Mutation, Magic, Or Evolution?

In Canterlot City at dusk, the Turtles, Ninjas, Dazzlings and Mutanimals were visiting the Rainbooms.

"Hey, everyone." Sunset greeted.

"Good to see you Rainbooms again." Adagio responded.

"I still can't believe we're coming back here." Aria deadpanned.

"Come on, Aria! That means we have time to apologize to everyone at Canterlot High." Sonata said, looking on the bright side.

"It's a good place to start as any." Karai added.

"Hey, Flutters, you okay?" Rainbow Dash asked her best friend, who sighed sadly.

"I just don't understand. Why? Why do people want the beastmen gone? They're just like us." Fluttershy asked, with everyone else agreeing to that.

"If you ask me, I think beastmen are actually cool." Casey answered with honesty.

"Thanks, dude." Mondo said in gratitude.

"And honestly, I can understand how they feel." Sunset admitted, with the Dazzlings agreeing with that.

"Now, Sunset, we're all glad that you want to help them, but if we use our abilities to aid the beastmen, it will only worsen their predictament." Rockwell warned.

"Rockwell's right about that." Slash agreed.

"But aren't us mutants like beastman?" Bandit asked.

"Yes, but we can't morph into humans." Donnie answered.

"Besides, we were originally either animals or humans before we got mutated by the mutagen." Leo reminded.

"Still, I want try that human disguise again." Mikey said before he withdrew his head, replaced with a puppet human head. "What up?

"And I told you, Mikey, we were never human to begin with. We're turtles." Raph said clearly as Mikey withdrew and and popped his normal head back up.

"Everyone's fine the way they are." April assured all of the mutants.

"She's right about that." Applejack agreed.

"Thank you, my friends." Leatherhead said in gratitude.

"No problem, Leatherhead." Pinkie responded with a smile.

"So, who's gonna stay with who for tonight?" Shinigami asked.

"The turtle brothers and dazzlings can stay with me tonight." Sunset volunteered, as the seven aforementioned ninjas agreed with that.

"Leatherhead and Mondo can stay at my place." Pinkie said, with the reptile mutants agreeing with that.

"Rockwell can stay with me." Twilight added, as the mutant ape agreed.

"Casey and Bandit can crash by my place tonight." Rainbow Dash volunteered as they agreed.

"April and Mona can stay at my home for the night." Rarity said with the girl and alien nodding in agreement.

"Karai and Shini can rest at mah farmhouse." Applejack added, as the two best friends smile, agreeing with the cowgirl.

"I guess that means Slash and Pete will sleep at my house for tonight." Fluttershy finished as the two mutants agreed.

"Well, I guess we'll see each other tomorrow." Twilight said, as everyone agreed and went their separate ways.

Later, at Sunset's apartment, they decided to turn in for the night.

"I'll see you guys in the morning." Sunset said as everyone bid each other good night.

Sunset and the Dazzlings went into their beds which happened to be in the same room, and thought one thing before falling asleep. "I wish we could help the beastmen get along with the humans." Then they fell asleep, unknowing about the what could happen tomorrow morning.

Next morning, Sunset woke and got off of her bed, and checked on the Dazzlings to see if they're doing well, only to notice them looking a bit different. "Huh, must still be sleepy, I'll just wash my face." Sunset shrugged off as she went to her bathroom, proceeding to put water on her face, fully waking her up. "Ah... That's much better, I'm more awake now." Sunset sighed in relief as she lifted her head to look at the mirror, only to see something completely unexpected, causing her to scream loudly, waking everyone else up.

"Sunset, what happened?!" Leo asked in concern as he and his brothers rushed to the bathroom the same time as the Dazzlings ran to help Sunset, only to see something no one would've seen coming... Sunset was now in the same form she was in at Moo Mesa. "What the...?" Leo uttered, before he and his brothers heard screams from the Dazzlings, seeing them as anthropomorphic ponies as well.

"Dudes..." Mikey awed.

"How is this possible?" Donnie asked in shock.

"What the shell is going on?!" Raph yelled, demanding to know the answers.

"Hold on, I'll call the others!" Leo said as he called Twilight and the other girls on his T-Phone, telling them what happened to Sunset and the Dazzlings, surprising them greatly. They decided to meet at Canterlot High to talk about this morning's events.

Later, after meeting up...

"You weren't kidding, Leo. What happened to them?" Twilight asked, while Fluttershy grabbed something from her pocket.

"Um... Everyone, can I try something?" Fluttershy asked.

"Sure, Flutters." Rainbow Dash answered as everyone else agreed, before Fluttershy putted white bandages on the nose bridges of Sunset and the Dazzlings, confusing everyone else.

"Uh... Fluttershy? What are you doing?" Sonata asked before Fluttershy ripped the bandages off of the four ninjas' noses, making them wince a bit, before everyone saw the bandages' bridges now being blue.

"Oh dear..." Fluttershy softly gasped, catching all of her friends' attention.

"Is something wrong?" Karai asked.

"Sunset and the Dazzlings... Somehow, they've become beastmen." Fluttershy answered, leaving everyone in shock.

"WHAT?!" They gasped.

"This is the first time I've seen this happen, humans becoming beastmen." A familiar voice said, making everyone turn to the source, revealing to Principal Celestia with her sister, Luna, behind her.

"Looks like we'll need to be honest with you all about something." Luna added, confusing everyone.

"By jove, what do you mean, madams?" Rockwell asked.

"What we mean is... Me and my sister are beastman." Celestia explained as she and her sister turned into anthro ponies.

That discovery made everyone's mouths drop. "Besides, me and my older sister are beastmen that live for thousands of years." Luna added, leaving them speechless.

"Wow... You two truly are the counterparts of Princess Celestia and Luna..." Sunset uttered.

"I'll take all of you to Anima City in Japan. But we might not exactly get there, because my alicorn magic is a little rusty, but so is my sister’s." Luna said, as she and her elder sister glared at each other before laughing, the mention of where they're going making Fluttershy gasp.

"Anima City?! The beastman-only city where beastmen can truly be themselves?!" Fluttershy asked in excitement, making Celestia giggle.

"The very same." Celestia answered. "But I will need to stay behind since the school needs its principal. But Luna can go with them." Celestia said before whispering something to Luna, "If you want to catch up with a certain wolf." making the vice-principal blush.

"Celey!" Luna pouted, making her elder sister giggle, before turning back toward the heroes. "I still have my two Daburu weapons, just in case my magic's not enough. Anyway, let's go to Anima City!" Luna declared as she teleported herself, the Rainbooms, Turtles, Ninjas, Dazzlings and Mutanimals to Anima City.

Or did she?...

Vice-Principal Luna

Runaway Beastmen

Luna teleported into Anima City, only to find herself in the city. “Like I said, my magic’s a bit rusty.” Luna said to herself, wondering where the others went.

“Excuse me.” A voice called out, revealing the source to be a dark mulberry-coated unicorn mare with a dark pink spike mane and tail, a scar on her right eye and a horn that had its top broken off, also wearing a black police uniform.

“Oh, I’m sorry. Wait, what happened to your horn?” Luna asked.

“It got broken off, simple as that.” The mare beastman answered. “Anyway, I’m looking for two beastmen, they’re sibling canine beastmen, one’s an elder brother with a prosthetic left arm, and the other’s a younger sister.”

“No, I haven’t, but I’ll help you find them as soon as I find my students and their friends.” Luna responded. “Oh, my name is Luna.”

“And my name is Tempest Shadow, a member of Interpol.” She introduced herself to the vice-principal.

“I hope you find them.” Luna said, wishing Tempest luck.

“Same to you finding your students and friends.” Tempest replied as the two went their separate ways.

Meanwhile, with Sunset and her friends, they found themselves teleported away from Anima City.

“Guess Luna wasn’t kidding about her magic being rusty.” Slash said.

“I see Anima City.” Fluttershy pointed out, as everyone saw the beastmen-only capital.

"Ooh boy, that's quite a way from here." Pigeon Pete admitted.

"Guys, we're not alone." Leo warned, as everyone prepared themselves, while away from them, two figures saw them noticing their presence and decided to run.

But they were cut off by Karai, who brought them in. "Could you two explain why you were here?" Karai asked in a strict, yet kind tone.

"I'm not talking to you humans!" The boy answered while cloaking his left arm.

"Leave my big brother alone!" The girl added.

"Um... We don't want to hurt you, or any beastman." Fluttershy try to explain as the two beastmen saw the mutants and the other four beastmen.

"What are beastmen doing with you humans? Are you actually their 'Friends?'" The boy asked with skepticism.

"Sunset and the Dazzlings are beastmen, but the rest of us are mutants, formally animals or humans." Donnie answered.

"Uh, dude, why are you coverin' your arm?" Mikey asked.

"None of your business. But if you really wanna know, it's all that bounty hunter's fault. I thought he wasn't a beastman, but he wasn't human either." The boy answered as he revealed his left arm, which was mechanical, surprising the heroes.

"You ran into a mutant?" Mondo asked.

"Yes, but strangely, his tail was cut clean off." the girl added, making the ninjas know who was responsible.

"You encountered Tiger Claw?!" Rarity gasped, catching the siblings' attention.

"You know who that is?" The boy asked.

"Yes, and we have beaten him before. I'm sorry he took your arm." Leatherhead apologized as all of his friends agreed.

"Hmm... If he's your enemy, I guess you're alright." The boy admitted, much to his sister's shock.

"Mekarm! What are you thinking?! They're humans! They've been hurting our kind for a long time!" The girl protested.

"Sis, it seems they truly care for beastmen, so I'll trust them." The boy answered.

"Grr... Fine." The girl growled.

"My name is Mektaveus, but please call me Mekarm Armaldo. And this is my little sister, Misty." Mekarm introduced himself.

"Nice to meet you two." Sunset greeted with a warm smile.

"We also beaten Fishface, AKA Xever Montes." Bandit added.

"You've beaten my brother?" A new voice asked, revealed to be an electric eel mutant with arms and legs wearing gray pants and shoes.

"You're his brother?!" Rainbow Dash asked in shock.

"Don't worry, I'm nothing like him, so I don't wanna fight you." The mutant explained.

"Sorry, but since you're a slippery mutant like Fishface is, I don't trust you." Raph said in distrust.

"Actually, I used to be a human, becoming a mutant, before accidentally getting this strange blood on my wounds, so now I'm a beastman." The eel beastman explained.

"Bro, sounds like a double mutation." Mondo noticed.

"It does sound like that. Anyway, names Zeelo Montes, but you can call me Zeel." The beastman introduced himself.

"Hey, are you girls the Rainbooms?" Another voice asked, revealing to be a stallion earth pony beastman, who had... wings made of ice on his back?

"Yes, we are. Why are you asking?" Applejack asked.

"Because you see the ice wings on my back? It's because something fused itself with me, giving me ice powers, and from what I heard about your adventures from Canterlot City, I think that something is Equestrian Magic." The stallion explained.

"Wait, how do you know about Equestrian Magic?" Adagio asked in suspicion.

"Because us beastman have a connection with Equestria. I studied about it in the secret libraries the mayor let me into. Name's Arctic Ace by the way, but you can call me Ace." The stallion introduced himself.

"I've been to Equestria myself, thanks to the secret portal at the beachside of Anima City." Another voice added, revealing to be an arctic wolf beastman. "I made plenty of friends in Equestria, and my name is Dr. Wolf."

"Wait, I'm hearing something." Mona noticed as everyone else heard a girl in pain.

"Come on, we gotta help that girl!" April said, as everyone else agreed and went towards the source.

"Hey, guys, it's a raccoon beastman!" Casey said as everyone saw a female beastman with a red jacket.

"She's a Tanuki, you idiot!" Aria corrected.

"Oh no! Look!" Fluttershy gasped, making everyone see humans, who looked like they were hunting her down.

"It's the Beastman Hunters!" Sonata dreaded.

"They sound like real mean meanie-pants!" Pinkie said in anger, before they quiet down to see what was going on as the saw the beastman cornered and on the ground.

"You beastmen disgust me." The first man said.

"I have a pretty good idea of what you were thinking just now." The woman guessed.

"This is the road that beastmen use to escape to Anima City. We knew we'd catch you if we waited here. You're all just a bunch of ugly monsters." The other man said, much to the ninjas and beastmen's anger.

"I'm sick of seeing you around here." The first man added in disgust as he raised his weapon.

"Time to die!" The other man declared, making the Tanuki beastman brace herself, before the first man's arms were wrapped up with the chain from Pinkie's weapon.

"That's enough you mean meanie-pants!" Pinkie said as she revealed herself, much to the hunter's surprise. "That's right, I'm a human! So what are ya gonna do about it?"

"I don't believe it, people still care about these freaks?" The first man asked.

"You should know, I'm friends with beastmen, mutants and aliens. So, HA! Try to top that! Oh wait, you can't!" Pinkie taunted.

"People who protect beastmen are nothing but traitors. So you'll die first!" The other man declared as the woman point her crossbow at Pinkie.

"Excuse me." A voice called out, catching everyone's attention with a "Huh?"

"Sorry to interrupt, but I need you to stop what you're doing. That girl you're surrounding and the girl over there happens to be guests of mine, so treat them with courtesy." The voice advised as it was revealed to be a young woman.

But then the woman shot the other with her crossbow, fortunately, the kind woman jumped over, dodging it. But when the woman landed, she revealed herself to be a mink beastman as she turned into her beast form. "Well that was a bit rude of you. To fire an arrow, without any warning." The mink beastman said as two other beastmen appeared behind the hunters, revealed to be a female boar and a male hyena.

"What do ya say we hurry this up and finish these guys off already?" The boar beastman suggested as the hyena beastman growled.

"If we kill them, it'll be a pain to deal with later. Let's not go too far." The mink beastman answered as the woman aimed her crossbow at the boar beastman, only for her to grab the weapon and flipped the human with her head. The hyena beastmen kicked a bat to a human's face as the other ninjas and beastman appear and started to help them.

"Light's out, biker boy!" Raph said as he punched the other man's lights out.

"Thinking you can outrun me?" Rainbow Dash asked the first man, who was running away before the sports captain zipped in front of him and knocked the man out.

Sunset, Zeelo and the Dazzlings approached the Tanuki beastman before the mink beastman showed up. "Unfortunatly, the beastman hunters have blocked off the road to Anima City. But you guys and your friends have nothing to worry about. You'll all be fine, I'm here to help." The mink beastman assured while the others were still fighting the hunters.

"Uh, but who are you?" The Tanuki beastman asked.

"I'm just a volunteer who loves to extend a helping hand to beastmen in trouble. Marie Itami." She introduced herself.

"Well you look suspicious." Sunset, Zeelo, the Dazzlings and girl said bluntly.

"That really hurts my feelings." Marie pouted.

"So, how much is this gonna cost?" The girl asked.

"I just told you, I'm a volunteer, didn't I?" Marie countered with her own question.

"I bet you're the type of person who would charge me later, though." The girl responded.

"You're not really what I would call nice." Marie noticed.

"I wouldn't have survived this long if I were nice." The girl retorted.

"You make a good point. In that case, I'll go ahead and take all the money you have." Marie answered, much to the others' shock.

"Seriously?!" The girl asked in shock as a hunter was held down by Leatherhead.

"We're talking about putting a price on your lives, after all. You can't set your own value too low, don't you agree?" Marie countered with her own question once more.

"Come on! You gotta be kidding me! We would've saved her and not want anything in return!" Sunset retorted.

"Why don't we just call this what it is." The girl responded as she gave Marie the money.

Later, on a boat, everyone on it was heading for Anima City.

"So, what's your name?" Sunset asked the girl after introducing herself and the rest of her friends.

"Oh, Michiru Kagemori." She answered.

"Nice to meet you, Michiru." Sunset said with a smile.

"There's one thing I'm worried about." Michiru said.

"What is it?" Adagio asked.

"I have a feeling only you four and that girl with the red markings near her eyes are beastmen, along with those two siblings, that eel, wolf and pony. What are you gonna do about the rest of your friends?" Michiru asked in concern.

"Uh... We'll figure something out." Fluttershy answered, before the Rainbooms' geodes and turtles' medallions started glowing, causing a light to cover the whole boat, then faded. And before they knew it, all humans and mutants became beastmen.

"What the?!" Everyone else except Marie gasped, who was counting the money she got.

"Um... I think our magic has given all of us non-beastman us the ability to become beastman, at least as long as we're in Anima City." Fluttershy explained as Michiru turned towards Marie.

"So is it true that the city's really for beastmen?" Michiru asked.

"That's right, Anima City. What's your reason for going?" Marie answered with a question as Michiru thought about that, while Sunset unknowingly read her mind, seeing past Michiru all alone in her room. "Don't worry." Marie said, snapping Michiru out of it as Sunset deactivated her magic. "You're gonna be able to sleep soundly from now on."

"Kay." Michiru responded with a smile.

"I think we can find out what's going on now without any trouble." Casey said with a smile as everyone else from Canterlot City and New York agreed.

Later, after the ship docked...

"Alright, we're here. Once we're off this ship, we're complete strangers, you got that?" Marie asked as the rest of the passengers got off the ship.

"I understand. Thanks for all the help." Michiru said in gratitude.

"Well, see you around." Sunset bid farewell as she, Michiru and the rest of her friends walked off into the city.

Later, they were walking through the streets of Anima City, which seemed to be dark and empty for some reason, before finding themselves in a strange empty plaza.

"What is this place? It's too quiet here." Michiru noticed.

"Yeah, what gives?" Rainbow Dash agreed, before turning into her beastman form, revealed to be a Peregrine Falcon. "Whoa, I'm a falcon? Awesome!"

"Maybe we should keep our guard up fer now." Applejack suggested as she turned into her beastman form, which was a Black Bear.

Everyone readied themselves for potential battle, with Karai turning into her snake form as the rest of the humans turned into their beastman forms; April into a Fox, Shinigami into a Black Jaguar, Casey into a Bandicoot, Twilight into an Elf Owl, Pinkie into a Weasel, Rarity into a Snow Leopard and Fluttershy into a Cottontail Rabbit.

"Dudes, I think I see something on that rooftop." Mikey said as everyone looked towards where Mikey pointed, seeing a strange wolf.

"What is that?" Adagios wondered, before she and everyone else heard howling, looking towards where the source of the sound was. They saw a glowing pair of eyes light up in the darkness, then many more as more howling occurred, as the strange figures started coming out of the shadows, surrounding the newcomers.

But as they were about to begin fighting, the lights came on, with the figures forms revealed, throwing up into the air some kind of wolf masks as they cheered. Then Michiru and her friends saw fireworks fly up and explode in the sky as they then looked around them, seeing the beastmen around them celebrating and partying, exciting Mikey, Pinkie and Sonata, while the other new beastman gasped in awe at the sight.

"It's a festival!" Michiru realized with a smile, as a screen turned on, getting every beastmen's attention, revealing a Naked Mole Rat Beastman.

"It's the mayor!" A male beastman said as the mayor opened her eyes.

"It's Mayor Rose, everyone." Another male beastman called out.

"The mayor is about to talk." A female beastman noticed.

"Long live the mayor." A third male beastman cheered.

"Anima City was established ten years ago, however the division between beastmen and humans still remains. Nevertheless, this land has continued to serve as a place where beastmen can exist in peace. So, with that said, let's commemorate the last ten years, as well as the next ten years, and our future, by celebrating our anniversary!" Mayor Rose calmly declared with a smile, making all of the beastmen of Anima City cheer as Michiru, Sunset, the dazzlings and everyone else saw the beastman having the time of their lives and performing tricks.

"They're really beastmen, all of them!" Michiru said in excitement as she threw off her cloak, revealing her true beastman form. "I don't have to hide who I am anymore!"

"This is way beyond the Booyahkasha gauge, dude! This is a super epic mega BOOYAHKASHA!!!" Mikey cheered.

