//------------------------------// // Runaway Beastmen // Story: Equestria Ninja Girls: Brand New Animal // by RainbowRaptorDash1 //------------------------------// 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.
