~Tori's POV~

It's been a month since we told the Akatsuki of our issue of human transformation, but our problems are behind us…..and on our heads…

A few days ago we had soon realized that we HAD to go back to our reality or we could be in serious trouble. For instance; us girls had woken up to a weird sensations. Not even sure as to what it was we left it alone and forgot about it. A week after that I was shaken awake in a frantic manner. It was Unique who had been more secluded and quiet than normal; she had shaken me awake to point out an important issue. Turns out that night our problems had just started. Everyone had visible traits from their animal sides.

Unique had a distinct grey tail.

Courtney had thick black whiskers (weird I know).

Arianna had gained ears had eyes of a lioness.

Zarina now had ears and a tail….

Though I had gained the biggest change of all: I had wings.

Though that wasn't the end of it. We had all continued to change every week. Carman had secretly returned several times to tell us of the help she was receaving and the help that was soon coming for us but she was having problems of her own. Like us she was changing but was also at that time of year the (.) which really sucked…

Carman had found William the day she left, luckily and was discussing the situation over with the other Shinobe. Unique was still on the cold side but was slowly warming up to the creepy group. Though if Hidan was near, her cheery (not even) mood would vanish and she would scurry off to the corner. I swear that corner is carved with the words "Unique's Corner."

What I thought was weird though, was the fact she didn't mind the blue shark man… Oh well this is Unique. She has this fear of men for some odd reason, one she won't even tell us about. I was playing with my feathers weirdly unsure of what else I could do.

The Akatsuki had let us out of that cell a week ago and all I do for the time being is sit on a high ledge in the cave and play with the multicolored feathers on my back. I looked down trying to see where my friends were but instead saw my talk buddy coming up this way. Deidara had officially become my talk buddy, and for some reason he's always nice to me, and then he starts talking about blowing stuff up. I just talk about my love for fire. But today was different.

My instincts were freaking out and I felt really worried and depressed, and from what I had seen of friends earlier….

Something is wrong.

Something terribly wrong is going to happen….

And I have a feeling it has to do with us in general.

~Kiba's POV~

Carman was speaking with that weird boy and keeping Akamaru busy while I had spoken with to the hokage again, reporting the news Carman had brought back. She had already told us of her and her friend's conclusion about what was happening to them.

Carman was told of the mysterious person who had been looking for them and it was confirmed that person was to be kept away from the girls. I was assigned to watch over the animal girl until further notice but the only problem I had with this situation was the fact that she had to use my house to stay. I had finished speaking to the hokage and returned back to my house tailed by Carman and Akamaru. Carman seemed down; she seemed majorly depressed and hasn't said a word all day. Akamaru had for some reason stayed there by her all day. If I didn't know better I would say death was hanging over her head.

~?'s POV~

This was it, all I needed now was the DNA of one of those girls and my plans will be complete! Not hair, not saliva, I need them! One will do for now and then I can rule the best of both worlds!

I looked towards the pool bubbling in an eerie purple glow. And finally with my sad exuse for an evil smile, I threw my hands towards the air. A chanted spell and a few natural ingredients I have finished mixing I was ready to find those girls.

"Raise my minions! Go retrieve the girls with foretold powers! Find me those animals! Find me….. My idiot daughter…"

Cool so I'm trying to be quicker and since summer is just around the bend i will finally have more time to thinkl and type.
