DISCLAIMER: I do now own Wolf's Rain, only the idea for this story.

Grace's P.O.V

I couldn't believe what I had just done. The water froze over and the center of the lake cracked. Pink hair aroze, followed by a human body. It was the flower maiden. Before her feet even touched the ground, ropes were strung around her. The ice made a terrible cracking sound before the the water in the late bust up like a geyser! It was like an upside down waterfall. When the water stopped, the flower maiden was gone. I would've jumped for joy if a pricking sensation in my leg didn't go off. Then everything went black.

I woke up in yet another small cage. I panicked and ran into the wall. It was a mistake because it didn't even make a dent.

"Wake up! Wake up! Time to go!" a strange voice called. A slot of the cage opened so I imediantly ran through it. When I emerged from it, I was in a little clearing. There were trees and other things, but a huge wall surrounded ever side of it. The wall was way too tall to jump up. There was no way out! I panicked once again and ran around before spotting one of the Ones. It was Toboe! He was lying under a tree, watching the top of the walls.

"What are you doing? Where are we?" I asked him, hoping he had the answers.

"I think we're in a zoo," Toboe answered.

"A ZOO! We can't be in a zoo! This is terrible!" I half whimpered half yelled.

"I'm sitting here watching the people," Toboe spoke up. I stopped running around and looked up. Sure enough, people were watching us. Small flashes of light went off almost every second, probably cameras.

"Oh man, where are we?" another voice asked.

"We're in a zoo, whatever you do, do not change into a human. Then we will all be in trouble," I answered. The last thing we wanted was to make ourselves stand out.

"Porky, runt, and girly, what a nice surprise to see you all together," Tsume announced us by our new nicknames. I, of course, was girly.

"Tsume, do not go human at anytime. Zoos are crazy about weird stuff like that," I said.

"Good to kn, wait, ZOO!" Tsume yelled.

"Yes," I responded, still watching the people.

"We've got to get out of here!" he yelled and stormed off. Toboe ran after him until only Hige and I were left. I paced around in circles, occasionally stopping to watch the people or wake up Hige, until the people left. I was scared, and I am not afraid to admit it, when a howl came from within the clearing. It was Tsume.

Kiba's P.O.V.

Ramisha had sent the others to some kind of zoo. The only reason Kiba knew was because when she was mad, she yelled about it in the other room. Why she hadn't sent Kiba there, only Kiba really knew. She wanted Paradise, but she wouldn't get it.

"You're lucky, for now. The flower maiden is more powerful than I thought. But don't worry, we'll find her soon enough, and when I do, well, lets just say that you won't be so lucky anymore," Ramisha said and walked back out of the room she kept Kiba in. What was he going to do?

This chapter is extremely short, I know, but next chapter will be a lot longer, I promise. I have just had literally no time to write this week. It sucks really bad, but you will have to wait another week. Sorry. :-(
