Chapter 4
"It's you." Maya said as she petted Blacky's fur. "I can say the same thing to you." Fenrir began growling again upon seeing the girl before them. Starlight tightened her grip on Fenrir's neck a little more to make sure that he didn't attack since they're in the city. Starlight couldn't help glaring at the girl, knowing there is more to this girl than what she appears to be. She then turned her glare at the black wolf, whom is now known as Blacky, "So, how long have you had that thing, Maya, was it?" Maya glared at her, "He's male and he's not a thing!" Starlight almost smirked, seeing how fast she made Maya angry, "Sorry, I couldn't tell what gender it was, I mean 'he'." She said sarcastically, "Maybe you should learn to control him better." Maya clenched her fists, "My wolf is fine, but I can't say the same thing for yours." Starlight gave Maya a death glare as Fenrir began growling again, "Why you!"
Daylight knew there was something wrong once she saw Starlight and not to mention seeing Fenrir jumping out of the car and chasing after something that appeared to look like another wolf. Daylight turned to leave after saying a quick goodbye to Shiori, Kurama and Hiei but…, "We'll go with you." Daylight turned back to Kurama, "Are you sure?" Kurama gave her a smile, "Yes, that is, if Hiei wants to go too." Hiei shrugged, "Hn, I don't see why we should bother chasing a wolf through town but I guess it's better than sitting at home." Kurama smiled with Daylight nodding, "Okay, then let's go." Daylight and Kurama got into the van with Hiei flitting ahead of them. They weren't sure where to look for until they saw several people running from the park. Kurama and Daylight looked at each other before heading towards the park. Once they found a parking spot which had hardly anybody in it. They got out and began searching for Starlight and Fenrir while stood on a small hill. Hiei was the first to spot the girl and her wolf but saw another person with a wolf standing next to them. Hiei jumped down from a power line pole, landing perfectly next to Kurama, "I found them, but it also looks like someone else has a wolf." Daylight looked at him, "What was that?" Hiei turned to her, "I'm not going to repeat myself." Daylight raised her hands in defense, "I heard you. It's just caught me off guard."
All three of them walked in the direction towards the small group. Once they came close enough they were surprised to see Maya standing next to a black wolf. Starlight was glaring at her, "Why you!" Daylight could sense that Starlight was going to do something and had to stop her before she could, "Starlight!" The two girls looked at the approaching group, that's when Maya kneeled down and hugged Blacky tightly, "How dare your wild animal hurt my Blacky!" She yelled towards Starlight. In return, Starlight death glared her, not actually believing what she was hearing, "Whaat?" Daylight came closer, "Starlight, did…Fenrir really do that?" Starlight turned to her, "You're not actually believing the bull she's saying, are you?" Daylight shrugged, "I was just asking?" Starlight glared, "I wouldn't believe anything that leaves that mouth of hers. She hiding something and I'm determent to find out what it is." Maya put and innocent look on her face, "I have nothing to hide." Starlight made a sound of disbelieving, "Oh, please. You show up out of now where and then you want us to think that you came back to your hometown for a visit? Have you ever kept in contact with anyone here?" Maya kept her mouth shut, and Hiei noticed a glare on the girl's face as she hugged the black wolf closer to her. She then spoke in a gentle face despite her anger, "I admit I didn't keep in touch with anyone but that doesn't I'm hiding anything." Starlight gritted her teeth before speaking, really not liking this girl, "Suuure…" Maya did glare this time, "If you want something to talk about, then how about training your wolf to be more obedient and maybe even have him on a leash." Starlight didn't like this, "You're such a –" Daylight spoke up again, "Starlight!" Starlight turned her glare to Daylight, "She's severally asking to be called that."
