NOVEL NEXT 6. Stats, Statuses, Trauma, and Cleaning
The two lay together peacefully, stroking each other’s fur, until Bonny’s stomach started growling. She sighed. How long had it been since she’d eaten? Not since she appeared, except some of the medicinal herbs. Maybe at the club, before leaving? She couldn’t quite remember anything before leaving.
“Miu, do you have anything to eat?”
“I am hunter, nya. Let me up.”
Bonny kissed her, then rolled off, trailing her hand across Miu’s breasts as she did. “What would I do without you? I don’t know where I am, what I’m doing, or how to get food.” She watched as Miu stood and started pulling on her leathers.
Miu's armor was dyed black, the same color that dominated her coat. The pants were snug and Miu wriggled her hips teasingly as she pulled them up. The tunic had ties across the front that pulled her breasts in and showed some cleavage, but it was mostly hidden in the fur that covered her chest.
Bonny looked at the bag that had her dildo and Mui’s possessions. “Do you have any other clothes?”
“No, nya. Want leather?” Miu motioned to what she was wearing.
Bonny looked her over, appreciatively. “Well, it looks pretty good on you.” She smiled and winked.
“Bunnies always in heat, nya. Will find food. You check status, talk later.” She shook her head, then turned and walked into the woods, vanishing into the underbrush in moments.
Bonny lay back and thought about her health, stats, and skills. The same weird holographic-like window opened up with information.

Bonny noticed there was a little more info. And her class options had increased. Why? Because of her actions?
“Oh!” She blushed, realizing what had changed and what the extra classes might include. She thought about the Class section expanding and it did.

“Weird.” She poked at the window, but nothing changed. “Ecdys-whatever, that must mean stripper. How does it know what I did before … before, I died?”
Tears suddenly streamed down her face as the weight of last nights events slammed into her. The club, the car, Matt screaming, the pain, the darkness. Then mud and goblins and running … and Miu. Wait, did she kill someone? Even if it was a monster attacking her, did she KILL someone?
Bonny took a deep shuddering breath, wiped the tears away, and though about Miu. Just Miu! Miu was safe and comforting and protected her.
“Ok, the classes and status can wait. Trauma and whatever happened, can wait!” She looked around at the campsite. There was just a small burnt out fire, the shirt hanging nearby, a pile of soft grasses and leaves, slightly scattered, and the bag with a few items scattered around it. She focused on the bag and walked over to pick it up.
She shook the bag out and went through the items. A comb, some cloth wrapped in a bundle, twine rolled into a ball, a few coins, a small knife, a rock, a cracked amulet, and her dildo. The rock must be flint, why else would Miu carry it? Unless she had magic? Bonny hadn’t seen any magic so far and her status showed she had none. Miu hadn’t mentioned it either.
She picked up the dildo. It had dirt and mud on it, some of which had rubbed off onto the other items in the bag. She could clean everything. She should clean everything.
After carrying everything over to the water, she climbed in and started rinsing it all and setting it on rocks to dry. The bag and dildo were left for last. As she carried the bag over to hang it near the shirt, she realized she had never put the shirt on.
She looked down at her new body. The fur kept her warm, for the most part, except for her nipples and vulva. What kind of evolution left those areas bare? The areolas and exposed skin around her pussy were pink, moreso than it used to be. Pulling some of her fur back, she could see the skin under the fur matched it’s color, so brown and white. Her hands and feet seemed to be tanned, similar to her old body.
Miu’s bare areas were a dark brown, almost black. Not as dark as her coat, but close. Bonny suddenly had a desire to see more anthropomorphic girls and examine them as well. A goal for the future? If she took one of the new classes, she would probably have plenty of opportunities. A thought for another time.
Her hands seemed normal, but she recalled Miu’s hands being small and mistaking them for paws earlier. She would have to get a closer look when Miu returned. Bonny looked down at her feet, they were longer than they used to be, with a bigger pad on the balls of her feet. Her toes were long and padded as well. She stood up on the balls of her feet and realized it felt natural. Her ankle didn’t straighten all the way, but angled back, like a rabbit’s hock.
An overwhelming feeling swept over her and Bonny turned back to the pool under the waterfall. Don’t think about it, everything is normal. Just clean the dildo and move on. Of course, with how she was feeling, it may get some use sooner rather than later. As a distraction, if nothing else.
She picked it up and started scrubbing the dirt and grime, not thinking about hitting a goblin with it. Scrubbing and stroking and cleaning.
She almost dropped the dildo when it suddenly grew hot and started twitching in her hands.
