Mugged!

"I will finish bathing today and return soon. You should go now if you don't want to be stuck in the forest late at night," Katarang said.

Yang Zhang nodded, "I think so too. I will leave now. See you later, Katarang!" Yang Zhang got up and called his pets, "Guys, let's go home!"

"Pii! Pii!"

"Squeak!"

"Chirp!"

"Viii!"

Everyone gathered around Yang Zhang and sat on their designated spot; Little Ivy gripped Yang Zhang's arm while Chesnut hid inside Yang Zhang's pocket. Poddie was hiding inside the tote bag, and Lt. Spicy Wing was perching on top of Yang Zhang's head.

Katarang saw this, and she had a small chuckle.

"Eh? Why are you laughing? What's so funny?" Yang Zhang asked.

"Nothing," Katarang replied with a smile. "I'm just thinking that your pets must've loved you so much."

"Mm, okay then, I will leave now. I shall visit often!"

"Sure, you're welcomed here," Katarang said. "Now go. I also need to dry up and return to my hut."
