[EZEKiAL]

Scykle looked up at her, curiously. "Something the matter?" Roze frowned, as she was feeling the same thing. She stayed silent, though.

[Aura24]

Youko looked down at Scykle, "Nothing! I'm fine!" She smiled cutely.

[EZEKiAL]

He smiled back, happy to have her back by his side. He felt warm when he was with her.

Roze looked upon the two in disdain. "He's mine, Fox..." she growled.

[Aura24]

Youko's right ear flicked, hearing Roze's words. Her eyes opened into narrow purple slits, silently glaring over at Roze.

[EZEKiAL]

Roze noticed Youko staring at her, then grinned mischievously. Scykle leaped across the landscape, oblivious to the whle thing.

[Aura24]

Youko leaned down slightly and whispered to Scykle, "Hey, Scykle, be careful around that flower witch. She might be around us to pretend to be nice and goody..."

[EZEKiAL]

Scykle looked back and nodded, although he wasn't entirely sure about her. She looked at him in a way she hadn't seen anyone look at him before; it was strange.

[Aura24]

Youko then crawled down into Scykle's collar and curled up inside.

[EZEKiAL]

Scykle looked down and smiled at Youko, finally arriving back in Spring Valley. He looked around, then quickly climbed up a tree and rested on a branch. He yawned loudly, then looked down at Roze. "I'm gonna take a nap...don't try anything." Roze sighed sadly, then nodded.

"I won't, Handsome, cross my heart," she ran her finger over her considerable bust, then smiled at him. He rolled his eyes, vaguely confused, then closed them and rested.

[Aura24]

Youko was resting soundly in Scykle's collar. But then suddenly, her nose twitched as she smelled the scent of a dreamer nearby. She lifted her head, high in alert.

[EZEKiAL]

Scykle wobbled around, feeling Youko restless in his collar. "What're you doing? What's the matter?" The Nightmaren looked around, noticing Roze was gone. He jumped down from the branches, yawning and rubbing his eyes, as a tiny girl with black hair stepped through the bushes, pulling her nightgown out of some briars.

[Aura24]

Youko quickly poked her head out of Scykle's collar and staring at the girl, and again, she began shuddering at the sight of the girl. Her ears lifted up in alarm.

[EZEKiAL]

Scykle smiled at the girl; this was the second Dreamer he'd ever seen. "Why, hello there!" he said with a smile, "What's your name?" She shrieked, retreating back into the bushes quickly.

"Bad man go away! You're gonna be just like the other bad clown!" Scykle frowned, backing off a bit. Who could she have met...?

[Aura24]

Youko's ears slowly curled back, shuddering and trembling as she whimpered softly. Bit by bit, her eyes turned into a solid, glowing purple as she continued to stare at the dreamer intently...

[EZEKiAL]

Scykle shivered, feeling Youko do the same in his collar. He pulled her out, putting her on his shoulder. "My name's Scykle, little one, I promise I won't hurt you..." he said softly. She inched away from him slowly, shivering and shaking her head.

[Aura24]

Youko still shivered, but quickly wrapped all three tails around her body in order to avert her attention from the dreamer. While doing so, she comically fell off Scykle's shoulder and stumbled cutely towards the dreamer until she came to rest at her feet.

[EZEKiAL]

The little girl giggled. "Aw, cute kitty!" she squealed, picked Youko up and cuddling her. Scykle smiled with a chuckle.

"See, we're not bad, we just..." he was cut off by a glare from the girl's innocent eyes. She wanted to make it clear she DID NOT trust the clown.

[Aura24]

Youko nearly gagged when the girl picked her up and started cuddling her. "I'm not a cat, I'm a fox." She managed to say.

[EZEKiAL]

She smiled widely, "Ooh, Foxy! Just like on Dora! Hehehe! Swiper no swiping!" Scykle looked at her, confused as to what she was talking about.

[Aura24]

Youko whined softly, laying her ears back as she was held by the girl.

[EZEKiAL]

Scykle wanted to get Youko from her, but he was afraid he'd scare the girl if he got close. He could tell Youko was uncomfortable.

[Aura24]

"Okay, dreamer, you can put me down now." Youko said, squirming a little to get free.

[EZEKiAL]

The Dreamer didn't seem to hear or care what Youko said, and simply cuddled her tighter. Scykle winced, hoping Youko could restrain herself.

[Aura24]

Youko gagged again, her fur bristled in irritation and her slitted eyes opened.

[EZEKiAL]

Scykle quickly grabbed Youko from the girl, being careful not to hurt her. She squealed in fear, then anger. "Please, just settle down! I'm sorry! Kitty doesn't like to be held!"

[Aura24]

Youko shuddered, quickly crawling into Scykle's collar to get away from the dreamer.

[EZEKiAL]

Scykle stepped back from the Dreamer, who stomped toward him. "I'm not gonna let another clown bully me around! Now give me my kitty back!"

[Aura24]

Youko heard the voice of the girl and shivered. Who knew that a dreamer like the girl could be so demanding?

[EZEKiAL]

Scykle sighed, "Listen, kid, Youko doesn't like being held by anybody except me." This really got the kid going. She picked up a nearby rock and hucked it at the Nightmaren's head. He took it to the face, then growled.

"Get lost, kid!" he shouted, sending the girl running in tears. He felt bad, but she deserved it. "You okay, Youko?"

[Aura24]

Youko trembled, curling up; she didn't say a word nor responded for some reason.

[EZEKiAL]

Scykle looked after the kid, sighing heavily, then looked down at his friend, worried. She'd been acting wierd as of late...

The girl ran, sobbing, through Spring Valley. Roze floated down behind her, setting a pale hand on her shoulder as a smile spread across her face, slowly.

[Aura24]

Youko shuddered again, tossing and turning about in Scykle's collar.

[EZEKiAL]

Scykle looked down, concerned, and pulled her up and out of his collar. "What's going on, Youko?"

[Aura24]

Youko perked up and shook her head, "Nothing, nothing!"

[EZEKiAL]

Scykle sighed, glaring at her. "Whatever. Just keep your panties on next time."

[Aura24]

Youko nodded to Scykle rather quickly, still smiling innocently.

[EZEKiAL]

He put the small animal on his head, then grunted. "I'm going to take a nap..." He leaped into the tree, then laid over the branch like a sloth. "Ah..."

Roze floated back into the glearing, wiping her hands of dust.

[Aura24]

Youko's ears flicked and she looked over at Roze, glaring at her silently.

[EZEKiAL]

Scykle was instantly asleep, so Roze grinned at Youko.

"I know you're trying to steal Scykle from me, Fox," she growled, "Keep your distance from him."

[Aura24]

Youko only growled lowly, "You keep your distance from Scykle. I was with him way before you were even brought into existence.."
