"Chazy Chaz turned me into a fishy. ...I WANNA DO IT AGAIN!"
Koopa was dancing in front of their home, happily leaping around thier guest, Zapook.
"Hehehe, I'd be happy to help out an old friend!" Zapook said before joining Koopa in their little dance. Tina watched them both with an uneasy look before getting up off of the front step of the house.
"Um...excuse me? Zee?"
Both Zapook and Koopa turn toward Tina with wide smiles on thier faces. "Yes?"
Confused, slightly, Tina looked back and forth between the two, then shyly said, "I'll...take me leave and head back to the tree...", and with that, retreated down the hill.
"See ya Tina! Aight Zapook, I'm ready. How long is this gonna take, and when are you gonna sta-"
"LET THE OPERATION BEGIN!!" Zapook interupt and dragged Koopa down her own cellar door on the east side of the home.
"OPERATION!? WAIT!!"

Several hours later, Koopa had met up with Chazu, showing off bright round, green fish eyes and cat fish wiskers. After chatting for awhile, they both headed towards Tina's tree so Chazu could ask her a few questions. Koopa was too busy gnawing on Chazu's head to know or even care about what was going on.
In the midst of thier gathering, Chazu turns Tina into a merneko and takes them both to the nearest lake. He some how got the reluctant Tina to enter the water, and was able to show them both an underwater garden, which was also the very place Chazu's dear friend, Mystrial had dissappeared from.
The two nekos tried to place the sent of chazu's missing friend, but Tina was the successful one out of the two. All three of them ended up inside of an under water cave. Tina was able to find a hidden door, then was teleported home by Chazu, leaving only him and Koopa to explore the cavern.
They split up to search the passageways, Chazu holding his keyblades, and Koopa wielding her black battle axe, to look for Chazu's friend.
Koopa was dragging her axe behind her, starting at her feet and mumbling to herself.
'Hmph...usless...usless sack of fur...I can't do anythin to actually help anyone...I can't even follow a freakin sent...Oooo! My name is Tina and I'm so cute and polite and perfect! I can track scents underwater and be as sweet as can be! But don't even have the guts to eat one lousy steak! I'll show them...'
Sounds of soft foot prints echoed through the cavern. Koopa took up her battle axe and looked around cautiously. "Who's there?"
Her ears moved in all directions, trying to pick up any sound she could, "Look, I know someone's there. I'm only here to find someone. As soon as I do, I can leave this dump."
Strange creatures crept from the shadows into the the little light the cave's crystals gave off. They were dog like people and were larger then she had expected.
"So these are the Dylo-things he was talkin about."
She started to ask questions but they didn't seem like they wanted to talk much, and attacked before she could get a second statement out. She dodged them for awhile, still trying to speak with them, but eventually lost patience and slaughtered them and every other creature she found. Koopa wandered around, fighting off everything that attacked her, until she entered the main hall. There she took a rest, planning on how she was gonna find Chazu only for him to show up not too long after she sat down. She saw him shake his head sadly, and she knew that ment Mystrial wasn't there. Seconds later, she was back on the front step of her home.
Tired and covered with those creatures' blood, as well as her own, she layed back in that very spot and drifted to sleep.
