Chapter Two

Trouble

I do not own Wolf's Rain. I only own Brighteyes. If I did own Wolf's Rain I would make Darcia wear bright pink.

This chapter stars in the decaying city in episode 4. In Wolf form Brighteyes is known as Brighteyes, in her human form she is known as Karina Revan or Karina for short. Toboe is Brighteyes' half-sister because Toboe's dad mated with Brighteyes' mum after Brighteyes' dad died.

Morning came, Brighteyes woke up to see Toboe's face in front of her. "Morning, Brighteyes" Toboe said licking her half-sister's face. Brighteyes lifted her head up disturbing Kiba, Kiba woke up after feeling Brighteyes move he looked at Brighteyes and said, "Do you have any idea where we are going to?"

"No" Brighteyes said looking at Kiba who replied, "We are going to Paradise" Brighteyes looked at him and said, "You really believe in Paradise?" Kiba just nodded and Brighteyes continued, "I don't believe in a place such as that"

Tsume looked at Brighteyes and said, "You don't believe in Paradise?" Brighteyes just nodded and said, "My dad said that there was no such place called Paradise" Tsume said to Brighteyes "I hope you don't plan on leaving us"

"Why?" Brighteyes said looking calmly at Tsume. Tsume just walked up to Brighteyes and said, "Toboe needs you to look after her, she is getting too much trouble for me to look after her on my own. I almost died protecting her on some occasions" Brighteyes whispered to him "I think you care for Toboe" Tsume looked at Brighteyes and turned his nose up at what Brighteyes said. "We should get moving, we have to get to Paradise" Kiba said to everyone, "I'm sick of that word!" Tsume and Brighteyes said. "Hey are you to feeling alright?" Hige said standing up, "You just the same thing? I think you like each other"

"I do not like him/her I rather be on my own!" both Brighteyes and Tsume shouted. Brighteyes turned tail and left the cave, Toboe followed her, Hige followed after Toboe out, Kiba went next, and Tsume brought up the rear.

Kiba went to the front of his pack and started running, Tsume was running behind him followed by both Toboe and Brighteyes, Hige brought up the rear.

"I had a dream about Paradise they were lunar flowers every where" Toboe said in human form as they rested on a snow covered hill. "Tell me have you seen lunar flowers before?" Hige said with an eyebrow raised in human form, "Hey Brighteyes you should changed into a human" Brighteyes looked at Hige and shifted into her human form, she wore a pink tank top that said Beware of Tigers, her trousers were a tight wear of leggings in a bright pink colour, on her feet were black knee high boots. "Wow you are hot!" Hige said looking at her. "In this form I am known as Karina Revan. Revan was the name of my grandmother, and Karina is the name my parents came up with. Brighteyes is my wolf name, I don't go by this name in human form, because everyone I meet will start singing the Brighteyes song"

"You think you are pretty tough but I think you are not" Tsume said with his eyes on Karina, who just stuck her tongue out at him. "Lets keep moving" Kiba said getting up, Karina got up after him and helped Toboe get up, Hige got up as well, Tsume was the last to get up. They all ran in their human forms till they got to a bridge. "Paradise must be here lets go!" Toboe said running over the bridge. "Toboe get back here don't wonder off!" Brighteyes said running after Toboe. Kiba, Hige and Tsume just shook their heads and started running after Brighteyes and Toboe.

The wolves made it to a decaying city, "If this is Paradise, it sure does stink" Karina said holding her nose. The group of five went past some wolves standing by a little fire. "Where did you five come from?" the leader of the wolves said looking over at Karina who did not like the look he was giving her. "From a town up in the north" Kiba said noticing how Karina didn't like the look at the other wolf was giving her. "Where are you going" the person in the red hat said looking at them. "We are going to Paradise!" Toboe said happily. The wolves started to laugh, at this Karina said well shouted "WHAT'S SO FUNNY?!" the wolves who were laughing shut up and the leader said, "Paradise is just a bedtime story for little wolves it doesn't exist"

"Let's find some place safe to sleep" Karina said grabbing Toboe's hand and leading her away. Tsume, Kiba, and Hige followed after them. Hige's tummy was rumbling when they were walking.

The group of five made it to a grave yard and Toboe said, "This is creepy" Tsume turned and said to her, "Stop your whining"

Just then a noise was heard by the five, "You here something?" Toboe said standing close to her half-sister, an old wolf popped his head up form inside a hole. Toboe and Hige screamed and fell on their butts. Karina just sighed, and went to look at the old wolf who suddenly turned into an old guy, Karina screamed out "Zombie!" and hid behind Kiba, who just shook his head and said to the old wolf "What are you doing?" the old wolf replied, "I'm digging a hole for myself"

"Your digging a grave?" Hige said to this Tsume added, "Then you should just dig a little faster"

The old wolf explained to the five young wolves that the whole place was filled with lunar flowers and that a tunnel was the only way to escape the place; some wolves tried to go that way but gave up and turned back. Then the leader of the wolves from before turned up and told the old wolf to get to work, the old wolf just went. "You young ones should leave this town in the morning, because if you don't I kill every one of you and take the older female in your group as my mate" Karina hid behind Hige as the leader said this, Toboe went up to her half-sister and hugged her. Kiba led his small pack to a crumbling house.

When they got there Karina just sat down on the floor, and put her head in her hands, Hige sat next to her and put a comforting arm around her; Karina lifted her head and rested it on Hige's shoulder. Kiba went out of the place after having a argument with Tsume.

Chapter done. I haven't watch this episode of Wolf's Rain on the internet so I don't know how it went. Brighteyes is the song from Watership Down. In this story the mate of the leader got killed by an hunter. Please R/R.