Starlight turned back to Maya, "And on top of that, she's a –" Daylight yelled at her again, "Starlight! Why on earth are you being so mean?" Starlight sighed, "You won't believe, even if I tell you." Starlight looks down to see that Fenrir has finally calmed down, so she released him, "Forget it, forget that I said anything. Come on Fenrir, let's go home." Everyone watched Starlight and Fenrir head towards the parking lot without saying a word. Maya stay kneeling down next to Blacky petting him gently and whispering to him, "There, there the mean old bad wolf is gone." Daylight crossed her arms, "This is strange." Both Hiei and Kurama looked at her, "What is?" She turned to Kurama, lowering her voice so Maya wouldn't hear them, "Starlight doesn't get mad at a stranger so easily. I mean she may not trust them at first but she only met Maya yesterday and now she wants to put it simply, to bite her head off." Hiei gave a small smirk, "Are you sure she hasn't done this before?" Daylight shook her head, "No, not ever. This is the first time she ever has done this." Maya looked up at the group, "Oh Shuichi, I didn't see you there!" Daylight reeeally couldn't help but roll her eyes with Hiei growling a little.
Maya stood up with Blacky standing back up beside her. She smiled sweetly at him, "Can you believe that girl lets her wolf lose like that? And it's not even tamed right." Daylight glared at the girl, "Excuse me, but that's my sister you're talking about, and not to mention the wolf is tamed very well. It was probably your wolf that made her wolf aggressive." Maya looked apologetically at Daylight, "I'm sorry, I didn't mean anything by it. It's just that my wolf wouldn't hurt a fly." She said as she petted Blacky.
Daylight took the time to look Maya over. She was wear a skirt that seems appropriate for her, a black t-shirt with no designs on it, flat black shoes which looked like nurses shoes, only black, and her hair up in an elegant bun. Nothing seems out of the ordinary about this girl, but, 'Starlight is right. There is something off with this girl. I can feel it, but I still don't know what it is…'
The next second Maya came really close to Kurama that he could feel her hot breath on him, "So, where's your girlfriend?" The question obviously off guard, "Well, uh…she's nearby." Daylight coughed a little with Hiei growling a little more. Maya smiled again, "Is she close around here or near your house?" Kurama took a quick look at Hiei, "She actually closer than you think." Hiei let out another growl which is louder than the last one, "Kurama, we have to go. We didn't say we'd take long, remember?" Kurama gave a small laugh, looking towards Hiei again, "Sorry, we'll leave right now." He turned back to Maya, "Sorry Maya, but we have to go." Kurama turned and was about to leave when Maya noticed his bandaged hand, "What happened to your hand?" He stopped and turned back to her, "Hm?" Then he looked down at his hand, "Oh, some wild animal bite me." Maya came close to him again, taking his bandaged hand in both of hers, "Does it hurt?" Hiei took a step forward but Daylight put her arm up in front of him. He glared at her but she just shook her head no. Hiei turned back to Kurama and the girl glaring right at Maya, wanting to so badly hurt the girl.
Kurama tried to remove his hand without trying to forcefully his from Maya's hands, but she held a tight yet gently grip on his hand as she turned over his hand, examining it very closely. "Was it 'that girl's' animal?" Kurama looked up at her, "Of course not. Fenrir is always staying near Starlight; he hardly ever goes closer to anyone else." Maya kept turning over his hand, "I see." Daylight hand enough of this, besides, Hiei's energy was rising and that probably was not a good idea to let this go on any further, "Uh um, we really have to go." Maya looked up and smiled sweetly, "I'm sorry." She finally let go of Kurama's hand but for some reason his hand started bleeding. Daylight and Hiei noticed the moment he turned. Daylight took his hand, "Kurama, your hand is bleeding again." Kurama looked down at the same time she touched his hand, "I didn't even notice…" Daylight looked quickly up at Maya, "You didn't happen to get blood on you, did you?" Maya now her hands behind her back and still smiling sweetly, "No, if I did, wouldn't I have mention it?" Daylight found the smile a little disturbing, "I guess…?" Daylight turned back to Kurama as she quickly examining the wound, "Come on, I have some clean bandages in the van." Kurama nodded and let his hand fall down to his side as they walked back to the van.
Maya stayed where she stood, watching the other three get into the van and drive away. She finally brought her hands from behind her back with blood on her thumb from her left hand. She licked the blood off with Blacky watching her. After licking the blood away, she smiled and giggled.
Sorry for any mistakes, and as usually, I'll try to go back and fix it.
