A/N: Hi again! Sorry these chapters are so short and take a long time! Have you noticed yet that I'm running around in circles with this story? Anyway, it will go somewhere!!! I promise, anyway, I don't own Princess Mononoke so don't sue. Now let the fun begin!!!
Chapter 6: What to Do?
Shadows danced on Ashitaka's eyelids. It was a calming dance and it almost brought Ashitaka back to sleep. He could hear birds chirp in the trees outside, far away. Far away? Wasn't he still with the gorillas…
"San!"cried Ashitaka. He jolted into a sitting position but then regretted doing so with the pain that followed within his arm. Ashitaka looked down at his left arm. It was clean and covered by some material letting his arm mend. A noise by his side brought his eyes up.
San looked at Ashitaka with worry apparent in her eyes, "Ashitaka, are you all right?"asked San.
"I'm fine. Now, how did I get here? And where are the gorillas?" asked Ashitaka in a great hurry.
"I brought you here when I found you surrounded by the gorilla tribe," explained San, "Ashitaka, I have found out that the gorilla tribe have decided to declare war against my wolf clan."
"I know, they told me," said Ashitaka. Ashitaka struggled to stand up and winced at the pain it brought. San stood and helped Ashitaka stand.
"What can we do?" asked San. She sighed and walked out of the cave. The wind picked up and brushed through her hair. "We only have my brothers." San dropped her head in frustration.
"You have me," said Ashitaka, walking out onto the platform where San stood. "And I'm sure Iron Town will help. They don't want to loss this mountain either."
San looked at Ashitaka in disgust, "How could you say that?! They will expect to have the mountain for themselves if they fight for us. They will not help us."
Ashitaka looked pleadingly at San, "Well, what do you expect to do then? I know you won't ask for help from them because of your pride, not their greed."
San couldn't take it anymore. All of this new information; the war, and her new found love... San jumped down from the platform and ran through the woods.
"Wait, San!" said Ashitaka. He was about to jump after her but the aching pain in his arm told him not to follow. Ashitaka sighed deeply; this wasn't going to be easy.
