as they sweat-dropped. Kira then went back to her breakfast, and the rest of the morning was quiet.

Kira was walking to a bakery with Kage at her side. Sure, Kira liked to cook and bake, but she still liked to go somewhere else to try other treats and gain an interest through how to make said treats. The bakery was still a little far away, and Kira couldn't go through the large vacant lot she usually went through to get to it, so she went around. Suddenly, a support beam broke, causing it to fall in the direction of an oblivious Kira. However, Kage saw it, his eyes widening as he saw it.
Kira was surprised when she was tackled from behind, but shocked when she saw the support beam and who had tackled her. It was a very large cat, taller than her, that looked like it was formed by moving wisps of shadows, even the white parts of its "fur" it had. Its tails were large and long, with what looked like light gray shadows formed to look like smoke coming off of them. The cat had piercing ice-blue eyes, and a stud earring with a diamond prism attached to it. "K-Kage? Is that you?" Kira said as the large cat sat back on its hind legs. The large cat nudged her as the girl smiled. "It IS you!" Kira said as she threw her hands around Kage's neck. Kage purred as he was embraced, and Kira opened her eyes as she felt something around his neck.
"What's this?" Kira asked as she moved her hand around his neck and under whatever it was around Kage's neck. It was a silver chain, and at the middle of it was a silver pendant that looked like a flame with blue shards of gems within it. "Oh, wow. What's this, Kage?" Kira asked. Kage turned his head, gently taking it from her grasp. "Oh… Well, I guess it doesn't matter, does it? If you don't wanna tell me, I won't ask!" Kira said throwing her arms around him. Kage blinked in surprise as he shrunk back to his smaller size, causing Kira to be holding him up. "Come on," the girl said as she set him down. "Let's go to that bakery! I want to try their melopan!" Kira said cheerfully as the girl and her cat walked on.
I'm going to leave you guys on that note, and no, none of these Kira chapters are filler. And even if it was, is that so bad? I always thought that the show could use episodes to breathe and not have any Skeleton King threats to deal with. But that's just me ;3
