Hello! As a fellow author, I hope you do not mind some friendly critique on your work (that is, if you are still continuing this, for it has been a year now).
Firstly, as chapters go, this is a very short one. May I suggest making it a tad bit longer? I have also noticed a real lack of description here, and most of the chapter is dialogue. This is okay, but without any description at all the reader will mostly likely get confused and put the story down. Perhaps you can try to describe things a little more; I, myself, have a hard time with this but try to give the reader a bit more insight of what is going on, how the characters are feeling, what the characters are doing. And speaking of description, you needn't tell us exactly how the character looks, or at least at the very beginning of the story. You did this on third paragraph of the chapter where you describe, for the most part, unnecessary details of how Yume looks. The pacing, needless to say, is a bit fast; one moment, the feline is trying to figure out where he is and who he is, the next he agrees to endure a journey with someone he hardly knows. More description will probably help smooth out the pacing. I am troubled with pacing, as well. ^^; There are also a few grammatical and spelling errors in this chapter that you may wish to look over.
The formatting, however, is just fine and readable, and is greatly improved from your previous posts. I like the fantasy feel to the story and the kemono style of it, though I must admit that having an entire world filled with nothing but cubs seems a bit implausible.
I wish you luck and much success to your next writings, and I hope you'll continue!

Well for one, the fact that he hardly knows Yume is the reason why he would follow her, she the only one who he met for the first time and he can see the expression and feeling of what her objective is, though thanks for the comment and it will be coming back once I'm done with some stuff.
