"Pluto Power, Make Up" the girl said suddenly transforming.
"This is the Garnet Rod. It has returned to its master," the cat said aloud. However, after that, a scream hit the air. Both cat and girl turned to find the Shiri screaming and running.
OH MY GOD! I'M GOING CRAZY! She thought to herself already sprinting somehow out of the alley way and away from it all. Her hands moved up over her ears, and she just kept running as fast as she could no longer caring about the books she had been carrying. It's just a dream. It's just a dream. It's just a dream. It's just a..... "Someone please! Please help me!" Shiri found herself shouting again despite the fact that she didn't know if she was even being chased at that point. Adrenaline was a curse on her body at that point, and all she wanted to do was get away from the madness.
Suddenly Shiri found a hand on her shoulder causing her to stop again. Jerking around, Shiri looked more or less ready to burst out into tears.
“What’s the rush?” a girl asked with a calm voice.
“T-t-t-talking c-c-c-cat.” Shiri started. She wanted to say more, but her heart was pounding, and her head was throbbing with emotions and thoughts that all in the end compelled her to want to run away as fast as her legs could carry her.
“And I have a talking fish at home named ray!” the girl half grinned back lightly.She think's I'm crazy too..... Shiri was resisting the sudden urge to bust into sobs at that point.
“I’m not lying.” she answered shaking her head violently and trying to get her thoughts straight.
“There you are…so you found another one.” Shiri's eyes widened for a half second. “Hello, please touch my head.”
The other girl appeared to stare down at the cat for a moment and then sigh outwards. “Okay lets go.” the girl sighed out before starting to walk away. Shiri found a strange sigh of relief run through her.
“No wait you can’t walk away from your destiny; this is your opportune moment.” The cat called back. Shiri felt a jerk in her heart again.
“I love those moments; I like to wave at them as they pass by.” the girl grinned back. A strange peaceful confidence seemed to suddenly take root in Shiri, and she was thankful that the girl was here. She needed some sort of normalcy or something.... from what... from what she had just seen.
“You two have to help the sailor scouts!” the cat continued shouting.
"Ya ya ya...." the girl answered back all but waving back at the cat. Shiri breathed out again and became silent.
"You ok now?" the girl asked looking at Shiri. The red haired girl just nodded a bit back before finally finding she was shaking her head instead of nodding it. "Ya... sometimes that happens to me too," the girl sighed back. "My name's..."
"Kuro Wakusei..." Shiri answered back. "We're in the same class...."
"Oh ya...." the girl half laughed back. "What's your name again?"
"Shiri Mitsukara," Shiri answered back quietly now.
"Nice to meet ya fully then..." the girl smiled back. "Hey aren't you the one who was sle-" she started but broke off and stopped walking. Shiri who had been looking down at the ground looked up and forced her hands over her mouth in order to keep from screaming. Right in front of them was yet another monster.

xD Shiri sure does run away and cry a lot more than I originally intended. Oh well. It's a change in character for me, lol.
