Several ways to die trying
A/N: HELLO! This is me again. Seeing as my current fic Insert Title Here is getting NO love ( come on people, 2 reviews for chapter two!) I am taking over this fic. My friend Noor started this fic but gave up on it, so I am (with permission!)taking it over. The first two chapters are hers and after that are my chapters. Enjoy.
Summary: Takes place after the final episode. None of the pack have any recollection of their adventures together, or even of the world they were a part of ending. But 'Paradise' is turned upside down when Kiba, Hige, and Toboe begin having dreams about their final escapade. And how will this all change when three girls who were also in the paralell universe become their love interests? Songfic to Dashboard Confessional's "Several Ways to Die Trying". NOTE:Tsume dies in the story so if you don't like it, don't read it.

It gets so cold here
And the night can freeze before you set a fire
And our flares go unnoticed
Diminished
Faded just as soon as they are fired
We are, we are, invisible
Take notice, take interest, take me with you
But all our fears fall on deaf ears
To lead us to the light
And blinding our hearts with their shining lies
And closing our caskets cold and tight
But I'm dying to live
These heights are dizzying
And the climb can kill you long before the fall
And our trails go unmarked and
Unmapped and
Covered just as soon as they are crossed.
We are, we are, desirable
Take notice, take interest, take me with you
But all our fears fall on deaf ears
To lead us to the light
And blinding our hearts with their shining lies
And closing our caskets cold and tight
But I'm dying to live
The lone wolf fell to the ground as if in slow motion. Snow was falling steadily around him and his white fur was matted with blood. A flower was wilting in his jaw and his fallen comrades and enemies lay around him like twisted ornaments, limbs spread at unthinkable angles. Everything around him was dead. He knew that he didn't have much longer to live. The world was sinking, sinking, and he closed his eyes...
Kiba awoke in a cold sweat. He looked at the clock. 4:59. He had to be at work at 6:30, so he decided to get up, seeing as he was already awake. He sat up and began to think about his dream. He was a wolf and...sinking into the ground...it was about as easy as holding water in cupped hands. Though he tried to forget it, he still felt that odd sense of deja vu. He had dreamt it before, he knew it. In fact, it felt like he actually lived it. He shook it off as lack of sleep and got up to make some coffee. There was a cold drop of water on his head as he made his way to the kitchen. He looked up to find the damn ceiling was leaking...again. He silently cursed the world as he made his way into the kitchen. After his coffee was done, he sat on the couch and turned on the TV to one of his three channels. He watched as the reporter spoke.
"There was a tragic motorcycle accident here on I-59 early this morning. This is a picture of the man we found in his wallet."
A picture flashed across the screen, and the first thing that came to Kiba's mind was "Tsume."
"Wait, I'm getting something." she tapped her earpiece and spoke. "I have just received intelligence that this man's name is Tsume. He is currently at the local hospital. If you know anything about the man, please call this number." There was a number and Kiba wrote it down on a napkin. He dialed it.
"Hello?"
"Yes, I want to know where the man named Tsume is being hospitalized. Yes." he wrote down the room number and address of the hospital. "Yes, thank you." He put the slip of paper in his pocket and promised to see the man after lunch, though the reason was beyond him.
"Kiba! You're working the register today!" came Kiba's boss and Wendy's manager's voice.
"I can't fucking wait." he said under his breath. He started to set the register up, and about ten minutes later a guy came in. He looked lost and somehow familiar to Kiba. He looked at the overhead menu for a few minutes until Kiba spoke.
"Can I take your order?"
"Just wait a damn second! Uh...yeah, I want a junior bacon cheeseburger, no mayonnaise...some of those chicken-y nugget-y things...a Cheerwine and...a big ass fries! The biggest you have!" (ok, me and my friends go to Wendy's ALOT so please don't make fun of me!)
"That'll be 5.59" he handed him a ten. "4.41 is your change. Please wait for the food". While they waited in an awkward silence that seemed to last an eternity, the food was ready. He handed him his scolding-hot food.
"I want pie!"
"What?"
"Two pie! Two pie!"
"We have no pie."
"Why no pie?"
"This is Wendy's, not McDonalds."
"Well screw you then."
Something about the tone of the young man's voice, his mannerisms, that was strikingly familiar to feeling. For the third time before noon, Kiba felt that strange sense of deja vu. The man began to walk off before Kiba called out.
"HIGE!"
"How do you know my name?"
"Uh, you, um, look like a Hige. Anyway, here's your drink." He looked at Kiba skeptically when he took his drink to his table and immediately began to scarf it down.
And as the man named Hige began to leave, Kiba couldn't help but feel confused.
