Chapter 1: Some new friends

Prologue

The ground was splattered with the blood of her clan. Her brother had fled hours ago but Ry was still at the village which was slowly being destroyed by a huge fire. Ry was eight and was crying heavily, her pup form was small and fragile and being so small, nobody heard a wolfs pups howl of despair.

Then hazy figures appeared humans!

They kicked the pup and tortured it and squeezed it.

"No!!" yelled Ry in the present day, awaking from her nightmare.

Her mind was confused and distracted. That event hidden happened in seven years.

Chapter 1: Some new friends

Ry's long brown hair hung damp around her face as she rubbed her human green eyes. She wore a black t-shirt without any sleeves. On her shoulder was a black paw print. Ry also wore sky blue jeans with black shoes.

Ry had a few freckles on her cheek and Ry realized that it was raining. Then a scent came to Ry's nose. "Nargo!" growled Ry and she immediately started running towards a city with a huge green dome around it. Humans are so defenseless.

Nargo was Ry's older brother and was a few years older then her. He had destroyed Ry's clan and is now trying to kill Ry. Ry was currently fifteen and she hated her life.

Ry entered the city as rain started to fall on the humans. They all ran towards there homes or any shelter they could find.

Ry however continued to walk, loving the rain as it fell on her face and making her hair even more damp. Ry couldn't even remember the nightmare.

Then out of nowhere, a huge black creature attacked Ry as she passed a huge tree. Ry's first thought was that it was Nargo, but no, this creature was just a dog.

"You must hate my kind! Do you mind taking your revenge out on my older brother?" asked Ry hopefully.

The dog attacked. Ry ran before the dog had an owner after her.

Ry hurriedly ran towards a junkyard and found a car that was comfortable. Ry slowly went back to sleep.

The Next Morning

Ry awoke the next morning to a machine running loudly and she quickly left the junkyard before anyone could notice her.

Ry passed an alleyway when a midnight black creature appeared.

This was Nargo and he wasn't happy. He was dripping from last night's rain.

"Ok Ry! Now you are going to die! Here and now!" growled Nargo angrily.

"Your going to have to make a different wish!" replied Ry curtly as she jumped over Nargo as she started running.

Ry ran through alleyway after alleyway but Ry couldn't get Nargo off her tail.

Ry surprisingly ran past a huge tree where a large gang of men were gathered. Some men whistled as she passed and Ry thought she saw a white wolf and a grey wolf amongst the men.

"Must have been my imagination." Thought Ry but then she was brought back to the real world when Nargo had caught her and had tried to bite off her ankle.

Ry howled in pain as Nargo went through the skin.

Nargo held on and blood was everywhere and Ry hated it when her precious wolf blood was spread everywhere.

Then a brown blur attacked Nargo and with a quick glance Nargo ran off, probably going to get some whisky or worse…vodka.

Ry wiped the sweat off her forehead as the stranger appeared in front of her and offered a hand to help her up.

"Thanks!" said Ry gratefully as she took the hand and stood on her right leg supporting her left.

"No problem! Who was that guy?" asked the boy looking at Ry in an excited, confused sort of way.

He had light brown hair and it was shaped at an angle and he also had red like eyes. He wore a cool yellow like hoodie with sleeves attached and jeans. The unusual part was that he wore a black like metal collar around his neck.

"An old friend." Growled Ry back as she held on too his shoulder.

"My names Hiega!" said Hiega a slight grin on his face.

"Rose…but everybody calls me Ry!" replied Ry still content with examining her wound.

"Oh, so…who was your friend?"

"What are you doing over at this side of this city?" asked Ry, changing the subject.

"Following another wolf scent. It's very unique. Want to come with me?" asked Hiega as Ry tried to put weight on her ankle.

She couldn't.

"Sure! Anything fun to do." Said Ry giving Hiega a warm smile.

Hiega gave her another smile and helped her walk as he followed the scent.

Ry couldn't go fast so she suggested that Hiega leave her at some shelter and return to following the scent.

"Are you sure, Ry?" asked Hiega as he walked Ry into a bomb shelter.

"Yeah, its ok. If you ever want to see me just follow my scent." Replied Ry smiling.

"Wow! A girl saying I can follow her scent you know. Your scent is very unique Ry." Said Hiega with a goofy smile.

"Your head must be turned upside down. What do I smell like?" asked Ry humoring him.

"Roses!" said Hiega happily.

