Baron hugged Haru and she laid her head on his chest.

"Sweetheart, I don't trust Machida to be sure that he won't be coming back. I think we should move." Baron looked at her in surprise.

"Are you sure love?" Haru nodded.

"Mom doesn't want me anymore anyway." Baron kissed her forehead.

"Toto, where do you think we should go?" he asked.

"How about Brasil? I have a feeling we could help a lot of people there," replied Toto.

"What about you Muta?" asked Haru.

"I think I'll go with you, just 'cause it's warmer down there," he replied gruffly. Everything settled, Baron helped Haru mount Toto before mounting. Toto grabbed Muta and flew off. Toto circled around once before heading southwest. Haru looked behind her; she would miss her home, but she couldn't abandon Baron. No, she couldn't do that, she loved him too much.

"Don't worry Haru; we will return one day. I promise," Baron whispered in her ear. Haru smiled and gently kissed him.

"Ritchie, wait up!" called a little red kitten.

"Come on Rachel, you're such a slow poke!" the orange one with brown eyes replied.

"Richard, you do not call your sister that," chastised Baron.

"Yes, Daddy," said the brown-eyed kitten. Rachel stuck her tongue out at him, her green eyes glowing.

"Daddy, Rachel's sticking her tongue out at me!" young Ritchie called.

"Ritchie, stop complaining," chastised Haru. "Rachel, stop teasing your brother." Baron smiled and rubbed Haru's bloated stomach. Haru smiled back and kissed him. Her refuge was found.

THE END

Yay! My first fanfic is done! Thank you to cteknight101, Archon Dragon, Bambi4ever, Wild Dragon's breath, and Yarningchick, especially Yarningchick for helping me out. Cake for everybody!
