[WARNING: Vandalism, abuse, aguring, assault, and murder]

Snowball awoke to the sound of Pin and Leafy shouting, a jolt of epinephrine coursing through his veins. He reluctantly sat up from the couch, his heart pounding in his chest.

He walked into the kitchen, his eyes wide with fear. Pin was towering over Leafy, her face contorted with rage. Leafy was huddled in a corner, her body trembling.

"SO YOUR'E BACKING OUT NOW!?" Pin screamed, her voice filled with venom.

Leafy tried to speak, but her fear rendered her speechless. She could only nod, her eyes filled with tears.

"THAT'S IT!" Pin shouted, her voice filled with rage. She raised her fist, ready to bash Leafy.

Snowball rushed over, pushing Pin aside and grabbing Leafy. "WHAT THE HELL WAS THAT FOR, PIN?!" he shouted, his voice filled with anger.

Pin was surprised, but quickly regained her composure. "What does it matter to you, Snowball?" she retorted, her tone dripping with sarcasm.

Snowball's eyes narrowed. "What do you mean? Of course, it matters to me! You're hurting Leafy!" he exclaimed, his voice filled with concern.

Leafy looked up at Snowball, her eyes filled with gratitude. She had been so scared, and now she felt safe.

"Get out... I'll deal with her," Snowball whispered to Leafy, his voice barely audible.

Leafy nodded, her heart pounding in her chest. She knew she had to leave, and fast. She turned and ran out the door, not looking back.

As she ran, she could hear the faint arguing of Snowball and Pin. She tried to ignore it, to focus on escaping...

"Psst... Leafy...?" A voice called out from above, concern lacing the words.

Leafy jolted up, wiping her tears away. She looked around frantically, searching for the source of the voice.

"It's me... Firey!" Firey said, swinging from the cage above. He had a horrified look on his face, but he was also relieved to see Leafy.

"Fi... Firey!" Leafy cried out, her voice filled with excitement. She started running towards the Yoyle Needy, nothing stopping her.

Dashing up the stairs, she tripped once or twice, her haste getting the better of her. But she didn't let it deter her. She had to rescue Firey, she put her feelings aside to save him..

Leafy reached the top floor, her heart pounding in her chest. Memories of the past flashed through her mind, including the day she and Pin had watched the fight from above.

She looked down at Firey, her eyes filled with determination. She didn't know how she was going to get him out of the cage, but she was gonna try..

"Firey, grab onto my hand!" Leafy extended her hand towards the cage.

Firey reached out, his arm poking out through the bars. Leafy leaned forward, her grip tightening around Firey's wrist.

With a burst of strength, Leafy pulled Firey out of the cage. He landed on the ground with a thud, his body trembling with relief.