"This is gonna be so much fun! And none of us have to hide!" Sonata said in pure excitement.

"WE! MUST! PARTY!!!" Pinkie cheered.

"Amazing!" Donnie awed.

"Heh. Guess there's no need to hide." Raph said with a smirk.

"Alright everyone, guess we can take it easy." Leo admitted as everyone went with Michiru as they ran in amazement, before seeing a giant silver wolf machine in awe.

Pinkie, Mikey, Sonata, Pete and Mondo were dancing with Michiru alongside the Flamingo beastmen. Then Applejack, Casey, Mona Lisa, Rainbow Dash, Aria, Leatherhead, Raph and Michiru got some drinks from a place called Fire Bull. Then Donnie, Shinigami, April, Rockwell, Bandit, Rarity, Fluttershy and Michiru got some sweets. Leo, Slash, Sunset, Twilight, Adagio, Karai, Zeel, Dr. Wolf, Mekarm, Misty and Ace were with Michiru before the tanuki beastman bumped into a wolf beastman.

"Oh, I'm so sorry." Michiru apologized before she and the others noticed the wolf beastman having tears coming out of his eyes.

"What an incredible smell. It's the smell of beastmen filled with joy and happiness." The beastman said, confusing Michiru and her friends. "Enjoy it. We've waited for this festival for a thousand years."

That strange moment made Michiru chuckle nervously a little, before turning to her friends. "Strange people in this world. Why's he crying? Weirdo." Michiru whispered.

"Agreed. No idea why though." Adagio said.

"Maybe he's crying because he's happy." Dr. Wolf theorized.

"Good point there." Zeel agreed, before he and the rest of his friends noticed the wolf beastman was gone.

"Where did he go?" Michiru wondered.

"No clue." Ace said.

Meanwhile, at the main tower of Anima City, Mayor Rose stood in front of the window, before her secretary, Koichi Ishizaki, a Pangolin beastman, showed up with Luna and Tempest Shadow.

"Ma'am, Vice Principal Luna from Canterlot High School and Tempest Shadow from Interpol are here to see you. And you have a message from the prime minister." Koichi informed.

Later, Mayor Rose was talking to the Prime Minister, Shiramizu.

"Congratulations to you, Mayor Rose, it's been ten years." Shiramizu greeted Barbara Rose, who was in her human form alongside her secretary, Luna and Tempest.

"Prime minister, it's all because of your help." The mayor responded, making the prime minister chuckle.

"Yes, well, don't get the wrong idea, now. The beastmen special zone isn't invincible, as is Canterlot City. Just remember that if you beastmen ever decide to do anything risky, there's no telling what could happen to you." The prime minister warned Mayor Rose and Vice-Principal Luna. "I count on you to do the right thing." Shiramizu said as he ended the call.

"Well, he's always like this. Was he congratulating us or threatening us?" Mayor Rose wondered before she turned to her secretary, Tempest and Luna. "But it's good to see you again, Tempest."

"Heh. I'm still amazed that my best friend is the mayor of Anima City." Tempest said with a laugh.

"And I hope, Canterlot City is doing well." The mayor added.

"Of course, Barbara. Me and my older sister are doing well, but the city's gotten a lot stranger since the mutants and Equestrian Magic." Luna responded.

"Mutants, and magic from Equestria?" Mayor Rose asked.

"Yes." Luna answered.

"But regardless of what the prime minister said, ten years have gone by now." Koichi said as he held some glasses with wine. A few seconds later, the four of them were in their beast forms. "Here's to Barballet Rosé's ten-year struggle."

"And to Anime City's next ten years." Mayor Rose finished she and her three friends clinked their glasses.

Meanwhile, at the festival, Michiru and her friends were drinking some Fire Bull, before they exhaled in satisfaction. "Man, that stuff is strong." Michiru said as Marie slinked up to her.

"Oh, look. You guys bought something to eat? So you were hiding something from me." Marie said, startling Michiru, Fluttershy and Sonata.

"Hey, you're that weasel!" Michiru noticed.

"~Pop goes the weasel!~" Pinkie sang in reference to Marie's surprise appearance.

"I am not a weasel! I'm a mink!" Marie said, feeling offended.

"Um, Marie's right about that." Fluttershy timidly said.

"What's the difference?" Michiru asked.

"Don't you dare mistake me for a weasel! They all have cheap fur!" Marie answered.

"My, now that I take a look, your fur coat is rather fine." Rarity said, noticing the quality of the fur. “But please, don’t hurt Pinkie’s feelings, and her fur coat is fine the way it is.”

“Yeah! My fur’s all poofy!” Pinkie agreed.

"Oh." Michiru noticed.

"You told me you gave me all the money you had. Kids these days, you can't let your guard down for a second." Marie said.

"Well, I'm not gonna give you any more money. You said we're strangers once we got off that ship." Michiru responded, while unknown to her or any of her friends, except Marie, a monkey beastman snuck up behind Michiru and put his hand into the fur of her tail.

"Don't get the wrong idea, but you're not exactly trustworthy." Slash said.

"Do I honestly look like I would be that mean? That hurts, more than I can tell you guys." Marie pouted as the monkey beastman grabbed Michiru's wallet out of her tail, making the tanuki beastman freeze for a moment while he moved slowly away.

Michiru looked to her right, with her friends' eyes following to where she was looking, noticing the monkey beastman while he was running away. "Ah! Hey, that's mine!" Michiru yelled.

"A thief?!" Misty gasped.

"How did we not notice it?!" Mekarm asked.

"Oh, you poor little thing. You have to be more careful. Here in Anima City, they'll take advantage of you." Marie warned as the new beastmen turned towards her.

"Wait, did you just trick me?!" Michiru asked the mink beastman.

"You're good, I'll give ya that much." Karai admitted, impressed by her wittiness.

"Better run, the thief is getting away." Marie said as Michiru and her friends decided to chase after the monkey beastman thief.

"Come back! Someone help me! Somebody stop that thief!" Michiru called out, only to no avail.

"Get back here, ya slimeball!" Casey said as he got onto his roller skates and dashed ahead. He chased the thief into underneath the screen, only to crash into a pillar beam. "OW!"

"Give it back!" Michiru yelled as she and her other friends went underneath the screen as well, but stopped to look around, only to see a suspicious wolf beastman, who noticed them and tipped his hat before jogging away with a box in one of his hands. But they snapped out of it to keep searching for the monkey beastman, only to find Casey on the floor, who was getting up on his feet. "Where did he go?"

"Ugh... Crud. He got away." Casey deadpanned, as Michiru tugged her ears in frustration.

"GRR!!! This sucks!" Michiru said as she punched a steel pillar beam, before as if on cue, an explosion occurred, catching the local beastmen's attention.

Michiru and her friends looked up to see the screen tipping over, as the local beastmen began to run for their lives.

"Me and Twilight will hold it off for as long as we can!" Rockwell said as he starting using his telekinesis with Twilight using her geode to stop the falling structure, only for its fall to slow down.

But then Michiru noticed an elderly ram beastman walking away slowly. "He's in danger!" Michiru dreaded as she started to run towards him while Rainbow Dash heard and saw the elder as well.

"Don't worry Michiru! I'll help boost the running!" Rainbow Dash said as she used her geode super speed to move the elderly man away from the structure very quickly.

Michiru noticed some of her friends trying to help stopped the falling screen. "Hurry up, everyone! We gotta go faster!" Michiru panicked as Rainbow Dash zipped in, using her super speed to save the rest of her friends, and now only Michiru was left. "This is bad! This is bad! This is bad! This is bad!" Michiru whimpered as the structure was now right on top of her and Rainbow Dash was about to zip in to save her, before a white flash grabbed the tanuki beastman faster than RD could go, much to the daredevil's shock, before it crashed. "Aw man, that really hurt."

"Michiru!" Sunset and her friends gasped as they ran towards the tanuki.

"You alright?" Zeel asked.

"Yeah, I think I'm okay." Michiru answered before she and the others saw noticed the beastman she bumped into before. "Isn't that the guy who was crying?"

They still saw tears coming out of the wolf beastman's eyes. "He's still crying?" Adagio asked before the beastman turned his eyes to the direction of her and all of her friends.

Then the wolf beastmen picked up Michiru and Sunset. "Was it either of you? Are you or any of your accomplices the one who ruined the beastmen's festival?" The wolf beastman asked.

"No, it wasn't me or any of my friends! All I did was slightly punch the pillar with my fist." Michiru answered.

"That wouldn't make it explode though." The wolf beastman argued.

"Way to grasp the obvious, genius!" Aria growled.

"That's why none of us did it!" Adagio agreed, before Michiru and Sunset remembered something.

"Wait a minute, there was a wolf beastman there." Sunset realized.

"Yeah, he looked really suspicious." Sonata agreed.

"He was sneaking around next to the pillar before." Michiru remembered.

"Who's that guy?" The wolf beastman asked before dropping Michiru and Sunset as he turned around and started to sniff the air with his eyes closed, picking up multiple scents. He followed the scent of Michiru and picked up the scent of that other wolf beastman, picking up his trail to where he's at now, causing him to open his eyes. "I've misunderstood the situation. I apologize."

The wolf beastman ran off, leaving Michiru and the others behind. "What the heck was that all about?" Michiru asked with a sigh, before remembering something. "Oh, that's right! The thief! Sorry guys, but I need to find that guy. Catch ya later." Michiru said as she left to find the monkey beastman.

"Follow the wolf beastman?" Sunset asked.

"Follow the wolf beastman." Adagio answered as everyone else agreed, following where that wolf beastman ran off to.

Meanwhile, the wolf beastman had his eyes closed, following the scent trail the other wolf beastman left behind, before noticing a pink scent trail, causing him to open his eyes as he caught in an explosion, Catching Michiru, Sunset and the others' attention. "What the?" Michiru uttered as she decided to go towards the explosion.

"That can't be good." Sunset dreaded as she and the rest of her friends went towards the source of the explosion.

At the explosion sight...

"It's really too bad. It was a scentless bomb. Even a beastman wouldn't be able to notice." The other wolf beastman said with a smile, before gasping out a scream, feeling something grabbing his left ankle. "What's goin' on?!" He gasped, seeing that it was the wolf beastman that was caught in the explosion, before that arm threw him into the air, making him crash into a ventilation system.

Then the wolf beastman rose out of the ground, growling and not having a single wound. "Now I'm angry." The wolf beastman growled.

"No way! I-Is he immortal?! Gah!" The other wolf beastman screamed as he ran.

"Tell me. Why did you ruin the festival?" The wolf beastman asked as the other wolf beastman went to his truck and knocked the back door, causing a massive foot to kick it from the inside out. Two figures came out of the truck to assist the other wolf beastman, revealed to be a lion and a deer, as the two of them fired their weapons at the wolf beastman, who seemed to be dodging them perfectly.

"He was a fast one isn't he." The lion beastman said as he and the deer beastman who had an eyepatch reloaded their weapons.

"What's wrong, Sato? Did you go and mess up your brilliant plan?" The deer beastman asked.

"Be careful, that wolf guy's tough. He was able to dodge my bomb!" Sato told the two beastman.

"It seems like these guys are professionals." The wolf beastman noticed as he closed his eyes again and smelled their scent, only to pick up four white scents behind them. "I see... Humans!" He said as he growled fiercely with his eyes snapping open, before landing onto the truck behind the three beastman. "So you three idiots were bought out by the humans?"

"How would you know that? Huh?" The lion beastman asked as he and the other two turncoat beastmen turned around and fired their weapons at the wolf beastman, who dodged them perfectly once more.

"It's impossible to erase the stench of humans from your bodies." The wolf beastman answered as he landed behind them again, making them turn towards him.

"I gotta say, you got a pretty good sense of smell!" The deer beastman admitted as the three fired their weapons at the wolf beastman again.

"The Anti-Beastmen faction bought you, right?" The wolf beastman asked as he kept dodging the gunshots from their firearms.

"Nobody buys us, you understand me? It doesn't make a difference if you're a beastman or if you're a human. We get a job, then we go do it, it's who we are! Nothing else matters!" The lion beastman answered as they reloaded and kept firing at the wolf beastman, who was still dodging them.

"The festival. You ruined matters. Was that your goal? To destroy it?" The wolf beastman asked in anger as he grabbed the deer beastman by the antlers, spinning him upside down, before stomping him into the ground on the chin. The lion beastman started firing at wolf beastman, while the wolf beastman grabbed it as Sato dodged the small blasts from the weapon's bullets. "You'll pay for this. You'll pay with your life!" The wolf beastman growled as he hit the lion beastman's face with the handhold of his own weapon, before pulling on the bullet strap, then punched him down to the ground, as Sato got up and drew a knife. But he was kicked away by the wolf beastman, towards Michiru who just arrived, before Sunset and her friends showed up as well. "You beastmen who sold their souls to the humans, you disgust me. You don't deserve it, to have me tear you apart with my claws. You'll die by my fist!"

"Bring it on, then! I don't regret it at all!" The lion beastman said as he unsheathed his claws before he and the deer beastman roared. The lion beastman charged at the wolf beastman, pushing him on the ground, before getting thrown over the wolf beastman's shoulder.

Then the deer beastman charged at the wolf beastman's back, only for him to duck under as he sweeped him off the ground, then grabbing the deer beastman by his antlers once again. "Let go of me!" The deer beastman said.

"You've already lost the pride of being a beast, so you have no need for the pride of a deer!" The wolf beastman responded with a dark toothy smile, tightening his grip and started pulling the antlers apart.

"No! Not my antlers! Please, stop! Anything but my antlers!" The deer beastman begged as the wolf beastman broke his antlers, before he got grabbed by the lion beastman.

"I am done with you! Lousy bastard!" The lion beastman growled in anger.

"There's no reason for you to be so rude about it." The wolf beastman quipped as he flipped the deer antlers and whacked the lion beastman's face with them, before he punched him into the ground as one of the broken antlers whirled and landed in front of Michiru, Sunset, the dazzlings and the others.

They were in shock of what's going on, before Sato grabbed Sunset and Michiru from behind. "Stop! Don't move!" Sato ordered as he held his knife on the two girls' throats, making them gasp, catching everyone's attention. "If any of you move even one inch, then they're dead, got that?!" Sato threatened as Sunset slipped her hand into her pocket pouch, grabbing a kunai.

"You're mistaken. They are not the dead ones." The wolf beastman said as he was suddenly right behind Sato, making him gasp with a "Huh?!" before he punched him into the ground, as Sato bounced off, allowing the wolf beastman to punch him downward again, and again and again.

"Okay, I think he gets the point! Stop it!" Michiru said as the wolf beastman kicked Sato away, right into the lion and deer beastmen.

"What do you think you're doing?!" Sunset asked as the wolf beastman walked towards the three beastman.

"Don't think this it too far?!" Adagio asked.

"Do they really have to die?!" Zeel added.

"Don't you see? The festival was ruined because of them." The wolf beastman answered.

"But they're beastmen too, right?!" Sonata asked.

What's the point of this?!" Aria added.

"These three were working for the humans. They're not worthy of being called beastmen. They deserve this punishment." The wolf beastman answered as he stepped on Sato's face.

"Cut it out!" Leo said.

"STOP IT RIGHT NOW!!!" Michiru, Sunset, the dazzlings and Zeel yelled as everything around them was surrounded in fur and electricity, pushing the wolf beastman away, before the electricity stopped and the five huge patches of fur shrunk and receded back into the tails of the five mammal beastmen, with them and all of their friends shielding the unconscious beastmen.

"You don't have to do this. Why are beastmen fighting each other anyway? I thought this city was supposed to be a paradise for our kind!" Michiru asked as the wolf beastman stood up.

"That's exactly why I'm fighting. Humans are the enemies of our city and that means any beastmen who work for the humans are as well." The wolf beastman answered.

"Don't you realize not all humans are enemies?!" Sunset asked.

"Every human is exactly the same." The wolf beastman answered, deeply wounding the humans transformed into beastmen or mutants.

"No! They're not! I know, because I'm a human too!" Michiru said, catching all of her friends off guard. "That's right. I'm a human. At least I used to be!"

"Me... Me and most of my friends used to be humans too, ya know!" Sunset added, surprising Michiru.

"Then why do most of you look like that?" The wolf beastman simply asked.

This could be bad news. What will happen? Is the pony magic out of the equestrian bag?

“That’s right, I’m a human. At least I used to be.” Michiru said as she looked at herself.

“Same can be said for me and most of my friends.” Sunset added.

"As was I but I don't know what I am now." A female voice said, catching the ninjas and Michiru by surprise.

“WHERE DID YOU COME FROM?!?” The ninjas and Michiru asked in shout.

"Sorry about that. My name's Danyelle Glinda Griffa, but you can call me Danyelle." Danyelle introduced herself.

"Whoa... You're a griffon beastman." Ace awed.

“You’re a Tanuki. And the rest of you know what you are. For some reasons, mythical Beastmen are returning.” Shirou spoke.

“You're wrong, it's a raccoon!” Michiru argued before Danyelle pulled her tail.

“Raccoons have striped tails, you do not have a striped tail.” Danyelle retorted.

“I don’t think she does.” Sunset agreed.

“Even I know the difference between raccoons and tanuki.” Danyelle added.

“I don’t wanna be that!” Michiru pouted.

"I didn't ask to be a gryphon yet here I am, feathers and all!" Danyelle aruged.

“Calm down, sis! I didn’t ask to be a gryphon either, but these are the cards we were dealt with, so we have to play them.” A male voice spoke, making everyone see a male gryphon beastman with a scar on his left eye, having training clothes and wrappings in his talons as Danyelle hid her face with her wings.

“Zack, what are you doing here?” Danyelle asked in annoyance.

“Hey! Can’t I be worried about my little sister-figure?” Zack asked.

"I'm 30 you featherbrain!" Danyelle argued.

“I’m still your older brother-figure!” Zack retorted.

"It's bad enough that four years after my turning, I was shot in the right wing... damn wound never healed right." Danyelle hissed.

"Maybe I can help with that." Leo suggested.

"I had the wound since I was 18. There's no way to fix it, sorry turtle dude." Danyelle apologized as she flapped her right wing which made a whistling sound.

“Believe me, it’ll work.” Leo assured as he started making hands signs and saying words in Japanese and when he finished, his hands glowed green as he placed them on Danyelle’s right wing, before the glowing faded. “There, all better.”

“Dude! No touchy!” Danyelle growled as her wings shot up on end, unknowingly doing something that made Zack’s jaw drop at what he saw.

“Sis, you’re…” Zack stuttered.

“What? I’m what?” Danyelle asked, losing her patience.

“You’re…” Zack repeated, before gaining a relieved and happy smile on his face. “You’re flying!”

Danyelle looked behind her, seeing that she really was flying, gaining a happy smile as well, before gaining a scowl as she landed and cuffed Michiru upside on the back of the head. "That's another favorite phrase of mine. "Slap in the face would be humiliating, back of the head's a wake-up call." I say it a lot."

“I get ya. Smack on the back of the head’s what I do to Mikey most of the time.” Raph said in understanding.

“Yep, that’s true. Hey!” Mikey agreed, before he realized what they meant, making him pout.

"Hey guys!" A male voice said as a five-year-old opinicus beastman girl was with another opinicus beastman seemed to be her father.

"Hi." The girl greeted

“Hey, sweetie. I missed you.” Danyelle said happily as she and the male opinicus beastman shared a brief kiss.

"I missed you Dany." The father cooed.

"Same." Danyelle agreed.

“Um… who are you?” Michiru asked.

"Oh sorry, this is James. He and Selene are opinicus Beastmen." Danyelle introduced her family before Shirou's ears picked up something.

"We have to go." Shirou simply said before he left, followed by the others.

Later, the police arrived and the chief saw the criminals wrapped up in rope with a note that said, "These scum are the barbaric bombers."

