-----------------------------
The pain was all he could feel throughout his whole body. Every muscle, every breath, every heartbeat. He wanted to scream, to let all his pain out, but it remained a secret. He knew the pack was still a little curious why he was acting like this. The anger towards the people he knew and cared about. Especially what he had said to Toboe.
Hige could still tell that Toboe hurt on the inside from what he had just said. He didn't mean to really hurt him that bad. All he wanted was for him to shut up for once. He could hear him behind him whining about how his cheek hurt to Kiba. If only he would shut up again!
Hige stopped and turned to look at Toboe. He wanted to say sorry for saying what he had said but instead the opposite came from inside his mouth. "Would you shut up again? I'm so tired of hearing you complain about every single little thing." He still remained looking at Toboe who starred back at him along with Tsume and Kiba.
Tsume looked at him as though he had been switched with some other body while Kiba starred with wonder of what had happened to the always-smiling person. Instead, he acted as if every person in the world was out to get him. Toboe just starred back with an evil look of vengeance in his eyes.
"Why are you acting as though Toboe's out to kill you?" Kiba asked.
Hige turned his head and looked at Kiba wondering what he had just said until it hit him. "Hey if you want to have the same cheek as Toboe, keep talking!"
Kiba walked forward as he said, "You know what? I'm sick of you yelling at everyone when it's everyone else who is trying to help you!" He was now just a foot in front of Hige looking at him right in the eye.
"Hey don't start anything." Tsume warned with Toboe at his side looking a little worried at what was happening. The last thing Tsume wanted was a hurt wolf, precisely Hige, having to wonder with them. He knew Kiba would hurt Hige without even thinking about what he would be doing. Hige wouldn't be able to stand up to him without getting hurt. Definitely with the condition he was in.
Hige didn't think anyone knew how he was feeling, but Tsume knew. He knew how each breath ached in Hige's body. How every step wanted to make him scream, and how every sound he heard made him want to die.
"You know what, I'm going to start something." Hige said smirking at the other person standing before him. "And I'm going to make sure Toboe will remember to keep quite!"
Kiba took one last look at Hige before he took a strong and fast swing at Hige making him fall to the ground before HIge even realized what had just happened. Just as before he felt the sudden sharp pain floating throughout his body making him gasp for un painful breaths. Kiba then threw himself onto Hige and started hitting him again. The only thing for Hige to do was to swing back at him to defend himself in any way possible.
Toboe just looked in horror at what was happening. One swinging at the other with the other swinging at him. His whole entire time traveling with them he never suspected anything like this would happen. Not only where they swinging at each other, they were causing each other to bleed heavily from scratches and bloody noses and lips.
Finally Tsume rushed over and pulled Kiba off of Hige who fell to the snowy floor. Lying on his hands and knees, Hige coughed up the blood that drizzled down his throat. He heard the footsteps of Kiba fade into the distance as he continued walking on. The pounding would stop, then continue each time Hige thought it was gone. Sighing, he shut his eyes tight and wished for the pain to go away. His lungs ached, his heart hurt, his head and his body hurt too. Especially his heart. Not physically, but emotionally for everyone had seemed to turn on him just now.
After a moment of Hige just sitting there with his eyes shut, Tsume surprisingly knelt down and picked up Hige to a standing position to get him to continue the journey. After lifting him up he continued walking and motioned him to follow. Toboe ran uneasily by Hige then to Tsume to walk on. Hige finally started walking but placed himself in the way back of the group and watched them walk following them step by step.
----------------------
The pack finally stopped and Toboe managed to find a small cave where they would camp during the night. Hige found himself all alone in the corner of the cave not wanting to talk to anyone at the moment.
Toboe and Kiba sat by each other quietly whispering to each other and laughing every once and a while about some joke. Tsume sat by the entrance looking out and beyond to as far as he could see watching the wind and snow blow about. Now and then he would glance toward Toboe and Kiba praying they would try to be quieter for he didn't want to break another fight apart.
The wind from the outside sang softly as it blew in and out of the cave making everyone have a little tiny chill sweep through all the people. Toboe listened into the wind trying to listen if he could hear the tiniest sound of a meal lurking about. A few sounds of an unfrozen river chimed into Tsume's ears making him thirsty for water. He wished he could hear a prey that he could hunt for dinner. Any minute now Toboe would be crying for something to eat, which would cause Hige to burst into flames again. Meaning, another fight was bound to happen. First Toboe, then Kiba. Who next? Tsume definitely didn't want it to be him getting into the fight next for he would uncontrollably hurt Hige by accident.
Hige sat alone in the corner trying to concentrate on making the pain go away. He'd had many sicknesses before but non-like this. When he had a headache it didn't feel like you had stinging pains going in your head and out then start all over. If only he had listened to Tsume and not entered the ice area.
