Luna stared in shock at the two wolves. But to her shock the grey scared one turned into Tsume. He unlocked the prison door. "Get your slow butt out of there and come on!"
"Tsume?" Luna blinked shocked. "What are you doing here? And you are a wolf too?'
"Apparently." Tsume nodded. "Come on. If you want to get out, then follow me. You too runt." He turned back to his wolf form and started jogging towards the exit.
"Let's go Luna." Toboe said looking over at her as he turned into his wolf form as well.
"Right." Luna followed the two wolves, thinking more and more about her book back home. They are the legendary wolf pack… or at least part of it… I just have to find three others! The white, the brown, and the black one!
After a few minutes they came to a fork in the path, guarded by two men. "WOLVES!" They gasped and held up their guns. Luna gasped, scared that they were going to shoot.
"W-Wait!" She held up her arms moving forward. "D-Don't shoot!" A gun shot fired. Luna flinched, but blinked as she noticed Tsume in front of her. The gun shot had hit him in the arm. "Tsume?!"
"That wolf turned into a man!" A guard gasped.
"Runt!" Tsume growled. "Get the girl out of here."
"But you're hurt!" Luna gasped.
"GO!" He growled.
Toboe grabbed her arm. "Come on Luna!" He had turned back as well. "Let's get out of here!"
Another gun shot went off. Luna flinched as it buzzed by her ear. "I SAID GET HER OUT OF HERE!" Tsume yelled.
A howl sounded and Luna looked back seeing a large brown wolf wearing a collar around his neck, attacking the guards. It finished them off easily and turned to look at Tsume, Toboe, and Luna.
Luna took a step forward. "Thank you…. Can you turn into a human as well?"
"You owe me some food when this is over." The wolf turned into Hige and he smiled. "So Tsume and Toboe are wolves as well now?"
"Yeah." Luna nodded. "Come on, let's get out of here."
Tsume nodded. "To the left. It's the way I came from."
"I came from the right." Hige said. "Either way will get us out of here."
Tsume nodded and started heading left. "I guess we'll follow him." Hige grumbled. "Arrogant jerk!"
"We need to go with him! He's injured!" Luna ran after Tsume, aware of Hige and Toboe following them.
After a few moments they all came to another fork in the road. "To the right." Tsume said.
"Hang on!" Luna grabbed his uninjured arm. "We have to find Sora! She's my family! I can't leave her!"
Tsume looked down at her and then sniffed the air.
"She's to the left as well." Hige stepped forward. "I recognized the smell. I also smell that guy Kiba. I think he might be a wolf too."
"Do you think he's a white wolf?!" Luna asked.
"I don't know? Why do you ask?" Hige looked over.
"I…"
"Come on!" Tsume started to jog forward again.
"Wait!" Luna grabbed his arm, just under where he had been shot. She ripped off part of her jacket and wrapped it around his wound. "There." She smiled.
Tsume looked down at her and grumbled. "Come on." He moved forward again. "He's grumpy." Hige muttered.
"Come on." Luna smiled. "We've got to go find Sora." They started to run. Luna kept close to Tsume, keeping an eye on his arm. It was starting to bleed through her jacket strip. Tsume didn't slow down. Is this the power and strength of a wolf?
A growl sounded suddenly. Everyone tensed but watched as a large white wolf stepped forward. Tsume growled back, turning into his wolf form. The white wolf frowned and shifted. Kiba stood there looking at them silently. "You…" Tsume turned back and the two eyed each other down cautiously.
"Wait!" Luna stepped forward. "Kiba… you're…"
"Kiba what's going on?" A blond hair girl with gold eyes walked forward. Her eyes locked onto Luna and she grinned happily. She rushed forward and halfway towards Luna she turned into a large black and white dog, it was Sora.
"Sora?" Luna blinked shocked as the dog, no wolf, rubbed her head against Luna's hand. "Sora… You're a wolf!"
Sora paused and looked up at Luna before turning back to her human form. "Luna? Are you upset that I'm a wolf?"
"No." Luna shook her head. She smiled. "Now we can talk."
Sora smiled and grinned happily. "Come on! Let's get out of here before that annoying human returns here."
Luna nodded and looked at Kiba. "Thank you for helping Sora out."
Kiba nodded. "Come on. This way is the exit." Tsume growled. He didn't look like he trusted Kiba.
"Let's go… There's something I have to show you all." Luna touched Tsume's back gently. "Please don't fight with each other."
"Let's go." Toboe smiled.
Kiba and Tsume glared at each other, but they followed each other towards the exit. Hige chuckled. "Those two don't seem to like each other." He whispered to Luna and Sora.
"So are we all wolves?" Sora asked looking over the others as they ran.
"Yeah." Toboe smiled. "We all discovered recently that we are wolves."
"Cool." Sora smiled.
"Hurry up!" Tsume growled angrily. "You're falling behind!"
"We're coming!" Toboe yelled. He sped up. All of the wolves stayed in their human form as they ran, just to be on the safe side. Luna was having a hard time keeping up, but thinking about her book and the legend in it, she was exited. She was able to see the legend come true. She looked over at Sora.
She must be the guide to the Moon Lake…. It made Luna sad to think her friend would be leaving, but happy to see the wolves bring the legend true. The legend that she had been told since she was a child. She would show the wolves, and they would begin their journey… Leaving her the human alone to live out the rest of her life alone. She felt a little sad, but tried her best not to show it in front of the wolves. It wasn't her path, she was just a human.