A dog beastman lifted his hat as he said, "Once again, we're a step behind."

On the rooftops, Shirou, Michiru, Danyelle, Sunset and the others were running before they landed on the ground, reverting to their human forms, except Michiru, Zeelo, Sunset, and the Dazzlings.

"Hold on, where are we..." Michiru started to ask before she, Sunset and the others that are new to being a beastman gasped in surprise as they saw Shirou and those that were beastman from the beginning or used to being beastmen turned into their human forms.

"Just how much longer are you kids going to stay like that?" Shirou asked.

"Aren't you gonna go into your human form?" Danyelle asked.

"None of can, actually." Sunset answered.

"That complicates things." Dr. Wolf said as Shirou walked away, annoyed.

"I thought he’d be older." Michiru noted.

"Me too." Pinkie agreed as she and everyone else followed, but she and the other newcomers started to notice the more human looking people.

"Hey wait." Michiru noticed.

"Something wrong?" Mekarm asked.

"No one here is a beastman." Rarity answered.

"That’s because everyone here is in their human form." Ace responded.

"Human form?" The newcomer group asked.

"You new guys have a lot to learn." Misty said.

"You kids sure Celestia and Luna told you everything?" Shirou asked, catching the ninjas completely off guard.

"Hold on! You know Principal Celestia and Vice-Principal Luna?!" Leo responded with his own question.

"They're old friends of mine. Their scent is all over you... (Cough) Except the white one. She smells awful." Shirou answered as Applejack took a whiff before covering her nose.

"Seriously, Rare? Did ya really have to put on perfume?" Applejack asked before everyone else coughed at their heightened sense of smell.

"*Cough!* Maybe it wasn’t such a good idea." Rarity coughed.

Meanwhile, across the city a portal opened and dropped an old friend out. "Hmm? Where am I?"

Back with everyone else...

"They're all Beastmen." A bearded mustached beastman in human form confirmed.

"Oh dear. I was afraid of that." Fluttershy dreaded.

"What?! You can tell from just that?" Michiru asked in shock.

"The Beastmen marker is a simple yet reliable test. Them I can confirm are beastmen, though the lot of you I'm not exactly sure what you are." The beastman said.

"We're mutants turned into beastmen." Leo answered for himself and the rest of the mutants.

"Mutants?" Shirou asked.

"I did read about a lot of sightings of those in New York. I'm guessing you're those mutants?" The beastman assumed.

"You're right about that." Slash confirmed.

"But we're really humans." April added for her and the other humans turned to beastmen.

"I am smelling some strange magic on all of you." Shirou noticed.

"Doesn't matter, we're telling the truth about being humans." Michiru said.

"Well even without the marker, there's no two-ways about it." The beastman responded.

"I am telling you, we're humans! I was a normal human until a year ago, then one day I woke up and suddenly took this form." Michiru explained.

"Impossible. A human is a human, a Beastman is a Beastman. You can’t just change suddenly." Shirou scoffed.

"I’m sure it’s some kind of disease!" Michiru responded.

"Really? Such as what?" Shirou questioned.

"Y-You know, something like Beastman-itis!" Michiru guessed.

"Well me and my friends from New York and Canterlot City were transformed because of Equestrian Magic. At least I think it was that for me and the Dazzlings." Sunset explained as Shirou remained calm, but freaked out inside at the mention of Equestria.

"Are there any others like us?" Sonata asked.

"There’s no one else like all of you." Shirou responded.

"Yes, it’s true. I’ve certainly never heard of anyone." The beastman agreed.

"Kinda hard to swallow with a city this big." Twilight admitted.

"I have heard talk of human delusional syndrome catching on, lately. We could have you admitted to the-" The beastman started to say.

"It’s not that kind of disease!" Michiru growled.

"O-Okay." The beastman said before a beastwoman in her human form showed up.

"Jem, there’s really no need to talk to them like that. Subtlety has never exactly been your strong point, has it?" The beastwoman asked.

"Sorry, ma'am for the trouble." Applejack apologized.

"It’s alright. And you’re Miss Kagemori, is that right?" The beastwoman asked.

"Oh! That’s right! Michiru Kagemori." Michiru confirmed as she introduced herself.

"Well, I'm Melissa and this is Jem. And I can see that there’s a lot of newcomers. Anyway, you’ll all need to fill these out in order to register as residents of the city hall." Melissa said as she gave the newcomers some papers.

"Any chance you know Celestia and Luna?" Sunset asked.

"Of course we do! Everyone knows Celestia and Luna, they love visiting Anima City." Melissa answered.

"Any idea where they are?" Adagio asked.

"Wait, didn’t Principal Celestia say that she was staying at Canterlot High?" Aria remembered.

"Yes, but Luna was supposed to be here in the city." Rarity responded.

"Officer Berrytwist did say that Luna only arrived here last night." Melissa said.

"In the morning, you kids can go looking for her." Jem added.

"But seriously, I told you I’m not a beastman! I shouldn’t have to fill out a-" Michiru started to say.

"It’s just standard procedure here." Melissa explained.

"Oh, I know! My student ID!" Michiru realized.

"What good would that do?" Shirou asked.

"Blood type and species are printed on them in case of emergencies." Twilight answered.

"Yeah!" Michiru agreed before she and most of the others froze. "I forgot that my wallet was stolen." Michiru realized as the other girls checked for theirs.

"Ours, too." Rainbow Dash added.

"Well, it looks like you’ll just have to accept it." Melissa said.

"I don’t wanna!" Michiru whined.

"Unfortunately, things stolen in Anima City are generally lost forever." Jem informed.

"And the police allow such sloppy work." Mona scoffed in disappointment.

"Why don’t you all call it a day? You look pretty tired." Melissa suggested as Michiru mopped until her new friends comfort her. Soon they were lead to their “room,” which was really small. "For now, you all will have to make do with this."

"Thanks, but we'll sleep on the roof." Leo responded.

"A-Are you sure?" Melissa asked in concern.

"We'll be fine. Thanks all the same." Slash answered

"Of course. At least the beds are clean." Melissa responded.

"We'll sleep with Michiru though." Twilight said.

"It’s okay, I’m used to sleeping outside." Michiru responded.

"If you have any questions, feel free to ask Mr. Shirou over here." Melissa informed.

"Huh?" Michiru wondered as Melissa opened a door before a crow swooped in. "Whoa!" Michiru yelped before the crow landed on her head.

"Aww! What a cute bird." Fluttershy gushed.

"Yeah Lulu, your kids are here." Shirou quietly said on the phone, while Rarity heard that as her and Fluttershy’s ears twitched.

“Lulu? Are Vice Principal Luna and Shirou…?” Rarity thought with interest.

"Gotta go." Shirou bid farewell as he ended the call. "Kuro." Shirou called as the crow, now revealed as Kuro, flew over onto Shirou’s shoulder. "We’ll start early tomorrow. Get some sleep." Shirou said as he closed the door.

"Mr. Shirou isn't social outside his darling, but he's nice." Melissa explained.

"Hmm… Would that darling happen to be Luna?" Rarity assumed.

"Maybe." Melissa responded as Fluttershy blushed with her ears covering her eyes while Rarity lifted an eyebrow in suspicion. Later, the girls decided to get some rest.

"This isn’t quite what I had in mind." Michiru noted.

"Doesn't mean it's not without benefits." Sunset responded.

"Good point, at least I made some new friends." Michiru agreed.

"If we can't find a cure, you can come with us to Canterlot." Rainbow Dash offered.

"R-Really? But what about Zeel?" Michiru asked.

"Everyone can come." Fluttershy answered.

"But Shirou might be hesitant." Applejack warned.

"It doesn't matter. Your town sounds nice." Michiru responded.

"But tell me, why were you asking about Zeelo?" Rarity asked in interest, making Michiru start to blush.

"Uh… Well, um…" Michiru stuttered.

"Girls, go to bed." Sunset said.

"She’s right! Night girls!" Michiru hastily agreed before going to sleep

"That was strange." Twilight noted.

"And I think I know ~why~!" Pinkie said, saying that last phrase in a sing-song tone.

Next morning, a familiar Rabbit Ronin was walking the streets.

"I have a feeling that the Turtles and Rainbooms are nearby." The rabbit said.

"You lost, rabbit?" A thug asked.

"I’m only looking for a few friends of mine." The rabbit answered.

"Well, we can help you. Follow us." Another thug offered as the rabbit was suspicious of that, but decided to play along and follow them. The next sounds that were heard were that of a beatdown, before the rabbit exited the area, wearing a new set of clothes.

"Don't get up. I can handle myself." The rabbit said as he continued his search.

Meanwhile, everyone else was at City Hall, while Rainbow Dash, Raph, Aria and Mona groaned out of boredom from seeing the entirely long line.

"This will take all day." Rainbow Dash complained.

"Wow, it’s packed." Michiru noted.

"You’re telling me, chica." Zeelo agreed.

"See you kids later." Shirou said.

"What? You’re leaving us?" Michiru asked in confusion.

"I happen to have a few errands to run here too. Do the rest on your own." Shirou answered.

"But we can keep you kids company." Danyelle added as James and Selene nodded in agreement before everyone noticed the commotion ahead.

"Move it! I’m in a hurry." A beastman in human form urged as he shoved the line back.

"I was next here." Another beastman in human form said as he showed up.

"Yeah? I don’t think so!" The first beastman growled as he turned into a dog while the other man turned into a bull as the teenagers and kids were intimidated of what was going on.

"The young ones always try to show their strength." Shirou said.

"Alright, what’s going on, and aren’t there any rules here?" Applejack asked.

"There are. Only the strong survive." Shirou answered as the two morphed beastmen started grappling with each other as the dog beastman headbutted the bull beastman, who retaliated with a charge, hitting the dog beastman’s stomach and knocking him back, as the bull beastman stepped on his defeated foe. "And that’s the only rule." Shirou added before Luna's caller ID came on his phone.

"That... is just so ridiculous." Michiru deadpanned as Shirou answered his phone and started talking to Luna.

"Leo, watch the group." Shirou ordered.

"O-Okay." Leo hesitant agreed.

"Don’t forget, me, James and Selene are gonna be with you."

"Well, as much as I want to stay, I better get off to work." Dr. Wolf said as he, Shirou and the others used to living in Anima left.

"Yeah, Lulu. I'm here." Shirou said on the phone as he was leaving.

"Shiry! It’s so good to hear you again!" Lulu happily responded on the phone while Michiru and a few others noticed someone familiar.

"Where have I seen him before?" Michiru wondered as the man slipped in and pickpocketed a wallet from a beastman’s satchel before bolting. "It's the thief!" Michiru noticed as she, Zeelo, Mikey, Pinkie, Sonata and Fluttershy started following him.

"Leo, you guys handle the paperwork. We got him!" Mikey informed.

"You mean, me and the Mutanimals?" Leo asked.

"I think he meant the group that took off with him." Raph answered as the said group were already gone.

Meanwhile, still in the streets of Anima City, the familiar rabbit heard someone's voice. "Huh?" He wondered.

"Stop, thief!" Michiru shouted before the rabbit rushed into an alley and kicked the thief to the wall.

"Gah! What the?!" The thief gasped as Michiru and the others found the thief pinned by a sword.

"Michelangelo, Pinkie Pie, Sonata, Fluttershy... Good to see you four again." The rabbit said, making the four ninjas gasp.

"Usagi!" Mikey, Pinkie, Sonata and Fluttershy said in excitementas as the rabbit's hood fell down and indeed it was their Rabbit Ronin friend.

"I heard the Tanuki girl yell thief and thought I'd ambush him. Thanks for the help." Usagi explained in gratitude.

"Friend of yours?" Michiru asked.

"Yeah! From different Earth!" Mikey answered.

"They speak the truth. But I'm wondering if I'm actually in the right dimension." Usagi wondered.

"Long story, buddy. Right now, we want our stolen property back." Pinkie responded.

"Don’t know what you’re talking about!" The Monkey Beastman lied before Usagi brought his sword to his neck.

"My associate doesn't make empty threats." Sonata warned.

"I suggest you give the girls back their wallets, hombre." Zeelo agreed.

"That’s ancient history!" The Monkey Beastman responded.

"It was yesterday." Michiru growled before Mikey snapped his fingers and Usagi brought his sword to the Thief's neck, making him sweat.

"No use talking about what happened yesterday in this town." A familiar voice advised as Usagi, Mikey, Zeelo, Michiru, Pinkie, Sonata and Fluttershy looked behind them and saw Marie.

"Sorry, but do we know you?" Fluttershy asked.

"Huh? Oh." Marie noticed as she turned into her beastman form, becoming a mink once again.

"Oh, you’re the weasel-" Michiru started to say.

"A mink." Marie corrected.

"She's right. The coat is too shiny, she's a mink." Usagi agreed.

"It’s Marie the Mink." Marie said as the heroes looked and only saw the monkey beastman’s jacket.

"Heehee! You guys really are halfwits! Later!" The Monkey Beastman bid farewell as he ran away on the rooftops, laughing.

"I'm having such a bad day." Usagi growled.

"Tell me about it, amigo." Zeelo agreed.

"So you really were working together!" Michiru claimed as Marie went back into her human form.

"What?" Marie asked in faux-confusion.

"You distracted us so he could escape!" Pinkie explained.

"That’s preposterous, it’s simply an odd coincidence. It’s a small town after all." Marie shrugged off.

"If you're lying, I'll send down the Sanzu River myself." Usagi said as he raised his sword.

"Seems like you don’t trust me. And who was it exactly that got you into this town again?" Marie asked.

"Yeah. Sure, after I paid a hefty price." Michiru explained as Usagi looked at his friends.

"Ask us later." Sonata said

"Yeah yeah, I got it. Trust is key in my line of work after all. Let me give you some advice on the house. All lost belongings eventually end up in Rabbit Town." Marie informed.

"Rabbit town?" Michiru asked in confusion.

"Yep, go there and pay Gran Grandma a visit." Marie answered before Danyelle, James and Selene showed up.

"We can help." Danyelle offered.

"Thought you guys were staying with Leo." Michiru noted.

"Well we were, but Selene seems really fond of you. So we decided to hang out with you." James answered as Selene higged Michiru's leg, while Michiru simply rubbed her head with a smile.

Meanwhile, Shirou caught up with a familiar Beastman.

"Those kids of yours are a real headache, Lulu." Shirou groaned as Luna appeared.

"Aw, and here I thought you'd make a good father." Luna teased as Shirou scoffed a bit, but blushed on the inside.

"Never gonna happen. So, where's your older half?" Shirou asked.

"You mean my sister? She’s still at Canterlot High, being the Principal and all that." Luna answered.

"Whatever. You two are a nuclear bomb when together." Shirou scoffed.

"Oh? You saying that the Celestial Sisters are stronger than you?" Luna teased.

"I'm saying I don't want Anima City to be a smoldering crater." Shirou said.

"And you know that Celestia and I would never let that happen." Luna responded.

"Need I remind you about you two reducing that Nazi Internment Camp to rumble after you found those mutilated bodies at that lumber mill?" Shirou asked.

"That was only because we lost our tempers." Luna explained.

"Or the time those poachers wanted to skin me and you two severed their spines, paralyzing them." Shirou added.

"Well, no one threatens my friends and gets away with it." Luna answered.

"Or the time Flip tried to set up shop in your town and he and his men were brought here on a stretcher." Shirou finished.

"They would’ve hurt many innocents if we didn’t do anything." Luna responded.

"Face it, Lulu. You and your sister are a couple of ticking time bombs." Shirou said.

"Who’s to say that you’re any better?" Luna fired back as Shirou was about to remark when Leo called him.

"What is it, Leo?" Shirou asked before he heard something that concerned him. "What do you mean they took off?!"

Back with Michiru's group, they arrived at Rabbit Town.

"Nothing about this place says rabbit." Michiru noted.

"I can vouch for that." Usagi agreed.

"Dudes, we got company." Mikey said as Michiru and Selene got behind them while everyone else drew their weapons and got ready to fight.

"Who the heck are you?" A beastwoman in her human form, known as Elsa, asked.

"Easy, señoras. We don't want any trouble." Zeelo said.

"Uh.. Do you know where we can find anyone called Gran Grandma?" Michiru asked before the female beastmen shifted into their beastman forms as they surrounded Michiru and the others.

"We're dead." Pinkie, Sonata and Fluttershy dreaded.

Later, Michiru and her group found themselves seeing Gran Grandma in her rabbit beastman form.

"You all sure got a lot guts for walking in here all morphed up like that." Elsa, in her lioness beastman form noted.

"And with these weapons and dukes up." A skunk beastwoman added.

"Um…" Michiru uttered timidly.

"Don’t play dumb with us! When it comes to gangs, morphing is a signal for a fight! You guys marched in here all morphed tells us that you’re looking for a fight! Is that it?" Elsa growled.

"Please, no. We come in peace!" Fluttershy begged.

"We can’t control it! Seriously!" Michiru said.

"None of us can change back from this form." Danyelle explained as Selene nodded in agreement.

"Wait, you can’t change back? What’re you?! Some kind of amateurs? Are you messing with me?" Elsa asked in suspicion as Gran Grandma eyed Mikey.

"Boy, are you from New York City?" Gran Grandma asked.

"Yeah. You heard of the news?" Mikey responded.

"Everyone in the city has. A lot of crazy stuff there, huh?" Gran Grandma added.

"Yeah, and I guess you know about the mutants?" Mikey answered before asking a question.

"The whole city was ordered to take a blood test." Gran Grandma responded.

"Anyway, I was a human until last year." Michiru explained.

"Most of us used to be humans." Zeelo added.

"Oh really? Most of you were humans?" Gran Grandma asked before her subordinates started laughing at that.

"You really think a pathetic excuse like that is gonna work here?" Elsa laughed.

"Hold it. Boy, the Kraang experimented with humans right?" Gran Grandma asked Mikey.

"Yeah, but me and my bros were originally baby turtles." Mikey answered.

"Either way, the girl and some of the others could be a Kraang lab experiments" Gran Grandma said.

"No way! I don’t remember seeing any Kraang at all! I don’t even know what they are!" Michiru responded as Usagi looked at his companions with confusion.

"We'll explain later." The Goofball Trio said to Usagi.

"Besides, there’s a student ID inside of my wallet, but it was stolen yesterday with some of my friends’ wallets too! We came here to look for it!" Michiru informed.

"It’s true..." Fluttershy agreed.

"Who says we have it?" Gran Grandma asked.

"The weasel-I mean Ms. Itami told me you might know something about it?" Michiru responded.

"Oh Marie, said that." Gran Grandma said as she showed a bunch of wallets, which Michiru, Sonata, Pinkie and Fluttershy recognized.

"Those are ours." Sonata said.

"Yeah! Those are our wallets! If you look inside and find the student ID, you’ll find out that I really am-" Michiru started to explain.

"So some of you are actually students then?" Gran Grandma asked.

"I don't like the way that sounded." Usagi growled.

"Huh?" Michiru asked in confusion.

"She asked if any of you are students!" Elsa explained.

"Uh… Yeah, that’s right. I am." Michiru answered.

"Fluttershy and I are students too." Pinkie added.

"Mm-hmm!" Fluttershy agreed.

"And if you really are students, that must mean you’re able to read and write." Gran Grandma noted.

"We wouldn't be Celestia and Luna's students if we weren't." Pinkie responded, unknowingly making Gran Grandma's enforcers flinch in terror at those name.

"The-The Demon Sisters." Elsa stuttered.

"The Demon Sisters? I thought that they’d be called the Celestial Sisters." Mikey noted.

"The Silver Wolf's Wrath. They're real?!" The skunk beastwoman dreaded.

"You kids should be careful with those names. But I'm willing to make a deal." Gran Grandma said.

"A deal?" James asked.

