Alice holds onto him tightly as she slowly falls asleep on his back, her last words awake being, "You're back is warm."

"Stay with me, lady," Hiro pants. Within a few minutes, Hiro took them to a low building with sliding, wooden doors, an old man smoking a long pipe on the porch. "Master, we got guests," he ghasped before collapsing from exhaustion.

Alice cuddles up next to him, trying to obtain more warmth.

Erica slowly begun to wake up and automatically shot up to her paws but yelped in pain then collapsed to the ground.

Without saying a word, the man stands up, scoops up the boy and woman and fox under his arm and takes them inside. From there he sets about bandaging wounds, setting up tea, and smacking Hiro on the forehead. "Ouch! What'd I do!?"

Erica automatically squirmed away from the other man whimpering.

She slowly sits up, shivering slightly. "You left me to be cold you meanie!" She points at Hiro accusingly, pulls her knees to her chest, still shivering.

She limps over to her sister curling up next to her protectively.

"Hey, your body-heat isn't my problem!"

"Yamero!" grunted the man who fixed them up

"Hai!" peeped Hiro. The man points to the tea tray, now covered in cups full of fresh hot tea. Without a word, Hiro runs to the tray and hurries it over to Azucena. "Here you are, miss, please accept our hospitality."

Erica growls at the man who yanked alice's tail.

She giggles slightly, taking a cup of tea, almost spilling it in the process. "Why thank you. I appreciate your kindness and all you have done, though I believe my sister is still mad."

"Please forgive my student's impertinence," says the man, stroking his long beard. "He means well, but he is an energetic boy, you know how they are."

"Forgive me, Master Fogi," grumbled Hiro.

"Hmm!?"

"I mean forgive me, Master Fogi!!" Hiro says more eagerly, a twinge of fear in his voice.

Erica realized that this older man was the master of this place and walked over to him with a slight limp and bowed her head in hello out of courtesy.

"Ahh... So that's why....." She shakes her head slightly. "It's fine. And I'm sorry about earlier, my manners were off. I haven't been feeling myself lately." She points to the fox. "My sister keeps getting either me, her, or both of us hurt and it's annoying me."

"Hiro," said the man. "You have brought a great deal of trouble to our dojo."

"What? How?"

"The Neko and Kitsune are a hunted race," said Fogi. "You bringing them here will bring bounty hunters to our door."

Erica whimpers in a sincere apology still bowing her head her eyes on the floor.

Alice picks up her sister, swiftly setting her on her own head. "Sorry about that, by the way. Oh and Hiro, you left your weights."

Erica whimpers and grumbles in response growling slightly.

"Hiro, go get your weights and bring them back."

Hiro let out a light whimper. "Hai, sensei..." Hiro turned and left out the sliding door.

She smiles, setting her sister back down, healing her in the process.
