A/N: Wow, updated two days in a row. Well this is like Werewolves Dark Rising, but I basically changed everything about it. But, this is the new version, and I won't be updating on my other one. So enjoy.

Disclaimer: I don't own Bleach or any of the characters.

And Now the Hunt Begins

Keep running, just keep running. That was basically all that was going through my mind at the time, as I was rubber necking, looking back behind me as I ran forward deeper into the forest. I've read a lot of supernatural stories, and when I say a lot I really mean A LOT. And, like other girls I've dreamed about getting swept off my feet by a handsome vampire or werewolf, who just couldn't resist loving me, the innocent human.

And, I swear if I make it out of here alive I will never have that thought again. Well, at least not with a werewolf, but vampires are totally still acceptable. Hopefully if I ever meet one it won't be as bad as this meeting. In all the books I've read the guy who's the werewolf was a good guy and helped save the day. Unfortunately, not this one, he was definitely an enemy. Werewolves were now a complete enemy of the great Rukia Kuchiki.

Okay mind, get back on track. Focus. I know this forest because of all the times I got in trouble playing in it. The forest lay behind the Kuchiki estate, which I was living in as Byakuya's sister.

My older sister was married to Byakuya, and I have been living with them since their marriage. When my sister passed away five years ago I was afraid that Byakuya wasn't going to let me say. I didn't have anyone else but Byakuya. And, if he put me out of the house I wouldn't have had anywhere else to go. I'd be all alone again. It used to be just me and Hisana, and it was hard enough coping with the death of the last blood relation I had.

Byakuya didn't just let me stay. He adopted me as his sister. When he told me this it really shocked me; I didn't know what to think about the situation. At the time it was all so sudden. Later on I had the gut feeling that he couldn't even stand to look at me because of me resemblance towards Hisana. And, come to find out he only adopted me because Hisana told him to protect me. I believe Byakuya loved Hisana so much that he was willing to put up with me because Hisana loved me, and he wanted to fulfill Hisana's last wish.

But, now he probably won't have to worry about that because in a few hours I may be dead too. I give myself three to two hours tops to live. I truly don't think I'll live to see tomorrow. Things aren't looking so bright for me, but I'm hoping for the best.

The sun was starting to set, which means when night comes I won't know where I'm going. So, it would be a good idea to come up with a way out of this.

Further I get into the forest the more I have to doge the trees. The trees were closer together, and the trees themselves were becoming thicker and taller the more I ran into the forest.

I could hear them howling in the not so far distance. I felt like I was about to cry. I didn't want to die so soon. There were so many things that I still wanted to do.

I took a quick glance behind me to see if I could see them. And, luckily I couldn't find a single one of them in sight, but when I looked back there was a n eight foot cliff in front of me, stopping me in my tracks.

I just stood there looking at the ledge, realizing that there was no way that I was getting over it. I started to shake violently at not knowing what to do, but knowing the outcome of the events. I'm not ready to die, not yet.

I turned around quickly, and what I saw made me scream in horror.

Right in front of me, inches away from my face, was a monster wrapped in fur. He looked like a wolf, but its size made it look supernatural. Our faces were even with each other, his black eyes seeped into my violet eyes, showing hunger that shook me to the bones. Drool was dripping from his mouth as he showed me his yellow canines. I backed away from him slowly step by step. I stepped on leaves and twigs causing them to crunch beneath my feet. I imagined that's what my bones would sound like when he decided to finally kill me.

Then suddenly my back hit the wall. I rested my back on the wall, breathing violently in fear. I was going to die.

The Werewolf took a few steps back and launched itself at me. I moved just enough out of the way, causing him to get a good chunk out of the ledge. As he was taking his mouth out of the ledge that he just buried himself in I took off running as far as I could away from him.

I was running as fast as I could to get away, my arms flailing at my sides and my legs stretching as far as they could to cover the most ground. My attempts felt helpless.

I could hear him coming after me, bounding across the ground to come and find me.

I could see him coming out of my peripheral vision, so I side stepped to the side slamming myself against a tree. My body was completely worn out and hurt so bad that I just slumped down the tree. I couldn't force my body to stand back up. I just closed my eyes, waiting for the pain to course through my body. But, the pain never came.

I opened my eyes to find a man standing in front of me. I could only see his back, and even though he was wearing a grey coat I could tell he was strong. The Werewolf growled at the man, but the man stayed firm, not even flinching. The man then mad a slicing motion up wards with his hand, causing the creature in front on him to be cut in half. I covered my mouth with my hands and started to cry. There was blood everywhere.

After the Werewolf lay lifeless on the ground the man turned around and frowned at me. He was quite handsome, but there was also something about him that was very frightening.

"Thank you," I said shakily still crying.

He then crouched down next to me with his face inches from mine, one hand rested on the tree above my head and the other was touching the ground beside my body. He then asked in a husky tone, "Why thank me?"

"What?" He was starting to scare me.

He then brought his hand, which was resting on the ground, up to my face and lifted my chin up towards him. I noticed that he had amber eyes that seemed to pull you in. I opened my mouth to speak, but I couldn't force anything to come out. I just rested my face into his hand, giving up. "Maybe I just wanted to get you all to myself." At that moment the danger of his words seeped into my mind, letting me know that I still wasn't out of harms way.
