Luna growled as she bite down as hard as she could. The Black Wolf howled and then slammed against her with his full body weight. She cried out in pain and went stumbling away. She whimpered as she slowly stood up, but the Black Wolf growled and stepped on her chest, pinning her.
The pressure was lifted a moment later as Tsume slammed into the Black Wolf and sent him off her. "Luna?"
"I'm okay." She stood up slowly and whimpered. She wasn't sure if she had broken bones or if she was just bruised.
"Luna!" Sora ran up on her other side. "You okay?"
"I'm fine." Luna smiled at her friend.
"Let's tear this guy into pieces." Sora smirked and then went charging towards the Black Wolf. Kiba moved next to her with Hige and Blue not far behind. All four aimed for the Black Wolves vital areas.
"Luna?" Tsume brushed up against her.
"I've got this." Luna smiled and then the two of them went charging.
It was a flurry of fur. The Black Wolf may have been outnumbered but he had more muscles and more speed than the rest of them. His claws were also longer and seemed to be sharper. Luna felt those claws multiple times along her sides and her back. But she didn't stop fighting, neither did most of the others. And soon there was blood everywhere, from the Black Wolf. Even he couldn't hold up from multiple attacks.
With one anguished cry the wolf went stumbling away and then collapsed. It whimpered and tried to get up but collapsed again. Kiba growled and went in for the kill.
Luna barked out a slightly laugh and then whimpered and collapsed. She felt Tsume rub against her and looked at him. He was in pretty rough shape. He was missing chunks of fur in many places and he was still bleeding from multiple places. "Tsume." She leaned over and licked at one of his wounds. The blood was fresh.
"I'm okay." He looked at her. "We'll be okay."
Luna smiled weakly and rested her head against his neck. She felt extra tired suddenly. She looked over to see that she wasn't the only one. Many of the wolves looked just as bad. Luna watched as Cheza came walking towards them. She crouched down and rested a hand on Kiba's and Hige's sides. "Rest. You need your rest to get better."
"Luna!" Toboe padded over and looked down at her. Even he had scratches covering his side. Luna wasn't sure when he had joined the battle but she was sure that if they hadn't all fought they would have lost.
"I'm okay." Luna closed her eyes. Sleep… It was calling to her.
"Don't worry… You will all make it to paradise." Cheza whispered into their ears as Luna fell asleep.
