Coming to

Baron was pacing the sitting area where the group had returned to, waiting for Haru to re-awake. After making her as comfortable as she could; Yuki entered the sitting area and sat down on Baron's couch, hoping that once Haru awakes they could then find out what had happened. Yuki watched Baron pace back and forth, wondering if she should speak to him or not.

"I'm hungry," complained Muta; well he had gone four hours with out food.

"Muta you idiot how can you think of food at a time like this?" retorted Toto.

"Hey lay off birdbrain I haven't eaten for hours," replied Muta as his stomach grumbled.

"Muta You giant marshmallow, can't you see now is not the time to be thinking about your stomach," said Toto watching Muta frown.

"Ah bite me chicken wings," replied Muta turning to look at Toto shaking his paw at him.

"Can't you tell the difference between a crow and a chicken?" asked Toto spreading his wings.

"At least I don't have a birdbrain," retorted Muta standing up as if getting ready to strike.

"You already called me Birdbrain, you idiot," said Toto keeping his eyes on the now mobile marshmallow.

"Oh yeah well go fry yourself..." replied Muta be fore he was cut off by an angry yell.

"ENOUGH! Can't you two go one day with out arguing! And at a time like this with Miss Haru..." trailed of Baron looking in the direction of the room that Haru was resting in.

"We're sorry Baron," replied Muta and Toto simultaneously with the heads down.

Baron tensed as a hand was placed on his shoulder, turning he found that the hand or rather paw belonged to none other then Queen Yuki.

"Baron I know you're worried about Haru, we all are. We all want to find this monster that hurt Haru, but we can't do that if you lose your head. You need to be strong... For Haru's sake." Said Queen Yuki in a calm voice, turning at the end of her speech to look at the room her dear friend lay in.

Baron looked around suddenly feeling ashamed of himself for blowing up like that.

"You're right Yuki" turning to look at Toto and Muta he said "I'm sorry for yelling at you like that, I know this has been a hard day for all of us..." again trailing off at the end looking towards the room preoccupied by the young brunette.

Muta and Toto shared a worried glance before too looking in the direction of the room housing their young friend. No one moved or said anything until a knock directed their attention to the door. Stiffening at the sound they all nodded to each other and prepared to fight this mysterious caller to protect their young friend. Baron nodded to Muta silently telling him to open the door, Muta obliged and let out a sigh of relief before moving out of the way, showing all those gathered in the bureau the figure of young King Lune.

"Lune!" cried Yuki running towards him "What are you doing here?" she asked curious as to the answer of her question.

"Dear, I came here to see if you were all right. You were supposed to be back hours ago," replied Lune letting out a sigh a relief at the knowledge that his wife was safe. Looking towards the clock to discover that the time was now five o'clock, Yuki turned back towards her husband to explain all that had happened during her visit.

"Oh dear I do hope Miss Haru will be ok, who would do such a thing? And to her of all people," replied Lune after listening to Yuki's explanation, he could feel his blood boil at the thought of someone hurting Haru, turning to look at his wife he could see that she too felt her blood boil at the thought of such a foul action.

While all this was going on Haru had started to stir, returning to the land of the living once more. She froze, looking around the unknown surroundings before gaining the courage to sit up to get a better look. Hearing voices outside she let out the breath she hadn't realized she had been holding. Yuki and Lune's voices filled her ears assuring her that she was safe. Searching through her memories trying to figure out how she had got here, she triggered a dormant memory.

Flash back

She was sitting in her kitchen, attempting to fill in a crossword puzzle when suddenly she heard a banging on her window. Thinking it was Muta asking for a midnight snack she turned to the window only to see a pair of yellow eyes staring back at her...

End flash back

Blinking away them memory Haru turned to the door, when suddenly she remembered what had happened. She felt her cheeks turn red at the thought of passing out in front of her friends before letting out a groan of embarrassment, catching the attention of all those outside causing them to barge in to the room.

"Haru!..."
