Hey thanks for all the great reviews I've gotten so far. They're wonderful.
But anyways, sorry I couldn't make this chapter as long as the last one I
did. The words didn't come to me as well as other chapters. It took me
around 5 days to write this when the 1st chap only took me around one.
So read and review and tell me what you think. Thanks!

(HIGE'S POV)
"Who's Konis?" Tsume asked.
I looked at him blankly for a second wondering what he meant. Then it hit me. Konis? What did he know about Konis? I swallowed hard as I begun to ask, "How do you know about Konis?" I could feel everyone stare at me. All their eyes melting through every inch of my body.
"How do I know about Konis?" He asked as he leaned against the railing of the ramp looking at me with his intensely cold eyes. "I saw you talk to him today. It's kind of obvious who he is. He's definitely not a wolf and you two are friends. Wolfs and humans don't mix." He said sort of giving me a smirk.
My anger level burst way up from that smirk. Who does he think he is? Without thinking, I yelled, "How would you know humans and wolves don't mix when you were the one using them all your life? You're so damn desperate you had to use humans to help you!"
Before I even realized what had happened, his fist went right in my face knocking me back so I was looking straight up at him. He looked down on me with an evil glare. I guess I shouldn't have said that. He looked as though he was about to attack me again when Toboe loomed over me. Damn runt. He should stay out of this. He always thinks he can do something, but really, he's a small runt who can't change a thing.
I glanced up at Toboe trying to glare at him so he would get out of this. One thing I was sure of, if I can't get him out of this from anger he might get hurt from being hit. While looking at him, out of the corner of my eye, I was surprised at what I saw. Kiba just sat there; glaring at me like I had just killed someone he had loved or cared about. Why? Wouldn't he be beside Toboe, trying to stop Tsume? But then, he is one to hate humans. He hates them like he would hate seeing his pack being killed in front of his own two eyes. Even though I'm about to get killed by Tsume.
"Don't hurt him!" Toboe yelled as Tsume shoved him out of the way. Surprising how offended I made Tsume. Well, then again, I did call him dependant enough to turn to humans. Tsume was just about to punch me again when I moved out of the way dodging his attack. His fist missed my head by an inch and went straight into the cold steel floor. He growled from the pain and lunged at me again. I didn't want to really fight back. I just would dodge his attacks then wait for him to come back then dodge it again.
I dodged another one of his blows, which landed only centimeters from my face. Ok, he's starting to get closer. He came back at me again and this time, out of his luck, struck me in the face hard enough to send me flying back.
Lying on my side for a second, I listened to him stand still, breathing heavily. I didn't want to move to provoke him again. Waiting until he finally walked away, I stood up and looked to my fellow companions. Only Toboe faced me, the rest looked away like I never existed. I grumbled to myself, and then walked down the stairs. I couldn't stay here for right now, besides, I still had about a day left to walk around before I had to come back. That and I had to meet Konis.
I walked towards the exit of the building. As I walked out, I realized, what was happening right now. A feeling came to me I hadn't felt for years. A human feeling that only the humans would feel. Loneliness. And sadness. It hurt. It didn't hurt like someone just stabbed me; it felt as though I had just been punched in my heart. This couldn't be happening.
I stopped and looked back to the building. I couldn't hear them talking or even moving. But I could hear them breathing. I could also hear myself breathing, something that caught my attention. It wasn't the sound of my normal breathing, it was shaky and I couldn't control it. Quickly looking away from the building, I ran. I didn't stop. I couldn't even see where I was going.
Running into a few people, I felt their ruff hands shove me to the earth's cold floor. Cold. Everything was cold. After lifting myself up, I looked around and saw where I was. I was at the same place where I had met Konis. In the alley where he had been so kind to me. He didn't know what I was I think. He thought I was some dog. A dog! How could I look like a dog? Was it because of my collar?! Was it the fact I didn't attack him?! Why did he think I was a dog? Am I so low to the earth that I look like a dog? Do I look so gentle and caring enough to be a dog? Who does he think I am? I'm not a low life dog wondering the street looking for food from some human! I am a wolf! Not a fucking dog.
No! I fell to the floor and changed to wolf form. I couldn't be acting like this. He just thought I was a dog. No big deal I guess. Looking to the people walking by, I watched them just quickly glance at me and continue walking. They didn't know. They didn't know who I really was. Did I really look like a dog? Is this who I am? What am I?
Lying down, I closed my eyes and thought back to my pack. I wasn't sure what had just happened. I wasn't sure if they pushed me out of the pack or if they just wanted me gone for a few minutes. I wasn't sure about anything. Not even sure who I was.
I could hear the sound of Jaker's bell ringing loudly in my ears. I could hear Konis yelling loudly above the crowd for people to buy some fresh hotdogs. I opened my eyes and I could see him walking. Walking away from me like he never saw me. I guess he shouldn't have. I look like a dog. He sees dog's everyday. So I shouldn't just stand out to him. Just as I thought he would walk by without even glancing at me, he looked towards the alley and smiled.
I looked up at him and looked away. I couldn't accept the food from him. But he walked over to me and stuck the food in my face. Damn kid. I could smell the aroma of the food lingering inches away. Drooling, I looked to the food and grabbed it as quick as lightning. Shocked, he lunged back and landed on his back.
I dropped the food and looked at him. I hope I didn't hurt him. He looked up at me and smiled again. I gave a wolf smile back and walked over to him to see if he was okay. He only laughed and used my back to balance him as he got up. After he was standing on his feet, I went back to the food I had dropped and ate it as quick as I could.
He petted me on the head and walked away. Guess he had to go back to work again. Well, I would see him around noon. Watching him walk away, I ran off into the crowd of people and began running with all my speed and might. I could smell Kiba in the distance. Running in his direction, I continued to dodge people who appeared in my way. A little kid in front of me, bent down to pick up her doll she dropped, I would have dodged her but too many people were right beside her, instead I leaped over her.
Kiba's scent was getting closer now, he was almost in front of me. Now I could see him, he was looking in my direction. He seemed, curious to what I was doing. But then he grew angry and looked away. Well, it's not like I care anyways, I ran right past him as quick as a heartbeat. I don't know why I'm running so fast. I guess because of the fact that I never get to run where I like. I'm always following Kiba's lead. For now, I can run where I like.
I slowed my pace and stopped. Looking up, I saw a brick building directly in front of me. Dead end. I looked behind myself and saw no one behind me. Going back to human form began to walk back to where I had begun running.
Sniffing the air, I could now smell Toboe walking somewhere near here. How did he get so close to here? I could smell his scent strongly, but one thing stuck out about his scent, his fear. I wonder why I can smell his fear so much.
Looking back to where I was walking, I got worried and jogged to where I could smell him. Now that I was in human form, I could see much higher up and I would be able to tell if I saw him. Looking above the human's heads, I could see him wondering the streets bumping into people here and there. He looked scared out of his mind. He turned his head and saw me standing there with a confused look on my face.
He all of a sudden ran towards me and practically jumped in my arms. "Hige! Oh man Hige I'm so glad you're here!" I stood still trying not to move because if I did he would surely fall out of my arms. Finally, I dropped him to the floor and looked down at him.
(Writer's POV)
"What's wrong runt?" Hige expected him to be so happy for finding him here. But what he told him shocked him to no ends.
"The soldiers that chased us into the city, they invaded the building we were staying in! I saw Tsume get shot in his arm before he made me run away from the area. I don't know what happened to him." He sobbed as he sat on the ground not looking at Hige.
Hige looked down at him with wide eyes shocked as hell wondering where he would be. "Toboe come on." He said as he helped Toboe to his feet. "We have to find Kiba." Toboe stood by Hige still shaking while he let Hige help him up. "Can you stand?" Hige asked looking down to Toboe. Toboe shook his head and watched as Hige stood in front of him with his back towards him. "Jump on." He said as he offered Toboe a piggyback ride.
Toboe nodded and jumped on his back and held onto his shoulders tight. Hige ran through the crowd of people sniffing the air trying to find his scent. When he caught it, he followed it until he finally saw him running in the distance. "Kiba!" Hige shouted trying to get his attention.
Kiba stopped running and looked at him trying to decide what to do. He looked behind himself and ran over to Hige. "They're all over the place Hige. And they've got Tsume." Hige looked at Kiba and nodded. They all knew they would have to hurry and find a place to hide.
All of them running, Kiba on his own and Hige carrying Toboe on his back, they all set forward to find a place where they would be able to hide until they could get Tsume. Toboe looked behind himself and saw a few soldiers running at them. "Hurry!" He yelled.
Kiba lead them to an intersection where a few sewer entrances lay in the middle of the street. Bending down, he yanked it off and helped Toboe lower himself down then lowered himself down knowing Hige could do it just fine. From up above he could hear Hige mumbling to himself about something like a 'sensitive nose'.
He waited with Toboe until Hige jumped down pinching his nose with his fingers. "Damn this place stinks." He hissed quietly.
"Well it's better then being up there," he said as he started walking down the dark tunnel. As he walked with Toboe then Hige behind him, their feet would make the sounds of water splashing from each step.
Hige continued complaining about the scent as Toboe often asked if Tsume would be all right and if they would find him as Kiba remained quite about everything. He wasn't sure what was going to happen in this city, but he was sure they would find Paradise with Tsume even if it cost their lives to get him back.
Sorry. I wasn't able to make it longer. Please review! I want to know what you think of the whole entire thing so far. Give me a little ideas or something you might want to see happen.
So read and review and tell me what you think. Thanks!
