Collab between Fox and Rabbit

Everything in the town of Yonder felt wrong. Serenade was far from psychic, but her gut told her the place was just bad news. Everything from the lake to the mayor just felt bad...but why it felt that way she couldn't understand at all. It was an illogical fear, silly considering she always tried to find reason in things.

[b]"Serenade, mind if I join you?"[/b]

Suddenly, she felt a hand on her shoulder and it made her freeze. The chilly fog and the near death situation the humans had gotten into had made her jumpier than usual. She took in a breath of air then turned around to see Two-Thirds smiling. "Oh, it's just you." She returned the smile, though the look of worry didn't leave her face. Something wasn't right, did the other guides feel it too? Did the humans know? Why had they marched towards the lake like zombies...what did the siren tempt them with? There were too many unanswered questions and they irritated the black hare to no end. "It's rather cold out, you should follow the others..." there was a pause, "but I'll need all the help I can get, so thank you." 

The black rabbit nodded her head then made her way through the fog, she made sure to keep Mado in her sights, but it was harder to keep up than she had imagined and soon the two guides found themselves just outside Mayor Spicy Tuna's house. Serenade shook her head. "Whatever mischief she's up to, we need to stop her. Let's go, two." Mado hid in a giant pot and Serenade decided to play along, she pulled two by the hand and they ducked behind a bush, as soon as Mado thought the coast was clear she hopped stepped out of the pot and jumped into the mayors window. 

Serenade cursed beneath her breath. "She's a little unstable, Two. We'll need to stop her before anyone gets hurt."

The two guides dashed towards the glass window only to see Mado, waving a knife threateningly at the mayor. Why were the humans she got stuck with the crazy and unreasonable ones. 

"What on earth?" The Mayor's eyes grew twice their size and he eyed the knife with a frown. This girl was insane. "Where are the guides and are they with you? How on earth did you get in here?"

Two-Thirds nodded at Serenade's directions and followed her to duck behind a bush. It has made him uneasy that the black rabbit is in so much visible discomfort at the situation but decided that the current situation at hand is more important. Serenade said that Mado is unstable and after all they just can't let the mayor become a dish by the mercy of a blade.

[i](sushi or sashimi?)[/i]

Two-Thirds blinked. Mado has somehow entered the the mayor's house in an oddly heroic fashion before the nobody can come up with a counteraction. Before he could dash into the house, Mado's second question caught his attention. It clicked something in Two-Thirds into place and restored his composure. 

[i](Tell me what you know about the drowning, or be turned to a dish of your choice.)[/i]

At the moment, Two-Thirds tugged Serenade to a halt and they both stumbled down to duck under the window pane. The Nobody put a single claw lightly to the black rabbit's lips with a furtive smile and a glance towards the house's interior. [i]We'll see what the mayor would do to save himself.[/i] Two-Thirds is positive, even if Mado were to go a little too far, they would stop her in time.

A look of confusion crossed the black rabbit's features before she finally understood what Two was trying to do. So they would let Mado scare the mayor then learn as much as they could, huh? The tea maker was much more devious than she thought. At first the plan seemed a little cruel, and Mado was well unpredictable and unstable. However, they would need information and anything involving the drowning was bound to be crucial, right?

"Listen, human. Get that thing away from my face. I don't know anything about the drowning. I only know it's caused by some wretched siren. Now out with you, please." He glared at the human and waved a fin in the door's direction. "Tomorrow I plan to speak with your guides, but for now, please leave."

The black rabbit didn't know what Mado would do, but she kept her head low and listened. Two-Thirds was relieved that Serenade did not struggle to provide the mayor protection. Nonetheless, he stayed alerted.
