Chapter 1 - Paradise.

Where am I? And that was the moment I realized I died. But if you're dead.. Can you still think? "Hige" I heard someone calling my name... It was such a familiar voice.. But.."Hige.." Again the same voice.. Who.. is calling me? I tried to think from whom this voice was.. but..I couldn't put a name on it.. Who are you? I thought. "Hige" Again that familiar voice.. but this time I recognised it. It was Blue! But..what was she doing here.. "Hige wake up" The voice became clearer.. Wake up..? How..? I tried to find my eyes and when I finally found them, I forced them to open. I blinked at the sunlight. My eyes couldn't stand so much light in one time. When I could see normally I was suprised. I expected a dead land with rotten trees and a dark sky. But I lay in a beautiful grassfield with some flowers. When my eyes could see normally, my other senses came back too. I could feel the soft breeze in my fur. Smell the grass where I lay in. That moment I remember that Blue must be here somewhere too. But I couldn't find her. I tried to call her, but I couldn't find my voice. Blue! I thought. Where was she..? There was nobody except me.. Why..? I was sure it was her voice that was calling me.. Maybe that was just my imagination.. A daydream..? I sighed.. And closed my eyes.. But still I heard nothing.. only some birds happily singing.. Blue...... I fell slowly in a deep sleep.

The moment I woke up. I was still at the same place. I opened my eyes and looked around, nothing had changed.. But why would there something change..? And then I feltsomething on my other side, curled against my back. Blue!! I thought excited. And there she was. So it wasn'ta dream at all.. Not my imagination.. I just watched here till she woke up. She yawned and looked right in my eyes with an suprised look in her eyes. She didn't know I had awaken when she wasn't there. I smiled faintly, and she replied with a smile too. We looked eachother for a long time in the eyes. Finally she was be able to say something.. "Hige! You're finally awake!" And she gave me a big hug. "Sorry, I didn't want you to worry" I answered blushing and gave her a hug back. "But where are we? I thought we both died.." I asked her. "This is paradise, hige!" she said. I thought about that, that was a logic answer. I tried to remember what happened before.. The fight with Darcia, I clinched by the memory of blue wounded. "Is this really paradise? Where are Kiba, Toboe, Tsume? She didn't answered and was looking in an other way. "I think this is paradise, I mean it's really beautiful here and I'm here with you." she said finally. "But I don't know what happened to the others. I hope they're ok.." After that we were both still for a long time. Then she stood up. "I'm going to get us some food, I think you're hungry." she said with a smile. And she was right, I was really hungry. I nodded and watched here walk away.

When she came back, she had a rabbit in her mouth. I tried to stood up, but I couldn't.. I hadn't enough strenght, maybe after I ate something. She gave me the rabbit, I ripped off a leg. I tasted really good. "Thanks" I said to the blue wolf sitted next to me. She answered with a smile. I ate the whole rabbit, Blue had already eaten she said. I closed my eyes for a moment and then tried to stand again. Without any success, Blue saw what I was trying to do. "Hige, don't. You've not enough strenght." she said with a worried expression. "Give it a few days, I'll bring you everything you need." I looked in her eyes, and listened to what she said. I closed my eyes again and tried to sleep. Blue curled next to me, that was a nice feeling and I felt quick asleep.