The only thing that really mattered to him was getting his friends back. He wished he could be sitting with them right now and talking to them. Not yelling at them and making them wonder what was wrong with him. If only he could have himself back just the way he was before he fell in the lake. The thought of the way things were different from the way they were before the incident made him feel as though he was completely alone.
He missed the way him and Toboe would sit and joke around like him and Kiba were doing now. The way he would always complain he was hungry and Kiba would always threaten for everyone to eat him. Then the way Tsume wouldn't care what happened only that everyone was safe. He missed it all.
He wished he didn't have such sensitive ears to sound right now. Then he would try to joke around even though he would have a stomach ace. He wished he'd listened to Tsume and just came back. He wished he had never said what he had said to Toboe. And that him and Kiba had never got in that fight. He wished none of this had happened.
Without thinking what he was doing, Toboe laughed out loud at what Kiba had just said. His laugh echoed in the cave and kept ringing. The next thing they heard was Hige scream and put his hands to his ears. Then they saw a white flash and Tsume by his side with a worried expression on his face.
"Hige!" Toboe yelled standing up. He looked in wonder what his laugh had just done to make Hige scream.
Tsume put his hand on Hige's back and looked into his eyes. He wasn't one to actually 'care' what was happening, but a laugh shouldn't put someone is pain like it was doing to Hige. "Hige what happened?" Tsume kept asking.
Hige dropped his hands from his ears and kept one eyes closed with the other opened. His head hurt so badly. It felt as if someone was stabbing him in the head. Sighing a shaky sigh, he leaned back against the wall and looked into Tsume's eyes.
"I...I...I don't know." Hige said turning his head away to look outside into the wind. "The noise, it made my head...hurt. I feel like I'm dying almost, that's how bad it hurts." Kiba starred in wonder almost understanding what he was saying. But something was missing that made the explanation clear. "Do you always feel like this when someone talks?" He asked willing to know.
Hige looked at him listening to Tsume scoot back a foot or so. "Yes. When ever I hear a voice, or a sound, I feel like this." He sighed a clear sigh and put his left hand on the side of his forehead and leaned against it.
Tsume sighed and looked at the outside then said, "I know what's wrong Hige." He said then looked at him in the eyes. "By any chance, do you recall swallowing any water that you fell into?"
Hige thought back to the other day then shook his head slowly. "No, not that I know of. I may have swallowed some while I was moving around but I was too...scared...to actually pay attention to anything else but getting out of the water. Why?"
"Because well, I've heard a myth once that when someone swallows an affected type of water, they will grow sensitive to noise, they can't eat, whenever they move they feel as if their muscles are being split apart and much more. I think that the lake you fell into was infected with that virus."
Everyone looked at the floor thinking of that's why his mood changed all of a sudden to noise such a laugh.
Everyone's thoughts were interrupted by Hige's soft and sad voice asking, "When will I heal, if I have this...virus?" He couldn't stand being like this anymore. The anger towards sound and the feeling of pain throughout his body each and every breath and move. It was more then he could bear if he had to go through it anymore.
"I'm not sure. A while I guess because it's pretty serious."
Hige looked at his feet with a sad sigh. He wouldn't be able to wait awhile. ---------------------------
In the morning everyone rose to the feel of sun in the cave. Hige managed to wake up without a fuse even though he was deeply sad. His muscles still ached as they did the days before. Each and every move. The sound of Kiba's heavy pants from exhaustion made him cringe from within. The sound of Toboe's sudden falls through the snow and the cringe of the snow as he climbed up. The way Tsume warned Toboe to keep up or they would leave him. It all hurt. Even his own breathing hurt. He couldn't pant. It hurt too much. He had to bear with being hot so he wouldn't be forced to have breathing pain.
He was starting to gain his appetite back. Good. He's been going days without food. He needed to eat. He had no idea how much longer it would be until everyone ate. Maybe another day. Another week possibly.
Finally the break the Toboe had been insisting on happened. Everyone stopped and Hige took that chance to lay in the snow and rest a little.
Toboe talked about going hunting later. Kiba talked about them having to wait until they found a good spot to rest for the night before they hunted. Tsume just told them to keep their voices down.
Everything got quiet after that point. At least for a while it would.
----------------------
I know they're OOC. I'm only on thee 4th episode of the show so I'm not too familiar with their characters. But sometimes I purposely made them out of character in her. Tsume a lot for instance. Well I need ideas because you may be able to tell but I'm out of ideas. It may have been a little boring this chapter. Sorry. So send me ideas what you think should happen to make this better. Thanks!
So anyways I'd better get to the story.
