Juria and June came soon after the girls had started to play cards with Hana (I shortened it!) claiming also to be bored. Hanajima had won every game and Usagi just gave up and sat looking around for the others and cheered on whoever's winning.
Usagi soon got a worried expression on her face and whispered something in Hanajima's ear. Saki pointed to the right and Usagi walked that way. More and more people from the run were lining up to play cards so the other girls with the exception of Saki went with her. When they finally caught up with her she had stopped right in her tracks.
"Usagi? Is something wrong?" June asked with a concerned look plastered on her face.
"Not really, I was just waiting for you guys to catch up and I was trying to listen," Usagi said seriously.
"What are ya listening to?" Zumi asked coming up next to her. Before Usagi could answer, Momiji ran towards them looking behind him and ran into Usagi. There were 2 familiar sounds that were heard and the girls groaned.
POOF!
POOF!
A yellow bunny and a black wolf with clothes loosely hanging on to them were in Momiji's and Usagi's spots when the smoke cleared.
"Momiji! You've gotta watch where you're going," Usagi scolded as she tried to gather up her clothes in her mouth.
"Gomen, but it was really scary Usagi!!!!" Momiji, as a bunny, whined as he clung to her leg. Just then a roar sounded off and there were screams accompanying it.
"What was that Momiji?" Juria asked cautiously as she slowly backed away. Usagi sniffed the air, her eyes turned into slits, and the usual blue color they had turned gold and wild. A low, growl eminated from her throat as she got into a defensive position and slowly made her way towards the creator of the sound; they watched intently as Usagi's completely bipolar attitude kicked in and took control.
"What. did. she. smell?" Kimi asked breathing deeply between words.
"I guess it was the girl Zumi threw into the air this morning. She became a bear after she started to flirt with Yuki, Haru and Kyo. She had pulled Kyo close to her and they both transformed and she attacked us and I don't remember who's bleeding or not but Haru told me to go run for help. I didn't know that you guys were here and now there's a HUGE bear, a cat and two VERY scared boys down there," Momiji said calmly until he realized what was going to happen next and bounded after Usagi. He stopped when he made it to the top of the hill where the wolf was, just watching the bear getting closer and closer and closer still to the bleeding boys and the orangey-red stained cat. Usagi's eyes were back to blue and she looked worried.
"Usagi! Don't just sit there! DO SOMETHING!" Kimi yelled as she looked on as the bear advanced on the guys.
"Why don't you?! I don't know what I was thinking of anymore, I lost my train of thought…" Usagi said looking up at the girls and the bunny. June was getting very impatient at this time and took the wolf's muzzle into her hands and thrust it into the bear's direction.
"Let me spell it out for you in terms you'll understand! BEAR," she pointed Usagi's head at the bear, "Plus Yuki and them" points to Yuki, "Equals ROAD KILL!" she screamed as she pulled the animal's muzzle toward her own face and the wolf's eyes turn gold again.
Growling, Usagi almost bit June to get out of her grasp and jumped on the bear biting its ear in the process dragging it away from the guys. She let go and stood in front of them protectively growling with her teeth bared. The bear stood up and made a swipe for her, but completely missed, the second time though, Usagi wasn't expecting it and was thrown into the nearby wall with a pained yelp. The bear thought she was down for the count and resumed advancing, getting ready to strike, until she got hit in the face by a flipper. The bear turned to see a penguin laughing at her.
"HA! Didn't see that coming did ya?!" the penguin laughed as she bear growled at her. The grizzly made a swipe for June (the penguin) and missed. She went after the penguin a second time and was bitten in the paw by a cheetah and a lion. She threw them off of her and saw that the other animals didn't look like they were going to attack her. She then saw a puff of smoke and Kyo was standing there kinda naked, but getting dressed. The bear made a lunge to get to them but was stopped by the wolf biting the front of her neck. She fell backward and the Usagi gnawed at her neck, hoping to draw blood. It started to flow and Usagi dodged another blow from the bear. She and Kazumi (the cheetah), Juria (the lion), and June (the penguin), stood protectively in front of their charges growling, and in June's case trying to look threatening.
The bear advanced upon them and yelled "GET OUT OF MY WAY!"
"That's ENOUGH you bitch!" Usagi screamed.
Kimi, the spotted polar bear which is a good foot taller than the grizzly, landed right in front of them growling with a smirk on her face. The grizzly launched itself at the polar, who easily clawed her away. The other animals turned to go back to see if the others were okay didn't expect the series of events that would unfold in seconds. The grizzly slipped out from under Kimi's grasp and went straight for Juria. Usagi saw the shadow of the grizzly getting closer to Juria and pushed her out of the way. There was another, louder, pained yelp coming from the dog as her wounds from the car opened up again and she was thrown to the ground. Everyone was distracted as Usagi hit the ground with a sickening thud, so the grizzly sliced Yuki and Haru with her claws and they fell to the ground in a heap. Kazumi and Juria stood in front of the fallen boys, teeth bared when suddenly the grizzly was attacked from behind. She fell to the ground and rolled over to see a panda bear behind her, obviously the one who attacked her. The panda threw the grizzly into the nearest ditch. The panda walked over on all fours to Usagi, who was limping to get to Yuki. The panda caught the wolf as she fell a few inches from the silver haired boy. He walked on two legs, holding the wolf in one arm and supporting his weight with the other.
"Where are you taking her?" Kazumi demanded from her place next to Kyo.
"Don't worry, I'll take good care of her," the panda responded in a smooth voice. He looked over to the unconscious Yuki and finished "Tell nezumi-san when he wakes up I'll have her back soon." With that, he walked off.
At another house
A boy around the age of 16 with short black hair was sitting in his living room, watching Usagi as she slept. The girl started to stir and opened her blue eyes. She blinked and looked around the room without moving from her spot. Usagi shot up like a bullet and suddenly realized that wasn't the best idea and clutched her side. The boy came over and steadied her.
"Seina? What's going on? Where's Yuki?!" she asked, exasperated and worried about the mouse. Seina, confused, brought Usagi to her feet as she straightened the borrowed pajamas she was wearing.
"Just calm down Usagi, geez, you're a nutcase when you're worried, you know that right?" Seina laughed as she stuck her tongue out and called him a baka.
"Where's Sarah?" she asked, calming down and breathing deeply.
"She went out after she got you all cleaned up and into some clothes," Seina answered. "She'll be back soon, now who's this Yuki person?" he asked with a smirk.
Usagi slowly laid down on the couch and didn't answer as she turned away from him. "I don't want to talk about it," she said as she sniffled.
Seina sighed "Now I know why the cheetah didn't want me to take you here,"
"You mean Zumi-chan?" she asked, tears stinging her eyes.
"I guess so, are you crying?" he asked, trying to look her in the eye.
"NO! now just leave me alone!" she yelled as another girl came into the room.
"Is he bothering you Usagi-san?" the girl asked with a smile
"Yes, now please REMOVE HIM Sarah-san!" Usagi said playfully as Sarah dragged Seina out of the room by his ear.
"OW! OW! OW! WHAT'D I DO?!" Seina shouted as he stumbled over himself to stop the pulling on his ear.
"Arigato Sarah-san!" Usagi shouted as Sarah waved absent-mindedly behind her, still dragging her boyfriend behind her.
