Total Chaos
Disclaimer:
Toboe: Okay… I have nothing to say… I decided not to put the car rides up. That is a Slaves thingie… Meepers this is a first normally I will find something to blabble about… OH! I know! Remember that Cultureshapers project I was working on? Well to put it short It was a !gynormus! statue of a horses head. Anyway it was going to a important thingie so we put it in the kiln to fire it and… I blew up! I WANT SYMPATHY! READ AND THINK OF THINGS TO SAY TO MAKE ME FEEL BETTER!
Kris raced among the trees, the precious herb held between her fangs. She leaped over a fallen tree and, to her surprise, barreled right into Roukan. The male wolf snarled but when seeing his pack mate calmed down and quickly motioned with his head.
"Soldiers!"
Kris felt a storm of decisions attacking her. Should she stay and fight or deliver the herb to Kuni? If she didn't get the herb to her in time Reaven might not make it but if she did she might never get to fight. Slowly she hung her head in defeat. She could never leave this up to fate and risk losing her freind. She slowly turned towards camp when she saw Jess already racing towards it. The idea hit her like a thunderbolt.
"Jess take this to Kuni! Tell her it is Yarrow!" She said and tossed it on top of the bird in her friend's hands.
"Finally! Time to fight!" She yelped delightedly.

"Here Kuni! Fresh water!" Kawa said as she squeezed past the tight opening. She quickly handed the bowl to the wolf acting as a nurse and watched as she wetted the ailing wolf's head.
Kawa started making a fire when something struck her and she turned towards Toboe who was feeling pretty useless a grim look plastered on her face.
"Toboe where is Klaue?"
"He went to go looking for Tsume and Kris"
"Well, I am right here"
The she wolves turned to see an irritated wolf with a pile of leaves in his hands standing at the entrance.
"Everything is here except for that one green" Tsume growled as he dumped the foliage next to Kuni, "That little bitch said she got it"
Kawa made a face that said if-you-say-that-one-more-time-you-will-not-be-happy and clamped her hands over Chi's ears while Toboe just stood there trying not to laugh.
"Toboe, Kawa start cooking these, Tsume go keep look out"
"Hum! You aren't the boss of me Bitch"
Again Kawa made that look and clamped her hands over Chi's delicate fluffy ears.
Kuni turned and shot a glare at the wolf like ice daggers.
"I am trying to save this wolf so if you will please make sure we are safe then I would be much obliged" Kuni said in a flat voice, a little smear of blood above her eyes when she had rubbed her forehead.
Tsume felt a sudden surge of respect for the she wolf and decided for once he would do it, and with a smooth jump raced out off the cave in a sleek grey pelt.
'But,' he thought, 'just this once.'

A large wolf growled deeply, his dark brown hair stood straight up. Large gray blue eyes glared at his opponent, a heavily armed soldier. The soldier swung his shield up as sound waves blasted from it. The wolf jumped over the soldier on powerful black legs. He landed on top of the soldier his front leg on each shoulder and dug his fangs into his throat biting deep. A crack snapped thought the air as the soldier let a strangled gasp and crumpled to the floor, blood pouring from the new wound on his neck.
"I hate the taste of human blood"
Klaue spat out the dark liquid ad stood up in human form, his floor length jacket rusting as he sat down on a near by rock. He tilted his head towards the sky, closing his eyes and taking a deep breath trying to gather his thoughts.
"Kris" He said not opening his eyes.
"Tsume?"
He sighed and stood up leaves snapping under his black boots. A look of disgust crossed his face as he walked around the dead soldier, its blood already turning brown.
"Were in hell are they?" he growled and continued to stumble thought the green woods.

