Sorry that the last chapter was so short. This one's a lot longer.

"You're a +anima?" Husky asked Cooro's attacker.

"So what if I am?!?" he screamed. "That kid sneaked into my cave!"

"Whoa…you're a girl?" asked Cooro, removing his head from the folds of Husky's shirt.

"Yeah - what's is to you?" she said. "Now, kid, you're gonna learn what happens when you sneak into my cave! Yaa!" She ran at Cooro with hen knife, but Husky defended Cooro with his staff. The two began to fight.

Back at the camp, Nana wakes up, wondering where Cooro and Husky have gone. When she uses her bat ears, she can hear the fight in the distance.

"Senri, wake up!" she yells. Senri rouses, and notices that the boys are gone.

"Cooro. Husky." he says. Nana grabs him and runs off to the fight.

Meanwhile, Husky is able to disarm the girl. He readies himself for an attack, but suddenly, the girl does something no one expects. She emits this blinding glow just as Nana and Senri rush into the clearing. Husky stumbles back, temporarily blinded by the glow, Nana and Cooro run to hide behind Senri, and Senri just stands there, unblinking.

"Shiny," he says, mesmerized by the glow.

"Okay, Okay, I submit! You can stop that now!" yelled Husky. The girl stopped glowing. Then she started walking towards Cooro. But before she reaches him, Senri steps between them with his bear claw out. The girl stops in surprise.

"You're a +anima too?" she asked. Senri nodded. Then she turned to the rest of them. "What about all of you?"

"We're all +anima," said Cooro, stepping out from behind Senri. "I'm Cooro, a crow anima, that's Senri, and this is Husky and Nana. He's a fish and she's a bat "

"My name is Soline," she said, "and I'm an angel +anima. I think."

The 4 +anima invited Soline to their campsite. They told her their stories about how they became +anima. Well, Nana and Cooro had to tell Senri's story, due to the fact that he was watching birds fry by the whole time. After they were finished, Soline told them her story.

"I come from a village called Kelmen," she began. "In Kelmen, there is a diamond mine, where my father worked as a miner. One day, I went to the mines, to give him a message from my mother. I did not know that he was not there that day, but out at the tavern, because he and the miners had been given the day off.

"When I entered the mine, all was quiet. I started walking into the mine, thinking he was further back in. But at the end of the mine, I found not my father, but instead found Harper, the drunken man of the village. In a rage, for reasons unknown, he began to chase after me, and I ran for the mine entrance. But he was a fast man, and I a slow girl. At that moment, I absorbed the anima of a cheetah."

"A cheetah?" Cooro interrupted, but was silenced by an elbow in the ribs from Husky. Soline continued.

"Unfortunately, I was so shocked by this transformation that I tripped, and a second later, Harper was upon me, and stabbed me with a knife."

"Exactly what happened next, I do not know for sure. But I believe this is what happened: The anima, which killed me instead of saving me, changed into an angel anima, the only anima that could preserve my soul. Harper was shock when I rose in this form, with white wings and shining like the sun, that he ran from me. In revenge, I blinded him, and then left Kelmen. I have been in hiding for a month now, unsure of what to do with my life."

"Why don't you come with us?" said Cooro. "We can help you."

"I'm not sure you want to do that," said Solina

"Why not?" asked Nana.

"Because," she said, "I'm wanted by the research facility."
