Previously:

The female Omega laid her head on Kiba's neck glaring at her mate. Her eyes promising that he would pay for his comment later, "Go back to debriefing his old pack mates."

Zali looked at Tsume and Hige who were amused at the two older wolves. The earlier 'hostility' was now gone that had started out the conversation, "So, this is how you two turned out."

The older grey wolf snorted just as amused as the younger wolves, "With Kiba in our lives it has changed the dynamic of our relationship. She's more protective of him than I am." Tsume and Hige laughed lightly then turned to listen to Zali talking about the changes in Kiba then Mark talking about the other pack members. Tsume wasn't so sure about the pack being bigger but if they were Kiba's pack from this larger one then he would have to deal with it. Especially since the black wolf seemed to have glued himself to the white. It was clear to the scarred wolf; he and Mark were going to have to learn to get along. He did not look forward to that one little bit.

Now:

Dream:

"Wolf."

The white wolf shot off the ground and looked around fearfully. 'No…he's back.'

"Kiiiiibaaa." The man's voice called out from the darkness. Kiba looked around frantically, his ears moving just as frantically to pin point the voice. The wolf did not like how the man called his name. He whimpered when he couldn't find it. For some reason now the whimpering felt off, like that wasn't how he usually acted. "She is still waiting." The voice at this point tried to sound comforting.

The gold eyed wolf shook his head and walked backwards, "No, leave me alone." He looked to the left, "Please, leave me alone."

"Kiba." The girl's voice called out echoing out in the darkness. He didn't feel as bothered by her voice as he did the man's. "Kiba, hurry this one is trapped."

"I…I can't. I…It's not the…right time."

"Wolf, you know she needs you. How can you make her wait?"

The white furred wolf shook his head then skirted away from his original spot when if felt like he was touched, "I…I don't…I don't have to answer to you." He really tried to sound brave and authoritative but he just came out sounding like a frightened puppy.

"She needs you." An oval appeared in front of him this time showing a room with a bunch of machines and a large glass ball full of some kind of clear liquid. In the center of it the person was blurry but it was clear that they were stuck in there. "Do you see now?"

"I…can't…n…not yet. It's not…time yet." Kiba felt like crying. It hurt him to see the person trapped the way they were. He felt he wasn't doing his job to protect the woman in side the liquid. "Please, leave me alone."

"Wolf the longer you take the long she stays in there."

"No! You will not rush me! I need to take my time. I'm sorry but I can't." He closed his eyes and turned his head away when he heard her crying out for him, "I'm…so sorry but I just can't."

Dream End:

Kiba shot to his paws then ran off to the edge of the pack startling his family, mini pack, and the three extra ones. Skidding to a stop at the edge he hung his head, 'Why? Why me?' He let himself fall to lying on his stomach and whined, 'Why? I don't understand. Why is he trying to rush me? Who is he? How is he doing this? How can he reach into my dreams like this? Why does he scare me?' He covered his snout as he heard his mother's frantic paws headed his way with other's. He recognized Mark's and his father's but the other three… Gold eyes looked at the three behind his parents. His heart was still racing from the dream but his vision clouded as he remembered why he was asleep in the first place. He saw images of the three wolves with him. The small wolf and person was still blurry from the group. Some of the memories he already had cleared up their blurriness, but then there was so much more added to his mind. He saw him and the three of them traveling through a desert, in a forest, in a city where the grey wolf and himself attacked each other. The fluffy one gave him a hot dog. Them eating as a pack from a dead caucus. Kiba himself shoving an icicle down a machines gun barrel to protect the grey one with the scar while he was injured. There were so many memories, so much more than he had been expecting. Getting up he stood next to his black furred best friend looking at the two intently, "Who are you? I see you but I don't hear any names. Why do I have so many memories with you?"

The grey furred one laughed lightly and shook his head, "Even in this life nothing can be simple with you can it?" This statement confused the white furred wolf making his tilt his head curiously. "We are two of your original pack in the past life before the half wolf, her master, and the other two humans joined us at the end of our journey."

"Half wolf…" Kiba pranced on his paws for a second before asking, "Does that mean you know the man with the half wolf? The man was carrying some sort of gun. The half wolf was female; she looked like she had black but dark blue fur."

The brown one looked at the one with the scar on his chest, "The wind was really wasn't going the right way. He saw Blue but she didn't see him."

Mark shook his head and looked at the white furred wolf, "Wait, you mean the hunter and his pet dog that walked where we were resting for a bit?"

Kiba nodded and continued to look at the new wolves waiting for his answer. The grey furred wolf gave a brief description of the man, "Is he the one you were asking about."

"Yes, I saw him. I wanted to talk to him but…" The white furred wolf sighed, "I was…lost in a blurred mess of memories. By the time I came too they were already gone. Mark telling me he had been trying to get my attention for about half an hour."

"To be honest the reason she didn't seen him is he was laying on the ground and partially hidden by a rock when she was looking around. I caught sight of the two of them and went to tell Zali and Cole we needed to move but…" The red eyed wolf looked at his best friend who looked away sheepishly, "…blur brain over here to chose that time to be stuck in memories."

The grey wolf laughed lightly, "I remember when I went through that. It definitely chose the worst moments to come back." He looked at Kiba remembering that he had not once called them by name yet, "I'm Tsume by the way, and the chunky one next to me is Hige."

"I'm not chucky." The fluffy one growled at the other then looked at Kiba, "But don't be surprised if you hear me get called Hugo. It's my dog name. In all technicality I am 'owned' as a cover. That's why I am wearing a different collar than you are used to seeing me in."

Kiba looked alarmed, "The crazy woman! You have to take the collar off!"

"Whoa easy there Kiba. This is not the same collar. I had it removed and this is a new collar. I am owned by Hubb and Cher Laboski. Toboe is their other dog, though he is sometimes called Toshiro as his dog name."

"Y…you're sure?" The white wolf asked.

"Yes. I have even been checked for additional tracking devices."

Mark looked confused, "Hu?"

"In our past life I had this specific collar that led a woman named Jagara to wolf packs that got them killed. We had no idea what it really was till the last town on our journey. Suffice to say I got my memories when I was with her." Hige closed his eyes and shook his head as if trying to get rid of the bad memories, "It…was not a pleasant awakening so to speak."

Mark winced, "Yikes, sounds rough."

"Yeah, it was." Hige smiled though, "Now I am free of her. So all is good now."