"I’ll give these wallets back if you do me a favor." Gran Grandma answered as the heroes were nervous, but later found themselves with little kids.

"That's a lot of kids." Pinkie noted as a chicken Beastman girl saw her and walked up to the weasel beastwoman. "Hi, little one."

"What do you need us to do?" Fluttershy asked as Pinkie Pie lifted the child up.

"I just want you to teach these kids to read and write." Gran Grandma said.

"I’ll help with that, I am a teacher after all." James responded.

"I had no idea that there were kids here." Michiru noticed as Pinkie's child kept clinging to her.

"You mind if I take her to get some fresh air?" Pinkie asked.

"Fine." Gran Grandma responded as Pinkie Pie left with the child and a suspicious Usagi following her.

"Pinkie, I think this Beastchild imprinted on you." Usagi softly said

"I have a feeling it’s that. The kid might be an orphan." Pinkie agreed.

"I'll go find Leo." Usagi responded as he ran off while Pinkie and her new child went back to the others.

"So, what's the deal with Gran Grandma?" Pinkie asked.

"Strangely enough, it was only to help these kiddos learn how to read and write." Mikey answered.

"How about it... What's your name?" Pinkie said to the girl.

"Gemma." The girl responded.

"Aww… That’s a really cute name." Pinkie gushed at that.

Meanwhile with Gran Grandma...

"The Silver Wolf's Wrath are their teachers!" Elsa shouted.

"We're good as dead!" The skunk beastwoman said in absolute terror.

"Now calm down, girls." Gran Grandma responded as she went into her human form.

"Calm down?! The Demon Sisters are coming!" A bear beastwoman dreaded.

High above on a rooftop, Shirou and Luna were watching, keeping an eye on the building.

"You sure they're here?" Luna asked.

"Yes." Shirou answered before seeing something on the streets. "The Family, now what do they want?"

"Beat it, Kusakabe! You came at a very hazardous time." Elsa said.

"I’m here for business. Don’t you know that? Why else would anyone actually come into this hellhole?" Kusakabe asked.

"Well, we're getting out of dodge while the getting good." Elsa responded.

"I already told you we don’t have the money for you right now." Gran Grandma added.

"No money? That’s not gonna cut it! If you ain’t got it, then ya better find a way to get it! Who should you girlies be thanking for letting you operate under the Gang? Give that a little thought, would ya?" Kusakabe mocked.

"What was that?!" Elsa asked in anger, going into her beastman form.

"You’re asking for it!" Kusakabe responded, going into a beastman form that was a hyena as he and Elsa growled, readying themselves for battle.

"Doesn't matter. We're leaving because the Demon Sisters are close by. If you're smart, you'll do the same." The skunk beastwoman responded.

"They’re here? Cool your head, Kusakabe." A deep voice ordered.

"B-Boss." Kusakabe stuttered, reverting back to his human form as a large man came.

"Three students of there's are here, Flip. If you know what's good for you, you'll find cover." Gran Grandma advised.

"I have no intention of fighting with women." Flip said.

"So you'll let us leave before they get here?" Gran Grandma assumed.

"We will once you pay what you owe." Flip responded as Elsa went back to her human form.

"Still, it’s not very often that we get a visit from you personally, Flip. Why now?" Gran Grandma asked.

"Well, naturally I have to pay my respects to the Gran Grandma from time to time." Flip answered.

"No need to be facetious. I can’t pay what I can’t pay, your presence doesn’t change that." Gran Grandma responded.

"Is that really true? You told me about those kids, right?" Flip asked, making Gran Grandma gasp. "Sell that off and you and your group will be free to go."

"What about the Sisters? I know even you fear them after they nearly killed you." Gran Grandma responded.

"That’s why I prefer doing business from the shadows." Flip answered.

Meanwhile, Usagi was rushing to find help until he bumped into Shirou and Luna. "Apologies. I'm in a hurry."

"Wait, are you Usagi?" Luna assumed.

"Yes, but I need to find Leonardo and the others!" Usagi said.

"We know where they are." Shirou responded.

"We have to get them. My group and a large group of kids are in danger." Usagi informed.

"What’s going on?!" Luna asked in concern as Usagi explained everything he knew to her and Shirou. "Not bad ninja work."

"Normally, such a remark would be insulting. But my friends have shown me otherwise." Usagi noted.

"But we’ll need to catch them in the act if we want to put them behind bars." Shirou informed.

"I'll take Usagi and get reinforcements. Stay in touch." Luna said.

"Alright. I’ll keep an eye on them." Shirou responded as Luna and Usagi ran to get reinforcements.

Back with Michiru's group, Pinkie Pie watched Gemma draw a large wolf and two alicorns. "Whatcha drawing there, sweetie?"

"The Silver Wolf and his Alicorn Followers." Gemma answered.

"The Silver Wolf and Alicorn Followers?" Michiru and her group wondered in confusion.

"You never heard the story?" Gemma asked.

"No, could you tell us?" Pinkie responded.

"The Silver Wolf is the Guardian of all Beastmen. My momma use to tell me whenever I get scared, I should pray to the Silver Wolf." Gemma answered.

"Wow." Pinkie awed in amazement.

"And I love you, Big Sis Pinkie." Gemma added as Pinkie Pie was surprised until she saw a picture of Gemma's real family with a Beastman that looked exactly like her.

"Don’t worry, Gemma. Big sister Pinkie Pie is gonna help care for you." Pinkie whimpered with a smile, her voice breaking and tears leaking from her eyes, deeply touched before she hugged Gemma as she hugged her back. But then everyone saw Gran Grandma come in.

Later, at the docks during the night, Michiru, Zeelo, Mikey, Sonata, Pinkie, Fluttershy, Danyelle, James, Selene, Gemma and the other kids were in a cage.

"What is going on?!" Michiru asked

"What’re you planning on doing with us?!" Zeelo added.

"I just thought I'd send you all on a little trip." Gran Grandma said.

"So, you’re planning on selling us off with the kids, aren’t you?" Danyelle assumed as Gemma cowered in Pinkie's arms, struggling not to cry.

"I could’ve gotten a higher price for them if they learned to read and write a little bit. Unfortunately, it turned into a bit of a rush order." Gran Grandma responded, leaving the newcomers shocked.

"Especially since we've got to get out of the city thanks to you four." Elsa added.

"What?" Mikey, Sonata, Pinkie and Fluttershy asked in confusion.

"We're not sticking around as those two Flying Terrors lay waste to the city." Elsa answered.

"Huh?" Mikey, Sonata, Pinkie and Fluttershy wondered, still confused.

"How can you do this to your own kids?!" Michiru growled in anger.

"I don’t recall saying that they were our children." Gran Grandma pointed out, catching Michru and her group off guard, except Pinkie.

"They're orphans, aren't they?" Pinkie assumed.

"One of them told you, didn’t they?" Gran Grandma responded as Pinkie looked at Gemma. "You're right. That one's parents and elder sister were killed getting her into the city. The rest I don't know. Come to think of it, you actually look like her mother and sister."

"You're a monster!" Fluttershy growled in anger.

"She's right." Usagi agreed as everyone saw that he had returned.

"So you came back. The weak live on by trampling the weaker. It’s a matter of survival. That’s the kind of place this is." Gran Grandma informed as the cage started being lifted by the crane. As Usagi attacked to save his friends, the kids panicked.

"Gemma, listen. We're getting out of here and I'm taking you to Canterlot with me. I promise, I'll never leave." Pinkie promised.

"Pinky Promise?" Gemma scarcely asked

"Pinkie promise." Pinkie responded as she did her signature promise, vowing to Gemma that she'll keep living on.

Usagi threw his sword to jam the crane, buying the group more time.

"Big mistake ditching your sword." Elsa scoffed.

"True..." Usagi admitted before smiling. "But I have friends. NOW!"

A rainbow blur flew in, attacking Elsa. "Aw yeah! How'd you like that?" Rainbow Dash taunted as Michiru, Zeelo and Sonata started to shake the cage by poking out their tails before enlarging them to help swing the cage more, but failed as they tails reverted back to normal.

"Usagi, get everyone out of the cage. We'll cover you." Leo said amongst the carnage.

"Understoo-What the?!" Usagi gasped as he couldn't believe what he was seeing, drawing everyone else's attention, leaving them surprised as well, seeing Michiru, Zeelo and Sonata's arms stretching out. Everyone saw Michiru, Zeelo and Sonata’s stretched arms pull the crane operator, before the cage fell down, causing the crash to break it open as a giant fur/scaleball from three tails bounced out before they opened, revealing Michiru, Zeelo, Sonata, the others, the kids and the crane operator.

Suddenly, a loud screech was heard, making the beastwomen panicked, knowing that scream was their doom. Everyone saw an Alicorn Beastwoman, but she looked like a demon. Her wings were big enough to wrap around her body, she had talons that could rip through steal, fangs that could pierce flesh, eyes as blue as tsunami, a horn sharpened as any spear.

"Whoa! Who knew Luna could get that scary?" Mikey whispered to Michiru and her group before Luna screeched again as she lunged at Gran Grandma's enforcers, then Shirou joined in on the fray, punching the Elsa.

"And who are you?!" Elsa asked.

"We’ll show no mercy for those who sell beastmen to humans, even if you’re a woman." Shirou declared.

"Is that right?!" Elsa growled as Shirou fought alongside Luna and they were beating Gran Grandma’s enforcers.

"Fluttershy, can you hold Gemma's for a minute?" Pinkie asked.

"Uh… Sure." Fluttershy answered as Pinkie handed Gemma to her.

"I'll be right back. Big sis just needs to hurt the bad bunny." Pinkie assured Gemma.

"I’ll close my eyes." Gemma said before Pinkie chased after Gran Grandma as she tried to escape.

Soon enough, Gran Grandma ran into a dead end, before lifting her hands in surrender. "Fine, I surrender. You have to show respect for your elders."

"I should... But you don't deserve it." Pinkie growled as her hair started to become straight, losing its poofiness.

"What?" Gran Grandma asked before Usagi and Mikey came to help Pinkie beat her up.

"As my friend is fond of saying... Booyahkasa!" Usagi shouted as he kicked Gran Grandma unconscious. "That felt good."

"Agreed." Mikey, Pinkie and Sonata said in agreement as Danyelle arrived before cuffing Gran Grandma.

"What are you doing, Danyelle?" Usagi asked.

"Doing my job. I am a cop after all." Danyelle answered as the police soon arrived at the scene, arresting the rest of Gran Grandma's group.

“You came to the rescue again, Ogami. And with Luna no less.” The dog beastman detective from before known as Yuji Tachiki said as Luna perched high, making sure Gran Grandma or her enforcers tried escaping.

"It was a favor for the mayor." Shirou responded.

"What about the kids?" Michiru asked as she showed up with the rest of the newcomers to Anima City while Pinkie held Gemma close.

"And who are they?" Yuji noticed.

"Newcomers. We’re looking after most of them." Shirou responded.

"Not exactly a great welcome to the city, huh? The kids will be under our protection, don’t worry. And there’s an institution for kids with no living relatives." Yuji answered as he saw Pinkie, not willing to give up Gemma, who fell asleep in her arms. "Although that kid looks attached to the weasel, so we’re willing to give her a sibling adoption form, if you don’t mind." Yuji added as Pinkie sighed in relief, but grew worried on how she was going to explain this to her family.

"You know Pinkie, this kinda makes you and Gemma like me and Scootaloo." Rainbow Dash remembered.

"I know." Pinkie agreed.

"I'll tell your parents about the... New addition." Luna informed.

"Thank you." Pinkie said in gratitude before Michiru ran to a beaten-up Gran Grandma, who was being lead into the police car.

"What do you want?" Gran Grandma scoffed.

"How could you? Who actually sells children?" Michiru asked in disappointment.

"What?" Gran Grandma noted in confusion.

"You may be a beastman, but your heart should still be human!" Michiru responded.

"Heh. Oh, I see. Looks like you and your friends really aren’t beastmen after all." Gran Grandma said.

"Huh?" The newcomers asked in confusion.

"Let’s see how you girls feel once you know how it is to live as women in a beastman world. We’ll talk then." Gran Grandma responded as she tossed the wallets to Michiru and the other girls, just as promised.

"Bad bunny gone?" Gemma sleepily asked.

"Yeah it is, Gemma." Pinkie answered as Gemma went back to sleep.

"Rarity, you have any disinfectant?" Rainbow Dash asked.

"Yes." Rarity answered as she and the other kunoichi started disinfecting their wallets.

"Tell me, just what were you all doing there?" Shirou asked.

"You two were spying us, huh?" Michiru assumed.

"Yeah." Shirou answered.

"If they saw me coming, they'd have panicked and fled." Luna added.

"What are you?" Michiru asked.

"Depends who exactly you ask." Luna responded as she gently petted Gemma's head while the girl slept.

"The ID?" Shirou responded.

"Oh, right. I hope everything is still in here." Michiru answered.

"Ya'll sure ya want to touch that after where that varmit had it?" Applejack asked as Michiru handed the IDs over before agreeing with the black bear beastwoman.

"Hand sanitizer, anyone?" Mondo offered.

"Thanks." Michiru said in gratitude before all of the ninjas from New York and Canterlot City instinctively transformed into their human forms while Shirou looked at the IDs.

"I found an abandoned warehouse for you all to stay while you're here." Luna said.

"Thank you, Luna." Leo responded in gratitude as Shirou's eyes widened in shock at the Human labels on all of the IDs.

Meanwhile… In the ocean near Anima City, a fish head poked out of the water.

“So this is Anima City. Muy bien. This will give me a new opportunity for crime.” A mysterious male spoke before swimming closer to Anima City.

And on the rooftops of Anima City, there was a silhouette of a humanoid tiger.

“To think that canine beastman and I are alike now. We both have prosthetic metal arms. And he and his sister are hiding in Anima City.” A second male voice noted as he jumped across the roofs, trying to find his targets.

On the road leading into Anima City, a silhouette of a young woman was walking towards the city after appearing in a flash of yellow light.

"I better find out what's going on here and not blow my cover, or that old pervy geezer will let me have it." The woman said as she gained a desert-yellow aura, before transforming into a Thorny Devil beastman, continuing to walk into the city.

Back with the group...

“Thought it would be hard for an old guy with a stick up the ass to learn...” Danyelle quipped, making the others start laughing and Luna slightly giggle before she nuzzled Shirou a bit.

Leo was heading to the Beastman Co-op with the Dazzlings to check on Michiru.

“You think there really is a way to fix all of us?” Sonata asked.

“Listen, I’m sure we’ll find out what’s going on with you three and Sunset, but I think the rest of us are like this because our Equestrian Magic is helping us blend in.” Leo pointed out.

“I hope you're right, Leo.” Adagio noted.

“We’re here!” Sonata called out.

“No need to shout, Sonata.” Aria responded.

“Sorry.” Sonata apologized as the four soon reached Michiru’s room, who had a leaf on her head and backflipped in the air before falling on her but as the leaf floated back onto her head. “Hey Michy, what are you doing?”

“I was trying to go back into my human form, but it’s no use!” Michiru groaned as Melissa showed up.

“What are you kids up to now?” Melissa asked.

“I was hoping this would revert me back to human form.” Michiru informed.

“I just came to invite Michiru to hang out with me and my friends.” Sonata explained.

Melissa spoke “You and your friends are as odd as they come, Michiru. Ah, by the way, you guys and those in the factory got a call from the Municipal Office.”

“A phone call?” Michiru asked.

“It's probably the DNA test results we asked our brainiacs to run.” Leo noted.

“We don’t know for sure, but let’s get the others and bring them along just in case.” Aria pointed out.

“No, everyone else is still getting the factory situated. Let them get things up and running and fill them in later.” Leo reminded.

“Hey, I’m coming along too.” A voice called out, revealed to be Sunset as she showed up with Zeelo and Haru.

“Alright, let's go." Leo declared as the group moved out.

Later, the group were at the Municipal Office with Mayor Rose and Koichi as Michiru, Sunset, Zeelo, Haru and the Dazzlings held some kind of envelope.

“These are the proof of residence and insurance for Ms. Kagemori and those living in the factory." Koichi explained.

“It seems they were still being processed. Consider it an apology for the medical center bomb incident. You and your friends went through quite a bit." Mayor Rose added.

“Thank you.” Michiru said in gratitude while Raph and Usagi stood on opposite side of Mayor Rose, acting as her security.

“So, you doing alright, Raph?” Leo asked.

"Yeah, security work is not bad.” Raph shrugged.

“You and the others are now legal citizens of Anima City. Welcome to the capital of the Beastmen.” Mayor Rose greeted.

“Quite an honor, really.” Usagi said.

“Uh… Right. Oh, I forgot. *Brings out cracked phone* Let me return this now.” Michiru offered.

“That’s alright. You can hold onto it.” Mayor Rose responded.

“But I don’t have any use for it. It doesn’t connect to the outside world’s internet. No matter what I do, it only brings up the site for the municipal office.” Michiru explained.

“Yes. Under the current laws of the Beastmen Special Ward, information from human society is restricted.” Koichi informed.

“That’s not fair!” Michiru said.

“Ma’am, we have friends whose families need to be informed of this situation.” Leo added.

“Look, this is a good opportunity, so pay attention.” Mayor Rose said as a screen came down behind the group as they saw what was on it. “Beastmen, or animalized human beings, are a separate species from Homo sapiens. Due to a special gene sequence of Beast Deoxyribonucleic Acid, we can make our bodies undergo transformations. Throughout ancient times, Beastmen imitated the forms of the animal gods that their tribes worshiped, as if they wanted to draw closer to the gods.”

“Okay…” Michiru noted as Adagio was recording the whole conversation for the others.

“What happens if two different species of BNA...” Sonata started.

“BNA... I like it.” Mayor Rose smiled.

“Thanks. So, what's in the sense of crossbreeding?” Sonata finished her question.

“The result will either be a lion or a tiger, but never a liger. Also, humans who do not possess the BNA can never become a beastman.” Mayor Rose answered.

“Yeah but… as for me and some of the others…” Michiru pointed out.

“Yes, the unthinkable has actually happened when it comes to you and your friends. However, it seems that mythical Beastmen are slowly making a return. Beastmen have always lived in this world, without coming into contact with Homo sapiens. In forests, mountains, islands and deserts. However, with the recent expansion of humanity’s domain, our discovery simply became a matter of time. Once the existence of animalized humans became apparent, conflicts ensued, along the way Anima City was established. And now here all of you are.” Mayor Rose nodded.

“I see...” Michiru noted.

“We'll keep this quiet. But I think the city will be more on edge since Luna is here.” Leo pointed out.

“If you knew why, you'd understand why. We have examined your genomes. It’s different from normal BNA. Michiru, Zeelo, Haru, Danyelle and Zack’s are unstable, Selene’s is semi-stable while Sunset and the Dazzlings’ seemed magical and otherworldly, but when you transform, your cells undergo a very explosive cellular mitosis. We believe this is likely the reason you can change shape at will, though it’s just a theory at this point.” Mayor Rose explained.

“Can it be cured?” Michiru asked.

“We haven’t reached any conclusions yet. We will need a little more time.” Mayor Rose responded.

“Meantime, I guess we should try and get situated.” Sunset said.

“Agreed. You can continue to rely on the Beast Cooperative for now.” Mayor Rose nodded.

“Okay.” Michiru responded.

“Come on, Michy.” Sonata added as the group were soon outside, with Haru wearing her cloak again.

“Well, that raised more questions than it answered. Doesn’t matter, this thing really is useless.” Michiru sighed as Pinkie, Gemma, Casey and Mikey showed up.

“Hey Sonata. Hi Michiru, hey Zeelo. Hi everyone.” Pinkie greeted.

“‘sup.” Casey added.

“What happened?” Mikey asked.

"Hey, guys. Big plans?” Michiru replied.

