Chapter 2:

Kaito and Mizki arrived at a small gap of trees and stopped in the middle. Both of them still had their animal ears, so they could hear very acutely. There was rustling in the nearby undergrowth and a small blonde boy ran right in the clearing at full speed. The boy noticed Kaito and tried to skid to a stop, only resulting in him falling. Kaito stepped towards the boy and clasped his hand, pulling him towards Kaito's chest. The boy made a small squeak and he grasped onto some of the material in Kaito's yukata.
The boy looked up, blushed and mumbled, "I-I am so very sorry. I didn't notice you there at first." Kaito looked the boy in the eyes, causing said boy's face to become all the more flushed and he thought 'Oh, today must be my lucky day!'
Kaito smiled down at the boy and said, in a soft voice, "That is okay, just try to watch what is in front of you next time. You might not be lucky enough to have a person near you that can sustain both their own weight as well as yours"

Kaito smiled when the boy's face turned more crimson 'So cute' he thought before he asked, "May I ask you of your name?"
"M-me? Umm. I-I guess. W-well, m-my name is Len, Kagamine Len. Can I get yours?" Len stuttered as he became more flushed.
Kaito's smile grew as he ignored Mizki's glare and he replied to Len, "My name is Kaito and this lady's name is Mizki."
Len mumbled something that was too quiet for Kaito to hear, even with his acute hearing, seconds before a girl, that looked very much like Len, came running through the surrounding undergrowth screaming, "OMG, Len! There you are! Do you have any idea how worried I was that you got mauled by a bear or something? Oh. Who's this?"
"Oh, uh, th-this is Kaito-san, Rin. I. I almost ran into him and started to fall, but luckily he caught me," Len replied to the overly obnoxious girl. Len smiled slightly towards this girl.
Kaito smiled and said, to the girl, "Hello, madam, I am going to guess that your name is Rin-san, just like this young lad said"
Rin stared at Kaito and growled, "I don't trust you. Anyways, why the hell are you holding onto my brother in such a possessive manner?" Rin's stare turned into a death glare.
"You are his sister? Well, like he said earlier he started to fall and I caught him. Also, he does not seem to mind being in my arms," Kaito stated as he smiled down at Len, "The only ones who seem to mind are you and Mizki"

"Len! Why in the world do you let him touch you? You should have swatted him away the moment he caught you! You just met him! Do you trust him? Or worse do you like him?" Rin snapped at Len.
Len started squirming and Kaito let him go. Len walked up to Rin and said in a low voice, "He told me him name, and I believe him, so why would I not trust him? Plus he was just helping me and I do k-kinda think I might l-like him in that way," Len's face was adorned with a blush by the end on his words.
"Tsk, so typical" Rin grumbled towards her brother.
Mizki exhaled deeply, causing everyone to look her way. "Why does Kaito get a head start? He is not even hu…" Mizki started to exclaim as Kaito slid behind her and covered her mouth with his one hand, softly making a "shh" noise to silence her.

The bow atop of Rin's head lifted as she thought popped up inside of her mind. "Hey, Kaito, Mizki, I've never seen you guys around here before! Are the two of you by chance travelers or something?" Rin asked.
"Oh, yeah we are travelers! Sorry I didn't say before! I kind of got a bit distracted by someone," Mizki explained as she glanced at Kaito, indicating for him to continue the act.
"Oh yeah. I forgot. Uh, we do not really know how long we are going to stay around here. So do the either of you two know of a place that two travelers can stay?" Kaito requested as he blushed in shame.
Len's eyes lit up as he declared, "You guys can stay at our house, right Rin?"
"I guess they can stay at our place. It seems as though those two are together anyways, so they shouldn't mind sharing a room and you and I share the other" Rin decided.
Mizki and Kaito looked at each other and moved as far apart as they could without leaving the clear. Mizki laughed slightly. "Me mates with him? That'd never happen even if we were the last two mutts on Earth!" Mizki exclaimed in pure disgust, not clueing in what she called them.
"Since Mizki and I are obviously not mates and I would assume that you and Len are not mates, being that you are kin, would it not make more sense if you, Rin, and Mizki share a room while Len and I share the other?" Kaito suggested, specifying that he and Mizki were not in a relationship.

Rin looked over at Len, to see what he thought, and he shamefully said, "Sorry, Rin, but I kinda agree with Kaito-san," Len smiled with a blush shown on his face.
Rin sent a death glare in Len's direction. "Oh, you are so going to die, Len. Die to death" she said in a low voice that did not seem possible for her normally high voice.
Len looked down to the ground and stuttered, "I-I'm sorry, R-Rin"
"U-um, is death not a synonym of die?" Kaito asked in question during the rumble.
Rin laughed mockingly. "You're real funny, wolf" Rin said with a smug smirk adorning her facial features.
Kaito and Mizki both flinched. "W-wolf? What do you by chance mean?" Kaito stuttered, mentally hoping that she didn't know what he was. Rin started at them with a slightly confused, questioning expression.

