(This takes place right where the last chapter left off.)

I woke up and checked a clock, it was about midnight. I noticed Vanilla was awake as well. "Can't sleep?" I whispered. Vanilla nodded. Milk was still asleep on top of me so I carefully slid her off me as Vanilla stood up. I gently patted Milk on the head and pulled the blanket over her, leaving her a note telling her where we went. Vanilla changed into her clothes and pulled on her shoes. I pulled on my boots and a shirt, then pulled on my trench coat. I heard a knock at the door. I saw Coconut standing outside. I let her in. "Hey, is Royal awake?" She asked. Sure enough, he was. "Hey Coconut, what's up?" Royal asked. "I couldn't sleep and wanted to come over for a visit," Coconut said. Vanilla and I started to leave when Coconut and Royal asked if they could come too. "Why not?" Vanilla said. Vanilla, Coconut, Royal, and I all went for a nice moonlight stroll. About halfway through, we came across an ice cream shop. I flipped through my wallet. "Don't tell Kashou," I said with a snicker as we got some ice cream. We relaxed by the bay as we ate our ice cream. Coconut's started to melt and I handed her my handkerchief as we finished the ice cream. Vanilla yelped as she and Coconut fell over the railing somehow. They splashed into the water and I pulled off my trench coat and my shirt, then hopped in after them. Royal jumped in too and Vanilla wrapped her arms around my shoulders and Coconut grabbed onto Royal. I grabbed my trench coat and pulled out some towels. (How? I don't know, if he really searched through his pockets they probably lead to Narnia or some alternate dimension where all the stuff is kept.) We dried ourselves off and I handed my dry shirt to Coconut. She pulled on the shirt and wrapped the towel around her waist. I handed her my belt and she used it to help hold the towel in place, then handed her my trench coat as well. She pulled it on and I pulled a hospital blanket out of one of the pockets. Vanilla put her wet clothes with Coconut's in a plastic bag and I wrapped the blanket around Vanilla, then picked her up. "I wish I were smaller like Vanilla," Coconut said with a sigh. "What, so Royal could carry you? If it's okay with Vanilla I could carry you," I said. "Is it okay with you?" Coconut asked Vanilla. Vanilla nodded. I handed Vanilla to Royal and he carried her in his arms. I picked up Coconut and she rested her head on my shoulder. "Thank you," Coconut said, wrapping her arms around my neck. I carefully picked up the bag that Coconut and Vanilla's clothes were in so as not to accidentally drop Coconut. We walked back to the shop and along the way Coconut had fallen asleep in my arms. I gently nudged her awake. I threw all our clothes in the washing machine and we all hopped in the shower and I undid the hair tie holding my braid together. "Damn, I didn't know your hair could grow that long... Jeez, that's going to take like two bottles of shampoo and conditioner to wash thoroughly," Coconut said. "It had some help from some magic, but you're right, it takes forever to clean," I replied. After about an hour washing my hair, I wrung it out and dried myself off. I walked out to the living room and handed Coconut and Vanilla their clothes. "Our clothes are still drying," I said to Royal as I sat down on the couch. I grabbed one of my energy drinks and tossed it to Royal and one to Coconut as well. I heard the dryer stop making noises and grabbed Royal's clothes as well as mine. He pulled on his jeans and I grabbed everybody's shoes before the salt water dried on them and cleaned them. I finished and stretched. It was almost morning so I grabbed the materials needed and made pancakes. After breakfast, Vanilla and I went into the bedroom and went to take a nap. Vanilla changed into her nightgown and slid under the blanket on top of me and I gently stroked Vanilla's head, then fell asleep with her laying on top of me.

(Milk's perspective)

There was a loud bang downstairs and I was startled by it. Raven, Royal, and Coconut all went downstairs to investigate. I didn't hear anything else downstairs. Someone scary looking walked up the stairs and walked closer to me, holding a baseball bat with blood on it. I was terrified and froze. He held a finger to his lips, gesturing for me to keep quiet. He came closer to me and pushed up my shirt sleeve. He pulled out a syringe and poked it into my arm. I didn't try to stop him, not wanting to know or end up the same as whatever happened to everybody else. He walked into Onee-chan's room and came out with Onee-chan slung over his shoulder. I was too terrified to stop him. He left and I started feeling very ill. I quickly ran into Onee-chan's room to find the nice man who took care of me laying on his side. I woke him up.
