In a wolf's eyes
WolfShadow01
First slave, now enemy
I just traveled from one place to another, for weeks. Some humans attacked me to defend themselves from a youkai, from me. I did not hurt them nor defend myself. After all, I was there because I was dangerous to them. I escaped from them, but I was badly injured. Some youkais attacked me too. I was an enemy for both of my kinds. I wished I could die. I kept with this miserable life, until I met with my master again.
I was searching for Naraku to destroy him, that way my master will be proud of me and let me go back with him. I just lived for my master now, all my instincts screaming to go back with him, but I couldn't while he didn't want me to. I found Naraku's castle and I got ready to attack him. It was not necessary to start the attack, he started it. I was fighting with all my power and will. It was a very difficult battle, but I had to win. Naraku was stronger than me, and I was soon lying on the ground badly injured.
"What brought you to my castle white wolf, why are you fighting me? I do not remember you" "What made you think I will answer you?" "You will" he started attacking me again, I didn't know what to do. I will surely have lost my life in that battle if my master hasn't arrived.
"Naraku!" my master started fighting with Naraku. I was happy for seeing my master again, but I didn't want him to fight Naraku for me, it was dangerous. I was worried about him, and then I discovered he was not fighting to save my life. He hadn't even seen me.
Both Naraku and my master were fighting with a rage and hate I have never seen before. I was obvious they hated each other.
Naraku had some injuries I have made, and that gave my master some advantage. The battle was difficult, and long. I saw my master's friends and they saw me, but they were busy trying to save their pathetic human lives. Some youkais were attacking them, some hundreds of youkais. I should have never done what I did. I ran to them in my wolf form, I helped them, I saved their lives. I was injured, but I could still kill some worthless youkais.
My master was the one with real problems. He was injured and fighting Naraku. I tried to help, but there were too many youkais and I had to protect the humans.
"Thanks Aika" said Kagome; I have saved her from a coming youkai. "No problem Kagome, use your arrows and open a path for me please. I need you to destroy the youkais between us and master Inuyasha please" For one moment, I forgot about my pride by asking for help of a human "Course" Se did it, now I was free to help my master, but it was too late. He had lost the battle, but I could still do something for him. I ran to him, took him with my teeth and ran away before Naraku could kill me. "I will discover who are you and we will meet again, white wolf" said Naraku, before leaving too.
The humans came as fast as their pathetic human legs allowed them to. They took my master, and started bandaging and taking care of him.
They made a camp in the forest that night. I slept outside of the camp, but still close to my master. I watched him all night. I didn't want him to die, even if that meant my freedom. There are just two ways a wolf can be free again: If its master dies or if the wolf decides to rebels and kill its master. Rebelling was not usual, our loyalty instinct doesn't let us betray our masters.
My master was fine next morning, he started waking up. He looked at everyone to check if the humans were not wounded. When he looked in my direction, he was very surprised. "What are you doing here? I told you to leave" "I did, but then you saved me again" was he playing with me or what? He seemed not to remember. He didn't. "What?, I didn't do it" "Yes you did" "No, I didn't. All I remember is fighting Naraku and almost dying" "That was before I ran to you and took you to get away from there. You almost lost your life. You could at least thank me" I couldn't believe it, he hadn't came to rescue me, he just wanted to fight his enemy. "Well, thanks Aika. Now, leave!" he said with a sarcastic voice "Fine!. You won't see me again....at least not like your slave" I was more than furious. I was very proud of myself, and he had just hit me in my pride. I would never forgive him for that. From now on, Inuyasha and the entire white wolves pack were enemies, including their leader, the storm wolf. I had rebelled, I was free. "What do you mean?" "What a stupid dog you are. From now on, we are enemies, along with your humans and my wolves" "What?! It was not for you to get that angry" "Too late, dog. I am not angry, I am furious. You all should thank heavens that I won't call a storm today" That made him get angry too "If you want us to be enemies, so it will be. But it will be just between us, no humans and no wolves" "What made you think I would fight without my pack. They could kill you and your humans in a few seconds" I was now at a prudent distance from him and the humans. "Don't force me to kill you. You have saved our lives and fought on our side. You have been our team mate. I don't want to kill you Aika" Team mate, and I thought I was his friend "Ha! As if a dog hanyou could kill me. You're forgetting who am I lord Inuyasha. I am the storm wolf, the white wolves' leader. You are not as strong as me" I said in my usual proud position. I would kill him if it's necessary to recover my pride and freedom, to execute my revenge. "Fine, the next time we meet, we will be enemies Aika" "As you wish my master" I said in a sarcastic voice. Then I got away, running again, alone again. But this time, I was running with a specific direction. I was going back to the mountains.
