<i>It was that dream again.  Karogen was standing there, hidden in the bushes of his father's mansion- he had finally found the man who had ruined his life, and now he was going to kill him.  The officials wouldn't even look into his death- rich or not, he was still human.<br/>The blood of his father's gaurd-slaves coated Karogen's blades.  The young boy grinned, licking the blood from his punching dagger as he looked into the window at his unsuspecting father.  Karogen's body ached in pain, his heart throbbing.  For the second time in his life, he had taken the fur's beserker juice.  The human anatomy couldn't handle it- Karogen knew that once it wore down, he would most likely fall into a week-long coma again.<br/>The next thing Karogen knew, he was over his father, pinning his arms to the ground with his knees.  Karogen's blade was at his father's throat.</i><br/><br/>Karogen awoke with a start.   How long had he been asleep?  It could have been an hour... could have been twelve.  No telling, in the absolue darkness of this room.<br/>Hesitating a little, Karogen called out into the darkness.  "Hey, old man, you there?"<br/><br/>------------------------------------------<br/><br/>Jenten glanced sideays at Emiko.  "By the way, that was a good idea."<br/>Emiko leaned her head to the side.  "What was?"<br/>"Making sure it was you two that were armed, and not me.  With tensions the way they are right now, they mighta just killed us all had they seen a fur approach with a weapon."<br/>Emiko laughed abit, somewhat coldly.  "As I've told you a million times before, I know exactly what I'm doing."<br/><br/>More time passed as nothing happened.<br/><br/>Emiko yawned.  "Hey, you two... I'm gonna go check in with that guy that let us join.  He seemed pretty much in-charge around here."<br/><br/>Jenten simply nodded.  Marice was too busy polishing the pretty shiny blades she had recently aquired to respond.<br/><br/>Emiko stretched her small body out abit,before walking over to the first sergeant.  "Hey there.  Just checking in, letting you know nothing's going on, and the peace protesters are being...well, peaceful."  She gently brushed aside a lock of her dark brown hair from  her face.  "By the way, don't think we had introduced ourselves.  My name is Emiko Shinami.  My friends back there are Marice and Jenten."  She extended her hand.  "And you are...?"<br/><br/>--------------------------------------------------<br/><br/>"Damnit.   Damnit all to hell!"  Sherra threw her weapon to the ground as she watched her town burn.  Her feline eyes were intensified with rage. "Everything's gone!!  Damned humans!!"<br/><br/>"Hey!  You don't mean that..."  Said a small feminine human male standing beside her.  He straightened out his unruly blonde hair, sighing.<br/><br/>"It's alright, Kitten.  I'm not mad at you... I just don't get it!  House Blotar was kind to thier human slaves!  Hell, we were supporters of that equality movement that had been growing!  Why did this happen HERE!!?  Where can I even GO now!?"<br/><br/>The ironically-named human, Kitten, just sighed and looked down.  "Wherever you go, mistress, I'm with you.  Those Resistance humans were barbaric... they even killed other humans that refused to join them.  Those are not my family.  You are."<br/><br/>Sherra sighed.  "I heard this is happening all over.  We have to do something to stop this!  We have to fight!!"<br/><br/>"Yes ma'am...  Last I heard, the fight's still going on in Kazmer... If you really want to fight, my lady, I'll fight by your side."
