A Sister's plight
It was dark outside but the kitsune didn't seem to notice or care at
all as she ran through the though the forest. If any one was out side in the forest beside drunken bandits, they
wouldn't anything very well and if they saw anything at all it was a
kitsune. Every once in a while she
would stop and sniff the forest ground, pick the sent up again and run on.
The kitsune stopped and smelled the trail. "It's
her sent alright, but mixed with bandits?" She ran on further and thought
to herself. "What would her trail be doing this close to the cliff face?"
She smelt the blood that was unfamiliar and
she knew that her sister had fought the bandits but they had pushed the battle
up hill. She followed the sent to the
edge of the cliff. She smelt the
bandits sent and her sister's sent far apart then and then suddenly close
together and knew they had lounged at her and she had fallen.
She changed back to her second form a half
fox half human girl and called down to the bottom of the cliff. "Sister? Where are you?" She didn't
expect a reply it had been two days since her sister had not come home and if
she had fallen off the cliff she would be sleeping like the dead.
She carefully climbed down the cliff
face. It would be almost impossible to scale
that cliff in her human form but the smoothness of the cliff made it to very hard
to climb do in second form. "Oh, well I can always go into fox form and find an animal trail to go
up." She looked around
and saw the place where her sister had lain and smelt an unfamiliar smell, a
hard metallic male smell that had taken her sister. She knew this because the smell and her sisters merged and her
sister had not moved from the spot she had landed in by herself. "Did he know she was a
were-creator? Or did he think she was
just a girl who had fallen? No If he
thought that our village was the closest so he would have taken her there. And why does the sent only stay there it
should at least go in some direction it starts here and ends here. Why?" "Ggrrr why is this so hard to figure out?" She growled softly. "One things for sure, he took her and
probably still has her." "Soozooryoku,
please get out of where ever you are and come home before he kills you! Hurry you only have four weeks left!" She whispered to the wind and the moon.