“Well-“ Pinkie was about to answer before she was cut off by a familiar voice. “Yoo-hoo! Little Tanuki.”

“Oh, it’s Itami.” Michiru noticed.

“Mink, remember?” Marie reminded.

“Beat it, Ferret Face!” Casey growled.

“Anyway, I’ve got a hot commodity in stock today. Wanna take a peak?” Marie offered.

"Naw, I’m good." Michiru refused while walking off, before sliding back. "Like what?"

“Not interested.” Mikey scoffed.

“Are you sure? I can make it worth your time. I'll even throw a plush hermit crab for the little one.” Marie smirked, getting Gemma’s interest. “For free even.”

“...Make it good.” Pinkie sighed.

Later, in an alley, Marie opened a briefcase, having smartphone items as Gemma hugged her hermit crab plushie. “An illegal smartphone that can bypass Anima City’s firewalls. If you want just a SIM card, I’ll give you 50% off. This offer ends in five… Four…”

“But I don’t have any...” Michiru tried to explain.

“Three... Two...” Marie continued counting down.

“Can you start a tab? In Mr. Shirou’s name, not mine.” Michiru asked.

“Or under Luna's name?" Mikey added as Marie flinched hard at that.

“On second thought, on the house!” Marie responded in terror.

Meanwhile, at a harbor, Kusakabe was surrounded by gangsters while beaten up and tied to a chair.

“I tried switching to an electronic cigarette because my daughter insisted, but it just doesn’t compare." A man said.

“I’m telling the truth. I don’t know where the medicine is being funneled yet-" Kusakabe tried to explain before he screamed in pain from the burning on his forehead from the lit cigar.

“Ogami Shirou and Luna have their sights set on you. I would say you got a huge problem. Answer me this, Kusakabe, how does a man that has no boundaries settle all his scores?" The man asked before some of the big man’s goons went into their beastmen forms as they drew firearms behind him as the leader turned around, seeing Shirou, Luna and Baron in their beastmen forms.

“Hey Flip, we’ve got business with that man.” Shirou said.

“Sure, no problem. I do not want any trouble.” Flip said, pretending to be scared of Luna, but then he smirked without a hint of fear as he took his cigar out while one of his goons turned into a lynx beastman. “But not quite yet. *Crushes cigar under his shoe* We were just finishing some business of our own." Flip pointed out as he turned and punched Kusakabe, before he and the rest of his gang started leaving. “Now our business is done.”

“Flip!” Luna roared as the group was leaving.

“Uh Boss, maybe that wasn't a smart idea with her.” Kusakabe shivered in fear.

“Just be glad I didn’t throw that tied rock onto a passing boat’s propeller, would’ve been worse.” Flip pointed out.

“Luna, calm down.” Shirou said as Luna kept her temper under control.

“Just go, Flip.” Luna growled.

“That was the plan from the start after my talk with Kusakabe.” Flip said as he and the rest of his gang left.

“Flip, one warning: Do anything to get me mad while I'm in the city... And I will legally see to it you lose custody of your daughter!” Luna responded with a smirk as Flip's fell in horror. “I’m not bluffing. I will make sure you never see her again."

That angered Flip to no end as he just left with his gang.

Meanwhile, at the town square of Anima City, Michiru was checking her phone and logging into Facebook while the Goofball Trio, Gemma, Zeelo, Haru, Adagio, Aria and Sunset were with her.

“Well, I got to get going. I promised I would pick up some pillows.” Adagio remembered.

"Yeah, and I need to pick up cooking supplies.” Aria added.

“Leo’s already back at the factory. Then again, I still must scout the city a bit to make sure I can map the place.” Sunset noted.

“Good luck.” Casey said when Sunset, Adagio and Aria left as Michiru logged into Facebook before seeing something that said, “From everyone at Facebook” with a cake and a “Happy Birthday” above that, making Michiru gasp a bit. She found a message from her cousin in Canterlot City as Michiru couldn’t help but feel down before she noticed a live video and pressed it.

"Hey guys! Everyone has those busy days when they need to run out the door in a hurry. Well, let me show you the best makeup for the job. Even if you are short on time, it will look like you spent all morning on it.” The female said while on live footage as Michiru looked up and saw the same statue in the live footage, making her stand up in surprise.

“Guys, she's over here.” Mikey pointed out

“Que?” Zeelo asked as the group ran over to the statue.

“There’s a human living here?” Michiru asked in shock.

“This is the foundation I’m using today.” The female said.

“Hey, uh...” Michiru tried to call out.

“Hi, there!” Pinkie greeted, catching the girl's attention as she turned around, seeing the group.

“Um, hi. Sorry, but are you a...” Michiru was about to ask before the group then felt something whack their heads as they suddenly fell unconscious.

Later, bags were taken off their heads as the group came to, finding themselves tied to chairs.

“Huh? What is this?” Michieu noticed.

"How did-?!” Zeelo was about to ask.

“Guys, Gemma's not here!” Pinkie gasped.

“Hey, scumbags. Who ordered you to approach the mistress? Let’s hear it.” A voice ordered as the group saw a big and intimidating gangster man in front of them.

“Mistress?” Haru repeated in confusion.

“First off, uh, where are we exactly? And second… who’s the mistress?” Michiru asked.

“I’ll ask the questions. You punks approached the mistress knowing full well she was the Family’s daughter, didn’t you?” The man growled.

“The family?” Michiru noticed.

“Kinda on the nose, don’t ya think?” Sonata deadpanned.

“Hmm? Do you mean… that gang from back then?” Michiru remembered.

“Seems I’ve jogged your memory. Now spill it! What was your motive for getting close to the mistress?” The man demanded as he transformed into a pelican beastman.

“Easy, dude. We just saw her and wanted to say hello. We didn't think it was wrong to be friendly.” Mikey yelped.

“Well... Actually, no. There's no rules on just giving a friendly hello.” A voice noted as a young white-haired man with blue eyes showed up with a sheathed katana.

“M-Mikey’s right! We were just watching her on Facebook!” Michiru said.

“Facebook? Are you really on Facebook?” A female voice asked as the group notices the source of the voice, revealed to be a girl leaning over a ledge railing.

“Yeah, but only because my friends and I are new here.” Michiru answered.

“So you’re from the mainland? No way! That’s so cool!” The girl cheered as she jumped and transformed into a dolphin Beastwoman. “You mean it? Whereabouts? Tokyo? Shibuya? Harajuku? Omotesando?”

“Closer to the countryside.” Michiru answered as Gemma came out with her hair braided.

“Nina, are you done playing?” Gemma asked.

“Oh right! My name’s Nina! What’s yours?” Nina responded.

“M-Michiru.” Michiru answered as Gemma came up and hugged Pinkie.

“Nina was very nice. We played while you were busy." Gemma informed.

“Really?” Pinkie asked with a smile.

“Yeah. And you haven't met Lothian yet.” Nina giggled.

“So you're a beastman?” Michiru asked.

"Does that mean I look like a human to you? Alright! I pretend to be a human online, but I'm really a sparkling beastman in disguise! You can leave now.” Nina said to the pelican goon before he left as the boy untied the ropes, setting the group free. “Thanks, Bliscar!”

“Not a problem.” Bliscar responded.

“Thanks, Nina. We owe you big time.” Mikey said in gratitude.

“No need, the least I can do for new friends.” Nina assured.

“Wait, so then is your dad a-?” Michiru started to ask before Nina took a seat while forming back into her human form.

"I actually hate my dad. *Looks at a picture of a dolphin beastman* That's my grandfather. My dad told me that he was caught by a human and cooked in soy sauce a while before I was born." Nina said.

“Seriously?” Michiru asked.

“Nasty.” Mikey gagged.

“That's disgusting... And slightly cannibalistic.” Sonata added.

“I know, right? As if something like that could even happen. I got caught recently listening to human music, so I’ve been grounded. He says it’s indecent and disgusting.” Nina scoffed.

“Sheesh, thick headed much?” Pinkie asked.

“I'm here, Nina!” A female voice called out as a young woman with white hair and blue eyes showed up.

"Hi, Lothian! I know! Let me show you guys something!” Nina remembered.

“Uh, sure.” Pinkie said as Nina soon brought out some stuff.

“Here! These are my treasures! This is stuff that washed up on shore. And some stuff I got as souvenirs. Do they make you miss it there? *Points to a Bluetooth earbud* Do you know what that is? It got washed up without his partner. *As Michiru picked said earbud up* They have cordless ones there, isn’t that right?” Nina asked while Michiru said nothing as she remembered something.

“Pretty cool stuff, Nina.” Mikey noted.

“Heehee! Thanks. But Michiru, you and your friends are so different from everyone else. People who come here never wanna talk about the other side. Do you want to go back?” Nina giggled as that struck a chord in Sonata.

“That's a little dangerous right now, Nina.” Casey noted as Michiru, Sonata and Zeelo faced a window.

“It’s just… I can’t go back like this. But I wanna go back.” Michiru said as Sonata and Zeelo couldn’t help but agree with her before something happened, shocking Mikey, Pinkie and Casey.

“Michiru?” Nina noticed.

“Nina, we're what you might call Refugees. We fled here without our families.” Pinkie explained while holding Gemma in her arms before Michiru, Sonata and Zeelo looked at the window, seeing their reflection and gasped in surprise at that.

“I’m back! I’ve changed! Yeah, but how? *Cheer* I have no tail, I can fit normal spaces! I can wear hats again! It’s me! I’m finally back to the real me!” Michiru cheered in excitement.

“Wow! I can’t believe this!” Sonata agreed.

“Hahahaha! Bien! Muy bien!” Zeelo laughed.

“Whoa, from how ya look, now I know you’re Fishface’s bro.” Mikey noticed.

“You look nice, Michiru.” Gemma smiled.

“Were you three morphed this whole time?” Nina asked.

“Uh… Yeah, we were. We… We forgot to change back into human form.” Michiru nervously answered.

“Yeah... That's it.” Mikey agreed.

“So now you can go back. Like, you can go to the mainland!” Nina said.

“Whoa, easy there Nina. It's not as easy as it sounds.” Sonata pointed out.

"Whaddya mean?” Lothian asked while Bliscar put his sheathed katana into a guitar suitcase.

“I'm... One of the New York City mutants.” Mikey explained, making Bliscar freeze before he was up in Mikey’s face.

“WOW! No wonder you’re so familiar! *Rapidly shakes Mikey’s hand* Bliscar Megado, HUGE fan of you and your brothers! *Realizes his behavior before clearing his throat with an embarrassed blush* Sorry about that.” Bliscar apologized.

“Okay?” Mikey said.

"But it’s true, Bliscar is a huge fan of you and your brothers. You should’ve seen him when he saw the Kraang invasion news.” Lothian giggled.

“It's cool, bro. We're all friends here.” Mikey shrugged.

“Mikey, the Equestrian Magic turned us into Beastman, so you can go into your human form without Donnie’s disguise gizmo.” Casey pointed out.

“Good point. Let's go!” Mikey declared.

Later, the group were at the beach with Nina, Bliscar and Lothian.

“Nina! Hold on a sec, would ya?” Michiru requested.

“Please, be careful.” Gemma asked.

“So listen.” Nina started.

“To what?” Mikey asked.

“This girl Lisa on Facebook is throwing a house party. And guess who’s been invited? Yep, me.” Nina answered.

“Awesome! Let's go!” Pinkie cheered.

“Why do I have that red flag feeling that it will end in disaster?” Haru noted.

“Ride on our backs and we’ll be there in no time. What’s the problem if we’re back before anyone notices.” Nina said as Bliscar and Lothian transformed into Great White Shark beastmen.

“Sweet!” Mikey cheered before Sonata had an idea.

“Ooh! I wonder if…” Sonata started as she focused before she turned into a Siren Beastwoman. “Nice! I can’t wait to tell my big sisters about this!”

“Why do you wanna go there so badly?” Michiru asked.

“So that I’m not… stuck in this city for my entire life. Besides… it’s so sparkly there!" Nina answered as Mikey and company looked at each other and agreed.

“Okay, we'll take you. But you have to promise us that if there's trouble, we leave immediately.” Mikey said.

“Okay!” Nina nodded.

“Alright, let's get moving.” Mikey said.

“Yeah. The humans would probably think I’m wearing cat ears, a mask, a fake tail and gloves.” Haru noted.

“Then let’s go.” Michiru smiled.

“Party time!” Casey whooped.

*Meanwhile, back at the house.*

“Oh Nina! Daddy’s home!” Flip called out with laughter as he was carrying tons of stuff for his daughter. “Nina! Eh? *Peeks from behind the stack to the left* Sweet cakes?”

The pelican beastman goon was on his hands and knees with his head bowed to the ground. “Please forgive me!”

The beastman had beads of sweat in his head as Flip became angry while becoming a beluga beastman with a growl. He didn’t care about the warning anymore, because he was going to find and protect his daughter, one way or another.

But he didn't notice Luna spying on him. “*On her phone* Celestia... Flip is being a bad boy.”

“He’s being overprotective of his daughter again?” Celestia asked on the other side.

“What do you think?” Luna deadpanned.

"Look, I understand he means well for his daughter, but I worry that he might go too far.” Celestia said on the other side.

“Just get here and help me deal with him. You know he's terrified of you more than he's protective of his daughter.” Luna responded.

"Alright, but you never know what a cornered animal might do.” Celestia pointed out on the other side of the phone.

“When it comes to you, he's lunchmeat.” Luna argued.

"Just trying to be careful here. You never know if being cornered will only strengthen his resolve to protect his family.” Celestia explained on the other side before Luna hung up.

"If Mikey told Nina the story of the Shredder, something tells me Flip is going to be alone for a while.” Luna wondered.

Meanwhile, Mikey was just finishing the very story “And that is the poison of Hatred.”

Nina wasn’t sure what to say about that as the group soon reached shore.

"We're here!” Casey declared before bringing out a device. “Oh yeah, Donnie gave me a spare disguise gizmo just in case.”

“Then let's roll!” Mikey declared.

"Wait, maybe we should use this. Ready, Haru?” Sonata asked while going into her human form.

“Me?” Haru gasped.

“This won’t turn you back to normal, but it’ll help ya blend in.” Sonata explained as she grabbed the device and used it on Haru, making her look like her human self. “Not bad.”

The group then got into their human forms while going up to the street.

“That was a lot further than I thought.” Nina noted.

“Still, it was a good swim.” Bliscar noted.

“It was a good work out.” Sonata agreed as the group got onto the street before Michiru noticed a policeman on a bike heading their way from the left.

“Oh no! We have to hide!” Michiru gasped.

"Huh? Why’s that?” Nina asked.

“Because some of the cops are in on hunting beastmen!” Michiru explained.

“Easy, let's not do anything hasty.” Casey pointed out.

“You kids! *As Michiru flinched while he rode by* This area isn’t well-lit, you should be careful.” The policeman advised as he
simply kept riding along while on-duty.

“Huh?” Michiru said in confusion.

“Uh, will do officer. Have a nice night.” Mikey responded.

“I will. Thank you.” The policeman said in gratitude.

“Michiru, you worry too much. How did you even live when you were here?” Nina asked.

“As long as we stay calm, we'll blend in.” Pinkie said.

Later, the group was walking on the sidewalk.

"That’s it over there!” Nina gasped in excitement while pointing at quite a tall building.

“Then let's hurry. Gemma, stay close to me.” Pinkie requested.

“Okay.” Gemma nodded.

Later, the group got into an elevator as it went up.

“Quiet night.” Casey noted before a ding was soon heard as the door opened, revealing a party as Nina smiled in excitement.

“Whoa Nina, calm down.” Sonata advised as there was music, a lot of people partying, sweet treats and an aquarium as Michiru and the others looked around before a familiar song played, making Michiru remember again. “GREAT SONG!”

“Michiru!” Nina called out as she, Bliscar and Lothian showed up, with the two girls trying some macaroons. “So this is what macaroons taste like! Huh? What’s wrong? Are you alright?”

“Yeah, you look like you want to cry.” Mikey noticed.

“Yeah, I’m fine.” Michiru responded.

“So... should we not have come?” Nina asked.

“No! I’m glad to be home.” Michiru answered.

“Michy, it's okay to be upset. We can leave right now if you’re not ok.” Pinkie responded.

“Yeah, I don't care about this party if you're not happy.” Nina admitted.

“Really, I’m okay.” Michiru assured.

“Is that Nina?” A voice noticed as Nina turned around, seeing a woman with a rabbit mask. “You’re Nina, aren’t you? You really came! Glad to finally meet you, you know, in person.”

“*Gasp!* Wait, are you Lisa? This is great!” Nina cheered as she jumped into the air while going into her beastman form before landing, much to Michiru and the others’ concern as she realized her mistake.

“Oh no.” Michiru dreaded.

“Get ready to run.” Mikey said as Lisa lifted her mask, revealing her eyes.

“Whoa. No way, no way, no way! Nina was a beastman all along? And you’re even a dolphin?! That’s so cute!” Lisa said in excitement.

“Huh?” Nina said in confusion.

“Huh?” Michiru agreed, equally confused.

“Que?” Zeelo gasped.

“You guys are cool with Beastmen?” Casey asked.

“Give me a hand, everyone!” Lisa said as some male partygoers picked Nina up and carried her to the stage with Lisa. “Listen up, you guys! We have a very fitting guest at our beastman costume party tonight! The beastman, Nina!”

The crowd cheered as the others were still confused.

“Something's not right here.” Mikey noted.

“Did you forget to bring your costumes? One of you can have these. I’d give other costumes to your friends, but that’s all I got right now.” A female partygoer said while putting some cat ears on Michiru.

“We cannot begin to imagine the pain and suffering that Nina has endured, as she struggled against discrimination. It must have been so hard.” Lisa noted.

“Huh? No, I haven’t really...” Nina tried to explain.

“Let’s give a round of applause for Nina’s beauty and bravery in the face of hardship!” Lisa declared, causing the crowd to cheer and clap as Nina started getting more excited.

“I don't like the looks of this.” Pinkie noted.

“Same since I’ve got a major red flag warning in my mind.” Haru agreed.

Meanwhile, Shirou was taking a nap on a couch before a knock was heard.

“Shirou! Phone!” Melissa called out.

“Shirou, we got trouble.” Luna said.

*A few minutes later...*

“Mr. Ogami. Luna. Do either of you realize where Michiru and her friends are right now, and who they are with? They're over there associating with Flip’s daughter. If the Family should learn of this, there will be serious consequences.” Mayor Rose informed on the phone.

“So you’re telling Luna, Baron and I to bring them back before anything happens?” Shirou asked.

"Yes. Thank you.” Mayor Rose confirmed on the phone as Shirou sighed, annoyed with what was going on.

“And it seems like Haru is with them as well.” Baron noticed.

“Relax, Mayor Rose. I called Celestia over to help. You know how terrified Flip is of her.” Luna smirked.

“But I’m certain Celestia has told you, you don’t know what a cornered beast or parent could attempt.” Mayor Rose pointed out.

“Something tell me Flip is going to be hurt, but not by us.” Luna noted.

“What kind of students do you have?” Shirou asked.

“Ninjas.” Luna answered.

“Why do I love her?” Shirou mentally thought to himself.

Meanwhile, at the docks, three cars were driving forward before Shirou stopped the leading car with his foot, denting the hood and causing air bags to burst out. Then the pelican beastman leaned out the window. “You idiot! If you’re trying to die, do it elsewhere!”

“My friends and I are looking for Flip.” Shirou said.

“Is he here, perchance?” Baron asked while showing up.

“Like I'd tell... *Celestia showing up* You.” The beastman noticed.

“Boo.” Celestia simply said as all of Flip's men ran for their lives, calling her the Solar Terror.

Then a window lowered, showing Flip in his beastman form, showing absolutely no fear, especially of Celestia. “I’m busy right now. Move it.”

