The Wolf With Emerald Eyes
"Cagalli! Cagalli! Mou where the heck did my sis went this time?" complained a young man with brunette hair.
The young man in an age of seventeen with brunette hair and deep purple eyes, called Kira Yamato was in the middle of the huge forest searching for his sister. Kira has been sweating a lot and has been in the place for over an hour yet he didn't give up. Then again he was not alone as he has a girl who was the same age as him with long pink hair next to him was called Lacus Clyne.
"Kira you shouldn't work yourself. Cagalli can take care of herself." Lacus told him with kind voice.
"That what concern me most, Lacus. What if she fell down from a cliff or caught by grizzly bears?" replied the brunette haired lad. "Oh God! What I'm gonna tell them?"
"KIRA STOP WORRYING!" exclaimed the long pink haired goddess.
Too late Kira began panicking and shouting at the same time still worrying of the consequences of his sister when he's not there to protect her. As for Lacus she was trying her best to calm him down although the brunette haired lad wasn't listening to her as he keep on wailing like a dog.
Away from the two searchers somewhere within the forest, a young seventeen-year-old girl with short blonde hair and pair d of golden orbs was walking in the deep place. Small tame living creatures were following with this girl. She was called Cagalli Yula Athha an extreme adventurer and loves to seek wild creatures. She stopped and drank water from her jug.
"Man… I'm bushed out again. Looks like I've traveled far this time." She thought.
Cagalli looks around her surrounding searching for some animals although none appear for her. She sighs in depress and cries silent. As she looks up she saw a white wolf was standing few inches away from her.
"It's that wolf! It got to be it!" Cagalli exclaimed excitedly but when it comes closer to her she became sad when she looks at the wolf's eye. "No… the wolf's eyes are different."
"Hey there I've brought your favorite snack again." She told the white wolf. "Sorry if it's small. That's all I could get."
The white wolf looked at the blonde haired girl curiously then places its paw to her knees as it was trying to tell her that it doesn't mind. Cagalli smiles to it and out a roll of plastic from her bag and unwraps revealing a dead body chicken. The wolf sniffs at it then uses its jaws to receive and eats it. The blonde haired girl just watch at the wild creature then she takes out a sketchbook and draws it.
"It's been seven years I still haven't see it. I wonder if that wolf could recognizes me?" Cagalli thought sadly.
"…lli… Cagalli!" Kira's voice shouted. "We've finally found you!"
The blonde haired startle when she heard Kira's voice and her face turns pale as white as a clean sheet of paper. She turned to the direction where the voice came from then she saw Kira and Lacus were coming to her direction. Cagalli sees the brunette haired lad was sparkling excited to see her although for the blonde haired girl she doesn't look happy instead she looks so terrified. As the two were nearing her, Kira's expression suddenly changed into scary one.
"CAGALLI YOU SHOULD KNOW HOW WORY SICK I WAS FOR YOU! YOU SHOULDN'T DO THAT!" Kira shouted at her,
"KKYYAAHH! You're scaring me!" Cagalli screamed scaredly.
"Kira stop it this instantly you're scaring your twin sister." Lacus pleaded.
Okay this is probably weird as people say. Normally twins should be together since birth but to Kira and Cagalli's cases are different. Not just they were switch from birth or anything. You see Kira and Cagalli's real parents died from a tragic plane accident when they were on their way to USA for a research job when they were little. Since they have no other relatives to care for them, they were sent to the orphanage until Uzumi Nara Athha adopted Cagalli while Kira was in the Yamatos. They were separated for long time still they haven't forget each other as they always get in touch until they met again when they were thirteen at the time when Cagalli's adoptive father opened his nature research in ORB.
Uzumi Nara Athha is the head of ORB town and he owns two companies one is the Astray CO in the city and the other one is a nature house in the mountains with huge forest, the place where Cagalli and Kira were living right now also Lacus, who turns out her parents was a friend of Cagalli's adoptive father. He loves the nature and has been studying the wild creatures' behaviors and habitats that's how the tomboy got it from him.
"No way Kira! I'm not going back until I says so!" shouted the blonde haired girl. "Beside you're not the boss of me."
