Suga
The war has begun with The Top Kingdom.
Her voice echoes throughout the throne room.
Kawa
Damn!! Can't they give us a fucking break!?
Atsu
Calm down, Kawababe
Kawa
Do you think I want to fucking calm down? Almost fucking every day, like I am wasting my goddamn time and powers fighting them!
Kaashi
Kawa, calm down.
Kaashi didn't change her expression, but her tone was different when she got mad.
Kawa
Yes, Kaashi.
With Kawa's quiet and ashamed voice, she crouched behind Atsu. As they stepped out, looking over the balcony.
Suga
Here we go!
Jumping over the balcony, they spread their wings and met their enemy at The Dragon River.
Daichi
Rumor has traveled
Suga
What fucking rumors?
Feeling a bit offended since it's a rumor spread from within their kingdom, how can this kind of rumor cause a war between two kingdoms?
Ushijima
Containing information that you're becoming a tyrant to your people as if your people are your slaves and nothing more.
Yaku
Holy mother fucking bitch!
The slight movement of her lips as they formed a whistle.
Suga
Wait, Yaku! LIES! Those are untrue. We have been treating our people as our own family; they are family. What's the purpose of treating our people as animals? We have our situation to deal with right now.
The Tops look at each other in disbelief and confusion.
Tsukishima
Prove that the rumor is a lie.
Kawa
Is there a possibility of just killing them already?!
Suga glared at her, and she looked away.
Suga
Kawa brings her here.
Kawa
Fine!
Kawa flew back to the kingdom, dropping into one of the houses near the gate.
Maria
PUT ME DOWN! I didn't do anything wrong.
Kawa rolled her eyes.
Kawa
Shut up.
Carrying her up above the river, Kawa just 'accidentally' dropped her off.
Suga
Kawa! You better watch it.
Kawa grunted as she grabbed Atsu's hand, causing her friend to giggle.
Iwaizumi glanced and looked away as if it didn't bother her.
Kaashi
Explain! Tell them that the rumor is a lie, and you spread them yourself.
Maria dusted the dirt off her clothes and rolled her eyes.
Maria
Wow, is it that easy to accuse an innocent person?
Kawa
Shit! Atsu, I swear to you that today will be her last.
Kawa couldn't control it anymore; her veins were already showing from her anger against Maria. Atsu caressed her friend's face, putting her under a sleeping spell.
Atsu
Shh, have a goodnight's sleep. Makki?
Makki
I know.
With just a flick of her hand, a bed of flowers spreads out near them, and she gently places Kawa on top.
Atsu
Sorry, Sugamama.
Suga
I am glad you're her best friend.
Atsu smiled and squeezed Kawa's hand.
Suga
Maria.
Maria
Yes, it's all true!! I made them up. What's the issue? I wouldn't even care if this kingdom gets destroyed anyway. I'm just a simple servant of the palace.
Kita glared at her and sighed.
Kita
Suga? What do you think we should do?
Suga rubbed her forehead, and her eyes flickered, but Yachi looked at her.
Suga
I'm sorry, well. I guess this is all over, and Kaashi.
Kaashi
Yes.
She grabbed hold of Maria and smiled at her while Yachi led Suga home.
Atsu
Suna, a bit of help? Please.
Suna
Sure.
Suna levitates Kawa toward the castle, Atsu following behind. The rest looked at each other and nodded.
Kita
I'm sorry; now is a bit complicated, so excuse us.
The Top just nodded and headed back to their kingdom.

Top's POV
Daichi
As you all can see, they explained that we are not at war.
Tsukishima
What if they are lying?
Iwaizumi
Why would they lie? Have you heard what the black and white hair said?
Aran
Yea, I do not understand the meaning of their hard time.
Kageyama
Maybe a loved one died?
Lev
Maybe they must deal with some pressure and stress.
Kogane
I mean, have you guys seen the way they look?
Matt
True, some look like they haven't slept or have no strength to fight.
-------------------------------------
Bottom's POV
Atsu
Let's all rest, and I can help you guys fall asleep.
Opening the door to their shared bedroom, Atsu sang them a lullaby song enchanted with the sleeping spell; their eyes grew heavy.
Everyone
Goodnight, sleep tight.
Kita
Atsu?
Atsu
Hey, Kita. I helped them, that's all. I didn't overdo it.
Kaashi
I have found some information from Maria.
Kita raised her eyebrows, and Atsu tensed up.
Kita
What kind of information?
Kaashi cleared her throat and shifted her posture.
Kaashi
Maria said this wasn't the end, and they were coming for us.
Kita and Atsu looked in the room.
Atsu
Shit, fuck!
Kita
Why now? Why the fuck are they doing this now?
The three sighed and huddled next to everyone else, sleeping already nagging at them as they closed their eyes.
The next day, there was pounding surrounding the walls. It woke up the girls, who were soundly asleep.
Suga
What the heck is happening?
Kita
Let me go check.
Kita heads out to the main door; as she nears the door, she could hear banging and yelling.
Villagers
COME OUT!
LIARS!!!
SURRENDERED NOW!!!
GIVE US BACK OUR PEARLS!
Kita
Shit! What the hell?
She ran toward the room and stopped, breathing hard.
Kita
Guys.. hah... we... hah.
Suga
Calm down, control your breathing, and talk.
Kita
WE NEED TO RUN!
Suga
You heard her, run toward the emergency house.
