This is a story about how our beloved bishi's get Cheza back and we discover that Hige has been keeping a very very big secret that will shake everyone to the core. Three new OC.
Who Are You?
Who Am I?
The guys darted down the halls of Jagarah's Keep, Kiba Tsume and Toboe following Hige's lead. All but Hige knew what was going on; he was leading his pack to the most dangerous part of the Keep, the lab.
"Hige," Toboe whispered harshly, he didn't like being so exposed in the vaulted halls of Jagarah's Keep. Hige gripped his forehead in an attempt to knock Toboe and the others off of his train of thought, but his pace never slowed. Kiba raised a worried eyebrow towards Hige.
"You ok?" Kiba asked, trying to read his friends eyes.
"Yeah, just fine," muttered Hige as he kept the pack moving forward, his eyes locked on the path ahead that would lead them through a pair of double doors that held a secret, his secret. The darkest secret he could ever think of.
Within the lab
"Kage, KAGE!" screamed a panicked black wolf as she watched her friend have a thick substance injected into her through a long needle behind the bars of her cage.
"SHUT YOUR MOUTH!" yelled a guard as he walked by and kicked the bars of her prison. The one in the cage, was an adult female wolf named Blade.
"Blade," called a soft voice to her left. She turned immediately to her right and saw her little brother Solleks in his cage, looking excited for some odd reason.
"What?" she hissed at his enthusiasm while Kage writhed in pain on the exam table.
"Today's the day that Hige comes back..." Solleks whispered excitedly, the silver wolf had missed his friend and loved hearing the crazy stories he always came back to the lab with.
"Great less food for me…if only those fucking humans hadn't given him that formula, then his appetite wouldn't have gone insane and I wouldn't have to lick scraps off the ground to live." she snarled to herself but she loved Hige and missed him, too.
Hige was one of her best friends, being closer to her in age then the pups and, unlike the pups, he could also remember the old life. She could vaguely remember beautiful lunar flowers and all of her friends and Tsume, her twin brother. The twin that had been born so strong but when she surpassed him in strength and agility, their father became angry and decided that the best way to even the odds between his strong daughter and ailing son was to beat her. Being the children of the alphas, it was near impossible to meet her parents' expectations, but Tsume became stronger just in time for their valley to go up in flames.
Hige stopped outside the large double doors, every hair on his neck stood on end as he smelled the unnaturally sterile scent of the lab.
"Ok guys, Cheza is in there and so are…a few of my friends, we can't leave them behind when we leave with Cheza. I won't leave them behind." he said boldly, Kiba stopped suddenly and his head shot up at the sound of Cheza's name.
"What?" asked Toboe and Tsume at the same time, in shock that Hige had kept something like this a secret for so long. It didn't settle well with Tsume, who was this wolf?
"I know I should have told you guys but…I was afraid that you wouldn't follow me up to now if I told you before." Hige explained. Kiba looked at Hige then the doors then his pack then back at the doors.
"What are we waiting for, Cheza's in there, let's go." Kiba said eagerly, Hige smirked and nodded. He turned and with the other wolves and charged through the double doors. Kage lifted her heavy head from the exam table at the sound of the doors opening. Shouts erupted as guards were taken down and the lab was taken over by the pack.
"HIGE!" screamed Solleks as he saw his friend running over to him with the keys to the cages.
"Woe, you never said anything about there being girls!" cried Tsume as he ran up to Blades cage and began to fumble with the lock.
"JUST OPEN IT BEFORE WE GET CAUGHT!" Blade screamed at him. Tsume stopped and looked closer at her face, it was very familiar.
"FINE" Tsume screamed back at her in the same tone, the black wolf stared at him. He ripped off the lock just as Hige ran over with the keys, Blade looked warily at the large silver male before exiting the cage and stretching her long limbs.
"Cheza…" Kiba put his hand up to the glass then picked up one of the batons and was about to smash the large serum filled glass bubble that held Cheza. He was stopped as a firm hand grabbed his shoulder, he turned to see what he thought was Tsume but quickly realized it was one of the females. She had the same tanned and scarred skin and harsh yellow eyes, but her hair was jet black and hit past her shoulder blades. She never released eye contact as she tapped out a code and the serum began to drain.
"Once it's drained you can smash it and rescue your precious flower maiden," she whispered, in a tone all too similar to Tsumes, to the eager Kiba. He blinked while gripping the baton tighter and swung at the glass and it shattered instantly into a million pieces. Kiba jumped in and ripped off the wires that were attached to the weak flower maiden. He held her bridal style while hopping out of the emptied tank and onto the ground with his fellow pack and three new members gathering around him.
"Cool, let's get out of here, shall we?" asked Hige as he led the way to a tunnel that took them past the walls of the Keep and City to the wide open spaces they had come to love.
"I can't believe we're free..." muttered Solleks as they made it out of the tunnel and into the cold fresh air. Blade nodded and took a deep breath then stepped out of the way so that Kage could get out of the tunnel, the weak pup leaned against her friend and took in her own shaky breath of fresh air. It seemed to recharge something deep within her tired body.
"Blade…Kage…Solleks, you ready for the long road to paradise?" Hige asked the exhausted three.
Let me know what you think, read & review as they say (: it'd be nice to know if this is worth continuing.