"Still going out alone is much dangerous that's why a group is better." Kira explained to his twin sister. "I don't want my sister to die so please."
"Geh! Fine! Have it your way but don't try mess with me!" she hissed at him as she walks way.
Lacus watched at the blonde haired girl's expression noticing that Cagalli was really determined on finding 'it'. Although what she didn't understand what important for her on finding it also it may be impossible to find a small thing in this huge forest.
"Kira what was Cagalli looking for again?" Lacus asked him curiously.
"Well… this has been an issue due for her walking alone in this forest. She was looking for a wolf." He replied.
"A wolf but there is a lot of wolves around here yet she even made friends with them too." She pointed out.
Kira sighs softly at his female friend as she blinks her eyes innocently. True that there are many wolves were lurking in any mountainous forests that you could find. Also wolves are considered the most vicious and cold animal that could eat any living thing like cute bunnies although in Uzumi's place all wild dogs were attached and friend to his twin sister. Cagalli has been brave to these wolves and been considered as a friends not just that she could also understands their feelings. It surprise to everyone even to Uzumi seeing his daughter befriend to them of course Lacus knew too since she was living with them.
"Wanna hear the story, Lacus? I bet you'll find it interesting." He said.
-Kira's story
Uzumi was camping out with few men in the forest. He has a notebook as he writes down to his observations of the animals' behaviors. Of course behind him was little Cagalli in age of ten playing a white and black rabbit. The little blonde haired girl continues playing it until it hops away.
"Daddy Cagalli wanna to hop with da bunny." Little Cagalli pleaded her father.
"Sure thing, just be careful, alright." Uzumi told her while he was still observing the animal.
Little Cagalli flash out a cute smile while looking at her father, then she started to walk away from Uzumi excitedly as she follows the cute rabbit. The cute creature continues to hop away the young blonde haired girl yet she still tries to follow it. The young girl stubbornly wish the rabbit could stop although it didn't stay put. Just as she took one step forward suddenly she lost her balance she extends her hand to reach out something to garb although her hand was short and she was unable to reach it.
"Noooo! Daaadddyyy hheeeelllppp mmmeeee!" screamed the young blonde haired girl with tears in her eyes.
Away from the little blonde haired girl, Uzumi heard his daughter's cries, which shocks and fear him most. He stopped his observations as he threw his book away and ran fast while he was following his daughter's scream. By the time he arrives the place where Cagalli was last stood there. He searches Cagalli hoping that nothing bad happens to her then he spotted a shoe that belongs to his adoptive daughter. He looks around and saw the deep cliff.
"Oh God please don't take Cagalli away. She's too young to die." Uzumi wished. "Hang on my daughter I'll find you."
The little blonde haired girl lies within the soft yet wet ground, she was still alive for some lucky reason. Cagalli could still breathing but she was unconscious after for the great fall from the cliff. She was having a worst nightmare as she saw herself falling into a never-ending darkness. She tried to call out for help or her father but her voice seems to block off.
Later on, Cagalli finally wakes up and found herself lying on a wet and cold ground. She tries to get up then she yelped in pain. The pain comes from her knee, it has deep wound probably she got it from a nig blow when she fell down. She wanted to cry loud but she saw a wild creature was approaching her. A wolf… a young adult wolf heads it way to her, which scares Cagalli as she was afraid it may attack her. She shuts her eyes tightly not wanting to see what happen although nothing happens as she felt something wet from her wounded knee. She opens her eyes and saw the wolf was licking her wound.
"Mister wolf… why ya halp Cagalli?" asked the little girl.
The mysterious wolf didn't reply to the young blonde haired girl's question but it continues to lick her wound then it ran away. Little Cagalli felt sad seeing the wild dog away minutes alter it came back carrying a large leaf on its jaws then places it over her wound. It looked at the little girl then it places its paw over the leaf. Cagalli looks at the wolf's eyes. Emerald-green eyes were caught to her attention of the wild dogs yet she has never seen anything like that. But all she remember seeing wolves with yellow or blue eyes. She finds it hard to believe seeing the kind of color yet it wasn't a dream. The young blonde haired girl tries to pat the emerald-green eyed wolf's head until...
