Miles had just got done with his display for the Mister Zodiac Competition when he bumped into someone he didn't expect to see.
"Eloise?!" gasped Miles, "What are you doing here?"
"I'm in the Miss Zodiac Pageant." answered Eloise, simply, "I'd thought you'd want to know that Miss Juliet gave us all a holiday so they could support me, including the boys."
"What boys?" asked Miles, more stunned that Eloise was here than the fact that Miss Juliet's school had been opened up for boys as well as girls.
"They're in this section," answered Eloise, writing a few notes down on a piece of paper. "Also, while there is a bull and a horse there, they're not the only species the boys became." Then she turned to leave because she had to get ready for her showing.

Meanwhile, a really unusual donation appeared at Horizon Offices.
"How did both a male and female kangaroo end up with muscles that large?" asked one scientist as a pair of kangaroos were led to conversion rooms. What made the male, at least, unusual was the size of his arms, which, after testing, showed that they weren't bulky with fat but with muscle.
"According to O'Reiley," said the scientist, still reading the lab work done on them, "they both have hypertrophic muscles, similar to what Cammy has."
"So, their extra muscles are taking a toll on their hearts?" asked the first scientist, having been familiar with Cammy when she first showed up.
"Pretty much that, yeah." confirmed the second.

Meanwhile, Yumigami, the Divine Councilor who was presiding over the Year of the Rabbit Competition, and one of the few uplifted Divine Councilors, was talking with Ami over Zoom about the new island colony for Asian Animalians.
"So, the reason why this island basically dropped off the map was because of superstition after a Japanese warlord declared it off-limits because of the resources there?" Yumigami asked, still not getting it.
"That's... pretty much it." confirmed Ami, shaking her head at the way people thought in the past. After her ears twitched a few times, Ami continued, "We're coming up on the island in a moment, so I got to get ready."
"I've got to go as well." Yumigami replied, before closing out, "The Miss Zodiac Competition is starting soon."