Jess scrambled down the path trying hard not to fall with the two important objects nesled in herarms when she saw the rock wall and the wolf nose pecking from under the bush.
"TSUME!"
The wolf raised his gray head and turned his bright eyes to glare at her. When Jess reached him he moved over so she could wiggle through the tight entrance. She collapsed as soon as she got thought, spitting out the dry, feathery bird and lying there letting the cold, gray rock cool her down. Without a word Kuni took the flower and crushed it, mixing it into a dish with some kind of funny mixture and pouring it into the sickly Reaven's wounds.
Hane meanwhile had come around and was groggily sputtering out nonsense to Kawa. The she wolf listened intently as the bird squawked and screeched.
"Meza sees a troopirtroop MuthzersKawaWolife! It a marchedie march and yella onezi twozie! Mea sayes to me self 'Youa swoopieswoop toa seez' and mea looksie but theya shooted ata me. Mea saw talled manzer with biga pointiesharpa stickzs. He a yellena and a growlida! Mucha scarded was id. Mea going toa campiecave whena JessWolfie fondes! Mea thankedfull!"
The bird gave a chirp and nestled in Kawa's lap but opened a eye when Chi poked him in the side with a fluffy black paw.
"Meza bittie of thata pointieclaw muchiefast like!"
Kawa giggled but turned towards Kiba, Mika, KaYasha, Blue, and Getsu who had just returned from a situation scoop. Kawa intently scrambled to the wolves, dropping the fox cub and the deranged bird on the floor.
"Getsu!" she squeaked, "Hane found their commander!" She excitedly relayed all what the bird had told her.
"Anything else?" Getsu asked a hard look on his face. 'So,' he thought,' we are looking for a guy with a big pointy sorwd and diffrent armor.'
Kawa shook her head and slunk back over to Toboe, who was looking worriedly at her; Chi, who was crying for food; and Hane who was grumbling about no respect. She pulled the rumpled bird into her lap and scratched his head, thoughtfully. Hane moved his head so she was scratching under his beak and closed his eyes in delight.
Getsu looked at his sister, a line of fret creasing his brow.
"Sister, call the rest of the wolves. Howl for them"
Kuni's eyes widened as she left. She wasn't going to question Getsu for he was the pack but it troubled her on what he had planning. A howl could give away their position and lead the enemy right to them.

Kris dug her back paws into the loose dirt, getting as much purchase as possible. She could here the company of soldiers coming from the forest. Her fur bristled and she could practically feel the lighting crackling through out the air. Hige stood to her left, snarling lips brought back to revile white, dagger like fangs, a bushy tail sticking out and fur charged. He looked huge and Kris almost felt like giggling. Roukan meanwhile looked ferrous like he stepped out of some kid's nightmare. In human form he was kind of cute, with his glasses and mismatched jewelry, but wolf form with brisling fur, glittering fangs, and scars all over his face he looked anything but cuddly.
There! The first soldier stepped in and instantly the pungent smell of fear rose into the air. Kris pounced onto the poor young man, and with a great tearing sound ended his life with a bite to the throat. A rush of adrenaline over took the kill-happy wolf as she battled human after human. Beside her Roukan and Hige were also making mince meats out of the humans when a brown blur raced into the clearing, leaping over her. She looked up with a growl and saw black legs and a dark brown body.
"Klaue" she growled as she jumped on her next soldier, "What are you doing here?"
"What ya think? Fighting"
Kris could only grunt in response as her mouth was filled of a soldiers helm she was trying to burst.
Then they heard the howl
All four wolfs lifted their heads ears pointed and darted off, leaving bloody tracks in the field.
What was once been a beautiful clearing in a lush forest was covered in dead bodies and blood with four sets of wolf prints leading from the carnage.
Tobe: Now how was that chapter? Have you all thought of anything nice? Any Hoot I am having a poll out of our new pack which do you like more? Getsu the fateful brother and strong leader. Kuni the wise healer but playful friend. Roukan the talented fighter and daring adventurer. Reaven the loyal comrade and flirtatious… um flirt? KaYasha the bold headed moron and kind sibling. Mika the fun (but spastic) pal and great battler. Jess the nurturing and hilarious crewmember but a hard worker. Kris always wanting an adventure and a ballistic strong headed warrior. Klaue the stern silent but caring pack mate. Or me, Kawa, the wonderful, perfect –hit over the head by the others- fine the caring wolf who can't fight for her life. Then we have Hane WHO NO ONE CAN UNDERSTAND EXEPT FOR ME (but you have to admit he is hilarious), Barren the snotty snow owl and Chi the innocent cute fox cub!
Klaue: OKAY NOW FOLK LISEN UP! Now when you review Put Favorites: like that, then Un fav:
