Part 2
She had just begun to convince herself that she would be fine, when the sound of twigs snapping beneath approaching footsteps caused her heart to sink just seconds before the beam from Shishio's flashlight settled on her from above.
"Ha! There you are. Looks like we took a little tumble now, didn't we." Her former date turned stalker taunted as he began to slowly make his way down the incline.
He sounded smug, as if he thought that he had her where he wanted her...which, in truth, he pretty much did.
"No, please! Leave me alone!!" Misao pleaded, but to no avail.
Shishio reached her in no time at all and soon she found herself hauled up, her tank top crumpled in his tight fist as he lifted her completely off of the ground.
"I don't think so, bitch. You and I have some unfinished business to attend to." Shishio purred next to her ear before licking it, causing Misao to shudder in disgust.
Shishio shifted, his feet shuffling just slightly on the uneven, damp ground plastered with leaves beneath his feet. Something was moving in the darkness around them. He hadn't mistaken the rustling sound. He tightened his grip on the girl's shirt as she continued to struggle. He turned to her momentarily, and slapping her with his free hand to shut her up. He couldn't hear with all her blubbering.
The action was momentarily successful in quieting her but he was to discover she was stubborn as she began to fight him again. Just as he was about to slap her once more he heard something again. This time it was something far less innocuous then a misplaced rustle in the trees.
Rather it was a sinister, low growl that rumbled in the darkness. The sound of a predator observing it's prey, something about to strike. It was a vicious sound that preceded the bite of sharp teeth into flesh and the spilling of blood. He felt a chill run up his spine, his grip on Misao loosening.
*~*~*~*~*~*~*
Misao's head snapped back at the vicious slap Shishio dealt her. Her mind was sent reeling for a moment before it cleared again and she resumed her struggle. She was on the verge of opening her mouth to scream again, despite her knowledge that it was fruitless, when she heard it. A low, animalistic growl that she knew just had to have come from some sort of creature. No human being could have sounded as deadly as this. A bear, perhaps? Or a mountain lion? No, this sounded more like a dog's growl than anything else.
She felt Shishio tense and watched as his head turned ever so slowly to scan the pitch black forest around them. She too turned, wondering what gave him pause. Whatever it was, she was thankful for it.
Misao gulped as her eyes barely made out the pair of amber orbs hovering in the blanketing darkness only a yard away. What...what is that? she thought, a sense of fear creeping up her spine more intense than the one she had felt before. Oh Kami, please no. It's....it's a wolf!
Misao felt her breathing quicken. Everything seemed suddenly sharp, her sight, her hearing, and her heartbeat…
A moment later, it was a blur. She felt the impact of being pushed, but couldn't be certain of what it was only that it was force enough to topple her clear over onto the ground.
Near her, Shishio too went over, his dark form seemed to merge with that of the dark beast that had been watching them. She was frozen in abject terror listening to the sounds of a rumbling battle so close it almost rang in her ears.
The ripping cloth, the snapping of teeth, the hiss of human pain. She was tempted to cover her ears, to drag herself to her feet to run, but what if it noticed her then and chased her? What if it was going to kill her once it was done with Shisho?
Not particularly wanting to find out, Misao tried to haul herself to her feet again. And again she felt the sharp pain shoot up her leg and fell to the ground in a heap, her hands clutching her leg in an attempt to ease the agony. Damn it! She must have twisted something. Hopefully nothing was broken, but she didn't take the time to feel the bone and make sure. Instead, she concentrated on dragging herself away from the sounds of the screaming and the growling coming from way too near her for comfort.
She had only managed to get a few meters in distance, when the sound of struggling stopped and only the sound of footsteps hastily retreating and painfilled screams could be heard. Shishio's cries faded as he fled the vicinity, leaving Misao all alone. Or was she?
Misao chanced a glance back, her eyes squinting to see in the scant light provided by the moon's glow. What she saw, when she was able to make it out, caused a shocked gasp to be ripped from her throat.
A wolf was what it was, she thought, staring in awe at the awesome creature as it stared at her from some distance away. Yet it could not be an ordinary wolf, she thought, staring. She could only now see it as its silver mane gleamed in the shaft of moonlight under which it had moved into. Had the predator decided not to hunt her? Was this a game? Would it spring upon her the moment she moved like a cat with its captive mouse? She swallowed hard in dreadful anticipation, but nothing happened.
Nothing.

Buffybot76: Weird, I know. But hopefully an interesting weird. Well, here's the next part of the story, how do you guys like it? I know that this probably doesn't make sense at the moment, but please be patient. All will be explained in further chapters. Besides, this *is* an AU fic so we can be forgiven somewhat, right? *sweatdrops*