“Flip, I can assure you that Nina is perfectly safe. She's befriended some of my students who are highly trained ninjas.” Celestia responded.

“What kind of school are you teaching, Celestia?” Flip asked.

“A humane one, Flip.” Celestia answered as that only seemed to anger Flip a bit more.

“You’re planning to start a war with the humans, aren’t you?” Shirou assumed.

“And what if I were?” Flip replied with his own question.

“We’ll get your daughter and bring her back.” Shirou answered.

“Why would you do that?” Flip asked.

“Will you leave this to us, or throw down here and now? You can decide.” Shirou responded.

“Hmmm... You have until tomorrow midnight. If she’s not back here by then, you can kiss ‘em goodbye.” Flip said before closing the window as Celestia sighed at that.

"Come on, kids. Bring her back.” Celestia mentally thought to herself.

“Your daughter will come home... But her opinion will change.” Luna said.

Back at the party, Nina jumped into the air with a splash as the crowd cheered while she was moving backwards in the water on her tail. Then she jumped through a hoop before swimming back to Michiru and the others. “Did you see that last one?”

“Look Nina, let’s head home.” Michiru said.

“How come?” Nina asked.

“I got a bad feeling about this party now.” Mikey noted.

“Same here...” Haru agreed as Nina was about to object but she saw how scared Gemma was and remembered her promise.

“...Just 3 more minutes then we can leave.” Nina said.

“This isn’t why. I don’t know, but something’s weird. It doesn’t feel right. This isn’t the place I wanted to come home to.” Michiru explained.

“Why? All of these people here are nice. Wait, are you jealous that my best friend’s getting all the attention?” Lothian asked.

“No, it's not that.” Sonata answered.

“I'm just getting some bad vibes from these people.” Mikey noted.

“How often are his feelings correct?” Nina wondered.

“All the time.” Pinkie, Sonata and Casey answered.

“Trust us. His bragging isn't humble.” Casey pointed out.

"Hey, you ever wonder why beaver Beastmen don't work at Lumber Mills?” A male partygoer asked his friends.

"We're leaving!” Nina sternly said.

“That was easy.” Sonata noticed in surprise.

“Let me find Lisa and tell her we're leaving.” Nina assured.

“Meh, it's only polite.” Mikey shrugged before Michiru’s phone rang.

“We better find someplace quiet to take that call.” Casey noted.

“Yeah, I know where, but only Pinkie, Sonata and Gemma can come along.” Michiru pointed out.

“By all means. We'll go find Nina and makes sure she's safe.” Casey responded.

“Thanks.” Lothian said in gratitude.

“Yeah, we appreciate that.” Bliscar agreed as Michiru, Pinkie, Sonata and Gemma were soon in the girls’ bathroom before she took the ears off her while looking at the mirror.

“Seriously, what am I doing here?” Michiru asked.

“This isn't like Canterlot City.” Pinkie pointed out.

“Wait, what? My cousin is from Canterlot City. She goes to... Crystal Prep, I think.” Michiru remember as Pinkie’s eyes widened at that before Michiru’s phone rang again with the girl putting her phone on speaker. "Hello?”

"I don’t care if any of you leave Anima City or not. Do what you want, but Flip’s daughter needs to come home now.” Shirou said on the phone.

“Huh? How did you find out?” Michiru asked in surprise.

"Flip is on the verge of starting a war with the humans. My friends and I are headed to the harbor there now. Take care of things by the time we arrive. Got it?” Shirou ordered.

“Wait! You can’t just-*Call ends* Ugh!” Michiru growled

“Rude, much.” Sonata noted.

“Let's get the others and get back to the city.” Pinkie said.

“Anyone else think it's weird Nina wanted to go after hearing something about a Lumber Mill?” Michiru noticed.

“Maybe it's the stereotyping.” Gemma wondered.

*At the boat...*

"You’re leaving matters in someone else’s hands? Will it start snowing now too?” Marie curiously asked before Luna and Celestia glared at the mink, silently telling her to shut up.

*Back at the bathroom...*

“Why?” Michiru growled.

"Girls, we got trouble!” Sonata pointed out while looking outside the bathroom.

“Whaddya mean?” Pinkie asked before two female partygoers came in.

“I’ve never seen a real beastman before!” The first female partygoer noted.

“Me neither! But really, isn’t it kinda scary? Aren’t they like, basically half-animal?” The second female partygoer asked.

“Right? No way I’d ever live with them.” The first female partygoer agreed as Pinkie moved Gemma closer to her.

“Don't morph.” Pinkie said.

“I’ll try...” Gemma responded as a blonde high-school girl in track clothes showed up.

"You alright?" The girl asked.

“Everything's alright. Right now, we got to get Nina and the boys and scram.” Sonata urged.

“Don’t forget Haru and Lothian.” Pinkie added.

“Right, let's get moving.” Sonata nodded.

The five girls came out, before seeing something that made Michiru gasp.

“What's wrong?” Pinkie asked before Michiru ran instead of answering as the others followed her, then saw what she was seeing. The five girls saw Nina banging against the glass in the aquarium as Bliscar showed up, followed by the boys, Lothian and Haru.

“What is going on?!” Michiru gasped.

“She was tired, so we thought we put her in some salt water. After all, she's a dolphin, isn't she?” Lisa asked as Pinkie facepalmed, finding it hard to believe that Lisa didn't know a crucial thing about dolphins.

“Girls, help us get her out before she drowns!” Mikey urged as Nina banged more before she started floating downwards.

“No, Nina! Nina!” Michiru called out as she Michiru tried to tackle the glass, but failed while Bliscar failed.

“That tears it...” Zeelo hissed as everyone banged on the glass but it was too thick. Michiru, Sonata and Zeelo roared as they started glowing and went into their beastman forms, with Michiru having a teal glow with sparkles around her, Sonata having a blue glow with ripples around her, and Zeelo having a green glow with electricity surging around him. Haru dropped the disguise, revealing her half form as the others went into their beastman forms as well. Bliscar opened the guitar case and unsheathed his katana while Michiru, Sonata and Zeelo's dominant arms became ginormous as they punched the glass with Bliscar slicing the glass, causing the aquarium to shatter and the water to spill, freeing Nina as Bliscar sheathed his katana and put it back into the guitar case before picking it up as Nina coughed while the beastmen approached her.

“Easy, Nina. We got ya.” Mikey assured while Nina went back to her human form as Bliscar and Michiru helped her up.

“Are you okay? Let's go home.” Michiru said as Nina nodded at that before everyone helped her out of the party. Lisa definitely felt bad for what happened as the blonde girl from earlier followed them.

Later, the group and girl were on the boat back to Anima City with Shirou, Luna, Baron and Marie.

“I had that nagging doubt that it would end in disaster and I was right.” Haru noted.

“Michiru, everyone, I'm sorry.” Nina apologized.

“No. It's my fault. If we hadn't gone to the human world, none of this would've ever happened. I should've stopped you.” Michiru responded.

“Hope this doesn't mean you'll hate humans.” Mikey said.

“If hatred means I'm like Shredder, I don't want to.” Nina replied.

“Nina... Why did you want to leave when you heard something about a lumber mill?” Sonata asked.

“I guess you and your friends don’t know. Anyway, it’s not like I hate humans now. That’s ‘cause, the human world really is sparkling, right?” Nina said as she showed a picture with Lisa on her phone with a smile.

Michiru was surprised, but smiled at that. “If you say so.”

"Wait, who're you?" Casey asked the girl.

"Nomi Mothra, I'm actually a beastman." The girl answered as she transformed into a butterfly beastman.

“What are we going to tell Flip?” Shirou asked.

“Something tells me he's going to be in for a shock.” Luna said.

“I thought… you and your friends wanted to go back to that side.” Shirou noted.

“That’s right. Someday, we’re gonna leave Anima City. Except… not right now. I wanna know more about ALL the beastmen. I think it’s my duty to know. So for now, I wanna stay in that city.” Michiru explained.

“Heh, we’re with you, Michiru.” Sonata smiled.

“Anyway, Pinkie, Mikey, Casey, Sonata. I have a surprise for you four." Luna said.

*An hour later...*

“Wow! The Factory looks great, guys!” Mikey awed in amazement as the factory was completely cleaned and turned into a livable space. Everything from kitchen, entertainment area, sleeping quarters, lab, even a play area for Gemma.

“Where have you guys been?” Leo asked.

“Long story. Well, Vice-Principal Luna, you said you wanted to wait until we're here with the others to show us the surprise.” Pinkie remember, but before Luna could tell her surprise, someone knocked at the door.

“I'll get it.” Sonata assured as she opened the door and Nina was there with a couple of suitcases and an upset face. “Nina?”

“Sonata, can I stay with you and your friends for a while?” Nina requested.

“Uh, of course.” Sonata answered.

"What happened?” Pinkie asked as Nina was escorted in.

“Well...” Nina started off.

*An hour earlier...*

"I'm leaving until you get your attitude together and you're not changing my mind, Daddy! My new friends told me how poisonous hatred is. If I don't hate humans, how long until I'm at the end of your gun?!” Nina snapped while packing her bags.

“N-Nina, what're you talking about? I wouldn't...” Flip tried to explain.

“No, I'm not buying it. Until you learn to stop hating humans, I'm staying with my friends. And if you so much as have your thugs even hurt them, I'll testify against you in court!” Nina shouted before she left, slamming the door shut as every word hit Flip hard.

Flip only sighed as he walked to his chair and sat down while pinching the bridge of his nose. “Just like her mother and grandfather.”

“And that's what happened.” Nina finished.

“Nina, I'm sorry." Mikey apologized.

“It’s okay. Besides, Bliscar and Lothian are staying here too, because they want to.” Nina assured.

“Stay as long as you need, but don't give up on your dad.” Leo said.

“I know...” Nina sighed.

“So, what's the surprise vice-principal Luna?” Pinkie asked.

"Well...” Luna started with a smile.

"It’s been quite a while.” A voice giggled.

“Huh?” The group asked in confusion before Celestia showed up, in her alicorn beastman form no less.

“Principal Celestia?!” The Rainbooms and Turtles gasped, with her friends from outside of Anima City surprised as well.

“Yes, but I can’t be here long.” Celestia said.

“Why?” Leo asked.

“Otherwise, those back in Canterlot will get suspicious.” Celestia answered.

“I guess everyone is in a panic trying to find us.” Raph noted.

“Yes, and call me crazy, but I have a feeling that some are on their way here." Celestia wondered.

Meanwhile, in a private jet, a familiar chairman was looking over pictures of Michiru, Shirou, Luna, the Rainbooms, turtles, Dazzlings and their friends. “Transformation beyond morphing, mutants gaining the ability to switch between human and beast, mythical beastmen returning and invulnerable bodies. This group are certainly not what anyone would refer to as, average beastmen.”

Back at the Beastman Co-op, Michiru looked at the ceiling before looking at Facebook on her phone again when she gasped with widened eyes, seeing a picture of a birthday cake from her mom with a sign saying “Happy Birthday Michiru”, there was even a message saying “Happy Birthday, Michiru. From Mom.” Michiru was about to press the star before she gave a small giggle as she kept looking, but then her phone rang. “Hello?”

“Michiru?! You there!?” A voice asked on the phone.

“Hey, cousin.” Michiru greeted.

“Oh, there you are! Where were you!? What happened over the last year?!” The female voice gasped.

“Indy, calm down. I'm going to switch my phone to video chat and show you something nuts. You got to promise me you wouldn't be mad.” Michiru requested.

“Mad? At the best basketball player in Japan? No way!” Indigo Zap scoffed, making Michiru giggle.

“Why are you still calling me that? You know I’m not the best.” Michiru pointed out.

“Yeah, but you managed to beat me!” Indigo responded before Michiru switched her phone to video, then morphed in front of Indigo Zap.

"Ta-da.” Michiru weakly fanfared.

“...I am trying my hardest not to blow a gasket right now, so be straight with me. HOW did this happen?” Indigo asked.

"...I don't know.” Michiru whimpered, starting to cry.

"Suddenly being a Beastman’s been torture, huh?” Indigo sighed.

“It's what I'm seeing from their perspective that I can't take... The Treatment from Humans.” Michiru answered.

“O-Okay. Here's the plan. I'm going straight to the airport. Find me a bus route that gets me close to the city. I'm on my way!” Indigo declared as she hung up before Michiru could protest, but little did Michiru or the others know, a recently turned nekomata Beastman was on her way to Anima City with two other recently turned tanuki Beastmen.

Happy Birthday Michiru!

Some time after Nina had moved in with the Gang, Danyelle had let slip that it was Michiru’s birthday thus Pinkie had freaked out and ran off like a speeding train to get the party supplies.

“Stars above, I’m such an idiot.” Danyelle facepalmed.

“You may be an idiot Dany, but you’re my idiot.” James chuckled before the two adult beastmen tussled while Selene was playing with Gemma.

Michiru was thinking about her parents as Mikey noticed that. “You okay Michiru?”

“I miss my parents.” Michiru sighed.

“That reminds me! My sister should be arriving soon!” Danyelle remember before a knock was heard on the front door right after she said that. “That must be Kilala now.”

Twilight goes to open the door before finding not just a two-tailed beastwoman known as Kilala but a pair of older tanuki Beastmen, one male and one female.

"Que?” Zeelo noticed.

“There’s three Beastmen here! Two tanuki and a cat!” Twilight counted.

“I’m a demonic cat beastman, nekomata to be precise.” Kilala pointed out.

“What? But demonic beastmen are extinct.” James said in confusion.

"I just turned, so I was just as shocked when I became a nekomata beastman of all things even though my idiot of a sister didn’t know." Kilala quipped.

"Hey!” Danyelle pouted.

"No offense to the unicorn of the group but hay’s for horse beastmen." Kilala giggled.

“Eh, none taken. Different than usual, but none taken.” Sunset shrugged.

"I heard that it was someone’s birthday today so I brought in a very special gift, one that will guarantee that the birthday girl will cry about." Kilala said before Pinkie popped up in front of the nekomata.

"Like what?” Pinkie asked before Kilala yowled as she jumped right onto the ceiling with fur standing on end with her hissing.

"Now who’s the scaredy cat, eh sis?" Danyelle giggled.

"Oh go cough up a hairball Danyelle!" Kilala growled.

“Don’t mind Pinkster, she’s totally random.” Mikey smiled as Kilala cleared her throat.

"Like I was saying before I was rudely interrupted, I brought a special gift with me. And where is the birthday girl anyway? I want to talk to her.” Kilala said.

"And why are you asking that?” Raph skeptically asked.

“You wouldn't deny a reunion between a girl and her parents would you?” The female tanuki beastman pointed out.

“I'm sorry, WHAT?!” Raph gasped.

“My husband and I turned a while but given the racism that beastmen face from the humans, we couldn’t stay where we were so we packed what we could and hightailed it out of our old home. Oh, I’m Irene Kagemori.” Mrs. Kagemori introduced herself as the mention of her last name had caused Michiru’s ears to perk up.

“QUE?!” Zeelo shouted as Kilala’s ears flattened.

“Watch the tone of voice will you? Demonic cat and demonic dog Beastmen have sensitive ears!” Kilala pointed out,

“Hey, don’t forget about me, Satoshi Kagemori.” Mr. Kagemori added as Michiru froze at that as well.

“What is going on here?” Sonata asked.

“Family reunion.” Danyelle answered as Michiru slowly turned around before her expression became that of pure shock.

“Happy birthday sweetheart.” Irene smiled as Michiru was silent at that.

“What? No "Hi" to your parents?” Satoshi chuckled.

Michiru felt tears threatening to burst from her eyes, but she didn’t care as she ran towards that while sobbing before she hugged them both with her gigantified arms. “MOM! DAD!”

“Forgetting someone else Michi?” A male voice chuckled as a male dark tabby cat beastman showed up.

“H-Huh?” Michiru asked while no one noticed Zeelo silently snarling with a bit of electricity crackling in his right fist after hearing what the cat said before Danyelle wingslapped Zeelo.

“Don't you remember the nickname you gave me?” The cat noted.

“Brambles? But I thought...” Michiru gasped.

“Hey, we're still friends, and friends looked out for each other.” Brambles said.

Michiru hugged the cat beastman with a smile before she looked at him with an apologetic expression. “Listen, Jacob... About what happened, I'm sorry that...”

“It’s okay, Michi. We're on good terms.” Jacob assured as he and Michiru hugged, with the tanuki glad that the cat isn't mad at her. “I never stopped thinking about you Michi. I still love you.”

Zeelo felt like he was about to completely lose it with electricity surging all over him but gave a sad sigh with the electricity dying down as he felt deep inside that getting angry wasn't gonna be worth it.

“Hey Michiru, didn’t you have a sister?” Danyelle asked.

“Oh yeah, Minako. Mom, dad, is Minako here?” Michiru added.

“Um… Thing is after you left, Minako went after you, but she hasn’t called yet since she said she would once she found you.” Irene nervously said.

“I think she’s gone missing.” Danyelle guessed.

“Knowing her, she’s not exactly the best with directions.” Michiru sighed before a loud boom was heard followed by a yowling cat before a blue haired hedgehog Beastman crashed into the side of the factory when it was suddenly gone.

“Huh, was that a running gag?” Pinkie joked as Mikey did a rimshot.

“Sounded like someone crashed into the side of the building while carrying Minako on their back.” Danyelle noted.

“Somehow, I’m feeling... the need for speed.” Rainbow Dash simply said.

“Is she always like that?” Jacob asked before Michiru was tackle-hugged by a cat beastwoman.

“Sis! I was so worried about you!” The cat beastwoman said.

“You okay, Michi?” Jacob chuckled.

“Minako and I used to tussle and compete all the time.” Michiru giggled.

“And what about Nazuna, huh?” Jacob asked.

“Um... I haven’t seen her since she became a beastman.” Michiru hesitantly answered.

“I’ve been hearing rumors of a cult that's managed by a creepy guy... And Nazuna’s part of it.” Danyelle wondered.

“Huh?” Michiru asked.

“It's just a rumor I heard. Oh, hello there Luna and Shirou.” Danyelle noticed.

"More headaches.” Shirou sighed in annoyance.

“That wasn’t a nice thing to say about my parents, my sister and my boyfriend though Shirou.” Michiru pointed out.

“Do you seriously expect me to see more humans becoming beastmen as good news?” Shirou scoffed before he was soon pinned against the wall by Kilala.

“Immortal or not, you shouldn’t underestimate a demonic beastman.” Kilala hissed before Shirou headbutt her, making the nekomata back off while letting him go.

“Are you sure it isn't the other way around?” Shirou quipped.

"Point taken.” Kilala winced before Danyelle pulls her sister's ear.

“Cool it sis, you shouldn’t anger Shirou when Luna is around or she'll go Nightmare Moon on your sorry tails.” Danyelle pointed out

"Fine.” Kilala groaned.

Minako noticed Zeelo, who was sitting away from the party. “Hey sis, I’m gonna check if he’s okay.”

“You go do that, I’m gonna catch up with Jacob.” Michiru said as Danyelle whispered into Luna’s ear about a little plan on setting Minako and Zeelo up on a date.

“Cool.” Minako smiled.

"Are you after my niece’s job?” Luna teased with a giggle

“By the Silver Wolf’s light, no. She isn’t here at the moment.” Danyelle giggled back before Michiru and Jacob headed off to the Beastman Co-op as Twilight spotted something glowing blue in the rubble of where a hole in the wall was made.

“Hey Twi, what is that you have there?” Leo asked as Twilight grabbed what seemed to be a blue hedgehog quill, but some kind of energy crackled around it.

“Omoshiroi.” Twilight noted in Japanese.

“It seems even more alien than those Kraang I heard rumors about...” Danyelle noted.

“Ooh! Let me see!” Mikey awed as he was about to lick the quill before it shocked him a bit.