"Sorry, Rin calls men who suggest staying in a room with me a wolf. It's a really bad habit of her's and I am so very sorry for her confusing you" Len explained hoping to dissolve any confusion that sprouted.
The two canines sighed in relief. "Oh, thank goodness! I thought that someone had figured us out, Kai!" Mizki whispered in Kaito's ear as she has slinked back to Kaito's side.
Kaito looked at her a tad bit confused and he exclaimed, "Kai, nee? Never been called that one before! Everyone in my clan was always too afraid to give me a nickname. It had me saddened, since all the other pups would play together calling each other funny names, but I was always left out of that stuff. My mother always said I had expectation to live up to. Being that I would be the next alpha in the pack."
"You, alpha? I never thought of or even herd of a to-be-alpha falling in love with, nature's predator, a human! A human boy to be exact!" Mizki coughed in hysterics. Len and Rin were staring at the older 'couple' confused and dumbfound.

"Hey, Kaito! Come here for a second!" Rin yelled at Kaito. He looked over at her confused, but approached her anyways.
"Yes?" he asked, bent over slightly since Rin seemed to want to talk to him in slight privacy.
"Will you answer a question that has been bugging me since my brother was in your arms?" Rin stated.
"Uh, it all depends on what the question is. I guess I'll try to answer it" Kaito replied.
Rin smirked. "You have a thing for my brother, don't you?" Rin requested with her smirk turned into a sickened smile, "Well, answer me!"
"Uh, what exactly makes you think that?" Kaito replied to her question.
Rin's smile turned into a look of pure disgust. "Knew it. There's only one reason why anybody would suggest that members of the same sex sleep in the same room"
"And that is?"
"They want to sleep with Len. In simpler words, that your idiotic brain that should be able to get, they wanna bang Len, get in his pants, have sex with him, whatever you would call it!"
Kaito looked at the blonde girl confused. "Why would I wish to mate with Len-san without both of your acceptance? I do not really know about Mizki, but I am surely not that type of dog!" Kaito exclaimed without even realizing that he referred to himself and Mizki as dogs.
Mizki walked pulled Kaito away from Rin and smacked him upside the head grumbling, "You idiot! Luka-san might not give me another chance at being human!"
"Sorry" Kaito whimpered.

Len walked in between the canines' mini-brawl and pleaded, "Please don't fight! I seriously don't care what you guys are! You could really be a fish for all I care! I invited you to stay at my house and I will keep my invitation" Len turned towards Rin and added in a much colder tone, "Oh, and Rin, you don't need to always go all Nazi on every person that suggests a smart idea that involves me in it. You do know I can fend for myself, right? So if Kaito-san were to attempt to rape me, I could easily hurt him! I do know the masculine body more than you, Rin"
"S-sorry" Rin whimpered.

Len walked up to Kaito and Mizki and took both of their hands, smiling. "So, how about we go home?" he asked in happier, chipper tone. Kaito smiled down at the younger boy, Len's smile broadened, and Mizki slipped her own hand out of the boy's grasp, causing his attention to shift to her.
"I think I will walk to your home with Rin-san, you can walk with Kaito, okay?" Mizki said in a soft, slightly saddened, voice.
Len looked up at her, slightly concerned, and replied, "Okay, Mizki-chan"

Mizki walked back to Rin, with her head slightly drooped. "You okay?" Rin asked, cocking her head slightly to the side.
Mizki raised her gaze to Rin's. "Yeah, I guess I'm okay." Mizki answered the younger female.
"Are you sure? I would feel absolutely terrible if I saw the person that I was in love with look at my friend with love in their eyes and yet look at me like just any other girl!"
"Okay, you are right. I am not all the good. I… I don't feel good at all. I feel this odd feeling in my chest like there is a volcano erupting inside of me!"
"We call that jealousy, Mizki" Rin informed Mizki as though she was telling younger child.
"O-oh, okay."

"Um, Rin, can I ask you of something?" Mizki asked sincerely.
"Oh sure! What so ya wanna ask?" Rin replied, smiling up at the older female.
"Um, seeing that Len-san seems to really like wolfy, I-I mean Kaito, can I please be allowed to live at your place? I want to stay human!" Mizki yowled as she wept.
Rin looked at Mizki slightly startled before asking, "You and Kaito aren't human, are you?"
Mizki wiped her tears and gasped. "H-how did you know?"
Rin laughed slightly. "Well, my first clue was that you called the two of you 'mutts' when I suggested you stay in the same room. My second, well it was how the two of you reacted when I called Kaito 'wolf'. The third was when Kaito said that he's 'not that type of dog'. Fourth, when you called Kaito 'wolfy' and finally, hmm, it was just now when you pleaded to stay human!" Rin listed out every time she heard either canine state that they were just that, canine.

