The boar started to charge towards her at full speed, using his tusks in front of him to make a definite impact on her. Although for Isinia, she saw his plan a long time before he even thought of it and knew exactly what to do. In a similar fashion what she did earlier, she jumped into the air and used one side of the air conditioner to launch herself out of the way just two seconds before the boar's impact, landing near the edge of the roof. She watched the dumb boar hit the unit so hard it was very much dented, watching him somewhat in a daze until he suddenly trips against the edge of the roof, falling down below, although fortunately for him he lands right in the dumpster.
She watched him fall all the way down but didn't get to see the landing as she folded her ears the moment she heard footsteps approaching towards her and fast. Once again she leaped into the air just in time to avoid from being caught by the wolf that thought was going to catch her off guard, proceeding to join the boar down below. It wasn't over just yet as she quickly ran out from behind the units to find the rabbit and fox waiting for her. "You're gonna get it now," the rabbit said as he started to crack his knuckles. Isinia didn't stop running as she headed for right in between them, but stopped the very moment she saw both of them heading towards the center to get her, watching them with a smile as they hit each by accident, trying to get her.
This gave her an opportunity to escape to which she did take advantage of but apparently she wasn't alone as she was instantly chased by the fox. Meanwhile the rabbit tried recovering from the hand that punched him in the face but was left in a daze. Isinia ducked the moment the fox was about to get her, doing a sweep of the leg to trip him but it wasn't only a simple trip as it caused him to go over the railing of the staircase. The fox growled towards her as he was hanged onto the bar of the rail, spitting what sounded some explicit babbling words out to her that she didn't even understand and didn't even care.
Proceeding to head downwards she could hear fox yelling out one more thing to her, "I swear I'll rip your fucking little head once I get my hands on you!" Pretending not to have heard anything, she continued on down the staircase at a steady pace, wanting to disappear from the scene before anyone would notice her or before they would recover. As she walked by she noticed the boar and the wolf on top of each other in the dumpster, either fainted from the fall or knocked out from hitting the trash so hard. They were only lucky the dumpster was there, otherwise it would've been a one way ticket to a dead end.
Isinia finally had arrived at home and placed the pound of beef in the kitchen where she found her grandparents waiting for her. "Isinia do you know what you have done," her grandmother said in a serious tone. Isinia was about to say something but for some reason or another, she stayed quiet knowing she's most likely in trouble, having forgot that her grandparents are able to sense what she had been doing. She knew what she did but she didn't know how to explain to them that she wanted to help the otter in distress. Her grandfather stood and kneeled in front of her, placing both hands on her shoulder, "Isinia please listen very carefully. When you helped a person in need, did you feel compelled to answer it?" Isinia didn't know what to say, at first not understanding what he meant, "I... I don't understand."
Her grandfather retreated back to sitting on his chair, preparing to explain while her grandmother stood by, but before he could say anything she blurted out, "Am I in trouble?" He immediately raised his head and said, "No! No of course not but... Listen Isinia, the moment you heard that person in distress, did you feel the need to help her?" Isinia nodded slowly in response to his question.
"Isinia, now that you know that feeling, you'll have to learn to ignore it for now as best you can."
"But... Isn't helping a good thing?"
"It is Isinia, but you can't go out there in your young age to try to do good deeds like that just yet."
"Isinia please understand that it's not because we don't want you to go out there but because you're very important to us and we don't want to lose you," said her grandmother.
"I'm sorry... I won't do it again," she said as she lowered her head.
"I'm afraid you won't be able to go outside for a month Isinia. For your own safety, we need to let not only those bikers from remembering you, but also anyone else who may have seen you forget about it. At least we only hope they will forget because we don't want any of them knowing who you really are. Go upstairs Isinia..."
Isinia headed upstairs with a sick feeling to her stomach. She knew she wasn't in trouble for anything but it still felt like as if she was being grounded for something she did. She kept thinking if people knew that she did good things, they wouldn't say anything about her like Mr. Wulffrith, the toy maker. Unfortunately because of her young age, she didn't understand the fact that not all people think as such, much less about good deeds like those bikers. Isinia headed back into her bedroom, closing the door afterwards as she headed towards the window to look outside.
A tear ran down her face knowing she won't be able to go outside for an entire month or possibly longer just to make sure the people have forgotten about her. After a few minutes of staring at the outside world, she went to bed. Her mind continued to question in regards to why people would try to do bad things to her even though they didn't know her.
Her grandmother took the pound of beef that Isinia had set on the table before she left and placed it in the fridge while saying, "Do you think we were hard on her to keep her locked up for a month?" Isinia's grandfather sighed for a moment before answering, "It may seem harsh but it's for her own safety. There is a good chance that people will forget about her if they don't see her. Isinia cannot be doing these things if it threatens her existence besides our own." Her grandmother gave a sigh, "I just hope Isinia will understand sooner or later why we're doing this."
