As it was, today seemed like it was just going to seem like a normal day. But life always has its surprises, doesn't it?

Beast Co-op

Everyone was having their morning meal, when Melissa was scolding Jem, holding a feather up to him.

Melissa: Jem! I told you not to take a bath when you're morphed! The feathers clog the drain!

Jem: Can't I take a bath how I want?

Melissa: Can't you even keep a simple promise like that? The Silver Wolf is watching, you know!

Tee and Michiru look over to the small statue that was the main attention. One of the revered-

Michiru: Silver Wolf...?

Tee: Wasn't that Silver wolf was Kids in Rabbits Town was talking about?

Jem: Michiru, Tee, don't you even know who Silver Wolf is?

Michiru: We've heard a little bit.

Jem: Ah, but that's no good! Allow me to explain!

He brings out a scrapbook and opens in up to the first page. It seems to be made up of illustrations regarding Silver Wolf.

Shirou: Does the human have to know?

Jem: Of course he does, don't be rash! Now, beastmen and humans have had varying relationships in every era. But no matter the era, beastmen have always encountered a crisis. That's when our savior arrives. That savior is Silver Wolf In the past 1,000 years, there have been legends of Silver Wolf saving beastmen all over the world.

When Jem finished his story. Tee begin to ponder why a Wolf saving people sounds so... Familiar. As if it's something his experienced first hand but when? Does it have to do with that Beastman who save Tee so long ago.

Michiru: Did you draw these, Jem?

Tee: They're very well-drawn!

Jem: Thank you, this is how I'll make money for my retirement.

Melissa: Hey, quit changing the subject! You're always doing that!

While Melissa was bickering with Jem, Shirou was walking out by himself. Tee and Michiru caught that however.

Michiru: Are you going out?

Tee: It could be good to probably join up.

You and Michiru stand up and walk over to the door, but just before they were on the way out, Melissa shouts out.

Melissa: Hey, you three!

Melissa goes near the shrine and prays, before offering an encased leaf slab to the three each.

Melissa: Here.

Tee: Hey, what're these? You do always give 'em to us.

Melissa: It's a good luck charm to keep you safe. Give it to Silver Wolf when he helps you-

Shirou: There won't be any reason he would help a human.

Melissa: Silver Wolf wouldn't be shy in helping a human in need as much as beastmen. Tee is nice- mannered enough, I'm sure he would be an exception.

Shirou: Tsk.

Michiru: Well, thank you for these. See you later.

A smile and wave later, the three head out to the streets. Shirou, without delay, bites down on the food that was meant to be saved.

Michiru: You'll get in trouble!

Shirou: A god isn't someone who will only help people if you give him food in exchange.
