Up in Smoke
It was the typical evening in Greystone, the moon lit the skys and the boys and girls were in their slumber. During the night a certain rabbit was clinging in her bed, wrapped head to paw in warm sheets. Her dreams took place on a warm beach, wearing a cute little baby blue swimsuit, her back on the sand as even in her dreams eyes were on her. the blazing sun, lighting up the beach.
Daisy woke up to still see that blazing sun as she rubbed her eyes, it was early morning so the sun should not be up, it wasn't until her eyes focused that she realized what she was seeing was not the sun but a fire, burning down a few houses.
"Sweet Patatoes!" The bunny called out as the realization hit her, that was the Jackson House as it was engulffed in flames. with out even thinking the bunny sprinted downstairs, running down the street in her Tshirt and panties, as her paws ran along the road, seeing the flames getting closer.
The view was something, seeing a house go up like that. their were some other neighbors around. on the curb were Frederick and Leslie, sitting with blank looks on their faces, the cub wearing her pajamas and a her denim jacket, clenching what seemed like a piece of fabric in her paws.
"Frederick, what happened?" the Voice of Michael Robinson asked, Rosa Fields strangly by his side, truth is she was visiting the fox for midnight romance while the kids were sleeping. Most of the neighborhood was there as eventually a firetruck arrived to put out the fire, by than it was too late, the Jackson House burned to the ground.
"It's all gone, The home we built...it's gone" Frederick cried, the guy who promised after his wife's death he'd never cry again was sobbing as the last pieces of his wife's memory went up in smoke. Mr Jackson had a rumor of not being the best parent but they couldn't help but feel sorry for him, and the young Leslie who had lost her mother, than her house.
"Leslie, you Okay" Ayah asked, nudging her sholder as the hyena didn't answer or even ackowlage the Panda, she was quite in shock.
"She hasn't said a word" Travis informed her, out on nightly business and one of the first to the scene, how me managed to hide his 'Burning Tiger' Costume so quick, a skill as he was in boxers; most of them were in underwear so no one said anything.
"Daddy, what's gonna happen to Leslie" Claire asked in her nightgown to her father who just shrugged, saying he did not know, they weould probably have to move. The Kuno family approched Leslie, knowing the girls were close friends with Leslie, saying she could stay with them for the night, despite her lack of response Frederick gave permission, saying he'd sleep in his car, not want to bother.
Eventually Leslie went back with the Kunos who took her into the house, she had been their many times before as Mrs. Kuno suggested she take a bath to freshen her mind. She probably also wanted the Hyena to wash the smoke off, looking at the fabric in Leslie's eyes, gently tugging on it as she pulled it from Leslie's hands, seeing to snapping her out of her trance.
"Give it Back" The Hyena demanded as she did so, causing leslie to get quiet again, but she was out of her trance as she stumbled to the bathroom, closing the door behind her. The Hyena made her way to the tub, filling it up as she undressed, steeping in, laying in the hot water before breaking down.
"Mommy" The Hyena sobbed, breaking into tears, something that wouldve suprised anyone who'd seen it. Leslie had a reputation as a stone cold bully and tough girl, even once taking a punch from a Highschool kid smiling, now she was craddling herself in the tub, the pictures, the videos and memories along with her belongs gone.
"Hey Leslie, you doing alright" a voice said from the hall as the door peeked open revealing Ayah who was looking at the sight, wearing her nightgown. she really hated seeing Leslie like this and wanted to do whatever she could to cheer her up.
"I'm fine" The Yeen replied trying to hide the fact of her sobbing as the panda rubbed her eyes, knowing she was not.
"Leslie, I'm your girlfriend, you can be honest with me" Ayah comforted the Hyena who wasnt in the mood to talk. Ayah sighed, offering to get in the tub with her, asking some one on one time would take her mind of it.
"Im not in the mood for sex" Leslie answered as Ayah took the hint, dropping seductve tone. wondering if it was the wrong, Leslie requested the Panda leave her alone which Ayah respected, turning to leave.
"Out of curiousity what is this fabric" Ayah asked looking at the fabric in Leslie's Hands as the Hyena sobbed. Ayah took her cue and left the Hyena. 
After the bath Leslie, changed into a bathrobe provided by the Kuno Family, getting dressed and heading into the hallway. Having visted the Kuno house before she knew where to go as the Hyena made her way to the Guest room, Falling on the bed.
Things seemed better by morning as Leslie was out of her trance, still a bit depressed but she was talking. one the patio the three girls were eating, picking the food in their bowls with chopsticks.
"So what was that about, last night" Sakura asked, making a comment of Leslie's state which the Hyena defended as being in shock as Ayah again asked her what the fabric was and why it was so important to Leslie as the Hyena didn't mind telling them. she pulled the fabric from the pocket, opening it, revealing a wrestling mask.
"It's a luchdor mask, it belonged to my Mother, Maria also known as as 'La Travisca'. she was a popular wrestler in mexico" Leslie explained, saying now it was the only thing that remained of hers.
"Oh yeah, she's not around isn't she" Sakura asked, never having known about her mother but known Mr. Jackson was single as the Hyena nodded. telling them stories about her mother who she idolized. apparently after moving to Greystone with her dad. she died when Leslie was still a toddler but she always watched the old tapes of her matches as continued to be inspired by her. despite not remembering her personally she had this image of her mother as a tough woman who was feared and respected in the ring.
"Is this her" Sakura asked, messing with her phone pulling up an image of a hyena woman wearing green spandex and the same mask the Leslie was holding as she nodded. eventually Frederick came by later in the day  to check on his daughter.
"Oh she's been no trouble at all Frederick" Mr. Kuno said saying that the girls seemed to welcome Leslie, and she was staying in the guest room which caused Mr. Jackson relief.
"That's good, Look I was on the phone with my brother as he said, he'd give us his old camper to stay in, but it'll take him a few days to drive to Greystone, you wouldn't mind looking over her for a few days would you?" Frederick asked they nodded, saying Leslie was welcome at their house. 
Frederick realized that night he was not the best father, in fact he was negelectful of that, and it almost took losing Leslie to make him realize that. The truth was He was the one who got Leslie out of the house.
When Frederick spotted the fire he yelled upstairs to Leslie, ordering her to get down, after she did not come the stairs he feared the worst, climbing up to her room, and opening the door. the fire caused her to pass out, she was clutching her mothers mask in her hand as he scooped her up and carried her out. It sounded weird but the biggest though on his mind was getting Leslie out of that house.
"Hey Leslie, how about I take you out for some Ice Cream" Frederick called back to the table getting Leslie's attention. he had never bought her Ice Cream ever, as she was somewhat suspicious, asking why.
Frederick decided he would do his best to be a good father to make it up to Leslie for the years of neglect.
"Truth is I Havent been much of a father to you, after Maria, I just closed myself off from everyone, but almost losing you made me realize I should be better to you, you're all I have left" He admitted. it was weird but for the first time that Leslie could remember they went out for Ice Cream.
