Yuki was in the Gupi Forest. She was almost at the end of it, about to collide with the Gupi Forest City.

It wouldn't be too long. It was getting close to night-time. She could see the city, coming into view.

She turned around, hoping no one was following her. Was it her, or did it seem like she was being followed?

She shook her head. Of course she wasn't! Just a normal check over the shoulder. No abnormal paranoia.

Yuki strode on, holding her head and tail high. As she continued, she felt wind slide past her ear. Ominous. She thought, and swiftly turned around.

"Agh!" Yuki heard someone squeak behind her. It was a dude following her.

"Stalker!" Yuki snarled. She swung her paw at the tom, but he dodged and she missed.

"What are you doing?" the tom snapped. "It's me. Oh-- That's right. I forgot to tell you. My name is Nisshoku. I was the one that told you and your sister about Plague."

Yuki growled. "There was nothing suspicous about them."

Nisshoku shrugged. "What you up to? Except for standing around, being cute and stuff."

Yuki blushed, taken aback. "It's none of your business. Leave, Stalker."

"Oh-kay," Nisshoku said with a sigh. "You just stay single for me, okay? I'll see you again." Nisshoku melted into the ground, gone. He's a Jelly! she thought. Jellies could do that.

Yuki rolled her eyes, Nisshoku had just wasted precious seconds of her life.

Continuing on, she walked towards the sound of the sea, to Korosu Island specifically.

"What a stalker," Yuki muttered. She walked on, stirring with mixed emotions. She still couldn't belive she cried in front of Disease! He probably thinks I'm a cry-baby! Yuki would have to prove him wrong.

She'd do that by killing him.

~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~

It was a long, paw-aching journey. But she'd made it to Korosu Island. Or at least what was left of it. It looked terrible! Like it had been exploded with salt nukes!

She wasn't on Korosu Island, though. She was at the shore, staring at it in an akward position. Frozenjaw's and Overbite's scent was faintly where she stood. They must've done this! she thought, grinding her teeth.

Turning around, she almost collided with Vomit.

"Yuki!" Vomit cried. "It's so great to see you!"

"It's great to see you, too," Yuki said, looking for Plague. "Where's Plague?"

"Why?"

"I need to talk to him."

"Can that wait? We need to find a new base. A good hideout."

"That'll take forever!"

"Learn patience."

"Ugh, fine.Take me to him and the others."

"Oh, and one more thing. About Kazan..."

"What is it?" Yuki felt a twinge of concern.

"He was stuck in the Endless Chasm, and --you won't believe this-- he climbed out! Yeah, right out the way we fell in. Isn't that insane? It took him like.... Forever! Let's go, now. Kazan has a good idea for a base."

~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~

Kazan was leading the way. Plague was behind him, with a blank and distant gaze. The line went on, Techno, Headless, Vomit, Jaaku, Jikan, and then Yuki. Sakujo wasn't any where to be seen, though.

"Stop!" Kazan suddenly hissed, throwing up his tail straight up in alarm.

Yuki stopped, and all fell silent. Faintly, Yuki could hear... Frozenjaw!

"Why do I have to look for Plastic? Can't Disease use his lazy rump to find him? All me and Plastic do is discord!" Frozenjaw was muttering.

Yuki noticed him pop out of the bushes, and look surprised to see Kazan and the others.

"Oh," Frozenjaw mewed. "Hi guys! Good evening. Very nice to see you... All of you." Yuki was almost scared to death to see Frozenjaw with a robotic side. There was a robotic voice behind Frozenjaw's real one.

"Are you serious?" Plague snapped, coming up nose-to-nose with Frozenjaw. "You think you can walts right up to us after ditching us and pretty much betraying us?"

"Yeah," Frozenjaw said, smiling. "Mean like, we're all friends, right?"

"Choose which side your on!" Plague snapped.

"You guys' side, definetly," Frozenjaw said. "It's not like I have a life and stuff on Disease's side. Nothing. Not like I have a rival, crush, undying loyalty.... Yeah. Not much."

"We don't trust you," Plague growled. "You're our prisoner."

Plague signalled for Headless and Vomit grab Frozenjaw, and so they did. Frozenjaw strangely cooperated.

They continued on, keeping Frozenjaw in an unescapable circle of kitsune. Yuki slid through, and fell in step with Frozenjaw.

"Did Disease send you here?" Yuki hissed at him.

"Uh... Well, yes and no. Yes, he sent me out in the forest to find someone that's not you. And, no, he didn't send me for you guys. Honest," Frozenjaw said.

"What's Disease up to?" Yuki asked, narrowing her eyes to sharp and intimidating slits.

"Well... He's tearing this she-cats paws off and ripping her eyes out.... Okay, that sounded more violent then I intended it to. Um, well, he's doing it for good intentions!" Frozenjaw meowed.

What? That's... Cruel! "Why--?!"

Yuki was cut off as Kazan screeched, "We're here!"
