Kuoni shook her head roughly. "You should have made me wait!" She snapped angrily. "She shouldn't have gone out there alone!" She didn't mean to sound so harsh, but she was upset, worrying about Lux and Fiorenza's reaction to Enigma, plus Enigma himself.
"Agrona's group." She growled. They were the ones who had taken Mikey. Mikey.... "No.." She whispered in shock, staring in disbelief at the woods. It couldn't have- No way- He wouldn't- That wasn't- "Mikey you b*****d!" She shrieked at the forest, spinning and running into the cabin. She didn't know where she was running, but ended up in Blue's room and ran under the bed. She curled up as close to the wall and out of reach as she could. She saw now that it had been her own brother who attacked, and he had been aiming for her. Not them. Her. She couldn't tell if coming back was helping or just causing more trouble.
She needed quiet. She needed to think. She needed time to rest and get her head clear. The space was cool, dry, quiet and dark, and she soon started calming down in the peaceful little spot. She remembered doing this as a child when she got really upset a few times, hiding under the owner's bed. She was suprised it still worked.

"Kuoni!" Aphrodite called out when her friends ran away into the cabin. She had an arm outstretched but she slowly put it down to her side. She sighed and decided to just sit on the porch.
Fiorenza slightly woke up when Kuoni ran into the room. She then laid her head back down and fell back asleep.
((Do you mind if we do a couple of hours time skip? That way I can bring Lux back.))

((Sure))
Kuoni had fallen asleep under the bed. She woke up in a panic, again waking up not knowing where she was, and this time having dreamt about back in the woods. She calmed quickly though when she remembered, and crawled hesitantly out from underneath.
She looked around the room she was in and sighed. She almost wanted to crawl back under...

~Several hours later~
Flash came running back to the house carrying Lux in his arms. He slowed down as the cabin came into sight. "We're almost home." He said to himself since Lux was sedated and out of it. He walked up to the porch and saw Aphrodite there. "Hey Love Goddess. You really should go in. You look like you need to eat and sleep." He said walking up the steps.
Aphrodite nodded. "I will. I was just waiting for Lux to come back. I assume you've got her?" She said getting up and opening the door. She didn't know that Flash had nodded. After she felt Flash walk by and into the cabin she went inside.

Kuoni had crawled back under, having started to get worked up again at the thought of leaving the cabin. Now she was back out after another nap. She left her cozy haven and padded to the door. She paused when she heard someone on the other side. A haze of sleep still clung to her mind, making her slightly paranoid. She nervously licked her muzzle and leaned her ear against the door. Who was out there?

"Well how is she?" Aphrodite asked. She looked around before remembering where Lux's bed is. "We better get her to her bed. It's in Blue's room." She said walking down the hallway towards Blue's room.
Flash followed Aphrodite towards Blue's room. "Well she's out of it now.... She was sedated which hasn't worn off. She's pretty banged up though." Flash said, "She had gashes all over but two were really bad on her chest and hind leg. They needed stitches. Her right front leg was broken and is now in a cast. The Vet said it was a clean break and should heal nicely as long as her previous injuries don't affect it. You know she had broken so many of her bones before? I can't believe what a daredevil she is. Anyways.... her hind left leg had a pulled muscle." He looked at the door then to Aphrodite. "Mind opening the door?"

Kuoni recognized Aphrodite's voice and instantly relaxed. Then she heard a strange male's voice. Who was he talking about? Sounded like someone had been attacked... Lux maybe? She prayed it was. Sounded like the poor thing got beat up pretty bad, but if it was Lux, at least she was alive.
She backed away quickly from the door when the voices got closer. She looked around quickly. Should she hide? Should she just stand there? With a loud sigh, she walked forward and opened the door for them, peeking up at them with a slightly nervous look on her face, which fell into near tears again when she saw it was indeed Lux, who looked aweful. She quickly looked down to the floor, ears folded back.

Aphrodite was about to open the door when it opened on its own. "Oh." She said walking forward. She didn't hear Flash's warning in time and tripped over Kuoni. "Ah!" She yelped falling down. She pushed herself up after she had hit the floor. "What was moved in here? I don't remember there being anything in front of the door...."
Flash noticed Kuoni standing in Aphrodite's way. "Watch out...." He warned too late, "It's that friend of yours..... Fiorenza's daughter. Sorry but I can't remember her name." He muttered excuse me and stepped past Kuoni. He walked up to a blue beanbag chair that served as Lux's bed and set her down on it gently. He then turned around and smiled at Kuoni. "I'm Flash.... a super fast superhero moonlit." He said taking in Kuoni's expression, "Don't worry about Lux. She's been in far worse shape than this and did it all on her own. She'll be fine... in fact she'll start complaining that she can't do anything as soon as she wakes up."

Kuoni yelped when Aphrodite tripped over her. She had meant to move to the side but had been stopped by the sight of Lux. "Sorry!" She said, moving to help Aphrodite up.
She looked up at Flash with a reserved smile and nod. "Kuoni." She muttered softly. She looked at Lux again and shook her head. They had never met and yet the white female had followed her into a potentially dangerous situstion... for what?

Aphrodite stood up after a moment. "Oh so it was you Kuoni." She said shaking her head, "Never thought I'd trip over another moonlit." She then groaned when she heard what Flash said about Lux. "I do not want to be around when she does start to complain." She said with a sigh, "She makes our lives miserable with all of her whining and crying. I swear she cares more about getting a thrill and a rush of adrenaline than her own life."
Flash nodded. "Nice to meet you Kuoni." He said turning to Aphrodite, "Yeah but she wouldn't be our daredevil if she was any other way." He then noticed Fiorenza sleeping. "We better be quiet and get out of here. Don't want to wake Fiorenza." His stomach then growled loudly and he grinned sheepishly. He walked out of the room signaling for Kuoni and Aphrodite to follow.

Kuoni's head snapped up. Fiorenza was in here?! She tilted her head at her sleeping mother. She looked... almost peaceful. Kuoni's stomach grumbled in reply to Flash's. She slowly followed after the anthros, looking repeatedly back at Lux and Fiorenza. She turned her eyes back to the floor when they were out of her sight.

Flash heard Kuoni's stomach and chuckled. "Looks like I'm not the only one who's hungry." He said walking across the hall to the kitchen. He opened the door and went in. Vipin was still in there but he had fallen asleep on the floor. Flash shook his head and walked back to his sandwiches.
Aphrodite followed Flash's voice to the kitchen. She walked up to the counter on the far wall and sat down on a bar stool. "You should eat something Kuoni." She said, "Flash make her something to eat."

Kuoni shook her head. "You don't need to do that. I can find something back at the house." She looked at Vipin sleeping and frowned. "I should go find daddy first. See how he's doing." Her stomach argued though, growling at the sight of Flash's sandwiches. She quickly looked away.

Flash shook his head then flung a sandwich at Kuoni. "This can tie you over until you get to the house." He said, "I have to make a dozen or so more still." He took a bite out of one of his already made sandwiches as he worked on the others.
Aphrodite sighed. "Fine but eat the sandwich first." She said, "It'll probably be best if you take your dad home to the main house while we see how Fiorenza is going to be. If she's going to have a good day and retain her mind we'll come get you and Enigma or bring Fiorenza to you. Sound like a plan?"

Kuoni took a hesitant first bite, then eagerly munched down the rest of it with a happy groan. "If he's still here." She said, casting a nervous look at the door. She had left Enigma asleep outside. She didn't know how long she herself had been asleep. Maybe he had left already... "Okay Aphrodite. See you." She said, heading for the door.