Rin looked up at Mizki and questioned, "So, I am going to guess that Kaito is a wold, but what the hell are you?"
"U-um, I-I am a fox… Also you are partially right with wolfy… He's not exactly a wolf, but he is an Ookami" Mizki nervously proclaimed.
Rin blinked… Then, she blinked again. "So you're saying that Kaito is a wolf god?" Rin asked raising her pitch on the word 'god'.
"Um, yes?"
Rin laughed. "Well Len better feel lucky! He has a god pretty much wrapped around his thin, girly, little finger!" Rin exclaimed s she looked up ahead of them towards the two boys. They were holding hands, looking at one another, lovingly.

"Ha ha, I haven't seen Len look so happy in a long time. Since our parents passed to be exact" Rin said solemnly, with a downcast gaze and a frown.
"You're parents passed?" Mizki asked in much concern.
"Yeah, but we're all good!" Rin replied as she smiled at the vixen.
The two girls turned their attention back to the boys walking in front of them and they saw Kaito say something, causing Len to majorly blush, and Kaito to wholeheartedly laugh.
Rin grinned and she declared, "Hey, I wanna know why Len blushed, so how about we go ruin their little conversation?" Mizki nodded her head franticly, encouraging Rin to yell, "Hey, Len! Wait up!"
Len made a small squeak and tightened his grip on Kaito arm/hand. "I-I have a feeling that my lovely sister decided to barge in on our conversation, since you made me blush" Len mumbled as his blush reddened slightly and he pouted.

Rin ran up to the boys and glomped them, pushing the males closer together. Len's blush increased and Kaito laughed slightly. He wrapped his arm around the boy's waist and said in a low seductive voice, "Why, hello, Len" he smirked as Len's blush spread from his one ear to the other.
'How did wolfy get the boy's love so quickly?' Mizki thought as she felt, her newly discovered, jealousy raise.
"Hey, wolfy! Can you please leave those two alone for a second? I have a question I would like to ask you" Mizki stated in a loud voice. Kaito looked at Mizki, over Rin's head, and nodded his head slightly.
"Uh, sure, Mizki" Kaito replied. He let go of Len, slipped out of Rin's hold on him, and walked towards Mizki. "What would you like to ask?"
"How did you do it?" Mizki asked Kaito, looking a little bit annoyed.
"How did I do what, Mizki?" Kaito responded in slight confusion.
"How did you win his heart in the first few hours, idiot!" Mizki roared, causing Kaito to wince back.
"Oh… Um, well, I, uh, just kind of followed Luka-san's advice… I think it was more of because I caught him when he was falling! It is not entirely my fault that he likes me more than you! N-not that I am saying that I do not particularly like that, it is just that I do not like getting blamed for something that I did not do!" Kaito whined towards the enraged fox.

Kaito turned his attention back to the twins ahead of him, he saw as Len stumbled on a tree root and was starting to fall. Len's momentum sent him plummeting towards the ground, Kaito ran forward and grabbed the boy. Having used too much force to reach the boy Kaito started to fall, he moved Len slightly, so as to not injure him, as he curled his own body around the boy's. Kaito did multiple flips and landed perfectly on his hind legs with Len still in his arms, Len was majorly flushed.
Rin laughed slightly as she started clapping. "Th-that was awesome, Kaito! I don't know how you did it, but that just took my breath away! I… I-I, I give you my approval! In other words, Kaito, I grant you permission to do whatever my brother with let you to him!" Rin exclaimed sounding taken aback.
Kaito gained the largest, goofiest grin across his facial features. "So, if Len wants, I can mate with him?" Kaito asked in complete happiness. Rin rolled her eyes and sighed, but she also nodded her head causing Kaito's grin to turn from goofy into plane out creepy as he made a small shrill shriek. He looked down at the boy and noticed that he was unconscious, his grin disappeared instantly, replaced by a slight frown. Rin walked up to the boys, cocked her head to the side and looked at Len, seeing that he fainted.
"Well, since Len did partially insist on sharing his room with you, Kaito, when we get to the house, I'll show you to him room." Rin said in a stern tone. Kaito nodded his head slightly and then the group headed off for the twins' house.

That's the end of this chapter! So I hope you will continue reading and I will say again!

Please R&R!

Well, baibai for now my pretties! *waves with a grin on face*
