Disclaimer: I don't own Keiichi, Belldandy, Urd, Skuld, and any other OMG
character. I only own Leamen and her parents. I don't own the werewolf/wolf-
beings concept either, which is a concept that is probably older than I am.
Many thanks to Senbei Liz Holt for their help! ^-^
Prologue
She ran, cradling the small bundle of purple blankets in which was her only child, Leamen. Away from the heavens, away from him. Bil, God of the Moon. How foolish she had been. Zukkie stopped for a few seconds to catch her breath. She loosened her tail from her waist; it was one of those times where she found her Lupi-jin traits rather annoying.
"I will never leave her with him.Never!" she though as she looked down at her child.
The small infant had large blue eyes that were as deep as any ocean, and dark blue hair. Her hair had many long spikes, surrounding the child's face, making her look like a weird sun. But, the most noticeable things about that baby, was the fact that, out of the blanket covering the little body, stuck a blue and white, fluffy tail, and on her face were strange markings. The symbol on her forehead resembled a drop of water, and two long triangles were at the corner of her eyes.
The baby resembled her mother on many aspects. Zukkie also had a few spikes of hair; but unlike Leamen's, they didn't stand up. Zukkie's hair was cut short, but a thin, long ponytail left untouched spoke of her status in her tribe; the Alpha female. Zukkie's eyes were less round than her daughter's, but they seemed to hold a warmth that dissipated the fear that her cat-like yellow eyes inspired.
Leamen was getting fussy, she felt her mother's concern and nervousness. Zukkie gently tried to hush her, calm her down, but there was no time. They were closing in on her.
Zukkie resumed running. She knew she could get away through one of the gates that were used as a meaning of transportation for gods and goddesses, when they needed to travel to other realms.
"Where are those gates.." she pondered.
She scanned the area as fast and as well as she could while running.
That's when she spotted a short, purple-haired goddess, who was about to step into a pink pillar of light.
Zukkie tightened her hold on her baby and ran straight for it, thinking she'd knock the deity over, to get in before she did.
Twenty feet.fifteen feet.ten feet.
She'd done it! Zukkie could finally get away from all of them.. She could feel freedom greeting her and her daughter with arms wide open.. But she was stopped dead in her tracks as two celestial guards seemed to pop out of nowhere, right between herself and her only getaway, the gate.
The purple-haired goddess gave them a quick glance, stepped hastily into the pillar, and could be seen floating down.and it was getting paler as the goddess disappeared from sight.
"Hand over the baby, Lupi-jin, she belongs with us." Said the first guard, pointing his Val-Haid staff right at her.
"No way! There's absolutely NO way I'm leaving my baby here!" Zukkie yelled.
"Do not resist us, or we will have t---"
His sentence was cut short by the fact that Zukkie's foot had smashed in his face, as her fluffy black tail hit his arm, disarming him. The other guard jumped in, but was soon sent flying by a swift punch to the jaw. She heard them calling for help as she ran to the vanishing gate.
Zukkie clutched Leamen close to her, and jumped in the gate, just before it would close. She breathed a sigh of relief as she slowly floated down to the realm of Earth.
Zukkie quickly noticed the darkening sky, as the day took its toll. She landed in the middle of a thick forest, and as soon as she set foot on the ground she quickly kneeled and set her baby on the ground and checked her over.
Leamen looked fine as she cooed at her mom, her little tail wagging a bit; she too seemed relieved to be safe. Zukkie's dog-like ears twitched as she listened to her environment. The woman could tell there was a village of some sort nearby.
Zukkie thought about what she should do; there was no way they would let them be, they'd surely come after her and her baby. Luckily for the both of them, night had come, and its darkness would keep her from being seen. The Lupi-jin sniffed the air again, wanting to be sure of which direction to take; she definitely smelt humans.
It took her about ten minutes to reach the small suburb town. She looked around carefully and came out on the street when the coast was cleared. Zukkie made her way to the first house she saw. It wasn't too big, but not too small either. Zukkie sniffed the air again.Her sense of smell picked up two human beings. A male and a female. There wasn't any other human scent; it seemed it was a couple living alone.
She clutched Leamen to her, and walked silently to the porch of the house. She set her child down and watched her for a moment. The baby just looked at her and smiled, then held out her hands to be picked up. Zukkie's heart broke, instead of picking her up she gently stroked her face and rubbed her thumb on her daughter's forehead marking. It glowed slightly in response to the touch... Zukkie then took out a piece of paper that resembled parchment. She balled her right fist hard so that her palms would bleed, and she wrote Leamen's name on the parchment with her bloody fingers, and put the paper beside the child. She then took a deep breath, and gave three good knocks on the door, before darting out of the way, heading back to the forest without looking back. Even though she was far away, Zukkie heard the surprised reaction of a woman when she opened the door, the heard the door closing. Zukkie wiped a few tears from her cheeks, and headed deep through the forest, hoping for the best and that her daughter would lead a wonderful life with her new parents.
