Azukie: Well, the one review I got on my first chapter was,… well.
Kittu: It sucked! They told you to delete the story!
Azukie: SHUT UP! Well, yeah I had a pretty angry review, but that person clearly doesn't understand the meaning of fanfictions.
Neko: Do you?
Azukie: Hey! I did get some good reviews though…
Neko: Yeah, two of them were mine.
Azukie: So what? I did get other reviews. Hope everyone who reads this chapter likes it. .
A howl rose up from ahead of them. Kyo turned to see what it was a white wolf, positioned at the end of the winding drive. He turned to look behind him and realized that where Sumi had transformed was one of curves that hid the mansion The wolf on the rock gave a return howl and suddenly there were no wolves in view, save the white wolf.
"Kogiro," Azukie said. "And the timber wolf on the rock was Rotico, the alpha, but they all follow Kojiro when he takes over."
"What made them disappear so fast?"
"Human." Said Azukie "there must be a human at the gate; Kojiro,"
"Yes Nii-san?"
"Call for them to open the gate, send Okamai and Rinku to meet our visitor."
"Of course." Another howl, then a flaxen wolf followed by a black wolf with brown patches raced down the drive. Kyo saw Kojiro trot into the house that had just been revealed.
"So how come the wolves didn't do that when we came in?" Said Kyo, who by now was very confused.
"Because they don't have to." Azukie led him up the steps and through the doublw front doors. Kojiro was standing at the base of the stairs. Kyo looked about him and was surprised that her house looked a lot like the Sohma estate. "This way." Azukie said as she led him down the hall, Kojiro at her side. The house seemed to be a maze, with doorways that had locks and odd handles. A language he didn't recognize labeled the doors. At the end of one of the many hallways they came to yet another of the rooms. The handle seemed to be welded of silver and there was a design on the door of a panther and a crescent moon. "My seal." Azukie said simply, and touched a keypad with more of the foreign symbols on them and the door unlocked. Inside a magic circle was glowing on the floor. Bookshelves lined the walls and various files we scattered about the many desks. Five computer monitors were on one wall, each holding a different program displayed on it. On yet another table was a 3D map of the mansion and there were several colored dots moving about.
"What's all this stuff?" asked Kyo, putting his hand through the map and watching the dots move across his hand, finding that the light went right through him.
"That is a locater map. Each of those little dots is someone on this property. Look here," Azukie said pointing, "That's you, and there's our little human friend." Kyo stared at the orange dot representing himself, then watched the newcomer.
"My name's on that dot." He said.
"Yes. As soon as your name is spoken inside the barrier you have it applied to your dot. Ah, our human has spoken theirs, Kagura. Do you know her?"
Azukie: Wow, this chapter was kinda short…
Neko: Ladies and gentleman, the understatement of the year!
Azukie: Neko I'm gonna clobber you one of these days!
Kittu: PLEASE REVIEW! SEE YA NEXT TIME!