"CAGALLI! PLEASE ANSWER MY CALL!" Uzumi's voice called her. "CAGALLI! CAGALLI!"
"It's father! He came for Cagalli! Father Cagalli is here!" young Cagalli return his call.
After young Cagalli replied to her father's call, Uzumi soon arrives and saw his daughter sitting on the ground with a large leaf over her knee. Then he hugged her tightly as he thought he had lost her. Young Cagalli turn her attention back to her wolf savior but to her disappointment, the emerald-green eyed wolf disappeared from her sight. But to her heart she felt that this is not the last time she'll be seeing it.
-End of Kira's Story
"That's why she was totally obsessed to the emerald-green eyed wolf." Kira ended his story. "Although there is no such thing that kind of eyes color. I mean it sounds ridiculous."
"It may sounds weird for you since you haven't seen it yourself yet." Lacus pointed out. "But if Cagalli really saw it then it's not an illusion."
"That sounds harsh." He said.
"Anyway we should be following Cagalli or we'll lose sight of her again." She reminded him.
Kira jolted due to the pink haired goddess's reminder as he turns around to see his twin sister although she was already gone. The brunette haired lad was about to wail again for such an idiot, Lacus tries her best to calm him down the usual way. While the two were trying to find Cagalli again, the blonde haired girl continues on searching for her wolf savior. Cagalli imitate the wolf's howling on calling its comrade. She waited for it to arrive but nothing came out.
"I know that wolf is here somewhere in this forest. I'm not going to give up so easily!" exclaimed the blonde haired girl.
Cagalli continue walking her way further to her search, she suddenly stopped as she felt danger presence was lurking somewhere within her surrounding, she stood from her spot unwilling to move until a huge grizzly bear appears in front of her. Its paw aims for the blonde haired girl's direction to attack luckily she evades the wild creature's attack just in time. But then again another grizzly bear came out behind her it was too late for her to evade.
The wolf befriended shuts her eyes ready to face her death then he heard a wolf's howl coming from her left direction. She opens her golden orbs and saw a wolf attacked the grizzly bears with its strong fangs and claws. The fierce fight between wild creatures continues until the wolf won causing the two bears ran away. Cagalli stares at her wolf savior then she felt a strange feeling towards that wild dog. She felt the thing when the emerald-green eyed wolf saved her eight years ago. The wolf turn its gaze to her, to her surprise the wolf's eyes were emerald-green. They are the same ones she saw.
"It's you again… My savior eight years ago and today…" Cagalli muttered. "I've been looking for you to say thanks for saving me."
As Cagalli was saying her thanks to her one and only wolf savior, the emerald green eyed wolf just stares at her as it was observing to the blonde haired girl's appearance. Then its ears perked up as it heard some footsteps were coming to this direction. With it, the wolf started to run from the opposite direction but before it leaves it took another glance at Cagalli then it ran fast. After the mysterious emerald-green eyed wolf left, Kira and Lacus appeared again to the wolf lover girl. The brunette haired lad starts to lecture his twin sister although she wasn't listening as she was busily looking at the spot whee the wolf disappeared.
"Why did you left again?" she wondered.
In the deep wood, the mysterious wolf continues running fast. It even pasts by the group of rabbits and other wolves but it doesn't give any attention. Until when it reaches at the top cliff, the wild dog looks around of its surrounding then Cagalli's image appears in its mind unexpectedly. Then it howls loudly.
This is probably the beginning of the wolf's existence.
Pack One End
Kairi: So what do you think of this one? I was inspired to IGYU's Hope and my fave anime Wolf's Rain plus I made some sketches of wolves years ago. Wolves are considered my most favorite wild animals in my whole life. Then when I read IGYU's story I started to sketch Athrun with some wolf appearance. It was really fun making one then an idea struck my head when I was still in the middle of my first AsuCag fic. Of course I won't make the same plot to hers...
Once more I make little Cagalli with misspelling. I just love it and it makes her cute. Anyway don't forget to review.
