Disclaimer: I'm only doing this once! It's obvious I don't own Wolf's Rain. I do own Tala. And Jeager. And any other character I add! HA! You can't have them!
Ok. This is a sequel to Toboe's adventure. Most of you who reviewed pushed for a sequel. If you want a prequel, tell me and I'll do it when I'm done with this story. I can only focus of one story at a time with the same characters! I know the beginning is cheesy, but just humor me, ok? It worked in my head. Also, please read Foxglen by hecateloviatar, k? I'm working on that too.....so much to do! Anyway, enjoy. And a free glomp to the first reviewer.
Tsume Ran as fast as he could. He knew this town seemed familiar, but he hadn't realized why until the pack of wolves started chasing him. It was his old home. Defiantly somewhere he didn't want to be. Luck was on the gray's side, however, he was easily able to out distance the other wolves. Perhaps to easy.......
"Thank god." He sighed, leaning against the wall. "I wonder where the other's got to. DAMN IT! I told Kiba this was a bad idea." He cursed, not noticing the thugs until they had blocked off the alley.
"Look what we have here Racer....."
"Yeah Slash. Looks like easy Pickens."
"What do you two buffoons want?" Tsume growled, sure he could handle them.
"Nothing much....Just your wallet."
"Well, then your out of luck," Tsume grinned, "I don't have one."
"That's too bad.......We'll just take what we want in blood then...." Slash laughed as he pulled a knife. In a matter of seconds both of the thugs were on Tsume. The wolf was holding his own, but he was tiering fast. After all he had spent all morning running from a pack of angry wolves.
"Et-hum." came the sound of someone clearing their thought at the opening of the alley. Naturally nothing happened. "I said ETHUM!"
"Huh? Buzz off little girl." Snarled Racer. "Alat?" He gasped doing a double take. "Slash...... uhhhh I think we got a problem....."
"Oh really?" Gasped Slash as he slashed out at Tsume.
"Yes really." The girl at the end of the alley answered. "Your trespassing."
"So?" came the smart ass reply.
"So.....We're not happy. You don't want to mess with Alat when she's not happy do you?"
"Alata?" He yelped spinning around and tossing Tsume into a trash can. "Uh.....I can explain....."
"Can you really? Then enlighten me; what exactly are you doing in MY territory attacking MY marks?"
"Uhhhhhhhhh...well you see......He's....he...he doesn't have any money so...."
"So not only are you attacking MY marks, but your poaching them Too?"
"Uh..." Racer gulped. "This looks bad...."
"Yes I'd say so." came the clam reply.
"Errrr.....sorry?"
"Yes you are. Get out of here before I take it out of your hides." With that the two thugs ran like hell. "You ok in there?"
"Fine." Tsume growled, extracting himself from the trash. "I could've handled it myself."
"Sure you could." came the neutral reply.
"I had them right where I wanted.!"
"I know..." Tsume bristled at the calm words. "So.......your in my territory."
"You wanna make somethin'' of it?"
"I don't know, Tsume, I might, but you seem to have a tendency for running away."
"You are you?!" He snarled. "You're a wolf!"
"So?"
"What do you want?!"
"Just one thing..." The girl-wolf ran over to him and flipped him, landing on his chest. "Where's Toboe?" She yipped, "and....Gotha! Payback's a bitch huh? That's for pinning me the last time."
"Tala?" came the startled reply
"Bingo!" She laughed, letting him up. "Long time, huh?"
"Your going around as a human now?" dusting himself off he looked at Tala's girl form. "A little short." He joked noticing she didn't even come up to his chin. She was dressed in street gear; dark tight jeans with a tee that proclaimed to the world that she was a bitch and a loose trench over it all.
"Hey, I'm not exactly large, you know? 'Sides, my rep is enough to keep people form trying anything. Guess you don't know where the rest of you guys are huh?"
"No........"
"Figured as much when I saw the local pack chasing you. Lucky for you that you came down here." She gestured around, indicating the alley.
"Why's that?"
"They won't wander into our territory if we don't mess with there's." Tala glanced apologetically over at Tsume, "I would have helped you out, otherwise."
"'our'?" Tsume asked, raising an eyebrow.
Tactfully ignoring the question, Tala headed out of the alley, "So....let's go find your pack." She set a brisk pace. "I bet I know where they are...."
