Josuke takes in the scent of the people around him. He can smell the blood of Sheepmen, Pigmen, Humans, Western Dragons, Trolls, Berserkers, Lycans, Aswangs, a Grimm or two, and Tikbalangs.

Josuke snarls softly, walking in the streets of Earth Prince's Burnham City. Josuke yawns as he showed his fangs, causing a few Tikbalangs to immediately jolt away.

"Geez... Summer vacation just started... and it's so friggin' hot..." sighed Josuke.

Prince emerges from Josuke as Prince grabs a poster from the ground.

Josuke's eyes then sparkle.

"Sorbetes!" he smiled.

Josuke reached the new sorbetes place in town, only to gasp. A long line of people is shown waiting for the sorbetes place to open. He sees a few people woged as Sphnixes, Karkadnnans, Tawerets, and Airavatas.

"Dang it!" shouted Josuke. "This'd take hours! I can't woge like other people in this line! Aswangs aren't meant to live in tropical areas! We were known as Vampires and evolved to take the coldness in Germania! Darn! Why was I friggin' born as a Vampire! Geez!
Huh?"

"Oh my God! Oh, God! My arm!" sobbed a Pigman who trembled on the ground.

"I didn't mean to," sobbed the Maltese Tiger. A pair of Sphinx cops pull the Maltese Tiger away.

"Whoa," said Josuke, approaching the phenomenon. "What's happening here?"

"He tore off my arm!" the Pigman sobbed, as his stump bled all over. His arm is shown to be on the ground. "Oh my God! Oh, God!"

His arm is shown to be on the ground, torn off by the Maltese Tiger by accident. A pool of blood is under the arm. The arm twitched erratically. The smell of human meat mixed with pork meat could be smelled in the air. Bones were shown sticking out of the arm, indicating that the pull was rather too strong that it broke and tore off the Pigman's arm.

The Pigman laid on the ground, trembling with his saliva foaming. The Pigman's eyes quivered in horror. He gasped for breath as people tried to approach him. However, he let no one help him, because he's scared of these people who could be predator Cryptids.

"It's okay! I can help!" smiled Josuke.

"Prince Josuke Higashikata," said the Sphinxes, as they bowed.

"What's happening here?" asked Josuke.

"The Maltese Tiger pulled his friend's arm to try and run to the sorbetes shop. The friend is a Pigman," said the cop. "He ended up tearing the Pigman's arm off."

Josuke smiled and approached the Pigman.

"No! You're a Vampire!" sobbed the Pigman. "I don't want a monster like you to touch me! Please! I'm..." his eyes quivered. "I'm terrified. Please..." His saliva began to foam. "Please!" he screamed and wailed.

Prince emerged and punched the man's arm, as it went back on his shoulder.

The Pigman, however, stood up and threw his fist toward Josuke, only for Josuke to slip on a sorbetes as he fell to the ground. The Pigman then punches a pole which happens to be behind Josuke.

"GAH!!!" shouted the Pigman, as his hand is fractured.

"Sorry," said Josuke.

"YOU'RE ONE OF THEM!!! YOU'RE A PREDATOR!!!" shouted the Pigman. "YOU'RE A MONSTER!!! A FREAK!!!"

"What!?" asked Josuke, slowly backing away with his hands pushing air away. "Whoa, whoa, whoa! Sir, I was just trying to help."

The man trembled from the trauma. "You're an animal!" he sobbed. "We're all animals! Animals! Animals!" he sobbed. "We shouldn't have been born!"