They grabbed their clothes and flew out of the castle.
The villagers broke down the big door and were able to enter, finding no one.
Villagers
THEY GOT OUT!
DON'T LET THEM COME BACK!
WE NEED TO KILL THEM ALL IF THEY COME BACK!!
THEY BETRAYED US!!!
Kawa
What the fuck just happened? What do they mean we betrayed them?
Suga
Stop talking; we need to hurry before they get there before us. We will talk when we arrive.
They flew far from the castle, only taking breaks when they couldn't fly anymore, and tiredness crawled at their skin. Some are confused, and some are frustrated.
Yahaba
Come on! We are almost there.
They saw a blue house over the hill, but Maria was already standing there with a smug look on her face.
Suga
KAWA!
Kawa surrounded the house with flowers, but Maria burned them down.
Kawa
MARIA!
Maria
Haha, say goodbye to your little hideout.
Suga
HOSHI NOW!
Hoshi
On it!
Hoshi started to form a big bubble of water around Maria, throwing them at her.
Suga
Teru, help her!
She opened her mouth and blew; she pointed them toward Maria.
Maria
HELP!
Villagers
LOOK! THEY ARE KILLING HER!
Suga
Fuck! Run, girls!
They flew away, but Yachi got hit by a fireball from Maria.
Yachi
Ugh! Suga!
Suga
NO! Not another one, Yachi. Noya! Yams!
Noya put a shield up while Yams surrounded the villagers and Maria with the spiderwebs.
Kaashi
Let's go! We can't stay here; some of us will return to see if anything has been left from the fire.
The girls flew to the mountain.
Hinata
I found a cave; come on. Yahaba, Makki, and Kawa. Can you guys surround this place with flowers and a big bed?
The three nodded, did what Hinata asked, and Suga rested Yachi down.
Suga
Yachi, I am so sorry. Please forgive me.
Yachi
Sugamama, calm down. Hoshi, please.
Hoshi splashed small water on her wound, and she winced. Kaashi wraps a bunch of flowers around her wound.
Kaashi
The wound on her shoulder won't affect anything, but it might leave a scar.
Suga started crying; they gave her a group hug.
Suga
Please, not another one; we already lose James (Suga's son).
Kita
Suga, we will prevent any more injuries or death that will happen. Therefore, Atsu, please let her rest.
Atsu nodded and let Suga rest.
Kaashi
Look at how much food and money we have so that some of us go back to the emergency house later at night.
The girls nodded, and Kita stepped forward.
Kita
We need at least five people to go back.
Hinata raises her hand, then Noya and Kino. The rest look at the three, but then Hoshi steps forward.
Kita
Okay, I will go with those four, and you guys stay here.
Kita took the four toward the entrance and labeled each one with a small fox on their wrist.
Hinata
Shit, that hurt.
Kita
Sorry, it burns, but this is a way for me to locate where you are.
The four nodded.
Yaku
Atsu, help me sleep. I don't think I can be able to by myself.
Atsu
Sure, here, lay down and Kawa.
Kawa looked at her; she glared and patted the space next to her. She nodded.
Yahaba
What are we going to do after? We have to go back.
Some girls looked at Yahaba, hanging upside down from the vines.
Yahaba
I mean, we can't let Maria take over control of the kingdom; who knows what might happen?
Kawa
What the actual fuck!?
Kaashi glared at her, and she huddled close to Atsu.
Hinata
She is correct, we can't have that, and maybe we can get help from the neighboring kingdom.
Kaashi
Let's ask for help after trying to find out why this happened and who is behind it.
They all yawned and huddled together, but then they heard a wolf crying out.
Kenma
Holy mother fucking shit! I hate dogs, someone help!
Hinata came toward Kenma and held her close to her.
Hinata
Kunimi?
Kunimi nodded and let Kenma sleep.
Hinata
Thanks, Kunimi.
Kaashi
Suna?
She nodded and shapeshifted into a snake; she slithered toward the noise.
Suna
Hm? I wonder if it is injured or lost. I should bring it with me.
She shapeshifted back to her original form and brought the wolf with her, but she didn't realize that another dog was following her. A bigger dog. She entered the cave.
Ten
Holy shit. You brought something else with you, Suna. Haha.
Suna
What the hell are you talking though?
She raised her eyebrow and shook her head.
Yams
Look behind you.
She turned around and fell to the ground.
Suna
Holy shit. I didn't hear it following me.
Atsu stood up and slowly approached the big black dog.
Yahaba
Holy shit, Atsu. What the hell are you doing? Get away from that thing.
Atsu
But it's injured and was protecting the little cub.
She slowly touches the muzzle; the dog back away, but Atsu slides her hand around it's face.
Atsu
Good, shh. It's okay. Kaashi, I think its leg is injured.
Kaashi looked at her and nodded, she treated the little one first, but when she tried to approach the big dog, it was about to bite her hand.
Kaashi
Shit, I guess I have to wait till it falls asleep.
Atsu nodded her head and snuggled close to the dog.
Kawa
Damn, this dog is stealing my best friend.
She pouted and stomped around. They all laugh at her behavior.
Atsu
Come on, Kawa. He won't bite, and I won't let him, okay?
Kawa hesitated for a minute, looking at Atsu and the dog. Then, finally, she shrugged and slowly approached Atsu.
Atsu
See, that was easy; come, let's all go to sleep.
They all went to sleep, but the five head out and went back to the blue house.