Ry was speechless. Was that her scent? She never did asked her father, well he was to busy hanging out with Nargo.

After Hiega promised to come back after he figured out the unique scent he closed the door of the bomb shelter and ran off.

Ry found some bandages in a first aid kit and started wrapping up her ankle so she wouldn't lose any more blood.

"Nargo is such a …Jerk!!" mumbled Ry angrily as she punched the pillow on a bed into shape.

She lay on the pillow with her thoughts buzzing through her head. Then she smiled, a boy has never said she smelled good before.

Ry was smiling as she fell asleep.

Later that evening

"I don't want to die!" whimpered Ry as she slept.

"Ry…are you ok?"

"Don't be dead please don't be dead!"

"Ry! Wake up!"

Ry's human green eyes opened quickly and she saw Hiega looming over her.

Ry was so taken it back that she almost fell out of the bed.

"Hiega, don't do that. In future just poke me or something." Said Ry breathing hard.

"I did poke you." Said Hiega smiling.

"Who's Nargo?" asked a voice.

Ry looked up.

There near the door was a boy with dark, short, brown hair with dark blue eyes. He was wearing a jacket with a white t-shirt with jeans.

"Nobody….just someone." Replied Ry softly.

"Kiba this is Ry. Ry this is Kiba." Said Hiega introducing them. Ry laid out her hand and Kiba shook it. His hand was soft and smooth.

"Well, what time is it?" asked Ry as she picked up her shoes.

"Almost morning." Said Hiega surprised as Ry placed her shoes on over her bandage ankle.

"I've got to go. It was nice meeting you guys." Said Ry nodding her head to the boys and was about to walk out the door.

"Wait Ry! Kiba asked me to go somewhere with him and I wanted to know if you wanted to come!" said Hiega blushing.

"Where?" Ry said confused.

"Paradise!" said Kiba clearly.

Ry thought then said "I cant!"

"Why not?" asked Hiega sounding sad.

"I would put you guys in danger." Replied Ry and with that Ry left.

Through out the whole day Ry tried to find a way out of the green city.

The next night Ry had finally found the way out and as she walked out she heard gun shots being heard. Then the scent of wolves came to her nose.

Ry then transformed into her wolf form and ran off.

Ry was as gorgeous with her wolf form as her human form. Ry had Red fur and also had white fur at he belly, paws, end of her tail, and around her right eye. Her eyes were golden and on her hind leg was her paw print. The bandage held on her ankle.

Then a howl was heard but it wasn't Nargo growl.

Ry turned to find a brownish/tarnish wolf howling at her as he ran with a white wolf. A grey wolf with a scar on his chest, and a darker brown wolf with silver metal on his right paw.

When they got closer Ry realized it was Hiega and Kiba with two other wolves.

"Hey Ry! I thought you were going to stay at the city." Said Hiega sounding surprised.

"Why would I stay at a place where my friend would be." Said Ry harshly.

Ry caught the eye of the smallest of the four. He looked like her age. He blushed and quickly looked away.

"What kind off danger would you put us in if you traveled with us?" asked Kiba out of the blue.

"Someone's out to kill me and if I travel with you, he'll kill you!" said Ry telling the truth.

"Who is it Ry?" asked Hiega.

"The person who destroyed my clan." Said Ry slowly.

"Ok, can we go now?" asked the man with the scar on his chest.

Ry then decided to look at her left showing off her black paw print on her shoulder.

"Hey! Are you a royal?" asked the wolf with the scar.

"A royal?" asked Ry confused.

"Part of a royal family of a clan?" said the man more specific.

"Oh…Yeah, I guess you could say that." Said Ry thinking hard.

"What was your clan?"

"Wolfsha."

"That clan was destroyed by Nargo the terrible seven years ago!" said the man matter of factly.

"You know Nargo?" asked Ry speechless.

"Yeah, every wolf does."

Silence fell.

"Well, he's after me and if I travel with you I'll put you all in danger." Said Ry sadly.

Ry wanted to go, she did but she didn't want her new friends get killed.

"Ry, If you trust us you wont get hurt or kidnapped under my watch." Said Kiba, stepping out of the four.

Ry thought but as she thought Nargo's scent came closer.

"Ok! I'll do it!" said Ry defiantly.

Then finally all five wolves ran off and Ry was smiling after seven years of solitude, until Hiega asked "so…do I have to call you Princess Ry?"

"I thought I told you to just call me Ry!"

Laughter was among the five wolves as they ran off towards the horizon.