"Turtle get zapped!" Selene giggled.

“And that’s the basic gist of it Melissa. My parents and sister need a place to stay.” Michiru explained.

“Well, since they’re your family, they’re more than welcome to stay here.” Melissa noted.

“Wherever Michiru is staying, I’m staying with her.” Jacob chuckled.

"Wow Jacob, you’re a total flirt!” Michiru blushed with a giggle.

“Only for you Michiru.” Jacob smiled as Melissa noticed that and giggled.

“If I didn’t know any better, I’d think you’re dating.” Melissa added.

“Michiru and I have been childhood sweethearts. Despite the fact my dad hates Michiru’s dad.” Jacob chuckled when Michiru had a feeling that Jacob had a special gift for her as she smirked. “You sure you want your gift Michi?”

“Wait until we get to our room, tiger. You won’t believe what I'm capable of.” Michiru giggled with half-lidded eyes.

“I’m all yours tonight Michi.” Jacob accepted as the young couple went off.

Later that day back in the factory, Minako caught up with a sad Zeelo. “You okay dude?” Minako asked as Zeelo only sighed sadly before she slapped the electric eel on the back of the head. “Snap out of it will you? There are plenty of other females out there.”

Unfortunately, after Minako did that slap, Zeelo accidentally shocked Minako, making her fur and hair all frizzled and standing on end.

“Talk about shocking!” Danyelle snickered as she was fortunate that neither Minako or Zeelo heard her while she was perching on a spire from a distance.

“Um... Sorry about that.” Zeelo apologized.

“Can’t be no worse than the pranks my cousin used to pull on me.” Minako noted.

“Huh?” Zeelo asked in confusion.

“Yeah, her name’s Indigo Zap.” Minako nodded before Sunset ran past her, causing the cat beastwoman to trip and fall onto Zeelo, thus kissing him on the lips by accident. Minako and Zeelo backed away in shock while blushing.

“I-I'm so sorry!” Minako stammered in embarrassment as Danyelle was laughing her feathers off.

“Was that Sunset?” Zeelo noticed.

“Looks like it, but she seemed steamed.” Minako added.

“Ya know Zeelo, it’s also Minako’s birthday too.” Danyelle informed while nesting in her loft.

“Que?” Zeelo asked.

Y-Yeah, you missed the party.” Minako confirmed.

“And that was her first kiss though!” Danyelle laughed as that made Minako and Zeelo blush more.

“B-But it was accidental.” Zeelo pointed out.

“Um... The weird thing is... I... I actually liked it.” Minako shyly admitted.

“You know what most folks say, the first kiss is the most special. And if only Shirou would kiss Luna on the lips...” Danyelle wondered with a snicker before Luna appeared behind her.

“Don’t worry, I can handle that when I want to.” Luna giggled.

“Whoa! Still sneaky as ever.” Danyelle noted before she winced in pain since she was close to laying an egg.

"Need any help?” Luna noticed.

“I’ve handled it on my own once before, I’ll be fine.” Danyelle assured.

“Very well.” Luna said as she flew off.

"Um... Do you think we can... do it again?” Minako bashfully asked as that caught Zeelo off guard with a blush while Danyelle pushed out an egg before grabbing a towel to dry the shell off.

“I... I suppose so.” Zeelo answered before he and Minako kissed each other on the lips again as they embraced each other. There was even a small spark from Zeelo that made Minako flash her eyes open with her tail straightened out as she sighed giddily while disconnecting, making Zeelo chuckle.

"That hurt... But then again, this isn’t my first egg.” Danyelle noted as she gently embraced her egg to help it stay warm.

“Give that book back Sonata!” Sunset growled.

“Not a chance Bacon Hair!” Sonata laughed as the chase continued.

Later, back at the Beastman Co-op, it was midnight as Michiru and Jacob were in bed under covers with smiles.

"Thank you, Brambles, that was the best gift ever." Michiru said in happiness.

"You're welcome, now you belong to me and only me, Michi." Jacob responded, equally happy.

"Yeah, you're now mine and mine alone. I love you so much, Jacob." Michiru sighed, placing a hand on Jacob's cheek, with the cat placing a hand on her cheek back.

"And I love you just as much, Michiru." Jacob sighed back before the couple kissed each other on the lips while embracing each other as they moaned softly during the gentle make-out. They soon fell asleep in each other's arms with Michiru resting her head against her lover's chest, giving a small giggle as both of them smiled.

Luna escorted the group into an abandoned factory. "Well, here we are. I know it’s not much, but it’ll do."

"We've made do before." Leo said.

"At least we get a bus to work on." Rainbow Dash added as she pointed to a busted School Bus close by.

"Now this is good!" Donnie smiled.

"Jem and Melissa are next door and will check up on you all. I don't want to hear that you all have been giving them a hard time. Understand?" Luna asked as everyone agreed to her order.

"So, how are we going to make this work?" Michiru pointed out.

"No different than our set-up in the sewers." Slash responded.

"Wait, the sewers?!" Michiru gasped.

"We can't exactly buy a house." Raph said as Michiru started to feel sick, before covering her mouth as her head comically turned green.

"Alright, first thing in morning we get to work. For now, everyone get some sleep." Leo requested.

"Don’t worry Michiru, you’ll get used to it." Rarity assured.

"Ya know, Ah wonder what kind of beastmen Jem and Melissa are." Applejack said.

"Doesn't matter. I got to get up early tomorrow." Pinkie responded as she carried a sleeping Gemma in her arms.

"Well, I gotta git up early tomorrow too." Applejack added.

Later that night as everyone slept, Shirou sniffed the ID, seeing the past of Michiru, the Rainbooms and some of their friends, while the scents of Sunset and the Dazzlings showed him of their past in Equestria.

"Interesting kids you got there, Lulu." Shirou said while not turning around.

"So you saw their pasts through their scent?" Luna asked.

"I did. This isn't good." Shirou answered.

"I don’t know how that happened for Michiru. But I can certainly tell that Equestrian Magic is involved with the others’ transformations." Luna informed.

"Oh? Is something going on?" A male voice noted as the two turned around, seeing a stripeless orange tabby cat beastman with a cream muzzle in a white suit and top hat while holding a cane.

"Baron." Shirou said.

"What? No 'Hello, old friend?'" Baron asked.

"A lot is happening right now." Luna answered.

"Ah, I see." Baron noted.

Next morning, everyone woke up to the sound of a rooster crowing as Applejack sighed with a smile on her face. "Just like on the farm."

Everyone found Pinkie already gone with Gemma, before finding a Rooster Beastman atop their building. "Morning, kids." Jem greeted.

"Morning, Mr. Jem." Leo greeted back.

"Sorry if you all had a rough night." Jem apologized.

"It’s fine. We had worse." Slash responded.

"I can direct you to some stores for food, supplies, and parts." Jem offered.

"Thank you. We're going to be busy for a while." Leo said as Michiru noticed a building.

"Hey, what’s that?" Michiru asked as everyone looked at a large building in the distance.

"That's the medical center." Jem answered.

"Medical center?" Leo repeated.

"Slyvasta Medical Center." Jem clarified.

"Isn't that a major pharmaceutical company?" Donnie asked.

"Indeed. One of the best." Jem confirmed.

"Really? Maybe… they could cure my disease." Michiru noted.

"Maybe they could find out why the Dazzlings and I turned out like this." Sunset added.

"If nothing else, it'll be a good idea to be healed." Leo said.

"So what's the plan, fearless leader?" Raph asked.

"Shirou?" Mikey, Sonata and Mondo noticed.

"Huh?" Michiru and the other ninjas said in confusion before she and all the ninjas suddenly found themselves dragged by Shirou into a room, before he closed the door and locked it.

"Hey! Let us out!" Michiru growled.

"Quiet. *Slides IDs under the door* I now believe a majority of you are humans." Shirou said.

"Then why won’t you let us out?!" Adagio asked.

"The fact that you all exist is dangerous." Shirou answered.

"And what is that supposed to mean?!" Aria questioned.

"If the humans find out they could turn into Beastmen, they'd panic." Shirou explained.

"Um… He does have a point." Fluttershy admitted.

"Don’t go anywhere. I’ll bring you some food." Shirou informed as Applejack and Raph started tackling the door.

"Don't panic. Pinkie is still out. She can free us." Mikey noted.

"Why did she leave early, anyway?" Rarity asked.

"Wasn’t there something about an adoption form?" Pigeon Pete remembered.

Meanwhile, at city hall...

"Just sign these forms, Ms. Pie." A clerk said.

"Big sis, I still can't read or write." Gemma told Pinkie.

"The others and I can help you learn though." Pinkie responded with a smile.

Back with the others...

"Plan B. Slash, battering ram!" Donnie declared as Slash nodded in understanding before he tucked his head inside his shell and prepared himself.

"Usagi, Aria, Applejack, Raph... Bust us out." Leo ordered as the aforementioned four picked up Slash's shell and charged forward repeatedly.

"You're going to give your friend a concussion." Shirou pointed out.

"Not if Slash’s head was tucked in before this!" Leatherhead retorted before Michiru heard something as they kept banging.

"Guys, stop." Michiru said as everyone in the room did that.

"Mayor Rose." Shirou greeted as everyone listened in.

"Luna told me about the Special Visitors yesterday." Mayor Rose informed.

"Lulu has a bigger mouth than her sister." Shirou said.

"And that one of the visitors have adopted a child as a younger sister." Mayor Rose added as Shirou flinched inside.

"Crap, I completely forgot about her. Now she's free in the city." Shirou mentally cursed himself.

"Anyhow, I need your help about finding a bomb." Mayor Rose said, getting straight to the point.

"Bomb?" The group in the closet repeated to themselves in confusion.

"Shiry, have you seen my students and their friends?" Luna asked.

"No. And what’s this about a bomb, mayor?" Shirou responded.

"The director notified the police that the Sylvasta Medical Center received a bomb threat. Then today at dawn, someone bombed one of Sylvasta’s trucks that were transporting medicine." Mayor Rose explained.

"A bomb?!" Michiru gasped before her, Sunset and the Dazzlings’ ears turned into rabbit ears.

"What?" Sunset noticed.

"Now our ears?" Sonata asked in confusion.

"Shhh." Adagio shushed.

"Still, that sucks." Michiru pouted.

"‘If you have the money to build a hospital for beastmen filled with cutting-edge equipment, that money should go to the humans instead.’ That’s what these criminals are saying." Mayor Rose informed.

"I take it that it’s the Anti-Beastmen again?" Shirou guessed.

"Unknown." Luna responded.

"The explosion caused the smells to be mixed up. They weren’t able to track it unfortunately. I believe that with your sharp sense of smell, your and Luna would be able to do a much better job than the police." Mayor Rose said.

"Wolves do have excellent sense of smell since they're in the canine family." Pinkie agreed as she showed up with Gemma.

"When did you and the girl get back here?" Shirou asked.

"Just now." Pinkie answered.

"Just go with it. It'll save you the Advil." Luna advised.

"This little one must be your newly adopted sister." Mayor Rose noted.

"Yes indeedy! This is Gemma." Pinkie smiled as Gemma showed Mayor Rose her chicken beastman form.

"Well, apologies for the traumatic experience yesterday, little one." Mayor Rose apologized.

"Anyone seen my friends? They weren't at the factory." Pinkie asked.

"No. Besides, a few patients are hospitalized at that medical center. We have to do this quickly." Shirou responded as Michiru gasped at that.

"Hold on! If the hospital gets bombed, there’s not gonna be anyone to treat my disease! Oh no! This is really bad!" Michiru dreaded.

"Alright, one more time!" Raph said.

"I don’t know, amigo." Zeelo noted.

"Wait! Maybe something else! *Inhale!* Please help us! Ms. Mayor! Ms. Luna! Pinkie! Gemma!" Michiru called out.

"Did you hear something?" Mayor Rose noticed.

"No." Shirou answered as Michiru, Zeelo, Sunset and the Dazzlings took in really deep breaths, comically puffing up their fronts like balloons, before their mouths turned into beaks of roosters.

"GUYS! GET US OUTTA HERE!!! WE’RE ALL BEING LOCKED UP AGAINST OUR WILL!" Michiru, Zeelo, Sunset and the Dazzlings crowed as the loud voices shook the entire building before a shelf fell from the blockade.

"That was Kuro. He just learned how to mimic voices." Shirou lied as Kuro landed on his shoulder and cawed.

"Move all that." Mayor Rose requested, pointing at the blockade. "Right now, Ogami."

A minute later, the blockade was removed and the door was opened, with its inhabitants out of the room.

"Everyone okay?" Pinkie asked as everyone else said that they were fine, although Michiru was glaring at Shirou, who was unfazed by that.

"Really, Shirou? This was your big plan?" Luna deadpanned.

"It was to protect the beastmen." Shirou responded.

"Didn't help you forgot one of us." Leo pointed out.

"So these are the famous Ninjas, Luna?" Mayor Rose asked.

"Yes. And some of them are the mutants you’ve heard of." Luna answered.

"A little on the young side, don't you think?" Mayor Rose noticed.

"Hey, they saved the world a couple of times." Luna pointed out.

"Quite the accomplishment for children." Mayor Rose smiled.

"Besides, Leo and some of the other mutants know what it’s like to be in hiding." Luna added.

"She's right, Mayor Rose. But today we have a busy day." Leo agreed.

"You’re planning to help with finding the bombs?" Mayor Rose asked.

"We can spare a small group. But we need to map the city, clean the factory for us to live in, and buy supplies for an extended stay." Leo explained.

"A third of the group could come with me and Zeel." Michiru suggested.

"Que?" Zeelo asked in confusion.

"I-I mean you can come with if you want, Zeelo." Michiru stammered with a blush.

"Raph, Usagi, Twilight, and Leatherhead... You four help with the bombs." Leo ordered.

"I think I’ll come along, just in case." Zeelo volunteered.

"Donnie, get to work on the bus in the factory. I want us to have a new vehicle ready." Leo said.

"You got it, Leo!" Donnie responded.

"Mikey, take a group with you and get supplies. Wait, we don't have any money." Leo realized.

"Bill it to my office. I'll cover the cost." Mayor Rose offered.

"Uh… You sure about that?" Mikey asked in confusion.

"Consider it my gift for dealing with Gran Grandma." Mayor Rose responded.

"Pinkie, why don't you and Rarity get Gemma some stuff to get comfortable with us." Leo suggested.

"Okie dokie lokie!" Pinkie smiled.

"Slash, take a small group and scout the city. I don't like the idea of us wondering around without any idea where we're going." Leo ordered.

"Understood." Slash responded before everyone left to get to work.

"He's pretty good at leadership." Michiru noticed.

"Hey, he was picked leader by Master Splinter. Whaddya expect?" Raph responded.

"Let's get moving." Shirou said.

"Hey Mayor Rose, you look familiar." Sci-Twi noticed.

"I was actually in a science magazine article." Mayor Rose said, making Twilight gasp.

"Now I recognize you. You think you can still help?" Sci-Twi asked.

"Yes." Mayor Rose answered.

"Twilight, you coming?" Raph called out as Sci-Twi ran to catch up.

"Sorry, it’s just I got to meet one of my idols! And she’s the mayor of Anima City!" Sci-Twi cheered with an excited squeal.

"Huh?" Raph's group asked in confusion.

"You don’t know Professor Barbara Rose?!" Sci-Twi gasped in shock.

"Hate to interrupt, but we have work to do." Shirou pointed out.

Meanwhile, Shirou, Luna, Michiru and her group were on the roof of the factory.

"That hospital is part of the Sylvasta conglomerate, which belongs to the Sylvasta family, one of the richest families in the world." Shirou noted.

"I've seen shoguns with more humility than that." Usagi scoffed.

"Somehow, I’m not doubting that. They support our mayor’s vision of achieving equal rights for beastman and humans. They’ve also supported Anima City with large amounts of funding. Some humans are unhappy about it though." Shirou informed.

"Racism much?" Raph deadpanned.

"Now you understand why my sister and I kept a low profile." Luna said.

"However, rumors say that Sylvasta Pharmaceutical is profiting off their data on beastmen. As a result, not all beastmen has a positive view on them." Shirou added.

"Smart." Leatherhead noted.

"But if that’s true, why did you accept this job?" Michiru asked.

"He can never say 'No' to me." Luna answered.

"While that is true, I can’t say no to the mayor either." Shirou pointed out as Luna fumed, thinking something else.

"So, how does this work?" Raph asked as Shirou didn’t answer before he sniffed the piece and found the other bombs from its scent, before calling Yuji.

"This is Ogami. I found the locations of the bombs. There are six of them in total. Send the bomb squad." Shirou informed as he ended the call before turning to Michiru and her group. "The rest of you go to the hospital."

"You're the boss." Raph scoffed.

"Are there bombs at the hospital?" Michiru asked.

"No. I didn’t smell any there, but go just in case. We believe that Sylvasta are what the criminals are really after." Shirou said as Michiru and the others rushed away. "Not going with them, Lulu?"

"You're an Atomic Bomb when you're left alone." Luna pointed out.

"Using what I said about you and your sister against me?" Shirou noticed.

"You're just as bad as us." Luna responded as Shirou just scoffed. "Maybe you would make a good father." Luna teased as Shirou’s left eye twitched while he held himself together. "Come on. Tell me you never thought about it." Luna smirked as Shirou tried to stay strong, but found his mind weakening. "You, me, a child here in the city. Me, still teaching. You on the PTA board. Come on, admit it." Luna said, but before Shirou could lose himself, he jumped onto the streets. "Celestia is going to love this."

"That was close. I hate when she gets into my head like that." Shirou panted as little did he know, Luna counted on him jumping onto the streets.

Meanwhile, Michiru and company arrived at the Medical Center.

“Now what?” Zeelo asked.

“Huh?” Michiru noticed as she and her group saw Kuro on a truck that was entering the facility. "Kuro? Wait!" Michiru quietly yelped as she and her group ran on the truck’s right, avoiding the security guard.

"All this sneaking around isn't my style." Usagi admitted.

"You’ll get used to it." Raph said.

"Quiet." Michiru shushed.

Soon, after getting in…

"Try to go faster!" A voice urged.

"Don’t be in such a rush. The police should have their hands tied up with all the bombs right now." Kusakabe sighed as Kuro saw a man in a lab coat.

"Anyway, this is the last one, you hear me?" The man growled.

"Hey, relax. You benefited quite a bit from this too, ya know." Kusakabe pointed out as Michiru and her group arrived before hiding behind the truck.

"Twilight, you're the brains here. Who are they?" Raph asked.

"Not sure." Twilight responded.

"Beneficiado?" Zeelo noted.

"What are they talking about?" Michiru wondered as her ears turned into Rabbit Ears while Zeelo grew rabbit ears. But then Kusakabe picked up their scent.

"Huh? *Seeing rabbit ears* Hey! I know you’re eavesdropping over there!" Kusakabe called out.

"Leatherhead, give them a scare." Raph ordered, with Leatherhead giving a nod as he revealed himself before roaring, scaring only the scientist however.

"Leatherhead, we're leaving. Come on!" Usagi said.

"Right!" Leatherhead nodded.

"Go get ‘em!" Kusakabe ordered as Twilight phoned Leo.

"Leo, there's something suspicious about the Medical Center. Ask the Mayor for public records on it." Twilight informed.

"On it!" Leo responded on the phone before Michiru and company got cornered in an alley.

"I won't need my sword for this." Usagi said while cracking his knuckles.

"Right behind you, buddy. Twilight, hang back and cover Michiru." Raph smirked.

"On it!" Twilight nodded.

"You kids think you can take us down?" Kusakabe chuckled.

"Just try it, hyena!" Raph dared before Kusakabe and his thugs attacked. "Doggie want to play fetch?!"

