Summer was up long before sunrise. Well, more like she barely
slept. She hadn’t dared to visit Rita, and could only hope that the
muthical creatures won’t be going into hiding. Her heart ached as
she thought of the fact that Rita will die one day, but she won’t.
She flapped her wings and called for the other volunteers.
Rita stared numbly at the wall of her bedroom. Summer hadn’t
visited, which either meant she thought it was too risky, or she
was captured. Most likely the former... She rubbed away the tear
from her eye and began her morning routine.

Samton was up much earlier than usual. Seeing another volunteer up,
he flew to Summer. "So, big day huh? It's too bad such a meeting is
held only in emergency situations. It's a moment of community, or
at least could've been, if we held it more often for other reasons
too. But that isn't the issue now. What do you think will happen?"
“I’m hoping for us to not decide on hiding.” Summer replied, her
wings flapping. “I hope we’ll be able to co-exist with the humans,
but that’s a slim chance anyone will agree... Besides, there are
both ‘good’ and ‘bad’ humans...” She sighed. “As long as we don’t
go into hiding again, I’m fine with it.”

"Hiding probably won't work, but coexistence has an even slimmer
chance. Humans enjoy hunting mythical beings down, and often
they've got many of us. Human's self-denial was something which
helped us, but we can't use it anymore, since they have solid
proof. They will find us. Well, its to decide what we are going to
do, that we're going to the meeting."
“Mm-hmm... Some humans enjoy hunting mythical creatures
down. I’ve seen some that are willing to help, and I’m sure you
have as well.” Summer replied. She sighed heavily mentally.
Rita, Rita... How will I see you again, if we aren’t permitted
to and if no one believes mythical creatures and humans can
co-exist? She looked around anxiously, wondering when everyone
else were coming.

Moeru woke up before sunrise, he spread his wings out before taking
off and flying around the volcano a bit before he noticed Summer
and Samton, he hovered in the air for a bit before landing behind
them “talking about that meeting huh?” He said
“Yeah, kind of.” Summer replied. She held back a yawn of
exhaustion. She wished she could take a quick trip to the human
world. After all, she could only imagine how worried Rita was.
Hopefully she was doing fine...
Rita finished her breakfast and trudged outside. It was Monday, so
she had work to do. She dragged herself towards the coffee shop she
worked at. Why would she be working there, since she preferred tea?
So she wouldn’t start drinking coffee meant for the customers, of
course.

Ember let out a yawn as the sun rose. She got out of bed and got
ready to go out. Her friends had agreed to meet at the coffee shop
nearby to hang out. She and her two friends reached it when it just
opened so it wasn't crowded yet. She went to the counter to order
for the three of them.
Rita spotted Ember. “May I take your order?” She asked, her notepad
on the counter, a pen in her right hand and a bottle of tea in her
left hand. She paused to take a sip, waiting for an order. Her
bottle had a phoenix on it, drawn by Rita in the mirror image of
Summer. Apparently it was weird to see someone drink tea in a
coffee shop, much less one of the workers, but Rita didn’t really
care.

Ember nodded at the cashier. " 2 Lattes and a Cappucino please,"
she said as she saw the waiter taking a sip from a nice looking
bottle which had a picture of a phoenix printed onto it. She
smiled. The phoenix was probably one of her favourite mythical
animals. She realised that the cashier was drinking tea and let out
a little laugh.
"It's funny to see someone drink tea in a coffee shop," she
giggled. "But I guess both have caffeine anyway so makes sense,"
she added.
“Good to see you know that.” Rita wrote down the order and went off
to make coffee. She came back in a couple of minutes with the cups.
As a joke, she always wrote “tea” on the surface of anything
ordered, and this time was no exception. She handed the cups to
Ember and added, “That would be ___.” She told Ember the price.
((I have no idea how coffee shops work or how much they cost))

Ember took the drinks from the cashier and paid the bill. She saw
tea written on the cup and gave her a funny look.
"Oh well, I never really liked coffee anyway," she giggled. To be
honest, the only reason she was joining them was that she had
nothing to do.
Samton noticed something different in Summer's behavior. "Your
distress is not just due to the current problems, Summer. Am I
correct?" Samton looked at her, waiting for an answer. He was
concerned something bad had happened. He looked around to see if
more volunteers are coming, then, seeing Moeru, said, "Yeah, pretty
much."
“What do you think will happen? Will we go into hiding or
something, I hope that doesn’t happen” Moeru said before looking at
Summer, he thought she was just nervous because of the whole dragon
and griffin being revealed to the humans along with other mythical
creatures potentially being revealed to them, he sighs a bit before
turning to Samton again
"If we go hiding again, they'll likely find us. Its not like the
1st or 2nd millenia, when we flew here and there. They're much more
advanced." Samton's voice was filled with fear he tried his best to
hide, but couldn't by the end of it. He sighed. "We may even be
looking a war in the face right now."
“That will be bad if that does happen, a war between humans
and mythical creatures, we won’t be sure who will win if that
happens, but we do know it will be chaos between both of our
worlds” Moeru said, he wasn’t even trying to hide the fear in his
voice as he spoke unlike Samton, he just though about if even one
of them get captured by a human, they could enter their world and
cause havoc and that will start the war, he just hopes that
won’t happen anytime soon
“Umm, yeah... I didn’t sleep very well last night. Excitement.”
Summer told Samton by way of explanation. She hoped he wouldn’t ask
more. She didn’t want to lie, nor does she like it, nor is she good
at it. “Not all humans want war, though. They are fearful of what
they don’t understand, and when you fear, fight-or-flight kicks in.
If they understood us better, though, maybe they’ll be less
fearful. If we show them that we’re willing to co-exist, maybe
they’ll do the same.”
Rita grinned. “Have a good life!” She called after Ember.

Ember smiled as she was about to walk away and waved at Rita, the
badge on her shirt said so so she guessed it was her name. "You
too," she answered back. "And enjoy your tea," she added and walked
out the coffee shop door. She gave her friend's drinks and they
insisted they go shopping. Ember wasn't a fan of it so she said
that she'll just go to the park. Her friends just shrugged and
walked away, waving goodbye to her while Ember went in the opposite
direction.
“We probably won’t know until it happens, humans, by nature, are
extremely random, we won’t know what they will do until it happens,
sure some won’t do that but that doesn’t mean all of them will do
so, and I’m pretty sure they won’t just casually let mythical
creatures like us coexist with them without something
happening” Moeru said as he stared at Summer, why did she keep
thinking of humans in a good light? Even though he isn’t aggressive
or hate them in anyway, he didn’t really think of them as a
peaceful creature either
Wylia got up from her slumber. "Ha-Aaaa! I'm late. Need to go to
the human world !"
Wylia ran swiftly from her cave and jumped off the cliff. She
opened up her wings and glided across the morning air.
Then, she opened up a portal to the human world. But,
BUMPPP!!!!
She bumped right into a tree.
"Ouch ! That hurt. I'ma gonna have to practise portal opening
more."
Meanwhile, Ash had finished lunch and was getting up to leave to
the countryside.
"Let's go." Ash sighed, still unable to belive that he had
not seen a Kitsune. He was pretty sure he did.