"Girls, get out of here! We'll catch up!" Usagi urged while wrestling a thug.

"But I can’t just-" Michiru tried to say.

"We’ll be alright, Michiru!" Zeelo assured as Michiru and Twilight bolted away. The fight continued until Kusakabe and his men look and saw the silhouette of Luna's demon form.

"It's the Wrath!" Kusakabe yelped.

"Huh?" Zeelo, Usagi, Raph and Leatherhead replied in confusion as Kusakabe and his men ran away.

"I love it when they run." Luna giggled.

"Luna?" Raph noticed.

"You boys okay?" Luna checked.

"Si, amiga. But what happened there?" Zeelo asked.

"My sister and I have frightening forms." Luna answered.

"So what? You and Celestia have another beastman form?" Raph questioned.

"Let's just say our bad side is more than us giving kids detention." Luna explained as Zeelo sensed something ferocious in Luna and decided not to question it.

"All the same, thank you for the assistance." Usagi said in gratitude.

"No problem." Luna responded as Shirou showed up.

"Who were they?" Leatherhead asked.

"The Hyena I know. That was Kusakabe, right hand to a Gangster Leader. But why were they after you guys, Twilight and Michiru?" Luna noticed.

"They were doing something suspicious at the Medical Center." Raph informed.

"It looks like they’re working with some of the staff and embezzling the hospital’s assets." Luna noted before an explosion went off in the hospital.

"That came from the Medical Center!" Michiru gasped.

"What the shell?!" Raph growled as the group ran to investigate.

"Wait at the factory and Beastman Co-Op." Shirou said.

"I don’t want to! If they destroy the place, I’m in trouble!" Michiru pointed out.

"Besides, you'll have more support with all of us." Raph added.

"It’s dangerous!" Shirou responded.

"Good. I could use a work out." Usagi smirked.

"Then I’ll admit it!" Michiru declared.

"Huh?" The others asked in confusion.

"I know that I was born a human, but I’ll admit right now, I’m a beastman." Michiru explained.

"Why do you say that?" Shirou questioned.

"Well you did say that you’d protect beastmen, didn’t you? Then you’re gonna have to protect me and my friends." Michiru pointed out as everyone else smiled smugly.

"Heh. You’re such a pain." Shirou softly chuckled.

"Sticks and stones." Raph scoffed as the group arrives to find the damage.

“This is awful…” Michiru dreaded.

“All this equipment destroyed.” Sci-Twi added as Baron showed up with a cloaked and hooded woman, a snowy owl/snow leopard griffon beastman and a striped hyena beastwoman.

“Hmm? Ogami and Luna, you made it. And Baron, quite a surprise to see you here, and with some new friends. This is Mr. Yaba, the director of the medical center.” Yuji introduced as the group saw a rhino beastman in human form.

“Was anyone hurt, Mr. Yaba?” The cloaked figure asked.

“No, but this was clearly the work of the bomber as well. The policemen didn’t stop this, so the precautions will be harsh!” Yaba growled.

“Allow Shirou and I to investigate too.” Luna said.

“And these kids?” Yaba added, pointing towards Michiru and her group.

“Security.” Sci-Twi answered.

“Recruiting a little young?” Yaba skeptically asked.

“Remember New York?” Raph pointed out.

“Tabloid rumors, nothing more.” Yaba dismissed.

“Oh yeah? Well, Leatherhead and I are proof that happened, since the two of us are mutants.” Raph said.

“Let it go, Raphael. People are entitled to their opinions.” Usagi responded.

“Tch!” Raph scoffed.

“I'll leave you to investigate.” Yaba said as he left the group before Shirou and Luna began investigating immediately.

"So, who're you guys?" Michiru asked the three new figures.

"My name is Haru Yoshioka, the snow griffon is Glacier Owleto, and the striped hyena is Zeta Tigeroon." The cloaked figure introduced herself.

"And don't worry about Haru, I'm looking after her." Baron assured.

“Even you missed this one, Ogami.” Yuji noted.

“I traced all of the bombs, but this one didn’t appear. How’s that possible?” Shirou wondered as he used his nose to smell out the last of this room, before realizing something. “This is…”

“What?” Twilight asked.

“It has no smell.” Shirou realized.

“Is that possible?” Leatherhead said in confusion.

Meanwhile, in the director’s office, Yaba showed up. “Mimura! It’s that girl! She came back here with those friends of hers!”

“She’s back?” Mimura asked in shock.

“We have no choice.” Yaba said.

“Yes, I understand.” Mimura agreed before the phone rang.

“What?” Yaba noticed as he grabbed the phone and answered it. “Chai-Uh… Chairman?”

“I heard the medical center was bombed. The world is a scary place these days.” The chairman noted.

“Y-Yes. The bombing happened at the laboratory’s data management department. But the hospital data was being managed at a different facility, so it’s safe.” Yaba assured as the caller was revealed to be a man with blonde hair.

“I see. I’m very glad to hear that. Repair the scene of the accident immediately. I don’t care how much it costs. Just make sure you leave no trace of this horrible incident. And I mean none, Mr. Yaba." The chairman requested.

“Y-Yes, sir.” Yaba nodded as the call ended.

“Well, this is a problem.” The chairman admitted while back at the director's office, Yaba heard a voice.

“Director Yaba. Could I speak with you for a moment please?” That voice asked as Yaba looked up and saw Yuji, Shirou, Luna, Baron, Haru, Glacier, Zeta, Michiru and her group in the office.

“What do you want from me now?! I hope you know that I’m going to hold you responsible for this!” Yaba said.

"We conducted an investigation of the crime scene, but we couldn’t detect any traces of the criminal’s scent.” Yuji informed.

“Is that an excuse?” Yaba questioned.

“No it's a solid lead.” Sci-Twi answered.

“What?!” Yaba gasped.

“Not only the criminal, but there was a period of time during which no scents were found at the crime scene. It’s impossible for scents to completely disappear, unless you use a chemical that’s able to fully erase the scent.” Shirou informed.

“Mr. Yaba, this laboratory is capable of developing such a chemical, right?” Yuji questioned.

“This is outrageous! Are you actually holding yourself blameless, and suspecting me?!” Yaba growled as Raph and the others drew their weapons.

“We saw one of your staff members doing business with the Gang earlier today.” Michiru said.

“You’re involved as well, no?” Zeelo added.

“In order to eliminate all of the proof, you staged the whole thing and bombed the laboratory." Shirou informed.

“Seriously?! How can you even trust what a man like this says?!” Yaba questioned before Shirou, Luna and Baron glared, making him flinch with his hands on his desk.

“If you follow the scent left at the scene of the crime, it’ll always lead you to the culprit. It’s because every beastman has their own unique scent. However, there was a particular spot at the crime scene that had no smell at all. And you see, ever since this laboratory was bombed, your hands had no smell to them either.” Shirou explained as Yaba gasped before he sniffed both of his hands, smelling nothing, making him realize his critical mistake.

“Do the honorable thing and come quietly...” Usagi started off.

“Or we go about it the fun way.” Raph finished.

"And believe me, my friends and I can get pretty crazy in a fight." Zeta noted.

"So please make this easy on yourself and surrender." Glacier said added.

“In accordance with the regulations of the Beastmen Special Zone, the analysis of this scent is going to be used as proof.” Yuji declared while Yaba panted as his left eye twitched. “Mr. Yaba, why don’t you and I go have a long talk at the police station?”

Yaba felt like he had no other choice, and went into his beastman form, revealed to be an Indian Rhinoceros as he roared, stomping his desk and charged at Shirou and Luna, who grabbed his horn, stopping it.

“No! Shirou! Luna!” Michiru shouted before a chameleon tail suddenly revealed itself as it wrapped around Michiru’s neck.

“Don’t move!” A voice ordered as the culprit was Mimura in his beastman form, revealed to be a chameleon. “If you move even an inch, I’m gonna kill her!”

Shirou, Luna and Baron growled before finding themselves punched away by Yaba, sending them crashing into a wall.

“Get out of here, Mimura!” Yaba shouted, responded by Mimura giving a nod as he ran out of the room with Michiru as hostage.

"Shirou, catch!” Luna called out as she threw one of her weapons at Shirou, who caught it perfectly while Baron grabbed his cane at where the line and curve met before drawing out a cane sword. But then Yaba jumped out the window, shattering it as he landed in another area.

“Shirou! Luna! Baron! After him! The rest of you, with me!” Yuji said.

“Right." Shirou nodded.

“Understood!” Luna agreed.

"Be careful, Baron." Haru said.

"Do not worry, I will." Baron assured as he, Shirou and Luna went after Yaba.

“You think that oversized toothpick can pierce my thick skin?!” Yaba scoffed.

“Thick skin? I’ve punched mattresses thicker than that!” Luna quipped before Yaba grabbed her.

"I don't believe in the Silver Wolf or his Wrath. *Crushing* I don't know what mutation you have, but I'll enjoy dissecting your corpse to find out.” Yaba said when Luna suddenly smirked before she teleported out of Yaba’s grasp, as she reappeared, with her form changing.

“You abandoned your pride as a Beastman and threatened the love of my life. You don't get my claws, you'll only get my fists!” Shirou growled.

“Remember you saying you didn’t believe in the Silver Wolf or his Wrath? Well, you better believe them now! Because your worst nightmare has arrived!” A darker voice of Luna smirked as Yaba saw Luna's demon form but was unconvinced.

“I'm not like those superstitious imbeciles.” Yaba scoffed.

"Why not try to find out, you miscreant?" Baron taunted as Yaba charged at the three again, only for them to grab his horn once more.

“You attempted to cover up a crime in order to protect yourself!” Shirou started as he, Luna and Baron counterattacked, hitting Yaba, before they lifted him by the horn. “Let's see how sharp my darling's weapon is at cutting your horn off, since you no longer need it.”

“No! Please stop! Not my horn! Anything but my horn!” Yaba begged before Shirou, Luna and Baron slashed with their swords, cutting clean through his horn, before the rhino beastman fell unconscious.

“'Love of my life'. Your exact words.” Luna pointed out as she morphed back while Baron smirked.

Shirou blushed a bit before clearing his throat. “We should find the others.”

“My Darling?” Luna added, making Shirou start to blush more.

“Come on, Lulu. We need to find the others.” Shirou pointed out.

“Fine. But you're going to find your own weapon.” Luna responded.

"Like my cane sword." Baron added.

“Whatever.” Shirou scoffed as the three started heading out.

*Meanwhile, on the rooftop of the medical center…*

“Let her go right now!” Yuji ordered.

“Don’t move! If you get any closer, I’m going to throw her over!” Mimura threatened.

“Don’t even think about it, you slimeball!” Zeelo hissed.

“Starting to wish the others were here, Raphael?” Usagi asked.

"Honestly, yeah.” Raphael admitted.

"I'm not afraid to use my claws if necessary." Haru said.

"This won't end well if you don't turn yourself in." Glacier warned.

"You must be crazy if you think we'll do nothing." Zeta added.

“I hope you know that you’re never gonna get away with this!” Michiru growled.

“This is all your doing! If it weren’t for you and your friends snooping around, none of this would have ever happened!” Mimura hissed.

“Huh?” Michiru said in confusion.

“Look, if you wanna save her, then give me a hundred million yen and a helicopter to escape!” Mimura ordered as Raph and the others were ready to attack.

“That’s impossible!” Yuji responded as Kuro flew up into the air and tried to attack Mimura, only for his eyes to look behind and counterattacked, knocking Kuro out onto the roof.

“Kuro!” Michiru gasped.

“Don’t underestimate the peripheral vision of a chameleon! Try anything weird and you die! Give me my money and my helicopter!” Mimura repeated.

“You'll pay for that, Dishonorable Coward!” Usagi growled.

“No way! He’s serious?! If only I could make my arms stretch like before!” Michiru thought to herself as her arms started to stretch, much to Mimura’s shock before Michiru attack him with both hands, making Mimura let go, unfortunately off the building.

“No!” Zeelo yelled as he ran and jumped off the roof, grabbing Michiru.

“TWILIGHT, GRAB THEM!” Raph shouted.

“There’s no time!” Sci-Twi responded before Shirou ran up and grabbed both Michiru and Zeelo, shielding them as they crashed.

“SHIROU!” Raph's group gasped as Michiru and Zeelo got up.

“Shirou! Shirou!” Michiru and Zeelo called out.

“I’m alive.” Shirou simply said as Mimura stared amazed until he remembered Raph's group staring at him angrily.

“Permission to beat up the suspect for attempting to harm the hostage, inspector.” Raph requested.

“I don’t see why not.” Yuji shrugged before the group, Haru, Glacier and Zeta started beating the tar out of Mimura as Michiru and Zeelo were recovering from the scare before Luna showed up.

“You two okay?” Luna asked.

“YOU SHOULD BE ASKING SHIROU THAT!!!” Michiru and Zeelo pointed out.

“I'm fine.” Shirou assured.

“Thank you.” Michiru said in gratitude as Yuji, Raph, his group, Baron, Haru, Glacier and Zeta arrived with Yaba and Mimura in custody, while the newcomers were shocked to see Shirou shrugging off the pain.

"Everyone okay?” Usagi asked while Kuro rested on his shoulder

“I'm just a little banged up.” Shirou answered.

“Can you walk?” Michiru added another question.

“I can.” Shirou responded.

“What’s with that guy?” Yuji wondered.

“We've received a whole lot worst.” Luna assured.

“Wait, you fell off a roof and survived?!” Raph gawked.

“Pot calling the kettle black.” Shirou pointed out.

“Point taken.” Raph noted.

“Are you really sure you’re okay?” Michiru checked.

“I’m not gonna die.” Shirou replied before he flinched in pain.

“I know the drill.” Luna noted.

“Hey, um… I wanna say thanks for saving us.” Michiru said in gratitude once more.

“Yeah, gracias, Shirou.” Zeelo agreed.

“I promised, didn’t I? That I’d protect the beastmen.” Shirou assured as the heroes smiled.

The next day at the factory, the newcomers met up with Mayor Rose. “Yaba and Mimura confessed to the crime. They were working together to embezzle assets from the medical center. When they found out that the upper management had noticed, they bombed the centers data system. They hired some criminals and staged a fake bombing so that they could erase all of the data exposed in the embezzlement.”

But Michiru and the others weren't buying it. “I’m not sure that’s all though.”

“What do you mean?” Mayor Rose asked.

“His hatred seemed to be focused solely on Michiru.” Usagi noticed.

“That snake of a chameleon tried to blow up the lab just to save his own skin. That’s completely loco.” Zeelo added.

“He knew something he wasn't telling.” Raph said.

“It seems like adults are always trying to hide things that are inconvenient for them. It’s pathetic.” Michiru scoffed.

"Are you talking about me?” Shirou asked as Leatherhead growled.

“Well…" Michiru tried to say.

“I’m sorry. I won’t lock any of you up anymore.” Shirou apologized, making Michiru gasp. “What?”

“It’s just you were such a pain about it before!” Michiru noted.

“I don’t want you to think that I’m like those guys. Just be sure none of you tell anyone about Michiru and Zeelo’s Beastman-itis.” Shirou requested.

“Doesn't matter. We're back to square one on finding a cure.” Raph resopnded.

“Ms. Michiru, Mr. Montes, I’m going to investigate treatment methods for you as well.” Mayor Rose said.

“So you really are her!” Sci-Twi asked in excitement.

“And so I ask again, who are you talking about?” Raph asked.

“She's actually in a science article.” Sci-Twi answered.

“Barbara’s an authority in genetic beastman research. She’s the first beastman who got a doctorate degree.” Luna explained.

“That's actually pretty cool.” Raph admitted.

“That’s true, but I am a politician now. My research was how I built a strong relationship with Sylvasta Pharmaceuticals. Which is why they funded for Anima City.” Mayor Rose informed.

“Hey, you guys coming in?” Mikey asked as everyone walked into the factory and found the place more livable.

“Wow!” Michiru awed in amazement.

“Not bad.” Raph smirked.

“We got decent bunks, working kitchen space, Internet access and cable TV...” Mikey listed.

“And our new battle vehicle. Mikey.” Donnie finished.

“Wait, battle vehicle?” Michiru asked.

“Introducing... The Shellcrusher!” Mikey said as he and Donnie revealed the school bus completely repaired, painted, and overhauled, causing Michiru’s jaw to drop on awe.

“Allow me to go over the features. First, we have the Manhole Cover Launcher...” Donnie started.

“Good.” Raph noted.

“Tow-cable headlights.” Donnie continued.

“Nice.” Leatherhead smirked.

“Harpoon Cannon with Titanium Cable.” Donnie added.

“That’s tough stuff.” Luna noticed.

“Bowling Ball launcher cannon.” Donnie said.

“Why do I feel like that’s already been used?” Pinkie wondered.

“Per Pinkie's orders, a car seat for Gemma.” Donnie informed.

“Yay!” Gemma cheered.

“Thanks, D.” Pinkie smiled.

“Detachable Motorcycle.” Donnie added.

“Dibs.” Raph called out.

“Mobile command center in the back.” Donnie resumed.

“I’ll take it.” Leo volunteered.

“And emergency ejector seats.” Donnie finished.

“This is so cool!” Michiru squealed in excitement.

“Oh, this is just one of the vehicles we have.” Donnie explained.

“Do you kids even have driver's licenses?” Mayor Rose asked, catching the teenagers off guard. “I'm in need of some security. Provide me with some and I'll overlook this inconvenience and pay you."

“Any volunteers?” Leo called out as Raph and Usagi stepped forward.

“We volunteer.” Usagi answered.

“At least I’ll have some fun!” Raph shrugged.

“Excellent.” Mayor Rose smiled as Shirou found twin Scimitar Swords.

“Not bad.” Shirou noted as Zeelo found a balisword.

“You guys don't mind, do ya?” Zeelo asked.

“It's best you guys defend yourselves.” Leo said.

“Even though another eel uses a sword like that.” Raph added.

“I already told you, I’m not like my brother.” Zeelo reminded as Michiru found two Bokken Swords.

“Whoa! Look what I found!” Michiru called out as the Goofballs couldn't help but remember a dear friend of theirs.

“I can make some custom sheaths if you want.” Sonata offered.

“Really?!” Michiru gasped in excitement.

“Of course.” Pinkie nodded.

“We'll help you train tomorrow. I have a feeling we're going to be here for a while.” Leo noted.

“Well, feel free to stay for as long as you find it necessary. And we’ll help find the reason for Sunset, Adagio, Aria and Sonata’s transformations as well.” Mayor Rose added.

“Thank you.” Leo said in gratitude.

“You’re welcome. I try to help those in need.” Mayor Rose smiled, but while none of the group knew this, back home their friends were searching all over town for them.

“Still no luck, anyone?” Flash Sentry asked as the students shook their heads, while Celestia facepalmed herself for not realizing this situation would happen. “Keep searching, call Leo and the others... They got to be around here somewhere.”

“I should’ve known this would happen. But what’ll I tell them? That they’re in a city full of beastmen? Not the best idea.” Celestia thought to herself as she looked at her hands like they were stained with blood. “Or that their own Principal is a Beastman, too? They'd probably just string me up.”

“Principal Celestia?” Flash Sentry called out.

“Huh?” Celestia noticed.

“I said have you heard from Leo or the others?” Flash Sentry repeated, making Celestia grow nervous as she began having an internal conflict with herself.

“No, I haven't.” Celestia answered.

“Okay. But please let us know if something comes up.” Flash Sentry requested.

“I will. Inform the parents and Crystal Prep of their disappearance. It'd widen the search.” Celestia added.

"Good idea." Flash Sentry responded as he ran out with Celestia struggling inside. "I can tell something was wrong with Celestia, but what? She’s still her normal self. Maybe she wants to tell us something but scared of what would happen? Well, she’ll tell us when she’ll tell us." Flash Sentry thought as he continued to search.
